WASHINGTON (Legal Newsline) -- The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to review a challenge to President Barack Obama's health care law by a private, Christian university.
Liberty University, located in Lynchburg, Va., sued over the health care law in 2010.
The university argues that the law's employer coverage provisions are unconstitutional, and its individual and employer mandates violate its freedom of religion.
The nation's high court declined to hear arguments in the case, Liberty University, et al. v. Lew, et al., according to an order list Monday.
Liberty filed its petition for a writ of certiorari with the court in September.
The court did not provide any comment, leaving intact a ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissing the university's lawsuit.
However, the court agreed last week to hear arguments from two companies that say they should be able to claim religious exemptions from the health care law's contraceptive mandate.
The court granted petitions for writs of certiorari in Sebelius v. Hobby Lobby Stores Inc. and Conestoga Wood Specialties v. Sebelius, according to an order list Tuesday.

Marco Silva's Watford side, along with Burnley, have been the surprise package of this year's Premier League campaign so far. The Hornets are currently in 8th place, with 21 points from their opening 13 games, and just four points away from Champions League positions.
Tuesday night sees Manchester United travel to Vicarage Road, in an encounter that is effectively a must win for the visitors, given that they are already eight points, and a significant goal difference behind runaway leaders, and neighbours Manchester City.
Both sides come into the game on the back of a successful weekend. Watford were great value for a tremendously impressive 3-0 away win at Newcastle United, with the visitors deservedly taking three points away from St James' Park, with goals from Will Hughes, Andre Gray, and an own goal from Newcastle defender DeAndre Yedlin.
Following a disappointing result in Switzerland away to Basel in the Champions League last Wednesday, Jose Mourinho's United crept to a 1-0 victory against Brighton & Hove Albion at Old Trafford on Saturday, courtesy of a deflected Ashley Young strike on 66 minutes, which has since been credited as a Lewis Dunk own goal. The United boss was quick to praise the Premier League newcomers, referencing that the Seagulls deserved more out of the game than what they ultimately took away.
Whilst United will have to be better against a confident and in-form Watford side on Tuesday night, the Hornets have only beaten their visitors once in the Premier League, amongst eight meetings.
This victory came as recently as September 2016, as the then Watford boss Walter Mazzarri, saw his side defeat Mourinho's men 3-1 at Vicarage Road, with two goals in the remaining ten minutes of the contest from defender Camilo Zuniga, and striker Troy Deeney proving the difference.
Manchester United have prevailed within every single other of the seven Premier League encounters between the sides, as well as cruising to a 4-1 victory in an FA Cup Semi Final meeting in 2007, in a game played at Villa Park. The same year, the Red Devils put Watford to the sword once more, with a 4-0 victory at Old Trafford, on their way to secure the Premier League title.
Marco Silva will have the option of reintroducing club captain Troy Deeney for the game, after the Watford talisman completed a three-match suspension, following an incident with Stoke City's Joe Allen. They will however, be without defenders Craig Cathcart and Younes Kaboul, who are suffering with knee and hamstring issues respectively, but despite a recent knock, Uruguayan defender Miguel Britos will be in contention for the game.
United will be without defender Phil Jones, who picked up an injury on International duty. Whilst Eric Bailly is yet to be determined fit, Victor Lindelof looks set to remain in the side, on the back of an impressive display at the weekend.
Watford will enter the game full of confidence, and why shouldn't they? Marco Silva's stock is continuing to rise, given his sides exploits this season, and his team will go into the game knowing they can compete with anyone on their day.
United are approaching a stage, where any slip ups could realistically rule them out of the title race. Already trailing Manchester City by a significant number of points, and with the latter looking irrepressible, they simply cannot afford to drop points in this game.
Score Prediction – Watford 1 vs Manchester United 2

Everyone's heard the adage: the customer is always right. While that may not always be the case, they're still the customer and there's no denying that their desires and expectations play a significant role in the success of any business. This is especially true in eCommerce where convenience is king and shoppers simply gravitate to brands that cater to what they want. Free shipping and returns are an important requirements for many online shoppers, and it makes sense – why would you want to pay extra for something to be delivered, or shell out money to send an unwanted item back?
While this is cut and dry from the consumer's perspective, dealing with the costs that come with offering free shipping and returns is a common challenge among online retailers. To address how brands can overcome these difficulties, Newgistics' CEO, Todd Everett, recently spoke with Internet Retailer to outline how top retailers can audit their returns processes to keep costs in check while still meeting customer expectations, especially during peak seasons like the holidays.
For example, prior to partnering with Newgistics, fashion retailer Tobi was unable to manage the cost of providing free shipping and returns for customers. This is a challenge that many retailers face, and one that only becomes more unmanageable during the peak holiday season.
Peak Season Preparedness: Newgistics helps retailers – like Tobi – adapt to changing customer expectations in every aspect of retail, from device to doorstep.
To avoid such troubles, Tobi worked with Newgistics to redesign its returns procedures, and deployed our patent-protected SmartLabel technology to help drive efficiency into the returns process. As a result, Tobi reduced the overall costs of returns by 10 percent, while decreasing returns-specific inbound inquiries by 15 percent. In addition, the brand improved its inventory management and was able to more effectively prepare returned goods for resale.
For twenty years, Newgistics has helped retailers – like Tobi – adapt to changing customer expectations in every aspect of retail, from device to doorstep. And we specifically developed our new SmartLabel+ technology to help retailers better manage their shipments, keep costs in check and satisfy customers in the process. Every touchpoint during the customer lifecycle is important, and we're here to help top retailers and brands optimize their procedures to turn customers into brand loyalists.

