Read Our Recent Posts
Tillak originated from a small collection of us spread out along the West Coast, who worked other jobs and had various career paths, but we best described ourselves as outdoor addicts. We would spend our weekdays toiling away behind computers or out in the field, but off the clock we were mountain bikers, backpackers, car campers, fly anglers, surfers, snowboarders and climbers. Our obsession with recreating in the outdoors is the backbone of Tillak – our varied lifelong passions and pursuits shape and mold every single product that we make.
In parallel with our love of outdoor activities is our admiration of the outdoor places that we enjoy. One of the main purposes our founders created Tillak was as a means to leverage business as a tool for environmental awareness and stewardship, and in an effort to establish a new precedent for the outdoor industry. At the very core of our team is a shared desire to give as much back to the places we love as we can. Through our Goods That Give Back Program, through volunteer hours with local organizations, or through partnerships with non-profit organizations, all of us here have dedicated our time and ourselves toward the betterment of the environment.
Here is the small but growing list of faces that make up our Portland, Oregon and Morro Bay, California offices.
Jason Fitzgibbon
Jason Fitzgibbon is a lifelong mountain biker, surfer, fly angler, climber, writer, photographer and wildlife biologist based out of Morro Bay, California. Jason's love and respect of the outdoors began at a very young age and blossomed through his constant recreational and academic pursuits, eventually leading him to obtain his Master's of Science degree in Environmental Science and Conservation Biology. As a wildlife biologist, avid outdoorsman, and respected adventure photographer and writer, Jason has spent the better part of the last decade introducing the outdoor industry to environmental issues and concerns, losses and victories. Through founding Tillak, his hope is that he can establish a new norm in the Outdoor Industry - a dedication and a commitment to giving back to the places that we all enjoy.
Octave Zangs
Octave Zangs grew up with a fly rod in his hand. He is also an established filmmaker, multi-faceted musician, web designer, coder, and devout environmental conservationist originally from Normandy, France. Octave spent the better portion of his childhood and formative years working tirelessly to protect his local, native brown trout fishery until a devastating industry-related cyanide spill occurred. The spill, which completely sterilized his cherished local watershed, opened his eyes to a world where short term gains in business almost always outweighed long term environmental losses. Shortly after losing his local stream, Octave relocated to the West Coast of the United States. Since his arrival here over five years ago his filmmaking and his imagery has helped to raise awareness about the wild places that many of us take for granted - a commodity that long ago vanished from much of his native Europe. Octave co-founded Tillak in hopes of inspiring the outdoor community (and beyond) to cherish, enjoy, and protect the remaining natural landscapes and public lands that we still have.
Jenna Lagonigro
Jenna Lagonigro was born and raised in a small town in North Carolina. She spent much of her time as a child running around in the woods, hiking, camping and swimming - and not much has changed in her adult life. Jenna received her Bachelor's of Art + Design from North Carolina State University and continued on to pursue a career in fashion in New York City. Shortly after moving, she realized that city life failed to quench her constant thirst for nature so she packed up and headed across the country to trade skyscrapers for Douglas fir. Now happier and thriving amongst the conifers and wildflowers, Jenna continues to pursue her passions and refine her beliefs in ethical design and sustainability. Her work for Tillak emulates her shared commitments to ethical, intentional design and environmental advocacy.
Colton Jacobs
First and foremost an athlete, creative mind and outdoorsman, Colton's passion for wide open spaces and adventure started long before he ever picked up a camera. In 2015 Colton launched into a full-time photography career after shadowing under several of Seattle's elite photographers, and has spent nearly a decade working in the outdoor industry. Colton is not only known for his ability to capture the human interaction amongst earth's most delicate and pristine landscapes, he is also well known for his ability to get to them. His endurance, dedication and unique perspective make his work incredibly original. Colton's photography has been published in magazines such as Outside Magazine, Transworld Snowboarding and Mens Journal.
Conrad Gowell
Conservation Advisor
Conrad is an expert angler, river snorkeler, biologist, naturalist and forager, with a knowledge and appreciation of his natural surroundings that is both undeniable and incredibly contagious. Conrad spent his youth exploring and learning amongst the old growth forests and wild watersheds of Coastal Oregon before obtaining his Bachelor of Science degree in Natural Science from the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Washington. He has since worked with various non-profit organizations, academic institutions, indigenous cultures, and fisheries consultants, aiming to advance the sustainable management and restoration of watersheds. He is a lifelong advocate for wild fish and watersheds, whose consistent dedication has brought many communities to action.

