After only a year on the market, the Toyota Supra is already getting some revisions.
On Thursday the 2021 Toyota Supra was announced with a turbo-4 engine option, more power for the turbo-6 engine, more standard technology, and revised chassis tuning—along with a lower price.
The base 2021 Supra will be powered by a 2.0-liter turbo-4 with 255 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. No manual transmission joins the lineup for the option to #GiveAShift.
Four-cylinder Supras weigh in 200 pounds less than the six-cylinder models at 3,181 pounds. Having two fewer cylinders helps save weight, as do smaller 13-inch front brake rotors with single-piston calipers, and the lack of an active rear differential and adaptive suspension. Inside, the new base model goes with a four-speaker sound system instead of a 10-speaker system, and has manually adjustable seats.
2021 Toyota Supra
Toyota said the turbo-4 Supra maintains a 50:50 weight balance and sprints from 0 to 60 mph in 5.0 seconds on the way to an electronically limited 155-mph top speed.
The 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-6 returns and produces 382 hp instead of last year's 335, while torque is 368 lb-ft up from the previous 365. Toyota said the power increase comes from a new six-port dual-branch exhaust manifold (last year's model had two ports), revised heat management, and a new piston design that reduced the engine's compression from 11:1 to 10.2:1.
The increased power output also increases performance with the last year's 0 to 60 sprint of 4.1 seconds dropping to 3.9 seconds, though top speed remains electronically limited at 155 mph.
Toyota modified the chassis on six-cylinder models for 2021 with aluminum braces from the radiator to the strut towers, new front and rear bump stops, and an updated tune on the dampers. The electric power steering, adaptive suspension, stability control, and active rear differential all received revised programming to work with the upgraded bracing and suspension tune.
2021 Toyota Supra
Every 2021 Supra will come standard with an 8.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay. A forward-collision warning with automatic emergency braking is also included. Adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitors, rear cross-traffic alert, parking sensors, navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay, and a 12-speaker 500-watt JBL audio system will be on the options list.
Toyota said it will offer 1,000 A91 editions in colors Nocturnal or Refraction with a black carbon fiber lip spoiler, matte black wheels, C-pillar graphics, and carbon-fiber mirror caps. Inside the limited-edition cars will be covered in black suede leather-trimmed seats with blue contrast stitching, a trunk mat, and key gloves. The front brake calipers on turbo-6 Premium models and the A91 Edition will be painted red and feature a Toyota Supra logo.
Toyota didn't say how much the 2021 Supra will cost when it arrives in dealerships in June, but noted it will be less expensive and more fuel efficient than the 2020 model because of the turbo-4 engine option.

Introduction: Repairing Solar Cells
This is a trick I use to attach wires to glass solar cells.
I fallow the three R rules of living green; Reduce, Reuse and Recycle, as well as I try to find sources of renewable resources.
To achieve this goal I salvage many things from the garbage and one of the things I salvage from the garbage is solar garden lights.
Solar garden lights can be so inexpensive to buy people don't repair them when they stop working; they just throw them in the garbage when they stop working and this is where I step in.
By salvaging the solar lights from the garbage I reduce the waste going to the landfill, R1.
By repairing the lights I reuse them R2.
And by stripping for the good parts and recycling the other materials, R3.
With solar lights and the solar cells you get a renewable resource, solar energy.
In this Instructable I will be covering repairing the solar cell.
The most common repair to a solar light is replacing the battery with a rechargeable battery (Not a disposable battery,) please. Replacing the battery with a disposable battery is a mistake I see in many of the solar lights I salvage.
The next most common defect is oxidized wires and the hardest to replace is the leads on the solar cell. Whether by oxidization or breaking while striping the solar light you may need to replace the lead wires to the solar cell and you cannot just solder new leads onto the cell in many cases.
Liquid solder that does not need heat to bond the materials together don't always conduct electricity however I have found something that does conduct electricity and connects the leads to the solar cell.
It is called "Quick Grid Repair Resin" and it is to repair the rear window defogger in your car, I buy it at the local automotive supply.
First gather the tools and materials you will need and organize them:
A small paint brush
A multimeter
Quick Grid Repair Resin
Scrub Pad
Cells to be repaired
Clean the cells of all debris, (Do not use metal scrub pads or sandpaper to scrape clean the solar cells.)
Test the cells with a multimeter and mark the polarity.
Cut the new lead wires and strip the ends.
Tape the wires in place and dab on plenty of Quick Grid Repair Resin.
Let the resin set and test the solar cell even under low room light you should get a reading on the multimeter.
After testing and confirming the connections remove the tape and glue or use silicone calking to secure the lead wires and let the glue set.
When the glue or calking is set retest all the connections and your solar cells are ready for your next renewable energy project. The trick in this Instructable the Quick Grid Repair Resin, it is like soldering without heat.