Store your keepsakes in style - the Lund Luxe Collection
Inject style and personality into wherever you call home or work.
The Lund Luxe storage collection from new homeware brand Lund London adds class to any space, whilst also taking care of the things that mean the most to you. Whether it's a favourite piece of jewellery, a precious watch, pen or anything else with sentimental value, the Lund Luxe collection enables you to store your treasures safely and stylishly.
Our small but intrepid team of creative designers, located from a home studio south of London, have over 35 years combined experience in the design and homeware industry. Our core inspiration was the opportunity to break away from the high street's predictable cycle of limited colour choices and unimaginative designs.
The Lund Luxe collection finally offers customers what they want; new and exciting products, built to an extremely high quality with fresh, unique colours.
This curated collection offers four beautiful pieces in three exquisite colours.
What have we achieved so far?
Having launched in February 2016, and with just 3 full-time employees, we have been amazed with how well our products have been received.
In our first 10 months, using our expertise in the homeware industry, we have achieved some incredible things:
- Our products are now being sold in 22 countries worldwide
- We now work with 170 retailers
- Lund London products are being sold at some of the most prestigious stores, high-end fashion shops and sought-after retailers in the world:
We have been truly blown away with how well our products have been received and how much we have achieved, and we've learnt a lot from our first 10 months trading.
With no external investment or debt, we have been able to make the biggest impact that the homeware industry has seen for years, by putting our unique, contemporary twists on high street products.
Now we need your help to take our business to the next step.
The Lund Luxe Collection
The Lund Luxe collection is an evolution and reimagination of one of our first concepts; the 'Chocolate Box' collection. We have been amazed at the response we have received for our two sizes, with a choice of classic tones of silver, gold and rose gold.
The boxes have been featured in many articles such as British fashion and lifestyle magazine Tatler Magazine and the French fashion and homeware publication Elle Decoration, as well as being sold at some of the most stylish and high-regarded shops around the world.
Extract from Tatler Magazine's Desirable Designs page:
"Lund London's exquisite collection of home accessories will help you bring alive the nuances of your personality in the aesthetic of your home. Renowned for their unique style and exceptional quality, they enable you to create elegant accents and stunning centerpieces for every room, such as the 'Chocolate Box' collection shown here"
After the release of our first 2 boxes in June, we spoke to our high-end fashion and homeware partners.
Those discussions inspired our designers to reimagine the Chocolate Box, and the Lund Luxe collection was born.
The Lund Luxe collection has the same high quality and shimmering high-gloss finish as the 'Chocolate Box' range, with some exciting new features:
- Unique, contemporary new colours
- Four exciting new sizes
- Compartments and jewellery inserts
- Brand new jet black high quality cotton lining
- Change of logo to allow a high gloss, perfectly flat lid
- Specialised tooling to add beautifully curved corners
- High quality hinged lids
The range comes in three high-shine, metallic colours
- Oil Slick
- Rose Gold
- Gunmetal
The Oil Slick Range
Here at Lund London, we have come up with our most creative and unique range to date – the Lund Luxe Oil Slick Range. The high gloss oil slick finish brings a unique and stylish twist on classic jewellery and storage boxes.
Our innovative dual-plating production process ensures that every piece is unique – each is initially electroplated to produce a brilliant chrome mirrored finish, and then vacuum plated to incorporate a gradient colour effect, using our mix of petroleum colours. Walk past one way and the box shimmers purple, but look back a moment later and see a swirl of orange and yellows.
Each piece is truly one of a kind.
The Rose Gold Range
Taking inspiration from our best-selling colour of the 'Chocolate Box' range, we are introducing rose gold options to the Lund Luxe collection. A classic colour and the height of fashion, any rose gold piece brings a beautifully seductive feel to both the outside and the inside, taking care of your most prized possessions while simultaneously acting as an illuminating accent to any room.
The Gunmetal Range
Our second brand new colour is Gunmetal - a shade of deep grey with shimmering silver and blue tones. The high-gloss finish brings a level of subtle style and real class to any room.

We have designed and crafted four entirely new sizes for the Lund Luxe collection:

Production & Quality
We have partnered directly with one of the world's leading manufacturers of metalwork and homeware, which produces goods for household names such as Harrods and Pottery Barn, to ensure the highest quality production methods.
Our stamping process creates a debossed Lund London logo in the centre of the underside of each piece.
Hinged Boxes
Using expert tooling, the plates are cut perfectly square, allowing the boxes to be welded together using a full-open corner joint.
Following this, expert tooling is used to perfectly smooth the curve the edges of The Duke.
Each piece is then skilfully polished to produce an shimmering finish.

As an extra little reward, we are offering an even higher discount when you indulge in a set.

All's well that ends well at Hotchkiss Library party
SHARON — There have been darker and stormier nights for the annual book signing at the Hotchkiss Library of Sharon. The rain was relatively mild this year, and started and stopped rather than coming down in a steady unrelenting stream. But the darkness — that was a special feature of this year's event, which was held on Friday night, Aug. 2.

The movie's tagline says, "If they hear you, they hunt you." Well, luckily for us, we do not live in the world of A Quiet Place, or else we will all be hunted!
John Krasinski directs a thriller that is so fresh and smart, it might just easily become everybody's favorite horror film of the year. And yes, I am saying that even if we just entered the second quarter of 2018.
Fight for Your Life…Quietly
In A Quiet Place, we witness the fight for survival of the Abbotts. Lee and Evelyn struggles to make a life for their three kids in the post-apocalyptic world. Set in 2020, the population has been decimated by a group of mysterious aliens who have rather peculiar characteristics: hostile, armored, but blind. What the creatures lacked for vision is compensated by their hyper powerful hearing capabilities. They use this sense to track and kill humans and any creature that make a sound in a predator-prey fashion.
With the Abbotts among the few remaining survivors, the film took this opportunity to highlight the relationship among the members of the family. They were a tight one until a tragedy struck them. This incident changed the dynamics and relationship that each of them had for one another. As if the external danger was not enough, the lack of verbal communication blew up the conflict by tenfold.
Thrills That Work
The film employs the most basic trick in horror film creation: the perfect use of noise or the lack thereof. In the fictional world where it was set, people have to maintain silence at all times or else, they will be hunted. The film greatly utilized these elements to create such compelling and nail-biting scenarios.
The setting happened mostly in an old house in the middle of a corn farm. Even a bit of movement on the aged hinges and corners of the house can create sounds that will trigger the monsters. It was clear from the get go that the filmmakers know what they want to achieve. That goal is to create a sanctuary for the family but at the same time enclose them in a trap. This juxtaposition proves that the film is concocting something great. Aside from the perfect use of sound, the atmosphere the scenes took place in enhanced the thrill factor. Danger was lurking in every corner and that even an unsuspecting nail can make the audiences' heart pound.
The Power of Love
Without drowning the story with the sappiness of a family drama, A Quiet Place still impacted us with parental love. The Abbott parents after all are doing everything they can to secure the safety of their children. Emily Blunt delivered a striking performance as the mother of three children in this apocalyptic world. She had the right mix of vulnerability and aggressiveness. Meanwhile, Krasinski was believable as the father who was trying to maintain a strong foundation for his family. The script provided the main leads with plots that explored their characters even deeper, which in return made them appear more real to the audiences.
A Quiet Place created a mystery at the start of the film by introducing the aliens. Yet with careful placement of hints throughout the movie, it provided the audiences with necessary information that may answer their questions about the creatures in question. It is now up to them to tie it all up and solve the mystery themselves. With that said, A Quiet Place is one that does not spoonfeed its viewers with exposition and that is a great decision on their part. It is one that requires thinking but not too much that it will take away the opportunity for the audiences to get on the thrilling ride.
John Krasinski's A Quiet Place is a thriller film that does not take itself too seriously yet does not get too playful that it becomes ridiculous nor campy. It is the type of film that plays with the senses and evokes real fear. It is FRESH, SMART, and GENUINELY SCARY! I will dare say this, it is this year's Get Out!

