So, we actually reached escape velocity this weekend and left for Brattleboro, Vermont after dark on Friday night. It was snowing like mad to the south of us, but none of this weather was bold enough to touch us. I was grateful that something worked out for us, after the notoriously hideous luck that trailed me like a violent poltergeist all through last year.
We took my 2009 Corolla, armed with a variety of strategies to keep it from accelerating out of control should it decide to go rogue on us. With Eleasa's confidence behind the wheel, it was a relatively quick 3-hour trip peppered liberally with loud gangsta rap and coffee and a small container of canteloupe. A strange little building in Massachusetts served as a rest stop along the way, with cold, empty parking lots winding around it, and a plethora of vending machines offering up ice cream and coffees (which were apparently far below substandard, but serviceable enough to keep our driver awake until we traversed the final leg of the trip). My eyes will not allow me to drive at night, and my stomach will not allow me to drink coffee with any regularity, so I feel like I'm missing out on some vital aspects of feeling alive. I used to dream of being a trucker, before I could drive, and these dreams have since become impossible for these two reasons.
Our hosts, Eleasa's grandparents, live in a converted 1800s schoolhouse, with many of the wooden beams and structures still in place. Categories of books lined just about every wall in dark shelves. An entire wall of travel books greeted us at the entrance, followed by a low wall of cookbooks in the kitchen, and many books about boats and medical topics. Her grandmother, 'Nona', has spent a life freelance writing about food and travel, and has the evidence all around the amazingly adorned little house. This is a woman who is good friends with Lois Lowry and has hung out with the Carters. A small clock with visible gears chimed dull, atmospheric, ever so slightly uneven chimes every half hour. Spidery plants cast shadows from the front windows during daylight hours, and the stairs creaked wonderfully.
Her grandfather Herb, not biological, but through a third marriage, is a man in his late 80-somethings who still runs in 5k races and owns a 100-acre maple syrup farm in a portion of Vermont which is slightly more upstate. They are both amazing people, patient and happy, and they give me an entirely new perspective on aging, and finding joy and contentment.
Brattleboro is an old mill town, is featured prominently in an HP Lovecraft story, and houses the old Estey Organ factory. After an evening of drinking from a vast cabinet of interesting alcohols (which I abstained from), and sleeping until daylight was in full force the next day, we all headed out for a tour of the impossibly windy roads that comprise the town. The town is mixed with older structures, ski jumps and many bookstores – one with an Edward Gorey theme proudly displayed in their front window. Eleasa called me excitedly from across the street and told me that I had to come and see it right away, full of small skeletons and copies of Alan Moore's Swamp Thing signed by Steve Bissette. I bought a Paul Hornschemeier hardcover called 'Mother Come Home', and we stocked up on huge armloads of Indian food which I could not pronounce from a cash-only convenience store – some of which we used to tide us over until dinner, and the rest put into a box for Eleasa's later enjoyment. I also bought the obligatory 'maple' product that everyone is compelled to return home from Vermont with – the object of choice being a small jar of maple mustard which I'll need to work up the fortitude to try, though I assume it's something akin to honey mustard. I also purchased a small shotglass for Shakti, who aspires to collect a shotglass from every state. This accompanies the one which I purchased from my stopover in Georgia on my way to Chicago this past summer.
We spent the evening at a small Yucatan restaurant, which was simple and delicious. Nona had actually spent a fair amount of time in Yucatan, and was pleased with the authenticity of the food.
When we got back, I was asked if I liked The New Yorker. Being a New Yorker, and something of an amateur intellectual, it's one of my favorite magazines. I was despondent when our library cut off their subscription two years ago because they did not circulate amongst the general bottomfeeding redneckery of my town, despite the fact that I read it every day over lunch. I was given two years worth of New Yorkers which were headed towards the recycling – a good portion of the ones I had missed, and I read them excitedly under lamplight until midnight passed. I learned all about a neurological disorder which causes people to eat their own hands and pull apart their faces, and sabotage as much of their lives as possible (which I now want to paint, somehow), and understood a whole lot about some of the superficial, asinine awards given out in the art world. Having just submitted artwork to the 2010 Eustace Tilley contest, it felt like things had come in sync, somehow.
I enjoyed a tour of all of the artwork in the house, much of it by friends and family. I'm usually not a fan of 'wall' artwork, but this was a house filled with intelligently chosen, wonderful artworks from all genres – abstracts, illustrative prints, charcoal drawings. All of it said something, and expressed a deep personality. Maybe I was just especially receptive due to the warmth of the house, but I enjoyed it all tremendously. I came away inspired by the colors.
Eleasa expertly made us an elaborate breakfast on Sunday, and after much more reading of The New Yorker, I loaded them into the car, as well as out small amount of luggage, and new boxes of food, and shook hands and hugged goodbye. I was welcomed back anytime. In fact, they seemed to want me to come visit sooner rather than later. I'm so unaccustomed to welcoming grandparents, as I've spent a life with a couple who have palpitations should company even be suggested, and the delicate facade of normalcy and pristine cleanliness doesn't have enough time to be woven.
It was a beautifully simple weekend, reading in the sunlight, being obligated to nothing, meeting incredible people and enjoying the company of a wonderful human tornado of a girl.
I am back home again, with a renewed sense that it is never too late, accompanied by sense of wanting everything to happen right away. I've waited long enough.

