Have to make this quick--inbetween shower and putting my shoes on. I am tumbled, shaken--or another way of looking at it--learning by fear--We showed our 50 thumbnails to each other--seeing how others dealt with the nighttime exercise. It was very interesting and I have a page of notes that I should transcribe right here so it doesnt go anywhere. Bunny and Dennis, which turning the projects around, adding, subtracting,-in the most part moving most people out of their zone of comfort and into a sinking mire that muscle (work) will affect. Murray has been coaching me--telling me he isn't giving me any space for my antics and that I will be listening to him to move from a creator of spots for a full fledged illustrator. He is kicking me out of my nest and seeing when, just when will I start beating my wings. We'll see what happens today. We can work today and Thursday--6 finished designs with one in color.
Jean Tuttle was our speaker yesterday--a balm in this time of turmoil. She is amazing. Jean was a student of Murray's in the mid/late seventies. She is truly a decorative illustrator who delights in her work and her clients. Jean'ss work is beautifully rendered --with an original impression of simple on first glance, but as it's peeled back, has multiple layers of color and pattern. She is a queen of promotion including all sorts of cards (Halloween, Christmas, Easter, Valentines Day) that she uses to try new techniques and showcase them. Her Halloween cards using scratchboard as an example--became a new look that stemmed from her sample. She offered us cards, hot pink pens and a wonderful cat head button (note, buttons for Ithaca Art Trail would be great). I plan on writing about her as it will give me an opportunity to dig into her work and look at it as I want to better understand her look.
(note to self: try out making a palette from bringing an image into illustrator, breaking it into flat colors using Live Trace (you can sample with an eye dropper too--in both illustrator and Photoshop. Jean brought Grant Wood's palette into a project this way. Very inspiring. Another "don't forget"--my classmates if they dont have a scanner use their cameras (or phones) to shoot their work to show. Very simple idea...but a good bail out).
My class is opening up as a group--as all of us are in suspension--and it is remarkable to see the growth that is happening albeit in two days. What about the end of this week. Compared to a week of figure painting-- this is the right way to jump start a degree program. Another signature of Murray's genius and the team of Dennis and Bunny's way to bump each student off center to start the change of work and headset. Remarkable.
>>More later.

These charming additions allow you to create a true tablescape environment; from the tones and textures of the urban landscape, to a more rural setting or a dramatic mountaintop. Inspired by his own natural and artificial surroundings, French design Ferréol Babin has delightfully crafted this set of three ceramic structures. An almost whimsical set of buildings, mountains and lakes that bring a sense poetry to functional table objects.
With a dramatic inclusion to the tablescape, enter the textured ceramic Mountain vases. Their quintessential forms rise up, providing an elevated point to display a real world floral arrangement.
Each piece is handmade from ceramic, and applied with a textured glaze. Streaks and other variations in size and colour are part of handmade production processes, and not defects in the design or production.
the designer
All the furniture, luminaires and accessories by Ferréol Babin show a distinctive artisanal, almost archaic style. Similar to a sculptor, the French product and space designer loves to shape things with his hands. Intending a fine mixture of rationality and emotion, he uses earthly, sensual materials and blends functional with artistic elements – an unique experimental minded linking him to the pulpo philosophy.
Whimsically rising up from your tablescape comes the Mountain vase. Their duel peaks evoke the archetypal mountainside scene, rising to a lofty botanic display at their summit. Wether you choose the playful terracotta, or deep umbra, their form conjures up a rocky landscape through a rough and textured ceramic finish.
Making a dramatic entrance overtop your tablescape below comes the large Mountain vase. Its solid ceramic form presents the quintessential mountainside aesthetic. An aesthetic accentuated by the rocky, textured ceramic exterior available in terracotta or deep umbra; rising up to provide your bouquet the prefect lofted position.

Since I am in the middle of a move to Delta, I thought it might be a good time to review the perks of being a Delta Medallion Member.