aTRPV1: Lead candidate in pain
The pain receptor, transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), is an ion channel that has a central role in peripheral nociception and neurogenic inflammation. As the next generation of pain therapy, TRPV1 antagonists is one of the most currently investigated in the field. Pre-clinical studies with TRPV1 antagonists have shown promising analgesic effect in several pain models but due to temperature-related side effects many development programs have been discontinued. Oblique Therapeutics has developed antagonistic stimuli-selective antibodies against TRPV1 in order to maximize pain relief and circumvent side effects
aTRPA1: A promising pain target
The transient receptor ankryrin 1, TRPA1, is related to TRPV1 as it also belongs to the family of TRP ion channels. TRPA1 is involved in pain sensation, itch, inflammation and respiratory diseases. It is suggested to be involved in cold hypersensitivity and is activated by temperature, mustard oil, cinnamon and wasabi. Oblique Therapeutics is developing antagonistic antibodies towards this promising pain target.
About treatment of severe pain
Defined as an unpleasant sensory associated with the injury of tissue, the concept of pain is a broad and multifaceted spectrum of chronic and acute conditions. While instances of minor pain are successfully managed with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as Ibuprofen, severe challenges arise in the treatment of neuropathic pain (damages to the peripheral and the central nervous system) and nociceptive pain (acute pain stemming from harmful stimuli). It is estimated that more than 50 million individuals in Europe are afflicted with neuropathic pain, and, of these, 35 million suffers from severe pain.1,2 The conditions have proven difficult to treat and useful agents such as opioids have arisen as an epidemic in itself due to its addictive nature.
The market potential of replacing opioid treatments
In the U.S., the economic burden of prescription opioid misuse has been estimated to more than 78 billion USD a year by the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).3 Analysts estimate that the opioid market for the treatment of acute and chronic pain totaled to over 13.4 billion USD during 2015 in the US alone. The cost is expected to grow despite many national efforts to limit and prevent the epidemic. The market for prescription pain market is consequently expected to increase to more than 34 billion USD by year 2020. With regulatory agencies and nations eager to curb the abuse of opioids, there is a significant interest in new novel solutions for the management of severe pain.

I – My Father Bleeds History
II – And Here My Trouble Begin
by Art Spiegelman
(5/5)Fiction, Graphic Novel Winner of the 1992 Pulitzer Prize First Published in 1980-1991 in RAW magazine
Publisher: Pantheon Books Set: Nazi Poland and modern day New York, USA
Click to buy this book (free delivery)
Book Synopsis:
"The Jews are undoubtedly a race, but they are not human." – Adolf Hitler
Maus is the story of Vladek Spiegelman, a Jewish survivor of Hitler's Europe, and his son, a cartoonist who tries to come to terms with his father, his father's terrifying story, and history itself. It's form, the cartoon (Nazi's are cats, the Jews are mice), succeeds perfectly in shocking us out of our any lingering sense of familiarity with the events described, approaching, as it does, the unspeakable through the diminutive. It is, as the New York Times Book Review has commented, "a remarkable feat of documentary detail and novelistic vividness…an unfolding literary event."
Moving back and forth from Poland to Rego Park, New York, Maus tells two powerful stories: The first is Spiegelman's father's account of how he and his wife survived Hitler's Europe, a harrowing tale filled with countless brushes with death, improbable escapes, and the terror of confinement and betrayal. The second is the author's tortured relationship with his aging father as they try to lead a normal life of minor arguments and passing visits against a backdrop of history too large to pacify. At all levels, this is the ultimate survivor's tale – and that too, of the children who somehow survive even the survivors.
Part I of Maus takes Spiegelman's parents to the gates of Auschwitz and him to the edge of despair. Put aside all your preconceptions. These cats and mice are not Tom and Jerry, but something quite different. This is a new kind of literature.
Why I love Maus:
Yes, this is a graphic novel, but don't be fooled by its form. You simply cannot be snooty and turn your nose up at this particular comic strip. This cartoon is history. I have a fascination with stories about the Holocaust because I cant quite believe how it could have happened and that people can be so horrifically cruel. (I should state here that I of course believe it happened, I just can't believe it happened.)
In Maus, the Jews and Nazi's are anthropomorphized as mice and cats respectively, distancing the reader from reality making it seem more like a story, a fairy tale, than a biography. But very soon, once you become familiar with the characters, and as the story moves into darker areas, the cats and mice become powerfully human, menacing and vulnerable, dragging you headlong into the fear of the Nazi occupation.
I found Maus a simple yet sophisticated insight into the personal life story of a Holocaust survivor, and the shell-shock that remains with such survivors for the rest of their lives. You can't help but have compassion for the grumpy old man Vladek Spiegelman becomes, because you realise what hell he's been through.
There is also some humour in Maus, as you identify with the son, (and author) Art, in his dealings with his stubborn father. Also, people of other races are depicted by different animals – for example, the French are frogs, the Poles are pigs and the Americans are dogs. This may seem that Spiegelman is typecasting, but he is actually showing how ridiculous it is to classify a human being based on their ethnicity.
Maus took a total of thirteen years to complete and is studied in English literature courses as well as courses on Jewish culture. If you have older children, read it with them.
This book is accessible, intensely moving and important.

