Farenheit Sunglasses: Make your summers comfy
We all are fond of fashion which is now becoming a discrete part of our daily lifestyle. With changing times, fashion industry is also revolutionizing and creating such things which were never thought of earlier. Even sunglasses that are manufactured now have variants in their styles and protection in their lenses from harmful UV rays. Various brands are famous in sunglasses manufacturing and selling and one of which is Farenheit Sunglasses. Designed according to new standards and with advanced technology, these sunglasses are now becoming the part of outfits. What made me realize the importance of sunglasses is an incident from my past which changed my perspective towards sunglasses. It was the time when I was travelling to Mauritius for my holidays, away from the excruciating summers of north India. I wanted to spend my holidays at a place with beaches, beautiful night life and natural environment. So, I packed my bag and reached Mauritius with my friends. Though as per expectation, place was very fine and full of natural beauties but still the sun was glaring right on our heads. All my friends were carrying their sunglasses and I was the one without them. Now, I was feeling some irritation in my eyes as sun was shining brightly and it was very difficult to roam around. Then my friends suggested buying a pair of sunglasses from a nearby shop and they specifically asked for Farenheit sunglasses.
Initially, I thought they will be hot and sizzling like sun and I found them to be as per my expectations. I bought an aviator for me as they were going with my face cut and then I asked about the prices and found them reasonable for this design and built. Specifications of Farenheit sunglasses impressed me as they were made of optimum quality material, designer temples and Polaroid lenses. New range aviators include Polaroid lenses which reflect 97% of UV rays and protect eyes from glaring sun and dust. Scratch resistance was also the one add-on feature which attracted me towards it as I'm a pretty bad handler of stuff which I carry. Now, I was happy to wear those sunglasses as they were protecting my eyes from direct sunlight and I was much comfortable wearing them. I spend my whole day on the beach playing volley ball, taking sun bath and doing stuff and seriously my eyes had no irritation for the whole time. I felt relaxed while walking in the sun and all thanks to Farenheit Sunglasses which made it all possible. I bought one pair for my father too as he also travels frequently hence it will save his eyes from sun and dust while travelling. I thanked all my friends for all their suggestion which changed my perspectives towards sunglasses as a protective wear.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Source: Received to Review (Netgalley)
Genre; Middle Grade Fiction
Book description: Believe in the possible . . . with this brilliantly quirky, thought-provoking novel from New York Times bestseller, three-time Newbery Honor winner Jennifer L. Holm
Galileo. Newton. Salk. Oppenheimer.
Science can change the world . . . but can it go too far?
Eleven-year-old Ellie has never liked change. She misses fifth grade. She misses her old best friend. She even misses her dearly departed goldfish. Then one day a strange boy shows up. He's bossy. He's cranky. And weirdly enough . . . he looks a lot like Ellie's grandfather, a scientist who's always been slightly obsessed with immortality. Could this pimply boy really be Grandpa Melvin? Has he finally found the secret to eternal youth?
With a lighthearted touch and plenty of humor, Jennifer Holm celebrates the wonder of science and explores fascinating questions about life and death, family and friendship, immortality . . . and possibility.
My thoughts: I loved this middle grade book about dealing with change and the inevitability of change!
Ellie's life is undergoing changes that she isn't happy about. Her best friend is moving on to other friends. She has left fifth grade and is now in sixth attending a middle school. Her grandfather is now living with them as a teenager and she found out her goldfish hasn't lived for seven years. It has been replaced several times by a concerned mother.
There are many great lessons that can be taken away from this book. One is that change isn't a bad thing. Ellie's life didn't shatter when her best friend found new friends. Ellie learned that she can make new friends and her life can still be good and fun. She noticed people around her and realized that even though they may look different, each is unique and can offer good things to her life.
The goldfish analogy was perfect. She found the thirteenth goldfish belly up in her tank. She discovered it wasn't the original. The lesson she learned about the life cycle was wonderful. Life is meant for plants, people, animals, etc to grow and fulfill a role on Earth. To change the pattern doesn't make the world a better place. It adds uncertainty and opens up many scenarios that would not be helpful to the world as a whole.
I highly recommend this book not just to children, but to everyone who enjoys a good story.
About the Author: (taken from Goodreads) Jennifer L. Holm is a NEW YORK TIMES bestselling children's author and the recipient of three Newbery Honors for her novels OUR ONLY MAY AMELIA, PENNY FROM HEAVEN, and TURTLE IN PARADISE.

