Bacon & Freud at the London School at the Chiostro del Bramante.
Two giants of painting, Bacon and Freud, for the first time together in an exhibition in Italy. One of the most fascinating, extensive and significant chapters of world art with the London School. An extraordinary city in a revolutionary period.
Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, British art in over seven decades (from 1945 to 2004), the spirit of a city on display at the Cloister of Bramante in Rome, curated by Elena Crippa, Curator of Modern and Contemporary British Art, Tate. Thanks to an extraordinary loan from Tate, along with Bacon and Freud, Michael Andrews, Frank Auerbach, Leon Kossoff and Paula Rego, artists who marked an era, inspired generations, used painting to tell the story of life.
Over 45 works reveal, in a direct and shocking way, the human condition made of fragility, energy, opposites, excesses, evasions, truth, no filter, in a historical moment, ours, so rich in filters. The exhibition is organized in collaboration with Tate, London.
Location: Chiostro del Bramante, Via della Pace, Rome, Metropolitan City of Rome, Italy
Date: 26 September 2019 – 23 February 2020

President Trump on Saturday celebrated the liberation of Raqqa from the Islamic State, saying this week's recapture of the Syrian city by U.S.-backed forces could lead to an end of the caliphate.
"The defeat of ISIS in Raqqa represents a critical breakthrough in our worldwide campaign to defeat ISIS and its wicked ideology," Trump said in a statement released by the White House. "With the liberation of ISIS's capital and the vast majority of its territory, the end of the ISIS caliphate is in sight."
U.S.-backed Syrian forces have gained control of the northern city that once was the heart of the Islamic State's self-styled caliphate, dealing a major blow to the extremist group that has seen its territory shrink ever smaller since summer.
"We will soon transition into a new phase in which we will support local security forces, de-escalate violence across Syria, and advance the conditions for lasting peace, so that the terrorists cannot return to threaten our collective security again," Trump said.
Militants took over the vibrant metropolis on the Euphrates River in 2014, transforming it into the epicenter of their brutal rule, where opponents were beheaded and terror plots hatched.
It took thousands of bombs dropped by the U.S.-led coalition and more than four months of grueling house-to-house battles for the Syrian Democratic Forces to recapture Raqqa, marking a new chapter in the fight against the group whose once vast territory has been reduced to a handful of towns in Syria and Iraq.
"Together, with our allies and partners, we will support diplomatic negotiations that end the violence, allow refugees to return safely home, and yield a political transition that honors the will of the Syrian people," the president said.
Trump took credit for the progress, referencing his campaign promise to defeat the Islamic State and his orders to the military to counter its spread.
"As a result, ISIS strongholds in Mosul and Raqqa have fallen," Trump said. "We have made, alongside our coalition partners, more progress against these evil terrorists in the past several months than in the past several years.
He also praised the acts of the service members who battled the Islamic State.
"I commend all of our coalition partners for the sacrifices they have made in this noble effort," he said. "Therefore, as we recognize this military accomplishment, we also pause to honor our service men and women and all they have given to protect us and all civilized people from these modern day barbarians.

This year was unforgettable for team India as they experienced many highs this year. They started their year with beating Australia at their home soil. They not only beat Australia but also became the first Asian team to win a test series Down Under. Men in Blue continued their streak by winning many bilateral series. However, when it comes to individuals performances, this year will only be remembered by all RO-SUPERHIT Sharma innings. Let us now see all Rohit Sharma's records and achievements of the year 2019
Here is a list of all Rohit Sharma's Records of 2019
1. Highest Runs In ODI
This Year he is the highest run-scorer in ODIs 2019. In 28 matches he scored 1490 runs with an average of 57.30 with the highest score of 159 runs which came against the West Indies in 2nd ODI of the last series of 2019.
2.The only player to register a hat-trick of most number of sixes in a calendar year
For the last 3 years, Rohit has hit the most number of sixes in a calendar year.
He broke his own record of 65 sixes(in 2017) by hitting 74 sixes in 2018 and now in 2019 he again broke his record of 74 sixes by hitting 77 sixes in 2019.

4. 10 Hundred In A Calendar Year

He is the only cricketer in the world who scores 10 centuries in a single calendar year while opening the innings. Former South African skipper Graeme Smith in 2005, Indian legend Sachin Tendulkar in 1998, and David Warner in 2016 score 9 centuries in a single calendar year.

Meghan Markle Will Break A Huge Royal Tradition This Christmas
Christmas traditions, everyone's got them, and like most people the royals have more than everyone else, as Meghan Markle will soon find out spending her first festive time with the Windsors.
Guinness for breakfast, stopping the cat from drinking the water from under the tree, hiding the shame as everyone discovers all their presents have been bought at Poundland… oh hang on, they're mine.
No, and Meghan won't be spending a few hours at lunchtime down the British Legion drinking £2 pints of John Smith's while the old man makes borderline comments to the poor barmaid working the shift that nobody ever wants either.
Instead, she'll be having a black-tie dinner, a full English and seeing what it's like to gather around the family TV and watch grandma give her speech to her country. That's got to take some getting used to.
Meghan Markle's already tearing up the rulebook by being the first royal fiancée to spend Christmas Day with the royal family.
The Times reports a friend of Harry's said:
Now they are engaged it was unthinkable that they would be apart for Christmas. The royal family have fully welcomed Meghan into the fold.
It wasn't always this way. Even as recently as Wills and Kate's engagement in 2010, they spent Christmas apart with Catherine of Cambridge – as she's now officially known – spending Christmas with her family in Berkshire.
Turns out Harry had asked the Queen for an exception.
Vanity Fair reports he took a typically comical outlook on the special treatment his bride-to-be has received, from his nan and from the corgis.
Prince Harry said:
I've spent the last 33 years being barked at—this one walks in, absolutely nothing.
But the big shocker is the news that on Boxing Day it's tradition for the royals to go for a spot of pheasant shooting on the 20,000 acre royal grounds, but Meghan, who is opposed to blood sports, is unlikely to be taking part.
Imagine that, you've just invited your youngest grandson's fiance for Christmas and she's not going to join you out back to fire some lead into some birds. Outrage.
I'll have her spot. Be nice to eat something I can cook this year.

