In Memory of Wanda Ferris
May 24, 1996
I don't know how many of you spend time at the Disch. I don't even know if you'll know who I'm writing about. But, I heard the saddest thing I've ever heard at the Disch during this afternoon's game between Miami and Long Beach. I heard that Wanda had died in a car crash on her way to the Aggie game in College Station. That would have been on Saturday...the 27th of April.
I remember watching Wanda and Mel the first year I decided to get season tickets for the Longhorn baseball team. That must have been in 1989 or so. I really can't remember. Anyway, they always had the best time. And, they went to all the games. Mel would miss the odd game, maybe two or three times a year, when he just had to golf...but I don't think Wanda ever missed a game I went to. Those first few years, Wanda and Mel had seats about 10 rows below mine. I'd watch them wave to all the other "regulars" as they arrived at the games. They laughed and joked with everyone. Then, about three years ago, they changed seats. They moved to the same row my seats are in. Over about 8 seats and across the aisle. Soon, I was one of the "regulars" they greated so fondly. At the end of that first season (after winning the SWC tournament and then losing to Oklahoma in the Central II Regional here in Austin), we all wished each other a happy summer and said how we couldn't wait 'til the next season got under way.
And then last year. It was the same, all over again. Great big smiles graced their faces when they saw me coming up the stairs for that first game against the Alumni. Big hearty handshakes were exchanged. We all wondered how the season would go. Would Kip Harkrider be as good as his brother (who Mel affectionately referred to as "MISTER Tim" when he'd go to the plate) had been? Who would start at first base? Where did all those "Chads" come from? There were three! And on. During an away game (I think it was against Rice), I remember hearing Mel's voice cheering the Horns on as I listened to the game on the radio...his seats must've been very close to the announcer's booth. The season came to an end...the Horns didn't host the conference tourney or a regional. So we said our good-byes early.
Which brings me to this year. I beat Wanda and Mel to the stadium on Alumni game day. Which was very rare. They were almost always at the Disch before me. Afterall, I tend to run in at the last minute, often arriving only a minute or two before the first pitch. I was early for the game this year, though. And, it was great watching Wanda and Mel, bundled up against the chilly wind, coming up the stairs. They smiled and waved to people as they came up. And, I went over to the aisle to say "hi" when they had their stuff situated. Mel saw me and a big grin lit up his face. I reached out my hand to shake his and he just pulled me into a big hug. Wanda followed suit. As the season progressed, we all puzzled over what could be wrong with the team. Who would've believed last year's great infield wouldn't gel this year? What was wrong on the mound? But, things started getting better. Spirits rose. We started being a bit more optimistic about where the Horns were headed.
They used to go to a lot of the away games. When I told them I was going to the Houston series, they were sad to report, they weren't gonna make it. I decided on a rather "spur of the moment" kind of thing to go to the evening game against Baylor in Waco. My sister and I arrived a bit late...we made it in time for the first pitch but just barely. We didn't have time to look around...we just picked some seats behind the plate and started watching. Within moments, I heard Mel's familiar voice yelling encouragement to the team from the bleachers along the first base line. As usual, they were having a blast. Then, it started to rain. During the rain delay, we met up with them and then sat with them for the last 5 miserable innings of the game.
Suddenly, the last scheduled home game of the season came along. It was against the Aggies. We'd talked about the TCU series beforehand. They hadn't decided if they were going to go or not. I told them about the double-header in The Ballpark and that cinched things. They were gonna go. But, the Aggies came first. We won that last home game in a big way. What fun. I went over to them at the end of the game to wish them a happy summer...just in case we didn't get to host a regional. Mel said they'd see me in Arlington...and later on at the regional. He was pretty confident that Texas would get to host. I went up to Arlington for the games at The Ballpark the next week. I had a great time. I tried to keep an eye out for Wanda and Mel but there were just too many people at the game. And, then I got word that Texas would again be hosting one of the NCAA regional tourneys. Then the conference tourney in Lubbock came and went. And, then the Regional started. And, no sign of Wanda and Mel that first day. Ruby and I wondered about that. Where could they be? They must've gone out of town. Maybe, I thought, they'd be back for Friday's games. Then Friday came. Then I got the news. Ruby (who has seats a couple of rows behind Wanda and Mel) asked someone else about them. And she was told about the car crash. She immediately came over to me and gave me the terrible news. They'd been on their way to the games in College Station. In fact, they were almost there. Wanda died instantly. Mel sustained lots of injuries including two broken arms.
Gusball will never be the same. At every game, it was Mel's voice you heard bellowing a hearty "HOOK 'EM, HORNS!" as the last note of the National Anthem faded. I hope to hear it again someday but I don't know if I will. Wanda was the ultimate Dot Race fan. She always stood excitedly waiting for the results as she matched "her" dot against those of a woman who still has seats in Wanda and Mel's old section and Katie who has seats in their new section. She accepted both "wins" and "losses" at the Dot Race track most graciously. Wanda and Mel both loved the team and viewed the players very affectionately. They marveled at my score keeping. At least once a game, Mel would come over to see how many strikeouts the pitcher had or how many hits the batter had...or I'd go over to point out that O'Dell had already thrown 6 strikeouts or, as in the case of a game against Cal State Fullerton, the squad had combined for 17 walks and 2 hit-batsmen. Early this season, Wanda wanted to know what a "6-pea" was. I was stumped. Then she explained that it had flashed up on the scoreboard along with the previous batter's stats. Hmmm...suddenly the light dawned. I'd heard "6-pea" but she'd said "6P" so I told her it meant the batter had popped up to the short stop in his previous at-bat. She was so pleased. That was Wanda...quick to a smile and happy to learn something new. Gusball will never be the same.
Wanda, I will miss you more than I can say. Y'know...I never even knew your last name before today. All I knew was your happy smile and terrific enthusiasm for Gusball. Rest in peace.

