Safe Social Networking Sites for Kids & Tweens
posted by Heidi Leder on March 14, 2012 in Family and Parenting, Kids, Computer Safety & Support, Guides & Reviews, Social Networking :: 11 comments
While it may seem easier to ignore social networking sites and hope they'll go away, they won't. The age of social media and openly sharing information to find others with shared interests beyond geography is here to stay. While navigating tween and teen years can be precarious, it's equally important these days to learn the process of "finding" and defining oneself in the online realm as well.
The best social media sites for kids and tweens (ages 7-13) adhere to the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), which regulates how much personal information sites can ask from kids under 13 years old, among other things. Like good kids online gaming sites, most of these sites require a parent account, or for parents to verify that they are who they say they are via a one-time credit card verification (typically requiring a $1 fee). A good step toward keeping your kids safe online.
With the popular Togetherville site shutting its doors after being acquired by Disney last year, many kids and parents are looking for a similarly safe-yet-fun place to hangout online and practice savvy social media skills. Here are some social networking sites for kids and tweens that give them some freedom to explore the social media realm while giving parents the control to monitor and guide their process:
giantHello
Previously called FaceChipz, giantHello is a social gaming network for tweens that comes very close to mimicking the social networking look-and-feel of Facebook with similar profile pages and layouts.
Once you "friend" another tween, you can leave comments, send private messages, join groups, update your status, upload photos and more. Users even have a news feed and can follow tween celebrity Twitter feeds.
Kids need to share invites with their friends in real life via email or by printing out an invitation code to "friend" them on the site, so everything is connected through the "real world."
To establish an account, parents must verify their identity via the usual credit card charge ($0.01), or via the last four digits of their social security number. The gaming experience is similar to what you find on Facebook.
Imbee
Imbee is quickly becoming a hip and trendy place for tweens to hang out, with a focus on popular media and entertainment with imbeeRadio and tween celebrity news in their imbee Wrap Up.
Imbee also has its own web series and specials like Schooled by Andrew Bosch, Mindless Behavior, The Donkey Boyz, and The Titus Show. Tweens can upload photos and videos, chat with other imbee friends, create their own group or join a FanZone.
A parent must open an account, and they control the security settings to ensure age-appropriate parameters for the child's online activities on the imbee site. Only parents and friends can see anyone's zone, or profile blog, and kids must know another tween's imbeename in order to add him or her as a friend. Imbee is free to use, but requires a $1 parental credit card verification. The sweet spot for this site is the upper range of tweenhood: closer to 10 years old and up.
Kidsocial
Kidsocial defines itself as a social entertainment network for kids and tweens to connect online with "real world" friends. It has the sleekest look of these social media networks, with the presence of relevant brands and branded entertainment pages. This of course, may also qualify KidSocial as one of the coolest social media networks for tweens.
In addition to the usual social network activities, while on KidSocial, tweens can challenge each other in online games, watch streaming content from Hulu, YouTube or Grooveshark via special family-friendly filters. Which again, raises the cool factor.
KidSocial is COPPA compliant, with users under 13 years old being tethered and monitored by a parent account. Each user receives a friendship code to share with a real life friend to connect on KidSocial, and both sets of parents have to approve the friendship online. Users older than 13 don't require parent approval, but parents can enable it for teenagers if they prefer.
KidzVuz
KidzVuz is a social network site where tweens can share their own video reviews about the toys, movies, books, songs - almost anything - they like or use. The site has an integrated webcam so kids can conveniently record a review without leaving their computer. Like a modern fan club community assimilator, KidzVuz gives kids the freedom to safely stay anonymous yet connect with other kids with similar taste. Users can complete missions or earn badges for posting reviews or answering surveys.
KidzVuz is designed for the under 13 year-old crew, but does require the ability to read and record a video, so the sweet spot would be about 8-10 year olds. Parental oversight is required for each account, and each video is approved before posting by a trusted team of moms.
Scuttlepad
A great social media starter network, Scuttlepad gives 6 to 11 year olds exposure to a social media network with parental approval, but no adults allowed as members. Kids can join groups and post photos or videos, and even print out "trading cards" to hand to friends in real life to get them to join them on Scuttlepad. Each photo is manually reviewed before posting, and kids can only communicate with others through a list of predefined and approved words in a format that teaches how to build a sentence one word at a time. Using these preset words negates the possibility of negative or a cyberbully behavior.
The site is better suited for 6-9 year old kids as a clean first social media experience, but the graphics and limited options for interaction with others, mean that kids may grow out of it quickly. Scuttlepad is free to use.
WhatsWhat.me
WhatsWhat.me takes security a step further than the other sites, requiring a webcam for kids to log in with facial recognition technology, and only allows kids to communicate with others in their grade. A human actually double checks that the "MeKey" facial profile matches the submitted age each time the account signs in. The site offers all of the social media main activities: messaging, friending, surfing their friends' profiles and joining groups.
Tweens can communicate with others they don't know on the site, but they can't "friend" someone outside of their grade level unless a parent approves it. WhatsWhat.me costs $4 a month or $30 for the year and is geared toward 7-13 year olds.

tween to teen social network
From Momerator on April 15, 2012 :: 9:37 am
Isis So Silly (http://IsisSoSilly.com) is a social network for both tweens and teens. The site is owned and moderated by me, "Momerator", but my daughter Isis, co-owns and promotes the network with a positive attitude. She had the idea of being the Internet iCarly-esque so we decided to use this as a vehicle.
Feel free to have your kids sign up to a social network where kids tweens and teens can socialize and have a mom around to monitor it. It's free to join
Social Networking Tweens
From Adian Williams on July 25, 2012 :: 12:57 pm
These are some really great sites. Kids and Tweens enjoy socializing and I believe it is important for them to use technology. Secure sites can offer kids a place to connect with other peers without worrying about online predators or inappropriate content. Another site that is secure for young children is Kids Social Network. It is similar to Scuttlepad and Imbee because kids can chat, play games, and get help with school work. You can check it out at http://www.kidssocialnetwork.com.
New safe social networking site
From nithy sithambaram on July 30, 2012 :: 10:02 am
Nice collection of sites and good reviews.
www.avotars.com, is a new social networking site, not just for children, but for everyone, with
safe features for introducing and connecting kids.
The site has some unique features, like creating a kids profile from the parents profile. The kids profile will be private, and safe,
so that no other users can view this profile, at the same time, from the kids profile, we can initiate a contact to request friends with
other profiles, and still its safer, as its not visible to friends of this contact once accepted.
There are features like, diary, where stories, and journals can be posted everyday. Schedules can be created for each day, and
can be updated by both parents, and the network connections, such as a Nanny or a child carer. This will help parents to know
about their child's every day activity.
We can also create profiles for personals, and others too, and lots more features are being developed to make this site a leading
site in future.
The website is in beta version, as lot more developments are being considered,
and its me who have developed this site, and not funded by anyone.

