To whom it may concern,
Can a moderator kindly assist by providing a Telkom resolution / complaints e-mail address. I am currently overseas for the next year and I have cancelled my Telkom mobile contract. It was on a month-to-month contract. This was cancelled online and shows that I do not have anymore Telkom products currently. Yet I am still being billed and have been sent an invoice for next months bill already!!
I am currently unable to call the call centre. Can a moderator kindly assist, my cancellation reference number is: 24640652. Cell number is: 0812734995.
This is highly upsetting as I called in multiple times to cancel, it took disdainfully long with multiple people calling me to upgrade. Then when someone called me to confirm cancellation they tried to on-sell to me and when I refused the call was cut (dropped in my opinion). I had to call in again and only received a verbal confirmation that my account has been closed (which has been clearly not as I am still being billed for a service I am not using!)
Please help.

Exactly the same issues i faced over the years with Telkom and still face today. Very dishonest and wicked company and service is pathetically poor.

I ordered a Telkom Wi Fi Router with 20GB per month deal over the telephone. It was delivered a week later. 5 Days after it was delivered it still was not working so I took the device with the original package and sim card to the Telkom Branch in Canal Walk Mall (Shop 76) Cape Town. The agent who assisted me is Shafeq Khan (Agent Name: Khans11).
I returned the original wi fi router and the sim card as it was withing the 7 day period of me receiving it and requested for the contract to be canceled. This cancellation was done by the agent mentioned above: Khans11. I then signed up for a new wi fi router with a 50GB per month deal while I was in this Telkom Branch with Shafeq Khan. He gave me the new contract, the new router and new sim card.
I received an invoice on my e-mail an month later and realized that I am being charged for both contracts. The one I canceled (20GB Deal) as well as the new contract (50GB Deal). I called Telkom Customer care and they told me they had no record of the cancellation of the 20GB contract. I returned back to Canal Walk to speak to Khans11 and he told me he submitted the cancellation but the cancellation department did not do as they were told.
I filled in another cancellation form but we were not able to submit the cancellation because we still needed the SIM ICC-ID number. He promised to get that sorted the next morning. Nothing was done and I had to return to the store 2 days late and insist that the second cancellation process be done while I was in the shop because I did not want to keep leaving before anything was done and then having to drive back 20km to the branch because no progress was being made.
The cancellation was finally submitted and I received the case number: 26656845. No correspondence has been given to me since 20 January. In my opinion, Shafeq Khan had no interest in performing the cancellation of my original 20GB Deal and just wanted to get commission for signing me up on a new 50GB Deal.

A Telkom agent called and lied about telkom contract. i called and asked to cancel within 5 days. 2 years later i was still billed. then i was contated by Fourie lawyers and i gave evidence that i cancelled the contract, they send me confirmation that i owe R0.00. to my surprise Telkom still listing me as a bad payer and i am unable to buy on credit.

What Learning is Like in 2016: Hot Trends in Tech
Published on June 23, 2016 by arothstein
Technology is everywhere in our lives in 2016, and just like it's transforming our lives in other ways, it's changing the way we learn and study. Here are a few ways that technology is transforming learning today, both inside and outside of the classroom:
- The Cloud: Platforms like Google Docs and Google Hangouts are changing the way that students can study, write papers, and collaborate on group work. Now, it's possible to write a study outline with your classmates and watch as they edit it in real-time. Google Hangouts is the hot new place to hold a study session. Whether or not you're an online learner, collaborating online can be a great way to facilitate group collaboration. Storing data on cloud services also means that we're no longer at the mercy of our hard drives for preserving our hard work, and we can work on the same paper at the computer lab at school and on our home devices with much more ease than we could in the past.
- E-books: With more and more textbooks being available as e-books, it's changing the way that we study and learn. E-books often come with engaging, interactive study materials that replace pencil-and-paper worksheets. And soon, selling back books will become a thing of the past – instead, you can rent an e-book for the semester and it will expire when the semester is through. However, reading e-books instead of books on paper comes with new methods of taking notes, highlighting, and marking off important sections, changing the way that we organize and remember information.
- Wearable tech: Nowadays, lots of students are tracking their health and fitness with the aid of wearable tech devices like the Fitbit. For students in the health and exercise science fields, this can have big implications, as data is easier than ever to collect and evaluate. For other students, having a small device on their wrist that can keep track of a daily schedule can transform time management. As wearable tech continues to develop and become more affordable, who knows how else it'll transform the way we learn?
- 3D Printing: Although 3-D Printing is in many ways still becoming affordable and accessible, some colleges are offering 'makerspaces' where 3D printing technology is made available for students to use. The availability of this technology to students can transform design and engineering classes, making what was once simply theoretical now a hands-on experience.
- Online education: As the platforms for online courses become more sophisticated, the possibilities for online education grow. More and more students are turning to online degree programs for their flexibility and affordability, as well as the opportunity to join classmates from around the world in a single classroom.
If you're interested in taking the leap and enrolling in an online degree, Broadview has a number of online programs that might be right for you. Request more information today!

