Migrants from the two latter eras still represent the genetic heritage of most Irish people.[88][89] Gaelic tradition expanded and became the dominant form over time. Irish people are a combination of Gaelic, Norse, Anglo-Norman, English, Scottish, French, and Welsh ancestry.
The population of Ireland stood at 4,588,252 in 2011, an increase of 8.2% since 2006.[90] As of 2011, Ireland had the highest birth rate in the European Union (16 births per 1,000 of population).[91] In 2012, 35.1% of births were to unmarried women.[92] Annual population growth rates exceeded 2% during the 2002-2006 intercensal period, which was attributed to high rates of natural increase and immigration.[93] This rate declined somewhat during the subsequent 2006-2011 intercensal period, with an average annual percentage change of 1.6%.
At the time of 2011 census, the number of non-Irish nationals was recorded at 544,357, comprising 12% of the total population. This is up nearly 2.5 times the number of non-Irish nationals recorded in the 2002 (224,261), when the question of nationality was asked for the first time. The five largest non-national cohorts were Polish (122,585), UK (112,259), Lithuanian (36,683), Latvian (20,593) and Nigerian (17,642) respectively.[94]
An ESRI report from 2006 found that 35% of migrants surveyed reported having experienced harassment on the street, on public transport or in public places.
However, discrimination was not experienced equally among immigrants. North Africans and Asians generally experienced much lower levels of discrimination than black south/central Africans, as did Central Europeans from the more recent newcomers to the European Union (mainly Poles after Poland joined the EU as a full member in 2004), who comprise the majority of Irish immigrants. In the same survey, immigrants reported being most likely to socialise with people from their own country of origin in Ireland, followed by Irish people. Although this varied too between regional groups with Asians, for example, reporting the least difficulty in socialising with Irish people and North Africans reporting the most difficulty.
Celts. Diachronic distribution of Celtic peoples: core Hallstatt territory, by the 6th century BC maximal Celtic expansion, by 275 BC Lusitanian area of Iberia where Celtic presence is uncertain The Celts (/ˈkɛlts/, occasionally /ˈsɛlts/, see pronunciation of Celtic) or Kelts were an ethnolinguistic group of tribal societies in Iron Age and Medieval Europe who spoke Celtic languages and had a similar culture,[1] although the relationship between the ethnic, linguistic and cultural elements remains uncertain and controversial.
The earliest undisputed direct examples of a Celtic language are the Lepontic inscriptions, beginning in the 6th century BC.[6] Continental Celtic languages are attested almost exclusively through inscriptions and place-names. Names and terminology Continental Celts are the Celtic-speaking people of mainland Europe and Insular Celts are the Celtic-speaking peoples of the British and Irish islands and their descendants. Origins. Demographics of the Republic of Ireland. Ireland had a population of 4,581,269 as of the 2011 census.[1] Demographic history[edit]
Irish population analysis. The population of the island of Ireland in 2012 was approximately 6.4 million comprising 4.58 million in the Republic of Ireland with another 1.8 million in Northern Ireland.
Although this is a significant growth over recent years, it is lower than historical figures. Below are some statistics to illustrate the rise, fall and rise again of the population since 1841. The statistics also illustrate a massive population shift from the west to the east of the country and increasing urbanisation. Counties such as Mayo, Roscommon, Donegal and Leitrim have become depopulated while counties surrounding Dublin including Wicklow, Kildare, Louth and Meath have seen rapid population growth in recent years. Historical country population[edit]
Healthcare. Healthcare in the Republic of Ireland. The HSE is responsible for providing health and personal social services to everyone living in Ireland.
Health care in Ireland is two-tier: public and private sectors exist. The public health care system is governed by the Health Act 2004,[1] which established a new body to be responsible for providing health and personal social services to everyone living in Ireland – the Health Service Executive. The new national health service came into being officially on 1 January 2005; however the new structures are currently in the process of being established as the reform programme continues. In addition to the public-sector, there is also a large private healthcare market. In 2010 Ireland spent €2,862 per capita on health, compared to a European Union average of €2,172 per capita,[2] of this spending approximately 79% was government expenditure.[3] Health care system[edit] Total health spending as a percentage of GDP for Ireland compared amongst various other first world nations from 2005 to 2008.
Education in the Republic of Ireland. The levels of education in Ireland are primary, secondary and higher (often known as "third-level") education.
In recent years further education has grown immensely. Growth in the economy since the 1960s has driven much of the change in the education system. Education in Ireland is free at all levels, including college (university), but only for students applying from the European Union.[1] For universities there are student service fees (up to €2,500 in 2013)[2] which students are required to pay on registration, to cover examinations, insurance and registration costs.[3][4] Introduction[edit] In 1973 the requirement to pass the Irish language in order to receive a second-level certificate was dropped[7] although a student attending a school which receives public money must be taught the language.
Years[edit] Education. Religion in the Republic of Ireland. Religion.

MILAN — Charms — of the handbag, not the personal or bracelet, kind — are having another moment in Milan. From furry tails at Versace to Kigurumi-style characters at Fendi, a vagabond's accumulated souvenirs at Prada (worn not just on the tote but also the neck, the belt, anywhere a tchotchke can dangle), and leather tassels at Tod's, the trend for accessory individualization has hit new heights.
And forms.
Following the stickers that gave a major boost to last year's bottom line for the London luxury handbag queen Anya Hindmarch has come Valextra's interchangeable resin magnets: multicolored moveable circles and squares and triangles that add a touch of cheerful levity to the brand's classic clutches, totes and backpacks.
Consider it ready-to-play.

