Jack E. Burke
Obituary of Jack E. Burke
We lost an honorable man, Jack Burke, on May 8, 2019. Born in Rutland, Vermont 87 years ago, he lived his life serving others. He was devoted to Beverly and married for 64 years. He graduated from the University of Vermont and followed a heart-felt commitment to the success of that institution, serving two full terms on the Board of Trustees and as Chair of the Alumni Fund.
In 1956, after completing a 2 year ROTC commitment with the US Army, which took him and Beverly to Germany, Jack began an outstanding career with IBM. He achieved accolades such as becoming one of 5 regional managers nationwide, and posting him to Hong Kong as director of operations for South East Asia.
During his life on Hilton Head Island, he helped initiate the beginning of the Boys and Girls Club and served on its board for 8 years. He served on the board for the local water and sewer authority for many years as water commissioner of PSD #1.
Jack will always be remembered as a caring, compassionate and loving husband, father, and friend.
Jack is survived by his wife, Beverly Chase Burke; two sons, Timothy and Peter and their families; two brothers, Douglas Burke and Barry Burke and their families; Beverly's sister, Carol Allen, and her family; and the family of Jack's late sister, Connie Omland.
There will be a Mass of Christian Burial for Jack on Wednesday, May 15th, at 1 PM at St. Francis by the Sea Catholic Church, 45 Beach City Rd, HHI, SC 29926.
In lieu of sending any flowers, please consider making donations to the Boys and Girls Club of Hilton Head Island.

"...original songs that are Jewish and universal..."
Religious longing takes a profoundly personal turn in Every Day, by Dallas-area cantorial soloist Susan Colin. Ms. Colin brings a smoky, spiritual Joan Baez-like quality to original songs that are at once Jewish and universal in their joyous embrace of the mysterious divine.
Most of her inspiration for lyrics springs from the Bible...she also uses words by writer Robin Paglia-Dennis and draws on a Native American prayer - the haunting "I am with you still," which reminds us that, like God, loved ones we cannot see make their love manifest in the daily miracles of creation.
The CD offers a heady mix of folk, Klezmer, jazz and blues, often backed by warm, eclectic instrumentals deftly performed by local musicians. - Nancy Churnin, Dallas Morning News
Jewish News of Greater Phoenix
Her voice is a delight to listen to as she celebrates God.
The new album by singer/songwriter Susan Colin is a lovely and soothing addition to any Jewish household. Colin's voice is a delight to listen to as she celebrates God on tracks like "I am with you still" and "Twilight nigun." She draws on varied musical traditions including jazz, Klezmer and Latin music to give each track its own unique sound.
Daniel Solyon, Baptist Worship Music Foundation
Your love for God is evident throughout.
I really enjoyed listening to your CD, Every Day. Your love for God is evident throughout. I enjoyed the experience of your music making. Thanks very much, God bless you.
David-Anthony Curtis, Kabbalah4All.com
Amazing and Inspiring!
This CD is a breath of fresh air. I have already bought three more copies for family and friends. Susan's beautiful and inspiring voice is mixed with a great array of accompaniment. I plan on playing many of these songs for our Kabbalah study group.

Poole-based property specialist Richard Carr has promised to deliver a world class marina and hotel if the £100 million plans to redevelop the current Salterns Marina are approved.
Richard has worked on a number of Poole developments during his 30 years in the property sector, with examples available in the 'Development' section of his website.
Acting for Salterns Marina, Richard Carr hopes to have plans for the redevelopment work with Poole planners by the end of the year and if successful look to start work this time next year.
Speaking to the Bournemouth Echo, Richard said: "Effectively what it brings Poole and the area is world class status.
Development Specialist Richard Carr is spearheading the re-development of Salterns Marina in Poole, which is set to receive a £100m facelift if plans are approved by the local council.
News of the facelift, which has been developed by Richard, proved popular with both local media in Poole and industry publications across the UK.
Revealed on Monday, the news has been published on 10 website with links to all the articles available via the 'Press' section of Richard's website.
The news broke on Saturday morning via the Bournemouth Echo, who wrote about Richard Carr's £100m development.

