The rise of Boris Johnson
Hair like a haystack, a background in light entertainment television and a long history of controversy. It's not the US President but Boris Johnson. This is his story.
A gaffe-prone politician somehow turning every disaster into triumph
His carefully dishevelled appearance, his remarkable ability to escape every disaster unscathed and his slapdash relationship with the truth make him Britain's Marmite politician. Whether you love or loathe Boris Johnson- you know who he is. This is his story. Widely disliked but wildly popular. A successful journalist, who made up the facts. A disheveled classicist with ruthless ambition. A gaffe-prone politician somehow turning every disaster into triumph. Boris Johnson → Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson is one of the UK's most recognizable politicians. Born in New York City on 19th June 1964, he attended private schools Ashdown House and Eton College. In 1983, he went up to Oxford to study Classics. He was a member of the elite Bullingdon drinking club alongside future Prime Minister David Cameron.
In Oxford, he met Allegra Mostyn-Owen, who he married in 1987. Boris lost his wedding ring an hour after the ceremony. After university, he was fired from his first job as a journalist at the Times for inventing a quote. Sent to report from Brussels for the Telegraph. He helped to feed a growing euroscepticism among Conservatives. With exaggerated reports about the EU banning bendy bananas and deputies raking in huge fortunes from nation states he was soon a household name and Margaret Thatcher's favorite journalist. His marriage fell apart in 1993 after an affair with Marina Wheeler, who he married and had a baby with a few weeks later. Back in the UK in the early 90s, his fame grew with regular appearances on talk-shows and columns in the Telegraph, Spectator, GQ. In 1999, Conrad Black offered him to edit the Spectator, on the condition he stayed away from politics.
For Boris, it was time to launch a political career. In 2001, he was elected Conservative MP for Henley on Thames. From 2004 to 2006, 2 romantic affairs were revealed by the tabloid press. Lying about 1 of them got him fired from Michael Howard's shadow cabinet. In 2008, he launched his campaign to become Mayor of London, and won. In February 2016, he announced he was supporting the Leave campaign in the EU referendum and travelled the country in a notorious red bus. In June, the UK voted for Brexit. Cameron resigned. But Boris' bid to become Prime Minister stumbled after he was backstabbed by fellow Leave campaigner Michael Gove. Instead, he was made Foreign Secretary in Theresa May's government. In the job he stirred controversy with Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Indian Sikhs, Myanmar, Libya, Russia and UK business leaders. He quit in 2018, protesting the government's negotiating strategy, but kept up his controversial public profile writing incendiary / offensive columns for the Daily Telegraph.

Well if he can't hold on to a wedding ring,, how do you expect him to hold on to the country's money? And when did he comb his hair last?1985?


Felicia Day four years ago, on my laptop.
Fugit! It's been Four Years!
It's hard to believe, but it's been four years since I stopped freaking out long enough to interview Felicia Day. Back then she had just managed to negotiate a ground-breaking deal with Xbox after sticking to her guns over ownership of her work, and Season 2 of The Guild was just airing. Who could have predicted that Season 6 of The Guild would be airing four years later?
Since that interview I've kept tabs on Felicia and watched her develop her career with aplomb. She has worked hard to make her future her own, and her successes have been many. I hope one day we meet up and have a nice cup of tea and a scone. That would do very nicely.

Treating psychiatric disorders through neuron stimulation

When our bodies go haywire
What to do when the body goes haywire
Squawk Box
Restoring your memory
As many as 1 in 5 veterans return from war with post-traumatic stress disorder. Their current options for treatment are some combination of behavioral therapy and medicine.
But those don't address the electrical circuitry at work in the brain, which scientists hope will provide a more precise option for treatment.
"We've focused a lot on the chemical side, because in the mid-20th century, we began to develop the first medications that affected neurotransmitters," said Dr. Darin Dougherty, director of the division of neurotherapeutics and the department of psychiatry at Massachusetts General Hospital. "The other side, the electrical, that's been less exploited as a treatment potential."

