It's fair to say most grandparents would do almost anything to keep their grandkids happy, and this seems to be the case for doting grandparents Bert and Patti Newton.
Patti, 73, took to Instagram last week to share a loving moment between her husband and their granddaughter, Lola.
In the photograph, 80-year-old Bert was smiling from ear to ear as his granddaughter painted his nails. The former Good Morning Australia host was sporting pink nails in the snap, which matched perfectly with his pink and blue bracelets.
"Lola chose the nail polish poppy had, blue pink and purple," Patti captioned the post.
Earlier this month, Bert and Patti became grandparents for the fifth time after their daughter, Lauren, and son-in-law, Matt Welsh, welcomed a healthy baby girl.
Lauren and her former swimmer husband already share sons Sam, 10, and Monty, two, as well as daughters Eva, nine, and Lola, six.
Patti introduced baby Perla Dolly to the world with a sweet Instagram post.
While Lauren, 38, introduced her new daughter with an adorable family snap of the new-born with her four older brothers and sisters.
In the photo, their sons Sam and Monty, as well as daughters Eva and Lola could be seen beaming with delight as they cuddled their new little sister.
It's been a busy time for Patti recently. In between being a grandmother, she recently appeared as Val Grundy for the 8,000th episode of Neighbours.
The episode, which aired late last month, saw Patti's character introduced to Neighbours fans for the first time in the show's 33-year history, before she was killed off during the same episode.
With grandparents who have made such a huge impact on the Australian entertainment industry, here's hoping little Perla will follow in her famous family's footsteps when she's older.
Are you a fan of Bert and Patti Newton? Have you let your grandkids run wild with the makeup and face paint?

BMW at the Shanghai Motor Show
BMW wanted to maximise the TV interview coverage of their two Board Members at April's Shanghai Motor Show. Once again they asked markettiers' corporate team…
markettiers and BMW have developed a strong relationship in recent years. We've successfully worked for the powerhouse that is the German luxury automotive producer – and one of the world's most coveted brands – on the launch of their i3 and 7 Series cars, and at all the most recent Geneva, Frankfurt, Detroit, Paris and Tokyo Motor Shows.
BMW's Munich-based Global Comms team recently upped the ante, asking us to partner them at the biggest auto show of all – the 2017 Shanghai Motor Show at the city's vast new National Exhibition and Convention Centre. Once again they asked us to maximise the exposure of the two Board Members on site on global TV business and news channels.
Ever one for the challenge – undertaking live global satellite interviews from China sometimes isn't always the most straightforward of tasks – we accepted.
Added to a full-on global news agenda featuring the escalating tensions between the USA and North Korea, and the last week of the bitter French Presidential election campaign, the day before the Show's Press Day Theresa May shocked the world by calling the UK General Election.
However, we were not to be deterred. Our hugely experienced senior team member on site, supported by our media team, set up and managed simultaneous, six-minute prime-time live interviews with CNBC and Bloomberg, both backed with significant B-Roll which we'd distributed. APTN were set up for an interview-led package which was distributed to TV stations with news and car programming all around the world, while interviews with all the key Chinese news and business news broadcasters were all managed.
BMW were delighted with the results.

HomeWatchesHistory of Innovation
Carl f. Bucherer pieces are near the top of many aficionados' wish lists, due largely to the fact that, under their pretty faces, there are some of the most intriguing movements and complications to be found anywhere.
Perhaps not as recognisable as some of the world's biggest watch brands, Carl F. Bucherer is, nonetheless, one of the most respected Haute Horlogerie companies in the business.
Relatively small, with around 160 employees, the brand's pieces are near the top of many watch aficionados' wish lists, due largely to the fact that, under their pretty faces, lay some of the most intriguing movements and complications to be found in any Swiss timepiece.
Based in lucerne, Switzerland, Carl F. Bucherer manufactures luxury men's and women's mechanical watches. Since its founding in 1888, the company has been wholly owned by the Bucherer family, making it one of the oldest luxury Swiss watchmakers continuously held by the founding family. The company is run by the third generation, with Jörg g. Bucherer serving as chairman of the board.
The watch models of Carl F. Bucherer are distinguished by their additional functions including the chronograph, flyback, tachymeter, and tourbillon, as well as indicators and displays such as big date and day, power reserve, 24 hours, moon phases, three Time Zones, calendar, and perpetual calendar.
"The appeal of the manufacture's distinctive watches lies in their innovative technology, useful additional functions, progressive aesthetics and carefully selected materials," the brand says.
"The independent-minded design, attention to detail and uncompromising quality make every Carl F. Bucherer watch an object of lifelong pleasure for the owner. Carl F. Bucherer watches are created for people who take control of their own lives, live at their own pace and enjoy every moment. They are intended for people with vision and who have a message of their own."
The brand's story began in 1888, when Carl Friedrich Bucherer opened a jewellery and watch shop in lucerne. His name rapidly became a synonym for quality and originality. His two sons were destined from the cradle to follow him into the profession: one learned to become a watchmaker while the other trained as a goldsmith.
Today, the combination of these two artistic skills is still reflected in the watches that the brand produces. The company now invests a lot in research and development, but Carl F. Bucherer has always been known as an innovative brand.
For example, in 1919, the brand launched the Art-Deco-inspired ladies' watch collection, which was a revolutionary development. Carl Friedrich Bucherer was one of he first to focus on the wristwatch, still very much an innovation at the time. Whether set with jewels or presented in an octagonal case, these Art Deco watches were soon to conquer the world of ladies' wristwatches.
Dazzling ladies' watches were also a dominant feature of the 1920s. One masterpiece was a platinum watch with a case and brace- let set with 170 diamonds. During the 1930s, watches in unusual shapes became increasingly fashionable. The silver brooch watch in the form of a horse- drawn carriage was set with marcasite.
The door of the carriage opened to reveal the watch, which had its numeral 12 set at the bottom so that the time could be more easily read. Delicate ladies' watches with leather straps also became legendary. The often- slender case was made of gold, and the dial was mostly decorated in typical contemporary style. The case too often had ornaments based very much on the Art Deco style.
In terms of men's watches, sophisticated functions were much in demand in the 1930s: with its jumping hours display, which, unusually, is indicated via a disk, the Rolex Prince C. Bucherer's became highly sought after. Yet even the classic pocket-watch was still contemporary: with a small-seconds dis- play and a champagne-colored dial, Bucherer showed that innovation and elegance were by no means mutually exclusive.
The 1950s and 1960s were, for Carl F. Bucherer, very much dominated by stylish men's watches. Elegance and functionality were combined in the design of these time- pieces. With their symmetrically arranged counters, Bucherer chronographs were truly eye-catching. Often the dial was perfected with practical indications such as a tachym- eter scale.
Watches did more than simply show the time; they became a reflection of the personality of the wearer.

