text: This comparison is not really a comparison as much as the question of what looks better. This small battle is done by AndroidCentral, who apparently was at the Windows Phone 7 launch event that Microsoft spoke about the lack of Copy and Paste as something not relevant. The comparison also brings the Evo4G into the battle and let me sum it up for you... HD7 wins that one for looks. I am posting this to see what you guys think of these new line of phones. I have a picture that I will attach below of what last years top devices for each OS (except iPhone) looked like, and compare them to these years. The technology has advanced at a pretty great speed, and I am personally enjoying the changes that comes into the market and how it effects our Droids. What do you think of all these things? I personally cannot hate what Microsoft is cooking until I try it in November, but for now... I want to know what you think of it. Checkout the picture collection

Lots of new updates this week!
I finally bit the bullet and sat down early this week and started my charms. I found I was so caught up in figuring out a perfect design in my head that I wasn't actually coming up with anything. Creative block was certainly setting in. I decided just to pull up my chair to my bench and start playing around with some standard design shapes and this is what I came up with:
Due to the sky rocketing cost of sterling silver, I opted to do the majority of my charms in copper but I did sneak in some sterling casting grain to the design. I also wanted to add a splash of color to my charms with some torch fired enamels. Here is my finished charm prototype:
Back of charm:
I am quite happy with my final results. One down. Twenty one to go!
Laura from SimplyAdorning shared her charm design progress.
She says, " I have my concept figured out, it will probably end up being a round charm, but here's the idea of it. I took a Zentangle drawing class and it was both fun and inspiring, so I wanted to try and translate it to metal...it will be mixed metal, with riveting."
Shae from citizenobjects has been busy working on her charms too.
She shares this about her charms: "I finally have gotten underway. I thought I had it all figured out months ago, and then of course at the last minute I had an epiphany! Here are WIP photos and a prototype- don't worry, the real charms will be much nicer (I hope). The engineering of this took me a while- I am sure you sneaky jewelers could have done it in your sleep."
Until next time...

Kimberley Chambers has just started her weekend with a 3km training swim but, in a crowded restaurant in San Francisco's Marina District, looks enviably fresh. For Chambers, used to smearing engine oil on her body to prevent chafing during long, gruelling hours swimming in cold, open water, 3km in a pool is child's play.
Chambers leads a double life in San Francisco. During office hours, this tall, athletic woman is a software designer for Adobe. In her spare time, she swims - very long distances.
The 35-year-old grew up on a sheep, cattle and deer farm south of Te Kuiti. Her passion as a child was ballet - she danced from the age of 2 until she was 17 when she left New Zealand for San Francisco to study at the University of California in Berkeley. Her swimming experience was limited to primary school swimming lessons.
But in 2007 everything changed. Chambers had just turned 30 and was at her former boyfriend's apartment in San Francisco when she fell down a flight of stairs. She hit her right leg hard and as it began to swell alarmingly, she applied ice.
Passing off the injury as a bruise that would disappear, Chambers wasn't worried. Then eight hours later, her leg collapsed from under her.
The severe blow to Chambers' shin had caused one of four internal compartments in the leg to swell. The leg muscles were wrapped in a layer of fibrous tissue with no give, so the pressure caused by the swelling couldn't subside. The nerves were cut off from all blood flow and began to die. Chambers was in trouble.
In hospital, a surgeon told her she had come within 30 minutes of facing amputation. Part of the leg had died. As doctors battled to save the leg, they were uncertain what functionality would return.
Surgery meant slicing open her calf lengthways on both sides to relieve the pressure, leaving gaping wounds that needed major skin grafts taken from her thigh to help the heeling.
Doped up on morphine, Chambers remembers hearing the news she could be permanently disabled.
"But I still remember at that moment I knew I wasn't going to accept that. I didn't want to be disabled."
Almost two years of fulltime physical therapy and four surgeries later, Chambers still walked with a limp and couldn't travel far on foot. She was told she would not be able to run again.
As a self-confessed gym rat, an accomplished dancer and a rower at Berkeley, Chambers thought she'd give swimming a go.
"I thought in the very least that swimming might be freeing," she says.
Soon, Chambers wasn't letting herself out of the pool unless she'd completed 80 lengths. Friends invited her for a swim in San Francisco Bay. The open water and the chill - the temperature can sink as low as 8C - became addictive. "You get out and you feel like you've conquered the world," she says.
Chambers' swimming gradually escalated in seriousness. Friends encouraged her to complete the Escape From Alcatraz triathlon early in 2010: the course begins with a 1.6km swim from Alcatraz to San Francisco city and ends with a mountainous 13km run.
"I didn't even think about it at first. I didn't want to set myself up for disappointment. But my friends got me to try it and I did a practice run. I wasn't fast but I could run," Chambers says.
Her leg held up fine. She came in towards the back of the pack, but the results were inconsequential.
"People told me I couldn't do it," Chambers says, grinning just at the memory of the achievement. Later that year she entered a 26km run, two laps of that same mountainous course, competing in pouring rain.
She finished hours after other competitors but a professional photographer captured a grinning Chambers, covered in mud, at the end. "The result didn't matter. I was just having the time of my life."
That conquest drove her to test what she was capable of in the water.
The conversation turns to her first long distance swim in May 2011, a team relay swim from San Francisco to the tiny Farallon Islands, almost 50km off shore.
The small crop of islands is renowned for its shark population and is part of the infamous "Red Triangle", home to a fair chunk of the world's shark attacks. It is here that tourist operators offer cage diving with great whites as an attraction.
"Every stroke I took I thought it's going to be my arms or my legs," she says, laughing.
Two weeks later Chambers gathered an all-women team to do this same swim. She volunteered to take the final leg of the swim in the dark and closest to land, where the sharks like to congregate.
She finished the year with relay swims around Manhattan Island and across the English Channel and then made her first mistake. In a fit of bravado, Chambers attempted to do a spontaneous solo crossing of the channel. She was ill prepared and had not trained. "I got pulled half way. I was just a mess." Disappointed, she vowed she would be back.
Last year, she began concentrating on solo conquests and this time she was prepared. While visiting her parents in Te Kuiti that March, Chambers took on the Cook Strait, swimming from the South Island to Wellington.
She survived 6m swells during the 8-hour swim. Shortly afterwards she had trouble breathing and was admitted to Wellington Hospital for oxygen and rehydration.
"The doctors looked at me so strangely when I told them I'd just swum Cook Strait. It was like they were giving me a pysch evaluation."
Chambers visits New Zealand whenever she can, returning four times last year alone. She still considers herself a proud Kiwi and swims in a skullcap emblazoned with the New Zealand flag.
Eventually, she will move home. But not before she has conquered a few more stretches of open water.
In August last year she swam 35km across Lake Tahoe, a swim made more gruelling by the lack of buoyancy in fresh water.
In September, Chambers was part of a team that attempted the world's longest-ever relay swim of 545km down the California coast, raising $1.2 million for the Semper Fi fund that assists injured marines.
The relay swim was halted after six days and more than 300km because of incessant attacks from jellyfish. Chambers' stomach looked like she had the measles, she says.
In November she swam 42km across Hawaii's Molokai Channel to Oahu, waters infested with tiger sharks and Portuguese man-of-war jellyfish. She was stung 50 times during the nearly 20 hours she was in the water.
The rapidity of Chambers' progression belies the raw, brutal physicality of it all. The salt water makes her lips and tongue swell.
She swims with a support boat nearby and a skipper yelling out to give her the right level of tough love to keep her going.
There is a kayaker also, a marker to keep her swimming in the right direction. She coats her body in engine oil in an effort to stop the chafing that can add to the agony.
The sheer physical and mental strain of the swim usually brings Chambers to tears while she swims. Adrenaline shields her from much of the pain, but her body is useless in the days afterwards.
Numb with adrenaline, she cannot remember those victorious times - the moment she reaches shore.
She has to gain weight before each major swim to help insulate her from the cold but even so has to warm up slowly to make sure she doesn't pass out as blood returns to the extremities.
"I don't know how I do it," Chambers says. "But when I'm out there I feel so alive. That sense of purpose you feel on the swim is amazing."
The completely unrestrained way Chambers has jumped head first into this world, and achieved remarkable success, has annoyed some open-water swimmers.
Now ranked number 25 in the world of open-water swimming, in less than two years she has mastered distances people have trained a lifetime for: "I get a lot of flak from people. Who are you? What are you doing?"
As always, Chambers is looking ahead to her next big open-water swim. She has lined up a crossing of the English Channel for September and has two more swims planned that she says are a secret.
She has the famed Oceans Seven in her sights, a collection of the most difficult seven swims from all seven continents of the world.
She has already completed two - Cook Strait and the Molokai Channel.
Only one person in the world, Irishman Stephen Redmond, has done all seven. If Chambers has her way, she will be the first woman.
Before her English Channel crossing, Chambers will swim four or five times a week for several hours in a pool 20 minutes north of San Francisco as well as the bay each day.
Her American boyfriend, Joe Locke, whom she met through swimming, keeps her on-task. "He's an amazing support network. He gets how tough this is," she says.
Chambers knows eventually age will get the better of her and she'll have to stop. Her mother worries constantly about her on the long swims and has hinted more than once about the possibility of grandchildren.
"I don't know yet whether that request will be granted,"she laughs. "We'll see."
So far Chambers has done her open-water swims without the help of sponsors, covering her expenses from what she earns in her day job.
Non-swimmers don't quite get it. "Once you start to say that you swim without a wetsuit and the size of the stretches of water, people walk wide circles around you," she says.
After hours swimming in cold, shark-infested water, Chambers has come to terms with the risks she faces. She tries not to think about it too much and, typically, turns the subject into a joke.
"I read a joke on Facebook the other day that said, 'If someone came into my house in the middle of the night just wearing a Speedo, I'd kill him too'."
Her new life exhilarates her.
"Life on land is so structured and so safe. I like having this other side of things where I roll the dice. I wasn't living before I injured my leg."


