Black Heart, Ivory Bones: All that's best of dark and bright
Black Heart, Ivory Bones edited by Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling
Black Heart, Ivory Bones is the sixth and final entry in Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling's series of fairy tale anthologies. Of the six, I've read four, and each has its own particular flavor, its own unique mood. While all of the books contain a mix of light and darkness, in this volume there seems to be more of a balance: "all that's best of dark and bright," if you will. The mood that Black Heart, Ivory Bones evoked in me was a wistfulness, maybe, or a pensiveness. When I first read the series, Black Thorn, White Rose was my favorite, but I've come to a deeper enjoyment of this volume as I've grown older. At this point I'd have to say the two are now tied in my mind.
My favorite stories in this collection are:
"Rapunzel" by Tanith Lee. Lee is famous for dark, sharp-edged stories, but here she offers a sweet, sunny tale of a prince who falls for a quirky young lady in the forest — what's stuck with me is his musing that loving her is one thing, but liking her is dangerous indeed — and needs a way to make his father the king accept her as his bride. Luckily, "the Dad" is a sucker for a fairy tale, so the prince spins a yarn about an evil witch and a doorless tower…
"And Still She Sleeps" by Greg Kostikyan. A sleeping beauty from Arthurian times is unearthed on an archaeological dig. Only true love can wake her, but how can true love find her when there's no one left alive who really knows her? The story is bittersweet and will get you thinking about the nature of love and the way "true love" is often presented in fairy tales.
"You, Little Match Girl" by Joyce Carol Oates. This story hit me like a ton of bricks, and it did so by making me forget all about the fairy tale until the last minute. When I did realize what was going on… well, I don't want to spoil any more, but wow, what a haunting piece.
"The Cats of San Martino" by Ellen Steiber. Steiber starts with an Italian version of the type of tale in which one sister is kind to a supernatural being and is rewarded, while the other sister is snotty and is punished. Here, though, one "sister" is a modern-day woman reeling from a nasty breakup, who finds rest and comfort at a mysterious villa populated solely by cats. The other "sister" is not her sister at all, but someone else entirely; you'll have to read the story to learn the rest! Steiber paints the Italian countryside so vividly you'll think you're there right along with the heroine as she takes in its beauties and recovers her emotional strength.
"Mr. Simonelli or the Fairy Widower," by Susanna Clarke. Clarke blends traditional fairy lore with the mannered style employed in 19th century literature to create this drily hilarious story.
There are many other great tales in this collection, and this review would take up the whole page were I to list them all! My choices for favorite stories in the anthology have changed somewhat over the years, but the book as a whole is a standout to both my 23-year-old self and my 32-year-old self. I highly recommend it.
July 10th, 2010. Kelly Lasiter´s rating: 5 | Charles De-Lint, Delia Sherman, Ellen Datlow, Esther Friesner, Jane Yolen, Neil Gaiman, Susanna Clarke, Tanith Lee, Terri Windling | Short Fiction | SFF Reviews, We Love This! | no comments |
KELLY LASITER, with us since July 2008, is a mild-mannered academic administrative assistant by day, but at night she rules over a private empire of tottering bookshelves. Kelly is most fond of fantasy set in a historical setting (a la Jo Graham) or in a setting that echoes a real historical period (a la George RR Martin and Jacqueline Carey). She also enjoys urban fantasy and its close cousin, paranormal romance, though she believes these subgenres' recent burst in popularity has resulted in an excess of dreck. She is a sucker for pretty prose (she majored in English, after all) and mythological themes.

To find out more about the Carlisle Lake Field guide, click HERE.
About the Lake
We, the nonprofit organization known Onalaska Alliance (OA) own Carlisle Lake and its surrounding property of 72 acres. We have plans to provide recreational, educational and historical opportunities for our community.
Onalaska High School aquaculture class uses Carlisle Lake to raise fish in partnership with Department of Fish and Wildlife. This is a great opportunity for students to get hands on learning, and give them a skill they can take to the work force. For more information about this program, contact Kevin Hoffman khoffman@onysd.wednet.edu
Onalaska Middle School students conduct water quality testing and monitor the entrance of the lake's inlet creek. Onalaska Student have planted over 1,200 trees around the lake, and youth from the Juvenile Justice Center's work crew have worked had to clear brush and invasive species from the shoreline of Carlisle Lake. These are just a few of the wonderful things that are happening at the lake thanks to the involvement of our community members.
Onalaska Alliance also partners with the Alpha Better Bits 4-H group to create a playground. Swings have been installed for community and family use. Watch for other improvements to this area, as fundraising is ongoing.
As we look ahead, we have some long-term goals that will help improve our lake property for the benefit of our community members. Some of the projects are already underway!
Community partnerships are the key to reaching these goals and making the Carlisle Lake property a beautiful, family-friendly park that we can all enjoy and be proud of.

