Kristofer Straub (born January 17, 1979) is an American web cartoonist, performer, and content creator. His key web comic projects include Checkerboard Nightmare, Starslip, Chainsawsuit, Broodhollow, and F Chords. Other notable projects include the creepypasta "Candle Cove" as well as collaborations with Scott Kurtz ("Blamimations"), Paul Verhoeven ("28 Plays Later"), and Penny Arcade ("Strip Search", "Kris and Scott's Scott and Kris Show," "Acquisitions Incorporated: The C-Team").

He currently writes and produces the YouTube analog horror series Local 58 TV. He also works with Penny Arcade, co-hosting the PAX gaming conventions as well as appearing in their Dungeons and Dragons collaborations with Wizards of the Coast.

Career
Straub graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles, with a degree in computer science.

Web Cartoonist
Straub launched his first comic, Checkerboard Nightmare, online in 2000. The strip was self-aware and used metahumour to follow the main character Chex's obsession with gaining fame as a webcomic character.

In 2005, Straub began creating Starslip Crisis (eventually shortened to Starslip), a daily science fiction/comedy webcomic. Starslip was first set in the 3440s and followed the crew of starship-museum IDS Fuseli,
named after painter Henry Fuseli, which largely featured 20th and 21st century art.
Starslip Crisis was part of the webcomics cooperation collective Blank Label Comics until Straub split away from Blank Label to merge Starslip with his new collective,  Halfpixel, in November 2007.

The comic initially ran under the name Starshift Crisis. The nearly identical Starslip Crisis appeared early in the strip's run, with its own website and associated content, differing only in that the term "starslip" replaced "starshift". The two ran in parallel, until a strip in August 2005 which definitively ended the plot of Starshift Crisis, but which played out differently in Starslip Crisis. Reportedly, the name change was caused by a legal issue.

In 2008, Straub began writing another webcomic, Chainsawsuit, publishing three strips a week. The comic featured simple black and white drawings and slapstick humor. It ran for 11 years and achieved particular notoriety for its strip All Houses Matter upon release in 2014 and then again during the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests.

Writer and producer
In December 2006, Straub became co-writer and co-producer alongside Scott Kurtz on PvP: The Series, a series of animated shorts featuring the PvP characters. In 2007 he repurposed the Halfpixel site to serve as a hub for his and Kurtz's joint creative projects. Halfpixel later expanded to include webcartoonists Brad Guigar and Dave Kellett of the comics Evil Inc. and Sheldon, respectively. The four published How To Make Webcomics through Image Comics in the first quarter of 2008. The book covers a variety of topics of interest for beginning and intermediate webcartoonists.

Straub went on to co-produce Blamimations and the Kris and Scott's Scott and Kris Show for Penny Arcade TV. In 2012, ShiftyLook announced that Straub and Kurtz were co-producing a new animated web series, Mappy: The Beat, in which they also voiced all the characters. The series premiered in July 2013 and aired for 13 episodes.

From 2008-2012, Straub managed and wrote for his own horror fiction website Ichor Falls, which featured his most notable work of short fiction, Candle Cove. Structured as a series of forum posts, it follows people discussing a forgotten children's program. They uncover increasingly disturbing shared memories of the program before discovering that Candle Cove was merely half an hour of TV static which they, as children, had collectively perceived as a story. Rights to the story were picked up by SyFy in 2016 and served as the basis for the first season of the series Channel Zero.

In 2015, Straub published the first video in his horror web series Local 58 TV, which was later moved to YouTube. The series coined the term analog horror and arguably kickstarted the popularity of the genre. Some critics cite Straub and Local 58 as having solidified conventions which would go on to define the genre and even indirectly influence feature-length horror films such as Skinamarink (2022). Additionally, in 2021 Straub launched an Alternate Reality Game based on the series hosted at Local58.tv, which is still running as of December 13, 2022.

Podcast host
Straub has co-hosted numerous podcasts, most of which center around the online comic industry, daily life, or comedy talk shows.

In 2005, while part of the comic collective Blank Label Comics, Straub and Dave Kellett co-hosted the Blank Label Comics Podcast. The podcast interviewed fellow webcomic creators about their comics and creative process.

In 2007, leading up to the release of How To Make Webcomics, Straub - alongside the books co-authors, Scott Kurtz, Brad Guigar, and Dave Kellett - produced the podcast Webcomics Weekly. The show featured industry news and insight on making a successful web comic. In this same time period, Straub and Kurtz also produced two joint podcasts, The Kris and Scott Power Hour and Daily Affirmation.

From 2009 to 2012, Straub also hosted the comedy internet radio talk show Tweet Me Harder with David Malki. The show was recorded live, with the hosts taking comments from Twitter. Its transcripts were later published in paperback form under the title, "Hey World, Here Are Some Suggestions." Following Tweet Me Harder, Straub then co-hosted Chainsawsuit: The Podcast with Mikey Neumann. The show began in April 2013 and spanned to December 2014. Beginning in January 2015, Straub and Neumann began hosting Morning Rush, which ended in June 2015 after 16 episodes.

In 2016, from July to December, Straub co-hosted the horror podcast Scared Yet? with cartoonist Abby Howard. It lasted 6 episodes, with Straub and Howard discussing horror storytelling, writing advice, personal favorite horror stories, as well as personal experiences with writing horror.

Performer
Beginning in 2017, Straub has had recurring roles in the table top role playing game (TTRPG) Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) actual-play series "Acquisitions Incorporated" and spinoff "Acquisitions Incorporated: The "C" Team." The series is a collaboration between Penny Arcade and Wizards of the Coast, and was eventually canonized in the official D&D Sourcebook Acquisitions Incorporated. Straub's character, writing, and art appear in the book and its related materials. He also writes and produces animated recaps and interstitials for both series.

In 2022, Straub took over for Penny Arcade's Mike Krahulik to co-host some key PAX events with Jerry Holkins.

Just after midnight, the officer arrived in the alley, where a man with a gun was arguing with a woman, who was holding a child, Conrad said.The man allegedly pointed the gun in the direction of the officer—the officer fired several shots, he said."He responded to the threat," Conrad told reporters.The investigation, which is still ongoing, shows the man did not shoot at the officer, he said.The Jefferson County Coroner's Office has not yet released the man's identity.Louisville Metro Police will release the identity of the officer after an interview with the Public Integrity Unit, Conrad said. That may be as soon as Thursday.The officer has been put on paid administrative leave.Conrad said the woman and child were not injured.