It was a mixed night for the Irish fighters in action at the Resorts World Casino in Jamaica, Queens, last Saturday night. Featherweight Allan Phelan lost a close unanimous decision to Micah Branch early on the undercard before Irish American Joe Smith Jr. stopped Yasin Rachid in the third round of their fight.
Phelan, a native of Kildare, was involved in a very competitive fight with Branch, who was extremely motivated and possessed a level of skill that belied his 0-2 record. The pair was evenly matched, with Phelan scoring solidly with his left hook, while Branch's overhand right was his best weapon.
In the third round, Branch hit Phelan below the belt and seemed to wind the Irishman slightly. Referee Benjy Esteves Jr. offered Phelan the chance of a timeout to recuperate, but he declined and fought on, and the two slugged it out for the rest of the stanza.
In the final round Branch got the better of Phelan with some hard right hands and three unanswered left hooks that had the Irishman holding on to his opponent. That said, at the final bell, the fight was very close to call.
The three judges all scored it 39-37 in favor of Branch, who went to (1-2) with the victory. Phelan drops to (0-2) after this setback.
"Back to the drawing board. It is very disappointing. I felt he did enough to win, and I don't know what to say. I thought he won three rounds there. I thought he lost the last round. I am very disappointed and I am sure Allan is the same," said Old World Boxing promoter Jim Foley after the fight.
Though Foley admitted Phelan could have been a bit busier during the later stages of the fight, he still felt that he had the fight under control.
"I thought he was fighting a smart fight and winning the rounds. That was the game plan going in," said Foley.
The Irish Voice caught up with Branch after the fight to get his take on the evening.
"He was tough and I was expecting him to come out tough, but at the same time I knew that he was out for two years and I used that to my advantage to keep the pressure on him," said the man from Cincinnati.
Light heavyweight Smith, meanwhile, took the decision out of the judges' hands when he TKO'd Rachid in the third round. The 23-year-old had his opponent on the floor four times over the course of the fight and moved to 11-1 (11 KOs) with this win.
In other news, London 2012 Olympic bronze medalist Michael Conlan has been drafted by Team USA in the World Series of Boxing amateur tournament. Should the Belfast fighter decide to accept the offer from the American team his first fight will be in mid-November.
Finally, light welterweight Danny O'Connor (18-1, 6 KOs) will fight Josh Sosa (10-3, 5KOs) this Saturday night on the non-televised undercard of the HBO Boxing After Dark card at the Foxwoods Casino in Connecticut.

CentOS is great and by far my preferred distro, however it's package support is terrible. Whilst it's ties to RHEL make it solid and usable the lack of repos really does cause a load of headaches.
Today came Ruby and trying to update the extremely out of date version that the Centos repos include.
$ sudo yum groupinstall 'Development Tools' $ sudo yum install readline-devel $ cd /usr/local/src $ wget ftp://ftp.ruby-lang.org/pub/ruby/1.9/ruby-1.9.1-p376.tar.gz $ tar xzvf ruby-1.9.1-p376.tar.gz $ cd ruby-1.9.1-p376 $ ./configure && make $ sudo make install
Everything you need is in the development tools, except for readline-devel.

Bible Question:
What does it mean to "take up your cross and follow Me"?
Bible Answer:
"Take up your cross and follow Me!" These are Jesus' words from Mark 8:34. Peter has objected to the idea that Jesus will die, Jesus has just rebuked him for objecting and then He paints a picture of a man or woman who wants to be with Him.
And He summoned the multitude with His disciples, and said to them, "If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. (NASB) Mark 8:34
When Jesus says, "come after", He means "to come to a point of being with" Him. Have you ever wished you could have been with Jesus, to have walked with Him, and to have spoken with Him? If you are a Christian, do you want a greater relationship? Jesus tells us how here with black and white colors.
Say No!
The starting point is to "deny" ourselves. You want more of a spiritual relationship with Jesus? It starts just denying yourself. It starts by saying "NO" to yourself. The word Jesus uses for 'deny" actually means "to say no." This verse does not mean to deny ourselves something we want to eat, wear, or view. It means to say no to yourself! This is a complete denial of self in favor of Jesus. Peter had objected to Jesus dying. Jesus told Peter and His disciples simply that they must be willing to die to themselves in every way – including death. The early Christians did die to themselves – by torture, fire, and in the Roman Coliseum. Are you willing to suffer humiliation for witnessing for Jesus? Are you willing to deny yourself sexual pleasure, gossiping, pursuit of wealth for Jesus?
Take Your Cross
We are to take up our cross and try to leave it there. Jesus did not say to take His cross. We are to take up our crosses – our struggles. The cross symbolized pain and suffering. What a contrast! We are to say "NO" to ourselves and to be willing to suffer – He did! How are we doing with denying ourselves the pleasures of this world? Are you willing to suffer insult for Jesus? How regular is your attendance at church? Or, are there more enjoyable things to do? Are you willing to suffer? Even to die?
And Follow
Following is not a separate activity. We are not following Jesus if we are not saying no to ourselves and being willing to suffer with Him. Jesus says it is not possible to really follow Him if you are not denying yourself.
That is how we come to Jesus. We must come denying ourselves and leaning on Jesus and not ourselves. We are not Christians if we did not give up on ourselves and give ourself to Him. That is how we started and that is the pattern Jesus says we must follow if we really want to be with Him.

Posted Wednesday, November 29, 2017 by RODNEY email@example.com on his AJC Radio & TV Talk blog
While sexual misconduct crosses party lines, reaction to news of Matt Lauer's firing over "inappropriate sexual behavior" became political almost from the moment the news came out this morning, starting from the top.
At 7:16 a.m., Donald Trump tweeted with: "Wow, Matt Lauer was just fired from NBC for "inappropriate sexual behavior in the workplace." But when will the top executives at NBC & Comcast be fired for putting out so much Fake News. Check out Andy Lack's past!"
Lack is NBC News chairman and Comcast owns NBC.
Ana Navarro, a contributor for CNN, ABC and Telemundo, wrote on Twitter that Trump is still president despite multiple sexual allegations against him while plenty of others have lost their jobs:

Variety reporter Elizabeth Wagmeister wrote on Twitter that she and Ramin Setoodeh have been working on a story about "far ranging accusations" against Lauer from multiple women for months. "The power of journalism has never been more evident with this cultural change," she wrote, acknowledging how quickly men in multiple industries have lost their jobs soon after such accusations became public, starting with former movie mogul Harvey Weinstein last month.
And Keith Whitney, formerly a reporter at NBC affiliate 11Alive WXIA-TV, posted on Twitter that rumors about Lauer have been floating around for a decade.
And while tabloids don't always get it right, InTouch Weekly wrote about Lauer's possible firing on its cover a few weeks ago:
At 9 a.m., Lauer's former colleague Megyn Kelly said this: "Matt has been kind and supportive to me in my transition to NBC News. I see the anguish on my colleagues' faces. But what we don't see, is the pain on the faces of those who had the courage to come forward."

