/ St. Louis Guanella Village Opens Four New Children's Homes
St. Louis Guanella Village Opens Four New Children's Homes
June 26, 2018 - Chelsea, MI
A new era began for the Guanellian Family in the United States, as the formal dedication of St. Louis Guanella Village and the Grand Opening of four new Children's Homes for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) took place on the grounds of St. Louis Center in Chelsea, MI on Tuesday, June 12, 2018. Now, 58 years after arriving in the U.S. from Italy, the Servants of Charity Congregation is providing a continuum of care for children as young as five, and adults as old as 77 years of age who need assisted living services. St. Louis Center will also be serving girls aged 5-18 years of age for the first time in its history as one of the Children's Homes is meant for their care. Each home has five bedrooms, a kitchen, a modern dining room, living room, sensory/play room, laundry room, and caregiver work areas. The homes were specially designed for the needs of children on the autism spectrum, and feature soft, natural color palates, full spectrum LED lighting in each room and plenty of natural lighting.
The concept being developed for St. Louis Guanella Village is known as an "intentional community," where mixed housing will be provided for children, adults, and families who are caring for loved ones with I/DD. Along with future plans for family homes, there will also be additional cottage homes built for adult residents with I/DD who require support services, townhouses for independent living, a fitness center, a chapel, a rectory and a retail center for skill building and job training.
In 2010, St. Louis Center celebrated its 50th Anniversary and began an analysis of what was needed to safeguard its future. The Center's aging facilities needed to be "updated, uplifted and upgraded," and so a capital campaign was born. Over the course of seven years, a total of $10 million was raised with the support of a 25-member fundraising team. New construction began in 2010-11, and a Family Welcome Center was dedicated in 2011, a Special Needs Playground was added in 2012, and Fr. Guanella Hall was turned into an Assisted Living home in 2014.
The Grand Opening Celebration drew 300 people to a 4:00 p.m. Mass celebrated by Very Rev. Bishop Emeritus Carl F. Mengeling of the Diocese of Lansing along with ten priests from the Servants of Charity Congregation and the local community. Following Mass, a procession of supporters was led to the new St. Louis Guanella Village by a local Knights of Columbus color corps. Soon the crowd swelled to over 400 people to hear words of welcome from Fr. Enzo Addari, Executive Director of St. Louis Center, along with a history lesson about St. Louis Center from Fr. Joseph Rinaldo, SdC., Community Superior. Fr. David Stawasz unveiled the new St. Louis Guanella Village logo, and Legacy Campaign Chair Norman Neuman thanked all of the people who helped bring the vision of the St. Louis Guanella Village together. A tribute was received from the Michigan Legislature, and several important funders, including the Michigan Knights of Columbus represented by State Deputy Kenneth Unterbrink, were acknowledged. Christine Lindemann, the sister and guardian of one resident, told her family's story and talked about how meaningful this accomplishment was for SLC families. Bishop Mengeling and Fr. Addari cut the ribbon to officially open the Children's Homes, and then food and entertainment commenced, in spite of the rains that came pouring down shortly after the ribbon cutting. While Bishop Mengeling blessed each home with Holy Water, God did His part from up above.

I went searching for an article to post on "why hire a personal concierge", and quickly realized there are numerous articles, nearly all citing reasons such as "peace of mind" and "saving money". Although these are true, I'd like to approach why you should consider hiring a concierge from a slightly different point of view.

It's Valentine's Week! The Week of Love….
Many people complain that Valentine's Day is a holiday generated by the card companies. If a cynic can get past that, our hope is that they will be reminded that the spirit of Valentine's Day is love, and if there's one thing the world can always do with more of, it is love.

