Allison Kaiser is off the Lexington Philharmonic Orchestra's beaten path.
Asked to pick a place to meet to talk about her new gig as executive director of the orchestra, Kaiser bypasses its offices, where she says her ear is glued to the phone, and the Phil's traditional performance home, the Singletary Center for the Arts.
Kaiser is settled into one of the purple seats in the black box theater at the Downtown Arts Center.
"This is where we are instituting one of our new concepts, 'Kicked-Back Classics,'" Kaiser says, referring to informal, conversational performances Nov. 18 and March 24 that will precede Philharmonic Classics concerts. "It will be a smaller event with the guest artists in an environment that is not as traditional as the Singletary Center."
Change is to be expected. With Kaiser's hiring earlier this year, there was a complete turnover in the orchestra's top leadership in less than two years. In April 2009, it hired Scott Terrell to succeed George Zack as music director. Then earlier this year, after executive director Peter Kucirko announced his retirement, Kaiser was tapped to replace him.
In taking the post, she has accomplished a rare feat in Lexington arts, moving from the top management post at one group to the same position at another.
Since 2003, Kaiser was executive director of the Lexington Art League, widely credited with taking a struggling organization and turning it into one of the city's most vibrant arts groups.
Kaiser did that, she says, by frequently employing ideas and inspiration from her years as development director for the New World Symphony in Miami.
"The New World Symphony was the most mind-opening opportunity I had in the arts," Kaiser says. "Working with someone as creative and visionary as Michael Tilson Thomas (the orchestra's music director) to make music something it had never been before was a huge learning opportunity."
Kaiser points out that the New World Symphony was developed as a "bridge" orchestra between the academic and professional worlds. With a non- traditional foundation, that gave the New World room to innovate to create new music and attract new audiences.
Implementation of some programs at the Art League — such as the Election exhibit in summer and fall 2008 and projects that were pursued in conjunction with groups like Habitat for Humanity and organizations that combat domestic violence — were direct manifestations of her work at New World, Kaiser says.
"As we started exploring the contextual aspect, that took us working with art more of our times," she says. "It showed how art can be a bridge between people and difficult topics, and that art is more than an object."
At the philharmonic, Kaiser says, she is taking over a solid organization with two distinct constituencies: "longtime, devoted supporters" and "an emerging base that is not invested in the way things were done but really wants to engage with orchestral music."
In addition to the Kicked-Back Classics events, Kaiser points to initiatives such as a new commissioning collaboration with the Chamber Music Festival of Lexington to engage a composer who will work with each group every other year. That concept gets a soft debut this year with the world premiere of the orchestral version of Daniel Thomas Davis' Book of Songs and Visions, which premiered as a chamber work at the festival in 2008.
There are also new initiatives in Classics series programming and ticket selling. Kaiser says season subscription sales are up 15 percent this season, primarily because of a "Pick 4" option that allows subscribers to choose four out of the eight season subscription concerts. While she has not looked at the demographics of that increase, Kaiser did say that the Jan. 22 Soul Celebration concert with Take 6 and Kentucky State University Gospel Ensemble is the top seller. It is one of several programs that has the philharmonic partnering with new organizations, including the Lafayette High School Chorale and University of Kentucky's AcoUstiKats for Friday's Romeo & Juliet concert and the Dec. 2 and 3 Messiah performances with the Lexington Chamber Chorale.
"I have always been impressed with the role the Lexington Philharmonic plays in this community," Kaiser says. "Under George Zack's leadership, it has been able to grow from a community orchestra to a professional group, and its success is something Lexington should be proud of."
But, like most orchestras, it was facing the reality that its core audience was eroding, and a natural replacement audience was not being developed as orchestral music plays a decreasing role in society.
"When they started talking to me about this position, they made it clear there was a desire and willingness to evolve beyond what has been," Kaiser said. "That has to happen to develop new audiences."
So, moving forward, expect to see Kaiser and the Philharmonic in more unusual places.

HALLANDALE -- Caustic radio talk-show host Neil Rogers brought his on-the- air battle against the elderly to this retirement community Saturday and was on the receiving end of the barbs he usually tosses out.
Rogers did his four-hour, top-rated WINZ 940 AM broadcast live from the Diplomat Mall in front of 500 mostly supportive people.
But he ran into some vocal critics, bitterly angry that he has accused Hallandale of being home to ``prunes`` responsible for ``some of the most revolting, subhuman behavior known to man.``
``I hope you never live to be a senior citizen,`` shouted Betty Elkin, 80, of Hallandale.
``I should live so long to see him dead. He stinks the way he talks about old people,`` Morty Gold, 76, said.
One sign held aloft in the crowd read: ``Goodyear wouldn`t send the blimp so they sent you instead.``
``He`s a flaming fairy, a faygeleh (Yiddish for homosexual),`` said Hallandale Vice Mayor Arthur ``Sonny`` Rosenberg. ``I`m 67 and in better shape then him.``
``Yeah, physically, but not mentally,`` Rogers shot back.
``You fat faggot,`` yelled Harold Schiff, 62, of Miramar. ``Why don`t you use your own name? Are you ashamed of being Jewish?``
``See what I`ve been saying?`` quipped Rogers, who said he changed his name because Nelson Roger Behalfer didn`t go over well on the radio.
At the side of the stage set up in the middle of the mall stood Rogers` 73-year-old mother, Mildred Behalfer. ``I`ll just be glad when he gets out of here -- the crazies,`` she said.

TOKYO — Japan's parliament has passed legislation criminalizing the camcording of pics in theaters.
Skedded to go into effect in August, the bill prohibits the use of any recording device in cinemas, with cops authorized to arrest violators. If convicted, pirates can be punished with up to ten years in prison or 10 million yen ($82,645) in fines or both.
In January a coalition of industry orgs, led by the Japan and International Motion Picture Copyright Association (JIMCA), submitted a statement to the government calling for anti-camcording legislation .
According to JIMCA exec director Yasutaka Iiyama, the new law "will make it significantly easier for the police to interdict pirate camcording."
According to a survey conducted by LEK Consulting for the Motion Picture Association, piracy cost the Japanese biz $742 million of potential revenue in 2005, with MPA member companies taking a $216 million hit.

