We recently needed to setup a hefty form with a lot of checkboxes for a client. In our case, the client needed the user to select every single checkbox within each group of checkboxes. The user could do this one-by-one, but with over 100 checkboxes spread across 12 sections, it would definitely take a while. To simplify, we needed to add a Check All option to the top of the list of each of the checkbox groups. That way the user could simply click and select everything in that group. However, Gravity Forms does not have this function built in, so we needed a solution. Adding Check All Option To Gravity Forms Checkbox Group The solution is a clean bit of jQuery we found on a forum thanks to AshWebStudio. It works by adding a custom CSS class to the checkbox group while editing the form and having the first option be your Check All option. Step One Drop this bit of jQuery before the closing body tag in the footer.php file in your WordPress theme. Bonus points for only calling it on the pages that need it. $(document).ready(function(){ // Check all in Gravity Forms $('.checkall li:first-child input').click(function() { this.checked); }); }); Step Two In WordPress when editing the form, add a custom CSS class of checkall under the Appearance tab of each checkbox group that needs it. Then be sure to have the first checkbox in the group say something like Check All or Select All. Once finished, update your form and test it out. If it is not working for you, first double check these 2 simple steps - then if you are still having trouble, try disabling all other plugins as there could be a scripting conflict you need to address. Step Three Add a CSS class to your stylesheet to the new Check All box to help it stand out. You would want to target .checkall li:first-child. Obviously this isn’t a requirement, but in our case we wanted to highlight the key option for each group. Bonus: Add Select Count Minimum and Maximum Limits Using Gravity Wiz Limit Checkboxes add-on, you can set a minimum and / or maximum select count requirement to the checkbox group. In our example, we had to make sure every single checkbox is selected - and the built in “required” option does not do the trick since that only looks for a minimum of 1 selected checkbox.

We need to recapture the notion of Biblical friendship. In this sermon on Philippians, Pastor Nate Harlan shows us that Timothy and Epaphroditus put Christ’s interests above their own by being genuinely concerned for the church, Christ’s primary interest.

Our Specialist Palliative Care Community team's main aim is to support patients throughout their illness so that they have the best possible quality of life, relief from symptoms, and flexible choices about where they are looked after. The team works with GPs, district nurses, hospital consultants, specialist hospital nurses and other health professionals to develop care programmes that meet the individual needs of each of our home-based patients. Each patient has their own designated specialist palliative care community nurse, to provide highly specialised knowledge, support and advice to them, their family and carers and the other health professionals caring for them. The nurses also give patients and their families emotional and psychological support. They don't provide intensive home nursing or help with daily physical care. But if a patient needs this level of nursing, they can help to organise it by contacting the district nurse and Sheffield’s city-wide intensive home nursing service. Our community nurses can also give home-based patients access to other services of ours, according to their needs.

Cultural appropriation occurs when members of a dominant culture adopt or ‘borrow’ aspects from a marginalised culture. Adoption can include forms of apparel and adornment, social behaviour, art, music and religion. However, adoption of these aspects can become decidedly offensive when done so without a sense of respect and humility. The majority of people who come from marginalised cultures do not feel uncomfortable or insulted when others wish to engage in aspects of their culture. In fact, it is quite the opposite – speaking from personal experience, they genuinely enjoy it! My dad is Indian and my mum is white: mixed Irish and Hungarian. When we attend Indian weddings my mum wears a sari and a bindi, as do I. She also participates in the pre-wedding custom of having mehndi intricately painted on her hands. Appreciating and partaking in a culture that is different to your own, under suitable conditions, can be a wonderful, valuable and comfortable experience for both the participant and the majority party. When adopting a cultural aspect with reverence and consent, participating in an aesthetic tradition is appropriate. My anecdote reflects that cultural appropriation tends not to be problematic in terms of what is being done, but rather how it is being done. When members of white society detach the native cultural, historical and/or religious significance from an aspect of a marginalised culture, the marginalised people become reduced to degrading and therefore damaging stereotypes. Exploiting cultural aspects of a historically and presently less privileged group in order to appear fashionable, or dare I say ‘sexy’, is an exercise in white privilege and forms a trajectory that can lead towards racist attitudes. In the name of fashion, a great deal of ‘borrowing’ from marginalised cultures has recently occurred in the mass media and consumer market. The theme of the 2015 Met Gala was ‘China’, yet Chinese designers were few and far between. More worryingly, the sexualisation of the traditional Chinese qipao, which can be seen on models Irina Shayk and Karolina Kurkova, propagates the stereotype that Chinese women are subservient, passive and willing to be scantily clad in order to satisfy the sexual desires of men. It reduces a sophisticated item of Chinese apparel to the Western perception that Chinese women are ‘exotic’ and can therefore be perceived as sexually desirable due to their otherness. In another highly questionable attempt to engage with Chinese culture, Lady Gaga donned a Kimono-style dress – an item of clothing that traditionally originates from Japan. Asian Culture is not interchangeable, and here, there is even a confusion of two countries that have been at war… not only once, but twice. The cheap and cheerful brand ‘Missguided’ certainly appears to be misguided in regards to cultural appropriation. The fashion line advertises a trend with a rather dubious title – that of ‘Multicultural Mayhem’. It is likely that the designers and advertisers believe that they are amalgamating and embracing a variety of cultures in a positive manner. It is likely that they do not wish to cause offense. However, incorporating aspects of marginalised cultures to create ‘fashionable’ clothing reduces such cultures to commodities and therefore strips them of their original cultural significance. You cannot and should not ‘borrow’ a person’s culture, race, or religion in the name of fashion or simply for ‘fun’. Mocking a person’s life, repurposing traditional dress for self-expression and fetishising aspects of a marginalised culture perpetuates negative stereotypes. It is categorically wrong. So please, if you are going to engage in an aspect of a different culture to your own, avoid appropriation and appreciate appropriately!

One of the joys of working on the University of Texas campus is just being around the constant, countless amazing things that go on every day on the Forty Acres. Over the weekend, I attended a dance performance that both surprised and challenged me — the Friday night premier of the Cancion del Cuerpo project from UT’s Department of Theatre and Dance. I didn’t know what to expect, since I’d never been to a dance performance before, but it didn’t take long for me to realize I was seeing something special. Part of what was so remarkable about Cancion del Cuerpo (“Song of the body”) was that it featured UT students dancing alonside professionals from Colombia’s Colegio del Cuerpo. Rough equivalents would be the UT men’s basketball team getting to train alongside and then play with the Dallas Mavericks, or music students getting to perform with the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra. That’s how big of a deal it was. “Having our students performing with the Colegio del Cuerpo company has gigantic and multilayered benefits for the Dance students,” College of Fine Arts dean Doug Dempster said, “beginning with the opportunity to dance with professional dancers over a sustained project, expanding into all the subtle influences and lessons that grow out of cross-cultural exchange.” All of the dances were original works by UT faculty, working in conjunction with guest choreographer and artistic director of El Colegio del Cuerpo Alvaro Restrepo. The actual performance, before a packed house at the B. Iden Payne Theater, represented the culmination of a six-month, transcontinental collaboration. The whole production got started when UT law professor Karen Engle stumbled onto a performance by El Colegio del Cuerpo while on sabbatical in Bogota in 2007. What you should know, first, about the dancers from El Colegio del Cuerpo is not only that they are lithe, muscular, elegant beings, all — they also come from underprivileged backgrounds. The school rescues many of the students from the dangerous streets of Cartagena, then houses, feeds, and trains them to be world-class performers. Or as UT professor and co-artistic director Lyn Wiltshire puts it, “They dance for their very survival.” After Engle saw them perform in Bogota and heard their story, she and the Rapoport Center for Human Rights and Justice invited Restrepo to visit Austin, and the idea for a joint performance first came up. In August 2009, Restrepo and a small cadre of elite dancers traveled from Cartegena to Austin for a two-week workshop with the UT faculty and students. In December, the UT contingent returned the visit. For UT students to get to work with the El Colegio dancers offered them chances to learn about artistic and cultural issues well beyond just dancing. “Cultural and educational diplomacy may be one of the most promising and effective forms of building international relations,” Dempster said. “The Cancion del Cuerpo collaboration is a near perfect example of how to do that well.” All of that aside, the performance itself was amazing. Granted, I am a novice, but the dances struck me as energetic, emotional, and honest. There’s no question that the months of practice and the international visits and the camaraderie that can only come from months of collaboration all showed through. And there was something deeply moving about the “song of the body” being performed by dancers who have known such hardship and could express it through art. More than anything else, I was proud to be a part of the University of Texas family that night. We talk a lot about what starts here changing the world. Friday’s performance was a great example.

If you're never heard of Takfiris you soon will for they're the Muslim equivalent of ninjas and they're about to really stir things up in Pakistan. Like the legendary ninja, the Takfiri is an assassin, but one religiously motivated to slaughter fellow Muslims they judge apostate for failing to embrace Islam strictly as revealed by Muhammed and his companions. Anyone deviating from the path is considered no longer Muslim and, hence, an infidel deserving of assassination. Asia Times Online warns that a Takfiri force is about to be unleashed in Pakistan: On the one side are US-backed President Pervez Musharraf and political parties such as Bhutto's Pakistan People's Party (now headed by her 19-year-old son Bilawal) and Nawaz Sharif's Pakistan Muslim League. Against them are al-Qaeda ideologues such as Egyptian scholar Sheikh Essa, who are determined to stamp their vision on the country and its neighbor, Afghanistan. Prior to 2003, the entire al-Qaeda camp in the North Waziristan and South Waziristan tribal areas of Pakistan was convinced that its battle should be fought in Afghanistan against the foreign troops there, and not in Pakistan against its Muslim army. That stance was changed by Sheikh Essa, who had taken up residence in the town of Mir Ali in North Waziristan, where his sermons raised armies of takfiris (those who consider all non-practicing Muslims to be infidels). He was convinced that unless Pakistan became the Taliban's (and al-Qaeda's) strategic depth, the war in Afghanistan could not be won. In a matter of a few years, his ideology has taken hold and all perceived American allies in Pakistan have become prime targets. Local adherents of the takfiri ideology, like Sadiq Noor and Abdul Khaliq, have grown strong and spread the word in North Waziristan. Former members of jihadi outfits such as Jaish-i-Mohammed, Laskhar-i-Toiba and Lashkar-i-Jhangvi have gathered in North Waziristan and declared Sheikh Essa their ideologue. This is the beginning of the new world of takfiriat, reborn in North Waziristan many decades after having first emerged in Egypt in the late 1960s. On the advice of Sheikh Essa, militants have tried several times to assassinate Musharraf, launched attacks on the Pakistani military, and then declared Bhutto a target. This nest of takfiris and their intrigues was on the radar of the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the day after Bhutto's killing Sheikh Essa was targeted by CIA Predator drones in his home in North Waziristan. According to Asia Times Online contacts, he survived, but was seriously wounded. Sheikh Essa had only recently recovered from a stroke which had left him bedridden. Someone has to smash this radical, fundamentalist threat. The West already has its hands full in Iraq and Afghanistan. Venturing into Pakistan could be a terrible debacle. Isn't it time the very nations next in line to be targetted by these extremists - countries like Saudi Arabia and Egypt - finally took some responsibility for defending Islam and moderate Muslim states from the ravages of these Islamist Jihadis? It's not as though these countries don't already feel threatened by the Wahabis, they do. The capricious Sauds have been playing both sides of this street for so long that they're vulnerable to the very monster they themselves empowered. It's not only Pakistan's survival that's at stake, it's their own.