And you thought there's absolutely no way for you to keep his poop hidden, at least till you don't return from work, finish your meals or are really in a mood to clean it up?
Well, you have to learn more about litter box furniture for the kittens and cats. Most of the people are fond of cats; you are not the only one with a soft corner for them in your heart! But people fear taking the responsibility, especially because cats are popular for pooping in neat and clean places. Don't you worry – if you want to pet a cat, don't stop yourself and adopt one, but don't forget to buy covered litter box furniture for his pooping needs.
In fact, I suggest that you first buy cat food, cat shampoo and the litter box furniture for him, way before you buy the cat. This is because once the cat poops somewhere, it is difficult for you to train him to poop in the litter box. Thus, from the day he steps into your life and house, it is better for you to train him to poop in the special furniture, which you have bought for him.
Such litter box furniture serves all sorts of purposes of your cat. Most of such box furniture have a flat surface, where the cats sit and clean themselves. Moreover, if you are someone who believes in adopting two to three cats, so that they can play together when you are not around to play with them, such furniture is all that you need. It can be used by all the cats that you have in your house. Also, if your cat turns old and (may Lord forbid) dies, you would surely want to adopt and take care of another cat. Such furniture is long lasting enough and can be used for a long time; all the cats that you adopt in future can reap the benefits of such litter box furniture.
I know there's one thing that you are worried about the most – money. First of all, cat food itself is too expensive and it is difficult for you to manage all the expenses. Thus, buying enclosed furniture only for the pooping needs of your cat may sound ridiculous to you. But trust me – it is not. The good news is that such furniture is quite affordable.

We are able to supply IXCG VoiceStream, our own cloud-based system or on-premises systems supporting a couple to thousands of extensions.

After last week's disappointing trading session, markets strived to make somewhat of a turnaround, with blue chips leading the way after several companies posted better-than-expected quarterly reports. The Dow Jones, S&P 500, and Nasdaq all posted positive gains at Friday's close, landing the indexes in a good position to record the first weekly gains of Q2. Positive developments in the Euro zone quelled tensions among investors, while robust earnings proved to be a bright spot amidst somewhat dismal U.S. economic reports. Housing starts data came in worse than expected, falling nearly 50,000 short of forecasts. U.S. weekly jobless claims also missed the mark, coming in above the projected 374,000 [see 5 ETFs For The Earnings Bull].
Continuing the somewhat sluggish pace, the ETF industry rolled out only three new funds this week. Markets were introduced to iShare's new Emerging Markets Corporate Bond Fund, CEMB, the second product offering investors exposure to this particular corner of the market. Additionally, RBS added a new "Trendpilot" ETN to their lineup that focuses on Chinese equities, while Global X launched its new MLP ETF [see also ETF Investors: What's In Your Index?].
Below we outline three of the best ETF stories from around the web this past week:
The Five Worst ETF Investments Ever at IndexUniverse:
Despite their popularity and high praise from investors, ETFs tend to get a significant amount of bad press. Although most of the critiques against exchange-traded funds are not true, there have been some ETFs that have struggled to live up to their expectations, fueling naysayers to continue misunderstanding these products. In this article, author Matt Hougan sheds light on the not so pretty side of the industry, outlining five of the worst ETFs ever.
ETFs For Earnings Season at Money And Markets:
Four times a year, investors sit on the edge of their seats, waiting for publicly-traded companies to issue their quarterly financial reports. Once released, investors pour over the books, dissecting and analyzing the plethora of numbers, figures, and data. Despite the vast amount of knowledge you can gain from looking at these reports, many investors are only concerned with the bottom line: earnings. This article, by Ron Rowland, explains what exactly earnings are and how investors can use ETFs to tap into companies who post high earnings.
ETPs For Trading Natural Gas at ETF Database:
Natural gas is probably one of the most cringe-worthy commodities on the market, given its unprecedented free fall over the last few years. Despite being wildly unpredictable and extremely volatile, some investors have noticed the commodity's recent behavior and are seeing an opportunity for potential lucrative returns. For those investors who can stomach the risk, author Jared Cummans outlines several ways to play natural gas with exchange-traded products.

