Tofu and cheese may sound like a weird pairing but don't be put off. Together, they actually produce a light, low fat yet delicious cheesecake. I usually make the rare (no-bake) version which was well received by many who tried it. This time I attempted the baked version out of curiosity. And also because I wanted to try another recipe from this book again ever since my previous success in baking these muffins from it.
I love anything with cream cheese. Cupcakes with cream cheese frosting, muffins topped with cream cheese filling and this brownie. If you like cheesecake AND brownie, I bet you will fall for this cheesecake brownie. It is my absolute favorite!

U.S. Drawn Into Tough World Cup Group
There was gloomy news from the U.S. men's national soccer team at Costa do Sauipe in Bahia, Brazil, the site of the 2014 World Cup Draw on Friday.
The U.S. was drawn into Group G, which also includes Germany, the odds-makers' second or third favorite, Cristiano Ronaldo-led Portugal and Ghana. The Black Stars have eliminated the U.S. in the last two World Cups.
Can someone say Group of Death? Or at least doom.
The U.S. opens their 2014 World Cup quest in Brazil against their previous conquerors, Ghana, on June 16, and Portugal on June 22 in Manuas, the Amazonian venue that most sides wanted to avoid because of its heat and humidity. Sam's Army closes the group stage versus Germany on June 26.
Relative to TV -- English-language rights are held by ESPN/ABC, while Univision Communications controls the Spanish-language telecasts -- the schedule for the U.S. is somewhat favorable. The first match against Ghana is slated for a Monday at 6 p.m. (ET) in Natal. The contest against the high-profile Ronaldo squad will air at 3 p.m. on Sunday, which will air on ABC, from Manaus. The German encounter will come on Thursday at noon from Recife.
As for the rest of the field, the host nation is joined by Cameroon, Croatia and Mexico in Group A. Group D, pitting Uruguay, Italy, England and Costa Rica, is considered to be the hardest unit, according to ESPN's Soccer Power Index, ahead of Group G. Group B is also a very tough group, comprisong defending champion Spain, 2010 runner-up The Netherlands, which will meet in the opener here, Chile and Australia.
The other quartets are considered to be less taxing: Group C: Colombia, Greece, Ivory Coast and Japan; Group E: Switzerland, Ecuador, France and Honduras; Group F: Leo Messi-led Argentina, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Iran and Nigeria; and Group H: Belgium, Algeria, Russia and
South Korea.
U.S. manager Jurgen Klinsmann, who coached Germany in the 2006 World Cup and thrice played for his homeland in the famed FIFA tourney, winning it in 1990, said the Americans certainly have their work cut out for them.
''It couldn't get any more difficult or any bigger,'' he said in an interview with ESPN's Jeremy Schaap at the draw in Costa do Sauipe. ''It's a real challenge. And we'll take it. We'll take it on, and hopefully we're going to surprise some people there.''
Klinsmann, though, wouldn't bill the U.S. as "underdogs." He added that "if one day we want to be in the top 10, top 12 of the world, we have to beat them."
As to Manaus, Klinsmann said that in his talks with other managers, everybody said they wanted to avoid the venue. "Well, we got Manaus. There's no excuses. We're going to deal with it."
Jed Drake, senior vice president and executive producer at ESPN, and his team will evidently have to deal with it as well. As was the case in 2010, ESPN plans to provide on-site, pre- and post-match coverage from the venues hosting the U.S. matches. Drake said the programmer will have talent either inside or outside the stadiums, with plenty of reporters on-site.
In the case of Manaus, that means getting personnel and equipment to a remote location.
During an interview earlier this week, Drake called it "the luck or unluck of the draw," as he had hoped the U.S. team wouldn't have to visit Arena Amazonia, located deep in the rainforest. "It's very, very dense terrain. We will literally have to float mobile units up the Amazon River," he said.


text: Pierre_ 0 Report post Posted September 24, 2007 Hello, This is my first post here, and I am french, so sorry if it's not really clear, and please ask me if it's not. I am trying to use a 633 TX and a 625 RX. It's not working (of course ) and I have some questions : - I use a 317 to provide the 3.3V supply to the 633, fed by a 6V supply able to give 1A. With no load, the output of the 317 is 3.3, but with the 633 connected, It falls to 2.2v. Normal ? (To me it's not, the 317 should maintain the voltage but I don't see what wrong with the wiring so maybe something that I havent understood...) - Before I applied the power for the first time, but after having solder the SMA connector directly to the 633 case, the Ohm value (bad english sorry) between the video input and the ground is 0. Again, normal ? - Can I live the channel selection pin to the air on the 633 and the 625 (I don't want to change the channel later, as I am sure to be alone) ? If you have any questions, or checks to suggest, you are welcome !! Thanks, Pierre Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lucio Fontana, Concetto Spaziale - Attese
Production 2017: Nordisk Drama & Dokumentär AB
You can also see it here
The three sweeping slashes incise the spectacular canvas of Lucio Fontana's Concetto Spaziale – Attese, 1960. The vibrant yellow colour in this impressive artwork shines and reflects the brightness of its master. One of the most important and appreciated artists of our times.
My cuts are above all a philosophical statement, an act of faith in the infinite, an affirmation of spirituality. When I sit down to contemplate one of my cuts, I sense all at once an enlargement of the spirit, I feel like a man freed from the shackles of matter, man at once with the immensity of the present and of the future. (Lucio Fontana quoted in the exhibition catalogue, Guggenheim Museum, New York 2006, page 23.)
Lucio Fontana (1899-1968) re-defined and revolutionised art and counts as one of the most influential post-war artists that had a widespread impact on the following generation of artists. He was born in Argentina and spent his career traveling between his native country and Italy. In 1946 his first manifest, the Manifesto Blanco was published. In this Fontana presented his ideas for creating a new medium, another dimension, that would blend architecture, painting and sculpture. This was the foundation of the Spazialismo (spatialism) and his aim was to break through the two-dimensionality of the traditional picture plane.
Times were changing: science, technology, quantum physics and space travel. Monumental leaps that awoke and intrigued Fontana's curiosity to create an art that would reflect the spirit of the time. He transcended the surface of the canvas to reveal a dark space beyond. A quite simple gesture in which the viewer was invited to be embedded in the darkness of the infinity beyond the picture plane. Through this he opened up, both literally and figuratively, a new dimension: "I don't want to make a painting; I want to open up space, create a new dimension, tie in the cosmos, as it endlessly expands beyond the confining plane of the picture".
In the late 1958 Fontana embarked on the tagli (cuts). This followed his buchi (hole) series in which he punctuated the canvas with small stabs. In the tagli works he sliced through the monochrome surface with the most profound concentration and precision. He gradually developed his process and technique, lengthening the cuts and reduced their number on the canvas. Through the combination of the dramatic execution and the minimal elegance of the monochromatic surface, he managed to create something never seen before. And not to forget – the telleta – the black strips of gauze on the backside of the canvas that are of equal importance as the cuts themselves since they represent the new dimension, the unknown and unexplored in which the past, present and future meets what we yet don't know. Because of this the tagli defines the quintessence of Lucio Fontana's career.
When creating the present work, Lucio Fontana perfectly mastered his technique. The spectacular painting impresses with its exceptional size and has ever since it was acquired at the Marlborough Gallery in 1964 been in the collection of the same family. Glowing against the rich yellow monochrome field are the three incisions that all vary in length and angle but rythmically follows one another like in a ballet of perfect harmony. This is a star that shines and almost blinds its viewer. Quite simply – a brilliant and unquestionable masterpiece.