The state religion of Saudi Arabia is Wahabism, so I don't expect them to do anything. They and their petro dollars are the main source of funding for groups like Al Queda and this alleged Muslim ninja bunch. The west has buggered up in Iraq and Afghanistan so much, they are actually generating more extremism than they are defeating. They have marginalized moderate states (Jordan, Lebanon and even Iran until two years ago) to the point where they cannot help. I say, pull out completely, cut off funding and let the chips fall where they may. Trade with the friendly, ignore the others. The only "someone" that needs to smash the fundamentalist threat are the people of the Muslim world themselves. The West's historic interference has actually caused many of the issue not solved them. We need to leave them the hell alone to solve their own problems. 1:16 PM, December 31, 2007 The Mound of Sound said... Unfortunately, Mike, I believe you're right. Gwynne Dyer makes the point that Muslim extremists have arisen out of popular discontent caused by Arab dictators (the guys we have supported) who've brutally suppressed democratic movements at every turn. He, too, thinks the answer is to let the ME sort out its own problems, a predictably bloody process that might take three or more generations to complete. While that may be the best course I suspect that control of ME oil distribution is so highly treasured by the US for its obvious strategic advantages that Washington won't back away lest that influence pass to China or the other BRIC states. 2:30 PM, December 31, 2007 Anonymous said... I am surprided that liblogs.ca did not pull this, I admire your courage, and thanks for the good post! This is the first time I saw a post at liblogs asking for some introspection on the part of muslims, not saying things were never posted before, I just never saw them before. 3:11 PM, December 31, 2007 The Mound of Sound said... Hi Babylon. I don't know that there's anything remotely courageous in this nor did I think for a minute that this post would be pulled by liblogs.ca. Perhaps it's me but I don't think there's anything written that could be seen as derogatory or racist. As Mike said earlier, the Muslim peoples have a lot of things they'll need to sort out on their own - socially, politically, economically and, of course, religiously. They have to work through the same things that our societies and cultures had to tackle, often violently and cruelly, in our own past. I just wish we in the West would let them get on with it. 3:28 PM, December 31, 2007 samijha said...

When the pandemic upended our global photography plans, photographer Dave Burk revisited some of SOM's most noteworthy 20th century works in his backyard. 07 Mar 2022 Share Topics Our People Dave Burk was quite familiar with SOM’s work before joining the firm in 2019 as our photographer. An architecture fan and Chicago native, Burk grew up with SOM towers in the backdrop to his daily life as a child before eventually taking an apprenticeship with the heralded photography firm Hedrich Blessing out of college. When business travel around the world came to halt at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Burk was able to refocus his camera on the firm’s older works in his own backyard — a project he looks back on as one of the most fulfilling assignments of his career. I’m based in Chicago, which has quite a few classic SOM buildings that are well cared for and culturally relevant to this day. Looking through our archives, I realized a lot of these buildings were photographed when they were under construction and when they were first occupied, but that was typically it. There have been editorial shots for articles about these buildings since then, but nothing commissioned by SOM. When the pandemic hit, we couldn’t get access to the buildings we had scheduled shoots for and we couldn’t travel anywhere. Our team had already been talking about the idea to update the photography for some of our legacy buildings, and it seemed like the perfect opportunity to shift our focus from the present into the past. We wanted to show these buildings from new perspectives, with new contextual components, using new technologies. So we decided I would shoot Hancock Tower (now 875 Michigan Ave.), Sears Tower (now Willis Tower), Brunswick Building (now Cook County Administration Building), DeWitt-Chestnut Apartments (now Plaza on DeWitt), and the Inland Steel Building. From left to right: The John Hancock Tower, Brunswick Building, and Inland Steel Building, as seen in the summer of 2020. Growing up here, I remember coming downtown, walking out of the subway stations, and seeing these canyons of buildings that became a part of the fantasy world I was creating for myself as a child. I’ve applied that part of my subconscious to my craft as an architectural photographer — it’s allowed me to see them in a focused and attentive frame of mind. I went to photography school out West, with the hopes of eventually traveling the world to take photographs like the ones I saw in National Geographic. I ended up taking an architecture photography course where we studied Ezra Stoller and Hedrich Blessing — no strangers to SOM’s buildings — and that’s when I realized it was the kind of photography where I could apply a creative part of myself while also understanding light and composition. It’s also how I learned that Hedrich Blessing was based in Chicago, so I went back home, put together a portfolio, and got hired there as an apprentice. I spent the next three years learning the craft, traveling the country, and expanding my knowledge of architecture and design. I then became a staff photographer and was able to apply all of those experiences to my work. That classic approach to architectural photography I learned from Hedrich Blessing is part of my DNA. I was there when they were still shooting with large-format film — the big cameras with the hood, the polaroids, 4×5 film — it was a true craft. You had no choice but to understand light and find the clearest and most powerful compositions of the design. That formal approach is still the backdrop from which I see architecture, but now I’m able to bring my own style through new technologies. A successful architectural photograph is sympathetic to the design while also embracing its surroundings. Having people in photographs adds scale, energy, and humanity. I want to portray the building as part of the world in which it was designed for, instead of isolating it as was so common in the past. The Brunswick Building (now known as the Cook County Administration Building). Dave Burk | SOM The DeWitt-Chestnut Apartments (now known as Plaza on DeWitt). Dave Burk | SOM Chicago is set up on a north-south-east-west grid that makes it perfect for photography because you can gauge the sun at every time of year and know exactly where it will be. There’s a consistency to the light in every season — where it’s rising, where it’s setting, how it applies to the street grid. When it’s time to photograph a project, my first approach is to scout it out and see how the light hits it at different points in the day. Once I get an understanding of the light, I look around for different vantage points. Building rooftops, parking garages, train platforms, and other elevated spaces all add new and interesting perspectives. As I move through the city at different times of year I catch the light hitting the buildings — and their materials — differently. You get these sightlines at different points where certain buildings stick out, where certain streets terminate on a building. When I serendipitously catch one of those special moments with a SOM building, I log it in my head and make a note of the best time to capture that in a photograph later. When you’re dealing with these iconic buildings, you have to respect them and approach it in a formal way that celebrates the architecture. Keep it simple. The building is sitting there, it’s beautiful, everyone already knows it; so don’t overthink it and do something crazy that’s going to be hot on social media. The simple shots are the most successful ones for this kind of architecture. The John Hancock Tower (now known as 875 North Michigan). Dave Burk | SOM Our approach was threefold: New perspectives, new technology, and new contexts. My time shooting the Hancock Tower best represents that. I rarely reference other photos of a project before I go shoot it. But with Hancock, it’s hard not to know the iconic black and whites from Esto and Hedrich Blessing, so it was fun to find those compositions from 50 years ago and shoot them in 2020. The city has changed so much around Hancock since it opened that it creates a fascinating juxtaposition with the older shots. And because of all that new development it was really hard to show the entire building from its antenna to the street, so we had to think of other ways to let the building shine without showing all of it at once. The Sears Tower (now known as the Willis Tower). Dave Burk | SOM With tall buildings, I always find it cool to get close to the top and just get a subsection of it and everything else behind it; I went to some of the newer buildings around Hancock to get new vantage points, focused on its revolutionary x-bracing, figured out where light changes the building’s appearance at different points in the day, and even used a drone. Hancock has been shot a million times by helicopter and captured by other peoples’ drones, but for SOM to contain a set of those from that perspective was new and really fun to pull off. And because it’s so close to Lake Michigan, I had a lot more freedom with the drone to explore the airspace in a way that I couldn’t with some of the other towers. I was able to use parks and running paths in order to compose vignettes of everyday life in Chicago with our tower soaring in the backdrop and making a really strong statement. Dave Burk, in action. Dave Burk | SOM Dave Burk | SOM When I work on a project at SOM I’m able to fully engage with a single subject. To do that with these classic Chicago buildings allowed me to become far more intimate with them than ever before. Because of the circumstances caused by the pandemic, I was able to dive deeper and see these buildings in a way that would have been hard with a full workload. It ended up being one of the most fulfilling photo assignments of my career.

Just look around. Day after day after day we’re flooded with depressing and discouraging news. From radio to TV to Internet it seems the flow of negativity has no end, in scope, status, or scale. From the rarefied heights of the chase for the White House, which seems to grow uglier and more contentious with every passing day, to the streets of our nation where extreme violence and once-unheard-of social indignities are no longer considered the exception but, instead, almost the norm. Par for the course in today’s world. Thanks in large part to the divisive nature of the 2016 election process, social media has become a cyber-minefield where one poorly-thought-thru remark, maybe a harsh phrase, or possibly just a “Like” of someone else’s comment is subject to getting you blown up and cursed out, perhaps quite graphically, by someone you’ve never met. Or worse yet, by someone you’ve known most of your life. Seems we’re all walking around with a chip on our shoulder these days. Even the world of sports has become politicized and is no longer simply the stage for competition, displays of athletic prowess and team unity, but, rather, a platform for the demonstration of one’s personal beliefs. “Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio? A nation turns it’s lonely eyes to you.” Then along comes Hurricane Matthew. I had a bad feeling about this storm for most of last week; just something in the pit of my stomach that didn’t feel right. But I kept telling myself, and others, “Naw…it’ll turn and go out to sea. Too late in the year to hit us.” But I just had a weird sense that it bore watching. Hugo taught me that. Hugo taught us all a lesson. Anyway, monitor it I did, first on TV and thru webcasts as it hit Haiti and cleared the Bahamas, then, as it approached the US mainland, thru Facebook friends like Bennettsville’s Jon Anderson, who lives near Orlando, as well as other acquaintances in Daytona and Jacksonville as Matthew slowly wind-whipped Florida and wobbled his way northward. By the time he was on our doorstep, I just knew that our goose in South Carolina was cooked, I just knew in my heart that somewhere along the SC coast, some unlucky city, town or community was going to take a direct hit. It broke my heart. And it scared me. So, like so many others, all preparations complete, I hunkered down at home and set about checking in with friends, folks, and family – both inland and along the coast – by phone, email, text, and social websites to establish what their plans were, just so I’d know, and to wish them the best. And to let them know I loved them. Hope for the best, you know, but plan for the worst. Always. But in hindsight, it seems my concerns about those along the coast may have been misdirected. I should have been focused a little closer to home as the Pee Dee took a major lick from ol’ Matt. I never envisioned what I was going to find when Matthew was finished with us and crept on northward. Even before the winds had completely diminished, a neighbor alerted my dad that a large pecan tree was down behind my house and we walked out to find it had fallen onto the rear of his shop/office/ man cave/boat shed, and discovered another was showing signs of possibly soon being felled. It was a sickening feeling. But after I was able to get out and see other areas, I was, to be quite frank, ashamed. Compared to the damage and loss incurred by others, we were extremely fortunate. Parts of Bennettsville looked as though it had been bombed. Huge oak trees were down everywhere I looked, many damaging homes or other structures, in addition to roofs that had been torn away and large sections of shingles that were blown off. I was stunned. In a way, I still am. Then the reality of the scope of the damage – and particularly the scale of the damage done to the power grid, in addition to the flooding — became more evident and it was staggering, mind blowing. But when compared to places like Dillon and Nichols and Fayetteville and Fair Bluff, we were spared. We in Marlboro County were blessed to have not suffered the loss of human life and, while many endured – and continue to tolerate — hardships, when the degree of damage is considered, it is remarkable that electrical service was restored and roadways were reopened as soon as they were. Many other areas will not even see flooding max out until the end of this week. There but by the Grace of God go us. The sad reality, however, is that the landscape of Marlboro County has been forever changed, at least for the balance of my lifetime, thanks to Matthew’s fury. Sunshine is now hitting the ground where those massive oaks, such as the one on the Courthouse Square that was felled, once proudly stood providing shade, some for well over a century, and those large pecan trees, some that I played around as a kid, and sometimes put a few coins in my pocket from their nuts, are now just big holes in the earth. But in our loss, we’ve gained. For while there were a few cases of some bad apples making ugly comments about what they felt was unnecessary delay in getting electrical service reestablished or roads or schools reopened, the truth is they don’t know what they are talking about. The personnel out there trying to accomplish those tasks are some of the most selfless and dedicated people you’ll ever meet. And from having worked around them I can tell you without a doubt that electrical linemen are some of the bravest and most tireless people you’ll ever walk among. They are a rare breed, indeed. But even they have to eat and sleep sometime…even if you have to MAKE them do it. And don’t forget, these folks had their own families to worry about, their own personal concerns. But they were just as concerned about me and you. But it goes far beyond those whose job it was to step up and try to get things patched back together. No, we had regular folks who took the opportunity of this hardship to show what it is to be human, to prove what it is to care for their fellow man. To use the struggles and strife as an opportunity to be the Good Samaritans that we are supposed to be. To turn troubles and trials and tribulations around and be our Brother’s Keeper. I’ve heard remarkable tales. Of businesses without power deciding to cook their food and give it away free of charge rather than have it spoil, or taking up collections and buying supplies to donate to the needy, of churches preparing meals for folks without power and the means to prepare a dinner, and of friends inviting friends over to share meals at their table, some even by romantic candlelight, by choice. Of containers of gas being delivered to shut-ins or individuals without transportation, or generators loaned out to those without power. Of equipment and manpower being offered to assist in debris clean up or road clearing. Of medicines being delivered to the sick and the elderly being kept check on, and entire families taken in until flood waters have receded. Black, white, yellow, or brown, if you needed something, somebody would help you get it. And if you happened to be green, well somebody would have gotten you to a doctor or a hospital. Extraordinarily caring behavior; the kind not soon forgotten. With all of the loss and sadness, I find myself feeling optimistic. I’m not her biggest fan, but Governor Nikki Haley and her team did a masterful job, as did our local Emergency Management crew, in staying ahead of the curve and on top of this storm as it played out. And our local elected officials also proved their mettle by being right there, boots on the ground, front and center, assisting in every way they could. I was beginning to think Rep. Pat Henegan had been cloned; she was everywhere. I’m proud of my state, my county, and my community. But mostly I’m proud of us. Our people. We may not have as much as a lot of other places with their fancy parks and ball fields and such, but we’ve got each other. And when the chips are down, that’s when we’re at our best.

