«Піна. Мрії що танцюють» — У фільмі показаний експеримент німецької танцівниці і хореографа Піни Бауш, в якому відібрані школярі від 14 до 18 років без будь-якого акторського або танцювальної освіти та досвіду для участі у виставі "Kontakthof" і ми спостерігаємо за десятьма місяцями їх інтенсивної роботи.

Зміст
Це дивовижна подорож у світ великої німецької танцівниці і хореографа Піни Бауш. Нам вдасться поспостерігати за її сміливим і незвичайним експериментом, для якого зі звичайних шкіл Вупперталя (місто, відоме своїм підвісним трамвайчиком, де Піна керувала своєю балетною трупою) відібрали 40 звичайних школярів від 14 до 18 без будь-якого акторського або танцювального досвіду. Щосуботи підлітки приходять на репетиції вистави-експерименту Kontakthof, де відбувається таємниче перевтілення звичайних людей в акторів театру Піни Бауш. Вони демонструють неймовірну мужність у виконанні цієї постановки, в якій танцювальний клас перетворюється на справжнє поле битви статей: ворожнеча, флірт, болісний і завжди заплутаний пошук кохання. До прем'єри їх чекають 10 непростих місяців роботи. За цей час юні танцюристи, ще такі сором'язливі й нерішучі, завмираючи від жаху, повинні подолати страх, заборони, невпевненість у собі, щоб зробити цей спектакль. Це шлях перетворення незграбних, але таких справжніх каченят у прекрасних лебедів, здатних на найвищі і сильні почуття.

Stephen Miller Tests Positive as White House Outbreak Grows

On Tuesday evening, senior administration officials confirmed that Stephen Miller, Mr. Trump's top speechwriter and a policy adviser, had tested positive for the coronavirus, joining a growing list of Mr. Trump's close aides who have the virus.
"Over the last five days I have been working remotely and self-isolating, testing negative every day through yesterday," Mr. Miller said in a statement. "Today, I tested positive for Covid-19 and am in quarantine."
Mr. Miller is married to Katie Miller, Vice President Mike Pence's communications director. A senior administration official said Ms. Miller, who contracted the virus this spring and returned to work in May, was tested Tuesday morning and was negative for any new infection.
On Tuesday, many White House offices were empty as officials stayed home to wait out the infectious period from an outbreak of the coronavirus within the building and among people who had been there.
President Trump was in the White House residence, convalescing, as a number of advisers and other officials stayed home, either because they had contracted the coronavirus or had been near people who did.
The White House communications and press shops were bereft of people. The White House press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, announced on Monday that she had tested positive. Two other press office aides have also contracted the virus, and two more aides on Tuesday were said to have tested positive, people familiar with the results said.
The outbreak in the White House, which has extended to some lawmakers on Capitol Hill, has raised concerns in the city that surrounds it. Washington, D.C., which has managed to bring infection rates down in recent weeks through preventive laws and high rates of compliance, has almost no control over the federal government.
The city reported 105 new coronavirus cases on Tuesday, the highest number since June 3.
The gathering at the Rose Garden would have violated the city's mandates limiting the size of gatherings and requiring masks. But because the White House is on federal property, it is exempt from such rules.
City officials said they would be closely monitoring infection trends for several days to see if the Capitol and White House cases affected the city's overall infection rate.

