Latest media for Golden Genie and the Walking Wilds
Golden Genie and the Walking Wilds Review
Summon the Genie and be granted his wishes! Golden Genie is a 5-reel and 20 payline online slot from Nolimit City. The game comes with 3 Features: Genie Wishes, Genie Lamps, and Genie Parade with Walking Wilds and Wild Multipliers.
Symbols on the reels include 10, J, Q, K and A as well as leopards, snakes, genie lambs, Aladdins, and Princesses. The Genie is a Wild and a Scatter symbol and substitutes for all other symbols except the Bonus.
Genie Wishes
If the Aladdin symbol aligns to the left of the Lamp symbol in the main game, the Genie Wishes feature is activated. All Aladdin and Lamp symbols then act as Wild symbols and get a random multiplier of x2, x3, x4, x5, or x10.
Genie Lamps
This feature can trigger randomly during any spin in the main game. The Lamp Wild covers the reels 2 and 4 entirely, and the game pays both ways.
Genie Parade
3 or more Genie symbols trigger the Genie Parade feature with 1 Genie to become a Golden Genie. Golden Genie increases its Multiplier by 1 for every spin until it moves outside of the reels. When moving out of the first reel, the Golden Genie transfers its Multiplier to the closest Genie. Other Genie symbols' Multiplier increases by 1.
When the last Genie moves out from the reels, the Multiplier is saved for any new Genie landing. If new Genies appear, they'll adopt the behaviour. You can also trigger Genie Wishes in Free Spins. During the feature, the Aladdin and Lamp symbols transform into Genie symbols. The feature continues until there are no Genies on the reels.

Make custom paper sizes onto Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, Outlook, Publisher, and also some other word processing applications with a click of a mouse. Simply load the custom size document into your paper input tray. Open the document you wish to print by clicking File, then pressing on Publish. In the print display, click Publish in the Properties, Printer Properties, or preferences dialogue box.
The very first time you load custom dimensions newspapers in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or Publisher, they'll appear as normal documents. However, they are going to have small note written in the bottom of the page telling you that the record was printed in this customized size. It'll be located on top of the record in your file pane, beside the document name.
To change the size of this file, first select Custom Size from the Format menu from this file. When the window displays the Custom Size dialog box, pick the custom size and then press OK.
In the event you change your document's structure, the format will replace the old one. If you change from a PDF format to an image format, then your file will automatically be transformed to this format. If you open Word, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, or Publisher, you will understand the choice to open the file in a certain format, such as Letter, Courier, Business, Legal, etc.. If you don't find this option, it is possible to just change the arrangement of the file by choosing View in a different format.
If you print a number of documents that use exactly the same format, then you might save yourself time by printing the habit size document for each file. You may save time by not using your normal paper trays when you print the documents. For instance, if you have many documents that you www.writingessayeast.com publish in Outlook isn't the format that you use, you are able to print the files that are saved in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Publisher into a Word document, then print out the PDF format files as a PDF.file. This saves you time because you do not have to open each document separately and can save yourself a good deal of space and time on your own desk.
You might also change the size for the identical reason. If you save your file as a PDF, it'll be stored as a different size than the initial document. The PDF may be applied as a template to make a new document. You may also make a PDF template of any document which you want to print out.

Keith Skillman, CAE
Keith Skillman, CAE, based in Lawrence, Kansas, writes about associations and their work.
An initiative by the International Association for the Study of Pain illustrates the protective nature of many associations' work. In concert with the ASAE centennial, the ASAE Research Foundation is researching associations' other societal impacts on public protection, education, workforce, and the economy.
Imagine for a moment what life is like for an individual with chronic, debilitating back pain. Lost work. Doctor visits. Significant health implications, such as mental and behavioral conditions like depression and anxiety. Unreimbursed medical expenses. For the estimated 116 million Americans affected by chronic pain of one kind or another, it's a daily reality.
Moreover, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, patients with chronic pain experience up to 70 percent greater mortality risk, and the estimated annual cost of treating chronic pain in the United States alone is $635 billion.
And yet—despite the sometimes crippling impact on individuals and even their workplaces and communities—until recently, chronic pain was not systematically recognized as a discrete diagnosis. The situation has left patients with limited treatment and insurance options, complicating the work of researchers in quantifying the prevalence and burden of pain, and limiting opportunities for clinicians to develop evidence-based and cost-effective treatments.
Today—thanks to extensive, scientifically rigorous work of the members of the International Association for the Study of Pain, experts in the field, and nearly 100 partner organizations—chronic back pain and other forms of chronic pain are discretely recognized and classified into one of seven categories:
In May 2019, the World Health Assembly approved the classification, ICD-11, and the new diagnoses will take effect worldwide for health reporting in January 2022. What's the significance? Among other things, formal recognition of chronic pain as a stand-alone disease means:
The IASP example is one of many from ASAE Research Foundation work that will be highlighted and further detailed throughout the ASAE centennial this year and beyond. The foundation's research is focused on association initiatives that have positively changed society, specifically in areas relating to safety, education, and economic and workforce development.
Throughout 2020, ASAE and the ASAE Research Foundation will tell the stories of these association efforts and share the lessons gleaned by associations representing wide-ranging industries and professions and addressing specific problems and needs.

Facebook is making it easier to say what you really mean on Messenger. Wave goodbye to emoji misinterpretation, because you can now choose from a wider, more diversity range of icons.
The social network announced more than 1,500 new Messenger emoji on Wednesday, including a wider selection of diverse emoji.
Facebook's new emoji include skin tone variants, which iOS already has and which is coming to Android soon. There will also be more female and gender-agnostic options for existing emoji, making this the first emoji set to officially increase gender representation in the tiny icons.
For example, you can now choose a female police officer, pedestrian, runner, surfer, or swimmer emoji on Facebook.
There's a growing push to get platforms to introduce more diverse emoji. According to a study by feminine care brand Always, 67 percent of young women believe that current emoji suggest that women's career choices are limited. The Unicode Consortium, the body that decides what emoji wind up on our phones, has also proposed new standards that would allow people to switch the icons' gender and hair color.
A group of Googlers recently submitted a proposal to the organization asking it to include not just a wider range of female emoji, but also a wider range of female professionals. Existing emoji do not include female doctors, computer scientists, chefs, or musicians.
Along with Facebook's emoji diversification, the company is also making emoji more efficient. Now when you send emoji, they'll look the same on every platform.
Previously, if your friend sent an emoji from an Android device, it would look different on your iPhone and even less appealing in the Web version of Messenger. The company streamlined its approach so that all emoji appear in Facebook's redesigned version of their basic form.
The new emoji will begin rolling out on Thursday, and you'll need to update your app to access all of them.