The complexity, costs and risks associated with employee benefits pose an increasing threat to business performance. Yet benefits have long been a bulwark of the employee deal, and a competitive necessity for recruiting and retaining the right people. An enterprise-wide strategy for making thoughtful benefit decisions and managing those benefits you choose to provide gives you a framework to meet employee needs at a cost you can afford.
Towers Watson benefit consultants have deep experience working with organisations of all types and sizes. We have worked closely with clients to develop some of the most advanced benefit design techniques currently in use.

Bipartisan Low-Income Water Assistance Bill Officially Unveiled
(November 6, 2018) - The Low-Income Water Customer Assistance Programs Act (S.3564) was formally unveiled October 31 at a press conference in Baltimore by Sen. Cardin (D-MD). Baltimore Director of Public Works Rudy Chow, a NACWA Board Member, spoke at the event alongside Sen. Cardin, Baltimore Mayor Catherine E. Pugh, and other local officials and stakeholders. Sen. Cardin and his Republican cosponsor, Sen. Wicker (R-MS) issued a joint press release to mark the occasion.
In his remarks, Sen. Cardin outlined the concept behind S.3564: a federal partnership to "help lower income families deal with the cost of their water, therefore taking some of the pressure off of the rate system so that you can use it a little more freely in order to modernize the system, knowing there's protection for lower income families". He said the bill will support creative solutions to deal with water affordability challenges around the country. Sen. Cardin also emphasized his belief that water infrastructure needs to be a central part of the federal infrastructure investment conversation as Congress continues discussing a broad infrastructure investment package next year.
Director Chow noted that the need to reinvest in water infrastructure is greater than ever, yet many ratepayers struggle to pay their daily economic needs and afford higher water rates. He explained that S.3564 would allow communities "the opportunity to develop and implement a low-income water assistance program tailored to their population's needs" and that such a program could "support innovation and test a new generation of water bill assistance programs".
As reported recently, NACWA has been a strong proponent of a federal low-income water assistance program, helping introduce the concept to Congress in recent years and coordinating a joint letter of support for the S.3564. NACWA has also issued a press release.
NACWA does not anticipate movement on this bill this Congress, but expects it will be reintroduced early next year to be part of what will hopefully be a robust, bipartisan infrastructure investment discussion in the new Congress. Contact Kristina Surfus, NACWA Legislative Director to discuss.

Aircraft manufacturers accelerate biofuel commercialization
Boeing Commercial Airplanes President and CEO Jim Albaugh, Embraer Commercial Aviation President Paulo Cesar Silva and Airbus President and CEO, Tom Enders, shake hands on the aviation biofuel MoU
Three of the world's biggest aircraft manufacturers have set aside their differences in an effort to accelerate the development of biofuel for commercial aviation. In a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed this week, Boeing, Airbus and Embraer say they have agreed to work together on the development of drop-in, affordable aviation biofuels that will help the aviation industry reduce its carbon footprint.
The agreement will see the three companies using their combined might to attempt to influence governments and lawmakers, biofuel producers, and airlines in an effort to "support, promote and accelerate the availability of sustainable new jet fuel sources."
Along with improvements in aircraft deign, engine efficiency and air traffic management, the companies see biofuels as a necessary component of the aviation industry's efforts to meet self-imposed CO2 reduction targets, which aim for neutral growth from 2020, and a 50% net reduction in CO2 emissions based on 2005 levels by 2050.
"The production and use of sustainable quantities of aviation biofuels is key to meeting our industry's ambitious CO2 reduction targets," said Airbus President and CEO Tom Enders. "We are helping to do this through R+T (research & technology), our expanding network of worldwide value chains and supporting the EU commission towards its target of four per cent of biofuel for aviation by 2020."
Boeing, Airbus and Embraer have all conducted biofuel flights and say that by working together they will be able to speed aviation biofuel development and application of the technology faster than would be possible by acting independently.