My name is Hanife, I am 30 years old and I come from Bulgaria. I live with my husband and daughter in a small room for which we have no residency papers and no job. Our girl is 3 years old. My husband drinks, and he beats me, and threatens to throw me in the street. I cannot leave him, he is all I have. In the group sessions with Doctors of the World I can, for the first time, talk about my problems without being scared to be judged. I feel stronger now, and I saw a doctor who took care of me.
360 women received information & health education sessions in their communities; our teams of volunteers organized 20 sessions in the community in 2014. We chose to go to places where women meet like churches, other organizations, social restaurants,… 589 women were seen in a 'women's doctor's consultation; 463 women by a trained General Practitioner and 126 by a gynecologist.
Estimated girls & women affected
90 men received information and health education sessions in their communities; our teams of volunteers organized 20 sessions in the community during 2014.
Estimated community members affected
Over the past year, our teams of volunteers organized 20 informative and health sessions in the community. Each session hosted on average 18 women and 4 to 5 men. The sessions gave information on women's health (contraception, women's health, pregnancy, STI, sexual and gender based violence, hygiene,…), where to go to receive healthcare and what steps to undertake to get access to healthcare. We used visuals to support the sessions and ensure a good understanding of the information given, and to encourage participation of all women, regardless the level of literacy. Some women were assigned 'godmothers', or peer mothers, who will accompany others to health or social services. We also ran consultations with GP's and gynecologists. These consultations were organized in our health center in Brussels. They were mainly about contraception, post violence care, STI screening and treatment, cervical cancer screening and breast cancer screening. 10 volunteers and 4 workers were also trained on 'guiding women' and 'guiding focus groups' These are the women going in the communities to organize the health literacy sessions. They can manage (sometimes strong) emotions that can come up during the group discussions. Finally all this work has fed our advocacy work and helped us to speak out on the difficulties of women in accessing to health services. For example, we co-organized inter-professional forums.

In the group sessions with Doctors of the World I can, for the first time, talk about my problems without being scared to be judged. I feel stronger now, and I saw a doctor who took care of me.
Risks and challenges
Our organization made the operational choice to provide services with and trough volunteers. This is very rewarding, since our volunteers bring their own experience, competences and enthusiasm. The challenge here is the huge workload for each and every volunteer to accompany and train the women, whilst they may not have spent a long time within our organization as volunteers and therefore tend to have a high turnover. The second challenge is that we feel we still do not reach enough women; this is why we started to train the staff of another organization on health literacy and key messages.
What we've learned
We work to ensure the most marginalized populations have access to healthcare. In Belgium, women are especially vulnerable to exclusion from healthcare systems. Regardless of their socio-economic status (homeless, undocumented immigrants, survivors of domestic violence, sex workers, uninsured, etc.), women of various backgrounds experience enormous barriers gaining access to healthcare. The barrier are mainly a lack of coverage and they cannot pay for the medicines, contraceptives; but also a lack of knowledge and anxiety about the health system. We've learned that with very little things we can have a major change in their lives.
Next steps
We've started to organize peer to peer health education and support, and seeing the positive impact we want to continue with reinforcing this strategy. More peer support for women in precarious living conditions. Also will we continue to work on developing better tools to support the women's sessions. We are also working on strategies to increase access to gynecologist consultations for all women, at least once, to benefit from cervical cancer and breast cancer screening. Finally we want to continue our advocacy work towards the authorities and support the fight for an universal access to preventive and curative healthcare for all.
We have used our budget in full, thank you very much again for your essential and truly appreciated support to our work.

November 14, 2014
This project has two main objectives:
- Health promotion sessions within the women's communities
- Health consultations for women within our medical centre
To date, sixteen health promotion sessions have been organized for 98 women. These sessions tackled subjects such as hygiene, HIV, and access to health in Belgium. The idea behind the sessions is to reach women in precarious situations. To reach those most in need, we organized our health promotions at day shelters for the homeless, community houses for migrants, and at waiting rooms for sex workers. If we find that there is a medical need, we refer the women to our medical consultation centre. As a result we have seen 446 women for 1,079 medical consultations and 96 psychological consultations.
Risks and challenges
All the sessions are run by volunteers. For the moment the challenge is to find motivated and dedicated volunteers to be part of the project. We face a big turnover of staff, and the training and coordination of volunteers is a long process. Another challenge is to find and include women who are in need of our assistance. The process to tackle this issue and to find the most excluded populations is a long and harsh process.
Get personal
"To get out, I accepted several odd jobs and sometimes I worked up to 15 hours per day. I started losing my strength ... I had serious health problems and I had to gradually stop working. I met someone here who helped me to create an administrative and medical file. This person helped me to find the help to which I was entitled. I had no more energy. " - A young woman we met during a health promotion session at a homeless shelter
Next steps
The next steps include two aspects: - Increasing our health promotion sessions by going to new locations and trying to train community women to become trainers in order to increase the snowball effect of those session. - Increasing medical consultations for women, and refer more women to our services. In that purpose, we have created a network we called "Women in Precarity," which gathers all of the baseline services in one place.

More information
For the moment our medical centre is completely saturated and we have to turn people away everyday due to a lack of capacity. Thanks to the funding our capacity has increased and we have been accepting more women for which has permitted us to create a safe enthronement for many others.
We don't wait for women to come to us. We bring care to them.
Why we care: An undocumented immigrant, an uninsured mother, a survivor of domestic violence - marginalized women experience enormous barriers to healthcare, even in Belgium.
How we're solving this: The "Together with Her" project organizes mobile medical and paramedical units to bring preventive and pre- and post-natal care to women and mothers in need. Your support will strengthen our three-prong program - health consultations, a "buddy network," and conversation groups.
Ilya who is 20 years old tells her story, "Yesterday, we spoke about pregnancy and contraception, it was the first time that I spoke about that… and I had never received such information."
We bring information and care directly to women like Ilya through our mobile services. First, we offer consultations on women's health issues, like contraception, pre- and post-natal care, rehabilitation for survivors of sexual violence, and preventive care for gynecological cancer. Second, our "buddy network" connects in-need communities with local doctor offices and healthcare clinics. Finally, we organize ongoing conversation groups focused on health and prevention. These groups meet at places close to the women we help- churches, hair salons and schools. Conversation groups help educate women on sexual and reproductive health as well as how to navigate the structure of the Belgian health system.
Since starting the "Together with Her" project in January 2013, we've treated 98 patients through women's health consultations, connected 192 buddy networks, and hosted 23 conversation groups with a total of 150 participants.