Dalyellup College collect historical treasures
Bunbury students have been exploring their families' involvement in World War I in the lead up to Remembrance Day and the 100 anniversary of Armistice.
The Dalyellup College school community has been collecting heirlooms and artefacts from staff and students, creating a display to help piece together the collective history within the region.
Humanities and social sciences teacher Karyn Parker said it was about helping students to look at the past and see where they all came from.
"We wanted to see if we could find any connections throughout the school with World War I and asked the students to bring in photos, books, momentos," she said.
Humanities and social sciences teacher Kate Barker said Year 9 students had been doing research on ANZAC's and their experiences of the war and developing biographies.
"Asha's great great grandfather took 100s of photos during the war and then when he got home meticulously pasted them into a photo album and labeled everything – so that's really interesting," she said.

4 Ways To Learn What Your Customers Aren't Telling You
One of the most pivotal contributions to a company's success is customer feedback. This critical insight gives a company first hand knowledge as to whether it's on the right track, and if not, what can be done to course correct. But often, it can be difficult to understand exactly how a customer is behaving if all you rely on is direct consumer feedback, as the loudest voices heard aren't necessarily satisfied customers, or even customers at all.

Today I had a lovely day sauntering around the streets of Bath with some friends, we went to the Handmade in Britain fair, bumbled around flea markets, haberdashery's and charity shops and ate cookies, It was just peachy.
Handmade in Britain was full of wonderful crafty designer makers, who were all so friendly, it was really interesting chatting to them about their inspirations and methods. Some of my favorites were:
Zoe Hillyard ~ Beautiful recycled silk and ceramic patchwork pieces that were truly original and encapsulated the ethos of craft and up-cycling perfectly.
Deryn Relph ~ Rainbow bright interior textiles that would uplift any room, I loved this chair:
Natalie Salisbury ~ Beautiful jewellery that embodied the intricacy of lace work, we were swooning over these rings for some time:
Emily Gliddon ~ Elegant, nostalgic jewellery with really interesting surface patterns,she also does jewellery making workshops in Bristol which I would love to do.
Helen Steel ~ Cheerful handmade textile home wears and gifts, I loved the printed tea towels and applique bird badges.
There were so many other inspiring exhibitors I definitely recommend a visit if you can tomorrow, see the Handmade In Britain Website for more information.

Heaven just got kinder and gentler with the death of Ellen R. Miller a spiritual counselor, beloved mother, grandmother, and friend who left this world a better place through her dedication and friendship.
Ellen was born in Kenton, Ohio in 1936 to the late Louis and Marjorie Reeder. She grew up in Granville, graduated from Granville High School, Denison University, and earned her Master's Degree in Alcohol and Drug Addiction Ministry from Methodist Theological School, after the age of 50. Ellen was a pioneer for women of her generation. She was a spiritual counselor, worked for Mary Evans at First Community Church, founded the childcare program at The Ohio State University Newark, was Assistant Pastor at Centenary United Methodist Church, was the first Director of the Family Program at Shepherd Hill and later directed the Spiritual Program there. She was active in Al-Anon helping families recover, served as a counselor with a focus on children of addicts, and touched so many lives with her spiritual gifts and devotion. Ellen will be missed but her impact on those she touched will remain.
Surviving are her children Louis Miller and Lisa Miller; grandchildren, Wil, Morgan, Olivia, and Lucas; sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Beth and David Price; niece and nephew, Sally Schaadt and Hugh Price; and dear, life-long friend, Lee Sheffler.
In addition to her parents, Ellen was preceded in death by her husband, William F. Miller who died in 1995.
The family will receive friends January 10, 2019 from 2-4 and 6-8 P.M. at the McPeek-Hoekstra Funeral Home, 133 S. Prospect St., Granville.
A memorial service celebrating Ellen's life will be held at 10:00 A.M. on January 11, 2019 at First Presbyterian Church, 110 W. Broadway, Granville with Rev. Janice Hilkerbaumer as celebrant. A private graveside service will be held at Maple Grove Cemetery in Granville.
Memorial contributions, for the gift of recovery, would be cherished and may be directed to Shepherd Hill, 200 Messimer Dr., Newark, OH 43055.

QUT Creative Enterprise Australia (CEA)
Run by QUT Creative Enterprise Australia (CEA), the Fashion360 accelerator program is partnering with the AFC bringing Curated to Brisbane expanding the support for local, emerging fashion designers.
Fashion360 acts as an accelerator program advancing designers who already have a concept and want an intensive training program that will drive their business position to a scaleable brand within six months while ensuring the viability of the business is sustained.
The Curated program complements the work of Fashion360 by providing a framework designed to continue support for designers in a less intensive way to assist them through the entrepreneurial journey and to ensure focus is consistent throughout their passage to growth.
It is partnerships such as this that will continue the drive to establish and grow a supportive network for fashion labels across Australia.

And for me, I think its about that time when I start giving my fresh, new pair of stockings a hole because youre hands are that frisky.
This is my solution for every winter since i discovered it.
Try the L'Occitane's Shea butter Hand Cream.
you will not believe how instantly it moisturises and keeps them that way without slipping on eveyrthing you pick up!!
Its definately an essential in my winter kit!!

A.M. Creative makes my month/
It's true. I love gathering all of these folks together. They are creative people--in some way, shape or form. And when we put it that way, aren't we all? They choose to come to theCO fairly early on the last Tuesday of each month-- to listen, to be encouraged and to be woken up.
Each month we hear about the creative process of one local person. We learn about their craft and can't help but reflect on our own. Just this morning we heard about the art of coffee from Levi Hartsfield, Roaster at Barefoots Joe. Levi spoke of his work in continuing the care for the beans that was started in their country of origin. He is an engineering student, so he embraces and truly loves the technical aspects of coffee roasting. And his passion for developing the best cup of coffee he possibly can, pairs well with that technical understanding. That drive to take something in one simple form and work hard to bring all the life, or flavor (in this case), out of it is what each of us making are doing. So, I can relate to Levi's craft. I can both celebrate what he's doing and look with fresh eyes on my own projects.
This morning we had graphic designers, videographers, pastors, restauranteurs, poets and more in our midst. Some of them had a strong affinity for coffee, but a few admitted they don't even drink it regularly. But they were drawn this morning because they wanted to hear more about what someone in their community is creating. In their own way, they soaked up all that Levi shared and now they face the rest of their day better for it --truly awoken (and not just because of the great cup of coffee they'd just enjoyed).
Lisa Garner is Director of Operations at theCO, designer/maker/owner of Garner Blue and the author of this piece.

