IQ Option Binary Options Using Martingale Trading Strategy
How to earn $200 a day in the comfort of yourhomeé I earn with binary options, namely with Iq Optionbroker. Why Iq Optioné Because it has the highest rates for transactions, i.e. Iq Option hasup to 92% payments per one deal! I also find it very convenient because theywithdraw money within 3 days, but in fact it's much more quickly – three days aregiven taking weekends into account. I use a Martingale strategy! What is the Martingalestrategyé You place a bet, you lost – your next bet doubles. But this strategy does notquite fit binary options, so I upgraded it a bit. In my strategy, I bet a completelydifferent sums and each time in the opposite
direction. Why is thaté Because if there isa longterm trend, we won't be able to win the position, so we need to play in the oppositedirections. This is how it works.We bet $1, for example, for a fall, and if suddenly our position does not win, the next$3 we bet for a rise already. If the position wins, we still bet for a rise, but $1. Ifwe lost $3, we bet $8 and so on. The table of bets is shows in the corner of the screen.So, we have bet $1 for a fall, and it won. Now we need to bet $1 for a rise.The Martingale strategy has never failed me, and I have never reached the 7th bet, i.e.I never had to bet $191. Therefore, I'm 100%
confident in my strategy!You don't have to be a genius or have any economic education to understand how it works.So, we bet $1 for a rise, and now we wait for this position to close.We won again. Actually, I want to show you the loss.But now we bet $1 for a fall again and wait for the result.Before, I worked at the factory for 10 hours a day and got paid peanuts. But after I knewabout Iq Option and binary options, I finally quit the factory and I do not regret it.My friends were shocked when they learned that I quit and went travelling; everyonewanted to know how I make my living. I didn't
conceal it from my friends, and some of themalso began to earn good money with IQ Option. Here at last we lost the first bet, and nowwe need to bet $3 in the opposite direction. A friend of mine still has a job, but he downloadedan app on his phone and is quite successfully trading in his spare time, for example whilein traffic jams. Our $3 bet lost and this is even good, becauseI am sure that we have to win the next bet! Now we bet for a fall in the opposite directionand wait for the results of the next bet, but now we have bet $8. Why do we bet $8éTo win back our previous losses. So it turns out that we earn about $1 per minute.I earn from $200 to $500 a day!
And now our bet won. We return to the $1 betand place it in the opposite direction, i.e. for a rise.If something is not clear to you, you can follow the link in the description or visitthe website that you see in the tutorial, you can find my contacts there, ask me any questionand get the relevant bonuses from me. Our bet loses again and we now need to bet$3 in the opposite direction, i.e. for a fall. IqOption often arranges promotions and providesa variety of bonuses for both beginners and regular brokers. Sign on the link in the descriptionand track the promotions! We have got our $3 back is now we again bet$1 for a rise. Actually, I kill the clock
only because I want to show you a protractedseries of losses, demonstrate how to behave in a given situation. The most important thingin my strategy is not to panic and not to deviate from the strategy, do everything clearlyand without emotion. We won the previous bet, and now we bet $1for a fall. I hope we will lose now and I can show you a series.In the near future, I am going to raise my initial bet to $10 – now I bet $1, but Iwant to start with $10, thus earning ten times more. I'm 100% confident in my strategy, andif you have any doubts, you can simply register a demo account and try trading using thisstrategy – you will be surprised how easy
How To Use Support And Resistance Lines When Trading Binary Options
Hi there.I am often asked in the comments how to determine the point of entry into the Martingale strategy.Today I'll show you how to use support and resistance levels in Binary options. We set the chart for 15minute or 5minutetimeframe. We use the Line tool and find the level of resistance by the tops of the candles. We find the level of support by the lowestlevels of the chart in the same way. And now we watch for the chart to reach orbreak through one of the levels – in this case we are betting in the opposite direction.Let's open 4 windows with different positions
– it will be much faster in this way. Wedo the same thing in all the windows. Here we see the first touching of the level,and I bet $10 in the opposite direction. And in the meantime, we watch the other positions.Here we see touching of the support level on eurodollar Position. We bet $10. Great, our first two bets have triggered.Levels must be rearranged from time to time. And we wait for the next touching of the level. And here again we see the resistance levelbroken through, and we bet $10 for a fall. You should wait until either a touching ora breakthrough. We see that our bet does not
win, so I prepare $30 in advance and againbet for a fall using a Martingale strategy. I hope you know the table of bets; if youdon't, I will write in the description below the tutorial. Here we see the breakthrough and bet $10.And according to the Martingale strategy, we bet $180 as our bid didn't trigger.Now euro dollar lost and we bet 30 for a rise. Pound dollar – bet 30 for a fall.Now, bet 180 on the euro dollar. And now all of our three bets have won, weare just waiting for eurodollar. We are waiting for our bet of $180 to triggerWell, we lose the 180 bet, and then we bet
440, and I think that this bet will triggerfor sure. Now we see that the chart is back and we'llwin our bets. Here you can see my bets for the entire period.If you liked the tutorial, put likes, share with friends, subscribe to my RSS feed.
Binary Options How To Trade Binary Options Using Martingale Strategy
Binary Options, my dear friends and followers! This is Matthew Coleman again with you and now we show you as usual, how I make money on the binary option platform, called IQoption. I've been trading on binary option for a few years and during this time I found strategy that works with no mistakes and I made money with it for a long time. Here is $1,400 on myaccount, you see it's real money, it's real account. There is no demo mark below my name and now I'll trade on your eyes and show you how it works. So I will use the Martingale system, Martingale principle, which will allow me tomake good money and work on this binary option.
It's main principle: if we lose our bet next time we have to make a stake, which is two and a half times bigger then the lost one. And once we win we get back tothe very first initial bet. So here I made a bet of $100 and I won and I have $188 after this bet. So I have one this bet and now I make the same $100 bet. Here we go. I make a bet. I predict that the currency paragraph will go down, but as we can see I might be mistaken and in the case if I lose this bet next time I will have to make a stake of $250 and even if I lose that stake of $250, my next bet will be $625, which is two and a half times bigger then lost one. Here I see I won this bet again so I make an initial bet of $100 and I made a Put bet.
So I anticipatethat the currency graph will go down after my bet. So most of the traders have to win 6070% of their bet to stay profitable during time. And they do all this difficult things like technical analysis, indicator some the graph, learn international economics and so long. But in our case we can lose 3, 4, 5 ormore bet in row but we need to win only once and after that we get our profit. So in this system (Martingale system) we can lose a few bet in a row, but once we win, only one single bet, it will cover all our previous losses and even get profit. So in our case now I have lost $100 bet and I will make a bet of $250.
So I made this bet and now see how it works. If we win this bet our profit will be $470, so it covers all our previous losses and all these stakes. So it covers this stake of $250 and the previous bet of $100 and gives us a little profit in this operate This Martingale system is quite simple but in the same time I think only the most clever of you will completely understand it and start to make good money with it. So you see I've lost a first bet of $100 and then I have one bet of $250. And get a profit of $470. Right on your eyes you see how easy is to make money with this system,
but if you don't use this system you may really lose your money. So I was working on this binary options platformfor a long long time and I found that this system, Martingale system principle is the only thing that helps to make good money without risks. After I won the bet of $250 I go back to my first bet of $100 and now you see I have won again Here is $188 profit everytime Okey, I will make. Oh, not very good moment but that's ok. Our Martingale system will let us win in any case. I start from $100, so my first initial bet is $100, because I have enough money on my account
I have $1,684 on my account But you can start from any amounts, you know which is proportional to your deposit amount So less money you have on your account the less stakes you made We don't analyze Forex market deeply, instead of this we have a perfect moneymanagement system, which allow us to stay profitable all the time See one again. I make a Put bet, so I predict that the graph of the currency pair will go down. That's why for us is no difference which assets we use for our trading.