Whoopi Goldberg and trustee Lee Woodruff ’82, P’13, H’07 share a laugh onstage in Cotterell Court on March 27. By: Mark Walden March 30, 2015 Share Whoopi Goldberg and trustee Lee Woodruff ’82, P’13, H’07 on stage in Cotterell Court on March 27. (Photo by Andrew Daddio) Last Friday, entertainer Whoopi Goldberg appeared before 2,500 Colgate community members in Cotterell Court. Her performance — a mix of comedy and grandmotherly advice — was a testament to the skills of a woman who has won countless awards for her work on screen, on stage, and in print. For an hour, she held her audience’s attention, first offering a stand-up routine, then engaging in a Q&A session with trustee Lee Woodruff ’82, P’13, H’07. Afterward, she met with a small group of students in the Hurwitz Admission Center to discuss her life and issues of campus climate. “The assumption was, if you came from the projects, you had no understanding of the rest of the world,” Goldberg told the students, gathered around her in the same space where they and their classmates had held protests during the fall semester. “My mother said, ‘Look, we don’t have any money, but we don’t need a lot of money. We can walk places, we can look at stuff, we can go to museums, we can go and do everything. There’s nothing you can’t do.’ So I just assumed that was true for everybody.” An advocate as well as a storyteller, Goldberg was blunt in addressing comments about issues of racism and ignorance. She acknowledged those who had participated in last semester’s demonstrations. “Until you all start screaming and saying ‘No more, we don’t like this,’ it’s just not going to stop,” she told students. “You got tired of it, and you said ‘no more.’ And you taught folks things that they didn’t know. It takes a voice to do that and it’s hard. Few people want to stand up, because you don’t want that attention, but if you don’t, no one will.” The theme was one she established early in the evening as she took the stage in Cotterell Court. Couched in the stand-up’s signature anecdotes of ’60s free love and personal hygiene, Goldberg’s message to undergraduates went to the heart of liberal arts education: knowledge of yourself and your world are crucial for a successful, fulfilling life in a democracy like America. “People would say to us, ‘Why are you listening to that music? Why are you dressed like that?’” she recalled. “Then we grew up and became those people, asking the same questions: Why are you wearing your pants like that? I don’t care if you wear your pants down here, as long as you know what’s going to affect you in the future. I want you to be present.” For Goldberg, being present means not allowing your humanity to be built on technology. It means being aware of what’s going on around you and willing to take a stand when you encounter injustice. It means knowing your own boundaries and being willing to state them boldly. “You have to be a complete person,” she told the crowd. “You have to know what you want, what you don’t want. You have to be able to say no. You have to not be afraid that the hip, cute, or beautiful people aren’t going to want you.” It was a message of personal responsibility that could resonate across the multiple generations that had come to campus for the sold-out performance.

Listed below are some warning signs that your vehicle steering needs to be fixed: Vibration- If you notice the steering wheel vibrating, it is most likely because the wheels are out of alignment or there is an issue with the power steering. Difficulty Turing the Steering Wheel- Your vehicles steering wheel should be firm but turn easily, if you are finding it difficult to turn the steering wheel is a sign that there is a problem with the power steering. Noises- If you notice noises like grinding or screeching when you turn the steering wheel, there is most likely a problem with the power steering belt and you will need to get your vehicle serviced. Steering is Loose- While the steering wheel should be easy to turn, it should not be loose or have too much play this is an indication that your vehicle has worn or damaged steering gear and should be serviced. Problems with Steering Fluid- Power steering fluid should be red, pink, or clear so if the fluid is another color or is foaming it is an indication that either water or air may have found its way into the system and it is not adequately lubricated.

Oily Shocks- When you inspect your shocks and find that they are greasy or oily, it is an indication that they have a leak and are not working correctly. It would be best if you had your vehicle checked out to make sure it does not require suspension repair. Nose Dips When Stopping- If you notice the nose of your car dipping or diving when you stop it is an indication that the shocks may be worn, and you need to take your vehicle to a professional to repair suspension or replace suspension.

Sgt J. G. R. Elbo was born in England in 1922, by Danish parents. He volunteered for the Royal Air Force during the war and was engaged in intelligence work. John Gregers Rosenstand Elbo was born on 7 May 1922 in Finsbury, Greater London, the son Max Johannes Melchins Elbo and Karen Foss Elbo (née Rosenstand).[1] His parents were Danish. He was educated at Mill Hill School, but the war interfered with his further education.[2] Elbo volunteered for the Royal Air Force during the Second World War and was chiefly engaged in intelligence work using his linguistic abilities.[3] In December 1942, he was included in a list of Danish ground crew in the Royal Air Force. At that point he served at Air Ministry Wireless Telegraphy, Dunstable, Bedfordshire, as Leading Aircraftman (1213104).[4] He was later promoted to Sergeant.[5] He is demobilized in 1946. In December 1946 he was appointed Assistant in Scandinavian Studies at the Scott Polar Research Institute, and in 1947, he became an undergraduate in modern languages at Trinity Hall. He continued to work part time for the Polar Institute, and specialized in study of northern Scandinavia, Svalbard and Greenland. In 1948, he spent the summer in Spitsbergen with a party from the Scottish Spitsbergen Syndicate. Having graduated in 1950, he decided to study for a research degree in Eskimo philology, but never finished his thesis. His heath deteriorated and despite treatment he died in 1954 at the age of 31.[6] A glacier on Spitsbergen was named after him in 1956; the Elbo glacier (Elbobreen).[7] Endnotes [1] Ancestry: England & Wales, Civil Registration Birth Index, 1916-2007.

This is Chantal & Kay here from Rose & Rosé Essentials. We want to share with you some ways to replace everyday items with ones that you can make yourself using essential oils and natural ingredients. It sounds super intimidating, but we’re here to share with you how simple it actually is (and cost efficient!) and how you can create a toxic free household and lifestyle for you and your family. The first item we want to share with you guys is homemade lip balms! Lip balms are one of those items that we always have a bunch of since we apply and reapply multiple times throughout the day. Like anything else that goes on our bodies, we want our lip balm to be natural and pure, free of any harmful chemicals, especially since it can potentially be ingested, as we are applying them to our lips. Not to mention we kiss our kids constantly throughout the day. And then our kids ask if THEY can put our lip balms on their own lips! Did you know that your skin is the largest organ in your body and whatever you put on it gets absorbed straight into your body? The best way to ensure that you are putting the safest product on you, is to make it yourself so you know exactly what it’s made from. Below are the simple steps to making homemade lip balm from your very own kitchen. Ingredients: 4 TBSP Safflower Oil 1 1/2 TBSP Beeswax 1 1/2 TBSP Shea Butter Squirt of Vitamin E oil (1/2 tsp Castor oil if you want it to be glossy/shiny) 20 drops of EO Directions: 1. Use a double boiler to melt all ingredients except for the essential oils. Just melt them, don’t bring them to a boil. Remove double boiler from heat and add your essential oils. 2. Quickly, use a dropper to pour the mixture into chapstick tubes. This recipe will make 15 chapsticks. Here are a few possible flavors and combinations: Lavender Peppermint Grapefruit Thieves Lavender/orange Peppermint/lavender Thieves/lavender Lip balms make a great gift and can easily be customized with your own personal labels or by changing the scent using a variety of essential oil combinations. As for it being more cost efficient to make your own products, we did the math and it cost us $4.16 to make 15 lip balms, that’s only .28 cents per lip balm. Go ahead and give this all natural recipe a try, your lips deserve it! Let us know what you’d like to see us make next in the comments below.

This was the first game I've recorded while playing online in tournament mode. Though it was just a test to see how it'd come out in terms of lag, FPS and such it became clear later that it would count as the final in the CNCSeries tournament. Despite a few mistakes, this game was very enjoyable and very hectic. As you can see in the video, I was placed at the bottom left, with jack at the diagonal opposite top right. I sent some dogs around the map and comfortably captured the tech buildings on my side of the map. Jack did the same, though I troubled him for a moment with a dog at the bottom right derrick. Both of us built a drone before tanks from our warfactories and succesfully droned a tank of eachother. I went for an outproducing / aggressive play style, as I rapidly placed a couple war factories one after the other. It didn't take too long before I clearly had more tanks than Jack. Hence, I decided to push and attack. Both of us had our tank forces in the middle, accompanied with 9 conscripts from waves of paradrops. Using my advantage of superior numbers I decided to attack and mananged to do that quite succesfully. However, I got a bit too confident and followed Jack's tanks to his war factory. There, where I met quite heavy resistance in the form of fodder, sentry guns, tanks and paradrops. Had I gone up the cliff instead of the middle right I would probably have ended this game alot sooner. Anyway, that didn't happen so I had to resort to my original tactic. After fending off my intial force, I decided to rush in on Jack once more. I took my newly produced tanks to the bottom right level where I took out Jack's miner. Also, I took 3 tanks and suicided them on his Construction Yard. Things weren't looking too bright for Jack now. But for a moment I thought I would lose as Jack's larger amount of tanks (I basically suicided mine into his buildings, setting me back in numbers quite a bit) because my money counter had hit 0. Hitting 0 is extremely annoying when you're the defender, because you will need sentry guns and fodder to keep your opponent from killing you. Luckily I managed to hold off Jack with some fast clicking and good tank control. A paradrop at the bottom right was taking out several of Jack's buildings in the meantime. Jack was now completely crippled, with only one war factory to my 4 and no construction yard left to build a new one. After exchanging some words, he resigned.