Gov. John Hickenlooper set a good goal for Colorado Tuesday: reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions by 26 percent by 2025, compared to 2005 levels, and also cut power plant carbon emissions by 35 percent by 2030, compared to emissions levels in 2012.
Hickenlooper's executive order sends a strong message that Colorado believes in the science that tells us the increase in greenhouse gases trapped in our atmosphere is contributing to rising temperatures.
Such a message didn't seem as crucial in August, when we were critical of a leaked draft of a very similar executive order. Back then, we urged Hickenlooper to postpone his order and work with lawmakers to set the same goals legislatively.
Much has changed in the last year.
President Donald Trump sent the opposite message to the world in June when he withdrew from goals set by world leaders in the Paris climate agreement. Trump's message that America isn't concerned about the buildup of heat-trapping gases in our atmosphere is harmful to efforts to preserve our environment for future generations.
Hickenlooper is sending the better message: We will work hand in hand with Coloradans as we continue this tough transition away from fossil fuels and toward more sustainable — albeit still less reliable and more expensive — energy sources.
"Now is the time to accelerate the transition to a clean energy economy while maintaining Colorado's position as one of the lowest energy cost states in the nation," Hickenlooper said in his executive order.
That's a bold expectation. We'd be shocked if Colorado were able to shutter a meaningful number of the coal plants that The Denver Post's Bruce Finley reported provide more than 55 percent of the state's energy without causing energy costs to increase. But there's always a cost to doing the right thing and the challenge will be keeping those increases manageable for Coloradans and the industry.
Hickenlooper's executive order is just a suggestion as opposed to the law put in place in 2004 mandating electricity providers move a portion of their portfolio to renewable energy. In 2010 lawmakers increased the mandate for investor-owned utilities to 30 percent by 2020, and in 2013 co-operative utilities were required to hit 20 percent.
Sen. Ray Scott, R-Grand Junction, criticized the governor's executive order saying it takes the state "backwards" because it circumvents lawmakers. We can only assume Scott was referring to Republicans in power in the state Senate who would likely block anything that tried to increase the speed at which the state moves away from fossil fuels. Republicans in the Senate claimed the sky would fall in 2013 when Democrats pushed through the new standards for co-op utilities.
But if we are wrong and Scott is genuinely interested in being part of the solution, then Hickenlooper's executive order sets a good blueprint for legislators to consider next session.
This summer Scott, and other energy-minded state lawmakers should ask Colorado's utilities what it would take to comply with the governor's goals.
Xcel Energy says it's on pace to hit the 30 percent renewable energy standard by 2020 and is at about 20 percent right now. In 2016 Excel reported it had reduced emissions by 34 percent since 2005, and projected hitting a 45 percent reduction by 2021 — but even as it hits that goal it will rely on 41 percent coal-fired power plants.
There's a big difference between Xcel's projection and Hickenlooper's ask however, as Hickenlooper sets the beginning point in 2012 — a date where Xcel and other companies had already begun significantly reducing carbon emissions.
While Trump is in office the onus of reducing emissions in a meaningful way has fallen on states, and we're glad Hickenlooper and other cities and states are picking up the mantle so that the nation might not slide too far during the next four years dominated by climate-change deniers in Washington.
We hope Republicans in Colorado follow his lead and not the president's harmful repudiation of science, fact and international agreement.

I'm no mind reader, but I know what you're thinking. "Gosh, he's a little early with this snowy doom and gloom, isn't he?" Looking outside, that may well be the case, but taking a look at the calendar, I couldn't help but notice that the end of October is upon us, and the uncertainty of November is indeed about to usher us into much shorter days and colder temperatures.
We've arrived at that time of year when most recreational cyclists have noticed the increasing nakedness of the trees on their lawns and diminishing color in their gardens and have set about putting their outdoor spaces to bed. Bicycles are given one last wipe down, tires are inflated as a precaution, and the machines are retired to the vinyl covered storage hooks from whence they came. Winter training might look like this:
That's all well and good. There are days when I wouldn't mind cocooning in front of that flat screen either. There are, however, alternatives to hiding away with remote in hand and Doritos on lap.
Here at the shop, we've noticed that many recreational cyclists are looking to keep moving throughout the winter months. They've seen the gains in physical conditioning that a summer of cycling has brought about and aren't too keen to have it all taken away through idleness. Apart from traditional activities such as snowshoeing or cross country skiing, there are a few other ways to keep active during the colder months ahead.
We could make an addition to that cozy room above by way of a stationary trainer. You've no doubt seen these or know someone who uses one. For the uninitiated, these indoor training stands are designed to make use of your bicycle as an exercise machine. There are several types available, the most common being either magnetic, fluid, or centrifugal in nature. They are relatively affordable when compared to the price of a purpose built exercise bike and the nicest feature of all is that using one actually FEELS like riding a bicycle because you ARE riding a bicycle. They are also portable and can be folded up and easily stored away if limitation of space is an issue.
Many of the more experienced cyclists actually enjoy riding outside in the colder temperatures and refuse to see snow as a deterrent. There are several ways to safely ride during the winter months. One time honored method is to build what is commonly known as a beater bike. An old mountain bike is absolutely ideal for this purpose. Adding a pair of fenders makes riding in wetter conditions quite comfortable. The key to winter riding is to be sure to install a good head and tail light as well as the consideration of extra reflectors and reflective decals.Many older vintage road bikes can be fitted with modern cyclocross tires, which have a more aggressive tread to make them more suitable for snowy conditions. Incidentally, these bikes are perfect for use on an indoor trainer.
Finally, we have a newer way to conquer colder weather riding. Fat tired bikes made an appearance quite some time ago but have become more readily available over the past few years. These year round mountain bikes have large tires that roll over and through any terrain regardless of the weather. The benefits of using a fatbike are many, the main one being increased safety due to a significantly greater amount of traction and control. The ability to easily ride off trail adds to the adventure. Tires are available in three, four and five inch widths to suit varying grip requirements, commonly referred to as "float". Once considered to be fairly expensive, the price of a decent fatbike has become quite affordable.
As the calendar edges ever closer to the end of the year and the chilly days ahead, the general consensus may very well be that the cycling season is over. While Doritos and a television remote may be an attractive reward for a season well done, the best course of action may just be to keep calm and cycle on.

you know what they say about the green ones
Mars is getting in on the twitter action, giving the marketing potential a go with its character @mrsgreen. The old saw went the green ones make you horny, right? Well to Mars' credit, it is selling exclusively green packs of M&Ms for the upcoming Valentine's Day holiday.
I noticed @mrsgreen about three days ago (she's front and center on the twitter 'featured' window on public timeline) and to date she has 110 followers. I like @mrsgreen; there's nothing deceptive or black hatty about her presence on twitter. Good clean fun. She won't be the last anthropomorphic foodstuff we see on twitter this year, betcha.

