Photography was basically the tool he needed to use for his purpose of recording the globe in a particular way (the only tool offered for that goal). Euh I wouldn't say 50 wonderful photographers just 50 most followed ones.. and that does not imply excellent top quality. Presumably, if animal portraits have been regarded a subject location, then it would be a lot higher in this list than dogs alone. A shoulder rig is as the name may suggest is a rig for supporting a professional camera (and other ancillary gear) that rests on shoulder.


This is the first of a new series called In Profile, during which we will take an in-depth look at some of Queen's Pantry's most specialized teas. To do this, my husband Nate and I hosted a few friends for a tea tasting. We had a blast! From the conversations to expanding our palettes, the whole afternoon was enjoyable.
But what exactly is a tea tasting? Let's do a quick tea tasting introduction, shall we? Tea tasting is pretty simple at it's core, but it is quite the experience. Not only is it a way to experience tea on a deeper level, but it can also be relaxing and calming.
When you participate in a tasting, you are looking for the underlying notes and flavors of each tea. Teas often have similarities, but they almost always have a specific flavor, or flavors that make each tea unique. When you are at a tasting, you are trying to notice each flavor.
The flavors that you taste, that stand out to you will be based off of what your palette is already familiar with, so tea tasting is intensely personal. A tea that has notes of graham crackers to one person may taste more like a malt to another. It all depends on what you already know, which leads to there not being a wrong answer!
When you go to experience tea this way, there are a few steps.
First up in our tea tasting line up is Tippy Yunnan. This bold, black tea comes from the southwest region of China, called Yunnan. The region of Yunnan is where legend says tea was discovered.
The following are the thoughts from our tea tasting. Each person was given a sheet to fill out with their thoughts, but not every tea got thoughts during each of the four steps. I had each person write down the first few thoughts that came to mind, so most of the comments are like bullet points. I am sharing their thoughts with you as accurately as I can.
Nate – The dry leaves: brown/ash.
Denise – The dry leaves: multicolored, brown and gold.
Nate – The wet leaves: stable aroma.
The brewed tea: it's very smokey – like a bonfire.
So what do you think? Would you ever attend a tea tasting?