On a high
British Design & Art Direction has awarded designer Mary Lewis the D&AD President's Award. Lynda Relph-Knight flies through Lewis's career and finds out what, and who, inspires her.
By System Administrator June 7, 2001 12:00 am January 30, 2015 2:21 pm
My first encounter with Mary Lewis was in 1988. Unknown to her, Lewis Moberly's work for Asda wines and spirits had struck Gold in the British Design & Art Direction Awards and I, a freelance journalist, was despatched by Design Week to write a profile.
Ironically, 13 years on I found myself in a similar situation, talking to a woman I have come to know and admire in the intervening period, without letting on that she is about to receive D&AD's biggest honour – the D&AD President's Award, bestowed on her by current president David Stuart of The Partners.
The D&AD President's Award only goes to outstanding folk – in 1995, during her presidential term, Lewis gave it jointly to Richard Seymour and Dick Powell. It doesn't make heroes, but it recognises their contribution over time.
There is no doubt that Lewis is a hero. People are in awe of her tough approach to producing creative quality, but most respect her hugely, not least because she has steered a course for design to enter new areas, such as own-brand packaging. She has crossed over into brands and identity, and now, with her role of overseeing food and lingerie packaging for Marks & Spencer, into design management.
Lewis Moberly's work wins awards – a lead the in-house team at M&S looks set to follow having been shortlisted for a DW Award this year for the Chinese takeaway packs. But the awards go beyond the peer group prizes: the consultancy has also won five Design Business Association Design Effectiveness awards over the past 12 years, including a Grand Prix for its hosiery packs for Boots the Chemists.
Lewis had a different approach to her work from the outset. She studied fine art and printmaking at Camberwell, and when she left had no desire to work in design. But, as a self-starter, she decided to teach in art schools so she could use the printmaking equipment for her own work during the holidays. She says her knack of bringing out young design talent – a trait at Lewis Moberly – started then.
Hence, though mixing in art circles – and married to a painter – she found herself teaching graphic design without having ever done any. She decided she should.
Design at that time was dominated by the likes of Wolff Olins, Minale Tattersfield & Partners, Pentagram and the old Michael Peters Group, but it was still very much linked to advertising. Lewis chose advertising.
"I found the world of advertising more exciting," she explains. "I could do design within it, and work freelance." In advertising she learned "how powerful the idea is".
She is very clear about the difference between advertising and design. Advertising is "transient", while design is "what you take home", she says. She sees no conflict between the two, which has stood her in good stead for years of commitment to D&AD, an organisation which aims to straddle both.
Lewis is equally clear about the difference between art and design – and her reasons for eventually choosing design. "Communication is very important to me," she says. "I need a brief to communicate to someone else and in art there is no brief."
It was through advertising, at Foote, Cone & Belding, that she met Robert Moberly, her partner in business and life. He held a strategic and managerial role within the agency, but "he wanted to do something different", says Lewis. She sees him as highly creative. "He is my greatest critic. He is more rational and wise, while I can be impetuous," she says. In 1984 they set up Lewis Moberly.
"We set out to make the product everything," says Lewis. "We were conscious that we had to produce a body of work we were proud of." The quality brought an offer from Sir Martin Sorrell early on in his acquisitive career, she says, but Lewis and Moberly resisted. There are no plans to sell out now, though with the consolidation within the industry "we're having to fight a lot harder for what's left", says Lewis. It is perhaps significant that much of the consultancy's work is now for overseas clients.
Along the way, Lewis had met and clicked with various clients. These included Keith Clarke, who was then trading director at Asda. "Nothing had yet happened on the supermarket front," says Lewis. "But the adventurous consumer was beginning to emerge and the supermarkets were starting to realise the potential."
For Asda and Lewis Moberly that potential manifested in the "huge challenge" of some 300 own-brand wine and spirit labels to be completed on a tight budget within two years. The brief was that "it had to be a turning point and put Asda on the map", says Lewis.
Lewis's solution was to commission artists to create the labels. Fees were minimal, but each got to sign their oeuvre and the design was "undebated", says Lewis. The awards flowed in. But, more importantly, several of the designs are still on Asda's shelves.
Within design Lewis became the queen of own-brand, working also for Pentagram partner John McConnell at Boots on what she describes as "the next defining project" – the Boots hosiery packs. "John was ahead of his time [as external design manager at Boots]," she says. "The design ethos he imparts takes a philosophical and cultural approach. "I've been lucky to have partners like him who love design as much as I do."
But own-brand is not the whole story and branding and identity are in the mix now. It started with the Classics Malts range for United Distillers, which yielded the ground-breaking Oban packs. Then came Bells scotch whisky, Heinz, Milk Tray, Bahlsen biscuits and the Duchy packaging range. Lewis has since broadened beyond fmcg to take on packs for the Seymour Powell-designed Charnos BioForm bra and won awards for tough products like Waitrose's Diva sanitary protection range.
Eagle Star in 1988 marked the big break into identity work, the portfolio of which now includes London wine attraction Vinopolis, Stuart Crystal and Jaeger.
"I have a curiosity about people, which inevitably takes me down a branding route. You have to put yourself in the shoes of the people you're talking to," says Lewis. "I'm passionate about brands – corporate or consumer the approach is the same."
And that approach? "I look to life, not to design," she says. A recent Paris show of the consultancy's work was called "Making the ordinary extraordinary", which is what Lewis prides herself at doing. She enjoys the challenge of limited budgets – "the best design is often born out of that," she says.
Lewis Moberly projects often start with a story – one Lewis has made up. For the Oban packs, for example, Lewis and Moberly spent a couple of weeks in the area, absorbing the place and its stories. "Stories get me into what I'm going to express," she says.
The team is very important to Lewis. Lewis Moberly is maintained at around 30 staff, half of whom are designers working as one team under Lewis. "We can never be huge as we would have to run independent teams," she says. She writes the project briefs, interpreting them into positive language, and designers often compete to come up with best idea. The criterion for the choice of the best of these is "Is this the best that we can do?", says Lewis, and as many as fit that bill are fielded to the client, be it one or 60 ideas. "Stars" who have gone through the system include Bruce Duckworth, Milan-based Susanna Cucco, Geoff Halpin and Jerome Berard.
Lewis comes back to the importance of working with "confident" clients. "I like doing scary stuff, " she admits. "But it's not good to work with people who don't have passion." Her best work, she says, involves working directly with brand-owners such as the Bollinger family or Portuguese wine-maker Salvador Guedes, owner of Mateus Rosé, among other local brands.
This is where M&S comes in. "Suddenly, I'm in a major institution, working from the inside. It's very hands on," she says. The Design Forum, which includes all interested parties from marketers to buyers, is about problems and opportunities, she says, for a client which previously saw design as a resource rather than a driver.
"It's interesting to be where I can share things I have learned," she says. But to balance the M&S role, she says she makes sure she always has a design project of her own running in tandem. She says her stint as D&AD president forced her to delegate better within Lewis Moberly, which has stood her in good stead for the M&S job. But it hasn't stopped her being involved in projects such as the consultancy's website – www.lewismoberly.com – though she claims to be computer-illiterate.
Lewis has come a long way since Camberwell, but she says that the main motivator behind her work is fear. And she hasn't forgotten her craft origins either. "If I smell the solvent they use in print rooms, I still get a real high," she says.
Mary Lewis's heroes and their special talents:
Maddie Bennett – 'designs like packs for Penhaligans that happened for the first time'
John Brimacoombe – 'design provoking an emotional response'
John Gorham – 'designs with a story and a strong personality, such as Winsor &Newton inks'
Geoff Halpin – 'strong ideas and craft-skills for projects like Brock's firework packs'
Marcello Minale – 'the singularity of the idea'
Michael Peters – 'analogy in design'

