I can't help but view the image above and think of 2001, with some impenetrable black slab tilted horizontally and laid upon the city. The sign, which comes from Toronto, has been the source of some puzzlement over its origin or purpose — maybe someone in actual authority can provide the final answer as to what this signage means and why it needs to be in place (although, I will admit, the sign gains in strange, mythic stature the less one knows about it). It seems to have something to do with plowing — and monolithic refers to its construction — but are sidewalks plowed by trucks? (and if it's plowed in the way the above image suggests, wouldn't that dump a bunch of snow on that very sidewalk?) Why only a monolithic sidewalk there, and not anywhere else? What's a non-monolithic sidewalk called?
And as reader Bruce notes, the sign has even prompted a searching inquiry into self-effacing signage and Canadian national identity.

It was a true joy getting to know Jackie. She's kind of like, a local celebrity. 🙂 People know this impressive young lady because of the amazing example she has set in our community. She has faced the unthinkable with grace and resilience. At such a young age, she has made the choice to find joy and be joyful. I know you'll enjoy looking at these gorgeous images just as much as I enjoyed taking them.
Jackie says the best thing about high school is being around friends. In her spare time she is very social, usually with friends or cheering on her teammates on the softball and basketball teams.
Jackie has already been accepted into Mount Union for nursing school. She sees her future self as an oncology nurse at a pediatric hospital, hopefully, she says, at Akron Children's Hospital where she receives treatment.
Jackie's advice for underclassmen: "Always work hard. High school is where colleges look to see how you are doing. Also, get involved in as many clubs as you can. You meet so many new people and it really keeps you busy." Wise beyond her years, when I asked her if she had any piece of wisdom to pass along, she says, "Never take anything for granted. Your whole life can change in just a matter of seconds." Friend, you are going to set this world on fire. I can't wait to see what amazing things your future holds! Thanks for such a fun photo session (hope you like the pics OFF of the back of my camera 😉 ) and most sincere congratulations on your High School GRADUATION!!! Much love!

A cardigan, in the UK, is a staple in your wardrobe. Sometimes though you just want to cover your arms and have a little warmth without detracting from the rest of your outfit. A bolero is a great solution.
I love my granny stripe bolero in acrylic yarn and can honestly say it is one of my favourite items in my wardrobe.
The white bolero is made in bamboo cotton and is cool to wear and very comfortable. It would make a great cover-up for a wedding outfit.
These designs are of my own invention and can be ordered through our etsy shop.


Hyundai has tasted great success with their new Fluidic design concept and now the 2016 Hyundai Elantra was spotted with a similar design structure.
Unfortunately the fifth generation 2016 Hyundai Elantra was heavily camouflaged and not much can be gathered about the overhauled look of the new Elantra. But nevertheless one can still see a few changes on the new Elantra which is inspired by the Hyundai Genesis and Sonata. Hiding behind the camouflage one can notice an elegant and sleek front headlight cluster, a newly and aggressively designed front bumper, which sports sculpted outer flanks with LED strips and air-vents and a chromed hexagonal front grille. The rear design sports, new tail lamps and rear fenders.
Talking about the powertrain in the 2016 Hyundai Elantra, not much has been revealed or said by the company. But one can expect Hyundai to continue with the same engines, except tweak it a little to give a better fuel-efficiency and lower CO2 emissions. Where the suspension and chassis is concerned in the new Elantra, Hyundai may make a few minor modifications to provide better handling and a smoother drive.
Hyundai may plan to officially launch the 2016 Hyundai Elantra in the latter half of 2015 and will be up against the Chevrolet Cruze, Mazda 3 and Ford Focus. We hope the 2016 Elantra, with its new styling may also feature a hi-tech instrument cluster inside the cabin, which will help it boost sales its sales in the sedan car segment.

An ETA on this development?
+1, just bought a PockEthernet and would love to see it provide me with a portable serial port in the near future, lugging around a small laptop with a USB-serial cable is getting old.
That being said, there is nothing wrong with a focus on stability over many additional features. As long as development continues in some fashion, I'll be satisfied.

