What's On and Upcoming at Cooper Hewitt, the Smithsonian Design MuseumMay 17, 2018 - by Merrill Lee Girardeau
At the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum, you're introduced to the world of design in the masterpiece that is Carnegie Mansion. This gorgeous, historical house on Museum Mile is filled with innovations in all kinds of design, from home furnishings to architecture to paper goods. The experience will stimulate the senses (especially when you read a map with your hands!) as you interact with the objects and use the museum's special digital pen to capture your favorite pieces from the collections. Bring your family to the Cooper Hewitt this spring and summer; below are the exhibitions upcoming and on view now!
Exhibitions at the Cooper Hewitt | Saturated: The Allure and Science of Color
Sample plate, France, ca. 1920s
Color frequently dictates how we experience a design object. Whether we're compelled or repelled by it, a color is a fascinating physical and psychological phenomenon and the subject of Saturated, coming soon to the Cooper Hewitt. You'll see a blue vase nearly 2,000 years old and a Miller Blues Band poster from 1967, featuring bright, psychedelic stripes of orange and blue. 190 more objects will show off the power of every color in the rainbow—some all at once! On view May 11, 2018 through January 13, 2019.
Exhibitions at the Cooper Hewitt: Ilonka Karasz
Design polymath Ilona Karasz worked in the United States for the better part of the twentieth century, producing popular textiles, book and magazine covers, ceramics, toys, and more. Karasz's most famous contributions to American design were her New Yorker covers, a few of which are on display at this exhibit. She also designed wallpaper for Katzenbach and Warren and furnishings and metalwork for the American Designers' Gallery in the 1920s. See pieces from these important collections, and learn about Karasz's groundbreaking place in American design history. Through April 22, 2018.

Designers with work in this collection include Joyce Scott, Friedrich Becker, and Ted Noten. Through May 28.
Exhibitions at the Cooper Hewitt | Passion for the Exotic: Japonism
Inspired by the interest in Japanese design in the 19th century, Passion for the Exotic presents pieces from the Cooper Hewitt's permanent collection. A silver tea kettle embellished with intricate vines and flowers is only one example of Western design's interpretation of Japan's delicate, detailed aesthetics filled with natural imagery. These pieces responded to Japan's opening of trade in 1854 after a long refusal to export its goods. Through July 22.
Exhibitions at the Cooper Hewitt: Access + Ability
The hope of design is to make our lives easier. Never before have those with cognitive and physical disabilities been so championed in the field of design, as celebrated in Access + Ability.

Exhibitions at the Cooper Hewitt | Hear, See, Play: Designing with Sound
Become a sound designer for a street-cleaner called Trash Bot at Hear, See, Play: Designing with Sound. This kid-friendly exhibit invites us to consider how design objects that fill our lives beep, chime, squawk, and buzz at us. Professional sound designers choose these particular sounds to signify that the object is doing its tasks effectively and to improve the user's interaction with the object. Your street-cleaning machine will make noises to mimic a human-like ability to communicate with others and express its individuality. Through October 21.
Exhibitions at the Cooper Hewitt: Moustiers Ceramics
Significant ceramic pieces from Moustiers-Sainte-Marie, France are displayed behind glass at this exhibit, Moustiers Ceramics: Gifts from the Eugene V. and Clare E. Thaw Collection.

Exhibitions at Cooper Hewitt Design Museum: Immersion Room
An often overlooked element of design is wall-covering, whether it's a one-of-a-kind wallpaper or a simple coat of paint.

Transform the room's wallpaper from a Sahara desert-inspired pattern to line drawings of tangled chairs against an orange background. Or you can design your own! Ongoing.
Exhibitions at Cooper Hewitt Design Museum: Models & Prototypes Gallery
Study models of buildings and staircases at the Models & Prototypes Gallery. These masterful wooden miniatures were created by students from the compagnonnage tradition in the 18th and 19th centuries. Architecture students lived and worked together, taking geometry courses and later apprenticing with design masters. The models show us an important step in the design process, in which prototypes prepare the builders to execute the full-size work and expose any technical or aesthetic flaws as soon as possible. Ongoing.
Exhibitions at the Cooper Hewitt | The Senses: Design Beyond Vision
Get in touch with all five senses as you listen to glass, play a furry instrument, and smell a snowstorm at The Senses: Design Beyond Vision. The objects in this exhibit showcase designers' out-of-the-box thinking about the utility of everyday objects like benches, spoons, typographical text, and maps. These objects cater especially to disabled users and are accompanied with braille labels and a unique smartphone app for the exhibition.

By Liz White, ERJ staff
Boston, Massachusetts-Ampro Computers Inc. and White Electronic Designs Corp, have together produced a prototype industrial computer, "contained entirely within a 5.5 x 8 inch keypad enclosure," the two firms announced 13 Sept.
This novel device couples Ampro's ReadyBoard, EPIC-compatible single-board computers with White's elastomer keypad, mounted over sealed keypad circuitry. As a result, the rugged computer is highly resistant to contaminants and ideal for users who need to be able to clean and/or disinfect the keypad surface.
The keypad is backlit…

<select> menu with an ajax callback to update a
belongs_to relationship when changed. By default the menu contains every record in the target model's table.
include-none: Should the menu include a "none" option (true/false). Defaults: false, or true if the association is nil at render-time.
blank-message: The text for the "none" option. Default: "(No Product)" (or whatever the model name is)
sort: Sort the options (true/false)? Default: false
update: one or more DOM ID's (comma separated string or an array) to be updated as part of the ajax call.
NOTE: yes that's DOM ID's not part-names. A common source of confusion because by default the part name and DOM ID are the same.

