CHICAGO, Tuesday, August 28, 2012. For the first time in almost 30 years, a major Picasso exhibition will grace the halls of the Art Institute of Chicago. The exhibition, Picasso and Chicago, will open February 20, 2013 in the Museum's Regenstein Hall. Over 250 of the finest examples of the Art Institute's extraordinary collection of Picasso's paintings, sculpture, prints, and drawings as well as major loans from private collections in the city will be on display. The exhibition will coincide with the centennial of the Armory Show at the Art Institute, the first major exhibition of avant-garde European art presented in the United States and the first time Picasso's works were displayed in an American museum.
The museum began its collection of works by Picasso in the early 1920s with two figural drawings (Seated Male Nude and Sketches of a Young Woman and a Man, 1905 and 1904/05, respectively), and in 1926 welcomed The Old Guitarist (late 1903-early 1904) as a generous gift of Frederic Clay and Helen Birch Bartlett.
Over time, the collection has expanded to include paintings such as the classically inspired Mother and Child (1921) as well as landmark sculptures including the cubist Head of a Woman (Fernande) (1909). In addition, the museum boasts an exceptional collection of works on paper that include the monumental Woman Washing Her Feet (1944) and impressions of his most iconic works such as The Frugal Meal (1904), one of only three examples of the famous Blue Period etching actually printed in blue ink.
The presentation will not only survey Picasso's extensive material experimentations, but will also highlight subjects that are emblematic of the artist, including the emotive individuals of his Blue and Rose periods, the bold geometric forms of his Cubist years, the monumental personages from his post-World War II production, and his specific contributions to the city of Chicago. Special presentations on the themes and influences of the artist will be showcased throughout the museum's encyclopedic collection, allowing visitors to explore his broad and enduring impact. The exhibition will run through May 12, 2013.
Other exhibitions scheduled for the 2012-2012 Season include:

Caterpillar Inc said on Monday that retail demand for its construction and mining equipment continued to be sluggish in April, though the sales picture appeared to be improving in almost every market outside North America.
The Peoria, Illinois-based company said worldwide dealer sales of its earth-moving machines fell 9 percent in April from the prior year.
Continue Reading Below
That represented an improvement from March, when sales were down 11 percent, and February, when sales were down 13 percent.
The worldwide decline was led by continued weakness in Asia, where dealer sales were down 20 percent in April, compared with a decline of 24 percent in March and a decline of 26 percent in February.
North America took a turn for the worse in April, with sales falling 18 percent, compared with a drop of 11 percent in March and 12 percent in February.
Latin America continued to be a bright spot for Caterpillar. Dealer sales of machines in that market were up 28 percent in April, compared with a rise of 12 percent in March and a rise of 3 percent in February.
In afternoon trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Caterpillar shares were up about 0.4 percent at $88.05.
Caterpillar's monthly sales figures are based on unaudited reports provided to the company by its network of independent dealers.

Fast-moving fire fueled by dry brush shows flames over 30 feet high in Buffalo Grove just after 1:10 p.m. Sunday [PHOTO CREDIT: Emanuel Krakauer]. See more than 300 photos on Facebook.com/CardinalEmergencies.
Buffalo Grove police and firefighters responded about 1:06 p.m. Sunday to a report of a field fire near the 400 block of Cedar Court South. Emergency responders received a report that a small brush was caused by two juveniles setting off firecrackers, and that an off-duty police officer had the two juveniles in custody at the intersection of Brandywyn and Cedar Court South. The fire grew quickly with flames as high as 30 feet or more. The fire also spread rapidly toward the west with winds reported at about 15 mph to 18 mph from the northeast and from the north-northeast direction. Winds were also gusting as high as 26 mph during the fire.
The flames were frightening for residents that lived near the fire, as they watched a wall of fire edge toward their homes. Homes were definitely threatened by this brush fire. Fire command called for a second alarm, which brought firefighters from Arlington Heights, Barrington, Countryside, Deerfield-Bannockburn, Palatine, Palatine Rural, Prospect Heights, Grayslake, Highland Park, Highwood, Lake Bluff, Lake Forest, Lake Zurich, Lincolnshire-Riverwoods, Long Grove, Mundelein, Wheeling and other communities to assist Buffalo Grove firefighters.
Firefighters wet down the roofs and decks of homes near the fire, and also wet down the dry vegetation to the west of the fire. Several utility poles caught fire, which caused arcing wires. A widespread power outage also occurred in the neighborhoods nearby. The area is also covered by high tension power lines.
Firefighter operations for a threatening brush fire, especially on the West Division of the fire, near Brandywyn (See over 300 photos on Facebook.com/CardinalEmergencies).
Small fires continued to burn Sunday evening, and firefighters were called to a grass fire that rekindled as late as 7:25 p.m. Sunday near the 500 block of Coventry Lane.