Reserve Bank on housing – still all over the place
July 19, 2016 July 19, 2016 Michael Reddell Financial stabilty, Housing, Reserve Bank
As I was writing this, the Reserve Bank's latest set of regulatory interventions and controls were announced. I haven't yet read that document but from the press release I would make just three observations:
The flip-flops continue. After easing the LVR restrictions for non-investors outside Auckland last year, they now plan to totally reverse that change. As a reminder, when these controls were first introduced three years ago, they were all supposed to be "temporary". So, I suppose, were the exchange controls, introduced in 1938 and lifted in 1984,
The consultation process is a joke. Not long ago, as part of their regulatory stocktake, the Bank indicated that it intended to put in place materially longer consultative periods for its proposed regulatory initiatives (typically six to ten weeks). But in today's announcement they are allowing only three weeks for submissions on the new "proposals" to be made, and then plan to implement the changes three weeks after that. Only 10 days ago they were talking languidly of "a measure that could potentially be introduced by the end of the year". There is no real consultation going on, simply jumping through what they must regard as the bare minimum of legal hoops they must be seen to comply with. And they will, no doubt, continue to refuse to publish most of the submissions. It is, frankly, a travesty of democracy – and the nature of what is going on is well-illustrated by the Governor's statement that "We expect banks to observe the spirit of the new restrictions in the lead-up to the new policy taking effect." Citizens – even banks – are required to obey the law, not the wishes and whims of officials, elected or otherwise. None will do so of course – they are all too scared to challenge the Reserve Bank in public – but it would be interesting if a bank were to seek a judicial review of what is going on here.
The policy remains as incoherent as ever, in that the LVR restrictions will not apply to loans for new house building, even though the risks of losses are materially higher on new buildings – often on the peripheries of towns/cities – than on existing ones.
I was away when Grant Spencer's 7 July speech on housing was released, and although I glanced through it then on my phone, last night was the first time I had sat down and read it carefully. It was really quite disappointing.
I say that not primarily because I disagree with Spencer on many points – although I do. But reasonable people can interpret the same data and experiences in different ways. What concerns me is that the Reserve Bank still doesn't seem to have a disciplined framework for thinking about housing markets here or abroad, or about its role in respect of the efficiency of the financial system, and simply doesn't back up its claims with much analysis or research at all.
Grant Spencer gave a speech on housing in April 2015, shortly after I started this blog. At the time I was quite critical of that speech (here and here), and rereading those comments this morning I could easily simply repeat most of them now. They apply as much to the latest speech as to the one given 15 months ago. Back then I concluded:
Without more detailed and extensive analysis, it is still difficult to escape the conclusion that the Reserve Bank's approach to housing is being shaped more by impressions of the US last decade than by robust in-depth analysis of the sorts of specific risks the New Zealand economy and, in particular, New Zealand banks and the New Zealand financial system face.
That still seems to be the case.
Of course, not everything can be covered in a single speech. But good speeches by authoritative senior central bankers typically draw on analysis and research undertaken in their own institution and elsewhere. But Spencer's speech has no references to any other Reserve Bank research and analysis (other than his own April 2015 speech) and in fact no significant references to anyone else's research or analysis either – whether to support his case, or respond to alternative perspectives.
And even though Spencer is the Deputy Governor with explicit responsibility for the Bank's financial stability functions, nowhere does he even mention the Bank's stress tests. Perhaps he disagrees with the assumptions that were used in doing the stress tests – but if so, he should have had them changed – or perhaps the results are simply uncomfortable given that he knew his boss was champing at the bit to impose yet more controls. But it should be seen as simply unacceptable for a major speech on housing from the central bank's financial stability Deputy Governor to not even engage with the stress test results.
There is also nothing in the speech on how the Bank thinks about the implications of its ever-growing web of controls for the efficiency of the financial system – an explicit (and equal) part of the Bank's financial regulatory responsibilities. In his latest letter of expectation to the Bank, released a few days ago, the Minister of Finance indicated to the Governor that he expected the Bank to produce analysis on how the stability and efficiency goals were being balanced. Four months on from when that letter was written, there is nothing at all in Spencer's speech.
The Reserve Bank has explicit statutory responsibility for monetary policy, and for financial regulation to promote the soundness and efficiency of the financial system. It has no statutory responsibility for the housing market, or house prices per se. And it certainly has no responsibility for tax policy, immigration policy, land use regulatory policy, fiscal policy, policy around Urban Development Authorities, and so on. And yet in the speech, Spencer weighs in on all of them.
That is not good practice generally, and particularly not in this case where the Bank's comments seem to be based on no supporting analysis at all. Central banks are given quite considerable power in specific and limited areas, but continued support for central bank independence (whether in monetary policy or financial regulatory policy) depends in part on a sense that (a) the central bank is a technocratic, limited, institution that doesn't involve itself in other partisan or politically contentious issues, and (b) that when on very rare occasions the central bank might weigh in on matters outside its direct ambit, it does so backed by very sound research and analysis. Since central banks often have considerable research capacity, at times such research might be able to shed useful light on some of these wider issues. But neither of those criteria are met with the material in this speech.
I happen to agree with the Deputy Governor that the government should be reviewing immigration policy – which is itself quite a change of stance from the Governor's view on immigration only a few months ago – but I don't think it is a matter on which the Reserve Bank should be expressing a view. And in particular, it should not be expressing such views without the supporting research and analysis. There appears to be none behind these comments.
Much the same might be said for the government's recent announcement of a Housing Infrastructure Fund – the $1000m fund under which the government on behalf of the rest of us will lend interest-free to councils in high population growth areas. The Deputy Governor opines that this will "help to relieve an important constraint", except that (a) he references no analysis in support of this claim, which is perhaps not surprising as (b) no one has yet seen the details of the fund, which appeared to many to be more about getting a weekend's headlines rather than making a very material difference to the housing situation (recall that it is a $25m per annum interest subsidy, which doesn't seem likely to make very difference to anything that matters to a macro-focused agency).
Similar comments could be made about the Deputy Governor's views on taxes or Urban Development Authorities (compulsory acquisition wasn't explicitly mentioned, but I assume he is probably sympathetic). It is tempting to lodge an OIA request asking for copies of the analysis the Bank used in support of each of these policy preferences, but it is easy enough to guess how little there would be. After all, Spencer has form. In his speech last year, he advocated introducing a capital gains tax. When I asked for the analysis etc in support of that proposal – and was pretty sure there was none, as I'd left the Bank only a couple of weeks earlier and had previously written any material the Bank had on CGTs – it boiled down to a single brief email. It really isn't good enough.
I could go on. The Bank has still produced no analysis that looks carefully at the international experience of the last decade, including considering the countries where house prices did fall sharply and, as importantly, those where they did not. Instead, they cherry-pick a couple of countries with bad experiences, and don't ever stop to analyse the similarities and differences between those countries and their policy interventions and the New Zealand situation. They have still produced nothing explaining why they think the risks are now so much greater than in 2007, even though the banks' buffers are bigger, and any mood of exuberant optimism is much more attenuated. While I was still at the Bank I used to pose that latter question to Grant, and never got a serious attempt at a response.
The Bank also continues to anguish about the low level of global interest rates – the same attitude that has continued to leave them (and the Governor specifically) too reluctant to simply do their main job and keep inflation near-target. But even there, what they have to offer is unconvincing. We are told that low real interest rates are "a worldwide phenomenon linked to post-GFC caution", with no mention of the weak underlying productivity growth and demographics pressures that are at play. In other words, they treat low interest rates as some exogenous event, rather than something that is an endogenous response to the apparently poor fundamentals, here and abroad. Partly as a result we get anguishing about low interest rates driving up house prices, rather than a considered reflection on what it is that means interest rates in New Zealand need to be as low – or lower – than they are. For example, real per capita income growth is much less than it was.
Related to this, they simply ignore how not-very-widespread any serious housing market stresses really are. If low real interest rates were a major factor in the overall house price story we might reasonably have expected to see real house prices well above where they were at the end of the last boom. After all, at the end of that boom the OCR was 8.25 per cent, and today it is 2.25 per cent. Inflation expectations have fallen of course, but real interest rates are a lot lower than they were.
House prices not so much. I downloaded the QV house price index data. On the QV numbers, house prices nationwide have risen 18.5 per cent since the peak in 2007. But the CPI has risen 18.1 per cent over that period. In other words, in real terms nationwide house prices are barely changed from where they were in 2007, despite the sharp fall in real interest rates – and the boom that peaked in 2007 was much bigger credit event than what we have seen so far, and didn't end in banking system stresses.
In fact, plenty of places in New Zealand have real house prices today materially lower in real terms (and sometimes in nominal terms) than they were in 2007. Here is an illustrative chart from the QV data
Of course, the overall level of house (and urban land) prices in New Zealand remains far too high – far higher, relative to incomes, than in the vast swathes of the US with well-functioning housing supply markets – but in terms of the last decade or so, what we have had in mostly an Auckland boom. It is a very big boom in Auckland – as one might expect when unexpectedly rapid population growth collides with land use restrictions – and Auckland is a big place in a New Zealand context, but it is hardly a nationwide phenomenon. There is some spillover from Auckland to places like Hamilton, and the earthquake related pressures put, probably temporary, pressures on prices in Christchurch and surrounds. But vast swathes of the country – including our now second largest city – have seen no real house price inflation over almost a decade, or in some cases really quite substantial falls. There are plenty of smaller TLAs that I haven't shown individually – and almost all of them have had falling real prices – but they are included in the overall New Zealand number.
One would know nothing of this from reading the Spencer speech. And quite why the Bank considers it appropriate to have tight controls on access to housing finance in Gisborne, Wanganui and Invercargill remains a mystery – perhaps the new consultative document will shed some light, but I rather doubt it.
The citizens of New Zealand deserve (a lot) better from the Reserve Bank – and frankly, from those charged with holding it to account. Of course – since the housing problems are primarily a responsibility of the government – we also deserve a lot better from the government. Sadly, the Reserve Bank continues to take responsibility on itself for something it is not charged with, and then does not back up its claims with the standard of analysis and research that we have a right to expect. Far-reaching reforms are needed – different governance structures, reformed legislation, and different people across the top ranks of the Bank.

