Michael Giacchino talks Jupiter Ascending (2015)
Oh Jupiter Ascending….if I could describe this movie in one word it would be potential. This movie had the potential to be so incredibly awesome. Think about it: in a world where reboots, remakes, sequels and franchises are the norm in Hollywood, it's very rare to find a film with a wholly original concept.
And the concept sounds great on paper: the galaxy is ruled by a group of alien royal dynasties, who harvest the life forces of evolved planets in order to remain perpetually young themselves.
An ordinary human girl, Jupiter Jones, finds out that due to her genetic makeup, she is actually the heiress to the planet Earth. However, the alien Balem, one of the sons of the previous owner of the planet, wants Earth for himself, as Earth is meant to be harvested next.Jupiter finds herself plunged into interstellar intrigue with the fate of planet Earth at stake.

It sounds really good, it SHOULD have been really good, and yet….despite amazing visuals and a gorgeous score from Michael Giacchino (more on that in a minute), this film fell FLAT and I mean really flat!!! Portions of the dialogue were cringe-worthy, and the performance of several actors was criticized as wooden, flat and generally not as good as it could have been. In other words, Jupiter Ascending launched into theaters and then was quietly never heard of again.
One of the few bright spots in this film was the score, written as I said by Michael Giacchino. In this interview that I discovered, Giacchino explained that when the Wachowskis approached him about scoring this film, they actually asked him to write the music BEFORE the film had been shot, so they could edit the film around the music.
This is rarely seen in the world of film music, as normal practice is to make the film first and THEN create the musical score. In effect then, the Wachowski's were asking Michael Giacchino to create a "symphony" for Jupiter Ascending that would then be edited into a proper film score.
While I can't necessarily recommend the film itself, I do recommend checking out the soundtrack to this film (see the link above) and take a few moments to enjoy the music that Giacchino worked so hard to create. It always hurts when a great score is attached to a less-than-stellar film. But, such are the risks of being a film composer. Enjoy the interview
(I apologize for the background noise, it sounds like they filmed in a restaurant)

A bull elk who injured two women in Estes Park Thursday morning was put down by Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW), said CPW Public Information Officer Jennifer Churchill.
The women were injured in two separate incidents and both were transported to the hospital and have since been released.
In the first incident, which occurred at 7:24 a.m. on Filbey Ct., a woman was viewing a group of cow elk when the bull approached from behind and knocked her down. The second incident, which took place at 8:11 a.m. at Performance Park, involved a jogger who came upon the elk unexpectedly on a jogging trail and was chased.
Churchill said the elk had been previously tagged and was known to have been involved in similar incidents in the past, including an incident last year in which it gored another elk on the Estes Park Golf Course.
Churchill said neither woman was doing anything wrong at the time of the attack.
"This animal has a long history and injuring humans is not something we can tolerate," Churchill said.

International Lighthouse and Lightship Weekend
The International Lighthouse and Lightship Weekend (ILLW) is an annual event held on the third full weekend of August each year. The event was the brainchild of John Forsyth and Mike Dalrymple who were members of the Ayr Amateur Radio Group in Scotland. The event, which started in 1998, has developed into an international gathering of amateur radio operators from an estimated 95 countries.[1] Concurrent with this event the Association of Lighthouse Keepers conduct their Lighthouse Heritage Weekend whereby lighthouse managers and keepers all around the world are encouraged to open their doors to the public for a viewing of their lighthouse and its history. The event is currently managed by an Australia amateur radio operator, Kevin Mulcahy vk2ce, who has been involved with it since 1998 and who now owns the domain name and web site. A small team of volunteers assist in the running of the weekend activity. Major amateur radio organizations such as the Radio Society of Great Britain, the Amateur Radio Radio League of America, the Wireless Institute of Australia support and promote the weekend which accounts for the large number of countries that participate each year.
The objective of ILLW event is stated as "to promote public awareness of lighthouses and lightships and their need for preservation and restoration, to promote amateur radio and to foster International goodwill."[2] A classic example of what should not be allowed to happen to a lighthouse is shown here on YouTube featuring the lighthouse remains on Culebrita Island[3] in Puerto Rico. Unfortunately quite a lot of these magnificent structures are suffering from neglect and vandalism and it is the function of this event to make people aware of the need to conserve these historic aids to navigation before their existence is lost.
The basic format of the event is that a local amateur radio club will set up a radio station either in, or near to, a lighthouse. They will then operate from that station over the whole or part of the weekend. The goal is to contact other amateur stations, particularly those operating from other lighthouse sites. Visiting public are invited to watch the operators and even use the equipment under supervision while visiting the lighthouse. YouTube[4] has numerous video clips about the weekend which have been submitted by participants.

