AM Best Affirms Credit Ratings of Global Indemnity Limited and Its Subsidiaries
Additionally, AM Best has affirmed the Long-Term Issue Credit Rating (Long-Term IR) of "bbb-" on Global Indemnity's $100 million 7.75% subordinated notes offering due 2045, and the $130 million 7.875% subordinated note offering due 2047, as well as the indicative Long-Term IRs on its shelf registration of "bbb" on senior unsecured debt, "bbb-" on subordinated unsecured debt and "bb+" on the preferred stock. The outlook of these Credit Ratings (ratings) remains stable. (See below for a detailed listing of the companies.)
The ratings reflect Global Indemnity Re's balance sheet strength, which AM Best categorizes as strongest, as well as its adequate operating performance, neutral business profile and appropriate enterprise risk management.
The balance sheet strength assessment is based on Global Indemnity Re's Best's Capital Adequacy Ratio (BCAR) score at the strongest level, supported by a conservative investment portfolio, conservative reserving practices and added financial flexibility through its access to the capital markets. Through its six member intercompany pool, the group targets a diverse mix of specialty niche business that is not offered generally in the standard insurance marketplace. Each company serves a specific market or distribution channel, which provides the group access to a substantial amount of commercial and personal lines business in the United States. U.S.-sourced business accounts for the largest share of the group's revenues.
The group's operating earnings have performed generally in line with its peers over the past five years, although catastrophe losses dampened its earnings in 2017 and 2018. The group recently made significant progress in reducing its catastrophe exposures drastically. Results for the first nine months of 2019 indicate that the group's earnings have bounced back to historic levels. AM Best believes that the group's continuing efforts to improve underwriting and reduce catastrophe exposure should reduce earnings volatility going forward.
Positive rating actions could occur if the company can demonstrate sustainable fundamental operating results at levels that exceed those of its peers while maintaining balance sheet strength at the strongest level. Downward pressure on the ratings or outlooks could result if there is material deterioration in the organization's risk-adjusted capital or a significant decline in underwriting and operating performance, brought on by aggregate catastrophe losses, significant unanticipated loss reserve development, a sudden shift in the group's business strategy or the loss of a major distribution partner.
The FSR of A (Excellent) and the Long-Term ICRs of "a" have been affirmed with stable outlooks for Global Indemnity Reinsurance Company, Ltd. and its following subsidiaries:
This press release relates to Credit Ratings that have been published on AM Best's website. For all rating information relating to the release and pertinent disclosures, including details of the office responsible for issuing each of the individual ratings referenced in this release, please see AM Best's Recent Rating Activity web page.

W. Bball falls to 5th in playoff race after loss to Geneseoby Panagiotis Argitis
An unbeaten streak of five games was broken this weekend as The College at Brockport women's basketball team fell to the division leader and conference undefeated giants, the Geneseo Knights.
Geneseo has absolutely dominated competition this season, failing to lose any of its games at home, while carrying a conference record of 14—0. The team's ridiculous average of 70.8 points per game has proven to be too much for opposition, as every team Geneseo has faced this season has completely crumbled under the constant threat of the team's ability to shoot the ball.
Similar to other teams in the conference, the Golden Eagles were fully aware of what they were getting themselves into, and it wasn't pretty. The match between Brockport and Geneseo took place this past weekend, on Saturday, Feb. 3, at Geneseo. While Brockport played great basketball, displaying team chemistry and good sharing of the ball, the Geneseo Knights' field goal percentage of 51 (which, surprisingly enough, is considered to be a low number under their standard) gave them full control of the game from the get-go.
Brockport struggled to keep up with Geneseo's firepower throughout the duration of both halves, and the team's shooting numbers prove it. Brockport almost shot a complete 20 points less from the field than Geneseo, with 33.9 percent compared to Geneseo's 51 percent. On the other hand, Brockport's intensity never came to a stop as the team forced 15 turnovers, scoring on nearly half of those. At the end of the contest, Geneseo snatched a victory of 82 to 56 with ease, giving Brockport its sixth loss in the conference, leaving them with a conference record of 8—6.
Despite their unfortunate loss to Geneseo, the Golden Eagles have enjoyed a great run of form during these past weeks, but the climb to getting a spot in this season's SUNYAC tournament is long and steep. The team is currently in fifth place in the SUNYAC playoff standings. With that said, the team will be keen to come away with wins during next weekend's fixtures against Oneonta and New Paltz in order to clinch a place in the tournament.
"While Oneonta slows the tempo down, New Paltz plays fast," head coach Corinne Jones said. "We will be focusing on us this week and what we need to do to be successful this weekend. We will stay focused on what we can control and stay motivated to reach our vision of top four in the SUNYAC."
The team's winning streak of five straight was an excellent example of what the team is capable of when its chemistry is running at full pace, and its defensive solidity will only get better with time. With the vision of reaching the top four in the SUNYAC before the tournament selection starts taking shape, lessons learned from past fixtures like Geneseo will be vital in reaching that top four benchmark.
"We need to stay determined and take one game at a time while having fun in order to get into the tournament," freshman point guard Zaria Mccullough said. "As coach Jones always says, we need to trust the process. If we do so we will be successful."
The Golden Eagles will be coming up against Oneonta on Friday, Feb. 9, at 5:30 p.m. and New Paltz on Saturday, Feb. 10, at 1 p.m.