Darien Police designate parking lot as safe internet exchange location
DARIEN — Visitors to the Darien Police Station will notice a new sign in the parking lot next to police headquarters. Positioned between two parking spaces is a sign now declaring the lot an Internet Purchase Exchange Location for people to trade off goods purchased and sold through Craigslist, eBay, Facebook and other online sites.
Often times, buying and selling goods on the Internet requires meeting up with strangers to make the purchase, something that runs obvious safety risks. Police got the idea of designating the parking lot as a safe exchange space through a Facebook post where they saw another police department doing it.
"E-commerce presents a lot of new opportunities, but challenges for law enforcement," said Duane Lovello, chief of police in Darien. "We want people to be secure taking advantage of it."
The sign designating the lot a safe exchange place went up on Oct. 12 and on Oct. 13, the station was added to the National Safe Trade location list. The parking lot is under 24 hour video surveillance and people from any community can meet there at any time, as to avoid having to give out home addresses and meeting there. Police said Darien may serve as a good halfway point for some parties, especially those coming from New York and meeting at a distinct location like the police station also cuts down the confusion of finding the right house in some cases.
While there was no specific incident in Darien that triggered the designation, Sgt. Jeremiah Marron of the Darien Police Department said they regularly hear of people falling victim to or encountering scams Internet purchases.
"Just yesterday [a friend called me] about a post from Craigslist and the would-be buyer was determined to be a scammer," Marron said.
Marron said that a common scam is for a potential buyer to send a seller a check for more than the amount of the item and then ask the seller to wire the leftover money from the purchase back to the buyer. The buyer will then deposit the check and wire the leftover money, only to find out afterwards that the check was fraudulent and the money they ended up wiring was their own funds.
More Information
Here is some advice from Darien police on how to safely buy and sell items from the internet.
Only use websites you are familiar with.
Never provide personal information over the internet.
Never purchase anything online using your credit card from a site that does not have an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer).
When taking photos, utilize the cut and paste method from a Word document. This will make it harder for someone to utilize GPS location programs to find where you live.
Take a photo of just the item you are selling. Items in the background can represent additional targets for the would‐be criminal.
Ask a lot of questions.
Don't go alone and show up early.
Finally, use the Darien Police Department "Internet Purchase Exchange Location" created to provide a safe place to make and document these types of transactions.
Having a safe place to meet someone in person will reduce the amount of online exchange of money required in these transactions. The fact that it's the parking lot of a police station will also hopefully reduce the likelihood of scams occurring.
"I would guess someone with criminal motivations would be hesitant to go to the police department," Lovello said.
Police did emphasize though that they will not be monitoring transactions occurring in the lot or tracking the number that occur (though surveillance footage from the lot could be used as evidence should a person get scammed there). No transactions are to occur in the lobby of the building, nor do police want other exchanges, such as custody trade offs, occurring in the lot. Users should also not conduct exchanges of illegal or dangerous goods (such as weapons) in the lot.
"First and foremost, it's about having a safe location [for online exchanges]," Marron said. "There's been incidents where people have been hurt or killed and we're eliminating those risks."
Those interested in using the police department for transactions should tell the other party to meet at the Darien Police Department at 25 Hecker Ave Darien, CT. A GPS should direct users directly to the building where they should go to the parking lot on the south side to the spots marked with the new sign.

