The transformation of galaxies in infall cluster regions
The cutting off of gas supply in galaxies, whether it is exhausted internally or removed forcibly, can have dramatic consequences and are thought to build up clusters dominated by an early-type galaxy population, as observed in the local Universe. In recent years it has become more and more obvious that this transformation starts in moderate overdensities and filaments surrounding and feeding galaxy clusters. Keeping in mind that the environment of a galaxy cluster is the result of continuous hierarchical assembly boasting a wide range of substructures of locally dense environments, we therefore need to ask: Are the observed galaxy (scaling-) relations due to the timing and physics of cosmological structure formation or due to baryonic physics?
To answer this question we need to look beyond the cluster core.
We therefore investigated members (down to 10^8.5 M_sol) of a massive galaxy cluster at z=0.44 out to 3 virial radii. Our observations probe the nearby infall region, central to the topical question of "pre-processing". The smoking gun of this "pre-processing" are transitional objects, like passive disk galaxies, whose stellar populations and morphologies indicate a recent change in star formation and/or dynamical history. We find a large number of this virialized population at distinct locations. In our exploration of the galaxy stellar mass-size relation (Kuchner+17), we were able to show that the manifestation of the size distribution of the cluster galaxies is due to an outer disk-fading and possible bulge growth that accompanies the varying fraction of star-forming and quiescent galaxies.
Continuing this quest, the Wiliam Herschel Telescope's new multi-object survey spectrograph WEAVE will run a dedicated survey that focuses on this question of "pre-processing". WEAVE will map 16 nearby galaxy clusters and their filamentary structure of infalling galaxies out to 5 viral radii. This will allow us to characterize the onset and continuation of galaxy transformation during their infall process toward the cluster center.

Feetz, the first company to use 3D printing technology to make custom fit, sustainably made shoes, announces the launch of "Feetz@DSW" – a unique pop-up shop that produces custom 3D printed shoes using Feetz' proprietary technology. Customers will be able to see 3D printers in action and design 3D printed shoes in a first-of-its-kind retail experience. The pop-up shops will be available in DSW's NYC 34th St and SF Union square locations.
Feetz was founded in 2013 by mathematician and entrepreneur Lucy Beard. The idea of personalized footwear came to Lucy during an unsuccessful shoe shopping experience. As she walked into a Starbucks and ordered a "grande mocha light with two pumps," Lucy realized that standardized sizing does not meet individual needs for fit and comfort. Feetz' proprietary SizeMeTM technology uses a mobile scanner to capture 5000 datapoints and 22 dimensions and produce a customized 3D printed shoe in less than 2 weeks. Feetz shoes are made with recyclable materials.
"DSW is excited to bring Feetz's innovative technology to our customers through this pop-up experience. Feetz uses 22 unique dimensions to create custom fitting, personalized shoes on-demand, which we believe has the potential to disrupt the footwear industry as we know it today. We are pleased to be the first to bring this new concept to the market," said Simon Nankervis Chief Commercial Officer of DSW Inc.
"By partnering with DSW, we have an amazing opportunity to bring the world of 3D printing to DSW's customers. People will soon be able to see, touch and learn about how our 3D technology can personalize footwear and experience a product that is as good for you as it is for the environment. DSW is an innovative footwear retailer and we are confident that together, Feetz and DSW will develop a relevant and unique experience for our customers." said Lucy Beard, Founder and CEO of Feetz.