Have women suddenly become a gaggle of reckless drivers? No…socioeconomic and demographic change have led to more women on the road.
Statistics tell the story you want them to tell. Stories in yesterday's Guardian, Telegraph and Metro illustrated this perfectly. Under the headlines such as 'Huge rise in women who drink-drive' they report that 'the number of women caught drink-driving has almost doubled in less than 15 years'. With one article describing the fairer sex as 'The female menace', they all reported figures from a recent survey by the insurers Direct Line and the transport charity the Rees Jeffreys Road Fund.
The figure behind the headlines is that while women 'accounted for nine per cent of drink-drive convictions in 1998', by 2012 this number had risen to 17 per cent. First off, while this eight per cent rise may be significant, it still leaves men responsible for 83 per cent of drink drive convictions. More importantly however, reporting this statistic without context is misleading. Analysis by the RAC shows that between 1995 and 2010, i.e. roughly the same time period as the drink driving statistic is taken from, the number of female motorists increased from 9.2 million to 16.3 million. This means that as a fraction of the total number of drivers, the number of women on the roads rose by 8.3%. In light of this, the eight percent rise in the total number of drink driving convictions going to women should hardly be surprising. This is not to condone drink driving, indeed 15% of all road fatalities in 2011 involved alcohol. It is merely to show that the recent rise in women convicted of drink driving is due to an increase in the number of women driving, rather than an increase in the recklessness of female drivers.
What's behind the rise in female drivers?
The large rise in women drivers stems from women becoming more economically active, having children later and living longer, healthier lives. According to the Department for Transport's National Travel Survey, in 1975 just 29% of women had a driving license, in comparison to 69% of men. In 2010 the number of women with a license had more than doubled to 66% while the number of men with a license had risen to 80%. The biggest rises in license ownership in recent years has been among older women. Between 1995 and 2010 the percentage of women aged 60-69 with a driving license increased 23 percentage points and the percentage of women over 70 with a license rose 20 points. If the trend of a rising number of female drivers continues, Britain could follow the lead of America where there are already more female than male drivers on the road.
Do men remain the real menace on the road?
Men remain far more likely to be involved in drink drive incidences than women. Department for Transport figures show that in 2011, twice as many men as women involved in an accident failed a breathalyser test, and that men are three times more likely to become a casualty in a drink driving accident. Drink driving is highest among young men: of those aged 20-29 who are involved in an accident, 12-13 percent fail a breathalyser test. This is in contrast to around 6% of women in this age category, the Department for Transport reports. In light of such startling figures the name 'The female menace' seems hard to justify.

Antidepressants are most probably prescribed by the doctors to the patients who are experiencing depression. Antidepressants are also used for the treatment of bipolar depression, OCD, PTSD, substance abuse, chronic pain syndrome, anxiety and eating disorders.
According to reports one out of every ten person is on antidepressants over the ages of 12. Antidepressants are the third common sort of authorized drug which is taken by the people between the ages of 18 to 44.
Long-term effects of Antidepressants on Brain
Many of the antidepressants have life threatening side effects. It is obligatory to consult a doctor and stay informed about the uses and abuses and its long and short term effects on health and brain. Antidepressants worked by attacking some assertive types of chemicals in the brain known as neurotransmitters that deals with moods and emotions. There are many types of antidepressants; most targeted neurotransmitters are Serotonin norepinephrine, and dopamine.

It is also used to treat anxiety, panic attacks, personality disorders and severe depression. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that is a related with feelings of comfort and happiness. It is a naturally produced chemical that lowers in the people with depression. The chemical changes caused by the antidepressants in the brain originate weight gain, gastrointestinal problems, headaches, dry mouth, mood disorders and emotional numbness. These symptoms are considered as normal and short term and it is not necessary that they will alter into long term effects. But it is necessary to take advice before using any SSRI's about their long term effects on body and brain.
Effects of Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRI's) on Brain
Some of the medicines when combined with SSRI's can cause many medical problems and brain changes such as tramadol which is used to treat pain blocks the reuptake of the brain chemicals known as norepinephrine and serotonin. SSRI's usage associated with the changes of the nerve cells in the brain and brings up the changes in behavior, acts and the way of feeling.

Prices offered on the SWFX are a combination of liquidity provided by the traders placing BID and OFFER orders on the SWFX marketplace (internal liquidity providers) and major banks, brokers and other marketplaces (external liquidity providers). The combination of internal and external liquidity providers allows clients to benefit from narrow spreads and deep liquidity. Clients of the SWFX marketplace can choose between consuming liquidity, by using standard orders and providing their own liquidity (acting as market makers) to other traders, by placing BID and OFFER orders. Together with other clients and external liquidity providers, Dukascopy Bank may add its own liquidity at SWFX' prices.
Notwithstanding the fact that the SWFX – Swiss FX Marketplace is an ECN, Dukascopy Bank is the counterparty of all its clients' trades executed on the SWFX. Dukascopy Bank sends orders to the interbank market in its own name for its own needs such as hedging exposures and/or testing validity of prices received from liquidity providers. Not all clients' trades necessarily result in hedging orders sent to the interbank market by Dukascopy Bank. In particular small trades cannot be hedged with external counterparties and therefore could hardly be executed without Dukascopy Bank's liquidity, since external counterparties may not accept trades under a certain minimum size. Also, to date, trades on binary options cannot be hedged. Dukascopy Bank hedges clients trades fully, partially or not in accordance with its hedging technology, needs and banking regulation.
Dukascopy Bank cannot guarantee that no conflict of interest may exist. However, clients of Dukascopy Bank are protected against unfair trading practices by the following protections:
When entering a conditional order you should pay attention to the current market price, the desired price and inequality sign (≤ or ≥) that you set up in your order. If the order price condition corresponds to the current market price then the order is executed immediately.
Example: current market price EUR/USD 1.3010, your conditional order is Buy if >=1.3005. In such case the order will be executed immediately.
Due to security reasons, orders can only be placed via the platform interface or by calling the Trading Support Desk line

