Lynden's Steakhouse9 Bistro mixes higher-end with casual
When Joseph Merkling opened for business in the restaurant space overlooking the Homestead golf course in May 2013, he offered both a fine-dining, higher-priced steakhouse and a bistro for simpler meals.
As he saw it, the $49 filet mignon that topped the menu on the fine-dining side was a bargain — the same steak would probably cost more than $100 in Seattle. But Lynden isn't Seattle, and Merkling quickly scaled back to the bistro format that is proving successful today.
Once people come, they're very happily surprised. The place is gorgeous.
Joseph Merkling, owner, executive chef
"They are rather frugal out there," he says.
About 80 percent of his customers at Steakhouse9 Bistro & Lounge are from in and around Lynden, but Merkling hopes more Bellingham residents and Canadian visitors will make the trip to his restaurant in the months ahead.
"It's a fun, friendly, lively atmosphere," he says. "Once people come, they're very happily surprised. The place is gorgeous."
Like many other local restaurateurs, Merkling believes the key to success in Whatcom County is to create a menu and atmosphere that attracts dress-up, special-occasion diners without making the shorts-and-T-shirt customer feel unwelcome.
His current menu still features some steak options that would be in the splurge range for most locals, with filet mignons in $28 or $34 portions, a $36 New York or rib-eye, and a $26 sirloin. The steaks are seared on a state-of-the-art, 1,800-degree chophouse grill-broiler.
It's one of the best French dips I've ever had.
Joseph Merkling
Sandwiches range from $12 to $19, with the French dip on the high end of the spectrum. It features thinly sliced prime rib with caramelized onions and Swiss cheese on a house-baked roll with au jus and house-ground fresh horseradish sauce.
"It's one of the best French dips I've ever had," Merkling says.
Also featured are four burger options, for $11 to $17. The high-end choices feature Kobe beef.
The $14 "9 Burger" is prepared with bacon, Gorgonzola and Kobe beef combined into one patty that's seared until caramelized and served on a brioche bun with sauce, lettuce, tomato and caramelized onions There are also four pizza varieties and six salads.
The appetizer menu provides some items that might appeal to the sophisticated palate, such as chicken cilantro pesto quesadilla, orange Grand Marnier shrimp, and seared tuna sushi roll.

Rocking the red lip today. When I want all day wear I always turn to lipstain, then just keep moist with some gloss. Today I uses Revlon Just Bitten in Gothic and topped it with Mary Kay nourishing lip gloss in Beach Bronze.
Hope you all have great Saturday's!

Forget about wine, it's cocktails that are taking over Paris, as the city continues to transform its food and drink landscape, pushing the boundaries beyond what used to be the French norm. What started back 2007 with a small handful of bars has now spread right across this city, making it one of the world's top places to sip on expertly crafted alcoholic beverages. From thoughtful, curated drink menus to more experimental spots, fun themed bars to sophisticated lounges for the cool kids, here are the top places to choose for the best shaken, stirred or straight up drink options.
Dirty Dick, 9th Arrondissement
This fun, funky, neo Tiki bar is for those who love a little dash of cool kitsch and a splash of retro heaven in their cocktails. Located in South Pigalle (or SoPi, in the 9th arrondissement) Dirty Dick is part of a hip revival of this area (along with Glass bar). In keeping with the Polynesian Tiki theme, the decor is all about bamboo accents, lanterns, palm tree wallpaper (custom, of course), taxidermy animal heads and two looming carved wooden totem poles leftover from the days this hotspot was a hostess club—along with the bar's name. The bartenders wear flowered Hawaiian-style shirts, the boozy, fruity cocktails are served in all sorts of kitschy glasses like giant shells or mini volcanoes and the specialty here is free-flowing rum, with 55 different options to choose from. Try their very popular Mai Tai (rum, orange zest, grilled almonds) a Zombie (a super strong mix of rums) or a Pain Killer (rum, coconut, pineapple, orange). Slightly bonkers but super fun, this is definitely a spot to let the sights, sounds (the bathroom has a chirping bird soundtrack) and especially tropical tastes wash over you.
⎟SYNDICAT BABES⎟⠀ Guest or teamates, we love them a lot, so we gave them a shot.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ Aristotelis and Sullivan, Le Syndicat and La Commune chief bartenders. Those babes put their passion and creativity into their cocktails. That's why we love them a lot, so come lick a shot! ⎟📷 @fxpelissier ⠀ . #cocktails #cocktail #bartender #sexy #sweety #hot #hotty #barmen #barman #boy #model #lesyndicat #lacommune @lacommunepunchclub @lesyndicat
Le Syndicat, 10th Arrondissement
This bar, located in the Gare du Nord area of the 10th arrondissement is a celebration of all things French. You just have to find it first. With its nondescript storefront windows papered up and covered in posters, it's hard to tell if Le Syndicat is a hidden bar or simply an abandoned shop. But once inside you'll quickly realize why this is one of the most popular new additions to the hot Parisian bar scene: Dark, moody, and impossibly chic, this bar is channelling that speakeasy vibe but keeps it contemporary with its hip-hop music, love of cognac and well-mixed cocktails, making it very hard to leave. But what really helps this place stand out amongst the other bars is that it only serves French spirits and gives a French twist to classic cocktails. Try a Dijon mustard-inspired drink with whiskey, Sauvignon, pineapple syrup, lemon, and mustard powder, or their take on a gin and tonic made with Gentiane de Pontarlier (a kind of Absinthe), Bonal aperitif and house-made tonic. Not only will you sample great drinks, you'll learn a lot about French spirits, too!
Experimental Cocktail Club, 2nd Arrondissement
ECC was one of the first cocktail bars to spark the nouvelle drink vague that spread across Paris—and it is still one of the best. Located in the 2nd arrondissement and opened in 2007, Experimental Cocktail Club was the first speakeasy type bar of its kind in Paris that offered really well made, affordable drinks in a sophisticated atmosphere. With dim lighting, chandeliers, velour sofas, wood floors and stone walls, this place feels like a 1930s, American speakeasy with a distinct French energy. Part of a growing bar family that includes Prescription Cocktail Club and Ballroom amongst other restaurant and even hotel endeavors, they've even expanded to London, Ibiza and New York. With a list of fresh, expertly crafted, creative drinks, try the Tommy's Marg with bourbon, vanilla and cloves or Tears and Vinegar, which mixes whiskey with balsamic vinegar.