How's the weather?
The random crap thread is getting kind of long. We have a winter storm on the way. It's been just rain so far this year. I understand the storm is in Virginia right now.
Tim, what's happening down there?
Tim, what's happening down there?
Hey Stu, most snow we've had here in the beach in years. Probably will set a record. Not bad by most peoples standard's, 5-8 inches accumulated, but here in Va Beach, the city and VDOT just aren't set up for snow removal. Right now it's not bad, because the temps are hanging around 32 F, but it's supposed to dip into the 20's tonight, and if that happens, it'll freeze, and we'll be in lockdown for a few days until the sun can do it's thing. Might make the city and VDOT rethink their snow removal capabilities.
Yeah on the accidents. Most people down here aren't used to snow and or ice, and couple that with no snow removal except the Interstates, it's causing a mess. Most all business are shut down until at least Tues.stuward wrote:That is a lot for you. I read on the internet that Virginia has had over 200 car accidents so far.

I have put in my quota of years in snow country (Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Eastern Washington, Idaho, North Dakota) so now I'm allowed to stay in warm, balmy places! All the rest of you--enjoy! Have fun shoveling, sliding, or (better yet) stay home by the fire.

It is well known that the world is urbanising and cities are globalising. But there is another trend which has been quietly developing in parallel, and has received significantly less attention: Global business is urbanizing.
In a literal sense, businesses are urbanising by moving their operations into central city districts. But global firms are also putting cities at the very top of their agendas. They are developing city-branded services and offerings, like IBM's SmarterCities initiative or Citibank's Citi for Cities brand, and are also financing urban research and playing a part in driving urban policy.
Corporate focus on cities is logical – cities are big business and are getting bigger. Growing markets in urban services, lifestyle and asset capitalization are ripe for exploitation. Problems for cities present opportunities for businesses to innovate. A UK Government report published in October 2013 estimates that the global Smart Cities market will be worth $400 billion by 2020. Cities are also useful to businesses as a branding tool, as a means of fulfilling CSR imperatives, or as an organising principle around which they can arrange other offerings, in climate change, sustainability, competitiveness, infrastructure, logistics and place-making.
The Business of Cities advises corporations on how to become 'city-smart' and works with cities to analyse, understand and embrace this latest urban trend.

"Dyslexic Achievers"
Fortune Magazine has examined the successes of prominent CEOs and top executives to show that even a challenge as great as dyslexia can be met and overcome. Featured is celebrated trial attorney David Boies, whose son, battling with dyslexia all his life, graduated from Hamilton summa cum laude. Boies comments, "In this environment you get young children who think they are masters of the universe, and children who think they are failures, when they're 10 years old. They're both wrong. And neither is well served by that misconception."
Other top executives featured in the article include: Richard Branson, who developed Virgin Records and Virgin Atlantic Airways; Charles Schwab, who virtually created the discount brokerage business; and John Chambers, a CEO of Cisco.
The article also includes a list of other "dyslexic achievers," including Cher, Erin Brockovich Ellis, Whoopi Goldberg, Bill Hewlett, Bruce Jenner, Jay Leno, Nolan Ryan and Nelson Rockefeller to name a few.

"Hey man."
I'm talking to a tinted window in the darkest corner of the parking lot. I know he's in there. He opens the door and I hand him his Yosemite guidebooks and a can of fuel from REI. My neighbor in this blacktop neighborhood is Alik, a friendly Canadian who's in the same training course that I'm taking. Our conversation naturally turns to climbing. We're forced to raise our voices as we're approached by a bizarre machine that I can only describe as a huge vacuum cleaner mounted on a truck.
"You guys are weird." He says, referring to my country as a whole.
"I'VE never seen one of those things." I say, weakly defending myself.
"What, you don't hang out in parking lots in Reno much?" He says with a smile. It's good to be around other people who get it. Alik is on a climbing trip with vague plans. I'm readjusting to life on the road, after two years of a feeble attempt at "settling." It left me with enough money for a ticket to Peru and a car that I can live in. When sprngtime hit, nothing could have kept me in Durango. I chased a girl to Squamish and almost missed my course in Reno. The weather, among other things, had turned almost perfect.
"I gave up on looking for a chinese place and went to the grocery store." I say, pointing to the host of our parking lot. "And guess what they sell in the Deli!" Alik laughs at my discovery of the cheapest chinese food in Reno. He tells me about an online post by Alex Honnold on soloing Monkeyfinger.
"I'll check it out. I can get Starbucks' internet in my car now.
"Is that why you moved 4 spaces over?" He asks.
"Uh, yeah actually."
Alik, who's coincidentally on the road after 2 years of "normal" life as well, gives a grin and points out the absurdity of the moment. "It's a strange life we live."
I realize how right he is and chime in. "Getting chinese food from a grocery store, and hunting for free internet so that we can read about what soloing Monkeyfinger is like?"
"Exactly. And dealing with... that." He points accross the parking lot to where the giant Chevy vacuum is humming along, cleaning vacant spaces. We both can't help but break out laughing. As we revel in our ridiculous situation, the significance of it sinks in. I haven't enjoyed my life this much in a long time. When I was younger, I took this lifestyle for granted. Now I see beauty in every single silly thing I go through to achieve it. Appreciation is a wonderful thing.
A few days later, we pass our exam and drive to Lover's Leap to bag some classics. I free solo my first rock route. We spot Fred Beckey, 89 and still crushing. My mind, in a weird place from the past week's various physical and emotional challenges, urges me back to Colorado. I leave for Peru in less than two weeks.
So now I'm headed East through Nevada, weaving my tires between lizards and the odd bird. As it turns out, Nevada has the kinds of roads that you can drive while also writing on a laptop. I'm on my way to the Black Canyon to test my skills before heading back to Durango. The hand jam in my steering wheel feels good, and I can't help but see beauty in more things every day.