A surprise marriage proposal at the 2018 Primetime Emmy Awards instantly became an awww moment and put the audience on the edge of their seats. Glenn Weiss walked away with an Emmy and his girlfriend walked away with an engagement ring.
Weiss won the Emmy on Monday night for directing the Oscars telecast and was giving the sort of speech from a non-celebrity that makes most viewers tune out when he said that his mother died two weeks ago, and she was fond of his girlfriend.
He then said during the 70th anniversary awards show, "You wonder why I don't want to call you my girlfriend? It's because I want to call you my wife."
U.S. & World
The star-studded crowd, realizing a proposal was on, whooped and cheered. Leslie Jones of "Saturday Night Live" stood with her mouth agape in surprise, as did the woman herself.
Weiss's girlfriend, who he called Jan without giving her last name, ran up on stage then Weiss took a knee and said he was giving her the same ring his father gave his mother 67 years ago.
Only then did he actually ask the question. She said yes.
The surprise proposal was one of many top moments from the 2018 Primetime Emmy Awards:
5. Henry Winkler, a.k.a. "The Fonz," won a supporting actor award for "Barry," four decades after gaining fame for his role on "Happy Days."
4. Regina King was without words during her Emmy Awards acceptance speech. King won her third Emmy as outstanding lead actress in a limited series for Netflix's "Seven Seconds."
3. Thandi Newton thanked "God" while accepting her award for supporting actress in a drama for "Westworld." "I don't even believe in God but I'm going to thank her tonight, she said.
2. Betty White took the stage to a standing ovation, and later she blew the audience a kiss as she reflected on her 70 year career. "It's incredible that I'm still in this business and you are still putting up with me," White said on stage. "The first lady of television" has eight Emmys to her name.
1. Weiss proposed during his acceptance speech and put his recently deceased mother's wedding ring on his girlfriend's finger.

Hi! This is Bill Phillips and I am here today with Scott Nelson to discuss the amazing success that he has had in the past 9 months. It has been nothing short of spectacular! So let's get into the interview!
Bill: Scott, thank you so much for taking time to sit down with me and tell me the story of the success that you have had in the last 9 months. I know that my readers are dying to know how you did it!
Scott: Thanks Bill! I sometimes have to pinch myself when I wake up in the morning that this is MY life that I am living!
Bill: Can you take me back to the moment that you changed things to start on the path to success?
Scott: Certainly! It all started back in September of 2018. I am really not sure where I received the information from, but I must have seen an ad or an email that talked about something called the Master Key Experience. I had been looking for something to help me change my mindset to help me experience success and provide me with the ability to live where I wanted and to travel where I wanted to, when I wanted! For some reason, the information about this course really resonated with me. So I decided to give it a try. WOW! I had no idea that there would be so much time and work involved, but as we progressed, Mark and his team explained that we have been conditioned to think a certain way that has NOT been serving us for years! And in my case DECADES! So it was going to take a lot of time, effort, and energy to change all of that conditioning. But I stuck with it, and indeed change did come, and along with it came the success that I had been craving!
Bill: That sounds amazing! What kind of success were you craving that you saw "manifesting" for you?
Scott: Bill, as you know I represent Wakaya Perfection, particularly their line of products that support the ketogenic lifestyle. My wife and I had seen phenomenal results not only in losing weight, but in how we felt and our overall health! I feel so blessed to have found Keto and I am never going back! Well, I was just telling a few people about our success with keto and the products, but once my inner blueprint changed and I decided I wanted to go BIG, opportunities and people just seemed to come out of the woodwork to help me achieve my goals! I had a friend of mine who had talked about helping me develop sales funnels and put a bunch of people into my business had forgot about that and was almost avoiding me before I started changing my blueprint. But once the new blueprint started taking hold, all of a sudden he was energized to help again an he was absolutely key in getting my business to EXPLODE! In a matter of 7 months, I went from almost nothing in my business to several hundred which propelled me to the rank of Diamond within the company and has given me the income that I needed to quit my job as a contractor and start traveling where I want to, not where my boss tells me to go! Although my wife certainly has a say in where we go! LOL!
Bill: That is AMAZING! And you think that just because you were changing how you think, your friend changed how he perceived this project and jumped on board? Pretty woo woo stuff, dont you think?
Scott: LOL! I used to think the same thing, but I have EXPERIENCED how transforming how we think and how we change our VIBRATIONS, changes how we are perceived by other people, and more importantly….God! He made this earth with energy at the very core of everything's makeup, so if we change our energy from negative to positive, we attract positive things! I don't claim to understand it all, I just know that it WORKS!
Bill: Well that is absolutely apparent with the success that you have achieved! What do you think is the greatest moment in the last year?
Scott: Well of course, helping all of those hundreds of people see incredible improvements in their health and financial situations is extremely gratifying, but the one moment that will always stick out to me was when my wife and I were in Las Vegas for the 2019 International Carubi Con where we were going to be recognized as a Diamond couple. My wife had hocked her wedding ring a few years ago when we were in debt and struggling in our marriage, so she had been wearing a cubic zirconia ring since then. My dream had been for years to finally be in a position that I could buy her a REAL diamond wedding ring! I will never forget when we went into Zales the day before we were to be recognized and I purchased her a 2.5 carat diamond solitaire ring! Her eyes literally sparkled like the diamond on her finger! She was a giddy as a school girl and couldn't stop giggling! And she is 52 yrs old! LOL! THAT was something that I had dreamed about for SOOOO long and to finally make it happen the day before we were recognized as Diamonds in Wakaya Perfection made it that much more special!
Bill: WOW! That is quite the story! So in closing, what would you tell our readers?
Scott: Make a decision! Make a decision to change what you are doing currently so that you can have the life that you have always dreamed of having because it CAN happen! Not changing what we are doing and expecting different results is the definition of INSANITY! So change what you are doing, and get the results that you want. But you have to execute those changes with ENTHUUUSSSIASM, or they will not happen!
Bill: Great advice! I think I need to talk to you about this Master Key Experience. Sounds like I could definitely benefit from it! Until next time, this is Bill Phillips. Thanks for reading!

