He won the 2006 Printz Award for his debut novel, Looking for Alaska,[3] and has had several of his subsequent books debut at number one on The New York Times Best Seller list, including his most popular novel, The Fault in Our Stars.[4] The 2014 film adaptation of The Fault in Our Stars opened at number one at the box office and was a commercial and critical success.[5] In 2014, Green was included in Time magazine's list of The 100 Most Influential People in the World.[6] Another film based on a Green novel, Paper Towns, was released on July 24, 2015.
Aside from being a novelist, Green is well known for his online content creation, most notably his YouTube ventures. In 2007, he launched the Vlogbrothers channel with his brother, Hank Green. Since then, John and Hank have launched events such as Project for Awesome and VidCon and created a number of online series, including Crash Course, an educational channel teaching literature, history, science, and other topics.[7] John also hosts the weekly comedy podcast Dear Hank & John and hosted the essay podcast The Anthropocene Reviewed, the latter of which he adapted into a book of the same name.

Green was born on August 24, 1977,[8] in Indianapolis, Indiana,[9] to Mike (born 1950[10]) and Sydney Green (born 1952).[11] Three weeks after he was born, his family moved to Michigan, then later Birmingham, Alabama, and finally to Orlando, Florida.[12][8] He attended Glenridge Middle School and Lake Highland Preparatory School in Orlando.[13] He later attended Indian Springs School outside of Birmingham, Alabama, graduating in 1995.[14] He used Indian Springs as the inspiration for the main setting of his first book, Looking for Alaska.[15][16] Green graduated from Kenyon College in 2000 with a double major in English and religious studies.[17] He has spoken about being bullied and how it had made life as a teenager miserable for him.[18]
After graduating from college, Green spent five months working as a student chaplain at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio, while enrolled at the University of Chicago Divinity School, although he never actually attended the school.[19] He intended to become an Episcopal priest, but the traumatic experiences of working in a hospital with children suffering from life-threatening illnesses and injuries made him reconsider his path. Parts of his experience inspired him to become an author, and later to write The Fault in Our Stars.[20][21]
Green lived for several years in Chicago, where he worked for the book review journal Booklist as a publishing assistant and production editor while writing Looking for Alaska.[8] While there, he reviewed hundreds of books, particularly literary fiction and books about Islam or conjoined twins.[22] He has also critiqued books for The New York Times Book Review and created original radio essays for NPR's All Things Considered and WBEZ, Chicago's public radio station.[22] Green later lived in New York City for two years while his wife Sarah Urist Green attended graduate school.[23]
Green's first novel, Looking for Alaska, published by Dutton Children's Books in 2005, is a school story and teen romance inspired by his experiences at Indian Springs, Alabama, fictionalized as Culver Creek Preparatory High School.[24] The novel was awarded the annual Michael L. Printz Award by the American Library Association, recognizing the year's "best book written for teens, based entirely on its literary merit."[3] It also appeared on the ALA's annual list, "Top 10 Best Books for Young Adults."
Green's second novel, An Abundance of Katherines was released in September 2006. The novel was a runner-up for the Printz Award and a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize.[25] Starting with An Abundance of Katherines, each of Green's books contains the word "deadpan" exactly once as an easter egg.[26]
With fellow young adult authors Maureen Johnson and Lauren Myracle, Green collaborated on Let It Snow: Three Holiday Romances (Speak, 2008), which consists of three interconnected short stories, including Green's "A Cheertastic Christmas Miracle," each set in the same small town on Christmas Eve, during a massive snowstorm. In November 2009, the book reached Number 10 on The New York Times Best Seller list for paperback children's books.[27] It was adapted into a film, Let It Snow, by Netflix, which was released in 2019.[28]
In 2008, Green's third novel, Paper Towns, debuted at number five on The New York Times Best Seller list for children's books.[29] In 2009, Paper Towns was awarded the 2009 Edgar Award for Best Young Adult Novel[30] and the 2010 Corine Literature Prize.[31]
After this, Green and his friend, young-adult writer David Levithan, collaborated on the novel Will Grayson, Will Grayson,[32] which was published by Dutton in 2010.[33][34] The novel debuted on The New York Times children's best-seller list after its release and remained there for three weeks. It was the first LGBT-themed young adult novel to make it to that list.[35][36] It was a runner-up (Honor Book) for two of the annual ALA awards, the Stonewall Book Award (for excellence in LGBT children's and young adult literature),[37] and the Odyssey Award for Excellence in Audiobook Production.[38]
In August 2009, Green announced he was writing a new book entitled The Sequel,[39] which was later scrapped. His sixth book, The Fault in Our Stars, was released in January 2012. He crafted the novel by collaborating with Dutton editor Julie Strauss-Gabel.[40] Green explained that several parts of The Sequel were reworked into The Fault in Our Stars.[41] Green signed all 150,000 copies of the first printing and his wife and his brother applied their own symbols, a Yeti and an Anglerfish (known as the "Hanklerfish"), respectively. The New York Times Best Seller list for children's books listed The Fault in Our Stars at number one for two weeks in January and February 2012.[4][42]
