The wedding industry is massive and unique. Massive, with literally being a multi-billion dollars industry, and unique, being the nature of the brides' and grooms' tendency to overspent with "once in a lifetime" mindset. Seemingly unethical, perhaps, but that in itself is the one thing that makes the industry a very attractive and lucrative one.
Starting a wedding planner business is relatively small in startup investment, monetary wise. However, the time investments and efforts needed can be daunting for beginners.
You can start the business as low with below $2,000, by starting a website or posting a social media post about you being a wedding planner. However before that, there are some ins and outs you have to consider before you plan your wedding planner business.
Being a wedding planner means that the brides and grooms to be will rely on you for their vendors. They'll have a raw idea of how they want their wedding to be, but most of them wouldn't want to bother with the detail. That's where you fill in.
A huge selection of vendors will ensure you can offer enough diversity for your clients. To start, you'll need to network with florists, decorators, patisseries for cakes, wedding tailors/dressmakers, wedding photographers, and gimmick vendors like fireworks, balloons, doves among others.
For wedding planners, their job first and foremost is a managerial task, and must be able to manage the vendors, the families, the bride and grooms, the preachers, and many more to ensure an (almost) perfect wedding.
However, creativity will also be a big part of your job. Some clients would ask for your suggestion about their idea. Some even won't have any idea at all. If you can supply and impress them with your ideas, it will be a great plus point for them.
Another part where you'll need your creativity is to build your niche. With the wedding planner business already saturated, it's good to have a 'niche', or speciality only you can have. Do you know venue ideas only you can pull off? Do you feel you're the best at certain culture's or ethnicity's weddings? Do you want to specialize in destination weddings? Find your niche and focus on them, and you'll build great portfolio.
Most of your time will be invested in marketing. You'll need a proper functioning website that shows your portfolio, shows your contacts, and some testimonies from your previous clients. Of course, the hardest part is to get that first client with whom you can build your portfolio upon.
You'll need online marketing efforts such as SEO and social media marketing. Traditional marketing like being featured on wedding magazines, being a featured speaker in a wedding expo, etc. will help you gain more awareness to potential clients. Speaking of wedding expos, you definitely have to participate if most, if not all of them in your area.
However, the most important marketing you can have is to deliver a great wedding, ensuring a good word-of-mouth recommendations from your clients to their family and friends.
A wedding day is a stressful day both to the bride, groom, and their families. And no matter how hard you pay attention to the details, there'll always be contingencies and accidents.
That's why getting a contract laid off beforehand is very important. Make sure you put your fees' details in writing. The amounts, the term of payments, and anything else you feel you need to put in. Make sure to cover contingencies such as weather problems, force majeure, or a broken engagement.
As a wedding planner, you can gain profit by taking a percentage off from the purchase clients make from vendors; this should be discussed case by case to the vendors.
On top of that, depending on your reputation, you can also take hourly consultation fee.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (www.bls.gov/ooh/business-and-financial/meeting-convention-and-event-planners.htm), the median hourly wages for event planners (including wedding) are $22.52 in 2015. That translates to an annual salary of $46,840. However, a top wedding planner can make more than $100,000 annually.
This business literally has no limit, and only how great you planned and delivered your weddings, how effective you discuss your deals with the vendors, and how productive your marketing strategies will dictate how much you can earn.
Do You have any positive or negative work experience with this (or other) Financial institution?
Write us a review please! We will submit it on our website. Thank You!

Below the surface: the impacts of COVID-19 on marine mammals

By: Amber Dearden, Jennifer Chapman, Aroha Miller
Covid-19 appeared and spread across the globe in a matter of months. It affected many industries and aspects of daily life for us, but indirectly affected life under water too. The Ocean Watch team decided to take a closer look at three of these impacts on marine mammals that have arisen due to Covid-19.
1. Decreased marine vessel traffic
2. Impacts of plastic pollution
3. Changes in citizen science data collection
Human activities in the marine environment range from less intrusive, such as some recreational activities, to much more pervasive, such as large-scale commercial fisheries and cargo ships that travel thousands of kilometers across the seas. Our impacts are often more far reaching than we realize, for example disrupting the underwater soundscape, polluting the environment, or depleting stocks of important species. It only makes sense then, that if we remove these disturbances from the marine environment, we remove the threats they create. However, the effects are hard to determine when the scientists monitoring marine species are also unable to go out on the water. We depend on these observations to understand what is going on underwater.

The sound of silence – decreased marine vessel traffic
Because of COVID-19, fewer large ships have been sailing the seas, allowing the oceans to become quieter. Cetaceans (whales, porpoises, dolphins) use echolocation for communication, finding food, mates, and family. Less underwater noise due to fewer ships means that cetaceans are getting a respite from a normally noisy underwater soundscape.
Impacts of plastic pollution
Since the COVID-19 pandemic was declared, there has been a shift back to using disposable plastics such as single use plastic bags and personal protective equipment. However, once plastics enter the ocean, they break down into smaller and smaller pieces and can be mistaken for food. Marine mammals can also become entangled by plastics, such as discarded fishing lines and packing straps. This risk has been exacerbated by increased single use plastic use, and the reduced ability of the Marine Mammal Rescue Team to respond to calls because of strict COVID-19 health guidelines.
Changes in citizen science data collection
With boating activities, such as ferry sailings and ecotourism operators, being reduced or simply not operating, fewer people have been out on the water. AS a result, fewer cetacean sightings have been reported from the sea (but more from land), which implies whale sightings may have been missed. Cetacean sightings reported by citizens to the BC Cetacean Sightings Network (BCCSN) provide near real-time information to the WhaleReport Alert System (WRAS) on whale distribution. The WRAS is then used to mitigate ship strikes on cetaceans by alerting ship pilots when they are near whales, allowing them to change course. Missed cetacean sighting results in a reduced ability to protect cetaceans from ship strikes.
These indirect impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on marine mammals are just a selection. As we continue to observe the oceans, we will likely discover more. These unprecedented times have allowed us to take a step back and think more about what we can do to lessen our impacts on the natural world. For a more in-depth review of these impacts as well as a list of recommended actions you can take to lessen the impacts to marine mammals, view the full report.