Dougherty and others are working to change that. With funding from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, scientists are working to build new ways to treat psychiatric disorders, like PTSD, through deeper understandings of the electrical signals in our brains.
"What it really boils down to is precision interaction with neurons of the brain that are involved in neuropsychiatric illness," said Justin Sanchez, director of DARPA's biological technologies office.
Patients are already using early models; deep-brain stimulation is FDA-approved for the treatment of Parkinson's disease symptoms as well as obsessive compulsive disorder.
Liss Murphy has firsthand experience. She had a deep-brain stimulation device implanted 10 years ago to treat her severe depression. She now calls it a lifesaver after an episode of depression that started in 2004.
"Nothing could budge it," Murphy said. "I had a resume of like seven pages of all the drugs I tried. I did 30 rounds of [electroconvulsive therapy]. That did nothing; it didn't make a dent. It just got worse and worse and worse."
Out of options, Murphy agreed to try deep-brain stimulation — which is not FDA-approved for depression. It's a serious procedure, requiring brain surgery to put in place.
"Brain surgery just sounds so dramatic and severe and intense," Murphy said. "My greatest hope that day was that I would die on the table. I just had no — it was going to be my last shot: I'll do this and if it doesn't work I can say I tried everything."
But, Murphy said, "It worked."
Modern medicine: Electrical prescriptions
Harnessing the brain's power to improve prosthetic limbs
The device, made by Medtronic
, sends a constant electrical charge to her brain. The newer prototypes being worked on now will be a closed-loop system: Sensing misfires among neurons, and sending corrective charges when needed.
It may be an uphill battle. Previous large studies of the current deep-brain stimulation devices failed to show a benefit in treatment-resistant depression. But researchers like MGH's Dougherty say they hope the next generation of devices could present a whole new set of options for psychiatric disorders.
Murphy says she plans to wear her device for the rest of her life.
"The quality of life is much better and very different," she said. "Just this calmness, of, 'OK, this is what life is like.' It's not feeling nothing all the time or a complete void. I was content."

What In-House Counsel Need to Know About China's New Cybersecurity Law
On November 7, 2016, the Chinese government ratified a new cybersecurity law that provides a legal basis for a wide range of matters including personal privacy, electronic communication, requirements on technology companies operating in China, data-localization and sanctions for violations of the law. The new law goes into effect on June 1, 2017. While this leaves relatively little time for the business community to decide how to react and comply, China circulated earlier drafts of the law for public comment during the last year – reportedly a step that China had not taken with any previous law.
What the Cybersecurity Law Provides
The scope of the new law is broad. It "applies with respect to the construction, operation, maintenance and usage of networks, as well as network security supervision and management within the mainland territory of the People's Republic of China."1 The law thus appears to govern any business that relies on computer networks in China.
Regarding the collection and use of personal information, the new law prohibits "network operators" from providing a data subject's personal information to third parties without the data subject's consent (unless the information is anonymized and does not identify particular individuals). If personal data is released, the network operator must promptly inform affected users and the authorities. A data subject may also request a network operator to delete personal information from a computer system if he or she discovers that collection or use of the information violates the law or a contract between the parties. A data subject may likewise request a network operator to correct any personal information that is inaccurate.
The new law also places additional obligations on network operators. For example, network operators must provide technical support and assistance to the government when it is investigating a crime. They, moreover, are required to adopt technical measures to monitor and record their network operations, and to preserve related web logs for at least six months. Further, they must report "network security incidents" to the government.
The new law singles-out "critical information infrastructure" for special treatment. This term refers to information maintained by certain industry sectors that, if destroyed or damaged, "might seriously endanger national security, national welfare and the people's livelihood, or the public interest." The relevant industry sectors include public communication and information services, energy, transportation, water resources utilization, finance, public service and e-government affairs, and others.
Operators of critical information infrastructures are also subject to a data-localization requirement, under which they must retain, within the territory of China, critical and personal information which they collect and produce during their operations in China. While such information may be transferred outside of China, it must first undergo a security review. Overseas entities or individuals that attack, invade, interfere with or destroy critical information infrastructure in China are subject to fines, and public security agencies in China may adopt sanctions against them, including asset freezing.
Operators of critical information infrastructure are further required to undergo a network safety assessment at least once a year. In addition, when such operators procure network products or services that may affect national security, a national security inspection is required. The broad scope of critical information infrastructure companies, coupled with these inspection requirements, has reportedly raised concerns among non-Chinese businesses that they will be forced to disclose their source code and other corporate secrets to the Chinese government to prove their equipment is secure.
How the new law ultimately will impact the international business community remains to be seen. Significant aspects of the law, such as the scope and content of mandatory inspections, require the Chinese authorities to promulgate implementing regulations. That being said, any company doing, or considering doing, business in China should consult experienced counsel about the implications of the new law, and developments concerning the law must be watched carefully over the next several months.