Why do most men above 40 find it really difficult to shed those extra pounds? Or to ask it in more relevant terms, why is this age of 40+ so vulnerable to fat accumulation and so hard for losing weight?
If you are over 40 years and facing challenges to slim yourself down, then the steps I am presenting in this article are tailor made for you. It might make you dishearten to accept, but let's face it – with each passing year, your waist size goes up and your energy level comes down.
So the key question is: what is really going on? How can we turn this process around?
Starting in our early 40s, our bodies go through a series of changes that profoundly affect digestion, metabolism, and other bodily functions. Researchers have found that as we age, a reduction in testosterone level, decreased muscle mass, and a significant slowing down of metabolism take place in our body. The result: an inevitable weight gain. In addition to that, today's lifestyle is aggravating this problem even further.
Cardiovascular exercise aids in maintaining a healthy body composition. It is the ability to handle aerobically challenging situations of varying duration. By undertaking cardiovascular exercise, you can improve your heart rate in order to improve your body's oxygen flow. Cardio exercise reduces total body fat and lowers waist and hip circumference, which are important markers of good health.
Cardio is essentially the ability of your body to supply the oxygen-rich blood to the muscles, subsequently allowing them to produce movements. The cardiovascular exercises that are carried out at higher intensities contribute to a healthy caloric burn. Which is why low intensity cardiovascular activities that are sustained for longer durations directly metabolize fats and carbohydrates.
Fat burning foods help burn calories or reduces calories intake followed by an ultimate decrease in cholesterol (LDL), Risk of DM & Obesity. Foods recommended burning fat are well on the top of lists of suggested food for a good diet.
Foods that are rich in fiber and protein are the most excellent kinds of food to consume if you desire to burn fat. You should lay prime emphasis on organic vegetables; pasture-raised meats, poultry, and wild-caught fish; pasture-raised eggs and grass-fed dairy.
I also find it beneficial to add in clean carbs like sweet potato and wild rice 1-2 times per week in the evening.
Fiber-rich food curbs your appetite and thereby burns unnecessary body fat.
Studies have suggested, the more muscle mass you have, the more effectively your metabolism burns calories. However, the fact also is aging process renders muscle loss, which is gradually replaced by fat. So, in order to acquire more calorie burning abilities, you have to work at it. You need to get enough protein, but a lot of low-carb diets overdo it. You should be eating far more leafy green and fresh veggies than you do meat. Get your meat from grass-fed or free-range animals whenever possible.

A significant amount of water can work wonders when it comes to reducing weight. It helps your liver to readily convert the body fat for energy purposes. Also, if kidneys are getting a lesser amount of water, it affects the productivity of liver, which could have serious consequences for the fat burning process.
Water also helps the digestion process, makes you feel fuller, and you function better all-around when you're hydrated. For better health and results make sure you drink pure water. Always check the TDS level of water before drinking. If you drink impure water, it will make you sick and affects your body.
Getting a good night's sleep holds a paramount importance in resetting all of your activities. It is also an important factor in losing weight. It is a vital regulator of body weight and metabolism. According to some researchers, weight gain is linked to the action of two hormones – leptin and ghrelin. When you're sleep deprived, ghrelin levels increase at the same time that leptin levels decrease. As a result of that, you feel more craving for food. Moreover, sleeping makes your body metabolically active, which means increased fat-burning process.

If you are going through the similar predicament, here is what you should do: make slow and gradual adjustments to counter this trend. Try to figure out, which end of the fuel-in, energy-out equation to emphasize and when.
Without motivation, all of your efforts towards weight loss could go in vein. Staying motivated is the most elementary part of your health plan. You need to have a burning desire to put a logical end to your efforts. Get out and play with the kids. Find ways to make living healthy seem a lot more enticing than going around and eating junk foods all the time. Create an effective diet plan and stick to it until you notice some signs yourself.
Although, 40 is just a number and anyone can stay fit throughout his or her life. However, this age also rings a warning bell in your ears that it is about time you have started taking weight loss seriously. Even if you are obese above 40, all hopes are not lost. You can bounce back to life with a slim and fit body. The above steps tell you how you can possess one.
Keep doing exercises and stay fit and healthy. Share your body transformation experience with us and share these tips.

