and just to give u a little idea of how much the mechanics have changed in 6.0, heres a few changes ive notice from a couple hours of playing around (only doing the most basic stuff). calories consumption is way up. storage in the stockpiles is...weird now. the amount of logs you pick up are down. tools have durability and have to be repaired now. skill cost way more now (gonna force people to finally specialize). it takes over 6000 skill points to unlock every upgrade in the survival tree branch (the first branch that starts unlocked). log efficiency works different now. and on and on. really there is too much to list i could go on for pages but my point is it looks like almost everything is different in 6.0 and i have just barely touched the version. i read sea level rises now and many other huge changes. this doesnt even feel like the same game anymore. gonna be lots more grinding and hard work in 6.0. the balance is completely different

RE: how do you stop ground pollution spread ?
RE: how do you stop ground pollution spread ?
first of all, sorry i was a jerk earlier. this tailings thing is a sensative spot for me i guess. we used to know exactly what tailings required but it keeps changing and with 5.6 or 5.6.1 i think tailings got way easier to dispose of safely. i dont know exactly what the code says. i havent found anyone who knows exactly what the tailings mechanics are anymore and i dont think anyone is really trying to find out because the mechanics of many things in the game keep changing. 6.0 has MAJOR changes and i would not be surprised at all if the mechanics of tailings are changed again in a couple weeks. or even tomorrow (actually they may already be changed i havent made tailings in 6.0 yet). but with that said i do know some things that work and some things that dont. so i can tell you what i know. here is my basic tailings speach which i have given many times..
- you cant build any type of room. mined stone is not natural untouched stone. u need a room carved out of natural stone. (and possibly ore and coal work now too)
- the room doesnt really have to be completely surrounded with only a door opening. i have dug a 4x4 tunnel into a mountain till i have stone all around me. then i dig down 5 blocks and put a stockpile. ....the huge tunnel hole always makes people think my tailings are polluting but they never do. from the best i can tell it seems like the tailings simply look in all 6 directions. if it sees stone (or maybe ore and coal too) in all those directions (even if its pretty far away (even more than 20 blocks) it will contain pollution.
i know thats just a personal experience and you want code lines but i would be surprised if u get the answer you are looking for so heres mine if u cant get an answer directly from the code.
and once again. i didnt tell you not to try. try rereading the post. i told you not to look at wiki and i directly implied this is the place to look for your answers. so you can keep whining about what i said but you are incorrect again.
RE: how do you stop ground pollution spread ?
i didnt say she shouldnt ask. i said dont check wiki and i implied that the forums is where to go to ask. i answered her vague question correctly. she was complaining that all these answers are peoples personal experiences and whined the devs arent answering and people arent updating wiki for her. she even admitted she wasnt spacific and was being sarcastic. I ANSWERED HER QUESTION. there are all these personal experiences here because things are changing constantly. and as an admin i have dealt with so many noobs not understanding what burry it in stone means. thats the answer. you have to burry it surrounded by natural stone. you can tell that to a noob. u can show em how its done and they will go back to their property and do it wrong. and complain and blame it on all kinds of things. ....the offensive thing is the answer is there yet in comes the whining vague question.
RE: how do you stop ground pollution spread ?
and misusing quotation marks isnt minor. thats what aholes do to change peoples words around. that is intentional. not capitalizing and not using punctuation is minor
RE: how do you stop ground pollution spread ?
whaaaaaa... dont tell me to stay on topic while you are off topic. use some brains
RE: how do you stop ground pollution spread ?
im not using anything as an argument. i used "this is alpha. things change". (quotation marks are for exact quotes. dont use em if you arent quoting someone. that just makes u a liar right from the start). as an answer to a whining general question. keep it in context and keep it accurate

Truly, this is the message of the Kingdom of God, the first will be last, the powerful will be the last, a child will lead them, the captives will be freed.
Power is a word that inspires strong feelings, both negative and positive. Because of power many have been killed, many have been corrupted, and others have suffered terribly. At the same time, power is that which makes us able to achieve any constructive change which we desire.
We have talked a bit about our power and privilege in this place previously, but we probably have not talked about it enough. If this page on the internet is going to honestly reflect our lives here in Nicaragua, then we should be writing about it much more frequently. Power and privilege are something that we think about and interact with every single day.
Every morning when I step out of my front door and start the long walk to our bus stop, I think about my power and privilege. Sometimes it works to my advantage and at other times it works to my disadvantage.
I have the advantage to go to and be accepted in places where others cannot. I may be offered a seat on the bus, when others remain standing. I might be granted more respect as I teach in the classroom, when others have to earn it. I am constantly reminded of my privilege.
Other times my power works to my disadvantage. I am often charged a higher rate by a taxi driver, I cannot bargain for the same low prices at the market, I may be treated differently by the police (read more about a recent occurrence by our friends when they dropped us off at home), I am targeted more often for theft and I am a constant oddity in society.
"The truth is that injustice is easy not to notice when it affects people different from ourselves." -Nicholas Kristoff in a recent New York Times article
In class a couple weeks ago, we were discussing the impact of power in conflict transformation. Each time I discuss this theme in class or in our workshops, I share about the importance of admitting our power. I begin by sharing that I am a powerful person. I am white, from a middle-class family in the United States, a person with a good education base, without special needs and heterosexual. I have a strong support network and a job that provides for more than my needs.
I continued by sharing that almost everyday I wish that this was not my situation. I wish that I could walk up and down the streets of Managua and not be noticed. I feel like I would better be able to live in solidarity with my brothers and sisters here in Nicaragua. But the fact is, I cannot change this. I have to admit to my power.
I must confess that each time I share this, I cannot get through it without tears.
It is important that we are honest about our power for several reasons. If I want to avoid abusing my power, I must recognize it. Power is addictive and can control us if we are not aware of it. I cannot control it, if I am negating it. I desire to use my power responsibly. There is energy in power and it can be used for good. I want to build just relationships with my family, neighbors and community and this requires that I acknowledge and observe my power in these relationships. Ultimately I want to use my power to empower others.
We ended class by reading through the following concepts of power. I hope that you find them as a helpful tool to reflect on.
Key Concepts of Power
1. Nobody is completely without power, to be alive means to embody and utilize the power.
2. Social power exists between people, it exists in individuals and in social relations.
3. Power is not a finite resource or something that can be traded or bought. It is relational, fluid and difficult to measure.
4. Power is neither positive nor negative, but can be used constructively or destructively.
5. When a person denies their power, it is a small step towards the abuse of power. It is very important to be conscious of your power.
6. Inequalities of power create occasions for the abuse of power. In the long run, these inequalities can destroy individuals and their relationships.
7. Individuals internalize the social patterns of domination and oppression, and they are formed by their membership in a group with a specific identity. However, individuals are not fully defined by this identity, because each has the power to act in its own interests.
8. Healthy conflict transformation will work towards a balance of power.
9. The desire of God for the world order is a place without domination.

