An unforgettable fire
Holocaust survivor and Nobel Peace Prize winner Elie Wiesel believes that the opposite of love is not hate — but rather, indifference.
Features |
At age 15, Elie Wiesel and his family were sent to Auschwitz concentration camp. Wiesel was separated from his mother and younger sister but remained with his father for another year. His father died in the last months of the war; his mother and youngest sister perished in the gas chambers.
A decade later, Wiesel recorded his experiences; Night was published in 1958. The success of this novel led Wiesel to write 35 additional works dealing primarily with Judaism, the Holocaust and the overall fight for morality among the races. For Night, Wiesel won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1986.

PS106/1 - Weekly Report No. 3 | 5 - 13 June 2017
Week 1 at the ice floe
After successfully building up all measurement sites we now have reached a full week with a multitude of observations. This report provides a few examples of what and how we are measuring in our little white floe, we call our home. Oddly enough we didn't manage to give it a name, probably because we all know that it will soon be gone.
With contributions from Ulrike Egerer, Hauke Flores, Allison Fong, Ilka Peeken, Priit Tisler
Algae that grow in the bottom part of the ice maintain a unique ecosystem that can only be found in the Polar Regions. Within the branched brine channels of the ice, in the niches at its bottom part and between stacks of ice blocks small animals that feed on ice algae find refuge. The habitat of these animals is very difficult to reach. Correspondingly, little is known about their distribution, frequency and way of life.
At the ice bottom there exist mostly copepods with sizes of 0.5 - 5 cm as well as amphipods. To find out more about these animals, biologists and sea ice physicists at AWI have developed a special research net. By means of a cable-operated under water measuring unit or Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV), the so called ROVnet, can probe organisms from the ice bottom. A bristle comb so to speak "sweeps" along the ice from below (see Fig. 1).
On PS106.1 the ROVnet was taken into the water in the Arctic for the first time. We were very relieved as we saw how well this technically simple research device worked at its first operation. The first catches were teeming with copepods and amphipods. Within few ROVnet casts the whole spectrum of expected species was nearly fully retrieved.
On this flow we were lucky to find a region were the algea Melosira arctica", alga of the year 2016, is living on the ice bottom. On an expedition in 2012 that nearly went to the North Pole we could prove that this alga is an important source of nutrition for organisms living at the sea floor. These algae consist of tiny cells, but build large chains of those that can reach up to several meters in size. Small forests of this species are than hanging below the floe (see Fig. 2). In order to investigate the adaptability of these algae to changing light conditions through the melting ice, we manipulate the light with different snow loads.
Regular probing will take place in this region to identify the optimal life conditions for these algae. In addition we want to find out, which part the current plays for the growth of the algae.
A suite of biological and biogeochemical samples are collected from the water column on a daily basis to observe the temporal evolution of the plankton community and the essential nutrients they utilize. Additionally, we are interested in understanding the linkages between pools of carbon, nitrogen, and other elements in seawater, sea ice, and the atmosphere. Therefore, concentrations of trace gases (i.e. methane) and particulate pools of carbon and nitrogen are sampled from the seawater to ascertain fluxes across different interfaces. In addition to these observations, several experiments are underway to elucidate the mechanisms which control gas fluxes, controls on primary productivity, and carbon and nitrogen cycling. Some groups are specifically interested in how light and additional nutrients can alter the rate of specific processes, such as primary productivity and nitrogen fixation. These experiments are conducted through a combination of shipboard water collections and in situ incubations under the ice. We work closely with other groups onboard to examine the linkages between pelagic waters and sea ice environments.
Two days after arriving at our ice floe, the tethered balloon was ready for its daily operations. Back home, we had developed different sensor packages, which can be attached to our 90m2 Helium-filled balloon in different configurations (see Fig. 3) to measure vertical profiles of the Arctic atmospheric boundary layer. We retrieve turbulence and turbulent fluxes as well as radiative fluxes to derive the radiation budget and heating rates of clouds. We are mainly interested in measuring within low-level clouds, so we were happy with the weather conditions of the first week with clouds and moderate wind.
A team of two people from The Finnish Meteorological Institute and The University Centre in Svalbard is operating UAVs on our ice floe: a fixed wing UAV and a quadrocopter (see Fig. 4), each of which is equipped with sensors for the measurement of temperature, relative humidity, pressure and they can also estimate the wind. Several UAV flights have been conducted so far, focusing on the lowest hundreds metres of the atmosphere; the boundary layer. The UAV measurements nicely complement those from other platforms deployed during the expedition, such as a tethered balloon, weather balloons (radiosondes), lidars and conventional weather masts.
The same team also operated the UAVs during an expedition in Antarctica with Polarstern during the austral winter of 2013. In spite of more modest temperatures and 24 hours daylight, operating UAVs during this Arctic expedition has proven more challenging than in Antarctica. Especially the visibility and for parts of the time also strong winds, have limited the number of UAV operations. The visibility is not only important for observing the aircraft, but also important for spotting polar bears that might be in the area.
After the short visit at the beginning of the week we haven't seen any polar bears so far, although we spotted some seals. Several times we had to cancel our measurements in the ice due to low visibility. Also the two AWI Polar aircrafts Polar 5 and Polar 6 could not take off from Longyearbyen for the planned flights in the area of Polarstern for several days due to bad weather conditions. However, all in all the first week has yielded many nice measurement situations, especially since we now arrived in the melting period, but more of that in the next and last report of the section PS106.1

ISIEINDIA has organized Driver Training Program Slot 1 for Drivers of Team participating in the Indian Karting Race 2018. The Training Program held at Erda's Speedways, Vadodara on 26th November 2018. Fuel/lubricants consumption in a vehicle depends on various factors like vehicular design, road conditions, traffic pattern, driving habits, and maintenance practices. Out of these, the quickest and cheapest way to affect the saving of fuels is by following good driving habits. Proper driving not only saves fuel but also reduces breakdowns and increases road safety. In Slot 1 of Driver Training Program, 12 Drivers have participated. These twelve drivers divided into 3 Groups, completed seven sessions. In each session, a single driver completed 10 Laps of the circuit.
Before starting the sessions, Trainer guided them about the safety precaution to be taken while driving the vehicle.
In the first two session drivers are free to run the vehicle as per their previous experience of driving, a single person has completed 10 Laps of the track. This session is to let the driver know more about the track.
After Completing first two sessions, Trainer rectified the Driving mistakes done by the drivers and guided them "How to use Steering? How to make the turns? How to cover up the timings while you are racing? Colour Coding of Flags used in the race." After that trainer took all the drivers for the track walk, and guide them where they can accelerate full, where they have to apply the brakes and where they can overtake and marked the route for the drivers to run vehicle safely.
In the Next Three session (3rd, 4th, 5th Session) – Drivers start driving the vehicle according to the track marked by the trainer. In the 3rd session, drivers have to drive the vehicle slowly to remind the track after that in the 4th & 5th Session they use to increase the speed and they run the vehicle on full throttle. After that trainer again rectified the mistakes done the Drivers.
In the last two sessions (6th & 7th Session) – The Marking has been removed and these sessions were the timing session. In this the performance of each driver is been calculated like the consistency of covering each lap (time was noted), Driving Skills learned and the best time was taken to complete one lap. Drivers took 33 Seconds for completing one lap.
At the end, the certificate was issued to the drivers for training in FMSCI recognized Driver Training Centre now they can easily participate in National Level Racing Event using this certificate.
Driver Training Program Slot 2 Dates: 18th Dec 2018 (Registration Completed)
Driver Training Program Slot 2 Dates: 19th Dec 2018 (Registration Last Date: 30th Nov 2018)

