Karpat Art offers a great variety of works by Transcarpathian visual artists, past and present. I greatly encourage you to explore its galleries in order to experience the spirit of the Carpathian land through the collection of the artworks they hold. Here is a portrait by Andriy Kotska, an Uzhorod native, of a girl in a traditional dress. The immediacy of the hasty brushstrokes brings the viewer right into her presence, and the light illuminating her face and highlighting the whites adds to the feeling of festivity and hope.


In this post we hear from Christy Tending. I am delighted she agreed to take part in this series of interviews and share her thoughts with us all. Christy is a self-care mentor and you can find out a lot more about her and her work at the end of this article, so please do scroll down and take a look.
I recognize that introversion doesn't always look one way. There are a lot of facets to being an introvert. In my case, I appear very outgoing, and I'm a confident public speaker, even though I identify strongly as an introvert. For me, the best ways to connect with others are in small doses and in small groups. I know that an all-day networking event or conference exhausts me. I prefer to interact in smaller chunks of time and in more intimate settings.
I also need a lot of time to recharge after I've spent time connecting. It takes a lot out of me, so I always need to build in a buffer so that I can recover afterward.
That being said, as an introvert, I'm really comfortable being by myself. As a result, I think my introversion makes me more confident and authentic. Because I'm so at ease on my own, I feel less pressure to impress others and tend to get to the heart of the matter quickly. This kind of real talk helps me connect with the people I'm meant to connect to.
There are a number of facets of my introversion that I see as real assets in my life and work. The first is that I'm very internally-motivated. I don't need lots of external validation. Instead, I'm driven to create and make an impact from a purely internal place. I don't thrive on others' energy, so my motivations aren't contingent on others' opinions either.
The second is my intuition. My mom likes to say that when I was a baby, I didn't interact much, but she could tell I was absorbing everything. I've been really quiet my whole life, but as a result, I'm highly intuitive. This other kind of knowing has served me really well.
Respect yourself and don't try to be anyone else. I agonized for years trying to be an extrovert, and I could have saved myself a lot of time and agony if I'd just allowed myself to be who I really am. Introverts are awesome, and we bring a lot to the party of life. It might be cliche, but the best way to succeed is by allowing yourself to be exactly who you are, without apology.


How long does hummus last? Does it ever go bad? Is there anything that can be done to make it last longer? What if you eat hummus that has already been stale? If you have these questions, do not be left wondering. Read this post and we have the answers!
It depends on – this is the answer to the question about the length of time at which you can still consume hummus. There is no universal answer as there are different factors that will come into play. Their storage life depends on their type or manner of preparation.
For store-purchased hummus, they usually last for three to ten days when they are kept in the fridge unopened. On the other hand, once they have already been opened, they will last for four to six days inside the fridge.
If you want the store-purchased hummus to last longer, put it in the freezer. If it has been unopened, it can last for up to 8 months. The freezing temperature, as long as it is sealed, makes hummus longer lasting.
Freezing, however, is not often recommended. When thawed, the hummus properties can be altered, which results in significant changes in texture and flavor.
The best way to check is to look at the Best By Date provided by the manufacturer. You can add one week after the date if the hummus is kept inside the fridge. If not, strictly follow the date stated.
Because of using fresher ingredients, the storage life of homemade hummus is usually shorter. If it is stored in the fridge, it can last for three to five days. Some might opt to put it in the freezer, but this is not recommended because thawing leads to alterations in flavor, as pointed out earlier.
To make hummus last longer, proper storage is necessary. Just like in the case of other foods, right handling is critical in making it fresher even after several days.
Once hummus has been opened, keep it in the fridge as soon as possible. Make sure it is tightly sealed or the cap is closed properly. Penetration of air can affect its quality and lessen its shelf life, even when already kept inside the refrigerator.
If you are not yet ready to consume packaged hummus, avoid opening. Once opened, it naturally attracts the growth of microbe. In turn, it speeds up spoilage.
You should also know how to spot signs of spoilage in hummus to easily tell if you can still eat it or if it needs to be thrown away. Aside from visual signs, its smell can also be indicative of its freshness. If it smells sour, do not attempt to eat it.
One of the obvious indications that hummus is bad is when molds start to appear. They can appear as blue patches or green spots. As a sign of rotting, this means hummus must be discarded right away.
In extreme cases, you will see bubbles on the top of the hummus. This is especially the case if it has been left unrefrigerated for a long time. Obviously, this means that the hummus is no longer safe to be eaten.
Hummus lasts longer when it is frozen, but this can negatively affect taste when it is thawed. For frozen store-bought hummus, shelf life is six to eight months.
For store-bought hummus, if it is bought packaged and if left in the fridge unopened, it can last for three to ten days. When opened, on the other hand, it lasts up to six days.
For homemade hummus, it can last up to three to five days, both when frozen or kept inside the fridge.
Sistema Klip It Collection Lunch Cube to Go Food Storage Container is one product that you might want to have if you want to keep hummus fresher for a longer span of time. With its air-tight seal, hummus can remain at its best even through several days.

An FBI Agent was wounded on Saturday in a drive-by shooting in Brooklyn, according to the New York Post.
The agent was conducting surveillance when the two men pulled alongside his vehicle and opened fire. The agent was able to return fire, as were two other people in the vehicle with him.
The suspects—identified by sources as 31-year-old Ronnel Watson and 29-year-old Hector Amissah—were arrested Saturday after the shooting.
The agent was transported to a nearby hospital with injuries that were not believed to be life-threatening.


