Street art in Denver keeps growing everyday, with more alleys, walls and even actual streets covered by local and sometimes international artists. Each summer, RiNo celebrates these artists with the Colorado Crush street art festival, giving them ample space to decorate the neighborhood with an amazing variety of style. Other neighborhoods in Denver have followed suit, sans festival, and private businesses are becoming the curators of free art in Denver by commissioning artists to paint murals on their walls. Restaurants and bars are some of the most decorated businesses, both inside and out.
Next time you go out to eat or drink, pick one of these 21 establishments within Denver that have some of the most epic murals on their exteriors, and that way you'll be enjoying some free and worthy art at the same time. We've included a mapped guide to help you find where they are and divided them by neighborhood.
The Lowdown: Painted in the last few months, this mural by Nicaraguan-born artist Luis Valle (who currently lives in Miami) bursts with color on the north side of Local 46. The combination of feminine iconography and nature-inspired images softens the brick and corrugated tin design of Local 46, giving it an appeal that other industrial-chic restaurants lack. The mural has a drip technique that appears to either be very difficult or a complete act of chance. Either way, it's worth stepping up close to see more detail.
The Lowdown: BookBar nailed the design of its mural, with some of the most beloved fictional characters from books jumping out of a bookcase with what looks to be a magical galaxy holding it all together. It's the kind of mural that makes you smile when you see it, even if it's not the most original piece of art on the side of a building. And BookBar, though the mural is painted with children's book characters, is in fact a bar, coffee shop, book store and it serves small food plates throughout the day. BookBar's apropos mural was painted by Delton Demarest.
The Lowdown: Javier's Diner's brightly colored mural was created with an eclectic mix of cultural styles, from the skull to the Mayan-esque curves on some of the adornments, to the headdress on the woman. Painted by Joaquin Gonzales, a Denver-based artist, the mural exudes a spicy, fun and high-energy aesthetic. Sitting on the corner of West 38th Avenue and Tennyson Street, Javier's dominates the busy intersection with the bright red background paint and one-of-a-kind mural.
Where: 4501 West 38th Ave., Denver.
The Lowdown: Burrito Giant and Javier's are so close to each other that it almost seems like they are one establishment when you drive by. But, Burrito Giant is unique because they dedicate several of their walls to rotating artists throughout the year. The east facade of the building has been dedicated to the same image for a while. But it grabs the attention of passers-by because of the brilliant use of color and because of how enormous it is once you get close to it. The south and west sides of the building are where to look for different spray paint squads scrubbing old work and bombing new.
The Lowdown: Crow Bar is a loved spot among locals in the Highland area. It's a well-balanced combination of classy and dive bar, with a delightful pun name. The simple and sophisticated mural stands out as a stamp for the essence of the bar, with a white background and photorealistic crow.
The Lowdown: Painted during Colorado Crush last year by Denver-based artist Axel Geittmann, the white mural on the black wall of The Populist has the appeal of a sketch in negative space. It's largely abstract, though two skeletal arms and a feather can be seen quite clearly, and the whole thing seems to be coming from beneath the sidewalk. It's creepy only in the sense that the creepiness sets in if you look at it for a long time. Otherwise, the turbulent and well-executed design may be lost on you if you're walking by in a hurry.
The Lowdown: Seen from the north side of Bar Fausto, the snake and moon mural by Lauren Napolitano (aka @peptalks) is elegant and powerful. Napolitano is a traveling artist who has been coming to Denver for the past few years to show her smaller artwork at the gallery Svper Ordinary. She made use of her time in Denver by creating a few different pieces of street art in the same style as the one on Bar Fausto. The symmetry, subject matter and color palette are inspired by her mother's Mexican heritage as well as her desire to express feminine qualities through art.
The Lowdown: Crema Coffee House, as a corner building on Larimer Street and 29th Street, had both the front-facing wall and the side wall painted by two different artists. Artist and certified Reiki Master instructor Gemma Danielle (aka @optimysticism) painted the gold mandala on the wall facing Larimer Street. In her artistic practice she uses many of the techniques she has learned in gaining her Reiki certification and from other meditative techniques — like mantras and repeated prayers as she draws each line.
On the wall facing 29th Street, celebrated Denver artist Mike Graves (aka @mikeroane) painted two characters along with flowers and stars. His unique style for creating characters means that anytime you see his work, you know it's him. The fish design is repeated on the inside of the coffee shop as well, where Graves painted portions of drywall between exposed areas of brick.
The Lowdown: Renowned Denver artist Thomas Evans (aka @detour303) and his unmistakable style can now be seen all over Denver, brightening up whatever he puts his hand on. In this case, it's a garage door at the jazz bar Nocturne in RiNo, depicting the American jazz drummer Art Blakey — a fitting ode. Evans painted this during Colorado Crush last year and the colors are still as bright as if they were painted yesterday.
The Lowdown: To commemorate what would have been Kurt Cobain's 50th birthday (on February 20, 2017), Remington Robinson painted a photorealistic tribute to him with the words "smile" in the background on the bottom corner of Larimer Lounge's parking lot wall. Robinson is traditionally a classical painter and sometimes he uses acrylic paints in his street art in addition to spray paint or in favor of it entirely. Painting buddy Pat Milbery painted the rest, with bold white and black jagged lines and a logo design for the lounge.
The Lowdown: Simple, sensual and larger than life, this painted woman came from Denver-based artist Michael Ortiz (aka @illson) whose style centers on using ovals and other rounded shapes. This one looks slightly different depending on where you are sitting and in a way, the expression on her face changes too. Without needing to paint the entire wall, Ortiz succeeded in using the most efficient amount of space (without covering the window or being under the eave, for instance) while also using that shape to benefit his painting. Have a beer and some food at First Draft Taproom & Kitchen while you have a staring contest with this giant lady next time you're in RiNo and you won't regret it.
The Lowdown: The mural on the front of Our Mutual Friend Brewing Company was painted initially in 2015 by Jeremy Burns (aka @jaysaybay) with a white background and the two figures composed of horizontal stripes. Burns repainted it last year, adding a blue background and changing the figures to have opposite geometric shapes. In the middle, above the front door, the two figures meet to shake hands in a white and black circle. Burns is probably most known for the double-sided mural titled "Larimer Boy and Girl" — where you see a boy or a girl when you approach it from opposite directions — among other Denver murals he has painted.
The Lowdown: Painted by Portland artist Blaine Fontana during Colorado Crush last year, this mural is technically within Ratio Beerworks' patio area, but can be easily seen from the street as well. Like all of Fontana's art, this mural is bursting with overlapping images that are accentuated by geometric patterns. The colors range from bright, almost neon hues to muted earth tones that altogether provide an energetic ambience to match Ratio's popularity.