I've been doing galeon 1.1.* packages for some time now and got some good feedback from IRC ;) There was some article in LWN.net (right now at the front page/editorial) http://lwn.net/ about Debian where it was stated: "The joy of an unstable life." [...] "If you want the bleeding edge, you'll probably find it there" [...] "The unstable distribution is not for everybody, of course. [...] short time window when the PAM packages were broken; the result was a system that nobody could log into." A quite pro-Debian article stating that altugh Debian potato is quite "stale", Debian is one of the most up-to-date distributions. Really nice. - The article actually recommends running Debian for people wanting to take part in Free Software Development, because it's so easy to keep up with current development versions. Now see the following part: "It is fun to be a part of the free software development process, and Debian unstable offers a relatively easy entry point into that process. If you want to see the latest feature in Galeon, " [...] Right now, you can't see the latest features of galeon in Debian. For example mouse gestures - a nice feature in the development version of galeon for quite some time - are not available in galeon 1.0.3 As i'm having the galeon 1.1.3 packages ready anyway and use them everyday - why not fulfill that claim of lwn.net? ;) Maybe i'll upgrade them to some current cvs snapshot, too. The Galeon Team probably will release 1.1.4 anytime soon; and maybe even 1.2.0 too - which would be a candidate for galeon "-stable" then. Greetings, Erich

The date on which the Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili was founded - 24th June 1910 - is referred to by the number of pens produced in this limited edition series.Montegrappa has crafted a total of 1910 items: 246 (24-6 i.e. June) celluloid and carbon fibre fountain ballpoint and roller ball pens; 246 celluloid and silver fountain ballpoint and roller ball pens plus 167 of each of the respective mechanical pencils and 25 of each of the four series in celluloid and solid 18K gold.The exquisite artistic designs etched in low-relief on the body of the silver and gold versions in the Montegrappa collection are inspired by the stylistic elements on the evocative Alfa Romeo logo (the Visconti snake badge and vintage logo). The brand also appears in relief on the top of the cap while the classic Alfa four-leaf clover is etched on the 18K two-tone gold nib of the fountain pen which is partially rhodium-plated. The nib feeder is made from ebonite proving that even the parts hidden from the eye are selected and crafted with the utmost attention to detail.New in its original boxI will ship worldwide.

Students from Middlesex University have created and performed their own adaptation of Steven Berkoff's The Trial in a special performance.
Students designed the sets, costumes, sounds, lighting, and after months of rehearsals put on a show in the new Ravensfield Theatre on the Hendon campus.
The play, directed and performed by second year BA Theatre Arts students, follows the story of Joseph K who is unexpectedly arrested and has to fight for his innocence. It is performed in four sections, each by a different group of students.
Some 52 students from two modules, one acting and one design module, collaborated to put together the production, which was shown over two days. The acting included nine students appearing as leading role Joseph K.
The set was designed and made by the students, set manager Cara Forsdick (21) from Nottingham said: "We wanted to make the set interactive and it had to be something that worked for all four parts of the production. It's an industrial theme using harsh tones and plenty of metal – we have created an industrial style courtroom."
Tom Hendry (21) from Braintree, who is head of sound for the production, said: "It's been a real learning curve, I came to university to learn how to be a director and to try new things, and I'd never worked on sounds and music before but really enjoyed putting it all together. It's been intense but has really prepared us for life outside university. It's a really professional operation here, everyone has been fantastic."
Module leader Nicola Stammers said: "They've done a really great job and have worked incredibly hard. It has been a challenge but they've produced a very strong performance, set design and costumes."

text: I am so excited that I will be attending my first fetish convention ever! I'll be going to FetishCon in Tampa, August 2012. Anyway, I'm still very new to BDSM so I want to know/get some advise/book reading suggestions to get me ready. Mostly I want to know basic protocol for how to act and address people. Obviously I shouldn't speak or act in a scene I'm observing unless asked from within the scene to participate. I have looked at the discussions concerning books to read for those new to BDSM (already added several to my reading to do list). Any suggestions would be helpful!

The Gettysburg quilt block pattern will give you lots of practice using half square triangles in different ways, rather than the most common patch made by using two contrasting right angled triangles to make a square.
*Note: More famous places (and not so famous) quilt block links are at the bottom of this post.
This nine patch quilt block makes wonderful use of the square in a square patch, in two different colourways. The careful placement of the triangles in the square in a square patch results in a star formed in the centre of the block.
The two sample quilts illustrated are very different looking — but both are generated using the same quilt block. Your imagination in action will come up with all sorts of interesting designs of your own.

We knew that Minted customers were design savvy, but Lynda B. has set the bar for planning a whimsical children's birthday party inspired by a Minted invitation. Lynda came across the Elephant Balloon Children's Birthday Party Invitation by Sweet Street Gals, and decided to extend the theme throughout her son, Jack's, first birthday party.