Mr.Muliebris
Digital photographic artist and photographer in New Zealand
Private Journal
Welcome to the updated site
Today marks the long-overdue release of a fresh update of the www.mrmuliebris.com website. Along with new images and galleries, it has been restructured under the covers to use a database, as trailed in this earlier blog. The new look Galleries page offers more information about the galleries on offer and now offers a search feature.
To reduce the number of pages, the site has been converted to use a database. I've written this blog to summarize how it was done for those of you who use Wix and might want to do something similar.
Just a quick note about terminology. Wix lets you build what it calls dynamic pages. Dynamic pages are essentially templates that can be connected to a database you create.
Previously the site had nearly 60 static pages, most of which were collections of images, one per collection. Now there are just nine pages on the site. Two of these are dynamic. Those two dynamic pages replace 50 static, hard-coded pages.
The basic structure of the site is simple. My galleries are themed collections of images. Galleries might be collections themed by a set with one model, such as the new Behind the scenes gallery; more whimsically, such as Art is a lie (Photoshop manipulations); or show uncensored social media posts. Galleries and images are stored in two database tables. There are over 50 gallery records and 884 image records at the time of writing.
Wix has a relatively easy to use interface for creating and maintaining the data. That said, data entry was the most time-consuming part of the conversion job. I tried to automate it. Wix says Excel .csv files can be used to import data. However, the data is in Lightroom, and in its wisdom, Adobe has not seen fit to provide a way to output metadata in tabular form. None of the third-party tools available quite did what I wanted. That meant I had to populate the tables manually using copy and paste. I got occasional timeouts updating tables but it wasn't a big deal. Given my day job and domestic obligations, I managed one collection of images a day - which took 50 days, at about 10 to 30 minutes a go! It was a tedious job. I made it even more boring by deciding to add alt-text to the images to improve the site's SEO. Here's hoping, anyway.
By default, Wix assumes an index -> item relationship when creating dynamic pages. A musician might create many albums, for example. Providing you establish a link using a key in the data structure, Wix creates a template index page that links to a template item page. Wix calls the index 'Galleries(All)'. Wix calls the item page template 'Galleries (Title)'.
However, Wix doesn't currently provide a drag and drop template means of populating an item Galleries(Title) page with an embedded set of images -- or, at least, not in the way I wanted it to look. It's a third level of embedded structure, as it were. This is equivalent to not allowing an automatic way of showing all the songs on an album that a musician creates.
This is where Wix's terminology can get confusing, by the way. In the basic template environment, Wix provides multiple options for displaying sets of images on a static page. But it calls them… "Galleries". Technically, it means Image Galleries.
I happen to like the grid version best, but none of the Image Galleries worked properly on a dynamic item page straight out of the box. I wanted the user to be able to expand each image to see the accompanying text and credits. However, all 884 images showed in the Image Gallery on each Galleries(Title) page, irrespective of the gallery.
I needed to be able to tell the Grid Pro Gallery embedded on the page to only show the images relevant to the collection gallery.
To get this working, I had to get to grips with the Corvid by Wix extension. Basic Wix is a template site builder for people who don't want to code. Corvid by Wix allows a novice like me to program extra functions into the template site using Javascript. Javascript is a programming language that allows you to code features on web pages. I last programmed about thirty years ago, so it took a little getting used to, but there is plenty of support available online. I found Wix's support good too, although there were some frustrating things Corvid by Wix and Wix can't do easily, such as link from an image in one gallery to another. I think I'd have to build an image display function myself, which is beyond me right now.
To get just the correct images for one of my individual galleries to show on Galleries(Title) page, I found this video by Alex. I created the Image database schema with a single key, a code for the gallery title. The Corvid by Wix Javascript code loops through the Image table to filter images with the right key. The page code also hides or shows a blog button and lets the user go back to the index. The code looks like this:
Because the galleries and images are stored in a database, the site can now support search, filter and sorting features.
The code is adapted it from this video by Wix and supporting forum entry.
Was it worth it? Well, I had no choice as the site will otherwise likely exceed the 100 page limit Wix imposes on static pages. It has been a lot of work. While frustrating at times, I found it fun, but I'm weird like that. The advantage is the site now is easier to maintain than it used to be. Putting a new gallery up is considerably easier and less prone to human error - it's just data entry.
Contact me if you want to know more.

Turning cocoon into silk rope for five generations
ISTANBUL - Anatolia News Agency
Producer Hasan Büyükaşık says they get a nearly 1,700-meter-long silk rope from one cocoon and color them using meddar. AA photos
Hasan Büyükaşık, a local of the southeastern province of Hatay, has been recently been getting involved with his father's business of producing silkworm with traditional methods. Büyükaşık, 78, produces silk products in his garden facility with his wife and children, and exports them to countries from the U.S. to China.
Speaking to the Anatolia news agency, Büyükaşık said silkworm producers began working every spring, when berry trees begin to blossom. He said they put the cocoon on a ground and that worms are born after a 19-day incubation period.
Then worms begin to spin the cocoon and finish it in 10 days. "It is a super naturalistic thing. Some worms remain in the cocoon that they spin and some leave it. We put the cocoons that are in a good condition in hot water and try to get the ropes from it with the help of a specially made broom. We can get a nearly 1,700-meter-long silk rope from one cocoon, then we process it and get colorful ropes using madder. These valuable ropes turn into dresses, scarves or sheets," Büyükaşık said.
He said that when he was a child there was always a furnace in the garden of every house but that this is now history because of developing technology. "I am in love with this business. It has been continued in my family for five generations and I have never left it," he said.
Despite modern technology, Büyükaşık's business has always used traditional methods in the garden of his house. His eight children and wife also work with him to produce the silk. "In the past, I used to weave the silks at a bench in the garden of my house. We have improved our business over time and established a big facility next to my house. Along with my eight children and wife, I also employ nine people. Overall, we have produced ropes from nearly six tons of cocoons. We hope this year will be even more productive," he said.
Büyükaşık said they sold most of their products in Turkey, although they exported 20 percent of their products to foreign countries, from the U.S., to Italy, and China.

