If you've never had the opportunity to visit Israel, this book will take you there. . . . The greatest accomplishment of this book is that through the backdrop of Jesus' home and humanity, you will see the mission and the glory of the suffering Savior who walked this earth in places we can still touch today.GREG LAURIE

Learn the Life of Christ by Listening
Listening to this audiobook makes reading easy. Especially in moments when you can't read a physical book.
- On your commute or in an airplane
- While exercising
- While doing house work or working in the yard
- On a walk
- On road trips or vacation
Walking in the Footsteps of Jesus is part travel guide, part memoir, and part biblical commentary. Wayne takes readers on a heart-engaging pilgrimage that reveals how the places of biblical history communicate as much as the characters and stories that made their settings famous.DR. SANDRA GLAHN

- Return with Jesus to a hometown ready to reject the invitation to His kingdom.
- Travel with a group of fishermen with a sea of false expectations.
An Engaging Travelogue Where Jesus' Life Intersects with Yours
This book is a travelogue. It follows the life of Jesus, step by step.
- Through the lens of personal experiences, you will witness His life, His lands, and the lessons He taught there.
- You will add emotion and experience to biblical understanding.
As you take this journey, you will get a general and orderly grasp of Jesus' life and ministry. But more importantly, you'll better appreciate His unusual method of transforming the lives of those who follow Him.
Including your own.
This is a wonderful book that will not only take you back but also thrust you forward in your journey with the Savior. Wayne Stiles gives us an up-close and very personal look at Christ and the Bible in Walking in the Footsteps of Jesus.DR. JACK GRAHAM

Frequent advances in technology create opportunity and challenge for those in the transportation industry
"new innovations are opening up challenges throughout the automotive supply chain "
By the end of World War II, knowledge doubled every 25 years.
Today, it's every 12 months.
Acclaimed futurist and inventor, R. Buckminster Fuller called it the "Knowledge Doubling Curve" in his 1981 book, Critical Path.
Darryl Barber, UPS enterprise marketing manager, describes how the doubling effect is impacting the automotive industry in his blog, A More Electrified Auto Supply Chain (posting 11/17).
Barber explains how new innovations are opening up challenges throughout the automotive supply chain – pushing the stakes even higher. To illustrate, Barber points to a series of recent recalls observing, "Just one failure can have dire consequences."
"equally, innovation is unlocking opportunities we haven't seen before"
Jack Levis, UPS senior director of process management said that by the end of 2016, ORION will save "10 million gallons of fuel a year – the equivalent of 100,000 metric tons in carbon emissions."
In his TED@UPS talk posted today, Turning Skeptics Into Believers, Levis describes how bringing ORION to life wasn't particularly easy, but the outcome has become a game changer for UPS.
It's all that and more, this week on Longitudes.

It's been a whirlwind of a month or so for Eddie "Piolín" Sotelo. First, we welcomed him as one of our very own – October 18 marked the start of his show "El Show de Piolín" on his own channel, Piolín Radio, making history as the first Latino to earn not only a show, but a channel on SiriusXM.
With big changes come big rewards, it seems. Over the weekend the host sealed his spot in the history books yet again – when he was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame. The event – which recognizes extraordinary talents who contribute to the development of radio – was held at the Museum of Broadcast in Chicago, Illinois.
"I feel blessed, honored and humbled to be included in the company of such great talent," Piolín said. "I am thankful to each and every one of my fans and listeners of 'El Show de Piolín' who inspire me every day and who have guided me toward the opportunity to receive this great honor."
Showing just how much his fans mean to him, the well-loved host gave several of his Chicago fans the opportunity to accompany him to the induction ceremony. (During last Thursday's show, Piolín brought up the topic of Chicago and wanted to hear his listeners' thoughts. The result was an overwhelming amount of call-ins with fan support inspiring Piolín to bring a select number of fans with him).
Originally from Mexico, Piolín came to this country to fulfill his dreams of being involved in the world of radio broadcasting. Over the years he has won various awards including several NAB Marconi Radio Awards, and being voted one of the nation's most influential entertainers by the Los Angeles Times.
Piolín's motto is "We came to succeed." And he's doing just that.

Feb 13, 2014, 08:00 ET
DALLAS, Feb. 13, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Neiman Marcus announced the launch of a Lela Rose tabletop collection available exclusively at NeimanMarcus.com, marking the fashion designer's first collaboration in the home category.
In partnership with Neiman Marcus, Rose created a special tabletop collection that includes a white lace and linen napkin and placemat set ($100) as well as a set of four assorted dessert plates ($135). Each dessert plate in the set features a unique design inspired by master chef Ferran Adrià's complex approach to food.
"We are proud to be partnering with Lela Rose on this collection," said Gerald Barnes, Chief Merchant, Neiman Marcus Direct. "Neiman Marcus has always felt that art enhances the quality of people's lives and so it seemed natural that we would collaborate with Lela on this collection."
"Entertaining is woven into my lifestyle, so creating a tabletop collection is a natural extension," said Lela Rose, designer. "I am inspired by Adrià's artistic approach to food; each piece I designed reflects the energy and creativity in his masterpieces. This collaboration allowed me to apply my design philosophy of mixing color and texture to tabletop for the first time."
About Lela Rose
Lela Rose was raised in Texas and went to school in Colorado where nature, its surrounding landscapes, and the sublime colors it offers have long been an inspiration. Today, Lela continues to draw from these early influences as she designs clothes for the modern sophisticated woman who embodies a spirit of effortless elegance.
After graduating from Parson's School of Design in 1993, she went to work with two esteemed designers, Richard Tyler and Christian Francis Roth. There she honed her love of couture fabric as well as fanatic attention to detail. In 1998, Lela's vision and passion compelled her to create her signature collection, Lela Rose.
The brand is built on an entertaining lifestyle aesthetic and a design philosophy of creating hand finished clothes that exude a casual luxury and refinement. By adding whimsy to elegance through brilliant color and handcrafted details, Rose has brought a fresh point of view to modern American fashion.

