[NW] Spoiled Chapter 18
Have a dropped novel you want to read more chapters of?
The stutterer gave Han Yun a look that he preened at: "Bro, was it your boyfriend or a hook up?" He lowered his voice. "How fierce was it? Do you accept threesomes? Can I join in? "
This seemed to be common in the LGBT community. Everyone wanted to be the bottom, not the top. At times when a top cannot be found, two bottoms will make do and compromise: "You bottomed yesterday, so it's my turn today."
Understanding dawned on Han Yun and his face darkened: "It was very fierce. You can't join."
The cheerleading challenge round will take three days. The first two days were for training with a professional dance teacher.
The dance teacher was a effeminate male. Han Yun has a good impression of him, feeling that he was like the grand eunuch by his side in the past.
The teacher said: "My name is Eric. How many of you have never learnt how to dance before, raise your hands."
The stutterer raised his hand.
He turned his head and looked at Han Yun who did not raise his hand. "Why, why are you not raising your hand, did you, you learn before?"
Han Yun recalled, the original owner… had never learned how to dance. However, he does not like admitting his weakness in front of so many people. He was competitive. What others have, he must have, and what others know, he must know as well. But as he looked sideways, he found that many people have raised their hands. After some thought, he raised his hand as well.
Eric: "Wow, there are so many. We only have two days to learn. There is definitely not enough time for all of you to start learning from the basics. Dancing is not difficult. The important things are to have mutual rapport, and be energetic."
He raised his little finger and ordered: "Those who have learned how to dance before, stand in the first row. I will choose a lead dancer later."
"He is so, mesmerising." The stutterer sighed in a low voice.
Eric grabbed someone randomly: "Come on, follow my actions." He turned his back to the contestants, faced the mirror, and began to twist his hips.
Seeing him so explicitly sexy, Han Yun slowly lost his smile.
His expression was stiff: "Do we really have to learn this?"
The stutterer: "You haven't seen more extreme before. This is still… Well, hip hop is suitable for both male and female. When a male dresses up as a belly dancer, it is really much more... "
Eric taught action by action.
Han Yun suffered as he learned how to dance. He sweated profusely, and twisted his butt and waist so much that it seemed his waist would break. And his legs… There was no one part of his body that was comfortable after the day had passed!
At half past six, Eric said: "Everyone has worked hard today. Take a warm bath after reaching home, it can relax your muscles."
A female model standing to the side was complaining: "It has been a long time since I've done this. I will go to a spa later. Do you all want to go with me?"
"I'm not going. A handsome young basketball player asked me for my number just now. I'm going out on a date with him."
"So fast? Who is it… the one who is very cheerful? "
The stutterer moved closer to Han Yun's ear and said: "It's the, young masculine boy with, six pack, and sexy chest hair. I would really like to, tease him."
As soon as he ended the sentence, voices floated over from the women's side again: "I feel that Han Yun is more handsome though..."
They kept their voices down, thinking that no one could hear them: "Let's stop talking, he seems to be gay. Forget about it..."
Han Yun's body ached terribly. If not for being reserved, he would have lain on the ground to rest.
The stutterer twisted his lip and said: "Let's go, and eat? There… is a place nearby, with delicious roast duck. After eating, we can go, to a spa too."
Han Yun wanted to go home, but the thought of going to a spa was attractive.
Memories surfaced of undressing, leaving only underwear on, lying down, and a pair of hands massaging essential oil on the back.
Han Yun wavered: "Is the masseur male or female?"
"Generally, females, but," he said with a sly smile, "I know, a spa that provides dedicated service to gays. There are only male masseurs, and only gays can enter. It is very secretive. The masseurs have, amazing physiques, and will give you a great massage, while riding on your body... "
"Oh, males." Han Yun lost interest, and said with a disdainful expression, "I'm not going then, I'm heading home."
There was no point if they are all men.
The stutterer dragged Han Yun to dinner before letting him take a taxi home. Of the fifty contestants, there was not no one who was going solo, but working collaboratively will be safer. The stutterer felt that Han Yun has the best looks out of all contestants. He knew that Han Yun was capable after seeing his still photos, so it was certain that he will not go wrong by making friends with him.
Han Yun was too tired, his whole body aching so badly that he could not even lean on the seat in the taxi.
He almost fell asleep in the taxi. The first thing he did when he got home was to turn on warm water and take a bath.
Han Yun poured some rose essential oil next to him into the warm water. He was allergic to flower pollen, but not to refined essential oil. The bathroom was large, larger than the dog house he used to live in.
The bath was very comfortable, but the strength of massage was a little unbearable for Han Yun who was more sensitive today. Closing his eyes, he quietly immersed himself in the warm water. The fragrance of roses wafted through the huge bathroom.
He even had a short dream while embraced by warm water. He felt as if he heard the ethereal voice of his mother, the imperial concubine, calling him: "Little nine, little nine..."
Han Yun ranked ninth among the many sons of the former Emperor. His brother called him ninth brother, and his father also called him little nine. Only these two people could call Han Yun by that name.
When darkness descended, Han Yun seemed to notice. His eyelashes trembled, but he did not open his eyes.
Fu Yuan walked towards his back, the sound of footsteps in the quiet darkness too clear to melt into the night.
"Your Majesty, do you mind if this minister comes in?"
Han Yun thought he meant to enter the bathroom and shook his head: "It doesn't matter." Anyway, it was too dark to see anything.
Next, water shifted as a foot entered the bathtub. Han Yun was shocked: "Why did you come in?"
"Your Majesty doesn't mind?"
Han Yun: "…"
"I thought you meant..." entering the bathroom.
He clenched his jaw, wanting to say that he minded very much about sharing baths. But this was the state teacher and not just anyone else. The house and car were all owned by the state teacher… If he said he minded, it may hurt his feelings?
While he was hesitating, Fu Yuan had already sat down in the bathtub.
Han Yun felt uncomfortable, and coupled with not being able to see, he felt his hackles rising.
Fortunately, the bathtub was relatively large, so Han Yun could begrudgingly bear with it. However, the state teacher's scent was even stronger than the heavy rose fragrance, and very overbearingly occupied Han Yun's every breath.
He silently lost his temper in his heart. Feeling Fu Yuan's leg touch him, he said: "Beloved subject, you are squashing me."
Fu Yuan smiled: "Is Your Majesty tired after a day of training?"
Han Yun answered yes. The thought of having to train for another day tomorrow, made him feel like withdrawing from the competition again. But if he withdraws from the competition now, the training done today would be in vain?
At this moment, Han Yun suddenly felt a pair of hands hold his feet.
He froze: "What are you doing..." Before he finished speaking, Fu Yuan placed one hand on his calf. It was just the right amount of pressure, with a trace of warmth that permeated his aching muscles. Han Yun felt instantly better, and suddenly he did not mind taking a bath with the state teacher anymore.
"Are your legs sore?" Fu Yuan asked him.
Han Yun said yes forlornly: "I feel so achy, including my waist, back and neck… my butt too. My whole body is aching," he stretched out his other leg, which seemed to land on Fu Yuan's legs, and said, "hurry up and massage more! "
Fu Yuan's smile deepened, his large palm gradually moving up his calf: "Does Your Majesty feel good?"
Han Yun felt so comfortable: "Yes, it's okay." He hummed happily, "Massage other areas as well, my whole body is aching."
"When you get into bed later, I will massage Your Majesty again."
After his two legs were massaged, Han Yun turned around to lay on the bathtub platform. He said sleepily: "Xuan Zhu, help me rub my back."
Han Yun fell asleep.
He only woke while being carried to the bed. Half awake, half dreaming, he said: "No need to wait on me, you may leave."
He was not aware that the state teacher got into his bed, and that he hugged the state teacher for the whole night. But when he got up the next day, his body aches had disappeared miraculously, and he was in better spirits than usual.
During the second day of training, Han Yun was relaxed. The stutterer was perplexed: "I thought you, couldn't walk, yesterday? You look so, so energetic today. "
Han Yun simply said: "I did a spa yesterday."
"The effects, were so good? Which place did you go? Can you introduce, to me? "
"I did it at home," Han Yun looked at him, "but, he is mine. He only serves me. Don't think about it."
After today's training ended, the next day was the basketball match. The contestants will cheer for ten minutes before the match, and voting results will be made known after the match.
Han Yun's dancing was average. He fooled around in the group, which did not affect much.
The winner was one of the female contestants. Rumour was it that she was a professional dancer once. She was no longer young, but switched profession to become a model.
On the way back in the bus, the stutterer held on to the few wechat accounts he had managed to obtain: "I can't believe, that there are so many gays among the athletes," he enlarged a group photo of the basketball team with his fingers, "who do you like, like? I may be able to give you, his contact details."
Han Yun gave it a once over: "None."
The stutterer said oh: "Right, you, already have someone who is more, more fierce," he glanced at Han Yun, "and only serves you."
There was a rest day after the challenge ended, followed by recording of a still photo shoot.
It was Song Lin who told Han Yun about the still photo shoot too. However, he did not disclose the details. He only mentioned that the contestants will be divided into teams of twos, and promotion to the top 30 will happen tomorrow.
As there were more female models, male and female models will be first randomly combined into teams, and the remaining female models will be paired together.
Han Yun teamed up with a female model whom he had worked with previously, Chen Tiantian, who was assigned to the same group as him in the recording of the dark fairy tale.
Among the female models, her capabilities were ranked towards the middle and upper tiers. Her face does not leave an lasting impression on people. She was a model studying in the department of fashion performance in an institute of fashion.
Thus, she has excellent professional knowledge, but lacks experience.
There was a small gap between her rabbit teeth, causing a slight lisp when she speaks. According to her: "When I was a freshman, I made a trip to the dental clinic to make the gap."
She does not leave an impression, and it was the gap that people remember her by.
Towards her team mate Han Yun, she was very wary, being both teammates and opponents. Strong capabilities can allow still photos to turn out for the better, but weak capabilities… It will be disadvantageous if one person overpowers the other, resulting in lacking still photos, and the judges' score will go down directly.
Chen Tiantian reached out and shook his hand: "I hope we can cooperate well and defeat the rest."
Upon seeing the boxing ring arranged in the recording studio, along with boxing gloves of various colours, motorcycles, and black graffiti on the walls, everyone immediately knew – the still photo shoot was related to boxing.

