Elfviksleden kallas en nio kilometer lång vandringsled. Den sträcker sig längs med norra Lidingön, från Lidingö centrum till Elfviks udde i Lidingö kommun.

Allmänt
Elfviksleden invigdes den 4 juni 2012 av Ida Drougge dåvarande ordförande för Lidingö stads tekniska nämnd. Under mottot "från stad till skärgård" var det meningen att erbjuder dem som vandrar på leden allt från tättbebyggd stadsmiljö med kulturhistoriskt intressant arkitektur till vacker skärgårdsnatur med vida vyer över vikar och fjärdar. En vandring på Elfviksleden är även en vandring genom Lidingös historia.

Elfviksleden är inte helt nyanlagd. Stora delar existerade redan förut i form av olika promenadstråk och utgörs exempelvis längs Kyrkviken av Lidingöloppets spår. Hela sträcken rustades upp, kompletterades med bland annat grill- och rastplatser och fick enhetlig markering genom orangea plåtskyltar med påskrift "Elfviksleden". Natur- och parkenheten vid Lidingö stad stod för det praktiska arbetet.

I och med upprustningen av Elviksleden har kommunen även tagit fram en vandringskarta med sevärdheter och rastplatser. Från Lidingö centrum till Kyrkviken är underlaget asfalterad gång- och cykelväg, därefter grusad vandringsled med asfalterade avsnitt. Elviksleden är ingen rundvandring och kan gärna tas etappvis. Framkomligheten uppges som "lätt" samt "barnvagns- och cykelvänlig".

Beskrivning (från väster till öster)

Från Lidingös stadshus till Kyrkviken
Startpunkten är strax norr om Lidingö stadshus vid Lidingö centrum där vandringen börjar på Stockholmsvägen som inom centrumanläggningen är utbyggd som en affärskantad gågata. Man passerar under Lejonvägen och går på en parkväg parallellt med Kyrkvägen österut. Till höger och vänster märks två äldre bostadshus: Centralpalatset från 1913 och Vasaborgen från 1923. Framför Vasaborgen ligger Hästskojarparken uppkallad efter skulpturen Hästskojaren av Sven Lundqvist, rest 2008.

Sedan följer man i princip på Norra Lidingöbanans numera upprivna spår, idag en separat gång- och cykelväg. På vänster sida ligger Vattängens gård där Lidingö villastad hade sitt kontor i början av 1900-talet. Kort därefter möter man före detta Hersbyholm, Norra Lidingöbanans enda kvarvarande stationshus, idag restaurang. Efter knappt 200 meter syns Telefonvillan från 1911, som var den unga villastadens telefon-, post- och telegrafstation. Intill ligger Norra Lidingöbanans gamla vagnhall, numera squashhall med restaurang, hotell och gym. Därefter passerar man Näsets kvarn, en väderkvarn som tillhört Hersby gård och Kvarnskolan från 1875 som var en av de första för sitt ändamål byggda skolhusen på Lidingö. Rakt fram ligger nu Kyrkvikens inre del och Lidingövallen. Till höger syns Lidingö kyrka.

Från Kyrkviken till Hustegaholm
I det inre av Kyrkviken låg traditionellt den så kallade kyrkbryggan för besökare som skulle till Lidingö kyrka och kom med båt. Vandringen fortsätter sedan längs med Kyrkvikens norra sida där man passerar en mäktig naturminnesmärkt ek som är en av två naturminnen på Lidingön, båda är ekar vid Kyrkviken. De fridlystes 1969, den större hade då ett stamomkrets på 684 centimeter (mätt i brösthöjd). Efter naturminnet ligger på höger hand Kyrkvikens enda ö; Boholmen. Via en bro kan man göra en avstickare dit. Här har kommunen iordningställd rast- och grillplats.

Högt upp till vänster skymtar Villa Gadelius ritad 1961 av arkitekt Ralph Erskine för affärsmannen Taro Gadelius. Därefter syns rödmålade Villa Rudalid, en typisk sommarvilla från 1900-talets början, idag plats för en Montessori förskola. Villans tomt var ursprungligen mark som hörde till Rudboda gård. Strax öster om villan passerar man gränsen till Långängen-Elfviks naturreservat och når Hustegaholm. Man kan göra en intressant omväg dit, men Elfviksleden svänger innan Hustegaholm norrut och korsar Hjalmar Arwins väg, en vacker lindallé uppkallad efter Hjalmar Arwin, som grundade Lidingö villastad och hade Hustegaholm som sommarbostad.

Från Hustegaholm till Kristinehäll
Vandringsleden sträcker sig nu norr om fågelskyddsområdet Gråviken där man från en brygga kan skåda fåglar. Här börjar en mycket lantlig del av vandringen. Vägen slingrar sig mjukt genom ett gammalt odlings- och kulturlandskap vilket en gång i tiden tillhört gårdarna Västra Yttringe och Östra Yttringe. Västra Yttringe gård ägs av Iranska staten och inhyser, gömt bakom höga staket, Irans ambassad i Stockholm. Östra Yttringe gård är privatbostad. En informationstavla vid vägen gör uppmärksam på Östra Yttringe gamla tomt, numera ett fornminne. Här finns bebyggelselämningar efter av fem husgrunder och två källargrunder. Strax före Östra Yttringe gård med huvudbyggnad från 1801 svänger leden söderut och går förbi sommarvillorna Fredrikshäll, Bellevue och Kristinehäll. Högt upp till vänster, intill Elfviksvägen syns Oskarshäll och Hustega gård. Hustega införlivades i slutet av 1800-talet med Östra Yttringe. 1894 revs den ursprungliga mangården och ersattes av nuvarande sommarvilla.

Från Kristinehäll till Elfvsviks udde
Vandringsleden följer sedan Hustegafjärdens norra strand, förbi bostadsområdet Furutorp. Till höger, på fjärdens södra sida, syns Gåshaga med Gåshaga brygga och på vänstra sida märks konferensanläggningen Skogshem & Wijk Meetings Events, ritad 1958 och 1969 av arkitekt Anders Tengbom för SAF. Därefter dyker ytterligare en intressant byggnad upp, Villa Kullen med bevarat badhus vid stranden, ritad 1894 av arkitekt Isak Gustaf Clason.

Efter Rönneberga kurs- och konferensanläggning och Villa Söderås når man slutligen Elfviks gård som gav namn åt vandringsleden. Långt upp på Elfviks gårds herrgårdspark syns själva huvudbyggnaden från 1800-talet och med anor från 1700-talet. Stället besöktes ofta av Carl Michael Bellman, 1788 av honom omskriven i den så kallade Lidingösången. Gårdens ekonomibyggnader ligger ovanför (norr om) huvudbyggnaden och vid stranden står gårdens rödmålade tvättstuga och båthus. Gården ägs av Lidingö kommun och är det enda aktiva jordbruket på Lidingön.