Q: Is there anything I should do before attending the Currell Effect?
A: The session will be quite a powerful experience. Therefore, one can attend one session a day. Please take other sessions on a different day. Below is our recommended preparation before the session.
・Please get enough sleep and rest the night before the session.
・Please refrain from drinking alcohol the day before the session.
・Please refrain from taking drugs; such as pain killers, on the day of the session.
・Please eat light meals before the session.
・Make sure you are relaxed and mentally and physically healthy with no stress.
・Please avoid driving immediately after the session.
Q: Why the check sheet?
A: For CE to be effective in elevating consciousness, the participant needs to be in both mentally and physically in good shape. CE is NOT a healing methodology per se, it is designed to resonate you with the universe. CE is NOT music, it is sound vibrations designed to create harmonic resonance of the quantum potential.
If a person needs spiritual, mental of physical healing, that is the prerequisite for doing CE. If a person is on drugs, or medication, has depression, or anything else that prevents him from being stable both physically and mentally, they are not yet ready to do CE. The most important steps toward doing CE are to get the person's problems handled first. If a person does CE and has any of these problems, the person could have a negative physical or mental experience. Although there is nothing unnatural about the CE process and there is no permanent damage that can be done, the participant can still experience a temporary discomfort. It is not my intention to give a person a perceived negative effect.
Q: I fell asleep during the session. Does this mean that I did not experience the Currell Effect?
A: Rest assured, you did not miss anything!
The vibration of consciousness shifts very fast, but the vibration of the physical body is very dense and cannot keep up with the speed of the shift. The mind sometimes cannot understand the experience or the CE experience does not filter down into the conscious mind right away.
Everyone experiences vibrational shifts differently. Sometimes people have reported feeling tingling sensations running through the body, feeling heat or cold, etc. Even if the body shuts down and the mind falls asleep, consciousness is still experiencing the Currell Effect. Therefore, the effect of the session can continue long after the session has finished. If a person encounters a vibrational pattern in their everyday life that was similar to a vibrational pattern experienced during the Currell Effect session, a resonance can occur and the person may recall something or may experience something they were not aware of during the CE session.
When this happens, please do not use your mind and try to think or analyze. Instead, just feel and observe. Unexpected doors may open!
Note: See "More data about falling asleep in a CE session" below for more information on falling asleep during the session and floating and drifting feeling after the session.
Q: After experiencing the Currell Effect, I felt like I was floating and drifting, and I felt slight dizziness and nausea when I returned home. Why did I experience this?
A: This most always is a positive reaction, so please do not be concerned.
Simply put, when one goes through a vibrational shift of consciousness, the physical body takes time to keep up with the shift because the body is dense. How each person feels the shift from one vibrational pattern to another varies, but it is normal for people to occasionally feel disoriented when this kind of shift occurs. The symptom is similar to slight motion sickness but you will gradually get used to the new vibration and those physical effects will go away.
When a person experiences getting tired, sleepy, foggy while studying, listening to a lecture or music, a CE session or even in just two way communication, this phenomenon would be technically called "going anaten".
Anaten is the abbreviation for the technical term, "analytical attenuation" meaning diminution or weakening of the analytical awareness of an individual for a brief or extensive period of time. If sufficiently great, it can result in unconsciousness.
A more succinct name "Dope-Off could also be used. Dope-off is the phenomenon of a person getting tired, sleepy, foggy (as though doped). It is also one of the phenomena of going past a misunderstood word. It is a state of lessened awareness, still above unconsciousness, and is manifested principally by communication lag.
Dope-off (anaten) is also caused by impaired havingness.
Havingness, is the feeling that one owns or possesses. Havingness is the ability to duplicate that which one perceives, or create a duplication of what one perceives, or to be willing to create a duplication of it. But it's duplication. A person's reality is also duplication.
The main point concerned with Dope-Off and Anaten is that when a person fails to duplicate (reality), there is a drop in the person's understanding and subsequently, this can cause a loss of havingness which then creates the mental phenomenon of getting tired, sleepy, foggy (as though doped).
Basically, finding the mis-understood (reality/duplication) will increase a person's havingness.
Going Anaten or Dope-Off should be avoided. Understanding the above data will help eliminate this problem when they notice themselves experiencing it's mental effects (getting tired, sleepy, foggy, falling asleep etc.).
Q: I felt physical pain during the session which went away when the session finished. Why did I feel the pain?
A: The Currell Effect session brings the participants' consciousness to the present moment. For instance, one person may be straining his/her body due to overwork or stress, but if the mind is too busy working and ignoring the physical body too long, one could get used to that condition. However, during the Currell Effect, one becomes aware of the pain and the stress because consciousness is focused to the moment of now. It will be wonderful if such experiences could help the participants become aware of what is going on in their lives and review their lifestyles.
Q: I could not see any images during the session, but was I still experiencing the Currell Effect?
A: Just like we are all different, each person's experience of the Currell Effect is unique and different. Therefore, not everybody sees images. This does not mean that people who have visual experiences are superior than those who do not have such experiences. Some people have developed other sensitivities than visuals. Just feeling, sensing or hearing things are also very important experiences. However, if you try to analyze such experiences with mind, you end up creating a barrier between yourself and the experience. Therefore, instead of being caught up with thoughts in your mind, please try to feel the vibration from the heart and explore!
We have posted all the feedback on the CE website (currently in Japanese only).
Q: Why do I have to wear headphones and an eye mask?
A: The speakers were not the answer. It was very difficult to control the sound field that was presented to the participant's ears. This was due to the various listening positions and the acoustics of the environment. Important aspects of the audio are lost when listening on speakers. This is caused mainly by two things:The solution would be to use headphones (For technical information, please read "Currell Effect - Harmonic Resonance Of The Quantum Potential" by Christopher Currell, Chapter 5).
The headphone is comfortable and should not cause any discomfort to the participant during the one hour session.
The Currell Effect requires the participant to wear a headphone and eye mask.
Also the participant is required to wear an eye mask. The purpose of the eye mask is to shut down visual information. Visual information (the environment around the participant) and the audio will be very different and there is no synchronicity between the two perceptions as in real life. In fact there is potentially a conflict between the two perceptions in a CE session. This conflict can cause confusion in the brain. Since CE is an audio driven experience, we want to optimize the audio perception by shutting down the participants visual perception. We do this using the eye mask. Shutting the eyes for an hour creates physical stress and becomes a distraction and is not an optimum solution.
If the CE session room is totally dark, an eye mask would not be needed but to date, finding such a room has not been successful or practical so the eye mask is an elegant solution.
The eye mask Transformation Tools uses for the CE session is very comfortable and it allows for the participant to open their eyes if they wish.
If you have an issue with using a headphone or eye mask, please contact the Transformation Tools staff or your CEP before signing up for a session.
Q: Is the sound quality of the Currell Effect CD the same when I import to the iTunes to listen on my iPod or iPhone?
A: The sound quality changes greatly depending on which file format you choose to import the CDs into iTunes. The default setting for the iTunes is a compressed file format; therefore, you will lose a large amount of effect if you import without choosing the correct uncompressed format.
The Currell Effect CD contains more information than a regular audio CD. In the compressed format, data will be removed and reduced to 1/10, and as a result, the experience will be reduced. Therefore, please chose the non-compressed WAV format in the iTunes Import Settings. The file size is about 10 times larger than the compressed format, but the quality of the WAV format is the same as the regular audio CD. When you listen to the Currell Effect, please listen directly from the CD or import in the non-compressed WAV format.
Please see below for how to change the import setting.

