Back in 2006, when he was writing The Conscience of a Liberal, Krugman found himself searching for a way to describe his own political Eden, his vision of America before the Fall. He knew the moment that he wanted to describe: the fifties and early sixties, when prosperity was not only broad but broadly shared. Wells, looking over a draft, thought his account was too numerical, too cold. She suggested that he describe his own childhood, in the middle-class suburb of Merrick, Long Island. And so Krugman began writing with an almost choking nostalgia, the sort of feeling that he usually despises: The political and economic environment of my youth stands revealed as a paradise lost, an exceptional moment in our nation's history
Krugman remembers Merrick in these terms, as a place that provoked in him amazingly little alienation. All the mothers waiting to pick up the fathers at the train station in the evening, he says, remembering. You were in an area where there were a lot of quiet streets, and it was possible to take bike rides all over Long Island. We used to ride up to Sagamore Hill, the old Teddy Roosevelt estate. The Krugmans lived in a less lush part of Merrick, full of small ranch houses each containing the promise of social ascent. I remember there was often a typical conversational thing about how well the plumbersbasically the unionized blue-collar occupationswere doing, as opposed to white-collar middle managers like my father.
This Edenic Merrick has long since evaporated, giving way to something more socially distended and bizarre. (Amy Fisher, for instance, attended Krugman's high school.) Would he prefer Merrick in the sixties to his current life? Knowing that I am in fact me, this is a much better society for me to live in. And not because of the money but because it's more open, more tolerant, Krugman says. The food, he says, musing, is a lot better. You can get really good coffee just about anywhere.
But talking about Merrick prompts Krugman to think about how that moment might have been extended. Suppose an alternative history in which big-box stores, Wal-Mart and others, were unionized, he says. You could easily imagine that you could have a large number of service-sector workers who were, if not like autoworkers, like manufacturing-sector union workers in the golden age of private-sector unions. He thinks for another minute. It might not have been Utopia, he says, but it could have been France. But now these possibilities seem further away than ever. Part of the basic loneliness of economic study is that you are always looking back, at data sets that are already completed. And so you realize your vision of a perfect society just as it disappears from view.

Imagine….crystal blue sea, yachts, a long boulevard with many cafe's, "see and be seen"… Summer in Saint-Tropez. This is the first impression of Saint Tropez (which is discovered by Brigitte Bardot.) for a lot of people. I've been in Saint-Tropez two times during Summer and I discovered more about this village then only the yachts…
Summer in Saint-Tropez
It is a fact that you see a lot of famous people in Saint-Tropez. The yachts are enormously, the prices are high. But Saint Tropez is also a charming villag and it was a pleasure to discover another side of it.
The last time, I travelled to Saint-Tropez by boat from Saint-Maxime to avoid the traffic jams, which are awful during the Summer months. It was lovely to admire this village from the water. The colorful houses, the tower of the church, it all was glistering in the sun. A wonderful view on the houses, the hilltop villages and wine domains.
Saint-Tropez behind the scenes
This time we had more time to explore Saint-Tropez so we avoid the boulevard and strolled through the back streets. I fell in love with the colourful houses and the silence. It was surprising to me! The other side of Saint-Tropez…. A place which I adored from another holiday in my teenage years. The glitter & glamour and the beauty was something new to me. So that's why I was happy to be back, to discover an other side of this charming village.
Saint-Tropez in photos
Like I said, Saint-Tropez surprised me and inspired me. I fell in love with the bright colors and a buzzing atmosphere and the narrow quiet streets. It was lovely to wander around, without a plan, and be surprised by every corner of the street.
What to see & to do
The House of Butterflies: a small museum with over 20,000 species of butterflies from all over the world
Annonciade Museum: this museum hosts a stunning collection of Signac, Matisse, Picabia, Braque, and Dufy, amongst others.
Market: On Saturday and Tuesday there is a market in Saint-Tropez under the trees of the Place des Lices. In addition to fruit and vegetables, you can buy leather sandals, antiques and curiosities, clothes and French pottery in this colorful market.
The most beautiful market is the vegetable market at the port of Saint Tropez at Place Aux Herbes. On the market you buy fruit, vegetables and flowers. The market is held in a picturesque square. Many Frances can not look like a square.
Shopping: Rue Gambetta is a long shopping street of Saint Tropez where you can find little boutiques of fashion and antiques. In Rue Francois Sibilli, you'll find the designer shops of Louis Vuitton, Versace etc.
Have you ever been in Saint-Tropez?

I love this, outside 2 days in a row... perfect.
Rooster fell asleep on us girls so I took the little ladies outside to play around 5:00. It was so nice out. In the 50s, and while the sun was going down, the sky was still clear and blue.
This adorable little pigeon couple was wandering around the yard...
Lydia informs me that she is a "bird expert" and that she knows how to call to them ...
"Awk Awk" she shrieks, oddly enough they came closer and seemed to enjoy her, uh, calls.
Layla plopped down beside me, hands outreached, saying " Bird, Bird, Birdie, Tweet" They got within 5 feet of us... watching us, watching them. It was magical, for the girls and for me.
There were all these wonderful signs of life everywhere... little bugs under blankets of leaves, melting snow revealing green, green grass, birds singing and flying everywhere, buds popping out on all the little trees and plants, and that clean smell that only comes with Spring.
we have been so blessed.