Chang An-lo, former leader of the Bamboo Union triad in Taiwan and a pro-China activist, on Tuesday led hundreds of people to confront students who have occupied the island's parliament since March 18 in a protest against the cross-strait service trade pact, Liberty Times reported Wednesday. Police were hand to prevent clashes between the two sides, it said. Chang, nicknamed White Wolf, provoked the students with harsh words, saying the student leaders were actually acting as the agents of some politicians. The students engaged in intense quarrels with Chang who ended his confrontation at 5 pm, the report said.

About Us
Welcome to the IPS
The International Phytotechnology Society (IPS) is a nonprofit, worldwide professional society comprised of individuals and institutions engaged in the science and application of using plants to deal with environmental problems.
IPS's mission is to promote research, education, training, and application of those technologies that use plants to deal with problems of environmental contamination, carbon sequestration, alternative fuels, and ecological restoration.
IPS is open to all researchers, practitioners, regulators, site owners and interested and concerned individuals who want to promote a natural way to deal with environmental problems.
Phytotechnologies are the use of plants to remedy environmental problems. Plants can be used to clean or contain contaminants from soil, sediments, or water. Planted systems can degrade organic pollutants and extract heavy metals. Plants can be used to restore impacted ecosystems, provide biofuel, sequester carbon, improve air quality, and beneficially impact our environment. Advances have been made in research to identify and optimize plant capability to reduce risk and enhance environmental benefits. This Society is devoted to bringing together the science, engineering, and applications of phytotechnologies worldwide.
Phytotechnology Areas:
- Remediating environmental contaminants
- Ecorestoration and habitat creation
- Biofuels
- Green roof technologies
- Carbon sequestration
- Vegetative landfill caps
- Engineered wetland systems
Plants will not tolerate certain conditions. Too much pollution, water, salt or other variables can kill the plants in the system. Water solubility of the pollutants effects the system. Plants also have mechanisms to halt the uptake of substances and may not remove a contaminate completely in an acceptable time frame.

I came across Liza Flume because the Dublin based (Aussie born) singer-songwriter was named as support for Slow Skies EP launch (in Dublin, tomorrow 8th October -details).
Her latest track "Sleepless Nights" sounds like an aide for such, a softening, delicate beauty which wraps you in a comforting black and washes your worries away with a hushed, beautiful vocal and a sparse, almost-non existent wave of slow-burning electronics. The result is just devastating.
"Sleepless Nights" is the first track taken from Liza's forthcoming EP. It's instantly one to keep an eye out for.