The one mile trail around Carlisle Lake is maintained by community volunteers. This past year though, we had Roy Elliot, of Elliot Construction, and his crew widen the east side of the trail. Thanks the the hard work they put in, we can all enjoy easier access to the lake and more space for running or walking.
Day Use Area
The Onalaska Alliance is working tirelessly to create a beautiful, functional Day Use area. Future plans include more playground equipment, horseshoe pits, picnic tables and a covered shelter. Stay tuned!
Did you know the Lake used to be a mill pond? Here's a little history for you...
According to a Chronicle report given in the Lewis County Advocate in march 1936 the development and progress of Onalaska grew steadily with the Carlisle Lumber Company from 1914 until 1928.
It began to taper off after that time because of the worldwide depression.
There had been 425 people employed in the logging operations alone, which it was estimated directly furnished a livelihood to over 1,500 people.
And even when the lumber business was at its worst in 1931, and for many months following, the operation of the mill continued, supplying work for many employees while hundreds of sawmills all over the country were closed.
This website is funded in part by grants from the Lewis County Lodging Tax Advisory Committee, Twin Star Credit Union and the Onalaska Alliance, and it is maintained by community volunteers. We'd like to say thank you to everyone involved. So, "Thanks! We couldn't do this without you."

This was our second time working with Summit – they ran a customized version of "some assembly required" for 150 of our staff. Mary walked us through the planning stage. She listened to our ideas for the activity and concerns for the day and worked with us to put together an event that exceeded our expectations and addressed all of our needs. The event was well organized and executed in seamless fashion. Every member of their team was friendly, approachable and encouraging to staff. Our evaluations only had good things to say about the event and our employees still talk about how fun the experience was. Summit Team Building are experts in delivering fun and innovative team building activities.
Summit Team Building provided a fun and innovative learning environment with their "Lights-Camera-Action" seminar. It was very interactive and hands-on while driving the principles of teamwork and leadership at the same time.
We were impressed by Summit's efforts to customize their program to meet our team's needs. The facilitators and activities challenged people to leave their comfort zone. Everyone had a great time and commented on how much fun they had.
I would like to thank [Summit and their] crew for a great afternoon. The program was well organized, on time and most importantly, a lot of fun. Our staff learned how to communicate better with co-workers and had fun doing it. We will certainly call on your organization again.

We challenged Summit Team Building to develop a highly interactive, energizing team building event to kick off a national sales meeting. Simply put, it was a big hit!

METS NAME BRODIE VAN WAGENEN GENERAL MANAGER
October 29, 2018 Comment Off 20 Views
FLUSHING, N.Y., October 29, 2018 – The New York Mets announced today that the club has named Brodie Van Wagenen the club's 13th General Manager in franchise history. He will be introduced at a press conference tomorrow at 2:30 p.m. at Citi Field.
Van Wagenen, 44, co-founded the baseball division of CAA Sports in 2006 where he served as the co-head of CAA Baseball. In 2017, he was just one of three agents named on USA Today's Top 100 "Most Powerful People in MLB."
"Brodie is an extremely knowledgeable, creative, progressive and collaborative leader, who I'm confident will lead us toward sustainable success," Mets COO Jeff Wilpon said. "I'm very excited for our fans to hear and see the direction Brodie outlined for us."
"Brodie showed us he is a progressive thinker, who is prepared for this role and has great baseball acumen," Mets Chairman of the Board & CEO Fred Wilpon said. "Jeff brought forward an array of candidates and we all agreed that Brodie's high character, blend of analytics, scouting and development ideas illustrate why he will be successful in this role."
Van Wagenen worked for IMG as an agent from 2001 until joining CAA. He began his professional career with Athlete Direct, a tech startup company that provided online business sites for athletes. Van Wagenen attended Stanford University on a baseball scholarship as an outfielder. He played for the Cardinal in 1993 and 1994 where he was teammates with current Astros manager A.J. Hinch.
"I'm beyond excited and motivated to take on this new challenge," Van Wagenen said. "I want to thank Fred and Jeff for believing in my vision and abilities. I look forward to beginning the progress of getting the Mets to contend for a championship year after year."
Van Wagnen, a native of California and his wife, Molly, have three children and reside in Connecticut. Molly was the captain of Stanford's women's swimming and diving team from 1992-1995 and her stepfather was the late astronaut Neil Armstrong.