The sudden death of Christopher Ewing in last week's season finale of Dallas was an explosive turn of events, both literally and figuratively. In many ways, he was the least likely of the Ewings expected to meet death in such a manner. Intended to be the moral center of the show's new generation, like his father Bobby had been during the show's '80s heyday, Christopher had the not-always enthralling duty of standing up for what's right and good. He was at his best when he was the knight in shining armor. However, next to more colorful characters like John Ross and Nicolas, he couldn't help but come across a bit bland. It's not easy being Mr. Nice Guy. Then again, life for Christopher could have been worse had it not been for the fortuitous twist of Bobby intercepting Jeff Farraday's blackmail plan against J.R. in 1981. Farraday, a Los Angeles-based drug dealer and all-around shifty guy, was Christopher's biological father and his birth mother was Sue Ellen's younger sister Kristin Shepard, whose resume included husband stealing, blackmail and attempted murder. Clearly, Christopher didn't come from good stock. Luckily for him, Dallas writers seized on an opportunity to prove that nurture, not nature, determines a person's moral compass. Although Chris' beginnings were tinged with tragedy — both his birth parents met early deaths — he was destined to land safely in the loving arms of Bobby and Pam Ewing, the star-crossed Romeo and Juliet of Southfork who so craved to share their love with a child. An accident — involving J.R., of course — caused Pam to miscarry the first baby she conceived with Bobby and for a long time thereafter it was believed she could not carry a baby to full term. Bobby, thinking Christopher was J.R.'s love child by Kristin, brought him to Southfork but Pam saw him before he could confront J.R. and he didn't have the heart to tell his jubilant wife that Christopher wasn't meant for her. Pam eventually learned the truth, but succeeded in adopting Chris with Bobby and they hoped to raise him together. Alas, it was not meant to be.
Pam (Victoria Principal) was overjoyed when she first laid eyes on Christopher.
Pam barely survived a fiery car accident in 1987 and died a few years later of cancer while under the care of a doctor whom she married while Bobby and Christopher moved on with their lives back in Dallas. The aftermath of Pam's disappearance saw a parade of women pass through Southfork seeking to make a life with Bobby. Bobby's unexpected romance with J.R.'s reformed accomplice April Stevens (Sheree J. Wilson) was temporarily interrupted by his dalliances with lobbyist Kay Lloyd (Karen Kopins) and realtor Jean O'Brien (Margaret Michaels), a Pam lookalike. Then Christopher's dark past reared its ugly head when Jeff Farraday's sister Lisa Alden (Amy Stock-Poynton) arrived in Dallas and, after dating Bobby briefly, revealed her true intention to sue for custody of the little boy. Bobby fought off Lisa's attempt to take Christopher away from him and finally married April, only to have her killed in a botched assassination plot in Paris during their honeymoon. Father and son soldiered on throughout the years while Christopher's childhood rivalry with John Ross blossomed into full-blown war over women, Southfork and business.
Christopher brought much joy to Pam and Bobby's lives.
When viewers were reunited with the Ewing boys in 2012, they were enmeshed in a complicated quadrangle involving the beautiful Elena Ramos, a childhood friend, and the mysterious Rebecca Sutter, who turned out to be Pamela Rebecca Barnes, Cliff's daughter with former J.R. mistress Afton Cooper. Pamela's deceit, along with John Ross' J.R.-worthy machinations, led to the breakup of Christopher's marriage, then his heartache reached new depths when Cliff's vicious plot to destroy the Ewings caused the deaths of his and Pamela's unborn twin babies. This year it looked like Chris would finally find the stability of a family life that he, like his father, craved when he met Heather, a Southfork ranch hand with a little boy. When events drew Heather and her son back to Bo, another Southfork employee who was the boy's father, Christopher gallantly stepped aside and ended his pursuit of Heather so her little boy could be reunited with his reconciling parents. Christopher again rose to the challenge when Elena was endangered by the suave Mexican businessman Nicolas Trevino. Nicolas' reentry into Elena's life — they had been childhood friends in Mexico — brought much destruction to her life. Although Christopher succeeded in freeing Elena from Nicolas' sinister influence, his victory came at a horrible price when Trevino's hitman killed the Ewing heir in a car explosion eerily reminiscent of his mother's infamous accident of 1987. Christopher's departure from the Dallas saga will open powerful, new storylines for those closest to him, Bobby and Elena primarily, much like Bobby's one-year "dream death" in 1985 led to some of the best acting by the Dallas cast left behind until Patrick Duffy returned to the show the following year. Hopefully, Christopher's death will not be a dream and the stories lying ahead will powerfully show how the Ewings cope in the aftermath of such a cruel loss. Rest in peace, Christopher Ewing. You will be missed.
Christopher provided Pam solace after her divorce from Bobby in 1983.
Christopher's hopes that his mother was alive were dashed in 2013.
Christopher was played, appropriately enough, by actor Christopher Demetral in the 1996 TV movie Dallas: J.R. Returns
Elena and Christopher were as star-crossed as Pam and Bobby were in the 1980s.

He died like Pam. Its sad that Digger, Rebecca, Herbert, Pam, Katherine, and even Cliff have no legacy anymore. Christopher is dead and Pamela gave the Ewings all of their combined material possessions by trusting them. The fact that Bobby and Sue Ellen fid not bat an eyelash while taking their company from her proved her mom, Afton, and her father, Cliff correct. It was very telling how Sue Ellen seemed to care and offer advice, and Bobby seemed to champion her, only for them to gloatingly take her inheritance. I bet she regrets not turning to her mother or father after the truth about John Ross's affairs and JR and families set up of her father. Now that Christopher is dead and Cliff has been put away, and with Pamela out of the game, hopefully Katherine can make a much needed return and find a way to revive the Barnes Wentworth legacy.

Thanks, dodq. Instead of reigniting the Barnes-Ewing feud properly, they got distracted by cartels. Here's hoping Dallas get's a second chance. #SaveDallas

TNT really screwed up!! They should have not dropped the series. It was a very good program / show. It's a shame!! These days programs that are on TV are awful!!! There is nothing to watch but sick and hateful programs. At least Dallas was a good program of today's society. Because the programs that are on now of today's societies are sick and etc…. whatever happened to the great shows there isn't anymore. Someone needs to bring Dallas back. It was wide open so it can still be picked up.