The Lowdown: Painted in 2015 by the Denver artist Pedro Barrios (aka @pbarriosart) on the side of Rebel Restaurant, this mural uses every square inch of the wall to its advantage. Even the window is integrated, giving the eye of one of the skulls an almost robotic touch. There is a sense of duality in the painting — without being insensitive to gender stereotypes — where one side is more masculine and the other feminine. Ultimately, it's a fun-loving piece that exemplifies balance and the beauty of being different from others.
Painted by Pat McKinney, Jason Graves and Pat Milbery.
The Lowdown: As part of a campaign proposed by Visit Denver, the Love This City murals have been painted in various areas of the city by a team Denver street artists. This one is on the side of El Noa Noa restaurant on Santa Fe and was painted by three of the four — Pat McKinney, Jason Graves and Pat Milbery. The best view of it, however, is from El Taco de Mexico next door, where you can sit on the patio almost directly beneath the mural. From that vantage point, you'll appreciate the bold use of color, the excellent line work and the many separate elements that make the piece quintessentially Colorado.
The Lowdown: This piece on the side of The Living Room on Broadway is another tribute mural, this time to five fantastic musicians — Louis Armstrong, David Bowie, Frank Sinatra, John Lennon and B.B. King. Composed primarily with shades of gray, the highlights of pink, red and blue offer a nice and unexpected touch. The grayscale works well as a reminder that we no longer have these musicians gracing our ears or lives.
The Lowdown: For a little culture and a look at some of the art of one young and talented Denver-based street artist, check out Señor Burritos east wall, by the parking lot. Bimmer Torres (aka @bimmer_t) has painted many large scale murals around town that are steeped with dynamic visions of color, layers and usually revolve around a central figure. His attention to detail is breathtaking from far away and up close.
The Lowdown: The murals on the outside and back patio of Declaration Brewing are pretty damn patriotic and give the place a festive feel all year long. The front murals are titled "Drop Beers not Bombs" and depict exactly what you think they do. On the back patio, artists Pat Milbery and @def3 painted a dedication to America, complete with an Uncle Sam holding a beer and pointing at you, along with an eagle and some majestic mountains. These murals set Declaration Brewing apart from its neighbors because the brewery resides in a warehouse area where all the other buildings are unadorned.
The Lowdown: Painted within the last month, the enormous mural on the east side of Illegal Pete's Colfax is another one of Mike Graves' creations. Using his love of character building and the funky personality of Illegal Pete's, Graves created a piece that's both wonderfully imaginative and weirdly fitting. Complete with PBR cans and bottles, for the true East Colfax vibes. On the other side from Graves' mural there are three paintings of a style that can be found at the other eight locations as well.
The Lowdown: Weed lovers can rejoice, if they haven't already, by the "Kindly Toasted on Colfax" mural by Pat McKinney and Pat Milbery on Cheba Hut. There's not much subtlety in this piece, with overlapping weed leaves in a spectrum of green shades surrounding a central skeletal figure holding a sub and drink from Cheba Hut. And let's be honest, Cheba Hut is never about subtlety, so this mural compliments their business like a toasted sub compliments a toasted person's appetite.

Beacon Rock State Park is a 4,650-acre year-round camping park with historic significance dating back hundreds of years. The park includes 9,500 feet of freshwater shoreline on the Columbia River. Located in the heart of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, Beacon Rock is the core of an ancient volcano. The mile-long trail to its summit provides outstanding panoramic views of the Columbia River Gorge. The park has over 20 miles of roads and trails open to hiking, mountain biking and equestrian use.
Nature of the Area
A dizzying mile-long switchback trail takes you up 848-foot Beacon Rock, but that's not the only way to a tip-top experience.
Rock climbing and hiking to waterfalls are the rage at this park, where there are plenty of vantage points for eagle-eye views. Cyclists and horseback riders also will find trails to the vistas from Hamilton Mountain saddle, and boaters can delight in the majesty of Beacon Rock from the Columbia River.
Beacon Rock overlooks a breathtaking section of the Columbia River Gorge, a deep, wide gouge in the earth carved by Ice Age floods. The mighty Columbia River rushes down to the ocean in a froth of whitecaps, bisecting Washington and Oregon, with walls of columnar basalt and mountains rising thousands of feet on both sides.
The park's proximity to Portland and Vancouver make it popular with locals and visitors from around the world. No matter what activities you choose at Beacon Rock, you will be awed by this special place and its stunning surroundings.
History of the Area
"Beacon Rock" was originally named by Lewis and Clark on their expedition to the Pacific Ocean on October 31, 1805. It was near Beacon Rock that they first measured tidal influences from the ocean on the Columbia River.
In 1811, Alexander Ross of the John Jacob Astor expedition called the rock "Inoshoack Castle." The rock was known as "Castle Rock" until, in 1916, the United States Board of Geographic Names restored the name "Beacon Rock."
Henry J. Biddle purchased the rock in order to build a trail to the top. The trail was built, and in 1935 his heirs turned the rock over to the state for use as a park. Additional development was done by the Civilian Conservation Corps.
A Discover Pass is required for vehicle access to Washington state parks for day use. For more information about the Discover Pass and exemptions, please visit the Discover Pass web page.
The main camp area is an older camp in a forested setting suited more for tents than RVs. There are a limited number of sites that accommodate RVs. This campground closes seasonally.
The Woodard Creek Campground has full-hookup campsites that provide electricity, water, and sewer. These campsites are open year round.
There are two standard equestrian campsites located at the equestrian trailhead that will accommodate a horse trailer.
The park offers one boat launch, 916 feet of moorage dock and a boat pumpout.

The upper picnic-area kitchen shelter is available by reservation for groups of up to 100 people. Water and power are on-site.
Beacon Rock offers excellent opportunities for rock climbing except where it interferes with nesting raptors, primarily on the south face. The presence of the falcon nest requires that the south face be closed to technical rock activity February 1 to mid-July annually; open the rest of the year. The east face is closed year-round due to environmental sensitivity. Call the park at (509) 427-8265 for more information.
The park offers a one-mile interpretive trail at the Doetsch day-use area. The trail is ADA accessible. Additionally, there are interpretive signs about the Ice Age floods along the Beacon Rock Trail.
The horse and bike trails are multi-use, with hikers allowed.
There is fishing on the lower Columbia River, below Bonneville Dam, for sturgeon, salmon, steelhead, bass and walleye.
The park is a popular site for weddings.

