Although they were once native to the state, elk haven't roamed free in South Carolina for nearly 300 years. That is, until Clark came along. About a year ago, a bull elk from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park made headlines when he crossed into South Carolina and started visiting local neighborhoods. Eventually, the rogue elk, known as Clark, was captured by the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources and relocated to Charles Towne Landing, a nature center in Charleston.
Here in the Smokies, we've been closely following Clark's adventures in South Carolina. After all, he's still a local boy, even if he did run off to the big city! The Knoxville-based news station WBIR recently caught up with Clark in Charleston to find out what he's been up to.
Before he set off on his own, Clark was likely one of the elk that lived in Cataloochee Valley in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Comprised of around 200 elk, this herd was formed when scientists reintroduced the species to the area in 2001. Elk were once native to the Smokies, but hunting and habitat loss drove them to local extinction in the 1800s.
So, what convinced Clark to leave his home in the national park? While we don't know for sure, experts suspect that he was forced out of the herd by older and more aggressive bulls. With few prospects in the Smoky Mountains, Clark headed south in search of greener pastures.
Ultimately, Clark's freewheeling antics in the Upcountry came to an end when he was shot with a tranquilizer dart by biologists working for the state's Department of Natural Resources. Although Clark never hurt anyone in his travels, as a wild bull elk, he had the potential to inadvertently cause serious damage to people who may approach him.
During his time on the lam, Clark lost his fear of people, which meant that it was unsafe for him to return to the wild. So, instead of being sent back to the Smoky Mountains, Clark was given a new home at the Charles Towne Landing nature center where he lives in a large open area that is surrounded by a fence.
Although the residents of Upstate South Carolina had taken to calling him Prancer (because he reminded them of Santa's reindeer), the team at Charles Towne Landing dubbed him Clark, in honor of the noted explorer William Clark (of Lewis and Clark fame). There is no question that our intrepid young elk has the heart of an explorer!
Today, Clark lives a happy life in the Lowcountry. He has adjusted well to his new environment, growing a full rack of antlers, gaining weight, and eating lots of grass, grains, figs, dates, and apples. Clark isn't lonely either, as he has a small herd of buffalo to keep him company.
While Clark has retired to Charleston, there are still plenty of other elk to be seen in the Smoky Mountains! As mentioned above, the national park's elk live in Cataloochee Valley, which is a popular day trip destination for vacationers staying in Gatlinburg. Elk are typically most active in the early morning and late evening. The park mandates that visitors stay at least 150 feet away from wildlife at all times, so binoculars and telephoto lenses are great tools for elk viewing.

Fear(s) Of The Dark (2007)
Chris Perkins October 31, 2016 animation, anthology, Halloween, Horror, reviews, reviews movies
When you think of the emotions that animation is effective at bringing out in audiences, what do you think of? Joy, perhaps- or even sadness might come to mind. Fear is probably quite a long way down the list, but if you think about it animation has a long tradition of giving people the willies. After all, who doesn't have a childhood memory of a cartoon villain or a creepy moment that gave them nightmares growing up?
Fear(s) Of The Dark is a French animated anthology (originally titled Peur(s) Du Noir) that explores the different kinds of fears that can plague us all. The hour and twenty-something minute running-time comprises several different tales, made by various filmmakers all united by this theme.
The segments employ a variety of techniques, including a CG cel-shaded style. a more anime-influenced 2D look, and even a hand-drawn, cross-hatched pencil effect. All the segments, however, are united by a stark monochromatic look. This decision to make (almost) the whole film in black and white is a smart one, as it gives the whole film something of a connecting thread that is not always present in anthology films.
The structure of the film is also a little unusual. While for the most part, the segments are distinct stories, one after another, there is also a pair of stories that are returned to time and time again. The film does not go as far as using a wraparound story connecting the segments (as used in Extraordinary Tales) but these two shorts serve a similar function.
As is so often the case in anthology films, some segments are more effective than others- both visually and in storytelling. The weakest (from writer and director Pierre di Scullio) features a woman being interviewed about her fears, with the voiceover accompanied by abstract imagery. Unfortunately, this is also one of the repeated entries, meaning that it quickly outstays its welcome.
In middling territory, the first full-length tale (directed by Charles Burns) is made in a visually arresting 3D monochrome cel-shaded-style CG. It tells a creepy tale of a socially awkward young man with an insect obsession. When he reaches adulthood has a romantic encounter with a woman that takes a rather unusual turn.
More impressive is the 2D anime-styled entry from writer Romain Slocombe and director Marie Calliou, featuring a schoolgirl in rural Japan. The contrast of the cutesie character designs with the dark storyline and imagery (based on Japanese folktales) is creepily effective.
Best of all though is the genuinely unnerving entry from writer-director Blutch- brought to life in traditional animation using (or at least appearing to use) pencil sketches. In this repeated segment, a sinister old geezer (dressed in what appears to be full undertaker garb) wanders an unknown landscape with four vicious hellhounds. This is one of the segments which is returned to, and only becomes more terrifying each time.
The other segments fall somewhere inbetween- pretty effective horror stories that don't quite reach the heights of the best stuff here.
The film works best when the film-makers are confident enough to let the visuals (and the sound effects and music) convey the horror alone. When it does this, the film is often genuinely unsettling. Elsewhere, though, there is an over-reliance on dialogue, with a narrator telling us the story as it unfolds. It's probably a deliberate attempt to capture the experience of being told a scary story, but it doesn't quite pull it off. Perhaps something has been lost in translation (this is a subtitled film after all), but really this could have been improved by sticking to the old adage "show don't tell" more often.
As an overall experience, Fear(s) Of The Dark still manages to just about hold it together. Although some of the sections are not nearly as memorable as others, as a single package it provides plenty of chills that you might well find manage to get under your skin.
If you're looking for a decent slice of animated horror then this should fit the bill just fine. Turn the lights out and draw the curtains and settle in for some spine-chilling fun.
FEAR(S) OF THE DARK is available on DVD in the UK FROM METRODROME and on DVD and VOD from MPI in the US.

