Q: Xamarin c# - Apps aren't starting I installed Xamarin on VS to make android apps with c#. Everything is good configured (I think so).
configuration of my sample
After creating a new project and selecting to run sample app on my avd (5.0 API21). AVD starts but my app doesn't appear. Also when i copy signed file to my Android phone (5.0.1 API21) it says "app is stopped"
After waiting i've got but deploy is checked...
The application could not be started. Ensure that the application has been installed to the target device and has a launchable activity (MainLauncher = true).

Additionally, check Build->Configuration Manager to ensure this project is set to Deploy for this configuration.

My code:
protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
        {
            base.OnCreate(bundle);

            // Set our view from the "main" layout resource
            SetContentView(Resource.Layout.Main);

            // Get our button from the layout resource,
            // and attach an event to it
            Button button = FindViewById<Button>(Resource.Id.MyButton);

            button.Click += delegate { button.Text = string.Format("{0} clicks!", count++); };
        }

A: make sure that the following is above the MainActivity class
[Activity(Label = "YourAppName", Icon = "@mipmap/icon", Theme = "@style/MainTheme", MainLauncher = true, ConfigurationChanges = ConfigChanges.ScreenSize | ConfigChanges.Orientation)]

I give you plenty of money each month. You're going to do this for me, and you're going to like it!
Um, yeah. I have hot girls living near me, and they won't give me the time of day (they say 'hi' to joel, though. Hmm.) I think the various girls around me are romantically involved, though.
I thought they never gave you the time of day because all you do is stare at them through the living room blinds. Seriously, if your going to talk to them the first step you should take would be to introduce yourself.
As I've explained before, I have. But oh, well.
You forgot to ask for them to be STD-free, Ron. You've blown it now!
Thank you so much for your recent inquiry into the unit across the hall from you. We are always happy to hear from our tenants!
As to the unit in question, you'll be happy to know that we've rented it out to a group of three individuals. I haven't met them, and I don't have their files in front of me, but I'm told that they're "extremely effeminate" and these could only be girls, right? I'm also told that they are very into fashion and show-tunes, so it sounds like you're in luck!
We hope you find your future neighbors invigorating, interesting, and (dare I say?) appealing.
We Care. We Really Do!
I told you to rent out that room at the brothel instead of Ramblewood. It cost that same, and you get all the extra bonuses that you are looking for now.
But you never seem to listen.
Yeah, usually STDs cost at least the price of dinner, or failing that, booze.


Consumer prices rose 0.32% in January over the previous month, accelerating from December's 0.15% increase. The result was largely due to higher prices for food and beverages.
Inflation inched up to 3.8% in January from December's 3.7%. Inflation has remained moderate in recent months due to an appreciation of the real, cuts in government-controlled prices and economic slack. Annual average inflation was unchanged at December's 3.7% in January.
Panelists participating in the LatinFocus Consensus Forecast see inflation closing 2019 at 4.2%, which is unchanged from last month's forecast. For 2020, the panel expects inflation of 4.1%.
The seasonally-adjusted consumer confidence index published by the Getulio Vargas Foundation (FGV, Fundaçao Getúlio Vargas) fell in April, dropping to the lowest reading since October 2018.

