Top 10 Artisans of The World
Glass Blowing in Murano, Italy
Across the world, artisans have been producing beautiful, practical and culturally significant crafts for many centuries. From the knife makers of Tibet to the luthiers of Madrid, here is a rundown of the top 10 artisans of the world.
Glass Blowers – Murano, Italy
Located just north of Venice is the island of Murano, one of the best places in the world to see the art of glass blowing. Although the island's unique industry may have altered somewhat since its beginnings in the 8th Century (the art form originally developed in the Middle East around 300 BC), it remains a thriving industry. Using a hollow steel tube, the molten glass is pulled from the furnace and rolled into shape on a steel table, known as a marver. Blowing into the pipe, the warm air causes the glass to bubble, at which point it is reworked until the desired shape is achieved. Demonstrations given by Murano's extraordinary craftspeople can be seen year-round.

Knife Makers – Tibet, China
Like many Artisans around the world, the 20th Century saw Tibetan knife makers struggle to maintain their trade. But, with support from the Chinese government and the artists' continued perseverance, Tibet's knife makers are clinging on. Following the teachings of their forefathers, workers reply a variety of materials; copper is often used for the blade, whilst the horns of bulls and antelopes, along with wood and metal are used for the handles. Protecting anyone naive enough to stoke the razor-sharp blades with their fingertips, knives are never without their sheaths. Made from animal hides, wood and horn, the coverings not only provide protection but allow the artists the opportunity to showcase the splendour of their work.

Leather Tanners – Fes, Morocco
Continuing a craft that hasn't changed since the 11th Century, Morocco's leather tanners provide a lasting example of how arts of the past can be maintained in an ever modernising world. Amidst the low-lying buildings of the Moroccan city of Fez, you'd struggle not to be moved by the colour, and indeed odour, of the city's most famous tannery, Chouara. Set out like a giant sheet of honeycomb, the large stone vessels built through the square are filled with scores of colourful liquids, some, such as the cow urine vat, less pleasant than others. And, wading thigh-deep through the liquids are the Artisans. First treated and then stained in natural dyes – such as saffron, henna and cedarwood – the final stage of the process sees the skins thrown onto the surrounding roofs where they are left to dry in the heat of the North Africa sun.

Ikebana Flower Arrangers – Japan
Ikebana is a Japanese art form which brings together both nature and humanity. For most, flower arrangement involves the placement of various different blooms, cut at their stems, into a vase. However, in Ikebana – which translates literally to 'flowers kept alive' – the welfare of the living plant is as integral as the beauty of the final composition. Abiding by a number of rules – materials must be living, colours and shapes pleasing to the eye and, moreover, the displays must have meaning – the artists remain silent during their work, allowing them to enhance their appreciation for nature. Differing from the artisans of many other countries around the world, Ikebana is far from a dying practice; it is taught widely in schools in Japan and is televised regularly for those keen to appreciate it beauty from home.

Flamenco Guitar Luthiers – Madrid, Spain
The beauty of the song that resonates from the strings and body of a flamenco guitar is matched by the artisan behind it. Traditionally made from rosewood, sycamore, cypress and spruce, a flamenco guitar is the result of centuries of fine-tuning, if you'll excuse the pun. From using the right wood and polishing the fretboard to bending the ribs of the inner body, a visit to one of the many guitar making workshops in Madrid, Spain is a great way to see the luthiers at work.

Calligraphers – Pakistan
Calligraphy is the art of designing and producing decorative letting with a pen or brush. The origins of calligraphy, much like many crafts, are difficult to identify, for it was a practice that grew from many corners of the globe, from Europe to East Asia and the Islamic world to the Mayans. Although the art has evolved since its beginnings, it still remains as an important trade in many countries. One of the world's most renowned calligraphers is Khurshid Gohar Galam, from Pakistan. Khurshid Gohar's work, which includes almost 500 different calligraphic styles, is widespread throughout the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, adorning mosques, tombs and many other important buildings.

Rug Makers – Turkey
For centuries, the Turks have been knotting rugs. With variations in climate, society, history and the economy, materials for the craft vary from place to place, from cotton to wool and viscose to silk, the finest of the four threads. Raised on farms in Turkey, the silkworm cocoons are harvested and then soaked in steaming water. Teasing the strands from the cocoons, workers spin the silk onto large wooden wheels, after which it is twisted and then coloured with natural dyes. Unlike many other countries, Turkish rugs are double-knotted, giving them strength and durability. The patterns and symbolism of the rugs are often extremely intricate, making their work all the more impressive.

Jade Lapidaries – Hokitika, New Zealand
Long before the Europeans (or, pākehā) landed, the native Māoris had been fossicking in the river beds of New Zealand's South Island for jade, known to the Māoris as pounamu. Intricately carving the stone into decorative forms, the treasures were passed down through the generations, each with its own meaning and increasing cultural value. When the Dutch and the British arrived, they too established a love for the greenstone, though undoubtedly for different reasons, valuing its strength, durability and beauty. Hokitika, on the west coast of the South Island, was, and still remains, the best place to discover the jade, where demonstrations and workshops now allow you to view and learn about the carvings from the artisan masters.

Azulejo Tile makers – Lisbon, Portugal
Dug up in Southern China, archaeologists determined that the oldest fragments of pottery dated back some 20,000 years. With such a vast timeframe in which to evolve, it's no wonder the world is now steeped with a deep history of ceramic production. One such example is that of the Portuguese Azulejo – delicate, glazed tiles, with such an extensive past that they now embed much of the architecture and decor throughout the country. Uniting the tradition of the Azulejos with today's modern structures, cities such as Lisbon provide a great opportunity to see the work of present-day tile makers.