Con un distinguido saludo.
Secretario Delegado
Dicasterio para el Servicio del Desarrollo Humano Integral
As is by now well known, by his Apostolic Letter 'Humanam Progressionem' in the form of a Motu Proprio of 17 August 2016,
(http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/it/apost_letters/documents/papa-francesco-lettera-ap_20160817_humanam-progressionem.html),
the Holy Father Pope Francis announced the creation of a new 'Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development'. This new Dicastery is the result of a fusion of four pre-existent Offices of the Holy See: the Pontifical Council 'Cor Unum'; the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace; the Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Migrants and Itinerant People; and the Pontifical Council for Health Care Workers. These Offices, by statutory regulation, ceased to exist on 1 January 2017, but their respective tasks and responsibilities passed to the nascent Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development.
The Holy Father appointed as the Prefect of this new Dicastery His Eminence Cardinal Peter Kodwo Appiah Turkson, previously the President of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace.
We would also like to inform you that in line with the statutes of the new Dicastery, the current Secretaries and Under-Secretaries of the four above-mentioned Dicasteries, for a period of transition (until Easter 2017), will continue to carry out the tasks hitherto indicated and, except in the case of different provisions, in the meantime the titles that are assigned to them are respectively: Secretary/Under-Secretary-Delegate.
In addition, Pope Francis, in leading the section of the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development which specifically deals with matters relating to refugees and migrants, appointed as his direct assistants to that end, as of 1 January 2017, as Under-Secretaries of the above-mentioned new Dicastery: Rev. Father Michael Czerny, S.I., Consultant of the Pontifical Council for justice and Peace, and Rev. F. Fabio Baggio, C.S., Dean of the 'Scalabrini International Migration Institute' which is incorporated into the Faculty of Theology of the Pontifical Urban University.

LENLS is an annual international workshop focusing on formal semantics and pragmatics. It will be held as one of workshops of JSAI isAI 2010, sponsored by The Japan Society for Artificial Intelligence (JSAI).
This year we especially welcome submissions related to the "Formal Structures of Salience". Salience is a concept with broad application in linguistics and philosophy; in recent years, it has played a role in the analysis of phenomena including focus, particles, and anaphora resolution within linguistics, and in philosophy it has been used in analyses of various kinds of context dependency (e.g. domain restriction and vagueness), as well as in the analysis of convention. However, in many cases, the concept of salience is left as a primitive. Submissions discussing foundational issues in the understanding of salience would be welcomed. We especially hope for contributions with a formal orientation.
On the 20th, there will also be a special tutorial lecture at Ochanomizu University by A. Baltag (Oxford Univ, UK) and S. Smets (University of Groningen, The Netherlands).
The proceedings of the workshop will be available at the conference site for registered persons. We also plan to publish a selection of the accepted papers as a portion of a volume in the `Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence' series (Springer Verlag).
The proceedings of the workshop will be available at the conference site for registered persons. Please follow the link below and register yourself until 12th November 2010.
"Uncommon common grounds and the Korean reportative evidential -tay"
"CF-reduplication: Dynamic Prototype and Contrasting Alternatives"

International star discusses possible Norwich City transfer this summer
According to a report by The Daily Record, Norwich City striker Kyle Lafferty would be open to a return to Glasgow Rangers.
Lafferty is the undoubted star of the Northern Ireland international team, with 20 goals in 58 games for his country.
However, he has failed to get his career going at Norwich City, managing just 11 league starts since joining in summer 2014.
The 6'4" centre forward has been linked with a move away from Carrow Road for a while now and he has openly spoken about his desire to return to Rangers.
The 29-year-old spent 4 years with Rangers between 2008 and 2012 after joining from Burnley and he netted 38 goals for the Scottish giants in that time.
Since leaving Ibrox, Lafferty has played for FC Sion, Palermo, Norwich and has had two recent loan spells at Caykur Rizespor and Birmingham City.
Looking back at his days at Rangers – where he won three league titles – Lafferty said:
"Those were great days.
"We had a special team then and a lot of players who grew up Rangers fans so when we won league titles it meant everything.
"To score in a few of the matches when we actually won the championship was incredible.
"Leaving Burnley, Celtic showed interest but for me it was always about Rangers.
"When I signed for the club it was a magical feeling.
"To go on and win league titles and cups and play in big games was amazing. Ibrox was my favourite place to play and with the crowd behind us the atmosphere was electric.
"At the start maybe I got too caught up in the whole Rangers and Celtic rivalry but that was because it meant so much.
"One incident with Neil Lennon made headlines and that was probably because he was as passionate about things as me.
"I've spoken to him since and we are fine with each other now.
"The longer you stay at a club like Rangers the better you adapt and although it didn't end the way I would have liked, I still have a lot of great memories and I would like to go back and play for Rangers again one day."
Norwich fans – would you get rid of Lafferty? Or is he due another chance? Let us know below…

Aggressive US Naval Academy Military Defense Attorneys
When You Need a Navy Court Martial Lawyer in Annapolis, Maryland
The experienced military defense lawyers at Gonzalez & Waddington have developed a reputation for defending sailors at Navy bases such as US Naval Academy. If you are stationed at US Naval Academy and are accused of a military crime, then retaining the most experienced court martial attorney can be the difference between spending decades in prison versus winning your case or redeeming your career. Our military defense lawyers represent US Naval Academy sailors in both UCMJ and administrative matters to include defending Navy sailors suspect of sexual assault, fraternization, and other offenses under the UCMJ.
When you require powerful and experienced military defensive representation, attorneys Gonzalez and Waddington are ready to help those stationed at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. Our firm is extremely well-versed in military courts. The client is their priority; the Gonzalez and Waddington firm provides each case one-on-one attention, fighting in the defense of their clients.
U.S. Naval Academy Military Defense Lawyers
Unlike most civilian defense attorneys or a free US Navy lawyer, pleading guilty is not something we do often. When we take a case, we make the US Navy to prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt. We take nearly every case to trial and fight the allegations in front of a military panel.
Our Navy court martial outcomes speak for themselves. The suspected sailor and his or her future is our primary concern. Our defense lawyers maintain smaller caseloads than the average free Navy military defense lawyer so that we can focus on each client individually. Your case will not be outsourced to a random attorney and we will not power you into a guilty plea at the eleventh hour. Our military criminal defense lawyers have contested Navy court martial and administrative separation (ADSEP) cases in the U.S. and around the world.
A Brief History of the US Naval Academy at Annapolis
It has been reported that the official location of the US Naval Academy was first chosen in order to protect the midshipmen from any distractions and unfit behaviors found in big cities. Then Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft chose secluded and quiet Fort Severn in Annapolis, Maryland to keep behaviors appropriate. Begun in 1850, the United States Naval Academy, previously the Naval School, first trained only for combat, but the curriculum changed by 1933 to offer a bachelor of science degrees. The modern academy reflects the needs of the nation, first welcoming women to attend in 1976, and now offer high-quality professional as well as academic training.
Social Influences of the US Naval Academy
While the Naval Academy has changed over the years to best reflect the needs of the nation, what has not changed is the high quality graduates who influence the nation in various ways. The Midshipmen who graduate from the halls of Annapolis provide more than just brave officers for the Navy and Marine Corps. Graduates may now choose between the Army or the Air Force as well. However, the graduates and faculty of the academy influence the country even further with over 50 astronauts coming from Annapolis, as well as 16 Marshall Scholars, 45 Rhodes Scholars, 73 Medal of Honor recipients, and 2 Nobel Prize recipients. Most notably, one president, President Jimmy Carter, was also a graduate of the academy. Today, the purpose of the academic programs at the academy are to prepare midshipmen to become Naval officers. The academy does this by combining professional subjects with subjects similar to those at leading civilian colleges. The focus of the courses offered are to train graduates to think critically about world problems, provide practical training, and exploration of disciplines to prepare for graduate level courses.
US Naval Academy Court Martial Attorneys
US Naval Academy Court Martial Defense Lawyer Michael Waddington-
Michael Waddington has more experience than most criminal trial lawyers. Directly out of high school, he enlisted with the Army, rising through the ranks to the rank of CPT. He received the Award for Excellence in Advocacy through the US Army JAG Crops Criminal Law Advocacy Course and is a former Chief of Military Justice. He has successfully defended servicemen and women from various crimes including murder, detainee abuse, maltreatment, trainee abuse, maiming, and other major crimes. He also frequently gives seminars regarding military defense, such as "Attacking Witness Credibility and Rules of Evidence."
A graduate of Temple University School of Law in Philadelphia, Mr. Waddington completed the Trial Lawyer Training Program with honors. He continues to receive honors, recently being named one of the top 100 trail lawyers in the USA by the National Trial Lawyers Association. He has also written for the American Bar Association's book "The State of Criminal Justice." Mr. Waddington is ready to defend your criminal defense case at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. He currently specializes in serious criminal cases, which includes violent crimes, war crimes, sex crimes, as well as white-collar crimes.
Call today to speak with a hard-hitting military defense lawyer.
Navy sailors stationed at US Naval Academy merit the best court martial attorneys available to represent them at their court martial or ADSEP board.
If you or a family member are stationed at US Naval Academy and are accused of a military crime such as sexual assault or if you are facing an administrative separation, NJP/Captain's Mast, or a reprimand, then contact our military defense lawyers right away.