We work very hard to give you 100% satisfaction and we give this guarantee because we are very confident in what we do. You even have your money back if you find yourself not happy with our service. We use the best method that is recommended by carpet manufacturers.
We use hot water extraction method
The hot water extraction method is the most effective because it requires the use of portable mounted units to get steam inside the carpet's base and remove all of the unwanted hazardous elements that like to 'live' in the fibres. This is crucial because you are exposed to the carpet every day and if these elements get in your system, they can cause some health issues. Regular vacuuming only gets rid of surface dirt which is why your carpet still needs to be professionally cleaned once a year. We don't use the just any cleaning solution because we make sure that they are environment friendly before applying them to your carpet. We do this because we don't want to cause your children or pets any harm and this is the concern we have for our customers.
You will be impressed
Another thing that makes us stand out is our reliability because we never fail to show up on time and according to schedule. We are very considerate in the time that you have given us even if your schedule would be very tight.

How To Spot Wholesome High Power Meals
Healthy food decisions could be tough, especially when we are surrounded by junk meals in all places we go: fast meals drive-thrus on each corner, treats at the office, social occasions with unhealthy foods, and the whole lot in between. But, with a bit of bit of apply, you may make wholesome meals decisions! This text goes to outline three steps to take subsequent time you are confronted with a food alternative.
An energy bar that have few energy is useless. I would like my vitality bar to be packed with sugar (fast vitality) and energy for long run". I don't need to fill my stomac with too much food, so I do not feel sick while operating, and I also want potasium, to help avoiding cramps. I've felt HORRIBLE for the previous 12 months. I stopped taking my statin, and in lower than every week, I really feel like one million bucks!
For those who eat one hundred calories worth of coconut oil, or a hundred energy of pasta, I am going to assure that you simply won't need as way more food after the coconut oil, as you do after consuming the pasta. It is an empirical, biological truth! I eat principally fatty animal proteins and veggies, wholesome fats like olive oil and a few grains, I train outdoors for an hour a day, take high quality vitamins, digestive enzymes, probiotics. I additionally take nootropics like Centrophenoxine, caffeine, and provigil every now and then and have stimulating hobbies/work.
Actually you might be simply repeating the Vegan religious feedback, and everyone knows that shpiel. Where are you developing with that idiotic pancreatic disease remark? Let me guess, the China Research? Additionally, until the flip of the 20th Century, Paleo man lived as long as every other human on Earth, Paleo man have been discovered who had been fairly previous, the typical age is about deaths in infancy.
You should hearken to your heart specialist. Loads of GP are overdiagnosed the issue because of the liability issues. For me, I do not go to an obese GP who tries to feed me with all the drugs because he can't also have a solution for his personal weight problems then how am i able to trust his advice. Until you reside in an enormous city. In that occasion, accept that you just stay in a place that the air will probably do extra hurt than a bit of snack consuming. That you are more prone to be attacked by a felony and disease will unfold faster the place you live too.

MP3 Rich Mix And The Posse - It's Not Our War
an anthem with a scathing anti-iraq war testimony, in the style of "tower of power"
2 MP3 Songs
POP: Power Pop, HIP HOP/RAP: White-Boy Rap
I analogize life with baseball. It was exciting and also scary to be eighteen and starting out in the major leagues of the band business, with the Tommy Dorsey band under the direction of Warren Covington. That was the "Tea For Two Cha Cha" band and if it wasn''t enough for a young kid to be traveling in fast company like that, add the allure of a hit record. And the whole experience was unbelievable!
My guardian angel knew that I was in over my head, though, and sent me Mary Johnston. Mary, a singer in her own right, was traveling with her husband, Lloyd, who was the lead alto player and manager of the band. She sat down next to me on the bus one night and explained that her agent, John O''Connor, also represented Johnny Long''s band, which needed a trombonist right away. Warren Covington gave his blessings to leave adding that I was welcome back on the band anytime. I took him up on that offer later on when he needed a trombone player for a weekend gig.
Besides Warren''s Dorsey band, I occupied bus seats with a variety of bands, including Tony Pastor, Les and Larry Elgart, The Lee Castle Jimmy Dorsey band, and Woody Herman.
I became a charter member of Clark Terry''s Big Bad Band, which was a co-venture that he led with altoist Phil Woods, and trombonist Melba Liston. That band was a collection of all-stars including guys like Zoot Sims, Al Cohn, Gene Quill, Randy Brecker, Jimmy Owens, Ron Carter, Grady Tate....you get the idea!
Later I split for Europe, winding up in the Netherlands, and wasn''t seen or heard from again for seven years. I married a Dutch lady who just happened to be a recording producer for The Philips-Fonogram Company. Our first co-production was a son who we
named Yasha.
After that I ultimately became a part of the recording scene in Holland and all over Europe participating in hundreds of sessions as a Trombonist, composer/arranger, and producer.
Since my return to the U.S.( L.A.), I''ve appeared with numerous bands and performers, including
Art Pepper, Don Ellis, Ray Charles, and Tito Puente including his Monterey Jazz Festival appearance.
In addition to being blessed with wonderful, encouraging, and supportive parents, Helen and Hy Pulin, I was also "adopted" by a musician that I believe was tops on his instrument, tenor saxophone, and an icon in the field of jazz.........the inimitable Billy Mitchell.. "B" took me under his wing, and over the next fourty years we became best of friends (I had the honor and pleasure to gig and record with him both stateside and abroad). His input, whether it pertained to music or life was plentiful and was always welcomed. I considered him my mentor and I was honored that he thought of me as his protege.(other Billy Mitchell protege''s include Charles McPherson, and Bobby Hutcherson). The Mitchell residence on Yale avenue in Rockville Centre, NY, was always a happy gathering place for musicians and other nice folk. Being "licensed" to "drop" the name Billy Mitchell over the years opened a lot of doors for me. I will always be greatly indebted to him and cherish the memory of both he and his wonderful wife Marge.

