BEULAH, Mich.—Duke Energy announced Wednesday it is reshaping the footprint of its proposed wind farm in Benzie and Manistee Counties, saying it will direct its development efforts for the coming year to just two of the four townships where it first proposed the 200 megawatt project.
The company confirmed for the Great Lakes Bulletin News Service that, for 2012, it would pursue wind turbine development for its Gail Windpower Project primarily in Benzie's Joyfield and Manistee's Pleasanton Townships.
Duke had originally planned to also develop wind turbines in nearby Benzie's Blaine and Manistee's Arcadia Townships, but the company said a larger concentration of signed landholder leases in the other two townships—and the result of a survey of 900 residents in all four townships gauging support for wind power development within them—led the company to refocus its efforts.
Duke indicated that it is finding strong interest in windpower development in Manistee County's Pleasanton and Benzie County's Joyfield Townships.
The survey, according to Duke, found majority support for wind development in Joyfield, and two-thirds majority support in Pleasanton.
The company commissioned Central Michigan University to do the mail-in and telephone surveys.
It is not clear if the announcement means that Duke's plans to erect wind turbines in Arcadia and Blaine Townships, where several citizen groups have stoutly resisted the proposal, are dead.
"This simply means that we're going to focus our 2012 development efforts where interest and support for clean energy and economic growth is strongest—in Joyfield and Pleasanton," Mr. Efthimiou said.
The company had planned to invest as much as $360 million in the four townships. Duke said that would annually generate about $3.6 million in additional property tax revenue for the townships and counties, and about $1.6 million annually in leaseholder revenue if all 112 originally proposed turbines were constructed.
The change in plans could allow more of that money to flow to Joyfield and Pleasanton Townships.
However the company also indicated in its press release that current leaseholders in the two townships where the company is now freezing its development efforts would still receive a yearly fee for previously signing a lease if the project is constructed and put into operation.
The decision by Duke sparked speculation that zoning ordinances, or lack thereof, in the townships may also have played a role in the company's decision.
Each of the four townships is in a different stage of dealing with the zoning ordinances needed to regulate the project.
In Benzie County, Joyfield Township has no zoning regulations at all, while Blaine Township already has a wind ordinance in place—essentially the same ordinance Benzie County adopted more than a year ago, before budget cuts eliminated its planning and zoning department. Earlier this year Blaine Township's trustees imposed a moratorium on all wind project applications—including Duke's project—in order to determine whether that ordinance is adequate.
A Blaine Township official indicated that the moratorium would last at least through December.
In Manistee County, Arcadia Township, the first township to impose a moratorium on the project, recently extended it another six months, while Pleasanton Township's moratorium ends in October.
The change in Duke's plans also comes as researchers with Macalester College prepare to release the results of more than 1,500 mail and online surveys that sought answers to what local residents want, and will accept, when it comes to commercial wind power. The mail and online surveys specifically targeted residents in the four townships that straddled Duke's original Gail Windpower footprint.
Macalester, under the auspices of a community-led process known as the Understanding Wind Initiative, is also seeking answersto some 400-plus questions submitted to the UWI regarding wind power.
Duke said the Gail Wind project would only be built if it can find a purchaser for the approximate 200 megawatts of power that the project would produce. It is continuing to market the project to utilities in the region to see if it can find a buyer.

Corrupt SDNY who is After Steve Bannon, Brian Kolfage and Conservatives for Building a Southern Wall – Is Admonished by Judge for Corrupt Actions in Another Case
By Joe Hoft
Published September 17, 2020 at 6:30pm
Former Trump Team Strategist Steve Bannon, Brian Kolfage, a war veteran who lost three limbs in Iraq, and two others were indicted by corrupt Southern District of New York (SDNY) attorneys.
Today the same corrupt SDNY was admonished by a judge for failing to provide evidence in another case and the judge ordered the entire Manhattan Office read her ruling.
The Southern District of New York (SDNY) is reportedly after President Trump. No crimes are specified but it doesn't matter. For example, Mueller gang leader Andrew Weissmann recently encouraged the SDNY to bring in Roger Stone after his sentence was commuted by President Trump and continue to harass him on more bogus charges.
Of course, there are no crimes to prosecute, it's all about abusing those you don't like just like in a banana republic.
As we reported previously, there are many indications the recent indictment of Steve Bannon, Brian Kolfage and others by the SDNY smells of Weissmann.
For example, Roger Stone was arrested by more than 20 FBI agents with guns cocked and ready at 5 in the morning in Florida for a non-violent crime:
Three weeks ago war hero and triple amputee Brian Kolfage was arrested for bogus charges related to his, Bannon's and two other gentlemen's efforts in building a wall on the Southern Border. The 15 New York USPIS agents who arrested him dragged him into their arrest vehicle with his one good arm!
Yesterday a judge slammed the SDNY and ordered the whole high-powered Manhattan office to read her 34-page opinion on the botched case.
Bloomberg reported:
A judge sharply criticized federal prosecutors for failing to turn over important evidence to a businessman accused of violating U.S. sanctions on Iran — and then ordered the whole high-powered Manhattan office to read her 34-page opinion on the botched case.
U.S. District Judge Alison Nathan found "serious and pervasive issues related to disclosure failures and misleading statements to the court," detailing problems with the government's handling of the case against Ali Sadr Hashemi Nejad.
"The cost of such government misconduct is high," Nathan wrote. "With each misstep, the public faith in the criminal-justice system further erodes. With each document wrongfully withheld, an innocent person faces the chance of wrongful conviction. And with each unforced government error, the likelihood grows that a reviewing court will be forced to reverse a conviction or even dismiss an indictment, resulting in wasted resources, delayed justice, and individuals guilty of crimes potentially going unpunished."
The case is a significant black eye for the U.S. attorney's office in Manhattan, one of the most prestigious and powerful in the country. The judge called for a "full investigation" by the Justice Department's Office of Professional Responsibility.
Sidney Powell, who knows the actions taken by Weissmann and other corrupt prosecutors too well, tweeted about the ruling:
Progress! #SDNY has long been full of dirty prosecutors.#Bannon take note! #Weissmann has been heavily involved there. #Comey daughter too.@SaraCarterDC @jsolomonReports @JackPosobiec @APreate @LeeSmithDC @FrankQuattrone #ProsecutorialMisconduct https://t.co/Si2E1nDpps
— Sidney Powell 🇺🇸⭐⭐⭐ (@SidneyPowell1) September 17, 2020
Yes, this is where fired former FBI Director Jim Comey's daughter now works as well. She's learning from the most corrupt office in the nation.
The SDNY and the Mueller gang are examples of our justice system run amok.
The Justice Department needs to be rebuilt from the ground up in order to bring true justice back to the department and our nation. The political hits by the Democrats must stop! The SDNY is the place to start.

Between the mesmerizing atmospheric breakdown featuring ethereal pads, drones and orchestral elements and the pounding dubstep-infused electro drops, there's nothing not to love about this tune. The sound design is fresh and blends a bit many styles and genres, reminiscing both early dubstep, electro-house and modern midtempo and moombahton, together with some trancy atmosphere thrown in. The transitions between the spaced out breakdowns and the stomping drops are well executed and subtle, giving the track a good feeling cohesiveness. Definitely a tune no electronic lover should miss out on, so go check it out now and let us know what you think!

