We wanted to have fun with the bathroom, and capture the character of a boutique hotel. A small space has its obvious downsides, but is also quite freeing in offering up the opportunity to be bold without overwhelming. When we moved into the property, the bathroom was functional but tired (see a little snap of it at the end of the post), a traditional layout with a bath across the width of the room, but in a way which forced the toilet to be awkwardly wedged underneath the window.
With this room, the flooring is the star of the show – vibrant hexagonal green tiles setting the scene for the room and bringing a smile to your face every time it's used. The tiles, which are influenced by Japanese textile patterns, come in some really amazing colours and in the end it was a tussle between green and blue. Using green makes the space really fresh and bright while making it feel very clean and vibrant, and warmer than the blue route. Caroline at interiors blog Patchwork Harmony has used the same tiles but with a totally different look which I love, using them in soft pink.
What started out as a traditional but cramped bathroom layout, is now a super functional shower room. Removing the bath changed the space, and allowed us to design it for how we would use it. The shower unit is larger than standard, and in building it without doors or a fully enclosed frame, it feels spacious and luxurious and utilises the space to its fullest. A small glass screen to the right of the shot keeps the water contained, and the tray is gently sloped downwards to mean we don't flood the bathroom every time we use it!
Off-white subway tiles fill the rest of the space, making it feel bigger through the consistency of colour and texture, while obviously being a really functional option. The original plan was to have pure white subway tiling, and its only when they arrived and were put next to the crisp white new bathroom furniture that we could see quite how 'off-white' they really were. In hindsight though, this was a blessing and the balance of white, grey and green keeps the space from feeling too clinical.
With the floor tiling setting the scene for a luxurious but fun space, the shelving above the toilet brings some warmth with the natural waxed oak. It's also a perfect platform to change the look and feel of the room with different accessories and artwork. The cheeky naked artwork started life as an 'advent calendar' by the artist Mr Bingo, having scratched off the 24 days of modesty coverings, you're left with this picture which felt like a perfect piece to raise a smile in the bathroom. Keeping it company, are two pieces of lovely pottery by Louise Madzia, housing some living colour to soften the texture of the space and tying nicely to the green of the floor.
Given it's a small bathroom, we concealed all of the fixtures within the walls as much as possible to keep it uncluttered with clean lines, while we chose a sink and toilet which hang off of the walls to give a greater sense of space by freeing up the floor.
While the bathroom doesn't tend to be the most glamorous space in a house, we've really tried to give it a sense of personality and make it a space which is as functional as it is fun. And, a big change from what was there before (picture below).


Ninja Shape play it for free and online on Starfall.Club.
Ninja Shape, the game, play it for free and online on Starfall.Club. Guide a lazy ninja towards his foe using only your surroundings.
Ninja Shape, by Pavel Galchenko, Andrey Tyufteev and Boris Strekalov, is a physics puzzle about something we're all familiar with ... being a ninja, who is also very lazy at starfall.club games.
While mastering the ability to turn from a square to a circle and back again with just a click is pretty impressive, it's not really enough to take out the bad guys, who are doing bad-guy-type things, like loitering around with cigars and squinting... menacingly.
You can manipulate the shape of your ninja to get the most out of your surroundings. Use levers, slopes and platforms to get to your target. Try and collect all three stars in each level for a better score.
Ninja Shape is a endless game that made for player can play without pausing. Sometime playing type of game starfall that make player can challenging to themselves is really great. Let bet to yourself how far can you go to deserve a highest score?
In Ninja Shape, you have to guide a very lazy ninja towards his enemy to complete a level. Help the shape shifting ninja to fight off the bad guy in this fun physics-based puzzle adventure.

Good thing your environment has so many useful things to help you club on them to bust them up, all without moving a muscle! Click our hero to transform them between circle and square, and objects in your surroundings to manipulate them or turn them on and off... dynamite barrels and crates can be triggered to destroy brick, for example, and handy suction-cup machines can push and pull anything in front of them around the level.
Grab all the stars scattered around each stage for a perfect score! Ninja Shape isn't exactly a new idea... games like WereBoxand Golden Scarabeus have played with the same concepts and mechanics, but that doesn't mean Ninja Shape is any less enjoyable... or cute! Its mechanics are well implemented, and offer enough variety to keep you on your non-existent toes, though the fact that you sometimes don't immediately shift between shapes when you click can make for frustrating times in area where timing is called for.
Still, Ninja Shape is a fun little break that's just the ticket for when you're feeling like a square. Or... circular. Whichever.
* Surgery addictive and fun It's so addictive because you want to try to get a better score than you had last time and that's also why it's fun because you push yourself to get a better score! Love it!