Jelly Legs: the new London-based club night on the first weekend of freedom
It's been a devastating past 18 months for the nightlife industry. Since the the onslaught of the coronavirus pandemic in early 2020, the hospitality sector has seen its doors sealed shut. Parties, promoters and punters have seen their honest endeavours slashed by the restrictions, with a spread of clubs, bars and cafes closing for good due to financial turmoil.
As the so-called 'freedom day' approaches, those around the world who have so dearly missed their local sonic haunts will be dusting off their club clobber to venture into the ether once again. The first weekend that lands in our new and open world order will be rife with options, and we think Jelly Legs is the party that you should go to.
Jelly Legs is a new event arriving in Brick Lane on July 24th, hosted at the conjoined Café 1001 & Werkhaus throughout the evening and night. Manned by duo Will Wallace and Ed Tomlinson, the party will showcase a diverse mammoth lineup full of chug-fetishists and cosmic groovers. If you like a dose of Andrew Weatherall with your cup of tea in the morning, then Jelly Legs is here with a weekend's supply of the stuff.
The event "creates and encourages an inclusive and open minded dance floor where everyone is welcome and free expression is encouraged" says Tomlinson, who professes that the open-mindedness of England's acid house era is something to be inspired by.
"The birth of acid house was as much about breaking down barriers and the freedom to express yourself as it was the music and these values seems to have been forgotten as club culture has developed over the years. When you look at the values of many legendary club nights around the world one of the common denominators (aside from a quality music policy) is their welcoming attitude to everyone."
What makes Jelly Legs stand out is its combination of acclaimed DJs and those earlier in their career. Tomlinson goes on to say:
"Whilst discussing the finer details of Weatherall and Smagghes b2b at Barbarellas or Harvey opening with Le Club Un Fait Divers et Rien de Plus (Billy Woods epic 40 min version), we established that there was a space for a new club night where we could mix emerging underground talent with established artists, encouraging new music and giving new DJ's a chance to share the stage with the establishment. Everyone seems to like the idea so we thought fuck it…let's give it a shot."
With this combination of talent in mind, Jelly Legs goes further, professing itself as an 'intergenerational splish splash'.
"Age is definitely an important part of the event – it's almost an unrecognised diversity issue. In recent years, the 45+ demographic has grown in importance as children are fleeing the nest and parents are heading back out to dance." says Ed.
With over 20 years between them, Wallace and Tomlinson themselves push this ethos. Will told us:
"It's not just inter-generational in terms of the crowd, but also those involved in bringing it to life: not just Ed & I, and the music line up, but also the flyer which featured the legend graphic designer Julian House on one side, and emerging writer Will McCartney from Noise Narrative with a poem about muscle memory on the flip. I've admired Julian's work for a while now, so to have him do our creative design is a real honour, I'm also very excited to see where Will M's words take him."
The flyer for the party was designed by Julian House, whose CV is unrivalled in the industry. House has done album artwork for Oasis, created campaigns for John Coltrane, Primal Scream, Gil Scott-Heron and Annie Lennox, co-directed music videos for The Rolling Stones, The Pet Shop Boys and The Prodigy, and designed book covers for Leonard Cohen, Will Self and Hunter S. Thompson.

The combination of two music tastes of those stationed in different generations can have a powerful impact, and this runs true for the Jelly Legs party according to Tomlinson:
"We both have a very common music taste but bring different influences to what will be the Jelly Legs music policy: we wrote down a list of artists that we wanted to pair up with each other and probably 60% were the same and the remaining 40% were new to each other which was great".
When deciding who to include in the lineup for the debut event, the pair reached an equilbirium quite quickly. From the more experienced, legend side of the bill, inspiration played a large part:
"We seemed to quickly agree on who we wanted involved in the launch party (and the next few events in the pipeline!).
From the established artist side of things Richard Sen is a personal DJ & production hero for me, pure quality and such a deep knowledge of music. He served up an absolute masterclass DJ mix at the ShelterMe festival in December and so we had to have him on the bill in a real venue."
(Read our interview with Richard here.)
Richard Sen has an acclaimed history in both music and art
Andrew Weatherall collaborator Duncan Gray also features, as well as John Paynter of Paisley Dark and good friend & late addition Jamie Tolley.
Emerging talent was no different, with Wallace's links to FINA Agency proving vital in the program:
"On the emerging talent team Tia Cousins & Oscar Abdullah who play b2b as Evening Mass are flying the flag. Tia has just been picked up by the FINA agency and is warming up Room 1 Fabric with Overmono and Blawan when the night is rearranged, Oscar is part of Phonica with an amazing record collection, they are both ones to watch over the coming years."
(Read our interview with Evening Mass here.)
In addition to Evening Mass, Jelly Legs welcomes Matt Hum of the famed Golden Lion pub in Todmorden. The venue, which is owned by Matt's father, has alumni including the likes of Jarvis Cocker, Weatherall and Mr Scruff.
(Read our interview with Matt here).
Together, the group of artists are set to offer a varied and diverse range of sounds and styles, and this is bolstered by the fact that multiple sets are in the event's ammunition:
"Some of the line up will be doing two quite different sets on the 24th, so it will be interesting to see them switch it up."
In truth, starting a new venture during an uncertain time like today is a bold statement, with a range of unwalked paths lying ahead. This is, though, clear testament to the tenacity of the Jelly Legs team, who clearly have an agenda for the coming months. Their commitment to creating a safe space is what makes this party a complete offering.
Wallace admits "It is exciting to be organising an event on the first weekend with no distancing, but we also must be conscious that this virus is not going away, so highly encourage everyone to take precautions to make sure we're all staying as safe as possible".
"The venue has cap of 330, but we're going to slam the breaks on at 200 to give some breathing room, shoulder to shoulder feels a bit much right now. The second room is also big and airy with an outdoor space."
"We strongly advise people to:
Get yourself double vax
Do tests before and after
Stay at home if you're not feeling right
Look out for each other "
For more information on COVID advice, you can head to the NHS website here.
As "freedom day" approaches, it is important to be respectful and safe when in large groups. It is, however, also important that we are all able to enjoy ourselves within the nightlife landscape and give back to the venues, promoters and artists who have been so heavily affected by the last 18 months.
If you're looking for the perfect way to action this motive, Jelly Legs may just be the one for you.

El toda és una llengua dravídica coneguda pel seu gran nombre de fricatives i vibrants. És parlat per la gent del poble toda, aproximadament mil persones que viuen a les Muntanyes Nilgiri de l'Índia del sud. El Toda es desenvolupava del antic tàmil-kannada.

Sons

Vocals
En comparació amb les altres llengües dravídiques, els setze vocals que posseeix el toda són un número molt gran. Hi ha vuit vocals diferents, els quals poden ocórrer en forma llarga o curta. Hi ha poca diferència de qualitat entre les formes llargues i curtes, excepte /e/, que es pronuncia  quan és curt i quan és llarg es converteix en .

Consonants
El toda té un número elevat de fricatives i vibrants. Té set punts d'articulació, més que qualsevol altra llengua dravídica. Les laterals sordes són veritables fricatives i no aproximants sordes. El seu so retroflex lateral també és rar entre les llengües del món.

Les fricatives sordes es sonoritzen al·lòfonicament en posició intervocàlica. Hi ha també fricatives sonores que són invariables: /ʒ, ʐ, ɣ/, encara que l'últim és rar. Les nasals i els sons /r̠, ɽ͡r, j/ al·lòfonicament els converteixen en sords, completament o parcialment, quan es troben en posició final o al costat de consonants sordes.

Aquestes consonants poden ocórrer totes en posició final i dins la paraula. Tanmateix, només un conjunt restringit pot aparèixer al principi. Es tracta dels sons /p, t̪, k, f, s̪, m, n̠, r̘, l̪, j, w/.