FSU dismisses running back Mario Pender after arrest
Published on May 7, 2016 in Sports/Top Headlines by Gary Shelton
It didn't take Florida State long to divest itself from running back Mario Pender.
The Seminoles removed Pender from the team Saturday evening, only hours after he was arrested for domestic violence and resisting arrest.
"(Pender) has been permanently dismissed from the football team following his arrest earlier in the day," the school said in a statement. "The athletic department will have no further comment at this time."
Pender was ranked as the fourth-best running back in 2012 class. However, he has struggled to stay on the field. He was redshirted in 2012, academically ineligible in 2014. Injuries limited him in 2014 and 2015, including a collapsed lung in 2015.
In 2011, as a high school senior, Pender was arrested by Cape Coral police after an altercation with his girlfriend. The police report said that during a dispute inside the car, he hit her with a right backhand before asking her to get out and give him the keys. The charges were later dropped by the state attorney's office due to lack of evidence, according to the Tallahassee Democrat.
Pender found himself in the middle of another incident in December 2013 along with his half brother, Tim Pruitt, former FSU offensive lineman Ira Denson and Denson's friend Tarron Addison. Denson stole Pender's debit card; then Pender stole Denson's shoes as a form of collateral, and a meeting to return the items turned violent as Addison allegedly shot Pruitt in his head, according to court documents obtained by the Orlando Sentinel.