Do you have trouble finishing what you start? Are you always moving on to the next big thing? Do things (or people) constantly vie for your attention? Are you constantly feeling behind?
These things are very common and often the result of interruptions and distractions in your world. I think the mistake that we make is in trying too hard to stay focused. We think that if we can eliminate these distractions and just stay focused on one thing that we can finally make our dreams come true. We can finally get the job done. Right?
But the thing is…distractions are not the problem. The problem is how we deal with those distractions.
And, what I've found is that the harder I fight against them, the less I get done. The more frustrated I get. The more scattered I feel in every aspect of my life. Not just when it comes to what I'm trying to focus on, but when it comes to everything in life.
So, I've developed a method I like to call the IDEA method.
I: Interruptions
D: Develop
E: Everything's
A: Alright
What does this mean? Well, it means that interruptions are a part of life. We all set great intentions. We all have goals that need to be accomplished. And…we are all human. Life is happening all around us all the time and let's face it, most things are outside of our control.
I think that's what it really comes down to. We want to control ourselves and our circumstances, but very often things will happen that lead us off course.
For instance, as a writer, I would love to be able to sit down and write my latest book for about an hour. But, no sooner than I sit down to write, I'll get at least one phone call. Okay, no problem. I'll just turn off the ringer.
Well then, what happens when the doorbell rings and its UPS with a package? It can wait. Or, most likely…one of my kids will have an "urgent" issue like telling me that they are bored or want to go somewhere or need something to eat right this very minute while I'm deep inside the mind of my characters.
Or, what if you're recording a video for your business. It never fails that no matter what time I schedule those videos that my neighbor will start cutting his grass. Or, a yard crew will start chopping down branches. Or, the garbage truck will compact trash right outside my window. Or, maybe a neighbor's dog will have a barking fit.
Chances are that anything and everything will seem to happen when we are trying our best to make progress.
But, the thing is, these things are happening around us all the time. We just don't notice them as much until we are trying to focus and get things done. We don't notice them until we try to be good and productive and set intentions.
And since these things are beyond our control (at least most of them are anyway) there is really no way around them. So, what can we do?
We can accept the interruptions. We can expect them. And we can just move forward anyway.
Life will happen and the only thing that we can ever truly control are our own actions and our reaction to other people's actions. So, you can turn off that ringer. Put on headphones. Set a timer and tell those kids not to bother you until the timer rings. Then, you can work your hardest to meet your goals.
And, if you still get interrupted…that's okay. Everything is alright. You just get back on track as soon as you can and keep going.
You definitely don't use it as an excuse for not getting work done. You definitely don't stop what you're doing and just give up for the day. And you definitely don't wait to work until you can be uninterrupted because chances are…more interruptions are on their way.
Keep this in mind the next time you find that distractions are creeping their way into your life. Let me know how it works for you.
Distractedly yours,

Review: The Mythical Man-Month
Fred Brooks's The Mythical Man-Month is a book that software designers often hear mentioned in respectful tones. This is Fred Brooks, one of the architects of the old mammoth IBM operating systems of the 1970's discussing his lessons learned from those projects and applying them to general software engineering. It is rightly praised for spending the lion's share of its content on coordinating people rather than coordinating computers.
Academically, it lives up to its reputation quite well. The edition I have includes retrospective chapters written 10 and 20 years after the initial publication. In one of these Brooks mentions asking an airplane row-mate who did not know him and was reading The Mythical Man-Month what the fellow thought of it. The fellow replied that there was nothing in it he didn't already know. While Brooks is disappointed, I think it is high praise. He has taken an arcane topic and made it accessible to the point where readers think they've had all these ideas themselves. By and large they haven't.
While it is well worth reading and understanding this book if you have any interest in managing large scale creative endeavors there is no question that it is a product of its time. Discussions of productivity are given in terms of machine instructions and cautions about overflowing resident memory abound. PL/I is put forth as the only viable operating system programming language. For the student of computing it is a fascinating look at how these technologies – many of them obsolete – were viewed by their contemporaries. While these examples may confuse modern readers, the fundamental ideas are put forth with such clarity that the ancient examples are more an interesting side light than a barrier to understanding.
It is also amazing to see how Brooks unapologetically refers to the Bible and religious teachings. He advocates two-person superior/subordinate programming teams and while he makes an excellent technical argument for the arrangement, it is jarring to see the topic annotated in a summary with "Note God's plan for marriage." The technical arguments do not rest on theology, but it is surprising to modern eyes to see the references.
Overall, this is a classic that deserves its reputation and adds the joys of a unique voice and historical perspective.
Strongly recommended. (A must for software people.)