In late 2013, Green stated that he was writing a new book with the working title The Racket.[43] He sold 5,000 words of a rough draft on IndieGoGo for $10 each in order to raise money as part of the Project for Awesome charity event.[44] On November 16, 2014, Green wrote on his Tumblr page that he was not working on The Racket but was working on something else with a different title.[45]
In September 2015, Green announced that he would be taking a break from social media to focus on writing his next book.[46] In August 2016, Green stated that over the next ten months he would be limiting his public appearances in order to finish a draft of the new book.[47] But on September 20, Green took to his YouTube channel to say that he may not publish another book, citing his current writing experience as "this intense pressure, like people were watching over my shoulder while I was writing."[48]
On June 22, 2017, it was announced that Green's fifth solo novel would be entitled Turtles All the Way Down. It was released on October 10, 2017,[49] and debuted at #1 on the New York Times bestseller list.[50]
Starting in January 2018, Green wrote essays for his podcast The Anthropocene Reviewed, with each episode featuring Green reviewing "facets of the human condition on a five-star scale".[51] These essays were later adapted into a book, The Anthropocene Reviewed: Essays on a Human-Centered Planet, which was published by Dutton Penguin on May 18, 2021. The book was Green's first nonfiction book and sixth solo publication.[52] The book features revised versions of many of the essays from the podcast, as well as new original essays, ordered chronologically through Green's life to give the book the approximate structure of a memoir.[53][54][55] Green wrote about living through the COVID-19 pandemic in many of the essays.[56][57]
A number of Green's works have been adapted for film and television. The first of his novels novels to be adapted was The Fault in Our Stars, released in the United States on June 6, 2014.[58] Green filmed a cameo role for the movie that was not included in the final cut of the film. The film was number one at the box office during its opening weekend and grossed $307 million worldwide against a budget of $12 million.
The novel Paper Towns was subsequently adapted into the 2015 film of the same name.[59]
The film rights for Looking for Alaska were purchased in 2005 by Paramount, which hired Josh Schwartz as writer and director, but five years later, with no progress on the project, Green told fans that, while he "desperately loved" the screenplay, there seemed to be little interest at Paramount.[60][61] As sales of Looking for Alaska continued to increase in 2011, Green showed mixed feelings about a movie, which he felt would threaten readers' "intense and private connection to the story."[62] In 2012, the book reached The New York Times Best Seller list for children's paperbacks.[63] In May 2018, it was announced that Looking for Alaska would be made into a Hulu series with Schwartz and others on board.[64][65] The casting was announced in October 2018.[66] Looking for Alaska was released to Hulu on October 18, 2019.[67]
In December 2017, Green announced that a film adaptation of Turtles All The Way Down was in development by Fox 2000 and Temple Hill Productions.[68] In May 2018, Green confirmed that the film adaptation would be written by Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger, the screenwriters for Love, Simon.[69] In January 2019, it was announced that Hannah Marks would direct the movie.[70]
Influence and reception
Green at VidCon 2012
Green's rapid rise to fame and idiosyncratic voice are credited with creating a major shift in the young adult fiction market. While reviewing the Andrew Smith young-adult novel, Winger, A. J. Jacobs of The New York Times used the term "GreenLit" to describe young adult books that contain "sharp dialogue, defective authority figures, occasional boozing, unrequited crushes, and one or more heartbreaking twists."[71][72] According to the Wall Street Journal, "[s]ome credit him with ushering in a new golden era for contemporary, realistic, literary teen fiction, following more than a decade of dominance by books about young wizards, sparkly vampires, and dystopia. A blurb or Twitter endorsement from Mr. Green can ricochet around the Internet and boost sales, an effect book bloggers call "the John Green effect." Zareen Jaffery, executive editor of Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers said: "What I really like about what people are calling 'the John Green effect' is that there's more of an interest in authentic, genuine, relatable characters."[7]
Young-adult readers and authors, including Green himself, have been critical of the terms.[73] Green has voiced his disagreement with the idea that he is single-handedly responsible for launching or promoting any one individual's career.[73] Green has commented on these arguments: "My concern is that popular work by women receives far more vitriolic criticism from the public (like, in terms of several demeaning jokes...) than popular work created by men... Also, I would like to see equal attention given to the sexism in popular work by men, from Nicholas Sparks to, for instance J. D. Salinger. Catcher in the Rye—although I like it very much—is profoundly and disturbingly misogynistic and yet seems to get a critical pass both online and off. This happens a lot, I think, with books by men, and I don't want male writers (including me!) to get that pass."[74] Relating to this issue, Green has stated that he considers himself to be a feminist.[75]
Although his novels have earned mostly positive critical reception, Green had discussed what he believes to be flaws in his novels when he looked at them in retrospect.[76] Additionally, in response to a fan's tweet, Green apologized for using the word retarded in Paper Towns, stating, "Yeah, I regret it. At the time, I thought an author's responsibility was to reflect language as I found it. Still, now... eight years later, I don't feel like a book about humanizing the other benefited from dehumanizing language," adding, "it's not in the movie. I won't use the word again in a book or elsewhere."[77]

