Remember when I didn't want to be on Twitter? (Read Why I'm Not on Twitter as a refresher!) Later, I caved and put this blog on Twitter, so I could communicate better with you guys, and it's been interesting so far. The reason I didn't initially want to join was because Twitter seems to be so full of haters. Recently, a study showed that my gut feeling was true:
The survey tank's latest findings sum up a year's worth of comparisons between the reactions of the general public to breaking-news events and the tenor of the reactions on Twitter. The main takeaway isn't surprising, but it's worth noting nonetheless: As much as the media leans on Twitter as an instant public-opinion barometer, the microblogging site's users really aren't representative of the nation at large.
Twitter users skew young and left—they leaned hard toward Barack Obama during the election and for gay rights in California. But the most consistent bias that Pew found was not toward liberals or conservatives. It was a bias against, well, almost everything. For instance, the Twitterati were heavily against Obama's nomination of John Kerry for Secretary of State, and they thought the president's 2012 State of the Union speech was a stinker. (In both cases, Pew found the public as a whole generally supportive.) And while they evinced more hate for Romney than Obama overall, negative comments toward both "exceeded positive comments by a wide margin throughout the fall campaign season." In Pew's words:
At times the Twitter conversation is more liberal than survey responses, while at other times it is more conservative. Often it is the overall negativity that stands out.
So, what do you think? Do you guys who are on Twitter love it or hate it? This blog is on there… for now, though we get lots of mean Tweets from people. If you'd like to follow me there, please go here… and show me some Twitter love instead of hate!

~ Somebody's Katie ~
Sat next to a gray-haired man named Harry
While on a long wait
at a departure gate.
He looked at me and said:
My world was an awesome story for two
That lasted for over half a century.
Katie was the woman I chose to marry
Who had the command to comfortably hang out with.
She was the other kid in the playground
I would most like to play with.
So now I stand,
In a place I never stood before
And I find myself
A reason to believe that…
Maybe I want to be somebody's Katie.
I'm starting to believe the other side of me
Who's been too lazy that…
Maybe I want to be somebody's world.
Somebody's force of light
Part of a story, beginning, middle or end.
Somebody's moon, full and bright
Somebody's breeze, just cool and right.
Harry said:
From the time the bouquet was thrown
And my queen took my ring and made me her king,
Until the time she took her last breath,
Katie was beaming with joy.
And as she was graced with silver hair
and unflattering creases she dared not to bare,
I loved Katie even more,
Maxed out to the core.
In this light,
I'm beginning to see the crazy part of me that…
I wanna be somebody's Katie
To be somebody's other kid in the playground…
Somebody's crescent in the sky, semi-circle or round.
Somebody's star, sublime with infinite glow,
To captivate and hold a power that we never out-grow.
Yes, I want it all…
The dress, the bouquet, the orange blossoms, and the "I'll Be's,"
Even the gray hair, the creases and the wrinkle freeze
Just like Harry had Katie.
I'll Be by Edwin McCain
Marry Me by Train and Martina McBride

I am currently following the Magmi course and have downloaded the 7 real life example.csv.
When I attempt to import the products on it with Magmi I get these errors
error 1:SQLSTATE[22007]: Invalid datetime format: 1366 Incorrect integer value: 'None' for column 'value' at row 3 – INSERT INTO mg_catalog_product_entity_int

error 4:SQLSTATE[23000]: Integrity constraint violation: 1048 Column 'entity_type_id' cannot be null – ERROR ON RECORD #2
warning:Skus imported KO:2/2
Any help on how to resolve these errors would be greatly appreciated.
Update: I think the issue is fix. I was using "None" as the cell input for "tax_class_id. Using a 0 instead stops these errors and selects None when the product is created in Magento.
Glad you managed to get it resolved. Magmi is a stickler for the rules ha ha it doesn't interpret well
Every expert was once a beginner
Hi Dave
Thanks for the reply. Your not wrong. Precision is certainly key with Magmi from what I have learnt so far.
I am loving the guides you and Matt have set up here. Thank you so much for them.
We have been using WidgetChimp for some time now but have shied away from tackling the step up from using Turbolister as Magento+M2E Pro seemed like such a mammoth and complex task. Its not so scary with your easy to follow guides (though still complex with alot to learn).
Not sure if this is the right area to ask (please let me know if I need to post under a different sub) but I am having some trouble figuring out how to properly use the combination of websites and store views to achieve what I want magento + m2e pro to do for me.
My situation is
I need multiple websites. Each with their own domain, eBay store and Amazon store. They will be selling the exact same products (same SKU's) but at varying quantities and potentially prices too.
eg. I have product A that needs to have 3 units available on website 1 (along with its eBay store and Amazon store) and 10 units available on website 2 (with 10 units available on its own eBay and Amazon stores).
Currently I have been and created the different websites and created separate root categories for each website in Magento.
I can import product A into Magento and assign it to the correct categories in Website 1 with its desired quantity (in this example 3 units for website 1).
This issue arises when I then attempt to import the same product but with a different quantity and assign it to the correct category in Website 2.
The product is then removed from the categories in website 1 and moved to website 2.
Is there a way to stop the product moving or will I just have to use multiple SKU's for the same product in order to achieve this?
Apologies for the length of this rant.
Give this thread a read here and check out the links this should help you out: https://understandinge.com/forum/multiple-store-questions/creating-multi-websites-and-stores-in-magento-separating-ebay-amazon-etc-sales-channels/
Every expert was once a beginner
Hi Dave
Thanks again for the reply.
I have managed get get multiple websites up and running in the last few days which is great.
I believe I have also figured out that what I was asking for in regards to the SKU's and how they might be handled can't be done.
As the SKU is a unique identifier for a product any time I attempt to import that SKU into a different category using Magmi the previous category placement (and anything else I change) of that SKU will be updated.
The only solution I can think of is to use different variations of the SKU to assign it to each of my websites/stores. Simply using a prefix for each website should do the job, eg. Store A – IAMASKU and Store B – IAMASKU.
Both will be exactly the same product but they can now be assigned to different websites with their own category structure, quantaties, prices and all the rest.