Texas shelter housing migrants sees spike in COVID-19 infections
Migrant families coming across the border into Texas amid a new illegal immigration wave are testing positive for COVID-19 at a much higher rate — up to 10 times higher in some quarters — than the positive test rate among the U.S. population.
The Washington Times reports that its survey of jurisdictions that are doing the testing has found that Brownsville, Texas, has reported a 12% positive rate for the novel coronavirus among incoming migrant families. And a homeless shelter in Harlingen has seen a 25% positive rate among the migrants it has helped.
The current positivity test rate for the U.S. public is at 3.5%, per Johns Hopkins University's tracker.
The Washington Times quotes U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement as saying the families they've processed are between 5% and 10% positive for COVID-19, and they can only process 100 people a day among the 500 to 800 people who are coming across the border daily.
Pastor Bill Reagan, who runs the shelter in Harlingen, called Loaves and Fishes, said they're doing their best to help the massive influx of migrants. "It would be best if Customs and Border Protection decides to release certain individuals into the United States that they thoroughly quarantine ... for the 14 days and test them and only release those that test negative," he said. "But I also understand they're overwhelmed."
The pastor said that among two groups that arrived at the shelter on Feb. 18 and Feb. 19, the first group had a COVID-19 positivity rate of 25%, while the second group was never tested before they were transported to the shelter.
Reagan believes many are not being tested despite having been in close contact with those who have tested positive, yet they are being released.
"I think this is probably true for all the places people have been released from Border Patrol custody. All of them have been in close quarters for a long period of time. They all come together on the bus, they've all been detained together, and I would suppose on their trip from Central America they have been mixing with all kinds of people," he told The Washington Times.
"Say they come to us on a particular day — they may just have been exposed that day or a day earlier and not test positive because of that," he added.
The number of those who've been released without any testing is in thousands, Sheriff A.J. Louderback in Jackson County, Texas, told The Washington Times.
More than 100,000 people, including nearly 9,500 unaccompanied minors, crossed the southern border illegally in February, according to The Epoch Times.
As President Joe Biden vowed during the 2020 campaign to reverse many of former President Trump's policies, the Trump administration sought to ensure that migrant asylum-seekers would remain in Mexico while their cases were processed in the U.S.
However, The Washington Post recently reported that the Biden administration was planning to convert immigrant family detention centers in South Texas into rapid-processing hubs to screen migrant adults and children and release them within 72 hours.
The Biden administration has dismissed calls to describe the influx of migrants at the southern border as a "crisis," with White House Press Secretary Jen Paski rejecting the term "border crisis" outright.
"I don't think we need to sit here and put new labels on what we've already conveyed is challenging," Psaki said Tuesday at a press briefing.
Customs and Border Protection released figures this week showing that 100,441 people were apprehended in February while crossing the border illegally.
During the White House press briefing on Wednesday, Biden's Southern Border Coordinator Roberta Jacobson, a former U.S. ambassador to Mexico, acknowledged that illegal border crossings have spiked under this administration.
"We've seen surges before," Jacobson said. "Surges tend to respond to hope, and there was significant hope for a more humane policy after four years of pent-up demand."
"So I don't know whether I would call that a coincidence, but I certainly think that the idea that a more humane policy would be in place may have driven people to make that decision," Jacobson added. "But perhaps, more importantly, it definitely drove smugglers to express disinformation — to spread disinformation about what was now possible."
Rep. Henry Cuellar, D-Texas, who recently criticized the Biden administration over its stand on illegal immigration, told CNN on Thursday, "There are three messages … One message from the White House — 'don't come now, come later.' Message number two from the family members and neighbors — 'Hey, Pedro, ya pasamos. We're able to come. Come over right now.'"
Cuellar continued, "Message number three is from the criminal organizations — 'Hey, I can get you across. Pay me a little bit of money.' And they are going to listen to message number two and three. Quite honestly, that is what's happening until we have a solid message that we can send down to Central America."
A large number of migrants are listening to smugglers' or family members' messages, he added.
Speaking to The Houston Chronicle recently, Cuellar also warned that "we are weeks, maybe even days away from a crisis on the southern border."
"Inaction is simply not an option," Cuellar said. "Our country is currently unprepared to handle a surge in migrants in the middle of the pandemic."
This week, John Modlin, interim chief in charge of the Border Patrol's Tucson sector in Arizona, also warned that illegal immigration was likely to overtake the past three years combined. "So right now, we're about a hundred percent over where we were this time this last fiscal year," independent journalist Sharyl Attkisson quoted him as saying, according to The Epoch Times.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott and the state's Department of Public Safety announced last week that they will deploy the Texas National Guard to the Mexico border as part of "Operation Lone Star" to prevent Mexican cartels and traffickers from smuggling people and drugs into the state.
Describing the situation as a "border crisis," the Republican governor made the announcement on Twitter. He said the operation involves the deployment of the Texas National Guard as well as air, ground, Marine and tactical border security assets "to deny Mexican Cartels & smugglers the ability to move drugs & people into Texas."

Step-By-Step Guide to Building a House
Step-By-Step Guide to Building a House. The first concern after purchasing a property in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, or any other city in Pakistan is how to proceed with the construction process. We thought why not put an end to your doubts and concerns with a detailed step-by-step guide to building a house, which is exactly what we did because most people go through the same predicament and end up agitated and frightened about committing some of the most typical construction mistakes.
Table of Contents
Step-By-Step Guide to Building a House
We'll go over every stage of home construction, from laying the foundation to designing the interior. Our goal is to ensure that you have complete knowledge of what's required and what's going on around you as you go through the process.
Steps Involved In Building A House
Let's take a brief look at the stages of home construction we'll be addressing below before moving on:
- Conducting Soil Analysis
- Designing the Layout
- Applying for Utilities
- Constructing the Foundation
- Polishing the Exterior
- Fitting the Interior
- Decorating Touches
- Finalizing the Home
Now, to assist you to prepare for the obstacles ahead, let's continue with the step-by-step guide to building a house.
1. Conducting Soil Analysis
First and foremost, you must test the soil to identify its type and consistency before moving further with the construction procedure. If the soil is too loose, you'll need to dig a little deeper and replenish the plot. If the earth is too hard, you'll have to break it down using heavy gear before laying the foundation for your new home.
2. Designing the Layout
Next, you'll need to engage a designer or an architect in order to properly follow all of the technical stages required in building a house. Some housing societies may even be able to assist you by providing blueprints and floorplans for your specific land. Remember that while you may have specific criteria for the house being built, there may be limitations in realizing your vision.
Additionally, inform the designer of all your expectations and requirements ahead of time so that the plan can suit them. This covers the number of rooms you require, the structure's number of floors, and so on. Before you start building, double-check that your plan has been approved.
3. Applying for Utilities
The next stage in our step-by-step approach to building a house is to apply for the major services you'll need, such as electricity, water, and gas. You may need a water tank, a backup generator, or a gas cylinder in some places to compensate for a scarcity of these services, and you will need to plan accordingly.
4. Constructing the Foundation
When you lay the foundation of the house, the practical stages of home construction begin. Excavation is completed, and concrete is poured into the foundation, which must dry completely before further construction on the plot can begin. Then you can erect the house's frame or a general structure according to the approved plans.
5. Polishing the Exterior
It's time to start working on the exterior finishes as soon as the house's frame is complete. Everything must be done with the home's curb appeal in mind, from plastering the walls to installing the roof tiles. For added delicacy, you can put textured paint on your outside walls or have brickwork motifs carved into them.
6. Fitting the Interior
The inside of the house is the following step in the step-by-step approach to building a house after the exterior structure is complete. There's a lot to do in this process, from painting the walls to putting in the flooring. Plumbing fixtures, lighting fixtures, electrical wiring, and all of the home's doors and windows must all be installed at this time in order for the home to be ready for the finishing touches.
7. Decorating Touches
The challenge of making the house more livable comes next. This involves painting the interior in the colours you've decided on ahead of time to make it feel more welcoming.
However, aside from a fresh coat of paint, every under-construction property has unsightly disarray and an unkempt appearance. You don't want to move into a house that appears to be under construction. However, most contractors will clean up after themselves before turning the house over to you for a final inspection.
8. Finalizing the Home
Finally, once all of the construction aspects have been completed, you can decorate your home in any color scheme you want. Apply wallpaper to your walls, spray a wall with custom designs, or bring in the furniture you'll need to make your new home more comfortable.
There are several steps to building a house, and we've covered each one in detail in our step-by-step guide to house construction so you can take on the challenge while being fully informed about the duties ahead of you and your contractors.