This is the 3rd installment of my series of dissecting subliminal diss records from your favorite emcees. The first two I did on Biggie and JayZ did tremendous numbers and caught alot of people's attention. Especially since there are barbs being traded throughout alot of those classic records we've often vibed too.
Nas throughout his career has thrown his fair share of jabs at his adversaries on wax, So within this entry I'm gonna reveal the barbs that Nasty Nas was dishing out throughout his career that may have went over many people's heads.
Nas The Cross
Y'all can keep y'all weak beats, from your corny producers
There's a new king of the streets, you're gonna get used to
I was the old king of the streets, that y'all once hated
But now I reinvented myself, and y'all all waited
The lines about the weak beats from the corny producers were aimed at Kanye West and the Rocafella staff. Nas was still at odds with JayZ during this time period and he had defeated him in battle. He was also reminding people that he was the new King of NY because he had won the battle.
I changed it up from that pop shit it's hard to see R&B
Rappers arguably, started fuckin up the game horribly
Definitely aimed at Ja Rule because he was running the game at the time with the R&B commercial sound. The Murder Inc deal had fallen through around this time so Nas possibly could have thrown a jab there because he felt like it.
Zone Out
You got a house in Virginia
The only way you sicker than us
Gettin' bagged with .22's now you's a ridiculous fuck
No need for the gun play, it's ok, cause you dyin' anyway
Nas is talking about Camron here. Cam had dramatic weight loss during that period so Nas poked fun at him and claimed he had HIV to explain it. It was pretty clever because Nas stated that him having HIV would be the only way he would be considered sicker than his crew. He made reference to Cam being bagged with a gun.
The whole, city is mine, prettiest Don
I don't like the way P. Diddy did Shyne with different lawyers
The City is mine is Nas claiming victory over JayZ(The City is mine reference is from Jay's hit single The City is Mine). He also express how foul Diddy did Shyne during their murder trial.
The Message
The BREAKDOWN
Fake thug, no love; you get the slug CB4 Gusto
Your luck low, I didn't know til I was drunk though
You freak niggas played out, get fucked and ate out
Prostitute turned bitch, I got the gauge out
Ninety-six ways I made out, Montana way
The Good-F-E-L-L-A Verbal AK spray
Dipped attache, jump out the Range, empty out the ashtray
A glass of 'ze make a man Cassius Clay
Red dot plots, murder schemes, thirty-two shotguns
Regulate with my Dunns
Seventeen rocks gleam from one ring
Yo, let me let y'all niggas know one thing
There's one life, one love, so there can only be one King</em>
The Fake Thug no Love You get the slug lines were looked to have been aimed at Tupac(Who caught offense to the lines) Nas however a long time ago cleared the air and said that the whole verse including the lines about one life, one love so there could be one King were directed towards Biggie.
Money Over Bullshit
Put a barrel in a capo mouth, 'til his scalp come out
You a kid, you don't live what you rap about
This was Nas's long-awaited response to Jim Jones's shit talk over the past two years. Jimmy refers to himself as a Capo so that was aforementioned and Nas basically went in on his lack of street cred.
Niggas, it's fifty ways to disect the General
If I give ya the top five, you will not survive
Rule 1: cocksucker, keep my name from your tongue
Rule 2: thought ya knew don't fuck with God's Son
Rule 3: see, matter fact, I just wait
If y'all reach top five, then I'mma eat y'all alive
Each one of you guys that claim Hip-Hop is still alive
Like y'all ain't in agreement wit Nas
That shit is dead motha'fucka, it's dead bitch
The interesting part about this verse is that it was directed at many of people who were throwing taunts at him. The Fifty way could have been looked at as a jab at 50 Cent who always had Nas's name in his mouth. The Keep my name out of your tongue reference was a warning to guys like Jeezy, 50, Jim Jones, and others whom were going against him.
The part where he went at guys claiming that Hip Hop was alive was aimed at Ludacris and other southern rappers whom caught feelings about Nas's claim. Ludacris wore a shirt that said Hip Hop Ain't Dead, It lives in the South.
(Live Hip Hop, Live) And I say what I say, and I mean it
(Live Hip Hop, Live) Y'all take it how you want to take it
(Give Hip Hop, Give) Because if you asking: "Why is Hip Hop dead?"
(Give Hip Hop, Give) It's a pretty good chance, you the reason it died, man
(Stay Hip Hop, Stay) It's a pretty good, chance your lame ass, corny ass
(Stay Hip Hop, Stay) Is the reason it died, man
(I Pray Hip Hop, Pray) You don't give a fuck about it, you don't know nothing about it
(I Pray Hip Hop, Stays) You want this paper, be a hustler
(Live Hip Hop, Live) You a hustler, you ain't a rapper, get your paper man
This was a response to Young Jeezy's Infamous "Nas doesn't bust his gun" interview. Jeezy has claimed that he never was a rapper but a Hustler throughout his career so Nas made reference to that in response.
You wanna ball till you fall, I can help you with that
You want beef? I could let a slug melt in your hat
This would be the official start of Nas's battle with Jay and the Rocafella camp. Nas took a swipe at JayZ's right hand man Memphis Bleek. Ball Till you Fall was a song that Bleek had buzzing in the streets and the slug melt through your hat line was further evidence of this being towards Bleek, Bleek is notorious for wearing fited hats. Bleek responded on his street single Got My Mind right and it brewed from there.
Black Girl Lost
Where are you focused, on legit niggas and where the coke is
Nice and Thug Life niggas, yo you seem hopeless
Your value – too much to be measured, I wonder how you
Another jab possibly aimed at Tupac and his crew(Thug Life). Black Girl Lost is similar to Common's I Use to Know H.E.R. where the only difference here is that Nas is actually talking about a misguided Black Woman whereas Common used the metaphor of Hip Hop music in comparison to a woman.
Whereas Common was takened out of context with his line about the West Coast, Nas seemingly took a much more bold approach. Especially where during the course of the song he made it as if Thug Life types were responsible for fucking up a good woman.
It's a possible reach but considering that Tupac was paranoid at that point. He's most likely he took offense to this line as well.
Queens Get the Money
The BREAKDOWN
Niggas is still hating
Talking that Nas done fell off with rhyming
He'd rather floss with diamonds
They pray "please God let him spit that Uzi in the army lining
That shorty doo-wop rolling oo-wop in the park reclining"
Take 27 emcee's put them in a line and they're out of alignment
My assignment since he said retirement
Hiding behind 8 Mile and The Chronic
Gets rich but dies rhyming
This is high science
Now add 23 more from Queens to B-more
I'm over their heads
Like a bulimic on a seesaw
Now that's 50 porch monkeys ate up at the same time
Nasty Nasdaq
Y'all going to bow holmes, it's Dow Jones
.80 cal chrome
Needed time alone to zone
The mack left his iPhone and his 9 at home
My queen used the milkshake to bring y'all to my slaughter houses
I do this for the group home kids in boarding houses
This is that nigga shit that's on the album
For the niggas inside the chalk line in 40 houses
This whole verse was directed at 50 Cent. 50 in XXL said Nas's career was done and that he should retire. Nas broke down different ways how he would decapitate him as a rapper. The Get Rich Die trying line was another obvious stab. He goes on and mocks 50's greed since he felt that 50 at that time was focusing more on money instead of art. The Milkshake bring yall to his slaughterhouse is another response to 50's taunt on Piggybank.