Evans from here in Texas is rated by some as the best RB in the nation. He's being fed that SEC BS daily and is probably going to fall for that nonsense.
His brother hated Texas A&M and so did he for a while, but they suddenly got a little friendly with the Aggies, if you know what I mean. SEC handouts are as common as a meth head in Houston.
I think accusing another school of handouts ($$), is no different than other schools thinking there's something crooked at Clemson.
Let's remember when we were happy to get one 5 star on campus, let alone 6!!
Dabo built this program on recruiting the right players, regardless of "stars", and getting them "ALLIN"
Now we're able to recruit nationwide. We won't get everyone, don't have room for all of them, but I think we'll get the right ones to keep us at a championship level.
Clemson can't control the players, and their reasons, for deciding to play for another school.
Let's be happy with the players that do commit, and watch them grow into champions.
Article failed to mention that.
Re: I'll be there too.
Yea.....but how many stars do you have?
D.J.'s brother is a prospect, too.
You will be impressed when you see him.
he is a rising freshman, who plays with the "big boys" already.
twill is correct you know. Article did fail to mention that. We all need to be there. Bring a friend or ten or twenty. Let's make it loud and be proud.
As much as we all think we might can affect things with our tnet knowledge, we can actually affect things by being there. Players, coaches and current teammates deserve that tiny little bit!!!!!
+1... and on a small fixed income w doc bills, it means a lot.
Not sure I ever remember this many 5-star recruits being on campus at one time before. Not even for nationally televised clashes.
Then again, the orange versus the white may be more competitive than most games we play this season. Hopefully.
What has me amazed is how few 3 stars there are. This time last year they were being seriously discussed. This year there are less than a handful in the top twenty.
wonder what Capehart up to this weekend - Basketball?
3 words - oh my god! His acceleration if off-the-charts. I love that he watches the blocks develop. Some really fast RBs are too impatient to do that. But once he picks an opening in the line, he accelerates through that like nothing I've seen. Wow.


c.1600, from French démocratique, from Medieval Latin democraticus, from Greek demokratikos "of or for democracy; favoring democracy," from demokratia (see democracy). Earlier was democratian (1570s).
As a political faction name, from 1790 in reference to France. U.S. political usage (with a capital D) attested from c.1800. The party originally was the Anti-Federal party, then the Democratic-Republican (Democratic for short). It formed among those opposed to extensive powers for the U.S. federal government. The name of the party was not formally shortened to Democratic until 1829. Democratic socialism is attested from 1849.

TALLAHASEE, Fla. – After a long weekend that saw the No. 25 Florida State women's tennis team (2-1) earn its first trip to the ITA National Indoor Championships, the Seminoles will take yet another three day road trip this weekend to face No. 33 Illinois and No. 2 Northwestern.
Up first for Florida State will be the Illini Friday, February 5, who bring in No. 33. Rachael White as their lone singles ranked player. The 'Noles lead the all-time series record 5-1 with the last meeting being in 2008 where FSU swept Illinois 7-0 in Tallahassee.
The quick turnaround then features the Garnet and Gold facing the hardest team of the season in Northwestern on Sunday. The Wildcats will look to No. 12 Maria Mosolova, No. 48 Samantha Murray and No. 85 Kate Turvy on the singles front with No. 20 Brittany Wowchuk and Elena Chernyakova, No. 21 Lauren Lui and Samantha Murray, No. 33 Stacey Lee and Murray and No. 37 Lui and Stacey Lee representing Northwestern on the doubles side.
Although FSU has played against Northwestern in several tournaments throughout the years, Coach Hyde and the Seminoles will be looking for its first dual-match win over the Wildcats as they lead the all-time series record 5-0 with the last meeting being in 1992 under former head coach Alice Green.
The 'Noles will look to No. 23 Lauren McCreless, No. 62 Francesca Segarelli and No. 115 Amy Sargeant to lead the squad throughout the weekend. Juniors Katie Rybakova and Federica Suess are also looking to continue their winning streak. Rybakova has won her last four matches and Suess is the only Seminole to still be undefeated this spring with a 6-0 record.

Rudy Giuliani: I Was 'Wrong' to Claim Trump Didn't Sign Trump Tower Moscow Letter of Intent
Aaron P. Bernstein/Getty
Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani says he was "wrong" to claim the president had not signed a letter of intent for the Trump Tower project in Moscow before the 2016 election. "I was wrong if I said it," Giuliani told CNN on Wednesday. "I haven't seen the quote, but I probably meant to say there was never a deal, much less a signed one." Over the weekend, Giuliani was quoted by the network saying that "no one signed" a letter of intent to go forward with the project. But CNN obtained a copy of the October 2015 letter, which reportedly showed Trump had in fact signed it. The non-binding document was also reportedly signed by Andrey Rozov, the owner of a Russian firm who would have developed the property. Michael Cohen, Trump's former personal attorney, claimed he lied about Trump's knowledge of the Trump Tower project when pleading guilty on one count of making false statements to Congress. While Cohen previously claimed Trump stopped discussions of the Moscow deal in January 2016, he reportedly later told prosecutors the discussions continued into the general-election season.

Q: What are the conceptual differences between live reloading, hot reloading, and hot module replacement? I've seen a lot of posts and publications about live reloading, hot reloading, and hot module replacement, referring to different practices to reflect changes in code immediately in the browser when working in the web client/FE layer.
I have a fair understanding of what are these terms referring to, my only question is if these concepts are properly defined somewhere and which are the specific differences between them.

A: So I just came across the same question today and thought it's good to share my findings:

*

*Live ReloadTriggers an app wide reload that listens to file changes

*Hot Module ReplacementIs the same as Live Reload with the difference that it only replaces the modules that have been modified, hence the word Replacement. The advantage of this is that it doesn't lose your app state e.g. your inputs on your form fields, your currently selected tab etc. Here's a full-blown explanation from another SO answer.

Lastly, Hot Reloading is just short for Hot Module Replacement.
Here's a explanatory video which you can look at and differentiate LR from HMR.