Latin America
The text of Latin America's statement on "Education for All" in the World Education Forum, held in Dakar, Senegal, April 26-28, 2000. Hundreds of people from a wide array of countries, organizations, institutions and sectors have signed this statement and more are doing so daily.
Envío team
The start of a new decade and of a new century is an invitation to reflect on past achievements and to prepare a future agenda based on new available knowledge and on lessons learned. This is a moment to evaluate, rectify and renew commitments in education. The year 2000 was the horizon for global programs such as "Education for All" (EFA) launched in Jomtien, Thailand, in 1990, as well as for regional and national initiatives for educational change and development around the world. Many evaluation activities are going on at the global, regional and national levels, to assess the fulfillment of goals and to define future agendas. At the end of April 2000, the World Education Forum takes place in Dakar, Senegal. The results of the EFA Assessment will be presented and a new Declaration and Framework for Action for the year 2015 will be adopted. In this context and at this moment, a group of Latin American educators and intellections wish to share with other colleagues and with the international educational community some concerns and reflections from Latin America. Ours is an important region in the developing world. It has its own historical, educational and cultural characteristics. We Latin Americans are proud to have developed innovative and fertile ideas, approaches and experiences in education, appropriate to our particular realities.

New leaders set goals
August 19, 2016
The ASWSU leaders are beginning their term with a number of projects, from reducing the cost of class materials to improving transparency in both their own and the university's operations.
Continuing the work of last year's ASWSU leadership, President Taylor Christenson and Vice President Kyle Strachila said they hope to decrease the cost of non-tuition items such as textbooks, access codes and clickers.
They said because legislature granted a 15 percent decrease in tuition in recent years, ASWSU must do its part to lessen the financial burden on students. One aspect of this, they said, could be fundraising and applying for grants for professors to write their own textbooks to avoid paying textbook companies for their intellectual property.
Kansas State University, former home of WSU President Kirk Schulz, implemented a similar program, and Christenson said Schulz supports the idea, particularly for highly populated freshman classes like History 105 and Chemistry 101.
She said the progress made by ASWSU last year was largely lost due to administration shifting around, but they plan to continue conversation with the Bookie, as well as faculty and staff, about the project.
"There's a way to do it," Christenson said. "We just need to figure out the best way."
One of their main lobbying topics this year will be increasing transparency across WSU. Strachila said they hope to expand the accessibility of the university budget to include the budgets of individual departments, whereas only those for entire colleges are currently available, per legal requirements.
"We'd like to see it broken down a little more than that," Strachila said.
He said that for them to justifiably ask this, ASWSU must also be more open. After a year without a functioning website, they plan to launch a new site on the first day of school. Christenson said it will display the structure of ASWSU's different departments and committees, as well as Senate and executive meeting minutes and all yearlong initiatives.
"(We're) trying to be a little more transparent with students of what's going on in our offices," Christenson said.
Another aspect of this transparency is found in both the tuition and Services and Activities (S&A) fees students pay each year. Strachila said that though these dollar amounts are available, the format is not reader-friendly. They plan to make these more accessible to help students understand where their money is going.
"We need to be really conscientious of the way we're pushing out that important information to students," Christenson said.
Two of their main initiatives are the #DearWSU campaign, for students to express concerns and ideas for the university, and the "It's On Cougs" campaign against sexual violence.
The third is the Cougar Choice Housing program, conceived during the administration of Jared Powell during the 2014-2015 school year.
Essentially a Yelp for housing near campus, it would allow inspectors to review houses and apartments and, if they pass, give them a stamp of approval.
"It's basically going to be our way of looking after our students," Strachila said. "Making sure that the places they're going to live are going to be up to code."
Christenson said she, Strachila and ASWSU staff members plan to eat in dining halls several times per month to make themselves more approachable to students, who often aren't aware what ASWSU does or that it exists.
"I feel like that's a huge injustice," Strachila said, "that we are representing them on such a huge level and such a big capacity and they don't even know who we are.
"We need to … make sure that more students know about how ASWSU can help them."