April 12, 2014 10:00 ET
MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC--(Marketwired - April 12, 2014) - A group of children accompanied by their families experienced a very special day at Montréal-Trudeau airport today as part of the Premium Kids program, which organizes airport process familiarization days for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) or functional limitations.
Nearly an hundred children, accompanied by family members, had an opportunity to become acquainted with a typical traveller's journey through an airport, starting with arrival at the terminal parking lot, right up until the aircraft boarding and passenger-safety announcement.
"Following the success of the pilot project and the positive comments we received, we decided to make this an annual program," said Christiane Beaulieu, Vice-President, Public Affairs and Communications, Aéroports de Montréal (ADM). "Today's activity is important for the families, but also for ADM. It enables us to better identify the needs and expectations of the families, and in this way we can improve our services to airport users."
For his part, Jean-François Lemay, General Manager of event partner Air Transat, said: "Preparing children for the experience of flying is essential for a successful family trip. This step is all the more important for parents of children with an ASD. That is why we are pleased to be the official partner airline of the Premium Kids program." Mr. Lemay added: "Our priority is to offer our passengers an exceptional, pleasant and safe experience, no matter their limitations. Air Transat provides an extensive range of information services to families travelling aboard its flights and Premium Kids is a natural extension of this."
This event is organized by ADM jointly with the following partners: Autisme et troubles envahissants du développement Montréal (ATEDM), the Giant Steps organization, Special Olympics Québec, Air Transat, Transport Canada, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), the Canadian Air Transport Security Authority (CATSA), Securitas, HMSHost, Sweet Factory, Runway Duty Free and the Montréal Airport Marriott Hotel.
ADM is Canada's first airport authority to introduce such a program, which is inspired by a similar initiative, "Wings for Autism," created more than three years ago by the Charles River Center in collaboration with the Massachusetts Port Authority Logan International Airport, Boston).
About Aéroports de Montréal

Well, once again I don't have much to talk about for gaming, but I got some general information.
First, some books: I am still plugging away at knocking out the Ian Fleming's 'James Bond' series in chronological order. I am well over half way through the For Your Eyes Only book, which is really a collection of 5 short stories. I will probably be starting Thunderball early next week. On Monday and Wednesday of this week I had to do a bit of driving, so I listened to several radio plays and knocked out listening to Dead Mountain, which is about the Dyatlov Pass disaster. This one was sort of narrative of what was known to have happen to the hikers and a travel log of the author's travels to Russia to follow the hikers route. This one book also gives a realistic reason for what happen, like the book I read last year (even though it has the misleading UFO picture on the cover.) I am getting ready to start listening to the audio book, Gallipoli by Peter FitzSimons. It has some great reviews and the author is a respected journalist who also written several other books on the history of Australia that I look forward to reading or listening to (Ned Kelly, Mawson and the Antarctica explorers, Eureka Stockade, Tobruk, and Kokoda.)
A Kickstarter or two: While I am supporting a couple of different Kickstarters, there is one that I figure most of you would be interested to know about and that is 'Ghostbusters: The Board Game'. How can anyone not like the Ghostbusters! It is only a couple days into it and they are over $430K raised, plus another 27 days to go. Besides the subject matter, what is cool about it is that it is a co-op game up to 4 players or a solo board game. Check it out at this link. Also, if you like paper terrain, check out the Fat Dragon Games' Kickstarter for Wilderness Adventures at this link.
A House: A bit of personal good news. After my last house mortgage payment, I only own $146 (yes, one hundred and forty-six dollars) on my house. Whoo-ho!
One Particular Harbour: So a bit of local news, Jimmy Buffett is coming to St Louis in June for a party! I am planning to be in attendance since I have been a Parrothead since 1983 when I first heard his song, 'One Particular Harbour.' I rarely ever go to concerts, but I got to go see Jimmy as it has been ages since the last time I saw him in concert.
So as a final touch, I will sign off this entry with a YouTube clip of Jimmy Buffett's 'One Particular Harbour'.

"Firework Drawings" is a selection of large-scale works on paper created using live fireworks and their pigments. Employing this distinctive medium in a performative process, Fiore strikes a balance between control and chance, the lasting and the evanescent.
This dynamic selection demonstrates a strong interplay between powdery, amorphous ground and a complex and sophisticated manipulation of line, color and collage that in turn translates the raw energy and refined excitement of a fireworks display.
Presented as part of the 2013 deFINE ART program
Reception: Tuesday, Feb. 19, 6:30-8 p.m.
The exhibition is free with SCAD Museum of Art admission.
The reception is free and open to the public as part of the deFINE ART gallery hop.

Guest poem sent in by Vidur
(Poem #1234) Peonies
This morning the green fists of the peonies are getting ready to break my heart as the sun rises, as the sun strokes them with his old, buttery fingers and they open - pools of lace, white and pink - and all day the black ants climb over them, boring their deep and mysterious holes into the curls, craving the sweet sap, taking it away to their dark, underground cities - and all day under the shifty wind, as in a dance to the great wedding, the flowers bend their bright bodies, and tip their fragrance to the air, and rise, their red stems holding all that dampness and recklessness gladly and lightly, and there it is again - beauty the brave, the exemplary, blazing open. Do you love this world? Do you cherish your humble and silky life? Do you adore the green grass, with its terror beneath? Do you also hurry, half-dressed and barefoot, into the garden, and softly, and exclaiming of their dearness, fill your arms with the white and pink flowers, with their honeyed heaviness, their lush trembling, their eagerness to be wild and perfect for a moment, before they are nothing, forever?
I'm a little behind on my minstrels reading, so I just got to the poem by Louis Gluck that Alan sent in (Poem #1224). To borrow from his dead-on comment, the truly wonderful nature poets "say something beyond description while still keeping one's description exact". I recently discovered Mary Oliver at a used book sale, and simply had to send in one of her poems. A celebrated American poet, she won the Pulitzer in '84. Some of the poems are exquisite. 'Peonies' is from the book 'New and Selected Poems', which earned her the National Book Award for poetry. It is perhaps more representative of her style and themes than 'Wild Geese' is, although the latter is her most quoted poem (and I see was run on Minstrels some time ago). I can't really speak for anyone else, but I do wish that I could be 'wild and perfect for a moment', even if I'm 'nothing forever' after. best, :v: [Martin adds] This is one of those rare poems that packs a little extra punch in both its opening and its closing lines. Indeed, despite the poised beauty of "wild and perfect for a moment, before they are nothing forever", I think my favourite line in a lovely poem is "the green fists of the peonies are getting ready to break my heart". Poignant, yet as Alan said and Vidur concurred, an undeniably exact description.

'Eau Des Sens' is described as a 'confusion of the senses' thanks to the complexity of the notes and the warming freshness that it provides the wearer. They say: "It's a Diptyque adventure; as soon as you think you understand it and possess its secrets, it changes directions and reveals disconcerting woody and spicy facets. Eau des Sens is well-rounded, harmonious and 'blue like an orange' on a green bough in the sunshine of the South of France. Eau des Sens deepens with the breath inhaling its woody notes freshened by ginger." Although you instantly breathe in the delightful citrus orange notes, this evolves to leave a green base that's complemented by warming ginger and earthy wood.
A harmonius cocktail of orange blossom, juniper berry and patchouli definitely make this a rather unexpected, yet addictive and totally unisex, scent that will definitely put Diptyque back in the game. I often find that Diptyque scents are overly floral, a little bit too rich or convey something that's perfect for a candle but not necessarily a fragrance you want to apply to pulse points. This is so different I'm amazed it's come from the same brand. Although the accompanying candle and soap are fabulous additions to your home decor, it's the fragrance that I'm excited about - and will no doubt be reaching for all summer long. It's taken a while, but I'm finally a convert.
Are you a fan of the Diptyque fragrances? Or does this sound like the perfect scent for you?
The Diptyque 'Eau Des Sens' fragrance is available now, priced from £60.00.