If you're suffering from a case of tinea versicolor, you don't have to go far for treatment. While severe cases of this skin disease may require prescription medication, most cases can be treated with over-the-counter solutions.
Store-bought treatments for tinea versicolor come in the form of skin applications such as creams, lotions, soaps, and shampoos that include such ingredients as zinc, pyrithione, selenium sulfide, miconazole, clotrimazole, and terbinafine. WebMD provides a full list of over-the-counter options for treating tinea versicolor.
Each of the treatments come with their own application requirements, healing timetables, and side effects. It's not uncommon for treatment protocols to require a month of usage to clear up symptoms and another few months of use to prevent symptoms from coming back.
For severe or recurring cases, antifungal pills may be prescribed by a doctor.
Tinea Versicolor, also known as pityriasis versicolor, stems from a natural yeast that lives on our skin. When this yeast grows out of control, a rash (tinea versicolor) appears in the form of discolored spots. Tinea versicolor is not contagious and is most common in teens and young adults. It is found most often on the neck, chest, back, and arms, but can appear anywhere on the body. Hot, humid climates or a weakened immune system can exaggerate the rash.
With the right kind of treatment and preventive measures, you can win the fight against tinea versicolor. You can even do it with just over-the-counter medications.
If you think you may have tinea versicolor or have a severe or recurring case, visit your local FastMed to see a medical professional.


Each new year brings with it the urge to clear our closets and our lives of the clutter we've collected. We want to clean out the old and make way for the new! The new year is also the time for categorizing our habits and deciding which ones to toss out and which ones to carry forward. One I hope we all consider keeping is the habit of encouraging others.
The Greek word for encouragement is "parakaleo," which means to call a person to your side in order to aid, assist, counsel, console, comfort, exhort and strengthen. It is a word that accurately describes the role of the Holy Spirit and the way the Spirit works through believers to reach others. Webster's dictionary defines encourage, "to inspire, to renew or give hope." And while those without a life of faith can be wonderful encouragers, of course, no one can encourage more effectively than the believer filled with the Spirit.
When we make sharing encouraging words a habit, it's easier to always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have (I Peter 3:15 NIV). What kinds of words can we use to encourage others? Words that heal, words that help, and words from the heart.
Every time you listen to a friend's grief over a marriage that is failing, the loss of a spouse, or a child that is sick you have a chance to encourage the oppressed (Isaiah 1:17) with words that heal. Just saying "I'm sorry" can penetrate the despair your friend is feeling. So can the words "I love you," spoken over and over, and "I'll always be here for you." Words that heal.
Speaking words that help may be a habit that you aren't even aware you have. When you offer to clean house for a sick neighbor, cook a meal, pick up the kids or baby sit, you are offering words that help. Let us encourage one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching we read in Hebrews 10:25. You do that when you offer words that help make life easier for others.
The most encouraging words of all are words spoken from the heart. Those words the Spirit leads you to spontaneously share with people you know, and even with strangers.
Speaker and author Sandra Aldrich tells a wonderful story about some encouraging words she received when she was faced with adapting to single parenthood after her husband's death. Still grieving for her husband, she decided to take a trip with her two children to give them all a diversion. But it didn't go well. Her son was always running off, and her daughter shadowed her so closely she almost tripped over her at every turn. Finally getting her son in tow, she was standing in line with both kids at a restaurant wondering how she was ever going to manage as a single mother.
Just then an elderly, Spanish-speaking woman who had been observing Sandra and her children for awhile passed by them. Reaching out, she patted Sandra on the arm and in her halting English said, "You good mamma." That's all she said. "You good mamma." And then she was gone.
Those few words of encouragement, spoken from the heart of one mother to another, sustained Sandra through her years of single parenthood and made such an impression on her that she included the story in a speech many years later.
Words that heal, words that help, and words from the heart. Sharing them with others is a habit worthy of the new year.
Sharing healing words usually come best from someone who has been through the trials that you are experiencing.
I agree, Ruth. As long as it's done gently. Everyone's experience is different. But I definitely believe in 2 Corinthians 1:3-5. Hugs.
It is difficult for people to just say thank you and go forward for a kind deed they received from another. Often times they want to put a dollar figure on something. We need to remember to receive and to give with the heart and the mercy of God's grace encircling our lives.
Amen, Cheryl. Thanks for your thoughts on this.
Great quote, Bob. Thank you, and happy new year!
Thanks for the reminder of how easy it can be to lift the world's spirit one person at a time, an encouraging word, a smile, a hug.
And you are very good at it, my friend.
Like everyone else, I have had some difficult times in my lifetime. It is amazing how comforting it is just to hear someone say, "I'm sorry you are having to deal with this. Please tell me how I can help." Compassion is a wonderful gift, and it doesn't have to cost a dime.
I agree, Pat. No one else can walk the path we walk, but they sure can make the going smoother!
Snowy photos are encouraging. I have concern for our ski areas and the moisture needed when fire season approaches.
Thanks for the reminder to keep our senses open to those not voicing the need of encouragement.
Great point, Dee. Sometimes we need to read what's in a person's eyes or countenance!
If there's anyone who sends encouraging words, it's you, Nancy. Once again, thank you.
And you, my friend! Thanks, Betty.
So true, so easy…and yet we forget! Thank you for dogmas that are down to earth; that come form heaven's heart through Nancy's pen!
Thank you, Alice. I pray that He is always the Source! Hugs.
Oh, Nancy, thank you for this helpful encouragement for our words and interactions. You good woman. You good writer. You good friend.
Ha! Love your encouraging words to me, Beth!! Thanks.