How to use granite without the look of granite
Currently I am working on a Kitchen in the Kensington neighborhood of San Diego. The clients wanted to use granite for their counter tops because of its durability. Although I admire its ability to resist staining and scratching, I feel that granite was overused in the early part of the decade and can make a kitchen look dated. That is until I found this slab at Dal Tile. WOW, it blew me away! It is a Copper Legnia that has an antique/leathering finish. Its low luster, veining, and movement remind me of a sumptuous slab of marble. Inventive finishes are truly breathing new life into granite!

Our platform.
Where our journey started. THE DAILY STREET launched in its initial form in late 2009, just before the boom of UK fashion blogs. Pioneering in its simple approach, THE DAILY STREET originated as a UK only streetwear blog.
Today, THE DAILY STREET stands as a UK staple. Having expanded its content beyond streetwear to encapsulate all that influences and is influenced by streetwear and sneaker culture, THE DAILY STREET continues to look to develop and progress as the landscape shifts around it.
Our content.
Rooted in an honest and knowledgeable approach, we believe that the key to good content that connects with an audience is to first connect with the people within the content itself. To allow that human connection to shine through in all its organic glory. Over the years, it's that that we've learned gives content the special something you can't quite put your finger on.
For THE DAILY STREET, our approach aims to always sit comfortably outside of the expected, but not too far to alienate people. THE DAILY STREET has never seen itself as above its audience, but it doesn't underestimate its audiences intellect and hunger for quality either. The same statement holds true today as much as it did right at the beginning of our journey – THE DAILY STREET should feel like your well informed and trusted friend.

This is Ilford Delta 3200 ie @ 1600 ASA and a bit of a stretch / reasonsing for shooting this fast at 4pm daylight. It was a part of the film exploration process - so I went for it. Another roll is in the fridge on reserve for lower light / night.

In the studio: Rationing art supplies, part 2
I want my children to have high-quality art materials. It shows my respect for their work and, in turn, they treat it more seriously.
That said, if they create 15 paintings in a row, that is a lot of watercolor paper. Can I afford this?
(Multiple by 20 for the classroom version!)
In order for children to work with the best materials, they must learn to work with them as a real artist does. They must learn that before we do an important work, we sketch. We think about what we want to make. We plan. Then we get out the nice materials, when we are ready to do the important work.
It's okay to make mistakes and need more paper, more paint. But when we are exploring and sketching and thinking (with our brains and with our paintbrush), we want to use "regular" paper.
It's also okay to explore with nice materials -- seeing what ink can do on thick paper, how watercolor paints work differently on lovely textured paper. But we name what we are doing, and we make sure that we respect the good materials and don't waste them.
Even small children can fit several sketches onto a piece of paper, then let their teacher (or parent) know that they are ready to paint. This process respects the material, the work, and the artist.
There is a idea that some adults have about children — and it is quite persistent — that children lack control. Youth = immaturity = lack of control. In reality, children can learn to negotiate complex situations and relationships at a very young age. Rather than controlling everything, and parsimoniously eking out the good paper and the best paints, we can help children recognize the value of these things. The children can then move freely in the studio (and in the world), making good choices based on real knowledge, rather than being always at some tall person's mercy, always wishing for more buttons.
4 comments
Thank you for this - and for yesterday's post. I have always believed this about art supplies, and it's good to hear it from someone else. My children value their supplies and generally use them wisely. I think it makes them more thoughtful about their use of materials in general.
Man how I would love to hang out at your house and watch all this in action!
Okay, so if you had to give a list, for a mama of say, three young boys. A list of great art materials that one must have (in addition to all the great stuff you listed in your last post) What would it be? We have a few oil pastels, some chalk pastels. Some watercolor and tracing papers. Some acrylics and watercolors, a BIG chunky pad of drawing paper.
But here I am with THREE 40% off coupons from Michaels, and I really want to get some good quality stuff for creating and hide it away for Christmas. Ideas?
Hi Lori,
I just tagged you on my blog! This drawing is too cute.

NYSID ranked the top interior design school in the nation by DesignIntelligence
Ranked #1 for undergraduate programs and #2 for graduate programs
New York, NY – October 3, 2016 – New York School of Interior Design is ranked the top interior design school in the nation, according to a new survey of practitioners by DesignIntelligence. NYSID's undergraduate interior design program is ranked #1 in the U.S. and the graduate interior design program is ranked #2 in the U.S. for 2017. This is the third year in a row that the College is ranked one of the top five schools in the United States. "It's an incredible achievement for the institution to receive this accolade," said NYSID president David Sprouls. "It's a great recognition of the dedicated team of faculty and staff, immensely talented students and alumni, plus an incredibly supportive board of trustees."
In addition, NYSID's vice president for academic affairs and dean Ellen Fisher was named one of the "25 Most Admired Educators for 2016-17," selected by DesignIntelligence staff with extensive input from thousands of design professionals, academic department heads, and students. The description states, "[Ellen Fisher] has grown the repute of the school while increasing the quality of education. Over her career she has handled conflict situations with tactful and appropriate responses. She has developed strong teams to meet performance goals and bridges residential and commercial interior design with strategic vision."
DesignIntelligence ranks undergraduate and graduate programs from the perspective of leading practitioners. A total of 2,920 hiring professionals, 145 deans and 3,742 students in the architecture, interior design, landscape architecture, and industrial design disciplines participated in the research. The survey queried participants on the question, "In your firm's hiring experience in the past five years, which schools are best preparing students for a future in the profession and designing a sustainable future?" In addition, they are queried about additional issues, such as how programs rate in teaching various skills.
The survey was published in DesignIntelligence's 2017 "America's Best Architecture and Design Schools," which it has published annually since 2000. DesignIntelligence is a publication of the Design Futures Council (DFC), a global interdisciplinary network of design community professionals, including leaders of architecture and design firms, product designers and manufacturers, construction and service providers.