Stop Order
A stop order is a pending order to buy or sell an instrument once the price of this instrument reaches a specified price, known as the stop price. When the stop price is reached, the stop order becomes a market order. A buy stop order is always placed above the current market price, while a sell stop order is placed below. Stop orders can be triggered either by the ask or by the bid price, thus giving traders more flexibility in execution control. If any slippage value is indicated by the trader, the stop order becomes a stop limit order. That is, if the stop order fails to execute within the specified slippage range, the order is automatically transformed into a limit order.
Limit Order
A limit order is a pending order to buy or sell an instrument at a specified level or better. A buy limit order can only be executed at the limit price or lower and triggered by the ask side, and a sell limit order can only be executed at the limit price or higher and triggered by the bid side. Limit orders may fail to execute because the market price may quickly bounce back from the limit price before your order can be filled.

OK, I am on day 9 Cold Turkey and I am feeling loads better for quitting. My skin is looking better and I have managed to go running three times this week.
I was sat here tonight thinking about smoking and how much time I have wasted in my life with smoking - How many things I have put off and more recently how much time I have spent outside when many of my friends were inside. I would always use it as an excuse to do or not do something. 'I'll do this and then I'll have fag' or 'I'll have fag, then I'll do some jobs' - Sound familiar??
I have wasted so much time with my stupid addiction to cigarettes, put off so many things and I really feel that now is the time to address this failure on my part.
I love reading this forum and it's good to know that we are all going through this together - Stay strong everyone!

Track to honor Lost in the Fog
ALBANY, Calif. - Golden Gate Fields will salute Eclipse Sprint champion Lost in the Fog, his owner Harry Aleo and trainer Greg Gilchrist on Saturday. A special DVD featuring each of the colt's victories will be given away, and career highlights will be shown throughout the day.
Golden Gate Fields has been swamped with requests about the video and had fans from as far away as Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey inquire about attending the day to pay their respects to the colt, who was euthanized on Sept. 17 after battling cancer.
Donations in the name of Lost in the Fog can be made to the Glen Ellen Vocational Academy, Northern California's only non-profit horse rescue and rehabilitation facility. The GEVA address is P.O. Box 2101, Glen Ellen, CA 95442.
"If it's something to help horses, I'm always for it," said Aleo, who has allowed GEVA to auction off pictures of the colt in the past.
Although Gilchrist said originally that Lost in the Fog's ashes would be buried at Southern Chase Farm, where he lived before Aleo bought him, Aleo said, "I hope to put him to rest at Golden Gate Fields. That's what I want. This is his home and where his fans are."
Golden Gate Fields has offered to bury the colt's ashes and will create either a plaque or statue of the colt, who won the hearts of Northern California fans during his brilliant career.
Bonfante questionable for Presidio
Trainer Steve Specht has nominated his star sprinter Bonfante to Saturday's $75,000 Presidio, but he may pass the one-mile turf race for Cal-breds, to run the following week in another $75,000 Cal-bred stakes, the $75,000 Fort Mason at five furlongs on the turf.
Had the order of the races been switched, he said he might have run in both but couldn't go a mile and then drop back to five furlongs.
He's not ruling out the Presidio, but the expected presence of El Don has him thinking about the Fort Mason.
Thirteen Cal-breds nominated to the Presidio, which could be a perfect prep for the Cal Cup Mile.
Somethinaboutlaura Cal Cup-bound
Trainer Jerry Hollendorfer said after Somethinaboutlaura's impressive four-length victory in Saturday's Pacific Heights at one mile on the turf for Cal-breds that she would make her next appearance at Cal Cup, probably running in the 1 1/16-mile Matron on the main track.
As good as the 4-year-old filly is on the turf, Hollendorfer thinks she might be even better on the main track. "She won a graded race (the Grade 2 A Gleam at Hollywood Park) on the dirt," he said.
Assistant returns after accident
Colleen Hartford, John Martin's assistant, has already returned to the track after being the victim of training accident at Bay Meadows on Thursday.
She was working the 4-year-old filly Alitalia when Lady Helm, a 2-year-old filly that had just completed a workout became spooked and ducked into her path along the rail.
"I had just come off the turn when I saw a group of horses, then somebody spun out," Hartford said. "If I hadn't been working her, we might have had time to avoid a collision. I don't think my filly even saw her, and we hit her in the back. I don't remember what happened, but when I tried to get up, I saw my filly lying there, and I knew she wouldn't make it."
Initial X-rays indicated Hartford might have suffered two compression fractures in her neck, but she said doctors told her she only had tiny fractures on the outside of her neck with no threat to her spinal column and two small ligament tears.
Jockey Frank Alvarado, who was aboard Lady Helm suffered bruised ribs.
"I'm thankful neither of us were hurt worse," said Hartford, who must wear a special collar on her neck for the next month.
Baze closing in on Pincay's record
Jockey Russell Baze won Sunday's final race, extending his streak to six days with multiple victories.
Since Sunday, Aug. 17 when he won the final three races on the card, Baze has won 16 races to bring his career total to 9,461 only 69 shy of Laffit Pincay Jr.'s record of 9,530 victories.
Best juvenile race of year
Golden Gate's three weekday cards have interesting races this week.
On Friday, the best 2-year-old race of the year in Northern California will pit debut winners Vicarino, an Aleo-Gilchrist runner who toyed with opponents at Santa Rosa, and Baltimore Drive, who won his debut for trainer Chris Paasch at Saratoga. Both colts were $150,000 purchases at Ocala this winter.
Two-year-olds will also be in Wednesday's feature in a $40,000 starter allowance at six furlongs. Gary John, third in the Cavonnier at Santa Rosa, is the likely favorite.
Diabetes screenings
Horsemen and fans can participate in a special diabetes screening at the Golden Gate Fields track clinic. Appointments for the two-hour test, which includes a follow-up examination can be made at the clinic on the grandstand level.