DAVID KAARSEMAKER, MFA '14, Scrim, Solo Exhibition at Karsh-Masson Gallery
The exhibition runs from June 16-July 24th with an artist talk on June 26th
Karsh Masson Gallery, 110 Laurier Ave West, inside Ottawa City Hall
From the Karsh Masson Catalogue, essay by Carol Wainio:
Kaarsemaker explores the alienating aspects of public space, urban redevelopment, and museum discourse, a mise en abyme of representation within representation... The spaces, now tipped up, take on a theatrical quality, though, again, the living agents of social discourse are missing. Instead we may see the vacant rooms and empty chairs of a conference on contemporary art. The paintings leave us unsure as to whether we are inside this world or out, like the animals in glass cases isolated from the reflections of nature found on the ubiquitous glass panels of public buildings. These are displays which resist display, which obscure and make manifest layers of construction and mediation, reflecting back to us both the outside physical world and the inner world the viewers or audiences bring with them.

- What other names is Chlorella known by?
- What is Chlorella?
- How does Chlorella work?
- Are there safety concerns?
- Are there any interactions with medications?
- Dosing considerations for Chlorella.
Algue Verte d'Eau Douce, Bulgarian Chlorella, Bulgarian Green Algae, Chinese Chlorella, Chlorella Algae, Chlorella pyrenoidosa, Chlorella vulgaris, Chlorelle, Clorela, Freshwater Green Algae, Freshwater Seaweed, Green Alga, Green Algae, Japanese Chlorella, Seaweed, Yaeyama Chlorella.
supplements and medicine.
Most of the chlorella that is available in the U.S. is grown in Japan or Taiwan. It is processed and made into tablets and liquid extracts. These extracts contain "chlorella growth factor," which is described as a water-soluble extract of chlorella containing chemicals including amino acids, peptides, proteins, vitamins, sugars, and nucleic acids.
Be aware that chlorella products can vary significantly depending on the way "the crop" used to make them was cultivated, harvested, and processed. Investigators have found that dried preparation of chlorella can contain from 7% to 88% protein, 6% to 38% carbohydrate, and 7% to 75% fat.
As a medicine, chlorella is used for preventing cancer, reducing radiation treatment side effects, stimulating the immune system, improving response to flu vaccine, increasing white blood cell counts (especially in people with HIV infection or cancer), preventing colds, protecting the body against toxic metals such as lead and mercury, and slowing the aging process.
Chlorella is also used to increase "good" bacteria in the intestine in order to improve digestion; and to help treat ulcers, colitis, Crohn's disease, and diverticulosis.
Some people also use chlorella for the prevention of stress-related ulcers; treatment of constipation, bad breath, and hypertension; as an antioxidant; to reduce cholesterol; to increase energy; to detoxify the body; and as a source of magnesium to promote mental health, relieve premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and reduce asthma attacks. It is also used for fibromyalgia.
Chlorella is applied to the skin for treating skin ulcers, rashes caused by radiation treatment, and a sexually transmitted disease called trichomoniasis.
Insufficient Evidence to Rate Effectiveness for...
- Fibromyalgia. Some people with fibromyalgia say they feel better when they take chlorella tablets plus a liquid extract containing malic acid daily for 2 months.
- Brain tumor (gilioma). Early research suggests chlorella tablets plus chlorella liquid extract might help people with a type of brain cancer called gilioma better tolerate chemotherapy and radiation treatments, possibly by boosting the immune system. However, chlorella does not seem to slow the progression of the cancer or improve survival.
- High blood pressure. Early research suggests that taking chlorella daily for 1-2 months does not reduce blood pressure in people with high blood pressure.
- Cancer prevention.
- Colds.
- Crohn's disease.
- Ulcerative colitis.
- Ulcers.
- Constipation.
- Bad breath.
- High cholesterol.
- Other conditions.
QUESTIONSee Answer
diarrhea, nausea, gas (flatulence), green discoloration of the stools, and stomach cramping, especially in the first week of use.
Chlorella has caused serious allergic reactions, including asthma and other dangerous breathing problems.
Chlorella can cause skin to become extra sensitive to the sun. Wear sunblock outside, especially if you are light-skinned.
Special Precautions & Warnings:Pregnancy and breast-feeding: There is not enough reliable information about the safety of taking chlorella if you are pregnant or breast feeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use.
Iodine sensitivity: Chlorella can contain iodine. Therefore, chlorella might cause an allergic reaction in people sensitive to iodine.
Allergy to molds: Chlorella might cause an allergic reaction in people who are also allergic to molds.
Weak immune system (immunodeficiency): There is a concern that chlorella might cause "bad" bacteria to take over in the intestine of people who have a weak immune system. Be careful with chlorella if you have this problem.
"Autoimmune diseases" such as multiple sclerosis (MS), lupus (systemic lupus erythematosus, SLE), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), or other conditions: Chlorella might cause the immune system to become more active, and this could increase the symptoms of autoimmune diseases. If you have one of these conditions, it's best to avoid using chlorella.
Medications that decrease the immune system (Immunosuppressants)
Interaction Rating: Moderate Be cautious with this combination.
Talk with your health provider.
Chlorella might make the immune system more active. That could decrease the effectiveness of medications that are used to decrease (suppress) the immune system.
Some medications that suppress the immune system include azathioprine (Imuran), basiliximab (Simulect), cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune), daclizumab (Zenapax), muromonab-CD3 (OKT3, Orthoclone OKT3), mycophenolate (CellCept), tacrolimus (FK506, Prograf), sirolimus (Rapamune), prednisone (Deltasone, Orasone), corticosteroids (glucocorticoids), and others.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Interaction Rating: Moderate Be cautious with this combination.
Talk with your health provider.
Chlorella contains large amounts of vitamin K. Vitamin K is used by the body to help blood clot. Warfarin (Coumadin) is used to slow blood clotting. By helping the blood clot, chlorella might decrease the effectiveness of warfarin (Coumadin). Be sure to have your blood checked regularly. The dose of your warfarin (Coumadin) might need to be changed.
Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database rates effectiveness based on scientific evidence according to the following scale: Effective, Likely Effective, Possibly Effective, Possibly Ineffective, Likely Ineffective, and Insufficient Evidence to Rate (detailed description of each of the ratings).