The death in June of Liu Chia Liang, after a two decade battle against cancer, seems to have gone virtually unnoticed by the mainstream media, which is a shame because he was only one of the best action directors and choreographers who ever lived. His work deserves to be celebrated – especially now, as a corrective to modern Hollywood's unfortunate tendency to create action by chopping it into little pieces in the editing room rather than staging it in longer takes in front of the camera.
Along with Chang Cheh (who died in 2002), Liu Chia Liang was one of the most prominent directors during the heyday of Shaw Brothers studios, and a exponent of the popular Hong Kong synthesis of samurai movie, spaghetti western and wuxia (Chinese stories of chivalry and martial arts). He also appeared in many of the films, and as recently as 2005 worked as stunt director and actor on Tsui Hark's Seven Swords.
He started learning kung-fu at the age of eight from his father, a martial arts master, and in 1965, at the age of 21, joined Shaw Brothers, where he began to collaborate with another director-to-be, Tang Chia, in choreographing action sequences, notably for the films of Chang Cheh. When Liu started to direct, his approach was very different from the solemn heroic bromance of Chang Cheh's work; his films contain more humour (though the combat scenes are usually deadly serious), and even have fighting roles for women.
You don't watch kung-fu films for the stories, which are usually some variation on avenging the death or defeat of a loved one or associate, and often involve elaborate training rituals in which the protagonist must hone his kung-fu skills. You watch them for the scenes of combat, which at their best can have grace and rhythm as glorious as the dance routines of Fred Astaire or the comic set-pieces of Buster Keaton. The great martial arts directors knew how to film a fight scene, with none of the excessive editing and pointless fancy camerawork you see in Hollywood action films today. The combatants and their moves are clearly visible, and despite the use of stylised sound effects and occasional use of wirework in some of the more extravagant leaps and tumbles, it's the actors themselves, often trained in Chinese opera, whose acrobatic skills are on display. It's all in the choreography, and Liu Chia Liang's choreography was the very best.
Liu's favourite leading actor was Gordon Liu, perhaps best known to western audiences these days for his appearances (as different characters) in both volumes of Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill. His first film for Liu Chia Liang was Dirty Ho (1976), in which he plays a prince who has to keep his kung-fu skills hidden – hence some dazzling choreography when he pretends it's not him but a female lute-player who is doing the fighting.
The character Gordon Liu played in in Kill Bill: Volume 2 was Pai Mei, a white-haired priest who had already appeared as an out-and-out villain in Liu Chia Liang's Executioners from Shaolin (1977), where he was played by perennial bad guy actor Lo Lieh. Pai Mei's party-piece is the ability to retract his testicles into his groin, making him all but invincible in combat.
Gordon Liu's next film with Liu Chia Liang was a kung-fu classic, became the actor's signature role, and incidentally inspired American hip-hoppers the Wu-Tang Clan. In The 36th Chamber of Shaolin (1978), he plays a young student who wants to learn martial arts at the Shaolin temple so he can avenge friends and family. The film is famed for its elaborate training sequences based on seemingly mundane tasks – without which we would never have had the "wax on, wax off" of The Karate Kid. Return to the 36th Chamber, the first of two sequels, followed in 1980, and is memorable for its astonishing use of bamboo scaffolding techniques in the fight scenes.
Atypically for a Liu Chia Liang film, Legendary Weapons of China (1982) incorporated supernatural elements in its story about the search for martial artists invulnerable to bullets. Liu Chia Liang (in the red) fights his real-life brother Liu Chia Yung (in the white), also a martial arts choreographer and director, and the results are spectacular. There's a list of the legendary weapons themselves on Wikipedia.
My favourite Liu Chia Liang film, Eight Diagram Pole Fighter (1984) is also atypical in that it's less humorous than that of the director's other films; the story starts with betrayal and a massacre, and it can't have lightened the mood when one of the film's stars, Alexander Fu Sheng, died in a car accident before the end of filming.
Gordon Liu, whose character survives the film's opening carnage, seeks refuge with monks whose vows forbid them to kill - so they have devised a method of defeating marauding wolves by defanging them, a technique gleefully applied to the villains in this final showdown. Warning: this clip is particularly bloody. But the bad guys have behaved so nefariously they deserve everything they get in one of Lia Chia Liang's most thrilling fight scenes.