In an ideal world, every FBS program would have its own place to call home, but the reality is a number of schools must work out lease agreements to play home game sin NFL stadiums. USF is reportedly set to continue renting space in Raymond James Stadium in Tampa for the next six years.
According to a report from Tampa Bay Times, USF will not have to pay a rental fee and will just have to handle costs of operation on game day. In addition, USF will have to pay a ticket surcharge of eight percent off the sales of tickets, with a cap of $2.50 for each ticket sold. USF also has an opt-out clause if it desires.
Under the terms of the agreement between USF and the Tampa Sports Authority, USF must play at least six games in Raymond James Stadium each season. USF will play seven home games this upcoming season, including conference games against Cincinnati, Houston, Temple and Tulsa. Other home games will be played against Illinois, UMass and Stony Brook.
USF continues to evaluate long-term plans that could lead to the construction of an on-campus football facility, but for the next six years, it will call Raymond James Stadium home.

It's said that if you cut the Bible at any spot, it bleeds Jesus. Jesus, the second person of the Trinity of God, is the central figure of the Bible. The blessings given to Abraham in Gen 12 point to the salvation of the nations through Jesus, the "seed" of Abraham.
Jesus is the focal point of the Bible. The Old Testament tells a story of a God who wants to make himself known to all peoples, but the tribe chosen to carry out that assignment is weak and selfish and sinful (as we all are), and they failed that task. So God created a way to reconcile himself with his created world, by sending his only son to pay the penalty and redeem us.
At the appointed time, Jesus came to live, teach, die, be resurrected, teach and go to heaven.
You can cut the Bible anywhere, and it bleeds Jesus!
Everything in the Bible points to Jesus. From Genesis on, they look forward to the Messiah. From Acts on, it is recounting, retelling and explaining the life of Jesus and our life with Him.

Sketchbook is a daily barometer
I've been drawing in sketchbooks for about 5 years, when I actually really started to paint. It's for drawing but also annotating , keeping memories of reading, theory, my own evolution and preoccupations. I'm glad I have them. They help me to believe I do have a guide line . After all...
I'm working more and more with watercolor as I need to solve color problems. I've done hundreds pencil drawings of my cats, but this one is enterely done with the brush, a new approach.
This is the very last sketch so far. I did it yesterday coming back home, a thumbnail as quick as a snapshot, with the little "emergency" kit that I allways have with me (the tiny watercolor box and water brush I mentionned before)

I'm not going to review the first night because...it was the first night. Shows need time to develop. I'll just say that I think Colbert is a really smart guy, very talented and highly likable, and the first show was fine -- some things worked wonderfully, some just fair. I suspect that that will always be the case.
(I'll just make one observation. Jeb! Bush looked uncomfortable and even wary during his entire interview. If he didn't want to go on and risk being ridiculed, that's fine -- but he did go on. And if this is how he reacts to talking with a comic actor, it doesn't bode well for being president. Point of reference: Colbert did not ridicule him, and was quite polite, with only a couple of very mild, pointed questions, all of which Mr. Bush should be well-preferred for by now, but still doesn't appear to be. Seriously, how can he not be spot-on impeccably prepared for -- I'm sure you love your brother, but how do you differ from him on politics? He answered it with a hesitant quip, but had to be prompted for a more substantive answer. For what it's worth, the interview appeared t be edited, I assume for time)
If you missed the show, here's how it opened -- just like any self-respecting sporting event in the good old U.S. of A does --

February 2018 - Dr. Brian Forrest received the designation of ChangeMaker by Medical Economics for his innovative direct primary care practice. Dr. Forrest is one of seven physicians across the country to hold this distinction.
In an interview, he recalls how he took inspiration from an article about Gordon Moore, the man who started the micro patient concept. Reading the article planted the seed that got Dr. Forrest to think outside the box - "Why couldn't family medicine be more like a gym membership?" he thought to himself. After interviewing practice managers and physicians during an elective in residency, Dr. Forrest learned their overload was from pushing papers to insurance companies. It was then he decided to eliminate administrative overhead and focus on patient care, which allowed him to charge patients less without compromising patient care.
Today Dr. Forrest has a thriving direct primary care office in Apex, North Carolina.

JAPAN: Prosecutors in Japan must decide by the end of this week if they are to formally indict ex-Toyota comms chief Julie Hamp for alleged drugs offences.
According to media reports, she is unlikely to be prosecuted, but that has not been officially confirmed by the authorities.
Under Japanese law, a suspect can be held for up to 23 days without charge. Hamp was arrested on June 18 after customs agents found 57 tablets containing oxycodone, which is tightly regulated in Japan, in a package she allegedly sent to herself from the US.
Prosecutors can lay charges at any point during the detention period if they deem they have enough evidence. If charged, Hamp could remain in custody until court proceedings take place.
The former Toyota Motor global managing officer and CCO resigned on July 1 with Senior managing officer Shigeru Hayakawa taking on her responsibilities.
The automaker, which initially defended Hamp after the arrest, said in a statement that it "accepted her resignation after considering the concerns and inconvenience that recent events have caused our stakeholders."
Hamp relocated to Toyota's global headquarters in Japan in April after being promoted from North America CCO in March. She was the first female senior executive to reach that level at the automaker.
According to the US Embassy in Japan, life in the country's jails is tough, especially for drug offence suspects.
"For most drug cases, prosecutors place a suspect incommunicado which bars them from receiving visitors other than a lawyer or a consul, and from corresponding with anyone other than their lawyer or (in most cases) the embassy or consulate.
"Some suspects incommunicado may also be prohibited from receiving mail or reading material from the embassy or consulate, although they are usually allowed to meet in person with a consul and to write to a consul. Incommunicado orders may continue until the first trial date," it states on its website.
Prosecutors in Japan generally do not take a case to trial unless they are convinced they can win, and about a quarter of all cases are dropped prior to indictment. However, after indictment, the conviction rate is over 99 per cent.
"If indicted, the defendant is usually transferred to the regional detention prison where he/she will be held for the duration of the trial. At times prisoners are held at local police stations due to space constraints at other facilities," the embassy website states
"There is no trial by jury in Japan. Instead, cases are tried by a panel of three judges. Individual court sessions can last a short period of time or several hours. Subsequent sessions will be held anywhere from several days to several weeks later.
"Depending on the complexity of the case, a trial could last for many months. If a defendant pleads guilty, the trial could be resolved in as few as two hearings."
Hamp told police she did not intend to break Japanese law.