Croome's orchard
Croome's orchard has a mixture of young trees planted by staff and volunteers over the past 15 years, as well as older trees which hint at the use of the land over the past 300 years.
At Croome we have several hundred fruit trees which are mainly located near our visitor centre in an area called Sandy Orchard. The older trees are mostly varieties of cider apple; in fact we have records to show that workers would have been paid in cider at one point so there would have been many more cider apple trees than exist now.
We have re-planted over 100 apple trees since 2000, and chosen local varieties appropriate to the period such as the cookers Warner's King from late 1700s, Wagener (1791), Bramley's Seedling (1809) and dessert apples Ashmead's Kernel (1700), Pitmaston Pineapple (1785), and Worcester Pearmain (1873). We have also planted some plums, Pershore (Yellow Egg), Victoria and Warwickshire Drooper, as well as pears including the local variety Worcester Black.
Cider apples were traditionally grown here, but we also have several local eating varieties of apples and pears some which date back to the eighteenth century such as Worcester Black Pear, Worcester Pearmain, Ashmead's Kernel and Pitmaston Pineapple.
We have a group of volunteers dedicated to working in the orchard, they carry out all the pruning as well as the clearing around the trees and mulching, and in Autumn the fruit picking.
We have a juicing event in early October each year where visitors can bring fruit from home to juice. Apples may be available to purchase from Croome's orchard – subject to availability. The volunteers help to run this event. We will run this again from Saturday 13 to Monday 15 October 2018.
The trees themselves are ecologically very important; the insect Celypha woodiana is found living in the mistletoe in a couple of the older trees in the orchard so we must ensure that these are maintained. We have planted new trees nearby and have encouraged the growth of mistletoe on these new trees as further habitat.

So, off you go.
You went away.
Today I signed on a piece of paper that broke the link that I had with you. Perhaps it was already broken. The signature was the last ritual. I almost broke into tears as I put pen to the paper. But alas, I couldn't. And I could see that you were happy. Happy to be promoted. Happy to succeed. Your ambition fuels you. If your ambitions are not fulfilled, you feel sense of loss.
And, yet you preach. You preach patience. You preach belief. You tell me to wait. Tell me honestly, could you?
I was disheartened. Totally. I can see the happiness. Did you feel bad even for a moment for me? Didnt you feel as if you are betraying me? And, the ignition. Lol..you took the bait – Hook line and sinker.
Today you demonstrated your priorities- you love your recognition more than you do love me. Imagine if I had done the same. You'd be nowhere. I reestablished you in front of SPSJ. Does MKB knows that I did all the job you proudly showed him as yours ? Do you think BSP would have won vayoshrestha without me ?
Sorry to puncture holes in your deflated ego, but you will learn one day that nothing works like grace. You know, often our actions results into reactions that are borne by our kids.
You says one's locus should be internal. Hell. Is it yours? Yours is fully external. You are like a social butterfly who is enthralled at attention, who revels in it and fails to acknowledge her real source of strength.
May the almighty give sadbuddhi to you. May it fuel your ambition into a raging fire which consumes all that you love and hold sacred.
Good bye dear girl. It was good while it lasted.

Hybrid Pass Up – What Is TANI RefundHolding Period
Thank you for coming to our site in looking for "What Is TANI RefundHolding Period" online.
Anyone can become a Bitcoin miner running software with specialized hardware. Mining software listen for broadcast transactions on the peer-to-peer network and perform the appropriate jobs to process and support these transactions. Bitcoin miners do this because they are able to bring in transaction fees paid by users for quicker transaction processing, and new bitcoins in existence are under denominated formulas.
Since one of the oldest forms of making money is in money financing, it's a fact you could do that with cryptocurrency. Most of the lending sites now focus on Bitcoin, some of those sites you might be required fill in a captcha after a certain time frame and are rewarded with a bit of coins for seeing them. You are able to see the www.cryptofunds.co web site to locate some lists of of these sites to tap into the money of your choice. Unlike forex, stocks and options, etc., altcoin marketplaces have very different dynamics. New ones are constantly popping up which means they do not have a lot of market data and historical outlook for you to backtest against. Most altcoins have somewhat poor liquidity as well and it is hard to think of a reasonable investment strategy.
Only a fraction of bitcoins issued so far can be found on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, which implies the price a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Lots of people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This limits the amount of bitcoins that are really circulating in the exchanges. In addition, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. Hence, even the most diligent buyer could not purchase all present bitcoins. This scenario isn't to imply that markets are not exposed to price manipulation, yet there's no requirement for large sums of money to move market prices up or down. The merest occasions on the planet economy can change the price of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency explosive.
Cryptocurrency is freeing individuals to transact money and do business on their terms. Each user can send and receive payments in the same way, but in addition they participate in more elaborate smart contracts. Multiple signatures enable a transaction to be supported by the network, but where a specific number of a defined group of folks consent to sign the deal, blockchain technology makes this possible. This allows innovative dispute mediation services to be developed in the foreseeable future. These services could enable a third party to approve or reject a transaction in the event of disagreement between the other parties without checking their money. Unlike cash and other payment systems, the blockchain consistently leaves public evidence that a transaction occurred. This can be possibly used in an appeal against companies with deceptive practices.
Bitcoin is the principal cryptocurrency of the web: a digital money standard by which all other coins are compared to. Cryptocurrencies are distributed, global, and decentralized. Unlike conventional fiat currencies, there's no authorities, banks, or every other regulatory agencies. As such, it really is more resistant to outrageous inflation and tainted banks. The benefits of using cryptocurrencies as your method of transacting money online outweigh the security and privacy risks. Security and seclusion can readily be attained by simply being clever, and following some basic guidelines. You wouldn't place your whole bank ledger online for the word to see, but my nature, your cryptocurrency ledger is publicized. This can be fastened by removing any identity of ownership from your wallets and thus keeping you anonymous.