Where prominence takes them to show off their 'lush lifestyles',normal people usually use them to document their movements on social media sites. Hence,I assume figuring out the 'selfie' bent being talked about wouldn't have been that hard to consider. Legend has it,too much of anything is bad for you. Tossing around a similar situation,could your selfie addiction be a sign of mental illness?
More than a mental disorder,it is more of a foolish reality of the times we live in and like icing add the toxin of selfie-hood.Not only do individuals obsessed with taking selfies tend to feel their personal lives and psychological well-being are damaged, but they may feel that relationships with others are impaired.Not forgetting experts have linked selfies with mental illness and have suggested that people regularly searching for the perfect angle from which to portray themselves could in some cases be infirm.
As per evident studies,'Selfies frequently trigger perceptions of self-indulgence or attention seeking social dependence that raises the 'damned-if-you-do and damned-if-you-don't' spectre of either narcissism or very low self-esteem.'As much as it rings a bell, I believe that excessive or provocative taking of selfies is a form of 'acting out' in young people and can be a cry for help,worthy of being brought into light.Seeking attention probably being its primitive cause.
The big problem with the rise of digital narcissism is that it puts enormous pressure on people to achieve unfeasible goals, without making them hungrier.While people may feel that comparing selfie taking to addiction is too dramatic, it is a scientifically sound claim that few, if any, mental health professionals would dispute. The most important thing to remember is that selfies, just like everything else in the world, are best done in moderation.Think of it,could your selfie addiction be a sign of mental illness?Whatever your answer to that would be,don't forget to answer my question please.

Jo Nesbø tells his Spurs story
09 August 2016|Tottenham Hotspur
Thrashing Inter Milan 6-1 in Oslo was a novel way to finish our pre-season friendly schedule – especially as the game was played out in the presence of world-renowned Norwegian author and keen Spurs fan Jo Nesbø.
The man who penned the popular Harry Hole detective series, in addition to hit standalone stories such as Headhunters and The Son, has seen more than 23 million copies of his books sold worldwide with his work translated into over 40 different languages.
Born in Oslo and still residing in the city, the 56-year-old, who at one stage played football for Norwegian top-flight side Molde, was thrilled to get the chance to take in one of our games on his doorstep at Ullevaal Stadion on Friday and explained how his love for the club first came about.
"It all started when I was eight or nine years old when my brother, who is five years older than me, told me: 'Okay, in case you're in doubt, you're a Spurs fan and you have to learn the whole squad by heart by Monday!'
"That's what I did, me and my younger brother. The whole family are Spurs fans. My nephew is here today and he's a Spurs fan too, so it runs in the family. I've been following Spurs ever since – the early-1970s were happy days of course, then we had happy moments in the 1980s too, the 1990s were a bit different but now I think the happy days are back.
"Lately, the players have been doing great. If you take away the last three or four matches of last season – and the start – it was great, amazing. I don't think I've ever seen a better Tottenham team in the way they've played than last year and if they continue to do so this season I feel confident that they will be in the top three. When they play at their best they will simply beat City, Chelsea, United – and Arsenal, of course!"
Jo's busy writing and travelling schedule, in addition to his commitments as a musician – he is the lead singer and guitarist for Norwegian rock band Di Dierre – means he doesn't get a chance to attend football matches very often and, as such, he's yet to see us in action in person at White Hart Lane.
He has visited our world-famous stadium before, though.
"I've been to White Hart Lane once – in the summer when I was 14 years old. Me and my brother went there but the place was closed so we couldn't get in!" he recalled with a smile.
"My brother had saved up a lot of money to buy supporter gear and he was so frustrated that all the shops were closed that he actually went to Highbury and bought some Arsenal supporter gear instead – we have never forgiven him for that and he is still embarrassed about it!"
Speaking to Spurs TV pitchside on Friday, Jo was asked how he would cast our current squad in one of his novels. Interestingly, he picked Hugo Lloris as "a good guy and defender of law and order" while Dele Alli was identified as the hero and the killer was Harry Kane! Check out Jo's answer in full in the video below…
Look out for more from Jo – including a chat about his favourite Spurs players of all time and his own endeavours in the beautiful game – in our official matchday programme in the opening weeks of the season.


text: Culturally speaking, I worry that my generation of westerners has become a collection of obligate brood parasites. Like every generation before us, we want to see our values survive. Like our ancestors, we want to influence the world and leave our imprint on society. But unlike those earlier generations, we seem to have lost the ability to accomplish those goals by creating, building, inventing, and imagining. Rather, to better the world as we see fit, we employ the far more parasitic approach of seizing the nest someone else built and refashioning it to our liking.