Candelaria, 3rd Arrondissement
This uber cool, popular bar—conveniently in the Marais district of the 3rd arrondissement—is a true hidden gem. That is, you have to go into a taqueria (which is notably very good for a meal pre- or post-drink) through an unmarked back door that literally feels like you're going into a broom closet, pull back a thick curtain and voila! You've just made it to one of Paris' hottest nightspots: the Mexican themed Candelaria. Dim, candle lit and decorated without much fuss, make your way to the often packed bar and watch as the well-trained bartenders hustle and bustle, mixing intricate drinks at a rapid pace. Try a Guêpe Verte made with tequila, cucumber, coriander, agave, lime and pepper to give you a bit of thirst quenching pep, an Al Son De La Batagna, a mixture of tequila, amaro, lime and, chinotto, or my personal Candelaria favourite, a classic margarita on the rocks with a Mexican beer on the side.
Le Sherry Butt, 4th Arrondissement
This classy bar in the 4th arrondissement is the perfect solution for those who are looking for an expertly made cocktail, minus the thumping music and the long line-ups of 20-something hipsters (although in the Parisian bar scene, late-night line-ups are the norm). Le Sherry Butt is made up of two long rooms with mirrors on the wall, leather couches and chairs, bare stone walls, a dark wooden bar, industrial barstools and the requisite dim bar lighting. Relaxed but classy, patrons are equally wearing suit jackets and nice dresses as well as jeans and T-shirts. A small, but handcrafted cocktail list has only 11 choices, but they also focus on a super curated selection of whiskies from all over the world. Expect to find all those little details here that make the drinks a cut above: chilled glasses, custom ice cubes to suit each drink, impressive ingredients and extremely creative flavour mixtures. For those who don't like their cocktails sweet, the Shimbashi, made with Japanese whisky, Fino sherry and bitters is a must, or for something more bouncy and bubbly, a Belle en Bulle has pisco, pear syrup, lemon and Champagne. Whatever your cocktail whims desire, rest assured that the excellent staff will steer you in the right direction.

