Q: Horizontal scroller full of DIVs? (auto width) I'm having a great deal of trouble making a horizontal scroller that goes on indefinitely and auto scales (width) to fit the children divs inside of it. It's tough to explain so I've made a fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/M2b46/
HTML

CSS
.scroller {
    overflow: scroll;
    border: 1px solid red;
}

.box-container {
    display: -moz-box;
    display: -webkit-box;
}

.box {
    float: left;
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    background: #0088c4;
    margin: 1em;
}

I'd rather not use box as it seems buggy. On Webkit based browsers, the blue boxes are not visible for some reason. In Firefox it works exactly as I intended.
Any help would be hugely appreciated!

A: I got your solution using inline-block:
.box-container {
    display:block;
    width:100%;
    white-space:nowrap;
}

.box {
    display:inline-block;
    white-space:nowrap;
    width: 100px;
    height: 100px;
    background: #0088c4;
    margin: 1em;

Those involved in healthcare compliance should be aware of two recent and significant developments coming from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Inspector General (OIG) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ).
On Sept. 20, 2016, the OIG announced the largest penalty in history for a provider failing to comply with the requirements of a corporate integrity agreement (CIA). Kindred Healthcare, Inc. had to pay a penalty of more than $3 million for failing to comply with the specific requirements of its CIA.
This penalty should send a signal to providers that failure to implement these requirements will have serious consequences," HHS Inspector General Daniel R. Levinson said.
The takeaway for organizations operating under a CIA now or those that will be in the future is to make sure you understand all the CIA obligations you have agreed to and have resources in place that will allow you to adhere to all of the requirements. This should include required education, audits, reportable events, contract management systems for arrangements, independent review organization reviews, and more. Simply put, if you are operating under a CIA, please be prepared to invest to make sure your compliance personnel have the resources to ensure that you are 100-percent compliant with all the CIA's requirements. Behaving otherwise, as indicated by the Kindred penalty, could be a costly mistake for your organization.
On Sept. 27, 2016, the DOJ reported that the former president and CEO of Toumey Healthcare will be required to personally pay $1 million for his involvement in directing the company to enter into suspect physician arrangements that led to a $72 million Stark settlement and the sale of Toumey to another organization. In addition, he has been excluded from participation in any federal programs for four years.
This case illustrates that the Justice Department will hold executives accountable for their involvement in unlawful activities taking place within their organizations. It also reminds us of the inherent risk of hospital/physician arrangements and the need to have proactive processes in place to mitigate the potential for non-compliant behavior.
If there are executives within your organization trying to "push the envelope" by entering into risky arrangements and/or not adhering to organizational processes when executing contracts (and/or ignoring good legal advice), this information should be shared with them. Remember, part of the role of the compliance officer is to educate all staff members about the compliance risks that exist in today's healthcare environment.
These two developments reinforce the continued need for proactive, robust compliance programs in healthcare organizations, led by knowledgeable compliance officers empowered by board leadership to advise and recommend on suspect actions or behavior. I highly recommend sharing these stories with your board and C-suite.

Q: How to prevent single quote in th:onclick getting escaped when using thymeleaf I want to get onclick="alert('myvar')" in the browser.
I tried
th:onclick="'alert(\'' + ${myVar} + '\');'"

and I got
onclick="alert('null');"

I tried
th:onclick="|alert('${myVar}');|"

and I still got
onclick="alert('null');"

How can I let the single quote not be escaped?

A: The following snipped worked for me:
th:onclick="|alert('${myVar}');|"

That looks like your second attemp but I'm getting:
onclick="alert('null');"

That makes me thinking and I tested your first attemp:
th:onclick="'alert(\'' + ${myVar} + '\');'"

and again I'm getting:
onclick="alert('null');"

Spooky! I searched for similar questions in the thymleaf-forum afterwards and that's the way how to to this.


Rosemary Cornbread … yes, please!
Being a Southern woman comes with it's perks … don't you never mind! I'm not saying I'm a "Southern Belle", but when it comes to cornbread, one can do no wrong. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, side item … serve it up! If you're not a fan of rosemary, live a little! Add your own combination of your favorite fresh herbs. Granted, this variation is a tad bit more savory than I'd kick off just any day – but, it's delicious all the same. Enjoy!
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease muffin tin (I like to use Canola spray for bakers – though I am not one) or or use some festive muffin liners. Combine all ingredients and combine until smooth and batter-like. Fill muffin tins 3/4 full and bake until golden brown. Approximately 20-25 mins. Serve with a smile.

Q: Can the font of chords be changed ("songs" package)? In the songs package, it's possible change the font of chords?
For example: Garamond font for lyrics and Computer Modern for chords?
Or change the color of chords, for example: lyrics-black, chords-red?

A: By redefining  \printchord you can customize the font attributes for the chords. A little example using XeLaTeX:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage[chorded]{songs}

\setmainfont{Garamond}
\newcommand\lmr{\fontfamily{lmr}\selectfont}

\newindex{titleidx}{titleidx}
\noversenumbers

\renewcommand\printchord[1]{{\lmr\small\sffamily\color{red!70!black}#1}}

\begin{document}
\showindex{Complete Index of Songs}{titleidx}
\songsection{Worship Songs}

\begin{songs}{titleidx}
\beginsong{Doxology}[by={Louis Bourgeois and Thomas Ken},
                     sr={Revelation 5:13},
                     cr={Public domain.},
                     index={Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow}]
\beginverse

\[C]A\[G]men.
\endverse
\endsong
\end{songs}

\end{document}

Using pdfLaTeX, you wouldn't load the fontspec package, and you will need an appropriate package providing the Garamond fonts.


A pair of homeless housing sites proposed in the Sherman Oaks area have drawn heated reactions, as well as many questions, prompting an open house to be organized for Thursday evening at Notre Dame High School.
The meeting set for 6 p.m. in the cafeteria of the school was organized by Los Angeles City Councilman David Ryu, who will be in attendance to address residents and business people interested in the issue. The school is at 13645 Riverside Drive.
Similar open-house-style meetings have been held in Venice, and other LA city communities, including Canoga Park, where an emergency housing site is also being studied.
Groups and community members who are involved in efforts to alleviate homelessness will be available to answer questions and give in-depth information on the details about the homeless crisis and how homeless housing projects work, said Ryu spokesman Estevan Montemayor.
The format will allow people to go from booth to booth to get their questions answered, Montemayor said.
"People can come in and have individual conversation with the various participants who will be there," he said.
Representatives of Ryu's office would be able to explain the process the city is using to figure out whether a project would be viable, Montemayor said.
There are still unknowns with many of the projects already being studied or could be studied, including those in Sherman Oaks, he said.
Ryu recently introduced a motion that was needed in order to instruct city staffers to study the feasibility of two potential sites identified in Sherman Oaks. The motion has not been approved, and a study has not begun on the two sites.
The sites include a city-owned parking lot and an adjacent Caltrans-owned site at 15314 W. Dickens St., that is being considered as a place to put an apartment building with on-site supportive services. The aim of this type of housing is to keep formerly homeless people off the streets permanently.
Another site potentially being looked at is the Army Reserve, at 5161 Sepulveda Blvd., which could be used for emergency temporary housing for people who are homeless.
Both sites are the subject of Change.org petitions opposing any potential homeless housing projects, with many saying they are concerned about safety.
Montemayor said that there will be an opportunity during the open house to suggest alternate sites for homeless housing projects.
Los Angeles City Councilman David Ryu has offered up a city-owned property in Sherman Oaks at 15314 West Dickens St., as a possible site for permanent supportive housing, which would house people who are formerly homeless. He also identified an Army Reserve property that could be used as an emergency homeless housing site at 5161 Sepulveda Blvd. in Sherman Oaks.
The groups taking part in the open house include LA Family Housing, an organization that is in charge of placing homeless adults and families into housing, Montemayor added. Representatives of the group will be able to provide information about how emergency housing, permanent supportive housing and other types of housing are typically operated.
Officers from the Los Angeles Police Department will also be on hand to provide information about "safety near bridge and supportive housing sites," Montemayor said.
Representatives from L.A. County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl's office will also be in attendance to talk about how any potential homeless housing sites in Sherman Oaks could fit into a countywide strategy for tackling the crisis.
County mental health officials will also be available to talk about what resources are available for people who are experiencing mental illness and other health problems.
Additionally, representatives of United Way of Greater Los Angeles, a group that works on initiatives to reduce poverty, will be available to talk about permanent supportive housing. The model was heavily backed by the group, which was also involved in helping get Proposition HHH passed. That $1.2 billion bond measure, which was approved in 2016 by Los Angeles city voters, provides funding to help make it easier for permanent supportive housing to get built.
The mayor's office, which is spearheading an initiative called "A Bridge Home" to stand up emergency housing in each of the city's 15 council districts — including the seven with San Fernando Valley neighborhoods — will also be at the open house.
The initiative is aimed at providing stop-gap, "bridge" beds for the tens of thousands of people believed to be living outside into more stable environment, while more permanent housing. Longer term housing is in short supply, and the city and other affordable housing developers must still go through a lengthy process get more permanent supportive housing built.
The first of the "A Bridge Home" temporary housing sites recently opened at a downtown Los Angeles parking lot near Olvera Street, where tent encampments have become a common site. The temporary housing includes 45 beds, 15 for women and 30 for men, for homeless people within a set zone around the shelter.
The bridge home initiative also includes providing stepped-up encampment clean-up services in a set zone surrounding temporary housing sites that are set up. The clean-ups are performed by the Bureau of Sanitation, which is tasked with enforcing Los Angeles municipal code 56.11, an ordinance that regulates the storage of property in public areas, and restricts the setting up of tents and encampments during daytime hours. The clean-up services have been in high-demand among residents in Los Angeles, with Sanitation officials struggling to keep up in recent years with the many requests to remove encampment sites.


