Bergman's Muses: Aesthetic Versatility in Film, Theatre, Television, and Radio
McFarland, Jan 1, 2003 - Biography & Autobiography - 265 pages
Bergman is a most versatile director who has devoted himself to several muses in a variety of media. Apart from being a writer of plays and screenplays, he has over the past fifty years directed about a hundred stage performances, fifty films, and many works for radio and television. During this time, all the production equipment used have undergone significant changes (allowing, just for instance, a more varied and subtle use of light and sound). But by his own admission, Bergman's texts have often lacked a clear orientation toward a specific medium.
This book focuses on Bergman's way of tackling the problems inherent in each art form he has dealt with, giving a penetrating picture of his craftsmanship and the intimate relationship between his work on stage and in film, as well as the possibilities and limitations of the various forms. With the varied media at his disposal, Bergman is internationally the most versatile author-cum-director presently at work, well aware of what each medium can and cannot do and, most importantly, eager to test its borders. The book addresses itself not only to Bergman fans but also to all those interested in the aesthetic problems related to different presentational forms.

Optimizing Pay-Per-Click Marketing
"Pay-Per-Click is a worldwide advertising venue. It offers extremely powerful marketing potential -- people just have to know how to use it correctly. That's where we come in.�
On Pay-Per-Click Marketing
While there is little doubt about the extensive possibilities that
pay-per-click (PPC) marketing offers businesses, many traditional
advertising agencies have been reluctant to use it with clients. This
is because most agencies lack the expertise it takes to set up and
manage such complex campaigns.
In order for agencies to capitalize on the popularity of this
advertising segment it's imperative that they learn everything they can
about pay-per-click.
The tremendous growth in pay-per-click marketing in recent years has
brought with it many misconceptions behind its use, says Alteract
Marketing's Mary O'Brien. Because of its relatively easy set-up
procedure -- in many cases as simple as signing up with a
well-trafficked search engine -- amateur efforts abound, creating the
opinion that little-to-no background knowledge is needed to develop a
highly successful marketing campaign. Unfortunately for many
disgruntled advertisers, the opposite holds true.
"Pay-per-click marketing is just like anything else in the business
world -- you need to have a fairly good understanding of what you're
doing to maximize return on investment," says O'Brien. "The more you
know about pay-per-click advertising, the more money it will make you.
The more you don't know about it, the more it will cost you."
As a result of such misconceptions, many businesses have turned to
educational seminars and classes to maximize pay-per-click potential.
Alteract Marketing, for example, offers several two-day fully
customizable seminars (http://ppcsummit.com) designed to cover PPC
techniques and strategies. O'Brien says the seminars are held in
several cities in the USA and London to cover PPC's international

Adopting a Machine
As part of trying to run a not-for-profit charitable organization, the Personal Computer Museum has created a new program that allows you to do adopt a machine. Essentially, you will be contributing to the "care and feeding" of this machine. Each computer consumes electricity and/or requires storage space which all cost money. By contributing, you are helping to pay for these costs and keep our programs active. Currently, our adoption program is only $10 per year, per machine.

FreeBSD Kernel Critical Update: arc4random predictable sequence vulnerabilitylast updated in Categories FreeBSD, Security, Security Alert
FreeBSD today released a core (kernel) patched to plug "arc4random predictable sequence vulnerability" security hole in its operating systems version 6.x and 7.x stable release. When the arc4random random number generator is initialized, there may be inadequate entropy to meet the needs of kernel systems which rely on arc4random; and it may take up to 5 minutes before arc4random is reseeded with secure entropy from the Yarrow random number generator. All security-related kernel subsystems that rely on a quality random number generator are subject to a wide range of possible attacks. This update has been rated as having important security impact.