YES!! CHEAP BIOFUEL = MORE FLYING!!
Slowburn March 24, 2012 04:06 PM
The whole carbon footprint thing is part of a proven fraud. While I support waste stream based bio-fuel, crop based bio-fuel is a real stupid idea. You can create high quality room temperature liquid fuel with the right catalysts, electricity, water, and air.
Russ Pinney March 24, 2012 06:46 PM
Biofuel is an environmental disaster. It survives through subsidies: each barrel of biofuel costs almost a full barrel of fuel to create. Worse still, it commandeers premium agricultural land mass - typically rainforest or valuable food crop land. Biofuel is a green-washing scam - as elites who all have more than enough to eat we get to feel good about 'reducing our carbon footprint' when in fact we are doing quite the reverse.
egiordanelli March 24, 2012 09:30 PM
Anyone is thinking in the future Price of food and the consequences?
Mark Eastaugh March 25, 2012 01:33 AM
One would expect people to be smarter than this.
There may be a future for biofuels, but right now with the use of food crops for the purpose, all that happens is that the price of grains, sugar, starch etc escalates greatly (wonderful for the farmers and traders of course) but more people now have to live on less food.
The only thing worse than the 'political programming' to which we are all subjected, is that 'big business' follows along with the latest 'fads and absolutely impractical rorts' out of political correctness.
You'd think that somewhere amongst them would be a great leader who'd step up and state the obvious:
"This is silly, impractical, and a waste of everyone's time and money".
Lindsey Roke March 25, 2012 09:37 PM
OK so many of the first generation biofuels used - or displaced food crops - but that doesn't mean they have to. For example, there are biofuel technologies starting with anything from forestry waste and CO2 from steel production to algae that can be grown in sewage oxidation ponds. Even if you don't like accepting that global warming is real, it imust be hard to avoid the fact that ripping off the world's diminishing supply of fossil fuels at the current rate is unsustaianble.
Hmmm... March 26, 2012 05:30 PM
Biofuel can be manufactured using wood biproducts; why do we persist in using food as a source and then subsidizing the production because it is highly inefficient? The answer is that most people are just like cattle or sheep, happily grazing until the day that they take you to the slaughterhouse and end your miserable existence. We have so much oil available, and this carbon demon is pure hype, yet we continue to be spoon fed this theory that the world is coming to an end unless we diminish our carbon footprint. It's just so ludicrous and laughable that it's hard to believe the number of fools who believe in it.
PeetEngineer April 2, 2012 05:18 PM
For the uninformed, aircraft biofuel is unlikely to come from food sources like the ethanol fuel being made from corn, the current research is using jatropha oil and camelina plants, which have less arable land impact.


This life is filled with many faces.
Some make us laugh, while others make us cry.
Some faces bring a much needed smile to our own.
As the years pass, I become more aware of those who are making their mark in this world.
And this family here... they are definitely life changers.
~The bible would describe "selflessness" as love.
I feel completely honored to have had the opportunity to capture this family.
"She always says that about everyone she photographs".
And it's true... I do.
But I truly do feel so blessed to capture these families who become friends.
So, I just want to say, "Thanks for the opportunity!"
This session, like all the others, never fails to bring a smile to my face!
due to a much needed rain.
These images were taken at three different locations.


At two o'clock in the morning on Monday, April 5th, I received a text message telling me the news. There had been a horrible electrical fire at 137 Thompson St, where Thompson Chemists is located. The damage was extensive and everything was lost. Thankfully, the fire was contained and did not spread to any of the building's residents, nor was anyone hurt due to the sixty phenomenal firefighters who responded to the call.
It was hard to do but we kept our heads high!
When I arrived five hours later, the scene completely devastated me. The ceiling was stripped away, broken glass and debris were strewn about and harsh black burns encircled the store. Everyone stood outside looking at the damage in silent, tearful horror. We shared our grief and dried each others tears in this moment of sadness. Then with Gary and Jolie's incredible know-how and each other's reassurances, we put our game faces on and went straight to work. Over the next week and half, each individual–Imani, Nina, David, Bryan, Ashlee, Jazmin, Emily, Angie, Chad, Irit, Allison, Vasily, Christy, Cindy and Gus– has pulled their weight and come together to work with the Alonys' in rebuilding the amazing little pharmacy that they founded 16 years ago.
It has been hard work, but we are all hard workers. 137 Thompson is evacuated and has temporarily moved a block away to 449 West Broadway. Fortunately, we had managed to save all our patient information and so we are fully functional and are able to dispense prescriptions. 137 Thompson will be rebuilt and hopefully reopened in a few months time and 449 West Broadway will hopefully become Thompson Alchemists; an exciting project the Alonys' have been working on for quite some time.
This Sunday will mark the two-week anniversary since Thompson Chemists burnt down. The store and its' employees have since rebounded in ways that I never thought possible. It is mind-blowing the progress that we have made in the past week and half, and I have been completely moved in seeing the extent of support and kindness given to us from the community and each other. We extend our deepest, warmest, most heartfelt thanks to all the awesome neighborhood boys and girls that helped us move into the new store at 449 West Broadway, to all of our wonderful friends that have graciously donated supplies, and most importantly, to all of our loyal customers and their kind words. We have the absolute best people with us and for that we are so beyond grateful. We love you!

