Over the course of any given year, we have the opportunity to produce a wide variety of sports and entertainment events across the country. Many stand alone as the headline festivity, but in the case of large ones like the NCAA Final Four, we are involved in planning "events within the event" that elevate the fan experience and sponsor activation across the entire weekend.
Over the course of the last week in the North Texas region of Dallas and Arlington, there was much more going on than basketball games between the top college programs in the country. Turner Sports and the NCAA have designed a mega experience that is appealing to fans of all ages and demographics.
For the basketball fans, the Tip-Off Tailgate presented by Infiniti took place in the shadow of AT&T Stadium and was included in the price of the game ticket. This outdoor festival included basketball interactive areas, chalk talks with the college game's top coaches and the Capital One Quicksilver Stage, featuring team pep rallies and musical acts like Kid Rock and Dierks Bentley.
Meanwhile, 20 miles east in Dallas was the March Madness Music Festival, a 3-day concert series that took place at Reunion Park (site of the 1986 Final Four). This free concert series appealed to an entirely different demographic of locals and concert goers, presenting a unique activation opportunity for the NCAA's three Corporate Champions – Capital One, Coca-Cola and AT&T. Each of the three brands hosted fan interactive areas, complete with the Capital One Ferris Wheel and Coca-Cola Social Lounge, as high profile artists like Bruce Springsteen, Tim McGraw and The Killers entertained on stage.
Across the street from Reunion Park was Bracket Town presented by Capital One, the NCAA's ultimate fan fest with over 350,000 square feet of interactive space to engage and entertain fans of all ages. Similar in size and scope to NBA All-Star Jam Session, Bracket Town provides an opportunity to activate each of the NCAA's corporate partners in a customized manner.
In addition to the Tip-Off Tailgate, March Madness Music Festival and Bracket Town, there were several other events that highlighted the play on the court, including Intersport's annual State Farm Slam Dunk & 3-Point Championships and the NABC's Reese's College All-Star Game. All of these events, combined with the Final Four games themselves, provide an experience that is well worth the price of admission and gives fans a reason to choose attending in person versus watching at home on the couch.

The squatters, aged between 65 and 89, have been camping out in the villa since Friday in protest at local district council plans to shut it down. Neighbours have been bringing them food parcels to keep them going.

But councillor Jens-Holger Kirchner said the district authorities had no option but to shut the building down. "The building does not have disabled access, and it would cost €1.5 million to renovate it. We don't have that money," he said.

The state-owned building is now to be sold, and the pensioners have been told the clubs and courses on offer there will be moved to other public buildings, like local kindergartens.

"For us it's all about the community," said 71-year-old Peter Klotsche, who is sleeping in a camp-bed in the bridge room.

"My grandchildren are really proud of their granddad!" 74-year-old Herrman Hering told the Bild newspaper.

None of the protesters have ever occupied a building before, and they have called in a lawyer to discuss their options.

The villa where the social club is housed used to belong to Erich Mielke, Minister of State Security in communist East Germany from 1957 and 1989 - a position that made him head of the infamous Stasi secret police.