Claudia Rankine in Banff: On White Supremacy, Art and America
Leah Sandals presents Jamaican-born poet, essayist, and playwright Claudia Rankine, who shared her views on white supremacy, art and race in a July lecture at the Banff Centre. The article includes her thoughts on "Studying the White Orientation of the Trump Era," "Advice and Observations for Museums, Curators and Teachers Today," and "Possible Questions and Takeaways for Canadian Art Institutions." Read the full article at Canadian Art; excerpts below. Sandals writes:
In Rankine's July 26 public talk—part of a small, unique residency program called "Banff Research in Culture: Year 2067"—the founder of the Racial Imaginary Institute masterfully led the audience through a series of images and narratives exploring whiteness in both popular and fine-art culture.
Given the white supremacist violence in Charlottesville on August 11 and 12— just a few weeks after her talk—the research Rankine presented in Banff has become even more vital and necessary.
From reflecting on Louis CK's stand-up routine about how he loves being white (at least in the present) to noting how the photography of Ansel Adams and Carleton Watkins have played into notions of "white greatness and white ownership of the country," Rankine's public talk in Banff covered a wide, white ground, revealing white supremacy, white fragility and anti-Black racism in sites where it is often undetected or overlooked—at least by those who have enough white privilege to do so.
Her message: It's beyond time to look more closely at whiteness both within and beyond art, curation and other cultural spheres. Of course, this isn't just a US issue—there are plenty of implications and takeaways for Canadian art institutions to consider, here, too.
[. . .] That recognition of the white supremacy tied up with America was laid bare in the fact that Trump had "an overt white nationalist orientation," noted Rankine—and yet was still elected. "Trump's rise to power had to do with wilful ignorance of white supremacy," Rankine elucidated.
[. . .] Claudia Rankine and the Racial Imaginary Institute, which she started with her McArthur "Genius" Grant, ran an event called "Perspectives on Race and Representation" at the Whitney in April—an event sparked by controversy over Dana Schutz's painting of Emmett Till in the Whitney Biennial.
While Rankine wanted to do the event, she noted that it was not until after that event that she heard of Whitney higher-ups actually starting to initiate conversations on bias within the institution itself. "They never had thought before about how race functioned within the Whitney," said Rankine.
[. . .] In recent years, there have been an increasing number of examples of Canadian art institutions that are trying to correct a white-centric narrative in their operations and programs.
The most obvious federal example at the moment is the National Gallery of Canada's recent project of combining objects from its historical Canadian art collections and its historical Indigenous art collections into a single set of spaces that it calls its "Canadian and Indigenous Galleries." [. . .]

Dont lock the target, do a manual aim.
Never ever use electric torpedo's unless you are 600m or less of the target.
Im in 1944 and still use steam torpedo's with no problems.
could please explain how to do that becuse i always lock my target it simplifes it so i do other things.
Lock your target, do what you gotta do to get set up, when you are ready to fire, unlock the target and put the crosshairs on the area you want to hit, plot solution then fire.

Sue Brann, a community resident who leads a highly effective Block Watch Group in Lake Montezuma, spoke about the way her group has organized to patrol a large area by smart scheduling, and providing a master reference book of information about homes and residents. That master book is passed to the patrollers currently on duty each week, and is kept current through the year, so that those on patrol know what to expect on each block: e.g., when neighbors may be out of town, guests may be staying with unfamiliar vehicles, and so on. She also emphasized that the Block Watch's mission is to look for suspicious activity, and to notify law enforcement if something is spotted, rather than to tackle the matter themselves. The Sheriff's department contingent heartily agreed, and assured us that leads are all followed up. Congratulations to Sue and her group for a really successful, long-term positive result on the neighborhood. A good crowd of neighbors was on hand to talk about ideas and questions regards the Block Watch program, and to express concerns about traffic and speeding enforcement.
The Board handled other business in their usual efficient manner, approved necessary minutes and financials, discussed pending recommendations, and scheduled lots of activity over the next couple of months. Work details were scheduled to put up holiday lights in Rollins Park — in time for Christmas and Holiday Fest, but not so early that we lose sight of Thanksgiving or the meaning of the season. Arrangements to stuff envelopes for mailings to our members, planning for the Annual Meeting in January, and so on, will keep your Board from dozing off between now and the end of the year.
Check this space for the official minutes later. As always, to share in the conversation, you just gotta come on out to the meeting and tell it like you see it!

The great pumpkin landed at the Halloween Spooktacular Saturday in Rollins Park, along with dozens of tiny ballerinas, fairies, witches, zombies, caped crusaders, mutant ninja turtles, puppy dogs, and tiny children out for their first Trick or Treat event. Bigger kids of all ages happily trooped around, oohed and aaahed at each others' coolness or scariness or downright silliness, There were treats galore, spotlights, movies, popcorn, hot dogs and music. Everybody was home in bed by 8:30. Nicely done, Kiwanis and LMPOA and all who helped make it safe and fun.
Now, we've all had our Flu Shots, and fall is starting to roll out with major social events . . . like Taco Tuesday at MRFD this week! Also this week, on Monday, 11/2 is the LMPOA Board Meeting with Anthony Palermo, YCSO Community Relations Specialist, speaking on "How to Form a Neighborhood Watch" at 5 PM in the BC Adult Center. All are invited to attend.
November 5 it's science fiction at the Library, Then, November 6, and 7th, it's Arts & Crafts Sales at the Beaver Creek Adult Center, Trails Day will be at Sycamore Park November 7th. See the Beaver Creek eNews for all the details.
A special meeting of the LMPOA Board will be held Monday, October 19, 2015 at 5:00 pm in the Beaver Creek Adult Center. The special meeting was called in order for the Board to vote on items discussed at the last meeting.
The regular monthly meeting of the LMPOA Board was held Monday, October 5, 2015 at 5:00 at the Beaver Creek Adult Center. Due to vacations and other reasons, only three Board Members were present, so a quorum was not met.
However, a nice crowd of well-informed and vocal residents were on hand to talk about pending issues and hear a succinct presentation from Supervisor Tom Thurman and County Director of Development Services Steve Mauk regarding the Pros and Cons of incorporating for a small community. Lots of intelligent questions and answers later, revealed the crowd not in favor of pushing forward toward incorporation. The Board will hear more comments at the next meeting, and consider setting up a task force for further study if community members want to pursue the issue. Last meeting, a gentleman came to the meeting with a research packet and recommended this as a pretty good way to enable the community to get some muscle behind applications for grants or other funding, as well as to enforce local zoning or other ordinances, elect and pay a Mayor, and open up the ability to assess taxes toward possible viability for the Golf Course and Ranch House.
Our proximity to national monuments Montezuma Well and Montezuma Castle was noted at our last meeting as a factor that might allow us to keep the size of an incorporated area or special tax district quite small; however, Thurman pointed out that normally the County will approve only when 50 percent of the residents plus 1 are in favor of forming such an entity. The trick would be to make the boundaries small: surrounding area to the Golf Course, for example. Unfortunately, that would also exclude most businesses which could provide tax revenue.
Mauk recommended consulting the Arizona League of Cities and Towns as THE resource for information on incorporating and special districts. Both Mauk and Thurman emphasized that the budget for forming a small town corporation can be sizable! County services such as police, building inspections, and road maintenance become no longer available from the County without special requests and costs to the incorporated community.
The controversial proposed National Monument in Sedona was also discussed. Both the topic of forming a task force on incorporation and issuing a letter of support or non-support for the Sedona National Monument were tabled for next meeting, and will have much more discussion. The Sedona decision is completely up to Barack Obama, but our letter of support and others from the Sedona area will surely sway that outcome.
Thank you to resident "Mr. Park" Bill Merkley, who attended and was pressed into duty to help with bids for much-needed work on the trees in Rollins Park.
A letter of support for use permits for the new Montezuma Family Dental has been sent and a letter of support for a parking and supplies location for a U-Haul was considered but will be voted on by the Board with quorum at the next meeting.
Plans for the Halloween Spooktacular were discussed, and individuals encouraged to SIGN UP EARLY for being part of the trunk-or-treat treat provider group. Sign up by contacting Janet Aniol or Grace Lahr TODAY so that all treat providers can be properly vetted prior to October 31st. Showing up late with goodies is not an option for obvious safety reasons concerning our kids!
A special meeting was tentatively scheduled for October 19th at 5:00 PM to make the necessary approvals with quorum, and then the next regular meeting will be the first Monday in November with YCSO guest Anthony Palermo who will provide neighborhood block watch information. Stay tuned here for the official minutes, but if you want to hear some really interesting stuff and speak your mind about community issues, you gotta come out to the meeting!
Approved Minutes from the August 3rd Board Meeting are available for review here.
You will also find posted the July and August Financial Reports and the Proposed Bylaws Amendments which will be under discussion over the next few weeks. Your comments will be appreciated, whether you are a member or an area resident who has not yet become a member of LMPOA.

