We live in a desert of the real"
In the 1980s and 90s, Jean Baudrillard turned away from Marxism and structuralism to post-structuralism. He became fascinated by how media affect our perception of reality and the world. He concluded that in the postmodern media-laden condition, we experience something called "the death of the real": we live our lives in the realm of hyperreality, connecting more and more deeply to things like television sitcoms, music videos, virtual reality games, or Disneyland, things that merely simulate reality.
"The very definition of the real has become: that of which it is possible to give an equivalent reproduction...The real is not only what can be reproduced, but that which is always already reproduced: that is the hyperreal...which is entirely in simulation."
Baudrillard's central claim about postmodern culture is that we live in a "desert of the real," a cultural space where television, film, and computer images are more 'real' to us than the non-media physical reality that surrounds us.
How can you alter reality?
Multiplicity - You will take photos of the same subject in one scene and merge them together. Your subject must interact with themselves in the image.
3. Use a combination of masking, erasing, and copying/pasting to merge your subjects into one image.
Research - Find 5-10 images that use this technique and place them onto a mood board. Write a short reflection as to why these images are intriguing/inspiring and how you might approach this project.
RESEARCH your book. You can't design a successful cover if you don't know what your book is about! Sparknotes.com is very helpful if you are not already familiar with your book.
Themes/motifs/symbols: Does your book have any themes/motifs/symbols throughout the book?
Setting: Where does your story take place?
Audience: Who do you want to buy your book based on its cover?
Create a mood-board in Photoshop.
Type up research and include it in various places on your mood board.
Gather images that relate to your research.
Gather images that inspire you because of their look/feel/style/technique.
Write notations explaining your image choices and why those images relate to your book.
Project: Create a series of 2 -3 images that create a world in which toys are alive. Use your knowledge of tilt shift, short depth of field, and manual camera mode to make the scenes believable.
An individual's identity is made up of many different factors.
Consider. What is important to you? How would you describe yourself? Write ten words that are central to your identity. These words can be anything, including social categories such as ethnicity and gender, adjectives describing your personality, issues or beliefs you care about, and your favorite pastimes and activities.
Research/Create. Make an abstract self-portrait! Create a collage that represents the different aspects of your identity.
Project: Create 2 self portraits. One will represent you (however you want to portray your "true" self). and one will be the opposite of you (either make a character that is not like you OR contrasting yourself in an environment that you don't normally "belong"). Please try to use a DSLR to shoot the images - cameras are available on a nightly basis.
1. What does your room look like?
2. What do you see on your way to school?
5. What/who do you love?
6. What do you think is beautiful?
7. What is your favorite place/space?
These are open ended questions - it is up to you to decide how you want to interpret them.
Unedited photos due Friday August 28 for class - we will edit them in class.

Which presidential candidate would you kiss under the mistletoe?
According to The North Poll, most Americans would peck Carly Fiorina (23%) under the mistletoe followed by Hillary Clinton (22%), Bernie Sanders (16%), Marco Rubio (10%), Donald Trump (8%), Ben Carson (6%), and Jeb Bush (4%). When filtered by gender, Fiorina was the overwhelming choice among men, garnering 42% of the male vote, while Sanders was the top mistletoe target for 23% of women followed by Rubio (17%), Clinton (14%) and Trump (10%). The least smoochable candidates, according to the poll, are John Kasich who received less than 1% of the vote along with Rand Paul, Chris Christie and Ted Cruz, each of whom would only need to pucker up for 3% of Americans.
Which candidate do you think would make the best Santa Claus?
According to the survey, Americans think Bernie Sanders, with 25% of the vote, would make the best Santa. Sanders was followed closely by Chris Christie (25%) and Donald Trump (23%). Carly Fiorina, Ted Cruz, and Marco Rubio came in last with less than 1% each.
Which presidential candidate do you wish would attend your holiday party?
Most Americans (26%) want Hillary Clinton to attend their holiday party followed by Bernie Sanders (22%) and Donald Trump (21%). However, Trump was the most popular choice among men with 26% of the male vote. The invitations most likely to get lost in the mail would be those addressed to Martin O'Malley and John Kasich, each of whom received just 1% of the vote.
Commissioned by The Salonniere, a leading and award-winning site dedicated exclusively to the art of party hosting, The North Poll was conducted by an independent national research firm between November 20 and December 4, 2015.