Green appearing in a Vlogbrothers video in 2016
In 2007, John and his brother Hank began a video blog project called Brotherhood 2.0 which ran from January 1 to December 31 of that year. The two agreed that they would forgo all text-based communication for the project's duration instead of maintaining their relationship by exchanging video blogs. Each submitted one to the other on each alternate weekday. These videos were uploaded to a YouTube channel called "vlogbrothers" (as well as the brothers' own website) where they reached a wide audience.[78][79] In what would have been the project's final video, the brothers revealed that they would extend their video correspondence indefinitely,[80] and as of 2020, they have continued exchanging their unique vlogs.
Since the project's inception, the duo has gained a wide-reaching international fanbase whose members identify collectively as "Nerdfighters."[81] The group, in collaboration with the two brothers, promote and participate in several humanitarian efforts, including the Project for Awesome, an annual charity fundraiser, a Nerdfighter lending group on the microfinancing website Kiva which to date has loaned over $4 million to entrepreneurs in the developing world[82] and the Foundation to Decrease World Suck, the brothers' own charity.[83]
In addition to the main VlogBrothers channel, the brothers have also created several side-projects. These include Truth or Fail, a YouTube game show hosted by Hank and a variety of guest hosts, and HankGames (either "with..." or "without Hank"), which consists mostly of screen-capture footage of various videogames.[84]
Main article: Crash Course (YouTube)
In 2012, following a grant from Google, John and Hank launched the short-format educational video YouTube channel Crash Course. The channel has grown to 44 series covering topics including history, literature, and science. All of the content is available for free and many follow the curricula for the Advanced Placement program.[85][86] John has hosted nine of the series including the first on world history.
Main article: VidCon
VidCon is an annual conference for the online video community. The Greens created the conference in 2010 in response to the growing online video community. Hank states, "We wanted to get as much of the online video community together, in one place, in the real world for a weekend. It's a celebration of the community, with performances, concerts, and parties, but it's also a discussion of the explosion in community-based online video."[87] The event draws many popular YouTube users, as well as their fans, and provides room for the community to interact. The event also contains an industry conference for people and businesses working in the online video field.[88]
Project for Awesome
Main article: Project for Awesome
In 2007, the Greens introduced the charity project entitled the Project for Awesome (P4A),[89] a project in which YouTube users take two days, traditionally December 17 and 18, to create videos promoting charities or non-profit organizations of their choosing. In 2012, they raised a total of $483,446, surpassing their goal of $100,000.[90] The event has continued annually, gaining more support and higher donations each passing year. In 2015, the total of money raised was $1,546,384.[91] Money is raised through donations to an Indiegogo campaign where supporters can pledge money and receive donated perks like signed photographs, books, and art in return. The Green brothers also donate one cent for each comment made on a Project for Awesome video during the event. There is a live stream that lasts for the duration of the Project for Awesome, which is hosted by John Green, Hank Green, and other YouTube personalities.
Mental Floss on YouTube
Main article: Mental Floss
Green was the host of the YouTube channel for the magazine Mental Floss from 2013 to 2018. He had previously been a contributing writer for the magazine for a period in the mid-2000s and had co-edited the book Mental Floss: Scatterbrained, to which his brother Hank had also contributed.[92][93] Alongside other presenters, like Craig Benzine and Elliott Morgan, John Green presented "The List Show" in which he listed off interesting facts centered on one particular subject, such as "26 amusing facts about amusement parks".[94] These episodes were directed by Mark Olsen and produced by John and Hank Green and Stan Muller. A new format, titled Scatterbrained, was introduced on the channel in 2018; Green was joined by multiple hosts on a single episode each week, which tackled one topic from multiple angles. In 2019, Mental Floss brought its YouTube production in-house and ceased using Green as the host.
Main article: Dear Hank & John
In June 2015, John Green and his brother Hank Green started a weekly podcast titled Dear Hank & John.[95] Taking a mainly humorous tone, each podcast consists of the brothers reading a series of questions submitted by listeners and offering their advice. The podcast closes with a news segment with two standard topics: Mars, presented by Hank, and AFC Wimbledon, presented by John.[96][97]
The Anthropocene Reviewed
Logo for the podcast The Anthropocene Reviewed
Main article: The Anthropocene Reviewed
In January 2018, Green launched The Anthropocene Reviewed, a solo podcast where he reviews different facets of the Anthropocene, the epoch that includes significant human impact on the environment, on a five-star scale. This can include completely artificial products like Diet Dr. Pepper, natural species that have had their fates altered by human influence like the Canada goose, or phenomena that only influence humanity such as Halley's Comet. Episodes typically contain Green reviewing two topics, accompanied by stories on how they have impacted his life.[98][99] Green adapted the podcast into a book of the same name released in May 2021 and subsequently ended the podcast in August 2021 after 36 episodes.[52][100]
Life's Library book club
In October 2018, Green founded the Life's Library book club with Rosianna Halse Rojas.[101][102][103] The book club reads a book approximately every 6 weeks, with online discussion occurring on the Life's Library Discord. Green and Rojas alternate choosing books, with guest curators occasionally making selections.[103] Life's Library is free to participate in, with paid subscription options available to receive digital or physical subscriptions, containing additional materials such as a discussion podcast, or a version of the book itself. All profits from Life's Library are donated to Partners in Health Sierra Leone to help reduce maternal mortality.[103]
Film producing
Green served as an executive producer for the Paper Towns movie. He has also entered into a production deal with the film studio Fox 2000 (which made the adaptation of The Fault in Our Stars).[104] Green announced that Fox 2000 will be making a movie about the formation of AFC Wimbledon, a soccer team that he supports. He will serve as producer along with Wyck Godfrey and Marty Bowen under their production banner Temple Hill Productions (who produced The Fault in Our Stars and Paper Towns).[105]
Personal life and public image
Green lives in Indianapolis, Indiana, with his wife, Sarah Urist Green, whom he married on May 20, 2006, and two children.[106][72] She worked as the Curator of Contemporary Art at the Indianapolis Museum of Art before leaving to start The Art Assignment, a web series with PBS.[107] In early videos on the VlogBrothers channel, Sarah Green is referred to as "the Yeti" due to her not appearing visibly on camera, though she no longer is referred to as such.[1] She made an appearance on YouTube in a Google Hangout video chat with President Obama, during which she and her husband asked the President whether they should name their unborn daughter Eleanor or Alice.[108]
Green endorsed Joe Biden in the 2020 United States presidential election and criticized Donald Trump on his policies.[109]
Green has stated that he is an Episcopalian Christian,[110] and was married in a Catholic church.[111] He has been an advocate for refugees, stating that "for those of you who share my faith, Jesus is awfully unambiguous about the poor, shelterless, and imprisoned".[112]
John is an avid fan of Liverpool F.C. of the Premier League and has publicly discussed English football.[113] John is also a shorts and stand sponsor of English League One club AFC Wimbledon, of whom he is also a keen admirer.[114] John has a gaming series on YouTube where he plays FIFA as the "Wimbly Wombles," a fictionalized version of AFC Wimbledon. Advertising revenue from the series is donated to the team.
Green has obsessive-compulsive disorder[115] and has been vocal about his struggles with mental illness.[72][116]
On July 14, 2015, Greg Ballard, the mayor of Indianapolis, proclaimed that that day would be "John Green Day" in his city.[117] That month, Teresa Jacobs, the mayor of Orange County, Florida, declared that July 17 would also be John Green Day.[118]
Social media usage
In 2015, a Tumblr post from user "virjn" generated media controversy, as it claimed Green is "a creep who panders to teenage girls so that he can amass some weird cult-like following."[119][120] Other users commented on the post, criticizing his writing and tagging Green to bring the post to his attention.[119][120] Green responded to the post, defending himself, stating, "Throwing that kind of accusation around is sick and libelous and most importantly damages the discourse around the actual sexual abuse of children."[120] Green added that he would use the social media website less often, stating, "I'm not angry or anything like that. I need some distance for my well-being."[77] Fellow young-adult authors Rainbow Rowell and Maggie Stiefvater came to Green's defense. Stiefvater wrote on Tumblr, "You can have your own opinions on Green's books and Internet presence, but the fact remains that he is a very real positive influence on thousands of teens. You're not just making sure you can't have nice things. You're taking away other people's nice things." In a subsequent email to USA Today, Stiefvater stated, "I had to say something. Not because of the nature of the posts, although they were distasteful and borderline libel. But because the grotesquerie was being force-fed to the author."[120]
On November 6, 2018, Green announced in a Vlogbrothers video that he would be taking one year off all social media, stating, "My attention has become extremely fractured, and I feel this constant pull towards checking [social media]."[121]