Usually, when one makes a living by providing intangible services or ideas and concepts like it happens in advertising, consulting, coaching, speaking or writing, you easily get used to sharing your thoughts with everyone. You dedicate yourself to talking and talking, sometimes even without stopping to listen, even though you know how important it is to do so to be able to achieve your ultimate goal which is connecting with people.
This is why a lot of us are frequently asking for feedback, be it through the comments box in our blog, via e-mail or in a phone call, also by way of a mention in another forum, a comment in the hall or in an event or even through a formal survey as well.
We are always looking, observing, learning the opinions of those around us, because we know that there is better way to help us get better at what we do, better at connecting with you.
In time you start getting feedback frequently and in many shapes and forms, some comments more personal than others, some flattering some not so much. But what always caughts my attention is that almost every comment you receive is about how, with a comment you shared, you somehow impacted the life of another human being. And believe me when I tell you that that is really food for the soul.
Now the funny thing though is that in most of the occasions, those people who let you know about how you impacted their life, are oblivious of the impact they are having on you! They ignore how you can go around and around a comment they left and with which you don't entirely agree or how many times you read a positive comment they left for you and that always makes you smile.
They don't know how proud we feel when, we get invited to deliver a new keynote as a result of the one we just gave, or how insecure we can get if after a presentation no one is asking questions or commenting on what we just discussed; or the great satisfaction we get when we are able to help or collaborate with someone else, be it a group, an entire organization or just one single person.
This is why, this week, I just wanted to share with you how gratefull I am for all your comments and the way you impact my life: the short and precise comment from Mr. White or from Jack, Franciscos e-mails, the comments from Tam in this blog, Ramiro's opinion from
These are all what, in days like this, when I don't have much to say, remind me of how important it is to keep sharing, because without a post like this every week, I would most likely not hear from you.
So here's a quick recommendation: Never loose sight of the impact you can always have on the rest. It's like Anita Roddick (Founder of The Body Shop) used to say: "If you think you are too small to have an impact, try going to ven with a Mosquito."
By the way! As promised, here are some of the pictures I took during the last 2 seminars at Google, the one at CIM and the presentation at Ogilvy…Were you in one of these? Check out the photos and see if you can find yourself!

Uplifting Humanity thru Harmony
June 17, 2008 at 13:53 Leave a comment
One of the unexpected joys of opening the doors to Global Fayre was that we would get to hear about some of the fantastic things members of the Springfield community are doing to ease the plight of less fortunate people around the world. It seems like every week brings us in to contact with a new person, project or group working with a community in need. Sometimes the community in need is close to home, often it is on the other side of the world. Yet hearing the story always brings that community closer, and makes their plight more real, refuelling our commitment to help them help themselves.
A group that has recently emerged in Springfield is Ethiopian Child. Their mission is to bring aid to the hearing-impaired children of Ethiopia. These children are nearly always neglected, often abused or worse, and are in desperate need of the basic things in life; food, clothing and education. Ethiopian Child holds its first fund-raising event this evening (June 17) with a gig at the Gillioz called Uplifting Humanity thru Harmony (tickets $10). Starting at 7:00pm, there's a great line-up, with performances from Alea and Alexa Kilgore and Alexander Washington, and talks from Patrick Mureithi and Sesha Shannon.
If you do make it to the concert tonight, and want to make your donation go even further, save your half of the ticket stub and show it when you next come in to Global Fayre. 10% of whatever you spend on that visit will go to Ethiopian Child.

January Jones recently came out and said that, thanks to her penchant for changing the color of her hair, it's coming out in clumps. Not fun. While, knock wood, I am yet to experience this same side effect of hair dyeing, god-knows-how-many-years of coloring my hair has definitely taken its toll. To put it bluntly, my hair is fried.
I can make it seem otherwise when in public with the steadfast use of serums and sprays and round brushes and whatnot. But when it comes down to it, years of highlighting my hair, along with the use of heated styling products, have left my hair a hot mess.
But there is hope. Well, I hope there's hope 'cause sweet baby Jesus, I need it. Here are five ways to unfry your hair.
1.) Deep condition or use a hair mask (or masque if you're fancy) every day. A lot of the directions on super rich conditioners or masks instruct you to use them once or twice a week. If your hair is really dry, just use it every day. As a stylist once told me: It's impossible to over-condition your hair. I had a period of time when I was doing this, and my hair's texture definitely improved. I need to get on it again. Conditioners I've used and love: Bosley Professional Healthy Hair Moisture Masque and Kiehl's Olive Fruit Oil Deeply Repairative Hair Pak. (Note: If you have nothing to do, leave conditioner in all day.)
2.) Hair vitamins. Kyle Richards has credited the supplement Nourage for her long, healthy locks, but if $60 is a little pricey for you (as it is me), try GNC's Hair, Skin, and Nail vitamins.
3.) Splurge on shampoo. We all have expenses, but every once in a while, you've gotta splurge. Spend a little extra on your shampoo now and again and go for the good stuff. One glossy-haired editor here at The Stir HQ suggested Biolage. Noted.
4.) Get a salon treatment. A balls-to-the-wall approach to getting softer, shiner hair if there ever was one. Many salons now offer deep conditioning, glazing, or glossing treatments. Typically, they're pretty affordable and don't take very long. But please note: The difference between a gloss and a glaze is a gloss is more permanent, and can actually alter the color of your hair a bit, whereas a glaze will last a little over a week -- think of it as a top coat of nail polish.
5.) Dye your hair a bit darker. I know, it sounds crazy that dyeing your hair could actually make it healthier, but it's true. If you've been lightening your hair for years with highlights or single process, going darker will give the appearance of softer, shinier, healthier hair. The reason being darker colors fill in porous hair better making it look less, well, fried.
Do you have fried hair? What have you done to make your hair healthy again?

