We continually get asked if we make custom shadow boxes and other projects. The answer is "yes we do". Not just shadow boxes, but other projects as well. Just recently we finished a Command Board for Naval Recruiting District New England in Boston. Although Custom projects do take more time they are worth the wait. This Command board is just a little over 8′ by 4′ oak plywood trimmed out with solid cherry ant solid cherry slide in picture frames with plexiglass fronts. The Navy Seal and the NRD New England logo are 3D solid wood images that were hand painted. and the lettering is 1.8″ blue acrylic. NRD New England was ecstatic about the board when they picked it up and are currently considering us to make an Awards board for them as well.

The Big Idea: Axie Oh
September 14, 2017 John Scalzi7 Comments
From traded video tapes to the printed word, author Axie Oh's debut novel Rebel Seoul has had quite the journey. Here she is to tell you how it all came together.
AXIE OH:
The "Big Idea" for Rebel Seoul was super soldiers, specifically female super soldiers, but let's go back to the beginning.
In 2001, I became addicted to Cartoon Network's Toonami, a television programming block that brought English dubbed anime into the West. The block ran late at night in what was called the Midnight Run. So, as an 11-year-old schoolgirl with reasonable parents, I had to set a timer to record the shows on the VCR. To make it easier, my friends and I would take turns recording the shows and would meet on the weekends to exchange tapes like some sort of grade school smuggling ring.
My two favorite shows were Sailor Moon and Mobile Suit Gundam Wing. Though both anime, these shows were in vastly different genres. Sailor Moon, about a Tokyo schoolgirl with magical powers, was in the "magical girl" genre, which as the name suggests, featured girls with magical powers, while Mobile Suit Gundam Wing, about young men who pilot giant robots called Gundams, was in the "mecha" genre, which focused primarily on robots and elements of science fiction.
I equally loved both of these shows. In Sailor Moon, I found an adventure story with an all female cast, a story of romance with a dashing boy who oftentimes was in distress, and a heroine to believe in, to see myself in (she was blonde, but she was Asian!) and to love with a fangirl's unwavering devotion. In Gundam Wing, I found an intelligent war story of rebellion and sacrifice that moved me to the core, a cast of beautiful boys to swoon over (be still my adolescent heart!) and some amazing visual eye candy in the Gundams themselves – massive robots blowing up stuff Is. The. Shit.
This was the beginning of my love, not only for anime, but for media in all its forms: TV shows, films, video games, Korean dramas, K-pop, comics, and of course, books.
Rebel Seoul is the second book I've ever completed, and my debut novel. Before Rebel Seoul, I'd written a young adult fantasy, as well as several short stories and flash pieces, some of which can be found in obscure pockets of the Internet.
The inspiration for Rebel Seoul came from a dream. In the dream, a girl stood at the top of the tallest building in Seoul, South Korea, listening to a song as it drifted through the wind. The girl was crying. Somehow I knew she had never heard a song before. It made me think, what sort of person would have never heard a song before?
Answer: A government experiment, obviously.
I then built a world and story and characters around this dream image (or gif, really) that stayed with me through each revision of the novel, although it never made it into the novel itself. I imagine it's in the prologue before the first scene. The government experiment became a super soldier project called "The Amaterasu Project," where girls were transformed into weapons with codenames: "Ama" for girls with psychic and mental abilities, "Tera" for girls with physical abilities like increased strength and quick reflexes and "Su" for girls with both physical and mental abilities. I wanted to make the idea "big," so I added giant robots.
So there I was, the big idea: female super soldiers piloting giant robots!
In a way, I feel like I combined those two anime I loved when I was a child. The girls were now the pilots saving a war-torn world.
As a 1st gen Korean American growing up in the U.S., I didn't have a lot of mirrors in popular media. Discovering Toonami and watching these shows was one of the first times I ever saw people like me – beautiful, strong, courageous people – as heroes. Perhaps this is another big idea, or perhaps this is the big idea, that I wanted to write a book where my 11-year-old self could be the hero.