Q: Check if user is logged in - Ion Auth with Codeigniter HMVC I've just switched from standard CI to Codeigniter Skeleton with HMVC. I'm trying to check if the user is logged in and display a menu item according to the status.
This code works on standard CI with ion_auth:

<?php if (!$this->ion_auth->logged_in()): ?>

<a href="<?php echo site_url('auth/login'); ?>">Log in

<?php else: ?>

        My Account

<a href="<?php echo site_url('auth/logout'); ?>">Logout

<?php endif ?>

If I use this with HMVC and ion_auth, I get the following error:

A PHP Error was encountered
Severity: Notice
Message: Undefined property: CI::$ion_auth
Filename: MX/Loader.php
Line Number: 279
Fatal error: Call to a member function logged_in() on a non-object in C:\wamp\www\myapp\application\views\header.php on line 59

I've tried adding the ion_auth library to the autoload.php, but then I get a "Cannot redeclare class Ion_auth" error when clicking on the link or using any of the ion_auth routes.

A: I solved this by removing the following line from application/modules/auth/controllers/auth.php
$this->load->library('authentication', NULL, 'ion_auth');

And adding 'ion_auth' to the autoload.php
I can now use the ion_auth functions in both controllers and view and the default auth routes like /auth/login/ still work as expected.

When Moses prayed that blessed Christian prayer, the Lord said: "There is a place by me,... and I will put thee in a cleft of the rock," "and I will make all my goodness pass before thee." "And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by," I "will cover thee with my hand. And I will take away my hand," and you shall see me. Exodus 33:21-23. So, though every man should dread the terror of the consuming glory of the Lord in that great day, there is today a place by him. So we are to bid all souls; and from him I bid you, today, Come, and stand in this place by him, in the very presence of the flaming glory. Do not be afraid. Moses was not able to bear the fullness of that consuming glory that day; but the Lord, in his love, covered him with his hand, and protected him from the effects of that glory, which he was unable to bear.
The great trouble in that great day is that the people are not able to bear the glory. The kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, the chief men and the captains, and every bondman, and every freeman flee to the rocks and mountains to hide themselves, and say to the rocks and mountains, "Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb; for the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?" The blazing glory of God will shine upon the earth, and these people can not bear it.
But today do not be afraid. He says: "There is a place by me" there is a place "in a cleft of the rock," and "I will put thee in a cleft of the rock," and I "will cover thee with my hand," so that you can bear the blaze, and the purifying power, of my glory. And that consuming fire of my presence shall consume away all the sin. I "will cover thee with my hand,"—I will protect you even from that weakness which, in you, makes you unable to bear the fullness of my glory. And when he takes away his hand in that great day, those who have dwelt by his side, and been purified by living in this consuming fire until they are made white and tried, can look upon his unveiled face. In the full brightness of his glory, we shall look upon him, and see him as he is.
And that is where we are now, to look. With open face we can look, even now, into his face. For, in the flesh of Jesus Christ, God has veiled the annihilating power of the glory of his face; for, having shined into our hearts, he gives the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. In looking into the face of Jesus Christ, we see the face of God, and "we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory, to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord."
Then let every soul welcome the glorious message that God sends to the world, "Receive ye the Holy Ghost;" welcome that blessed Spirit that works this change by which we are changed from glory to glory, and made ready to meet him in that great day of glory; and welcome not only the Holy Spirit, but covet earnestly the best gifts, which the Holy Spirit brings when he comes. Desire spiritual gifts; for these are to bring us to perfection in Christ Jesus. Only in this way shall we be made perfect in Christ Jesus; and in Christ be made ready to meet him as he is.


WATKINS GLEN, N.Y. (January 18, 2016) – As winter sets in for the northeast, the Seneca Lake Wine Trail members enter what has historically been considered the "off season." Wineries typically adjust their hours to accommodate the shorter days and slower traffic, but many travelers are recognizing this as a perfect time to visit.
With harvest activities and equipment put to bed and the vines going dormant for the season, an owner, winemaker, or vineyard manager could be working a day in the tasting room which gives guests an opportunity to run into and chat with folks they may not have access to other times of the year. Wineries strive to provide an outstanding experience year round, but during these quieter days guests can expect to enjoy a significantly more leisurely pace to their tastings in comparison to the busy summer and fall months.
While some wineries may opt for only weekend hours, all are open through the winter and it couldn't be a better time to visit the Finger Lakes for guests looking for a more personal experience. Check the Trail website, SenecaLakeWine.com, for more details, or inquire at your favorite winery about the winter schedule.

Broad Collection's Diller and Scofidio are artist-architects
August 24, 2010 | 12:04 pm
Elizabeth Diller and Ricardo Scofidio, whose architectural firm Diller Scofidio + Renfro was announced Monday as designers of the Broad Collection building planned for Grand Avenue in downtown Los Angeles, are artists as well as architects. "Scanning: The Aberrant Architectures of Diller + Scofidio," a 2003 survey of their work at New York's Whitney Museum of American Art, featured a section devoted to architectural models (they hadn't yet actually built much). But most of the show presented architecturally related sculpture and site-specific installation art -- primarily notable for how old-fashioned it was.
A disappointing centerpiece, "Mural," was a robotic drill mounted on tracks that ran through the galleries. Whirring and buzzing, the drill would slide along the tracks, stop at random (or according to some unidentified program) and then bore into the gallery drywall, like R2D2 on a bender. A trail of holes peppering the walls left evidence of past movements.
Amusing to watch, "Mural" was also something of an eye-roller. "Slavish, if stylish, illustrations of hardboiled critical theory," one critic later wrote of their art.
The notion that museum galleries are not neutral spaces but are environments shaped by unexposed dimensions of power, social influence and manipulation was exciting in 1976, when critic Brian O'Dougherty's series of essays, "Inside the White Cube: The Ideology of the Gallery Space," first appeared in Artforum magazine. But by 2003, not so much. At the Whitney, the doctrine's rehearsal seemed redundant. Michael Asher and other important artists had been exploring the problem of art's purported independence even longer, since the late 1960s. And borrowing the title of Jackson Pollock's 1943 breakthrough painting, "Mural," for their techno-sculpture only made Diller's and Scofidio's installation seem that much more like a hothouse orchid.
Seeing it didn't make me curious about their art (I chose not to review the show -- but then, "Manet/Velazquez" at the Met and "Matisse/Picasso" at MOMA did offer pretty stiff competition). "Scanning" did, however, make me curious about how the pair's research into postwar art might affect their architectural practice. We've had some indication of that -- not least in their handsome, highly theatrical design for Boston's Institute of Contemporary Art, shown here, which transforms the museum building into a performance platform hugging the harbor's edge.
Now, we're about to get another good look on Grand Avenue.