Robroy Industries Raceway Division (Gilmer, Texas, USA) released its new PVC Coating Repair Kit for PVC-coated conduit systems, fittings and accessories. Unlike traditional PVC touch-up compounds that only repair minor damage to interior urethane or exterior PVC coatings, the PVC coating included in this Repair Kit adheres to bare metal surfaces in mending corrosion damage.
The PVC Coating Repair Kit uses a custom formulated two-part epoxy that bonds to PVC and steel or aluminum substrates. As a result, it can mend damage that's already occurred, as well as prevent environmental exposure that could lead to corrosion of steel and aluminum substrates. The epoxy sets in 6 minutes and cures in 3-4 hours at 70 °F (21 °C).
Designated as a UL Recognized component product by the global safety company UL LLC (Northbrook, Illinois, USA), the epoxy meets nationally recognized safety standards for flame resistance. Among its other performance properties, it is heat resistant up to 550 °F (288 °C) and freeze resistant up to -67 °F (-55 °C). In addition, the epoxy, when fully cured, is resistant to water, gasoline, and other petroleum products.
The Repair Kit includes an emery cloth to prepare damaged surfaces, mixing tools, cleaning cloths, an applicator tool, instruction sheet, and chemical information for the compound. Additional information and cut sheets are available on the manufacturer's website.

There is nothing like a good hairstyle to make you feel great about yourself and at least temporarily dispel the blues. While most people tend to be fussy about the hair length and style while going in for a makeover, if you are the adventurous kind who is looking for a complete change, then a short hairstyle may be perfect for you. Bobs are classic short hairstyles. One of the most popular styles right now that you can opt for is the graduated bob which is take on the classic bob hairstyle that we are so used to seeing.
These  hairstyle can be styled and colored in many ways to create a unique look. Graduated bob hairstyle also look very elegant, and stylish, hence they are a good choice for office as well as parties.
The Cut
To cut your hair in this graduated bob hairstyle, cut your hair short at the nape of the neck and longer towards your face. The graduated layers should be properly cut to give body and movement to the cut. The sides should be neatly step cut to give the unique graduated haircut look. The parting can be a straight side one or an uneven side parting. To try a long bob haircut, cut your hair short near the nape of your neck, and long and graduated steps near your side of the face, but the length should be just above your chest, and part your hair in the middle. To create a unique look, you can try out some of these ideas with your bob haircut. To create an interesting look, style some hair wavy and some straight. You can also accompany your graduated haircut with sweeping side bangs. The bangs will make the graduate bob haircut look soft. To complement your graduated bob haircut with a fringe, there are two choices. First, you can go for a straight blunt fringe up to your eyebrows for a bold look. Second, you can cut your front hair in wispy fringe and sweep them sideways for a soft look or keep them straight for a cute look.
Ideas For Styling
- The look can be made to look extremely versatile depending on how you style the hair. If you have a round face, then do not despair over the fact that this hairstyle will spell doomsday for you. In fact with long side swept bangs, this hairstyle is perfect for women with round faces. And Hair styled with side long sweeping bangs with black hair base and 4 – 5 red highlights in the bangs.
- Layered graduated bob hairstyle is very popular with many women opting for gradual tapering instead of sharp angular cuts which gives the texture of the hair a more casual look. The length of the hair at the front can be as you want it, from earlobe length to collar length or the ever popular chin length.
- Graduated bob with side bangs with black hair base and deep brown highlights.
- Haircut with side bangs, with a blonde shade hair base, and highlights of darker blonde shade.
- Graduated bob with blunt fringe for black hair, for a bold look.
- Graduated bob with wavy and straight hair mix. Light brown hair base with deep brown highlights.
- Style your hair with wispy side fringes till your eyes for a sexy look or till eyebrows for a soft look. Accompanied with deep reddish-brownish shade of hair base, and medium-dark brown highlights.
Choose hair coloring ideas which suit your eyes or skin tone. If the hair colors are chosen wrongly, the hair color can make your complexion look either dull or too bright.
Celebrity with graduated bob hairstyle?
Victoria Beckham
Ashley Simpson
No discussions about celebrity  graduated bob hairstyle is complete without mentioning the queen of style. Known for her edgy and individualistic style, Victoria Beckham has, over the years, gone for variations of different short hairstyles from close crops, gamine, pixie to bobs. Perhaps one her best looks is the one she is wearing now, which is a graduated bob. To get this look, ask your stylist to cut your hair in a graduated bob haircut which is about an inch and a half shorter in the back than the front. The cut should follow the lines of the jaw with long layers through the back and mid layers in the crown area. This gives the bob a lot of movement which looks modern and edgy. To style this kind of bob hairstyle, you can either flat iron your hair, or use small rollers to create waves at the sides. This hairstyle is extremely easy to maintain and do not need much hair care. When you are styling this hairstyle remember to always start blow drying from the back so that the volume of the hair is maximized and the style is maintained. If your hair is prone to frizz, then you should use hair care products like an anti-frizz serum to maintain the sleek look that is so essential to the hairstyle. When your hair is growing out, it may not look very appealing and therefore, it is important to go for regular trims so that the hairstyle does not look out of sorts. This style may be the perfect hairstyle for you if you are looking for adorable look that will ensure that you are the cynosure of any party you walk into.