Choose the right RAID level for DBMS
Use these guidelines to decide what RAID level you should use for different components of an Oracle installation on Windows.
Because of their size and complexity, data base management system (DBMS) installations can frequently benefit from using different RAID levels to support various parts of the system.
Oracle Corp. recommends using the following RAID levels for different components of an Oracle 9 or 10 installation:
- Operating system -- RAID 1.
Oracle suggests using RAID 1 (mirroring) for the disk holding the operating system and Oracle binary files. In the event of failure, it's much easier to restore the OS and binaries than to rebuild the volume using something like RAID 5. This cuts down the time necessary to restore the system.
- Redo log files -- RAID 1 or RAID 10.
These files are sequential rather than random, so RAID 1 or RAID 10 (striping and mirroring) provide better performance than RAID 5 (striping with distributed parity). These files are also small enough that the higher cost of RAID 10 isn't a major factor.
- Data files -- RAID 5 or RAID 10.
The key here is a combination of cost and ratio of reads to writes. RAID 5 is significantly less expensive than RAID 10, but because of the differences in write performance, RAID 5 extracts a performance penalty. Oracle recommends using RAID 10 if fewer than 90% of the I/O operations are reads. If more than 90% of the operations are reads, then RAID 5 is an acceptable option. Of course, because of the cost penalty associated with RAID 10 (the need for twice the disk capacity as the amount of data storage), some installations will go with RAID 5 for cost reasons and accept the performance hit.
- Archive log files -- RAID 10 or RAID
5. Here again, RAID 10 will give better performance, but the penalty associated with RAID 5 in writing and rebuilding a failed drive may be slight enough that RAID 5 is acceptable.
Installing Oracle databases on Windows systems is discussed in a joint white paper from Oracle, Microsoft and Dell Inc., "Deployment Guide: Oracle on Microsoft Windows and Dell PowerEdge Servers," which is available on Dell's Web site (www.Dell.com). As the title implies, the paper is specific to Dell servers, but the information is generally useful to anyone installing Oracle on Windows.

Occasionally, we hear from people who believe that liberal media bias isn't really that big of an issue because most people don't really trust reporters to tell the truth. While public trust in the media is at an all-time low, that hardly means they lack the power to shape opinion.
A perfect case in point is the notion popularized by environmental alarmist Al Gore that the Earth is experiencing more severe weather events supposedly caused by "climate change." Like his earlier debunked claims that global temperatures were increasing, this statement is also false. But many people are simply unaware of the facts.
That is understandable given that most people are not interested in keeping tallies of the number of hurricanes and tornadoes. Being uninformed about the facts, they are easily susceptible to having their opinion influenced by the media's love of disaster coverage and also of extremists like Gore making false claims about severe weather phenomena.
One such person who appears to have been influenced in this way is Los Angeles Times reporter Stacey Lessca. Fortunately for her, yesterday she received some much-needed education during an interview with a scientist working for the National Severe Storms Laboratory. After discussing some of the particulars of the recent tornado that struck Moore, Oklahoma, Lessca shifted her questioning toward environmental orthodoxy (to watch, fast-forward to the 11:20 mark), asking research scientist Robin Tanamachi if there really were more tornadoes happening thanks to "climate change:"
"It seems like there's been more severe weather, it seems, it just feels like hurricanes are getting worse. Hurricane Sandy ravaged the East Coast. This tornado now has killed 24 people in the town of Moore. Do you think that more severe storms are becoming the norm, and do you think that they are directly related to climate change?"
Tanamachi answered that this was not the case whatsoever and that people who thought otherwise were likely being influenced by the media's continual reporting on weather events:
Well the statistics don't bear that assertion out. What we're finding is that people's perception is that severe weather has increased. That perception is largely based on media presentation and that an event like the Moore tornado is now broadcast worldwide within moments of its occurence. And so it can seem more local to people than it is.
But as far as the number of tornadoes, we haven't been able to discern an increasing trend. As far as the number of hurricanes, we haven't been able to discern a really solid increasing trend with that. So it's just a matter of people being aware of those events when they occur and being aware of them almost immediately after they happen.
This is not the only issue where the media have influenced the public into believing something that is false. As Geoffrey Dickens noted earlier this month, a poll conducted by the Pew Research Center found that only 12 percent of Americans were aware that gun violence has decreased even though the drop has been quite significant. By contrast, a majority, 56 percent, believed incorrectly that gun violence had increased. This misperception was almost certainly created by the press which has been feverish in its coverage of mass shootings and in its advocacy for anti-gun laws.
Side note: The idea that human wickedness has some sort of effect on climate has long been a staple of some religious thought and it is yet another way in which modern environmentalism is actually similar to a religion. Both Al Gore and your garden-variety End Times lunatic believe that humans are being punished for their sins with more extreme weather events like hurricanes and tornadoes. It is sad reflection on modern society that the former is on his way to becoming a billionaire while only the latter is dismissed as a crank.