There are 4 tiers of loyalty with Delta:
- Silver
- Gold
- Platinum
- Diamond
Each loyalty level is triggered by reaching a certain number of Medallion Qualifying Miles or MQMs. Silver kicks in at 25,000 MQM, Gold at 50,000 MQM, Platinum at 75,000 MQM and Diamond at 125,000 MQM. Since I'm in a transition, I'll be holding Gold for this year once my status match is processed by Delta. I don't foresee hitting a higher tier since I don't have much time left this year to clear the miles needed to bump a level. Next year is a different story though, Diamond is the goal, but we shall see how that pans out.
There are other ways to reach the needed levels. MQS or Medallion Qualifying Segments is for those of us who fly a lot, but don't fly long distances. Each of these kicks in at 30 segments for Silver, 60 for Gold, 100 segments for Platinum and 140 for Diamond. These segments are in lieu of MQM.
It is also important to keep in mind that MQMs earn based on actual miles flown as opposed to usable miles that are based on how much you pay for your ticket. It is also important to note that first and business class multiply the earned MQMs, so if you fly 1000 miles in the air in first class, that equates to 2000 earned MQMs on a full fare ticket, 1500 MQM on a discount ticket.
On top of the requirements for miles flown, Delta requires a certain amount of money be spent every year, these are referred to as Medallion Qualifying Dollars (MQD), while MQMs and MQSs are interchangeable, the MQD requirement must always be met. Silver requires $3000 spent, $6000 for Gold, $9000 for Platinum and $15000 for Diamond. I'm not planning to spend $15000 on flights, so you can bypass this by spending $30000 on your credit card every year. This is a lot of money, but if I spend just my rent on my credit card, it nearly puts me half way there. So it may not be as difficult as you think.
Each status level comes with more benefits like complimentary first class upgrades, higher status level gives you higher upgrade priority. Gold, Platinum and Diamond give first class upgrades on award tickets as well. Keep in mind first class upgrades only apply in the continental US.
Delta Comfort+ upgrades come with each status level, again time frame and priority depend on your status. Same with companion upgrades.
Other big items from status are things like additional Medallion Mile Bonus per dollar spent, higher levels give higher bonuses. Waived baggage fees come with all status levels. Diamond status includes a Sky Club membership. Priority check-in for all status levels as well as priority boarding. Gold and higher have priority security screening as well.
Platinum and Diamond loyalty levels also qualify for a benefit of your choice.
Platinum can choose one of the following
- 4 Regional Upgrades
- 1 Global Entry Application Voucher (Don't choose this, use the credit card perk)
- 20,000 bonus miles
- Silver Medallion Status gifted to someone
- Gift Card
Diamond can choose one of the following
- 4 Global upgrades
- 8 Regional Upgrades
- 2 Global and 4 Regional Upgrades
- 2 Global Entry Application Vouchers
- 25,000 Bonus Miles
- Gold Medallion Status Gifted
- Sky Club Executive Membership Upgrade
- Gift Card
For the Diamond status choice benefit, the best is certainly the 4 Global Upgrades, these let you bump to business class free of charge on any international flight, definitely the most bang for you buck but it depends on your flying habits.
There are a few small benefits I didn't cover here and a whole list of benefits that apply on partner airlines. For the full list of benefits head on over to the Medallion benefits Webpage at Delta's website. Really Diamond status on Delta has a few spots that make it much more valuable than the American Airlines counterpart. I'm looking forward to the challenge of hitting Diamond status next year, we'll see how it goes.

The little Chevy that could.
I made a big decision today. A BIG one. I think. Possibly. I'm still trying to convince myself of it. I have been planning on buying a new car for a long time. All I needed was my tax return for a nice down payment.
I've got an acceptable car, so the purchase would be purely selfish and impulsive. Like everything I do. My trusty 2001 Chevy Cavalier has been good to me, but I see it nearing 130,000 miles and I panic.
Nevermind that I still owe on it. And nevermind that it'll be paid off soon if I JUST HOLD OUT A BIT LONGER. Also nevermind that I've never had a problem with it before.
I've had that bad boy for six years, and it's been good to me. Always reliable. Never talks back. I've many times sat in it and cried. Or sweat after a long run. It has seen the worst of me.
Aw, I'm attached.
And so today I decided I'm keeping it. Screw it. I'm going to pay it off. I'm going to drive it into the ground. Hell, maybe I'll even exist without a car payment for a while once it's paid off.