A US federal jury has found former soldier Steven Dale Green guilty of raping an Iraqi teenager and then executing the girl and her family, court officials said.
Green, who was discharged from the army due to a "personality disorder" before his role in the atrocity came to light, was found guilty on all 17 criminal counts which included rape, murder and obstruction of justice.
A jury will determine whether he should receive the death penalty at a sentencing hearing which is set to begin on Monday (US time).
Green's mother, father and brother - who were not present during the trial at Green's request - are scheduled to testify on his behalf.
Green, 19 at the time of the crime, was described as the trigger-man in the group of five men who donned black "ninja" outfits and raped Abeer Qassim Hamza al-Janabi, 14, and shot to death her and her father, mother and six-year-old sister.
The 2006 incident unfolded after the soldiers drank whiskey, played cards, and plotted the attack in Mahmudiya, 30 kilometres south of Baghdad.

One of Kannada's big hits U-Turn is being remade into Tamil and Telugu. While it has been speculated that Samantha is headlining the remakes, there was confusion as rumours spread that Nayanthara might be the heroine. However, Sam has now confirmed that she will be playing the lead role in both the Tamil and Telugu remakes. The actress further said that the project will go on floors during February. The remakes are being helmed by Pawan Kumar who directed the original film as well. Starring Shraddha Srinath, the film documents the journey of a journalist who tracks down a few deaths on a flyover. Incidentally, U-Turn marked Shraddha's debut in Kannada. The film was a hit, earning several awards for the Vikram Vedha girl.
Samantha has a busy 2018. Samantha, who tied the knot with her long-time beau Naga Chaitanya, has been working round the clock. The actress is awaiting the release of her film with Vishal, Irumbuthirai and is also working on Thiagaraja Kumaraja's Super Deluxe, the untitled project with Ponram-Sivakarthikeyan, Rangasthalam with Ram Charan and Savithri's biopic Mahanati.
See Samantha Akkineni tweet confirming her role in Tamil and Telugu remakes of U-Turn:
A sneak peek of her role from Super Deluxe was unveiled recently. In a never-seen before avatar, Samantha as Vaembu created much waves around the project. Incidentally, Vijay Sethupathi is playing a trans-man in the film. Irumbuthirai, which was initially scheduled for a Republic Day release, is now likely to release in February or March after Vishal agreed to let Jiiva's Kee release, as a gesture to producer Michael Rayappan.

Vintage Wedding Inspiration – A Bridal Shoot in Bristol
09 Dec 2015
At the end of November, I got together with an amazing team of women from around Bristol. We put together a vintage wedding inspiration bridal shoot that would still be very modern for a city wedding in winter. We styled three different eras: the 20s, the 30s and the 50s and created very wearable looks for each decade. I had great fun taking these photos with an amazing team. I hope the shoot proves to be useful for anyone looking for vintage wedding inspiration for their day!
Vintage Wedding Inspiration
The Venue:
At the top of the iconic Park Street in the centre of Bristol, Goldbrick House offers wedding receptions in it's quirky townhouse with lots of unique rooms and vintage decor. Despite being stuck inside all day on a very rainy day in November, the venue provided some amazing opportunity for some authentic looking bridal portraits!
Follow Goldbrick House on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter
The Dresses:
Kate from Heartfelt Vintage, a beautiful shop in Clifton Village, lent us these gorgeous, genuine vintage dresses. " I want to offer an alternative to the traditional bridal boutiques and create a relaxed and informal environment where brides can try on dresses without feeling overwhelmed", and, she adds, "there's always plenty of tea and cake!" She also puts together complete vintage packages including the hair and make-up to make wedding planning as stress-free as possible! For this occasion, our girls modelled two 20s dresses, a 30s satin gown and two 50s frocks and as you can see, they all look fab!
Follow Heartfelt Vintage on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram
The Hair:
All of the hair for each era was styled by Able Mabel. As a vintage specialist, she works closely with the Heartfelt team adapting styles to suit. She also creates bespoke hats. Beccy (pictured above) is wearing a red velvet and vintage lace hat to complete her 50s look.

The Make Up:
Claire is a makeup artist with over 10 years experience in fashion and beauty. She offers a tailored and personal service, designed uniquely to interpret the Bride to be's individual style. From the modern, bohemian, contemporary bride to pure vintage glamour your bridal vision will be recognised and become a reality! Here she has perfected the look for each decade, a particular favourite being the 20s "Cupid's Bow" lips.
The Flowers:
All the flowers including the bouquets and head pieces in the shoot were made by Fiona from Emerald and Jade. "I just really want the flowers to reflect the bride", so she creates individual bouquets that are really tailored to the vision her brides have in their head or, if they're struggling, she'll help them come up with an idea which really says "this is me". For this shoot, she put together different styles with delicate, faded colours or big bold statements which really looks very eye catching in the photos!
The Cakes
Sarah from the Rosie Shaw Cake Company created three spectacular cakes for the shoot, all with a winter vintage theme. She also designed and made the sphere cakes which look beautiful in the vintage china cups as a table decoration or favours. She only uses the best ingredients available from free range locally sourced eggs and organic flour to the best Madagascan vanilla bean paste. "We are passionate about our creations and work closely with your requirements insuring that your special day is a happy memorable one," so you can arrange a no obligation consultation with plenty of cake to test!