PRESS RELEASE: Open For Justice in Cumberland-Colchester
admin2021-06-02T11:32:57-04:00October 13th, 2015|General blog, Press releases|
Central Nova, Cumberland-Colchester candidates reply to questions re human rights abuses of Canadian companies abroad and support for Open for Justice campaign. Tories do not respond.
The Maritimes-Guatemala Breaking the Silence Network (BTS) supports the Open for Justice campaign that seeks to ensure that people whose human rights have been abused by Canadian mining, oil and gas companies abroad are able to seek justice in Canada.Twenty-nine groups support Open for Justice, including Amnesty International, MiningWatch Canada, KAIROS, Development and Peace and the United Church of Canada.
Canada is home to more than half of the world's mining companies, with projects in more than 100 countries. These companies are often viewed as representatives of Canada abroad, but human rights abuses, environmental damage, displacement and violations of basic labour rights are increasingly associated with these projects. There is no international system that governs resource extraction to protect human rights or the environment. In many countries, protections do not exist or are not enforced, multilateral institutions are often weak or inaccessible, and there are barriers to seeking justice in Canada.
Erick Fernando was one of seven peaceful protesters shot outside of the Tahoe Resources mine in April 2013. Most victims of serious human rights violations do not have recourse in Canada though 70% of the world mining companies are registered here.
BTS members from Pugwash to Antigonish asked Central Nova and Cumberland-Colchester riding candidates whether they would work in Parliament to:
1. Create an independent extractive-sector Ombudsperson in Canada, with the power to investigate complaints and make recommendations, including suspending or ending Canadian government support to companies that do not respect international standards; and
2. Provide legislated access to Canadian courts for people who have been seriously harmed by the international operations of Canadian companies. Such legislation would clarify that Canadian courts are appropriate venues in which to hear claims against companies registered in Canada?
No response was received from Conservative Party candidates Fred Delorey and Scott Armstrong. Mr. Armstrong voted in October 2014 against Bill C-584, a Private Member's Bill for the creation of an independent ombudsman's office to replace the weak and ineffectual Office of the Extractive Sector Social Responsibility Counsellor.
Responses: Cumberland-Colchester
Jason Blanch, Green Party My answer to your questions is a resounding yes! I feel as Canadians we have a responsibility to ensure that the behaviour of our corporations reflects the values we hold as a people, and this is clearly not the case with regard to many Canadian mining companies today.
Bill Casey, Liberal Party Question #1: Yes, assuming the bill is similar to C-584. Question#: I have no idea if this international initiative is possible or how it would work. Prior to making a commitment I would prefer to hear all aspects of this proposal and have some legal opinions of how it might work. I will however be pleased to meet to talk about this approach and explore the possibility at any time.
Wendy Robinson, NDP NDP MP Ève Péclet introduced a bill in 2014 to strengthen corporate social responsibility (CSR) among Canadian extracting companies operating in developing countries. The NDP believes that non-Canadians who have been harmed by the international operations of Canadian companies should be able to bring lawsuits before a Canadian court.
Scott Armstrong, Conservative Party No response
Responses: Central Nova
David Hachey, Green Party David Hachey is committed to work to bring forward both of the recommendations and to work to restore the inclusion of key civil society groups into parliamentary committees and other spheres of federal decision making.
Sean Fraser, Liberal Party We support the call for an independent Extractive Sector Ombudsman. A Liberal government will act on the National Roundtables Advisory Group's recommendations. You have asked for legislated access to Canadian courts by people who have been seriously harmed by international operations of Canadian companies. Although we have not committed to this we welcome further discussion.
Ross Landry, NDP NDP MP Ève Péclet introduced a bill in 2014 to strengthen corporate social responsibility among Canadian extracting companies operating in developing countries. No response to Question #2.
Fred Delorey, Conservative Party No response

The current session of the Maryland General Assembly is considering new legislation that would expand common element and common area warranty protections in future condominiums and homeowners associations. House Bill 620 proposes to expand the application of both the three-year condominium common element warranty, and the one-year homeowners association common area warranty, for projects created after October 1, 2010. The warranty on condominium common elements would run for three (3) years from the first transfer of title to a unit, or two (2) years from the date the developer transfers control, whichever is later. The warranty on homeowners association common areas would run for two (2) years form the first transfer of title to a lot, or two (2) years from the date the developer transfers control, whichever is later.
Under current law, there is a three-year implied warranty on certain specified components of the common elements, including the roof, foundation, external and supporting walls, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems, and other structural elements. This warranty, which is enforceable only by the council of unit owners, commences with the first transfer of title to a unit in the condominium. (There is an exception for common elements not completed at that time, in which case the warranty on such common elements commences when they are completed or become available for use, whichever is later). That means that the warranty will expire regardless of when the unit owners take control of the condominium from the developer, and regardless of the number of units that have been sold. It is possible, therefore, depending on the pace of sales and the size of the condominium, for the common element warranty to expire before or close to the council of unit owners assumes control of the complex, which usually occurs about the time that a majority of the units have been sold. The warranty can also expire even before some units have been sold. So it is possible to buy into a condominium community at a time when the three-year common element warranty no longer exists.
Under the proposed bill, Section 11-131 of the Maryland Condominium Act would be amended to provide that the three-year common element warranty, while commencing with the first transfer of title, runs for a period of three (3) years from that date, or for two (2) years from the date on which the developer transfers control of the council of unit owners, whichever occurs later. This would extend the common element warranty in any community where there transfer of control occurs more than a year after the transfer of title to the first unit. The legislation would also require that the specified components to which the warrant is applicable, must be included in the definition of common elements contained in the condominium governing documents, provided that they serve more than one unit or serve the common elements. Presently, any of the specified components could potentially be excluded from coverage under the warranty by their inclusion as part of the units as defined in the declaration.
Under the original language of the bill, these provisions would not be applicable to any current condominium, but, instead, would apply only to those for which the declaration, by-laws, and plat are recorded after October 1, 2010.
The current homeowners association common area warranty commences upon the first transfer of title to a lot. (There is an exception for not yet completed common area components, in which case the warranty commences when they are completed or available for use, whichever is later). The warranty extends for period of only one year. As a result, it is possible for the warranty to expire before the developer transfers control of the community to the property owners, and before many lots have even been sold.
The proposed legislation would amend Section 11B-110 of the Maryland Homeowners Association Act to enlarge the warranty to two (2) years. It would also provide that the two-year period commence at the time of the first transfer of title to a lot, or at the time the developer transfers control to the homeowners, whichever is later.
In its present form, the legislation would not effect any existing homeowners association. Instead, it would only apply to those created after the effective date of the legislation, which is identified in the bill to be October 1, 2010.