It's a number that's mentioned annually around this time of the season.
Andy Reid is in the midst of his 20th campaign as a head coach in the National Football League, and when given additional time to prepare over the bye week, Reid's teams are 16-3.
The Kansas City Chiefs have an opportunity to continue that success on Sunday following the latest bye week for the franchise since the practice was re-introduced in 1990, providing the team with a week away from the field with the homestretch of the season in view.
"To get a couple of days off is good. [It's a time] to step back, slow things down and think about some things," Reid explained. "Coaches will scout and go more in-depth than we have time to do during the season. [You can] go back and look at things, and players do the same thing, but most importantly, [it's a time] to take a step back, get some rest and get ready for the remaining part of the season."
That included trips home for much of the Chiefs' roster, where the players had a chance to do everything from visiting their alma maters to hosting turkey giveaways, but it also allotted additional time to work on their craft.
"I watched a lot of film," said defensive end Chris Jones, who earned AFC Defensive Player of the Month honors for November on Thursday after leading the NFL in sacks over the course of the month despite playing just three games. "I was just looking for things that I could get better at individually and taking notes."
That was also the case for quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who utilized the bye to work on the little things amidst the hectic nature of a busy football season.
"I think the biggest thing is going back to the fundamentals," Mahomes said. "When you play a lot of games, sometimes you don't get to practice the fundamentals of just how you're standing in the pocket and your platform when you throw. That's something I feel like I always have to go back to. You always get new experiences and you can learn from those experiences mentally, but at the same time, you want to make sure you are physically doing all the right stuff to have success."
The Chiefs have found plenty of that success so far this season, amassing an AFC-best 9-2 record heading into the final month of the campaign, and with the bye behind them, Kansas City has its focus on the homestretch.
"Guys are ready to go and working harder than ever," said linebacker Breeland Speaks. "We know we have some tough teams coming up, so we have to be ready."