Commack center has calendar for the ages
Pictures of puppies make popular wall calendars. But those young dogs won't teach you any new tricks.
Residents of the Gurwin Jewish-Fay J. Lindner assisted living community in Commack have put together a 2013 calendar for the ages. Twelve residents, ages 82-101, posed for the calendar, titled "From Generation to Generation" (or "L'dor v'dor" in Hebrew).
Each page includes words of wisdom and life lessons from the Gurwin residents. For example, 87-year-old David Robinson, a World War II vet and the calendar's "Mr. April," passes along his secret of how to survive no matter how tough the times: Keep a positive outlook and "Smile!"
The calendar costs $12.95. It is available at Book Revue in Huntington or directly from Gurwin. For information, call 631-715-8268 or email email@example.com.

PSA_LEVEL-UP_QNR35. Subbu and Vinay run 100 metres in 20 seconds and 25 seconds respectively. By what distance will Subbu beat Vinay in a race of hundred metre.
a)10 m
b) 25 m
c) 12 m
d) 20 m
Ans: As you can see that while Subbu finishes 100 metres in 20 seconds, Vinay is still running & takes 5 seconds more to reach the finishing line.
In 5 seconds, how much does Vinay have to still run?
Speed of Vinay = 100/25 = 4 m/s
In 5 seconds, Vinay runs = 5*4 = 20 metres. Option (d).
Thus, you can say that Subbu will beat Vinay in a 100 m race by a distance of 20 metres.

Due diligence is at the heart of any successful deal. The resulting information is invaluable in knowing and understanding all sides and implications of a potential transaction. And, as cash investments increase, business owners and investors are placing renewed emphasis on identifying, qualifying and optimizing deals.
There are a number of strategies that create liquidity without selling the entire company or even a controlling interest. Among these strategies is the option to package and sell select assets of the company. RGL Advisors articulates issues and considerations in evaluating alternative liquidity strategies.
Professional evaluations of the fairness of an offer, known as fairness opinions, are increasingly being requested and used in private company transactions. In this paper we will explore four scenarios in middle market transactions when a fairness opinion may be recommended and differentiate a fairness opinion from other forms of valuations.
Applying predictive customer analytics across a portfolio could reap significant returns for the fund, including a significant increase in the valued of carried interest.
Intangible assets often represent a large percentage of a company's overall value. There is both art and science to valuing intangible assets as well as knowing how to use the valuation process as a due diligence tool and to help delineate post-acquisition strategy. RGL Advisors examines the practical implications of intangible assets and their valuation […]

Seasoning the Raw Ham
Black Forest Ham is a very particular variety of ham which is produced in the Black Forest region of Germany. Production of Black Forest Ham can take as long as three months. It begins with seasoning. Using the hind leg of the pig, the raw ham is salted and then seasoned with garlic, coriander, pepper, juniper berries and other seasonings.
Video of the Day
Dry Curing Takes Place
The ham is dry-cured for two weeks. Curing is a process in which meat is prepared for preservation by salting or smoking. After the initial curing, the salt is scraped off the ham and then dry cured for another two weeks.
Cold Smoked
The ham is cold smoked at 77 degrees Fahrenheit (25 degrees Celsius) for several weeks. The ham is generally smoked by burning fir or other pine brush and sawdust. It is during the smoking process that the ham acquires its deep red color and the black coloring of the skin. Traditionally, this black coloring was acquired by dipping the ham in beef blood, but this is no longer the case. Smoking is also how the ham gets its flavor.
Beware of Imitators
Much of the Black Forest Ham we purchase in grocery stores is not going to be the genuine article. In the European Union, anything that is sold as "Black Forest Ham" must be produced in Germany's Black Forest. This is not the case in U.S. or Canada where typically any ham product can be labeled as Black Forest Ham. Such hams bear little or no resemblance to the genuine product. True Black Forest Ham should have a black skin, a dark red coloring and a very pronounced flavor.