Här lämnar man Hustagafjärdens strand för att gå mot norr och runda den stora konferensanläggningen Blue Hotel, byggd mellan 1966 och 1969 som kursgård för IBM efter ritningar av ELLT arkitektkontor. Från hotellet leder en lång trappa ner till Elfviksledens strandpromenad. På vägen passerar man Villa Elfviks udde uppförd 1911 för finansmannen  Jonas Kjellberg efter ritningar av Ragnar Östberg.

På Elfviks udde står ett ekotempel, ursprungligen uppfört omkring sekelskiftet 1900 för Albert Janse, dåvarande ägare av Elfviks gård. Byggnaden nyttjas idag av Blue Hotel. På udden har vandringsleden nått sitt mål. Strandstigen vid Elfviks udde är Lidingöns ostligaste väg som bjuder på skärgårdsnatur med vida vyer över Höggarnsfjärden och Stockholms inlopp, där bland annat finlandsfärjorna passerar.

Last month, at the Impact Travel Alliance Melbourne (ITA Melbourne) film screening event, I had the honour of being MC. ITA is a group of change-makers and volunteers in tourism who believe it is time to mainstream sustainable travel. We chose Max and Jeremy's "Chasing Tomorrow" to screen because it tells the story of adventurous travellers who discover people grappling with climate change and making their own future, community by community. Their travels and stories give us hope and expose us to transformational ideas.
I'm sure many of you are asking: Can travel ever be sustainable? While it isn't simple, I think it can, because travel has the power to be transformational for both the travellers and the locals. Of course, to become sustainable it will need to change, which is why I'm part of the effort by ITA to spread that change.
Our launch event this September was a packed event with 4 incredible speakers, including Ingrid from G Adventures, our sponsor. But for our second event we wanted to be a bit more intimate so we could have a conversation with the filmmakers. We followed the hour long inspiring documentary with a live Q&A. Max and Jeremy were so generous with their time and with honest answers to hard questions. Their passion came through even on the grainy video call from France.
One of the most challenging questions they got was how we, as digital nomads, can contribute to long term change since we are so often moving from place to place. Max and Jeremy told us how their work finding and highlighting stories has changed the conversations they have about these important topics. Before, they encountered avoidance, now they find the same people embracing the potential to change. They changed the conversation from "you should" to "you can", because they travelled and collected stories that touched people and ignited their imaginations.
They left us with the inspiring mantra: "Find people, Break rules".
Everywhere they went, the people making a difference had formed communities of people who cared and then broke rules to get where they needed to go. My favourite was the 72 year-old woman telling us about her edible city. She lives by the idea that when the outcome is a more liveable city, it is better to beg forgiveness than ask permission. And so far their group has been picking more fruit than eating humble pie. Because once a good idea takes root, it's hard to fight against it, especially when you can literally pick the fruits of their labour.
As travellers, we are the collectors and sharers of stories. We bridge worlds so that our communities do not become isolated and stuck in old ways of thinking. True, we can't all be travellers all the time, in fact that's part of responsible travel — to stay local more often. But when we do go, we make conscious choices.
We are conscious of the costs and careful to offset our travel footprint with tools like this carbon calculator. Note that a flight emits the same emissions as if each passenger drove a car separately the same distance. So if the flight is going anyway, it is actually a better choice to fly than to drive.
We do our research on Ecosia so that our searches plant trees. Over 43 million trees so far!
We make sure we connect with the people providing our food, our rides and our tours. Treating them like the humans they are and observing whether our presence is helping or hurting the locals.
We make sure we select operators that keep the money local and treat their employees well.
We seek advice from those who have gone before, for example, to ensure we are diving with the right boats so the reefs are still there next season. Max and Jeremy recommend conservation dive operators whenever possible.
We choose to go to less crowded destinations to ease our collective footprint. Even if that means missing some of the top 10 items on the list.
We respect the locals when the beach is closed to repair or the trail capacity is limited to 100 per day.
We bring our own water bottles and chopsticks.
We choose to travel when it makes a difference to who we are and to those we come in contact with.
Travel that is not just transactional but also transformational is out there, beyond the ads and beyond the cheap tickets. It's waiting for you in your communities, led by the people you respect that are creating transformational programs. They are people like Mandeep Kour, Liz Volpe, Scott Watters and so many more.
Some of them use YouLi to share and manage these incredible experiences. I hope you're lucky enough to be invited to one and maybe someday inspired enough to create your own.
In the meantime, follow ITA Melbourne on Facebook and keep an eye out for us at the Sustainable Living Festival in Melbourne in Feb 2019. If you're not in Melbourne, find your local ITA chapter or start one!

The key enzyme used in CRISPR genome editing has competition.
The enzyme Cas12a, also known as Cpf1, is more precise for use in genome editing than the currently widely-adopted Cas9, suggests research published in Molecular Cell. Concerns over the accuracy of CRISPR/Cas9 were raised by research last year (see BioNews 903).
'The overall goal is to find the best enzyme that nature gave us and then make it better still, rather than taking the first one that was discovered through historical accident,' said study co-author Dr Ilya Finkelstein, assistant professor at the University of Texas at Austin.
For genome editing, scientists have repurposed the CRISPR-guided Cas proteins from the immune systems of bacteria, where they target and cut the DNA of invading viruses. To do this, the enzymes are highly specific to the DNA sequences they bind, and it is this capability that researchers have harnessed to precisely target and modify the genomes of other organisms. Although most work has centred around Cas9, other enzymes exist.
In questioning whether CRISPR/Cas9 is the best choice for genome editing, Dr Finkelstein and the team set out to test if another system – CRISPR/Cas12a – might be a better candidate in terms of specificity and reducing off-target effects. To do this, they closely studied its basic biochemistry.
The specificity of CRISPR/Cas targeting is achieved via a molecule in the enzyme complex: guide RNA. Guide RNA 'decides' which region of genomic DNA the enzyme should bind to and subsequently cut. Cas9's guide RNA 'reads' a sequence of 20 DNA bases before binding.
In theory, this should be sufficient to generate a unique combination which only binds to one location in a genome. In practice, this is not always the case. Cas9 can tolerate a certain proportion of 'mismatches' in the target sequence. What this means is it can bind and cut at regions other than the one desired, inducing off-target effects – a key concern surrounding medical applicability of CRISPR/Cas9.
This is where the research team found Cas12a differs: it also binds to a 20 base sequence, but in a different manner. While Cas9 only reads the first seven or eight bases of the 20 letter guide sequence before binding, Cas12a reads them all: and will not bind if a single one is wrong. This choosiness ensures that it is much less likely to bind anything except the specified sequence, and off-target effects occur to a much smaller extent.
However, Cas12a may not be a perfect successor to Cas9. A study published in Science in 2015 showed that while it is highly specific in cutting double-stranded DNA, the normal state of DNA in cells, it is an indiscriminate cutter when DNA is single-stranded, which is the form of DNA present when replication is occurring.
Dr Finkelstein told Axios that Cas12a tends to be tightly associated with one DNA strand after the genome is cut, and that they do not know how this would affect genome editing.
A better enzyme for CRISPR gene editing?
Researchers have revealed the structure and action of a new type of 'molecular scissors' known as Cpf1, which may improve CRISPR genome editing.