Origami – Japan
Paper folding has been an art form long practice by many civilizations around the world, from Europe to Asia. Perhaps the most famous of these is the craft of origami in Japan. Comprising the arts, science and mathematics, this longstanding tradition, still practised today, held value in many areas of the Japanese society – from the iconic paper crane, worn as a fashion piece, to the representation of a goldstone, burnt during a funeral.

Hey, isn't this exactly what you would expect when you elect a Chicago thug who surrounds himself with other thugs he's appointed to high positions within his administration? [b]EXCLUSIVE: Career lawyers overruled on voting case Black Panthers had wielded weapons, blocked polls By Jerry Seper Friday, May 29, 2009[/b] [IMG]http://media.washingtontimes.com/media/img/photos/2009/05/29/20090528-220917-pic-924085510_r350x200.jpg?0babd24c675f3097b9d1ff106ec8653055db7939[/IMG] [IMG]http://media.washingtontimes.com/media/img/photos/2009/05/29/20090528-220917-pic-603250881_r350x200.jpg?0babd24c675f3097b9d1ff106ec8653055db7939[/IMG] Justice Department political appointees overruled career lawyers and ended a civil complaint accusing three members of the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense of wielding a nightstick and intimidating voters at a Philadelphia polling place last Election Day, according to documents and interviews. The incident - which gained national attention when it was captured on videotape and distributed on YouTube - had prompted the government to sue the men, saying they violated the 1965 Voting Rights Act by scaring would-be voters with the weapon, racial slurs and military-style uniforms. Career lawyers pursued the case for months, including obtaining an affidavit from a prominent 1960s civil rights activist who witnessed the confrontation and described it as "the most blatant form of voter intimidation" that he had seen, even during the voting rights crisis in Mississippi a half-century ago. The lawyers also had ascertained that one of the three men had gained access to the polling place by securing a credential as a Democratic poll watcher, according to interviews and documents reviewed by The Washington Times. The career Justice lawyers were on the verge of securing sanctions against the men earlier this month when their superiors ordered them to reverse course, according to interviews and documents. The court had already entered a default judgment against the men on April 20. A Justice Department spokesman on Thursday confirmed that the agency had dropped the case, dismissing two of the men from the lawsuit with no penalty and winning an order against the third man that simply prohibits him from bringing a weapon to a polling place in future elections. The department was "successful in obtaining an injunction that prohibits the defendant who brandished a weapon outside a Philadelphia polling place from doing so again," spokesman Alejandro Miyar said. "Claims were dismissed against the other defendants based on a careful assessment of the facts and the law." Mr. Miyar declined to elaborate about any internal dispute between career and political officials, saying only that the department is "committed to the vigorous prosecution of those who intimidate, threaten or coerce anyone exercising his or her sacred right to vote." Court records reviewed by The Times show that career Justice lawyers were seeking a default judgment and penalties against the three men as recently as May 5, before abruptly ending their pursuit 10 days later. People directly familiar with the case, who spoke only on the condition of anonymity because of fear of retribution, said career lawyers in two separate Justice offices had recommended proceeding to default judgment before political superiors overruled them. Tensions between career lawyers and political appointees inside the Justice Department have been a sensitive matter since allegations surfaced during the Bush administration that higher-ups had ignored or reversed staff lawyers and that some U.S. attorneys had been removed or selected for political reasons. During his January confirmation hearings, Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. said that during his lengthy Justice Department tenure, the career lawyers were "my teachers, my colleagues and my friends" and described them as the "backbone" of the department. "If I am confirmed as attorney general, I will listen to them, respect them and make them proud of the vital goals we will pursue together," he said. Justice officials declined to say whether Mr. Holder or other senior Justice officials became involved in the case, saying they don't discuss internal deliberations. The civil suit filed Jan. 7 identified the three men as members of the Panthers and said they wore military-style uniforms, black berets, combat boots, battle-dress pants, black jackets with military-style insignias and were armed with "a dangerous weapon"and used racial slurs and insults to scare would-be voters and those there to assist them at the Philadelphia polling location on Nov. 4. The complaint said the three men engaged in "coercion, threats and intimidation, ... racial threats and insults, ... menacing and intimidating gestures, ... and movements directed at individuals who were present to vote." It said that unless prohibited by court sanctions, they would "continued to violate ... the Voting Rights Act by continuing to direct intimidation, threats and coercion at voters and potential voters, by again deploying uniformed and armed members at the entrance to polling locations in future elections, both in Philadelphia and throughout the country." To support its evidence, the government had secured an affidavit from Bartle Bull, a longtime civil rights activist and former aide to Sen. Robert F. Kennedy's 1968 presidential campaign. Mr. Bull said in a sworn statement dated April 7 that he was serving in November as a credentialed poll watcher in Philadelphia when he saw the three uniformed Panthers confront and intimidate voters with a nightstick. Inexplicably, the government did not enter the affidavit in the court case, according to the files. "In my opinion, the men created an intimidating presence at the entrance to a poll," he declared. "In all my experience in politics, in civil rights litigation and in my efforts in the 1960s to secure the right to vote in Mississippi ... I have never encountered or heard of another instance in the United States where armed and uniformed men blocked the entrance to a polling location." Mr. Bull said the "clear purpose" of what the Panthers were doing was to "intimidate voters with whom they did not agree." He also said he overheard one of the men tell a white poll watcher: "You are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker." He called their conduct an "outrageous affront to American democracy and the rights of voters to participate in an election without fear." He said it was a "racially motivated effort to limit both poll watchers aiding voters, as well as voters with whom the men did not agree." The three men named in the complaint - New Black Panther Chairman Malik Zulu Shabazz, Minister King Samir Shabazz and Jerry Jackson - refused to appear in court to answer the accusations over a near-five month period, court records said. Justice Department Voting Rights Section Attorney J. Christian Adams complained in one court filing about the defendants' failure to appear or to file any pleadings in the case, arguing that Mr. Jackson was "not an infant, nor is he an incompetent person as he appears capable of managing his own affairs, nor is he in the military service of the United States." Court records show that as late as May 5, the Justice Department was still considering an order by U.S. District Judge Stewart Dalzell in Philadelphia to seek judgments, or sanctions, against the three Panthers because of their failure to appear. But 10 days later, the department reversed itself and filed a notice of voluntary dismissal from the complaint for Malik Zulu Shabazz and Mr. Jackson. That same day, the department asked for the default judgment against King Samir Shabazz, but limited the penalty to an order that he not display a "weapon within 100 feet of any open polling location on any election day in the city of Philadelphia" until Nov. 15, 2012. Malik Zulu Shabazz is a Washington, D.C., resident. Mr. Jackson was an elected member of Philadelphia's 14th Ward Democratic Committee, and was credentialed to be at the polling place last Nov. 4 as an official Democratic Party polling observer, according to the Philadelphia City Commissioner's Office. Efforts to reach the Panthers were unsuccessful. A telephone number listed on the New Black Panthers Web site had been disconnected. The complaint said that the three men were deployed at the entrance to a Philadelphia polling location wearing the uniform of the New Black Panther Party and that King Samir Shabazz repeatedly brandished a police-style nightstick with a contoured grip and wrist lanyard. According to the complaint, Malik Zulu Shabazz, a Howard University Law School graduate, said the placement of King Samir Shabazz and Mr. Jackson in Philadelphia was part of a nationwide effort to deploy New Black Panther Party members at polling locations on Election Day. The New Black Panther Party reportedly has 27 chapters operating across the United States, Britain, the Caribbean and Africa. Its Web page said it has become "a great witness to the validity of the works of the original Black Panther Party," which was founded in 1966 in Oakland, Calif.

