Medical Breakthrough: The Beatless Heart
Heart complications have been plagued humanity since the dawn of time. 300,000 people with heart disease die each year. Options to fix various heart conditions have been severely limited. Even with advancements in heart transplant science, the supply of available organs cannot come close to meeting the demand. There are currently over 100,000 patients waitlisted to receive an annual supply of 2,200 hearts. That means that only 2.2% of people who need a heart will get one.
Normally the human heart pumps blood throughout our system using a set of cardiac muscles. These muscles subconsciously squeeze and push blood through each of our four chambers in a coordinated fashion. Each muscular squeeze allows for efficient blood circulation through the body, and can be heard as a beat.
Artificial hearts try to emulate this effect, and show that nothing is impossible in the world of medicine. The first fully synthetic heart transplant in a human was in 1982. The recipient, once suffering from severe congestive heart failure, was given an extra 112 days of life. Modern models have been able to provide more longevity than this.
The problem with current models of the artificial heart is that they have a propensity to break down, due to the strain of beating 100,000 times per day. That's over 35 million times per year! These models have also been known to cause blood clots as well as strokes. This really makes you appreciate what a real heart is able to accomplish on a daily basis.
At the Texas Heart Institute in Houston, Drs. Billy Cohn and Bud Frazier have come up with a concept that is revolutionizing the artificial organ world. The heart of every animal on Earth operates by pulsing (as described above); the one designed by Drs. Cohn and Frazier whirls. The new 'beatless heart' actually spins blood through the body in a continuous flow, using two whirling rotors.
The crux of their idea exists in a Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) that has actually been in existence since the 1980′s. The beatless heart created by Cohn and Frazier combines two intertwined VAD's. For the last few decades, people with ventricular failure in one side of their heart have used a VAD with success. In fact, Former Vice President Dick Cheney had a VAD administered in 2010. Cohn and Frazier were able to tweak an already existing technology to create a game-changing fully-functional heart.
The beatless heart was initially tried on nearly 40 different calves with rousing success. In mid-2011, it was tested for the first time on a human. A gentleman by the name of Craig Lewis was told that due to his heart condition and numerous organ failures, he only had 12 hours left to live. The beatless heart was his last shot. Not only did it work, but Mr. Lewis lived for an additional five weeks before succumbing to the effects of organ failure, and the beatless heart was turned off.
The beatless heart is comprised primarily of dacron (a syntheic polyester with tough, yet elastic properties) on the inside, and a combination of fiberglass and silicone on the outside. Cohn and Frazier's model is smaller, more efficient and more durable than past versions.
Is this technology here to stay? Or will it quickly be passed up by something newer? Dr. Abel DeAnda, chief of cardiothoracic surgery at Bellevue Hospital Center in New York City thinks that it's the real deal. "This would be the wave of the future, the logical next step in this technology. These artificial hearts will be more efficient and less costly and more successful devices. (This is) what we have been looking for."
If you were to check the pulse of someone with one of these beatless hearts, they wouldn't have one. An EKG would show that the patient had flat-lined. If you put your ear to their chest, all you would hear is a light hum. In every way that science has defined a living creature, they would be dead. Craig Lewis, though, was able to sit up and communicate with his family for one last time with his beatless heart firmly in place.
Is our society ready for a heart that doesn't beat? The concept seems so weird because the heartbeat is so entrenched in our daily lives; being discussed in numerous songs and TV shows and felt while laying on a loved one's chest. Some will say it's not natural and that it doesn't belong. I say who cares about the weird. A pain-free, prolonged life is more important than 'keeping with tradition'. We can establish a new norm.
But this topic brings up far greater issues. Is designing and installing organs like this playing God? Are we taking things too far? Are some people 'meant to die'? Is this the first dangerous step towards human immortality?
What do you think? Would you want a beatless heart inside of you?

Well, this is one way to heal a broken heart. I wonder if the study included a psycho-emotional evaluation to determine if the recipient felt differently about life and loved ones, being essentially heartless and all. I am not joking here, the heart really can ache and even literally break. Is this playing God? No, why do people get so hung up on that? If we never cured or repaired our ailments because we thought it was playing God, well… really? Polio? sorry, that's God's will, asthma? just pray, Broken limb? that protusion makes you unique. This is very exciting but I still wonder why we are not growing our own replacement organs from stem cells.

Postcard text: "Braniff International is a multi-coloured fleet of jets - orange, beige, lemon, turquoise, ochre and two shades of blue. To complement the exteriors, there are 7 different designs inside the planes using 56 Herman Miller fabrics - in red, blue, brown, green, orange, yellow, and grey. You can fly with Braniff International planes seven times and never fly the same colour airplane twice."
01/22/2007. Remarks by Jack McKillop: "This aircraft made its first flight on March 26, 1965 and was delivered to Braniff International Airways of Dallas, Texas, USA on April 6, 1965 registered N1544. It was sold to Allegheny Airlines in March 1972; on October 28, 1979, Allegheny Airlines was renamed USAir. In January 1984, it was sold to the low cost carrier Florida Express and named 'Orlando 2'.
In 1985, the aircraft was sold to a leasing company and leased back to Florida Express which merged with Braniff International Airways in March 1988. Braniff leased the aircraft until January 1990 when it was placed in storage in Orlando, Florida. In July 1990, it was sold and placed in storage in Hondo, Texas, until sold in December 1992. Its fate is unknown but as of this date, it is not registered in the USA."

In honor of the smash hit Star Trek, let's check out some hot Star Trek cosplay.
And we're done. Seriously, I can't find that many pictures of hot chicks dressed up in Star Trek costumes. Am I not looking in the right places or are there not many attractive girls dressing up as their favorite Star Trek character? I've seen "professionals" (read: porn stars) in Star Trek costumes and a hell of a lot of not so attractive girls, but not as many hotties as I've seen in Star Wars costumes. Oh yeah, I just went there. Star Wars has hotter fans. Stay tuned next week for my proof. If you're a Star Trek fan and you'd like to prove me wrong, just let me know in the comments.
Disclaimer: I find pictures through random searches on the net. If you are the copyright owner of the image and have a huge problem with it(them) being here, just let me know in the comments and I'll remove the offending image(s). I also don't know any of the people in the pictures nor do I care to, so if I make fun of you and it upsets you I'm really sorry.

My quote:
If the police department is not photographing suspects based on a pattern of racial bias, the practice is likely legal, said Scott MacMullan, a criminal defense attorney based in Annapolis.
Police have to allow suspects the right to walk away or shield themselves from a photograph, said MacMullan, who was not at the meeting. But police can photograph a suspect in a public area, he said.