Démodokos (řecky Δημοδόκος, latinsky Demodocus) je v řecké mytologii slepý pěvec, který žil na dvoře fajáckého krále Alkinoa.

V bájích se vyskytuje pouze v příběhu Odysseova bloudění při návratu z trojské války. Když jeho loď ztroskotala u břehů ostrova Scherie, dostalo se mu přátelského pohostinství u krále Alkinoa, jeho manželky Arété a jejich přívětivé dcery Nausiky. Přijali ztroskotance, aniž by měli tušení, o jak vzácného hosta jde. Při hostinách bavil hosty slepý Démodokos, který byl oblíbencem Múz, od nichž byl obdarován velkým pěveckým talentem i představivostí.

Společnost mu s obdivem naslouchala, málokdo si ale všiml, že jejich neznámý host často ukrývá svou tvář, aby nebylo vidět jeho dojetí. Poslouchal zpěv Démodokův o bojích před Trójou, který líčil události tak věrně a podrobně, jako by byl jejich účastníkem. Později pobavil posluchače písní o lásce boha války Area a bohyně krásy a lásky Afrodíty. Odysseus pěvci vyslovil svůj obdiv a jeho zpěv označil za vzácný dar bohů. Pak požádal Démodoka, aby ještě zazpíval o posledních událostech války, kdy Řekové postavili velkého dřevěného koně, do jehož útrob se nechalo zavřít pár význačných bojovníků, kteří se tak lstí dostali za trojské hradby a tím přivodili zkázu velkého města.

Také při tomto zpěvu byl Odysseus dojat, jeho slzy zpozoroval i král Alkinoos a tak zatím neznámý host prozradil svou identitu. Fajákové potom Odysseovi vystrojili velkou pevnou loď, která ho přivezla zpět na jeho Ithaku.

Příběh pěvce Démodoka je vylíčen v VIII. zpěvu Homérovy Odysseie. Odysseus mu zde vyjadřuje svůj obdiv slovy: ... "Tebe já, Démodoku, zvlášť velebím nad všechny lidi. Tebe buď Apollón učil, neb dcera Diova, Múza... ... ihned po celém světě chci rozhlásit veškerým lidem, tobě že božský zpěv byl vštípen milostí boží!"

V antice byl Démodokos chápán jako Homérův autoportrét.

Developments in Literacy (DIL) educates and empowers underprivileged students, especially girls, by operating student-centered model schools; and provides high-quality professional development to teachers and principals across Pakistan.
DIL believes that no child in Pakistan, no matter how poor or underprivileged should be denied access to quality education. All children should have equal opportunity to reach their full potential and contribute toward the socio-economic betterment of their communities.


BRET MICHAELS has added another chapter to his long-awaited autobiography to include his recent health crisis.
The rocker suffered a brain haemorrhage and a mild stroke last month (May10) and learned he had a hole in the heart - and he decided the scare should be a part of his memoir, Roses & Thorns.
He tells Billboard.com, "I don't think Simon & Schuster has ever had a book like this, where every day something else happens to me. This book was supposed to come out June 23 of last summer."
Michaels reveals he delayed the book's first release so he could write about his prop-crashing incident at the 2009 Tony Awards, where he was left battered and bleeding after a stage curtain fell on him.
He adds, "This book is going to be like War and Peace times six. It's ridiculous."
Michaels now hopes to have Roses & Thorns out by the end of the year (10).

The Power of Poppy Pendle, by Natasha Lowe
Poppy Pendle is different – really different. Poppy Pendle is magic. She is a witch who doesn't want to be a witch: She doesn't want to brew potions, or cast spells, or ride a broomstick. Flying on a broomstick makes her sick, in fact. Poppy wants to bake instead. Baking is her passion. It is her life, and she is devoted to it, and absolutely extraordinary at it. She was literally born into it... You see, Poppy was born on the floor of Patisserie Marie Claire, a small French bakery.
But her parents have other ideas. For some reason, in Poppy's world, magic is exclusively female, and runs in certain families. The gift of magic occurs to a girl in Poppy's family only every four generations, so Mr. and Mrs. Pendle are very excited. They want her to pursue a life of magic. They want her to use her gift.
So, rather than sending her to a regular elementary school, they send her to Ruthersfield Academy, a school for witches like Poppy. But Poppy hates Ruthersfield, where everything revolves around magic. Besides, the inside of the building is hot and stuffy. And the other students tease her like there's no tomorrow because she would rather bake cupcakes than cast spells.
After three years like this, Poppy can't stand it anymore. She runs away to Patisserie Marie Claire (she doesn't realize that she was born there; her parents never told her). Marie Claire Gentille, the woman who runs the patisserie, lets her in, and Poppy stays there for a week before her parents find her and bring her back home. Now Poppy is angry, and rightly so. The patisserie is the only place she has ever felt truly happy, and it has been taken away from her.
The next day, at Ruthersfield, the girls are taught a very special spell, a spell that, when used with enough emotion, could turn something into a solid stone statue. That night Poppy gets into a serious fight with her parents, and she turns them to stone. And her parents aren't the only things to turn to stone: Animals, fish, and other people get changed too, as well as Poppy's own heart.
This is a good book for younger readers, 8 or 9 and up (even though Poppy curses her parents and turns them to stone, the book does have a happy ending). I read this book for the first time in second or third grade, and I thought it was a lot of fun to read. But I hadn't read it in at least 2 years, until this week. I still liked it, but it definitely seemed a bit more childish than the books I like reading nowadays. So maybe kids over age 10 or 11 might feel the same.
However, I still love one of the best parts of this book: the 12 recipes of Poppy's at the end of the novel!
Daddy's Afterthoughts: Julia takes a step back from YA titles into a younger read this go-around. This book may be a little much for kids who are just into chapter books, but if your children are already reading longer, substantial YA fare (Harry Potter, The Hunger Games, Golden Compass, The Giver, A Wind in the Door, The Outsiders) then they have probably missed their Poppy Pendle window. Perhaps not coincidentally, Poppy herself is only 10. Lovers of the movie Frozen will recognize touches of Elsa in her magical-power-run-amok-and-throwing-a-hissy-fit-and-shutting-herself-away-from-the-world phase. If Hogwarts had an elementary school, and Elsa attended it, and dressed in all black, she might be Poppy Pendle. Actually, that's not a bad way to think of the book. For readers 8, 9, 10, 11, who are not ready for 500+ page fantasy tomes, this book will do the trick. And some of the recipes do look really yummy.
WELCOME to my blog about books I have read, and books I recommend.
If you are looking for books in the age range of 9-16 (grades 4-10), then maybe I can help you decide which book to read! If you are a stude...