Huguenot High's tall, secret weapon: Eric Rustin
Fred Jeter | 1/5/2018, 4:14 p.m.
Most people need a step stool or possibly a ladder to do things Huguenot High School senior Eric Rustin does with both feet flat on the floor.
He's the teenager for the job if you need a ceiling light replaced, a ripe apple plucked from a high branch or, better yet, someone to assist in winning a basketball game. It sure helps when you stand 7 feet tall, can grip a basketball like it's a softball and can nearly reach the rim of the basket on your tippy toes.
"I keep telling Eric he can do things no one else can do," said Huguenot Coach Ksaan Brown.
The friendly but bashful Rustin who wears glasses off the court is among the tallest players in Richmond Public Schools history. But he's also slim at just 165 pounds.
He often plays with long pants and/or sleeves and wears a guard's number—No. 10 — instead of a more traditional number in the 50s for a center.
A clear lack of weight and strength, along with normal growing pains, has delayed his hoops' advancement.
It wasn't until the Falcons' Dec. 27 matchup against Prince George High School in the Tri-City Holiday Classic that Rustin blew out the candles on his varsity coming out party in his size 17 Adidas sneaks.
In a contest billed as the "Battle of the Bigs," Rustin was matched on the low post with the Royals' 6-foot-10, 370-pound Christian Chappell.
Rustin had 14 points, 10 rebounds and blocked five shots, including one on Chappell in the game's final seconds to secure Huguenot's 67-62 victory.
The right-hander also calmly swished four free throws down the stretch, keeping the Royals at bay.
"Eric had a great game," Coach Brown said. "He began playing with a lot of confidence. He hadn't been starting for us. But he has earned that right now."
Chappell, an All-Conference 20 pick last year with a bruising inside style and soft touch, settled for 15 points, 10 of which came prior to the game's intermission.
"I just kept my hands up," Rustin said of his determined effort.
Huguenot has a variety of scoring options, such as seniors DeShawn Ridley and Rayvon McKoy, junior Lance Monteiro and sophomore Jordan Parham.
Rustin views himself as mostly a rebounder and defensive intimidator with his pterodactyl like 7-foot-6 wingspan.
"My role is defense, blocking shots and rebounding," said Rustin, who improved during off-season travel ball with Team Richmond/Garner Road under Del Harris.
Offensively, Rustin has surprising stamina and quickness and a nifty turn-around jumper from inside 10 feet.
"And don't forget the hook," Coach Brown told Rustin with a smile. "We like the hook because that eliminates problems with the footwork."
Despite his extreme height, Rustin is a relative newcomer to basketball. He was more into swimming before high school.
"I've always been the tallest person everywhere I've been," Rustin said. "I was at least 6 feet in sixth grade. I know it draws attention, but I'm used to it."
Rustin has drawn NCAA Division I recruiting interest from the likes of Norfolk State, Hampton, High Point and Mount St. Mary's universities. However, Coach Brown suggests his slender center may be better suited for a year at a prep school where he could add size and savvy.
Make no mistake; no one is saying Rustin is the next Ralph Sampson or Shaquille O'Neal. He's a work in progress, with progress the key word in that phrase.
Tall tales: The tallest player in area history may have been 7-foot-3 Luke Minor, who played briefly at Mills Godwin High School in Henrico County in the 1990s before transferring to Blue Ridge School. Minor went on to play at Hagerstown Community College in Maryland, the University of Southern California and Virginia Tech.
Another giant in local lore was 7-foot Charlie Nicholas who played a few games at J.R. Tucker High School in Henrico County in the late 1960s and signed with the University of Baltimore in 1972. However, Nicholas never played college ball and became a popular vendor at the Richmond Coliseum.

#94 Find When Your Incoming Mail was Sent
December 13, 2011
Everyday, billions of emails are sent around the world. When email servers attempt to deliver messages, they typically check for confirmation that the recipient's server successfully received the message.
This process normally happens almost instantaeously and the Send and Received messages times match up perfectly. High mail volume and Internet traffic jams can cause a mismatch as outgoing servers attempt to redeliver a message and incoming servers are unable to respond.
By default, Outlook lists emails by their Received Time in your Inbox. If you open or reply to the message, the Sent Time will appear.
- In your Inbox: Your email will display and sort by the Received Time
- When Replying to Email: The original Sent Time will appear
When Opening an Email: The original Sent Time will appear (see below)