Ethereum is an unbelievable cryptocurrency platform, nevertheless, if growth is too quickly, there may be some issues. If the platform is adopted fast, Ethereum requests could improve drastically, and at a rate that surpasses the rate with which the miners can create new coins. Under such a scenario, the whole stage of Ethereum could become destabilized because of the increasing costs of running distributed programs. In turn, this could dampen interest Ethereum stage and ether. Uncertainty of demand for ether can lead to an adverse change in the economic parameters of an Ethereum based business that could result in business being unable to continue to run or to stop operation.
You have probably noticed this many times where you often spread the nice word about crypto. It is not volatile? What happens when the cost accidents? to date, several POS programs gives free transformation of fiat, improving some issue, but before the volatility cryptocurrencies is resolved, most of the people is going to be resistant to put on any. We must find a method to combat the volatility that is inherent in cryptocurrencies.
The physical Internet backbone that carries data between the various nodes of the network is currently the work of a number of companies called Internet service providers (ISPs), including companies that offer long-distance pipelines, sometimes at the international level, regional local conduit, which finally connects in homes and businesses. The physical connection to the Internet can only occur through any of these ISPs, players like degree 3, Cogent, and IBM AT&T. Each ISP operates its own network. Internet service providers Exchange IXPs, owned or private firms, and sometimes by Governments, make for each of these networks to be interconnected or to transfer messages across the network. Many ISPs have agreements with providers of physical Internet backbone providers to offer Internet service over their networks for last mile-consumers and businesses who want to get Internet connectivity. Internet protocols, followed by everyone in the network makes it possible for the info to stream without interruption, in the right place at the perfect time.
While none of these organizations possesses the Internet together these firms determine how it operates, and established rules and standards that everyone remains. Contracts and legal framework that underlies all that is taking place to ascertain how things work and what happens if something bad happens. To get a domain name, for instance, one needs consent from a Registrar, which has a contract with ICANN. To connect to the Internet, your ISP must be physical contracts with providers of Internet backbone services, and suppliers have contracts with IXPs from the Internet backbone to connect to and with her. Concern over security dilemmas? A working group is formed to work with the issue and the solution developed and deployed is in the interest of most parties. If the Internet is down, you might have someone to call to get it repaired. If the difficulty is from your ISP, they in turn have contracts in place and service level agreements, which govern the way in which these issues are worked out.
The benefit of cryptocurrency is that it uses blockchain technology. The network of nodes the make up the blockchain isn't governed by any centered business. No one can tell the miners to update, speed up, slow down, stop or do anything. And that is something that as a devoted supporter badge of honour, and is identical to the way the Internet operates. But as you understand now, public Internet governance, normalities and rules that govern how it works current built-in problems to the user. Blockchain technology has none of that.
Many individuals choose to use a currency deflation, especially those that want to save. Despite the criticism and disbelief, a cryptocurrency coin may be better suited for some applications than others. Monetary solitude, for instance, is amazing for political activists, but more debatable as it pertains to political campaign financing. We need a stable cryptocurrency for use in commerce; If you are living paycheck to paycheck, it would take place included in your riches, with the rest reserved for other currencies.

It should be difficult to get more modest increases (~ 10%) throughout the day. Study how to read these Candlestick charts! And I found these two rules to be true: having modest increases is more lucrative than trying to resist up to the pinnacle. Most day traders follow Candlestick, therefore it is better to take a look at publications than wait for order confirmation when you think the price is going down. Second, there is more unpredictability and compensation in currencies that have not made it to the profitability of websites like Coinwarz.
You are able to run a search on the web. First learn, then models, indicators and most importantly practice looking at old charts and pick out trends. Anytime you learn to keep a trading diary screenshots and your comment/forecast. Precisely what is the best way to get confident with charts IMHO. Oh certainly, and don't fool yourself into thinking that you get the uptrend will never drop! Always will go down! You will discover that incremental benefits are more reliable and profitable (most times)
The creation of sites has altered many lives, but there's always a concern in regards to the security of sites. There are other people who have ill intentions who will see what you are doing online. They can track your tendencies over time. Some of the matters they are able to check online include seeing your online photos, what you post online and even track your financial transitions over time with an aim of stealing from you. Even if there are many alternatives which have been implemented, there's always danger due to third parties. For instance, when buying online using a credit card, you are going to be giving away lots of your personal information to the third party. There are also trade fees which make online payment expensive.
It's certainly possible, but it must have the ability to understand opportunities irrespective of marketplace conduct. The market moves in relation to cost BTC … So even supposing it's in a BTC trend down can make money by purchasing the altcoins which are altcoin oversold trading ratios-BTC. Sure, your purchasing power in DOLLARS may be lower, but as long as your purchasing power in BTC is still growing you will be ok.

Cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, LiteCoin, Ether, YOCoin, and many others have already been designed as a non-fiat currency. To put it differently, its backers argue that there's actual value, even through there isn't any physical representation of that value. The value grows due to computing power, that is, is the only way to create new coins distributed by allocating CPU power via computer programs called miners. Miners create a block after a period of time that's worth an ever diminishing amount of currency or some sort of benefit to be able to ensure the deficit. Each coin includes many smaller components. For Bitcoin, each component is called a satoshi. Operations that take place during mining are just to authenticate other transactions, such that both creates and authenticates itself, a simple and elegant solution, which can be one of the appealing aspects of the coin. Once created, each Bitcoin (or 100 million satoshis) exists as a cipher, that is part of the block that gave rise to it. The blockchain is where the public record of transactions dwells. Most all cryptocurrencies function as Bitcoin does.
The fact that there's little evidence of any growth in using virtual money as a currency may be the reason there are minimal attempts to control it. The reason behind this could be simply that the market is too little for cryptocurrencies to warrant any regulatory attempt. It really is also possible the regulators just do not understand the technology and its implications, anticipating any developments to act.
In the event of a fully functioning cryptocurrency, it could possibly be traded like a thing. Advocates of cryptocurrencies announce that form of virtual cash isn't controlled with a fundamental banking system and it is not therefore susceptible to the vagaries of its inflation. Since there are always a limited quantity of items, this cash's importance is founded on market forces, permitting entrepreneurs to business over cryptocurrency deals.
The wonder of the cryptocurrencies is that scam was proved an impossibility: as a result of nature of the process by which it is transacted. All transactions on the crypto-currency blockchain are permanent. Once youare paid, you get paid. This is simply not something short term where your web visitors can dispute or require a concessions, or employ illegal sleight of hand. In-practice, many professionals would be smart to utilize a fee processor, because of the permanent nature of crypto-currency deals, you should make sure that security is difficult. With any kind of crypto-currency whether it be a bitcoin, ether, litecoin, or any of the numerous additional altcoins, thieves and hackers might gain access to your individual secrets and therefore steal your money. However, you probably can never get it back. It's vitally important for you really to adopt some excellent safe and secure routines when working with any cryptocurrency. This will guard you from many of these adverse functions.
Here is the coolest thing about cryptocurrencies; they don't physically exist anywhere, not even on a hard drive. When you examine a specific address for a wallet featuring a cryptocurrency, there's no digital information held in it, like in exactly the same way that a bank could hold dollars in a bank account. It's simply a representation of value, but there is absolutely no genuine tangible type of that value. Cryptocurrency wallets may not be confiscated or frozen or audited by the banks and the law. They would not have spending limits and withdrawal constraints imposed on them. No one but the owner of the crypto wallet can decide how their riches will be managed.