Here it is, almost the end of January and I'm finally getting around to posting my 2013 favorites. The images I chose are not necessarily my best of the year, they're the ones I like the best for one reason or another. My favorites are the ones that ended up satisfying the vision in my mind and spark a memory of the experience and moment, mostly from my personal (rather than commercial) work. I tried to create challenges for myself photographically incorporating some new techniques and ideas. Sometimes they worked, sometimes not so much. January
A foggy morning. The river. Quiet. Aside from the location that is peaceful, unspoiled and representative of my head clearing escapes, this panorama is six frames, that I was able to merge them all successfully is why it's a favorite. Panoramas are a specialty of mine born out of a desire for super wide large format not available for me with equipment alone...Click image to view large.
Another panorama, two frames.I couldn't choose just one from that morning.
Nesting Eagles. In the wild, in the woods. Doing what eagles do. It's not Alaska, we don't have a lot of eagles, 20 or so residents, maybe a couple hundred during migration season over a 20+ square miles lake...It's a rare opportunity that I have to be close to the nests and observe. December through April is nesting/breeding season and it's necessary to maintain a non-intrusive distance so a decent shot is always a favorite...
I was doing a commercial job out of town commuting a couple hours each day for the week. I took advantage of the drive and planned a few alternate routes on the secondary roads for exploration to stop along the way if I wanted. I saw this farm one day and stopped on my way home. Picture perfect rural farmland. Yeah, another panorama, 3 frames. Click image to view large.
And one of my first successful (imo) forays into texture layering.
Everything in one shot. Sunrise, fog, spring, my favorite place on the lake, I can't remember if this is 3 or 4 frames that make up the panorama. It wasn't a favorite at first. I printed it four feet wide for a show and fell in love with the image as it came off the printer. Click image to view large.
I'm lucky enough to have access to a couple bald eagle's nests. This is one of the parents, the chick was in the nest nearby. I have a lot of favorites from this nest, the parent eagles were very vocal and boisterous and made (somewhat) easy work of capturing them. I don't have a ton of super telephoto lenses so when I can get a decent shot of an eagle in the wild it's always a favorite. They take my breath away and leave me in awe of nature. Always.
I'm a little obsessed with bald eagles. On a whim, I drove to Waynesboro, Virginia for the river festival and the 5th hatchday celebration for Buddy, the ambassador eagle for the Wildlife Center of Virginia..This is my favorite portrait of him. Read more about Buddy.
A rainy day, my cat as subject. Gotta have a shot of my cat. <3
I knew there would be fog. A 3 frame panorama. Perfect morning. Mind clearing quiet before settling into the days work. Click image to view large.
I did a shoot at one of the oldest antebellum plantations still around the area. This is one of my favorites from the main house interior. It represents everything about the rich history of the plantation for me. Read more about the plantation & more from my shoot
I started a long term project. I had a vision for portraits I wanted to begin exploring. Sort of a glamour in the environment kind of thing, people out of their environment dropped into nature. Using textures to further enhance the images...Some have worked, some haven't. These are a few of my favorites from those first of the series shoots.
This one wasn't planned, I had walked up the hill to check out the location, on my way back called out and snapped this one. Turned out to be one of my most favorite.
Another model who was totally willing to satisfy my whims. The Ascension
Another portrait shoot. I love this for a lot of reasons. The model completely went along with my every whim, was willing to try anything and the resulting images were exactly what I was trying to achieve...
A great shot technically? Not at all. My birthday was supposed to be a leisurely quest for bald eagles and nature with a friend and fellow photographer. It turned into a rescue of a great blue heron caught up in fishing line on the river. That my friend was willing to wade in to the river to free the bird and it was safely returned to the wild was the best present ever. More about this rescue over on my Facebook.
Raptors, rehabilitation and release. I have a ton of respect for the folks who rescue and rehab wildlife. There's nothing like watching these amazing creatures go back to the wild.
An annual street arts festival. I'm always in awe of dancers. Joy in their movement.
Fog on the lake at sunrise and an egret...I like the mood of this but it represents more for me - a fun morning shoot with a new found photographer friend. A documentary photographer, somewhat unaccustomed to the woods, he was breaking out of his comfort zone hiking through unfamiliar dark woods at dawn...a good time sharing my favorite spot.
Another that represents time with friends and exploring with fellow photographers. A 2 frame panorama, it's also an image that was successful experimentally, layering with textures. Click image to view large.
One from an ongoing project. A promotional series for a jazz vocalist that includes some live performance work. This was an exceptional performance, she has an amazing soulful, sultry voice and I just love this image of her.
I worked on a collaboration with six other photographers shooting the fair. This was more about the collaboration and getting to work with some great artists than the shot itself. It was a departure from my norm and forced me outside my comfort zone. I chose this shot because I like the motion and it also makes me feel the chaotic atmosphere of the fair. Read more about the fair shoot
Another not so technically great shot or anything special for that matter. I picked it because it represents a day out on the lake with my sister, hiking, experimenting and just enjoying hanging out with her and the last of the fall colors.
Early in the month I did a more formal shoot for the Jazz singer. My favorite of her, moody like the songs she performs, rich like the texture of her voice, thoughtful, calm like her personality.
Shooting early Christmas morning has become sort of a ritual for me over the years, dawn, before the rest of the house is awake I sneak out, coffee in one hand, camera in the other in search of whatever is over the next hill. This year I headed out in the cold and found an old abandoned farm. This was one of my favorites as soon as I clicked the shutter. I think it's the unknown story that lies behind that door.
So, there you have it. I have a lot more favs from the year but had to limit it somehow! Hope you enjoyed!

I've got a pack of Ajitas Vege Chips in front of me. The flavour is 'Tasty cheese' The back of the packet says in large writing no hidden nasties. I'm a little confused as the ingredient list includes 'yeast extract' isn't this a nicer way of says MSG? - I'm very disappointed. The plain packet no longer states GM free either (Australia)