In the 1980s, on winter days in northwest London, a young Zadie Smith would pay a visit to her local youth centre in a baggy sweatshirt and jeans. Perched on a worn wooden chair in Kilburn's Granville Plus Youth Arts Centre, she would sit with an open book in one hand, a pad of paper in the other. The little library here is one of the few quiet spaces in the area where a child, no matter what race or class, can escape from the chaos at home to read. Today Smith is one of the world's most successful writers, and Kilburn features heavily in her writings. "Ungentrified, ungentrifiable. Boom and bust never come here", she writes in her 2012 novel NW, which draws its name from the area's postcode prefix. "Here bust is permanent. Empty State Empire, empty Odeon, graffiti-streaked sidings rising and falling like a rickety rollercoaster."
But perhaps Smith spoke too soon. Now even Kilburn's historical character is under threat. In July 2016 local authority Brent Council decided to close the Granville Plus Centre to replace it with an unaffordable high-rise development. The local community has been fiercely going against the council cabinet to resist this development. In November 2016 the community organised a "Save the Granville" event, where Smith came to talk. She started her speech by criticising architect Patrik Schumacher's vision for London, calling it "a complete privatisation of all public spaces." Schumacher, who has led Zaha Hadid's practice since her death in March 2016, had recently called for, among other things, London's iconic Hyde Park to be replaced with private development.
As Smith correctly identifies, public spaces such as youth centres and libraries are increasingly under threat. Since May 2010, 343 UK libraries have closed, while another 111 are proposed for closure within another year. The UK budget for council youth services was also cut by £387 million during the same period. These closures provide opportunities for the city to repurpose the physical space for housing development.
Part of the challenge is that London faces a chronic housing shortage. To address this, in November 2016 London's mayor Sadiq Khan committed himself to increasing population density through new developments and regeneration of existing housing estates. Khan's plans largely rely on encouraging the private sector to build rental units. Notably missing from these commitments however are plans for spaces such as libraries and youth centres. The only types of public spaces prioritised in development plans are streets, parks and green gardens. While necessary and beneficial to quality of life, they do little to promote opportunities for the advancement of the underprivileged. While much has been written about what impact Khan's plans has on community dynamics, displacement and inequality, little has been written about the consequences of literature and public knowledge.
Shannon Mattern considers youth centres and libraries to be "opportunity institutions" that can open doors to the disenfranchised by providing opportunities for knowledge and skill enhancement at low cost. The idea of free libraries, physical study spaces or classes may seem anachronistic in 2017 when digital devices are ubiquitous. However they're even more important now. Formal education facilities and quality vary dramatically from school to school. Not everyone has access to digital devices and wifi for use at home. Even when they do, the home environment might not be conducive to learning. Libraries and study spaces offer refuge for many children and adults who otherwise would not have access to books, the internet or the space and instruction to help them learn. According to the National Literacy Trust, children who go to a library are twice as likely to read well than those who don't.
Opportunity institutions are critical to the nurturing of public intellectuals who will go on to reflect a working-class or marginalised perspective. Writing is a slow and expensive pursuit: intellectuals often come from wealthy or literary families willing to support them through years of rejections by publishing houses. As all writers speak from their own experience, these personal circumstances have resulted in a dearth of English-language literature that concentrates on the lives of the urban working class.
Smith is one of the few contemporary writers who offer us a window into the lives of the London working class: the Indian restaurant waiters, the Jamaican mothers, the local council administrators. Her work explores what it means to be poor or to have been poor; because of that, she's often referred to as the Charles Dickens of our time. Smith owes her writing to the public institutions of her youth: they allowed her to develop the type of empathy and insights that can only come from growing up in a poor neighbourhood and which would later be communicated with the clarity and skill you get from an education at Cambridge University. A US writer who has been able to offer similar insights into poverty is Junot Diaz who has, he says, "seen the US from the bottom up". The young Diaz, a voracious reader who grew up near a landfill in Parlin New Jersey, walked four miles every day to borrow books from the library. "My public library saved my life. My letter to Hogwarts was my first library card."
If libraries are closed, where will the public intellectuals come from? What intellectual voices will represent the next generation? As London reinvents intself to accommodate a growing population, the emphasis given to one kind of social benefit (housing) can't be used as an excuse by the private sector to severely reduce the chances to enhance another (knowledge). Just as cities can place mandatory requirements on new buildings to incorporate space for affordable units and green gardens, they can also mandate a portion of space and a percentage of capital to be used for supporting spaces for children and adults to read and learn.

Dundee artist puts 800 years of history in Hospitalfield House graphic novel
By Kay V. Davis	 Last updated Jun 3, 2021
Dundee illustrator Laura Darling has created a new graphic novel telling the fascinating 800-year history of the gardens of Hospitalfield House in Arbroath.
His book, In the Garden at Hospitalfield, was launched when the venue recently reopened. It is also in the running for the prestigious World Illustration Awards 2021.
Laura began work on the book during a one-year residency at Hospitalfield House from 2019-2020 as head of the Free Drawing School. Between the organization of creative workshops for the inhabitants of the region, she became fascinated by the historical grounds.

In the Garden at Hospitalfield tells the story of the gardens of Hospitalfield House.
She explains, "When I started studying it, I realized that history had never been written before. The more questions I asked, the more it led. I knew I had to tell the story of the garden somehow.
"I need pictures"
Graphic novels emphasize illustrations to tell a story. Laura decided that the format would be the perfect way to present her findings.
She said, "I can't understand something just by reading a written description – I need pictures. I managed to fit it to roughly 60 pages which was a challenge. It could have been an epic tome.
"I wanted it to be something that you could walk through and get a general overview of 'this is how the garden evolved' and 'that's who lived there.' Make you feel like you could come back to this world.

One of Laura's illustrations for In the Garden at Hospitalfield.
"I was also trying to determine the appropriate context. So when was it? What was going on at the time?
When Arbroath Abbey was built in the 12th century, people began to come there on pilgrimage. Around 1260, monks built a nearby hospital for visitors needing treatment.
The gardens were originally used by monks to grow plants and herbs for medicinal purposes. This is why the house was named Hospitalfield.
"An incredible project"
Over the centuries, Hospitalfield has been redeveloped by its many inhabitants and Laura says the Victorian era has been a useful research tool.
"The Victorians really looked to the past – that's what inspired them. So, looking into the house itself gives you plenty of clues about how the garden looked at that time.
"The gardens change so often that it is therefore very difficult to document. There are only a few pictures from the Victorian era. There is so much to archive in the house itself. They have a fantastic group of volunteers who document all the collections.

Laura adds, "The way I designed the book, I hope people will read it a few times. There are lots of little things that I hope people miss the first time around. That's what I love about the books – when you can come back to it. It was an incredible project. "
A launch event for In the Garden at Hospitalfield will take place on June 5th. To learn more, click here. Copies are available for purchase at Hospitalfield House.

Yeah, 2nd place is great!
@ Ana's comment: It appears someone stood up (Kenny, Ius and Kryt) and gave it a shot. They were much more of a team than last year and succeeded to do a lot better.
i mean i started to flame and then stopped.and after 3 mins or sth i said **** off(didnt even want) cuz of some airs and i got kicked out "
You were warned 5times or more. I had to kick you because you kept spamming and screaming at your teammates, also swearing. You should use teamchat next time.
GG! 5th place is what we deserve atm.We are no better than this because Romania is not a team. Next tournament I hope someone else will be the leader of Romania bec I give up ,it`s too hard.
Round 1 was kind of even.. we were pwning them for longer periods of time, but it always failed because I eventually lost health, and Blackrose didn't communicate enough. In half time we talked things over and round two went a lot better. We got to 3-0 quickly, then Romania took some kind of timeout, which really seemed to help, either because they gained some focus or because we lost ours. Eventually the score was 5-3 or 4-3 (I think), and Iustyn got kicked off for spamming/flaming his teammates, so then we scored a few more scores.
GJ, Romania, you deserve the ranking anyway. You showed that you're a strong country in the game where Kenny played. Hopefully you can have some better organization the next tournament, and maybe you will get quite far.