A great time was had by all at the July 4th Beaver Creek Parade. The parade left the Sycamore Park area in Lake Montezuma at 9:00 AM and traveled south on Montezuma Avenue past the Village Square. Grand Marshals Pastor Ken and Leeza Miller presided over a fun family ceebration of Independence Day. Parade entrants (walkers, animals, vehicles, floats) put on a great show. The festivities and pancake breakfast was in Rollins Park at the Lake Montezuma Village Square. The BC Kiwanis Duck Race on Wet Beaver Creek featured a flotilla of feisty rubber ducks who paddled madly for the finish line. Congratulations to Carol Keeton, Kiwanis Event Coordinator, and all who helped make this a great event.


This article is an attempt to depict steps may needed to configure IIS for hosting WCF application. An important thing that should be considered is that all user do not face following situations. First of all I try to create a simple WCF application and then I try to publish this simple WCF simple application.
I created solution named AccountSolution. I added new project named **Accounting **by right clicking on AccountingSolution and selecting Add > New project menu. In the next step I added reference of System.ServiceModel to project references.
I added new web site named WCFServiceAccount and added new project reference of Accounting. Since I added project reference to Accounting project, cs under App_Data folder is no longer needed. So let delete two cs file under App_Data.
In order to setService and end points I used WCF Configuration option by right-clicking on web.config.
**Tip**: Sometimes "Edit WCF Configuration" does not appear in right-click menu. Once open "WCF Service Configuration" from tools menu and close it, this cause menu appear next time in right click menu.
I set first service name to Accounting.AccountService by browsing Accounting.dll in bin directory.
And I set first end point contract attribute to Accounting.IAccount and delete second end point.
And at last save the WCF configuration and build solution. Before running web site let set WCFServiceAccount as startup project and set Service.svc as start page. Our web site is ready to be executed. After successful execution let host our website to local IIS. Simply website could be hosted by publishing web site to local IIS. If IIS is installed before visual studio 2008 you may not face with any following errors and simply you can jump next step.
To install the IIS 6.0 Management Compatibility Components by using the Windows Vista Control Panel 1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Programs and Features, and then click Turn Windows features on or off. 2. Open Internet Information Services. 3. Open Web Management Tools. 4. Open IIS 6.0 Management Compatibility. 5. Select the check boxes for IIS 6 Metabase and IIS 6 configuration compatibility and IIS 6 Management Console. 6. Click OK.
Following image shows how to install "IIS6 Metabase and IIS 6 Configuration ". Surprisingly you can set other option such as Installing ASP.NET and Windows Authentication.

Home > Technology > What's an M7 Coprecessor?
With the release of their newest phone, the iPhone 5S, Apple introduces the installment of the M7 motion-sensing coprocessor. The M7 will be able to detect and read motion constantly while managing to preserve and extend the phone's battery life. Motion-sensing technology in previous models of the iPhone worked under the phone's main processor, which (when opened) would interfere with other applications, resulting in battery drainage. The M7 is unique in that it works separately from the main processor.
In addition to providing greater energy efficiency, the M7 is an important step in further developing technology that is recognized and controlled by gesture. This means that products will be even more intuitive and user-friendly while saving energy. Currently, motion-sensing technology is used by fitness apps like Nike Fit and Argus, but in the future motion-sensing technology could expand to track average heart-rate and stress-levels. This knowledge could be a powerful tool in monitoring overall well-being. Other phones like the Motorola Moto X allow users to operate the phone with some gesture and motion-based cues. Though this technology is in the developing phases, it could be advantageous in a more hands-free and user-friendly phone experience for people of all ages.