Double ketch up at the BayOctober 6, 2016
With just a fortnight until crane-out we were keen to get out on the water at the weekend. We had planned to be sailing on the Friday, but for one reason or another that didn't happen. Instead we motored east into a light easterly, with Christina II [above] keeping us company on the way to the bridges that cross between North and South Queensferry.
Our chums from Ragdoll, a Westerly 33 ketch had plans to anchor off Inchcolm overnight and asked us if we would like to join them. Overnight anchoring doesn't sound like a recipe for a great night's sleep and there's not much scope for shorepower, so we decided to pass opting for Dalgety Bay instead.
We moved our Macwester Malin, which floats in just a metre of water, further up the small harbour than usual. We could get to within about five metres of the beach, which looked a little surreal.
Approaching high water, Ragdoll arrived from Inchcolm to the east, and had no problems getting in behind us, despite having a 1.7m draft and taking a somewhat sub-optimal route in (over some sizeable rocks).
The weather was really good for early October. The harbour master dropped by for a chat and we enjoyed what was left of the afternoon in the sunshine.
We had dinner onboard our Macwester Malin and didn't make it to the clubhouse this time around, opting instead to have drinks onboard.
The following morning, we had bacon and eggs onboard for breakfast, and then went for a walk west towards St. David's Harbour. By the time we had talked to some of the local club members who wandered along to see the yachts, it was time to get ready for sailing back up the river.
We waited [tum-te-tum, have we really finished all the crosswords?] until Ragdoll had reasonable clearance so that we could sail west together. Yes, there's no absolutely doubt a fin-keeler is quicker, but then if we were truly racing …we would have been across the finishing line before Ragdoll even floated! In orange text for Ragdoll's skipper ; )
Out on the water there wasn't all that much wind. We were only making about 2-3 knots over the ground, and given that we hadn't left as soon as we floated [did I mention that we waited for Ragdoll?], I handed the helm over to the crew and started calculating how much time we had to reach our mooring. It was sunny and given that the crew had everything under control, I cracked a cold beer which had been popped into the freezer from the fridge as we were leaving. It was so Jean-Claude Van Damme cold my brain stopped working momentarily.
When I was eventually 'back in the room', I managed to work-out that we needed to do some motorsailing, so we switched on our Macwester Malin's Lombardini diesel engine and doubled the pace.
By the time we reached Dhu Craig we had reverted back to just using sail power. The shot above shows Erin, the 49ft Jeanneau we spent some time aboard the previous weekend, heading back east.
With no engine power, our pace dropped back down to around 2.5 knots. Ragdoll passed to our port as she was heading into the harbour at Brucehaven for an hour or two, before heading back to the marina at Port Edgar.
On the final approach to our mooring, the skipper of Solveig and his son came out to greet us in their dinghy. At the time we weren't sure what their dinghy was called, so we christened her Smallveig. They were having a great time.
Just one more weekend to go until crane-out, so fingers crossed that the weather holds!

Yahoo Net Soars On Revenue Gain, But Shares Sag
Investors Are Disappointed By Second-Period Results, Its Outlook for All of 2004
Yahoo Inc. said second-quarter net income and revenue more than doubled, driven by the Internet company's online advertising and consumer-service businesses.
But Yahoo failed to blow past Wall Street estimates, as some had predicted, and only slightly upgraded its outlook for 2004. The announcement came after the close of regular trading. Yahoo shares -- which were at $32.60, off 62 cents, as of 4 p.m. in Nasdaq Stock Market trading -- fell to $28.75, or 12%, in after-hours trading....

In dealing with seniors, he's impatient, harsh and down right nasty. He tries to boss them and make decisions for them instead of making suggestions. H eforgets he is hired by the client, not the other way around. He pads expenses, he is demeanin to his employees and doesn't pay them regularly. I would never recommend him to work for my dog, much less a person! He should be disbarred!

Talk about Nerve racking. I had practiced for 2 months almost everyday. I was at the gym on the treadmill and I would be reading my speech. I would be walking outside and…reading my speech. Last weekend, my man and I went to Syracuse for the weekend and I read my speech while he was driving. I should have it memorized by now, right?
The night of the event I get there early as suggested by the organizer Linda Babulic, who is in this pic with me on the left.
I didn't know who was going to be speaking first as she was only going to tell us that night. Well, I was the first. I was thinking, man, I wish i was second or something, but then another speaker said to look at it that you don't have to worry about being better, you are the first..or something like that. And I thought, ya, she's right. So, I accepted to be first and boy was I glad because…it was nerve racking. To think if I had to wait for others to get up there and see how much better they are then me? All I can say is I am glad I was first.
I start to speak and guess what? After practicing almost DAILY…I forgot parts. Come on!!! I practiced for 2 months!!! Well, I tried to remember as much as I could and, I think I did OK. I am just waiting to see what the video looks like, but they haven't posted it yet.
I said in my speech that to get what you want in life you have to push through your fear. Well, here's me pushing. I did my first speech, now I have to PUSH through my frigging procrastination to get my memoir book done. Why is it taking me so long???
Here's to those who are trying to push through their fear of public speaking. I have one word of advice…do it for you..not for them! If you do it for you, at least you will be proud of you. There will be people who will not say positive things and that's OK. Its just who they are. Just be YOU!

After that we headed on down to the Flying Scotsman, where unfortunately the photos ended because everyone was too busy trying to find outdoor seating and not get beat up in the process. People take the seating very seriously at the Scotsman, it would appear. With about ten people crammed around two tiny tables I wasn't game enough to take out my camera (especially when you factor ten-dollar jugs of beer and multiple wine bottles into the mix!).
p.s I got to 200 followers on my blog this week, so thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to everyone that reads and follows this blog! I really appreciate your love and support. xx

THE new owners of a boat firm have delivered their first vessel.
Meercat Workboats has got up and running under the umbrella of new owners Burgess Marine with the handover of a £14m boat to Scottish fish farming specialists Dawnfresh Farming.
Meercat completed the steel build, named the Falls of Lora, at its facilities in Portchester and the vessel is now in operation at Dawnfresh's trout farming operation on Loch Etive.
It is being used for general fish farm maintenance with a particular focus on feeding operations.
New Meercat managing director Jason Coltman said: 'This is the 22nd vessel built by the company and the first under the new ownership.
'Again, we have delivered the project on time and on budget, underlining our growing role as a leading supplier of small workboats.'
Gideon Pringle, farming director at Dawnfresh, added: 'This project has probably been one of the most successful that I have known in terms of accuracy and achieving expectations.'
With a cargo carrying capacity of 15 tonnes, a Heila HLM 10-3s crane with remote control and twin two-tonne capstans, the Meercat is well suited for lifting operations and net handling.
Considerable focus has gone into creating a large, clear 'snag free' deck with ample use of flush deck fittings and limited use of deck hatching.
The aim of Meercat's 15-strong workforce is to expand the company's product range to include barges, canal tugs, bigger class approved workboats and aluminium builds for wind farm support.