"This memory strategy involves associating new language information with familiar concepts already in memory" (*1, p. 60). I've used tricks like this for myself for years, like the "I'm a genie" trick to remember how to spell imagine (im-a-gin-e) and corazón (Spanish for heart) is the core of a person. "The associations can be simple or complex, mundane or strange, but they must be meaningful to the learner" (*1, p. 41).
My associations with the word "Fly"
Even though I use it for my own language learning, I don't know that I've ever used this strategy in my teaching. It seems like such an obvious strategy for learning words that I've just assumed that students would do it on their own. Now, after actually thinking about it, I'm not so sure they do.
With the large amount of vocabulary we cover in class, is it a good idea to spend time elaborating on words during our time together, or is it better to model the strategy and to leave the responsibility for using it with the students?
For in-class strategy use, I think a free association exercise might be helpful (there is a good explanation of an activity here). After listing associations, students have to explain the connection to the target term. For more advanced students, maybe a Semantic Feature Analysis activity would be helpful. A Semantic Feature Analysis chart "can examine related concepts but make distinctions between them according to particular criteria across which the concepts can be compared." There is an example here with presidents and features of their candidacy and campaigns, but the same structure can be applied to words that are similar in meaning, or related in topic.
For out-of-class activities, the association/elaboration strategies could be a good homework assignment to populate a vocabulary list of the most difficult words to remember. Have the students choose one or two words each from the discussion and then create an association or elaboration device for it. Pull everyone's words together to make a list for everyone to study.
Do you know any other ways to incorporate association or elaboration strategies into vocabulary learning? What's worked for you?


When your dog grows older, you'll still want to care for him as well as you can. At this stage of his life, an orthopedic bed may be in order. Orthopedic beds that are made with medical-grade orthopedic foam are perfect for easing pressure on your dogs joints and will shape according to the contour of your dog, each time he lays down.
Some orthopedic dog beds have quilted covers that can be removed and washed. These covers come in different designs and the zippers are covered. You can buy an extra cover to have a spare when needed. Some dog beds with medical-grade foam come with heating ability that is low level and safe. The heat is therapeutic for dogs with muscle strains or arthritis.
Gel beds are good dog beds that keep your dog warm in the winter and cool in the summer. The bed has thick insulation for the winter and the gel has a cooling effect for the summer. Dog beds also come in styles like spindle beds, loungers, mats, chaise beds, crate beds, and there are iron bed frames.
Dog crates are useful and can be a safe haven for a dog properly crate trained. A folding crate to use when traveling with your dog by air comes in handy. Some of them fold down as small as a briefcase. And have straps to carry the crate that can be used as a leash. Breeding crates and whelping crates are available. There are replacement floor pans for some crates. Dog crate pads and beds are available.
If you like to go camping, to outdoor events or the beach, then a dog pup tent can be useful. They are made with sunscreen material, have good airflow, have screened windows, and a zipper. Soft crates made of nylon are another alternative and they are lightweight. If you are into showing your dog, this may be a good item for you. Mesh type crates that setup with two poles have good ventilation, create a den effect; some can be locked with a padlock. The soft crates and tents may not be appropriate for dogs that chew a lot or puppies.
Dog carriers are another useful item. They are good for taking small dogs to the vet. There are different kinds of dog carriers such as leather, denim, fur, and checkered. You can get backpack dog carriers, city carriers, and travel carriers. Some carriers are airline approved. Some of the dog carriers are combination carriers that can be used as a backpack or used like rolling luggage.
Doghouses like igloos are made that have vents for airflow and are insulated for the winter. These doghouses have conduits that move rainwater away from the door of the doghouse. These doghouses have moats that trap any liquids inside and whisk it away from the dog.
There are such a variety of doghouses, carriers, beds, and crates on the market today; there is something out there for every dog owner and each dog.