Interesting failure mode I just documented on "open frame" panels with the green back, the encapsulant around the edge degrades and goes low resistance. I did find a fix though, confirmed that removing it or otherwise bypassing around it (cough laser etcher /cough) will work and the panel can then be re-sealed and used. YMMV! The front contact is a PITA though and about all you can do is etch it with mechanical means or sometimes household 3% H2O2 or blue glow stick juice will work. Thanks Jeri for the tip!
Thanks for the input and you are welcome.
Exactly what I'm trying to do, fix decorative solar lights in the yard which are not the $2.98 lights. Thanks.
You are welcome.

Ive got over 500 of these little guys all cut out. Im happy you showed me this becuase many of them have lost wires.
Cool that is about 30 to 40 watts.
Watch out for a plastic backing on some of them.
Great reuse of otherwise refused products....I always wondered how the wires were attached as I operated on a defective panel and tried to hot solder the wire...the voltage was correct but the current was paltry. Now that I am retired, my job in life is to find ways to reuse what most people are busily throwing in the trash. Hopefully you did not find any panels in the compost pile or mixed in with decaying food (garbage). Trashed items like solar lights, microwaves, household appliances, electronics etc have many usable parts. There aren't too many people - there are too many people trashing the planet.
I salvage and repair everything, fishing, hunting, appliances, and home entertainment. the only thing I don't do is refrigeration because of the specialized equipment. if man makes it man breaks it and I fix it.
can u use a copper wire higher gage?
Yes just not to big or stiff or it will break off easily.
I have a box full of "bad" solar lights from the dollar store. Thanks to your clear instructions I'm reusing em'. Excellent instructable.
Glad to help. I have an Instructable on the care and maintenance of garden lights also if you are interested.
http://homemadeiseasy.blogspot.com/ WOULD YOU GIVE me permission to post this on my blog? I'm a "Prepper", It would be nice to get all your hard work out there. AND I ALWAYS give proper credit & photos have your name as credit as well. Thanks, HomeMommy13
Go ahead I am a member of Safe America
me find some thing build me solar power ? know get help some me know soon can ?
Sweet! How much is this resin? I've never seen it before but knew there had to be something simple to repair defrosters with.
I got that jar a year ago at NAPA auto parts for about $5 the jar is about the size of the first segment of my little finger. It is real cheep compaired to replacing the window just to fix the defroster. I use the resin for any job that will not solder like connecting a wire to glass or aluminium. in thin narow strips It gets hot under power and you can make custom resistors on glass or ceramics with it. If you use thick gobbs of it it doesn't get hot.
Hello Josehf,
Not having any electrical experience at all except for household things like changing switches and fuses, have some quesions if you don't mind. Built a 5' octagon lighthouse and put an outside glass light on top. Also bought a bunch of cheap solar garden lights which I installed in the glass light. Then chiseled out the wooden top platform and glued the solar cells in, thus surrounding the glass light externally with 4 solar cells and 4 leds inside the glass light.
The difficult part was extricating the solar cells from the plastic garden lights since they were all normally glued with either a silicon or rubber based adhesive. In this process many times had to repair the wires from the solar cells and soldering does not work on these glass solar cells. Thus the questions.
The Quick Grid Repair Resin seems to alleviate the soldering issue and living also in a small town finding a bottle of this resin may require a trip to a NAPA store somewhere but that is fine. Have used it to repair the defroster on the back window of the car but it was a kit for one application and cost $13.00. Thus my assumption is that this bottle is all I need.
You also stated that the polarity of the cell needs to be checked. Usually I go by the coloring of wires normally being red and black, but some have the same color. I do have a multimeter and need to know how to set it up for polarity because you don't refer to conductivity.
It has always been difficult for me to check the circuit once its assembled but does not work. The wiring is so small and delicate to work with and me having big thumbs. Thought of going to heavier gauge but scared to change the formulation of the circuit.
Nevertheless, have finished the project and she's sitting in my front yard. But I'm planning another one, building a light house, probably bigger and including fiber optic strings to go down the lines of the lighthouse and on the guard rails of the top and bottom platforms. Thus having solar cells on both platforms embedded into the wood. The woodworking part is easy for me but the electronics are not. Your comments on the use of Quick grid repair is great and basic repair helps a lot. Developing a circuit for this is not.
Any comments would be appreciated.
Wally (email@example.com
Make sure to seal the back of the solar cells well any water gets to the back of the cell and they mess up.
All you need is the bottle of the Quick Grid Repair Resin and a small brush the bottle I showed there was the size of the last digit of my pinky finger and it did 24 solar cells in one sitting. It does not store well after being opened so I tend to use it up in one sitting.
Do not use conductivity when checking polarity on a solar cell if the cell is strong enough it can bugger your meter.
When I check the polarity I check the voltage produced by the cell I set my multimeter for the lowest setting above 2 volts DC. On the meter in my instructable that is 20 volts DC then I touch the leads of my meter to the contact locations of the solar cells and expose the cell to light. The meter should react just like it would if you touched the leads to a battery the red lead is positive and it should read a number like 3.5 volts if the positive lead is connected to the positive side of the cell. If the positive lead is connected to the negative side of the cell it will read a minus number like -3.5 volts.