The White House physician, Dr. Sean P. Conley, said on Tuesday that President Trump was experiencing no symptoms of Covid-19 and doing "extremely well" on his first full day at home since a three-night stay in the hospital.
But outside doctors and medical experts in Covid-19 and lung disease said they were struggling to piece together an accurate picture of Mr. Trump's health. Far from having vanquished Covid-19, the outside experts said, Mr. Trump is most
Trevor Noah, Stephen Colbert pummel Trump and White House for its coronavirus spread
October 6, 2020 [email protected]_84 Colbert, Coronavirus, house, Noah, pummel, Spread, Stephen, Trevor, Trump, White
"A massive outbreak at the White House is not karma, it's consequences," Noah said on "The Daily Show." "It's not karma to get hit by lightning when you're standing on the roof of a skyscraper holding a metal rod while there's lightning. The universe didn't do that s— to you. You did that s— to yourself!"
While details remain murky about Trump's true condition and questions linger about the White House's lack of safety protocols and decision not to do contact tracing amid the mass outbreak, late-night comics lambasted Trump on Monday over his own infection and his handling of the pandemic.
"They are inveterate liars, they can't help themselves. They're also really bad at it. Seriously, what's more troubling — that they lie all the time or that they lie all the time and have shown no improvement in lying?" Seth Meyers said on NBC's "Late Night." "It's like sending your kid to math camp for a week and when they come back, they tell you it was the toughest nine days of their life."
Several hosts homed in on a staged photo op the White House released of Trump working inside Walter Reed Military Medical Hospital over the weekend. Although the photos showed the president sitting in two different rooms, metadata reviewed by The Washington Post showed the images — including one of Trump writing on a blank sheet of paper — were taken minutes apart.
"People are saying that he's just writing his name on a blank piece of paper. But that's not true," Jimmy Fallon said on NBC's "The Tonight Show." "That's not a blank piece of paper. That's just his entire plan to stop covid."
"President? He looks like he should have a booth at Comic-Con," Meyers said.
Trump also drew particular scorn from the comics over his decision on Sunday to ride in an SUV so he could wave at supporters outside the hospital, potentially exposing Secret Service members to the virus.
"Nothing projects strength like waving from the back seat of an SUV like a kid headed for soccer practice," Meyers said. "Smart move keeping your juice box between your knees."
The president's stay in the hospital didn't stop him his usual Twitter rants. On Sunday, Trump posted a video of him standing in his hospital suite, which Meyers said "cost more than the $750 you paid in taxes." In that video, the president said he had "learned a lot about covid" from his treatments.
"Really? You're learning now?" Stephen Colbert said on CBS's "The Late Show." Imitating Trump, Colbert added: "For the last eight months, I've heard about millions of people getting infected with covid, hundreds of thousands of [them] dying. But how could I know these people were real if they weren't me? But now they are me. My thoughts and prayers go to all of myself."
Meyers noted that it was no surprise that at least 10 guests at a White House event introducing Trump's Supreme Court nominee, Amy Coney
STEPHEN THOMPSON: Here's a handy guide to spray-painting kitchen cabinets | Lifestyle
September 27, 2020 [email protected]_84 cabinets, Guide, handy, Heres, kitchen, Lifestyle, spraypainting, Stephen, Thompson
In the '70s and '80s, I sold a lot of Sherwin-Williams paint. Back then spray-paint machines were expensive, temperamental and definitely for professional use only. A lot has changed since then. Now the mystique and complexity of spray-painting has been vastly simplified. DIYers can easily purchase and operate an entry-level ($89 home-owner grade spray gun and compressor from Wagner Home Decor) for their difficult painting projects. OK, full disclosure, I have never used the Wagner Home Decor HVLP Stationary Sprayer I'm recommending here, but I'm very impressed by its videos. I strongly advise practicing on a small project before you tackle the large job of painting all your kitchen cabinets.
When you want a smooth finish, especially when using high-gloss paint, a sprayed-on finish is absolutely the best way to go. You'll get a far more even, uniform surface by spraying than by brushing and rolling. Why? Because a high-gloss paint will literally highlight and accentuate every single one of your roller and brush mark imperfections in the finish coat.
Before spraying, the surface you are painting should appear as smooth as glass. That means 90% of any spray-paint job is time you'll spend in preparation, with just 10% percent in actual painting. You might be surprised, but that amount of prep time for spray work isn't much longer than prep time for brush or roller painting. However, what you gain by spraying is a huge savings in the amount of time spent painting.
So, what does the 90% prep work involve? First, remove all the hardware and take the doors off their hinges. Put up plastic and lay drop cloths to keep sanding dust and paint overspray from adjacent surfaces. Use a degreaser to clean throughly and to completely remove dirt, oils, grease and grime. Fill in all dents and scratches and sand smooth. Using a sanding sponge or sandpaper, lightly go over all the cabinet parts to ensure every surface has an even consistency – sanding with the grain of the wood to prevent any surface damage – and remove all sanding dust with a tack cloth or clean sponge.
If your cabinets have been painted many times, you can skip the cleaning part above, but you will need to apply a stripping agent to remove those previous coats of paint.
Depending on how dark your cabinets are and how opaque your primer is, plan on applying at minimum two to three coats of paint, the first of which should be a fast-drying primer. A quality primer will (1) help conceal imperfections, (2) block past cooking stains from bleeding through the finishes and (3) make it easy for paint to adhere to your cabinets. Let your base coat dry, use your sanding sponge again – just not too aggressively this time – and remove any sanding dust.
Let each additional coat of paint dry thoroughly (about 24 hours) before lightly sanding and applying another coat. Let the paint fully cure for about 48 hours before reattaching the doors,
Stephen Wright House – Paw Paw, Illinois
March 29, 2020 [email protected]_84 house, Illinois, Paw, Stephen, Wright
Before we get to the Reagan landmarks in Dixon we stop in Paw Paw, Illinois, a small village many of you Illinois residents have probably passed on Interstate 39, you know you are there when you see the large electricity generating windmills on the horizon. Before 2005 the 850 person village of Paw Paw had no properties included on the federal National Register of Historic Places. The listing of the Stephen Wright House changed that in May of that year.
After mingling amongst the windmills of the Mendota Hills Wind Farm for a bit, I made my way over to the village proper and sought out the Wright House. The house was constructed sometime between 1895 and 1906 by Paw Paw native, and real estate speculator Stephen Wright.
The home is an excellent example of Queen Anne style architecture. It very clearly illustrates the hip roof (wiki) with flanking cross gables (wiki) that is found on about 50 percent of Queen Anne style houses. The roof style is a quick way to identify many less obvious examples of Queen Anne. Viewed from the cross gables, the hip roof is less obvious, making for an interesting visual play, depending on where the viewer stands.
Tomorrow we visit our first Reagan landmark in Dixon. Paw Paw is a village in Lee County, located in northern Illinois. Norther Illinois is full of interesting places listed in the National Register of Historic Places and well worth the look for any history student or buff. Feel free to Google it and have a look for yourself.

