UnderstandEdit
This is the least populated and least visited region of Bali. It is dominated by the West Bali National Park and a huge area of protected reserve, much of which is completely uninhabited. Both the north and south coasts of this region offer quiet beaches but of a very different nature. Those in the north fringe calm seas which are excellent for diving and snorkelling. The southern beaches are wilder and include a number of renowned surfing spots. The town of Gilimanuk on the very westernmost tip of Bali is the departure point for ferries to Java.
Get inEdit
By carEdit
Map of the West Bali Region
Two major roads lead into West Bali, one on the north coast and one on the south coast.
The northern route links Lovina and Singaraja in North Bali to Pemuteran. This is a relatively quiet road which offers some great scenery and attractions en-route and visitors are advised to take it slowly.
Much busier is the southern route as this carries the bulk of the commercial traffic to and from Java. This road links South Bali to Tabanan in Central Bali and then to the western region towns of Negara and Gilimanuk. A car journey from South Bali all the way to Gilimanuk will take upwards of 3 hours.
By busEdit
Scheduled shuttle buses run from many of Bali's main visitor centres to Gilimanuk and these are widely advertised in towns such as Kuta, Lovina, Sanur and Ubud. Check locally and book one day in advance.
Bemos servicing Negara, Gilimanuk and other parts of the south coast leave from Ubung terminal in Denpasar and Pesiapan terminal in Tabanan.
By boatEdit
Ferries run from Ketapang ferry terminal, Banyuwangi, East Java to Gilimanuk every 30 minutes, 24 hours a day. The journey itself takes about 45 minutes but loading and unloading may extend that time considerably. Since Bali has been the subject of terrorist interest from Java security has tightened enormously - be prepared for delays.
Get aroundEdit
This remote region of Bali lends itself to getting around by hire car or motorcycle. Cars for rent are not all common here so best to bring it in with you from one of the main tourist destinations. You will find motorbikes easier to come by, especially in the beach communities of Pemuteran and Medewi Beach.
SeeEdit
West Bali National Park covers some 770 square kilometres and is the dominant feature of this region. All visitors should check in and purchase permits (Rp 25,000) at the main park ofice in the village of Cekik south of Gilimanuk. Visitors intending to visit only Menjangan Island (part of the national park), please see below. For treks through forest and into the hills of the national park, proceed to the ranger station at Sumber Klampok about 20 minutes west from Cekik. A guide is mandatory and will cost between Rp 200,000 and Rp 500,000 depending on the length and nature of your trek. Discuss all of this and make plans with the staff at the Cekik park office. If you are very lucky you might get to see a Bali Starling, Bali's only endemic vertebrate species.
Vibrant marine life. Uninhabited Menjangan Island is a renowned diving and snorkelling destination. This is part of West Bali National Park and boats with a guide can be chartered at Labuan Lalang just to the west of Pemuteran on the north coast. Dive operators in Pemuteran can arrange everything for you as well as other dive trips along this very attractive stretch of coastline. If the water does to appeal so much, then you can walk around in the island in about one hour and there are lots of good photo opportunities.
Remote black sand beaches. The south coast of this region is fringed by black sand beaches and fishing villages that attract few visitors. The most well known of those is Medewi Beach. This is a surf destination but also a great place to experience laid back life in a tiny Balinese fishing village. Just relax and do not expect to see too many other visitors. On the north coast at Pemuteran there is a more developed but still very relaxed beach scene which centres on diving, snorkelling and marine conservation. Lots of accommodation options here to suit all budgets.
Buffalo racing (Mekepung) in Delod Berawah about 9 km east of Negara town. Thought to originate in Madura, Java, the buffalo races were originally held as part of the harvest festivities in Negara. The colorfully decorated carts and buffaloes race on a four km course every 2nd and 4th Sunday morning starting at 7.00 AM.
Rambut Siwi Temple (Pura Rambut Siwi). About equidistant between Negara and Medewi Beach. Located on a low cliff top overlooking a breathtaking panorama of paddy fields and the mountains of West Bali National Park on one side and black sand beaches on the other. The temple itself was built by the 16th century Javanese sage Dang Hyang Nirartha, also the creator of Tanah Lot temple. According to legend, he made a gift of his hair to the temple. Hence the name Rambut Siwi, which literally means " Hair Worship".
DoEdit
Trekking and birdwatching in West Bali National Park are key activities in this region. You might, just might, even get to see a Bali Starling, one of the rarest birds in the world with just a handful left in the wild.
Surfing is top class on the south coast beaches with the regional surf scene is being centred at Medewi Beach.
Diving and snorkeling around Pemuteran and Menjangan Island rates up there with the very best in Bali. At the same time, get to learn about marine conservation initiatives for which Pemuteran is a key centre in the whole of Indonesia.
EatEdit
A key culinary speciality of this region is Ayam Betutu (hot and spicy chicken). Chicken is boiled in a broth of local spices for up to 3 hours and wood-smoked (Betutu means smoked). It is normally served with steamed rice and plecing kangkung (hot and spicy spinach). This unique dish will certainly please foodies and even the most jaded of traveller will appreciate the truly delicious flavours. The recipe was apparently invented by the late Mrs Tempeh and the warung bearing her name is the most popular venue for this dish: Warung Men Tempeh in the old bus terminal at Gilimanuk.
DrinkEdit
This is certainly not a region of Bali in which to expect any sort of bar culture. A beer on the beach is to be recommended though.
Go nextEdit
A drive back to South Bali via Tabanan will take about 3 hours.
The north coast route to Lovina and Singaraja will take about an hour.
Ferries from Gilimanuk to Banyuwangi in East Java run every 30 minutes, 24 hours a day.