Pastors can leave their church and it can be a confusing thing for people. Why do pastors leave? In this post, I try to uncover this nuanced and complex situation.
I don't always experience the gospel. I know the gospel is the most important news in the world but it's not always real for me. This post serves to encourage those who feel the same way.
If someone who grew up in your church experienced Same-Sex Attraction, how would they synthesize the Christian faith with their experiences? If a gay couple attended your church, what would be their conclusion of the gospel and their lifestyle? In this post, I suggest a few unhelpful ways Bible-believing churches talk about homosexuality with a few other considerations.
Should a certain type of preaching motivate me to leave a church? How do I become a better sermon listener? What do I do if I'm dating someone with a controlling mom? How come my surrender to Jesus doesn't lead to freedom from depression and loneliness?
The Asian American church has experienced changes in the last few decades. But what are the future changes to come? In this post, I detail five predictions I believe await the near distant horizon of the Asian American church.

"Tranquillity Zone"
on the
Life of the Soul
Man - the true man - is soul, not body; though physically man belongs to the animal kingdom, yet his soul lifts him above the rest of creation. The soul it is which makes the human creature a celestial entity
A body doth not develop and grow without the soul; therefore the soul is the medium of the spiritual life.
Know verily, that the soul is a sign of God, a heavenly gem whose reality the most learned of men hath failed to grasp, and whose mystery no mind, however acute, can ever hope to unravel.
Verily, I say, the human soul is, in its essence, one of the signs of God, a mystery among His mysteries. It is one of the mighty signs of the Almighty Within it lieth concealed that which the world is now utterly incapable of apprehending.
Know thou of a truth that the soul, after its separation from the body, will continue to progress until it attaineth the presence of God
To consider that after the death of the body the spirit perishes is like imagining that a bird in a cage will be destroyed if the cage is broken, though the bird has nothing to fear from the destruction of the cage. Our body is like the cage, and the spirit is like the bird. We see that without the cage the bird flies therefore, if the cage becomes broken, the bird will continue to exist In truth, from hell it reaches a paradise of delights because for the thankful birds there is no paradise greater than freedom from the cage.
Reflections on Peace
There can be no doubt whatever that the peoples of the world, of whatever race or religion, derive their inspiration from one heavenly Source, and are the subjects of one God.
It is not for him to pride himself who loveth his own country, but rather for him that loveth the whole world. The earth is but one country and mankind its citizens.
Consort with all religions with amity and concord, that they may inhale from you the sweet fragrance of God.
For blind imitation of the past will stunt the mind. But once every soul inquireth into truth, society will be freed from the darkness of continually repeating the past.
Take pride not in love for yourselves but in love for your fellow creatures. Glory not in love for your country, but in love for all mankind.
Because man has stopped his ears to the Voice of Truth and shut his eyes to the Sacred Light, neglecting the Law of God, for this reason has the darkness of war and tumult, unrest and misery, desolated the earth.
In the estimation of God all men are equal. There is no distinction or preference for any soul, in the realm of His justice and equity
In the estimate of God, there are no English, French, Germans, Turkish or Persians. All these in the presence of God are equal; they are of one race and one creation; God did not make these divisions. These distinctions have had their origin in man himself We are of one physical race.
Reflections on True Life
True life is not the life of the flesh but the life of the spirit.
No matter how much man may acquire material virtues, he will not be able to realise and express the highest possibilities of life without spiritual graces.
Man is in reality a spiritual being and only when he lives in the spirit is he truly happy.
True bounty is that of heaven, spiritual, which gives life eternal. Follow this and thy heart will become as beautiful as a garden, thine eyes bright, thy spirit happy and thy thought a comfort to souls.
We must look higher than all earthly thoughts; detach ourselves from every material idea, crave for the things of the spirit.
Human happiness is founded upon spiritual behaviour.
The body without spirit is not capable of real accomplishment. Although it may be in the utmost condition of beauty and excellence, it is, nevertheless, in need of the spirit.
All the sorrow and grief that exist come from the world of matter - the spiritual world bestows only the joy!
No matter how far the material world advances, it cannot establish the happiness of mankind. Only when material and spiritual civilisation are linked and co-ordinated will happiness be assured.
Reflections on
Coping with Stress
O God! Refresh and gladden my spirit. Purify my heart. Illumine my powers. I lay all my affairs in Thy hand. Thou art my Guide and my Refuge. I will no longer be sorrowful and grieved, I will be a happy and joyful being. O God! I will no longer be full of anxiety, nor will I let trouble harass me. I will not dwell on the unpleasant things of life. O God! Thou art more friend to me than I am to myself. I dedicate myself to Thee, O God.
Joy gives us wings! In times of joy our strength is more vital, our intellect keener. But when sadness visits us, our strength leaves us.
Remember not thine own limitations; the help of God will come to you. Forget yourself. God's help will surely come!
Should prosperity befall thee, rejoice not, and should abasement come upon thee, grieve not, for both shall pass away and be no more.
I am the Sun of Wisdom and the Ocean of Knowledge. I cheer the faint and revive the dead. I am the guiding Light that illumineth the way. I am the Royal Falcon on the Arm of the Almighty. I unfold the drooping wings of every broken bird and start it on its flight.