Growing up in Indonesia, summers were spent back in Manila and that meant one thing for me: halo-halo. My grandparents' house was very near SM City North EDSA, which was the bomb back then in the early 80s, it being the first SM Supermall.
My fondest memory of that mall is the Digman's Halo-Halo stall at the Food Court. Their slogan was something like, "Sandosenang sarap!" or something of the sort. (Then, as it is now, my Tagalog is sorely lacking). Behind glistening glass, tiered shelves held bowls of halo-halo's requisite ingredients: ube, candied saba, garbanzos, red beans, gulaman, sago, leche flan, and others I don't recall anymore. Those ingredients must've been fabulous fakes because they always looked so real; strangely enough however, I never saw the stall attendants scooping anything from those bowls. There were two types of halo-halo, a Regular and a Special. I always got the Special because it had a scoop of ube ice cream.
When I was 9 or 10, my Lolo introduced me to Icebergs halo-halo, his favorite when he was still alive. As a little girl who was used to this summer cooler being served in tall glasses, Icebergs' goblet was quite the peculiarity but oh, how it gleamed like a jewel box of ingredients! "The best part," I remember Lolo telling me quite seriously, his index finger raised like a teacher driving home a point, "is the macapuno ball. Every bowl always has one ball."
Through the years, I've been romanced by various halo-halos. I like the one from Milky Way, and of course the Peninsula's Halo-Halo Harana stupefies in sparkle and size. My mom, who's never been a fan of Icebergs – "Halo-halo should never have cornflakes," she sniffs – swears by Razon's, she's Kapampangan, after all. The idea of Razon's all-white halo-halo is very appealing to me, as is their whisper-light shaved ice. Its simplicity is a cool contrast to the common colorful riot.
For me, almost all halo-halos are good but there are a few conditions. First, I detest gulaman – in any form, shape or color so I always fish those out along with the peaches. Halo-halo is a native specialty and peaches are not native. As much as possible, I want ice cream in my halo-halo, ube specifically; it's just not the same otherwise. A store once offered me mango ice cream because they'd run out of ube. I ran out of the store in reply.
But my absolute, no-holds-barred favorite of halo-halo is the milk that pools at the bottom of the glass. Imbued with all the ingredients that have anointed it, it's all at once sweet, fruity, cold – the perfect end to the perfect of summer coolers. And I'm not shy about asking the other people I'm eating with if I can have their halo-halo milk, should they decide they don't want it. Not too long ago, I mentioned my love for halo-halo milk to my friend and artisan ice cream maker, Ian Carandang. And look at what he did .
So tell me: who serves the best halo-halo AND what ingredients do you not like in it?

TRAINING: A typical day of training is getting the work done as smart and efficient as possible.
When and why did you start training for fighting? Coach Vaughn got me started when I was about 12 years old. I was a scrappy little kid, and he was helping me stay away from the bad crowd and keeping me out of trouble - New Mexico can be a tough place to grow up.
What ranks and titles have you held? KOTC champion at lightweight, welterweight, super welterweight.