Necessity, they say is the mother of invention. No doubt. But I will go a step further. Technology is the mother of necessity. For example, I wonder if my great-grandfather spent the entire summer (without even a fan) sweating or dying of heat stroke. But today you and I would find it difficult to imagine even a single afternoon without air conditioning. Or for that matter how
Let me hasten to add that there are quite a few things where technology has facilitated a perceptibly positive change, where there are hardly any disadvantages and even if so, the benefits far outnumber them. One such is the emergence of Virtual Office – a product of technological innovation and the coming of Information Age. Simply defined, it is a
It is indeed interesting to explore the evolution of this concept. When telephones became common, physical meetings came down. With Skype and Video chats came within the reach of the common man, the need for physical meeting almost vanished. The logic was simple, if you have to see or talk to a person, it is not necessary to do it physically and people readily took to it as it meant substantial saving in the effort, time and money. The concept of Virtual Office is quite similar. You don't have to own or rent physical office space to run an office!
Say you have the need for
- Business address (in a prime area)
- Business telephone number
- Receptionist to handle incoming calls
- Dedicated mail management to send/ receive/ reply/ forward messages
The virtual office offers all these with a high degree of efficiency.
You also want a trained, professional team who can actually represent your business and pass on the leads to you? Yes, a virtual office can provide this too.
Suppose there are a few occasions when you actually might need a physical meeting room. No problem, many virtual offices do provide well-appointed meeting rooms, which can be rented by the hour. Not just that they can also provide secretarial and catering assistance too. As people express more needs, I am sure, the virtual offices will quickly add more to their basket of offerings.
No wonder the concept of virtual offices is fast catching up. So much so that, It is no longer a question of "Why a Virtual Office?" It is more often "why NOT a Virtual Office?"