Supply chain management is very helpful during tough time when the costs are rising and losing on sales. This chain management helps in maximizing the use of available resources and cash. The following are the few reasons for why development and implementation of supply chain management is important in an organization.
1. The Institute of Supply Management indicates that just a reduction of 2.5% in procurement cost can produce the same amount of profit which a 10% sale can generate.
2. Companies that apply standardized processes have managed to make 73% more profit in comparison to the organizations that lack this profitable chain management according to "Process Standardization Proves Profitable" was published in Quality.
3. By lowering the cost, improving the productivity and with the growing opportunities a return of 40% on investment can be achieved by applying supply chain management in "Build Supplier Metrics, Build Better Products" which was published in Quality magazine.
The efficiency through Supply chain management can be achieved by optimization of individual unified parts. Nowadays many leading companies are getting benefited through supply chain management by procuring resources and providing value to the customers. All other organizations should also apply the formula of making profits by reducing cost in procuring raw material. The professionals in an organization make use of their analysis and implement solutions by identifying areas where action is required. The correct knowledge of using the tools and applying the techniques are the signs of high efficiency managerial skills.
There are techniques based on two types of analysis: the qualitative study and the quantitative study. The Qualitative study or the analysis helps in discovering the significant points in achieving targets through the process of report reviews and interviewing people. The Quantitative data analysis is helpful in evaluation of important data collection, analyzing it and than producing actionable and relative information. The tools using these techniques can be as complex in nature as an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Software Solution or as simple like a spreadsheet. The organizations unique circumstances determine the appropriate tools that are required.
Understanding of Supply chain managerial analysis is more than procurement or purchases made by an organization. The complexity nature of the supply chain requires a vast knowledge in this field which includes understanding and managing the 14 purposeful areas which are: purchasing or procuring, sourcing, logistics or inventories in process, quality supervision or management, stock or inventory control, stock management, receiving, shipping or transportation, packaging, disposal management, warehousing, allocation or distribution, manufacturing supervision, product and service development. Having the CPSM certification adds value to the personnel in the supply chain management industry. If you are trying to make a career in this field it good to have the best qualification.

Introduction Advertisment In Widget In Divi Elegant Themes
But are their products the ideal choice for your site? In the event you sign up with this WordPress mainstay or keep your search? From the end of the article, you'll hopefully have all you want to generate a well-thought-out, educated decision.Let's get started. Advertisment In Widget In Divi Elegant Themes
Elegant Themes have been in operation for eight years, and have served over 500,000 customers to date. In the process, they've grown into a workforce of more than 50 employees working in many countries — a far cry from their humble beginnings working from creator Nick Roach's college apartment.Elegant Themes now offer 87 WordPress topics and five plugins. Access to each of their themes (for example their flagship'Divi' theme — more on this below) and plugins will put you back $89 a year, which makes them quite competitively priced. If you're considering using their products for several years, however, it's actually their slightly pricier'Lifetime Accessibility' plan that's the best value alternative, giving you access to all present and future products to get a one-time fee of $249. But is Elegant Themes the right choice for your project? Let's find out.
WordPress Themes
Let's begin looking at the various themes on offer, before moving on to the plugins.As mentioned, signing up with Elegant Themes provides you access to 87 WordPress themes for the price of what you could pay for only 1 motif elsewhere. But, there are really only two alternatives to take into account. Since the arrival of Divi in 2013, the attention of Elegant Themes has been around making this the only greatest WordPress theme available. Extra followed shortly after, and together they have become the highlights of this Elegant Themes portfolio.
Divi is Elegant's flagship theme, and is really multipurpose, with the capacity to create almost any kind of website.From blogs and company homepages to ecommerce shops and everything in between, Divi is unquestionably a versatile site construction tool.It's also excellent for new WordPress users looking to make customized websites without having to look at a single line of code. But this powerful theme has also become a popular choice with professional web designers looking for a tool to make building websites to their customers more efficient.Some of the reasons experienced and inexperienced web designers alike select Divi are its own useful set of high-quality templates as well as the powerful drag-and-drop builder tool. Loading up one of the Divi designs gives you a fast way to start your website, as well as the new-and-improved Divi Builder may be used to personalize these layouts through an intuitive front-end drag-and-drop user interface. Creating your custom layouts from scratch is not a issue either with Divi.No matter what your ability level, Divi does a good job of democratizing web design. Those new to WordPress can use the Divi designs, combined with the builder's point-and-click interface to make custom webpage layouts. More seasoned designers can do exactly what they've always done, only much faster.Another feature of this theme that's worth mentioning is the Divi Leads tool. Divi Leads lets you run split testing experiments on your website's design and content. If you have ever wondered which headline or colour scheme your customers will best respond to, Divi Leads removes the guesswork.Divi Leads makes it effortless to display numerous variants of your website and its content, so you just have to sit back and wait for the results. Should you need to create websites that convert against their goals — whether for yourself or to your clients –Divi Leads will be an invaluable addition to your toolkit.The only real drawback to Divi when compared with Avada along with another bestselling multipurpose topics is the lack of complete website demos. Therefore, despite not being able to import an entire site in your WordPress installation, you won't be lacking new designs for your website's pages.Overall, Divi is a great choice for creatives who would prefer to create a custom WordPress site irrespective of their technical skills.

The Extra motif (view live presentation ) was launched after Divi, and contains many of its best features. Using this homepage design provides you the capacity to exhibit your best or latest articles in a stylish grid format. You can use post carousels, tabbed areas, mini-article sliders, and custom widgets to display previews of your content.Extra also comprises an image-focused homepage design which uses the featured images from the posts to draw focus on your content.