(Note: When I say "Gate Agent" in the following post, I mean – the check-in agent at departures. It's just "Gate Agent" is shorter.)
Well, that was an ordeal.
I don't fly much – two or three times a year – and other than delays of one kind or another, I've never experienced the high-tension moment of Hey.. this thing might not happen….
Well…we just did, and while it all worked out, it was an interesting experience of customer service – good and bad.
The exact shape of this trip was uncertain really up until last week. The excuse for the trip was my speaking engagement on Sunday. There were two complications, though: First, my older son finally – after having his application in since August – got a job at Publix, bagging. He didn't start really working until mid-May, and had a couple of big chunks of the summer he was going to have to ask off for already, and so would we really want him to have to ask for another chunk so soon after getting going in the job? Probably not.
The other constraint is my younger son's piano camp, which begins Monday…and when I'd accepted the invitation to speak, for some reason, I thought the talk was on Saturday…but then realized it's actually on Sunday afternoon, which meant a Sunday night return was absolutely necessary…and of course Sunday night can be just about one of the most expensive times to try to fly…..What to do?
True to my nature, I dithered about, griped that we didn't live in Atlanta where you can get day-of flights to NYC for under $200, and tried to figure out how to get up there with the most people, but spending the least amount of money. And should I use miles or pay? I did consider just shooting up there myself from Saturday to Sunday – that was a possibility, as well.
I finally decided – and my older son agreed – that we would just cut him out of the trip. He has a bigger trip with a friend coming up later in the summer, so I hoped that would be some consolation, along with the paycheck he'd be earning in our absence.
So I finally booked a flight for my younger son and me, and I also gritted my teeth and used miles. For the first time in my life, I actually had some miles, thanks to an airline credit card and a couple of European flights. I really didn't want to spend them on flights to New York City, but the cost of flying back Sunday night was so ridiculous, I finally decided to go ahead and let them go – and do you know what? It's very good I did.
I booked M and me for a Wednesday to Sunday flight. J would be here with the car, but not completely alone because his law-student sister is doing internships in Birmingham this summer and staying much of the week at our place.
But then…..last week, J got his schedule for this week. He wasn't assigned to work during the weekcays– only the weekends. Maybe he could come after all?
And since it wouldn't make sense to have him fly up with us on Wednesday if he would just have to leave Friday, I thought…wait….I booked our flights on miles…I can probably just change them….
And I could. Of course, I could have changed paid fares as well, but it would have cost hundreds of dollars, and…I wouldn't have done that.
So I spent a long time on the phone one day last week with a very nice customer service agent who helped me get all of these changes and new tickets straightened out, for a very minimal fee. I ended up booking J's flight with his miles on the way up, and paying for a one-way ticket for his return. Still….a lot cheaper than it would have been otherwise. All good, right?
You know it. Not.
I went online to check us in 24 hours before the flight. M and I checked in fine, but J's came back saying that he'd have to check in at the airport.
At that point…I should have called to see what was up.
But honestly? I read the email and the itinerary on his account very carefully. It had the flights from Birmingham listed, and it said, Status: Ticketed. What was I supposed to think except that because it was an award ticket from a minor's reward account booked separately from the parent, they needed an extra step at the airport to confirm? Seemed reasonable.
We got to the airport about 90 minutes before the flight. Got to the desk. Presented ID's. The gate agent started typing. Everything seemed fine, then after a couple of minutes, she squinted at the screen and said, "I have him ticketed on the return flights, but there's no ticket for this one."
Wait, what? Look at this email. There's that word: ticketed.
Condensed version: There was, indeed, a reservation for the flight up, but no ticket. I have no idea how that happened, but apparently the agent last week had not charged me those fees for the award ticket, and so there was no actual ticket (although she had told me what they were and I assumed they were charged – I'm typing this on the plane, so I can't check my credit card account, but I will later). And no, Gate Agent couldn't issue the ticket. I'd have to get on the phone with the awards desk.
Okay. We stepped aside, and I called. There's bad weather today, so they're busy. It took about ten minutes to reach a person, and when I did, she was very nice. She studied things on her end and agreed…yes there was a reservation, but no ticket. Somehow, that final step hadn't happened. She told me to go back up to the gate and she'd talk to the gate agent.
I had to wait behind one other person. I got up to the same gate agent. I said, "You need to talk to this person at the Awards Desk – she'll tell you what to do."
Gate Agent said, "Can't she just issue you the ticket?"
I asked. Awards Desk said no she couldn't, because you can't buy tickets over the phone less than two hours before a flight departs. And yah, we're under that line now.
Again, Awards Desk said, "Let me talk her through it." I handed my phone in the direction of Gate Agent.
Gate Agent shook her head and waved it away. "I can't talk on the cell phone."
Okay, then. I conveyed this message.
Awards Desk said, "Um, what? Okay, well tell her…"
And I spent several minutes relaying instructions and responses between the two of them back and forth until finally in frustration, Gate Agent agreed to Break a Rule and talk on my cell phone. After a few minutes of that she handed it back, shaking her head, and the minute I took it, Awards Desk practically exploded:
She's not even listening to me. She's interrupting me and not listening to what I'm telling her to do. She doesn't know what she's doing – she needs to get a supervisor. It's not hard. Your son's ticket is in the system. She just doesn't know where to look.
Meanwhile…the clock ticks on. Thank goodness there was just enough of a delay so that I wasn't super uptight about missing the flight…if the ticket could be issued. If it couldn't, that was another story.
Finally, Gate Agent agreed to call her own Help Desk. That took many, many, many minutes in which Gate Agent was trying to figure out how she could see what people on the phone were seeing in their systems – that there was a ticket, and all I had to do was pay the fee to get it – and she couldn't.
All this time, Awards Desk was still on the phone with me, and finally she broke our Silence of Anticipation and said, "Okay, I'm going to see if I can get that two hour restriction waived…."
So at this point, I'm on hold with Awards Desk, Gate Agent is on hold with her Help Desk, and we've been at this for about forty-five minutes now. I really have no idea what's going to happen when finally – finally – Awards Desk comes back on the line with the glorious good news that she's done it – and once again, communicating through me, she instructs Gate Agent how to find this ticket in the ether.
All right, so it worked out, and here we are, in the air, experiencing the miracle of flight. I'm grateful. But it was a very interesting experience of customer service – all from the same airline.
(And I'll say, that once we got on the plane, the flight attendant, although clearly ready for a break, offered us different seats so we could A) be not so spread out yet B) still each have our own row. So that was nice, too.)
I don't know what happened. I don't know how that first leg actually didn't get ticketed after all. I should have called when we couldn't check in. All that's fine. I'm not going to rail against that mess -up because I don't know what the problem was and who was at fault.
But what I will rail about is Gate Agent's Attitude.
She couldn't care less. Her indifference was palpable and astonishing.
Here she is, presented with a family group in which one of the kids might not be able to fly with the rest of the family. What? Isn't that kind of a bad situation? No, they're not little kids, but still. It's kind of a big deal when your minor kid can't fly with the rest of the family. That's a problem.
But not to her. She never said anything like, Oh, that's a problem – we need to fix this. Or: We can't have that happen – let me try to help you figure this out. Her face was like a stone – except when she spied a co-worker across the way, broke into a big smile which disappeared as soon as she returned to our situation. She was short, uninterested in finding a solution and did not say or do anything which indicated she was even faking sympathy.
Hey, I get it. It's a stressful job. She deals with a ton of almost-disasters every day, and the space in front of her desk is taken up with aggravated and angry customers. Everyone eventually goes away, the problems get solved and if they don't, life goes on. So why invest anything but the minimum in any one of these situations?
Kind of a Life Question, too, I guess.
So there you go. 2/3 of the people from this airline I've dealt with on this trip have been great, and kudos to them (and they'll get them – I've gotten into the habit of getting the names of particularly helpful customer service employees and trying, in some way to commend them. They are all under such pressure to perform – it matters, I think) – but Gate Agent?
You know that when people from your own airline are angry and frustrated with your demeanor and willing to let a customer hear that….you might have a problem.
Anyway – here we are. Manhattan hotels were crazy expensive, I had no points to soften the blow, so no way was I going to pay 300-400/night for rooms. So we took the super-glam route to Long Island City, and it's just fine. Got here about 9, then got on the train over to Manhattan, walked around Fifth Avenue and environs a bit – wow, the security around Trump Tower is unsurprising, but still amazing. Is that possible? I suppose so, because that's the way I experienced it.
Then everyone got tired, so it was time to go back. To keep up with the week, check out Instagram, especially Instagram Stories.