HomeNewsTrendsThe 10 most important labour market and recruitment trends for 2023 (part 2/3)
The 10 most important labour market and recruitment trends for 2023 (part 2/3)
What are the most important labour market and recruitment trends for 2023? In this second of three articles, expert Geert-Jan Waasdorp looks ahead. 'Sometimes you don't need a lot of budget, you need guts to try something different.'
Geert-Jan Waasdorp on December 14, 2022 Average reading time: 3 min
Do you want to be able to recruit successfully in 2023? Then it's not just down to having the right set of in-house recruiters, but also how you organize the process. In the current labour market, it appears as if crisis and panic are the constant variables. But if nothing is certain anymore, let recruitment be the oasis of peace, since it is the best-equipped field that knows how to deal with constant uncertainty. My ten predictions for 2023 are just about that. It's about whether you need to set up a professional recruitment apparatus, whether you've got an agency or corporate background.
Read the first three trends here
#4: Scale down on your 'necessary' channels
A hammer sees every problem as a nail. In recent decades, the recruitment industry has been dominated by LinkedIn, Indeed and employment agencies. Amidst a wall of staff shortages, a scarcity of talent and bad responses to vacancies – we have to resort to other solutions. Are you looking for a shoemaker? Then your best bet may be to spread actual, real-life flyers. Are you looking for technical talent? You could set up a referral program, such as organising a ladies night for their wives. Do you want to find students? Then work with platform technology, ensure you're visible on campus in study-rooms.
I prefer to focus on referral and out in the field.
More agencies, sourcing, interim recruiters, recruiter seats, higher budgets and more advertising? I hate to break it to you, but it isn't going to solve your recruiting issues. They've become the proverbial hammer that is trying to turn any problem it finds into a nail. For me, I prefer to focus on referral and out in the field. Close your laptop and be where the candidates are. At events, hardware stores, in schoolyards or even in the supermarket. Or… your own workplace.
It's about active talent management before calling every problem a 'sourcing problem'.
Internal mobility is the number one sourcing channel in Belgium – and looks set to be the secret weapon for recruitment success. In many countries, including my country The Netherlands, we have a real tendency to look on the outside first for external candidates. But what we're seeing is that companies and countries in which HR pursues an active strategy for retention and further training of current employees – are generally much less reliant on outside recruitment. It's about active talent management before calling every problem a 'sourcing problem'. Internal promotion and career development is one of the strongest weapons for retention and more productivity and effectiveness of the organisation.
#5: Candidate as the centre
We're all being bombarded with the importance of the employee journey and candidate experience. And I'm not against putting the candidate first, but I prefer to talk about the candidate as the centre. To me, that is a different approach and let me explain why. We are all used to UberEats and Amazon delivering with speed. In many ways, that speed showcases the level of service at which we want to be served. If you're interested in something, you're used to it landing on your doorstep a day later… at the very least.Back to recruitment – when a candidate is interested in a job, they want to schedule an interview immediately rather than having to wait until a recruiter's finally got time.
Help them flip the script: provide questions they can ask the hiring manager.
In addition to that speed, he or she wants to be treated equally in a transparent process and get a real view on the organisation through potential colleagues. These are all very reasonable questions – yet most candidate processes don't offer a single answer to these questions. Instead, it is still filled with traditional, time-consuming procedures. Try sending an introductory video from a hiring manager or recruiter to the candidate. Send the candidate cheat sheet with questions that he or she will get during the interview. And help them flip the script: provide questions they can ask the hiring manager. Changing your recruitment procedures is only possible if you really view the candidate as the centre.
#6: Employer impact
Source: Tony's Chocolonely
Out of sight, out of mind. Being an unknown to a candidate handicaps your chances of recruitment them tremendously in a tight labour market. No real time spent on an employer brand? Then you're going to struggle in this market – because temporary employment agencies jump on any talent that shows any type of willingness to move. After they've reeled in their nets, there won't be much left for the rest of the market. Building an attractive and well-known employer brand takes at least 18 to 24 months. If you are going to invest now, count on spending at least three-monthly salaries per person you want to hire in the next three years. And even then, you will only reap the rewards in about one and a half years… at the earliest. That's why it's so crucial you think about an employer impact strategy.
Build a distinctive employer brand and showcase to candidates that you're exceptionally good at one thing.
Impact is the common denominator here. Build a distinctive employer brand and showcase to candidates that you're exceptionally good at one thing. Subsequently implementing consistently it in the application process, the website, sponsoring, events, terms of employment or leadership can be enough. For example, try sending the contract before the candidate applies. Or print the contract on a chocolate bar wrapper. Or pay candidates to apply. Sometimes you don't need a lot of budget… but you do need guts to try something different. Then you create an environment in which your target group can no look beyond you.