Totenmesse ist ein Fernsehfilm aus der Kriminalreihe Tatort der ARD, des ORF und SRF. Der Film wurde vom MDR am 20. Mai 2001 erstmals ausgestrahlt. Es handelt sich um die Tatort-Folge 471. Für Kriminalhauptkommissar Bruno Ehrlicher und seinen Kollegen Kain ist es der fünfte Fall, den sie in Leipzig ermitteln.

Handlung
Hagen Peukert von der Urban Invest AG ist unzufrieden mit der altbackenen Filmpräsentation der Messe Leipzig. Sein Mentor Caspar Freyberg sieht nicht nur das Schlechte, überlässt das Feld aber Peukert. Gemeinsam besuchen sie Architekt Martin Frings, der gehörig unter Druck steht – immerhin hat er Heuschnupfen und die Steuerfahndung im Haus, wie er seiner Buchhalterin Margit Baumann gegenüber äußert. Freyberg fordert gegenüber Frings eine günstigere Lösung für die Dachkonstruktion.

Margit Baumann verlässt das Architekturbüro mit einem süffisanten Grinsen und führt ein typisches Erpressergespräch mit sehr teuren Modelabels im Hintergrund. Nachdem ihre finanziellen Forderungen unverschämt werden, schreitet ein unbekannter Mann zur Tat und stößt sie vom Balkon des 6. Stocks.

Nach einem vergeblichen Anruf bei seiner Geliebten Susanne Scheffler trifft Hagen Peukert seine trauernde Frau Claudia zuhause an – zieht sich aber wortlos zurück und weist sie danach ab. Seine Geliebte macht große Pläne mit ihrem Freund Markus Ringwald und kann für die Idee, mit Hagen Peukert nach New York zu gehen, keine große Begeisterung entwickeln. Trotzdem treibt sie das Doppelspiel weiter, beglückt Hagen Peukert und stößt Markus Ringwald vor den Kopf, der zufällig währenddessen in ihre Wohnung kommt.

Martin Frings gibt gegenüber den beiden Kommissaren zu, dass er am besagten Abend bei Margit Baumann in der Wohnung gewesen sei, wo er sie bezüglich der Geldunterschlagung zur Rede stellen wollte, die durch die Steuerprüfung herauskam. Mehr könne er dazu nicht sagen.

Mit untrüglichem Gespür konfrontiert Ehrlicher Freyberg, dass doch eigentlich er und nicht der wesentlich jüngere Peukert der geeignete Mann für den Vorstandsposten in New York sei. Freyberg gibt eine wenig überzeugende Antwort. Nach der Nominierung Peukerts als Vorstand besuchen er und seine Frau Claudia das Grab der vor drei Jahren verstorbenen Tochter Mareike. Claudia Peukert ist erleichtert, in New York Abstand zu den Geschehnissen zu bekommen. Ihr Mann kann das nicht mehr hören und rennt stante pede zu seiner Geliebten, die "Ja" zu New York sagt.

Kurze Zeit später belegen anonym zugesandte Unterlagen, dass Susanne Scheffler von Frings auf Peukert angesetzt wurde. Am nächsten Morgen wird Susanne Scheffler tot im Schoß von Ringwald aufgefunden, der ein großes, blutiges Küchenmesser in seiner Hand hält. In der Musik-CD-Sammlung finden Kain und Ehrlicher ein inniges Foto von Scheffler mit Peukert. Peukert spricht von einer "flüchtigen Affäre" und bekommt ein Alibi von Freyberg, der in seiner Jagdhütte ein Video vom Unfall Mareikes aufbewahrt und Ehrlicher zeigt.

Peukert quittiert seinen Dienst, Frings, protegiert durch Freyberg, feiert, nur die Kommissare sind noch keinen Schritt weiter. Durch einen Strafzettel kommt Peukert Freyberg auf die Schliche und bedroht ihn mit der Schrotflinte in der Jagdhütte. Die Kommissare können ihm folgen und beide festnehmen. Walters Flusensieb und der teure Pullover überführen Freyberg für den Balkonsturz von Margit Baumann. Ehrlichers Scharfsinn überführt Claudia Peukert für den Mord an Susanne Scheffler.

Rezeption

Einschaltquoten

China and India Poised to Lead Asia in Harnessing Wind by 2050: IRENA Report
Asia to dominate the total global offshore wind power installations predicts IRENA
The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) has released its latest Global Energy Transformation Report, which explores global energy development scenarios up to the year 2050.
The report states that Asia – mainly China (at more than 2,000 GW) and India (at more than 300 GW) – would continue to lead global onshore wind power installations, with the region accounting for more than half (2,656 GW) of the total global capacity by 2050.
After Asia, the report says, a large number of onshore wind power deployments would occur in North America (mainly the U.S., at more than 850 GW), where the installed capacity would grow more than ten-fold from 2018 levels, reaching around 1 150 GW by 2050.
Ongoing improvements in wind turbine technologies and deployment of the latest technologies in markets such as China and India would further improve the average capacity factor, to reach 55% by 2030 and 58% by 2050, notes IRENA.
The reports adds that at the regional level, Asia would continue to lead the way and it would account for more than half of the global average annual investments, with almost $98 billion/year invested in the region from now until 2030 and $101 billion/year invested in the last two decades to 2050 (mostly in China and India).
Offshore wind technology gives countries the freedom to exploit the generally higher and sometimes smoother wind resources offshore while achieving gigawatt-scale projects close to the densely populated coastal areas.
The report underlines that going forward, a prominent shift in deployment would take place in Asia (mostly in China and India) in the next three decades. Asia would eventually dominate global offshore wind power installations with a total capacity exceeding 100 GW by 2030 and 600 GW by 2050.
At the regional level, more than half of the overall global average annual offshore wind investments would be needed to accelerate offshore wind deployments in key emerging markets in Asia.
India is also making rapid strides in the development of wind energy. The report states that the Indian market is structured very differently as compared to other wind markets in Europe and the U.S. Siemens-Gamesa is the only European player with meaningful market penetration, having a share of 23.8% in 2018. The market is dominated by local manufacturers (Suzlon 33.7%, Inox 12.1%). GE is the only other non-Indian producer in the top six suppliers.
The report further notes that India has introduced a national wind-solar hybrid policy to resolve grid integration issues, with a proposed target of 10 GW of hybrid projects to be installed by 2022. Before approval of this policy, Hero Future Energies completed India's first hybrid project, combining a 50 MW wind farm with a 28.8 MW solar PV site in Raichur district in April 2018. The Solar Energy Corporation of India recently issued tenders for 2.5 GW of hybrid wind and solar projects to be connected to the country's Interstate Transmission System.
SECI had initially tendered 2,500 MW of ISTS-connected wind-solar hybrid power projects (tranche-I). Later, the capacity of the ISTS-connected wind-solar hybrid power project was reduced to 1,200 MW. Since the tender was undersubscribed by 150 MW, SECI auctioned only 80 percent of the bid capacity (1,050 MW), which is 840 MW.
In the first mega solar-wind hybrid auction conducted in India by SECI, a tariff of ₹2.67 (~$0.03794)/kWh had emerged as the lowest one.