What is social level? How should it be defined?
Social level is one of the key concepts in current scientonomy. Thus, its proper definition is of great importance. When looking at the scientific change, one might wonder who determines this change. There are many evidences that suggest that a scientific community is the reason for the change in the science' methods and theories.
In the scientonomic context, this question was first formulated by Hakob Barseghyan in 2015. The question is currently accepted as a legitimate topic for discussion by Scientonomy community. Social Level (Barseghyan-2015) is currently accepted by Scientonomy community as the best available definition of the term. Social Level (Barseghyan-2015) states "The level of the scientific community and its mosaic of accepted theories and employed methods."
There are many evidences of a social level in science, one of them being ethical values. In her 2016, Longino makes an interesting point about how ethical values are used to regulate an individual's research. These ethical values are not only based on previous research experiences, but they also imply the existence of a higher community which implies them in the first place. She also mentions monism in her paper, which according to her is a degree of sociality assigned to epistemology of science. Monism assumes that science has a universal goal of unifying its theories and methods, and the community works towards completing this goal. This goal affects the assessment of theories and the employment of methods, because it sees the incompatible theories and methods as problematic for the fulfilment of this goal. 1p. 16.
The social level has an important role in the regulation of the individual scientists. Without a scientific community, the universal accepted scientific mosaic might fail to exist as scientists might accept and pursue different theories. H. Barseghyan defines the social level in his book as a key factor for the modification of the scientific mosaic accepted by the scientific community. 2p. 43. And thus, we can conclude that the social level is essential for the maintenance of stability throughout the science, and also a factor which has an effect on the scientific change.
In Scientonomy community, the accepted definition of the term is Social Level (Barseghyan-2015). It is defined as: "The level of the scientific community and its mosaic of accepted theories and employed methods."

The term Castle derives from castellum which, in turn, derives from Castrum, a Latin term that refers to a military settlement. It is, in fact, in Roman times that we find the first elements of castles, architectural structures that become even more important with the advent of the barbarians. These peoples, nomads and mostly devoted to hunting and war, were also particularly ferocious and it was therefore required to fortify the already existing military facilities.
With the fall of the Roman Empire and the advent of the Middle Ages the decentralization of power required the creation of different types of fortification. At the beginning the scene was dominated by the watch towers whose purpose was primarily military.
The different economic and social structure, typical of the Middle Ages, then, required the creation of fortified towns. The castle became, therefore, the nucleus of a decentralized economy that, from the city, now moved to the countryside. That's why the castle appeared as real fortified village.
In modern times, with the advent of various forms of fortification, the castle lost its defensive role. The various castles began, therefore, to be converted into residences for noble families.
Currently many of the castles in Italy and Europe are in need of renovation and therefore represent an unique opportunity to give a new life to a piece of history.
Owning a castle, live in a castle and, even more, to revive a castle is surely one of the most exciting experiences of life.

In the beautiful Non Valley, nestled on top of a hill among the Alps, Castel Valer dominated the surrounding valley. The fortress dates back to the 13th century and has been owned by the noble Spaur family since 1368: the counts have masterfully restored the building over the last twenty years, preserving its medieval charm and creating something really unique, where one would think to have gone back to the Middle Ages.
On top of a rocky spur overlooking the beautiful landscape of Langhe (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), incredible late-19th-century Neogothic castle currently working as a hotel. Result of a masterful renovation carried out with great care and love by the current owners since the 1960s, the castle (with its annexes) includes nowadays a total of 25 bedrooms and a restaurant. The private wood (roughly 2.0 ha) is an excellent spot for truffles but a project to convert this plot of land into a Nebbiolo/Barolo vineyard has already been approved (as it was in the past).
In the heart of the Peninsula Sorrentina, luxury property with imposing sea view mansion, farm and country houses for sale. Surrounded by olive trees, vineyards and citrus trees, the castle boasts an amazing panoramic view on the Islands of the Gulf of Naples, Capri, Ischia and Procida.
LUXURY CASTLE FOR SALE IN MONFERRATO
At the borders of Monferrato, in Piedmont, we find this beautiful castle with park. The building finely restored, offers a total of 10 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms and is currently a boutique hotel with congress hall and restaurant. The outdoor areas, roughly 6,900 sqm covered for the most part by a well-maintained park, are the ideal frame for al fresco events and ceremonies. In 1908 the building was awarded the title of National monument for its great historic and artistic value.
HISTORICAL VILLA FOR SALE IN LUCCA, TUSCANY
At the doors of Lucca, in a hilly position, historic villa belonged in the past to Paolina Bonaparte. The property (over 2,400 sqm in total) includes, right beside the manorial villa, several outbuildings for a total of 13 bedrooms and 12 bathrooms. The villa is in good condition, while the outbuildings need to be restored. The property is surrounded by a well manicured garden with an impressive 43 × 4 m swimming pool.

The three artists used Picture This as a studio and production space and worked closely with Picture This staff as a production team. Following each residency the works have been exhibited at Picture This Atelier.
The Bristol Mean Time* residency allowed the artist time, budget and space to focus on the production and realisation of a particular idea within the supportive context of Picture This, with the result of generating exciting new works by artists at a critical stage in their practice.
The residency was made possible through Picture This working in partnership with Film London Artists' Moving Image Network (FLAMIN).