First Look at the Silver Surfer. The teaser trailer is a first look at Silver Surfer in motion, played by Doug Jones, our favorite creepy Gentleman.
I'm anticipating this movie even more now but I'm not going to be cheesy and say it's fantastic. :)

Can't get the link to work.
Chris inVirginia | January 02, 11:15 CET
Tried some workarounds...got a notice that "a bad public movie atom" was making linking impossible.
Really want to check this link out. The Surfer was a childhood favorite of mine.
Looks great! Also was a childhood Silver Surfer fan, though I hardly remember anything about it.
Caroline | January 02, 11:29 CET
Chris, do you have the latest version of Quicktime?
gossi | January 02, 11:31 CET
Upgrading to the new Quicktime 7 engine (available from apple.com) might help Chris, if you've already got that then i'm drawing a blank (normally it means a corrupted file but from a streamed source that shouldn't be a show-stopper - atoms are just 'bits' of a Quicktime file, movie atoms are 'bits' from a movie file and public movie atoms are... well, you get the idea ;).
Just watched it without sound and Wow ! Very nice. Sort of like the T-1000 but, y'know, 15 years more advanced and with added warpage of the space-time continuum. The Human Torch effects have been ramped up as well. OK, here's something I never thought i'd say having seen the first one but i'm actually looking forward to Fantastic Four 2 now. Wonders never cease.
Saje | January 02, 11:34 CET
They actually did an amazing job with the Silver Surfer. Makes me feel much better about this movie. I heard no Galactus, though. I suppose it's too hard to have a character so large he can devour worlds.
Hans Moleman | January 02, 11:37 CET
I've modified the link so that it goes to an html page and you can choose the size you want -- I realized that I had clicked 'large' because I could handle the download but others might not be able to.
the ninja report | January 02, 11:38 CET
Galactus is probably going to be in third installment. If my memory serves me right I think he usually sends the Surfer out as a scout.
I'm not a fan of the first movie, but I do commend the production on trying to execute this storyline. Every other comic book movie I've seen so far seems to be gun shy on high concepts.
delirium_haze | January 02, 11:52 CET
Well for people who want to take a look but dont want quicktime can hop on over to youtube to check it out, which is what I did. WHen I loaded the link first, it crashed Firefox on me.
And, I dunno, I never saw the first movie, so should I bother with the second? I am not a comic book person I guess, I just would like to see decent storyline , plot, characterization.
kurya | January 02, 12:48 CET
I didn't know there WAS a first movie. When was that?
miri47 | January 02, 13:20 CET
Haha, miri47, the first movie was in 2005. I liked it a lot -- it was fun, it was light, it was one of those perfect summer blockbusters.
I'm a big comic book fan so I catch every comic book movie that comes out.
Well, my favorite Gentleman is Camden Toy, but that's okay.... *chortle*
krad | January 02, 13:42 CET
I liked the first film too. It didn't hit quite the same level as Spiderman or X-Men 2, but it was much better than a lot of the comic adaptations (such as Catwoman). I liked the fact that they actually spent a considerable amount of time developing the characters and not focusing solely on the special effects. It could actually have done with a little more action to compliment the story, in contrast with a lot of films which use a flimsy, underdeveloped plot to showcase some beautiful actors or special effects. I'm hopeful that the second film will retain the character driven feeling of the first, whilst perhaps making it a little more lively and entertaining overall.
Razor | January 02, 14:12 CET
It's okay to enjoy a comic book movie soley on the basis of eye candy (Tobey MaGuire, Hugh Jackman, Chris Evans, Ioan Gruffudd)...
Well, maybe Doug Jones is our favorite "creepy" Gentleman, and Camden Toy is our favorite "eerie" Gentleman :) In any event, fans of Doug Jones (I fall into this category) might want to note that "Pan's Labyrinth" is now in theatres. It's very dark, very magical, really engrossing. Doug plays two roles (the Faun and the Pale Man) and he's excellent.
Shapenew | January 02, 14:47 CET
Was anybody else excited that Brian Posehn was the priest?
GrapenutsRobot | January 02, 15:41 CET
Ah, didn't realise that was Doug Jones but I second the "Pan's Labyrinth" recommendation. Very beautifully shot, well acted and twisted in the best way. It's not your grandmother's fairytale (or rather it is your grandmother's fairytale since it's a bit of a return to the darkness of ages gone by, pre-Disneyfication) but it's well worth a look, IMO (definitely not for kids though, which is a shame since it has a very worthwhile message).
Re: Fantastic Four 1, well each to their own. I've spent worse times in the cinema (i'm looking at you 'Stealth') and as has been said they at least tried to capture some of the bickering-but-loving family dynamic that I gather the comic has (don't read it) but for me the action was technically accomplished but flat, the plot was slow (which in fairness is often the case with origin stories), the acting was very variable and the whole thing just felt bitty, like a blockbuster by numbers. To say it didn't quite hit the level of Spiderman (especially 2) or X-Men 2 would be something of an understatement for me ;).
(speaking of eye candy though, Jessica Alba and Chris Evans in their underwear, so something for everyone in that regard at least ;)
Browncoat - you have mighty fine taste in candy...
redfern | January 02, 15:52 CET
I played the Silver Surfer Nintendo game. Does that count?
I thought the first FF movie was okay, nothing special, though not as bad as I'd heard.
Polter-Cow | January 02, 16:30 CET
I'm going to watch the first FF movie again tonight. What's really hilarious is that in researching a bit more about the FF2 movie, I saw that there was an unreleased version in the mid 90's...from what I've read, we should all be thankful it was unreleased.
redfern, I suppose if any other Whedonverse actors were involved in comic book movies, I'd start making a loooong list. I like my eye candy like I like my jewelry -- pretty.
Saje, I second that evil eye cast at 'Stealth.' I hate it when movies make me feel mediocre. I mean, if the movie is so horrible, it can't even ilicit anger or even a "blegh" at how awful it is, and instead just leaves you with this ambivalent, dazed feeling -- like Stealth and MI:III... my father saw MI:III and when asked what he thought, he said very simply, "eh."
That sums it up -- "eh."
Ah, they're doing the Kirby Surfer, which makes sense, as that was the one that the FF encountered, as he was Galactus's herald.
I preferred the Buscema Surfer, more philosophical and such.
But I was a way-emo adolescent back then...
The actual first FF movie was never released...I bought a copy on eBay (and sold it, later)...it was bad, but not as legendarily bad as advertised...but, it did have Mercedes McNabb as a pre-teen Sue Storm, with a crush on teenaged Reed Richards!
Bizarre, Browncoat...we simulposted, and both mentioned the unreleased FF movie!
That IS bizarre...
You know what makes me think that Spiderman and X-Men may resonate with more people on a wider level? It doesn't have to do with quality, though I can argue that Spidey 1 and 2 and X-Men 1 and 2 are better.
(I somewhat disavow 3 was ever made and have refused to buy it despite all those images of Archangel...add another one to the eye candy list...)
It actually has to do with the subject matter -- FF was just at the very inception, made to be LESS dramatic and more "camp" which at the time, is what was needed. X-Men sure had its camp here and there but overall, it has always been more dramatic and somber than Spiderman, and Spiderman a bit more somber than FF. Because of this, I think X-Men is the adult in us all who wants to really have mutant powers, Spiderman is the awkward teenager in all of us who just. wants. to. fit. in. and the FF is the kid in all of us who thinks it would be AWESOME to be able to be the human torch.
I am happy to say, I have all three in me and I still love comic book movies!
Oh, and one of the coolest parts of FF that I LOVED was that each character had real world problems with their power. Besides the obvious, which was Ben Grimm, Susan Storm had to get rid of her clothes every time she got invisible, and had problems when she became visible again. As we heard in the FF2 trailer, Johnny has problems when he turns himself into a duraflame log and back again. I mean, in X-Men you would think that an entire outfit of leather (presumably previously unworn leather too!) would be difficult to fight and maneuver in, but oh well.
I saw the original unreleased FF movie from the '90s on VHS several years ago. It was a Roger Corman film and it was pretty bad. Looked cheap like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film. The Corman FF film is out there, if you know where to look, but it should probably be added as a bonus feature to an FF DVD box set at some point in the future. Y'know... just to thwart bootleggers.
Hjermsted | January 02, 19:39 CET
Silver Surfer and Dr. Strange have always been my favorite Marvelites. This trailer was teh @wesome. (I'm not holding my breath for a decent Dr. Strange.)
bogu_salias | January 02, 23:52 CET
Hey, I saw Doug Jones' new flick, Pan's Labyrinth, this weekend, and it was amazing. My vote for best film of the year, and the character Jones plays in the movie are so cool and imaginative, and I nominate the Pale Man as creepiest guy of the decade.
I live in S.F., so it opened here before it goes into wide release, but when/if you get the chance, see this movie! It's a beautiful, powerfully sad modern parable, and pretty much elevated del Toro into my pantheon of great directors.