CareTrust REIT Adds Operating Partner and SNF/ALF Campus in California's Silicon Valley
SAN CLEMENTE, Calif., Sept. 05, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CareTrust REIT, Inc. (NASDAQ:CTRE) announced today that it has acquired the Villas at Saratoga (formerly Our Lady of Fatima Villa), an 85-bed skilled nursing and 37-unit assisted living campus in Saratoga, California, from Our Lady of Fatima, Inc., a Catholic nonprofit. The property will be leased to affiliates of Kalesta Healthcare LLC, a San Jose-area-based skilled nursing and seniors housing operator.
Bella Mahoney, President and CEO of Our Lady of Fatima Villa, stated, "We're thrilled with California's approval of the sale to CareTrust and lease to Kalesta." She noted that CareTrust and Kalesta "executed on every promise they made to me and our board," and acknowledged the hard work done on all sides to collectively navigate the state approval and transition processes. "We look forward to watching The Villas of Saratoga expand their care reach to residents across Saratoga and throughout Silicon Valley," she added.
In connection with the acquisition, CareTrust REIT entered into a new tenant relationship with affiliates of Kalesta Healthcare, LLC. "Our longstanding relationships with Kalesta's principals date back to our operating days," said Mark Lamb, CareTrust's Chief Investment Officer. He further noted that, with principals who are highly-regarded local operators, Kalesta is "an excellent fit" to operate the Villas at Saratoga due to their well-established relationships with key local hospitals and physicians in the greater Saratoga and Los Gatos communities. "We are excited to see them continue and grow the Villas' legacy as one of the premier skilled, transitional and senior care facilities in Silicon Valley," he said.
Scott Clawson, Jr., one of Kalesta's Managing Directors, remarked, "We're grateful for the CareTrust team and their guidance throughout this transaction." Mr. Clawson noted that CareTrust's expertise in handling the complicated transaction had freed the Kalesta team to focus on seamlessly transitioning the Villas to new leadership, which was a high priority for all three parties. "We couldn't be more excited to build upon the foundation that Bella and her team established over the past few decades, while growing our operational footprint with CareTrust as strategic opportunities arise," he added.
The total initial investment is expected to be approximately $19.0 million, inclusive of transaction costs. Cash rent for the first two years is $3.4 million, and thereafter rent escalates based on CPI. Additionally, CareTrust has committed to fund approximately $1.4 million in revenue-producing capital expenditures over the next 24 months based on the in-place lease yield. The lease term is 15 years, with two five-year renewal options. The acquisition was funded using cash on hand.

Mardi Gras is back; what about IT?
IT Execs Race Against Time Along Gulf Coast
Temp Locations Still Home to Some IT Ops
Sidebar: Temporary Locations Are Still Home to Some IT Ops
IT Execs Race to Shore Up Their Systems
Look to boost resiliency before the next hurricane season; staff shortages continue
By Patrick Thibodeau and Heather Havenstein
Along the storm-ravaged Gulf Coast, six months after Hurricane Katrina struck, there's a big deadline ahead for IT managers: June 1, the start of the next hurricane season.
As Mardi Gras was celebrated in a still-recovering New Orleans last week, more than a dozen IT managers in Louisiana and Mississippi said they are rushing to build more resilient systems, improve their companies' communications capabilities and apply the many lessons they learned from Katrina.
There's a particularly strong push to increase data backup capabilities, especially via online replication to other sites, and to set up wireless and satellite communications systems, the IT managers said. And the work is being done with a sense of urgency because of worries about this year's hurricane season, even while many employers continue to struggle to find IT staffers to replace workers who left the region and haven't returned.
"I have a great concern for this coming hurricane season," said James Mehaffey, manager of the business continuity program at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana. "In the Gulf Coast, our infrastructure is severely weakened."
Many of the people leading the efforts to reinforce IT systems and networks have already been through a lot, both professionally and personally.
For instance, the home of David Scripter, regional IT manager of URS Corp.'s New Orleans operations, was located near a breached canal in the city. "I lost my house and pretty much everything I own," Scripter said, although he added that at least he, his wife and their three young children were all safe and sound.
From a business standpoint, the engineering services firm's offices were inaccessible for about a month after Katrina struck on Aug. 29 and caused devastating flooding the following day. Because its systems were out of reach, URS had to buy new hardware, especially PCs for its end users, Scripter said. The company set up remote offices in Baton Rouge, La., as well as Houston and Austin, and it took URS two weeks after the storm to restore its IT operations.
Now Scripter is back in New Orleans, working to make certain that the company could recover from another catastrophic storm within five days. He said his staff has installed a storage-area network in New Orleans and is investigating how to mirror the data on the SAN to an off-site location in another state. URS is also installing a system that will replicate separate Oracle databases used in 3-D engineering applications to remote locations. "We're trying to get a lot of this stuff in place by June 1," Scripter said.
Familiar Ground
Larry Mayo, vice president of information technologies at Keesler Federal Credit Union in Biloxi, Miss., is working under the same deadline.
Keesler's headquarters building lost its roof and most of its windows to Katrina, but the credit union's data center was spared because it was located between two cement floors in the middle of the building, Mayo said. A generator worked throughout the seven days that the company was without electricity, and Mayo took steps to activate Keesler's disaster recovery hot site in Scottsdale, Ariz.
But the credit union decided not to go live with the hot site because of the widespread failure of voice and data networks in the Gulf Coast region. "Without the communications leg of it, no matter which data center we worked out of, we were going to be dead in the water," Mayo said.
As a result, Keesler is installing satellite communications links as network backups at its 12 locations in the U.S. and three offices in the U.K., he said. The installations have been completed at three facilities, and the remainder are due to be finished by June 1. By that date, the credit union also expects to have finished deploying a converged voice and data network that will replace an aging Cisco data backbone and a private branch exchange phone system. The converged network, which was expedited after Katrina, will be able to work over the satellite links, Mayo said.
The day after Katrina struck, Neal Hennegan, director of technology at insurer Gilsbar Inc., had to drive 60 miles from his office in Covington, La., to find a working phone so he could declare a disaster and authorize hot-site operator SunGard Availability Services to switch his IT operations to a Chicago data center.
Like many IT managers who experienced the storm and its aftermath, Hennegan can quickly list the things he did right and the things he has since addressed. For instance, he was especially pleased that Gilsbar had tested its SunGard backup capabilities before Katrina struck, because that helped avoid start-up delays at the hot site. But Hennegan said he plans to send IT employees to Chicago in advance of any future storms "and empower them to declare a disaster without talking to us."
Even at a company like Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana, which had invested heavily in business continuity capabilities, Katrina managed to expose issues. For instance, the health insurer used diverse routing techniques on its networks but wasn't aware that at one point they all went to a common physical site in New Orleans, Mehaffey said.
Jim Burgard, assistant vice chancellor for university computing and communications
At the University of New Orleans, IT workers couldn't begin returning to the school's campus until mid-November, said Jim Burgard, assistant vice chancellor for university computing and communications. And it wasn't until the start of January that all of those who remained on the IT staff were back working on campus, he said.
Even now, the university is still running its mission-critical applications at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge on 25 servers -- some taken from its own data center, and some donated by LSU. But the New Orleans school is installing an uninterruptible power supply and a new generator powered by natural gas at its own facilities, Burgard said. When that work is completed in about six to eight weeks, the applications at LSU will be shifted back to the campus in New Orleans.
But, Burgard added, the university plans to leave the servers in place in Baton Rouge and mirror data to them so that the LSU location can function as a hot site if another disaster occurs. That strategy is also geared toward eliminating some of the problems the university had retrieving its backup tapes after Katrina, he said. Although the school didn't lose any data, it had to wait three weeks to access the tapes, which were stored on the sixth floor of a building in downtown New Orleans
Meanwhile, Burgard is still trying to replace eight IT workers -- nearly one-fifth of his 45-person staff. A recent advertisement for a senior networking position that before the storm would likely have garnered about 20 resumes netted just four, he said. In addition, he received only two resumes for a senior database administrator slot.
Also working to fill IT positions is Ochsner Clinic Foundation, which operates a 600-bed hospital on its main campus in New Orleans and 35 clinics throughout Louisiana. Ochsner lost 23 workers from its 150-member IT staff after the storm, said Bill Saussaye, director of information services operations. The health care provider has managed to fill some application development jobs with local people but is using contractors to temporarily fill positions in networking and communications, he said.
Ochsner is aiming to complete several disaster recovery projects before June. One involves the installation of redundant Freon and chilled-water cooling systems in the company's primary data center -- a plan prompted by its inability at times to generate enough power to chill the water in the existing system after Katrina hit. Saussaye said he is also looking to set up a remote data center at least 100 miles from New Orleans and hot sites for Ochsner's distributed systems.
Jan Rideout, CIO at North¿rop Grumman Corp.'s Ship Systems unit
Jan Rideout, CIO at North-rop Grumman Corp. 's Ship Systems unit, lost her Mississippi home to Katrina's fury. She said that if there's a bright side to the storm for her, it's that the disaster prompted the Ship Systems operation -- which has facilities in New Orleans -- to accelerate a plan to replace networking cables with wireless technology.
Disaster recovery plans have to be flexible and must take an organization's ability to respond into account, Rideout said. For instance, many plans assume that employees will be available after a disaster occurs. But when the air conditioners in Northrop Grumman's data center stopped working after Katrina, Rideout said, there weren't any employees on hand who knew how to gracefully shut down the servers.
That points to the challenges that Rideout and other Gulf Coast IT managers are facing as they scramble to shore up their systems, networks and data-protection mechanisms so their companies can withstand another major storm.
"There is not ever going to be the perfect disaster-recovery plan," Rideout said. "You can't write the perfect script, and the next time will be different. And I don't think we can forecast and predict every combination."