Montecalvo Scores Top 10 Finish At Watkins Glen
Thursday, July 5, 2018 – Highlands, NJ –After one of the hottest races on record, Scuderia Corsa driver Frankie Montecalvo, along with teammates Townsend Bell and Bill Sweedler, finished tenth in class at the Sahlen's 6 Hours of the Glen last weekend.
With ambient temperatures in the high nineties and cockpit temperatures well over 110 degrees Fahrenheit, the drivers were faced with a daunting challenge of staying cool and hydrated while managing traffic and running a clean race.
"I think we had a really good run considering everything the track threw at us this year," stated Montecalvo.
"Bill did a great job at the start, and even though it was extremely hot with temperatures close to 120 degrees in the cockpit, he was able to do a double stint, which was great for our strategy. My first stint was pretty uneventful. The series mandated new camber changes before the race, so I just tried to get acclimated with the car and stay out of trouble during my first stint."
"Townsend did a great job during his first stint and was able gain a few positions in class. I got back in the car after Townsend's stint and went about five laps and had a tire blow on the entry into turn two. It was a little scary given where I was on the track because it's a very fast section, but luckily I was able to keep it under control and avoid any contact."
"I was grateful to be able to keep the car out of the wall and on the track after the tire puncture, but because it happened in turn two, I had to drive all the way back around the track with the flat at a slow enough speed so that I wouldn't damage the car."
Montecalvo had worked his way up to P8 in class, but fell back two spots to P10 after the rear tire puncture. The Scuderia Corsa team was able to quickly fix the tire and get him back on track for the final hours of the race.
"Townsend did a great last stint and brought the car home for us in P10. For not being on track since March, the team and drivers performed flawlessly and I can't thank Scuderia Corsa, Townsend and Bill enough for a great weekend. The car ran well all weekend, and I'm already looking forward to being back on track for our final race of the season at Petit Le Mans in October."
The next race for Montecalvo will be the Motul Petit Le Mans. The 10-hour enduro will take place at Road Atlanta on October 13. Be sure to follow Frankie on Facebook and Twitter to stay up to date with all of his racing news.

EnviroSTONE is a sand mixed with a plant glue, designed specifically for the joints of sandstone flagging. Our landscape flagstone products are designed to simply stay in place. It keeps the sand from washing out and keeps the weeds out!
Envirobond's landscape flagstone products installation information is both thorough and informative, providing instructions as well as tips for DIY homeowners and contractors.
EnviroSTONE landscape flagstone products are a blend of sand and our patented plant-based glue, Organic-Lock.
Organic-Lock is the result of more than 10 years of scientific research, in the lab and in the field, involving researchers in the fields of agricultural, geotechnical and geological sciences. It's been scientifically designed to prevent washouts, while remaining flexible in your segmental system.
EnviroSTONE is specifically designed for paving systems with joint widths greater than 3/8 inch, or 0-10mm and less than 2 inches (50mm).
Weeds don't grow from the bottom up. They grow from the top down when your jointing material washes out and gets replaced by debris and organic matter. This contaminated material is a nutrient rich medium that is favorable for seeds to grow into nuisance weeds. Because EnviroSTONE stays in place, it prevents the build up of the favorable growing medium for weeds!
A segmental system like flagstone, is designed for slight individual unit movement….that's how it gets an increased load bearing capacity. It is, therefore, imperative that your jointing material remains flexible to adjust with that movement. On top of its ability to resist erosion, Organic-Locks self-healing properties, allows it to remain flexible.
Unlike other jointing sands and pathway stabilizers, our landscape flagstone products are made from 100% naturally occurring materials. Good for the environment and completely safe for plants, animals and people.


One of Japan's greatest inventors, he was known as "the genius of mechanical wonders."
Toshiba's founder, Hisashige Tanaka, was born the eldest son of a tortoiseshell craftsman in 1799. At the age of twenty-one, he performed at a local shrine festival with clockwork dolls he constructed himself. This display of technical wizardry created such a stir that he ended up traveling the length and breadth of the country as an itinerant entertainer. Eventually he settled down in Osaka to sell his inventions, including the extremely popular Mujin-to rapeseed-oil lamp that used a compressed air fueling system to burn extra long. Then he scaled further heights of technological ingenuity with Man-nen Jimeisho, the finest traditional Japanese-style clock ever made.
In 1854, Hisashige was invited by the Saga clan to help construct steamboats and telegraph equipment. In 1873, he moved to Tokyo to develop a telegraph system at the request of the new national government, which had grown out of the Meiji Restoration. Hisashige's work helped the government meet its goals for economic development with infrastructure improvements in the communications network. Throughout his long life, Hisashige was always ready to meet new challenges. He was an inventor to the core and never lost his penchant for fine craftsmanship.

'Five Feet Apart' Movie Review: A Familiar Love Story With a Bigger Message
Jacqueline Lainez Posted On March 26, 2019
Five Feet Apart stars Cole Sprouse and Haley Lu Richardson as Will and Stella, two teenagers diagnosed with cystic fibrosis. It tells an emotional and heartfelt story about it and due to the illness, anyone with cystic fibrosis must never be more than 6 feet close to each other because of the risk of cross contamination and infection. It's a story of familiarity, but luckily manages to bring more depth and a bigger message onto the table but not without having its own small flaws.
What I originally thought was going to be a copycat story to the movie The Fault in Our Stars ended up being a story with a bigger meaning than two teens falling in love but what having an illness like cystic fibrosis does to the minds of these individuals. It takes a toll on them and that message is clear as day throughout the film. The story itself is something we have seen in films in the past because it's a formula we are already familiar with.
Unless you live under a rock, most of us are familiar with the Riverdale star Cole Sprouse, who still manages to bring his wit and charm to this role along with Haley Lu Richardson known for starring alongside Hailee Steinfeld in The Edge of Seventeen. Cole Sprouse and Haley Lu Richardson really made this film to be a lot more than just mediocre. They portray and convey the physical and mental state of Cystic Fibrosis patients. Their chemistry really shows and shines through. Both of them taking on roles in what I believe is in a respectful manner.
Like I said before, this film has a very familiar formula of a typical teen love story with something a little bit different, here and there. Definitely not completely predictable, but familiar. My biggest critiques is the inconsistent pacing that only becomes a litte more consistent after the first act of the film. Some of the smaller flaws do not necessarily take away from what the film's message is and that was a huge relief despite having a couple of things happen that did not seem to make complete sense.
The thing that resonated the most with me throughout this film is as you continue to watch this film, we learn a lot of the other battles that Richardson's character Stella has gone through and it makes you realize that an illness is not always their only battle. An illness that can kill might not always be what will kill a loved one first.
What surprised me most about this film is how it ironically felt like it took my breath away at times. Stella and Will both made me nervous, tense and happy for what their relationship was like throughout the movie. Certain moments made me feel for these characters and honestly it broke my heart or warmed it.
After a slow first act, the film gained a much better pace to get things going in both what happens in the film and how Stella and Will's relationship begins to blossom and evolve. Even after the fact that what I thought to be a little too rushed for them to have such a strong relationship, it made sense and was justified because they are two very ill young teens who do not know when they could take their last breath.
In the end, Five Feet Apart tries to create a unique story and in a sense, it does, but it's also a very familiar plot. Despite that, we have two amazing actors with some of the best interactions I have seen in such a familiar formula. This movie teaches all of us that whether we are sick, healthy, young or old, we need to remember to love in the present because what happens in life is not always in our control and as cheesy as it sounds, you should live, laugh, and love in the now. Five Feet Apart is a story of a friendship turned love story that reflects that very message and so much more.
Five Feet Apart is currently playing in theaters.
The film stars Cole Sprouse, Haley Lu Richardson, Moises Arias, Kimberly Hebert Gregory and Parminder Nagra.