"Ice Cream Nation" Premieres on Contemporary Living Network
Flagship series can be seen on contemporaryliving.tv
December 10, 2014; Atlanta, GA; – Contemporary Living Network, Inc. (CLN) announces the premiere of the first two episodes of "Ice Cream Nation": "Ice Cream Basics" and "Pumpkin and Spice". "Ice Cream Nation" is the latest original programming to be made available for free streaming on contemporaryliving.tv, with more episodes soon to follow.
Says Walter Biscardi, Jr., Executive Producer of "Ice Cream Nation", "We're very happy to get this great series out to audiences and ice cream lovers. Not only do we think viewers will really enjoy the step by step guides, but we're excited by the possibilities of our digital platform. We can react to audience feedback much more rapidly, giving them exactly what they want to see more quickly than traditional media."
"Ice Cream Nation" follows chef Keith Schroeder (author, "Mad Delicious") on the road as he finds unique ingredients across the country to inspire new ice cream flavors. Back at the home kitchen, Keith shows our audience how to make incredible homemade ice cream inspired by his travels. Viewers will find Keith's relaxed approach to cooking easy and accessible, with supplemental recipe information available from CLN to help guide them along the way to making great ice cream in their own kitchen.
In the first episode of "Ice Cream Nation", viewers learn the basics of creating the base of almost every ice cream Keith will make on the show. Because of the structure of CLN's programming, it'll be easy to jump back to this episode for reference later. Biscardi added, "we're taking advantage of streaming media by building the series essentially as a big cook book with chapters. It's easy to refer back to earlier chapters so Keith doesn't have to repeat the same steps over and over."
The second episode, "Pumpkin and Spice", features Keith's journey to Jaemor Farms in Alto, Georgia, in search of the perfect pumpkin for cooking. He also reminds us why it's so important — and fun — to seek out local sources for ingredients.
"Finding the candy roaster pumpkins at Jaemor Farms was a great example of how going to a local farm really pays off in the kitchen. I'd never heard of a candy roaster but wow, it was so sweet and made a perfect ice cream! You might have to drive a little further to find these sources, but the end result is always worth it," said Keith.
Back at the kitchen, Keith crafted a homemade pumpkin and spice ice cream that includes a habanero for an extra kick. He also featured one of Jaemor's fried pies on the side, another great local find.
As the founder of High Road Craft Ice Cream, Keith has been praised widely for his ice-cream skills, including by Alton Brown (Iron Chef, Good Eats) who recently said "I'm pretty sure this is the best ice cream in America right now."
Additional episodes of "Ice Cream Nation", including visits to a beer growler and beekeeper and ice creams inspired by them, will be available in the coming weeks. "Ice Cream Nation" can currently be viewed on the Ice Cream Nation Show Page.

A year or so ago I gave up eating potatoes, white rice, and other high carb foods at the suggestion of my doctor. He felt that too high a carb intake might have been at the root of some issues I was having. It was easy for me to do and I followed that advice, though it seemed to have little effect, if any, on the issues at hand.
Two months ago I was in the hospital for several days and the specialists there found other underlying causes for several things that had been effecting me. They changed some medications and made some adjustments to my dietary considerations. Among the changes was a loosening of the carbohydrate restrictions. This allowed me to once again eat potatoes and other carb-based foods.
Three weeks ago we had baked potatoes for the first time since the earlier restriction. They were so good that we bought more potatoes, and over the course of this three week period I probably ate between six and eight baked potatoes. My wife had three or so during the same time frame.
It was also about three weeks ago that we both began to experience intestinal distresses outside of what one would consider normal. Bloating, gas, rumbling stomach and intestines, and having to go the bathroom several times a day. It hit me more than my wife, and we figured it was a stomach bug of some sort, though we weren't sick otherwise, nor feverish.
Four or five days ago we were both suffering more than usual with the problems when my wife observed that the only food we had eaten in common during that time frame on a consistent level was the potatoes, and wondered if they could be involved.
After a few minutes on the internet I found out that potatoes, a member of the deadly nightshade family of plants, can indeed poison the body and cause every symptom that we had been experiencing. Not only the digestive issues, but other things that we hadn't put together can be caused from eating potatoes. We both, during the same time frame, had been experiencing stuffy noses, excess sinus drainage, small water blisters on our legs, ankles, and hands, general lethargy and listlessness, etc. All symptoms of potato toxins in the body.
We haven't had potatoes since then and some or most of the symptoms are improving or have already disappeared.
Potatoes contain the alkaloid, solanine which is extremely toxic. The ingestion of the potato can produce gastrointestinal pain and symptoms of diarrhea, bloating, gas, stomach cramps, headache, and dizziness. Solanine in potatoes can also cause hallucinations, loss of feeling and/or tingling in the body's extremities, heart and liver damage, and small, itchy blisters on the skin. As the body metabolizes solanine from potatoes, it can produce amilic alcohol, which is a very toxic substance.
Some people have potato toxicity misidentified as "I B S" ( Irritable Bowel Syndrome), as they both have common manifestations of the effects on the gut. Some cases of potato toxicity have even been diagnosed as Crohn's disease.
When potato is digested, traces of the toxins enter the bloodstream, so that any part of the body sensitive to the toxin will react, producing symptoms localized to that part of the body. For example if the skin is sensitized, eczema may appear, if the joints are sensitized they can become inflamed, or the nervous system will react with emotional or behavioral effects. This is why sufferers referred to a specialist clinic for the organ or system affected may find that the consultant does not know that food intolerance can cause problems in his or her field of speciality.
Potato toxicity explained other symptoms we were having without knowing that they were even symptomatic. We both had been experiencing some amount of mood disorder not typical to us, and had been experiencing joint pain that we attributed to other causes, as well as a general lack of energy and mental concentration.
I also discovered that quite a large number of people have found that peeling, scraping, or even touching potatoes causes itchy hands and skin reactions. Scraping potatoes produces a very fine spray of juice which can cause itching of nose or eyes, and sometimes asthma outbreaks. These people are probably allergic to potato and the allergy might become more extensive, so avoidance is sensible.
There were many reports of all manner of effects on the nervous system, especially depression, anxiety, migraine or feeling confused and lethargic. Some children had gross misbehavior, dyslexia, and learning difficulties which disappeared when potatoes were avoided, only to recur if being exposed to potatoes.

