I'm sure the movie blogosphere will be on fire for the next day or two over the rumor that Will Smith has been cast as Captain America in the upcoming Marvel superhero movie.
If you're freaking out about this, don't get your panties in a bunch.
If you think it's the coolest idea ever, don't get too excited.
During an interview with MTV news for the film Miracle at St. Anna (which looks pretty great based on the trailer), actor Derek Luke mentioned Will Smith and Captain America as being connected:
"I heard they offered Will Smith 'Captain America'"
He added that it "shows how times have changed."
As pointed out in the article over at MTV, Marvel has not shied away from re-casting roles different from type. The original Nick Fury was a grizzly old white guy - a cigar-chomping tough guy. In the Ultimate Universe version of The Avengers (as well as in the cameo in the Iron Man movie) he was re-cast as Samuel L. Jackson, and fans haven't had an issue with it.
This, however, would be one hell of a stretch - and the only reason it might have a snowball's chance of succeeding is because it is Will "everybody on the planet loves me" Smith. I mean if he could make Hancock a huge success this summer, that shows people will show up to see him in a movie no matter what.
He can certainly fit the role physically - he buffed up to big proportions for his performance in Ali, and he's been pretty big and muscular ever since. We've also seen that he is capable of leaving the "Aw, hell no" style behind as he did in I Am Legend.
But Captain America? Just how much are they planning on changing the character and his origin? I mean IF this turns out to be true (which I'm not buying at this point), one thing they had better NOT do is turn Steve Rogers into some snarky, bad attitude guy instead of the well known weakling who wanted to do all he could to help his country.
As far as I'm concerned this sounds to me like B.S. The equivalent of "my sister's best friend's third cousin heard from his next door neighbor" that such and such is true.

In September 2008, I was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer, a huge shock to me. Within you will find my journey into the scary world of cancer and my struggles to emerge from it.

Ten years ago I enrolled in Wayne State's Summer Abroad program in Italy. Our workplace had closed down but they gave us a sizeable 'retraining' allowance which could be used at an 'accredited "institution. I didn't think I would go back to work, though Steve did for a while. I decided to learn Italian in situ. I was hesitant to sign up. Six weeks without knowing anyone might make me go crazy. I once nearly had a psychotic break at a meeting in which I had felt totally isolated. This was before cell phones. But I was glad I went up in a very small hill town in the Apennines in Abruzzo staying in a monastery. I started the blog to keep contact with those at home. Sue in Italia. I found out I had cancer shortly after I returned so thus. Sue in Cancerland which turned into Sue's escape from Cancerland..
I feel a bit hesitant to spend a whole week starting tomorrow alone though Naomi will be with me 2 days in the middle. Also many of the same people return year after year including one nice man I spent a lot of time with in bars. He also rides at my speed. But I can call people and I've brought books.
This is my third round of poison ivy and its way worst than the other 2 rounds. Fortunately I have drugs now which make it feel a bit better. I can almost ignore it during the day but nights are tough. I hope the worst is over. My contact was with a dry vine. Can't believe the reaction it set off two days later. Worse, I see lots of poison ivy that I missed.
We are now in a drought though currently a few drops are finally falling. Its supposed to rain a lot downstate while I'm gone. I might get some rain Monday morning, the first day of riding. I have more than a thousand miles under my belt this year. I should be ready.
I am always stressed before leaving. Do I have everything? Most things are packed. I won't leave until noon. Also I was stressed out trying to use a companion certificate before it expires for Steve. Utah here we come this fall.
Love your garden and hope you have a wonderful, wonderful time away. Ten years blogging? I am impressed. Some very big achievements in that time for you too.

ExxxtraSmall – Karla Kush Tiny Stoner Craves A Boner (02.08.2018)
If you couldnt tell by the name, Karla Kush is a stoner. Like a wearing socks with weed leaves on them kind of stoner. As soon as she gets a minute alone, she has to break out the bong and get high. And nothing makes her hornier than smokin da ganja. She takes off her bra, lays out, and starts to dream about all the long dick she wishes she could be taking right then and there. In her fantasy, she uses both hands to suck a dark behemoth before hopping on top and letting it rock her world. She rides it until she squirts, and cant wait to stick it back in her love tunnel. She even does a handstand, letting that cock whip her clit into a frenzy. But when she wakes up, reality sets in quickly. She sets off the smoke alarm, and is super embarrassed. Maybe next time shel will vape.

Major postulations of the Structured Atom Model
Book page - 1 year 8 months ago
Major postulations of the Structured Atom Model
- There are only two fundamental particles - the electron and proton (SAM does not explain the particles themselves).
- The proton and the electron are a duality or opposites yet do not annihilate each other.
- There is only one fundamental force: the electrostatic attraction force that is acting between the proton and the electron.
- The nucleus is following the "spherical densest packing" principle and shows specific groupings in the elements defined as nuclets.
- The atom must have a definitive organization which is responsible for all attributes of a particular element.
- The neutron is not a fundamental particle, but is redefined as a connection between a nuclear electron and its neighboring protons.
- A stable element has a stable nucleus, i.e. no movement, without cause, in the structure of the nucleus.
- A sphere (proton) must always be part of one of the 3 identified geometrical structures, namely the tetrahedron (4), the pentagonal bi-pyramid (7), or the icosahedron (12).
- The inner structure of the atom (nucleus) dictates the outer electron structure (orbitals).
- Protons all have the same properties and cannot occupy the same space.
- Electrons all have the same properties and cannot occupy the same space.