The inaugural World Takaful Conference: Asia Leaders Summit (WTC: ALS 2012), which was held on the 13th of June 2012 in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia, saw more than 100 senior executive industry leaders in the regional Takaful industry engage in critical discussions on strategies for competing for growth in an increasingly competitive Asian Takaful market.
Fresh thinking and new research insights inform the foundation of this unique gathering of industry leaders, with an innovative structure of interactive sessions based on issues emerging from recently released new and original research reports at WTC: Global in Dubai. Research reports include new insights from the Milliman Global Family Takaful Report 2013, and findings from the World Islamic Insurance Directory 2013 developed by Takaful Re and Middle East Insurance Review, together with new research work led by Milliman on the Pension Takaful market. Ernst & Young will also address the strategic landscape of the Takaful industry based on findings from their groundbreaking World Takaful Report.
Given the exciting opportunities outlined for the Takaful industry in Asia, the World Takaful Conference: Asia Leaders Summit (WTC ALS 2013), through its unique format backed by original research insights and industry analysis, will gather Senior Executive Leaders in the Asian Takaful industry in a focused environment to discuss and debate the way forward for the regional Takaful industry.
The Malaysian Takaful industry has experienced rapid growth and transformation since its inception 20 years ago. It has grown from an industry comprising of a single player with limited basic products to become a viable industry that has been integrated into the mainstream financial system. According to a recent report by Bank Negara, the Takaful industry experienced a compound average growth rate of 27 percent in terms of net contributions between 2005 and 2010. Given the large untapped market that still exists with only 54 percent of the population having a life insurance or Family Takaful policy, the Takaful industry in Malaysia is poised to benefit in the years ahead on the back of steady demand.
As indicated in the Ernst & Young World Takaful Report 2012, Indonesia is rapidly emerging as an important Takaful market. Indonesia, a country with the largest Muslim population in the world, certainly holds significant growth opportunity for Takaful players given the fact that Indonesia still maintains a low insurance penetration rate of less than 2%. Recognizing this potential, local regulators have implemented several guidelines to ensure stable and profitable growth in the Indonesian Takaful market.
Similarly Brunei, the nation with the 2nd highest per capita income in the Muslim world, is looking to expand the market share of its Takaful industry, stepping up efforts to promote Takaful products and increase the range of Shari'ah-compliant offerings.
The Ernst & Young World Takaful Report 2012 noted that Indonesia and Brunei, together with Malaysia accounts for US$ 2 billion in gross Takaful contributions.
Recent reports published by global strategic advisory and professional services firm Ernst & Young noted that the Takaful industry has now obtained significant market share versus conventional insurance in most GCC countries as well as South East Asian markets. Though there are a number of drivers behind this growth, the one that is becoming increasingly important is regulatory support through appropriate amendments in legislature to provide a level playing field with conventional insurance companies. Reports from Ernst & Young also indicate that though operational efficiency still remains a key focus for the global Takaful industry, it is also essential to introduce greater standardization in regulatory frameworks across jurisdictions as standardization will enhance clarity around Takaful, its business models and its unique selling proposition, hence allowing the industry to strive towards its true growth potential.
The Global Family Takaful Report 2013 - The Global Family Takaful Report is developed by Milliman based on original research into the performance of Family Takaful offerings, the future direction of the market and new opportunities for the growth of Family Takaful across key international jurisdictions.
The Milliman Global Family Takaful Report 2013 provides an update of the overall market trends, an insight into the developing Indonesian market, which has witnessed significant growth in Family Takaful during recent years, and a focus on distribution in key Takaful markets in the Middle East and South East Asia.
In addition to discussing the findings of the Global Family Takaful Report 2013 and its implications for the Family Takaful market in Asia, Milliman will also be presenting a special research paper on Pension Takaful in Asia and its potential for growth.
The World Islamic Insurance Directory (WIID) 2013 - The World Islamic Insurance Directory (WIID) is a unique reference source for the global Takaful industry to record the growth and development of Islamic insurance institutions. The WIID 2013 is the 7th annual update provides a snapshot on the global Takaful scene, with an insight to financial and management data of Takaful and Re-Takaful operators in key markets.
This innovative and interactive high-level Summit builds on the successful 8 years of history of the World Takaful Conference, which gathers more than 400 senior executive leaders from across the world in Dubai each year. The format of WTC: ALS uniquely utilizes the latest research from the various original research reports, including the Global Family Takaful Report 2013 and the World Islamic Insurance Directory (WIID) 2013, launched at the 8th Annual World Takaful Conference: Global Summit (WTC 2013) in Dubai. To be held on the 18th of June 2013 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia under the theme "Competing for Growth & Profitability: Fresh Thinking & New Research Insights for Takaful Players in Asia", WTC ALS 2013, will channel the critical findings from these unique research-based reports and will outline the big picture industry changing scenarios and seek to tackle the critical issues facing the Takaful industry in Asia.
You can see at a glance interesting updates, early bird offers, new speakers and good news stories.