Michigan Football
J.J. McCarthy calls Michigan's offense 'dangerous': "Chomping at the bit to get the air raid going"
Michigan's passing offense certainly has potential.
By Trevor Woods@WoodsFootball Oct 2, 2022, 12:05pm CDT
Share All sharing options for: J.J. McCarthy calls Michigan's offense 'dangerous': "Chomping at the bit to get the air raid going"
Jeffrey Becker-USA TODAY Sports
Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy has been very efficient to this point in the season. Through five games McCarthy is completing an absurdly good 78.6% of his passes with six touchdowns and zero interceptions.
McCarthy's a talented quarterback, but the multitude of options Michigan has at his disposal on offense have helped him play at a high level. McCarthy has targets to throw to such as Ronnie Bell, Roman Wilson, Cornelius Johnson, Andrel Anthony, A.J. Henning, and Luke Schoonmaker. The Wolverines also have two talented running backs in Blake Corum and Donovan Edwards. And it helps to have an offensive line that won the Joe Moore Award in 2021.
After Michigan's 27-14 win over Iowa, a game where the Wolverines rushed for 172 yards and McCarthy passed for 155 yards against Iowa's No. 1 scoring defense, McCarthy was asked about the cohesion of Michigan's offense. McCarthy's excited to be part of an offense that has the ability to beat teams on the ground as well as through the air.
"It's amazing it just shows how dangerous we are as a unit. We could go on the ground with and run for 200, 300 but we can also go through the air with it and throw for 300, 400," McCarthy said after the game.
Michigan currently ranks 31st in total offense — ranking 13th in rushing offense and 77th in passing offense, and 14th in team passing efficiency. McCarthy's highest passing total of the season came against Hawaii, where he threw for 229 yards, a total he should easily surpass in the games ahead. McCarthy noted that Michigan's receivers are ready to start firing on all cylinders.
"The guys are hungry, they're chomping at the bit to get the air raid going. I'm so happy to be a part of this offense. So grateful to be around these guys and be around (co-offensive coordinators) coach Moore and coach Weiss. We're just very dangerous all around."
Great throw by J.J. McCarthy here. Great catch by Andrel Anthony and an even better job not taking a big hit. pic.twitter.com/hOtIAO85dS
— Trevor Woods (@WoodsFootball) October 2, 2022
Michigan may be passing the ball more very soon, as their schedule sets up for them to do so nicely. Michigan's next three opponents all have struggled against the pass. Indiana ranks 118th in passing defense, Penn State ranks 105th, and Michigan State ranks 115th. If there was a stretch to unleash McCarthy and Michigan's passing offense, this is it.
We've seen glimpses of McCarthy's ability to stretch the ball downfield, there have been instances where his ability to extend things with his legs creates a big play opportunity by passing the ball. If McCarthy can start consistently landing deep shots with touch and intermediate laser strikes, the sky is the limit for Michigan's offense.

Christensen has applied his theory to retailing several times. In his landmark book The Innovator's Dilemma, he offered a compelling case study of how department stores were disrupted by the rise of the discount retailers in the 1960s. In 2000 he and several coauthors examined the rise and disruptive influence of e-commerce in a well-received article for Harvard Business Review.
Internet sales now account for about 9 percent of total retail sales in the U.S. (more in some other countries) and have absorbed essentially all of the retail sector's real money growth since 2000. The grocery sector, however, has been a notable stick-in-the-mud. While consumer electronics is now about 25 to 30 percent online, grocery still struggles to exceed 1 percent.
Last December, Christensen turned his attention to the relative weakness of online grocery sales. In a wide-ranging HBR article titled "Surviving Disruption," Christensen and coauthor Maxwell Wessel note that disruption is not always the all-conquering force that it is sometimes feared to be. And they offer a framework for how to understand when and if a disruption is "coming right at you," or whether it may pass you by.
As an example, they lay out an analysis of the grocery sector, starting—as Christensen often does—with examining the "jobs" that consumers "hire" their grocery store (in this case, a Kroger) to do for them.
"Spend a day near a Kroger exit, and you'll see a few distinct patterns. In the morning and early afternoon, many customers spend a substantial amount of time in all the store's aisles loading up large grocery carts. Occasionally a customer zips in to buy one or two items and checks out in the express lane. Late in the afternoon, a handful of customers are still filling their carts with staples, but far more are picking up fresh vegetables, proteins, and the occasional baked good.
Grocery retailers will recognize these "jobs" as what are known as "shopping occasions" or "trip missions." Shopping occasions cut across traditional customer segmentation and are instead defined by the motivation and needs of the shopper on a particular trip—based on what they are buying, how much they are buying, and how soon it will be consumed.
We can all recognize a "top-up," or "fill-in," shopping occasion: a quick trip to our local grocery store to pick up fresh ingredients for tonight's dinner and perhaps a few other items to get us through the week. Similarly, we are familiar with the "stock-up" trip: the less frequent big shopping excursion when we buy many of the staple (often nonperishable) items that make up a large proportion of our grocery budget.
Christensen and Wessel's basic argument about the grocery business—and it's a good one—is that online shopping is much better at serving the needs of stock-up occasions than top-ups. Generally speaking, stock-ups are preplanned trips: Consumers prepare shopping lists and may venture significant distances (say, to reach a club store or a supercenter) specifically for that occasion. Since much of the basket is nonperishable, consumers can buy larger pack sizes and draw on their pantry "inventory" gradually over the following week(s). In contrast, top-up occasions tend much more toward the impromptu and immediate. Many consumers may not know what they are going to buy even as they enter the store to shop for tonight's dinner.
Since online shopping requires some element of preplanning, Christensen and Wessel argue, top-up occasions should be relatively safe, while stock-ups are at much more risk for online disruption. That's the bad news for retailers, especially those that focus on these occasions today such as club stores and supercenters.
The good news is that it's a lot easier to make the move into online by focusing on stock-ups. For one, fulfillment is easier for stock-up occasions. As stock-ups tend to focus much more on nonperishables (including nonfood items like trash bags and cleaning products), handling and temperature control issues are much reduced. And since most of the stock-up basket is not needed "right now," the consumer will likely tolerate longer times between order and delivery. In addition, the need for precise delivery windows is substantially reduced, since nonperishable products can often be left on the doorstep.
Interestingly, most of the current debate in the grocery industry centers on what operating model or "format" is required to make online groceries both appealing to consumers and cost-effective for retailers. Retailers are variously experimenting with centralized, highly automated fulfillment centers with hub-and-spoke distribution (Ocado), decentralized online picking-only "dark stores" (Tesco), pickup in-store (Safeway), pickup points (Ahold), and other models. Notably, Amazon has recently announced a significant expansion of its Amazon Fresh offering, with city-level fulfillment centers combined with rapid (likely same-day) delivery.
An analysis of these different models is beyond the scope of this post, but it does strike us that the implications of Christensen's insights are quite powerful. All of today's competing models seek to serve all shopping occasions and all categories. Yet much of the cost and complexity in online grocery retailing stems from the stringent demands of just one shopping occasion: the top-up, which requires high-speed delivery, careful handling, and strict temperature control all the way to the consumer's doorstep (implying precise delivery windows). If a retailer were instead to target nonperishable, stock-up occasions only, the business would be much less complex and much lower cost.
Perhaps the truly disruptive play in online grocery retail is not a "full-service" model seeking to meet all the consumer's needs all the time but a limited nonperishable offering targeting stock-up occasions. In our view, this is the key implication of Christensen's recent analysis. And he is, after all, a very smart man.