A diferència de les altres consonants dentals,  és interdental. De manera semblant,  és labiodental mentre que les altres labials són bilabials.

Les consonants apicals poden ser alveolars o postalveolars. És incert quina diferència hi ha realment entre  i  . Tenen el mateix lloc d'articulació, però se suposa que tenen llocs d'articulació secundaris que són distints.

Els retroflexos són subapicals. El so  és el so ròtic que vibra més fortament que els altres.

Many types of plants are grown from stem cuttings - including trees, shrubs, climbers, roses, conifers, herbaceous perennials, fruit, herbs, indoor plants and half-hardy perennial bedding plants. It is usually a very quick and successful method as most plants root very easily, many in a matter of weeks.
Even so, not every cutting will root successfully, so always take a few more than you need.
Until the cutting has rooted, it relies on the food reserves stored within the stem and leaves, plus food produced by the leaves (if present) through photosynthesis.
This has a bearing on the age and size of the stem used - the bigger the cutting (both length and width) the more food is stored and so the longer it can survive before rooting. The more leaves it has, the more food it can generate, but as plants lose water through their leaves, the greater the leaf area the more water it will lose, leading to a greater risk of drying out before rooting. So you have to make a judgement between the size of the cutting and its total leaf area. This comes with experience and a bit of trial and error.
Softwood cuttings are at the greatest risk of both drying out and rotting before rooting. This means you need to get them to root as quickly as possible by controlling the environment with heated propagators and close-fitting covers or similar protection. Hardwood cuttings are more mature, have greater food reserves, are less prone to drying out and rotting, and so can be rooted with less protection.
Cuttings need a balance of heat/warmth (particularly in the rooting medium), bright but indirect light, high humidity and adequate ventilation. If the environment is too warm and/or too dark the cuttings will grow tall and spindly. If it is too dry they will wilt, but if the compost is kept too wet or the atmosphere is too humid they may rot.
Although high humidity is important for most softwood cuttings, there are one or two exceptions – notably Chrysanthemum and Pelargonium, plants with furry leaves and succulents, which prefer a drier atmosphere and prefer good ventilation without close-fitting covers around their foliage.
The vast majority of stem cuttings are nodal cuttings – the stem is cut immediately below the swelling just below an axillary bud and leaf – the node.
Internodal cuttings are taken at a position between two nodes (the internode). This method can be used for more mature, woodier stems, as they are stronger and less likely to rot, and for Clematis.
Some plants are more difficult to root than others and you may need to take different types of stem cuttings at various times of the year. However, it is possible to help rooting of difficult plants by trying different methods.
Using a hormone rooting powder or gel may improve rooting success, but they are not miracle cures and may have no effect.
Some difficult plants respond well to wounding the stem by removing a thin, vertical sliver of bark up to 2.5cm (1in) long at the base of the cutting. Then dip the wound in hormone rooting compound.
Cut the leaves of large-leaved plants, such as Hydrangea, in half horizontally as this reduces the leaf area and so reduces water loss.
Other plants root better when removed from the parent plant with a small amount of main stem or 'heel'.
Although some plants should be propagated at a specific time of year using a specific method, there are others that can be rooted from cuttings at just about any time of year. If the plant has produced sufficient growth, take the cutting and try and root it. If this is not successful, then you can always try again during a different season with a different method.
Take cuttings early in the morning when they are full of water (turgid) to avoid excessive wilting. Place them in a damp plastic bag, sealed to maintain humidity. Damp cotton wool placed in the bag will also reduce water loss. If the cutting material cannot be prepared immediately, place the bag in the salad drawer of the fridge; they can be kept here for up to 24 hours, but it is far better to use them well before then.
There are four main types of stem cuttings – softwood, greenwood, semi-ripe and hardwood - together with several other useful variants on these listed below. They are taken at different times of the year, depending on when the necessary plant material becomes available and, consequently, from different types of stem growth. Evergreens can be treated with any of these methods.


Saute green onions in a skillet coated with cooking spray until tender; remove from heat.
Stir in apple and next 5 ingredients; set aside.
Prepare pork loin for stuffing. Spread apple mixture over flattened pork loin, leaving a ½ inch border; rll up pork loin, jellyroll fashion, starting with long side.
Tie rolled loin. Place on a rack coated with cooking spray; place rack in a shallow roasting pan. Coat loin with cooking spray; sprinkle with Italian seasoning and ¼ teaspoon salt.
Bake covered, at 350 for 1 hour and 5 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 160. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
Whisk cornstarch and next 3 ingredients in a small heavy saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly. Boil, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Serve with stuffed pork loin. Garnish, if desired.
Note: To prepare pork loin for stuffing, slice pork loin lengthwise down the center, cutting to, but not through the bottom. Starting from center cut, make a horizontal cut toward 1 side, stopping ½ inch from edge.
Repeat on opposite side. Unfold loin so that it is flat.
Flatten loin evenly to about a 12x8 inch rectangle using a meat mallet or rolling pin.
After stuffing and rolling, tie the loin at 2 inch intervals with heavy string or kitchen twine. Be sure to bake seam side down.

Where To Get Lipslut's Notorious RBG Lipstick & Give Back To Women's Rights Organizations
By Bella Gerard
Associate Justice of the Supreme Court Ruth Bader Ginsburg is nothing short of iconic, and she's become somewhat of a symbol and spokeswoman for women kicking ass and taking names everywhere. And with so many people raving about On The Basis Of Sex, the new film based on her early career, her popularity is at an all-time high — so what better way to honor her than with a fantastic lipstick? If you haven't seen the RBG Lipstick from Lipslut, I'm sorry in advance, because you're most definitely about to drop $20 on it, because you need it. We all need it. RBG is an advocate for women's rights, and I myself am an advocate for great lip products, and in this new release we can both rejoice.
If you haven't heard of Lipslut, it's a creative, ballsy brand self-described as selling "socially conscious cosmetics," and pretty much every product it releases is met with an abundance of both hype and controversy. Some people are delighted, and some are enraged, but regardless, they always manage to get everyone talking, so they're doing something right. In the past, the brand has released lipsticks with names like "F*ck Trump," "F*ck Kavanaugh," and "F*ck Hollywood," always donating 50 percent of sales to charities. This time around, it has released a lipstick not against a well-known person, but in favor of one: everyone's favorite, Ruth Bader Ginsburg herself.
When Lipslut began creating the formula for the Notorious R.B.G. Matte Liquid Lipstick ($20, lipslut.com), it knew that the right shade should be left up to the women RBG has inspired most to decide. With this in mind, the brand created a survey on its Instagram Stories and allowed customers to pick the perfect RBG-inspired hue, and landed on what the brand describes as a "brilliant, bad b*tch berry." RBG herself doesn't really wear a ton of bright lipsticks, but the bold hue represents a bold determination and dedication to enhancing women's rights. Plus, it's a shade that will look incredible on practically everybody.
Notorious R.B.G.
LipSlut
I have to use my imagination, but I just know RBG would slay in this shade. Someone get her a tube ASAP:
Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images News/Getty Images
The best part about this lippie? In addition to a vegan, cruelty-free formula, 50 percent of sales will be donated to organizations that support RBG's ethos of equality. Upon checkout, shoppers will have the opportunity to vote for the charity of their choosing, some of which include Equal Rights Advocates and She Should Run. Lipslut doesn't just create fab products that make a difference — it really allows customers to get involved and be a part of the good work the company does. Giving customers a say in where their money is donated is such a wonderful idea.
There's no word yet on if RBG herself has seen the lipstick, but whether or not she thinks she'd suit a "bad b*tch berry," I'm sure she'd love the concept. What's more innovative and empowering than using makeup sales to help move forward the fight for equality? Fingers crossed Lipslut has already sent her a tube, and if you want to snag one for yourself, head over to its site and place an order now. All products are currently available for pre-order, and shipping will begin towards the end of March. Worth the wait, if you ask me.