The concept of marriage has existed since ancient times. In our human life and society, marriage has always held a place of great importance. It is the foundation of the family and the cornerstone of any society. The ritual of marriage has certain rules and patterns that differ from country to country, region to region, state to state, all around the world. Shaped by these unique and different cultures, the rules and patterns developed have become characteristic of the customs and traditions that define a particular society.
Before our daughter became engaged, her future husband came to her father and asked if he could have her hand in marriage. This seemed to have been a man-to-man thing as I was not aware that it happened. I was surprised when my daughter and her new fiancé arrived at our home unexpectedly in the evening of the next day. She was proud her husband-to-be had come to her father privately, asking for her hand and permission to propose. And she was excited to show us, me in particular, the diamond engagement ring she received after accepting his proposal.
In these modern times in American culture, the old-fashioned tradition of a young man coming to the father and asking permission to marry his daughter is not always practiced. The young couple may still be at university, or living on their own and working in their chosen profession, and/or living in another city away from their parents. They may be dating and courting for several months or even years before becoming serious about a formal commitment to marriage. They may not seek permission for their engagement and future marriage as much as informing their parents of their decision.
In Turkish culture, preparation for the marriage ceremony has different stages. In every region, province, and even village in Turkey, customs have developed over generations. Many traditions and kinds of marriage were practiced in rural Turkey but are now disappearing. Here are some examples.
- Marriage among relatives, such as cousins, was common.
- Upon the death of a brother, in order to keep the inheritance of the deceased in the family, and for the welfare of the children, the widowed sister-in-law is married to a single or widowed brother-in-law.
- Men would kidnap a girl they wanted to marry but could not, usually due to family objection.
- A couple would run away to overcome family objection to their marriage.
- In an "oturakalma" situation, a girl moves into the home of the man she loves, many times at the objection of her family.
- Called an"ic guveysi " marriage, a man moves into the home where his wife lives, usually due to his inability to pay a dowry, or the absence of a son in the bride's family.
The old custom of a "baslik" or dowry has almost ceased to exist in most of Turkish society. But it is still practiced in the underdeveloped regions of Turkey. And although outlawed and punishable by law, in some regions marriage with more than one wife (polygamy) still happens.
It was more prevalent in the past when a wife could not bear children, became ill, was or became an invalid.
In Turkey, men are usually expected to marry after completing their mandatory military service. In some traditional areas, they marry right before going into military service. The general age for marriage is 22 for men and 20 for women, and can vary 5-6 years beyond that. Because many young people in Turkey now attend college or university, the age for marriage may extend until after they graduate. As in most cultures, older siblings are generally expected to marry first, particularly if they are of the same gender. However, in various regions in Turkey, the age for marriage is dependent upon the traditions that are observed there.
"Seeing a girl" – the first step leading to marriage. The first step is expected to be taken by the groom-to-be and his family, while the family of the girl being courted remains passive. In a traditional setting, the courtship process begins with families who want to marry their sons looking for girls, starting with relatives, neighbors, and close friends. The following story is the account of how finding a girl for marriage works in some traditional Turkish villages. (Source: Turkey Travel Centre.com Blog)
"A young woman from the UK traveling in Turkey took a Jeep safari through the mountains of Marmaris. Passing beautiful waterfalls on country roads, they arrived at a small village. It was the embodiment of traditional Turkey and far away from man-made holiday resorts. Despite the heat of the summer sun, the women were dressed in long-sleeved shirts, long flowered pants, and their heads were covered. Gardens were filled with chopped firewood with goats and chickens running around, and old men sat talking together in the local teahouses. Noticing an empty milk bottle standing on the beam of one of the houses, she asked about it. The guide said the father of the house put it there, to signal that his daughter was ready for marriage. Any man who could knock the milk bottle off the roof could ask for his daughter in marriage. The father would assess the suitor's financial position and his ability to provide for his daughter and the children they would have."
Cultural changes have been more rapid in larger cities in Turkey. Common practice is for people to meet on their own personally and begin to develop a relationship. However, in more traditional communities, the "Görücülük", the act of go-between, is still the process used in enabling marriages. Several women of a family, or friends of a man who wants to get married, pay special visits to the home of the girl seen as a potential fit. They examine the girl closely and reveal their intentions. This procedure is called "seeing a girl, "send women to see a girl", or "woman sent out to inquire about a prospective bride" ("kız bakma", "görücü çıkma", "dünür gezme" in Turkish).
If the girl receives an affirmative evaluation, her family is given time to learn about the prospective groom and his family before making a decision. If they agree to take the process forward, the role of the go-betweeners ("gorucus") comes to an end. However, having done the work of "seeing" the prospective bride, these women will remain involved in the process of asking for the girl's hand.
Agreement to marry ("Söz Kesimi") is the next step. Asking for the hand in marriage of the prospective bride. Both families reach agreement by way of "Dünürcülük" (women sent out to inquire about a prospective bride) and agree on marriage before guests ("Söz Kesme"). The engagement is completed by giving the rings, which are tied into the ends of one long red ribbon and presented on an embroidered cloth brought by the prospective bridegroom's family. In some regions "Söz kesimi" is also called a small engagement ceremony. Sweet dessert ("ağız tatlılığı") brought by the prospective bridegroom's family is distributed to guests immediately after the agreement by both parties to marry their children.
Even today in some regions, the prospective bridegroom is not present at this ceremony. According to the attitude of the prospective bride's father, the bridegroom who is present in the bride's home, and the prospective bride, both kiss the hands of the elder guests. The ceremony for agreement to marry is complete.
Engagement is the next step. This ceremony is held in the bride's home. The cost in some regions is borne by the bridegroom's family but many times by the bride's family. When a date has been decided for the engagement ceremony and invitations have been made, guests go to the home of the bride. In traditional sections of the community, women and men sit separately in the bride's home.
After lunch, jewelry (called "takı") is given to the bride. She is dressed in a special engagement dress from her mother-in law and relatives of the bridegroom. Again in some areas, the bridegroom may not come to the bride's home. If he does not come, the engagement ring for the bride is given by a woman from the bridegroom's home. If the bridegroom is present, rings worn by the bride and bridegroom are placed by an old man on the ring fingers of their right hands, to the accompaniment of standard words and wishes.
In modern Turkey, many engagement ceremonies are more elaborate. Wedding halls are rented. Men and women sit together. Music, mostly with live musicians, is played. The engagement is celebrated by the family and friends of the prospective bride and groom.
No definite rule is imposed for the length of the engagement, but is determined by agreement from both sides. In modern communities of Turkey, it is considered natural for engaged couples to meet. However, in traditional, rural communities, such meetings are allowed only by parental permission, and a family member usually accompanies the couple.
Breaking off an engagement is considered a serious matter and frowned upon in traditional circles. If the party who broke off the engagement is the girl, all jewelry she received must be returned to the former fiancé. If the man broke off the engagement, usually his former fiancée keeps the presents.
Before the wedding, formal invitations are distributed inviting family, friends and neighbors to the wedding. The bride's family completes preparations for the trousseau. The bridegroom's family completes gifts for the bride, to be presented to her before, during and after the wedding. A wedding flag is planted by men at the bridegroom's home. In some regions, apples, onions, mirrors, and other items are placed on top of the flag.
The night before the wedding, the bride spends her last night in her family's home. She will be in the company of women of all ages close to the couple's family, including the bridegroom's female relatives. Hosted in the bride's home will be a ceremony called the Henna Night ("Kina Gecesi"), getting its name because the hands of the bride are adorned with henna. The dyeing ceremony differs by region.
Dry henna brought by the bridegroom's family is broken into pieces in a silver or copper vessel. The hands and feet of the bride are dyed with henna, and a veil ornamented with red flake is placed over her head. The bride is then brought to the guests accompanied by songs and hymns about henna. The bridegroom's side puts money into the hand of the bride. Initially, relatives of the bride, particularly her mother, lament the departure of the daughter from her parent's home. Then a joyous celebration of song and dance follows.
After the guests leave, close friends of the bride may stay with her until the next morning, spending their last "single" hours together. In some regions, a similar ceremony is held for the bridegroom by his friends at his home.
A traditional wedding is different in older, rural, conservative regions of Turkey. In the bigger cities and modern circles, weddings are more Western in style. A wedding banquet or reception unites the family and friends of the couple. In all cases, the marriage requires a civil ceremony conducted and recorded by a municipal officer to become legally effective. The religious ceremony precedes the civil ceremony by a few days.
The day after the Henna Night is the day of "Gelin Alma" ("to fetch the bride"), "kız alma" ("to fetch the girl"), or "gelin götürme" ("to carry the bride"). Everyone is invited to this ceremonial procession from the home of the bride to the home of the groom. Guests go to fetch the bride on foot if not far, or by cars if too far to go. In some regions, the bridegroom is not allowed to accompany the bridal procession. The procession is followed by drums and pipes. In some regions, the bride is prepared by elderly women ("yenge") who prepare and attend to the bride. Preparation of the bride in modern times is usually done at a beauty salon. The bride joins the procession on her way to the groom's home.
Before leaving her home, a "Maidenhood Belt" ("Bekaret kuşağı") is tied around the bride's waist by her brother or a close relative. The bride says farewell to those who will stay at home. To lighten things up, the doorway is sometimes blocked by a male relative of the bride or a younger brother sitting on the wooden chest that carries the bride's dowry, to prevent the bride from leaving. A tip from the groom's family solves this final hurdle, then the bride leaves her parent's home.
The bride and wedding procession travels around the village accompanied by drums and pipes, then comes to the home of the groom. The mother-in law meets them at the front door and welcomes the bride with a gift. The groom takes her by the arm and leads her inside the house. After a while, the groom is taken out by friends and is shaved, bathed and dressed, then taken to the mosque for the late night prayer ("Yatsı Namazı"). When the groom is returned home, he is accompanied by the "hodja" (preacher) of the local mosque who performs the religious marriage ceremony.
Then it is time for the "legal marriage" ceremony. The bride and groom sign paperwork and agree to the marriage on legal terms so they can be presented with their marriage certificate. At some point, the couple will try effortlessly to step on their partner's foot. This symbolizes who has dominance or who will call the shots in the relationship, which usually provides a good laugh for the couple's families.
The bride and groom are then allowed to enter the nuptial chamber ("gerdek"). An older woman in the nuptial chamber asks the couple to hold each other's hand. The groom performs his ritual prayer, and then opens the veil over the bride's face, after giving her a present to see her unveiled face. Then the couple eats the meal offered by the bride's family alone.
During the wedding, traditionally after cutting the cake, the bride and groom will have ribbons placed around their necks. Guests will then approach the couple, congratulate them, and pin money or a gold coin to their ribbons.
In traditional communities, virginity is extremely important and proof of it is sought by the groom's family. Proof is usually the bed linen where the marriage was consummated. An absence of blood on the linen can be cause for great shame for both families. It may even be a reason to send the bride back to her parent's home. This procedure has become outdated and is not widely practiced today.
Whether the wedding is held in a pasture, which might be the case for a village wedding, or if it is held in a fancy ballroom in a larger city, a Turkish wedding can be a one-night affair or last up to three days. Typically, the more rural the setting, the longer the wedding celebration will be.