11 Ways to Prevent Lead Poisoning
Simple tips to keep you and your family safe from lead poisoning:
- If your home or apartment was built before 1978, have everyone — children and adults — tested for lead poisoning. It's a simple blood test. Do not let your doctor talk you out of the test.
- From a total house renovation to a small painting job, you owe it to your family, yourself, your neighbors and your pets to have your pre-1978 built home tested for lead. The EPA recommends homeowners hire a state-licensed testing company— one that does not work for the contractor — to test dust samples from floors and window sills. Find out what a lead inspection entails.
- Before any renovation that disturbs lead paint, be certain your tradespeople are EPA-certified in the Renovation Repair & Painting rule.
- If tradespeople tell you they are not EPA-certified in RRP and that there is nothing to worry about, do not hire them. Also, remind them that if caught, they face stiff fines of $32,000 and possible jail time.
- Read the RRP rule to be sure your contractor is following correct procedures.
- Do-It-Yourselfers (DIYers): Read the RRP rule for lead safe work practices to keep yourself, your loved ones, and your neighbors safe from the harmful effects of lead dust poisoning.
- Retest your home for lead after the work is done to be sure there is no lead dust residue. Unfortunately, even a thorough cleaning of the work area and air vents cannot guarantee that all lead dust has been eliminated.
- Test your water annually. Lead can be found in public water supplies, private wells, pipes and plumbing fixtures.
- If you see neighbors tackling DIY projects that disturb lead paint, ask if they are aware of the RRP rule and if they are taking proper precautions. If they are not and don't stop working, you can report them to the local EPA office.
- Stay informed. Check out the latest news about lead dust and other environmental hazards in our blog.
- Join RTK Environmental Group in protecting your home and community from lead dust. Share what you know about lead poisoning prevention.
Advice for DIYers
The EPA encourages DIYers to use lead safe work practices, even though the Renovation, Repair and Painting rule does not extend to homeowners. Unknowingly, DIYers can poison themselves, their children, their pets, and their neighbors.
Lead is a toxic metal, harmful to everyone, but especially children, pregnant women and pets. It enters the body through inhalation or swallowing, and annually affects more than 300,000 children younger than six in the United States.
Step One: Test your home for lead.
Step Two: Take the time to read the EPA's Steps to Lead Safe Renovation, Repair and Painting. There, you will learn lead safe work practices, including how to:
- Minimize dust by misting surfaces before sanding, scraping, drilling, and cutting;
- Properly pry and pull apart materials instead of pounding and hammering them;
- Properly cover the floor or ground within the work area with plastic sheeting to prevent contamination and contain the dust generated by disturbing lead-based paint;
- Warn other people and pets to stay away;
- Clean all tools and equipment, and the work area, using HEPA-filtered vacuum cleaners at the end of each day;
- Leave lead dust behind by changing out of your work clothes before you leave the work area.
True, no one is looking over your shoulder when you're doing work in your own home, but it is hard to justify not taking precautions, especially if there are small children, pregnant women or pets in the home. Consider your neighbors, too, who can easily become contaminated from lead dust if proper EPA standards are not followed.