Request letter, to the United States President Mr Joe Biden & UNSC members, to help save our leaders and restore democracy in Myanmar
Min Tun Min Aung 0 Comments
Dear Mr President Joe Biden,
Dear UNSC members,
Myanmar Democracy icon, Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and the leader of Myanmar (Daw Aung San Suu Kyi) is currently being held at an unknown location. She was kidnapped by the Military Junta since 1st Feb, 2021.
Nobody knows how the military junta treat her due to lack of information.
We are very worry about her current situation. She feels sick and dizzy often nowadays. She is not a criminal and never committed a crime. She is a politician.
So, she must have the rights to access with her family, lawyers and friends.
The family, the lawyer and the public have the rights to know her location.
The UN and world leaders shouldn't be just watching in a dangerous situation of her and the President of Myanmar.
We, the people of Myanmar strongly request to UNSC and the US President that "Urgent action needed to rescue her and the President of Myanmar".
We know that the United States of America and Mr President Joe Biden have the power and kindness to save her as well as our President.
We would like to respectfully and urgently request that Mr President to help save our leaders and restore democracy in Myanmar.
We would like to respectfully and urgently request that UNSC to help save our leaders and restore democracy in Myanmar.


Advertising expenditure in the outdoor media market, such as billboards and transit advertising, is set to soar this year, clocking 15 per cent growth year on year. Since it cannot be skipped by consumers or blocked in outdoor environments, the out-of-home (OOH) medium has remained the core channel to reach mass urban audiences.
In 2017, the OOH market in India grew by 6 per cent and now stands at ₹3,085 crore. While retail topped the list of spenders on OOH, the telecom sector recorded the highest growth in OOH advertising, courtesy the high-voltage launch of Reliance Jio, according to Sam Balsara, Chairman of media buying agency Madison World.
"In 2016, yearly spends on the OOH medium were ₹2,910 crore, while it rose to ₹3,085 crore in 2017. This year, we are expecting OOH spends at ₹3,395 crore. Though e-commerce will remain the backbone, the organised retail sector will continue to show the highest growth on this medium," Balsara said.
As the reach of digital crosses 450 million and the smartphone Internet user-base crosses 300 million in India, "digital is likely to hit the big boys of media in a bigger way than it already has," he added.
Underscoring this, a new analysis of the sector by WARC Data has noted that successful brands tend to allocate 13 per cent of their media budgets to OOH advertising.
February's Global Ad Trends report by WARC, which distils data from 96 countries and has detailed findings from 12 key ad markets including India, shows that the heaviest OOH spenders were government and non-profit campaigns, which committed an average of 26 per cent of total budgeted spend on OOH. In India too, outdoor media is expected to grow by 10 per cent in 2018, to reach a size of ₹3,395 crore, on the back of upcoming elections and government campaigns.
"The outdoor medium is expected to substantially gain from the Central and State government's publicity and election campaigns, because of the ensuing eight State Assembly Elections in 2018 and Lok Sabha Elections in 2019," said Balsara, adding the OOH advertising market has grown by 6 per cent in 2017 to reach a size of ₹3,085 crore. Its contribution to the advertising pie was 5.8 per cent.
With the Indian ad industry pegged to touch the ₹77,623-crore mark by 2020, and expected to grow at a very high rate over the next few years, Ashish Bhasin, Chairman and CEO South Asia, Dentsu Aegis Network, said growth would be driven by lower data spends, the smartphone revolution and the subsequent spends on digital advertising.
"In terms of proportion of ad spends on digital, e-commerce spends would be the highest followed by telecom, banking and financial institutions, and the media and entertainment sector. Backed by growth of the Indian e-commerce industry, the Internet economy is expected to double by 2020," he added.
Incidentally, digital OOH is transforming the face of outdoor advertising. Though a new media format, digital OOH is making rapid strides in the international market, though in India it is a different story.
The second is the focus on content. "Very often than not, OOH creatives are adaptations. They are not developed keeping the medium in mind. This brings down the overall effectiveness of the medium," he added.