How long has Rainbow been in business?
Rainbow Play Systems has been building the finest residential playsets since 1985. In that time, they've built and shipped more than 500,000 playsets around the world! Rainbow of the Heartland has been Kansas' and Iowa's Playground Headquarters since 1994.
Do you offer installation for your playsets?
Yes, we offer complete delivery and installation by our own experienced, professional installation team, not subcontractors. Like a NASCAR pit crew, our team has years of experience installing Rainbow Playsets, typically completing an installation in just 3-6 hours!
Will you install a Rainbow Playset outside the Des Moines and Olathe metro area?
We will happily install a Rainbow Playset anywhere in Iowa, Kansas and Missouri. However, mileage charges may apply for outlying areas. You can inquire at the time you place your order.
What type of maintenance is required for our playset?
We recommend re-sealing your playset every 12-18 Months or as needed with Rainbow sealer to keep it looking new. However, many factors, such as weather, harsh climate conditions, and use, may determine how often you reseal your playset.
With normal use, some of the bolts may loosen over time. It's important to check and tighten all nuts and bolts as needed. The playset's through-bolt construction allows you to tighten these bolts as often as necessary without risking the structural integrity of your playset.
We also recommend cleaning tarps, slides, swings, ladder rungs and other accessories a few times a year to prevent discoloration of the plastic, metal, or vinyl. Rainbow offers services to assist you with any of these maintenance tasks, including maintenance checks and re-sealing your playset. Simply call us for a quote. We're happy to help!
Does Rainbow warranty their products?
Rainbow stands behind our products. We offer the best warranty in the business--a Lifetime Warranty on most of the components on our Full-Size sets. For more information, refer to our maintenance and warranty section for complete coverage provided for each playset series.
What do you typically put underneath the playset?
We offer 100% recycled rubber mulch and rubber timbers. We also offer rubber pads for beneath swings and slides to prevent bare spots and mud holes. Rainbow recommends that the ground cover (mulch, rubber mulch, etc.) be installed after the playset is installed. See our section on rubber mulch, timbers, and pads.
I have a small yard. Can I still purchase a Rainbow Playset?
Yes, Rainbow makes a playset to fit every yard and budget. Measure your area and give us a call. We'll be happy to help. We'll even come to your house (in the metro area) and take a look at your yard to find the best playset for your space, budget, and family.
I have an un-level yard. Can I still purchase a Rainbow playset?
Residential yards come in all shapes, sizes and soils and one playset's configuration is not going to work in every backyard. Rainbow has developed an exclusive line of accessories and playset options specifically tailored for un-level, hard-to-fit backyards.
What happens if we move? Can we take our playset with us?
Yes! Rainbow Playsets are built to be taken down, moved, and reassembled. Unlike cheaper playsets that utilize screws to attach key structural components, Rainbows are built with big, through-bolt construction. This ensures that any time a Rainbow is moved, it can be reassembled as tight and sturdy as the first time it was assembled. If you are moving out of the area, we can take your playset down for you. Chances are there will be a Rainbow dealer close by to re-assemble it for you at your new home.
Yes, we offer financing. Give us a call to see what plans are currently being offered.
Why should we buy Rainbow?
Did you find the answers you were looking for? We sure hope so, but if you still have questions we didn't address here, we invite you to contact us or stop by the showroom.