The Danville Town Council is set to weigh in on a proposed 150-apartment complex on Diablo Road just outside downtown after a group of residents last week appealed the Planning Commission's approval of the project.
The eight-page appeal, submitted on behalf of five residents and an organization called Danville Citizens for Responsible Growth, leads by arguing the commission improperly applied a "use-by-right" determination and California Environmental Quality Act exemption for the project.
"The previous environmental impact report is therefore not sufficient for this project due to exceeding the allowable zoning restrictions with respect to density," they wrote in their appeal letter filed last Thursday, one day before the deadline to challenge the commission's Feb. 28 approval.
The appellants also argue the town did not adequately analyze potential impacts the project would have on the San Ramon Creek and surrounding habitat, traffic, pedestrian and bicycle safety, and air quality.
Those impacts "could be significant and should be studied and mitigated or avoided," according to the appeal, which in addition to the responsible growth group lists Danville residents Julie Glaser, Kirsten Muzinich, Michelle Harris, Ram Namburi and Liz Harvey as the appellants.
The apartment complex proposed by property owner Danville Office Partners, LLC, will now head to the Town Council for consideration. The Planning Commission's 5-0 decision would have stood as the town's final approval of the development proposal if not appealed.
Danville town officials have not yet scheduled when the appeal will go before the council, but city attorney Rob Ewing said the earliest the hearing could be is April 18.
The project proposal calls for 150 apartments in three separate buildings at three stories tall on a 3.68-acre site with a multifamily residential land-use designation at 373-383 Diablo Road, adjacent to the Interstate 680 southbound on-ramp just west of the freeway.
The property, which currently contains two-story office buildings from the 1970s, was one of two sites in the town to secure a new multifamily land-use designation through the 2030 General Plan approval in recognition of the regional housing needs allocation shortfall identified in the town's 2007-14 Housing Element, according to town staff.
As proposed, the apartments would not sit right along Diablo Road, instead being set back behind roadside office buildings. Parking would be a combination of ground-level and basement parking.
Many commissioners expressed lackluster support for the apartment complex Feb. 28 but were steadfast in concluding they were legally obligated, based on state and town development rules, to approve the proposal that drew ire from dozens of residents at a pair of commission meetings this year.
Citizen complaints during the public hearings ranged from issues such as increased traffic, school impact, public safety, parking, emergency access, complex size and tree removal.
The project approvals now remain on hold in the wake of the residents' appeal.
Another variable still affecting the development is a legal dispute between Danville Office Partners, LLC and a neighbor challenging the apartments, centered on a set of private covenants, conditions and restrictions (CC&Rs) affecting the project property and two neighboring parcels -- the Heritage Bank and Cabrita Trust properties -- that prohibits residential uses on any of the three parcels.
Ewing told the commissioners Feb. 28 that the private legal dispute shouldn't factor into their decision about whether the project should be approved as having met town development standards.

I was picky as a kid.
Actually, my mom would probably say that I was extraordinarily picky.
I would not eat tomatoes, onions, mushrooms, sour cream, anything that had large chunks of food in it, anything that was new and unfamiliar, anything spicy, anything…unusual. I ate my cheeseburgers plain and basically subsisted on Campbell's Soup. I was beyond thrilled when I went to college and they had Campbell's Soup on the buffet line as that was the only thing that looked good.
Gradually, very gradually, I began to try new things and realized that the things I had insisted I would not like, I actually loved. Instead of being a picky little brat I should have said just four words.
OK, I'll try it.
Now that I am a grown and rational adult who travels the world and writes about those travels for a living, those four words have become my mantra. I'm still a little bit of a picky eater so when we were offered stuffed dates as an appetizer at the wonderful Oar House restaurant in Dahlonega, Georgia, I hesitated. Dates? Weren't those kind of sticky, kind of chewy, kind of…I don't know…weird? But instead of passing up something that had the possibility of being delicious – they were wrapped in bacon, how bad could they be? – I took one.
And fell in love.
Tender, flavorful, filled with cheese and wrapped with crisp bacon, they were amazing. The told us they sell out every night and we were not surprised. There may have been some fork fighting over the last date.
Just recently, I finally broke down and ordered shrimp and grits at the amazing Bistro Bijoux at the Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort in Miramar Beach, Florida. Offered on many menus in the south, I had always ordered something else when they were available because grits? Aren't they kind of bland, kind of soupy, kind of…weird? If you are ever at Bistro Bijoux, don't order anything else because this dish was absolutely amazing. Creamy, slightly spicy, perfect in every way.
But it's not just food that makes me say OK, I'll try it.
When we were planning our very first cruise, the travel agent insisted that we had to try snorkeling in Grand Cayman. It was amazing, fantastic, unbelievable, we would be so sorry if we missed it. I thought OK, no. Because sharks.
But finally I gave in and when I put my masked face in the water and saw the incredible scene taking place under there with the colors you just can't believe it, I was so very glad I had said OK, I'll try it.
I had always shied away from kayaking. It looked so cool and effortless, just gliding along, but I knew that had to be an illusion. Wouldn't it be hard? What if I tipped over? What if…Finally, I decided to try it on smooth and quiet
Elkhart Lake in Wisconsin. If I failed completely and fell in, the lake was clear, clean, and beautiful and it was a warm day. I can swim well. It would be fine. And it was fine. I took to it like I had been kayaking all my life and I loved every single minute.
I had not been bike riding since I was a kid, over…uh…a lot of years ago. But when my SIL and I were in Florida a few years ago, we were offered the opportunity to ride bikes again. I hesitated. It had been a long time. What if I couldn't do it anymore? What if I fell over? I could do it. I didn't fall over. I loved it and have been bike riding numerous times since then. I'm thinking about buying my own bike. I would have missed so much if I had said no. No thanks instead of OK, I'll try it.
It doesn't always work.
I am terrified of heights but decided that I would attempt zip-lining a couple of years ago. I made it all the way to the first tower and even climbed to the top before I realized I simply could not do it. But I didn't feel bad. I felt great that I had actually made the attempt. OK, I'll try it became Hell no, never again.
And that was OK too. I had tried it.
I don't know what great food we will have on our next trip. I can't imagine what adventures we will experience.
All I know is that I will be saying one thing every single time.
OK, I'll try it.Pin It