Tasty Tuesday: Atta Biscuits
Breads and biscuits is something I am very proud to say I cannot leave without. I dunno why, but breads and biscuits have been my choice of snack ever since I was younger. I mean, put a bread and a bag of chips in front of me and I am for sure without any hesitation pick the bread. Anyway, speaking of breads and biscuits here is a recipe from Seven Spoons called Atta Biscuits which I am definitely adding to my "must trys".
1 cup atta, see note
2 tablespoons natural cane sugar, be a little generous
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces
1/4 cup milk, or thereabouts
Preheat an oven to 425°F (220°C) with a rack in the upper third. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium bowl, stir together the atta, sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry cutter, two blunt knives or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it's a fairly even meal — you don't want any large flakes of butter remaining.
With a fork, stir in just enough milk for the dough start to come away from the sides of the bowl. Gently press the dough into a cohesive ball, then turn it out onto a clean work surface.
Roll the dough out to a 6-by-8-inch rectangle, then cut it into 24 1-by-1 1/2-inch pieces. Use the tines of a fork to press marks into each. Transfer the biscuits to the baking sheet, with at least 1/4-inch in between.
Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are puffed and golden, around 15 minutes.
Remove the cookies from pan to a baking rack for at least 5 minutes before eating. The biscuits will crisp as they sit. Fully-cooled biscuits can be kept in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days.

this is this weeks layout for my classes. We had loads of fun today doing the classes. The girls are really excited as I have put out a $5.00 challenge pack. The girls go into the running for $50 worth of products to win.
My next project is I am doing up a 50th wedding anniversary album. I am feeling a little overwhelmed from this as I have to go through, heaps of albums. I think I will try and break the 50 years up into events. So I will get started on that in the next few days.
Keep posted to see what I come up with.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (Legal Newsline) - Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster announced on Friday that he is seeking a court order against a dairy to destroy contaminated cheese products.
Morningland Dairy products produced this year at the company's Mountain View facility tested positive for the bacterial pathogens Listeria Monocytogenes and Staphylococcus Aureus. Although the company voluntarily recalled all of these products, the products remain in the company's warehouse and it refuses to destroy them.
Under the supervision of the State Milk Board, the dairy sent 14 samples of cheese to a St. Louis laboratory. All of the products tested positive for Staphylococcus Aureus and six of the samples tested positive for Listeria Monocytogenes.
On Oct. 1, the State Milk Board condemned all cheese products the company manufactured between Jan. 1-Aug. 26 and ordered that they be destroyed.
"Testing in California and Missouri confirms that the cheese produced during the Jan. 1-Aug. 26 timeframe is contaminated with dangerous pathogens," Koster said.
"The safety of Missouri consumers is paramount. Because this company refuses to destroy the contaminated product we are asking the court to order them to do so."
Koster is seeking preliminary and permanent injunctions ordering Morningland to destroy the condemned cheese and prohibiting the company from engaging in any further violations of the Missouri Dairy Law.
He has also requested that Morningland be required to follow established State Milk Board regulations for the production of cheese products and pay all litigation costs.

Oblique London have recently started their Oblique Worldwide Series. This means that no matter where you are in the world you can find amazing places to visit. Oblique Worldwide is a series of blog pieces that will document their team's experiences in different parts of the world and suggest the most oblique places for you to visit.
A few weeks ago the Oblique team decided to take a cheeky city break and visit one of the world's most beautiful and cultural cities, Barcelona. What a weekend it was, a combination of incredible food, amazing drinks, great weather and most importantly, super Oblique people. What we loved most was the dramatic slow down in the pace of life but also getting lost in Barcelona's seductive time warp.
It is no secret that Barcelona is a mecca for foodies and we were definitely not disappointed. Apart from Spanish tapas, Barcelona has become the home of the most advanced and innovative form of cooking, 'molecular gastronomy'. Barcelona's Ferran Adria, founder of the infamous 'El Buli' changed the way that we experience food. He created undoubtedly the most controversial and experimental restaurant in the world but also triggered a paradigm shift in the way that we understand food and flavour.
It is for this very reason that when in Barcelona you must take time and put some money aside to visit one the city's many 'gastronomic labs'. Now that El Buli is closed, the place to visit is the new Adria establishment called 'Tickets'. A different concept to El Buli, but you will still find some of the classics. Unfortunately, we were not able to get a reservation as it does get booked up months in advance but nonetheless we still recommend a visit here if you can.
Another must is Sauc restaurant situated in the Ohla hotel right at the heart of Barcelona. Started by chef Xavier Franco it has been rewarded a Michelin star and delivers the highest quality Catalan food. He focuses sourcing local produce and using the seasonal ingredients to create a journey through Catalan. Our favourite dishes were the 'creamy duck liver, cookie onion, lemon and sweet wine' and 'the wild boar tenderloin'.
Tapas and Spain are synonymous of each other. Our pick is a super relaxed and casual spot called Ten's. Started by Jordi Cruz who already boasts 4 Michelin stars to his name, it epitomises everything that Tapas should be, simple, fresh and clean. The food was excellent and the service even better. Our pick of the dishes were the following: 'Coal-smoked Cantabrian anchovies with semi-dried tomatoes', 'Tuna tartare with cured egg yolk, lime, green onion, sesame and wasabi' and 'Patatas bravas with foamy aioli and spicy tomato sauce'.
Our last recommendation was found totally by chance and thank god we found it. One of our pet hates about tourist attractions is that surrounding restaurants are always overpriced. After visiting Gaudi's famous Sagrada La Familia we wanted to grab a bite to eat but couldn't find anything. We then stumbled along this small little place that can only be described as #sooblique. It resembled more a tavern in the countryside with legs of jamon hanging around the room. What we loved most was the story of the place, started by 3 friends who moved to Barcelona from different countries. They created such a welcoming environment which made us want to stay there all afternoon. The food was simple and delicious, so please go and say hello when in Barcelona and mention the Oblique team.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The sole crude distillation unit at Chevron Corp's large Richmond, California, refinery may be shut for at least four to six months after last week's fire, industry intelligence group IIR Energy said in a report that suggests the outage may be twice as long as feared.
Investigators have found "extensive damage" in the cooling towers, pipe racks and heater tower, IIR Energy told clients on Friday.
Neither Chevron nor investigators have given any timeline for resuming full operations at the 245,000-barrel-per-day plant, California's second largest, following an August 6 fire at its crude unit that caused a spike in regional gasoline prices.
A Chevron spokesman on Monday reiterated only that the No. 4 crude oil unit -- the only one at the plant -- was still shut down while other parts of the plant were operating.
Sources at the refinery said last week the unit could be shuttered for up to three months. The fire erupted at a pump leaking a substance similar to diesel, according to a preliminary report the company filed with county pollution regulators last week.
IIR Energy, which employees hundreds of researchers to gather operational information, first hand, about industrial facilities across the world, said that Chevron had not yet decided whether it would continue to operate some secondary units that are running down on-hand feedstock inventories.
Chevron could buy intermediate feed from the market, although in most cases it is difficult for a refiner that has shut down its crude unit to secure enough of this type of oil to keep producing motor fuels at the same rate. Last week, the plant was producing gasoline at over 50 percent capacity, sources said.
The fire damaged the only atmospheric tower on the CDU, the unit that begins converting crude oil to motor fuel. The CDU makes feedstock for all other units at the refinery.
The blaze, which broke out as workers and the refinery's fire department were evaluating a leak at the pump, sent 949 area residents to an area hospital complaining of respiratory problems and eye irritation among other symptoms.