Q: iOS Custom button in table cell gets dimmed when highlighted I have a button added to a UITableViewCell, at the end. When highlighted, I have a custom highlight layer with transparency on the end. However, the button still gets dimmed, though it's still working. But the user can get the idea it has become inactive. I would like the button to stay as it is, even as the cell is highlighted. I would like to understand why and how the button gets dimmed, even if the highlight layer has full transparency there.

A: UIButton in UITableViewCell
overriding some stuff to fix this.
I tried, but I don't know how to get 'yourButton' to be the button that is in the cell?

A: This finds the button and sets its highlighted state to NO.
-(void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView didSelectRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{

UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:indexPath];
for(UIView *views in cell.subviews)
{
    if(views.tag == indexPath.row){
        for(UIButton *deKnop in views.subviews)
        {
            deKnop.highlighted = NO;
        }
    }
    //if ( [views isKindOfClass:[UIButton class]] ) {
        //do your code
        //[subviews setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"PENCIL.png"] forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];

1994-2016 / 16mm / color-b&w / sound / 1S / 3' 00
Test is a multi-screen work using three animated sequences, a person, a teddy bear and the word TEST, whose synchronicity is continually being broken by the destruction of a tower block.
4 orange letters -TEST, a teddy bear and a person all shift and move busily across 3 screens in synchronous fashion. The sound of a fast ticking stopwatch beats out the rhythm of their movements until the harmony and synchronicity is broken by the thunderous explosion of a block of flats, footage of the demolition of the infamous Queen Elizabeth?s flats in the Gorbals in Glasgow. This sequence moves across the three screens disrupting the movements and attempts at synchronicity between the person, the teddy bear and the letters.
The 3 synchronised screen video has been recently reworked and remastered in the LightCone Atelier 105 Residency programme in Paris. The original footage was shot in 1994, and after being shown as a 3 x 16mm film installation in an exhibition in Edinburgh, the 16mm negatives were lost. A digital scan was made from the 16mm exhibition copies cleaned and colour graded, in keeping with the original aesthetic and quirkiness of the original film.

Career Stats Noll has steadily moved up from SS-A to AA despite being old for the level at each stop, producing enough to warrant a trip to the AFL in 2018. He's been tried at both 2B and 3B and may even be shifted to LF or 1B if he ever produces more than doubles power, but like a lot of Nats IF prospects, he's a hitter not a fielder. He'll most likely repeat AA in 2019.
Career Stats It's not clear whether an injury or the Nats' mercurial motives kept Meregildo from debuting until June, but the young Dominican overcame a slow June and July (.617, .714 OPS) to finish strong in August (.903) with a career-best .443 SLG% and 7HR in 65G. He split time between 1B and 3B so it's possible that his days at 3B could be coming to a close.
Career Stats Hernandez one of several notable $300K signs the Nats made in the July 2017 signing period as a shortstop, but the Venezuelan mostly split time between 3B and 2B in his 2018 debut season. Offensively, he led the D-Nats with 12 steals and hung a very respectable line of .255/.362/.372 with an OPS that was nearly 60 points higher than the lg avg.