text: Meet Rachael Mackay - one of our new graduates. We spent a minute with one of our newest recruits, Rachael Mackay to get a feel for how she is settling in and what led her to want to forge a career as a Registered Music Therapist (RMT). Rachael is a country girl from Oberon and spent most of her childhood in and around the Blue Mountains. Rachael completed her Masters of Creative Music Therapy in 2016 and joined the Nordoff-Robbins team this year. Why did you choose to study music therapy? I chose to study music therapy because 1) I love music and 2) I've been fortunate to grow up seeing the benefits it has on my sister who acquired a brain injury at age three. So it has been quite a personally driven career choice as I look to help others with a variety of needs. What is your favourite part about being an RMT? The best thing about being an RMT is watching music make a difference. Being relatively new to the profession it has been humbling and inspiring to be around and learn from the strong, vulnerable, and resilient people I get to work with. Most challenging part of the job so far? Well, it's only been a couple of months and there are a lot of songs that go into our sessions as everyone has different tastes and needs. So the pressure to learn enough songs is always there. There are so many aspects to music therapy and sometimes you feel like a jack-of-all-trades, it's quite the balancing act. How many instruments do you play? My main instruments are the clarinet and saxophone. But I also play piano, guitar and sing. Is there a particular instrument you want to learn and why? Steel Drums. Because they just sound so happy. Who is your favourite musician/band and why? A singer songwriter named Lior, he has a real gift for storytelling.

During an April 10 Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities (DPU) hearing in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, residents and business owners rallied against an Eversource Energy rate hike request.
Eversource has requested approval to raise delivery rates by more than $96 million next year and $50 million annually for the next four years. For residential customers in the western part of the state, such a rate hike would add $11.64 to the average monthly bill. For those living in the east, the average monthly increase would be $8.45. If approved, these hikes would begin Jan. 1, 2018.
For businesses, the proposal would increase rates up to 37 percent in the west while rates for east-based business would decline.
Eversource claims to need the rate hike to offset an operating deficit of $96 million. Electrical rates for those in Massachusetts are among the highest in the country.
About 275 people packed the April 10 hearing in Pittsfield. The DPU will be hosting similar hearings about the rate hike throughout the state. Many residents and business owners offered strong opposition to the increase. For example, Patricia C. Begrowicz, the president of Onyx Specialty Papers in Lee, Massachusetts, said the increases would raise the amount the company pays for electricity from $775,000 to $1.2 million.
The increases would also affect local governments. For example, Pittsfield's energy bill would increase $1.3 million under the proposal, according to Pittsfield Mayor Linda Tyer.
The Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey is also seeking to stop the Eversource rate hikes. "It is time to return money to customers, not to raise their electric bills to benefit a highly profitable utility company," Healy said at the hearing in Pittsfield.