The newer and trimmer Optoma PK102, a successor to PK101, has been launched with improvements on where it matters most in this economic snag – the bottom-line. For $229, almost half the price of PK101, the pico projector is sure to attract those who held off on PK101 initially. Featuring the same DLP engine with a 480 x 320 resolution, PK102, however, has an improved contrast ratio of 2000:1, 4GB of internal memory, a composite video input as well as a universal port capable of receiving VGA and component video signals. It also has built-in speakers and can play MP3 files.
Losing the extraneous weight and build has produced a sleeker and more attractive projector. Not only slimmer in design, the package has better connectivity and is cheaper, too!

I am a quilter - a retired widow living in the Nebraska Panhandle. I am surrounded by beautiful semi-arid ranch country, and treeless hills and fields under incredibly wide blue skies, located far from the upheaval found often in large towns or cities. I am blessed to have delicious time to quilt and to appreciate my peaceful moments in an unpeaceful world.

Bento Box
(MUCH prettier in person! Light turquoise, dark blue/black!) Blahhh beige on Design Floor! LOL
Easy to piece! I'm aiming for 30, 12 inch blocks, altho I only have these fabrics for 20 blocks - oh well, I'll think of something. Thank you to Fons and Porter and YouTube for this great video.
For info ... Youtube, Fons and Porter, Bento Box. Their example used many colors, but all of similar values. You use whole strips (WOF), and all pieces for each block are cut from each pair of strips. So you would use 30 pairs of strips for 30 blocks. These are 2 1/2 in. strips, but I think other sizes would work. I'm not sure if a scrappy palette would work. ?? The video gives you sizes to cut.
This is what I did (suggest). Make the block in quarters. I made one quarter at a time - could not do much chain piecing - I got mixed up, sidetracked, interrupted and ended up pressing wrong way. I think my mind wandered because it's so easy. (That's my story and I'm stickin' to it!) Pressing is THE key to success. Note that each quarter block is mostly light or mostly dark. If the quarter block is light, press ALL seams IN. If the quarter block is dark, Press ALL seams OUT! (Do not consider the old adage of "press to dark"! ) It goes together like a breeze.

I have made the Bento box with 30 different Kaffe fabrics. It looks good in 2 colors or many colors.

The quilt appears to be shimmering--very fun!
- Purple Pam said...
I like your Bento Box. I have a darling little tin with all the fabrics and pattern in the tin to make a Bento Box quilt. I really like my little tin and the fabrics within it. I want to make the design, but not use up my lovely fabrics in the matching tin. Isn't that ridiculous? Now I can use the Fons and Porter video and make a Bento Box quilt with their directions. Thanks for the tip on the pressing.
- Elsie Montgomery said...
Have you ever taught classes? I think that your humor alone would be a great incentive to learning! Thanks for the tips!
- Elizabeth V Kelbaugh said...
Thanks for sharing. I would like to try making one. It looks easy enough for a charity quilt.

Twitter: addictive for some, egotistical yuppie nonsense for others.. and now research to prove it!
According to new research, 10 percent of users are making a massive 90 percent of tweets. Harvard looked at 300,000 users and found that 40 percent of users stopped making posts after their first day. With sites like @bbcnews or @guardiantech you can use Twitter as a 140 character e-reader to get your daily dose of news.
Not just this though, with research finding that not everyone's engaging in the phenomenon; two-thirds of people follow fewer than ten people and 25 per cent of people don't follow anyone. They also found that twitter users are more likely to follow men and not women, unlike other social networking sites.
According to this technical diagram courtesy of Despair.com, Twitter is the sole social networking site to attract Narcissisistic, Stalking, and ADHD personas.
So for big names such as @Wossy (and a personal favourite @CharltonBrooker) it might be a great way to tell us about socks, the weather and hot pants. Meanwhile for the majority, we either stop tweeting or get addicted. It does seem that once you're hooked through, the somewhat irrelevant nonsense of your day becomes important news.
Now, off to a certain website to tell you all about this lovely blog post I've just written...

text: We have a day approaching that will be very much like the sinking of the Titanic. It will be unexpected and not prepared for by millions of people. It will catch those of this world off guard and unaware. It will be like a punch in the gut that takes away your breath and knocks you down. Some think that their lives are unsinkable. They will be just as bad off as those on this ill-fated ship.

Orange Mango 'Mom'osa!
It's finally here, everyone! The first day of school! I officially have a 6th grader and a kindergartener. EEP! Only a few tears shed (BY ME) at drop off. Whew! Now, I get to come home and relax! I'll clean the house after because we all know how fast that chore is without little ones interrupting you all the time! HA! To help celebrate (or drown your sorrows, however you feel about the beginning of school) I whipped up these Orange Mango Mimosas! Also affectionately named, the 'Mom'osa! 😉
Orange Mango Mimosa
- Simply Orange with Mango juice
- Frozen Mango chunks, 2 cups for about 2 mimosas
- Your favorite Sparkling Wine (I used a sparkling moscato, it's a little on the sweet side)
- Grenadine, optional
This recipe is REALLY simple. Blend 2 cups of frozen mango chunks with 1-2 cups of Simply Orange with Mango juice. You want a smooth, creamy, pourable mixture. I was so excited about this drink, I forgot to take a picture of the blending! Fill your glasses about half full with the mango mixture. Add in a splash of grenadine, if desired. This is completely optional, but I think it's pretty and adds a cherry sweetness to the mimosa.
Top with your favorite bubbles! You can use champagne, prosecco, or sparkling wine. I used a nice, on-the-sweet-side sparkling moscato. YUM!
Give it a swirl with a spoon and there you have it! So sweet, creamy, and bubbly! The mango adds a nice tang and the juice is, well, SIMPLY delicious.
Looks like a fruit smoothie! You can whip up the mango mixture and just add it to more orange juice if you want to treat the kiddos to a special back to school drink! I'll be whipping up a batch of these MOMosas Saturday morning to celebrate surviving our first week back to school! I guess I'll call them mimosas and let the hubby in on this tasty drink!
As always, we ask you to please drink responsibly!