Repetitive Strain Injury
Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)
Repetitive Strain Injury is also known as Occupational Overuse Syndrome (OOS). These terms cover a group of separate disorders, all of which are related to repetitive trauma to the nervous and musculo-skeletal system.
The trauma can occur because of working for prolonged periods in a poor posture. It may be related to poor ergonomics or inefficient bio mechanics. An example would be over-use of the relatively small muscles of the wrist and forearm when performing heavy or repetitive lifting, while under-using the large stabilising or core muscles of the trunk. Although frequently referring to conditions of the arms, RSI can also occur in the lower limbs or trunk.
How We Can Help
At Free2Move we offer a customised treatment programme using a combination of Physiotherapy, Clinical Pilates and / or Feldenkrais. This process begins with a comprehensive 40 minute individual assessment. We examine the bio mechanics of your movement, looking for possible underlying causes, or factors which may be aggravating your pain. Our aim is to promote independent self-management in the shortest possible time frame.
Many of our clients have computer based work and we frequently treat conditions such as Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Tendonitis, Tendonosis, De Quervain's Syndrome, Tennis Elbow (Lateral Epicondylitis), Golfer's Elbow (Medial Epicondylitis) and Trigger Finger.

Pictorial Artist Tamara Lujan at Lolo Boutique, October 6, 2017, 6 – 9:30 pm
October 5, 2017 in Downtown Fullerton Art Walk
Pictorial Artist Tamara Lujan has been painting for several decades and has only recently found what she calls her muse. There are some duos of characters which she has created. She paints their adventures of doing this and that. One of the pair is a Little Skeleton and a Crow who are friends by convenience, but learn lessons from one another constantly. There appears to be no end in sight for the goings on between the two. Hopefully, they will allow Tamara to follow along for years to come.
Growing up in Orange County, CA, Tamara was raised by two elementary school tachers who were also very talented Artists. As a child and teen, she was brought to all types of museums and galleries, festivals and art fairs. This gave her the art-bug and it has never left. In the late 1990's, she worked for a local amusement park as their charge lead scenic painter and later she worked for other amusement parks too, creating artistic enhancements and special event projects for them. Currently, she enjoys creating her own art in her local Studio here in Fullerton. she spends her free time with her wonderful husband, pre-teen son, two huskies and a couple of black cats … for luck.

A letter sent to Nestlé Ireland in 2005. No reply has been received to date.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing you to voice my concerns for your Kit Kat product. I've discontinued purchasing it for the reasons stated in this letter. I of course continue to buy your other fine products but Kit Kats are now forbidden in my household.
The packaging of a Kit Kat bar is red. Red is both the colour of the Devil (Satan, the Prince of Darkness, Lucifer, Beelzebub, Baal) and Communism. I do not know the country in which your company was founded but I do not support anything other than Democracy in Ireland, brotherland of America.
Also your package label contain warnings for nuts for those allergic to them but there is no warning for the lactose intolerant. You are selling milk chocolate which could easily down someone suffering from the affliction with a mild stomach pain. I feel that one third to a half of the front of the wrapper should be dedicated to a lactose warning.
Finally, on this day, the birthday of Jennifer Aniston, I've found a passage in the bible that supports my concerns. Mainly, my concern of using damaged Kit Kat bars as part of new bars. This is similar to feeding cows to living cows. I do not wish to get Chocolate Spongiform Encephalopathy from your products. The passage is as follows:
"And if the burnt sacrifice for his offering to the LORD be of fowls, then he shall bring his offering of turtledoves, or of young pigeons." (Leviticus 1:14)
Yours Sincerely,
Steve Higginson

THE maritime union has accused the owners of a Newcastle coal terminal of "continued belligerence" amid an ongoing industrial dispute at the facility.
More than 200 employees of Port Waratah Coal Services (PWCS) attended a four-hour mass rally in Newcastle on Wednesday where they unanimously voted for a two-week campaign of protected action.
The action will include eight, 12 and 24-hour stoppages as well as bans on overtime and working outside classifications, the unions representing them said in a joint statement.
The Maritime Union of Australia (MUA) says PWCS is trying to remove limits on the use of contractors and give employees less say over work hours and shifts.
In a statement on Thursday, the MUA said it was determined to resolve the dispute.
"The message we received from the members is one of great disappointment about the company's continued belligerence and attacks on their job security," MUA Newcastle Branch Secretary, Glen Williams, said.
Mr Williams said the union was considering all its legal options.
Mining giant Rio Tinto, through its subsidiary Coal and Allied, is a shareholder in PWCS.

