Ekin Fil Maps // LP / Digital
Our fourth production with Ekin, Maps quietly continues her complex dream-pop compositions, following her very well received Ghosts Inside LP as well as the acclaimed soundtrack to Inflame. The saddest songs of The Durutti Column excised of rhythm and those few plunges into sorrow by Harold Budd make for apt comparisons to Maps, in addition to the drone-on classics of Grouper, Slowdive, and Sarah Davachi.
Fosil Sangiran Pasar Fosil // Cassette / Digital
Fosil Sangiran Khayal Kuno // Cassette / Digital
The pseudonym for Seattle polymath Matt Shoemaker (1974-2017). The two recordings that have been uncovered from his archives under this moniker were recorded during a lengthy sabbatical in Java, Indonesia between 2012 and 2013. Though these works both operate very clearly within Shoemaker's aesthetic, he choose to operate under this moniker to provide a clarifying distance from what he believed to be his commonplace birth name. Sangiran refers to the UNESCO world heritage site in Indonesia where numerous archeological discoveries have been made providing insight into the understanding of early human development. It's an apt metaphor to his churning arrays of psychotropic sound design, which give the allusion of being distressed from aeons of jungle rot.
Fossil Aerosol Mining Project August 53rd // LP / Digital
Continuing their post-industrial dialectics through their "songs of enhanced decay and faked resurrection," the Fossil Aerosol Mining Project has been quietly producing such works since the '80s with a uniform brilliance in the exquisite reconstruction of exhumed cassette tapes and moldering 35mm film stock. August 53rd harbors the rich enigmas of distressed sound collages found in the work of likeminded artists such as Philip Jeck, Felicia Atkinson, and of course Fossil Aerosol's occasional collaborators :zoviet*france:.
Stelzer/Murray Connector // Cassette / Digital
Stelzer/Murray is the duo of Brendan Murray and Howard Stelzer, two stalwarts of the Boston noise / experimental scene over the past two decades. Through destroyed tape and long-view compositional strategies, the two manifest an irradiated, almost Kirlian glow through Connector's slow accretions and erosions amidst the soaring crescendos of compacted tone and vacant shadows of mechanical thrum.

I'm a freaking celebrity, I tell you. Everyone knew my name. It was like I'd just popped out of a limo at a red carpet premiere, New York style.
Elle, Abe and I went to the Champaign County Humane Society's Mutt Strut today, and talk about a fun time. It seems some people were mistaking me for some guy named Evan. Though they looked really familiar to me, I couldn't place `em. Unless that's some French way of saying hello, I don't know who they were talking about.
Here's me and Bailey when we first met. I (heart) Bailey.
Mutt Strut fundraiser. Sadie, Bear, Milo and the very mysterious Anonymous, all helped make Mutt Strut a success. You guys rock. We're still just $25 shy of our goal. Can you help out?
What's more? This is just Saturday! Woot! A whole other day left in the weekend!

Good job, Jackaroo!ReplyDelete
Hey, Jackaroo! I was at the Mutt Strut on Saturday, too. I get a little scared of other dogs, though, so I acted all pathetic the entire time. Mom & I saw you get your ribbon for the tail contest, though!ReplyDelete
I'm going to try to blog about the Mutt Strut tonight. Mom was "too busy" this weekend. (Her priorities are seriously messed up...)

Denver Broncos defensive end Kenny Peterson, fresh from a four-game suspension by the National Football League for violation of the league's policy on steroids and related substances, has 2 goals in mind – he wants his job back and also wants to clear his name. The Denver Broncos, probably mindful of those facts, have until Monday to decide whether to retain him or not.
Peterson has said in so many words that the thing that bugs him is the fact that he unknowingly ingested a banned dietary supplement, telling the Associated Press, "Definitely, I'm 28 years old and never drank, never smoke, never done anything. And you know, to get hit with a four-game suspension for something that unknowingly was taken, it hurts more than anything because I try to lead by example by not doing anything illegal or tampering with my body. But it wasn't done maliciously. It was a metabolism booster type thing and I thought it was OK but it wasn't. I couldn't even tell you the name of (the banned ingredient). It's some big, long name. It was some weird thing."
Peterson spent his down time working out at a facility not far from the Broncos' training complex. Whether the down time will have benefitted Peterson or not will be crucial, especially within the next few days. Also another thing to keep in mind is the awful performance of the Broncos' run defense (to date, they're allowing 181 yards a game). So I think it is safe to say that a combination of the above circumstances should factor in a final decision which I would expect to be rendered no later than Friday.

A House is Not Always A Home
The Novelty of Choosing Niche Writing
Find Your Writer's Niche
The wonderful thing about writers is that each has a very special set of characteristics. Add to this feature their ancestral history, rich in cultural traditions and the end result is a treasure trove of interesting talents in writers. How do writers find their niche? One way is to dip into an objective view of your ancestral history. Are there unusual family traits that are worth putting to use in writing style and choices of writing niches? What fascinates or captures your imagination? There's always one or more particular aspects of life that seem to lure writers to greater depths of exploration. The niche interest may be the occult, a deep cultural heritage that marks their daily lives in a profound manner or unresolved crimes that hold a writer's imagination hostage. Houses have always been my personal choice for a writing niche.
A House Is Not Always A Home
I find the structure of houses and the architectural design speak volumes of the occupants of a home. To me, the two entities are inseparable. As an example, in my first book, "Barrow House," the house that inspired the story, was one I'd seen dozens of times in a neighboring town as a child. Actually, I saw a small slivered view of the house. It resembled a typical mansion of the Gilded Age. It was two stories, a white clap board, with Victorian gingerbread along the exterior and Romanesque, white marble columns. This house was completely surrounded by a tall, black, wrought iron fence. The fencing reminded me of one I'd seen enclosing a cemetery. Inside the fencing, to add further privacy, were large Canadian Pines that hid most of the rest of the house. Barrow House is a fictional name for the house and family who lived in this mansion. If anyone lived in this mansion. For more than a dozen years, the mansion seemed isolated from the rest of the town and passersby saw barely more than a twelve inch view in entirety. To a child's imaginings, the people who might have lived in this home couldn't know they'd inspire a fictional suspense novel that included a nine-year old child murderess and the deprivation and cruelty of diminished wealth after the Crash of 1929. It was easy to see how my early childhood fascination for houses would eventually become my writing niche.
In my second novel, "The House at the End of Langdon Road," the house that inspired this suspense story line was located in my home town. This house was a complete caricature in sensibility. The land around this cottage home was clearly in contradiction to the actual size of the house. A child imagines the small cottage house being swallowed up by the immense land upon which it stood. This story line was in direct contrast to "Barrow House," where wealth was the underlying cause of misery, suffering and death. The fictional owner of the House at the End of Langdon Road was a poor, immigrant farmer with seven sons, two of whom were convicted a crime they didn't commit as young teens. This house fit into my imaginings for creating characters and events that married well with the post World War II years and the onset of the 1950s. I chose to use the same town thirty years later and even included a few of the characters from Barrow House in cameo profiles. This is a deliberate attempt to insert familiarity between writer and reader, using sequeled characters even though the story line is completely different.
The Essence of Niche Writing
The essence of niche writing is to remain true to your chosen niche. There are two very good reasons for this. The first reason is readership. By choosing a niche, writers call in a wider scope of readership by genre and then, by niche. The second reason has more to do with marketability to publishers. A well-defined niche creates a writer's persona more quickly and more memorably. To readership, the niche becomes a method of identification. Potential lovers of suspense novels may not recall the title of your book. They will remember the niche if it's unique and supported by consistency. Aside from choosing an initial niche for new writers, there's the benefit of diverting the niche from fiction to non-fiction when the literary market swings in either of those directions as a result of readership popularity. The essence of niche writing incorporates the depths of a writer's deeply embedded heritage with their ability to embue readership with a unique insight into a niche you, the author, find fascinating and captivating.