Thoughts from Sunday's teaching at BRAVE:
If God exists then why doesn't he just prove it to the entire world in an instant? If He wanted to, couldn't God write his name in fire in the sky, cure every known disease, or overthrow every unjust institution on the planet? So why doesn't He?
Well, according to our first study in the book of Titus, God has a different plan for establishing His kingdom on earth. Rather than depend on His own miraculous abilities, God has entrusted the humans he created and redeemed through His son's death with the task of fulfilling His vision for our broken society. Today, we call the people that have accepted this mission "The Church."
The book of Titus is a letter written by an older leader of this community named Paul to a young up and comer in its ranks. Titus chapter one helps us to understand how a group of human beings from different ages, backgrounds and nationalities should operate if they truly want to be a part of God's mission to redeem and remake our world. So to begin Paul makes sure Titus understands the first thing he needs to establish in the fledgeling church on the island of Crete: organization and leadership.
Leaders and Followers
If we truly believe that the church -- which again is simply a group of people that believe in God and his mission -- is God's chosen way of carrying on His mission to redeem humanity after the ascension of Jesus, then our next question should be: "now what?"
According to Paul the answer to that question is: appoint good leaders.
Not Everyone is a Leader...That's a Relief!
Good leaders, according to Titus chapter one, are people that bring order to chaos and finish what is unfinished in God's grand plan for humanity. To put it simply: there's a lot of work that still needs to be done and we need to get organized to complete it.
This is going to take everyone. Leaders and people who will follow. God has given us each an indivudual purpose that connects to our shared purpose and the church is His vehicle for which these purposes are accomplished. What has God given you that can help people in our community and world?
The Team Needs You
In this country we often read "leader" and "boss" as the same thing. Or to put it another way, we consider leaders to be superior, faultless and beyond our ability to hold accountable.
However, in God's church leaders are servants and those they lead are of paramount importance. Remember, whether you lead or follow all of us share one goal: to ensure that what God wants to happen in our lifetimes happens.
This could be establishing a world-renown preaching ministry, making sure that no one in the reach of your group goes hungry, freeing falsely imprisoned convicts, opposing unjust institutions, taking in orphans or any number of other acts that introduce the personality of Jesus to people that don't already know Him.
All of these things take organization -- which comes from carefully chosen leaders -- and a massive amount of human effort. Without that effort none of these things could happen. A handful of leaders can't do a thing. But a humble leader combined with an army of believers ready and willing to join his or her vision because they believe it lines up with God's mission can change the world.
So, whether you feel like a leader or a follower at Brave know that we want to hear from you and help you find your place in joining God to save the world.
The only thing you can't do is nothing.

How do we reflect glory?
Jul 20, 2008
While in prison Paul vacillated weather it would be better to be put to death or to be spared and minister to the people of Philippi. In either case he concluded that Christ would be glorified. How do we exhibit this kind of grace while in chains?

The Gnomes, Vaudeville Entertainers
The Gnomes, Vaudeville entertainers (photo on Flickr)
Almost a hundred years ago, my great grandparents (my father's father's parents) were in The Gnomes, a group of London-based vaudeville entertainers.
My great-grandfather, Edgar Sidney (standing on the right in this photograph), directed the group. He wrote the words for the "humorous song" I'm going to grow a moustache (photo of front cover).
My great-grandmother Gertrude Clive (second from the left in the photograph), was an accomplished piano accompanist.
The full line-up of The Gnomes (from photo of hire sheet):
- Gladys Glover, Soprano
- Mamie Bell, Comedienne
- Gertrude Clive, Accompanist
- Geoffrey Arnott, Baritone
- Marshall Holt, Comedian
- Edgar Sidney, Entertainer
If anybody has any further information about The Gnomes (sometimes also known as The Merry Gnomes), it would be great to hear from you.

Why I think ASUS Padfone misses the point
I've just watched the shiny video promo for the new ASUS Padfone.
It's a tablet (think iPad, Galaxy) with a marsupial-style pouch for a mobile handset.
No longer will you suffer eye-strain trying to read those tiny words on the handset screen. Just pop it in to the tablet, and read them in large print on the tablet.
ASUS promises seamless data transfer between the devices.
We are reassured that they've been using Design Thinking to make the product (or is that products? I'm not sure)
Now… am I missing something here?
As the owner of a mobile (smartphone) handset as well as a tablet, the last thing I want is to have to surrender my handset so I can use my tablet.
I've already chosen to carry a phone and a tablet around with me.
I like having both, and choose to have both because they serve me in different ways.
Surely data transfer can be just as seamless by pairing my devices using Bluetooth (or its successors). Sure, every now and then, it would be useful to be able to tap a webpage on my phone screen and it offer me the chance to view it on my tablet.
But keep them separate physically, and I'll choose how and when I use each one.

AFAIK newer Intel graphics after core 6th gen CPUs are capable of OpenGL 4.x. Yes on my machine who has a 4th gen core i7 mobile processor, blender will nor run unless it uses nvidia video card.
Please fill out the bug report form correctly.
This is because it previously relied on Blender Internal to triangulate the meshes, but that's missing now.
More than a week without reply or activity. Due to the policy of the tracker archiving for until required info/data are provided.
This is most likely to be an out of memory error. Unfortunately we are still searching for the best way to prevent this but this is out of our hands (the driver manages the resources).
I noticed the same with mesh hair (imported from DAZ studio), I ended up deleting all the faces that are not visible from the outside, then some more and finally I was able to get it to render. Without the hair mesh the freestyle render is so fast I barely notice it.
Indeed seems to be fixed, perhaps due to rB41cb5658803bf3b96f18e93c74c6af66ecdb1e83.
It seems this bug was fixed recently, at least on Linux.
Can someone confirm this?
Does it print anything suspicious if you run blender with --debug-gpu and render? (So it crashes)
i just checked with latest beta and for me freestyle only works, if I select a collection with no sub-collections.
don't know if this is a bug or meant to be, but I would prefer if it could render all sub-collections as freestyle too.
Does it only happen with eevee? Does it crash if you choose cycles instead?
Yep same thing
This is solved in 2.8, where freestyle uses the same triangulation as everywhere else in Blender.
Updating blender2.8 -> master in my local repo, and rebuilding, showed the problem is resolved. :)
@Jaggz H (jaggz), rB168a6a4bfc1 is too old.
In 2.80 (git built within the week (168a6a4bfc1)).
Linux (Debian stable).
Official Nvidia drivers. Geforce 970. Driver Version: 390.48
Excellent! You guys are too fast for me. :)
This was just fixed, your build is one day too old.
Confirmed, checking...
@Daniel Oakey (doakey3): my bad [was accidently on an older revision rB7c438e536 to check another report], sorry.
I have tried your file. If I set the collection to "Inclusive", neither cube will be freestyled. If I set it to exclusive, then both cubes will have freestyled edges. The issue I'm having is that I cannot make it so one cube is freestyled and the other not be.
Well, like I said: in the file I posted I cannot reproduce the issue, both inclusive/exclusive collection do work on my side, have you checked that file (if that works for you as well, it gives us a hint on how to proceed)
This bug occurs with both Eevee and cycles.
Cannot really reproduce here.