Archer Daniels's most recent trend suggests a bearish bias. One trading opportunity on Archer Daniels is a Bear Call Spread using a strike $50.50 short call and a strike $55.50 long call offers a potential 10.86% return on risk over the next 10 calendar days. Maximum profit would be generated if the Bear Call Spread were to expire worthless, which would occur if the stock were below $50.50 by expiration. The full premium credit of $0.49 would be kept by the premium seller. The risk of $4.51 would be incurred if the stock rose above the $55.50 long call strike price.
The 5-day moving average is moving down which suggests that the short-term momentum for Archer Daniels is bearish and the probability of a decline in share price is higher if the stock starts trending.
The 20-day moving average is moving down which suggests that the medium-term momentum for Archer Daniels is bearish.
The RSI indicator is at 53.54 level which suggests that the stock is neither overbought nor oversold at this time.

Many fans, players and coaches do not know the 3 second rule in the bucket.
Once the ball crosses half court or the ball is thrown in bounds on a throw in in the front court. no player may stay in the 3 second area, the paint, the free throw lane or bucket for more than 3 seconds.
However if a player catches the ball before the official blows the whistle for three seconds then the offensive player may dribble towards the basket or make a pivot move in order to try to shoot the ball. If the player dribbles out of the lane or passes the ball out of the lane then it is a three second violation.
However if the player gets the ball out of his/her hands for the shot before an additional 3 seconds elapses then there is no violation.
This is an important rule to know. If you have the ball in the lane before you are called for three seconds then you still have 3 more seconds to shoot the ball.

TAUNTON - The Taunton High School student arrested Monday morning for threatening to shoot up the school with an AR-15 assault rifle and kill two police resource officers has been ordered held without bail for up to 120 days.
Kane Jefferson, 18, of 18 Hope St., was already being held without bail after his arraignment Monday afternoon in Taunton District Court on charges of threatening to use a deadly weapon, disturbing a school assembly and disorderly conduct.
During Thursday's Chapter 276 Section 58A dangerousness hearing in Taunton District Court, Judge Michael Brennan — after hearing testimony from police resource officer Jayson LaPlante — determined that Kane poses a potential threat of physical violence to others.
Court-appointed attorney Brian Roman argued that Jefferson should be released and allowed to return to his mother's apartment at 18 Hope St., because he does not possess or own any guns and has no prior criminal record of having committed an actual physical assault.
Roman noted that Jefferson previously, as a child, had been institutionalized for post traumatic stress disorder, and that he also suffers from other behavioral and psychological problems including attention deficit disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
He said Jefferson — who, while sitting at a table next to his lawyer, more than once asked questions of Roman while he was addressing the judge, and tried to ask questions of a nearby court officer — recently has been "splitting wood" while working at a Lakeville business called Al's Lumber.
Roma said Jefferson doesn't initiate physical confrontation, but instead "reacts badly" to being physically confronted.
LaPlante described how an agitated Jefferson — who he said had been suspended three weeks earlier for calling a classmate a "(expletive) N-word" and shouting that he should "go back to Africa" — immediately began flailing his arms when LaPlante and fellow resource officer Alfred Borges met him at the entrance to the school.
LaPlante said Jefferson, who had his cap pulled down and was walking toward the front door shortly before 11 a.m. as though he were "a student on a mission," immediately accosted the officers with obscenities.
Monday's incident came less than two weeks after police say Nikolas Cruz of Parkland, Florida, used an AR-15-type rifle to shoot to death 14 students and three adults inside Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
LaPlante stated that he and Borges were not taking any chances with Jefferson, who had previously as a student at Taunton High been suspended five times.
Police say Jefferson tried fighting with the officers when they attempted to escort him to the school's security office. LaPlante said Jefferson at one point bit him on the hand and tried kicking and elbowing both him and Borges.
Jefferson's actions that morning, LaPlante said, were those of someone who is "very, very desperate."
LaPlante, after the dangerousness hearing, said that he and Borges had been alerted to the fact that Jefferson that morning had called someone working in the school, possibly a guidance counselor, stating he was either on his way or was already on school grounds.
LaPlante said Jefferson, who previously refused to submit to a psychological evaluation, did not have an appointment that morning to meet with any school official.
LaPlante said he was under the impression Jefferson might be interested in signing a document confirming he was quitting school, and that he might have been interested in earning a GED-type degree and joining the military.
Brennan, during his ruling, said there is "clear, convincing evidence" that Jefferson poses a threat to others.
While being led out of court, Jefferson looked at a woman in the gallery and twice said, "All my heart."
The woman replied, "Keep strong."
A woman who identified herself as Jefferson's mother, but who did not provide her name, said after the hearing that Jefferson suffers from "social and emotional issues."
When asked her opinion of the judge's decision to hold her son for up to 120 days, she said, "He's not dangerous."
Jefferson is due in court April 4 for a probable cause hearing.