It's on like Donkey Kong
29 comments:
I don't blame you for feeling terrified, but I'm also crossing fingers and holding out hope for THIS cycle. New year, new beginnings and all that! Enjoy the blue vag!ReplyDelete
How exciting!! I didn't have to stick them where the sun don't shine but whatever helps thicken that lining is all worth it! I 100% get the petrified feeling. A week in since my transfer and the waiting game is no fun. Best of luck!ReplyDelete
Good luck!! I will be thinking of you this cycle!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous6 January 2014 at 22:13
Good luck to you this cycle. Thinking of youReplyDelete
You got this, friend. Butt loads of positivity sent your way!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous7 January 2014 at 02:13
I can only imagine how high the stakes must seem. Having gotten to see, and yet not to keep, two little people that look like me, I understand the longing. Sending lots of positive thoughts your way! I'm glad they are willing to accommodate M's business trip - and that you know there are alternatives should this cycle not work. We'll all be rooting for you!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous7 January 2014 at 08:55
Yes, you keep moving forward with that blue pill! It's not going to come to donor egg. I have faith this is it for you! I'm so glad you can time it with M's travel too!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous7 January 2014 at 09:05
I'm glad that your clinic came through for this month, they're being flexible with timing so M can be there. As for being petrified, I hear ya. I've spent a lot of time thinking about the pros of donor eggs as a coping mechanism (although this may backfire if/when my eggs pull through), but I don't think you can mourn fully until you know for sure. Until then, we just move forward, petrified. Your mountain climbing metaphor is so good and so apt. It's just so hard to keep keep going when you don't know how much farther you have to go. Of course you know I'm rooting for your eggs; you haven't given up on mine and I haven't given up on yours!!ReplyDelete
You are moving right along and one step closer :) Come on eggs!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous7 January 2014 at 10:18
I think it's great that you are learning more about your donor egg options while you are in the thick of this FET. I was the same way with my donor cycle and adoption. It really helped me stay calm and positive knowing that if one path didn't work out, I already had a head start on another. I will be cheering you on every step of the way no matter where your path leads :)ReplyDelete
It's funny (I've been caught in this with my RE's office) that timing issues that we perceive as being no big deal, will be critical to them (I have to come in for my baseline scan on day 3, but if I don't have a cyst present, won't it still not be there on day 4) and dates and events that we think could be game changers, get the "eh, we can work around that!" Glad to hear it's on. Like Donkey Kong, which I'm sure can somehow be related to infertility. Give me a minute to work on this...ReplyDelete
- Anonymous7 January 2014 at 12:02
oh vaginal estrogen. the joy. I am glad you can continue a little longer to wait till M is home. Try to focus on one thing at a time. If you decide to pursue donor egg, we are here for you! We have the info and the experience and all kinds of advice you may not want or need! And yes, it will take time to grieve that biological loss. But there is time for that too. One thing at a time! One vag pill at a time!ReplyDelete
I totally get what you're feeling and the grieving part, the hoping-that-this-is-it combined with the grieving-for-the-loss-of-a-part-of-you. Bob often jokes about my dad's flat nose and his buck teeth and if our kids would inherit that... I am so afraid that our future children won't have a chance to inherit a piece of me (and my dad). I don't blame you. I would be petrified too. Like what Kimberly said, one thing at a time. Hoping for a nice BFP in the very near future.ReplyDelete
I'm really hoping this is your cycle. Fingers crossed!ReplyDelete
I totally understand feeling petrified when you feel like it's your last chance. But I have a really good feeling about this FET and fingers crossed that all works out perfectly (timing-wise and BFP-wise)!ReplyDelete
I'm glad to hear that the FET is moving forward and that your husband can be there for you. I hope everything just works out fantastically!ReplyDelete
Wishing you the best of luck with your FET and I'm glad that your husband will be able to make it. I took baby aspirin during my cycle and as you know, it was a success!ReplyDelete
I took baby aspirin as part of my protocol. Maybe it will be the thing that makes the difference.ReplyDelete
I am rooting so hard for you! I hope this is the start of an amazing year for you.
I'm taking baby aspirn with this protocol as well. The doctor says that it can also help prevent blood clots (which can come from hormone use). There's a history of stroke in my family, but I've heard that it's common for everyone at my clinic to take this as part of their protocol.ReplyDelete
As for knowing it's your last attempt with your own genetics. I've been there. For me it was such a tricky head space to navigate. Feeling like this is the one that is going to work vs. trying to mentally prepare (once again, but in a bigger way) that it may not. Tricky stuff.
Praying and hoping that this FET brings your baby. Just keeping taking those little pills and focus on your hope and faith! Rooting for you.ReplyDelete
Wishing you all the luck in the world! I know what it's like to face the DEIVF decision. It's frightening. But it's not as bad as you think. (And although such a child wouldn't be your genetic child, s/he *will* be your biological child. See: http://blog.pved.org/?cat=232 .) Count me in as one of the people you know you can turn to if you need to. For now, fingers crossed for Saturday!! xoxoReplyDelete
I hope this cycle is the one that works out for you, but if it doesn't, I am more than willing to be a sounding board for any questions you might have about donor eggs. Or if no questions, just someone who has been there that you can vent to. It's a road I never thought we would go down, using donor eggs, but I would do it all over again if I had to.ReplyDelete
The blog are the best that is extremely useful to keep.ReplyDelete

