Jody Watley Drops Still A Thrill, Takes Us To Paris On This Day in 1987
Released #OTD April 27, 1987
"Still A Thrill"
Written by: Jody Watley & Andre Cymone
Produced by Andre Cymone, David Z.
Billboard Charts #3 Hot R&B, #8 Dance, #56 Hot 100
The first artist or entity allowed to film a music video in the Paris Opera House, thank you to director Brian Grant.
"I wanted to showcase my power register in the vocal range, initially a concept to present to Grace Jones as a possible duet that didn't come to fruition. Andre slayed this groove and then I came up with the title, theme melody and lyrics, it was magic and an instant if not underrated funk jam. It was a hit but faltered somewhat on the pop side because it was so different from 'Looking For A N ew Love'. It was important to me at this time to showcase as well that black girls could be different, edgy, and international.I loved those Duran Duran videos shot on location.
The theme of the video was 'Paris By Night, it always makes me smile when people tell me they have made it a point to travel to Paris and go to the Opera House and take photo's on the grand entrance staircase. There is no choreography or choreographer to show me what to do, no stylist to tell me what was cool to wear. All the dancing is freestyle and created in the moment with Tyrone Proctor who I'd known from my Soul Train days as a teenager. Another fact that distinguishes me from other artists at that time – no team of dancers, high style and singular focus. I didn't want to be like anyone else and was clear of my vision of who I am."

The single hit number two for four consecutive weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 in May 1987 and spent three weeks at number-one on the Billboard R&B chart.
It is the only single between 1985 and 1990 in the United States to have spent four weeks in the runner-up position and not have reached Number One.

A music video, directed by Brian Grant was released in March 1987 to promote the song. Grant previously made videos for Whitney Houston, Peter Gabriel and Tina Turner.

Kent & Curwen Makes Debut Under David Beckham, Daniel Kearns
The collection will launch exclusively with Mr Porter in November before a 2017 rollout.
By Samantha Conti on September 16, 2016
View Gallery	— 6	Photos
LONDON — The new-generation Kent & Curwen collection will make its retail debut in November and no one is more enthusiastic than David Beckham, who's not only invested the brand but is more than happy to front it too.
"Because I'm part owner, we were trying to think how not to put me in the campaign — it was something we discussed. But I do feel very passionate about it and have been very involved from Day One, so the ad campaign is exciting for me," said Beckham, whose company Seven Global has a business partnership with the Trinity Group-owned Kent & Curwen.
Although the campaign has yet to be shot, the collection will make its debut in November exclusively on the Mr Porter web site. Later that month, it will be sold on the Kent & Curwen site, with a full wholesale rollout set for early next year.
The British brand was founded in 1926 and has its roots in the manufacture of sports uniforms for clubs, colleges and universities. Kent & Curwen pioneered the cricket sweater and its archives are packed with regatta jackets, old Eton caps, V-neck knits and sturdy topcoats.
The brand has evolved into a traditional men's sportswear collection with a $100 million business based mostly in the Far East. With new investment from Trinity Group — and Beckham's support and inspiration — it's aiming to put a younger, laid-back spin on the archive's sporty classics and speak to a wider audience.
The latest, seasonless collection has been designed by new creative director Daniel Kearns — a veteran of Louis Vuitton, Alexander McQueen and Façonnable — with the company's sporty DNA as well as Beckham's style and aesthetic in mind.
It's packed with laid-back styles that feel like heirlooms from one very cool older brother or father — someone who rowed at Cambridge, batted for Eton or stalked deer with his pals.
Kearns has done some clever distressing and staining of garments, giving them a vintage feel and an appealing, unpolished preppiness. During an interview alongside Beckham, Kearns said his aim was to embrace Kent & Curwen's British sporting heritage and spin it into a collection for today — lighter, slimmer, softer and easier.
"We want to answer to an e-commerce, global, social media generation that blends brands and price points, not someone who's looking for the latest fashion fix," said Kearns.
"This should be affordable, aspirational clothing. I think the idea of a new generation lifestyle brand is important — a British one that the new generation can feel akin to. That's really something we want to re-embrace because so much of the heritage going into this makes sense in terms of the idea of lifestyle, from sportswear to tailoring."
The collection includes outerwear, such as a military greatcoat done either in wool or unlined cotton; a heavy cotton lumberjack jacket with a shearling collar, and piles of blazers in wool or cotton, some with a subtle regatta stripe sewn on the inside of the lapels.
Rugby shirts with skinny stripes and the brand's triple-lion logo have faded, slightly yellowed collars — as if they have been in constant use since, maybe, the Sixties — while white T-shirts, including the one Beckham is wearing during the interview, are slightly distressed around the neck, as if they'd gone through many a washing cycle.
The effect is charming, not cheap.
Prices range from 95 pounds, or $125, for a long-sleeve Henley shirt to 1,200 pounds, or $1,585, for the most expensive outerwear.
Beckham said some of his favorite pieces include the rugby shirts and the sweaters with the English rose logo — it's discreet and often appears around the bottom hem of tops — and pointed to an off-white rugby shirt hanging in a showroom Savile Row.
"That underneath a tailored overcoat would look so cool. It works," he said, adding that he is adamant the collection should not be about age.
"It's the casual elegance which is important for the brand and the line. This could be for a young generation — I took some pieces home the other day and Brooklyn [his son] saw them and said, 'Where are these from? I want to wear them!'
"He's 17 years old. I'm 41. There's no age group we're trying to hit. Any younger or older guy who wants to feel elegant is our target. The inspiration as well has come from my taste, but also from the people I'm around. I have a lot of friends, and I think a lot of the influence comes from my biker friends, my sporting friends, my older generation of friends who maybe go to the country to go shooting," said Beckham.
Asked whether the family's dinner conversation now revolves around clothing, what with his wife Victoria Beckham's fashion collections and his collaborations — past and present — with Adidas, Belstaff, Hennes & Mauritz (his latest advertising campaign with Kevin Hart was teased Thursday) and Giorgio Armani, the global sports icon said not too much.
"Victoria talks me through her collection and I talk her through what we're doing as well, but the lucky thing is that I've been able to learn from Victoria with her work ethic," said Beckham.
"Obviously this is a totally different script to what she does because we have an established brand and Victoria started from scratch. My history in the fashion business has been very different as well. I've been very lucky over the years to have worked with Adidas, with Belstaff and H&M. I've also worked with Mr. Armani with underwear too. Seeing the way the fashion world works, I have a lot of ideas and I know where I want to take a business and that's what I hope to achieve."
Kent & Curwen is Beckham's only apparel line. He and his longtime friend and business associate Simon Fuller are 50-50 partners in Seven Global, a venture with Global Brands Group Holding Ltd., a sister company of Trinity. Last year, Seven Global signed a five-year licensing agreement with Kent & Curwen.
He said his goal for the brand is to build, build, build and even expand more in Asia, where Kent & Curwen already has more than 100 stores, and he has a solid fan base. Although it's still early days, Beckham said a flagship store is on the cards.
"It's a huge business in Asia, and we want to continue to keep that and raise it to another level. We want to keep what we have in Asia strong, but also establish the roots here where Kent & Curwen first started. That's important for us," said Beckham.