Deborah Lambie is a stereotype-smasher. She’s a medical student here at Otago, a beauty queen, and an award-winning speaker. Josie Adams sat down to talk to her about the jet-setting life of a pageant pro: talents, inner beauty, and demilitarised zones. Why did you enter Miss New Zealand? I just thought it would be really fun. Something new and challenging. I really enjoyed Miss Otago, so I thought, “why not?” You had to send in photos of yourself, and I already had photos because I’m with Aliana [of the Ali McD modelling agency]. Why not send them in? Are you still modelling? A little bit! Last year I did all pageants, so I’m not sure whether I’ll do different pageants now, or … I’m not sure what I’m going to do now. I’d definitely like to keep modelling; it’s so much fun, just in a different way to pageants. How is it different? Modelling is about showcasing a designer’s work, whereas pageants are more about your personality and how you relate to people. It’s just a different job, really! Modelling’s about the clothes and being a coat hanger, but this is about letting your personality shine. That’s really interesting, because I guess a lot of people view pageants as being old or overly traditional. That’s cool that it could be more empowering than modelling. It can be. I found for me it really helped my confidence. Modelling did a little bit, but then this has a lot. It’s such a cool thing to represent your country and go overseas, so that’s been a really big boost for me. It was something I never thought I could do. Where did you go? The top 20 finalists from Miss New Zealand went to Thailand for two weeks, and that was awesome. We got to watch elephant polo, ride elephants, ride horses on the beach … we got to stay at the most amazing hotels, the nicest in Bangkok. We had meals out, did a really cool photo shoot on the beach and went swimming. For Miss World University in South Korea we stayed in Seoul; I wasn’t prepared for how cold it was! It was something like negative fifteen degrees! I’d got back from a trip to China and it was cold there, but nothing like Korea. Some girls wore pantyhose and open-toe shoes, and sometimes even bare legs, I don’t know how they survived! We went ice-fishing and four-wheeling on the frozen lakes. We also stayed in Hwacheon, which is the closest town to the border between North and South Korea. We went to the demilitarised zone, which was crazy, and actually really sad. I knew a little bit about the situation, but I didn’t realise how bad it was. Each girl got buddied with a soldier: all men in Korea are conscripted from the age of 18 for a year and a half, so we got to talk to them about it, and how they felt about the war. What was the general sense you got? That they really don’t want to be at war with North Korea, and that they want a peaceful resolution. There are obviously lots of barriers to that happening. I didn’t realise there were so many world competitions. Neither! It’s a whole industry! Even in New Zealand – and I’m still learning about all this, too – there’s Miss Universe New Zealand, Miss University New Zealand, Miss World New Zealand … So Miss World and Miss Universe are different? In Miss World you have to have a talent … Actually, at Miss University you could have a talent as well! What was yours? In Miss World University the talent section is just for fun, and doesn’t count toward your overall score. I decided not to do one – I thought it was better to sit it out than to do something average! What could I do? Is anyone sick in the audience? There were 40 contestants, and maybe 15 didn’t do the talent section. What kind of talents did they have? Mostly dancing. Dancing’s good if you’re a dancer, you know? If you’re not a dancer … not so good. One girl sung and she actually won the talent competition. [whispers] She was terrible. She was such a nice girl, but even she was really surprised when she won! Maybe the judges thought it was traditional. What’s the weirdest talent you saw? Three girls did belly dancing, which was really cool. Miss Zimbabwe did an acting skit! She’s a comedian, so her’s was hilarious! It was cool, and it stood out. Miss Canada did martial arts! Which was your favourite of all the different pageants? Probably Miss University, because I didn’t have any expectations. I was so happy to even be there. I wasn’t worried if I won or not, and then I did end up winning the award for best speaker, which was really cool. That’s the nicest way to be: if you’re super stoked just to be there and then you end up doing well, then it’s such a bonus. Lots of the girls were really competitive, but if there’s only one girl who can win, there is a good chance you will end up disappointed. After the final lots of girls were really gutted, which I thought was a shame. I thought, just chill, because you’re awesome. You got here. What was your speech on? We all had to do three three-minute speeches: one on ourselves, for the judges; then there was an international forum on the environment; and then another one on peace. They collate your scores from all of them. Were you worried about your accent? I should have been! You always think you don’t have an accent, but I definitely do! But English is my first language, and I spoke slowly, so I think the judges didn’t have too much of a hard job understanding me. Some of the girls whose English wasn’t very good were at a bit of a disadvantage. Do you think it’s unfair that it was in English? It would have been better if there were translators for the girls who didn’t speak English. It shouldn’t be about what language you speak. Nevertheless, the girl who won was from Mexico and could speak virtually zero English; it obviously didn’t matter too much. 1st was Mexico, 2nd was Zimbabwe, and 3rd was Brazil. What would your number one tip be for anyone entering Miss Otago? Have fun, be yourself and don’t worry about losing too much weight! Your natural body size is what you look best at. That’s what I really noticed when I was over there [in South Korea]. There were girls that were so much skinnier than me; but being that skinny wouldn’t look good on me. There were girls that were much curvier, and that wouldn’t look good on me either. So yeah, just be happy with your own body! That’s such good advice to hear in a beauty competition! I genuinely think it’s true! It’s not always easy to remember when you have to wear your bikini in front of lots of people, but I really think that it’s true. If you’re enjoying yourself and having a good time, then that’s when you’ll look the best. Also, these are subjective competitions. Remember that it’s hard for the judges – in my opinion there’s no such thing as a best person, but they have to choose someone. You’ve experienced so much and had so much fun, and never even won anything. I haven’t! I was 2nd runner up in Miss Otago, 2nd runner up in Miss New Zealand and … I guess I did win Miss University New Zealand. That was chosen from my CV and photos so it was slightly different. What are your final thoughts on all this? I feel so lucky to have had all these opportunities! It’s so easy to do the dumb girl thing: “Oh, it was so awesome!” I’ve tried to be honest as well, but it was awesome!

For a company obsessed with being “industry’s first” or “world’s first”, Samsung-branded QD-OLED TV and monitor were a no-show at the recently concluded CES 2022. Instead, Samsung was happy to give the spotlight to Sony for its A95K QD-OLED TV and Alienware for the unveiling of its 34-inch QD-OLED Gaming Monitor. But as it turns out, Samsung had a QD-OLED monitor of its own at the CES — they just didn’t announce it. The Samsung Odyssey G8 34” Gaming Monitor (G8QNB) finds a mention on the CES’ Innovation Awards page (via TFTCentral) as well as on Samsung’s blog post touting wins for its new monitor lineup. However, when it comes to the Odyssey G8’s official acknowledgment, specifications, and other information? Nothing. Samsung’s major monitor announcements came a couple of days prior to the CES with the 32-inch Odyssey Neo G8, new Smart Monitor M8, and a high-resolution UHD Monitor S8. Samsung also unveiled the rotating Odyssey Ark during the keynote. Even The Verge’s nice roundup of monitors at CES fails to mention the Odyssey G8 but Alienware’s offering earns a spot. So what’s the reason for Samsung to not formally announce the monitor and focus on the Mini LED-toting Odyssey Neo G8 instead? We don’t know. But, thanks to the listing, we know a few things about Samsung’s next-gen gaming monitor. It is one of the slimmest gaming monitors and with a thickness of just 5.9mm, the curved 34-inch Odyssey G8 has a 1800R curvature, QD-OLED tech, a refresh rate of 175Hz, and 0.1ms response time.

Law enforcement officers cannot stop, detain, search or remove anyone based solely on your political beliefs, ethnicity, gender, national origin, race or religion. At the border and at all airports, though, law enforcement has the right to search any and all bags, and ask questions about your travel itinerary and citizenship. Lawful permanent citizens and non-U.S. citizens may be questioned about their immigration status, although if you have a valid passport and are a U.S. citizen, you do not have to answer those questions. Failing to answer those questions could result in a longer delay. If you have a locked cellphone or a password on your laptop, an officer may ask for you to unlock the device. While U.S. citizens cannot be denied entry for refusing to provide a password, you could be delayed or questioned at length. An officer’s authority to copy or search files in an electronic device without having reasonable suspicion of a crime is an issue that is currently contested. If your bags have passed through the metal detectors and a security officer sees that there is no weapon inside, the officer can search your bags at greater length. However, a screener is not allowed to choose which bags he or she will search based on your race, ethnicity, religion, gender, national origin or political beliefs. At Ozment Law, PLC, we understand that you may feel your civil rights have been violated at some airports or other points of entry into the U.S. We will work diligently to represent you and ensure your rights when entering this country are not violated.

Developer Compile Heart for me has become a Nicolas Cage of video game developers. The creators of top notch JRPG games like the Hyperdimension Neptuna series, also release what feel like contracted filler games that are vanilla attempts at JRPG games that struggle to run at a steady frame rate. For every Fairy Fencer F they release, there is an Arc of Alchemist to follow along with it in between the major series releases. Unfortunately Arc of Alchemist is more of a Left Behind and less of a Raising Arizona if we're using Nic Cage examples. Arc of Alchemist follows team commander Quinn and her already-assembled team of 7 explorers who are trying to find the "Great Power" of legend that will bring the world back from the brink of being a desert wasteland. It's not a very original storyline as the Atelier Dusk series is based off this exact thing from earlier in the decade. Quinn wields a mythical weapon called a Lunagear that is the key to finding the "Great Power" by collecting its 4 gems. The other characters in your party are vanilla stereotypes that you only learn about through flashbacks when returning to your base. Even then the stories they tell are silly and out of place compared to the dark, tense tone that Quinn takes. The lone bright spot of your team, at least for the Switch version, is that you can take control of all of them in gameplay instead of just using Quinn. Dynasty Warriors Meets AOL Dial-Up You have two main areas in this game, the desert map and your base. In the desert you can explore, battle, and unlock new areas by completing what I would loosely call puzzles. Your base is where you can level your characters, change your team, purchase upgrades, and upgrade the camps on your map. Upgrading your camps will unlock new abilities you can get when returning, like health regeneration and restocking. For the first few times out you'll just be looking to trigger "events" on the map that will advance the storyline or provide you materials to sell so you can use the money to level your characters and upgrade weapons. Combat in the game is similar to a Dynasty Warriors game as opposed to the usual JRPG turn-based action. Each character will have two attacks with A and Y that you can spam on an enemy. Quinn can use the Lunagear with ZL that will fire a weapon, create boxes to reach other areas, and other abilities that the gems provide. The biggest issue I had with this game is the poor frame rate and freezing during battles. Trying to roll out of the way or position your character for an attack is almost impossible to control at times as the frame rate will drop and you won't know where you are or your enemies. Several times I died from freezing with just under half health, only to see my character had been surrounded or an area effect attack had hit without the ground warning appearing. Being able to control the other characters to see how their attacks or weapons work does provide an enjoyable game play if you can get past the performance. Just out of Focus Arc of Alchemist has cute chibi characters that are decently designed. Keeping them and the background especially in focus is an issue. The camera seems to not know what to focus on during exploration or battle and will blur different areas. Along with a frame rate that is probably around 20fps, the graphics gave me a headache trying to get my eyes to adjust. Almost all of the game is in a desert map that provides no real variety or the color that most JRPG styles are known for. The audio is basic and you won't really even notice it. Wrap Up This is a disappointment from a good developer that will just flood the market with another mediocre JRPG when the Switch already has numerous good JRPGs to play. The good news for Switch owners is that I've looked at PS4 videos of this game, and the performance issue isn't only on the Switch. With a price tag of $39.99 it also is very overpriced considering the storyline only takes about 10 hours to play. If you really want to play this game, I'd wait for a good sale. Even then I would recommend the Atelier Dusk games instead.