If you are anything like us, and by that I mean human, then you'll no doubt be having last minute bikini-body baring panics. No matter how strict you have been with your diet nor how hardcore you've been going at it in the gym, for most of us there are a slew of body issues that arise when it comes to stripping off. But this is the year to take action, so whether you have a month to go until the big reveal, or just a couple of days or weeks, we show you that, with just a little beauty insider know-how, you can boost your body confidence for good.
Creeping blue and green veins, whether they're of the varicose or thread vein variety, appearing on either your face or your legs, can be both painful and unsightly. The bruised-looking, spidery brutes, thought to be triggered by a number of causes, from hormones to weight fluctuations, pregnancy or simple genetics, don't have to hold you hostage, hidden under 40 denier wraps.
For long-wearing, clever concealing we swear by Estee Lauder's Double Wear Maximum Protection Face and Body Camouflage Makeup, £27.50. With SPF 15, a full-coverage but non cakey formula and up-to 12 hour staying power this smooths over obvious discolouration. Vichy's Dermablend Corrective Foundation £15.50 also offers total coverage with a light, blendable, moisturising texture.
For a more permanent solution, book yourself an appointment at Dr Newman's Clinic. A pioneer in vein removal technology, Dr Brian Newman has developed a Thermocoagulation technique, called Veinwave, which completely destroys thread veins in a matter of seconds, causing them to vanish instantly. Sounds too good to be true?
Well, after having my GP confirm that the non-painful, but rather unseemly green squiggles that had appeared on the inside of my knee and around my ankle were in no way a health issue, I headed to see Dr Newman. After analysing said veins under a UV magnifying camera, he confirmed that they were nothing to concern myself with, but were easily treatable with Veinwave.
The thermocaoagulation process uses a microwave of electrical current to transfer heat into the vein, causing it to burst. The blood then leaks out into the surrounding skin tissue before being absorbed by the body – and for any remaining discolouration – a second appointment, where a saline solution is injected into the area will target any remnants.
And so, a couple of weeks later, I found myself back on the treatment bed watching – on a monitor – a miniscule, hair-thin needle slide, at various points, into my scrawling vein, which then disappeared. Completely. With barely a scratch to the skin (I've had eyebrow threading that has been more uncomfortable – although there may be more sensitivity with thread veins on the face) there was no need for even a topical anaesthetic. And within minutes I was pulling my jeans back up with nothing but a warm sensation as a reminder of where my vein used to be.
Dr Newman's Clinic, www.drnewmansclinic.co.uk, Initial consultation £200 (£250 to be consulted by Dr Brian Newman), treatment £395 per treatment (£450 to be treated by Dr Brian Newman)