We've been pretty adamant here that we don't support any new funding for our current transportation system -- despite its terminal decline -- until we have deep, structural reform of how transportation money is collected and spent. In my January 18 post The Classic Case, I concluded with the following:
Our goal should not be to "get projects built" but to have a transportation funding system that makes our people, cities, states and country stronger. While I agree that new transportation funding is needed (you can read my ebook on the subject), new funding without significant reform is worse than no funding at all. We need to continue to oppose all of these funding efforts until serious reform is on the table.
In addition to the powerful example in that post, we've continued to provide example after example of how our current funding approach is doing more harm than good, most recently Nate Hood's piece on a little city's third multi-million dollar interchange and my piece yesterday on efforts to expand one lonely stroad. We could do stuff like every day and never run out of material.
There have been a number of you that have pushed back on this approach along political lines. I'll summarize that argument as follows: Chuck, while I agree with you in principle, you are rather naive in your thinking. The way government reforms is to spend more money and spend it on the things you want more of. Shifting spending from roads to other investments (transit, bike, ped) is way harder, politically, than expanding spending and giving what you want even more. If you hold out for sweeping reform, you will get nothing.
I have responded to that, and will again if need be, but I'd like to hear your thoughts. Can the type of reform we are seeking -- better feedback loops, spending that has a positive return-on-investment, more incremental investments, chaotic but smart, etc.... -- come about best by expanding the pie or starving the beast?
Is compromise just a part of reform we should accept or would we be better off letting the unsustainable parts of our system implode so we can put our efforts where they will do the most good?
The floor is yours.

In an effort to help my cause of raising money for my trip with Jet Set Zero, my best friend Jason booked a shoot with me. In the wee hours of the night, Jason, two bottles of paint, and I created some dope art. Above are just a few photos from tonight's great shoot. Amazing!

I have a customer interested in heating hardwood. What do I need to know to quote it, and what else should the customer know about EFH and nailed hardwood?
When discussing this application with your customers, go over the manufacturer requirements of the wood:
Nail distance?
Glue down? Nail down? Both?
The manufacturer's product that is approved for installation over embedded floor heat:
Maximum floor temperature allowed?
Minimum and maximum Relative Humidity. Humidity levels are very important in the winter and the summer. The customer will probably need to provide humidification in the winter and dehumidification in the summer to comply with the warranty of the manufacturer. Cupping, gapping, checking, etc. are not simply a result of having EFH installed (even though everyone will probably blame the EFH), the culprit is usually incorrect indoor Relative Humidity levels. This information is very important for the customer to obtain for their product. Not really important for us, just a good reminder for the customer while we are talking with them.
Maximum floor temperature daily differential*
*It is a good idea to ask if the manufacturer has a maximum daily temperature swing specification. This would be the maximum difference in the temperature of the floor per day.
Some flooring manufacturers specify that the temperature of a floor should be adjusted in small amounts, especially when the floor is turned on for the 1st time each year and then shut down for the summer. As an example, some companies will state that the floor temperature be adjusted 2 degrees per day, over the necessary number of days, up to their recommended max temperature. The same process may need to be followed when turning the system off for the summer.
If a flooring manufacturer specifies that the daily operating temperature differential is a maximum of 2 degrees (or similar) per day, that means that a TH115 default settings of 82 (comfort) and 68 (economy) may not comply with the requirements set forth by the flooring manufacturer. If the flooring manufacturer specifies a tight daily temperature range, it may be better to sell the customer a TH114, set to floor mode, to maintain a constant required temperature 24/7. This constant temperature may help keep the floor from expanding and contracting on a daily basis.
Some flooring manufacturers may not have this requirement, but it is a good question to ask.

Julie Gichuru Beaten by Husband
There has been some rumors that Julie Gichuru was being beaten by her husband, here is her responce:
First they said,
"She is married to a very old man,
A veritable sugar daddy,
What a terrible plan!"
Then they said,
"Oh she's married to a snipper of a lad,
Shame, she robbed the cradle,
How terrible, how bad!"
Then they said,
"He beats her, she gets a whipping now and then,
How can she put up with it?
She is just a pecked hen!"
Then they said,
"That man, he is kaliwad like mad,
She controls things like a nonsense,
So shocking, so sad!"
It seems they must say something,
There's always something to be said…
Truth means nothing to them,
But remember, keep your head…
While lies are very hurtful, causing sorrow and pain,
Your victory is that the truth quite a different game.
As you sit back and hear the contorted lies they tell,
Say thank you Lord for giving me a life so sweet and well!
And so ensure your affirmation resides within your soul –
Feeding your focus and passion, making you happy and whole.
For they will not stop the talk, it is what they do best –
But talk is cheap, and this they'll learn when they face this very test.

Misha Piatigorsky On Brazilian Jazz Basics
Lesson by Misha Pitatigorsky
What could be more addictive than Brazilian Samba? When I first heard pianist Cidinho Teixeira at New York's Zinc Bar in the mid-'90s, it was as if I'd discovered a whole new way to breathe music. Leading Brazilian jazz pianists such as Teixeira, Tania Maria, Sergio Mendes, and Eliane Elias all have two important things in common: a rich harmonic vocabulary, and an incredibly strong sense of the upbeat. Let's learn how these elements work together.
- Audio examples - refer to sheet music on pp. 22-23 of October 2010 issue.
- Samba videos by Tania Maria, Cidinho Teixeira, and Eliane Elias.
- Ex. 1 - Rootless Chord Voicings
- Ex.2- Rhythmic Subdivision
- Ex.3 -It's Got That Swing
- Ex.4 -All Elements Together
Click thumbnails below for larger images.
Ex. 1: Rootless Chord Voicings
Brazilian tunes have much in common with jazz standards. They're usually packed with ii-V movement—minor-to-dominant progressions like Cm7 to F7. Ex.1 illustrates typical Brazilian left-hand voicings that follow the Bill Evans style, where the chord doesn't include the root, but is built starting on the third or seventh. I'm also adding color tones, most noticeably on the dominant chords where I've altered the fifth and the ninth.
Ex. 2: Rhythmic Subdivision
In Ex. 2, we use these chords as a template for soloing and comping. Start by playing bass notes in the left hand and rootless voicings in the right to see how they fit together. Brazilian music is usually written in 2/4 time, not 4/4, so we subdivide each of the bar's two quarter-notes by four sixteenth-notes. The upbeats are the second, fourth, sixth, and eighth sixteenth-notes in every measure. The bass line moves much like the way a jazz bassist would play on a swing tune.
Ex. 3: It's Got That Swing
Ex. 3 illustrates a simple F major melodic pattern in the right hand, with our upbeat-centric comping in the left. Accenting the final sixteenth-note of each measure creates a swing feel in your right-hand lines. Try tapping your foot on beats 1 and 2 to bring out the groove.
Ex. 4: All Elements Together
In Ex. 4, I'm putting all these elements together. It's okay not to play all the time in the left hand. Often, I play upbeats in my left hand when my right is taking a break. When my right hand is busier, my left will either play sustained chords, attacking them on upbeats only, or not play at all.