Another New Technology Promises End For Staples And Stitches
We spotted a piece in Jewish Business News covering the tale of an Israeli firm which has developed a method of 'welding' together surgical wounds.
According to the article, Mothers-to-be undergoing caesarean sections could be among the first to benefit, with treatments carried out as soon as this year. It will also be suitable for burns victims and cosmetic surgery patients.
People have tried welding, gluing, stapling, taping, you name it, but the good old suture is still here. Today's subcutaneously inserted, absorbable sutures are a far cry from the old piece of silk. However the principle that stitching two wound edges together makes for the best, most adaptable and successful means of closure, still holds true for many procedures. It must do, otherwise the suture market would be succumbing even faster than the creeping death brought about about by the move to minimally invasive surgery.
So, no more staples, stitches or unsightly scars- so says the article– and it's all thanks to IonMed's innovative BioWeld1 "cold plasma" technology. The article, which can be found here, likens the device to being a "medical version of a welding torch" and, according to the company, it takes just three or four minutes to seal a wound and with minimal scarring.
So how does it work? Well, the technique involves welding a thin film of specially-designed natural sugar-based "plasma" over the wound, and closing it with tool operating at 40 degrees celsius. The Plasma is channelled through a pen-like device to close wounds smoothly and safely on the human body. The image (above) tells the tale really, the upper incision showing closure with metal staples after seven days, the lower being the result of closure with IonMed's welding technique.
The company has so far had three successful clinical trials to test its new product. In the most recent trial, BioWeld1 was used to close the skin incisions of 16 women who underwent Caesarean sections. The company reported that several weeks later the wounds had all properly healed with the likelihood of complications such as infection were very low.
Our questions though, are the same as we direct at all such skin-closure technologies. Wound closure is a layered affair with skin being the last layer. This technology clearly only works on the skin layer, so we're expecting someone to suture the underlying layers first and then turn to this equipment for the skin? And then there's the cost. The capital equipment is projected to cost $3750 with the per case cost of plasma kit being $15 to $22. Is anyone going to fire up the welder when a ten buck stapler could have the job done in ten seconds?
Don't get us wrong, we like it. But these are the harsh commercial realities the company is going to have to deal with, which is no doubt why it's pitched itself at caesarians where the cosmetic result might swing things its way.
Regulatory status
The company anticipates receiving the CE mark of approval in Europe for their technology by the end of the year. After closing its next financial round, IonMed will begin a round of trials in Europe and the United States in order to receive approval from the US FDA and then go on to launch its next cold plasma-based product.

The natural moving objects are the most non-rigid shapes with randomly time-varying deformation, and its types also very diverse. Methods of non-rigid shape reconstruction have widely applied in field of movie or game industry in recent years. However, a realistic approach requires moving object to stick many beacon sets. To resolve this drawback, non-rigid shape reconstruction researches from input video without beacon sets are investigated in multimedia application fields. In this regard, our paper propose novel CPSRF(Chained Partial Stereo Rigid Factorization) algorithm that can reconstruct a non-rigid 3D shape. Our method is focused on the real-time reconstruction of non-rigid 3D shape and motion from stereo 2D video sequences per frame. And we do not constrain that the deformation of the time-varying non-rigid shape is limited by a Gaussian distribution. The experimental results show that the 3D reconstruction performance of the proposed CPSRF method is superior to that of the previous method which does not consider the random deformation of shape.

Q: Powershell - replace text after wildcard, with nothing? I am using a Powershell command in a Windows batch file to search for a text string like this: foo=1
(where 1 could be anything)
I know .*? works as a wildcard in Powershell. The below snippet isn't the full command, I have only put the relevant part.
I am trying to replace the whole line foo=1 with nothing, using the Powershell wildcard .*? for the 1 like this:
-replace 'foo=.*?', ''

The problem is, instead of being left with a blank line, I am still left with the trailing =1
I don't know why the wildcard is not being replaced with nothing as per the command in the code box above.
Thanks in advance to any answers that shed some light on it.

A: .?* is not "a wildcard" in PowerShell.
The -Replace operator in PowerShell doesn't use wildcard matching, it uses regular expressions.
In regular expressions, . will match any single character except a line break. ? and *, as well as + are quantifiers used in conjuction with . or other, more specific, matching characters. So that:

*

*'.?' matches none or one character

*'.*' matches zero or more characters

*'.+' matches one or more characters

Wildcards in PowerShell are used by the -Like and -notLIke operators, as well as being used to easily specify multiple paths. In additon to the * and ? familiar to most, brackets ( [ & ] ) can be used to define a character range or enumeration. This is why paths with bracket characters in the name require the use of the -LiteralPath parameter.
So, for your question/example, you need a simple regular expression. But "1 could be anything" leaves several options:

*

*Always a single character

*

*-replace 'foo=.'

*One or more characters up to the end of the string.

*

*-replace 'foo=.+$'

*One or more characters until space (or other known delimiter)

*

*-replace 'foo=.+\ '   # space

*-replace 'foo=.+,'    # comma

A: I kept fiddling and worked it out:
-replace 'foo=.*?.*', ''

Adding the extra .* after the original wildcard made it work.
OK now I have hours and hours of work to do ;)