MSN and The Power of Segmentation
If you were to design the very best advertising network (one where you could select the users as opposed to the other way around) you very well may select the new MSN Ad Center. What will make their network (its currently private) attractive to search advertisers is the power it provides to segment campaigns by demographics, geographics and, yes, time of day as well. That means if you're interested in selling a WAHM (work at home) opportunity to stay at home parents aged 18-35 in the city of Portland - you can do it. Sell hearing aids to senior citizens in Palm Beach - you can do it. While Google does allow geographic targeting, they do not provide the degree of segmentation that is coming shortly from the MSN Ad Center. Yahoo and Google are certainly capable thanks to the immense number of users using their services (which means more user data), but whether they can catch MSN, who certainly has a leg up at this point, is anyone's guess.

CHESTER, Pa. (WPVI) -- A young girl is being praised in Chester, Delaware County for helping save her family from an early-morning house fire.
"It was like smoky and dark. We had to get out really fast," 7-year-old Serenity Felker said.
The early morning fire was so intense, it woke Serenity out of bed.
"We were all sleeping and my daughter woke up and said, 'Daddy, Mommy there's smoke all in the house,' dad Dan Felker said.
Mom Chelsie broke a side window open then got all three kids, ages two to seven, on the fire escape then firefighters rushed to help.
Medics took the family of five to Ccrozer Chester Medical Center.
The blaze broke out around 12:30 a.m. Wednesday in the home converted into apartments at 3rd and Yarnall streets.
Firefighters estimate there are at least a dozen occupants in the six apartments.
The blaze quickly moved to two alarms with the bulk of the flames coming from the second and third floors.
Fire officials believe the cause is accidental and the fire began in a second floor kitchen.
"I heard 'the apartments on fire, get out.' I came to the bathroom window, seen the apartment next door fully engulfed," fire victim Daniel Harold said.
"The firefighters came on time, they pulled the kids out. It was a blessing that they were right here, right on time. We thank God the kids have their lives, including mine," fire victim Kareemah Turner said.
The Felkers were the last to get out and they did just in time.
"By the grace of God, everyone was OK," Chelsie said. "I feel relieved that not only my family is OK, but the family on the second floor is OK."
Neighbors say recent car fires made them suspicious, but fire officials say this was an accident.
The Red Cross is helping four families with housing, food, and clothes.
7-year-old praised for helping save family from Chester fire

AIA Credit Course: RadiusTK106
Design and Constructability of Curved and Complex Surfaces with CFS - 1LU
Curved surfaces are dominant in nature; in fact linear geometry rarely occurs. This abstract inspiration continues to advance building design and challenge cost-effective, constructible solutions. A deeper knowledge of complex geometries provides the basis for understanding the development of constructible solutions for complex and curved surfaces. High profile case studies highlight the type of critical project elements and unique design challenges that require structural framing design expertise. This course also demonstrates the value of collaborative BIM and 3D models to leverage the cost-effective use of cold-formed steel for curved and complex framing solutions.
Learning Objective 1: Gain a deeper understanding of the geometry behind the development of Curved and Complex Surfaces.
Learning Objective 2: Identify the critical project elements necessary to maintain the design intent of projects with Curved and Complex Surfaces.
Learning Objective 3: Anticipate the unique design challenges and plan for the collaboration required to develop constructible solutions for Complex and Curved Surfaces.
Learning Objective 4: Understand the role and capability of BIM and 3D models combined with cold-formed steel in resolving unique structural design challenges.