Deconstructing 'desistance': GIRES Award for journal commentary about trans youth
Psygentra Founding Director Jemma Tosh has been awarded by the Gender Identity Research and Education Society (GIRES) for their contribution to the article: 'A critical commentary on follow-up studies and 'desistance' theories about transgender and gender non-conforming children' published in the International Journal of Transgender Health (originally named the International Journal of Transgenderism).
GIRES is a UK based organisation that works towards improving the lives of trans, nonbinary, and agender people. It is made up of trans and non trans volunteers and members. It provides training, e-learning, and resources for trans folks and those who support them.
The article was featured in a special issue of the journal, entitled 'Today's Transgender Youth: Health, Well-Being, and Opportunities for Resilience' edited by Ryan Watson and Jaimie Veale, which has since been published as a book by Routledge.
The article came about through discussion amongst a group of researchers concerning the use of a troubling statistic in academic work regarding transgender youth - that over 80% 'desist' as they get older (i.e. they stop being gender nonconforming or de-transition). There are two main issues with this statistic that we wanted to address, (1) the problematic evidence base that led to its circulation, and (2) how the number was being used to discredit or invalidate trans people and their lived experiences of gender. This can lead to numerous other issues, such as being refused medical treatment and being pathologised. In our commentary we wanted to examine the problematic evidence base, showing the weaknesses and limitations of the research that were a cause for concern, and to discuss the implications of continuing to share this particular number in academic and clinical circles on the lives of trans people.
We concluded that:
"As we progress towards a fuller understanding of children's gender in all its complexity, it will be important to move beyond longitudinal studies of identity that seek to predict children's futures, and instead prioritise respect for children's autonomy in the present. For all the resources devoted to studying these children, we have much more to learn by listening to them."
Full list of authors and award winners: Julia Temple Newhook, Jake Pyne, Kelley Winters, Stephen Feder, Cindy Holmes, Jemma Tosh, Mari-Lynne Sinnott, Ally Jamieson, & Sarah Pickett.
See the full abstract below:
Background: It has been widely suggested that over 80% of transgender children will come to identify as cisgender (i.e., desist) as they mature, with the assumption that for this 80%, the trans identity was a temporary "phase." This statistic is used as the scientific rationale for discouraging social transition for pre-pubertal children. This article is a critical commentary on the limitations of this research and a caution against using these studies to develop care recommendations for gender-nonconforming children.
Methods: A critical review methodology is employed to systematically interpret four frequently-cited studies that sought to document identity outcomes for gender-nonconforming children (often referred to as "desistance" research).
Results: Methodological, theoretical, ethical, and interpretive concerns regarding four "desistance" studies are presented. The authors clarify the historical and clinical contexts within which these studies were conducted to deconstruct assumptions in interpretations of the results. The discussion makes distinctions between the specific evidence provided by these studies versus the assumptions that have shaped recommendations for care. The affirmative model is presented as a way to move away from the question of, "How should children's gender identities develop over time?" toward a more useful question: "How should children best be supported as their gender identity develops?"
Conclusion: The tethering of childhood gender diversity to the framework of "desistance" or "persistence" has stifled advancements in our understanding of children's gender in all its complexity. These follow-up studies fall short in helping us understand what children need. As work begins on the 8th version of the Standards of Care by the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), we call for a more inclusive conceptual framework that takes children's voices seriously. Listening to children's experiences will enable a more comprehensive understanding of the needs of gender-nonconforming children and provide guidance to scientific and lay communities.

Au/MoS2 tips as auxiliary rate aligners for the photocatalytic generation of syngas with a tunable composition
Xuemin Hu, Jie Jin, Yuqing Wang, Cheng Lin, Shipeng Wan, Kan Zhang, Luyang Wang, Jong Hyeok Park
Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering
Synthesis gas (syngas), with a wide range of molar ratios of CO and H2 from 0.3 to 4, can serve as an important feedstock in the petroleum industry for the production of various synfuels; however, it remains a major challenge to tune the composition over such a wide range of ratios. Here, we demonstrate the photocatalytic production of syngas with tunable H2/CO molar ratios via rationally designed Au/MoS2 symmetrically tipped CdS nanowires (AMTCs), in which MoS2 and Au serve as cocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR), respectively. The competing reactions are controlled and aligned through the selective decoration of size-controlled (1–50 nm) Au nanoparticles on MoS2 by controlling the charge transfer kinetics during photodeposition. Finally, the widest range of H2/CO ratios in syngas reported to date, ranging from 0.35 to 3.6, is realized, indicating that this is a potentially efficient approach for solar-to-syngas production by using rationally designed nanostructures.

El condado de Olmos es un título nobiliario español, concedido por S. M. el rey Carlos II de España, el 7 de febrero de 1690, a favor del maestre de campo don Juan de Verástegui Viniegra y Corral, nacido en Villar del Río y quien al servicio del rey, pasó a las Indias.

Ostentó previamente el vizcondado de Huacho o Guacho.

Historia

Don Juan de Verástegui ejerció como gobernador de Salta y Jujuy, luego como corregidor de La Paz, pasando finalmente a Trujillo, donde contrajo matrimonio con doña Francisca de Moncada-Galindo y Nava, rica heredera de los mayorazgos de Moncada y de Galindo.

Durante los siglos XVII, XVIII y XIX -hasta la emancipación del Perú, los condes de Olmos y sus familias se dedicaron a servir a la corona y al virreinato, ostentando importantes cargos en la administración colonial, a la vez que explotaban sus latifundios agrícolas, ganaderos y minas del norte. Caben destacar las haciendas Chuquizongo, Otuzco y Pomalca, etc.

La IV condesa, doña Francisca de Moncada-Galindo y Morales, fue la madre del gran mariscal don Luis José de Orbegoso y Moncada-Galindo, presidente del Perú, quien no sucedió en el título a su madre -hubiese sido el V conde, por su participación en la independencia, de la que fue promotor e importante financiador, donando a la causa gran parte de la fortuna familiar y por lo que es considerado uno de los Próceres del Perú.

El gran mariscal contrajo matrimonio con su sobrina, doña María Josefa Martínez de Pinillos y Cacho, hija del noble hidalgo español don Juan José Martínez de Pinillos y Larios -alférez real de Trujillo, señor de Tejada y de Las Calderas, y de doña Josefa de Cacho y Lavalle Cortés, sobrina del I conde de Premio Real -alcalde de Lima y descendiente del conquistador del imperio Inca, Hernán Cortés. Tuvieron trece hijos que engendraron una vasta descendencia, que desempeñó puestos notorios en la vida política, económica y social, de la recién formada república peruana.

El título fue rehabilitado en 1905 por el S.M. el rey Alfonso XIII, a favor del senador don Carlos Alfonso González de Orbegoso y de Pinillos, como V conde de Olmos.

En la ciudad de Trujillo se encuentra la Casona de Orbegoso, palacete colonial que habitaron los condes de Olmos y descendientes, desde el s. XVII hasta 1987, cuando fue vendida a Interbank (grupo Intercorp).

Desde sus orígenes, fueron también los condes precursores de la tauromaquia en el Perú, criando ganado bravo hasta la desaparición del hierro "Chuquizongo" con la reforma agraria de 1969.

Kerala este un stat de pe Coasta Malabar din sud-vestul Indiei. A fost format pe 1 noiembrie 1956 prin fuzionarea regiunilor vorbitoare de limbă malayalam din statele de atunci Travancore-Cochin și Madras. Cu o suprafață de peste 38.863 km2, Kerala este al 21-lea stat indian după teritoriu. Se învecinează cu Karnataka la nord și nord-est, Tamil Nadu la est și sud și Marea Lakshadweep la vest. Cu 33.387.677 de locuitori conform recensământului din 2011, Kerala este al treisprezecelea stat indian după populație. Este împărțit în 14 districte, capitală fiind Thiruvananthapuram. Malayalamul este cea mai răspândită limbă și este, de asemenea, limba oficială a statului.