In historical reality, Ceasar's Empire stretched from the north of what is now England, into Egypt and all the way east to where Iran is now. But there's another vast land holding that is now, this month, about to fall under the sway of the mighty Caesar…the mighty nation of Canada. There is currently a campaign afoot to declare the Caesar to be Canada's official cocktail. Of course, for most of our readers who haven't spent time in Canada or the UK, the idea of the Caesar might seem strange or even somewhat disgusting. Why? Because a Caesar is just like a Bloody Mary, but with the addition of delicious clam juice.
Contrary to what you might have expected, this addition of crushed seafood to an otherwise normal drink took Canada by storm. It was first consumed 40 years ago this year, in Calgary, Alberta. And Canadians have been chugging them back ever since. For our readers outside Caesar's Empire, you won't find these delicious cocktails at any bar or club. But they're easy enough to make at home, with a shot of vodka, a little Tabasco and Worcestershire sauce, a generous serving of Clamato juice and garnished with celery. And don't worry, they're much more delicious than they sound.
Not interested in adding seafood to your cocktail? You can still take a few spins on the online slot Caesar's Empire. It's actually about the ancient roman empire, has a great bonus round and a random, progressive jackpot…and contains no references to clam juice

It's so difficult to express your feelings when someone experiences the loss of a loved one – words often seem so inadequate.
Sending flowers is a thoughtful way to express your feelings and to extend sympathy – and with such a wide array of colours and arrangements to choose from, you can personalise your sentiments – perhaps by capturing a person's personality, favourite colour or type of flower within a wreath, sheaf, spray, posy arrangement, basket arrangement or a traditional bouquet.
The most important thing to remember is, whatever you choose it should express your personal feelings and the thoughts and sentiments you wish to convey.
At a time of loss, people are comforted by the gestures of their friends and family. A gesture can often express far more than words.
Giving flowers is a beautiful way to offer comfort and condolences and when it comes to choosing the flowers you want to send, we make it as easy as possible.
We work closely with local funeral directors and if you would like our advice, please feel free to call us on ……….

I am – Hercules!!
The SciFi Channel is doing what Fox never did: running all the "Firefly" episodes produced, and running them in the correct order.
I reckon they'll have run though all 15 hours right about the time its big-screen sequel, "Serenity," hits cinemas Sept. 30.
Here's what the press was saying about the show just before its September 2002 premiere:
TV Guide says:
Negative buzz attached itself to Firefly after Fox asked Whedon to film a new first episode. But from what little we've seen, Firefly looks ambitious, provocative and original. Underestimate the gifted Whedon at your own peril.
Variety says:
Cheeky and charming, Joss Whedon's attempt to fuse oaters with "Star Trek" is just silly enough to work but there's plenty of B-movie attraction here to win over young Friday night viewers who have little else to choose from at 8:00. …"Firefly's" wide spectrum of characters is its greatest asset, since any of its ensemble could take center stage from week to week. Mal and Book seem to be the leaders, but that every personality trait is represented, from pouty to dangerous to intellectual, is a perfect way to hide some of its flaws (most notably a reliance on cartoon violence and ridiculously staged stunts that could have given way to more creative methods of larceny). … Whedon, who directed and co-wrote the debut, has also taken a page from "The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr." a years-old, short-lived series that likewise brought sarcasm and impudence to a genre that until then was strictly serious. "Firefly" has a lot of wink-wink dialogue, breezy acting and sexual chemistry that's never appeared in the science-fiction TV realm, and it's all executed by some very likable people.
The Hollywood Reporter says:
In a new season largely bereft of innovative ideas or daring concepts, "Firefly" stands out like a supermodel at a bus stop. In this, the first series by "Buffy" creator Joss Whedon under his development deal with Fox, he combines the sci-fi and Western formats, peppers them with wit and action and comes up with something truly original and highly watchable. … You might think it would be impossible to find an intersection between the high-tech world of sci-fi and the low-tech world of Westerns, but Whedon pulls it off. Mostly, he does this by avoiding the gaudier elements of sci-fi and creating a universe with a mixture of technologies, barren landscapes and an Asian influence.