Remarkable Ohio
Marker 8-44 setting
Side A: Olive Furnace. Olive Furnace in Lawrence County was one of 83 blast furnaces in the Hanging Rock iron-making region of southern Ohio and northern Kentucky. John Campbell (1808-1891), the "Father of Ironton," and others established the furnace in 1846. The base of the furnace is carved out of rock and supported by Roman style arches. Only one of these arches remains some 170 years later. The furnace became a stop on the Underground Railroad. Conductors ushered escaping slaves through the area to points further north. The Olive Furnace was the last charcoal furnace to operate in Lawrence County. After seven decades of service, the furnace was sold and dismantled for scrap in 1915. Olive Furnace was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007. Side B: Same. Same

FRIDAY the 13th may be unlucky for some but one lucky Limerick person is €500,000 richer after winning the top prize in last Friday's EuroMillions Plus draw.
The winning €3 quickpick ticket was sold at Supervalu, Castletroy Shopping Centre two days before the draw.
"It's great, it's fantastic. A lot of people have been coming in since they heard at the weekend," said Miriam Costelloe - a supervisor at the store.
"There has been a great buzz all week because a lot of staff buy their tickets here as well so we were all thinking it was one of the staff," added Miriam who said she has no idea who the winner is.
A spokesperson for the National Lottery confirmed Euromillions Plus, which gives players in the main Euromillions draw a chance to win up to €500,000, is only available in Ireland.
For the record the winning numbers were 3,4,21,27 and 45.
While 91 people across the country matched four numbers, the holder of the winning ticket was the only person to match all five.
Elsewhere there were celebrations at the Amber filling station in Watch House Cross this week after it emerged a local woman beat the odds by winning €30,000 on a scratch card.
The winning Diamond Bingo Doubler card, which costs €3, was sold on the Sunday of the Bank Holiday weekend.
Players who play the game, which was launched last year, have a number of chances to win cash prizes ranging from €4 to €30,000.
According to the National Lottery, just two of the two million scratch cards issued as part of the game contain the top prize of €30,000.
"We knew that it was a big ticket because the lady came back after scratching the ticket to validate it in the machine and it said to contact the lottery headquarters," said Neil McCarthy who operates the Amber store at Watch House Cross.
"We knew then it might have been big but we didn't know how big," added Neil who says he only began selling Scratch Cards in June following the sudden closure of the near Eurospar.
"It's a big thing alright and everybody knows that a local woman won it and a lot of them have figured who she is," said Neil.


Nick Seyler is a Pittsburgh area photographer, audio engineer, and manager who focuses on working closely with musicians. He has learned this from not only being there for it, but experiencing it as a classically trained tubist and a bass player in multiple music projects.
Seyler began shooting at a young; he immediately worked to catalogue the concerts that his friends' bands played at local venues. Having cut his teeth in the hectic world of punk and metal music lends to the raw emotional display of his craft. To this day, though an accomplished portraiture and landscape photographer, his skill truly shines in the world of event photography.
Not only does Seyler have a history in documenting the events of the band, he has experience in recording, mixing, and mastering the bands that he has continued to work with.
These paths of works have not only helped him build relationships with bands that he's worked with, but have allowed him to be a multitool in the development of artists.

Eating clean, healthy food doesn't always have to drain the bank. That's why today I am sharing with you how I learned how to eat organic without going broke.
Wouldn't you love to eat clean organic food that fuels your body, and isn't expensive?
1st? 2nd?10th? How highly do you rate yourself?
Where are you on your own list of priorities? Do you ever put yourself and your needs first? Do you feel guilty about taking time for yourself? Having a bath? Going to a yoga class?
If you answered "yes" to any of the questions above know that you are not alone. Also know that there is hope, and it's never too late to start pushing yourself up your own priority list.
You count calories, you skip meals, you work out like crazy, yet the pointer on the scale is not moving. That's because dieting, calorie restriction and depravation is actually counterproductive!

WESTERN MAIL SATURDAY 20th of SEPTEMBER 2008 VIEWS FROM THE EDITOR ON PRESUMED CONSENT
EDITORIAL WESTERN MAIL VIEWS OF THE NEWSPAPER AND PEOPLE LIKE US COUNCIL
THE question of whether we should opt out of donating our organs should we die remains a divisive one, as the political developments we report today demonstrate. The Assembly's health committee rejected the idea, preferring to stick with the current system where people have to opt in and sign up for a donor card.
The committee decided switching the rules around would be a "distraction" from efforts to encourage more people to sign up.
Its report also suggested that public opinion was not ready to make the switch – something that seems unlikely.
Yet not every AM on the committee was convinced by this line of argument, and it seems Health Minister Edwina Hart is open to the idea of a change in policy. She said yesterday she would not rule out asking for the powers to be transferred from London to Cardiff Bay so Wales could make its own decisions on the issue.
Her response to the health committee sensibly pointed out the report did not reflect the range of different views on the question. In short, the health committee ducked the issue; it would be better to be bold, and take a position that says Wales should lead the way.
The devolution settlement allows Ministers to ask Westminster for extra powers; it should do so in this case, and a decision on whether Wales should be the first part of the UK to have a system of presumed consent in organ donations should be made by the Assembly. That decision should come in a free vote of all 60 AMs, and not be decided by a Minister or a health committee that is itself split on the issue.
We think presumed consent is a simple and sensible move forward. It's clear that the present system does not work well enough; not enough people carry donor cards, and the waiting lists for transplants goes up and up.
Changing the policy costs nothing, save for a necessary public information campaign, and has the potential to make a huge difference to thousands of families.
Far too many people are suffering the distress of seeing loved ones fighting for life while a desperate search for donors goes on – surely we can rewrite the rules and reduce their pain? There are now 501 people waiting for a transplant, the highest ever number. With the figures heading in the wrong direction, the time is right for radical action.
Some will object that the state has no place in automatically claiming rights over a person's body. But this would be presumed consent, not compulsory donation. Those who feel strongly can easily opt out, and some doubtless will.
But that isn't an argument for doing nothing. The present system doesn't work well enough, and causes unnecessary suffering. The Assembly Government should seek the power to do something about it – and show it's brave enough to lead the way.

En anekdote er en kort, ofte morsom fortælling, der som regel fremhæver en bestemt pointe. Anekdoten handler oftest om en historisk person. En anekdote er forskellig fra en vittighed, fordi dens formål ikke alene er at fremkalde latter, men at også at pege hen på en pointe, der er mere almengyldig end anekdoten selv.

Ordet anekdote (på græsk: anekdoton (ἀνέκδοτον), "ikke offentliggjort", egentlig "ikke givet ud") betød oprindelig noget, der ikke er offentliggjort, og som bliver overleveret mundtligt. Udtrykket stammer fra den østromerske historieskriver Procopius (ca. 500 – efter 565), der skrev om den østromerske kejser Justinian 1. (483-565). Han udgav en bog med titlen "Anekdoter" (Ἀνέκδοτα), undertiden oversat som "Hemmelig historie", der handler om de hemmelige historier og intriger i kejserens private liv. Bogen blev ikke udgivet i Procopius´ samtid - først i 1623.

Anekdoter kan både omhandle virkelige og opdigtede hændelser. De bliver dog præsenteret som om de omhandler en virkelig hændelse med faktisk eksisterende personer, og som regel på et identificerbart sted.