West 8 Wins Design Competition for Apeldoorn's Market Square
With the design for an iconic market hall, West 8 has won the public vote for a new Market Square in the Dutch city of Apeldoorn. This was announced on the 20th of December in Apeldoorn by Alderman Mark Sandmann.
West 8's redesign transforms the large square into a more intimate, green and pleasant plaza. Part of the redesign is a large wooden canopy that allows for a plethora of programming opportunities throughout the year.
The market hall is positioned on the east side of the square and can serve as a partial covering of the market, fairground or other events such as concerts. The colored glass on the sides create special light effects during both day and night.
By using two tones of pavement, seven large surfaces are created that bring a more human scale to the square. Café terraces are envisaged on the south side of the square. Beneath the existing plane trees, comfortable wooden benches offer views in different directions. By streamlining the surrounding traffic routes, the whole area will profit from increased connectivity.
New trees are added on the east side of the square. Other aspects of the design include an interactive fountain that allows for safe play. Furthermore a seating block will be added, constructed around a large planter for three oak trees.
Alderman Mark Sandmann: "Apeldoorn has voted for the Markthal. I enjoyed a great election week and am already looking forward to the realization of this beautiful Market Square. Considering the number of votes I can certainly say that the new design for our square is widely supported."

Q: GraphQL Data showing in console but doesnt render in React This is not the first time I've encountered this issue with GraphQL, where I will be able to clearly see that the correct data is being fetched by using console.log but it will render nothing in the UI. The last time I had this problem, the issue was that the "id" wasn't included for one of the nested objects. In this case, I've ensured that both exist:
topBattles {
  id
  battlers {
    id
  }
}

If I recall, I was also able to detect that error by console.logging the error that gets returned by UseQuery. In this case, no error is being shown.
In graphiql, I can see that I'm receiving the correct data:

This is all of the code for the React front-end. There's nothing noteworthy, it's calling the same GraphQL query that worked in GraphiQl with the same arguments
function TopBattles() {
  const { loading, data, error } = useQuery(GET_TOP_BATTLES, {
    variables: { battleCount: 5, dateRange: "Weekly" },
  });

  React.useEffect(() => {
    console.log(data);
    console.log(error);
  }, [data]);

  if (loading) return "Loading...";
  return (
    <>
      {data?.topBattles?.length > 0
        ? data.topBattles.map((battle) => {

Foo
;
          })
        : "bar"}
    </>
  );
}

export default TopBattles;

from the console.log above, error returns undefined.
Console.log.data returns the correct data:

Yet for the code:
return (
    <>
      {data?.topBattles?.length > 0
        ? data.topBattles.map((battle) => {

Foo
;
          })
        : "bar"}
    </>
  );

Nothing at all is being rendered. The word "bar" is not even being rendered, which means that it's recognizing that there is an array of data and the data has a length. If I change the code to data?.topBattles?.length > 3 it will render "bar" because the array only has 2 elements in it.

A: What you're missing is the explicit return statement in your arrow function [1]:
return (
    <>
      {data?.topBattles?.length > 0
        ? data.topBattles.map((battle) => {
            return
Foo
; // <== Should have an explicit return
          })
        : "bar"}
    </>
  );

// Implicit return (no {})
()=>
Foo

// Explicit return (with {})
()=> { return
Foo
 }

[1] Arrow Function Body

A: Like Kostas mentioned, you forgot the return statement, however if you're only rendering a single element, I would suggest doing it like:
return (
    <>
      {data?.topBattles?.length > 0
        ? data.topBattles.map
        (
         (battle) =>

Foo

         )
        : "bar"}
    </>
  );

If you don't use the curly braces, you don't need return, this can be applied everywhere.

This gory, gorgeous action game has plenty of flaws, but it will still satisfy your thirst for blood.
Afro Samurai gives fans of the show a pretty good ride, but newcomers will be confused, and probably turned off.
Don't have to be an Afro fan to enjoy this fun game!
Afro's deadly adventure fails to leave a lasting impact.
Artistic visuals, decent gameplay, and often punishing difficulty is a love letter to fans of the anime series.
Awesome atmosphere and more style than most games could hope for. Unique graphics and music. Pick it up jive turkey.
I wanted to love this game, but the difficulty made me hate it.. Its a hard game..
Afro Samurai is a good game, but far, far too short. Great cell shaded graphics and excellent voice overs.

This study examines whether Bitcoin, a digital decentralized currency, can become a viable alternative to fiat currencies. Bitcoin currently does not fulfill the criteria of being a currency because it does not function as a medium of exchange, a unit of account, and a store of value. Bitcoin's biggest obstacle from fulfilling these functions is the price volatility. A GARCH (1,1) model is used to analyze Bitcoin's volatility in respect to the macroeconomic variables of countries where Bitcoin is being traded the most. Bitcoin already behaves similarly to fiat currencies in China, the U.S. and the European Union but not in Japan. There is also evidence that Bitcoin acts as a safe-haven asset in China. The volatility of Bitcoin has been steadily decreasing throughout its lifetime. If it follows the trend of its six years of existence, it will reach the volatility levels of fiat currencies in 2019-2020 and become a functioning alternative to fiat currencies.

The Battle of Roccavione was the last battle of the invasion of the territory of Asti by the Angevine troops from the Kingdom of Sicily. Charles I of Sicily was defeated, and his entire invasion failed. The battle was also the end of the Astigiani participation in the wars of the Guelphs and Ghibellines, and the end of Charles' intervention in the rest of the Italian Peninsula.
2 Battle
Charles I of Sicily had landed in Piedmont to challenge the commune of Asti, who defeated Thomas II of Savoy's army at the Battle of Montebruno and subsequently moved at the conquest of Asti. Charles defeated a coalition of Ghibellines at the Battle of Cassano in 1259, and he was determined to bring down the Astigiani forces that remained. He found an Astigiani force waiting for him at Roccavione, in what is now the province of Cuneo.
Asti had made allies with the Marquess of Montferrat, William VII. He was to lead the army, and his men awaited the Neapolitan army. When the two sides met, the Neapolitans were destroyed. Charles I's campaign in Piedmont, and Italy in general, had failed. He would not set foot in Piedmont again after he left back for Naples.
After the flunked invasion of Piedmont by Charles I, there would be no more war in Asti. However, there were more troubles. Inner struggles for the control of trading and bank enterprises, soon divided the city in factions. The most prominent was that of the powerful bankers of the Solaro family, who, in 1314, gave the city to king Robert of Naples. The free Republic of Asti ceased to exist. In 1339 the Ghibelline exiles recaptured the city, expelling the Solaro and their helpers. In 1342 however, the menace of the Solaro counter-offensive led the new rulers to submit to Luchino Visconti of Milan. Visconti built a citadel and a second ring of walls to protect the new burgs of the city. In 1345, in the Battle of Gamenario, the Ghibelline Astigiani and John II of Montferrat defeated again the Angevine Neapolitan troops. John also ruled over Asti until 1372, but seven years later the city council submitted to Galeazzo II Visconti's authority. The latter in turn assigned it to Louis of Valois, Duke of Orléans.

