go to my site http://mindbodyblast.com/?et_core_page_resource=et-core-unified-cached-inline-styles1592 This Christmas we want to set our eyes on Him and wait in anticipation for His coming. We want to prepare our hearts and look at the world with God's eyes. We want to remember why God sent His son Jesus as a baby. This series will help us discover the Joy, Hope, Peace and Love that comes with His arrival.
We are designed for community – a place of potential common unity and blessing. Strong, healthy community is not coincidental. It is intentional. It is strategic and purposeful. People who are committed to collectively building Christian community discover the kingdom of God here in earth in extraordinary measure. May this series open large doors of understanding and opportunity to nurture and grow community in and through your life.
A sermon series that will look at the Kingdom of Heaven. We will be looking at what it means to us as believers and citizens, how it will change our understanding of how we live our lives and motivate us to grow His kingdom here on earth. Together we will embrace our role as Citizens of God's Kingdom.
How often do you think about who you are and what you are here for? This sermon series is a springboard to helping answer those questions. It's a series designed to look at our purpose, identity and calling with eternity in mind, and how all that should stem from the motivation that God has put in our hearts. Join us in the lead up to Easter as we look into why we are 'Made For This'.
Finding the rhythm where deep calls to deep and living from this place changes everything. There you experience security, strength, inner peace. You feel in touch, tuned in to God, people and yourself. Jesus said that one of the highest orders of his house that He is building is that it would be a house of prayer – a house of rhythm where the will of heaven is pulsating into earth. This series is about living from your core; living from a place of strength and revelation. This year, Calgary Full Gospel is poised to enter new areas of prayer that will result in breakthroughs, significant growth in multiple dimensions, and greater dominion – that which is born of God shall overcome the world. A year of change and transformation awaits you – you will never be the same!
'A BEAUTIFUL NAME' is a Christmas Sermon Series where the focus isn't just on the birth of Jesus, it doesn't just revolve around the shepherds and wise men. In this series we want to remember the man that is Jesus, the man that changed the world and has continued to do so over the last two thousand years. We want to focus on Jesus, a beautiful name.
The Holy Spirit – the God many never know intimately, personally. When he fills you, empowers you, communes with you, your life is never the same. The Holy Spirit reveals truth. He is brilliant beyond words. Through Him, the Bible comes alive; you experience peace, healing, love. Let's go on a life changing journey, together.
BREAKFAST ON THE BEACH is a series that takes us through the book of John.
PERSPECTIVE is a sermons series centred around Jesus' teaching of the parables. It was a radical way of looking at things and opened the eyes of many people in the world and the Church to see things as God does. We're going to take those same parables, step back and look at our lives and our world with a Kingdom perspective.
Noah built the ark. Nehemiah built the wall. David slayed Goliath. Solomon built the temple. Peter got over himself and built the church. Jesus changed the world. Throughout church history there have been many difference makers. People who were willing to get their own hands dirty. Ready to do whatever it takes to reach people distant from God and teach them how to follow Jesus step by step. Someone just like you, can be a difference maker.
Our goal in life is to grow to be more like Christ, to be His hands and feet on the earth. We seek to show others what Jesus did for us and what He continues to do. We seek to let others know about his saving grace. None of this would be possible without the power of the Holy Spirit. This series looks at how we can go deeper into His presence to equip us to be His ambassadors.
This Christmas season we want to look not only at how God illuminates our lives but how we can in turn illuminate those around us. We will look at how we can be light to one another in the Church, how we can be light to our family and friends, and finally, how we can be light to our neighbours, our city and our world.
Faith is that which crosses from impossible to possible, improbable to probable, it's the thing that takes our hopes and turns them into reality. In this series we will look at how faith can be for something small or something huge. We will look at how we can exercise our faith and make it stronger and grow it in our lives.
'IMPERFECT HEROES' – A Sermon Series. Everyone needs a Hero. The Bible has many epic stories of real people who, in a moment of time, were heroic in the eyes of many people. These heroes had great strength, skill or gifting but they also had weakness, and their lives are an example of how God will use imperfect people to do great things.
'EXPLORE' – A Sermon Series. The questions, the wonderings, the thoughts in the middle of the night. What is going on in the world and what does it mean for my life? What are the deep things that really matter? This series will give you some answers, but that is really not the point of it. We want you to think, explore, and examine what is truly happening in the world around you and what is happening in the world within you.
HONOUR – 'A Sermon Series'. Honour is a spiritual backbone to life-giving relationships, to a healthy work environment, to strong churches, and a stable nation. The fruits of dishonour are so far reaching societally. CFG has been blessed with the fruits of honour reflected through the lives and culture of our international community. We are very excited to explore the life changing dimensions of honour and to enlarge the potential of what our lives will embrace through this.


Many thanks for signing up! We look forward to meeting you in March.
'FailSpace1: Picturing Success in Cultural Participation Projects' is a participatory workshop exploring the notion of 'success' in cultural participation projects. You can find out more about FailSpace at: www.culturalparticipation.co.uk.
Please note: this workshop session is aimed at participatory artists and professional arts practitioners. We are also holding a morning workshop session at the same venue aimed at community participants, amateur and/or voluntary arts and artists. Please ensure that you have selected the session you feel most appropriately describes your role.
You only need to sign up for one session (morning or afternoon).
We are also holding the same workshop at other venues in England and Scotland during Spring 2019.
The workshop forms part of the first phase of the new 2-year research project, 'Cultural Participation: Stories of Success, Histories of Failure', funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. The project is led by Dr Leila Jancovich (University of Leeds) and Dr David Stevenson (Queen Margaret University), in conjunction with artist and post-doctoral researcher, Dr Lucy Wright (University of Leeds / Axisweb). The aim of the research is to explore how cultural policy processes can better recognise, acknowledge and learn from failure.


A scroll is a rolled book form that predates the codex, or bound book. Ancient Egyptians created scrolls from papyrus reeds, but animal skin, especially parchment and vellum, and other organic materials have also been used in various civilizations and times.
Though the codex overtook the scroll as the more common book form in about the first century CE, the scroll is a format still used in Jewish traditions.
Seen here is a Megillat Ester, or Book of Esther, from the Hebrew Bible. This scroll is Yemen in origin and dates to around the 17th century. The Megillah is constructed of pieces of parchment sewn together. As with most scrolls, the writing appears on just one side of the writing surface.
In South and Southeast Asia, palm leaves, primarily from either the palyra or talipot trees, have been a popular writing medium for over two thousand years.
The manuscripts, which can record literary and scientific texts among other documents, are typically created by using a metallic stylus to etch letters into the dried leaf. The contrast and legibility of the script is enhanced by applying lampblack or turmeric mixed with aromatic oils chosen for their insect repellent qualities.
Very little is known about the example seen here, though it is indicated to be a Buddhist text from Myanmar likely from the 19th century.
…the art of printing, in whatever light it is viewed, has deserved respect and attention. From its ingenuity of contrivance, it was ever excited mechanical curiosity; from its intimate connexion with learning, it has justly claimed historical notice; and from its extensive influence on morality, politics, and religion, it is not become a subject of very important speculation.
The revolution of printing sparked by Johannes Gutenberg (circa 1400-1468) and his adaptation of the hand-press, metal moveable type, and ink was an all-encompassing intellectual, social, scientific, economic, religious, and cultural revolution.
Like the press seen in the upper left corner here, Gutenberg's hand-press was made of wood and was likely modeled on winepresses, a connection visible here with the printing press positioned next to a cider press demonstrating their technical similarities.
Encyclopaedia Britannica, or, A Dictionary of Arts, Sciences, and Miscellaneous Literature. Edinburgh: Printed for A. Bell and C. Macfarquhar, 1797.
Printing musical notation began in the mid-15th century, with the earliest examples of printed liturgical music appearing in Germany shortly after the publication of the Gutenberg Bible.
Early 16th century printed music placed the stem at the center of the note; however manuscript notes had stems either on the left or the right, following the scribe's preference. Musical type mimicked the scribes practice, however in ensuring that the type pieces could be invertible the foundries inevitably standardized the side of the note the stem appears on (down stem on the left, up stem on the right) and gradually manuscript music began following the same conventions.