With the arrival of spring, the moment when we would venture into our search for a suitable summer vacation approaches. I have searched through millions of websites so far, in order to plan my family vacation well, and I know how tedious this might be.
In order to prevent you from the suffering, I had to endure, one of these posts was created as a guide to Kefalonia. It starts with the ways of getting there, finding accommodation, to the sights you need to visit. Then, in some of the following posts, you can read about what and where to eat while you're there, and I am even going to recommend you some of the best beaches there.
Because the mass tourism is only twenty years old there. Nature is untapped, most of the beaches are in their natural shape, and the island is big enough so that you won't get bored even for one day. It is a great destination for a honeymoon, a solo vacation or as a family vacation with both younger and older children.
Because it's simple to get to Kefalonia.
If you love sailing and boat rides through wonderful and magically blue lagoons, Kefalonia is made for that.
Because Kefalonia pleases every taste and is suitable for everyone's pocket.
Before I write a sentence or two about the island, for the ones who may not be so familiar with the geography of the Ionian Sea, I assume you have heard of the famous movie 'Captain Corelli's Mandolin', which was filmed there. In case you haven't seen it, be sure to do so before you visit Kefalonia. Leading roles in that movie are Nicholas Cage and Penelope Cruz.
Well, Kefalonia is the biggest island in the Ionian Sea. It is placed between Lefkada, Zakynthos, and Ithaca.
According to the Greek mythology, Kefalonia got its name after the Greek god Kephalos. According to some other legends, as the biggest island in the Ionian Sea, it got the name after Kephale, as a 'head' of the group of islands.
When is the best time to have a trip to Kefalonia?
If you ask me, it's always the best time to travel somewhere 🙂 .
I've been there in July, August, and September. Every month has its own good and bad sides.
It is quite warm in July, and there are significantly more people both on the beach and in the streets. In September, the weather can be changeable. Based on my experience, 30% of the time that I spent there in September wasn't warm enough for swimming.
Kefalonia is so spacious and there is so much to see and visit so that you won't consider that time lost.
If you don't like the crowd and scorching hot sun, then July and August aren't for you.
Families with young children should travel in September… the kids won't be so moody due to the lower temperatures, and there will be more space on the beach.
For those of us who don't have a problem with sun, and who don't like it when it rains while we are on our summer holiday, us who like feeling the summer heat because we still feel young enough, who want the dynamic environment, the right time is from 20th July to 20th August.
The end of September and the beginning of October is best for the seniors, there is less swimming then, but more relaxing and no one rushes anywhere.
What is the best way to get to Kefalonia?
Some cities even have direct flights, but there are always flights from Athens to Kefalonia for the ones which don't have them.
You can get information about everything on Olympic Airways-a.
There are a couple of ferries which can take you from other neighboring islands (Zakynthos, Corfu, Lefkada) and also from the land to Kefalonia. Some of those services enable trips from Patra and Kyllini in Peloponnese to Sami, Argostoli, Poros, and Lixouri in Kefalonia. Be sure to check Cephalonia Lines for more details. Another useful link for the connections with the rest of the Europe.
Traveling by car is always the biggest adventure. You can make a break wherever you want. Personally, I love stopping by one of the traditional Greek tavernas along the way. That is a real treat for me.
Also, the ones who are combining the plain and a car have the option of rent a car. For example, you can take a plain to Athens, and get from Athens to Kefalonia by car, which you will certainly need in Kefalonia.
If you are traveling from Belgrade to Argostoli, it's about 1000 kilometers, 800 of which are on the highway. Meaning, we have endured far worse than a simple ride to Kefalonia.
This is a possibility in combination with a ferry to Kefalonia. If you are planning to change your locations on your vacation in Greece, then, be sure to check KTEL bus servis. The bus is often the cheapest version when traveling by an agency, but it is also the longest one.
Have you ever considered going to Greece by train? It can be very interesting, and you might meet some new friends along the way.
This is also the option in combination with a ferry. Greek international train company OSE and Interrail as the two safest options.
By a traveling agency, you don't have to worry about anything then 🙂 .
The island has about 250 kilometers long coast, so it takes time getting from one side to another. As we are on vacation and don't want to spend the entire day in the car, it is very important that we choose the best location for accommodation.
My recommendations are Lassi and Skala towns.
Both locations are on the sore and have their own long sandy beaches and a couple of romantic bays. It all seems so close, and yet it is so large and wide. In the evenings, you can walk and sit in one of the Greek restaurants, where you can also spend some unforgettable Greek evenings.
The both of the towns are connected well with the rest of the island, so you can easily reach Fiskardo, Sami or Lixouri, or even the continental part of the island from either of those two cities.
The quality of accommodation is good and there is something suitable for any pocket.
What to take to Kefalonia?
You're on vacation, so you should dress accordingly. Casual is the best option for Cephalonia. Heels and long summer dresses, or suits for men will just unnecessarily take up space in your luggage.
One pair of flip-flops, or something similar for everyday walk to the beach. Don't forget the hat, or a cap, or even a sombrero if you want to be spotted 🙂 , and of course, the inevitable sunglasses 🙂 you can bring more than one pair to match your swimming suit.
A couple of shorts and some T-shirts.
A towel and a swimming suit are mandatory, but in case you forget them, you can easily find some in the nearest supermarket.
If you've decided to visit some caves and monasteries, you'll need something that will completely cover your arms and legs, because you won't be let in otherwise. Men could replace shorts with a pair of light trousers, and it's even easier for women. One large scarf will do.
You have to think about the shoulders because revealed shoulders aren't recommended during those visits.
It's significantly colder in caves, so it wouldn't hurt having something to cover your back, as our grandmas would say.
It can get cold, and constantly rain for two days, so you'll need something warmer, like long sleeves, sweatshirt, longer pants, socks, and sneakers. Wear layers.
You'll need a pair of comfortable sandals, or summer sneakers because of the long walks through the caves and monasteries.
They are not something glamorous but they have done an excellent job 🙂 for only about 20-30 euros.
If you're in Kefalonia in September, you'll need some warmer clothes, but no more than a sweater for the evening.
If you prefer credit cards, take some cash with you as well, because there are shops and restaurants who do not take credit cards. In those cases, cash is a getaway strategy from the awkward situations and helps avoid doing the dishes to pay back.
I have often been in a situation that my phone dies exactly when it shouldn't, so I don't manage to take the best photo ever in that moment, and I get furious. Unfortunately, that is everyone's fault at the time.
I have started avoiding similar situations by carrying the additional external charger with me.
If you're taking your camera as well, then it should also be additional battery and memory card. Trust me, I know what I'm talking about.
A backpack is a great choice for the beach and sightseeing. There is no need to carry mountaineering backpack, you can also use some light variation.
The easiest way to travel through the island?
The easiest and the best way is to get rent a car, in case you haven't arrived with your vehicle. There is also local transportation, but it's not that reliable in all locations. It is ok to use it if you are going, for example, from Lassi to Argostoli, but for everything else, forget about it.
As you have a lot to see and visit, I emphasize that car is the best option.
What keeps most people away from rent a car is the cost. Costs can be different for different parts of the year.
We took a B category car for 3+1 day, and that 1 day was free of charge. It cost us 160 euros plus ¼ of the tank which we were supposed to return the car with. It's always been the best option to take the car for more days, but it wasn't doable in our case.
Just as a comparison, 2 days cost 120 euros, 4 days are 160 euros. It would be even better bargain for 7 days.
The company where we rent our car was CBR Car Hire Cephalonia and you can check everything they offer there.
This was one of the expensive variations, but, on the other hand, they seemed the safest. For instance, along with the main street in Lassi in which I was accommodated, there were at least 6 different rent a car services, all with a different price for the same category of vehicle.
What were they playing with, that made such a difference in price?
With the insurance, of course. It's all shady, and you can't put your finger on it. One have the basic insurance, other have the all including one, and there is no way you can understand the difference.
I didn't want to think and stress out, while I am on my vacation, about if I had made a scratch on the door or something else. I took the car with the complete insurance so that I didn't have to worry about who scratched whom.
If you want a vacation without stress and scratches on your rented car, then CBR is a solution for you. You can find it in Lassi, at the airport near the place called Svornata, or in Lourdas or Skala.
The car was in pretty good shape and it met all our demands 🙂 . I thank it for doing so.
It's best to take a pen and paper and make a list of everything you think is worth seeing, and what you can read in this and the next posts. Then, you can make daily tours.
You'll need 4 days to visit the entire island with one or 2 visits to the beach.
I am now going to give you some suggestions on how you can organize your days, and what you can see in those locations, you can read in one of the following posts.
I was accommodated in Lassi, which is on the western coast of Kefalonia, so that is where all of these trips started from.
Moving westward, you have the option of getting to Paliki peninsula by car, and you can visit Farsa on your way there, or you can also get a ferry from Argostoli which rides every 30 minutes. Thus you can get either to the peninsula or directly to Lixouri from where you move on. The ferry costs 2-3 euros per person, the price for the 4 of us along with the car was 14 euros.
In case you are taking the byway to Lixouri, it is approximately 1 hour 15 minutes of driving, and it will only take you 20 minutes by ferry.
A luxurious day. Being seen. That is the longest ride through the island from Lassi.
It takes 2 hours to get to Fiscardo.
Fifth and sixth days are optional, in case you wish to completely use your stay in Kefalonia. You can organize an outing by yourself or over some of the tourist agencies in the place you picked to stay in.
In case you are organizing it yourself, you will need a vehicle again, for transportation to some bigger cities where there are ferries to take you to Lefkada or Ithaca.
The best thing to do is spending the rest of your vacation swimming in some of the most beautiful beaches in Kefalonia.
Well, have a safe trip to the summer vacation you haven't experienced before.
I love Greece, however never made it to Kefalonia! Now looks like I wanna go 🙂 Thanks for this helpful post!
Oh this makes me want to go back to Greece so bad! I went to Santorini and slightly regret my island decision. This place looks just amazing and the fact it's big and mostly untouched is quite alluring. I loved the video as well, it added a nice virtual tour!