The SRA Handbook includes a set of guidelines that solicitors are expected to follow during conveyance. It explains how a solicitor should handle different situations that arise during conveyancing. It also outlines how solicitors are supposed to conduct themselves before the people they will be dealing with during conveyance. The Solicitor Regulatory Authority writes the book (SRA) hence referred to as SRA handbook. SRA is a government body that regulates solicitors. It is usually updated periodically to take into account changes in the housing market. The housing market is very dynamic. SRA guidelines of one year cannot be applicable in another year. These guidelines consist best practices from real practical cases and what to expect during conveyance.
The purpose of the SRA handbook is to ensure that property transaction goes on smoothly for clients. Property purchase is one of the most sensitive transaction you can ever imagine. It involves many legal lingo and vast sums of money. The involvement of lawyers is not meant to fleece buyers and sellers off their money. On the contrary, the law ensures that property transactions are smooth and that no party cries foul over when a deal gone wrong. The law also ensures that everyone gets a place to live in regardless of his economic status or place of origin. These are important considerations. However, for the proper influence of the practices, laws must be enacted and regulations set. This is where the lawyers, also known as solicitors, come in.
SRA Handbook provides a quality standard expected from a solicitor. This by no means implies that the solicitors do not know the law. Solicitors are highly trained in matters of law. They have gone through years of training in law schools. Those who carry out conveyance by themselves have worked with hardened solicitors and are themselves endowed with years of experience. The SRA Handbook is only a few pages long and written in English. However, not anybody can read through and claim to be a good solicitor. The years of law training plays a significant role in ensuring that solicitors understand and adhere to the guidelines indicated in the SRA Handbook.
The SRA Handbook can be arbitrarily divided into four different components. The first one deals with how solicitors should relate with their clients. This is covered in Principles of Conveyance and the Code of Conduct. The principles of conveyance are the do and don'ts of solicitors. They outline how a solicitor should undertake conveyance without harming his client. These principles stress on honesty and professionalism. There are ten principles in total. The Code of Conduct explains what a solicitor can handle every situation in the conveyance. It is like a recipe for conveyancing. It explains the procedures that a solicitor should follow during conveyance, and how the solicitor can handle emerging issues.
The second component of the SRA Handbook describes how solicitors should interact with third parties in a property transaction. Third parties are people who facilitate conveyance but do not enjoy the highest price of conveyance. The highest price of conveyancing is a home for the buyer and money for the seller. Third parties include mortgage lenders, Land Registry and property valuation officers. The other two components of SRA relate to how a solicitor interacts with his regulatory bodies and how he can improve himself in his career.

The purpose of the course is to provide participants with an understanding of dynamic programming (DP) models and their empirical application. The DP framework has been extensively used in economics to model sequential decision-making over time and under uncertainty. Prominent examples include saving/consumption decisions, retirement behavior, investment, labor supply/demand, housing decisions, and vehicle replacement decisions. The course will first review the theoretical concepts and computational approaches, and then focus on modern empirical applications covering both discrete and continuous decision problems, large scale problems and dynamic games.
The course will cover a range of solution and estimation methods for single agent problems such as value function iterations, policy iterations, method of endogenous gridpoints (EGM), mathematical programming with equilibrium constraints (MPEC), nested fixed point algorithm (NFXP), CCP-estimator, nested pseudo likelihood, as well as their extensions for stochastic games, including the recursive lexicographical search (RLS) method for solving dynamic games with multiple equilibria. The participants will get hands on experience with solving and estimating relatively simple models using provided MATLAB code.
Pre-requisites: Some basic knowledge of dynamic programming model and some programming experience (ideally in MATLAB).
To get the full benefit of the course through hands on experience with solving and estimating relatively simple DP models, participants are encouraged to bring their own laptops with MATLAB installed. Computers will not be provided.

(Recommended by Krupp Library Circulation Assistant Bill Doughty)
Lots of people have written prose novels featuring comic book / comic strip characters over the years, and more often than not, the end results fall into one of two categories. You either end up with a fairly traditional sort of comic story, with extra exposition subbing in for the pictures in order to move the plot along, or else the author attempts to reconceive the characters and setting in some sort of ironic and/or postmodern context. Neither approach is wrong, necessarily, and there are some good examples from both schools of thought (a whole lot of really bad ones, too), but there aren't a lot out there that bridge that gap. Tom DeHaven's It's Superman! : A Novel, however, is one of the few that does exist in that much sought-after middle ground.
Now if you come into this expecting something along the lines of the sort of Superman stories you see at the movie theater or at the local comic book store every Wednesday, you'll be in for a bit of a shock. DeHaven takes his story of the Man of Steel back to the character's origins… not Krypton, but the 1930s. The Superman who first appeared in 1938's Action Comics #1 was somewhat different than the hero we know today – he could leap tall buildings in a single bound, but couldn't quite fly yet, a powerful enough explosion could make him bleed, and he was sometimes as much a hindrance to the police as a help – and it is this period's version of the character we come to know over the course of the novel. Smartly, he also tells the stories of two other people important to the mythos, Lois Lane and Lex Luthor, in parallel to Clark's own, their paths slowly crossing and, soon, completely intertwining, as they eventually grow into the characters we'll recognize once Superman's comic book exploits begin.
And that's the real strength of DeHaven's work here – exploring the unprobed pasts of these otherwise familiar presences, adding motivations and even providing potential answers to questions we might not have even thought to ask ourselves. How would it feel to be knowingly different, alien, to everyone else around you in Depression- and Dust Bowl-era Kansas? What events lead a farmboy to fight social injustice in the biggest city in the world (and why does he dress like *that* when doing so)? How does a top-of-her-class journalism student fight to get her foot in the door of the male-driven journalist game, and if she really is so smart, how can she not figure out the man she loves and the man she just barely tolerates are the same guy? Why drives a certifiable genius to crime when he could use his gifts to help the world, and why does he seem to actually enjoy squaring off against so powerful an enemy (and where do all those robots of his come from, anyway)?
DeHaven walks a fine line as he tries to find new wrinkles in a story that most people already know coming into this (seriously, how many people don't know the basics of the Superman story by now?), but by going back to the period of the characters' real world origins, and focusing more on Man than Superman (apologies to George Bernard Shaw). It's a bit like the show "Smallville" by way of John Steinbeck, really… and weird as that may sound, it kind of works.