Kim Min-hee became the first Korean to win the Silver Bear for Best Actress for director Hong Sang-soo's movie On the Beach at Night Alone at the 67th Berlin Film Festival. The movie describes the struggles of actress Young-hee after she falls in love with a married filmmaker. However, Kim received the cold shoulder from the Korean public. She became a subject of gossip as her winning the prestigious award dragged her private life into the spotlight again. Kim fell in love with the 55-year-old Hong, who filed for divorce after their inappropriate relationship was made public.
According to Dispatch, Hong's wife knew about their illicit relationship when she saw her husband's film Right Now, Wrong Then, starring Kim Min-hee, that the story contained his feelings for the actress. However, she was said to have suppressed her suspicions.
Netizens' reactions:
"It's like they live in a drama and never know what they're doing. They hurt the people around them. I hope there's no one around me who is like them. They are disgusting," in response to online news about Kim winning the award.
"They insist they are in love. But I think they are in a nasty relationship in the name of love because what they do hurts Hong's wife and daughter. If there's anybody who is suffering because of others' love, then that is not love. Do not try to justify your nasty extramarital affairs in the name of love."
"Congratulations on your winning the award. You won the award because of your extramarital relationship with another woman's husband. Once you return to Korea, I hope you can lecture about your extramarital affair to other women to see how they react."
"Kim and Hong are adults and they can make their own decisions. Let them decide about their future."
Grass Movie
filmmakermagazine.com
Grass (풀잎들) is a South Korean drama film written, produced, and directed by Hong Sang-soo. It was released on October 25th, 2018. The film's main cast is starring Kim Min-hee, Jung Jin-young, and Gi Ju-bong. The duration of the film is 66 minutes. The story of Grass is about a patron of a Seoul café who observes her fellow customers as they go about their days, drawing inspiration from their conversations for her writing. She didn't expect to find such a place as a coffeehouse in down on alley. Opposite the coffeehouse, the owner of a small grocery has planted various kinds of vegetables that sprout up inside large rubber basins. As time passes, the people sitting at different tables grow familiar with each other and start to mix. One woman observes the others and writes down her thoughts. Even as the night grows late, they all remain in the coffeehouse.
The film premiered at the 68th Berlin International Film Festival on February 16th, 2018. In early October 2018, the film was screened in the Korean Cinema Today – Panorama program at the 23rd Busan International Film Festival. The film won the nomination of Best Supporting Actress at the 2019 6th Wildflower Film Awards. The film also marks the sixth collaboration between actress Kim Min-hee and director Hong Sang-soo.
Let's take a look at the Grass trailer!
Dating Confirmed
At the Seoul premiere of On the Beach at Night Alone in March 2017, Kim and Hong openly admitted their affair. Hong Sang-soo publicly admitted to being in a relationship with actress Kim Min-hee for the first time since media speculations on their relationship emerged last June. Hong said, "I don't know if this is the right place to unveil this, but we're in love. We truly love each other in our own way. At first, I thought I had no reason to tell this… This is our private matter. We're seeing each other and love each other with all our hearts. We'll humbly accept everything — situations ahead of us and what will come."
This marks their first public appearance together in Korea since news of their affair broke after Hong filmed his 2015 movie Right Now, Wrong Then with the actress. The two were seen wearing the same ring on the same ring finger of their right hand on Monday as they attended the Berlin festival.

Everything About Itzy's Debut and How They Nearly Quit


Bangladesh Test Captain and ODI Vice Captain Shakib Al Hasan will be unable to go on tour to New Zealand because of a finger injury suffered during the Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) final.
Shakib was at bat for only five deliveries during Friday's game when disaster struck. An attempted pull shot on a short delivery by Thisara Perera in the 11th over struck the Dhaka Dynamites captain on the gloves and injured the ring finger of his left hand.
He was dismissed by the first ball of the next over. A scan after the match found he had fractured the finger. BCB chief sports physician Debashis Chowdhury said in a statement that the injury will keep Shakib off the field for at least three weeks.
Shakib was to leave Dhaka for New Zealand on Saturday night. Bangladesh's first ODI against the Kiwis is scheduled for next Wednesday. The three-match ODI series is to end Feb 20.
The first Test match is scheduled for Feb 28, while the second is on Mar 18. According to the physician, Shakib may only be able to return for the third and final Test on Mar 16.
Shakib had also suffered a bad finger injury last January during a tri-nation series final against Sri Lanka. He had missed the Test and ODI series against Sri Lanka on home soil and the first part of the Nidahas Trophy tournament in Sri Lanka.
He struggled with the injury during the Asia Cup in September and had to return home from the United Arab Emirates before the final of the tournament. He also missed the series against Zimbabwe at home.
Tamim Iqbal, Mohammad Saifuddin and Rubel Hossain, all of whom played the BPL final, will join Bangladesh ODI Captain Mashrafe Bin Mortaza on the flight to New Zealand on Saturday night.
Pacer Taskin Ahmed was also ruled out of the New Zealand tour after he tore a ligament during a BPL match. Shafiul Islam will take his place in the ODI series. Taskin will be replaced by debutant Ebadat Hossain for the Tests.