My roof does not face perfectly south -- it actually faces south east (and more east than south). It is a completely unobstructed, 45 degree pitch. Can I get a solar PV system installed on it? Will I be able to lease this system?
Yes. There are many new optimizers that can be used in order to get the most out of your PV array. Solar Edge makes a great product that will allow for system to achieve maximum power potential even on a not so optimum roof.

Studied at the Famous Artist Schools of America, got her papers in 1967 and started singing. (Singing education at Beb Ogterop Academy) 35 years a professional singer, (first female protestsinger in Holland in the years 60-70). After that mainly Jazz. Had my own band, several records and performed worldwide in TV and -Radioshows. In the Netherlands my own tv-show (José b.b.h.h) in the years 70. After slowly finishing my career as a singer I was asked to start to carry out wedding ceremonies in Ouderkerk and Amsterdam. Later on the rest of the Netherlands and abroad.


Jesus has had his face set toward Jerusalem since the transfiguration back in chapter 9 of this gospel. For 10 chapters he has been on this journey, traveling, teaching, preaching, getting his message across. And now this is the beginning of the end. Jerusalem was to be his final stop. He knew what lay ahead as he looked down upon the city in the valley from the Mount of Olives.
Not everyone in the crowd understood what lay ahead of him. Very few would have really gotten the whole picture. Some might have simply been going along with the group, heading to Jerusalem for the high holy days of Passover like people flock to DC for the cherry blossoms and the parade. Some may have accompanied him thinking now was the time for inciting a rebellion, the chance had come to overthrow the Roman powers that be and install a new, Jewish, king. Then there was the other crowd, gathered on the other side of the city, awed by those who were marching into the city from the west, riding majestic horses with Pilate, the Roman governor, carrying weapons and showing off the military power and presence—making it very clear that the governor would allow no rebellions during the Passover time.
Two parades. One day. The might of the Roman rulers on horseback coming from the west and the humble Jesus on a colt, never ridden, coming from the east. It is a visible and highly symbolic clash of kingdoms—the kingdom of Rome and the kingdom of Jesus the Christ, one kingdom based on oppression and one kingdom based on peace, the kingdom of the world and the kingdom of God. There had to be an underlying sense of dis-ease on the part of any who were paying attention. How would the end of this story play out? Which kind of ruler would be victorious?
Luke connects us back to the Old Testament prophets—remembering the words of Zechariah: "Lo, your king comes to you: triumphant and victorious is he, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey." What kind of a king rides a borrowed colt or a donkey? What kind of a king plans so precisely the way he will enter the city, making specific arrangements for his own travel on a colt that had not yet been ridden? How is a king humble and victorious at the same time? What kind of king is this, after all?
The king of peace. One who marches to a different drummer. Look at the greeting that bookends this life of Jesus: Peace. When he is born, heaven proclaims: Peace on earth! As he prepares to die, earth proclaims: Peace in heaven! It is like the response we use every Sunday in sharing the peace, but on a cosmic scale. Not the kind of peace forced by military might, with soldiers clamping down on any whispers of rebellion in the city. But the kind of peace God brings, shalom that means wholeness, hope and justice for all.
Some Pharisees were uncomfortable with all the shouting, the cheering. Maybe they were afraid Pilate's soldiers marching into the city would take notice of this motley crew coming in from the east. Maybe they were afraid they would be interpreted as rebels who wanted to put their own king in Pilate's place, resulting in harm for the Jewish people in Jerusalem. "Tell them to stop!" Jesus replies with words that seem to echo another Old Testament prophet– Habbakuk… "I tell you, if they were silent, the stones would shout out!" God's truth can not be silenced. Injustice and oppression will not be victorious.
As we remember the parade into the city from the east… I invite you to take some time this morning to gather with your connect groups to share a special Holy Week memory. Please be brief so that everyone will have time to share. When your group is finished, please quietly return to your seats.
BREAK: Connect Groups- Share a special Holy Week memory.
I hope the memories you shared and heard in your connect group will help you to focus on the power of this week we call holy. Setting aside this time helps us to remember the steps Jesus took. I encourage you to make time this week to read the rest of the story from Luke chapters 20-23. Review again the ending actions, words and interactions as this part of the story comes to an end? This week we call holy also reminds us that the story is far from over. Jesus was born, lived, taught, and healed. That is the beginning of this story. The beginning ends with his death on a cross, a brutal capital punishment, a horribly painful way for any human being to die. But that is not the end. After his death the story continues. The story continues with the resurrection, the formation of gatherings of believers and the passing of the tasks of Jesus' ministry of compassion, peace and justice into hands like ours. We are the continuation of this story of God's love for the world. What better week to remember afresh our calling to be God's hands and feet on the ground? What better week to celebrate the long and fruitful life of a saint like Kay Bayly?
Today simply marks the end of the beginning. As long as our feet remain on this earth, the story is not over. We continue to carry on Christ's mission, to live out the story wherever we go. Thanks be to God. Amen.