Man-Up and admit that real men cry
So, gentlemen, cry. Let go of your anger sometimes. Release your stress. Feel empty.
Man-Up – a term synonymous to 'cutting down on the whining' or 'keeping quiet when getting hurt' or 'not crying in the face of adversity'. How often is it that we hear this term by people in our lives, telling a child to 'man up' when he gets hurt and complains about it in the school playground, or telling a kid to 'man up' when he cries after finding out that his younger brother had eaten his last remaining chocolate bar, or telling a tearful football player to 'man up' when his team loses a game?
"Boys don't cry!" is often heard by boys from the day they start understanding basic human lingo. It has long been thought that crying, or showing emotions in times of grief and sorrow, is a sign of weakness, and against the society's idea of masculinity. These traits are normally, yet wrongly, associated exclusively with the female gender. Females have long been portrayed as the weaker gender, which gives them the freedom to openly express grief, whereas males have long been taught to suppress their emotions, especially when these emotions are driven by sorrow.
Let's just get one thing straight here – every human being cries. It is a normal, biological process and it happens as an uncontrolled response. It is the first thing every human does right after birth. If anything, a crying baby represents a healthy, breathing piece of human life. So why is it that something that represents something as valuable as life itself, somehow represents 'weakness' in a man?
Stereotypes of the gender are developed and then reinforced by our daily dosage of media, mainly the social aspect of it, and by our social interactions, where our cultural norms supersede, and often cloud, our own logical judgments. It is for this matter that the supposed differences between the male and female genders are either over-generalised or are over-exaggerated, which explains how we are subconsciously likelier to focus on evidence that supports and solidifies our own gender stereotypes. Such societal pressure forces men to suppress their feelings – despite feeling strongly emotional towards certain situations, especially the ones where grief is involved.
So, what should men do exactly? The answer is simple – express themselves openly. Embrace their feelings and cry when they want to. Sometimes they might be too embarrassed to cry, but they should be comfortable with themselves and, for once, not worry about others' opinions and perceptions about their self-expression.
If anything, crying is highly beneficial for the human body. When a man suppresses his natural instinct to cry, emotions that would have otherwise been expressed through tears are bottled up inside, allowing for adverse effects on the body as opposed to the body's response if those feelings had found a corporal outlet. The accumulation of these 'bottled' emotions can lead to serious health issues later in life – including high blood pressure and suffering from severe anxiety.
So, gentlemen, cry. Let go of your anger sometimes. Release your stress. Feel empty. Cry openly if you want to. Cry by yourself if need be. But don't ever let anyone tell you to 'man up' and not cry, for real men don't hide their emotions. Real men cry.

'No Wonder ESPN Ratings Have Tanked': Trump Targets Jemele Hill On Twitter
Donald Trump directed a tweet at Jemele Hill on Tuesday morning following ESPN's announcement that they were suspending the sports journalist for violating their social media guidelines.
READ: ESPN Suspends Jemele Hill For Social Media 'Violation'
"With Jemele Hill at the mike, it is no wonder ESPN ratings have 'tanked,' in fact, tanked so badly it is the talk of the industry!" Trump tweeted.

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 10, 2017
Prior to that, Trump had also called out the NFL on Twitter, writing the following: "Why is the NFL getting massive tax breaks while at the same time disrespecting our Anthem, Flag, and Country? Change tax law!"

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 10, 2017
Hill had called Trump a white supremacist back in September on Twitter, saying that he has "surrounded himself w/ other white supremacists" and is "the most ignorant, offensive president of my lifetime. His rise is a direct result of white supremacy. Period."
ESPN ended up condemning Hill's statements, with the sports journalist apologizing for her remarks. "Twitter wasn't the place to vent my frustrations," Hill said in a short essay for The Undefeated.
Now, Hill faces a two-week suspension from ESPN after she suggested an advertiser boycott of the Dallas Cowboys following Jerry Jones' announcement that he would punish football players who kneeled during the national anthem.
"Jemele Hill has been suspended for two weeks for a second violation of our social media guidelines. She previously acknowledged letting her colleagues and company down with an impulsive tweet," ESPN said in a statement. "In the aftermath, all employees were reminded of how individual tweets may reflect negatively on ESPN and that such actions would have consequences. Hence this decision."