Nyela decides she wants to design her own clothes rather than wear other people's and wins a place at The Athena, London's most prestigious college of visual arts. It is a fresh new start but also the start of new challenges for Nyela. The Athena is full of super-creative , super ambitious students – photographers, costume designers, graphic artist, fashion designers, jewellery makers – all intent on pursuing their dreams at any costs.

The day of my 40th birthday has arrived and it is my first day for playing the Wii!
So far I've got Wii Sports and Monster 4X4 World Circuit. I haven't played either game yet, but I think I'm going to have a good evening of game play with a few beers, a take away and the Wii-mote and Nunchuck!
Obviously games like Wario Ware (Smooth Moves) and Zelda have got to be given a try, but one of the main things I'm looking forward to is being able to try out some Gamecube games! Soul Calibur II featuring Link? Yes please! A better looking RE4? Yes please! Chibi Robo? Yes please! Donkey Konga? Yes please! In fact I've been itching to have a go of those damn bongos ever since I first saw 'em!
So now I can waste money on two more console's software! Oh happy day!
Happy Birthday fatherkrishna! Hope you enjoy the Wii.
You might want to pick up a copy of Eternal Darkness for the Gamecube. It's a great game and some people are complaining that they can't find it for a cheap price anymore. So you might want to pick up a copy.
I will search for it oh wise Caleb!
Congrats on the Birthday as well.
So Mrs. K is fast asleep... what time are the cosplay strippers turning up? I presume it was those two you posted over at your place?

DVI Lighting was founded in 1968 by Adam Altenberg, a holocaust survivor who brought his family to Montreal from war-ravaged Europe. At the time, the company was called Dominion Ventures and it sold lighting parts to the many lighting manufacturers in the Montreal area. Operating out of a small warehouse, the company specialized in selling the components necessary to make a light rather than the complete lighting fixture Dominion Ventures was developing an expertise of knowing lighting "from the inside out" and offered a complete, North American made line of parts to offer to the trade. At the time, most Canadian homes were decorated with Canadian-made lighting produced by relatively small manufacturers, and Montreal was the centre of the home furnishing industry in Canada.
By the mid-1970, The FLQ crisis and the increased flow of immigrants to Toronto both impacted on the emergence of a home furnishings industry outside of Montreal. Toronto had become the new manufacturing centre of Canada and so Dominion Ventures rented a small warehouse in a run-down section of downtown Toronto at John and Adelaide Streets.
Adam Altenberg, now joined by Sam Wineberg and David Elman, operated the same business out of the Montreal and Toronto locations through the 1970's and 80's. Adding new capabilities on over the years, Dominion Ventures retained a brisk business servicing the lighting manufacturers in Toronto, Montreal and a few in Manitoba & Western Canada.
FIRST STEPS AS RESIDENTIAL LIGHTING DISTRIBUTOR
In 1997, Dominion Ventures changed its name to DVI Lighting in order to reflect its new persona as a distributor of lighting. At first, chandeliers were manufactured in Canada, but it became quickly apparent to owners Sam Wineberg and David Elman that manufacturing in Canada was unrealistic given the price points of lighting being sold in the marketplace. To survive production had to move offshore, and slowly, the DVI line became a line of imported designs developed in Chinese factories.
Training the Chinese manufacturer's that quality had to take priority over mass
production was an endemic problem then as it is now, but as the relationships strengthened between the Canadian designers and the Chinese manufacturers a
harmonious relationship developed which still continues to this day. DVI's first home grown designs hit the market in 1999, blending fashionable design with pricing competitive to mass produced imports. This earned DVI a firm place in the marketplace and allowed it to become a primary lighting supplier to retailers in the Greater Toronto
Area for residential lighting.
dvi today
Today, DVI is one of the major players in the residential lighting across North America.
With administrative offices in Toronto, sales offices in Toronto and Dallas, and
warehousing in Toronto and Kentucky, DVI is positioned to offer product all across North
America.
DVI employs over 60 full time staff at the administrative centre in Toronto, and has full time staff in Quebec, Kentucky and sales management in place in the US. DVI also retains a North American sales team with over 60 commissioned sales representatives from
Alaska to Newfoundland, Puerto Rico to California.
With Robert Borg as CEO and Creative Director, the company continues to build upon its three founding principles; a strong commitment to annual design cycles keeping the
product line fresh and in fashion, offering pricing on product so average families can afford the line and feel that it has value in excess of its price point, and maintaining a fill rate for inventory so that retailers feel confident and trusting that when they need product, they will get it. We are committed to maintaining these values and continuing to
work every day towards getting better.