If you want the whole poem, it's by Thomas Hood. Basically an exhaustive list of things that are not much in evidence in the early winter.
The Winter flock of up to 60 Black-headed Gulls are still regular on Froebel playing field, a few Herring Gulls join them sometimes but are often absent altogether. The ironically much less common Common Gulls are more regular, 4 or 5 are present almost every morning and occasionally take a dip on the lake.
Very similar to Herring Gull but smaller, with 'gentler'features, the Common Gull is rare here in the Summer. It migrates further than the Black-headed Gull which only heads to nearby coasts, UK birds mostly breed around the coasts of Scotland and Ireland. The other gulls we see here don't migrate to any great extent, Herring Gulls are more or less resident and although Black-headed Gulls move to breeding colonies near the coast, the occasional bird can be seen all Summer, (with many going no further than London Wetland Centre).
Two Egyptian Geese seem to be permanently at Digby and another pair have been at Froebel from time to time. Our pair of Swans have been away since the middle of November, but there has been a small influx of Tufted Duck, with around six on Froebel Lake most mornings. They may be some of the Digby ducklings.
Digby Lake has been very quiet, probably due to all the the construction work nearby. Most days there are only the 2 Geese and 1 or 2 Coots and Moorhens there.
A flock of Canada Geese drop in occasionally, maybe they are the birds that bred here last Summer.
The first Redwing of the winter made an appearance on the last day of November.
The Heron is nearly always at Froebel, sometimes even landing on the lawn.
On the other hand the handsome male below clearly shows how blackbirds get their name.
I've not seen either Song or Mistle Thrush in November, even though they're resident and show from time on Campus all year round.
All the thrush species are great singers, the Blackbird having one of the finest of all bird songs, they usually begin to sing in late January or early February. The only bird songs that surpass the Blackbird (IMHO) are the Skylark, which is possible here, a very few still live in Richmond Park and the Nightingale whose astonishing song is highly unlikely to be heard anywhere in the London region (though perhaps a trifle more likely than angels dining at the Ritz, as there have been 3 records of Nightingale in London this century).
The Mistle Thrush (December) and Song Thrush (November) on the other hand both sing in the Winter, like the Blackbird, they breed here and so can get on with the business of establishing a territory.
But the champion of Winter singing birds is officially Britain's favourite bird , never more so than at this time of year. Closely related to the Thrushes, Robins sing throughout the year and are always to be seen around the campus. One bird has a territory right by Lulham car park. Make no mistake, the persistent song of the Robin is more about vicious territorialism than about joy!
Robins will quite literally fight to the death in disputes about real estate. The only time you will ever see 2 or more Robins together is when a pair are together, or a parent is with its young. The exception to this is during extreme winter weather, when sometimes many Robins can be seen in a small area. This probably involves continental birds that have migrated to our milder climate in search of food.
Curiously, we think of the Robin as a friendly bird, as one will often follow a gardener around, hoping to find disturbed worms. Outside of Britain, Robins are much shier birds. We have a long history of treating Robins well perhaps due to folklore, so they have little fear of humans in the UK.

Michael Holter self portrait
American Impressionist Michael Holter is an award-winning artist who works in watercolor and oil who's paintings can be found in private and corporate collections in the US and several foreign countries. Although Michael has been painting most of his life, his work experience spans a wide range of creative challenges. He has been an art teacher, creative director and businessman in both fine art and commercial art. Michael has owned and operated galleries and holds a Bachelor's Degree in Art Education and an MA in Visual Communication.
Michael is a member of the Salmagundi Club, a signature member of The National Watercolor Society, The American Impressionist Society, The Watercolor Honor Society, The Transparent Watercolor Society of America, The Outdoor Painter Society, the Southwestern Watercolor Society, The Missouri Watercolor, The Society of Watercolor Artists and more.
Michael says, "My work is impressionistic. I like to represent people or places and allow the painting to evolve from the structure of what is recognizable. The challenge is to balance the care needed to make the representation interesting… and perhaps believable, with the freedom, looseness and painterly quality that makes painting so unique and expressive."
"I have been influenced by artists such as Charles Reid, Richard Schmid, Burt Silverman, Frank Webb, John Singer Sargent, Ted Nuttall and many others. Even though I have an art degree, most of what I put into practice is self-taught through studying the work of these distinguished artists and much painting."
"My wife, Cyndy, and I grew up in on the wide-open plains of North Dakota and arrived in Plano, TX by way of Minnesota (I can paint a snowy winter landscape with the best of 'em) prior to our east coast years in Virginia. We often travel enjoying the beauty of God's creation.