Huanchaco & Trujillo Eats – Northern Coast Peruvian Fare
The northern coast of Peru is known for its eats and as I stopped in my last area before I head to the big city of Lima, I intended to shove in all the seafood I could. There was a lot of ceviche had as well as other scremingly fresh seafood. The beachside town of Huanchaco meant prices were inflated for tourists, so a stop into Trujillo was a cheaper alternative.
Huanchaco did indeed have many tasty eats but many disappointments too. The oft recommended El Caribe that I went to for cangrejo reventado (the crab) was more expensive than it should've been and did not have seaweed in its crab. It was also creepily entirely empty, but perhaps I was there too early. I also attempted to go to former legend Mococho multiple times. It was closed on all the weekdays I went and I finally found it open on a Sunday. Instead of the two questions "how hungry are you" and "spicy or not spicy?" leading to an amazing omakase like experience, I got an exasperated older woman who didn't know what to do with single, alone me in an empty restaurant. "We usually serve whole fish, but you… you are… alone!" She ended up serving me a fish fillet with a greasy nut based sauce and a half assed garnish. The lone good thing was her friendly son playing The Cure and other 80s rock . I also attempted to go to El Mochica, a famous criollo food restaurant to try Monday-only shambar or pigeon stew pasta but found the Huanchaco location only served the same old fried seafood and ceviche every other place had at nicer restaurant prices. Disappointing. The over twenty year old Don Pepe had been replaced by some surfer pizza place. It may not have been a culinary knock out but it was solidly good ceviche in many places.
Perhaps the best and most surprising meal may have been the one I stumbled onto at the place I was staying, the McCallum Lodging House. The place is run by a lovely family that will cook the standard things one expects from a restaurant when they have enough people. However I sniffed a family meal and nosed in to watch how they were doing it, and they invited me to join them for their clam, pepper & bread based stew. Ah, finally, the home style food that I couldn't locate in a restaurant if I tried. This is on top of the good handful of marcianos (think fruit puree otter pops) that I also enjoyed here. So long Huanchaco, and thanks for all the fish.

Selma to Montgomery: Nine Famous Protest Songs
March 21, 2018223 Views
Filed under Entertainment, Music Reviews
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
On this day, 53 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. began the historic third march from Selma to Montgomery in Alabama.
Over 3,000 civil rights activists set out on foot from Selma down the 54-mile highway to the state capital of Montgomery. Unlike the first two marches, where demonstrators had been beaten and turned away by Alabama police, Dr. King and company were escorted by the Alabama National Guardsmen and FBI agents to ensure safe travel.
In honor of Dr. King and black activists, here are nine influential protest songs, spanning the last several decades.
911 is a Joke
Public Enemy's 1990's hit, from their album Fear of a Black Planet, is about the incredibly slow response times of paramedics in black neighborhoods. Flavor Flav says the idea for the song came to him when his friend died, after what should have been a 6 minute emergency response time took 26 minutes.
The Revolution Will Not Be Televised
Gil Scott Heron's "The Revolution Will Not Be Televised," was born out of the eruption of student protests in the 70's across the United States. These protests were met with unnecessary deadly force in multiple instances, such as the Kent State Shootings and the Jackson State killings. The song title alludes to the idea that there will be no one at home to watch the revolution, because everyone will be a part of it.
The Message
Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five tell the truth about the inner city in the rhythmic 80's hip-hop hit, "The Message." This is another example of rap artists speaking artfully about topics of social significance, and having their voices heard by topping the charts.
Strange Fruit
Billie Holiday's incredibly powerful performance of a poem originally written by Abel Meeropol explores American racism. The poem more specifically protests the widespread lynching of African Americans in the South.
Fight the Power
"Fight the Power" was released at the start of the 90's amid extreme racial tension. The economy was struggling, crack was running rampant through many communities, and police continued to harass African Americans everywhere. "Fight the Power" became a unifying song of the streets.
Prince's magnificent tribute song to Freddie Gray is made even better by the docu-style video accompanying it.
Tracy Chapman's "Behind the Wall" focuses on the experience of women who are the victims of domestic assault. It also notably mentions the late response time of police to such incidents.
A song written specifically for the "Selma" movie, John Legend's gospel-infused song strikes a perfect tone for the movie, while also serving as a modern day protest song.
Hell you Talmbout
Janelle Monáe's scalding protest song is nearly seven minutes of looped drum track with the only lyrics being the names of African Americans killed by police and vigilantes.
Is there a protest song that you know about that should have been included here? Let us know in the comments below.