Why Might Karl Rove Be Smiling?
In the 2004 election, the GOP pioneered the use of political datamining and microtargeting–sending individualized messages to voters based on such variables as the magazines they subscribed to or whether or not they ordered college football packages from their cable stations. They identified their likely voters and used messages tailored to the concerns of each voter–family values, low taxes, gun rights, whatever–to get them to the polls. Republicans were able to reach voters directly, intimately, and without using clunky television ads that might energize one constituency while alienating another. A candidate could stress her support for free trade and open borders to Reason subscribers, her pro-life credentials to National Review subscribers, and her support for Israel and democratizing the Middle East to Weekly Standard subscribers, directly, privately, and without the risk of upsetting libertarians with anti-abortion rhetoric or social conservatives with a pro-immigration stance.
The polls look uniformly bad for Republican prospects of holding both Houses of Congress (although at various times the House has looked safer than the Senate, and vice versa), but suppose the GOP had something better than polls: suppose they had a database of people they knew would go to the polls and vote for their candidates? Instead of extrapolating from a weighted sample of 660, a thousand or twelve hundred voters, suppose that, district by district, Republicans have a pretty accurate count of how many votes–total votes–they're likely to get (and, of course, an estimate of how many they need to win).
Dowd estimated that, in part through the work of TargetPoint and other research, the Bush campaign and the RNC were able to "quadruple the number" of Republican voters who could be targeted through direct mail, phone banks and knocking on doors.
"Very few people understand how much work it takes to get this technology to actually produce political results. We are one election cycle behind them in this area," said a Democrat who helped coordinate voter contact in the 2004 campaign.
Suppose Replubicans are still a cycle ahead? Predicting elections on the basis of polls might be like assuming that because 400,000 people subscribe to a newspaper, all 400,000 are going to read the lead editorial, rather than skipping to the comics page to read Beetle Bailey, Dilbert or Zippy the Pinhead. Maybe Rove really does have a reason to smile.
Caveat one: this Washington Post story provides some caution in thinking that microtargeting will make that much of a difference in individual races, and suggesting that the polls have some validity. But see also caveat two: this post from Dan Riehl on polls taken two days before the 2002 elections compared with final results in those same races (although this may say more about individual pollsters than it does about the overall reliability of polls).
It's also worth asking, in an age of increasing media fragmentation, what messages are getting through to individual voters and from what sources–from newspapers, radio, television news, political ads, or from phone calls from phone banks from callers who have some inkling that someone's top issue is taxes or immigration or the War on Terror or health care.
Bottom line: While nobody ever gets rich betting on the Cubs after the Fourth of July, as the saying goes, and I will never get rich betting on anything–politics being no exception–it would be well worth looking at how much Republicans are spending on TargetPoint Consultants and National Media Inc. in 2006, and how much Democrats are spending on their microtargeting efforts.


Cristiano Ronaldo is better than Lionel Messi: Carlos Varela has insisted that Real Madrid attacker Cristiano Ronaldo is way better than Barcelona star Lionel Messi.
Carlos Varela has insisted that Real Madrid attacker Cristiano Ronaldo is way better than Barcelona star Lionel Messi.
Varela told that Ronaldo is not like Messi who is just proving himself at Barcelona. Ronaldo has already proved in England when he was at Manchester United.
People who thinks Messi is better than Ronaldo are jealous from the Ballon d'Or winner. The former Basel man also added that Messi cannot even reach the level of the Portuguese man.
The 29-year-old is the favourite player for the coming Ballon d'Or award, if he wins then it will be his third Ballon d'Or.
Former Basel midfielder told Spanish media AS that the only reason why Ronaldo has less Ballon d'or is the jealousy. People have created a negative impact of him.
Ronaldo would have won more Ballon d'Or than the Argentinean if he were ugly. His smartness, physic all are the major reasons of jealousy.
Messi who has won four Ballon d'Or awards recently became the all-time top scorer in La Liga and Champions League with 253 and 74 goals, respectively.
Ronaldo who has scored 277 goals in 264 games since his move to Loc Blancos from Manchester United in 2009 is continually compared to Messi who has scored 371 goals in 442 appearances.


Australian Desert Lime or Wild limes have an intense lime flavour without the tart edge that traditional limes have, I can eat them quiet easily alone. Like all limes they are extremely versatile. There are a number of native limes that have been developed, the Desert Lime being one of them.
Wild Limes were used as a food source by Indigenous people, the easy pioneers to Australia harvested them for use in jams and preserves and they are now an extremely popular lime on many restaurant menus.

Prototype remasters struggle to best old-gen versions
Report: Testing reveals performance issues for updated open-world action series.

The remastered versions of Prototype and Prototype 2 that recently stealthed their way onto Xbox One are, according to Digital Foundry, left wanting, in some respects even when compared to the old-gen originals.
During the report it's revealed that they tested the performance of the new Xbox One versions, and compared them directly to the originals on PS3 and Xbox 360, and the results are not at all impressive.
According to the report, the first game has the same draw distance as the original, runs at 30fps, but drops to 20fps with some screen-tearing when rendering on-screen explosions. Not a disaster, but perhaps underwhelming considering the power of the new console hardware. At least the visuals are a bit crisper thanks to the 1080p resolution.
The Prototype 2 remaster, however, sounds like a mess, with the report detailing stuttering cutscenes and intrusive screen-tear (at times the Xbox One remaster has lower frame-rates than both the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions).
The report also states that the PlayStation 3 version regularly provides a smoother experience than its Xbox One counterpart. Ouch.
It's unclear whether these issues will be present in the PS4 remasters, which are set to be released on July 22. Time will tell.
If you're still intent on revisiting Radical's open-world series but don't want to buy both games at the same time, they will also be available to purchase individually in August.

Just a few weeks ago, on September 17, the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee (FOMC) decided to leave the fed funds rate unchanged. In part, this was because, "Recent global economic and financial developments may restrain economic activity somewhat and are likely to put further downward pressure on inflation in the near term."
The next day, September 18, stock markets tumbled. By the time September was over, many markets had closed on their worst quarter in four years, according to the BBC. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell by almost 8 percent, Britain's FTSE 100 was down 7 percent, Germany's Dax was off by almost 12 percent, and the Shanghai Composite lost more than 24 percent.
Last week, on Thursday, the minutes of the FOMC meeting were released. Investors' response was quite different. Barron's reported many believe a rate hike during 2015 is less likely than it once was, and that reinvigorated investor optimism:
"Going into Friday's session, global equity markets' valuations were enriched by some $2.5 trillion, according to Bloomberg calculations. As for U.S. stocks, Wilshire Associates reckons that they tacked on 3.44 percent, or approximately $800 billion, over the full week, based on the gain in the Wilshire 5000 index, their biggest weekly gain in nearly 12 months."
Why does the same news elicit two very different responses? There are many reasons. Foremost among them is the fact a lot of elements influence markets--investor confidence, company valuations, central bank actions, automated trading, and many others.
What does last week's upward push mean? One analyst cited by Barron's suggested we're seeing a bear market rally, but only time will tell.
DO YOU HATE DOING LAUNDRY? THEN, YOU MAY BE IN LUCK. The world's most recent laundry bot was introduced at Japan's 2015 Combined Exhibition of Advanced Technologies (CEATEC), a technology trade show. The Telegraph reported the robot was developed to eliminate the tedium of laundry, which (as moms and dads everywhere know) is one of the least popular household chores. Not only does 'Laundroid' wash and dry clothes, it also can sort them, fold them, and put them away in a cupboard.
If you're thinking, it sounds to good to be true, you're right--for now. Digital Trends pointed out Laundroid works quite slowly:
"The last laundry-folding robot we saw in action took a long time to get a small towel neatly folded into a little rectangle, and that was with the video sped up. Laundroid is no faster, based on a demonstration at the CEATEC...It took several minutes for the robot--hidden inside a futuristic-looking black cabinet--to fold up a freshly washed T-shirt, according to Engadget. Although it did the task decently, if not in Martha Stewart-approved style, it's obviously not ready to take on a basket full of jeans and sheets."
The fly in the ointment is the bot must determine a shirt is a shirt, and a pair of pants is a pair of pants, and so on, before it can fold items. After all, each item is folded differently. Socks, it seems, pose a particularly ticklish challenge. So, how long does it take? Laundroid needs about seven hours to fold a basket of clothes.
If you have a lot of laundry, you may want to check back in a few years.