Wednesday, March 24, 2010 - Article by: EdtheLoanGuy - My Home Loan Help -
Well, here it is, the government has passed National Healthcare Reform and the new legislation will have a far reaching effect, including your mortgage.
WHAT???? How on earth will this impact my mortgage, that has nothing to do with Healthcare??
There are 2 reasons the Healthcare passage could affect your mortgage. 1st with the passage of healthcare reform, stock markets are going to resp0nd. Currently the stock market has reponded favorably and many health related stocks have seen nice improvements. Well typically when stocks are doing well, it means bonds are not performing as well. Since mortgage rates are tied to the performance of bond sales they will fluctuate with the movement of the stock market.
It works like this, when stocks are doing well, investors will pull their money out of bond to invest in the stock market. When the bonds go down, mortgage companies are not getting as much for their money, so in turn they will raise the interest rates to maintain their operating cost margin. Conversely, when the stock market is doing poorly, you will typically an increased demand for bonds and their value goes up; so the mortgage companies will pass some of that savings onto Borrwers in the form of lower interest rates.
So, as the kinks are worked out in the new healthcare bill, you will see many days of stock increases or decreases based on the decisions lawmakers agree upon. That is going to make the market very manic some days, with drastic ups and downs.
The 2nd way healthcare will affect your mortgage is through inflation. Regardless if you agree with healthcare reform or not, both sides will agree to the likelihood of inflation over the next few years. (I'm not saying Healthcare will be the sole reason for inflation, but it will be a part of it) Anytime the government spends money it eventually leads to inflation.
Why?? Lets use an example, say you had a rare gem, very few in the world and you looked to sell it. You should be able to sell it at a very high price because there not many around. Now if someone found 1 million of those same gems in a cave and put them all up for sale, would you still expect to receive the same value for your gem??? Of course not, because now there are a lot of them so that will drive the value down. The same is true for the dollar, when we are not running at a deficit and not spending trillions of dollars the value of the dollar is seen as strong and it will keep its value. once you saturate the market with phantom money, they will become devalued (much like bonds) and they have less purchase power. Investors and Retail Sales shops will need to raise their prices because your $100 isn't worth as much as it was before.
Likewise mortgage companies will not be able to service your loan and maintain their cost margins at the same rates, so they will be forced to raise their rates accordingly. When rates go up, payments go up, when payments go up people cant buy as much and when buying power goes down, values will stagnate (not go up) or they will decrease to adjust to the market.
So what should I do??? Good Question, I would start by getting into a Mortgage that is Fixed for the next 15 or 30 years. Adjustable Rate Mortgages, will become very risky over the next 5-7 years, because of the uncertain future (unless you have an action plan to only be in the house for a few year, and you are willing to take on that risk). Also, make sure you have enough money stashed away to weather a storm, 6 mos of your total bills is a good safety net.
We all need to be wise right now while we are in the calm and prepare for what's coming. I would be happy to answer any questions, you can either join into a discussion, email me email@example.com , or give me a calll if you want to discuss your options further 303-800-2760

Here's a great article about the call for tough rules on financial instruments. The sub prime has done us a great favor, it highlighted the problems with our financial institutions in a way you can't hide. Take the credit score for example, how many people actually know how this thing works? Very few, the company that created it, Fair Isaac, doesn't share how it calculates your score and it is left to only a few who know the real magic to it. And that's what it is, we are no different than people 2,000 years ago going to wizards and oracles for advice, the credit score is no different.
Here's how, in the old days, a leader would consult a wizard who was the only one who know the mysteries of their trade. Today our financial institutions consult the credit score by Fair Isaac of which only they know the mysteries of the credit score. I think we should have the employees over there wear robs and long pointed hats, kind of go all out. But lets not just pick on the credit score, there are a lot of other tools out there fall into this category or similar category. A call for tighter financial watch dogging is a very good idea, that is, as long as the watch dogs are truly watching and truly doing their job to protect, not just another window dressing program while it is business as usual behind closed doors.

A Roman Samian Ware cup (Dragendorff 33).
Samian Ware (Terra Sigillata) was the fine tableware of Roman Britain and much of the northern Roman Empire. It was mass-produced under factory conditions and the finished pieces often had a manufacturer's stamp which provides excellent information about its distribution and dating.
The precursor to Samian Ware was "Arretine Ware" named after the region of Arretium (modern Arezzo) in Italy where it was first produced.
Most Samian Ware found in Britain was originally imported from Gaulish factories. The word Samian probably derives from the Greek island of Samos because this style of pottery originated there. In Britain, some native Samian forms were produced at Pulborough (Sussex), Colchester (Essex) and also possibly London during the second century AD. The product from British Potteries is of a lower quality than Gaulish examples.
Condition: Foot missing.
Provenance: Ex. Private collection Germany. Purchased at auction.