1st gen Asian American writer. Super soldiers. Big weapons. Damn, punching all my buttons….
(Hm…wonder if there's potential for a stage adaptation…)
Looks like fun! (adds to TBR…)
clancyweeksblog says:
I would totally pay to see this movie if it ever made it to the big screen!
jick says:
There's something deeply subversive (or maybe strangely oblivious) about staging a secret government program in Seoul and then naming it after Amaterasu, a Goddess in Japanese creation myth. That's going to push some people's buttons! >_<
Whoops! My finger slipped and I ordered this book for our teen area at the library. And then it slipped again and I ordered it for my personal collection.
I can't believe they put those two buttons right next to each other. How irresponsible.
Kaysper says:
Well. That sounds amazing, and frankly it had me at "Toonami" and "Sailor Moon."

A really big idea indeed! What's not to like?

Family of Joe Hunt started this petition to Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr.
In 1988, one true crime story dominated the news cycle: The Billionaire Boys Club.
Three decades later, the story has faded from the tabloids, but it remains the painful present-day reality of club leader Joe Hunt, who remains in prison, serving a sentence of life without possibility of parole for a murder he maintains that he did not commit.
Hunt readily admits to financial misdeeds — he became the unwitting head of a ponzi scheme when a con man named Ron Levin bilked him out of a half million of his investors' dollars, leaving Joe holding the bag. The 23-year-old Hunt naively overextended himself when he took Levin at his word that he would fund a large commodities investment intended to repay investors with a handsome profit. Instead, Levin assured Hunt he could proceed with a purchase made with nonexistent funds. That's when law enforcement got involved.
Soon after, Levin, who was out on bail and facing an FBI investigation for grand theft and fraud, went missing. In response to police inquiries, the rich kids of the Billionaire Boys club directed attention away from themselves and pointed to Joe, the scholarship kid. Prosecutors decided to charge Joe with Levin's murder, even with no body and no forensic evidence.
In addition to defending their client, Joe's lawyers were burdened with the task of filing a judicial misconduct motion for mistrial after Judge Laurence Rittenband, well known as a "prosecutor's judge," slapped one member of the defense team with a gag order, leaving a workload meant to be divided among two lawyers to just one.
Ultimately, Hunt's media notoriety (which extended to a fictionalized 1980s made-for-TV movie and a 2018 version of his story starring Kevin Spacey) worked against him in the trial, and he was sentenced to life without possibility of parole — which many observers characterized as an unjust sentence, especially in a murder case with no physical evidence — not even a body. Hunt's sentence is an anomaly, not comparable to those of his fellow Boys Club members or even far more notorious criminals. For example, even the psychopathic cult leader Charles Manson was granted several opportunities to go before a parole board for his role in multiple murders. Yet Hunt has has never been granted the right to a parole board hearing.
"During the period of rehabilitation the person shall live an honest and upright life, shall conduct himself or herself with sobriety and industry, shall exhibit a good moral character, and shall conform to and obey the laws of the land."
Joe is asking only that the Governor change his sentence to life WITH the possibility of parole. Joe is simply seeking the opportunity many in his same position have been granted: a chance to go before a parole board and plead his case.
It's testimonies like these — 47 in all are included with his application — that form the last remaining basis for Hunt's hope of release.
"I do hope that attention is drawn to the fight of people who have life without the possibility of parole," Hunt said of the website his family has created to share information about his campaign for release, FreeJoeHunt.com.