|Please find our latest Press Release about Book Aid Plan being recognized at the Summit for Global Citizen Diplomacy.
Do not hesitate to ask me any question about Darien Book Aid I will be glad to answer you. If you would like to plan an interview with Rick Littlefield, our President, call me:
917 528 1854.
Geraldine Trippitelli
Darien Book Aid PR representative
For Immediate Release For Further Information
December 2, 2010 Geraldine Trippitelli
DATE: Mid-November 2010
PLACE: Fairfield County, Connecticut
WHAT: Rick Littlefield, President of Book Aid and Barbara Toole, Book Aid volunteer, are back from three days in Washington D.C. They attended, on behalf of the non-profit organization the mid-November U.S. Summit and Initiative for Global Citizen Diplomacy.
At that meeting of more than four hundred citizen diplomats, Book Aid received Special Recognition as a legacy organization that helped launch the entire movement of U.S. Citizen engagement in international relations a half century ago. Mrs. Gordon Lamont, founder and honorary Chairman of Darien Book Aid Plan, attended the first Summit meeting in 1956 at the request of President Eisenhower.
The purpose of this 2010 Summit meeting was to "revive the role of Citizen Diplomat as a critical component of our country's engagement with the rest of the world,--with the goal to double the number of Americans engaged in international volunteer activities at home and abroad to one hundred and twenty million by 2020."
Experts in international affairs active in the arts, education, business, sports, youth
service, global health, travel and faith-based programs presented round-table reports, plenary sessions and task force reports on Community-based organizations (such as Book Aid Plan). Rick Littlefield reports a profound admiration for the many unsung American citizen diplomats selflessly furthering the cause of U.S. international friendship.
Azar Nafisi, best-selling author of Reading Lolita in Tehran, stated that Iranians who opposed the regime opposed it because of the books they read by authors like Nabokov. How rewarding to hear for Book Aid which sends books to remote places. The organization's goal is indeed "to build a foundation of peace, understanding and friendship through the free distribution of books worldwide".
Book Aid's President came away from the Summit meeting with a renewed sense of the vital role Book Aid Plan has played in U.S. diplomacy the past sixty years, and continues to play. He said " The special recognition given to Book Aid at this inspiring Summit meeting was a tribute to the citizens of Darien and surrounding towns who support Book Aid's mission with their time, energy, thought and financial support".

Rick Littlefield, President of Book Aid Plan attended the Summit and Initiative for Global Citizen Diplomacy in Washington, D.C. in November. The purpose of this meeting was to revive the role of citizen diplomat as a critical component of America's engagement with the rest of the world and to inspire more people to volunteer.
Over 400 experts in international affairs that work in the arts, education, business, sports, youth service, global health, travel and faith-based programs presented round-table reports, plenary sessions and task force reports on community-based organizations and how they extend the reach of American diplomacy.
President Eisenhower convened fifty leaders for the first summit in 1956. Mrs. Gordon Lamont, founder of Darien Book Aid Plan, attended the first summit at the request of President Eisenhower.
At this 2010 Summit Book Aid Plan received special recognition as an organization that helped launch the citizen diplomacy movement relations.
Littlefield reported admiration for the many American citizen diplomats who practice international diplomacy. One example was an American dentist who single-handedly established a dental clinic and dental school in Afghanistan. The special recognition given Book Aid at the summit meeting was a tribute to the local Book Aid supporters who have helped Book Aid send books worldwide since 1949.

In a Better World
In a better world, In a Better World would not have to win the foreign film Oscar (which it did, for 2010) to get serious American attention. This is the kind of humane, teaching, slightly preaching movie that tends to take that prize. It is also better than those adjectives.
The evident subject of this Danish film is bullying. After viewing, you can have a PC talk about bullying. Or you can linger in the more-complicated emotions stirred by good acting and direction, here dealing with the mystery of human violence as an engine of ego and anguish. Another theme is how children not only suffer for the sins (faults, if you prefer) of the adults, they generate their own agenda of pain and payback.
The movie's obvious but not plaster hero is Anton, a Swedish doctor for the very poor at an African refugee camp, acted by Mikael Persbrandt as a brave but fallible idealist. His estranged wife lives in Denmark with their son Elias. Sometimes Anton flies back, exhausted from healing people who live in dust-blown tents and are terrorized by a grotesque gangster. He is needled with guilt by his resentful wife. But Africa has toughened him, and he gives a lesson in nonviolence to Elias, a gentle kid who is being tormented by a school bully.
Another boy, Christian, comes to Elias's defense. The spine of the story is the bond of the teens, one a born leader despite his small stature, the other an awed but uneasy disciple. True to youth, the kids live in their own world, surrounded by adult dramas they barely understand. Markus Rygaard portrays Elias as vulnerable but not a wimp. William J. Nielsen as Christian, who blames his father for his mother's death by cancer, is amazingly good without a lot of dialogue. He achieves what may be the most sullen, miserable rage packed into a young face since Donald Thompson, the orphan in the widely forgotten 1948 classic The Quiet One.
Susanne Bier (After the Wedding, Things We Lost in the Fire) directed Ander Thomas Jensen's script with tact and assurance. For my taste, the story is too tightly laced as binary lessons: Africa/Denmark, adults/kids, gun bullies/fist bullies, male physical violence/female emotional violence. The title is a soft sell to American audiences; in Danish it is Hævnen (Avenger). Yet the story is strong, scene by scene, and its moments of painful validity go beyond the horrors in Africa.
There are no dull scenes. Beautifully photographed without promenading pictorial values, In a Better World is mainly about how life is not about quick, simple lessons. To call it a tract about bullying is like calling the Book of Job a checklist of complaints.
Less than two months after Liam Neeson emerged from a coma to run around Berlin in the frantic Unknown, Saoirse Ronan comes out of a coma-like, rural life to run around Berlin in the frantic and rather hallucinatory Hanna. When Hanna's father Erik (Eric Bana) joins in, it's as if they are in a relay race to catch up with Berlin's inexhaustible Franka Potente in Run Lola Run. Even if you share the rush, you probably won't feel the grip of a viable story.
Directing well below his storytelling level of Atonement and Pride and Prejudice, Joe Wright must have also kept the writers on a fast track, panting to find something beyond the plot's adrenalized action. The result is like merging Funeral in Berlin and Alice in Wonderland, with added grist from superhero yarns. Erik is a rogue CIA agent who left the grid of deadly intrigue (one victim: his wife) to raise Hanna near the Arctic Circle in Finland. With stern discipline, he stuffs her pretty head with facts, languages, and the skills of martial arts and primeval hunting — the movie's first and worst emotional wallop is the prolonged dying of a beautiful reindeer.
At 16, Hanna heads for civilization. Let the games begin! For some vague reason, she must signal her emergence to her father's nemesis, the frigidly brutal agent Marissa. As if fulfilling a childhood dream to become a Bond villain, Cate Blanchett turns Marissa into a mask of insane fanaticism, while speaking in the syrupy drawl of a Tallulah Bankhead impersonator (Tallulah lives on YouTube). Marissa's inner wound is never having been a mother, but that doesn't curtail her determination to kill Hanna.
Marissa is the Wicked Witch and Hanna is Dorothy, or Alice, or maybe Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds on a wild high. She speeds through her cracked, mirror-glass world of street musicians, thugs, camels, junkies, and Gypsies performing flamenco. After a reference to creepy medical experiments, Berlin seems haunted by old Nazi vibes. Through it all, Ronan remains about as dazed as her tragic teen in The Lovely Bones, her pale, angelic, barely expressive face reflecting this Mad Hatter world spun from depleted, generic ideas.
The film is fancy, stylized pulp for viewers with a limited sense of what has been done before. And for girls who will identify with Hanna's post-pubertal adventures, her kick-ass bravura, her radiantly unsullied purity. Hanna often feels like a twisted sister of the Kubrick/Spielberg fantasy A.I. Artificial Intelligence, with comparable reliance on surreal surprises and zapping visuals. Also, a similar smugness about inviting us to be privileged voyeurs, insiders of The Vision. The death of the noble stag is haunting, but the rest is only celluloid in motion, running in circles of cliché.
Bill Cunningham New York
Of the many stories in the Naked City, Bill Cunningham's is not naked. No, his story is about clothes and his constant hope to "see something marvelous, exotic — a bird of paradise." At 82, Bill is quite a rare bird himself, with New York's best raptor gaze apart from Pale Male, the famous Central Park hawk. For decades, he has camera-clicked people whose bold and beautiful attire catches his attention.
The best shots appear in his On the Street column in the Times, and he has also done a social column that goes beyond name-dropping. Bill was a cheek-pecking chum of the late Brooke Astor, and he knows all the trendsetters, models, and dandies such as Tom Wolfe and Patrick McDonald. Those men, along with Vogue-queen Anna Wintour and many other fans of Bill, are interviewed in Richard Press's documentary. Cunningham claims no special interest in celebrities.
He is an ascetic of the stylish life. He bicycles around town (28 bikes have been stolen), eats cheaply, and beds down in a little apartment full of stuffed filing cabinets. The film's pathos is that he and other tenants were forced out of the classic artists' digs above Carnegie Hall, since rehabbed for tenants with Real Money. Bill goes to Paris for couture shows, we assume on the paper's dime (the film got key Times support, and the publisher appears in it).
"It's not work," says the slightly hunched but chipper Bill of his tireless calling. "It's fun." That fun began for the military veteran and innovative milliner at a '60s "be-in" in Central Park. He makes no artistic claims and is obsessive and very private (there is a veiled nod to devout Catholicism and probable gayness). This documentary lacks the exploring depth of Bennett Miller's The Cruise, about Manhattan street visionary Timothy "Speed" Levitch, but it is a savvy portrait of a happy man. See it, but do not go badly dressed.