75 MOST INFLUENTIAL WOMEN
ANTHEA DISNEY
Claim to fame: She may be Rupert Murdoch's "darling," but Ms. Disney is also one smart editor. She reinvented TV Guide, turning the weekly listings magazine into a provocative, timely entertainment book. Mr.
Murdoch then put her in charge of his new media efforts. Although Mr.
Murdoch's partner, MCI, pulled out at the last moment, Ms. Disney managed to create one of the first new media newsrooms and a content package for the information superhighway that received kudos for its originality and versatility. She cried when she was forced to lay off half her writing staff. But News Corp. immediately moved
her on to the next challenge: HarperCollins.
Vitae: After receiving her early training on British journalism's raucous Fleet Street, Ms. Disney moved to this side of the Atlantic. She did tours as deputy managing editor of the New York Daily News and as editor of Self and US magazines before she was recruited by Mr. Murdoch's organization.
Education: Not available.
On the record: "Remember to grow your personal interests as well as your business life. Without the first, life is pretty one-dimensional."
GABRIELLA FORTE
President and
Calvin Klein Inc.
Claim to fame: She brought Giorgio Armani to normal folk in America as director of Armani's U.S. division. In 15 years with the Italian designer, she headed up operations and created his retail outlets, including A/X Armani Exchange. Calvin Klein stole her away in 1994 to expand his European boutique operations and freestanding stores in the United States, including his recently opened outpost in New York.
Vitae: Ms. Forte first worked as a fashion industry market analyst for the Italian Trade Commission before opening her own consulting firm. Mr. Armani was one of her clients.
Education: Hunter College, B.A. in liberal arts.
On the record: "I never feel established; I always feel there is something more that I can achieve."
BRIDGET A. MACASKILL
President and chief executive
OppenheimerFunds Inc.
Claim to fame: Ms. Macaskill helped Oppenheimer discover women investors. Hired in 1983 as marketing director without any financial background, she researched what she showed to be an untapped market and then developed a game plan to reach female investors. When Ms. Macaskill was named chief executive last September, she stated her goal: to take 16th-ranked Oppenheimer's assets from $38.2 billion to $100 billion by 2000.
Vitae: Ms. Macaskill seemed destined to be a lifetime consumer-product marketer. She rose up the ranks of Unigate, becoming marketing director of its St. Ivel Ltd. unit. St. Ivel, the United Kingdom's largest dairy company, made Ms. Macaskill responsible for 50 product lines. But she gave it all up to come to New York when her husband took a job with Chemical Bank.
Education: Edinburgh University, degree in psychology; Edinburgh College of Commerce, postgraduate degree in business studies.
On the record: "Choose a career that will allow you to achieve your non-career-related goals in life. Attempt to select a corporate culture with which you are comfortable as a woman and an individual."
ROBERTA J. ARENA
Claim to fame: As executive vice president in charge of bank cards for North America and Europe, she directs a portfolio of nearly $45 billion. Ms. Arena is one of the highest-ranking female banking executives in the country, reporting directly to Citibank Chairman John Reed.
Vitae: She joined Citibank more than two decades ago, holding a variety of retail banking positions throughout New York and Europe. After a stint as marketing director at Diners Club, which is owned by Citicorp, she returned to Citibank, eventually becoming chief executive for Citibank Florida before taking her current job.
Education: Duke University, B.A.

It all began during the last monthts of 2013 when, after visiting his amateur website, i sent an e-mail with a request for information to Alessandro (IZ1REU). He is a radio amateur, like me, and until then none of us knew of the existence of the other. That's how we met, with his answer to my e-mail. An exquisite person indeed: after we spoke on the phone he invited me to the Marc exposition held in December and then we met in person. On that occasion, he introduced me to another radio amateur named Alessandro (IZ1PKI), in turn passionate about meteorology. They both have given me general but fundamental information on how to purchase what I need to prepare my future weather station, on how to place it and on how to do in order to share data on the internet. Following this I have come into contact with Filippo of Eurowebcam. He turned out to be an excellent person too: he constantly followed me during the purchase of the camera and the assembly and setup both of the weather station and the camera itself, indulgently enduring my constant requests for help. I am not exaggerating if I say that he has had extraordinary patience. Sometimes, with subtle irony, he pointed out my major shortcomings in the computer field. I enjoyed this aspect: laughing and joking while remaining serious and professional at work is rare quality! For the creation of this website I have been essentially assisted by Bruno (IK1OUK), without which it would have seen the light in a much longer time and definitely poorer results. My friendship with Bruno was born recently (something more unique than rare these days: first in person and then on Facebook!) on the occasion of a radio-assistance in the edition of the "13° Rally Riviera Ligure 2014". A few days later I was at his house to get a lesson on how to strike up a website. I came out half dazed by the " full immersion" to which Bruno subjected me. I got healthy again after a therapy session of few minutes with Hannibal, the beautiful male Riesenschnauzer of his property, which loves to be scratched behind the ears and under the throat. In the days after Bruno has played a "very, very" crucial role for the realization of the project.