My doctoral dissertation began with an incredible find from the Belchertown Clapp Library's booksale: a complete collection of all the editions of Strunk & White's The Elements of Style, found in boxes, on shelves and in the "writing section." It was handed to me as a rubber band bound stack of books about five inches high by my advisor, Dr. Anne Geller (whose mother Joan Geller was a booksale volunteer for the Friends for many years). The thrill of holding in my hand the historical span of this most iconic of writing handbooks was part of what I wanted to examine in my dissertation: the fetish for books as objects and the fetish for The Elements of Style as a guide to "the best" written English. I love the stack of Belchertown book sale Strunk & Whites that sits on my desk. Each book has its own physical features and signs of wear that speak of where it began and the circulation of its body through the years until landing in the basement of a historic library in a small western Massachusetts town. Who owned these books? How were they used? These are questions that a well-worn book always brings to mind. It is the history of the material travels of another cultural object--Standard English--that I want to document through the story of The Elements of Style. My little collection of books with their common stop in Belchertown and their offering as a gift from a mentor feels charged with the radical sharing of knowledge that underlies the institution of the library.

Buying your first home can be intimidating, but it doesn't need to be. Understanding every step of the process and planning ahead to avoid potential setbacks can help ensure a successful experience.
Are your finances in order? Are you aware of closing and insurance costs, as well as property taxes? Do you understand escrow? Do you know how much real estate you can afford to buy?
Making the transition to first-time homeownership may seem daunting as you learn new terms, provide proper documentation for financing and find out how many pieces need to fall into place for the home purchase to be approved and completed. While it's easy to turn to the internet for answers, some issues will not be easily resolved with an online search.
In its 2018 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers, the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) reported that first-time buyers made up 34 percent of all home buyers, about the same percentage as the past couple of years. In addition, 87 percent of buyers purchased their home through a real estate agent.
It is important to understand the financial aspects involved in buying a home. For example, you need to set a realistic budget for an affordable mortgage payment. Compile all the necessary financial documents, save up for a down payment and improve your credit if it is not already rated very good to excellent. According to the NAR's 2018 Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers, 88 percent of all buyers financed their homes. Of those, the majority paid 10 percent of the price as a down payment and financed the remaining 90 percent. If you don't know where to start, a mortgage advisor can help.
Consider all the costs involved in buying and owning a home, including principal and interest on the loan, taxes, insurance and inspection costs. Also remember to think about future costs like utilities, maintenance, commuting, HOA fees and possible upgrades.
If you do not understand a term or do not know what to do next, always consult an expert. An experienced real estate professional can help you find a property, negotiate the deal and guide you through every step of the home buying process.
To learn more about how to start planning for your first home purchase, contact a Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage independent agent today.

In Place Of Hope – Self Titled EP
By RingMaster Review on March 7, 2012 • ( 0 )
If of a sensitive disposition than stay clear of the new self titled EP from hardcore/metalcore band In Place Of Hope. Though it does not neglect the melodic and cleaner side of metal it first with no compulsion to be nice obliterates defences and stretches the ear to extremes. It does at times with an out stretched hand offer to pick one up again but only to allow it to knock ten bells out of its victim all over again. The release is a formidable trio of songs which whilst not turning over new rocks for the genre kicks them around the place with impressive skill.
Formed in 2010 down in Southampton, the quartet of Matt Dennison (Vocals), Russ Barnes (Lead Guitar), Rob Arthur (Vocals/Guitar), Dave Sands (Bass), and Mike Hill (Drums) took an inspiration influenced by the likes of Parkway Drive, Bring Me the Horizon Alexisonfire, and Killswitch Engage and twisted it into their own aggressive and impressive sound. 2011 saw the band matching and upstaging the likes of Evita, Giants, Odessa, Despite My Deepest Fear, and Brotherhood of the Lake in gigs across the South of England, all the while accumulating strong respect and notice further afield. With the release of their EP it is hard to imagine they will not be taking larger and swifter steps up the metal ladder as more fall beneath its thunderous might.
Obviously not a band with an ounce of mercy or desire to take it easy on people within them, In Place of Hope attacks the senses like a tornado from the off with the brilliant Lifelines. The song instantly became a favourite for song of the year with the barrage of violent drums and monstrous riffs that leaves one shell shocked. Many songs do this but once the sinister infectious groove begins to wind itself around the heart, the satanic growls spray venom with every syllable and the clean vocals swarm eagerly all over the debris, the song rises to majestic and impervious to complaint. The drums stomp all over the senses with obvious delight whilst the guitars play with the damaged goods left and it is so satisfying. The song has everything to make it a permanent fixture in all metal hard hearts and sets the band alone ahead of the plethora of emerging metalcore bands.
After such an impressive start there had to be a drop in levels or even intensity. Maybe there is but it is hardly note worthy, the remaining explosions of Bridges and Dark Roads & White Knuckles more than capable of holding their own. The first opens with just clean vocals and guitar to bring a frown but within a few breaths the song erupts into more splintered intense riffs and captivating melodies. The mix of growls and clean vocals favour the latter more in contrast to the opener but the band brings them both together in a defined and seamless mix which many bands struggle to understand or do. The song as does the latter of the two shows the expansive sound and ability within the songwriting and vision of the band and though no song offers anything brand new to leave one awe struck you know it will come, that In Place Of Hope have all the armoury and creativity.
As Bridges closes with sparkling melodic guitars winding down, Dark Roads & White Knuckles muscles its way in with stirring riffs and commanding rhythms. The show is less brutal than the opener despite the bitterly harsh growls, well that is until the band cannot hold back any longer and unleash a thunderous assault bombarding the ear with heavy artillery that breaks knees ability to stand. Once out of their system the band resumes the original intent the song started with, again it is seamless and the switching back and forth exhilarating.
Lifelines may lead the way and set the pace on the EP but overall it is an impressively solid and deeply satisfying release that ensures In Place of Hope have the attention of everyone.