Venice grad sets career path toward meteorology
By DALE WHITEdale.white@heraldtribune.com
The tornado that ravaged Moore, Okla., last week did more than catch the attention of Venice High School senior Jarrett Quinn. It made him all the more determined to proceed with his chosen career.
In about three months, 18-year-old Jarrett will be bound for the University of Oklahoma — just minutes away from suburban Moore — to study his life-long passion, meteorology.
That passion started when, at age 3, he watched a National Geographic documentary about weather.
"I've always been fascinated by weather, especially tornadoes."
Before his parents, James and Lynn Quinn, moved the family to this area from Trenton, N.J., when he was an eighth-grader, Jarrett took advantage of a Philadelphia television station's occasional offer to do its weather report from a viewer's backyard.
Jarrett convinced the station's meteorologist to air a segment from the Quinn household's backyard. "They actually let me do the forecast."
Jarrett, who knows how to read radar, has amassed a large collection of books and videos about his favorite topic and has several apps on his cellphone for weather-related services. He is a devotee of the Weather Channel and maintains a Facebook page titled "Southwest Florida Weather."
Everyone who knows him knows of his interest in becoming a forecaster. "Everyone asks me: 'Is it going to storm today?' 'Is it going to rain?'"
Quinn is among 425 seniors about to graduate from Venice High and is definitely among those who have most impressed the faculty.
"Jarrett is a pleasure to have in class," government teacher Daniel Rubin said. "He is a conscientious student possessing a high degree of intellectual curiosity. He is always prepared for class and contributes substantially to class discussions. Jarrett's work ethic is clearly rewarded by solid academic results."
Those results earned him an Air Force ROTC scholarship to the university with the largest meteorological school in the nation, which shares its campus building with the National Weather Service.
After he earns his college degree, Jarrett intends to become a meteorologist for the Air Force. After four years, when he goes into the reserves, he wants to become one of the Air Force's "hurricane hunters."
"They fly into the hurricane itself, take measurements and find the exact location of the eye," Jarrett said.
The devastating tragedy in Moore just makes him more committed to go where nature is inflicting its wrath.
"In light of recent events, it makes me want to go there even more," said Jarrett, who stayed overnight in Moore when he attended a university open house. "I not only want to chase tornadoes but to help in the aftermath."
After a stint with the Air Force, Jarrett hopes to get experience with the National Weather Service and then become an on-screen forecaster for the Weather Channel.
His next step on that long journey will be to don a cap and gown and get his high school diploma during the upcoming commencement ceremony on the school's football field — "weather permitting."

We've spent a few days looking at exactly how a diet high in sugars and grains causes weight gain by raising insulin levels which cause the body to go into "fat storage" mode but that's not the whole story. These same chronically high levels of insulin also drive levels of inflammation which in turn drive most metabolic diseases. We will spend the next few weeks looking at individual diseases but for now, let's take a bird's eye view of the process.
Your body has been finely tuned by evolution for one purpose, to keep you physically fit and healthy enough to pass your genetic code to the next generation. This is the main reason our bodies seem to deteriorate so rapidly once we pass those child bearing years, we just don't have an evolutionary reason for continued optimum health.
Now add to this the fact the the human race as consumed primarily animal products for most of its existence. If you were to condense all of human history into a year, we would have only developed agriculture yesterday. This means that humans are excellent at processing fat and protein but have a much more difficult time dealing with grains and sugar as these were not a substantial part of our diet for most of the time we have been around. In fact, the only way most of our ancestors got any fructose in our diet was from fruits, which only appeared at the end of the growing seasons just before winter. Our bodies didn't really deal with fructose at all, it just shunted it off to fat cells to be stored for the coming winter. So fructose has been evolutionarily designed to make us fat which is fine if we only eat fruit for 1 month a year before a long period of famine but now fructose is in our diet every day and we never have any times of famine.
So our bodies developed the insulin response to deal with the high blood sugar levels that came from eating the processed grains we just started developing. Insulin does a great job of lowering blood sugar levels but at a cost to our overall health. It is comparable to a slow acting poison that does its job in the moment at the cost of your health in a few decades time.
Here is a look at a few of the diseases that are caused by chronically high levels of insulin and the inflammation it causes. We look at these more in depth in the coming few days.
PCOS – We now know that PCOS is nothing more that insulin resistance in the ovaries. Reduce your insulin and the risk of this drops dramatically.
Increased VLDL – We used to think of all LDL Cholesterol as "bad cholesterol" but we now know that LDL occurs in several different sizes and it is the VLDL particles that do the damage we associate with bad cholesterol. What causes VLDL? Not dietary fat as it was once thought but carbohydrates.
Coronary Disease – Insulin damages the walls of the main arteries feeding your heart. In fact the plaque build up that happens in the arteries of people with advanced heart disease isn't caused by the cholesterol, it's cause by insulin damaging the walls of the arteries at which point the body tries to cover the damage with a layer of cholesterol just like the body would scab over a cut on the outside of your body. Reduce your insulin, that will reduce the damage to the vessels which will cause less build up.
Alzheimers – Many doctors now call Alzheimer's Type III Diabetes because it has the same root as type II, namely high blood sugar and high insulin levels. If you would like to learn more about the effect of carbs on the brain, I highly recommend Dr Perlmutter's book Grain Brain.
Macular Degeneration – Increased blood sugar and insulin cause damage to your eyesight over time.
There are more but I hope this gives you some idea of the chronic, long term damage a diet high in carbohydrates can cause.