How to cook Mutton Pulao (Recipe)
Mutton Pulao مٹن پلاؤ is very popular and tasty rice dish of Pakistan and if you are learning to cook Pakistani food then you should must learn this dish.
I have my own way of making this pulao but it is really really tasty according to people including my mom. 🙂
I am going to share a step by step guide so new learners can cook this pulao easily.
- Rice (Basmati) 2 Cups
- Mutton 300g
- Onion 2 medium thinly sliced
- Tomatoes 2 Big Chopped
- Green Chilies 2
- Cinnamon 1 small stick
- Green Cardamom 2
- Cumin Seeds 1 tsp
- Black Cardamom 1
- Cloves 3
- Black Pepper Corns 6-7
- Ground Garam Masala 1 tsp
- Salt 2 tsp or to taste
- Red Chilli Powder 1/2 tsp
- Dry Coriander Powder 2 tsp
- Garlic one whole head crushed
- Oil 1/4 cup
Wash and soak rice in tap water and keep aside.
Cut onion in thin slices, chop tomatoes and crush garlic using mortar and pestle. You can also use garlic paste but there is nothing better than freshly crushed garlic. It makes the taste of pulao just perfect.
Now as I always say that if you are a fan of mutton then use a pressure cooker otherwise it takes ages for mutton to get perfectly tender. If used with care, pressure cooker makes life really easy.
Put your mutton meat in pressure cooker along with one cinnamon stick, green cardamom, black cardamom, cloves and 1 tsp of salt. Add 3 cups of water and turn on the timer when whistle starts. In Islamabad I get meat from Qureshi Meat Shop and it takes exactly 23 minutes to get perfectly tender but meat can take any time between 17 to 25 minutes to get soft so you should be really sure about the meat that you are cooking. Otherwise you can open cooker carefully after 18 minutes and check.
Now take 1/4 cup oil in a separate pan and fry onion till it turns light brown. You should keep on stirring and flipping it constantly so each piece of onion gets evenly brown.
When onion changes color, half close the pan with a lid and carefully put 1/2 cup of water in it. The lid will keep you safe from the oil.
After that add chopped tomatoes and boiled meat in it. Keep the broth aside. We'll use it later. Strain and remove whole garam masala from the broth if you want.
Now cover the lid and put it on low-medium heat so the tomatoes get soft.
When the water in tomatoes is almost dried, start frying it on medium flame and then add crushed garlic.
You should fry it for at least 5-7 minutes so it gets fully cooked and no smell of raw garlic is left.
After that add 2 tsp of coriander powder and fry some more. The oil should be completely separated from rest of the ingredients.
Now add 2 and a half cups of water (including the broth) in it and bring it to boil.
The simple rule is that if basmati rice is soaked for half or more than half of an hour then 1.25 cups of water should be used for every 1 cup of rice. As I am sharing recipe for 2 cups of rice, I will be using 2 and a half cups of water.
Now throw two whole green chilies in it for aroma, 1 tsp salt, red chilli powder, ground garam masala and cumin seeds.
When water comes to boil, drain your rice and put in the pot. Turn the stove to low-medium and place the lid like I have shared in the picture below.
Note the time, you should cook rice this way for exactly seven minutes.
After seven minutes remove the lid and stir the rice with a spoon but very gently.
Cover the pan with the lid and now it should be completely covered.
Some people use clothe or put something heavy on the lid. I never do that. I just turn the heat very low and make sure that the pan is completely covered with the lid.
Now cook the rice this way for exactly 18-20 minutes.
Yummy pulao is ready to serve. Serve it with raita and salad.