Houston Office Market Report – Q2 2012
Houston's strong job growth due the to rapid expansion in the energy sector has boosted office leasing during the first half of 2012. Houston's office market posted 1.4 million SF of positive absorption in the second quarter, pushing the year-to-date total to 2.4 million SF. Increased demand for office space has reduced available inventory, leaving companies that are looking to expand or move into the market with very few options. Office developers have responded by announcing several new spec projects since last quarter.
In addition to the Exxon/Mobile North Houston campus, Anadarko's second corporate tower in The Woodlands, and Phillips 66 announcement regarding their plans to build their headquarters in West Houston, Apache Corp. recently announced the purchase of 6.4 acres of Wulfe & Co.'s BLVD Place mixed-use development in the Galleria area.
Multi-tenant office developments recently announced include Energy Crossing II, a 245,000 SF Lincoln Property Co. development in West Houston which Atwood Oceanics preleased 82,000 SF. Other companies that have announced plans for new office developments include Stena Realty, Trammell Crow, Core Real Estate, Mac Haik, Skanska, and Stream Realty/Wile Interests, to name a few.
Citywide, overall vacancy levels remained relatively unchanged between quarters, increasing by only 10 basis points. The citywide average rental rate rose between quarters from $23.56 per SF to $23.66 per SF.
Vacancy & Availability
Overall vacancy rates increased by 10 basis points to 14.7% from 14.6% on a quarterly basis. The average suburban vacancy rate decreased by 20 basis points to 14.5% from 14.7% the previous quarter, while CBD vacancy increased by 130 basis points to 15.6% from 14.3%. On a year-over-year basis, the city-wide vacancy rate decreased by 120 basis points to 14.7% from 15.9%. The suburban vacancy rate decreased by 140 basis points to 14.5% from 15.9%, and the CBD vacancy rate decreased by 40 basis points to 15.6% from 16.0%.
The CBD Class A vacancy rate increased by 130 basis points to 12.6% from 11.3% between quarters, while the CBD Class B vacancy rate increased 170 basis points to 19.2% from 17.5%. The suburban Class A vacancy rate decreased by 10 basis points to 12.3% from 12.4% between quarters, while the suburban Class B vacancy rate decreased to 16.9% from 17.3%.
Citywide, a total of 37 office properties have a minimum of 100,000 SF available for occupancy within 18 months, including both direct and sublease space. Only 14 of these properties have over 200,000 SF available.
Absorption & Demand
Houston recorded positive net absorption of 1,370,080 SF in the second quarter, pushing the year-to-date absorption total to 2,444,573 SF. Contributing to the second quarter's positive gain was suburban Class A space with a positive net absorption of 924,290 SF, followed by CBD Class A space with positive net absorption of 85,266 SF. Some of the larger tenants that moved into their space or expanded into additional space during the second quarter included Apache Corporation with 65,000 SF, Dynegy Inc. with 62,261 SF, WorleyParsons with 50,716 SF Rockwater Energy Solutions with 44,666 SF, National Oilwell Varco with 42,296 SF, and BP 40,537 SF.
Rental Rates
The average citywide rental rate rose between quarters to $23.66 from $23.56 per square foot. The CBD Class A average quoted rental rate increased to $36.80 from $36.42 per square foot, while the suburban Class A average quoted rental rate decreased to $27.81 from $28.86 per square foot.
The CBD Class B average quoted rental rate decreased slightly to $23.61 from $23.81 per square foot, while the suburban Class B average quoted rental rate decreased to $18.54 from $19.05 per square foot between quarters. On a year-over-year basis the citywide average quoted rental rate increased by 4.2% to $23.66 from $22.70 per square foot.

British soul singer Sam Smith has had a breakout year: His collaboration with Disclosure finally caught on in America, and his debut solo album In the Lonely Hour turned into a surprise runaway success.
In a sure sign that he's made it into the upper echelons of pop stardom, Smith's rumored to have been tapped to sing the theme for the as-yet-untitled fourth James Bond movie starring Daniel Craig, due out next November. According to Page Six, he's in talks with series producer Barbara Broccoli about the gig, having supposedly beaten out Lana Del Rey for it.
Smith's been denying rumors about a Bond theme since the summer. His rep tells EW "it's not confirmed."

Samir Nasri, Luka Modric and Wesley Sneijder have all been linked to a move to United following Scholes's retirement.
Man United done with transfers this summer, says Ferguson
Sir Alex Ferguson confirmed Manchester United are not currently in the market for new summer signings and he is looking at the Old Trafford dressing room to provide the answer to Paul Scholes' retirement.
At various points in the summer, Samir Nasri, Luka Modric and Wesley Sneijder have all been linked with big-money moves to United.
However, Nasri and Modric are more stronger on the wish-list of Manchester City and Chelsea should they leave Arsenal and Tottenham respectively, whilst any deal to sign Sneijder apparently looks too expensive for Ferguson to sanction.
It means the United boss could end up going into the new campaign with the players already at his disposal, which would mean the likes of Anderson having to step up on the efforts of previous years.
"We are always looking for good quality players," said Ferguson after tonight's 3-1 win over Chicago Fire at Soldier Field.
"We started the season with the players we have and I am satisfied with that.
"We are not looking at the moment but we are looking at combinations of central midfielders now at the club."
Trailing at the interval, United needed to complete a second-half comeback to secure their win.
They were inspired by a magnificent goal from Wayne Rooney, who replaced Dimitar Berbatov at half-time and produced the perfect lob from Rio Ferdinand's lofted pass.
"It was a perfect ball from Ferdinand but it was a difficult chance to take with the goalkeeper rushing out and the defenders chasing back at him," observed Ferguson.
"It takes a good deal of skill to control in that position."
Rafael and Nani ensured United maintained their 100 per cent record ahead of the most testing couple of games of the tour.
The Red Devils tackle an MLS All-Stars team set to include David Beckham and Thierry Henry at Red Bull Arena on Wednesday before their Champions League final rematch with Barcelona in Washington next Saturday evening.
It should offer a more significant test for David de Gea, who, for all Chicago's threat, did not have much to do and, after a couple of viewings, Ferguson conceded had no chance with Cory Gibbs' opener.
"He was impressive," reflected the United boss of his £18million (Dh10.78m) summer recruit from Atletico Madrid.
"He is always handling shots and saving well. Technically he is very good.
"When they scored the first goal I thought he could have come out more but when I looked at it again he had absolutely no chance.
"Overall, he was great today."