Dana Chen Expresses the Art of Persuasion on Beckman Debate Team
December 8, 2017
Filed under F E A T U R E S
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Senior Dana Chen was forced into public debating by her parents when she was in fourth grade. At first, she was reluctant because she thought that it was going to be boring, but as she continued in public debating, she began to develop deep interests in public speaking and politics. "As I started to get better at it [debating], I became more passionate for it and the more I realize this is what I want to do when I grow up," said Dana. "I just kept doing it, and eventually I fell in love with it."
In the transition from elementary school to middle school, Dana continued to partake in speech and debate. She started to compete in national tournaments in 7th and 8th grade. In her freshman year, Dana and her brother founded the Beckman Debate Team because they realized that they were being disqualified from tournaments since they were not competing with an actual school. The club grew from two students to thirty students, each participating in different types of debate. "It's really great because it's kind of like a class now," said Dana. "We could teach students and recruit them, and everything becomes very interesting and fun."
Dana's family and her group of close friends, who are also in debate, are her greatest supporters. They motivate her to continue in public debating. "I've met a lot of people through debate," said Dana. "My closest friends are very competitive debaters alongside me all across the United States, so they are very supportive with the decisions I make." Under the encouragement of her close friends, Dana gained confidence in debating and decided to enter more tournaments.
Being the captain of the Debate Team, Dana has been working very hard to help new and experienced debaters. During each meeting, she leads the team using "speaking drills" which practices being comfortable with one's own voice and allows them to adjust their own speaking pace. She also encourages the team to practice on their own every day so that their skills will not fade. Her persistent hardworking attitude often inspires many students and serves the role model for the future debaters. Dana's friend and senior Madison Hung stated, "Dana is very dedicated in debate, and it kind of inspired me to be involved in tournaments and debate club and help others too."
Dana is also described as a great leader among her friends on the debate team. "She is going to pass the leadership role onto me and to other debaters, so she taught me a lot about being a leader," commented junior Shira Silver, the rising captain of the debate team. "She also inspires me because I can see how much hard work she does just to keep the club going."
Dana started off with Public Forum debate in 6th grade, but she decided to switch to other types of debate because she wanted to try something different. Currently, Dana and her partner, senior Gena Huynh, compete in Policy Debate.
Besides being the captain of the Debate Team, Chen is concertmaster of Beckman's chamber orchestra, where she leads the first violin section. She also enjoys writing during her free time and writes for two online magazines outside of school: "Her Culture" and "Affinity." The two magazines' works are often cited in Huffington Post or Time Magazine. With Dana's achievements in music, writing and debating, she certainly is a multi-talented individual with bright future ahead of her.
In the future, speech and debate will undoubtedly be part of Dana's career. She is applying to the University of California, Berkeley's political science major and hopes to become a successful lawyer. She will definitely continue to debate in college and will strive to take the valuable experiences she has accumulated over the years on the Debate Team and inspire others to enjoy the art of speaking and debating.

Ivan Mirkovic leaves Republic FC for Orange County Blues FC
Republic FC Coach Paul Buckle explains why Ivan Mirkovic left Sacramento
Another player from Republic FC's inaugural 2014 USL championship team has departed.
Midfielder Ivan Mirkovic joined Western Conference opponent Orange County Blues FC after his transfer by Republic FC. Mirkovic is the sixth starter from last year to leave a team that has become significantly younger.
Republic FC director of football Graham Smith said Sacramento initially sought to place Mirkovic on loan with the Blues FC, who coveted his services, while he continued to get back into form from an ankle injury.
But Smith said Mirkovic wanted assurances he could return as a starter, something Smith and coach Paul Buckle wouldn't guarantee.
The feisty 5-foot-6, 150-pound Mirkovic was considered Republic FC's glue and enforcer in the defensive midfield during the 2014 and 2015 seasons and wore the captain's band in the season-opening friendly Feb. 13 against the Colorado Rapids before his injury. The native of Serbia had 31 starts and was third in minutes with 2,759 last season. He started 27 matches and played 2,324 minutes in 2014.
But former San Jose Earthquakes player JJ Koval, who was signed by Sacramento on March 23, and versatile veteran Agustin Cazarez played well in Buckle's two-man defensive midfield formation in Republic FC's 1-0 season-opening win March 25 at Seattle Sounders FC 2. Mirkovic did not play, though he was among the 18 players who traveled.
"We're in a constantly evolving situation, and we can't satisfy everybody that wants to be on the first team," Smith said. "Paul and I talked at length with Ivan on Wednesday. We wanted him to come back and fight for his place, but he elected to go where he knows he gets first-team football."
The Blues finished first in the Western Conference last year.
"I am excited to join OC Blues FC and I'm very excited for a new challenge in my career," Mirkovic said in a release by the Blues FC. "When the (regular-season) champions are interested in you, then you must not hesitate for a single second, and I am looking forward to what lies ahead."
Republic FC on television, radio – Channel 31 will broadcast eight Republic FC home matches this season, including Saturday's home opener against Arizona United SC. The others are St. Louis FC, April 23; LA Galaxy II, June 4; Seattle Sounders FC 2, July 2; San Antonio FC, Aug. 6; Portland Timbers 2, Aug. 20; Orange County Blues FC, Sept. 3; Galaxy II, Sept. 17. KHTK 1140 also will broadcast nine Sacramento home matches, though not Saturday's home opener.
Sherrod rejoins Republic FC – The San Jose Earthquakes loaned forward Mark Sherrod to Sacramento. Sherrod played on loan in six matches for Republic FC last season and had a goal in Sacramento's 3-1 home win over the Tulsa Roughnecks FC.