Dinastia Chera a fost primul regat important aflat în Kerala. Regatul Ay din sud și regatul Ezhimala din nord erau celelalte regate de la începutul erei noastre. Regiunea fusese un important exportator de condimente încă din anul 3000 î.Hr. Proeminența regiunii în comerț a fost remarcată în lucrările lui Plinio, precum și în Periplul din jurul anului 100 d.Hr. În secolul al XV-lea, comerțul cu mirodenii a atras comercianții portughezi în Kerala și a deschis calea colonizării europene a Indiei. La începutul secolului al XX-lea, existau două state princiare majore în statul Kerala - Travancore și Regatul Cochin. Au fost unite pentru a forma statul Thiru-Kochi în 1949. După States Reorganisation Act din 1956, a luat ființă statul modern Kerala prin fuzionarea districtului Malabar din statul Madras, a statului Thiru-Kochi  și a talukului Kasaragod (acum districtul Kasaragod) din Canara de Sud (Tulunad), care făcea parte din statul Madras.

Economia din Kerala este a zecea ca mărime din India cu un produs intern brut de 110 miliarde dolari americani și un PIB pe cap de locuitor de 2900 dolari americani. Kerala are cea mai scăzută rată pozitivă de creștere a populației din India, 3,44%; cel mai înalt indice de dezvoltare umană (IDU), 0,784 în 2018 (0,712 în 2015); cea mai mare rată de alfabetizare, 96,2% în sondajul de alfabetizare din 2018 realizat de Oficiul Național de Statistică; cea mai ridicată speranță de viață, 77 de ani. Kerala este pe penultimul loc în India după procentajul de săraci, conform Raportului anual al Reserve Bank of India publicat în 2013. Statul a ocupat primul loc în țară privind obiectivele de dezvoltare durabilă conform raportului anual al NITI Aayog publicat în 2019. Statul a suferit o emigrație semnificativă, în special în statele arabe din Golful Persic, în timpul Boomului Golfului din anii 1970 și începutul anilor 1980, iar economia sa depinde în mod semnificativ de remitențele de la o comunitate numeroasă de expatriați malayali. Hinduismul este practicat de mai mult de jumătate din populație, urmat de islam și creștinism. Cultura Keralei este o sinteză a culturilor ariene, dravidiene, arabe și europene, dezvoltată de-a lungul mileniilor.

Producția de piper și cauciuc natural contribuie semnificativ la producția totală națională. În sectorul agricol, nucile de cocos, ceaiul, cafeaua, caju și condimentele joacă un rol  important. Coasta statului se întinde pe 595 km și în jur de 1.1 milioane de persoane din stat depind de industria pescuitului, care asigură 3% din veniturile statului. Statul are cea mai mare expunere la mass-media din India, cu ziare publicate în nouă limbi, mai ales engleză și malayalam. Kerala este una dintre cele mai importante destinații turistice din India, având ca atracții majore lagune, resorturi montane, plaje, turism ayurvedic și păduri tropicale.

Road to Supercross: Jordon Smith
December 16, 2014 4:50pm | by: Press Release
AURORA, Ill. -The 2015 season of AMSOIL Arenacross, featuring Ricky Carmichael's Road to Supercross is one of the most anticipated seasons ever. The next generation of superstars are hard at work preparing for the start of their professional careers and one of the most anticipated debuts this season will be that of North Carolina native Jordon Smith.
In 2015 the GEICO Honda rider will make an attempt to race both AMSOIL Arenacross and Monster Energy AMA Supercross, an FIM World Championship, in the same season. Smith's highly anticipated debut kicks off at the opening round of AMSOIL Arenacross inside Cincinnati's US Bank Arena on January 10. Smith's speed and talent will be put to the test as he races against a group of the fastest title contenders ever assembled on an arenacross track. Following AMSOIL Arenacross, Smith will transition into Monster Energy Supercross where he is a contender in the Eastern Regional 250SX Class.
"The biggest difference coming into AMSOIL Arenacross is the intensity. There are short tracks and short races, and those guys don't leave anything out there [on the track]. You can't leave the door open for them and you have to be smart with the racing. Arenacross always has a lot of fast guys and they definitely don't mess around, so it should be interesting."
With two AMA Amateur National Championships on his resume and the factory backed GEICO Honda team in his corner, Smith is one of 2015's most promising young supercross stars.