Only a fraction of bitcoins issued so far can be found on the exchange markets. Bitcoin markets are competitive, which implies the cost a bitcoin will rise or fall depending on supply and demand. Lots of people hoard them for long term savings and investment. This limits the amount of bitcoins that are truly circulating in the exchanges. Moreover, new bitcoins will continue to be issued for decades to come. So, even the most diligent buyer could not buy all present bitcoins. This situation is not to suggest that markets aren't vulnerable to price manipulation, yet there is certainly no requirement for large sums of cash to transfer market prices up or down. The merest occasions on earth economy can affect the cost of Bitcoin, This can make Bitcoin and any other cryptocurrency explosive.

Amy Lezala is Section Lead for Through Life Engineering based in Melbourne, Australia. Last year, at the age of 29, Amy became the youngest international Fellow for the IMechE (Institution of Mechanical Engineers). She told us about solving problems and why young engineers should embrace getting their hands dirty!
How did it feel to become the IMechE's youngest international Fellow? And what advice would you give to young women thinking about an engineering career?
It was amazing. I was in the office late that evening, and when I got the email I was very excited. It is a validation of all my hard work. In terms of a message specifically for women; this always grates on me. I don't see male or female engineers - instead, I always think, instead, of engineers who are passionate about their career. My advice to all young engineers is if you want it, go for it.
What do you enjoy most about your job?
Problem-solving. Throughout my career I have loved the variety and the "whole of life" aspect, which to me is sustainable engineering; finding solutions which optimise maintenance and asset value.
What advice would you give someone starting their rail engineering career?
Spend time in the depot or on a production line. Learn the product by getting your hands on it; crawl all over the trains and learn which part does what and where it goes. While I was at a depot during my graduate scheme, I was re-fitting a hose under a train and a box obstructed the fixing. It was very fiddly to reattach. One of the fitters who was supervising me said candidly: "Next time you design a train, remember this". I always have.
What should every visitor to Australia experience?
For nature, go to Queensland and the Northern Territory. In Queensland, explore Moreton and Fraser Islands in a 4x4, or go snorkelling to see tropical fish. Meanwhile, Melbourne is all about nightlife and culture.

How to GM Dynamic Combats
Like most of you, I've run a lot of combats down through the years, from all sorts of systems like Rifts (and the Palladium universe), AD&D, D&D 3.5, Pathfinder, Whitewolf and then a few smatterings of others. And one thing I've found is that combat is usually treated in a very regimented, organised way, which to my way of thinking tends to a) slow the game down and, b) take some of the excitement out of it.
Of course that's not always the case, but I can certainly remember being a pc and having a mild sense of boredom set in during the long waits in between my go, and everybody else's go, and then the bad guy's go. Incidentally, I didn't notice this very much when I was being a pc in AD&D, when our Dungeon Master seemed to go with the flow a lot, and rarely ever stopped to check for rules (he worked it all out according to his own mad logic — but it worked!). Unfortunately, as the D&D editions climbed, so the action started to slow — and (eek!) started to look a bit more like something out of a computer game, where you are all just trading blows at each other, whittling away Hit Points, until someone wins.
Don't get me wrong, I've still had epic games during all that time, where I've laughed and screamed and cheered (no tears…I held those back…okay fine, there were a few). But still, I couldn't help noticing that even when I GMed games (which later on ended up being most of the time), I found combats started to get a bit clunky, a little bit slower…and that the dynamism was missing.
These chaps look pretty dynamic.
Ah! Dynamism!
What do I mean by dynamism? I want the combat to feel like you're right there! I want it immediate, fast, in your face and brutal. I absolutely love it when the pc goes to hit the bad guy, and the bad guy ducks, then grabs his leg, and they both end up on the ground, then the bad guy gets kicked away, only to draw a knife, there's mud and blood in the pc's mouth…he scrabbles for a dropped weapon, and whilst still on his back manages to just swing it over and parry, then kicks the baddie in the nuts…
I think you get the idea. To me…it's awesome. They're not merely trading blows for ages (though this could happen of course…it would just hurt). Why? I guess there's a few reasons. One is that it's treated like real life, and the rules reflect every aspect of that (so some games favour this more than others), and another is that the weapons hurt more. In World of Warcraft people smash at each other for ages, clicking their mice to death in a button-bashing slaughter fest (wow…what a sentence!). But in reality, if you got hit by a sword, without armour on, you're going to be in a whole new world of hurt. So you're likely to do something to try to wiggle you way out — you may not just keep swinging your sword when this is clearly not working! Nope. Time to tackle/run/push or whatever will keep you alive longer.
Like Real Fighting
It's a bit like real fighting compared to some martial arts. I've done Tae Kwon Do for twenty years now, and a long time back I came to the stunning conclusion that the techniques we were shown didn't actually work all that well most of the time. And in reality, people were going to throw messy bunches of punches at your face, they're going to grab you, you're likely end up on the ground (where you can't kick or punch well at all)…and so on.
Not so likely…
Much more likely!
Anyway, with all those ideas bouncing around in my head for a while, I slowly and subtly started to change my combats, without ever fully realising it. Of course, it helped that I ended up making a whole new system. But of course, the entire point of making that system was to fit in with the way I wanted to play, and the way I wanted to push Tabletop RPG systems.
So How Do You Run Dynamic Combats Then?
I find it easier, faster and more fun to do a sort of free form of my combats and systems. And I do that across the boards. Describe the scene (loosely or in detail, but I usually make it quick, with enough detail to paint the picture for the pc's and get them going "Oh geez I want live! Oh bugger that's a big axe!"), everyone says what they're trying to do from the descriptions, from there see if there's any bonuses or penalties to initiative due to the circumstances, then roll for initiative to see who gets to act first. The GM can really arbitrate the finer points, and just makes sure the combat is going fast, intense, and awesome.
For example, in one of my games recently a pc was wielding a spear on the back of a flying eagle, against another eagle rider with a lance and shield (it was a pretty awesome game). From his Pilot rolls, he totally out manoeuvred the other eagle rider and got the jump on him. This gave him a big bonus to Initiative.
He dove onto the other rider, who was trying to evade him, and stabbed the poor bugger in the side, whilst his own eagle locked the other eagle in a life-and-death ball of biting and clawing. They started spinning and falling, the other guy lost his lance, and my pc kept up his stabbing with the spear, though it was hard due to their spinning, falling and flailing.
It looked a bit like this!
The other eagle died, so its rider leapt off and dove headwards in a pin drop, trying to escape my vengeful pc and his mad one-eyed eagle, who pursued…the poor NPC had no chance. Using Aeromancy (wind magicks), the pc flared the other guy out of his drop, and the nasty eagle chomped in, then tore him to bits… eek!
It was a really unusual combat, and it was absolutely dynamic, and flowed completely seamlessly.
Sometimes when I'm running games like this, I totally forget about Initiative…it's just "you do this…wow, ok he does this! Now you do this…cool, he does this!" Always going with what just seems to be happening in the game — if there's any problems, we just roll Initiative.
So what's the point of it all? Use logic. Don't follow the rules to exclusion of what seems like common sense. Common sense and flow are far, far more important to the game. And, ultimately give you what you're looking for in an RPG: awesome fun!
To be perfectly honest, this is what our very own Immersion RPG system is designed for — complete flexibility. It represents the situation and the characters, and then allows them to do as they wish in that situation. So if they want to go for a chair leg or a biro…heck, no problem. If you're interested in giving it a whirl, check out our free download page for playtesters. We've also got some exciting, brutal settings coming up soon (check out Infected!, a nightmarishly realistic vision of the zombie apocalypse here).
Enjoy your gaming!