A label, usually made from paper, pasted into a book identifying the book's owner. The practice of marking ownership in books dates to the Middle Ages (if not earlier); the first printed bookplate dating to the mid-15th century. Ex Libris, a term often interchangeable with bookplate, is Latin for From the Books of. Bookplates typically bear a name, motto, device, coat-of-arms, crest, badge, or any motif that relates to the owner of the book.
Bookplates are valuable tools in studying the provenance of books but have also been avidly collected as their own objects of interest since the mid-19th century. In this scrapbook of collected bookplates a variety of styles are on view, including a bookplate designed by artist Rockwell Kent.
Never judge a book by its cover. Until the introduction of mechanization to book production in the early 19th century, bookbinding was a discrete and separate process from printing. The style and look of early bindings may or may not tell us anything about the date and place of a book's publication. Books were bound typically for an owner or, potentially, a bookseller, but not a printer. Skilled craftsmen, practicing in workshops, crafted each binding by hand, employing simple tools and finishing the work in the fashion of the day, which was constantly evolving.
Once all the sheets of a printed book were folded, the binder sewed the signatures into a text block. Sewing structures evolved over time and can be helpful in dating early books. Early books were typically sewn over raised cords, resulting in the bumps seen on many spines. By the 17th century, binders were recessing cords by carving notches into the spine. Endcaps, bands at the top and bottom of a book's spine, were structural in the early days of bookbinding. Endcaps persist today as decorative vestiges.

Paper was introduced as a binding material in Europe by the late 16th century. Booksellers commonly bound books on "spec," and they gravitated toward cheap and easy options for decorating the works. Paper bindings were initially introduced as cheap, temporary bindings, but as paper patterns developed and tastes changed, these bindings became more elaborate, more beautiful, and more permanent. At the same time, binders increasingly added coloring to augment leather's beauty. This was an affordable, fast means of decorating.
Marbling was practiced in Japan as early as the 12th century, and the process was known and understood in Persia and Turkey long before it was imported into Western Europe. By 1600, France and the Netherlands established themselves as centers for its production, and the marble paper then spread quickly across Europe. Some of the most beautiful early bindings feature marbled paper, often with a leather spine and corners to extend its life.
François de Salignac de La Mothe-Fénelon's The adventures of Telemachus, the son of Ulysses London: Printed for W. Meadows ... [and 12 others], 1759.
talian craftsmen experimented with all manner of decorating papers in the 18th century. In addition to marbling, papers were commonly printed with patterns, such as this interlocking floral pattern.
Didascalici del secolo XVI. Venezia : Presso Antonio Zatta e figli, 1786.
Pastepaper, another common form of decorated paper, was created by mixing pigment into flour paste, brushing the mixture on to a sheet of paper, and then disrupting the surface by combing, brushing, sponging, or other means to form a pattern. Each sheet of pastepaper is unique, and possibilities for patterns and colors are endless.
François de Salignac de La Mothe-Fénelon's The adventures of Telemachus, the son of Ulysses. Iena: For Felix Fickelscherr, 1767.
This two-color pastepaper binding almost certainly postdates the printing of this book by more than 200 years. Each color was printed from a separate woodblock, dipped in a colored wheat paste mixture, and then sequentially stamped on paper to create the full design.
S. Tho. in Meteora Aristo. Commentaria. Venetiis : Apud Iuntas, 1547.
Binders daubed coloring with a sponge or cloth to create pronounced patterns. The chemicals used for this process were quite caustic, and often leather burned through in areas where coloring was applied thickly, such as in this example.
Lettres de M. Desp. de B* A Paris : Chez Butard ..., 1769.
Silver bookbindings, such as this ornate example, were handcrafted in Northern Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries, almost exclusively for the upper class and to cover small, personal copies of religious works, most commonly, the Bible and prayer books.
The Holy Bible. London: Printed by John Field ..., 1658.

IRA COMBS: Jayhawks First True Test for Coach Cal's Platoon System; Mark Stoops Has One More Try for
By Ira D. Combs Tri State Sports Media Service Inc. Now that the opening weekend of the 2014-15 college basketball season is behind us, UK sets at 2-0 with one lopsided win over Grand Canyon 85-45 and one win of the struggling variety against a very experienced Buffalo team 72-51 that played with great basketball savvy the first half where it held a five-point lead on the Cats at half time. However, at the end of the weekend, Cal's Platoon System passed its first official test. Now we move on to its first true Top 25 test against No. 5 Kansas in Chicago at the United Center, the home of the Chicago Bulls, on Tuesday night at approximately (9:15 EST on ESPN). A few of the talk shows, Internet, and social media faithful seemed to get under Cal's skin as he works his way throught his post-game media responsibilities after the Buffalo game. He mentioned on several occasions that if BBN was thinking all 10 players in the "Big Blue Platoon" system were expected to play at 100 percent capacity every game out, they would be sorely disappointed and that type talk was just as damaging pressure-wise as last year's 40-0 talk was. Actually, in my opinion, that's the beauty of this system. It provides multiple opportunities game in and game out for all players involved to have an off night and let someone else take up the slack without losing their spot in the rotation and/or platoon. No system and no college program is going to have a full proof mistake-free roster of players. That's just unrealistic to expect. But as we've all grown to understand over the years Kentucky basketball has its fair share of unrealistic fan expectations just like Alabama and Notre Dame football does, maybe even more. Three freshman lead UK in scoring in their second game against Buffalo. Tyler Ulius and Trey Lyles lead the Cats with 12 each and Devin Booker followed them with 10 points as well. All three came off the bench playing for the 2nd unit platoon system that usually enters the game around the 16-minute mark but also usually starts the 2nd half as well in the game substitution rotation. After the midweek nationally-televised battle with Kansas, UK returns to Rupp Arena this coming weekend for another Friday-Sunday set up against Boston University (Friday, 7:00 p.m., Fox Sports Net) and then hop over Saturday to play Montana State (Sunday, 6:00 p.m, SEC TV Network). Stoops And Gridiron Cats Lick Their Wounds For Two Weeks Before Season Finale After losing their last five games in a row and being outscored 113-47 the last two weekends to Georgia and Tennessee, Mark Stoops and his battle-weary Wildcats will be able to lick their wounds over the next two weeks with an open date this coming Saturday before the regular season finale against in-state rival Louisville at Papa Johns Stadium down in the river city on Thanksgiving weekend. A lot can be said about "The Streak" which now stands at five as we drift throught the last open date for the season. The first half of season offered up several scenarios of home games where the opponent was of similar skill level as Cats or on some occasions even less skilled. The bottom line is the roster presently only provides approximately 15 to 20 SEC-caliber players that can get on the field and most of those are freshmen, redshirt freshmen, or unseasoned sophomores. The remainder of the scholarship players on the roster is made up of redshirts not ready for competition and holdovers from the Joker Phillips era who simply don't have either the size, athleticism, or foot speed to compete in the SEC, especially against the Super Six upper division SEC teams. The 2-0 start followed up by strong performances against overrated Florida and South Carolina teams plus a unique offensive performance by Patrick Towles against Mississippi State sent a classic case of "Fools Gold" across BBN. In all reality, it wasn't fair or realistic to expect the players and/or coaches to perform the second half the way they did the first half. The best thing that can happen to UK football, in my opinion, is to get the 2014 season behind them ASAP and trim the last bit of dead wood from the roster of the Joker Phillips era and move on to preparing for 2015 where UK will have eight home games and another incoming class of recruits to start the development process. Keep in mind building college football programs, especially in the SEC, is a process that takes time and patience. Two wins in Year One, five wins in Year Two, then you can expect some semblance of a bowl eligible-type team in Year Three.