BUE halts classes as students protest to sack university president
Reem Gehad , Monday 4 Mar 2013
Students begin a sit-in seeking to sack the administration and president at the British University in Egypt; Admin suspends all 'educational activity'

Classes have been suspended for a week at British University in Egypt (BUE) after students staged protests calling on the university's president and its general secretary to leave their posts.
While BUE students received emails informing them of the decision, a copy of a document signed by university president Ahmed Hamza circulated on Twitter late Sunday.
"After consulting with members of the university council about the violent incidents caused by several students and the damages they have led to, the university's president has decided to halt all educational activity for a week," the statement reads.
Students started a sit-in at the university's administration building Saturday and surrounded the president's office, preventing him from entering. They protested the "commercialisation of education" of their privately-owned university.
"We believe that the university's main aim is profit," Omar El-Alfy, BUE's student union president, said flatly.
"The university has been manipulating students' exam results to disqualify more students from the scholarship programme, thus forcing more to pay the fees," he claims.
"We also believe that the facilities offered by the university, whether it be class space or bus service, to students on campus are not proportionate to the amount of fees they pay," El-Alfy added.
Annual BUE tuition and fees range from LE38,000 - 45,000,depending on the department of study, not including books. Bus fees, educational support and administrative service fees are optional but often necessary expenses.
Although the university's president agreed to cancel a new 500 sterling pound fee for certain engineering departments and promised that midterm exam papers will be re-marked, students were not content and demanded the administrators leave their posts.
"We were often promised that such issues would be resolved, but this was never fulfilled," El-Alfy charges.
According to El-Alfy, the university's general secretary left his position Sunday.
"Sami El-Masry gave the student union a signed handwritten document of his resignation," El-Alfy said.
The issue is yet to be resolved on campus, however.
In his statement, Hamza said that the university "has started an investigation into students [accused of causing violent action] and will take appropriate disciplinary action with those proven to be guilty."
"BUE has also notified Egyptian police and the general prosecution of the events and damages so they can take appropriate legal action," it added. "This stems from the university's keenness on continuing studies in an atmosphere of stability."
BUE was founded in 2005 as a private university in partnership with Loughborough University in the United Kingdom.
Similar protests took place at the American University in Cairo (AUC) and the German University in Cairo (GUC) in September.
AUC students closed down the campus for over a week, forcing the administration to suspend all activity. After negotiations, the administration agreed to reduce future tuition increases from 7 percent to about 2 percent until 2016.

Many visual languages based on Euler diagrams have emerged for expressing relationships between sets. The expressive power of these languages varies, but the majority can only express statements involving unary relations and, sometimes, equality. We present a new visual language called Visual First Order Logic (VFOL) that was developed from work on constraint diagrams which are designed for software specification. VFOL is likely to be useful for software specification, because it is similar to constraint diagrams, and may also fit into a Z-like framework. We show that for every First Order Predicate Logic (FOPL) formula there exists a semantically equivalent VFOL diagram. The translation we give from FOPL to VFOL is natural and, as such, VFOL could also be used to teach FOPL, for example.

Your next package could be delivered by a robot dog.
German automative firm Continental unveiled a concept delivery system at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas that imagines four-legged robot dogs hopping out of driverless delivery vans to ferry packages straight to your doorstep.
Continental partnered with robotics company ANYbotics, known for its quadrupedal robots that can open doors and ride elevators, to develop the concept.
Continental designed a robo-taxi specifically for the delivery dogs to ride around in.
Called the 'CUbE,' it's a pod-shaped autonomous van that can carry one or multiple delivery robots at a time.
Once the van arrives at its destination, it will send out a robot dog through the back door of the car to drop the package off at the recipient's doorstep.