Updated at 6:23 p.m. on Thursday, May 3, 2018 with more information.
NASHVILLE - Gov. Bill Haslam on Thursday vetoed legislation that sought to allow employees on the state's health plan use an alternative radiation treatment for cancer.
The Republican said the proton therapy bill "circumvents the established process for determining state employee insurance program coverage based on medical evidence and effectiveness."
Moreover, the governor said "the state plan currently covers many forms of radiation treatment, and the provider advocating this bill rejected a medically appropriate plan for expanded coverage to instead pursue a political mandate."
The bill, sponsored by Sen. Mark Green, R-Clarksville, and Rep. Bob Ramsey, R-Maryville, sought to require coverage of hypofractionated proton therapy for cancer treatment for members of the state group insurance plan.
Green, who is running for Congress, later called for a special session to override the governor's veto.
In his tweet, the physician said his "Cancer Patient Choice Act" would sought to "give cancer patients a proven alternative to radiation at the same price.
"Will you join me in the fight by signing my petition to call for a special session and sharing this post?"
In a joint statement, Lt. Gov. Randy McNally, the Republican Senate speaker, and House Speaker Beth Harwell, R-Nashville, said it's too early for lawmakers, who adjourned for the year only a week ago Wednesday, to call themselves back into session.
"While it is the prerogative of the legislature to call for a special session at any time, we believe it would be premature at this point," the speakers said. "The 110th General Assembly's final bills are still being enrolled, signed and sent to the governor.
"The most prudent course," the speakers said, "is to wait for gubernatorial action on all legislation passed this session. Only then can we reasonably assess the need for a special session."
Haslam's veto of the proton therapy bill was his first veto for the 2018 legislative session that ended April 25. It brings his total vetoes since becoming governor in 2011 to five. Haslam leaves office in January.
The governor said in his veto statement that the state is "committed to high-quality care that is medically appropriate and fiscally responsible for patients and taxpayers, but this mandate could put patients at risk and expose them to excessive charges from out-of-network providers."
Green, a physician, has argued there is "an increased body of literature and medical research that shows that proton therapy is as effective in many types of cancer with a significant decrease in side effects."

Fr. Louis Tylka Appointed as the Coadjutor Bishop of Chicago Diocese by Pope Francis
Mon 11th May,

Pope Francis names Chicago priest coadjutor of Peoria diocese as he will be assisted by Bishop Jenky in the administration of the Illinois diocese.
Pope Francis on Monday appointed Fr. Louis Tylka, a priest of the Archdiocese of Chicago, as coadjutor bishop of the Diocese of Peoria to serve alongside Bishop Daniel R. Jenky, CSC.
As coadjutor, Tylka will assist Bishop Jenky, 73, in the administration of the Illinois diocese and succeed him as bishop upon his retirement or death.
Bishop-elect Tylka, 49, is chair of the Chicago archdiocese's priest council and pastor of St. Julie Billiart Catholic Church in Tinley Park since 2014.
In a statement May 11, Bishop Jenky explained that over a year ago he had begun to experience mobility problems because of arthritis and spinal issues and had asked Pope Francis to appoint a coadjutor to help in the administration of the diocese.
"I am extremely grateful to the Pope for granting my request and sending us this good shepherd," Jenky said.
He also noted Tylka's work in parishes for his entire 24 years of priesthood, saying he "will bring enormous talent, zeal, and a warm personality to the service of God and neighbor here in Central Illinois."
Tylka introduced himself to the Diocese of Peoria via video message May 11.
The coadjutor bishop-elect said he was "flabbergasted" by the news of his appointment. "I am both overwhelmed and humbled by the Holy Father's faith in me and in that spirit accept this calling from the Lord and His Church," he said.
"My heart is also filled with gratitude to Almighty God for the gift of faith and the gift of the Church," Tylka stated. "I pray the Holy Spirit will continue to sustain me so that I respond generously to the Lord's call."
According to the Diocese of Peoria, due to the strict quarantine imposed on Illinois during the coronavirus, the date of Tylka's episcopal ordination and installation at the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception "may be undecided for some time."
Fr. Louis Tylka and Pope Francis
Tylka was born on May 26, 1970 in Harvey, Illinois, the youngest, and only son, to a family of five sisters. He attended Catholic grade school and high school before entering seminary.
Since his ordination in May 1996, the bishop-elect has served in several parishes in the Archdiocese of Chicago. He has been pastor of St. Julie Billiart since 2014.
In his video message, Tylka credited his parents with instilling "great values" in their children, as well as "the importance of family and of faith, and the freedom to chart our own course in life and the courage to go after those dreams."
Noting the death of his mother, Norma, 30 years ago, just as he entered seminary, he said he is thankful for her encouragement to consider the priesthood.
Tylka also asked for prayers for his youngest sister, Mary Lou, who he said is fighting terminal cancer: "May Jesus keep her and all those sick and suffering close to His heart," he added.
Addressing Catholics of the Peoria diocese, Tylka said "let us pray for one another, and in this moment of trial for the entire world, let us call on the intercession of Our Lady, to whom our Cathedral is dedicated, so that the Lord will deliver us from this pandemic, strengthen and preserve all front line workers, give an added portion of wisdom to all of our leaders, comfort those who mourn and bring the dead to eternal life."
The Diocese of Peoria covers 26 counties in central Illinois, serving nearly 145,000 Catholics in 162 parishes.