To conceptualise and design the Il Divo album, "A Musical Affair" which focused on their renditions of classical musical pieces from many of the world's favourite musicals.
Inspired by the scaffolding from theatrical productions, we built the set design, photographed the set and artists individually. I was then tasked with super-imposing them into a hyper-real composition.

Meet Herrald in Sydney!
Herrald is 23 years old, from the Netherlands and was studying Business Development and Entrepreneurship until he decided to go abroad. And so he did. Flash forward to half a year later; he has been an intern in Sydney for almost 4 months now. We asked Herrald some questions about his internship.
Can you describe a typical day at your internship?
I live 5 minutes from my internship so on a typical day, I walk to the office. First thing I do is drink a cup of coffee, that is very important to start my day. After this, I start my daily tasks: I check if there is any mail for me, I check bills, keep an eye on my email, and call people about payments. Although the company also has departments in Singapore and China we are the main office so we need to do things for them too. I have an hour lunch break. Other tasks I perform during my day are picking up the phone and helping out the event team with for example loading the van etc.
How do you feel about the working environment? Are there cultural differences?
What I like about Australia is that it is laid back. I work from 9 till 5 with an hour lunch break. The difference with the Netherlands is that they care more about time, money, and achievements. In Australia there is less pressure; they do not ask all the time if you have finished your tasks yet. I was happy I already met up with some other interns before I started working. The weekend before I had drinks with some of them. My other co-workers I usually only see during working hours, but we get to do many events! We get to eat lunch or go out for dinner with the company paying for it often. On Fridays we even go to the bar sometimes with everyone and the first rounds of drinks the boss pays!
What is your housing situation and how did you find housing?
A 5 minute walk every morning and I am at my internship! Some people take public transportation, all the trains ride every 8 minutes or so and a public transit card you can easily buy. Other people even bike, but during rush hour I would definitely not recommend doing that! The housing in Sydney is as most big cities, expensive. When I arrived I first stayed in an Airbnb for 10 days so I could look around and see apartments myself. Right now, I have my own room, and I share the living area, kitchen and bathroom with 2 housemates. In a week I am going to move to a bigger room and I will have 3 housemates.
Have you made any trips? (or have you planned some)
Recently I traveled a long weekend to Byron Bay! All four of us trainees at the company rented a car to go there. During our drive we stopped at several places, just whatever looked interesting we stopped. We visited Nature parks, and drove the touristic routes. When we arrived in Byron Bay we stayed at a hostel and rented surfboards.
How do you feel about your experience so far?
Actually, way better than I expected! After 3 or 4 weeks I already felt like I had been here for months.
What would you want to say to potential candidates for programs like this?
Make sure you have enough savings on your bank account! You can easily arrange an Australian bank account when you are still in your home country. Once you have arrived in Australia you only have to pick up the card. My advice for housing would be to first stay in a hostel or Airbnb and take time to look for an apartment. You have websites where people advertise housing, definitely check those out, but always visit the apartment first since often the pictures don't resemble the apartment in real life!
What are your future plans?
I am planning on traveling way more!

July 31 [12:00 EDT] -- To say that Puff Daddy owns next week's "Billboard" charts might actually be an understatement.
The record label CEO-turned-rapper holds the top spot on the album chart, as well as the top two spots on the singles chart according to "Billboard." Puff Daddy's debut album, "No Way Out," sold over 500,000 copies in its first week in stores, far outpacing the "Men In Black" soundtrack, which landed at number two.
Meanwhile, Puffy and Faith Evans still claim the top single in the country with "I'll Be Missing You," while the Notorious B.I.G.'s "Mo Money Mo Problems" (which also features Puff Daddy) sits at number two.
It seems the only chart safe from the Puff Daddy onslaught is the modern rock singles chart, where Sugar Ray is still at number one with "Fly." Actually, very little changes on next week's modern rock chart, as Sugar Ray, Matchbox 20 ("Push"), and Live ("Turn My Head") still hold the top three spots.

"Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance."
King James Version (KJV)
3Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth for ever. 4Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous. 5A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion. 6Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. 7He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD. 8His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies. 9He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour.

At a very sad time in my life, you made me very happy. You were truly an inspiration to me and my family. Everything you did for us was absolutely perfect and I know Lou would have been very pleased."