See you at the movies, Roger.
By SNEARS April 4, 2013 2013 disney film film critic Gene siskel jason patric john simon movie peter o'toole roger ebert savannah college of art and design scad siskel star wars theatre
Enter 2004. The Savannah Film Fest in downtown Savannah, Georgia on the 1st of November. Twelve-thirty in the dry afternoon at the Trustees Theatre, I was lucky enough to attend Citizen Kane, A Shot in Time – Hosted by Roger Ebert. Naturally a sold out venue, Roger invites all to take a journey literally alongside with him in a shot by shot, frame by frame analysis of Citizen Kane. As Roger regards it as a film that keeps revealing itself to the audience, as he has claimed, "Every great film should seem new every time you see it." With that, he turns his podium into a chair and gives the audience the spotlight. In this case, it's the cloak of darkness that permits any anonymous outburst to point out the seams of the film. Its characters, the editing, set production, symbolism and cinematography details aren't safe if they aren't hidden, as all two hours of the film are analyzed and dissected like a med school open forum.
The whole experience gave an excited unity to the theatre, learning and participating as a group while having some laughs along the way. Having Roger admit his own realizations about the film made my experience (as well as everyone else's) that much richer and I honestly felt the same as I would at a thrilling concert – that joyful feeling of, 'This won't happen anywhere else and there's no other place I'd rather be.'
"Every great film should seem new every time you see it."
I think the same goes for Roger and his dedication towards reviewing films. He has led a life witnessing so many stories, so many character identities and their flaws, comedic story arcs and dramatic conclusions, that the wonder never dies. For a man who may not have traveled the world in all its exotic locations, he's been immersed within all types of cinematic storytelling and journeys, good or bad, carrying a good sense of humor along the way. To be the only film critic to get a Pulitzer Prize, he continued to the very end, reviewing 285 films a year despite his physical condition. If you love what you do, you don't work a day in your life.
His name now stands as a true testament towards the appreciation for film as well as a reminder that we should not only enjoy but share the wonder and escape of going to the movies. Rest in Peace Roger.
Now in true fashion of being in a critics seat, I have to show you a clip which (I guess) would be part of Siskel and Ebert's 'greatest hits' compilation. Click on the photo above where you see them defend 'Star Wars' from film critic John Simon, who pretty much looks like a ship captain from the Republic side. It's a fun little throwback debate however my focus is between the 3:00-5:00 minute marks that I think you'll find wild to hear.
One last thing I have to share. While coming out of one of the SCAD Film Fest after-after-parties, walking down a now quiet and dimly lit Broughton Street, my friends and I encounter Roger Ebert and Jason Patric carrying a very joyful, very wasted Peter O'Toole to the next party. How this came to be was God's doing.. and probably what Peter mentioned as a "piss-load of brandy." The result was as hilarious and awesome as you'd expect it to be.

Berlin returns to Brixton
Easy Reader Staff|November 17, 2011
Performing its classics as well as material from a new album, Berlin will perform Saturday at Brixton. Pictured are Chris Olivas, Carlton Bost, Terri Nunn and Dave Schulz. Photo courtesy of Brixton
In 1979, a girl from Baldwin Hills with a love of British music and all things non-mainstream put an ad in Musicians Contact Service asking for a band that was "unique" and "different." Her call was answered. One year later, the girl, Terri Nunn, and her band, Berlin, put out their first single, "A Matter of Time." For the fourth consecutive year, Nunn and Berlin return to South Bay's Brixton for a one-night concert showcasing the band's distinctive electronic sound that has been more than three decades in the making.
Berlin's lineup has evolved over the years. In 1996, Nunn obtained the rights to the band's name, resurrecting it after a prolonged break. In its current iteration, Berlin features Chris Olivas (drums), who joined in 2000, Carlton Bost (guitar), formerly of the group Deadsy, and, the most recent addition, Dave Schulz (keys).
A classically trained pianist, and a former member of both the Goo Goo Dolls and General Public, Schulz came on board in 2007 after the departure of Mitchell Sigman. As Nunn recalls, "He was so excited when he heard Mitchell was leaving. Not because he didn't like him, but because it's a dream job for a keyboard player. It's a keyboard band. He's a star. And he's also a great singer…so, he's just an amazing addition to this band."
From its earliest stages, Berlin patterned itself after European synthesizer music. As the band's lead singer, Nunn has shaped Berlin's sound around her enduring love of electronic and dance music. For the group's upcoming album, which they plan to release next summer, they have recruited Grammy Award-winning production team the Dust Brothers. Nunn, for one, is ecstatic about the collaboration.
"They are so cutting edge electronically that they're pushing my ass to go in new directions that I've never gone in," she says. "And that's what I want…And I'm excited!"
For Saturday's show, attendees can expect to hear a rich mixture of old hits and new ones. Nunn reveals that Berlin will play at least two songs off their upcoming album: an original song called "Break the Chains," and a Grace Slick cover called "Somebody to Love." In addition, the band will also play the winning song from a survey they conducted on their Facebook page. They asked fans which of the old hits no longer in rotation would they like to see re-introduced back into a show set. The winner, "Will I Ever Understand You," comes from Berlin's 1986 album Count Three & Pray, the same album, incidentally, that featured the group's megahit "Take My Breath Away," of Top Gun fame.
Many of Berlin's hits, such as "Metro" and "Sex (I'm a…)," have been reinterpreted by various artists across different genres: Jessica Simpson, Mike Patton, Peaches, and System of a Down, to name just a few. Nunn enthusiastically endorses the newer versions of Berlin songs. "It's just a script that different actors are taking on and interpreting. And I love that!"
When asked to identify what it is that has given Berlin's hits such immense staying power, Nunn is humble. "I have no idea," she marvels. "There is so much magic involved with it."
Berlin performs on Saturday Nov. 19, at Brixton South Bay, 100 Fisherman's Wharf, #J, Redondo Beach. Doors open 7 p.m.; show begins at 8 p.m. Tickets $25. 21 and over only. (310) 406-1931.