Buttons that have patterned backgrounds, need to be solid with appropriate levels of visual contrast. Buttons on course navigation have patterned backgrounds that make reading the text on the button difficult for some students to see.
Example of Issue
Students who have difficulty perceiving color, students with partial sight and older students are having a hard time reading the text on the course navigation buttons due to the pattered background that does not create a clear visual contrast
Guideline 1.4 Distinguishable: The visual presentation of text and images of text has a contrast ratio of at least 7:1, except for the following:
- Large Text: Large-scale text and images of large-scale text have a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1;
- Incidental: Text or images of text that are part of an inactive user interface component, that are pure decoration, that are not visible to anyone, or that are part of a picture that contains significant other visual content, have no contrast requirement.
- Logotypes: Text that is part of a logo or brand name has no minimum contrast requirement.
1.4.6 Contrast (Enhanced (Level AAA)
Example of Standard in Action
Navigation buttons in course are patterned but have a contrast ratio of 7:1. Which means that the brightness level of the white areas in the button are 7 times brighter than that of the blacks. The larger the contrast ratio, the greater the difference between the brightest whites and the darkest blacks. Students in the class who have low vision, partial vision or difficulty perceiving color will be able to see the text because of the high level of visual contrast.
Locating the Issue in Your Course
Confirm that any patterned buttons used in your course have a clear visual contrast. To test the buttons used for sufficient contrast, you may use the Contrast Checker tool from WebAIM.
Resources to Align With Standard
- WebAIM (Web Accessibility in Mind) provides web accessibility solutions to individuals with disabilities. Links provided will give you information about how to check for visual contrast, why it is important and why users with low vision need images and text to be high contrast.

Eimo also has two world class injection molding facilites located in Southwest Michigan. As the only North American full-service provider (art to part) for mold decoration they emply 200 - 500 people with in their company.
With 30 acres of site development, high-performance insulation, two interior bridge cranes, extensive mechanical and electrical systems to accommodate the full-time manufacturing facility.
Also, inside Eimo Technologies are front offices and restroom facilities for management staff and employees.
This new facility is a great example of Frederick Construction's ability to fully understand the owner's vision and needs resulting in a successful project on all levels. Frederick is also happy to support Eimo as a job creator to their community in Southwest Michigan. President Mike Frederick was able to meet Junya Suzuki, the Presdient of Eimo's parent company Nissha Printing Co., at the ribbon cutting ceremony that took place in Febuaray.

2018 Reel
Abstract Groove
My goal when creating this animation was to communicate something using abstract forms. I chose to depict the rhythm and energy of "Upfunk" by Pigeons Playing Ping Pong because of the quick and punctual notes.
Thought at Work promotional ad concept
This bumper animation advertises the student run design conference at RIT "Thought at Work". I took inspiration from the previous year's conference to create this visual style that reflects a common philosophy about design, to occasionally look at problems "under a microscope" to better understand them.
The Animated Inanimate
This stop motion short depicted a simple narrative of a person having a lucid dream of a friendly serpent. (pretty rad if you ask me.) I used a Canon camera and Dragonframe to film it and Adobe Premiere Pro and Audition to edit the final cut.
My goal when putting together this photo-montage was to depict any narrative. I, never having been faced with this challenge before, decided to depict my own narrative of confusion. I believe that I got the message across. I used a Nikon D3200 to photograph everything and Premiere Pro to edit it all together.

But fear not, NAAB NUTTERS! I will be posting as often as I possibly can when I'm in Germany- so stick around, and comment your support because I will really need it!
Comment Question of the Day: What is your biggest fear? Mine is probably that I'm going to muck up incredible opportunities like Turn of The Screw and never be happy when I'm older because of it. Also spiders.

Stories such as the one last week about a Marshfield couple whose misplaced compassion for a stranger cost them $17,000 are enough to make even the kindest soul think twice before offering a helping hand.
Police are now looking for Brett Whitcomb, who they say bamboozled two people whose hearts he opened with a sad-sack story of divorce, homelessness and pancreatic cancer.
Fortunately, such tales are offset by stories about people like Matthew C. Gannon of Braintree, who with his wife, Miriam, adopted 23 children and fostered 51.
Gannon died recently at home in Braintree at age 88.
�He was a giant of a man,� said Maryanne Zeller, the couple�s only biological child.
Such tales are also balanced by stories about people such as Jean-Riguel Ulysse of Randolph, who has been helping local Haitians as they cope with personal losses from the earthquake that struck the Caribbean nation last week.
Ulysse, a Haitian-American who came to the United States in 1984, has long been a source of support for Haitian immigrants. Many members of the Haitian community who gathered at St. Mary�s Parish on Thursday lined up to speak to him, seeking counsel and reassurance. Ulysse said he has trouble making sense of the destruction. The consolation, he said, is the growing closeness within his parish. �As I open up to them, they open up to me,� he said. �They�re people of faith. They�re strong people.�
The Marshfield case is proof there is no depth to which some people won�t go when their focus is solely on their own welfare.
The Randolph and Braintree cases show the depths of people�s compassion when their focus is on the welfare of others.