text: Ruling shows courts struggling with handling national class actionsMarch 16, 2015|Written By Glenn Kauth Canadian courts continue to struggle with how to deal with national class actions, as demonstrated in an Ontario Court of Appeal decision on whether an Ontario judge could sit together with colleagues from other provinces to consider the Hepatitis C case.Barry Glaspell says the big issue with national class actions is often how to implement them."There are serious difficulties with many national class actions that we have to deal with, and this is one example of it," says Barry Glaspell, a class actions lawyer at Borden Ladner Gervais LLP. Glaspell was speaking of Parsons v. Ontario, a decision released Friday that included two partial dissents from Justice Harry LaForme's decision in the matter. The judges were ruling on former Ontario chief justice Warren Winkler's decision in 2013 in which, sitting as a Superior Court judge, he held that the Ontario court's "inherent jurisdiction to fully control its own process" permitted it to convene outside the province. In this case, the proceedings were to take place in Edmonton to hear parallel motions arising under the pan-Canadian settlement agreement in the Hepatitis C case. Superior court judges from British Columbia, Ontario, and Quebec are supervising the implementation and enforcement of the settlement.Ontario's attorney general raised a number of arguments in its appeal. It argued the Constitution, the common law, and legislation prevent judges from conducting hearings outside their home province. It also suggested the only way to get around the issue was by using a video link.On the constitutional issue, the province argued the federal nature of Canada's court system envisions parallel and distinct court systems operating within their respective jurisdictions; the question of whether judges can hold hearings outside Ontario is a matter for the legislature and not the courts; and conducting a hearing elsewhere infringes the sovereignty of the other province.In deciding the issue, LaForme found each judge would conduct a separate hearing to decide the matter in question. He noted the idea of a single location was to enhance co-operation between the three judges who would nevertheless issue orders from their home provinces."In my view, such a process respects the distinct nature of the courts of each province while stimulating the cooperation required to effectively administer the Settlement Agreement," wrote LaForme.LaForme also found Ontario had effectively conceded that out-of-province hearings aren't presumptively unconstitutional as it recognized that the legislature could authorize them by statute."If Ontario has the legislative authority to permit out-of-province hearings, there can be nothing presumptively unconstitutional about them," he wrote.LaForme also rejected the province's argument about infringing Alberta's sovereignty."In my view, the motion that was to have been heard in Alberta would not have infringed Alberta's sovereignty. It is common ground that the supervisory judges had personal and subject matter jurisdiction in this case. The parallel motions were paper motions; no witnesses were to be called. The exercise of coercive powers was not contemplated. And the motions were to be heard in the context of a pan-Canadian Settlement Agreement approved by each and every jurisdiction in Canada, including Alberta. In these circumstances, I can see no infringement of Alberta's sovereignty."Another key issue in the case was the open-court principle as the Ontario government argued it precludes an Ontario judge from conducting a hearing outside the province. On this issue, LaForme found the principle of open courts isn't absolute as it doesn't guarantee a right to be physically present in the courtroom. And, he noted, the Edmonton hearings would presumably have taken place in open court and the media would still have been able to report on them."The driving factor behind the proximity between open justice and freedom of expression would be preserved," wrote LaForme.Interestingly, the decision in this case was moot in light of legal developments in British Columbia. While the supervising judges in British Columbia and Quebec agreed with the Ontario decision to convene in another province, the B.C. Court of Appeal allowed that province's appeal on the issue. In the end, the courts heard separate motions on the claims extension matter before them. They reached three conflicting decisions, according to LaForme. But the Ontario appeal court went ahead and decided the jurisdictional question as the parties argued the issue was likely to arise again.Glaspell notes the B.C. appeal ruling is subject to a leave application at the Supreme Court of Canada.But adding to the confusion is the fact there were two partial dissents from LaForme's findings. Justice Russell Juriansz found Winkler had erred in finding a Superior Court judge in this case could sit outside Ontario without the necessity of a video link to a courtroom in Ontario."I would conclude that the Ontario supervising judge while physically located outside the province has the jurisdiction and discretion to conduct the motion remotely and concurrently with his or her judicial supervisory counterparts," wrote Juriansz, who emphasized the necessity of ensuring the open-courts principle but found technological alternatives could accommodate the requirement that the Ontario public be able to attend the hearing in an Ontario courtroom.Further partial dissent came from Justice Peter Lauwers, who agreed with LaForme in all respects except on the question of requiring a video link."In my view, s. 135 of the Courts of Justice Act requires a 'video pipe' between the room or rooms outside Ontario in which the hearing is held and a reasonably accessible Ontario courtroom," wrote Lauwers."Only then can the hearing be said to be open to members of the Ontario public who wish to attend. Therefore, in my view, s. 135 is an express statutory limitation on the court's inherent jurisdiction to hold a hearing outside Ontario."For Glaspell, having a video link is key. "I actually think a video link is needed," he says, citing the concern for open courts.Glaspell also notes that underlying the issue in such cases is the question of whether judges from different provinces can confer with each in the absence of counsel."The core issue is whether judges speak to each other before they make their ruling without counsel being present," he says, noting it's an issue counsel would seek instructions on from their clients.Glaspell also says while the legal system has dealt with many national class actions, the difficulty, as this case shows, is often how to implement them."This case has been settled. This is a case where is should not have been a big deal, frankly, and what justice Winkler said made sense," he says.