We've created "quickies" in order to enable users to notate, manage tasks and add attachments and tags for each lead they have stored in their account.
Quick answers
- How do I add a new "thing to do" from the Quickies Panel?
- How do I add a new "thing to do" from the detail screen?
- Who can see my to-dos?
Attaching Documents
Using Quickies to Add a Note
Keeping notes relating to a specific lead should be as easy as jotting down some chicken scratch on a printed lead sheet. Luckily, with dashboard, notes are always legible and accessible with the click of a button.
1. To add a note, click on the "Add a note" button. Then, enter some text onto the cream colored square. Click "Add note" to save the text or click "cancel" to erase it.
Who can read my notes?
Whoever has access to a lead can see all notes, tags, to-dos and documents associated with that lead. If you are a sales rep then your manager and the admin of the account can view notes. If you are a manager then the admin can view notes. Any users who you or your manager and admin have shared the lead with can view all the notes associated with the lead.
How do I add a new "thing to do" using Quickies?
From the Quickie panel inside the lead and deal detail screens, clicking on the "Add a thing to-do" button will expand the to-do panel and display a few pertinent options to the user, namely Task, Due By and Type.
1. The task field is the headline for the task item. An example of a task headline is, "Reach Mr. Smith before Friday at his home". The due-by field is a drop-down and contains the fields, Today, Tomorrow, This Week, Next Week and Specific Date & Time. Selecting specific date & time will enable a calendar for the user to select date and time from. The type field is a drop-down and has the fields, Milestone, Phone Call, E-mail, Fax, To-do and Appointment. Selecting a to-do type helps keep important tasks more organized and reader-friendly. Clicking "Add to-do" will save the current task item and clicking cancel will abandon user changes.
2. Populate recurring to-dos by creating to-do templates. Click "Create Template" if no templates have been created or select the appropriate pre-existing template from the dropdown list. Learn more about to-do templates here.
How do I add a new "thing to do" from the detail screen?
Add to-do items using the "Add a thing to-do" button located inside the To-do header, below the lead or deal details.
1. To add a to-do from a detail screen, click the "Add a thing to-do" button, located on the right side of the "Things to-do" header. A screen will appear asking for a task description, a due by date, a type of task dropdown, and a save button. Enter the information you wish to save and click the "Add to-do" button. Click cancel to abandon changes.
Who can see my to-dos?
Whoever has access to a lead can see all to-dos, tags, notes and documents associated with that lead. If you are a sales rep then your manager and the admin of the account can view the to-dos. If you are a manager then the admin can view the to-dos. Any users who you or your manager and admin have shared the lead with can view all the to-dos associated with the lead.
How do I attach a document to a lead?
Forget about stapling documents to lead sheets or keeping bulky files for a potential client. dashboard allows users to upload as many documents as needed and attach them to a lead entry.
1. Enter the name of the document so it's easily referenced at a later time, select the source for the file and click "Add document" to store it in our secure database. If the wrong document is selected or a user decides not to archive a file, clicking the cancel button will reset the panel to its default state. dashboard currently supports gif, jpg, jpeg, png, doc, rtf, txt, docx, xls, csv, xlsx, ppt, pptx, pdf, psd, eps & ai files.
Why are tags so useful?
One of the best ways to make leads more search friendly is by adding little helpers called "tags". Much like the tags widely used in video and photo websites, lead tags help the filtering system find leads based on the similarities, or "tags" they have in common.
How do I add a tag from within Quickies?
Tags can be added to any lead or deal from the Quickies menu which is located to the right of any lead or deal detail screen.
1. From inside the Quickies tag tool, check all tags that you'd like added to the lead or deal you are viewing details for. Your newly applied tags will appear above the lead or deal header.
2. Clicking "Create New Tag" will direct you to the "Manage your account tags" screen and you will be able to create new tags and apply them to any lead.
How do I add a tag from within Settings?
To add and edit tags, click on the "Settings" link located on the top right section of the application, underneath the dashboard welcome message. Once on the settings page, click the "Edit" button inside the Tags panel.
To add one or more tags to a lead, simply type the words you'd like to use as tags and click the "Add tag" button. To delete a tag, check the box next to the tag to display it above the lead info screen. Tags will be highlighted in distinguishing colors with an "x" to the right of them. You can also select the colors you'd like the tag to display with. Click "x" to delete it's corresponding tag. Tags can also be organized from inside the tag manager. To add a tag inside the tag manager simply enter the words into the text field and click "Add tag". Clicking the pencil icon will enable editing and clicking the trash icon will delete the tag.
I made a mistake on a tag. Can I edit it?
Tags are easily edited via the click of the pencil icon located to the right of the tag in the tags list. The maximum characters permitted for a tag is 15.
How do I delete my tags?
Tags are easily deleted by either clicking the "x" next to the tag itself or by clicking the trash icon located to the right of the tag description in the tags listing inside the tag manager.

- amba Taipei Songshan
Launched on July 1, 2016, amba Taipei Songshan is a design-led hotel located in eastern Taipei, catering to today's savvy urban travelers.
Authentic Taiwanese craftsmanship is showcased throughout amba Taipei Songshan's streamlined design. Casting a magical glow is a signature collection of 24 giant eco-bamboo lanterns standing up to three meters high. Traditional, eco-friendly bamboo materials were combined with contemporary designs to create a unique visual experience for guests the moment they step into the hotel on level one, and throughout the seven-meter high lobby, Que woodfired grill, and Que bar on level 17.
Each lantern was custom crafted for the hotel by a team of artisans in central Taiwan from eco bamboo. The lights feature 17 different hand-woven designs that dapple the space with unique patterns. Weaving methods include such patterns as bull's eye, herringbone, hexagonal, and octagonal.
The largest lanterns, measuring three meters high, each taking six artists two weeks to create. Several sections also had to be woven onsite during the complex installation process.

One good thing about moving, you never know when some forgotten project bobs back up to the surface. I had two pieces of this sweater completed (except for ribbing) when it got shoved into a project bag and ... nothing, totally ignored for months.
Time to get this one done, and into the finished column. This was a machine knit project, and naturally I had neglected to label my nice big swatch with the machine settings I used to achieve the gauge of the original pieces. Amazingly though I did have the Sweater Wizard generated pattern I was working from -- small victories. At any rate, taking a guess (and crossing my fingers) I went with my best estimate. Whew, must be a good guesser, as it worked out to be a matching gauge.
Specs: Machine Knit (Silver Reed LK-150) drop shouldered pullover worked in Silk City Fibers Stretch Cotton, color Blue Jeans. Waist, sleeve and neckline ribbing handknit in a K2, P2 rib.
Sizing cotton sweaters tends to be a real headache for me -- make it exactly the finished dimensions you require then watch it sag and grow. I'm hopeful the little bit of Lycra in this yarn will help with that -- we'll see.
I was working with two cones of this yarn, and still have a good bit left -- wonder if Mr. Monty would like a hoodie to match?


text: I frequently find myself craving sushi on a Sunday evening. But I have been told by a local sushi chef that the fish is not as fresh on Sunday or Monday since the fish markets are closed those days and/or no one is bringing fish in from boats those days. My experience has been consistent with this. Obviuosly this would only apply to the better sushi places that don't store their fish for a few days anyway. I'd be happy if someone could debunk this theory so that I can start looking for good fish on a Sunday or Monday night.