Q: "During" a Period of Time I'm working on a sentence (example below). It doesn't quite feel right:

I tried to count the number of cars driven during 1980-1990.

Specifically, the issue here is about usage of the preposition 'during' with the time period '1980-1990'. I'm not so sure how to treat that period as a grammatical object.
I've considered some alternatives:

I tried to count the number of cars driven throughout 1980-1990.

(Doesn't sound good.)

I tried to count the number of cars driven between 1980 and 1990.

(Ambiguous due to not specifying that the range of years is inclusive.)
Any suggestions on how I should do this?

A: All I think you're missing here is being specific:

I tried to count the number of cars driven during the period
  1980-1990.

A: "I tried counting the number of cars driven from 1980 to 1990."
"From" defines a beginning and end. "tried counting" rolls off the tongue better than "tried to count" IMO; fewer words, nicer rhythm.

A: You have to be specific about dates. If you want to include the whole years of 1980 and 1990, you just say

"I tried to count the number of cars driven from Jan 1st, 1980 through Dec 31st, 1990." (through = up to and including)

If you say

"I tried to count the number of cars driven during the eighties."

that wouldn't include 1990.

A: I think it's hard to get rid of the ambiguity unless you deal with it directly.

I tried to count the number of cars driven in the period from the beginning of 1980 to the end of 1990.
I tried to count the number of cars driven in the years 1980-1990 (inclusive).

Wildwood - Wildwood needs a deputy chief because the current chief is going to retire shortly and become the head of the county's police academy. That's correct, another high paid retirement job. If you take care of the current Wildwood administration you'll be rewarded with a great retirement, job.