They also revealed the time of baby's arrival. The couple is going to be parents in January 2021. Wishes are pouring in for the expecting couple.
Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli:
Anushka and Virat will be parents for the first time. They have been married for three years now. The couple had a dreamy wedding in Italy in Dec 2017. Prior to making their relationship official, they dated for several years.
Virat and Anushka rarely got time to spend with each other owing to their work commitments. However, the lockdown has been a blessing for both of them as the couple finally got a chance to be with each other.
During the lockdown, they posted cute pictures and videos of themselves. In one of them, Anushka was seen trimming hubby Virat's hair and the video went viral overnight.
They also actively took part in spreading awareness about Coronavirus pandemic and encouraged their fans to take necessary precautions as laid down by the government.
On the work front, Anushka was last seen in 2018 film 'Zero' also starring Shahrukh Khan and Katrina Kaif. She has recently produced web-series Pataal Lok and Bulbul. Both of them are streaming on OTT platforms.
This is the second pregnancy announcement from Bollywood. A few days ago, Kareena Kapoor made the big announcement revealing that she is expecting her second baby. They issued a public statement that reads, "We are very pleased to announce that we are expecting an addition to our family!! Thank you to all our well-wishers for all their love and support. — Saif and Kareena."
Kareena and Saif are parents to baby Taimur who will be turning four this year.

Fuse Theater Review: Is This Musical Really Necessary?
After four movie versions of Alexandre Dumas's nineteenth-century novel, does it make any sense to make a musical out of The Three Musketeers? The film versions efficiently present the book's mix of comic book mayhem and romance and are available on DVD and video.
By Bill Marx
I can't think of any successful swashbuckling musicals, except for Cyrano, which ran for 49 performances on Broadway in 1973. For over a decade, the creators of The Three Musketeers musical have been trying to buck the trend. I admire their tenacity, but I am skeptical about the effort. Anyone who has read Dumas's overstuffed book (I did years ago) can testify to the plot's exhausting round-de-lay of digressions and blithe lack of dramatic focus. Publishers paid by the word in those days, and Dumas (along with his team of ghost writers) figured that over seven hundred pages of convolution meant more cash.
The Boston reviews of the North Shore Music Theatre production of The Three Musketeers, a New England premiere said to be Broadway bound, were mixed, though I found two unadulterated raves. Most critics didn't go so far as to question the wisdom of the project, but donned the Elliot Norton play-doctor smock, offering prescriptions for how the patient could be perked up or cured, sensibly suggesting that the plot-heavy musical should take its cues from the streamlined movie versions of the Dumas book. Variety reports the producers are open to ideas for revision. Who knows, maybe the critics are coming up with the right medicine?
But is a musical version of Dumas's epic ramble of an adventure novel, as Carolyn Clay of the Boston Phoenix believes, a good idea? Yes, the show comes with instant name recognition. But besides snaring the attention of audiences eager for an action-oriented retread of Les Misérables, what is the point? Perhaps it is boomer nostalgia for the movie versions of the Dumas yarn. A slew of new shows, such as Young Frankenstein, Legally Blond, and Xanadu, proffer the same vampiric relationship with Hollywood.
In truth, The Three Musketeers may be showing its age. A new translation of the tome was published about a year ago, and critics took the occasion to speculate about the story's appeal, which some found to be slipping badly. The New York Times reviewer argued that the "pure nuttiness" of Dumas's eccentric prose, along with the contortions of the book's plot, makes The Three Musketeers peculiarly modern. In Slate, Michael Wood perceptively talked about how the ungainly book differs from the sentimentalized movie versions.
"Conspiracy is everything, and the more pointless the better. This is the novel's most infuriating feature if you are looking for straightforward sense and consequence, and one of its most subtle forms of appeal if you are ready to see d'Artagnan as some sort of cousin to Balzac's Rastignac and Stendhal's Julien Sorel. These are Young Men from the Provinces and they are going to make it. Making it, then as now, in France and elsewhere, requires a total indifference to what else gets made or unmade in the process."
Dumas is one of the first examples of the writer as a manufacturer of fiction; he managed an assembly line of scribblers who spit out novels and plays for which he took the credit. So it should come as no surprise that underneath the charming derring-do trappings of his historical romance – the acrobatic swordplay, coarse melodrama, and sexcapades – sits a steely celebration of men and women doing anything to get ahead.
George Bernard Shaw admired the energetic amorality of Dumas's fiction and plays, reveling in their "humorous clearsightedness… his stories are always light-hearted and free from that pressure of moral responsibility without which an Englishman would burst like a fish dragged up from the floors of the Atlantic deep." American musicals trumpet "moral responsibility" and Dumas is no inspirational tearjerker on the order of Victor Hugo. The Three Musketeers has been repeatedly Hollywoodized, so why make a musical version of the Dumas warhorse? At this point, I think an attraction at a theme park, along the lines of Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean, makes more sense.

As you may have heard, the Pasadena Public Health Department has recommended that the Pasadena Unified School District take additional measures in response to a community member testing for COVID-19. While there is no cause for alarm in Pasadena, and while the individual is self-isolating, it is a reminder that the situation in each of our communities is fluid and that we must continue to take important precautions to ensure health and safety.
Since the first case of coronavirus in Los Angeles County, we have taken proactive steps to ensure the health and safety of our students and staff:
- Consult with local, county, and state medical and education officials to monitor the latest developments and coordinate our local efforts.
- Encourage increased handwashing to our students and staff while at school
- Our team will continue spending additional time and increasing its frequency of disinfecting, especially in regard to high-traffic areas and touchpoints including handrails, push bars, light switches, water fountains, and computers.
- Soap dispensers are checked at least twice daily and continuously refilled.
- Our transportation department has increased its cleaning protocols by disinfecting buses each school day.
We are also reviewing and updating our response plan. Part of our plan includes the ability to continue to offer our students an education remotely in the case of school closures. A survey was distributed today to all students to determine a baseline for access.
On March 20, 2020, during our professional day of learning, we will discuss remote learning opportunities. During this process, we have also determined that our vehicle for immediate communication is not as robust as we need for emergency operations. We will be investigating the most effective and immediate platform that can be utilized to ensure seamless communication – from teachers, from schools, and from the district. As soon as plans are finalized, I will provide additional information.
The LA County Department of Public Health (LACDPH) has also updated the criteria for identifying and excluding students who are ill. They are asking that school districts exclude students and staff members with a productive moist cough – and that even those without fever should stay home.
Before new students enroll in any of our schools, they are asked about travel. Any families that have recently traveled internationally must have been in the United States for 14 days and healthy before enrolling and entering our schools. These precautionary measures are in addition to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's travel restrictions and monitoring at airports, including the Los Angeles International Airport.
Our top priority is the health and safety of our students and staff, and we take this responsibility very seriously. We also encourage you to follow us on our Facebook page and visit us on our website where we will continue to share additional coronavirus information and Monrovia Unified news.
I am hopeful that, by continuing to work together and by following the guidance provided by the experts, we can help keep our students, staff, and community healthy. Thank you for your continued support for Monrovia Unified's students and staff.