Building Link's Hylian outfit from Breath of the Wild/
One of the unexpected joys that I've experienced this year is Breath of the Wild, an immersive entry in the Legend of Zelda series. I started playing the game back in August, when I lucked out and snagged a Nintendo Switch at the local used game store here. Breath of the Wild was the reason I was motivated to pick it up. I've been a fan of the Zelda games from since I was a kid, and this seemed like a good opportunity to get back into them.
What I didn't expect was that it turned into a wonderful bonding moment with Bram. I started playing the game on my own, but slowly, Bram started creeping up beside me to watch me play. I went from playing the Switch as a tablet to playing it on the television, and together, we explored Hyrule together, figuring out shrines, riding over the plains on horses we captures, or slaying Moblins that we encountered. I felt guilty whenever I played it without him, and essentially played during my lunch breaks to scout out for the night's adventure.
When it came time to start thinking about a Halloween costume for Bram, it quickly became a no brainer: the Hylian outfit that we were playing as. Link is a fairly popular character for Halloween costumes, and I saw a ton of kids sporting the Champion outfit at New York Comic Con earlier this year. But this one was a bit more interesting looking: there were belts, pads, and a cape. It looks interesting and the type of thing that an adventurer would wear in the game.
The first component of the costume that I made is arguably the most important: Link's Sheikah Slate, the tablet that he carries through the game, using it to access information or transport. I went to my local library, which recently added a 3D printer to their lineup. It took a day or two to get it printed, and once I had it, I ended up leaving the print lines in, to give it a bit of texture. I then gave it a paint job with brown, copper, orange, yellow, and blue. A bit of ribbon superglued onto the handle gave it a bit of extra detail. It came out really well, and it makes a neat prop, even if it weren't next to a costume.
After that, I came across designs for one of the game's Guardian swords that you can pick up in the game. It's a lightsaber-like sword that has a really cool design to it: it's bright blue with a jagged edge. I sent the designs to a friend of mine, who 3D printed it (he has a bigger printer than the library) at 2/3rds scale. The handle is solid plastic, while the blade is hollow. I glued those together and gave it a similar paint job to that of the Sheikah Slate, as they're nominally from the same people. I ended up using spraypaint for the blade, to give it a consistent color, and hand-painted the handle.
It's not perfect, but it came out nicely.
After those parts were done, I turned to the cloth parts. Some were easy to source: I picked up a set of tan pants from the store, and a light, solid-colored shirt that I then dyed the right color green, the two base garments for the outfit. My mother sewed together the tunic that Link wears over that green shirt, as well as the blue cape and hood, and the green cloth belt. Once those were on and trimmed a bit, I wanted to add some more detail to the shirt and cape. I bought some fabric paint, and hand-painted the details directly onto the garments. It wasn't exact, but they came out decently enough.
Along the way, I was putting together the other details. I found a roll of brown marine vinyl on sale, and used that for the leather elements: a chest harness and trio of belts. I had Bram lie down on the vinyl, and roughly sketched out the chest harness, and trimmed it to fit. I hammered a couple of snaps onto it to hold it in place, and added some velcro for extra security. The belts were easy: we just measured and trimmed them out. I used some extra snaps to fashion a loop for the Sheikah Slate, and some snaps on the cross-chest belt to hold the plastic bow that I picked up at Walmart.
Next up was the forearm bracers. Bram ended up ditching these a couple of times on Halloween, but they're useful pieces. I bought some craft foam, which I fitted to Bram and cut out some rough details to glue on. I used Velcro to secure them, although they can easily slide on and off as needed.
The other big foam project was the quiver for the arrows. This is a pretty detailed piece, and I originally thought about painting up a mailing tube or something. I ended up finding a pack of craft foam with adhesive backing: that made it super easy, because I could just cut out the right details, and apply them directly to the foam tube I made. A bit of vinyl wrapped around the middle and attached directly to the belt. I should have done two straps, because it swung around a lot, but it worked okay.
Lastly, we took a pair of mud boots that Bram recently wore out. I took some vinyl and glued it around the top, and folded it over around the edges. I spray-painted primer onto the boots and then covered that with a brown acrylic paint. That ended up flaking off after he wore them a couple of times, but for the most part, they looked okay.
The last thing I put together was the weird shoulder pad. I measured out a circle in my remaining piece of craft foam, and cut it in half, gluing the two edges together so that they were a weird dome. I did the same thing with a piece of vinyl, and glued that onto the foam. I then sketched out a ring of craft foam that I then glued onto the dome. I then secured it to Bram's shoulder with some velcro.
After that, it was done, and when it all came together, it looked pretty good! We ended up taking the costume out to a couple of places: Trick-or-treating at Norwich University the week before Halloween, a Halloween train in Burlington, to daycare and trick-or-treating on Halloween itself. We got a lot of compliments on it — some people recognized it, but others thought he was an archer or Robin Hood. But the best compliment came from Bram, who declared that it was his most favorite costume, and that he wanted to wear it for "a thousand years."
I took him up into the woods near our house for a couple of Hyrule-style pictures:
All in all, it was an extremely rewarding costume to put together. It was a complicated costume with a lot of different parts, most of which I usually don't work with. But more than that, it was a costume with a bit of emotion sunk into it: we both love playing this game, and it's been something we've bonded over. Seeing Bram go into the woods and pretend to be Link is a moment that I won't forget. I'm sad that he'll eventually grow out of it, but I'm sure that we'll figure out some sort of costume for next year that will be just as much fun to assemble. I can't wait to see what it is.

Last week, 9th September, saw the official release of ALEXANDRA MAY's debut EP entitled ONE, through The David Gresham Record Company. ONE comes after the release of her first single, Amazing and her second single from the EP, Highlights.
The EP is produced by Ziggy Adolf and was recorded during 2015 and 2016 at David Gresham Records Studios. ALEXANDRA describes the EP as showing different aspects of herself emotionally and vocally; a sneak peek into where she is at present with her work.
"I want to inspire and encourage people with my music. I believe that each of the songs on my EP may do that. Whether it gives someone the guts to tell someone how they feel about them, or gives them a moment to cry and let their feelings out." says Alexandra.
She chose the word ONE as album title for a variety of reasons – she is a solo artist, with one team that has one goal, and all the songs on the EP have one word as their title. The EP also features two covers done in ALEXANDRA's unique way, namely First by Cold War Kids, and Photograph by Ed Sheeran.
"I've grown a huge amount during the creation of ONE. I think the EP really shows exactly who I am right now. Each new song brings something new to life for me."
Interview: Alexandra May
MA: Hi Alexandra… how are you doing today? Its really nice to be chatting to you again.
Hi! I'm doing great thank you, it's awesome to chat to you again!
MA: So we chatted to you earlier this year for the release of your debut single, AMAZING… How was the response to that release?
Yes we did, and it feels like a life time ago so much has happened. The song has been taken incredibly well! Within a month AMAZING was playlisted to 5FM radio!! It has also been in the top 10 of the TOP 30 on the 5FM charts for 9 weeks now!
MA: Can you give us a short recap on what you have been up to this year? Maybe giving us a few of the highlights of 2016
This year has been the most fantastic roller-coaster! When AMAZING was released, I spent time in Cape Town doing radio, blog and TV interviews. Since then I've done performances at schools, with #Upstandingcitizen (a project created by my sister to assist school learners in Diepsloot) , and Inspired Youth SA – where l've performed to thousands of scholars! In the midst of all this, I've also been working on my EP. AND just recently my 2nd single HIGHLIGHTS was released and is already playlisted with 5fm!
MA: You will be releasing your debut EP, you must be so excited?? What can we expect from this EP? How many tracks will be on this release? Can you describe the album in 5 words?
I am SO excited! The EP is called 'ONE' and has 5 tracks on it (all with one word as their title).
So ….. 5 WORDS …. AMAZING, HIGHLIGHTS, BREATHE, FIRST PHOTOGRAPH
The EP shows different aspects of me and tells a story. The songs vary from romance to heartbreak & inspiration. Life is such a mystery and it's #aMAYzing how inspiration comes. I think the outcome of my EP is like my 'journal' … I can look back on each song (verse & chorus) and see my history!
This Is Only The Beginning.
MA: Do you have any notable appearances or collaborations on the EP?
Yes …. I co-wrote BREATHE with Connel Cruise. It's really cool to work with other musicians as they inspire me incredibly. I would love to work with others too!
MA: What are your thoughts on our local music scene at the moment and is there anything you wish to see happen differently? Are there any local acts that you think need a special mention?
When the law for 90% local music to be played on our radios came to pass, I was suddenly exposed to a huge amount of 'new' local music. What beautiful music there is out there! I think we have a huge amount of talent in SA. We have all the determination, talent and production expertise in the world and we are worthy of international platforms – and it's incredible to see what some local artists have already achieved overseas, like Black Coffee and Locnville.
I just hope these opportunities keep coming our way, and that we are always ready to take them!
MA: Anything else that you are currently working on that we would be interested in hearing about?
I am always busy with writing and looking for new opportunities. I am planning and hoping for a number of performing opportunities very soon. Please keep eyes open on Social Media for dates and venues.
MA: Tell us again, where can we follow you on Social media?