Vietnam says 7 killed in shooting on China border
https://str.sg/UFsa
HANOI (AFP) - Seven people were killed in a gun battle between border guards and Chinese illegal migrants at a remote frontier crossing in northeast Vietnam, authorities said on Friday.
Sixteen Chinese nationals - 10 men, four women and two children - were detained early Friday after attempting to enter Vietnam, the Quang Ninh provincial government said in a statement.
While authorities were preparing to send them back, "some Chinese men in this group seized guns from Vietnamese border guards and shot at them... killing one guard on the spot," the statement said.
Vietnamese and Chinese authorities sought to calm the situation but the migrants refused to drop their weapons and a firefight erupted, it added.
In total two Vietnamese border guards and five Chinese migrants were killed, according to the statement, which said the incident was "not a terrorist attack".
It was not immediately possible to verify the authorities' account.
The statement did not say whether the dead included Chinese women and children.
Vietnamese state media reported that the Chinese migrants were from the Muslim-majority province of Xingjian but there was no independent confirmation.
Vietnam's remote northeastern region, which borders China's Guangxi province, is poor and mostly populated by a patchwork of ethnic minority groups.
There have been previous human trafficking and people smuggling cases in the area, including of Vietnamese women forced to marry Chinese men and young boys kidnapped for sale to wealthy childless Chinese families.
But it is unusual for irregular Chinese migrants to be caught trying to enter Vietnam, with more Vietnamese migrants travelling north to find work in China's fast-growing cities.
No data exists on the scale of economic migration across the remote, sparsely guarded border but it is believed to be widespread as it is difficult for the neighbouring communist countries to control all movement across their 1,300 plus kilometre-long joint border.

For most people, this time of year is all about tradition and celebration. From carol singing to cookie decorating, I bet a lot of you have holiday rituals and family customs that are practiced and passed down year after year. Personally, it's activities like eating grandma's Ginger Crinkle cookies, dressing up for Christmas Eve Mass, and sharing laughs with my cousins in our pajamas that mean the season is upon us. We just arrived in California last night, and already I can feel the spirit of the holidays all around me.
One good way to keep traditions alive is through food. I'm sure there is more than one reason that candy canes and fruit cake have such longevity besides just their flavors. In our house, we have the same treats and sweets each year (see Ginger Crinkles, yumm), plus a couple new ones. Since my cooking style revolves around old classics with modern twists, I like to do the same around the holidays. This year, I sought out to reinvent a traditional molasses gingerbread cake into a new layer cake, and what a treat it turned out to be.

Clemson women's basketball improves to 3-0
Dan Hope
daniel.hope@independentmail.com
CLEMSON – The Clemson women's basketball team won just four times in 30 games last season.
Three games into this season the Tigers are already just one win away from their fourth victory this year.
After earning a 58-47 win over Georgia Southern on Wednesday at Littlejohn Coliseum, Clemson has a 3-0 record for the first time since 1998.
"I'm so proud of this team and I'm so happy for this team, because last year was difficult," said Clemson coach Audra Smith. "To be in a situation right now to be 3-0 is phenomenal for this crew."
The Tigers are feeling a different level of confidence than they have in past years.
"Our chemistry on and off the floor is just great," said sophomore guard Aliyah Collier. "I think we can go really far."
Clemson trailed Georgia Southern for most of the first half, but finished the second quarter on a 14-3 run to take a 31-27 lead into halftime. The Tigers never led by more than seven points in the first three quarters, but finished the game on a 13-4 run to win by a 11-point margin.
Freshman post player Kobi Thornton led Clemson with 16 points and 11 rebounds for her first career double-double. She also led the Tigers with three blocks.
"With these young kids playing well early, it gives them confidence," Smith said. "For a kid like Kobi Thornton to play the way she does and give us 16 and 11, that's just phenomenal."
Thornton was one of three Clemson players to score double digits off the bench along with Collier and junior guard Victoria Cardaci, who each had 12.
The Tigers already have had seven different double-digit scorers this season.
"That makes us very hard to scout," Smith said. "When you got to scout seven, eight people that can score the ball, it makes it really difficult for the opposition."
Greenville native Angel McGowan led all scorers in Wednesday's game with 22 points, but was Georgia Southern's only player to score in double digits. Patrice Butler, Georgia Southern's leading scorer entering the game, was held to only eight points.
"They only had one kid to carry them, and one player can't win a ballgame, so we were able to take everything else from everybody else," Smith said. "(McGowan) presented some challenges for us, but we made sure that we didn't let Butler or anybody else get started."
The Eagles' 47 points were the least allowed by the Tigers in their last 32 games. Clemson had 20 offensive rebounds in Wednesday's game and forced 20 turnovers.
Clemson's first chance to match last season's win total will come Saturday at 1 p.m., when the Tigers will play their first road game of the season at Monmouth. Clemson's next home game at Littlejohn Coliseum is scheduled for Tuesday at 5 p.m. against Louisiana Tech.