LOS ANGELES – APR 25, 2012 – The organizers of Downtown Film Festival Los Angeles (DFFLA), a nonprofit organization, announced today that the 4th edition of the independent cinema showcase will be held July 6-13, 2012.
With the announcement the film festival officially opens its film submissions, and filmmakers everywhere are invited to submit their films for screening consideration through Withoutabox.com (the international film submission service). The festival will showcase all types of films that reflect downtown L.A.'s unique cultural diversity and its mission to present authentically independent cinema in the Film Capital of the World.
The festival also pays homage during each edition to the unique role that downtown Los Angeles played in the development of American cinema. This year's festival will present a to-be-announced Silent Film as part of this tradition.
Over the festival's 10 days this summer, movie-goers can expect a wide variety of film-related experiences including dozens of screenings but also workshops, lectures, art exhibits, receptions and other after-hour events. Venues include Downtown Independent Theater and Los Angeles Center for Digital Art with more venues to be announced later.
During past editions the festival has premiered new films by Spike Lee and Barbara Kopple, showcased features with Paul Newman, Don Cheadle, Guy Pearce and Anna May Wong, and honored with our Independent Film Pioneer Award Seymour Cassel and John Hawkes.
For more information or to submit a film, visit www.dffla.com .

Levi Asher • July 30th, 1994
Beat Generation Places
When young Lucien Carr left his hometown of St. Louis to study at Columbia University in the early forties, he was setting off a chain reaction that would have effects beyond what he could have possibly imagined. An older St. Louis man named David Kammerer was in love with Carr (who was heterosexual) and followed him to New York. Carr would eventually be jailed for Kammerer's murder, but before then Carr would bring a young and impressionable Allen Ginsberg to Kammerer's apartment, where Ginsberg met an odd friend of Kammerer's, another native of St. Louis named William S. Burroughs. Thus two of the elements of the peculiar chemical reaction known as the Beat Generation were now in place.
Unlike Denver, St. Louis did not have much romantic appeal to the Beats, and they did not often visit there. It's a pleasant city, though, with a huge white arch on the banks of the Mississippi River, representing the gateway to the West.
Besides William S. Burroughs, St. Louis has been the birthplace of several other seminal figures, such as T. S. Eliot, who promptly left to become as British as he possibly could, so that today half the people who've heard of T. S. Eliot think he was British. Even more cool was Chuck Berry, who once recorded an album called 'From St. Louis to Liverpool,' but never claimed to actually be British himself. I'm a huge Chuck Berry fan (come on, the guy is a lyrical genius), and years ago when I was married I dragged my wife with me on a trip to St. Louis to search out the house where Berry lives, in a suburb called Wentzville (George Thorogood wrote a song about this town, 'Back to Wentzville'). We found Chuck listed in the phone book, gazed in wonder at his large estate, and went back to the hotel. I don't think my choice of a vacation spot particularly helped the marriage, in retrospect. We also took an elevator to the top of the Arch, and drove through the streets of East St. Louis, Illinois, one of the most impoverished areas in the country, where Chop Suey joints and honky-tonks line the streets. I wished Jack Kerouac could have seen the town as I saw it that day. I think he would have found quite a few Dharma Bums there.
No Responses to "St. Louis"
by Levi Asher Saturday, July 23, 1994 02:01 pm
Jack Kerouac was born Jean-Louis Kerouac, a French-Canadian child on March 12, 1922 in working-class Lowell, Massachusetts. Ti Jean spoke a local dialect of French called joual before he learned English. The youngest of three children, he was heartbroken when his older brother Gerard died of rheumatic fever at the age of nine.
Ti Jean was an intense and serious child, devoted to Memere (his mother) and constantly forming important friendships with other boys, as he would continue to do throughout his life. He was driven to create stories from a young age, inspired first by the mysterious radio show 'The Shadow,' and later by the fervid novels of Thomas Wolfe, the writer he would model himself after ...
The Beat Generation
by Levi Asher Monday, July 25, 1994 12:36 pm
Like the French Impressionist artists of Paris, the Beat writers were a small group of close friends first, and a movement later. The term "Beat Generation" gradually came to represent an entire period in time, but the entire original Beat Generation in literature was small enough to have fit into a couple of cars (at times this nearly happened).

You have to be careful writing about Gary Snyder, because he's such a Zen guy you get the feeling anything you write will be vastly inferior to silence.

Carl Solomon
by Levi Asher Wednesday, August 24, 1994 08:46 am
All the Beat writers inspired themselves with doppelgängers, authentic hipsters who embodied their ideals with great authenticity. Jack Kerouac had Neal Cassady, William S. Burroughs had Herbert Huncke ... and Allen Ginsberg had Carl Solomon.

Ted Joans
by Sean Daniel Singer Friday, January 12, 1996 08:21 am
Ted Joans was born Theodore Jones on July 4, 1928 on a riverboat in Cairo, Illinois. His father, a riverboat entertainer, put him off the boat in Memphis at age twelve and gave him a trumpet. He is a painter, a trumpeter, and a poet.
Poetry at the Old Longshoreman's Hall
by Don Carpenter Friday, September 20, 1996 12:44 pm
Novelist Don Carpenter recalls a joyful moment from 1964, during the height of the beatnik/hippie convergence in San Francisco, when he stepped up to organize a spontaneous (and surprisingly large) poetry reading at the Longshoreman's Hall in Fisherman's Wharf, San Francisco, featuring Gary Snyder, Lew Welch and Philip Whalen.

Q: Java instanceof with changing objects I need a method where i could pass on a parameter which i assume would be a Class (not sure though) and in that method, instanceof would be used to check if x is an instance of the passed Class.
How should i do that? I tried a few things but none worked.

A: How about this:
public boolean checker(Object obj) {
    return obj instanceof SomeClass;
}

or if SomeClass needs to be a parameter:
public boolean checker(Object obj, Class someClass) {
    return someClass.isInstance(obj);
}

or if you want the instance to be someClass and NOT an instance of a subclass of someClass:
public boolean checker(Object obj, Class someClass) {
    return someClass.equals(obj.getClass());
}

A: Use Class.isInstance(Object).