Taking a Leap of Faith: New York Plumbing Contractor Converts to Above-Floor Grinding Technology
Plumbing contractor Kerry Root was skeptical about installing a Saniflo grinder pump when two above-floor plumbing macerators from a different brand had failed his clients. But after some convincing by sales representative Troy Morgan and a fortunate accident, Root realized that the Sanibest Pro was the perfect fit for the couple's demanding basement plumbing needs.
ENDWELL, NY – Sometimes taking a leap of faith can produce positive results never dreamed of during the decision-making process. Although it's often tempting to tread in familiar waters and "go with what you know," breaking out of that comfort zone just once and trying something new could quickly render the old ways obsolete.
It's a lesson that plumbing contractor Kerry Root of 2 Guys Heating, Plumbing and Air Conditioning in Barton, N.Y., learned firsthand on a job. His clients, Ellen Conti and Jack Cook, had a recurring problem with their macerating toilet system, located in their home's basement.
The couple had bought the existing home in Endwell after moving into the area to run a jewelry business. Root had originally been hired to handle some necessary plumbing and heating work when the macerator in the downstairs bathroom began to malfunction. "The error code kept displaying, so we knew there was a problem," recalls Root.
A macerator is used in above-floor plumbing applications where the fixture is below the drain line. It employs rotating cutting blades to liquefy the waste and a pump to impel it up to the drain line. In this application, the couple had the macerator serving not only the toilet, but also the sink and shower in a full-bathroom application.
Unfortunately, this particular macerator proved unable to effectively break down the waste. "The man of the house regularly smoked a pipe and would flush the ashes down the sink," explains Root. "This, in conjunction with shaving cream, toilet paper and all the other waste going down the different drains proved too much for the macerator's razor-thin blades to handle."
Worst of all, this wasn't the first time the couple's macerator had failed. A few months prior, Root had been dealing with the same problem. That time, he had simply replaced it with the current system. Now, tired of costly callbacks and faced with a frustrated client, Root was dead set against installing another macerating system.
Giving it Another Shot
Root's plan to permanently resolve the couple's above-floor plumbing problems was to dig through the concrete and install a sewage ejection tank and pump. "I knew it would be much more costly and labor-intensive, but I also knew it would work because I had done it before," says Root.
A timely meeting with Troy Morgan, a sales representative with Empire States Associates, however, forced Root out of his comfort zone. "Troy had provided me with a good boiler on another job, so I trusted him, " notes Root.
But even trust could not initially make Morgan's proposed solution to Root's above-floor plumbing woes appealing. Morgan's cure-all? Another macerating system. "I told him he's got the wrong pump," recalls Morgan, before recommending the Sanibest Pro grinding system from Saniflo.
Saniflo originated macerating and grinding technology in the late 1950s and operates through 24 subsidiaries in 50 countries, having sold more than seven million units worldwide.
Unlike standard macerators, the Sanibest Pro comes equipped with a heavy-duty grinder that can easily handle the accidental flushing of sanitary articles, such as feminine products, baby wipes, dental floss, condoms, etc. The pump can discharge waste up to 25 vertical feet and 150 horizontal feet.