Saori Banners... and a Skunk Flag.
Spent the majority of today weaving Saori banners, one with sari silk, one with fabric strips and one with various yarns.
Also completed today was this prayer flag, which was inspired by a skunk (or two) that has frequented my yard in recent times.
All four projects woven on the same warp. White stripe for skunk banner was removed after completion and replaced with black for the other three pieces.

Imawa no Michi no Alice
Imawa no Michi no Alice review
mouthpiece15
Imawa no Michi no Alice, or Alice in Border Road is a spin-off/sequel to Imawa no Kuni no Alice, or Alice in Border Land. Throughout this review, when comparing/refereting one another I'll mention them as "Road" and "Land".
Alice in Border Road is a Stand-Alone story, using the story and elements set on Land and using them to create something completely new. All of the characters are different between stories, and despite using some common elements, the ideia behind Land and Road are incredibly different. In Land a couple thousand people gather every night in hopes of finishing death games to survive longer in Borderland, a destroyed Tokyo. When finishing these games they receive cards, which they don't really know the meaning of.
In Road, 12 people find themselves in a destroyed Kyoto, each with a card, and try their best to find themselves a meaning and a objective to what they are doing there.
Road can be enjoyed on it's own, but the consequences of what is happening and why are in direct consequence with the plot twist in Land, which means that if you didn't read that one first, if you read it afterwards your enjoyment may be reduced.
I wouldn't say that this story is overall better than Land, but it does have some points that I think are better. First of all, we are not introduced with a bunch of characters that are only there to be cannon fodder to whatever new game is happening. In here, the entire cast of characters are introduced from the get go, and everything that happens after that is consequence of the actions of one or more of those 12 characters. We get to see friendships be created and destroyed as characters start growing and relationships start changing, trust and doubt ever flowing between them. Other thing that you may notice is that, despite the writer being the same, the artist is different. Now I understand that some people may preffer the art in Land, but I do think that Road's art is better and more clean. It's not amazing, but it's an improvement.
Having that in mind, the single thing that can make or break this story is the characters. And it's here that I think Alice in Border Road loses the chance to be better than Land. By no means are the characters bad, but most of them are decent enough and there's enough variety in them to provide interesting interactions between them, which is the most important, but there isn't really any character that stands out as being particularly good, nor their past that interesting, which is something I did think Land had here and there.
But all in all, to simply say that Alice in Border Road is worst than Alice in Borderland is making this manga an injustice. It dared do something completely different from the original source and it was a risk that for the most part payed off, and on it's own it's a pretty entertaining manga.