Shoreditch has changed. When I first moved to the UK it was the edgiest London neighborhood. Now gentrification has set in and the hipsters have moved north. But there's still a lot going on in the area, and if you're as interested in seeing the changes as I've been, today I bring you my guide to Shoreditch, London.
Guide to Shoreditch, London
I've always associated Shoreditch with the Old Street Roundabout. Formerly a bleak spot on the London map, this part of the neighborhood has seen a number of more attractive buildings go up in recent years. Add to that hip pop-up shops in the tube station in its core, and the doughnut of depression has become a circle of new life.
Down the road, Old Street itself retains its colorful street art as it leads into the heart of the area. The junction with Great Eastern Street always has something new on the corner, complete with tables spilling into the sidewalk.
Great Eastern Street itself is perennially full of new restaurants and cafes, and Rivington Street remains a mainstay of trendy shops and bars.
Up north, Hoxton Square retains its cool vibe despite chain restaurants moving in. Underground bars like Happiness Forgets have helped uphold its atmosphere even after the closure of the famous White Cube gallery.
Over on Shoreditch High Street and up Kingsland Road there's always somewhere to check out. Whether it's a street food market or a new-to-me Vietnamese restaurant, I never fail to find something delicious.
And that's to say nothing of the side streets and museums. Walking around Arnold Circus feels like stepping back in time, and visiting the Geffrye Museum—which has recreated British domestic interiors from 1600 to the present—is literally doing so.
Redchurch Street is a happy medium between big and small, what with it being a side street with lots of shops and places to eat. It might be the biggest sign of Shoreditch's gentrification, though, with J.Crew and other mainstream stores having moved in recently.
But perhaps that's inevitable in a city like London, where things are always changing and neighborhoods reinventing themselves. I'm sure in another 10 years Shoreditch will look different again, but if it keeps the hip vibe it's managed to retain over the last 10 I'm sure it will still be a place worth exploring.
Have you spent time here? What would you include in a guide to Shoreditch, London?
Pin it!
12 Comments on Lady's Hip Guide to Shoreditch
I grew up in Shoreditch over 30 years ago so it is very strange going back and seeing all the changes but I suppose this is happening all over London. I haven't been to the Geffrye museum since I was a child but I'm going to make the effort to go there this summer 🙂
i lived in this area for 6 years and I love it! I know it can be the butt of a few jokes, the "hipster haters" love a good dig at Shoreditch. But it's truly one of the most eclectic and exciting areas of London. Things change so rapidly, there's always a new cafe, bar or restaurant to try out and I love all the little night markets and pop up events too. If anyone is visiting London for the first time I tell them to escape the westend tourist bubble and head east to see the real beating heart of London.
I love Shoreditch! Such a fun place with so much going on. I used to live up the road in Stokey.
I just love the Geffrye Museum! Such an amazing place. The building and the parc are gorgeous. The museum itself is a step back in times. And it's free so I never miss the opportunity to pop in every time I'm in London.
Also when in the neighbourhood, I usually book a table at Dishoom in the verandah! ☺
Ah gotta love Shoreditch! Once walked out at Old Street and one of the pop up shops was just a full blown jazz bar with a 5-piece band taking it away! Also my favourite museum in London – the Dennis Severs House!
I recently visited London for the first time and absolutely loved it! Shoreditch was perhaps my favorite area. This is a great guide and I'll definitely use it next time I'm in the area!

Critical illness insurance coverage is a comparatively new kind of policy that's frequently misinterpreted. Today, we'll clarify what it's, and just what it covers.
So How Exactly Does Critical Illness Insurance Work?
Critical illness is comparable to term existence insurance, except it's compensated out when you're identified as having a disease taught in policy, instead of being compensated out upon dying. However, many people confuse a renters insurance policy with disability insurance, which substitutes your earnings should you become disabled.
Illness insurance, like term existence insurance, is compensated inside a lump sum payment, for anyone who is identified as having a pre-defined disease for example cancer. You choose how this amount is going to be spent – many people place it into additional treatment (especially should there be some treatment options that aren't included in provincial healthcare), others choose to set time aside try to devote to family, in order to travel.
Just like many insurance products, a renters insurance policy plan posseses an extensive insurance quote, application and underwriting procedure that the insurer analyzes an email psychic reading an insurance policy and just like any insurance plan, a vital illness policy includes both benefits and drawbacks.
Let us take particular notice in the benefits and drawbacks of a renters insurance policy.
Pros of Critical Illness Insurance
There are many strengths:
Funds that will help where needed: The lump sum payment you obtain if you're identified as having a vital illness will help you to improve treatment and, hopefully, fully recovery in some instances. You may also spend these funds on other needs or projects (for example travel or taking products off your bucket list).
Protection for your own personel business: For those who have your personal business, you might have to work part-time, after being identified as having a vital illness (reduced work hrs are typical when extensive treatment is needed). It closes the financial gap produced from your reduced hrs at the company. Using the funds, you can hire somebody propose together with your business.
Stacking protection: Unlike disability insurance, critical illness coverage is "stacking". With disability insurance, coverage is restricted since it is according to your earnings, and also you cannot review to limit even though you have a lot of disability policies. You are able to, though, have a lot of policies with different coverage levels of different illnesses. For those who have, for instance, two policies with advantages of $250,000 and $300,000, you can aquire a $550,000 payout whenever you claim.
Cons of Critical Illness Insurance
Costly: This kind of insurance plan isn't cheap. For example, a phrase 10 insurance plan with $500,000 coverage (Term 10 means an insurance policy that covers you for ten years) for any 35-years old non-smoking male with no pre-conditions costs around $180/ month (exemplary quote) whereas a phrase 10 existence insurance plan with coverage of $1,000,000 for the similar person costs around $50.
Definitions matter: If your diagnosed disease, like a cardiac arrest, isn't aligned with the phrase this illness within the policy, your claim very can be not compensated.
Doesn't cover you instantly: Policy typically has a waiting period (e.g. 3 months) and you have no coverage.
Payout isn't immediate: If you're identified as having a vital illness, there's "survival period" – (e.g. thirty days). Should you die within the period, your claim is going to be not compensated.
Critical illness insurance provides solid coverage to be suddenly identified as having a significant disease, however this coverage comes at a price. It's wise to utilize an insurance coverage broker to obtain a critical illness insurance quote and to try to get an insurance policy. Brokers get access to multiple insurance providers and can help you travel through the complex application, particularly if you have medical pre-conditions.