Morgan assured Root that this grinder would easily handle the ashes and other waste that had been clogging the couple's existing macerator, which had been designed for lighter use.
Root took a long time to convince. "Everyone always tells you that their product is the best and the fix-all solution, so I'm always skeptical, especially in this case when I had just dealt with not one, but two failed macerating systems," says Root.
Again, Morgan emphasized that this was a powerful grinder that could handle what the couple was flushing down the drain. Root also knew that his default plan of digging a sewage pit would be reliable, but extremely costly. Realizing how desperately the couple sought a working solution for their basement bathroom, he finally decided to give the grinder a try. "I was still very reluctant and skeptical going in," admits Root. That would soon change.
Facing the Power of the Pump
Root obtained the grinder from IRR Supply Center in Endicott and undertook the installation during October 2015. Still unconvinced of the unit's reliability on the day of the installation, Root got to work. "I just didn't trust it and couldn't help but wonder how many callbacks I would get for this grinder," he says.
His epiphany came as he was connecting the grinder to the various fixtures and mistakenly activated it. "I had temporarily used a paper towel plug to keep water from leaking during the installation. When I accidently activated the grinder, that wad of paper towel shot several feet across the room. At that point, I knew this product would work," he laughs.
The installation was extremely simple and took only one hour because the grinder connections were similar to that of the existing macerator. Root installed the grinder in front of the wall, although it is possible to install it behind the wall, using an extension pipe. The only challenge involved the proximity of the coupling to the wall, which created tight working conditions for Root and was a result of the prior installation.
In terms of cost savings, there was no comparison between choosing the grinder over the underground pump, according to Root. "Installing an underground pump would have cost at least five hours in labor to tear up the concrete and seal it back up. In addition, quarterly maintenance would have totaled up to $600 annually. By installing the grinder instead, the couple saved around $1,500."
Third Time's the Charm
Since the installation, Root has received no call-backs from the couple regarding the grinder. "The macerating system has been working just fine since Kerry installed it," says Ellen Conti. "Looks like third time's the charm."
This success has caused Root to become a passionate proponent of macerating technology. "It's the best I've seen," he praises.
He admits that many professionals in the plumbing industry remain skeptical of grinding and macerating technology. "A lot of guys are used to doing things they know and aren't willing to adopt something new, fearing that it won't work," he explains. "What they don't realize is that breaking out of their comfort zones and installing something new, like this grinder, can save time, money and the nastiness of potentially having to clean up malfunctioning plumbing equipment."
Now a convert, Root hopes to help other plumbing contractors "see the light" and consider above-floor grinding technology when applicable. "I would highly recommend it to anyone facing the similar challenge of having to install plumbing below the drain line," says Root. "Take that leap of faith like I did."