I was terrified!! I really wasn't sure if I wanted to go. I kept thinking is this my gut telling me something or am i just being a tight ass? I thought, if I go against my gut and I'm terrified the whole time, I'll be pissed. But if I don't go and everyone has fun, I'll be pissed. So, I loosened my ass cheeks and hopped aboard. And guess what? It was a BLAST!!! We went flying across the water and watched the sunset listening to cheesy disco music. When we were done I felt so invigorated. I went back to the house and put on my boots and my short shorts and went for coffee. As I was pouring my cream into my coffee I hear A whistle, whoo hoo. I don't turn around but I kinda know the guy is whistling at me. It's not til he does it again that I turn and it' s this actor from the show Rescue me.  I give him a hug and he grunts. We say good bye  and all I can think is, wow walking through your fears does a body good.  Loosen those ass cheeks and it will show. So. for all of you out there afraid to have fun, do it!!! NOW!!!! That energy is contagious and it will make others happy as well.

2nd career proves sweet success for entrepreneur
It's been said that when a door closes in life, a window may open. For Terrill resident Daphne Wagner, the closing door was the slowdown in her career as a real estate broker, selling homes built by her husband, Gra, under the business name GP Kon.
The window she opened led to a growing business making toffee candy and cookies, under the name Mrs. W's Old Time Candy.
"I decided that making candy offered a better future in a down economy than selling homes," said Wagner. "Even in a bad economy, folks still want their comfort food, maybe even more so."
Wagner, 45, had been making chocolate almond toffee candy as a Christmas treat for family and friends using a recipe handed down from her husband's great-grandmother, remembered only as Mrs. W, four generations ago. "It's a difficult recipe to make, involving a great deal of stirring, all of which I do by hand," she said. "You have to know exactly when to take the toffee off the burner or it'll have a burned taste or the consistency won't be right."
Like baby bear's oatmeal in the Goldilocks story, Wagner wants her toffee to be just-so. "I know by the look of it when to take it off. I've been making it for 20 years, so I've got it down to a science."
The recipe for the toffee, as well as the cooking process, remains a closely guarded family secret. "Our toffee has a bold, rich flavor and we use Ghiradelli chocolate exclusively."
With her candy business expanding, Wagner added several varieties of toffee cookies to the mix of products she prepares and delivers herself, including oatmeal, chocolate chip, peanut butter and chocolate almond. She developed the recipes for all her cookies.
"I'm a good cook. I enjoy concocting new recipes, but I also enjoy the sales part of the business because I like to be out meeting and talking with people."
She spends 16 hours over a two-day period every week cooking, while the other three days are spent in sales and distribution. After just a few years, production and distribution have expanded greatly. "We make anywhere from 200 to 500 pounds of candy and cookies a week, using several hundred pounds of butter and sugar.
"I'm essentially a one-woman operation. I have one part-time employee who helps with the packaging, and my husband occasionally helps out, but I do all my own cooking," Wagner said. "I'm not ready to relinquish my cooking duties. I like the quality control, to make sure it's done right."
Although she began the business in her home kitchen, she soon realized that in order to continue, she would have to have her kitchen certified as commercial. N.C. Department of Agriculture regulations, however, do not allow certification of a home kitchen if there is a dog in the house, which was the case in the Wagner household.
"I have a dog, my Chesapeake Bay retriever, Dusty, and there was no way I was going to let him go," she said. "My husband, Gra, said, 'So we're forking out money for a new kitchen instead of getting rid of the dog?' And I said, 'Yeah. What other solution would there be?' "
The new kitchen is in the home that had served as the office for GP Kon Builders.
Local vendors for Mrs. W's Old Time Candy include several popular locations, such as Stacy's Restaurant in Denver, Terrill Country Store, Big Daddy's Seafood, and the BP gas station on N.C. 16 in Denver. Other outlets include Discovery Place in Charlotte, as well as the gift shops in hospitals in Asheville and Charlotte.
"I've been told that the children at Levine Children's Hospital love our Gourmet Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies," Wagner is happy to point out.
Although 50 percent of sales are through her website - www.mrsws.com - Wagner makes all other deliveries herself. "We make it and package it, then hop in our truck with our coolers and deliver it fresh, from Asheville to Spartanburg. We're on the menu at Mellow Mushroom Pizza in Asheville because the owner loved our toffee so much."
Online sales have gone to customers throughout the U.S. and Canada, and Wagner hopes to have her products sold through the Williams-Sonoma catalog as well.
With business booming, Wagner must deal with the demands of being a successful entrepreneur as well as a wife and mother. "I've got 10-year-old twins, a boy and a girl, and a 15-year-old daughter, so I have to strike a balance between my candy business and my family."
Wagner has been surprised by the success: "I never thought it would take off the way it has, but I had time on my hands, so I became the candy lady. It's a happier business than selling houses. I sell happiness and comfort now. In five years, who knows where I could be?"