Home sales major contributor to national economy
Angling adventure
Totogan called the "New Chicago" of Manitoba — little remains to show it even existed
Annual Winnipeg in Bloom contest
A new report shows that the real estate industry makes a significant contribution to the economic well-being of Canada.
The resale housing industry in Canada generated more than 158,000 jobs and an average of $15.3 billion annually from 2004 and 2006, according to the study prepared for the Canadian Real Estate Association by Altus Clayton.
The report said each residential MLS® transaction generated an average of $32,200 in additional consumer spending in the period from 2004 to 2006. This included the purchase of furniture and appliances, moving costs, renovations, services, and taxes.
"Real estate continues to be one of the major engines driving Canada's economy," said CREA president Ann Bosley.
"This study shows the tremendous contributions Canada's resale housing industry makes to the economy above and beyond the actual cost of the home. When Canadians move, they typically buy new appliances or furnishings, and renovate in various ways to tailor their home to their specific requirements."
From 2002 to 2004, the average transaction yielded $24,697 in additional consumer spending. In the period from 2000 to 2002, it was $19,760.
The new study says the economic impact of each MLS® sale varies by province or region, from a high of $40,450 in British Columbia to $20,325 in Atlantic Canada.
Based on over 12,300 MLS® sales in Winnipeg last year, there was close to $400 million in economic activity generated locally. While modest in relation to the national figure, it is still a significant contribution to the local economy.
The report said spending relates to the cost of moving from one home to another and for renovations after moving in. It does not include any renovation expenditures by sellers to prepare properties for sale.
"Purchases and sales of homes trigger additional expenditures that have broad economic impacts," said CREA chief economist Gregory Klump. "Job creation is also a major factor of the sale of a home. The study shows that more than 94,000 jobs are created in Canada each year as a direct result of resale housing transactions."
The economic impact of the market for existing homes is also reflected in the sales processed by MLS® systems in Canada in 2006. The 2006 national MLS® report from CREA said there were 483,917 residential properties sold through the Multiple Listing Service® last year.

Cleveland Indians vs. Minnesota Twins - 7/12/19 MLB Pick, Odds, and Prediction
Created: 7/11/19
Minnesota Twins at Cleveland Indians
Friday July 12, 2019, 7:10 PM (EDT)
The Line: Minnesota Twins +113 / Cleveland Indians -122 -- Over/Under: 9
FSN, STOh
David Richard-USA TODAY Sports
The Minnesota Twins and Cleveland Indians meet Friday in MLB action at Progressive Field.
The Minnesota Twins look for a win after splitting their last 14 games. The Twins have scored 23 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in eight of their last 12 games. The Minnesota Twins have won six of their last eight games when scoring four or more runs. Jorge Polanco leads the Twins with 111 hits and 42 RBI while Eddie Rosario and Max Kepler have combined for 172 hits and 115 RBI. Kyle Gibson gets the ball, and he is 8-4 with a 4.09 ERA and 94 strikeouts this season. Gibson is 3-9 with a 5.46 ERA and 64 strikeouts in his career against the Indians.
The Cleveland Indians look for another win to build on their six-game winning streak. The Indians have scored 26 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in seven of their last 10 games. The Cleveland Indians have won 10 of their last 11 games when scoring four or more runs. Carlos Santana leads the Indians with 93 hits and 52 RBI while Francisco Lindor and Jose Ramirez have combined for 153 hits and 67 RBI. Mike Clevinger gets the ball, and he is 2-2 with a 4.44 ERA and 40 strikeouts this season. Clevinger is 2-2 with a 3.05 ERA and 41 strikeouts in his career against the Twins.
The Twins are 8-1 in their last 9 Friday games, 8-3 in their last 11 games following an off day and 2-5 in their last 7 road games. The Indians are 8-1 in their last 9 games following an off day, 19-7 in their last 26 overall and 11-5 in Clevinger's last 16 starts. The Twins are 2-6 in the last 8 meetings in Cleveland and the under is 11-5-1 in the last 17 meetings. The over is 5-1 in Clevinger's last 6 home starts. The under is 5-2-1 in Twins last 8 road games.
Gibson has been solid lately, allowing six hits and two earned runs in his last eight innings, but he's giving up a 4.47 ERA and .284 batting average in 48.1 innings on the road. In 161 at bats against current Indians, Gibson is allowing a .329 batting average and five homers. Clevinger has just 24.1 innings under his belt this season, but he's fresh off six scoreless innings on the road against Kansas City, and he's allowed just two hits and zero runs in 12 innings at home this year. The Cleveland Indians are also in one of those stretches where they simply don't lose, and they seem to have one of these runs every season. Give me the Indians.
Cleveland Indians -122

Plays with no skips, voice and guitar come through wonderfully, but the disc is "acetate noisy". There are a few tiny marks possibly paint that had been wiped or blotted off before it could harden, so it doesn't produce any skips or horrible pops. None of the metal plate is showing through. A couple of small paint spots and water marks on label. Only a few were made and only a few made it out from WB Music. The other important fact is that this is an edited version of the song which runs over five minutes. This Version is 3:50!