Regularly taking a walk is one of the best things you can do for both your physical and mental health. It's especially beneficial if you can take a walk outdoors. Being surrounded by nature can help lower your stress and anxiety levels. New research shows that bird watching may be good for you, as it can help provide a feeling of connectivity to your community, while you're enjoying the greenery. These other four activities can help reduce stress, too!
Sometimes you just need time to relax or focus on YOU. Don't be afraid to take a day off from your regular activities to prioritize taking care of your mental health. Try making your own spa day at home with a soothing bubble bath, candles and maybe even a facial mask. Or get out of the house and spend the day doing nothing but your favorite local activities. You're in charge!
Set aside some time in your day to tune into your brain. Maybe you have a few extra minutes after you get ready in the morning, or maybe there's room to unwind before bedtime. Practicing meditation can do wonderful things for your mental (and physical) health. While it's widely recognized that meditation can help you de-stress, it may also help boost your immune system. Take 10 minutes to gently focus your attention on your own mantra, breathing deeply, and allowing your mind to come right back to your mantra whenever it wanders off. Take a deep breath or two and remember to take care of you! Being proactive about self-care may help you prevent feeling stuck in a rut. It's important to recognize when you aren't feeling your best so that you can get help when you need it sooner.


The Squaw Valley Ski Holdings' CEO, Mr. Andy Wirth's life has been linked with the hotel and mountain resort sector for many years. He has a 25 years' experience, which will help him in transforming the ski area into a leading international winter tourist destination. Andy was born in Nuebrucke, West Germany.
He attended the Colorado State University and later joined Edinburgh University for further studies. While still in school, he got some experience as a backcountry ranger and a wilderness ranger in the Rocky Mountain National Parks and San Pedro Parks Wilderness Area respectively. Mr. Wirth's grandfather was a former Director of the National Park Service, and therefore, Wirth has always loved National Parks.
He made Squaw Valley to be in the leading top 20 percent of the skiing business within a period of one year. One of his significant accomplishments in the resort is facilitating of a merger with Alpine Meadows Ski Resort and clients are now able to buy one admission ticket that is accepted at both resorts.
Mr. Wirth was inspired to be involved with the group after he got a traumatizing accident while skydiving. On that day, the pilot had used a wrong route, and therefore, they jumped away from the landing zone. He landed in a vineyard and a pole severely tore off his arm making him stay in the hospital for a long time.

Consultation for John Milton Academy Trust Admissions Policy 2024-25
The John Milton Academy Trust is an admission authority, and it is a requirement for the Trust to
consult on the admission arrangements for our schools at least once every 7 years.
Therefore, a consultation relating to the Admissions Policy for 2024-25 for all schools within the John
Milton Academy Trust, will commence on Monday 7th November 2022 and will conclude at midnight
on Monday 19th December 2022. The schools covered by this consultation are:
Bacton Primary School
Mendlesham Primary School
Stowupland High School
One proposed amendment to the existing policy is to reduce the PAN for Mendlesham Primary
School from 20 pupils down to 15. This is because the current net capacity in the school is 114
pupils. Although an individual year group can rise to 20 pupils and be accommodated within the
existing building, this higher number cannot be replicated across the school. The substantive PAN,
therefore, needs to be at 15.
Mulberry Centres
Admission to the Mulberry Centres (at Stowupland and Mendlesham) operates through places
commissioned by Suffolk County Council. The Centres are not, therefore, included in this
consultation.
The Consultation Process
We would welcome your views on the proposed admission arrangements. The proposed Admission
Policy for 2024-25 can be found here: JMAT Admissions Policy 2024-25 consultation
Notification of the consultation is being communicated by the Trust to the following:
The Local Authority - Suffolk County Council
All parents and carers of pupils and students of the Trust
Other persons who in the Trust's opinion have an interest in the proposed admission policies.
Parents/carers are welcome to respond by emailing comments relating to the proposed admissions
arrangements as set out above to enquiries@johnmiltonacademytrust.co.uk or if you have any
questions, please contact the headteacher at your school or JMAT Central Office on 01449 742422.
At the end of the consultation process all responses will be collated and presented to the Trust
Board for full consideration. The Admissions Policy for 2024-25 must be approved and published by
28th February 2023 date.

Rod Stewart to perform remotely on MTV Video Music Awards
August 23, 2017 GMT
FILE - In this July 12, 2017 file photo, Rod Stewart performs in Camden, N.J. MTV announced Wednesday, Aug. 23, that Stewart will perform his 1978 hit song, "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy," with pop band DNCE on Sunday. (Photo by Owen Sweeney/Invision/AP, File)
NEW YORK (AP) — Rod Stewart will perform a reworked version of his hit "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?" remotely from Las Vegas at the MTV Video Music Awards, to be held in California.
MTV announced Wednesday that Stewart will perform the 1978 song with pop band DNCE on Sunday. The network said Demi Lovato will also perform remotely from Vegas.
The 2017 VMAs will take place at the Forum in Inglewood, California. Performers include Kendrick Lamar, Ed Sheeran, Pink, Miley Cyrus, the Weeknd, Lorde, Shawn Mendes, Fifth Harmony and host Katy Perry.
On Tuesday, MTV announced an additional award — song of summer. Luis Fonsi's "Despacito" earned a nomination in the late-added category, but the record-breaking video wasn't included in other VMA categories because it hasn't been played on MTV or MTV2.


This paperback edition is exclusive to IWM.
In The Last Big Gun Brian Lavery, the foremost historian of the Royal Navy, employs his trademark wide ranging narrative style, and uses the microcosm of HMS Belfast, to tell the wider story of the naval war at sea and vividly portray the realities for all of life aboard a Second World War fighting 'big ship'.
The book is lavishly illustrated with photographs and illustrations and will appeal to all those with an interest in military history and life in the wartime Royal Navy.