Let's face it, grey or silver hair designs were hardly the easiest predicted of hairstyles. A few years ago, if someone had told you to embrace the grey, you probably would have laughed in their face. But, these days, metallic silver, grey, and even rose gold and peachy-gold hair is a very serious must-have. And that's why we've decided to take a closer look.
There are so any variations of these brilliant silver hair designs now, and you can add any number of differing shades to create a multi-tonal, balayage, and even ombre look.
Grey is one of those shades that just so happens to go with basically every other shade on the palette, making it one of the most versatile colours you could opt for this season.
We're totally loving this silver and pink look, brighter and with more of a pop of colour at the top, graduated into those silver locks at the bottom.
Why not play around with the colour palette a little while you're in the silver hair designs stage of your life? While you have a shade that you can do basically anything with, it would b a shame not to take complete advantage of that!
When trying to achieve these grey and silver hair designs you may notice that your hair has a slight lilac tinge to it. When we tried to achieve luscious metallic locks like this, ours certainly had a purple hue to it, and we soon learned that we had been leaving out silver / grey toner in for too long.
In fact, even the blondes in the CherryCherryBeauty den had a hard time achieving the silver shade. The toners we had always went lilac, and the best silver dye we found was spotted in Superdrug.
When you want to go grey (and not in the natural way), you need to be prepared for the work that will need to go into a look like this. To start with, you'll need to make sure that your hair is in good condition, so that'll mean using intensive conditioning treatments that are specifically designed for your hair.
If you have dry hair, use products that are specifically deigned for dry hair. If you have coloured hair, use products that are designed for coloured hair. Do you see where we're going with this? For a few weeks before making such a drastic hair colour change, conditioning and intensive treatments should be at the forefront of your mind. If you go to the hairdressers with badly conditioned hair, the colour you come out with may not be your desired result.
With the smallest of tweaks you could make your silver hair designs completely unique to you. You could add a slightly darker or lighter tone, or add another shade completely, just like the lilac tinges that you can see here.
In fact, do you remember when we told you about the silver and grey hair dyes causing our hair to become silver with purple tinges? Well, this silver hair look is a great way to combat that problem, and work in the two shades.
Overnight masks and hot oil treatments are a really great option for when you want to pump some life into your hair, and fast. However, if you don't have any to hand, you can just use your regular conditioner. Here's a little trip that we like to use, and one that'll definitely come in handy before you start those bleaching treatment necessary for these silver hair designs.
Have a shower in the evening before you go to bed, and wash your hair like you usually would. Rather than adding conditioner and then rinsing it out after a few minutes however, get out, towel dry your hair, and follow your regular before-bed routine. Just before you get into bed, smother your hair in your regular (or even a cheapie) conditioner, and put a towel over your pillowcase. Sleep with the conditioner in overnight, and when you wash it out in the morning, your hair will be super soft and with an added boost of nutrients.
If you have darker hair naturally, you'll need to bleach your locks first, and in fact, even blonde hair may need a little lightening before opting for these shiny silver shades. One trick that will prove especially useful if you're a brunette, or have naturally darker hair, is to go for a balayage – ombre look with darker roots.
This will make everything much easier to fade out – darker roots with lighter hair is never a good look when it's done the wrong way, right?
If you already have coloured hair, the first thing you'll want to do if you want super shiny, glossy hair like the silver hair designs you can see here, is stop dyeing it. The more you dye it, the more product you're putting on your hair, and that product will need to be stripped out before the lightening, and then silvering, process can begin.
Dyeing your hair creates product build-up, a great reason to do a serious cleansing wash before you opt for the colour change. Product build-up won't be even either – it'll make your grey or silver hair designs come out patchy. In fact, if you try to add dye to existing dyed-hair, any look will come out patchy.
The purple in the toner will help to completely get rid of those brassy yellow tones left by the bleaching process. When you look at a colour wheel, yellow and lilac are two opposite sides of it, so they'll cancel each other out. After this, you should have a basically white base on which you can start to build your grey and silver tones.
When you go for the chop, opt for a good cut too. At the very least, have a good trim. There are many benefits to having a good hair cut when you want to go for a drastic colour change, but one of the most important ones should be hair-health.
When you have lots of dead ends and hair in your mane, you're wasting precious nutrients. The nutrients that you're putting into your body are going to already basically dead hair, rather than focusing on the healthier hair around it which could be growing much stronger. In turn, that'll get weak, brittle and broken too. In short, a good hair cut is essential if you want silver hair designs like these.
Once the bleaching is complete, it's time for colouring, and that's when you and your colourist get to have a little fun. What kind of look are you going for? What kind of silver hair designs do you want? Are you looking for a warmer tone? A cooler one? One with a pop of colour in it, perhaps?
The best thing to do to make sure your hair stylist completely understands you is take a bunch of photos with you. Rather then describe your perfect silver shade, show them. Complete understanding is necessary – communication is vital!
When you want silver hair designs that'll really help you to stand out in the crowd, how about this pink-root and silver number? It's bright, beautiful, and definitely bold – all the b's we're looking for in our next hair 'do.
This is a great idea when you have a big event coming up and you want to look your best, but can't quite find the time to make yourself a hair salon appointment. You can achieve this look with temporary and semi-permanent dyes, and it'll wash right out before you need to go back to work on Monday morning.
If you're in the market for a new hair shade or colour, but want the most minimal of commitment, these silver hair designs really are for you. They wash out easily, nicely, and quickly, meaning you can switch it up once you're bored of the colour without any problems.
The one problem you will have with a look as bold as this one is that you'll need to go through a lot of lightening and pre-treatments before you can actually go grey, so to speak. Your hair will need to be basically White before you add the cleverly blended shades of silver, grey, blue and purple that will cause you to go this beautiful silver shade.
It'll only take around four weeks for these silver hair designs to wash or fade out, so if you want to keep the look fresh for longer, there are a few at-home tricks you can use.
We used silver shampoo when we had grey hair, and that made the fade out really easy. In fact, this purple shampoo has given a great pastel effect to the fade-out of quite a few coloured we've rocked.
Also, adding some of your grey hair dye to your shampoo and conditioner can help to inject a boost of colour every time you wash your hair. Washing is quite bad for it though, and if you don't want your silver hair to fade quick, you should wash your hair as little as possible.
We showed you pink roots, and now we're bringing you a hint of lilac. What do you think about this peekaboo purple and silver hair designs? It's perfect for when you want to incorporate some colour into your look, but without something that'll be too over-the-top.
One thing we will say about hair looks such as these is that you should probably leave the hair dye on for longer than it says on the tub. Your hair stylist will know how long to leave the colour on your hair for, but at home it can often be trickier to work out. We always leave our hair dye for almost double the length of time that it states on the box in some cases, and because it's super conditioning and there are no dangerous components in most of the coloured shades you'll find, you'll be doing your hair some good too!
Another beautifully blended look, there's a hint of pink in this one, perfect for when you want to be cute and girlie, but again, not too much.
If you were growing out another colour, for example pink, an ombre like this is a great way of trying a new look, whilst at the same time growing out your old one. The pink would fade out and make itself further and further down your hair, and you touch up the roots with lightening and silver hair designs. It's multifunctional, and we LOVE that!
How about silver and blue? That's one we haven't really looked at in great depth before, but you must admit, there's something super cool about this one. Another way of playing around with the ends, it just goes to show how something as different as a change of shade can change the whole look.
This is virtually the same kind of idea as the one before, but the colours have been changed – a darker grey, and the blue instead of the pink.
Getting the right tone of silver hair designs is important to make sure that you are happy with the finished look. It is definitely well worth having a contusion with a hair colourist before you take any drastic action, and if you're doing the look at home in your own bathroom, ask a couple of friends, co-workers, or relatives. You will need to get honest opinions on this – the wrong shade of grey or silver will make you look washed out, not fashionably in.
One of the easiest ways to tell whether or not a silver or grey shade will work for you will be to look at your skin tone. If you have cool skin but quite grey or yellow veins, you have a warm tone, and this means that you are open to the silver colour spectrum. Warmer tones are better, so think darker shades of gunmetal grey rather than a lighter, brighter pop.
On the other hand, if, when you look at your veins, they appear to be either purple or blue in colour, you have a cooler skin tone. This means the lighter, brighter shades will look fabulous on you.
We'll be honest, we're totally obsessed with the idea of this look – a wonderful denim blue balayage ombre into that bright and shiny silver shade at the bottom. It's one of our favourites, and definitely one we're thinking about recreating for ourselves. How about you? Which one has been your favourite so far?
If you're really not sure about that silver look, but for some reason can't let the idea of having silver hair designs go, how about trying the look before you buy it? You can easily do with this with silver hair sprays, and there are plenty of temporary or semi-permanent dyes out there that you can play around with beforehand.
Going grey is a big move if you're not quite sure, and it'll put your hair through a lot of stress, causing a lot of damage, if you get it done, decide you don't like it, and then decide to go for a change.
There are a few things you should bear in mind once you've walked out of the hair salon with your beautiful new silver hair designs, and these will make a difference to how long your colour lasts, and how good your hair looks.
Firstly – all that bleaching will have been very harsh on your hair, so conditioner is going to be your best friend now. We've been using an Argan oil spray on our hair for a while, and we must admit that it's made a difference. It's a leave-in spray, and we'd highly suggest that you check it out!
Secondly – make sure that you're using either a silver shampoo, or a shampoo designed for coloured hair. It won't take long before those silver hair designs fade out. Also, the less frequently you wash it, the longer your new hair will last.
Thirdly – avoid white shirts for a few days after you've had your hair dyed. You should also put a towel down on your pillow. There is a good chance your hair will run a little for the next few days, especially if you've done your look at home, and you don't want to ruin your bedding or your clothes.
If you've felt inspired by any of the silver hair designs we've shown you, make sure you come back and let us know about it. We want to know your favourites, and we want to see how great you look when you tried them for yourselves.