The blogger showed a color Malaysian city.
Tired of gray days, black Monday and the white snow? This is easily remedied. Now you will see a riot of color — will not find it.
Photos Of Ilya Stepanov
1. Here it would seem, and so they are all bright, colorful, sunsets and sunrises, incredible fruits, plants, flowers. So because there is no need! Green wall and red — what is it, flowers? And the blind girl (and maybe guy) plays a strange musical instrument.
2. And next to the bench just hurts my eyes from the color!
3. There's even a rickshaw in India, shabby, and some festive kids similar to colorful butterflies. In Melaka in southern Malaysia.
4. Hike here and surfers too. I for some reason this Volkswagen only associated with surfing.
5. And yet a lot of cyclists. Moreover, the pedal twist people of all ages, from young to old.
6. Times these houses sell in the shops, so it's a local feature. Just walked around the streets and realized that really, similar to Chinese houses are full.
8. In General, the Chinese are almost the majority of the local population. It's not just the Chinese quarters, and almost the entire city.
9. Malacca was founded at the beginning of the 15th century Sumatran Prince Parameswara, who immediately formed an Alliance with the Chinese to protect him from the neighbouring States of Siam. The Chinese seized the opportunity and quickly filled a city. Later Malacca was several times captured by the Europeans and was then a Portuguese colony, then Dutch, then British. Every colonists built their buildings, fortifications and temples, of which something has survived to the present day with varying degrees of preservation.
10. There's even a Gothic Cathedral, it is true, looks like a cardboard model. And another reminder about the Netherlands — channels here just like in Amsterdam!
11. On the banks of the numerous channels gestisci and hostels, shelter all sorts of hippies and creative mind.
14. Graffiti here is also insanely bright and colorful!
15. And yet there is a large number of temples — Chinese , Buddhist, Christian, Muslim… Feels mixed up here, the blood thoroughly.
16. No, it's not Chinese noodles and goreng some. Then what?
18. It's just the ashes from the burnt candles.
21. See a pair of lovers? I spotted them from afar and wanted them in the frame to fit. Not much happened, but Oh well … Surprisingly, after a couple of hours walking in a completely different area of the city, I again met them and entered )
23. Darkened very quickly, as is usually the case in tropical countries. Lit up with countless Chinese lanterns.
25. Again I came across these rickshaw butterfly. At night they glow unbearably fantastic flowers! For lovers — the most suitable transport.

There are a lot of services available especially for seniors in terms of rehabilitative home care. Besides staying in an expensive hospital, senior home care is the best option for receiving medical service at your own home. This is the best options for helping the senior remain independent and comfortable.
Many families and seniors are now choosing the home care services than long term residential facilities. However, assistant living services or nursing homes offer round the clock care for the patients, but these services are normally taken into account if there are any kind of unplanned or emergencies situations. These services do not provide comfort to the seniors.
Home care services are now growing very fast. This could simply mean that seniors are more comfortable living in their own homes than in nursing homes. The best senior care Boise Idaho not only provides you the ongoing security for the patient, but also gives you peace of mind and support for the caregivers.
In order to qualify for senior home care, the patient need ongoing specified medical service and has to be considered homebound. Patient under this category usually are chronically ill or physically disabled. These patients might be recovering from conditions like stroke, surgery, diseases of the nervous system, heart attack or cancer. These patients might have undergone procedures like hip or knee replacement.

Link O'Day: History, the History of Computers, and the History of Computers in Education
This is a walk down memory lane for anybody who has used computers in schools as students or as educators. How much do you recall? I am doing some research on the history of computers in schools and frankly I can personally remember a startling number of these events. When you think about it, there has been a great deal of change in a short period of time.