The Face Pot: The distinctive pottery of the Susquehannock Indians
Filed under Archaeology Collections, Exhibits, Native Americans of Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania Icons, Pennsylvania Treasures
Tagged Anthropology, archaeology, Captain John Smith, Chesapeake Bay, Gereald Fenstermaker, Harrisburg, Susquehanna Valley, Susquehannock Indians
This Susquehannock Face Pot was most likely used during meal times and as container to store items such as needles, fish hooks, spoons and other materials.
The first chronicled contact between Europeans and the Susquehannock Indians occurred in 1607 when Captain John Smith encountered 60 Susquehannocks near the head of Chesapeake Bay. Captain Smith's account states that . . . "Those are the strangest people of all those countries, both in language and attire" . . . and that . . . "they inhabit upon the chiefe Spring of these foure branches of the Bayes head two days Journey higher than our barge could pass for rocks." His detailed, though somewhat exaggerated account, describes a people who clothed themselves in . . . "the skinnes of Beares and Woolves, some have Cassacks made of Beares heads and skinnes that a mans head goes through the skinnes neck" . . .That the Susquehannocks were a populous group in perpetual conflict with others is evident in Smith's writings . . . "They can make near 600 able men, and are palisaded in their Towns to defend them from the Massawomenkes, their mortal enemies." The major settlements of the Susquehannocks were centered in the lower Susquehanna Valley between Harrisburg and Washington Boro, Pennsylvania.
The Washington Boro village site (36LA8) was most likely the principal settlement of "Susquesahanough" on Smith's 1608 draft map as it is situated roughly two days journey above the Fall Line at Havre de Grace, Maryland. The hallmark pottery type of the Washington Boro Stage (1600-1630) is the distinctive, high-collared pottery with human faces. This week's Pennsylvania Treasure depicts one of these vessels from the collections of The State Museum of Pennsylvania. Pottery of this form and size were used by the Susquehannocks as common food vessels at meal time and as containers to store small personal items such as needles, fish hooks, spoons and other items made of antler, bone and wood.
This vessel, from the Gerald Fenstermaker collection, is on display in Pennsylvania Icons at The State Museum. Visitors may view additional Susquehannock vessels in the Hall of Anthropology & Archaeology, situated on the second floor of the museum.
Standing at an approximate height of 6 inches tall, this buff-colored clay vessel is tempered with crushed fresh-water mussel shells that the Susquehannock Indians harvested from a river. Cord markings embellish the body, adding grace to the bold panel of broad lines that, in turn, are stamped with a series of wide vertically spaced lines that encircle the collar. Cresting at two points on the rim of the vessel are stylized effigies depicting the characteristic human faces of Washington Boro Stage Susquehannock pottery. Above each of the faces is a pattern of deep notches that may represent a stylized version of headdress of the form known to have been used by the Susquehannocks at the Washington Boro settlement.
About Pennsylvania Icons:

Feminism and Tradition: Quiet Reflections on Ordination and Communion
Feminism and Tradition deals head-on with the questions and challenges which feminism presents to the traditional Orthodox Faith, in a way which is irenic, straightforward, and comprehensive. It examines at length the scriptural foundation for the Church's Faith, as well as its elaboration by the Fathers, and goes on to offer a model and rationale for continuing to accept this traditional Faith in our modern age. The book defies the entrenched polarized positions of former debates, and bids us take another look at these controversial questions.
The V. Rev. Lawrence R. Farley is the priest at St Herman of Alaska Church in Langley, B.C. He has authored the Orthodox Bible Study Companion series. His regular column, No Other Foundation, is found on the website of the Orthodox Church in America, and his podcast, Coffee Cup Commentaries, is available on Ancient Faith Radio.

Tafos was an island with seafaring traders, but unfortunately also with pirates. The Odyssey tells.
– son of wise Anchialus, and king of the oar-loving Tafians (Od.1-180).
– on my way to Temese for copper, and carrying a freight of shining iron (Od.1-184).
The swineherd foreman Eumaios purchased the slave Mesaulios on his own money from a buccaneer from Tafos (Od.14-449).
– who were allied with us (Od.16-426).
– He (Odysseus) is close by, still alive in the rich land of the Thesprotian (Od.17-526), and not so far from Ithaca, so obviously Tafos lies a little further away.
Tafos may be the island Tåsinge south of Fyn (Funen). It was an island up till today with peasants and seafaring traders.
The origin of the name Tåsinge is difficult to trace. There are three possibilities and none of them is completely convincing. We also do not know what the word Tafos means.
The Danish Census Book (Danish: Kong Valdemars Jordebog) from 1231 has Thosland and the Knýtlinga saga from 1260 has Torslundr. Because the Danish sources are lacking the r, the prefix can't be the genitive of the deity Thor. Possibly the prefix is originally an island name *Thõs, which later got a – land attached to it. *Thõs might have a suffix-s attached to the Old Danish noun *thõ, Old Norse *thanhõ which links to the Gothic thãhõ – clay.
Another option is a noun thõs of uncertain origin and meaning 'marsh, scrub' or similar, a word that is part of Dutch and Flemish place names.
A third option is that Thosland is composed of the root in the Danish verb tø (thaw) + land. It provides an extended meaning 'the land by *thõs, in other words the waters with ice that dry. In this case the Svendborg Sound.
In this case the Greek word Tafos links with English thaw, with Old English thawian and with Old Norse theyja.
If the island Tafos in the Odyssey is Tåsinge, then *Thos in Tåsinge is a non- composite name.

PQ2015 NO MAN'S LAND / SharedSpace POLITICS 2015
PERFORMANCE AND SPACE DESIGN
NO MAN's LAND / CROSSROADS, Zlata Ulice, Praga.
INSTALATION + IMPROVISATION + INSPIRATION
In relation to the theme of Politics, the Zlatá Street will become home to a No Man's Land — an open-air stage for open dialogue among people.
NO MAN's LAND aims to exist in the context of PQ2015 as a SharedSpace or in occupation, in the context of the live event, by a diversity of real or fictitious elements, displaced to a common time and space. A temporary arena dedicated to the juxtaposition of images, opinions, ideas, actions and reflection; a meeting place for the elements that make up the scene design. Fragments of visual and sensory elements that contain narratives and promote actions, transposing the existing territory to the imaginary, a Utopic place. A space for negotiation and continuous occupation during the event, where two graffiti artists – Galo de Souza, from Brazil and Michal Škapa, from the Czech Republic are invited to create a narrative space; occupying the CROSSROADS region in response to a challenge proposed in the dialogue and struggling with the reality of the city.
SPACE as POLITICS focuses on reuniting and representing multitude of voices, keeping open, listening and motivating the interrelationships. A place where a strong statement of political organisation is presented in a way that no one can remain indifferent. SPACE as a common territory for the artistic expression: the main axis to the theatricality and the performative practices, a meeting point of distinct languages, identities, point of views and conflicts. SPACE as the mediator of interrelationships: in which the local and the global references are presented, bringing distinct identities into to a confrontation between the spatial and temporal boundaries, tracing an imaginary and temporary Urbis.
Curators of the Countries and Regions Section were invited to work on a new geography for the PQ '15 by taking on the concept of Space as POLITICS: exploring the spatial features that lead to the rule of POLITICS: its capacity for interaction, divisibility, and configuration: to reflect its occupancy and (re)organisation, not only as a lay-out but as a political attitude, and how it will affect the other curators on the borders… Traces of territories in common shared or in contest, reinforcing the idea that space is not a static lifeless body but always on the move.

PRAGUE CROSSROADS is located in the region where there is a church of St. Ann, founded by St Wenceslas in 927 AD. Havel. Its concept was a local suggestion for all types of meetings, where lectures, debates, concerts, presentations, exhibitions, meditations and events can have a place in the spirit of respect for the multicultural diversity of the modern world. Its main objective is to respond to the increasingly urgent needs for creative dialogues between people of different beliefs, convictions and professions about the current state of our civilisation and the dangers that threaten it and as hopes for the future.