Barr takes top gong at 2016 Irish Life Health National Athletics Awards
Thomas Barr crowned Athlete of the Year at the 2016 Irish Life Health National Athletics Awards
Thomas Barr (Ferrybank) was named as the Athlete of the Year at the Irish Life Health National Athletics Awards which took place on Wednesday 30th of November in the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Santry.
Barr grabbed the country's attention with his sparkling performances at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro which culminated in an agonising, but magnificent, fourth place finish in the 400m Hurdles in a world class time of 47.97 seconds.
Barr came out on top ahead of Robert Heffernan (Togher) for the top gong who won the Endurance Athlete of the Year award with his excellent 6th in the 50km Race Walk at the Olympics. Athletics Ireland were also delighted to acknowledge the retrospective rewarding of his Olympic bronze medal from London 2012 and Olive Loughnane's world gold medal from Berlin 2009.
Marcus O'Sullivan was inducted into the Hall of Fame for 2016. His long list of achievements includes: three gold medals at the World Indoor Championships over 1500m in 1987 (Indianapolis), 1989 (Budapest) and 1993 (Toronto); third all-time with total sub-4 minute miles, at 101; 1500m silver at the 1985 European Athletics Indoor Championships; qualified for four Olympic Games in 1984, 1988, 1992, and 1996, at both 800 metres and 1500 metres. He reached the 1500 metre final at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.
He set an indoor 1500 metres world record of 3:35.4 on 10 February 1989, and won the prestigious Wanamaker Mile at the Millrose Games six times (1986, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1992, and 1996).
His personal best for the mile, which was set indoors in 1988, is 3:50.94. His personal best for the 1500 metres, which was set outdoors in 1996, is 3:33.61.
O'Sullivan, along with Ray Flynn, Eamonn Coghlan, and Frank O'Mara established the still standing world record in the 4 x 1 mile relay, when they combined in Dublin on August 17, 1985 to run 15:49.08.
He is currently the head coach of Villanova and recently coached his 16th national champion Patrick Tiernan to the NCAA Cross Country title.
While the National Athletics Awards is a celebration of the many successes of our international and national it also commemorates the association's exceptional volunteer base. Liam Hennessy was named as the Lifetime Achievement Award recipient – the pinnacle volunteer award. Michael O'Hart won the Outstanding Official of the Year.
It was an historic year in Irish athletics with Georgina Drumm becoming the first female President – also the first in Europe.
President Drumm recalled a great year including Phil Healy's (Bandon) magnificent 'from the depths of hell' relay performance that went viral all around the world. Today also marks the 60th anniversary to the day of Ronnie Delany's Olympic 1500m gold medal winning performance.
"Our talented and dedicated athletes gave us great performances and an athletics year to remember. The list is long including Ciara Mageean, Thomas Barr, Robert Heffernan, Fionnuala Mc Cormack, Mark English and of course Phil Healy's inspirational performance at the University Championships.
"The National Awards gives Athletics Ireland the opportunity to formally acknowledge our coaches officials and clubs for their enormous contribution to the success of our sport.
"We wish all our athletes success at the forthcoming European Cross Country Championships.
"With a long list of Major International Events planned for 2017 we look forward to another great year of Athletics."