Whenever J and I make a meal, you can bet that, in most cases, at least four of the five ingredients above are featured in some way or another. But in one of our newest refrigerator staples, they are the stars.
Helloooo, soffritto, you sweet, jammy medley.
We had our first encounter with soffritto over the holidays last year, following the recipe from Thomas Keller's "Ad Hoc at Home" cookbook in the ever-engaging "lifesavers" section. His is a simple recipe, really: Finely dice onions (3 cups) and combine in a large pan with olive oil (1 cup, though I sometimes us a bit more so there is more to save) and a bit of salt. Bring the oil just to a boil, then reduce the heat and place the pan on a heat diffuser. Simmer for 2 1/2 hours.
Cue the tomatoes. Keller gives instructions for halving one pound plum tomatoes lengthwise, and grating the flesh on a box grater until only the skin is left in your hand. I did this once. But in December in the Northwest, plum tomatoes are pretty anemic. And while the process of hand-grating tomatoes is not difficult, I feel it's not entirely necessary when a box of good-quality Italian crushed tomatoes is a fine shortcut. Add the tomatoes (1 cup or so) to the onion/olive oil stew, give a stir and simmer for another 2 1/2 hours. Low, slow.
Remove the pan from the heat, add one or two (Two! No, three!) minced garlic cloves and let the mixture cool on the stove. Use a fine-mesh sieve to drain off the extra olive oil, reserving it for the next batch of soffritto (Keller's advice), or for sauteeing vegetables (our advice). Either way, refrigerate the oil, refrigerate the soffritto. Enjoy.
How to enjoy? I eat my fair share of quesadillas, and this mellow-sweet, onion-y condiment is a luxurious topping. It's also delicious on frittata, fish or pasta.
I would put some on my omelette. with melted cheese maybe. mmmmm. pass the soffrito please.
Yup, would be awesome. Oooh, oops. Drooled a little thinking about it.
All the ingredients that I love. I'll do it tomorrow. I can think of 100's of ways to use soffritto. Thanks.

Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.) said WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange ought to be in "an orange jumpsuit" for existence following a data unload that found out CIA intelligence hacking techniques.

Sasse, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, issued a declaration Thursday slamming Assange as a crook and Kremlin best friend.
"Julian Assange ought to spend the relaxation of his existence sporting an orange jumpsuit. He's an enemy of the Yankee people and an ally of Vladimir Putin," Sasse said.