Does anyone know a way to extract data from a Nexus 7 2013 without it being unlocked or rooted?
It is stuck in a bootloop, I think from a failed update. The tablet belongs to a family friend who has been using it as a usb device for months and it contains documents, photos and other important data.
I manually sideloaded updates to 4.4.2 but that also did not work. Is there anyway to extract data off this thing? I can access stock recovery and fastboot. I would even destroy the tablet if there was a way to take the chip out and copy the stuff to a computer,
Thanks everyone :-)

Shutdown PC Automatically with EasyShutdown
by Haris on September 7, 2008
in Tools, Windows XP
Many of you download large files from the Internet, and in countries like India and Pakistan where we don't have lightening fast Internet speeds, we have to keep our PCs on for long till the download finishes. My PC stays on whole night as I download a lot.
I have found this very small freeware that can shutdown your PC after a duration of specified minutes. EasyShutdown lets you instantly shutdown or restart your computer or you can delay it by a few minutes.
Once you lauch this app, it sits in your taskbar tray and will inform you once it reaches shutdown time. It can also force quit applications that cause problems while quiting.
If my file download time remains 45 minutes, I delay the auto shutdown by 60 minutes as you never know the exact (accurate) time when your download will finish. It's fast session locking and logging off through the EasyShutdown tray menu can prevent unauthorized access to your machine when your system is left unattended.
EasyShutdown requires Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 to run. It is compatible with both, Windows XP and Vista.

text: After waiting 2 months, and my doctor's office pulling the lab reports and faxing them to the endocrinologist with a note to call me.... Negative for Cushing's. Back to square one. I told my doctor's office that I want to go back to a neurologist to check for neuromuscular disorders because of the profound muscle weakness and muscle fatigue. But, I think I'm done searching for answers. I'm too tired and drained to keep doing this.

Wintergreen is truly a four-season resort, with everything for the outdoor activity buff: skiing, golf, tennis, hiking, horseback riding and much more. What better way to enjoy this fabulous vacation venue than in a gorgeous, custom-built Lindal Cedar private home (custom built by the owners in 2001) in the prestigious Devil's Knob Loop section on top of Wintergreen Mountain.

The Wintergarden Spa and Cliffhangar ski lift are a short walk, and the Devil's Knob Golf and Tennis Center is a short drive. The property backs up to the Wintergreen Foundation Nature Center, for an unobstructed panoramic view from all sides (including an eastward-facing 70 mile view).

Keywords: House
What an outstanding and lavish place this is. The owners, builders, architects, everyone involved, made sure this "cabin" had every luxury imaginable at your fingertips. Things most people would say, "Nah, we don't need that...", they said, "LET'S HAVE THAT". For instance: Individual heating units in each area of the home, each controlled separately. Jukebox/Ipod play system with very nice sound, both inside and outside the unit. Super large refrigerator. HOT TUB (our favorite). FOUR FULL BATHROOMS (2nd favorite), one in the master has a steam shower! There are way too many extras and thoughts that went into providing this rental to sit and list.
We were rained in, even with a tornado warning, the 2nd day of our ski trip, so we were stuck inside all day. Normally, this would be a big big bummer. But we had this HUGE lavish place with tons to take our minds off what we were missing and provide us with a slice of heaven instead. After our stay was over, we reflected how we really didn't miss that day of skiing so much, due to the comfort that this home provided.
The owner was very accommodating and accessible, and was happy to help with a couple of minor inquiries we had, as well as providing timely communication prior to the trip. We plan on returning to this unit in 2 years when we come back to Wintergreen for another week.
What a wonderful home! This has all the warmth of a family home and more...our own extended family had a very memorable stay here in Wintergreen. This was our third visit to the resort and by far a better location in prestigious Devils Knob and with sweeping views over the mountains making it the perfect picture for a morning sunrise from behind the floor to ceiling windows or indeed, on one of the many huge balconies outside.
The house has everything you would need or want, from fresh coffee to plentiful bar area. A seemingly limitless DVD collection, board games, a massive hot tub and epic indoor/ outdoor stereo system and at the end of your day, a luxurious steam shower (which I never wanted to leave!)and a selection of high quality mattresses to lay your head on!
There was no snow during our stay however the kids were fascinated watching the snow machines kick into gear while sipping hot chocolate at The Edge. The included Wintergreen resort passes were a huge help...we played tennis, swam, sauna & steamed and even had a little Spa time. We also took advantage of some of the fantastic hiking in the area which made for some awesome pictures with breathtaking landscapes - there is even a small trail that runs right around the house which our little ones loved.
This truly was a memorable stay for all of us made even better by the owner, Kathy. I don't think I have ever dealt with anyone so accommodating on vrbo (and we book at least 3 times a year)....she goes out of her way to make sure you have everything you need and is always available to discuss anything. Her instructions on how to use everything also make adapting to the house effortless - she is an absolute pleasure to deal with!
This is a fantastic house in a gorgeous environment!! Wintergreen is a ski resort/golf course nestled in the mountains of Virginia near Charlottesville. In the past I have stayed in the condos as well as a different house and always had a great experience. This house is even better! It is large house with a spectacular great room, well-appointed kitchen, spacious bedrooms, a loft, as well as a large family room. It also has a large, private hot tub out the back door and the views from the property are exquisite. There is more than enough private parking and it is easy to access. Wintergreen also has a fitness/spa that is one block from the house where you can access a gym, pools (indoor and outdoor), hot tubs, as well as get a massage. The owner is wonderful and very accommodating and couldn't have been easier to deal with. As much as my other stays were enjoyable, I would not consider staying elsewhere. I plan to return here and highly recommend this property.
Wonderful house. Very well established for entertaining. Thoughtful and caring owners. Very friendly and cooperative.
I really can't say enough about this rental - I went with eight girlfriends for a bachelorette getaway in the mountains - the home is GORGEOUS, the views are spectacular, the hot tub is great, we loved the kitchen, which was well-stocked and perfect for cooking/grilling our meals. It is a five minute walk from the Black Bear Cafe, which was great for morning lattes and snacks. There is so much to do nearby, including an amazing hike (Crabtree Falls) as well as horseback riding, which we did as a group at Montebello. But back to the rental - comfortable beds, great steam shower, THREE decks with amazing views...it was just perfect. Several of the girls in our group did spa treatments - the spa at Wintergreen is also very close to the cabin, and is gorgeous. The owner, Kathy, was extremely responsive to the few questions that I had for her, and was very obviously genuinely interested in making sure we enjoyed our stay. If I ever have the opportunity to return to that area (my group is mostly from New England), I would love to stay here again.
My friend and I needed a weekend away in the mountains. I found this fabulous, spectacular home that everything and more that we would need on VRBO. We didn't need to bring anything. They even had a coffee grinder. The owners are fantastic and friendly and a lot of fun to talk to when making the arrangements and after my stay. Their home is an unbelievable home away from home, only better. It was a beautiful time of year to visit the wineries and breweries too.
At Wintergreen Resort, Golf (one mountain top course & one valley course), Tennis center (indoor & outdoor courts), Spa & Fitness Center, Downhill Skiing Snowboarding, Nature Center, Summer Symphony Series, Indoor Pool, Lake with Water Trampoline, Paddleboats & Kayaks, Outdoor Adventure Center (Bungee Jumping, In-line Skating)
I require a $300.00 fully refundable security deposit to hold the booking; 100% of the rental fee due two weeks in advance of check-in