Home World Breibart's war on Muslim Brotherhood: The Egyptian connection
Breibart's war on Muslim Brotherhood: The Egyptian connection
Dr. Ashraf Ezzat
By Dr. Ashraf Ezzat VT Bureau Chief Alexandria, Egypt
Editor's note: VT was confronted by an article in the UK Guardian regarding Steve Bannon and his ties to an Egyptian politician the Guardian assets had quite possibly "crossed the line" in Washington. Toward that end, I contacted Ashraf Ezzat and set the ferrets, as it were, on Mustrafa El-Gendi.
Mustafa El-Gendi is an elected Egyptian Parliament Member since 2005, and he is currently the chairman of the African Relations' Committee in the Egyptian Parliament. Besides being an MP, El-Gendi is a well-known political activist and businessman.
He has strong ties with African politicians and businessmen especially in Uganda, Sudan and Ethiopia where he runs a huge business in those countries. Till this very day, Mostafa El-Gendi's fortune, political ties and business in Africa remains pretty much a big mystery.
The man is ever so present in the Egyptian primetime talk shows and news channels, an indication that he is somehow supported by the current Sisi's regime.
He is a smooth talker; he knows how to sway the opinion of the average Egyptians (especially the farmers of rural ad Upper Egypt). He is so clever in marketing his newly formed political party – The Coalition of Supporting Egypt- which is looked upon with favor by the current regime.
El-Gendi is one of the most popular (revolutionary) faces – Tahrir Square's heroes if you like – that were strongly linked to the January 25th revolution back in 2011 which toppled President Mubarak. Though he was not, as a businessman, totally opposed to Mubarak's regime, El-Gendi, and out of the blues started to take center stage as a political activist during the days of the January 25th revolution and afterwards. Before 2011, El-Gendi was relatively unknown to most ordinary Egyptians.
Mustafa El-Gendi is a fierce critic of the Muslim Brotherhood, and one of the popular figures that supported the uprising of June 30th 2013 which unseated President Mohamed Morsi – one of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) prominent heads in Egypt.
In the aftermath of the uprising (some say coup) that ousted Morsi and threw him and the rest of the MB leaders behind bars, El-Gendi was one of many Egyptian public and political figures that embraced and celebrated that uprising.
Though as a political activist El-Gendi sought a freer and more democratic Egypt, but he was convinced that the MB had hijacked Egypt and turned it into a theocracy by manipulating the very process of western democracy (Like what happened in Iran after the Islamic Revolution). Hence he wholeheartedly supported the uprising that deposed Morsi of the MB.
In an interview that was published last August 2016, with the Egyptian Newspaper, El-Watan, El-Gendi argued that the ascension of «Trump» to the presidency would amount to nothing short of a disaster for the (international) organization of the MB.
El – Gendi added «The members of the MB in America and Europe will go through hard (black) days in the coming years". In other words and before Trump's victory, El-Gendi had somehow come to know (maybe through leaked info through his connection with the Breitbart's guys) that the White House would soon declare the MB group a terrorist group, was Trump to win the Presidential Elections.
It is worth mentioning here that El-Gendi was one of those charismatic public figures who could sway Egyptians minds against MB. However, he admitted that MB propaganda in the West had pretty much overshadowed their successful uprising in Egypt that it is now almost seen worldwide as a military coup.
El-Gendi began to realize that a counter- MB Propaganda was desperately needed to try and sway the US/EU opinion in the uprising's favor. This is, I think, when his connection with Brietbart news and Steve Bannon came to take shape (and maybe by Egyptian governmental support)
He also saw that the defeat of the former candidate Hillary Clinton had somehow prevented a third world war, because, had she won, Hillary would have followed the disastrous steps of Obama's policy in the Middle East. El-Gendi predicted that the US under the new presidency of Trump would be supportive of Egypt's President and would also secure a huge loan by the International Monetary Fund to revive the country's sluggish economy.
When Mustafa El-Gendi, the Egyptian MP was asked about the true story behind his Washington house being hired by the Trump's Election Campaign manager, he had the following to say "The story is so simple. I'm a businessman and I have been investing in the sector of tourism for the last 30 years. My tourism company owns many cruise ships that tours across the Nile. It is only logical that my company would have bureaus/branches in USA and Europe to promote travelling to Egypt.
One of those bureaus/offices is in Washington DC. We thought the location was so good for promoting our business as it was in the heart of the US Capital. After the January 25th revolution 2011, tourism in Egypt took a hard blow that left our business almost paralyzed. Since we were in need for cash, I put the Washington bureau/office for rent or even sale.
By accident, the place was first rented by the US news website "Breitbart', and later it was rented again to an advertisement company headed by Steve Bannon, the man who ran Trump's presidential campaign and who turned my office into his campaign headquarter.
That made clear, it is obvious now that I have no connection, whatsoever, with President Trump campaign or his head strategist. Actually, it was the Guardian Newspaper that broke this story and incorrectly connected me with Breibart and Steve Bannon.
"I realize that this revelation was a bit disturbing for many, but it shouldn't once we come to find out that 55% of the Guardian shares are currently held by Qatar and MB figures. If the International MB group has a list of opponents (enemies) who should be defamed and politically destroyed by their controlled media platforms, my name will definitely be amongst the top in their list" said El-Gendi.
When asked what If Trump won the Presidential Elections, and how would that affect the 'Muslim Brotherhood' group?
"The way I see it, if Trump managed to get to the White House as the new US President that will be a catastrophe for the Muslim Brotherhood group. We, in Egypt and around the whole Middle East, are not fighting Daesh or the MB but we are actually fighting and struggling with the Obama/Hillary's criminal policy in the region.
Contrary to the Obama's administration the new Trump administration would envision the MB as a terrorist organization (like we do in Egypt). I know that Trump will actively hunt down the MB leaders in the US and I believe that England (the hub for fugitive MB leaders) will shortly follow suit.
This recent revelation has not managed to affect Mustafa El-Gendi's popularity inside Egypt. He remains a staunch supporter of June 30th uprising that has completely removed the MB out of the Egyptian political scene. Well, almost completely, for still a lot of black days loom ahead in the Egyptian horizon.