An Infringement of the Exclusive Right of US Kraft General Foods Inc. to Use the Registered Trademark "Tang" - China Patent Agent (H.K.) Ltd. An Infringement of the Exclusive Right of US Kraft General Foods Inc. to Use the Registered Trademark "Tang" Facts of the Case Early 1990, CAIC discovered that an entity dealt in a solid orange drink bearing the word " "(Guozhen, a Chinese word similar in pronuciation to " ", the Chinese word standing for the trademark "Tang") and it is similar to the package of the "Tang" (" ") trademark registered for the same class of goods by the US General Foods Inc. (later renamed the Kraft General Foods Inc.). If the use were unauthorized, it would be an infringement of the trademark. To act carefully, CAIC wrote to the State Trademark Office for instruction as to whether the two marks were similar. On 26 July 1990, the State Trademark Office replied in its No(90)B113 Document that " "and " " were used for the same goods, identical in pronunciation, similar in meaning; hence were similar trademarks. Afterwards, CAIC began to handle the matter in respect of the involved dealer according to the spirit of the document issued by the State Trademark Office. During the investigation, the manufacturer of " " products, the Xinhua Foodstuff Factory in Anbumeixi Chaozhou City, Guangzhou Province (XFF) pleaded that its package of " " was protected under the Chinese Patent Law, and prsented it the Gazette of Patents for the design "Tang" and the certificate of patent granted for the same design. It was found out that XFF applied to the Chinese Patent Office for patent for the design of " " used on the package of the solid drink container for the goods on 27 May 1988, and it was granted patent right for design on 31 May 1989. Article 59 of the Chinese Patent Law provides that "the extent of protection of the patent right for design shall be determined by the product incorporating the patented design as shown in the drawings or photographs." The photograph of the Patent Gazette contains the word " " and it is granted patent right a month earlier than the " " (or "Tang") trademark. Since it was not sure whether the contents of the patent right had constituted a trademark infringement, CAIC wrote on 13 June 1991 to the Trademark Office for further instruction on how to handle the matter. The Trademark Office conducted a special study on the matter and made a special visit to the Chinese Patent Office. According to the Legal Affairs Department of the Patent Office, what the patent right for design protects is the outer appearance of a product, including the shape of its package, its used colour, pattern, calligraphy of words, arrangement and combination of words and representations and the products the patent right is used for, etc.. As for the word(s) in a design, what is protected is the form, not the meaning. Where the word therein infringes another person's exclusive right to use its trademark, the corresponding liability for trademark infringement should be imposed. This opinion is in keeping with that of the Trademark Office. The Trademark Office replied to CAIC that the "Tang" or " " trademark was registered with the Trademark Office by the US General Foods Inc. on 20 June 1989, and the Trademark registrant enjoys the exclusive right to use the trademark according to law. XFF's unauthorized use of the packaging decoration " " similar to the registered " " trademark for an instant drink is an infringement upon the trademark under Article 38(3) of the Trademark Law and Rule 41(2) of its Implementing Regulations, and it should be investigated and handled as the law provides. Accordingly, CAIC imposed administration adjudication on the dealer infringing the exclusive right to use the " " trademark. Additionally, upon its discovery that the enterprise in Guangdong Province was granted patent right for the design of " ", the US registrant of " " trademark filed an application for invalidation thereof with the Chinese Patent Office, requesting for invalidation of the patent for design according to law. Analysis This is a typical case where trademark right and patent right are in conflict. Theoretically, a trademark and patent should fall into two separate domains of rights. According to the related provisions of the Trademark Law, a trademark is a sign consisting of a word or device or their combination and used to distinguish origins of goods. It is mainly used on the package of goods, with its primary function of distinction. The term of protection for a trademark is ten years, and its registrant may unlimitedly extent it by constant renewal thereof. According to the related provisions of the Patent Law, patent rights include those of invention, utility model and design. A patent is a new technology designed for industrial production, for beautification or improvement of the shape, function, and use of industrial products, or for lowering production costs. Patents for invention and utility model protect patented processes and products manufactured therewith, while patents for design protect the shape, device and colour of products, or new design made out of their combination for the purpose of decoration and suitable for industrial products. According to the provisions of the Patent Law, the term of protection of a patent for invention is 20 years, and that for a utility model or design is 10 years. The term of protection starts from the date of application and is not renewable. These provisions indicate that trademark and patent have their own scope of right, and should be in parallel development in their respective domain. In practice, both a trademark and design are used on the package of a goods. When a design in its two-dimensional form does not contain anything prohibited from registration under the trademark law, say a generic name or device of goods, the main function, use, raw material of the goods, etc., it may be registered as a trademark upon verification. That is, in certain conditions, a design may become a registered trademark. To pass off as another person's trademark, a trademark infringer mainly imitates the outer appearance of the goods for a goods without a salient sign of trademark of its own. If a trademark registrant enlarges and uses the trademark, so that it becomes an integral part of the outer appearance of its goods, the infringing act of an infringer includes imitation of the trademark and design of a goods. Hence, when the trademark right and design patent right of the same goods belong to different rightholders, the two rights would overlap. The conflict of the two in this case is a concrete example of such overlap. However, if the provisions of the related laws are closely followed, this conflict can be resolved. According to Article 27 of the Trademark Law and Rule 25 of its Implementing Regulations, a trademark registered by infringing another person's prior right is one registered by an improper means, and the Trademark Office and its Trademark Review and Adjudication Board may revoke the registration according to law. The patent right for design is such a prior right. According to the related provisions of the Patent Law, the Patent Office does not substantively examine the patent right for design. As long as it complies with the provisions of the patent law relating to patent application, it is announced in the Gazette. In this connection, Article 23 of the Patent Law also provides that any design for which patent right may be granted must not be identical with or similar to any design which, before the filing date, has been publicly disclosed in publication in the country or abroad or has been publicly used in the country; Articles 41 and 48 of the same Law provide that where grant of patent right is announced by the Patent Office, any entity or individual considers that the grant of the said patent right is not in conformity with the relevant provisions of the Law, it or he may request the Patent Office to revoke or the Patent Reexamination Board to invalidate the patent right. In this case, the time to grant patent right for design to the " " solid drink package is 31 May 1989, and the time for "Tang" to be granted its exclusive right to use the trademark is 20 June 1989. The grant of the design patent right precedes the grant of the exclusive trademark right. However, the package of "Tang" trademark to which the design of " "was similar has been publicly used by the US General Foods Inc., in the US and other countries, and the US trademark registrant begins to use it in China much earlier than the application for patent for the " " design. According to Articles 23 and 48 of Chinese Patent Law, the patent right should be invalidated by the Patent Reexamination Board at the request of the US trademark rightholder. Likewise, the contents of the patent right for design in " " does not contain the meaning of the word " ", and the similarity of the word " " to the registered trademark " " constitutes a trademark infringement, so, liability therefor should be imposed. In the end, such act of unfair competition to oppose the trademark right with the patent right is thus stopped by the Administration for Industry and Commerce. This case shows that in its efforts to protect exclusive trademark right, the administrative authority for industry and commerce should, on the one land, guide trademark users not to carry on unfair competition by applying for registration of what has been granted patent for design as their trademark, and, on the other, prohibit acts of unfair competition by utilizing design patent right without substantive examination to avoid the liability for trademark infringement. When an infringer commits its unlawful act relating to a trademark by deliberately taking the patent right as its excuse, it should be firmly imposed penalty according to the trademark law.

How can we train in this? We were a bit caught of guard when the first snow hit us already early in November. We got almost a feet of snow in a couple of hours covering Stockholm in a beautiful but less practical layer of snow. It took a while before all snow was cleared out from the pit. A week later, everything was back to normal.