For a majority of Americans, natural gas is a clean, efficient source of heat. It is generally safe, provided you properly use, monitor and maintain your gas appliances and pipelines. However, the threat of fire and explosion makes it essential to recognize the symptoms, or signs, of natural gas leaks. Although natural gas is nontoxic, larger indoor leaks may result in health symptoms relating to depleted oxygen, including headaches, dizziness, fatigue and nausea. In severe cases, natural gas may cause asphyxiation.
Sulfurous Odor
The mercaptans added to natural gas give this normally odorless gas a sulfurous, rotten-egg odor that people with a properly functioning sense of smell can detect at very low levels. This strong, offensive odor is what usually alerts people to the possibility of a gas leak, especially if they have become familiar with the odor as a result of educational programs by their local gas company.
Malfunctioning Gas Appliances
A leak in the interior of a home may produce abnormally high pilot or burner flames on stoves and other gas appliances. The leak may also cause these appliances, or their fittings or lines, to make unusual noises. One or both of these signs, in combination with the mercaptan smell, provide very strong evidence of a leak. If you observe these signs, you should immediately leave the building and call your gas company from an outside phone. Do not use your telephone indoors if you suspect a gas leak.
Dead Vegetation Near Pipeline
An outdoor natural gas leak may discolor, wither or kill vegetation near the leaking pipeline or tank. In the absence of some other obvious explanation, a natural gas leak may well be the source of this damage. Other possible signs of outdoor leaks include bubbling from wet ground, and dirt being blown into the air. If you suspect an outdoor gas leak, call your gas company immediately, and ask them to send a representative to check the area with a gas-detection device.

If there's ONE thing you know I stand for, it's NEON, rule-free, pedal-to-the-metal, no-holds-barred SELF-EXPRESSION!!!!! :D
Part of self-expression is sharing more about who I am! What I like! What makes me giddy!
So, in the spirit of just OWNING THE SHIT out of who I am, here are 13 things you might not know about me...
13 Kooky Facts About Eyenie:
1.) My name is pronounced, Eh-zjeh-knee (or eh-jenny with a soft 'j'). I've been called everything you can imagine: Irene, Enjenou, Eye-knee, Enshanay, Angelique, Etch-knee, Ebony, Onjanay, Eugene, Ay-jenny, Eileen, Janine… and so many others. I was named after my grandmother, Eugenie, and then my mom gave it her phonetic flair and made it confusing as fook.
2.) I LOLOLOLOLOVE unicorns. Like, in my guts and at a cellular level. It's the movie "Legend" that got me.
3.) I'm totally obsessed with the 80s, the Roaring 20s, medieval times.
4.) I'm fluent in Spanish (this was my first language) and French.
5.) My favorite number is 27.
6.) I'm 6'1", and wear a size 11 shoe. At my very thinnest, I wore a size 8 and now average a 10/11. This used to all make me throw up in my mouth a lil' bit, and now I own the eff out of it!
7.) I'm a member of two imaginary 80s bands - one with my study abroad homies called, Purple Lightning where my stage name is Fuzchia and my instrument is the electric violin. Another with my sisters and cousins in Mexico called Hijos del Rock (the children of rock) where we do a shit-ton of karaoke and busting out impromptu dance choreographies.
8.) I have a Master's degree in international affairs and cross-cultural communications, which I originally got to work at the UN. I even moved to New York and everything.
9.) Extrovert? Introvert? I never understood which I was! Then I learned that I am actually an ambivert...and it makes soooo much sense. There are some situations where I'm happy being the center of attention and my performer totally activates... and others where I experience severe anxiety and find ways to avoid interacting with others.
10.) For those crazy high school "senior superlatives", I was voted Most Likely To Be A Stuntwoman and was one of the finalists for Most Likely To Be On SNL. (My hilarious and magical Urban Shaman kid sis actually got that coveted title the year she graduated.)
11.) I spent hundreds of hours (no, seriously) during my formative years (through college, if you must know) as a serial prank caller. These were no ordinary, "Is your refrigerator running" pranks - they were highly elaborate and involved. It was an incredible outlet for the performer in me, and made me feel a sense of mystery and excitement.
12.) The thrift store is one of my most favorite places to visit ever. I would wake up in the middle of the night and walk barefoot uphill (both ways) to go if necessary.
13.) I love dancing sooo much that I've been known to drench bridesmaid dresses with sweat at weddings, own people during dance-offs, kick off broken shoes whilst in mid-move to then keep dancing barefoot, etc. I think you get the picture.
Dare you to comment below and tell me something TOTALLY magical, kooky or that few people know about YOU! GO!
Air kisses,
//You are not some glossy print… Show up like the unique work of Art you are