How To Get Cheap Car Insurance Premiums
LOS ANGELES, July 21, 2018 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Onlinequotesautoinsurance.com has released a new blog post that explains how to get cheaper car insurance premiums.
Drivers should know that auto insurance costs can be lowered. Since some rating factors are under the policyholder's control, that means that there are multiple strategies which can be applied. Also, it is recommended to shop online using free quotes provided by http://onlinequotesautoinsurance.com.
The following strategies will help lower the costs:
Get higher deductibles. Deductibles represent the sum of money the client must pay before the insurance policy kicks in. By requesting higher deductibles, the insurance costs will lower substantially. For example, increasing r deductible from $200 to a $1,000 deductible can save 40 percent or more. Before choosing a higher deductible, be sure to have enough money set aside to pay it when making a claim.
Drop unnecessary policies. Consider dropping collision and/or comprehensive coverages on older cars. If the vehicle is worth less than 10 times the premium, purchasing the coverage may not be cost-effective. Auto dealers and banks can tell the worth of cars.
Enroll in a defensive driving course. Insurance companies will provide a discount for those who complete an approved defensive driving course. Also, sometimes a driver can reduce the number of points he or she has on his or her license by taking a defensive driving, accident prevention or other similar courses. Ask the insurance company about this discount.
Ask for low mileage discount. Some companies offer discounts to motorists who drive a lower than the average number of miles per year. Low mileage discounts can also apply to drivers who carpool to work.
Ask for all available discounts. Clients should ask the company for a list with discounts and then check for how many they qualify for.
"All drivers want to pay less on auto insurance. But in order to get cheaper coverage, they must use certain strategies. Check more tips on our website" said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.
Onlinequotesautoinsurance.com is an online provider of life, home, health, and auto insurance quotes.

Second annual Celebrity Chef Showdown
The second annual Celebrity Chef Showdown featured head chefs from the Brakemen Foundation and the Calgary Petroleum Club facing off in a live cooking competition on Jan. 28. Similar to an episode of MasterChef, the chefs have 45 minutes to cook a three-course meal for judges Dan Clapson, Jennifer Hamilton, and Rob Cote. The lively and interactive audience enjoyed watching and talking with the chefs as they created their meals before the clock stopped. The showdown, held at the Calgary Petroleum Club, raised approximately $5,000 for the organization Brown Bagging for Calgary's Kids.

Eric Gunnerson is creating a list of his Seven Deadly Sins of Programmers. Here's my list:
That's off the top of my head. I think I could come up with a better list if I spent some more time to think on it.

Yeah, new year, new looks, and the best part:
* Apart from inserting one single
span on every page, no lines of markup has been altered.
* About 75% of the stylesheet from the old page has been reused as-is.
Hail the infinite power of CSS[Cascading Style Sheets]. And don't forget to tell me if you hate this, love this, or if anything looks shite (read: if you find bugs).
*Update:* I've made a screenshot of the old design "available for comparison":http://virtuelvis.com/download/144/old.png.
*Update:* I forgot this to add that when I designed this, I specifically had the beautiful "Bitstream Vera fonts":http://www.gnome.org/fonts/ in mind. Install them and see the subtle, but important difference.
*Update:* "Someone":http://www.lofotenmoose.info/ wanted more fanciness at the bottom of the page.

Administrator wrote:I'm always intrigued by these games that are mechanically minimalistic, but use basic gameplay to tell a compelling story. I'm not an expert on these sorts of games, but I've seen a couple via streamers (RetroPrincess' stream of The Bunker immediately comes to mind), and these sorts of games can be amazing. I think that indie developers can take bigger risks and wade into more controversial subject matter than the bigger companies can touch, and these story-telling sorts of games are an arena where indie studios can shine.
Yeah, it's a really interesting subject, since it really leans on how gaming itself is just one element of a video game, much like audio-visual presentation, or narrative. You can have a video game like Tetris, which is minimal on the latter two, but 100% focused on the game aspect, or ones like the Telltale Walking Dead games, which have very limited gameplay, but heavy cinematic and narrative elements. In between you can find things like RPGs, which can have complex gameplay and complex narrative. And all of these elements can tie together differently, too.
Some games like Undertale really heavily link their narrative to gameplay, while others, say Metal Gear Solid, puts it more in cinematics. Still others like the Talos Principle do neither, and just throw it into a bunch of audio and text logs.
What's really interesting about the minimal gameplay games is seeing just how they deploy the game aspect. Have they justified telling their story in this medium? With the Walking Dead games, for example, you are part of this ongoing story, told in a very linear and cinematic way, and your gameplay is responding to people in conversations, and making choices that could have consequences. Though the game has to end up in the same place no matter the choices, it does remember the things you do, and they affect how people treat your character. I found that minimum gameplay really helped to engage me in the story, since it tied me to the consequences in the way that a movie can't. When you watch a horror movie, it's easy to detach yourself from the characters, but the Walking Dead games invest you by their nature.
Unfortunately a lot of people still misunderstand this, and only buy games for the game aspect, with everything else being a perk. Admittedly, the naming doesn't help, since a game is a game, so you would expect gameplay focus. In reality, though, video gaming is perhaps the most complex medium out there, and gaming is just a part of it.
My interest level is very high, and I've added this to my "list of games to someday explore if I ever have free time again".
This is one of the only downsides of being a game developer. Don't get me wrong, I desperately love what I'm doing, but whenever I get free time, I need to spend it away from the monitors and keyboard, because I can only spend so many hours a day sitting in a chair and wailing on keys. There are so many incredible, deserving indie games out there that I really should be playing, but I just don't have the opportunity to experience them at this stage in OC's development.
I mostly get to do my gaming during breaks from school, myself. Unless it's the Binding of Isaac, which at this point is just sorta zen, and I use it to focus on other things, haha. I guess the bright side of having to wait is that, in the mean time, all of these interesting games will pile up, and you'll have a lot to go through once you have the time.