Birmingham's Try it Raw Cafe Offers All-Organic, Mostly Raw, Entirely Delicious Foods and Drinks
BY HONEY MURRAY
LBN Community Series
On Tuesday morning, while on her way to work at 7 a.m., Angela Doman realized she'd forgotten her lunch.
"Rather than stop and get junk food, I'm so glad that Try It Raw is here," she said as she sipped a frothy green smoothie while waiting for her favorite to-go lunch: nachos that are made with cabbage chips, walnut meat, cashew cheese, avocado, "and all sorts of goodness."
MICHAEL SEVERANCE
OWNER, TRY IT RAW
"It's junk food that's not actually junk food!" she smiles.
Doman, who has been a regular customer since Try It Raw opened in 2012, eats mostly a vegetarian diet.
"They are super-accommodating," Doman adds. "There was a point a few years ago when I couldn't eat anything solid, and Michael (the owner) would blend up a bunch of protein-packed, natural drinks for me."
"Being flexible – and able to give people what they specifically want and need – is one of the best things about running Try It Raw," says Michael Severance who, with his wife, Natalia Castro, and Marc Dobaczewski opened the unique, organic, vegan café on Maple Road in Birmingham.
"We have a customer from Flint who comes down every week to get her own custom salad and special smoothie," Severance says. "And once, a visitor in town fell in love with our food and had the tacos, nachos, and burgers that she loved shipped – at a very high cost – to her home in Indiana!"
"Sometimes a customer will say, 'I can only eat this or that kind of dressing. Can you make it?' It makes you feel good to be able to do it, and sometimes what you create is so good that it ends up on the regular menu!"
"I've always been a very food-oriented person," Severance shares, "and into all kinds of eating – especially healthy eating."
In his late twenties, while working with Dobaczewski as a sushi chef at Clawson's Noble Fish, Severance started making raw food at home.
"I think the first thing I made was a meatloaf out of walnuts," he recalls.
"Once, a visitor in town fell in love with our food and had the tacos, nachos, and burgers that she loved shipped – at a very high cost – to her home in Indiana!"
He was also playing in a band and considering a career in teaching.
"Even with lots of interests and ideas, nothing was going anywhere," says Severance. "My wife realized I needed to choose a direction and focus on it, so we took a vacation to Miami to think things through."
While there, they visited a tiny, raw foods restaurant.
"We loved it, and decided to open one, ourselves, in Birmingham. We came home, walked around the streets of Birmingham, and found this little place."
Seven month later, they were open.
Severance continues to remain flexible, adding new items and services – like the two or three types of soups he now serves every day.
"I had to adapt my concept of 'raw' to include something that my customers really want, and they are enjoying our daily soups," he says, as he adds freshly chopped onion and squash to his steaming, commercial Insta-Pot.
"This squash soup is extremely popular, and we'll be serving green lentil soup with lemon, dill, and turnips, too. Sometimes, when my staff sees me walking towards them, they know I'll be saying, 'Chop squash, guys!'"
Other currently popular menu items include Caesar salad with cashew dressing, collard green-leaf tacos, avocado toast, the monkey milkshake (with bananas, dates, almonds, cinnamon), and a special for each day of the week: kelp noodles on Monday, lasagna on Tuesday, pizza on Wednesday, burger classic on Thursday, beet "rye bread" Rueben on Friday, Birminghamburger on Saturday, veggie sandwich on Sunday (though exact menu is subject to varying – and to selling out).
Smoothies, juices and sweet treats are also available.
"Celery juice is a big seller right now'" says Severance, "as well as our blend of celery, cucumber, kale, cilantro, lemon, and ginger."
"Though I don't get elaborate with desserts," he says, "the desserts I do have, people like a lot — like our gluten-free cinnamon rolls and our cashew-based chocolate-banana cheesecake. We have a cheesecake every day."
Try It Raw Café also accommodates deliveries and, with Birmingham's traffic-packed Maple Road, they're very willing to make a curbside (or behind-the-building), hand-to-hand lunch delivery.
"That's another thing I love about having this business," Severance shares. "We can always do new and different things to meet people's needs!"
To meet their own needs for fresh produce and other supplies, Try It Raw uses some of this area's most trusted wholesalers.
"Our organic produce, year-round, comes mainly from B & B Organics, and Cinzori Farms provides our spring and summer stock. Our packaging and disposable goods, of compostable materials, are from Greensafe Products in Detroit.
"And," Severance continues, "you'll taste the difference in our cold-pressed juices because we use a Norwalk juicer."
In addition to providing his home-grown menu (which is 100% gluten-free, with no cross-contamination), Severance enjoys being part of his community. He will be giving a presentation at Birmingham's Baldwin Public Library on Thursday, January 31, from 7-8 p.m. titled, "Eating Healthy with Try It Raw."
"I will always remain flexible," says Severance, "and looking to provide a service people need that maybe no one else is doing. We find where we fit and say, 'I can try it! I can do it.'"