Private Construction Banned At Buddhist Site
News Post India, August 13, 2007
Sirpur, India -- The Chhattisgarh government Monday decided to ban private construction at the famous Buddhist site of Sirpur. Permission for construction will only be given in rare cases as the government plans to develop it as a world heritage site.
'I have told Mahasamund district collector that encroachments in Sirpur village should be razed. Private construction will only be allowed in rare cases with prior permission as the findings of excavations are establishing that Sirpur was one of the biggest Buddhist centres of knowledge in the world,' State Tourism and Culture Minister Brijmohan Agrawal told IANS.
Sirpur, located about 70 km east of capital Raipur in Mahasamund district, was a famed centre for Buddhist studies between the sixth and tenth centuries. According to Chinese traveller Hiuen Tsang, who visited the village in the seventh century, Sirpur had an Ashoka stupa, at least 100 monasteries and 150 temples.
The Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) is currently carrying out one of the biggest excavation works of central India at Sirpur and the state government is lobbying for getting world heritage status for the site.
'We have set up a Sirpur Development Project that is in final stage of approving development works worth millions of rupees, including developing a museum where all the findings coming up during excavations will be kept preserved,' Agrawal said.

Q: what's POST code 18 / can I run an ASRock P55 Pro + Core i3 530? When I switch my newly built PC on, the fans start up, but I get nothing on the monitor, and the POST display on the motherboard runs quickly through various codes and then stops at code 18, which does not appear in the manual (the list there seems identical to this one).
This lasts about 10 seconds, after which the machine shuts down. After a pause (also about 10 seconds) it starts up again, and this repeats until I cut the power. Interestingly, when I push the reset button, it stops at POST code 16 (which is also not listed in the manual). Does anyone have information about the meaning of those codes?

*

*Motherboard: ASRock P55 Pro

*CPU: Intel Core i3 530

*Graphics Card: Sapphire HHD 5750

Does anyone have experience with that Motherboard/CPU combination? It says on the packaging and in the manual that it's only compatible with Core i5 and i7 (no mention of i3), but on the maker's product page, the i3 is listed as compatible as well.

A: If the i3 is not listed in the documentation that came with your board, but is listed on the manufacturer's website, there's a very likely chance that support for the processor was added in a recent version of the BIOS. Your computer may be new, but it really depends on how long that specific motherboard was sitting on the shelf before it was selected. If you happen to have a working processor that can be spared temporarily, you can check and/or update the BIOS.
I'm currently digging around the web to see if I can find either of those error codes.

A: OK, looks like the CPU thing was a red herring. The real problem was RAM. Apparently one of the two 2GB modules I ordered is completely broken. If I remove it, the machine boots just fine, no matter what socket the other module is in. Stupid thing is, I'll probably have to send them both back, as I bought them as a set.
BTW, I found a very good guide for troubleshooting custom-built PCs at Tom's Hardware.

BARCELONA'S decision to bench Lionel Messi paid off with the Catalan giants holding Juventus to a goalless draw in Turin.
Barcelona booked their place in the Champions League knockout stages by exorcising the demons last year.
Back in April, Juventus swaggered their way past the Catalan giants to book their place in the semi-finals of the competition.
But, despite benching Messi, Barcelona did enough to avoid a repeat of that fiasco.
In the build-up to the game, all eyes were on Messi and Paulo Dybala.
One is the face of the Argentina football team and the other one, supposedly, is his heir in the making.
But fans hoping for an enthralling showdown between two of the world's best players were left disappointed.
Messi was left on the bench with Barcelona weary of burning out their star asset.
It was a gamble that could have easily backfired on manager Ernesto Valverde.
But Barcelona's dogged defending was enough to see them through.
Gonzalo Higuain and Daniele Rugani both missed key chances to give Juventus all three points.
But last year's finalists were unable to break the deadlock against a stubborn Barcelona side.
The Catalan giants themselves went close through Luis Suarez and Gerard Deulofeu.
The latter was particularly lively before making way for Messi with just over half an hour remaining.
But the game ended goalless with even Messi's introduction unable to force a winner.


The New York Times can be credited — if that is the word — with performing this public service in a recent editorial against proposals to allow law-abiding citizens to carry concealed guns. They refer to what they call the National Rifle Association's "fantasy that citizens can stand up to gunmen by shooting it out."
Nobody has suggested any such thing. Data collected over many years — but almost never seeing the light of day in the New York Times or the rest of the mainstream media — show many thousands of examples of people defending themselves with a gun each year, without having to pull the trigger.
Concealed guns protect not only those who carry them but also those who do not. If concealed guns become widespread, then a mugger or a car jacker has no way of knowing who has one and who does not. It makes being a mugger or a car jacker a less safe occupation. Gun control laws are in effect occupational safety laws — OSHA for burglars, muggers, car jackers and others.