The Storm Warriors (2009) - Swords Scene
Contribution: All particle animation
(1) Done with Maya particle instancer. All animation is expression driven. Custom UI have been built to allow fast feedback when fine tuning the particle motion.
(2) Beside random vibration, rotation, floating and twisting animation of the instances, expression is used to switch the geometry to visually fake the effect of sword being broken up. After breaking up, the swords will select and flow along a nearest curve from a group of user defined curves.
(3) Since there is a whole series of similar shot in the movie, I built a script such that other artist can set up their scene with custom UI and start to animate the seconds in seconds.
The Storm Warriors (2009) - Daemon Scene
Contribution: All particle animation and shading
(1) My goal is to create particles trail effects while maintaining their reaction to all Maya field so that a fluidic particle trail motion is possible.
(2) Particles will identify their parent once they are born and will follow his parent for the rest of their life.
(3) Custom 3Delight shader has been created to add stylistic particle shading.
(4) Custom tools have been built to allow a one click setup of the whole particle system for other artists.
The Storm Warriors (2009) - Swords Scene II
Contribution: All particle animation
My goal is to animate the swords geometry (particle instances) to react to deformation of a animated geometry once they hit and stopped by it. The particles constantly updating the normal information at their collision point and adjust their orientation accordingly.
The Storm Warriors (2009) - Destruction Scene I
Contribution: All particle and rigid body simulation, volumetric rendering, custom animation exporting tools for Houdini/Maya pipeline
The last scene of "The Storm Warriors" is a full CG shot depicting the collapse of a mountain. I did all the rigid body simulation and volumetric effect rendering. Simulation is done in Houdini. Volumetric effect is done in 3dsmax with FumeFX and Afterburn. Particle debris are added in Maya.
We had problem exporting the simulated geometry form Houdini to Maya since of the high poly count. I built a custom python script to export only animation data from Houdini without exporting the geometry itself, which make the export much much faster.
The Storm Warriors (2009) - Destruction Scene II
Contribution: Rigid body simulation
My goal is to simulate the destruction of one of the main character. Rigid body and particle debris simulation is done in Houdini.
The Storm Warriors (2009) - Tornado Scene
Contribution: All particle (instances and sprite) animation, shading and rendering
In this scene, hundreds of brick geometry raised from the ground and turn into a tornado. Done with maya instances. Dusts are particle sprite rendered with 3Delight.
Canon (2010) - Frog Scene
Contribution: All animation, textures, shading, lighting and rendering
This is a commercial for a digital camera product from Canon. All done in maya. I use Mental Ray for the final renderer.
L2 (2010) - Mercury Scene
Contribution: Realflow particle scripting, simulation, rendering and compositing
This is a commercial for a fashion brand. Realflow is used to simulate the particles. The particles are fully controlled by script such that they will procedurally search for nearest point of a geometry and upward to create a crawling effect

Emergency cover will be provided throughout a further strike by the Fire Brigades Union today (Saturday 14th December) between 6pm and 10pm. While we will not have as many crews on duty as a normal day, we will respond to emergencies, prioritising those where lives are at risk. If you do have a fire, get out, stay out and dial 999.
Please take extra care during this evening, particularly if you are driving, cooking at home or putting up the decorations. And if you enjoy a night on the town, don't be tempted to cook when you get back home.
It's also a good to check that your home is as safe as it can possibly be.
Safety advice for the home
- Fit smoke alarms on each floor in your home, keep them dust-free, and test them once a week. Consider buying a ten-year alarm; otherwise change the batteries every year.
- Take special care when you are tired or when you've been drinking. Most domestic fires happen between 10pm and 8am.
- Make an escape plan so that everyone in your home knows how to escape in the event of a fire.
- Keep the exits from your home clear of obstructions so that people can make their escape if there is a fire. Make sure that occupants can find keys for doors and windows easily.
- Take care in the kitchen - accidents while cooking account for 59% of fires in the home. Never leave young children unsupervised in the kitchen.
- Take extra care when cooking with hot oil; if you don't use one already, consider buying an electric thermostatically controlled deep fat fryer.
- Never leave lit candles unattended and ensure that they are in a secure holder on a heat-resistant surface away from flammable materials.
- Don't overload electrical sockets. Remember one socket - one plug.
- Keep matches and lighters out of reach of children.
- Don't leave the TV or other electrical appliances on standby as this could cause a fire. Always switch it off and unplug it when not in use.
- Ensure cigarettes are stubbed out and disposed of carefully and never smoke in bed.

Annie Reviews:
Body Shop Shea Body Butter
Price: From £6 for 50ml to £28 for 400ml
Feel: Rich and luxurious. It glides on and gives your skin the glow of excellent moisturisation. Yet not greasy and you do not get that surface layer which rubs off like dead skin. Skin felt smooth for 24 hours until the next shower. Annie is now using this for post-swimming moisturising to fend off the dried prune look. It works!
Scent: Rich but not at all cloying. A slight vanilla smell makes it fresh. (Vanilla is meant to raise men's ardour. Slap it on girls!)
Packaging: We cannot say the packaging is overtly Sassy or something to adorn your dressing table. But it is eco-friendly and you can take it back to the shop for recycling.
Results: Oooooooh yes! Slather this on and feel that skin drink up the goodness. A few applications and you wonder if 50 is the new 20! Best applied after a good scrub down and exfoliation.
Value: This lasts for ages unless you get slap-it-on-silly. Good value.
Rating: 9/10 (would be 10 with a prettier package)

Whether or not you love getting dressed up, going dress shopping can be a trying experience. It seems as though every brand is sized and fitted differently, making each trip to the dressing room a guessing game. However, with the following guide to finding the perfect plus size dresses for you and your style, you can simplify the shopping process and find the perfect dress with less effort. The real key to finding something you love is knowing your body and your comfort zone, as well as trusting your instincts.
Finding The Right Style
If you look through magazines, you will notice that some of the best dressed people in the world wear similar silhouettes over and over again. Knowing what looks good on you and, more importantly, what makes you feel great, will help you to quickly walk into a store and identify the items that will work. No one will know their ideal silhouette until they try a few different options, so your first trip might take awhile. Choose a few different styles that represent classic silhouettes, including strapless, sheathes, knee length and tea length plus size cocktail dresses. Try each of these on and be critical about the way they fit and how you feel when you move in them.
   Once you have found a basic style that works for you, stick to it. You can switch it up by changing the color, the embellishment and the accessories, while remaining true to the general dressing concept. You will find that this piece quickly becomes your statement dress, and that you look great and appropriate on every occasion.