The 2020 North Carolina lieutenant gubernatorial election took place on November 3, 2020, to elect the Lieutenant Governor of North Carolina, concurrently with the 2020 U.S. presidential election, as well as elections to the United States Senate and elections to the United States House of Representatives and various state and local elections. Primary elections were held on March 3, 2020.

In North Carolina, the Governor and Lieutenant Governor are elected separately.

Incumbent Republican Lieutenant Governor Dan Forest was re-elected to a second term in 2016, despite Republican Governor Pat McCrory losing reelection by a narrow margin. Forest was ineligible to run for a third term due to term limits established by the Constitution of North Carolina. He instead unsuccessfully ran for Governor.

The Republican Party nominated businessman Mark Robinson (who was running for public office for the first time), and the Democratic Party nominated state representative Yvonne Lewis Holley. No matter who won, North Carolina would elect its first African-American lieutenant governor. Robinson narrowly won the general election, even while Democratic incumbent Gov. Roy Cooper won re-election.

Because no candidate in the Democratic primary won more than 30 percent of the vote, second-place finisher Terry Van Duyn was entitled to call for a runoff, or "second primary," if she chose to do so. However, Van Duyn chose not to call for a runoff, and Yvonne Holley was awarded the Democratic nomination.

General election

Campaign

Robinson controversy
The Republican nominee attracted controversy in September as a result of his social media posts alleging negative Jewish influence in Hollywood, among other complaints.  He claimed that the movie Black Panther was "created by an agnostic Jew and put to film by satanic marxist [sic]. How can this trash, that was only created to pull the shekels out of your Schvartze pockets, invoke any pride?"  He also mischaracterized former first lady Michelle Obama as male and her husband Barack Obama as an atheist.  Robinson stood by his comments in a September interview with Raleigh news station WRAL, stating, "I don't back up from them a bit. May hurt some people's feelings, some things that people may not like, but those are my personal opinions."

Karen Smith (Co-founder) of Global Lyme & Invisible Illness Organisation (GLiIO) will be attending an afternoon tea with the Prime Minister of Australia this afternoon (Monday 15th February). Thank you to Federal Member for Dawson George Christensen for the opportunity to attend this event and represent people living with Lyme Borreliosis and other vector-borne Illness.
The Post updating how the afternoon tea went garnered a lot of attention, with over 630 'likes', 120+ shares and more than 135 comments from the Australian and Global Lyme community. Thank you to everyone for all the support for myself and for the families of those we have lost.
On Behalf of International Red Shoe Day: A day of Remembrance division of GLiIO, Karen will present Scott Chant's Senate Inquiry submission that was written not long before his passing last week. Scott was a much loved and respected member of the Australian Lyme community and his loss has been profoundly felt by many. Please keep his family and friends in your hearts at this difficult time.
Along with Scott's Submission Karen will also be presenting a folder with research that she has written, as well as links to articles written by other organisations/associations and information provided by those that were able to do so at short notice. Thank you to Multi Systemic Infectious Disease Syndrome Inc.,(MSIDS), Sarcoidosis Lyme Australia, Ruby Red Trust and Chrysalis.


