So for my first board game review I thought I would write about a little card game that has been getting a lot of play around our house since it was purchased, this game would be Jaipur. At first glance, the game doesn't appear to be much beyond a deck of cards and some cardboard chips. But once you get into this game, it will definitely show you that there is more here than meets the eye.
The cards themselves appear to be of some pretty good quality that should last a while, even if you do not sleeve your cards. The cardboard pieces also are nice and sturdy and should have a nice long life themselves. The art in this game is nicely done. The colors are vibrant on both the cards and the tokens and the art style easily conveys the value of each color.
The game is setup with the tokens being separated by color (or goods as how they are referred to in the manual), each pile is placed in descending order of value. There are also bonus tokens which are separated by number value which are shuffled and placed in piles in between the goods tokens. A lone camel token sits next to all the tokens waiting to see who can control the most camels at the end of a round for a few more bonus points. Three camel cards are placed face up between the players and the remaining cards are shuffled and five cards are dealt to each player. After dealing the cards, two cards are flipped over and placed next to the three camels to start the market. The remaining cards make up a draw pile which is placed between the two players. If any player is dealt a camel in their opening hand, that card can immediately be placed in front of the player in a pile making up what is referred to as this player's herd.
The game play consists of a player making one of two actions which are the taking or selling of cards. The main object of the game is to try to sell as many of the same goods on a single turn which will net you the most tokens. If you sell more than three of any good, you then get the appropriately numbered bonus token as well. If you are going to take cards on your turn, you can either take several goods exchanging them with cards from your hand or camels from your herd, or you can also just take one single good at which time you would then just flip over one card form the draw pile. You can also decide to take all the camels in the market. If you take all the camels, keep in mind that the cards are replaced from the draw pile so you never know what you may be possibly giving your opponent a chance to obtain on their turn. The other action you can take is the selling of cards and as I stated above, the more cards of a single good you can sell at one time the better. If you are going to sell any of the three higher priced goods, being silver, gold or diamonds, you need to sell at least a minimum of two of these cards. When you sell goods, you get to take the appropriate amount of tokens from that colors token pile and if you sell three or more cards you get to take the appropriate numbered bonus token depending on how many goods you sold. There are a few things to remember in that you can never have more than seven cards in your hand at the END of you turn and you can only sell one good of any type on a turn.
A round will end when three types of goods tokens are depleted or if there are no cards left in the draw pile when trying to replenish the cards in the market. At the end of a round each player will total their tokens and the winner will receive a Seal of Excellence. The winner of the game is the first player to obtain two Seals of Excellence.
This card game may appear to be very simple but the strategy that becomes apparent after a few sessions of play becomes instantly deep. While trying to save up the higher priced goods will net you more points, sometimes waiting for those cards to come your way can give your opponent the ability to start selling lower cost items in larger quantities and obtaining the bonus tokens. Also, like I stated above, the camels can really come into play at very crucial times within the game. I have played many a game where the number of camels keeps going back and forth between the players while they try to trade for the best and costlier goods or sometimes taking a herd full of camels, is your only option. In many games I have both enjoyed the camels and despised them within the different rounds. One of the things I really enjoy about Jaipur is how easy it is to learn and how easy it is to teach. You can normally have the game setup within a few minutes and have the explanations of the rules completed in probably less than five minutes. After a new player gets a round or two under their belt, they will start to see the different types of strategy that can be used throughout the game and after playing this game for quite a while I still feel like I am trying different ideas when playing. Some of these strategies have worked quite well and others, well, let's just say they need to be polished a little bit.
Jaipur is definitely a game that is on my What I'm Playing Now list. The game is perfectly priced for what you get within the box and this is one game that should definitely be in every gamers collection.

2 blasts strike Myanmar's biggest city
YANGON, Myanmar (AP) — Two explosions shook parks near busy thoroughfares in military-ruled Myanmar's largest city Tuesday night. An official said there were no casualties although onlookers saw one man being led to an ambulance.
The official said it was not immediately clear what caused the blasts in Yangon. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to release information.
Security personnel rushed to the sites of both blasts and blocked off one road, while soldiers and police stopped and searched vehicles along another main thoroughfare that passes by the sites of both explosions.
The was no immediate comment from the ruling junta — standard practice in the tightly controlled nation where almost all government comment is released through state-run media.
Witnesses said the first blast took place at about 9:40 p.m. at a small park in western Yangon near Myeinigone junction, a busy area with a bus terminal.
The explosion could be heard several blocks away and witnesses saw smoke rising from the scene. Police and soldiers arrived with bomb-sniffing dogs, and onlookers saw a man being walked to an ambulance.
The official said no one was injured.
The witnesses said the second blast, shortly after 11 p.m., occurred by a bus stop next to another park at Kamayut junction, another busy thoroughfare. Several truckloads of solders were quickly deployed to the area.
Terrorism is rare but not unknown in Myanmar, which has been under near-continuous military rule since 1962. Several small bombings occurred in Yangon last year, injuring about a dozen people.
The government usually blames bombings on its political opponents or ethnic rebel groups seeking autonomy. The groups deny carrying out such activities.
The deadliest such attack in recent years took place May 7, 2005, when three bombs went off almost simultaneously at two upscale supermarkets and a convention center in Yangon, killing about two dozen people and injuring more than 160 others. The perpetrators remain unknown.
In recent years, bomb explosions have also been reported in other parts of the country, notably at transport terminals and on buses, the most-used form of transportation.