Adorn my smile, crown my lip
March Mustache Madness Winter passes by
Beards, like snow, receed to show
a handsome mustache
Mustache on my face
Why? Why not! It's March, and so
I wear a mustache
live by the blade, die
put it down and hold my hand

dark grows on my face
soon form will spring from shadow
life drunk to the lees
|Life is a mustache.
Itchy, sneezy, frustrating.
But worth the hassle.

|My response:
You write a haiku
To scold your hard-working son
But still I grow it!

All of the villages in Colca Canyon have some sort of lodging, whether camping (campamento), municipal dorms (albergue municipal), family-run inns (pensión familiar), hostels or hotels. Chivay has the largest selection of choices, for all tastes and budgets. Camping is not recommended in larger town, for risk of robberies. For camping, cabañas or family homestays, expect to pay about $4.50 per person. In the villages on the canyon's south side are several more luxurious lodges, complete with superb views and hot springs.

The decision to put your cat up for adoption is not an easy one. With no other options, rehoming your cat with a new owner ensures that she can live her life out in peace. The adoption process takes time and effort to find your kitty a good home.
Visit your local shelters to see if they accept cats for adoption. Some of these shelters are no-kill, meaning that they won't euthanize your cat if she doesn't find a new family, while others are not. Unfortunately, many of the no-kill shelters may be too full to take your kitty because their space is limited. Inspect the facilities to decide if the facility will properly care for your cat and make an effort to find her a new home. Many shelters charge a small fee to accept your cat and put her up for adoption.
Speak with your veterinarian about putting your cat up for adoption. Many veterinary offices have a small area dedicated to cats available for adoption. Ask your vet if he would be willing to take care of your cat and put her up for adoption in the office. Contact other veterinarians in your area who may offer cats for adoption and ask if they can take your cat and help to rehome her. While some of the vets you speak to may not accept your cat for adoption, they may allow you to post a picture and written description of your cat on a bulletin board in the office. This way, their clients can look at the adoption ad for your cat while they wait to see the vet in the waiting room; an interested party may contact you to adopt your kitty.
Contact local cat rescue groups to see if they would be willing to accept your cat and put her up for adoption. Many such groups are breed-specific and will only accept certain types of purebred cats. You can find a list of local rescue groups through the Petfinder website. If you adopted your cat through a rescue group, contact them again. Many rescues will take back a cat that they placed with you in the past, if they have the room and resources to do so, and place her up for adoption.
Online Resources
Social networking websites dedicated to cats, such as Catster, allow you to list a profile and picture of your cat. There is an option to list your pet as currently available for adoption in the profile. Those interested will message you to set up a meeting with you and your cat. Other online resources like Craigslist allow you to place a classified ad for your cat online. Human social networking websites like Facebook or Twitter can help you get the word out to friends and acquaintances that your cat is available for adoption. Even if they themselves can't adopt your cat, they may know people that can. Some rescues, like the Cat Welfare Society, allow you to post a classified ad for your cat on their public adoption board, available on their website for potential adopters.
Screening Adopters
If you place a classified ad offering your cat for adoption, be sure to meet with the prospective adopter. Ask for references from their veterinarian if they have owned other pets to ensure that they are not looking to harm the cat and are capable of reasonably caring for her long-term. Charging a small adoption fee can sometimes deter those looking for "free" cats to use in experiments or sell to a laboratory that does. These unscrupulous people are known as "Class B" dealers, according to the Humane Society of the United States. A home inspection, if possible, helps to avoid giving the cat to such a dealer or even a hoarder.
Contact the breeder you purchased your cat from, if she is a purebred; most breeders will be willing to take back your cat and find her a new home themselves. If you are putting your cat up for adoption because of a behavioral problem, such as inappropriate elimination, try working on this with the help of your veterinarian or an animal behaviorist before relinquishing your cat. In some cases, a medical problem could be causing the behavioral problem, which requires treatment with a vet. Before offering your cat for adoption, disclose any behavioral or health problems to the person you speak with. Some rescue groups will only accept spayed or neutered cats who are up to date on their vaccinations.
Never simply drop your cat off in a wooded area or out onto the street. Not only is this cruel, but the chances that your domesticated cat will survive in the wild without food and water are slim to none. Abandoning your cat can also result in a citation by your local animal control.