State to give property rights to slum dwellers
Once the bill was passed in the assembly, people living in slums would have rights over the place where they were living over the years without any authority.
A proposal for introducing the Odisha Property Rights to Slum Dwellers and Prevention of New Slums Bill, was approved by the state cabinet on Tuesday night, housing and urban development secretary Injeti Srinivas said.
Slum dwellers would be given accommodation in apartments and could be provided houses after shifting at certain places, the provisions of the bill said.
"Mandatory reservation of 10 per cent of built-up area for economic weaker sections and low income groups housing in all apartments and group housing schemes is also part of the bill," said Srinivas.
A slum dweller could not be evicted before in-site settlement or resettlement except as provided in the proposed legislative measures, he said.
A state Slum Redevelopment and Rehabilitation Authority with the chief minister as the chairperson would function as the state level apex body for effective implementation of the proposed legislation.
"Of about 70 lakh urban population in Odisha, slum dwellers constitute 25 per cent. Of the 8 lakh people in the state capital, over 3 lakh live in slums," Srinivas said.
State would be the second state in the country after Jammu and Kashmir to bring such a legislation, he said.

10 Things I Hate About You
Is a book about two sisters, that are so different. The eldest is a wicked one, who has no friends. Younger is a naive and stupid girl, who dreams of seeing a handsome man. But a strict father forbids daughters any enthusiasm (dating) until they come of age. Even the pleas of Bianchi cannot melt the heart of a father. However, there is one chance to break out on a date. To do this, she needs a guy for the sister-prick Kat at any cost. She can even pay the boy for a date.
Young Kat has a complex character, and she hates boys. Her sister Bianca has a different opinion. At the same time, she is fond of two schoolboys: handsome Joey and new student Cameron. Learning that the eldest daughter of Kate with all her strength as opposed to communicating with the guys, dad softens the sentence and gives Bianca hope. But such a condition is impossible to fulfill, because the embittered Kat does not want to meet someone.
The resourceful Cameron comes to the rescue, being in love with Bianca. He bribes the local hooligan Patrick and asks to look after his older sister. The guy takes the money for the job at Joey's pitching. Cameron learns about all the interests of the wicked and helps to conquer the heart of the obstinate still. There is a miracle, and two sisters go to a party. Between Katarina and Patrick there is sympathy, so the boy does not want to deceive her. But Joey gives money, and the hooligan returns to business again.
The graduation is coming, and Bianca is waiting for her father's permission. A sincere conversation with his sister explained the reasons for Katarina's aggressive behavior. It turns out that she slept with Joey, and he threw the girl. At the graduation, the handsome model sees Bianca and Cameron, tells Katharine about the treacherous plan and betrayal of the pseudo-club. Kat breaks off relations with Patrick. A few days later, at a school lesson, the girl reads a poem dedicated to her lover and talks about her spiritual torments. The guy is touched by her honesty.
In the parking lot, Kat comes to the car, where he sees a new guitar and Patrick. This is his gift for the money received from Joey. Katarina forgives the beloved. Look for more details in freebooksummary.com, as it has the best description of the big varieties of books.

Gardner School's annual One Room Schoolhouse event passed last week, and all of the details are here in this week's Falcon Flash!
Students from kindergarten to 8th grade were mixed into seven teachers' classrooms as they would have been in Colorado's early days. Teachers created lesson plans on four subjects: math, language arts, social studies, and science. The math lesson involved mean, median, and mode. Students also guessed amounts of rocks and candy in containers. The language arts lesson involved creating stories from ancient Native American pictographs…and then reading them to the class. The social studies lesson involved creating a diorama to show that Native Americans used what they had to create homes and villages. Finally, the science lesson involved a game of ball-in-hole, in which students put together a game of paddle and stringed ball, in which the object was to put the ball through a hole in the paddle. All students also had a lesson in PE, where Mr. Crosson set up an obstacle course of sorts for the students. Students and teachers alike found the day fun and all learned a lot!
Next week, students and teachers return to their normal work as students and teachers prepare for Thanksgiving and the last few weeks before Winter Break. Our friends in the weather business tell us winter is coming. Are you ready?

Now that I am going to be a homeowner, I needed to start looking for home insurance so I thought that I should try to get quotes for both home & auto. I checked on the web and came across several sites that will get quotes from many different companies. After choosing MyInsuranceSearch.com, I submitted my information and found that I can get my car insurance for $32.00 less a month from what I am currently paying. What a deal! My home owners insurance will still be relatively expensive because my house is in Florida and does not have a fire hydrant anywhere close to it, but I am very happy about the auto rate.
You must be 18 and live in the U.S. to qualify for rates from this company.

Wrap Around Porch With Round Columns – Maybe you have wondered enclosing your porch, patio or deck? Just think how nice it is to not have to hose off your garden furniture or sweep your deck every time you wanted to sit out and relax. There are screen porch windows on the market which allow you to turn your porch, patio or deck into a three season room without having to re-do all of your framings. All you need are the openings and also you can have customized screen windows created.
Love breezes? Unlike conventional double-hung windows which only open half way, there are 4-track screen porch windows which offered 75% of the way. Wonderful for breezes and appreciating the view. What is so neat about these porch screen windows is that they're made from a transparent vinyl rather than glass. So there is no problem with glass breaking or shattering. And they even come in many tints for protecting your porch from sunlight. If you have some DIY experience, then you could install those screen porch panels yourself.
50 covered front home
Or you can hire a contractor to perform the same. However, in any event, a remedy like screened porch panels could be much more affordable than having a conventional room inclusion or custom built porch built. What about year round pleasure? When available you get to enjoy the fresh air breezes when temperatures are mild. When closed, you are protected from the rain and snow. And needless to say, you stay dry and warmer.
50 covered front home
choices: A room addition, a screened porch kit or screen porch windows that are flexible to meet your needs. Each includes its own virtue. Each permits you to appreciate your porch, patio or deck to the maximum. So only imagine relaxing and appreciating your porch all year round. No longer getting chased indoors by bugs.
No longer having to go indoors if it rains. If it becomes cool outside, just close your screen panels and keep enjoying your porch months more. How about having a picnic or evening meal in your porch? Ever get chased indoors due to the bugs or the rain? Enclosing your porch can turn that area into a wonderful harbor which it is possible to enjoy just about year round. You do not have to sacrifice the opinion or the breezes either.