Slasher Studios recently had the chance to chat with director Brandon Tobatto about his upcoming slasher flick “Loon.” The film follows a brother and sister on their journey to uncover the mystery of an old abandoned carnival attraction and the maniac that supposedly thrives within. Sounds like lots of fun indeed and looks like Brandon has a great slasher on his hands. How did you become interested in the horror genre and what made you decide to become a horror filmmaker? I became interested in the genre simply by exposure to it at a very young age. When I was around 3 or 4, I began watching horror films and, in not time, was hooked. This became an obsession that would run the course of my entire life and continues today. Then one day being a voyeur of the horror genre was no longer enough. I had too many ideas and too many characters that needed to be brought into existence. I guess you could say it just rose out of an artistic need. And here we are. Tell us a little bit about Loon… Loon is, in a nutshell, tells the story of a brother and sister who, along with their friends, journey to explore the decades-old ruins of an abandoned carnival haunt and uncover the mystery of the supposed masked maniac that lurks within. Little do they know the mystery soon turns to reality in a very disturbing and violent way. Making a slasher film today is difficult and many believe the genre is dead. What are your thoughts on the state of slasher films today? How does Loon stand out from the norm? The state of slasher films themselves does seem to be a bit bleak at the moment. I mean, we have horror films and thrillers and what not, but slashers? I don’t know what happened, but we don’t really have any current mainstream slasher icons wreaking havoc in the genre nowadays. Sure we’ve had a few remakes here and there, but nothing has kick started the slasher franchises of old. The new Texas Chainsaw didn’t meet expectations and sort of crippled the timeline. Scream 4, depressingly, didn’t pave the way for future sequels or make any kind of difference in the genre. It’s sad. Instead we have found footage films and cheap pop-out-and-scare-you movies; throwaway films. However, I can say that there is ONE series that stands out from this boring absence of real horror, and its name is HATCHET. The Hatchet franchise, albeit underground and straight-to-DVD, is a terrific return to the slasher days of old and brings us a completely original killer to go along with it. It’s also perfectly laced with nods to previous 80’s horror films. I love it and I can’t wait to see part 3. But as far as ‘LOON’ is concerned, I think the horror audience can expect a return to the slasher genre, but with the solidity of a fluid story that feeds off of little factors throughout the film and then back into itself. This is not a cut and dry, black and white series of events where a girl gets killed and then a guy gets killed and so on and so forth. No. This is a very deep and expansive story that happens to have, in my opinion, one of the most violent and creepy killers ever to grace the genre. I can’t wait to show it to an audience. Any homages we can expect to other classic slashers? In my mind, subliminally, I’m sure there’s many traits in this film that echo to horror pics of the past but I can’t think of anything we’ll be adding that directly throws back to anything. When we were in the early development stages I thought about adding this and that but it very quickly became clear that I needed to develop something completely original, both story and character wise, and then, if nods happened, they happened. So if there IS anything in this film that COULD be considered an homage, it most likely wasn’t intentional. I felt horror needed a clean plate and hopefully this one dishes it up on a nice, new platter. You have a wonderfully creepy promo poster for the film. Who created it and what went into the concept of the artwork? I actually created the poster myself. I knew I needed an early promotional teaser poster to help spread the word on the film so I thought what a better way than a big in-your-face image of the mask itself. Add some creepy lettering to get the message across and some strange texture and boom- you got yourself a pretty nifty, pretty terrifying promo poster. Photoshop is a great tool for filmmakers and practically anybody working in the art field. With the carnival setting and oh so many ways to kill, what can slasher fans hope to expect from deaths in the film? Practical vs. CGI? The deaths in this film will NOT be the main focus, unlike most slashers. Instead, the focus will be on the characters themselves and the story, with the creepy undertones of the setting fueling the gloom of the film. I want the deaths to accent the story, not compose it. However, on the other hand, that’s not to say there isn’t a lot of death in this film. No. Quite a few people will meet their end by the end of this movie. And not a good end at that. When dealing with the kills in LOON, I wanted them to feel very violent, very painful, and I wanted the death scenes to carry a lot of weight. These are characters that, hopefully, the audience has come to know and care about. And for these characters, their realities have been forcibly destroyed by this maniac. I don’t want the deaths to be funny or celebrated. This is not a good situation. This killer is not a hero or a role model. These characters had lives and, for simply stepping into the ‘wrong part of town’, so to speak, had their lives stamped out. I want the audience to feel that loss, to feel the life slipping away and to feel the anger of the killer as he takes that life without hesitation. Don’t expect a lot of gore and gross-out. Expect real, painful, and disturbingly violent depictions of death. What is the status for the film production wise and when do you hope to have a release date set? The film is currently shooting principle photography, with promo, editing and musical scoring of the film happening concurrently. We hope to have everything in the can by late June with the film completed by late July. We have no set release date at this point. What is the plan for the film once post has wrapped? DVD, VOD, Film Fests, etc? The film will be submitted to Screamfest L.A. 2013 and also to Sundance for their 2014 festival. Hopefully the film, if accepted to both or one of the festivals, will garner enough of a fan base to at least make a splash when the film releases on DVD, or better yet, get picked up by a distributor and become something bigger than any of us could have ever hoped for. That would be the prime outcome of this film, but all in all, there will be a home video release of the film on DVD that will be available online. Cross your fingers. Without giving too much away, is there a chance for a sequel? Is this the start of a new franchise? I have this story setup in a way that it can expand and continue on in many, many future films. I love the idea of horror franchises and sequels seem to do the best within the horror genre. So, here’s hoping that LOON turns into something more than just a stand-alone film. I don’t want to give anything away but if a sequel opportunity ever presents itself, the story is already in place. Last but not least, what is your favorite slasher of all time? My favorite slasher of all time is Jason Voorhees. He’s the ultimate for me. My favorite slasher movie of all time also belongs to Jason- Friday the 13th part VI: Jason Lives. Thanks Brandon for the interview and make sure to like Loon on Facebook for all the slasher updates on the feature.

How do you deeply clean the eyelashes, eyelids and areas around the eyes? One way is to apply an eyelid scrub – an antiseptic cleaning solution – designed specifically for the eye area. Eyelid scrubs do not contain granules, although they are called scrubs, but they are non-abrasive formulations designed to remove dead skin, bacteria, and other deposits at the lash line. Eyelid scrubs can also be useful in treating some eye diseases, such as blepharitis and eyelash mites. Eyelid scrubs are cleansers that cleanse the eyelids and calm the irritation of the eyes, which are best suited for the times when your eyelids are already sore. Exfoliating the eyelid can be helpful in relieving symptoms associated with lashing eyelashes and blepharitis, a common and non-contagious eye condition. Blepharitis is an inflammation of the eyelid that results in itching, redness, swelling, and the formation of scales or dandruff-like scales near the eyelashes. This occurs when the sebaceous glands at the base of the eyelashes become clogged and inflamed, and it can be caused by a variety of factors including bacterial infections, malfunctioning sebaceous glands, and as a side effect of some medications. Blepharitis can occur in the upper and lower eyelids, but is usually on the edge of the eyelid around the lash line. If you have a problem you should consult an ophthalmologist. When using an eyelid scrub, pay attention to its ingredients. It is important to know the ingredients in the scrub in case you have an allergy. Determining the safety of an eyelid scrub has a lot to do with your skin type. Is eyelid peeling safe? Experts note that the eye area is susceptible to infection and advise caution when cleaning the eyelids, eyelashes, and the surrounding eye area. Look for products that mostly contain skin-soothing ingredients. Before applying an eyelid scrub to your eye area, it is recommended that you do a patch test on another part of your skin to ensure that you are not allergic. You can deeply clean your eyelid and lash line if you do a double cleanse, which includes first washing off makeup and other impurities with a nourishing oil cleanser followed by a gentle wash of your face.

NIKE, Inc. is gearing up for both the Nike Air Max 1’s 35th Anniversary and Air Max Day 2022, indirectly teasing several pairs prepped for both celebrations. Still, the North American sportswear giant has sent the internet into a frenzy with rumors that it’s downgrading the Air Jordan 1 “Chicago” with a vintage treatment this holiday season. The Air Jordan 11 “Cherry” is still set to launch on December 10, but it may have just been overshadowed by the inaugural two-tone style of Michael Jordan‘s first signature shoe, whose legend soared to unprecedented heights. precedent over the past three years. News of the pair’s return with an “aged” aesthetic has turned some previously impatient consumers off, but the shoes are guaranteed to sell out regardless. Bad Bunny and Kanye West may not have the longevity of Jordan yet, but that is gradually changing. Away from the Three Stripes’ partnership with Gucci, the aforementioned designers have unveiled new colorways of their respective Response CL and Yeezy 350 v2. On the New Balance side, it seems that Teddy Santis has prepared three new collaborations as part of Aimé Leon Dore’s spring-summer 2022 collection. General releases like the New Balance 2002R “Refined Future” have also been teased in two new styles, which will surely help the Boston-based brand maintain momentum for another successful year. For a look at all that and more, including more Nike Dunks, check out our top headlines from February 26 through March 6 below.

Brittni Darras is a born and bred Colorado Springs resident, who is using her career to give back to a community close to her heart. After receiving her Bachelor’s degree in English with an emphasis in Literature at the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs, Darras continued on to complete her Master of Arts in Teaching degree from the Colorado College in 2012. Over the course of the past three years, Darras has been teaching ninth and tenth grade English courses at Rampart High School in Academy District 20. Since the third grade, Darras has known she wanted to teach. While in college, Darras tutored students at her old high school, Doherty High School, in a group called Avid (Advancement Via Individual Determination), an in-school academic support program that prepares students for college eligibility and success. While tutoring, Darras really got to know students and talk to them about their ambitions and futures. “It seemed more real world to me and that’s what really made me know that I wanted to do secondary education. I wanted a Master’s degree, and I just went for it.” Since her undergraduate years, Darras has fully immersed herself in the world of education, and she attributes an enormous part of her success to the preparation and experiences she had in the Colorado College MAT program. One characteristic of CC’s program is a small and tight knit learning community. With only ten students in the secondary program, “we could share the experiences, and because it was small and concentrated we got to know our professors. We hung out on the weekends with the other colleagues and we just got to know each other and bonded through the experiences that we were going through,” said Darras. Another unique aspect of the program is the combination of working on a thesis, taking classes and teaching simultaneously. Darras believes managing these three components set her up for a positive teaching experience post-graduation. “Teaching is a lot easier because now I’m used to being busy and doing multiple things at once, because teaching isn’t a job that just stays in the classroom, it requires outside planning and grading and other things, and I think CC really prepared me for that.” Outside of teaching English classes, Darras has committed herself to other activities at Rampart High School. She stresses the importance of community both within the school and without, emphasizing keeping parents involved with their kids in the education process. “I didn’t realize while I was at CC how important that is, but it really is a community. If you really get to know the parents, you can get the parents to work with the kid, and that positive relationship is something that really makes the biggest difference. Darras’ position as the Varsity cheerleading coach and as the student council advisor for Avid displays her involvement and reflects how much she values community. One of Darras’ fondest memories teaching, so far, took place two years ago during a Bald for Bucks assembly. Over the past couple years the students have raised over $30,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and over 100 people from Rampart shave their heads every year. Darras was inspired by one of her cheerleaders who wanted to shave her head, and Darras wasn’t going to let her do it alone. Darras says the fundraiser and shaving her head was something she would never have done if she was not teaching at Rampart, and that the experience was a “life changing impactful moment, and I wouldn’t change it for the world.” Bald for Bucks Bald for Bucks Eventually, Darras hopes to get her PhD and possibly teach at a university. But for now she is “like moss stuck to a tree”, and is in love with her job at Rampart. Colorado is home, and even moving ahead, she foresees her life staying in the beautiful state.

Despite TrueModel pranks, xenophobia, and anti-TrueModel feeling, Castanander correctly predicted in the 8400's that the remaining TrueModel aioid clades would be more inclined to accept standardization with the main body of the Negentropist Alliance.

In so many homes throughout America in another time Painting by Numbers was a staple to occupy a kids time. Thank you Dan Robbins. Robbins was an artist himself who created the first paint-by-numbers pictures and helped turn the kits into an American sensation. He died this week at the age of 93. When you think of childhood entertainment it’s all about electronics, gadgets, AI and drones. That's today. But if you go back in time before any of that when you still had to dial a number on a telephone as the quickest way to communicate there was something completely iconic and so Americana. That little tin with ten paint colors and all you needed was a brush and a few drops of water. According to Associated Press Robbins had been in good health until a series of falls in recent months. By 1955 the company hit its peak when they were selling 20 million kits a year. Some of his works were dismissed by some critics but later celebrated by the Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of American History.