1. YOUR WORK FEATURES REPRESENTATIONS OF SHAMANS AND IMAGERY OF THE AMERICAN SOUTHWEST. WHERE DO YOU DRAW INSPIRATION FROM AND HOW HAVE THE PLACES YOU'VE LIVED INFLUENCED YOUR STYLE?
I have lived most of my life in Tucson, Arizona. I moved here when I was 10 and went to college at Northern Arizona University. Up there I developed some familiarity with Navajo and Hopi culture. When I was a grad student, my roommate was a Hopi who had been born on Second Mesa and had a wife and child still living there. Occasionally he and I would get in his old pickup truck and drive along the flat plains of Northern Arizona heading towards the four corners area in the misty early morning hours in the most magical of places. His wife was kind enough to share stories from Hopi tradition with me, such as the story of spider woman who taught people to weave. I don't know that it was directly a causative factor in what I do, but I have never forgotten the feeling that poured into me as we drove along those empty stretches of road with purple mesas in the distance as the first gold tint of sun began to invade our surroundings. The image is so powerful that it has stayed with me for decades.
When I first started showing my art, I was painting imagery of people. I thought I was doing great stuff, but people at art shows would say, "Why would I want someone I don't know hanging on my wall?" Argue as I might, I simply couldn't sell a painting. I recall – through the haze of decades – that I was in my living room bemoaning this sad state of affairs and looking at the image of a profile of a woman I had gotten back from the gallery. I was in the Southwest, so I decided I should put some Southwest into the painting. I put a feather in her hair and took the painting back to the gallery. It sold in a week. The lesson in that occurrence was that apparently – once I added something that looked American Indian – the painting became desirable. I came to understand that people coming to Tucson, whether to visit or live, very much related it to American Indian culture. I had to make a decision now that I had discovered I could turn a painting nobody wanted into a piece of romanticized culture people could take home. I had to come to terms with being willing to go down that road or not, and I decided it was worth the journey. By adding feathers, beads, and bone necklaces, I could paint the imagery of people I wanted to paint, and that seemed a small price to pay. The accoutrements enhanced the figures I was doing and began to become an integral part of my thinking about these figures – not just a device to increase saleability. I have made a good living since 1979 and have sold millions of dollars worth of paintings.
2. MUCH OF YOUR WORK IS A BLUR BETWEEN REALISM AND ABSTRACTION. WHY DO YOU MIX ELEMENTS AND HOW DID YOU UNCOVER YOUR DISTINCTIVE STYLE?
I went to college in the 1960s, and in the 1960s if you were working towards a Bachelor of Fine Arts you were expected to do abstract or nonobjective work. Figurative work was seen as antiquarian, it wasn't modern enough. Everything that needs to be said about the human figure had already been said and wasn't important anymore. I did life drawing like everyone else, but didn't do any significant figurative work because I would have been laughed out of class and not received a degree. But right after graduation I got a commission from the head librarian at Northern Arizona University to do six paintings for the new library that was being constructed. I'd just recieved my BFA and didn't have to worry about pleasing a professor, so I decided to do figurative imagery loosely based on Coleridge's poem Kubla Khan.
That was the beginning, and I think I've always had a fanciful nature. As the years have gone by, the figures have taken on lives of their own. They have developed structurally into anatomically impossible figures which I refer to as being almost human. I had the opportunity not long ago to take a look at a few things I did in college and shortly after graduation. I was stunned to see in them little circles and bubbles and swirls and curlicues and figures that were way too tall and had shoulders that were way too narrow or way too broad. I had no idea those ideas had been percolating in my artistic consciousness all those years ago. I didn't know I had been singing the same song all this while, just adding new words and new verses.
3. WHAT IS UNIQUE ABOUT YOUR STUDIO SPACE OR CREATIVE PROCESS?
It has often been said that the most important line in a drawing is the first line because everything else relates to it. I use a little stick of grapevine charcoal. Grapevine doesn't fall apart into ash, but becomes a stick of charcoal when burned if too little oxygen is present for complete combustion. I've used other materials, but started using this in college. I use it to make the first line and all the way through to the finish of the drawing. If someone came in the night and stole my grapevine charcoal I would not be able to do another painting. This is the tool that I know best. When you've used something for decades, it becomes an extension of yourself.
When anything changes, such as when the canvas makers change cotton suppliers or when they stretch the canvas differently or use a new primer, it takes me weeks to adapt – and sometimes I can't. Sometimes I have to sand it down or add more gesso layers. For years I used the same make, number, and style of brush to sign my name on my paintings. It was an extension of my hand. When I started to paint again after retirement, I couldn't find those brushes anymore. I've been painting now again for two years and I still struggle to sign my name because the brush isn't the same. It makes my crazy. I also scumble – using a dry brush which leaves some e color in the valleys of the weave. It's really scrubbing, and as you scrub with a brush, you lose the point. It wears out. The brushes I like the best are perfectly worn for me. If I had to start with pointy springy brushes, I wouldn't be able to do what I do.
4. YOU CATER TO BOTH RESIDENTIAL AND PUBLIC ART BUYERS. HOW HAS THIS INFLUENCED YOUR CAREER AND HOW DID YOU BREAK INTO THE PUBLIC ART SPHERE?