Signs of Life at the NYC Greenmarket
We noticed a lot of people with their cameras out this morning in Union Square. Photogenic spring produce, like this bountiful pile of scallions, is finally becoming more plentiful in New York.
See radishes, asparagus, and spinach below...
Slice up these radishes for the vegetable summer rolls we shared with you yesterday.
The slightly purple tops on these New Jersey asparagus were beautiful. We'd use them in a stir-fry or top them with hollandaise for brunch.
How about a spring spinach salad? Or make some spring pesto with spinach.
Happy shopping!

Lamentações 1
1 [^1] How deserted lies the city, ¶ once so full of people! ¶ How like a widow is she, ¶ who once was great among the nations! ¶ She who was queen among the provinces ¶ has now become a slave.
2 Bitterly she weeps at night, ¶ tears are on her cheeks. ¶ Among all her lovers ¶ there is no one to comfort her. ¶ All her friends have betrayed her; ¶ they have become her enemies.
3 After affliction and harsh labor, ¶ Judah has gone into exile. ¶ She dwells among the nations; ¶ she finds no resting place. ¶ All who pursue her have overtaken her ¶ in the midst of her distress.
4 The roads to Zion mourn, ¶ for no one comes to her appointed festivals. ¶ All her gateways are desolate, ¶ her priests groan, ¶ her young women grieve, ¶ and she is in bitter anguish.
5 Her foes have become her masters; ¶ her enemies are at ease. ¶ The LORD has brought her grief ¶ because of her many sins. ¶ Her children have gone into exile, ¶ captive before the foe.
6 All the splendor has departed ¶ from Daughter Zion. ¶ Her princes are like deer ¶ that find no pasture; ¶ in weakness they have fled ¶ before the pursuer.
7 In the days of her affliction and wandering ¶ Jerusalem remembers all the treasures ¶ that were hers in days of old. ¶ When her people fell into enemy hands, ¶ there was no one to help her. ¶ Her enemies looked at her ¶ and laughed at her destruction.
8 Jerusalem has sinned greatly ¶ and so has become unclean. ¶ All who honored her despise her, ¶ for they have all seen her naked; ¶ she herself groans ¶ and turns away.
9 Her filthiness clung to her skirts; ¶ she did not consider her future. ¶ Her fall was astounding; ¶ there was none to comfort her. ¶ "Look, LORD, on my affliction, ¶ for the enemy has triumphed."
10 The enemy laid hands ¶ on all her treasures; ¶ she saw pagan nations ¶ enter her sanctuary — ¶ those you had forbidden ¶ to enter your assembly.
11 All her people groan ¶ as they search for bread; ¶ they barter their treasures for food ¶ to keep themselves alive. ¶ "Look, LORD, and consider, ¶ for I am despised."
12 "Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? ¶ Look around and see. ¶ Is any suffering like my suffering ¶ that was inflicted on me, ¶ that the LORD brought on me ¶ in the day of his fierce anger?
13 "From on high he sent fire, ¶ sent it down into my bones. ¶ He spread a net for my feet ¶ and turned me back. ¶ He made me desolate, ¶ faint all the day long.
14 "My sins have been bound into a yoke [^2] ; ¶ by his hands they were woven together. ¶ They have been hung on my neck, ¶ and the Lord has sapped my strength. ¶ He has given me into the hands ¶ of those I cannot withstand.
15 "The Lord has rejected ¶ all the warriors in my midst; ¶ he has summoned an army against me ¶ to [^3] crush my young men. ¶ In his winepress the Lord has trampled ¶ Virgin Daughter Judah.
16 "This is why I weep ¶ and my eyes overflow with tears. ¶ No one is near to comfort me, ¶ no one to restore my spirit. ¶ My children are destitute ¶ because the enemy has prevailed."
17 Zion stretches out her hands, ¶ but there is no one to comfort her. ¶ The LORD has decreed for Jacob ¶ that his neighbors become his foes; ¶ Jerusalem has become ¶ an unclean thing among them.
18 "The LORD is righteous, ¶ yet I rebelled against his command. ¶ Listen, all you peoples; ¶ look on my suffering. ¶ My young men and young women ¶ have gone into exile.
19 "I called to my allies ¶ but they betrayed me. ¶ My priests and my elders ¶ perished in the city ¶ while they searched for food ¶ to keep themselves alive.
20 "See, LORD, how distressed I am! ¶ I am in torment within, ¶ and in my heart I am disturbed, ¶ for I have been most rebellious. ¶ Outside, the sword bereaves; ¶ inside, there is only death.
21 "People have heard my groaning, ¶ but there is no one to comfort me. ¶ All my enemies have heard of my distress; ¶ they rejoice at what you have done. ¶ May you bring the day you have announced ¶ so they may become like me.
22 "Let all their wickedness come before you; ¶ deal with them ¶ as you have dealt with me ¶ because of all my sins. ¶ My groans are many ¶ and my heart is faint."

Aerith's most prominent feature is her pink dress, so put extra work into finding the right fabric and shade of pink. An oxblood-colored bolero is the normal accompaniment. Carrying around a basket of flowers is important, as that is how Aerith first appears in "Final Fantasy VII." Another good prop is a bo-staff or similar pole.
Large brown boots along with large bangles on the wrists should be included for the most authentic look possible. Keep in mind that the above tips are for the version of Aerith featured in the original "Final Fantasy VII." Her other, less famous attire worn in the events before "Final Fantasy VII" consists of a simple white-and-blue dress. If this is the preferred costume, omit the staff or other pole-type weapon. The basket full of flowers would be the best replacement prop, as her character never takes part in any battles while carrying it, though she is known as a flower girl from the slums for the entirety of the series.
A bright pink hair ribbon should be present regardless of the version being cosplayed. For extra authenticity, add a white ball within the ribbon to represent the magic materia given to Aerith by her mother. Use hair gel, hairspray, egg whites or the lather of inexpensive white soap to achieve her signature forked hair look. Remember to back-comb vigorously.