Hughes caught up in fan row
By Tom Adams
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Norwich's Andy Hughes is set to be probed by the FA following a dispute with fans.
Norwich City's Andy Hughes is set to be investigated by the Football Association following an altercation with his own supporters.
The midfielder reportedly became embroiled in an argument with Canaries fans following the final whistle of the 4-1 defeat to Burnley which cost former boss Nigel Worthington his job.
Whilst the police have neglected to act on the matter, The FA have launched a probe into the incident which could result in a disrepute charge for the 28-year-old.
"We have received the referee's report and have talked to the police," said an FA spokesman.
"We are now awaiting video evidence."
A spokesman for the Championship outfit confirmed that the club would also be looking closely at Hughes' actions before deciding what measures to take.
"We understand the police are not intending to take the matter any further and we will be reviewing the video evidence ourselves before deciding whether any further action will be taken," said a club spokesman.
Norwich are still without a manager following the exit of Worthington, and travel to QPR on Saturday in a bid to resurrect their league form.

Ahri Build
Middle Lane
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Hey everyone.
My name is Asio, I play on EUW, and welcome to my Ahri guide.
Ahri has been my favorite champion for a while now and i felt like making a guide, so here we are.
This guide is for both new players and experts.
Have fun reading it and I hope it will be useful to you.
Now "Let's have some real fun."
Pros / Cons
- Ult is useful for escaping and chasing
- Not squishy with this build
- Strong nuker
- Good farm with Q
- High sustain (Spell vamp)
- Charm and Rylai's will give her some CC.
- Item dependent
- Can't carry against fed enemies
- Needs a good early game to shine in mid-late game
- Vulnerable to CC
Essence Theft (Passive)
Ahri gains a charge of Essence Theft whenever one of her spells hits an enemy. This caps at 3 charges per spell cast. Upon reaching 9 charges, Ahri's next spell will have 35% bonus spell vamp.
This passive can save your life in the laning phase.
It can hold you in the lane for a very long time. Combine it with your Q on an incoming minion wave for full potential.
Orb of Deception
Ahri sends out an orb in a line in front of her and then pulls it back, dealing magic damage on the way out and true damage on the way back.
Very good attack because of it's true damage, and has a good range.
The enemy will be scared of you if you manage to hit them with this.
Ahri releases three fox-fires to surround her for up to 5 seconds. After a short delay after cast, they will target nearby enemies, prioritizing champions, to deal magic damage to them. Additional fox-fires that hit the same target will only deal 50% damage.
This attack will help you out later in the game, because of it's AP ratio on the max damage(+0.76 per Ability power)
When combined with your Charm it will be easy to hit all three of them.
Ahri will blow a kiss that travels in a line in front of her. It will deal magic damage and charm the first enemy it encounters, forcing them to walk harmlessly towards her, while being slowed by 50% for the duration.
I love this attack, and soon you will too.
It's like a taunt without them dealing any damage for 2 seconds, and it makes it really easy for you to hit all of your attacks.
And to make it even better, it has a nice range.
In teamfights make sure you use it on the enemy carry, they won't attack for 2 seconds and your team can easily kill him/her.
Spirit Rush
Ahri dashes towards the cursor and fires essence bolts, dealing magic damage to up to 3 nearby enemies, prioritizing champions. In the next 10 seconds, Spirit Rush can be cast two additional times before going on cooldown. Each enemy can only be hit once per dash.
Your ult can be a life-saver or killer, depending on how you want to use it.
You can use it to escape ganks, chase a running enemy, jump over walls, deal huge damage in a teamfight and so on.
Remember that when this is on cooldown you won't have any escape moves, except for flash.
And her ult costs 100 mana on the first cast, the next 2 casts are free.
Skill Sequence
I prefer to have Orb of Deception early because it is has the highest damage and the lowest AP ratio, and because of the synergy with her passive.
I max Charm and Fox-Fire after that.
Don't max your charm last, it will greatly affect your ability to hit your combos and gank, because of the cooldown and length.
And ofcourse, level your ult whenever it is possible.
Personal favorites
Greater Mark of Magic Penetration
The only viable reds in my opinion. You need magic penetration for enemies with magic resist runes and masteries. (early game)
Greater Seal of Scaling Mana Regeneration or Greater Seal of Replenishment
You need mana regen. I prefer mana regen per level, because it surpasses the flat ones at level 6 and before that you won't run out of mana that quickly. But you can always go for flat mana regen if you prefer that.
Greater Glyph of Scaling Ability Power
Ability power per level. For that extra damage when you are leveling your W.
It's not that much but you will notice it, trust me.
Greater Quintessence of Ability Power
Flat Ability power. Some early damage can't be wrong, can it? Together with the glyphs it will give you a nice amount of AP.
Optional choices
Greater Seal of Armor or Greater Seal of Defense
If you think you don't need the mana regen, or if you don't have them yet, you can pick armor for some more defense.
Greater Glyph of Magic Resist or Greater Glyph of Scaling Magic Resist
Same as the Seals, if you don't need the AP, or if you don't have them yet, you can pick magic resist for some more defense.
Greater Glyph of Ability Power
If you want the extra damage from the start and not want to wait for it, you can pick these runes.
Greater Glyph of Cooldown Reduction
With 9 of these runes you will have 6% cooldown reduction and with your boots it's 21%.
You will do a bit less damage but you can spam your skills more often.
Greater Glyph of Scaling Cooldown Reduction
Same as the Glyphs of focus but this will give you 8% at level 18. With your boots it's 23%.
Not much of a difference but you can use these if you want.
Greater Quintessence of Health
Flat Health. Gives a total of 78 health from the start. If you want more health you should pick these.
Greater Quintessence of Magic Penetration
Magic penetration. Good choice, early game this can sometimes be more effective than flat AP.
Especially against low magic resist champions.
You probably think that my masteries are weird.
But, if you think about it, they aren't that weird at all.
Ofcourse you can use your own masteries if you want.
You don't have to read this part if you don't want too. It just explains why I use these masteries.
10 Offense
Mental Force 4/4
4 extra ability, not bad.
Summoner's Wrath 1/1
It's not really necessary but you need 1 more point too get cooldown reduction.
Sorcery 4/4
4% cooldown reduction, a bit more cooldown reduction can't be bad at all.
Arcane Knowledge 1/1
10% Magic penetration. That's what we are here for! Because of this mastery we can buy boots of lucidity without having to worry about magic penetration.
9 Defense
Resistance 2/3and
Hardiness 2/3
4 Armor and Magic resist. For that bit more defense.
Durability 4/4