DALLAS (CBSDFW.COM) – FBI agents say they now consider an accused Dallas murderer among their Most Wanted Fugitives and are offering a reward for information leading to his arrest.
Faustino Valdez is wanted in connection with the death of his ex-girlfriend, 34-year-old Marisol Espinosa. The mother of three was last seen before leaving to go work at a hair salon in NorthPark Center just after Christmas in 2015. Three days after her disappearance, Espinosa's SUV was found abandoned in the parking lot of a Pleasant Grove apartment complex. The doors were locked and her purse and belongings were still inside.
Espinosa's remains were found under a bridge in southeast Dallas more than two months after she disappeared.
Valdez was the last person to have reportedly seen Espinosa and initially was very active in the search for her. While out searching with members of her family he told CBS 11 News how strange it was for her to simply vanish. "Without her telling anybody anything… no, she wouldn't do this. It's not like her," he said.
It was shortly after that interview that Valdez disappeared. He was indicted for murder in Dallas County in April of 2016 and is believed to have fled to avoid arrest and prosecution. Investigators believe he may now be in Mexico.
Valdez is an Hispanic male who stands 5'8", weighs approximately 210 pounds and has black hair and brown eyes. Valdez also has several tattoos on his chest, left shoulder and right shoulder.
Now a reward of up to $10,000 is being offered for any information leading to the arrest of the 35-year-old.
Anyone who knows the whereabouts of Faustino Lara Valdez should can contact officials at 800-CALL-FBI (800-225-5324) or submit a tip online on the FBI tips and public leads page.
Authorities do consider Valdez armed and dangerous.

A new proposal put forth by Professor of Psychology Tim Kasser would seek to redefine what it means to receive an A grade and require the Registrar to list more information about a student's relative achievement on all transcripts.
At the moment, an A is defined by faculty regulation C7.2, which states, "The grade of A shall be recorded for performance that is outstanding in relation to that which is competent or fully satisfactory for progress toward the Knox baccalaureate degree."
Kasser's proposal, presented to the assembled faculty at this month's faculty meeting, would change that wording to require faculty to award an A "When a student has demonstrated substantial mastery of the vast majority of the material and skills taught in the class."
A second part of the proposal would require the Registrar to list average grades earned in the class alongside the student's grade when printing transcripts. This would seek to give employers and graduate schools a better sense of how a student was doing by allowing them to see the difficulty of the courses that they were taking.
He was prompted by data showing the vast disparity in the number of A's awarded by department, saying, "We need to find out a way to be more consistent about what an A means." Recent data shows that almost half of all grades given out at Knox are A's, triggering concern that some departments are grading their students easier than others.
A number of faculty members questioned the proposed wording changes.
There was a great deal of discussion whether the adjectives "substantial" and "vast majority" raised the standards necessary to achieve an A or lowered them. This lack of clarity was a point of some concern, as it might subvert the proposal's intended purpose of standardizing the value of an A across the school.
Professor of Theatre Elizabeth Carlin-Metz defended the old definition along these lines, saying that it has "clarity that is readily available to the students."
Associate Professor of Political Science Andrew Civettini disagreed and found the new definition clearer, arguing that standards for what is "fully satisfactory" to expect from students may be very different even if they were in the same class.
Civettini also raised concerns about whether the phrase "in the class" excluded non-classroom activities done for credit such as internships and independent study projects. Kasser said that he thinks all such projects should be graded on a S/U basis.
There was major concern about the possible negative effects the wording change and possible accompanying deflation might have on students' ability to apply to grad school or jobs, with grade inflation so prevalent nationwide. Knox is already in the bottom half of comparable regional liberal arts schools in terms of average grade awarded.
The second half of the proposal also generated its share of critcism.
Kasser said that his hope was to "convey meaningful information to the student and the outside world." The intention of this part of the proposal is to help students who are receieving lower GPAs because of their more rigorous courses to be evaluated fairly on their transcripts.
Professor of Political Science Lane Sunderland spoke out in favor of the proposal.
"I like the transparency," he said, noting that he often had added paragraphs to letters of recommendation for students whose GPAs did not reflect accurately how challenging their courses were.
Professor of Physics and Registrar Charles Schulz admitted that he did not know how such a transcript would be perceived. He also expressed worry about privacy with smaller classes. Visiting Assistant Professor of Physics Nathalie Haurberg pointed out that in courses below a certain size, the statistical value of an average grade would be minimal anyway.
Assistant Professor of Biology Matthew Jones-Rhoades proposed a single cumulative GPA of what other students earned in all classes the student took as a way of mitigating privacy concerns.
Kasser said that there were some schools that did print such transcripts, although no one present brought one forward as an example. Assistant Professor of Computer Science Jamie Spacco said that Knox should not be the first school to do this.
Ulimately it was decided to give the matter to the Academic Standing Committee to investigate. The results of that investigation will be reported back sometime before March.
As an alumni now navigating grad school applications, I LOVE this idea. A "B" means a lot more if the average class got a "C," but it still shows a strong effort on the part of the student. Having taken science courses at other universities over the summer, I can attest that Knox's were far more difficult – which means I learned more and feel better prepared for graduate school, but have a "B" where a student from a different university got an "A" in the same course with less effort. This allows the college to avoid grade inflation while still expressing the strong work a student did.
But "A's" should still be outstanding – making them just "mastering the material" is qualitative grade inflation in and of itself. There has to be a way to distinguish above and beyond. Achieving mastery of the material is the goal of the course itself and should be the minimum expectation.
you, Tim Kasser! Students do need consistency in what grades they're
awarded, and people evaluating our transcripts do need to fully
understand what our grades mean.
Regarding what qualifies as an A, I don't believe that it should mean having gone "above and beyond" the requirements of the class. Why is having gone beyond the requirements of the course supposed to be built into the grading system for the course? If I get 95% on an exam, I have gotten an A, but I haven't gone beyond the expectations, unless the expectations are that I only complete 75% of the answers correctly. And for many courses, that is the expectation. Demonstrating "substantial mastery of the vast majority" of the course material seems to be all that a student could do and be graded for – anything further is an independent project.
That may perhaps be an inflation, but it's an inflation that has already occurred, and thus needs to be recognized officially.
"almost half of all grades given out at Knox are A's"
At first, I really like these proposals. Now I think they miss the point. The regulations don't need to change in order to be in line with current grading practices. Instead, an 'A' should only be given if the student's work is indeed outstanding. It seems Kasser only took this approach because professors have no authority over other professors' grading practices.
I like the class average idea, because it gives context. But Spacco is right, Knox can be on the leading edge, but should careful to avoid being on bleeding edge.