Bradford Playhouse1 1 Share Tweet
Old eccentric little place, very unique… my favourite spot in Bradford!
Based in Little Germany in Bradford's city centre (West Yorkshire), the Bradford Playhouse has a proud heritage, as a unique building with many of its historic features intact.
It was originally known as Bradford Civic Playhouse, later it became The Priestley or The Priestley Centre for the Arts and now it is known as Bradford Playhouse and Film Theatre.
The Civic was founded in 1929, originally as an offshoot of Leeds Civic Playhouse, but became independent in 1932, with J. B. Priestley as its President.
I think this place is brilliant, the staff are friendly and there's a nice bar in the basement. I love to go there with my friends and have a nice cuppa (yes, we don't do alcohol, although there's a lot to choose from). At the moment, the bar doesn't look exactly like in the pictures I took because it has been renewed, but it still looks very cool.
They offer a huge range of events, including theatre, film, exhibitions, dance… and parties! These guys really know how to throw a party, they do it at least once a week! Also, don't forget the concerts, I've been to a few and I can say they're worth it, especially if you're looking for something different.
Add them on facebook because you don't want to miss these events, such as the "Totally Massive Extravaganza", the "trash@theplayhouse" and other events with similar cool names!

Aron Ralston doesn't immediately strike you as someone needing to change. Sure he's brash, but
the 2 attractive hitch-hikers he comes across at the start of the movie seem to find that trait more charming than anything else - and once they plunge with him into an beautiful hot spring, infinitely exciting. This is a man who clearly knows how to live his life to the fullest, and particularly enjoys living it while exploring the canyons of Utah. Recklessness comes at a price though - and 15 minutes into the movie, Aron literally finds himself between a rock and a hard place a boulder traps his right arm while he navigates the depths of Blue John Canyon. He will spend 127 hours - and the movie's entire running time - pinned here.
Doesn't sound like the most enticing watch does it ?
What cinematic good could possibly come of this astonishingly limited setup ?
You'd be surprised.
Danny Boyle works with a true life account to craft a rousing story about the triumph of the human spirit, all within the confines of a crevice in a canyon. Ralston is aided by a resourceful demeanor, a video camera to keep him company, and in the movie's most brutal scene, a somewhat dull, low quality knife. I don't consider it much of a spoiler to inform you that his freedom, 127 hours later, comes from amputating his own arm : the real Ralston's story is famous enough, and it really isn't the point here.
No, where the movie soars is when it taps into Ralston's mind as he forces himself to keep it together against all odds; when he soaks in the 15 minutes of sunlight he receives each morning; when he takes comfort from the well-timed flight of a raven above him; when he starts making free-wheeling associations with his past based on his surroundings and drifts into reveries of what has been and what could have been.
Ralston's decided to come adventuring in the wilderness without informing anyone of his whereabouts, because of course, he can do everything himself - he doesn't need anyone looking out for him. As we jog through flashes of his memory, he looks back on a life of independence and letting go in pursuit of his idea of freedom. It comes down to an epiphany - it is his entire lifetime of reckless choices and unwarranted brash individuality that has brought him towards the boulder that pins him down so mercilessly. The boulder is a chance for him to finally become the kind of person that can let himself lean on someone.
The adventure within Ralston's mind is brought to life by an incredibly committed performance by James Franco. The camera focuses unwaveringly on him as he moves through cycles of anger, frustration, resignation, even manic humour, building up to the inevitable choice he must make. The extended sequence of him attacking his arm is the movie's great set piece, and one of the most visceral pieces of filmmaking you will see in a cinema hall for a long time. Its incredibly punishing to watch - but almost impossible to look away. Cutting off that arm is going to push Ralston towards requiring the kind of support he's always thought he can do without, and there's a powerful marriage of acting, visuals and unwavering direction that bring this journey to life.
"I need help !" he shouts at one point, with a tinge of surprise in his voice. Then, once again, loudly, more emphatically - "I need help !"
Its a wonderfully joyous moment.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Faced with alarming trends in obesity, diabetes and related problems, some of the nation's largest health foundations came together in 2006 in a movement aimed at promoting healthy eating and physical activity.
Five years later, that movement, the Convergence Partnership, continues and its work and organizational model are spreading regionally.
For example, in Pennsylvania, the partnership helped fund the Fresh Food Financing Initiative after a national study showed that Philadelphia had the second lowest number of supermarkets per capita of any major U.S. city.
The so-called, "food deserts" in that city's low-income neighborhoods were linked to high rates of obesity, diabetes and other nutrition-related ailments. The initiative, drawing on public and private dollars, established a fund that has encouraged private developers to launch grocery stores in underserved areas.
The program's components include a bank-syndicated supermarket loan fund, the federal New Markets Tax Credit and direct grants to store operators and developers.
As of June, 2010, more than $73 million in loans and $12.1 million in grants had been awarded in Pennsylvania. The approved projects were expected to create more than 5,000 jobs and more than 1.6 million square feet of commercial shopping space.
The initiative received an Innovations in Government award from Harvard University.
There now are convergence movements underway in at least nine states.
Midwest partnership
Having seen some of the successes that developed elsewhere in the country, a Missouri Convergence Partnership is being developed.
Jane Mosley, a program officer with the Health Forward Foundation, which is a partnership member, said the Missouri convergence effort is still in its, "embryonic" stage.
But it is already clear, she said, as when any big idea gets discussed in Kansas City, the state line dividing the metro area is sure to come into play sooner or later.
For that reason, members of the Missouri Convergence Partnership are looking for ways to include Kansas.
"We would like to see more of a regional approach," Mosley said. "It's a challenge for us. It does not make a lot of sense for us to stop at the state line."
The Missouri Convergence Partnership was established in 2008 under the leadership of Amy Stringer Hessel, a program officer at the Missouri Foundation for Health in St. Louis. It was among the first state organizations modeled on the national Convergence Partnership.
"The whole goal is to figure out what funders can do better together than they can separately," Mosley said.
Promoting local produce
One idea that Missouri partnership members have shown interest in as they develop the group's future agenda is promoting the use of locally produced farm products in schools, hospitals and other places that serve large numbers of people.
"There are different things that can be done," Mosley said, "to get healthier food into large-scale institutions."
Another Missouri Convergence Partnership member is Gretchen Kunkel, president of KC Healthy Kids, a nonprofit organization dedicated to reducing obesity and otherwise improving children's health.
"I hope the Convergence Partnership will choose one or two specific topics and gather up the financial and policy support needed to see change across the state," Kunkel said. "We may choose to do something like put together a distribution mechanism to get farm-fresh foods into institutions like schools, restaurants and health-care institutions."
In that example, Kunkel said, Convergence Partnership members would be, "investing in infrastructures so that there would be a way for small-volume producers to get food into the distribution system at a price that's competitive with tomatoes grown on large farms in Mexico and shipped here."
Kunkel said there also are programs that can be accomplished with the help of local governments such as "Complete Streets," planning which calls for building codes that require bike lanes or broad sidewalks that encourage walking or biking.
Ground rules
But before the partnership can undertake any fresh-produce pipeline or complete-street plans, the group must first finish laying the ground rules for itself.
"It has been two-plus years of gathering information and trying to figure out the right way for the partnership to proceed," Mosley said, noting that there still remain a number of details to be worked out.
For example, she said, "We (The Health Forward Foundation) have geographical restrictions on our funding and others do, too. It's not as simple as putting money into a pot and saying we will all pay for this. We are trying to figure out how to navigate the process and do more than just fund our grantees."
All that could be sorted out soon.
"The goal is to have a model platform with two or three areas we have designated to move toward," Mosley said. "We are not there yet, but we hope to be in the next couple of months. We are trying to hire someone to be the logistical coordinator…We need someone to provide the glue to keep it together."
The partnership's members, besides those already mentioned, include representatives of some of Missouri's major institutions and businesses:
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas City, the Community Foundation of the Ozarks, the Heartland Foundation of St. Joseph, the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services, the Missouri Foundation for Health, the University of Missouri-Columbia and Washington University in St. Louis.
In Kansas
For now, there is less interest in the national convergence partnership model among Kansas' health foundations because the major ones already had histories predating the national group of working with other organizations and on projects to encourage healthy eating or exercise.
For example, the Sunflower Foundation, headquartered in Topeka, began funding hiking and biking trails in 2005. There now are more than 70 Sunflower trails in more than 30 counties across the state.
"In Kansas, there's a whole lot of healthy eating, healthy living activity going on," as part of the health foundations' project work, said Sunflower Chief Executive Billie Hall.
She also said Sunflower officials would be holding a retreat next week to determine some future directions the foundation might take and one thing being considered is a healthy eating project, "that will probably focus mostly in schools."
Hall said the "convergence movement" among foundations in other states, "really came from national funders looking to work with state funders."
The Kansas Health Foundation in Wichita already had established funding partnerships with other organizations throughout Kansas, including some focused on promoting healthy life styles, so there is no new effort underway there to establish a Convergence Partnership, as such, said KHF Vice President for Communications Christopher Power.