Et eksempel på en anekdote er følgende: Verdenserobreren Alexander den Store mødte engang den kyniske filosof Diogenes, der levede et enkelt, nøjsomt liv og boede i en tønde. Alexander spurgte ham: 'Har du et ønske, som jeg kan opfylde?' Diogenes svarede: 'Ja. Flyt dig lidt, så solen kan skinne på mig.'

Anekdoten findes i mange versioner. De fleste versioner bygger på Plutarchs (ca. 45 - 120 e.Kr.) beretning, men den historiske sandhed er tvivlsom. Det er usandsynligt, at Alexander og Diogenes nogensinde har mødt hinanden.

Anekdoten illustrerer forskellen mellem verdenserobreren, der er fuldt bevidst om sin magt, rigdom og ære, og den kyniske filosof, der kun har foragt til overs for disse værdier, og som lægger vægt på de enkle værdier. Dermed har den en pointe, der peger ud over anekdoten selv, og som er uafhængig af, om den er historisk sand.

Anekdoten er altså sikkert uhistorisk. Andre anekdoter kan dog godt have en historisk kerne.

Half of 18 to 24-year-olds polled in a new YouGov survey said social media was more "influential" than newspapers in helping them decide who to vote for in this year's general election.
The survey of 1,600 British adults, commissioned by the London Press Club, sought to establish "how today's voters get their political news".
Options included: Television, family members, newspapers, magazines, friends and colleagues, radio, and social media. Respondents answered on a scale of influence spanning "a great deal", "a substantial amount", "some influence", "no influence", "did not vote", and "don't know".
Less than a third of young adults (28 per cent) said newspapers and magazines had influenced their voting decision, compared to the 50 per cent who said social media had influenced them.
Press Gazette analysis of Buzzsumo statistics during the election campaign revealed that news stories on social media were overwhelmingly anti-Tory.
But, the overall view of the general public saw respondents claim that newspapers and magazines had more influence over their voting choices than social media at 32 per cent to 26 per cent.
When asked if they recalled any of the newspapers coming out in support of a particular party, considerably more respondents said they could recall the stance taken by the Daily Mail (35 per cent) and The Sun (33 per cent) compared with other national papers and weekly news magazines.
Newspapers that backed a political party at the general election were overwhelmingly more likely to make readers vote for the party they were going to vote for anyway, rather than encouraging them to switch allegiances, the poll found.
Among respondents who could recall which newspapers backed a party, The Sun had the highest rate of those who said its support made them "less likely" to vote for the party they were going to vote for (at 5 per cent).
The results of the YouGov survey were revealed at a debate hosted by the London Press Club and Society of Editors at the Reuters building in Canary Wharf last week.
Andrew Rawnsley, political columnist for the Observer, chaired the debate and asked whether "it was the readers wot won it".
Panelists included Daily Mail columnist Amanda Platell, Independent columnist John Rentoul, Reuters Europe/Middle East editor Simon Robinson and Politicshome.com editor Kevin Schofield.
Rentoul told the 160-strong audience that the results showed the distinction that existed in people's minds between the "mainstream media" and "social media" was breaking down.
"Most of the traditional media are on social media and although journalism is changing, with many new entrants, the division between new and old is not as absolute as people often think," he said.
YouGov associate director Darren Yaxley, who presented the findings, said the poll showed that while social media channels are particularly influential among younger voters, the research also found that this group had not turned their backs on traditional media sources.
"Even in the digital age traditional news sources such as newspapers and television remain more popular, important and influential than social media," he said.
48 per cent said they still thought that newspapers have a "significant impact on the outcome" of elections.
43 per cent of voters think that a newspaper's endorsement of a political party is "damaging for democracy" compared to 23 per cent who said it gave press "more transparency".

Q: OS X Mail Data Detectors - how to format signature Is there any special formatting to get the data detectors show this banner? (When the contact is not in the address book)

The data detectors seems to find my signature, and when I click the little arrow button offer to add the contact. But the banner seems to appear at random.

A: From the behavior I see on my system I am going to say it is looking for full signatures in emails that include phone #s and maybe addresses and emails. If it sees changed information then it pops up.
As far as new contacts it seems to look for the same. I have plenty of emails with no phone or email and that never pops up. Or with emails that have just a name and email address where I can get a drop down arrow but the line you have in your question does not come up.

Recently, SFEI has updated the GreenPlan-IT Site Locator Tool, a module within the toolkit, to version 2.1, furthering its functionality and usefulness of outputs. With this version of the tool, users can select a specific location to learn more about the specific opportunities and constraints that resulted in its final ranking. Furthermore, four new types of green infrastructure have been added to the tool: bioretention with and without and underdrains, tree boxes/wells, and flow through planter boxes. In version 2.1 each type of green infrastructure can have a type specific ranking applied to it as some opportunities and constraints affect only some types of installations, but not others. Aside from these larger updates, there have also been improvements to documentation and tool description, standardization and refinement in output symbolization, terminology used, the automatic creation of output maps in multiple formats, and general improvement in the efficiency of the analysis process and code. With these changes, users will have greater flexibility in running the tool for different types of green infrastructure and also be able to communicate their outputs more effectively for planning level documents.
Background: The GreenPlan-IT toolkit works at a watershed scale to identify potential locations, evaluate their effectiveness, and track their performance and contribution to achieving programmatic goals for reductions in pollutant and storm water runoff. GreenPlan-IT meetings municipality needs of Municipal Regional Permit compliance by providing a scientifically sound planning tool to support green infrastructure master plans, in order to guide future green infrastructure implementation. The GreenPlan-IT toolkit consists of four tools: The Site Locator Tool, The Hydrologic Model, The Optimization Tool, and the Green Infrastructure Tracker. The Site Locator Tool identifies potential locations for different types of green infrastructure and applies a custom ranking based on local data and priorities. The Hydrologic Model identifies critical areas for runoff and pollutant source areas and provides the ability to compare runoff and water quality conditions before and after green infrastructure implementation. The Optimization Tool runs hundred of green infrastructure buildout scenarios and identifies the installation configuration that provides the greatest reduction in stormwater runoff and pollution load for the lowest cost. Lastly, the Green Infrastructure Tracker is a web tool that can track specific green infrastructure installations in terms of maintenance needs and performance, as well as allowing the user to aggregate the effect of multiple installations, for a user defined area, to produce reports for easy communication and reporting needs.
We invite you to visit http://greenplanit.sfei.org/ for access to this free to use tool and to learn more about it's capabilities.