Something you may not know is that I wake up at like 5:30 in the morning. It's weird because no one I know is awake for like six hours after I get up. Like almost a whole workday passes before I speak to anyone.
I've been thinking about Nicholas Sparks all day. I need to know more.

The Artworks included Rosemary Laing's works in the Homestead's upstairs gallery, Janet Laurence's Treelines Track, a planted artwork tracing the environmental history of Bundanon, as well as works by Nigel Helyer, Starrs & Cmielewski, Stalker Theatre, De Quincey Co and Embodied Media. What most had in common is that they drew their inspiration from the Bundanon site itself.
Janet Laurence conducts a group around the newly planted Treelines Track. The project will develop over the next two years as further plantings take place.
Tree Lines Track tells stories and celebrates trees. The walking path reveals the different ways trees exist between the natural world, settler culture and the contemporary environmental approach to landscape. Stones placed with trees along the track will create stopping points. They are scripted with varying texts, fragments of poems and prose written either at Bundanon or about its landscape.
Beginning at the ruin of the original farmhouse and winding down through the old forest the path follows along the edge of the lagoon and then swoops across an open paddock towards the Bundanon Homestead. The walk will then reveal the dramatic transformation of lower river flats resulting from the Trust's Living Landscape bush regeration project. The walk continues along a ridge, down to the shores of the Shoalhaven River and back up past the Wattles before ending back at the main house. A temporary, interpretive, installation by the artist will be on show in the Single Mans' Hut in late 2014.
Tree Lines Track has been created in partnership with Landcare Australia and is a legacy project to mark the transformation of Bundanon by the Living Landscape initiative which to date has seen over 209 acres of Lantana removed and around 42,000 trees planted. Bundanon is particularly indebted to Dr Shane Norrish, Farming and Major Projects Director, Landcare Australia, for his expertise and commitment to this project.
Black Nectar is a site-specific light & sound installation that asks audiences to take slow, sensory walks through the inky-blackness of Bundanon's forests at night, charting personal courses through seasons of change, animality and imagination – far beyond the blinding lights and howling tones of our contemporary existence.
Gathering during a time Europeans once named as 'spring', audiences will leave the comfy lights and sounds of Bundanon's homestead area, to take powerful, personal, silent journeys into the long darks of night, heading ultimately towards the place of 'Black Nectar'. This most unusual of walks begins with impending darkness, and yet ultimately ends with the faintest, sweetest of glimmers – an en-lightening, re-sounding of our seasonal futures?
Black Nectar involves a collaboration with the 'Earth Futures Leaders Lab' and with Australia's foremost expert on the Grey Headed Flying Fox, behavioural ecologist Dr Peggy Eby (who is on site). As part of her national survey of seasonal vegetation patterns, Peggy identified Bundanon as short term but critical habitat for the nomadic Grey Headed Flying Fox that come to feast on the Eucalypt nectar, and thereby pollinate our native forests.
Keith Armstrong (co-director) has specialised for eighteen years in collaborative, hybrid, new media works with an emphasis on innovative performance forms, site-specific electronic arts, networked interactive installations, alternative interfaces, public arts practices and art-science collaborations. His artworks have been shown and profiled extensively both in Australia and overseas including the Prix Ars Electronica, Austria, 2008 Olympics Cultural Festival, ICA London, ZKM Centre for Art and Media, Karlsruhe, Germany, and Sydney Powerhouse Museum for ISEA 2013 Sydney.
Lawrence English (co-director) is media artist, composer and curator based in Australia. Working across an eclectic array of aesthetic investigations, English's work prompts questions of field, perception and memory. He utilises a variety of approaches including sound, installation, projection and polymedia objects to create works that meditate on subtle transformations of space and ask audiences to consider that which might sit at the edge of or beyond their perception. His pieces have been presented in Europe, the UK and Japan, as well as in the USA, NZ and Australia.
Dr Peggy Eby is a behavioural ecologist whose primary research interest is interactions between nectar- and fruit-feeding flying-foxes and their forest and woodland habitats. For over 25 years she has explored the responses of flying-foxes to complex patterns of nectar flow using satellite- and radio-telemetry studies, detailed observational work and range-wide surveys. She holds an adjunct position at the University of New South Wales, runs a private consultancy business and holds formal and informal advisory positions with various government agencies. A video of her talk is linked below.
Heidi Millington (consulting ecologist/artist); her practice weaves across science, sound and sustainability. She has most recently been mapping and prioritising the biodiversity value of estuarine and freshwater ecosystems for the Queensland Government. Believing that art and science are necessary for a full life and together offer a pathway to protecting our planet's fragile ecosystems, she is also a sound artist, music producer, vocalist and an award-nominated composer.
Luke Lickfold is a sound designer, control programmer and interactive systems designer whose recent work has focused on exploring fresh and unique approaches to interactive system design and sound spatialisation. His work embraces collaboration, with a strong emphasis on the dynamic integration of artistic elements including sound, visuals, robotics, lighting, performance and audience participation. Recent Key Works (with Keith Armstrong/Lawrence English) include Light of Extinction, Dark Cartographies and Nightrage /Nightfall.
This project has been kindly assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body, QUT Creative Industries and the Bundanon Residency Program. Keith Armstrong is supported by the Queensland Government through Arts Queensland, part of the Department of Science, Information Technology, Innovation and the Arts.
Mountain: In awakening the spirits within the mountain, I awaken my spirit, my ancestry and lineage, stretching from the terrestrial to the celestial and into the cosmos. In the Maori world, Whakapapa is a rationale used to define the origins of things, of people, of spirit. It's what defines us.- Victoria Hunt
We grapple with two defining elements of Bundanon, mountain and water relative to the wider context that is embedded in deep ecological concerns. Each of the two performers brings their own highly personal investigation to this performance whilst the music is a reflection on Earth Law.
De Quincey & Co is one of Australia's most innovative and inspiring dance performance companies, creating work at the intersection of dance, visual arts, theatre, music and performance. Led by Artistic Director Tess de Quincey, the company creates works of shifting scales for specific spaces – from a black box studio to a desert riverbed. De Quincey Co builds on several decades of work by de Quincey in Europe, Japan, India and Australia. The company's practice is based in BodyWeather, a contemporary dance training founded in Japan, which melds Asian and Western practices and philosophy. BodyWeather articulates the climates of our bodies and our minds – proposing a 'weather of being' to negotiate change and to explore our world. Recent works include Inner Garden at Callan Park, Box of Birds at Performance Space and Moondance currently touring in the UK and Brazil.
Water: Tracing water through its different forms and states, from mist to precipitation, from evaporation to solidity, from expansion to contraction, pulling and pulled by the moon.- Peter Fraser
The Company
Tess de Quincey is a choreographer and dancer who has worked extensively in Europe, Japan, India and Australia as a performer, teacher and director. She was a dancer with Min Tanakaand his Mai-Juku Performance Co in Japan from 1985 to 1991.