It seems like just a friendly wager between two friends, but the stakes are high as two of the toughest Tie-Down Ropers in the rodeo industry, Tuf Cooper (Professional Rodeo's World Champion and youngest Million Dollar Cowboy), and Cory Solomon (5X WNFR Qualifier), go head-to-head in the practice pen.
But these two don't treat practice lightly. They "prepare to win" by making a wager on Tuf's Calgary Stampede draw. Cory wants to trade up by exchanging competition days. Watch to the end of this Panhandle Wager to see if Tuf gets to keep his position at this prestigious, million dollar rodeo, or if Solomon gets what he came for.
This well-produced video definitely puts some excitement into Tie-Down Roping; and if you're wanting some keen pointers and insight into this event – they're here in this video. So sit back and enjoy a free mini-clinic on Tie-Down Roping, compliments of two of the best competitors in the world!

Q: Is it possible to code this website? I'm a Graphic Designer.
I was wondering if it's possible for a programmer to code this website or I should redesign this?

Because I have doubts about how hard the header and footer are, and I think it's a really hard work for a programmer to code a website like this.
If it's not, please let me know then I will find a developer.

A: This is not impossible. It just takes a moment to think it through.
The footer can be made as a background image of the three colour splats which wraps three separate divs (Projects, Products, Contact Us). The header is a series of images absolutely positioned within a relative parent.
This is actually a very simple layout.

A: The design is bit complex and unusual but not impossible.
It's possible to convert this design in code with use of some script and css hacks mainly position and z-index based hacks

"We got it from Here... Thank You 4 Your service"
Rejoice & Listen To A Tribe Called Quest's New LP "We got it from Here… Thank You 4 Your service"
Published on: Nov 11, 2016, 1:17 AM
by Dana Scott
As 2016 nears its close, there has been much to weep about the year in retrospect. The loss of several music legends, racial injustices and civic travesties that continue to divide and conquer communities in America and abroad, as well as various other deplorable moments in the news that have shaken lives across the world. But the Hip Hop community can curve their pain by enjoying the once-improbable A Tribe Called Quest reunion album We got it from Here… Thank You 4 Your service released today (November 10).
The iconic Queens, New York quartet of Q-Tip, the late Phife Dawg, Ali Shaheed Muhammed, and Jarobi couldn't have collectively arrived at a better time with their final album. The 16-track opus, their first in 18 years since their fifth LP The Love Movement, follows in the wake of the most shocking presidential election upset in modern history.
ATCQ's sixth album arrived one year after their 25th anniversary of their classic debut album People's Instinctive Travels Through The Paths of Rhythm. In an interview with the New York Times, the group's lead MC/producer Q-Tip stated that this final album was inspired from the positive energy to continue following their first TV appearance in 19 years when they performed together on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon in November 2015.
You can enjoy the features from Kendrick Lamar, Sir Elton John, André 3000, and Jack White as well on the finale of their legendary discography above. You can purchase the album on iTunes.
(This article was last updated November 10, 2016 and is as follows.)
With the gloom of the presidential election results looming, Hip Hop fans can brighten their day by getting excited for A Tribe Called Quest's We got it from Here… Thank You 4 Your service album release this Friday (November 11).
The legendary group revealed the tracklist as the project is now available for pre-order on iTunes. The LP is made up of 16 songs split into two discs. The features are not listed, but it has been reported that Kendrick Lamar, André 3000 and Stevie Wonder will appear on Tribe's final album. The project will include new Phife Dawg material that was recorded prior to his death in March of complications due to diabetes.
Tribe also changed the cover art for We got it from Here… Thank You 4 Your service. Check that out and the tracklist below.

(This article was last updated November 3, 2016 and is as follows.)
A Tribe Called Quest is preparing to make its swan song with the release of We got it from Here… Thank You 4 Your service.
The group's official Twitter account shared the album's cover art less than a week after announcing the project is set for a November 11 release.
The We got it from Here… Thank You 4 Your service cover art pays homage to Tribe's sophomore album, The Low End Theory and brings the project into the modern era with a woman taking a selfie.
The group's last LP, which will feature new Phife Dawg verses, is also set to feature André 3000, Kendrick Lamar, Busta Rhymes and Elton John.
Pre-order We got it from Here… Thank You 4 Your service here and check out the cover art below.
(This article was first published October 27, 2016 and is as follows.)
In August, Epic Records exec L.A. Reid teased all of us by revealing that A Tribe Called Quest had one more album to put out after founding member Phife Dawg passed away in March.
Today (October 27), Q-Tip confirmed a Hip Hop fan's greatest dream, that the group did in fact reunite for a final album. The New York legend posted a handwritten note to A Tribe Called Quest's social media to share that the four members, including Jarobi White and Ali Shaheed Muhammad, felt inspired by performing together for the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon a year ago and also touched by the Paris bombings. So they hit the studio and cooked up the final A Tribe Called Quest album.
The project features Busta Rhymes and Consequence and is set for a November 11 release date when "we will complete our paths of rhythm."

Madrid Tapas Bars
Posted on March 23, 2007 by hande
Spain is the reason T. and I had a bumpy start to our relationship. Spain in general, Spanish restaurants specifically. But then again, it was Madrid (and its tapas bars) that brought us back together.
See, it was in a Spanish restaurant (in Düsseldorf) that T. during our 4th or 5th date told me he had met a very nice woman a couple of days after we had met, and no, nothing had happened yet but it just might; and we are not committed, are we; so he just wants to be fair and inform me. No, we were not officially committed but I had laid eyes on this man and I was not sharing him, so I staged the one and only Hollywood-ripe scene in my life: I got up without a word (leaving boquerones on the table, can you believe it?), left the restaurant, threw myself into the next cab that came by and didn't answer his phone calls for a couple of days.
Eventually we talked, of course; I wished him luck and happiness and that was almost it. Couple of weeks later he called to tell me he is taking time off and going to Madrid for a month (yes, the glory of being a freelancer!), freshen up his Spanish. In a half sentence he mentioned that it hadn't worked out with "the other woman". During his stay in Madrid I visited some friends in Munich, his hometown, and got nostalgic about a past we might have had together! So I called and left a message on his mailbox about me being in Munich and him not and that I hoped he ate well in Madrid. I wasn't hoping much, but two weeks later he came back from Madrid, called me and we had breakfast together and etc., etc., etc.; as Yul Brynner would have said… That was exactly 9 years ago.
One summer later, we were officially committed and had already moved to Munich where we rented a flat together and started a company, he finally set out to fulfill his dream (of which I was informed from the first day): Take a year off and travel first around Spain, later across whole South America. And no, he didn't want me to come with him and actually he wasn't planning to write or call a lot during that year, either. So he drove away in early June, in his ragtop, to Spain. I know that the friends I started making in Munich didn't really believe my stories about the boyfriend who supposedly moved to Munich with me and left exactly 6 days later to travel around the world. After a couple of weeks of writing daily emails and multiple short text messages he finally said: "won't you come to Spain so we can travel around together?"
We traveled around Spain for 3 weeks. The last days we spent in Madrid, where he knew a lot of secret bars and corners. We had the time of our life. I fell in love with Madrid and its tapas bars. I had to go back to Munich, to earn money. But I met him again in South America and we backpacked around 5 countries in 2 months. Then he decided it was time to fly back with me to Munich, fly home only half into his year off. Since then we haven't spent a night apart except when I was in the hospital for a couple of times (rollerblading is dangerous).
We were in Spain many more times. We re-visited Andalusia, the Basque Country, Barcelona. But somehow we never made it to Madrid again. When we met someone from Madrid, we would talk about our favorite tapas bars and revel in memories. "Oh, the bacalà and croquetas place opposite the el corte ingles in Puerta del Sol" we would go; or "remember the cabrales that was sitting in the shop window under the sun for at least a year?". So when I finally booked a flight to Madrid, last December, three months ahead of time, I told T. only to take the day off on a certain date as I would be kidnapping him, and that he should pack for a warmer climate. Three weeks ago on Thursday I picked him up at work, we went to the airport and as we reached the display panel with over 60 flights coming up and I told him to guess where we are going, he didn't skip a beat and said "Madrid".
It was beautiful. Again. We found all our "secret" places again, and discovered new ones, too. Not a thing had changed, not the food, not the decoration, not the staff.
Go to Madrid. Go out late. Later. Visit these places if you like. Eat and drink well. But don't forget to find your own "secret" places as well.