What is Attracting Scorpions to your Property?
Which interior paint is best for the health of your family?
Home improvement loans with no equity are on the rise and if you have been contemplating utilizing the services of a lender, you seriously need to read on.
Did you know that personal loans could teach you more about money management and simplify your cash flow? Furthermore, a personal loan can be used to improve credit and avoid alternative mortgage loans that require a down payment.
In fact, the economy has improved immensely since the economic crisis that swamped America a decade ago. Loan options are expanding, repayment plans are becoming more accommodating to people with no equity, and the application process usually requires nothing more than an Internet connection and some personal details.
Even some of the wealthiest people in the world have turned to financial lending. From multi-millionaire actor Nicolas Cage who borrowed millions to one of the world's most renowned photographers Annie Leibowitz, who borrowed $25 million in 2005, everybody needs a helping hand once in awhile.
Don't go thinking that you won't be eligible to receive a home improvement loan if you aren't wealthy, however. Numerous factors will be taken into account when you apply but once accepted, the funds can be transferred instantly into your account and used to renovate your existing home.
What are home improvement loans with no Equity?
Money market instruments, better known as equity, is a form of financing that carries zero fixed interest. It is usually traded for business purposes however, this kind of trading involves high risk. Most people will be sitting on some kind of equity, such as stocks and trades, which arw purchased and sold in the form of shares. When a borrower utilizes their equity as collateral, this will be considered home equity financing.
Rather than using the funds as collateral, home improvement loans with no equity are a worthwhile option. The funds borrowed for home improvement loans with no equity will usually be unsecured and will not dip into your equity. Generally, 125% of the home's equity can be lended by a loan company. What's more, both new and seasoned property owners will be considered to apply for personal loan.
After the Great Recession, a lot of people were in desperate need of cash, making home equity an appealing choice, such as to consolidate high-interest rates and as an emergency source for cash. Why not use equity funding for home improvements, you ask? Well, a home equity line of credit, when used unnecessarily, might leave you without a safety net. Predicting the future is difficult and so, it's not worth risking a financial rut.
A home renovation, when done right, can bag you a brilliant return on investment (ROI). If you decide to put your property on the market in the future, it will sell for much more if it was updated with attic insulation, replaced windows and doors, a renovated roof, kitchen remodeling and everything else associated with a home improvement project. The building's aesthetic appeal and enhanced structure combine to attract buyers that are seeking out style and longevity.
Installing energy-efficient appliances, fitting solar panels to the roof and using home improvement loans to design sustainable architecture will reduce your energy bill, and save the universe! Another Improvement could help your finances is by saving you the expense of costly repairs/replacements later down the line. For example, a deteriorating roof caused by leakages will slowly weaken the property's structure, increasing the risk of hazards and expensive replacements.
Many celebrities have been known to increase the curb appeal of their homes or in many cases, mansions. Who knows – maybe they used home improvement loans to enhance their dwelling, too! Pharrell Williams has definitely infused his personality into his condo in Miami, while heartthrob Leonardo DiCaprio is shacking up in a 6-bedroom luxury house on Palm Springs estate.
A few stars in particular are obsessed with renovating, so why not take interior design inspiration from Ellen Degeneres' French-themed home or Justin Timberlake's modern crib before applying for home improvement loans with no equity? Creating a list of homes that inspire, such as homes with kitchen islands and architectural wonders with spiral staircases, will aid you in setting a budget and calculating the required loan amount.
Is a Rent To Own Option a Good Idea?

LEADING OFF: García youngest Yankees postseason starter
A look at what's happening around the majors Tuesday:
Prized rookie Deivi Garcia is set to become the youngest Yankees pitcher to make a postseason start in Game 2 of the best-of-five AL Division Series against rival Tampa Bay. New York won the opener 9-3 on Monday.
The 21-year-old Garcia made his major league debut Aug. 30 and went 3-2 with a 4.98 ERA in six regular-season starts. He'll surpass Hall of Famer Whitey Ford, who was nearly 22 when he started Game 4 of the 1950 World Series against the Phillies, as the youngest postseason starter for New York.
Garcia also will become the youngest pitcher to start in the postseason for any team since Los Angeles Dodgers lefty Julio Urias was 20 in Game 4 of the 2016 NL Championship Series against the Chicago Cubs.
Tyler Glasnow, 27, goes for the AL East champion Rays. The 6-foot-8 Glasnow (5-1, 4.08 ERA) had 91 strikeouts in 57 1/3 innings this season and has won six straight decisions and four consecutive starts, including six innings of two-run ball to win the first-round clincher against Toronto.
LONG AND SHORT
Carlos Correa and the Houston Astros look to grab a 2-0 lead in their best-of-five Division Series against AL West champion Oakland. Correa homered twice and drove in four runs to power the Astros to a 10-5 victory at Dodger Stadium in the opener Monday. The star shortstop is 6 for 11 (.545) with three home runs in three playoff games this year.
Houston's young bullpen also is a huge reason the defending American League champions are 3-0 in the postseason. The unit hasn't allowed a run in 14 2/3 innings, holding opposing hitters to 3 for 43 (.070) at the plate.
WHO'S UP?
The Padres hadn't said whether starters Dinelson Lamet and Mike Clevinger will be healthy enough to crack their NL Division Series roster and pitch against the Dodgers. Both were held off the first-round roster, Lamet with biceps tightness and Clevinger with an elbow impingement. If either is activated, they could pitch Game 1 in Arlington, Texas – San Diego hadn't announced a starter yet.
"Obviously, those are two of their better starters," Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. "We're preparing for both those guys until we don't have to."
Los Angeles will start right-hander Walker Buehler in the opener, with left-hander Clayton Kershaw set for Game 2. Buehler has been dealing with a troublesome blister.
The Braves are back in the NL Division Series for a third straight year but haven't advanced to the NL Championship Series since 2001. They're hoping they can hold off the upstart Marlins, who have never lost a postseason series. Max Fried (7-0) starts the opener for Atlanta in Houston against Sandy Alcantara (3-2).
Atlanta ended a streak of 10 consecutive losses in postseason rounds by shutting out the Reds in a two-game sweep for their first playoff series win since 2001.
"We want to move on past the NLDS," star slugger Freddie Freeman said. "We won a series but it's still just the Division Series. So, we've got some work to do. And we have chips on our shoulders from the last couple of years."
Atlanta is looking for a big series from Freeman after he was hampered by a nagging elbow injury in the 2019 playoffs.
"He was hurt, there's no doubt about it," manager Brian Snitker said. "That guy laid it out there for us. I know it wasn't fun for him. It was bothering him."

Christmas is ten months away. Why think about it in February? Right? WRONG! If you want to have a debt free Christmas then the best way to do so is think about it every year. This is the second in my series of having a debt free Christmas.
This month, let's make some lists. Make a list of all the people you want to send Christmas cards to. This next month, plan on getting the cards and stamps. It's sometimes cheaper to buy your own Christmas cards and add a photo inside. Check out the fantastic prices of these cards at Family Christian. They even have some as low as 16 for $1. So if you haven't purchased Christmas cards yet, figure out how many you need and purchase them now! You certainly won't find deals like this in November or December.
Also, plan for stamps. Did you know you can order holiday stamps at any time of the year through the usps.com site? So order your Christmas cards and order your stamps. That way you will have them come Christmas.
If you don't send cards, then just set the money you would have spent on cards back for expenses as they come up IN ADDITION to what you are already saving for gifts. If you aren't sure how much that would be, just set back $50. Put it in a "Christmas" envelope because you'll be spending it before a bank Christmas club account would come due.