Classics of Latin music: "Ojalá Que Llueva Café" by Juan Luis Guerra and 4-40
Eduardo Frajman
The Dominican singer and composer Juan Luis Guerra and his band 4-40 (pronounced "cuatro-cuarenta," that is "four-forty") played a leading role in the Latin music renaissance of the 1990s. Before 1989, kids across the region listened to pop and rock in English and Spanish, or to regional genres, which rarely made it down to clearly defined geographic areas. Great music was being made everywhere, but no act from Mexico or South America could compete with American artists of Latin descent, such as Gloria Estefan, Selena Quintanilla-Pérez, and Jon Secada, who were putting down roots in the mainstream north and south of the Rio Grande.
The 1989 release of "Ojalá Que Llueva Café" ("May It Rain Coffee"), the lead single from the eponymous album by Guerra and 4-40, changed all that. I was there, I was 13 years old when the single was released and can tell you firsthand that we, the listening audience, not only fell in love with it but immediately recognized that it was something fresh and new and different. This may seem strange to a new listener now. "Ojalá Que Llueva Café" presents itself as sweet, unpretentious, harmless. But it wasn't in its time and in some ways it still isn't.
Surely Guerra knew he had something big as he was recording. But I can't imagine he foresaw how this one song would be the first step on his quick rise to megastar status. After graduating from Berklee College of Music in Boston, Guerra returned to the Dominican Republic and, together with Maridalia Hernández, Mariela Mercado, and Roger Zayas-Bazán formed 4-40 in 1984. The band released three albums by 1987, all of which were well received and earned them a modest following in their native land (some tracks from those albums, such as the merengues "Guavaberry" and "Me Enamoro de Ella," became hits years later, after the band's popularity had exploded).
In 1988, while on tour in Venezuela, the band was involved in a lethal car crash that led to the death of trumpet player Ángel Miró Andujar, knows as "Catarey." Guerra told his biographer decades later that he was shaken by the death of his friend and considered quitting the band. His malaise was intensified when a founding member, singer Maridalia Hernández, left the group. Incredibly, out of this funk emerged "Ojalá Que Llueva Café" and a whole new musical personality.
Part of the change came with a newly adventurous approach to traditional rhythms. "Ojalá Que Llueva Café" was a new kind of merengue: much slower than the genre usually allows, it incorporated new instruments and a pop sensibility, including a children's chorus towards the end that today sounds mawkish and overdone. But the key innovation was putting Guerra's sweet, high voice at the forefront of the composition. The music is great no doubt, but there's no denying that the key to 4-40's success was Guerra's beguiling, manifold voice.
In "Ojalá Que Llueva Café" the vocals are particularly rich with melancholy. "May it rain coffee on the field," it begins, "may it pour yucca and tea." The song speaks of hope, a hymn sung by the hard-living laborers of the land. It speaks of the beauty of the simple pleasures, of the simple life – – "to come down the hills of rice/ and continue the tilling with your love" – – just as, between the lines, it speaks of poverty and deprivation, of the precariousness of peasant life. It's at once joyous and sad, it makes you want to dance and it makes you want to cry. There's something timeless, almost holy about it.
The album "Ojalá Que Llueva Café" was a hit. Besides its namesake song, it unleashed onto the world the exuberant bilingual salsa "Woman del Callao" and the unforgettable dance numbers like "De Tu Boca" ("From Your Mouth"). These then paved the way for the global phenomenon that was "Bachata Rosa," the follow-up album by Juan Luis Guerra and 4-40, and everything that followed.

CMU Chippewa pride at work
Alumna gives back through mentoring and recruitment
11/25/2016 | Updated: 6/7/2017 6:29 AM
Reprinted from Exchange Fall 2016
Natalie Lampas is a mentor at heart. The 2003 alumna built on her experiences at Central to achieve success in her career. Along the way, she brought College of Business Administration students and career programming with her.
Lampas began her CMU journey in 1999 while visiting her sister on campus. This offered her a glimpse of the opportunities available at Central.
"It was the culture and the people who drew me to CMU when I visited. It felt like a home away from home," said Lampas.
Once a student, she got involved with Alpha Kappa Psi, which she credits with much of her early business skills such as networking and mentoring. This put her on a learning path in information systems and business.
It was through the Alpha Kappa Psi Career Fair that Lampas would meet representatives from the company where she would find her first job. She began working in product support at what is now known as Thomson Reuters. From day one, her tenacity and work ethic led Lampas to volunteer for a variety of projects as a way to get to know the company better and excel in her own role.
Lampas learned about various departments and how they worked together. The partnerships she forged across the company helped her advance and led to partnerships that would forever change the way Thomson Reuters approached recruiting.
Creating a talent pipeline
Rick Kursik, vice president of sales for Thomson Reuters, mentored Natalie, offering her the chance to recruit. Natalie soon realized that recruitment was simply a different type of sales — one that would allow her to continue helping the next generation find career success of their own.
In 2008, Thomson Reuters was busy formalizing a new sales internship.
Lampas was able to build recruiting from the ground up starting with two schools, including CMU. At the same time, the university's professional sales program was taking off.
"I thought back to my time at CMU and remembered how amazing it was to have guest speakers who could link lessons to the challenges or opportunities they were facing that day," Lampas said. She used this insight to build a partnership that would bene t students and Thomson Reuters. When recruiting, Lampas also spends time talking with students one-on-one about personal branding and works with CBA faculty, students and student organizations — such as Pi Sigma Epsilon to train mock interviewers.
Today, Central is one of Thomson Reuters' most recruited schools.
"Because Thomson Reuters is engaged in CMU's classrooms and student organizations, we are able
to get to know students and have them get to know us before they ever apply for a job," Lampas said.
"I couldn't be more proud to be a CMU Chippewa," she said. "We've had incredible experiences hiring interns and staff from CMU. Those are stories I share with others because I want students to be able to find a place that is the right fit for them."
Thinking globally
Lampas is continuing to move forward. In addition to recruiting for sales, she is working to build relationships and recruit at select schools for sales, business and technology positions.
As manager of academic relations and programs she works with counterparts across the business to link students to their career passions. She also is working to expand the relationship between the university and Thomson Reuters by deepening the company's engagement on campus and finding new avenues to reach students across majors.
For Lampas, seeing the success of those she has recruited and mentored is one of the most rewarding parts of her job.
"To see an intern or staff have a great experience or watch them grow as a professional — that is an incredible feeling," she said.