VIDEO: Bay Area Concert Calendar: Aug. 28-Sept. 3

RIFF wants you to get out to more shows! To help you with that, here are our picks for where to go and who to see next week. RIFF's video concert series features artists of all genres, with a focus on the best hidden gems the local music scene has to offer. If you're looking for something to do this week, look no further.
Reagan Youth, The Defenders, The Has Beens — Winter's Tavern — Tuesday
Reagan Youth is an anarcho-punk band that formed in the early 80s in New York. They quickly became one of the most important faces in the New York hardcore scene, along with Cro-Mags and Urban Waste.
Frankie Cosmos, Iji, Boy Scouts — Gray Area Art & Technology Theater — Wednesday
If you know the band Porches, then you'll already love Frankie Cosmos. Cosmos is a member of Porches, but lately she has surpassed her contemporaries by starting an even more successful bedroom twee pop project.
Nosaj Thing, Com Truise, Cleopold — The Ritz — Thursday
Thought that ambient music and wonky glitch music were impossible to combine? Well, Nosaj Thing has done it and even formed a label around a similar sound. Both he and Com Truise are releasing new albums this year, so come to hear new synthetics.
Kool Keith — The New Parish — Thursday
Kool Keith is playing a show near you! That also means Dr. Octagon, Dr. Dooom, Mr. Nogatco and Sinister 6000 are coming, too. Kool Keith has created multiple personas for himself because he can rap in so many different styles, yet his quality has never diminished from mass quantity. He is a true one-man rapping show and an influential figure in multiple styles of hip-hop.
Die Antwoord, Gucci Mane — Bill Graham Civic Auditorium — Saturday
An unusual combination, but that's what's cool in 2017. Die Antwoord released a new single this year, "Love Drug," and Gucci Mane released a whole album with Metro Boomin and is already releasing singles for his second album to come out this year, Mr. Davis.

That same year she was selected to begin training for the Polish gymnastics team. For the next ten years, her life revolved around the state run program culminating in her being selected for the National team for the Olympics. The best all-round gymnast in Poland and favored to medal in the uneven bars, a devastating knee injury ended her dream of Olympic glory. She took to the air. At the age of 17, Eva became a trapeze artist & toured Eastern Europe with the Julinek Circus. After a year on the road, she decided to give modeling a try. Her Miss Photo Poland crown led to several Polish film appearances, including the critically acclaimed "Siren". Europe beckoned and she travelled to Norway, Germany, Italy and France, working for such publications as Vogue, Elle, Esquire and Cosmopolitan. She began doing commercials in Europe and, finally, she decided to give the states a shot. She arrived in Miami with $100, limited English and an audition for a Coors Light commercial. Naturally, she booked the spot and, for the next 5 years, she was seen "tapping the Rockies". Other spots for Diet Coke, Pepsi, Levis and many soon followed. She continued modeling around the world but on-camera work was taking up more and more of her time. She has appeared on Friends, The Pretender, VIP and The Drew Carey Show. She currently stars in the Polish reality show, Wives of Hollywood. She is excited to share with her fans all about this amazing platform, Shop MKC.

Over the past few years, Lahore has grown significantly. Areas previously considered 'outskirts' or peripheries, beyond Raiwand or Bedian, are now densely populated. Not only this but major housing schemes such as Bahria Town or extensions and newer phases of DHA have surpassed these limits to cater to a growing demand.
This demand indicates that the population of Lahore is increasing drastically. One major reason for this population increase is urbanisation. Kanwal Bokharey, economic advisor with the USEFP believes "we haven't completely understood the large scale of urbanisation and are still functioning under the pretense that a large part of Pakistan's population is settled in rural areas.
For development, this is a good thing. As Bokharey puts it, "Agricultural economy has to move off from farm to industry, because this is where the jobs are." And, as industry and enterprises grow in Lahore, so does the population. A surplus that the city needs to be anticipated now so that development and infrastructure can be planned accordingly, as opposed to ad hoc planning that only leads to short-term solutions. Such temporary solutions to larger infrastructural problems have become common, as witnessed by the construction of under passes, overhead bridges and signal-free traffic roads.
Even in the last few years, ordinary residents of Lahore have seen traffic and congestion on the rise only. During rush hours, it becomes impossible for commuters to get from one place to another. Long lines and frequent traffic jams are a regular feature. The slightest aberration, such as a car stranded on the canal, can cause the traffic to choke for hours.
Lahore Vision 2035 takes into account all these problems and much more to present a plan for the development of the city over the course of the next few decades. The project is a joint initiative of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Center for Public Policy and Governance (CPPG) at Forman Christian College. The two have also brought on board the Urban Unit of Punjab.
Lahore Vision 2035 not only looks at developing affordable housing for all income groups but also addresses the long-standing concern of public transport.
The plan looks at the development of Lahore from five different perspectives — Transport planning, Real estate markets, Improving trade friendliness, Water, sewerage and Solid waste management and Governance.
Headed by Imdad Hussain, the Center for Public Policy has carried out research in all five areas after looking at the research already done and talking to experts on all fields. The purpose of public seminars is to discuss the plan with the real stake holders — the people.
The idea is to transform Lahore into a citizen–focused city. In a public seminar held on October 11, Jeffery Bakken, Provincial Director for Punjab from the USAID, stressed the need for "ownership, transparency and equality of the public" in relation to developmental projects.
So far, this has been a major critique of the developmental work carried out in the city. A large number of our development projects forget to address the needs of the people. How does the signal-free Ferozepur Rd help the people living in low-economy housing in kainchi? Does it make access easier to these densely populated areas?
Lahore Vision 2035 addresses these concerns at multiple levels. It not only looks at developing affordable housing for all income groups but also addresses the long-standing concern of public transport. It also takes these concerns to a broader level by addressing the growth of trade and the infrastructure that needs to be put into place to ensure that the city is able to handle that growth. This shows the in-depth research that has gone into formulating this vision.
"Goods transport usually employs the urban poor of the city. Ban on trucks during the daytime is not enough. There should be provisions for cart pushers which still carry goods around Lahore and carry goods in narrow lanes and alleys where trucks cannot go, without polluting or using expansive fuel." This is one solution that the project proposes.
The positive development, though, is that the project has taken on board various people who have worked on urbanisation and remained closely associated with planning and development. These include Mazhar Iqbal, a transport expert, Pervaiz Qureshi, Unicorn Consulting/Royal Palm and Golf Country Club, Suleiman Ghani, Senior Policy Advisor USAID Firms, and Dr Nasir Javed, Chief Executive Officer of the Urban Unit.
The final aim of the project — to achieve a coherent and well-researched development vision for the city, setting an example for other cities — remains the need of the day. This is not the first time that such a master plan has been formed.
Developmental vision for the city was established in The Master Plan of 1966, then again in 1973, and more recently in one for 2021. Very little of these plans was actually implemented over the successive changes in government.