EIG (Essential Information Group) property auctions is a tool that allows you to search virtually every property coming to auction in the UK. Not only can you see properties for sale, past and the future but you can download legal packs, research postcodes and locations and employ a large array of search filters to help you find exactly the right properties.
Hello everyone, and welcome to today's training video, which is where we're going to be looking at how to find the very best property deals going to auction using a service from Essential Information Group.
Now, this is a paid for service that have a specific tool that allows you to search and get data for property auctions across the UK.
Now, unlike some of the other property portals, EIG is just focused on auctions and unlike some of the other property portals, it has a lot of extra data specifically around property auctions, which is why we use EIG.
This is a paid for service. We don't have any affiliation with EIG. It's not a company that we're owned by or one that we own ourselves. It's just a tool that we use within our company that we wanted to show you how to use it to find the best potential property deals going to auction.
Now, auctions are notoriously interesting places to buy and sell properties. There's a whole host of reasons for that. Sometimes it's because there's a little bit of mystique around auctions.
You won't necessarily have all the information you need if you're new to the auction process. You will have access to the information you need but finding it, understanding it and digging through it is a different matter.
Before you make your first purchase at auction you need to know what to look for and what things to consider. That's really what we want to help show you in these videos.
Now, this is going to be a mini-series of three videos and this is the first video.
In this series, we going to be looking at three different things. This first video is going to focus how to use the tool from Essential Information Group.
Then videos two and three will be focusing on two specific areas of the tool and how it can be used to unearth some fantastic property deals.
Essential Information Group here. We are already logged in. Now, at the end of this video and somewhere around this video, we'll put a link so you can get a free trial to use the service as well if you wanted to do that.
Once you've signed up, if you log in, and then you have access to the same sort of information we have here.
So you have My EIG, search auctions, buying at auction, tools and services, news and information, and then below that, there are some sub-menus.
Now, ultimately EIG or My EIG, My EI Group, is where you're going to be seeing most of your search activity take place.
In here, you'll see all the future auctions that are coming up in the next 60 days as well.
As we're based in Manchester, our focus is primarily in Manchester and northwest. We do look at other areas around the UK, and hence, using a tool like this, that has additional information that you won't find on some of the traditional search portals, is fantastic.
It gives us an extra layer of data for us to use.
We can have a quick search here, which is going to be very simple, to set some minimum criteria to find those property deals. But, typically, we use a lot more detail than this.
There are a whole host of reasons for that, but mainly we just want a bit more flexibility and control on the extra layer of information that we are going to use.
Now, you can choose your area here. We're going to be choosing M21, which is a postcode in Manchester and set a search radius of 15 miles.
I'm just going to clear the dataset here and show you how we would start again with this search function. So, type in the postcode, address or region. First, we're going to look at 15 miles outside of Manchester or outside of the M21 postcode.
Then you've got the ability to add and change any of the filter sets based on the property type you are looking for. So, if you are looking for commercial property auctions, you could choose that.
We're ultimately looking for residential property auctions, so we're just going to want all residential tenure and tenancy.
Now if you click that, it will pre-populate all of these tick boxes for you. So it just speeds up the process slightly. You don't have to do that. You can choose them and then put them select them manually if you wanted to. But for us, we would consider freehold and leasehold. We would consider vacant and tenanted properties.
If you click on more options. You can see here it gives you some extra drop down sets and filter sets. You also have an extra residential filter here for repossession only or new build only.
It's nice. It's very good if you're specifically looking for repossessed property and you want to shortcut that search function and/or if you're just looking for brand new build properties around different areas of the country.
By highlighting these, it will just pull in those properties only, so it just gives you a bit of a speedier way of searching through everything.
Now, we want to look at future auctions, because we're looking at properties that are coming available to purchase rather than looking at data historically for ones that have sold.
But there's a very good use case for looking at sold property auctions. Maybe you're looking for properties have just recently been sold and but there are still some unsold lots. Or maybe you just want data on properties that have sold previously.
So, if you do research into a given area and you want to see what the market was like last year, for example, you can do that by looking at what was sold.
We're open to all auctioneers because we want to try and have a look at as many opportunities as possible. Same again for price ranges and same again for status, so the reason why the property is being listed.
But you can add in, obviously, any of these statuses that are rather to yourself. The same again for tenancy and lease information.
Now, if you wanted to search or save this search, you can come back to it later. You can save it. We're going to call our search Manchester 1, similar to a search save that we've done in the past, then click search and that will bring us all of the property listings in.
Now we've done our first initial search. We should have all of the potential opportunities that are going to auction in the future for those criteria that we've added, so specifically for our location.
Now, unlike some of the other search portals, like Rightmove and Zoopla, which do show listings from all other types of sales, so not just auctions, EI Group is specifically focused on auctions.
Not only that, but it also gives you extra information that is specific to EIG that other sites don't have.
You can see here, the listings are listed in the same as on any traditional site. However, you do have extra information layered on top.
Under each listing here, you can see a lot of different icons. To understand what those icons mean, you can hover over them, as we did there, and it will tell you what they are. You have an icon legend here at the top, which will give you a quick look version of what is included.
There are lots of different ways that you can use this. It depends on what you need it to do. I'm not going to go through each individual element of it.
There are lots of videos on Youtube already on Essential Information Group and how to use the service.
Uniquely, they also have an onboarding process as well. So, when you become a new member, they will show you exactly how to use the service on a one-on-one basis.
You will need to work out how to use it best for your personal circumstances but it's a very valuable asset. It's very helpful.
Specifically for us, though, there are a couple of key criteria that we look for.
Certainly, legal documents, so it gives us a shortened version to download of all the legal documents. Any properties that we are really interested in, we're going to be wanting to look at the legal packs. That's a good way for us to get that quite quickly without having to do multiple searches.
Catalogue entry, as well, if you want to see the listing based on the catalogue entry for the auction.