Should both "pseudo-servers" be merged? IE should there be a wormhole or anomaly connecting the Classic and TNG quadrants?
If there is a significant change next year, (6.0) should the high score list roll over?
Again, I'll stress that we will not see any major changes here before 5.0's year has ended. (April 2016 at the earliest) The key to making an annual (or longer if need be) development cycle work, is to take logical steps through the brainstorming, planning, building, testing, beta, tuning and implementation stages. So for now, I'd say we're in the infancy of the brainstorming stage, and there is no rush to get this done. Much further down the road, (maybe Feb or Mar?) I'll create a public clone/beta server for experimentation and testing.

Of Guise and Dolls: a conversation with Melissa Ichiuji
April 27, 2016 By intsculpturectr in In the Studio Tags: John Anderson	Leave a comment

As we spoke about a class she was teaching, and of past events, Melissa Ichiuji toyed with a knife and wasp's nest. "I am restoring a piece that has to go back to Belgium. It had a wasp nest inside." The nest wasn't an infestation: it was a part of Kissie Kissie, a figurative doll that rests on its shins. Leaning forward somewhat seductively, arms arched back, the anatomy of its face had been replaced entirely by the hexagonal weaving of a hoard of wasps. She holds up the replacement nest she'll use to fix the sculpture. "It's gorgeous, right?"
It's the third time Ichiuji has restored the work since 2010—as part of a private collection in Brussels that regularly lends the work to various European exhibitions. All the packing and unpacking, and shifts in climate has taken its toll. At the time we spoke, it was in preparation for the exhibition "Dolls and Taboo" at the House of Culture in the Province of Namur, which will include works by Pierre Molinier, Pascale Martine Tayou, Cindy Sherman, and Louise Bourgeois, amongst others. "But they chose this sucker to be on the cover of the catalog and on the side of the museum. So, I have got to get this thing in the mail so it can be there by the opening day or I'm going to be in big trouble!" She offered with levity. Although, with less than a week to fix the work, and three weeks to ship from her studio in rural Virginia, to the mid-March opening of the exhibition, she's feeling a bit of pressure. "These are the kinds of things you don't learn in school, and you could spend a lot of time doing this kind of stuff."

Ichiuji is a 2006 graduate of the now defunct Corcoran College of Art and Design (the program has since been absorbed by George Washington University in 2014). In 2005 she grabbed considerable attention from The Washington Post for her (non) performance, Stripped. Over the course of several months she slowly gave up the comforts of life, concluding the project by standing on a table outside the Corcoran over the course of a day in May, and into the night, before ending the piece a day early from medical concerns about dehydration and hypothermia. It's one of the few performance pieces she has done since capping off a 14-year career in dance and theater. Since graduating her work has consisted mostly of figurative soft sculpture that is often surreal and sexually provocative. Recently, from public interest and demand, she has begun teaching a class on doll making—Guise and Dolls—in her Virginia studio and the Washington DC area.
I assume since people are contacting you [to take this class] they already know about your work, they know what you do, and they respond positively to your work.
Yes. Oh! Why? Were you concerned about the content in some way? It's never come up! I've been under the radar for as many years as I have been here, but I started letting people know what I do and it hasn't ruffled any feathers. In fact, since doll making seems approachable and doesn't have all the baggage of fine art, people feel comfortable coming here without any experience. And they also feel comfortable knowing that they are as free to be as edgy or weird as they want. People love the opportunity to have a place to do that. And since the instructor has already gone there, they feel comfortable being able to do that themselves.
What's the content they are producing?
Some students use journaling as a jumping-off point. Some dive right in to very personal and sensitive content. Some tend to want to throw a penis on their piece. Like right away: the first piece out of the gate. Which is fine with me. I have professional artists in my class but for many, this is their first experience with sculptural work and they are focusing primarily on shape and gesture. I make clear from the beginning that the piece doesn't have to be representational. You are free to take what I teach you in terms of making an armature and go completely abstract if you desire. Some of them aren't ready to do that, which is cool. But, I'm very impressed with my students' work.

When did you start using dolls in your work?
I started when I was about six. This is why I teach what I teach… doll making as a tool for self-discovery and healing. When I was five, my house burned down to the ground in the middle of the night. The whole family barely got out. So there we were in our nightgowns, in the middle of the night, running through the woods trying to get to the nearest neighbor. We lost everything in one night, and started from ground zero. We were dependent on neighbors for clothes, and ended up in a little apartment. I don't recall my childhood being depressing or sad. Now, having said that, my mother went through a severe depression. She nailed blankets on all the windows, and I took to scavenging scraps of her clothes and shiny objects, and precious things, and started making little dolls. And they entertained her. I have a collection of them; she kept them. It felt good. It felt like I was doing something productive. It was comforting for me and they made my mother smile. Then I discovered boys and dance—and started a career at 17.
In my early 20s I was on tour with a production of West Side Story. We were doing a show in Scotland. I went to a museum. It was called The Museum of Childhood, and they had all kinds of dolls. Like, everything: very sophisticated to very crude. One doll in particular struck me. It was a bone—just a bone—with a little piece of fabric tied around the waist. It looked like a very poor child had made this doll out of n-o-t-h-i-n-g. But the impulse to do that! I looked at that and thought, I know what that is: that feeling to make something that, not only would you want to take care of it, but it was like a surrogate for yourself. Like, a way to organize a kind of chaos, and tame it. What I didn't know is that about a week later I would break my ankle on stage in Scotland. So I was sent home to recuperate. While I was there I couldn't do much, so I started sewing again. My love of making things with my hands was reignited.
But there was a space of time between when you broke your ankle and when you enrolled in the Corcoran, right?
Yes. But something was set in motion. When the injury forced me to stop dancing for a while I gravitated to an old childhood language I'd used to express myself when I was hurt.
When did the dance career come to a close: that chapter where you would segregate dance from when you started attending the Corcoran?
I probably didn't stop dancing until 2000… or 2004. It's a little blurry. It took a while to ease out of performing. I had been very entrenched in the dance, TV and theatre world in New York and DC.
Right, but you do still incorporate dance in your work, too. It's not like it's DONE.
Well there's always the feeling that I would like to revisit dance more in my work. The question is how to incorporate it without it being d-a-n-c-e! [pantomimes jazz hands]. There's always that question, for me, anyway.