Massachusetts enacts law raising minimum wage to $15

June 30 (UPI) — Massachusetts will progressively raise the state's minimum wage to $15 per hour.
Gov. Charlie Baker signed legislation Thursday to hike the wage from its current level of $11 per hour.
Under the new law, Massachusetts' wage will increase to $15 by 2023 — a pace similar to California's, which will top out at the same rate in 2022.
The first increase will start in January.
The law also says workers will receive time-and-a-half pay on Sundays and holidays, and gratuity workers' hourly wages will rise to $6.75.
The measure also creates a paid family and medical leave program to be funded with payroll taxes — allowing employees to take 12 weeks a year to care for a family member or care for a new child, 20 weeks to deal with a personal medical issue and 26 weeks to care for an injured service member.
Baker thanked the parties for finding a compromise.
A national movement to raise minimum wages in a number of states has been going for years. So far, Massachusetts and California are the only ones to go to $15. The federal minimum wage is at $7.25, but hasn't changed since 2009.
Massachusetts, California, Washington, Arizona, Vermont and New York currently have the highest minimum wage rates in the United States.
$15 by 2023

FAIRBORN — The City of Fairborn donated funds and two land lots to Habitat for Humanity. By this time next year, two families are expecting to be settling into their new homes.
The lots are both located within the 300 block of Dayton-Yellow Springs Road and neighbor each other. The families who will soon call the sights their new home, have been identified and fundraising for the project will soon get underway. Construction is expected to start by mid-2018 and wrap up within 16 weeks of the project start date, or by September 2018.
As part of the agreement, the city authorized a donation of $5,000 for each lot as well. Frost said funds will go toward constructing the homes.
Both lots formerly included a home. However, in 2009 one of the properties was identified as a nuisance and went through the abatement process. The city purchased the lot and demolished the home in 2010. The city has been maintaining the land ever since. The other property was declared a nuisance in 2009 and was abated and assessed back to the property. In 2010, the home was demolished. However, foreclosure in 2015 would put the property and responsibility of maintaining the lot back into the hands of the city.

Basgal and Lahij
Villages High Up in the Caucasus Mountains
Photos by Oleg Litvin
If some world-weary traveler ever tries to tell you, "If you've seen one mountain village in the Caucasus, you've seen them all," don't believe them. This statement is anything but true. Take the case even of two villages-Basgal and Lahij located adjacent to each other-at least as the bird flies-and physically are separated only by a steep ravine.
Photo: Lahij is famous for coppermaking.
Both are very old and difficult to reach, but their populations are quite different from one another and from other Azerbaijani mountain villages. One important difference is that the people in Lahij speak Tat, a Persian language, but the people in Basgal speak a Turkic language. If you've already traveled the four plus hours from Baku and braved the treacherous narrow mountain road to visit either Lahij or Basgal, it's worthwhile to take in the other village as well so that you can see just how unique they are.
Basgal
The village of Basgal is built like a fortress. In fact, the root "gal" ("gala") means "fortress." The people are Turkic in origin. There are about 1,000 houses in Basgal, clustered along the side of the mountain. In this village, no house is allowed to face the facade of another. If you want to build a house, you have to build it so that it doesn't face the windows of another person's house. Therefore, every house faces only the back of the preceding house. Consequently, very few houses have windows looking out onto the street.
Everywhere there are stone pavements and cobbled roads. The houses are not like village cottages surrounded by big gardens or yards; rather they are multi-storied houses, much like city buildings. Most of them have balconies. The streets are narrow and winding, with barely enough room for one car to drive through.

Each quarter of the village has its own water source, as there are no wells there. Mountain water that comes from springs further up the mountain is referred to as "light water" because it is more filtered and tastes better. Unfortunately, not every quarter of Basgal has easy access to "light water."
Zulfugar bey, who is originally from Basgal and now lives in Baku, spoke about the lack of agriculture in Basgal. He said that people usually plant a few flowers in their yards or have one tree in their courtyard. All kinds of produce, even eggs, have to be imported from outside. Once a week there is a big market in the center of Basgal where people from neighboring villages come and sell food. Zulfugar bey remembered: "We would always distinguish ourselves from those who came from other villages. To us, they were 'villagers;' we never really considered ourselves 'villagers.' Only after I came to Baku did I realize that we were villagers, too."
Basgal used to be famous for its silk industry. Some people believe that it was Basgal that made Azerbaijan's silk especially "kelagays"-world-famous. Ancient silk-weaving machines are still kept in some Basgal houses today.
There are two mosques in Basgal: one dates back to the 11th century, the other to the 14th century. Near the older mosque stands a huge tree that is supposedly 900 years old. It is so large (7 meters across) that there used to be a "chaikhana," or teahouse, in the cavity of the tree. The chaikhana has since been closed for fear that it might cause damage to the tree.
The village's bath house dates back to the 16th century. There is a legend that this bath house is heated by only a single candle. In fact, there is only one oven where wood is burned for heating the water. The amazing thing about this bath house is that the oven not only heats up the water; the heat somehow gets underneath the floor and heats the whole bath house.
The town of Lahij high in the Caucasus is connected to the outside world by a rugged dirt road that winds its way around precipitous gorges. During severe weather it is impossible to get to Lahij, but during the best of weather, the journey is dangerous. There are no guardrails to separate you from 300 foot drops to the rushing river below. Landslides of huge boulders also present a danger.
Lahij is surrounded by tall mountains that are layered with limestone, sandstone and clay. Stone from these mountains was used to build most of the houses in the village. Once in town, you'll probably notice that the houses seem to have been placed there randomly, without any set plan, along the narrow and winding cobblestone streets. All of the houses have flat roofs, and some feature balconies that look out onto the street. If you get a chance to step inside one of the small courtyards, you'll be likely to see a "tendir," which is an oven used for baking bread. On the other side of the courtyard, you'll usually find a stable or a chicken coop.
Inside the houses, you'll find a heating device called a "kursu." A kursu is a big table placed above a kerosene stove or hearth and covered with a big blanket. In the winter, the entire family gathers around the kursu to stretch out their legs and warm their feet. Even families that are financially secure who use fireplaces to warm their guest rooms, put a kursu to warm their own family's room.
Many of the 2,000 people living in Lahij are involved in ancient crafts such as engraved copper work and carpet weaving. In the mid-19th century, there were more than 200 workshops in Lahij. Traders discovered Lahij crafts many centuries ago, and sold them for high prices at bazaars in Baghdad [now Iraq], Shiraz [now Iran] and other Middle Eastern cities. Stop by a copper workshop for a impromptu lesson in ancient craftsmanship you'll get to see coppersmiths use small mallets to decorate plates, trays, jugs, goblets and pitchers, just as their ancestors have done for centuries.
On the streets of Lahij you'll also come across "attar" (folk medicine) shops. Not far from Lahij is a cold water source with a high sulfur content; many people go there in hope of curing their skin problems. Also, make sure to see the history museum, the 13th century sewage system, the aging Caravanserai (hotel for travelers with camel caravans) and Ghirdiman Fortress, which dates back to the 5th century.
Why is Lahij so different from its neighbor village across the way? Local legend tells that Iranian Shah Kay Khosrow retired to this village in the Caucasus because of its pleasant climate and picturesque scenery. The people consider themselves to be Persian in origin, in particular descendants of Kay Khosrow's original court, and say that the village was named after a place called Lahijan in Persia. They maintain that the Shah died and was buried in Lahij. In the Zavara cemetery, there's even a grave with a tombstone that clearly reads "Kay Khosrow," along with other tombstones that date back more than 1,000 years ago.
Perhaps a 1,000-year-old tombstone doesn't seem out of place in such an ancient village. Such an artifact fits an observation made about Lahij in a recent U.N. report about Azerbaijan: "Lahij has preserved its communal harmony and social cohesion across the centuriesThe spirit of the Middle Ages still lingers there."