The Legend of Vernon McAlister
(Cuneiform Records, 2006)
I was enticed into checking out Richard via a rave review of his first album, Fingertip Ship, in a Wayside Music catalog. They often get music at insanely cheap prices, and I've discovered many excellent artists for small monetary risk. I'm fairly certain Fingertip Ship set me back all of $4.
The Legend of Vernon McAlister is Richard's fourth album, and was recorded at home, in his attic, entirely with a 1930s National Duolian steel-bodied guitar. The guitar was given him as a gift, and he noticed scratched onto the steek back, "Vernon McAlister." He was so enamored of the guitar, he made up a backstory (i.e., the legend) for Vernon and recorded this fantastic album.

Many people believe we are born with the instinct of right and wrong, and as we grow older we make the choice to do what is right or wrong. I believe that all children are born innocent and it's the way the parents raise them, what they allowed them to be exposed to, what their environment is that causes them to make the wrong choices, but even at that, I believe that God instills certain gifts and attitudes in each child.
I have known many children in my life, some who I helped raise, and others through the various children ministries that I worked in. I don't believe any child is born inherently evil. I have seen children raised in the church, with an excellent home life become lying, cheating, manipulating people and I have seen children born and raised in poverty, in the ghettos, around every despicable sin you can imagine grow up to be good Christians and professors, preachers, teachers and the like.
Many people, including myself believe that our instincts are often the Holy Spirit, our guiding Spirit, talking to us. Many times our instincts have kicked in just at the right moment, saving us from disaster or worse, death.
Today I am thankful for those instincts. It was very cold out last night, one of the coldest nights we've had this winter so far. When I went to warm up the car, it was making a funny noise, which went away after it ran for a few minutes. Rich had a feeling that I needed to take it down and have the oil checked. I drove down to O'Reilly's and they said it was bone dry.
They were under the opinion that it had been drained and someone forgot to put the oil back in. This would make sense since we had a seal replaced about a year ago and they would have to drain the oil to put the new one in. Now whether they didn't put enough back in or totally forgot to put in any, I don't know and it's been too far back to even ask them.
Now you might ask why the engine didn't freeze up or some other damage occur before now? That totally has to be a God thing, for he knows how bad we really need to keep this car running. We have made it a habit in our household to follow our instincts and each time it has saved us some misery along the way.

I read my bible every morning, in fact I have been reading through several different translations. Right now I am reading "The Book", put out by Tinsdale Publishers. I've already finished off the KJV translation and read some in the NKJV and the "Good News" bible. Basically they are almost identical in their translation other than some are more basic English instead of old English with the "thees" and "thou's" often changed to you and yours. I find them all very interesting. When I was younger, the bible was hard to read, but now I find it very interesting to read about the battles they fought and how they were tempted and turned from the lord. There is much information to be absorbed, lessons for living other than the ten commandments are there among the pages.
We wanted more, so we have been reading several books put out by Readers Digest and Time-Life books. They not only repeat a lot of what was put in the bible, but they give you insight into how the people had to live, how they traveled, what they ate, and what their daily habits were.
For example, did you know that the Israelites were a nomadic people long before they settled down and built cities in the land that God promised them? They traveled all year around. Water holes, good pasture land, locations with good soil for planting crops were the legacies that were passed down from generation to generation. They also knew what cities they could camp outside, trade with and pass through without problems or being attacked.
They lived in tents that they carried with them, often having to travel many miles a day on foot, with mules carrying their supplies, herding their sheep along with them. When they did start building cities, their homes were built with mud bricks and thatch. The bottom floor is where the animals were housed, and a ladder would lead up to a second floor,an open loft where the family slept during the winter and they would sleep on the roof during the warm summer nights.
They ate mostly grain, figs, pomegranates, grapes, and some vegetables. Sheep were mostly kept for their wool which they would trade for other supplies and make their clothes from. Some were kept specifically for the different sacrifices that were to made on different events during the year.
Today I am thankful for our home, for a structure that is not open to stinky animals or the elements. I am thankful for a place that keeps the sun and rain off me as I work and sleep. I am thankful for the location that is close to everything and that I don't have to worry about traveling from one spot to another, erecting a tent or building, a new structure to keep me and my animals safe until it is time to move again.

QUETTA - Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has assured the masses of halting military operation in Balochistan as well as other parts of the country if his party is voted to power.
Addressing public meetings in Loralai and Sibi districts of Balochistan on Wednesday, Imran said missing persons would be recovered and the series of recovery of mutilated dead bodies would also be stopped. He asked the audience to come out of their homes for the sake of a prosperous future.
The PTI chief regretted that the richest province of the country in terms of resources was backward and impoverished because of Sardars, Waderas and feudalists. "The people sitting in Islamabad always gave huge funds to Sardars, Waderas and feudalists and ignored the poor. These waderas devoured the funds instead of launching any welfare project for the people," he said and asked the people to use their right to vote on the basis of ideology instead of sect and nationality. Imran Khan said he had come to Balochistan to emancipate the masses from the clutches of cruel Sardars and Wadears as his competition in Balochistan was not with lion, but with feudalists. "The Sardars and feudalists always misappropriated the money of the people and kept them underprivileged," he remarked.
He said the only one way to get rid of usurpers was that the people should come out of their homes on May 11 without any fear and vote for PTI. If PTI was voted to power, it would introduce a new system and a local government system to shift powers to poor people. He added the secret of flourishing democracy in the western world was a strong local government system. He recalled when the British took control of India, there was a strong local government system under which the people used to get education, justice and basic facilities but as soon as that system ended, feudalism gained strength. "We want the people to get justice and their resources should be utilised for their welfare. PTI will make Balochistan the most prosperous province in the country," Imran Khan pledged.
He said that like other parts of the country, PTI also issued tickets to youth and these young candidates would defeat Sardars and Nawabs.
He vowed PTI would end poverty and provide better education and health facilities for the people while water and unemployment issues would also be addressed. He said the missing persons would be recovered and the series of recovery of decomposed dead bodies would also be stopped. "The people should come out of their homes on the election day because this is a war of their future," he said. Imran promised that if PTI was voted to power, he would not only end military operation in Balochistan but also in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and other parts of the country. Tight security measures had been taken during his visit to avoid any untoward incident.
INP adds: Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan has said that Asif Ali Zardari has usurped the PPP and it has no more remained the party of Bhutto.
He stated this while addressing an election campaign gathering in Jacobabad on Wednesday.
Imran Khan said PPP is no more a party of Bhutto; it has now become Zardari party. He said Sindhi's had to face the worst oppression in the country.
He said that the first and foremost priority of his government would be to bring a local bodies system across the country.
He called upon the people of Sindh not to waste this golden opportunity and reject the outdated system. The people of Sindh don't need to be scared from big feudalists and land owners, he said.
He said that Zardari was running the government in the name of Bhutto. No MNA or MPA in PTI government would get development funds, he said, adding the people would be empowered at village level.
In a startling claim, Imran Khan has said that former prime minister Benazir Bhutto was not killed by the Taliban. In an interview with Daily Telegraph, the PTI chief said Bhutto had been 'clearly killed by people worried she was going to come into power'. He did not say whether his claim was based on any concrete evidence that he was privy to.
Khan's claim contradicts the investigations done by a UN commission as well as Britain's Scotland Yard police.