Namedropping
By Donna Miscolta | May 23, 2016
When I was growing up in National City, California, I often thought about moving away some day. I knew I would. I just didn't know where I would go or how I would get there. In 1977, eight months after I graduated from San Diego State, my cousin had just driven in from Texas and was heading back to his home in Oregon. "Come with me," he said. "I can get you a job." He might've been joking, but I packed a suitcase and got in his car. Within three months I had made my way to Seattle, my home ever since. These days, I try to visit National City once a year to see family. While I'm there, amid all the changes that have occurred – the freeway, the strip malls, the beautiful new library that replaced the little one-story brick building of my childhood – I think about that awkward, timorous, goofy-looking girl I was. Someone too busy being self-conscious about her lack of grace that she never fully engaged with the world around her. I didn't know that there were people in my vicinity that were developing as artists, activists, and humanists. Only as an adult have I come in contact with a few of them, brushed briefly against their greatness. I drop their names below.
Artist Cecilia Alvarez
Cecilia was born in National City at Paradise Valley Hospital, the hospital where I was a candy striper as a teenager. Cecilia and I are just a few years apart. She grew up on both sides of the border, while I grew up in National City. However, we both attended San Diego State. That's where she was told by faculty that "because she was a Mexican-American woman, her work would never be considered fine art." Cecilia's response is partially summarized in Wikipedia:
Alvarez's painting Las Cuatas Diego has been featured in books and exhibitions around the world. Alvarez has also illustrated the bilingual children's book Antonio's Card authored by Rigoberto González. Her work is collected by the Mexican Fine Arts Museum, the Seattle Art Museum and by the Kaiser Foundation.
Cecilia moved to Seattle in 1975, two years before I did. We lived no more than six miles apart for decades before we finally met. But I've known of her work for a while. It's gorgeous and powerful and full of energy, depicting themes of feminism, culture and community, and a deep concern for the earth.
Poet Juan Felipe Herrera
The current U.S. Poet Laureate graduated from San Diego High School in 1967, about eight miles from Sweetwater High where I graduated in 1971. He ran the Centro Cultural de la Raza in Balboa Park during the time I was working at the nearby Natural History Museum.
In 1979 he was working on his second book in Suzzallo Library at the University of Washington. I was a graduate student at UW at the time and spent many hours studying in Suzzallo, perhaps even walking past Herrera on occasion.
I had the pleasure of meeting Herrera recently at the University of Washington Friends of the Library Literary Voices event where he was the keynote speaker. After he spoke and read from his work, including poems about Seattle artists Alfredo Arreguín and Fulgencio Lazo, he took questions from the audience. When asked what inspired him about today's young Latinos, he said approvingly, "They're very bold." I have to believe that their boldness is very much inspired by people like Juan Felipe Herrera, the son of migrant workers, graduate of UCLA, Stanford and the Iowa Writer's Workshop, author of dozens of books, and lifelong activist for migrant and indigenous rights.
Artist Lupita Shahbazi
Lupita lives in Chula Vista, CA, National City's neighbor to the south. But she once lived in National City and attended Sweetwater High five years behind me. I met Lupita several years ago after tracking her down on the Internet. I had discerned her signature on a print my sister had bought at a local art fair and given to me. The print was of a painting titled Dos Niñas and featured two girls sitting side by side on a bench, their ankles tucked demurely behind one another. They're holding hands, eyes forward, their expressions solemn with fear, perhaps, or sadness, but also a determination to overcome or persevere against any harm that looms. They're awash in blue light which colors their faces and their bare arms and legs. Their hands clasped around each other signals a strength, a commitment, but also a realization that one day their hands must let go of each other. I kept the print propped on my desk. It's an image that seemed to embody the stories I had written and gathered into a collection that came to be titled Hola and Goodbye. My publisher has designed a beautiful cover for the book, which I love. But I will always see a connection between Dos Niñas and many of the stories in my collection.
Writer Luis Urrea
Ten years ago for my birthday my mother gave me The Hummingbird's Daughter, still one of my favorite books. Two years later in 2008, I met Luis Urrea at the Bread Loaf Writers' Conference. We compared notes on growing up in and near National City – cruising Highland Avenue, hanging out in Kimball Park, attending catechism class at St, Mary's. Is it even necessary to say that his trajectory from border life to award-winning, widely loved poet, novelist, short-story writer, essayist, and Latino Literature Hall of Fame member (in short, "literary badass," according to NPR), is inspiring? How can you not have respect for National City?
A couple of his stories in The Water Museum take place in or near National City. One has the city name in its title, "The National City Reparation Society." The other is "The Southside Raza Image Federation Corps of Discovery." Read the whole collection for its range of style, subject, and setting.
Luis was on faculty last summer at the Port Townsend Writers Conference. Being on campus while he was there was a treat. He's a natural storyteller both on the page and at the podium. His readings are electrifying, and his craft lectures are delivered in an effortless, conversational tone, with an unexpected punch or two. What's better than listening to Luis Urrea? Doing so with good friends.