Few genres have become as formulaic as horror movies, and one of the better things you can say about Luca Guadagnino's reimagining of Dario Argento's 1977 slasher classic is that it avoids the cliches you expect. Unfortunately, it replaces them with other cliches, mostly from opera and political thrillers. In fact, it's probably best not to categorize this new version of Suspiria as a horror film, since it will mislead fans of the genre—there's not a whole lot of suspense, and rather than gore the film charges its shocks with unsettlingly bizarre visuals—and repel those who usually eschew horror movies, though even this latter group might find it difficult to swallow.
Having never seen the original, I approached it with an open mind and, since I don't really like conventional horror, the movie exerted a certain peculiar fascination, though, to tell the truth, I really had no idea what was going on from scene to scene and would have a very hard time trying to explain the plot in detail. The story takes place in Berlin in the autumn of 1977, when West Germany was going through political upheaval due to antics by the likes of the Red Army Faction. A member of a local avant garde dance troupe, Patricia (Chloe Grace Moretz), consults with an elderly psychiatrist (Tilda Swinton with tons of makeup) about a coven of witches who use the dance company as a kind of front. When Patricia disappears, the doctor tries to investigate the dance troupe to find out what happened to her, and in the process we learn that he lost his wife in the Holocaust, though it's not clear if she was killed or just disappeared, like Patricia. Eventually, this through-story becomes annoyingly complex and muddied as Guadagnino intercuts it with scenes from inside the dance troupe that suggest the leader, Madame Blanc (also Swinton), is, in fact, a witch who recruits young women as dancers to fulfill some sort of Satanic inevitability that I could never really figure out. The film shifts its focus on a new American recruit, Susie (Dakota Johnson), who has escaped a rigidly religious upbringing in the Midwest to feed her art jones in Europe's most celebrated divided city.
To say the dance sequences, which are set to Thom Yorke's hyperventilating score, are ridiculous is to question the film's priorities. Good horror revels in ludicrous brainstorms, but one thing that Suspiria truly lacks is a relatable sense of humor. The scary scenes are usually built around body horror meant to mimic the unnatural choreography that Madame Blanc favors, and which Susie seems to understand preternaturally. There is a kind of genius to these scenes, though they aren't really scary, just discomfiting, and, to paraphrase Bob Dylan, they sit in the movie like a battleship in a bathtub, overcompensating for the meandering plot and the confused themes. And it just goes on forever. One thing you have to say about Suspiria is that its original, but I'm not sure if that's what horror fans are really into.

Dante and Dylan are both hatted up today.
Dante's having a regular old hayday down on the farm in his cowboy hat made of straw.
He says "Hay, how are ya?"
Dylan is 'at large' in the jungle in his pith helmet.
"I say wot -- wot a pithy, that is!", says he.
Dante and Dylan suffer from "Cat in the Hat Syndrome", but they both see it as a puss -- oops, I mean plus.


PUBLIC C7 in Gold Dust, by Roman Muradov.
We're smitten with the bike illustrations Roman Murdov created for our Minerals, Rock! campaign supporting our glittery, Limited Edition bike colors named after precious minerals. Roman is an acclaimed artist and author (his latest book came out in November 2016), whose illustrations have been featured in the NY Times (most recently here), Vogue, The New Yorker and countless other publications. Roman is based in San Francisco (home of our flagship store) and we were able to catch up with him over a cup of coffee to learn more about his creative process and, of course, what bikes mean to him.
ROMAN: Author, illustrator, originally from Russia, living in San Francisco for the last 8 years. I do illustration for the NY Times, the New Yorker, Penguin, and many other magazines and publishers. I've also written and drawn several books of my own. They are hard to classify, I suppose they fall somewhere between graphic novels and visual poetry.
PUBLIC V1 in Cobalt, by Roman Muradov.
PUBLIC: How did you get your start?
ROMAN: I was first a Petroleum Engineer back in Russia. Fortunately or unfortunately I had a somewhat late start, and began working on my art only in my mid 20s. All hardships aside, I think it made me appreciate drawing for a living way more than if I'd started early on. I tried a lot of things and worked a ton of odd (and very odd) jobs, so maybe my current work is also another protracted stage. Initially, drawing was a way to attract people to my writing, but now it's an important part of my life.
My first big break was with the New Yorker. My career was slow to develop, but after several years I picked up more and more magazine work. Because of my literary obsessions I'm often pigeonholed for fiction and conceptual assignments, which is my favorite thing to do.
ROMAN: My books. I think the latest one, Jacob Bladders & the State Of Art, turned out quite well. I wrote, illustrated and designed the whole thing, and the book does feel like a manifestation of my personality. It was an intense labor of love.
PUBLIC V7 in Moonstone, by Roman Muradov.
PUBLIC: You also teach art?
ROMAN: I teach at California College of the Arts. Usually I do an illustration class, and my own elective class that explores the intersection of writing and drawing.
I think it's a strange and exciting time for illustration, old models give way to new ones and no one knows what will happen tomorrow. We live in a predominantly visual culture, but we still cling dearly to language, so when the two intersect in a new way it pushes the whole industry forward.
Considering that my work can be pretty melancholy, I guess I'm fairly optimistic about the state of the art.
Roman, riding his PUBLIC D8i.
ROMAN: The bicycle is something of a childhood dream for me. I never had one as a child and I've always wanted one. Then there's a lot of bikes in my favorite books, Beckett for instance and Alfred Jarry.
The walking rhythm is a big influence on my writing, so I write most of my stuff on walks. Bikes seem to be a good a mid-point between walking and in a car. You still have a connection to the rhythm when biking. I'm curious to see how cycling will affect my sentences.
PUBLIC C7 in Black Amethyst, by Roman Muradov.
ROMAN: I'm fond of Ina Coolbrith park, it has a great view of San Francisco. When I lived near in the area, I walked to that park nearly every day. All the abundance of shifting lights and smells in that little space is very unique, even for San Francisco, a city that has no shortage of neat places.
I am interested to explore the different places that a bike will be able to take me. Seeing how one neighborhood flows into the other and so forth.
PUBLIC: What's up next for you?
ROMAN: Writing my first non-fiction book on the subject of doing nothing. Absurdly, I am working very hard on it. We live in a world, where the business of life is replacing life itself. I'm hoping this book will remind people to take a pause for contemplation whenever possible.
Also I'm writing and drawing an encyclopedic comic book about the flood.
Now, listen to the rap + video featuring Roman's illustrations!

David knew Prof's secret, and kept it even when Prof struggled to control the effects of his Epic powers. But facing Obliteration in Babilar was too much.

Sun Tzu said: We may distinguish six kinds of terrain, to wit: (1) Accessible ground; (2) entangling ground; (3) temporizing ground; (4) narrow passes; (5) precipitous heights; (6) positions at a great distance from the enemy.
Ground which can be freely traversed by both sides is called accessible.
With regard to ground of this nature, be before the enemy in occupying the raised and sunny spots, and carefully guard your line of supplies. Then you will be able to fight with advantage.
Ground which can be abandoned but is hard to re-occupy is called entangling.
When the position is such that neither side will gain by making the first move, it is called temporizing ground.
In a position of this sort, even though the enemy should offer us an attractive bait, it will be advisable not to stir forth, but rather to retreat, thus enticing the enemy in his turn; then, when part of his army has come out, we may deliver our attack with advantage.
Should the army forestall you in occupying a pass, do not go after him if the pass is fully garrisoned, but only if it is weakly garrisoned.
If the enemy has occupied them before you, do not follow him, but retreat and try to entice him away.
These six are the principles connected with Earth. The general who has attained a responsible post must be careful to study them.
Now an army is exposed to six several calamities, not arising from natural causes, but from faults for which the general is responsible. These are: (1) Flight; (2) insubordination; (3) collapse; (4) ruin; (5) disorganization; (6) rout.
When the higher officers are angry and insubordinate, and on meeting the enemy give battle on their own account from a feeling of resentment, before the commander-in-chief can tell whether or no he is in a position to fight, the result is ruin.
When the general is weak and without authority; when his orders are not clear and distinct; when there are no fixes duties assigned to officers and men, and the ranks are formed in a slovenly haphazard manner, the result is utter disorganization.
Regard your soldiers as your children, and they will follow you into the deepest valleys; look upon them as your own beloved sons, and they will stand by you even unto death.
If we know that the enemy is open to attack, and also know that our men are in a condition to attack, but are unaware that the nature of the ground makes fighting impracticable, we have still gone only halfway towards victory.