First off I want to say thank you guys for being so invested/interested/engaged with my posts about Tricore and all of the information I've gotten/am sharing. Its been a really cool journey for me and being able to share it with you has been really cool.
So the last meeting was all about food- and balancing out my intake of protein carbs and fats. Finding out my energy balance and matching that with the "right" amount of food. If you missed the last post check it out here.
This most recent meeting has been the most fascinating one so far, but also kind of frustrating (more on that later…) SO about 3 months ago, when I was in the thick of feeling really crappy and I had reached out to Chris about taking the first steps to getting better.. he gave me a list of bloodwork panels he thought that I should have run. I brought them to a primary doctor and had them order it. I had to give so much blood you guys.. like SO much. Their functional blood chemistry panel is super comprehensive, which I actually really appreciate. I have no issue with needles or blood or anything like that but after I gave the blood I was SO dizzy, lightheaded and nauseous for almost 2 full days– another reason why hydration is so important!
About 2 weeks later my results came back and my doctor said everything was normal- all of the values were in the normal range. Which at first you'd think well that's awesome, right? Well yeah… but also I was confused and a little frustrated at why I felt SO bad if everything was fine. I got a copy of my results and brought them to Chris. He sent them off to his lead dietician that he works with, Beth… and she went to work analyzing them a little differently.
You see, what I didn't know was, the ranges that doctors look at are very generic. The limits (the highs and lows that they set) are dependent on the area you live in. So for example, if you live in a place where diabetes is really prevalent- the numbers are way different than in an area where something like diabetes isn't as common. So for me- they took my general info as a 29 year old female living in Naples Florida and compared it to others. Which is kind of frustrating because we are ALL individuals with different needs and requirements to be healthy. What I need as a 29 year old female vs. another 29 year old female might be 100% different. So what Chris and Beth did was take the information they knew about ME (my lifestyle, my fitness level, my daily energy expenditure etc) and set the ranges differently than the doctor to get a TRUE range of where I was at. This is super comforting to me because I went from feeling like a statistic at the doctor, to an actual human being.
So the meeting with Chris was a videoconference call with Beth for the clinical nutrition consultation. We kind of jumped right in to the report and she was really great at slowing down and explaining what the values meant and what exactly we were looking at/talking about. They analyzed SO many things; from my vitamin D levels, to my hormone levels, to everything in between. With the doctor- all of my levels were normal… however when Chris and Beth looked at my results, there were a lot of areas where I was deficient which TOTALLY validated how I had been feeling for so long.
There were a couple things that I predicted would be low (iron being one of them) but there were several things that I had never considered could be causing be problems (vitamin D being low, zinc being low, hormones being way off balance etc.)
This bloodwork and meeting with Beth was really eye opening. There is only so much you can do with balancing your nutrition traditionally– but the Functional Blood Chemistry Report and Clinical Consultation shows what you might need to add in as far as specific foods for your needs and/or supplementation etc. Beth also said something that was interesting to me- that people will sometimes (most times actually) just start taking supplements or multivitamins without ever knowing if they TRULY need them or not. Sometimes TOO much of something can actually throw off other biomarkers on your blood work and lead to more problems. So having the bloodwork be such a true representation of where you are, and be such a great blueprint for where to go in the future is awesome.
Chris and Beth really left no stone left unturned in the meeting and I feel so much better knowing that I am on the right path and can set up further meetings with my doctors to get things back to normal.
Knowledge is power, and having all of this information about my body and what it needs to feel my best is really empowering and I SO appreciate Chris and his team for being so thorough and helping me get back to 100%!

Retailers know that email is a vital medium of communication with consumers that drives product awareness, social interaction and revenue. Developments in digital marketing and the ubiquity of smart phones in countries like the UK have changed the way people access and use emails, and Email Marketers are taking note.
So what can marketers do to make sure their emails are getting through at the right time, to the right people, and in the right way? Here are some quick tips to do just that.
Tip #1: Responsive Email Marketing
Mobile marketers should already know that smart phones have become a vital touch point for consumer interaction, with 60% of Britons said to own a smartphone, and studies claiming users check their phones an average of 150 times per day. That number is only growing. And Email Marketers should be aware that 47% of email opens happen on mobile devices.
So why are so many retailers still not making their emails responsive? Creating responsive emails doesn't require plenty of work, and can be as straightforward or complex as you like. Here is a great infographic that illustrates how to create a responsive email. It contains snippets of code that you can implement directly.
Making sure your emails are responsive can have a dramatic result on your click-through rates and conversions. And keep in mind that you are designing for multiple screens, but check that your customer base is using them first. The experience is most important, so make sure you are taking all these variables into consideration before you design your responsive emails.
Email Marketing will turn overwhelmingly responsive in 2014, and whether you are inputting code yourself or leaving it to an agency, don't forget this vital step.
Tip #2: Strategy – Content Tailoring
Once you have decided on a responsive email design, you should consider the next step. Strategy.
You can't deliver the proper content to your subscribers and customers if your message is askew. So make sure your brand message is clear and your promotional materials are relevant to your email base. This is more important than ever for email subject lines, since Gmail users now have promotional emails grouped together, and having an eye-catching subject line is key to standing out from the crowd.
The variety of content should also reflect your approach as a brand and create value to the consumer. You should consider email open and click-through rates over time and by device, to see if there is a difference in how people use their devices and when. This will guide the type of content you produce. For instance, if you know your most loyal customer segment opens and clicks through your emails mostly on Sundays with their mobiles, you can target them then with special offers that look great on their devices.
The key is to make sure your content is valuable, and relates to both the message your company wants to send and the products/offers your consumers want to use.
Tip #3: Behavioural Email Marketing – Event-triggered Emails
Event-triggered, or behavioural emails are tailored emails that you can input into your ESP to respond to certain triggered events. For example, if someone abandons a cart, your triggered action would be a retargeting email displaying the basket of items not purchased. Sometimes this is accompanied with a promotional discount to nudge someone even further down the conversion funnel.
You can use behavioural emails for a number of reasons, however retargeting is the most effective and essential to your email marketing campaigns. They are a way to personalise the experience for the recipient, and have proven to increase clicks and conversions. They are also used in lifecycle email marketing, which takes into account behaviours over time.
Tip #4: Lifecycle Email Marketing
Lifecycle email marketing is a great way to follow your customers through their journey. The key is automation with a personalised touch.
You should start with segmenting your email base into cohorts, which is a great way to deliver the right email message to the right consumers.
Everything about Cohort Analysis from Ecommerce
Dividing your email base into segments, or cohorts will allow you to see a total view of the types of customers and characteristics your company attracts. Is there is difference is click-throughs/ conversions between your newest contacts, and those that have been customers the longest? Surely.
You should account for this by sending emails that correspond to where certain segments are in their purchasing or conversion path. An easy way to do this is to think of your customers as Interested Prospects, Engaged Customers and Lapsed Customers, as this excellent blog post explains further.
Setting goals for your individual email campaigns that correspond to where your email base is on the conversion path will ensure that you deliver highly relevant messages to the right people at the right time.
Tip #5: Analytics
Tracking how well your email marketing campaigns are doing is an integral part of the endeavour.