So also today I figured I better start taking care of it. I was already a couple thousand miles late for an every-three-thousand-miles oil change, not to mention there was a terrible groaning that escaped every time I made a turn.
My sweet car needed some loving. So, over $100 later, and after some fresh oil, some new thingamajigs, a flushing of the whatsit and a shiny filter contraption, plus something about power steering juice, it is good as new.
The guy at the oil change place probably could've convinced me to pay for a complete body restoring, though. He was so pacifying and friendly.
For a guy at an oil change place.
"Heeeere, why don't we go ahead and do this, see? It'll be allllll better," he crooned. In my head, anyway.
"Hiiii. Okaaaaay."
I think when it was over, my car actually squeezed a tear. It's so happy. We even cuddled earlier in the garage. I want to hold its hand and talk baby talk to it. My sweet, baby, baby, baby car. Hi! I love you!
It suddenly drives so much better. The groaning stopped, the turns are smoother.
And so I'll keep it.
But so help me God, if that mothertrucker even thinks of breaking down in the next year it is SO OVER.

Help Put An End To Modern Day Slavery!
This petition had 66 supporters
We're living in the 21st century and tons of Californians are stunningly oblivious to modern day slavery. It is time to demand attention, and put an end to this secret business. Human trafficking is everywhere and exist because of the profit made off of it. Human trafficking has been around since the 1400's with slavery according to the Rutgers University Campus Coalition timeline page.
There are approximately 20 to 30 million slaves in the world today, 80% of trafficking involves sexual exploitation and 19% involves labor exploitation. The 2016 Global Slavery Index estimates that including U.S. citizens and immigrants 57,700 people are victims of human trafficking. Those being trafficked include young children, teenagers, men and women and can be domestic citizens or foreign nationals. California harbors 3 of the FBI's 13 highest child sex trafficking areas in the nation: Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego. According to www.dosomething.org
California is particularly vulnerable because of proximity to international borders, number of ports and airports, significant immigrant population, and large economy that includes industries that attract forced labor.It serves both as an entry point for slaves imported from outside the US as well as a destination for slaves. Slavery is found throughout California, but major hubs.
Even though the U.S. offers protection for trafficking victims, few victims seek the government's aid due to fear of corruption, fear of deportation, or fear of reprisals with their family. Victims of trafficking may be citizens of countries with corrupt governments that actually aid trafficking. Where victims' home countries lack reliable police systems, trafficking victims are hesitant to reach out to the law for aid. It's time to really abolish slavery, and help billions of families reunite and have the chance to live a free life.

You will find specific instructions for submission on the relevant KEATS page of the module for which you are submitting work.
Update 1 February 2019: Please note: All deadline submission times are in UK time (GMT or BST).
Contact your department office immediately should you have any problems submitting a piece of work.
You can find guidance on using the system in the How to Submit Coursework guide.
You can find more information about plagiarism avoidance on our page on plagiarism.
You can practice using Turnitin on the A&H Student Induction and Turnitin Practice Spaces module.
Word limits apply to the main text, quotes, footnotes, and appendices consisting of original material (see below for exclusions). Only front matter and bibliography are excluded from the word count. Penalties will be enforced if students significantly exceed the specified word count.
The Oxford English Dictionary defines an appendix as: "An addition subjoined to a document or book, having some contributory value in connection with the subject matter of the work, but not essential to its completeness". In order to be excluded from the word count of an assignment, the "contributory value" of the appendix must be as an external source or raw data or results derived from analysis. Examples can include: filmography, translations, transcripts, ethical clearance letters, discographies, primary statistical data and software code.
Appendices whose "contributory value" consists predominantly of original material authored by the student will be included in the word count.
Front matter
Front matter, which is excluded from the word count, will be taken to include title, coversheet, contents page, lists of abbreviations, acknowledgements, dedications, abstract, glossary and lists of images.
The penalties for exceeding the word counts will be as follows:
No penalty is applied to candidates whose work falls short of the prescribed limits. Such work will be marked in accordance with the usual academic criteria.
Work submitted up to 24 hours after the deadline will be marked, but the grade awarded will be capped at the pass mark (40% for UG and 50% for PGT). Students will be informed what mark would have been awarded had the cap not been applied and will receive feedback on the work.