What do you want to get out of your home renovation?
Due to the recent mortgage rule changes and the upcoming HST we are seeing a large upsurge in properties for sale and consequently sold on the market in the GTA. This seems to be a good time to talk about motivations to renovate on a larger scale. We are not talking about renovations such as painting or refinishing the floors to personalize the space or mandatory ones such as electrical rewiring due to existing knob and tube wiring – we are talking about the larger renovations that will increase your property value.links:
The timing and motivation of these renovations really depends on the length of time you want to stay in the house.
Let's say you want to live in the house for about 5 years, i.e. relatively short term. In this case it would be best to add bathrooms and powder rooms, do kitchen makeovers or add extra bedrooms and open concepts, before you move in. As even the best renovation processes are disruptive, can be lengthy and somewhat stressful, it is best to tackle them before you get too comfortable. By the time you want to sell the house again your home has increased in value, you had the benefit of a great and comfortable space to live in for the better part of 5 years and therefore your return on investment should be very favorable.
The best time to get a designer in to prepare for the renovation is even before you close on the sale. Hence you could have your building permit drawings ready to submit just after the property is yours.
New windows, external cladding, even basement renovations could be done after you moved in as they are often less disruptive. These renovations still give good value, but less than the major renovations listed above.
On the opposite scale in case you want to live in the house for a very long time, then it will be best to live in the house for a year or so to see and plan your renovation with great care. In this case you are designing and renovating exclusively for yourself and the increase in property value is nice, but secondary. Yes, your renovation will be disruptive just after you got comfortable in your new home, but taking the time to plan the renovation you want will give you a lot more satisfaction in the long run.

The Kremlin's ban on many imported foods from the European Union, the United States and a number of other Western countries is reported to be already pushing up prices in Russian shops.
Local officials said pork was up by six percent in Moscow supermarkets since the self-imposed food sanctions took effect on August 7. Fish, milk and cheese prices have also risen.
Elsewhere even bigger jumps have been recorded, with chicken pieces reportedly costing 60 percent more on the island of Sakhalin.
The one-year ban is in retaliation for Western sanctions on Moscow over the Ukraine crisis.
The prime minister's office is promising that alternative sources will be available soon.
Russia previously imported half the fish, milk, beef and cheese consumed there.

Man allegedly stole '10 Ton Weight Limit' sign
Deputy Sheriff James Stasiak was dispatched last Sunday to the area of Canopus Hollow Road about 4:15 p.m. after a nearby resident saw a man stealing the sign and wrote down his car's license plate number, police said.
Stasiak traced the plate number to William D. Munsell, 18, a Putnam Valley resident, according to police. Stasiak questioned Munsell, who admitted taking the sign "as a joke" and throwing it away by the roadside, police said.
Stasiak then arrested Munsell on a charge of petit larceny. He was released on his own recognizance pending a Jan. 29 court date.

The World of Warcraft subscription usually refers to automatic monthly periods to access World of Warcraft. Subscribing from the Blizzard Shop can be done in increments of 30 days, 3 months, or 6 months. However, the payments will go through automatically instead of having to do it manually like game time.
Having a subscription or game time allows access to the retail servers up to Legion content (unless Battle for Azeroth is owned) and World of Warcraft: Classic.

So, it's been a while, in terms of how frequent my updates have been. I want to say that while I have made a ton of progress, the process of research is equivalent to hitting yourself in the face multiple times, each time expecting a different outcome other than pain. I know — sounds brutal, huh? Why would anyone do this? I honestly have no clue. It is important to have research that you like. People say that for a reason. If it wasn't for something I was not particularly passionate about, I would not be doing this, but the motivation that I am contributing to something important, as paramount as civil liberties guaranteed by our constitution, makes me continue to research, peruse, and seek out knowledge about this topic, even though it can be painstakingly frustrating.
In the past couple of months since my last blog post, I have written three chapters, albeit some a bit more coherent than others, and have made progress on my maps in Tableau, a data visualization tool that is able to show maps and the evolution of districts along with their respective demographics, with the help of two very gifted librarians, Sarah and Emma.
Granted thesis is independent work, but no one does it alone. I think that was, albeit a bit ironically, what I've learned and grown to understand in my thesis work. I would not be here without the help of Geoff, my advisor, Emma and Sarah, the best of the best CMU librarians, Karen, the Pitt Law librarian, my mom — wow, this turned into an Oscar speech real quick. Anyways, the acknowledgment section of the thesis is going to be interesting, and also the rest of the thesis, the thing I set out to do, about gerrymandering and minority-majority districts, and ensuring the constitutional right to free and fair elections where one person is entitled to one fair vote. Now, to go back to proofreading these chapters!