At the session on 20th January, I was delighted to introduce discussion on a paper in the 'provocations' section of Environmental Humanities journal – Mapping common ground (Bergthaller et al, 2014) – and the equally provocative introductory essay to the volume Anticipatory history (DeSilvey, Naylor & Sackett, 2011). A significant focus for me is the short entries in that book (some of which we circulated with the longer papers).
Anticipatory history and the complementary paper Making sense of transience (DeSilvey 2012) have informed my work in the context of coastal change and my writing. As a set of ideas, anticipatory history offers an experimental and exploratory approach to considering the future in place and how we relate to that in the present. An important aim is to question, even unsettle, the settled views we have of 'the past' and of the dominant versions of 'the future' that we desire or fear. We need to broaden our understanding of place and the processes which change it, rather than narrow our vision and prematurely define the scripts we want everyone to act from. As such, anticipatory history opens up space for multiple perspectives, taking the diversity of 'place voices' as our starting point – and the likely end point. It questions assumptions of permanence and certainty: the same but more so than the recent move beyond climate change scenarios that once presented simplistic 'snap shot' alternative futures requiring equal consideration but providing only modest practical help, to more probabilistic projections where we need to address our own 'risk appetites' for the futures we are prepared to make and to hand on. But where climate scenarios talk of probabilities, which most of us are ill-equipped to deal with, anticipatory history talks of plausabilities: what can we imagine, based on what we know of the present and the past? And, anyway, how much is 'the' past a product (or process) of imagination in the first place? We need to appeal to imagination as well as evidence in anticipating the range of plausible futures that climate and environmental change are carving out for us.
Some of the angles of imaginative attack that I see anticipatory history offering are:
Space for alternative storylines. For example, the use of reverse chronology approaches to a site, as with Mullion Harbour in Cornwall (DeSilvey, 2012), and the building of new narratives through hearing different 'place voices' at past points and imagining the futures that peoples then might have projected forward, and which we might now: "looking back to look forward."
A fresh look at the language we use and the way we talk about change, place and our options. For example, the array of policy or expert jargon among the disciplines and professions often collide with each other and with public discussion. The everyday language we use to express and reinforce our sense of place, nature and culture is highly metaphorical; and our metaphors can carry different meanings and associations than those we imply. When we come together to share different perspectives on change, we may share an illusion of sharing the meanings of our words while in reality we are 'talking past each other'. Maybe a room can be divided by a common language even without the open hostility we encounter when specialist jargons are heard as nonsensical words.
Opportunities for naming new names for unfamiliar or novel responses to environmental change. For example, coining a phrase such as "Palliative Curation" for the sensitive handling of the passing of a landscape or cultural artefact is a provocation to open ourselves up to a different view – or to a new argument entirely.
Conversations about change will always be difficult – very often turning and building on notions of loss, blame, guilt. When talk involves both the people who feel directly impacted by change or by the responses to it, and the experts and officials charged with deciding and delivering those responses, then conflict is highly likely – as many agencies have discovered and seem likely to keep discovering. And as we experience more of the impacts of a changing climate, we can expect more conflicts over the future of the places we or our neighbours attach our highest values to. We need ways to keep the conversations open and, it seems to me, engage our imaginations as well as our abilities to take on board evidence and argument.
With all this in mind, I was please to have Mapping common ground as our other main pre-reading. Some of the common ground with anticipatory history, for me, lies in the insistence that environmental crisis is as much cultural and social as it is physical, and that an adventurous approach can help us reach beyond the professional, academic and expert-public boundaries. Part of that adventure is the need to question our own 'givens' and to address the difficult 'chokepoints' along the borders. It also requires the skill of working across the boundaries, accepting what each party has to offer – which in the case of the humanities includes the ability to grapple with ambiguity. In the shuttling backwards and forwards between the whole and the parts, the past and the future, culture and nature (both our environment and ourselves as shaper and shaped), the aim is to help us to forge insights rather than (just) to formulate new knowledge.
Fiction is one way of engaging imaginations and building insights through conversation. Many of the same elements – plotting alternative storylines, challenging the language, and bringing new words and ideas to the fore – enliven fiction. Possibly, they can also enrich what we hold to be 'the facts'. I'm hoping that bringing people together for participatory creative writing (or drawing, photography, craft or performance) workshops can create good conversations about change as well as good fictions.