Knocknamuckley Parish Church (St Matthias) is irreparably split after the former rector's breakaway church kicked off on Sunday.
Rev Alan Kilpatrick was given carte blanche by Down and Connor Bishop Harold Miller to conduct his style of service at Goodyear Sports and Social Club with around 100 dissidents from Knocknamuckley forming a congregation.
And at Knocknamuckley's traditional Church of Ireland stone building, it was back to pre-Kilpatrick normal as Rev Tom Conway (one of two retired ministers filling in) occupied the pulpit. An estimated 130 attended on Sunday morning, with some returning to the fold after Mr Kilpatrick's departure.
One traditional worshipper said, "It's sad what has happened. Alan's style simply doesn't suit Knocknamuckley, but the church was split by the appointment from the start. The parochial nominators – who worked with Bishop Miller for the appointment - simply made a mistake.
Rev Conway and another retired minister Rev Don Moore will keep things going at Knocknamuckley while they move to appoint a new rector. It will take about a year, as a large proportion of the select vestry has left with Rev Kilpatrick.
Rev Kilpatrick was joined by his wife Jan and two teenage sons at Goodyear as he conducted his modern-type worship.
He spoke of having a heavy heart over what had happened. Mr Kilpatrick will still occupy the Knocknamuckley rectory for another few weeks. He added they had been given the use of the Goodyear premises for free "by a follower of Christ".
He also asked the congregation to thank Bishop Miller personally for his support through the crisis.

Tokyo governor worried by cost of adding new Olympic sports in 2020
Tokyo Gov. Yoichi Masuzoe on Tuesday cautiously welcomed the International Olympic Committee's decision to open up the event to new sports but spoke of anxiety over the costs of providing them in 2020.
Masuzoe said he will have to discuss the possible inclusion of new disciplines with the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee.
In Monaco, the IOC on Monday approved a new framework, scrapping the current cap of 28 sports at the Summer Games and allowing the addition of new pursuits, which could enable the return of baseball and softball, and karate.
Referring to baseball's chances, Masuzoe said Tokyo must first gain international support, as the Japanese professional baseball and U.S. major leagues will be in season during the Olympics.

Kingfisher keeps material flowing for ERF plant
With such strict measures in place to reduce the amount of waste going out to landfill sites disposing of rubbish in a more environmentally friendly manner has never been so important. With each household waste measuring at 1000 tonnes a year, converting such large amounts of waste into re-usable raw material or alternative fuels is quite a challenge for both MRF and ERF plants throughout the UK.
Meeting demand and ensuring an ongoing functional process are all important aims to meet within the recycling industry. Site Maintenance teams are under immense pressure to ensure adequate health and safety, environmental aspects are met but most of all ensuring plants are receiving and processing correct levels of material and remaining within stringent emission levels.
Energy Recovery Facilities have similar activity to incinerators which were introduced back in the 1970's, however todays systems include the latest technologies and are designed to help maximise the efficient generation of heat. Typical process begins with waste brought in by trucks and are dumped into waste disposal chutes, these chutes are expected to hold excessive loads of contaminated waste, and can include a mixture of material such as glass, metals, sharp edged fragments and even food.
Referring to a particular plant in Sheffield, maintenance engineers were approached by Kingfishers technical sales engineer. As part of Kingfisher's service provision, a free on-site visit and consultation is provided to the customer, during which it was apparent as the waste is brought into the tipping hall and dumped into the waste pit, adequate amounts of material failed to flow down the concrete waste chute which further connected into the refuse pit, due to the large tonnages and different characteristics of waste being handled, significant damage was made to the concrete surfaces and dramatically decreased the life of the existing equipment causing it to decay, leaving a rough, uneven and degraded slope.
Causing waste to build up at the entrance and material was manually being pushed further into the pit to allow for a continuous waste flow, so it can be extracted out by a grab and further processed into the incinerator.
Kingfisher are known to have supplied many solutions for the recycling and renewal energy markets. Waste material running through any process plant and equipment can leave transfer points prone to wear and abrasion and restricts key material flow causing build up and blockages or surfaces to degrade.
Kingfisher recommended placing a new chute on top of the existing concrete chute which would not only promote the flow of waste, but would work as a defensive layer to combat varied characteristics of waste being handled. Engineers at the plant were presented with a number of solutions, however the best and most cost effective system recommended was Kingfishers K-FLOW Ferritic system.
The overall project awarded to Kingfisher was to manufacture 2 new waste chutes manufactured from Kingfisher's K-FLOW material at 8mm thick. K-FLOW is specifically suited to applications which require protection from sliding induced abrasion and a key requirement to promote the flow of bulk solids.
Project Manager Peter Philips commented "investing in such a system will be a cost effective solution for the plant and maintenance team going forward, if any repairs are required in the future the plant will experience minimal disruption to the 'downtime' as it will be an easy one liner replacement of the existing K-Flow lining system, which can be carried out in a day, allowing the chute to be brought back online with minimal disruption and additional costs to the client, access and labour"
John Connolly Managing Director stated "There are many applications within EFW plants which require protection against harsh bulk solid, Kingfisher have worked with many OEM's, EPC and End Users supplying the renewable market, therefore have the knowledge, solutions and expertise in providing systems fit for the purpose"