What You Need To Consider When Purchasing a Spy Camera
Nowadays, there is a wide variety of spy cameras varying in size, price, and quality, for this reason, it can be challenging to select the right device to meet your requirements. Here are tips to help you choose the right spy camera for you.
Firstly, know what your purpose for installing the spy camera is before making any buying decisions. Identifying your needs before making purchase will give you an idea of the type of device that you are looking for. If you want to add security to your property or home, you may choose a spy camera that is movable to follow movements.
Whether you are buying from a physical store or online shop, make sure that they have a wide selection to choose from. This may include nanny cameras, smoke detectors, pen camera, hidden web camera and wearable hidden camera. Some retailers may have all the types of spy devices, hence choose a retailer that deals with home surveillance because they are likely to have what you need.
Doing research on the product is another important tip when you buying your spying camera. It is a good idea to examine the advantages and disadvantages of the device so that you can choose one that meets your requirement. Read the products online reviews to find out the experiences of other customers who have used a similar spy camera.
Another key consideration when selecting your spy camera is the reputation of the seller. When you choose a dealer with a good track record, you will most likely get a device that has no defects and this can save you both time and money. Also, reputable retailers can help you when you have any concerns and even help you choose a spy camera according to your requirements.
While choosing your spy gadget, you should consider the various features that come with it. You might want to consider a spy camera with high resolution image and night-vision to enable you capture images in dark conditions. Other features include, storage space, power source, motion activated and remote control.
Like any other product, it is crucial to think about your budget when selecting a spy camera. The cost of each spy gadget will vary on its quality and the features available. For instance, cameras with night vision are expensive compared to spy cameras that are wireless.
Lastly, it is important to ensure that you purchase from a manufacturer or retailer that offers a considerable warrant for the device. A good spy camera should have at least one-year manufacturer warranty to avoid frustrations when it stops working after a few months.

Genetic code = E/E Ml/Ml Id/Id W+/W+ Pti1-L/Pti1-L
The black line is my second attempt at breeding for a black bird. The first line was progressing nicely when we started noticing that the soles of their feet were yellow. This came from a recessive gene that two of the birds were carrying. I always set the darkest egg in the hope of improving the egg colour but the darkest eggs can also carry other recessive genes. This is how the yellow feet began appearing. My second attempt was to breed a cuckoo female to a black copper male. At first some of the chicks carried the Ks gene for slow feathering. As I continue to breed, I see fewer chicks carrying this gene. Some breeders like the slow feathering gene because they say they get better feather quality. In my initial breeding the males had a small amount of gold in their hackles but now they are a solid black. The egg is a rounded in shape and occasionally reaches a number seven on the egg chart. This line is one of my favourites.next breed

New research shows economic fundamentals, growing jobs and population, and impact of foreign buyers tax make Victoria a good investment cityNovember 14, 2016

New research shows economic fundamentals, growing jobs and population, and impact of foreign buyers tax make Victoria a good investment city
Economic fundamentals suggest Victoria may outperform many BC real estate markets
Langley, BC: New research by The Real Estate Investment Network (REIN) finds Victoria, BC meets criteria for a stable and sustainable investment market and finds the city poised to outperform many other non-Metro-Vancouver real estate markets in BC. As the foreign-buyers tax shifts demand to Victoria, the report finds this is only one of many factors causing the upward movement of property demand and values; our research shows that growing diversity in economics and demographics support this demand.
REIN's Authentic Canadian Real Estate (ACRE) system, including the Long-Term Real Estate Success formula, predicts growth in GDP, jobs, and population, leading to sustainable real estate investment markets. Applied to Victoria, The REIN Victoria Economic Fundamentals report, which can be found at www.reincanada.com/research-reports, finds Victoria is growing in the three key indicators, and more:
"From this moment forward, given the changing demographics and economics occurring in the city, investors and homeowners will witness longer periods where the market will outperform the majority of non-Vancouver markets in the province, with fewer slow-market periods than historically expected" says REIN's Senior Analyst Don R. Campbell. This increase in stability in the housing market will lead to increased stability in an investor's portfolio.
The increased economic diversity resulting in an expanding job base make the city attractive to people seeking jobs and affordability. As a result, Victoria is becoming a vibrant centre of commerce and education. Indicators on REIN's Long-Term Real Estate Success formula suggest real estate investors and homebuyers willing to do proper diligence will find reasonable returns in Victoria.
In addition to this research report, REIN's demographic and economic analysis and research predict that, in approximately five years, the highest demand for rentals and purchases will trend towards two or more-bedroom unit properties.
About REIN:

The Olive Oil Center of Excellence of GEA signs contract for the largest oil mill in Asia in the Kingdom Saudi Arabia. The project, which exceeds three million euros, offers an integrated solution that includes civil engineering, automation, processes, training and machinery
GEA Olive Oil is proud to annunciate that has signed one of the largest contracts to build and supply the industrial equipment of the biggest oil mill located in Saudi Arabia. This amount of this important operation exceeds three million euros.
The project led by GEA has allowed to combine the efforts of several Spanish machinery manufacturers to configure an integral solution, practically a "turnkey" oil mill. The contract signed with The National Agricultural Development Company (NADEC) one of the largest agricultural production groups in the Middle East and North Africa. NADEC is the largest Organic Olive Oil producer in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Middle East, this project located in Al-Jouf target 5 million of organic olive tree in one single farm of 3000 hectares. This project is the fruit of the long and successful cooperation and relationship between NADEC Group and GEA Group in the food processes, especially in its branch of Dairy Products and the success of the first phase of the Project.
This second phase of the project is an expansion of the Olive Oil Plant installed successfully in the first phase in 2016. This new cooperation between NADEC Group and GEA Group includes civil engineering, automation engineering, processes and all the necessary industrial equipment. "We give to NADEC a differentiated and an integrated solution from the hands of a single supplier," explains Rafael Cárdenas, head of the Center for Excellence in Olive Oil of GEA, based in Úbeda (Spain).
Once the construction process is completed, it will lead to the largest and most modern oil mill in Asia, which confirms GEA's global leadership when it comes to projects of large-capacity olive oil factories.
The GEA Group generates close to 500 direct jobs in the Iberian Peninsula and has eight work centers in Spain and Portugal, located in important economic centers such as Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Huelva, Ubeda, Vigo or Lisbon. In addition, it is listed on the German stock exchange MDAX (G1A, WKN 660 200). GEA Iberia develops an intense activity throughout the year to improve the knowledge of the olive sector at international level and to organize and support training actions aimed at professionals in the olive oil sector.

Extra Virgin Garda DOP olive oil's distinctive traits are its naturally delicate flavor and its elegance.

Bei last.fm kann man als User, auch wenn nach dem letzten Update leider sehr viele andere Funktionen eingeschränkt wurden und die Seite leider nicht mehr taugt, um interessante Konzerte in beliebigen Städten zu suchen oder seine eigenen besuchten Konzerte zu dokumentieren, nach verfolgen, wie oft man ein Album gehört hat. Im Jahr 2016 haben sich bei mir "Not To Disapppear" von Daughter und "Love" von Get Well Soon in den ersten drei Monaten deutlich von den anderen Platten abgesetzt. Jedoch nähert sich ihnen mit großen Schritten "Prospect Of Skelmersdale" von The Magnetic North.
Das zweite Album von Hannah Peel (John Foxx And The Maths), Simon Tong (The Verve, Blur, Gorillaz), Gawain Erland Cooper (Erland & The Carnival) wirft, nachdem das Debüt "Orkney: Symphony Of The Magnetic North" ein Konzeptalbum über die Orkney Inseln, auf denen Cooper seine Kindheit verbrachte, war, nun einen Blick auf die Geschichte des Ortes Skelmersdale, in dem Tong aufwuchs. Ob auf dem dritten Album dann die Eigenheiten des nordirischen Craigavon, dem Heimatorte von Hannah Peel, ins Visier genommen werden?
Wenn es erneut so schönen, verträumten, verschachtelten und orchestralen Folkpop gibt, wie auf "Prospect Of Skelmersdale", dann sehr gerne!
Lo-fi folk blends with rich string arrangements and exquisite interplay between vocalists Erland Cooper and Hannah Peel while found recordings such as documentaries, public information films and even sat-nav directions are frequently worked into the mix.
"Death in The Woods" is a particularly captivating number with jaunty, fairytale folk and whispered lyrics offering enticing glimpses of a town endowed with magic and mystery. "Signs" covers the whole spectrum of low and high production values. It opens with what sounds like an Open University lecture and a grainy drum machine. Acoustic guitar strumming accompanies murmuring vocals which are slowly wrapped in expansive string arrangements.
"Exit" is more sparse. Piano and guitar melodies give prominence to tender lyrics. A crescendo of strings gently builds and collapses as fireworks explode. It feels like the end of the main act with the remaining three songs providing a sublime encore. "The Silver Birch" gushes frolicking melodies, "Northway Southway" is mighty and gentle and a cover of "Run of The Mill" by George Harrison, a famous early advocate of Transcendental Meditation, ties the album up neatly.
Prospect of Skelmersdale presents a hazy sequence of tales and images. It's not easy to piece together or get one's bearings, but it doesn't really matter. It's music to get lost in as the trio transcend the bricks and mortar of the mundane world to reach a higher plain.
(Drunken Werewolf)
Opening track Jai Guru Dev starts with a raga-like drone and chanted group vocals before a sampled female voice with perfect BBC diction invites us to 'hold hands around the outer perimeter of the Golden Dome site' in order to bless the opening of the centre at the Ideal Village. A blessing like this, as well as being a simple prologue, is a kind of affirmation giving the musicians symbolic freedom to further tackle their subject. Pennylands does so with urgent acoustic guitar and more overlayed group vocals as well a string section – chamber pop meets the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.
Death In The Woods feels like one of the record's defining moments, describing the quotidian in exalted terms – a combination of banality and spirituality, synthy blips and earthy vocals. Sandy Lane once again makes use of sampled speech, acoustic guitar and gently ornamental strings. The result is something like a cross between John Cameron's Kes soundtrack and the orchestral (or-kestral?) pop of the Divine Comedy.
Signs combines history lesson (a telling reference to Thomas More's Utopia) with a melancholy personal narrative, Cooper's voice swelling in and slipping out of the mix to great effect, while Little Jerusalem is maybe Peel's standout vocal performance, another tale of small-town ennui and loneliness set before a musical backdrop that threatens to swoon into Cocteau Twins territory, but restrains itself throughout.
Remains Of Elmer is striking for its manipulation of found sounds and its repeated, descending electric guitar part, while Cergy-Pontoise's (it's Skelmersdale's twin town, if you're wondering) percussion could almost have been glam in another life. Exit begins with sweet, simple piano – almost Satie-esque – before sampling a generic Sat Nav, which brilliantly becomes a metaphor for separation in this beautifully aching song. Then there is a well chosen, piano-led cover of Run Of The Mill, originally by everyone's favourite musical transcendentalist, George Harrison, sung here beautifully by Peel.
In all probability Prospect Of Skelmersdale won't find a home under the hauntology banner – it doesn't sit comfortably with the rustic occultism at one end of the spectrum or with the techy, depressed minimalism at the other end. But despite that, it creates a sound – temporally disjointed, difficult to pin down – that appeals to the part of our subconscious mind that 'remembers' possible but unrealised futures, and does so in a way that is both hopeful and melancholy. It is a rare album that manages to be socially aware without being preachy, sonically vibrant without being derivative, but this one ticks all the right boxes. A superbly refreshing listen.