My Favorite Food Hack + My Favorite Green Smoothie
"What kind of health coach doesn't like greens?"
It's true. I don't particularly love greens. I like some of them (okay, just kale), but I kind of really do.. highly dislike the rest. The struggle is real, though, because I understand that they are the single most important thing that I should be eating on a daily basis. Greens are alkalizing, mineralizing, and detoxifying. They provide protein and fiber, and are packed with so many important vitamins and minerals. Greens create that "glow" that everyone craves so much. Simply put, they have it all.
Here's the thing: I don't believe in eating foods that you hate. Fueling our bodies should be a positive, rewarding relationship, and hate has absolutely no place in it. So, what do I do? I hide them.
One of my favorite ways to hide my greens is in juices and smoothies. I combine them with flavors that I love to balance out the bitterness that I don't particularly enjoy. This way I am able to pack them into vibrant, nutrient-rich blends in such high quantities that I only have to drink them once a day. But, I have gotten so creative with my ability to hide them that I actually crave these smoothies. How cool is that?
This smoothie is my favorite for three main reasons:
- It is so easy to make.
- The color is gorgeous.
- It is unbelievably delicious.
If you're like me, you buy greens at the store with every intention of creating the most amazing, nourishing salads throughout the week. But, every time you prepare food, you pass them over. Before you know it, they're wilted, and you have failed. Again.
Not true! Do this: toss them into a high-speed blender (I have done this with kale and spinach many times, I haven't tried other greens yet) with coconut water and blend until liquified. The amount of coconut water will vary based upon how many greens you use, but you shouldn't need more than 2/3 cup. Once blended, pour into ice trays and freeze! Now, you have a solid base for all of your green smoothies that will not go bad! You didn't waste any food, and smoothie-prep doesn't get any easier.

- The button and KAL situation.
- The knit from my stash thing.
- The UFO thing
- Hidcote progress
- Revamping of knitting goals
So there you have a brief little outline of where I am going with this post...Did I leave anything out?
Ok, first off. I am pleased to say I finally figured out how to get the buttons on the side bar. I have not figured out how to link them, but hey it's a start right.
Yes, I know that there are a crud load of buttons on there...And there may be a few more soon. I have a few more KAL's I need to join up with.
Why do I need to join up with them you ask? Well, cuz I justified a couple of yarn purchases by saying I would be a part of the KAL for its intent (like Arianne, and Deep V Argyle Vest). The vest could work for 2..The vest along (kind of old though so not sure if it is still active) and the Colorwork Challenge.
So yes, I have somewhat cheated on my yarn diet..But I am hanging on by a thread (no pun intended.) I still think I am doing well, but I have realized that if I want to buy/knit something, I look for a KAL for it, and then decide to buy yarn for it (before checking the stash..Bad girl!). I got to nip that behavior in the bud. As soon as I find a KAL for the Combo Corset T (as seen on Knitty Gritty, designer Annie Modesitt...Love her!), I promise, I swear I will be good!
Do you believe me? What's the date today? Hey, come on, I can do it!
OK, the UFO thing. There's this great idea that I am going along with which is that you pick up a newUFO every month and work on it(and keep working on it) so at the end of the year they are completed..Or at least in active status again. Considering all the stuff I have OTN right now, I decided this was a good idea for moi. Tonight I made a game plan of what I will tackle each month, as well as my Project Spectrum and Sweater A Month projects. I think my goals are quite reasonable..And I am a bit excited about it....
Now, the Hidcote progress...I know you are all dying to see my horrible progress pics. This sucker is getting so big it is impossible to photograph! I had to order more yarn (sigh) so I can finish it...I think it may be a blanket by the time I am done..But what a blanket!
Ok, so the last pic was me finished with chart 3.
Here's after chart 4:
And chart 5:
And chart 6: (this is where the pattern changes)
I am hoping to have this done by the middle of next week...We shall see.
And of course, the last thing I have to talk about are my knitting goals for January. They are as follows:
- Finish Hidcote (no problem)
- Finish Baby Blanket (baby was born on the 5th, sweet Sophia Claire)
- Start/Finish Peapod baby set (Sweater a Month KAL)
- Start working on mitered sock blankie again (UFO)
If I am able to accomplish all that, I will get a head start on my Feb. Goals...I got a lot going on in Feb...Of course I would it is the shortest month!
Oh by the way, we got some snow up here...A darn lot actually. And although my experiences with it have not been all that fine and dandy..Some people had a jolly good time.
(I especially love the easy chair in the back...A guy sat in it and posed for B. He said they were going to make a real ice chest to go along side. Sweeeeeeeeeeet.)

Where do you begin to plan for retirement?
Our 13-point "Retirement Checklist" is a great place to start
Retirement isn't as easy as cleaning out your office, shutting the door and heading off to relax on a beach somewhere. It takes planning. Truth be told, retirement planning is as important if not more so than career planning, because you don't want to waste a minute of your retirement years. There's little time for "do overs", so it's critical to think ahead, plan ahead and to be prepared as best you can to have the time of your life in retirement.
If you're like most people, you've been putting money away for retirement, but there's more to retirement planning than reaching a certain number in your 401k or other savings account. What do you want to do with your free time and what is the associated cost? Have you determined a retirement budget, and where will money come from for day-to-day expenses? Do you plan to seek part-time employment? How will such income be taxed? Are you set with health insurance and Medicare supplemental coverage? When should you start claiming social security? The list of things to think about is long and important but, not to worry, very doable.