Do you get that question a lot, or is that, like, an interior dialog?
Well, not so much. It's just something I love to do and I feel like I'm robbing my spirit when I don't dance. I still take classes. And even in the beginning of my doll making class we do a physical warm up. I believe that if you are trying to render the figure you have to understand what the spine is doing. It's just like if you put a pencil in your mouth, your brain doesn't know you are not really smiling, but your brain feels happy. So, if you want to communicate how your doll is feeling, put your body into the position that you want it to feel. Also it's important to me that the class develops a sense of community which is why we do physical exercises. It's a bonding thing. I want the class to be an environment where people are free to reveal themselves. So if everyone starts with group exercises it opens channels and builds trust. I don't know… It's an old theater thing.
Since you are dealing with this restoration now, what does that make you think about when it comes to what materials you use?
I didn't know when I made Kissie Kissie that I probably should avoid using organic materials that are fragile. But I did, and that's part of the attraction of the piece. Much of my work is about things that are unstable and falling apart. But yes, I do think about conservation a lot. And also "How will this be photographed? How will it be packed? How much will it cost to ship? Is this material going to hold up with people not wearing gloves or getting stored in damp places?" So I always check myself: am making choices with integrity? Am I cutting corners? Am I challenging myself and my practice? But if you talk to collectors, being a collector is not an easy position. A collector takes on the responsibility being the custodian of ephemeral items that have to be stored and taken care of. It is a big-ass job if you are a serious collector: it takes commitment.
Is this the only piece you have in the exhibition in Brussels?
No. There are three pieces.
What are the other pieces in the exhibition?
There's a piece called Shape Sorter, which has a Madonna and Child motif. The mother is strapped into a highchair. She is dismembered and her lips, eyes, breasts, and pubic triangle have been carved out like puzzle pieces. The baby stands on the tray examining and tasting the pieces. He is discovering mother and woman through these shapes. And a piece called School Girl, which is a girl laying on her back inserting school letter blocks into her vagina which you can see through the thin membrane of her tummy. Edification by way of eroticism.
I recently saw you were migrating toward steel. How is that going?
It's going great! I love it on so many levels: working with fire and heat and it forces me to use different muscles. It's funny; I'm working with something hard, and unyielding, and very masculine and industrial. But my impulse is to want to beat it into a feminine shape. Rather than allowing it to be what it is, I want to make it soft. That's the impulse. It takes a lot of work to do that.
I'm working on this piece called Goddess of the Burning House, in preparation for an exhibition at the American University Museum (Washington, DC), in November, and I was interested in female monuments. And I think there is some kind of statistic that of all the monuments in the nation there are maybe 8% that are of women. So I thought it might be interesting to explore that idea.
That gets back to your house burning down as a kid.
My work always tends to touch on the same types of things: the fragility of the condition we are in: the push and pull of life and death. I think, no matter what I make the work will continue to tap that vein.