The house "Les Agnelles" dates back to 1823 and has been renovated and remodeled. It is surrounded by spacious fields and emits a sense of well-being.
The contemporary décor and furnishings complement the more classic structural design.
Each room is welcoming and unique. There is a large room on the first floor that combines a dining room area (with table and chairs) and lounging area (with sofa and fireplace). Equally warm and alluring is the smaller library, complete with a sofa and games.
The left side of the house opens to a lovely patio with wrought iron tables and chairs. (Originally, the patio was a school playground.) The comfort of the chaise longues and the beauty of the trees and flowers on the right side of the house contribute to a very peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.
Meals: During your stay at Les Agnelles, you will be able to experience our local cuisine as foods served at mealtime are grown locally. The hostess serves her own delicious yogurts and brioche for breakfast and serves savory breads, cheeses and lamb (or different kinds of meat) for dinner. Of course you will also have the opportunity to enjoy some of France's finest wines with meals.
If you would like to book the entire house for a large gathering of friends or family, it can be arranged.

Jack and Yen Ling - Part 2
The wedding dinner was held near my place which was good as it allowed me more time to work on the morning shots and produce the slideshow for the dinner.
The surroundings for the restaurant made it a nice place for relatives and friends to catch up. There is a pool nearby and people can walk around instead of just sitting in the dinner hall.
Jack and Yen Ling were lucky that they had three cute lil girls as their flower girls. Their smile and enthusiasm for the night was very refreshing indeed.
Of course, the star of the night were the couple and as they stroll in, cheers, applause can be heard and the couple was smiling from ear to ear.
It was a wonderful night and they were very gracious host. They took care of us and made sure we had something to eat although we were too busy running around to worry about eating.
I wish them both the best and it was a blast covering their wedding :)

Birds of a feather
Nature Physics
July 28, 2014
Changes to the flight course of a flock of starlings can be described using a linear dispersion model, where information about the altered direction of the first bird propagates to others in a bird-to-bird transfer of information. These results, reported this week in Nature Physics, reveal the underlying mathematical similarities between collective motion in bird flocks and quantum phenomena in bulk systems.
Around sunset, starlings fly in tight formations of a few hundred to tens of thousands, and sometimes up to millions, of individuals. How they manage to move coherently without colliding or breaking up the formation has been debated. One presently supported model states that bird flight is a collective motion, with no particular leader, in which information is diffusively transported between birds.
Asja Jelic and colleagues filmed a flock of 400 starlings in the wild using three cameras, enabling them to track the individual trajectory of each bird in three-dimensions. Their findings conflict with the collective motion model: they found that a few 'top birds' change direction first, and that they are positioned near to each other within the formation. The directional information subsequently reaches all the members within roughly half a second. Thus, the rapid information transfer is not diffusive, but rather the collective behaviour can be described using the language of phase transitions and symmetry breaking characteristic of quantum matter.

Your heating and air conditioning system is undeniably one of the most significant aspects of maintaining your home. However, many of us often take cooling and heating for granted. But, since they are one of the most essential systems in the house, once they don't work, it can be quite easy to tell. When dealing with any problem with your furnace or cooling system, trust AccuServ Heating and Air Conditioning for an outstanding service.
At home, nothing affects your comfort more than your HVAC systems. But, did you also know that your heating and cooling system can also affect the aesthetic and market value of your home? In addition to your home décor, your furnace and cooling systems can also have an impact to how your interior space feels and looks.
Therefore, if you are looking to sell your house in the future, do not jump into any décor fixes until you have assessed these basic home utilities. Cooling and heating accounts for over half of the average utility bills of homeowners, so when it comes to renovating your home, is it best to work from the inside out. Ensuring the stability of the most basic utility system in the home should come first before anything else if you really want to improve the value of your property.
If your furnace is old, you might want to consider investing on a new installation or replacement, especially if it had been repaired many times over the years. Do not swap out your unit for just another one. Select a high-quality, energy-efficient system that will help increase the value of your home and lower energy costs effectively.
If a new furnace or HVAC system is a costly investment for you and you still have a good one but just needs some repair, then a quality system repair may be necessary instead of buying an entirely new unit. In this case, make sure that you work with the best repair company to help you with the process.
Whether your furnace needs replacement, some tuning up or you just need to upgrade your existing one to a more reliable and energy-efficient model, the right company can provide the best solutions for you. If you don't know where to start or which HVAC company to trust, contact the experts at AccuServ Heating and Air Conditioning. With long years of industry experience and a dedicated team of technicians, the right company can deliver high-end services that will go beyond your expectations.
Make a thorough research before you settle with any company to help improve the beauty of your home and enhance its environment. When dealing with financial difficulties, trust with the company that provides friendly and fast financing options. Regardless of the service you need for your heating and cooling system, choosing the right company can make a huge difference in creating an inviting home environment.