Julia moved to London in 2002, she finished a postgraduate degree in Architecture and worked in the industry. After being diagnosed with ulcerative colitis in 2012, she was not able to return to work in the corporate industry.
She fell in love with Jumping HIIT workout on mini trampolines with a handle-bar, and she quickly turned her Jumping passion into becoming an owner of Jumping
Julia studios in London.
Julia found Jumping as a means of accepting and appreciating her body and mind which also helped her on her way to recovery. It gave her not only physical strength, but also strengthened her mentally and gave her a great deal of happiness that she spread to other areas of her life.
"She believes that everything happens for a reason. Even the most unpleasant things in life represent a positive and significant change in life".
What she does, now.
This experience taught her how to set goals, work hard and persevere no matter the setbacks. Her vision, from the beginning, was to create a place where people could learn, grow and transform themselves and their business.
Now for Julia, the best part about setting up her business and becoming the Exclusive UK Distributor for World Jumping is the privilege of offering what she has learnt and sharing it with others.

aka Michael Todd Schneider…
"…akin to smashing your teeth into the coffee table for ninety minutes."
The first words on Schneider's work by Rue Morgue Magazine was regarding his debut feature, My Crepitus/I Never Left The White Room. They classified a style that would evolve over time, some have called it: surrealist psychological retro-gore. Being awarded Best Cinematography and Best Horror Short shockedA Tribute to Sanity to New York International Independent Film Festival screens. The notorious and confrontational August Underground's Mordum was hailed an instant classic. Banned from the public, Grotesque Fantasies is an experimental documentary following Schneider and fiends on their artistic exploits. Combining 80's horror themes with an elaborate film process called Life-O-Vision is Opening the Mind. Continuing to venture back to the way films used to be made, …AND THEN I HELPED is a splatter romp set in 1976. LET'S MAKE A.. HORROR MOVIE combines all learned into one autobiographical experience that blurs the line between celluloid and reality. A cerebral collaboration with Tyler Tharpe (Return in Red, Freak) brings two stories into an exploitation popcorn haven with DOUBLE DOSE OF TERROR!! A man hating clan of women feast towards the 'ultimate' in Manna, a co-creation with producers Manda Manuel and David Bond.
Schneider has also spent the past few years supplying his assets on such notable features as G. Cameron Romero's The Screening, Revenge Is Her Middle Name, Slew Hampshire, Soap Box, Return in Red, Gallery of Fear, Bigfoot at Holler Creek Canyon, Chrome Baby, The Wickeds, Two Front Teeth, House of Honcho, Scarlet Rain and Multo.
A true auteur of award winning disposition, Schneider's distinguishable versatility rooted itself out of necessity and limitation. A bold director, writer, editor, actor, cinematographer, special makeup effects designer, sound designer and experimental musician.