Die Villa Rosa liegt in der Hellerstraße 10 im Ursprungsstadtteil der sächsischen Stadt Radebeul. Sie wurde 1895 nach Plänen des Architekten und Baumeisters Gustav Röder errichtet.

Beschreibung
Der Radebeuler Baumeister Gustav Röder entwarf und errichtete 1895 für den Radebeuler Ortsrichter und Inhaber eines Speditions-, Kohlen- und Baumaterialiengeschäfts am Radebeuler Bahnhof ein kleines eingeschossiges Wohnhaus. Die mitsamt den (durch erneuerte eiserne Zaunfelder verbundenen) Sandstein-Pfeilern der Einfriedung unter Denkmalschutz stehende landhausartige Villa steht traufständig zur Straße. Sie hat einen Drempel mit kleinen liegenden Fenstern und darüber ein steiles Satteldach.

In der Straßenansicht steht ein zweigeschossiger Mittelrisalit mit einem Gesprengegiebel und Koppelfenstern. Diese sind im Erdgeschoss rechteckig wie die anderen Fenster, im Obergeschoss jedoch rundbogig. Darüber befindet sich hinter dem Gesprenge ein kleines Rundfenster.

In der rechten Seitenansicht steht eine hölzerne Veranda, die 1899 ergänzt wurde. 1955 kamen eine Waschküche und ein Abstellraum hinzu.

Der Sockel des Gebäudes besteht aus Polygonal-Bruchsteinmauerwerk, die erneuerten Putzfassaden werden durch Sand- und Kunststeinelemente gegliedert.

A bedroom is functional. It's where you sleep, but with a few careful changes and some thoughtful planning, it can become a stylish haven that you seek out to relax and spend time in before you go to bed.
There is no right or wrong, but the impact of colour in your bedroom can make a big difference. Soothing tones in blue and green have long been favourites because their tranquility promotes restful sleep. Beware they aren't too 'cold' though as this could sub-consciously put you off spending time there.
Stronger colours are in vogue at the moment. Don't let colour scare you. If you fancy something more dramatic but are nervous, try colour on one wall only and use paler tones in the rest of the room, leading to crisp white bed linen.
Bed linen is a great place to show your personality and is the easiest place to experiment with a new colour or pattern. You might even start with /your linen and work from there. There are many online retailers selling a wide range of designs. ((http://www.dunelm.com/category/home-and-furniture/bedding/duvet-covers) If you find a design you like, you can pick out accent colours or themes to continue on the walls and wider decor.
Natural fibres will be more comfortable to sleep in, so beware the polyester content in the bed linen you choose.
Add texture to your bedroom by layering cushions, blankets and throws on your bed or armchair if you have room.
Wallpapering is the other obvious option for adding pattern to a room, though you might choose to seek professional help to ensure the pattern sits correctly. The human eye will easily pick up any errors in the pattern.
If you are getting any structural work done, a professional tradesman is certainly advisable and there are many skilled people around. Try asking friends and neighbours for recommendations.
In case it doesn't all go to plan, organisations such as Citizens Advice are on hand to help and advise.
Few of us are fortunate to have a 'big enough' bedroom, or one that is perfectly proportioned for everything we want to put into it. Take 'the rules' into account; paler colours will make the space appear bigger, and darker shades will make it smaller. It's the same principle as clothes - black is slimming - but in your bedroom, you probably want the space to be as big as it can.
Use pattern carefully. Large prints could swamp a smaller space, for example, and mixing too many patterns could make the whole scheme too 'busy'.
Mirrors make the space look bigger. Use mirror-fronted doors on a wardrobe, or hang a full-length mirror if you have space. A free-standing mirror can act as a great feature in the bedroom.
If you do have space, an easy chair is one of the most indulgent additions to a bedroom. Fill it with comfy cushions and soft throws, put a table lamp beside it and light a scented candle and you've created a relaxing sanctuary to spend awake time in as well as sleep.