What is Industrial Real Estate: 8 Types of Properties
When most people think of commercial real estate, their minds gravitate toward the types of properties they're most familiar with: offices (where they work) and retail (where they shop). They're usually not thinking of the industrial real estate where the goods they use are made and shipped from.
But commercial real estate professionals know better than to underestimate the importance of the industrial space. While the deals for these properties may not be as eye-poppingly rich as those for premier office and retail space, industrial tends to be a more stable, long-term investment for owners and a consistently in-demand property type for brokers. However, anyone who wants to get involved with industrial real estate needs to be an expert.
The foundation of that knowledge always starts with an understanding of the basics. Here's our rundown of the eight most common types of industrial real estate.
The word "manufacturing" evokes images of giant factories churning out products. And yes, that's true on a basic level. Manufacturing sites are where goods are produced and assembled, and according to NAIOP, they tend to be less than 20% office space, have loading docks for trucks, and clear heights of at least 10 feet. But that leaves plenty of room for variation, as these properties change a lot based on their purpose. Here are the two most common buckets:
1. Heavy manufacturing
These giant plants tend to make heavy-duty goods and materials. They usually have tens or even hundreds of thousands of square feet in usable space, along with powerful pieces of equipment, three-phase electrical power, and plenty of space for trucks to load up product. The exact machinery inside is usually customized to the end user, so heavy manufacturing plants need to be renovated when they take on new owners or tenants. Consider Austral USA, the massive shipbuilding facility in Mobile, AL. If someone else wanted to take over that factory and use it to build, say, cars, they'd need to change up the equipment accordingly.
2. Light assembly
These spaces tend to be a lot smaller and simpler than their heavy counterparts. That's because they're usually where products are assembled from smaller parts, stored, and eventually shipped off to be sold to consumers. As such, they can much more easily be reconfigured for different tenants.
While manufacturing sites are where products are made, these properties are all about how products are moved around and ultimately sent to an end user. Size can vary wildly depending on the type of property, but these facilities tend to be around 20% office space at most. Here are three common types:
3. Distribution warehouse
As the name implies, these warehouses are primarily used to ship goods, which means location matters. If you want to quickly get your products anywhere in the country, you need to be toward the middle of the country, preferably near an airport. But the size of the occupying company can change that, and impact design as well. For example, Amazon occupies several custom-built, high-tech fulfillment centers around the country (hence why it offers same-day delivery in so many markets), some of which are as bigger than 1 million square feet.
4. General purpose warehouses
These warehouses are more geared toward storage than distribution. That difference can play out in several ways. For example, most general purpose warehouses have a lower door to square footage ratio, since products aren't being moved in and out as often. It also means that location matters less than what's being stored there, which is what drives most of the variation in these spaces. For instance, one subset of general purpose warehouses is cold storage facilities, which are equipped with freezers and generally used to store perishable food items.
5. Truck terminal
On the other end of the spectrum from general purpose warehouses are truck terminals, which are entirely devoted to transportation. They're simply intermediate sites where goods are loaded from one truck to another, and have little to no storage space.
Flex properties are designed to give tenants flexibility in usage, and are generally made up of at least 30% office space. However, there are also more specialized types of flex buildings that serve more specific purposes for industrial tenants:
6. R&D
R&D refers to research and development, the process by which companies create new products and improve existing ones. R&D properties vary a lot depending on the tenant and what they'll be using the space for. For example, Google's soon-to-open self-driving car project facility will be 53,000 square feet, feature wide open, indoor spaces to test self-driving cars away from prying eyes, and be located near Detroit, which is home to some of the country's best auto talent. The property specifications fit the use case perfectly.
7. Data Center
Data centers are where companies put the equipment that holds their data, keep their internet up and running, and make cloud storage possible. They average about 100,000 square feet but can get much bigger, the world's largest being a 6.3 million square foot facility in Langfang, China. The reason that size varies so much is that lots of companies choose to lease space in third party data centers.
8. Showrooms
Showrooms typically have a mix of space devoted to offices, warehousing, and most importantly, showrooms. Typically, more than half of the space is devoted to showcasing and selling products. The most familiar example to most people would be a car dealership, but there are several other kinds of businesses that need showroom space.
Industrial Real Estate: Function Over Form
This list is by no means comprehensive. There are several other types of industrial space, not to mention other characteristics that differentiate the types we cover here. But these are the most common types, and they illustrate a key point about industrial real estate: The spaces need to be tailored to specific goals for different kinds of businesses.