20 August 2019
Since President Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the Iran nuclear deal in May, Iran has been pleading with other nations to keep its oil-dependent economy alive. The need for economic ties to the rest of the world increased when the Trump administration announced planned sanctions on Iranian oil exports starting in November. For Iran one nation matters more than any other to its oil economy, and it is also Trump's largest global trade rival: China.European companies have been winding down their purchases of Iranian oil, and the threat of sanctions on Iranian business has pushed out banks, many of which had paid severe fines for sanction violations in the past. But China, already the biggest buyer of Iranian oil, is not expected to heed U.S. demands. In fact, the Iranian oil sanctions could give China leverage in stalled trade negotiations with the United States."Now that the trade relationship is in jeopardy, why would they do that?" Derek Scissors, resident scholar of the American Enterprise Institute, said of China's pulling back on purchases of Iranian oil. "If we tell the Chinese, 'Oh, we'll cancel our pending tariffs as long as you stick to the Iran sanctions,' they'll do it in a second."On July 23 a war of words between the United States and Iran erupted, with Trump and his top national security advisor John Bolton threatening Iran. The harsh White House words apparently came in response to recent suggestions from Iran that it could close the Strait of Hormuz, a critical seaway for global oil shipments. The U.S. Energy Information Administration states that by volume of oil transit, the strait is the busiest global choke point for oil. In 2016, data from the EIA showed total flows through the channel reached a record high of 18.5 million barrels a day. China, Japan, India, South Korea and Singapore are the largest destinations for oil moving through the strait.On July 24 Iran's foreign ministry reportedly said it would implement countermeasures against the United States if it tries to block its oil exports. "If America wants to take a serious step in this direction, it will definitely be met with a reaction and equal countermeasures from Iran," Foreign Ministry spokesman Bahram Qassemi was quoted as saying.China, the world's top crude-oil buyer, imported around 718,000 barrels a day on average from Iran between January and May of this year, according to official Chinese customs data — equivalent to more than a quarter of Iran's oil exports. China's increased its imports of Iranian oil by 9.3 percent during the same time period from the year prior and is not expected to slow down purchases anytime soon. The United States expects that China will buy even more oil once the U.S. sanctions take place in early November, as reported recently by The Wall Street Journal.

Christmas trees have started to be taken down, Christmas decorations and lights are carefully being stored in boxes for next year's use and even that lovely mistletoe wreath by the doorway is slowly but surely finding its way to storage. Yes, it's true! The Yuletide Season is over.
But fret no more! Because this means that the Beautiful and Romantic Month of Love is Coming! February, the month that simultaneously makes hearts leap and gives warm feelings to all lovers. That period where people go out looking for ways to express their love and affection to Wives, Partners and Girlfriends.
However, in the craze and confusion of it all, we often forget to practice the most important kind of love – SELF-LOVE! Healthy Self-Love is defined as "A state of appreciation for one's own self that develops from actions that support a person's Physical, Psychological and Spiritual growth." The acceptance of one's Strengths and Opportunities, which if genuinely done leads to the individual "Feeling Good" and "Feeling Free".
So right now,
Does your life feel the way you want it to feel?
Do you feel comfortable with your own body?
It seems so obvious right? Life should feel good!
These and much more is what I am offering those who will attend the "Self-Love: Accept and Celebrate Who You Are! (Featuring: Desire Mapping Workshop) with Nav Scheie Coaching" scheduled on February 27-28, 2016 from 10:00AM – 4:00PM. Please note that this is an "All Ladies Workshop".

Sampar The Impossible C-Rum
Super-concentrated with 24% active anti-ageing ingredients combined for the first time ever, The Impossible C-Rum is the first anti-ageing Skin Guard serum with both preventative and corrective powers, destined to turn back time on skin aged from 20 to 60+ years. Facial firmness is quickly restored and the contour is refined. Plus, the complexion is unified and the skin recovers lost radiance and vitality.
Price: R695
Size: 30ml
Availability: Selected Edgars stores
What we say:
It is always exciting when new international brands arrive on our shores! I had seen the brand Sampar mentioned on several international blogs and all the responses towards the products were positive.
Serum is the one skincare product that I always approached with hesitation as many of the serums I have previously tried have caused terrible breakouts. I was pleasantly surprised with how lightweight the Sampar Impossible C-Rum is. Unlike other serums which have an almost oil-like consistency, this serum has a milky consistency. The serum comes with a pipette, which makes it very easy to dispense the right amount of serum so you are guaranteed not to waste it.
When trying out new skincare products there is always the risk that my skin will break out, as it does not respond well to new ingredients in skincare products. Miraculously my skin took to the new serum in no time and it is now a firm part of my skincare routine.
Considering I have oily skin, I am impressed with the serum's ability to balance the oils in my skin. Since using the serum I have noticed a slight difference in my skin. While I wouldn't say my skin has changed drastically, I am happy with the level of hydration the serum provides and I will continue to use it until the bottle is finished.

text: As a dad, when my children were with me my worst nightmare always was that my kids would get into trouble, into an accident, or be in danger and daddy would be unable to help them. I used to visualize how i would live with myself if ever something like that happened. Now my wife took my kids 1000s of miles away and for days at a time i have no clue if they are even dead or alive. I can barely live with myself like this. Recently i read Jim Bouton (pitcher for the Yankees in the 60's) heart-wrenching account of his desperate attempt to reach the hospital where his daughter lay dying and my hair stood up on end. I WISH NO PARENT HAS TO EVER GO THROUGH THIS