In contrast to the situation in heterotrophic organisms, plant genomes code for a significantly larger number of oxidoreductases such as thioredoxins (TRXs) and glutaredoxins (GRXs). These proteins provide a biochemical mechanism that allows the rapid and reversible activation or deactivation of protein functions in response to changing environmental conditions, as oxidative conditions caused by excessive photosynthesis. Indeed, owing to the fact that cysteines are sensitive to oxidation, TRXs and GRXs play an essential role in controlling the redox state of protein thiol groups. These redox-dependent post-translational modifications have proven to be critical for many cellular functions constituting regulatory, signalling or protective mechanisms. The articles contained in this Research Topic provide timely overviews and new insights into thiol-dependent redox regulation mechanisms with a focus on TRX- and GRX-based reduction systems in plants. The different contexts discussed take into account physiological, developmental and environmental conditions.

We live in the country so cable isn't an option. We decided on going with Direct TV because they had better HD options than Dish Network. We were warned about their terrible customer service by my in-laws and my husband's grandpa. They all said that we would be sorry that we went with them. Well, after my half hour phone call yesterday, they are so right!
I called yesterday because I had a question about an HD channel. It was answered in a very satisfactory manner (not the answer that we wanted but still very politely dealt with). While I was on the phone with them, I asked if they had received the rebates we were eligible for. They had to transfer me to billing. That's fine. After much ado, Lori in billing told me that the advertised price of $34.99 for the package that we got doesn't include some things. There was $15 of items that were extra that we had--like an HD receiver and extra DVR. Ok, I get that. We wanted those things. She then tells me that we didn't qualify for a $5 rebate per month for 24 months because we didn't do the rebates via internet. I called in to do them because we didn't have our internet set up yet. WTF!!!!!!! I talk to her supervisor and he tells me that they're not able to change it now. I tell him that I understand what he's saying but that this is completely shitty customer service! I ask if we can listen to the recording from when we signed up for the service. They tell me that I have to go online to request it. I know that they didn't tell us that it was going to cost us $5 per month for 2 years if we didn't do the rebates online.
$120 for our stupidity and I'm sure as hell going to cancel when our contract is up.

Direct TV = Terrible Service
2 comments:
That would be extremely frustrating. would it cost less then $120 to cancel? it might be worth it to threaten to do it now.ReplyDelete
That is highly frustrating! I had DirecTV for a while and had tons of problems! Finally waited out my contract and headed over to DISH Network. Their customer service was horrible, but now that I work and subscribe with DISH I get awesome service. They are ranked number 1 in customer satisfaction among all satellite and cable companies and I see why! They upgraded my equipment to HD with ease and gave me HD Free for Life. I love it!ReplyDelete

Speech Delivered by Mister Houphouet-Boigny, Minister of State at the Geo-Andre Stadium in Abidjan on September 7, 1958
Félix Houphouët-Boigny (1905-93) was the first president of Côte d'Ivoire. He gave this speech shortly before a September 1958 referendum on the future of French West Africa. Houphouët-Boigny outlined the country's path to independence, but also called for the preservation of strong ties with France, within a new French Community. Côte d'Ivoire became a de facto French protectorate under a series of treaties concluded in 1843-44, and a French colony in 1893. From 1904 to 1958, Côte d'Ivoire was part of the federation of French West Africa. With the passage of the 1958 referendum, in December 1958 Côte d'Ivoire became an autonomous republic within the French Community. The country became fully independent on August 7, 1960. Houphouët-Boigny served as president from 1960 until his death in 1993. As president, he favored close ties with France and the West. He opposed plans to create a West African federation, in part because he feared that the relatively prosperous Côte d'Ivoire would have to subsidize the other members of the federation.