NEW RELEASE: Richie Beirach - Gregor Huebner Duo The WDR Big Band "Crossing Borders"
Richie Beirach- Gregor Huebner Duo The WDR Big Band "Crossing Borders" (ZohoZM 201903) Street Date: May 10, 2019 RICHIE BEIRACH – piano, GREGOR HUEBNER – violin, RICH DEROSA - conductor, arranger on #1, 5, 9, 10 + The WDR Big Band http://www.zohomusic.com/cds/huebner_crossingborders.html
Any musician worth his or her salt knows that timing is integral to making music. From counting notes in a measure, to orchestrating in different meters, the element of time is foundational to every piece of music. For most artists, being sure that a song has proper timing is mostly a musical decision. But in the case of Crossing Borders, maestros Richie Beirach, piano, Gregor Huebner, violin, and Rich De Rosa (conductor) have thought about timing in a broader sense. Their spectacular and sparkling album with Germany's WDR Big Band is both timely and timeless. In the US and Western Europe, the rise of tribal politics and a trenchant xenophobia has taken hold. Building the US-Mexico border wall has become a political issue, not just dividing countries, but Americans who support or disagree with this measure. The resulting heightened concern and anxiety towards people who are different continues to shape the national political dialogue. This is a conversation in which artists can and should participate. Musical creators learn from an early age that they should evaluate people on their intrinsic talents and skills. And that music ultimately has a welcoming spirit, in which artists and audience members can be in communion with each other during and throughout a performance or production. Crossing Borders is a production with this sort of welcoming spirit. It blends borders between classical and jazz, traditional and edgy. Both Richie Beirach and Gregor Huebner were classically trained and play instruments that are often used to perform music by Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms. "I wanted to do something unusual," said Huebner. So, when he was commissioned by the WDR, he jumped at the opportunity to create something of the moment, and very much needed. The first piece Rectilinear/Paradox is a medley of two Beirach compositions. It's a rather short number but makes a profound statement. It's the opening salvo of what's to come, an album that knows no borders or limits. The juxtaposition of these two pieces showcases how different sounding elements may mesh together. The more melodic "Paradox" with its song-like form, paired with the contrapuntal material of "Rectilinear" makes for tantalizing beginning. The centerpieces of this production are two concertos for solo instruments and jazz orchestra composed by Huebner. Given that solo concertos are usually within the classical music genre, and performed with an orchestra, this album's title "Crossing Borders" thus derives its second meaning by describing these two concertos' musical category-transcending character into big band jazz. "To write for a big band in this way is something new and fresh," he says. Violin Concerto No. 3 is comprised of three movements. The first is Kathmandu and it is based on the devastating earthquake which occurred in Nepal in April 2015, around the time that Huebner began thinking about this project. It begins with a slow introduction followed by a scream or outburst with a heavy rhythmic structure. As the second movement The Grave begins, a more serene aesthetic envelopes the listener, as the number is based on one note that varies in terms of volume and density, as performed by Huebner. This represents the settling down or aftermath of the earthquake. Finally, the third movement is entitled Two Thousand 15 and presents a more uplifting and positive outlook on the future, the rising from the ashes. Snow Leopard is a masterful arrangement, inspired by the original 1978 ECM LP "Eon" of the Richie Beirach Trio with George Mraz and Jack DeJohnette, which have moments of silence and space. It's in this "emptiness" that DeJohnette responds gracefully. "That's where I got the idea," says DeRosa, "to transcribe Richie's improvisation from the 1978 recording, and then ask him to respond to his solos from years ago." The WDR horn players followed suit by performing Richie's transcribed piano improvisation. That a classic recording could be recast in this way is a commentary on how sometimes the best ideas come from looking at from where we've come. Huebner composed the Piano Concerto No. 3 for his friend Beirach, who he has collaborated with for some twenty-three years. It is entitled "The Code" since that's Beirach's nickname as he knows "the code" of playing music at a high level. Indeed, this concerto also has three movements, beginning with Into the Quest. Beirach and Liebman had a band "Quest" which began in the 1980s and this piece evokes the energy from this band. There is a terrific solo transition into the second movement It's Enough. It is based on a 17th century German Lutheran hymn which has a deep history in German classical music: Bach arranged it as a chorale in his Church Cantata BWV 60, and Austrian composer Alban Berg employed it to great effect in his Violin Concerto of 1935. "This is Richie's forte, to take another composition and make it his own," said Huebner. The last movement Born in Brooklyn is a coming home of sorts. Beirach was born in this borough and grew up in this environment rich with creative energy. Elm was written by Beirach on Christmas Day 1979 when he found out that his peer, Polish jazz violinist Zbigniew "Zbiggy" Seifert, a violinist of great import, had passed away. "This piece became my best-known composition," says Beirach. The direct emotional appeal of the melody and simplicity of the harmony and structure certainly strikes a chord within the heart. It opens with a chorale set in dark brass followed by a moment of solitude, in which there's a written cadenza for bassist John Goldsby. The duet between violin and guitar evokes a somber, solemn moment, as Beirach performs a stirring solo. Pendulum, another Beirach composition from the 1978 ECM "Eon" LP, may sound like a simple and short piece. This modal number is anything but. It incorporates a chromatic pedal-point that builds intensity, over which the melody unfolds. The piece culminates with a stomping groove that grows in volume and instrumentation. It's certainly a dazzling number, showcasing both brilliant arrangement and performance. It has been a privilege and high honor to produce this production with and for these musical giants. Creating music that speaks to the time in which we live is a charge that I hope more artists will be inspired to take on.