matzo
Amazingly delicious matzo, just in time for Passover
By Annaliese Griffin
Mar. 27, 2017 | Updated Jun. 21, 2017 at 10:54 am
Last spring Matzo Project matzo was in three stores and sold out in a matter of hours. Now they're all over the country, including at Eataly. Photo: Matzo Project
Passover this year begins on the evening of Monday, April 10 with seder. That's two weeks away, and whether you're an Orthodox traditionalist seeking out shmurah matzo for your Passover plate, or looking for a delicious Kosher-but-not-fully-Kosher-for-Passover alternative, you're in luck. There are better matzo options than the supermarket stuff out there for you.
Brought to the forefront by young Jewish chefs like Yotam Ottolenghi and Michael Solomonov, who wrote the wonderful cookbook Zahav, Jewish cuisine is thriving right now, from dishes like brisket and matzo ball soup that are Eastern European in origin, to the vegetable and spice-heavy cuisine of Israel. Last spring Dan Barber, chef and local food advocate, had a long essay in The New York Times about what goes into making shmurah matzo. Around the same time The Matzo Project released a tiny batch of their delicious matzo to three stores in Brooklyn and Manhattan. It sold out within hours.
New York has seen Mile End Deli, Black Seed Bagel, Frankel's and Seed and Mill Halvah and Tahini flourish over the past few years. Since their trial run for last Passover, The Matzo Project has blossomed into a full-blown business that has matzo and matzo chips on the shelves of stores in nearly two dozen states, and available for sale online, in plain (yes, there's salt), everything and cinnamon and sugar. "We have scaled up and we're ready to take on the pita chip." says Matzo Project co-founder Ashley Albert.
Staying Kosher, but not Kosher-for-Passover (which would exclude salt and other flavorings), The Matzo Project joins Vermatzah, a Vermont-based matzo company that refers to their product as "eco-kosher" in a market that seems to have been underserved, judging from the enthusiastic reception.
It's not just that we've reached such a fever pitch with food that we're fascinated by the minutiae of even an item that traditionally has been most remarkable for its blandness. Matzo has the ability to simultaneously function as a delicious cracker at your cocktail party and as a symbol of Jewish history and culinary heritage. Try to achieve that with a box of Triscuits.

Albert is perhaps the biggest advocate of the idea that matzo should become your new favorite cracker. "When I have a party, I get a pita chip for the hummus, a tortilla chip for the guacamole and a water cracker for the goat cheese, but you can use a matzo chip with ALL THREE," she says. After last spring's success, Albert and co-founder Kevin Rodriguez headed to the Fancy Food Show where they were inundated with orders. They then spent months finding a bakery with a direct-fire oven. Most commercial facilities use a convection oven for even heat, but uneven heat is exactly what gives matzo those brown bubbles that make matzo, matzo, says Albert. They're now baking their crackers and chips at a facility in Sunset Park, with plans to add matzo ball soup mix, which will be vegan and all-natural ("It was ridiculously challenging to make that happen," says Albert), as well as a variety of chocolate covered matzos to their product line later this year.
Albert and Rodriguez hope to liberate matzo from its place as a seasonal-only food, and plan to have their chips, crackers and other items on shelves year-round. Albert said that she had recently gone to a party where the hostess served a bag of her chips alongside a wide variety of other snacks, with no instructions. "She didn't decant them into a bowl and it was fascinating to see what people did with them," Albert says. Guests used the matzo for scooping up everything from guacamole to bean salad, to pairing with cheddar cheese.
Unlike the salt-loving Matzo Project products, Kosher-for-passover or shmurah matzo is made only from water and flour (acceptable flours include wheat, spelt and kamut). It must be unleavened to represent the Jews' flight from Egypt, which took place with such haste that their bread did not have time to rise. This requires either a separate oven or a ritual cleansing of an oven in which leavened bread has been baked, prior to matzo production.
I purchased a box of shmurah matzo from Lubavitch Matzah Bakery in Crown Heights to sample the traditional version. You really notice the lack of salt when you eat it plain, but with anything only top, like hummus or goat cheese, it is a surprisingly great, if slightly shatter-prone, cracker. Jayne Cohen, Jewish food historian and matzo lover, said that after touring a shmurah bakery, and sampling matzo straight from the oven, she started adding olive oil and salt, and maybe a little rosemary at home, and then popping them back in a hot oven for a few minutes. "They were delicious, very hot, wheaty and toasty," she says. "So now I heat them up for better flavor. It's a very elemental cracker, just flour and water."
While the concept of matzo as a cracker, and a flavored one at that, is new to the U.S. market, Cohen says that's old news to the French.
"In France there is a mazto maker that is 100 years old, Paul Heumann, that makes unleavened crackers for everyday use from kamut and spelt, with flavorings like tomato and chestnut," says Cohen. "You can find it in the big food section of the department store Bon Marche, and in the cracker department at the grocery story. The French food blogger Piment Oiseau, made an hors d'oeuvres that she called 'tres girlie' using their pink matzo, which is flavored and perfumed with beet juice, plus fromage frais and pineapple chutney."
As a physical manifestation of the Jewish diaspora, matzo takes many forms around the world, including softer versions that use more water and come out more like flatbread than crackers, often found in Sephardic and other non-Ashkenazi traditions, Cohen says. Traditionally, matzo was only eaten during Passover, and was usually handmade by poor women or widows as way to earn a living. The process became mechanized in the early 20th century as companies like Manischewitz and Goodman's Matzo, which started out in Pennsylvania and then moved to New York City, started to produce it in factories.
"Once it was made in quantity it became more of a year-round product," says Cohen. "Goodman noticed that people would buy extra boxes to keep after holidays." It was this surplus that led to familiar Jewish comfort foods like matzo ball soup and matzo brei. Italian Jews have long made a lasagna using matzo moistened with water or stock in place of noodles (there's even a Martha Stewart version), and mina, a vegetable and matzo pie from Sephardic cuisine, has found its way onto Gwyneth Paltrow's menu. A chocolate-caramel matzo crunch has become a popular unleavened Passover treat–The Matzo Project is also working on a s'mores-inspired treat with chocolate and marshmallow.
The possibilities for matzo stretch beyond the culinary.
Shmurah matzo is made in accordance with strict Orthodox rules.
Cohen says that some Christian congregations use it as the Eucharist, in the belief that it most closely approximates bread that Jesus would have eaten. She also noted that when Manischewitz was founded in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1888, their customers were not limited to the Jewish community. "It was a great substitute for hardtack," she says. "Many non-Jews took it on pioneer-type trips into the West because it couldn't go bad." Some modern day preppers also stock up on matzo because of its longevity on the shelf–or in the fallout shelter.
Cohen assured us that although matzo is a food that is part of the ritual of Passover Seder, there are no rules forbidding non-religious consumption that she is aware of.
Albert says that in the process of researching and learning to bake matzo, she, as a mostly non-observant Jew, found a new sense of community, which while not religious in nature feels important to her. "I reconnected to Judaism in an interesting way that I didn't anticipate," she says. She suggested that the recent resurgence of Jewish delis in New York City is about celebrating tradition and identity through food, in an inclusive way. "It's so surprising," she says. "This is not particularly glamorous food."
Cohen echoed that sentiment, "Food tells the story of Jewish history and life, and it's wonderful thing to share with other people, whether they share the religion or not," she says. "People who dismiss what you might call 'kitchen Judaism,' that's ridiculous. Religion is a celebration of life and finding your own way to celebrate life with food is wonderful."