Emre,
kocaman öpücük, sen biliyorsun nasil. Senin de böyle bir sehrin olacak bir gün, hic merak etme. O zaman kötü anilar da kaybolucak, inan bana (benim de kötü sehir-ani kombinasyonlarim var, ama onlar unutuluyor).

I just checked into your blog and got a flashback to the amazing churros they have in Madrid. Almost as extraordinary as the divine katmer we had for breakfast in Antep the other day!!! Happy travelling (it's exhausting, isn't it!) – look forward to reading more of your adventures.

Dear Hande, The picture with the guy and the bottle is priceless! I think everybody has a favorite city to travel to, and yes, memories are probably the most legitimate reason for coming back ;)

if it's not a man, the delicious churros con chocolate would bring anybody back to madrid… drool!
Nicky, Johanna,
yes, memories, especially food memories, are enough for me to re-visit some place. And these churros… they were heavenly! So light and not at all greasy.

Mmm, I love Madrid! My other half was sent to wrk there for 6 weeks last year and we both just fell in love with it (well, I fell in love on weeekends when I visited from London!!). I adored how late everything happened in the evening, and I loved walking through El Rastro or the Retiro park. But of course mostly I loved the food… there is a stall in the Mercado La Paz that sells the most sublime ham in the entire world and I miss it like crazy…

A sideways look at carp angling

ISSUE 1 ARCHIVES - Dave Ellyatt - First Time for Everything
ISSUE 1 ARCHIVES
Main man at ESP and all round good guy Dave Ellyatt gives us an enigmatic account of his set of 'first times'. This was the opening piece to our very first print edition, following on from Dave's chapter in the ed's 'The Forgotten Chapters' which was also the opening chapter.. kettle on, stoke up the fire, sit back and enjoy.
First memory of angling
I was taken on family fishing trips from a very young age. We didn't have a car until I was four or five but my grandparents did, and during the summer months we would all bundle into Granddad's old Cortina, along with all the picnic stuff, and follow my dad who would have all the fishing gear on his moped - he usually had a head start! I suppose I had a proper apprenticeship and my earliest memory would be catching tiny rudd, along with my older brother, Mike, using one of my dad's old split cane rods with a length of line tied directly to the tip ring, a tiny float and just fishing 'to hand'.
First lake you fished
On these family trips we would always go to a couple of old gravel pits controlled by Farnham Common Angling Club, near Aldermaston in Berkshire. Aptly named, the Big Pit and Little Pit, they were very old lakes; mature, shallow and silty, full of fish and in the case of the Little Pit, thick Canadian pond weed. I don't actually remember catching my first fish but it would have almost certainly been from the Little Pit in the way described above.
I also caught my first carp from the Little Pit, on float-fished sweetcorn intended for the lake's teeming tench population. It was a common and weighed 5lbs 6oz and it nearly pulled my arm off.
They were lovely lakes and we continued to fish there until the late 80s when a gravel company took control and started to re-dig the Big Pit. The Little Pit became the dumping ground for silt from the gravel washings and is now just a damp, muddy depression where there once was a beautiful lake.
First set of kit you owned
My dad got me a bottle green, two-piece, 12' fibreglass Avon-style blank from Oliver's, a well-known rod builder at the time – although better known for fly rods, I think. He whipped the guides on and varnished it and that pretty much became my 'fish-for-anything' rod for a few years. Combined with that was the obligatory Mitchell 300 reel and an Efgeeco seat box. I remember saving up for that and buying it from the local tackle shop, – then spending the rest of the day sitting on it in the lounge! Contained within it was a lovingly put together and varnished, wooden float box made by Dad.
First shelter
I remember Dad insisting that a 45" brolly wasn't big enough, so I had to have a 50" Wavelock Nubrolli. They were the bright green ones with thick, rubbery material that everyone had, from match to carp anglers. This weighed a ton to a young lad and I hated it and left it at home whenever I could.
First boilie you rolled
It would have been the summer of 1989, and I was inspired by reading Rod Hutchinson's 'The Carp Strikes Back' for the first time. I got hold of some trout pellets from the local tackle shop, put them in a bread bag and tried to smash them up on the workbench in the garage with Mum's rolling pin. This was surprisingly successful and after a few attempts, and a few bags because they kept getting holes in, and sieving off the lumps, I ended up with enough powder to mix with the eggs. A paste was formed, rolled out and cut into cubes and then boiled. No flavours, oils or any other ingredients were used (I didn't have any) but I'm sure I remember being reasonably pleased with the result. The next day I caught 11 tench on this bait! The rolling pin method was soon replaced with a small electric coffee grinder which made the task of grinding the pellets a lot easier.
First 'big-fish' water you fished
That same summer I started fishing Newbury AA's Collin's Lake. I'm not really sure why I chose this lake because it was reputed to be very hard and they had several much easier waters full of small carp, but Collin's was 'the' carp water in the area. It was fished by a small clique of 'proper' carp anglers who I got to know and it was also reputed to hold a huge uncaught common. It was reed-fringed, gin clear, deep, weedy, and mysterious, which held a major allure to an impressionable teenager - nothing changes.
That summer I caught my first double from Collin's, a PB mirror of 12lbs exactly and not long afterwards I followed it up with another of 13lbs 12oz, then another around the same weight. All were caught on my homemade trout pellet boilies, although the mix began to evolve as I started to add fish oil and soya flour and rolled them into 14mm balls on a Gardner Rollaball. The following year, I caught two PBs in one night; mirrors of 16lbs 10oz and 18lbs 11oz. This was the first time I had used Cotswold Bait's Salmon and Shrimp extract in my bait, combined with the bent hook rig – the bait and rigs had advanced somewhat. I also remember reading 'Tiger Bay' cover to cover by candlelight under the bivvy that night, inspirational stuff!

First major loss
After catching my first-ever carp from the Little Pit, we had returned the following weekend and understandably, I opted for the same swim, not so much because I had caught a carp from it but more because it was an excellent tench swim. Part way through the morning the float buried and I hooked into something very big which charged off. I managed to get it back on my light float gear and a tug of war ensued that seemed to last forever. We saw the assailant and it was another common, probably a double, but at the time a monster of unbelievable proportions to me. Eventually, it buried itself in weed and the hook length snapped. I remember feeling absolutely distraught.
First angler you tried to emulate
There are two that spring to mind, stemming from the first two carp books I read. Obviously, making my own bait was inspired by reading 'The Carp Strikes Back', by Rod Hutchinson, who was THE authority on bait at the time. Then there was 'Casting at the Sun', by Chris Yates. I brought that with Christmas book vouchers not long after it was published in 1986 and read it from cover to cover, twice in two days. In it, Chris talked about finding mysterious carp pools using Ordnance Survey maps so I went out and brought maps covering my local area. I didn't find much but poring over the maps looking for unknown tell-tale patches of blue made me feel very much the Yates-esque pioneer.