Gaido Calls for "Time-Out" and Halt to Overdevelopment
While Mary Ann Gaido stands alone among the five Mayoral candidates in calling for a "time-out" to halt overdevelopment, she clearly is tapping into widespread voter resentment. The plain fact is that Irvine residents are simply fed up with horrible traffic, overcrowded schools, and the stress that comes from what Gaido calls "out-of-control" growth and development.
Her remedy? Gaido says, "If I am elected Mayor, I pledge that at the first City Council meeting, I will introduce a Comprehensive Growth and Traffic Control Ordinance — to take a 'time-out' from overdevelopment by strictly limiting the number of new residential building permits issued by the City, and by requiring voter approval before any major new residential project can move forward."
When challenged by other candidates, Gaido calmly points out that from time to time the City has deliberately slowed down growth and development, or even halted it altogether. In 1972, the very first Irvine City Council ordered a 90-day "freeze" on development so that the newly established Council could begin to formulate plans and strategies to grow the City of Irvine, but at a reasonable pace, providing for adequate roads and infrastructure first.
And in the 1980s, the City Council imposed an informal moratorium on development — saying NO to developers — until a comprehensive Open Space Preservation Plan could be worked out with the Irvine Company, which finally happened in 1988; voters approved a detailed ballot measure setting aside nearly 16,000 acres of open space and wilderness areas for permanent preservation.
Speaking to the traffic issue, Gaido said she has a detailed traffic control plan that relies heavily on developing our own internal transit system — dramatically expanding our fleet of iShuttle buses. But, she noted: "Those are longer-range plans. The truth of the matter is that traffic control begins with growth control. And, we'll need a new Mayor and new City Council to immediately adopt certain growth-control measures."
City Council candidate Melissa Fox, who ran as part of a team with Gaido in 2014, is running an allied campaign once again. The two share views on the need for a new Mayor and Council majority to get to work on growth and traffic control. "But," says Fox, "first things first — Mary Ann and I have to get elected on November 8th!"

I love using high-quality children's literature to show them how children around the world live with their families, go to school, and enjoy playing with their friends. Educators and parents can use literature to increase cultural awareness because young children are able to digest new concepts when the information is presented in story form (see journal articles below).
Here are a few books about life in Ethiopia, from children's perspectives. When I purchased these books, I was looking to enhance my son's knowledge of his birth country and encourage a positive self-concept of his cultural heritage, without portraying negative stereotypes. We enjoyed the photographs and information presented so much that we decided to purchase extra copies to give to our children's school, to enrich their library.
The text and photographs for E is for Ethiopia are done by Ashenafi Gudeta, Ataklti Mulu, Betelhem Abate, Dama Borum, 4 young photographers in Ethiopia whose work is supported by the UK aid agency "Catholic Agency for Overseas Development" (CAFOD). Their vibrant and colorful photos were taken around the country of daily life, and celebrates the rich culture and beautiful people of Ethiopia. The book presents a good balance between city life and the countryside, shows children and families in a wide variety of situations and packs in a myriad of details onto each page. This book is great to read aloud and discuss with all ages of kids, but also is perfect for kids to pour over by themselves: every time we read it my kids point out a new discovery in one of the brilliant photographs, which never cease to interest them. I highly recommend this book for all ages for its content and amazing photographs. This books gives us a tremendous learning opportunity about the beautiful country of Ethiopia.
The second book I adore is Tsion's Life, by Stacy Bellward. This book provides readers with a window into the life of a young girl named Tsion (SEE-yon), who lives in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Using an Amharic word on each page, simple descriptions and detailed photographs, she shares her daily life and activities. In a subtle way, readers will learn about cultural values of people who live in Ethiopia, such as respect for elders, importance of family, and generosity towards others. Children will notice that in many ways, Tsion is like them: she goes to school with her friends, goes to church, and has dinner with her family. They will also notice traditions that may be new to them and lifestyle differences, that make every family unique.
Only a Pigeon, by Jane Kurtz. Jane Kurtz has written several books about Ethiopia. This particular one is great for ages 4-10. Ondu-ahlem is a little boy who owns pigeons, and takes care so that the mongoose don't get them. He loves his favorite bird, Chinkay. One day, Chinkay wins a race, and the young Ethiopian boy sets the bird free. I love that this story is set in an urban city (Addis Ababa) during contemporary times.
Finally- don't miss The Best Beekeeper of Lalibela , written by award-winning author Cristina Kessler. I review it here. It's a super story about girl power 🙂 .
All of these books focus on experiences specific to Ethiopia, a country in the Horn of Africa. When you read them, it is important for kids to distinguish that Africa is a continent, not a country. This might sounds obvious, but so often I see geography lessons and books teaching about "Mexico, India, Russia, and Africa," for example. I believe it is important to be consistent (either use Asian and African, or say Chinese and Ethiopian), and hesitate from making blanket statements about an entire continent. The 50+ African countries are as diverse as the countries making up Latin America or Europe or Asia, with their own distinct languages, traditions, cultures, and people. By choosing a specific country/region and learning about it in more detail, you will show your students and children that the vague stereotypes of a nondescript "Africa" are inaccurate, and cause more harm than good.