'The Oscar Wilde Temple' by McDermott & McGough is one of those artworks that's difficult to 'review'. Not because it isn't beautiful, wonderfully detailed, clever in its use of art history or politically poignant. It is all of those things. But because this entirely immersive installation isn't really intended to just be art.
Located at Studio Voltaire in Clapham, the temple makes perfect use of the fact that the gallery was originally a Victorian chapel. The duo has meticulously decked it out in the style of Oscar Wilde's day, from William Morris-esque wallpaper with clambering passion flowers to sea-green stained-glass windows.
Plants and flowers are found everywhere, all of them deliberately symbolic. Behind the altarpiece statue of Wilde is a large painting of the green carnations iconically associated with the writer, while huge floral arrangements of sunflowers, lilies and more lime-hued carnations adorn the stage. There are also pots of hart's-tongue ferns, a favourite of the Victorians who loved ferns like today's hipsters love succulents.
The little details constantly delight (especially if you're a sucker for Victoriana). On the walls are paintings fusing religious iconography with details from Wilde's life – his trial, his mother, his lover Lord Alfred 'Bosie' Douglas – and every last bit of script, colour, pattern and texture has obviously been agonised over. It also smells fantastic, like old varnished wood and church incense.
But the temple is more than that. On the back wall is a row of portraits: Marsha P. Johnson, Sakia Gunn, Justin Fashanu, Alan Turing… All of them punished, and in many cases murdered, for their sexual orientation. And at the other end of the space is a large book of remembrance to victims of the Aids crisis.
'The Oscar Wilde Temple' is essentially a shrine, a devotional offering to all that LGBT+ people have endured, past and present. In this respect, it's intensely sad, a reminder of entirely needless suffering. But that's not the full story. Until March, the secular space is available free for LGBT+ marriages, naming ceremonies, community events and more. A fitting tribute to a man who knew how to dress for a party.

Hi, my name is Chia, a 3 year old spayed female. I'm pretty, x-large lovable girl. I like some time to get to know my humans, though. But once I do, I'm forever loyal. I love to play with my catnip toys. I would love it best in a quieter home. I would do ok with other cats given some time to warm up! I hope you would take a chance on me, because BABY I'm WORTH IT!


trends: love it or leave it?
A couple of weeks ago Sweet Shoppe Designs asked a question on their facebook page, "What scrapbooking trends do you wish would disappear?" The responses were hilarious! There are quite a few passionate mustache and neon haters out there!
I love the wood papers as neutral backgrounds for pages, real or doodled; however, I just cannot get into the wood veneer trend. Is anyone with me? Maybe it's because I'm not a fan of light wood or maybe it's the burned edges. I don't know. Just something about it. If you do like this trend, Sahlin Studio has several wood veneer elements and word sets. Chelle's Creations also has cool PS styles where you can turn anything you want into wood veneer.
How about y'all? What trends do you love? Which will you leave behind?
I'm with you on the wood. It just never looks quite right on my pages. It's probably my shadowing or something but it just looks... not right.

Celebrate in style with your favourite people.
Taurus Horoscope for March 20 2002: Look over your credit report and tax statements; there could be a mistake in their favour.

Cancer Horoscope for March 20 2002: A person who you admired and respected could do something that disappoints you. Before you get disgusted, consider whether unusual circumstances may have come into play with their behaviour. Actually, this lapse in judgement could result in something good for you. Accept any leadership positions that are offered between now and late April.
Leo Horoscope for March 20 2002: If you're not satisfied with the state of your personal life, re-examine your values. Maybe you haven't been spending enough time on creative pursuits.

Sagittarius Horoscope for March 20 2002: The power dynamic in a close relationship is shifting, adding a dash of spice to your life. Although you liked things the way they were, it's important to change roles every once in a while. Otherwise, you'll get stuck in a rut. Abandon work in favour of fun, whether this means taking a trip, working on a craft project, or staying wrapped in each other's arms.
Capricorn Horoscope for March 20 2002: The Spring Equinox stirs your deepest emotions, causing you to look back wistfully at your past. Although a lot of water has gone under the bridge, there is still much work to be done. Don't brood over lost opportunities. Actually, your potential for success has never been greater. Let your emotions fuel those powerful ambitions.
Aquarius Horoscope for March 20 2002: If your social life isn't giving you much pleasure, it's time you made some changes. Seek out people who share your current interests.