First fish you targeted
This was quite a few years later after moving to Oxford. I began sporadically fishing a neglected club lake for its small head of carp. One day while fishing, I got chatting to another angler who told me about an old 33lb mirror he had caught the previous year from an Oxford park lake. It was apparently the biggest of just a very small handful of carp. I had heard of the lake but never seen it so, very tempted, I went for a look. It wasn't the most attractive of settings, being an old reservoir of 10-12 acres that once supplied the city's water. It was almost hidden away, sandwiched between old, terraced streets that ran off one of Oxford's main arterial roads and the Oxford to London railway line that hugged the far side of it. The lake was long and relatively narrow and spanned by a footbridge that allowed you to look into its tantalisingly clear water and view the dumped motorbikes, bicycles and other junk that littered the lake bed.
A small boating area and an outdoor swimming pool bordered the opposite side of the lake to the railway, as well as a pocket of actual green space complete with trees and a playground that you would expect in a municipal park. Aside from the usual families and dog walkers, the park also seemed to attract the unsavoury element with tramps and addicts frequenting this urban 'idyll', but despite all this, I was very tempted to have a go…
'Aside from the usual families and dog walkers, the park also seemed to attract the unsavoury element with tramps and addicts frequenting this urban 'idyll', but despite all this, I was very tempted to have a go…'
First thirty
…so the following Sunday I returned to the park lake armed with my gear. It was intended more as a bit of a recce than anything and I took with me 3kg of boilies to deposit if I found any likely-looking spots.
I chose a relatively quiet area towards the far end of the lake off the main footpath. Breaking out the marker rod, I had a feel around and as you would expect for an old reservoir the depth was very uniform, averaging only nine feet and feeling very soft and silty. However, I found what felt like a slightly firmer, smoother area at around 50 yards out and cast a couple of rigs onto it, accompanied by a bit of bait.
Nothing happened but before leaving in the evening I put all the remaining bait I had with me onto the spot, vowing to return the following Friday, which was the Good Friday at the start of the Easter holiday.
I had good intentions of arriving at dawn before the park opened, but overslept and didn't arrive until after 9am. Heading straight for the baited swim, I was relieved to find it empty; in fact, I was the only angler on the lake. I cast a couple of pop-ups out onto the spot and scattered a few freebies around them, then put the kettle on and sat back to wait for something, anything really. I wasn't feeling especially confident and I didn't know much about the place, so although I was in a pre-baited spot I really felt like I was just chancing my arm.
So I was pleasantly surprised when only an hour after casting out, the right-hand bobbin pulled up tight and I lifted into something that didn't really feel like anything special. I had heard that the lake held some big bream so thought the thing plodding around on the end could be one of them. I kept it coming toward me without too much resistance, just expecting a bream or tench. Then this huge, pale shape appeared just below the surface about ten yards out and my legs turned to jelly. It rolled around on the surface for a bit and then I just scooped it up in the net.
The whole fight must have only lasted a couple of minutes, but here I was with a whacking great mirror looking up at me. At that moment an old man who used to come down every morning on his bike to feed the ducks pulled up behind me. I don't think he was too impressed because I was occupying one of his daily feeding spots so rather disinterestedly he asked me what it was.
"It's a carp mate!" I said with I'm sure a tad more excitement.
He considered it for a few seconds then asked, "How big is it then, about 10lbs?"
I looked up at him in surprise then confidently said, "I think it might be a bit bigger than that!"
He still didn't look impressed and mumbling something, he cycled off down the path, looking for some ducks to feed.
Leaving the carp in the net, I fumbled for my sling and scales and recorded a weight of 35lbs 14oz. I really couldn't quite believe my good fortune. Then after sacking the fish in the margins while considering who to call to come and take some photos, I phoned my mate Adam.
Funnily enough, I had only purchased my first mobile phone a couple of days before and hadn't even used it yet, so the very first call I made with it was to report my first 30. Adam was fishing up in Bedfordshire, on Elstow Pit 2. Whatever I blurted out conveyed the utmost importance that he drop everything and hot-foot it back to Oxford in record time - luckily he agreed…
'Adam was fishing up in Bedfordshire, on Elstow Pit 2. Whatever I blurted out conveyed the utmost importance that he drop everything and hot-foot it back to Oxford in record time - luckily he agreed…'
First magazine cover
… Adam arrived an hour or so later and we marvelled over the gnarly, old mirror. It looked ancient and its stubby fins explained the plodding fight - it was then that we christened her Stumpy. He did me proud with the photos and a few days later the slides came back. I sent a couple off to Carp Talk and was even more surprised when they put it on the front cover; the main story that week being the tragic news of Steve Neville's workshop burning down.
A couple of years later, I returned the favour and landed the big mirror for Adam after popping down to see how he was getting on. The take came while we were sitting drinking tea. It completed a fine campaign for him after catching most of the lake's other special residents; it became apparent that the lake held just seven carp. Adam's capture was Stumpy's last, as far as I'm aware. She was found dead the following year.
First lake that beat you
Another park lake and this one was considerably further away from home. I started fishing it in August '11 through until the end of November that year, so it was hardly a concerted campaign, but I put a lot of miles, effort, bait and time into fishing it for just one 20lb common. Any fish from this lake with it minimal stock of carp is a worthy capture, though, and I was happy just to have caught one. I really enjoyed my fishing over there and on one occasion had the big'un show over my spot twice in the space of a few minutes, but, alas, that was as close as I got.
I found out sometime after I fished the lake that the big'un had been caught just a week before I started fishing it, but it was kept very quiet. This fish rarely put in more than one appearance a year, and had I known that, I think I could have spent my time better elsewhere, but that's angling and you can't win them all.
'on one occasion had the big'un show over my spot twice in the space of a few minutes, but, alas, that was as close as I got'
First forty
I wrote about this capture in 'The Forgotten Chapters'. While writing this piece I have just picked up the book again and reread my account for the first time since the book was published a couple of years ago. It brings it all back and I must admit that reliving that capture and the events leading up to it sends a tingle down my spine. It was one of the most exciting angling episodes in my life and although moments like that happen all too rarely, I suppose it largely sums up why I go fishing.
That capture was the result of one of my most intense spells of angling in recent years. I walked literally miles around the windswept pit before eventually finding some fish, and then spent the night trying to sleep on my unhooking mat in the teeth of a chilly northerly. Then, the next day, I watched the big fully return and feed in the edge before I somehow managed carelessly to throw some bait on its head and spook it. I thought the chance was gone until the clutch on the almost forgotten rod lying on the ground started screaming and my prayer was answered.

First Patients in US Treated with Varian HyperArc High Definition Radiotherapy | Varian
First Patients in US Treated with Varian HyperArc High Definition Radiotherapy
PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Varian (NYSE: VAR) today announced five patients with brain cancer became the first patients in the US to be treated using the company's HyperArc™ High Definition Radiotherapy (HDRT), a new type of radiosurgery treatment, at the University of Alabama at Birmingham Comprehensive Cancer Center. HyperArc is designed to automate and simplify sophisticated treatments such as stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and make them available to more cancer patients around the world.
"We have been doing preclinical and clinical development of single isocenter radiosurgery for a decade," said John Fiveash, M.D., professor and vice chair for academic programs in the UAB Department of Radiation Oncology. "Over the last five years, our radiosurgery plan quality has improved to equal or exceed our Gamma Knife. Physicians and patients preferred the frameless and highly efficient delivery on our TrueBeam and Edge systems and our Gamma Knife was decommissioned June 2017. HyperArc planning automates much of the radiosurgery treatment planning strategies that we have implemented at UAB and could enable more clinics to perform higher quality radiosurgery for more patients."
"Working closely with leading institutions like UAB played an important role in the development of HyperArc," said Kolleen Kennedy, president of Varian's Oncology Systems business. "We value their continued contributions to the advancement of cancer care and we are excited that HyperArc treatments have now begun in the US."
HyperArc capitalizes on the unique capabilities of Varian's TrueBeam™ and EDGE™ treatment systems. HyperArc treatments allow clinicians the ability to deliver more compact radiation doses that closely conform to the size, shape, and location of tumors while sparing more surrounding healthy tissue. These advanced treatments can be delivered in a conventional treatment time slot. The treatment planning for HyperArc is supported by Varian's Eclipse™ treatment planning software.
For more information on HyperArc, visit www.varian.com/es-419/hyperarc
Varian Medical Systems focuses energy on saving lives and is the world's leading manufacturer of medical devices and software for treating and managing cancer. Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, Varian employs approximately 6,600 people around the world. For more information, visit http://www.varian.com and follow @VarianMedSys on Twitter.