Imagine the terror of being trapped behind a less-than-stable wall of misshapen stones, alone, and at the mercy of a highly-trained assassin? It is so terrifying that the average moviegoer may not be able to relate. "The Wall" tries mightily to have us experience that fear, along with Sergeant Allen Isaac (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and Staff Sergeant Shane Matthews (John Cena), who are caught in this deadly cat-and-mouse game.
Directed by Doug Liman, who has a notable filmography, "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" (2005), "The Bourne Identity" (2002), "Edge of Tomorrow" (2014), and written by first-time screenwriter Dwain Worrell, "The Wall" is billed as a "deadly psychological thriller". And perhaps in the hands of a more experienced screenwriter, it may have been. Because, as we all know if you've been reading my reviews long enough, it's all about the writing.
Worrell's script falls terribly short of its lofty goal. Though we never see the Iraqi sniper, his voice is heard through Isaac's headpiece. At first, the sergeant doesn't realize he's speaking to his mortal enemy. He's trying desperately to reach someone from his base, requesting medical attention and rescue.
But, alas, it's his nemesis, who is quiet, patient and seemingly interested in Isaac's thoughts and opinions. His attempt to befriend Isaac unnerves the rattle American, which makes him even more determined to rescue Matthews and himself.
And that is the downfall of "The Wall". The intensity and desperation never reaches the fever pitch necessary to make this entire situation believable. First off, Matthews' unwillingness to stay put and not endanger himself or Isaac is suspect. I would like to think that our snipers are better trained than what is demonstrated here, but I may be wrong.
The overwhelming sense of dread is so palpable that "The Wall" becomes exceedingly depressing. The only light moment in the entire film comes when Matthews shakes his booty --- and trust me, Cena has a great booty. It's a sweet and endearing moment in an otherwise relentlessly sad movie.
Taylor-Johnson is a truly gifted actor. His performance in last year's "Nocturnal Animals" was superb. But when actors are hampered by the material, it is not their fault. Taylor-Johnson is as true to his role as humanly possible, but without the heightened peril, and true psychological torture, "The Wall" crumbles.
Cena is terrific, but alas, his role is truncated. Do not despair, I am convinced we will be seeing a great deal more of him in the future.
Opinion: Wait for DVD
War movies never seem to go out of style, but typically they involve hordes of soldiers on opposite sides trying to maim and kill each other. "The Wall" is a different animal in the genre. Essentially there are only two soldiers present for most of the film, so it was up to director Doug Liman, screenwriter Dwain Worrell, and actors Aaron Taylor-Johnson and John Cena to create a scenario that would hold an audience's attention. They succeed.
For 81 minutes, Liman and his crew have fashioned an often gripping view of a life-and-death struggle between Staff Sergeant Matthews (Cena), Sergeant Isaac (Taylor-Johnson) and an unseen enemy --- although he is heard via Isaac's earpiece --- bent on killing the duo.
The actual wall that Isaac hides behind to shield himself from the Iraqi sniper is a third character with a life of its own. The crumbling stone structure changes its facade as the movie progresses, victimized by enemy gunfire.
Shot in Super 16mm in a desert area near Los Angeles that easily could be taken for an Iraqi or Afghan battleground, the cast and crew of "The Wall" had to endure many days of extreme heat, high winds and a virtual dust bowl to make this movie.
Cena and Taylor-Johnson bring Worrell's script to life, especially Taylor-Johnson who had to act alone for the majority of the film. The 26-year-old Brit, who won a Golden Globe for last year's "Nocturnal Animals", is excellent in this role. His torturous dilemma made me cringe at times, as in one scene where he has to extract a bullet from his shattered knee.
We're never sure if Matthews and/or Isaac will be rescued by U.S. forces, or if Isaac's frantic messages are even getting through. But I can tell you "The Wall" has a surprise ending many diehard fans of war films won't see coming.
Opinion: See It Now!

A Labs and TMW Unlimited collaboration, the tech team supported Labs on producing the platform for a truly unique experience.
Activision (client) were releasing the latest version of their ever popular "Skylanders" franchise and introducing a new character named "Painyatta". Labs decided to play on the name of the new character by having a tweet powered Piñata, and would promote the game through a live event.
For the live event, a custom "Painyatta" piñata was created and for every accepted tweet using the #HitPainyatta hashtag, the piñata would receive a hit by an Arduino powered bat. The prospective tweeters could watch the event via a livestream and any prizes knocked out of the piñata by their tweet would be sent to them.
Whilst Roo Williams (TMW Labs) and Tim at ELK planned and executed the physical build it was the responsibility of myself and our tech team to provide the Twitter integration supported by a bespoke CMS for moderation.
The tweets were collected by our service using the Twitter API and then listed on an internal CMS for live moderation. This would avoid any un-suitable tweets.
Node.js was used to build the moderation platform and also control the tweet collection. The moderator would select suitable tweets and push them to a approved queue, which then broadcasted each to a large ticker visible by everyone displaying the user's name and their Twitter message.
The whole event was broadcasted live by a 3rd party and generated a huge amount of social trending with celebrities even getting involved. The client was extremely happy with the result and on going social media generated by the competition.

(And her parents are both gorgeous, too!) My daughter Ellie LOVES baby E, and sat beside me as I edited parts of this session proclaiming, "I LOVE that baby!"