January is the time to pack away all those Christmas toys and get organised for the new year ahead. But oh where on earth do we put everything? I am often fighting against overstuffed cupboards here.
I don't know about you but we seem to have just so many little bits and bobs…absolutely everywhere! I am always on the hunt for handy storage.
Vertbaudet has some lovely stylish storage for kids that is as good looking as it is useful.
I have fallen head over heals for this super car storage case which we reviewed. The red is so bright and cheerful. Isn't it gorgeous? It is made from really sturdy cardboard and looks fabulous inside and out. Lovely quality too and a nice size.
I am going to use ours to store small toys for car journeys and to have it always packed ready to go for days out. Meanwhile it can do it's job of looking rather lovely!
These fabric storage boxes from Verbaudet are also very stylish and I love the neutral colours and patterns that would fit with any décor. So handy at keeping possessions together and lovely and soft for a young child to manage a bit of tidying up themselves!
This star treasure box is also rather gorgeous and just perfect to store real treasures in like a first teddy or a first pair of shoes. One to be kept for ever!
When storage is this pretty it makes you want to pack everything away.
Have fun sorting your storage!
Oh these are just gorgeous but my absolute fave has to be the last one. I would actually like that bedside table in my room!
Gorgeous picks – I love the car storage box, I'm on a mission to replace our ugly plastic toy crates and this would be perfect!

French Banner HAGO Placards 'Sex (Re)Education,' 'Caro Nostra'
By becozo | October 18, 2022
Paris-based sales and cooperation banner Good One (HAGO) has boarded, "Sex (Re)Education" ("Septime Ciel") and "Caro Nostra" to Mipcom, Cannes TV market.
"Sex (Re)Education" is a 10-episode half-hour comedy series directed by Alice Viall, the 2018 César Award-winning short "Winkles."
The series, written by Clémence Azincourt, Clément Marchand and Vial, follows pensioner Jacques, who is placed in a retirement home by his daughter. When he thinks his life is over, he meets Rose and begins a passionate and lustful affair that wreaks havoc in the mansion. The cast includes Irene Jacob of Krzysztof Kieslowski's "Rouge" fame. Commissioned by French pay-TV group OCS, the show recently won best series at the La Rochelle fiction festival and is produced next episode by Henri DeBerme, a UGC-backed company.
"Caro Nostra" is a five-part TV drama series, produced by Elephant, the well-established company behind "Desperate Parents" and "Weekend Family." It was commissioned by Slash, the young-adult French television skating platform.
The series revolves around a vegan family that runs a traditional restaurant in Paris. Grandmother Rosa handles money, father Ambroise cooks, twins Vadim and Antigone wait tables. Although they look like a neighboring family, they are known to be cannibals. Their routine is shaken when Vadim falls in love with Vadim, a human his family intends to eat.
HAGO has also secured major drama deals, including "I Killed My Wife" and "Elle's Kitchen," a six-episode thriller series for 13ème Rue (NBCUniversal International Networks and Direct-To-Consumer). .
"I Killed My Wife" was acquired by Walter Presence/Global Series Network in the UK, Ireland, US and Canada, RTL Deutschland's channel RTL Crime, RTL TVI in Belgium, as well as TF1 Group for over-the-air TV and subscription. -VOD rights in France.
"Elle's Kitchen" will be sold to RTL TVI Belgium, TF1 Group (for free TV and SVOD windows in France) and TV5 Canada. Produced by CineTeve and 2425 Films, "Elle Kitchen" competed at the La Rochelle Fiction Festival.
Anne-Claire Villeneuve, head of Canadian acquisitions for TV5, said: "We were immediately captivated by 'Elle's Kitchen', directed by Annabelle Langron. "The series is refreshing, bold, humorous, and perfectly matches the editorial direction we want to take," continued Villeneuve.
HAGO has closed deals on "Bellefond", a 90-minute show starring famous French TV host Stéphane Bern. Produced for French television by Big Band History, "Bellefond" was purchased by Walter Presence/Global Series Network for the United Kingdom, Ireland and North America. On October 18, prime-time French TV will debut on Broadcast France Televisions. The second episode is currently in production.
The banner is a reference to Sabrina Van Tassel's documentary "The State of Texas v. Melissa" sold to RTL Deutschland channel RTL Crime. The docu is a true crime investigation of injustice. Melissa Lucio – the subject of the film – has been on death row for more than 14 years and lost her final appeal in February 2021. Her execution date was moved to April 27 and adjourned to April 26.
The film was released theatrically in France last September and was selected by more than 30 festivals and is currently streaming on Hulu in the US, Stan in Australia, Discovi in Latin America and other key territories.
Also on the HAGO list is "Sammy by Sammy," a documentary produced by Empreinte Digitale about Sammy Davis Jr.'s dedication to civil rights in the 1960s.
HAGO was founded in August 2021 by Virginie Boureux, former Playtime TV head of sales and acquisitions and former chairman of Charades, Constantin Brist.

You can buy those in Holland and Germany as well. So I expect you can also find them closer to your country. Maybe that makes it easier, don't know.

This girl has been a client for 5 years, quite nice in manner and small little thing, like 5'2" and 100lbs soaking wet.. My brain goes how the fuck is she still a student after 5 years? She looks young so I decide to google her. She always would speak a funny and I assumed she had a hearing problem / partially deaf. The speech impediment would get worse when she was asking for a discount but I shrugged it off as maybe nerves.
Turns out she's mid 30's, doesn't have a speech impediment / not deaf, has 4 differnt aliases. Then I find an arrest record for her.
Turns out she was convicted of phelony assault with a firearm, and the fine details were that in an argument she pistol whipped her boyfriend unconscious
Needless to say I stopped returning her calls