"Mr. Assange has committed his life's work to endangering innocent lives, abetting despots, and stoking a crisis of self-assurance in the West."
Sasse's statement is available in response to a Thursday press convention in which Assange promised to present technology agencies get right of entry to the records it has about the CIA's hacking tools.
The press convention came days after Wikileaks published a large trove of files purportedly relating the CIA's hacking packages — the primary of many files dumps the website says it has come at the intelligence organization.
Assange made his feedback at the Embassy of Ecuador in London, wherein he's been since he sought asylum in 2012.
Assange stated the shared information will allow tech corporations to "increase fixes" before his enterprise releases the whole info of how the CIA was hacking a couple of devices. He says that statistics are not yet available because he doesn't want the hacking strategies to be used towards "news hounds and people of the sector."
In the meantime, important tech agencies together with Apple, Google, and Samsung have the "extraordinary get admission to" to the CIA hacking techniques, Assange said.
He additionally claimed this leak induced the CIA to lose "manipulate of its whole cyber guns arsenal."
"This is a historic act of devastating incompetence to have created such an arsenal and saved it multi functional place and now not secured it," Assange brought.
Tech groups are trying to discover their software program's protection weak points as a result of the leaked documents, while also calling on CIA to launch in additional information, in line with a Reuters file.
Pleasant Desire for You and Me – Palin, Tea and the GOP
Tea Party-backed Christine O'Donnell's astonishing win in Delaware combined with others across the country has strengthened conservative hopes of busting the liberal stronghold on both the Congress and the Senate in November.
US Senators List
Us wants back into "government of, by and for the humans." Outcomes from the modern wave of primaries are high-quality indicators that People will not be silenced by means of a liberal electricity structure that force feeds them like squirming children who won't consume their peas. That may be no wonder to the six-packs however the electricity of the emergent Tea Party and the stable effect of Sarah Palin to tip a race has drawn the attention of the state.
Contrary to the Dem's announcement that there's a rift between the Tea Party and the GOP, Senate Minority Chief Mitch McConnell (R) and Indiana's 0.33 ranking GOP guy Mike Pence, have made it clear that O'Donnell will get a complete guide and maximum contributions from the Republicans.
Several warnings ought to accompany the current victories of each the Tea Celebration and the GOP. Us is looking ahead to the two parties to friend up for both mid phrases and the 2012 extravaganza for the sake of a nation that has recently taken an incorrect turn. ought to the Tea Birthday party emerge as a caucused 0.33 Party before 2012, it would be like handing the Dem's, liberals and Barack Obama a positive win. We can handiest desire that there is no one in either Birthday celebration that has no longer heard of, nor completely is familiar with that theorem, born of common sense or our latest records that we now call, "The Ross Perot Impact."
Although the term "divide and triumph over" is usually associated with the science of PC algorithms it isn't a time period unknown to the Democrats. Virtually suggesting that there may be a divide among the Tea Birthday celebration and the GOP does not make it true but the power of motion and a play on perceptions can plant a seed that might bring about a panic. If either Party feels threatened via the have an impact on of the opposite they will reconnoiter, near ranks and divide. For the state's sake, this must now not take place.
A few journalist will chance being redundant to make a point, for me being redundant is a part and parcel of my calling and the purpose of my existence. Giving the subsequent fair caution was triggered through a passing commentary made with the aid of Dick Morris on the Hannity display on the nighttime of September 15, 2010. Morris turned into filmed in the Vatican and became interviewed by way of Hannity who turned into looking for his reaction to the night time of primaries but especially the effective result of the race in Delaware. Morris stated that due to the fact abortion and the homosexual agenda were not "hot button subjects" on this election that the Tea Party and the GOP have a higher hazard of appealing to the electorate on the winning troubles of the financial system, jobs, and taxes.
Morris becomes accurate about the problems of abortion and the gay schedule however they can not nor will they ever be separated from our economic welfare and our destiny in overall. I am now not naïve, I recognize that the maximum intensely conservative politicos in us won't accept as true within what I am saying however that takes not anything from it.
Individuals who concept the homosexual agenda turned into just a motion to benefit extra social acceptance of gays have visible of late that the frenzy is going manner beyond that simple intention. It has leached downward in tries to persuade the attitude of youngsters so young they have hardly begun to stroll. It has reached upwards within the social strata to threaten the God given union of marriage among one guy and one girl. I can't fill an op-ed with dozens of scriptural references to make a point, however, I will effectively guarantee my readers that many verses and passages of write genuinely say that God will no longer turn a blind eye to these subjects.
The scourge of abortion may be pushed to the back burner at the same time as hot political topics just like the financial system and taxes are introduced to the front, however, culpability will now not be disregarded via popularity. technology can not deliver us terminology that may supplant human instinct, commonplace decency, and scriptural caution: we all know a "fetus" is a person.
This country isn't an employer or a set of entrepreneurial interests but is a dwelling collective of moral creatures which could add to life or deny lifestyles by means of any and all method. We try for excellence in science and medication with the aim of preserving life. We train ethics, social obligation and civics with the good of mankind always in the leading edge. Are we able to explicit our views of politics and statesmanship aside from it main to "existence liberty and the pursuit of happiness?" in which do liberty and the pursuit of happiness come into play for the ones who have been denied the right to "existence?"
List of Lifestyles
All over again I can carry out the essence of my calling and convictions by using reiterating this unmarried factor. A state's morality and its economy are continually inextricably related. They're the pony and carriage of Gods plan for all societies. You cannot deny the existence and presume that you may continually have a lot of correct and lots with a bank account to remedy the opportunity of some rainy days.
I percentage in the current conservative victories across the state but I must warn that economics isn't all there may be to our countrywide lifestyles. The gay agenda and abortion may no longer be warm button topics but They may be the buttons that if now not treated will lead to an economic downturn that no quantity of conservatism in politics may be able to rectify.

No injustice is unattainable: HKCTU sorrowfully mourn the death of Mr. Chan Kam-hong
We sorrowfully mourn the death of our comrade-in-arms, Mr. Chan Kam-hong, who passed away of illness on the night of 5 May, 2019. He was 60.
Chan is a long-term comrade of the Hong Kong Confederation of Trade Unions (HKCTU) in the independent labour movement. For decades, Chan provided important support to many of our affiliates' missions to improve occupational health and safety in various industries. The death of Chan is a profound and irreplaceable loss to the movement.
Chan Kam-hong joined the Christian Industrial Committee in 1983 and started as a volunteer in the Industrial Injury Unit. He then served as the chief executive of the Association for the Rights of Industrial Accident Victims (ARIAV) for the past 36 years. Unreservedly adhered to the values of independent labour movement, Chan dedicated his entire life to supporting injured workers and their families, seeking justice for the underprivileged of society. He is truly a pioneer of the independent labor movement in Hong Kong.
Whenever terrible occupational accidents took place, Mr. Chan and his colleagues were always there to provide support for the families of the deceased, and ran everywhere for those who lost their lives innocently. Whenever contractors disregarded occupational safety, Chan was always the first to rebuke unscrupulous bosses of putting profits over human lives. Throughout his life, Chan held the conviction of "no justice is unattainable" and always did his best, regardless of obstacles and adversities, to fight for the dignity of workers. Although his is no longer with us, his spirit will surely remain and continue to shine.
In recent years, the Government has launched a number of large-scale infrastructure projects that caused repeated industrial accidents. Chan was especially enraged at the government and developers' disregard of human lives. He continued to lash at the lack of government supervision, the courts' lenient on law offending employers, and the inadequacy of occupational health and safety related legislations. Every year, under the leadership of Chan, the ARIAV would launch a large-scale activity on the International Commemoration Day for Dead and Injured Workers on April 28 to organize injured workers and their families to demand the government to improve ineffectual policies. Regrettably, Chan Kam-hong failed to witness the government's efforts to improve occupational health and safety of workers in his lifetime. We will certainly strive to inherit Mr. Chan's legacy and continue to fight tirelessly for the cause of workers' lives.
Although Chan Kam-hong has left us, the spirit he left behind will last forever in the hearts of each of us. The HKCTU hereby expresses its deepest respect to Mr. Chan and also expresses deep condolences to his family, colleagues, and friends.