The nationwide Classic Hits radio stations, comprising WSFM101.7, 4KQ693 and GOLD104.3, are the stations of choice for real people looking for real music from the 1960's - 1990's.
A brand overhaul was required to bring the family of stations all under the one banner with an updated image that would appeal to the broad audience skew of 25-55yrs old with 60-40% male bias.
A new brand strategy was developed that focused on the music authenticity and sense of nostalgia for which the brand was known for. We then created a strong visual presence: an easily recognisable icon inspired by the guitar plectrum and supporting graphic language. A gold and black colourway further reaffirmed a sense of connection with the good times from the past.
The ResultsWe redefined the branding hierarchy from a frequency-focus to a brand-focus. It now performs consistently well in ratings and the new brand identity and accompanying collateral has given Australian Radio Network (ARN) a brand with accumulating credibility and equity, increasing its visibility and cut-through in the marketplace.

Having grown up in NYC, one of the sweetest memories I have is being treated to an egg cream at the soda fountain/luncheonette/corner candy store in my neighborhood. We'd head there after mass to pick up the newspaper and get egg creams.
When I moved to California in the mid 1990s, I tried to find a soda fountain/luncheonette/corner candy store that could make an egg cream. Since the soda fountain/luncheonette/corner candy store is, for the most part, from a bygone era, I'd ask for them at Baskin Robbins. What I got were blank stares. I think the word 'egg' in a drink was confusing. Finally, I figured out if you described it as an ice cream soda without the ice cream they could make it for you, but they'd charge for the ice cream that didn't get added to the soda.
I've just added egg creams to the drinks menu at my cookie and coffee shop on Bainbridge Island. The sign on our front counter is generating a lot of questions about what an egg cream is. I'm happily explaining and introducing the egg cream to the people of Bainbridge Island unfamiliar with this liquid dessert. Everyone that has tried one has loved it with the most common feedback being how 'refreshing' it tastes.