Isaac Newton once said, "Tact is the art of making a point without making an enemy." Being tactful is just that — having the ability to clearly communicate your message while being sensitive to those around you and not unintentionally offending anyone. Being tactful does not mean hiding what you really feel; it just means presenting your ideas in a way that would make them the most appealing and inoffensive. If you want to know how to be tactful, then you should see Step 1 to get started.
Think before you speak. Allow yourself a pause to consider how your words could be perceived, and to prevent yourself from making hasty comments. You may have an immediate gut reaction to something your boss or friend is saying, but take a moment to gather your thoughts before you come right out and say what you want to say. Ask yourself if it's the best time to present your ideas, if you should spend some time finding a better way to say what you want to say, and if people will be receptive to your comments right then.
Though speaking with your gut can lead to a lot of interesting ideas, it can also help to take a few minutes to formulate your thoughts first. If you instantly disagree with something your boss says, for example, you're better off thinking of concrete examples for why you disagree instead of just blurting out that you think it's a bad idea.
Notice the people around you. You may want to make a comment about how excited you are for your wedding, when one of the people there is going through a bitter divorce. Though you don't have to hide your enthusiasm forever, you may be better off finding a better time to make your comment.
Gently correct gossip. Example: "I'm sorry you heard that about Jane Doe. When I spoke to her, she said that it was just a rumor about her getting fired."
Say something non-committal. Example: "I've never met John Doe, so I wouldn't have a clue about his drinking habits."
Say something positive. "Mary Sue may be late a lot, but she does really good work." Or, "Bill Jones has always been civil to me personally."
Change the subject. "You know, your comment about the boss reminds me of something. There's an office party coming up, right? Are you bringing anyone?"
Remove yourself from the situation. If people keep being negative and the situation isn't letting up, then you can excuse yourself and say you need to get back to class or work. You should make it seem unrelated to the conversation at hand.
Ask the person nicely to stop. Say "I'm really not interested in gossiping about our neighbor," or "I'd prefer not talk about that in the office."
If you want to give negative feedback to a friend, you can say something like, "I think it's so sweet of you to always want to set me up with the single guys you know. But when you try to do it every time we go out, it kind of makes me feel pathetic."
If you want to give negative feedback to a co-worker, you can say something like, "I really appreciate how hard you've been working on the new project. However, I think the project can be even better if you let Mary help you out a bit more."
Choose your words carefully. When it comes to being tactful, one of the most important things to keep in mind is that you should be aware of the words you use to express your ideas. You can still say what you want to say without offending people or coming off mean or like a know-it-all. When you're getting ready to state an opinion, ask yourself if the words you're using are biased, hurtful, patronizing, or just all wrong for the occasion. Then, find the words that will help further your ideas without offending anyone.
For example, if you want to talk to a coworker about how she needs to get her work done faster, don't tell her she's "slow"; instead, ask her if she can think of ways to be "more efficient."
For example, if you're telling your boss you're leaving your job, you don't have to say something like, "I am just way too smart for these people"; instead, you can say something like, "This company isn't the best fit for me."
Choose your timing carefully. When it comes to being tactful, having great timing is half the battle. You may have something perfectly nice to say, which can ruin a social situation if you say it at the wrong time, and can lead to hurt feelings without you meaning to do any harm. Before you make a comment, ask yourself if this is the best time to make the comment, and if everyone there will be receptive to it. Ask yourself if it would be better to wait to get a more positive response, even if you're dying to say what you want to say.
For example, if your friend Linda is excited to tell all of her friends about her recent engagement, then you may have to hold off the news that you're pregnant for another week, so Linda can enjoy the spotlight for a bit longer. You don't want her to feel like you trumped her big day.
For example, if your boss is wrapping up a long presentation at the end of the work day, this may not be the best time to ask your question about an unrelated report. Asking the question now will only lead to confusion and your boss will be focused on the presentation and won't have the energy to address your concerns; if you wait until the next day, your boss will be happier to discuss the issue with you.
Decline invitations politely. If someone asks you to do something, you should find a way to politely decline it, even if your gut is screaming, "Heck no!" Whether you're being asked to attend the baby shower of a person you barely know or to stay late at work on a Friday night, instead of immediately saying no and looking angry or upset about it, you should take the time to say how much you would like to do it and then give a brief explanation or apology about not being able to do it. This will still get the same message across, but you won't offend anyone in the process.
For example, if your boss asks you to take on another project and you just don't have any more time on your hands, you can say something like, "Thank you so much for thinking of me for this opportunity. Unfortunately, I'm still wrapping up those two other projects you asked me about and I won't be able to take on the extra work. But I would love to help out on something similar in the future."
For example, if your friend invites you to go hiking but hiking isn't really your thing, you can say something like, "Your weekend trip to the Redwood forest sounds amazing, but I'm going to take it easy this weekend — I've had a crazy week at work and need to decompress. How about we catch up over drinks next Friday?"
Don't reveal too much personal information to people you don't know very well. Another thing that people who lack tact tend to do is to go about announcing their business to every person on the street. If you want to have tact, then you can't go around telling anyone within earshot about your latest breakup, your new rash, or all of your personal problems. Telling people you don't know well all your business will only make them uncomfortable and won't lead to any new friendships; have tact and be aware of when people would like to hear more and when enough is enough.
This also goes for revealing personal information about other people. If you're with a close friend and a few less-than-close friends, don't pick up on a private conversation you had with that friend in front of the other people; your friend might have been happy to talk about his complicated relationship with his mother with you, but he may not want the world to know about it.
Make sure your body language reflects your words. It's great if your words are sending a friendly and polite message, but if your body is telling people something different, then they'll quickly get a different picture. If you're telling someone something important in a delicate way, then you should make eye contact, face the person, and not hunch over or look at the floor. Give the person your attention and show that you actually care. It'll be hard for them to take you seriously if you're telling the person that he or she is doing great at work while you're looking in the other direction.
Actions really can speak louder than words, so make sure that your body isn't sending a different message from your mouth.
Consider the other person's viewpoint and acknowledge it. Another part of having tact is being able to understand where another person is coming from. Though voicing your own ideas is important, it's also important to understand that another person may not see things the way you see them. If you let the person know that you understand where he or she is coming from, they'll be much more likely to listen to you and to take your ideas seriously.
For example, saying something like, "Mary, I understand that you've had a lot on your plate recently..." can make it easier for you to ask Mary to help out with another project. If you just say, "Hey, can you stay late to finish up a new report for me?" then Mary is likely to think you're insensitive.
Consider cultural differences and try to act in a sensitive way without being asked. There are many cultural differences that should be acknowledged in our world, which are based on where people are from, how they were raised, what their race and backgrounds may be, or even what generation they are coming from. What may be perfectly acceptable in one culture can be considered rude in another, so ask yourself if you're being sensitive to the different cultures around you before you make a comment.
Be discreet. You may find that you need to correct something a co-worker said during a presentation, or that one of your friends has a giant chunk of spinach in his teeth. Instead of pointing this out in front of everyone, you should try to pull the person aside to let them know about the situation. Showing discretion is a big part of having tact, because it will help you know what should be said under what circumstances. It's an important skill you should have in the professional and the social world.
For example, if you and your partner got a raise but no one else in the company did, it's best not to brag about it in front of everyone. You can have a private celebration later.
Be gracious even when you're irritated. Keep your cool and speak kindly and sincerely. Assume the best. Though you may be dying to tell your friend what you really think of her behavior, or you really want to yell at your co-worker for ruining a project, you should hold your tongue and be as kind as possible until you find a time to state your true feelings. There's no point in saying something you'll regret just because you're irked in the moment.
For example, if someone gives you an ugly sweater, say: "Thanks so much for the present. I'm touched you thought of me."
Have empathy for others. Look around you before you make a comment and see how the other people there will receive it. It's important to know where people are coming from before you blurt out your political, religious, or other personal opinions. Though you can't completely know where every person is coming from when you speak, it's important to have a sense of the mindset and experiences of the people around you so you can avoid offending people.
For example, if you just got a raise and Bob got fired, this may not be the time to brag about it.
If one of the people around you is a devout Christian, then it's not the time to talk about how you think religion is pointless.
If someone around you is exhausted after a long day, don't expect the person to help you resolve a huge emotional conflict. Have patience.
Be an active listener. Being an active listener is a crucial component of being tactful. There's a difference between what someone is saying to you and what that person is really thinking, so you should really look and hear the person out to get the real message. If your friend is telling you that she's over her break up and totally ready to go to a party with you, but her eyes and gestures are telling you otherwise, then find a way to kindly tell her that it's okay if she's not ready to go out.
Paying attention to how people are really feeling as they're speaking can help you respond to them in the most tactful way possible. For example, if your co-worker is really struggling with a project but is afraid to ask for help, listen for cues, such as nervousness, stuttering, or repetitive speech to see if he or she is trying to reach out to you.
Actively listening can also help you see if a person has shut down and doesn't want to hear any more about a subject. If you're giving feedback to a coworker who is already upset by it, you can tell by his or her words that he may not be ready to hear more; you should gracefully end the conversation and pick it up later.
Be respectful. Being respectful goes hand in hand with being tactful. If you want to have true tact, then you have to treat other people with respect. This means letting them finish talking instead of interrupting them, giving them your full attention when they are trying to tell you something, and asking people how they are doing before jumping in to deliver some bad news. Treat each and every individual with care and kindness and understand that it's important to make people feel that they are treated fairly, even if they may not be your favorite people on the planet.
Being respectful is a matter of common decency. Don't curse in front of your elders; don't use lewd language in front of people you don't know well. This will come off as very tasteless, and therefore lacking tact.
Is tone of voice important?
Yes. The tone of voice, as well as the words you choose to relay an unpleasant message, is important.
I am a very blunt, lay-it-on-the-table person. I usually tell people this followed by "just call me Frank". I also have ADD and blurt things. How do I correct this?
Look and smile at your speaker with hands together -- it helps keep your mouth closed. Only use nodding, which still allows you some type of communication. You will be amazed at what this will get you through. Also, only say words like, "I understand" or "I hear you". Don't always go into communication with a solution and answer, just go into it being only a listener.
How can I be tactful when notifying someone they have a disease?
There are no easy ways to be tactful with news of a terminal illness or disease. Communicating directly with that person and explaining the facts first allows you to move right into the results. For example, if I share with a soccer player, "With the force of the impact you took in that side tackle, it really did a lot of damage. There was scare tissue from a prior injury. With the years of wear and tear, it was bound to tear sooner than later. As a result, we had to place a rod in that bone-to-bone area. Now with months of therapy you will be able to walk and run, but unfortunately will not be able to play this sport anymore due to not having mobility."
What to do when teachers are bored when I ask them a question again and again because I have not understood the answer?
Realize that your teacher has an entire class to teach, not just you. Asking the same question repeatedly during class is not being respectful of your classmates. Instead, talk to your teacher after class or get yourself a tutor so you can have individualized attention.
How can you be tactful when someone who works for you isn't doing a good job. Lazy. Not cleaning up.
How can I be tactful with a high strung co-worker?
Does social tact transcend honesty?
How do I become more open and honest with a guy knowing that I am more of hidden, secretive, and guarded person.