Why choose a fee only, Registered Investment Advisor?
An 'Independent' Investment Firm is NOT Always…
At Roof Advisory Group, we are all these and more.
Fee Only
Our firm has been 'fee-only' (not 'fee-based') since the beginning. This means that our only portfolio management compensation comes in the form of the quarterly fees we charge our investment management clients. We do not now, nor have we ever, received any compensation whatsoever in the form of commissions, pricing spreads, revenue sharing, bond trading 'haircuts' (increasing the cost of a bond to make a profit), etc.
A Fiduciary
We have a fiduciary duty when we manage client assets, meaning that our clients' best interests must be given priority. The distinctions of a fiduciary are both ethical and legal with strict standards that ensure we act in our client's best interest. Just because a firm is 'independent' does not mean they have a fiduciary duty to their clientele. Our firm's fiduciary obligation to all our client base has always been clear and consistent.
A Registered Investment Advisor
Roof Advisory Group is a Registered Investment Advisor (RIA). Those organizations operating as a Broker Dealer (BD) do not have the same fiduciary-level of responsibility to their clients as an RIA. Even organizations that are fee-based 'hybrids' (having both BD and RIA capacities) only carry a fiduciary burden on the portion of business in which they operate as an RIA. From a client's perspective, it is often not clearly defined when a hybrid organization is operating in which capacity. Roof Advisory Group has always been an RIA-only organization.
Both our fee-only and RIA-only Financial Advisor status contribute to the transparency that comes when firm and client interests are directly aligned. There are no potential hidden charges, product biases, or conflicting motivations associated with the investment services or advice we deliver to those who work with us. A primary principle in the firm's founding was that this transparency benefited all our clientele, and the ongoing structure and operation of our business assures this differentiation continues today. Just being 'independent' does not mean being transparent.

Thanks for the Company!
Happy Sunday, everyone! I'll be posting later on to tell you who won my blog candy. I'll also post my team's (International Ink) entry for the final round of the TGF Royal Battle.
But first, my card is for the Oh Alice! Queen of Tarts Challenge. The goal is to incorporate food in your card.
What I like about the Elaine Cox Alice series from Sweet Pea is that it forces me to think outside the box as far as coloring. I'm learning a lot from coloring the background and I'm quite enjoying it. Time to get more Copics, haha!
Speaking of...I was up late last night (actually, this morning) till 2:00 am buying stamps!! I just had to look at my favorite blogs on Google Reader and saw some stamps that I liked -- thanks to 'enabler' BFF, Jo, and my new friend & TGF teammate, Sheena. I went a bit overboard though and may have bought *ahem*...like a lot! *sighs* Stamping diet? What stamping diet?
In other news, I am so excited about new and upcoming things! I can't talk about them right now but I will soon!
Supplies for the card include the April Key Ingredients kit from Taylored Expressions (CS, PP, buttons, ribbon). The border and journaling stickers are from Sassafras.
Enjoy your day!
PS. I don't remember Humpty Dumpty being in Alice in Wonderland (?). LOL~!

|Safety signs are an important requirement in all business premises and workplaces, as well as shopping centres and industrial areas throughout South Africa. Each sign portrays either a warning or some other safety feature in the workplace. Safety Signs promote a safe work environment, ensuring employees and customers are aware of all potential hazards and help reinforce important safety precautions and policies. Our safety signs are all SABS approved, for your safety and compliance.
|Safety Signs are made to order onto a cromadek board or ABS plastic board.
|The Importance of safety signs in the workplace in South Africa:
|Safety Signs warn employees of workplace hazards and instruct employees on ways to avoid injuries, warning of workplace hazards and instruct employees on the proper precautions to take to avoid injuries.
|Safety Signs play a practical role in preventing injury and ensuring staff to be aware of the dangers and hazards awaiting them at given points in the workplace.
|Without them, many employees would lack essential direction in times of crisis, and employers might find themselves in significant legal difficulties if any accidents were to arise as a result.
|Safety signs are also of great importance in workplaces which come into close contact with the general public. Where workman are employed in a road excavation, or in a scaffolding project, it is crucial to ensure that no harm is caused to the general public during the efforts. One way to help best ensure this is by employing clear safety signs to warn the public to exercise caution as they go. This helps keep the employer out of trouble as well as acting as a safeguard for the public, allowing a smoother interaction between dangerous employment environments and the ordinary thoroughfare.
|Safety Signs might not seem the most interesting topic of conversation, but they really are essential in the fight against danger and risk in the workplace. By ensuring your workplace is sufficiently well signed, you can help protect the staff and visitors to the site, particularly members of the public, against the imminent dangers that could otherwise go unnoticed, leading to less industrial accidents and helping to reduce the risk to employees and ordinary people.
|The positioning of safety signs in the workplace can be of critical importance in ensuring a healthy and safe workforce for increased productivity without the misfortune and hassle of staff injury and legal proceedings.
|As an employee, safety signs are the first port of call in response to any injury, be it to staff or the general public, and they can also help create a safer environment for both groups where danger meets everyday life, such as city-centre construction sites and excavations.