Find out how these schools inspire and encourage the littlest of learners.
"Finnish researchers from the University of Helsinki found that infants are capable of learning at a very young age, and were already learning in their mothers' wombs," explains Charlotte Wong, Head of Infant Care & Toddler for Kinderland Educare Services. She cites early exposure to music, for example, in increasing abilities in many areas, including temporal and spatial reasoning as well as skills critical for learning math concepts.
Likewise, all of Kinderland's outlets aim to promote and support the development of self-help skills in children. Its Yio Chu Kang campus, for instance, features a self-help kitchenette, which motivates children to take pride in their achievements (e.g., serving themselves, clearing their trays), and is a developmental milestone for children aged 4 to 6 years old.
The Early Years program at Australian International School (AIS) is inspired by principles of the Reggio Emilia philosophy, which emphasises natural, child-led learning. The focus is on learning through play – children think they are just "having fun", when actually they are learning new things every day through playing and exploring.
One thing that sets AIS apart? Its Early Learning Village, which opened August 2017. This state-of-the-art facility was built especially for children aged 18 months to 6 years, and every detail – from the child-height windows and doors to sheltered play decks – has been designed with them in mind. Children benefit from the many exciting facilities, including a dedicated early learning swimming pool, a gym and classrooms with attached outdoor play space.
The curriculum at this kindy is enquiry-led through purposeful play. And, its core philosophy runs throughout the school – from EQ into IQ. "In other words, we focus on the emotional development and support of children in their early learning experiences," says Swallows and Amazons founder and director Jackie Barkham.
Unlike some pre-schools in Singapore, EtonHouse doesn't give its students any worksheets. Why? The curriculum at EtonHouse's preschools – the first in Singapore to become International Baccalaureate (IB) World Schools – is child-responsive and focuses on developing problem-solving, critical-thinking and other 21st century skills, so there's no need for standardised after-school work or other tuition programmes.
In addition, all of the EtonHouse teachers and assisting teachers have degrees and masters qualifications, and are carefully handpicked, with the low teacher-child ratio (starting from 1:4) allowing for individualised support, so that teachers can focus their lessons each child's interests.
"The learning environment in our schools is designed keeping in mind the latest research, innovation and best practice across international settings," explains Tina Stephenson-Chin, Director of Pedagogy. What's more, EtonHouse's purpose-built campuses are seen as "aesthetic spaces – with innovative and creative learning resources with large outdoor areas for exploration and inquiry," she says.
Shaping the first five years of a child is a shared responsibility between parents and early childhood educators. At GEMS World Academy (Singapore), the aim is to nurture independent learning skills. The Early Years curriculum (for kids aged 3 to 5 years) develops students' academic, social and emotional well-being, while focusing on international-mindedness and cultivating personal values.
In addition to this programme, GEMS Singapore will be launching a Full-Day Pre-Kindergarten Programme, as well as a Nursery Programme for children aged 2 to 3 years. And, because academic research has identified the learning environment as the "third teacher", the school is constantly modifying the surroundings to facilitate new experiences – with input from the students.


Salmon, whether eaten raw or cooked, has a rich flavor and a thick substance. Its fats add up to its taste, which is the reason why people enjoy salmon. Also, it goes well with various foods, making it a notable addition to your food recipes. In case you did not know, making ice cream and smoothies out of salmon is quite viable. However, the former requires a cryomill and the latter needs a blender, and if you intend to make salmon smoothies you should check out the best commercial blender for smoothies.
Although salmon by itself will not make you much smarter, eating it more often can boost your brain function. DHA or docosahexaenoic acid is one its components that it is rich in, and the substance participates in the formation of brain tissue. It is a fatty acid for both the central nervous system and the retina. Thus, eating salmon more often will at least help you think better and focus your attention on important matters. In fact, it can help lower the risk of acquiring degenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's and it also boosts the overall academic performance of students.
Salmon is rich in omega-3 fats, namely EPA and DHA. Both of them offer various cardiovascular benefits, one of which is decreasing the inflammatory response. It also lowers the likelihood of blood clots occurring. If you eat salmon more often, it can reduce the risk of arrhythmia, heart attacks, stroke, and high blood pressure.
If you eat salmon more often, you can avoid conditions such as osteoarthritis and other types of inflammatory joint diseases. Salmon is rich in peptides, and one of which is named calcitonin which helps regulate bone synthesis. Thus, eating salmon regularly can increase both bone density and strength.
You should eat salmon more often, as it has a rich taste and various health benefits. A few of these are improving brain function and cardiovascular health, as well as strengthening bones. There are even more reasons as to why you should be eating salmon, which means you should try them now.