Ultimately, though, the extra level of data here that I'm specifically interested in for our search is street history and similar properties.
Now, when we're searching for property deals, there's a process that we follow that usually starts off with a shortlist. That's where we'll usually list or create a shortlist of potential properties that we like the look of.
Now, this process is the same if we are using EI Group for auctions or Rightmove or Zoopla for more general property listings.
It all starts with that shortlist. Once we have that short list, then we can narrow it down to potential properties that we really are keen on and want to look at further.
Ultimately, when we're using the extra dataset here, it's these two icons that we mentioned. So, they are a history of properties on the street (specifically auction properties) and a history of properties that have sold similar to this in the area, again, specifically for auction properties.
You don't have that access to information on the other portals like Rightmove and Zoopla, so this is unique to EIG and is unique for auction listings, helpful if you are buying at auction.
Not only that, but this also gives you an idea if properties have failed to sell at auction before and have been relisted. Maybe you weren't aware that that is what was happening to the property that you're considering buying.
That level of information there on these two searches will help you show that.
So, I'll go in through that in a second a bit further, but the first stage you want to do is just add the properties to our shortlist. For example, if we were interested in this property here, we'd use this icon and add it to our short list.
There is also a second section within EIG (essential information group), which is adding a property to a portfolio.
That's quite helpful if you want to separate out your lists. So, for example, if we wanted to look at properties in Manchester and properties in Birmingham, then we'd probably set them up as two separate portfolios.
In addition to that, if you wanted to look at refurbishments in Manchester and ready-to-lets in Manchester, again, we can add them to two separate portfolios.
For our purposes now, though, we're just going to add them to shortlist. That is the first stage of the process to see if these properties could potentially be a suitable option for us.
We're just looking at general detail at the moment to see if the location is right, the guide price is right, the property type is right. Then we just want to add them to our short list.
For me, the main thing I'm looking for is generally the imagery, so what the property is. We are looking for properties that we can buy, refurbish, add value to, and then sell or maintain and keep in our own portfolio.
Obviously, I'm also interested in guide price, but just really to see if it looks about right for the type of property that is being sold.
This particular property, for example, is quite a large property. It's got an extension. We know the area quite well, Burnage. And that price is quite top heavy for the area. But, obviously, the price or the size of the property is reflective of that.
So I probably wouldn't add that to our shortlist at this stage. We can do some more research on it and look at it a bit more but the initial data and the initial information tells me that this isn't a house I will probably be interested in.
As you can see here, now we start to build up a bit of a view of what properties in our area could potentially work.
Once we've done that, we can then click on our shortlist here and see the information in a viewpoint that's more specific to the properties that we are interested in. These are all the shortlisted properties that we viewed before.
Once we've got the short list, our next stage is then to ultimately assess the deals a bit further. If we start from the top and work our way down, we can click on the link here. That will take us to the listing. Then there are the two filters that we mentioned before. Street history and similar properties, that we really want to dig into.
Now, you can see here the range of different filter sets that you have as well. Obviously, you'll have to create your own scenario and use the tool in a way that suits you.
For us, however, it's primarily these two filters. Street history and similar properties.
This is important because it will give us an idea about the property, the street, the location, and will let us see if anything has happened in the local market, recently.
Now, as we can see here on this top property, this is the original listing, the one that we're looking at. But on the street history, there's a property here below it that is exactly the same.
So, unlike a normal or traditional search where we would not know necessarily if that property has been sold recently and/or what price it sold for and/or what the detail was around the sale, we know specifically, here, that this property actually sold at auction less than a year back.
It sold for £143,000 when the guide price for this sale is only £125,000.
That's quite interesting, because for a start, why would it be sold, bought and sold within such a short space of time, both at auction?
You certainly see properties being purchased, refurbished, and then sold on the open market, but it's unusual to see a property brought to auction and then sold to auction within a short space of time.
There might be some problems or issues with the property. So that would usually indicate to us something that we wanted to look at further.
Maybe the property was purchased, a planning application was put in, and then the planning application failed or was rejected. This could explain why these people are looking to sell the property on.
It could also structural problems with the property or maybe issues with the legal pack that the original buyer wasn't aware of.
It doesn't mean the property is a definite no. It just gives us an idea of what we should be digging into and an understanding of what the issues potentially could be with that property.
You can also see any other additional listings that have sold on the street. Now, this is quite an unusual property, because it's a former pub. The comparisons here for terrace house, semi-attached houses aren't going to be directly relevant.
What it gives us is a little bit of an indication of possible value and what the general area might be for valuations.
Again, this property here. You can see it's sold a couple of times at auction over a period of time as well. So that initial search is very helpful because it gives us more information about other properties on the street.
The next search is also helpful because it gives us an idea of local properties within a given area. We may see properties similar to this sold at auction. You might have another pub, for example, within a given distance that has gone to sale at auction and then also the data of that particular property.
There's none now showing on this listing, so it just gives us really a snapshot view as to what that property is going to potentially be compared to.
If we go back to the original shortlist, we would then do the same with all of the other properties on our list. Then we would either keep them on the short list or we would remove them from the shortlist if we felt that certain properties were not suitable.
Once we've made that first shortlist, we will know which properties are coming up to auction. We will know which properties are being sold at auction that an inherent value in them (by checking local sold prices).
So by checking properties that have sold recently and properties that have sold on the same street at auction, we can then pass them on to the next stage – which involves further due diligence, physical viewings and an examination of the legal pack.
That's how we would usually use Essential Information Group to do our searches for auction properties.
That just gives you a general indication and a guide as to how we typically look for those properties.
Now, there are a whole host of different methods that you can use, and there are two other key criteria that we use within our auction searches as well, which I'll show you in the second and third part of this mini-series.
I look forward to catching with you in the next video. All the best.