The creation of a wildlife habitat was a principle consideration during the planning and construction of Widow's Walk Golf Course. A links-type course built built on the site of an abandoned gravel quarry adjacent to the scenic North River Basin and within view of the Atlantic Ocean, Widow's Walk is home to a multitude of waterfowl and migratory and indigenous birds. However, many years of mining in the area destroyed most of the native plant communities which created a significant challenge to the making of "America's first environmental demonstration project".
Designed by renowned environmental architect Mike Hurdzan, Widow's Walk was designed to utilize and enhance the site's natural resources, special plant and animal communities, and wetlands. While most golf courses are created by cutting down trees, Widow's Walk's design was considerate of the area's uncommon habitat. The plant communities and elevational changes at Widow's Walk is so great that it attracts a great number of migratory birds. 73 species were found here this summer by observers from the Massachusetts Audubon Society.
From the outset, David Clapp, Director of the Massachusetts Audubon Society's South Shore Regional Office, was actively involved in the design of the course and the ensuing natural history efforts. Clyde Gurney, a Scituate resident and long-standing birder, contributed greatly to a joint effort aimed at establishing a more receptive and supporting environment for bird life at Widow's Walk.
Why? Why make such a big deal out of birds and other wildlife when the purpose of a golf course, by definition, is just a place to play golf?
The most obvious answer, responds Audubon's Clapp is that birds are an environmentally sound way of lowering the insect population, which benefits everyone in the area, especially golfers using the course. In addition, the development of a bird-friendly course provides nesting and roosting opportunities for many cavity-nesting birds.
Further, according to Mr. Clapp, an environmentally friendly golf course should include birds as part of its environmental operation. It is part of the "environmental project that is the very essence of Widow's Walk," says Mr. Clapp, "This course tries to demonstrate a holistic approach to the environment."
To which Mr. Gurney added, "Besides it's a good thing to do!"
One of the most visible tacks taken by Messrs. Clapp and Gurney was to construct and erect a substantial number of "bird boxes" on the course to replace the natural "bird cavities" that were destroyed by the earlier mining operation. These boxes house large populations of Tree swallows and Eastern Bluebirds.
Interested in nature and birds as a youngster, Clyde did a lot of reading about birds while growing up in Rockland and built his first bird house when he was just 15 years old. He was later a Boy Scout counselor, supervising the young scouts working towards their nature badges. He began quest to utilize golf courses to support bird life in the area in 1940 at the Marshfield Country Club, where he worked to establish purple martin colony.
The Purple Martin is a large swallow (the largest in fact) that eats only flying insects, which makes it a darling of both man and the environment. Purple Martins arrive here from Brazil (having made several stops along the way} in early April. They live in "colonies", where they procreate and then prepare for their return trip to Brazil in August.
When the Pilgrims arrived in Plymouth in 1620 they discovered the Indians had gourds with holes in them hung on trees around their campsites. The early settlers soon learned what the Indians knew, that Purple Martins are drawn to the gourds where they build their nests and establish a colony.
Clyde used special Purple Martin houses constructed of aluminum to establish his first "colony" at Marshfield. It proved successful so he subsequently replicated his efforts at the Halifax Country Club, where he also put up Purple Martin houses and developed another colony.
He has since turned his attention to Widow's Walk, where he has put up nearly 100 bird boxes around the course during the past three years, far enough away from fairways and greens to avoid creating unwanted obstructions for the golfers, while hoping to keep the houses themselves out of harms way. (One house was split by an errant drive, but it didn't deter a swallow from building its nest in it).
All of the houses have been built by Clyde in a machinery shop in Rockland, where he still works a full-time job, bellying his 84+ years on this planet.
We are starting to draw Purple Martins here but as yet haven't established a colony. There has been a problem with House Sparrows, which according to David Clapp, are 'alien birds' non-native to the area and hostile to the Purple Martins and other cavity nesters.
There is a need to put "door stops" in the Purple Martin houses after the birds depart the area for the winter to prevent the House Sparrows from occupying the houses. The House Sparrows can fill the nesting holes with grasses and prevent the houses from being used by martins the next season. Unlike other summer homes in Scituate, Purple Martin houses are not available for "winter rentals."
The Purple Martin population has remained stable over the past couple decades. There are currently about 100 pair at Marshfield, Halifax, Widows Walk and the Audubon Society's North River Wildlife Sanctuary in Marshfield. These birds represent roughly one-third of the Purple Martins in the state.
On the other hand the Bluebird population in this area is showing a marked increase, according to Mr. Clapp. Bluebirds are also insect eaters and quite welcome on golf courses.