Lifting the Veil Essay
The oecumenic reasoning of the tap in this bea of humeral veil Lifting the Corporate veil has been confusing and, at times, contraryDiscussThe enquire requires an analysis of whether the parent commwholey (A) lead be probable for the claims against its auxiliary, (b) in some other words, whether the bodied veil can be elevate in this group structure. Both the parent ships corporation and its auxiliary are in integrated which have been legally formed. A gild once incorporated, is a separate, and different legal entirely from the people who set it up The overcloud of incorporation is created by the formula of separate legal personality and that limited liability which are establish in Salomon v Salomon & Co Ltd (1897)A compevery, once incorporated is a separate and distinct from the people who set it up. In a follow limited by shares, a members liability for the company debts is limited to his subscribed shares. The acts are very protective of the Salomon princi ple and precisely lift the wipe out in a small human action of exceptional cases at putting green practice of law and by statute. As in that location are no clear(p) rules or guidelines for lifting the corporate veil, it is correct argued that this area of law is confusing, contradiction and difficult to rationalize. workout in Solomon v Solomon& Co Ltd (1897)In a company limited by shares, a shareholder is not likely for the companys debts. As (A) hold shares in (b) , it enjoys the protection of limited liability in compliance of debts of (b), if the corporate veil could be elevate and the separate legal personality of (b) be ignored, (a) would be apt(p) for claims against (b). The court may lift the corporate veil if the corporate group structure is utilise as the example in go game v Cape Industries plc 1990 Cape Industries plc (cape) was an English mining company and its products were marketed with its subsidiary companies in the linked State. A number of workers suffered from inhaling asbestos. The question can Cape mother company in England be presumable for the subsidiary in the state.The judgment in Adams v Cape Industries Plc 1990 has significantly narrow the ability of the court to lift the Veil in case, subsidiary companies were incorporated in the United States of that the parent company in the United Kingdom could avoid future asbestosis claims in the United State. The costof Appeal reviewed this complex area of law and concluded that the Veil could only be lifted in three circumstances.. The only way that the veil of incorporation would be lifted by the Court was only in thee circumstances, (i) view cape group as a single entity, (ii) describe the subsidiary as a mere faade, (iii) the subsidiary were agents for cape. The Court exhaustively examine all the three possibility (i) find the subsidiary as a mere faadeFirst, the veil may be lifted when the corporate structure is a mere sham or faade concealing the true fact. It is dif ficult to clearly define mere faade or decided whether the arrangements of a corporate group involve a faade. In Adam v Cape the Court of Appeal held that the company structure was a faade when it had been used by a suspect to evade limitations imposed on his conduct by law or when it had been used to evade rights which third parties already possessed against him.In Gilford Motor Co v Horn 1933A former employee who was bound by a covenant not to solicit client from his former employers set up a company to do so. The defendant formed the company as a device to avoid liabilities in interruption of his pre- compriseing legal duty and the Veil was lifted .J singles v Lipman 1982The Veil was lifted when the company was set up by the defendant to avoid limited performance in relation to transfer of land. The Court described the company as a device, a sham, a mask which he hold before his face in an attempt to avoid credit entry by the eye of equity. The defendant formed the company as device to avoid liabilities in breach of his pre existing legal duty and the Veil was lifted.The company structure is a faade only when it has used by a defendant to evade limitations imposed on his conduct by law Example in Jones v Lipman 1962Mr. Lipmann had entered had entered into a contact with Mr. Jones for the sale of land. Mr. Lipman then changed his mind and did not want to make out the sale. He formed a company in order to avoid the transaction and conveyed the land to it instead. He then claimed he no longer owned theland and could not comply with the contract. The judge be the company was but a faade and granted an order for specific performance. But the of Appeal in Adam Court in held that each company was a separate legal entity from its shareholders and the presence of the US subsidiaries did not automatically amount to the presence of the English parent company. (ii) view cape group as an AgencySecondly, the Court may lift the veil if a express delegation relati onship exist between a company and its shareholders, or between a parent and subsidiary company in a group structure. Although a company is a separate legal entity instead an agent of its shareholders, it is potential that there is evidence of day to day control and that an agency relationship can be established on particular facts. It is, however, difficult to prove an agency relationship without express agreement. Somme guidance is provided in Smith, careen & Knight Ltd v Birmingham Corp 1939In order to maximize the amount of stipend, the parent company argued that the subsidiary carried on the stage business as its agent. It was held that whether there was an agency relationship was a question of fact in each case, such as who was actually carrying on the business, who received the profit, who was actually conducting the business and who was in good and constant control of the business. As the subsidiary was operating on behalf of the parent company the court lifted the Veil on the basis of the existence of an agency relationship. It can be argued that third is not a true exception to Salomon principle it is merely an instance where the normal agency principles applies.In the absent of an express agency agreement or the evidence of day to day control, it is very difficult to establish an agency relationship In Smith, Stone & Knight v Birmingham Corporation 1939 In Smith, Stone and Knight Ltd v Birmingham Corporation (1939) All ER 116, Atkinson J lifted the veil to enable a subsidiary company operating business on land owned by the holding company to claim compensation on the ground of agency. The parent company held almost all the shares in the subsidiary and profit of the subsidiary were enured as the profits of the parent was in effective con troll of the business and similarly the personnel who conducted the business and also appointed the personnelwho conducted the business.It was held that whether there was an agency relationship was a question o f fact in each case, such as who was really carrying on the business, who received the profit and who was in effective and constant control of the business. The veil was lifted in this case on the ground of any agency relationship. Although (a) hold all the shares in its subsidiary and all the profit flow back to it, there is no evidence of day to day control of an express agency agreement. It is therefore unlikely that the court would consider (b) as the agent of (a) (iii) view cape group as a single entity bingle economic Unit) Third, in relation to the debate on single economic unit, Lord Denning in DHN nutrition Distributors Ltd v Tower Hamlets LBC (1976)Argued that a group of companies was in reality a single economic entity and should be treaty as one. This view was disapproved by the House of Lords in Woolfson v Strathclyde Regional Council (1979)Which held that the Veil would be upheld unless it was a faade, In Adam v Cape held that, whether or not this is desirable, the rights to use a corporate structure in this manner inherent in our corporate law. The fundamental principle is that each company in a group of companies is a separate legal entity possessed of separate legal rights and liabilities. The Court, however, will ignore the distinction of particular statutory or contractual supplys, the meaning of which is disappointingly unclear. There is debate as whether the Veil can be lift in the interest of justice. This idea of lifting the corporate Veil in pursuit of justice was championed by Lord Denning in Wallesteiner v Moir 1974It is held in Adam v Cape that the Veil cannot be lifted merely in pursuit of justice. Another ground for lifting the Veil is where the Country is at war and it is in the Countrys interest to do so. Daimler v cathode-ray tube (1916) The application of this category is limited and it is more about politics than law. In addition to the examples at common law, the courts may lift the Veil and hold individuals shareholders or directors liable for the companys liabilities according to statutory provision. Section 761 of the companiesAct 2006, for example, reauires that the directors of a public limited company be jointly and severally liable to indemnify the other party in respect of any loss or damage suffered by reason of the company failure to comply with the provision that company should not trade before its registration. consort to section 213 of the insolvency Act 1986 on fraudulent trading, the Court may declare that any person, who carries on the business with the intention to defraud the company assets.Lord Diplock in Dimbleby v National Union of Journalists 1984States that the statutory provision must be in clear and unequivocal language The judicial approach towards lifting the corporate Veil is still unclear and lacks precise guidance despite the judgment in Adam v Cape. The Courts out to proceed on a case-by-case basis in deciding whether to lift the corporate Veil. The a couple of(pren ominal) number of examples at common law and in statute reflects the court reluctance to ignore the Salomon principle which are the openations of company law and have promoted the economic growth.This theory was first put forward by Lord Denning inin the case DHN Food v Distributors Ltd v Tower Hamlets (1976) who agreed that a group of companies was in reality a single economic entity, and should be treated as one the court was entitled to look at the realities of the situation to lift the corporate veil. The Court in Adam rejected the channel by stating that there was no general principle that all companies in a group of companies were to be regard as one.The fundamental principle is that each company in a group of companies is a separate legal entity with separate legal rights and liabilities. The disapproval of the single economic unit theory was confirmed in the case Ord v Belhaven Pub Ltd (1998) where the Court did not allow a plaintiff with a claimed against one subsidiary c ompany to substitute the parent company as defendant merely because the group might be a single economic units.Lord Denning in the Court of Appeal examined the major single economic units case where group structure were as single entity. It found that the case all involved the interpretation of the statute or a document. The Court reject the argument that cape was the group should be treat as one andconfirm the principle of Salomon.It can be argued, therefore, that the group structure of (b) and its subsidiaries is legitimate and it is very unlikely that the court will hold the parent liable on the ground of fraud, sham or mere faade.ConclusionsGiven the judicial reluctance to ignore the Salomon principles, it is highly unlikely that the court will hold (a) liable for the claims against (b) on the basis that the group structure is a mere faade, or there is an express agency relationship between them or that they should be treated as one economic unit