Shakhaoat
The word 'Qurban' is Arabic. Which means dedication, gifts, approaches, ways to get closer. The word is also seen in Arabic languages. The person who devoted himself to the nearness of Allah, he is called as a sacrifice. The word is known in Arabic as 'Qurbani' in the Arabic word 'ya'. Which means my dedication, my gift, the way to gain contact with me. The things which are used as the means of getting closer to Allah are also called sacrificial ones. Whether it is the sacrificial animal or the object of worship or the general charity or donation. The work of every reward, which is expected to receive the blessings of Allah, is also called sacrificial. But in common terms, this term is used for animal sacrifice. So let's talk about History of Qurbani in Islam or History of Eid Ul Adha.
The word in the Quran has been used in three places. Allah says, 'Those who say that Allah has commanded us that we should not believe in any messenger unless he will offer us such a sacrifice which will consume the fire.' "[Surah 3, Al-Imran, 183}
The Jews invented this idiom for not observing the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him), that there was a rule to keep the offerings of the previous prophets in a field or in the mountains, then a fire came out of the sky and burnt it. This was the sign of acceptance of sacrifice or sadaqa. But this is not seen in your law. Basically, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and His people have given this feature by Allah, that instead of converting the sacrificial animals into the fire, it will be able to eat it or give it to the poor sinners.
Elsewhere, Allah has said, "Be the narration of the two sons of Adam (Cabbel and Habil). When they both sacrificed, one person's sacrifice was accepted and the other was not accepted. He said, I'll kill you. The other said, "Surely Allah accepts sacrifice of the righteous." (Surah 5, Ayat 27)
When Adam and Haoya come When the world came to birth and the reproduction and reproduction of the child began, twins were born like a son and a daughter from every womb. Then Adam A had no children except brother and sister. But brothers and sisters cannot be married to each other. Therefore, for the sake of the present necessity, Allah specifically decreed that the birth of twins and sons from the same womb would be considered as the brothers and sisters of each other. The marriage between them will be forbidden. But the child born from the next pregnancy will not be considered the sister born from the first birth. Their marriage will be legal. But, incidentally, Kabbil's innate sister was the supreme saint and Habil's sister-in-law was ugly. At the time of marriage, Habil's innate ugly sister falls in the category of Kavil. In this, Kabil became angry with Habil. He insisted that my innate sister should marry me. Adam Adam According to the law of his law, the ablution of the Kabbil refused. Then he said to remove the differences between Ka'bila and Habil, both of you would present their sacrifices for Allah. At that time there was a clear sign of the acceptance of slaughtering that there was a flame coming from the sky and the material of the sacrifice would be burnt back and lost again. The flame, which he did not catch, was considered rejected.
Among the difficult tests, Allah took in the trial of Prophet Ibrahim, in which among them the test of the sacrifice of Ishmael was one of the trials. Prophets are subject to tests according to their respective dignity and place. He was ordered to sacrifice his son in a dream. The dreams of the Prophets are equivalent to the awakened status. He dreamed after three nights that Allah Ta'ala ordered his son to be sacrificed. According to some commentators, Ibrahim A. First of all, the seven days of Zilhajj night dream this night at eight o'clock tonight. The whole day is spent in anxiety, anxiety, and anxiety that the dream is not from God or the plot of Satan? So this day is called Yawmut Tarabiah (day of anxiety). He saw the same dream in the eight days of the night and the night. In Islam, the day has been named Yawmul Arafah. The next night too Ibrahim A. He sees the same dream and he realizes that this is a command of Allah. So this day is named Yomumun Nahr or the day of sacrifice. In spite of having a different interpretation of the dream, Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) He bowed before Allah's command.
The dreams of the Prophets are revealed. So there is no doubt about the dreams that the Prophets see. But this is not our dream. So if we dream of something that is not in the Shari'ah, then it can not be done. If someone dreamed that he would give a shirt or give a watch or a cow, go, or give a snake to such a sacred place, then it can not be done according to these dreams. Because these are illegal and illegal acts. However, if a person sees anything in the Shari'ah in a dream, then he has a dream.
The history of this sacrifice was briefly mentioned in just one place in the Qur'an. Allah said, 'He said, (Ibrahim A.) I went to my Lord. He must guide me on the right path. O my Lord! Give me a good child. Then We gave him the glad tidings of a stubborn son (Ishmael). Then when he reached the age of working with his father, Abraham said, son! I dream that I am slaughtering you. What is your opinion now? He said: O my father! Do what you have been commanded. By Allah's will you find me patient. When they both obeyed and Ibrahim a. Then he cried to his son, then I called him, 'O Abraham! If you truly follow the dream. In this way I reward the righteous. Surely this was a clear test. We freed him (Ishmael) and instead of sacrificing him a great creature. I have remembered it for later generations. Peace be upon Abraham! Thus do We reward the doers of good. He was one of my believing servants. {Surah 37 Safafat, Ayat-99-111}
According to history and commentary based on tafsir, it is known from the fact that when Ishmael reached the age of thirteen or near, then Ibrahim A. In front of an appropriate son, he said in a reply, "I dreamed that I am slaughtering you." Like a father and a future prophet. When he heard the father, he replied, Do as you are commanded. By Allah's will you find me patient. Some of the narrations suggest that the Prophet Abraham (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) After receiving the command to sacrifice, the son said to him, boy! Take ropes and knives, we will go to the Valley to collect the family's fuelwood. When he reached the lonely place of the valley, he informed the son about the sacrifice. Satan is the Prophet Abraham. Ismael A And he tried to deceive Hagar repeatedly. Ibrahim A When his son was ordered to slaughter, Satan met Ibrahim A at the place of 'Masaharul Haraam' and he defeated him. Then, after reaching Jamaatul Aqaba, to tempt the Prophet Abraham, he threw seven of his criminals after him and expelled him. Likewise, Jamaratul incarnation and finally Jamratul reached Kabra when he was barred from Satan Ibrahim. He threw the seven consecutive bumps in both places and expelled the devil and started to enforce Allah's command. Today, to save the memory of Haji Sahib every year, it is necessary to throw bangles in the Hajj season.
It has been narrated in the other way that the devil was deceived, that Satan came to the Prophet Hazrat Aa and said, "Do you know where Abraham took your son?" He said, went to the Valley to collect wood. Satan swore and said, "He has taken him to slaughter." Hazarah a north He said, never. He is more loving and affectionate towards him than me. At one stage Hajj. He said, if Allah had given him this command, then he would have done the best of obedience to Allah and surrendered before His command. Likewise, when Satan tried to deceive Isma'il al-Isra, then Ishmael A Seized him and released him. At last, when he tried to deceive Abraham, he said with a loud voice, "I must obey my Lord's command."
Prophet Abraham Tightened his eyes and tied his hands firmly on the advice of his son and started laying a knife in his own hands. But despite a lot of effort, a wool was not able to cut. During this difficult trial of the father, Allah said, 'O Abraham! You made the dream come true. Allah had placed a copper plate between the knife of the father and the son's voice. As a result, the knife can not touch the angle. Ibrahim A He opened the eyes and saw Gabriel. A deadly eugenol had been slaughtered by it. It was narrated that it was a paradise of dew to roam in Paradise for forty years. In another narration, it was an eighth of the sacrifice by Habil, son of Adam A.
According to Ibn Ishaq, a prominent Syratt expert, Isma'il A. Father said, O father! Tie me up while I'm sacrificing, so that I do not have blood because of my movement. The reward and reward can be reduced by this. Because, death is very difficult. I can jumper And make your knife sharp so that my hardship is limited. And keep my face down while lying down. Because I am afraid that if you look at your face, then your heart may get sidetracked, then it can obstruct the order of Allah. And if you feel good, then returning my shirt to my mother will be a source of peace for her. This was the final offer of the sacrifice
A question may arise that Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him) So he dreamed of sacrificing his son, while he did not sacrifice him. Then the Prophet's dream is true. In fact, Ibrahim A. In the dream he saw the son sacrificing. Sacrificed him and did not see him. Therefore, he had fulfilled his dreams, saw in the dream of sacrificing his life, and in reality, he carried the knife to the neck of the boy. But since he did not fulfill his dreams, he could not finish the sacrifice. Allaah has shown as much as he had dreamed of Ibrahim.
This wonderful test given is remembered by sacrificing animals in Tijh-i-ilhaj every year between Tauhidabad and Tawheed of mankind. This is how the example of the Father of the Nation passed the difficult test.
Habeled sheep, ewe He presented a good eighth offering for the sacrifice. And the work of Kabul was to work. He presented some grains, wheat etc. for the sacrifice. Then, according to the rules, a flaming fire came out of heaven and burnt the sacrifice of Abel, and the sacrifice of the Ka'bile was just as it was.
Elsewhere, Allah said, 'Then, instead of Allah, they did not help those whom they had adopted as a means of attaining the benefits (of the sacrifice). Rather they disappeared from them. This was their lie and a mystery. " (Surah 46 Ahqaf, Ayat 28) Once the people of Makkah who crossed the Syria tour, once the people of Samad and the people of Lot, were in the habitations. Allah Almighty destroyed them because of their unbelief and polytheism. Before that they destroyed them, they used to show signs, so that they would refrain from disbelief and polytheism. But they did not stop and were destroyed. Then, instead of Allah, those whom they adopted as (gods) for the nearness of God, they did not help them during the destruction and chastisement, but they got lost from them. That is to say that these deities were considered their deities and intercessors as their absolute mistake and inclined.