I meant to link this piece awhile back by a fairly accomplished writer who did it for a period. Very good read.
Michael Hastings of Newsweek, who covered the Giuliani campaign among other recent candidates and stories, risks his career with a tell-us-how-you-really-feel tome in GQ:
In my case, it was easy to despise Rudy. I'd spent two years covering the war in Iraq. I had a brother who was currently deployed there as an infantry platoon leader, and I had Iraqi friends who were now living as refugees. To listen to a man so casually invoke violence and warfare—a man who'd never set foot in Iraq or in any war zone—was troubling indeed. I wasn't alone in the press corps. I don't think I spoke to another journalist who ever said one good thing about the man. What did we say? We made fun of his divorces and his wives, that he'd married a second cousin, that he surrounded himself with corrupt cronies, that he had a piss-poor relationship with his children, etc. We talked about his megalomania and his cynical exploitation of September 11.
Still, I ate meals with staffers and campaign managers. I tried to say things that would make me appear sympathetic to Rudy while not technically lying. ("Wow, he sure seems popular." "I was in New York on 9/11, and I have to be honest with you, I was glad Rudy was in charge.") I tried to stay out of any discussion about issues and to just repeat the mantra to myself: I am here to observe and record, observe and record.

Moving into a new apartment has my mind reeling with inspiration to re-decorate! We've slowly been trying to purchase new furniture and get rid of our "college" pieces but it's a slow process to save up for everything!! We just purchased this coffee table about a month ago and cannot wait for it to come in! I've been dying for a marble top piece and this one fit the bill perfectly (literally it's on sale for $300!).
Don't get me wrong, I love my current rug, but a part of me wishes I went with a more neutral option like this one. Plus, I love the fringe sides to add that bohemian flair. My current side table does not match any of my furniture! It's one of those pieces that I've had since my very first apartment! I'm actually still pretty undecided in what I want for an end table. I've been debating wooden (would want a light, raw looking wood), white, or lucite. It's a tough decision!
I love my current sectional but I got it right when I got out of college and it's been through a lot. Like my old roommate getting melted milk duds stuck on it to spilling red wine on the linen cover. It's taken more trips to the dry cleaner than I can count, which has taken a toll. One of the slip covers' zippers ripped and won't stay closed! It's so frustrating!! I adore the look of this leather couch and think it would stand the test of time (or wine) much better than a light linen couch.
What I'm most excited about our current apartment is that we have a (small) space for a dining table! Although I would give anything to have the real Saarinen Tulip Table, there are much more affordable options like this or this. Guess I'll just keep dreaming while I put pennies in my piggie bank!