The Cause of the Civil War: Eli Whitney's Cotton Gin
During the period between 1790 and 1850, the United States was rapidly changing. It was now a separate country with its own economy, laws, and government. The country was learning to live on its own, apart from England. There began to appear a rift between North and South. The North believing in the Puritan Merchant role model, and the South in the role model of the English Country Squire. The North traded with everyone, while the South traded primarily with England. The major crop in the South was tobacco, and because of the decline in the price of tobacco the slave trade was dying, just as those in the North hoped it would. Then came a man, and an invention, which changed the course of history. In 1792, Eli Whitney visited the …show more content…
This division between morality ultimately led to another ripple in the pond caused by Whitney's cotton gin. This division led to the separation of the churches. Protestant churches began to divide of the issue of slavery, each taking a side, free or slave. The churches that felt slaves should be free existed primarily in the North, and the Southern counterparts held no different view of theology, but instead divided over a moral issue. This furthered deepened the rift between North and South because now their was less of a bond between them. Not even religion held together the North and South and the conflict only escalated because of the lack of communication between both sides. Eli Whitney's invention of the cotton gin had started a revolution that divided the country, socially economically, politically, and now spiritually.	The next event to divide the nation was the annexation of Texas. Texas was settled as a Mexican territory opened to U.S. settlers in the hope that they would come to Mexico and become a part of the country. This planned failed as U.S. settlers immigrated to Mexico bringing their slaves and forming plantations, but always looking to become a part of the U.S. again. Eventually the Mexican government realized what the Texans were planning and shut down the border. Troops were brought in to enforce the order but the
"Slavery Was the Dominating Reality in Southern Life." Assess the Validity of This Generalization for Two of the Following Aspects of Southern Life from About 1840-1860: Political, Social, Economic, and Intellectual Life.
Between the time period of 1840 and 1860, slavery played an influential and pivotal role in the development of a new southern lifestyle. In the struggle for dominance in America, slavery was the South's stronghold and the underlying cause in much of their motives for many of the economic instigations along with the affirmative political actions. By dominating the everyday southerner's life, slavery also dominated the economic and political aspects of life during the height of the slavery period.….

Behind the scenes on the last days of Ripper Street
Ripper Street tart turned RadioTimes.com reporter Sarah Doran heads back to Dublin to wave goodbye to Whitechapel with the cast and crew
Wednesday, 12th October 2016 at 12:05 pm
I have history with Ripper Street, BBC1-turned-Amazon Prime's crime thriller.
The last time I set foot on set, I was working as an extra during my student days. I was cast as a street tart – not sure exactly what that says about me back then.
So when I walk bleary-eyed into the Dublin hotel base for the show's fifth and final series filming at 6.45am on a mild April morning, the last thing I'm expecting the wardrobe assistant to say is, "I think we'll make you posh!".
Tamsin's face is a familiar one; she's helped me into more than one corset on this particular production. I'm not in the least bit surprised to see her, because the Irish crew who keep "Ripper" – as they refer to it – rolling have become a tight-knit team over the past five years. Series after series, they enthusiastically come back for more.
"It's like a family," hairdresser Maureen tells me as she pops hot curlers into my bedhead just after 7am. She's worked on many productions during her 17 and a half years hairdressing, and been with Ripper Street since the beginning.
"I love doing the 'up' styles" she says. "And the hats, I just love the hats."
Maureen twists my curls into an elaborate up-do, douses them in hairspray from a can that's so big "it's like a fire extinguisher", and secures a snazzy feathery creation to the top of the pile before I can even touch my tea.
You have to work fast in this business, especially on big days like these.
It's the second-last day of filming on Ripper Street's final series and there are 78 extras to clothe, feed and shuttle to set in time for a pivotal scene.
Extras Coordinator Sarah Beth Moylan is keeping watch over her charges, many of whom are now sporting an assortment of hats and bonnets, fake facial hair, and perfectly filthy fingernails.
"Are you OK there, pet?" she asks an older gentleman who's taking a moment's rest. "Can I get you anything before you head down on the bus to set?"
Moylan is well liked among the extras who've come back series after series. From retired professionals to students making cash in their spare time, she's seen all sorts pass through. There has been the odd fame hunter with "notions", she admits, but the majority "just put the head down and get on with it".
For Moylan the end of Ripper really is the end of an era. She's played mother hen to more background actors than she can count, with a master list of about 400 extras to work with each series.
"People don't realise how much time it takes to create something that's only on screen for a second," she says, but she's not complaining. She's loved working on Ripper Street and is delighted to be able to finish the story on their own terms.
This isn't the first time the Ripper crew have dealt with 'The End'. In 2013 Ripper Street was dropped by the BBC, but a fan campaign – backed by RadioTimes.com – succeeded in convincing Amazon to snap the show up for three more series.
"I don't think anyone realised how big it would be," Moylan muses as she brushes some stray hairs from the shoulder of a policeman's uniform. "You don't realise how many people are watching it online. It's nice to know that the people really did care."
After mere moments in the make-up chair (thankfully posh extras require less work than the painted-on STI-sporting street tarts) we head downstairs for breakfast. A few confused looks from hotel patrons, a bowl of cereal and cup of tea later, we're escorted on to a bus that's heading for a city centre location.
By 9.20am we're greeted at an old court house down one of Dublin's many twisting side streets, and I'm really feeling that cereal in my slightly tight corset.
"Quite please. QUIET!". It's Mike Hayes, the man all extras know to behave around. The no-nonsense Third Assistant Director understands what it takes to keep filming on track, and he's not afraid to send mischief makers, incessant talkers or fame hungry scene stealers to the naughty step.
As we huddle outside the old stone building (doubling for Shoreditch Town Hall), animal print fleece blankets and cups of tea are passed around by playful crew who crack jokes. This may be the second-last day of their long residence in Dublin, but there's no funeral atmosphere. There's a real sense of happiness because this ending is on their terms.
They're telling the last chapter of a story they've been the custodians of for the last five years, and they're doing it their way.
"OK, you're a journalist," Hayes tells me.
"Yes, I'm here with the production team. I'm from Radio Times", I reply.
"No, I mean you're playing a journalist," he answers, handing me a little black notebook, ushering me through the doors of the building and into a seat on a bench behind another familiar face – David Dawson's Fred Best.
By 10am the Third AD has put everyone firmly in their place – both physically and mentally – and it's time to start rehearsing the scene while creating atmosphere. This involves two men with a smoke machine filling the room with white mist, while everyone with a free hand grabs a paddle to make sure it blows in the right direction.
There's a universal groan when it rises a little too high and sets off the smoke alarm. "Can we figure out how to get that turned off please?" someone roars, and several people in crew t-shirts scurry out the door.
Leading man Matthew Macfadyen watches on from the sidelines, occasionally breaking out of that trademark brooding Edmund Reid stare to laugh with the make-up and costume teams as they fiddle with his shirt buttons and add an extra layer of powder.
From time to time he pulls a smartphone from his breast pocket. His wife, Keeley Hawes, had returned to Line of Duty just the night before, and I can't help but wonder if he's enjoying the universal praise for her performance online.
"Are you playing a journalist too?" an oblivious extra asks Macfadyen. He could take the moment to pull a full on diva strop, but he merely smiles. "No, I'm playing a policeman", he says, before taking his place for the first of many takes.
Two and a half hours of serious 19th century 'journalist-ing' (looking shocked and scribbling furiously) in the background later, a passing ambulance siren, aircraft noise and various other 21st century obstacles have slightly hampered progress.
There's little chance we'll be finishing within the hour, so the crew decide it's time to break for lunch.
It's not a moment too soon as I'm absolutely famished and feeling a tad faint thanks to the corset that's now cutting into my hips. I'm used to doing the day job in jeans, and don't envy my predecessors the task of covering events of the day encased in belly crushing bone.
Lunch is served on double-decker buses in a base not far from the set and there's plenty of chatter about the upcoming glamorous Ripper Street wrap party among the extras.
"We're having a separate one," an older man clothed in a simple brown jacket and cap tells me. "We've all been doing Ripper since the start, so we want to give it a good send off."
There's just enough time to nip into the wardrobe van to have my corset loosened. It's an Aladdin's cave of costumes, many of which I recognise from previous series. From Long Susan's elegant gowns to Rose's slightly raggedy dresses, Jackson's slick suits to Reid's respectable crisp collars, the van holds as many memories as cloth creations.
There's little time to snoop, though, as we're due back on set, and there's just enough room on the bus for a skirt as big as mine. By the time we resume our positions on the benches, and the actors take us through the same scene again, I feel as though I could recite everyone's lines word for word.
But this team are seasoned professionals with a tight schedule to stick to, so before I know it we're done and everyone's back on the bus to the hotel. Hairdresser Maureen returns my hair to its original state, and Tamsin frees me from my corset prison in the blink of an eye.
The afternoon's extras are already reporting for duty to Sarah Beth, who's ready to fill the bus up and take them to a new location. There are cheerful hellos and tearful goodbyes, as some extras hug the wardrobe assistants while hanging up their caps and corsets for the last time.
They're not sad goodbyes, though. They're proud ones.
Four years, five series, several hundred extras and one cancellation later, H Division has found a way to make its own happily ever after.