Big Bird is an 8'2" yellow bird who lives on Sesame Street. Since Sesame Street premiered in 1969, Big Bird has entertained millions of pre-school children and their parents with his wide-eyed wondering at the world. Big Bird is also a bird who makes friends easily.
The world-famous bird has been a central character on Sesame Street for the program's run, debuting in the first episode. The big yellow bird can roller skate, ice skate, dance, sing, write poetry, draw and even ride a unicycle — pretty talented for a character described in the TV show's writer's guide as a 6-year-old. But despite this wide array of talents, he's prone to frequent misunderstandings, like thinking that the alphabet is one long word.
Big Bird lives in a large nest behind 123 Sesame Street and next to Oscar's trash can, and he has a teddy bear named Radar.
Big Bird helps children feel all right about not knowing everything because he himself does not know everything, and encourages them to inquire: a common Big Bird phrase in recent years has been "Asking questions is a good way of finding things out!" He also teaches other life, alphabet, and numerical lessons: "I guess it's better to be who you are. Turns out people like you best that way, anyway."[1]
For many years his best friend Mr. Snuffleupagus (who Big Bird calls Snuffy) was deemed as imaginary by the adults on Sesame Street. Every time Snuffy would visit, he would coincidentally leave just before the adults arrived. Despite not being believed by the adults, Big Bird continued to assert that Snuffy was real. In the early 1980s, a string of high-profile child sexual abuse cases caused Sesame Workshop (then Children's Television Workshop) to eliminate this running gag, fearing that children would take to heart the message that, if adults don't believe something out of the ordinary even when they are telling the truth, they'd be just as well off to remain silent.
Big Bird's closest human friendship, however, for many years was with storekeeper Mr. Hooper, who made his birdseed milkshakes. Big Bird's inability to say the storekeeper's name correctly (most often rendered as "Mr. Looper") was a source of frustration, but they remained close. Big Bird took center stage on Sesame Street in the early 1980s, when the show dealt with the death of Mr. Hooper (necessitated by the death of Will Lee, the actor who played the role). Big Bird got confused when he tried to go into Hooper's Store to give Mr. Hooper his drawing Big Bird made of and for him. The adults, including Maria, David, Bob, Susan, Gordon, Olivia and Luis tell Big Bird that Mr. Hooper is not coming back because he's dead, and when people die, they don't come back. ("Ever?" "No, never") Big Bird's realization that Mr. Hooper wasn't just gone temporarily, and Big Bird's acceptance of Mr. Hooper's death, have been hailed as a milestone in children's programming.
Big Bird starred on the big screen in the 1985 film Follow That Bird, in which he is sent by Miss Finch, a bird social worker, to live with a foster family of Dodos. He soon runs away from his new home to get back to Sesame Street and he is kidnapped and dyed baby blue by two ratty carnival-owners. He also had a role in the feature film The Adventures of Elmo in Grouchland and starred in the feature-length specials Big Bird in China and Big Bird in Japan.
Big Bird also appeared in cameo roles in the films The Muppet Movie and The Muppets Take Manhattan and the television special A Muppet Family Christmas, and as a guest on The Muppet Show episode 318, plus a variety of outside TV appearances.
Big Bird's species
Big Bird's precise species is unknown, and over the years, there have been varying explanations for his unusual size and appearance:
- When he sees a photograph of himself taken by Olivia in Episode 0950, Big Bird says, "Boy, that is the nicest looking oriole I've ever seen." He immediately says he was kidding and sets the record straight, "I'm not an oriole."
- During a 1976 appearance on Hollywood Squares, host Peter Marshall asked, "What kind of a bird are you, by the way?" Big Bird's responds: "I'm a lark."[2]
- When Big Bird is missing in the 1978 special Christmas Eve on Sesame Street, Oscar the Grouch reassures Maria, jokingly reminding her that Big Bird is "part homing pigeon."
- In a 1981 episode of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood, King Friday XIII asked Big Bird if he's related to the cassowary. Big Bird replied, "actually, I'm a golden condor."[3]
- In the 1987 special A Muppet Family Christmas, Ma Bear refers to Big Bird as "the huge canary"; The Swedish Chef, seeing him as an upgrade from the turkey, calls him "gobbla gobbla humungo."
- The 1998 book Sesame Street Unpaved says that Big Bird's scientific name is "Bigus canarius."[4]
- In the 2004 direct-to-video special A Celebration of Me, Grover, Big Bird says, "I wish I could fly like Super Grover. But my Grandpa was an emu bird. They can't fly. But they can run! Every fall, Grandpa ran south for the winter."
- Oscar the Grouch sometimes refers to Big Bird as a "turkey" — an insult rather than a reflection of Big Bird's species. However, this does help Big Bird hitch a ride on a turkey truck in the 1985 film Follow That Bird; he talks his way onto the truck by claiming that "my friend Oscar always says that I'm a big turkey!" In a 2009 interview with TV Guide, Big Bird said that Oscar is "a little grouchy. He calls me a turkey. I'm not a turkey; I'm a lark."[5]
- In the Sesame Street Live production Everyone Makes Music, after Big Bird sings "Rockin' Robin," Baby Bear remarks that Big Bird is one rockin' robin, and Big Bird remarks, "Actually I'm a canary."
- In a 2009 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live when host Jimmy Kimmel asks him if he has ever "googled" Big Bird replies: "Uh, no but I have an uncle turkey who gobbles."
- Big Bird fielded the question, sampled from a Google search, in a 2017 video for Wired. He answers, "I've been told that I'm a lark, um, Oscar says that I'm part homing pigeon. But, I think I'm a 'bigus canarius.' Look it up."
Big Bird's family
Big Bird lives alone on Sesame Street, essentially adopted by the general neighborhood, with the adults often acting as stand-in parents (in particular, Susan, Gordon and Maria). In Sesame Street Home Video Visits the Hospital, when the hospital receptionist asks if Maria is Big Bird's mother, she replies, "Not exactly... kind of... yes." In Episode 4618, during the song "You're the Mom for Me," Big Bird gives a bouquet of paper flowers to Nina, whom he considers a surrogate mom.
As a baby, Big Bird was raised by his Granny Bird and his aunt, Nani Bird. As he became more self-reliant, Big Bird moved out on his own, to his nest on Sesame Street. Granny Bird remains a part of his life, and he often visits her in the books.[6] When Big Bird's nest was destroyed in a hurricane in 2001, Big Bird called Granny for advice about building a new nest.[7]
There is also scattered evidence of other relations. In Episode 0302, Big Bird receives a coat from his mommy in the mail, and he babysits for his sister's egg in Episode 0345. In a sketch from Episode 1260, he claims his sister is named Esmerelda. He also mentions a mother, father, and sister in the song "Tall Enough." It's unclear why Big Bird was raised apart from his nuclear family.
Other relatives, in addition to the aformentioned emu grandpa (A Celebration of Grover) and turkey uncle (Jimmy Kimmel Live) include the following:
- Uncle Slim, a cowbird from Wyoming, seen in a 1981 episode
- Herman Bird, an identical cousin from the country, who visits in a 1975 episode
- Monroe, a cousin mentioned in a 1972 episode
- Bartholomew Bird, a poor cousin pictured in The Sesame Street Dictionary
- Auntie Maureen, Big Bird's aunt who lives on the loop in Chicago and looks exactly like her nephew except that she has blue eyes. Big Bird mentions her in episode 1576.
- Floyd, a cousin of Big Bird's who lives in Los Angeles and is a surfer. He looks like his New York cousin, only purple. Also made mention of in episode 1576.
- Uncle Ned, Big Bird sees a chicken mask that he says looks a little like his uncle.[8]
- Cousins Bunscombe Bird (a baker), Bertha Bird (a police officer), Bagshot Bird (a fire chief), and Bathsheba Bird (a doctor), all pictured in the story "Big Bird Visits His Cousin" in The Sesame Street Library Volume 3
- Cousin Bubba, according to the Elmo's World episode "Penguins," lives at the South Pole. A scarf his Granny Bird knitted for Bubba is shown draped on a penguin.
- Cousin Bernie; a seagull, whom he has fish with every time they visit, as mentioned in Big Bird in Japan
- Big Bird's cousin Robin, mentioned and seen in the song "Spring is Here."
- One of his cousins, mentioned in episode 3336, is a roadrunner.
- Big Bird claims to have a tinikling (which is actually a dance form) for a cousin in a season 28 episode.
Additionally, the birds from several international co-productions have been designated as cousins of Big Bird:
- Poupas -- Rua Sésamo, Portugal
Although Big Bird does know his family, in the book Big Bird's Bedtime Story, Luis tells Big Bird's back story, stating that a large egg was delivered to Hooper's Store one day, and the various residents of Sesame Street chose to build a nest for it and took care of it until it hatched. However, the story is probably not considered canon because it features a few characters who were not around when the series began (such as David and Luis).
Big Bird's age
The character was originally conceived as a kind of a yokel. It took most of the show's first season, but the writers and performers soon came to see Big Bird not as the "village idiot," but as a curious child. Spinney described him as "He was the too-big kid, much as I had been the too-little kid when I was his age. I suggested that we think of him as a child first learning to read and learning the alphabet, like our audience. That made him about 4½."[9]
As Sesame Street's core audience has gotten younger, Big Bird has aged. "He's about 6," Spinney says, "arrested at 6."[9]
For years Big Bird's age has been frozen at a particular point — he's six years old in the 1985 film Follow That Bird, and still six in the 1989 special Sesame Street: 20 and Still Counting. Big Bird celebrated his sixth birthday (again) in the 1991 PBS pledge drive special Big Bird's Birthday or Let Me Eat Cake.
"They realized that Big Bird isn't the village idiot - he a child, with a wide-eyed view of the world. For a long time, we played him at age 4. Now we see him as 6½ - and there he stays."
Big Bird's birthday is March 20th.
Performing Big Bird
The Big Bird performer is completely enclosed within the costume and extends his right hand over his head to operate the head and neck of the puppet. The Muppeteer's left-hand serves as the Bird's left hand, while the right hand is stuffed and hangs loosely from a fishing line that runs through a loop under the neck and attaches to the wrist of the left hand. Occasionally, a second puppeteer operates the right hand in scenes where Big Bird moves both of his hands or holds a prop.
When Caroll Spinney has performed Big Bird on-location and could not get a video feed on his television monitor, a hole has been made in the bird suit to give Spinney the ability to see out in front of him. On these occasions, Big Bird wears a necktie at all times to hide the hole. Don't Eat the Pictures, Big Bird in China and Big Bird in Japan are all examples of this.
As Spinney has aged, new performers have been trained to play Big Bird. For over 20 years, Matt Vogel was Spinney's primary understudy, doubling as Big Bird for live appearances and in occasional Sesame Street segments. Vogel has sometimes puppeteered Big Bird to Spinney's voice, and other times performed the voice himself, most prominently in the show's Journey to Ernie segments. By 2015, Spinney had stopped puppeteering Big Bird due to physical setbacks, but he continued to provide the voice for seasons 46 and 47 while Vogel puppeteered the bird on-set. Vogel continued to perform and voice Big Bird in other appearances and, with Spinney's retirement in 2018, officially became his successor. See also Caroll Spinney character transitions.
Other Big Bird puppeteers over the years have included Rick Lyon for the opening theme song of the show's 20th, 25th, 30th and 33rd seasons,[10][11] Noel MacNeal for several Macy's Parades and a 2015 appearance on The Tonight Show, and Peter Linz for the "Number of the Day" song and Shakespeare in the Park.[12]
Caroll Spinney was sick during the taping of a few first season episodes, so Daniel Seagren performed Big Bird in those episodes.[13] He also performed Big Bird when he appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show in 1969, and in a number of Sesame Street Cast Tours in 1970. Jim Henson, who designed Big Bird, proved to be a possible candidate to perform the bird, as he was slender and over six feet tall. But Kermit Love, who built the costume, didn't think that he walked like a bird is supposed to walk.[14] Henson then offered the part to Frank Oz, but since Oz hated performing full-body characters, he turned down the job.[15]
For years, Caroll Spinney had a policy of refusing to pose for photographs in half of the bird suit. He later explained why in an interview for The New Yorker:
"Look magazine had an article on us in 1970. Big Bird was built a little differently then: He was strapped on me, and you couldn't easily get out without an assistant reaching underneath and unbuckling things—now it slips right off, it's much better. So I couldn't get out. But you had to breathe after a while, so I was able to stick my head out between the body and the head, and they had a photo of me sticking my head out. And Jim Henson said, "Don't let that ever happen again. You're either bird or you, but no in between."[16]"
- Big Bird's feathers are white turkey feathers, dyed yellow. There are approximately 4,000 feathers on the puppet.[17] (According to the Count, he has over 5,961 feathers--he counted them himself.)[18] According to Muppet wrangler Michelle Hickey, Big Bird's feathers are "hand-glued and backed with a ribbon that is hand-stitched on." His feathers are also rated from A to D, with only A and B rated feathers making up the puppet. Occasionally C rated feathers are used towards the bottom of the puppet. Hickey also states that the feathers are replaced every two weeks, or after the Muppet has been to an event.[19]
- Jim Henson had originally planned on having the performer inside Big Bird perform the character by wearing the suit backwards so that Big Bird can bend his knees backwards like a real bird.[20]
- Big Bird sang "Bein' Green" in honor of Jim Henson (and Kermit) during Jim Henson's Memorial Service. During the song, he was close to tears. At the song's end, he looked up to the heavens and said, voice breaking, "Thank you, Kermit."[21]
- Big Bird made a special guest appearance on an episode of Deal or No Deal, to help contestant Lamar Wilson overcome his childhood fear of the bird.
- Sesame Workshop included a "Muppetbook" section of Muppet bios in the digital press kit for 40th season of Sesame Street (posted on Sesameworkshop.org. On his profile, Big Bird listed chicken soup as one of his pet peeves.
- There were plans to have Big Bird fly on the Space Shuttle Challenger (specifically, on the exact same flight that ultimately ended with the destruction of the Challenger), but the sheer size of the puppet prevented these plans from reaching fruition. Instead, there was a plan to feature Big Bird's teddy bear Radar to fly on the Challenger, and Radar was even included on the original mission plan, but the plan was scrapped in favor of having teacher Christa McAuliffe fly on the ill-fated mission.[22]
- According to a physical examination Big Bird receives in Episode 1339, he weighs 300 pounds. Later, in Episode 1606, he weighs himself and finds he's 280 pounds.
Awards & Honors
- Big Bird received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1994.
- Big Bird was featured on a US postage stamp in 1999 and on postage stamps in Fiji, Kiribati, the Cayman Islands, and Samoa in 2000.