Drill for Solid Contact
Making solid contact with the center of the golf ball is one of the biggest fundamentals to making more consistent shots. How and where you hit the ball will affect the spin, launch angle, distance, curve, and path of the ball - everything. It can also affect your perception of your swing. That is to say, off-center contact can lead you to believe you have other problems with your swing, causing you to change your swing dynamics to compensate. To be a great ball striker you need to have the ability to hit the ball in the exact center of the face.
Here's a great drill that will help you dial in your contact: Next time you're on the course, take along two extra balls and a permanent or dry erase marker. If you're using range balls, definitely use the dry erase marker so that you won't permanently mark them up.
Using your marker, draw a big dot on the ball so that you can see where you're striking the ball each time by where your impact mark compares to the dot. If you find that you're hitting the ball too much on the toe or heel of the ball, you can use the following drill.
If you're hitting too much ahead of the dot, set up two balls in a line away from you, with the dot ball being the one farthest from you. Often, the cause of toeing the ball is striking with your arms too close to your body. Tee up to the closer ball but strike the dotted ball to help yourself feel the right extension in your arms.
If you have the opposite problem, tending to heel the ball, perform the same drill but place the dotted ball closer to you and tee up on the farther ball.
Do you really need a financial advisor?
If there is one thing that many investors "know for sure," it's that the need for financial advisers went out the window with the advent of online trading and index mutual funds.
Is that true? Are advisers the 21st Century equivalent of the buggy whip?
Not according to a recent research report by Vanguard called "Advisor's alpha." Vanguard suggests that advisers can help add value if they "act as wealth managers and behavioral coaches, providing discipline and experience to investors who need it." Here are three areas where Vanguard suggests advisers can add value.
Avoiding bad behaviors
In the most recent version of the study, Dalbar showed that the 20-year average returns for the Standard & Poor's 500 Index and Barclays Aggregate Bond indexes were 8.21% and 6.34% respectively. You would expect the average investor return to be in the same general vicinity as the benchmarks. Instead, the average equity investor earned just 4.25% per year and the average fixed income investor earned just 0.98% per year over the same 20-year period.
Vanguard suggests that "Advisors, as behavioral coaches, can act as emotional circuit breakers in bull or bear markets by circumventing their clients' tendencies to chase returns or run for cover in emotionally charged markets."
Asset allocation is a critical element of portfolio return. Some studies conclude that as much as 90% of portfolio return can be attributed to asset allocation. Vanguard points out that many investors "neglect it on their own, overlooking its contribution to their long-term investment success."
Having a suitable asset allocation cannot only bolster returns, but it can have an important psychological effect as well. Vanguard suggests that knowing the allocation "was arrived at after careful consideration, rather than as a happenstance of buying funds with attractive returns ... can serve as an important emotional anchor during those all-too-frequent uprisings of panic or greed in the markets."
Tax-efficient strategies
Taxes can have a significant effect on portfolio return. This is especially true during retirement when investors begin to draw money from their accounts.
A competent adviser can help clients design a distribution strategy that takes taxes and other important considerations into account, which can increase financial security. Again, according to Vanguard: "A well-thought-out drawdown strategy can improve the likelihood that the client's assets will be able to support his or her financial goals through retirement and beyond, which is a significant - if hard to quantify - added value."
Depending on your situation, a full service wealth manager may be able add value in many more areas than the three listed above. If you or someone you know would like help to analyze your financial position and determine whether or not professional wealth management can add value, please contact my office for a complimentary review.

By Means of Ink and Paper: The Civil War Correspondence of Edwin & Sarah Sinnet
Title: By Means of Ink and Paper: The Civil War Correspondence of Edwin & Sarah Sinnet (GHS Pocket History Series #4)
Editor: Maggie Brooks
The Civil War affected nearly every family in the North and South, having the highest number of casualties per capita of any war in which the United States has been involved. The 620,000 men who died represented 25% of all soldiers. Dr. Edwin Sinnet and his wife, Sarah Wright Sinnet, of Granville were among those affected by the war. Dr. Sinnet served as a field surgeon and as medical director of hospitals near the battlegrounds. Sarah was his young wife, left at home to cope with the difficulties of managing a household and two young children during his years of service. This volume reproduces excerpts from the letters they wrote to each other during those tumultuous years. The letters are a fascinating glimpse into their daily lives and concerns, containing comments on why the war was necessary, the life of soldiers in camp, instructions on how to handle money matters, and the ailments of people on the homefront.
The Pocket History series presents short, readable introductions to topics in Granville's history.