Doña Ana County is a county located in the southern part of the State of New Mexico of the United States. As of the 2010 U.S. Census, its population was 209,233, which makes it the second-most populated county in New Mexico. Its county seat is Las Cruces, the second-most populous municipality in New Mexico. The county is named for Doña Ana Robledo, who died there in 1680 while fleeing the Pueblo Revolt.
Doña Ana County consists of the Las Cruces, NM Metropolitan Statistical Area, which is also included in the El Paso-Las Cruces, TX-NM Combined Statistical Area.
Doña Ana is pronounced Doh-nya Ahna [ˌdoɲa ˈana], fast speech [doˈɲana]. It borders Luna, Sierra, and Otero counties in New Mexico, El Paso County, Texas, to the east and southeast, and the state of Chihuahua, Mexico to the south.
As of the 2000 United States Census, there were 174,682 people, 59,556 households, and 42,939 families residing in the county. The population density was 46 people per square mile (18/km²). There were 65,210 housing units at an average density of 17 per square mile (7/km²). The racial makeup of the county was 67.82% White, 1.56% Black or African American, 1.48% Native American, 0.76% Asian, 0.07% Pacific Islander, 24.74% from other races, and 3.58% from two or more races. 63.35% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race.
Doña Ana is a Democratic-leaning county in Presidential and Congressional elections. Since 1920, Doña Ana has voted for the candidate who also won statewide, the only exception being in 2004 when Democrat John Kerry won Doña Ana 51–48%, while Republican George W. Bush won statewide 50–49%. The last Republican to win a majority in the county was George H.W. Bush in 1988. In 2008, Democrat Barack Obama won 58% of the county's vote.
Doña Ana is part of New Mexico's 2nd congressional district, which is held by Democrat Xochitl Torres Small. In the State Senate Doña Ana is part of the 31st, 36th, 37th, 38th, and 40th Senate districts, which are held by Democrats Joseph Cervantes, Jeff Steinborn, David Soules, Mary Kay Papen, and Republican Bill Burt, respectively. In the State House Doña Ana is part of the 33rd, 34th, 35th, and 52nd House districts, which are held by Democrats Bill McCamley, Belaquin Gomez, Angelica Rubio, and Joanne Ferray, respectively, the 37th and 53rd House districts, which are held by Republican Ricky Little, respectively, and the 36th House district, which is held by Nathan Small. Current County Commissioners are as follows: Lynn Ellins (District 1), Ramon S. Gonzalez (District 2), Shannon Reynolds (District 3), Isabella Solis (District 4), and VACANT (District 5).
In January 2012, a Federal court awarded former County prisoner Stephen Slevin a $22 million award for inhumane treatment and for keeping him jailed for 2 years without a trial. In a radio interview on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation program As It Happens broadcast February 7, 2012, Slevin's lawyer indicated that he was arrested for "DWI". During his incarceration, Slevin was placed in solitary confinement. When his health deteriorated, Slevin was removed to a hospital, but after two weeks in the hospital, he was returned to solitary confinement. The lawyer stated that pictures taken before and after Slevin's time in jail were key to the trial's outcome. The District Attorney for the 3rd Judicial District in Doña Ana County during the 2005 - 2007 indefinite detention without trial of Mr. Slevin was Susana Martinez, the current Governor of New Mexico.
After careful review of New Mexico's laws it is clear that the state's marriage statutes are gender neutral and do not expressly prohibit Doña Ana County from issuing marriage licenses to same-gender couples. Any further denial of marriage licenses to these couples violates the United States and New Mexico Constitution and the New Mexico Human Rights Act. Doña Ana County is upholding New Mexico law by issuing these marriage licenses, and I see no reason to make committed couples in Doña Ana County wait another minute to marry.
Several Republican state legislators vowed to file suit against Ellins in a bid to halt the licenses from being issued.

Introducing the "Snake Charmer" Hookah Hose, a super wide hookah hose made in Egypt that features an elaborately decorated large handle with woven threads and cobra head style (non-removable) acrylic mouthpiece.
Measuring a total of 80 inches in length, including the 14 inch handle, the hose itself has a diameter of approximately 1.2 inches at the handle and tapers down to about 3/4 inch at the heel. This super decorative hookah hose will fit on any medium to large hookah and will be sure to "charm" anyone in its presence!

Q: Snake Charmer Hookah Hose is this washable?
A: The Snake Charmer Hookah Hose is not washable.

Fall Events include World, New England & Connecticut Premieres, Navaratri Festival
September 28, 2020 August 3, 2012 by Andrew Chatfield
Rama Vaidyanathan performs on October 21, 2012 as part of the 36th annual Navaratri Festival
Over the course of the next year, a campus-wide steering committee has put together a far-reaching series of global performances, talks and participatory projects, all with the intention of bringing us into an examination of the role of Music & Public Life. We will celebrate and study the sounds, words and spirit of music in public at the local, national and transnational levels, all designed to cross disciplines and to engage the campus and community-at-large. From performances by Middletown's own Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem to the legendary Hugh Masekela; showcasing student research in the role of music in the current political campaigns; to the creation of MiddletownRemix–there are points of entry for everyone.
In September, we feature dance and theater companies who are exploring the role of the audience as actively engaged in the live creative process of the theatrical event. In ZviDance's Zoom, patrons use their smartphones to integrate their own photos and text into the work; in Anonymous Ensemble's Liebe Love Amour!, the audience is engaged in constructing the "performance script."
October and November bring the return of Jawole Willa Jo Zollar of Urban Bush Women in a stunning work she co-created with Nora Chipaumire (visible) that features an international cast of all-star dancers; as well as the CFA's commission of a work by the fiercely interdisciplinary writer/director Rinde Eckert (this year's winner of an inaugural Duke Performing Artist Award). The Last Days of the Old Wild Boy has been developed with students and faculty in Music, Animal Studies and Neuroscience and is supported by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation-funded Creative Campus Initiative.
It's a robust fall, rich with work that brings us into new conversations with art and its possibilities. We hope you'll join us!

Center for the Arts Director Pamela Tatge reflects on the many events that have taken place this week.
Monday, April 2, 2012:
I had some wonderful conversations, emails and phone calls from students and community members who attended Chunky Move over the weekend. I will say that I thought it was one of the most successful integrations of visual art and dance that I've ever witnessed, and I was particularly pleased that Gideon Obarzanek said he's never seen Connected look better than it did in the CFA Theater. For those of you who were there, thank you for supporting this important performance.
We sent out letters of acceptance to the Class of 2013's Institute for Curatorial Practice in Performance the same day we found out that the program will be receiving its first grant from the National Endowment for the Arts!
Tuesday, April 3, 2012:
I had lunch with Gillian Goslinga in Anthropology and Jill Sigman, Center for Creative Research Visiting Artist to hear about "Ritual, Health, and Healing", the course they are co-teaching in Dance and Anthropology as a part of the Creative Campus Initiative. It's also a Service Learning Course and so they are taking their students to St. Nicks Alliance in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn on three Saturdays to conduct research with residents. It will culminate on Sunday, April 22, 2012 as a series of student performance works are presented alongside Sigman's Thinkdance installation at St. Nicks. See a reflection by one of the students in the class, Hannah Cressy '13, here.
Wednesday, April 4, 2012:
I attended the opening of the beautiful exhibition, Provincial Elegance: Chinese Antiques Donated in Honor of Houghton "Buck" Freeman, a collection of objects donated by Anna Lee '84, that's at the Mansfield Freeman Center for East Asian Studies Gallery through Sunday, May 27, 2012. I was so moved by Patrick Dowdey's story of how Anna made the contribution to Wesleyan in honor of the great spirit that was Buck Freeman, whose family made, and continues to make, so many great things possible at Wesleyan. Jean Shaw, former director of the Center for the Arts, told me that not only did Anna graduate the same year I did, but that Anna worked at the CFA when she was a student!