Salt Lake County health authority endorses Medicaid expansion, stays neutral on medical marijuana
By: Ben Winslow
SALT LAKE CITY -- The largest public health policy board in Utah has voted to support a citizen ballot initiative expanding Medicaid in Utah, but will remain neutral on medical marijuana.
At its monthly meeting on Thursday, the Salt Lake County Board of Health voted unanimously to support Proposition 3, which expands Medicaid.
"We believe bringing those federal dollars into Utah is wise," Board Chairwoman Clare Coonan told FOX 13. "It will cover more Utahns in terms of access to health care."
Prop. 3, which would raise the sales tax by .15 percent on non-grocery items, has received big endorsements from groups like AARP, American Cancer Society, the National MS Society and United Way of Salt Lake.
But after a lot of debate, the board opted not to take a position on Proposition 2.
"I have trouble calling it medicine. You could maybe call it herbal treatments and I'd feel better about it," said Dr. William Cosgrove. "But when we use the term medicine, we presume somebody has done careful research."
Others pointed out medical cannabis could benefit some people, but were uncomfortable with the dispensing provisions of the ballot initiative.
"Are we better with opioids, or are we better with something like this?" Dr. Ruedi Tillman told the board. "There's pros and cons both ways."
Prop. 2 has faced strong opposition from a coalition of groups under the name Drug Safe Utah including the Utah Medical Association, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, state lawmakers, the Utah Eagle Forum, the Episcopal Diocese of Utah and Islamic Society of Greater Salt Lake. The initiative came about after patient advocates left frustrated after years of inaction by the Utah State Legislature.
It was obvious from Thursday's meeting, members of the board -- which sets healthcare policy for more than a million people in the Salt Lake Valley -- had heartburn. They took turns, debating amongst themselves the advantages and disadvantages of medical cannabis.
"While there may be some benefit, the risks are not really known and they're not really studied," said Dr. Dorothea Verbrugge. "It puts the physician in the position of having to be the gatekeeper for this substance."
Ultimately, Dr. Verbrugge suggested the board remain neutral.
"If you look at statewide support, it appears to be more than half," she said. "We don't want to create a situation here where people who support it can't say it."
The board agreed and adjourned, taking no position.
The Utah Patients Coalition, which is sponsoring Prop. 2, said it was a good decision by the board to stay neutral on a political issue. Drug Safe Utah declined comment on the board's decision.

Carriera
Originariamente pronosticato come una scelta degli ultimi giri del Draft NFL 2018, Moseley alla fine non venne scelto, firmando con i San Francisco 49ers il 28 aprile 2018. Fu svincolato alla fine della pre-stagione, rifirmando per la squadra di allenamento il 2 settembre. Fu promosso nel roster attivo il 1º novembre e debuttò come professionista quella sera stessa nella vittoria per 34-3 sugli Oakland Raiders, in cui mise a segno un tackle con gli special team. In quella partita si infortunò a una spalla, venendo inserito in lista infortunati il giorno successivo.

Moseley disputò la prima partita come titolare il 7 ottobre 2019 contro i Cleveland Browns, deviando un passaggio nella end zone. Il primo intercetto in carriera lo fece registrare il 27 ottobre contro i Carolina Panthers ai danni di Kyle Allen nella vittoria per 51-13. Un altro intercetto lo mise a segno nella finale della NFC ai danni di Aaron Rodgers dei Green Bay Packers nella vittoria per 37-20. Il 2 febbraio 2020 partì come titolare nel Super Bowl LIV in cui mise a segno 5 tackle ma i 49ers furono sconfitti per 31-20 dai Kansas City Chiefs.

Nel marzo del 2021 Moseley firmò con i 49ers un rinnovo contrattuale biennale del valore di 10,1 milioni di dollari.

Nel quinto turno della stagione 2022, Moseley si ruppe il legamento crociato anteriore, venendo inserito in lista infortunati il 15 ottobre 2022.

The Sacred, the Profane, and Pokémon Go
Posted on July 17, 2016 By historicitywasalreadytaken
I am not here to tell you why it's disrespectful to play Pokémon Go at the Holocaust Museum or wherever. Frankly, if you need to be told why, you're too far-gone for anything I say to have any impact. So let's just skip past my pearl-clutching and moral assessments and move on to meaning; what does it mean to play Pokémon Go in spaces with commemorative meanings assigned to them?
Before I go any further, and for those of you out of the loop (like my mom, who thought this game involved following clues to people dressed like Pokémon), Pokémon Go is a cell phone game which, using the mobile device's camera and GPS, allows players to catch, train, and battle Pokémon in the physical environment, transformed within the augmented reality of gameplay.
Oh hey look, there's a Squirtle chilling in my office with my freshly processed papers.
Once a Pokémon is spotted, the player has to throw a Pokéball within the game and make a successful catch. And if the player catches all the Pokémon lurking in their immediate vicinity, they have to get up, and walk around their city, town, or local park to find more. If a player wants to buy supplies or battle with other players, they have to walk to a PokéStop or a Pokémon Gym, typically located at identifiable landmarks like monuments, local strip clubs, and some dude's converted church house (no but actually).
I've thought a lot of about different spaces where gameplay could be perceived as tacky or inappropriate, and I'm going to focus on three sites: Auschwitz, where 1,100,000 Jews and 200,000 Romani, gay men and women, people with mental and physical disabilities, Resistance members, dissidents, and POWs were tortured, abused, executed, and tossed into the ovens; Tuol Sleng (previously known as Security Prison 21/S-21), a former high school used by the Cambodian Khmer Rouge regime as a prison, torture and execution center; and the September 11 Memorial and Museum, the site of death for nearly 3,000 people, and the grave of those whose remains were never identified.

The Khmer Rouge photographed every S-21 incoming prisoner, and here are a fraction of those images on display at
the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum. Image courtesy of said museum.
NOTE: The images I chose to represent Auschwitz and Tuol Sleng are comparatively tame. I could have chosen much more disturbing ones, but I find those extremely triggering, and I have no desire to spring that on anyone.
I choose these three because these are inarguably sites of human suffering, murder, and/or torture. That legacy cannot be assigned; it's intangible. These sites are not in any way spatially divorced from the horrors they commemorate.
I don't think the game has been released in Cambodia (yet) so my use of Tuol Sleng is hypothetical. But it has been released in Poland and the US and yes, people have and are playing Pokémon Go at Auschwitz and at the September 11 Memorial and Museum.
Here someone plays the game one of the two September 11 Memorial Pools, which lie in the footprints of the two towers. Image courtesy of Time Magazine.
So again I had to ask myself, what does this mean?

Pokémon Go's gameplay allows users to assert augmented reality over their surroundings. They engage as people on the game board of Pokémon Go, not as people taking in the meaning of the space around them. The game takes what exists, and projects itself over it. Thus, in these spaces I'm discussing, that is no longer a room where a Khmer Rouge official tortured a librarian, or where Jews were forced to huddle together like cattle before the slaughter,or where unidentified human remains still lie, but simply wallpaper; just the setting of a game.