Workshop. It's a popular methodology that has made its way into many classrooms. Reader's Workshop. Writer's Workshop. I have even implemented Science Workshop as an integrated piece in my Reader's Workshop due to time constraints. And now, Math Workshop. With common core in effect, teachers are faced more and more with so much to do and so little time, let alone jump aboard the trend bandwagon. That's what this blog series will be about. How can I help you implement Math Workshop in the easiest and most effective way possible? Today is just a quick overview of what workshop is. The next few posts will really get into the "meat" of workshop.
Math Workshop is very much like Reader's Workshop, where you have a mix of whole-group instruction and small-group instruction. However, the main focus is on small-group instruction so you can work closer with students and meet their needs.
Just like Reader's Workshop, during Math Workshop teachers begin with a mini-lesson that is whole group. Teachers spend approximately 15-20 minutes introducing a strategy, modeling, and/or providing a think aloud on a specific math concept. Basically, during this time the teacher is just giving a taste, and setting the stage for small group instruction.
During this time, the teacher works with rotating small flexible groups to practice new skills, work with manipulatives, introduce new concepts, or elaborate more on the mini-lesson. This would be the more intensive and targeted instruction.
What are the Others Doing During this Time?
While you working with small groups, the rest of the class is participating in independent work or cooperative work. They may be practicing previously mastered skills, investigating new skills, playing math games, or writing in their math journal.
During Math Workshop, the teacher takes time out to confer with students each week. This is a good time to informally assess students' understanding and provide one-on-one teaching moments.
During the last five minutes or so of Math Workshop, students will share what they have learned, answer the essential question, journal, summarize, provide a vocabulary review or something related to the mini-lesson's focus.
Click on the picture below to download my Math Workshop freebie!
In my next few posts, I'll go into more detail about each of these components, what they really look like, and much more! You can find the next post here.
This looks great, Tammy! I would love to know more about how teachers operate math workshops in their classrooms! I am looking forward to the rest of the series!


We buy relays of all kinds, expensive!
We buy relays that are in use, illiquid from private individuals, as well as from companies, firms, from warehouses with any form of ownership for the highest prices. The cost of the relay depends largely on its type, purpose, country and year of production, etc. So if you would like to offer us this REC, please, contact us at first for consultation.
You can see the photo of the relays or go to the price list.
A relay is a part used in the radio and electronic industry, which opens/closes the circuits. This necessary element is used in equipment manufactured during the Soviet Union, somewhere from the 50s of the twentieth century. It is an aluminum box in which the contacts are located. These contacts were mainly made from rare-earth and pure precious metals, for the best work of all equipment. Since the beginning of the nineties, microcontrollers have replaced the relay.
Prices for different types of relays are published on the website, in the section "Price List". In order to simplify the evaluation of the goods, provided that you send us the details through the postal service, you need to sort the REC by the type, group, in the package, put the full description of the relay, preferably with photos on which the marking and color are clearly visible.
Are you interested in working with us? Then let's discuss the most favorable conditions for you to sell us REC. For this, you can call or write us via the feedback form.

Scottish Building Society is getting flexible with its new discounted mortgage.
The Scottish flexible mortgage has a discount of 2 per cent for the first six months of mortgage and is available for loans of up to 90 per cent of the value of the property, up to a maximum of £150,000. This gives it a payable rate of 5.5 per cent. The mortgage is only available for the purchase of properties in Scotland.
Borrowers looking to remortgage can benefit from free valuation and basic legal fees if a solicitor reccomended by Scottish Building Society is used. If the mortgage is redeemed in the first five years then the borrower will have to two months' interest in the first three years or one months interest in years four and five.
The mortgage offers the facilities to make overpayments, underpayments and to take payment holidays. However unlike other flexible mortgages interest is calculated monthly and not daily. There is also no facility to take lump sum withdrawal.
There are just two building societies that confine their lending to Scotland. These are Scottish Building Society and Dunfermline Building Society. However, Dunfermline does not offer any discounted flexible mortgages, making the Scottish Building Society mortgage unique.
The mortgage is also the most competitive six-month discounted flexible mortgage in the UK. The next most competitive mortgage is from Standard Life Bank which has a discount of 1.76 per cent, giving a payable rate of 3.74 per cent for loans of up to 90 per cent of valuation. The Standard Life Bank mortgage also has a redemption penalty of three months' interest in the first year.

Fort Stewart commander: more troops on the way
Ross Blair
Updated: Jan. 4, 2009, 5 a.m.
Get ready, they're coming.
That's what Fort Stewart and 3rd Infantry Division Commander Maj. Gen. Ton Cucolo told the Richmond Hill Rotary Club Thursday, noting an additional 10,000 soldiers and family members are expected to arrive over the next four years.
Cucolo said Fort Stewart is growing rapidly and is is ranked second among Army bases for projected military construction in 2009. $400 million in new construction is slated for next year, and "we're already cutting trees," he said.
The Army plans to spend $1.3 billion at Fort Stewart between now and 2013. He said what makes the area attractive to the Army is the "road, rail, air and port infrastructure. We are the deployment node of choice for the armed forces of the United States. It is hard to replicate the capabilities of Hunter Army Airfield being so close to the port of Savannah and the rail that links Fort Stewart."
Cucolo said Richmond Hill is "an extremely popular location for our army families. It's the atmosphere, the way you embrace them and all the great amenities of this community."
Cuculo said Fort Stewart is "the largest Army installation east of the Mississippi River" at 284,924 acres. He said 19,465 soldiers are stationed there.
"I can only house on post 20 percent of my assigned strength at both locations – Hunter and Stewart," Cucolo said. "So when I talk about growth, I want you to think about that … I need houses available by 2010."
Cucolo said he is providing local officials with information in order to determine "who's arriving when and what type of housing they'll be looking for."
He said when he was stationed in Fort Drum, N.Y., in 2004, he tried to get the word out to the community to prepare for the need for housing in anticipation for the arrival of 3,000 soldiers. He said many were skeptical the unit would actually arrive and failed to be proactive.
"If it's any incentive, the brigade we're building at Fort Stewart already is scheduled for deployment … we know it's going to be a reality," said Cucolo.
Cucolo, who also spoke of local soldiers who died in the line of duty, said he is grateful for the city selecting the military theme "Home for the Holidays" for its recent holiday festivities and for inviting him and his fellow soldiers to participate in the Christmas parade.
"That was not taken lightly or taken for granted by our soldiers – trust me," he said.
Rotarian and Mayor Pro-Tem Floyd Hilliard said he recently heard some loud booming noises coming from the Fort, which he hadn't heard in a while.
"We used to complain about our windows rattling from the artillery, but it's nice to hear (they're) home," Hilliard said.