You should feel accomplished when doing arts and crafts. You can go in a multitude of different ways when you have ideas and tips. The following article will help stimulate your creative juices when it comes to arts and crafts. You will soon be able to create some fun and beautiful items for your home or for your friends.
Since many crafting projects make a mess, use newspaper to avoid ruining anything. After the project is complete, simply toss the newspaper to keep your project worry free.
Have you been searching for a good spot to gather materials to make crafts? If you go online, there are many websites that offer excellent deals on many different types of crafts. Browse the web and see what you can find. They even can provide free shipping in certain instances.
You can use different items for crafts. For example, paper goods are great. Paper towel rolls can work. Magazines and wrapping paper can be reused, too. Instead of throwing things away, get creative by thinking of ways to use them in your arts and crafts projects.
Remember that when you do crafts with children, things are going to get messy. If that is a source of stress, you can cover your work surface with newspaper or butcher paper to catch the mess. Consider making use of washable materials, such as adhesives and markers.
If you are having trouble finding your arts and crafts supplies at a reasonable price, start looking into second-hand stores. There are many consignment shops that offer unusual supplies for today's artist. Merchandise is eclectic and sells quite quickly, so be sure you visit these stores on occasion to keep up.
Since many crafting projects make a mess, use newspaper to avoid ruining anything. Once you're finished, just gather up the newsprint and throw it away, or recycle it.
Put your focus on one element and keep it there. It can be tempting to do various projects and start on all kinds of crafts in this hobby. However, that's a surefire way to keep those projects unfinished! Be patient and do one thing at a time, finishing one before beginning on another. This will better your chances of finishing.
If you are having arts and crafts time with children, remember that you don't have to have exact examples of each project. Let your kids create using their imaginations, and see what happens. Let them glue an eye where an ear goes if they want to. This is a time to let them be creative without interference.
Look for crafting ideas online. The Internet if full of ideas of exciting new projects. No matter who is doing the project or what it consists of, you will undoubtedly find creative infusion online.
There are a million different things that can be used to create something crafty. Paper goods that are generally discarded are great. You can also use paper towel or toilet paper rolls. Save some of your old magazines to use for collages or scrapbooking. Come up with creativity ideas that you normally would not use with certain throwaway items.
Etsy can be a wonderful location for finding your craft and art supplies. This is a website that has things for sale from other individuals. You can also sell your projects on this website. This is the perfect site if you need any vintage items for a craft project.
If you've got a cloudiness to your mosaic after the mortar is dried, try to wipe the mosaic clean with a rag sprayed with glass cleaner. If you don't do this, it can be hard to get the powder off of the mortar, and you want a solid finished project.
You can have so much with with all kids using different crafts projects. If you have a group of kids consider a project that they will enjoy. If you cannot come up with an idea, ask someone or look online for inspiration.
Don't push kids too much when doing projects in arts and crafts. The idea of doing these types of projects is to foster creativity. If you're getting down on the kids, you are going to stifle any creativity they have.
If you're looking for arts and crafts materials, give a hard look at your kitchen. There are tons of gems out there to do in crafts. Aluminum foil, plastic containers and jars are just a few of them. Dried pasta could be a material you can use also.
Peanut Butter
To put together a whimsical bird feeder, begin with a small pine cone and coat the outside with peanut butter. Then, roll it around in birdseed. Your seeds will adhere to your peanut butter, so all you need to do is add a string and hang the feeder in a tree.
Remember that when you do crafts with children, things are going to get messy. If you don't like messes, use newspaper to cover the area. You can use washable markers and glue too.
If you are someone who enjoys arts and crafts then Etsy is the perfect website for you. There are thousands of craft items available for sale, and you can get some great ideas for your projects by browsing the website. Etsy is a great place to post your top-notch projects to bring in some additional cash to pay for your craft.
Never dispose of the packaging of anything you buy. There are many uses for this packaging. Keep it all in a bin, so that you have instant inspiration for future projects.
Give yourself the time you need for a project. Never rush a project. High quality is the result of effort and time. You'll have a project that looks sloppy and half-hearted otherwise. So, give it the time that it deserves, and the results will please you.
You don't have to have an end game when working on crafts with kids. The perfect examples inhibit their imagination and hold them up to a standard. You want to focus on them being creative instead. They might switch an eye and an ear on a face, for example. It's the idea of them expressing creativity and imagination more than it is about doing something according to a specific model.
You can give your loved pet a wonderful gift by you and your children making it a unique food or water dish. Start with a ceramic or plastic bowl and use paint pens or permanent markers to apply any designs that wander into your kids' heads. Your pet will have a great, new dish and it will add a little flair to your home, too!
Knowing what you already know can help you get excited about doing a craft project. Apply the advice that has been described so that you are more efficient when doing your hobby, and also so you have more fun. Show your crafts off to everyone.

A worthy update to a legendary tank! The Aspire Nautilus 2S is a sleek, curvy tank with incredible flavor, amazing durability, and excellent design. It uses the new Aspire Nautilus 2S Replacement Coil, for an amazing direct-to-lung (DTL) experience, but also takes the widely-available Aspire Nautilus BVC Vape Coil, which includes some amazing mouth-to-lung (MTL) options. And the Nautilus 2S goes so far as to include drip tips for each, so no matter your vaping style, this is the tank for you.
The largely stainless-steel construction acts as its own cover for the glass tube, keeping it safer from drops and impacts than tanks with 360-degree glass, while still allowing for plenty of window to check vape juice level. A healthy 2.6 ml capacity means you won't be checking very often!
Airflow is handled by either a row of five small holes, for a tight MTL experience, or a wide-open slot for a free-flowing DTL hit, both covered to whatever degree you want by a nice rotary airflow ring. It features top-fill convenience with its own integral silicone self-seal, to keep refills clean and easy, and the top cap is threaded so it won't pop open on its own.
And what a looker! The sleek, curved design is smooth and stylish, and won't catch on your pocket or in your bag. This is how tanks should look!
The Aspire Nautilus 2S is a worthy successor to the Nautilus line, and with Aspire Nautilus BVC Vape Coil, it's easy to keep compatibility with your old tanks, as well!
- Height: 61.5 mm
- Diameter: 23 mm
- Capacity: 2.6 ml

The Integrated Marketing Team: How to build, motivate and retain a great team of data-driven, customer-centric marketing mavens (2017 All About Integrated Marketing Virtual Conference Session)
Speakers: Kevin Joyce, CMO and VP Revenue Marketing Strategy, Pedowitze Group
See below to view this webinar, originally offered as a session at 2017 All About Integrated Marketing Virtual Conference & Expo.
The structure and function of the integrated marketing team of old has evolved rapidly in the past 10 years. There are new roles, new skills, new technologies and new desired outcomes and responsibility. It begs the questions:
• What is the ideal structure for agile integrated marketing?
• What are the important roles and skill sets required?
• What are the new KPIs to measure this team's success?
• How can we help them become data-driven decision making customer-centric mavins?
• How do you retain them and keep them motivated?
• What are the development paths for the individuals and the team?
Building an agile, omni-channel, customer-centric marketing organization is not difficult, but it does require planning, patience and perspicuity of purpose (the marketing 4Ps revised!).