Paal Audestad
The award-winning photographer Paal Audestad has worked as a photographer since he was 17 years old. After graduation at the Norwegian Press Photographer School in -89 he has worked for Norwegian newspapers like Dagsavisen, VG and in later years as freelance photographer for Aftenposten´s A-Magasinet.
Audestad´s interest in music led him to work with bands and performers. He has taken press and cover images for notable bands and performers such as DumDum Boys, Raga Rockers, Sivert Høyem, Skambankt, Janove Ottesen and Kaizers Orchestra.
Audestad has also taken a number of study trips. Among those are many to Tsjernobyl, site of the most serious nuclear power plant accident in the world (1986). This is documented in his series Chernobyl Legacy and partly also in Urban Nature.
View works by Audestad available in our shop
Apart from the music industry, investigating places and it´s people and history is also among Audestad´s passions.
Empty rooms and a rusty ferris wheel at an amusement park, a gas mask hanging from a hook, old posters of political boasts and nature taking over parking lots and buildings. It all tells stories of time passing. Of industry, culture and many also the broken hope of a prosperous future for the people who once lived there.
Cars are also among Audestad´s favourite motives, whether he finds new ones parked along his walking routes through Oslo or old ones in a garage or behind a house left to rust and decay.
Symbols of human activity, signs of what is or once was important, seem to be a leading motive in his works. Audestad is mapping his surroundings, and when doing so he transforms simple everyday motives into art. His photos are not merely documentation of reality; they reflect a feeling of uncertainty and ambiguousness and make us ask what we actually see.
Many of the photos our gallery has on display are taken by Polaroid camera on field trips. Being exposed to moist, debris, wind or sun, the result is a picture surface that reflects both the motive and the situation in which it's taken.

Class of 2020 Australian duo commits to Montana Griz men's basketball
KYLE HANSEN kyle.hansen@missoulian.com
MISSOULA — The 2019-20 season hasn't even begun for the Montana Grizzlies men's basketball team but they're already looking to the future.
Recently, a pair of Australian athletes told 406mtsports.com that they have given their verbal commitments to the Grizzlies for the Class of 2020: 6-foot-8 forward Josh Bannan and 6-5 guard Hunter Clarke.
The roommates visited Montana back in April together and immediately fell in love with Missoula. For Clarke, it reminded him of home in a way.
"I always thought it was a more relatable staff and player environment," Clarke said. "I could see myself being there. The school is amazing and the community feels a lot different than a place like L.A. There was more of a wholesome feel. You go into a restaurant and everyone says hello and I kind of liked that. It was more relatable to Australia."
While both are venturing into new territory, Clarke has plenty of connections already with UM. His older brother, Anderson Clarke, is a grad assistant for the Grizzlies.
And after meeting the team, the rest of the coaching staff and seeing the school and what it had to offer, both were ready to commit.
Clarke was born in Canberra, the capital city of Australia. Early on, he moved to Adelaide in South Australia — the same town former Griz Ben Carter hails from — before moving to the Bay Area in California in sixth grade. He lived there through his freshman year of high school and was eventually offered a scholarship at the NBA Global Academy at Basketball Australia's Centre of Excellence at the Australian Institute of Sport so he moved back to Canberra where he's been ever since.
With a different upbringing than a typical high school atmosphere like in America, Clarke feels better prepared because he competes against men and trains extensively throughout the week. The Centre of Excellence, which Bannan and Clarke compete for right now, competes in the NBL1, a semi-professional league in Australia where some of the teams feature players from the NBA's G-League. Their season began in late March and will run into late July, early August.
Clarke's father, Marty, who used to be an associate head coach at St. Mary's in Moraga, California, is the technical director at the NBA Global Academy. Clarke said he also used to suit up against current Griz Timmy Falls.
Clarke remembers getting a letter from Montana back in eighth or ninth grade and has been well aware of the Griz thanks to being a big college basketball fan. But in August of last year, associate head coach Chris Cobb visited Australia for a tournament the NBA put on and that is where the conversations really took off for both athletes. Montana was the first school to officially offer Clarke.
"I'm looking forward to playing hard and being reliable (with the Griz)," Clarke said. "Just looking forward to playing college basketball."
While Clarke has been at the Centre of Excellence since 10th grade, Bannan joined last summer. The duo also competed on the Australian U17 team as well where they finished in sixth last summer in the U17 World Cup.
"It felt like a good environment where I felt like I could do well for the team and can benefit me as an individual as well," Bannan said. "The opportunity to play basketball at a very high level and to get the schooling I want at the same time made it pretty appealing."
While Clarke was more aware of the Grizzlies thanks to his family connections and having lived in the States, learning about UM was a new experience for Bannan. Bannan said he was able to watch a couple of Griz games last season, including the NCAA Tournament matchup against Michigan. He picked UM over UC Riverside and UC San Diego.
"At that point, I really knew I wanted to go to college in America. That's always been a goal and aspiration of mine," Bannan said. "When (Cobb reached out) that was when it started becoming reality.
"Hunter and I are really good friends and Anderson being there as well will be helpful when I first come over."
Clarke said he normally plays at the two but can play point if need be. Bannan, with his size, usually plays at the small and power forward positions. Bannan added that he's capable of stretching the floor, handling the ball well and he's able to shoot it.
Bannan originally hails from Melbourne in the Australian state of Victoria and played junior club basketball with the Blackburn Vikings before joining the Australian Institute of Sport.