As part of good dining manners it is important to sit up straight at the table and to make sure that your elbows do not rest on the table or for you to lean on them when eating.
It may be a rule of etiquette not to put your elbows on the dining table, but is there a reason for this?
It can block other people from being able to reach items on the table.
You are more likely to knock something over.
When your elbows are on the table, your spine is bent forward, your ribs are pushed inwards and your stomach is squeezed between the two. This is bad for your digestion.
It may be acceptable at the end of a meal when everyone is just relaxing and chatting.
Glad you have the same opinion and like my blogs!

China's humongous radio telescope has reaped an impressive harvest of special signals from a galaxy 3 billion light-years away. The signals, known as fast radio bursts (FRBs), are extremely short but very powerful emissions of radio waves. Even though we're still not sure what FRBs actually are, or where they come from, these particular signals were traced to emitter FRB 121102, one of the few FRBs that have been caught repeating.
The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST) has been scanning the patch of sky where FRB 121102 originates and was able to detect more than 100 signals between August 30 and the first few days of September. This is the highest number of bursts detected so far for this source, with 20 pulses observed on September 3 alone.
FRB 121102 is one of only 10 known FRBs and the first one to be discovered. The fact that it is repeating made it possible to find its origin, a dwarf galaxy 3 billion light-years from Earth, and its likely source, a neutron star moving through an incredibly powerful magnetic field. There are still uncertainties about how these bursts are produced, however, and much more data, like these observations FAST collected, is needed.
FAST is the most sensitive listening device in the world. The single-radio dish is built in the Dawodang depression, Guizhou province, south-west China and measures 600 meters (1,968 feet) across, making it the world's largest telescope. As of yesterday, the telescope is considered fully operational by Chinese scientists and has been submitted for a national review, where it will move from being an under-construction project to a full working facility.
"Once we pass this review, FAST becomes an accepted telescope for exploring the Universe," JIANG Peng, FAST's chief engineer and deputy director of FAST Operation and Development Center, NAOC, said in a statement. "FAST has been open to Chinese astronomers since April 2019. After the National Construction Acceptance, it will be open to astronomers across the world."
FRBs are some of the most incredible astronomical events we have ever observed. They last for just a fraction of a second. Recent estimates suggest that maybe over 150 such events could be seen from Earth every day. Given than most of these are a one-off, finding them is just a matter of serendipity, looking at the right spot at the right time.
Detections of these events have increased in the last few years, and we are now also capable of following up the detection in real-time. We are yet to have a complete picture of FRBs but we are gaining more and more insight with each new observation.