Two high-powered offenses locked horns Sept. 28 in Broomfield as Holy Family (4-1, 1-0 in conference) escaped Skyline (3-2), 47-41.
In a contest where the two offenses combined for 1,093 yards, two clutch defensive plays sealed the victory for the Tigers in front of their ruckus home crowd.
In a first half of perfect offensive execution and back-and-forth scoring for both sides, six touchdowns on six straight possessions concluded the half, putting the game at a 35-28 affair.
The feeling in the stadium was whoever forced a key turnover or had the ball last would take home this non-conference win.
Fortunately, for the Panthers, both categories fell in their favor.
After Skyline tied the game at 35 on an 11-play, 72-yard drive with 3:05 left in the third quarter, Holy Family answered back with a 71-yard drive on eight plays, capped by a 7-yard run from senior quarterback Kyle Helbig. Following the game-leading score, the Panther defense pounced.
Skyline, as it did all night, came back at the home team, driving all the way to Holy Family's 10-yard line. Three stops in the red zone later, the Falcons faced a crucial fourth down.
As sophomore quarterback Chase Silva threw to the end zone, senior Jack Alderman batted the ball away to maintain the 6-point lead with 10:06 remaining.
Three punts in a row (two for Holy Family, one for Skyline) followed before the Falcons found themselves again driving down the field, hoping to take their first lead of the night. Down six, it took seven plays to find themselves on Holy Family's 15-yard line with less than three minutes to go.
Cue the game clincher.
As Silva surveyed the field, the gunslinger fired a pass into the end zone. Waiting on the football was senior Joseph Hepp, who secured the interception and the team's fourth win of the season.
"We talked at halftime, and we knew if we got one stop we could build on it and get another," Holy Family head coach Michael Gabriel said. "The kids did exactly what I asked them to do and momentum built on our side."
The key defensive stops helped win the ballgame for Holy Family, but Helbig played big for a squad that lost its starting senior quarterback, Calahan Carter, for the season a week earlier.
Behind Helbig's 270 passing yards, 163 rushing yards and six touchdowns (four rushing, two passing), Holy Family's offense didn't miss a beat.
"First of all, you don't replace Calahan Carter. He's an amazing player, and I'm sad that he's not with us," Gabriel said. "But the kids have really rallied around him and Kyle. Calahan's injury is unfortunate, and it's kind of a battle cry for the kids now. They want to win for Cal and keep going."
Despite Holy Family's offensive success, Skyline offensively played toe-to-toe with the Panthers with 526 yards themselves. Silva's impressive stat line of 31-for-40 with 427 yards kept his team in contention all night. Senior backfield mate Jeremy Hollingsworth's 89 yards on 17 carries combined with the two outside threats of seniors Jack Wathen (13 catches for 214 yards) and Kyle West (13 catches for 142 yards) showcased the weapons Skyline has in store for the rest of their opponents this season.
Senior Matt Delgado led the Holy Family defense with 12 tackles as junior Ben Nappe and sophomore Benito Hernandez followed with eight apiece against the explosive Falcons attack.
In five games in 2018, the Panthers have tallied as many wins as they did a season ago. As the main stretch of conference play approaches, Gabriel is ready for what awaits.
"I'm excited. To me, that's a playoff-type game, and that's a team that's going to do really well in 4A," he said. "They're going to help us gain some points going into the playoffs, so that's a game we will look back on going into the postseason and league play for sure."
Holy Family travels to Denver North (4-1) Oct. 6 (time TBD) in a crucial conference game. Skyline looks to get back on track Oct. 5 at 7 p.m. at Silver Creek (1-4).

Asset Portfolio Management — Using MarketBuilder to Inform Key Decisions
Quantifying portfolio risk/return by analyzing correlations, synergies, intraportfolio competition, and common market prices
Companies build, buy, and otherwise acquire collections of assets, termed a "portfolio." Whether generators in the Florida Reliability Coordinating Council (FRCC) or gas wells in the Haynesville Shale Field, businesses invariably acquire and manage a mix of assets. As energy companies acquire and dynamically manage their asset portfolios, it is common for companies to periodically evaluate their assets in order to decide which ones to sell and which to keep; they also evaluate potential assets to acquire. The objective of this evaluation is to reduce risk and maximize earnings, i.e., referred to here as portfolio management.
The complex and extensive analysis required for portfolio management typically includes many factors for consideration, but it is essential that it include a fundamental market-based approach in order to facilitate analysis of future market behavior and prices. A fundamental market-based approach helps you to project price using inputs of key fundamental factors for which you typically have data and/or a good intuitive understanding, such as production costs and commodity availability.
Alternatively, in nonfundamental approaches, future commodity price is usually the input; future price, typically the most important factor in evaluating your portfolio, is more difficult to understand than the key fundamental factors. With projected price, you are able to determine the profitability of each asset over a forward time horizon, enabling you to make more informed decisions about your portfolio components.
MarketBuilder was designed to help companies perform fundamental market analysis and project market prices. It has many differentiating capabilities that facilitate analyzing markets globally or regionally and altering selected factors to help customers examine the combined effects of potential market changes on the market behavior and prices.
Specifically, MarketBuilder models the supply chains for the energy commodities pertinent to each of your portfolio assets. In MarketBuilder, each component of the supply chains is treated as an independent agent, competing against the others, as they do in real-world markets, helping users to analyze market fundamentals and project prices, and simulating the real market behavior under a variety of potential conditions.
MarketBuilder helps you analyze these key aspects in your portfolio optimization:
- Synergy among assets. MarketBuilder can help you understand the extent that your assets complement each other or compete with each other:
- Positive synergy (e.g., scale economies in a large-enough portfolio that reduces cost for the assets)
- Negative synergy (e.g., competition — if you put two or three assets in one place, they can overload that place and drive prices down)
- Correlation and hedging. MarketBuilder helps you analyze your portfolio correlation, enabling you to "self-hedge" through portfolio decisions rather than merely acquiring financial instruments to hedge; it helps you understand:
- Positive correlation — assets whose profitabilities move up and down together.
- Independence — assets whose profitabilities move independently, one not affecting the other
- Negative correlation — assets whose profitabilities move counter to each other. When one goes up, the other goes down, and vice versa. These can be natural portfolio hedges, much less expensive than buying financial instruments.
- Integration — across supply chains
- Vertical integration (a portfolio that extends up and down the supply chain)
- Horizontal integration (a portfolio that is very wide, invoking economies of scope)
- Economies of scale (e.g., consolidating spare parts inventory over a large number of plants)
- Risk — Return efficiency. MarketPoint uses Markowitz as a conceptual guide as shown in the figure. MarketBuilder helps you to produce the key inputs necessary for plotting each prospective portfolio component and analyzing whether it lies on the "frontier" — the lowest level of uncertainty for each given level of expected value and equivalently highest expected value for each given level of uncertainty.
Standard deviation (uncertainty)
To summarize, MarketBuilder helps you to perform portfolio management using a fundamental market-based approach and consideration of a broad list of portfolio characteristics in your analysis.

For this study year, some 70 colleges and universities nationwide have partnered with car sharing companies.
Under these agreements, the car share companies provide cars available for hourly rentals to members of the campus community.
The services will reduce the need for students to keep cars on campus and thus will alleviate parking woes, which is a welcome relief to most campuses where there is as few as one parking place for every four or five student.
Both the two largest car-sharing companies, Zipcar and Flexcar, are in on the new pilot program.
For each, the first campus pilot programs started way back in 2002, with MIT for Zipcar, and University of Washington for Flexcar.
One of the benefits for students is that while traditional car rental companies don't rent to persons under 25, Zipcar and Flexcar do so in selected campuses to students as young as 18.
Both companies do charge between $25 and $35 for an annual college membership for the service in addition to hourly fees, which range from $5 to $9 for use.