»The Eye in the Laboratory« investigates the transfer of knowledge between the human sciences and humanities in light of investigations to conceptualize vision. It examines the historical relations between theories of vision, analyzing experimental knowledge of the eye and visual practices, as well as theories of perception in both laboratory praxis and art. Notable examples will be drawn from the time period of 1750–1950, serving to elucidate the »long term« perspective (longue durée) as well as the historicity of research in perception and the variability of the human organ. The objective of the project is the critical historicisation of the contemporary conjuncture of neuronal aesthetics.

Carole Baskin of 'Tiger King' says claims her ex-husband is alive are old news
by: Lee Hedgepeth
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) – Carole Baskin of Tampa's Big Cat Rescue has weighed in on renewed press coverage of claims that her former husband is "alive and well" in Costa Rica.
Baskin's comments to Nexstar's CBS 42 came after a New York Post article rehashing claims about the whereabouts of her ex-husband, Jack Don Lewis, who went missing from the family home in 1997.
"Carole Baskin says 'dead' husband was found alive – but no one noticed," the tabloid reported Wednesday. The story quickly went viral on social media, with Carole Baskin herself quickly trending on Twitter.
When contacted about the resurfaced story, Baskin said the information is old news.
"This aired back in Nov. 2021 and I've mentioned it in the more than 60 interviews I've done since then, where reporters asked about Don, so I'm surprised everyone in the press is acting like they aren't aware of it," Baskin said.
Arrests made in 11-year-old 'Baby Jane Doe' case in east Alabama
At one point in Netflix's "Tiger King 2," a document purportedly produced by the Department of Homeland Security showed information related to Lewis' case. The document, which could not be authenticated by CBS 42, claims that investigators found Lewis "alive and well" in Costa Rica.
The Department of Homeland Security has not yet responded to requests for comment on the case, but the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office still listed Lewis as a "missing endangered adult" as of publication time.
Baskin said the renewed press coverage may be because "Tiger King 2" didn't receive the initial attention its previous installment had garnered.
"I guess Tiger King 2 wasn't as popular as the first one that came out just as we all went into lockdown," she said.
Asked whether she had anything she'd wish to say to her former husband, Baskin kept it short and clear.
"No," she wrote plainly.
"For the cats," Baskin signed her response – then, below her signature, a quote attributed to Franklin D. Roosevelt: "I ask you to judge me by the enemies I have made."

'Now is the time for action,; Paulson said,
Paulson: 'Threat to our nation's future'
By ELIAS GROLL
Former Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson, calling mounting debt "the single greatest threat to our nation's future," said Friday that the ceiling must be raised.
"And the sense of urgency is clear – failing to raise the debt ceiling would do irreparable harm to our credit standing, would undermine our ability to lead on global economic issues and would damage our economy," Paulson said in a statement after a breakfast meeting with Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner.
Paulson, head of the Treasury under President George W. Bush, said he supports a deal to raise the legal borrowing limit that includes spending reductions, along with entitlement and tax "reform."
Declaring "now is the time for action," Paulson said, "Real reform that puts us on a sustainable fiscal path is critical to U.S. economic competitiveness. This is not an easy task, and will involve tough decisions on all sides. I am confident that this administration and Congressional leaders in both parties are working in good faith toward a solution."
Paulson, who was chief executive at Goldman Sachs before joining the Bush administration, is often a target of tea party anti-deficit activists for his role as main architect of the 2008 TARP bank bailout plan.


I don't know about you, but since the television show Amazing Race came out, I was glued to the DVR recordings with my oldest son. We couldn't wait to sit down together and watch the show to see the filmmakers give us a front row seat to the world. We have watched many an episode about these people who team up and meet in various places throughout the world and perform some super human feats. Honestly, I think it all looks like a lot of fun, yet with the difficult tasks, I am not sure how we would perform in the challenges. I have also noticed that the interpersonal relationships between the two people on the team is crucial to the success of the thrill seekers on the show.
So let's say you wanted to apply to the Amazing Race, but you really didn't want to have to step up to the challenge of being on television and all that goes along with that.
Well, I have I got something for you?
I heard about this company called Competitours a couple of years ago. It was created by none other than one of the most famous frequent flyer extraordinare in the world: Steve Belkin! He thought up this crazy idea to start a company where the teams compete against each other in unknown places throughout the world after he took a scavenger hunt with his wife. But it wasn't just any old scavenger hunt, it was a 23 day, 4 continent, 10 country Global Scavenger Hunt!
So let me tell you a little bit about Competitours.
Competitours transforms scavenger hunts into amazing vacations, where you will discover Europe through a daily dose of exciting challenges. So here is how it works: There are 12 teams, 11 days of surprise challenges, 7-8 mystery destinations across Western Europe, oh and the kicker – there is up to $7200 in prize money for the top 3 teams! And every team has fighting chance to win. So what are these challenges? All the teams will participate in the same challenge and there are a few days where there is a 'grab-bag' challenge, whereby teams can choose from a menu of options! I have heard of everything from chocolate wars in Brussels to a dance off in Sorrento. These challenges are customized to unique locations and are things that almost anyone can perform.
You will have no idea where you are going until you get there! From Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland and Austria, all western European destination are a possibility. Using the train system and low cost airlines, you explore a mix of cites, villages and everything in between. Thankfully, there is free time on several afternoons or evening for your own personal shopping, dining and exploration.
Check out their website for dates and pricing of this extra-ordinary adventure. I know you will have a blast!
Disclosure: This post was a paid sponsorship of Competitours. The amazing time one would have on this trip though is completely up to the participant. I know I would love to go!