Q: PostgreSQL pg_dump creates sql script, but it is not a sql script: is there a way to get pg_dump to create a standard sql script? I'm running pg_dump to create a script to automate the creation of a system like this:
pg_dump --dbname=postgresql://postgres:ohdsi@127.0.0.1:5432/OHDSI -t webapi.* > webapi.sql

--- EDIT ------------------------------------
The --inserts method in the accepted answer gave me exactly what I needed.
I ended up doing this:
pg_dump --inserts --dbname=postgresql://postgres:ohdsi@127.0.0.1:5432/OHDSI -t webapi.* > webapi.sql

A: The client tool you are using to restore the dump cannot deal with the data from the (nonstandard) COPY command being mixed into the script. You need psql to restore such a dump.
You can use the --inserts option of pg_dump to create a dump that contains INSERT statements rather than COPY. That will be slower to restore, but will work with more client tools.
However, your wish to get a standard SQL script is hopeless. PostgreSQL extends the standard in many ways, so a database cannot be dumped with a standard SQL script. Note, for example, that indexes are not defined by the SQL standard. If you are looking to transfer a PostgreSQL dump to a different RDBMS, you will be disappointed. That is more difficult.

James Evan Gattis (born August 18, 1986) is an American former professional baseball designated hitter and catcher.[1] He has played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Atlanta Braves and Houston Astros. Gattis has also earned the nickname of "El Oso Blanco" or The White Bear, due to his raw power capabilities when playing for the Venezuelan Winter league. While with Atlanta, he played catcher and occasionally left field.

Gattis was a premier amateur baseball player in the Dallas–Fort Worth area through high school. However, anxiety and substance abuse led him to abandon his scholarship to Texas A&M University. After wandering around the Western United States for four years, he returned to baseball, and was drafted by the Braves in 2010.
After playing in minor league baseball for the Braves, Gattis made the team's Opening Day roster in 2013. Receiving playing time with Brian McCann on the disabled list, Gattis won the National League Rookie of the Month Award for both April and May 2013. He became the Braves' primary catcher in 2014, but was traded to the Astros before the 2015 season.