Apple set to launch new MacBook Pro with bigger screen, new keyboard
Wed, Nov 13, 2019 - 6:56 AM
Apple plans to debut a new MacBook Pro laptop with a larger screen and revamped keyboard as soon as Wednesday, according to people familiar with the situation.
[SAN FRANCISCO] Apple plans to debut a new MacBook Pro laptop with a larger screen and revamped keyboard as soon as Wednesday, according to people familiar with the situation.
This will be the first major update to the MacBook Pro line since it was redesigned three years ago. The new, brighter screen will come in a 16-inch version, up from the current 15-inch option, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing unannounced products. The display will likely appeal to video and photo editors, gamers and software developers.
The new keyboard is designed to be more reliable. Some MacBook laptops have been criticised by users in recent years for sticky keys and other problems, prompting Apple to start a keyboard repair program.
The 16-inch MacBook Pro will replace the current 15-inch model, which starts at US$2,399.
The new laptop will cost about the same and is expected to go on sale this week, the people said. It won't be the last Mac launch of the year. Apple plans to release the revamped Mac Pro desktop computer in December, one of the people said. An Apple spokesman declined to comment.
The Mac continues to be a steady seller for Apple, generating roughly US$25 billion in annual revenue. This is despite the company pushing more-portable devices such as the iPad and iPad Pro.
The MacBook Pro laptop is Apple's highest-end portable computer and it is differentiated by faster processors and larger screens. The new models will have main processors from Intel, not Apple-made chips that it plans to add to at least some computers as early as next year, Bloomberg News has reported.
The MacBook Pro and Mac Pro will cap a year of Apple product releases that also included the iPhone 11 line, Apple Watch Series 5 and AirPods Pro.


In just under five decades, Bangladesh has made great strides to become a more equitable nation. The South Asian country has drastically improved income distribution, education, healthcare and democracy.
'"Whether it is through building up our economy, strengthening our NHS or enriching our culture, the contribution of British Bangladeshis is immense".
"Despite the impressive gains Bangladesh has made as a nation, there is still much room for improvement in the area of human rights. Many bloggers and journalists have been persecuted, discriminated against and even killed for holding varying religious and political beliefs. This reality defies the principle of freedom of expression and stifles diversity and media scrutiny. Bangladesh must act to address these shortfalls."
Bangladeshis make up one of Britain's fastest growing communities. March 26th, 2017 marked the 46th anniversary of Bangladesh's independence from Pakistan.


Definition of typography, n. 1. the work of setting and arranging types and of printing from them. 2. the general appearance of printed matter.
I love all forms of typography. Anything with letters and numbers, yes please! Subway art is a very hot design trend right now. These signs take their cue from the scrolls used on subways and buses in the 50's and 60's to announce the next stop along the route. They traditionally have a black background with cream letters.
Last week I finally decided I needed to whip up a little subway art of my own. This one is for a very special person, my son Ryan. And it has a very special theme, his favorite places at Penn State. We are a family of Penn State grads and this is a place we hold near and dear to our hearts.
The only purchase I made for this project was a 24" x 36" artist's canvas (Michael's 50% off!). I do not have a fancy vinyl letter cutting machine, so I went old school and used a set of 2" stencils I already had in a very traditional font for subway art - helvetica. The first step was to paint the canvas black with good old acrylic paint.
I had already asked Ryan for a list of his favorite Penn State locations and I also included the addresses of where he lived while he was a student.
Because I'm very visual, I quickly penciled out the words on a roll of art paper to be sure I liked the order and spacing.
Then I used chalk to draw lines on the canvas so that everything would be straight. The chalk just rubs right off when you are finished, although I decided that it actually gave the canvas a nice aged look, so when I was completely finished, I did rub a bit of chalk over the entire canvas. I also discovered that good old black paint and a canvas make for a quick and easy chalkboard!
Then it was just a matter of stenciling the words, letter by letter.
So as not to smudge the wet paint, I moved around a bit from line to line.
And that was it - a personalized subway art sign with special meaning made just for Ryan!
Ryan lives in a very cool rowhouse in the historic neighborhood of Federal Hill in downtown Baltimore - picture brick walls and beautiful wide plank wood floors. Most of the art on his walls are photographs taken on his amazing hiking adventures with his Penn State friends. I think this piece will fit right in!
Happy 24th Birthday Ryan, with lots of love!
I hope you have a chance to relax on the roof today and enjoy the view!
And be sure to check out the Cottage Charm Giveaway Event going on during the month of May! I'm giving away one of my Burlap and Ruffles table runners!
What a special gift for your very handsome son!
that looks so fabulous! it will look awesome in a rowhome! what a thoughful gift, sharon.
what a great gift-i knew right away where it was from since it was your art! the boyfriend would say it needs to have the crowbar, the saloon, and this cover band they loved up there called velveeta.
That is a neat gift for a young adult and will look "cool" in his space. I would love it too in my little kitchen space. Great inspiration!
I love that sign! I had tons of stencils from my crafting days and can't seem to find them!
Love this- I love this style in the CB2 catalogs..great idea!
I like this and I am thinking I may make one with special places my husband I love, to remind us of our younger child free (carefree) days! Thanks for the inspiration!
this really looks like a do-able project. nice work!!
I love your subway art...it looks vintage and authentic.
I much prefer the stencil letters to the vinyl for this. Pretty!
I posted this on facebook! That is how much I love it!
What a special and meaningful gift for your son.
Thanks for continuing to link to the party - even during my horrible computer virus downtime!