Scalable and unsupervised classification : reality or myth ?
21.02.2018 11:15 – 12:15
With the advent of deep network architectures many remarkable results have been reported in classification and hypothesis testing applications and estimation problems such as image restoration, denoising, super-resolution and compression. Most of these architectures benefit from the presence of a huge amount of training data per class.
The recent architectures assume end-to-end training where the entire architecture is optimized according to some loss function. Despite some obvious progress, interesting reported results, user-friendly ML libraries developed in TensorFlow, PyTorch and Keras and huge interest from the IT industry and research communities there are a number of questions that still remain either completely unsolved or weekly understood.
At the same time, partial solutions are advocated by unsupervised systems based on generative models such as GANs and VAEs. However, in the most cases the generative models have serious restrictions on the dimensionality of input and require accurate alignment. Additionally, in the most cases the validation of produced results in based on visual assessment.
Among the main difficulties towards large scale applications of these systems are: (a) complexity of training for large dimensional data, (b) need of labeled data for supervised classification, (c) limited amount of classes and trivial encoding methods of class labels, (d) vulnerability to perturbations in input and training data and lack of rejection options in classification space, (e) high sensitivity to geometrical deviations in the input data wrt training sets and (f) need of retraining of the entire network with the addition of new classes.
Not less important factors are security and privacy of data next to understanding what is learned by these systems and how the learned features are changed with the addition of new classes or training examples.
The last but not the least factor is a lack of solid information-theoretic foundations behind the design of deep architectures providing some estimates on the fundamental achievable limits of the performance in terms of accuracy, needed amount of training data, etc.. In this presentation, we will try to consider the existing deep architectures from common perspectives and advocate several solutions that partially address the above problems.

Small group vacationSmall group travel is not large group travel scaled down. It is modelled on independent travel but with the advantage of a group leader to take care of the itinerary, accommodation and tickets, and dealing with the language. Its easy to tick off the big sights independently but finding those one-off experiences, local festivals, traveling markets and secret viewpoints is almost impossible for someone without the insider knowledge gained from years in the field. If youre heading off on a gap year your, perhaps but for those with a two-week vacation, a small group tour will save valuable planning time.
The leaders are not guides theyre not there to shepherd you around. Instead, theyll let you know which local restaurant serves great value food without running the risk of travelers tummy. Theyll allow you to avoid hour-long queues at train stations and attractions.
We like to think of small group travel as the Goldilocks option. It is independent travel without the fuss, worry and bunk beds and organised travel without the coaches. And its cheaper than a tailor made tour. Its sits somewhere in the middle and we think its just about right.
Have big, life-enriching experiences that would be impossible to organise without lots of time and insider knowledge.
Make the most of your vacation time by letting someone else do the hard work and boring logistics!
Peace of mind
Small group tours take care of the security aspects and provide a safety net should anything unexpected happen.
If you dont have three months to spend exploring, small groups trips let you cover more ground in less time. Your days are not spent queuing for tickets or finding hotels so you can squeeze more into your vacation.
Solo travelers whod like company
Likeminded travel companions plus peace of mind for those traveling alone. Single supplements are usually available providing privacy if you want it.
Less confident travelers
Stray from the tourist trail without worrying about getting lost, and meet local people without dealing with the language barrier.
Couples and friends have private rooms, and you can choose to eat alone or not. Single supplements give solo travelers their own room.
There wont be any free time
Free mornings or afternoons let you explore on your own, or just relax.
The accommodation will be basic
Trips are as high or low end as you like. Though off the beaten track destinations wont have luxury hotels, this is all part of the adventure.
I wont like the other travelers!
Tour operators try to create groups with a similar demographic age, families, activity levels... Chances are, youll even make new friends.
Will we be following an umbrella?