Calendars 5 makes very good use of the iPhone 5 screen area, and offers a list view of your daily appointments something like the iOS Calendar app used to offer until iOS 7's redesign. Lots of folk I know loved the list view; with Calendars 5, you can have it back, and in a visually intuitive form that shows color coding for each event to match the calendar, as well as a "slider" at the bottom of the scree showing your position in the current week, for reference. Daily, weekly, and monthly views provide detail and bird-eye views of your calendar, as needed.
Whilst the iPhone version provides a number of advantages over the native iOS 7 calendar app (some of which will be mentioned shortly), my favorite iteration of Calendars 5 is on the iPad, where it really has room to shine thanks to the large screen format. I love the day view, which shows a rolling list along the left side, and the hourly calendar on the right, along with the current time displayed as a line across the timeline. Individual events show the scheduled time (e.g., under my event entitled "Work", the blue event box also shows the times scheduled, 8:00 - 17:00). Recurring events display a small circular arrow within the event box, providing an immediate visual cue. A date slider along the bottom of the screen shows two weeks worth of dates between which you slide. On the iPhone, the list and day views are separate due to the limited screen area.
The week view on both the iPad and the iPhone cleverly indicate that events are scheduled before or after the actively visible screen area with little arrow icons in the color of the calendar on which events are scheduled, to make sure you don't overlook something that is scheduled later in the day. In the same manner as the day view, the week view has a slider across the bottom through which you can scroll through the weeks and choose which one to view. Ditto for the month and year views. The month view looks fairly similar to the native iOS app, but the year view shows each day color coded as to how busy it is: white for days with nothing scheduled, yellow, orange, and red for progressively busier days. This is great to get a bird's eye view of the year and see when you're booked out, at a glance.
My absolutely favorite feature is the natural language input method employed (optional to use). Don't get me wrong: I think the sliders and wheel metaphors in iOS are great and handy and all. But sometimes it's easier to just type "Meet Jim at Paradise Bakery tomorrow at 13:00" and have it automatically know the date, time, and location, as well as the title of the event. If you're a fast typist, this may be the easiest way to add an event to the calendar--much the way that advanced typists can do with their keyboard using shortcuts a task for which many would prefer a mouse. Of course, dictation (on those devices supporting it) works as well, so you can just speak your event into existence.
The task list integrates with iCloud's Reminders, so you can stay synced between your iDevices and your Mac's Reminder list. The primary advantage is that both tasks and calendar events show up in one app, giving you an idea of how busy your day is, when you've got due dates assigned to your reminders or tasks.
Other intuitive features include drag and drop for events and tasks, the ability to send SMS reminders and custom alerts for events. Event invitations can be sent from within Calendars 5 as well.
Calendars 5 has a nice, iOS 7-inspired design that looks sharp and crisp. I am a fan and enjoy using it daily. You will too.