To play Pokémon Go at these sites is to divorce them of all meaning, wrest them away from the hideous pasts they and all visitors must bear witness to. And I guess I lied; I have to extend moral judgement here, because that act?-is pretty profane.
At a site like the Vietnam War Memorial*, it's a much more ambiguous relationship. This is a memorial to lives lost on a battlefield across the sea. It's meaningful because we, as a society, have made it meaningful. People bring to it their grief and trauma and memories, and in doing so imbue it with meaning. Or to put differently, the meaning of the Vietnam War Memorial is a constructed, but it's a meaningful, important construct.
It is a symbolic site of mourning which means different things to each of the millions of people who visit it. One person could see playing Pokémon Go at the Vietnam Memorial as a horrific insult to fallen soldiers and veterans suffering from trauma, while another could see at as a tribute to a fun-loving grandfather, or never-met uncle. Because it is not on the site of death, the meanings of augmented reality gameplay at the Vietnam Memorial are too fractured for me to be able to make any definitive statements about them.
There's a lot more to say here. About playing this and other augmented reality games at sites like cemeteries, war memorials, monuments, museums, art installations, gentrifying spaces; about space, interaction, memory, and human geography. I have really just begun to scratch the surface, and I welcome contributions.
*I used the Vietnam War Memorial as an example here, but this discussion can apply to any number of cemeteries or memorials or monuments located away from the site of death, or violence.
← Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story
Hi, I've been reading about nationalism and identity and a book I read argues that nations are an imaginary construct and I was wondering how this would effect the way history is viewed. Also, for you, how significant are the values a country has in the way that a country presents itself? Should there be a shared history for shared values? Apologies for this being quite long →

Interview with: Marilena Ramadori
Marilena Ramadori, aka Zizza, was born in 1965 in Montegiorgio (FM). After completing her scientific studies, she graduated in Architecture at the University of Rome "La Sapienza" and subsequently attended the postgraduate course in History of Architectural Design. In 2003 she obtained a European master's degree in History of Architecture at the "Roma Tre" University and completed the process with an internship at the Superintendence for Architectural Heritage and Landscape of Rome. She collaborated with the publishing house Orienta Edizioni as a scientific consultant and in 2011 she published as author the volume entitled Manual of the floors. In 2014 she approaches painting and at the same time also experiments with sculpture. In 2017 and 2018 she attended the painting courses held by Prof. Fabrizio dell'Arno at the RUFA (Rome University of Fine Art), which were crucial for continuing her artistic career with greater awareness and knowledge. In her works, the traits of her training emerge in fact at the center of her research is architecture.
She has participated in various national and international exhibitions of painting and sculpture, obtaining various prizes and awards. In 2020 she is among the thirty finalists of the 14th Arte Laguna Prize.
She lives and works in Velletri.
Welcome Marilena, I would like to start this interview from the beginning, do you remember which artist or which artwork moved something inside you when you were a child?
I have always been fascinated by art and above all by drawing. More than an artist or an artwork, what inspired me when I was little was my father. His attitude towards drawing, the technical tables of his alumni he corrected, the skill of his hands over rulers and squares when the computer was still not widely used. Then there were his freehand drawings, capable of reproducing, as if by magic, any subject. In my eyes as a child, and today in those of a woman, these are the works of art that I jealously keep in my heart.
And then? How have your approach and references changed growing up?
The choice of my training path and in particular some courses at the Faculty of Architecture in Rome, where I graduated, stimulated my interests even more. It is with Drawn Architecture, with theories on the autonomy of sign and drawing in architecture that I discover and broaden my horizons. Among the interpreters Aldo Rossi, Arduino Cantafora, Massimo Scolari in Milan and Rome Franco Purini and Carlo Aymonino, were important in my student growth. Deepening the relationship between artistic language and architectural design, I discovered Mario Sironi and his Urban Landscapes. The architectural feeling shines through in each of his works: in the power and essentiality of the forms, in the choice of colors and in the use of aerial perspective. Also in Aldo Rossi's 1950's Vedute Milanesi, I find the same industrial suburbs, the same urban landscapes painted by Sironi: the use of color, the wings of the buildings symbolizing an essential architecture, devoid of frills, where the window is a hole because its function is solely and exclusively to let the light in. These are my points of reference and my inspirations.
How would you describe your practice to someone who doesn't know you? What are the recurring elements, themes and concepts you refer to?
In my works I try to narrate architecture by highlighting its expressive qualities and the essentiality of the forms. Architecture thus becomes not only construction but interpretation. Art is always architecture understood as a constructive force.
In my paintings I try to combine the charm of the purity of the lines and the clarity of the architectural forms, indebted to the immobile clarity of the metaphysical forms of De Chirico, a certain expressive freedom of the background of the canvas that continuously comes into contact with the architecture I draw and paint trying to create a play of transparencies, lights and shadows. The vertical drippings do not hide the legibility of the represented image but with this expressive freedom I try to put the buildings under a new perspective, transforming them into iconographic impressions, creating a painting between figuration and abstraction. I try to use the fluid pictorial material, the transparent color to show the different layers of the painting so that this work can be able to narrate the phases of its realization.
Usually each artist has a different modus operandi, what is yours? How did your projects start and how do they develop?
I try to see the painting as a project, the first thing I face is the useful and necessary historical research to better understand the architectural subjects on which I decide to work. The historical references, the idea that produced them and their expressive power constitute the motivation for which I try to undertake what I call a narration, a tale made of images and words that help me to contextualize the work and understand its intrinsic value. The series on the Palazzine Romane (Roman buildings), an urban phenomenon that emerged in the 1920s and 1930s as the residence of the emerging bourgeoisie, was dictated by the desire to make known a forgotten Rome: a historical period in which architects and engineers had a utopian vision and they had managed to give Rome the image of a modern city. The Palazzina, in the years of reconstruction, became the protagonist of the new urban fabric of Rome, making it overcome the concept of the nineteenth-century city: trying to put "particular" paintings of this open-air archive on my canvases was like rediscovering a forgotten "value" and proposing it in a contemporary key.
The compositional study of the work is also very important to me and above all I try to create in the canvas a personal shot of the architecture that I choose to represent. I prefer perspective views from the bottom upwards where the eye meets the drippings that descend, thus creating a play of light and shadows and a sort of "suspension" of the represented image. This perspective view that I try to represent leads me above all to remember man's need to turn his eyes to the sky to contemplate its immensity.
What function do you attribute to your works and why?
Buildings have always accompanied humanity and trying to investigate their expressive language becomes the aim of my research.
It is a kind of journey to be shared with others through a variety of stories where the building, or parts of it, are the protagonist. I try to interpret architecture by leaving room for imagination. Architectures of a recent past, sometimes suspended and timeless but ready to be questioned in order to grasp their modernity. My work could be photographic but I think painting offers something more as a means of expression thanks to color and personal interpretation.
We are at the end of this short interview, would you like to add something about your research and your art that has not emerged previously?
I started painting later in my life, but it is with painting that I felt strong emotions. What is hidden behind a brushstroke is not just a gesture but hides a state of mind that conditions color and formal choices. I would like to think of my works as a narrative capable of stimulating those who want to observe them to understand, by looking, the important transformations that have taken place in the urban fabric of our country. As Aldo Rossi wrote, "architecture is the fixed scene of human affairs, charged with the feelings of entire generations, public events, private tragedies, new and ancient facts". It is with this conviction and with the awareness that every architecture conceals symbolic and emotional meanings that I began to paint, approaching this world that had always fascinated me.