The 38-year-old woman left her home between 4.30 and 5am for a jog in the city's Østerbro district. When she didn't return, her family contacted police. Officers searched for the woman but she wasn't found until over nine hours later when a family member discovered her behind some bushes at a football field shortly before 3pm.
She was taken to Copenhagen's Rigshospital and put in a medically induced coma. By Tuesday evening, officials said she was out of critical condition.
Police appealed to the public for help on Tuesday night and by early on Wednesday morning they had arrested a 29-year-old man who was seen in the area of the attack on surveillance video.
Copenhagen Police spokesman Hans Erik Raben told Ritzau news agency on Wednesday afternoon that the man has been charged with attempted murder and rape.
Police said that the female victim was found battered and partially unclothed.
"She was near death when she was found," Copenhagen Police spokesman Torben Svarrer said.
Ritzau reported that police believe the man attempted to strangle the woman after hitting her numerous times in the head and face. She is believed to have been raped after losing consciousness, police said.
Svarrer told TV2 news that video footage showed that the man "was in the area of the crime scene" at the time of the attack.
"That, and his behaviour on the video surveillance, led us to arrest the man early this morning," he said.
Police did not detail how they identified and tracked down the man, saying only that he was arrested "somewhere in Copenhagen".
No details about the man's identity or nationality have been released but Ritzau reported that a Greenlandic interpreter was called to the preliminary hearing.

Copenhagen police lift stop-and-search zone
Police extend Copenhagen stop-and-search following knife attacks
Police in Copenhagen have announced that stop and search zones put in place following a spate of knife violence in the Danish capital will now be lifted, after no further incidents occurred in the last week.
Published: 19 January 2023 18:23 CET
The stop and search zones (also called "visitation zones"), which were in effect in parts of the Nørrebro and Nordvest neighbourhoods, will not be continued and will expire on Thursday, police confirmed.
Efter en uge uden nye hændelser forlænger vi ikke den visitationszone, der siden d. 29/12 har været gældende på Nørrebro og i Nordvest. Efterforskningen af knivstikkerierne, der fandt sted efter jul, skrider frem, men der er endnu ikke foretaget anholdelser i sagerne #politidk

Recent weeks have not seen any further incidents, police stated, in reference to a spate of violence that flared in the area at the end of 2022.
When the zones are in effect, police within the zone can stop people and check their possessions without meeting the usual requirements to do so.
The stop-and-search zone was put in place on December 29th in response to five stabbings within a week in Copenhagen. It was extended on January 5th.
At the time, police said they believed several of the stabbings were between young men associated with criminal circles, but that there had been no sign of a conflict between established crime groups.
In Thursday's tweet, police said that investigations into the incidents were "progressing". No arrests have yet been made.

Today, value creation is a collaborative effort both within the company and between the company and its stakeholders. The Group aims to strengthen its commitment by facilitating employee involvement in projects that serve society and by offering Solvay's expertise to regions where the Group operates. Disclosure of Solvay's indirect economic impact is provided in this section.
70% of the industrial sites have a working group – composed of the site manager, human resource manager, and employee representatives – that defines the major issues facing the region and what relevant societal actions the site will take.
Each site is invited to design its own local societal action plan in accordance with the principles of the Solvay Way framework and the needs of surrounding communities. Guidelines are provided to the sites, inviting them to start by designating a working group to update the site's plans annually in pursuit of continuous improvement.
Employee representatives are volunteer ambassadors They actively contribute to and participate in the working groups and propose actions.
Societal Actions are not subject to assurance procedures, as the reporting process is being recalibrated to strengthen data quality.
Number of employees that participated at least in one societal action in 2018 (even if they are no long present at the company on December 31, 2018) divided by the headcount on December 31, 2018.
In 2019, Solvay will launch the Solvay Award for outstanding local societal actions to recognize, share, and promote best practices. Interested sites will present their best practices with respect to societal actions. A jury will bring together representatives from diverse Global Business Units and regions: site managers, Human Resources managers, industrial relations officers, the Solvay Way Champions, employee representatives, and NGO representatives.
Solvay aims to connect its philanthropic effort with the Group's areas of expertise and support causes where its products or activities can deliver added value.
In 1923, Solvay created the Ernest Solvay Fund to honor the founder of the Company, who died the year before. Today, the majority of Solvay's corporate philanthropy goes through the Ernest Solvay Fund, managed by the independent King Baudouin Foundation.
Solvay concentrates its philanthropic and funding efforts at corporate level on science promotion, education, and youth employability, and in some circumstances it supports humanitarian initiatives in response to certain disasters and/or situations where the products or services are of particular value.
The Solvay Institutes were founded by Ernest Solvay in 1912 to support and develop curiosity-driven research in physics, chemistry, and associated fields with the purpose of "enlarging and deepening the understanding of natural phenomena".
The central activity of the Institutes is the periodic organization of the celebrated Solvay Conferences on Physics and Chemistry ("Conseils de Physique Solvay" and "Conseils de Chimie Solvay"). To complement this support for fundamental science, the Group organizes open workshops on specific selected topics, international chairs, colloquia, and an international doctoral school.
In addition to these activities, the Solvay Institutes promote the popularization of science by organizing the annual Solvay public lectures devoted to today's biggest scientific challenges.
In 2018, Solvay supported a new initiative from the Institutes: "The New Horizons Solvay Lectures", given by young scientists who have already made a name for themselves and attained some stature in their field. They deliver one general interest lecture at the Solvay Institutes on their current research and the challenges they see for their discipline, and then a second complementary lecture at another Belgian university. Lectures are encouraged whenever possible, as are scientific discussions with a range of Belgian research groups working in similar fields.
Learn Education is Thailand's leading educational technology social enterprise. It provides an innovative, online blended learning approach to engage students through culturally relevant material and lessens overworked teachers' workloads. Since 2011, it has helped more than 25,000 students and 200 teachers.
In January 2018, Solvay and the Ellen MacArthur Foundation signed a three-year Global Partner agreement that gives the Group an opportunity to make a difference in accelerating the transition to a circular economy in the chemicals sector.
Solvay joined the World Alliance for Efficient Solutions, created by Solar Impulse founder Bertrand Piccard, to promote efficient technologies, processes, and systems that help improve the quality of life on earth. Alliance members include start-ups, companies, institutions, and organizations.
By combining the forces of governments, corporations, and international institutions, the Alliance will amplify their ability to share experiences and create synergies in order to develop and implement concrete solutions to reach environmental and health targets.
Solvay is the world's leading producer of guar derivatives. Since 2015, Solvay has been spearheading a large-scale development initiative to make guar cultivation more sustainable while boosting the incomes of the farmers who produce it. Guar is a drought-resistant legume grown in semi-arid areas, predominantly in India. Rajasthan accounts for approximately 70% of the country's production.
In collaboration with L'Oreal and Henkel, two strategic customers active in Personal Care, and with the support of the NGO TechnoServe, more than 7,000 farmers in Bikaner were trained over four years, and more than 860 kitchen gardens were developed in 36 villages.
The initiative's primary objective is to encourage sustainable and climate-smart agriculture, thereby increasing farmers' revenues through good guar cultivation practices for seed selection, seed treatment, sowing, and pest management.
Improving health and hygiene practices for themselves and their children.
Lastly, the initiative focuses on agroforestry, with more than 59,000 trees planted to fight sand movement and soil erosion in the fields. The outcome means guar farmers can earn a better living, global buyers can obtain higher quality guar, and the market can benefit from improved supply security.