I also attended the second week of the Senior Thesis Exhibitions in the Ezra and Cecile Zilkha Gallery. If you've never taken the time to attend one of the Wednesday receptions from 4pm to 6pm, then you are missing one of the great "scenes" at Wesleyan. Hundreds of students flock to Zilkha to see their fellow students' capstone project. All of us have the great opportunity to feel the pulse of contemporary art on our campus in all of its many manifestations, from JoAnna Bourain's video animation installation [sometimes its hard 2 b a woman (i c u looking at me!!)] to Alex Chaves' vibrant paintings [casual desire] in South Gallery. Exhibitions continue for the next two weeks, with receptions on Wednesday, April 11 and Wednesday, April 18, 2012.
Thursday, April 5, 2012:
Today I'm on a plane headed to Cleveland to do a site visit of Cuyahoga Community College's Creative Campus project on behalf of the Association of Performing Arts Presenters. The project features the prolific and generous violin virtuoso, Daniel Bernard Roumain (you may remember him downstage left playing solo violin for Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company's performance in the CFA Theater in 2006). He's written an opera based on Gilgamesh and the composition has been offered on the web to anyone who wants to create their own work using his composition. He has truly democratized the creation process and tonight I'll have the chance to see his ensemble perform alongside faculty, students and community members.
And I want to wish our senior thesis students in dance the best of luck on their thesis presentations in the Patricelli '92 Theater, tonight through Saturday, April 7, 2012 at 8pm. Click here for more information about the concerts.
It's been a busy week.

Fall events include U.S. & New England Premieres, Navaratri Festival, Lucier Celebration
September 28, 2020 August 2, 2011 by ptatge
At a time when so many of us are turning to YouTube to see performances by our favorite artists, we can lose sight of what it's like to experience live performance. This fall, the Center for the Arts offers you a wide range of performances and exhibitions that will connect you with some of the brightest minds in contemporary art-making, transport you to foreign lands, and inspire you to think about the world in new ways—and the performers will never be more than 69 feet away!
We recognize that it has become increasingly difficult to classify a work as strictly music, dance, theater, visual art, or film as more artists are blurring the boundaries among disciplines. So we have merged our visiting artist performances into a single Performing Arts Series. We hope this will lead you to cross the boundaries of your own comfort zone and discover new artists and art forms.
Highlights of the fall season include the American premiere of the ground-breaking Italian movement theater collective Dewey Dell and the return of Philadelphia's Rennie Harris Puremovement, that has been a trailblazer in taking hip hop forms from the street to the concert stage for nearly twenty years. We'll also host two New England premieres: the astoundingly brilliant throat-singers and musicians from Inner Mongolia, AnDa Union and, continuing our collaboration with the College of the Environment, we'll welcome Water is Rising, a breathtaking performance by a group of 35 dancers and musicians from the Pacific Island atolls, the first islands predicted to be submerged due to climate change. In November, the Music Department and CFA join forces to celebrate Alvin Lucier, internationally renowned composer who has just retired after serving on our faculty for four decades. Alvin Lucier: A Celebration features a major symposium, concert series, film screenings and an exhibition curated by Andrea Miller-Keller.
With performances and exhibitions by visiting artists, students and faculty, there is an extraordinary amount of good work to see at Wesleyan this fall, with 60% offered free to the public or at ticket prices that make us one of the most affordable venues in the state. Tickets are on sale now online. Starting at 10am on Tuesday, August 16, you can call or visit the Wesleyan University Box Office at 860-685-3355 to receive a 10% discount on your purchase of four or more Performing Arts Series events (and if you buy six or more "Performing Arts Series" events, you'll save 15%!) Starting August 16, you will also be able to buy subscription packages for both the 35th annual Navaratri Festival (a 15% savings) as well as the Alvin Lucier Celebration (a 25% savings!)
Please join us. We appreciate that you believe, as we do, in the power of the arts to add meaning to our lives and to remind us of the capacity of the human spirit. Thanks for making Wesleyan's CFA your center for the arts.