: I am planning a trip up Highway 395 in August (yes, I'm braving the heat). I have considered a side trip to Ballarat, Darwin and Keeler. Are these towns worth a visit? What other towns in the area do you recommend?
: Ballart is DEFINITELY worth the visit, and you might want to give yourself extra time there to hike up to Claire Camp as well. Lots to see! BUT HOT!!!!
: Darwin and Keeler are worth slowing the car down but not much else.
: How far are you going up 395? I can think of a couple of other ideas. Let me know!
: : I am planning a trip up Highway 395 in August (yes, I'm braving the heat). I have considered a side trip to Ballarat, Darwin and Keeler. Are these towns worth a visit? What other towns in the area do you recommend?
: Darwin and Keeler are fairly high in elevation and thus cooler. Darwin is a bit over 5000 feet and summer tempuratures are in the high 90s and occasionally over 100. Keeler is at 3650 feet and runs 100º to 105º and occasionally higher. Ballarat (elevation 1100 feet) will often be 105º to 115º, occasionally 120º+.
: Other places you might want to see are Cerro Gordo above Keeler (9000 feet and much cooler -- drive up in the morning when cooler or there's a good chance your car will overheat on the short but steep climb up from Keeler), Bend City (E of Independence -- see page on this website), San Carlos (N of Bend City along abandoned RR grade and more ruins than Bend City), Manzanar Japanese internment camp ruins (be sure to get self guided tour book at Eastern California Museum in nearby Independence), Laws Railroad Museum near Bishop, the small ghost camps near Mammoth Lakes (high altitude w/forests and lakes -- check w/Cat & Ripley), Bennettville (see page on this website), Bodie.
: Be sure to stop by museums along the way. Darwin Museum now located at Lone Pine, Eastern California Museum at Independence, Laws Railroad Museum, The Old Schoolhouse Museum in Lee Vining, Mono Lake Visitors Center nearby in Lee Vining.
: We're going all the way to Tahoe, so we definitely plan a stop at Bodie, if that's the "other idea" you're talking about. I've been there before and it's great. Any other ideas?
: : How far are you going up 395? I can think of a couple of other ideas. Let me know!
: Ballarat: Definitely worth a visit. Try to get there in the early morning otherwise it's going to be extremely hot! Stop in at the General Store/Museum. Ballarat is privately owned, and probably gets most (if not all) of its support from purchases at the store and donations. Louie is a great host, and an absolute delight to chat with! Plan to spend considerable time there. You'll learn a lot... and enjoy every minute of it! One thing: If you buy sodas at the Ballarat General Store, and plan to drink them out of the cans, ask Louie to skip the ice and cups. Drinkable water is scarce and I'd rather see it go to someone who really needs it! Also, Louie had a couple of dogs tied on the front porch of the General Store. They'll bark at your arrival, so you and your companions best be ready for them. Tell Louie that the Ham Radio operator from Virginia who visited back June with his wife and young daughter asked you to say hello and give him our best wishes.
: Bodie: Before I visited Bodie, the only Ghost Towns I'd ever visited were Rhyolite & Carrara in Nevada. Compared to those two, Bodie is simply awesome! I cannot describe with mere words what an experience visiting Bodie is. You've got to go there. Mornings or afternoons will probably be best this time of year.
: Be absolutely certain of the condition of your car. Especially so climbing in/out of Death Valley. We had a Chevy Lumina which had extreme difficulty with the trek out of Stovepipe Wells. That car just couldn't breathe! Best speed was 35 mph at times. That car actually scared us that we would be stuck in the desert. Be safe. Check your car first!
: In case of ermergency, carry sufficient water and food. For my wife, daughter (age 4), and I, we carried seven gallons of drinking water and about a two-day supply of food.
: Don't depend on your cellphone in case of emergency. Our portable phone was useless. Next time, I'm carrying an amateur radio 2-meter band HT, amplifier, and antenna. I understand Ham Radio coverage is excellent out there, especially in and around the Ridgecrest area. If you don't have a Technician class amateur radio license, consider getting one and the equipment if you like doing this kind of travelling. The range is better than CB or cellular, and you are likely to more likely to reach someone. Although I've been a "Ham" for 22 years, this was the first domestic trip since getting my license that I left my gear at home. Not ever again!
: If you go to Bodie, I suggest you stay in Bridgeport. It's a nice town to really decompress in. We stayed at the Best Western Ruby Inn. However, call well ahead to make reservations. There's a very limited supply of motel rooms in Bridgeport. As for dining in Bridgeport, I give my highest recomendation for The Sportsmen Inn. Both supper and breakfast were excellent values, and they like children! If you run into Jess in there (you'll see him pictured with his family on a large portrait which hangs by the kitchen), tell him taht the guy from Virginia with the little girl who had Shriley Temple curls says hi! Oh yes, portions at The Sportsmen Inn are huge! Definitely bring an appetite!!!
: On our trip, we went near Randsburg (didn't visit as we spent too much time sightseeing already) and got to see the right-of-way of a "Ghost Railroad"! It was interesting visiting Trona, as well.
: One thing about your trip: Expect to pay serious near-European gas prices. Being used to paying $1.12 in Northern Virginia (and about the same in Sacramento), be prepared to pay in the $2.00/gallon range in the area you're planning to tarvel. Also, be prepared for gas stations requiring either pay in advance or leaving your credit/ATM card with them before you fill the tank.
: In a nutshell, Doug: Go to Ballarat and Bodie. Bring plenty of film. The trip will be well worth it! Just remember to bring plenty of film!