Ryan Manning, one of Salt Lake City's most knowledgeable and skilled bartenders, recently let us tag along for an afternoon in search of pine for a nature-infused Whiskey & Pine cocktail.
This fall cocktail with woodsy undertones is perfect for sipping straight from the Barebones canteen, whether you're cozying up by a fireplace or taking your time on an afternoon hike.
We love the thoughtful ways he pairs and prepares ingredients, borrowing inspiration and flavors from the beauty that surrounds us. Whether you have time to forage during a week-long backpacking trip or ten minutes to scrounge something wonderful right in your own backyard, experts like Ryan have a way of easing away any intimidation associated with working with foraged material.
Pay attention to seasonality — while you can find pine any time of year, Ryan taught us to keep an eye out for tender, vibrant, new-growth tips of branches around late spring and early summer. They'll be a little more mild in flavor, and if well-sealed, can be frozen and stored for up to one year.
When Ryan isn't foraging for mushrooms on the mountainside or carefully examining leaf patterns in search of perfect [and perfectly safe to eat] berries along a trail, you can find him managing the bar and leading education courses at Under Current and creating an ever-evolving cocktail program at establishments like RYE.
Remove 3 oz from Campari bottle and replace with pine needles. Shake and let infuse for at least 4 hours. Use a small strainer when adding Campari to cocktail to catch needles.
This cocktail is built in a short tumbler or rocks glass. Add ice, give it a stir, and it will develop as it dilutes and changes temperature.
Add all ingredients to canteen, shake then let infuse for 4 hours or more.
When ready to serve, top the canteen off with ice. Keep strainer cap on and it'll catch most of the pine needles as you pour.

SME drafted the successful $400,000 EPA Brownfields Coalition Grant for the Noblesville Coalition in 2011 and was retained by the Coalition in 2012. The City of Noblesville received $300,000 for assessment of sites impacted with hazardous substances and $100,000 for assessment of petroleum-impacted sites.
SME performed multiple Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessments (ESAs) to support the creation of Noblesville's Federal Hill Commons Park — the site of an amphitheater, market space, splash ground and event space (former automotive service sites), and expansion of Sheridan's Biddle Park (former glass and brick factory). We also completed a Hazardous Materials Building assessment (asbestos and lead surveys) in support of The Belfry Theater Group who plans to create a 200-seat community theater auditorium in downtown Noblesville. Assessments were completed on two sites to allow for new affordable housing buildings, which also included assessment and consulting on vapor intrusion issues.
SME also conducted a significant assessment and site characterization of the former Noblesville Foundry. Despite being utilized for industrial purposes for nearly 100 years and a myriad of complex issues, the team's use of the assessment grant provided the purchaser with the necessary information to review risks, and complete the property transaction.
SME completed the following activities:
8 Phase I ESAs
13 Phase II ESAs
6 Hazardous Materials Assessments (Asbestos/Lead Paint Surveys)
1 Cleanup Plan
1 request for State of Indiana Brownfield Comfort Letter
EPA Brownfields Program reporting
Outreach assistance to the Coalition through meetings and presentations to Coalition members, property owners and developers
Federal Hill Commons Park is a 6.5-acre urban park, which is named after its location in the Federal Hill District and incorporates the city's history into its design. The park's grand opening was held on May 13, 2017.

Before eating anything blindly we should know what it is made of. This is especially true in the case of medicines and supplements. Without this necessary precaution we might end up eating the wrong thing which might prove fatal. So if you have heard about the amazing benefits of phenQ you should know what ingredients are used in making the supplement. Besides you will also get to know the benefits of all the ingredients contained in it. The first ingredient is capsimax powder.
Now if you are wondering what is it, let me tell you that it is nothing but a blend of capsicum and vitamin B3. This contributes towards weight loss by increasing the body's temperature. We already know what will happen when the body's temperature increases. For those who don't know, it encourages thermogenic burn which allows the body to burn as much as 250 calories daily. This capsimax powder also contains piperine which prevents the formation of fats.
If you think the above mentioned are the only ingredients you are wrong. The next ingredient is Nopal. The pill gets its main source of fiber from this particular ingredient. It helps in regulating the bowel movements. Lastly, the pill contains L-carnitine Furmarate which is another natural occurring amino acid found in red meat and vegetables. The ingredient contributes towards weight loss by converting fats into energy. Now that you know all the ingredients and what they do to the body you might want to try the pill to see for yourself.


We went out to eat tonight. While we were waiting for a table (in some places, the restaurant can be fairly empty and we still need to wait as they accommodate our family by pushing tables together), Isaac was very interested in the tootsie rolls that could be acquired by donating to some organization or other. He was told several times that they weren't for the taking and that he needed to leave him alone.
Later, as we were finishing our meal, we decided to let the boys get some desserts to share - half the table would be sharing a strawberry sundae, and the other half, a chocolate one. I realized too late that things were a bit skewed. A 5 and 3-year-old on one side, and a 9, 7, and 3-year-old on the other. We tried to get things evened up, but of course the strawberry side did not want to move to to the chocolate side, and vise-versa. When trying to get Isaac's decision, we asked him several times if he wanted chocolate or strawberry, and, apparently deep in thought, he didn't answer us the first couple of times. Finally, he looked very earnestly up into Daddy's face and said in his tiny voice, "I don't want two desserts."
"Two desserts?" Daddy was searching for meaning.
"Yeah, I want to have a tootsie roll and not have any ice cream."
We produced some change and he got his tootsie roll and proceeded to finish it almost before the ice cream arrived. As the rest of the boys were eating the ice cream, Isaac politely inquired, "Noah and Jo-Jo, and Sam and Caleb, are your sundaes good?" He was completely satisfied with his tootsie roll.
Is this my child? A tootsie roll over ice cream?


For a limited-time, we've partnered with Visa Checkout to provide great savings of $1,000 off First Class fares, $250 off Business Class fares and $50 off Economy Class fares on round-trip flights departing from all Emirates US airports to selected destinations across our global network.
To take advantage of this great offer, use promotional code USVISAC and make sure to select the Visa Checkout button when you're ready to pay.
The sweet spot is if you find a cheap first class fare, but $50 on economy is nice too.
Southwest is marketing to differentiate themselves from legacy carriers. Bags Fly Free is a clear differentiation, but the miles program isn't as clear cut. I don't doubt their math below, but they are missing a big component. United has flat rate award pricing, so no round trips are less than 25,000 miles. Southwest bases award prices on ticket costs, so their round trip prices shift as the price changes. United passengers are less like to use award miles on cheap flights, but can receive great value using their miles for expensive flights since it's the same cost in miles.
Why only care about breast cancer in October? Could it be virtue signaling or is this a cause being tangiably supported? I wouldn't mind the all out pink assault in October if airlines permitted pink year round and just encouraged it in October. Also knowing of any tagible results from this campaign would be nice.


Chris and Darien are here!
This title is in transition as of June 2018.
Darien had hoped but not expected to see Mr. Faith at one of the many holiday parties up and down Main Street. He'd heard from his friends what the Eventide was like, but he was delighted by the fact that they'd spoken true. Dozens of open doors, barrels of spirits, prettily made-up women and dashing men all in holiday finery. He'd been propositioned more than once by both sexes but had turned everyone down, looking, hoping to see one man. His prospects had looked grim, and he'd decided on just one more party, one of the theater parties to see if the Rose family was in attendance. He knew they were in town tonight. Many partygoers had enthused when the Rose carriage had arrived a few hours past, each host and hostess hoping for noble guests to grace their establishment. Not that there weren't a dozen or so barons and at least two viscounts currently in residence, but every party wanted their ruling family in attendance.
Tyler exchanged glances with James across the table. The younger footman raised a questioning brow, but Tyler could only shrug.
"Yes, sir." He removed the apron that protected his clothing, then handed it and a feather duster to James before he followed Mr. Faith from the dining room.
A narrow set of stairs near the door led them down to the servants' hall just outside the kitchen. Wet heat and the din of washing dishes closed around him, a sensation that had become familiar in the scant time he had been at Rose Hall. In nearly a month, he had settled into the routine happily. It was good work that dominated his day. A myriad of tasks left him little free time. More footmen had been hired, and they were all needed to keep the house running smoothly. He especially enjoyed helping Mr. Faith in the wine cellar and the pantry and had been sent into town a few times with the driver to fetch supplies. His one day off in the week, he walked to Claire to see his family. Occasionally he had time to make use of the permission given through Mr. Faith to borrow from the hall's extensive library. He had no complaints.
Mr. Faith held the office door for him, then closed it after they were inside. Tyler stood before the desk as Mr. Faith rounded it to sit.