Agnes Copeland 12 Aug 1884 - 29 Aug 1929
Agnes was born in Dun Echt in 1884. According to her sister Fanny's memoirs, the day after she was born, when the other children were allowed in to see her the clock struck and she turned her head towards it. This resulted in her mother announcing that she could hear already and would thus be a musician.
She appears to have been a very nervous girl - probably the pressure from her mother who seems to have been a very domineering woman! There are many references to her playing the violin and the various models of same that she acquired. At one point she was sent off to Germany to stay with friends to recover from what was presumably a nervous breakdown.
She turns up at her sister Fanny's house in Bedford in the 1901 census. In 1918 when her sister Paula died she is recorded as living at 153 Colinton Road, Edinburgh. She moved to Bridge of Allan (Blooming Field) where she was resident at the time of her death in 1929. She died of pneumonia (suffered for 5 days) in Murray's Royal Asylum in Perth at 12.15 a.m. on August 29th. She was just 45 years old. Her death was registered by a Steward, Andrew Emslie, rather than by her mother or brother. According to Fanny's memoirs she caught the flu in 1918 from which she never completely recovered.
She is buried in Morningside Cemetery, Edinburgh, with her father, mother and sister Paula.

Photo by Tony Nungaray for Insomniac Events
Written by Mark Apuzzo
New Year's Eve is a magical night filled with friends, family, people we love, and… aliens? Maybe not for most people, but if you attended this year's Countdown NYE festival they definitely were. Insomniac brought outer space down to Earth for a night, in what was one of the most spectacular New Year's Eve parties I've ever been to. Before you even entered the NOS Center grounds you are greeted by the fluctuating voice of an alien informing attendees where to go and what to do. Once you were inside the festival, it was clear that extraterrestrials had landed here. UFOs and aliens were scattered throughout the grounds creating a wonderfully martian atmosphere.
They didn't stop with just props though. Roving troupes of actors in all sorts of costumes and makeup wandered the grounds adding a living touch to this galactic party. Astronauts danced through streets and Martians crept and contorted between tents. In the Solar Flare Garden you could take a ride on their neon Gravitron ride or grab a drink inside a UFO at the Starship Exodus bar. Huge arched pillars spewed fire next to a pond that glistened with the reflections of thousands of lights.
Feeling frisky or maybe need to warm up a bit from the cold winds? Patrons could go to Area 151: Intergalactic Bar and Lounge, which included an alien redlight district filled with pole dancing aliens, a full bar, heaters, and DJ sets from Cats and Boots Records all night long.
But despite all these wonderful distractions and several more, the reason we're all here is for the artists, and boy did they deliver! With four different stages to choose from there were some hard choices to make for who you were gonna be seeing in this jam-packed night. One of the first sets of the night for me was Yultron, at The Mothership stage. It's always harder for early acts to get the crowd really revved up but Yultron brought an exciting and fresh flare to some iconic tracks, one of my personal favorites being "Shelter" by Porter Robinson and Madeon. The young DJ had the whole crowd dancing and cheering by the time he wrapped up his set.
Then it was off to GG Magree for me. The Australia native brought the heat and got my headbanging neck loosened up for me as she blasted me with her unique brand of bass music at the Nebula stage. She had a great stage presence as she encouraged "all the sexy people out there" to get down and dirty. These two stages would occupy the majority of my time for the night. The two stages were the house stage and the bass stage respectively. Area 51 hosted most of the dubstep with acts like Dion Timmer, Herobust, and Snails while the Twilight Zone hosted the Techno and Tech House artists such as Solardo, Camelphat, and Shiba San to name a few.
The absolute hands-down best set of the whole night, in my opinion, was not any of the midnight headliners nor any big-name artists, but K?d. K?d, if you haven't heard of him yet, doesn't fit neatly into any one genre of electronic music. I would say he's a blend of house, bass, tech, and future bass, with the occasional sprinkle of dubstep. His set was by far the most artistic and captivating set I saw the whole night. For starters, almost every track he played in his hour set was original music. It was refreshing since artists quite often like to remix other people's songs and you end up hearing songs over and over again in a night, but not K?d.
Patrick Cybulski (K?d) isn't in it for the fame it seems, which is apparent because he doesn't even present himself on stage during his set. Instead, he has created a virtual robotic avatar known as "Glitch Boy" who dominated the LED screens. Glitch Boy was the one leading the show, syncing perfectly with the music. We watched as he progressed from a chained up, dark, dubstep-y creature, to a radiant being—shooting lasers from his hands, and everything in-between. I was completely enthralled for the entire time only peeling my eyes away for moments when the lights and lasers became a little too intense for me. The whole show truly felt like an inspired, artistically driven set made from the heart. K?d was being true to himself and his music and it was beautiful to watch.
Immediately after, Alison Wonderland took the stage. She would be my midnight countdown artist so I was really excited to see what she would bring to the table, and she did not disappoint. She played a good blend of her own original tracks mixed with some classics remixed into her own style. She had the crowd dancing, singing, and headbanging away until out of nowhere the music cut out and the lights went off. Everyone's confusion and frustration soon cleared way once people realized it was two minutes till midnight and this was actually the beginning of the countdown. Two aliens appeared on the screen to inform us that they would be abducting "our leader Alison Wonderland" now, but as their tractor beam, fueled by the lasers in the dome, tried to carry her up the countdown began. As midnight struck, the aliens abandoned their failed plan and left us all to rage the rest of the night away.
There were two time slots left after midnight, so for the last two hours attendees left it all on the dance floor as we welcomed in the new year. As the last hours passed, everyone began to slowly leave. We may have had to return to the real world, but the memory of this night would be seared into our minds for years to come.

Prior to this past weekend, the Chicago Bulls were more or less cruising along just fine without reigning MVP Derrick Rose, who had sat out the four previous games with back spasms. But the walls caved in on Saturday when the Bulls lost to the New Jersey Nets by the score of 97-85, and it wasn't nearly that close for most of the contest. As the Miami Heat continue to steamroll their competition, Rose's potential return will loom larger and larger over every game.
Rose is being called a game-time decision for today's match up vs. the Atlanta Hawks, but Rose has been teetering on the edge of playing for at least a week now. According to head coach Tom Thibodeau, Rose's practice regiment was increased some over the weekend, but the team has reiterated that Rose will play whenever he is fully healthy.
Another cause for concern is that the Hawks whipped a fully healthy Bulls squad in the teams' last match up in early January, and may be the best team that Chicago has faced since Rose has been out. Thibodeau and the Bulls front office will continue to play the long game with Rose's health, but another performance like the one vs. the Nets may force their hand, if it hasn't been forced already.
Game date/time: Monday, February 20, 2011, 3:00 p.m. CST
Location: United Center, Chicago, Ill.
Odds: No line