Editing and Collaboration
As I mentioned on the 'About' page, I have enjoyed doing some online editing and collaborative work. I am also a volunteer beta-reader for creepypasta.com, so if you found me through that link, welcome! If you are interested in getting feedback or working on a project, feel free to use this form to get in touch with me. Simply leave your name/preferred nickname, an email address I can reach you, and a brief comment about what the purpose of contact is. If you are seeking beta-reading or editing, I would also ask you to answer three (*four for series) brief questions, just to move the process along rather than spending time playing email tag!
1) Is there any sort of hard deadline you are trying to meet?
- General turnaround is 24-48 hours maximum, but there are life events that sometimes get in the way.
- If you tell me there is a tight time frame, I can plan accordingly and get it back to you (as long as it is reasonable and not, say, one hour).
- I guarantee that if I accept a job for editing, I will return it to you in less than one week, though that is a long estimate and it should generally be within a day.
2) What is your preferred format for feedback?
- Microsoft Word documents with track changes and the comment feature.I understand, however, that you don't know me from Adam out here on the wild world of the internet, and you may not feel comfortable downloading attachments from me (no apologies needed!).
- Share a document with me on Google drive, which I can then make edits to and comment on.
- Include your document with edits and comments in the body of the email. It is not pretty (edits are bolded, comments are in parentheses and italics), but it works.
3) Finally, are there any specific areas you would like focused comments on (dialogue, characterization, pacing, plot holes, etc.)?
- While my comments tend to be general, I can also fine tune comments to your precise concern. I will still mention other things, but spend a longer time on the specified area.
*4) If you are asking me to look over a portion of a series, what part of how many (estimated) am I reading, and how does it fit in with the others?
- I am more than happy to read series, but I do ask that you help orient me if I am not reading the whole piece at once. I will read the first, middle, last, or whichever part, but just give me some idea of the story arc thus far or in the future.
Also, if you have any other comments, concerns, or questions, send them to me. While I reserve the right to not answer overly personal questions, I'm more than happy to fill you in on anything that would make the process smoother. I check email regularly (I'm a grad student, so I have to), so please let me know if you have not heard anything from me after 24 hours. The WordPress machine may have lost it in the shuffle. Thanks for reading all of this, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Happy Skin x Love Marie: An interview with Heart on beauty, style, and the perfect lippies
Remember back in 2016 when Heart Evangelista-Escudero collaborated with Happy Skin for a limited edition collection? The mini lippies and liners were such a hit that they've relaunched the two bestselling lip liners as full-sized matte lippies!
This is the first time ever that Happy Skin has relaunched a limited edition collection, which goes to show just how amazing these two shades are! And like the other matte lippies of Happy Skin, these new arrivals are packed with Cupuaçu Butter to provide hydration and a bit of sun protection as well. The #HappySkinxLoveMarie Moisturizing Matte Lippie (P649) comes in the shades Heartthrob (deep red) and Skinny Dipping (peachy nude).
Can't choose which shade to get? Grab the Lippies Set (P1,199) instead, and get a bonus sticker sheet of Heart's hand-drawn illustrations depending on where you buy.
I have personally loved Happy Skin's Moisturizing Matte Lippie formula ever since the Preview x Happy Skin collection came out. Though they come in matte finish, they don't make my lips look dry and parched compared to some of the usual mattes we have on the market. In fact, they're creamy enough that I use them for blush as well! I have even tried applying Skinny Dipping on my eyelids for a complete monochromatic look. The formula also lasts quite a while, clocking in at 3-5 hours depending on what I eat.
I like using Skinny Dipping daily as it is a lovely nude that isn't too pale. I have super pale lips so having a pigmented nude is a necessity. As for Heartthrob, it is the perfect red to transition into the shade range. It's not that type of red that screams - I find it to be a classic red hue that goes from day to night quite smoothly.
I swatched them with the original Lip Liners, both of which are sold out already according to Happy Skin co-founder Rissa Mananquil-Trillo, though you may be lucky enough to still spot one or two at their numerous branches nationwide. I know I'll be on the lookout for those as I'm a fan of the lip liners too and would definitely want a back-up!
I was able to sit down for an exclusive interview with Heart, who gamely chatted about her thoughts about makeup, her new online home, and being a woman with multiple roles in real life:
Hi Heart! Congratulations on your collection! Can you tell us more about this latest collaboration with Happy Skin?
Well, in 2016 we had mini lippies and lip liners. And the lip liners, it was received very well, so it was perfect that we came out with a full lippie. We wanted to also focus on the red and the nude because it's actually just what you need to change your look from day to night so yeah, that's why we came out again. We've relaunched Heartthrob and Skinny Dipping!
Those shades are the perfect polished lipsticks. If there's one more shade that you'd recommend for us girls to have, what would it be?
I would still go for something in between, it's either a brighter red or a lighter nude. Really classic shades. I mean, you don't want to look back and say, 'Oh my god, what was I doing?' di ba? You want to keep it timeless. That's what I discovered as well, [as you get older] you just wanna not be so complicated with your colors.
Your lip looks are always on point. How do you create your lip look?
Like with a nude, that's usually the color that I would put as a base. So you could use it alone or I also like blending lipsticks. So sometimes I would mix my nudes with a lighter nude, there's no specific [combination]. With the collection I did with Happy Skin, that would be my basic colors.
Aside from lipstick, what are your other beauty must haves?
I like makeup kits. It relaxes me because I like to fix my stuff. I love organizing so I [am] always very OC with my makeup kits. I always bring like a big tote where I put my makeup kit and I have all my alcohol and everything. I like that. So I think it's a must have to have nice, really cute makeup kits to organize my stuff.
You have always been an icon for Filipino women both in beauty and style. What are the top style tips that you live by?
To just be yourself. You know yourself more than anyone, you know your body type... if you don't feel confident about what you're wearing, change. Doesn't matter if it's not in trend, you wear what you feel comfortable in and you will look good the moment you feel comfortable about yourself.
Who are your beauty and style icons?
I am a fan of Miroslava Duma. She was actually Harper's Bazaar Russia's editor before, if I'm not mistaken. Now she's doing fashion tech, she was really my fashion icon for the longest time. I also like Chiara Ferragni.
I just really like different people that I see when you travel, you know. People that you see walking, you really learn a lot from [them]. Oh I didn't know you can wear this with that, then you kinda do your own version.
You've been teasing on Instagram about your new online home, and we're excited. Can you tell us a bit more about it?
I've been working on it for a long time; it actually got delayed because I wanted to launch my clutch bags there on my website. So I also have a part where I have all these curated products that I love, that I use, and I've been editing the videos as well.
We're actually doing everything on our own, but I do have a team so they're also helping me with the graphics and stuff. It's super nice and I have loads of pictures from past trips, and pictures you don't see on Instagram. I'll also be kind of writing, I'll also be sharing personal things, stuff like that. They'll see [a different side of Heart], they'll get to know me even more. I'm very hands on, too, so it's really me.
Wow, that's exciting. You always have impeccable taste. Can you let us know what's on your bedside table?
I have a novena, the Divine Mercy novena. I have a rosary. I have my eye mask. I have like this oil with mint because I get a lot of migraines. I also bought a few facial-like silicon masks for my neck in Korea. So its just the neck that I really focus on.
Your Instagram bio reads "Wife, Actress, Artist, Author". In this day and age where women are able to take on a lot of roles in life like you, do you have any advice on how to balance it all? How do you do them all so amazingly?
I have a very supportive husband. I'm very, very lucky that I have a supportive husband because I think it's important that you have somebody that understands and supports you so you'll be able to grow, not somebody that kind of constricts you and can't do anything. That could be one.
And [another] one would be, I like to share. I feel like I'm older than my age - I've gone through so much in life, and I have so many things that I'd like to share with not just my fans but [with] people that are curious. Like my beauty tips, I went through so much to come up with this idea, that lesson, so I'd like to share that. That's why I have all these things I'm doing cause I like sharing my ideas.
It was truly a fun and inspiring conversation with Heart. I've started layering Skinny Dipping and Heartthrob, too, as well as paying extra attention to my neck. Can Happy Skin please come out with face and neck masks soon? 😊 You can get your own Happy Skin x Love Marie Moisturizing Lippies nationwide or at happyskincosmetics.com.
Are you Team Skinny Dipping or Team Heartthrob, or both?