Legislation will reflect desire for 'outcomes based' approach to pharmacy premises standards
The Government has indicated it will go ahead to modify the way that standards for pharmacy premises are regulated. However, there has been no indication of when progress on decriminalising dispensing errors might happen.
Rather than rely on the General Pharmaceutical Council enforcing standards which have been set out in rules, the Government will replace the rules with legislation allowing a 'code of practice' style obligations approach. It means the GPhC will be able to address breaches in premises standards through the Fitness to Practise committee.
"The intention is to avoid a regulatory model which leads pharmacies towards a compliance-driven or checklist approach in meeting its standards," said the Department of Health. In addition, its proposed draft order making the changes will also include provisions around the GPhC publishing inspection reports.
The views are set out in a document summarising responses to the consultation on rebalancing medicines legislation pharmacy regulation. Published by the DoH in collaboration with the health departments of the devolved administrations, the report includes responses to the consultation on how to ensure pharmacy premises standards are maintained, as well as what the Gvernment will take forward.
An "overwhelming majority" of the 159 responses to the consultation supported the proposals, said the DoH. "There was unanimous agreement with the proposals for an outcome based approach to pharmacy premises standards. It was suggested that this approach was even more relevant given the greater the range of services available at a pharmacy."
However, the report has noted that some respondents were concerned that removing 'black and white' rules "could lead to unhelpful variation for employee pharmacists in the way pharmacies choose to meet the standards."
On the issue of prescription collection points, the Department has said: "The sale or supply of a medicine from a pharmacy operating a prescription collection point, which was arranged such that the sale or supply was a lawful transaction, could be regulated by the pharmacy regulators as part of the registration of premises."
Although the consultation also sought views on the decriminalisation dispensing errors, the Department states that a report and draft order on this will be published separately, without giving a likely date.
In a separate initiative, the Pharmacists' Defence Association has raised concerns over Royal Pharmaceutical Society proposals to produce an 'error reporting standard' for pharmacists. Publishing its response to the RPS consultation, the PDA said the prospect of criminal sanction has not been removed, and has called for substantial revisions.
"We ask the RPS to lead an initiative supporting employers to publicise, on a named organisation basis, their aggregated pharmacy incident data (anonymised for individuals)," said the PDA. "We believe this would support broader learning in the public interest and would help employers to focus and devote significantly more time and attention to reducing the risk of pharmacy incidents. It would help employers demonstrate the same candour expected of pharmacists."
It has also called for the Government "to go 'back to the drawing board' to commission work which comprehensively removes the prospect of criminal sanctions for inadvertent dispensing errors. This would help reduce the fear of reporting errors, facilitate learning and improvement and ultimately improve patient safety."

Netflix has decided to take another chance on the Baudelaire orphans.
It's been 10 years since Nickelodeon tried, and failed, to make the beloved book series A Series of Unfortunate Events into a successful movie franchise. While many fans had been looking forward to it, it became an unmitigated disaster, with the focus being more on the cameos and Jim Carrey's slapstick comedy than on the actual plot, diverging from the more serious tone of the books. While it still had the dark moments, and was shot with a very grim air about it, it didn't coincide with the absurdity and wackiness with which Carrey, who played the villain, was trying to portray in Count Olaf.
It seems, however, that Netflix has decided to take another chance on the Baudelaire orphans, and have ordered a series run based on the children's book. As it is a thirteen book series, I can't help but wonder if they may do it with a book an episode but I surely hope not as that would seem too cluttered and rushed, much like the movie which tried to fit the first three books into an hour and a half.
When speaking of the buy, the author, who's real name is Daniel Handler but wrote under the pen name Lemony Snicket, had this to say, in much the same voice as his old writing habit.
After years of providing top quality entertainment on demand, Netflix is risking it's reputation and its success by associating itself with my dismaying and upsetting books.
They have yet to find the right director, so it will be awhile before the series will return to our screens, but in the mean time you could always check them out at your local bookstore or library.

Universal Law
Have you ever had "one of those days" when absolutely everything goes wrong? Have you ever wondered why some people are successful, while others spend their entire lives struggling? Do you ever get the feeling that someone is out to get you because everything you touch goes wrong?
If you're like most people, these thoughts do occur to you from time to time. But what is the answer to these questions? Is it a question of luck, could it be fate or is there something else going on here of which most people are unaware?
The answer is both all around us and within us, and is called Universal Law. Just like there are Natural Laws that govern nature (such as gravity), there are other Laws which govern all that happens in the universe. From the spiritual to the physical to the mental, everything that happens does so according to Law.
You see, the Universe around us is a very orderly place in which nothing occurs by chance. Even though one cannot see the Laws, or hear them, smell them or taste them, they are there. They apply to everything and everyone - nothing is exempt. Whether one is aware of these Laws or not, they still apply - just like the Law of Gravity. Even though one may not be aware of or understand Gravity, it always works. No matter who you are, if you decide to step off the top of a tall building, you will fall at an increasing rate of speed until you reach terminal velocity or until you impact the ground.
So what are these Laws and how do they work? There are literally dozens of Universal Laws that exist, but for ease of understanding, they can be distilled down to a main seven:
1.	Law of Control
2.	Law of Accident
3.	Law of Cause & Effect
4.	Law of Belief
5.	Law of Expectation
6.	Law of Attraction
7.	Law of Correspondence
From these seven, everything else flows. The beauty of the Laws is that once one understands and lives in accordance with them, life becomes extremely simple.
Law of Control
The Law of Control simply states that we have high self-esteem and feel good about ourselves to the exact degree that we feel we are in control of our lives. Unfortunately, the majority of the population does not live according to the Law of Control, but rather by its inverse, the Law of Accident. The truth of the matter is that every one of us is in total control of our life, but until one takes the step to determine that they are personally responsible for what happens to them, then they cannot help but live by Accident.
Law of Accident
This Law states that we feel badly about ourselves and have low self-esteem to the degree that we feel events and circumstances control our lives. In other words, we are the victims of whatever else happens around us. If good things happen, then we benefit, but if bad things happen, we play the victim.
Law of Cause & Effect
This Law is also known as the Iron Law of Human Destiny because it is so profound and powerful. Simply stated, the Law of Cause & Effect says that everything happens for a reason. All actions have consequences, as do all inactions. Distilled down to the simplest possible terms, this law states that for every effect in one's life, there is a specific cause. The law can also be applied in the physical sense through examination of Sir Isaac Newton's third Law of Motion, which states that "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction." If, for example, you were to hold your hand over a candle's flame (the cause) the effect would be that your hand would burn and it would hurt!
The truly wonderful thing about this law is that by definition then, we should be able to manifest that which we truly want (the effect), simply by exerting the same causes that others before us have exerted and been successful.
Law of Belief

Thorgeir Ljosvetningagodi Thorkelsson ( ; Modern Icelandic:  ; born c. 940) was a lawspeaker in Iceland's Althing from 985 to 1001.

In the year 999 or 1000, Iceland's legislative assembly was debating which religion they should practice: Norse paganism or Christianity. Thorgeir, himself a pagan priest and chieftain (a gothi), decided in favour of Christianity after a day and a night of silent meditation under a fur blanket, thus averting potentially disastrous civil conflict. Under the compromise, pagans could still practice their religion in private and several of the old customs were retained. After his decision, Thorgeir himself converted to Christianity. Thorgeir's story is preserved in Ari Thorgilsson's Íslendingabók.