My Project: 365 Creative Writing Prompts
Day 136: Halley and the geese
Last week Monday I came home and was greeted by this sight:
Even Halley has a hard time dealing with the noise. She was sitting on the ledge, watching the men at work, and her eyes were clearly asking … what are they doing?
Then on Saturday, a different kind of inspector and his entourage came to take a look at the works. I heard a strange noise, went to take a look and there they were ... five Canadian geese, casually taking a stroll along the construction site.

My headaches where all along the sides of my head – I had grinded down my teeth to the point my bite was over-extended. I had my teeth fixed by Dr. Westersund. It was a really cool experience. – Chris
My headaches would typically start in my neck and jaw, run into my shoulders and up the back of my neck. Hours, days, I would wake up in the middle of the night. I'm an investment adviser – its a stressful job to begin with – to get through the day I would keep a pocket full of pain killers. One day I said OK, lets go for it, lets fix this — now its entirely different. I'm very happy. – Pat

Vero Beach Worker's Compensation Lawyers
What is Worker's Compensation?
Worker's Compensation is a form of insurance that you may be able to receive if you received an injury on the job. However, it is notorious for insurance companies and employers to deny you coverage of this insurance.
Do you have a claim?
If you have been injured on the job, click here for a Free Case Evaluation. Our team can guide you through the process of determining the claim and what steps you should take subsequent to an injury.
What are the requirements?
When injured on the job, you should check to see if your claim is within the requirements of a worker's compensation claim. For a possibility to even exist, your employer must carry worker's compensation insurance. The requirement to file the claim is within two years of the accident in the State of Florida.
What type of accident qualifies?
Florida Statute 440 states that the injury "must specifically occur as the result of an accident in the normal course of employment." This means that you are likely to have a claim if injured while performing your normal job duties. However, if the injury occurred during a break or a lunch hour, then it is questionable if your accident qualifies.
Six Most Common Work Related Injuries
- Overexertion Injuries which occur when an awkward motion is made, such as typing, lifting, carrying, or throwing and include 25% of accidents
- Falls on the Same Level include slip and falls, stump falls, or a forced rotation fall. These falls happen on the same level and include 16% of accidents.
- Falls to a Lower Level include falling as a result of a collapsing structure or equipment or falling through a surface of existed opening. These types of falls include 9% of accidents.
- Struck by Object or Equipment occur when an individual is injured as a result of the impact between the object and the individual. These injuries include 8.9% of accidents.
- Other Exertions or Bodily Reactions happen when your body responds to some type of object and in response engages in strenuous activities. These types of accidents consist of 7.2% of accidents.
- Slip or Trip without a Fall take place when an individual slips or trips and the individual does not fall. These types of injuries are 3.6% of accidents.
Employment Injury Statistics
Unfortunately, on the job accidents are very common and occur daily. In fact, in 2013, over 4,400 workers died during the course of their employment. Even more startling, is that over 3.3M people are victims of work related injuries in the United States. According to the State of Florida, in 2016 over 55,000 workers recovered compensation for their on the job injuries.
Contact a Personal Injury Attorney
An experienced Personal Injury Attorney can help you determine if you have a worker's compensation claim. Our firm has been serving the residents of Indian River County for over the past 30 years. Don't wait to find out if you are eligible for worker's compensation benefits. Call our offices today.

Academic All-American in the SOD!
Louisiana Tech senior forward Kathryn Sloan has received numerous awards during her stellar four-year career on the soccer field and in the classroom, but the honor she received on Tuesday trumps them all.
In an announcement made by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA), Sloan was selected as the 2016 Academic All-America of the Year for Division I Women's Soccer.
A communication arts and design major with a perfect 4.0 grade point average, Sloan becomes the first student-athlete in LA Tech history to receive this prestigious honor. She was a third team CoSIDA Academic All-America selection last year.
The Kansas City, Missouri native has also been a three-time recipient of the Commissioner's Academic Medal as well as a three-time C-USA All-Academic First Team honoree.
"Katie Sloan has exemplified what we want our student-athletes to be during her four years at Louisiana Tech," athletics director Tommy McClelland said. "She is one of 14 student-athletes in Louisiana Tech history to be named an academic All-American and just the third to earn the honor multiple times. That's impressive enough in its own right.
"However, to be named the 2016 CoSIDA Academic All-America of the Year for Division I women's soccer is an unbelievable honor. We are so proud of Katie and all of her incredible accomplishments on and off the field."
The striker has been equally as impressive on the pitch during her four years as a Lady Techster. She has helped compile an overall record of 48-30-6 while also leading the team to three straight C-USA Tournament appearances despite being picked each year in the preseason to finish towards the bottom of the league.
"Being a great college athlete and a great student takes an immense amount of effort," said Tom Futrell, Assistant Professor of Design and Sloan's academic advisor. "It's not often you see someone who has the ability and desire to succeed in both. Everyone knows that on the field Katie is an all-conference powerhouse; however, in the classroom she's even better. During her time at the School of Design, Katie has never missed a class, never complained about a deadline and never caved under pressure. Katie is the consummate student-athlete. I know the future is bright for her."
Sloan has always been more proud of the team's accomplishments rather than her own which there are a bunch. Her name is littered throughout the LA Tech record book. She is the Lady Techsters' all-time career leader in almost every statistical category – points (89), goals (36), shots (231), shots on goal (120) and game-winning goals (13).
"What an amazing achievement and well deserved," head coach Kevin Sherry said. "The amount of determination, focus, sacrifice and hard work needed to become one of the best in your 'field' are so high that most people shy away from even attempting to be the best. Katie is a great example to others that good things do happen if you are willing to put the work in and make the sacrifices needed."
She led the team in scoring every season, including this past year when she became the first Lady Techster to be named First Team All-Conference USA (was a second team honoree in previous two seasons) after registering nine goals and six assists for a total of 24 points, all ranking in the top three in the league.
Sloan becomes the first LA Tech student-athlete to ever be selected as the Academic All-America of the Year and the first in Conference USA since 2006.