A University of Connecticut research team harvest kelp near the Thimble Islands in Branford, CT.
Ribbed mussels in Long Island Sound.
Nutrient Bioextraction combines growing and harvesting shellfish and seaweed for the purpose of removing nitrogen and other nutrients from coastal waters. Nutrient bioextraction can also provide economic benefits. Since 2009, the Long Island Sound Study has promoted efforts to bring nutrient bioextraction to Long Island Sound. In 2018, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and NEIWPCC with support from LISS hired a bioextraction coordinator to implement a Bioextraction Initiative.
Why is Nutrient Bioextraction Being Considered for Long Island Sound?
Reducing nutrient inputs is a priority for many estuary programs in the United States, including Long Island Sound, Chesapeake Bay, and the Gulf of Mexico. By reducing nutrients in coastal waters, states and federal agencies hope to reduce widespread and recurring problems with algal blooms, loss of seagrass, and hypoxia (low dissolved oxygen). Nutrient bioextraction can complement existing programs (such as using advanced treatment methods to remove nitrogen from wastewater treatment plant sewage discharges into the Sound). It is the only method available to remove nitrogen after it has entered the Sound.
What is Being Done to Advance Bioextraction in Long Island Sound and the East Coast?
Practical Government and Private Sector Applications of Bioextraction. Learn about nutrient bioextraction projects taking place in Long Island Sound and elsewhere along the East Coast. See examples.
Ribbed Mussel Pilot Study. Learn about the pilot program completed off of Hunts Point in the South Bronx (near the western Narrows of Long Island Sound) to test the effectiveness of ribbed mussels and seaweed in removing nitrogen from the local environment. See mussel study project summary.
Ecosystem Services Assessment of Bioextraction in Long Island Sound. This research project used ecological, economic, and other models to show that oyster aquaculture in Long Island Sound compared favorably to existing nutrient reduction methods, in terms of both the cost and effectiveness of nitrogen removal. Oyster aquaculture has the added benefit of providing a sustainable source of local seafood. See research project summary.
Seaweed Pilot Studies. Learn about the pilot program completed off of Hunts Point in the South Bronx and two sites in Connecticut to test the effectiveness of seaweed in removing nitrogen from the local environment. See seaweed study project summaries.
2009 Bioextraction Workshop. In 2009, the Long Island Sound Study held a workshop to learn more about topics related to nutrient bioextraction from experts around the world and to discuss opportunities for nutrient bioextraction in Long Island Sound. See bioextraction workshop.
What is the Nutrient Bioextraction Initiative?
Creating an interconnected workgroup of professionals and stakeholders that will work towards advancing bioextraction.
The Nutrient Bioextraction Initiative is a project of the New England Interstate Water Pollution Control Commission, in collaboration with the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation and the Long Island Regional Planning Council with funding from the EPA's Long Island Sound Study program.
What is the Bioextraction Workgroup?
The Bioextraction Advisory Committee (BAC) is a small network of interdisciplinary researchers and experts in nutrient bioextraction, seafood safety, nutrient resource management, and shellfish and seaweed aquaculture working in federal, state, and local government agencies; academic institutions; non-profit organizations; and the aquaculture industry. The BAC stays up-to-date on the work on the Bioextraction Initiative through regular webinars and provides guidance and recommendations on projects in order to produce sound science that ultimately will be used to inform management decisions.

According to today's New York Times, there have been 465 cases of measles reported in the United States since the start of 2019, "with 78 new cases in the last week alone."1 Responding to the surge of this highly infectious disease, Mayor Bill d Blasio said that the city "would issue violations and possibly fines" for those who refused to receive the measles vaccine. The report, along with others from the Center for Disease Control, once again focuses the public's attention on the issues of mandatory vaccinations, individual freedom, and how to protect the health of the public.
Today, even though there is a vaccine to prevent measles, many people, unaware of how deadly measles can be, or misinformed about the side effects of the vaccine, refuse to have their children vaccinated, considering the disease to be a minor childhood illness.4 A few years ago, after a similar outbreak of measles in California, Drs. Lusk and Lewenson and I decided to write about the issue from an historical perspective, and published that manuscript in Nursing Outlook. Then and now, however, I wonder if we are reaching the right audience, the general public as well as a wide audience of practicing nurses. Can knowing history make a difference? Should we, as an organization, write a position statement about the need for vaccination? How can we make our history relevant to today? I welcome your thoughts and reactions – and perhaps, volunteers to draft a position statement for our webpage.

This group was formed to pass the 2018 bipartisan legislation, "U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps Service Recognition Act." It was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives as HR7258 and in the U.S. Senate as Senate Bill 3729. There is no financial or VA benefits. These women of the Greatest Generation only request to be honored as Veterans of WWII with an American flag and a gravesite plaque forever marking their proud service to our country during wartime in the United States Cadet Nurse Corps.
Action Needed: Be a "Friend" of the U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps WWII.
How: Simply let your U.S. Senators and House Representatives know that passing this new bill is important to you by going to their website and clicking on the button.