MONTGOMERY, AL (WSFA) - A former standout football player at Auburn University is making sure a few lucky kids are ready for Monday's BCS National Championship Game.
The Cam Newton Foundation, an organization committed to making a positive impact in youth health and community service, handed out gift cards to 60 kids in Auburn and Montgomery for a private shopping spree.
The Foundation teamed up with Academy Sports and Outdoors for the spree. The sporting goods store is the official sporting goods retailer of the Auburn Tigers.
The lucky participants were from the Boys and Girls Club of Montgomery and Wrights Mill Road Elementary in Auburn where Newton mentored during his time with the Tigers.
Each student was given $100 to buy Auburn gear including shirts, jerseys, caps and novelty items.
"It's a good blend of everyone getting together to make sure these kids have an enjoyable time watching the game and have some new gear to cheer the team on with," explained Eric Herrera.
"I think he is a very nice guy to do this for us," said Kanita Wright. "Even though he is not at Auburn any more, he is still coming back to help, so I think he is a nice guy."
The Montgomery shopping spree was held Friday morning and 30 students took part. The Auburn shopping spree happened later in the afternoon with the other lucky kids.
Newton, who earned the Heisman Trophy and led the Tigers to an undefeated season in 2010 left for the NFL after Auburn's national championship win in 2010. He currently plays quarterback for the Carolina Panthers.

In discus, Jeremy Campbell does it again
On fourth throw of the night, Jeremy Campbell secures Paralympic Games crown.
LONDON – Jeremy Campbell set a Paralympic record on Thursday night en route to his second consecutive Paralympic Games gold medal in the men's discus (F44), recording a throw of 60.05 meters.
"I knew coming into this that I was going to have to do really well," Campbell said. "I've had a really good year training and competing."
It was Campbell's fourth attempt that put him in the lead, putting him ahead of Great Britain's Dan Greaves at the London 2012 Paralympic Games, to the disappointment of the hometown crowd.
The packed Olympic Stadium, at capacity at with 80,000, was unlike anything Campbell had seen.
"That was scary because for some reason, the crowd got to me today and I think that was noticeable," said Campbell, who set the world record 63.46 earlier this summer. "I just tried to focus. I knew he was trying to throw well, and I'm just glad that I got one out there."
The medal is actually the third of Campbell's collection. In addition to his discus medals, he also won gold in Beijing in the pentathlon, an event no longer part of the Paralympic program. Campbell said he didn't think anything would top his experience in China, but he was wrong.
"London topped it; just the whole crowd, the atmosphere, the fans are amazing, the coverage of it," he said. "I just think being here for a second time, my heart was just more in it."
The U.S. was hoping to pick up more hardware in Olympic Stadium on Thursday but missed the podium in a few final events. April Holmes, who was expected to compete in the women's 200m (T44), did not start the race. She apologized to her fans on Facebook and Twitter, citing a leg injury.
In the women's 200m (T53), world record holder Jessica Galli finished fourth and Anjali Forber Pratt was fifth. Jordan Bird took sixth in the men's 800m (T54), Chris Clemens (200m – T36) and Carliegh DeWald (200m – T34) were eighth in their respective events. Cece Mazyck finished 14th in the javelin throw (F57/58).The biggest race of the night, and possibly of the marquee event of the Games, was the men's 100m sprint (T44), which featured Americans Richard Browne, Blake Leeper and Jerome Singleton. Browne won the silver behind Jonnie Peacock of Great Britain.