So what happens after all this reading and thinking about Gaia? If we take seriously the insight that the Earth works as a grand organic whole and that we form an inseparable part of Gaia, what happens next? Is the world different after making this conceptual leap?
There is a sense in which we could be talking from the same standpoint having just broadened the horizon. A great big cybernetic network of interrelated and complex wholes could be cast as just another way of viewing our external reality while we essentially remain the same.
There might be another crossroads to pass and it might be even more difficult to face because it is asking us to take a step into unknown territory and question our notion of reality. If you have followed me down this road you might want to peep at Clive Hamilton's critique of Gaia in his lecture on The Rebirth of Nature and the Climate Crisis.
You can find the lecture here.
No-brainer, that's a left brainer, right?

Funding News: Slice, CureFit, BOX8, among others raised $535 million in funding this week
Balraj· December 6, 2021

After a blazing funding round in November that attracted $1.8 billion in investment spanning 38 transactions, December has started on a tepid note so far. In the first week of December, startup funding dropped dramatically. This week, between November 29 and December 5, the Indian startup ecosystem raised $535 million through 49 transactions.
This represents a 70 percent decrease from the previous week when the ecosystem attracted over $1.8 billion in investment across 38 transactions. However, this week's investment is 33 percent higher than the previous week, when the ecosystem attracted $400 million across 26 transactions.