That division of public and private on my website is a construct that I decided to use a few months ago, even though my work has been purchased by corporations and businesses for years. IBM bought six of my pieces in the mid to late 1970s. Many corporations and public spaces have purchased them. The buyers have had to be really gutsy because my paintings are intense and confrontational. I learned in college that you're not supposed to center the composition or use black. But I had to ignore those rules so that I could do what was in my head – these confrontational beings. In the 1970s, as my career began to take off, my main clientele was made up of willful, very wealthy, and very self-assured real estate developers in the Southwest. They would often buy my paintings and put the most powerful one behind their desk to increase their power and intimidate whoever was in front of the desk. In the early 1980s, there was a savings and loan crisis kind of like the banking crises we just had. People were playing fast and loose with the rules. Suddenly these multi-millionaire developers were penniless and on the lam from the Department of Justice.
Suddenly my sales almost disappeared. But I knew the money hadn't disappeared: someone else had it. And I decided that it must now be in the hands of the real estate developers' attorneys. So, I thought about what attorneys want in their offices. They're going to want something that looks toward a bright future and a big settlement. I did my best to accommodate my imagined desire on the part of the attorneys and turned my figures around. I painted them from the back. I could do that because all kinds of Native American ceremonies incorporate wonderful costumes. They were obviously looking forward to something, and that had to be a brighter future. As soon as I did that, my paintings started to sell again. After a few years and after enough people had asked, I turned my figures back around.
5. WHY HAVE YOU BEGUN TO PAINT LANDSCAPES AND STILL LIFES AFTER ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY PAINTING SHAMANS?
My paintings are very intense and almost all have confrontational eye contact. In many cases, people don't believe they are appropriate for public spaces, so for the first time in 40 years I'm doing landscapes again. I've discovered parts of me that I've had to tamp down as I pursued a career. I have to convince people that it's alright to like a Lawrence Lee that isn't an intense quasi-American Indian shamanistic figure. Since 1985 I have been an artist member of a private club called the Mountain Oyster Club. It was started in 1948 by a group of wealthy young polo players who decided they ought to have a place for themselves. They had a love of Southwestern art, especially cowboy art. They started to have an annual art show to raise money and it became so successful that it attracted the very best Southwestern and cowboy artists. If you didn't have work in the M.O. show, you were nobody.
In the 1980s, most of the founding members had departed or passed away, and one guy decided who was accepted into the show. You had to get on this one guy's radar, so he might call you and come to your studio. At that point he would make a final determination. They have an annual show that is still very good, but it's mostly cowboy work. But my work has always been a little too large and little too strange. I never knew why he decided to let me in. So this year I decided to do some special pieces for the people who go to the M.O. show every year. That got me to thinking about boots and spurs. I got to apply my artistic sensibilities to that specific subject matter. In all those pieces I take a subset of larger shapes. I may be focusing on the bottom part of a boot or stirrup or part of a saddle with a spur because that's the way I think. I usually try to include in my work a bit of cognitive dissonance like a bubble or a butterfly and I never know what's going to show up next. The move into that area was a business calculation and was born out of a belief that in the late stage of my career I can paint good paintings that aren't shamans.
6. YOUR ART IS COLLECTED ALL OVER THE WORLD IN PLACES LIKE JAPAN, CHINA, AND ACROSS EUROPE. WHAT STEPS DID YOU TAKE TO SELL ART OUTSIDE OF THE US AND GAIN INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION?
By and large I have not had to take one step outside of Tucson to do that because this is a world traveler destination in and of itself. Arizona has Monument Valley and the Grand Canyon and the Old Pueblo. People come here from all over the world and want to take home some of the magic found here, so my art is a perfect match. I find out from galleries or friends of friends that a foreign collector has one of my pieces. Someone will say: "By the way, this gallery is shipping one of your pieces to a man in Shanghai." That's largely how it has happened. I did have a one-man show in Paris, but even that happened because a clothing designer from Paris who was vacationing in Tucson contacted me because she wanted to show my work there.
7. YOU HAVE BEEN IN AN IMPRESSIVE NUMBER OF MAJOR EXHIBITIONS. HOW DO YOU PREPARE FOR THESE EVENTS AND WHAT ADVICE DO YOU HAVE FOR OTHER ARTISTS?
One thing that a lot of artists don't understand is that people usually want to purchase art that is going to live in their homes with them. In areas outside of NYC, LA, and Brussels and the like, if you do a work of high concept art that is a statement about the devolution of man as represented by rubberized foam worms suspended from a ceiling over kiddy pools filled with artificially sweetened coffee, you're probably not going to find someone to buy it for their home. You have to understand that if you want to make a living doing that kind of thing, you have to move to a city that accepts that sort of art. My advice is to look your art as though you are a potential buyer. You can figure out a lot if you do that.
Many years ago, I showed in San Francisco and couldn't sell a thing. I was depressed until I thought about it and did some careful research. I discovered that most of the homes owned by people that could buy my work had walls that were way too small for it. If I was living in San Francisco I would have known that almost instinctively. If I'm living in a three story old Victorian house down near Union Square, what kind of things would I want on my walls? In Tucson, most people want things on their walls that have a Southwestern flavor unless they were born and raised in Boston and want to bring their sailing ships. It's important to know the places your potential buyers live in. If you're a potential buyer, what would you want to know about the artist? If you have questions about the artist, your potential buyers are going to have the same questions about you. In other words, do your best to figure out what your potential buyers want and try to give it to them.