Level-5 working on unannounced Switch game
The Inazuma series, Yo-Kai Watch series, Prof. Layton series, Fantasy Life, Ni No Kuni… titles born from the minds of Level-5 developers are surely amongst the most beloved games for fans of Japanimation. And while we already know that the studio is working on a new Inazuma Eleven title (subbed "Ares") for 3DS and probably Switch, there are plenty other franchises that we want to see them bring to Nintendo systems. Today, we have a hint at what's in their plans.
In an interview given for Japanese website Nikkei Trendy, company president and CEO Akihiro Hino said that Level-5 is indeed working on at least one game that supports the Switch. Whether this game is Inazuma Eleven Ares, a port (Ni No Kuni II?) or a totally new IP, only the future will tell. Here's the excerpt:
I think Switch is good. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is extremely fun. It's almost dangerous. (Laughs.) Actually, playing with Switch myself, my impression [of the system] has changed a lot from when it was still in development. I was hesitant about its 'play both inside and outside' style, but I feel like there is a considerable potential there.
Anyway, Zelda is a lot of fun, so I personally carry it around and play it as much as I can, even on airplanes. The model that Nintendo gave me is the one with the red- and blue-colored controllers, so when I carried it around a lot, the looks I got made me self-conscious. I bought the black controller that they released myself and attached it. (Laughs.)
I think the Style of Switch is a wonderful fit for competitive games. You can play if you're gathered in real life, as well as online. For example, I think the fact that the game lovers within a company can get together and play Mario Kart is really fascinating and interesting. And while I can't say the content quite yet, we're working on game(s) that support [Switch].

Gerald C. MatterDeputy Chief for City of West Allis Fire Dept., West Allis, WI
Here in West Allis, our Fire Department consists of three separate fire houses, with a total of 118 firefighters. The laundering of all fire-fighting gear, rig towels, dish towels, and bed linens is done at a central site, using a single UniMac® 35-pound washer.
We used to send all this laundry out for cleaning, but it was expensive - nearly fourteen dollars per set of gear. Two years ago, we decided to install the UniMac UW35 for three basic reasons. One of those reasons is NFPA regulation compliance. Another is turn-around time: whereas it used to take us three to five days to get our gear back clean, we can now launder a set of gear ourselves in a matter of hours. Finally, there are the savings in time and money. Not only is the UW35 easy to operate, it has paid for itself in the two years we've had it. We have time and money for more important things. Our UniMac washer helps us run a tight operation.

Every Tuesday I have to walk up and down Carrillo Hill in the evening. The reason for this is not important. What matters is that going once a week to a place you can't help but notice trivial/odd things about it. For example, over the course of three Tuesdays I watched a skunk decompose and get picked apart, eventually leaving a tuft of tail that is still stuck to the sidewalk. Along my route there are also a few 2-liter soda bottles crammed under bush filled with what must be urine; they have remained in the same position for at least a month.
The best thing along this walk, however, are the playing cards that I always find either scattered on the ground or stapled/paper-clipped/taped to trees or sign posts. The cards are all sharpied with an obscure phrase. I like to think of the person who does this as "The Masked Messenger." The one pictured above proclaims "scary good."

Firstly, I want to thank Shawn Smith for his artistic views on everyday objects. Secondly, I'd like to say his 3D pixelated sculptures are definitely mind-blowing. Lastly, I wish I too, had the time to create something this spectacular.
Shawn Smith made these 3D pixelated sculptures of animals and objects out of simple materials like ink, plywood and acrylic paint. Moreover, what's admirable is that there is always a purpose behind his art, beyond aesthetics. Below is a quote in which he describes his work.

Like every other day, I decided to clean the office today. However, today was just so much different than any other day. What I am about to tell you may sound crazy but all I can say is that the beauty in the way God communicates is just amazing.
Anyways, where was I?
Ooooh Yeah...
I put on my gloves and started washing the mop cloth. I could literally feel the water running through the gloves as if it were touching my bare skin.
Side Note: I love anything that has to deal with water: The Beach, waterfalls, pools, etc. Water to me represents peace. It is so much greater than us but yet harmless.
For one second I closed my eyes and I felt through the water what I feel in God's presence, peace. As I opened my eyes I realized the water had no type of contact with my skin but yet it felt so real.
Now take a moment to ask yourself: Am I choosing to KNOW OF GOD or am I choosing TO KNOW GOD.
Sometimes we continue walking through the same path believing for something new to pop up but reality is if we don't give a chance to new and unknown routes then we will just end up back to where we started. Continuously, falling into the same cycle of life and being miserable.
THANK GOD for giving us FREE WILL. Free will to take off the gloves and feel the water. To not just have the feeling of peace but actually having the ability to experience peace.
So YES, I am GRATEFUL that we all have the power to choose our path in life. Today I took off the gloves of stagnation and chose to take one more step towards my destiny. As I did, now I encourage you. No longer do you have to continue to walk through the desert. Today I pray in Jesus name that all the chains are broken and like Moses, the sea is parted for you to walk through.