AIA Engineering has registered 27% growth in its consolidated sales for the quarter ended Dec 2018 to Rs 726.44 crore. Higher sales together with 50 bps expansion in operating profit margin (OPM) facilitated 30% growth at operating profit to Rs 165.23 crore. After accounting for lower other income and lower depreciation (as %of OP) the growth at PBT was restricted at 22% to Rs 170.53 even while the interest cost (as %of OP) marginally stand lower. Hit further by higher taxation, the PAT was up by 11% to Rs 129.22 crore. With non controlling interest (NCI) stand lower by 28% to Rs 0.27 crore the net profit before OCI was up by 11% to Rs 128.96 crore. As other comprehensive expense (OCI) jump by 178% to Rs 38.55 crore, the total comprehensive income was down by 12% to Rs 90.41 crore. But for higher taxation and higher other comprehensive expenses the bottom-line would have registered a growth.
Production volume for the quarter was higher by 34% to 74619 Mt and that of sales were up by 15% to 59235 MT. Higher sales volumes together with higher unit realisation (up 9% to Rs 118208.29/MT) the operational income (excluding other operating income) for the quarter was higher by 26% to Rs 700.21 crore.
Value of production for the quarter was up by 41% to Rs 812.91 crore and sales for the quarter was about 89.45 of value of production. Sale for corresponding previous period was about 99.6% of value of production of that period. Sales for the quarter lower than value of production reflects inventory build up which will get liquidated going forward.
Other operating income was up by 66% to Rs 26.23 crore. Other operating income is fully made of export benefits. Thus overall sale was up by 27% to Rs 726.44 crore.
The 50 bps expansion in OPM to 22.7% was largely due to rise in material cost. Material cost as proportion to sales (net of stocks) was up by 480 bps to 43.6%. The staff and OE were lower by 110 bps (to 3.8%) and 200 bps (to 32.8%) respectively.
Other income was down by 10% to Rs 28.92 crore. Thus the growth at PBIDT was restricted at 22% to Rs 194.16 crore. The interest cost up by 87% to Rs 2.03 crore and as % of OP it was up at 1.2% compared to 0.9% in the corresponding previous period. Depreciation was up by 21% to Rs 21.59 crore but as % of OP it was down at 13.1% compared to 14.1% in corresponding previous period. Thus the PBT was up by 22% to Rs 170.53 crore.
Taxation was up by 76% to Rs 41.31 crore and the tax rate was higher at 24.2% for the quarter compared to 16.8% in corresponding previous period. And thus the growth at PAT moderated and stood at 11% to Rs 129.22 crore.
Sales was up by 28% to Rs 2182.28 crore but with 20 bps contraction in OPM, the operating profit was up by 27% (to Rs 468.62 crore). After accounting for higher other income, higher interest (as proportion to OP) and lower depreciation (as proportion to OP) the PBT was up by 31% to Rs 504.15 crore. The taxation was up by 58% to Rs 148.61 crore and thus the PAT was up by 22% to Rs 355.54 crore. Eventually the total comprehensive income was up by 21% to Rs 335.13 crore after accounting for lower NCI (down 27% to Rs 0.52 crore) and higher other comprehensive expenses (up 39% to Rs 19.89 crore).
Order book at the start of Jan 1, 2018 was Rs 668 crore.
Total capital outlay for Grinding Media, Mill Liners and Wind Turbine will be Rs 800 crore in which Rs 336 crore during F.Y. 2018-19 & remaining during F.Y. 2019-20. Capex incurred till nine months-FY 2019: Rs 156 crore.