Pioneer Woman, The
Ree Drummond
Pioneer Woman, The
Black Heels To Tractor Wheels--A Love Story
Release Date: 2/1/2011
LIST PRICE: $25.99 (you save $3.00)
Main description:
I'll never forget that night. It was like a romance novel, an old Broadway musical, and a John Wayne western rolled into one. Out for a quick drink with friends, I wasn't looking to meet anyone, let alone a tall, rugged cowboy who lived on a cattle ranch miles away from my cultured, corporate hometown. But before I knew it, I'd been struck with a lightning bolt . . . and I was completely powerless to stop it.
Read along as I recount the rip-roaring details of my unlikely romance with a chaps-wearing cowboy, from the early days of our courtship (complete with cows, horses, prairie fire, and passion) all the way through the first year of our marriage, which would be filled with more challenge and strife—and manure—than I ever could have expected.
This isn't just my love story; it's a universal tale of passion, romance, and all-encompassing love that sweeps us off our feet.
It's the story of a cowboy.
And Wranglers.
And chaps.
And the girl who fell in love with them.
Review quote:
#2 New York Times Bestseller

Review quote:
"The Pioneer Woman is perfect reading for Valentine's Day, whether you're celebrating a lasting love or still looking for The One. Even the most cynical of readers will be charmed by Drummond's hilarious story of being won over by a cowboy."

Everyone knows whole grains are good for them. The challenge is finding the time to prepare them. That's why Village Harvest created frozen, pre-cooked, whole grains. All you need to do is pour, then heat or thaw, to experience the flavor and texture of freshly simmered grains. It's just that simple!
Village Harvest takes care of the hard part. After cooking whole grains to perfection, we use cryogenic technology to freeze them at -300˚F in order to keep the integrity of every single piece flawless and whole. Compared to other frozen food products which typically never reach temperatures below -40˚F, Village Harvest frozen grains are in a class of their own. Our Whole Grain Creations are seasoned only with naturally delicious ingredients that you can pronounce, because we know purity means quality.
Sure you can eat any Village Harvest frozen whole grain on its own as a side dish or snack, but the unflavored products including: Red Quinoa & Brown Rice; Brown, Red and Wild Rice; Wheatberry & Barley; Farro & Red Rice and Golden Quinoa are excellent ingredients as well. Stir them into soups, sprinkle them over salads or bake them into your favorite breads and muffins. They'll instantly add flavor, texture and dimension to all of your dishes, not to mention that whole grain goodness that's been eluding you for years!

Now that I've gotten 20 references, if I try to cite a reference (say reference number 16), then Paperpile will not reference the same reference number (16) that it does earlier and will instead make a new reference (number 21) so I will have duplicate references. Can you please fix this? Thanks!
Error: duplicating references
I'm having the same problem. May have been because my collaborator worked on the document as a separate .doc, then I applied their changes to my googledoc and each of the references that overlapped made a duplicate.
Would love a fix or even a workaround for the meantime.
I have the same problem only it occurs whenever I open by document on a different machine than I'm currently working on. I've gone from a bibliography with 36 items to 53 just from duplicate & triplicate copies of my references! Manually merging them in a huge pain.
Please fix this!
I also have this problem!
Yes please fix this, or provide a straightforward solution.
I have the same issue.
Hi, I'm having the same problem with duplication of references.
Did anybody find a way or receive an answer to solve that?
Thanks, Valentina
We have figured out how this is most likely happening: when creating a copy of a document, the sidebar is unable to detect duplicates until the document has been formatted at least once. The current best workaround is to always run "Update Citations and Bibliography" after making a copy of a Google Doc.
For existing errors, please remove all in-text citations, go to the gear in the sidebar --> Manage references. Then remove one of the duplicates and re-insert the citations.
I am having the same problem, but this is not fixed by the above suggestions.
The "View all references/Manage References" page will always reflect the current (and past) citations in the document following a formatting. If there are not duplicate entries there, then there will be none in the bibliography. Are you sure that you have removed the duplicate from this page?
hey, just to confirm if I get this right
- the problem is: multiple co-authors contributing the identical references to the document will cause duplictes in the reference list after formatting (which what I am facing).
- the workaround is to unformat citations, remove all in-text citations (manually by going through the text?) and reinserting them all again?
In general, when you add a citation to a document we check it against the existing references in the document and don't allow you to add duplicates.
However, in some cases we have limited or outdated knowledge about which references are in the document, and this can result in duplicates:
Copying references from another document. When you paste text and references from another document, we are not immediately aware of it - we only become aware of it when you format citations, at which point we retrieve the metadata. This may result in duplicates because we make no prioritization among recognized and unrecognized references when formatting the document.
Adding references to a copy of a document before it has been formatted. This is similar to the above case. When you make a copy of a document, we are not aware that it contains citations (since we don't want to process every document you open). It is therefore possible to add duplicates of citations already in the document. From our point of view, it seems like you are writing a new document, then when you format citations, like you copied in all the paragraphs/references from the old document, leading to the same problem. This second cause can be avoided by always formatting a document when you make a copy.
Note that the common use case of colleagues working on the same document does not result in duplicates.
When stuck with duplicates this may be the easiest solution:
Go to the view all references page. Locate the duplicate you want to remove and edit its metadata to something which will clearly identify it (i.e. change the year to 9999).
Format the citations in the document.
Remove all copies of the duplicate citation from the text (manually).
Remove the undesired copy of that citation from the ("View all references") page.
Re-insert the removed citations as normal.
I am trying not to be rude, but it is very… surprising to me that a piece of paid software has such a huge issue, and there is no easier fix than the complicated procedure of removing duplicates and re-inserting them. For a substantial manuscript, this is hours of work to get right, and the stakes are high. Perhaps an effective solution would be to add some feature to merge references / citation keys, e.g. from the "View all references" page.
I unfortunately started this current project using Paperpile, and so it is very difficult to switch away now. But I can't imagine using it again for future projects, due to the number of headaches this issue has caused. Judging based on the comments above, I am not the only one with this problem. Asking your (paying) users to go through an /incredibly/ tedious process to correct this error does not seem like a fair response.