Lily-of-the-valley is a favorite groundcover for woodland gardens as it does well in light to moderate shade and rich slightly acid soil. Delightfully fragrant when they bloom in the spring, they will naturalize to cover a large area with rich green that will last until August in this area.
I like how the tiny bell flowers stand out against the dark green leaves in this painting.


Award winning American author Megan Abbott has written a thriller framed around the complexities of relationships that are quite often borne out of necessity and not affection. Competitors but not necessarily rivals, school relationships that don't survive into adulthood, friendships for a season only.
Blood is a theme that river flows throughout the book, and this is a clinical inclusion to remind us that the inner lives of women are inextricably linked to their physical natures. Whether that dimension is evident or not from the outside, the power of it must be respected and acknowledged.
GIVE ME YOUR HAND plays on a small stage and this adds to the intimate menace of a read that slowly brings the conflict full circle right back to where it started, that being between two people who can't seem to make it fully out of the orbit of each other. Female to female relationships could be the argued to be the most fraught and intense connections that women ever make, regardless of the sphere in which they come to exist.
Keeping it all close and personal, GIVE ME YOUR HAND is a carefully crafted work that drip feeds dread directly into the veins. You will need to commit yourself to the discovery as this book is comprised of a series of measured turns, rather than the relaying of screeching acts of violence. Small deliberate steps to a conclusion that is oddly satisfying. Don't race to the end.

Programming note: Sharks-Bruins coverage gets underway Thursday at 3:30 p.m. with Sharks Pregame Live on Comcast SportsNet California
Editors note: Chat with Sharks Insider Kevin Kurz today at 1 p.m.
BOSTON – It's difficult to try and pinpoint any specific element that is missing from a team that's gone 8-0-1 in its first nine.
But the Sharks' acquisition of tough guy Mike Brown on Monday, in exchange for a fourth round pick to Edmonton, could be viewed as a sign that management isn't thrilled with some of the hits its players have been taking. Dan Boyle and Tomas Hertl were each on the receiving end of dirty checks that resulted in suspensions, but there have been several others, including Tim Jackman's shoulder to the head of Justin Braun on Saturday against Calgary and Antoine Roussel pummeling Matt Irwin in Dallas last Thursday.
Raffi Torres and Adam Burish, who would typically be called upon to respond in those situations or whose presence would help deter such incidents in the first place, are out with long-term injuries. Enter Brown, who joined his new team in Boston on Wednesday, and could help fill the void that Torres and Burish have left.
"It's like playing against Raffi and Burr," Marc-Edouard Vlasic said. "They are fast, play hard, they have a lot of grit and are in your face. Brown does that."
Vlasic continued: "We're missing grit, and they brought in some grit."
Todd McLellan praised that aspect of Brown's game, too, but in today's NHL those types of players have to be able to keep up with the pace of play. Brown can do that, according to the head coach.
"He can move on the ice surface," McLellan said. "He's quick, and he plays a pretty abrasive game. Those are ingredients that we think we need. If he wasn't as quick as he was he might not fit what we want to do, but we think he brings a quickness element, as well."
As for Brown, he voiced his excitement from going to first place San Jose from last place Edmonton, which still can't seem to get is game together and is seventh in the Pacific Division (3-6-1, seven points).
[RELATED: NHL standings]
He figures that the move was made to try and replace what's missing with the Sharks' injury situation.
"I think that's mainly the reason why I'm here," Brown said. "I play the same way, and I've already talked to Todd, and they brought me in here because of how I play. It's that energy role that I play, and what I've done over the years of what they need."
Fighting, too, is at the forefront of Brown's game. The five-foot-11, 202-pounder, a middleweight by NHL standards, finished last season third in the league in penalty minutes with 123. His 13 major penalties were tied for second, as he split the shortened season between Edmonton and Toronto.
"If I need to fight, then I'm there to change the momentum or protect and back up my teammates," Brown said. "I'm a big believer in team toughness, so when something happens to our team, I'm a big believer that everybody should be involved."
Brown's presence alone could help prevent future incidents from occurring, according to some of his new teammates.
"I think everyone on this team plays hard, but there are certain guys when you look at a lineup that you think twice about that you know might be barreling down on you in a corner, or agitating to play against," Tommy Wingels said. "In that sense, his presence will be noticed, and we're looking forward to getting him in the lineup."
Logan Couture said: "Having someone like Brownie, hopefully other guys will think twice before they do that."
McLellan's message to Brown? Don't change a thing, starting on Thursday night against the Bruins.
"Mike Brown obviously has a reputation of being physical and taking care of himself and his teammates. We don't expect him to change his game. When he comes in, he's going to play the same way. And, he does bring that element."
McLellan confirmed that Brent Burns would miss Thursday's game in Boston. Burns also sat out on Monday in Detroit with a facial/dental injury. Freddie Hamilton is likely to remain in the lineup on a line with Joe Thornton and Tomas Hertl.