Alda Brings Science to Communication Confusion
Alan Alda will talk about his new book June 27, at the Atlanta JCC in a Page From the Book Festival event.
Everyone's favorite dinner table companion might be New York Times best-selling author, actor and director Alan Alda. Best known for playing Hawkeye Pierce on "M*A*S*H," Alda continues to re-create himself with the publication of "If I Understood You, Would I Have This Look on My Face? My Adventures in the Art and Science of Relating and Communicating."
Some may not know that Alda is an active member of the science community, having hosted the TV series "Scientific American Frontiers" and founded the Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science at Stony Brook University.
Alda will talk about the book and science communication at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 27, at the Marcus Jewish Community Center in a Page From the Book Festival event.
Get The AJT Newsletter by email and never miss our top stories Free Sign Up
Jaffe: You've been to Atlanta many times. What vibe do you get from our city?
Alda: I get the elegance vibe.
Jaffe: Your communication theory combines empathy and science — or is it more acting and science?
Alda: It's more the science of empathy, which I first learned about from acting.
Jaffe: In today's contentious political climate, how can we use your research to have better dialogue with those who have disparate views?
Alda: As more than one expert in diplomacy has said, you can't practice diplomacy without being able to see things from the other's perspective. That's empathy, and without it, it's very hard to communicate. The other person becomes wrong, no matter what they say.
Jaffe: Describe the "mirror exercise" and what we can glean from it.
Alda: Two people face each other, and one becomes the mirror of the other. The mirror partner makes the exact same motions at the exact same moment as the person facing the mirror. One inescapable lesson is that you have responsibility for the person you're leading. The communicator has to keep the other person in mind, or it's not going to be real communication. This sounds obvious, but it's often forgotten.
Jaffe: You're appearing as part of the Jewish Book Festival. Is there anything of a Jewish or spiritual nature that we can take away from the book?
Alda: There's an old and admirable tradition of taking in the stranger. It's a remarkable experience, through good communication, to take in the stranger who is sometimes the person closest to you.
Jaffe: My internist recently got a portable rolling computer that she types into during the exam, resulting in reduced eye contact. What is your advice to the medical community in terms of communication?
Alda: "Please turn around, look up and face me. I'm not just a bag of symptoms."
Jaffe: What's the one movie role challenge that would be on your bucket list to play?
Alda: I don't have a bucket list. What do you do when you get to the end of your list? Fade out? I'd rather let life surprise me. It usually does anyway.
Jaffe: Last word: Complete the sentence. A rabbi, priest and minister walk into a bar …
Alda: The bartender says, "What is this, a joke?"
Who: Alan Alda
What: Page From the Book Festival discussion with Holly Firfer
Where: Marcus JCC, 5342 Tilly Mill Road, Dunwoody
When: 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 27
Tickets: $33 for JCC members, $37 for others (includes a signed copy of the book); www.atlantajcc.org/bookfestival or 678-812-4005

Such a delightfully interesting bunch of songs that are neatly and meticulously constructed and arranged. The vocals are unique and pleasantly high in frequency - which allows them to sit neatly on top of the mid and low ranges created by the percussion, backing vocals and the many other instruments... at times 'instruments' are hard to place your finger on exactly what and how certain sounds are made. Nikki Nack is a great album and I love it.
Stand Out Tracks:
~ Find A New Way
~ Water Fountain
~ Time of Dark
~ Look Around
~ Left Behind
Interesting Facts:
~ Merrill Garbus is the creative genius that is tUnE-yArDs
~ Garbus began writing and performing as tUnE-yArDs in 2006
~ Nikki Nack was produced by Malay and John Hill -- better known for their work with Big Boi and M.I.A.

To cast your vote to elect Irv Slosberg to State Senator in District 30 it's not necessary to dislike, demean, belittle, or generally badmouth his opponent.
All that's necessary is to look at the past 6 years of Irv's record of serving his constituency in District 90.
What you will find is a guy who did his job more than well. He did it with a passion. You will find a guy who likes to do whats best for his constituency and doesn't much care about personal gain or reward for himself.
Irv is being forced out of his Representative 90 seat not by an unhappy constituency, but by Florida's law on term limits. He cannot seek re-election to his current seat. He has served the maximum permitted term. If he is to continue to serve, he must do it from another legislative seat. The one he has chosen to run for is Senate District 30 — vacated by another guy, Ron Klein, who is also forced to "move on" by the term limit statute. In this Senate District Irv will be serving the same people as before. He will just be adding some new soon-to-be happy-with-Irv constituents.
I am not attacking term limits. It is the same statute that is ridding us of Jeb Bush. I am suggesting that just because we have to abide by those term limits, we should not be fooled into thinking Irv Slosberg did anything but a great job for us for the last 6 years.
That should naturally lead to our vote to Let Irv Continue to Serve.