As someone without strong memories of 80s pop culture — I was twelve by the time they were over, but I had spent most of that time in Narnia or the 1950s of Beverly Cleary and Franklin W. Dixon — there isn't a lot that makes me automatically think of those years, as opposed to the later years when I first encountered most of the usual 80s signifiers. (The early 2000s were my personal golden age of synth-pop.) So when this song came on and I was immediately back to lying on my side in a pastel apartment that belonged to a friend of my mother's, playing her radio very quietly as I flipped through stations for the first time ever, searching for I didn't know what but feeling the scary thrill of doing something unpredictable and secretive, I was startled. Perhaps because my main memory of that first experiment with that forbidden world, secular pop, was disappointed surprise that it didn't sound very different from the Christian pop I knew. (I couldn't possibly hazard a guess as to what I heard then; extracts from the Top Gun soundtrack? Whitney, Debbie, Chaka? The "terrible suddenness" of Rick?) I don't know what I had expected, but it wasn't the same pastel-colored vaguely electronic splashiness I knew from Michael W. Smith and First Call and Teri DeSario; when, two years later in Guatemala, I first heard Megadeth, I knew that that was the terror and ecstasy I had feared.
Personal history aside, this still sounds very close to the Platonic ideal of 1980s music, at least in that familiar narrative in which the 1980s was a nadir for music, only rescued by the grunge revolution of 1992. The electronic timekeeping, neither quite throb nor chug, the drumpad rhythm, the saxophone from which all memory of r&b sweat and lust has been leached away (and which thereby anticipates the Kenny G-ridden 90s). I don't intend to suggest that this is in any way a bad thing, though some will no doubt see it as such — in fact, anything which can stand in so completely for an abstract idea (here, "hairsprayed commercial music of the 80s") is admirable.
In tracking José José's previous appearances in this journey, I've compared him (with slight justification) to Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett. But the oblique, reserved way he delivers this song, in a tender, exaggerated croon over a bed of bustling electronics, reminds me of no one so much as Bryan Ferry. Not that I'm claiming this as the Latin response to "More Than This," or anything so foolish; rather, both Ferry and José were inspired by vocalists of the pre-soul era, and the electronic, high-gloss production which Roxy Music did so much to make the standard sound of adult pop reached a particular kind of cheesy apogee here.
The lyrics are a fairly standard, if admirably economical, narrative of how Love Changes Everything (call it the "I'm A Believer" template). He watched life go by, he couldn't disguise his sadness, hurt or loneliness, at time he lost hope of someday sharing his life with . . . (wait for it) . . . someone like you! "Como Tú" means "like you" (the comparative like, not the verb), which doesn't quite count as a complete phrase in English the way it does in Spanish — there have been at least four other hit songs since 1989 with the same title. Chorus: [someone] like you, he dreamed of someone like you, who would immediately change his dreams and his luck, and you arrived. Well done, the idealized you!
This is exactly the kind of fluff its expiration-dated production would suggest, the romantic nonsense on which pop careers have always been built, and which goes down so easily it hardly leaves a trace on the tongue. Hating it would be as disproportionate as loving it: it's just there, the soundtrack to a pointless reverie without which life would be slightly duller.