A report released by the Commerce Department on Wednesday showed a bigger than expected increase in wholesale inventories in the U.S. in the month of August.
The Commerce Department said wholesale inventories jumped by 1.0 percent in August after rising by 0.6 percent in July. Economists had expected wholesale inventories to climb by 0.8 percent.
The bigger than expected increase in wholesale inventories came as inventories of non-durable goods surged up by 1.2 percent amid substantial increases in inventories of farm products, chemicals, and drugs.
Inventories of durable goods also climbed by 0.9 percent, partly reflecting a 3.5 percent spike in inventories of automotive products.
The Commerce Department also said wholesale sales increased by 0.8 percent in August after edging up by 0.2 percent in July.
Sales of durable goods jumped by 1.3 percent amid sharp increases in sales of computer equipment, professional equipment, and metals.
The report said sales of non-durable goods also rose by 0.5 percent, as notable increases in sales of apparel and miscellaneous non-durable goods were partly offset by a steep drop in sales of farm products.
With inventories and sales both climbing, the inventories/sales ratio for merchant wholesalers was unchanged from the previous month at 1.26.

Orange – carrot cheesecake
I have a thousand times confessed that for a piece of cheesecake will give even the most delicious cake from Pierre Hermé … Here are my simple and even mundane tastes. But I think I still did not write that I love dearly, and orange – carrot cheesecake. True, I have rarely driven delicious. Basically, confectioners, I think, admit a very terrible mistake – desiccate originally prepared cake or dry dough. It turns out this gingerbread dry, inedible the next day after baking. My ideal is a carrot cake: moist, juicy, tender and not too sweet. By choosing for himself the ideal proportions, I was trying to achieve exactly this result. And I think I did.
The idea of a combination of carrot cake and cheesecake was not accidental. When I get the desired taste and texture carrot cake, I decided not to combine it with heavy cream, as is customary, and a cheesecake that I tastier. Already, recalling his excitement, I understand that they were in vain … The orange – carrot cheesecake turned out to taste harmonious, like this, and what should be the right cake: nothing more and at the same time do not feel that it would be possible to add something. One of my favorite … No, the most beloved …

In a true and open conversation with a dear mentor, I shared my truth: I am inadequate.
… I feel like my business lacks progress; I'm not sure how to navigate some of the challenges ahead.
… My marriage dissolved and the divorce is close to being finalized. Meanwhile, I recently ended a great relationship because of so many things on my plate.
… I'm not leading my employees the way I should…
The list of perceived inadequacies could go on. At times, I feel like I have no idea where I am going. How can I teach leadership if I feel like I can't lead myself?
After listening to all of this, my mentor said, "Once you accept that you're inadequate, then you are in the right spot. You are trying to do too much on your own and once you give yourself permission to not know everything, you can seek the partnership and collaboration needed to support your mission rather than try and create it in solitude."
It felt like a breath of fresh air.
"The only time you're going in the wrong direction is when you stop. You don't get to know what happens around the other corner," he said.
"When you get really good – you don't have to know. Knowing what's around the corner is less important than walking around the corner and believing in your ability to navigate whatever is there."
I've learned leadership isn't about doing everything yourself or 'knowing what's around the corner'. It's a matter of being confident you've put the pieces in place to succeed regardless of what lies ahead.
"This is what I hear – you've got a great business that's having an amazing impact, employees you love, happy children…" my mentor continued.
"The only thing wrong is that you don't know what's next. There's nothing wrong with that. People who play their whole lives safe, scared to walk around that unknown corner ultimately get destroyed from the inside out. There is no such thing as safe – it's an illusion. You can get slowed down, even knocked down but you can't be destroyed – that will only happen if you stop."
This was what I needed to hear.
As someone who constantly lives looking through my own lens of "not enough," it's important to remind myself of all the times I've responded to pain, uncertainty and obstacles by mustering the effort to put the next foot forward.
If you're like me – feeling like you've got a lot on your shoulders, keep walking.
Embrace your inadequacy as an invitation to enroll partnership and collaboration from those you trust.
I'm now striving to see that the completeness in my inadequacies can't be filled through the constant dwelling on what's not 'right' within me, but instead, what's 'right' surrounding me – waiting to blend into a complete and perfect next step forward around the unknown corner.

This Week From the Desk
This rather interesting blog post by Daniel Benneworth-Gray floated past the desk this week about his typographic book cover designs for the Alien series. He mentions that books based on films rarely get enough attention. Well, sir, you have our attention now with these covers! (P.S. I wish these were real!) See the full post on Daniel's Blog.
Loved this short little window into the weird words that type designers use to test their fonts published on Wired this week. Personal favorite: "Högertrafikomlaggningen" from Jackson Cavanaugh at Okay Type. I have a few good ones myself that I think would make a great little book.
Type Network continues to grow this week with their recent deal to present Monokrom in their roster. It's not THAT big of a deal I guess because Monokrom fonts are already available on FontShop, as well as on their own independent site. Read more about the aquisition (is this even the right term?) in the official TN announcement here.
123 calling cards from an international roster of artists ranging from the 18th century to the present day have been facsimilied and inserted into new book Oracles by Pierre Leguillon and Barbara Fedier. Very excited to try to grab this one from Edition Patrick Frey. (via It's Nice That)
Check out this great little demo for Variable Fonts on the web, developed by Devon Govett using Typekit. It's a good way for everyone to start to get our hands dirty and demystify Variable Fonts a little. Try it out here.
This poster from Seoul's Everyday Practice is one of my favorite pieces of design to float across the desk this week. Their entire approach and body of work is something to admire. Take a visit to their site here.
The latest contribution to the world of typographic publications is Type Notes, a new periodical from Fontsmith focused on promoting typefaces, both theirs and others, and talking about typography. They've stacked up a few fantastic contributors, and it appears there's enough type exploded across the pages to put you in a coma for a while, but hey, there are worse ways to land in a coma, right? See all the details and order a copy on their website.
I learned a new word this week: Scrollytelling. The art of telling stories in digital spaces through mastering the scroll. Its rather fascinating, really. Learn more about it from this blog post on The Pudding.
"The most important reason to preserve the scroll is if the transitions are truly meaningful, and not just something to make it pop."
The Society of Publication Designers (this is non-solicited, but they're a great organization) is hosting an event in New York next week talking about the power and state of independent publications. The discussion will feature a collection of some of the most amazing people: Matt Willey from Avaunt Magazine and the NYT Mag, Leo Jung from The California Sunday Magazine, Caitlin Thompson of Racquet, Tina Essmaker of The Great Discontent, and Christopher Isenberg from Victory Journal. If your'e in NYC, don't miss this.