Have you had your s'more yet? Written By Sarah V. Hayes
With the heat of the summer, no doubt I'm ready for the cool weather to begin and the bonfire to burn. Roasting my favorite campfire treat and telling my kids spooky stories, surely will make these nights unforgettable . Speaking of stories and activities to look forward to this month, it happened to be National S'Mores Day yesterday, August 10th. So I hope you gathered the sticks, rubbish, leaves and other garbage you have collected this summer and had a neighborhood social-distancing party. I hope you roasted those marshmallows so you could, of course, have those sticky, gooey, yummy, edible, pleasurable treats known as S'Mores.
We can thank the Girl Scouts for this yummy delight. This first, written publication of the recipe was found in a 1927 magazine of Tramping and Trailing with the Girl Scouts. While the Girl Scouts were not the first ones to make this treat, they were the first ones to record it. The Girl Scouts also mention making s'mores in other publications as early as 1925.
Apparently, the creator happens to be a gentleman named Alec Barnum. According to Quora.com, the man changed his name several times. Born Nathanial Ayers, he wanted to escape his identity because of his abusive father. At age 11, he became John C. Wilkons. Living through life as a pick-pocketer, then having an idea that changed the world today (a bonfire treat adored by millions), soon escalated him into our encyclopedias. Living life making millions (of dollars) soon came to a halt as the Great Depression approached.
Creditors were soon after him and more identity changes resulted. The names Rose Weber, Loretta Scott Crew and Clarice Nelms were used as pseudonyms. Decades had passed and it wasn't until he was on his death bed in Mexico at age 87, he revealed his true name as Jesus Chaves.
So, back to the story:
Some recipes used the name "Some Mores." The more common name used today is "S'Mores." The date is unknown when the name was changed.
Want some recipe alternatives for the original treat? Check these out if you're ready to spice-up your campfire days. Don't forget to order here for S'Mores Fudge. Email us with this special flavor and we'll have you celebrating in no time! Don't forget those who you have not seen all summer, from near and far. Send them fudge with a personalized card inside saying Miss You, Thinking of You or Wishing You Were Here. Were you caught up with the hustle-and-bustle of summer that you forget someone's birthday? Phenomenal Fudge melts everyone's heart so don't forget to share!