FORTUNE AND GLORY: 1984 Steven Spielberg on Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I tried my best to get Steven Spielberg to consent to an interview for this series. I pestered the poor people at his office for at least 6 months (I'm not exaggerating), but it just wasn't meant to be, sadly. The man is a little busy and Temple of Doom isn't his favorite. I'm a little bummed, but I get it.
Honestly, as much as I wanted to get him on record for this series I also kind of wanted to make my argument that this movie he made is better than he gives it credit for to the man himself. You know, play Short Round to Spielberg's Indiana Jones and wake him up from his own personal black sleep of Kali.
When it became apparent that I wasn't going to lock in Spielberg I was a little stuck. How can you run a week-long celebration of a big blockbuster movie from one of the most famous directors ever and not have that director's voice included?
The thought hit me that the only thing better than modern day Spielberg talking about the movie is 1984 Spielberg talking about the movie, so I went on the hunt for interviews from 1984 and hit he motherload when I dug up the Temple of Doom issue of American Cinematographer.
It took all of my willpower not to just reprint that interview in full, it's that good. Not only is Spielberg his typical conversational self (always a huge help to any interview), but he's fired up about the movie. This is before the negativity surrounding the violence knocked his enthusiasm back. Sure, he's selling it, too, but you can feel how genuinely proud of the film he is here.
Let's dive into some wisdom from the Beard, thanks to a July 1984 American Cinematographer article edited by Merry Elkins. Below, Mr. Spielberg discusses the inspirations for the visual style of the film, his work with cinematographer Douglas Slocombe, his storyboarding process, juggling a complex production, how important (or not) realism is to an adventure movie and the iconic mine cart sequence. Enjoy!
"In many ways, the visual style of the film was conceived when George told me the story, which was a very rough sketch of the movie he wanted us to help him construct. I heard a couple of things. I heard Kali Cult and Thuggees. I heard temple of doom, black magic, voodoo, and human sacrifice. When he said words like temple of doom and black magic, what came to mind immediately was torchlight and long shadows and red lava light. I felt that dictated the visual style of the movie. Once you're underground, there's no sunlight seeping through. I wanted to paint a dark picture of an inner sanctum. I didn't rely on magazine pictures as I used to, looking at National Geographic pages or in a photography magazine to show the cameraman what I liked. I relied more on what it would look like if an entire set had only low wattage light bulbs recessed in nooks and crannies. It suggested the Bela Lugosi light you put under the vampire's face that casts a nose shadow across the forehead. It suggested a lot of spooky, creepy, crawly, nocturnal imagery.
"All the lighting effects were floor effects as opposed to putting in a graduated filter or putting on a coral filter or even hooking a piece of cyan gel to the lens. Dougie Slocombe likes to mix light and so do I. We agreed on that for Raiders of the Lost Ark, even though Raiders had a different visual philosophy. Raiders was outdoor adventure and the sun was our ally. In Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, the arc, 10k and the baby were our allies. Often just the light of an actual torch was plenty with the assistance of the new fast 94 stock.
"The color scheme evolved out of many production meetings with our costume designer, Anthony Powell, myself, Elliot Scott, and Dougie Slocombe in deciding what the film was going to look like. I wanted it to be filled with bright colors like a classic Technicolor movie. I especially wanted the banquet sequence at the beginning of the picture to be like The Adventures of Don Juan. Palatial, flashy, and motley in the choice of primary colors for the costumes and walls. Decadent. We wanted it to be bright and gaudy. To mislead the audience and make them think, with the dancing girls and exotic characters and their colorful costumes, that Indiana Jones' adventure was going to take place on the surface of the world. But the minute he goes into his room at night and discovers the secret passage which leads into the inner sanctum and eventually to the Temple of Doom, I wanted the shift in style to be very dark and low key.
"Dougie Slocombe likes to mix light and so do I. We agreed on that for Raiders of the Lost Ark, even though Raiders had a different visual philosophy. Raiders was outdoor adventure and the sun was our ally. In Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, the arc, 10k and the baby were our allies.
"We had a budget of $28 million, and we delivered Paramount a $28 million movie. I went over budget in some sequences, and came in under budget in others. I went over schedule with certain scenes, and came way under in others. It was almost all a wash. We actually came in five days under schedule.
"When I'm sketching an angle, I draw seven or eight frames that tell a small story. I do the thumbnails myself, which are often absolutely impossible to interpret, and I need to stand over the artist to explain which side is up. These shots are all subject to change, and I usually don't shoot every one. I always overdraw. I draw more than I can possibly shoot in one two-hour movie. Then I begin cutting the storyboards down, taking seven or eight different frames, and finding one shot that symbolized everything I want to say in those drawings. That gives it economy and substance and a lot more energy. I cram every bit of visual information into one frame. The audience today, especially with the influence of television and the 30-second, often 10-second commercial, is seeing faster than they saw in the '50s and '60s. With every generation born, kids are taking information in quicker than we did when we were kids. I don't have to hit the audience over the head with seven shots when two might tell the story, the two that really have all the information in them; then I'll find areas to bridge with little cut-away I might want to do to protect myself if the scene's too long in the editing room later.
"The best example of this is in the spike chamber where I drew several renderings of insects crawling over Kate Capshaw. I had all sorts of shots planned showing the migration of bugs up and around the actress, and I was going to do a study of that. But once I got on the set and saw how she was reacting to being around the bugs, I felt the best thing to do was throw the storyboards out and take one camera and hold Kate wide, and a second camera panning from the bugs up to her face. I shot most of her footage that way, with two cameras at the same time, reacting as she would react. We were being as spontaneous as she was. The situation for her was very real, as it would have been for anybody having a thousand creepy insects crawling all over her body.
"Storyboarding also performs another service which I find fundamental. It exhausts me. It makes me tired and a little bored with the sequence. In a way, I've already shot that sequence by sketching it; then, by reviewing the sketches I'm able to look at the sequence and say, this has no imagination. This is not interesting. It forces me to rethink each scene. Often I'll sketch something in a safe manner, in a way that if worst came to worst, if it stormed and we lost a day I'd have something to fall back on.
And now we're on to the big mine car sequence. Spielberg talks a lot about how they shot this, the experimentation that went into figuring this sequence out and what it was like to actually ride around in the rig. This stuff is amazing.
"For the mine car chase, Elliot Scott and I designed the mine train full scale on one large sound stage in London and Dennis Muren, our special effects supervisor, matched what we built for the miniature shots. I didn't quite know what I wanted this mine train chase to be. I had some elaborate storyboards, impossible to put on screen, and Elliot Scott told me he didn't think he could do it justice with one circular track. So he built some variety into that track by constructing it on three levels. It goes 15 feet over the camera, then dips down to about two feet off the ground, then down one foot, down two feet more, back up to ground level, and finally back up eith feet. What we actually did was build a rollercoaster ride on the sound stage. And it really worked. It was safe. It was electrically driven. You could take rides in it.
"We built two loops, the main train loop and a dolly track loop. I could sit on the camera with Chic (Waterson) operating it, and five people pushing the dolly from behind, we'd travel at the same speed as the mine train.
"One of the secrets to making that scene realistic was not locking the camera down. There are many mount shots that study Indiana and Willie in closeup. There are no process shots in the sequence at all. I used master shots with run-bys, or the camera was in the car, or running next to the car with the actors in the car.
"Before we shot, we did a steady test. What we discovered was that we could not get the camera steady. The photography on the first day of testing was almost unusable because the camera shook so much when it was in the mine car. Everyone said, 'Gee, this looks terrible.' And I said, 'No, it doesn't look terrible. It looks absolutely realistic.' I took several rides in the mine car and this is what it looks like. It made my fillings fall out. This is what it feels like to be in a mine car without shock absorbers, racing downhill. I loved the fact that the camera never was steady. We even began to loosen the mounts as we shot so it would register more vibration.
"For the run-by shots, I found when I used a wide angle lens, it was too smooth. It was like a boat-to-boat shot on a calm lake. So, I only shot from the dolly to the mine car with 75s, 100s and 180mm anamorphic lenses. This in itself made it hard for Chic because he was struggling to keep the actors in frame. But it gave a very realistic effect. Then Dougie and Paul Beesen, who both helped to shoot the sequence, put very hot lights every 20 or 30 yards so there would be sweeping shadows as the people went through different colored lights. We were careful to change the color of the gels so the actors never went through just white light. They went through reds, oranges, yellows, and greens. This gave the feeling of speed and variety of location.
"Since we were going in only one direction, and never faster than ten miles per hour for safety reasons, what we did was shoot an entire loop of the track with yellow light. Then I'd ask Dougie to change all the gels in his lamps and go totally straw, and we'd do another pass in straw light. Then we'd come back and I'd ask Dougie to light half the set in straw and half with red as if they were going through fissures where lava rivers flowed beneath. Then on the same boring circle, we'd go around with the actors and they'd do the dialogue involving the red color. Every time I went around the track, Dougie kept varying the lighting. The marvelous thing was that just by changing the position of the lighting and the color gel over the light, you never felt you were in the same part of the circular set more than once. The set itself never changed, though we did build a section of parallel track for what we called the taffy pull with Short Round between the two cars and the live action footage was supplemented with miniature footage. The high overhead shot of Short Round between the two cars going over the lava pit, for example, is a miniature.
"One day, accidentally, the actors went through a large lump of smoke. The effects man didn't take the B-smoke and properly paddle it evenly across the track. He created a cloud that hung in the air. When the mine car hit the cloud it created a contrail which flowed off the shoulders and hat of Harrison Ford, and I just loved it. It was an accident, but from then on I had the effects man lump his clouds in mid air.
"Even though the mine car wasn't going fast, it looked fast because we shot parallel to and very close to rock walls. When you drive in your car you can be going five miles an hour out of your driveway, but if you've got a retaining wall, it looks like you're going 45 miles an hour. That's why we shot a lot of the sequence flat to a wall.
Now that Mr. Spielberg's voice has been included (even if it is a 30 year old echo of his voice) I feel like we can finally wind down this Fortune and Glory series. Don't worry, there's still one more big piece to go. Keep your eye on the left-hand column for a nice, juicy exclusive interview to put the final period on this series.