Getting The Perfect Fit
Though most shoppers have heard it over and over again, it is worth repeating: always try a dress on before you buy it. Plus size dresses will be sized differently depending on the brand, the cut and the style, so you must make sure that they fit before you purchase. Along the same lines, do not be afraid to spend a little extra to get a dress tailored to fit your body. This can often be done for just a few dollars and can make even a cheap dress look like a designer find.
While shopping for the perfect dress can be exhausting at times, finding one that fits well and flatters you will be a huge load off your shoulders. Investing in a classic dress that will take you to weddings, conferences and cocktail parties will save you time and energy, and ensure that you start looking forward to invitations to fancy occasions.

Pretty little monograms, maids all in blush, timeless stationery, a cake worthy of its pedestal, sparkly Loubies - each and every turn of this gorgeous affair captured by Melissa Schollaert Photography is what dreams are made of. Big, beautiful, blush-filled ballroom dreams. And those are the best kind. Filled with gorgeous textures and layer after layer of elegant white touches, it's the definition of pretty. It was all brought to life by the lovely Lindsey at Toast Events, and now we get to devour all of the goodness image by beautiful image. Ready for ALL of the prettiness? Then float on over to the full gallery for even more lovely!
Click here for the FULL ewedding!
From the photographer...Kim & Brian's wedding was an elegant affair held at the historic Biltmore Ballrooms in Atlanta, Georgia. Their beautiful church ceremony was followed by a trolley ride with the bridal party to the reception. Their guests were greeted with a cocktail hour in the lobby with lounge areas, drinks and appetizers. Before being ushered into the historic ballroom, guests passed the escort card table full of "match"-sticks with flags displaying their table numbers. A sweet sign read, "We found our match, now you find yours!". The table also displayed an initial logo of "KB", engagement photos and a display of floral arrangements and candles. The elegant ballroom with it's carved plasterwork ceiling doesn't need much in the way of extra decor, but Kim & Brian kept it simple and modern. A palette of whites including blush and ivory were the centerpiece of the reception scheme. Beautiful white and ivory arrangements in silver vessels adorned most tables, while the head table held elegant sprays of flowers in tall, clear vases. Candles, candles, candles were everywhere and really added to the ambiance of the room as well as the professional lighting that lit the old columns and intricately carved ceiling. Guests were greeted at each placesetting with a favor of chocolates in a box with a wax seal displaying the logo initials of Kim & Brian. They also received a "thank-you" note along with their menu card from the couple. After dinner, guests partied on the dancefloor and enjoyed a late-night snack before the couple was ushered out by the Florida State fight song to their awaiting Rolls Royce getaway car.

I hate going back into the past and especially in our country's history but this wouldn't be an Irish blog is I didn't mention yesterdays Saville Report, an enquiry that cost €200m into the events of Januaury 30th 1972, Bloody Sunday.
In stark contrast to the Widgery enquiry carried out in the months after 14 innocents were slain on the streets of Derry by members of PARA, yesterdays report completed exonerated all who died and were injured that day of any blame leading to their murders. British prime minister David Cameron yesterday wholeheartedly apologised to the families of those who died on behalf of his government. The findings were greeted on the street of Derry by thousands who had gathered to joy at the vindication that took 38 long years to come. It came to late for some.
The Northern Irish peace process has to be this country's greatest achievement since Independence. Not in any unifying way as some no doubtedly hope someday it will be, but it showed the world what can be done to turn violent society on the path to reconciliation and forward into the future.
No one who cares for life in this day and age wants a return to the troubles that claimed over 3,600 lives in the period that followed the shooting dead of innocent civil rights marchers. They chose to put the gun and bomb to rest and plot a way forward from the blood that stains many a Northern Ireland town. I think in my heart I won't see the island united in my lifetime but then it's never felt so united as in recent times. Justice was served yesterday and although it's often a long and tedious path towards it, it's testament to those who believe in it and continue to seek it in every walk of life.
I like to give people chances in life and I see no reason from the sound of David Cameron's voice yesterday as he spoke in the House of Commons not to give him one. Some media described it as tactical but I think it's time we left tactics aside for a greater good, lame as that may sound to some.
Once we rid ourselves of those who bankrupted us and have generationally sent our young to foreign shores we can begin to restore our pride in who we are and who we are as a people. We can't but succeed because it will be down to the individuals and not failed systems and family dynasty's that has so outstayed thier tenures.
People are all unique, we shouldn't be treated as a collective so we mass for the benefit of those who care not for us. It's my believe that whatever it is that defines us as a nation when time writes it's last history page will be something along those lines. A People who took pride in taking care of themselves and others.
People died both North and South to give us a chance at that very ideal. Our leaders, for the most part, have failed their honour. We don't need another enriching enquiry to tell us that. We need to get on now with making our tomorrow so many didn't have to die in vain.

Phase II Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Trastuzumab in Combination With Xelox as First-line Treatment of Patients With Advanced or Metastatic Gastric Cancer or Gastro-esophageal Junction, (HER2)-Positive.
Gastric cancer worldwide is the second tumor incidence (10%). There are significant
geographical differences in Spain with an incidence of 15 cases/100,000 per year. Although
the incidence and mortality of gastric cancer (GC) have experienced a marked reduction in
the past 40 years, this disease remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality,
accounting for more than 870,000 deaths worldwide in the year 2000.
Gastric cancer has a high mortality rate because usually diagnosed when in advanced stage
and in many cases has a high relapse rate. Advanced gastric cancer cases are considered to
be diagnosed with unresectable disease, either by having locally advanced disease (30% of
cases at diagnosis), or having metastatic disease (another 30%) and patients with relapses
(60% of resected). Thus, overall around 84% of patients with gastric cancer will have
advanced disease.
The only curative treatment so far is surgery. Thanks to early detection and implementation
of appropriate surgical techniques, survival has improved in some countries such as Japan
and Korea, being the rate of 5-year survival of 47%Over the years, a large number of studies
with a single agent chemotherapy has been shown that gastric cancer is a relatively
sensitive to chemotherapy. Based on these observations, the trend was the investigation of
the combination of chemotherapy agents.