Victoria was part of Marrugeku and Critical Path's Indigenous Choreographic Laboratories 2009/11. These experiences have been formative in investigating concepts of Maori creativity and contemporary Indigenous politics. In 2012 her solo self-devised dance work Copper Promises premiered at Performance Space (Sydney) and The Place (London) in 2013, which lead to a Helpmann nomination for Best Female Dancer.
Katja Handt is a set and costume designer, maker and all-round artist and over the years has worked on a wide range of projects from film, theatre and live performance to conceptual art both in Australia and overseas. For De Quincey Co she designed costumes on recent productions BOX OF BIRDS and INNER GARDEN and now for MOUNTAIN & WATER at Bundanon.
Jim Denley (wind instruments) feels that if there is to be a relevant new music for our time/space it must start with a deep listening to the world – not imposing anthropocentric constructions on it. To this end he's emphasized spontaneity, site-specific work and collaboration in his work - he makes no distinctions between his roles as instrumentalist, improviser and composer.
Peter Fraser has 20 years experience as a performer in dance, physical theatre and site-specific performance. He has been an ongoing member of De Quincey Co ensemble since its inception, and this work has spanned site investigation and performances in the salt-pans and dry river beds of Lake Mungo (1992) and Alice Springs (1999, 2005), outdoors at Cook and Phillip Park, Sydney (2011) to black box works that range from Square of Infinity (2000) and FIVE Short Solos (2005) to Triptych (2008) and Run (2009). He is currently completing a Research MA, by performance, at Monash University and is a coordinator of the Environmental Performance Authority performance group, Melbourne.
This project was originally supported by the NSW Government through Arts NSW
BioPods is a proof of concept prototype for a series of site-specific, micro-architectural sculptures designed to facilitate active listening in the natural environment and to create an aggregated narrative of aural experience. It will provide a capsule for an overnight acoustic vigil for a single person and will be positioned in a sonically significant site on the Bundanon property to provide a unique situation that combines sculptural, architectural and acoustic experiences. Participants will be invited to record their sonic surroundings and a personal digital narrative as a contribution to an ongoing digital archive - a type of ship's log. Imagine a meditation cell, an escape pod, a re-entry capsule, an Ark (which may float if it rains hard) in which an overnight acoustic reverie can be recorded by the pod's user-friendly, on-board digital audio system.
Dr Nigel Helyer is an internationally prominent sculptor and sound artist whose interdisciplinary practice combines art, science and ecology to embrace our social, cultural and physical environments. He brings these concerns together in poetic art projects that prompt the community to engage with their cultural histories, identity and sense of place; inviting us to examine the abstract conditions of our world and our complex relationships to it.
A Stalker Theatre and UTS Creativity & Cognition Studio co-production
Taking its inspiration from the myriad of organisms that inhabit the Bundanon site, Creature works with 3D models of some of these life forms and creates an interactive play space for individual audience members. Using the Bundanon homestead wall as its projection surface, Creature invites you to transform your identity, find your organic rhythm and imagine what your inner creature might look like. Artists from Stalker Theatre and the University of Technology's (UTS) Creativity & Cognition Studios in Sydney have developedCreature. Stalker and UTS have been in collaboration on two recent performance works Encoded and Pixel Mountain and are currently developing a new range of interactive technologies for live performance.