Early lifeEdit
Gattis was born in Dallas, Texas on August 18, 1986. He was raised in Farmers Branch, Texas, and began playing baseball at the age of six.[2] His parents divorced when he was eight years old, and at the age of 15, he moved to Forney, Texas. Busy playing baseball, Gattis never processed his parents' divorce.[3]
Gattis played for the Dallas Tigers, one of the premier amateur teams in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex.[2] Clayton Kershaw, Corey Kluber and Yovani Gallardo were some of his teammates. He played on traveling All-Star teams with Austin Jackson and in the Junior Olympic Games with Billy Butler, Homer Bailey, and Justin Upton.[3] He attended high schools in the Dallas area, including R. L. Turner High School, Forney High School, and Bishop Lynch High School, in order to play for specific coaches.[2]
Projected as a potential draft pick in the first eight rounds of the 2004 Major League Baseball (MLB) Draft, Gattis instead intimated that he intended to attend college and play college baseball. While Rice University offered him a scholarship to play first base, he accepted an offer from Texas A&M University, who wanted him to play as their catcher.[3][4] However, the divorce of his parents and anxiety derived from the fear of failing at college baseball led Gattis to abuse alcohol and marijuana.[3][4] He went undrafted in the 2004 draft.[3][5]
Instead of going to college, Gattis' mother took him to a drug rehabilitation facility, where he had a 30-day inpatient stay. He then went to Prescott, Arizona, where he had three months of outpatient therapy while living in a halfway house.[3][4]
Gattis enrolled at Seminole State College, a junior college in Seminole, Oklahoma, after receiving a recruitment phone call from the team's coach. Gattis redshirted as a freshman and played for half a season in 2006.[4] He injured his knee at Seminole State, which led to him quitting baseball and dropping out of college.[2]
Gattis' first job after quitting baseball was as a parking valet in Dallas.[6] He then visited his sister in Boulder, Colorado, and decided to reside there. He sold his truck and worked in a pizza parlor and as a ski-lift operator at the Eldora Mountain Resort.[4] Depressed, unable to sleep, and even contemplating to take his own life, Gattis was admitted to an inpatient psychiatric ward for three days in the summer of 2007, where he was diagnosed with clinical depression and an anxiety disorder. He was released into the care of his father.[3]
After living in Colorado for seven months, Gattis then moved to Dallas with his brother, where they worked as janitors for Datamatics Global Services. He met a New Age spiritual advisor there, and on her advice, he followed her to Taos, New Mexico.[4] There, he lived in a hostel and worked at a ski resort. Three months later, he moved to California to find more spiritual gurus.[4] Gattis also moved to Wyoming, where he worked at Yellowstone National Park.[2]
Baseball careerEdit
College and minor leaguesEdit
Gattis decided to return to baseball in 2010. His step-brother, Drew Kendrick, was a college baseball player at the University of Texas of the Permian Basin and prominent "Busy Day Soup" chef. Brian Reinke, the coach of the Texas–Permian Basin Falcons, remembered Gattis from his high school career, and offered him a spot on the team.[2][7] That season, he had a .403 batting average and 11 home runs.[4] He was named the Heartland Conference's player of the week for the week ending February 7,[8] and to the Conference's post-season first team.[7]
The Atlanta Braves selected Gattis in the 23rd round of the 2010 MLB Draft. He batted .288 with four home runs in 35 games for the Danville Braves of the Rookie-level Appalachian League that year.[7] He failed to make the opening day roster of any Braves minor league team in 2011, and remained in extended spring training.[9] He was added to the roster of the Rome Braves of the Class A South Atlantic League (SAL) in May. Gattis won the SAL player of the week award twice during the season,[7] and won the SAL batting title.[4] After the season, the managers of the 14 teams in the SAL named Gattis to the post-season all-star team.[7]
Gattis started the 2012 season with the Lynchburg Hillcats of the Class A-Advanced Carolina League. After starting the season with a .385 batting average, nine home runs, and 29 runs batted in (RBIs) in 21 games, he was promoted to the Mississippi Braves of the Class AA Southern League at the end of April.[10] With Brian McCann starting for the Braves and top prospect Christian Bethancourt regarded as an excellent catcher, Gattis was shifted to left field.[11] After the regular season, he played in the Venezuelan Winter League, where he batted .303 with 16 home runs and a .595 slugging percentage in 53 games, leading the league in home runs and slugging percentage.[12] He earned the nickname "El Oso Blanco", Spanish for "the White Bear".[9]
Atlanta BravesEdit
Gattis playing catcher for the Atlanta Braves in 2013
The Braves invited Gattis to spring training in 2013 as a non-roster player.[13] With a 19-for-53 (.358) performance in the Grapefruit League and McCann starting the season on the disabled list, the Braves added Gattis to their Opening Day roster to share catching duties with Gerald Laird.[9] On April 3, 2013, Gattis made his major league debut. He recorded his first hit as a major leaguer, a home run off of Roy Halladay, in his second at bat.[12] He batted .333 in his first eight games, also homering off of Stephen Strasburg.[5] Gattis was named the National League (NL) Rookie of the Month for April 2013, in which he batted .250 and led all major league rookies with six home runs, a .566 slugging percentage (SLG), 16 RBIs, and 43 total bases.[14]
Following the return of McCann from the disabled list and an injury to outfielder Jason Heyward, Gattis began to play left field for the Braves.[15] Gattis was again named NL Rookie of the Month for the month of May, after batting .303 with a .362 on-base percentage and a .683 SLG for the month, while leading all rookies with 16 RBIs and tying Jedd Gyorko for most home runs as a rookie with six. Gattis became the first rookie to win consecutive Rookie of the Month awards since Heyward in 2010.[16] Gattis was on the disabled list from June 19 through July 14 with a strained oblique muscle.[17][18]
With a 5-for-36 (.139) slump in August and McCann catching regularly, Gattis began to lose playing time.[19][20] The Braves sent Gattis to the Gwinnett Braves of the Class AAA International League on August 31 so that he could play regularly.[20] They recalled him on September 3, when the International League season ended.[21] On September 8 against Cole Hamels, Gattis recorded the longest home run of 2013, calculated at 486 feet (148 m), which was also the longest home run in the history of Citizens Bank Park. Later in that same game Gattis hit another 400+ foot home run off of Hamels after flying out to the warning track in a previous at bat. Hamels was quoted as saying "I felt like I was throwing a golf ball and he had a driver. He's probably going to be in the strongest man competition."[19][22][23] He ended the season with a .243 batting average, 21 home runs and 65 RBIs.[24][25] He played a total of 47 games in left field and 38 at catcher.[26] Gattis finished tied for seventh in NL Rookie of the Year balloting.[27][a]
During the offseason, Gattis had surgery to remove a bone chip in his knee, which had bothered him since 2006.[26] With McCann leaving the Braves to sign as a free agent with the New York Yankees,[24] Fredi González, the Braves' manager, declared that he planned for Gattis to start between 100 and 110 games at catcher, with Laird catching the remainder, during the 2014 season.[26] On April 16, in a 1–0 win against the Philadelphia Phillies, Gattis went 4-for-4 with one home run, the first time a player has accomplished this in a 1–0 victory since Rogers Hornsby in 1929.[28] On April 21, Gattis hit his first career walk-off home run, a 2-run shot off of Miami Marlins reliever Arquimedes Caminero in the 10th inning to give the Braves a 4–2 victory.[29] In June, he had a 20-game hitting streak.[30] He went on the disabled list on June 30 with a bulging disc in his upper back,[31] and returned to the Braves' lineup on July 21.[32] Gattis hit the game-winning home run, his 22nd of the season, against the Miami Marlins in the top of the 10th on September 6, 2014.[33] This would give him a new career high and make him the first Braves catcher to hit 20 or more home runs in his rookie and sophomore seasons.
During the 2014–15 offseason, the Braves traded Heyward with the intention of shifting Gattis to left field, with Bethancourt at catcher.[34][35]
Houston AstrosEdit
Gattis and Dallas Keuchel on August 21, 2016
The Braves traded Gattis and James Hoyt to the Houston Astros for Mike Foltynewicz, Andrew Thurman, and Rio Ruiz on January 14, 2015.[36][37] Gattis said he was a fan of the Texas Rangers as a youth and not the Astros, but also said it is a "good environment" in Houston.[38] During the 2015 season, Gattis hit 27 home runs in a career-high 604 plate appearances, spending most of the season as the Astros' primary designated hitter.[39] He also recorded 11 triples, despite entering the 2015 season with one career triple and being the second-slowest player in baseball, behind David Ortiz of the Boston Red Sox.[40]
Gattis lost approximately 20 pounds (9.1 kg) during the 2015–16 offseason by focusing on his nutrition and working with a personal trainer.[41] He started only 11 games in left field in 2015, none at catcher, and 136 at designated hitter. The Astros planned to play Gattis in the field more for the 2016 season, including left field, first base, and his original position of catcher.[42] Eligible for salary arbitration, the Astros and Gattis agreed on a one-year contract on February 16, 2016. The contract will pay Gattis $3.3 million for the 2016 season, with a $5.2 million club option for the 2017 season.[43] Gattis underwent hernia surgery on February 9, 2016, causing him to miss spring training.[44][45] He was activated in April 2016, having missed seven regular season games due to the operation.[46] In his first 20 games of 2016, he batted .203 with a home run and seven RBIs. He was optioned to the Corpus Christi Hooks of the Class AA Texas League on May 7, 2016, in order to transition back into a catcher.[47][48] He was recalled on May 18, and started at catcher the next day.[49][50]
The Astros exercised their $5.2 million club option on Gattis' contract for the 2017 season.[51] In 2017, Gattis played 84 games with a .263 batting average, 12 home runs, and 55 RBIs. The Astros finished the 2017 regular season with a 101-61, first in AL West, and won the 2017 World Series over the Los Angeles Dodgers.[52] Gattis' major contribution to the Astros' championship run was his solo homer in the fourth inning of Game 7 of the ALCS off of CC Sabathia to help the Astros advance to the World Series. The Astros won the World Series in a deciding 7 games against the Los Angeles Dodgers, giving Gattis his first championship title.[53][54]
Gattis elected free agency on October 29, 2018.
Gattis announced on October 22, 2019 that he was no longer pursuing baseball opportunities.[55]