I agree that the photographs are amazing! They may be from a child's perspective, but they are great books for anyone.


Telling your character's story is the heart of the game in Call to Adventure from Brotherwise Games. Part choices you make and part luck of the draw (literally), you and your fellow players might not know what the future holds on your character's journey, but you'll have a blast getting there.
Brotherwise Games, maker of Boss Fight, brings you this competitive hero-building game for two to four players–or you can choose to play solo or cooperatively. It's your story, after all! Players have three acts to craft their characters by drawing cards that determine traits, abilities, pivotal moments in their history, and more. As they face challenges by casting runes to tell their tales, players earn Destiny Points. The hero (or anti-hero) at the end of the game with most Destiny Points wins.
The game begins by choosing your Origin, Motivation, and Destiny by drawing two cards in each category and picking one of each. Next, on their turn players choose to gain trait cards or tackle the challenge cards on the table, throwing runes instead of throwing dice to determine their successes and failures.
The ultimate goal of Call to Adventure is to tell your character's Story—and make it a good one. Each player will have their own epic tale to tell, but it's the one that garners the most Destiny Points who's declared the winner. Drawing cards and making your choices each time you and your friends play guarantees that the same story will never be told twice, and every game will be its own unique experience.
Will your most heroic deed be slaying a dragon, or is it confessing your feelings to your true love? Both take tremendous amounts of courage. And both can win you the game.
If all that isn't enough to entice you, have we mentioned that there are expansions based on the worlds of renowned fantasy authors Patrick Rothfuss and Brandon Sanderson coming later this year?
Call to Adventure is now available to order at your favorite local game store, and you'll also find related accessories like custom card sleeves on the Brotherwise Games website. Will you answer the call on your hero's journey?

With: Pierre Arditi, Sabine Azéma, André Dussollier, Fanny Ardant
Written by: Alain Resnais, based on a play by Henri Bernstein
Directed by: Alain Resnais
Language: French with English subtitles
Mélo (1986)
Alain Resnais directed this quiet little mid-1980s masterpiece from a creaky, all-but-forgotten four-person stage drama from 1929, written by Henri Bernstein. But Resnais films it straight, with no irony or post-modern injections, giving the material respect and adoration.
It opens on a beautiful balcony, overlooking a city night sky. Three people finish up a nice dinner: Pierre Belcroix (Pierre Arditi) is a humble musician living with his wife Romaine (Sabine Azéma). They're entertaining Pierre's former classmate, Marcel Blanc (André Dussollier), who has gone on to musical fame and fortune. They talk and tell stories, and Sabine innocently flirts with Marcel. She visits him the next day to play music and they flirt some more. They end up having a passionate affair. But just as Sabine is about to leave her husband, he falls seriously ill and she feels obligated to stick around. Fanny Ardant plays Sabine's pretty cousin, who falls into a more traditional and caring female role, and is better suited for tending to Pierre's needs.
What's miraculous about Mélo is that the material never grows hysterical and feels blocked in or trapped by the stage. Resnais always knows how to place and move his camera to bring out the emotional center; the crystalline, colorful frame is as much a character as the actors. Moreover, these four skilled thespians all worked with Resnais many times (three of them appear in his newest film, Private Fears in Public Places) and created a high level of trust. More than once, Resnais creates drama simply by focusing on an actor's face during a monologue. Nitpickers might criticize the thinness of Ardant's character, but she serves the drama as well as any of the main characters. The title refers to "melodrama," or drama with music.
DVD Details: Kino Video, under their Kimstim label, has released four 1980s-era Resnais films, starting with the gorgeously restored Mélo. The others are: Life Is a Bed of Roses (1983), Love Unto Death (1984) and I Want to Go Home (1989). Each DVD includes a trailer, plus one featurette. The Mélo DVD comes with a video interview with producer Marin Karmitz.