Rent a Dumpster in 19803 Now!
Simply give us a call and we will answer any questions you may have about the 19803 dumpster rental procedure, allowed materials, size you may need, etc.
Our roll off containers can usually be delivered in 19803 the day after you place your order. Make sure to call us early to ensure timely delivery.
When you rent a temporary dumpster, your aim is to fill it up and possess the waste hauled away. But should you want your waste recycled, you may need to really go about it in a slightly different style. Waste in the majority of temporary dumpsters is not recycled since the containers are so big and hold so much material.
If you are interested in recycling any waste from your job, check into getting smaller containers. Many dumpster rental firms in 19803 have a broad range of containers available, including those for recycling. All these are typically smaller than temporary dumpsters; they're the size of regular trash bins and smaller.
If you would like to recycle, learn whether the business you are working with uses single stream recycling (you do not have to sort the material) or in case you'll need to form the recyclable material into distinct containers (aluminum cans, cardboard, plastics, etc.) This is going to really make a difference in the variety of containers you need to rent.
What Size Dumpster Should I Get for a Residential Clean Out in 19803?
Residential clean outs typically don't need large dumpsters. The size that you just need, though, will be contingent on the size of the undertaking.
If your plan is to clean out the entire home, then you most likely need a 20-yard roll off dumpster. You can also use this size for a large basement or attic clean out.
When picking a dumpster, though, it is frequently wise to ask for a size bigger than what you think you'll need. Unless you're a professional, it is tough to estimate the precise size required for your job. By getting a somewhat bigger size, you spend a little more money, however you also avoid the possibility you will run out of room. Renting a bigger dumpster is almost always cheaper than renting two small ones.
Picking the top dumpster for your project is an important aspect of dumpster rental in 19803. Should you pick a dumpster that's too small, you won't have enough room for your debris and waste, which means you will have to schedule extra excursions. In case you select one that's too huge, you will save time, but you will waste money.
Should you call a dumpster rental business in 19803 and describe the job for which you need a dumpster, they can recommend the best size. Their years of experience mean that they usually get it just about right. A 10-yard dumpster usually functions well for moderate-sized clean-up projects and little remodeling jobs. A 20-yard dumpster is the best option for large residence clean-up projects and moderate-sized renovation projects, while a 30-yard dumpster has higher walls that are ideal for a home cleanout or remodeling jobs on a sizable house. 40-yard dumpsters are massively large and are used only on the biggest projects including new construction.
What if I want my dumpster in 19803 picked up early?
When you make arrangements to rent a dumpster in 19803, part of your rental agreement contains a given duration of time you are permitted to use the container. You normally base this time on the length of time you think your project might take. The bigger the job, the more time you will need the dumpster. Most dumpster rental companies in 19803 give you a rate for a specific amount of days. Should you surpass that quantity of days, you will pay an extra fee daily. If the job goes more rapidly than expected, you may be finished with the dumpster earlier than you anticipated.
If this really is the case, give the dumpster company a call and they will probably come pick your container up early; this will allow them to rent it to someone else more fast. You normally will not get a reduction on your own rate if you ask for early pick up. Your rental fee includes 7 days (or whatever your term is), whether you use them all or not.
You can fill your dumpster as full as you like, provided that you don't load it higher in relation to the sides of the container. Over filling the dumpster could cause the waste or debris to slide off as the dumpster is loaded onto the truck or as the truck is driving. Overloaded or big-boned dumpsters are not really safe, and businesses will not take dangerous loads in order to protect motorists and passengers on the road.
In some places, dumpster loads must be tarped for security. In case your load is too high, it WOn't have the ability to be tarped so you may need to remove a number of the debris before it can be hauled away. This might result in extra fees if it needs you to keep the dumpster for a longer amount of time. Remember to maintain your load no higher in relation to the sides of the dumpster, and you will be good.
When you want to rent a dumpster in 19803 to use at your house, it is a great idea to keep several guidelines in mind. First, determine the size dumpster that'll work best for your job. Temporary dumpsters generally come in 10, 20, 30 and 40 yard sizes. Next, think about the placement of the dumpster on your own property. Recommendations call for you to give an area that is twice the width and height of the container. This will definitely ensure proper height and space clearance.
The price you are quoted for the container will have a one time delivery and pickup fee, together with standard fees for disposal, fuel and tax. You should also understand that you can only fill the container to the top; no debris should be sticking out. As the homeowner, it's also wise to check with your local city or municipality to find out whether a permit is needed to put the container on the street.
Do I need a permit to rent a dumpster in 19803?
If this is your very first time renting a dumpster in 19803, you may not understand what is legally permissible in regards to the positioning of the dumpster. If your plan is to put the dumpster completely on your own property, you are not typically required to obtain a permit.
If, however, your job needs you to put the dumpster on a public street or roadway, this may generally mean you have to try to qualify for a permit. It's almost always wise to consult your local city or county offices (perhaps the parking enforcement division) in case you own a question regarding the requirement for a permit on a street.
If you fail to obtain a permit and find out afterwards that you were required to have one, you may likely face a fine from your local authorities. In most dumpster rental in 19803 cases, though, you should be just fine without a permit as long as you keep the dumpster on your property.
If you need to rent a dumpster in 19803, you'll discover that costs vary significantly from state to state and city to city. One method to get real estimates for the service you need would be to call a local dumpster business and ask regarding their costs. You can also request a quote online on some websites. These websites may also contain complete online service that is always open. On these websites, you can pick, schedule and pay for your service whenever it is suitable for you.
Variables that affect the price of the container contain landfill fees (higher in certain places than others) and also the size of the container you choose. You should also consider transportation costs and also the kind of debris you will be setting into your container.
Price quotes for dumpster rental in 19803 generally contain the following: the size of the container, the kind of debris involved, the base price for the dumpster, how much weight is included in the quote, a specified rental period and delivery and pickup fees.