As one of the sponsors of the Indonesia Tatler Ball 2018 last week, we spoke to Jonathan Crockett, Deputy Chairman and Head of 20th Century & Contemporary Art, Asia about the upcoming event. "The Hong Kong Day Sale was added to our calendar following the strong results achieved from our spring 2018 sales, which grossed Phillips' highest-ever total in Asia.
"The Day Sale will support the vibrant art market in Asia, where record prices continue to be achieved for exceptional artworks, as well as appeal to the growing number of younger Asian buyers that are starting to build collections. Phillips' curated approach of offering both Asian and Western artworks alongside photography and design pieces presents a refreshing, holistic experience for buyers interested in 20th and 21st century works and sets our sales apart from others."
More than that, we asked Jonathan to pick for us five works not to be missed on the upcoming November sale in Hong Kong. And here are his choices.
Yun Gee, Three Graces, Evening
Prices at auction have seen a significant increase over the last couple of years due to the rarity of Yun Gee's works appearing on the market. The most expensive work for the artist was sold recently for more than US$14 million. Could this be the next Modern Chinese artist that can match the prices of Zao Wou-Ki, Sanyu, and Wu Guanzhong? Is this the newest darling for auction aficionados and art connoisseurs?
Arin D. Sunaryo, Day Sale **SEA Collection
If you recognise it, then you will know that this is the Phillips photo wall from the Indonesia Tatler Ball 2018 by our very own Indonesian artist, Arin Dwihartanto Sunaryo, which pushes boundaries with its innovative techniques. Following the exceptional results of Indonesian Christine Ay Tjoe's record prices achieved in past seasons, Phillips Hong Kong showcases the strongest selection of Southeast Asian Art across both Evening and Day sales. This Arin Dwihartanto Sunaryo is part of the single-owner collection of Southeast Asian Art, featuring quality works by some of the best-known and most promising artists from the region. If you want to build a Southeast Asian art collection, look no further.
Yayoi Kusama, Three Pumpkins, Evening Sale
The Kusama craze continues worldwide. From MACAN Jakarta's successful show of Kusama's works this year to auctions around the world, the popularity and cult of Kusama just doesn't stop. Phillips is offering this rare trio of Kusama's iconic Pumpkin paintings. It's a trophy piece for a top-notch collection, indeed.
KAWS, Seated Companion, Evening Sale
Did you know that Phillips holds the record for selling the most expensive KAWS sculpture? Moreover, Phillips also holds the most records for selling KAWS artworks than any other auction house (out of the top 10 current record). Provocative and rendered in a sophisticated greyscale palette this 2m-long Companion (Resting Place) sculpture is expected to cause a frenzy for KAWS collectors at auction this month.
Banksy, Two works, Abe Lincoln, Evening Sale
Don't miss out on the chance to see two works by the elusive and mysterious graffiti artist Banksy go up at auction. These two pictures on cardboard were created in 2008 when Banksy visited New Orleans, three years after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. There, Banksy painted Abraham Lincoln as a homeless man, pushing a trolley full of goods, using the same stencil he would employ for these works on cardboard. Tune in online for the live auction.

Dangerous opportunism
The Hindu, December 4, 2013
Telangana is now close to statehood on the strength of an untiring, intense mass struggle that had its basis in the assertion of historical political identities. To allow electoral calculations to decide the contours of the new state is to undermine the legitimacy of the aspirations that fuelled the original demand for statehood. Nothing but sheer political opportunism explains the new proposal to enlarge the proposed state by adding two districts of the Rayalaseema region, Kurnool and Anantapur, to create what in popular parlance has come to be known as Rayala-Telangana. This idea that has sprung out of cynical political calculations is ill-conceived, militating as it does against considered rationale for state formation. The proposal for Telangana in its original form includes only ten districts of Andhra Pradesh. That there is no popular underpinning for this concept either from the Telangana movement or the two districts shows that it is a politically-driven calculation. To think such a forced political union could solve some of the difficulties in sharing water resources post-bifurcation is naïve. If anything, the merger would add to the existing difficulties arising out of the bifurcation.
Although the backwardness of the Telangana region and the perceived political neglect were among the reasons that sustained the statehood demand, the redress sought by the Telangana movement was political, and not economic. Both Kurnool and Anantapur are backward like most of Telangana, but this is no reason for the people of the two districts to share any regional affinity with those in the proposed state. The people of Telangana insist on the implementation of the Mulki rules that specify domicile conditions for recruitment in government services. The differentiation between Mulkis (locals) and non-Mulkis is deep-rooted in Telangana. Thus, the forced union of the two districts with the new state of Telangana can only leave the peoples of both regions unhappy. While fast-tracking the creation of Telangana, the Central government seems to have placed a heavy emphasis on the interests of the Congress as a party. The proposal for Rayala-Telangana is evidently meant to help the Congress make gains in the next election by undercutting the popular support of its main rivals, the Telangana Rashtra Samithi and the YSR Congress. Indeed, the Cabinet cleared the statehood demand only after the Congress Working Committee passed a resolution favouring Telangana. The government is tailing the party. Rank political opportunism and sordid electoral calculations must not be allowed to undermine the serious institutional process of state formation, and put in jeopardy the lives and security of the people.

Chicken Meatballs/
I absolutely love these chicken meatballs, I came across the recipe about a year ago at Smitten Kitchen and have been making them ever since. Everyone who has had them agrees they are delicious! You will get hooked on these things. I've pretty much followed the recipe with a few changes here and there. One difference is that I grind my own chicken, if you have access to a meat grinder I recommend it, it tastes better and you know exactly what is in it. I use chicken breast and trim off any fat so that the meat is lean.Read More

Testimonial: Branscombe Holiday Let
Nicola recently updated and improved my website for holiday accommodation. She produced a site that was very attractive and pleasing to look at. It was easy to use and navigate to find out information. Nicola helped me understand how to use keywords to optimise Google searches and how to edit the site to keep it up to date. Communication was good. Nicola listened to what I wanted from the site, gave me good ideas of her own and persevered with minor teething problems until they were sorted. She was good value for money and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to others.