So this is it! Last game of the three-way format before the real stuff kicks off next week (well as real as you can get for NAB). As always just use these results as rough guides.
Here are the results:
Game 1: Greater Western Sydney 0.5.2 – 32 def by Carlton 0.4.10 – 34
Game 2: Sydney Swans 0.3.6 – 24 def by Carlton 1.5.7 – 46
Game 3: Sydney Swans 1.3.1 – 28 def by Greater Western Sydney 0.7.10 – 52
Started slow against GWS but came out firing against the Swans and never took their foot off winning both games.
Next Game: vs Fremantle Saturday 2nd March @ Etihad
Gibbs (Mid/Def $473,300) – 36 and 34. Played both games in the middle, 18 disposals and 4 tackles, running absolutely everywhere attacking the footy. Absolute Lock if these games were anything to go by.
McLean (Mid $516,200) – 31 and 43. Could be an interesting POD pick but unfortunately his price will rule him out of a lot of teams. Chases the ball and will never get tagged with Judd and Murphy in the same mids. Keep an eye on him in your draft leagues though.
Rowe (Ruck/Fwd $108,500) – 44 and 16. Took the most of his opportunities in the first game. Could be an excellent cash cow but needs to impress more during this preseason to be a genuine option. Too much competition for his spot at Carlton.
Murphy (Mid $522,000) – 18 and 33. Another genuine option from Carlton for your midfield. Scored well considering he never looked like he got out of 2nd gear.
Scores for Carlton: (v GWS) Rowe 44, Gibbs 36, Casboult 35, Hampson 32, McLean 31, Robinson 26, Simpson 25, Yarran 24, Bell 23, Ellard 23, Laidler 23, Murphy 18, Graham 17, Walker 16, Lucas 15, Watson 15, Joseph 12, Curnow 11, Garlett 10, White 10, O'Keeffe 9, Collins 6, Duigan 6, Henderson 4.
Scores for Carlton: (v Sydney) McLean 43, Hampson 40, Jamison 35, Gibbs 34, Murphy 33, Carrazzo 32, Casboult 31, Yarran 31, Simpson 29, Betts 25, Dale 25, Ellard 23, Armfield 19, Walker 18, Henderson 17, Lucas 16, Rowe 16, Bell 15, Davies 13, Garlett 10, Robinson 10, McCarthy 8, Joseph 6, Tuohy 4.
Greater Western Sydney:
Unlucky not to come out of this round with two wins, showed lots of promise especially with Patton and Cameron working together in the forward line. Looking a lot bigger after their second preseason and continuing to look like they're going to be a force in years to come.
Next Game: vs Brisbane Saturday 2nd March @ Wagga
Whitfield (Mid $183,700) – Playing wide outside mid, GWS seem to have a lot of confidence in using him as their wing option when switching out of defense Fantastic awareness for a first year player.
Greene (Mid $495,700) – 29 and 66. Started slow in the first game but was everywhere against the Swans. Finished the evening with a combined 23 disposals including 2 goals, which is always great to see from a midfielder. Doesn't look like slowing down this year and could be a great POD pick if you can fit him in.
Miles (Mid $346,400) – 70 and DNP. Plays a very fantasy friendly game in that he tackles and kicks a lot! Only played the first game against Carlton but managed 6 tackles. Unfortunately according to @RLGriffin85 he has been on the outer with the GWS coaching staff at the selection table. This is a shame but hopefully for us he can do everything right and break into their 22 because his scoring potential is massive.
O'hAilpin (Ruck/Fwd $157,700) – 8 and DNP. Confession time. I've been strongly considering O'hAilpin this preseason as I think he represents a lot of value. So I watched him closely today as he had more 'facepalm' moments than most players do in their careers. The moment that stuck in my mind was when he lead for the ball, dropped the mark, then dragged down his opponent without the ball to give away a free kick (and more importantly, lose 3 points). Hopefully he can improve and provide the value he is capable of but it wont be for my team.
Patton (Fwd $183,300) – 25 and 34. Goes against my rule of picking young KPP's but this kid will be hard to ignore. Easily in GWS best 22 so guaranteed game time, very cheap and is very effective once the ball hits the ground for a kid of his size. Definitely worth a look.
Scores for GWS: (v Carlton) Miles 70, Treloar 43, Mohr 40, Tomlinson 37, Whitfield 32, Greene 29, Gilham 28, Palmer 28, Patton 25, Coniglio 22, Adams 21, Corr 20, Kennedy 20, Smith 20, Bugg 18, Scully 18, Shiel 18, Davis 16, Giles 16, Cameron 15, Hampton 14, Sumner 12, O'hAilpin 8, Buntine 4
Scores for GWS: (v Sydney) Greene 66, Smith 38, Ugle 36, Patton 34, Wilson 34, Reid 32, Cameron 30, Darley 28, Giles 27, Frost 26, Palmer 23, Mohr 20, Scully 20, Kennedy 16, Adams 15, Whiley 15, Tomlinson 13, Aylett 12, Hampton 11, Treloar 11, Edwards 9, Plowman 9, Davis 8, Golds 8.
Sydney were not impressive. Whether it's because they don't take NAB seriously or are a month behind everyone in preparation I'm not sure. But take their results and output with a grain of salt because this was a very rusty and almost uninterested Sydney.
Next Game: vs St Kilda Sunday March 3rd @ Etihad
O'Keefe (Mid $499,300) – 50 and 26. Put in a solid performance as always. Can't be selected as a fwd this year so he could provide POD to your mids if you have the space for him.
Towers (Mid $107,200) – 18 and 37. Mature age rookie who got better as the games went on. Has a bit of pace about him which he used to sneak forward for a goal. Definitely worth watchlisting, so far looks the more likely of the Swans rookies for games.
Armstrong (Def $249,900) – 25 and 36. Looked good showing a bit of pace as a rebounding defender. Don't think he's in the swans best 22 yet but he did he chances no harm.
Lamb (Fwd $108,500) – 17 and 31. 20 years old and been on the Sydney list a few years, been very unlucky with injury/personal circumstances. Showed a bit of promise but I don't think this is his year either. Sydney just have too many options up forward.
Cunningham (Mid $102,700) – 34 and 24. Looks a lot bigger this year and worked himself into the play quite a bit. Did his chances of playing no harm with these games but I still think Towers may be ahead of him for games.
Scores for Sydney: (v Carlton) McVeigh 59, O'Keefe 50, K. Jack 39, Johnson 38, Bird 35, Cunningham 34, White 27, Armstrong 25, Walsh 21, Lloyd 19, Lockyer 19, Parker 18, Towers 18, Grundy 17, Lamb 17, Richards 17, Biggs 16, Reid 13, Everitt 10, Rampe 10, B. Jack 6, Naismith 3
Scores for Sydney: (v GWS) Grundy 43, Towers 37, Armstrong 36, Hannebery 35, Johnson 33, Bird 32, McVeigh 32, White 32, Everitt 31, Lamb 31, Reid 28, O'Keefe 26, Parker 26, Rampe 26, Cunningham 24, K. Jack 21, Richards 21, Lockyer 15, Naismith 11, Biggs 10, Membrey 6, Richards 4, B. Jack 3, Walsh 3.

The Cake Tree in the Ruins (Pushkin Collection) (Paperback)
On Our Shelves Now
Intensely moving stories that tell of the absurd violence of war, and tenderly depict the animals and children caught in its vortex.
In 1945, Akiyuki Nosaka watched the Allied firebombing of Kobe kill his adoptive parents, and then witnessed his sister starving to death. The shocking and blisteringly memorable stories of The Cake Tree in the Ruins are based on his own experiences as a child in Japan during the Second World War.
They are stories of a lonely whale searching the oceans for a mate, who sacrifices himself for love; of a mother desperately trying to save her son with her tears; of a huge, magnificent tree which grows amid the ruins of a burnt-out town, its branches made from the sweetest cake imaginable.
Profound, heartbreaking and aglow with a piercing beauty, they express the chaos and terror of conflict, yet also how love can illuminate even the darkest moment.
About the Author
Akiyuki Nosaka was born in 1930 in Japan, and was a member of the yakeato generation, 'the generation of the ashes', who survived the devastating firebombing of Japan during the Second World War. Nosaka was an award-winning novelist, short-story writer, essayist, lyricist, singer and politician. His adoptive parents were killed in the Allied firebombing of Kobe, and after he was evacuated with his sister, she died of malnutrition. These experiences inspired the stories in this collection, as well as one of his best-known works, Grave of the Fireflies, which was turned into a hugely successful Studio Ghibli film (called 'a masterpiece' by the Guardian), and which is forthcoming in a new translation from Pushkin Press. Nosaka died in 2015.
Praise For…
'These deeply intense and parable-like tales of suffering tear at the heartstrings, but also show hope and resiliency in a nation haunted by war. . . Akiyuki Nosaka offers beautiful and haunting tales of suffering and starvation in the aftermath of the Allied bombing of Japan in World War II.' - -- Nancy Powell, in Shelf Awareness
'Nosaka transmutes the pain of his personal experiences into sharp, heart-wrenching depictions of a country in desperate destitution... In each of these stories, the connections and relationships that are often taken for granted in day-to-day life are elevated alongside the stakes, shining intensely and brilliantly even as tragedy unfolds.' — World Literature Today
'Magical realism with the touch of a master… Nosaka, drawing on his own experiences, in just a few pages bringing to life a world now largely forgotten.' — The Reading Life
'Remarkable stories... They are dark but so beautiful, so profound; subtle and elegant. It is a book that will last all your life.' - Irish Times