Dan Engelstad is an American college basketball coach, and current head coach of the Mount St. Mary's Mountaineers men's basketball team.

Playing career
Engelstad played college basketball at Division III St. Mary's College of Maryland, where he graduated as the school's all-time leader in assists.

Coaching career
Upon graduation, Engelstad joined Milan Brown's staff at Mount St. Mary's where he was on staff for the Mountaineers' 2008 NCAA tournament team. He followed Brown as an assistant coach at Holy Cross in 2010, where he stayed until 2013 when he accepted the head coaching position at Southern Vermont.

Inheriting a program that was 1–24 before he took over, Engelstad led the Mountaineers to a 16–10 overall record, including wins over a nationally ranked Williams featuring Duncan Robinson. The following season, Engelstad guided Southern Vermont to a NECC regular season title, its best record in program history with a 25–4 record, and its first-ever appearance in the ECAC Division III New England Basketball tournament, capturing the school's first ECAC title of any kind.

The following season, Southern Vermont won both the NECC regular season and tournament title with a perfect 16–0 mark in conference play, and a 24–4 overall record en route to the school's second-ever NCAA Tournament appearance. Following a 17–10 overall record in the 2016–17 season and another NECC regular season title, Engelstad coached the Mountaineers to its fourth-straight NECC regular season title, its second conference tournament title and an appearance in the 2018 NCAA Division III tournament. With a 104–34 overall record in five seasons, Engelstad is the all-time wins leader in Southern Vermont basketball history.

Engelstad also served as the head coach for Armored Athlete in The Basketball Tournament 2017, helping the team reach the West Regional Final.

On May 9, 2018, Engelstad was named the 22nd head coach in Mount St. Mary's history, replacing Jamion Christian who left for the head coaching job at Siena.

Q: How to make a gradient ring in java for android? I am trying to draw out a ring with a nice gradient effect in java for an android application. I am trying to use the RadialGradient class found in android.graphics.RadialGradient, but it doesn't really do a gradient effect. I feel like it is just sort of mixing the 2 colors I subbed in for the color parameter, but I would like it to start from the first color I gave it and slowly transition itself to the second color in whatever direction it wants. The below is the code snippet for what I have tried.
paint.setColor(color);
paint.setAntiAlias(true);
int[] colors = {Color.argb(255, 255, 255, 0), Color.argb(255, 219, 219, 7)};
Shader test = new RadialGradient(X, Y, radius, colors, null, Shader.TileMode.CLAMP);
paint.setShader(test);
paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.STROKE);
paint.setStrokeWidth(thickness);

Don't worry about the variables that I used that aren't shown how it was initialized. That part is not important.

ZANESVILLE - City officials have completed edits on a proposed nuisance abatement policy, following concern and confusion from local landlords.
The city's Public Safety Committee met Thursday night in a special meeting to discuss final edits to the policy that would standardize the way the city handles chronic nuisance properties.
In addition to minor changes to clarify the language of the policy, the most significant change comes with the removal of the private cause of action. Previous versions of the policy included a section allowing property owners within 1,000 feet of a chronic nuisance policy to file suit against the chronic property owner.
"We determined you can already sue for anything, and we didn't know if we really wanted to take that on," council member Rob Sharrer, chairman of the committee, said Thursday.
In addition to council members, Zanesville Police Chief Tony Coury, Judge William Joseph of the Zanesville Municipal Court and Muskingum County Assistant Prosecutor John Litle also attended the meeting, answering questions from a half-dozen local landlords concerned about the policy.
Many of the landlords were either misinformed about the policy or felt the policy would unfairly penalize landlords when nuisance activity occurs on their property.
Under the policy, a property would be considered a chronic nuisance after three nuisance activities, such as alcohol, drug, gambling and sex offenses, disorderly conduct or weapons violations, or two felony drug activities within a six-month period. After the first two nuisance activities or the first felony drug offense, the property owner will receive a letter from the chief of police informing them about the nuisance activity and requesting they take steps to abate the issue.
"People live in these neighborhoods. They do not deserve to have someone having a house that they rent to people next to them, putting needles in their front yard, having people overdose in front of their kids," said Litle, who worked with Zanesville's Law Director David Tarbert to draft the policy. "You can't want these people on your property unless you are part of the problem and you're profiting off of people slinging dope. And frankly, to me, that is not a sympathetic case."
Sharrer reiterated that the city is not looking to target landlords, but rather remove chronic nuisances.
"We want the problem fixed, like you do," he said. "You're all good landlords. You don't want these problems on your property."
Committee members voted to recommend the edits to city council. The ordinance, which was postponed at the end of the year before its third and final reading, will be on the agenda for the next city council meeting on Monday, Jan. 14. Council will adopt the edits, but postpone the third and final reading and passage until the following city council meeting, to allow time for any remaining public input on the final draft.