Work submitted more than 24 hours after the deadline will receive a mark of zero. No feedback or indicative grade will be provided.
This is set out in the College Academic Regulations for Taught Programmes (T43.12).
Students have up until the deadline to submit work and we recommend leaving plenty of time to do so. The system automatically marks submissions as late by highlighting them in red to both the student and any staff. Work submitted ON the deadline, will be marked as late.
If you have not submitted any work before the submission deadline you will only be able to submit one version after the deadline and this version will stand as your final version to be marked (if submitted within 24 hours after the deadline). No resubmissions can be made after the submission deadline has past (unless mitigating circumstances are approved).
Contact your department office immediately should you have any problems submitting.
You should first confirm that the problem is not with the computer or internet connection you are using, by attempting to submit using a different device or connection if available. If the College's electronic submission system suffers a technical fault near a submission deadline, you should alert the relevant department office, who will contact all students to let you know what to do next. As a precaution you should regularly check your College email account during the period immediately before the deadline, as this is how we will communicate with you should there be any problems.
Departments often have specific requirements in place for the submission particular types of assessment. It is very important that you consult these alongside the Faculty guidance:

Adam Thomsen
Owner / Senior Consultant
Over the years I have obtained an array of skills and experience in the marine construction industry. Combining my skills as a draftsman, moorage facility designer, commercial scuba diver, and permitting manager, I have developed all of the necessary abilities and contacts to facilitate the Crown Land tenure application process. Having a background in commercial scuba diving has allowed me the opportunity to work alongside Registered Professional Biologists. From this I have gained insight into environmental mitigation measures and moorage system installation techniques essential in designing moorage systems that fall within Federal, Provincial, Municipal, and First Nation requirements.
In the past I have been involved in projects with Small Craft Harbours as a Marine Harbour Inspector and as a Marine Construction Quality Assurance Inspector. I have also acted as an Engineers' Representative for The Department of Fisheries and Oceans.
I am originally from Gibsons and moved to the B.C. interior to attend college. I now live in Sechelt with my wife and three children, and have been a member of the Volunteer Fire Department there for ten years.

On this day 30 years ago, Black Monday as it is now known (or Black Tuesday in Australia and New Zealand due to the time zone difference) saw the Dow Jones fall 508 points to close down 22.61% at 1,738.74. Of course it was not only the Dow Jones that was in a tail spin. By the end of the month Hong Kong was down 45.5%, Australia down 41.8%, Spain down 31%, with the FTSE down 26.45%. However, by far the worst performing market was New Zealand, which was down 60% from its 1987 all-time high.
What is interesting is the last 3 trading days of the previous week, which did not actually cause the crash across the globe, certainly had an effect on market confidence. On Wednesday 14th October 1987 the Dow dropped over 95 points (3.8%), down over 12% from the August all-time high. This caused the markets to become nervous due to the fact that there was a feeling that stocks were overvalued. In August 1987 the Dow Jones had touched an all-time high of over 2700. On Thursday the 15th October 1987 tensions flared up in the Arabian Gulf when Iran hit a US registered supertanker, the Sungai, with an anti-ship missile, doing the same again to the ship Sea Isle City the next morning. Then on the Friday the UK was hit by what has since been named as 'the Great Storm' which knocked out power lines and brought down 15 million trees blocking roads and train lines across country, bringing the UK and a lot of northern Europe to a standstill.
Now depending on who you talk to there are a number of different opinions as to the cause of the crash. One of the main arguments for the crash was the sudden drying up of liquidity on the buy side. The programme trades that were happening at the time automatically turned off all buying. So all bids vanished at the same time whilst the programmes were trying to sell. Although today's markets are more sophisticated, there are still elements of the market that are largely untested in highly volatile markets. This is still one of the major concerns with regards to the exchange traded funds (ETF) especially in the US. These now control more than USD4tn of assets.- they potentially can work well in normal circumstances however in times of stress the underlying market can struggle for liquidity, which has a knock on effect on the ETF, exacerbating market losses.