T-Pain Creating Auto-Tune App for iPhone
Published Feb 12, 2009It appears that the ultimate Auto-Tune crooner T-Pain is at work on an Auto-Tune application for the iPhone. In a recent interview with Time Magazine, the robot singer (born Faheem Rasheed Najm) revealed that he's working with Auto-Tune's parent company Antares to develop the app. "It's gonna be real cool," he said. "Basically, you can add Auto-Tune to your voice and send it to your friends and put it on the Web. You'll be able to sound just like me."
In a follow-up interview with the L.A. Times, Antares' chief operating officer Georganna Drayton clarified that the app will "use our [Antare's] software and T-Pain's beats so you can make music on the iPhone."
An official release date for the application hasn't been announced but one thing is for certain: Ben Gibbard is gonna be pissed.

Pun. n.s. [I know not whence this word is to be deduced: to pun, is to grind or beat with a pestle; can pun mean an empty sound, like that of a mortar beaten, as clench, the old word for pun seems only a corruption of clink?] An equivocation; a quibble; an expression where a word has at once different meanings.
It is not the word, but the figure that appears on the medal: cuniculus may stand for a rabbit or a mine, but the picture of a rabbit is not the picture of a mine: a pun can be no more engraven, than it can be translated. Addison.
But fill their purse, our poet's work is done,
Alike to them by pathos, or by pun. Pope.