"We have not been able to upload new videos on our official YouTube page since July 25. Both YouTube and (its parent company) Google have declined to comment," said Press TV Newsroom Director Hamid Reza Emadi.
He added that YouTube was "in fact responding to an ADL order to stop us from revealing Israeli crimes to the world."
An article on ADL's official website has accused Press TV of bypassing the West's sanctions by broadcasting live via YouTube and other internet and mobile platforms.
"ADL has contacted YouTube regarding concerns about Press TV," reads the article, further noting that the station's "broadcast on YouTube comes at a time when the United States, the European Union and others in the international community are seeking to isolate Iran."
Since January 2012, Press TV has come under mounting pressure from European governments and satellite companies, which have taken the alternative channel off the air across the European Union.
In a statement published on the official website of the American Jewish Committee (AJC), the pro-Israeli lobby has lauded Spain's efforts to ban Press TV, saying Madrid has pulled the plug on the Iranian channel following months of negotiations with the AJC.
He said Press TV had to create an alternative YouTube account to upload its videos.

Gail Collins columnist, NY Times
My fellow Americans, the state of the union is angry. Also strong. Presidents usually do say it's strong. But this year, you would have to go with strongly angry.
President Barack Obama's address on Wednesday night was hardly the first to be delivered in a sea of rancor. The one Bill Clinton gave during impeachment — now there was a doozy. But seldom have so many people been angry for so many different reasons.
Everybody's having a fight with someone. John McCain is under attack by the Tea Party folk in Arizona, one of whose leaders just said she'd rather vote for her dog. (Meanwhile, the Tea Partyites are squabbling among themselves so much that you fear for the crockery.) In New York, Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand were recently compared to parakeets by a fractious fellow Democrat.
The House Democrats are livid with the Senators for all that health care drama. The House Republicans barely think about the Senate at all because they're so busy hating the House Democrats.
The Cabinet members look a little sullen. On speech night, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner was fresh from a congressional hearing in which one of the Democrats ranted at him as if he were something way worse than a dog or a parakeet. The congressman in question was from Massachusetts. Where, you may have heard, people are furious.
The Supreme Court probably came in for the speech cranky, too. Justice John Paul Stevens, 89, may be planning to retire. And can you imagine how irate people are going to get when Obama tries to name a successor?
There isn't a single jurist in the United States who doesn't hold some opinion that 41 members of the Senate would find outrageous. Maybe the administration can locate a nice 50-year-old lawyer who was plunged into a coma on the day he or she passed the bar and only emerged last week.
Barack Obama does not normally do mad. Peeved, yes. He looked pretty peeved when he was being interviewed by Diane Sawyer of ABC News the other night. If he can't manage mellow with Diane Sawyer, what's he going to do on Friday when he meets with the House Republicans?
Have you ever seen all the House Republicans in one place? It's like a herd of rabid otters.
"The one thing I'm clear about is that I'd rather be a really good one-term president than a mediocre two-term president," he told Sawyer. Being a good one-term president probably sounds great to him right now. Run the Obama Foundation and never have to deal with Joe Lieberman again.
But name one really good president who walked away after one term. James Polk did OK. But do you really think Barack Obama wants to be remembered as the James Polk of the 21st century?
Wednesday was not the best moment in the history of the president's relationship with Congress. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being impeachment, we are currently bouncing along somewhere between 6 (honeymoon is so over) and 8 ("You lie!"). The president's call for putting limits on lobbyist campaign donations may have pushed it nearer to 9.
Practically everybody in Congress resents the proposal to freeze spending on discretionary programs that Obama suggested. Democrats hate it because they like discretionary programs. Republicans say it's way too little, too late. And, besides, it's their issue, hands off.
Actually, Obama might be on to something. The last few presidents generally only had luck getting big things passed when they proposed the other party's programs. Bill Clinton got welfare reform. George W. Bush got education reform and the Medicare drug plan. Both of those were basically Democratic ideas, although Bush added his own personal twist of not paying for them.
Right now the Republicans are calling for a bigger, bolder attack on the deficit. This seems to involve cutting taxes while slicing away at all spending that does not involve the military or anyone over the age of 65. Also, hands off agriculture.
Meanwhile, the people watching the State of the Union from the comfort of their homes were really, really angry, too. Even if their homes are comfortable, they still aren't worth as much as they were three years ago.
Voters appear to be less ticked off at the president than they are at Congress. The latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll found that 93 percent of those surveyed said there was too much partisan fighting in Washington and little cooperation.
It would be interesting to meet the 5 percent of respondents who disagreed. Perhaps they were part of the 6 percent who told the pollsters that they couldn't remember whom they had voted for in the 2008 election.
Maybe one of them would like to be nominated to the Supreme Court.

Dagan's book provides a dynamic and much needed account of the American law of restitution. The book reviews the existing doctrine, including the forthcoming (third) Restatement, using an ethical perspective to expose and examine critically the normative underpinnings of the core categories of restitution. Dagan also discusses some of the most controversial issues in the area, such as cohabitation, improper tax payments, and the role of constructive trusts as trumps in bankruptcy. He further tackles the recent restitution claims of slave laborers (or their descendants) against corporations that benefited from their enslavements, and of governmental bodies against injurious industries. Dagan argues that the concept of unjust enrichment is not an independent reason for restitution but, rather, serves as a loose framework, structuring the contextual application of commitments to autonomy, utility, and community in situations where either the cause of action or the measure of recovery is benefit-based. By integrating doctrinal and ethical analyses of restitution across the spectrum of restitution contexts, the author offers significant and provocative insights on existing law as well as possible reforms.Read more