We are now accepting proposals for papers for the next issue of Coller Venture Review, focused on University Venture. Submission deadline: March 6, 2016
In addition to an author's honorarium of US $3000, publishing with CIV may lead to further research collaboration, participation in our events, and the opportunity to expose your thinking and research to thousands of stakeholders in the global venture ecosystem.
To submit your proposal, download the full call for papers:
CIV's research is organized into strands, each addressing a particular aspect of the venture ecosystem. Current research strands include:
Each issue of Coller Venture Review is devoted to one strand. The coming issue will focus on "University Venture," where we look at the future of the relationship of Universities to Venture. This is based on the notion that the global venture ecosystem in the 21st century is changing rapidly, and the role of academia in it is of necessity going to change as well.
The traditional roles of universities – Creation of knowledge through research, Transfer of knowledge through teaching, and Using knowledge through tech transfer – will remain in the coming decades, but their relative extent and nature are certain to change. The nature of all these changes is still not fully understood: while the scope of academic knowledge is growing exponentially, and universities must find a way to cover its entire breadth to some extent, they are slow to identify the best manner they can adapt and integrate into the overall venture ecosystem – which is itself is a moving target.

Understanding When Eating Soy Might Help or Harm in Breast Cancer Treatment
"Georgetown Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers have used animal models to reveal new information about the impact – positive and negative – that soy consumption could have on a common breast cancer treatment.
"The scientists have uncovered the biological pathways in rats by which longtime soy consumption improves effectiveness of tamoxifen and reduces breast cancer recurrence. But they also show why eating or drinking soy-based foods for the first time while being treated with tamoxifen can, conversely, reduce effectiveness of the drug, and promote recurrence.
"The study, published in Clinical Cancer Research, uncovers the molecular biology behind how soy consumption, especially its most active isoflavone, genistein, affects tamoxifen—both positively and negatively."
If you're wondering whether this story applies to your own cancer case or a loved one's, we invite you to use our ASK Cancer Commons service.

After living in a caravan for three years, Dustie and Elsa were thrilled when they eventually moved into their own two bedroom house. It was a house that Dustie wanted to turn into a home, with a limited budget and an eye for a bargain. Dustie managed to decorate the whole of her house using paint rescued from a skip. Strapped for cash, yet desperate to make her kitchen cosy, she bought some second hand units online. But when they arrived with door handles and parts missing, Dustie was left in a mess.
So Laura, Dan, Ed and Gareth stepped in to solve some of her problems and put a spring back into her step. Dan investigated the world of kitchen cupboards and Laura came up with an extra idea that meant Dustie could sleep peacefully once more.
In this update episode, designer Ed Robinson returns to see how Dustie is getting on with her new kitchen and is pleased to find that she still loves it. So much so that she's been inspired to decorate her daughter's Elsa's bedroom too... Ed transforms this space, giving it a mini-makeover with Dustie's help.

The kit provides access to all the PSoC 5LP device I/Os in a breadboard-compatible format. It features a micro-USB header for creating prototypes with Full Speed USB 2.0 connectivity. The kit is also designed with a convenient snappable form-factor, allowing users to separate the USB connector with the KitProg Programmer and Debugger from the target board to use them independently. Once done with the prototype, you're still left with a handy SWD programmer!
The kit includes Cypress's KitProg Programmer and Debugger. KitProg can program and debug the target PSoC 5LP device via SWD when using PSoC Creator or PSoC Programmer. It supports bridging over USB-UART and USB-I2C interfaces and also provides access to Micrium μC/Probe for reading and writing memory on the target device. When snapped away, this tiny USB board can be used as a KitProg programmer and debugger with any PSoC 3, PSoC 4 or PSoC 5LP device. The KitProg firmware is provided as a bootloader image that can be upgraded to develop custom applications for it.

|Julie Pennington working in her Bowral studio
Julie Pennington is a ceramic artist based in Bowral, NSW Southern Highlands. Originally from the Blue Mountains, Julie studied in education in Canberra, then moved Sydney where she studied and worked in textile design. In 2001 she moved to the Southern Highlands and started studying ceramics. Her early ceramic work reflected her interest in textiles, investigating ceramic printing techniques on thrown and slip cast vessels. During her 2013 residency at Sturt Craft Centre in Mittagong, the direction of Julie's work shifted towards exploring the sculptural elements of ceramics. Julie now focuses on porcelain sculptural work, using finely rolled coils to construct intricate and delicate forms that explore positive and negative space, line and movement, and the interplay of light and shadow. Drawing inspiration from the natural environment as well as her ongoing interest in textiles, wire and woven forms, Julie's work evolves in an intuitive way, becoming absorbed in the process of building, and allowing the making process to inform her work. Julie has recently exhibited in The Course of Objects at Manly Art Gallery, at Chinaclay Gallery in Clovelly, M.Contemporary Gallery in Woollahra, Edwina Corlette Gallery in Brisbane, and last month she held a solo show titled Branching Out, at Mu Studio Gallery in Mosman.
|Julie Pennington, Twig Vessels I & II, 2015, Porcelain and black stain
While I'm at Gunyah I plan to gather inspiration for a new ceramic works, expanding on my current interest in the surfaces of tree trunks and plant details. I'm looking forward to connecting with the bush on a daily basis – walking and having time to contemplate and observe things more closely. I don't get to spend much time on the coast, so I'll welcome the possibility of new ideas being generated from fossicking on the beach. Having the bush and the sea at my doorstep at Gunyah will indulge my love of collecting things and examining details to use in my work by taking photos and make sketches too refer to back in my studio. I'm looking forward to immersing myself in this new environment, and am excited to see how this residency impacts my work.