Maeve Binchy's Evening Class was the first book I have ever read in English. I was so proud of myself for reading a big book in English and enjoying it, too. This one, however, is a guidebook on writing and it has been one of the most approachable ones for me. It is inspired by a course run by The National College of Ireland. The advice in it comes not only from Maeve Binchy herself but also from other writers, editors and publishers. Here's the list of these experts: Marian Keyes, Alison Walsh, Norah Casey, Paula Campbell, Ivy Bannister, Seamus Hosey, Gerald Dawe, Jim Culleton, Ferdia McAnna and Julie Parsons.
The Maeve Binchy Writers' Club is written with charm, humour and generosity. It warms your heart only Maeve Binchy can do. She basically shows us how authors write and covers topics from finding a subject and creating good writing habits to sustaining progress and seeking a publisher. It doesn't matter if you want to write plays, short stories or mysteries, there is something in it for every one.
At the end of the book, there is an appendix full of suggested further reading, a selection of writing competitions and awards as well as websites and literary journals.
"The most important thing to realize is that everyone is capable of telling a story." –Maeve Binchy

Regional Reviews: San Francisco
Aurora Theatre Production of George Bernard Shaw's The Man of Destiny Boasts an Exceptional Ensemble
Also see Richard's review of The Glory of Living
The Aurora Theatre Company is currently presenting the rarely staged one act lighthearted comedy of egos, The Man of Destiny, by George Bernard Shaw. This is a humorous tête-à-tête between 27 year old general Napoleon Bonaparte and a strange lady one morning in May 1796.
George Bernard Shaw was a fervent advocate of the new theatre of Ibsen. This play, one of his earliest dramas (written in 1898) and subtitled Plays Pleasant and Unpleasant, savagely attacks social hypocrisy. However, it is less fierce than some of his other plays. The comedy drama was presented by the Protean Theatre Company in New York in 1997 with Jeff Gurner playing Napoleon and Penny Balfour as the Strange Lady. There was a television adaptation by the Community Television of Southern California in 1973 for PBS starring Stacy Keach as the General and Samantha Eggar as the Strange Lady. Sir Ian MacKellen played the role in the UK in the early '80s at the Lyric Theatre.
Man of Destiny takes place just two days after the Battle of Lodi between French and Austrian troops where cannonade became an important part of warfare. The French have defeated the Austrian troops and the young General Napoleon (T. Edward Webster), who is liberating Italy for the republican cause, is waiting for his dispatches in a little inn at Tavazzano on the road between Lodi and Milan. The lieutenant (Craig Neibaur) who was suppose to have been carrying them arrives, but they have been stolen from him on the way by a youth.
A mysterious young lady (Stacy Ross) arrived at the Inn just that morning, and the Lieutenant recognizes the lady as the male youth he met on the way. The lady explains she has a twin brother and that it must have been her brother who stole the lieutenant's dispatches and horse. However, a battle of wits takes place between the lady and Napoleon, since he recognizes that she and the "brother" are one and the same. The lady challenges the General's sense of honor and character over the retrieval of a collection of sensitive letters.
Napoleon, fueled by his own bravado and faith in his battle plans, sets out to prove that there is nothing be cannot master by force. However, the lady is more than a match for the General's strategic mind and she sets about systematically turning his organized world upside down. The lady is willing to turn over the documents with the exception of one "love letter" that she does not want the General to see. The letter turns out to be a love letter from Napoleon's wife Josephine to another man.
Since this is a one act play, director Barbara Oliver has wisely incorporated the long solo essay about Napoleon Bonaparte as a prologue spoken by Jeffrey Bihr. The excellent veteran actor comes out dressed in a long black coat, speaking in an English accent to the audience about the historical figure, in order to put the drama into proper context. He tells us that Napoleon was not born of nobility, that he is imaginative without illusions and creative without religion, loyalty, patriotism or any of the common ideals. He says that the General's technical specialty is cannonading the enemy. He says "Napoleon perceived for the first time since the invention of gunpowder that a cannon ball, if it strikes a man, it will kill him." Our narrator then slowly puts on grayish makeup and takes off his black coat to reveal the costume of an Italian innkeeper in the 18th century. Now with an Italian accent, Bihr becomes Giuseppe. This is a brilliant piece of stage acting and it sets the mood of the play.
T. Edward Webster (Lobby Hero and Suddenly Last Summer) seems a little weak as the French general. He still does not have a handle on the witty George Bernard Shaw dialogue and he seems no match for the theatric tics of Stacy Ross. However, his soliloquy toward the end of the production on what is an Englishman is pure Shavian acting.
Craig Neibaur (The Lonesome West and Five Flights) is great fun as the somewhat egotistical clown of a noble gentlemen who is a French lieutenant. As Napoleon threatens to shoot the young man because he does everything wrong, the wise innkeeper suggest that he be made a general. That way, whatever he does will always be right.
Jeffrey Bihr is excellent as the prologue narrator and very good as Giuseppe the innkeeper at Tavazzano. He has a wonderful Shavian wit about him when speaking his lines.
Greg Dunham has designed an interesting set for the three sided stage, which includes the front of the inn at Tavazzano with hanging shuttered windows coming from the ceiling. Costumes by Clare Henkel are authentic Napoleonic uniforms. Direction by Barbara Oliver is brisk and smooth.
The Man of Destiny is a wonderful paean to militarism Shaw style. It contains long speeches which consist mainly of pretentiousness and rhetoric that are wonderful to hear. The production runs through March 7 at the Aurora Theatre, 2081 Addison Street, Berkeley. Tickets can be obtained by calling 510-843-4822 or visit www.auroratheatre.org.