My primary research is in unifying formal theories of "language"; that is, in cross applying theoretical work from the fields of formal linguistics, computational lingustics, logic, constructive mathematics, and type theory. More particularly, I am interested in the interface between morphology and semantics —especially when multiple languages interact, as in: translation/compilation, code-switching/EDSLs, metaprogramming/metalinguistics, etc.
Linguistically, I'm interested in morphologically rich languages, free word order, social/pragmatic aspects of meaning, and cognitively-plausible models of linguistic structure. Philosophically, I'm interested in the underlying concerns of philosophy-of-language, -logic, and -mind that arise when addressing the aforementioned linguistic problems. Mathematically, I'm interested in a broad range of topics in logic and programming language theory. I'm particularly interested in non-standard logics (e.g., modal, substructural, paraconsistant, quantum,…), subtle differences in the formulation of logical formalisms (e.g., explicit vs encoded co/inductive data types, additive vs multiplicative products in linear logic, iterators vs recursors, axiomatic vs local reasoning in modal logic), and the problems associated with variables (e.g., unification and pattern matching, generalized quantifiers, evaluation of open terms, the handling of names in mechanized proofs). Computationally, I'm interested in the design and optimization of NLP algorithms— especially lazy, online, and interactive algorithms and their implementation in the pure functional setting. Despite my calling them "NLP" algorithms, these algorithms often show up in compilers as well, and I am also interested in their applications in that context.
My current and previous projects are listed on the Software page.
Largely orthogonal to my primary research described above, I am also a scholar of gender/sexuality studies— including the linguistics, anthropology, and philosophy thereof. This research often crosses over into my activist work, which is discussed more fully on the About page.
My Blog varies wildly between linguistics, mathematics, programming, philosophy, gender/sexuality studies, discussions of ableism and living with mental and physical disabilities, and more besides. Here's a filtered version which includes only the Haskell- and math-oriented posts.
My Twitter is predominantly focused on social justice activism (as well as offering an outlet for venting and linkspam). However, I do often discuss —and link to discussions of— the underrepresentation of women and minoritized people in STEM; which is often of professional interest to other scientists, engineers, and mathematicians.
Do you want to send messages only I can decrypt? Or verify my signature to make sure something actually came from me and hasn't been tampered with? If so, you can use my GnuPG public key: 5651 8307 703A C6C5 F86F A7D6 211B 98FF DD8B B721. If you're looking for more information about whether to trust my key (and maybe even sign it!), you can find me on Keybase. I also use Wickr, because privacy saves lives and is an essential component of a free and just society.
I use IRC sporadically (username: wrengr). When I'm around, I can be found in #lambdanow (née #nothaskell) and #lambdaladies, as well as various other Haskell and type-theory related channels on Freenode.


The Theraxodrones are the huge apex land predators on Harmonia. The Theraxodrones hunt with one male, or once a month, they do a pack hunt with two males and one female. The males and females are distinctive by their color. The males are a darker red, and the female has a lighter touch of red on her face. The females are very protective, they help gather the food the males hunt and they watch over the cubs and make sure they learn the Theraxodrone way of hunting and family structure.
I hope you like this book. It is a passion project of mine and I have worked on it for over 30 years now.

The Controversial Queen & Diego Maradona Backstage Photos – Argentina 1981
By raul on April 19, 2014 in Queen
These backstage photos of Queen with soccer legend Diego Maradona in Argentina were taken during a South America tour stop for "The Game Tour" are awesome.
The photos were taken on March 8, 1981 backstage at the Buenos Aires stadium Estadio José Amalfitani.
Maradona is wearing the British Union Jack shirt of Brian May and Freddie Mercury is wearing a Diego Maradona #10 jersey from the Argentina national team. This by far has to be the best photo of the bunch, Mercury being "cheeky" and bending over while leaning on Maradona…
When these photos surfaced, Maradona was heavily criticized by the Argentine people for wearing The British Union Jack considering The Falklands War "La Guerra de las Malvinas" between The United Kingdom and Argentina. He defended himself by saying that the photos were taken one full month before the conflict began and one full year before the war had even started.
Here is a photo of Maradona on stage introducing Queen after their encore and before the song "Another One Bites The Dust"…
(Notice Brian May in the background wearing the controversial shirt)
Here's the audio of Maradona's introduction…
Whatever the controversy, Maradona, The UK and Argentina were once again tangled in a controversial mess on June 22, 1986 when Maradona scored two goals, one of them the famous "Hand of God" goal to beat England 2-1.
It's crazy how things work out…

Q: Some problems with gnome-tweak-tool I recently did a apt-get autoremove and ran into problems with my gnome-tweak-tool. It got uninstalled from my system. Later when I installed it again I wasn't able to get it up running unless I was root. So, I purged it again and reinstalled it fresh. Still the problem was not solved. After a lot of tinkering I was finally able to launch it after I did a apt-get install gnome-shell-extensions.
However the problem now is that I get the following message when I run the tweak-tool from terminal
(gnome-tweak-tool:10114): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set text from markup due to error parsing markup:
Error on line 1 char 190: Element 'span' was closed, but the currently open element is 'alt'
INFO    : GSettings missing key org.gnome.nautilus.desktop (key computer-icon-visible)

INFO    : GSettings missing key org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power (key lid-close-suspend-with-external-monitor)

So is there any way to include these missing keys. Or, do I have to do something else to solve this problem.
Also, why did autoremove uninstall my tweak-tool. From what i got to know it was supposed to remove dependencies that were no longer used.
I am using debian 8.

HOMEPAGE MONEY
What Is the Salary Range of a Chocolatier?