Battery connected fence is live. How do I know it is on…Stuff the instructions grab hold to confirm that it will jolt. CONFIRMED…Later referred to instructions and yes there is an indicator LED highly visible of a night time that shows the fence is pulsing. The Dorgi watches me connect the battery and once again thinks something is suss. He chooses to give it a wide berth. I take a load of washing under the house and open the machine….YELP BARK YELP… I reach down to pick up some clothes and there is a Dorgi wrapped around my feet. (I have no idea what that was but I don't like it). First load of washing done, coax the Dorgi outside to throw the ball for a while all is going well until someone gets excited and backs into the fence… YELP BARK YELP JUMP… lands at my feet and refuses to play ball anymore. A couple of hours later I am swimming in the pool making a racket, 15 minutes later YELP BARK YELP… I notice a flash of Dorgi running up the back stairs onto the verandah and sitting int he corner….I start thinking this fence is great he must have the idea by now…..Well the Witch returns home form a trip in the Country with Jan and is glad she hasn't had to see the Dorgi get zapped so what does she do stands near the fence and coaxs him into it, funnily enough DORGI GOES YELP BARK JUMP YELP SPRINT away from it. The fence has been live for one week and I don't think they have contacted each other since…..
December 7, 2008
No sorry I can't sell tickets to this.
Solution to trouble
How to fix the jumping Dorgi that is going to cost me thousands in shoulder reconstructions. I know lets add electricity into the equation….The Pig purchases an electric fence and 200 metres of suitably infused zapping cable to go with it. The Pig brings it home and puts the fence in place. The Dorgi is stuck on the chain thinking this doesn't look too good, 'I ain't seen it before but I am not sure if I like it.' The Dorgi remains chained as I now need a battery. I acquire a battery and recondition it to hold a bit of a charge…..3 days later it is time to go live and let the Dorgi off the chain.
I am all better and am going to continue in my efforts to escape and raid the food of all the other pets in the near vicinity. Yes I know you put in a gate. Yes I know you then went and perspexed it so I couldn't shimmy through or climb it. Yes I know you closed off your second set of stairs because I found a way out there. Yes I know that is a 4 metre high retaining wall and I ma about a foot high but if I shimmy the first foot before jumping it won't hurt and I can get to all the food on offer, then sleep at the front door until you wake up and you Will let me in….
Who spent a few days at the vets.
The Dorgi got extrmely sick. His temperature was nearly 2 degrees above where it is meant to be. He was unresponsive and generally over heating. He was in pain to touch or move. So off to the vets and a pile of antibiotics and other things. Days later he starts to respond and improve….Diagnosis (no idea) possibly a meningococal style of infection but not to sure. He seemed to respond to the super strength anti biotics and has no side affects. Don't complain pay the money take him home for him to cause more trouble.
Why have we been so quiet.
Well we had a storm or two that decided to take out 3 Brisbane suburbs. The level of damage was comparable to that of category 5 cyclones that have hit suburbia. The Pig was a little tied up in the response and managed to put in 118 hours over 8 days all within the incident command structure. When I did sleep, I would wake and picture command boards and jobs as well as phones ringing etc….Glad that the majority of that is now past. I don't mind putting in the time and enjoy it in a way but I also did my normal job on top of that so averaged around 4 hours sleep a day, not a great example of fatigue management but desperate times call for exceptional measures.
Going to mow the lawn at home tomorrow and deal with a few yard issues that are a few weeks old, should just get on top of it before heading OS to Japan for a few weeks.
It is still running
Well the Mu is still running, not surprising but not exactly an ideal automobile either. We are still and will always be dirty about the cost of getting it to this stage and the fact that we will never get a roadworthy if we wanted to sell it but hopefully it will go on for a few years yet.
October 20, 2008
Not a rumour!
Well, it's no longer a rumour…truth be known, one of the neighbour's kids had a belly button pierced….have yet to see it, but heard all about it!
Useless piece of….^$&#%$
Well, it's been a while since I updated the Mu thread….probably because I would much rather forget it! The leaking oil turned out to be more than first thought. My mechanic has recommended I not bother fixing the latest and just run it to the ground…or sell it unregistered on ebay!
Decided to drive it as is and then wait for a trade in deal on a newer/better car! Sigh….I guess I found out what was mysterious about this utility!
Cake Toppers
Well, the custom made cake toppers have arrived!! YAH! Actually, they came last Friday, but of course we miss the delivery and don't make the post office in time. Being the suburbs, they are not open on the weekend so its up early Monday morning to grab them before work!
Before leaving, I get a knock on the door and another parcel has arrived!! Woohoo! Got the little "tux" and "wedding dress" gift bags! They are pretty good for the price.
Picked up the cake toppers. I don't think "Mack" looks quite right, The "pig" looks a little different and I have a scowl on my face. Other than that, you can tell it's meant to be us, and should be interesting for the wedding!
Not sure what the Pig has planned for favours for the wedding…apparently something evil…must work that one out….

One more off the list
Photographer has been booked. Yippppppeeeeee
She knows about the website so this is where we say nice things about the funky lady 🙂
In all seriousness having that one crossed off the list is such a relief and there are far less things on the list then a month ago. If we can keep on top of the game and get these things sorted out earlier, we might get some free time in the future. Our custom made Cake Topper should arrive within the next fortnight as well.
Feel free to comment on what we should give the guests, I have sinister plans and the Witch has girly, pretty smelling plans.
The Pig.

Liam McCool is caught between a rock and a hard man. When we first meet him in Dennis O'Flaherty's rollicking King of the Cracksmen, he is helping a pair of Molly Magees to blow up the a hated company man's house. After the house goes sky high, he returns to his boarding house to discover that his sweetheart has been murdered. To top it all off, his boss back in New York wants him to report back on the double now that his job spying on the Mollies is over. All McCool wants to do is get revenge for his sweetheart, but everyone else is pushing him towards a big role in the Great Game.
There isn't much room to catch your metaphorical breath in King of the Cracksmen. The plot steams ahead like one of the Acme robotic police that are patrolling O'Flaherty's alternate United States. In McCool's world, John Wilkes Booth's assassination attempt failed and Andrew Jackson sold the Louisiana Purchase to the Russians to balance the budget. O'Flaherty takes you from the coal fields of Pennsylvania to New York to Washington, D.C., to New Petersburg (formerly Minneapolis) and back to New York for an exciting showdown.
Along the way, as McCool is set to tracking down revolutionaries, demented heads of Public Safety, overly ambitious policemen, and New York gangsters, he starts to fall in love with crusading reporter Becky Fox—who turns out to be an agent of an organization that is determined to return the United States back into the nation it was before the Department of Public Safety. Meanwhile, O'Flaherty shows us the marvels of a steampunk alternate Gilded Age. There's almost too much in this novel and no time for deep introspection. But then, King of the Cracksmen is billed as "A Steampunk Entertainment."
I received a free copy of this ebook from Edelweiss, in exchange for an honest review. It will be released 6 January 2015.