Harry Reid was worst guest, Stewart says
By GLENN THRUSH
Larry David (my fellow Sheepshead Bay H.S. grad) showed up on the Daily Show last night and kicked things off by asking Jon Stewart, "Who was the worst guest you ever had on this show?"
[Starts at the 15:00 minute mark]
Stewart: You know who was not good — Democratic Senate Leader Harry Reid. We had him on the show and he was like in a coma — it was so weird — are you familiar with him? You watch C-SPAN?
David: I know who the majority leader is, yes...
Stewart: He'd written a book about his life. I was asking him about his life and it was... as though I was telling him a story he hadn't heard before. ... Look at the house you'd grow up in and he was like [makes a confused face]."
David: I could be worse than Harry Reid.
Stewart: I don't think you can be could be worse than Harry Reid. Already I'm having a much better time.
The interview, featuring a barely audible Reid, from May 2008:

A concerned individual notified me via Facebook about News5 AKSYON's unauthorized use of my face on a video on Facebook and on their website. The news is all about Pagpapakulay Ng Buhok, May Masamang Epekto Sa Kalusugan.
The thing is, I was not even having my hair colored at that time. The video was taken during the launch of Dove Daily Hair Vitamin in Blo, Rockwell last year.
Sadly, the channel/show or whoever captured and edited that video never even asked permission (which I will decline, of course!) nor even blurred my face for goodness' sake. Now, where is the truth in reporting there?
I will email the news program now. Let's see what they have to say.