Hapjeong Station (합정역) Line 2 – Station #238, Line 6 – Station #622
Seoul Sub→urban / May 3, 2011
This is a long post with lots of links – there's a lot going on in Hapjeong, people – so before we even get started we're going to get lunch, OK? OK. And we're going to go to Liz's favorite sushi joint, Sushi Kimpura, right next to Tapkun (탭꾼) the dance studio where she takes tap classes. To get there, head out Exit 2 and swing a left at Jandari-ro (잔다리로) where it'll be a block down on your left, just after the stoplight.
Kimpura is a small joint, just 15 bar seats and two small tables (plus three more outside when the weather's nice), but it's very inviting and quite popular, judging by the fact that it was full both times I've visited. A pair of automatic sake dispensers sits near the door, holding upturned bottles and keeping the sake at a constant 65 degrees Celsius. Five chefs work in an open kitchen and serve up the usual suspects: sushi, sashimi, hoe deopbap, udon, soba, and yakkisoba. I'm no connoisseur, but I've been quite pleased with both of my meals here and am especially a fan of the Sushi & Noodles for Lunch (초밥우동점심세트), which gets you a big bowl of udon, either four or six pieces of sushi (I can't remember), a couple dumplings, and a couple rice balls, all for only 10,000 won.
OK, ready to go now.
Few areas in Seoul allow one the opportunity to see the city reshaping and reinterpreting itself as well as the Hapjeong neighborhood does. In particular, it offers a living timeline of the ways in which outside influences have been received by Koreans over the past two centuries, from the earliest Christians to the latest baristas.
A walk to the river from Exit 7 is a trip into the past. Follow the street directly above the Number 2 line, Yanghwajin-gil (양화진길), as it heads toward the river, and after a few blocks you'll arrive at its end below a subway bridge, the sides of which are covered with abstractly Christian murals. Here, at the top of a wide set of wooden stairs, are the twin memorials of the Jeoldusan Martyr's Shrine and Yanghwajin Foreigner's Cemetery.
Alternatively, if you want a slightly more interesting stroll, decide to follow a random biker and make the walk one street east as we did, on Seongji-gil (성지길). Here you'll see a medley of foreign imprints that may have seemed barely imaginable a century, let alone twenty years, ago: Western-style cafes, tart shops, a Vietnamese restaurant, even a bike shop selling that ne plus ultra of modern hipsterdom: the fixie. It'll also take you past Star Empire Entertainment (스타제국), a record label, where, when we passed, a flock of about two-dozen teenage girls were waiting outside.
We walked up to one of them and, in a mix of pidgin English and pidgin Korean, pumped her for information:
Us: 'Why? Who's inside?'
Fangirl: 'ZE:A!'
Us: 'Who?'
Fangirl: 'ZE:A. Idol group.' (Korea's first Jewish pop stars?)
Us: 'How long did you wait?'
Fangirl: 'Two hours.'
Us: 'You come here every day?'
Fangirl: Confused silence. (I think we'll take that as a yes.)
Unfortunately, for our day's mission at least, ZE:A did not come out, and we left behind the studio, covered in magic marker graffiti professions of love for its employees, and continued along to our original destinations.
Constructed in 1967, the Martyr's Shrine was built to commemorate the Pyong-in Persecution, which had occurred a hundred and one years earlier. That year, an incursion by a French warship reached Kanghwa Island. The powerful Heungseon Daewongun, regent of Joseon and father of then 13-year old King Gojong, blamed Catholics for this affront and ordered a wholesale massacre in response. Daewongun wanted to send a message, and the location was chosen for its proximity to the Yanghwa Ferry Crossing and its popularity with the public as a recreational spot. Over 8,000 Catholics were killed here.
Today these peaceful grounds on top of a bluff house a chapel, museum, and numerous monuments to Korean saints and martyrs. Mass was being celebrated inside the chapel when we visited, and we were surprised both by how full it was on a Saturday afternoon and by the fact that many of the women – in particular the older ones – were wearing lace veils over their head, an old-fashioned Catholic practice that neither of us, who were both raised Catholic, had ever seen before.
The museum displays a small collection of artifacts related to the history of Catholicism on the peninsula, including handwritten missives explaining church teachings and the Grammaire Coréenne, the first ever grammar textbook for foreigners. There are also examples of small porcelain bowls that were buried with the recently deceased, as grave stones were forbidden on the graves of martyrs.
Outside, the shrine's central feature is a towering statue of Andrew Kim Taegon, the patron saint of Korea and first Korean-born Catholic priest. Beheaded in 1846 when he was only 25, Saint Andrew now stands watch over the memorial complex. A walking path with stone carvings of the Stations of the Cross horseshoes behind him, which some devotees were following, stopping to pray at each station. There was also a bank of red, blue, and yellow votive candles nearby, and we watched a young kid gaze at them for a long while, fascinated, before trying to blow some of them out. Fortunately, he was too short to be successful.
A short stroll west is the Yanghwajin Foreigners' Cemetery, where a number of early expat residents are buried, including a large percentage of missionaries. In a rather ironic turn, it was King Gojong himself who, in 1890, designated this a site for foreign missionaries.
The cemetery sits on a small hill, and narrow footpaths run between gravestones, a number of which suffered damage during the Korean War. The graves vary, from simple stone slabs marked 'Unknown' to more prominent markers indicating significant figures in the foreign community's past. Among these are the journalist and Korean independence advocate Homer Hulbert, whose tombstone famously reads 'I would rather be buried in Korea than in Westminster Abbey,' and Horace Grant Underwood, who founded Chosun Christian College, the precursor to Yonsei University.
Previous to hosting the cemetery, the site was also the location of a Joseon military base, established by King Yeongjo in 1754 to defend the river. Nothing remains, but part of the old base is marked out with what a plaque helpfully informs are 'long-and-big stones.'
After leaving the cemetery we walked back up Seongji-gil to see if the girls were still waiting outside for ZE:A to emerge, two hours after we first passed. Almost all of them had left, but the girl we'd talked to and her two friends were still holding vigil. 'No ZE:A?' we asked. 'No, not yet,' Fangirl answered.
While the riverbank enshrines the past, the rest of the Hapjeong neighborhood is a case study in contemporary Seoul's forward momentum and its significantly more welcoming attitudes toward foreign culture.
On the northwest corner of the station intersection an absolutely enormous and very un-Hongdae business-residential development is in the process of being erected, and just outside of Exit 3 is the Chai Gallery (자이갤러리), which you've no doubt noticed if you've ever passed by, as it's one of the city's more architecturally exciting buildings. We'd wondered for a long time exactly what it was, and now, casing the neighborhood, was a perfect chance to find out. We walked in, expectations high, and strode up to the bespoke man working at the reception desk. He explained that there was no art gallery, no exhibition space, nothing for public use. It was just a venue for the Chai construction company to exhibit model apartments and living spaces.
Really Chai? That's the best you can do? You've got a stunning building in one of the city's coolest neighborhoods and you can think of nothing better to do with the space than to turn it into a glorified showroom? How about an art gallery, or one featuring cutting-edge interior design, or an exhibition of green design expanding and improving upon the rather lackluster one in the garden outside? In any event, the gallery and the development next to the station are clear indications that the neighborhood is going to see big changes in the future and – for those of us who prize the area's independent and idiosyncratic character – not all of them may be for the best.
The cosmopolitan trend evident on Seongji-gil is even more pronounced on Yanghwaro-6-gil (양화로6길), more commonly known simply as Café Street. Hang a right here after emerging from Exit 5 and you'll find yourself on one of the coolest streets in the city. As the Hongdae neighborhood has become increasingly well-known and commercialized, its most interesting and idiosyncratic places have migrated toward its edges, including the area around Hapjeong, though judging by the developments occurring on the main intersection this neighborhood may not stay under the radar for long.
After you pass a rather uninspired mural wall – unimaginative copies of well-known works by Picasso, Warhol,
and Keith Haring – you'll see that, as the name would suggest, Café Streethosts an abundance of cafes. You won't find any of the big chains here, though; every shop is independent and unique. As far as caffeine goes, you're spoiled for choice. We picked one more or less at random and popped into the tiny, second floor Jeulgeowoon Book / Café (즐거운북카페) where Swedish shoegazer pop, shelves full of books, and phenomenally moist brownies are the perfect pairings to their quality coffee. In warmer months a small outdoor patio offers a chance to people-watch.
There's more to Café Streetthan just cafes, though; it's lined with small galleries, salons, and one-of-a-kind boutiques. You'll also find the artisanal bakery October, which bakes bread as good as you'll find anywhere in the city. We noticed it on our visit but didn't go in, and were oblivious to its quality until served up some of its bread the next week at a party hosted by our good friend and TBS eFM host John Lee. 'This is some satisfying bread whether it's dipped in a stew, chomped as a bruschetta or enjoyed solo,' he said. 'I particularly like the sourdough baguette as it has the right amount of crunch and chewiness.' Preach.
Where Café Street meets Parking Street sits Rolling Hall (롤링홀), a very good venue for live music, and a large gray building called In the Paper (인더페이퍼).
Outside influences, from Catholicism to espresso, have by now been fully absorbed into contemporary Korea. But it's not just foreign culture that's finding outlets for expression in Hapjeong. The country has a venerable tradition of papermaking – most notably using mulberry bark to create hanji – and here this craft gets a modern makeover.
In the basement is a gallery where, when we visited, there was an exhibition of calligraphy by 강병인, who had written messages composed by various celebrities – from Nichkhun of 2 PM to punk band Crying Nut – which were then being sold as a fundraiser for The Beautiful Store, a wonderful organization we strongly recommend you check out.
Upper floors house a café (of course), studios, and shops, where you can buy both sheets of paper in practically any color imaginable as well as a variety of paper-based products.
There is also a design school, where new and creative takes are given on an ancient craft.

Woman Breaks Neck Sneezing…And Then Again While Laughing
Drew Weisholtz Published: June 2, 2017
Bodily functions are not kind to this poor lady.
An Australian woman named Monique Jeffrey broke her neck back in April while laughing at a co-worker's joke.
This crushing news comes after an equally bizarre incident in 2011 when she broke her neck in the same spot while sneezing in bed.
The mother of two is now in a halo -- again -- to help her recovery. "I've had two kids and getting the halo is worse than childbirth," said Jeffrey, speaking volumes about the agony of her plight.
Jeffrey must wear the halo for six weeks and then undergo rehab to get back to full health. Her sister has also created a GoFundMe page to help pay for her medical bills (who knew getting help paying medical bills outside the U.S. was a thing?). They've already surpassed the $8,000 goal, which is great because you don't want Jeffrey coughing up that kind of cash because, with her track record, she might lacerate a kidney in the process.
Give Jeffrey credit -- she's keeping her immobile head up high about the whole thing. "It's not terminal, I'm going to be fine, but it does suck a bit," she said. "You just have to laugh about it." Although, knowing her history, that's probably not wise.