Merrily climbing through the forest , eyes focussed on the canopy and lower branches in the hope of seeing and recording the koalas, I slipped and landed heavily on a hidden rock. Luckily and after a couple of disturbed sleeps, I am relieved that I did not break a rib. Made a comfrey leaf poultice ( for what it is worth to the individual ) and applied to my chest. Today a bruise has appeared so I am on the mend. Now to venture again to try and find the koala, I have 7 days before the count is scheduled to end.
Before my taking my eye off my footing I walked up a drying up creek bed to see two yabbies, this one was peering out of its haven in the rocks.
Due to injury and heat have spent the last couple of days indoors listening to radio (Australia's new political reality is very depressing ) and reading. Colm Toibin's "Brooklyn", a young woman's emigration story, from Ireland to Brooklyn, NY. Funny and sad, struck a chord in me as I have lived most of my life as an emigrant. Followed on by his collection of stories in "Mothers and Sons", some very moving and insightful, Toibin has been a pure treat to read.
Now a glimpse into why many of us are in a silent despair.

The Audit Office of NSW has reported a 36 per cent increase in costs of workers compensation claims in the period 2015-2016. Psychological injury claims have increased by 32.5 per cent and the overall cost of these claims have increased by 71 per cent. The findings show a 33.9 per cent increase in claims citing violence, bullying and harassment as the cause of injury.
These findings demonstrate the Department's failure to provide safe and healthy work environments. Many members are not aware that if work health and safety problems cannot be addressed within a school due to lack of resources or other factors the safety concerns can be pursued with the Department using their "Work Health and Safety Issue Resolution Procedures".
These procedures set out particular timeframes for resolving the issue and ensure that if the "issue" cannot be resolved within the workplace it should be escalated through an "issue resolution notice" so that the WHS Directorate and the relevant Senior Manager/Director/Director of Public Schools and relevant Senior Officers receive notification and work with all parties but at the latest within 10 working days (Department WHS Issue Resolution procedure,
page 6). If the issue remains unresolved it may be pursued with Safe Work NSW.
These procedures are available on the Department's intranet. The NSWTF "Work Health and Safety Bulletin 3" summarises the procedures.
Given the significant increase in psychological injuries it is important that Federation Workplace Committees working with Work Health and Safety Committees consider the impact of work-related (or occupational) stress in the workplace.
The Department's Work Health and Safety Directorate has produced a number of documents related to occupational stress. "Guidance in completing the risk management pro forma – occupational stress" identifies the following topics with a list of hazards that could pose a risk:
- "workplace premises and the physical environment" includes "poor environmental conditions, security when staff work alone or after hours"
- "work practices" includes "demands of work, pressure in meeting deadlines, work overload, long or unsocial hours"
- "systems of work" includes "mechanisms for communication and consultation, level of participation in decision-making, implementing new technologies"
- "workplace relations" includes "supervision and support practices, work expectation and roles, bullying, harassment or discrimination"
- "threat of harm" includes "exposure to difficult clients, exposure to violence"
- "people" includes "resilience, attitudes, experience and training".
Workplace Committees could discuss these issues with staff and identify one or a number of hazards that pose a medium to high level of risk. Discussion should occur at a school level about how these risks could be minimised. If a school needs additional support or resources to minimise the risks, members may decide that the matter should be dealt with as a Work Health and Safety Issue using the Department's procedures.
The Federation's Work Health and Safety Bulletin on these procedures will be reissued to assist Federation Representatives and Workplace Committees. Utilising these procedures ensures that the Department is alerted to the hazard and takes action in consultation with school staff to resolve the issue consistent with the requirements of the Work Health and Safety Act.

A new gas training centre has launched in Colne, Lancashire to reduce the shortage of qualified gas engineers in the commercial catering equipment industry.
Darren French and Neville Roscoe, directors of M65 Gas, became aware of an increasing lack of gas engineers who specialise in servicing commercial catering equipment, so they invested in a purpose-built catering training facility at their Norfolk Street training centre to help meet the demand.
"Commercial catering is a highly specialised gas and electrical area, which requires an engineer with an in-depth knowledge," said French. "Whether it's a restaurant, care home, hospital or other venue which uses commercial catering equipment, there are huge financial implications to them if their appliances stop working. That's why these specialist engineers are in big demand – but there aren't currently enough of them in the UK."
The commercial catering workshop at M65's training centre is designed for anyone looking to enter the gas catering field and features a wide range of industry standard equipment. Delegates combine their hands-on training at M65 with work placements, where they gather evidence needed for their portfolio.
With over 35 years' experience in gas training and assessments, the team at M65 are able to help delegates find relevant work placements, which can lead to job opportunities once they have completed their qualification.
"Commercial catering equipment must be serviced at least every 12 months by a Gas Safe registered engineer to ensure it is in a safe condition," added French. "From pipe work to flues and extractor systems and interlock systems, there is a lot for specialist commercial catering engineers to learn about and gain experience of if they are to be adept at keeping kitchens operating efficiently and safely.
"We have vast experience of working in this industry ourselves and have excellent contacts, so combined with our new dedicated training facility, we are well placed to help make up the shortfall in qualified specialists and help them secure employment."