… it looks as if a flood of newsprint has inundated the bush, as if the river runs media instead of water and the daily noise of commerce has deposited itself over nature like a fibrous silt that is destined to rot.- Robert Nelson, The Age 30 April 2014.
Shot on location at Bundanon between May and July 2013 by artist Rosemary Laing, The Paper shows the Bundanon landscape deeply carpeted in newspaper.
The Paper is on show in Bundanon Homestead's Upstairs Gallery.
Rosemary Laing is a Sydney-based artist. Her projects are most often created in culturally resonant locations, wherein she has undertaken interventions in situ or performance work. A monograph, written by Abigail Solomon-Godeau has been published by Prestel New York: Piper Press Sydney (2012). Over the past decades, she has presented work in numerous museums worldwide. Laing has presented solo exhibitions at several museums, including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney; Kunsthallen Brandts Klædefabrik, Odense; Domus Artium 2002, Salamanca; Frist Center for the Visual Arts, Nashville; and National Museum of Art, Osaka. She has participated in several international biennials, including the Biennale of Sydney (2008), Venice Biennale (2007), Busan Biennale (2004), and Istanbul Biennial (1995). Rosemary Laing is represented by Tolarno Galleries in Melbourne and Galerie Lelong in New York.
The normalisation of drone warfare and drone surveillance is becoming a concern to all. But drones can have other uses. Starrs & Cmielewski use them to capture still and moving images of Australian landscapes. They also used a drone to record dancer Alison Plevey's site-responsive performances in different locations at Bundanon. In response to the persistently intrusive drone, she exhibits a range of different emotions, including curiosity, agitation, engagement and resignation. The result is a video artwork that encourages contemplation about our relationship to nature and technology.
Leon Cmielewski and Josephine Starrs are Sydney-based artists whose long-term collaboration has produced media art installations situated at the juncture of cinema, information visualisation and sublime landscape. Their media art installation Incompatible Elements explores new ways of representing the relationship between nature and culture by embedding poetic texts into animated satellite images of landscapes and waterways in crisis in the Asia/Pacific region. Incompatible Elements has been shown several times in Australia and overseas Including the Auckland Arts Festival in 2011 and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Taipei, 2012 and most recently in the Malvides Pavilion at the Venice Biennale 2013.
Siteworks 2014 ConversationStarrs & Cmielewski often use play as a strategy for engaging with the social and political contradictions inherent in contemporary life. Their installation, chapel of rubber was created for the Cementa, Kandos NSW in2013. It was installed in the old nunnery chapel as a shrine to the street machine burnouts that take place in Kandos every January on the Australia Day weekend. Chapel of rubber was selected as a finalist in the Blake Prize 2013. Starrs is currently honorary Senior Lecturer in Film and Digital Art, Sydney College of the Arts, University of Sydney and Cmielewski is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Humanities and Communication Arts, University of Western Sydney.
Alison Plevey graduated from WAAPA with a first class honours degree, Bachelor of Arts - Dance, in 2009.

I know that some monitors can get really screwed up by magnets. Are there any kinds that don't? Also, please let me know about the actual computing hardware inside the tower or case, depending on the type of computer.
In general all TFTs are pretty much immune to magnetic fields. The same applies to SSDs.
You have to be more concerned about the cooling parts. Both, FANs for air-cooling and electrics pumps for water-cooling might be influenced by strong magnetic fields. So even if you are using an TFT and SSD you shouldn't deposit a super magnet on the case or right next to it.
As for electronics in general it depends on the strength of the magnetic field and it's distance. The best advice is to keep magnetic fields as low and as far away as possible from electronics.
There components specifically designed for use high magnetic field areas but they are probably way' more expensive.
FYI: Hard Drives are actually pretty good shielded against magnetic fields.
It usually takes a strong super magnet or degauss process to damage the Hard Drive and it's data.
In most cases you will probably kill all your computers FAN's, the BIOS chip and whatever else before the Hard Drive takes damage.
BIOS chip? Why? Is it more vulnerable than the CPU or is that just an example?
All electrical devices have an EMF (eletro-magnetic field) which is influenced by magnetic fields.
Most of them are just resistant enough for the average (low power) fields. Of course the circuits are also designed to withstand certain external influences and power fluctuations.
As for the BIOS (or computer in general) I don't know of any tests about what magnetic field strength is required to cause damage.
What you have to consider is that the BIOS mostly rests on an unshielded socket or is soldered so it will most likely be one of the first parts where checksum errors or data corruption appear.

Given how consumers are becoming more digital and are demanding more authentic relationships with the brands they love, the value of social media for C-level executives has never been important. From elevating their personal brands to cultivating business relationships to sharing their unique voices with consumers, employees and industry peers, senior executives are finding innovative ways to increase their online visibility and drive engagement.
Become a Thought Leader in The Digital Space
According to a 2015 CEO.com report, 61% of CEOs have no social presence whatsoever. This statistic reveals the missed opportunities for senior executives to connect with their target audiences, establish their industry expertise, inspire employees and build online relationships with thought leaders, influencers and members of the media.
To become executive thought leaders, C-Suite professionals must understand the nuances of social channels and implement digital strategies to build their network of followers. In order to achieve this, senior executives need to have a strong content and community management strategy in place to build both their personal and corporate brands.
In a world where brand authenticity matters, senior executives must find their unique voice and tone. They must also determine how often to post, the best way to respond to comments, when to take action and what topics they should write about. Those C-Suite executives who regularly create quality content and take the time out to respond to their followers, will not only attract and engage their target audiences, but will also raise their company's brand awareness and affinity.
Inspire Employees at All Levels of Your Organization
Today, more and more C-Suite professionals are using social media to inspire employee engagement. From communicating directly with their employees in real-time to seeking ideas and feedback, many senior executives are turning to social media to boost employee morale, bridge the gap between employees and their companies and keep employees informed about brand and industry developments in compelling ways.
Social media is not only encouraging increased transparency in the workplace, but is also playing a role in creating a corporate culture where employees are interested and engaged, committed to success and are passionate about what they do. From video to blog posts to tweets, social media is helping C-Suite professionals give prospective employees, clients, the general public, and the media a glimpse into their personal brands and company cultures.
Cultivate Professional Relationships
For C-Suite executives who are interested in cultivating professional relationships with prospective employees, business partners, consumers and online influencers, social media offers unique opportunities to form connections that would otherwise be virtually impossible to sustain outside of the digital space.
Senior executives are using social networks such as LinkedIn and Twitter to cultivate professional connections and nurture valuable partnerships based on shared business goals and interests. Many C-level professionals are also turning to social networks to recruit top talent, identify ideal clients, and find online influencers.
Today, the most successful senior executives realize the growing role social media is playing in business. As a result, many of them are adopting the technology to give their target audiences a more humanized view into their brand values, customer experience and company culture.
One Response to Social Media in the C-Suite
[…] Social media has forever changed how people stay in touch with each other and get updates on each other's lives. With a scroll and a click, people reminisce on their past, see what old friends are up to now and even dig into the seemingly scandalous personal lives of A-list celebrities. […]