Werner reveals why he joined Chelsea
Chelsea striker Timo Werner has opened up on why he left RB Leipzig for Chelsea this summer.
The 24-year-old who joined Chelsea on a five-year deal for £49m said Chelsea's desire to win titles convinced him to join.
"I joined Chelsea because I wanted to try something new," he told DFB media.
"I had four very successful years in Leipzig, but the Premier League is something different and I want to prove that I can score goals in different leagues.
"The league is physical, so I will have to work on that side of my game. Chelsea is a huge club that wants to win titles and we can definitely do that with the signings that we have made. That's why I am here."
Werner who is currently in Stuttgart with the Germany national team said he's enjoyable the return to his home town.
"I'm from Stuttgart, so I love coming home," he continued.
"It's all so familiar. My last international match here was very successful (two goals in a 6-0 win against Norway back in 2017).
"So it would be nice to have a repeat performance on Thursday, even if we are facing a stronger opponent this time."

Pattern Energy Announces Closing of Public Offering of Class A Common Stock
San Francisco, July 28, 2015 /CNW/ — Pattern Energy Group Inc. (the "Company" or "Pattern Energy") (NASDAQ: PEGI) (TSX: PEG) today announced that it has closed the previously announced underwritten public offering of its Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Class A Common Stock"). The Company sold 5,435,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock at a public offering price of $23.00 per share (the "Equity Offering") for total gross proceeds of approximately $125 million. The underwriters of the Equity Offering have a 30-day option, exercisable until August 21, 2015, to purchase up to an additional 815,250 shares of Class A Common Stock, solely to cover over-allotments, if any.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Equity Offering, together with the net proceeds from a concurrent private offering of $225 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes, for the repayment of a portion of the outstanding indebtedness incurred in connection with the Company's purchase of interests in the K2, Lost Creek and Post Rock wind projects, the acquisition of non-controlling interests in the Gulf Wind project, the prepayment of Gulf Wind project level indebtedness and general corporate purposes.
The Equity Offering was made through an underwriting group led by BMO Capital Markets, BofA Merrill Lynch and Citigroup, as joint book-running managers of the offering and the representatives of the underwriters.
The notes referred to herein were offered only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. In Canada, the notes were offered on a prospectus-exempt basis to accredited investors (as defined under applicable Canadian securities laws) who were also qualified institutional buyers.
A registration statement relating to the Company's Class A Common Stock has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The specific terms of the Equity Offering are described in a prospectus supplement that has been filed with the SEC in connection with the Equity Offering. The Equity Offering was made in Canada under a supplement to the Company's MJDS shelf prospectus filed with Canadian securities regulatory authorities. Copies of the final prospectus supplement and/or Canadian MJDS shelf prospectus and supplement relating to the Equity Offering may be obtained from BMO Capital Markets, Attn: Equity Syndicate Department, 3 Times Square, New York, NY 10036, by telephone at (800) 414-3627 or by email at [email protected]; BofA Merrill Lynch, 222 Broadway, New York, NY 10038, Attn: Prospectus Department, by email at [email protected]; and Citigroup, c/o Broadridge Financial Solutions, 1155 Long Island Avenue, Edgewood, NY 11717, by telephone at (800) 831-9146 or by email at [email protected].

Texas Neurology Leases 40K SF in 6080 NCX Office Building
Texas Neurology has signed a 15-year lease in 6080 NCX, a four-story office building located at 6080 North Central Expressway in Dallas. The healthcare company will occupy 40,252 square feet on the building's first floor. Mike Gosslee, Senior Director at Cushman & Wakefield, represented Texas Neurology in their property search and negotiation.
Texas Neurology, which was previously headquartered in Lakewood, provides diagnostic services and patient care for patients with a variety of neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's, muscular dystrophy and ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease.
Texas Neurology sought a new office location that would provide better access to its satellite locations in Richardson, University Park and East Dallas. 6080 NCX met that need, while also putting the company within closer proximity to several of Dallas' leading hospitals.
"We worked with Texas Neurology for almost a year and a half to determine the best option for their next location," Gosslee said. "Through our normal process at Cushman & Wakefield, we started the search early, which is especially important for such a large assignment. We considered a variety of options, from purchasing land to do a build-to-suit to going with a landlord-owned property. Ultimately, we found an excellent location that is entirely on the ground floor, providing great efficiency. It's extremely rare to find 40,000 square feet on one floor in this type of urban setting, and we expect Texas Neurology will do very well there."
"As we started our search for a new headquarters, we wanted to find an office that would be a good fit both now and in the future, while also being more centrally located," said David Evans, CEO of Texas Neurology. "Our new location near Mockingbird Station will be convenient for our patients and beneficial for employees."
Texas Neurology is expected to take occupancy in the first or second quarter of 2020.
6080 NCX was originally constructed as a build-to-suit in 2005. The office building's unique design incorporates a three-floor parking garage built on top of the ground floor, which was meant to provide additional parking to support the area's rapid growth.

I loved that passage in Don McClean's classic rock 'n' roll song of the early 1970s, "American Pie," as I loved the overall feeling of despair and sadness that permeated the music. I would listen to it in on the radio and hum along as I drove in my car, oblivious to what all of it literally meant.
I didn't know what the song meant, and I didn't care. It was enough that it spoke to me emotionally, conveying a feeling of times past, of things irretrievably lost, of the end of something good, of the sadness surrounding that good which would never return again.
I didn't need to know what it meant. Its mood was all that mattered.
To my surprise, I learned much later that the song was about the deaths of Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and the Big Bopper in a plane crash in 1959. Their deaths symbolized to McClean not only the death of the '50s musical innocence but the end of his belief in the American dream.
As he put it in a 2015 interview, he wrote the song because "things were headed in the wrong direction … becoming less idyllic. I don't know if you consider that wrong or right, but it is a morality song, in a sense." ("Gloomy Don McClean reveals the meaning of 'American Pie,' Justin Wm. Moyer, The Washington Post, April 8, 2015).
In a sense, my disregard for the meaning of the song for those many years is like President Donald Trump supporters not caring about whether the president is lying to them or not. Some of them know he is but don't care. It's the feeling that he engenders in them that matters, mood being the meaning. The specifics of what he has to say get lost in translation. All they hear is the fire and fury rhetoric, the aggrieved anger, the fact that he "gets them" emotionally just like Don McClean "got me" and so many of my generation some 45 years ago.
Recall, if you will, on the 2016 campaign a very prescient columnist saying that "the press takes him literally but not seriously; his supporters take him seriously but not literally." ("Taking Trump seriously, not literally," Salena Zito, The Atlantic, Sept. 23, 2016).
To be fair to our president, I don't recall as a nascent liberal back in the '60s paying much attention to President Kennedy's words in his better-known speeches ("Ask not …", " Ich ein un Berliner") as much as I was captivated by the cadence of his voice and the sound of his Boston accent.
What will it take for Trump backers to question the lyrics broadcast on his tweets and rants? I wish I knew. A major economic turndown? A military conflict that worsens like Afghanistan and Iraq and Syria did? Undeniable proof in the some-time-to-come Mueller report that the president is guilty of offenses that could constitute "high crimes and misdemeanors"?
The cult of personality is a powerful aphrodisiac that defies logic, reason, evidence and all things objective. It may be as impossible to wean a Trump groupie away from their idol as it would be to accomplish the same for an Elvis Presley, Prince or Michael Jackson worshipper.
It is very hard to get the listener to listen to the meaning of the singer's lyrics when they have fallen madly in love with the singer and the song.