Eastern Bluebirds used to be so rare in this area that when Clyde had a pair of them at his home in Middleboro in 1960, the Boston Globe sent out a photographer to take pictures, and then ran the pix in the Globe rotogravure section.
There were 30 pair of tree swallows and three pair of blue birds, both excellent insect eaters, at Widow's Walk here this past summer. Mr. Gurney has put up 50 new bird boxes for bluebirds at Widow's Walk this past year, as well as a number artificial gourds made of plastic that are hung from telephone poles.
The artificial gourds attract purple martins much as they did for the Indians many years ago. The artificial houses work even better, however, because they are not as susceptible to weather damage and can be opened and cleaned out after each migratory season. Neither House Sparrows not European Starlings (another alien and invasive species) seem to use the gourds for nesting.
Resident "Birder" Clyde Gurney (left) of Scituate and Audubon volunteer Dan Furbish of Marshfield look on as Taylor Price (atop the ladder) of Scituate secures a Common Flicker nesting box in a tree adjacent to the second green. Mr. Gurney relies on volunteers to help install and maintain the many bird boxes that are located at Widow's Walk.
In November Clyde, assisted by Audubon volunteers, put up five Common Flicker houses (a large woodpecker) and four Screech Owl houses around the course. There is also a plan to put up a recently constructed Osprey (fish hawk) platform atop of a 30' telephone pole that will be erected across the Driftway in the North River marsh.
Clyde intends to add more bird boxes in the future, although there is a point where you can saturate an area with too many houses. Bird populations can only support so many boxes and will leave empty houses that are grouped too close together. How many boxes are too many? He doesn't know exactly, but will experiment until he finds the right combination.
An errant golf shot cracked this nesting box, but it failed to deter a mother sparrow from building her nest and laying her eggs in it. Every effort is made to keep the boxes out of harms way, but even the best laid plans sometimes run a stray.
#1 The slope to the left side of the 1st fairway grades up to the capped landfill and provides nesting habitat for tree swallows, one of the several species of swallows you will see at Widow's Walk. The houses on posts along the slope are nesting boxes provided for these insect-eating birds. The coarse vegetation on the hillside offers shelter and seeds to migrating sparrows in the late summer.
#2 Large oaks of several species frame the 2nd hole. This is an area where gray squirrels, Blue Jays, and American Crows might easily be seen. The acorns provide food for all three of these species in the late summer and fall. Blue Jays will carry acorns as far as three miles from this site, burying them for later use as food, but many will be lost or forgotten and will eventually become oak trees as part of the natural cycle of forest regeneration.
#3 Along the left side of the 3rd fairway, in some tupelo trees, there is a wooden box that has been provided for use by either Common Flickers, a large ground-feeding woodpecker, or by Eastern Screech Owls, one of our common smaller owls. Throughout the course there are boxes for cavity-nesting birds to use. Some are designed for Wood Ducks. The smaller ones are for Eastern Bluebirds and Tree Swallows.
#4 The large ash tree, which stands on the left side of the 4th fairway, provides an unwanted obstruction for golfers but a welcome perching spot for two fly-catching birds that commonly nest here, the Eastern Kingbird and the Great-crested Flycatcher.
#5 Sumacs and coarse weeds growing in the area near the 5th tee provide nesting sites for some field birds. This is an area where the Eastern Towhee and Field Sparrow are commonly found.
#6 The bird houses along the 6th fairway, that look like pieces of birch trees on a pole (are actually made out of plastic PCB pipe) entice chickadees and Tufted Titmice that naturally nest in excacations in old birch trees.
#8 The 8th tee almost always offers wildlife sightings. The pond below usually has ducks, gulls and Canada Geese on or around it. The most commonly seen species are mallard ducks and herring or great black-backed gulls. Grewen-wingled Teal, American Coot, and Ring-billed Gulls also visit the pond.
#9 The 9th tee provides one more panorama of the North River Basin, showing salt marshes, upland oak forests, the sand hills of North Marshfield and the contours created by the gravel mining here at the golf course. From this vista you may observe, depending on the time of the year, swallows feeding on insects in the air, crows digging up or planting acorns or feeding on the ground, or gulls flying in and around the ponds and back toward the ocean. During the month of May the willow trees and other shrubs that line the pond can be full of migrant wablers, videos, and flycatchers.
#12 The wooden bridge that takes you around to the fairway on the 12th hole may have Eastern Phoebes, a common flycatcher nesting underneath it. The wetland in front of the tees have been managed to promote vegetation diversity which provides additional habitat for a wide variety of birds, reptiles, and amphibians.
#13 The 13th hole carries along one of the man-make ponds used for irrigation. This pond is a likely place to find shorebirds in the spring and fall. Canada Geese through out the year, and migrant ducks in the spring and fall.
#17 Widow's Walk's "signature hole offers a most spectacular panorama the North River Basin, the ever-changing pastels painted across the nearby salt marshes and multi-treed forests of Audubon's North River bird sanctuary in North Marshfield. It is a sight to be appreciated for its beauty.