No, there's no misspelling in the tile – in case you think it should have been "Software development outsourcing contracts".
Now that you've decided to outsource certain software development for your company, it is time to make a contract with the outsourcing partner. How to proceed? As you do not have any earlier contract as such, do you ask the outsourcing partner to send you a template? Are you confident that you are aware of the points that are needed to be taken into consideration in a software development outsourcing contract? Do you rely on the outsourcing partner and believe that they will tell you all the tricks or hidden pitfalls in the contact?
As software development itself, the contracting part is also the core business of software development companies as they are doing such contacts regularly with different companies. More often than none, and in case a legal department specifically experienced in this matter does not exist within their organization, the companies that are willing to outsource software development activities do not have necessary know-how to negotiate a contract. This leads to signature of software development outsourcing contacts under which the employing parties be vulnerable to risks in case things do not go as planned.
As odd as it may sound, 'outsourcing' the contracting of software development outsourcing services may be a very wise approach in such cases. This 'outsourcing' would be in a form of receiving consultancy services from a third party that has technical and legal experience with the software development contracts and that can negotiate suitable terms on behalf of the employer with the software development outsourcing company. This process would start on the right foot, with both of the negotiating parties knowing that both of the parties know what they are dealing with; and result with a fair contract, that protects the rights of the employer and outsourcing company.
As a part of our consultancy services, we, as SWExperts, provide software development contracting support services. If you are at the stage of signing a software development outsourcing contract, or need support with an existing contact, please feel free to contact us now.


In 23rd century Stark movie stars still exist but have for the most part been replaced by simple recordings of their image, or "avatars". They are designed to be completely faithful representation of the actor concerned, which are then used in lieu of the actor himself on set.
The 'Stars Recycled' news article on the FACT machine mentions 'avatar extraction'. Given the level of technology in TLJ, it is possible that the avatar is generated using TruHolo technology, based on physical scans and voice prints. As all the director has to do is 'instruct' the avatar to act, it probably only has a modicum of artificial intelligence.
The term http//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avatar avatar is known to us from Indian mythology, and indicates hypostases of gods (ie. Krishna is an avatar of Vishnu).
In the late 20th and 21st century "http//www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=avatar avatar" is used to designate a person's pictoral representation in a virtual world, such as the internet or an RPG. Usually they can be customised to the individual's taste.

Traditional project management specifically emphasizes on conducting a long and detailed upfront planning for all projects irrespective of whether the requirements are known or not. The long upfront planning is emphasised to ensure fixing the variable like time, cost, scope etc. Lot of time is spent on upfront planning these parameters. In today's fast changing environment, requirements keep changing, and all this upfront planning is wasted if there is a major change in the specification at a later point of time.
While Agile is a general approach used for software development, agile emphasizes on teamwork, frequent deliveries of working software, customer collaboration, and time boxing events and allowing the ability to respond to change quickly.
Scrum is one of most common used form of Agile. Scrum encourages iterative decision making and reduces time spent on unknown variables which are prone to change. Scrum embraces change like no other. Scrum is based on the concept to deliver the greatest amount of value to the customer in the shorted period of time, ensuring a potentially shippable product at the end of each sprint otherwise called iteration.
Traditional project management emphasis on linear processes, comprehensive documentation, spends high time on upfront planning; all requirements prioritization is fixed for the lifetime of the project, and works in managed organization. Traditional project management is adverse to changes and follows a formal change management system. The Return on Investment is after the project is closed and the customer inputs or the involvement in the project may vary depending on the project lifecycle.
While Agile follows an iterative processes and are divided into sprints of shorter span, as agile is more open to changes in the specification, there is less amount of time spent on upfront planning, prioritization of requirements is based on business value and the product backlog is frequently groomed by the product owner. Agile follows self-organized style as individuals are not managed and the organization is de-centralized. Since Agile is split in iterations they pick up small amount of work and rest can be changed and updated to the prioritized. In Agile the Return of Investment is achieved early as release happens in phased and received throughout the project life. The customer involvement in the project is very high as the development work on the concept of customer collaboration.
These are the major differences between a traditional vs agile project management.