LONDON (CBS.MW) -- British American Tobacco's merger of its U.S. unit with R.J. Reynolds helped bolster London shares, but BP's forecast-missing results and weakness in the banking stocks capped the market's gains.
The FTSE 100 index (1805550) rose 0.5 percent to 4,273, while European markets saw stronger gains. See story on European markets.
U.S. markets saw a moderate advance in early New York trading, helped to bolster the FTSE. Consumer confidence rose more than expected in October. See story on U.S. markets.
The Fed Open Market Committee will be meeting later in the day to discuss interest rates.
"The FOMC are going to try to stress risks because they won't want rates to rise too fast," said John Hardy, a research analyst for Saxo Bank in Copenhagen.
British American soars from deal
British American Tobacco (BATS) (BTI: news, chart, profile) surged over 12 percent after agreeing to sell its Brown & Williamson unit to North Carolina-based R.J. Reynolds (RJR: news, chart, profile), with the merged assets forming a newly created company called Reynolds American.
British American will take 42 percent of the venture, plus take an additional $400 million in cash for the sale of its cigar factory. See story on merger.
Peer Gallaher Group (GLH) GLH, +2.49% rose 4.7 percent, on hopes that it could be a takeover candidate, while Imperial Tobacco (IMT) ITY eased 1.3 percent.
Oil giant BP (BP) BP, +0.21% eased 1 percent after it posted a 25 percent rise in adjusted net profit to $2.868 billion from higher oil and gas prices. Its earnings per share rose to 78 cents, which was ahead of the year ago's 62 cents but below analyst forecasts of 83 cents. See story on BP.
It said refining margins have started the fourth quarter below the third quarter and are expected to soften further and revert to more typical levels. BP said economic growth is expected in the fourth quarter, and oil prices will depend upon the recovery of exports from Iraq and the degree of OPEC's production restraint. Full year capital expenditure will be slightly below the $14-14.5 billion range indicated previously, due to "continuous refinement of our spending programs."
Barclays (BARC) BCS, +1.34% declined 0.4 percent on the continued impact from Bank of America's purchase of FleetBoston, as Barclays had been seen as a possible takeover candidate for the Charlotte, N.C. bank. Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) also fell, down 0.9 percent, on concerns that it might join the buying frenzy.
Not all banks in the U.K. were lower. HSBC (HBC: news, chart, profile)(UK:HSBA: news, chart, profile) advanced 2.6 percent as it agreed to buy Bank of Bermuda (BBDA: news, chart, profile) for $1.3 billion in cash, a 16.3 percent premium to its average closing price over the last three months. HSBC said the acquisition will add significant scale and geographical spread to its existing international fund administration, private banking, trustee and payments and cash management businesses
WPP Q3 revenues up 10%
British advertising agency WPP Group (UK:WPP: news, chart, profile) (WPPGY: news, chart, profile), one of the world's largest, rose 3.2 percent after saying third quarter revenue rose 10 percent to £1 billion. On a like-for-like basis, excluding acquisitions, sales rose 1 percent. Advertising and media investment management revenue rose close to 14 percent; public relations and public affairs "was almost flat," WPP said.
Looking ahead, WPP affirmed margins are in line with its revised target.
Vodafone Group (VOD) VOD, +0.99% rose 3.3 percent after its partly-owned U.S. unit, Verizon Wireless, posted strong quarterly revenues.
Two analyst downgrades, from HSBC and UBS, helped to lower the restructuring food and beverage group Cadbury Schweppes (CBRY) by 3.3 percent. On Monday, Cadbury said it would cut 10 percent of its workforce and 20 percent of its factories.
Growing sales at insurer Friends
Insurer Friends Provident (UK:FP: news, chart, profile) rose 1.9 percent after it said third quarter life and pensions sales on an annual premium equivalent, the industry's measure of growth, rose 24 percent to £114 million over the year-ago. The new business figure topped the average forecast from analysts at £102 million.

Acupuncture for Harnessing Willpower
Ever had one of those days or weeks where you just can't pull yourself out of bed in the morning? Or perhaps you just can't say "No!" to the dessert tray. Regardless of the activity, willpower is what keeps some people disciplined. But it doesn't make you a bad person if you have dessert with every meal, buy

Sue added a band with fringe around the neckline and also the bottom of the back making this a short sleeved jacket. The warp for the trim is the same as the material for the top, but the weft colors differed. Click on the photo above for a more detailed view of painting and handwoven top.
Here is a close up. What a great garment using the painting as color and texture ideas.
The next handwoven inspiration comes from Marcy's loom. She wove a series of towels in colors found in the painting.
All of the towels are lovely, but my favorite color combination is in the close up below. The structures are twill and basketweave.
By the way, Thiebaud is pronounced Tee-bo!

Cuban spy hailed by Obama as a hero is fine, sister says
MADRID (AP) – The sister of a convicted Cuban spy traded to the U.S. for jailed Cuban intelligence agents but out of sight for nearly a month says he is fine in the U.S.
Vilma Sarraff told The Associated Press on Tuesday she spoke for the first time with 51-year-old Rolando Sarraff since his Dec. 17 release. She declined to offer more details.
He was identified by a former U.S. official as the released spy who President Barack Obama hailed as one of Washington's most valuable assets.
Vilma Sarraff, who lives in Spain, and her parents who are in Cuba, were never told where Rolando Sarraff went after his release amid a big thaw in U.S.-Cuban relations.
Cuban officials told the parents only that their son was better off.

Warming Land exploration and first ascent. There is a picturesque valley in the extreme north of Greenland that is reminiscent of the Yosemite in California, with vertical walls topped by ice capped domes and mesas. It is intermittently intruded by glacial arms and is punctuated by a sublime chain of lakes. A 3,000-foot castle peak stands monolithically at its head. The triangular peninsula in which this valley resides is called Warming Land. Our National Geographic- sponsored expedition in July made the first crossing of this peninsula from Saint Georges Fjord to Hartz Sund and back again. A subtle divide in the central valley sheds to an eastern and a western river. A second western river feeds from a second picturesque mountain valley adjacent to Saint Georges Fjord. We began at the mouth of this second western river. It appeared uncrossable but for the natural bridges cut into the limestone bedrock. The expedition proceeded across a natural bridge and was on its way. The favor of fortune at that river was to repeat itself throughout.
The weather was fair and an easy route was found through a ridge of pyramids to the central western river. This river led us into the central valley. An advance base camp was established in three days at the eastern lake at the heart of the central valley. From here we set out down the canyons of the eastern river to Hartz Sund. A solo climber made the ascent of the monolith from the west side through a succession of walls, chimneys and shelves. He reached the summit as the first snow storm of the day began to clear. After two more snow storms and 22 hours of exploring all members were back at advance base camp. In good weather we returned to Saint Georges Fjord across the grain of the ridge country and over a fine, high pass at the margin of the western icefields. A maze of corridors through the miniature ice caps led to an ice-dammed lake and the headwaters of the second western river. We discovered another sequence of limestone tunnels in the upper regions of this river. One day down the river took the expedition back to the west coast. We departed from the same alluvial shelf along Saint Georges Fjord where we had arrived two weeks earlier. Personnel included National Geographic writer Gretel Ehrlich, National Geographic photographer David MacLean, CBS correspondent Bill Gasperini, ornithologist Betsy Fejkis, Dr. Miki Rifkin, Dr. Frank Landsberger, Patti Scott, Jeff Scott, Chuck Stielau, and myself as leader.