Don't Just Roll The Dice
I recently worked on the illustrations for the second edition of the free e-book "Don't Just Roll The Dice", written by Neil Davidson and published by Efendi books, which you can download here. The illustrations were very fun to do, and I also got to work with traditional watercolours ("proper" paint!) which I found much harder than digital watercolours due to a lack of the Edit>Undo function. The illustrations were all whimsical takes on the chapter titles, so "Pricing pitfalls" became a man falling down through a cloud of money, for example.
The book is about how to price software, and it a really concise, clear read for all you computer scientists. I'd recommend you have a look!
My favorite illustration to do was the woman sitting on the elephant! I'm very happy about how that one has come out. If you have any comments, please get in touch via Twitter or email!

From Russia with love: Goliath's new photo book
Posted: June 27, 2018
With Russia very much in the news, thanks to its staging of this summer's FIFA World Cup, Goliath Books has chosen an apposite month to release Natural & Naked, a collection of fresh-faced Russian girls photographed by Russian photographer Mikhail Paramonov.
The publisher said of the new release: "Paramonov's latest erotic photographic project includes three of the most important ingredients for creating successful nude photography: fresh, bright beauties with long legs, firm breasts and soft skin; natural, young and sexy- as nature made her, without tattoos or artificial enhancements; naked, free, wild and without shame- girls eagerly displaying their hottest assets to the viewer. A big thanks to Paramonov for making a true statement against the increasing prudery in our society."
Over 300 images are included in the book, which retails at £32.99. For more information visit www.goliathbooks.com

UK regulator revokes Kurdish Med TV's licence
The London-based Kurdish satellite channel Med TV has condemned as "undoubtedly political" the decision by the UK's Independent Television Commission to revoke its broadcasting licence.
Peter Feuilherade of BBC Monitoring's Foreign Media Unit has the background: The UK Independent Television Commission (ITC) today (23rd April) revoked the broadcasting licence of the Kurdish satellite channel Med TV, which uplinks its broadcasts from London by satellite.
Med TV's licence was suspended on 22nd March following four broadcasts which, in the ITC's view, " included inflammatory statements encouraging acts of violence in Turkey and elsewhere" .
Med TV said in a press release this afternoon it was " outraged" by the decision, adding: "The decision is undoubtedly political and Med TV fears the decision is inspired by the UK government's relationship with Turkey, its NATO ally, particularly at the present time" .
Med TV added: "We can reassure the Kurdish people that we will be back on air before long." The programmes of Med TV, in Kurdish dialects and Turkish, as well as a daily news bulletin in English, were aimed at Kurds living in Europe and the Middle East, in particular Turkey.
Med TV's newsroom and production centre are in Belgium, and the company also has facilities in other European capitals.
In 1994 Med TV was granted a 10-year licence by the Independent Television Commission (ITC), which regulates all commercial TV broadcasts in the UK.
It began regular broadcasting on a Eutelsat satellite in May 1995, but pressure from Turkey on several European countries forced the station to change its satellite transmission arrangements repeatedly.
In the past Med TV has also used Intelsat and Orion satellites, and it was carried most recently on a Eutelsat Hot Bird satellite.
On four occasions between November 1996 and March 1998, Med TV received warnings and fines for breaches of the ITC's rules on impartiality.
In November 1998 the ITC warned Med TV that its licence would be revoked if over the following six months its service failed to comply with its licence and the ITC's Programme Code.
That warning followed two breaches of the ITC Programme Code and reflected what the ITC described as "a recurrent lack of balance in political coverage" .
ITC Chairman Sir Robin Biggam said today that while the commission had taken "sympathetic" account of the circumstances in which the offending broadcasts had been made, and the changes Med TV itself had proposed to make to its service in future, the ITC had decided to revoke the station's licence "in the public interest" .
"Whatever sympathy there may be in the United Kingdom for the Kurdish people, it is not in the public interest to have any broadcaster use the UK as a platform for broadcasts which incite people to violence.
Med TV have been given many opportunities to be a peaceful voice for their community; to allow them to continue broadcasting after such serious breaches would be to condone the misuse of the UK's system for licensing broadcasters," the ITC chairman stated.
He added that while the ITC regretted the step, it was obliged by parliament "to act in such circumstances." The Turkish government, alleging that Med TV is a mouthpiece for the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), has on several occasions accused the station of broadcasting " terrorist propaganda" .
Ankara has brought pressure to bear on most countries that have leased airtime to Med TV, and has repeatedly asked the UK to close down the station.
Med TV in turn has accused the Turkish authorities on several occasions of disrupting its transmissions by "sabotage" and "state jamming" .
The ITC decision was reported factually and without comment by Turkey's Anatolia news agency.
Med TV now has a number of options: it could seek a new country to grant it a licence; it could try to struggle on, using satellite feeds booked by the hour, which appear to fall outside any UK licensing regulations; it could make more use of the Internet; and it could form a different TV channel in the UK or elsewhere.