Being a leader is both an art and a science. It takes great skill and development to be able to lead and effectively manage your team. While it takes time and a concerted effort to be a great leader, there are simple changes you can make to your approach that can make the biggest difference. Researchers for many companies have conducted extensive studies to figure out what the most effective leadership strategies look like. Based on their research, they have come to discover three simple changes that can improve your leadership style.
One fascinating strategy that leaders at Facebook use starts with making a critical mentality shift. So, the managers at Facebook don't "lead" their teams, they "support" them instead. This one-word shift from lead to support can completely alter how you view your role as a leader and change how you approach your interactions with your team. Sometimes, the smallest changes can make the biggest impact even if it is simply changing one word.
Recent studies showed that about 85 percent of employees withhold critical feedback from their bosses. Most of the time, if workers feel like they will get in trouble by coming to you with an issue, they won't do it. Without open and transparent communication, there will be little room for innovation, collaboration, and engagement with your employees. Through their research, Google discovered the concept of "psychological safety" which is important for leaders to focus on creating. This means the way you operate ensures people feel safe coming to you with problems, challenges, and improvements. Two ways to create this psychological safety is by encouraging and welcoming escalation and concerns by showing your appreciation when it happens. The second is by making sure everyone gets the chance to speak during team meetings.
As mentioned previously, your job isn't to lead your team, but rather to support them. This means you want to remove any obstacles and one of the biggest obstacles you can remove is team members holding themselves back. So, in the last point, we mentioned ensuring that everyone in the meeting gets the chance to speak and there are a few ways to make that a reality. First, make a list of everyone who is attending. Then, place a checkmark next to people's names when they do speak. As you begin to notice the same people who talk consistently, try to engage the quieter team members and ask for their input. You don't want to be too pushy as you want to make sure everyone still feels comfortable, but you want to make sure that everyone and their opinions feel valued and wanted.

Drawing the exhibition – Bodies of Art
Exhibitions, pencils
drawing the exhibition, graphite, National Gallery of Australia, sculpture, watercolor, watercolour
Bodies of Art: Human form from the national collection, is currently on display in the downstairs sculpture rooms of the National Gallery of Australia. I spent the morning there quietly sketching away. The exhibition is a stimulating mix of sculpture, paintings, photography and video works which provided me with lots of interesting compositions to work on.
My first sketch was a grouping of stone sculptures, Torso, 1948 by Rosemary Madigan and Number 24, Harry Boyd by Robert Klippel and a third piece, an Anthropomorphic monument [gowe nio niha], (19th century or earlier) from the island of Nias in Indonesia. I was instantly drawn to the sandstone used in the two Australian works. The deep gougemarks on the Klippel sculpture acted like lines drawn across the surface. In contrast the smoother texture of Madigan's work supported the subtlety of her torso's carved planes.
Left to Right, Torso; Anthropomorphic Figure; Number 24, Harry Boyd, graphite with added watercolour
Behind me was an interesting juxtaposition of a hanging work by Giulio Paolini, Aria (Air), 1983 and beyond that, Triptych, 1970, by Francis Bacon.
Paolini's work consists of two photographs of a renaissance sculpture sandwiched between perspex and hang from a steel cable. The work slowly gyrates beneath the high gallery ceiling, while underneath lies a piece of shattered glass. Behind it hangs Bacon's equally fractured figures, curiously feeling much more grounded and solid than Paolini's figure does.
Giulio Paolini, Aria (Air), 1983 and Francis Bacon, Triptych, 1970, pencil with added watercolour
While I drawing the partial elements of the Bacon triptych into this sketch, I became quite intrigued by the figures in the work's central panel. After a restorative cup of coffee and some biscuits in the Member's Lounge I returned to my final sketch of the day, the detail of the central panel.
There is certainly scope for more drawing here, so I will plan to make it back there soon.
All the sketching was done in the gallery and the watercolour was added afterwards.

Sketching with Rodin
Cambodian dancers, drawing the exhibition, fude nib, musee rodin paris, pen and ink, sculpture, urban sketchers paris, urbansketchers
I had the pleasure of meeting up with members of Urban Sketchers Paris last weekend, both days actually (but that's another post). On Sunday we went sketching at the Musée Rodin in Varenne.
There was so much to see and sketch at the Musée Rodin, that I stayed for the whole day.
Sketching in Room 14 at the Musee Rodin, that's a partially made model, not just my wonky drawing.
I was particularly inspired by the various studies and preparatory works for Rodin's sculptures. I also enjoyed seeing Rodin's collection of classical sculpture fragments. The wall of toes and feet was my favourite.
Room 17 with the collection of classical toes
I then moved to the next room along to draw these two torsos. One a 'Muse' and the other a model for 'Polyphemos'. The pose for Polyphemus was extraordinary, the right knee lifted almost up to the face. Although, having since looked at more finished versions of this sculpture online, I can see that the figure is kneeling and leaning over, so the pose is less strange than it appears with they way this model is mounted.
Muse, 1907, Room 18 of the Musee Rodin

Mid-afternoon there was a special performance by Cambodian dancers, in the museum gardens, which was designed to allow sketchers to draw the dancers in tradtional dance poses. Unfortunately for the dancers the beautiful weather of the previous week had been supplanted by a gloomy day of 14 ° C. Wearing only their stunning traditional costumes designed for hot and humid Cambodia, the dancers were literally turning blue from the cold. I can only say that we truly appreciated their efforts to perform under such trying circumstances.