When is an Unconditional offer not Unconditional?
At SACU we were curious to find out a little more about the recent increase in the number of Unconditional offers made to young people in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
Are all Unconditional offers the same?
These are "Conditional" Unconditional offers !?!
Why are "Conditional" UC offers so bad for students?
UCAS guidance to students is to wait until they have received all their offers before confirming their Firm and Insurance choices. This encourages students to take their time and make informed decisions.
How can the student's support network be expected to help/advise the students when these new "Conditional" Unconditional offers have been sneaked in without any notice / publicity?
How many universities are doing this?
SACU submitted a FOIA request to UCAS find out.
We watch with interest for UCAS' end of cycle report on 29th November!


This weekend on March 3 & 4 2019, Shasta Hankins makeup will provide specialty makeup services for the Sold Out 2019 Angels Over Sandpoint Folllies at the historic Panida Theater in Sandpoint, Idaho.
The Angels Over Sandpoint is a grass roots organization dedicated to helping a community in need. As an all-volunteer non-profit group, we rely on generous benefactors to make our giving possible. Since our inception in 1997, we have been able to put over one million dollars back into our community.
This is an awesome event to benefit the community and Shasta Hankins makeup is proud to be part of it.
Expertise.com's goal is to connect people with the best local experts. We scored makeup artists on more than 25 variables across five categories, and analyzed the results to give you a hand-picked list of the best makeup artists in Spokane, Washington.
Probably the question I get asked the most is about the differences and benefits of airbrush makeup vs traditional makeup. There is a lot of misinformation about the true advantages of airbrushing.
I have over 15 years in both traditional and airbrush makeup. I don't want to start a debate on which is better. Each styles has it's place and time. However, your wedding day is a completely different, unique and special event and so are those high definition wedding photos you will cherish for a lifetime. Because of this, you want the method that is the best for this special event, long lasting and in my opinion, that is airbrushing.
Yes, airbrushing can cost more; however, on your special day the additional cost of airbrushed makeup is really small in the grand scope of wedding costs. When you take into account all of the advantages which an experienced, professional airbrush makeup artist can provide you, you will agree that it is the best choice. Some of these advantages include: goes on light, even, natural, waterproof, holds much longer in any type of weather especially hot and looks fantastic in your high definition wedding photos.
Check out the articles below which provide excellent explanations and the pros and cons (if any) of airbrushing vs traditional makeup. If you have any questions about this or want to set up a trial run to experience these benefits yourself, please feel free to contact me.
Airbrush Makeup – Is it worth it?

Ben Stiller Threatens Trae Young With Non-Silence at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday
Celebrity Knicks fans in the unvaccinated section. / Pool/Getty Images
The Atlanta Hawks stole Game 1 against the New York Knicks on Sunday. After hitting the game-winner, Trae Young repeatedly commented about how quiet it got in Madison Square Garden. This inspired the ultimate response from Knicks fan Ben Stiller.
The Garden will not be quiet on Wednesday. #Knicks https://t.co/cRMvuDJfhm
— Ben Stiller (@RedHourBen) May 24, 2021
"The Garden will not be quiet on Wednesday" is possibly the greatest line of trash talk ever. It sounds like someone threatening someone else who likes to relax by reading in their backyard. Nice peaceful garden you've got here. It'd be a real shame if someone with a boombox and love of power tools moved in next door!
And the fact that Ben Stiller said it is the cherry on top of the sundae. "The Garden will not be quiet on Wednesday" is absolutely something one of his characters would say. Obviously, Derek Zoolander is the most likely to say something like that, but it also sounds like fake like for a Tugg Speedman.
Trae Young should just know that nobody makes the Knicks fans be quiet except for the Knicks.


Hunters in Western Oregon will begin their search for the Black Tail Deer beginning October First. For those who may be successful, the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife is asking for some help in monitoring deer populations.
Hunters can pick up a prepaid mailer at ODFW offices and license sales agents to mail back one of the two middle incisor teeth from their harvest. Michelle Dennehy with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife says the teeth can help determine the deer's age. Successful hunters that mail in a tooth will get a post card in about nine months telling them how old there deer was.


The internet's been all abuzz all weekend over the rumor that Valve could be announcing Half-Life 2 Episode 3 at E3. There was speculation fueled by an image depicting the lambda sign along with the word "Freeman," and there was even in-depth examination of a Team Fortress 2 image that appeared to have a lambda sign hidden in a popped vein on a character's bicep.
Well, it looks like all that unfounded speculation was just that: unfounded. According to fansite Halflife2.net, Gabe Newell has confirmed to them via email (which you can see here that the "Freeman 14th" image is in fact a fake.
Of course, this won't stop the speculation or the rumors. I'm sure that someone on a forum somewhere right now is pointing out that Gabe called the image fake, but didn't say that Episode 3 is not being announced. Here's a message to that guy: STOP IT. This year's E3 rumor mongering is setting a new record for annoying.
We'll find out next week what the surprise is. It could in fact be Episode 3. It could also be something completely unrelated to Half-Life. No matter what it is, you can be sure of two things. It will be good, and it will sell like hotcakes, just like everything else Valve touches.


Hiram Edson was the instrument whom God used to reveal to the early Sabbath-keeping Adventists the meaning of the cleansing of the sanctuary. With Bates and White, he was one of the deep-thinking students who developed the Seventh-day Adventist faith, a self-sacrificing servant of God, an ardent evangelist, and faithful all of his long life on his devotion to Christ. He was at one time a Methodist.
In the 1840's he lived on a farm near Port Gibson, New York, a little town on the Erie Canal almost midway between Albany and Buffalo. A small company of Adventist believers mostly farmers, lived in this area, and they looked to Edson as their leader. His farm was about a mile south of town. At that place the Adventists gathered on October 22, 1844 to await the coming of the King. But Christ did not come as they expected.
The following day in answer to their prayers for light, God opened to Edson - as if in a vision - a scene of wonderment; Christ, our High Priest, entering into the Most Holy place of the Heavenly Sanctuary to begin a special work of judgment prior to His return. Edson shared this light with his friends, Owen Crosier and Dr. F. B. Hahn of nearby Canandaigua. They determined to study the sanctuary and its cleansing from the Biblical viewpoint. The results of their research appeared in their little advent paper published in Canandaigua, the Day Dawn. Later also in the Day Star, Cincinnati. From this point on, light came to the disappointed Adventists and the "why" of their pain and disappointment began to dawn upon them.
It was Edson who advanced funds to purchase the first Seventh-day Adventist press. It was at Edson's home in Port Gibson that the third Sabbath Conference of 1848 was held. Edson sold his farm, turned to preaching and became a successful evangelist. In his later life he labored near Roosevelt, New York. For years he was leader of our work there. He lies buried in the Roosevelt cemetery.