ART 380 // Contemporary Photographic Strategies
Kiss Goodbye (2017)
Digital Print, 17.5 x 23 inches
The assignment was to create a deadpan image that left the viewer with very little clues. I thought I could take advantage of my state of mind, and show externally how I am feeling internally. I have been hiding my true internal self for so long, it was nice to finally let it out. I recently got out of a relationship where my feelings were denied and minimized and I was told I was useless. I wasn't allowed to show anyone how trapped I felt, and I stayed. I was taken away from my friends, family, work, school, and I eventually stopped fighting back. I numbed myself to stop the anxiety, despair and frustration I felt. So yes, in the image I look sad, but I also hope to look strong and finally willing to stand up for myself. This image is the representation of me coming to realize I am only human. I have emotions and it is okay to show it.

A Haskell datastore. Datastores are often referred to as "ORM"s. While 'O' traditionally means object, the concept can be generalized as:
avoidance of boilerplate serialization
In addition , the ORM concept is a way to make what is usually an un-typed driver type-safe. In dynamic languages rather than compile time errors, safety comes from creating specific dynamic errors rather than sending nonsense queries to the database.
Persistent's goal is to catch every possible error at compile-time, and it comes close to that.
Backend agnostic
Supports PostgreSql, Sqlite, MongoDB, Redis, ZooKeeper, and many other databases via persistent-odbc. The MySQL backend is in need of a maintainer. Currently there are issues with migrations and support for composite and primary keys is lacking.
Persistent is designed to be adaptable to any datastore, and to allow multiple datastores to be used simultaneously. The serialization layer should be adaptable to any datastore.
Providing a universal query layer will always be limiting. A major limitation for SQL databases is that the persistent library does not directly provide joins. However, you can use Esqueleto with Persistent's serialization to write type-safe SQL queries. Key-value stores such as Redis can be used with persistent, but only fill out the key-value portion of the API (PersistStore) rather than the query portion (PersistQuery).
Persistent provides several hooks to create backend-specific functionality. One can always fall back to using the raw database driver or other lower-level or less type-safe libraries and can utilize Persistent for un-serializing the database response to a Haskell record.

On Sunday, May 1st, Rev. John "Wes" "Revie" Anderson passed away surrounded by his wife of 57 years, his 6 living children along with some grandchildren, a great grand child and close family friends. His life was truly a life well lived. He was the only child of John and Elsie Anderson. He was born December 17, 1927 in Audubon, NJ. After serving his country in the U.S. Navy, he graduated from Franklin & Marshall in 1953 with a degree in History. He and new wife Joan headed to Chicago, IL, where he graduated in 1956 from the McCormick Theological Seminary with a divinity degree. His first church was in Montoursville, PA, or as he referred to, "God's quiet country." He served the Montoursville church from 1956 until 1968 when he returned to Lancaster. Wes or Revie was the Pastor of the Bethany Presbyterian Church until his retirement from the active pastorate in 1993. In addition to his many church and ecumenical activities, he was a passionate supporter of the S. June Smith Center, the annual CROP walk, the Lancaster Epilepsy Service Unit and the Community First Fund. If not involved with a church activity, attending a meeting for a community organization, he could be found among the tomato plants or corn rows of his beloved vegetable garden. In his retirement, he served as an interim pastor at a number of churches, sang with the Franklin and Marshall Alumni singers and attended countless events that involved his grandchildren.