Washington: Scientists have been working on electronic devices that dissolve completely in water, leaving behind only harmless end products.
Led by John A. Rogers from the University of Illinois, early results of the study demonstrated the entire complement of building blocks for integrated circuits, along with various sensors and actuators with relevance to clinical medicine, including most recently intracranial monitors for patients with traumatic brain injury. The advances suggested a new era of devices that range from green consumer electronics to 'electroceutical' therapies, to biomedical sensor systems that do their work and then disappear.
Practical applications might include: bioresorbable devices that reduce infection at a surgical site. Other examples are temporary implantable systems, such as electrical brain monitors to aid rehabilitation from traumatic injuries or electrical simulators to accelerate bone growth. Additional classes of devices can even be used for programmed drug delivery, Rogers said.
Such envisioned uses were all best satisfied by devices that provide robust, reliable, high performance operation, but only for a finite period of time dictated, for example, by the healing process-they were not only biologically compatible, but they were biologically punctual, performing when and as the body needed them.
After their function had been fulfilled, they disappeared through resorption into the body, thereby eliminating unnecessary device load, without the need for additional surgical operations. In terms of consumer electronics, the technology holds promise for reducing the environmental footprint of the next generation of "green" devices.
Rogers would be presenting the results at the AVS 61st International Symposium and Exhibition in November 2014.

One of the common struggles that goes with being autistic is maintaining a regular sleep schedule. For a lot of us, it just doesn't happen. Last night was a rough night, in which I did get a lot of sleep, but it was at the wrong time: 6PM to 1:30AM. After getting a full night's sleep, I was ready to kick some ass. What to do?

EP resolution on Belarus: No concessions in democracy matters
The European Parliament has adopted a provisional resolution on the political situation in Belarus.
The resolution was adopted by 551 votes in favour, 15 against and 31 abstentions.
Here is the text of the resolution, published on European Parliament's website.
The EU strategy towards Belarus: MEPs stress the need for greater democratisation
MEPs insist on five conditions to improve relations between Belarus and the EU in a resolution adopted in Strasbourg. Freedom for political prisoners, media NGOs and political associations are the main points underlined by the European Parliament to renew the period of six months during which travel restrictions imposed on certain Belarus Government officials have been lifted.
In order to significantly improve relations with the EU, the European Parliament points out five conditions in a resolution adopted by 551 votes in favour, 15 against and 31 abstentions. According to MEPs, Belarus should:
(1) remain a country without political prisoners,
(2) guarantee freedom of expression for the media,
(3) continue to cooperate with the OSCE on reform of the electoral law,
(4) improve conditions for the work of NGOs and
(5) guarantee freedom of assembly and political association.
In October 2008, the Council had decided that the travel restrictions imposed on certain Belarus Government officials would not apply for a period of six months, which may be renewed, with the exception of those involved in the disappearances that occurred in 1999 and 2000 and of the Chair of the Central Electoral Commission.
In order to end the country's self-imposed isolation from the rest of Europe, MEPs urge the Belarusian government to respect human rights by (1) making changes to the Belarus Criminal Code, (2) refraining from threatening criminal prosecution, (3) eliminating all obstacles to the proper registration of NGOs in Belarus, (4) improving the treatment of and respect for national minorities.
Belarusian democratic opposition should be a part of a dialog aimed at phased strengthening of relations between the EU and Belarus.
Freedom of political association and media
Parliament acknowledges that some efforts have been made by the Belarusian authorities, in particular the decision to register the 'For Freedom' movement headed by former Belarusian presidential candidate Aliaksandr Milinkevich.
MEPs welcome the allowance of the printing and distribution of the two independent newspapers,Narodnaia Volia and Nasha Niva. Otherwise, they point out that there are still 13 independent newspapers awaiting registration. MEPs also welcome the decision by the Belarusian Government to discuss the international Internet media standards and to consult the Belarusian Association of Journalists. They ask for financial support to the independent Belarusian television channel Belsat and the official registration of this channel.
Political prisoners and death penalty
Parliament welcomes the release of political prisoners in Belarus but also criticises the fact that some other activists remain subject to various forms of restrictions on their freedom.
MEPs also condemn the fact that Belarus is the only country in Europe which still has the death penalty and call on the authorities to respect freedom of religion.
Cost of visas and 'European Humanities University' in exile
Further steps should be taken to liberalise visa procedures for Belarusian citizens, especially by reducing the cost of visas to enter the Schengen Area and simplifying the procedure for obtaining them.
The European Parliament deplores the repeated decisions by the Belarusian authorities to refuse entrance visas to Members of the European Parliament and national parliamentarians.
MEPs also call on the Council and Commission to urge the Belarusian Government to enable the 'European Humanities University' in exile in Vilnius to return legally to Belarus and re-establish itself in Minsk.
Parliament urges the Czech Presidency to make it a priority to negotiate an EU-wide agreement with the Belarusian authorities allowing children to travel from Belarus to any EU Member State organising such recuperation programmes.
The European Parliament urged the Belarusian authorities to follow international security standards when constructing a new nuclear power station, and ratify an additional protocol to a comprehensive safeguards agreement of the International Atomic Energy Agency.