The History of the Zorzi Family, 1460-Present
The Zorzi Group gathers the experience of many generations in the stone business. It grows from the talented work of two families, the Zorzis and the Crescinis, both with roots in the natural stone history of Italy, in the town of Sant'Ambrogio di Valpolicella near Verona.
Official documentation by the city hall of Sant'Ambrogio in Valpolicella (Italy) and by the center for the history of the Valpolicella region, confirms and provides important facts in the volume, "Marmi e Lapicidi di Sant'Ambrogio in Valpolicella dall'eta Romana all'eta` Napoleonica. Ricerca storica di Pierpaolo Brugnoli & Alli,edited in Verona May 1999" (translation: Marbles and Lapicidi of Sant'Ambrogio in Valpolicella from the Roman time to the Napoleon time, a historic research by Pierpaolo Brugnoli & Alli).
This historic account was made possible by the diligent research done by the Center of documentation for the History of Valpolicella and the research department at the city hall of Sant'Ambrogio in Valpolicella.
Quoting from the historical text, "The Zorzis are without doubt one of the most considerable families among those that brought about a large number of experts for the excavation, handcrafting and dealing of marble from the Sant'Ambrogio area." Chapter 154 page 355 "(The Zorzi in the fifth century: Giorgio son of Gaspare, founder of the lineage.).
Some milestone dates in our family history:
1460: Founder of the family is the marble craftsman Giorgio, son of Gaspare. Giorgio's maternal grandfather, Enrico, is a marble master craftsman, who names his grandson universal heir in his testament dated October 10, 1460. Therefore, Giorgio is descendant from a group of marble craftsmen natives of the town Campione in the Lombardia region, North Italy, and settles in Sant'Ambrogio di Valpolicella at the beginning of the fifth century. Giorgio has three sons, Adamo, Antonio and Bernardino who live in the house – shop – laboratory of the grandfather Enrico.
1482: Giorgio moves to the city of Verona in the S. Marco district.
1489: Giorgio's son Bernardino becomes a marble craftsman like his father. Bernardino brings loads of rocks for the famous S. Mark's Cathedral to Venice.
1490: Leaving from the river's port of the town of Pescantina, Bernardino supplies columns, bases, and caps for the reconstruction of the Cathedral in the city of Modena.
1495: Giorgio and his son Bernardino are named owners of lands and quarries in the town of San Giorgio and the neighboring areas in Valpolicella. Also, the 1520 census shows that the family's assets increased.
1498: Bernardino is also supplier of the door for the Sant'Eligio Church in Verona.
1499: Giorgio makes his will and names as heirs seven of his children: Sofia, Bernardino, Margherita, Gasparino, Ognibene, Gianbattista, Giuliano. According to official documents and a ducal letter, Giorgio is still alive on September 18, 1505.
1502: Giorgio supplies a column for the palace of Sir Lodovico il Moro in Ferrara and is acknowledged with the honorary qualification of engineer. In the same year he obtains from the Podesta of Verona (authority of Verona City) the license to export marbles and import wheat, cereals, and other goods.
1503: Giorgio collaborates on the reconstruction of the famous bridge "Ponte Navi", which was in terrible condition due to the floods of the Adige River.
Giorgio's son, Bernardino, had several sons: Gergorio, Enrico called Rigone, and Cesare Ambrogio. The most well known is Enrico Rigone. Enrico's son, named Bernardino after his grandfather, also took on the marble trade. Bernardino sent a large quantity of handcrafted rocks to Galasso near Ferrara in 1514. Also, using as departure the port of Pescantina he furnished to the Cardinal Ercole Gonzaga all the columns of white marble for the Cathedral of the city of Mantova. In his will of May 27, 1553 in Verona he leaves some proprieties to other Zorzi relatives such as his cousins GianAntonio e Domenico, sons of Cesare, and Gabriele and Marco, sons of Adamo. However, Bernardino's universal heirs are his children Fiore, Franceschino e Caterina.
1541: Domenico, a son of Cesare (the brother of Enrico Rigone, son of Bernardino) receives a payment for the Columns of the Coro in the Cathedral of Verona. Domenico has a son, Cristoforo, who also is a marble craftsman.
1596: Another son of Domenico, Adamo Zorzi, receives the commission to pave the flooring of the Church of Santa Maria in Organo, in Verona.
1583: Cristoforo's only son, 16 year-old Gianbattista, decides to continue the direct lineage of the marble handcraftsmen trade for the Zorzi family.
1590: Adamo and Battistino Zorzi proceed in the construction of the façade for the Church of Santa Maria in Organo.
Cesare, son of Bernardino Zorzi, and his sons, Bernardino and Gregorio, continue the family tradition of marble craftsmen. Gregorio has two sons Bartolomeo and Nascibene. Bartolomeo has two daughters and one son named Gregorio.
1621: Another son of Bernardino Zorzi is Giulio Zorzi, who is now 55 and has two sons, Zambernardino and Tomio, ages 30 and 19 respectively.
1628: Census records note Giulio Zorzi and his sons are all marble craftsmen. Other Sant'Ambrogio lists dated to 1628 show Filippo Zorzi, 36 years old, and Gasparino Zorzi, 60 years old, both marble craftsmen.
During the 1600s and 1700s, the Zorzi family is very active in the marble world of Verona. Giovanni Zorzi signs up for the art school of marble craftsmen in Verona at the end of the 1600s.
1675: At the Church of Sant'Ambrogio, representatives of the Zorzi family are present for the Constitutional Act of the newly founded fraternity of Saint Bovo and the Coronati Saints, patrons of the marble craftsmen. At the same time, Tomio Zorzi, son of Giulio, confirms that the Zorzis are hand craftsmen, dealers, and owners of marble quarries.
In modern times the Zorzi's tradition of stone craftsmanship continues
In the early 1900's, three Zorzi brothers, Giacomo, Antonio, and Tullio are involved in the local production of marble in S.Ambrogio di Valpolicella. Giacomo and Tulio work for the Pellegrini family, while Antonio Zorzi becomes associate partner of the "Coperativa Marmisti" (photos below) of S.Ambrogio di Valpolicella
Ezio Zorzi, son of Antonio, precedes his father's activity, first at Marmi Lasa in Alto Adige region, and then at Marmi Colorati in Carrara. After these experiences, Ezio Zorzi starts his own business, forming one of the first companies in that place and time who worked granite. Ezio exported granite to all of Europe in both slabs and custom cut sizes. For his work in developing Italy's stone business, Ezio Zorzi was honored by the President of the Italian Republic with the title of "Cavaliere del Lavoro" (Knight of the Work).
1976: Ezio's son, Roberto Antonio Zorzi, marriedPaola Crescini, the first-born daughter of Antonio Crescini. And thus two traditions in the local marble and granite production were united in one family.
Paola's great grandfather, Antonio Crescini, who worked the local marbles according to the antique techniques, handed down through times, taught to the son Valentino the art, skill and love for marbles.Valentino Crescini, an honest and faithful man, built one of the largest companies of those times. With the help of his children, Antonio, Gianni, Angelo, andLibera, he developed a large scale industrial marble activity. After War World II, his son, Antonio Crescini, was able to save the family stone activity. His focus was in fabrication of local marble: Botticino and Rosso Verona, which he successfully exported in all of Europe. Antonio Crescini had four daughters, his first born; Paola helped him in the processing and accounting department, as the family enterprise grew.
1983: Antonio dies of a heart attack, perhaps the years of prison in Dachau, Germany during WWII, as well as the stress of the industrial activity, left a sign on his body. That same year, Roberto Antonio Zorzi and Paola Crescini began their own enterprise forming the Zorzi Group, specializing in foreign commercial projects in marble and granite.
Some of Roberto and Paola's best known include:
- The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, IL –USA, with Granite Swedish Mahogany
- The Radisson Hotel of Minneapolis, MN-USA, with Marble Breccia Oniciata and special molding in Botticino Classico.
- The Mason Royal Hotel of Pusan, South Korea, which was built for the Olympic Games of Seoul, Korea.
- The Atallah Jarallah Project in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, which includes supply & installation of more than 60,000 m2 of material by our team of 105 installers. With this project in Saudia Arabia, the Zorzi Group also begins the installation services for large commercial projects abroad.
Roberto becomes one of the first stone fabricators in the Verona area to produce "thin modular granite" installing the first assembly line for the processing of modular granite including superior measures up to 24" x 24". This phase of experimenting machinery and research involved much energy and financing capital. From this situation, in conjunction with the European market depression, came the idea of transferring the experience and knowledge abroad, in search of further business opportunities overseas.
1995: After winning a "visa lottery, " Roberto and Paola, along with their five daughters, moved to Seattle. With this move to the United States, the Zorzi family stone business begins its next chapter: the American market.
1999: Roberto and Paola founded the Zorzi Corporation/dba: Antony Architectural Stone, a corporation for the import, supply, fabrication, and installation of architectural and dimensional stone in the United States and around the world.
2012: The Zorzi family expands their U.S. processing facility by importing from Italy a new custom made machine: the "KRONOS CNC Rapid 725 ATC MOVE" with 5 interpolated axes. This new 3D digital technology will allow the company to operate on a local, national and international market by increasing efficiency, reducing waste, optimizing work time and productivity. The Zorzi family is now able to satisfy all custom architectural and dimensional stone requirements in the building industry.
The next chapter of the Zorzi family story is now being written, continuing its long-held tradition of pioneer courage, determination, and leadership in the marble and granite industry.