This dish gets two thumbs up for being budget friendly, quick, easy, and delicious. Not that I'm any expert, but the taste was reasonably authentic. On the other hand, what do I know? I'm from North of the Mason Dixon.
I used this recipe, thanks to its rave reviews, only I halved it. If I hadn't, we would have been eating red beans and rice for the next month.
Now, a word on the beans you use. There is such a thing as a "red bean." They can be found. I, however, could not find them. So I used kidney beans (which also fall under the category of red beans, but aren't Red Beans). It's not the end of the world one way or the other, but if you can find real red beans, then by all means, use them.
Happy cooking!


text: Source: (2007) Paper presented at the annual meeting of the AMERICAN SOCIETY OF CRIMINOLOGY, Atlanta Marriott Marquis, Atlanta, Georgia, Nov 14, 2007.In an effort to support restorative justice at the United Nations, the Working Party on Restorative Justice conducted a Delphi process in 1996 to explore the degree to which there was a consensus among scholars on the meaning of the terms (McCold, 1998). This paper revisits the theoretical debate and reconsiders the status of the academic field a decade later. After reviewing the major threads in the evolution of restorative justice, it is shown that developments toward a generally accepted theoretical consensus have made little progress. Some reasons for this lack of development are suggested and the primary impediments to future development are considered. The author proposes a set of general requirements for an initial theoretical foundation and postulates a need-based barebones theory. The author invites interested academics to challenge this structure and encourages broad collaboration in fleshing out a full-fledged theory of restorative justice. (author's abstract)

116th Air Support Operations Squadron joins in RED FLAG-Alaska
Tactical Air Control Party airmen from the Washington Air National Guard's 116th Air Support Operations Squadron trained in the field at Eielson Air Force Base and Fort Greely, Alaska alongside their active duty counterparts from Eielson as well as Osan Air Force Base, Korea during Red Flag Alaska, June 8-23. Personnel from other countries also participated. "Red Flag Alaska incorporated a truly integrated joint multinational Air-Ground team," said Lt. Col. Raed Gyekis, commander of the 116th ASOS. "We successfully leveraged Guard and Active USAF A10s, an Army Stryker Cavalry Squadron, live mortars, Army Apache gunships, Grey Eagle Army UAVs, Army Artillery and Air Force JSTARS staff, as well as foreign partner aircraft from Korea and JTACs from Belgium, Korea and Great Britain---all under the control of the 116th ASOS TACP team."

"On a quiet but wondrous Christmas Eve, the nativity story comes to life,
and families everywhere celebrate the miracle of Christmas.
Nola Buck's simple poetic text and tender illustrations by Sarah Jane Wright
make this gentle holiday goodnight book a joy to read and share with those you love!"
So, this is quite early in the game. But I had to share! My first picture book, A Christmas Goodnight, won't be coming out until the fall, but this is the first time that I can actually start releasing some images! It's so intersting: I've been working on this since August of 2009, and it's only just now that I can show you what I've spent the past year of my life doing:)
I won't tell you too much right now...there's still quite a while until any of you will be thinking about Christmas again. But, since you are all friends...and friends just want to share....I thought you'd love to catch a glimpse of what A CHRISTMAS GOODNIGHT is about.
Really, this post should be about my husband, friends and family who supported me all along the way. This has been my dream illustrate children's books...and I never realized that illustrating a children's book while mothering young children would be so challenging. But I've learned so much a long the way, which I plan on sharing a little later.
But for now: it's official.

It can not be a scratch.
Do you see it?
There, on my ankle, I can easily recognise a sole and a heel.
It seems that my skin is burned, but I didn't made anything by intention.
To me it looks clear. An elf came by.
That's probably because it's now definitely too much that I don't visit the forest.
In the early December, I made one of my spontaneous sketch on my book that I enjoy so much because I don't ask anything to me, and they come just appear, random ugly or sometimes meaningful.
After some weeks, I made another one, that fits the empty space that the other one created, waiting for an answer.
Do you feel it?
I'd pay one thousand of kites to know which is my way.
The point is not strictly about any skill of mine, the point is mostly about the sense and the power of the ways that I could adopt.
I'd pay one million of melting clocks to meet an elf able to show me my way, without letting me have any doubt about his words.
Instead, I keep thinking that one of the best virtue is always considering any possible theory, that means that any doubt can find its comfort in my psychedelic endless mind… That means that my honest interior pirate has a hard job if has also to carry on the fragility of my interior mermaid (yeah, I'm a pirate and a mermaid at the same, as some good friends told me).
So, here I am, pirate and mermaid, brave and strong and hyper-fragile, I know that my questions seem too big and I might change my mind one billion times again, but the current challenge is this one: try hard on art this 2013, seeing where I go with it and meanwhile decide if I really wanna start a new path.
|*Thank you again, Scobo.*
What's exactly such a new path supposed to be?
If the idea resists still for a long time, I will tell it here for sure.
Right now, the path is find the courage to leave my headphones with The Black Keys on, wear my loved pyjamas, don't laugh too much for how you English speakers say "pyjama", 'cause I actually feel like an imbecile putting such a weird stuff in it (you have just to be comfortable in a "pyjama", instead this word looks like a word with sunglasses!, in Italian we simply say "pigiama", fuck the hell!), and then roll on my bed watching an inspiring movie for my next videoclip.
Ok, stopping to laugh because of how you spell "pyjama" is still hard!
Maybe I should try to wear my pyjama even if I laugh… Probably starting to watch the movie I'll be able to be quiet. Yeah. That's brilliant. I feel so brilliant and cool that I could wear my sunglasses! Yeah, now it makes sense: pyjama and sunglasses.