Lhasa's unusual childhood was marked by long periods of nomadic wandering through Mexico and the U.S., with her parents and sisters in the school bus which was their home. During this period the children improvised, both theatrically and musically, performing for their parents on a nightly basis. Lhasa grew up in a world imbued with artistic discovery, far from conventional culture.
I'm not a fan of overwrought emotionality and her music was emotional and soul-catching without the self-pitying cloyingness that can sometimes attach itself to sentiment. If you wish to listen to the music straight please go here to the MySpace page and listen to De Cara a la Pared or El Desierto in particular. She sings in Spanish, English and French – Rising and Fool's Gold are good examples of her English work.
Suffice it to say, I was very sad to hear of her passing. Her music meant and still means a great deal to me. The combination of her music and what I've read of her life presents in my mind's eye an image akin to a Cornell box full of snippets of images from children's books, gypsy beads, spider webs and twigs and bright colored cloth … hmm rather than describing it perhaps I should build one. I guess that's what it means to be an artist – the impact of your work carries on after your physical manifestation passes.
By the way, Lhasa passed from breast cancer. Perhaps scheduling an exam would be also be a good way to remember her.


Newly promoted Chemidor Tehran (Superleague) landed experienced 36-year old former Iranian international point guard Mahdi Kamrani (181-78kg-82). He played most recently at Jilin Northeast Tigers in Chinese CBA league. In 20 games he averaged 11.9ppg, 4.7rpg, 4.1apg and 2.4spg in 2016-17 season.
The previous (15-16) season Kamrani played at Fly Dragons (also in CBA) where in 34 games he had very impressive stats: 19.3ppg, 4.6rpg, 6.5apg and 2.8spg.
He also represented Iran at the Asian Championships in Changsha-Hunan (China) three years ago. Kamrani's team won Bronze and his stats at that event were 9 games: 8.2ppg, 2.6rpg, 2.6apg, Steals-5 (2.0spg), FGP: 39.6%, 3PT: 28.1%, FT: 60.0%.
Kamrani has played previously professionally also in Iran (Paykan, Saba, Petrochimi, Mahram and Foolad Mahan) and China (Monkey Kings).
It may be one of last seasons in his extensive career, which he may end at Chemidor.
Let's have closer look into Kamrani's outlook: An experienced PG, with court vision, passing skills and good defensive attitude. Can score if left open, has great leadership, he could also be effective at uppper level. are ready to play in Europe.

Skarabén (från latinets scarabaeus) var populär som amulett och sigill i forntidens Egypten. Skarabén formgavs efter en skalbagge,  bladhorningen pillerbaggen eller dyngbaggen. Denna skalbagge förknippades i egyptisk mytologi med den tidiga morgonsolens gud Khepri, då skalbaggens rullande med dyngkulor ansågs likna hur solen rullades över himlavalvet.

Khepris (en av solguden Ras uppenbarelseformer) namn skrevs med skarabéns hieroglyf

Då skarabéns hieroglyf refererar till existens, manifestation, utveckling, tillväxt och effektivitet, blev skalbaggens form en favorit som amulett under alla perioder av egyptisk historia. De första man har hittat kommer från cirka 2575–2130 f. Kr, men de verkar inte ha blivit vanliga förrän cirka 1938–1630 f. Kr.

I modern tid
Skarabéer är fortfarande populära som smycken och amuletter.

Inom New Age tillskrivs skarabén positiva effekter.

Hot on the heels of Niel's 90th birthday party blog post yesterday, comes Charles's slightly more youthful but still important 50th birthday party!
I was delighted to be asked to cover Charles's 50th party just prior to the New Year, down at the amazing Grand Hotel in Brighton. It was great to see Charles and Joanna, having covered their wedding at Hotel du Vin in Tunbridge Wells a few years prior (Here's part 1 of their lovely snowy wedding if you fancy a nosey).
I started the evening with details of the Grand, the room and all the little details, before Charles and Joanna made their way down to the room. Champagne was served during the guest arrivals as the guests wished Charles a happy birthday, before it was time for everyone to be seated for dinner. The Christmas crackers, jokes and hats were a lovely touch!
After dinner, Charles's father kicked off the speeches with some very heart-felt words about him. Being nosey, it was great to hear the story of how he had built up a very, very successful software company. It was also great to hear that he'd found the missing part of his puzzle – the lovely Joanna – and they were so happy together! Charles then replied with a great speech of his own, before it was time for the live music to start. The dancing was soon in full-swing, so after capturing enough shots, it was time for me to head home!
Here are some of my favourite shots from the evening!
If you're looking for a photographer to cover a milestone birthday, then please get in touch to discuss your requirements!