Home Locations DC An Interview with Pleasure Train's Will Berger
An Interview with Pleasure Train's Will Berger
Marlene Hall
Through an email interview with DC based Pleasure Train's bassist Will Berger, we talked about the band's favorite venue to play in, their musical journey highlight so far, and how they write their music.
Valerie Vega (vocals), Ian Dandridge (guitar), Richard Fiegel (guitar), Mike Paquette (keyboards), Will Berger (bass), and Andrew Gabor (drums). Photo courtesy of their facebook page.
How did your band get its name?
Early in the life of the band, some of us were sitting around drinking beer and trying to come up with a good band name. Our keyboardist, Mike, offered up "Pleasure Train" almost as a joke, and it just stuck. It took some of the other band members a while to come around, but eventually we all realized it's a really awesome band name. It's evocative, provocative, and memorable–and it does a pretty good job of distilling our band's vibe and general approach to music and life! Also, if we ever find ourselves embattled in legal issues and unable to use our band name anymore, we can always change it to Treasure Plane.
How did your band form?
The band formed after longtime friends and guitarists Ian Dandridge and Richard Fiegel had a conversation about the future of music and what genres would define our generation. After a long discussion of personal influences which ranged from 70's giants such as Led Zeppelin and the Grateful Dead to modern acts including Tame Impala and Deadmau5, the two began envisioning the style of music they wanted to see develop in the future, and began the search for like-minded musicians. Keyboardist Mike Paquette was recruited first, bringing wide-ranging influences to the table including jazz and electronica. Vocalist Valerie Vega was connected with the band seemingly by chance, after her rich, soulful voice caught the attention of Fiegel while he was browsing YouTube videos of local singers. The lineup was completed when drummer Andrew Gabor and bassist Will Berger came on board, rounding out the band with an upbeat funk and R&B-influenced rhythm section.
The Pleasure Train Band:
Valerie Vega – Vocals
Ian Dandridge – Guitar
Rich Fiegel – Guitar
Mike Paquette – Keys
Will Berger – Bass
Andrew Gabor – Drums
How would you describe your music?
Our music incorporates a fusion of influences including groove, alternative, jam, jazz, pop, soul, and house. We don't actively try to make music in any particular genre. What ends up coming out of the speakers is a mix of rock, funk, and soul, with a heavy dose of psychedelic and a touch of deep house. Our music has also been described as "sex groove" due to its undeniably sexual nature–it can't be explained, you have to come to a show and find out for yourself!
What is your favorite venue to play in the DC area?
That's a tough one, because we're constantly discovering new great places to play. Iota Club & Cafe in Arlington is always a fun time for us–the crowd there tends to be people who come intending to listen to music, and to get down, which we appreciate. Playing the Sylvan Theatre on the National Mall was fun, except for the fact that it was freezing and our guitarist almost lost several fingers! The corner of 14th and Madison NW in the pouring rain, that was a fun one too.
What do you listen to?
A better question would be what don't we listen to? We all have varied but overlapping musical tastes, and you can find us at shows and music festivals all over the place. Some of us love jam bands, some of us love raves and electronic music, some of us love blues and Americana, some of us love indie rock and shoegaze…it goes on and on and on. All of us have a healthy love and respect for the classic artists that defined the 60s and 7os–the Beatles, the Dead, Zeppelin, the Allman Brothers, and so on.
What inspires your music?
Every member of this band has their own individual brand of creativity, and we would all likely be making music regardless of whether we had ever crossed paths with each other. The thing that inspires us to keep making music as Pleasure Train is the unique energy that is created when the six of us get in a room together and make sounds. For many in the band, playing together is the single thing that inspires us the most. Our collaborative songwriting process means we each get to watch our own little ideas and contributions snowball into something we could have never even imagined on our own. It's far out, man.
It usually starts with an instrumental jam of some sort–it could be the full band or it could just be something that two or three of us came up with during a late night jam session. The band will work out a song structure and Valerie will listen, sometimes writing her lyrics while the band jams, other times using lyrics she has written beforehand. Some songs materialize pretty quickly, others take a lot of work, sanding the rough edges and whatnot, before we are happy with them. Many of our songs are in a state of slow evolution, where playing them live has made us learn that they need more or less of a certain thing. We are all very openly critical of our music amongst ourselves (in a constructive way) which means we end up doing a lot of tinkering.
What are some of the highlights of your band's musical career?
Oh boy. We feel like we're still just getting started! If we do this thing right, the highlights are all going to be in the future. One of our favorite shows so far has been when we got to open for Aqueous at the Bungalow in Chantilly. Those guys are just incredible musicians and performers and they're blowing up all up and down the East coast, so it was exciting for us to have the chance to play with them.
What are your plans for the band?
To scratch the musical itch with each other and spread love, joy, and a good time to others while doing it. To travel far & wide and bring our music to all corners of the seven continents. To keep having a blast writing and playing music together.
How do you let other people know about your music?
You can listen to our music on our website (not working now). We also stay active on our Facebook page and instagram @pleasuretrainmusic.
What is your upcoming schedule?
We are playing at the Auld Shebeen in Fairfax on Friday 6/21, with local bands We've decided it is time to take a short break from performances to focus on recording our partially completed album. We'll be dropping a single from the album later in the summer and are very excited to show the evolution in our sound (our first record, a 5 song EP, was recorded back in November 2014). In the more distant future, we are excited to be on the bill for Not Fade Away Festival, September 1-5 in Aldie, VA.

Bucs Sign Darian Stewart to Address Safety Shortage
Senior Writer/Editor

There may be safety in numbers, but the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have recently been lacking numbers at safety.
On Tuesday, the Buccaneers signed veteran safety Darian Stewart to address a position that has been hit by a run of injuries. A former Pro Bowler and a starter on the 2015 Denver Broncos team that won Super Bowl 50, Stewart not only adds depth but a wealth of experience. Over nine NFL seasons he has played in 130 games with 91 starts, including 58 starts for the Broncos over the past four years.
To make room for Stewart on the 90-man camp roster, the Buccaneers waived rookie defensive lineman Dare Odeyingbo.
Tampa Bay has already placed two safeties, Orion Stewart and D'Cota Dixon, on injured reserve. Incumbent starter Justin Evans remains on the active/physically unable to perform list and has yet to practice in training camp. Rookie Mike Edwards, who had been running with the first-team defense and was a starter in last Friday's preseason opener, is currently out with a hamstring strain. Safety Kentrell Brice, a free agent pickup this past spring, _is_ practicing but he left Friday's game early with an ankle injury. The Bucs have also signed a pair of undrafted rookie safeties in the past week – Micah Abernathy and John Battle – but Stewart is obviously the more proven NFL player.
Stewart (5-11, 204) began his NFL career in 2010, signing with the St. Louis Rams as an undrafted free agent out of South Carolina. He made the team and appeared in 13 games as a reserve in his rookie campaign before moving into a starting role early in 2011. He opened 13 games that season and recorded a career-high 77 tackles along with 3.0 sacks, one interception and 11 passes defensed. Injuries limited Stewart over the next two seasons in St. Louis, and he signed with Baltimore as a free agent in March of 2014.
After one season as a starter for the Ravens, Stewart then signed with the Broncos, taking over at free safety and helping the team make a successful run through the playoffs, ending with the 24-10 win over Carolina in the Super Bowl. After starting those four aforementioned seasons in Baltimore, Stewart was released this past March.
Stewart's career totals include 439 tackles, 5.0 sacks, 16 quarterback hits, 11 interceptions, 45 passes defensed, six forced fumbles and seven fumble recoveries. He had 60 tackles and two interceptions in 14 games last season. Stewart, who made the Pro Bowl following the 2016 season, has also played in and started five postseason games, notching two interceptions and a sack.
Odeyingbo signed with the Buccaneers as an undrafted free agent out of Vanderbilt in May. He played in the Bucs' preseason opener in Pittsburgh but did not record any statistics.
Bucs Sign Eight to 2020 Futures Contracts