Support the 2012 KDE Randa Meetings: Inspired and Intense
The KDE Randa Meetings are a small gathering of KDE contributors in the village of Randa, Switzerland. For the fourth year, the intense Randa sprints will include key KDE projects and top developers, all collaborating concurrently under one roof, isolated from noise and distractions. Funds are being raised to support the meetings.
"The sprints in Randa are special. Surrounded by the mountain landscape, intense collaboration happens as everyone gathers in one place. Meeting there means getting work done and no escape from planning, discussing and coding." says two-time Randa attendee and KDE Accessibility hacker, Frederik Gladhorn.
Randa 2012 will be held from 21 to 27 September 2012. The meeting participants have ambitious goals that will benefit KDE users and developers.
Every previous Randa meeting has been concentrated and productive, generating exceptional results; organizers and participants expect the same and more this year. The Randa meetings have produced significant breakthroughs in the past such as:
This year, 35 developers from all over the world will be at the Randa meeting. In seven inspiring days full of hard work, they will accomplish more than even they can imagine. Driven by a commitment to supporting Free Software for all people.
While the participants are unpaid volunteers, there are hard expenses, such as accommodation, food and travel. If you are not attending, you can still support the Randa meeting by making a donation. As in the past, the Randa meeting will benefit everyone who uses KDE software.
The fundraising goal is €10,000. Please donate what you can to help make Randa 2012 possible.
Some feedback
It is really good that KDE tries to raise funds from the community. This should be done more, but also for apps which lack manpower and which lack features or are buggy.
I also like the idea of using an external platform for this which may bring more attention. To me, the Pledgie platform looks boring and is not user friendly. When I want to donate, it asks me to create an account first (which takes extra time). It also allows donations without account, but this is not very visible and I nearly did not see it. I cannot recommend an alternative, but I would recommend looking for one that is visual pleasing and has a good usability.
And I have another suggestion. There are campaigns where a sponsor matches every donation with an equal donation. Since KDE already has corporate sponsors who might anyway also sponsor the event, it might be helpful to set up a matching donation campaign next time.