Over the last year I have noticed something new in the military spouse world. Instead of just talking amongst ourselves when lawmakers give us a bum deal, we've started to make some waves.
We've started to get the attention of people who matter. And now you have a chance to have them teach you to get a literal seat at the table, too. Among those lining up to help -- Sen. John McCain (R-Az.), Rep. Tammy Duckworth, an Iraq war vet and double amputee (D-Ill.) and Hawaii National Guard member and combat vet Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii).
Lawmakers didn't start hearing us because we all moved to D.C. It wasn't because we all suddenly became friends with people who will listen and act. It's because, led by some dedicated spouses with big ideas, we've stopped talking amongst ourselves and started talking into the world. We've started telling the people who matter about the issues that are important to us.
Still, speaking into the world can feel like you're doing nothing but shouting into the great void of twitter and social media, especially if you're like me and stationed somewhere far from anyone who is making a difference with lawmakers. We know that we ARE being heard through pushes like #KeepYourPromise, which looks to repeal the one percent retiree cost of living allowance (COLA) reduction.
But we can do more. We can learn how to advocate effectively for ourselves. We can actually run for office and BE the people who make a difference whether at a local or national level. We can sit at the table.
On Feb. 11 a group of military spouses and supporters is hosting a event in D.C. to teach you to do just that.
When the government shutdown last year forced furloughs and service closures across the US and threatened the paychecks of military members who were still required to work despite the shutdown, a trio of military advocates had an idea: since their representatives didn't seem to understand military issues, why not get into office people who do?
Why not help military spouses BE the representatives?
Rather than form a political action committee, Mary Reding, president of the Military Spouse JD Network and Lauren Wittenburg Weiner and Donna Huneycutt, founders of Wittenberg-Weiner consulting and board members with In Gear Career, decided to focus on bi-partisan education.
And so Homefront Rising was born -- a one day education boot camp for action minded military family members.
"We see Homefront Rising as just the beginning of military spouse advocacy initiative. Military families need to be part of the conversation in Washington, D.C., and Homefront Rising will give them the tools to do that effectively," said Weiner. "When military spouses have a clear space at the table, our country will be stronger for it."
Homefront Rising has a very simple aim: give you "education on how to run for political office, how to perfect your pitch, seeking positions of influence, and the lessons that come from 'losing to win.'"
If you want to learn how to make a real difference, this education day is for you.
Confirmed speakers include a balanced mixed of Republicans and Democrats: Rep. Tammy Duckworth (D-Ill.), Rep. Niki Tsongas (D-Mass.), Sen. John McCain (R-Az.), Nikki Haley, republican governor of South Carolina (via video), Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii), and Kathleen Shanahan, former chief of staff to Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.
Want to attend? Here's the nitty-gritty:
Attend Homefront RisingWhat: Homefront Rising: Military Spouse Political Summit
When: Feb. 11, 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. with a special pre-event Capitol Hill tour and Hill staffer roundtable the afternoon of Feb. 10. (register for more details).