Use this as L2 cache with PrimoCache and prepared to be amazed. I have the 64GB Optane paired with Primocache and the performance difference is notable - even with my primary drive being a Samsung M2 Pro series SSD drive. If I wasn't so happy with my current setup I'd be all over this new drive as an L2 cache. And unlike Intel's caching software for Optane, Primocache is trivial to install with no special requirements for BIOS or partitioning.


Pumps are often used in the CO2 industry for the making of dry ice, and for carbonation in the beverage industry.

She's taking control. And it's driving him wild!
My review - Another brilliant book in the DARE series. This is possibly one of my favourites and I just really enjoyed it. It was fun, full of drama, romance and so much more. The story was interesting and I love the chemistry between Lucy and Gideon.
Lucy and Gideon where once friends. After her fiancee cheated and she has a new job, she needs a pretend husband. She calls up Gideon and he instantly says yes.
He's also in love with her and has been for years.
Gideon is good looking and successful. He hates that he was the reason Lucy was so heartbroken but, also happy he was able to come clean about her cheating fiancee. Lucy doubts herself. She has lost all her self-esteem because of the ex-fiancee. Gideon is about to show her a time she won't forget. A way to be treated, the way she should be treated. But, is Lucy ready to open up her heart again and especially to Gideon? Will she trust him? Or will something make her push him away.
I just love this book. I felt so sorry for Lucy as nothing is worse than getting cheated on and being made to feel like crap. But, she comes back stronger, she has her moments but she is trying to get her life back on track. Gideon may just be the key to her happiness.
A wonderful novel from Katee that I can't recommend enough!

Geschichte
Im 13. Jahrhundert wurde Lindow Sitz des Klosters Lindow, eines Nonnenklosters der Zisterzienserinnen oder Prämonstratenserinnen. Dies lässt sich nicht mit Sicherheit feststellen, da die Akten in der Reformationszeit untergegangen sind. Gründer waren die Grafen von Lindow-Ruppin als Besitzer der Herrschaft Ruppin. Das Kloster war umgeben von mehreren kleinen Dörfern, welche zu dieser Zeit zum Besitz des Klosters gehörten. Nach der Reformation und späteren Zerstörung der Kirche wurden die verbleibenden Gebäude ein evangelisches Stift für adlige unversorgte Damen. Die letzten Stiftsdamen (Kanonissinen) starben in den 1960er Jahren.
Ihr Friedhof liegt neben der Kirchenruine.

Vier Kilometer entfernt von Lindow liegt das ehemalige Kirchdorf Gühlen, heute Teil von Lindow.

Von 1879 bis 1851 bestand das Amtsgericht Lindow (Mark).

Im Ortsteil Klosterheide betrieb die SS-Organisation Lebensborn vom September 1937 bis Ende 1944 das Lebensbornheim Kurmark.

Am 4. August 1952 stürzte ein sowjetisches Militärflugzeug auf der "Amtsfreiheit", einem Platz im Stadtgebiet von Lindow, ab. Dabei kamen sowohl die beiden Insassen (Pilot und Waffensystemoffizier) als auch ein Einwohner Lindows ums Leben.

Nach der Wende 1989 zog sich das ehemalige Staatsoberhaupt der DDR Erich Honecker für einige Tage in ein Regierungsheim in der Nähe der Stadt zurück, bis ihn Bürgerproteste zum Auszug zwangen.

Seit 1998 ist Lindow (Mark) ein staatlich anerkannter Erholungsort.

Verwaltungsgeschichte

Lindow gehörte seit dem 14. Jahrhundert zur Herrschaft Ruppin, seit 1524 zum Kreis Ruppin in der Mark Brandenburg und ab 1952 zum Kreis Neuruppin im DDR-Bezirk Potsdam. Seit 1993 liegt Lindow im brandenburgischen Kreis Ostprignitz-Ruppin.