Home Again
What a great Mission Trip we took! We worked some, played some, learned some and met a lot of great (interesting!) people (raise your hand!). We had a VERY busy day in NYC and saw things I've wanted to see for ever! We have some very giving folks in our congregation, and lot of them are youth! :-) I just think that's cool.
So at the end of every mission trip I've ever taken, I sit back and wonder what we got out of it. We put a lot into it, from the planning and fundraising, to the trip out and back, and of course, the work. But I've never returned from any trip unchanged. How have we been changed this time?
I think we're much more aware now. I hope we can share our awareness with our friends and families, and our church family too. And I hope that through us, others can become more aware and be changed as well.
Through our work in the gardens, we are more aware of the food we eat - where it comes from and what goes into growing it. Through our learning, we are more aware of the backs on which our food comes - how many hands touch it, how those hands are treated, and the price that is paid for our convenience. Through our study and conversation, we are more aware of our responsibility to help God bring the kingdom of heaven to earth - to help care for the creation and the creature and the many ways we have fallen short. And yet, we're not done yet, and neither is God!
Our theme this year was "On Earth As It Is In Heaven." How are we helpers with God in making the earth like heaven? Our job is to care for God's Earth - from using organic and recyclable products, to caring for those whose voices cannot be heard, reducing our carbon footprint and reusing before throwing away, raising awareness and teaching others.
We still have a lot to do! We may be back home now, but the mission has just begun! Send it!!!
Kick-Off 2016-17!
What a great day it was! We couldn't have asked for better weather and the places we went...great times! Seems like the general consensus that Operation Adventure was over-the-top fun! I laughed so hard the whole time that my sides hurt! Foot Golf was fun too! Who knew there was such a thing as soccer golf? One last hurrah of fun in the sun before fall really hits. And then the J. Webb Farms - so much to do out there - the hayride, baby animals, s'mores, Pokepizza, picnic table checkers, football, sack races, lassos, scarecrows and gourds...I had no idea there would be so much out there, and we didn't even do the corn maze! I hope everyone had as much fun as I did. The best part for me? The people! Glad you were there! Great times! Let's keep it going all year! :-)
Changing our Clocks (again!)
We turned our clocks up this weekend, and it's dark in the morning again. I really don't like changing the clocks, but I wonder if it's not a bad idea right before spring. I don't know about you, but I get spring fever pretty bad and just want to be outside! Maybe dark in the morning will keep me thinking it's not yet spring for a little bit longer. :-)
Don't you wish we could just go back or jump ahead in our lives sometimes? We want to jump ahead to be old enough to drive, old enough to see "that" movie, old enough to drink or vote or go to college or move out or....whatever. Or we've done something we wish we could go back and undo or redo, or go back and then jump over it.
But we've learned from Jesus that it's okay to ask for grace, it's okay to ask for God's forgiveness, for someone else's, and for our own. Sometimes, we're the hardest on ourselves and can't let go of that "ball and chain" we drag around when we've done something we regret.
Without jumping ahead too fast, let's remember that Good Friday is coming (too fast really!), and Easter is right around the corner. These are the two MAJOR days in the life of the church for this very reason. We all mess up. Sometimes we mess up so bad we think we'll never be forgiven and won't be able to get past it. But God loves us more than we can imagine (WAY more!), and forgives us as soon as we ask. That's the easy part. The hard part is extending grace to ourselves, letting go of it long enough to let God take it from us.
GRACE ABOUNDS!!! All Arounds!!! So this Holy Week, let it go, and forgive yourself, even as God forgives you and takes your sin away - as far as the east is from the west!
Love you!
Saturday's Kick-Off
Saturday was a perfect fall day, and even more perfect for our Youth Group Kick-Off! We had a great turn-out! I hope everybody's on board for the rest of the year!
Kick-off was a "taste" of what we'll be doing all year - some mission, some worship, some conversation, and a lot of fun! What was your favorite part? Corn maze, apple orchard, scavenger hunt for food and Detroit Rescue Mission, Millikin State Park on the river and some beach volleyball, or the bonfire, s'mores bar and highlights/lowlights? It was an awesome day, and even better hanging out with all of you!
If you couldn't make it for kick-off, it's not too late to join up. Text your friends and invite them to go with you. 4-6pm Sundays. And don't forget, Youth Choir practice is at 3:15, right before Youth Groups, and there's always some really great snacks (food!) there.
Didn't get a 2015-16 Youth Group shirt? Order yours here so you'll have one to wear all throughout the year, and especially when we hit the road!

WTTS Promotes Brad Holtz To General Manager; Laura Duncan To Program Director
Sarkes Tarzian Inc AAA 92.3 WTTS Bloomington/Indianapolis IN has announced a series on management changes.
Geoff Vargo will retire at the end of 2018 following a 37 years run in the position of President/General Manager. He will be replaced as GM by current Program Director Brad Holtz. Holtz has programmed WTTS since 2002 and later added those duties at News/Talk 1370 WGCL/W241CD Bloomington and Alternative "Alt 99.5" W258BY/WAJI-HD2 Fort Wayne.
Giving Holtz time to move into his new position in January, current WTTS APD/MD/afternoon host Laura Duncan will immediately move into the PD role for WTTS/WGCL now and W258BY by the end of the year. Duncan has been with WTTS since 2002 and also voicetracked middays at defunct AAA 102.1 KPRI San Diego. She also serves as the imaging voice for "105.5 The Colorado Sound" KJAC Timnath/Denver CO.
Following a remarkable 37-year run with parent company Sarkes Tarzian, Inc., AAA WTTS Indianapolis President/General Manager Geoff Vargo will be retiring at the end of the year. WTTS Program Director Brad Holtz will be moving into the GM role effective January 1, 2019. As part of the transition process, WTTS APD/MD Laura Duncan has been named WTTS PD, effective immediately. She will also serve as PD of News/Talk sister station WGCL Bloomington, and will transition into the role of PD for WAJI HD-2 Fort Wayne by the end of the year. WTTS has launched an immediate search for an on-air Music Director.
A 21-year veteran of Indianapolis radio, Brad Holtz started his career in programming and promotion roles with Emmis Communications. He has programmed WTTS since 2002, adding WGCL and WAJI-HD2 duties over the past several years. He was named Station Manger in May 2018.
Laura Duncan has served as MD since 2004, winning Music Director of the Year accolades on multiple occasions. She was also been heard on the late KPRI/San Diego. A 30-year veteran programmer and air personality, Laura will continue to be heard in afternoon drive on WTTS.
Of the transition, Holtz remarked "As I move into a new role in my career, I'm delighted that Laura Duncan will take over the programming reigns at WTTS. As our APD/MD for the past 14 years, Laura has set herself apart as one of the most dedicated and passionate in our business. She'll be an outstanding programmer at WTTS."