The Poison of Gossip
Home › Articles › Bishop Barron › The Poison of Gossip
Just last week, I was at St. Joseph Abbey in Covington, LA, not far from New Orleans. I was there to address about thirty Benedictine abbots from around the country who had gathered for some days of reflection and retreat. Covering the walls of the abbey church and the refectory of the St. Joseph monastery are marvelous paintings executed by Fr. Gregory de Wit, a monk of Mont César in Belgium, who worked for many years in our country at both St. Meinrad in Indiana and at St. Joseph's before he passed away in 1978. I have long admired his very distinctive, quirky, and theologically informed art. In the apse of the abbey church, de Wit depicted a series of magnificent winged angels who hover over images of the seven deadly sins, conveying the profound truth that the right worship of God overcomes our spiritual dysfunction. But a novelty of de Wit's painted program is that he added an eighth deadly sin that he felt was particularly destructive within a monastery—namely, gossiping.
He was right about monasteries, of course, but I would say he would have been right about pretty much any type of human community: family, school, workplace, parish, etc. Gossip is poison. Period. De Wit's painting prophetically anticipated the magisterium of our present pope, who has often made gossip the object of particular opprobrium. Listen to this from a recent discourse of Francis: "Please, brothers and sisters, let's try not to gossip. Gossip is a plague worse than COVID. Worse! Let's make a big effort. No gossiping!" And lest we somehow missed the point, he continued, "The Devil is the biggest gossiper." This last remark is not just colorful rhetoric, for the pope well knows that the devil's two principal names in the New Testament are diabolos (the scatterer) and Satanas (the accuser). I cannot think of a better characterization of what gossip does and what it essentially is.
Not long ago, a friend sent me a YouTube video of a talk by Dave Ramsey, a business and finance consultant. With the vehemence of Pope Francis, Ramsey spoke out against gossip in the workplace, specifying that he has a no tolerance policy in regard to the practice. Helpfully, he defined gossip as follows: discussing anything negative with someone who can't solve the problem. To make things a bit more concrete, a person in your organization would be gossiping if he were grousing about IT issues with a colleague who had no competence or authority to resolve IT matters. Or someone would be gossiping if she expressed anger at her boss to people down the chain of command who were in absolutely no position to respond constructively to her criticism. Ramsey provides a pointed example from his own experience. He recounts that he had a meeting with his entire administrative team, outlining a new approach that he wanted them to adopt. He left the gathering, but then realized he had forgotten his keys and so made his way back to the room. There he discovered that "a meeting after the meeting" was taking place, led by one of his staffers who, with her back to door, was loudly and vociferously denouncing the boss to the others. Without hesitation, Ramsey summoned the woman to his office and, in accord with his zero-tolerance for gossiping policy, fired her.
Mind you, none of this is to say that problems never arise within human societies, still less that complaints should never be voiced. But it is indeed to say that they should be expressed nonbelligerently and up the chain of command, precisely to those who can deal constructively with them. If that method is followed, gossip is not in play. I might supplement Ramsey's insight with one from John Shea, a former teacher of mine. Years ago, Shea told us that we should feel utterly free to criticize another person precisely in the measure and to the degree that we are willing to help the person deal with the problem that we've identified. If we are utterly committed to help, we should criticize as vigorously as we like. If we have a moderate willingness to help, our critique should be mitigated. If, as is typically the case, we haven't the slightest inclination to help, we should keep our mouths shut. To direct a complaint nonbelligerently up the chain of command is to be helpful; to direct it down the chain of command and in meanness of spirit is to gossip—and that's the devil's work.
Might I make a friendly suggestion? We are on the cusp of Lent, the Church's great season of penitence and self-discipline. Instead of giving up desserts or smoking this Lent, give up gossiping. For forty days, try not to comment negatively to those who have no ability to deal with the problem. And if you feel tempted to break this resolution, think of de Wit's angels hovering over you. Trust me, you and everyone around you will be a lot happier.

While I ain't no Hollaback Girl, I do enjoy a little bit of positive feedback on my site. Note, I said positive. If it is negative you can stuff it. No. Really I can take a little critique as well. There are a couple of ways for you to do this. You can make the anonymous like when I post something you like. You can tweet it, or you can add it to whatever other social network that currently tickles your fancy. That is the less direct way, and I will probably never take notice. That is, unless we're hanging out on FB.
You can post a comment, this gives you the chance to reply to something directly that I have done that interests you. This can be done anonymously, you don't need to login, but you can also drop your name and email so that I can get in touch with you if you so desire. Not that I will, it is a possibility though.
Finally you can send me a message through this handy-dandy form. Ta–dah! This is direct, and I might even take notice, though I make no promises. I have a notorious record for not getting back with people, just ask my friends on FB and Twitter, but I'll give it a go.