Why must you insult my people and my State in such a way. The People's State has as much of a right to exist as you do, and yet you deny we exist? We do not pretend that your Provisional Government does not have legitimacy to exist on its own terms. Let's be mature and reasonable here, as I know you have been in the past.
The crux of the issue, as you as much as I well know, is that the two legitimate States presently occupying territory in Hulstria have very different constitutions, and very different Rights for their citizens. Indeed these Rights are at present incompatible, having contradictory values held between then. Now the mature and democratic way to go about this process of forming a new united State is for all parties involved to work together on a new Constitution. Such a tremendous undertaking is necessary in order for such a State to be created which best pleases both parties.
The Volksstaat is more than happy to take part in such an undertaking, indeed we are happy to include most of if not all of the provisions within the Septembrist Basic Law, however we seem to think that the Septembrists wish to deny our involvement, and to dictatorially proclaim that the constitution they formed, that they wrote, should be forced upon all people of Hulstria and Gao-Soto, even those which aren't of the Septembrist ilk, especially those citizens of the Volksstaat.
Now if the Septembrists wish to bring about peace, a fair peace, which pleases all parties in this United Front against Nimitz, then the Volksstaat would gladly integrate itself within the new order, and the Volkspartei will run as any other party. However, if you seek to force your own laws onto the Citizens of the Volksstaat with no true democratic process, how can we accept that the Septembrists are a truly democratic force.
Herr Fukuyama, do you accept the overall truthful nature of this premise?
Ambassador Eichenwald Leaves The Platform And Returns To His Seat.
The Provisional Government of the United Imperial Crownlands of Hulstria and Gao-Soto would like to extend its gratitude to the Government of Indrala. I understand a bill to formally recognise our government is being drafted and we are duly grateful. We have also received messages of support from other governments around Terra to which we are as grateful and we would like to urge delegates here to follow their example.
Turning then, to the address just now by Eichenwald-san. I must say I am slightly perplexed. With laudable skill in words, the honourable delegate has succeeded in making the exact thing I proposed just now seem diametrically opposed to the views he states, which are effectively the same! We have invited the People's Party to participate in the elections of an Imperial Diet which will finalise the Constitution of a liberal multi-party democracy in Hulstria and Gao-Soto. It is true that the parties currently working together in the 15th of September Movement would prefer that Constitution to more or less resemble the Basic Law. But we are very keen to defend that view at the ballot box and convinced that the citizens of our nation will endorse it. I wonder, with all due respect to Eichenwald-san, whether the same can be said of the Volkspartei given its obvious reluctance to accept our invitation.
I fail to see what is inherently unfair about the Basic Law. It's a liberal democratic constitutional document which sets forth the rules to be expected in any serious liberal democratic context. In addition, it is based on the same principles as the last democratic Constitution of Hulstria and Gao-Soto, the Imperial Constitution of Hulstria-Mikuni. By several modes of reasoning, submitting yourself to this particular set of rules to push your views is not unreasonable but instead an eminently democratic act that the parties forming the Provisional Government are ready to undertake and will undertake as soon as our country has been reunified with the generous support of the international committee.
We are in effect in agreement! I would urge Eichenwald-san to accept that fact. The question is - does he?
I will have you know that we are surely not in agreement.