Right and wrong
Steve Jobs announced the new line of Apple iPods today, and my predictions were both right and wrong. (I was in class and then meetings and so only now have been able to catch up with the video broadcast).
Of course, the big news was that Steve Jobs is not dead yet — as he said "I'm vertical" — publicly admitting to the liver transplant from a donor who died in a car accident. He did look haggard, 10 years older than his last public appearance, and was on stage less than 15 minutes.
Before he stepped away from the pdoium, he made a few announcements:
- iPhone: 30 million sold
- iPhone App Store: 75,000 apps, 1.8 billion app downloads (not including updates).
- iTunes 23 countries, 8.5 billion songs, 100 million customers, #1 retailer in the world
- iTunes LP: "Some of us here are old enough that we actually bought LPs. It was great, because you not only got the music but you got great photography, you got liner notes, you got essays. Who could forget some of these classic albums?"
One minor prediction was more on target: Users hate the proprietary headphones on the iPod Shuffle so much that there is now an adaptor to allow third party headphones. It sounds like the main plan is to license rights to the proprietary controls to headphone makers (presumably royalty bearing, raising consumer prices), so it's not clear this really solves the problem. As they say, the devil is in the details.

[IMGCAP(1)]How'd you get the idea for Chrometa?
It's a question I get quite often from friends and acquaintances, which is kind of ironic, because the initial concept for Chrometa, while interesting, has been the least of our worries for the last four years!
Good concepts and ideas are great, but I've found their value to be just about zero. People's perceptions are swayed and biased by the "instant successes" of companies like Groupon and Facebook; in 99.9% of all cases, you don't catch lightning in a bottle that quickly.
In reality, it's all about execution, or the adjustments, pivots and changes you make along the way as you bring your concept to fruition—and, of course, perseverance to see it through!
Whether your firm has a new service to offer, a concept for a commoditized product to sell, a new or revised business model, or simply a new way of doing things at your firm, I thought you'd benefit from hearing the lessons we learned along the way. It's been almost four years since we started full-time development on our dream. Here's the spirited tale of Chrometa's journey from concept to product to polished solution.
March 4, 2009 – Chrometa 1.1 launches (But nobody cares)
After nearly two years of product development we sent out a press release announcing our "First Automatic Time Capture Tool for Attorneys." Fortunately, we didn't expand our team to handle the anticipated barrage of phone calls and sales inquiries – because there weren't any!
Did we have a product professionals were willing to pay for? One month after launch, we weren't exactly sure. We decided to lower our pricing to try and get some kind of market validation. We needed to see if people were willing to pay for our product before we did anything else.
June 3, 2009 – TechnoLawyer covers Chrometa 1.1
TechnoLawyer is an online publication targeted at attorneys who want the latest scoop on legal technology. We thought it would be the perfect advertising medium for us.
This initial coverage from TechnoLawyer (an e-mail to their 13,000 subscribers, plus a blog post) was great in helping to get the ball rolling with product awareness in the legal community. We picked up about 25 customers from it, too – and, more importantly, we solicited key product feedback from active users who showed us what we needed to develop and improve upon.
Our 1.1 release was a decent-to-good product. It wasn't yet great, and without a great product/market fit, it was going to be very challenging for us to get anywhere.
August 5, 2009 – TechnoLawyer (again) on Chrometa 2.0
We finished Chrometa 2.0 around 3 a.m. Pacific time on August 5 – and just six hours later, TechnoLawyer released its coverage to their subscribers. We got more traction on this release than the one from two months ago; we counted 64 installations and even a few sales within the initial 72 hours!
After the initial excitement, then what?
Post-launch, we'd been successful in rising above the noise and clutter, at least for a couple of shining moments. The product fit was much better with our new release, and we were seeing the rewards of our summer development efforts.
This was all great, but we soon hit a bit of a lull after the initial buzz wore off, so we tried to figure out: How can we keep excitement going for a product that's very well received by customers, but is not inherently viral itself?
There was no magic formula for us over the ensuing months to keep the ball moving forward. We just hustled as best as we could by doing the following:
- We called all customers after they bought the product. We wanted to thank them and make sure they were happy with us and our software. We also wanted to learn what they liked and what had motivated them to buy – and we wanted to pick their brains a bit about how we should go about finding other customers like them.
- We reached out to other publications in the legal industry, as well as bloggers and anyone else who covered technology to see if they'd be interested in taking Chrometa for a test spin. We never explicitly asked for a review, but these efforts did result in a number of product reviews.
- Finally, and perhaps most importantly, we rolled out fixes and enhancements to the product as fast as we could; there's nothing like live customer feedback to guide your product development. Continued product improvement was the most important thing we did over this time period.
Our Lessons Learned
1. Focus on one, and only one, initial market. Otherwise it's very easy and tempting to spread yourself too thin. If you're trying to tackle a few initial markets in parallel, you'll become frustrated if you don't move the needle in any of them. It's hard enough to move the needle in one market with a new product.
2. It's easy to get discouraged if things don't ramp as fast as you had hoped. Grit and persistence do pay off. Of course, you want to ramp up adoption and sales in the classic hockey stick fashion, but it rarely happens this way in practice. As long as your customers are paying for your product – and they are happy with it after their purchase – you are doing fine. That means the fundamentals of your situation are good. And you just need to go find more customers – and that is very doable. Easier said than done, but doable
3. Buzz and coverage won't necessarily make your business. We've been covered by major mainstream and industry sources – and you'd be surprised what actually has and has not moved the needle for us. One example I always use is our very first piece of media coverage, by none other than Inc. Magazine. How cool, right? While it was very cool for us personally, our product wasn't yet ready for prime time – AND, the coverage wasn't exactly geared toward a Chrometa prospect since the article was more about raising angel funding. The overall effect of this particular piece was somewhat smaller than you might expect. I'd say the tendency for us optimistic entrepreneurs is to overestimate that effect.
Bottom Line: It's very tough to get traction when you're starting off. You want nothing more than for people to care about your new concept. You expected instant hockey curve growth, but you'll still struggle to get a few users.
… And before every overnight success are hundreds of not-so-successful days.
Be patient, measure your progress and focus on the purest fundamentals – namely improving your offering and keeping your customers thrilled. If you can get these two things right, the rest should eventually fall into place. Keep at it – you'll get there!

This large 3-tier diaper cake was custom ordered to celebrate the arrival of Ari's baby girl. The request called for a theme of yellow or pink and centered around a Disney character. Hence, we created this Disney-centric diaper cake which featured lots of Winnie the Pooh. Oh, and Tigger was found hanging about to join in the fun 🙂
Lots and lots of baby items got into this diaper cake as well. Just the diapers or nappies alone amounts to 98 pieces! Practical, useful and quality baby items for the little girl. The ingredients we used are:
- 98 pcs Huggies disposable diapers (Size S and M)
- 1 Disney Pooh bodysuit
- 1 Disney Pooh long sleeve shirt
- 1 Disney Pooh long pant
- 1 Disney Pooh cap

Study: psych drug ads made unsubstantiated claims
Drug companies either would not or could not provide sources to substantiate half of claims made in journal ads for psychiatric drugs and devices, according to a study published in The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease.
The study looked at claims made in 69 journal ads that ran in four titles – Archives of General Psychiatry, The American Journal of Psychiatry, The New England Journal of Medicine and The Journal of the American Medical Association – in 2005. Of those, 53 made promotional claims deemed relevant to the survey – 327 claims, in total. Thirty-eight ads provided at least one attainable source that could be used to check the veracity of at least one claim found in the ad, the study said. But of all 327 claims made, only 45% provided an initially attainable source, and another 5% could be substantiated by sources provided by the manufacturer upon request. Of claims related to the drug's efficacy, the largest number of claims, 53% were supported by an attainable source.
The study's authors mailed requests for substantiating data on claims made in 29 ads to nine companies and received replies from only three. "One of which provided a summary of results from various studies, one of which provided three journal article reprints and one of which provided a letter denying information on the basis that it was against company policy to provide such data," they wrote.
The study's main author, Glen Spielmans, an assistant psychology professor at Metropolitan State University in St. Paul, MN, told the blog Pharmalot: "Physicians frequently read medical journals - at least we hope they do. Market research says they do. And we know physicians can be influenced by an ad. So, if they're going to prescribe, perhaps based in part on advertising, we hope the advertising is accurate. But when claims are made that aren't supported, the impression created is overly optimistic. It's possible that the claims are true, but because data wasn't reported and isn't easily obtained or verified, we don't really know."
Spielmans, who says he's skeptical of many psychiatric meds, previously authored a study on advertising for Eli Lilly's Cymbalta which found some claims misleading, Pharmalot noted.