The show featured my photographs of two subjects:
- Kolmanskop, an eerie ghost town in Namibia which is being consumed by sand from nearby dunes.
- Night photography with images of the milky way with subjects ranging from abandoned cars & shacks to incredible trees and landscapes in California and Botswana.
(Including the "Photo of the Day" featured in Smithsonian on July 28th of "Nevada Impala" - printed on metal).
Thanks to all who attended the reception and stopped by to see the exhibit.
My photography of African wildlife and landscapes is part of the show "On The Brink" at the G2 Gallery in Venice, CA.
The exhibit ran through June and July at the gallery and is now on to tour through the rest of the year at museums around the

Opinion - Has the interest rate market already turned?
Velocity and momentum are important variables in financial market pricing and direction. The break-neck speed of the reductions in market interest rates over recent months has been caught-up in its own momentum that a massive over-shoot to the downside is looking more likely by the day.
It may be easy for investors and borrowers to be sucked-in to the local bank economist view that NZ interest rates need to fall another 1.00% to 2.50% to save the economy. These "celebrity" economists generally do not like being reminded of what they were telling the RBNZ to do only 12 months ago i.e. push rates higher to 9.00%??
However, the longer-term player (borrower or investor) should be examining what is happening in the US Treasury Bond market over the last few weeks as a far more accurate guide to future interest rate direction in NZ. The 10-year US T-Bond yields have increased from record lows of 2.00% in December to 3.00% today. That interest rate market is telling us that rates did go too low and that the funding of the fiscal stimulus packages will require a massive increase in supply of Government debt onto the markets. When supply increases, bond prices fall (yields increase). The US bond market may also be reflecting that some of the key lead indicators for the US and world economies (eg: the PMI) have stopped crashing down over the last month.
The RBNZ is moving a fair distance away from its sole 1% to 3% inflation mandate if it is slashing our interest rates just because the rest of the world is doing that to save their banking institutions from oblivion. Our (Australian) banks are not in the same position. The RBNZ would argue that they are slashing our interest rates to record and unprecedented historical low levels because the global economy is tanking and New Zealand economy will stay in recession longer.
The risks around that view are considerable in my view, but right now the market is dismissing them. Or are they? In the last two trading days market swap interest rates have increased by 20 to 30 basis points, up from their record lows. It may be a brave person that calls last week as the bottom in our interest rate collapse, but as time moves on that bottom may become more and more evident.
Wholesale and retail Investors are flocking to the multitude of corporate bonds now on offer in the marketplace. Their desire for 6% and 7% returns on corporate risk instead of 3% and 4% returns on Government guaranteed bank risk is very telling. Borrowers are fixing to the maximum as well through the swaps market - that is, the market traffic is all one way from here in my view – rising interest rates, not further reductions.
I find it hard to see what the next big negative for the NZ economy will be from here. Export commodity prices are stabilising and the fiscal/monetary stimulus in 2009 is huge. We will not have the massive jobs lay-offs in 2009 that other economies are experiencing. Several of our productive industries (manufacturing, fishing, forestry) went through that downsizing in 2006/2007 as a result of the inappropriately tight monetary policy at the time.
Our unemployment rates will rise from 4.6% to 7.5%, but the impact on the economy will not be as negative as many other countries. Forecasters looking at employment trends in NZ for some guide on future GDP growth are looking at the wrong indicator. Employment trends always lag the economy by 12 months. GDP growth will return to positive well ahead of employment improving. The NZ economy is driven by export commodity prices and most of those are still above long-term average prices, despite the rapid plunge in some prices over the last 9 months. Let's hope the RBNZ focus on this in their early March MPS report, rather than just extrapolating the global recession directly into the NZ economy.

Blue chip stocks are among the worst retirement investments you can make.
There are several blue-chip stocks that will actually cost you thousands of dollars each year. We'll discuss three in a moment.
Sure, the financial media might lionize these stocks. But blue chips are simply big companies. When the term first came into being, it was simply an homage to the blue poker chip – at the time, the most valuable chip on the table. Before purples, oranges and grays began to grace the baize.
However, now the term comes with a boat load of perks – the simple assignment of the term "blue chip" is practically a buy recommendation.…

I'm so tired. And stressed. And….argh! It was in the 90s today. The AC in this house has stopped working. Contacted the landlord. Waiting to hear something. Several of my meds and my conditions make me more sensitive to heat. Yeah, I know that I wanted to be back in AZ. Overall, the dry, warm climate is pretty good for me. But as with anywhere, there are drawbacks. Several of my friends were snowed in last week, frex.
This would be easier if I were not also on my period. My cycles are getting shorter and my periods heavier. I'm fearful that I'll be back to anemia land like I was three years ago when I ended up in the hospital getting blood transfusions.
Plus expending the energy to deal with service people (very nice, professional folks but still takes energy).
Also, strange rash. And my hands hurt. Plus, my partner is going out of the country for a week!


text: The Bible says that the thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. We all know who the thief is. He is Satan. He has been trying to steal from God's people since the beginning. We are now seeing his relentless attack on the next generation. One of the devil's strategies is to convince kids that they are worthless and not important. Many kids are unaware of their value and worth. We know that kids are important by what we see in scripture. God said that He knows how many hairs we have and in Psalms we see that God knew us before we were ever born. And in Mathew 19:14 we see that Jesus blessed the children and said that the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these. The fact is God loves kids and they need to know that they are special to Him. In this 6 week series kids will learn they are a member of God's Special Forces Team. They will find out that they have been chosen by God for a very special mission. They will also learn that in order to follow God's plan for them, they need to follow his instructions, given to them in the Bible.