Rene Ricard, New York City, July 29, 1986. Photo: Allen Ginsberg.
FOR THE LIFE OF ME, I can't remember exactly when or where I first met Rene Ricard. But it had to have been sometime in the spring of 1981 that our editorial bond was forged. Bets are I hooked up with Rene, in one way or another, through Edit deAk, the first writer I'd brought to Artforum when I stepped in as editor with the February 1980 issue; back then, deAk's antenna for changes and breakthroughs in art and the discussions around it, particularly in the contemporary American-European nexus, was like lightning's attraction to metal. She could zap it like no one else. "A Chameleon in a State of Grace," her wide-ranging piece on Francesco Clemente, published in the February 1981 issue of Artforum, caused a buzz, especially among younger artists; of course, the reigning establishments were horrified. Not Rene. DeAk's article was the first thing that Rene and I talked about. He said we needed to go on the record about Julian Schnabel's work next. Note the we, as if we were already partners, when I had just met him minutes ago. No matter, I was in.
How could I not want to go on a dangerous mission with him? Eyes with sensory and electrical impulses that always reminded me of a camera's aperture. One minute you saw something light-filled and charming in them; the next they were darting around, globes in a skirmish with life. By the time I met him, his Factory days were over, but Rene's charisma was not lost on Andy Warhol, who cast him in Kitchen (1965) and Chelsea Girls (1966), among other films. For my money, though, this poet, critic, painter, was born to play a thief and a priest. He could fake other people's art almost convincingly, and had a definite moral compass. From the moment we pledged to do the Schnabel piece, we were glued together by the work. It was only a matter of days before Rene started showing up with the bits and pieces he was building into the article, which would eventually be called "Not About Julian Schnabel" and would be published a couple of months later, in the summer of 1981.
Rene's independence was fierce and never for sale; it and his red Olivetti typewriter, a proud possession, his few artworks that he'd received as gifts, and his poems were pretty much all he had. He put his time in at the Chelsea Hotel, but during the period when he wrote for the magazine, he lived here and there in borrowed flats, mostly thanks to the respect and affection of close pals. Rene's Artforum pieces were not written in order for him to climb any academic ladders, or get tenure, or for the usual career enhancements. I quote from one of my favorite of his poems:
All you sycophants and grant hustlers.
I will never chase the rich again. Let me starve.
I will never apply for a grant. Let me starve.
I must look out for my biography. After all,
I may be a pariah but I am still and always
Will be a living legend. I'd rather starve.
I hold sacred what goes on between a writer and an editor during the process of creating a work, and I will never spill what happens in that "room of our own." But I can say that Rene's critical essays were constructed the way he might lay out a poem: not necessarily in chronological order, eventually put together the way a builder might go at a house, brick by brick. The two best-known essays from our period of working together at Artforum were written barely a year apart: "The Radiant Child," starring Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, graffiti, that moment, van Gogh, and so much more, was published in December 1981; "The Pledge of Allegiance" appeared in the November 1982 issue, which bore a camouflage logo and a picture of an industrial typewriter on its cover. Here Rene was making a pledge to an attitude, as well as to artists including Futura 2000, Basquiat, and the poet Duncan Smith, and also to Patti Astor's Fun Gallery. He meant it. I quote from his pledge: "I have made my liaisons in print and as these artists' fortunes rise and fall so do mine. I will be forever in league with them, and if they slip I'll look like hell. I have championed them. I've pledged allegiance, I've signed my name, and there my reputation sits."
Rene could be wild. There was one patch while he was working on "The Pledge of Allegiance" when he basically asked me to save him from himself. He wanted to hunker down and write but was worried that when the sun went down, temptation would get the better of him, and he'd hit the clubs, taking God knows what while he was at it. So he gave me the keys to the apartment he was borrowing, and I'd show up every day to check on him. Our exchange: He'd hand over whatever paragraphs or pages he'd come up with, and I'd bring a little feast for him to celebrate his progress. I'm sure I got the better end of the deal.
There was only one time that Rene scared me; it was my fault. I'd been asked to choose a group of Artforum writers to speak at a little symposium on art writing at Books and Company, then a mecca for meetings between New York's literary world and its art world, and only a few doors down from the Whitney Museum of American Art. Rene was among the panelists that evening. I could tell he was amped on something, maybe moonshine, maybe something more illegal, or perhaps just pure Ricard juice, before he went on, so I cautioned him to watch what he said. Big mistake. He went on to insult a number of people in the room, including calling an art dealer who was present by her primate nickname. The sense of shock was palpable, but that just egged Rene on. I should have known better than to try and tame him. I had never attempted to before, and I never did again. Why mess with his refusal to censor himself? It was a gift.