London Olympics 2012, Spain Vs. Russia Final Score: Hot Shooting Propels Spain To Gold-Medal Game
Through one half of play, it looked like Spain was dead in the water against Russia in the semifinals of the 2012 Olympic basketball tournament. Russia's defense was frustrating them, and they hit just six field goals in the first half. But all that changed in the second half, as they caught fire from three-point range to rally for a 67-59 win and a berth in the gold-medal game.
Russia led by 11 at halftime, but Spain started to rally in the third quarter, outscoring Russia, 26-15, to pull even heading into the fourth. Russia held off their early surge, but Spain went into the lead with 7:21 remaining on a three-pointer by Jose Calderon. That proved to be the surge they needed, as they ended up going on a 14-1 run to take control of the game.
Pau Gasol was the catalyst for Spain, scoring 16 points and grabbing 10 rebounds while leading the comeback. Calderon had 14 points, including 4-9 from downtown, and he was especially good in the second half. Sasha Kaun had 14 to lead Russia.
Spain will now advance to the gold-medal game on Sunday at 10 a.m. EST, where they could meet Team USA in a rematch of the Beijing gold-medal game. Russia will square off against the loser of the Team USA-Argentina semifinal in the bronze-medal game on Sunday.

Select location menu
I just came from a trip from Azerbaijan. I took some photos and tried to upload them. However it was impossible to select the name of "AZERBAIJAN" in the "Select Location menu" . When I selected the name of Azerbaijan, the name poped up and immediately disappeared. Hope you can solve this problem.
I think you enter something else and then go back and correct it ine que ??

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to play for the Arapahoe Philharmonic's annual Children's Concert. I always look forward to these, because it is an opportunity to expose hundreds of young people to the wonders of the orchestra. I kick around the percussion section, toying with xylophones, timpani, snare drums, gongs, slide whistles…you name it. They come up onto the stage and watch myself and the others do this before the concert starts. And if the program was done right, the power and the mystery of the orchestra and its music will also inspire them. It's actually my favorite concert of the year.
However, playing was not all I had the privilege of doing there. The powers that be liked my World Championship composition so much when I had them record it that they wanted me to conduct it for the children. They also wanted me to do two versions: one without the scene and one with the scene. The idea was that after we did it without the scene, the kids would tell us what they thought the music represented. I thought this was a spectacular idea…something that would really get the kids engaged and curious about music in film in addition to concert music.
The rehearsals were a little rough, but that was as much my fault as it was theirs. I learned a good lesson that first rehearsal: even if it's your own piece, you could stand to go over it before you get up there. Getting the tempos in time with the picture isn't the same thing as knowing how the music goes. If you take a section even slightly faster or slower, you have to do some major course correcting later on and it starts to feel a little like a cartoon.
Thankfully, though, the rehearsal time was enough and the concert went beautifully. When the kids were asked to describe what the music reminded them of, I received several comments that were truly touching. Many of them indicated that it sounded like a kingdom or an army, which is pretty much exactly what I was going for. Some of them even likened it to Lord of the Rings or Star Wars! I tried not to get a big head about it. 😛
Almost every orchestra has a children's concert somewhere in their season. But I would be willing to bet that many of these ensembles don't go to such lengths to put together a program like this for it, or to let kids close to the instruments and even carefully play them a little. And that is the most critical ingredient: kids need to be engaged. It is hard for them to be engaged when ALL of the music is rather inaccessible, or if the orchestra is some intangible, sterile music making machine before them. My own piece certainly wasn't the only example of creative and interactive programming. We also played one of Gregory Smith's most recent educational compositions: The Animated Orchestra. It is a narrated story about a ferret who breaks the fourth wall and wreaks havoc on the orchestra as they play. He climbs into various instruments, causing humorous cracks and irritated faces from the conductor.
This is a tradition that I sincerely hope is to be continued, because the stigma of classical music being too inaccessible and boring is simply ridiculous. This music accompanies our favorite cartoons, movies, television shows, video games and so many other forms of media we consume. It helps to make it what it is. And in many cases, it is an experience in and of itself.
I will truly miss being a regular member of this fine ensemble, and I hope it continues to enrapture audiences for decades to come, young and old alike.