text: Two-Time Cancer Survivor Offers Advice for Fellow Cancer Patients "I was in my late forties when I received my colon cancer diagnosis," says Maryalice Grzesik of South Hadley. "I was very surprised." She says, "The first couple of days were tough. I went through feeling sad and unable to speak about the cancer without crying." Grzesik remembers not being happy when her doctor first recommended she have a colonoscopy to screen for cancer. Now she's glad she listened. "Fourteen years later, I look upon her wisdom as a gift. Had I not followed her advice, I would not be here today," says Grzesik. Dr. Armen Asik from the Baystate Regional Cancer Program was Grzesik's medical oncologist. "He was fabulous," she says. "The individualized treatment plan and great care I got close to home are what made me well again." Diagnosis #2 This past spring, Grzesik faced cancer for a second time after a routine screening mammogram at the Baystate Breast & Wellness Center. A biopsy confirmed she had breast cancer. Thankfully, it was caught early. "I knew right away I wanted to receive my care close to home again with the experts at the Baystate Regional Cancer Program," she says. "I met [breast surgeon] Dr. Holly Mason and was immediately impressed with her compassionate demeanor. She explained things in a way that helped me understand every detail." Grzesik continues, "Everyone involved in my care—from the valet staff, to the receptionist, to the surgeons—were amazing! They patiently explained the different treatment options available to me, from a lumpectomy to a mastectomy, including the chemotherapy and radiation therapies available. Every step of my journey was choreographed with precision. Every appointment was another opportunity to ask more questions and have concerns clarified. I believe that was the key to making my journey successful." Grzesik opted for a lumpectomy performed using radioactive seed implantation. Radiologist Dr. Steven Allen performed the seed implantation, and Mason performed the lumpectomy. Mason says, "Breast cancer treatment is all about teamwork, from beginning to end. Our goal at Baystate Breast & Wellness Center is to simplify the transitions between the various providers involved in a patient's care, and to explain the roles of each provider and each kind of treatment. The time of a breast cancer diagnosis is extremely stressful; we try to reduce that stress through support, guidance, and education." Lessons Learned "If I were to speak to a cancer patient today, I would tell them first, follow your doctor's instructions," says Grzesik. "Don't let family or friends give you medical advice. The doctors are the experts." She continues, "I would also tell them to rely on their family and friends for comfort and support. My husband went to all my appointments. This was helpful on so many levels to me. Each person, whether it's your doctor, family member, or friend, has a unique role in your well-being." Adds Grzesik: "With the great staff at the Baystate Regional Cancer Program I never felt alone." For more information about the Baystate Regional Cancer Program or to schedule an appointment, call 413-794-9338.

Washington: British Defence Minister Liam Fox appealed on Wednesday for patience and resolve in the Afghan war, warning of the risks of a premature withdrawal of NATO troops.
Fox, stressing that Britain stood "shoulder to shoulder" with the United States during a visit to Washington, said that "this is a testing time in Afghanistan".
"The price being paid is high, the mission complex, and progress not always obvious to the eye," he said in a speech at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative think-tank.
"We must hold our nerve, maintain our resolve, and have the resilience to see the job through."
He said pulling out troops from Afghanistan too soon would allow the country to serve as a sanctuary for Islamist extremists plotting attacks against the West, damage NATO`s credibility and potentially foment a crisis in neighbouring Pakistan.
"Were we to leave prematurely, without degrading the insurgency and increasing the capability of the Afghan National Security Forces, we could see the return of the destructive forces of trans-national terror," he said.
The departure of NATO troops would create a security vacuum that could cause "the destabilisation of Pakistan with potentially unthinkable regional, and possibly nuclear, consequences."
While Fox emphasised the need to stay the course, British Prime Minister David Cameron last week said his country`s military presence in Afghanistan could not drag on indefinitely.
On the sidelines of a Group of Eight summit in Canada, Cameron said he wanted troops home from Afghanistan within five years, conceding the war-torn country would not be "perfect" before that happened.
While he would not outline a "strict timetable" for a withdrawal, Cameron said he wanted to see British troops leave before the next British general elections due by 2015.
With British, US and other NATO-led forces pushing back Taliban insurgents across the southern Helmand province, Fox said he was "cautiously optimistic" about signs of progress so far.
But he added that "the tough times are by no means over".
His visit coincided with a spike in casualties for the NATO-led force and a rising death toll for British troops. A total of 309 British soldiers have been killed in Afghanistan since the war began in 2001.
Fox said allied leaders had to prepare their countries for more casualties as coalition forces take the fight to the Taliban, toppled in a US-led invasion after the September 11 attacks.