A chocolatier closely resembles a chef or cook, but specialises in the creation of deserts, particularly chocolate. There are several large companies which create and distribute chocolate and are well-known by the public. However, there are also many smaller commercial enterprises throughout the United States. Each of these companies needs a chocolatier to direct and determine how the company makes the chocolate and the ingredients that go into each flavour.
The average salary for a chocolatier in the United States is £13,650 as of July 2011, according to Simply Hired. However, this number can vary greatly based upon location, experience and company. A chocolatier who also performs duties as a head cook or chef averages a salary of £29,107 or an hourly wage of £13.90 in these same years. If a chocolatier decides to open his own business, his salary is dependent upon the profitability of the business.
Generally, only a high school diploma or associate's degree is required to become a chocolatier. However, you must also study culinary arts either through a culinary education program or as an apprentice to gain greater knowledge. Becoming a chocolatier requires a knowledge of cooking appliances and equipment, the tastes of various types of food and even some chemistry.
Corporate versus Independent Employers
Employment by a corporation such as Godiva, Hershey's or See's may offer a great range of fringe benefits, but growth within the company is generally limited for a chocolatier. This means that your salary is often limited. Chocolatiers who branch out to include a working knowledge of other types of foods may eventually reach the position of head chef, even within a corporate chain of restaurants. However, a chocolatier who begins with an independent organisation, such as Jacques Torres, look forward to strong growth potential and earnings.
Comparison of Salary by State
The average salary of a chocolatier varies from state to state largely due to differences in demand and living costs. For example, the average salary in New York is £17,550 per year, whereas in Kohler, Wisconsin, it is £13,650. In North Carolina, the average salary for this career is £12,350, whereas in Indiana it is £13,000. In California, the average is £15,600 per year.

A new EU database, approved today by MEPs, will enable EU countries to exchange the criminal records of non-EU citizens' more quickly.
MEPs agreed in a vote on Tuesday to create a new database on the past convictions of third country nationals (ECRIS-TCN), to complement the existing European Criminal Records Information System (ECRIS) that is used to exchange information on the previous convictions of EU citizens.
The new centralised database will improve the exchange of information in regard to criminal records of non-EU nationals, throughout the EU, contributing to the EU's fight against cross-border crime and terrorism.
Include data on dual nationals, who possess the nationality of a third country and of an EU country to ensure that individuals cannot hide past convictions simply by virtue of having two passports.
The Parliament and Council negotiators have agreed that Europol, Eurojust and the future European Public Prosecutor's Office will also have access to ECRIS and the Third Country National system, in addition to judges and prosecutors in EU countries.
ECRIS was put in place in 2012 to exchange information on criminal convictions in the EU. However, using the current system to check the criminal records of a non-EU citizen is inefficient. According to the European Commission, in 2014 national authorities used less than five percent of information available in other countries' criminal records in the conviction cases of third country nationals.
The ECRIS System has been operational since 2012 providing data for an average of 600,000 requests every year.
"Current rules mean it is very difficult to unmask the past convictions of non-EU nationals. The changes approved by the European Parliament today will make our citizens safer," said Rapporteur Daniel Dalton (ECR, UK).
According to Pàl Csàky MEP, the EPP Group's Spokesman on the dossier, this important change means that judges, prosecutors and other relevant authorities will now have all the information needed on criminal acts in the European Union, irrelevant of the nationality of who committed the crime.
"A lot of sentences given in courts in the EU's Member States usually depend on information that judges and magistrates have on the offenders. The introduction of ECRIS was an important first step in making data on previous convictions available to such authorities. Now, we are taking the next step in extending this information system to third-country nationals. This way, the criminal information database will be used to its full potential", Csàky said.
The ECRIS-TCN regulation was adopted by 379 to 170, 118 abstentions and the ECRIS-TCN directive by 422 to 130, 116 abstentions.
The new rules have already been agreed upon by the Parliament and Council negotiators in December, but still require the formal approval of the Council.