Apparently people use social networks for something they could do anywhere and without a cell phone, computer or any other device; so Let's Talk About Which Channel Is Top On Periscope: TALK.
On a normal Sunday, surfing in Periscope, I was trying to decide which channel choose for entertainment and I realized that the highest channel streaming was #TALK and #COMEDY was the lowest channel streaming.
Themes are many and diverse such as chatting with friends, gaming, family, astrology, music, shopping, fashion, Emmys, etc.
So if you are about to make transmissions in periscope and not just be as an observer; the hack to have more audience certainly is that you select the #TALK channel; therefore there will be more people who will be surfing there and if you have good content well…you could be a super star at Periscope!
You might think that selecting another channel with fewer streamings could be a better strategy to have more audience (I thought so!) So I went into each of the channels with fewer streamings and their audiences were between 7 and 60 users, while the #TALK channel was between 50 and 1,300 users.
On the other hand if your intention to use Periscope is to make streamings about your brand in a professional way; you should definitely select the right channel and let users gradually come to you; it is always important to leave the message clear to your audience.
What's coming?
Finally and as you know last week was announced the launch of the new iPhone 8, iPhone 8 plus and iPhone X; which means that there will also be updates in iOS and therefore in Periscope. Meanwhile, HERE is the link of the last iOS update for Periscope. And HERE is the link of the last Android update for Periscope.

text: Another day another Glute session. New workout clothes always make for a better workout. Continuing to eat and continuing to grow said booty. I think we were there for 3 hours tonight But that included time for some Glute vids. But man, with some extra food and extra carbs in me its amazing the strength, energy and pumps I get. So don't be afraid to eat. I mean keep things in balance but don't fear food. Fuel the engine and lite the metabolism up baby. And grow the cakes I spy my beautiful hubby in the back. Using his phone to capture tonight's booty pump because my little engine that could phone has been out of storage for a yearrrrr. I know. I'll get a new one. In the meantime ... Train hard. Eat good.

Lola's Story
Lola's husband has been incapacitated and tied to a life support system for several years in their home on the edge of North Minneapolis. He has been battling a long term form of carcinoma. Up in years, it has been challenging, but Lola has been devoted to her husband's needs during this time. Nov. 2007 Operation Living Hope has learned that Lola herself is suffering severe shoulder pain. She is due for repair through surgery on Thursday. Her concerns are the high costs of heating their house and the day to day necessities such as transportation and food. Annie, head of OLH, and Karen, a women's Bible study devotee and counselor, rallied a support team for prayer and supplementation of the physical needs of Lola's household. Two items were asked from Annie -- a good supply of Annie's home cooked spaghetti and Lola's favorite peanut butter cookies. Lola's request was granted with a week's worth of both. Jan. 2008 In an arm sling, it is good to see Lola back in church service and into the fellowship. She thanked all for their prayers and her needs which were fulfilled by all. < /div>

Whitman Undergraduate Conference 2018
Penrose Library and the Whitman College and Northwest Archives want to help you share your Undergraduate Conference research with the Whitman community and beyond!
We think of the Whitman Undergraduate Conference collection in ARMINDA as conference proceedings. This means that we collect the materials you used for your presentation (slides, paper, poster), but not related research materials such as a thesis or a term paper that you drew from for your presentation. If you want to submit both slides and a presentation script, you can, although if you want to restrict access to the Whitman community we may not be able to make more than one document available.
Please also bear in mind that compliance with copyright law is very important when you are sharing your work publicly. Respecting the intellectual property rights of others is part of the Whitman College Copyright Policy. If you are reproducing copyrighted works (images, texts, music, etc.) in your presentation, paper, or poster, you need to either have permission from the copyright owner to share, or to determine whether you can claim fair use of that material. Please refer to our materials on determining fair use. For stock images, consider using materials with a Creative Commons license, which gives you permission to use them in various ways.
We recommend that you submit your materials in PDF format so that your work remains uniformly accessible across different platforms (Mac vs. PC) for a longer period of time. This supports many use cases — sharing with employers, graduate programs, prospective students, or your future self! It is always important to check that your formatting has not changed when you convert from one file type to another, so when you save to PDF, do double-check that everything looks correct — especially figures and formulas. We will accept your WUC materials as Word and PowerPoint files if you prefer; just be aware that we will not be able to make sure that they will still open and display correctly when the supporting software changes. If you have other supporting materials, please check with us about how best to submit them, and in what format.
Please contact Amy Blau with any questions about submitting your WUC project to share in ARMINDA.

I have never been a Barry White fan, but I am apparently alone in my disdain for the dude with the deepest singing voice in the world. In fact, a recent study proves that women remember -- and want to mate with -- men who have deep voices. And even though poor White is not my cup of tea, I am also drawn to a manly man with a purringly low register.
Ladies who love Darth Vader, can I get a whoo-hoo?! Seriously I can't be the only one who was kind of into the Star Wars villain with his sexy cape, mysterious past, and deep voice (thanks to James Earl Jones). There is nothing wrong with liking masculinity and a deep voice is just one part.
Others include facial hair, height, broad shoulders, and big hands and feet. You know what they say about men with big feet, after all?
Women think they're hot! Seriously, there is something about a guy who is a guy. A manly man does something to the soul and is deeply sexy, like his voice.
All these qualities remind us of how masculine they are, just like men are often drawn to feminine, high-pitched voices, larger breasts, small waists, and long hair. It makes biological sense, no?
A voice can often make or break a man. Think of Kasey Kahl from Bachelor Pad. The poor guy has a speech impediment, but his voice, as a result, is something that is mocked mercilessly on the blogs and on the show. He can't help it. But it's not sexy. Not in the way George Clooney's deep voice is for the rest of us.
The things a man says can drive us wild, and when he does it with a deep voice, it's even better.
Do you like a deep voice?