My annual leave allowance required me to work today before starting my Birthday/Christmas holiday, which will run through until New Year's Day. I therefore had a working week exactly one day in length … I am pretty sure I can manage to make my way through this one without too much trouble.
I managed to make it in to the office just before nine and wandered in to a room that could house upward of fifty people. Today the occupants could be counted on the fingers of one hand. I completed my expenses and then scratched around for something to occupy me … I found nothing so nipped out to visit a couple of local supermarkets in search of a few essentials. One of these was a large gammon joint that is destined to become a honey roast ham. Unfortunately I failed to locate the perfect chunk of pork and returned to the office realising that I would need to visit a third supermarket at some point in the day.
I spent the remainder of the morning chatting to colleagues before making a discreet departure at midday. I then raced around Tesco and finally found a decent gammon joint to be boiled, skinned, studded with cloves, basted with honey and roasted at some point over the next couple of days.
Back at home I was delighted to find that my Gaggia had arrived and it was nice to see TP and 30% too. We lunched and then I set up the laptop in the study and sat in front of it until I decided that no-one was particularly interested in whether I was there or not.
The evening saw a further visit to the hospital with 30%. On this occasion it was a pre-planned visit to see her Consultant. He reported that her histology results were good and made a few tweaks to the treatment plan for her incision to ensure her recovery progresses at the best possible rate.
We headed home greatly encouraged by the consultation and delighted by the histology results. The evening was spent on the sofa as we are likely to be doing for the next few weeks while 30%'s abdomen knits itself back together.

Was Meriwether Lewis murdered?
The following article by Abigail Tucker originally appeared on Smithsonian.com on Oct. 8, 2009:
Captain Meriwether Lewis—William Clark's expedition partner on the Corps of Discovery's historic trek to the Pacific, Thomas Jefferson's confidante, governor of the Upper Louisiana Territory and all-around American hero—was only 35 when he died of gunshot wounds sustained along a perilous Tennessee trail called Natchez Trace. A broken column, symbol of a life cut short, marks his grave.
But exactly what transpired at a remote inn 200 years ago this Saturday? Most historians agree that he committed suicide; others are convinced he was murdered. Now Lewis's descendants and some scholars are campaigning to exhume his body, which is buried on national parkland not far from Hohenwald, Tenn.
"This controversy has existed since his death," says Tom McSwain, Lewis's great-great-great-great nephew who helped start a Web site, "Solve the Mystery," that lays out family members' point of view. "When there's so much uncertainty and doubt, we must have more evidence. History is about finding the truth," he adds. The National Park Service is currently reviewing the exhumation request.
The intrigue surrounding the famous explorer's untimely death has spawned a cottage industry of books and articles, with experts from a variety of fields, including forensics and mental health, weighing in. Scholars have reconstructed lunar cycles to prove that the innkeeper's wife couldn't have seen what she said she saw that moonless night. Black powder pistols have been test-fired, forgeries claimed and mitochondrial DNA extracted from living relatives. Yet even now, precious little is known about the events of October 10, 1809, after Lewis – armed with several pistols, a rifle and a tomahawk – stopped at a log cabin lodging house known as Grinder's Stand.

Have you noticed how easy it is to focus on the difficulties of life?
This hit home today.
Once again.
I began focusing on the present uncertainties that are currently in my life.
Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal. ~ Henry Ford
I am certain that Satan spends his time trying to find ways to keep our eyes on ANYTHING but our Goal – God.
Maybe it is the uncertainty of the future.
Perhaps it is something someone said.
The growing list of things to do.
Worries and anxieties over our children, health of our parents, bills, what's for supper, what should I wear, fears, pain, hurts…..
These things are real.
Very much a part of our lives.
Then I read this –
A river is victoriously persistent, it overcomes all barriers….You can see God using some lives, but into your life an obstacle has come and you do not seem to be of any use. Keep paying attention to the Source, and God will either take you around the obstacle or remove it. The river of the Spirit of God overcomes all obstacles. Never get your eyes on the obstacle or on the difficulty…Never allow anything to come between yourself and Jesus Christ, no emotion, no experience; nothing must keep you from the One great Sovereign Source. ~ Oswald Chambers
What does this look like in my day to day life?
I am convinced if I had a sure-fire way to keep my eyes on my goal – God, things unseen, my relationship with Him – I could package it up and make millions! (if I were the entrepreneur type).
All I have are the ways of those that have gone before, who struggled with the same.
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made know to God; and the peace which surpasses all understanding, will guard your heart and minds through Christ Jesus. ~ Phil. 4:6,7
But what things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. But indeed I also count all things loss for the excellence of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and count them as rubbish, that I amy gain Christ. ~ Phil. 3:7,8
- Prayer
- Thanksgiving
- Putting Christ above all the world has to offer
Knowing this and implementing are two different things. I should know…I fail all the time (just ask my family).
But when I have succeeded in keeping my eye on what really matters, the obstacles become irrelevant or really, I see them for what they are –
My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. ~ James 1:2-4.
God's way to reach my GOAL!

Fairfield officials kick off Zika awareness initiative
Fairfield health officials say they are kicking off a new initiative to raise awareness about the Zika virus.
They are handing out reading materials with tips on how people can prevent becoming victims with the help of the Fairfield Easton Medical Reserve Corps and the Fairfield Community Emergency Response Team.
One tip states that if you're going to be outside, wear mosquito repellant and long sleeve shirts and pants. Another tip is to eliminate breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Officials say any item or area that has standing water can be a mosquito breeding area.
Officials say so far, 14 people in Connecticut have tested positive for the mosquito-borne disease, which can cause fever, rash and serious birth defects.
They say though a lot of people may already be familiar with the tips, there is a lot more urgency with the spread of the Zika virus.

Bhubaneswar: The State Election Commission on Tuesday ordered government for initiating crime branch probe into pre panchayat poll violence at Tarabha which led to death of a youth.
Asking the government to deploy paramilitary forces in the area if necessary to avoid tension, the commission noted that it is a serious issue and demands high level probe.
Speaking to media persons here today, commission secretary Rabindranath Sahu said it is aware of poll violence situation in Tarabha and is taking all possible measures in consultation with the district collector and SP.
Meanwhile the main accused Byomkesh Biswal, an OSAP personnel has been taken on a two day remand for interrogation into the alleged murder of Salman Rout a BJP activist during a pre poll violence in Tarabha Gram Panchayat of Dhenkanal on Friday. He was arrested on Saturday.
The district police have also lodged case against 34 other villagers for taking law into their hands.
Notably, Rout was allegedly shot at by Biswal during pre poll violence on Friday night which triggered tension in the area leading the police to impose prohibitory section 144 and deploy forces to prevent any untoward incidence since then.
As per police sources the incident was a fallout of unrest between local BJD and BJP on the backdrop of panchayat elections. Also Byomkesh who happens to be an activist of BJD had long term enmity against Rout an active worker of BJP. But the reasons for the alleged murder are still shrouded in mystery.