Oil Spill Solutions
If you need to grab something while you're out on your bike, this basket will be of great assistance.
Power of Focused Attention
I was inspired to write this as a hub for two reasons:
One, I feel that the energy behind our focus on the situation is a little misplaced. It seems all that I have seen are people scurrying about, blaming others, being angry at BP, and/or generally worrying and talking about how bad it is. Everyday more stories pop up about how much money is being lost and how the Gulf Coast is ruined. These responses actually do much more detriment to the situation than anything. Our worried, angry and blaming energy are but putting more negativity into a consciousness that is already saturated with it. BP, the Federal Government and those in charge of mitagating this scenario do not need to feel any more of it than they already do. Nothing can get accomplished in an atomsphere of vigilant, judgemental watching. There should be a more relaxed and supprotive environment in order to foster practical and plausible ideas for the immediate future. If we do want to see things get better, we must focus on them being better. It sounds like a paradox because we will want to look at the current state of things and say, "See! It's not working!" Yet, in order to manifest a positive outcome we must first be positive and offer nothing but love, prayer and support.
This may sound like some really airy-fairy BS, but its true! The power of focused attention is real people! There have been studies done about groups of meditators and the effects on the environment they have had. One such study involved a group meeting daily in Washington, D.C.
During their eight week experiment, in the summer of 1993, the rate of violent crime dropped by 23%! The experimenters employed thorough statistical analysis to rule out any other alternatives. The odds of the violent crime rate dropping by mere chance was a whopping 1 in 2 billion. So, if we want it to get better, our individual energies must be more aligned with the possibility of a clean Gulf of Mexico.
Secondly, I feel the blame is misplaced, for sure. It's not Obama's fault, it's not even necessarily BP's. This rig exploding and leaking oil into the Gulf is but a reflection of our, more or less, worldwide addiction to oil. To me, we, the oil consumers are really the ones to blame. When I say we, I am including myself here, so don't get it twisted thinking I'm a hypocrite. The difference between me (and now you) is I realize my role in what has happened.
This fiasco can be likened to our subsconscious minds calling an intervention. Every major war fought in the 20th century (since oil has been around as usable resource) has had oil as a big factor in them. We know, deep down that we have been slowly but surely killing the environment we inhabit by driving so much. We also know there are literally a plethora of new energy technologies out there that would get us off the drill, so to speak. However, these technologies are being blocked by the interests of big oil.
So you may ask, what am I to do? If I don't have access to these technologies, then I have to keep using oil. How would I get to work? To the mall? To visit my loved ones? Keep my lights on? There are small steps you can take. These are more solid, practical ways to use your energy and take responsibility for the current state of affairs on the planet. No, it does not include boycotting BP. That would be trying to help alcoholism by switching from whiskey to bourbon. Although not as easy as offering your positive energy to the situation, these ideas will help tremendously.
First get a bike... or a vespa or Hybrid car if you can afford it. Or use your feet! Just find a way to travel that is using less than you use now. You may be surprised at how a little walking or pedalling will have a lot of benefit to your health. Don't worry, your destination will still be there even if it takes a little longer riding your bike. There are also plenty of public transportation systems available, especially in big cities.
Second, don't take unneccessary trips every week. Trust me, the new Twilight movie will still be as good when it comes out on NetFlix, and making your meals at home not only saves money but is a great way to relax and de-stress.
Finally, start buying your food locally. This puts money in your local economy and also is a monetary vote in favor of food that hasn't used a lot of gas to get shipped across the country. Even better, start your own garden of things you can eat. The work is very fulfilling and satisfying.
I feel that the oil spill has had the effect of not only raising our awareness of how dangerous and stupid offshore drilling is, but it also may have caused a tipping point in terms of getting off the oil in general. My sincere hope is that this hub and these poems will offer energetic and practical ideas and solutions that will guide this to a swift resolution. The following two poems are my personal response to the oil spill.
I know, I'm over two months late here, but it takes time for something like this to grab my attention. Although the media has been saturated with the story, I have not really been tuned into it.
Yet, since it has gone on so long, the other night I wrote two poems with it in mind. The first poem is about our addiction to oil, the second is more or less a prayer that the spill may be resolved safely and quickly.
How will you help with the oil spill?
We're a Winner, Sinner, Whiner, Shriner.
Takes the gang out
to the four star diner.
Numbly bolted, Aptly grin.
Sweat pouring out teeth
Above the chin.
For US, we drive,
forbidden, forlorn,
into shallow pools
where the sandbox is torn.
Recovered, once again, right
Before it's too late.
When the gate closes, we make no mistake
No room to be born
Again, in the womb
so again here we see
How mothers pass form
The great cycle swirls, the tables turn
Giant greasy Baby's feet and
one day we'll learn.
and soon enough,
we'll lift away,
back through birth, death and decay.
Until, we must be in Love,
must be in Love
one day...
Tides flow and ebb for those
whose fortune changes ever so.
Slight of hand underneath mahoganey tables
in high rise glass houses.
A stone's throw away from
justified motivation to lend a heartbeat.
Oh, hallowed breath
let our burdens fade
our eyes open
our lives relax and
our peace be known.
Allow the prime power of
infinite discovery to overflow
into the minds and hearts
of each of those asking.
Now, vibrating at the speed of thought,
enter, do not delay
for by knowing what is not working
we know what does.
Focus us in the present,
present us with visions
of a swift solution
this, I pray.