Sloclap’s Absolver is definitely one of the more unique games of 2017, and also, one of the more unheard of. While they market this game pretty hard, I wouldn’t be surprised if you started reading this and asked me what the heck is this about. Well fellow readers, let’s get right into my impression on Absolver. What You Need to Know Absolver is an online martial arts RPG-like game available for PS4, Xbox One, and PC. You assume the role of the Prospect, who is chosen to enter the path of the Absolver, signified by the mask each character dons. After a quick starting cutscene, you are sent on your journey to prove your worthiness of joining the previously mentioned Absolver peacekeeper group in the fallen empire of Adal. Don’t fret, it’s really simple. The mask of an Absolver. On your journey, you are to face a bunch of bosses and mini bosses, in order to unlock a huge door. Better start training! Gameplay The best way I’ve seen other reviewers describe Absolver is that it’s a combo of Dark Souls, Street Fighter, and a little bit of For Honor. That’s some pretty high company this title has to live up to. Upon starting Absolver, you create your character, name said character, and choose a style for your character. There are three styles to choose from, with each offering a different bonus. I choose the Foresaken style, which allows you parry an attack. The other classes are the Kahlt, who can absorb attacks and Windfall, which allows you to avoid attacks. It’s a tough choice to make, with each offering a different combat experience. Following the cutscene I mentioned, you are sent into the world to train. Combat is tense and fluid; you chain light and heavy attacks while blocking your opponents attacks. Your character has a stamina bar that you must manage. Each time you defeat an opponent you gain health back, and gain experience which this is distributed between a bunch of different characteristics such as endurance, vitality, strength. Does that sound familiar? What separates this game from the rest of the pack is the ability to modify your combat deck. You are given a deck which contains attack combos. You can modify said combo to include different attacks, for example, your basic punching combo can end with a deadly kick. You can also learn new combos through combat. Each time an enemy attacks you, as long as you are blocking, you will fill up a little bar that shows you are learning their technique. As long as you don’t die, upon victory you will have learned the technique and can attach it to any of your combos. You also learn a variety of techniques upon defeating bosses. The techniques range from stunning an opponent to increasing their stamina consumption. These abilities consume shards, which you gain during combat. Players can also discover weapons such as swords that can be picked up from the world or gained through progression. Be wary as they can break or an opponent can disarm you if they deal a lot of damage to you! However, if you own the weapon it doesn’t break for good. There is a PvE element in the game, as you encounter players seamlessly in a manner similar to Destiny. It is a lot easier as you can send an invitation to join someone, they answer, and you join their party in an instant. Upon joining a party, you are free to take on the world and kick behind. It also makes the game a lot easier as later areas will through goons at you with no remorse. Be wary that there is friendly fire in PvE, which is very questionable. There is PvP in the game as you can take your Prospect online to face other Prospects. Impressions I was excited when midnight came, and Absolver was available to play. I had to wait until 10 in the morning to play because Sloclap was having server issues. Not a good start to their release. I went to watch The Defenders, and went to bed after learning the servers weren’t coming up anytime soon. Fast forward, and I launched Absolver, connected, set up my character (Master Roshi is his name by the way), and set off on my journey. One thing that I immediately noticed is how good the game looks. It gives me a Dishonored-esque vibe with it’s interesting art style. The combat is stunning to watch as your character flips and lands satisfying punches and kicks. Fight night with a view. I progressed a little bit, and before I knew it, my behind was getting kicked in. One thing the reviewers will stress to you is that this isn’t a button masher, and even though I button mash (because I’m an a-hole), you will get a severe beat down if you don’t use your abilities and think strategically. Stamina drains fast no matter how high leveled your Stamina attribute is, so be smart about it. You will often find yourself surrounded by two or more enemies, and this isn’t the Souls series where you can cheese them to draw one out. If one sees you, the rest will run at you too. The server issues are very annoying, as expected, but this title is brand spanking new, so expect to have some issues. Sloclap is working as hard as they can to nullify server issues. I will say that PvE made the game slightly easier. You can go through the whole game in PvE except the major bosses must be conquered by yourself, which is also questionable to me. PvP is a sweat fest as you can imagine. With the combat deck customization, players can assemble broken combos that will put the hurt on you in a hurry. The first PvP match I joined was on a map with edges that a player can be kicked off of and die. As you can also imagine, my opponent tried using a technique that would push me back when I close to the edge. It was borderline spam, and even though I won, I want you readers to be prepared for what you will encounter. The combat simulator. One of my complaints is the length. The main goal is to become an Absolver, and you must defeat a bunch (I think it’s 10) bosses to unlock a bigger door to fight the last boss and complete your goal. I did that pretty quickly. Once you do that, you can revisit old bosses, join schools, play again with a different character, and that’s about it. Sloclap has said they are going to add more to the game post launch, but at the moment it is a little barebones. Now comes the moment of truth. I enjoyed my playthrough; it’s Dark Souls lite x Karate Kid minus the story. It feels so good to build up your Prospect to be a bad mama jamma. By game’s “end” I just felt like I could conquer the world, and it makes me interested to see what Sloclap is going to add later on. I do hope they maybe add another area to the game with more bosses, but I can only dream. Have you tried Absolver? Are you one the fence young grasshopper? Let me know in the comments below what your thoughts are.

Movies about gambling and casinos have been a common theme in Hollywood since the early days of film. From 1922’s ‘Dr. Mabuse The Gambler’ and the 1931 poker classic ‘Smart Money’, to modern hits like the James Bond caper ‘Casino Royale’ and 2019’s ‘Uncut Gems’, the thrill of gambling has enthralled moviegoers for nearly a century. Over the years, many famous directors have explored the theme of gambling in films, including Paul Thomas Anderson’s first film ‘Hard Eight’, Robert Altman’s 1974 classic ‘California Split’, and of course Martin Scorsese’s iconic ‘Casino’. In 2008, the semi-biographical movie ’21’ revealed to the world the reality of Las Vegas card-counting, and Aaron Sorkin’s 2017 directorial debut ‘Molly’s Game’ explored the seedy underworld of illegal poker games. Gambling is a surprisingly popular theme in the movie world, even amongst those who don’t gamble regularly or approve of the practice. One possible reason is that these films provide an insight into an illicit world that the viewer wouldn’t otherwise expose themselves to. Gambling has traditionally been restricted to brick-and-mortar casinos and is heavily regulated in many countries, making it difficult for average citizens to take part unless they play online at casino sister sites. For many people, their only exposure to the world of gambling and casinos is through the multitude of movies that explore the controversial topic. Most recently, Academy Award-winning director Paul Schrader put forward his contribution to the world of gambling and casino films with “The Card Counter”. The soon-to-be-released film struggled through months of delays during 2020 as the pandemic shut down film shoots across many locations in the US. With only five days left of production, the film was halted in March 2020, when a crew member fell sick. Eventually, after almost four months of uncertainty, the remaining crew and cast managed to safely finish filming the last few sequences without incident. With much of the deliberation and delays out of the way, Schrader completed the editing and put forward the film for release in June. Although Focus Features acquired distribution rights to the film in July last year, no specific dates for box office release have been set as restrictions continue to keep cinemas closed worldwide. Why the hype? Due to a stellar cast and Schrader’s accolades, “The Card Counter” was one of the most anticipated films of 2020 before production was stalled. Now, as we move into 2021, the delays have only increased the excitement surrounding the film. It features Guatemalan-American actor Oscar Isaac who featured in Ex Machina (2014) and A Most Violent Year (2014) and received a Golden Globe nomination for his starring role in the tragicomedy Inside Llewyn Davis. In the film, Isaac plays an army veteran and gambler who is enlisted to join a young man (Tye Sheridan) in his plan for revenge on a military colonel, played by William Defoe. With help from a wealthy financier the trio embark on a gambling odyssey that eventually leads them to the World Series of Poker. The bold and extraordinary film is described as a follow-up to one of Schrader’s earlier films, First Reformed, a 2017 drama that explores themes of religion and hope. The film, starring Ethan Hawke and Amanda Seyfried, received glowing reviews, particularly for Hawke’s groundbreaking portrayal of the embattled Reverend Ernst Toller. “The Card Counter” takes a rather different route but keeps up with Schrader’s signature blend of suspense, drama, and acerbic wit. In order to successfully complete the production of the film despite the delays and restrictions, Schrader enlisted the help of Scorsese, the film’s executive producer and a long-time colleague of Schrader. In the past, Schrader has scripted many award-winning films for Scorsese, including Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, Bringing Out the Dead, and The Last Temptation of the Christ. Speaking to the popular film and movie publication Deadline in June last year during the lockdown, Schrader says he and Isaac took tips from professional poker player Joe Stapleton for scenes in the movie. He also spoke about moving towards making more ‘handmade’, or indie, productions in the future – something he and Scorsese both have a love for. We look forward to that!

Writing a blog is hugely rewarding. I love writing and I love reading and as I learn more about blogging, I’m enjoying teaching people about how to blog. I thought it might be interesting to share the most successful posts on my blog throughout July with you. This isn’t a gloat, it’s hopefully just some inspiration for others to better understand what people want to see. Therefore, below I’ve listed the five most successful posts from this month.

Riddle I honestly wasn’t expecting this review to receive quite the viewership that it did. However, this was the fifth most popular article on my blog this month. Pin me to Pinterest! I posted onto my Instagram story which review people would like to see first, this or Metro 2033 and people chose The Atlantis Gene. I think this may have created some hype around the review itself as I wasn’t aware the book had that huge of a following. Metro 2033 is a bit of a classic and also has been made into a fairly successful game so I thought that might win. I summarised The Atlantis Gene by saying: “The Atlantis Gene set its bar high with its blurb, it mostly managed to accomplish the highs that it sets out and I hear the sequels and other books by A.G. Riddle do a far better job than this, so I look forward to reading those. If you enjoy a mysterious book that ventures into science and history, you’ll definitely enjoy Atlantis Gene. However, I must add, if you’re looking for either a character-driven book or a poetic masterpiece, you won’t find either of those here.” Read my review of The Atlantis Gene here. 4. Book review: The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell I’m not as surprised by the popularity of this review. The Family Upstairs has received both critical acclaim and a lot of hype within the book community. It’s got a very intriguing premise about a woman who inherits a home only to find out its very dark history. We then proceed to read about the dark history with some twists and turns along the way. It’s a great read and one I gave four out of five stars. Pin me to Pinterest! I summarised The Family Upstairs by saying: “I’d recommend this book to anyone who loves a dark tale, those who love amystery and those who love thrillers. Lisa Jewell clearly had a concept in her head when she was writing this and has executed it very well. This is one of those novels that takes quite some intelligence to fulfill the potential of and Jewell clearly has plenty. A big success.” Read my full review of The Family Upstairs. 3. Book review: A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini This book has been on my TBR for quite a short amount of time. I was recommended it by a work colleague and so added it and found it on offer in a book shop so picked it up. After putting up a poll on my Instagram asking which book I should read next, A Thousand Splendid Suns ending up winning by quite a distance. I ended up loving the book and finding it quite the emotive and hard-hitting read. It quite quickly went into my list of some of the best books I’ve ever read (an article I hope to write someday). Pin me to Pinterest! The way I summarised A Thousand Splendid Suns “A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini blew me away. It had come highly recommended by quite a few and it did not let me down. This is a book that will tug at your emotions and immerse you in such a dark and horrible life that you won’t be able to stop yourself feeling sympathy for the women, poor and homeless of Afghanistan during these times and even likely now.” Read my full review of A Thousand Splendid Suns. 2. The 8 Books I Finished in June The 8 Books I Finished in June was a bit of a compulsive post. I had a bit of spare time on the 1 July and decided to start writing the post in the hope to get more people to read the reviews. It’s a simple technique and one I’m hoping to replicate each month. Social media algorithms and busy email inboxes mean not all your posts get into people’s vision. However, if you repost about them then there’s a better chance they’ll get picked up again. Eight is a good amount of books to read in one month – averaging one every 4 days roughly. My goal is to read 50 books a year, it’s a nice round number and is a very respectable number. At eight books a month, I’d get 96 books a year. Though, I did read a lot of shorter books such as The Man in The High Castle, Fahrenheit 451 and Lord of the Flies. The other five books I read were: Hamnet, The Thursday Murder Club, Jade War, Old Man’s War and American Dirt. 1. Comparison: Goodreads vs StoryGraph I’ve used StoryGraph for quite a while now and have used Goodreads for an even longer time. However, I’ve watched StoryGraph grow a lot over the past year and so wanted to highlight some of the great features it has. In my article, I do a direct comparison between the two across different categories and eventually decide a winner. A little spoiler: StoryGraph has a lot more going for it than being a direct clone of Goodreads! The reason this article has become so popular (it has more views this month than my home page!) was due to a tweet I posted on my own personal account (my blog Twitter was banned for a few days) that ended up getting a lot of attention after being retweeted by The Storygraph Twitter account. It was also commented on by The Storygraph’s Instagram account to mine and shared to their story. So thanks to them! So to summarise… Anyway, I’m hoping this becomes a regular thing. I’ll be posting these and the books I’ve read from the previous month each month. Keeping things regular should allow you all to get an idea of what to expect and when. So expect my list of books I’ve read in July tomorrow. To summarise my tips for getting your pages viewed this month is to tag in any large companies you’re writing about, post about it everywhere you can and make sure you try and engage people with your content. Until next month!