Legal Eagle : A war against cybercrimes
By no stretch of the imagination could any one believe that those who conceptualised and developed the computer system could imagine it becoming a very potent weapon that could kill millions and cause massive destruction.
By way of background, the word 'computer' was first used in 1613 to describe a human who performed extraordinary calculations or computations. Charles Babbage, who conceptualised what is regarded as the first computer in 1822, must be spinning in his grave to know that an invention he pioneered and which was continued by Konrad Zuse and Alan Turning in 1936, Tommy Flowers in 1943, Atanasoff and Berry and, thereafter, Eckert and Mauchly in the mid-1940s, to 1975 when Ed Roberts introduced the first personal computer, has been wreaking so much havoc.
Now, cybercrime is here and the world is bracing to deal with cyberwarfare.
The Cybercrimes Act, 2010, [hereinafter called 'the Act'], is an Act "to provide criminal sanctions for the misuse of computer system or data and the abuse of electronic means of completing transactions and to facilitate the investigation and prosecution of cybercrimes".
Notwithstanding the promulgation of the Act in 2010, two years later, the Jamaican Government reported a 14 per cent increase in cybercrimes.
Under the Act, computer is defined as any device or group of related devices, which, when programmed, performs automatic processing of data and includes data-storage facility, among other things.
Offences under the Act include, but are not limited to unauthorised access to computer or data, accessing a computer with intention to commit or facilitate the commission of a crime, unauthorised modification of computer program or data, unauthorised interception of computer function or service, unauthorised obstruction of operation of computer, unlawful making available devices or data for commission of offence, offences relating to a protected computer and offences by bodies corporate. If found guilty, the penalty for the offences mentioned above are usually a fine of up to $2,000,000 and/or imprisonment up to five years.
Cyberwarfare is generally actions between countries. It involves the use and targeting of computers and networks. It may involve both offensive and defensive operations pertaining to the threat of cyber-attacks, espionage and sabotage. For instance, espionage could lead to hacking and public disclosure of national security details and trade secrets, among other things.
Sabotage is likely to involve the disruptions of computers and satellite systems that are likely to affect electricity power grid and water supplies, and air, ground and rail transportation. In modern societies and large cities, these disruptions could lead to mayhem, death and public disorder.
Computer warfare is evolving almost at the speed of light. Nation states are now busily establishing cyber command centres that can train personnel to monitor cyberspace and use cyber weapons to defend their interest in cyberspace or attack when necessary.
Fast-forward 100 years, maybe there will be a world where people in every household will have training in cybercrimes and cyberwarfare to use defensive and offensive tools, in the same way we use a firearms in the world today, but for now, as "I think to myself ... bright blessed day ... dark sacred night ... what a wonderful world." Louis Armstrong.

Daf Yomi Kesubos 9
King David watched as the beautiful Bathsheba went out to bathe on the rooftop of the adjacent building. In a fit of burning passion, he found himself inexplicably drawn to her. Conspiring to be with her, he sent her husband Uriah out to the frontlines of the battlefield and cohabited with her. Following Uriah's death on the battlefield, David married Bathsheba.
The prophet Nathan subsequently appeared before King David and chastised him for his ill-conceived actions. As punishment for his behaviour, he and Bathsheba would lose a child. And indeed no sooner was the baby born than he died.
The Gemara asks: Why was Bathsheba not forbidden to marry David?
Rashi explains: A woman who has an affair is subsequently forbidden to both her husband and her lover.
Rabbi Shmuel bar Nachmani quoted Rabbi Jonathan: Whoever would go out to war in David's army would write a gett (bill of divorce) to his wife.
Rabbeinu Tam explains: The gett would take effect immediately just in case the husband did not come back from the war. This way, the wife would be freed from the uncertainty of being an agunah – chained woman, who cannot remarry until she definitely knows her husband is dead.
No doubt many women were spared from the terrible plight of spending their lives chained to their missing husbands. Nevertheless, in David's case, this injunction had unfortunate consequences. David capitalized on the fact that Uriah had divorced his wife and utilized the opportunity to take her unto him. And presumably theirs wasn't the only marriage negatively impacted by the injunction.
There is no indication as to how long this injunction remained in effect. Certainly, Israeli soldiers who go out to war today don't divorce their wives, thank G-d. After all, why would you set out assuming the worst outcome? Instead, soldiers should be promising their wives the world before setting off, knowing that, with G-d's help, they will be home soon.
When you set out with the assumption that things will turn out bad, you are opening yourself up to negative energy and G-d forbid, you can set in motion a self-fulfilling prophecy. Instead of assuming the worst, switch those negative thoughts to positive thoughts! And you will open yourself up to a purely positive flow of Divine energy!
Even when things seem bleak, tell yourself: I know that according the laws of nature, things may appear problematic. But G-d works in the supernatural! You may have been laid off from work, but the Almighty can grant you a job earning twice as much in the blink of an eye. You may have received a bad medical report, but only the Almighty holds the keys to good health and bad health. Keep thinking positively and the Divine light will flow into your life and overpower the natural order!
A popular Yiddish adage says, "Tracht gut, vet zayn gut!" – think positively and it will be positive! You have the ability to determine the ultimate outcome by controlling whether to allow yourself to be controlled by the natural order or to draw down supernatural energy into your life. May you merit a life filled with positivity and may you always remain in control as the Divine energy emanates throughout!

IMO we have a date with 2180 on the S&P 500 very very soon -- within a week. That's what a wave 3 point-of-recognition panic sell means for us here. The Fed needs to play catch-up on their balance sheet plans in what remains of February.
It also means we collapse back to the 1000 level before the All-Star Game. Don't worry, they'll announce a significant policy shift at the September Fed meeting that will bring back the animal spirits once again.