Erin Kelly & Phyllis Moen on "Overload: How Good Jobs Went Bad and What We Can Do About It"
Home/Events, Past, Uncategorized/Erin Kelly & Phyllis Moen on "Overload: How Good Jobs Went Bad and What We Can Do About It"
Sarah Kaplan2021-05-30T11:43:53-04:00Categories: Events, Past, Uncategorized|Tags: Economic prosperity, Work-life balance|
Today's ways of working are not working―even for professionals in "good" jobs. Responding to global competition and pressure from financial markets, companies are asking employees to do more with less and new technologies are normalizing a 24/7 work day.
In Overload, Erin Kelly and Phyllis Moen document how the intensification of work creates chronic stress and leads to burnout. "Flexible" work policies and corporate lip service about "work-life balance" don't come close to fixing the problem. But this unhealthy and unsustainable situation can be changed.
Kelly and Moen joined Sarah Kaplan to discuss their new book, Overload: How Good Jobs Went Bad and What We Can Do About It, based on five years of research, which involved surveying over a thousand employees and managers at a Fortune 500 firm. This experiment helped design and implement a "work redesign treatment", allowing the company to adopt creative and practical approaches that gave workers more control over how and where they worked and encouraged managers to evaluate performance in new ways. Kelly went on to explain the success of their findings. "The employees in the treatment group reported less psychological distress and burnout. The company benefited because those employees were more satisfied with their jobs and fewer were planning to quit. We found a 40% smaller exit rate in the treatment group compared to the controlled group. Work-life-conflict also improved for moms and dads."
Why are we experiencing an increased level of stress and burnout at work?
Employees are being asked to tackle too much at work and feel rushed and overwhelmed. In an effort to trim labour costs, organizations are cutting staff, shifting work offshore and automating processes. This results in less workers collaborating on projects and the workers who remain having to do more with less. Additionally, technology offers opportunities for managers, clients and peers to reach employees at any hour of the day or night, creating a workday that has no end.
Why is framing burnout around work-life-balance problematic?
Conversations about work-life-balance implicitly put the onus on the individual to figure out how to have their personal needs met. However, the issue is an organizational one, according to Kelly and Moen. Work-family-conflict is not the root issue, it is the intensification of work. Organizations need to revisit outdated conversations around flexibility, especially when considering "accommodations" to working mothers and parents.
How can we avoid overload?
New work strategies can decrease burnout, increase worker satisfaction, and help you keep your best people. Kelly and Moen offered insight towards actions that organizations can take to reduce workplace related stress and burnout:
Manage the work, not the worker. Turn the focus to the results, not when, where and how it is done. By offering more control to employees to dictate their working conditions, managers can benefit as well, since they don't have to micromanage and can focus on completing their own work.
Get rid of low value work, such as meetings with no agendas, the report that are done which no one reads, etc. This will help free up time to make people more efficient.
Honour, respect and take account of workers' private lives. This has been enhanced by COVID-19. We now have a glimpse of people's home life through our video interactions and encounter children, spouses and dependants . We can no longer deny that workers need time to support these home environments.
Have honest conversations about capacity and create a team culture where this is the norm.
Watch Kelly and Moen discuss why elevated stress is becoming a trend in the workplace and what we can do about it.

On July 23, 1908, Marshal John S. Wright of the Colville Police Department died of complications from being paralyzed after being shot two months before. He and another officer had gone to the victim's home to gather more information. While in the home the brother of the victim, who was scared because of the earlier robbery, opened fire with a rifle from a dark room. Marshal Wright was struck in the neck and paralyzed.
Wright had served as marshal for five years and had previously been a deputy sheriff for four years. He is survived by his wife, three sons, and four daughters.

Every LEGO Creator Expert set confirmed and rumoured for 2022 – May update

As 10302 Optimus Prime joins the line-up for 2022, here's a complete round-up of every LEGO Creator Expert set confirmed and rumoured for release this year.
It's shaping up to be another fantastic – and fantastically expensive – year for LEGO fans, with a Creator Expert portfolio that's once again catering to a wide range of interests, while simultaneously pushing those nostalgia buttons that few of us can ignore. The latest attempt lands on shelves in June in the form of 10302 Optimus Prime, the first-ever LEGO Transformers set, and it's a very successful realisation of the iconic Hasbro character.
That's one more string in the bow for the Creator Expert (now LEGO for Adults) theme in 2022, and one more gap plugged in the rumoured line-up for the rest of the year. Here's a quick reminder of everything released so far in 2022 under what was formerly known as the Creator Expert theme (and is still referred to as such at LEGO.com, if not on box art), along with links to our reviews where applicable, and everything still rumoured to be on the way.

For a deeper dive into those rumoured sets, keep reading…
Very little is known about the next sequential product in the Creator Expert series – which would fall between 10300 Back to the Future Time Machine and 10302 Optimus Prime – but StoneWars reports it's likely to be space-themed, potentially following in the footsteps of 10266 NASA Apollo 11 Lunar Lander and 10283 NASA Space Shuttle Discovery.
Rumours of a new roller coaster initially emerged in February, and recent reports suggest it's now due to arrive in July, with 3,756 pieces for $349.99. Most interesting is the possibility of a loop, the only thing really missing from 2018's 10261 Roller Coaster, which retired at the end of 2021.
A follow-up already would be pretty surprising, but the LEGO Group is probably keen to get some more mileage from its track elements…
Image: The Daily Drive
The DeLorean reportedly won't be the only LEGO Creator Expert vehicle arriving on shelves in 2022, as rumours suggest another muscle car is on the way later this year, packing 1,456 pieces for €159.99.
10304 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 could run the risk of being derivative of 10265 Ford Mustang, which is still available at LEGO.com, but if the LEGO Group opts for a yellow and black colour scheme, it could also be an all-too-coincidental tie-in to 10302 Optimus Prime, if you think about it…
If last year's 31120 Medieval Castle didn't quite do it for you, good news: the LEGO Group's headline 90th anniversary set, chosen as the result of a fan poll to narrow down the top four classic themes, is said to be 10305 Lion King's Castle.
With a reported price tag of €349.99, this alleged update of 1984's 6080 King's Castle has all the potential to be the castle of our dreams – and there's certainly a market out there for it. Whatever it ends up being, expect the main 90th anniversary set to launch in August, coinciding with the LEGO Group's birthday.

Was 2020's 71374 Nintendo Entertainment System a bit too modern for you? Good news: the LEGO Group is reportedly reaching even further back into video game history for 10306 Atari 2600, a console that first hit shelves in 1977.
You'll probably need to be at least 55 years old now to fully appreciate such a set, which is perhaps the oldest specific age group the company has ever targeted. It's said to cost €169.99 and include the console, a controller and Pitfall game, with a rumoured release date of August.