Fox's money grab pays off with 'Days of Future Past' Rogue Cut
Matthew Jacobson
mjacobson@thespectrum.com
When "X-Men: Days of Future Past" first came to Blu-ray, I expected to find all the Anna Paquin scenes that had been deleted from the theatrical cut. But when Fox released the film, there wasn't a deleted Rogue scene to be found.
As it turns out, the studio executives decided it would be better idea to offer fans the "Rogue Cut" on a separate Blu-ray (re: an opportunity to make more money). I even dedicated a whole column to my disgust of this moneymaking scheme.
But, even though I may complain, I have to say: The Rogue Cut of "Days of Future Past" is pretty dang cool.
Pop the Blu-ray in and start from the beginning. You'll notice right away that, despite the title of this alternate film, there's not a whole lot of Rogue (she comes in later). What you'll get are a few alternate and new scenes that weren't included in the first cut of the film (or the Blu-ray extras on the first release).
If you pause the movie, it'll tell you if the scene you're watching is alternate or brand-new.
Some scenes have barely noticeable changes (like when the group silently votes to send Wolverine back in time), while others completely alter character development and plot (like a certain hookup between mutants that wasn't there in the original).
The biggest changes start happening at about the halfway mark.
When we do finally get to the deleted Rogue scenes, you'll probably have the same reaction I did: They're fun to watch because they're new, but in the overall story, they're not necessary.
Rogue Cut adds about 17 extra minutes to the whole movie (plus a credits scene that I wish would have stayed in the original), so it might have left theater-going audiences a little overwhelmed. But for those of us who loved the original cut and wanted to see what was taken out, this version is pretty satisfying.
Bravo, Fox.
You succeeded. You got me to pay $20 for a movie I already owned to see a little more than a quarter of an hour of extra stuff.
I was pleasantly surprised at how much extra stuff was included in the Rogue Cut. Perhaps the studio had a bunch of additional content that wouldn't fit on the original Blu-ray, or maybe execs felt the need to tack on a bunch of additional content to justify releasing essentially the same movie twice. Either way, the extras are, like the Rogue Cut, pretty dang cool.
Audio Commentary by Bryan Singer (director) and John Ottman (editor)
This commentary starts off really strong. We get the story behind the story, with Singer pointing out many of the opening scenes that almost didn't make it into the original movie. But as it progresses, the two filmmakers seem to be more interested in watching the movie than commentating on it.
But it's OK because they do point out the parts that were taken out of the theatrical cut, and usually explain why (the MPAA wouldn't let them hang on to one of the Richard Nixon scenes, for example).
Mutant vs. Machine
This is a multi-chaptered special feature with a ton of gems that include interviews with the actors and filmmakers and behind-the-scenes footage. Probably the most interesting aspect about this content, though, is the interview with comic book writers/artists Chris Claremont and John Byrne.
They give us insight into writing the original comic, and how they had to find something to follow up their widely-successful and epic storyline, "The Dark Phoenix Saga.
I just hope the comic creators are excited "Days of Future Past," even with all the changes made from the comic book, was well received by both audiences and critics alike – unlike the bastardization of "The Dark Phoenix Saga" that came in the form of "X-Men: The Last Stand," which did comic books, comic book fans and movie lovers a huge disservice.
X-Men: Unguarded
While I enjoy watching panels at conventions and film festivals, they seem to lose their luster when taped and added to the special features. However, this panel, which brings almost the whole cast together (with Hugh Jackman making a late entrance), is a discussion between the cast and the filmmakers without an audience.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching the people behind the movie talk about their characters and the past and future of the franchise. I think the lack of a live audience actually helped everyone let their guards down a little more.
Oh, "Unguarded." I get it.
I usually don't include the galleries in the list of extra features because they're not usually noteworthy. But instead of the usual gallery fare – a bunch of stills from the production – this is full of concept art, storyboards and costume designs.
So instead of seeing pictures of the movie I just watched, I instead got insight into the development of the film with images of the alternatives to the scenes and costumes. It's pretty cool stuff.
'Fantastic Four' Sneak Peek
I expected this to be a trailer, which in a way it was. But it also includes brief interviews with cast members Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan and Jamie Bell, and director Tim Story.
IS IT WORTH OWNING?
If you're an X-Men fan, then of course you should own the Rogue Cut of "X-Men: Days of Future Past." And you know what? If you're not an X-Men fan, you should still own this movie.

text: Two separate post emergence annual bluegrass (Poa annua) control studies were conducted using various materials and application timings. Both studies were conducted on a mature stand of 'Penncross' creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera) and annual bluegrass at the Valentine Turfgrass Research Center, Penn State University, University Park, PA. The objective of both studies was to determine if selected materials could reduce the annual bluegrass population under simulated golf course greens conditions. Both trials were randomized complete block designs with three replications. For the first study, treatments were applied on April 30 (APR), June 4 (4 WAT), July 7 (8 WAT), August 3 (12 WAT), and October 5, 2010 (20 WAT). For the second study, treatments were applied June 8 (JUNE), July 7 (4 WAT), September 20 (SEP), and October 22, 2010 (OCT). Treatments in both trials were applied using a three foot CO2 powered boom sprayer calibrated to deliver 87.12 GPA using one, flat fan, TP9508EVS nozzle at 40 psi. The test areas were maintained at 0.125 inch using a Toro triplex reel mower. Following applications, certain treatments were watered in with 0.4 inch of irrigation or natural rainfall. Additionally, turfgrass was irrigated on an as-needed basis to prevent moisture stress. Both test sites consisted of approximately 20 percent creeping bentgrass and 80 percent annual bluegrass at the initiation of the study. The annual bluegrass population was visually evaluated in the first study on April 27, 2010 and again on October 1, 2010, on a plot by plot basis, to determine the baseline population and percent change of the population in each plot. In this first study, all treated turfgrass revealed a significant reduction in annual bluegrass population. Plots treated with MRC-01 at 82 or 110 oz/A applied three times had significantly more annual bluegrass control than those treated with MRC-01 (methiozolin) at 55 oz/A, applied only once or twice, and Trimmit at 0.25 lb ai/A applied five times. Additionally, MRC-01 at 55 oz/A applied once or twice did not significantly differ from Trimmit at 0.25 lb ai/A applied five times. The second study employed a program approach to annual bluegrass reduction and control of annual bluegrass was variable. All treatments programs revealed a significant reduction in annual bluegrass populations with the exception of any treatment that was tank mixed with Ferromec. Plots treated with the program of Trimmit at 16 oz/A in June, Primo Maxx at 6 oz/A (4 WAT), and Trimmit at 32 oz/A in September and October had significantly more annual bluegrass control than all other programs in the trial. An observational non-replicated seedbed trial was also established at the Valentine Turfgrass Research Center at Penn State University to observe the effects of various herbicide treatments on annual bluegrass germination. Treatments were applied two weeks before seeding on June 28 (2 WBS), at seeding on July 15 (SEED), and two weeks after seeding on August 3, 2010 (2 WAS). The following herbicides were evaluated: MRC-01, Tenacity, Prograss, and Tupersan. Each provided some insight to the control of annual bluegrass on a preemergence basis that will be considered when designing future research in this area.