I know, I know -- it's been a very long time since my last post. I won't try to explain or make excuses, but I do hope you enjoy this little tutorial (sort of) on how to crochet a flower using pip beads, and how to then transform that flower into a pendant and create your own necklace. Here in Michigan, we just experienced another winter storm and the temperatures are frigid today, but my thoughts have turned to spring ... and flowers.
Below is a list of the materials that I used to create the necklace you see coming together in the photos. For convenience, I've included links that will take you to sites where these materials are available. You should, however, feel free to make substitutions to achieve the look you want. The technique and instructions can be used flexibly.
SAE Flat Zinc Washer - 3/8"
Instructions: First, you will make two circles -- one to serve as the base for the flower and one will form the back of the pendant.
To begin: Use the C-Lon cord to make an adjustable "magic ring".
Round 1: Make 5 single crochets (sc) into the ring. Join with a slip stitch (sl st) to the first sc and then pull the "magic circle" closed.
Round 2: Chain (ch) 1. Working in the back loops only (blo), make 2 sc in each sc around, for a total of 10 sc. Join with a sl st to the first sc.
Round 3: Ch 1. Again, working in the blo, sc in first sc, 2sc in next sc, *sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc*. Repeat from * to* until you complete the round, working 2sc in the last sc. Total of 15 sc. Join with a sl st to the first sc.
Round 4: Ch 1. Again, working in the blo, sc in the each of the first two sc, work 2 sc in the third sc, *1 sc in each of the next two stitches, 2 sc in the next stitch*. Repeat from * to * until you complete the round, ending with 2 sc in the last stitch. Total of 20 sc. Join with a sl st to the first sc. Fasten off, leaving a long tail of about 15 inches for sewing.
NOTE: If you'd like a larger flower, you just need to add more rounds until you achieve the desired size.
To begin: String all of the pip beads onto the spool of C-Lon cord.
Make a slip knot on your hook. With the right side of the circle facing you, insert your hook under the free front loop of the first sc in the first round of the circle Move one of the pip beads up close to the sc, with the cord over your hook, pull the cord under the front loop of the sc and through the slip knot loop on your hook. (See photo below) Tighten the stitch.
Now insert your hook under the front loop of the second crochet in the first round of the circle. Again, slide a bead up close to the sc, with the cord over your hook, pull the cord under the front loop of the underlying sc and through the remaining loop on your hook. In essence, you are slip stitching the beads to the front loops of the single crochets on the circle.
Continue working in this manner until you complete the first round, and then simply move out to the second round and repeat the process, and then the third round and repeat the process, until the first three rounds are filled with "petals".
Do not add beads to the last round of the underlying circle (i.e., no beads on the edge). Do not fasten off.
Create the loop for attaching your pendant to the necklace: Ch 8 (or number needed to give you the loop size you want) and then attach with a sl st to the sc in the last round directly behind the chain (making a loop).
Fasten off. Weave in your ends.
Using the 32 gauge blue wire, make a slip knot on your hook, leaving about a 6 inch tail. Ch 4. Sl st in the 4th ch from the hook. Ch 3. Sl st in the same ch as your last sl st. Ch 3. Again, sl st into the same chain.
Continue in this manner until you have 5 loops of 3 chains each. Fasten off and leave about a 6 inch tail. Thread one of the 3 mm glass pearls onto one of the tails and secure it in the center of the petals. Pull the wire tails through the middle of the crocheted circle with the bead petals attached to it (i.e., pull the wires through the center of your original "magic ring") until the the wire petal center you've created sits firmly in the center, among your bead petals. Then turn the circle over, twist the wire tails together, and work them into the back of the stitches that make up the crocheted circle in order to secure your center. Use your wire cutters to clip off any excess wire.
Thread the long tail on the remaining crocheted circle (without bead petals) onto your needle. With wrong sides facing, sew the two circles together, catching the loops of the single crochets on the edge of each circle. Insert the washer between the two circles and enclose it as you sew (it thus becomes hidden in the center, between the two circles).
The purpose of the washer is to give the pendant just a little bit of weight, so that it will hang properly on your necklace. Once the circles are completely sewn together, with the washer inside, fasten off and weave in the ends.
Crochet the Necklace: The necklace is made by creating three separate crocheted strands and then braiding them together.
Strand #1: Using the C-Lon cord, with the remaining pip beads pre-strung on it, make a slip knot on your hook. Leave an 8 inch tail. Ch 5. *Pull bead up next to hook and ch 1 (bead is worked into ch). Ch 5.* Repeat from * to * until your strand is about 19 inches long. Fasten off. Leave an 8 inch tail.
Strand #2: String the crystal pearls onto the blue wire. Use the wire to make a slip knot on your hook. Leave an 8 inch tail. Ch 3. *Pull bead up next to hook and ch 1 (bead is worked into ch). Ch 3.* Repeat from * to * until your strand is about 19 inches long. Fasten off. Leave an 8 inch tail.
Strand #3: Use the silver wire to make a slip knot on your hook. Leave an 8 inch tail. Work chain stitches until your strand is 19 inches long. Fasten off. Leave an 8 inch tail.
Hold the three strands together at one end, so that the first chain stitch of each strand lines up. Knot the strands together at that point (where the stitches begin), leaving the tails free beyond the knot. Now, fairly loosely, braid the three strands together. When you've braided the entire length of the crocheted part of the strands, tie another knot to secure the braid, leaving the tails free beyond the knot.
Slide the loop of your pendant over the braided necklace strands until it reaches the middle of the braid.
As an alternative, you could use an antique silver jump ring to connect the pendant to the braided necklace.
Now, using the tails, secure the two parts of the toggle clasp to the ends of each strand. I inserted the tail ends through the loops on each part of the toggle clasp, tied two knots into each end, cut off the C-lon cord (leaving just a tiny bit beyond the knot), then wrapped the knots and cord ends tightly with the remaining two strands of wire from the tails. I wove the wire ends into the chain stitches at the end of the strands to secure them, and clipped off any excess wire.
Now play around with what you've learned. Create your own design! Here are a couple more that I came up with.
On the necklace shown below, the beads are a slightly different shape -- like chrysanthemum petals. They are often referred to as "petal beads". The same technique outlined here works for this type of bead, too.