Jen, when we visited you this installation work was still in progress. I'm so glad that we get to see this work in the gallery!
First of all, how long did it take to fold the paper hexagons? The reason I ask is because there seems to be an interesting dynamic between ephemerality and permanence. The reference object, being an ice pile exposed to the elements, is inherently ephemeral in its physical constitution, yet your sculpture suggests an act of preservation.
Could you also elaborate on your encounter with this object?
I'm glad to finally see it in a gallery too, because the hexagonal modules were starting to crowd me in my studio! From start to finish, the project took about 6 weeks to realize, and a lot of that time was spent folding. I tend to make everything by hand and rarely rely on fabricated methods, but I was fortunate to have assistance from some friends with that part.
Ephemerality has always been fascinating to me. I've built temporary architectural structures like tents, created paper sculptures that dissolved in water, and I've been occupying myself with an ongoing series of text-based pushpin installations. I admit that these conceptual choices are partly practical solutions — to avoid major costs and hassle in transporting and storing projects, — a strategy I think I share with a lot of artists. On the other hand, I am aware how much we have come to accept art practices by artists that embrace a wide range of materials and make work that is not meant to be preserved, but are not talking about ephemerality per se, like Thomas Hirschhorn or Sarah Sze. I too choose to use everyday materials and objects to reiterate impermanence or how everything is susceptible to collapse or decay, but I'm not interested in preserving anything, even for posterity. I am aghast at how much stuff there is in my life and the world and I often wonder why I insist on being a sculptor in order to contribute to it. On the other hand, there are particularly interesting moments when I am completely enamoured with stuff, like this ice formation. I like that you used the word "encounter" because that's exactly what the situation was. I saw the formation in April 2006, while traveling in a moving car in St. Marys, my hometown in Southwestern Ontario. I suppose a giant pile of pink and blue ice on the grass outside a hockey rink is not so unusual, but it was such an incongruous and striking thing, planted in the middle of a suburban landscape, that I felt it had importance. I remember yelling at the driver to pull over so I could document it. I've been sitting on the photos since then, and only recently decided to consider them.
Revisiting that encounter eventually led me to Robert Smithson, but I didn't realize the uncanny parallels between our individual practices until later. His essay A Tour of the Monuments of Passaic (published in ArtForum in 1967) was an objective travel diary of his trip back to his hometown, particularly the industrial sites around the area. Snapshots of these sites, shot with his Kodak Instamatic, accompanied the essay. Smithson was interested in those non-sites — leftover structures or characteristics that reacted to or punctuated the landscape, like suburbs, freeways, even piles of dirt and gravel, but he elevated them to monumental stature. As well, earlier essays on Donald Judd and one aptly titled The Crystal Land, which describes a trip he and Judd made to New Jersey to look for crystals, reveal Smithson's interests in crystallography and geology and make formal and conceptual connections to those fractal patterns repeated in the built environment.
Again, this sculpture isn't something I plan to preserve, but I am happy that this project will have a "second life" in an exhibition opening this October at Gallery Stratford. It will be in a different configuration and will be shown alongside some drawings, photographs and objects that elaborate on these associations to Smithson and my history as well. I'm happy to be showing it there so close to where I found the ice form as well.
I'm also interested in your choice of paper, which implies both fragility and strength through its architectural manipulation. I'd like to explore this by way of the notion of monumentality, which was the part of the concept behind this work's deployment at the Deleon White Gallery. Could you elaborate a bit on the logic of monumentality and publicness in the way you responded to the reference object with folded paper?
Paper is a familiar material for me, and I use it often in other projects. And it's true; it's both fragile and strong, depending on how it is manipulated. Waxed paper is great stuff: it is translucent, accepts a fold well, and is inexpensive. It is too flimsy on its own, but it was a real coup to discover that a small strip of paper folded into the shape helped strengthen and add colour to the final individual module.
Initially I felt that I wanted to create a model of the form, something that had height, but I found that there were some nice moments where the modules just hugged the floor. I decided to stick with that strategy, coaxing them into more relaxed, and undulating topographies. There are ribbons and clusters of hexagons that meander across the floor, creating more perforated areas; larger, pyramidal units that bump up against each other like ice floes; and slabs of modules that heave and buckle over each other in seismic shifts. Creating these variations in the landscape was when I really started having fun with the project. I think my material choices and presentation reaffirm its location in a present yet tenuous time frame, while also emphasizing its ethereal characteristics. Still, another way to define monumentality is "presence". The surface of the installation is vast, and forms a pixilated plane that won't let the eye rest. Although it stays close to the ground, this installation does yield an arresting effect.Going back to this theme of ephemerality, I wanted to bring up the way you preserved that fleeting reference object. You did this first by photographing it and secondly by painstakingly folding thousands of pieces of paper. Would it be fair to say that there is a sense of reparation, even lamentation for the original object? That in seeing something fleeting, you chose to honour it, even revalue it through mimetic reconstruction?
I couldn't help but read the installation's flattening of the form to floor-level as a visual cue to the ice pile's logical end–as a puddle. Could this be the reason for the hexagonal shapes — might they reference water molecules?
A snapshot triggers a mental recall of a place or thing, but it can never be preservation. Strangely, I think that the ice form looks more fake in the photographs than how I remembered it, so their accuracy is dubious. I don't think the reparation solely came about in the work either. Although my assistants and I folded about 6000 modules (I ended up using about 5000 in the installation at DeLeon White), I struggle with the idea, here and elsewhere, that quantifying labour or output generates meaning. I won't deny that the folding was an arduous task, but trying to put a number on it makes it come up short. Why didn't we fold 10,000? 100,000? In quantifying that process, outcomes are infinite, but there's only so much time, so much money, so much space in the gallery … It's practical reasons that negotiate those outcomes. I wanted it to be an installation that could be physically navigated, so I placed a reasonable cap on the number of modules I had to produce.
The installation has become an illustration of the original landform, loosely based on about 8 or 9 digital snapshots taken on a whim in 2006. I'm interested how these individual modules create a pixilated model of a memory embedded in a digital photograph, but in a very low-tech way. I would also say it is painterly, which excites me very much. I think there are many ways of representing this landform; I've only presented two here, but plan to do more.
I wasn't thinking about creating a puddle, but I like that connection. A friend of mine wondered if my early training in printmaking influenced this piece, in the way that the surface appears like a halftone screen. At the microscopic level, water does crystallize in a hexagonal pattern when it freezes. This same pattern is a natural occurrence found in honeycomb and basalt deposits. Right now I'm reading The Beehive Metaphor: From Gaudi to Le Corbusier by Juan Antonio Ramirez, which discusses the influence of apiculture (the study of bees) on modern architecture. With that in mind I can see an aerial topography, a cityscape, or even clusters of individual modular residences in my installation. So even something that is simultaneously ordinary and unusual, natural and fabricated still resonates with many tangible references. I think those allusions add some nice layers to the project, but still make its purpose elusive.