The other day, I posted a compilation of videos exploring teeny, tiny homes. Some were your archetypical hippy hobbit hole in the country. Others, however, were high-tech apartments in the trendy neighborhoods of major cities
This topic is not new among environmentalists. And with good reason.
The smaller your living space is, the lower your heating and cooling costs are. Not only that, but more compact spaces also encourage a more mindful approach to consumption – forcing inhabitants to whittle down their belongings to those things that they only need and use.
What's fascinating, however, is that this trend is now reaching well beyond the ethically driven hardcore environmentalist. Tiny homes are becoming decidedly mainstream — at least as far as hip, city-dwelling singles are concerned.
Wendy Koch of USA Today has a fascinating look at why mini-apartments are the next big thing.
Driven by the revitalization of many American downtowns, and the rising property prices that go with it, young people are more than willing to trade square footage and privately owned amenities for a prime location, lower rent and communal spaces. This trend, says Koch, is aided by the digitization of many of our belongings – books, music, etc. – not to mention the rise of collaborative consumption:
"They'll sacrifice space for 'quality' location, says Doug Bibby, chief executive of the National Multi-Housing Council, a trade group, noting apartments overall are getting smaller. He says young city dwellers manage with less room by renting rather than buying stuff. "They rent everything," he says — Zipcars, even wedding dresses."
For more on the shift toward tiny apartments, head on over to USA Today.

His Honor-Elect, the public librarian's friend

Michael Nutter has won the election--he will be the next Mayor of Philadelphia. You may remember him from The Rescuers--Politicians of the Year 2005 in Library Journal.
Weirdness I found while looking around:
End Quote: The Most Articulate Michael Nutter Suck-Off Out There. What's a suck off? The Chargers losing?
My Philly past somehow meets San Diego present? In any case, huzzah for Michael Nutter.

In general bed and breakfast houses prefer it if you book in advance, you can usually find a listing of guest houses in a specific area by doing a internet search. There are many hotels and guest houses with websites allowing you to view the room and costs before making an inquiry.

XVET in Aviana Nigeria
- April 30, 2018
On the 25th and 26th of April, XVET marked its
presence in Aviana Nigeria, an important international exhibition for Poultry
Dairy and Aquaculture that took place in Ibadan. Nigeria is often referred to
as the "Giant of Africa" owing to its large population and
economy and therefore is an important market for XVET.
Mr. Burak Ruperez, Head of Technical and Sales department, represented XVET during these days, alongside with the local partner. In addition to the exhibition, there was also time for technical training about biosecurity, antimicrobial resistance and product alternatives to AGPs.
This visit was also crucial to learn more about the local needs and new ways to grow the presence in what is the world's 20th largest economy. In cooperation with our local partner, we work together for a 'Better Tomorrow' for Nigeria as well.

"Each breath is just a trace of time"
Part of the overture of "LUNGEN", prelude No.1, No.2 and No.3.
No.3 LUNGEN, is a piece in which the breathing is the main axis of the whole, giving the structure for the composition in the video and in sound. This video shot entirely with a passive infra red light, emphasizes the reflective material divided in two layers; a grid and a fragmented body, capturing each breath, and superposing it with the sound composition. Based on a series of "Breathing Drawings" (Alejandro Casazi) the sound itself is a sequence of recordings done by Christopher Jette, in which capturing the sounds of graphite over paper, breathing and the movement of the body over wood (Bianca Brigidi). These recordings would be the raw material in which the whole sound composition is created integrating with the video in a numerical sequence in which every breath is taken as a compass.
Based on the series of "Breathing Drawings" and the artist book "flock" by Alejandro Casazi. Lungen is a multilayered performance piece, created by Bianca Brigidi and Alejandro Casazi, awarded with the "Visual, Performing and Media Arts Award", provided by The Interdisciplinary Humanities Center (IHC), University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB). The interconnection of dance (performed by Ekaterina Zharinova), sound (Christopher Jette, and singers) and drawing (Casazi) is based on an empathic repetitive movement, sound and time: the breathing.
An abstract interaction of strong visual, corporal and sonic gestures, conducted all by the rythm of the lungs.