What's the main functionality of a WordPress cache plugin?
Being compatible with Content Delivery Networks in order to serve assets (images and other files) from other servers (that are often closer to the location of the person loading the website, thus taking less time to download).
These are only a few of the features that are included in a caching plugin. As much as a like working with WordPress, being a developer myself, we all know how notoriously slow it can be sometimes if not optimised properly. Thus, all these caching plugins were developed.
Is it worth paying for a cache plugin when there are other ones out there free of charge?
In the beginning, I thought that this looks like a waste of money and wondered why would someone pay for a cache plugin when there are lots of other ones that can be found for free out there and are very powerful. However, I was thinking with the mind of the developer that likes to download plugins, have the time to play with them, tweak what needs to be tweaked and then happily use them without thinking of the premium options out there.
The plugin went through lots of updates in the past year and came with features that you won't find in other cache plugins including lazy loading, enable/disable caching on specific posts, combine google font requests into one. Besides, the interface is very simple and intuitive to use for the regular user which makes it easier to configure and it's less likely that you will mess up something on your website. I've been using W3 Total Cache on my websites. It's a good plugin, I would recommend it, but it takes you a while to understand it, especially if you're not a developer. Plus, you don't have anyone on one support in case something goes wrong. You need to fix things yourself and since many people pay for convenience, an investment of $39 doesn't seem much to save yourself time and other headaches.
Is WP Rocket's default caching options the best for basic websites?
What would be one reason for investing into this plugin?
Having customer support when you need it. If you're not a developer, it will help you save time and other headaches that other plugins could give you if they are not configured properly. I've regularly received emails and updates about WP Rocket in the past months.
If you're a developer and care about the back-end side of things, I've also checked the quality of code.
What I DO NOT Like: the lack of OOP code (you barely see any). Most of the code is procedural and I believe WordPress developers should focus more on the objected oriented side of things as it would make things easier for future development. Also, some of the functions have fairly common names (e.g. "rocket_init"), which could conflict with other functions name the same in either the theme or in other plugins. It's not that likely, but you never know. It happened to me in the past to believe that I used a unique name, and to found out that it was used in other plugins as well.

Q: Inserting SQL statement into PHP variable Im trying to insert an SQL statment into a variable. The statement contains keywords entered by the user in a search bar. However, for some reason I can keep getting the error "Trying to get the property of non-object". Below is my code:
public function searchTable() {
      $sql = "SELECT grades_eng.Grade, domain_math_eng.Domain, cluster_eng.Cluster, math_standards_eng.Standard FROM ".$this->standardsTable."
              WHERE Standard LIKE '%".$this->keyword." %'
              INNER JOIN grades_eng ON math_standards_eng.Grade_Id = grades_eng.Id
              INNER JOIN domain_math_eng ON math_standards_eng.Domain_Math_Eng_Id = domain_math_eng.Id
              INNER JOIN cluster_eng ON math_standards_eng.Cluster_Eng_Id = cluster_eng.Id";

      $results = $this->conn->query($sql);
      //returns array
      return $results;
      }

The code for the object being used:
$search = new SearchResult($conn, $subject, $keyword);
$queryResults = $search->searchTable();
$search->displayResults($queryResults);

Im confident is my sql query that's causing the error because when I use the following code, it displays results :
$sql = "SELECT * FROM ".$this->standardsTable." WHERE Standard LIKE '%".$this->keyword."%' ";
$results = $this->conn->query($sql);

Im Trying to display the same results but replace the IDs with actual text. The query does work when I run it in MySql.
P.S Still working on learning to use Aliases so I apologize in advance.

A: I just learned that the "Where" keyword was suppose to go towards the end. Lesson learned!
$sql = "SELECT grades_eng.Grade, domain_math_eng.Domain, cluster_eng.Cluster, math_standards_eng.Standard FROM ".$this->standardsTable."
      INNER JOIN grades_eng ON math_standards_eng.Grade_Id = grades_eng.Id
      INNER JOIN domain_math_eng ON math_standards_eng.Domain_Math_Eng_Id = domain_math_eng.Id
      INNER JOIN cluster_eng ON math_standards_eng.Cluster_Eng_Id = cluster_eng.Id
      WHERE Standard LIKE '%".$this->keyword."%' ";