6 Health per level (108 at level 18). It will give you a bit of health, you won't really notice it without the next mastery though.
Veteran's Scars 1/1
30 Health. 30 more Health at lvl 1, with Durability it is 36 on lvl 1 and 90 at lvl 10. It can safe your life.
11 Utility
Improved Recall 1/1
1 sec less teleport time. Can make a difference in experience, and saved me a few times. (Karthus ult for example)
Expanded Mind 3/3
12 mana per level. More mana for your Archangel's Staff.
You can pick Good Hands if you prefer that though.
Summoner's Insight 1/1
Reduces Flash cooldown by 15 seconds. Especially with the flash nerf a while ago, this can be very good.
Swiftness 3/4
1.5% movement speed. Ahri has a slow base movement speed. This will help a little bit.
Runic Affinity 1/1
Increases the duration of neutral buffs by 20%. If your jungler is kind enough to give you the blue buff you can dominate your lane for a long time.
Transmutation 2/3
2% Spell Vamp. With your passive this will be very useful, you get spell vamp with every attack and after 9 attacks you get even more. This will help your sustain in lane.
Summoner Spells
Just like your ult it can be used to chase and escape.
Even after the nerf it's, in my opinion, still one of the best summoner spells.
Most useful in early and mid game. The damage is really good for when you lack a bit of damage.
Late game it is useful against a fiddle, mundo and all other champs that have attacks that regenerate health.
Good choices
If you pick this, pick it instead of flash. I don't say it's better or worse. It's a matter of preference.
Really useful to get back in your lane.
Use it too gank lanes by teleporting on wards or chrooms etc.
Really strong spell. It removes ALMOST ALL CC on you. Useful when getting ganked or focused in a teamfight.
Note: It doesn't remove ults like Warwick's Infinite Duress or Malzahar's Nether Grasp
Can be good but not my favorite
Reduces their damage, and with the upgrade in masteries it reduces their armor and magic resist by 10, which will make you deal more damage.
If you spam your skills way to much early game this can be really useful to you. But after Rod of Ages and Archangel's it will be useless.
This is just one of the many ways.
I will give you guys some examples of good items and when to get them.
( )
These items will cover everything you need. Cooldown reduction, mana, mana regen, health, AP.
Important items
Rylai's Crystal Scepter
You need this item for health, ap and the slow. The slow will really help you out when chasing .
Note: All 3 Fox-Fires are counted as singe target spells, which means that they slow for 35%.
Rabadon's Deathcap
A must have for all AP carries. The passive is really helpful and it gives a good amount of AP.
Archangel's Staff
Combined with Rod of Ages, which gives a lot of mana, and Rabadon, which gives 30% more AP, this will give you a really good amount of AP. And it will end your mana and mana regen problems.
Will of the Ancients
Really good when combined with your passive, it will give you a total of 55% spell vamp.
I don't get this until very late in the build but you can get it whenever you feel like you need it.
Situational items
Void Staff
When your opponents are stacking magic resistance and you can't kill them anymore.
If you need this buy it instead of Will of the Ancients or Archangel's staff.
Banshee's Veil
When your opponents have a hard nuker that is focusing you every teamfight.
It will save you from a hard nuke and can win teamfights if the opponent messes up.
Kinda like Banshee's Veil but this is more for a Karthus ult.
Mejai's Soulstealer
When you get kills as easy as minions. Will give a great amount of AP when fully stacked + more Cooldown Reduction. But you will lose a lot of AP when you die.
Sorcerer's Shoes
If you don't have the Magic penetration runes/masteries. You need magic penetration and this is an easy and cheap way to get it, you have less cooldown reduction though.
Quicksilver Sash
When the enemy has a Malzahar, Warwick, Poppy. That is focusing you.
Unlike Cleanse, it does remove nearly all debuffs including:
Ignite, Children of the Grave, Nether Grasp, Paranoia, Destiny, Infinite Duress, Hemoplague and almost all Damage Over Time abilities ( Poison Trail and Blaze for example).
Note: It will remove the suppression of Nether Grasp but you will still be damaged until leaving it's range.
Note:Remember that Quiksilver Sash does not give you any lingering resistance after use like Cleanse. If you use it to remove a slow/stun/etc, you can immediately be stunned, slowed, suppressed, etc. again.
Farming is really easy for ahri in mid to late game.
But in early game you will have to do it with lasthitting only, and it will take a while until you master Ahri's attack animation.
Here are some tips for farming with your skills.
Orb of Deception is an easy skill to farm with.
You throw it in an incoming minion wave and you will damage them enough to lasthit them or they are already death.
Isn't really a farming skill but when combined with your Q it can clear a minion wave pretty fast.
Try not to push too hard in the laning-phase or you will get ganked very fast.
So, lasthitting in early game and use your skills in mid and late game.
You can play Ahri in mid and side lanes, depending on your team.
When you are in mid it is your job to farm, farm, farm and kill
When laning you should be careful when playing against these champs:
More will come soon
I always have a hard time against a Kassadin. His combos really hurt.
I suggest asking your jungler for an early gank so he can't flash away with his ult. When you kill him early you will have the advantage later in the game.
Don't come to close for him too use his Q E combo.
I don't see him often but when I see him he is as annoying as always.
The only thing you can do against him is to avoid his Noxian Corrosive Charge.
Don't stand under his tower when he has his ult or he will use it.
Her nuke is stronger than yours, she can escape your combos with her Distortion.
Wait for her to use her Distortion and attack after the second part of it has been used.
Try to stay out of her range and focus on lasthitting.
He has better sustain than you. And after level 7 you need a really good gank to get him out of the lane. With the recent nerf it is easier but still hard.
Harras him as much as possible before he is level 7 and kill him when it's possible.
Be happy that you don't see a good Cass often. Her combo is REALLY deadly.
When she hits you with one of her poisons she can spam her Twin Fang and you are death.
If she hits get out of range as soon as possible. If you are confident that you have a higher damage output you can stay and kill her, but don't run when you get low, because you will die anyway, at least try to take her with you.
More will come soon.
Your job is to focus the enemy squishy champs.
In teamfights you want to stay at the back of your team.
When your tank initiated a fight, and when their CC is used, jump in with your ult and go to the back of the enemy team to kill their squishy champs.
If you get focused from the start of the fight use your ult to get out and get back in as soon as they stopped chasing you.
Okay, you are done reading my guide. :D
Try to mix around with the item build so it gets perfect for your playstyle.
The idea of making this guide was in my mind for a long time and now it's finally here.
I hope that it was useful to you, ratings and comments are appreciated.
Ahri related patch notes
I won't put all changes in here but only the buffs/nerfs and important bug fixes.