The Basic Law, we agree, is a solid basis for a democratic society, but you ignore the economic base of such a State. What the Septembrist movement up until this point has so far failed to grasp, is that although we are in agreement politically, we find the Basic Law lacking an economic position. Indeed we find the Septembrists overall to be devoid of any economic position at all.
You exist solely in the political plane, and although we find your efforts in this field commendable, we find your lack of economic ideas idealistic at best.
What matters isn't simply if people have control of their government, what matters is if people have control of their economy, of the productive forces of their society. Simply declaring democracy while leaving so much under minority control in the hands of both national and international bourgeoisie leads to democratic weakness not democratic strength.
We do not know if our aims are even possible under the circumstances you lay out in your Basic Law, and a State where we cannot achieve our aims is a State which is pointless to participate in save for wasting time, resources and lives. Hence, we seek a meeting between our two governments, to construct our new constitution together, instead of us dismantling before we have an effective State apparatus to operate under.
I appreciate your positive steps Herr Fukuyama, but I am afraid with your current proposals we cannot come to agreement.
I am inexperienced in the ways of diplomacy, discriminated as my people have been in terms of state service during the centuries of apartheid. You will forgive me a little bluntness as I become accustomed to this manner of speaking. I come bringing the joy of my nation to this place. The era of imposed Dundorfian rule is finally over, and we have finally replaced the hated black-and-white with our beloved white, purple and green, symbols of unity in our land. We are overjoyed to return to a state where Hulstrians and Kunihito can live together in harmony under the democratic rule of law. Banzai!
Fukuyama looks very embarrassed by the exceedingly undiplomatic tone of his Ostlander colleague but by the time he gets to the podium, he appears largely unfazed.
Allow me first to express my joy and the joy of the entire citizenry of the United Imperial Crownlands at the end of apartheid in Ostland and congratulate wholeheartedly the Independent Crownland of Ostland-Touryou on this milestone. We are simply overjoyed and deeply honoured to be the first nation to have recognised their new constitutional status and His Imperial and Heavenly Majesty, Emperor Morihito, is deeply humbled by the respect shown to him in the sixth Crownland, independent for centuries but still close kin to those of us in the United Imperial Crownlands.
I cannot for my people's stereotypical love of propriety echo the exact words of the delegation of Ostland-Touryou, but I most certainly share the sentiment that Nimitz must be removed and tried for his crimes against humanity sooner rather than later! We are doing what we can, as we consider these people to be our citizens, to relieve the suffering of our compatriots behind the Heinrich line, but Commandant Gubler and the brave men and women of the Reichsbürgerwehr can only do so much! I implore you to act and help us reclaim our homeland, so we can, like Ostland-Touryou before us, reclaim our historic democratic heritage and see the white, purple and green fly over Hulstria and Gao-Soto once more.
Since I have not yet done so at this podium I would like to humbly thank the Republic of Indra for its recognition of our government. It may seem odd but I do remember my trip to the Towering and Emerald Isle fondly, even if I had to wage a spirited debate to get this universal recognition from their legislature. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
I thank the chair and yield.
Honourable delegates, peace be with you.
His Holiness Quirinus XIII, the Arch-Patriarch, is pleased with the resolution currently before the Security Council as proposed by the delegation of Istalia. We would, however, like to draw attention to the threats the Selucian regime has made against the sanctity and sovereignty of the seat of the Holy See, the Empyrean City State in Auroria. Word is that there are plans to capture and imprison His Holiness and to annex the territory. We urge the Security Council to guarantee the sovereignty of the Empyrean City State, and to take this into consideration when censuring Selucia.