Guest post by David Carl.Â
This by way of introduction: we enjoy answering the question, "What's your favorite . . .†(fill in the blank here), because it give us a chance to talk about ourselves, and to tell others who we are by ostensibly talking about someone or something else (a favorite book, movie, author, artist, band, album, etc.). By telling others what we like, we try to tell them who we are. Perhaps it is even a manifestation of our higher impulse to obey the Delphic Oracle's injunction to strive for greater self-knowledge, for how often do we turn to art precisely to learn, not about the work in question, but from the work about ourselves and the world around us?
For those of us who care about art, literature, film, ("culture†as they used to call it), nothing says "who we are†more than the books we read, the movies we watch, the music we listen to . . . So when someone asked me recently who my favorite movie directors were, I responded with enthusiasm, despite the fact that the answer I gave was accompanied by the kind of unsubstantiated generalizations that generally drive me crazy when I hear other people spouting them:
Jean-Pierre Melville, for his unfailing portrayal of "cool†in cinema.
Michelangelo Antonioni, for his relentless depictions of post-Marxist "alienation,†not among the working class, but among the wealthy and privileged bourgeoisie of post-war Italy.
David Lynch, for just being plain weird in the most provocative ways.
Cool, alienated, weird. What else do we want from the movies?
It also occurred to me that Melville, Antonioni, and Lynch are all deeply western filmmakers, obsessed with a uniquely western response to the struggle between good and evil as a kind of spiritual crisis. Melville's heroes are often criminals, but they live by a code (like the bushido code of the samurai evoked in Melville's 1967 Le samouraï) which allows them to live with a sense of honor and distinguish right from wrong, even in the moral gray of the criminal underworld. Friendship, loyalty, courage—these are the virtues of Melville's heroes, and these qualities add up to a certain "cool†that he may derive from American actors like Bogart, Dean, and Brando, but to which he gives a uniquely French twist (different from the kind of "cool†we saw developed by later American actors like Steve McQueen and Paul Newman). It is within this sense of "cool†that Melville explores his own sense of spirituality, in the context of a kind of warrior ethic that is simultaneously an aesthetics of style. In Melville's hero the ethical and the aesthetic are gracefully blended in the notion of cool.
Antonioni's characters, on the other hand, although not criminals, are far less heroic; and while they occupy eminently aesthetic surroundings, they are wholly unethical—not because they are evil, but because they are weak. Melville's three virtues—friendship, loyalty, and courage—are wholly lacking in Antonioni's world. These characters are too close to pathetic to be tragic, but they are not contemptible because they are often too much like we are, and even in the fantasy world of the movies we find it difficult to hate ourselves. They are living through a kind of modern crisis from which all the heroics have been drained, and what is left behind is lush, indulgent, stylish and visually gorgeous, but spiritually bereft. It is in their response to this sense of bereavement that Antonioni's characters regain a kind of antiheroic charm, especially in the case of the female leads played by Monica Vitti in the four films she did with him between 1960 and 1964. Anything that can still be affirmed against this backdrop of modernity takes on a new significance.
Finally, with Lynch, cool and despair join hands to occupy a landscape that is alien in direct proportion to how familiar it seems on the surface. Unreal things happen in familiar places (our homes, our neighborhoods, inside our own heads), proving that these landscapes are not so familiar after all. What we thought was the comfortably familiar is revealed as concealing dark, hidden corners. These may be the corners of our own imaginations, which tend to run away with themselves, at least if Lynch has anything to do with it. But here too there is a kind of spiritual struggle going on; and a struggle between good and evil that is very real for Lynch, even if it is a rather narrowly conceived western (it would be Manichean if it didn't keep doubling in on itself and implicating his films' various heroes with a sense of their own moral ambiguity) sense of good and evil. The devil, last seen in the works of Milton, Goethe and Dostoevsky, is still alive and well in the films of Melville, Antonioni, and Lynch. He is still charming, still tempting, and still leaves a wake of despair that demands some sort of spiritual response from those he encounters. For filmmakers, with all the resources of the visual at their disposal, these responses, no matter how ethically grounded, must always be aesthetic as well.
All this may or may not be true, but it isn't really what I want to say about these directors, or how I'd like to write about their films. These comments are marked by the kind of unsubstantiated generalizations that one expects to hear at cocktail parties (at least the kinds of cocktail parties I'm always hoping to be invited to—as long as they're serving good whiskey along with the small talk), but they are not really the stuff of careful observation of the visual details that makes watching great cinema a great pleasure. What I would like to be able to do is discipline myself to greater acts of seeing. I'd like to see more, when I look at a movie, in the hope that great movies would reciprocally teach me to see more when I look away from them. Â
Also by way of introduction: I'm sure its curmudgeonly of me to admit I'm uncomfortable with the word "blogâ€â€"not because it makes me feel old, but because I am old, and it makes me feel like I should be doing something to compensate for that fact, rather than merely sitting back and enjoying it as the result of the long and laborious process of having stayed alive long enough to earn the dubious title. Instead of "blog†I prefer the old-fashioned word "essay,†which is more dignified, more accurate etymologically, and more representative of something that someone has labored over and taken time and care with. Whether or not someone has something to say, they should say it thoughtfully. "Blog†sounds like a particularly unpleasant body function. Something that happens to you when you've put down too much ambrosia salad on a hot 4th of July afternoon after drinking flat beer and eating some baked beans that weren't quite right to begin with. An essay, on the other hand, is the record of an earnest attempt, the written vestige of an effort that calls on you to try your very best, no matter how embarrassing the results, or how inadequate to the hopes and ambitions we brought to them.
Any essay that is not, on one level, a failure, is an essay that stopped too soon, when we were still feeling safe and secure in our own thinking. Often the failure is where things get interesting, where risks are taken and uncertainty and insecurity allowed to crawl out from under the rock we'd like to hide them beneath. A "blog†on the other hand, sounds like what it too often is: a spewing forth of whatever comes to mind without thought or reflection, without the care of craft or the craft of care. (This, for the record, is neither a blog nor an essay, but merely a rant. An inferior but satisfying form of literary production much older than the blog and not nearly so interesting as the essay.)
And this idea of the interesting failure is germane to the movies as well. One distinguishing characteristic of a great movie director (and perhaps this is true of great artists in any area of production) is that there is as much to learn from their failures as from their successes. Along with their masterpieces, Antonioni, Melville, and Lynch all made bad movies; but they are bad movies I've learned a lot from watching and thinking about. There is such a thing as a provocative failure. (Who was it that said, "I would rather be a successful failure than a failed success� I think it might have been a character in one of my novels, but perhaps it was the author consoling himself after the completed project.) Merely competent directors are capable of making good movies, but their bad ones will be devoid of interest.
There is such a thing as a "merely bad†work of art, one that is not even interesting in the way it fails. I care most about the work of those directors who not only risk going wrong, but actually precipitate themselves into the breach, knowing that the only alternative is to remain perpetually on the safe side of what they are comfortable and familiar with (what they are "good atâ€). The comfortable and familiar being antithetical to art however we choose to define it.
Next time: some thoughts about seeing in Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather.