Cooldown between casts increased to 1 second from 0.75.
Cooldown increased to 110/95/80 seconds from 90/80/70.

Rites of Passage Pg 46

Chapter: Book 13 "Rites Of Passage"
Trekker has been a great read so far. I love the characters and the artwork. I was always curious back when I saw ads for Trekker in the comics I was reading. I should have taken the bait – this is better than whatever I was collecting at the time.

I do not have much information, but I believe this event was held in Vaux-sur-Sûre, Belgium. What a great collection of vintage military Jeeps and other vehicles! I love the 6×6 Willys Jeep! Photos are from the US Militaria Forum while a nod goes out to Ewillys.com for the heads up on the event.

My Last Post!
- Mar 10, 2014
This has been a fun experiment, and I have loved writing for you. However, I've realized that I only have so much time in the day, and that I'd rather spend my time writing for Urbanette Magazine. In case you haven't see it, Urbanette is the only magazine in history to be 100% volunteer and give 100% to charity, and have 100% unique content.
It's been a lot of fun, and maybe someday I'll pick it up again… but, for now, you can see the articles I've written here.
Love, Hilary
Fostering Cats and Dogs to Save a Life
- Jan 13, 2014
This past weekend Mike and I volunteered to help The Animal Project. They trap stray cats/kittens and get them the medical attention they need, then they try to find them a home. They put cats and kittens up for adoption every Saturday from 2pm to 6pm at the PetCo on 92nd and Broadway. These kitties need love, so stop by and play with them!
This is a gorgeous kitty who's about 5 months old, waiting for someone to come and love her:
If you have space in a room of your home, it would help save lives if you would take one or two cats in until they can find a home. Read more
A New & Fun Holiday Tradition
- Dec 24, 2013
So… Mike and I were in the shower this morning, talking about our charitable gift giving tradition, and I admitted that, even though I love it, part of me still feels like we should have some sort of gift for Christmas.
Soooo here's what we came up with: each Christmas Eve, we'll go on a little treasure hunt, wearing Santa hats, of course (this year we couldn't find any last minute, so that part we'll start next year). We'll finish at about 4pm, in time for afternoon tea at a fancy hotel (this is the best deal ever – for $7 or $8 a pot, you can sit and hang out for hours, but make sure to arrive between 3pm and 4:30pm). We'll set a spending limit (an amount that allows us to buy something nice, but not crazy) and only allow one item each. We'll walk around Madison Ave and see what we can get for that amount.
A great bonus: this'll take all the pressure out of having to find something the other person will like, since we're picking our own gift.
Got Pets? You'll Want to Read This.
- Nov 20, 2013
Adopting my cats was, next to marrying Mike, the single action that has brought me the most happiness through my life. However, if you live in NYC and have pets, then you know that vet bills can be craaaazzzzyyyy expensive. Like, nutty expensive. Think $1000 to have teeth cleaned, $5,000 to $10,000 to have bladder stones removed, and hundreds for a general "wellness" yearly checkup. Yikes!
Well, I did my exhaustive research and found out how to avoid this. But first, some important stuff you should know…
5 Steps to Finding Lasting Love in NYC (& Why It's Been Hard)
- Nov 18, 2013
I was at a cocktail party on Friday evening with my friend Andrea Syrtash (the real-life Carrie Bradshaw), and had a conversation that echoed what I have discussed with so many friends living in lower Manhattan. The topic: Why it's hard to find love while living in downtown New York City.
Best story ever?
- Nov 15, 2013
I was out for dinner last Friday night at the Waverly Inn with my husband and another friend. It was a great scene, a who's who of the fashion & media elite. Rumors have swirled that the Waverly had lost it's cache, but it certainly seemed to be it's normal celebrity-heavy self that night. We walked through the maze of closely aligned tables, nearly butt bumping everyone along the way. Which is saying something, because I've got a pretty small tooshie, LOL.
It felt so nice being there. The fire was lit, the room felt warm, and the ivy on the brick walls added a lovely feeling of being outdoors. As always, the food and wine were amazing, and the young modelesque boy who served us was very charming. The night had been amazing up until that point, but the best part of the night was yet to come. I can't recall what we were talking about, but my husband began telling two inspiring stories that had me and our friend teary by the end. Read more