Goofy Mad Moppist
Oh the strangeness. I don't blame him for trying to stop the madness before my camera came out! If I had been just a few seconds earlier, you would have seen the mad moppist attempting to break the world record for mop shaking. Yes, it did start with a purpose. Chores. The mop was wet and I asked him to shake it out. Well ... he did! It was quite the performance!
By the way ... can you believe it's NOVEMBER and the grass is still green?

Gwyneth Paltrow says steaming your vagina cleans your uterus and its the latest spa treatment all women should try. Coming from someone who once advised women to give "more blow jobs," this could be serious.
With the help of her website, the 42-year-old actress is suggesting that females should blow hot steam into their V-jay-jays to be more comfortable asking their men to go down low! She also seeks for investors for her new V-steam project.
"The real golden ticket here is the Mugworth V-Steam: You sit on what is essentially a mini-throne, and a combination of infrared and mugwort steam cleanses your uterus, et al," the actress said in goop's enlightening review of Tikkun Spa.
"It is an energetic release—not just a steam douche—that balances female hormone levels," the blonde actress added.
Meanwhile, Dr. Jen Gunter, a board certified OB/GYN and expert in vulvovaginal disorders, tells People, she would not recommend the treatment.
"Steam is probably not good for your vagina. Herbal steam is no better and quite possibly worse," Dr. Gunter warns.
"Mugwort or wormwood or whatever when steamed, either vaginally or on the vulva, can't possibly balance any reproductive hormones, regulate your menstrual cycle, treat depression, or cure infertility."
In 2013, Chris Martin's ex wife told Chelsea Handler's 'Chelsea Lately' that powerful women should give frequent blow jobs to their men to prevent fights and make men feel more secure.
Now she's all about steaming your private part? Damn!

Today is the only official pre-scheduled day of the year that I get to sleep in. It's tradition now. I sleep in and then we all go for brunch at my sister-in-law's house where I eat my weight in some sort of delicious baked french toast concoction and open my lovely homemade gifts made by the very people who make it possible for me to be celebrating this day. Yes. Today. Sleep in. Only, it's just after 8am. And here I am. Wide awake.
I am broken.
I don't know if maybe it is because my youngest is five and my babies are no longer babies who get up at the buttcrack of dawn wanting milk or to eat or to play or to have my complete and total attention. In fact, two of my three children are still asleep right now; and the third would be content to snuggle in bed with me while I sleep and she watches Full House. (Note to new moms everywhere: You will sleep again!) Or maybe it's because with my fantastic new job comes a not-so-fantastic wake-up call at, gulp, 6:15am. So, if you are doing the math at home, when you are waking up in the SIXES every day, sleeping in until somewhere in the EIGHTS is actually a sleep-in.
Either way. I am up.
(What's that you say? You'd really like to bring me coffee in bed? Very well, I accept!)
I am doing very important things, I'll have you know.
I am dicking around on Facebook. I mean, it's super important that I look at, and drool over, my sister's Australia pictures.
I am finishing up one of the best books I have read in a while. My Name is Mary Sutter by Robin Oliveira. It's like a Civil-War time Grey's Anatomy; only a thousand times better and less trashy. Also, I am such a history nerd; it's sad.
I am looking at this picture that this amazing, amazing lady took of me wearing my wedding dress and eating a crapload of hostess cupcakes and wondering why I never thought to do this before.
(copyright @Jennifer Gilbert 2011. Please don't steal. Also, hire her. You won't be sorry!)
This picture has been 13 years in the making. I can't wait to see the whole set…these are the wedding pictures I never had.
I am deleting the 400 emails I wake up to every morning. Old Navy, Old Navy Canada, Gap, Gap Canada, Banana Republic, GapKids, Bath & Body Works, ALDO, MAC Cosmetics online, Gymboree. I am so sick of seeing these all polluting my inbox all at once. And don't get me started on the PopSugar Daily emails; no matter how many times I have unsubscribed from their emails that I never signed up for in the first place, they never go away.
I am waiting for my family.
(copyright @Jennifer Gilbert 2011. Please don't steal. Also, hire her. You won't be sorry!)
Where are they?
Where are they?
Oh well, I guess I'll go find them myself…
Happy Mother's Day everyone! xoxo

On Saturday afternoon, ABC Grandstand ventured to the Barmera Oval to broadcast the RFL Grand Final between Loxton and Renmark.

The dust has not settled and the celebrations are out of control. Well played Renmark!
What a day! ABC Grandstand had a ball and saw the underdogs thump the Loxton Tigers in the only one that counts.
The Barmera Oval was the location for that one day in September and the Rovers didn't disappoint.
They won by 83 points with the Camplins snagging 9 goals between them.
Speaking of sausages, the red dust added to their flavour.
Coach Brenton Veneables was a proud man as the weary lads did a lap of honour to celebrate the first flag since 1995.
Congratulations to all of those tireless workers who made the day such a success.
Even the mites and the mosquitoes were friendly.
Country football is alive and well.
Lets hope the players from Renmark fit into that category with the party in full swing.