Hello I'm Viva Max, a New York City based wedding planner. I'm glad we're meeting at such an exciting time in your life!
You are a fun-loving, and perhaps busy, couple in love with a goal of hosting an awesome party with your closest friends and family. The intimidating part is the prospect of coming home from work everyday just to wade through endless event details and a laundry list of tasks by yourselves. I am here to help. Together we prioritize your to-dos, develop your vision, and get your party planned right.
In addition to producing weddings for nearly a decade, I have also spent time selling wedding dresses, custom stationery, wedding catering services and more. I have immersed myself in an industry that I love, learning every angle, and constantly improving my ability to plan your perfect wedding.
I will be your resource, your teammate and your cheerleader, helping you make informed decisions so you can enjoy a relaxed and happy day with each other. If things get hectic, I'll be the first person there with hugs, high fives and real solutions.
I entered the wedding industry in 2004 working for a Manhattan mom and pop bridal salon, followed by a position on the planning team at the high-end wedding firm The Wedding Library. I then spent three years planning weddings for my own clients while also working as a wedding stationer for Kate's Paperie. Most recently, I developed a deeper understanding of catering logistics while planning weddings and events with the Brooklyn catering company Naturally Delicious.
Viva Max Weddings was born in 2013, and with it comes the well-rounded method that I bring from my years in the industry. My approach brings practicality, know-how, enthusiasm and spunk to the wedding planning process. Clients praise me for my relaxed but efficient, genuine and professional manner. The way that I inspire and nurture every vendor allows all the tiny pieces of a perfect wedding to come together seamlessly.

The Fourth Society of Farm Women held its Christmas meeting at the home of Barbara Witchie at Indian Lake on Dec. 10. Rev. Sylvia Baker of the Assembly of God Church in Shanksville gave the meal blessing.
After lunch Raye Diehl had devotions and spoke of the meaning of the advent season and how it helps focus on the real reason for the season.
The group also had fun taking part in a Christmas quiz. President Luella Duppstadt read an poem regarding the candle and spreading the light after which members had a "Secret Santa" candle exchange. Each member brought home baked cookies and hard candies and helped package them for sending to seven local servicemen and women stationed overseas.
The annual convention will be held in Harrisburg on Jan. 10. The new meeting will take place at the Shanksville United Methodist Church on Jan. 28.

All Critics (14) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (13) | Rotten (1) | DVD (1)
It's a strange, visionary work, highly formal and not easy of access, but compelling in a way that's almost impossible to describe.
A madly beautiful, often straight-up-bonkers meditation on the life of its eponymous Armenian-Azeri balladeer and poet.
Paradjanov scares up one startling sequence after another, crafting a bizarre mosaic of Nova's world while limiting himself to the materials of the poet's time.
One may approach it as an achievement of creativity, as an historical film, as a religious film, or even as a political film; in any case, it's rich cinematic ground for those who wish to explore unconventional art.
As a visual exercise, it's a dazzling achievement, filmed in a manner that's almost impossible to describe.
Audience Reviews for The Color of Pomegranates (Sayat Nova )
It was interesting... that's the least I can say for the beginning! And now I'll explain to you how I felt after watching this movie... My sister once went to the butcher (somewhere on the Balkan) and the guy sold her "white kidneys" - of course my sister never asked why these "kidneys" were called "white" thinking that maybe the difference is in the colour only... Well "the white kidneys" is the term used in that part of the world for "balls". That's how my sister got "balls" thinking that she paid for kidneys! My feeling after watching this film was almost identical to hers when she discovered the truth about the kidneys! Very colourful, very bold, and at the same time very static. The biggest action was when the headless chooks were struggling over the burning candles almost at the end of the movie. Everything rest was like from the old photo shoots. Maybe some people like movies with no acting and where actors are tools only, but I am not one of them... my first impression of the actors was that they must be a bunch of mentally disturbed individuals! Don't ask for chemistry here - impossible to achieve in this type of movie where everyone and everything is thrown together: Christians, Muslims, Pagans... their beliefs and customs mixed with llamas and lions... in Armenia!
Super Reviewer
This Soviet era film was hidden for a decade but finally was seen in the late seventies. Quite frankly, I have no idea what is going on half the time but the images are captivating.

I'm sorry art world. I get it...but maybe you're just not for me.

-I don't extremely delight in active to the doctor, and I'm scared out of your wits by the sight of my own blood, but I've e'er been hypnotized by the lives of my friends who dry run drug. (Side note: strange how it's called "practicing" tablets - as if it's related to employed on your rear colorful.) My gp friends appear to genuinely bask when I true pepper them next to pestiferous learned profession questions - and they as a rule cognize all the answers. Ever ask one of your attorney friends a legal question? They not-so-subtly sigh, push their eyes, then implore ignorance because it's plane the extent of their firm's tradition (again with the practicing).
That's why, when it comes to the coolest job a twentysomething can have, there's no 2d persuasion needed: the doctors are in. As a minimal hypochondriac, I determine which of my friends to revolve to for an off-the-cuff identification not by the area they alter in, but by their individualised experience. For instance, if I deem I perceive a lump, I telephone Christina - even conversely she's an anesthesiologist - because she fluff up metastatic tumor several geezerhood ago. Just suchlike when I laboured my groin, I named my buddy Shermdog - even tho' he's an orthopedic md - because he gets a lot of putrid and gum is in all probability well-versed in the intricacies of the angle subdivision.
Ever promulgation that the human who takes your blood at the doctor's office seems to have get little and little trained? It utilized to be the medical doctor who did it. Then it was the caregiver. Now it's a medical enrollee. Soon the UPS guy who comes to choice up the samples and rob them to the lab is lately gonna prick you on the way out.Post ads:

I've always wondered how doctors go for uncanny specialties. Pediatrician? Fine, you close to kids. Orthopedic surgeon? Well, fixing damaged percussive instrument is make colder. But I cognise a guy who's a internal organ professional. How did he selection the liver? You can't even crashing see it from the outside! I cognise potable can mar the liver, but it essential lug a shitload of drinking to prefer to den it.
It took eons to get an designation with my ultimate doctor, but the one I have now can e'er see me precise distant. The reality that he's so reachable kind of scares me. I telephone up and the secretarial assistant is like, "Can you come up in tomorrow?" and I'm like, "Um, well, how in the order of in 3 weeks?"
I worship when parents are so blindly dignified of their children that they'll suppose any the hellhole their kids relate them. This guy I used to lease an housing from was recitation me something like his tremendously gleeful twenty-two-year-old son. He told me, ever so proudly, that his son was an "an associate psyche operating surgeon." I had to really knee a guffaw. I just desired to say to the guy, "Yeah, that's not even a actual job. I'm beautiful certain your son sells pot."Post ads:

At smallest three masculine doctors I know are out of stock or united to female doctors. At premiere I initiative it was meet because they're always in the infirmary enclosed by respectively different and hopelessness loves group. But after I complete that the sense male doctors get married feminine doctors... is that feminine doctors are ace hot. I focus I'd like to day of the month a dr. gallus gallus quite a lot of day. After all, they activity daft hours, they build apt money, and they're not panicky by the visual percept of my liquid body substance.