Q: How to test if Qore object is inherited from a specific class When I have more classes, how can I test if instance is derived from a class?
class a {
};
class b inherits a {
};
class c inherits b {
};

a B = new b();
a C = new c();
assert ((B is instance_of b) == (C is instance_of b))

Ugly hack is testing B.className == 'b' but it is wrong for 'C'. I cannot find an operator.

A: use the instanceof operator:
class A {
}
class B inherits A {
}
class C inherits B {
}

A a();
B b();
C c();

printf("%y %y %y\n", a instanceof B, b instanceof B, c instanceof C);

prints: False True True
(the code above is based on your code but follows Qore's standard naming conventions and was also corrected for syntax errors)

The Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Is A 565Hp Maniac's Machine
The Aston Martin V12 Vantage S is a car that removes the smooth, silky Aston Martin veneer and shows it true self - an angry, shouty driving machine. An Aston Martin V12 Vantage S is perfect if you want to tell everyone you have a gentleman's car, but are actually kind of a lunatic.
The people over at XCAR have driven it and they say it is crazy. Watch the video below to see the full review. Or you can just listen to it, that is the noise they play in heaven.
Porsche 911 GT3 vs Aston Martin V12 Vantage S on track
Check out this great video of the new 991-generation Porsche 911 GT3 against the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S, the fastest ever Aston.
The new 911 GT3 is simply one of the best sports cars money can buy. With its breadth of abilities, it's more accessible than ever, yet it still offers the track-inspired technology and driver engagement it's famous for. Few cars, at any price, can match its performance and handling.
Since its launch in 1999, the Porsche 911 GT3 has been the benchmark against which every other track-focused car has been rated. There are more powerful, more expensive 911s, but the GT3 represents the sports car at its purest and most intense. In fact, all four generations of GT3 arguably rank alongside 1973's legendary 2.7 RS in the annals of greatest 911s.
As for the Aston Martin, this is the company at its best. They are producing cars that driving enthusiasts can really get excited about. We love its engine, its handling and its styling but can't help being frustrated by the gearbox. To illustrate just how good the rest of the car is, though, you'll find yourself forgiving the V12 S its quirks as soon as you find a twisty piece of tarmac.
We've already declared the Aston Martin V12 Vantage S the best Aston in the line-up off the back of a drive on the twisty, sun-soaked tarmac of Palm Springs but its big test will be this first drive in the UK.
Porsche 911 GT3 vs Aston Martin V12 Vantage S vs Mercedes C63 AMG. Yep, This Video by Chris Harris is Awesome.
Driving the Porsche 911 GT3, Aston Martin V12 Vantage S, and Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Black Series is a special occasion indeed. Which is best for the track and on the road, and which one would you have?
2014 Aston Martin Vanquish Volante. Understated Aggression
Aston Martin Vanquish Volante.
Style & Speed In Stunning Wrapper.
Base price: $297,995
Drivetrain: 6.0 liter V12
Power: 565hp, 457lb/ft
Transmission: Six speed automatic
Performance: 0-60mph 4.1 sec
We like:
Prettiest convertible on the market.
Love that V12
It's a cruiser, not a sports car.
ASTON MARTIN VANQUISH VOLANTE
This car making business is not complicated. Build a beautiful car, stuff it with massively powerful engine and make sure it goes around corners.
Aston's new V12 is the key to this model. While it uses the same block as the outgoing V12, 75% of the internals are new. Improvements include fully variable intake and exhaust valve timing, hollow shafts, CMC-machined combustion chambers and larger throttle bodies, allowing the engineer to generate. 565hp and 457lb/ft of torque. It keeps the six speed automatic gearbox.
The chassis has been equally upgraded, but is still based on the aging VH frame. A mix of extruded aluminum box sections, stamped floor plans and added carbon fiber components and body parts complete the body upgrades. The soft top retracts in under 14 seconds. The interior is typical Aston Martin beautiful, way more charming than its competitors, they just know how to do it well.
The driving experience gives you that wind in your hair awesome feeling. The sound from the hunking big V12 is rather quiet at low speeds, but get aggressive with the throttle and those bypass flaps open in the exhaust to wake the entire neighborhood. Not a frenetic Ferrari wail, but a deeply satisfying V12 rumble that has a nice metallic rasp to it. Acceleration is quick with the automatic, but most oft he fun is in the higher rev ranges where's things really come alive.
The steering is tight and communicative and combined with the Volante's electrically adaptive suspension it is definitely tuned for convertible cruising rather than all out race track hooliganism, which suits this car perfectly.

UC Davis scraps Gmail pilot: Privacy levels 'unacceptable'
A major blow to Google; the University of California has ditched its pilot of its outsourced email service citing 'privacy issues' to its 30,000 student and staff users.
Written by Zack Whittaker, Writer-editor

Posted in iGeneration on May 6, 2010 | Topic: Cloud
Google has been hit with a major blow in regards to privacy by a leading US university, which this week ended their pilot of the outsourced Google Apps email system.
Peter Siegel, the University of California Davis chief information officer, sent a letter with support from senior staff to employees stating that the Gmail pilot to supply 30,000 students and staff would end before a full roll-out across its entire network, due to doubts in keeping the students' email and content secure and private.
According to InformationWeek which broke the story, some excerpts of this letter offer some revealing and interesting justifiable perspectives from the senior university figure:
[Many faculties] "...expressed concerns that our campus' commitment to protecting the privacy of their communications is not demonstrated by Google and that the appropriate safeguards are neither in place at this time nor planned for in the near future"
[This move by the university] "...by and large, it's not typical of what we're seeing in the market. We're seeing lots of schools move their students and faculty onto Gmail" .
In regards to the concerns over passing on or examining the contents of emails without the students' permission - which Gmail does to provide relevant advertisements.
"Outsourcing e-mail may not be in compliance with the University of California Electronic Communications Policy."
"Though there are different interpretations of these sections, the mere emergence of significant disagreement on these points undermines confidence in whether adopting Google's Gmail service would be consistent with the [aforementioned] policy".
[We continue to search for] ..."a more flexible and effective central e-mail system."
I half-criticised Microsoft a few months back for not embracing a similar social application to rival Google Buzz, which comes as part of the consumer Gmail experience. Yet with hindsight and especially in light of this new story and others, Buzz is a minefield for privacy related issues and this no doubt contributes to the reasons as to why the enterprise would want to avoid such issues.
Buzz was not part of the pilot which the university had rolled out, which Neowin had entirely misreported. The letter sent by the university CIO referenced a separate letter from the privacy commissioners from nearly a dozen countries which criticised Buzz, this was used merely as an example.
I think more than anything, trashy and poor reporting was more a clear outcome to this news story than Buzz being a contributing factor to the university's decision to cease the pilot.
Microsoft's equivalent service, Live@edu, which includes many of the features Hotmail currently has while integrating it as a university email and productivity account, is shooting ahead of Google in the outsourced email race.
While in this case, privacy appears to be a major factor taken into account by the university, as many institutions around the world are considered 'Microsoft campuses' with existing contracts and technologies in place, many are opting for Live@edu instead of Google Apps.
Will this move force other enterprise customers into adopting rival services such as Microsoft's Live@edu?