JAMMU AND KASHMIR: At least two terrorists stormed the family quarters at Sunjwan Army camp in Jammu and Kashmir early this morning and fired indiscriminately injuring four, including an officer, his daughter and a civilian, police said. The firing has stopped and the area has been cordoned off. A joint operation by the Army and police is underway. Schools within 500 metres of the camp have been asked to stay closed by the district administration.
Home Minister Rajnath Singh has spoken to top officers and directed ministry officials to keep a close watch.
"Around 4.55 am, suspicious movement was noticed, and the sentri bunker was fired upon and they retaliated. The terrorists have been cornered in one of the quarters. The operation is on," Jammu Inspector General of Police SD Singh Jamwal said.
It is believed to be a fidayeen attack by Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorists, the first such attack in Jammu this year, police said. The military station, spread over many acres, lies in the heart of Jammu along the Jammu-Pathankot highway. It has residential quarters as well as schools inside. The terrorists used the rear side to enter the camp.
"It's not clear how many terrorists entered the camp and how did they manage to do that," a senior police officer said.
There are many residential pockets around the camp and the forces don't want any collateral damage in the operation. Heavy security has been deployed at all entry and exit points. There were intelligence inputs about possible attacks in the state, and security forces were alert, but there was no specific information that they would strike this station in Jammu. As Jammu is close to the International Border, it becomes easier for terrorists to escape, police said.
"Our priority is to flush out the terrorists as soon as possible," police said.
Suicide attackers had targeted the same army station in 2003. Twelve soldiers had lost their lives and seven others were injured.


text: Here I was, halfway around the world on Okinawa and there on Sunset Beach was a wedding photo shoot, much like the ones I follow in the blogs of hot wedding photographers, such as Jasmine Star, Jessica Claire, or Becker. From what I've been told, in Japan it is common for there to be two wedding ceremonies, a traditional Shinto ceremony and a Western one. Obviously, as here in the US, it is important to schedule a shoot with a photographer to record the event for posterity. It was fun to watch from afar, and of course I couldn't resist snapping a few myself of the photographer at work.

Napoleon LEX 485 Gas Grill Review
Napoleon LEX 485 Gas Grill$999
Construction Quality8.5/10
Temperature Control9.0/10
- Quality construction
- Heavy stainless steel rod cooking grates
- Wide range of optional extras
- High heat output
- Double walled construction
- Comes with rotisserie burner, but rotisserie kit sold separately
- Heat tends to not be as even as it should be
- Comparatively expensive
Full Review - Napoleon LEX 485 Gas Grill
Napoleon is Canada's premier maker of gas grills. Making grills ranging from around $900USD to over $3,000USD they have an impressive range of products.
The LEX gas grills from Napoleon is their Chinese made "discount" line offering Napoleon engineering at a more reasonable price. This 3-burner grill is large and powerful and offers an infrared side burner and rear mounted infrared rotisserie burner (but the rotisserie kit is extra). This is a good grill, comparable in every way to some of the best gas grills under $1,000.
Comparable in every way except one, price. That is really the issue with Napoleon. This is a great gas grill for the price, but there are a number of similarly capable units on the market that prevent this from standing out from the crowd.
The LEX 485RB is made in China by Napoleon and while it incorporates the best of Napoleon engineering it has been cut down to reduce shipping weight. The burners are thick, 304 stainless steel, and the cooking grates are heavy stainless steel rod. It isn't in the cooking system that shortcuts have been taken, it is the cabinetry and the thickness of the body (though it does have double walled cooking chamber). The doors are lightweight and tend to move around a little so they don't always line up. The firebox is well insulated and makes the most of the 99 BTUs per square inch though, the heating can be a little uneven and you might be a little more prone to flare-ups.
So why buy this grill? Well, it is a good grill for the price and yes, Napoleon's competitors are also making cutbacks in materials and quality. The one trick with this is that Napoleon doesn't have the best distribution, particularly in the U.S. If there is a dealer in your area you can go in and kick the casters, otherwise you are forced to do your shopping online. Remember that online sales do not have the same support that dealer sales do, so don't expect Napoleon to jump through hoops to help you out with a problem you have with a grill you buy online.
Don't think that I am being overly critical with this grill. It really is very good. The heat output is excellent, as is the quality of the components. It is a little overloaded with extras though. The infrared side burner has always been something of a mystery to mean. While capable of putting an intense sear on a steak, it can really only do one at a time. Add to this the fact that it is outside the cooking chamber and it really is a rather strange feature.