FLUX by belew™ - never the same twice 4+
- $9.99
- Offers In-App Purchases
***WEBBY Awards honoree - music | visual design. FWA winner. Audiobus compatible.***
Get ready for a new & exciting way to experience music, brought to you by acclaimed musician Adrian Belew. FLUX by belew™ is an ever-changing variety of new tracks, sounds, and visual art that comes at you in quick, surprising pieces. You get exposed to a lot of interesting content quickly, and every listen is a new, unique experience that will never happen the same way again for you or anyone else.
The song forms themselves are short and varied, with longer tracks chopped up so you only hear a portion. Songs even appear in multiple versions, with different lyrics and instrumentation. There are hundreds of these songs, pieces of music, and sonic "snippets", along with engaging visuals randomly changing with the music.
These tracks never play in the same order, though it is not entirely random. The artist controls the probability of which tracks are played, so new tracks may appear, others may go away, and rarities may only be heard once and a while. All this can be changed at any time, ensuring that FLUX never plays the same way twice.
Songs do repeat over time, but you also have the option to hear a track whenever you want just by pressing the "favorite" button, and it will added to your own custom playlist. You can also see a history of what you've just heard.
FLUX by belew™ also includes pictures, lyrics, studio notes, backstories about the songs, and interactive ways to share your FLUX experience with your friends via social media. It has been cheekily described as "the first SAAS music album", due to its ever-evolving status.
FLUX is a creative platform that will surprise and engage you every time you experience it. It's time for something different.
Adrian Belew is a multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, producer, and guitarist, who has released 20 critically acclaimed solo albums, while working alongside some of the most innovative artists of the past 30 years, including Paul Simon, David Bowie, Talking Heads, Frank Zappa, and Nine Inch Nails, among others. For 33 years he was the frontman, singer, and guitarist in art-rock giant King Crimson. Known as a highly inventive guitarist, much of Belew's music mixes pop songwriting with complex time signatures, witty lyrics, wild sounds, and a technical mastery of his instrument.
FLUX by belew™ - As seen in Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, the Guardian, theQuietus, Synthtopia, Adland.TV, TeamRock, Guitar Moderne, Guitar Player and many more!
• Q: Is FLUX by belew™ the same as FLUX:FX - by Adrian Belew?
• A: No. FLUX by belew™ is the app platform delivering the music and artwork of Adrian, the 'painting' if you will. FLUX:FX is the app that Adrian has developed with NOII.SE that is a multi-effect audio processor, or the 'paintbrush' for his sounds. Go to flux.noii.se for more details.
• Q: I have downloaded and launched the app, but all I see is a dark background with icons on it and I can only swipe left and right.
• A: this is the 'onboarding wizard'. Please swipe all the way to the end and tap on the 'close' text. We will update this to make it clearer in the next version.
• Q: I have a problem or suggestion with the app, should I leave feedback in the appstore?
• A: If you leave a comment or question in the feedback here we are not able to respond to it. Please go to http://bit.ly/fluxsupport or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com and we will do our best to help.
What's New
Version 1.2.1
Hi all, thanks once again for your support and we hope you are enjoying the ever-changing experience that is FLUX by belew™. this is an interim release to quash a few small bugs in the system. The first one was around the Audiobus integration - this required all the audio files to be converted to caff format in real-time, but it was causing some very minor glitches and a little gap at the start of some tracks when the FLUX randomiser button was used. So now the way the app works is to do a check to see if the Audiobus app is installed - if not then we can bypass the conversion process and the playback should be super smooth. If Audiobus IS installed (maybe you want to process FLUX by belew™ through FLUX:FX for maximum 'adrianity'!) then we keep that functionality in there, but just don't overuse the FLUX button and you won't notice anything.
Other things we have updated:
- some minor tweaks around the screen capture for the Gallery and My FLUX sections. Snapshots are now saved immediately into the Gallery.
- track length data for the FLUXette pack audio is now correct :)
- iPad pro/iPhone 6S(+)/iPhone SE compatibility
We hope you are still enjoying the app, and please don't forget to leave some great app-store ratings to help us out. A new FLUX pack is in the works, so stay tuned for even more.
Ratings and ReviewsSee All
Great app, but a couple of things...
1. Can you auto-pause playback when another iOS app takes control of audio?
2. Can you enable iCloud integration so things like Favorites are synced across devices?
Keep up the great work!
Flux by belew is Like Having the Master Performing in Your Own Home Just For You
I just downloaded the "Expansion Pack" to Flux by Belew and I thought it was time to share my thoughts on this wonderful App. I have been a huge Adrian Belew fan since the mid-80s. Flux is like having the master perform right in the comfort of your own home. He's just jamming away and like "real life," it is "never the same twice."
It is the best $10 you will ever spend on any App. It only works with iPhones so trash the Samsung that you can't take on planes anyway, and enjoy Adrian and his snippets anywhere!
I like it!
This is the most amazing app ever invented. Every time you listen it is a completely different musical and visual experience.
As you travel through life, no experience can ever be exactly replicated, even if you try to recreate moments, they never come out the same way. Imagine if you walked the same street every day at the same time. Even though you travel the same ground, the walk is always different in sight, sound, smell, etc. Tis is what Flux is like.
The sound quality is also great!