Relationship secrets
Micheline - The love for Willem-Hein
"I met Willem-Hein 15 years ago during the Fringe Festival in Edinburgh. I did a Jacques Brel program there, in a church. The show started with me popping up in the back of the room like a shrieking devil in a bright red dress with a black cape. Willem attended the performance together with Xaviera Hollander, with whom he organized theatre programs and concerts in the Netherlands. Afterwards, they came to me because they wanted to book my show, but Willem stayed in the background.
That was different when I came to the Netherlands for five concerts a few months later. Willem was the one who brought me from Schiphol to The Hague for my first concert. I just came from Australia, had a jet lag and immediately said, "I don't want to chat too much, because my voice is tired." To which he responded: "That's fine because I have a hangover."I immediately found that relaxed, although I didn't think so much about it. I had a broken heart from my previous relationship of four years with a New Yorker, I was actually a bit done with love.
And then after my third concert, Xaviera said, "That Willem is such a nice guy, but he always has those difficult girlfriends. It would be so nice if for once he'd fall in love with a really cool girl. "So apparently he is free, I thought. That still stuck. After my last concert, Willem suggested going dancing in the Melkweg. That wasn't my thing, the music was too loud. The following evening felt much better. We saw each other at Xaviera's house where I was staying and spent hours talking with the two of us. Xaviera does not drink herself, but she did have a bottle of good whiskey at home. That night we kissed for the first time.
Not long after, Willem came to my then home outside of Ghent and we had wonderful, romantic days together. I fell for his charm, his humour and his beautiful, clear, blue eyes. Such a person must be sincere, I thought. He was also so warm, so solid. Yet I repeatedly asked him the first few weeks: "What do you want from me?" Because I just couldn't believe that someone could be that perfect. But it was possible. "
Willem-Hein - the love for Micheline
"Brel sang by a woman, I was a little wary of that. But all the great reviews that Micheline's show had won me over. And as soon as I saw her emerge as a devil, I was sold. There are a lot of artists who can sing nicely but otherwise stand a bit stiff on stage. The opposite was the case with her: she has a powerful stage appearance, and also a beautiful voice.I was single, had had some girlfriends. It wasn't that I immediately thought: I want this woman. Micheline didn't notice me in Edinburgh that night anyway. But her week in the Netherlands was, of course, a great opportunity to get to know each other better. Actually on stage, because I guided Micheline to her concerts and helped with the sound and light during the soundcheck.
Our contact was easy immediately and I secretly enjoyed the way she pronounced my name. I am a bit of a voice fetishist, and I found hers sexy and firm, without a trace of restraint. Micheline is also a woman who stands. She knows what she wants, she speaks up. And I love powerful women. Micheline also looked and looks fantastic. Xaviera certainly helped me by expressing her hope that I would come across a nice, serious girl again. Not that Micheline was over immediately.
In the Melkweg, she went to chat extensively with acquaintances from the Belgian music scene. The kissing on the following evening did not mean that we automatically entered into a relationship. I found that lack of obviousness refreshing. Even after our romantic week in her house near the river in Ghent, she turned the switch with amazing ease and went full for her planned performances. When I'm in love, I have a bit more trouble switching. Yet I already knew that Micheline was the one for me. After two weeks I asked her about her attitude towards children. She found that bold. She said, "I am not against it, but I want to keep singing." We now have two sons of ten and twelve. And of course, Micheline still sings. "
How nice that you find Micheline so outspoken, Willem-Hein. Many Belgians see that as a negative characteristic of the Dutch.
Willem-Hein: "Micheline is outspoken Belgian. She says what she thinks but always remains sweet and reasonable. That makes it great.
"Micheline: "I like directness. Then you know how someone'. "
Willem-Hein: "That was once also a reason for you to move to New York."
Micheline nods: "New Yorkers are very straight forward."
Willem-Hein: "Prefer to call them straightforward. It is good to use Dutch words, and Flemish of course. I often find that very beautiful. "
Micheline: "That Flemish people pronounce bikini differently, you mean? And certainly, instead of for sure. "
Willem-Hein: I also think 'diddy' is beautiful, and malcontent for dissatisfied. But when we lived in Amsterdam, you also broke into Dutch. Your family sometimes said: "Allez, you're becoming a "Holland girl"! Micheline: "We have been living in France for six years now. My Flemish returns.
"Willem-Hein: "And sometimes I use Flemish expressions, so now we are in balance."Micheline: "The boys think they speak four languages: Dutch, English, French and Flemish."Willem-Hein: "They are very proud of that."
Why did you move to France?
Willem-Hein: "Micheline regularly had complaints about the weather in Amsterdam. If she brought the boys to school, she would come back soaking wet too often. "Micheline: "Or numb. I was not particularly happy in the winter. "Willem-Hein: "Nice weather, that was the main motive.
"Micheline: "We were lucky that we could rent the house of producer and director Nico Knapper in Vence, in the south of France for a while. We ended up staying in Vence, and now we partly rent out our own house. It is a small paradise with an enormous garden. The boys have space there. "
Willem-Hein: "Only now and then I feel malcontent. In the theatre season, you travel to the Netherlands or Belgium almost every weekend, but I'm more stuck with my web design company. Sometimes I am in France for months on end, at my computer. I hardly even see my best friends. "Micheline, cheerfully: "So you go to the Netherlands a bit more often now. That works out well. Although I think we are doing well together in France. "
Willem-Hein: "In the first instance, nobody is waiting for you there, but we have now built up a good circle of friends."Micheline: "We both practice yoga, I ride a horse and you go climbing regularly. We know people from that. But also through the children's school. "Willem-Hein: "And via the JOP; the circle of young Dutch entrepreneurs, of which I have recently become chairman. "
Do you have enough time for each other?
Micheline: "We make time consciously. Sometimes it doesn't work out, but usually, we have a day of pampering every month. The intention is to take turns in surprising each other. Like: "Put on your hiking boots!" And then don't go for a walk, haha. "Willem-Hein: "Good food, watch a beautiful show, or go to the seaside, all of that is possible."Micheline: "We recently started something new that we read in a magazine. The bottom line is that you do something small during the day of which you think the other will be surprised. In the evening you ask: "And what was it?" Willem-Hein: "For example, taking over a chore or being extra attentive. We do not do it by appointment, but regularly. The result is that you pay more attention to each other and are challenged yourself. Very funny.'
That sounds a little therapeutic. Micheline: "Who knows, it's possible one needs therapy. "Willem-Hein: "A relationship is never complete. You have to keep working on it. "Micheline: "It is true that I have learned lessons from my previous relationship. It went wrong because I didn't dare to be honest enough. If there was something small, I thought of what my mother always said, "Ah, you have to add a little water to the wine." So if now there is something o my mind, even if it is small, I speak up. You always respond so disarmingly. Understanding, solution-oriented. You are more closed yourself.
"Willem-Hein: "I speak more than before."Micheline: "More and more. But I have to pull it out, or get the worms out of your nose, as we say in Belgium. "Willem-Hein, hesitantly: "In the first instance, you often also respond more negatively than I do."Micheline: "I am indeed less easily convinced of something new. Sometimes you also buy things of which I think: What ?! And afterwards I am so pleased with it. The bread machine for example. "Willem-Hein: "Ultimately you are the one who bakes the bread. Basically you are a very traditional girl. I also like that: a diva on stage and two feet on the ground at home. "
Are there more points where you differ?
Micheline: "Willem dresses the house much more than I do, and buys plants for the garden. Delicious, all those colours. And what I greatly appreciate: he has much more patience. "
Willem-Hein: "With children, you know that you often have to count to ten. But control is saying it all. I think it is good for children to see your true emotions when they push too hard. Although you are only really moody when you are hungry. As soon as I've served you something tasty, it's over. "
Micheline: "I used to be angry if you drove too fast."
Willem-Hein, smiling: "On those escargot roads here. We have come up with a nice solution for that: if I get a fine, you get lingerie for the same amount. It's a shame that the Waze app now warns me about cameras. "Naughty look:" It's time for a Ferrari moment again! "
Micheline: "Hahaha!"
What have you learned from each other?
Micheline: "Have a little more patience. And continue. Even when I start running alone, I hear Willem's voice: "Allez Mich, just a little sprint, you can do it!"
Willem-Hein: "In private, I can be a dreamer. Setting up a vacation, for example, does not happen. Micheline taught me to hit the nail on the head again. "
Can you compare each other with a place, a song and a dish?
Micheline about Willem-Hein
Place: "The sea, because it is just as beautiful blue as Willem's eyes. I'm still drowning in it. "
Song: "The Chain by Fleetwood Mac, because it radiates power. The necklace of our love is, fortunately, stronger than the link in the song. "
Dish: "Rendang, a spicy Indian dish with beef. Willem is a Taurus and sometimes a bit stubborn. If he wants something, then he perseveres. "
Willem-Hein about Micheline
Place: "L'Olympia, the famous theatre in Paris, where Micheline will probably perform again. She's already singing about it. "
Song: "Dreams, also from Fleetwood Mac. Because Micheline has already made many dreams come true and it is now a common thread in both our lives. "
Dish: "Thai salad, the first dish I made for her. Surprising, outspoken and spicy-sweet with a tiny touch of sour. "
Micheline Van Hautem (51), born in Ghent, sang at the beginning of her career in various pop and rock groups. Later she found her own style in jazz songs, English "standards" and French chanson. Her program around Jacques Brel was her breakthrough. More information at www.michelinemusic.com.

The paranoid Carter Page transcript: What in God's name did I just read?
For anyone who doesn't want to curl up with 243 pages of testimony and footnoted letters, here is pretty much how the thing went, severely condensed:
Carter Page: Hello. I am a doctor and a scholar, and I am here about the world premiere of the dodgy dossier that inexplicably made all kinds of charges against me, an innocent man who has never met anyone directly in my life! I have been illegally wiretapped by the FBI, CIA and other U.S. propaganda agencies, and my life has been ruined. I must be continually on the move, like a shark. I have done nothing wrong, but I will answer none of the questions put to me, because I have been studying the law. I am, as I said, a scholar. Here is a letter. I know it looks like a scrawl in red crayon, but trust me -- it is a letter about the CIA's illegal dossier. [...]
Rooney: Did you ever meet Mr. Trump?
Page: No. Never. I've met him in my heart. Never in my life, except on the television. And at rallies. I think he is beautiful and has a lot to teach all of us.
Trey Gowdy: So, you were a volunteer, unpaid, informal, unofficial. What was your role, exactly?
Page: Sometimes I would stand outside the glass window of the Trump campaign and look in admiringly, but I never ventured to set foot inside. I was not involved in any way, except I did sign a non-disclosure agreement, it will turn out, and met repeatedly with Sam Clovis. Honestly, no one wants me to be involved, ever. All my emails to them were unwelcome and went unreturned. I never went to Trump Tower, except for the fly-swatter incident. Whenever I showed up at Trump Tower, they would shoo me away with a big fly-swatter. One or two times or maybe eight. Ninety times. I never spoke directly to Donald Trump.
Gowdy: Why do you keep saying "directly"? How else would you speak to a person?
Page: Listen, Trey, we can speak as one lawyer to another. I am an expert in the law after taking a mail-order course in what I believe is known as the Law of the Sea, and I know a man must choose his words wisely.
Gowdy: What?
Page: Listen, you have to live your life. I went to a gathering of scholars at the New Economic School, and everyone I met there was a scholar, although it would be fairer to say that I greeted them than that I met them. I don't remember who any of them were. Some were lifelong friends.
Schiff: What is a scholar? You keep describing yourself as a scholar, but I am not sure that word means what you think it means.
Page: I would define scholar very loosely to include the Russian deputy prime minister, several senior officers of Russian energy companies, and also myself, but really I only spoke to the man on the street.
Schiff: The man on the street.
Page: The television, mostly, and I went to some speeches. And I did greet that man in passing who I would later discover to my horror was the deputy prime minister. For three seconds, tops. But mostly the television.
Previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously, previously.