Are You Experiencing Some Hair Loss Here are the Causes
Simply said, hair loss can be devastating, no matter the reason. Here is a brief overview of five common causes of hair loss in women. If any of these sound like they may apply to you, or even if they don't, but you've been experiencing increased hair loss, a visit to your doctor is recommended.
Androgenetic (Androgenic) Alopecia: Hereditary Hair Loss or Female Pattern Hair Loss
According to the American Academy of Dermatology, androgenic alopecia is the most common type of hair loss. It typically occurs as women near or enter menopause, though it can begin much earlier. Both genetic and environmental factors, including declining hormone levels, play a role in the build up of the hormone, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), in the hair follicles. DHT causes hair follicles to shrink, producing progressively finer and thinner hair. It also causes the growth stage of hair to decrease and the resting stage to extend, leading to fewer and fewer actively growing follicles.
Genes that signal for production of the hormone DHT (dihydrotestosterone) may become more active due to changes in the hormonal environment, and/or receptors for DHT in the follicles become more sensitive. DHT causes the growth stage of hair to shorten and the resting (dormant) stage to extend, so there are less follicles actively growing hair. DHT also causes the hair follicle to shrink, producing progressively finer and thinner hair. Additionally, progesterone is a natural inhibitor of the enzyme (5-alpha reductase) that converts testosterone to DHT, so declining progesterone levels allow more conversion to occur.
Telogen Effluvium: Is Your Hair Going Down the Drain, Literally?
Telogen effluvium can occur when there has been a significant shock to your system, such as surgery, illness, loss of a loved one, drastic weight loss, pregnancy, or from certain medications. Anywhere from one to four months after the stressful event, you may start to notice dramatically more hair in the shower drain or in your hairbrush, or that your hair is suddenly "coming out by the handful."
When the body experiences extreme stress or significant hormonal changes, an increased number of hair follicles may prematurely enter the 'resting' stage (telogen phase), in the body's effort to conserve energy for vital needs. When the follicles re-enter their growth phase in the following weeks, the old hair is naturally shed. Because of the higher proportion of follicles entering the growth phase all at the same time, a more noticeable amount of hair loss occurs.
The good news? Though recovery can take a few months, the hair will typically regrow once the stressful situation has resolved. Treatment is not usually necessary other than supportive measures such as a healthy diet and natural supplements.
The thyroid gland is vitally important to overall health, as it regulates our entire metabolism. When the thyroid is underactive (hypothyroidism), all cellular activity is decreased, body-wide. This includes the rate of cell division within the matrix of the hair follicle, which forms the hair shaft, and results in slower hair growth and thinner, weaker hair. Other symptoms of hypothyroid may include fatigue, depression, dry skin, constipation, brittle nails, weight gain/difficulty losing weight, or sensitivity to cold/heat.
When your body does not have enough iron, either from poor diet, decreased absorption, or loss due to bleeding (e.g., heavy menstruation, giving birth, chronic gastrointestinal bleeding, surgery, or trauma), it is unable to produce sufficient oxygen-carrying hemoglobin in your red blood cells. This is known as iron-deficiency anemia. Without adequate oxygen, your hair follicles (amongst all other cells in your body) can't function properly, resulting in slower hair growth that is progressively thinner and weaker, and eventually hair loss.
Trichotillomania is the compulsive urge to pull out one's hair, which can lead to noticeable breakage, hair of varying lengths, and hair loss. The action of pulling has been strongly associated with stress, anxiety, and depression, though other events can also trigger it. The most common age of onset of trichotillomania is during preadolescence, and it affects approximately 3.5 percent of females. Its prevalence is likely higher, though, as individuals may feel embarrassed or alone in their suffering and not seek support. Increased awareness of this condition has grown, with treatment and support groups available which can be life-changing.

Tell us a bit about yourself….
My name is Kathryn Petroff, and I am the owner of KLP Fine Art. I work as a full time artist/muralist, creating custom murals and portraits for residential and commercial clients. I also create and sell my own creative gallery works in oils and conte. I relocated a few years ago from my home town of Dallas to the small mountain community of Bailey, CO and travel between the two areas for projects.
As you have grown within your talent, what inspires you to create?
It's a bit broad, but life inspires me. I don't have to force an idea. Life just happens, and I pull from that. My style definitely combines an edginess that influenced me growing up in Dallas along with the peacefulness of nature that I am surrounded by today. I love layering visuals and their meanings in my paintings to mimic the complex layers of memories I hold onto.
How long have you been producing your craft and why did you begin this form of expression?
Well, I would assume I've been creating my entire life…at least, as long as I can remember. I grew up in a family of artists, and that was just part of everyday life in our house. It was how we bonded and shared ideas. When I went off to college, the question was never, "Are you going to major in Business or Science?" It was, "Are you majoring in Visual Arts or Dance?" I have always had great support with my creative endeavors, and there was never a question that this is simply who I am.
What do you ultimately want to accomplish with your talent?
I think the dreams of becoming rich and famous are a bit silly to hope for, and typically mean you are just good at following the trend of the moment. I just want to paint what I feel and know that it has inspired someone, whether it's to look at something in a new way or to keep pushing in their own creativity. I'm going to paint regardless of if I sell work or not. It's my oxygen, and I can't live without it.
Outside of your artistry, what other interests do you have?
My husband and I are big nature fanatics. (Obviously. Not many people would pick up and move to the woods.) We hike every second possible, backpack, camp, bike, etc. Our one year old son comes right along with us and is so much fun to watch exploring the mountains. Darkroom Photography and Dance have always been dear to my heart as well, and you can see many visuals from them pulled into my artwork.
What was your first experience with ArtLoveMagic?
My first experience with ArtLoveMagic was several years ago, right after I had just started my business. I saw an online ad for an event they were having at the Janette Kennedy Gallery, and I contacted them to see if I could get involved. They were super positive and asked me to be part of the show. When I showed up people kept coming up to me saying, "Oh, you're the conte chick!" I later found out that most of my art buddies from high school and college were already involved in their events too. It just felt like a good match from the beginning.
What web address can one go to to view more of what you do?
My website is http://www.klpfineart.com. You can also find KLP Fine Art on Facebook and YouTube.
How can someone contact you?
You can email me at email@example.com or contact me through my website.