REMEMBER THE catch-all nomenclature "world music"? Similarly, if your idea of Indian music is reserved to cheesy trance CDs designed to put you in a Goa state of mind, or George Harrison's 1968 sitar symphony "Within You Without You," well, it's time to join the 21st century. Perhaps the greatest sitar player in the world under the age of 35, and known to be the first to internally mic the sitar in concert, Anoushka Shankar is a pioneer bridging the worlds of classical, pop, and electronic music. Like her father, Ravi Shankar, who indirectly popularized Eastern religions and Eastern thought in the West (not to mention your new yoga mat), Anoushka Shankar similarly challenges preconceptions about contemporary Indian music on her seventh album, Tracesof You (Deutsche Grammophon).
From the Western pop-meets-Indian sitar drone of the tracks with Jones, to blazing and evocative Indian classical pieces performed on sitar, piano, guitar, tabla, Ghatham, Udu, Mridangam, and Tanpura, to liberal improvisations stoked by Sawhney's programmed rhythms and a unique new instrument, The Hang, Traces of You was a challenge to realize, both musically and technically. Recorded at The Dairy in London, Big Fish Recording in Encinitas, California, Brooklyn Recording in Brooklyn, New York, and The Village Studio in New Delhi, the album's challenges began with finding the best way to record Shankar's sitar.
Jones' engineer, Matt Marinelli, shared the nitty-gritty details of recording Anoushka's sitar at Brooklyn Recording, where the vocalist's three songs were tracked.
Standard or traditional sitar miking includes one mic aimed at the bridge, positioned about a foot away, and another single mic, an equal distance overhead. At least that's what Shankar prefers. But even an Indian classical star of royal lineage can't always get what she wants.
On the songs where the entire group tracked live in the studio, the Indian musicians sat on the floor in traditional formation, while the piano, cello, drums, and The Hang were recorded at the musician's usual sitting heights. This too caused everyone involved to rethink notions of conventional setup.
Though much of the album was recorded live, and certainly most Westerners believe that music as challenging to perform as Indian classical would require that all the musicians involved record live in the same space, that wasn't necessarily the case for Traces of You.
"It was my plan to record live," Shankar says, "but it didn't work out what way. 'The Sun Won't Set' was recorded completely live with Norah in Brooklyn. But for 'Traces of You,' I recorded my sitar in one take live over a bed of sounds that Nitin had created on guitar in Pro Tools. Then the tabla was recorded in India. Things happened in pieces all over the world. On 'In Jyoti's Name,' a rough track was recorded live, then I redid some sitar parts and added more percussion. The percussion was overdubbed because it's all Pirashanna Thevaraja; he played three different instruments. There's no click on that song, but sometimes we did use a click on the slower songs. Some of the fast stuff had a click track, like 'Chasing Shadows.' That's one of the more live-sounding pieces on the record. The whole question-and-answer part at the end was recorded individually in different studios and cities.
And as for miking the rest of the classic Indian ensemble? After four classical albums and three non-classical albums, Anoushka Shankar is well versed in production techniques.
"For the tanpura," she explains, "we used a combination of one mic near the bridge then something further away to get the string sound close up and the bigger drone. For tabla, it depends, but one central mic from above usually. If you close-mic the two tabla drums, they will sound separate and not as one. You'll hear the high and low drum, when you want one unified drum sound with a high and low pitch. You can use a room mic to capture the resonance of the bass drum, and the ring of the high drum with the center higher mic.
The main recording sound of the sitar comes from the bottom of the instrument, and a detachable gourd sits at the top of the neck, which amplifies the sound further. "My dad always had a second gourd," Shankar recalls. "That was his secondary amplification in an acoustic, non-amplified, non-room-miked environment. The gourd adds weight to the sound but also to the instrument." Shankar began playing on a custom-made half-size sitar when she was seven. She still plays custom sitars with a neck of smaller-than-traditional length, and a lower gourd.
Another instrument that added to Traces of You's genre-bending qualities is The Hang. Half steel drum, half flying saucer, The Hang sounds like both a melodic and a percussive instrument. Over bubbling electronic rhythms and the droning sitar of "Maya," The Hang elucidates a gentle melody that rings as gently as a lullaby, but as conversationally as a marimba.
A professional since the age of ten with seven solo albums to her credit, including Anoushka, Anourag, Rise, Rise Remixes, Breathing Under Water, Traveller, and Traces of You, Shankar has also taken part in four live albums: Full Circle: Carnegie Hall 2000, Live at Carnegie Hall, Concert for George, Healing the Divide: A Concert for Peace and Reconciliation, and Live in Concert at the Nehru Park, New Delhi. She excels at music that is primarily of an oral tradition, handed down from student to teacher for hundreds, if not thousands, of years. Yet with all her experience, Shankar is like anyone else when it comes to marketing her music.
"I struggle with that," she admits. "I am better at making music than marketing it. Because I contest the need for labeling, it's hard to then explain it. I would say that mine is music for people who want something that isn't limited by those kinds of constraints. Again, a part of me feels that it's a dirty word, but on this record there are things that are more accessible than they normally would be. So for people who aren't used to the sound of a sitar, it's presented in a way that is more accessible. And with shorter song structures that don't tamper with the musical quality. To have a voice like Norah's helps to ground the music in a place of familiarity for some listeners.