Symbol Comfortec Mattresses
Do you want a very comfortable memory foam bed that will not break down in less than a year, but aren't ready to shell out a few thousand dollars for a luxury mattress set? If so, you are not alone. Many consumers find themselves in this exact position today, as many people simply have less money on hand to spend today. So, where do most of these value hunters turn? The Symbol Comfortec mattress is at the top of their list, and for very good reason.
With a Symbol Comfortec foam mattress you receive some of the best materials available on the mattress market today, but at a very affordable price. Symbol manages to keep their prices quite low just by producing many of their own parts, including coils and wooden frames. By making these parts themselves rather than buying them from someone else, they are able to ensure the quality of every aspect of their mattresses, while slashing prices for the consumer. While consumers appreciate the effort, it is done to make the manufacturer more competitive in the market.
The Symbol Comfortec pillow top mattress includes seven inches of high quality foam overall. One layer is latex, and the others are various forms of foam, including the very popular visco-memory foam. Omalon foam and sup soft quilting are used on the pillow top to create an extremely soft bed that delivers a very luxurious, soft sleeping surface.
For support, the Comfortec Collection Pillow Top mattress includes a two inch layer of support foam and well over 800 coils are encased in foam as well. These bottom layers work well with the layered foams to deliver enough support to balance out the conforming comfort of the top sleeping surface. The result is a mattress that both supports and comforts night after night.
The Comfortec includes more layers of foam than many mattresses that sell at much higher prices. While the lower prices are very attractive, they are dropping even lower through many reputable online retailers right now. While many people do not have much money to shop with, retailers are slashing prices to help them out. Take advantage of this for even more value on your next bed.
The best feature of the Symbol Comfortec mattress is the layered foam, especially since it includes latex as well as visco-memory foam. These are two of the best materials in the mattress market right now, and not every mattress includes both.
Symbol Comfort Innovations Mattress
At first glance, the Symbol Comfort Innovations mattress may seem like an excellent deal for the low price tag. It is a more basic innerspring mattress, but the manufacturer claims it has been reinvented as...

Universal Diary app is a bit like an old-school Filofax that people used to keep everything in the 1980s. It is a journal, budget book, to do list, photo album, alarm clock and sketch book all in one, with every entry (which the app calls marks) neatly ordered according to date and easily accessible.
For each day you can rate the day with a smiley face, take a photo that encapsulates your day, write an entry, add a free-hand drawing and choose a shape.
Marking the day by a circle, square or star could be used, for instance, by a chronic pain sufferer to indicate days when the symptoms are bad. Then, at a glance, you could see how many days a month you were in pain and if there is a pattern to it. Or you could use the shapes to indicate days you or your partner worked FIFO, or nights you slept well or days you stuck to your diet or exercised etc.
You can also use the app to keep track of your finances each day and set a reminder, complete with alarm, for a task to do.
One feature I particularly like is a spot to record your good ideas - great for those sparks of inspiration you get at 3am.
You can also put a hashtag before an entry to "tag" it so that you can easily find it later or associate it with similar entries.
The app is free in the Google Play and iTunes stores, but if you upgrade to the ad-free full version for a few dollars, you get the added extras of: being able to set a password to keep all your info safe; data backup and restore (using Google Drive or an SD card) in case you change or reset your device; the ability to change various features like the background appearance and the currency; and you can set the app to remind you to make your "marks".
Universal Diary is highly rated and is a great way to keep track of your private thoughts, ideas, tasks, photos and finances.
Use it as a dream or travel journal, food diary and mood tracker too!•

As long as there's no ice outside, we're calling it summer. That's what we've decided at my day job. And it fits, too, in a strange logical way. Although September is coming up fast, in Sweden the summer feels wonderfully long because of the amount of time everyone gets to enjoy it. Many who live here take advantage of that time. Expats return home to various countries, or perhaps visit a popular vacation spot. Swedes almost always travel to a warm sunny place. After a while, Stockholm begins to feel deserted. It's not uncommon to walk past darkened storefronts and see the 'summer notice' posted on the door, and, for once, you're able to find parking spaces. Read more
Revision Tip: Write it Twice. Or Three Times. Or Ten.
I once saw a video by Anthony Marra, author of A Constellation of Vital Phenomena, where among other things he talked about his revision process and how he typed his story over and over. That moment was special for me. Angels didn't sing or anything, but it was the first time I had ever run across another author who revised the same way I did.
When I came to the end of my Ashborne drafts, I printed them out. Then I proceeded to type them in again–line by line. I worked on the language a little more. saw the story in a new light. I encountered each page and each scene as if I were discovering it anew day by day. Read more
Project Update
As some of you know I'm a member of the Stockholm Writers Group, a select group of writers founded over twenty years ago to provide feedback, encourage each other, and support each other with their writing goals. We meet on a regular basis and offer feedback to those who've submitted their work. In addition, we pair up with a writing buddy. Some terms we switch buddies, some terms we keep the buddies we have. At the moment, my buddy is a wonderful writer named Rebecca, and this past week when we met, the conversation turned to blogs.
We've decided to both revisit our blogs with a concentrated focus. She's studying craft books and enjoys the exercises these books provide. She's decided to focus her blog on those exercises, or insights she's gained from the process. Read more
World Book Day 2017
Sunday, April 23, 2017 is World Book Day!
Most of the holidays I see advertised are always 'National'. National Friendship Day, National Novel Reading Day, or National I like the Color Yellow Day. Sometimes it bothers me, this 'National' business, because I want to point out there's an entire world out there. Why can't we have more International days? But then I decide it's all good in the end anyway, because I can't keep up with all the different holidays. Read more
To Boldly Go . . .
Maybe I'm giving away my age here, not that it's a secret, but I remember these words growing up, 'To boldly go where no man has gone before.' Anyone else remember those? The words made famous by Star Trek, a sci-fi television show I didn't watch, but knew all about because some of the kids I hung out with talked about it.
I'm not sure why I never really watched it growing up. For one thing, there were long periods of time where we didn't have a television. But I think it had more to do with in my head there were Star Trek people and there were Star Wars people, and I was definitely a Star Wars person. Is that a thing? This delineation between the Wars and the Trek? Or did I just imagine it all those years? Read more