I'm not sure what hit me most, that my friend was indeed dying, the thought of what his family was going through, or the idea of never seeing him again. I had just put my children to bed, and was (doing what they say you shouldn't) checking Facebook that one last time before I went to sleep. That night I cried myself to sleep.
I had just returned back from a trip where Oren had been honored. Dad 2.0, the annual dad conference, that I have had the pleasure of attending the last three years, had just named a scholarship program after Oren. Though Oren could not attend, his words were delivered and appreciated. What's more, the conference ended with the news that we would be traveling to Washington DC next year – practically in his backyard.
Several of us sent him a flurry of messages upon returning home. His response caught me off guard as I hadn't read his aforementioned post yet. I told him how cool it was that they named the scholarship after him. I told him that I hoped he was smiling knowing that a ton of us were thinking of him. I told him that I missed him.
He responded that he wished he could meet me again too. And that's when I saw the post. That's when the tears started.
His bluntness, his bravery, allowed us to share things with him that are usually only shared at a funeral. After a person has died. I'm not going to repeat what was said out of respect for the sanctity of the group, but suffice to say – if he didn't know that he was appreciated before his post, he did afterwards. I am thankful for that. I am thankful that he got to hear, read, see all of the love sent his way.
Okay, I know it sounds silly – even Oren gave the group a tagline "A blogging dads group. So crazy it might just work." So he starts a private group on Facebook, 30 guys join, 100 guys join, 500 guys join, 1000 guys join. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but it is.
I'm not going to sit here and say that Oren started the fatherhood movement, but he championed it. He helped organized it. He facilitated a place where men, fathers, can communicate with other men about so many aspects of fatherhood. Of life. And through it all, he was the gatekeeper. He was the quiet voice of reason when people weren't being reasonable. He was the quiet smile, the quick joke, and soothing chat that seemed to set the perspective back to reality. He was a friend to the masses, a welcomer, a connector, an encourager.
He was one of the first people that I "virtually" met in the dad blogger community – and then I got to meet him in real life. He was humble, kind, quick witted. He seemed to be everywhere. With everyone. He wasn't a self promoter. He was a community promoter. He was a friend.
Enjoying a walking tour of New Orleans with my friend Oren.
He was a good man, taken far too soon.
That is the truth. Still seems surreal. I keep waiting for a post from him that says he is okay…it's just not right.
He will indeed. He was a great guy – and i have to cling to that silver lining.
I am so sorry. He was amazing, always will be.
He will be greatly missed, but he will not be forgotten. Thanks for sharing this.
Well done, my good man. Thanks for writing this to allow others of us a chance to share in your memories of this good man who will live on in all of us.
Thanks for the kind words, Carl. You are right – He will live on through us.
Sorry to hear about your friend, it sounds like your boy Oren got all the milage he could out of his time here. We dont pick the beginning or the end, so its what you do with the middle that counts. And if you made it count, not a damn tear should be shed in sadness, because you lived it right. Drink to the man, be there if his family needs you and keep on moving as you know he would tell you.
He did get the most of his time here – and that is a great lesson to us all. Thanks for the quote!
Nice post. We lost a great champion.
Thanks, Rob. We did lose a great champion, but its up to us now to carry on the torch he has passed on. We can't replace him, but we can carry it on. Together.
Well said here. Thanks for sharing this.
Well written, Creed. The end of Oren's story a few days ago hit hard and fast, and it hurt. I truly never thought I'd feel so much emotion from someone I've never met in person, but Oren's passing has proved otherwise.
Thank you for sharing, and may we all stand strong together and hold ourselves up high in support for the great man, Oren!
Crazy how tight this group has become, isnt it? Thanks for reading and for sharing your feelings.
Wow. What a wonderful person. You did a nice job of letting us get to know him through your post.
Thanks for reading, and the kind words.