Ok, so where do I start? Halloween used to be one of my favorite holidays, but since moving to the Upper East Side… well… not so much. Besides the fact that you've got hordes of crazy kids from ages 4-14 (isn't 14 a little old to be trick-or-treating??) running all over the neighborhood, they're all high on sugar like cracked-out zombies. Instead of brains, it's brownies they crave. Their poor parents!
You can see these poor bastards shuffling along behind their children with a "kill me now" look on their faces. You could even forgive them for putting sleeping pills in their Kool Aid. I know, I sound like the Grinch that stole Halloween, right? But this year, that was the least of my problems. Read more
Update: The NYPD to Arrest Banksy!
- Oct 22, 2013
Last week I told you about the amazing art truck that Banksy made, which is touring NYC right now. Well, the NYPD and Mayor Bloomberg are *not* impressed. So not impressed, in fact, that they decided to [attempt to] deprive New Yorkers of Banksy's incredible street art. If you can believe it, they've put out a warrant for his arrest and have a "big" task force wasting tax-payer dollars trying to hunt him down so they can "out" him and book him.
The Differences Between NYC and Toronto
- Oct 16, 2013
When I tell people I'm from Canada, I'm often asked what Toronto is like. To the naked eye, it's not all that different. It's got great restaurants, Broadway and off-Broadway theater, a subway system, a couple of airports, lots of tall glass buildings, and everything else you'd expect the biggest city in Canada to have.
But then you look a little closer, and you notice that, oddly, the streets are really clean. Why? Because the vast majority of Canadians subscribe to the philosophy that they share the space with other people, and they're not the center of the universe, so therefore they should hold on to their trash until they find a garbage bin.
Here are a few more examples of typical Torontonian behavior that I experienced during this trip: Read more
Banksy's NYC Art Truck: Slaughtering Ignorance
- Oct 13, 2013
I'm VERY excited because one of my favorite contemporary artists, Banksy, is in NYC for the month of October. If you caught The Colbert Report (my favorite TV show) last week, you'd already know that he's in town. He'll be adorning random buildings with his famous (and valuable) "street art" (which instantly make that part of the wall worth millions, so don't be surprised if you see big chunks of buildings suddenly missing!)
One of the main reasons I love Banksy is because his art carries a message, and is usually tied to an ethical question. His latest is no different in this department. Check out this video to see the truck, and the 'animals' (and their puppeteers), in action:
I was browsing through the YouTube comments, and about 1 out of 50 comments seemed to 'get' it. For the other 49, the point was not only completely lost, but they seemed to think that the best way to react is to mock animal suffering, profess their intent to immediately go eat some bacon, and then ignorantly state that animals either don't have feelings or aren't intelligent enough to warrant our compassion. Yeah, right on dudes. Smart. :-S
Believe it or not, people used to think that babies don't feel pain. Really. Read more
A Princess and a Party
- Oct 05, 2013
New York is a magical place. There are very few cities where you can have such diverse, random and wonderful experiences. Thursday night was a perfect example.
We started out the night at Cinderella on Broadway. I wasn't sure what to expect, after all, I've never been a big fan of Disney. Even when I was a child I thought that the concept of being 'saved' by marrying a wealthy man was a dangerous message to send out to young girls. So I was happy to see that the modern Cinderella has several twists I didn't remember… Read more
Centers of the Universe?
- Oct 04, 2013
New York City is home to some of the most influential people in the world. It also attracts a large number of them from abroad. What's interesting is how their importance seems to rub off on the rest of us.
Walking down any busy street in Manhattan, you get the feeling that everyone is operating with a heavy dose of self-importance, on their way to some important meeting. It's like NASCAR without the cars. Walking in this city is a contact sport, and you'll get run over if you're not careful.
New York – Shrunk
- Sep 27, 2013
I was poking around on the web today, looking for cool stuff to share, and I came upon this really neat short film about New York City. It was made out of 35,000 still photos over 5 days. It kind of reminded me of the feeling of being in an airplane and looking down at all the little miniature-looking houses and cars. It always makes me feel like such a super tiny piece of a much, much bigger picture. Travel in general is good for that, and I think it's healthy. Keeps it all in perspective.

Holly Morris is executive producer and writer/director of the award-winning primetime PBS documentary series Adventure Divas. She is the former editorial director of Seal Press and published two fishing anthologies, A Different Angle and Uncommon Waters. Her writing has appeared in the New York Times Book Review, Ms., Outside, abcnews.com and numerous anthologies. When she's not writing, producing television documentaries, or fishing, Morris is a correspondent for television series such as Lonely Planet Treks in America, Treks in a Wild World, Globe Trekkers, and Outdoor Investigations. Her newest book is Adventure Divas: Searching the Globe for a New Kind of Heroine (Random House/Villard 2005).
How did you get started traveling?
I travelled for a year in a blue van with my family across Eastern and Western europe and then Soviet Union in the '70s. I suppose that imprinted travel ( thanks to the parents). There was post-collegiate travel — and then I travelled vicariously as editorial director at Seal Press where, among other titles, I edited the 'Adventura' imprint — a line of books about women and travel and adventure.
How did you get started writing? How did you get started in film and television?
Writing makes me happy, but, like yoga, even though I know it's good for me I have to MAKE myself do it over and over again. I guess I started writing professionally via my publishing career. TV. Well. I wanted to take my ideas from publishing to a medium with exponential impact — TV — what I felt was an under utilized yet powerful medium.
What do you consider your first "break" as a travel writer?
I started publishing essays in anthologies. Not much money involved with that – but good exposure and a way to introduce yourself to the magazines (a first step in writing for them).
As a traveler and fact/story-gatherer, what is your biggest challenge on the road?
You've gotta take care of yourself physically/spiritually instead of always — 100% of the time — rolling with serendipity. I'm a big fan of courting the unexpected, but if you're nine months out, lost track of your friends and haven't exercised a lick — your creative well will run dry. Gotta keep those spirits up and take a break now and then. It will keep you fresh.
What is your biggest challenge in the writing/producing process?
I find having to deal with the financial end of things distracting, not much fun, and contrary to the spirit of the road.
Do you do other work to make ends meet? If so, what kind of work?
Yes. In recent years, I've been a television correspondent/host for several different broadcasters.
What travel authors or books might you recommend and/or have influenced you?
Actually I tend to read less travel and more fiction/nonfiction of the region I'm going to. If you can understand a place's storytellers than you're a long way toward telling a good, representative story yourself.
What advice and/or warnings would you give to someone who is considering going into travel writing and/or television?
Have a very flexible significant other or be prepared to go without.
What is the biggest reward of life as a travel journalist?
I am constantly renewed and spirited into action by the people I meet. And I am never bored.
11) Is there a particular challenge in capturing the essence of a place for television versus for print?
Learning to tell stories through images, rather than words, was a challenge for me. Also, the inherently chaotic nature of television production is sometimes at odds with the more thoughtful/meditative energy it takes to capture 'the essence of place.' I feel the print medium fosters a more lingering, stewed thought process that can capture the more abstract notions.

Although George is from the Cumberland area, he has spent most of his adult life travelling the world as a career military officer. This has given him the opportunity to observe history and other cultures from a unique perspective. A graduate of Allegany College, Frostburg State University, and Auburn University, he has earned a Master of Science degree in Political Science. As a self taught artist, with interests in both sculpture and oil painting, his works could best be classified as Pop Surrealism. Invoking a level of reality while maintaining simplicity in representation, his paintings capture emotion through the use of bright colors. His sculptures conversely find emotion through shape, avoiding the use of color for realism. Color in sculpting is used to set a mood or tone during interpretation. Both, paintings and sculpture, look for aspects in life that are either attractive or patently in the absurd. It is George's belief that, although art can be evocative, it should be honest and, when possible, elicit a smile. His most recent works are what he refers to as "layered abstract," a combination of abstract and surrealist art.
George has a son who is serving as an Officer in the U.S. Army and his wife Beth is a Registered Yoga Teacher. The Lanigan's reside in Short Gap, WV.

Google Ate Blogger
Apparently I need a Google account to continue using blogger. Not too sure what all is involved in this. I don't really like Google, and stopped using them a few years ago because of their involvement in writing the censorship and spy software to police the Chinese internet. Whatever happened to "don't be evil"? That pissed me off, so I'll have to figure out what to do now.