Building a Culture of Human Rights/
How can we build a rights-respecting culture? .... Law is necessary; its mandate can influence and shape behaviors and attitudes. But it isn't sufficient, in part because law often operates at a distance from the lives of most people, including the most vulnerable and marginalized.....Until human rights education becomes universal, a source much closer to home offers a vibrant set of materials that explore human rights and can help build a rights-respecting environment: children's literature. Many of the stories children read and have read to them explore and confront important themes about children's rights and their responsibilities to respect the rights of others. And they do this in a safe, imaginative world that is accessible to children

Hey everybody,
In our blog post about our 10 favorite video games of 2015, we had a little iOS game called Alto's Adventure at #10. We had this to say about it:

It's just the endless mountain, the beautiful instrumental music and you. It's really cool and, well, zen as fuck.
One Love,
P.S In case your forgot how the game looks, here is the original trailer (no zen mode in this trailer though):

It reveals that high blood pressure late in life might harm the brain.Autopsies on nearly 1,300 older people, including about 640 clergy members, found signs of damage and one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease in the brains of those with higher blood pressure than among those with pressure closer to normal, researchers reported Wednesday.The research began in 1994 and combined people from three studies of aging who agreed to donate their brains for autopsy upon their death, including the Religious Orders Study of Catholic clergy throughout the United States. All were over 65 and without known dementia at the start and were followed until they died – at an average age of 89 and after an average of eight years in the study.With Alzheimer's, changes in the brain occur a decade or more before symptoms do, so high blood pressure may have been doing damage well before the age when these people enrolled in the study, he said.

+1 David G,
We use delrin strips at work to achieve smooth movement.
That stuff 🙂
Or maybe

2. Add green screen background and paint the "table" green.
Thanks for getting the creative juices flowing.

Marriage proposal in Sky GardenPublished on 23rd January '17
We recently created a beautiful proposal for Jacob and his now fiance Ligia with the best views overlooking London.Jacob and Ligia fly to different countries for a few hours at a time because they love to travel, so Jacob told Ligia that they were going to London to have a meal in Sky Garden, little did she what else he had in store! With only a few hours for the couple to get to Sky Garden from the airport, pull off an incredible proposal, and still leave enough time for a celebratory lunch before the couple headed back to the airport, we had a hard task at hand. However, we knew just how to make the proposal perfect. We suggested that instead of having a treasure hunt around London, it should instead take place in Sky Garden itself. Jacob thought it was a great idea so we set to work finding the ideal gifts. On the day of the proposal Jacob, Ligia and Ligia's sister arrived at Sky Garden. As they began to walk around the gardens Ligia was surprised when one of our planners handed her a gift that had a note addressed to her attached. It said "Here is your first surprise. It is my favourite memory of us." As Ligia unwrapped the gift a photo frame with a lovely picture of the couple inside was revealed. The couple continued walking and they were met by another of our planners who handed Ligia a second gift. Inside Ligia found a box containing one of Liberty's famous scarfs, a true London momento.For the final gift Jacob lead Ligia out to the observation deck where he told her to look at the views. As she did one of our planners came over with the final gift... a long stemmed red rose with a note attached saying, "I have a question to ask you..." Whilst Ligia was reading the note Jacob bent down so that he was on one knee behind her. As she turned around he held up a beautiful ring and asked her to be his wife. Through tears of joy, Ligia said 'yes'.Congratulations to the happy couple! Ligia was over the moon with her proposal and said, "Thank you, guys! It was by far the best surprise I've ever had!" If you would like help planning a romantic proposal like this one let us know at email@example.com. If you would like to learn more about what we do visit our website at www.theproposers.co.uk.