Located only 42 miles from Pleasant Hill, CA, just north of San Francisco, Muir Woods National Monument is a day-trip-worthy outdoor treasure in the central California region. This one-of-a-kind park is unlike anywhere else on the planet and is home to an ancient redwood forest with trees dating back hundreds of years (and in some cases, over 1,000 years). Once the native home of the Huimen tribe of the Coast Miwok people, today the federally protected national monument is home to the tallest living things on the planet, colossal old-growth coastal redwoods that reach heights upwards of 250 feet and play an integral role in maintaining a unique and visually stunning ecosystem. Hundreds of thousands of visitors journey to this awe-inspiring natural spectacle each year, with June, July and August being the park’s busiest months. With just under an hour drive time, Pleasant Hill is the perfect base camp for your Muir Woods exploration, with premier hiking trails, family-friendly hotels, global cuisine, and exciting seasonal events that are excellent additions to any central California itinerary. What is special about Muir Woods National Monument? Muir Woods National Monument is the only old-growth redwood forest in the San Francisco Bay Area and is one of only a few such forests remaining on the planet. Located on Mount Tamalpais on the Marin Peninsula, the nearly 300-acre forest is also part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area and is home to hundreds of towering coastal redwoods, some dating back hundreds of years. Originally purchased by conservationist William Kent in 1905 to protect the redwood trees, the land was dedicated as a national monument — then the nation’s 7th — by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1908 and named for the “Father of National Parks,” John Muir. The forest's redwoods have also appeared in several big budget films, including recent blockbusters such as Rise of the Planet of the Apes and The Lost World: Jurassic Park. How long does it take to hike through Muir Woods? Muir Woods National Monument is home to approximately 6 miles of flat, easy to manage trails that wind through the magnificent old-growth forest and along Redwood Creek. Visitors are welcome to choose their own route through the forest — while remaining on the designated paths, of course — and have their choice of ½ hour, 1 hour or a 1 ½ hour loops. Those looking for longer hikes won’t have to search far — the surrounding Mount Tamalpais State Park is home to a number of scenic hikes and trails for all skill levels. What type of wildlife can you see in Muir Woods? In addition to chipmunks, deer, skunks and other common forest inhabitants, keen wildlife observers will see some of the over 50 species of birds that have been spotted within the park, such as spotted owls and pileated woodpeckers. Redwood Creek is home to two species of salmon — Coho and Steelhead — which are usually spotted in the creek from December through January and January through March, respectively. If you look even closer at the forest floor, you’re sure to spot any number of smaller invertebrates, like slugs and butterflies, that play a rather large role in sustaining the surrounding ecosystem. What is Cathedral Grove in Muir Woods? Cathedral Grove is a section of Muir Woods that is home to some of the forest’s tallest and oldest trees. A designated quiet zone within the park, visitors to Cathedral Grove are asked to keep noise at a minimum and instead enjoy the natural soundtrack of the surrounding environment. While in Cathedral Grove, look for a plaque from the United Nations honoring Franklin D. Roosevelt, which was dedicated during a special ceremony in Muir Woods following his death in 1945. Location, Hours, Admission & Parking Muir Woods National Monument is located at 1 Muir Woods Road in Mill Valley, CA. The park is open 365 days a year and is currently open to visitors from 8:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. The park entrance fee is $15 for adults and free for children 15 years and younger. America the Beautiful pass can enjoy free entry to Muir Woods and the National Park Service offers free admission to all park-goers on select days each year. Parking reservations are required and can be made in advance online. The parking fees are $9 for cars, $30 for medium vehicles, and $45 for large vehicles. For convenient park access, consider riding the Muir Woods Shuttle, which provides convenient and affordable roundtrip service from the nearby Pohono Park & Ride. Reservations are also required for those arriving by shuttle. Please note that there is no cell phone service or WiFi available in Muir Woods National Monument, so parking reservations should be downloaded in advance of your visit. Similarly, it is recommended visitors download the NPS app and any offline content, such as maps, to their devices prior to entering the park. Service dogs are welcome, however pets are not permitted in Muir Woods National Monument. There are several pet-friendly outdoor spaces nearby that welcome four-legged guests, including the Coastal Trail at Muir Beach. A visitor center at the park’s entrance offers maps and brochures of the park, as well as several dioramas and exhibits that trace Muir Woods’ storied past. Nearby Attractions Before returning to Pleasant Hill, be sure to explore the surrounding attractions, including more natural wonders at Mount Tamalpais State Park and Muir Beach. Admire the Golden Gate Bridge from the nearby Golden Gate Viewpoint, or enjoy live music and performances at Sweetwater Music Hall and Throckmorton Theater.

A fabulous home starts with an open and honest collaboration between the architect, interior designers, and of course, the home owner. In many cases, this type of collaboration results in a home that is borne out of a special love for a certain style, a particular piece of art, or even a color. But in the instance of this house from the team at LINE Architects, the house was inspired by the homeowners passion for cars. That passion is carried through each choice in the design, even to the extent that the homeowners cars are visible from many different areas of the space.

You instinctively recognize the cannon from the Gonzales Come & Take It flag. That challenge matters today just as it mattered in 1835. This new design offers that challenge in slightly more direct way. This shirt is the ideal weight for tortuous Texas summers and for layering during our ping-pong winters. Very soft combed cotton (except dark heather, which is a cotton blend.)

While a successful rehabilitation looks different for every recovering addict, numerous people will often follow the same pattern on their road to recovery. Getting on the right track begins when addicts hit rock bottom, followed by the decision to quit their substance abuse. This marks a crucial turning point in the rehabilitation process, allowing you to set in motion the following steps. Admitting There Is a Problem Regardless of whether a terrible experience may have led you to finally admitting there is a problem or whether you have come to this realization on your own, this is the first critical stage for any successful rehabilitation. Taking this step will allow you to identify solutions to help you stay sober while also keeping you away from any drugs or alcohol that may have put your life on hold. Getting the Right Treatment Option Getting the right treatment plan comes next, with various options for rehabilitation being in-patient and outpatient rehab centers. The first option allows individuals to live within rehab Austin facilities, helping them to focus on recovery without any external triggers and influences. The second method utilizes scheduled appointments, where addicts receive counseling over several weeks while in the comfort of their homes. In addition to these, other forms of treatment are also available, with examples of these being intensive outpatient treatment and partial hospitalization. Based on your needs, you can choose from either of the above options, with the most suitable being a plan that considers your risk factors and the expected success rate. Getting Support After identifying your preferred option, you will also need to get support during your recovery journey. Support comes in numerous forms, from family and friends to colleagues at your workplace. If your close connections are unforthcoming or enable your addiction, you can still find support from areas such as drug rehab centers. These facilities are created with therapeutic communities in mind, where trained professionals are available 24/7 for mental, emotional, and physical support. Rehab centers also provide sober houses where recovering addicts can help each other and provide support during the recovery journey. Maintaining Sobriety Once you complete your rehabilitation, you can now get back to the outside world on your own. Maintaining sobriety will be a crucial part of successful rehabilitation, with most individuals often relapsing at this stage. To avoid this, identify possible triggers in your environment and how to control them. This may mean avoiding friends who still use drugs and distancing yourself from environments where drugs are readily available. Be on the lookout for aftercare programs that provide support after rehabilitation, as this will be essential in helping you stay committed to your recovery. Examples of these could be support groups, individual counseling, and 12 step programs. Building a Drug-Free Life Rebuilding your life to fit in with your new goals is the last step to successful rehabilitation. Numerous relapses occur when addicts fall back into old habits due to a lack of a structured life. Start by enrolling in projects you enjoy participating in, such as exercising or participating in community projects. You can also take up a new hobby that you think would suit you, such as dancing or teaching. By carving out meaningful activities in your new life, you are likely to feel better about yourself, creating a sense of belonging that creates an overall improved living experience. In addition to this, make it a point to prioritize your health to get the proper sleep and nutrient intake. This helps you avoid any cravings that may lead to a relapse. The above steps will be an essential part of your journey to successful rehabilitation, with self-awareness helping you keep focused when things get challenging. Once you master this, you will be well on your way to a better, more holistic life.

Water infiltration inside your basement comes from openings on the foundation wall and floors. Openings could be a hairline crack or in a lot of homes, the basement concrete floor does not abut the concrete foundation wall. I’ve seen homes with a 1/4″ gap where the floor is supposed to meet the wall. When pouring a foundation the footing is poured generally first. Half Inch Rebar is generally used with vertical and horizontal runs. Sometimes the footing and walls are poured monolithically. This is when the footing and the wall are poured at the same time. The King Piers Team expanded a driveway in Kansas City, Missouri Brookside area. On this project the King Piers Team decided it was faster and would make the structure more structurally sound, so we poured the wall and footing monolithically. Installing foundation piers for over 30 years under footings I have seen it all when it comes to a foundation footing and wall failures. The King Piers Methodology of lifting a heavy structure never involves drilling holes into the structure. Drilling holes into an already small and weak footing is ridiculous and just dumb! The King Piers Foundation Pier & Footing Stabilization System sets the standard on properly lifting a heavy structure back to its correct level elevation and support the structure permanently. The King Pier is the Biggest & Strongest foundation Pier in the World. Made and designed to NEVER FAIL. To date, no King Pier has failed after being installed. No other foundation piering system comes close to the King Pier. Is your home #kingpierstrong?

Portal to Alfheim is a reference to the Anime "Sword Art Online" 2nd season which is "ALfheim Online". Alfheim, or more correctly Ālfheimr (and also Ljosalfheim) was one of the nine worlds in nordic mythology the land of the fairies. Trading with elves using the portal is likely trading with the ljósálfar that inhabit Ālfheimr, but for unknown reasons their title has been shortened to simply elves. Chocohead Nag• Edits• Staff 22:27, 19 July 2015 (UTC) You probably could note both. I suspect it's the first, since Vazkii includes other Sword Art Online references from what I understand, but I don't really know. -Xbony2 (talk) 23:19, 19 July 2015 (UTC) The anime references the Norse mythology though.

Each trimester Casady seniors take a new English course, similar to college seminar courses. Multiple Genre Creative Writing, taught by Whitney Finley, is one of the courses offered during the winter trimester, and students in this course have concluded a unit of study focused on children’s literature. After spending a few days reading and critiquing children’s literature, the seniors began the process of crafting their own children's stories. The seniors worked diligently on their projects and were conscientious about content, structure, characterization, illustrations, and use of rhetorical devices. The project culminated with an opportunity for the seniors to share their stories with kindergarten children today. This opportunity for our oldest Cyclones to engage with our younger Cyclones as a part of the learning process is unique and special for all of the children and enhances our Casady Community. This is the eighth year for this project. Casady kindergarteners will now craft their own unique stories and reciprocate a sharing time with seniors in the spring.