Utopians are ambivalent, in fact illogical if not morally arrogant, about killing for food or defense. They eat animals but "they do not allow their citizens to be accustomed to butchering animals" but rather have "bondsmen" do this because they believe that butchering animals for food "gradually eliminates compassion, the finest feeling of human nature." (68) Bondsmen are apparently immune to such a descent into moral corruption, or else they are bondsmen exactly because they are already morally degraded and so either immune to further corruption or they are beyond moral rectification, and therefore the moral consequences of killing for food cannot matter for their moral selves. So bondsmen who butcher animals either have no compassion, it having been gradually eliminated through butchering, or because their moral precondition, their qualification of moral impurity, includes diminished compassion from which their moral descent continues, or else they have compassion and, being bondsmen, they are somehow immune from the moral consequences of killing for food, either because of their moral deficiency or because bondsmen have a moral strength that the citizens of Utopia lack.
The game was released on March 13, 2012, for download on the PlayStation Network.[18] A PlayStation Home Game Space, or themed area, based on Journey was released on March 14, 2012, and is similar in appearance to the game.[19] A retail "Collector's Edition" of the game was released on August 28, 2012. In addition to Journey, the disc-based title includes Flow and Flower; creator commentaries, art, galleries, and soundtracks for all three games; non-related minigames; and additional content for the PlayStation 3.[20] In September 2012, Sony and Thatgamecompany released a hardcover book entitled "The Art of Journey", by the game's art director Matt Nava, containing pieces of art from the game ranging from concept art to final game graphics.[21]
His most recent book, a New York Times bestseller, is "Manhunt: The Ten Year Search for bin Laden, from 9/11 to Abbottabad." The book is being translated into nine languages and HBO has produced a theatrical release documentary based upon it. The film, for which Bergen is the executive producer, was in the Sundance Film 2013 competition and won the Emmy award for Best Documentary. The Washington Post named "Manhunt" one of the best non-fiction books of 2012 and The Guardian named it one of the key books on Islamist extremism. The Sunday Times (UK) named it the best current affairs book of 2012 and The Times (UK) named it one of the best non-fiction books of 2012. The book was awarded the Overseas Press Club Cornelius Ryan award for best non-fiction book of 2012 on international affairs.
In the treatment of education, Campanella reveals himself as a seventeenth-century thinker, placing great emphasis on the study of the sciences, all of the sciences. He has a plan for spreading information on all branches of knowledge through pictures displayed throughout the city on walls and in corridors of public buildings — visual aids to education for persons of all ages. Their leaders believe that the advancement of scientific knowledge is the principal key to the betterment of the race. The report claims that those people have developed not only the telescope but also such modern inventions as power-propelled ships and flying machines.
Gattaca is a science fiction film directed by Andrew Niccol, starring Ethan Hawke, Uma Thurman, and Jude Law. It depicts the life in the futuristic dystopian Earth society, in which quality genetic makeup controls the destiny of every person. The main protagonist Vincent was born in an old-fashioned way. He is seen as genetically inferior and is doomed to a life of servitude. He tries to change his destiny by buying identity of Jerome Eugene Morrow, a potential swimming star whose career ended in a car accident.
Considerable emphasis is given to scientific experimentation, aimed at improving industry, health, and general living conditions. To that end a great laboratory for the natural sciences is operated, and an exhibition hall of science, industry, and the arts offers educational opportunities through scale models of machinery and mural paintings similar to those in the City of the Sun.
Yet, the puzzle is that some of the practices and institutions of the Utopians, such as the ease of divorce, euthanasia and both married priests and female priests, seem to be polar opposites of More's beliefs and the teachings of the Catholic Church of which he was a devout member. Another often cited apparent contradiction is that of the religious tolerance of Utopia contrasted with his persecution of Protestants as Lord Chancellor. Similarly, the criticism of lawyers comes from a writer who, as Lord Chancellor, was arguably the most influential lawyer in England. It can be answered, however, that as a pagan society Utopians had the best ethics that could be reached through reason alone, or that More changed from his early life to his later when he was Lord Chancellor.[8]
Thomas More's Utopia has spurred debate, reflection, and critical thinking since its original publication in the 16th Century. More's fictional island of Utopia provides an exploration of issues that shook him and his contemporaries and continue to be problematic in the modern day; the details of More's utopian society, such as the permissibility of euthanasia and comments on chastity in the priesthood, combine with proposals of coexisting varied religions to put forth a work that incorporates the totality of More's religious, sociological, and philosophical talents.
The first lesson West learns is that all industry and all institutions are under the control of the national government, a system which, he is informed, has proved to be far more effective than the earlier one of free, private enterprise because of the elimination of wasteful competition. These enormous nationwide political and industrial institutions are structured on the plan of a military organization.
Colossus: The Forbin Project (1970) is a science fiction thriller film, which was adapted from the novel "Colossus" by Dennis Feltham Jones. This classic SF movie describes the events that happened when the powerful supercomputer (which controlled military defense capabilities of both Soviet Union and the USA) became sentient and held the entire world as a hostage in its quest to secure world peace.
Education is regarded as important and is continued to age 21 for all citizens. During their years of schooling, the pupils are introduced to many trades, professions, and arts in order to discover where their talents and interests lie, to enable them to choose the vocation that will bring them the greatest satisfaction in their adult years. At age 21, everyone enters the work force, "the industrial army," where he or she will serve up to the age of 45. Women and men are treated equally with respect to education, career in the work force, compensation. There is some distinction made regarding the occupations of men and women, and there are provisions for pregnancy.
One highly influential interpretation of Utopia is that of intellectual historian Quentin Skinner.[9] He has argued that More was taking part in the Renaissance humanist debate over true nobility, and that he was writing to prove the perfect commonwealth could not occur with private property. Crucially, Skinner sees Raphael Hythlodaeus as embodying the Platonic view that philosophers should not get involved in politics, while the character of More embodies the more pragmatic Ciceronian view. Thus the society Raphael proposes is the ideal More would want. But without communism, which he saw no possibility of occurring, it was wiser to take a more pragmatic view.
Quentin Skinner's interpretation of Utopia is consistent with the speculation that Stephen Greenblatt made in The Swerve: How the World Became Modern. There, Greenblatt argued that More was under the Epicurean influence of Lucretius's On the Nature of Things and the people that live in Utopia were an example of how pleasure has become their guiding principle of life.[10] Although Greenblatt acknowledged that More's insistence on the existence of an afterlife and punishment for people holding contrary views were inconsistent with the essentially materialist view of Epicureanism, Greenblatt contended that it was the minimum conditions for what the pious More would have considered as necessary to live a happy life.[10]
The name Raphael, though, may have been chosen by More to remind his readers of the archangel Raphael who is mentioned in the Book of Tobit (3:17; 5:4, 16; 6:11, 14, 16, 18; also in chs. 7, 8, 9, 11, 12). In that book the angel guides Tobias and later cures his father of his blindness. While Hythlodaeus may suggest his words are not to be trusted, Raphael meaning (in Hebrew) "God has healed" suggests that Raphael may be opening the eyes of the reader to what is true. The suggestion that More may have agreed with the views of Raphael is given weight by the way he dressed; with "his cloak... hanging carelessly about him"; a style which Roger Ascham reports that More himself was wont to adopt. Furthermore, more recent criticism has questioned the reliability of both Gile's annotations and the character of "More" in the text itself. Claims that the book only subverts Utopia and Hythlodaeus are possibly oversimplistic.