Kochi Metro to be ready by Dec. 2015: Kerala CM Chandy
Kochi Metro, the Rs.5,180 dream project that is expected to solve the travel woes in Kerala's commercial capital, would be completed in "a time bound manner", said Chief Minister Oommen Chandy.
Chandy Monday went around the construction site, before taking part in the director board meeting of Kochi Metro Rail Limited.
"The work is progressing well and would be completed in a time bound manner," said Chandy.
The mega project will run 25 km from Alwaye to Petta. The project is being managed by the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation with its principal advisor E. Sreedharan overseeing it.
According to Chandy, the first train would run Dec 31, 2015. The central government's share of funds is close to Rs.1,000 crore, with the rest coming by way of loans which the state government will avail from funding agencies.
This project was first talked about way back in 2005 when Chandy was the chief minister but it later went into limbo, only to return in full steam when he assumed office in 2011.
Kochi project started work after Bangalore and Hyderabad metros. While Hyderabad is also confident to finish the work as scheduled, Banglore's Namma Metro is still lagging behind the schedule with erected pillars standing testimony without progress on tracks or trains above.

United – DVD review
By Stretford End Arising on	 August 2, 2011 Book/Film Reviews, History, Munich, United History
By Lee Savery
OUT 8th August
STUDIO Revolver Entertainment
DIRECTOR James Strong
STARS David Tennant, Jack O'Connell, Sam Claflin, Dougray Scott
(Originally Broadcast on BBC Two on 24th April 2011)
"The team that defined an era, and a disaster that tore them apart."
We've never forgotten and we never will. The events leading up to and after the Munich Air Disaster, which claimed 23 lives (including 8 of the Manchester United team), are faithfully bought to the screen, in this moving film through the eyes, of Sir Matt Busby's assistant Jimmy Murphy (Tennant) and Bobby Charlton (O'Connell).
With a powerful script based on first hand interviews with survivors and their families, United begins in September 1956 with a young whippersnapper Bobby Charlton desperate for his place in the United team. His wish is granted and, as history well knows, he is an instant success. The "Busby Babes" themselves are a success. They have won the league for two successive seasons and have now reached their second successive European Cup semi-final.
After the aircraft's third attempt of a take-off from a fuel stop in Munich, it crashes. The scenes in the aircraft itself and the crash are hard to watch but this is because of how brilliantly recreated such a disaster can be. It is as upsetting as it should be. Seeing it from Charlton's eyes gives us only an insight into his exact view of such a tragedy.
The remainder of the film deals with the shock and grief at the loss of boys that died and the beginning of the rebuild of Manchester United. Murphy fights off the Board of Directors' request that the club should be closed down. He defies them by building a make-shift team for the match against Sheffield Wednesday. Meanwhile, Bobby Charlton is struggling to come to terms with the loss of his team-mates and his best friend Duncan Edwards and never wants to play football again.
The film ends at Wembley stadium just before the 1958 FA Cup final. Busby is back at work. Jimmy Murphy leads the team out with a phoenix (poetic licence) on the players chests. Murphy looks back on the team and sees the faces of the Babes that died. Gone, but never forgotten.
Many scenes are taken straight from history and it is obvious Chris Chibnall knows his stuff. Other football fact-based drama's have relied too heavily on dramatic licence and the "twisting" of events (The Damned United especially). For most part Chibnall makes sure the story stays true to history (minus a few minor inaccuracies and naming Mark Jones as captain when it was Roger Byrne) and beautifully portrays why Manchester United are the Manchester United we know and love today.
Having said that, however, the story creates a hero and a villain out of it. Head of the FA, Alan Hardaker, is portrayed as the villain in this piece. His refusal to move the club's fixture against Wolverhampton Wanderers is too easily associated with Busby's decision to hire a private aircraft to fulfil that fixture. The scene with Hardaker racked with guilt and shaking on the phone only adds fuel to that fire. I will agree that all good drama's need a villain but in this case, it does not feel right.
The portrayal of Matt Busby (Dougray Scott) received some criticism from the Busby family. Some of this is justified. At times, it feels like Busby is a gangster taken straight out of a 1940's American gangster film with the hat, suit and pained expression included. Is that the Busby everyone knew? I doubt it.
These little criticisms aside, there are so many positives to see here. The two lead actors deserve all the plaudits. Jack O'Connell's warm performance as Bobby Charlton does the man every justice and perfectly captures the joy, anguish and doubt of his early career. As the rest of the squad sang after his debut "There is only one Bobby Charlton" but you wouldn't mind there being two watching O'Connell's performance.
David Tennant's acting ability is well known in the public eye due to his performance as a famous Time Lord. This high profile casting was, arguably, one of the reasons the BBC broadcast achieved a large audience and with that bought a new audience to the history of Man United. He does not disappoint as Jimmy Murphy. He is superb. He plays a Jimmy Murphy that is the real hero of the story and is the real hero of Manchester United. The way he should be played.
United throws you right back to football of a bygone era and brings with it every emotion a human being can experience. At its heart, United is a superb drama with or without the weight of history behind it. You will cry watching it or, if you are made of much sterner stuff, you will at least feel a lump in your throat.
Every United fan should be well educated on the events of 6th February 1958. When we bring a new generation of United fans into the world, this film is a great educational tool. This film shows how Manchester United carried on in the face of adversity. This film shows this club will never die. This film shows this club, United.