How To Get Crayon Out Of Washed And Dried Clothes Cheaply
13/04/2016 | Clothes | No Comments
But when he is being excellent give him a treat and give him a fuss that way gradually but shorly he will realise that it is not good and he will stop. Clothes Mentor does not promise the authenticity of any goods to their original brand name, and uses the brand names to denote the style of its merchandise. I seldom see clotheslines where I live – I usually dry clothes on a rack, but inside. You can also purchase a machine that does absolutely nothing except spin the water out of wet clothes. Clothes Mentor is a reseller of brand name and designer items, and is not an authorized dealer of the mentioned companies. I've truly place aside some wire hangers as they are acquiring harder to come by.
I'd constantly heard of tossing laundry in the dryer right after they had been on the line to soften up dried clothes, but I by no means did it. When I take my laundry off the line, I typically like to fold it correct there and put it the basket (folding laundry is much nicer outside in the sunshine, you know?). Every store is independently owned and operated by a local franchisee under a licensing agreement with Clothes Mentor, LLC. My mum always hand washed to keep clothes lasting longer, and I nonetheless do delicates by hand. Here is an interesting wall drying rack that can be just as easily mounted on the door.
Another dilemma with plastic hangers is some hangers wind up becoming different sizes and shapes, more than time some of the hanger hooks have deformed resulting in an uneven look that makes the closets look cluttered. And, for you back-to-nature people out there, you most likely currently know that your clothes dryer is 1 of the largest power consuming appliances in your home.
Now, even though, people are cluttering the net with requests on the appropriate way to put up a clothesline. I favor to hang outdoors, but in winter I use the basement or a tiny folding rack in the bathroom. I can appreciate your background and as you mentioned, everyone loves the fresh smell of clothes dried in the sun! While this gadget is advertised as a closet resolution, strangely sufficient most folks who purchase it use it as an indoor or outside clothes drying rack. Here is a fantastic instance of a low expense, energy saving and sophisticated clothes dryer.
Hold some wire hangers around since they can come in handy for distinct factors, but once you get your clothes property from the cleaners, place them on better hangers. My dad is a real inspiration for me when it comes to hand washing clothes, he washes a lot more than 100 various clothes a day, now can u think that. Skirts and Shorts can also be hung making use of these varieties of hangers in double hang sections. I will show you, from practical knowledge, how to maintain your condenser dryer and keep it running effectively for years. A number of readers have asked about getting all the soap out when hand washing clothes.cheaply, clothes, crayon, dried, washed

Member List Searches Missing Administration Search Criterion
Currently the only administration criterion you can search for in the Advanced search area of the member list is "Administration access" is granted or denied.
It would be far more useful to allow selection criterion that correctly mirrors the actual administrator settings in the database, those being:
* Account administrator (Full access)
* Account administrator (Read-only access)
* Membership manager
* Event manager
* Donations manager
* Website editor - All pages
* Website editor - Selected pages
Sorry, we're not going to implement this in the nearest future. Closing.

It's your software and your call so perhaps we'll see if others feel these are useful. Thanks.
Dmitry Buterin commented
Steve, its easy to add checkboxes and fields to the system - but for me a good system is designed for specific use scenarios, universal systems are usually very hard to use. So for now I am not convinced this is a problem we should be addressing.
Steve Veach commented
I wouldn't suggest you make the assumption that it's a small list and one should just visually scan for the permissions. While this is certainly the case with us, there may be other much larger organizations where it's not the case.
Now philosophically from a software design perspective, one should never have fields in the database that aren't searchable.
Sorry but that's Database Design 101. :)
Dmitry Buterin commented
Steve - can you elaborate - why do you need this?
Usually it's a pretty small list so you can simply open the list of all admins and visually scan it.