Ricky Rouse Has a Gun
John Aggs
Jörg Tittel
UK publisher / ISBN: SelfMadeHero - 978-1-906838-82-9
Categories: Action Thriller
Review by Karl Verhoven
It's not that William Chua's striking and symbolic cover is a misrepresentation, but based on it and the content accompanying it on the publisher's list, many may not expect Ricky Rouse has a Gun to be the graphic novel equivalent of a Bruce Willis action movie. Well, most of it, anyway.
The early part of the book is interesting. It feeds on the Chinese culture of 'shanzai', which in Western terms would be seen as blatant infringement as it involves appropriating something copyrighted or trademarked, marginally altering it, and re-presenting it as authentic Chinese product. The Ricky Rouse of the title is a US army deserter from Afghanistan who genuinely has that name, and therefore seems to a theme park owner the ideal person to wear his new Ricky Rouse costume. He can greet children as they rush towards the Rocky Mountain or Caribbean Pirates rides. The introduction explains the principle of shanzai, quoting the park owner's justification, which bears repeating: "I'll tell you what is a rip-off, for Hollywood to make and remake the same movie ten times every year. Remake here, sequel there, like the public has amnesia. Charging five dollars more each time just for 3D. That is a rip-off. That is piracy. That is a crime."
From that point, though, Jörg Tittel creates his own form of shanzai by aping the format of the very action movies he's criticising. This is note for note. The cast list has the classic capable loner, the antagonist whose grudging respect and pep talk is inspirational, the daughter in danger, and the misguided revolutionary. The joke of Ricky rampaging through the theme park with a gun and shooting at dwarves and Dumbo kicks off around a third of the way through the book and is seen through to the end. It's intended as satire, but the note perfect reproduction only occasionally even qualifies as parody. That's having your cake and eating it. And we all know that's not possible.
Even forgetting that and considering the book without layers, it's bland, predictable and emotionally void, bringing to mind a Sylvester Stallone last reel homily after a ninety minute shooting orgy. Anyone who's seen any action movie will pick the victims and the surprise unmaskings (with one exception, for which there are no clues) from the earliest stages, and at the finale Tittel takes a final step into parody dialogue as well.
The art of John Aggs, is a mixed blessing. The grainy detail is appropriate, but the panel layouts are functional rather than impressive, and light on variation, and when the major unmasking occurs the likeness is very poor.
If you enjoy pretty well every Punisher graphic novel whether good, bad or indifferent, this is for you.
The Punisher: Intruder
The Punisher: Circle of Blood
The Punisher: Return to Big Nothing
The Punisher: Full Auto


Have you seen a single Democrat politician denounce, criticize, or try to distance himself or herself from any of the outrageous incidents itemized above? I haven't. The fact is that Democrat politicians view "Resistance" Brownshirts as their storm troopers, leading the way to victory in November and beyond.
Leaders of the Democrat Party are calling for their Brownshirts to stalk, harrass, and disturb the peace. They are violent. Get armed. Get trained. The war is coming.