If you're into discovering new bio-hacks for enhancing your overall health, Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALCAR) supplements will come in handy. It's a mitochondrial boosting formula that enhances mood, accelerates learning and sharpens memory. Not just that, it helps the muscle mitochondria burn fat and build more muscle. Not only is this a miracle for gym-goers but also an excellent tip for those who want to increase their endurance and speed up recovery.
With the proper dosage, Acetyl L-Carnitine can perform as an effective muscle-building supplement and even a staple in daily routine. It's as valuable for bodybuilding as it is for powering your brain.
Read on to find out more about Acetyl L-Carnitine and how it helps build muscle.
What is Acetyl L-Carnitine
It's a naturally-occurring amino acid that generates energy in your body. Even though your body produces it itself, dietary supplements can also be taken to give your energy reserves a boost. Animal protein contains Acetyl L-Carnitine and so eating red meat helps stock up on ALCAR. It's popular among many communities of people because of their potential benefits.
Benefits of Acetyl L-Carnitine
ALCAR is particularly beneficial for mitochondrial function. Muscle building and cognition. Since your mitochondria is the power house of the cell, this supplement helps burn fat and generate more energy which powers the brain and promotes muscle strength.
Boosts Brain Health
ALCAR is specifically known as an anti-aging Nootropic also known as a smart drug. This entails that the compound is responsible for your smarts and aids cognitive functioning for better performance. It's able to successfully permeate the blood-brain barrier and reach the nerves. This way it directly impacts your mood, memory, and other determinants of brain power.
This is not only helpful for easing mental functions but also pushing towards greater physical activity as it promotes the motto: 'mind over muscle'. Since you require both stamina and will power to get through a gym routine, this takes care of the latter.
Burns Fat and Builds Muscle
Fatty acids shuttle fuel to the muscle mitochondria which energizes the system for more physical exertion. This largely enhances your endurance and revamps your metabolic system. With energy centers brimming with greater energy, the muscle metabolic system benefits from it as well.
This works miracles for older groups of individuals who want to build muscle as it reduces muscle fatigue and triggers fat loss. Resistance-trained gym goers have reported a significant increase in power-driven physical output paired with lesser lactate which causes burning in the muscles.
Boosts Testosterone
After taking a dose of Acetyl L-Carnitine, there's a greater density of hormone receptors in the muscles. This goes a long way in improving your testosterone uptake. This must not be confused with a greater intake of the hormone! ALCAR doesn't inject more testosterone into the system but makes the hormone receptors more proactive so they use the existing testosterone reserves efficiently.
Blue Brain Boost offers health supplements to a community of people who prefer herbal/natural extracts for improving their overall health. You can buy Acetyl L-Carnitine capsules online from our store. We deliver shipments locally and internationally.


text: Russia estimates Belarusian gas debt to be approximately $550 million, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich said Saturday. "In our opinion, Belarusian gas debt to Russia stands at about $550 million. That's according to our estimates," Dvorkovich said, Sputnik reported. Earlier in the day, Dvorkovich said that the talks on the gas dispute resolution were ongoing with Russia demanding that Minsk pay its debt according to the initial formula. Russia and Belarus have been in talks over the price of Russian gas deliveries to Belarus for months. In November 2016, Russia said Belarus owed it $281 million for gas, with Minsk refusing to recognize the debt. Belarus had initially bargained for $73 per 1,000 cubic meters of gas instead of $132, which it considered unfair. Russia and Belarus have been discussing a possible change to the pricing formula. "They want a revision of the formula which is set out in the existing agreement, taking into account that the situation in oil markets has seriously changed prices for gas in the whole world," Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said.