2015 Year in Review: Town Planning, Masterplanning and Urban Design
Graham Stephens
News - Awards
News - Thoughts & Opinions
In this article, Graham Stephens, Director for Town Planning, Masterplanning and Urban Design, picks out the team's highlights from 2015, including the key projects and team expansion, and looks ahead to the coming year.
As we start 2016, it's a good time to reflect on what we achieved in 2015 and how our Town Planning team moves forward this year. 2015 was a rather monumental year for us and in December we were well placed to submit three entries to the 2016 Royal Town Planning Institute Awards for Planning Excellence.
We are delighted to announce that two of those entries were successful and we have been shortlisted for two awards, the 'Planning Consultancy of the Year', and 'Excellence in Planning to Create Economically Successful Places' for Swansea SA1 Waterfront Innovation Quarter; a fantastic result for the team!
Aside the awards, the breadth and depth of our engagement in a number of commissions throughout the last couple of years has moved the team in a different and constructive direction. So, what have been our key highlights?
Royal Holloway University of London
Well, it isn't every year that planning permission is secured for a net increase of 55,000m2 of academic floor area and an additional 71,000m2 of student accommodation (c.2,650 beds) on a site predominantly in the Green Belt and in the grounds of a Grade 1 Listed Building.
Our success at Royal Holloway University of London was down in large part to integrated Town Planning, Masterplanning and Stakeholder engagement strategies devised and executed by our team. An EIA project with a large multi-disciplinary team, we secured a 20 year development framework in the form of an outline planning permission.
The permission has already proved helpful in that Andrew Renshaw (Senior Associate in Bristol) has subsequently secured consent for a c10,000m2 new Library designed by Associated Architects located opposite the Founders Building (described as the finest Victorian Education Building in the country) and the first 621 student study bedrooms designed by our student accommodation team. Permissions have also been secured, or are being prepared for a multi-sports pitch complex, new Science Building, Estates Office relocation and car parking revisions.
Royal Holloway University of London masterplan
Perhaps the project with the greatest potential overall benefit, highlighted in the fact it has been shortlisted for an RTPI award, is that promoted by University of Wales Trinity Saint David, focused on the transformation of the former Swansea Docks into the SA1 Waterfront Innovation Quarter.
The commission has been a unique challenge for the University. Their operational requirements represent only c20% of the floor area capacity of the c.25acres of land they acquired from the Welsh Government, resulting in difficult decisions around the distribution of uses across the site.
The spatial framework which has been created by Stride Treglown meets the University's ambition for the area, not just in the context of locating its own activities within the site, but also presenting attractive waterfront sites to the investment market. The process, not just the master plan or planning permission (resolution) outcomes, has encouraged collaboration with commercial, enterprise, residential, and creative industry partners.
Collaboration is at the heart of the SA1 project and the reason why we consider our planning-led master planning process, and the University's development strategy, should be recognised as the engine for economic change in the Swansea Bay City Region.
The complex variation of condition and obligation schedules were developed by Jonathan Pritchard (Associate, Cardiff), with the Environmental Statement Addendum collated by myself. Paul Seaver (Senior Associate, Bristol), Pierre Wassenaar (Regional Director, Cardiff) and Jason Butler (Urban Design assistant) on the master planning side delivered a clear, robust and viable development framework and Design Code, with architectural instructions already secured to deliver the phase 1 academic buildings.

Hampshire Critical Treatment Hospital
The year also saw the planning team promote new medical delivery strategies for the NHS. Appointed by the Hampshire Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, the planning team coordinated a multi-disciplinary consultant team and provided town planning and EIA Co-ordination services to deliver and secure a hybrid planning application for a c.34,000m2 Critical Treatment Hospital (CTH) and 4,000m2 Cancer Treatment Centre (CTC) on a green field site just outside Basingstoke.
Mike Harris (Associate, Bristol) with support from myself, led an integrated planning application and public consultation and stakeholder engagement strategy which required close, multi-disciplinary working across an extensive design and technical team, including concurrent architectural team involvement both within, and external to, the practice (Hassell: site master plan and CTH; BDP (CTC)).

Priority School Building Programme
Education continued to offer opportunities for the Town Planning team. The Priority School Building Programme (PSBP), funded under the Private Finance Initiative (PF2), is a centrally managed programme set up to address those schools most in need of urgent repair. The North West England Batch contained a concurrent mix of 12 primary and secondary schools that will provide new, purpose-built buildings for the benefit of approximately 8,150 pupils as well as 124 nursery places.
Our instruction related to securing permission for six schools within the batch, while offering a comprehensive planning policy analysis for the six residual school projects. Each new school will be provided within existing school site boundaries and which will remain operational during construction of the new accommodation.
Working with a disparate and multi-disciplinary technical team, Tom Lambshead (Associate, London) orchestrated the simultaneous preparation of the six applications, five of which were submitted on the same day: the last within the following week. All six planning applications gained approval by the prescribed target date, enabling funding to be released to progress each project in a timely fashion. Tom Mills (Planning Consultant, Bristol) and Richard Anderson (Associate, London) were also engaged to secure permission for schools projects around the country.
Paignton and Collaton St Mary Masterplan
The Planning team do not only get involved in planning applications. Plan making is equally important and 2015 saw the adoption, as Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG), of our Paignton Town Centre Masterplan, prepared for Torbay Council through the SW Consultants Framework with Gleeds UK.
The Collaton St Mary Masterplan, for around 450 units as a phased village expansion, is destined for a SPG off the back of the recently adopted Local Plan. Paul Seaver and Martin Pain led the masterplanning endeavour, with input from Sandra Tuck (Senior Planner: Bath) and myself in relation to community and stakeholder engagement, planning policy compliance and drafting.

With a bolstering of the team in Senior Planning Consultant Coral Ducroq (from Merthyr Tydfil Council) in the year, the experience and expertise our clients are able to draw upon is as strong, if not stronger, than ever before.
Boosted by our RTPI National Award in 2013 for our involvement in the Heartlands Project, we felt that not only our Trinity and Torbay Masterplan commissions deserved RTPI Project Award entries (for the categories of "Creating Economically Sustainable Place" and "Plan Making Practice" respectively), but that the variety of work, successful outcomes and enthusiasm within the team deserved recognition. We therefore were delighted to submit an entry for the National Planning Consultancy of the Year.
As I said, winning isn't everything. The mere fact that we have a strong story to tell and feel able to promote the team on a national field and hold our heads high is a positive end to the year. With only 9 Planners, we are a relatively small team, but I hope time will show that we are entering a new chapter at Stride Treglown and that we can perform well against the national planning consultant competition.