Chiemeka Adindu|22 August 2019
Cross River state governor, Senator Professor Ben Ayade has reassured members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) of his administration's resolve to expand welfare windows for the comfort of Corps Members deployed to the state for their one year mandatory National service NEGROIDHAVEN has garnered.
He made this remark yesterday during the swearing in ceremony for 2019 Batch "B", Stream II Orientation Course at the NYSC Permanent Orientation Camp in Obubra Local Government Area of the state.
The governor who was represented by the Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Youth and Sports Development, Mrs. Maryjane Ebri assured the Corps Members of the state government's efforts in ensuring the safety of every resident of the state, calling on all security agencies to liaise and work to that effect.
"As you prepare for the service year ahead to render selfless services to the state, my administration will continue to expand welfare windows for your comfort. I am aware of the state of the orientation camp and has taken necessary steps to intervene with the immediate renovation of the facilities in the Orientation Camp.
"I want to assure you that Cross River State is safe and secured and we are working tirelessly to ensure that the promises we made towards guaranteeing the safety of every resident of the State is fulfilled. I therefore make a call to the Nigerian Police and other security agencies to ensure that Corps Members are well protected in all areas of the State they would be posted to for their primary assignment," the governor stated.
Governor Ayade admitted that the NYSC has been a vanguard for projecting and promoting the well-being of the rural populace and grass root development that the nation requires, commending the scheme for working tirelessly in propagating a one indivisible entity.
He further enjoined the Corps Members to accept their deployment to the state and see it as an opportunity to contribute to the growth and development of the state and the nation at large, advising them learn the culture, language and traditions of their host communities in order to proffer appropriate solutions. He urged them to always put Nigeria first in all their undertakings.
Earlier in his speech, NYSC Cross River State Coordinator, Eddy Megwa made a passionate appeal to the Governor to urgently intervene in the renovation of Camp facilities for the comfort of many Nigeria youths who choose Cross River as a place to undergo their National service each successive year.
He mentioned that the NYSC has continued to inculcate good morals in Nigeria youths. "After 46 years of existence, the NYSC has continuously mobilised graduates from different tertiary Institutions of higher learning within and outside the country geared towards building National Unity and Integration as well as building a responsible youth that would ensure that the future of this nation is reassured by way of continuous national development," the Coordinator stated.
He revealed that at the close of registration for the Batch, a total of 1,200 Corps Members comprising 738 males and 462 females were successfully registered and are getting along with the regimented Camp activities.
He appreciated the Governor and other government officials present for their continuous support to the scheme. He also commended the efforts of Camp officials, collaborating agencies and security agencies for their efforts in ensuring the safety and comfort of Corps Members so far.
Highlight was the administering of Oath of Allegiance on the Corps Members by the Chief Judge of the state who was represented by the Chief Justice of Obubra High Court, Hon. Justice Emmanuel Ubua.

The use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) sunitinib and pazopanib to treat metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is feasible and effective in Brazil, even though limitations of the public health system mean not all patients have access to these or other therapies, researchers wrote.
In a retrospective analysis of 222 patients with advanced clear cell RCC who were treated with either sunitinib (n = 109) or pazopanib (n = 113), overall survival was 15.2 months with sunitinib and 14.2 months with pazopanib, investigators reported in the Journal of Global Oncology.
Overall survival rates, based on Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center risk categories, were 32.9 months for patients with low risk disease, 15.9 months for intermediate risk patients, and 8.1 months for patient with poor risk – which constituted 29% of the patient population.
Pedro I. Velho, MD, of Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, and his coauthors noted that these survival rates were lower than those seen in phase 3 trials in the same population.
They suggested this could be caused by the fact that the patients in this real-world study had worse baseline prognoses than those seen in previous clinical trials.
However, they also pointed out that, in the Brazilian public health system, there was no standard systemic treatment option outside clinical trials for patients who have progressed on a TKI as a first-line treatment. Only around half the patients in this study (101) would have been eligible for participation in a clinical trial.
"In our opinion, it is crucial to extend the access to these TKIs for the Brazilian population and also patients in other countries with limited access to targeted therapies," the authors wrote.
However, the 14 patients who were eligible for treatment with nivolumab under a compassionate use program showed a significantly better overall survival rate, compared with patients who did not have access to a second-line therapy (36.7 months vs. 13.6 months; P less than .001).
"Also, it is imperative to provide systemic sequential treatment options for this population as an attempt to improve survival and offer the best outcomes for patients with metastatic RCC."
The median duration of treatment with sunitinib was 6.4 months, and with pazopanib, it was 6.7 months. Adverse events were responsible for discontinuation of treatment in 28.4% of patients on sunitinib and 22.1% of patients on pazopanib, with fatigue, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting as the most common toxicities in both groups.
Six authors declared honoraria, funding, expenses or consultancies with the pharmaceutical industry. Two authors had no conflicts of interest to declare.