A Twin Peaks Road Trip
Visiting the real Washington inspirations for David Lynch's fictional world
The real Twin Peaks: Visiting these locations is like stepping into the series' wonderful, strange world.
Part of the appeal of Twin Peaks — and much of its enduring mystique — comes from its colorful, distinctive Pacific Northwest settings. A lot of the series' interiors were shot on Hollywood soundstages, but exteriors, especially in the early episodes, were filmed in such quaint, picturesque Washington towns as North Bend, Snoqualmie and Fall City.
The enduring popularity of Twin Peaks means those towns are still visited by series enthusiasts — I stopped at a few last February during a road trip to the Oregon coast — and it's somewhat surreal to inhabit locations that seem so otherworldly on TV. Here are five you should check out if you find yourself on the other side of the state.
Twede's Cafe, 137 W. North Bend Way, North Bend
Situated on an otherwise nondescript corner, this greasy spoon, known as the Double R Diner on the show, serves as a meeting place for many Twin Peaks residents. A fire ravaged the building in 2000, but you would never know that now: It still looks like it did back in 1990, wood paneling and all. The hallway leading to the bathrooms is covered in Twin Peaks memorabilia, including framed photos of series co-creator David Lynch and the actors filming there. Order one of nearly 40 different burger varieties, knock back a damn fine cup of coffee and have some "Twin Peaks Cherry Pie," which is $4.99 a slice.
Reinig Bridge, SE Reinig Rd., Snoqualmie
Snoqualmie is just three miles away from North Bend, and there's a lot to see there. Once used to transport lumber, this bridge is seen in the pilot episode as Laura's friend Ronette, who escaped from the killer's clutches, stumbles down the nearby railroad tracks. It's now a pedestrian bridge crossing over the Snoqualmie River, and visitors have scrawled the distinctive Twin Peaks symbol on many of the steel girders. The site of the Twin Peaks sign, seen on the show's title card, is also nearby, though the sign itself has long since been removed.
The Salish Lodge on Snoqualmie Falls, 6501 Railroad Ave., Snoqualmie
If you'd never seen Snoqualmie Falls in person, you might think that its appearance on Twin Peaks was some kind of special effect. The stand-in for the exterior of the Great Northern Hotel, seen in just about every episode, the lodge offers an amazing view both inside and out. Its interiors, however, were not used for the show.
Snoqualmie Falls Lumber Company, 396th Dr. SE, Snoqualmie
The belching smokestacks of the Packard Sawmill appear in the show's opening credits sequence, but most of the Snoqualmie Falls Lumber Company has since been torn down (one of those stacks is still standing and is visible from the road). The building that doubled as the sheriff's department, one of the most prominent locations in Twin Peaks, is right across the street; it's now a school where you can learn to drive race cars.
Kiana Lodge, 14976 Sandy Hook Rd. NE, Poulsbo
This stop's a bit out of the way — it's on the Kitsap Peninsula, a two-hour drive from Snoqualmie and North Bend — but a number of pivotal Twin Peaks places are here. The Kiana Lodge was actually used for two different locations: as the lobby of the Great Northern Hotel (with its distinctive Native American wall decorations) and the exterior of the Blue Pine Lodge, where the Martell family resides. And just a few feet away is the place where Laura Palmer's body was first discovered on the beach.