Private bus operator Saucinc and BYD have just closed a deal that will convert the entire fleet of transit buses in the port city of Guayaquil, Ecuador over to fully electric buses by March 2019.
Saucinc has been seeking to modernize their fleet with electric technology for several years now. In order to do so, the private bus operator announced the purchase of 20 new 12-meter, 80 passenger electric buses from Chinese automobile manufacturer BYD.
The deal is reportedly being financed by public bank CFN and covers the cost of the 20 electric buses and their complete charge system for a total of $7.7 million. By March 2019, Guayaquil, Ecuador will have a zero emissions fleet with features such as air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and increased comfort for the driver, promoting the modernization of public transport in the South American country.
The deal was confirmed after repeated test trials of the electric buses in Guayaquil between November 2017 and March 2018, with an average range of 250 km (about 155 miles) per day. It has been estimated that the fleet of electric buses will avoid the emissions of 12.8 tons of CO2 and consumption of 2.9 million gallons of diesel over a year's operation, saving the Ecuadorian government $8 million.
With the acquisition of BYD electric buses, Guayaquil will become a leader in electric mobility in Ecuador as they will posses the first fully electric bus fleet and fast charging station in the country.
With this recent announcement, BYD continues their electrification plans for the world. Just this past September, BYD delivered the first K11 electric bus to Indianapolis transportation provider IndyGo.
Currently, BYD has expanded to service more than 200 cities with a fleet of over 35,000 electric buses around the world.

Covid: Hong Kong's hospitals overwhelmed amid spike in cases
Hong Kong's healthcare system has been overwhelmed by a huge surge in Covid-19 cases, with infected patients being treated outside crowded hospitals. The government has admitted it is struggling to contain the fifth wave of infections, fuelled by Omicron. But it has ruled out a city-wide lockdown. A record 4,285 new cases were reported on Wednesday. Chinese President Xi Jinping urged the local leaders to take "all necessary measures", in a rare intervention.

I've got an editing dilemma. My editing teacher is a big fan of the word ever. As in biggest ever, longest ever, best ever.
I, on the other hand, argue that 'ever' in that context is redundant and unnecessary.
In my writing classes, profs advised against, uh, ever, using superlatives.
Ryan, I like that. Thanks!

Cinematic Releases: Two Times You (2018) - Reviewed
The second feature of Mexican writer-director Salomon Askenazi, Two Times You, a labyrinthine nonlinear existential psychodrama of sorts, is another one of those films which feels right at home with such strange bedfellows as David Lynch, Nicolas Winding Refn and Quentin Tarantino. While easy to draw comparisons to those three filmmakers when assessing this Spanish language thriller, one hardly cares while watching that Two Times You proudly wears recognizable influences upon its sleeves.
Surreal, dreamy and often deliberately incoherent, this recently acquired import, like David Robert Mitchell's own Under the Silver Lake will either entrance viewers with its beguiling mysteries or annoy with impenetrability. Whatever the case, the first thing you'll want to do when it's over is seek out and purchase the soundtrack album which would make the likes of Johnny Jewel or Cliff Martinez blush.
Opening on two cousins, Daniela (Melissa Barrera) and Tania (Anahi Davila), double-dating with their husbands at a social event involving plenty of booze, the relatives hatch an idea to swap wedding rings before going home with each other's respective husbands. When a drunken drag race home goes awry, leaving one of the swapped couples dead, the film takes on an increasingly jagged rhythm between past, present, premonitory fears of the future before gradually building towards an existential anomaly which leaves the audience with more homework in their laps than they prepared for. Not content to confront the mysteries of displaced couples falling in and out of love, Two Times You also serves up what-if scenarios throughout until neither we nor the characters are sure what plane of reality we are on anymore.
Either the work of a brilliant auteur or a student filmmaker eager to impress his contemporaries, whatever you make of Two Times You won't take away from the technical quality of the filmmaking, the strength of the performances or the original score's ability to lull you into a trance. Much like Combat Shock, one of the leading actors Daniel Adissi contributed original tracks to the film which will immediately remind viewers and listeners of Kavinsky's Nightcall opening Nicolas Winding Refn's Drive, replete with aerial helicopter shots of nighttime cityscapes. Whether the film succeeds artistically or not, the soundtrack to this thing soars and will likely get more attention than the film itself.
While not a masterpiece and debatable whether or not it emerges as a successful narrative, Two Times You is truly an interesting exercise in nouvelle vague inspired nonlinear filmmaking. Reportedly this film went through an extensive editing period with nearly twenty different cuts of the film before settling on the one released in theaters, and though the finished product is bound to leave more viewers scratching their heads than making sense of it, what's here will find a way to worm it's way into your psyche. I may not have liked the picture all that much, but I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since first seeing it.

LEAWOOD, KS (October 26, 2015) – Jeremy and Theresa Orsky have quickly grown their collision repair business with CARSTAR Auto Body Repair Experts. They opened their first shop, CARSTAR Coach & Collision in Cleveland, OH, in 2012. Their second location, CARSTAR Tim's Collision, in Twinsburg, OH, opened in late 2014. Now the Orskys have added a third shop, CARSTAR Brunswick, located at 1191 Pearl Road in Brunswick, OH.
What makes this latest addition interesting is the uncommon way in which the Orskys found out about it. On occasion, Jeremy Orsky will shop ads on Craigslist for shop equipment or potential business opportunities. When an ad for a full body shop popped up, it caught his interest.
CARSTAR Brunswick is an 11,000 square foot shop that sits on a two-acre fenced-in lot. It is a perfect complement to the Orsky's other two locations. While all three shops are fully capable of performing high-quality collision repair work, the Orskys are now better equipped to load level their work depending on the type of repair.
Their flagship location, CARSTAR Tim's, is a 25,000 square foot I-CAR Gold certified shop which also carries all of the OEM certifications. That will be their central location where specialty work, like aluminum repair, will be sent. They are also set up to handle mechanical work at that shop.
Orsky also said that his newest shop will soon join the other two with an I-CAR Gold certification. Not only does he employ I-CAR certified technicians, he is also an instructor.


A U.N. rights commission in South Sudan said Friday there was sufficient evidence to charge at least 41 senior officers and officials with war crimes and crimes against humanity.
South Sudan's four-year-old civil war has been characterized by extreme brutality and attacks on civilians.
The commission said it had forwarded a confidential list of suspects to the U.N.'s High Commissioner for Human Rights, Zeid Raad al-Hussein.
The U.N. commission said soldiers and officials loyal to both President Salva Kiir and rebel leader Riek Machar were both responsible for crimes.

Some power examining schemes for college students are listed near to the base. For something to become a excellent powerful essay matter, it should be an arguable problem. The initial part of planning to write an essay would be to read each of the content you are needed to learn about this issue.