Have you ever heard of the Bible verse ""as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he," Proverbs 23:7.
Well since I've been unable to go to the gym, I went to the local library and picked up some readings. VISUALIZATION FOR WEIGHT LOSS is a book that I stumbled across while browsing the books stands. This book was written on the same principles of the Bible verse. One can change anything, if he/she believes, thinks, and visualize.
In the book, Gabriel describes his own personal battles with obesity. He explains how he meditated day after day and visualized what he'd look like his new ideal body. The daily meditations changed his mindset, his appetite, and ultimately changed his body. He was able to lose 220 pounds!
Gabriel speaks of reasons why our bodies hold on to fat, and reasons why diets do not work. Gabriel offers testimonies from his own clients using visualization to obtain their weight loss goals as well. He also uses examples of successful individuals from various industries that have used visualization to accomplish their life's goals (ex. Jim Carey, Arnold Schwarzenegger's, etc).
This was an enlightening, inspiring book. I've practiced some of the visualizations described in the book. From my own experience, I have noticed that my sugar cravings have reduced significantly. I lost 3 pounds in the past week (without going into the gym), and I'm contributing it to the visualization practices. I will continue to meditate and visualize in hopes of achieving weight loss. But even if no weight loss occurred, I'm putting my mind at ease and I'm thinking/feeling/being positive about my journey.

The First Altruistic Performance is a solo performance by Marko Bulc, created a decade after his last solo project entitled The Last Egoistic Performance. This time, the author deals with the topic at the opposite extreme – altruism.
The First Altruistic Performance is based on the author's frustration and dissatisfaction with most of the so‑called artivistic projects (including his own), which exploit unfortunate, unjust, illegal, and similar miserable situations of the other and the others for self‑promotion and to strengthen their artistic ego, while being for the most part self‑sufficiently confined within the boundaries of the art system.
Although Bulc decided to make a performance about altruism, he did not invite his colleagues to join him. He wanted to do everything by himself. And he did. And in the end, he also collected the fees of the potential co-creators of the performance. One for everything, one for all! Does this seem altruistic?
Bulc has entered the process through two forms of training – Urban Heat workshops and seminars – held in Munich, Lisbon, Dro, London, and Maribor as part of the Urban Heat project, learning about different artivistic practices in the urban environment, as well as through practical training for lecturer‑guide at the Urban Culture Institute in Ljubljana, which organizes alternative urban walks around Ljubljana, including Ljubljana Alternative Tour, which is now actually led by Marko Bulc.

Abbey Thickson, 13, was looking for a movie role to expand her acting resume, and she certainly found it.
The amiable girl from Selkirk has gone from playing Gretl in the delightful musical The Sound of Music at Rainbow Stage to starring in the Winnipeg-produced movie The Divide, which has the Manitoba rating 18A (brutal violence, sexual violence, coarse language, adverse psychological impact).
While The Divide won't be the "feel-good movie of the year," escaping a nuclear attack was a blast for the Grade 8 student from Lockport Junior High.
"It was a great experience," said Thickson, who joined the cast and producers on Thursday at the Hotel Fort Garry to celebrate the premiere. "Getting to know everybody, since I was the only kid, was very easy and they were all really nice to me.
"When we were practicing, (co-star) Milo (Ventimiglia) looked at me every time somebody swore and made the gesture to put money in the swear jar."
The Divide is directed by Xavier Gens and stars Michael Biehn (The Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss), Ventimiglia (Heroes), Michael Eklund (The Day) and Rosanna Arquette (Pulp Fiction). Thickson plays Arquette's daughter in the post-apocalyptic thriller where nine strangers — all tenants of a New York apartment — escape a nuclear attack by hiding out in the building's basement.
Trapped for days underground, with only unspeakable horrors awaiting them on the other side of the door, the group descends into madness, each turning on one another.
Filming was done over a couple of months in 2010, mostly at the Manitoba Production Centre on Pacific Avenue, and the Millennium Centre.
"Whenever they thought something was too scary or graphic they'd show my mom the script, and if she thought it was too graphic we would (leave the set)," said Thickson.
A scene where Thickson was "abducted" was a little tough on her mom, Diane, but not so for her brother, Morgan, 15.
"In the scene I'm crying and screaming, yelling 'Mommy! Mommy! Mommy!'" she described. "My mom started crying, but my brother was laughing. I got a lot of people on set crying, like the hairdresser and makeup artist.
"The people on set were trying not to hurt me but trying to make it look as real as possible."
Thickson especially enjoyed working with Arquette.
"She is so sweet and so loving," Thickson said. "She truly treated me like one of her kids on set.
"She would give me lots of hugs and when we had to do scenes when a lot of dust was falling, she'd make sure I had my mask on and was really taking care of me when everybody else was busy."
Thickson's father Stuart was going through cancer treatments during filming. His recovery continues, Thickson said, adding the work provided her with a release.
"It was a good way for me to get all of my stress out," she said. "If my dad was going through a hard day, it made it easier for me to be the little kid I needed to be on the set."
That little kid still isn't old enough to see The Divide at the theatre.
"Maybe once it's released I'll get it and we can watch it (as a family) and get through some of the scary parts," she said. "I'm not very good with scary movies. This is the type of movie my brother would like to watch."
Producer Darryn Welch had high praise for Thickson as well as Winnipeg.
"I'm actually looking at bringing two other films to Winnipeg myself at the moment," he said. "I'd happily go back there again.
"I just hope it's in the summer."