Essays on Antisemitism
Essays on Antisemitism
The present volume of essays on antisemitism is an outgrowth of a symposium on antisemitism arranged by the Conference on Jewish Relations in 1935. The essays by Ralph Marcus, Solomon Grayzel, Joseph Reider, Guido Kisch, Samuel Rosenblatt, I. S. Wechsler, Jacob R. Marcus and Z. Diesendruck were prepared for publication from the papers presented at this symposium. They have, in the main, been allowed to stand in the more informal presentation in which they were originally prepared. The essays by Mark Vishniak, Raphael Mahler and B. Weinryb were written specially for this volume. Only the paper by the late Professor Diesendruck has been previously published (see Jewish Social Studies, vol. i, 1939, p. 399-408).
The first part of the volume deals with historical studies of antisemitism in particular epochs or geographical regions; the second part brings together several essays which aim at a more general and universal analysis of this momentous problem. It is important to point out to the reader, however, that this volume does not attempt to present a comprehensive treatment of the entire subject of antisemitism, either historically or analytically. Many important epochs or geographical areas in which antisemitism has prevailed are not touched upon here. The editors do feel, however, that the essays here collected represent a fresh approach to some of the older problems of antisemitism or, in other cases, new treatments of hitherto neglected aspects of the subject. In the same way no attempt has been made in this volume to treat of the subject . . .

Porcelain is not only the goth drag queen of our dreams, but she is also an incredible tattoo artist and performer. Her performances themselves push boundaries and feature her swallowing fire and suspending off intricate sets.
This queen may have gained popularity when she appeared on Season 2 of Dragula, but it wasn't her first time in the spotlight as she is a former member of Blood On The Dance Floor. Her style is totally dark and twisted, and she is able to do incredible things to her face with makeup, sometimes even featuring prosthetics like a pig snout.
Laila McQueen
McQueen, who appeared on Season 8 of RuPaul's Drag Race, is a punk-rock beauty queen. Her style is the perfect blend of goth and glamour, and we can't get enough of her.
Victoria Elizabeth Black
This queen knows how to rock prosthetics and special effects makeup. She showed off her haunting style, which often pays homage to the Victorian-era, throughout Season 2 of Dragula and hasn't stopped since. She is a pro of making ugly things, such as death and decay, beautiful and impossible to look away from.
The final queen on this list who was also on Dragula Season 2 is known for her signature pointed nose. She creates looks that appear to come straight from the place nightmares are made of and is able to transform herself in ways that seem impossible.

NOTE: ImageBrief closed for business as of March 1, 2018.
As you may expect, there is something more than microstock only. Imagebrief offers different approach, different business model, different license… and different opportunities for stock photographers and buyers.
ImageBrief Process
This is how the process is described by Stephan Leeds of ImageBrief:
The ImageBrief process is simple: a creative in need of an image posts a request and thousands of photographers around the world find a shot to match and upload it for consideration. But after spending the effort to find and upload the image what happens next after the brief ends? Well that's where our curators come in to play. Let us illustrate this with an example.
Recently, Banjo advertising in Sydney, Australia posted a brief for a 'Contemporary back yard panorama with a modern, stylish, deck, garden, pool that needs to be "Australian adaptable"'. They posted the brief at 2pm Sydney time, the brief was reviewed and released by one of our curators in New York before they tucked themselves into bed and Banjo had the image they needed and requested it for purchase all before the Australian based photographer, Boris Gozin, had even seen the brief. How? The power of our 'Discovered for You' feature.
When an image buyer posts a brief, our curators will dig through submissions to past briefs to find suitable images and submit them on our photographers' behalf. This gives ImageBrief photographers a team of agents that look for every opportunity to match a great image with a live request, capitalising on the time spent uploading an image and delivering images to buyers within minutes of them posting their brief. Speed being one of the biggest factors that fast moving advertising agencies need to consider. ImageBrief photographers can submit previous submissions to briefs on the run from their phone by using the ImageBrief app, making it even easier and quicker to get the right images into briefs. Want to witness the speed that our curators can work to match the right shot with a brief?

Amy, April, Matt and Austin's word problem answerQuestion # 2
Question: You and six friends have ordered pizza for the party. If the total for the pizza will be $22.75, how much money (estimate to the dollar) does each person have to contribute?
Answer: They will all pitch in $3.25.
Solution: If you divide $22.75 by 7, you can get the answer because everyone is trying to pay the equal amount of share to the pizza including you. If you estimate the answer first, it would be alot easier because you can figure out if the answer is close to the estimate and you can tell if your right or wrong.

Thea Hopkins Selected As A 2019
Western Arts
"Attention, landslide! The discovery of "Love Come Down" (6 tracks) by Thea Hopkins may have the same effect as "Astral Weeks" by Van Morrison, or "Lorca" by the late Tim Buckley. Nothing less"-- https://www.paris-move.com/reviews/thea-hopkins-love-come-down/
"An artist whose narratives drip with metaphor and imagery" -- Americana UK
"Superb performance at the Atkinson" (UK)--http://www.fatearecords.co.uk/magazine/2014/TheaHopkins.html/