Sons of South Carolina: The Mobros' Homecoming
April 14, 2016 - Posted in Palmetto Scene by Kaitlyn Park
Straight 8 Entertainment
With a catalog that wakes the spirits of the likes of Otis Redding and Sam Cooke, vibrant harmonies, a lush wall of sound and often haunting lyrics, it is not surprising that the past few years have been good to the genre bending Mobros. Since 2013, the group was hand-selected by B.B. King to be the opener for his Southeastern Summer tour dates, released an album, "Walking With a Different Stride" in 2014, lived in Chicago for a stint, and went on several cross-country tours, traveling just about 12,000 miles.
The group consists of brothers Kelly and Patrick Morris, guitarist and drummer respectively. Their current bassist is Canaan Peeples of Barnwell, South Carolina.
"I met him in the Classical Guitar program at USC. Canaan is very much like a brother because of the rural upbringing. He had been on most of our tours just along for the ride. One day we decided to give him a bass and now he's our official bass player." Kelly laughs.
But despite their travels across the continental United States, the Morris Brothers find themselves content to be on the porch of their parents' home in Camden on an afternoon in mid-April. This porch becomes the perfect setting for the brothers to ruminate on their roots in the historical, Southern hamlet that is Camden—the oldest inland city of S.C. and the Steeplechase Capital of the World.
"There's old Camden, historic Camden, but where we grew up is right near the Wateree River. Our school would take us down there where there were these Indian burial mounds—I feel like we always knew this was an old place, people have been here for a long time. King Hagler, who was the Catawba chief; he met with Kershaw, one of the first settlers. Our town's symbol is him shooting his arrow." Patrick reflects.
"Through all of these music towns, there's always the river. Memphis, Nashville, Muscle Shoals, all these essential towns for music have a river. We grew up next to a river. There's something to that. There's something about being next to a river."
From an early age, both Kelly and Patrick felt compelled to become musicians, a pursuit that their parents encouraged. Kelly was inspired by a front desk manager at his Montessori school in Camden to begin playing guitar at age seven. "She kept a guitar in her office…she was a hippie-like lady who lived out in the woods," Kelly recollects. He would later study under Rusty Davis, father to acclaimed signer-songwriter, Patrick Davis. Kelly credits Rusty with introducing him to artists like Crwam, BB King, Derek and the Dominoes and Led Zeppelin.
Patrick began with piano at age four, then graduated to classical piano, but as he looked to his older brothers, Kelly and Casey, who played bass, he decided he wanted something "more fun" and "stumbled upon" the drums.
Patrick remembers his first group in middle school trying for the school talent show—they did not place. At the suggestion of some classmates, and specifically, the brothers both remember, the cheerleaders at Cardinal Newman, the Morris Brothers finally united their musical efforts and became their own group. They would win the talent show that year.
Cardinal Newman and its faculty and students would become facilitators for the young artists in many ways. "Cardinal Newman was very crucial," Kelly states. "It made us more close-knit. We were at the right place at the right time, doing the right thing I think. They jump-started us."
Students would pass around burned copies of the group's first attempts at home recordings; their Jazz Band teacher would encourage listening to and practicing obscure standards that would greatly influence the Mobros' style. Their drama teacher Patrick Boos would serve as their bassist for a period of time. Their first real t-shirt was from a piece of artwork a classmate drew. Both brothers were surprised when the advanced physics teacher, a nun at the parochial school, bought one of the shirts.
"We were pulled aside by this disciplinarian...he was feared...everyone was afraid of this dude, Mike Bolchoz. I thought I was in trouble. He calls me in and says, 'Hey Kelly, come in here for a second. I want to show you something.' I'm thinking I'm in trouble, and he says, 'I used to own this bar in Charleston for fifteen years, come on in. I want to introduce you to this guy I used to book at my bar.'" Kelly recounts.
Patrick adds, "He pulled me in once and I was freaking out, and he had a stack of CDs, just a stack of CDs that he handed me and said, 'Check these guys out.' It was strange—we had a certain dynamic with these teachers. They were really into what we were doing, but we were also students there."
The soccer coach, Coach Eudy, would secure their first "real gig" at the since-closed Hard Knox Grill on Knox Abbot Drive in West Columbia, where they would also meet their first manager. They opened for D.B. Bryant, a rock guitar player with a wild following.
"I remember we were terrified because we were opening for our first show, and there were all of these bikers, and all of the Cardinal Newman kids were coming out. A lot of them were still in their outfits from the football game. It's a packed house and all we had to play were some of our originals and then Ray Charles, Sam Cooke and Otis Redding covers, and they just ate it up." Kelly muses.
Columbia would become a sort of launch pad for the brothers: a catalyst to hone their craft and draw inspiration. The brothers would meet Carrie Ann Hearst of Shovels & Rope and Samuel Beam of Iron & Wine at (the also since-closed) White Mule, a music venue on Main Street in downtown Columbia.
"I think Papa Jazz is a huge influence, too. I was just saying to someone the other day, it's a real gem for Columbia. People will travel to go to that store. They have a huge collection. That was a huge thing, being young and being introduced to records through that store." Patrick says. The brothers would make their pilgrimage to the Columbia music fixture for rare finds in their repertoire and fellowship with others in the Columbia music scene.
The brothers remember when local radio station 93.5 was Rock 93.5 and one of their singles, "Shake," recorded in their bedroom, was featured on the Local Hour, Sunday at 12 a.m.
"We were asleep! But our friends all heard it and came to school and were so overwhelmed. It was so neat that Columbia, to us in high school, a Charlotte-sized city, was playing our music and a local DJ had found us."
As time continued for the group, they would, as many do, feel the desire to leave home. Their song "Mississippi Woman" likens the constraints of your surroundings to a "state wide penitentiary." The brothers would go on their first real tour, move to Chicago, then complete two other tours. But being back at home in Camden, they see that although they may have left South Carolina, the South would come to breathe through their music, and is what has given them their distinctive sound and style.
The two recall an instance where a stranger approached them in Colorado. The man had moved across the country from South Carolina and expressed that their music had made him feel less homesick for the state.
"We have spent our whole lives in South Carolina. We grew up running through the fields and forests around Camden. It was sort of this majestic upbringing. Our songwriting reflects the landscape, people, foliage, and a plethora of different fragrances from the area." Kelly considers.
"The way that I see it, we were collecting pollen the whole time. We imagined ourselves as bees when we swam in the Wateree River, rolled around in the horse fields, when we were climbing trees, catching lizards, and running wild through the bamboo. Many childhood journeys were had in Camden. When it was time to write, we poured all five senses into our literature over the kitchen table. I believe that without the pollen, we wouldn't have anything to write."
The Mobros will begin working on their next album in 2016, with plans to potentially move somewhere in the South. For the first time since their 2014 Album Release show, The Mobros will appear at the New Brookland Tavern on Friday, April 15, with openers Watson Village, and Gardener and the Willow.