Metropolitan Museum of Art Hires Kelly Baum as Contemporary Art Curator

The Metropolitan Museum of Art has appointed Kelly Baum of the Princeton University Art Museum as curator of postwar and contemporary art in the museum's department of modern and contemporary art.
The Met has been hunting for a replacement for Nicholas Cullinan, recently named director of London's National Portrait Gallery (see National Portrait Gallery Appoints Nicholas Cullinan as Director), since January (see Hate Your Job? The Met Seeks Postwar and Contemporary Art Curator).
In a statement, Met director and CEO Thomas P. Campbell praised Baum's selection, saying that "her broad engagement with post-World War II international art makes her a great asset to the curatorial team headed by Sheena Wagstaff."

"Kelly will join the department during this exciting period as we reconsider our programming and the visitor experience within the Met's modern and contemporary art wing and as we look forward to the opening of the Met Breuer," Campbell added about the March 2016 opening of its expanded modern and contemporary programming in the former home of the Whitney Museum at 75th Street and Madison Avenue. (See Metropolitan Museum of Art's Breuer Building Programming Spans from Diane Arbus to Vijay Iyer and Gut Renovation for the Met's Modern and Contemporary Wing.)
Baum, who starts July 1, comes to the museum after five years in Princeton, where she was the institution's founding curator of the department of modern and contemporary art. There, she organized such exhibitions as "Doug Aitken: migration (empire)" (2010); "Felix Gonzalez-Torres: 'Untitled'" (2013), and the Warhol Curatorial Research Fellowship–winning "New Jersey as Non-Site" (2013).