"The Best Bread Ever" or "The Tartine Rustic Country Loaf"
5 comments:
I am so glad to see this, I will have to check into making this... I am trying to make my sourdough starter work... having a hard time with it... will keep at it though :) Thanks for the inspiration!ReplyDelete
This might be totally weird, but I did Summerstaff with Eric a few years ago, and saw a link to your blog that he posted on facebook. And I got so pumped about this post that I had to comment. I just started using the tartine cookbook and it's so awesome!ReplyDelete
Here's a link to my loaf.
Thank you for this detailed account of your experience with Tartine Bread. I used your post as a second reference and to reassure myself along the way. I noticed that you got a very good bulk rise. My own loaf came out a little dense (not too bad, though) and had the consistency and texture of steamed bun, which is not exactly my fav. Any advice? I figure a longer bulk rise might help, but incase you had similar issues, thought I should ask. Thanks for the post!ReplyDelete

I may be writing this long after you are paying attention, but I want to thank you for your very good directions and pictures. I have been making all kinds of bread at home for a long time but am intrigued by the Tartine method. Until now I couldn't find directions that were as clear as yours. This will help!ReplyDelete
Thank you for these detailed instructions! I tried several times and failed, but now followed your blog above, and can make the best bread ever!! Thank you:)ReplyDelete

Guy Pelletier, a retired Montreal lawyer, and his wife, biologist Val Behan, love the Eastern Townships. They built a second home in the hamlet of Tomifobia back in the 1970s, but they often used to drive by a large plot of hilly land that had a spectacular view overlooking the southern end of Lake Memphremagog. They vowed that, if it ever came up for sale, they would buy it, sell their home in Tomifobia and build another house, with the idea of living in the Townships full time.
The property they had their eye on was surrounded by 85 hectares of wooded land spanning both sides of a quiet country road in Ogden Township, close to the American border. On the far shore of the lake was Newport, Vt. and, in the distance, Jay Peak, one of the highest mountains in New England.
"The owner eventually put the land up for sale at $800,000, but we weren't prepared to pay that high a price," Pelletier recalled. "In any case, it was in a green zone, so there was no guarantee we'd get a permit to build."
Over the years, the couple kept tabs on the property, phoning the real estate agent from time to time, in the hope the price might come down. Sure enough, in 1999, the former owner decided to get involved in another project. Now in a hurry to sell, he dropped the price to $230,000, so at that point, Pelletier and Behan went ahead and "bought the view" (as Pelletier puts it).
Having acquired the site they admired for so long, they faced several years of hard work before they could even contemplate constructing a house. The land had once been used as fields for farm animals, but it had long since been reclaimed by nature and was covered in dense scrub. Not only that, locals had been using it as a dumping ground.
"People would arrive with a trailer full of stuff and just turf it, " Pelletier said. "There was so much garbage. We spent months and months clearing away old roofing tiles, beer bottles, you name it. ... We even un-covered the carcasses of three cars!"
By 2004, the land was eventually cleared to the point where Pelletier and Behan, with the help of local contractors, could start building. By then Pelletier was retired, so he had the time to think about how the house would look.
"Everything you see was the result of what was in Guy's head," Behan explained. "He was the architect, the designer, part-time builder and project manager! We had past experience with the house in Tomifobia, but with this one, Guy could really let his imagination roam."
His imagination has created a two-storey house clad in pale caramel maibec siding encompassing 3,500 square feet of living space. The ground floor, which faces south, has a light-infused hallway and an open-plan living/dining area with French doors and floor-to-ceiling windows. The kitchen has custom-made rosewood cabinets, black granite counter tops (sourced locally, but from South America) and ceramic flooring with a beige and brown marbled finish.
Throughout the other rooms, the floors are maple, with radiant heating provided by a wood furnace in the basement. (Pelletier wanted to keep the house as environmentally friendly as possible, so the floors are covered in a water-based preservative rather than polyurethane.) Also in the basement are one of three bathrooms (there's one on each floor of the house), an exercise area, laundry room, spare bedroom and mini-laboratory for Behan's biology experiments.
The upper storey has beamed cathedral ceilings ("I wanted it to look like a loft apartment"), more large windows, a master bedroom and two home offices. The lines of the "loft" are simple and geometric and light pours in from all directions.
Pelletier's eye for elegant design is obvious (as is Behan's sense of colour) and it's hard to believe that no architect had a hand in creating this home with a view.
"I could visualize what the house would become," Pelletier said. "My father was an old-school Quebecer descended from farming stock who used to build everything themselves. As a youngster, I used to watch my uncles when they were working on their own houses. I learned a lot about construction from them and, of course, when Val and I were doing our place in Tomifobia."
Throughout the house, the decor is pale - from the pastel walls to the neutral furnishings. Even the pine cupboards that surround the fireplace in the living room have been given a mellow patina to make the wood look less yellow than its natural colour.
"The patina was applied by Rick Fabio, a local carpenter, and we're really pleased with the end result," Pelletier said. "The reason we had him do this was because I didn't want to emphasize the materials inside the house too much. I wanted the interior to be like an art gallery where everything is neutral and you're focused on the paintings. Here the 'art' is the outside, framed by the windows. The idea is for people to walk into the living room and be immediately captivated by the view."
Pelletier has certainly succeeded in doing that. Behan, for her part, has had a hand in choosing the furnishings, some of which were brought from the house in Tomifobia. Original artwork by known Quebec painters adorn the walls. Other objets d'art (Chinese scrolls, African carvings, a side table embellished with folk art from Rajasthan) were given to the couple by friends or acquired on vacations abroad.
The living room has a large L-shaped leather sofa and a "cocktail corner" with two comfy armchairs where Behan and Pelletier can watch the sun go down. The windows are hung with sheers, to retain the light and, according to Behan, "give a kind of California look."
One of the most interesting pieces of furniture is a round, mahogany table with claw feet that stands in the middle of the hallway. It came from Behan's father's dental surgery room in her native Ireland - when he retired, she asked him if she could have it.
"It's an antique and to my astonishment, when he came to visit us, he had bits of the table in his hand luggage! He'd cut it into pieces - about 14 pieces in all - to make it easy to transport.
"Luckily, I found a restoration specialist in Ottawa who was able to put it all together again. In fact, he was so interested in the table - it dates back to the 18th century - that he offered to buy it. It's not for sale though. To me it has great sentimental value."