Roast chicken sometimes gets overlooked in the summer, so I wanted to remind you how versatile it is and how perfect it can be for a simple summery meal.
Preheat the oven to 180ºC. In a pestle and mortar, bash up the garlic and basil leaves with a pinch of salt until you have a rough paste. Muddle in a lug of olive oil and a pinch of pepper.
Use your sharpest knife to make three slashes on each of the chicken legs, cutting right down to the bone. Tip the paste over the chicken and use your hands to really rub the paste into all of the slashes, nooks and crannies. Pop one lemon half in the cavity of the bird.
Place the chicken on a roasting tray, along with the other lemon half, and cook in the hot oven for 1 hour, or until it's crispy, golden and cooked through. To check, insert a knife into the thickest part of the thigh– the juices should run clear. Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes, loosely covered in tin foil and a clean tea towel to keep it warm.
Portion up the chicken, shredding the meat from the legs and slicing the breast meat. Carefully squeeze the roasted lemon halves into the juices in the tray, heat them up on the stove until hot then spoon over the carved meat before serving.

GGP reaffirms its industry-leading role as an environmentally responsible business in its 2016 sustainability report
CHICAGO, 2016-Jul-20 — /EPR Retail News/ — GGP, the owner and operator of 128 high-quality retail properties in the United States, released its annual sustainability report which reaffirms its industry-leading role as an environmentally responsible business and showcases the impacts of its efforts. The company's sustainability strategy includes programs in areas such as operations and efficiencies, development and property management, community engagement, and workplace development and training.
"Sustainability is not just a buzzword or isolated program for GGP, it is at the core of our values and is embedded into every part of our business," said Shobi Khan, chief operating officer at GGP. "We consistently strive to improve the efficiency of our properties and work side-by-side with each tenant to reduce our footprint and make substantial impacts to better the environment around us."
Among the many highlights from 2015 sustainability initiatives, GGP made tremendous headway in the company's five areas of focus:
Reduced overall carbon footprint by 23,200 metric tons of carbon dioxide; the equivalent of removing nearly 5,000 cars off the roads in the U.S.
Through the utilization of smart irrigation technology, reduced water consumption at properties by more than 64 million gallons; the equivalent of nearly 100 Olympic-sized swimming pools
Diverted over 54,300 tons of waste from landfills that could have otherwise filled more than 4,500 garbage trucks
Reduced electricity consumption by approximately 215 million kilowatt hours, which is enough electricity to power all of the home in Coral Gables, Florida for one year
Anticipated savings of approximately 44.5 million kilowatt hours per year by updating 500 inefficient roof-top common area heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) units with high-efficiency units
For a second consecutive year, GGP is recognized for making ecological, economic and social initiatives an integral part of its business with the highest possible real estate sustainability honor – a prestigious Green Star – by the Global Real Estate Sustainability Benchmark (GRESB). Furthermore, the company's solar generation projects currently underway will rank GGP among the top 10 U.S. companies by solar capacity, according to 2015 Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) rankings.
"It is encouraging to see the progress of GGP and the broader commercial real estate sector as sustainability issues are becoming increasingly important for retailers and the end-consumer," said Nils Kok, chief executive officer of GRESB. "Sustainability initiatives are directly reducing expenses and will lead to more competitive positioning of assets over the next couple of years."

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Derrick Morgan watched one of his interviews from the 2010 NFL Combine earlier this offseason, and it took him down memory lane.
Among the topics he discussed: Jared Allen, who was terrorizing quarterbacks at the time.
"I said I emulated my game off of him," Morgan said of Allen.
So it was quite a thrill for Morgan when he received some tips from the 12-year pro. Allen, who moved to Nashville last year, spent some time with the Titans earlier this offseason. He gave some of the team's pass rushers some advice heading into the 2018 season.
Allen racked up 136 career sacks while playing defensive end from 2004-2015 with the Chiefs, Vikings, Bears and Panthers. He was named to five Pro Bowls, and named All-Pro four seasons. He led the NFL in sacks in 2007 and 2011. He recorded a whopping 22 sacks in 2011.
Titans coach Mike Vrabel said Allen reached out wanting to help earlier this offseason, and he spent some time with the team.
"Anything we can get around our players that can help us, great," Vrabel said. "Having an idea of things he could do to help our team and to help our players, we were able to get him out here and work with some guys in the Phase 2 program where a lot of that is individual drills and position specific development.
Morgan, who led the Titans with 7.5 sacks last season and has 44 sacks in his eight-year career, said the experience helped him for sure.
Morgan said he's gained some valuable instruction this offseason as he heads into Year 9. Along with Vrabel, defensive coordinator Dean Pees has spent time with the team's linebackers, and new outside linebackers coach Shane Bowen has been hands-on and full of solid advice as well, Morgan said.
"We have so many good coaches," Morgan said. "Vrabel comes over there, coach Pees comes over there, and coach Shane Bowen. So it is good. Everybody is interacting, and everybody is engaging and it is going to pay dividends.

One of our perimeter security systems is called Flexiguard™ which can detect intruders before they enter a property and then give the alarm receiving centre an early warning of attack. Usually mounted on fencing of some kind, it has been installed in countless industrial and commercial facilities around the world including prisons, storage depots and even national monuments such as the Pyramids of Giza.
Perhaps not surprising then that we receive enquiries from people who think we are fencing specialists! It may seem a bit of a generalisation but it's a mistake easily made. When you look at perimeter fencing, chances are you won't notice the technology installed within/around it, at least not at first glance. So we are used to clarifying this and generally say 'no, we do not manufacture fencing – we sit on the fence instead!'. This is what Flexiguard™ does – it literally sits on the fence and turns it into effective perimeter security.
So whilst the phrase 'sitting on the fence' might for some people mean having a non-committal approach, it could not be further from the truth for us here at Advanced Perimeter Systems Ltd. Our commitment to effective security could not be stronger.