This year's pièce de resistance – at least within the Creator Expert line-up – is said to be 10307 Eiffel Tower, a supersized version of the iconic Parisian structure that could stand a whopping 1.3m tall.
It's rumoured to have the price tag to match, of course, coming in at €629.99 – which would match 10294 Titanic in Europe, and presumably mean an equivalent cost of £554.99 / $629.99 in the UK and US. No word on a piece count for this one yet, though.
According to StoneWars, this year's Winter Village set – a consistent presence in the Creator Expert calendar since 2009 – will fall under product number 10308. Little else is known about it at the moment, but if it's anywhere close to the wonder of last year's 10293 Santa's Visit, we're in for a festive treat.
Keep an eye on Brick Fanatics for future updates to this list, but remember that everything outlined above is still just a rumour for now – and until the LEGO Group confirms otherwise, should be treated with the usual scepticism. You know, just in case they don't plan out entirely as rumoured…

I like to think of myself as a journalist first, LEGO fan second, but we all know that's not really the case. Journalism does run through my veins, though, like some kind of weird literary blood – the sort that will no doubt one day lead to a stress-induced heart malfunction. It's like smoking, only worse. Thankfully, I get to write about LEGO until then. You can follow me on Twitter at @brfa_chris.

The scene in Tunstall following the fire.
A 34-year-old man has been released under investigation as police enquiries into a blaze at a house continue.
Firefighters and police were called to the fire, on King William Street in Tunstall, after arsonists allegedly targeted a house on the road.
A number of nearby houses were evacuated while fire crews dealt with the blaze, which took place on Sunday afternoon.
No one was injured in the fire and the 34-year-old man, who is from the Stoke area, was arrested later that day in connection with the blaze – which a fire investigation concluded was started deliberately.
A Staffordshire Police spokeswoman confirmed the man was no longer in police custody earlier today.
Anyone with information about the fire is asked to call Staffordshire Police on 101 quoting incident 570 of August 13.


Alliance Project Group is pleased to announce that the Elan Epping project team has achieved one of the first major milestones of the project with the topping out of the structure.
With intentions now focused on the façade and internal fitout, we are on track to deliver a quality project for our client, Chiwayland.
Watch the video below for a spectacular time-lapse show of the structure rising from basement to roof.

To differentiate their projects in a hotly competitive South Florida condo market, developers are increasingly turning to fine art. Expensive art, in the form of paintings, sculptures and other works, is now a critical part of condo project design in the region, Miami Herald reported. Developers are permanently displaying high-end pieces in the common areas of their condo towers. The international investors scouting new projects, especially Brazilians, Italians and Russians, seek out projects with fine art components. The proliferation of Art Basel Miami Beach has helped intertwine South Florida's art and real estate worlds. Art Basel's 12th edition begins on Dec. 5.
If you're looking for above average homes to buy, you can choose from among the Brickell Homes available at Centercon.com USA. You'll find these homes highly attractive. But more than that, Brickell Homes by Centercon.com USA are built with the foundation that man should live with all the luxuries due to him with prices within his means to pay. Everyone should be given the opportunity to enjoy the best in life without exhausting their means to pay for other necessities; that's what Centercon is all about.
Brazil ranked among the top countries searching for residential real estate in Miami in May. Trends uncovered on Miamire.com also reveal that South Florida still tops the nation for international real estate buyers and consumers.
Miami continues to be a top choice for Brazilian buyers who feel at home in Miami and are attracted by the local lifestyle, culture, and thriving real estate market. Brazilians prefer Miami over any other market in Florida and the U.S.
Buyers achieved an average discount of eight percent off of the original asking price for Aventura's priciest luxury condo resales in South Florida to transact in the first quarter of 2013.

One of the most striking and dramatic plants you will ever grow, the impressive Crown Imperial Fritillary has a highly exotic appearance yet is fully hardy and easy to grow.
Reaching a statuesque 100-120cms tall, Fritillaria imperialis produces majestic crowns of vibrant orange-red, bell-shaped flowers, topped with a crown of green foliage from mid-spring.
Planted at the back of borders, Fritillaria imperialis will certainly catch the eye with its towering, statuesque stems. The pendulous flowers make a bold statement in the garden being a bright colour combined with flowering early it the year, no wonder it was one of the first plants ever tobe cultivated, bought to European shores, Clusius introduced this majestic plant to the Netherlands as early as the 16th century. The plant is found in such locations as Turkey, Iran and Afghanistan in the wild.
Just a few stems of this incredible plant cut for a vase will make an indoor arrangement that will stop people in their tracks, or simply enjoy a real spectacle in the garden.
Supplied in approx. 1 litre containers.

Apple iPad 2 and iPhone 5 could lose their home buttons, rumors say
Apple's next iPad and iPhone may ditch the home button in favor of multi-touch gestures, according to rumors reported by various news websites and blogs.
Speculation and rumor over what may or may not be included in Apple's next-generation devices, particularly its iPads and iPhones, seems to never let up. One of the biggest Apple rumors, the Verizon iPhone, became fact on Tuesday after years of speculation that the carrier would get the hugely popular smart phone.
The Boy Genius Report seems to be among the leaders in spreading the no-home-button rumor.
The blog said that the home button would be removed and that multi-touch gestures would be used to return to the home screen and also to launch an app switcher.
If you think this latest rumor sounds a bit crazy, you're not alone. The Boy Genius Report admits in its report that "it's hard to believe at first." The report makes no mention of the rumor applying to Apple's iPod Touch.
If Apple holds to past release dates for the iPhone and iPad, then a new iPhone should hit stores in about June or July and a new iPad should arrive in about April, with unveilings a bit before.
Apple, as usual, doesn't comment on rumors.
The Motorola Xoom tablet, unveiled last week at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, has no buttons. So, a button-free tablet is on its way from at least one manufacturer.