Though it is among the world's finest encyclopedia museums, the Met has not been traditionally known for its contemporary programming, something the institution hopes to change with Met Breuer and its upcoming renovation. Coming from Princeton, Baum is well-suited to the task.
"[The contemporary collection] was very safe; it wasn't risky. It was dominated by the work of white men, and so it lacked diversity in terms of the artists, in terms of the works of art," she told Princeton Alumni Weekly this past March.
During her tenure, Baum helped the museum acquire over 100 works of art, with a focus on women artists, international artists, and artists of color, as well as on diversity of media.
She also established an endowed artist-in-residence program which has hosted such international artists as Goshka Macuga, Thomas Hirschhorn, and El Anatsui. Serving as a curatorial adviser to the campus art committee, Baum helped realize commissioned works from Odili Donald Odita and Ursula von Rydingsvard.

We are all called by God and our Holy Father to promote vocations to the priesthood and religious life. You and I have been called. Thank you for answering the call.
You are probably already doing much of the work Serrans do!
You invite religious to relax at golf, cards, ski etc.
There are advantages of belonging to any organization which meets regularly.
We often need the support and advice of others.
We answer our call to promote a culture of vocations.
What then will you do as a Serran?
We all should recognize the need to support our priests and religious. There are many ways of doing this. Serra has many ideas for support.
A favourite sport of Catholics is to criticize their priests and religious. It is important that there is someone, a Serran, there to speak on their behalf.
Serra clubs usually meet twice a month.
One purpose of having a speaker is to learn more about our faith and an opportunity to have questions answered.


If you are in a relationship you might find that arguments and strife become the norm in what was once a happy union - or the relationship might break up altogether.

It's a truly effective voodoo spell that will break any kind of hex or evil work that has been worked on you - for good.


Over the weekend we were strolling the boardwalk in Seaside Heights. Inside an arcade, I came across a wall of funhouse mirrors. Each one presented a comic, distorted me. I studied each reflection carefully and realized that this is exactly how I present myself to the world. A series of preposterous exaggerations.
The people I work with have no idea who I really am and they never will. I won't allow it. My daughters certainly haven't a clue. How could they? They lack perspective. I don't put my true self out here in blogland. Who does!? Don't all posts contain a modicum of half-truths and boasts? I moved away from home decades ago so my siblings can't know who I am anymore. My wife knows me better than anyone but there are still hidden crevices that remain unexplored.
Can we ever know our true selves? The voice in our head only tells us what we want to hear. Perhaps we're all just a composite of these others selves. Maybe there's no real true center. Just a series of funhouse mirror reflections.
When I was a kid, we never had a nice car. My dad bought a series of junkers that were 'great deals.' They were broken-down wrecks on their last legs. Rolling scrap metal. Time bombs. One car had a rusted-out hole in the floor. You could see the road speeding by underneath. We used to fight over who got to sit over the hole and watch the road. We finally had to get rid of it because we were on a freeway and the carpet caught on fire. The car filled with smoke.
Another time, my mom was driving the four of us kids to grandma's house. While speeding down Fulton Street, the front axle snapped in half. We saw a tire rolling down the road and thought it was the funniest thing until we realized it came off of our car. We could have been killed.
Over the weekend we bought a brand new car. It's a mid-sized SUV with only 96 miles on the odometer. A big, suburban snooze-mobile. 12-year old daughter expressed mild disappointment that we didn't get the limited edition with second row captain's chairs and leather trim interior. Can you imagine?!

It's part of a long-established tradition. The wedding table, in all its finery, always contains a little gift for the guests.
But what is a wedding favour really for?
As UK suppliers of wedding favours, we've seen over the years how a wedding favour can personalise a place setting, and liven up a table, as well as providing a lovely memento of your special day. They're a way for the bride and groom to thank their guests for sharing such a special day – and many years ago, when people were more superstitious, they were regarded as a symbol of good luck. People reasoned that if they shared their luck with others, they would share their luck with them.
All very good reasons to include favours in your wedding – but what about its origins?