Carbon reduction
Your vacation will help support local people and conservation. We must also reduce CO2. Learn about the CO2 emissions of this vacation and how to reduce them.
Accommodation and Meals:
We spend the trip in smaller, locally staffed hotels on a B&B basis and use local restaurants for the rest of our meals. The most popular dishes in Turkey are kebabs, stewed meat, grilled aubergine, stuffed seafood and sweets like baklava. Alongside supporting small businesses with our commerce daily, this trip also offers two optional eating opportunities which give an additional benefit to the community. In Cappadocia, clients can eat in the home of a Turkish family- giving a unique insight into regional life and putting money directly into the pocket of local people. Clients can also dine at a Womens Cooperative restaurant if they choose.
Funds are donated on line and matched by our Intrepid Foundation for a local NGO called Mavi Kalem. The organisation supports women and children with a variety of educational and social support programmes in Istanbul. For example, they are running Turkish classes for Syrian women and children at the moment in order to help refugees assimilate themselves. Last year during our Intrepid Foundation fundraising month we held a charity auction of locally produced art and souvenirs to raise funds for this project.
A Fair Deal:
We only hire local, licensed guides in order to create employment opportunities in the area. This not only has a positive effect on the economy, but our clients benefit from the vast local knowledge which our guides have. Often, we also offer jobs to local graduates who have obtained a Tour Guidance degree, which is a career boost for young people in the community. Staff training is a large and ongoing part of our company and mentoring and refresher courses in several topics are available to local guides. This includes responsible tourism issues, which should be conveyed to clients over the trip.
Local Craft and Culture:
We visit an extensive number of historical and cultural sites including Istanbuls Blue Mosque, the ancient city of Troy, ruins of Pergamon, Ephesus, Antalya Museum, Mevlanas Mausoleum, Cappadocias Open Air Museum and the Museum of Civilisations. By spending on entrance fees and souvenirs here we support the upkeep of these important cultural establishments and the jobs they create. There are many opportunities to go through the markets and see local crafts and delicacies being made and sold. Cappadocia is famed for its colourful and intricately painted pottery, whilst at the Spice Market in Istanbul clients can buy spices, dried fruits, nuts and seeds and Turkish delight.
UK Office:
It all starts at home so we have first worked at reducing our carbon footprint in our UK Offices. Through energy conservation measures and recycling policies, we are proud to be actively reducing the waste produced and our impact on the environment. We support various projects all over the world to try and give something back to the places we visit.
Group Size:
This small group tour has a maximum of 16 participants, meaning that we have a low impact on the environments and communities we visit and are able to ensure that we do not disrupt or lead to the displacement of local people. The small number also allows us to stay in unique, family-run hotels that cannot benefit from coach tours and other mass tourism due to their limited sizes.

I was able to document a beautiful ceremony called the Celebration of Sight. Eye patients who had received cataract treatments come together with medical staff to celebrate the restoration of their vision. I sat down with Keli Price, a ward nurse who helped the eye team with screening to ask her about her experiences in the clinic during the Togo field service. It was a humbling experience to hear of the patients backgrounds and all the hard work that the eye team had performed over the past five months.
Screening for patients was no easy task. Prior to Mercy Ships arrival, announcements would be made on the radio and flyers hung up all over advertising the eye screenings. Thousands of patients line up with the hope of being accepted for surgery. The eye team held two screenings a week for a month at a time. One day 1200 people showed up so the team had to add a third day of screening. If admitted its a huge time commitment for patients to receive treatment especially if they travel great distances. They come the day of surgery, a day of post op for bandage removal, a two week post op follow up then a final six week
post op.
The eye clinic had two goals in mind while admitting the right type of cataract cases: to restore sight and to train one of the very few local eye surgeons, Dr. Wodome. The ophthalmologists needed to find text book cases that would provide the least amount of complications during surgery and post operation. Dr. Wodome would then teach other eye doctors how to perform the surgery. Day Workers also receive experience operating eye equipment during screening and check ups so they are able to acquire marketable skills. Ultimately Mercy Ships wants to give local medical professional the tools and training they need to be self sustaining.
Because their goal was to restore sight to those who had poor or no vision, people with one cataract but one good eye were not admitted. Diabetics were also not admitted due to the fact that low blood supply to the eye prevents proper healing. Patients with Glaucoma would also be turned down due to complications that would arise during surgery. In addition to cataracts staff also looked for patients with pterygiums. This is a condition that occurs when the eye is trying to protect itself from over exposure to sunlight and dust by growing vascular tissue. If this tissue passes the mid point of the pupil, it is too late. Due to the heavy amount of pterygium cases, slots filled up quickly.
Though criteria was fairly stringent the staff did their very best to admit as many patients as they could. It was emotionally difficult for to turn away potential patients that couldn't be treated. Out of the 3099 people that were screened, 725 were admitted for cataract surgery and 103 received pterygium surgeries. This is still an impressive amount of life changing operations.
Most surgeries led to the restoration of sight. In some cases the cataract treament revealed that it was really a preexisting condition such as a damaged retina that had caused the poor vision. In these instances patients surprisingly weren't disappointed but rather thankful that Mercy Ships tried their best. The harsh conditions in West Africa create a culture that seldom complains about life's hardships. The patients' gratitude, despite the final results had been humbling for most of the eye staff who came mostly from Western countries.
Keli described an instance in which a patient thought her sight had improved but really hadn't. A local translator (who apparently was a bit overweight) scoffed at the poor woman, asking her why she thought her vision improved. The patient laughed and responded "Because I can see now that you eat too much!" Regardless of the difficult outcome, the culture often encourages thankfulness rather than entitlement.
While the series of screenings and post follow ups is a long process, the surgical procedure takes only four minutes. Dr. Wodome cuts through a few layers of cells and inserts a small lens into where the cataract had been. They dilate the pupil and center the lens right on top of that.
In the end, patients celebrate their restored vision. Its a joyful time of music and dancing. Day workers play drums and sing.
A patient turned to me and said in broken english, "I can see again. Today is a happy day." Tears rolled down her checks.
Sight is a gift that we must all be thankful for.