Jarrod Dyson Will be a Huge Defensive Upgrade for the Pittsburgh Pirates
By Marty Leap
New center fielder Jarrod Dyson will be a huge defensive upgrade over long time Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Starling Marte in 2020.
COVID-19 permitting, the Pittsburgh Pirates will kick off their abbreviated 60-game 2020 season on July 24 at Busch Stadium against the St. Louis Cardinals. In this game, Jarrod Dyson will be manning center field for the Pirates in the first game of his Pirate career.
When Dyson trots out to center field in Busch Stadium on July 24, he will be replacing long time Pittsburgh Pirates fan favorite Starling Marte. The former National League All-Star and multiple time Gold Glove Award winner had been a member of the Pirates since July 2012, and the team's starting center fielder the past two seasons.
While Marte is one of the best players in franchise history, he had his shortcomings as a defender in center field. While Dyson is nowhere near the hitter Marte is, he will be a huge defensive upgrade in center field for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2020.
In his career in center field, Marte owns a -9 Defensive Runs Saved, despite a +12 Outs Above Average. In 2019, Marte owned a -9 DRS and just a +2 OAA.
As for Dyson, his career numbers are far superior to this. Dyson has been responsible for +44 DRS in center field in hsi career, and +15 OAA. This includes a +6 DRS and a +3 OAA during the 2019 season with the Arizona Diamondbacks. This came while playing his home games in a very challenging center field in Chase Field to boot.
Next. Projecting the Pirates Opening Day Bullpen. dark
While Dyson is not the overall player that Marte is, as evident by Marte's average 3.0 fWAR per season and Dyson's 1.4, he is the far superior defender. Since the Pirates' best opportunity to compete in 2020 will require an emphasis on run prevention, this move toward center field defense will be a beneficial one of the Pittsburgh Pirates. The only question is rather or not Dyson will still be the team's starting center fielder following the August 31 trade deadline? We will have to wait and see.

Titanfall 2 Story Trailer – You, a Titan and a Planet Destroying Superweapon
You are a member of a resistance group fighting the oppressive enemy who now possess a weapon capable of destroying entire worlds. Nope, this isn't Star Wars. Just a few minutes ago, Respawn Entertainment released the official single player gameplay trailer.
You play as Jack Cooper, a lowly rifleman who ascends to pilot his own Titan. There's a little more to the story than the trailer indicates. It isn't just "being at the right place at the wrong time."
Jack doesn't go full video game and become a badass pilot just by jumping inside a Titan. His mentor, Captain Lastimosa, was secretly training the rifleman on how to drive the 20-foot Titan. Jack happens to be right by Lastimosa as he dies. Lastimosa transfers control of BT-7274 (BT for short) to Jack.
The relationship between BT and Jack is one of the pillars of Titanfall 2's story. But it didn't start out the way. In the second trailer I embedded above, Respawn developers talk about how BT was originally written to be very bossy.
"He wasn't always as much of a personality as he is now," says senior character artist Kevin Anderson.
Chris Dionne, a senior game designer at Respawn, says "the bond between Jack and BT was one of those 'aha' moments in development."
I like the buddy vibe we're getting between the pair in the two clips above. But super weapons destroying entire worlds as the main story beat? C'mon man.
The Best Parts of Paradox Games Are Getting Easier To Get On Xbox One
· February 20, 2019
I do like the emphasis we are seeing on mercenaries and their rival Titans. You can see one of them at 0:45 in the first trailer. And again at 1:15.
We clamored for a Titanfall story, and Respawn is giving it to us. Everything I've seen so far looks solid. We'll just have to see how long it is and how much focus Respawn puts on the mercenaries versus the planet destroying superweapon.
Do you like what you see? Let me know in the comments.
Titanfall 2 is set for release on October 28. No EA Access trial or early editions here.