Window on Eurasia: Dam Bombing Could Be 'Dress Rehearsal' for Sochi Olympics, Moscow Analyst Says
Staunton, July 22 – Most Russian commentators have suggested that the bombing this week of a hydroelectric dam in the North Caucasus was either simply a continuation of the activities of anti-government groups in that region or was specifically directed against the leadership of Kabardino-Balkaria or Presidential Plenipotentiary Aleksandr Khloponin.
All those factors could be at work, Aleksandr Krylov, a senior scholar at the Moscow Institute of International Economics and International Relations, acknowledges, but he argues that the bombing may in fact be part of a broader effort by Circassian groups and others to derail plans for the Sochi Olympics in 2014 (www.nakanune.ru/articles/14789).
Krylov specifically notes that "there is an intensification now in the North Caucasus of the Circassian problem, which is directly connected with the upcoming Olympiad, and certain forces are actively attempting to play the Circassian card for their own purposes," an effort that has found "mass support in local society" there.
In support of his argument, Krylov points to what happened in the lead up to the Beijing Olympics. It was no accident, he suggests, that "on the eve of the Chinese Olympics the theme of Tibet and the Xinjiang-Uighur Autonomous district sounded to strongly. This was not a simple coincidence; there are influential forces in the world who strive to use ethnic games."
Krylov's suggestion is important for at least three reasons. First, it reflects a continuing lack of consensus in the Russian capital not only over the source of violence in the North Caucasus but also on how best to counter it, with officials divided between those who favor force and those who believe only economic change will lead to an improvement, albeit over time.
Second, it is yet another indication that those Circassians who seek the formation of a single republic for their nationality in the North Caucasus and demand official recognition of the genocide carried out against them nearly 150 years ago by tsarist authorities have gotten the attention of Moscow, albeit perhaps not the kind of attention they seek.
And third, and perhaps most important, Krylov's argument highlights the growing tendency of officials in the Russian capital to view all issues in the North Caucasus through the prism of preparations for the Sochi Olympics, the 2014 games that Vladimir Putin has indicated he views as a major part of his legacy.
On the one hand, such a perspective suggests that Moscow may be prepared to use even more force against those like the Circassians it suspects of trying to undermine Russia's ability to prepare for and stage the games and that the center will adopt an even harder line against the Circassians now than it has in the past.
And on the other, Krylov's linkage of the Circassians and the question of the Sochi Games could simultaneously lead Moscow to devote more attention to the ethnic dimension of conflicts in the region, aspects of the conflict there which many in Moscow and elsewhere have discounted because of the rise of Islamist politics.
In response to questions put by Nakanune.ru, Krylov made a number of additional points about Russian policy in the North Caucasus in the wake of the latest attack. He said that the decision of anti-Russian forces to attack something as major as a dam shows that "the local underground has become more active" and that "the situation will continue to get worse."
Indeed, he says, "it is completely possible that those forces which are striving toward the destabilization [of the region] want to push the situation there to the level of Chechnya a decade ago." Given the likelihood of such plans, Krylov continues, "that is the chief cause" behind the dam explosion, and not "some kind of contradictions in the local elite."
Asked directly what forces might be interested in such an outcome, Krylov responds that "there are many such forces both locally and abroad," including Al Qaeda, "criminal groups, various foreign states who in some fashion want to put pressure on Russia in their interests and are using for this the Circassian factor and the unstable situation."
Local elites, Krylov says, are exploiting all this, seeking to "shift responsibility" for everything onto Moscow and "receive from the federal center concessions and what is most important financial means." And consequently in the years leading up to the Sochi Games, "we will have an extremely complex situation in this [Circassian] part of the Caucasus."
According to Krylov, the most important thing Moscow can do is to define the problem correctly and "foresee threats." Up to now, he says, "our powers that be have been reacting to what happens." As a result, the initiative belongs not to the powers that be but rather to those who oppose them.
Fighting terrorism is hard for everyone, Krylov concedes, but it seems harder for Russia than for others. "Our western 'allies' learn from their mistakes and do not have repeats of the explosions which have occurred. With us, on the other hand, is observed a certain psychological freeze: terrorist acts take place with regularity and quite frequently. This is very disturbing."
Asked whether the new law on the FSB will change the situation, Krylov says that only the future will tell. But he notes that "we have a large number of ideas and various documents, but then somehow this all is very poorly followed in the real work of the organs," institutions that for all their shortcomings are nonetheless doing a great deal.
"If they were not effective," the IMEMO analyst suggests, "the situation would be much worse, but up to now they have functioned insufficiently effectively in order to block the majority of threats which are arising for the security of the state."