Dr. Kent Brantly's Last Sermon Before Contracting Ebola Reveals God's Call On His Life
Dr. Kent Brantly's condition is improving after being moved to the United States from Liberia, where he contracted the Ebola virus. Before leaving for Liberia, Brantly delivered a powerful sermon, saying that God had a call on his life.
"In October, [my wife] Amber and the kids and I are moving to Monrovia, Liberia, to work as medical missionaries at ELWA Hospital," Brantly told the Southeastern Church of Christ in Indianapolis. "For two years we will live and work and serve among the people who, until the last 10 years of peace, had known nothing but the violence and devastation of war for the previous 20 years."
Brantly added that he had "never been to Liberia" but was going "because God has a call on my life. God did not give us a spirit of timidity," he noted, quoting the Apostle Paul.
Unfortunately, Brantly contracted the Ebola virus while working in Liberia. He arrived in the United States on Saturday for treatment at a hospital in Atlanta, Georgia. Brantly was doing well enough that he was able to walk into the hospital rather than being carried in on a gurney. His family is happy to have him back in the States, where they can see him and speak with him, though they have to remain in a protective area.
"It was a relief to welcome Kent home today," his wife Amber said in a statement. "I spoke with him, and he is glad to be back in the U.S. I am thankful to God for his safe transport and for giving him the strength to walk into the hospital. Please continue praying for Kent and Nancy [Writebol, another American missionary infected with Ebola] and please continue praying for the people of Liberia and those who continue to serve them there."
Already, Brantly "seems [to have] improved from the reports we got earlier," Dr. Tom Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said on Sunday.
Nancy Writebol is expected to be flown to the United States for treatment on Tuesday. She will be flown in the same specially, CDC-outfitted plane that Brantly was flown in, and will receive treatment at the same Atlanta facility, which has one of the best Ebola units in the country. She and husband David will likely both return; David has not left her side since she was infected, and he has been in contact with their pastor in North Carolina.
"She is holding her own," Rev. John Munro said. She is in good spirits, he added.
Writebol reportedly received an experimental drug after Brantly sacrificed his dose so that she could be treated. The drug was intended to treat both Ebola patients, but there was only enough for one dose, so Brantly chose to give it to Writebol. However, the maker of the drug has said that Writebol never received the dosage.
"Our investigational therapy TKM-Ebola has not been given to either of the Samaritan Purse workers or anyone else infected in the current outbreak, and has not been given to anyone outside of our Phase I trials," Tekmira Pharmaceuticals said in a statement.
That means that Writebol's condition has not been affected by the experimental drug. Her husband has said that she is able to walk around a bit, which is a good sign.
"We can't wait to have her back home," Bruce Johnson, president of SIM USA, told NBC News.

Iron (Fe), serum iron, TIBC
The serum iron test measure the amount of iron in your blood. The total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) test looks at how well the iron moves through your body.
Iron is an important mineral that your body needs to stay healthy. Your body uses iron to make hemoglobin, the protein in your red blood cells that carries oxygen throughout your body. If you don't have enough iron, you may not have enough hemoglobin. This condition is called iron deficiency anemia.
Iron in your body is carried, or bound, mainly to a protein made by your liver called transferrin. The TIBC test is based on certain proteins, including transferrin, found in the blood. Your transferrin levels are almost always measured along with iron and TIBC.
You may need these tests if your healthcare provider thinks your iron level is too low or too high. Not having enough iron in your diet is the most common cause of anemia and the most common type of diet deficiency in the U.S. Your healthcare provider may do this test to look at your diet, nutrition, liver, or other conditions that cause iron to be low, such as increased blood loss or pregnancy.
Symptoms of iron deficiency include:
Being tired and feeling weak
Getting frequent infections
Feeling cold all the time
Having swelling in the tongue
Struggling to keep up at school or work
In children, having delayed mental development
Symptoms of too much iron can include:
Feeling tired and weak
Joint pain
Belly pain
What other tests might I have along with these tests?
Iron, TIBC, and transferrin blood tests are almost always done together. Other blood tests that may also be done include measuring your hemoglobin; your percent of red blood cells, or hematocrit; and all the cells in your blood, called a complete blood count.
Test results may vary depending on your age, gender, health history, the method used for the test, and other things. Your test results may not mean you have a problem. Ask your healthcare provider what your test results mean for you.
Normal results of iron testing may be different for men, women, and children. Iron and TIBC are measured in micrograms per deciliter (mcg/dL). Normal results for iron are:
65 to 175 mcg/dL for men
50 to 170 mcg/dL for women
50 to 120 mcg/dL for children
Normal results for TIBC are 250 to 450 mcg/dL for men and women.
Some common conditions that may cause the amount of iron in your blood to be too low include:
Iron deficiency anemia
Other types of anemia
Blood loss over time
Long-standing infections or diseases
Last three months of pregnancy
Some common conditions that may cause the amount of iron in your blood to be too high include:
Conditions that cause red blood cells to die, called hemolytic anemia
Iron or lead poisoning
Iron overload, such as from hemochromatosis
Many blood transfusions
Liver damage
Your healthcare provider will look at your iron level in conjunction with the TIBC, transferrin, and possibly other tests to better understand what the results mean.
The test is done with a blood sample. A needle is used to draw blood from a vein in your arm or hand.
Having a blood test with a needle carries some risks. These include bleeding, infection, bruising, and feeling lightheaded. When the needle pricks your arm or hand, you may feel a slight sting or pain. Afterward, the site may be sore.
Many medicines can affect the results of these blood tests. Some common medicines that may affect your results include alcohol, birth control pills, antibiotics, aspirin, estrogen, and testosterone. Women who are having their menstrual period may have decreased iron.
You may be asked to have these blood tests in the morning after fasting overnight. Normally, iron levels are closest to normal in the morning and get lower as the day goes on. Be sure your healthcare provider knows about all medicines, herbs, vitamins, and supplements you are taking. This includes medicines that don't need a prescription and any illicit drugs you may use.