NEW YORK — At Wednesday's City Hall press conference, Mayor Michael Bloomberg told reporters that the NFL's big kickoff in Times Square Sept. 5 will not decimate Broadway ticket sales that day.
"The theater has been worried," he said. "It will be a minor inconvenience at worst. It will be a boon to Broadway and Off Broadway."
The theater community has been in a tizzy since the mayor and the NFL announced July 30 that Bon Jovi and other rock bands would hold a five-hour concert on Broadway's turf to mark the countdown to the NFL season's kickoff between the San Francisco 49ers and the New York Giants at Giants Stadium.
Broadway had expected a rough first two weeks in September due to the Sept. 11 anniversary and the Jewish holidays of Rosh Hashana (Sept. 6 and 7) and Yom Kippur (Sept. 15 and 16). But then New Year's Eve-size crowds were promised, not in the middle of the night but during rush hour on Sept. 5.
NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue joined the mayor at the press conference. He estimated the media value to the city at $100 million in national TV and radio coverage.
Performers for the event include Bon Jovi, DJ Skribble, Eve, Alicia Keys and Enrique Iglesias. Also skedded is a 20-minute fashion show.
As for the square's immediate residents, at least two producers requesting anonymity told Daily Variety that their shows would boycott the event.
"I wouldn't use the word 'boycott,' " said Jed Bernstein, president of the League of American Theaters and Producers. The NFL did ask the Broadway trade org for its participation. "As a group, we decided not to take advantage of the publicity," said Bernstein. "Some producers may participate, but we did not want to create a track record of these events, which can be disruptive to the theater."
Tim Tomkins, president of Times Square BID credited meetings between the league and the mayor's office with narrowing the window of the event. Originally skedded for five hours, the event now runs from 4:30-8 p.m. Broadway curtains will be pushed back half an hour to go up at 8:30.
At the press conference, Bloomberg was dismissive of the effect on box office that day. "The only inconvenience is getting to hotels, restaurants or the theater, and a police officer will be there to help you," he offered.
"New York is the place to stage big events!" he enthused.