The street is alive with local shoppers and international visitors returning to the experience of shopping in person again. Boutiques and businesses have not been holding back, activating the street with immersive installations, artist collaborations and pop-ups tailor-made for the City of Angels. One can sense a distinctly thoughtful approach to luxury and a new focus on how it fits one's lifestyle. Seasonal edits on the street certainly reflect this shift. Here are some of the highlights:
1. Launched in grand Cartier fashion with a who's who of edgy, creative types, the CLASH
unlimited capsule collection punctuates the unconventional, genderless spiked CLASH de
Cartier jewelry line with Tahitian pearls and onyx. Its elevated but unfussy armor is only conspicuous to those in the know.
Cartier Beverly Hills, 370 N. Rodeo Drive.
2. Zegna's Artistic Director Alessandro Sartori transforms the very concept of luxury with a Fall/ Winter 2021 "What Makes a Man" collection. Heavy on hybrid "luxury leisurewear," the pieces seem to be a direct response to how men live now. The house's use of fabric and its evolution towards a new generation of knitting techniques is impressive, enabling tailored looks marked by exquisite softness.
Ermenegildo Zegna, 337 N. Rodeo Drive.
3. To commemorate its 45th anniversary, MCM, a fashion house known for its logo driven accessories and apparel, opened a limited pop-up cafe on Rodeo Drive offering complimentary hand-crafted coffees and refreshments. It's a new way to shop luxury that speaks to the social creatures in all of us. Inside, the new Vintage Jacquard pieces are the draw. The reimagined Visetos monogram is available in three colorways and employs a weaving technique traditional of the Bauhaus Textile School. The backpack is a back-to-school favorite.

4. Just dropped at the Harry Winston flagship store on Rodeo Drive in September is the collection of colorful, mood-boosting gemstones in the new, handmade high jewelry collection, "Winston With Love."

5. To inaugurate the company's new two-story digs, Moncler, known for pushing the boundaries in luxury padded outerwear, is collaborating with L.A. artist Steven Harrington. Harrington created a limited-edition art toy Pupazzo in three colors and several large-scale in-store sculptures located in Moncler's spectacular, newly designed flagship boutique on Rodeo Drive.
Moncler, 328 N. Rodeo Drive.
6. Frette's sumptuous bedding suddenly seems essential for lazy mornings in bed. The new seasonal hues of aloe, amaryllis and dark azure evoke the calm of nature and these masterfully crafted linens even withstand the excited paws of four-legged family members. Matching, pure cashmere throws lend texture and still more coziness.
Frette, 445 N. Rodeo Drive.
7. Louis Vuitton's Savoire Faire event has landed in L.A. after wowing in Singapore and Milan. A capsule collection of iconic hard-sided trunks and the house's Objets Nomades lifestyle design will be shown at an exclusive private location and available for special order. In store now, however, is Virgil Abloh's Men's Fall-Winter 2021 collection-his sixth for the houses. Described as a scholarly exploration of unconscious biases, it lands with dramatic effect. The vivid injection of colored knitwear is just what the doctor ordered.
Louis Vuitton Beverly Hills, 295 N. Rodeo Drive.
8. Fashion insiders love the intimate inspiration behind the Christian Dior Caro bag, named after Monsieur Dior's nickname for his sister Catherine. Crafted in calfskin with Cannage
stitching, the crowning touch is a clasp reminiscent of the seal on a Christian Dior perfume
bottle. It's a true forever piece, available in scrumptiously deep fall colors.
Christian Dior, 309 N. Rodeo Drive.
10. A new arrival on the street is Italian fashion house Golden Goose, mostly known for its iconic sneakers. The 1,200 square foot store is inspired by the industrial origins and machinery- heavy town near Venice, where the brand was born. There are plans to periodically drop local exclusives as well as more radical designs conceived by the brand's Italian design team. The store carries the full women's, men's and kid's collections along with accessories and small leather goods that will only be available at the Rodeo Drive boutique.

Home Entertainment Movies Actress Miya Horcher Leads With Love
Actress Miya Horcher Leads With Love
Beckie Lindsey
Lead with love. A sweet and simple phrase—but not so easy to live out—particularly in high school.
Actress Miya Horcher would know. She plays the bullied and unpopular student, Cassandra Evans, in the faith-based film Switched.
Think Freaky Friday meets Mean Girls, but with examples of what it looks like to love your neighbor in everyday life including using social media for the good. While Switched is a fun body-swap movie, it also delivers relatable teen angst, problem-solving, and evolving friendships.
SoCal Voice is an advocate for faith-based films and is pleased to bring you updates on current and upcoming movies on a regular basis. With the growing popularity of this delightful film, we were honored to interview Miya Horcher about Switched, her faith, acting, and more.
Acting from experience
Miya endured her share of bullying in school. She never thought those painful experiences would turn out to be helpful until she landed the role of Cassandra Evans in the movie Switched. She's also discovered that dealing with rejection goes with the territory as an actress. "It's a hard business. You get told no more often than yes," Miya says. "In the beginning, it was so hard when I didn't get the part. I wanted to give up. But I've also learned so much like faith in God and myself."
Now twenty-one, Miya started acting when she was thirteen. Although there were hardships and disappointments along the way, she continued to pray and trust God's plans. "Proverbs 16:9 says we can make our plans but the Lord directs our steps. So, when I feel overwhelmed, I trust that God has bigger plans for me even if I didn't book a job. Sometimes I don't know what those plans are but I trust Him to get me to where I need to be."
Along with her faith in God, Miya's love for acting and encouragement from her family helped her learn to tell herself she was not a quitter and to keep trying. Rather than allow it to get her down, she chose to use the difficulty as fuel to try harder.
It runs in the family
One of five siblings, Miya has two older brothers and two sisters—one older and one younger. Her sisters, Madalyn and Madison, are also actors. When they were growing up, Miya's mom stayed home with the kids and her dad served in the navy. As a navy family, the Horcher's moved all over the United States and a few foreign countries. "I'm not sure how many times we moved, but it had to be in the double digits. But no matter where we lived, we always went to church and had family time every Sunday. It was a day to relax and praise God."
Switched crew.
Although Miya's younger sister is the only one still living at home with her parents, the Horcher family remains close-knit.
When Miya read the script for Switched she was hooked. "It was organic and funny without being cheesy. And I loved that it was faith-based."
Miya's character Cassandra plays the guitar which meant Miya took a crash course in playing basic chords for the movie. "The director John Graham was so nice and patient with me even though he told me I had only a week to learn the song!" Miya laughs.
During filming, the entire team worked together on set seamlessly as lasting friendships were built. Miya continues to stay in touch with the other actors including writer and producer, Alexandra Boylan who also plays the science teacher in the film.
Perhaps even more rewarding than starring in the movie is the outpouring from viewers. "People have been telling me how Switched is helping them and that is such an amazing thing," Miya says. "This is what I want to do for the rest of my life."
Miya learning guitar.
Miya will continue her education with online classes at Pierce Community College in LA.
Although acting has been slow due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Miya continues to work on acting, dancing, and music. She hopes to branch out in other forms of entertainment in the future.