Lindsay Pulsipher Previews Juliette-esque Role in Hatfields & McCoysMatt Richenthal at . Comments
Lindsay Pulsipher plays a key role in the upcoming History Channel mini-series Hatfields & McCoys, but allow her to make one thing clear, for all those who know her best from her most recent role:
Roseanna McCoy is the "complete opposite of Crystal Norris," the actress told me over the phone, referring to her True Blood were-panther from season four of that HBO hit. "Roseanne is soft and sweet and innocent."
Still, that won't stop the character from getting involved in a pretty major scandal.
Hatfields & McCoys is based on the true story of two families that feuded after the Civil War. Its impressive cast is anchored by Kevin Costner as Devil Anse Hatfield and Bill Paxton as Randall McCoy.
Pulsipher portrays Roseanna, Randall's daughter and the love interest of Matt Barr's Johnse Hatfield (above).
"Roseanna is the Juliette in this story, the star says. "She falls in love with a forbidden man and her journey is all about how she struggles to come to terms with that. Will she betray her family? Will she be accepted as a Hatfield?"
To get into character, Pulsipher said she enjoyed conducting research into that era. She studied paintings. She read letters soldiers sent home from the way. Was it a challenge to play a real person?
"You don't know her personally, so it was fun for me to bring her to life. I just took her basic story and added my own mannerisms," Pulsipher said.
She also got to work with Paxton as her fictional father and Mare Winningham as her fictional mother, gushing over the experience of sharing the screen with such veterans.
"To work with such iconic actors, I learned so much just by observing, just acting in scenes with them," Pulsipher said, noting how she especially bonded with Winningham and referring to her as a "second mother" on set.
Overall, Pulsipher teases an "amazing arc" ahead for Roseanna, who starts in one place and, when we leave her, "ends up somewhere totally different."
Hatfields & McCoys airs Monday, May 28 at 8 p.m. on History and then at the same time on May 29 and May 30. It also stars Tom Berenger as Jim Vance; Powers Boothe as Wall Hatfield, Devil Anse's older brother; and Sarah Parish as Devil Anse's wife Levicy.

Their way of life is entirely unexpected from the other, and the solid method for that sort of living ought to be a sample to us.
Hunza individuals are individuals who wash up in a frosty water, and they can give a birth to an infant on 65 years which for us is unfathomable.
In summer they eat just crude nourishments and in winter they utilize dry organic products, particularly apricots, sprouted seeds and cheddar from sheep.
"Hunger spring" is known as the period when they are fasting, and then they don't eat anything with the exception of the beverage clean water.
From 2 to 4 months they drink that water, and expend the apricot seeds.
One of the Hunza people, known worldwide as Said Abdul Mobuda, totally confused the workers for immigration services when he pulled out his passport on which was written that he has 160 years.
They didn't trust him until they watched that the man is truly born 160 years back and that in his town all the general population have long lifetime.
We can take in something from them, isn't that so?

Beepcheeks – Responsive Day Out 2
Last Friday was Responsive Day Out 2: The Squishening, the follow up to last year's inaugural Responsive Day Out conference in Brighton hosted by Jeremy Keith. The event takes a very different approach than most, cutting back on everything from lunch to lanyards and even an after-party, opting for cheaper than average tickets and focussing on a great speaker line-up instead. However, nothing seems lacking on the day; attendees adorned only with a small Clear Left sticker flocked to the event even more readily than many I've attended.
The day also has a slightly different format to many other conferences; shorter talks on a similar theme, grouped together and followed by a discussion between the group of speakers, moderated by Jeremy with questions from himself and some from the audience. It made for a much more flowing day, it never felt like there were too many talks or a talk out of place in the flow of the day. I think more could have been made of the discussion sections though, it would have been nice to have more time with the three speakers sharing ideas and discussing each other's points, they seemed to come to an end a bit too quickly for me, an opinion shared by the few people I spoke to after.
Stand outs
The content of the day overall was great as well with not a single talk failing to bring something to the conversation. Talks grouped into themes of planning/process, technology, and the bigger picture all gave a different viewpoint to the subject of responsive design. Stand out talks for me included Ida Aalen's case study about the work she did for the Norwegian Cancer Society talking about the Core Model, as well as Oliver Reichenstein's talk about information architecture (well at least I think that was the main topic).
These two talks stood out for me because of their joint focus on content and about just how much that has an effect on the work we do. Regular musings by Oliver that of course we're all "doing things the right way" acquiring content first and building from it. While of course tongue-in-cheek, it a reminder that there's a reason content architecture can end up very backwards; the result being hideous trees of content that often get deeper and more complex the more time/money is put into a project. This is why I liked the core model idea Ida spoke about. Core content decided on by mixing user needs with business goals and letting it help define the structure of your site, then pushing the lower priority business goals to be connected through outward paths from this core content.
A technical side of responsive too
I was really happy to see Dan Donald's talk about element queries come to this setting. I've seen the talk before at the more technical conference State of the Browser (his talk was recorded there too), but to see it in a more design/big thinking conference was good. A lot of talk afterwards mentioned that elements queries talk might be at the point where talk of responsive images was 2-3 years ago, where browser vendors saying it can't be done and well look at it now. If this is going to be taken seriously it's important that we keep talking about it and pushing browser vendors for these features.
Another technical talk, this time from Rachel Andrew spoke about the Grids layout module spec in CSS3 with some practical examples of how it will work. The implementation is only in Chrome Canary behind a flag at the moment but it's great to see it starting to appear in browsers. The implementation seems to have evolved well since when Rachel first wrote about it in 24 ways when it was just an Internet Explorer implementation. I'm really looking forward to this coming to more browsers in the near future, it really will make a huge difference when laying out content. I'm also inclined to agree with Rachel when she mentioned that grids would be a better implementation for overall page layout as opposed to flex box which will be more useful when it comes to UI components. Rachel has also written up her experiments with the Chrome implementation of Grids.
Too much good to choose from
It would be easy to keep going and say great things about everyone's talks but I want to keep this to a short post. For more there's already some great coverage from Ida and Orde if you want to find out more about the rest of content from the day. I enjoyed every talk and took something away from each, I have 20+ pages of scribbled notes in my notebook, there was so much great content that came from the day.
One little bonus for me was Sally Jenkinson using Batman as a role model in her talk as well as showing the original panel with the famous "with great power comes great responsibility" quote. Nice one Sally!
Final Thoughts
More conferences should take note here, I see a lot of conferences doing blind submissions and audience voting as a way of promoting fairness in submissions, which is great. But, to get the best out of your conference, to do the best for your attendees and for your speakers, good curation and planning will always win out. Jeremy puts together two fantastic conferences in Responsive Day Out and dConstruct, both of which I will have attended for the first time by the end of the year and I don't think there's a coincidence in that. Responsive Day Out was a truly fantastic conference, and it was all down to the curation of the conference, because quite literally there wasn't anything else. Thanks Jeremy, I look forward to dConstruct and seeing what you have planned for Responsive Day Out next year.
The recordings of the talks have been released, I highly recommend listening to Oliver and Ida's talk if you get chance, as well as all of the discussions at the end of each section.