In this tutorial I will teach the Photoshop beginners an easy way to paint ribbons.
The tutorial has been written by using Photoshop 7, some differences may appear with the tools used if you use a previous version.
An advice : work on a large render. The more large it is, the more having smooth ribbons will be easy.
Start by sketching out your ribbons on a new layer with a smooth brush.
Pay attention to have smooth ribbons, not too jagged, otherwise you will have more correcting work afterwards.
The color isn't important now, you can easily modify it afterwards.
Carefully erase the parts of your ribbons that goes out of your character with a small smooth brush. Don't hesitate to zoom in to be the more picky you can.
This is the most important step. You will have to add shadows and lights on the ribbons in order to give them some depth. You will have to pay a lot of attention to the lighting of your scene / character.
Start by putting your layer's opacity to 70% so you can see the shadow zones on your character. Take the burning tool with a soft medium sized brush and add shadows on the ribbons. Try to make them fit to the character's shadows.
To give some more brilliance to your ribbons, use the dodge tool, with a small sized smooth brush and proceed in the same way as for the burning tool.

Military Balance and Partition
Saturday 26 September 2009, by P.K. Nigam
A small number of Englishmen (about two lacs) ruled India, a vast country with a population of 400 million. How could they do it? Their strategy was military control and creation of vested interests bound up with British rule. The princes and zamindars were given privileges and they wanted the British to rule India. After a few decades of the Great Revolt of 1857, the British became pro-Muslim to convert them to support British rule. Wavell considered Muslims loyalist like princes.
According to Lord Roberts, the Commander-in-Chief in the beginning of the 20th century, "Respect based on fear was key to rule in India. Remove the fear and respect will soon disappear." British Prime Minister Lord Salisbury added that British rule depended on resort to force enormously enhanced by the reputation of invincibility. The British kept aloof from Indians. But the racial superiority shown by the English Sahibs created revulsion among Indians gradually. Gandhiji's non-cooperation movements restored self-respect to Indians. They did not feel inferior to Englishmen as they did earlier. The easy Japanese victories in South-East Asia and Burma during December 1941 to May 1942 destroyed the myth of European invincibility. The record of the British in Malaya and Burma was extremely poor, though the British propaganda kept the truth hidden from most of the world.
During the pre-war period, the British had a strategy to suppress the mutiny of Indian soldiers should it occur. The proportion of British soldiers to Indian soldiers was one to two. The British troops were kept inside the country to serve as internal security troops. The greater part of Indian troops was part of field army for service abroad and on the frontier. The more effective weapons were with the British and not given to Indians. Commissioned Officers, the brain of the army, were mostly British. All this changed due to the exigencies of war and the British desire to save their own blood. To fight against the Japanese, the British created an Indian Army of two-and-a-half million men. The Indians had to be given modern arms: the number of Indian officers greatly increased, the proportion of Muslims to Hindus changed. Before the war, more than 50 per cent of Indian troops were Muslims. The figure fell to 25 per cent at the war end. The British had become too confident due to their experience in WW I. In the prewar period the British had kept a fair number of Sikhs in the group of non-Muslim soldiers, as Hindus mainly were asking for freedom. Thus the British could not militarily control India, even if the Muslims joined them. The number of British soldiers in India was still 70,000. When General Wavell travelled with Churchill in 1943 on the way to the US, he rebuked Wavell for creating a Frankenstien by putting modern weapons in the hands of Sepoys. Wavell still believed in the loyalty of Indian Sepoys and disagreed. He thought that Churchill had a 19th century mind. Churchill, the politician, was correct.