Small sauna, relatively clean. About 30 people when I was there on a Sat afternoon. Half of those were over 50, 2 people in their twenties, a handful in their thirties. Only 4 people were fit. I still had a decent time, though it could have gone either way.

How familiar are you with your insurance policy? Do you know what it covers? Your deductibles?

Hello HC family,
This week we will be meeting at the Haugers at 7pm. Stef is going to get us centered and close us out!
We will be continuing the conversation on Narratives, specifically changing our narratives. We will read through the soul training-exercises, which help in changing our narrative, as well as, engaging the Holy Spirit, for it is by His power that we are able to change. You may want to give some thought ahead of time to the questions found on that page: How can we harness the power of the Holy Spirit to bring restorative change to people in our house churches? As a house church leader, how can you respond when you see a community member living into a false narrative?
Also, take a look at the soul-training exercises and give one a go this week that you don't normally do!
Praying for the power of the Spirit to be manifested in your lives this week,

'Moonlight' wins grand prize after Oscars blunder
Veteran actor and filmmaker Warren Beatty accidentally announces the winner of the Academy Award for Best Picture as 'La La Land', before the award is correctly given to 'Moonlight'. Ryan Brooks reports.
African-American coming-of-age tale "Moonlight" won the Oscar for best picture on Sunday (February 26) on a big night for Hollywood diversity that was overshadowed by an embarrassing onstage gaffe over the top award. In a mishap that caused uproar and confusion, presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway initially announced that romantic musical "La La Land", the presumed favourite for best picture, had won. As the casts of both films stood awkwardly on stage, Beatty explained he had been given the wrong envelope to open. It was the first time in living memory that such a major mistake had been made at the Academy Awards, Hollywood's biggest night. It even eclipsed the prior three hours of a show peppered with jokes about U.S. President Donald Trump. Accountants Price Waterhouse Cooper, who oversee the ballots, said the presenters had mistakenly been given the wrong category envelope. "We are currently investigating how this could have happened, and deeply regret that this occurred," PwC said in a statement, while apologizing to "Moonlight" and "La La Land", Beatty and Dunaway and Oscar viewers. Officials from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences were not immediately available to comment. "Is that the craziest Oscar moment of all time?" Stone, who won the best actress Oscar for her "La La Land" role as a struggling actress, told reporters backstage "It's a very strange happening for Oscar history." "Moonlight," about a young boy struggling with poverty and his sexuality in Miami, also brought a supporting actor Oscar for first timer Mahershala Ali, a best adapted screenplay statuette. Viola Davis won for her supporting role as a long suffering housewife in African-American family drama "Fences." The recognition for both the actors and their films made a stark contrast to the 2016 Academy Awards when no actors of color were even nominated. "Moonlight" producer Adele Romanski said she hoped the movie would inspire "little black boys and brown girls and other folks watching at home who feel marginalised."

It's a marathon, not a sprint. Being asked to project manage from scratch is an ordeal. When a company has a desire to improve efficiency and operate from a data driven standpoint, they will turn to project management if they aren't there. Here's a short list of what to consider:
1) What methodology will you use?
If you walk in to software development or to goods manufacturing, this question has a built-in answer. But when the company's product lies somewhere in that charcoal-colored area between the two, that creates a charcoal-colored answer to this question. You have to spend time finding out what the pain points are in the company from past projects. Those pain points will be the opposite side of the direction you need to go. For instance, let's say the company has taken on several projects but had trouble finishing them, then chances are you want to stay away from Agile or anything the like. However, the plus of not being in a black and white situation is that while you may start with a certain way to operate in mind, some processes and methods can be morphed to fit progress.
2) Company Culture
I will absolutely not kid you on this. Having been several places that are clearly a non-project-based atmosphere, you stand an uphill battle whether you want to infuse a few principles of project management, or if the goal is to absolutely convert the company to being project-based. The key is two-fold. One, you must take the time to understand the existing company culture. You may be in a place where you can come out of the gate barking orders. Or, you maybe some place that you have to walk on eggshells. Hopefully you are somewhere between those two extremes. A program of project management must be able to fit the existing culture before it can ever be the other way around.
3) Win Over the Mid-Levels
Let's face it. If you're part of a conversion to being a project-based company as part of a large company, you are probably one of several in a project management office. The head of the PMO will have been given marching orders from the CEO and/or the COO. They will then develop the approach, and disseminate the plans through all the other project managers in the PMO. It's a machine. When you are the lone project manager leading conversion efforts in a small to medium company, this is a different story. You've likely been told "we want you to manage projects" and then set to open pasture. Then, you must devise your approaches and begun to implement. The key to a winning effort in this case is making it a collaborative effort. Project Managers are not dictators. They are a combination of analyst and quality specialist. So a successful move to being a project-based company will require that project manager win over the other mid-level managers to the thoughts behind and the needs of running project management, while clearly leaving the details of how to implement it to those other mid-levels. Make sure they know you're not telling them how to do their job.
Most of all, the key is patience when doing project management from scratch. It will not go right the first, second, or even third time. But when it does go right, you'll be ready to celebrate and do it again.