Everything goes together to make a great comfort food dish. A great cheesy pasta. However, adding more butter or some kind of oil might be beneficial because the cheese kind of hardened and got rubbery after a while.

Pretty good but nothing special
Feb 9, 2012
I did not like this recipe, as soon as I added the cheese the sauce fell apart. It was NOT good at all!! I wasted my time on this recipe . My advice is to use less cheese.
Aug 19, 2011
This has quickly become a family favorite....it is my 18 year old son's favorite. I use Kraft Italian blend for the mozarella provolone mix since I don't care to grate provolone. I am an accomplished cook and found the prep time to be too little (unless you use multiple pans and buy your mushrooms already sliced). The time is worth it. Save your calories from another meal to eat this!!

Beyond the word: reconstructing sense in the Joyce era of technology, culture, and communication
University of Toronto Press, 1995 - Language Arts & Disciplines - 328 pages
Beyond the Word provides as implicit critique of postmodernism, redefining it as a further, radical stage of modernism. Theall argues that Joyce anticipated many of the insights of semiotics, post-structuralism, and postmodernism. Moreover, Joyce and other modern artists differed from their predecessors in exhibiting a greater sense of their place within a dynamic, multifaceted field of communication. Thus, long before the emergence of postmodernism, these radical modernists posed an implicit challenge to the traditional notion of art as a privileged sphere. Beyond the Word situates artistic expression within a broad ecology of communication alongside genres such as comics, games, ads, videos, and slogans of spontaneous protest. Within this context, Theall reconsiders the contributions of Marshall McLuhan, Harold Innis, Gregory Bateson, and Kenneth Burke to our contemporary understanding of communication, and looks at artists as disparate as Dusan Makavejev, Stanley Kubrick, Alexander Pope, Rabelais, William Gibson, Gene Roddenberry, and Wyndham Lewis.

Grand Prize- Worth over $450!
Hi, my name is Nicole. I make Midnight Pretty items in the Portland, Oregon area, where I am also a manager at a local non-profit. My background includes my Master's in Public Health and my work with teens, elders, and diverse population.
I started designing and hand-making jewelry a few years ago as a way to show my love for friends and family. I am always learning and exploring techniques in crafting. Every piece I make has a story – some are made from upcycled materials and others are inspired by people and places that mean something to me. All come packaged in pretty wrapping for you!
Nicole is offering these beautiful green upcycled glass earrings on surgical steel earhooks. Simple and beautiful! Valued at $29.00!
This is a 13″ Platter Plate valued at $25.00. This unique one-of-a-kind plate, titled "Believe", has been decoupaged with wonderfully heart-warming fabric depicting a family of snow people engaging in various memory-making activities. I've embellished this plate with a whimsical-style wooden heart stating "Believe". Believe in the magic of the holidays, and the value of making great family memories year round, with this beautiful plate in your home. Perfect as a gift too!

The earrings are suspended on sterling silver plated hooks and the necklace chain is a sparkling, petite ball chain that is 18 karat white gold plated. Reg. Price $44.00
Laura says, "It is important to me to design, quality, versatile pieces that are affordable for all because I believe the way a special object makes you feel when you wear it should not be attainable only by a privileged few. It should have the ability to transform you and how you feel by wearing it. A piece of jewelry shouldn't only be beautiful and special… It should make you feel beautiful and special".