Out of bankruptcy, Minnesota's largest newspaper is starting to see some light at the end of the tunnel.
In 2009, the Star Tribune found itself on a dubious list: Time's 10 Most Endangered Newspapers in America. That was the year Minnesota's largest daily entered into bankruptcy after rounds of cost-cutting couldn't help the company ease its debt load. It wasn't particularly unusual to see a newspaper company enter into Chapter 11 in those dark days. But as someone who grew up reading the Star Tribune — I still have the front page from when the Twins won the World Series in '87 — the thought of my home paper going under was frightening.
The Star Tribune today, four years later, seems to have lifted itself off the endangered list — although, to extend the species metaphor, it still has work to do before its survival becomes a matter of Least Concern. It's out of bankruptcy; its debt has been reduced from around $500 million to $100 million. And, maybe most importantly, it's growing its readership in print and through digital and keeping an eye towards growing consumer revenue.
Publisher Michael Klingensmith tells me the paper's first-quarter revenue was up over the same period last year — a claim not many papers its size have been able to make since the mid-2000s. According to freshly released Audit Bureau of Circulation numbers, Sunday circulation is up about 4 percent in the most recent reporting period, while daily is up around 1 percent. They also saw a jump in single copy sales for Sunday in the second half of 2011, up to 120,000 from 115,000. Since launching digital subscriptions in fall 2011, the Star Tribune now has 18,000 digital subscribers. (The Star Tribune has a meter model that allows 20 free stories a month.) Overall subscription revenue is up 7.5 percent in the first half of this year from a year ago, Klingensmith said.
On the advertising side, Klingensmith would not provide specific data, but he said declines in ad revenue are shrinking: "Total advertising revenue declines have shrunk to the low single digit range in this year, to the order of magnitude that can be offset by increases in consumer revenue." On top of all that, for two years in a row, the company has been able to cut employees a check as part of the paper's profit-sharing agreement.
That's a good story, but there's a difference between turning the ship around and charting a new course. Klingensmith, a Minnesota native himself, wants to push the paper into new territory by meeting people where they are (or where they read) and by co-mingling the value of print and digital products.
The Star Tribune, like so many papers with digital subscriptions, wants to protect its print base from eroding. Seven-day print subscribers get digital access included in their subscription, as do readers who get the paper more than more than 2 days. But Sunday-only? You pay an incremental 99 cents a week to get digital access. So instead of the Frank Rich Discount of The New York Times — using digital subscriptions to push Sunday print — the Star Tribune wants to push readers to pick up more than just the Sunday paper.
In other words, the Star Tribune wants you all-in, across platforms. While some media outlets are content to offer a menu of apps at various price points (the sports app, the entertainment app, the politics app), Klingensmith said he thinks that approach has a limited ceiling for revenue. Rather than break up your audience and allow them to have dissociated relationships with your company, create a product that appeals to various parts of your audience while giving them a door to the rest of your work.
Though Newsstand can provide visibility and discoverability, that's not as critical for a local paper like the Star Tribune. Klingensmith said their audience is the within the boundaries of the state of Minnesota and anyone who grew up there, and that audience already knows about the Star Tribune. The more important issue is creating a deeper connection with readers — and, not incidentally, holding onto the valuable data each reader brings with it. "We want to control the subscriber relationship and want people to have a subscription through our system and have those people in our database," he said.
Before he came to the Star Tribune, Klingensmith was at Time Inc. for over 30 years, working at places like Time, Sports Illustrated, and Entertainment Weekly (which he co-founded). So the narrative goes that Klingensmith, with his years in the magazine business, saw the appeal of reader research — surveys and focus groups — and applied it to the daily newspaper. It's not like audience research was foreign to newspapers — but considering how tight budgets have become at most papers, they haven't been top priority either. Star Tribune editor Nancy Barnes said it had been at least four years since the paper undertook any significant research, so it was time for some fresh insights from readers. Barnes said they tested readers on everything from the design of the paper to its digital offerings. That work helped influence the redesign of StarTribune.com and changes to the print product, Barnes said.
It also directed changes to the Sunday paper. If there's a conventional wisdom in newspapers about Sundays, it goes like this: Sundays are for the takeout pieces, the long features, the narratives, and other elements that don't fit in the shrunken daily news hole. But that wasn't what Star Tribune readers had in mind for their paper: "We heard over and over, 'Features are nice, but we want the hard news,'" Barnes said.
More specifically, readers wanted hard news and investigations on A1, along with a mix of national and international reporting. It wasn't that readers didn't enjoy features; rather, their Sunday news diet gave them time to ingest more serious news along with features, and they prefer the news at the top of the meal. Klingensmith said readers believe the front page is the chief indicator of a story's importance and set a high bar for what is placed there. They adjusted the Sunday edition and now have more news up front, which Klingensmith thinks is one of the reasons single-copy sales increased.
Klingensmith is quick to not take too much credit for the Star Tribune's turnaround. He came to the paper after it came out of bankruptcy in 2010. While Klingensmith didn't set the table, he shaped what happened next. (He was named Editor & Publisher's 2011 Publisher of the Year.) The outlook for the paper is much improved from a few years ago, but both Kilingensmith and Barnes say they have plenty of work to do.
One area of focus is their iPad app, which they say has underperformed since its release last year. Putting aside the issue of authenticating subscriptions, the content on the app itself could be more dynamic and take better advantage of the tablet's features, Barnes said. They plan — no surprise — to do research on it. "I think there is an appetite for work we are doing on the iPad — I don't think we've nailed the right approach to it yet," she said.
Klingensmith had his sights set on evening out the revenue picture, bringing the advertising revenue and consumer product revenues into closer balance. That would mean an increase from the consumer side of things, which Klingensmith estimates sits around 43 percent at the moment. He said it wouldn't be out of the question to raise the price of the paper again. He doesn't expect they would reduce the number of free stories in their meter, as the Times has, but he won't rule it out either. "Generally speaking, over time, the print product in particular will have to carry a higher price. For the continuance of the enterprise, consumers are going to have to carry the cost," he said.
Fortunately, Klingensmith has some perspective. Yes, the Star Tribune is caught up the same uncertainty that all newspapers around the country are facing. But Klingensmith's happy for the ability to focus. Instead of a stable of magazines, he's just got one title. Instead of multiple audiences, he's just got one state-sized market. "We just have one little newspaper to run here, and that simplifies things," he said.

Virtual DAEMON manager allows me to create a virtual CD ROM and mount a CD image such as an .iso file onto it. How can I use this to create a virtual Sega CD disk from an .iso and music files?
I need this to play Kega without burning CDs.


Best in Class" owners of capital programs may know something that your organization doesn't. In a year where the Dodge Outlook Report predicts that total U.S. construction starts for 2016 will rise another 6% following gains of 13% in 2015, top facility owners used their secrets to not only deliver world-class facilities but to improve productivity, attract talent and build competitive advantage. What makes this even more compelling is that leading owners were able to greatly increase construction put in place while keeping a lean staff.
But what are these habits? How can you learn them and put them to use in your organization? Great questions. First, you need to understand what a habit is.
Famed leadership guru Stephen R. Covey provided the best definition of a habit some 25 years ago and is still true today. He shared (and I am paraphrasing) are the intersection of when people combine the knowledge of what to do with the skills on how to do it and then have the desire to do it. When it comes to capital programs, the same could be applied to our projects. A habit of capital program teams are when you combine your standard operating procedure with effective training and use your leadership to inspire.
Best-in-class facility owners understand this dynamic very well. They realize that it takes more than mere words. They have learned that creating lasting change within their own teams and extending that change to their construction managers, their architects / engineers, and their general contractors, they have to define their processes well, train teams on how to follow them and create a desire (incentive) for the team to want to do something differently.
Over the 20 years that e-Builder has been in business, we have had a very unique vantage point on how leading facility owners separate from the rest of the pack and become truly best-in-class. We are fortunate to have the opportunity to work closely with owners on "what to do" and "why to do it" and then help them with the training needed to enable that process on a web based construction management platform. After all these years, we can boil much of what we learned into 7 Habits that leading owners exhibit – time and time again – that makes their projects successful and their organizations thrive.
Each one of these habits have the ability to become "game changers" in your organization. In fact, they will tell you that you don't have to do all seven to make a difference. However, best-in-class owners create momentum and greatness in one habit and then move on to the next – further extending their position as best in class and attracting the top talent to their organization.