While Melnyk also suggested that a new arena at LeBreton Flats wasn't necessarily a given and/or a necessity for the Senators long-term survival in Ottawa, Karlsson did offer his opinion that a downtown arena would be a benefit.
After playing perhaps his best game of the season in Saturday's 3-0 outdoor classic win over the Montreal Canadiens, Ottawa Senators captain Erik Karlsson is skating away from trouble.
Karlsson did his best to stickhandle around the controversial comments uttered Friday by Senators owner Eugene Melnyk.
In case you somehow missed the highly-explosive word bombs Melnyk dropped, he suggested that if attendance doesn't improve, he could either move the franchise or dramatically cut payroll.
"That's none of our business," Karlsson said following Monday's practice, in preparation for Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Wild. "That's what he worries about. We worry about playing hockey. That's all we can control. That's what we get paid to do. We show up here every day and do the best we can at what we do."
It's intriguing that Karlsson chose to take the high road on Melnyk's outburst, mumblings that forced NHL commissioner Gary Bettman into damage control in the hours leading up the outdoor game. Bettman tried to calm fears of Senators fans by correctly stating that no team can move without the approval of the league's board of governors.
Back on Nov. 30, Karlsson was called out by the Senators after he told reporters that he wouldn't accept any kind of hometown discount in order to stay in Ottawa. If and when he becomes an unrestricted free agent following the 2018-19 season, he said he wanted to be paid his proper market value.
Come Monday, though, Karlsson was all business in staying away from business talk.
"Those are things that are out of my control, there's nothing I can do about that," he said when asked about Melnyk's suggestion that cuts to the payroll could be necessary. "Whatever he chooses to say is on him. We just worry about showing up wherever we're told to."
Karlsson is, however, in control of what happens with his next contract. But pressed over and over again on the topic, he was in deflection mode, turning aside the questions to focus on the present.
"I'm happy right now, happy where I'm at, worried about making sure we get out of this slump we're in right now and making the post-season this season."
If we didn't know any better, we might guess that he was coached just a little bit on how to best handle the colossal distraction that Melnyk has created.
While Melnyk also suggested that a new arena at LeBreton Flats wasn't necessarily a given and/or a necessity for the Senators long-term survival in Ottawa, Karlsson did offer his opinion that a downtown arena would be a benefit.
"I've only been here when the rink has been here, it's hard for me to comment," said Karlsson. "But I do think that it would be better with a rink downtown, just for commuting and (because) there's more people down there. I think it will be a cool experience to have a rink in downtown Ottawa since we have a beautiful city."
While most Senators fans are outraged at the Senators' owner – claiming that his words and actions have made a significant contribution to declining attendance, including failing to sell out every playoff game last spring – the Senators' captain couldn't say enough about the franchise's fans.
"This is a great market, it has always treated us really well, whether things are going well or the few times when things haven't gone so well," he said. "You don't only feel it coming to games. You feel it moving around the city. I spend (almost) all my time here in the off-season."
Karlsson says Senators fans are proud of having a team they can call their own.
Early indications are that Tuesday's attendance will again be disappointing. Sandwiched between the outdoor game and Christmas, money is tight and time is at a premium. There's also no natural rivalry with the Wild, no brewing animosity between the teams.
Karlsson, though, was still bursting with enthusiasm on Monday, while thinking back to the 34,000 who braved the cold to watch at Lansdowne Park on Saturday.
"Having the stands full from warm-up to the last seconds of the game was really spectacular," Karlsson said. "They did a good job with everything around it. We got to enjoy more than just a game and the fans did most of the hard work and we appreciate that a lot."

Oculus Disables Gear VR Support For Galaxy Note 7 Amid Secon
Since the Galaxy Note 7 is proven to be at risk of exploding despite Samsung's global recall and replacement program, Oculus has decided to stop its support for the phablet on the Gear VR app. The decision comes after it was confirmed that the South Korea tech giant is recalling and scrapping the Note 5 successor for good.
According to GSM Arena, while Samsung is busy identifying the root cause of the fiery woes of its latest phablet, the Menlo Park, California-based virtual reality company has deactivated its Gear VR support for the Note 7. The phone-centric website also said that this would mean that Note 7 owners who have yet to return their handsets will be denied GR VR service.
Explaining why it has decided to disable the service for the controversial device, Oculus wrote: "Customer safety is Oculus' top priority. Oculus is removing support for all Note 7 devices on the Oculus platform." The company added, "Until further notice, Note 7 devices will not be compatible with the Gear VR. For more information regarding the Note 7, please contact Samsung directly."
To remove support for Samsung's Galaxy Note 7, Oculus issued a forced update to its Gear VR mobile app. Once this update is installed, when Note 7 owners try to use their smartphone with the Gear VR headset, Oculus' quoted statement is displayed right before their eyes.
Android Central reports though the forced update may have irked Galaxy Note 7 owners, Oculus did the right thing to prevent accidents that could have led to facial burns among users of the faulty handset.
The software update reportedly affects the Galaxy Note 7 only, Hence, Other supported Galaxy handsets, namely: the Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, S6, S6 Edge and the Galaxy Note 5, are not affected because they are not at risk ofexploding, as per Engadget.

Assignment Brief
The brain is Earths most complex biological structure. There is still much about the brain that we have yet to understand. The brain controls all functions of our body and mind. The complexity of the brain is not just on a biological and structural level, however, it is also the multi-layered personalities and nuances that makes us individuals. The brain is composed of three parts, the brain stem, cerebellum and cerebrum. We receive information through are 5 senses sight, smell, touch,taste and sound. Are minds are also separated into 3 different parts conscious mind, the subconscious mind, and the unconscious mind. People have compared the brain to a machine as each part has a specific job.
I want to use this idea of complexity in the brain to expand my conceptual design and illustrative skills by producing a large format piece of work. I want to create a illustrative poster that showcases how complex are brains are. Throughout experiments and other illustrative projects the final piece of work must only have a maximum of 5 colours (not including a background colour if needed). The piece must also be suitable for online and print
My poster is going to be seen by the general public on the street and online so it has to be suitable for all ages and have no gender target.
Some things to consider are that because the poster is made for print so the resolution will have to be at 300 dpi. I also must use all my own imagery when drawing. Another thing to consider is the maximum of 5 colours and how is best to use them.

On Monday, Rick Barnes signed an agreement with the University of Tennessee to earn $2.25 million annually for six seasons as the head coach of the men's basketball program.
READ:Barnes' memorandum of understanding
The University of Texas paid Barnes $2,550,000 annually, making him the 11th highest-paid coach in the nation, according to USA Today data.
PREVIOUS:UT hires Rick Barnes as next basketball coach
In addition to the $2.25 million, Barnes could earn as much as $700,000 in bonuses for wins, tournament titles and coaching honors.
For winning the SEC tournament, Barnes could earn an extra $25,000. UT would tack an extra $50,000 onto Barnes pay if Tennessee just appeared in the NCAA Tournament. If Tennessee took home the NCAA Tournament title, Barnes would pocket an extra $500,000.
If the university ever fires Barnes without cause, UT must pay him $1 million per contract year.
According to the memorandum of understanding, Barnes must also disclose to the university all information concerning previous NCAA, conference, or institutional rules violations or potential violations committed by him or his staff during his coaching career. UT must also hand over all material to Barnes concerning pending or ongoing NCAA investigations into any sports program at the university.
The university announced it will officially introduce Barnes as the next head coach during a press conference in Pratt Pavilion at 4 p.m. Watch the conference live on wbir.com and Live at 5 at 4.