On June 10, 2014, the Etihad Airways celebrated the launch of the new airline service between Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), Calif., and Abu Dhabi International Airport (AUH), United Arab Emirates at the legendary Hearst Home estate in Beverly Hills, Calif.
Hearst Home once belonged to the media mogul William Randolph Hearst. Today, Hearst Home is considered the most expensive house on the market in the entire United States, worth $165 million dollars. It is approximately 6.25 acres of land and 75,000 square feet of living space. Former United State President John F. Kennedy and his wife Jacqueline Kennedy honeymooned in this home. The home is a celebrity itself, having appeared in the movies "Bodyguard" and "Godfather", graced the cover of Vanity Fair, featured in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal aaand has been leased by the celebrities to celebrate everything from Rihanna's birthday bash to a party for Prince Albert of Monaco.
Upon the arrival, the red carpet was rolled out to its elite VIP guests and welcomed with a performance from the classical Arabian Ayala dancers. The guests were greeted and escorted through the mansion out to the courtyard by the Etihad Airways cabin crew. Arabic coffee was offered during the champagne reception where guests sampled canapés and enjoyed mingling during such flamboyant event. The decor and the garden area at the Hearst Home, was indeed to die for. The H-shaped residence exhibits a perfect combination of Spanish and Italian style, with intricately carved ceilings and paneled walls, French doors, balconies, arched ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, which overlook the famous cascading waterfalls to the pool and the Venetian columns beyond the pool house.
After the reception, the guests were escorted to their tables and each table had a name. It was named after the islands off the coast of Abu Dhabi. The Etihad Airways' extravagance gala was filled with almost 500 guests including Yousef Al Otaiba, UAE Ambassador to the United States, Michael H. Corbin, U.S. Ambassador of UAE, and celebrities such as Dannii Minogue, the X Factor Judge; legendary Quincy Jones; former astronaut Buzz Aldrin; Chef Wolfgang Puck; and Shaun Toub with special live performance by Harry Connick, Jr. and his band.
Michael Duddie, Operator and Executive Chef Guus Wickenhagen from Event Horizon Catering served a three-course dinner, while the guests enjoyed Etihad Airways's and Abu Dhabi's amazing 3D mapping sound show. The Event Horizon Catering is best know for being one of Los Angeles' leading catering firms serving exquisite culinary offering to the iconic TCL Chinese Theater in Hollywood, Calif..
"The 7.4 billion dollars airline, Etihad Airways, is the only airline that offers residence and a nanny on board." mentioned James Hogan, Etihad Airways' President and Chief Executive Officer. In other words, the airline's A380 aircraft residence is the only three-room hotel in the sky, as well the airline's first class apartment, suites and business class products.
Etihad Airways is the national airline of the United Arab Emirates and has in just ten years established itself as the world's leading airline with multiple-award recognitions for over five consecutive years . "Etihad" is the Arabic word for "union". For additional information visit www.etihad.com
For the Etihad Airway's "Black Tie" event, I decided to wear a black gown from the top fashion designer Narciso Rodriguez who has dressed many royals including the First Lady Michelle Obama, Carolyn Kennedy Bessette, Kate Middleton and celebrities such as Charlize Theron, Reese Witherspoon, Jessica Alba, Katie Holmes, Claire Danes, Kim Kardashian amongst many others.
The black floor-length gown with the see-through lace decals around my waist complimented the look I was going for which was the classic Hollywood glamour look. I kept my make up to natural earth tone shades, styled my hair with a simple straight hair look and framed my face with the exquisite diamond earring studs. The completed look made me feel utterly feminine, glamorous, and confident for the attendance at one of the most prestige events in Beverly Hills with my handsome date/husband Arman Magz.

foot-candle(redirected from Footcandles)
Also found in: Dictionary, Thesaurus, Medical, Encyclopedia.

Volcanic pumice is a stone age tool for the 21st century, ideal for filing down foot calluses the time-honored way. Pumice forms when escaping gasses in airborne molten lava create solid foam. Thus forming one handy elemental tool. Stones wash down Mt. Shasta with the snowmelt. Thicker abrasive cell walls make these less buoyant than lighter kinds, but are far more durable. A cared for stone can last for years.
These natural pumice stones are as found in nature-each stone is unique and hand picked from a wild river on Mt. Shasta. These stones are available to just as you would find them in nature. They are approximately 2-3 inches long and weigh between 1.4-1.9 ounces.
For Callus removal: Soak and lather skin well to soften skin. Wet stone. Finding smoothest work face or point, scrub gently, increasing pressure as you attune to the process. Rinse often to slough away dead skin-pumice works with liquid. Finish with your favorite body butter.
Pumice Care: To unclog residue buildup, soak in hot soapy water. Scrub with wire brush, rinsing often. Handle with care; stones can fracture if dropped. Dry in sun to purify, re-energize and restore buoyancy.
Caution: Always use mindfully. This stone is exactly as found in nature so no warranty can be made. Do not use on inflamed skin, severe heal cracks; grit will irritate.
About the location these are obtained from: The kind man that I obtain these wonderful stones from lives just at the base of Mount Shasta in California. After the thaw and melting of the snow cap, he will spend hours pulling these from the streams and small pond like area near his home. He is an individual that solely owns and operates his own wholesale business which is quite small that I have chosen to support. I hope you will, too!

Chapter 01 – Page 00
Well well well. Here we are at last. The side dishes are still in the making but the main course is already being served.
Or something.
This has been a long time coming. Machine Flower has been my beloved brain-child since… well, before I knew what the internet was. It's evolved a lot over the years but I think it's finally ready for an audience. Forcing myself to overcome stage fright to bring it to you today… on 2009.01.09. I hope I've created something you'll enjoy a little.