It was late afternoon in Way Muli Village, Lampung Selatan District. With a friendly smile on his face, Jumani handed a stack of assessment forms that have been filled from his interview with several persons with disabilities in the community that day.
Jumani is part of the team of around 10 persons with disabilities who have been recently trained by Arbeiter-Samariter-Bund (ASB) to conduct an assessment of the impact of the tsunami in Sunda Strait – particularly in severaldevastated villages in the sub-district of Rajabasa, Lampung Selatan. The assessment focuses on identifying persons with disabilities and learning the impact of the tsunami including to their livelihood.
"It's funny because normally in late afternoon like this I would go out looking for fish, now I'm out looking for my peers, persons with disabilities in the neighbouring villages, to be interviewed," says Jumani jokingly. Before the tsunami hit his village of East Wai Muli, Jumani worked as a fisherman. He used a small boat that belongs to a group of fishermen, which they normally used to catch fish not far from the shoreline. Now, just like 67 other fishermen in the village, Jumani lost his boat due to the tsunami.
"My boat took me to the shore safely, a few hours after the tsunami. But then the waves were still very big, even after the tsunami. When I came back the next morning, my boat was totally wrecked" Jumani explains.
That eventful night of December 22, 2018, Jumani happened to be out fishing together with his 4 friends. After the eruption of Anak Krakatau, he saw a huge rising tide coming from the west side of the mountain. "I desperately wanted to scream out of my lungs to remind the people in my village that a very high wave was coming to hit them. But the roar of the waves was nothing like I had heard before, and then everything happened so quickly. I could only hold on to my boat and helplessly watch as the huge wave hit my village, right when they were sleeping" recalls Jumani.
In his helplessness, Jumani saw two persons were heaved into the open water. He and his fellow fishermen in the boat took an immediate response to help them. Jumani and his friends were able to save those two persons from the sea, but the mourning over the disaster isstill overwhelming. "If only people knew what to do when disaster strikes, more lives would have been saved," Jumani says in a grieving tone.
On another note, Jumani highlights his experience surviving the tsunami as a person with disabilities. "I know that persons with disabilities like me would face extra difficulties evacuating during a disaster, so I'm happy that now I can reach out to more persons with disabilities together with ASB" Jumani asserted.
In addition to the assessment, ASB is also working with the local Disabled People Organisations (DPOs) to conduct outreach and teach safety messages regarding earthquake, volcanic eruptions and tsunamis, the three main hazards in the area. ASB trains and mentors the DPO members to distribute the safety messages to their communities in Lampung Selatan.

CONSULTANTS FACING SCRUTINY
MERLE AUGUSTIN Staff WriterSUN-SENTINEL
Town commissioners decided on Tuesday to interview three applicants that have submitted proposals for a study of the town's management.
One of the applicants has no management consulting experience. Another applicant did an earlier study for the town that commissioners have said they were not fully satisfied with.
Commissioner Thomas Reid proposed the management study last October.
He has said the town's building and finance departments are run improperly and Town Manager Mary Ann Mariano is heavy-handed and slow to respond to commissioners' requests.
The other commissioners gave him permission to research and submit the names of three firms for the job, which town attorneys said did not require being put out to bid.
Cody & Associates, a Cocoa Beach management consultant firm, asked for $4,900 to do the study, while David M. Griffith & Associates, Tallahassee, asked for $25,000.
Griffith had been hired by Mariano to do a study of the building department, but commissioners said it contained out-of-date solutions.
Pompano Beach attorney Daniel Stump also asked for $25,000. Reid said Stump had no management consulting experience, but he knew of his legal work.
The commissioners decided to hold a special meeting to interview the applicants after Mariano expressed concerns over the differences in proposal prices and questioned Reid's interview process.
Mayor Arlin Voress chastised Mariano for doubting Reid's ethics and ability and called her comments inappropriate.
Still, the commissioners reluctantly agreed to hold their own interviews with the applicants after Town Attorney Tom Sliney also suggested it.
"This is a particularly important project," Sliney said.
"You are talking about the type of government you want to have and changes you might want to make. You are a public body and for public perception, I think you ought to interview those people before you vote on them," he said.
In other business, the commission approved on Tuesday the purchase of a $20,000 video-recording and broadcasting system for town meetings.
Commissioners also approved an agreement with Sprint PCS allowing the company to survey a location in the back of Town Hall as a possible site for a cell-phone antenna.


While increased access to the internet and computing devices has been instrumental to the growth and institutionalization of the global movement toward open educational resources (OER), technology choices (often made by educational institutions – and their vendors – on behalf of students) can serve to amplify and/or mute key features of openness. Indeed, the often unspoken relationship between OER and educational technology can be fraught with misplaced assumptions, red flags, value conflicts, and licensing complications.
That the U.S. Department of Education's Office of Educational Technology has an initiative and policy position on OER and not on open source software speaks to some of the broader political and practical challenges facing the field.