Movie Review: "Wrong Turn 2021" is a minor classic
Home Reviews
It seems "Wrong Turn" took a right turn
by Philip Matogo
in Reviews
If you've been watching the Wrong Turn movie series, you know the plotline is simple: it's about rednecks who love red meat in the form of human flesh.
Yes, we're talking West Virginian cannibals who look at human beings the same way you would look at chicken served with white rice matching Meghan Markel's actual skin tone.
This time around, however, things are slightly different.
Sure, there are a bunch of inbred hicks on the loose in woods where "nature eats everything it catches, right down to the bone".
And, yes. They are still unwashed and about as dateable as a missing calendar.
However the seventh installment of this classic slasher-horror series is a reboot which turns on the axle of political commentary.
Politics and Horror: aren't you repeating yourself, you ask.
No, not exactly. The two aren't the same if well-brought together; as they are in this movie.
Underlining such politics is a clash of civilizations between "god damn hipster freaks" and creepy backwoodsmen, no less.
It all starts when a diverse group of city slickers wander off the beaten path in search of a Civil War Fort in the Appalachian Mountains.
The city kids are led by Jen (Charlotte Vega) and her black boyfriend Darius (Adrian Bradley) who represents every liberal's wet dream with his yen and yearning for a "just" world.
Then there's app designer Adam (Dylan McTee), oncologist Milla (Emma Dumont), these two are dating. And then there's bistro owners Luis (Adrian Favela) and Gary (Vardaan Arora), who are the movie's token gay couple.
Together, these three couples represent the diversity and oneness Darius probably dreams of when he attends Bernie Sanders rallies or while he takes a protest dump in a "Make America Great Again" hat.
Anyway, as they look for the Civil War Fort, a tree trunk suddenly bursts out of nowhere and comes rolling down the hill like Donald Trump's anti-environmentalism is chasing it.
Sadly, it crashes it one of the gay guys and kills him just he's probably thinking about the next time he'll get to paint his nails in non-Confederate Flag colors.
The locals of a nearby small Virginia town had warned these kids not go into the woods, but who's going to listen to a bunch of rednecks that likely think Abe Lincoln is still US president?
This time the rednecks are right, however. Not about Abe Lincoln being president, but about the woods where you'd probably find his childhood log cabin.
Instead of Abe's boyhood lodgings though, the woods are where a cult known as The Foundation is found.
Thankfully, this cult is well out of reach of the fashion police (and is thus Omigod-free) as folks wearing animal skulls enjoy a civilization untouched by civilization since 1859.
The Foundation, which sounds as sinister as a Bill and Melinda Gates non-profit, sets deadly traps which provoke Adam into killing one of its members.
Then, as Adam defends his homicidal act, he accuses the hicks of being less than We-Are-The-World friendly.
"These are clearly not good people!" he laments, after crushing a forest dweller's skull.
After this, the whole group is captured by other members of The Foundation and shanghaied into a torch-lit cave where the cult ruler John (Bill Sage) subjects them to his brand of rough justice. As you might imagine, it is not a cup of warm milk.
Mercifully, it's not cannibalistic either.
It seems "Wrong Turn" took a right turn in not turning The Foundation into fleshing devouring maniacs who would mistake the expression "eat someone for breakfast" for a bon appétit.
This "hicksploitation" reboot clearly had higher aspirations by making its bones not as a bone-chilling horror, but as a liberal versus conservative narrative.
In spite of its unfortunate fashion sense, The Foundation is actually more progressive than it first appears.
It thereby replaces the shock value of Wrong Turn's previous installments with the curiosity value of where The Foundation is taking us with all its old-country ideals.
In screen tonality, Wrong Turn's mood palettes are hued by colors whose degree of richness, intensity and grayness are reduced to enhance its murky feeling of dread.
The dialogue is tone-deaf, and always seems like an 'uh oh' away from the characters announcing their own grisly ends.
The political dimension added to this genre film gives it depth, but not much direction. When you think The Foundation could be more, it offers less. Almost like a meal at KFC.
All told, it's a watchable film.
After all its inevitable death and gore, you will be surprised at who comes to the rescue.
No, it's not the Ghostbusters.

These boxes typically include big, easy-open doors to pass large packages in and out of the box; some include flexible diaphragms that permit the use of the gloves without changing the internal pressure in the box. Mail processing glove boxes are used to facilitate the manipulation of contaminated or potentially contaminated (e.g., with anthrax) mail; they may prevent the spread of contamination during the sorting and opening process by keeping the manipulation of mail sealed inside the glove box. These glove boxes are intended for use where mail is processed, including in healthcare facilities.