Reviews & endorsements
"In this well-argued and persuasive book, Hanoch Dagan undertakes a doctrinal and normative analysis of the American law of restitution … Professor Dagan's approach to this multifaceted field requires him to wear different masks on different occasions, appearing [] sometimes as status quo-reinforcing conservative and other times as rule-revising revolutionary. The comprehensiveness and clarity of the book unlocks the exciting practical and theoretical potential of, to invoke Richard A. Epstein's metaphor, a common law coach restored to its former stability running atop four robust substantive wheels."
--Harvard Law Review
See more reviews
"Hanoch Dagan undertakes to explain and justify the American law of restitution. He offers a broad theoretical account of this poorly understood subject, designed not only to fortify the substantive law of restitution but also to clarify the role and methodology of courts in developing the field … Dagan has written an excellent book on a difficult subject. His analysis of restitution is careful, readable, extremely well-informed, and normatively attractive. It succeeds very well in presenting restitution as an accessible and appealing field of law."
--Michigan Law Review
"Dagan's book is a significant milestone in the reawakening of the law of restitution in the legal academy of the United States. Its range and depth make it an effective protest against the marginalization of restitution. Dagan displays the intellectual richness of restitution by offering an intense and sustained analysis across the entire range of restitutionary problems … Throughout, Dagan treats the law of restitution as a dynamic phenomenon whose every element calls for justification."
--Virginia Law Review
"… what we have here is a clearly-argued and highly sophisticated treatment of a large number of the major issues arising in restitution cases … You may not agree with the arguments: but if you do not, you will have to mount some pretty sophisticated ones of your own. In any case, this is an excellent, scholarly and readable work that will not have much chance to gather dust on a restitution lawyer's shelves."
--Restitution Law Review
"The book is a beautifully researched and argued analysis for the specialist. It is unusual in conception and execution but it is impressive, firstly, in its presentation of the central issues that arise in relation to important cases of the law of restitution. It also offers a very interesting and sometimes challenging critique of mainstream theory."
--Edinburgh Law Review
"Dagan's thoughtful and thought-provoking book is a welcome and fundamental reappraisal of the ethical basis of the modern law of restitution … [He] has produced an important and illuminating work with lessons of general application which will be of value throughout the common law world. He set himself the optimistic task of integrating the normative discourse into the legal analysis; and, in this task, he has succeeded admirably."
--Dublin University Law Journal
"...The Law and Ethics of Restitution is a challenging and important work not only in the law of restitution but also in legal theory..."
--Dennis Klimchuk, Canadian Journal of Law and Jurisprudence

Garbage Collection (GC) frees objects that are no longer referenced by the Java application. There are several Java GC algorithms including Throughput (PS) and Concurrent Mark Sweep (CMS). The PS collector (the default) always and the CMS collector sometimes does what is known as a stop-the-world GC where it stops all application threads to clean up dead objects. This results in a GC pause. Long GC pauses have the potential to cause many issues with Geode JVMs including client timeouts, members being kicked out of the distributed system, etc. It is always recommended to use the CMS collector with Geode processes.
There are several ways to see GC pauses. One is to enable GC debugging. Startup parameters like below can be added to the JVM to enable GC debugging. For additional details, see the Java HotSpot VM Options guide or the Troubleshooting Guide for HotSpot VM guide.
- -verbose:gc
- -Xloggc:gc.log
- -XX:+PrintGCDetails
- -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps
- -XX:+PrintGCApplicationStoppedTime
The output from the GC debugging VM arguments is to show GC activity. For example, the -XX:+PrintGCApplicationStoppedTime VM argument shows application pauses. The output below shows a 7 second application pause.
Total time for which application threads were stopped: 7.0117490 seconds
In addition, the -XX:+PrintGCDetails VM argument also shows pauses as shown below. The Full GC below paused the application for 21.73 seconds.
2014-09-29T00:37:36.047-0700: 184053.420: [Full GC2014-09-29T00:37:36.048-0700: 184053.421: [CMS: 38824730K->18654967K(98566144K), 21.7356830 secs] 39078944K->18654967K(100453632K), [CMS Perm : 45938K->45360K(46208K)], 21.7391550 secs] [Times: user=20.94 sys=0.78, real=21.73 secs]
Another way to see GC pauses is to use
vsd to display the VMGCStats collections andcollectionTime values as well as the StatSampler delayDuration and jvmPausesvalues contained in a given Geode statistics archive.
Logging the delta between the bottom left and bottom right of the line where it touches 0 shows a 23 second GC pause.
Delta on {ConcurrentMarkSweep 19977} collectionTime point1: 09/29 00:37:36, 0 point2: 09/29 00:37:59, 0 time delta = 23 seconds. value delta = 0 Milliseconds / second. value/time delta = 0.0 Milliseconds / second per second. Of the 3 data points in this range: the min is: 0.0 the max is: 987.954545455 the average is: 329.318181818 the stddev is: 570.395822765
The chart below shows the StatSampler delayDuration values. This statistic is set when the statistic sampler thread wakes up to sample statistics. It should be a fairly straight line at the statistic sampling interval. Spikes indicate that the thread didn't wake up at the normal time. This can be due to a number of things including high CPU, low memory and GC pauses. In this case, it spikes to >20 seconds.
The chart below shows the StatSampler jvmPauses values. This statistic shows thedelayDuration in a different way. Any time the dalayDuration is >3 seconds, this statistic is incremented.
It is also accompanied by a warning message in the Geode log like:
[warning 2014/09/29 00:37:57.792 PDT server <Thread-10 StatSampler> tid=0xb8] Statistics sampling thread detected a wakeup delay of 20,995 ms, indicating a possible resource issue. Check the GC, memory, and CPU statistics.
GC tuning can be difficult. The most important thing is to berify adequate heap headroom using the threshold JVM argument. Anywhere between 35% and 50% headroom is recommended to prevent heap fragmentation.
Some other areas to check are:
- Make sure the NewSize is correct
- Make sure PermGen is correct
See Sizing a Geode Cluster for additional details.

War- a part of our past, present and future. War brings about changes-but not without a price......today is a day to remember all who have paid the price in one form or another and all those who continue to rise to the challenge for others. THANKS from the bottom of my heart, THANKS on behalf of my family, friends, neighbors, and Country. Know that the sacrifice is appreciated!
In my own family, I have family that served in Vietnam, WWII, Civil War, War of 1812 and Revolutionary War just to name a few. I'm sure that as we research our family histories, we will come across many who served. That's not even counting the family, friends, neighbors and others are are serving today and continuing to serve. God be with you!

It doesn't matter how long you've been using it, if you're invested in Groove Music Microsoft just dealt you a hammer blow. Music is a pretty major part of any ecosystem, and you probably settled on Groove because you enjoyed using it.
Now you have to look elsewhere, and that's the topic of a discussion in the Windows Central forums.
More: Best Alternatives to Groove Music
One of the issues lies in the OneDrive integration with Groove, which allowed you to mix your own music with your streaming music. That's hard to replicate, and if you're still clinging to a Windows phone you're going to come up short.
Personally, I moved my streaming music to Tidal before the death of Groove, entirely for the lossless streams. I've been very happy with it, and it's very usable on Windows 10 and Mobile thanks to an unofficial app that, for now at least, continues to work well.
Microsoft is pushing people towards Spotify, but it's not the only service out there. So which have you been using or considering? Maybe you need some help finding your way? If so, jump into the forums and join the discussion.