We were recently loaned a Davinci 1.0A printer to test and review.
So far as first impressions it is very commercial in its' design almost like a microwave, which is nice for the office environment.
It self calibrates and is quite easy to set up out of the box to get it up and running.
The print quality so far has been rather decent as long as one occasionally cleans the print head.
We tested it with the abs filament and were impressed.
I am not entirely sure if it can print with soft PLA so that phone cases can be printed with it or not.
We will have more details in a future article.
So far we like the design, ease of setup and use, and the build quality is decent.
We wish that it could print on materials other than pla and abs.
In addition, the software is works well but not as flexible as other software such as matter control from matterhackers.
For more information go to XYZ Printing!
We will have a video up soon, and more information on the Davinci 1.0a as well.
Overall it is a nice device that is very solid and well constructed and is definitely a decent value for the money.

Book review by Carrie Kingsley, Common Sense Media
Journey to discover meaning of love is warm and thoughtful.
Mac Barnett Picture Book 2021
Diverse Representations Not present
Parents need to know that What Is Love?, by Mac Burnett and illustrated by Carson Ellis, is a warm, wonderful journey to see the many ways a person can feel love, and the things that really matter in life. The soft, colorful images pull in the reader and help them imagine a world of meaningful conversation and questioning. The young boy's exploration is lovely and invites young readers to think about how they feel and express love in their own lives.
In WHAT IS LOVE?, a young boy asks his grandmother what love is, and when she can't tell him, he goes into the world to find out for himself. He asks a poet, a fisherman, a cat, an actor, and others, but no one's answer satisfies him. It's only when he returns to his grandmother's home and feels the love and connection there that he understand the answer to his own question.
Author Mac Burnett and illustrator Carson Ellis have collaborated on a wonderful exploration of trying to define the feeling of love. What Is Love? shows the many ways people care for each other, and that love means something different to everyone. It can be hard to put that feeling into words, but you know it when you feel it, and at that moment you can understand its importance.
Families can talk about how to answer the question What Is Love? in their own lives. What small gestures make you feel loved?
What can you do to show the people and animals in your life that you care about them?
When was a time that you've felt loved?

Terrorizer Magazine Hail Alunah as Future of Doom and Soph Gets Interviewed!
So who's got their copy of Terrorizer Magazine's "Secret History of Doom" magazine special yet?? If so, you'll have noticed that they have very kindly included us in their future of doom section alongside our buddies in Trippy Wicked And The Kosmic Children Of The Knight and Undersmile. We're also featured on their "Doom or be Doomed" CD with our track "Call of Avernus" alongside such awesomeness as Saint Vitus, Lord Vicar and Witch Mountain.
The magazine features interviews with Black Sabbath, Cathedral, Pentagram, Sunno)), Lord Vicar, Sleep, Paradise Lost, Candlemass and Electric Wizard. Soph was interviewed for the Future of Doom piece but as it was not all included here's the interview in full:
In our future of doom feature you're the only band in it that hail from the genre's birthplace of Birmingham - how do you feel about your hometown and are you proud it spawned the music you love?
Yeah we come from the surrounding areas of Birmingham and can safely say that we all love the area and are huge fans of the music it has given birth to - especially a certain band from Aston! I have always been proud of our musical heritage but the recent Home of Metal events that were held in and around the area really drove home to me just how proud I am of being in a band from the Midlands, not just Birmingham but the whole area. In fact, we get asked very often by bands coming over from different countries to show them around Aston!
How do you feel being hailed by Terrorizer as the future of doom? Is this something you are proud of and who do you consider your contemporary peers?
Yeah its pretty cool for you guys to refer to us as being the future of doom. Like I say, doom is only one element of our sound but it is a pretty big element and one that pushes us to explore various styles within the doom spectrum. Bands who we consider to be our contemporary peers include Trippy Wicked & The Cosmic Children of the Knight, General, Stubb, Serpent Venom, Sigiriya and Gringo. There are many many more though, too many to mention here.
Do you agree that there is something about Birmingham that lends itself to doom? Even now, when it's been drastically regenerated?
Its been pretty well documented that Birmingham inspired Black Sabbath to play the way they did, along with Tony's accident, but nowadays its a totally different city and I feel more inspired standing in the middle of a field than I do standing in the middle of Birmingham. Also, doom is only one facet of what we do, we find inspiration in many areas. I think if Birmingham lent itself to doom that much, there would be a lot more doom bands coming from the area and unfortunately there is hardly any.
You've been heavily touring recently, are you happiest on the road or in the studio?
If I had to choose I would say that I prefer being on the road but I love being in the studio laying down months of hard work. It's always great to hear the new material taking shape and coming together. Being on the road is freedom, breaking from the daily grind, doing what you love, meeting new people, visiting new places and having dirty hair! We've just signed with Big Bad Mothers House booking agency so we're looking at having a lot more shows and tours in the coming year.
You've got a new album, tell us about that?
Yeah we're just about to record the new album which we're recording again with Greg Chandler but this time mixing and mastering with Tony Reed from Stone Axe / Mos Generator who has just recorded the new St. Vitus album. We'll be releasing it around Summer time with PsycheDOOMelic Records and looking to tour in September. We haven't spent as long writing as we did for "Call of Avernus" and as a result have focused more on the direction we want to take, we think it is a much more rounded album.