Health Communication
Strategies for Developing Global Health Programs
Edited By Do Kyun Kim, Arvind Singhal and Gary L. Kreps
Taking a multi-disciplinary approach, the volume includes state-of-the-art theories that can be applied to health communication interventions and practical guidelines about how to design, implement, and evaluate effective health communication interventions.
Few books have synthesized such a broad range of theories and strategies of health communication that are applicable globally, and also provided clear advice about how to apply such strategies. This volume combines academic research and field experience, guided by past and future research agendas and on-the-ground implementation opportunities.
Chapter 14 Faith-based Community Health Interventions: Incorporating Cultural Ecology, the Social Ecological Framework, and Gender Analysis (Kari Hartwig, Walden University)
Faith-based Community Health
Interventions: Incorporating Cultural
Ecology, the Social Ecological
Framework, and Gender Analysis
Kari Hartwig, Walden University
Public health institutions and professionals and faith-based institutions such as churches, mosques, and temples have often been engaged in a masked, jittery dance with one another in the conduct of health promotion. In this dance, no touching is allowed and the hidden faces obscure the words and meanings of the other, heightening fears and suspicions. Often at the center of the distrust is who controls the message about the health problem and how it is delivered. Although there have been many alliances between public health, medicine and faith-based institutions over the decades, the HIV and AIDS epidemic launched a resurgence of interest in public health organizations reaching out to faith communities in efforts to promote supportive HIV prevention and care messages. Globally, most people identify themselves as having some faith or religious belief (For more details, check the website at http://www.religioustolerance.org/worldrel.htm). Acknowledging both the widespread reach of religious organizations to people living at the "grassroots" and the influence of religious leaders, public health organizations, governments, and foundations have significantly increased their outreach and funding to multiple religious-based institutions. In the United States (U.S.), there are increased examples of churches partnering with public health institutions in supporting church-led "Health Ministries" covering topics such as diabetes control and prevention; healthy, nutritious cooking; heart disease; exercise programs; and stress reduction (Campbell et al., 2007; Peterson, Atwood, & Yates, 2002). Further, there is increased attention to the use of prayer as a health communication mechanism in health...

Warfare in Six Dimensions
Last night's BBC Panorama report on elephant poaching described well the threat to the future of this beautiful animal, much loved for a gentle character to which humans easily relate, and while exposing in some detail the markets that fund the decline in its numbers, gave us little information on what is being done to defend it. Apart from the electronic tagging of the matriarchs that allows families to be tracked, there appeared to be nothing that is proactive, and the reactive measures seemed restricted to tracking poachers after a kill is discovered, plus intercepting the ivory tusks of the elephants their syndicates had killed.
The similarity between dead elephants in Africa and IEDs in Afghanistan drew attention to the parallels of the struggle against poachers and of the battle against insurgents, which, being in the fifth dimension, tend to remain unrecognised by campaign planners.
The fifth dimension? For a soldier there are six in all, although most attention is paid to the obvious first three: line ahead; line abreast; and the vertical which has been described as warfare's third dimension since Lanchester wrote his seminal "War in the Third Dimension" papers before the Great War. The fourth dimension is the Time-Morale continuum, and the sixth, dominant in Grand Strategy and potentially crucial at the strategic and operational levels, is Finance.
All these dimensions may be worth discussing in future blogs, but today the fifth dimension deserves a few words.
The headmaster of the village school I attended during the Second World War, a brave survivor of the Great War, was a devout Christian who numbered Colonel T.E. Lawrence among the Saints. He ensured that Lawrence of Arabia ranked in my mind with Biggles who, during the months leading to May 1940, was still knocking Fokker Triplanes out of the sky from his Sopwith Camel. Biggles has now gone where all good pilots eventually go, but Lawrence lives on here because, as Sir Basil Liddell-Hart predicted, he had written the field manual for future insurgents. Look at this:
"Rebellion must have an unassailable base, something guarded not merely from attack, but from the fear of it: such a base as the Arab Revolt had in the Red Sea ports, the desert, or in the minds of men converted to its creed. It must have a sophisticated alien enemy in the form of a disciplined army of occupation too small to fulfil the doctrine of acreage, too few to adjust number to space in order to dominate the whole area effectively from fortified posts. It must have a friendly population, not actively friendly, but sympathetic to the point of not betraying rebel movements to the enemy. Rebellions can be made by 2% active in a striking force, and 98% passively sympathetic."
The Taliban's unassailable base is the territory just across the Pakistan border and, additionally, sections of desert plus the Muslim religion onto which the Islamist creed can be added. The Americans are the sophisticated alien enemy that forms the disciplined army of occupation too small to fulfil the doctrine of acreage, too few to adjust number to space in order to dominate the whole area effectively from fortified posts, and for this the British qualify too. The friendly population, not actively friendly, but sympathetic, is, to use Mao's words, the sea into which the fish disappear – but in the six-dimension analysis this is the portal to the fifth dimension into which the insurgents disappear and emerge at will.
"The few active rebels must have the qualities of speed and endurance, ubiquity and independence of arteries of supply. They must have the technical equipment to destroy or paralyze the enemy's organised communications, for irregular war is fairly Willisen's definition of strategy "the study of communication" in its extreme degree, of attack where the enemy is not. In 50 words: Granted mobility, security (in the form of denying targets to the enemy), time and doctrine (the idea to convert every subject to friendliness), victory will rest with the insurgents, for the algebraical factors are in the end decisive, and against them the perfections of means and spirit struggle quite in vain."
The Taliban's Toyota pick-ups and Honda motorcycles are not speedy, certainly not as speedy as the supersonic Tornados used to frighten them (as when in 2010 the engine noise scared a rocket team away from its firing position © MoD), but that is irrelevant. Their speed is OODA speed (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act) which in a firefight may be 20 to 40 seconds compared with a typical NATO equivalent of 2 to 40 minutes. (Many reports published in the US indicate that the response sought from air support may be much longer than this.) Of endurance we may note that whenever the Taliban feel they are being stretched they retire to refresh themselves, and then return. Their view of the fourth dimension is very different from ours. The Taliban exploitation of the fifth dimension allows ubiquity and facilitates their popping up all over the place whenever they wish.
The independence of arteries of supply and their importance to the Taliban is best illustrated by the porous nature of the Pakistan border – which ought to have been closed, as General Petraeus recognised, and could have been closed inexpensively with intelligent use of the third dimension integrated with a routine use of the first and second. The freedom to retire for rest and recreation (R&R), and then to return refreshed, to resupply the ammunition stocks and, of crucial importance, increasingly to import the ammonium nitrate used now and for the foreseeable future in substantially more powerful IEDs, is of immense importance to the Taliban for morale and tactical effectiveness. Together with the freedom of the night, unnecessarily surrendered to this agile enemy at the beginning of the campaign, the free movement across the border has contributed directly to hundreds of deaths among the allied troops.
NATO's principal difficulty in Afghanistan appears to have been its inability to cope with area warfare. For the half-century following the Second World War the emphasis has been on linear warfare of short duration, and the problems described by Lawrence have been quite alien to staff thinking. That was why the Panorama programme was of such interest – the poachers could make a kill, detach the tusks, bury them with their rifles, wash their hands, and then disappear for a few days into the fifth dimension, the general population from which they are indistinguishable. When they, the poachers and the insurgents, may choose to operate anywhere in areas thousands of square miles in size, popping in and out of the fifth dimension as and when they wish, how can the defending forces be proactive?
Wisdom comes with the knowledge that they, the soldiers and the wardens of elephants and rhinos (whose horns are more valuable than gold) are going to lose unless they are willing to abandon doctrine based on a European war or, in the case of the wardens, abstain from futile gestures restricted by the lack of finance and, of course, by government disinterest.
Both soldiers and wardens must accept that what are described here as dimensions are not individual departments. Finance, the sixth dimension, is not separate from the third dimension, nor is Time-Morale separate from the fifth dimension. The counter-insurgency and anti-poaching battles are inside a conventional die of six faces – despite widespread behaviour based on contrary beliefs, behaviour which has, for example, tried to separate Intelligence-Surveillance-Reconnaissance (ISR-gathering) assets from their direct use by Troops-in-Contact (TIC).
Among the consequences of the refusal to accept the integration of the six dimensions in the die, the BattleCube, is the retention of ISR-gathering assets by higher formations, as generals' toys instead of lieutenants' tools, and then the further consequence has been the competition to have evermore advanced and unnecessarily sophisticated ISR-gathering assets such as, for the UK, the Reapers. Now the Reapers, £10+ million drones (UAVs), when they are serviceable and there is sufficient money in the monthly budget to allow them to fly, have done some clever work, but they are few in number and the battle area is huge – and they are rarely of use to the platoon caught in an ambush. (In a later blog I shall give some statistics to show how expensive their inadequate performance has been.)
This full integration of the six dimensions will improve the proper use of Intelligence, but its full exploitation requires air power adequate for area warfare. That means very large numbers and, locked into the sixth dimension, Finance. Thus it means also at a low cost relative to the linear warfare aircraft currently in use in Afghanistan (Tornado £33,000 per hour; Apache £46,000 per hour; Typhoon, if it ever gets there, projected at £85,000 per hour).
When Lawrence wrote: "the algebraical factors are in the end decisive, and against them the perfections of means and spirit struggle quite in vain" he was describing area warfare of the type we are fighting in Afghanistan and the wardens in Africa. We must learn from him as the insurgents have learned.