A heart for adventure.
How in the world is it possible to live in Paradise, a tropical city filled with warm breezes that you don't ever foresee yourself wanting to leave (that, mind you, you had a straight up hissy FIT about moving to in the first place that your husband reminds you of often) yet still yearn to live in another locale? MULTIPLE places, in fact.
Unless you're romantically straddling the border like the scene in that Nicholas Sparks movie where Mandy Moore is dying or something, you can't be in two cities in once, but somehow my heart always is. It has never left Europe ever since I studied abroad in France 10 years ago, has trickled over to Thailand where I feel strangely comfortable, has found a home in Hawai'i, and still considers Charlotte, North Carolina "where I'm from", although I'm not. You know that saying you "leave a piece of your heart everywhere you go?", well it's painfully real for me. I have to remind myself to appreciate the places I have seen, the constant tug at my heart to adventure more and the future of what I am yet to see, all while fighting against the folly of discontent.
A scripture I stumbled upon while cozy on a train that was quickly gliding us through the snow covered alps of Switzerland in December, I couldn't relate any more and was clueless that this desire was even a folly. I've always known I have always wanted to see more, experience the perfect day and push to see touch and eat everything around me in a city, even to the point of carelessly exhausting others. Here I was in Europe, a place filled to the brim with inspiring colors, endless cuisine and eye catching fashion and I still WANTED MORE. MORE MORE MORE. What on earth.
While I realize this seed planted deep within me pushing me to go out into the world is one that is good and from God, I also needed to recognize the potential danger in being discontent in the moments where my mission is here at home. While I am sure my true home is scattered in cities and apartments and villages all across the world, I have to find content in the days spent rolling up my sleeves and working hard in lieu of exploration and dream of the next moment abroad, not simply wait on it.
All this talking, I think I may wind up a legit missionary. Uh oh. I said it. Also, I am excited about blogging again, if you couldn't already tell. Welcome to my online diary! You'll hear it here first as my thoughts unfold, in legit real time. #sorrynotsorry

Safety Not Guaranteed (2012) ★★★ 1/2
Directed by Colin Trevorrow (FilmDistrict)
Just as Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is probably the best film you'll ever see about Abe Lincoln hunting vampires, Colin Trevorrow's feature debut, Safety Not Guaranteed, is probably the cutest indie romantic-comedy about time travel. And despite playing it considerably safer than the title suggests, the premiere script of Derek Connolly, which won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at Sundance, is the basis for an oddly fresh film, making it one of the year's more pleasant theater experiences.
Mark Duplass (who co-produced the film, along with his brother, Jay) plays a man named Kenneth Calloway. He has just submitted a classified ad to a local newspaper. It reads in the following way – "Wanted: Somebody to go back in time with me. This is not a joke. You'll get paid after we get back. Must bring your own weapons. I have only done this once before. Safety not guaranteed."
In a grand quest to prove the investigative value of print journalism (not exactly, but you catch my drift), magazine intern Darius Britt (Aubrey Plaza) and a similarly positioned, geeky Indian guy named Arnau (Karan Soni) are brought along by writer Jeff Schwensen (Jake M. Johnson) to do an article about Kenneth, only to find that Jeff has an agenda of his own. Meanwhile, Darius pretends to respond to Kenneth's article, not only becoming his faux partner, but also one she comes to connect with on a far deeper level.
Darius has lost her mother at an early age, was never able to fit in as a teenage student, and now sees little promise in her future. Kenneth has had similar experiences, but with a simple twist. He can time travel. Or can he? In addition, is he mentally disturbed, or just plain weird? There is consistent joy in seeing this relationship develop, as two people who feel isolated from society come to acknowledge their regrets together, and discuss reversing them. Much is also found in the youthful abilities of Aubrey Plaza (who appears on TV's Parks and Recreation) and Karan Soni, along with the hilarious performance of Jake M. Jonhson as the party-centric Jeff. And of course, Duplass does a terrific job as Kenneth, a character who is sympathetic, funny, and certainly worth believing in.
Safety Not Guaranteed, while being the indie flick that every hipster in town will want to see, is also a very effective examination of sex and relationships, the chances that pass us by, time that slips away, regrets that are unfulfillable, and the opportunities that are presently given to us. This is a film made by people just now breaking into the mainstream movie business, and it just goes to show that the less-experienced often have more wisdom than veterans would like to admit. Despite these words of praise, encapsulated by nice ideas about what it means to love and live for today, the movie is never as narratively slick as it would like to be.
Often feeling like a college thesis film, Connolly's script features dialogue that is ever so familiar to viewers of ironic plays upon genre, yet still prompts laughter on a majority of these occasions. The characters also feel reminiscent of something we have seen not too long ago, yet it is quite clear that they have been articulated just as Connolly wanted them to be, and as his story progresses, it is difficult not to empathize with each, and enjoy their presence onscreen.
Meanwhile, the familiar elements that the film satirizes (martial arts training, "government agents," etc.), come across much like the rest of Safety Not Guaranteed; they always feel a bit artificial, yet are usually worthy of our quiet laughter as the film moves along at a thoroughly entertaining clip. Colin Trevorrow also does wonderfully solid work behind the camera, despite how the polished, digital cinematography melds awkwardly with the predictable eccentricities of Connolly's screenplay. Luckily, the two jive together well enough to find the heart of Safety Not Guaranteed, which beats just as strong as the satisfyingly compiled structure of Connolly's narrative.
Although this clever presentation may make it difficult for one to remain unsatisfied, the screenplay is never quite as dangerous as it could've been. This is 75% romantic-comedy and 25% science-fiction, and it doesn't take long to realize how heartfelt and intelligent the film actually is. Based on a real classified ad, we mentally connect these outrageous events to reality, which makes the overall package even funnier. And most of the time, this is exactly where the film wants to be.
Rarely will you not have a smile on your face, and when exposed to such a perfect blend of one-liners and situational comedy, it is likely that you will find some moments hilarious. But as the film begins to introduce more time travel elements, it never truly goes down a path that makes them seem well-explored. There was an opportunity here to utilize a more complex narrative in order to match the intellectual with the emotional, or even accentuate the latter. To some extent, this is accomplished (we are even teased throughout a sufficiently unpredictable third act), but would have been more effective had the filmmakers moved along a zanier tangent.
This is no Primer, the narrative genius of Shane Carruth's twisted piece of sci-fi making it the king of independent time travel films. Safety Not Guaranteed, while being a film about time travel, couldn't have moved in a further direction. It is a film that uses time travel to proclaim the importance of what is occurring right now in these characters' lives – what they have lost, what they hope to gain, the possibility for companionship, and the desire to live fulfilling lives. It's a sweet chance to see budding talent at work, hopefully by those who will one day make more cutting-edge fare. In the present, it's charming, weird, thought-provoking, low-key, and lovely. I see myself revisiting it in the near future. For others, perhaps those who have felt as betrayed by life as Darius or Kenneth, it may even be something worth loving.