"ethereum mining app reddit"
miss information. rx 570 – 580 get 22.5 mh/s with stock settings, if you put the correct drivers. correct drivers for the windows are the last one, but you need to change gaming -> compute to go mining. this will increase from 17 to 22.5. then after bios u can get 29-30
Now you need to run the program you just downloaded. To do this you need to run Command Prompt. You can do this by searching in the search function in Windows for "CMD" and then clicking on it when it shows up.
The mining process for Ethereum is the same as that of Bitcoin. For every transaction block, the miners make use of computers to quickly and repeatedly solve computational equations till any one of them makes it through. To be more precise, the miners ought to run the exclusive header metadata of the block (which include the timestamp as well as the software version) via a hash function that returns a jumbled, fixed-length string of letters and numbers which looks haphazard, and simply alters the 'nonce value', that controls the resultant hashing value. In case the miner comes across a hash that equals the existing target, then the miner will be granted with Ether cash and will get a chance to authenticate as well as add a new block on the Ethereum platform. There's no way the miners can the mining process as it is fixed. Since the miners leave an extensive proof of their puzzle-solving process on the network, the Ethereum mining process is also known as 'proof-of-work'. A miner locates a block every 12–15 seconds. If a miner starts solving the equations faster or slower than the set time, the Ethereum algorithm by default readjusts the difficulty level of the equations so that the miners roughly go back to the 12-second timeline for each solution.
Mining is a computationally intensive work that requires a lot of processing power and time. Mining is the act of participating in a given peer distributed cryptocurrency network in consensus. The miner is subsequently rewarded for providing solutions to challenging math problems. It is done by putting the computer's hardware to use with mining applications.
Both Nanopool and Ethermine can run different software to hash for Ethereum. I recommend running Claymore Dual Miner which allows you to hash for both Ethereum, as well as an alternative currency. This is because Ethereum heavily relies on memory usage while the core processor sits idle. While dual mining, the memory of your video card will hash for Ethereum, and the core processor will hash for Decred or Siacoin as an example.

Ether supply is not infinite. The overall amount of ether and the network operations was decided at the 2014 presale. No more than 18 million Ether gets issued every year, which is about 25 percent of the first issue. It serves as a system to reduce inflation.
The rest of this guide focuses on the hardware side. For further help setting up an Ethereum wallet, join a pool, and use your miner. These steps are detailed in our beginner's guide to mining Ethereum.
Further, the "ethash" proof-of-work system requires additional computer memory, meaning it's more difficult for miners to operate with particularly powerful chips called ASICs, and they are incentivized to use other types of computing systems. Ethereum mining is likely to shift in the future, however, as the network aims to transition to a "proof of stake" system which would upend the mining process as it currently exists.
Governments / Central banks – A country's central bank can play an important role in the foreign exchange markets. They can cause an increase or decrease in the value of their nation's currency by trying to control money supply, inflation, and (or) interest rates. They can use their substantial foreign exchange reserves to try and stabilize the market.
Everything else stays pretty much the same. You can only trade the capital you have, and when you trade it, I don't recommend losing more than 1% of it on a trade. So set your stop loss level accordingly. Without leverage though you may find that you have to risk much less than 1% of your capital.
The EUR/USD rate represents the number of US Dollars one Euro can purchase. If you believe that the Euro will increase in value against the US Dollar, you will buy Euros with US Dollars. If the exchange rate rises, you will sell the Euros back, making a profit. Please keep in mind that forex trading involves a high risk of loss.
First of all, it's important that you understand that trading the Foreign Exchange market involves a high degree of risk, including the risk of losing money. Any investment in foreign exchange should involve only risk capital and you should never trade with money that you cannot afford to lose.
STEP – Remove any overclock and undervolt from Claymore "start.bat" file if you were using those commands before (-cclock, -mclock, -cvddc, -mvddc) , even -tt and any other option. Claymore overclock and undervolt tools are terrible and have various problems:
For the hard drive, using an SSD is essential. While SSDs are more expensive, you will only need a 16GB one, which will set you back less than $30. If you're planning to solo mine, it's recommended that you buy a 32 or 64GB one, but again this will only be a few dollars more.
Spend a few months in a demo account making sure you understand the market, the risks and your own profit potential (making sure you can make a profit each month consistently) before trading any real capital.
–Yes, you can adjust your position and risk to less than 1% of your account. Usually I risk way less than 1% of my account on a trade. As long as the math works for you then you can trade any position size you want (less than 1% of the account).
The process of mining for ethereum is very similar to that of bitcoin mining. Miners utilize powerful computers to make educated guesses about complex mathematical problems. This system is known as "proof of work," because it requires that miners go through the puzzle-solving process in order to receive their ETH reward.
The takeaway here is that hashrate has followed (with some appreciable lag) the ETH price explosion, which began in late January 2016, saw some downturn in late 2016, but then exploded again in Q2 2017. What an amazing bull run! Up to almost $400 USD from just $10 USD in a few short months.
Turnover of exchange-traded foreign exchange futures and options has grown rapidly in recent years, reaching $166 billion in April 2010 (double the turnover recorded in April 2007). As of April 2016, exchange-traded currency derivatives represent 2% of OTC foreign exchange turnover. Foreign exchange futures contracts were introduced in 1972 at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and are traded more than to most other futures contracts.
Controversy about currency speculators and their effect on currency devaluations and national economies recurs regularly. Economists, such as Milton Friedman, have argued that speculators ultimately are a stabilizing influence on the market, and that stabilizing speculation performs the important function of providing a market for hedgers and transferring risk from those people who don't wish to bear it, to those who do.[81] Other economists, such as Joseph Stiglitz, consider this argument to be based more on politics and a free market philosophy than on economics.[82]
With this style of trading we may have stop losses that are 300 or 500 pips from our entry…but over the course of a couple months we expect to make 1500 pips (for example). Even trading one micro lot (approximately $0.10 per pip of movement), with a 300 pip stop loss we are risking $30 if we lose. In order to risk $30 on a trade we need an account balance of at least $3000, if risking 1% per trade (because 1% of $3000 is $30). If you are willing to risk 2% per trade, then $1500 in capital is needed (because 2% of $1500 is $30).
Please inform yourself about Ether Mining before you start Mining. Unfortunately we cannot get into every single detail here. If something does not work, please join the EtherBasics Forum. You will get help there.
All forex trades involve two currencies because you're betting on the value of a currency against another. Think of EUR/USD, the most-traded currency pair in the world. EUR, the first currency in the pair, is the base, and USD, the second, is the counter. When you see a price quoted on your platform, that price is how much one euro is worth in US dollars. You always see two prices because one is the buy price and one is the sell. The difference between the two is the spread. When you click buy or sell, you are buying or selling the first currency in the pair.