The huz and I took a quick trip to Austin over the weekend to watch my cousin ride across the finish line at the BP MS150. For those of you that don't know about the race, it is a bike ride from Houston to Austin that raises money for MS research. You can read more about the race here. This year the goal was to raise more than $16 million dollars. It was so inspiring to watch my cousin ride in to Austin and get excited about being a part of something bigger than himself. Standing on the sideline watching people ride for one unifying cause made me smile. Events like these remind me of what we are capable of when we work together.
It was great to get away for a few days because the last few weeks have been devoted to our renovation project. Our focus for this trip was outlet shopping, eating, drinking and relaxing.
This has been my go to beauty look the last few weeks. There is something about spring that just makes me want to look and feel fresh. I am currently on a beauty ban which means I am not purchasing any new makeup until my birthday...which is in August...I know...crazy.

Shassi - AKA The Misanthropic Shiba
On October 22nd, 1993, I brought Shassi home. She had been born on August 27th, 1993. Now, it's two months shy of her 14th birthday.
I see her growing more vague now. She's nearly blind and at least partly deaf. (We don't know how deaf; since she's never listened to a thing I said in her entire life). She has progressed from giving other dogs the evil eye to trembling violently if she encounters one. She has her little routine with my mother and aunt and spends most of her time sleeping now. She needs some help in and out of the car.
It's funny how a dog's life can mark an era in a human's. I got Shassi when I was 16 - an awkward, self-hating, undersocialized 16. Now I'm three months shy of my 30th birthday. Well, I'm a bit more socialized at least. During Shassi's tenure, I graduated high school - back when it still meant something, left home, started The Misanthropic Shiba, graduated from college, joined the military, left the military and returned to Nanaimo.
Shassi, ever since she toddled into my life, has always been her own dog. At first, it was startling and almost offensive. Dogs were supposed to come when they were bloody well called, dammit! They were supposed to at least pretend some regard for you past the thirteen seconds that it took to ascertain that you hadn't brought any meat or cheese home from the store. They weren't supposed to be the catalyst for the most absurd events that cling to the memory of one's growing up.
We got used to it, even to the point of dragging out the latest Shassi story whenever someone wanted to know if anything interesting had gone on in our lives. Shassi was the dog that everyone gravitated to, proving once again that people are attracted to beings that couldn't care less if everyone around them lived or died. Kena and Buddi, the elder dogs of the pack, were perfectly happy being petted and made much of, and I daresay they got their fill. But Shassi was special. A dog unto herself.
I wish I was more like her. Not to the point where I say, "To hell with everyone!" and live only for my immediate gain. But to the point where I can forgive myself and think well of myself even if I've made mistakes or done something stupid or thoughtless or careless. The ability to take note of a situation, take the lessons to heart and move on is something that my dog possesses that I really wish I did.
But I'm only 29 and I have time. Shassi is nearly 14 and her sun is setting. I believe that she has a year or so left; perhaps even two or three. But it won't be long, in the terms of a human lifespan.
Shassi, dog of my childhood, I love you. For your sake and the sake of all the dogs who I was privileged to share my life with, I wish - I hope - that there is a better beyond where we will meet again.

I have been a fan of Shassi's for a very long time. I am a trained human handler of a black and tan Shiba. when i read your Misanthropic Shiba post, i laughed as it was all so very familiar. Nikko was a puppy at that time. what you wrote about neutering, i made Nikko's dad read.. and thats what got him to agree to getting our boy fixed.
i am very saddened to hear about what is happening with her at this time. I pray for her comfort. she has led a very happy life and she has certainly touched mine.
I am tearing as i type this.
Thank you for the stories and the comics.
My best shiba kisses to Shassi... if her highness will allow such a thing.

I found The Misanthropic Shiba after I adopted Bandit, a dog from the SPCA they said was part Shiba Inu. I'd never heard of the breed, so I did some research. Your website was extremely helpful.
Bandit is the most wonderful tricolor dog in the world. But if I'd known about that double coat twice a year shedding before I adopted her - I'd have missed out on an amazing dog. But hey, what's a little loose fur between friends?

Shassi has been an inspiration to many of us who fell in love with the Shiba at first sight, without ever knowing what it was that we fell in love with. She all lead us down that dark path of awareness and yet, taught us that Shibas were not to be feared, but rather worshipped.
I do not know of any person who has a Shiba who has not read Misanthropic Shiba. It is required reading material.
Shassi is what all Shibas inspire to be.

I don't even have a Shiba but am inspired by your words for your dogs and yourself!
I love dogs and have 2 tiny spirits(live ones!) that lighten up our lives everyday.
For some reason I am drawn to the beauty and personality of the Shiba and that is how I ended up at your site. But I'll admire them from the outside for now! Thank-you...

This is the hardest part of when a dog decides to own a human...poor Shassi. It makes me tear up, too, cause I have to realize my 8 year old shiba won't be around forever...but I'll think about that another day.

I inclination not agree on it. I regard as polite post. Expressly the designation attracted me to be familiar with the intact story.