Trudeau Stories (Victoria Playhouse, P.E.I)
When I first saw the show advertised in the Victoria Playhouse brochure, I instantly wanted to see the piece, though I was trying to comprehend how one woman could deliver an entire show based solely on her friendship with Prime Minister Trudeau. I know that women can do anything, and in order for this piece to be captivating Johnston had to be amazing throughout the entire show, and she did just that.
At Showtime, Brook Johnston walked on stage in jeans and a basic top. She didn't need to be in a ballgown or stage uniform because being herself was already so appealing. She began with the story of a young woman and a man at a party–her young self and Pierre Trudeau. Brook did a beautiful job telling us about the romantic friendship she shared with Trudeau which began when she was an acting student and met Trudeau at a party. She had the audience laughing when she told us that she stuffed her shoes with toilet paper because they didn't fit. Their story began with a dance.
After the party, Trudeau and Johnson carried forth a beautiful friendship that spanned many years. I really feel that the audience was with her one-hundred percent throughout the show as she led us through her journey. With limited set pieces consisting of a chair and a basket, Brook successfully told and illustrated her story. There was no need for a lavish set and outfits because she was the set, the props, and the actor combined. It was raw and beautiful and Brook's honesty, intelligence, wit, emotions and movements were all that were needed. I think what made the show so beautiful was the simple fact that we had a Prime Minister who loved people and the Arts. Brook spoke about a conversation she had with Trudeau where she questioned her choice of being an actor and if it was "enough" as a career. Trudeau believed in her and knew that it was more than enough. He appreciated that she was different and an artist, and he supported her in her endeavors. I think Trudeau knew that being an artist is not a choice but a calling; it's in your soul. He appreciated what artists work for and offer to individuals, communities, and the world as a whole. I don't think Brook was a women of wealth, and artists generally are not. Having a man of power and leadership take interest in someone for that reason and share his time with a student actor (not someone of status) was enough for me to fall in love with the show right from the dance at the beginning until we heard the funeral music indicating Trudeau's passing. Brook continued to be one-hundred percent committed right to the end.
I think she did that show not only for Trudeau, but for everyone. She was rejoicing in their special friendship by sharing their story with us. I think some higher power brought Trudeau and Brook together, because art and what is often considered "different" is special and brings change to the world. Brook had you loving Trudeau, our country and the Arts deep in your heart for seventy-five minutes, and into the next day. I am still holding the story dear to my heart.
Thank you, Brook, for creating your own work and living your art. You are making a difference and you are an inspiration for all actors, especially women.

ANA reports that Tshwane Mayor Solly Msimanga and a contingent of senior Tshwane emergency services officials on Wednesday ordered the immediate evacuation of the Department of Correctional Services' head office Poyntons Building for "serious breaches" of fire and emergency evacuation regulations.
Msimanga said at the high-rise building in Pretoria's CBD: "Following what we picked [up] last week in Johannesburg (where three firefighters died due to a government building catching fire), we felt that it is important for us to start our own inspections of buildings, especially those that we have previously warned. When we walked in here, we have seen things that are shocking." He went on to say: "Where they are storing files, you have lights that are sparking. That's where you have a whole lot of papers that are in the building. The escape routes are locked shut, which means people have to go through smoke or through fire because the escape doors are shut. These are some of the things we have communicated to the company [running the building] here in 2016." He pointed out that 1,600 people used the building, which also accommodates members of the SA National Defence Force. As Msimanga walked away, several officers in correctional services crowded around him, thanking him for the intervention. The Police and Prisons Civil Rights Union (Popcru) was equally elated.

Thesis Research Paper MLA Checklist by liaoqinmei
Writing a thesis on any topic can be difficult. Extensive research, critical thinking, analysis and writing are just few of the skills that you must have when writing one. Writing a thesis is entirely different from essay writing. A thesis goes beyond the basic essay format of introduction, body and conclusion. Though the research paper introduction and the research paper conclusion remains, the discussion on the key points of your academic paper is made in a more extensive manner. One of the important parts of a research paper that is not found in an essay is a research methodology thesis paper. Research methodology is the part where you include the details of your research techniques.
Many writers find it difficult to write thesis statement even after the topic of the research paper has been defined. We can give you a small piece of advice: before writing a thesis statement, make a short outline of the points that will be included in the research paper. Once they are outlined, it will be easier for the writer to see the main idea of the paper and to compose a superb thesis statement.
How to Find the Best Research Paper Topics
1. A research paper topic can be selected if it is something that you already have experience discussing about. This equates to ease in researching because you already have stock information about it therefore making it easier to conduct experiments.
2. The is to initiate the process of writing. So when you are about to select a topic, make sure that your subject is something that is important and significant to let you get the most out of your researching.
3. Research paper topics must also be feasible when it comes to research process managing. Feasibility means you can actually execute experiments and confirm your notions through experimental designs.
4. One more thing to consider in selecting a research paper topic is the availability of resources. It is important to cite as many reference materials as you can so that you can gain credibility over your results in the research paper.