I'll Push You Documentary in Theaters November 2nd, 2017
REVIEW: Does 'Smallfoot' bash religion?


Zenenet is a beautiful red blotch reticulated girl that fires down with a very clean white background. She is very sweet, gentle, easy to handle and has a curious personality. This girl has produced many beautiful babies, including the famous Vapona.


Drew Bishop, manager of baseball operations and a former Longhorns pitcher, filed a memorandum Feb. 6 alerting Texas head coach Augie Garrido that he was dating a student employee in Intercollegiate Athletics.
"I do not have evaluative or supervisory oversight of her," Bishop, a 2008 graduate of UT, wrote to Garrido in a document obtained by The Daily Texan.
Bishop told Garrido he had reviewed the situation with Rich Burns, Athletics' assistant director for human resources, and it was determined there was no conflict of interest or any "other areas of concern under HOP 3-3050, Consensual Relationships."
Bishop's letter to Garrido came six days after The Daily Texan obtained correspondence between athletics director DeLoss Dodds and assistant football coach Major Applewhite regarding "inappropriate, consensual" relations with a student trainer during the week of the 2009 Fiesta Bowl.
Also, three days prior to Bishop's letter, the UT System Board of Regents announced a task force to review policies regarding student-employee relationships.
In October, women's track and field coach Bev Kearney admitted to an "intimate consensual relationship" with a student-athlete that occurred 10 years ago. Kearney resigned in January after learning the University was ready to begin the termination process.


On a weekly basis, it appears someone gets swindled from their cryptocurrency in one form or the other. Whether Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, or Monero hackers have been quick to pounce on the new technology seemingly rewriting the rules of economics and trade. Some hackers use nasty pieces of malware while others are content merely to trick users into sending cryptocurrencies to the wrong address. In the latest instance, trickery was the name of the game. An as yet unknown attacker has tricked Experty ICO participants into sending Ethereum funds to the wrong wallet address. This was done by merely sending emails with a fake pre-ICO sale announcement to Experty users who signed up for notifications.
An ICO (Initial Coin Offering) is similar to a classic IPO (Initial Public Offering), but instead of stocks in a company, buyers get tokens in an online platform. Users can then keep the tokens until the issuing company decides to repurchase them, or they can sell the tokens to other users for Ethereum. ICOs are becoming a popular alternative to the classic IPO as it allows them to generate capital they would otherwise struggle in getting from traditional financial institutions. This is where Experty comes in by offering a service where users pay with cryptocurrencies instead of money. This was termed a blockchain-based VoIP calling system and was intended to help the company raise funds in the form of the Ethereum cryptocurrency. The notion generated a lot of interest and Inc.com ranked the Experty ICO as one of the top 10 ICOs to watch in 2018.
The brief campaign only spanned two days, those being January 26 and 27, in which Experty users who had signed up to receive notifications began to receive the fake email. In the email, users were asked to send money to an Ethereum wallet if they wanted to buy EXY (tokens provided by Experty) tokens and be part of the ICO. The email could be proved as fake as because the actual Experty ICO was scheduled for January 31, and not the week of the campaign. The email users received was not sent by the Experty team, but by a hacker. A copy of the email can be viewed courtesy of security researcher Indrajeet Bhuyan. The Ethereum wallet address in this email is not associated with the Experty team, who previously announced they would be handling sales of Experty tokens only via the Bitcoin Suisse service.
The Ethereum wallet address of the hacker currently shows that the trick has earned the person well over 150,000 USD. This amount was generated from a total of 74 transactions. However, this amount could be far higher as some of the emails had a different wallet address. Both Experty and Bitcoin Suisse are now warning users not to send money to this wallet or any other address associated with the fake emails.
In a statement released by Experty, the hacker was able to get his hands on this list of emails by compromising the computer of one of the people who carried out Experty's PoC (Proof-of-Care) review. Under normal circumstances, the emails of people who signed up to be notified of the Experty ICO are kept private. Bitcoin Suisse stressed in their statement that no personal information, such KYC (Know Your Customer) details, were leaked. It was also noted in the statement that users associated with Experty received emails from the following address ico.experty.bitcoinsuisse@tindie.com. These are not from Bitcoin Suisse or Experty. As such users are told in no uncertain terms to send funds to the wallet addresses provided.
For those users who unfortunately sent funds to the hacker's wallet getting those funds back will be an impossible task. Users who sent Ethereum to the hacker's wallet will not be able to get their money back. Other companies who had their ICOs compromised in the past year have offered the equivalent of their respective tokens as reparations for any incidents.
In an article published in Forbes, it has become increasingly clear that ICO is a hotbed for scammers. One of the reasons for this is the lack of answers with regard to whether or even how securities law applies to ICOs. In early December 2017, Cyber Unit took its first action, against PlexCoin, which promised investors a more than 13x return within a month. Since August of that year, PlexCoin had raised $15 million from investors both in the U.S. and beyond. In order to prevent PlexCoin from swindling further Cyber Unit was granted an emergency asset freeze against Dominic Lacroix, whom it called a "recidivist Quebec securities law violator," his partner Sabrina Paradis-Royer and PlexCorps. It also filed charges against LaCroix and PlexCorps alleging that they sold securities claiming investments in PlexCoin would bring profits of 1,354% profit in less than 29 days.
While ICOs may offer a great investment opportunity investors should be wary and do their research. For instance, if an ICO does not need a blockchain infrastructure or a native token it may be a scam and alarm bells should ring. Another thing to look out for is whether the ICO is proposing open-source code and it is non-existent or empty GitHub page it would be wiser not to part with your hard-earned money. One of the universal truths behind scams is if it is too good to be true it is probably a scam and you should be wary.

Looks like Largo foods are at it again.

THE PRESIDENT OF the Camogie Association has hit out the controversial Hunk Dorys crisps adverts which depict scantily-clad women playing GAA.
Joan O'Flynn was speaking after the launch of the latest ad campaign by Hunky Dorys makers Largo Foods this week in which two girls teams in gold and emerald coloured, tight-fitting bikini costumes try their hand at a bit of Gaelic football.
It follows on from last year's newspaper advertising campaign which featured the girls playing rugby.
The hugely successful campaign, which increased the Hunky Dorys brand's net worth by over €1 million, led to widespread controversy and criticism with the adverts subject of a number of complaints to the advertising watchdog.
And the Advertising Standards Authority for Ireland has already received complaints in relation to this year's campaign.
Speaking on RTÉ's Morning Ireland, O'Flynn said the ads were ill-timed given that camogie's top teams will be in action at various levels in the All-Ireland finals at Croke Park this Sunday.
She said the ads "trivialises the talent and ability of women in sport" by focussing on their physical appearance rather than their sporting ability. She said that more "responsible advertising would focus on the skill and the ability of the players as athletes."
The GAA has already said it was not consulted on the campaign.
Meath-based manufacturers Largo Foods, which owns the Hunky Dorys brand, has broken its silence on the controversy, CEO Ray Coyle telling the Irish Independent "we have to attract attention one way or another".
But O'Flynn said this morning: "It may travel, and it's a well established fact that that sort of advertising sells, but it sells on what I would call fairly poor values."
I had just gone back to buying that brand, it's back on the banned list now.