Why do so many business owners think that if you posting something on social media, people will flock to you, bang down your door, and buy everything you're selling? Build it (or post it) and they will come is not accurate anymore, especially in 2018.
So why is all the focus put on what is being posted and nothing else? Because that's what is easy to see. Everything else takes a little effort, but that's the difference between treating your social media channels as billboards and using social media to actually socialize with potential customers and clients to generate leads. Whether it be Facebook, Instagram, or countless others social media channels–it's time business owners pay attention to more.
To provide customer service.
This is what gets a consumer to trust you. The time your manager takes to respond to questions and engage in conversation could (and should) drive sales.
"Your social media is your storefront where customer relationships happen," said Karla Campos, Founder of Social Media Sass, an influencer marketing company. "Sure you can have great graphics but if you are bad at customer service, it's definitely going to have a negative effect on your business. We should pay attention to private messages, customer concerns, and customer sentiment."
To time everything just right.
Strategy and timing are part of the full equation. Flexibility and going in a different direction while staying on point is a strong trait to have as a manager.
This means don't schedule everything and call it a day. Be live. Be social in real time. When you're watching your favorite show and see the hashtag to use on Twitter while watching means nothing if you're watching the next day on DVR. You don't want to be late to the party on social media when things are happening now.
To go beyond branding.
Basic brand knowledge, decent imagery, and good writing skills aren't enough.
"Without the strategic pieces like targeting, creating profiles aligned with your ideal audience, regularly reading and responding to the analytics behind which posts engage (or don't) and why (or why not), posting is not only a waste of time but a waste of money," said Jamie Prince, founder of Flourish, an integrated communications agency.
Facebook and Instagram offer great insights. There are also third-party resources you can use too, but why pay for them when the social media giants are telling you how people are reacting to your content for free? Seeing what people are liking, how they're engaging with it, and when it's all happening is vital for moving forward with your strategy.
To listen.
If you're just pushing out content, you're basically the social media equivalent of a person who won't stop talking. (Who wants to listen to someone who only talks, and never listens or responds?)
Social media is not a billboard on the highway for people to drive by and look at. If someone posts a question, answer it. And don't wait a week to do it. Answer it within 24 hours. Make it a point to log onto your accounts once a day to see what people are saying. They're telling you what they like and don't like by their interaction, or lack of, so listen.
To respond… and be social.
It is a two-way conversation with your audience, rather than a one-way conversation, that was owned in the past by traditional media.
"An effective and holistic social media strategy includes having a dialogue with your fans," said Dian Oved, a marketing strategist behind Empower Digital who works to verify big names on social media. "Asking them questions, responding to comments, and paying attention to what is trending on social media is extremely important."
To generate leads.
Remember when I said you can't just post and think people will buy whatever you're selling? That's because people have been trying that for years. Now, you need to pay those platforms if you want to be seen, especially on Facebook.
Spending some money to create a good strategy with images or video and target your ideal customer or client online can bring in quality leads over time to nurture, then convert.
To work with others.
When you post on your platforms, you're only reaching your audience. By teaming up with other brands who serve the same audience, you're expanding your reach.
When you invite influencers or members of the media to post on their social media accounts about you by tagging you or promoting you in another way, it acts as a third-party endorsement.
To look at data.
The great thing about social media, both organic use and paid, is the access to data. You can see what works, what doesn't and modify your strategy.
"Even for the most creative brand needs to utilize data analysis tools, most of which are free," said Monica Dimperio, Founder at Hashtag Lifestyle, an agency that connects luxury brands with influencers.
Years ago, posting for the sake of posting may have worked. Today, social media is like a science and needs to be approached as the complex marketing giant it is.

ohmHook v.II (2016)
The ohmHook is a tool that allows the user to sense the electrical properties of the material they are manipulating while they are manipulating it. Electrical resistance is a material property that we humans have no sense for, but have built ourselves tools to probe. The tools for manipulating conductive materials are separate from the tools that allow us to measure conductivity, meaning any process interested in doing both becomes one of switching back and forth between making and manipulating. The ohmHook merges these two processes into one, inviting the maker to explore what it is like to sense the electrical resistance of a yarn throughout the process of crocheting it into form.
The ohmHook is made from a crochet hook mounted on a circuitboard including a microcontroller which measures the electrical resistance between the crochet hook and a crocodile clip connected to the opposite end of the tool handle. The resistance is displayed as the 10 bit reading of the microcontroller's analog-to-digital converter.
Having the ability to sense electrical propeties of a material as you are manipulating it can allow you to explore it's potential for creating electronics. Highly conductive materials make good connectors between physically distant electronic parts. Materials with stable electrical resistance can be used to detect location of contact on their surface. Materials with varirable resistance often respond to forces such as stretch, pressure, bend and twist with a change in resistance, and can be used to sense a large variety of physical interactions.
The ohmHook does not have to be used for crochet. Use it to probe and explore all kinds of materials, and to invent new ways of building electronics.