Moreover, you may not be capable enough to do sufficient thinking in case you wait until the limitation to perform your composition. Arrange to have the essay ready a few days sooner compared to the date of entry. Creating skills additionally feature business.
Everybody cannot afford to truly have a true palm-tree within their yard.
This really is due to the fact that most teachers examine many documents and every sounds for example another. For the moment, nevertheless, novices are going to learn the fundamental composition structure. You'll surely have the capability to develop your writing here. That's why it's quite vital that you simply develop your own skills in writing as it's verified to be beneficial maybe not only for education – related purposes but for future function objectives also. Even if composing an composition based on personal experience, it really is good if you're able to backup your own views with details. No matter your goal, merely carry on composing. Another part of your article summarize targets your own major justifications.
A primary – course summarize is possibly the most critical measure in writing a superb composition. Later, the exact same will be right of essays theywill have to compose. Use this overall article construction to generate a comprehensive outline on your own essays. Doing study may enhance the caliber of your article. It truly is feasible to structure your composition in a number of standard ways. It's my hope that this can help you with your article. Don't earn a summation of the entire custom essay. Clearly, custom papers writing services aren't free. If you're n't, the Web along with the catalogue are both quite great areas to locate strong evidence for your own article.

Prince and the New Power Generation, Nov. 7, 1991\
The year was 1991. The month was November and the date was the 7th. We were still nine years away from Y2K and 12 years removed from The Artist formerly know as Prince's first successful top-40 hit single, "I Want To Be Your Lover".
Jimmy was being inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Magic was shocking the world with the announcement that he had contracted the AIDS virus.
The Reagan Library was being dedicated and some guy named Geraldo, was kissing and telling about his sexcapades with the Devine Bette Midler and Michael Jackson was about to be "Dangerous".
A father of three sons also left the world and a TV generation. Check out the podcast and explore what else was going on when Prince and the New Power Generation had the hit song: CREAM on Nov. 7. 1991

Will It Go 'Round In Circles, Billy Preston, July 7' 1973.
The summer was hot and sticky in Southern California and Billy Preston, "The original "fifth" Beatle" was topping the charts with "Will It Go Round In Circles! Disco was yet to be heard, Nixon had a few more months as President and you could be a calculator for $239 at Radio Shack. Most people still had antenna TV on the roof or rabbit ears if you didn't. If you did any significant typing and wanted to be state of the art you used an IBM Selectric Typewriter–And you made corrections with Liquid Paper (Invented by Mike Nesmith (of the Monkees) mother. Mike went on to have a big part in getting MTV started, but that is another trivia story…The PC or Mac were still waiting to be born

Sammy Davis Jr. and Muhammad Ali: Goofing Around
Before she becomes Wonder Woman a few years later, Wonder Woman–Lynda Carter was from Tempe, Arizona and Miss World USA. The Watergate Break-in had just happened and no one knew this would lead to impeachment of Nixon. Sears had a cartridge TV (Pre-VCR) and it cost $1600 and only recorded a few hours. The Staple Singers had the highest selling and probably the best dance gospel tune of all-time: I'll Take You There by the Staple Singers. Do you remember Marlee Matlin dancing to it in the movie: Children of a Lesser God?" June-'72, the '60s are definitely over and in a few years disco would be king.

Meatloaf In The Oven!
The Food Network is launched. "The Bridges of Madison County" was competing with Howard Stern's, "Private Parts", for the number 1 spot on the Best Seller's list.

March 9, 2015 Podcastmusic1
The O.J. Simpson verdict happened on this date. The United States was once again forced to look at its racial divide. CD ROM was soon to be overtaken by this new thing called a DVD. Denzel Washington was breaking out. E.R. was on top and Howard Stern was fired again in Chicago. While the racial divide played out in the O.J. trial and politics, it was the magic of the arts, music and entertainment that continued to show the multi-cultural excellence of the United States

Episode 4: Jessie's Girl, August 1, 1981. The PC was launched, the Empire was striking back and the first AIDS fundraiser was held.
Jessie's Girl was Number One on the pop charts. The world was changing faster than we knew it was at the time. MTV was born on that day. The last gasp of the analog world was upon us as the USA Today was being conceived and the first IBM PC was being launched. At the movies The Empire was striking back and Zorro announced he was a gay blade. AIDS was named and the first fundraiser we held. And the US Army was worried about pregnancies, strength, stamina and sole parenthood were core concerns about female recruits!"

Faith and Flower: Living Up to its Hype?
Faith and Flower is a leader of the pack when it comes to LA's 'most talked-about' dining spots. Hip, stylish and in the heart of Downtown, Faith and Flower knows its market and puts on a good show for those looking to post about the newest eatery they've checked off their list. A lavish dining area best described as 'chic vintage' and a menu that puts a fun play on American favorites capitalizes what's trending and makes for great conversation.
When it comes to the actual dining experience, however, Faith and Flower has an unfairly high bar set before it. Unfortunately, this bar wasn't met.
To give credit where credit is due, Faith and Flower has crafted a creative menu that uses standout ingredients. They've created an elegant atmosphere that fits in perfectly with Downtown LA's energetic, eclectic vibe and follow through with great service. When it comes to their brunch menu [haven't visited for dinner], some of their items are truly standout and fairly priced at that—Eggs benedict pizza layered with spinach, juicy bacon and rich hollandaise all over is worth coming back for. The salads are farm-fresh. The kimchi cornbread is clearly a house favorite, with just the right exotic touch to peak one's interest.
In the bigger picture, Faith and Flower falls into LA's morass of trendy spots that make a big deal out of average food. A $15 'malt' waffle, served without syrup and not enough berries and cream, offers nothing special other than it's ridiculous profit margin. The 'LA Breakfast' somehow embodies the city through a semi-filling portion of barely distinctive turkey chorizo 'hash' [never seen a hash without potatoes], eggs and a few tostada shells. Even their cookie board, which has some amazing blondies, lacks 'wow' in its other offerings.
The menu itself shies from consistency and identity. There's a few 'traditional' brunch items, but zero pastries. There's also a lot of non-traditional categories that don't necessarily go together. Faith and Flower has devoted an entire space to oysters and ceviche. They offer one pasta dish, a decent homemade cavatelli, but it's half the size it needs to be. They've got basic bloody Marys and mimosas, and the rest of the drink lineup is extremely stiff. There's a bit of breakfast and a bit of lunch, but very little that says brunch.
Faith and Flower has the creative wit to be one of LA's hit restaurants. I hope to see it live up to its hype moving forward.
Faith and Flower is located at 705 W 9th St, Los Angeles, CA 90015. Average out-the-door brunch price for split appetizer, entrée, split dessert and 1-2 drinks is ~$76/person. Call Faith and Flower at (213) 239-0642 or visit them online.


What are Miscellaneous antihyperlipidemic agents?
Miscellaneous antihyperlipidemic agents are used to treat hyperlipidemia. They help to decrease total cholesterol by lowering low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and triglycerides and raising high-density lipoproteins (HDL) cholesterol. Niacin (nicotinic acid) is a water-soluble B vitamin, which inhibits the synthesis of cholesterol and triglycerides, therefore lowers total cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and raises HDL cholesterol levels.