There's no place like inside on a day like today! I know, because I was just out there slogging through the mud and snow, doing chores…fighting the North wind and getting exfoliated by fresh snowflakes in the process!
It was looking good this morning, with temps in the 40's, we hit the schoolbooks hard first thing, and spent the afternoon tucked on the couch, under our biggest plaid fleece, reading to the whistle of wind and flapping plastic on our drafty farmhouse windows. Oldest and I dragged ourselves from the coziness for a quick lesson on how to use the bread machine, and then back we went to join the other two…but only for an hour, long enough when waiting for a thick slice each of steamy hot bread begging for butter. Mmm, you bet we indulged!
I'm waiting on dear hubby, he's had a longer than normal day at work…at least when he gets here he'll find hot chicken and noodles and his chores done. He deserves it, with the weekend he had!
How's your weather, your health and your life? Are you getting enough home time lately?


The Local Government Association (LGA) today has said that funding for the National Citizen Service (NCS), a four-week summer scheme for 15 to 17-year-olds, should be given to local councils to fund youth work services after it revealed only 12% of eligible teens took part in NCS in 2016.
"YMCA has seen first-hand the positive benefit that NCS can have on a young person's life. However, what NCS cannot replace are the year-round youth services which make vital interventions when young people need them most. Our own research found that local authority spending on youth services had reduced by more than £750m since 2010/11 across England and Wales.

Q: PHP SoapServer return empty response on function without return i have a soap with a method that return nothing
class mySoapService {
   foo(){

   }
}

$wsdl = ...;

$soapService = new mySoapService();

$soapServer = new \SoapServer($wsdl);
$soapServer->setObject($soapService);
$soapServer->handle(); // write nothing on call foo

some soap client raise an exception because they expect a proper xml-soap empty response, like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
    <SOAP-ENV:Body SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
    </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

the questions are:

*

*why PHP SoapServer return an empty response and not a xml-soap empty response?

*what say the soap standard for method without return a value?

A: Changing
$soapServer->handle();

to
$soapServer->handle(file_get_contents("php://input"));

worked for me

Some older phones may indeed have slowed down, but proving causation due to Apple's actions will be hard, say legal experts.
Since Apple acknowledged it had been slowing down old iPhones running newer operating systems to prevent shutdowns, lawsuits from angry iPhone owners have been stacking up.
At least 10 lawsuits have been filed against Apple, including complaints filed in California, North Carolina, New York, Illinois, Israel, Australia, and France. Two law firms in South Korea say they are preparing to file. Others may be on the way.
Apple said in a statement that it did indeed change the dynamic power management in older iPhones via a software update last year, to prevent the phones from suddenly shutting down.
Dynamic power management is nothing new. It's a technology that attempts to control the charge and discharge of Lithium-ion batteries according to the power required of them by the device. Apple actually implemented the technology on iPhone 6/Plus and 6s/Plus last year via an iOS update.
But Apple changed the performance of people's devices without telling them directly that they were doing so.
Apple probably should have known better than to secretly mess with the performance of the central computing hub in most people's lives. Many users are very sensitive to the speed at which their phone launches apps and renders video. And Apple knows that; note that in its statement the company did not apologize for throttling down phone performance, but did apologize for not telling consumers.
So score that one for the plaintiffs.
But proving that the kinds of performance degradations (slow apps, sudden shutdowns) reported in the lawsuits actually happened, and that they were the direct result of an Apple software update will be hard. The burden of proof is on the plaintiff, not Apple.
That the reduction in performance led directly to the consumer ditching their phone for an expensive new one before they normally would.
But that last one may be the hardest to prove of all. How does a plaintiff prove that a specific performance drop was the sole reason for heading to the Apple Store with a credit card?
I submitted the above questions to Wilshire Law Firm, the Los Angeles firm that filed the original suit in a federal court in California's central district. But the attorneys declined to respond. A spokeswoman said the attorneys hope to learn more about such "technical" questions later on during the discovery process.
The next step in the case will be when a federal district court (Central California) judge decides whether or not to certify the class action. This depends on whether the complaints of the various class members line up in a standard way and involve the same general legal questions.
A Wilshire Law Firm spokeswoman said the judge could make the decision "within the next month, few months, or a year." It's entirely up to the judge.
If the judge certifies the class, the spokeswoman told me, it's very likely that the other similar class actions filed around the country will be consolidated under the Bogdanovich/Speas case.