For some people, Halloween is *all* about the costumes.
But for others, it's the perfect time to get creative with your beauty routine.
Believe us, makeup is a great way to get in the fright night spirit (see our favorite Youtube tutorials here). However, if you want to take the less-is-more approach this holiday, then Halloween nails might be the perfect compromise. The one talon trend we're seeing all over Instagram? Ghosts.
1. Apply two coats of SinfulColors Black on Black as a base coat on each nail.
2. Make one stroke straight down the center of the nail with SinfulColors Snow Me White using the brush that comes with the bottle. Wiggle the brush around carefully, distributing the polish to get full coverage. Let it dry.
3. Using the brush from the SinfulColors Black on Black bottle, add polish to the top tip of the nail to detail the bottom of the ghost and add a jagged effect on the bottom of the ghost.
4. Use a liner brush with SinfulColors Black on Black to create a round dot for the open eye. Use the same liner brush to draw thin lines for the winking eye and lashes.
5. Make a crescent for the mouth with the liner brush and then fill in the crescent.
6. Use the same liner brush to draw a thin bow on the ghost's forehead.
7. Using SinfulColors Yolo Yellow with a liner brush, draw the tongue sticking out.
8. Add SinfulColors Green Ocean with a liner brush on top of the tongue.
9. For a fun effect, paint with SinfulColors Glow in the Dark polish on the white parts of the ghost as a topper.
10. Lastly, add a SinfulColors top coat.

Q: How to create a metric that isn't aggregated (AVG,SUM,etc.) on Google/Looker Studio I'm new to Google/Looker studios. I'm creating a dashboard for a manufacturing plant and we are focusing on the following metrics:
Produced Units
Scheduled Units
Assembly Yield - Calculated by Produced Units/Scheduled Units
I'm breaking down the data by month by assembly line number. I want a sum of the produced and scheduled units for the month, but I don't want an average for the assembly yield. The assembly yield can get skewed if I use an average of each day, so I'd like to do a straight calculation of "produced/scheduled".
The problem is that Google/Looker studios only let me do an average (as shown below). What is the best way to create a straight calculation of "produced/scheduled"?
Thanks in advance!

A: There are three kinds of formulas in Looker Studio:

*

*Dimension formula (allows to return a string)

*Metric formula

*Metric formula aggregated:
This returns a field, which includes the aggegation. In your case:

sum(Produced Units) / sum(Scheduled Units)

Let's see in a short example the issue of the averaging of percentages with different size distributions:

Line
Produced Units
Scheduled Units
Yield

Line A
50
100
50/100=0.50 %

Line B
10
10
10/10=1.00 %

Total
60
110
60/110=0.55%

Doing the average over 0.5% and 1.0% would result in 0.75%, which is the wrong answer for the total yield.

Weary of her humdrum existence, a woman packs up and heads for Arctic Quebec, where she hopes to find a new lease on life teaching native children. She quickly discovers, however, that the Inuit have far more to teach her than she them, as she slowly learns that each day on this earth is a rich sensory experience, not merely to be lived, but savoured. Loosely based on the author's own three-year experience in settlements along the Hudson-Ungava coast, Snow Formations takes a realistic look at the modern Inuit world through post-industrial eyes, always walking the fine line between idealism and cynicism, hope and despair. Steeped in contradiction, this is Canada's North with all its trappings: igloos and pool halls, raw meat and radio, dogsleds and diapers. The North may be great and white, but it is not always pretty. Snow Formations began as a thirteen-minute commission for the CBC Radio series "Home and Away," featuring new work by five Canadian poets writing from a cross-cultural perspective.

Palestinians aim to attract $1.5 billion investment
More than 300 investors, including a Saudi representative and a government minister from the United Arab Emirates, are expected to attend a conference from May 21 to 23 in Bethlehem, Foreign Minister Riad al-Malki told reporters.
Palestinian officials are aiming to attract $1.5 billion in investments next month, part of an effort to develop the economy as a step toward building an independent state.
Al-Malki said the Palestinians are seeking $1.5 billion in private investment to help fund about 105 projects, in addition to an ambitious $200 million plan to develop downtown Ramallah, the seat of Abbas' government.
Al-Malki said more than 1,100 investors have been invited, and more than 300 participants, including officials from the World Bank and European governments, have confirmed.
Representatives from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip also are expected, though they will not be members of the Islamic group.