Just posted a serious piece here on the blog, and thought that's where I would put my efforts today and maybe for the first day this month skip the NaPoWriMo. Seems that my mind was not at all in to that idea, and the words kept swirling around and hand reached for pen and paper and something had to be put down.
Day #11 in National Poetry Writing Month (April)
Thought about skipping today
not writing in rhyme or counting
syllables and stresses
Found it impossible ignoring to play
inventing new sentences with words bouncing
enabling me restless
New efforts tomorrow? Either way,
in my mind the words are housing
promoting progresses
If you want to read something better than my today's try, jump straight to this page: NaPoWriMo – Participants Page

Sequester and school
Cuts would cost New York colleges $110 million
ALBANY — New York's institutions of higher education will suffer a significant blow if the sequester goes into effect later this week, education leaders warned Monday.
If the automatic federal budget cuts kick in, it will cost the state's colleges and universities $110 million in the current fiscal year. Much of that money would come out of scientific research and financial aid, and that means job cuts and climbing college costs. Higher education is vulnerable to the federal cuts because research and development in New York receive more money than in virtually every other state. Colleges and universities help bring billions of federal dollars to New York, totaling nearly $5 billion a year.
Science grants have already begun to slow in anticipation of the cuts to research, which would hurt the nation with unseen future consequences, said Laurie Leshin, dean of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's School of Science, and former deputy associate administrator at NASA. She said cuts have the potential to eliminate, or at least slow down, future discoveries including disease treatment, the development of cutting-edge computers and collection of data. It could mean 300 fewer Ph.D. students at RPI in the next decade, she said.
"It's an erosion of our leadership at exactly the moment we need to be infusing our economy with innovation," she said.
Unless Congress and President Barack Obama reach a deal by Friday, $85 billion in cuts are set to take effect from March to September. The estimated effect of this sequestration on New York is $275 million this year in funding for education, job training, public health, law enforcement and environmental protection, the White House said.
Nationally, the cuts would require an annual reduction of roughly 5 percent for non-defense programs and roughly 8 percent for defense. That means a loss of $12.5 billion in federal funds for research and development and of 200,000 jobs in 2013 alone, according to the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation, a nonpartisan think tank. In New York, higher education leaders caution that could derail efforts to become more globally competitive.
The impact on "core research, innovation, workforce development and student aid programs is devastating," SUNY Chancellor Nancy Zimpher said in a statement. "Continued federal support for higher education in these areas is imperative as New York's colleges and universities strive to keep pace not only with those across the country but around the globe."
New York would lose more work-study students than any other state, with 4,150 being cut.
That could put college out of reach for some students, who earn an average of $1,700 under the program that provides jobs for students. In addition, 4,520 fewer low-income students would receive aid. The supplemental opportunity grant gives an average of $600 to the neediest students in addition to other grants.
The cuts would come at a time when Gov. Andrew Cuomo is looking to institutions of higher education as an economic driver and job creators, said Laura Anglin, president of the Commission on Independent Colleges and Universities.
She said it immediately creates a disruption for students applying to college because their financial aid packages are now being put together.
The loss of some aid could alter their ability to select schools, she said. "It creates an atmosphere of uncertainty," she said.
The University at Albany stands to lose about $8 million this year, said James Dias, vice president for research. He said the looming cuts put research projects currently under way, including some that have been in place for years, at risk. That could lead to layoffs and the loss of graduate student funding.

The fluency secret which helped me learn 12 languages,
that no one teaches in school...
If you've ever dreamed of the day you'll be able to speak a foreign language fluently, you're in the right place. I've been learning languages for the past 20 years, I've learned 12 languages fluently, and I've spent literally thousands of hours training hundreds of different students around the world to learn languages the way I do.
Languages open doors to new countries. Cultures. Friends. Romance. Adventure.
When I think about language learning, rich life changing experiences and powerful personal transformation comes to mind.
Sadly this isn't the same for everyone...
I always ask my students to share their language learning frustrations with me. What's interesting is that everyone thinks their problems are unique, but almost everyone says the same things:
- "I feel like a child when I try to express myself and I feel stupid"
- "When I try to speak to a native speaker my mind goes blank and I forget everything that I've learned"
- "I've got a really bad memory and I forget new words and expressions really quickly"
- "Learning new words is really, really difficult"
- "My pronunciation is horrible. I can't get the sounds right. I'm often unsure if people misunderstand me because of my bad pronunciation, or because of my grammar"
- "Studying grammar is boring, and when I try to speak to someone I forget all of the rules, and make tons of mistakes"
- "I have to translate everything in my mind before I speak. This makes communication really slow and tiring. I feel like a child unable to express my ideas"
The list goes on...
Do you tell yourself any of the above statements?
You're not alone.
I used to tell myself all of the lines above. When I first started learning languages the process was painful, boring, slow and it made me constantly question my intelligence.
But when I stumbled upon a new way of doing things, everything changed. The learning process became enjoyable, I started looking forward to my new way of learning. I started to progress faster. But the most rewarding aspect of my new approach, was the fact that I finally started speaking with people. I was having real conversations, and it wasn't long until I was able to speak in another language fluently. 20 years later and I'm able to speak 12 languages, and to think, I used to question my ability to learn even one language to an intermediate level.
Hundreds of my students have expressed their painful experiences in language learning before coming to me for language coaching. I'm proud to say that I've helped them all crack the language code and that I'm yet to meet a student who didn't succeed in learning a language to fluency with my guidance.
The secret to learning a language to fluency
Languages cannot be taught, they can only be learned
What does this mean?
It means the school system has got it all wrong. And it's the reason you failed to learn a language to fluency in school. The same reason millions of people around the world spend years studying a language but lack the ability to order food in a restaurant in the language they've been learning...
If languages cannot be taught, and they can only be learned, we have to ask ourselves: what does it mean "to learn" ?
On closer inspection we'll find that there are two different meanings, and this leads to confusion in the approach most people take to language learning.
"To learn" can mean:
- Remembering information
- Developing a skill
When languages are studied at school we're taught how to remember different pieces of information; grammar rules and list of words.
Remembering information makes people feel like they're getting closer to fluency, but when they're asked to order food in a restaurant, they stumble over their words unable to string simple sentences together.
Have you had a similar experience?
It's clear that while some learning takes place in the classroom, developing the ability to communicate with people isn't.
Language is not a subject of study, it's a skill that needs to be acquired.
If you're like most language learners you spend most of your time studying the foreign language you want to learn.
This is the path to failure.
To learn a language to fluency you have to spend more time on fluency development exercises, which is the opposite of studying.
Fluency can't be taught, it can only be developed
To develop fluency you have to become an independent language learner. You'll have to take the language learning process into your own hands, and spend time on fluency development exercises.
These are some of the things you need to know:
- How to develop speaking skills, so you can communicate with native speakers, easily.
- How to develop listening skills, so you can understand fast speaking natives, effortlessly
- How to remember words and phrases, quickly.
- How to extract the treasure of knowledge from the mind of a native speaker, efficiently.
- How to acquire grammar rules, painlessly
These are just some the core skills you'll develop in the 41 video, 6 hour masterclass I've put together to help you reach your goal of speaking a language fluently.
I'll teach you how to DEVELOP THE ABILITY to communicate in a foreign language, instead of how to halfheartedly remember pieces of information.
The course contains my NEWEST material, and the same techniques I've used to learn 12 languages.