"Like so many people, we were completely shocked by the tragic loss of Viola Beach, so we didn't hesitate to dedicate creative time to develop branding and collateral for RivFest."
Christian James, MD of the if agency
Manchester based if agency has demonstrated its passion for enabling creative young talent to thrive, by donating its time to the organisers of RivFest, (the annual music festival established by the family of the late Viola Beach guitarist River Reeves), to develop branding and event collateral for this year's festival.
The one-day festival, (in association with Arriva and Warrington Festival), was established to raise funds for the River Reeves Foundation, to help support young people wishing to pursue a career in arts and music. It will see 5,000 music lovers descend on Priestley College this Sat the 2nd September, to watch Maximo Park, Billy Bragg, Eliza and the Bear and many more artists perform.
The four members of Viola Beach – River Reeves, Kris Leonard, Tomas Lowe, Jack Dakin – and their manager Craig Tarry were all tragically killed when their car left a bridge in Sweden in February 2016.
Christian James, managing director of the IF agency said: "Like so many people, we were completely shocked by the tragic loss of Viola Beach. We work closely with Arriva, who are one of the partners of RivFest and when they asked us if we could spare some creative time to develop branding and collateral, we didn't hesitate. Supporting future young creatives establish a career in the arts and music industry is something we are proud to be involved with".
Proceeds of the festival will go to the River Reeves Foundation, who will be working with Arriva NW to build a bus fleet to include a recording studio bus, animation bus, theatre bus, dance bus, and a creative arts bus, as well as single decker buses providing mental health support for youngsters across Warrington's schools - as part of the Future in Mind initiative.
This year, for every ticket sold, £1 will be donated to the We Love Manchester campaign set up by the British Red Cross and Manchester City Council in support of victims of the recent terrorist attack in the city. Tickets for the event are on sale now via a variety of methods at www.riverreevesfoundation.org/rivfest-2017.

I had my dual-screen interactive installation up and running, where webpages are transformed into 3D 'buildings' in real time. As well as 3D prints of worlds most valuable webpage's, printed in precious metals.
Web Spaces – Parallel City
Dual-channel video projection
Duration: 7m48s
Site specific (no pun intended) work for the Re-structions exhibition at SIGN, Groningen.
In my interactive installation of Web Spaces, which was also exhibited during Re-structions, you visit one isolated Web Space at a time. These are mostly Web Spaces from internationally well known websites. The Web Space is surrounded by darkness.But as you may already know, the Web Spaces project is exploring the relation between the physical and digital world. At Re-structions I've taken the next step in blurring the line between these worlds. Instead of taking the most popular websites to transform into a Web Space, I've taken the websites from businesses in the same neighbourhood as the gallery (according to Google Maps).
Imagine you're visiting this exhibition at SIGN, Groningen. Before entering the gallery you've just been walking along the canal, through the streets and you've been looking at the buildings in the neighbourhood. Upon entering the gallery you see the same buildings projected onto a wall (left). On the right wall however, you see a world normally invisible when walking through a city.What I've done here is the following: I've transformed the architecture of websites from local businesses into 3D models. I've loaded those models into Google Earth. This is what you see on the right wall. Next I made a tour around these virtual buildings, based on the interesting angles of these Web Spaces. Then I synchronised these camera movements to the 'real world'. Google Earth holds a 3D representation of this neighbourhood and I can explore Groningen in 3D, a bit like a game world but based on satellite images from earth. So what you see on the left wall ('real world'), is determined by what I wanted to look at on the right wall (world of Web Spaces). It's both the same tour. The idea for this combination came after participating in the Materialising the Internet exhibition, where Clement Valla was showing his work based on Google Earth.
In this work, my world of Web Spaces has come a step closer to the real world. It holds a strong relation to the immediate physical surroundings of the viewer. And by using the digital representation of the real world from Google Earth, the real world is a step closer to the world of Web Spaces. These worlds are fusing more and more… Also now there's the opportunity to (realistically) invite the owners of the website to come and look at the results!
Panarchy and Feedback Loops
I've been commissioned to do an artistic exploration of Panarchy. What's panarchy? What did I make? Why me? I'll answer these questions in this post and show the results of this project!
Web Space – Wikipedia.com: Sold
Web Space – Wikipedia.com (22-8-2016)