At least 15 killed in latest bout of Iraqi bloodshed
Twin suicide bombings at a Shiite mosque in north Iraq were the deadliest in attacks nationwide that killed 15 people Saturday, amid a surge in bloodshed authorities have failed to quell.
The violence, which has killed more than 200 people in the past week alone, has forced Iraq to appeal for international help in combatting militancy just months ahead of its first general election in four years.
Officials have also voiced concern over a resurgent Al-Qaeda emboldened by the civil war in neighbouring Syria which has provided the jihadist network's front groups in Iraq with increased room to plan operations.
Attacks on Saturday struck mostly in the north, although Baghdad was also hit.
The deadliest violence was in Tuz Khurmatu, where a suicide car bombing followed by a suicide attack targeting a Shiite mosque killed at least 10 people and wounded 45, according to a police colonel and town mayor Shallal Abdul.
The initial blast was at 5:30 pm (1430 GMT) near the Imam Ali mosque, which is in the middle of a crowded market and near offices of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, the party of ailing Iraqi President Jalal Talabani.
Shortly afterwards, a suicide bomber blew himself up at the entrance to the mosque.
"I am sure the attack was carried out by Al-Qaeda," said Abdul.
"There is major destruction and damage in the area, because it (the mosque) is located in the centre of a market."
Tuz Khurmatu, an ethnically mixed town, lies in the middle of a tract of disputed territory that Iraq's Kurds want to incorporate into their autonomous northern region over the objections of the central government.
Militant groups often exploit poor communication between the two sides' security forces in order to carry out attacks, and Tuz Khurmatu is frequently hit by violence.
Unrest in Baghdad and two cities in the north — Tal Afar, which is mostly Shiite Turkmen, and Sunni Arab Tikrit — left five other people dead, officials said.
No group has claimed responsibility for the rise in violence, but Sunni militants linked to Al-Qaeda often launch attacks on both Shiites and Sunnis, ostensibly in a bid to undermine confidence in the authorities.
The government and security forces have insisted that raids and operations across much of western and northern Iraq, areas dominated by the country's Sunni minority, are having an impact.
But diplomats, analysts and human rights groups say the government is not doing enough to address the root causes of the unrest, particularly disquiet among Sunnis over alleged mistreatment at the hands of the Shiite-led authorities.
Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki has called for Washington's help in the form of greater intelligence-sharing and the timely delivery of new weapons systems.

Refunds will be discussed on a case by case basis, if no other resolutions can be made.
Of course, we must display the usual disclaimers that need to be said when discussing handmade items:1) No two items will be 100% exactly alike. Especially with carded fiber batts!2) Veggie Matter. There will be some veggie matter. I start with raw fleece straight off the sheep. It is skirted (the grunge parts discarded). Then it is washed (dirt & lanolin removed, some veggie matter will dissolve during this step), & rinsed. Then the wool is dyed - another process that removes some more veggie matter. Then the wool goes thru the wool picker to fluff up the fibers - this step also removing more veggie matter. Then the wool is carded on a drum carder - which removes even more veggie matter. While carding, I will hand pick out any more veggie matter that caught my eye. I tend to card all the single colors individually, so as to remove veggie matter. Then the colors are measured out, run thru the picker again (to help mix the colors - and still removing any veggie matter still have survived all the processes so far). Then one final carding blending the colors into one glorious batt! (again, once more with eye inspection to hand pick out any stragglers). If any veggie matter remains at this point, well, the final stage of veggie matter removal occurs while spinning the wool, so there will be some veggie matter. Hopefully, all these processes will have removed the vast majority of the veggie matter leaving just a few bits here and there.


text: Burnett loses as Kraft realigns int'l foods work Published on December 22, 1997. Leo Burnett Co. was the big loser in a realignment of Kraft International Foods brands. Burnett lost its worldwide mayonnaise business to J. Walter Thompson Co., which handles the brands in the U.S. A spokesman said the moves were to consolidate along brand lines. Ogilvy & Mather, the U.S. agency for Maxwell House, got the brand in Germany from Y&R Advertising. Y&R picked up Suchard confections in some European markets, including the Bulgarian business from O&M. O&M will be agency of record for Tang in all markets except the Philippines, where JWT, given its strength in that market, keeps the business. Kraft said the shifts were "minor in terms of billings changes except in the case of Leo Burnett."Copyright December 1997, Crain Communications Inc. Most Popular In this article: News

Explore the untamed and diverse landscape of Ecuador in this nature-focused tour of the country's South
Beyond the Galapagos Islands and beaches that most travellers associate with Ecuador is a land of breathtaking mountain ranges and colourful communities that live in their foothills. Run your hands over the rugged edges of Ecuador in this tour, exploring the dense forests and eden-esque valleys that comprise some of the most beautiful vistas in all of the Americas. This trip offers the opportunity to explore the essential spots, from the charming montane town of Cuenca to the lush and laid-back Vilcabamba.
The ingenious design of medieval fortress town Cuenca sees beautiful buildings built into the jagged cliffs the city is built on
Walk through the dense and mist-laden elfin forest of Podocarpus National Park, where high-elevation results in miniature, moss covered trees
Barter over brightly coloured handwoven textiles at the Otavalo market, nestled in a valley under three mountain peaks
This trip visits places that are at high altitude, and as a result some people can suffer from altitude sickness, regardless of age or physical health. Please see the 'Health' section of the trip notes for more important information on this.
It's important to wear sunscreen and other sun protection, and always drink plenty of water.
This trip involves a lot of walking, though not much of it is overly strenuous. The trip is recommended for those with a moderate level of fitness but there are also a few different trail options to suit your interests and physical capabilities. Please bring durable footwear suitable to hiking. See the 'What to Take' section of the trip notes for more information.
Trip search is unavailable.
There are currently no scheduled departures on our Southern Ecuador Highlights trip. If you are interested in other trips in the region visit one of the links below.
Just as a heads up before you book: this trip is new to our range this year. And while we have thoroughly researched every detail of the logistics, new destinations can sometimes throw us some unexpected surprises. More often than not, it'll be a great surprise. But every now and again there might be a hiccup. We like to think that's what puts the 'adventure' in 'adventure travel'.