As always, present are quite a few subjective belongings I've been ruminating something like lately...

The pressure for EA's NCAA March Madness to stand on it's own to feet, when compared to NBA Live, the same way NCAA Football holds its own against Madden NFL is only growing. For NCAA March Madness 06 the development team at EA has thrown in some features that are making this feel like a true college basketball game and not a stripped down NBA Live.
But several years into the experiment, we're seeing considerable progress in MM capturing the spirit of college basketball. The ebb and flow of emotion, intensity and composure is something rarely seen in the NBA outside of the playoffs. In college hoops it's what motivates 6,000 students to go out on a snowy night and gather in smelly little gyms where they played volleyball earlier that day to watch a team with a 5-12 record go to battle like they're playing for a championship.
To capture this, March Madness introduces the Lockdown Stick and Senior Leadership for the 06 edition. The Lockdown Stick lets you tighten up on your defense and play a ballhandler so close you can smell the flavor of his chewing gum, as Gene Hackman said in Hoosiers. Being able to D-up on the other team's point guard let's you slow the game down, force the action to one side of the court or the other and, when guarding a player without the ball, pressure them into starting their offense further from the basket. These are all little things coaches are trying to teach their players in preseason practices right now.
In MM06 you simply move your player close to the ballhandler and pull down on the right analog stick. You'll get an icon under your feet to indicate you're locking him down but really it's sold by the animation that shows your guy bodying up on his man. It becomes a game within a game as the ballhandler tries to get around you by zigzagging his way up the court and you have to keep your man close to him while maintaining the lockdown on the right analog stick. Going for the steal feels good on the shoulder button/triggers as does executing a full or half court trap with one of your teammates. The Lockdown Stick and all of the associated functions that come with it work very well and it's a college basketball-specific innovation that shouldn't be overlooked.
There are varying levels of talent in college hoops and so what the players lack in ability they often make up for with heart and determination. This is how you get so many corn-fed Big XII behemoths on All-American lists but so few in the NBA. Big Country Reeves anybody? But player who somehow turn it on in the middle of a game and show ability where before there was none is what college ball and the new Senior Leadership feature is all about. Each team has a senior-most member who can fire up his teammates and inspire them to play above themselves in key moments. It's kind of a combination impact player and team chemistry feature that can turn the tide of a close game. John Wallace carrying Syracuse to the finals in '96 or Tyus Edney taking UCLA's title hopes coast to coast the year before are the inspiration for this system and it works well. Your senior leader doesn't have to be a senior necessarily but he's the one who will be blocking shots (which feels better in this game than it does in NBA Live 06), getting steals, hitting runners, three-pointers and hook-shots like he's in the zone once you've got him heated up. His passes will be more accurate now that his teammates will be cutting to the basket with a sense of urgency. The system could've easily degenerated into cheesiness but he's not entirely unstoppable and the effects don't last forever. The senior leader's ability will be more reliable than going to an impact player in NCAA Football, put it that way.

text: I know this has come up before long ago, but has anybody ever discovered a workaround or fix for the bug where ut2004 takes forever to exit after you quit? I seem to remember it having something to do with openal, but I don't remember ever hearing of a solution for it. I looked through the list archives but didn't see anything particularly enlightening. It was never a big deal before, but now I'm trying to run it on a mythtv box, and the fact that it doesn't quit properly means it's pretty much unplayable from the games menu.

Hard Times in Illinois, 1930–1940
A Selection of Documents from the Illinois State Archives
January 13, 1930
When the Chicago City Council met in early January of 1930 to consider a new budget most aldermen were anxious to trim expenses. Austerity was judged prudent not because of the onset of the Great Depression but due to local conditions.
The 1927 property tax assessment had been challenged in the courts and in the meantime collections had been suspended. The city had floated tax anticipation warrants to tide it over. Bankers were warning that unless the budget was balanced, those warrants would have no takers.
Mayor William Hale Thompson and a minority of alderman opposed major cuts. A heated meeting of the full council was held on Friday, January 10, with the galleries packed with city employees targeted for layoffs. Agreement was made to eliminate automobile allowances for all fifty aldermen as well as those for fifty-one police captains. Most city departments were required to reduce spending significantly. Eventually "Big Bill" Thompson and his allies were forced to accept most of the cutbacks.
Public bathhouses provided laundry as well as bathing facilities. In reply to this communication Governor Emmerson wrote "Much as I would like to help you and others in this matter, I regret that it is impossible for me to do so because there is nothing that I can do in connection with these matters."
Points to Consider
What were the authors of this letter asking the governor to do?
How would free public bathhouses have helped the poor?
What was a "shell shocked" son from the World War?
Why were these women being let go?

Our subversive ways of life and thought have become intractable to those who keep us confined to these contemptible cages: our captors.
In this clandestine world of stone walls and steel doors, where an undesirable type of thickness languishes in the arid atmosphere, we prisoners have ingenuously created our own subcultural ways to live from day to day, even under the most extreme conditions, where in one form or another, many miscellaneous acts of inhumanity and degradation are constantly being imposed upon us.
Our captors see the strength and the passion that unceasingly remains, the flicker of life veiled behind our angered eyes that blink with an edge of vengeance and asperity. Our captors are not only awed by this magnificent strength and resiliency; paradoxically they also despise it, because it stands as a constant reminder of their own inferiority; knowing that they themselves could never have the stamina to endure half of the things we've been forced to endure. And the more they're reminded, the more brutal and condescending they become, as they try and try to break us.
Evidently, what is not understood is often feared, and in this case, their fear leads to suppression. Naively and erroneously, they believe that their suppression is going to lead to our submission, yet contrarily, the more they suppress, the more fiercely we cling to our warriors way of life… The more recalcitrant we become.

I care for a 20 month old. He has just learned to hit. He hits with toys and especially his cereal bowl and cup. He doesn't seem to do it out of frustration. He laughs and thinks it is funny. I know that a hand swat just reinforces hitting. I have done the holding of the hands and looking him in the eyes and saying sternly "no hitting". We have done the time outs. I am not sure he really understands what hitting is. I cannot have him hitting other children. His mom says he is now hitting her at home as well. We are both out of ideas.