This week, the City of San José is hosting a team from the National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO) to help create world-class streets and a premier bicycling network in San Jose. NACTO is bringing staff and experts from Vancouver, Atlanta, and Chicago to advise San José staff and elected officials on how to build great public spaces and bicycle facilities that are comfortable for people of all ages and abilities. The work is starting with a network of facilities in the greater downtown area, to compliment and enhance the existing network the City has been expanding rapidly in the last five years. The Knight Foundation has been a crucial supporter of the effort to dramatically increase safety and accessibility with a protected bike network.
The long-term goal of the project is to have a series of protected bikeways – safe, comfortable bike lanes with physical separation from moving traffic – to get people on bikes in, through, and around downtown; across major barriers like the freeways; and to and from the trail network. These projects aim to make the street better for biking, but also create public spaces for everyone, particularly pedestrians.
As a way of demonstrating this concept, engaging people, and testing a few different design ideas, the City will have a "pop-up" protected bikeway along 4th Street from Monday, 8/7 (today!) through Sunday, 8/13. Please try the pop-up and share your thoughts in this brief survey.
The City and SVBC would appreciate community involvement and feedback! Here are a couple of ways to learn more and provide input:
- Please spread the word about the pop-up, try it, and give us feedback.
- Come out for one of the community events happening as part of the program: a Community Roundtable Workshop on Wednesday (8/9) in the evening in conjunction with Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition, or a Happy Hour on Thursday (8/10) at Uproar Brewing.
- A public tour of the pop-up on Friday, 8/11, at 5:30 pm (rush hour!). Join SVBC with your bike in front of our downtown office at 96 N. Third Street. We'll ride up an existing, more conventional bike lane so that we can compare them to the proposed designs, then test out the multiple designs on 4th Street. Share your thoughts and let us know how you want to see future San José bikeways designed to maximize your safety and comfort.
If we're serious about getting more people to bike for transportation, protected bike lanes are the future of bike infrastructure. Come learn more and experience them for yourself!
SVBC is able to host the Pop-up Protected Bikeway Tour thanks to the grant-funded Focus Cities California project.
Focus Cities California is a program of UC Berkeley SafeTREC and California Walks.
Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The Fabulous World of Jules Verne (1958)
I saw this film once a few years back, and was totally entranced. Czech director Karel Zeman made the most wonderfully peculiar films, using a combination of live-action and animation techniques (you really need to see it on a larger scale than this to fully appreciate how deliciously weird it is). In The Fabulous World of Jules Verne Zeman seems to have been influenced by Jules Verne, Art Nouveau, and heaven only knows what else.

A Bit of Inspiration
Whilst I was doing my outing and abouting at some of the local antique stores and thrift shops, I added a few more things to my horde of book-building materials. The thrift shop owners must think I'm completely mad at times. Whereas a normal customer would pick up a leather purse and check to see if the zipper works, there am I, muttering to myself, myopically squinting at every inch of the thing, mentally transforming it into a book or two. But I did come away with some very nice things.
Including this wonderful patchwork piece. An apron made up of little bits of leftover material, all of it looking to be early 20th century vintage. So now this apron, made up of recycled things, will have its pieces become part of my books. And so it goes.

Edith Piaf -- La Vie En Rose, 1954
Ah, Edith Piaf.
Did you notice the rapturous expressions on the faces of her listeners in the audience? Wish I could have been sitting alongside them.

{A poem to read out loud: When You Are Old}
When You Are Old
When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.
-William Butler Yeats

New City, New Studio
After living a somewhat gypsy-like life for the past while, I'm finally all settled in a beautiful old neighborhood. My new studio is light and airy, and I have all my lovely book making things about me again, including my stash of antique linen thread.
And some of the trunks I store my bits and bobs in.
The all-important inspiration corner.
And even more thread for sewing books.
It feels so good to be settled again. Even better, I now live near the quaint old Hyde Park area of Boise, which has many antique shops full of lovely old fabrics and things which are giving me some interesting ideas....but more on that, later, dear reader.

FLORIDA - BACKGROUND: Dry eye syndrome is a common disorder of the tear film. Dry eyes occur when tears are not able to provide enough moisture for the eyes. For example, dry eyes will occur if the eyes are not producing enough tears or if the tears are poor quality. Tears are a mixture of water, fatty oils, and mucus. They help make the surface of the eye clear and smooth while protecting against infection. For some dry eyes can occur when there is an imbalance in the composition of tears. Dry eyes can cause the eyes to sting and burn. Certain situations may cause you to feel this pain of dry eyes, such as while riding a bike, or looking at a computer screen for long periods of time. (Source: mayoclincic.com)
RISK FACTORS: Decreased tear production is a major cause of dry eye syndrome. Certain factors may put you at risk. Factors include:
• Being older than 50. Tear production diminishes as you get older.
• Being a postmenopausal woman. Lack of tears is more common in women, due to hormonal changes.
• Having a medical condition that reduces tear production. For example, diabetes, lupus, scleroderma, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's syndrome, vitamin A deficiency, and thyroid disorders.
• Having laser eye surgery.
Eyelid problems can also put you at risk. Blinking spreads tears across the surface of the eye. If there is an eyelid problem that makes it difficult to blink, tears may not be spread across the eye adequately. Certain medications are also a risk factor for dry eye disease; for example, drugs that are used for high blood pressure, hormone replacement therapy, antidepressants, antihistamines, and isotretinoin. (Source: mayoclincic.com)
TREATMENT: Dry eye syndrome goes beyond having irritated eyes. It can cause frequent eye infections, scarring on the surface of the eye resulting in vision loss, and decreased quality of life. For most with mildly dry eyes, treatment includes over-the-counter eye drops. If symptoms are more severe, treatment depends on what is causing it. If it is caused by medication, then doctors will suggest switching medications. Also, if there is an eyelid condition, then the doctor may refer you to an eye surgeon to correct the problem. (Source: Mayoclinic.com)
NEW TECHNOLOGY: A revolutionary way to help treat dry eye syndrome is the LipiFlow Thermal Pulsation System. It helps treat dry eyes by opening and clearing blocked glands, which in turn will allow the eyes to resume the natural production of oils (lipids) needed for the tear film. It's a fast procedure that works by applying heat and light pressure to the inside of the eye lid, allowing lipids to be released from the Meibomian glands. In a clinical study, 79% of patients reported improved dry eyes within four weeks of a single treatment. (Source: lipiflow.com)