Security token offerings have made it into the mainstream of cryptocurrency discourse in the last one year. Till date, many people still wonder about the differences between security tokens and other cryptocurrencies.
The rise of cryptocurrency certainly took the world by storm and at present, the strides made by security tokens look commendable. The scrutiny of the US SEC is a major reason for the emergence of STOs and this is not without reason.
In the 2017/2018 cycle, several initial coin offerings came to the market, and tons of billions of USD were raised. However, with the huge attention that attended the crypto market came the rise of scams and outright shitcoins. This was not unexpected.
The emergence of several ICOs with little or no product or service to offer the investor drew a lot of backlash. It became glaring that many of the public offers were scams that had nothing of worth driving them.
Someone can ask-why should anyone buy an ICO or STO? The answer is simple- the drive for profits and capital appreciation. The truth be told, a genuine public or private offer provides an opportunity to make money.
When a new business goes public, the potential for growth can be enormous. This is without prejudice to whether it is blockchain-driven or not. The world has seen the stupendous appreciation of Apple stock today. Same can be said of Google or even Facebook.
The parallel of the above can be seen in either Ethereum, Bitcoin or Tron. Each of these crypto came to the public at peanut valuation. Today, their real values are in tens of billions of dollars. Given this scenario, it is clear that early investors did hit the megabucks for their efforts.
Security tokens are so described if they are underlined by a tangible asset, or a defined profit share. So, unlike utility tokens which are issued for a use in a given ecosystem like Bitcoin, security tokens are different.
When the scrutiny of US SEC made the headlines last year, it was due to the resolve to eliminate the rip-off in the ICO markets. So, why initial coin offerings could sprout up overnight, STOs requires more time and painstaking effort.
To a greater extent, the work required for the issuance of STOs can be said to be more laborious. Planning an STO would mean taking care to ensure that all the items on the US SEC checklist gets the greenlight.
In looking at security and utility tokens, what has to be considered is that STOs provide a better platform for accountability. However, this is not to preclude the element of deceit or fraud. The traditional IPO can be manipulated and an STO cannot be said to be so exempt.
The present regulations for security tokens took a cue from the US Supreme Court ruling that is now known as the Howey test. It is the classic case that identifies what qualifies as an investment contract.
The specification can be found in the US securities Act of 1933 and the related 1934 Act for the Securities Exchange. Using the Howey test means a world of difference.
Once an investment contract can be identified as a security, it means it has to be regulated. This is a crucial element that has made many companies brace up for change in the crypto scene.
For an STO to make it to the market then, it has to follow a laid down set of regulations. What is applicable at present is that anyone offering an STO has a compliance list to adhere to.
For example, most STOs that make it to the US market try to use the Regulation A+ exemption clause. This qualifies them to use a crowdfunding provision with a cap of $50 million.
Each of the above stated four requirements definitely subjects the offering company to more public scrutiny and this helps the cause of investors.
One of the major fallouts of STOs is the rise in KYC (know your customer) compliance across board. So far, many players in the crypto scene have started implementing KYC compliance. This is the background to the use of whitelists by many crypto organizations so far.As an anti-money laundering prop, KYC sheds greater light on who is who, and traceability is enhanced. This is a world of difference from the ICO journey of 2017/18/.
Most ICOs as seen in the past year or two were done and dusted in about two weeks. The common approach was for the issuer to provide a smart contract and a crypto wallet address.
Everyone who participates in an ICO gets a token allocation at the end of the day. This made ICOs fast and a precise way to raise funds. However, the STO route is not the same. More time is needed to adhere to regulations, or the issuer could risk litigation.
One of the distinctions of STOs is that subscribers have to deal with a lock-up period. This means that subscribing could mean not having a chance to sell off the token in as long as 180 days.
Many ICOs bypassed this clause to attract more subscribers. However, putting up your funds in an STO means you have done your homework. It also means you will be willing to wait out the lock-up period.
STOs and ICOs have many similarities that are not in doubt. The clear path is that many organizations would have to use the STO route in the coming days. Cryptocurrency regulation is gathering momentum across the globe and the investor is the better for it.

I can't tell you much about Andy Espinoza, except he does some lovely drawings. I only wish there were more images on his website.
Daniel Enkaoua is a French painter, whose work makes me think of a cross between the Spanish realists like Antonio Lopez Garcia and the expressive mark making of someone like Ann Gale.
Irish illustrator-turned-painter Kenny McKendry produces some strong work, full of character.
The ambitious complexity of many of Rose Frantzen's paintings are seems to be matched by a lot of energy and verve. It's great to see a former student of Richard Schmid taking his lessons to heart without copying his mannerisms, creating something very much her own but with the wisdom of the lessons learnt.
I seem to be most drawn to landscapes at the moment, so I've been looking at the work of Peter Wileman. He's the president of the Royal Institute of Oil Painters. He's one of a host of painters around who are strongly influenced by Edward Seago. There are a lot of strong almost exaggerated colour effects in his work, but personally I prefer the paintings with a more natural palette.
Marc Dalessio is an American landscape painter working in Europe. I've long admired the decisive and precise colour mixing in his work, with which he is able to capture the light. Somehow he conveys very clearly what it felt like to be in a particular place – the temperature, the humidity, the quality of light, the time of day, and ultimately the mood.
His website, which functions as a blog, is well worth following.
Charles Weed is an American painter who studied in Minneapolis and Florence. He's married to Louse Camille Fenne, who is also a gifted painter. I'm personally more drawn to his landscapes, but his figurative work is very strong too. He's managed to carve out a distinctive look to his work without, it seems to me, forcing a style for the sake of it. A feathery shimmering light unifies his figurative and landscape work.

IAM opposes Delta on issues that harm U.S. aviation jobs
Kate Modolo
Sep 2, 2015 5:23pm
The Machinists Union (IAM) continues to oppose Delta on key issues that affect jobs at U.S. airlines.
This week the IAM issued a call to action for its 600,000 members to support a full reauthorization of the U.S. Export-Import Bank.
The Machinists union claims the Bank's loan guarantees "...create U.S. jobs by helping foreign companies buy American-made products, like Boeing aircraft and John Deere tractors."
However, the majority of Ex-Im's financing goes to airlines that are owned by governments or are otherwise creditworthy and don't need the Bank's help to purchase new aircraft. And, when the Bank provides these airlines with a loan guarantee, they receive below-market financing rates – a subsidy of up to $20 million per aircraft – to compete directly against Delta and other U.S. airlines.
Read more: Ex-Im Bank Remains Unauthorized into the fall
Delta is not opposed to the mission of the Bank, but believes that the Bank should not subsidize foreign companies that compete against U.S. workers, and that it should honor its mandate as a "lender of last resort."
The IAM is making a direct request of its members to advocate against the interests of U.S. airline employees and in favor of foreign competition. Meanwhile, the Machinists Union remains silent and at odds with seven airline labor groups who are working alongside American, Delta and United in the Partnership for Open & Fair Skies to advocate for U.S. airline jobs and fair competition with foreign airlines. The coalition has garnered strong support from members of Congress, community leaders and mayors across the nation in urging the U.S. government to address the massive subsidies state-owned Gulf airlines receive that tilt the competitive playing field and violate Open Skies agreements.
Over the past two years, Delta employees have participated in multiple legislative fly-ins to Washington, D.C., to educate Congress about Delta's Ex-Im and Gulf carrier subsidy concerns.