It is indisputable that when camp began, Vinni Lettieri was an afterthought — if a thought at all — when it came to assessing candidates for spots up front on the Rangers' opening roster.
Except, that is, in the mind of Lettieri, the 22-year-old whom the Blueshirts signed last March as a free agent out of the University of Minnesota.
"I came into camp with the intention of winning a job," Lettieri, who has played his way into legitimate contention, told The Post on Saturday. "I never have set a low bar for myself.
"The sky is the limit for me."
Lettieri, who is expected to be in the lineup for the third time when the Blueshirts face the Flyers in Monday's exhibition match at the Garden, has displayed energy and an impressive battle-level in addition to skating and skill attributes.
"I've always tried to get myself into the battle," said Lettieri, a grandson of Minnesota North Stars legend Lou Nanne. "I move my feet, support guys, and look to create space for myself where I can get off a shot.
"I look to shoot from anywhere, even areas of the ice where goalies might not be expecting shots."
The Rangers could opt to open the season with 14 forwards (not including the injured Jesper Fast) and seven defensemen.
The roster theoretically then could include both teenaged first-round centers, Lias Andersson and Filip Chytil, and both Lettieri and Matt Puempel.
Under this scenario, center Boo Nieves and walk-on Bobby Farnham would be left out upfront with either Neal Pionk or Anthony DeAngelo (and Ryan Graves) missing the opening cut on the blue line.
"I don't attempt to evaluate myself against other players," said Lettieri, who scored the Blueshirts' lone goal in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Islanders in Bridgeport, Conn. "I only measure myself against my own capabilities and expectations, and from that standpoint, I feel better with each day.
"It's definitely been a benefit for me to be here and watch the NHL guys' practice habits and their game preparation. Everyone is here for a reason. I've been learning the system and picking things up every day."
Lettieri is a right-handed shot who played both on the wing and in the middle for the Gophers.
He increased his production every season, recording 19 goals and 37 points as a senior after seven goals, 19 assists for 26 points during his junior year.
Undrafted, he signed with the Rangers in late March before joining the AHL Wolf Pack for nine games.
"Going to Hartford helped me prepare for this camp," said Lettieri, who had one assist for the Wolf Pack. "There's a lot of great talent in the AHL, so the chance to slide in there was a great experience for me."
Lettieri is still pressing his nose up against the window.
But with only two games remaining in the preseason, he is still very much in the mix.
"All I can control is my attitude and work ethic and that's what I'm focused [on]. I'm here to do my best," Lettieri said. "My goal coming here was to be a Ranger. That has not changed."
Sean Day was assigned to the AHL on Friday, but it is still possible that the Rangers could decide to send the 19-year-old defenseman back to OHL Windsor, where he won the Memorial Cup last season.
If the 2016 third-rounder does in fact return to the OHL, his three-year entry-level contract would slide for another season.

Film Review: The Beguiled
Set in the final throes of the American Civil War, The Beguiled unfolds in an ostentatious schoolhouse in rural Virginia, occupied by seven women: teachers Miss Martha (Nicole Kidman) and Edwina (Kirsten Dunst), and their five remaining pupils. When young Miss Amy (Oona Laurence) happens upon a handsome wounded soldier, Corporal McBurney (Colin Farrell), and brings him into the seminary, he becomes the object of interest to all, from innocent curiosity to thinly veiled desire.
In an attempt to prolong his refuge in the seminary, McBurney coaxes and charms the women one by one, soon finding himself embroiled in an altogether different conflict; he is caught in a silent crossfire of passive aggression, suspicion, and jealousy. A very civil war indeed. The tension escalates steadily, culminating in a glorious crescendo, as opulent as the chandelier which shatters to the ground in the melee.
The Beguiled is gripping throughout, owing in equal parts to director and her cast. Even after the growing tension ruptures, Coppola's direction ensures a controlled explosion, preventing it from becoming chaotic or clumsy. Further, the entire film is shot beautifully, which keeps it enchanting from beginning to end. Pastel hues of silk dresses, ample use of natural light, and the dim glow of candles illuminating the dinner table at nightfall, all give the film a soft, hazy quality.
Lingering establishing shots impel the viewer to take in the grand columns of the majestic school building and its overgrown gardens, accompanied by the hum of insects or distant booms of war, not threatening enough to bring urgency to the dreamy setting. The stillness and isolation of the house gives the impression that the story is suspended in time, adding to the suspense – like a pendulum slowing, about to swing back into motion at any moment.
Finally, each member of the small cast gives a polished individual performance, and collectively there is a genuine sisterly dynamic. Collectively flustered the girls deftly compete for McBurney's attention, exchanging subtle glances and carefully selected words, steeped with inferences. Nicole Kidman's gives a brilliant performance as the strict matriarch, Miss Martha, her perfectly elocuted digs characterising the undercurrent of subtle resentment in the house. Her portrayal has depth as we see her well-kept composure give way, betraying bitterness, fear, and lust. Fanning splendidly depicts the adolescent vulnerability and rebellion of Miss Alicia, the eldest of the students, who is bored of girlishness and self-consciously experimenting with womanhood. Dunst, too, gives a refined performance, however, her role as Edwina affords her less scope to flourish. Lastly, Farrell is charming as ever, employing his rich Irish voice to disarm the ladies with devastating effect. He flickers effortlessly from paternal amusement, to an ardent lover or humble soldier. However, when the tension takes its toll, and the mask slips, his darker side is every bit as convincing as his preceding charisma.
Overall, The Beguiled is a captivating and sumptuous watch. Although it chronicles a simple tale, its triumph is in the care given to subtle details, leaving a rich film with plenty of depth. The beautiful costumes, setting, and lighting all transport you to another moment, and invite you to savour it, too. It is not an obvious film, the viewer must read between the lines, decipher inferred meanings and unyielding porcelain faces, something I found refreshing.
Exposed watched The Beguiled at The Light Cinema.

My mother spent the day Sunday in the Emergency Room so I kind of feel bad for poking fun at her, but I sorta can�t help it. Then she says something off cue while I am Googling talking to her on the phone, �Honey maybe that�s all life is. Doing the research.�
That woman, my mother, breathes life in me with the preservation of the Rod Stewart song Forever Young every day of my life.
****** ******* ****
Bundled in a winter coat with the hood tightly pulled over her head she plucked her hand in the pocket and decided to put an end to it. The woman next to her continued to drone on, she had enough. Her fingers scrolled through the phone in a determined fashion to make the woman stop obsessing over details. She landed on my name and hit send as though she was getting on a plane escaping the conversation for one less cumbersome.
I rolled over the usual five minutes before the alarm went off staring at the ceiling when a buzzing noise emenated from the floor. My sister was giving me a 6:00 am wake up call on her walk to Starbucks with our Mother.
C: You awake?
J: Yes
C: Tsssss. Yeah right, I woke you up, admit it.
I pulled the covers over my head and crawled back inside the cocoon bending my legs into the fetal position
J: No, no. I�ve been awake for a whole ten minutes.
C: Yeah, and you're getting a boob job.
We both laughed at the sarcasm of her statements.
C: Mom�s stressing. She thinks you�re going to be upset because she didn�t go all out this year and make the house look like the North Pole.
J: She�s worried what I think? Because the place won�t be perfect for ME?
C: Yeah. Tell her.
She hands the phone to our Very Holy Mother who has a way of drooling Hello with a smile.
VHM: Hellluoo.
J: You�re not going all out for Christmas? Mother, you�re really setting a bad example.
Laughing she hands the phone back to my sister.
C: And she bought you more mace.
Maybe it worked back in the days of gun slingers doing the ten step waltz and when lunacy was authorized as danger, but mace is a rotten protection weapon for present-day. This world of women trying to protect themselves, and behave like human beings wearing broken brass knuckles acting more like mental cases is down right asinine. I�m putting my shit kicking boots on to complete the last details before I leave and going to my boxing class tomorrow hoping she knows, in the midst of her research, all those lessons hit home. I know it�s less about the decorations and more about the company.
I can�t wait to leave 65 degree weather and head into a 20 or 30 something degree that feels like a warm 85. Tomorrow night is for a gathering of the closest friends – the one's that have become a branch of the family we never knew we needed till we realized there also the one's we can't live without.