Everything he says reminds me of that Donald Sterling transcript. "Sir, the question was, is this your handwriting?"
MattyJ says:
With a touch of my favorite Bill Clinton quote: "It depends upon what the meaning of the word 'is' is."
Narr says:
It does depend on what the definition is. Kenneth Starr said it wasn't, and Bill answered honestly. You'll recognize the common WTF elements are Republicans.

Jesus H. Christ.
I went down the rabbit hole of reading the actual transcript. (May God have mercy on my soul)
I'm only a few pages in (heavily skimming it) and already it sounds like borderline schizophrenic ramblings. Apparently the "Clinton/Obama Regime" (his exact words) took out an "illegitimate FISA warrant" (his exact words) against him and produced the "Dodgy Dossier" (his exact words), as part of an ongoing "witch hunt" against him and Trump (in that order), blah blah blah... It reads like something out of r/the_donald. (Which I highly don't recommend visiting.)
I think the linked 'summation' barely scratches the surface of this insanity.

Unrelated: Victor Zsasz should get a spinoff show. Would calling it "All That Zsasz" be too cutesy?
Penguin Pete says:
Maybe Carter Page is just Sarah Palin with her head shaved.

I thank you for this public service. I can now safely go back to ignoring any news or blog article with this guy's name in it.

Q: Are all odd numbers coprime to powers of two? I need to pick a number $n$ which is co-prime to a number which is a power of two $m = 2^b$. It seems true to me that all odd numbers between 1 and $m$ will  be coprime to $m$, but I can't find a specific proof of this anywhere.
I have tested this with code up to a 32 bit power of two $1 < b < 32$, but that doesn't prove it's always true...

A: Not just up to $m$.  All odd numbers will be coprime.
An odd number will not have $2$ as a prime factor.  A number $m = 2^b$ will only have $2$ as a prime factor.  So any odd number and any $m = 2^b$ will have no prime factors in common.  So they will be coprime.  QED.

A: Think about it this way: in your typical computer, in an integer data type (signed or unsigned, regardless of word length), the least significant bit of an odd number is 1. Which means that if you divide an odd number by 2, you're going to need a real data type rather than an integer data type.
For example, 101 in binary (5 in decimal) divided by 10 (2) is 10.1 (2.5 in decimal). 101 divided by 100 (4) is 1.01, 101 divided by 1000 (8) is 0.101... you get the idea.
I don't know much about how computers represent non-integral numbers, but the point here is that if you divide an odd number number by a power of 2 (with a positive integer exponent), the result of that operation can't be held in an integer data type.

EDIT: For some strange reason I mistakenly thought the commenter was someone other than the asker, so I felt no urgency to respond. I only aimed to provide a different angle to look at this from, not give a rigorous proof.
But that's still easily done while looking at the bits of an integer data type. If $n$ is an odd number greater than 1, and $m$ and $\alpha$ are both positive integers, which may be even or odd, we seek to find $mn = 2^\alpha$. Let's say $n = 2k + 1$, where $k$ is a positive integer.
If $m$ is also odd, let's express it as $2j + 1$, with $j$ is also a positive integer. Then $mn = 4kj + 2k + 2j + 1$, an odd number. So $m$ must be even after all, so $m = 2j$. Then $mn = 4kj + 2j$, an even number, which is what we want. But $mn$ has at least two on bits, since $4 > 2$ and $kj > j$, but $2^\alpha$ has only one on bit, followed by $\alpha$ off bits.

A: Yes, that is correct, since the only prime factor(s) of any number $m = 2^b$ is $2$, while any odd number $n$ does not have $2$ as a prime factor. Hence, such $m$ and $n$ share no prime factors, and are therefore co-prime.

As many of us are aware, one of the cornerstones of obsessive-compulsive disorder is doubt: Did I hit somebody while driving? Did I say or do or think the wrong thing? Did I shut off the stove, turn off the lights, and/or lock the doors? The list goes on and those with the disorder often find themselves obsessing over things that may or may not have happened.
But what if you are fixated on an event in your life that actually did occur? What if you did "something terrible" a long time ago (or last week) and now you can't stop thinking about it?
You're trying to remember all the details, you're analyzing every aspect of the occurrence, and you're wondering about how awful a person you must be to have done what you did. Then you could be dealing with real event OCD (sometimes called real life OCD).
I think it's safe to say that most of us, whether we have OCD or not, have done things in our lives that we wish we hadn't. It's all part of being human. We are not perfect, and sometimes we make mistakes — in how we choose to act, in which road we decide to take, in how we treat people. Many adults cringe at the thought of some of their behaviors as children or teenagers and would now behave very differently if they could go back in time.

Ryan made his theatrical film debut with the film Love + Hate which was released in the UK in May 2006. Subsequently, the film was released in the theaters in Italy and Norway in January 2007.
Ryan made his first TV show appearance on the talk show The Mo'Nique Show as a guest on December 9, 2009.
In 2007, Leslie enlisted the help of trainer Oscar Smith to flesh out a workout plan for him. Since then, he has been working out regularly every morning and has also changed his sleeping habits to incorporate fitness into his busy schedule.

Ryan Leslie Facts
As a child, Ryan played cornet (an instrument similar to the trumpet) in the Salvation Army band but due to his overbite, it became difficult to get proper embouchure on the brass instrument. As a result of it, he switched to piano.
Before starting his career in the music industry, he did a production internship with Grammy-nominated producer Younglord in the summer of 2003. Ryan has credited his time there as the reason behind jump-starting his musical career.
During his first week as an intern, he produced the song "Keep Giving Your Love To Me" which was performed by Beyonce for the Bad Boys II soundtrack.
In October 2010, Leslie's laptop, which contained intellectual property, was stolen from his Mercedes-Benz while he was on tour in Cologne, Germany. He eventually issued a reward of $1 million for its return.
Armin Augstein, a garage owner in Pulheim near Cologne returned the laptop. However, Leslie refused to reward him as the sensitive information was missing from the laptop. The court ordered the reward of $1 million to be paid to Augstein after a lawsuit in 2012. Additionally, he was asked to pay an interest of $180,000 for refusing to pay for two years.
In September 2013, Ryan's 2010 Cadillac Escalade was seized by the New York City marshals and was auctioned 2 days later for not paying the amount as ordered for the laptop. Apparently, he only paid $5,000 for the laptop.
He was included in the list of New York's 50 Hottest Bachelor's in 2009 at the 26th spot which was curated by PageSix magazine.
In 2011, his then-girlfriend Nicole Trunfio called the cops after Ryan was allegedly harassing her by calling her and knocking on her door repeatedly. Detective Luis Mortimer followed up on the complaint and left a voicemail on Leslie's number asking him or his attorney to return the call. Leslie, instead, included the voicemail in his song "Joan of Arc" while dissing his ex-girlfriend. As this kind of exposure had tarnished Mortimer's credibility as a detective and caused him embarrassment, he sued Leslie over violation of his civil rights.
He is multi-linguistic and is fluent in English, French, Dutch, and Japanese.
He considers Stevie Wonder as having the biggest musical influence on him. Apart from him, his other musical heroes include Michael Jackson, Jimi Hendrix, Prince, James Brown, VBak, The Beatles, Quincy Jones, Tom Waits, D'Angelo, and Sconch & McGubbs.