This wsp has 2 features, one scoped at application level (FeatureA) and one scoped at site collection level (FeatureB). Both can be seen and activated/deactivated from the respective UI's.
I would like to know how to activate them via powershell.
I tried:

A: This has happened to me when I try to enable a feature from a SharePoint server that does not have the SharePoint service running: Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Web Application . The web sites are not hosted on IIS on these servers and the layouts folder do not have the features deployed to them! A common practice is to turn off the Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Web Application on a dedicate APP/Central admin server. But then you cannot enable features.

Boeing stops deliveries of 737 MAX
Boeing Aviation Corporation cut off shipments of its 737 MAX airliners after their flights were banned in the United States. Previously, almost all countries of the world refused to use the aircraft, and a number of states closed their airspace for this model, sources in the company said.

The bans were caused by a plane crash in Ethiopia, when 157 people died, and the earlier accident in Indonesia, which killed almost 190 people. "Who would buy an aircraft that cannot be used?" - one of the sources told.
The corporation produces 52 airliners per month, but sources did not specify how many of them make up the Boeing 737 MAX family.
However, according to them, the company keeps producing this model at a plant near Seattle, and plans to increase production from June. Manufacturers avoid production shutdowns, as this disrupts the supply chain and can lead to large-scale problems.
Operation of all aircraft of the Boeing-737 MAX family is temporarily suspended. The last aircraft of this family, which was in the sky, landed at Canadian Halifax airport. It was an Air Canada flight from San Francisco.
Boeing itself supported the decision of the US authorities to impose a temporary ban on flights of type 737 MAX aircraft, but expressed full confidence in their safety.
"Boeing is still fully confident in the safety of 737 MAX aircraft," the company said in a statement. "We support this preventive step as a precautionary measure," said Boeing Chief Executive Officer Dennis Muilenburg commenting on the temporary ban imposed by the United States.
According to him, the main priority of Boeing is aircraft safety. "We are doing everything possible to understand causes of air crashes together with the investigators," he added.
Meanwhile, the US Federal Aviation Administration officially announced suspension of operation of the Boeing 737 MAX. Initially, this step was announced by US President Donald Trump. "The United States Federal Aviation Administration has temporarily banned Boeing 737 MAX flights operated by US airlines or on the territory of the US airspace," the department said in a statement. It states that such a decision was made taking into account "data collected at the scene (the plane crash in Ethiopia) and analyzed today."

boost last year when it was selected for a special exhibition by trendy Paris shop French Trotters, which brings together the work of cutting-edge designers from around the world.
These various influences and collaborations have allowed the designer to blur the boundaries between fashion and other arts. Apparel becomes graphic design and vice versa, while musicians become models (a one-way process so far, thankfully). At a recent live exhibition in Tokyo, Hotta bypassed the traditional catwalk altogether, instead draping a mannequin with a white sheet and projecting photographs of various outfits onto this blank canvas, to the accompaniment of a DJ. It was odd, but it worked. If more young designers take risky, unconventional approaches like this, Tokyo's reputation as a center of fashion creativity should be assured.


PHILADELPHIA- The Coast Guard assisted two people aboard a vessel taking on water east of Cape May, New Jersey today.
Watchstanders in the Coast Guard Sector Delaware Bay Command Center in Philadelphia received notification at about 10 a.m. that a 52-foot vessel with two people aboard was taking on water 6 miles east of Cape May, New Jersey.
A 45-foot Response Boat-Medium boat crew launched from Coast Guard Station Cape May, arrived on scene and began dewatering the vessel. The pump was able to keep up with the flooding while the Coast Guard boat crew escorted the recreational vessel to the Canyon Club in Cape May Harbor, New Jersey.


How to 🤔 verify work rights of foreign workers? We know already that this and that visa has work rights while others don't have. The question now is this: How can you ascertain if a particular foreign employee of yours has work rights at certain times in the duration of their contract with you? VEVO comes with help.

While Temporary Graduate visa Australia serves as a way of the government to entice talented graduates to consider taking on jobs here where there is a shortage of local talent, it also proves to be a coveted visa on the part of graduate students as it permits you to live, work, travel or further your studies here after you have completed your chosen course. In other words, this visa is mutually beneficial for you and for the Australian government.
Australia student visa interview questions and answers. GTE assessment (Genuine Temporary Entrant) is a part of a student visa requirement. Quite often cases officer wants to discuss with a prospective student the reason, why he or she wants to study in Australia. Here's a first-hand conversation between a prospective student and a case officer.
As a student, you may ask yourself if it is really a good choice to spend your time volunteering. Most students who say "yes" find that there are both immediate and long-term benefits to serving. The advantages are so clear that most schools and universities promote and advertise opportunities for students to volunteer. If you are still uncertain as to whether to try it out, consider the potential benefits of volunteering.
Australian student visa rejection reasons ☹ A disappointing situation that should not happen to you. Remember: visa application form must be filled in properly, required documents must be attached, and submitted in due time with the visa application fee to the department, otherwise your visa might be rejected.