3D printed PLA electroplated with copper, corrosion
Already from the start, during the Graduation Show, and at the Young Sprouts exhibition, art collectors expressed interest in acquiring the Web Space of Wikipedia. I'm proud to announce that since last month it has joined many other artworks in the very diverse collection of Mr. Verberg!
Performance @ Winterwelvaart, Groningen
On December 16th I performed on a boat during Winterwelvaart festival in Groningen together with three singer-songwriters.
I was exited to be invited to play one of my songs with a string orchestra (JOG). Charles Belfor, a composer & cellist, made an arrangement for a string orchestra from one of my songs Rainforest Light. I was a bit nervous at first, because musically I'm not so well trained to be able to lead or guide an orchestra ;-). But luckily this wasn't my job for this collaboration. Charles told me he was going to arrange everything, and I could let myself be surprised by the result. Which was really nice, I was curious what he would make from it. And when I got together with the orchestra, I noticed it turned out beautifully.

It is midterm time and the end of the Spring Term. Feeling burnt out? Yeah you could say that in the least! I'm getting so tired of school and just can't wait for my Summer vacation. I am having low motivation on completing my homework. Just pushing along hard enough to get by at this point, but I want to keep my grades up so I need to work hard and not slack off at the end like I always do.
I know I can do this. I just recently broke up with my boyfriend and I miss his dumbass very much. He really was a sweetie and a good person but not good to me while he is using drugs and in a different mind state. I was always worried about him and wondering what he was doing while high because he gets into these crazy antics and I'm practically two states away from him while I'm up here in Oregon and he's close to Nevada. I have to admit that I really really miss him. And it makes me sad that when I go home next month for a week during Summer break that I will probably not see him, especially if he is still using. I don't know, it's complicated, but it's probably best if I just leave him alone. Well I have 2 essays to work on and a summer job to look for so I have to get busy and start working on those.
Not to mention my stomach ache that I've had for the past two weeks. It's been excruciating! Seriously painful. I went to the doctor and she said I probably have an ulcer so I've been drinking Mylanta like a Mo Fo. And it only seems to help for a little while. Soon, this coming week I will be getting an
ultrasound on my tummy to see what's going on in there. Plus it makes me bloated and I feel like I look like I'm pregnant which makes me feel uncomfortable and insecure. I have a BOFO (you see my stomach befo' you see my butt), because my stomach sticks out farther than my ass. How embarrassing! Anyway I hope to get my health taken care of so I can concentrate on my studies and not worry about all the pain I'm feeling in my abdomen.

August 21, 2017 Not since 1979 has a total eclipse of the Sun been visible on the US mainland. This will be a rare opportunity to enjoy an awesome experience … visible on a line from Oregon to South Carolina. Not too early to think about making reservations.
• Colorful alchemy documents from the 1700s. –>
• This years Hugo Award winners are …
• A US doctor describes a visit to an English health care facility.
" To receive this care all my cousin had to do was provide her name and birthdate. No copayments, no preauthorizations…"

(All 55 of the band's singles reached the top-10.)
Bonus: Basics of how Japanese writing works.
There are two kinds of people in this world, my fren. Those who sit on chairs, and those who sit on the floor.

I don't think 'reality' means what they think it means. Wired is pretty damned corporate.

Life in prison
A 48-year old Oconee man has been sentenced to life in prison for burglary first degree. The jury in General Sessions Court today returned a quick verdict against Curtis Eugene Land of Brown Street, Seneca arrested in September 2011 and charged with burglarizing a home in Oakway. For Land's part, life in prison is better than life on the outside. The defendant admitted to an addiction to drugs and said he'd rather be in jail than try to make it on the streets. Deputy Solicitor David Wagner told Judge Alex Macaulay that Land had a history of home burglaries, dating back to 1982. Said Wagner: "He just won't quit." In the Oakway home burglary, the court was told, Land scared a 13-year old boy home at the home. But the boy grabbed a gun and held it to ward off the intruder.

I also finished off two Halloween costumes, Yoda...
and a Minecraft creeper...
Pieced and appliqued this rainbow boat quilt. Will be quilting it next week. {It's my NewFO!}
In life news, not much happened beyond my sister's wedding. We are still waiting for EP approval from Korea. The Dude was home sick for two days, and sweetly shared it with me. I've been running sporadically and hesitating on signing up for the Seattle half marathon.
Her name is Cookies and Cream, aka CC. She is a
pain in the butt sweet little kitten. When she's tired. Which isn't often. The Dude is in love. {Tycho is not.}