Appetite for Self-Destruction
Oprah's OWN drew solid ratings for the premiere of its Lindsay Lohan docuseries. Are we watching for the wrong reasons?
The most honest words uttered in the debut of Lindsay, the new and deeply problematic docuseries about the troubled actress, came not from the maniacally self-absorbed Lohan or the show's benefactor, Oprah Winfrey. Rather, they came from a fan on the street who was glibly effusive when asked to speak on behalf of the people. "I'm a big fan of Lindsay Lohan," he said with a happy grin on his face, "both as an actress and as a media sensation." Isn't it just so entertaining when a young woman is so misguided and bent on destruction that she lands in rehab for a sixth time? As a culture we seem to value Lohan, and countless women before her, as little more than cheap spectacle, marveling at how far former good girls can fall from our manufactured pedestals.
The show was not without its odd voyeuristic pleasures. Show business has never looked so unglamorous as when Lohan's smartly dressed assistant, whose former bosses range from Sean Astin to Prince, was tasked with packing up her floor-to-ceiling-stuffed hotel room. Earlier, Lohan's storage unit of expensive junk was the size of an abandoned airplane hangar. I'm convinced that if this woman jettisoned 95 percent of her belongings and spent an anonymous year reading novels and going to meetings, she might just have a shot at enjoying her 30s. Instead she's starring on a reality series whose viewers spent an inordinate amount of Twitter bandwidth snickering about the amount of side boob she exposed during the hour.
On the same weekend of the Lindsay premiere, news broke that Charlie Sheen had reportedly delayed production by failing to show up on his show Anger Management. Despite his breathtakingly insane history and smug lack of contrition, an ever-hopeful FX and Lionsgate had already ordered 90 episodes after the first season. Meanwhile, Justin Bieber stomps around the planet in his ridiculous trucker hat, racking up charges of vandalism and a DUI, and is photographed coming out of a Brazilian brothel. But boys will be boys, so their crimes and misdemeanors remain a sideshow rather than the main event.
But we eat our girls alive, gleefully scandalized by their gradual ruin. It's a familiar career trajectory: We hold up a pretty thing like Miley Cyrus or Selena Gomez when they're young, delighting in their virginal innocence. Then we accuse our little ladies of turning into tramps as we leer at them in wet T-shirts or lacy bras in magazines, movies, or videos. From there it's too often a stone's throw to Britney Spears shaving her head or Amanda Bynes allegedly setting a fire in some stranger's driveway — and the shocking realization that these girls have been driven so mad by their crass fame that they very well might kill themselves. Oh, the nauseatingly insincere headlines that would follow about the tragedy of misspent youth and wasted talent.
At the beginning of Lindsay's debut, Oprah told Lohan that her intention was pure and she wanted her to win: "I'm only interested in what is the truth." And yet the breathless teaser for the series delights in hints of an unreliable Lohan falling off the wagon. Oprah can say she's hoping for a win all she wants, but the truth is that she — along with the rest of us — is helping to ensure Lohan's defeat by continuing to treat her disturbing life as entertainment.

Because I'm a crazy cat lady! Look at their little faces!
Baby Sleep
This app has been very useful if I've needed a hand getting Aoife to sleep. Her favourite noise appears to be the washing machine sound. Useful when I have no washing to put into the washing machine.
Frozen Free Fall
My honey originally downloaded this game on his xbox and then after watching him play I downloaded it on my phone instead. I've become a little obsessed with it truthfully.
My Fitness Pal
It's time to get into shape after having Aoife! Along with regular exercise, I've started tracking what I eat. I love barcode scanning stuff.
My honey wants us to appear on Pointless and so we downloaded the app to test our Pointless knowledge. So far I've only managed to get a handful of Pointless answers so more training is needed!
I love using Groupon for the cheap deals. I've used it for so many different items for myself and others. It's easy to just throw my money at this app.

If this is music for the mature set, why were Mozart, Chopin, Beethoven and Liszt so young? Were they unpopular with their peers? Was it only aged matrons throwing themselves at the superstars on tour? Those are rhetorical questions.

So what's the deal then. Why is the audience aging and dwindling? An astute statistician would guess that there was something peculiar about the audience population, something either they lack that the newer audiences have, or something they have that the newer audiences lack, and it is perhaps something that can be acquired since, as your commenter confesses, it can be gained with some effort by age 50.

My guess is the missing ingredient is musical training. The aged audience all had childhood experience in producing music and experience in the emersive experience of live music; the pop-demographic only has experience consuming music, and even there, primarily consuming the shadow of sound engraved on bits of plastic, rarely if ever performed 'live' and primarily in that case not delivered live to their bodies but mediated by various sorts of electronic sound systems.

So this begs for some experimentation :) We need to take some youngsters, the younger the better so as to match the typical church-goer parade-attending experience of the WWII generation, and expose them to real live music on a regular (weekly or more) basis, and create situations where they are also able to take their first safe baby steps in playing these acoustic instruments and playing the musical language of the classical tradition.

My hypothesis is these kids will grow to better appreciate what goes into a live symphony show, better notice when players give astounding performances and astounding interpretations, better value the superior acoustics of professional grade instruments played by professional grade players in professional grade architecture.mrGhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060605.post-2038823233640900482013-02-03T16:27:45.809+00:002013-02-03T16:27:45.809+00:00Karl Haas - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zINDMdE...Karl Haas - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zINDMdEfGjQ

In my entire schooling up to age 18 I had maybe one-two terms in which it was presented to the class. I lived in an Australian rural town where I was a day away from a concert hall, and there were no radio stations with classical music, no library with music to borrow. I was barely aware of what I might be missing out on.