Shutterstock Portrait Studio: Sabrina Weniger at CreativeMornings/Düsseldorf
For the last three years with Shutterstock, we worked with photographers to capture the spirit of CreativeMornings' attendees in chapters around the world. Together, we've collected over 2,000 portraits.
A good portrait tells the truth about a person in that moment in time—not the whole truth, but close to it. It's an intimate dynamic that requires connection, patience, and acuity of the subject's spirit.
We interviewed each talented photographer to learn to see what they see when they raise the camera.
Meet Sabrina Weniger, freelance portrait photographer and documentarian.
What is it about portraiture that inspires you?
For me the best thing about portrait photography is to meet people, ask questions and get to know new point of views. That is something that inspires me a lot and opens my mind. My images are the results of these communications.
Portraiture is a personal exchange—how do you get your subjects to open up? What do you say or do?
First, I try to make them feel good about themselves and make them feel comfortable. Then, seek chemistry and building a unique connection between the subject and myself. Talking about personal topics are very helpful to getting closer.
At what moment do you know you successfully captured someone's spirit or personality? How do you know?
It's impossible to calculate and describe that very moment. I know I am close, when the person loses some kind of attention to me.
What advice would you give to people just picking up a camera, ready to explore the wonderful art of photography?
Keep on moving.

In our day, Christians are much more apt to be familiar with Yoga and eastern meditative practices than with biblical meditation. While some discerning Christians can utilize the positive benefits of Yoga without becoming involved in unbiblical forms of meditation, few really know how to engage in biblical meditation.
When I researched the subject of biblical meditation several years ago, the best I came up with is some good material by Edmund Clowney (Christian Meditation, Reagent College Publishing) , but I did not find anything that helped me overcome some of the hurdles in beginning a regular practice of biblical meditation. Well, now I have it. The Puritans give me exactly what I need and what you need to know and to engage profitably in the practice of biblical meditation.
The author's goal in writing this book is "to convince God's people of the absolute necessity of personal meditation." His aim is to motivate and to teach people how to do this in a biblical way. He draws heavily on the scriptures and on the "rich spiritual experience of Puritans who were committed to practicing spiritual meditation."
Chapter 1 covers the importance of recovering the habit of biblical meditation. Drawing on the Puritans he says "Divine meditation has a multifaceted value. It provides us spiritual discernment; improves our Bible reading and prayer lives; applies the general truths of the Bible personally and specifically; strengthens our hearts by focusing on spiritual truths; and provides lasting benefit from dwelling on the truths we know." In this and later chapters he adds much detail to these values.
Chapter 2 covers unbiblical forms of meditation. "Modern Christians have neglected the biblical practice of meditation to such an extent that many believe the entire practice is based in a pagan or Far Eastern religious concept. Certainly, when people speak about meditation today, they usually are not referencing the biblical practice. Thus, this chapter will identify and explain the common false notions of meditation."
Chapter 3 defines and examines biblical meditation in the Old Testament, the New Testament and in the Puritans. I counted 42 Puritans in the Bibliography, so this chapter is well documented with a generous number of quotes to clarify the Puritan view.
Chapters 4 and 5 give definition to Occasional and Deliberate Meditation and spell out the benefits, dangers and proper use of each.
Chapter 6 is one of the most useful chapters in the book. As the Puritans were always quite detailed in their examination of things, so too are they in spelling out how to practice meditation. What follows is an outline of chapter 6.
The Best Time of Day for Meditation
The Best Place for Meditation
The Amount of Time Necessary for Meditation
The Importance of Consistency in Meditation
Steps in Beginning Effective Meditation
Praying for the Spirit's Help for Fervency
Choosing a Scriptural Thought by Bible Reading
Questioning, Considering, and Examining Oneself
Concluding with Personal Application, Resolution, and Prayer
Chapter 7 has extended discussions on important occasions for meditation.
Chapter 8 provides needed help in choosing subjects for meditation.
Chapter 9 is a very convincing chapter exploring the reasons why each believer should be regularly meditating upon God, His Word, and His works.
Chapter 10 considers eight benefits and blessings of cultivating a life of meditation.
Chapter 11 identifies the impediments and hindrances to meditation and gives suggestions for overcoming them.
Chapter 12 gets you started in developing the habit of meditation.
In the Conclusion author David Saxton takes a look at how the practice of meditation in the Christian life becomes a joy rather than a burden
The Bibliography is a wonderful resource of primary and secondary Puritan Sources.
One of the strengths of this book is its fair and detailed handling of unbiblical forms of meditation, particularly Roman Catholic Spirituality, mysticism and contemplative prayer. While the following quote is rather long, it is worth reading.
"One further caution should be made regarding a more recent, popular movement within broad evangelical circles called contemplative worship or prayer. Similar to traditional Roman Catholic mysticism, contemplative prayer is an unbiblical form of meditation that seeks a spiritual experience through some kind of existential encounter with God apart from His written revelation. Though not a new danger, many evangelicals have begun to fall prey to the false idea of maintaining spiritual communion with the Lord apart from His ordained means of the Bible and prayer. The contemplative prayer movement seeks to experience God's voice apart from His written Word. This movement is a product of a larger evangelical departure from an absolute conviction in the sufficiency of Scripture. It does not use Scripture alone to address the spiritual needs of the inner person. These various fads of spirituality that minimize Scripture have come and gone over the centuries, but truth remains the same: "O how love I thy law! It is my meditation all the day" (Ps. 119:97) and "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path" (Ps. 119:105). We should heed the counsel of Thomas Manton: "Do not try to pry further than God hath revealed; your thoughts must be still bounded by the word. There is no duty that a fanatic brain is more apt to abuse than meditation…. Do not leave bread and wine and gnaw upon a stone.""
As the publisher says: "With the rich experiential theology of the Puritans, this book lays out a course for enjoying true meditation on God's Word."