Places to Explore in Mississauga

Posted: Dec/02/2009 at 12:25pm
Check out this list of cool places to explore in Mississauga, from VirtualTourist. Stroll through Belfountain, a historic hamlet Address: Extreme north of Mississauga Road Directions: Take Mississauga Road north from Steeles Avenue and continue driving till you see the Welcome Board to the hamlet. From the Terra Cotta Restaurant, we drove east to take Mississauga Road. Driving North, we entered Belfountain, a historic hamlet (population about 400) in the Caledon Hills. The homes on Mississauga Road itself look beautiful in mid and late spring with all kinds of Daffodils and Tulips in blossom. At the main intersection, we found antique shops on our left, which offered good items to buy, and a small restaurant on the northwest corner, which is a Mecca for motorcyclists during late spring, summer and early fall. We hiked on the extensive hiking trails snaking around the village, which is also a popular spot of fishing. Of the latter activity, we heard from a resident, but never went for it ourselves. In 1910, the White Mountain Spring Water Company, which was later known as Canada Dry, used to bottle spring water here. This water was eventually used for making ginger ale. There is a general store, which is operating for over 100 years now, a small icecream parlor (see picture # 1) and a small pub. Admire Cheltenham Badlands Directions: From Highway 401, take Mississauga Road north to Old Base Line Road. Turn right to reach the site. From King Street in Terra Cotta, we headed east and reached Mississauga Road. Heading north we drove till Old Base Line Road and then turned east again to reach Cheltenham Badlands. This heritage site is very popular with the tourists. The rolling hills of the red clay predominant in this area provide a spectacular view of the surrounding countryside. Of particular interest is the outcrop of Queenston shale that has been badly eroded, creating a small but impressive "badland" like those of southern Alberta and Dakotas. The badland may have developed when the land was cleared. The overlying topsoil washed away, exposing the clay, which then succumbed to the forces of erosion. It has to be noted that this land is privately owned and should be visited with utmost care and respect. Through Churchville and along Credit River Driving or cycling along Credit River is quite picturesque. Credit River starts at Orangeville, flows all the way South through Caledon Hills, Brampton, and Mississauga before falling in Lake Ontario. Although there are other parks all along the Credit River, we have focused on Meadowvale Conservation Park in Mississauga and more importantly on Churchville, a small residential community in Brampton just north of Mississauga. A stroll or bicycling across this small community can be most rewarding. Specially one can have a good view upstream and downstream of the River standing on the bridge. We took the photograph of Canada Geese landing on the river from the bridge. Explore Rattray Marsh Conservation Area Address: 50 Bexhill Road Phone: 905-823-1572 Directions: Lakeshore Boulevard west just before Clarkson Road. Website: www.creditvalleycons.com/recandleisure/rattray.htm This is undoubtedly Mississauga's best kept secret. We discovered this Marsh at the mouth of the Credit River by a stroke of good luck in November 2006. The Marsh is located in the southwest of Mississauga over Lake Ontario. The best way to reach there is to take QEW / 403 South at Hurontario and drive up to Lakeshore Boulevard. Turn towards west on the Boulevard. This Boulevard itself is worth window shopping. There are many Lakeside parks and cycling tracks. Turn left at Bexhill Road and drive till you reach the gates of the park. As soon as we found out about the marsh in late fall, we decided to visit it to see what is it all about and if we would like to visit it in spring and summer. Answer: Yes, this conservation area is awesome, right in our backyard, in the middle of densely populated region. When we visited the Marsh, we found it to be drying, leaves had long fallen from the trees, no wildlife except squirrels busy searching for nuts, and visitors walking their dogs. However, the books on this conservation area suggest it attracts many birds, has many trees growing in it and is home to many types of flowers starting from spring and lasting till fall. The boardwalks, many kms long, are well maintained and are raised enough to get beautiful views and pictures. Fishing and cycling are not allowed in the area. Indulge in activities at Lakefront Promenade Park Address: Off Lakeshore Road, east of Highway 10 Phone: 905-615-4870 Directions: Directions: From Highway 401, take an exit to Hurontario South. Continue on it crossing Burnhamthorpe and Dundas to finally reach Lakeshore Road. Head East to the signpost for the park pass Cawthra Road. Lakefront Promenade Park is one of the largest waterfront developments in Ontario with more than 40 hectares (104 acres) of public parkland for outdoor recreation. It is a place to head for to get away from the busy life of the city. There are regular concerts in the park during summers. The park has protected harbor for two marina facilities and colorful sail boats also head out for the lake. There is a playgound area that features a water splash pad and play apparatus shaped like a 60 foot ship. There are boardwalks, picnic areas, and walking and cycling paths. Besides, you will be rewarded with beautiful distant views of Toronto highrises. The park is very busy in summers, but not annoyingly so. The creek gets many feathered friends all the year round looking for you to feed them. See the picture. There is no entrance and parking fee. * * * To see the full list, click here: http://www.virtualtourist.com/travel/North_America/Canada/Province_of_Ontario/Mississauga-906482/Things_To_Do-Mississauga-BR-1.html

Through SRS, Lisa Dolan and her team expect to transform men's shopping through a seamless, omni-channel personalized shopping portal for men. While working in finance, Dolan saw firsthand how her busy colleagues had little time or patience for traditional shopping methods.

Q: What wrong with my code in C# windowsform I want to do is to enter items and its price in a listbox
and finally capture the total price of the items
This is the code that I have so far
 private void btnItems_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Market super = new Market();
        //  double total = 0;
        super._items = txtItems.Text;
        txtItems.Text = string.Empty;
        super._price = Convert.ToDouble(txtPrice.Text);
        txtPrice.Text = string.Empty;

        lstShow.Items.Add(super._items + " $ " + super._price);

    }

    private void btnPrice_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
         Market super = new Market();
         lstShow.Items.Add("---------------------------------");
         decimal suma = 0;
         foreach (var item in lstShow.Items)
         {
             decimal d = Convert.ToDecimal(item); //OJO solo para Winforms y si se metieron los items con un formato compatible con Decimal
             suma += d;
         }
         txtTotal.Text=(suma.ToString());

    }

but show this exception :(
An unhandled exception of type 'System.FormatException' occurred in mscorlib.dll

Additional information:
Input string was not in a correct format

A: A wild guess it's that you get the error trying to convert this:
lstShow.Items.Add("---------------------------------");

to a decimal
Convert.ToDecimal(item);

as it's clearly not. Remove that value and try again or if you absolutely want to keep it in the list try using Double.TryParse(item); instead. See the documentation for Double.TryParse().

A: I suggest to change your class Market to add an override of the ToString method
public class Market
{
     public string _items {get;set;}
     public string _price {get;set;}

     public override string ToString()
     {
         return this._items + " $ " + this._price
     }
}

Now when you add items to the listbox add directly the Market instance
private void btnItems_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Market super = new Market();
    .....
    lstShow.Items.Add(super);
}

The listbox will call the ToString() method of the class Market showing your data in the format required, but every item in the ListBox is a Market instance not a simple string. This will allow
the following code in the calculation method
suma = 0;
foreach (Market item in lstShow.Items)
{
    suma += item._price;
}
txtTotal.Text=suma.ToString();

Of course remove the String added at the end or just create a new Market with this
Market m = new Market();
m._items = "----------------------------------------";
m._price = suma;
lstShow.Items.Add(m);


Easter Island claims to be the most remote inhabited place on Earth, its closest inhabited piece of land is 2'075 km away, and on that island there only live 100 people!
Easter Island is most famous for its Moai statues which were erected by the locals and for which all trees of the island were used. What followed was a clan war during which all the statues were toppled over and some partly destroyed. That the statues are standing again is due to a large restoration project, which was started in the later half of the 20th century.
What is not so well known, is that Easter Island is also an interesting diving destination, which I discovered after arranging my stay there. (Originally I didn't want to go to Easter Island, but the only flight connection from South America to French Polynesia stops in Easter Island and so my travel agent rightly suggested I should stop there a couple of days.) The visibility was breathtaking, in some places at least 50 meters and the water was crystal clear. The corals were also in very good shape, the only thing that was lacking were the fish. We did see some fish, but not in the numbers that the reef could have supported. This is mostly due to overfishing.
A special highlight was the dive near the harbor, where a fake Moai statue was placed after Hollywood shot a movie on the island. It is a very cool sight if you swim around a block of corals and suddenly see a Moai in front of you :).
Because almost everything closed up on Sunday, I used the last two days for sightseeing. First I went to Rano Kau, the former volcano crater in the South-West of the island for Geocaching and Culture. The view of the volcano was breathtaking, it wasn't just a crater lake, but it was filled with small islands and looked almost like a MOOR. Orongo, the former cultural center is located on the crater rim as well and it was partially restored as part of the National Park and made accessible for tourists.
On my last day, I did the truly touristy thing and took part in a full-day tour, which brought us to the quarry, where the Moai were constructed and there we could still see dozens of partially finished or even finished Moai, including the biggest Moai never completed, which was planned to be 21 meters high!
Overall, I stayed 6 "full" days on Easter Island (counting arrival and departure days, because I arrived at 7am and left at 10pm), which was ideal for the combination of diving and sightseeing I did. Just for sightseeing it would have been way too long, it is a small island after all ;). I enjoyed my stay on the island, but it didn't make my list of places I have to go back to, seeing it once was just right.
All the pictures can be found in my web album.