Rewind to two years earlier to when I'd started having piano lessons with a rather aged yet violent nun in the convent up the road. I was being introduced to music by Mendelssohn, Purcell, Beethoven and others that I'd never heard in any form (and the way she banged out their melodies with one hand, I wasn't getting much more familiar with them). The lessons stopped after a short period when she retired and there were no alternate teachers.

I don't remember hearing any Chopin, any Mozart until I was at university and bought a few cheap cassettes out of curiosity for self-education. Once the door was opened, I was completely intoxicated. I was getting exposed to a lot more than classical music but little of it stuck in the same way. I'm a much more informed appreciator of popular music because of what I know about classical forms, and have never become mired in the music of my youth.

I know many adults regret not learning an instrument when they were younger. I'm sad that even though I knew I wanted them when I was a child that the resources were not there, or only barely. I've stuck to the piano despite that and can satisfy myself with moderately difficult works (I'm working on a Chopin etude, ballade and the Fantasie-Polonaise right now) but know I will never catch up the physical and auditory dexterity I may have gained early on.

The world has changed enormously since then. Any kid living in that town will have access via the internet at least to a vast trove of classical repertoire. But are they aware of it? If they don't have a parent or teacher to act as a guide, to at least switch the light open and leave the door ajar then there is an equally vast trove of kitten videos for them to distract them.

There was a brief period when I listened to classical music stations, but to be quite honest the presenters bored the living daylights out of me. Thirty years later I'm afraid that most of them still do. Is there a Karl Haas for the 21st century?Mikehttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8060605.post-35137063332339211822013-02-03T10:29:20.427+00:002013-02-03T10:29:20.427+00:00The sub-heading on that 1961 Casals LP is worth sp...The sub-heading on that 1961 Casals LP is worth spelling-out -

Today Colorado attorney general John Suthers took steps to prosecute those who might try to take advantage of homeowners in foreclosure.
The attorney general filed lawsuits against three businesses accused of defrauding homeowners in Denver, Boulder and Broomfield through "deceptive foreclosure rescue schemes."
According to the complaints filed in Denver District Court:
"Consumers facing foreclosure were approached by the defendants with a proposal to save their homes.The defendants promised to use the equity in the homes to halt the foreclosures and, in some cases, to make improvements to the properties. Homeowners were instructed to transfer title to their properties to investors arranged by defendants, who would then lease the properties back to the original homeowner with an option to repurchase their homes. The complaints allege that many homeowners were subsequently evicted and that none of them were ever able to exercise their repurchase options. All of the equity in their homes was lost to the defendants."

Network of Ethnographic Theory (NET)
To stay updated with NET's activities and upcoming events please visit our blog.
The Network for Ethnographic Theory (NET) is a space in which we can collectively think about and experiment with new ways of conceptualizing ethnographic engagement. In particular, our objective is to explore the politics and practices of ethnographic knowing. We seek insights into the relation between the practical partiality in knowing in ethnography and theory's presupposition of totality. We are interested in the experiences, lived, and in our notes and photographs and recordings, that are set aside because of their very partialness—perhaps not processable through the norms of academic representation—but that call into relief our theoretical frames.
At the NET we wish to rely on an enthusiasm of engagement, and push ahead, not for the sake of newness, but for the sake of need, with different ways of configuring how we know. What do people—indigenous, foreign and familial, interlocutors etc.—know? How do we know that—and how do we account for what remains unknown? At the heart of the NET is an openness of dialogue and participation, where fragmentary and unfinished thoughts get air to breathe. Across our diverse conditions of privilege and disadvantage (shaped by race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexuality, ability, class, and professional position), together we seek ways in engaging with the limits and constraints set by conventions of ethnographic representation and academic knowledge production as we practice radical reflexivity.
In an academic environment entangled with politico-economic regimes that subscribe to the historical reproduction of multiple forms of inequality, and in a world in which truth, fakeness, and knowledge are all contested, we support a space in which to think about how we think, and to reconsider how we know. We seek to let this approach lead us to re(de)fine the intellectual and political project of theorization based on ethnography.
More concretely, our aims are, first, to increase the presence and activity of NET as a site of engagement with a radically reflexive debate about the meaning of theory-building through ethnography both from centers and margins. Second, to become a central and reliable node in the exchange and circulation of literature, events and other information regarding critical reflections about anthropological knowledge production in ethnographic fieldwork, writing, publishing, and teaching. We will do so via our mailing list, of course, but also establish the Network's blog as a space for guest posts. Besides NET's EASA panels and workshops we organize, we welcome your initiatives that foster our collective thinking. On our blog you will find current NET news.
NET was founded in September 2014 with the aim to promote intellectual collaboration around the heuristic of ethnographic theory. While the initiative of the Network wholly appreciates the intellectual impetus of its founders, we are not fastened to the past. In summer 2018, the NET decided to leave behind any affiliation, formal and informal, with those people involved with the hierarchies of HAU. This is due, not only to recent ethical issues at HAU, but with the current strength of the NET to stand apart, and for ourselves. We move forward with new goals, and openness, transparency, inclusiveness, and respect for all involved in the NET. We are excited for the future, and bring intellectual curiosity and ambition to our shared project of opening up new theoretical and ethnographic spaces within anthropology.

Today we welcome Becky Villarel,
Born in Dallas, Texas to missionary parents.
"As the fourth of five children I was often left to my own devices to entertain myself. So inventing new stories became my passion at a very early age where I would create small books out of any scraps of paper I could find around the house.
"For twenty years I taught in the Dallas Independent School District. For the past ten years I have been completing family research on my mother's and father's families. The grandmother of two I enjoy writing and spending time with my family.
"As an elementary teacher and ten-year veteran of genealogy, I have been able to enjoy not only working with children but finding out about my family history.
One of the books you wrote, Gianna the Great, is an interesting book. Tells us about it.