Nine year old Kyrin Wyatt of Windgap, PA brought in his 11 pound 15 ounce steelhead for Angler Award. It was 30 inches long and had a girth of 18 inches. He caught it at the mouth of Elk Creek on a Flatfish Plug. The color was Fire Tiger.
|Eleven Year old Gary Taylor III of Hillsville, Pa came in with his nice catch. It was 9 pound 10 ounce, 28 ĺ inches long and had a girth of 16 Ĺ inches. He caught it in the Manchester Hole on Walnut Creek using a Pink Trout worm.
The Pennsylvania Steelhead Association had their Annual ďLearn To FishĒ outing on Saturday. They had 17 children show up with their parents. The kids had a good time even though they didnít catch any fish. They had two winners. They were from left to right, Madeline Welch of Erie, Charlotte Nass and her sister Naomi Nass from Bethel. Madeline won the Reel and Naomi won the rod.

J and I watched Valentine's Day movie earlier in Glorietta 4. It was a two and a half hour movie (more or less) and so I brought my pump so I can express some milk for Jack-Jack while I'm gone. Especially since I'm sure he'd drink at least a bottle from the time we left him at home.
Anyway, after eating Takoyaki and cream puff and silvanas, we went to the Family Lounge so that I could express since there were two pumping/nursing stations there. However, when I went in, someone was sitting in one of the rooms, listening to her Ipod, then there were a couple of paper bags in the other room. I decided to wait for the owners of the bag or for the girl just sitting there to notice me waiting for a vacant room.
It was around after five minutes when another woman went in, and then she told off the girl so she could use the room to pump. But the light there was not working, she soon learned from one of the maintenance ladies, with which, she pointed to the other room but the lady pointed out that there were bags there. The maintenance lady transferred the bags to the room with the defective lights. And so one got ahead of my pumping.
Then just as I was about to go and pump in the dark room, a mom went in there to nurse her around two year old daughter. And so I waited. While I was waiting , another mom went in and asked if there was a place to breastfeed.
To cut the story short, in just a few hours, I saw four moms (the last one was on the bus on our way home) who are breastfeeding.
It gave me a nice feeling, that more and more moms are preferring to breastfeed their babies. It really was like going back to basics, like I told my cousin back when she saw me wearing Jack-Jack.
And it all feels just about right.

Our first challenge this week was to transform a piece of paper into a 3D shape - a cone. The children thought long and hard about how to do this, and there were quite a few variations of cones that emerged. Once this had been achieved, challenge number two was to transform their cone shapes into something. The creativity and independent problem solving skills of our Kindergarten students continues to amaze us each week - take a look at what they came up with, below! We had icecreams, volcanoes, a princess hat, a traffic cone, a mega-phone, ball and cup games, horns - even a letter box!