The series against sixth-ranked Tennessee almost didn't happen for the Auburn Tigers. First, just getting on campus seemed to be an insurmountable task. The Tigers went through multiple charter buses that kept breaking down on the road to Knoxville. Then, impending weather disrupted the series, forcing the two teams to play game one on Saturday and a double header on Sunday. Even between games two and three, lightening delays pushed the start of the final game later and later in the day. By the time game three began, the Tigers had to be a little fatigued and a lot uncomfortable.
The Vols had their field house and access to showers and clean uniforms between the games, but the Tigers had to spend the down time in the dugout wearing the same uniforms for hours upon hours. The wear and tear of the grind showed in game three as Auburn just didn't have enough left in the tank to play. The third game wasn't quite meaningless, but it was close. In games one and two Auburn dominated the Volunteers to the tune of 10–5 and 3–0, securing a series win.
Along the way, there was a shakeup at the top of the SEC standings. Auburn came into the weekend down the SEC leader board. Alabama was at the top with a record of 7–2 in the conference and was taking on South Carolina. Behind them was Tennessee. Auburn was down the food trough.
By weekend's end, Auburn was on top tied with Alabama. Had Alabama not salvaged game three against the Gamecocks and Auburn not given away its game three, the Tigers would be alone at the top. Still, the series win against the Vols was huge.
However, SEC rankings, especially at the top of the conference, aren't that important. Ten of the nation's Top 25 teams reside in the SEC. NCAA rankings haven't been updated this week, and the last rankings are from on the 25th of last month. It will be interesting to see how Auburn fares in the poll after losing a series to UGA last week at home before taking this one against the Vols.
It was the Snow Show this weekend. Tannon Snow was incredible at the plate for the Tigers in the first two games, willing them to wins. She was 4-for-4 in game one with two homers while scoring an insane SEVEN RBI's. That ties the record held by former Auburn great, Kasey Cooper. It was Snow's second multi-homer game.
Ashlee Swindle earned the win after a lightening-fast leash was pulled on Lexi Handley. The transfer hurler can hit 72 miles an hour with her fastball, but she can also mail a lot of pitches to the backstop. Coach Mickey Dean saw enough after two walks, both of which were followed by wild pitches.
Swindle went the distance though she did …
give up seven hits and three runs, not counting two scores from inherited base runners. Ashlee added two strikeouts as the defense played error-free ball behind her. She is a pitch-to-contact player. She may not get K's and she may give up hits, but as long as the defense is on its game, she will earn a lot of W's.
As good as Swindle was at getting the Vols to hit to Tiger defenders, Chardonnay Harris was just as good in game two. Harris was phenomenal in a shutout win, a program first against Tennessee. She had seven strikeouts and scattered four hits with just one walk. The complete game was the first of her young and promising career.
Snow added another dinger in game two while Kendall Veach joined in with one of her own. Alyssa Rivera earned an RBI the hard way when she scored pinch runner Rachel Cook on a single. The Tigers took a 3–0 win for the series win, which helps avenge the home series loss to Georgia last weekend. It was the first Tiger win in Knoxville since 2011.
Game three was a clunker for the Tigers after having to wait an hour for weather to pass. Swindle was back in the circle for the Tigers, but the defense couldn't back her up. The Volunteer slappers put in a good day's work against the Auburn defense, which simply could not handle Tennessee's speed. Swindle did her best to limit the Vols' power hitters by jamming them inside time and time again. However, the lefty slappers proved tough to get out as they hit multiple balls up the middle, and others simply eluded Tiger defenders.
The pressure on the base paths plus the slappers' crafty hitting forced Auburn's defense, specifically shortstop Taylon Snow, into a lot of bad fielder's choices. Tennessee jumped on Auburn with two scores in the first and never looked back.
Auburn's lone run came on a fine piece of hitting by Alyssa Rivera. She forced the Vols' pitcher into a mistake from a second meatball in consecutive pitches. Rivera missed the first, showed frustration, but caught the next one perfectly, homering for the eighth time this season.
Chardonnay Harris made her second appearance but couldn't stop the Vols from blasting the Tigers 8–1 in the final game of the weekend. Auburn had just two other hits, both of them by pinch hitters Carmyn Greenwood and Makenna Dowel.
Despite the bad series against UGA and the messy game three in Knoxville, Auburn is showing great strides at the plate over last season. Though some of the starters have a long way to go, the top six hitters are hitting above a .300 clip. And Justus Perry has a .500 slugging percentage despite a .276 batting average.
That's not to say that Auburn doesn't have nine great hitters on the roster. The issue is that Auburn's best hitters aren't also Auburn's best fielders. Coach Dean just has to find the perfect combination. The Tigers have hit 55 dingers in the season and are on pace to rival the golden years under Clint Myers.
The Tigers host a South Carolina team fresh off of a massive series win against the Crimson Tide. Games one and two will be on the SEC Network+ while game three will be on ESPNU. The series kicks off Friday at Jane B. Moore at 6:00 PM CDT. See ya there!