Audi will be taking orders for the new Audi TT in the summer, for autumn arrival.
The TT and the Audi TTS were both unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show.
This is the third generation of the popular sports coupe and Audi describes the completely revised model as 'captivating'.
Both the TT and the TTS will be available in a range of four-cylinder petrol and diesel engines, ranging from 184bhp to 310bhp. Start Stop is standard.
The launch model will be a manual, front wheel drive 2.0 TDI (diesel) 184bhp. Audi says the car can accelerate from 0-100kph in 7.2seconds and has a top speed of 235kph.
CO2 emissions stand at 100g/km, attracting €180 annual road tax. This, Audi says, is a 'new record low level in the sports car world'.
The Audi TT will also be offered in quattro permanent all wheel drive.
Audi again has gone with the 'less is more' mantra for the interior of the new TT, with 'purist lines' underscoring 'the lightness and the uncompromising sportiness' of the car's interior.
The instrument cluster in the TT is fully digital and can be switched from 'classic view' which has the speedometer and the rev counter in the foreground to 'infotainment mode' where the instruments are smaller.
Seven new hues are among the eleven exterior colours which will be available. Drivers will have a choice of three interior trims.
Audi's Prof Dr Ulrich Hackenberg said: 'The Audi TT is the epitome of an authentic design icon and a top-performance driving machine.
The new Audi TT is expected to go on sale this summer. Irish prices and specifications will be announced closer to launch.

Lino Banfi (eigentlich Pasquale Zagaria; *  9. Juli 1936 in Andria) ist ein italienischer Schauspieler.

Bekannt für seinen apulischen Akzent, wird er von vielen als einer der markantesten und talentiertesten Komiker Italiens in der Nachkriegs-Ära angesehen. Seine erotischen Komödien in den 1970er Jahren wurden in ihrer Zeit wegen Szenen von Nacktheit und vulgärer Sprache kritisiert. Zusammen mit den Kollegen Lando Buzzanca, Renzo Montagnani, Mario Carotenuto, Gianfranco D'Angelo, Aldo Maccione und Alvaro Vitali machte er diese "Italo-Komödien" sehr erfolgreich und populär.

Leben
Banfi verlebte seine Kindheit und Jugend in Canosa di Puglia. Mit seiner Frau Lucia war er von 1962 bis zu ihrem Tod im Februar 2023 verheiratet, hat einen Sohn (Walter) und eine Tochter (Rosanna), die ebenfalls beide Schauspieler wurden. Seine katholische Familie hätte ihn gerne auf eine Priesterschule geschickt, aber er fühlte sich eher zum "spettacolo" als Sänger auf Festen seiner Umgebung hingezogen.

Mit 18 Jahren ging Banfi 1954 nach Mailand und spielte nach Anfängen in Laienspielgruppen an den Theatern von Mailand, Turin und Genua. Genau dort, nachdem er mit Arturo Vetrani zusammenarbeitete, begann er seine Karriere als Komiker. Hier brachte er typische Elemente seiner heimatlichen Region wie den Dialekt und die Art der Sprache und deren Gesten mit ein. Er begann unter dem Pseudonym Lino Zaga. Der berühmte Totò war es dann, der ihm dazu riet, seinen Nachnamen in Banfi zu ändern.

Ab der Mitte der 1960er Jahre wandte er sich nicht nur von der Revue ab und dem Kabarett zu, sondern wurde auch in zahlreichen Filmen eingesetzt; er war eines der Aushängeschilder der italienischen Sexy Comedies, die zwischen 1974 und 1982 ihren Höhepunkt erlebten. Meist war Banfi dort nicht gefordert; bei nur wenigen Gelegenheiten konnte er seine Fähigkeiten zeigen, so in Dino Risis Il commissario Lo Gatto 1986. In den 1980er Jahren gehörte er zu den Lieblingsschauspielern Nero Parentis.

Im neuen Jahrtausend war Banfi mit der vielfach fortgesetzten Fernsehserie Un medico in famiglia erfolgreich.

Banfi ist UNICEF-Botschafter seines Heimatlandes.