Drawing the exhibition, Rodel Tapaya
manananggal, National Gallery of Australia, Philippines, Rodel Tapaya, sculpture
Earlier this year we went to a talk at the National Gallery of Australia by Philippine artist Rodel Tapaya. His work is an exuberant mix of the contemporary, political and the mythic.
Modern Manananggals, 2013, wood, brass, silver, fibreglass, epoxy and oil paint
The sculptural work I sketched, above, of suspended figures holding suitcases comments on the impact on the children of parents forced to work overseas. He uses the image of the manananggal, the Philippines equivalent of the vampire. These creatures leave the lower half of their body behind, as they fly off nightly to drink the blood of pregnant women. The contention of this work is that Philippino parents earn an income by leaving their own children behind to work as carers for other people's children.

Drawing the exhibitions, Singapore
art, Dora Gordine, Georgette Chen, Museum of Asian Civilization, National Gallery of Singapore, sculpture, Singapore, travel
I only had limited opportunity to sketch while I was in Singapore in May. Travelling with non-drawers meant that sketching was more of a challenge.
We did make it to the National Gallery of Singapore which is interesting not only for the art it contains, but also for its new architectural structure that joins and transforms two historic buildings, the former Supreme Court and City Hall.
The joy for me is finding artists whose work I haven't seen before. I'm a bit of a modernist so it's no big surprise that Dora Gordine's sculptures caught my eye. Because the gallery had quite a number of Gordine's sculptures I assumed there must be a strong link to Singapore. However I haven't been able to find a link other than that she was commissioned to make sculptures for the Singapore City Hall in 1935. Gordine worked mainly in London. The work below was made in 1949.
Serene Jade, Dora Gordine, 1949, Bronze
I can't leave the NGS without mentioning the paintings of Georgette Chen. This striking self portrait was but one of her works in the collection.
Self Portrait, Georgette Chen
Not all the artwork in the city is in the galleries. I saw several statues by the sculptor Fernando Botero, whose work often exaggerates it's subject, in this case a bird.
Fernando Botero's The Bird, (view from the rear)
At the Museum of Asian Civilizations I saw the exhibition Joseon Korea, which was full of engaging and colourful works. This wooden sculpture was in the section on religious practice.

The Empress Place building (1867), which houses the main part of the museum, was originally government offices. Now it houses a range of historic exhibitions which I only managed to fly around quickly in the time I had. However I did manage a sketch of this contemporary work by Eng Tow inspired by grains of rice. The grains are several metres in length and were hung suspended in the gallery space.

Drawing the exhibition -Robert Hannaford
Art Gallery of South Australia, drawing the exhibition, portraits, portraiture, Robert Hannaford, sculpture
On a visit to Adelaide a week ago we saw the retrospective of the work of Robert Hannaford, a South Australian portraitist, at the Art Gallery of South Australia. It was fascinating to see what 50 years of work looked like, particularly the many self portraits Hannaford has made over that time. I also enjoyed seeing that he made the type of quick sketches in coffee shops and bars that many of us make, which are worthwhile in themselves.
What did surprise me were two sculptures that were included in the show. His understanding of the figure in space I found to be even more compelling than his painted portraits. As I was with other people opportunities for sketching were limited. I sketched two versions of his bronze sculpture 'Handstand'.
Rather wonky, but I couldn't resist the dramatic shadow being cast by the left leg over the torso of the sculpture
You can find more of his work at his website.

Sunday in Sichuan Province
Buddha, Leshan, location sketch, pen and ink, sculpture
What could be more appropriate activity for a Sunday than to take a drive in the country. Our group drove out of Chengdu at about 9 in the morning, while most of the local population was still asleep. Our destination was Leshan, the 12th largest city in the province (3 million people), which is home to a famous sculpture of the Buddha. The sculpture sits above the confluence of three rivers and was built with the purpose of seeking the Buddha's influence to stop the capsizing of small boats (well this was in 713 AD). The best views are from the water so we took to a boat and cruised downstream to see the statue.
Given that the sculpture is 71 metres tall the view, even from the water is quite foreshortened.
After a great lunch of local noodles we drove to Huang Long Shi village (Yellow Dragon River), a popular tourist destination for Chengdu residents. The largely reconstructed main street runs either side of a small stream. Shops selling food and totally pointless souvenirs abound. We sat down in one of the tea houses for a spot of people watching. To one side we could also see some of the carved stone frogs that decorated the stream bed.
Soon it was time to head back to town and in that time honoured tradition we joined the rest of the locals in a massive traffic jam. Ah there is nothing like a drive in the country!
PS apologies for the picture quality, I had to do these late in the evening.

Drawn while waiting
Canberra airport, e-drawing, location sketch, sculpture, urban sketch, Virginia King, waiting
Two e-drawings from the past few weeks.
The first drawn waiting for our friend to arrive at Canberra airport. Part of the drawing includes the sculpture 'Feather' by New Zealand artist Virginia King.
King says she was inspired by a lyrebird's feather.
Some what less inspirational was my wait at the physiotherapist's. The outlook was out to the rather dour police station and the commercial buildings nearby. My eye was captured by the graphic sign for one of the building's other occupants.