Many events happened during WW II and immediately after the war end. The 'Quit India' movement was very widespread and stronger than the 1857 Revolt. This fact was suppressed during the war period by the British. Subhash Chandra Bose raised the Indian National Army in 1943. Though the INA could not free India by invasion, the British began to have doubts about the loyalty of the Indian Army. To teach a lesson to the Indians, the British put on trial three Indian National Army officers. This boomeranged and affected the Indian soldiers. Britain, France and Holland had to give up their rule in South-East Asia during the war. To justify their own desire for rule, the British wanted their rule restored in South-East Asia. They had become too weak to fulfill their wish to rule again Indo China and Indonesia. They could not take surrender from the Japanese at the war end. Britain sent Indian troops there to take surrender from Japanese. After taking surrender from the Japanese, the British commander used them to suppress the freedom movements there. The Congress said that Indian troops were not mercenaries and should not be used to restore colonial rule there. Commander-in-chief Auchinleck feared that Indian troops might not obey orders to fire on the natives. It is important to note that it was Atlee and his Labour Government, which sent Indian troops to Indo-China and Indonesia to suppress the independence in these countries. This proves that Atlee and Labour Party were imperialist and not in favour of giving independence to India. The contrary is wrongly believed by millions in India even now. Realising that Indian troops were no more loyal to Britain, Wavell wrote in December 1945 to the Home Government in a top-secret letter a blueprint of partition and Pakistan, which was needed in the interest of the worldwide British Empire. The aim was to protect West Asia from Soviet expansion to the Indian Ocean and the oilwells there.
When theCabinet delegation came to India on March 23, 1946 with the partition plan based on Wavell's letter, Wavell wrote to them on March 29 a military appreciation about the situation in India, pointing out the weak British position, and the trump card of ability to blockade India to prevent essential supplies like petrol, kerosene etc. The appreciation was correct. At the same time he started making 'Break-Down' plans in case the Indian Army revolted. Wavell wanted to use military force to impose his partition plan if the Congress did not agree. The British Government rejected Wavell's Break-Down plans, as use of military to partition India, in their opinion, would have created deep enmity feeling against Britain. It wanted to show that partition was due to disagreement between the Congress and Muslim League. Hence, Atlee decided to replace Wavell with Mountbatten in December 1946. He fired Wavell in March 1947 for repeatedly insisting on adoption of his Break-Down plans (though Azad had incorrectly said that Wavell resigned due to disagreement with the British Government).
In the meantime, Patel had decided in December 1946 to agree to partition to save India. In January 1947, he and V.P. Menon made a partition plan, which was in the hands of Mountbatten before coming to India in March 1947. On February 17, 1947, Patel told Wavell that he was prepared to let Muslims have Pakistan in Western Punjab, Sindh and NWFP, if they desired it and East Bengal. The final partition was carried out almost according to Patel's plan. Mountbatten was able to show that partition was due to agreement between Jinnah and the Congress, though the British were opposed to partition.

This is top a of the line handpiece purge and cleaning unit. It has been our experience that doctors using the W&H Assistina, especially those using W&H high speed handpieces, have seen consistent results helping with more efficient operation over the long term and reduced visits to repair. One of the recurring expenses with these units is liquid cleaner, which is now available from sources other than the manufacturer. Look for foaming type cleaners which seem to do a better job, and always check to ensure the purge function of the unit is working properly, expelling excess lubrication and debris as required prior to autoclave.
Adapters may also be purchased to ensure your W&H Assistina can be utilized with other brand handpieces as well. This function ensures that all handpieces in your practice can receive the same, total cleaning and lubrication offered to your W&H handpieces. Again, look for the foaming type cleaner and lubrication to make sure you get the most from your W&H Assistina unit.