The US painter Nathaniel Mary Quinn has developed a distinct technique of fragmentating images to unearth the multiple identities of his subjects. This is his first exhibition in Brussels.
A contorted mouth, an eye coming loose, a nose being squashed, an ear coming unstuck. Nathaniel Mary Quinn's portraits are at first unsettling, and then enchanting. What might appear to the inobservant eye to be a Dadaist collage is in fact entirely executed on paper or canvas. The artist juxtaposes different elements of disparate faces, and he does the same with techniques, working in a combination of charcoal, pastels, and oil and gouache paint, each of which add a texture and feel of their own.
Today more than ever, the media love stories. With Nathaniel Mary Quinn, they have a good one. Born into a poor family in an impoverished Chicago neighbourhood, he received a scholarship to a private school in Indiana thanks to his precocious gift for drawing. At the age of fifteen, he had to cope with the death of his mother and with losing touch with the rest of his family, but he persevered.
In an article for Vogue following the success of his first London exhibition, he explained how his particular technique came to him in a vision. Instinctively piecing together fragments of images, he realised, on taking a step back, that he had painted a portrait of his brother Charles, whom he had not seen for years.
The series of works on display at Almine Rech were completed in a few months in Paris, far from his home base of New York, but that didn't change the nature of his work. When he is working, Nathaniel Mary Quinn surrounds himself with images which he cuts out of magazines and newspapers or finds on the Internet. When he is composing his portraits, he doesn't think, he says: he feels.
He thinks only of the forms, composition, colours, and balance. In this human patchwork, all types of features and skin colours are mixed together like the fragments of a buried identity rising to the surface. Alongside his many works on paper, he also presents a few oils on canvas, in a larger format, in which the faces have a body dressed up in accessories like at the theatre. A Renaissance hat here, a fur shawl there, like a homage to art history.
Channelling the ghosts of Picasso, Bacon, and Rubens as if diffracted through the prism of a kaleidoscope. Sometimes almost grotesque, Nathaniel Mary Quinn's compositions are never aggressive. They maintain a certain distance, even though, at the centre of the jigsaw puzzle of colours and materials, there is often an eye, staring out at you to draw you back into the image.
NATHANIEL MARY QUINN: ALWATS FELT, RARELY SEEN > 13/4, Almine Rech

I am very interested in attending your master class but I am unable to find how much it costs.
I am very interest in attending this! I have downloaded the registration form however can not find out how much it costs to register.
please let me know
Hi, I received an invite to the SS Master Class and have approached my managers in the ACT re the possibility of attending. I just have a query re my eligibility to attend as I completed the 5 day Stronger Smarter Facilitator Training in Cherbourg and follow up in 2011 or 12 -however I have not attended the Leadership Training as such – are these different?
I currently work as a School Leader C in the ACT directorate in a consultancy role and would relish the opportunity of a Stronger Smarter Project to make a difference in my work place here. Can you please let me know about eligibility ASAP as my managers are looking to approve my attendance in the coming week? Thanks Jude
Will you be running more of these sessions, possibly in Vicotria?
Will there be another Master Class in 2018?
Kylie Greatbatch attended the recent Master Class in Nov…she highly recommended the PL and I am very interested in attending.

The build up of Early Classic Enterprises' latest project truck is in full swing, and this month we are following along as Project Heavy Hauler gets new rear sheetmetal. For those who are new to this project, we've been following along as the crew at ECE has taken this well-worn '71 Chevy C20 camper special and installed a new 3/4-to 1/2-ton conversion suspension and rear air spring setup. Along the way, the crew has also cut down the longbed chassis to shortbed dimensions, and installed one of the company's new stainless rear fuel tanks.
This month, we'll cover the assembly and installation of ECE's new reproduction shortbed kit on Project Heavy Hauler.

Since I'm friends with them now, they were going to stop by and say hi to ya'll but... You guys did not make a good first impression.. I told you I was taking this racist anti-ogre business straight to the top.this was their introduction to OTWDF...Both Dave and Melissa were watching as you banned me again for saying hi and getting told to kill myself. I explained this happens with all new members here such as myself, said you guys were just joking but they didn't think it was funny. They said they don't have time to waste meeting "some rude degenerates on the internet" well that was Lee's words but I told them you all were great. They felt bad and let me sit with them for a while and signed my Sonic 2 poster.Anyways, I guess the moral of this story is not to confuse a troll with an ogre, or an ogre with a brogre in this case. Sorry fellas Melissa was really close to making an account to say hi real quick too before ya'll acted out and now it's too late. Maybe if you unban me again I can get them to change their minds. </3 What you think?