Project Summary: D&R Greenway Land Trust and multiple partners have protected over 3,500 acres of habitat and natural resources in central New Jersey's Sourlands region – with more preservation projects to come.
New Jersey the most densely populated state in the country and a recent Rutgers University study warns that if development continues at its current rate, New Jersey will become the first completely "built out" state within 30 years. Central New Jersey , where the Sourland Region is located, is among the fastest growing and most threatened regions of the State. Covering 90 square miles and rising to 568 feet above sea level, the Sourlands spans three counties, five townships and 2 adjacent boroughs and one small city. Due to recognition of the Highlands and Pinelands as high preservation priorities, and growing job markets between the New York and Philadelphia metro areas, the Sourlands has experienced increasing pressure as one of the last undeveloped areas of central New Jersey . The Sourlands region, particularly its large areas of contiguous forest, has been called an island of biodiversity in central New Jersey. In addition to their essential role in protecting the water supply for over 1 million people in New Jersey , the unbroken forests, wetlands and grasslands of the Sourlands provide the required habitat for many species of birds, plants and other wildlife.
Neotropical migrating birds such as the Scarlet Tanager breed in the Sourlands in spring and summer and winter in the forests of Central and South America . Other deep forest birds that find a home in the Sourlands include wood warblers such as the Oven Bird and songbirds like the Veery, Wood Thrush and Rose-breasted Grosbeak. All of these birds require large areas of unbroken forest interior habitat and do not breed in isolated patches of woodland. Sixty five species of neotropical migrant birds depend on the Sourlands for the survival of their kind.
The perched wetlands of the Sourlands contain many vernal pools that are critical breeding sites for threatened species of frogs and salamanders. Vernal pools are specialized habitats that hold water in winter and spring, but dry up in summer. As a result, vernal pools do not support fish that would otherwise prey on immature stages of breeding amphibians.
Preservation of the Sourlands provides a refuge where wildlife can breed and thrive and a refuge where people can enjoy the land and recharge their spirits. D&R Greenway has made the protection of this region a significant of our organization.
D&R Greenway Land Trust has articulated a vision for the protection of this irreplaceable resource and has taken effective action, accelerating the pace of land preservation and public education about the Sourlands. Five years ago, D&R Greenway was the only conservation group focusing on the Sourlands. Today, the NJDEP Green Acres Program, The Nature Conservancy, the Sourlands Regional Planning Council, and all of the region's local communities have identified the Sourlands as a priority for preservation. To date, D&R Greenway Land Trust has been a partner in the preservation of 3,500 acres of Sourlands' habitat and natural lands.
A highly successful collaboration established in 2003 between D&R Greenway and the NJ DEP Green Acres Program is resulting in a critical mass of protected lands in the Sourlands. D&R Greenway identifies priority Sourland properties and conducts the preservation discussions and negotiations with individual landowners. The State provides the financial and technical support to bring the projects to closing. D&R Greenway secures any additional funding needed from counties, municipalities and other non-profit organizations and through bargain sales.
Finally, D&R Greenway's International Sister Land Trust project with Amigos de Calakmul in Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula is helping to raise awareness about the global importance of the Sourlands. Amigos de Calakmul is working to protect the region that is the winter habitat for 65 birds that breed in the Sourlands. In October this replicable partnership will be presented as a model to approximately 1,400 regional land trusts from across the United States and international representatives at the 2005 Land Trust Rally.
D&R Greenway created innovative public, private and international partnerships and leveraged acquisition funds from multiple resources to accelerate land preservation in New Jersey's threatened Sourlands.

Where do our churches go from here?
Church and Christian community look a lot different than they did before the horrors of the coronavirus pandemc, racial trauma, and economic uncertainty revealed difficult truths about the wounds we carry. The damage caused by trauma is deep and affects every part of our lives together. At the same time, the pandemic has upended or called into question many of our traditional ministry models. For those tasked with leading congregations through this disorienting new territory, the challenges are great indeed. Yet God's people are amazingly resilient... We cannot go back to who we were before, but the church can experience new life and renewal in the wake of trauma as God's healing and hope move through us into our world.
A complimentary boxed lunch will be provided
Registration deadline is Wednesday, February 1, 2023 at 5:00 pm.
Joni Sancken is the Professor of Homiletics at United Theological Seminary.

A few weekends ago, Doug and Joe decided to host a pumpkin beer tasting at our apartment. Being the over-achievers that they are, they managed to wrangle up 10 different pumpkin beers for us to try. Allie, Allison, and Anna chipped in too!
The six of us sampled the beers one-at-a-time, individually giving each a rating of 1 to 5 with 5 being "pumpkin deliciousness all over my mouth" and 1 being "I can't drink this even though I know it's alcohol".
From most delicious to least, here are our combined results!
Part of Elysian's 12 Beers of the Apocalypse series, this pumpkin ale earned the top spot thanks to its flavor combination of pumpkin, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Would work all the way through the holiday season really.
More pumpkin forward than the Blight, Elysian's Great Pumpkin came in 2nd place. Elysian makes this ale by putting roasted pumpkin seeds in the mash and adding pumpkin to the mash, kettle, and fermenter. Think "pumpkin pie" and that's the flavor of this strong beer.
Pumpkin, nutmeg and cinnamon flavors abound in this very drinkable wheat ale. Yum!
A special edition pumpkin ale from Shipyard that we didn't think was quite as good as the regular seasonal Pumpkinhead.
Organic pumpkin puree and brown sugar were used to create this dark ale. Plus, as Doug pointed out, the label is pretty entertaining.
This beer was my favorite and Doug's second favorite so I'm sad to see it so far down on our group's list. It has chocolaty porterness with easily recognizable, but not overpowering, pumpkin flavors. A great balance of the two. Definitely recommend giving this one a shot!
Most of us were not huge fans of this amber ale, but I liked it. Made with a roasted whole pumpkin and pumpkin puree. Doug says he thought this was a little harsh but would likely age to be more mellow.
This beer got a collective "no thanks" from the group. Too sweet with its vanilla and honey overload. We still have 4 bottles of this in the fridge and Doug won't even touch it (which says a lot!).
Chocolate + stout = very little room for any pumpkin flavor. A good stout on its own but didn't pass the pumpkin beer test.
The beer left over when all the others were gone? This one. Props to Uinta for being the only oak-aged pumpkin beer we found, but really, this stuff is no good.
Disagree with our results? Have a pumpkin beer that you love? Let us know in the comments!