In search of the secret recipe for a proper Manchester tart
George Matthews meets the Manc Family Robinson, tastes a Manchester loaf, and tries to get their secret recipe for a proper Manchester tart
By George Matthews
As a southerner, Manchester tart is not something I grew up with. For others, though, it can bring back mixed emotions of childhood and awful school dinners. It warrants a mention in Peter Kay's autobiography The Sound of Laughter, although he may just have wanted to make the obvious joke: "You can never have too much Manchester tart. Paddy McGuinness will back me up on that one. Only he won't be talking about the pudding." Right, now we've got that out of the way, no need for any more sniggering at each mention of Manchester tarts.
There is no definitive recipe for the Manchester tart although it is now generally accepted that the fundamental ingredients are shortcrust pastry, red jam (usually raspberry), custard, coconut and a cherry on the top. Marcus Wareing revamped the recipe a few years ago adding rum-glazed bananas but this remains a controversial ingredient.
The origins are normally traced back to everyone's favourite plagiarist, Mrs Isabella Beeton. Her Book of Household Management was first published in 1861 but there is no sign that this particular recipe was, errr, borrowed from one of her favourite sources – Eliza Acton's Modern Cookery for Private Families (1845).
Mrs Beeton's recipe is for a 'Manchester pudding' which is similar to what we would recognise as the tart today but lacks the coconut which you would have been unlikely find in a Victorian Tesco. I'm sure there is a Monty Python sketch in there somewhere.
Surprisingly academic writing on the Manchester tart seems to be lacking. It does, however, get a mention in a couple of places. In a 1946 article about the favourite foods of children in the East End of London in the Second World War, the Manchester tart is listed in the top 5 favourite dishes, losing out only to pancakes and exotic canned fruits such as pineapple and loganberries. Right at the bottom of the list, by way of contrast, is rice pudding made with dried milk which only got 2 votes in favour and 2,312 against.
The other article I found is in the journal of Epidemiology and Infection (stay with me here). The article covers a 2003 outbreak of gastroenteritis on the British Royal Fleet Auxiliary ship Argus deployed in the Northern Arabian Gulf. The purpose of the study was to see if the source of the bug could be traced back to a particular foodstuff, given the details of who had eaten what over the course of a couple of days and who had become ill.
It turns out that those who had eaten the salad were six times more likely to have been struck down than those who ate the Manchester tart. What do I conclude from this? That Manchester tart is better for you than salad. Thank you epidemiological analysis. Who am I to argue with the maths?
The Manchester loaf, on the other hand, does not have such a rich history. It's a soft yet crusty white cob loaf, sometimes called a Manchester cob, cut in a distinctive criss-cross pattern.
I caught up with David and Grace Robinson, the father/daughter (fifth and sixth generation respectively) team who run Robinson's Bakery in Failsworth, to find out more about the Manchester tart and loaf. They claim to be Manchester's oldest family-run bakery, having been established in 1864. Their current site opened in 1954 after a move from Rochdale Road in Harpurhey.
The bakery now occupies two adjoining properties at 69 and 71 Ashton Road East, David having lived with his parents in one of the properties before the bakery needed to expand. I am greeted by Grace and taken into the rabbit warren of mixers, ovens and sheets of freshly baked pastries, pies, tarts and bread behind the counter.
It's a busy kitchen with people dancing around each other and timers going off every 30 seconds. Pretty much everything is made by hand here, and they are passionate about preserving the traditional methods used to make their products.
We start with the Manchester loaf. As Grace puts it down on the bench and is about to cut into it, one of the other bakers walks past and says, "Is that a Manchester loaf? YESSSS!" "This one eats and eats all day," says Grace. "This is the Manchester loaf. It's basically a white dough that we hand mould – we hand mould all the bread. When it's ready to go into the oven we cut it into a hedgehog. We have to make sure we bake it long enough at the right temperature and the right moisture in the oven to get the crust on it. If you feel that, it feels like a pillow but still really really crusty on the outside, which is why we sell so many of them."
She's not wrong. It's the softest bread I have ever felt, and the crust is crisp and chewy. A crustless sandwich made with this bread? Not on your life. I start to pry. "Is there something like milk in there?" "Nope," Grace replies. "It's literally just flour, water, salt and yeast." Looks like I'm not going to be getting their secrets to making the perfect loaf any time soon.
Just as I'm shoving a large piece of sourdough into my mouth, David arrives. "Another ginger, eh?" he says with a smile, referring to his daughter and me.
David tells me about various bits of TV exposure that they've had in the past few years that have helped business. They were visited for an episode of My Life on a Plate featuring Arlene Phillips, an episode of Len and Ainsley's Big Food Adventure, and have even been involved with election coverage.
"We were on Granada TV for the 2010 general election. We made American muffins with different flavours for different parties and had what we called a muffinometer. Then we did it again for the election last year."
What motivated you to start producing the Manchester tart in the first place?
David: Manchester tart was one of those things that we weren't taught at college. One of my pals used to say "Why don't you make Manchester tart?" Then shortly afterwards someone came to us, one of the independent coffee shops in Manchester, and said they wanted to do Manchester tarts in all of their shops. So I said we'll make some Manchester tarts. They were selling three or four hundred a day for the Manchester Food Festival, so we carried on making them from then. We did our first market in 2011 and we thought, what can we do that represents Manchester? So we said right, Manchester tarts and we'll do the Manchester loaf. And people went mad for them. You immediately engage with the customers because they say "What's a Manchester tart?" and you start to explain what goes into a Manchester tart and it creates a dialogue. It's not like taking a packet of biscuits off the shelf, there's something more there. After that we did the Christmas markets.
Grace: Yeah, we've got big signs up on our market stall saying 'Manchester tart.' So, first of all, when people see it they start laughing because we've got some girls that stand under the sign. Then they go "Oh, a Manchester tart, I've not seen one for years" and "that looks nicer than what we had at school." We've gone from selling, say 12 a day to say up to 200 hundred.
There doesn't seem to be any kind of definitive recipe for the Manchester tart. What are your feelings on bananas?
David: A lot of people ask us about bananas. They come to the market stall and say "Does it have bananas in it?" We answer "Oh, that's a Salford tart." Most of the people I've spoken to say no, it doesn't have bananas. I suppose it depends which school you went to and who did the school dinners. But I don't think it's got bananas in it. Bananas and custard is a pudding, isn't it. But it's not a Manchester tart as far as I'm concerned.
Does the Manchester tart bring back feelings of nostalgia for you?
David: Unfortunately, for me, school dinners weren't happy. I can remember horrible steamed fish and cabbage that'd been boiled to bits. And prunes. It didn't do anything for me.
Have you ever thought of doing a fancier version?
Grace: We went through a stage of making all the different flavoured ones. We did a chocolate one, a strawberry one and a banoffee one and things like that. It was good for a while, but then we just found that people just wanted a traditional one.
Have you get a secret recipe?
Grace: It's all in the pastry.
David: We follow the recipe 98% of the way but we've made one slight improvement on it we think. But we can't tell anybody.
So there is a secret?
David: We think it makes it a lot nicer.
Something to do with the pastry?
David: Err. I can't tell you.
Foiled again. And I thought I was being so subtle about it.
David: I was brought up in the bakery trade. I was classically trained, went to bakery school. My mum and dad taught me all about it. I went to work in other bakeries to gain experience, and that was what you did 40 years ago. Now there are virtually no bakery schools. I've taught Grace everything she knows. Plus, you can pick up bits and pieces off the internet and talking to other people.
But there's no substitute for being here day in day out?
David: Absolutely. Plus, a lot of the things we make are the old fashioned items, which people still like. You'll always get new trends like cupcakes. We bake a very small number of them, because we bake hundreds of other things. We can only make so much. We're not a factory. We have certain labour saving devices, but everything is pretty much cooked by hand. When you're making bread and pastry, you've got to have that feeling in your fingers. If I'm mixing a dough I can just touch it, and because I've been doing it all my life I know if that's right or if it needs more water or doesn't have sufficient water in it or if it's been mixed enough, all by the feeling. Somebody once said to me when I was very young "David, you should set out to learn something every day of your life" and I've always got that at the back of my mind.
Grace: You almost know how to use Instagram now don't you?
David: Oh I wouldn't go that far.
Grace: I did say almost…
I decided that that was my cue to leave.
You can get your hands of both of these delights and more at the Robinson's bakery in Failsworth or at their stall at Piccadilly Markets on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. I'd grab a loaf of their sourdough, too, while you're at it.