I don't usually post political matters, but if you live in the United States, it's essential that you call your Representative and ask him/her to oppose the Stop Piracy Online Act (SOPA). This act is a dangerous piece of censorship that would allow shutting down websites on the suspicion of piracy. Libraries, universities, and even science blogs like mine might be affected. Please act now!

Yesterday was the birthday of Tycho Brahe, born December 14, 1546. He was the greatest of the naked-eye astronomers, and despite his rejection of the Copernican model, his observations led Johannes Kepler to the laws of planetary motion and our modern view of the Solar System. Tycho's astronomy was made possible by his array of fantastic scientific instruments, highlighted in this online exhibit. He was also known as a bit of a hothead, and had to wear a prosthetic nose after getting part of his proboscis trimmed in a swordfight.

Posted: Fri Jun 12, 2009 12:18 pm Post subject: Sound Reflectors?
I'm also going to try cotton balls in the ears.
I use them in a Funk/Soul band that gets really loud and they help me hear myself as well as cut the high volume.
Warburton Dealer - PM me if you need anything!
I purchased a Sound Back adjustable "monitor" from Dillon Music and think it works great. Works especially well when you're playing "acoustic" in a smaller venue and don't want to blast directly into the audience. The only drawback is that it is not a clip on - it fits on your mic.
Personally, I don't use the plexi's as I use a clip on most of the time. We have a very good sound guy (who gives us a deal if we help set up/tear down) and depend on floor monitors.
My experience with ear plugs left me missing a lot of what was going on around me. I prefer a quiet stage, away from guitar amps, mains way in front etc. & a separate "horn" mix.
I played in a funk band years ago, and we used plexiglass shields that had a hole in the center that our own mics fit through. Most of our sound was reflected back at us. We had a monitor as well, but only sometimes. One gig we played in front of 120,000 had "hired" sound, and we had to use their mics, which were too big to fit in the holes in the center of the plexiglass. We had two sets a few hours apart. The first set, we played much too loud, because we couldn't hear ourselves. The second set was the pre-fireworks set, with the big crowd, and our chops were shot. I highly recommend some way to reflect the sound back to yourself. It was one of the best learning experiences of my career.
my ears are bleeding just thinking about plexi-glass monitors. I loath playing with loud amplified instruments. You can't hear the right parts of your sound you need to hear to play well without a plexiglass monitor, but when you do, it's usually pretty abrasive on your ears.
Posted: Wed Jun 17, 2009 9:50 pm Post subject: Re: Sound Reflectors?
I also second using earplugs as well. I use Hearos high frequency model.
Thanks for the suggestions. Part of the problem is that the horns aren't mic'd, so there's nothing to mount the plexiglass reflectors. It's the vocalist's monitors that are turned up to 11. It's so loud that the amped players can't even hear their axes.
I'm going to try cotton balls. There's a passage in Roger Ingram's book where Bobby Shew recommended cotton balls, but Roger tried more expensive ear plugs, only to discover that the cotton balls worked better. Since I'm cheap, I'm going to go straight to cotton balls.
But I'm going to try the plexiglass reflectors (the Sound Back models look perfect) on my next mic'd gig.
Thanks again brothers and/or sisters.
I've used the Soundback, and as others have mentioned, it REALLY allows you to hear yourself in amplified situations. And it will help balance in smaller settings, so as not to part the hair of folks dancing or sitting near the stage. My current problem with one of my bands is the sound guy we have is, let's say, not always on top of things. Consequently, because I often have to throw something at him to get his attention when my mike needs a bit of a tweak upwards in volume, I don't use the Soundback with this particular band anymore. Instead of it being a useful tool for balance, it becomes an obstacle I have to overcome. Again, no fault of the product, it's this particular guy.
I bought a $12.00 lapel mic that I clipped onto my bell, and a $3.00 pair of earbuds that would still let in a suitable amount of ambient sound. I plugged these into my Yamaha Silent Brass. It worked very well.
Thanks for all the suggestions. When I play my next mic'ed gig, I'll buy the clear plastic sound reflectors.
Ok, I use both clip on mics and ones on the stand and I use a sound back for both.
Guys who need ear plugs will hurt you more than help you, including cotton. If you block out natural sound, your in trouble. If you have in ear monitors thats the way to go.
So, I use the soundback with an SM57 Beta and a Shure 98h Beta clip on wireless system. With the wireless, I take a mic stand and have custom made an attachment to a soundback to attach it to the stand. I never play with out it. I am also toying with the idea of hooking up an additional mic somehow and a set of earbuds from the board to hear what I'm playing. But what i have works well right now.
When I play in an amplified setting, I've also been using a sound back reflector that fits around the mic on the mic stand. This works good as long as you play directly into it and don't move around too much.
These look very interesting. Do any of you have experience with these?
As a sound engineer, I hated these reflector gizmos. They seriously compromise the frequency response of the microphone, as is to be expected if you put a hard reflective surface so close to a microphone. Numerous deep notches in the frequency response are to be expected with these things. Any trumpet player using these things should understand that their sound is likely to be significantly degraded. They can really make you sound like &^%$@, in other words.
They they can also mess with the directional characteristics of the mic, leading to a greater likelihood of squealing sound-system feedback.
As a trumpet player, I just won't play in a band that's so loud that reflectors are needed for the trumpet players to hear themselves. Fortunately, I don't depend on playing the trumpet to support myself.

Create a visually stunning piece for your home. This pillow starts as a very long tube, then it's then stuffed and cleverly woven around itself to form a knot. Instructions are included in the pattern for tying the knot.
You will need a large amount of fiberfil for this pillow.
I would highly encourage anyone attempting this to undo and retry the knot if your pillow doesn't look like the photos. The knitting is the time consuming part, and you don't want to end up unhappy with your project- please take the time to get the weaving/knot formation correct.