Santander never felt like home. Something there kept troubled thoughts unknown. In the air, the warm south wind had blown; for both those days, across the bay. In time, my skin forgave the sun. Still, my mind was never one. Santander, I came back for you. Just being there proved what I thought I knew. In the air, the southern wind still blew; for both those days, and fanned the flames. And again, our fate lies there in the wind, hard as it's always been. Could it be that you'll drift off peacefully? Or whirl back 'round taunting me. And if when, someday we do meet again, will you still know me?

Underinsured coverage or UIM, is different than Uninsured (UM) coverage. This type of coverage is insurance offered by your own insurance company for instances when the person at fault in the accident, the tortfeasor, does not have enough insurance coverage to pay you for all of your damages that you are entitled to. The Kentucky minimum requirement for liability insurance coverage is only $25,000.00. If you are seriously injured, this minimum amount is usually not sufficient to fully compensate you. Your agent must offer you the opportunity to purchase UIM coverage. You should check with your agent about UIM coverage on your policy.
Uninsured coverage, or UM, is something you as the owner/insured of a motor vehicle or truck purchase from your insurance company. If you are involved in an accident and the person at fault, or the "tortfeasor", does not have insurance coverage, then your insurance company pays you for your bodily injury. It does not apply to property damage. It does not apply if you were at fault in the accident. In Kentucky, unlike some other neighboring states, your insurance company must include UM in your liability policy. If you do not want UM coverage, you have to sign in writing a rejection form with your insurance company. If you change your mind and want UM coverage in the future, you must request it in writing from your insurance company. You should check with your agent if you are unsure of your coverages.
When does fault come into question?
Payment of additional damages to an injured party for injuries sustained in the accident is still based upon who was at fault. One of the most important reasons to contact this office immediately following an accident is to investigate the cause of the accident. That investigation would include, a site visit, interviews of witnesses, drivers, the investigating officer, any other individuals including EMS personnel, that would have information regarding the accident. A vehicle inspection is also important as soon as possible following the accident. If you delay in contacting an attorney to investigate the cause of the accident, evidence can be lost, which makes it difficult to prove who was at fault in the accident.
What are "No Fault" benefits?
The no fault insurance act took effect in 1975 in the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The no fault law only applies to bodily injuries, and does not affect property damage. Generally, each person that suffers economic loss from a bodily injury arising out of the maintenance or use of a motor vehicle is entitled to certain benefits, that include medical expense and loss of wages. You can reserve your no fault benefits for payment of loss of wages if you contact our office promptly to act on your behalf. The minimum limits for no fault benefits in Kentucky are $10,000.00. You may have added benefits that are in excess of the $10,000.00, that will pay additional medical expenses and loss of wages. You can purchase more of these added benefits from your insurance agent.
You should contact my office as soon as possible following a vehicular accident to receive advice concerning preserving all of your rights, and collection of any benefits that are available to you immediately.

A recent set of paintings by bill dedicated to the world around from the standpoint Expressionist primary color, set this solo show of painter manchego Ulpian Carrasco. Away from topics like adustez or Castilian austerity, this veteran of the brushes have long found the material color strength temperament suitable for energetic, passionate. Since always attracted to the world around Carrasco Ulpiano overlooking the landscape to transform it into pure painting, on with the fiery reds, oranges and yellows of his palette.
A expressionism relegated to being mere tradition for many, but this artist is perpetuated in constant renewal and always means new ways of looking, turn to the outside. The purity of unmixed colors, the brightness of your lights Fauves with additional contrast therefore, ambiguity sought in the merger between background and motive, make the work of this artist a real whirlwind, exhilarating the senses awaken.
City scenes, exotic still lifes, landscapes that extend into the rich amalgam flat multicolor juxtaposed figures on the painting itself labeled single gesture schematic windings, stains, glowing color fields. . . They are the singularly beautiful plastic repertoire of this tireless traveler, inspired by the succulent mana of their pigments wherever you are.
Ulpiano Carrasco studied Fine Arts in Salamanca. During the nineties traveling through the Middle East, England, Netherlands, Italy and France. His work is made known in Paris. New York, Singapore, Hong Kong, etc. .. Prestigious collections displayed in Spanish, as Gregorio Prieto Foundation, the Royal Academy of San Fernando, the Spanish Engraving Museum of Marbella, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Toledo.
In his works the artist assumes the two most important roads that followed the forefront since the early twentieth century (the passion for the color or the preponderance of the way), and raises a beautiful symbiosis intended to rework a classic genre as the landscape, although in this exhibition there are also examples of magnificent still lifes and cityscapes (confined to New York). Two genera, landscape and still life, which constituted an exceptional laboratory for the first avant-garde forms and post-neo-figuration will reprise eighties until today. The brushwork of Ulpiano Carrasco interprets these reasons from the color, through contrasts on, screeching harmonics, depending on what the artist is trying to express. The temperature of his paintings is intermittent, with high visual areas contrasting with other nuclei wisely turned off, but this back and forth is plastic energy combines into a coherent whole. Through the fleshiness of his brushwork, the direction of the stroke and color purity, we can guess how the intense natural light or neon signs has been gradually modulating specific geography of those spatial areas, natural or urban the artist provides.
The paint also tends to be expressed from the memory of the painter, is tidying experiences. In this memory are stored the landscapes, people, objects that are somehow imaginary referents, the raw material from which art is made. Ulpiano Carraso knows how much his work responds to these inductions prior personal experience. If I did, he would have invented other territories, other people, other deposits of reality to organize thematically his painting.
The most striking result of this attitude starts undoubtedly translate your way shapes and colors native spaces. Apart from the figures or human referents that can populate this painting is the landscape that becomes more urgent range. All these groves, forests, labrantíos, fallow arguments repeatedly elected as plastics, indeed belong to the rural orbit with Ulpiano Carrasco has lived since he decided to become a painter. The landscape of La Mancha, usually linked to the countryside Cuenca, occupies the prime development area of his work. And there, in the sensibilidadante this landscape where the artist found his reason for being, ie his way of painting. An aesthetic that ostensibly coincides with the aesthetics of nature Mancha.
Ulpiano Carrasco has had, of course, their teachers. Suddenly there walks powerful matter his countryman Benjamin Palencia; also walk around warps vigorous expressionism more thorough tempered by the Impressionist palette. The use of color as a reference source is due here to the same stimulus that communication from the distortion of reality to make it more operational artistically. Perhaps some of these oils remember then, to mention a possible reference, certain aesthetic Van Gogh, especially in regard to the coiled fillings. But most of these techniques appoggiatura, those sediments subtly learned languages, always excels Carrasco Ulpian personality, while creating an honest, sensitive, passionate, artistic transposition of nature.