Michael Bublé's 6-Year-Old Son Joins Parents On Instagram After Battling Cancer
April 28, 2020 Entertainment Comments Off on Michael Bublé's 6-Year-Old Son Joins Parents On Instagram After Battling Cancer
Michael Bublé appeared just as surprised as his fans on Friday after an unexpected — and adorable — guest popped in on his latest Instagram Live.
The four-time Grammy winner and his wife, actor Luisana Lopilato, were sharing tips on social distancing during one of their regular Q&A sessions when their 6-year-old son Noah wandered into the frame.
"You can come and say hi. You're always welcome, dude," Bublé said, before the boy climbed up onto Lopilato's lap and urged his father to play a song on his toy guitar. Dad happily obliged, strumming a few cords of Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello's "Señorita."
Elsewhere during the chat, Bublé ― who also shares son Elias, 4, and daughter Vida, 1, with Lopilato ― called Noah "our superhero."
"We have two other superheroes, but this boy … is a big inspiration for us," he added.
The declaration was most likely a nod to Noah's 2016 diagnosis with liver cancer, when he was just 3 years old. Though his son is in remission, Bublé has said the experience continues to influence his outlook on music and the way he interacts with fans.
"When I went through Noah's cancer from the first moment, there was a snap," Bublé told Australia's Herald Sun in 2018. "I remember sitting in the hospital room thinking, 'I was worried about any of that shit? I was worried about record sales or a meme or what some asshole said about me?' In a second, it had gotten so clear."
There was no talk of that on Friday, however. Instead, Bublé and Lopilato chatted with Noah about what to watch during their next family movie night (turns out Noah has some strong feelings about "Barbie" and "Jurassic Park").
Bublé concluded his chat by urging his audience to "stay strong" during the coronavirus pandemic.
"We have good days and bad days," he said. "This family has gone through a lot, and we still go through a lot."
Earlier this year, Bublé postponed the U.S. leg of his latest tour as concerns over the spread of the coronavirus intensified. Fortunately for fans, he revealed on Instagram Saturday that he'd been spending his time in self-isolation working on a new album.

#Naomi #Osaka defeated #Serena #Williams in straight sets to win the #USOpen on Saturday. The Final will be long-remembered for an emotional Williams getting a game penalty for verbally abusing the chair umpire, but it should not take away from Osaka's triumph.
The 20-year-old Osaka has the potential to be the face of global tennis for the next decade, with Williams turning 37 this month. But even if Osaka does not live up to those lofty standards, her position as Japan's top female athlete and first-time Slam winner will skyrocket her income.


This week was just as lame as last week considering so many people (those that I work for) are out this week. But regardless, I still gotta let ya know if anything exciting ever happened! Now, avert your eyes from that ridiculous "Crunchy Nut" commercial and check out my life as a Washingtonian.
Not much happened at work today. I contacted a few people in the NY office for an internship. I have an interview on Friday Yayy! Also, at NGT, I helped with some photo research for John. Fun times!
There was another softball game today, Go Vampire Bats!, and I completely forgot about it. I went to grab a sandwich to make sure that I wasn't hungry aaand the crew left without me. Come on guys!! I had no idea where we were going but it was at least a 20 minute walk.
Phew! On my way there I ran into the Washington Monument.
I also passed by the WWII Memorial.
You see "Texas" Oh yea!
The game was actually near the Vietnam Memorial. Sorry I didn't take any pictures of that. There were TONS of tourists and I was way too hot and sweaty to care about that. Haha.
We won the game, our second win for the season. That's awesome!! Afterwards, I just went home as they were going back to the Exchange.
I don't even remember what I did today. It wasn't very exciting. Just hanging around here and there.
After work, we (Colin and I) went to Corey's house to hang out. It was very cool just chilling with him the both of them. Later on, Erik, Dakota, Paige and Corey's roommate ( I can't remember his name…. Josh??), and Corey's roommate's friend came over. They were going to go bar-hopping. So after about 2.5 hours of just hanging out I headed back home so they could partayy.
Day off from work. WHOOO!!!
Today was a really lame day at work. Haha. Andrew is out because he is feeling under the weather. Get well soon, Andrew!
So.. I went to the Museum today. I mean… I get in for free… why not?! I saw the Titanic exhibit and the Samurai exhibit. The store was pretty awesome, as well.
We couldn't take pictures in the Samurai exhibit, but we could for Titanic. Here is some of what I saw!
1:47 (or so) scale model of the ship.
Captain's Quarters? I cant remember what this was called.
New paper from when Titanic sank.
The number of lives lost…. Sad.
Today was my Skype interview with Audra, the Operations Manager at the NatGeo NY office. It went well I think! We will see what happens. I also got an email from Studio D and they said they would like to set up an interview with me! I hope I get an internship from either NG or StudioD. It would be phenomenal!
At work today, I just helped with some episode work for "The Incredible Dr. Pol." It was super nice working on a show that is actually broadcasting. Yay!
And that's what I did. It's really nice when my clothes are clean and I'm able to fold them on a giant folding table. Dear Laundry room in the house of my dreams, you need a large folding table like the ones in Laundromats! They are fantastic!!
Just watched NCIS and Mythbusters today. Fun fun funnnn.
It's 1 month from my birthday yaaahoo!!!! I just realized that.
I was planning to go to church today, but my body would not let me. Around 10:10, the time when I start getting dressed to head out, I started feeling super nauseated and faint. I think that it is because of my diet. The grocery bags and I need to go shopping today. We will be doing that soon!
Hope you enjoyed my posting for this week! I'll have an update for what my plans became the rest of today, in my next blog posting!