"Over the past few weeks I have spent a great deal of time watching and rewatching Luca Lampariello's video series on How to Master a Foreign Language. It is eight hours long, and is packed with information. In fact, there is so much to absorb that I have watched it many times, and taken careful notes to allow it all to sink in. Among the many books and courses that I have, I rate this one very highly. A recommended purchase, particularly if you don't rush through it, and give it many viewings over several weeks."
Eric Partaker
True, Tried & Tested. That's how I would describe Luca's workshop. A language-learning masterpiece that blends theory and practice to get you off to a flying start with your new language... or help you transition from an intermediate learner to an advanced speaker. There are thousands of various language-learning approaches to choose from... but your search is over. Learn from a master. Learn from Luca. I have... and I'm well on my way to speaking three languages fluently.
"My name is Shinya. I bought the videos of Luca's workshop in Vienna. I found the videos just great. Luca explained his learning method very well, in a very clear way. I personally have some problems with my pronunciation and listening comprehension and I finally understood how to tackle those problems. The quality of his videos is also excellent. It is definitely worth buying the workshop. Thank you, Luca!!!"
"Luca passionately and masterfully presented what it entails to learn a new language in an eye opening presentation that included countless insights and practical how to. I believe that by just following few of his insights and methods, I would have huge gains. I had many aha moments and I expect that what I have seen will be a road map for my future studies. It was a great experience."
Tony Hernandez
Luca's Masterclass is the best language learning product I have ever purchased. While nearly all other products focus on learning one specific language, Luca's presentation gives you the tools and know-how to tackle any language. While everyone else hands you fish, Luca teaches one how to fish, making it infinitely valuable. If you're just starting out this will literally save you years of tossing and toiling that independent language learners often have to deal with. You'll be able to avoid the years of mistakes that most beginners make, myself included. For experienced language learners, this is an extremely valuable weapon to add to the arsenal. As language learners, we each have our own ideas and theories on language acquisition. This Mastercalss puts all of that into one, concise place. As far as specifics, I believe that one of the stronger parts of Luca's Masterclass is, he understands that there is no one magic way to learn a language. Every language learner is different and you will learn different techniques and mindsets to make your own language learning gameplan. And that to me was the biggest takeaway, the mindset explanations. I wish I knew this earlier, but learning a language is less about what you do and more of how you do it, and more specifically, how you approach it. Highest recommendation!
Jason Eckerman
"When I started learning languages on my own a few years ago, I knew I could save myself time by learning from the best. That's when I found Luca. Years later, I'm still using his valuable advice to improve my Spanish skills. Luca's masterclass is so packed with information that I've listened to it repeatedly, picking up more helpful pieces every time I do. There's so much here to help you learn efficiently at any stage, improve your pronunciation, and learn a language in a way that will stick. I strongly recommend Luca's masterclass to anybody who is serious about learning a language."
100% Risk Free
The How to Master any Language masterclass contains advice, principles and strategies developed in 20+ years learning 12 different languages. I'm certain the masterclass will provide you with the strategies you need to succeed with your language learning in the same way they have have helped hundreds of my students. If, however, for whatever reason you're unhappy, send me an e-mail within 30 days of your purchase and I'll make sure you get your money back.