Watch in HD!!!!! This is a play through of a song of mine called 'Dreamer'. Its off of my latest EP titled 'Titan'. This is probably one of the most favorite songs I've written to date. I also really enjoy the drums parts for this song. There isn't anything complicated at all, its just really fun to play!
This is the first video with my new Tama kit. Im very honored and excited to be a part of the Tama Drums artist roster!!!!! Words can't express how well they've welcomed and treated me so far. These drums sound amazing! Im still learning how to mic and mix them, but I hope that improves as I upload more and more videos. I've posted specs for my current setup below.
My cymbal setup is listed below (from left to right)!!!
Also, you can hear my dog barking in the clean section and at the very end... hahaha! I get a lot of deer in my yard, and he barks at them constantly until they go away. Regardless, his barking was picked up in my room mic's... OH WELL! I guess thats his contribution to the drum play through!
'Titan' is available for download on my Bandcamp. I've posted a link below. Its available for free along with all of my other releases.
I really do appreciate all of the support my releases have been getting. I write and upload music purely for my own enjoyment and practice. The reaction to 'Titan' has been amazing, and I really do thank everyone that has supported me!

Justin Jennings scheduled for bail hearing on Conception Bay South gun incident charges
Found fit for trial
SaltWire Network | Posted: Dec. 8, 2022, 8:57 p.m. | Updated: Dec. 8, 2022, 8:57 p.m. | 1 Min Read
Justin Jennings
ST. JOHN'S, N.L. — Having been found fit for trial, Justin Jennings is scheduled for a bail hearing Monday, Dec. 12.
Jennings is facing charges of assault causing bodily harm, assault with a weapon, choking, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and breaching a release order in relation to a gun-related incident in Conception Bay South Tuesday, Dec. 6.
Royal Newfoundland Constabulary officers arrested Jennings at a residence on Petten's Road in Upper Gullies after they were called to the scene around 10:45 a.m. Tuesday, arriving to find an injured man outside the home. He was taken to hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries and Jennings was arrested about an hour and a half later.
The day before his arrest, Jennings had been scheduled for trial on more than a dozen gun-related charges, laid in connection with an incident in C.B.S. last spring. Jennings didn't turn up for court but was represented by his lawyer. All his charges related to the March incident were withdrawn.
Jennings appeared in court Wednesday and was sent for an overnight psychiatric assessment. His bail hearing was scheduled upon his return to court Thursday.

HARARE - A Harare court yesterday ordered ex-war veterans leader Jabulani Sibanda, charged with undermining the authority of President Robert Mugabe, to return to court on June 30.
Sibanda, who appeared before magistrate Elijah Makomo yesterday, was arrested in November 2014 after accusing the veteran leader of plotting "a bedroom coup" for propping his wife Grace to take a top position in the governing Zanu PF while sidelining senior party officials.
Sibanda also allegedly threatened to march to the State House, Mugabe's official residency, to confront the 92-year-old veteran leader over his grievances.
Sibanda has approached the Constitutional court, arguing the charge was ultra vires his constitutional right to freedom of expression, also challenging the constitutionality of Section 33 (2) of the Criminal Law (Codification and Reform) Act he was been charged under for criminal insult.
The lower courts cannot proceed with the case until it is finalised in the Con-Court, which reserved ruling last June.
Sibanda made his first court appearance in February 2014 ahead of Zanu PF's congress.
He was subsequently barred from going to the congress, mobilise anyone to march to any State institutions, ordered to reside at 6337 Nkulumane Bulawayo and surrender his passport as part of bail conditions.
In his Con-Court challenge, Sibanda argued that the charge by the State has the effect of infringing on his rights and freedom, which rights have been deemed fundamental by the Constitution.
"Every person has the right, at law, to seek, receive and communicate ideas and other information," he argued.
Allegations against Sibanda rose on October 27, 2014 at Hebert Mine in Mutasa.
He allegedly delivered a lengthy speech alleging that Mugabe and his wife Grace were planning to topple Vice President Joice Mujuru and replace her with the first lady.
According to State papers, Sibanda further said he was not prepared for such an arrangement because "power is not sexually transmitted".
Sibanda voiced the unease of many in Zanu PF and Mugabe retaliated by claiming that the ex-war vets leader was possessed by the "spirit of Beelzebub".
Grace Mugabe, a 50-year-old sybarite, is one of the most reviled people in the country.
She met her husband while working as a secretary at State House in the late 1980s.

What DC comic character is Dwayne Johnson considering?
Freedom grad Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson got the fanboys buzzing gain when he tweeted on New Years Eve that he was in talks with Warner Brothers to work on a DC Comics movie in 2014.
"We just had a big meeting w/ Warner Bros CEO re: DC Comics 2014 we will partner up and create the cool bad assery," Johnson tweeted during a question and answer session on Twitter with fans.
However no details have been released about the potential comic book role for The Rock.
A producer connected to Warner Brothers fueled the rumor mill when he tweeted "Need to talk to some people tonite about doomsday in Batman vs. Superman" in December.
DC is also listed as having in production "The Flash" for 2016 and "Justice League" for 2017.
Portraying muscular cartoon characters is nothing new for Johnson who is set to star in "Hercules" based on the Radical comic book. The movie set for a July 25 release, is being beaten to gate by a rival Hercules flick "The Legend of Hercules" starring "Twilight's" Kellan Lutz which opens Friday. However The Rock is taking it lightly tweeting "Lutz is a good kid and wanted to work. I love competition. Bring it on."
However, one competition that it look like Johnson won't make is "Wrestlemania 30."
"Between Vince, Brock & myself our Wrestlemania 30 plan was Rock vs Brock," Johnson tweeted New Year's Eve. "No plans now for 30 but possibly WM 31."
There had been speculation that Johnson would not be in "Wrestlemania 30" ever since he was injured during a match against arch-rival John Cena at New Jersey's Met Life Stadium in April 2013. Johnson had to undergo emergency surgery for three hernial tears he suffered in the match.
During the New Year's Eve fan talkback, he tweeted "My biggest 2013 "ah ha" moment was tearing my quad & adductor from my pelvis. God's way of saying 'slow down son.'"
Since he seems to have no plans for slowing down on the movie front, it seems the slowing down will be in the wrestling arena.
Listed below are links to weblogs that reference What DC comic character is Dwayne Johnson considering?