We ask that parents keep a written record of all adventures completed by marking them as complete in the Cub Scout handbook. If completion is ever in question, you will be asked to show your book as proof of completion. If for any reason you are unable to use Scoutbook, you should notify a leader and keep him/her updated as to your progress toward rank.
On the advancement trail, a Cub Scout progresses from rank to rank, learning new skills as he goes. Each of the ranks and awards in Cub Scouting has its own requirements. As you advance through the ranks, the requirements get more challenging, to match the new skills and abilities you learn as you get older.
Regardless of what age or grade a boy joins Cub Scouting, he begins with the Bobcat rank. It involves learning about the values, signs, and symbols of the Boy Scouts of America and Cub Scouting. While he is working on Bobcat he may work simultaneously on the rank for his age or grade, but he must finish Bobcat before any other rank is awarded. Note that Cub Scouts do not go back and work on ranks missed due to their age at the time of joining.
Tiger, Wolf, and Bear
For Tiger, Wolf, and Bear ranks, a Cub Scout completes seven adventures as described in the youth handbooks."Adventures" are collections of themed, multidisciplinary activities representing approximately three den meetings of engaging content. Six of the adventures are required and one is chosen from among 39 different electives, 13 of which are available to each of these ranks. Elective and required adventures may be undertaken at the same time. As the boys finish an adventure, they are awarded a belt loop that is worn on the official Cub Scout belt. Belt loops should be presented as soon as possible. When the requirements for each rank are fulfilled, the rank badge is presented at the next pack meeting. Note that although participation with an adult partner is required for all Tiger adventures, recognition items are for the Cub Scouts only.
Just as with the previous ranks, Cub Scouts enjoy seven adventures as they earn the Webelos and Arrow of Light ranks. For Webelos, five are required and two are elective. For Arrow of Light, four are required and three are elective. There are a total of 18 electives available that are shared for these two ranks. An adventure pin is awarded for each completed adventure. These may be worn on the Webelos colors or on the front of the Webelos cap. The boys are free to work on required and elective adventure pins at the same time. Adventure pins should be presented as soon as possible. When the requirements for the Webelos or Arrow of Light ranks are fulfilled, the rank badge is presented at the next pack meeting.
More on Webelos and Arrow of Light Adventure Pins
Many adventure pins help Webelos and Arrow of Light Scouts develop interests in areas that may lead to hobbies or career choices. The Webelos and Arrow of Light den leaders and assistants, and the den chief, may handle portions of instruction during meetings. But some pins will have more meaning when a knowledgeable adventure pin "counselor" works with the boys on the requirements, providing resources, leading field trips, and giving other useful service. A parent or family member, pack leader, teacher, coach, or other adult with talents or skills related to the specific pin may serve in this capacity.
The highest rank in Cub Scouting is the Arrow of Light Award. Earning this rank prepares a Webelos Scout to become a Boy Scout. Webelos Scouts who have earned the Arrow of Light Award have also completed all requirements for the Boy Scout badge.
This award is the only Cub Scout badge that can be worn on the Boy Scout uniform when a boy graduates into a troop.
You may see a special square knot displayed on the field uniform of adult leaders who earned the Arrow of Light as a youth.

http://www.hongkiat.com/blog/55-interesting-social-media-infographics/Related: Work Office • bmvn
Social Media Statistics It's always difficult to understand the real power of social phenomena. So I've decided to track social media statistics based on official information (see the spreadsheet embedded below). My infographic shows social media as boxes. Each area is proportional to the number of monthly active users. The De-Schooling Scenarios: (1) Free Market Rules Two of the six scenarios -- Free Market Rules and Free Learning Rules envision the dissolution of formal education under the pressure of "free market" or "free learning" forces respectively. This post briefly describes the Free Market Rules scenario, which can be summarized as "business wins; efficiency works." The related worldview of education goes like this: Education is a business, thus the market is the main force of change. Education's main commodity is information/knowledge transmission.
19 of the Best Infographics from 2010 Research can sometimes be a bit of a chore, but when knowledge is wrapped up in charts, cartoons, or even some heart-holding robots, suddenly "information" isn't such a scary word. What do Facebook's 500 million users look like? Who's suing whom in the mobile world? How does FarmVille stack up against actual farms? These questions and more are answered in the infographics below. Sign In To Your Account Netflix uses cookies for advertising, personalization and other purposes.

Not only can you download any of these icons and symbols for free, the site also pops up a neat little factoid for each one. 9 ways to grow your Twitter following (ethically) 5.

FORUM: Improving education involves everyone NOVEMBER was parent-teacher conference season. My wife and I met with our kids' teachers. We are grateful for their instruction and try to be their allies. Parent involvement -- like other aspects of our unequal society -- can emerge at the extremes, excessive or inadequate. For my wife and me, reading to the kids or helping with homework is often rushed. Still, conversation with our children -- over homework, reading together, reflecting or joking -- is cherished time.
50 Informative and Well-Designed Infographics It's impossible to comprehend complex data or analyze large amounts of information, if we only use words or texts. Information graphics or better known as infographics are visual explanation of data, information or knowledge. These graphics are excellent visual tools for explaining huge amounts of information where complex data needs to be explained immediately and clearly. Support This process is for Host Provider.

Planning a social media strategy? Then try this. « 'If only we'd thought of that' Posted by Richard Pentin on September 25, 2010 This fabulous chart by Advanced Human Technologies Group really struck a chord with me. Not only does it beautifully explain the process one needs to go through to develop a social media strategy but it also made me realise just how much I need to brush up on my powerpoint skills! You can download a copy of this Social Media Strategy Framework here. (Discovered via Frank Striefler)
The six most interesting things that happened in media this year, according to me The year-end roundup post has become something of a New Year tradition, to the point where some might argue they have become a cliché. But just because they are ubiquitous doesn't mean they aren't worth something — at their best, I think they force us to sit back and take stock of what happened during the year, and often patterns will emerge that even we might not have fully appreciated at the time. In that spirit, I decided to take a look at some of the things that I found most interesting in the media-sphere this year, and what I came up with reinforced my view that despite all the turmoil and upheaval, this is a tremendously exciting time to be a journalist — or for that matter, anyone who is interested in journalism and the flow of information. Like my friend Dan Gillmor, I am enormously optimistic about what is happening, despite (or in some cases because of) the disruption.

Whether you drop mount or top mount these decks, the frames act as a large washer to spread the clamping force of the truck mounting hardware over a large area to reduce stress cracks and make the mounting more rigid. For drop through mounting the trucks, the truck base plate goes on top of the deck and the Backing Frame goes on the bottom. For top mounting the drop through deck, the Backing Frame goes on the top of the deck and the truck base plate does on the bottom of the deck.