Windows 8 got a big push tonight during Samsung's Unpacked event, with the company showing off a new "Ativ" series of Windows 8-based gadgets, including a smartphone, tablet, and laptop/tablet hybrid.
BERLIN - Windows 8 got a big push tonight during Samsung's Unpacked event, with the company showing off a new "Ativ" series of Windows 8-based gadgets, including a smartphone, tablet, and laptop/tablet hybrid.
PCMag's Sascha Segan dug a little deeper into the Ativ S Windows Phone smartphone earlier today, but on the tablet front, Samsung offered up the standalone Ativ Tab, as well as the Ativ SmartPC hybrids.
On the outside, the SmartPCs look like your average laptop. But press a button above the keyboard and grip the screen and it will lift away and function as a tablet. A keyboard pops up on the screen for quick notes; you can lock the tablet back into the physical keyboard for longer projects. During an afternoon demo, the SmartPC tablet lifted out rather easily, but during the Unpacked event, a Samsung attendant took pity on me as I struggled to remove it and released it from the cradle for me, so perhaps it depends on the model you get.
There are two versions - the Ativ SmartPC and the Ativ SmartPC Pro. Both feature an 11.6-inch HD display, S Pen integration, and a 60-day free trial of Microsoft Office, but the Pro has a few more tricks up its sleeve. While the SmartPC boasts a 1366-by-768 display, 2GB of RAM, and a next-gen Intel Atom processor, the SmartPC Pro offers up a 1920-by-1080 display, 4GB of RAM, and an Intel Core i5 chip.
The Pro version, according to Damian Cusick, a general manager for Samsung U.K., is "targeted at users who need a bit more power to get through the day."
When locked into the keyboard, the SmartPC functions like any other PC, while the tablet takes advantage of Windows 8 touch capabilities found in the tiled interface formerly known as Metro.
If you don't need the keyboard, the Windows RT-based Ativ Tab might be right up your alley. The 10.1-inch tablet is about 8.9mm thick and weighs 570 grams. It comes pre-loaded with Micosoft Office 2013, and Samsung promised that it will boot up instantly.
Samsung talked up the USB port and uHDMI, which will allow the Ativ Tab to work with accessories like printers, keyboards, projectors, external monitors, and more. In a quick hands on after the Unpacked event, the Ativ Tab was responsive, loading up apps quickly - from Microsoft Word to Samsung's Music Hub.
Windows RT is the version of Windows 8 that is optimized for the ARM-based processors that power the vast majority of tablets and smartphones currently on the market. Microsoft will release a Windows RT version of its own Surface tablet later this year, a move that reportedly irked some of its PC partners. There was no mention of the Surface tonight, however, and Samsung acted as a true-blue evangelist for Windows 8.
"It's an exciting new OS that blends our content and device ecosystem perfectly," said Cusick.
The devices are expected to be released on Oct. 26, when Windows 8 makes its debut. Pricing was not discussed.
The Ativ moniker, meanwhile, is the reverse of Vita, which means "life" in Latin. "[It] is a pledge by Samsung to make everyone's life easier," the company said.

When Jimmy Hazen called his father James in Long Island, N.Y., on Wednesday to tell him he�d won the Massachusetts Open Championship, which was held at Wellesley Country Club, his father told him to call back.
James didn�t do this because he didn�t care about his son�s win, or didn�t believe him. He did it because as of his son�s first call, there were players under par still on the course, and he didn�t want his son celebrating prematurely lest someone made a miraculous comeback.
James� trepidation was well-founded, as Baltimore�s Jeff Castle sank a 40-foot bogey putt on the par-3 17th to remain within a shot of Hazen, but Castle bogeyed the 18th, prompting Hazen to call his father a second time, a call that was more well-received.
Hazen, 28, a mini-tour veteran who now lives in Florida, fired a final-round, 3-under-par 67 to finish the tournament at 6-under, two shots clear of Castle, Jimmy Lytle, Plainville�s James Renner and Shrewsbury�s Scott Hawley.
It�s the second win of Hazen�s career, after winning the New York State Open in 2006. Although Hazen has no local ties, he did have a local cheering section comprised of former Southeastern Amateur winner Ryan Riley and his two children. Riley and Hazen were roommates at Sacred Heart University, and Hazen was Riley�s best man and is the godfather to his daughter Brianna.
Hazen put himself in position to win with back-to-back birdies on the par-4 11th and 12th holes. He bogeyed the par-4 14th, but birdied the par-5 15th to move to 6-under.
Hazen�s win denied Quincy�s Michael Welch the opportunity to win three tournaments in a row, after capturing titles at the Cape Cod and Vermont Opens. Welch shot a final-round 71 and finished tied for ninth with Brockton�s Matt Parziale, who also shot a 71.
Despite being off his game all three days, Welch remained in contention until his final few holes. He eagled the par-5 15th to go to 2-under for the tournament, but bogeyed the 17th and 18th to fall back to even. Welch said that he struggled to find a rhythm with his putter.
�My speed was terrible all week,� Welch said.
Parziale was 3-over through his first three holes after bogeying the par-4 second and double-bogeying the par-4 third, but he played solidly after that, making two birdies and no bogeys.
Putting also factored into the competition for low amateur, as it helped one local player and hindered another.
Brockton Country Club�s Mike Calef had always been a �look at it and hit it� putter, but recently began using alignment aids to make him more accurate. His new practice approach translated into a very steady tournament, as he shot 70 the first two days and 71 on Wednesday to finish tied for 11th, and share low amateur honors with South Hadley�s Richy Werenski. It�s the second time in three years that Calef has earned at least a tie for low amateur at the Mass. Open. He won the title outright in 2008.
�(In 2008) that was one of my first events back as an amateur (after being pro),� Calef said. �I didn�t know what to expect (back then), and I just went out there and played and that kind of happened. Once you do it once, you know what to expect.
Norwell�s Ben Spitz, a former Massachusetts Amateur champion, credited his putting with his first-round 69. Despite shooting another 69 on Wednesday to finish tied for 14th, he said he wasn�t able to regain his first-round form.
Spitz at least won the family competition, beating older brother Brian, who shot a final-round 79 to finish 40th. Thorny Lea Golf Club�s John Hadges also shot a 79 to finish tied for 38th.

Hello, and welcome once again to the Simple Stamping Techniques Blog Hop. Today we are showing you samples using the Side Step Technique used to construct the card. You can achieve many variations of the side step, depending on the measurements you choose to use.
As Easter is fast approaching, I used an Easter theme for my card with images from Fable Friends, by Stampin' Up! You can find this adorable set in the Occasions Catalogue. I teamed this set with the Gingham Gala 6 x 6 inch DSP.
I love water-colouring so it was a obvious to me to use that technique, but I made it simple for myself by using the Stampin' Up! Water Colour Pencils. They are so easy to use and work very well on Stampin' Up! water colour paper.
The first photo shows the method I use for applying the w/c pencil. I leave plenty of white space because the colour will blend.
I stamped the figures using Early Espresso as the outline colour will then form a slight shadow at the edges. It is water based so will dissolve a little when water from an Aqua Painter is added.
I fussy cut out the images with using my Stampin' Up! paper snips, and used the Stitched Rectangle Framelit dies to create a little interest around the edges of the background paper.
@ 2.5cm, 5cm, 8cm and 16cm.
Cut from 2.5cm mark to 16cm mark 9cm in from Right Hand Side.
I hope you've enjoyed this card. You can find the products used in my Store.
It is now time to follow the links to the next sample of a Side Step Card. Enjoy hopping!