Srinu Kandela and Fola Akinola, Perfume: The Story of a Murderer
Original Story by Patrick Suskund
Game Design Doc by Srinu Kandela and Fola Akinola
Images by Fola Akinola - CG Artist
Set in 18th century France, Perfume relates the story Jean-Baptiste Grenouille a misanthropic master perfumer gifted with an amazing sense of smell. Perfume explores the emotional meaning that scents may carry but above all else it is a story of identity.
Ironically, while Grenouille has a superb nose capable of dissecting any fragrance he doesn't have a scent of his own. So fearing his own oblivion he sets out to make an identity of his own by murdering 25 beautiful girls and extracting their scent to create the perfect perfume.
Game Mechanics:
Armed with the protagonist's fantastic sense of smell, the only way players are able to navigate through the mazes is by periodically inhaling and analyzing their surroundings.
The player starts off in the dark environment called the (VOID) phase. By inhaling, the player opens his "vision" to everything that emits as "scent" within a fixed radius. These scents are represented by light, which illuminates the stage and allows the player to see obstacles, enemies and targets.
Initially when the player initiates an INHALE, all of the scents present in the stage come rushing to the player, bringing about the (CHAOS) phase. This phase is remedied by the (FILTER) phase, whereby the player can filter out specific scents (i.e. filter guards and traps only).
After 30 seconds, the light provided from the INHALE begins to (FADE) back to the (VOID) phase. Thus, the player will need to periodically execute an INHALE in order to continue to navigate the maze, find his target and evade traps.
The sneaking portion of the game can be broken down into two phases hunting and evasion.
The goal of the hunting phase is simple, isolate and track down the girl in each stage from her scent and without getting caught by any guards or traps. Once the player captures the girl we move onto the evasion phase.
During the evasion phase all the guards are on high alert and begin to aggressively patrol the level. During this phase the goal for the player is to take the girl to a safe location from the guards to collect her scent which takes time. After successfully collecting the scent, the player must navigate to the exit.
After completing each level the player is rewarded with a new perfume to help them on their next mission. Each perfume has a unique property that affects the world in different ways. For example one perfume might make the guards think the palyer is one of them for a few seconds. The player is allowed to use these perfumes only once per stage. They are refilled after the player completes or fails the stage.
Upon successful completion Grenouille uses his preserved scents to create a scent of his own - an identity that people acknowledge. However, is it really him that they see?

Go Ninja
14 Clifton Terrace
+44(0)131 337 7704
Overall score: ★★★★★
Go Ninja is sadly now closed 🙁
Disclaimer: In exchange for this post, I dined here free of charge. The opinions expressed in this article remain my own.
Go Ninja is a recent addition to Haymarket's foodie scene. Found just across the road from the train station, this wee sushi bar has shelves bursting with sushi boxes to grab and go – whether you're looking for a quick lunch or something to eat on the train.
Shortly after Go Ninja's opening, I was asked to pop along and put the vegan menu through its paces. Spoiler alert – it's really impressive. Hooray!
Vegan options at Go Ninja
Go Ninja have a huge selection of sushi boxes ready to go, many of which are safe for vegans. At the time of writing, their online menu lists the following options, but there may be even more choices when you visit – the team have done a fantastic job of marking all of their vegan options on display.
Large boxes
- Vegan Supreme Vegan dragon iso, courgette nigiri, inari, kaiso gunkan, enoki maki, cucumber maki, avocado maki and fresh slaw
Medium boxes
- Vegan Delight Courgette nigiri, inari nigiri, kaiso gunkan, avocado maki, cucumber maki and butternut squash maki, served with fukujinzuke pickles
Baby boxes
- Vegan Baby Courgette nigiri, inari nigiri and enoki maki
Salad boxes
- Green Power Avocado bombs served with courgetti and carrots drizzled with lime and olive oil dressing, miso dressed green veg, fresh slaw, coriander dressing and aokappa pickle
Noodle pots
- Veggie Pot Inari, cucumber and enoki served with zero noodles, wakame, carrots, menma, fried bean curd, kimchee, spring onions, lemongrass, red chillies, coriander, lime leaves, miso soup and chilli sesame sauce
Temaki (handrolls)
- Vegan Temaki Inari, cucumber and avocado with sushi rice, beni shoga ginger and spring onions
Being the greedy-guts that I am, I had the large Vegan Supreme box. It had a great variety of vegan sushi, with a nice range of flavours and textures. The dragon roll was the star of the show, filled with lots of tasty veg and topped with avocado. Sushi is always deceptively filling and this £7.50 box for lunch was all I needed to keep going for the rest of the afternoon.
I was also really tempted by the sushirito – a curious combination of a burrito made with sushi ingredients. There were also the usual sides available that are also suitable for vegans, such as edamame beans and miso soup.
Go Ninja is a great wee addition to Haymarket, offering vegans yet another great option for healthy lunch in the area. Definitely well worth a visit.