Rufus v Elliott (preliminary issue)
Court: High Court, Queen's Bench Division
Judge: Warby J
Date of judgment: 24 Mar 2015
Summary: Defamation - Libel - Meaning - Trial - Preliminary Issue
Appearances: Jonathan Barnes (Claimant)
Instructing Solicitors: Simon Smith, Solicitor, for the Claimant; David Price Solicitors and Advocates for the Defendant
The Defendant, a former professional footballer, issued a press release explaining his decision to resign as a Kick It Out trustee. Kick It Out is an anti-racism campaign group, supported by the Football Association. The Claimant, also a former professional footballer, complained that with reference to an earlier newspaper article published in the Sun, headlined "A football anti-racism champion has sparked a race row after calling another black man "n*****"", concerning a row between the two men, who were previously friends and business colleagues, the Defendant's press release implied that the Claimant had acted disloyally to the Defendant by making public a text message sent by the Defendant to the Claimant, which contained the extremely offensive word, "nigger". The Claimant in fact denies that it was him who made the text public.
The Court of Appeal upheld a first instance ruling that the press release was capable of being defamatory and directed the trial of a preliminary issue as to meaning.
What was the actual meaning of the words complained of and were they defamatory of the Claimant?
By way of innuendo with reference to pleaded facts that had been stated by the Sun article the press release meant that the Claimant, a former friend and business colleague of the Defendant, had made public a text message which the Defendant had sent him, in which the Defendant, a trustee of the Kick It Out campaign and a long term anti-racism campaigner, had abused the Claimant by calling him a nigger and threatening him; and that as a result of the disclosure the Defendant had resigned his position as trustee because, as he acknowledged, his use of the n-word was inappropriate and in conflict with his public position. The press release did not therefore bear the meaning complained of; nor did it mean that the Claimant had acted disloyally.
Nor was the press release defamatory of the Claimant, because the conduct it attributed to him by way of innuendo is not conduct that would lower him in the esteem or opinion of right-thinking members of society generally. Right-thinking members of society generally would not disapprove of the revelation of the use of an unacceptable racist term by the Defendant, a trustee of an anti-racist organisation. That is so even though, in doing so (if he did, which he denies), the Claimant disclosed a private message sent to him. Duties implied by friendship are not placed above the desirability of holding to account a public figure whose private behaviour contradicts his public stance. Alternatively to that view, if the Claimant's conduct would be regarded as involving disloyalty, then even so it is disloyalty of a kind that is not considered culpable or blameworthy by society in general.
Subject to any appeal, this was the final determination on meaning of a case that has spent nearly two years in litigation over capability of meaning. As the court noted, the fact that the trial took place less than a month after the Court of Appeal's decision was handed down is an indication of how swiftly such hearings can be arranged, with co-operation from the parties. The hearing of the trial itself lasted just over an hour.

LE CORBUSIER, born Charles-Edouard Jeanneret-Gris in 1887 in Switzerland, was an architect, designer, urbanist, and writer, famous for being one of the pioneers of what is now called modern architecture. His career spanned five decades, with his buildings constructed throughout Europe, India, Japan and America. He was a pioneer in studies of modern high design and was dedicated to providing better living conditions for the residents of crowded cities. In 1918, Le Corbusier met the Cubist painter Amédée Ozenfant. Rejecting Cubism as irrational and "romantic", the pair jointly published their manifesto, 'Après le cubisme' and established a new artistic movement, Purism. They established the Purist journal 'L'Esprit nouveau'.
It was Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye (1929–1931) that most succinctly summed up his five points of architecture that he had elucidated in 'L'Esprit Nouveau' and his book 'Vers une architecture'. By 1927, Le Corbusier was among the world's leading practitioners of the New Architecture. He collaborated with Charlotte Perriand on furniture – including the LC4 – which is still an icon of modern design. Around 1942, he formulated his "Modulor" theory to facilitate architecture on a human scale. In the 1950s, an opportunity to translate the Radiant City on a large scale occurred in the construction of the Union Territory Chandigarh and the first planned city in India. In 1952, the first 'Unité d'Habitation' was completed in Marseille, followed by further modular residential units and the pilgrimage chapel at Ronchamps in 1955 – He died in 1965 in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, France.

Kamloops Arts Council presents UTOPIA
Image Credit: Contributed
KAMLOOPS - Please join artists Tangie Genshorek and Cameron MacQuarrie for their opening reception of UTOPIA at the Kamloops Arts Council Main Gallery.
Utopia proposes the development of unique spaces where humans might create a new way of urban life. Utopia brings together digital photographs and models in collages that create new plans for neighbourhoods through a hypothetical perspective other than our own.
Tangie Genshorek and Cameron MacQuarrie have worked together since 2009 in a combined creative effort they call Scaled Space Studio. The idea of scaled space refers to viewing, drawing and modelling at different scales in analog and digital worlds. Tangie and Cameron create 2D visual representations that combine drawing, digital photography, modelling and collage.
Tangie Genshorek is a multimedia artist residing in Kamloops British Columbia after having lived in many places in Canada and abroad. Tangie has been formally trained in fine art at Thompson Rivers University, the University of Victoria, and the Alberta College of Art and Design and showed her work in private settings through the 1990s. Tangie is now creating artwork after completing an undergraduate degree in urban studies at the University of Calgary in 2004 and a master degree in architecture at the University of Toronto in 2008.
Cameron MacQuarrie is a multimedia digital artist residing in Kamloops British Columbia after living and working in Calgary, Vancouver, and Toronto. Cam earned a degree in Visual Communications from the Alberta College of Art and Design in 1992 and went on to spend time specializing in web development, iconography, and the creation of analog and digital motion graphics. Music and art have always been a large part of Cams life, and his artistic vision is informed by a career in graphic design.

Reform L.A. Jails Holds Event to Educate on Mental Health and Mass Incarceration
November 26, 2019 | by Art For Justice Fund
Patrisse Cullors worked with her organization Reform L.A. Jails to put together a full-day event designed to educate those in attendance on mental health and mass incarceration, while also entertaining them and encouraging them to vote "yes" on the organization's initiative on the upcoming California primary ballot.
As The Root reports, the event featured panel discussions, fireside chats, art installations, a DJ and food, along with other entertainment. It also provided an opportunity for Los Angeles District Attorney candidates to share their plans to work to decriminalize mental illness. Among those who spoke on panels was Michele Infante, senior campaign lead at Dignity and Power Now.
"It felt really important to kind of use the culture of the day party as a part of how we talk about some really important issues in the community around mental health and incarceration," said Cullors.
The California primary is scheduled for March 3, 2020.

UPDATE: Flower Mound police officers have located a body believed to be Wesley Andrew Hixson in a ravine near Twin Coves Marina. His body is being transported to the Tarrant County Medical Examiner's Office to determine a cause of death.
Local authorities are using ground, air and water units to search for a missing cyclist who crashed his bike on Saturday at Murrell Park in Flower Mound.
Wesley Andrew Hixson, 30, was last seen at 10 am on June 21, when he separated from a friend who was also riding on the Lake Grapevine trail system. Hixson's friend contacted the Flower Mound Police Department around 2 pm, and a team of trained rescuers began searching the area.
Before going missing, Hixson crashed his bike and may have suffered a head injury.
Prior to separating from his riding partner, Hixson crashed his bike and may have suffered a head injury. Hixson was reportedly wearing a helmet at the time of the crash and continued riding.
According to police, the search team has covered more than 1,500 acres and included assistance from officers on bikes, boats and helicopters, as well K-9 units and the Flower Mound Fire Department. Authorities have recovered Hixson's vehicle, which contained his cellphone.
"Search efforts have not resulted in any useable information as to the location of Hixson," police said in a June 22 statement. "Our hope is that he has made his way outside of the park and is safe and secure."
On social media, many people asked to help search for Hixson, but the police are asking the public not to get involved.
"We have numerous highly trained resources deployed in the area at this time. We ask that citizens please stay out of Murrell Park and trail systems to allow personnel to focus their efforts most effectively," police said, highlighting the "hazardous search conditions" and the added complications of untrained, volunteer search parties.
Hixson was least seen wearing a black T-shirt, black shorts and sunglasses. Anyone with information on his possible whereabouts is asked to call 972-539-0525.