As told by Matthew Goodison-Orr
The morning of March 23rd was clear, with a promise to be sunny. The temperatures promised a beautiful Spring day. At Brook Run Skate Park, tables and chairs were being set up, pens and clipboards put out, signs erected. The music started to fill the air. Sesame: The Contest was being held. This would be the 5th contest in the series hosted by Christian "Drizzy" Hanna. Soon, the skaters would roll up to the tables to sign up for the beginner or advanced divisions. Drizzy is busy filming a few of the skaters for the highlight video shown here. The skaters are warming up and practicing their tricks while sizing up their competition. And then Drizzy slowly skates out, megaphone in hand, and announces the start of the contest. Immediately the park clears out, he thanks everyone for coming and calls out the first 3 names.
Everyone is supportive of the skaters and their attempts. The air is energetic. At the end of the beginner's event, everyone returns to skating at will and the free Jamaican patties, which seem to have become a staple at these contests, are given out. Again, Drizzy films the advanced skaters as they all try to get in front of the camera, hoping to get a feature in the highlight reel. At the end of the advanced division, the smiles and the "thank you's" are abundant as Drizzy tried to exit the park.
Sesame contests have become known for giving beginners and advanced skaters an opportunity to show their talents to the local community and win prizes. The venue for the March 23rd contest had to be changed at the last minute to Brook Run Skate Park and, even with that inconvenience, skaters turned out in their numbers to compete and have a good time. The beginners ranged in ability from the first-time entrant to those who had competed before. Both divisions have 3 winners. The format is 3-man jams. With past Sesame contests having prizes as big as a free "Damn Am" Entry, Drizzy plans to continue to give local skaters this huge opportunity to get their name out there in future contests.
Who is Christian "Drizzy" Hanna? Drizzy, as he as known to most skaters, is a motivated skater who wants to keep skateboarding at the forefront of the local eye of Atlanta. He holds contests around the Atlanta area and this year plans to take the Sesame brand to other states. First up, Utah! Plans are underway for Tennessee and Michigan. In his spare time, he films and edits video to promote local skaters and himself. He has recently dropped a video part called "Sweet Tooth" which has been featured on the Ambush YouTube Channel.
What is Sesame exactly? Sesame is a community dedicated to hype and positivity into the skateboard community one day at a time. The entire Sesame brand centers entirely on the world of skateboarding. The Sesame brand also features a clothing line. New attire is usually launched in Spring and Fall. The 2019 Spring line will be available in April.