The Shame of the Steroid Hunt
The Shame of the Steroid Hunt - 03-25-2005, 02:23 PM
By Matt Welch, AlterNet
Posted on March 21, 2005, Printed on March 21, 2005
http://www.alternet.org/story/21551/
Let's re-cap. A congressional body called the House Committee on Government Reform – not the House Committee on "Getting Past" the Fourth and Fifth Amendments, not the House Committee on Urinalysis, but the House Committee on Government Freakin' Reform – spent 11 hours on national television Thursday advocating several dozen illiberal measures that would give the government even more far-reaching power to harass individuals and neuter their labor unions. A microscopic sampling of these terrible ideas:
Federally mandated drug tests for all professional and amateur athletes, down to junior high school lacrosse players.
Ripping up federal labor laws.
Butting into the collective bargaining process of a single, targeted private industry.
Forcing private employers to share their confidential drug tests with the FBI.
The response from the nation's Fourth Estate? "Congress delivers heat, McGwire takes weak fifth swing"; "McGwire's image cannot be saved"; "McGwire whiffs on Hall [of Fame] pass."
In case anyone needed reminding, when sportswriters see someone holding a match to the Constitution, their instinctive reaction is to ask: "Where's the lighter fluid?"
Mark McGwire – who has never, to my knowledge, held a government job or enforced the nation's drug laws – had his reputation ruined by being forced to confront questions that suspected coke-sniffer George W. Bush and his non-inhaling predecessor never once had to face under oath. When the retired slugger concluded, reasonably, that answering specifics about his personal intake would put him at risk of endless government investigations, the reaction was as overwhelming as it was predictable.
"It could not have been more indicting," wrote Los Angeles Times sports columnist Bill Plaschke, "if he had begun picking his teeth with a syringe." (A week earlier, the constitutionally challenged columnist declared that anyone who refused to testify was "guilty.")
Plaschke, like all L.A. Times employees (and most American newspaper journalists) is subject to drug tests from his employer. The process he just applauded can now be used to confiscate his own piss, hand it over to the authorities and compel him to testify under oath, possibly without the benefit of legal representation.
Drug tests that baseball players assumed were confidential have ended up in the hands of federal investigators. The Government Reform Committee successfully subpoenaed records of all drug use-related punishment Major League Baseball has handed out for the past 15 years, even though that, too, was supposed to be between the Player's Union and management, as agreed upon in collective bargaining. At every step, across several overlapping government investigations and hearings, evidence that was supposed to remain secret – like, say, Barry Bonds' lawyer-free grand jury testimony at the BALCO trial – has been rushed into the public ***ain.
This public shaming of high-profile athletes – often enabled through expressly illegal means, such as the grand jury leaks – has been a conscious policy all along, far outstripping any real desire to prosecute criminals, or even get at the truth about steroid use.
The BALCO case got its start when a zealous Bay Area-based Internal Revenue Service investigator and former athlete named Jeff Novitzky became annoyed at the concept of a suspiciously muscular jerk like Barry Bonds breaking the all-time homerun record. "He's such an asshole to the press," Novitzky reportedly told an associate. "I'd sure like to prove it."
Ironically, Novitzky probably never will – at least in a court of law. Despite an investigatory fishing expedition of a grand jury, Bonds so far stands accused of no crime, and has only admitted under oath that he unknowingly and briefly used two substances that might have resembled illegal steroids. But the court of public opinion has already hanged Bonds as well, in part because Novitzky made sure the cameras were rolling when his team burst through the doors of BALCO back in September 2003, and because someone gave the San Francisco Chronicle the sealed court transcript of Bonds' testimony this past December.
By then, this had long been a national political issue. In January 2004, President Bush, a former minority owner of the Texas Rangers, took time out of his busy State of the Union speech to warn, remarkably, that, "The use of performance-enhancing drugs like steroids in baseball, football, and other sports is dangerous, and it sends the wrong message – that there are shortcuts to accomplishment, and that performance is more important than character."
I suppose the president is uniquely qualified to lecture us about "shortcuts to accomplishment," but unfortunately the Bully Pulpit generates other side-effects besides cheap laughs. Republican Senator John McCain threatened baseball with federal legislation this January, pushing the Player's Union to take the unprecedented step of ripping up its own collective bargaining agreement and making the drug-testing regimen much more intrusive and punitive.
But that still wasn't enough for Los Angeles Democrat Henry Waxman, who decided in late February that the Government Reform Committee – which hadn't issued a single subpoena in more than a year – needed to arbitrate the factual claims in former player Jose Canseco's book, Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant 'Roids, Smash Hits, and How Baseball Got Big. Canseco's ridiculous testimony, notable mostly for directly contradicting most everything he wrote in his book (like, for instance, that steroids are great), yielded one very telling reaction: committee members didn't even pretend to care whether he was telling the truth.
"I would have questioned you about credibility because you made some inconsistent statements," Maryland Democrat Dutch Ruppersberger told the former Bash Brother. "But the more I think about it ... you put it out there on the table and now we're dealing with it."
The same committee members thrashed Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling for actually coming clean – not about his drug use, but about his use of hyperbole, when telling Sports Illustrated a few years ago that steroids were rampant in baseball. His admission of "exaggerating," coupled with an unwillingness to immediately agree on the spot to year-round "zero tolerance" drug testing, led to many congressmen saying they were "disappointed" in Schilling's testimony.
But, like the press, they missed one stone-obvious con that was taking place right under their noses. Major League Baseball management, in the form of its loathsome, tax-sucking commissioner Bud Selig, successfully deployed Congress as a million-pound hammer coming down on his side of a labor negotiation. Congressman after congresswoman angrily dismissed all player and union talk of collective bargaining (the process, enshrined by federal labor law, by which the two sides arrive on working contracts), and placed nearly all blame for the "toothless" drug policy squarely on the shoulders of the employees.
It was a virtuoso performance, and may yield fruit sooner than even Selig dreamed – eternally meddlesome Sen. McCain warned this Sunday that "we ought to seriously consider ... a law that says all professional sports have a minimum level of performance-enhancing drug testing." Committee Chairman Tom Davis (R-Virginia) suggested the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency handle the urinalysis.
Selig doesn't give a damn about establishing the precedent of the federal government overseeing the excrement of private citizens, but that doesn't excuse sports fans. Search and seizure of private property should be a last resort, conducted with probable cause, unless agreed upon privately between union and management. One should not become a criminal suspect by putting on a uniform.

Start preparing now before it's too late. If you have good sources, keep them to yourself. That way you can still get gear when your buds and all of the professional athletes are shrinking.