Cravings are one of the common symptoms we get when that time of the month arrives. Along with fatigue, irritability, skin breakouts and cramps – oh the joy. The sometimes erratic rise and fall in oestrogen leading up to your period lowers your serotonin and dopamine, the feel good hormones. This can explain the low mood and the increased sugar cravings. Progesterone, the counterbalance to oestrogen, may also drop too quickly leaving you with heightened feelings of stress. And for many of us an increase in stress is an increase in late night chocolate and dairy-free ice cream.
However trying to deal with these cravings with refined sugar, simple carbohydrates and processed dairy will only lead to an eruption of inflammation. This outbreak of inflammation will further exacerbate the drop in progesterone and impair the stabilising of oestrogen. So in fact what we thought were "cures" for PMS only make it worse. This time round stop the junk food fix and reduce your non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug use and try these healthy alternatives instead.
These healthy swaps will help manage your inflammation and balance out your hormone levels. Making the lead up to your period a whole lot easier, and less scary for everyone else.
Are you stocking up on the blocks of chocolate?
Let's get into one of the most common cravings, sugar, in particular chocolate. Also known as 'the love drug', chocolate is often the main culprit and for good reason. Chocolate contains chemical compounds that send positive messages to the brain and body, leaving us feeling euphoric. Additionally, chocolate is high in magnesium which can help relieve PMS symptoms of headaches, irritability, mood swings and cramps.
Before you get all excited and reach for another block of Cadbury, there are some other things to consider. Most commercial chocolate is made from cocoa instead of cacao. What's the difference you ask? Both originally raw cacao, cocoa is roasted at high temperatures, reducing its nutritional value throughout the process. This means nutrients such as magnesium are present in smaller amounts. To add salt to the wound, the sugar content in commercial chocolate is usually extremely high. As sugar creates inflammation in the body, consuming high amounts of sugar during your period can make PMS symptoms worse.
Give these alternatives a go:
Swap hot chocolate for our Forme superblend hot chocolate (Receive 40% off your first order + free shipping. Use code FORME40)
Swap ice cream for a fruit, fibre filled 'ice cream' such as Nice cream.
Swap milk chocolate for sugar-free chocolate such as Fruit and nut chocolate cups.
Swap processed treats for homemade goodies such as cookie dough
Always reaching for something salty?
Next on the craving list: Salt. Salty foods and especially deep-fried foods are common go-to snacks. The problem with these salty foods is the oil they are cooked in. Majority of processed or deep-fried salty foods use vegetable oils. Vegetable oils are high in omega-6 fatty acids. Omega-6 is an inflammatory fat and excessive consumption can increase inflammatory responses within the body. As the woman's body is prone to fluid retention and inflammation during this time, consuming more inflammatory foods than anti-inflammatory foods can increase symptoms such as cramps and acne.
Give these alternatives a go:
Swap hot chips for homemade sweet potato
Swap potato chips for seaweed or nuts.
Swap deep-fried foods for our savoury muffins
Cravings for all the carbs?
Last but not least, simple carbs. Most women are guilty of biting into the freshly baked ciabatta loaf during their period at least once in their life. Simple carbohydrates have a higher glycemic index compared to complex carbohydrates. This means they are easily absorbed and utilised in the body for energy. This is the reason you get instant energy after foods such as bread or pasta until your blood sugar levels come crashing down shortly after, leaving you drained and fatigued. During the processing of simple carbohydrates, fibre along with other nutrients are stripped. As we all know, fibre helps keep you regular. This is extra important in the lead up and during your period as your bowel habits can often fluctuate.
While there is no need to avoid carbs completely, opting for complex carbohydrates is a much better choice. They will stabilise blood sugar levels, boost serotonin production and provide adequate fibre. .
Give these alternatives a go:
Swap white bread for sourdough or our gluten-free olive loaf.
Swap croissants for our orange turmeric muffins.
Swap pre-made pancake mix for our anti-inflammatory golden pancakes.
Use these swaps as guides and feel free to get creative in the kitchen with wholesome foods. If you come up with any other healthy options that hit the spot during your period, let us know in the comments below or on our social media.