We've Moved!
As some of you may have seen on my Instagram or Facebook posts, we've moved! I'm so excited. And a little tired. Okay, maybe more than a little tired. But I'm still mostly excited!
We had, in my eyes anyway, a tiny apartment. Our son was basically sleeping in what was labeled as a closet on the floor plan, which worked well when he was a baby. But that was six years ago. In short, we needed a bigger place. My husband, who is amazing at finding things, found us one. Read more
I've managed to stay out of the political chaos that surrounds my home country so far and I'm hoping to avoid the aftermath as well. Honestly, no matter which side of the political fence you stand on, all the emotional sensationalism that's out there creates a reaction and it's that reaction I can do without. The increased heart rate. The anger. The frustration about how the other side can be so (insert word of choice here). So I've avoided it. Because I have better things to spend my emotional energy on. I have a family and two jobs and a dream and hobbies and a million other things I can be investing in. Read more
My Author Mission Statement
I was in a mom situation about a week or two ago and ended up defending my children during a play date. Later, I had conflicting emotions about the episode. Sadness. Anger. Frustration. Guilt. Eventually, my husband came to me and said I should never feel guilty for being the champion our children need at times. Shortly before this play date, I ran across an article, or maybe it was just a paragraph or two in a book, about mission statements. I think the idea was successful people lived by mission statements and these feelings prompted me to think about creating a mission statement for myself. I spent two days writing down what I believed and my mission as a mom, a wife, a sister, and a friend. Defending my children, even in difficult situations or against friends, was in there. When I finished, I felt much better. Read more
Setting Up Writing Tasks With Habitica
Have you heard of this app? Habitica? I'm in love with it. So here's the deal. You create a little guy or gal and then go ahead and set up tasks, to-do lists, or even habits. They could be writing related goals, like 'Write one chapter' or 'Write 1000 words daily', or something a little more simple like 'Take the stairs' or a habit like 'Drink Water'.
Whenever you mark off the tasks or to-do items as completed, you get experience points. Eventually you can even have pets. Just a few days ago I hatched my first Skeleton Flying Pig!

Admiral Gardner 10 Cash Coin
Lost off the British Coast for 175 Years, This 10 Cash Coin Can Finally Tell Its Tales!
On January 24th, 1809, three ships owned by the East India Company set sail from London. The three ships, including the Admiral Gardner, sank in a storm barely 80 miles out from London. The Admiral Gardner sat at the bottom of the sea until she was rediscovered and gave up her cargo of 10 Cash coins in 1984.
Now, you can own one of these 10 Cash bronze coins, struck for the East India Company. Each is certified as genuine by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) and encapsulated in an acrylic holder for protection, displayed in a clear box with a story card and certificate of authenticity.
The coin bears the East India Company's iconic logo on the obverse. It was one of the first coins to be minted by the steam press process and was meant to fuel trade in India, which the company ruled at the time. However, the coin could only be used for goods and services if it actually got there. Unfortunately, on one fateful night, it only traveled as far as the West British coastline.
This is one of the most famous shipwrecks in history, and securing this certified example of the 10 Cash East India coin will make a worthy addition to any coin collection. Order yours today!

Once we have proven beyond any doubt that drugs do not make life better, we start in the positive side of our program which is how it can be. What can one do right now, today, to improve not only one's own life but others as well. If one were for example to treat the lady at a shopping centre with respect and make her feel good about herself, the chances are that she will uplift the following customer and so it spreads. This is how simple actions can make a difference. With more people doing this a significant different can be made with minimal effort. These are the kinds of values we discuss with them.
As part of this section of the program we show a short DVD of the same title which shows 21 values in action. It has been made in such a way that it makes one want to live like that. You can see two short clips below:

WARREN, Minn. -- A 27-year-old northwest Minnesota man has been accused of forcing a woman to have sex with him last month.
Justen James Lawrence Ekholm, 27, of Alvarado, which is about 12 miles north of Grand Forks along the North Dakota border, appeared Tuesday in Marshall County District Court on a third-degree felony count of criminal sexual conduct, a crime that carries a maximum punishment of 15 years in prison.
The accuser told officers Ekholm harassed her June 5 to have sex with him, but she said "no" multiple times while she was at his home, according to court documents. He tried to bribe her to have sex, but she refused, court documents state.
Ekholm continued to beg for sex, saying he would pay to get the woman's nails done if she complied, court documents said. He kept her up until 3 a.m., and he kept touching her despite her efforts to move his hand away from her body, according to court documents.
The defendant eventually forced the woman to have sex without protection, even though the woman continued to say "no" during the incident, according to court documents.

It's quite possible Chelsea Vandiver is one of the most knowledgeable people we could ask about what it takes to get a gig at Portland-based Ziba. An employee at the design agency for almost 20 years, Vandiver has worked her way up to the very top and been the Executive Managing Director at Ziba for about four years. Ziba is a design consultancy that over the years has worked with the likes of GE, Adidas, Coca-Cola, Nike, Wacom, Philips, Johnson & Johnson and so much more; it can easily be said its own of the most respected design consultancies in the entire country, and Vandiver has certainly had no small hand in its success. Recently, the Managing Director took a little time to answer some of our burning questions about what she looks for in job candidates and some important lessons she's learned over the years.
What do you look for when hiring a designer?
Of course we look for talent and a solid portfolio, but that is just the first pass. When we interview we are looking for designers with a potential for growth who believe that their best work is still in front of them. Passion, Curiosity, Tenacity, and the ability to leverage the collective perspectives of their teammates are the critical indicators of potential. I'm also always looking to be surprised or challenged, to see an approach or solution I hadn't thought about. Our greatest hires not only grow at Ziba, but contribute their unique perspective to grow our practice as a whole.
Is there a particular "tell" that signals a good or bad fit?
At Ziba, we are driven by intention. During an interview, when looking at a portfolio, I will often ask the question, what was the problem that you were trying to solve and how did your design deliver on it? If the designer can't articulate this, it gives me caution.
What is your best interview "horror story"?
One that comes to mind was a senior soft-goods designer who I was looking forward to interviewing because his online portfolio and experience was impressive. When he arrived for his interview, he brought in a gym bag, full of the clothes that he had designed. They were wrinkled, well-worn and judging by the strong odor in the room, in need of a good wash. He was a talented designer, but I just couldn't get past his lack of respect for his work.
What is the single most valuable piece of advice you could give to those on the hunt?
The most valuable thing to remember is that you only have to land one job. Don't treat it like a mass production job hunt. Be selective, focus on where you want to work and then do your research, get to know the firm inside and out. Pitch the person interviewing you on why you believe in the company and what makes you a unique fit.
Do you have any specific advice for recent graduates, or people just starting straight out from school?
Remember that the first job out of school is an extension of your education. Don't go for comfort. Work for people you respect and take a job that will challenge you and expect the most out of you. Think of it as an investment. It's more important to build a solid foundation for your career than to be well pampered with pay and perks —that will come later.
Regarding creative employment, what do you know now that you wished you knew then?
What I didn't realize was how short an actual design career really can be before you move into management or a career change. You may only have a decade of hands-on making. Compare your design career to being an athlete. You may age out. Show up every day. Embrace the honor to be invited to the table to make something better in the world. Make every project count.