PHP Model View Controller Pattern Online Course
PHP Model View Controller Pattern Online Course in Kenya
2KO is an IT consulting and training company, offering both business services and multi-platform training. 2KO Africa's wide range of computer courses are available as full time classes, or as online learning.
Using the open source and well documented PHP MVC Project as a starting point, you will learn how to incorporate Model View Controllers into your development and solidify your skills by building your own MVC based framework.
What Is Model-View-Control?
The Model-View-Control (MVC) pattern, originally formulated in the late 1970s, is a software architecture pattern built on the basis of keeping the presentation of data separate from the methods that interact with the data. In theory, a well-developed MVC system should allow a front-end developer and a back-end developer to work on the same system without interfering, sharing, or editing files either party is working on. Even though MVC was originally designed for personal computing, it has been adapted and is widely used by web developers due to its emphasis on separation of concerns, and thus indirectly, reusable code. The pattern encourages the development of modular systems, allowing developers to quickly update, add, or even remove functionality.

Silver Accents: Cool metal touches give this room a sophisticated air. The scrolling mirror, the legs of the coffee table, even the fireplace andirons are all glossed in chic silver. Writing on the Wall: For truly unique (and sometimes quirky) decor. You can search by theme, type, even lyrics to your favorite Men Without Hats song. Does your living room work double duty as a front entry? Keep the two separated and well defined by lining one wall with a welcoming wallpaper, and keeping the living room furniture appropriated to an area rug. Flower Power: Here's a bloomin' brilliant idea: Keep oversized patterns in check by limiting them to well defined spaces (here a bouquet of blue flowers covers an occasional seat and an oversized roman shade). It will keep the powerful pattern from taking over the room. Back to Back: Create a dynamic seating arrangement by placing a set of sofas in the center of the room and with their backs to each other. It's a bold move that creates two conversation corners.
Formal Arrangement: Designed for entertaining and little tete a tetes, this formal living room's oval furniture arrangement keeps the focus inwards. Plus Size Arranging: An extra large sofa can mean plenty of room to stretch out, but it can also engulf a room. The trick is to anchor an oversized piece of furniture against a wall and use other voluminous accessories (a jumbo print or a king sized ottoman) for balance. Cabin Chic: A rustic retreat gets a pop with slipper chairs covered in a tribal ikat. It gives the outdoorsy cabin a feminine spin. Playing Together: Spike the interest level in a neutral room with a few splatters of pattern. The bold designs on these throw pillows might be overwhelming in a larger scale, but in a petite form they add a casual chic vibe. Eclectic Appeal: Two Moroccan poufs set on the floor give a wanderlust feel to this traditional living room and provide extra casual seating for guests. Accent Wall: Swathe one wall in a cheery wallpaper to warm your space. Choose a print that picks up other colors in the room. Office Space: Create a petite home office in your living room that's big on style: Instead of a traditional desk chair (that would look out of place) appoint a living room chair that looks good facing the desk or the rest of the space.
Viewing Area: The eternal question: What to do with the TV? If space allows, try placing your television in a corner so the flow of the room is uninterrupted (but where you can still enjoy Downton Abbey comfortably from the sofa). Bursts of Cheer: Maxi floral prints and super-sized stripes are whimsical touches that give this living room an affable appearance. Warm and Inviting: Nothing says, "curl up and stay awhile" like an extra-deep, sink into me sofa and a plush ottoman to rest your feet. Load on Layers: Stimulate the senses with plenty of textures, including a scratchy jute rug underfoot, a tweedy wallpaper, and a luxurious cashmere throw on the sofa. Polished Pairs: Ah, the power of two: A pair of identical console tables flank the fireplace and two different, but similarly colored, sofas face each other for a pulled together look. Natural Elements: A mix of polished and unfinished wood pieces, and a neutral shade on the wall, can make a room feel chic and not campy. Feeling the Blues: A palette of navy blues makes this room feel instantly inviting and cozy. It's a durable color for big pieces of furniture, like this plush sectional, since it masks everyday dirt. Small-Space Solution: The trick to turning a small-space into an elegant living area is to use appropriately sized furniture. A sectional sofa might seem too big for a petite area but in fact it's the perfect size and helps define the space. (Using small furniture in a tight space only exacerbates a compact feeling.)