Gattis married longtime girlfriend Kimberly Waters on January 14, 2017, in Frisco, Texas.[56]

Christmas in the Scottish Highlands by Donna Ashcroft
Welcome to the gorgeous little Scottish village of Christmas, where snow is falling, presents are being wrapped and the locals are writing their festive wish lists. Will this finally be the year that Belle's dreams come true?
Thirty-year-old Belle Albany is feeling lonely this Christmas. Another whole year has passed and her life is… exactly the same as it was last December. She longs for true love and a little bit of winter magic – but she's almost given up on finding it in the sleepy Scottish community where she lives…
When Belle crashes into elderly Edina on her cherry red bicycle, it's not the meet-cute she'd been hoping for. But she immediately recognises the lost look in Edina's watery-blue eyes and resolves to organise a Christmas to remember for them both – brimming with mince pies, mulled wine and lots of sparkle. Although Belle hadn't counted on Edina's home being a crumbling Scottish castle and she certainly hadn't been expecting Edina's handsome long-lost grandson Jack Hamilton-Kirk to turn up on the doorstep in the middle of a snow storm…
Jack is arrogant, rude and bossy and Belle is convinced he's about to ruin the seasonal cheer she has worked hard to create. He's basically the Grinch in human form, so why does her heart race every time they're in the same room? They disagree on almost everything, from menu choices to music, and yet she starts to glimpse a softer side hidden behind Jack's clipped words and brooding countenance.
As they hunt down costumes for the annual nativity show and save a donkey from a snowy disaster, Belle can't ignore their growing attraction. But will a secret from Jack's past come between them? Or will this finally be the year Belle falls in love?

But when the snow begins to fall and Sabine's family arrive at the house – including Dido's teenage crush Xan – tensions rise around the castle's future and long-buried mysteries begin to unravel…
As past secrets come to light, can this still be a magical Christmas to remember?

LOL They've been the perfect antidote for unemployment this year. Never before and probably never again. Enjoy

Love the selection of Christmas books, Jill. I had a tough time this year finding something that wasn't a holiday romance. Bah humbug. However, whenever I see a book about a Scottish Highlander now, I think of Jamie in Outlander. Gees, he's cute!
I can think of worse images to have in your head 😉😅 My Festive Reads list includes thrillers and mysteries to balance the romance.


Queen's Portraitist, Nigerian Chinwe Roy, Passes On - kaycee Weezy!
International painter and illustrious daughter of Nigeria in the Diaspora, Chinwe Chukwugo Roy, renowned for her portrait of Queen Elizabeth, passed on, on December 24 after a battle with cancer, according to family sources.
"Dear Molara, the family have asked me to contact you to let you know that Chinwe passed away at home last Monday following a long battle with cancer. Typically of Chinwe, she fought the disease right to the end but died peacefully in her sleep. Rogan, Alasdair, Yolanda and Nwiru were with her constantly over the past five weeks so she had her family with her.
"The funeral is at 2:15 on Friday 11th January at Seven Hill Crematorium near Ipswich and everyone is invited back to Glevering Mill (IP13 0EY) afterwards.
"Kind regards, Linda Barrett (on behalf of Chinwe's family)."
Roy, reputed as perhaps the only other artiste (after fellow Nigerian, the late Ben Enwonwu) that the Queen agreed to do her portrait made a memorable appearance during the Commonwealth Head of State meeting, CHOGOM, in 2004 in Abuja. That incidentally was one of the very few occasions when she really came to the attention of majority of her country folks as she had lived in the United Kingdom since 1975, and practised since 1975 but she had a huge reputation and extensive reach to other parts of the world. Though born in Nigeria, she was more known abroad than at home.
However, the National Gallery of Art under Mr. Joe Musa had also extended invitation to her during the African Regional Summit Visual Arts in 2008.
A note on her personal page states: "Born in Eastern Nigeria, Chinwe had always wanted to be an artist and took every opportunity to draw - even when this got her into trouble at school. She was greatly affected by the Biafran war both emotionally and through the lack of opportunities for study at that period in Nigeria. She travelled to Britain in 1975 and obtained a B.A. Hons. Degree in Graphic Design at Middlesex Polytechnic formerly Hornsey College of Art.
"She took up full time painting in 1988 and her work covers a wide area. As well as portraits in oils and pastels, her paintings depicting the history of the African continent have attracted wide acclaim. Chinwe also sculpts in clay. Her portrait commissions are extensive and the major commissions are listed on the exhibitions page. Her current major commission is to paint Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, at Buckingham Palace. She is the first black artist to do so. The commission, when completed, will hang in Marlborough House alongside that of her work of Chief Emeka Anyaoku the Secretary General of the Commonwealth whose portrait was unveiled by Her Majesty in March 2000."
Speaking on her art, the late artist, stated: "I am greatly inspired by people; but especially by the survival spirit and tenacity of the people of Africa. It is not surprising therefore that my portraiture has developed in the area of figurative historical paintings.
"The decision to concentrate on portrait painting initially came with the realisation that I was more interested in people than other subjects. It is a consuming challenge to capture people's characters, their outlook, the effect the world has on them and their response to it.
"This has gradually built up to involve me in the wider issues of cultures, countries and civilisations in Africa, through the ancient empires, slavery, colonisation, exploitation and their effects throughout the world.
"I try to portray the heat and the brightness of Africa and to create the mood that will convey the anguish and ecstasy through historical paintings such as 'The African Slave Trade' series, 'Ndu Ozo' and the 'Africa - Past, Present and Future' series."
She said drawing on her profound knowledge of Africa and its history, which emerges in any question and answer session on her work, she was expanding her portrait commissions and continues her paintings depicting African culture in its entirety.

Q: How to create mac vps (virtual private server) and access it via browser How to create mac vps (virtual private server) and log in to it via browser, I want to be able to create environment like http://www.macincloud.com/, i have os x server but not sure how to set it up so that it can be accessed via browser, reason i'm trying to do this is to be able to use xcode from windows machine over internet.
any help is much appreciate it

A: I'm not sure how OSX Server works, but I believe what you want to do can be completed using a VNC.
Here is a quick tutorial I found on youtube on how to create a VNC on your mac computer so that you can control it from another computer by logging into the VNC server.
You will not be able to use your browser to log in, so you will need to download a 3rd party application (tightVNC is mentioned in the video) to access your mac remotely.

Hope this helps!

A: If you requirement is something that you want to access through browser means you can do it easily using Apache(web server) which is preinstalled in mac and host something there with plain html page or with simple php which is also preinstalled in mac.