Another big worry for some is that fact that there is no central marketplace anymore. With the market now operated by 12 registered national exchanges, approximately 40 dealer/broker operated trading venues, countless day traders and other trading systems; the market is so much more fragmented than it was. Laszlo Birinyi, the founder of Birinyi Associates, who was in the midst of Black Monday at Salomon's back in the day recently warned, 'My greatest concern is the lack of a central marketplace'. Recalling events at the time, he went on to say, 'Back then it was gut-wrenching, but we could see what was happening. What concerns me today is that a lot of the time we can't see what's happening. There are so many venues and the reporting is so much more difficult. We don't know what's going on in dark pools or in internal trading desks.'
So, are we going to see a repeat anytime soon?? US equities have been on an multi-year bull run, money has been cheap, there are asset bubbles globally, North Korea, Brexit, Italian Banks, Greek debt, the rise in populism, consumer debt, the leader of the free world, US & Trump relationships with not only its enemies but also its friends, trade wars / protectionism, the VIX at historical lows, possibly a new Fed Chair, the unwinding of QE, China's 'New era of global power', climate change, job killing automation, inflation killing Amazon, and as mentioned, the depth of underlying liquidity. There are enough sparks; it only takes one to catch!!

The Certified Infant Massage Teacher Course (CIMT) is coming to the "The City of Brotherly Love", Philadelphia, PA.
This Accredited 3-day intensive professional training, taught by Master Teacher Tina Allen, will be hosted by Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) and will be held at the Roberts Center for Pediatric Research.
Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) is the nation's first hospital devoted exclusively to the care of children. Since their start in 1855, CHOP has been the birthplace for countless breakthroughs and dramatic firsts in pediatric medicine.
The Liddle Kidz Foundation is proud to be working with the Integrative Medicine Team at CHOP to develop a comprehensive infant and pediatric massage program to best serve their patients, families and staff.
Philadelphia has always been known as the birthplace of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and the city has many landmarks to visit during your time in Philly.
If you were to ask any Philadelphia native what they feel best symbolizes their city, you'll get a number of different answers. Top on the list includes The Liberty Bell. The Liberty Bell is an iconic symbol of American Independence and should be on the itinerary for anyone stopping in this historic city.
After visiting the Liberty Bell, your next stop on your historical tour would be Independence Hall.
Independence Hall is the building where both the United States Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution were debated and adopted. It is now the centerpiece of the Independence National Historical Park in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
A favorite destination for tourists and locals alike, John F. Kennedy Plaza gets its famed nickname "LOVE Park" due to its famous sculpture. Located near City Hall, LOVE Park offers amazing photo opportunities, and is an awesome place to experience culinary delights from the city's best food trucks.
But, of course, no visit to Philly would be complete without diving into a Philly Cheesesteak. The debate continues as to which is the very best cheesesteak in all of Philly. Ask the locals and you might get some surprisingly different responses. We suggest having your own taste test and deciding for yourself.
Pat's King of Steaks is where it all began - the original home of the cheesesteak which is still owned and operated by the Olivieri family. The founder, Pat Olivieri, invented the steak sandwich in 1930, and this joint has since been serving up some of the tastiest cheesesteaks in the city -- if not the world. Whether you're in the mood for wit' or wit'out, you'll be leaving this stop as a super satisfied customer.
Then there is Geno's just across the street. Geno's was founded by Joey Vento in 1966 and has turned this South Philly corner into the home one of the most exciting and appetizing food rivalries in the world. Open 24 hours a day, Geno's will help you soak in all the flavors that Philadelphia has to offer. Just make sure to order correctly or you may find yourself sent to the back of line.
Come to Philadelphia and discover with us!
Finally, an accredited infant massage certification program for professionals, caregivers and those wanting to begin a new career in the wonderful world of infant massage. The Liddle Kidz® Foundation Certification course is an intense, fun and effective way to master the core skills of infant massage.
Founded by master teacher and philanthropist Tina Allen, the Liddle Kidz® Foundation offers a new, comprehensive, research based training course and teaches students what they really need to know to become a professional infant massage teacher.
Any experienced infant massage teacher will tell you that there is a world of difference between learning how to massage a baby from a book or DVD, and knowing how to provide the best care to meet a families needs, however, there are few opportunities to learn the skills they really need from a working healthcare professional who has provided infant massage education throughout the world.
As a CIMT, you have the special opportunity to impact an infant and their family for a lifetime.