I wanted to make something different for the Greek boys (well two of them were already men), something they surely would not find in Greece. What could that be? Of course leather jewels with reindeer horn pendants! Each closure was different, one made of some nut, one from a piece of a bone and one from floated wood, so a tiny difference between them. As you can see, I have plenty of useful things in my little van :P
Boys were happy to get them, they do not even take them off when they sleep :)
Closure from floated wood, were I burned some decoration.

As many astute readers of this blog may notice, I've not been blogging too much lately. And if you're also a listener to The David Lawrence Show, you will have a good idea why: I've been up to my eyeballs with the launch of my new company, AGLOCO.
AGLOCO — which is an acronym of sorts, short for "A Global Community" — is a modern incarnation of the Infomediary concept that I helped to pioneer back during the "dotcom" days with AllAdvantage. At AGLOCO, I am a co-founder (along with a couple of former AllAdvantage founders and a new cast of thousands*) and Chief Privacy Officer. Oh, and de facto General Counsel (at least until we have enough money to hire a better lawyer). ;-)
( * Okay, not a cast of thousands… But we've got about a dozen Stanford students that are running most of the operations. Actually, we may very well be the largest single employer of the Stanford Graduate School of Business Class of 2007…)
What is AGLOCO?
At it's core, AGLOCO is an Infomediary. What's that?
On the Internet, advertisers and marketers are eagerly and greedily gathering information about you, your interests, your shopping patterns, and other pieces of your personal information. They use this information to build a "profile" which can be used to target advertisements to you. In fact, some "data brokerage" companies will sell that profile information — your information! — to the highest bidder.
An infomediary turns this equation upside down by working as an agent on behalf of consumers to gather the same kind of data profile, but this time the profile is kept private and under the ultimate control of the consumer. The infomediary then pays consumers a share of the advertising revenue. As the community of users grows, and the quality of the targeting profile improves, the infomediary can provide advertisers with a richer and more valuable advertising audience and in turn the infomediary can deliver more value back to the community.
If you look today at the most vibrant communities on the Internet, places like MySpace, YouTube, Flickr and del.icio.us, the members of those communities have made those sites into incredible successes. When MySpace sold to News Corp. for $580 Million, how much money did the users of MySpace make? When YouTube sold to Google for $1.65 Billion, how much of that money went to those lip-syncing Korean guys and the other thousands of users who made the site such a success?
Don't get me wrong: I think the folks who create exciting websites and think up innovative "Web 2.0" concepts deserve to be rewarded for their creativity and their vision. But so do the users, without whom those sites would be nothing more than cute little ideas with no audience. Now, some will say that the users of YouTube or MySpace get value because they get the enjoyment of participating in the community and creating wacky webpages… all of which they get for the low, low price of FREE!
Yeah, well… one of our founding team stumbled upon a quote that sums up my feelings: Sometimes "Free" is Too Expensive!
AGLOCO will be the only (at least until somebody swipes the idea) Internet community where all the Members who come together to make it a success will actually share in the wealth created by their hard work and dedication. If "Web 2.0 is all about user empowerment, AGLOCO is empowering a virtual revolution!

It appears you may have some issues with your server. For hours we tried to sign-up as a member using your link above (aglo0009) – however, we kept getting an error message "My account is temporarily disabled". We finally were able to submit our info – but have not received the "Verification email" yet and it's been over an hour. You may want to have your IT staff take a look into this … because we are anxious to tell our 238 business clients and 7K opt-in list about this opportunity. Drop us a line sometime … Ron B.

The IT staff have been working feverishly over the holidays to keep things up and running; the volume of signups is pretty significant and is keeping the system taxed to its limits (and occasionally beyond them). But please keep trying. Also the confirmation emails are similarly running a little bit slow, but usually go out within a couple of hours. Also check your "spam" folder if you're using a service like AOL or Hotmail; some users have reported the confirmation messages are ending up there due to something about the automated email triggering a spam filter. We're trying to adjust things to reduce that problem as well. Thanks for your patience!

Ray … We decided to wait an extra day and try the sign-up process again; this time we did get a confirmation email. It appears that your guys have resolved the first wave of issues. I believe that our Agloco landing page will be online by Tuesday – after which we'll send our code (BBBC0338) to our business members and shortly thereafter to our opt-in list.
Here's to another good run … Cheer – Ron

Aqua and Apple Green Bedroom Nook
A preppy pairing in high gloss defines and energizes the all-time tiniest nook. For a wee, windowless room like this one, choose paints in pearly or glossy finishes. They reflect light and make even the most minuscule spot feel brighter and more spacious. -Domino ... View Post
Sophisticated Blue Living Room
Go for a deep aqua tone of blue for the walls, as it's a warm shade of the color. Mix with darker blue furniture and off-white pieces to create balance, and accents of taupe will bring richness to the scheme. Dark wood is also good for adding depth and hints of bright pink will lift the room. -House to Home ... View Post

I'm back from holidays and reality has certainly kicked into gear. The memories of our 6 week adventure have already given way to the mundane tasks of everyday life!
To combat my post-holiday blues I've thrown myself into sewing and anything crafty. This weekend I finished my first fashion project that didn't involve following a pattern!
I drafted the pattern (with the help of my sewing teacher Letty) from a picture I found of a Sportmax dress using a simple t-shirt template as the base. I had the silk and cotton lying around (fantastic to finally find a use from them!) and after a few mistakes and amendments... here it is! I think it turned out ok for a first attempt? What do you think? Here's the orignal sportmax dress