According to some websites around the internet, there are "signature" trade marks to ensure authenticity of Manolo Blahnik's shoes, high-end luxury shoes popularized by "Sex and the City".
- No embossed serial numbers.
- Authentic white dust bags with black lettering. The box is also white and black.
- Leather sole.
Manolo Blahnik & Marcia Patmos' 2011/12 Spring Sandles made from waste Tilapia Skins and other natural materials.
… more to come but here is an interesting case for the perception of materials verses the cost of these shoes.

The controversial proposed Brooklyn-Queens Connector (BQX) streetcar project got back on track yesterday with the 42,000-member strong Transport Workers Union (TWU) Local 100 holding a rally at NYCHA's Red Hook Houses in support of the transportation plan.
According to the plan, the BQX will start in Sunset Park and will run through Gowanus, Red Hook, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn Heights, Downtown Brooklyn, DUMBO, Vinegar Hill, The Navy Yard, Williamsburg, Greenpoint before heading to Long Island City and ending in Astoria. The 16-mile route along the East River waterfront corridor is planned to run 24-hours-a-day with five-minute intervals at peak hours with stops a half-mile apart.

What should the measure of success be for players? Number of notches? Quality of notches? Quantity / quality of sex?
The better my game, the less new notches I get. When you have sex with a growing number of girls, your rolodex gets large. Do I call the girl who is fun and knows how to do the anal move on me that I discovered in Brazil, or do I roll the dice in the field?
There is a large time / money / energy cost to new notches, and many times they are a total bust. I say build a pleasant stable and let that ride until the girls get tired of your shit. Or vice versa. Even lions don't hunt all the time.

I whipped up a quick card to scoot in under the wire over at Freshly Made Sketches before it closes later today. Here's their sketch.
Here's what I did with it.
I just got the Animal Expedition Designer Series Paper and decided to get a head start on a baby card I'll need fairly soon. I don't have the coordinating stamp set because it's not often I need a baby card but these critters are easy to fussy cut from the DSP. The kangaroo with the koala in its pouch was perfect to trim out for a baby card. The baby's parents know they're having a boy so I used a Balmy Blue background circle, cut with the Stitched Shapes Framelits, to back up the animals. The Climbing Vine Embossing Folder is a good background for these critters and so is the Call Me Clover card stock. For the square element the Burlap Background stamped was inked up with Crumb Cake ink and stamped onto Whisper White Card Stock. It reminded me a little of blanket texture so I used one of the scallop squares in the Layering Squares Framelits to cut it. The sentiment from Better Together was heat embossed in White on some Blueberry Bushel Card Stock and punched out with the Triple Banner Punch. This little kangaroo will carry our congratulations soon!
Inside the card is another of the critters from the DSP that I fussy cut out!
I spent most of my free time this weekend cutting out a quilt project. I'm going to participate in a quilt-along that starts in a few weeks and I wanted to be ready to go. I just have a couple more things to do and I'll have a jump start! I did make time to get a couple cards made though. In the meantime I've got guests coming for dinner tonight and I have to get to the grocery store! Have a wonderful day!! - Dawn

From now until the general election, our focus switches from the European Parliament elections (where we received over 1.2 million votes, from people like you) to the general election.
Our three "target constituencies" are Brighton Pavilion (Caroline Lucas), Norwich South (Adrian Ramsay) and Lewisham Deptford (Darren Johnson).
Before then, the Norwich North by-election will be the first by-election where the national media take the prospects of a Green win seriously. We have a great deal of work to do, and we are asking you to swing behind this effort in a big way, as other parties (most notably the Liberal Democrats) do in similar circumstances.
We could gain general election credibility nationwide from a good result in the seat.
Here is just one of the large number of bullish press stories that have appeared about the byelection –
The Greens' chances of doing well in Norwich North have already been mentioned in the Times, Guardian, Telegraph, and on the BBC.
Can you help us to compete strongly in Norwich North?
Please consider offering us some of your time, or money, or both:
We need lots of help on numerous tasks in our office and on the streets. Please come and stay with us: we can put volunteers up, it will be fun, and you can learn on the job from the expert Norwich team! Please call us on 01603 611909 if you can offer us help.
We need donations to cover our campaign costs. We need to raise £10,000 in the next month, if we are to have any chance of even beginning to compete on a level playing field with the old three Westminster parties in this vital election. We need to get the Green message heard now, and we need to build now toward getting a strong Green voice into Westminster.
Please give what you can. £20 buys 2000 leaflets for us to deliver to target voters. £250 buys an ad for us in the Norwich Evening News. £1000 buys a prime billboard location for the entire duration of the campaign.
Send a cheque now (payable to 'Norwich Green Party') to:
The Treasurer, Norwich Green Party, 27 Clarendon Road, Norwich, NR2 2PN
Let's make history, startle the old parties, and give ourselves a real shot at electing the first ever Green Party MP in Norwich North …
Thank you for your help in this crucial project!

Press Officer
Green Party of England and Wales