Campus Reform | Amherst students demand crackdown against free speech
Amherst students demand crackdown against free speech
Peter Fricke | Managing Editor
Friday, November 13, 2015 1:11 PM
Students at Amherst College are demanding that the school's president accede to a list of demands that would effectively eliminate free speech on campus.
The demands, which were presented in person Thursday evening to college President Biddy Martin, are outlined in a letter published by Amherst Soul, which also notes that the students expect action to be initiated within "24-48 hours" and completed by Wednesday, November 18 (roughly six days after they were first issued). If those deadlines are not met, they warn, "we will organize and respond in a radical manner, through civil disobedience."
The ultimatum grew out of a sit-in held earlier in the day as part of the "Stand with Mizzou" movement, during which members of a variety of student organizations on campus collaborated to identify the actions they believe must be taken in response to the "legacy of oppression" at Amherst, notably through the creation of "safe spaces" and the criminalization of "offensive" sentiments.
"We have begun this movement, Amherst Uprising, in an effort to change the status quo for a more just and inclusive environment within our campus," the letter states. "We demand that Amherst become a leader in the fight to promote a better social climate towards individuals who have been systematically oppressed."
First, the students demand that both President Martin and Board of Trustees Chairman Cullen Murphy issue statements apologizing to those impacted by "injustices including but not limited to our institutional legacy of white supremacy, colonialism, anti-black racism, anti-Latinx [sic] racism, anti-Native American racism, anti-Native/indigenous racism, anti-Asian racism, anti-Middle Eastern racism, heterosexism, cis-sexism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism, ableism, mental health stigma, and classism."
Anticipating a negative reaction to their letter, the students also insist that the campus police department "must issue a statement of protection and defense from any form of violence, threats, or retaliation of any kind resulting from this movement."
More specifically, they want President Martin to denounce the actions of students who displayed "All Lives Matter" and "Free Speech" posters, and to warn the student body that in the future, "racially insensitive" speech would merit disciplinary action.
Not content merely to purge the school of opinions with which they disagree, the students also demand that they be given time off from class and that the school's mascot be expunged.
"Dean Epstein must ask faculty to excuse all students from all 5 College classes, work shifts, and assignments from November 12th, 2015 to November 13th, 2015 given their organization of and attendance at the Sit-In," reads the eighth item on the list. A few bullet points further down, they add, "Dean Epstein must encourage faculty to provide a space for students to discuss this week's events during class time."
Regarding the school's mascot, the students want Martin to release a statement by Friday at 5:00 p.m. "that condemns the inherently racist nature of the unofficial mascot, the Lord Jeff," and to follow up by encouraging the removal of all related imagery from campus.
Lord Jeff is a reference to Amherst's namesake, British Field Marshal Jeffery Amherst, who some historians believe encouraged the distribution of smallpox-infected blankets to Native Americans with whom the British were fighting during the French and Indian War.
After the list of demands concludes, the students note that they will require further, as-yet unspecified, action from the administration, as well.
"Please acknowledge that all of these statements of apology are not the end all—that they are only a part of short-term healing and by no means achieve all of the goals we will set forth," the letter states. "We are in the process of finalizing long-term goals which we hope to collaborate on regularly with all members of the community."
Campus Reform is currently awaiting comment from Amherst on President Martin's response to the students' demands, and will update this story once the statement has been provided.

Caroline Flack's former boyfriend Lewis Burton seen hugging mystery woman amid Lottie Tomlinson romance rumours
Lewis Burton, who dated the late Caroline Flack before her death, has been photographed embracing an unknown woman outside restaurant Sexy Fish.
Ayla SoguksuDigital Reporter
Caroline Flack's former boyfriend Lewis Burton has been photographed hugging a mystery woman.
The 28 year old was spotted wearing a grey and white striped long sleeve shirt alongside a pair of navy shorts, white trainers and a blue cap as he stepped out into the British sunshine after lunching inside Mayfair's Sexy Fish restaurant on Thursday.
The tennis coach appeared stagnant as he leaned in to hug the unidentifiable blonde woman, who was dressed in an oversized white shirt dress alongside some strappy wedge heels.

Lewis's outing comes weeks after it was claimed he has been "growing close" to One Direction star Louis Tomlinson's sister Lottie.
The model is said to have found a "friendship" with Lottie, 21, five months after the tragic death of Love Island presenter Caroline.
The former tennis pro was reportedly seen "arriving at his flat" with Lottie and "appeared to be holding hands".
A source told Mail Online: "They have been meeting up in secret for weeks but their newfound friendship hasn't gone unnoticed by mutual pals.
Lewis has reportedly been "growing close" to Lottie Tomlinson
"Not all of Caroline's friends are happy with how the situation appears to be developing but can understand that both Lottie and Lewis have been there for each other as a shoulder to cry on.
"Lewis spent last week in Marbella while Lottie was in St Tropez the weekend previous, they couldn't wait to be reunited with each other on Friday."
It comes months after Caroline, who's mother hit out at the CPS for claiming it wasn't "right" to press charges against her daughter, tragically took her own life in a flat in London after she was arrested for assault by beating last year.
An inquest into Caroline's death revealed she told police officers that she had "whacked him round the head" (Image: Instagram/Lewis Burton)
An inquest into the star's death heard that Caroline told officers she "whacked" boyfriend Lewis but didn't mean to cause him harm.
She told an officer at the scene: "I did it. I whacked him round the head.
"I admit I did it. I used the phone. I had his phone in one hand and mine in the other.
"I whacked him round the head. There was no excuse for it. I was just upset. I admit I did it."
The court heard that she did not want to hurt Lewis (Image: Instagram/Lewis Burton)

The inquest heard that in interview, Caroline said she "flicked" Lewis in a bid to wake him up.
She thought she might have dropped the phone on his head but she did not believe she caused the injury and she did not know how it had happened.
Detective Inspector Lauren Bateman, of the Metropolitan Police, said: "It sounded like she was saying it was an accident, not an assault."

The court heard that in her interview with police, Caroline said: "I admit I did it. I never hit him over the head. It was a sideways hit.
"He was never hit over the head. It was reckless. I whacked him. It wasn't aggressive. The whole thing feels very blurry.''
The court heard that Caroline said she felt "horrible" when she saw the blood. She had not wanted to hurt him. That was not her intention.

Sir John Bernard, 2nd Baronet (November 163025 June 1679) was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1654 and 1660.

Bernard was born at Northampton, the son of Sir Robert Bernard, 1st Baronet and his first wife Elizabeth Tallakerne, daughter of Sir John Tallakerne. His father had been MP for Huntingdon in 1640. Bernard was educated at Huntingdon and was admitted at Middle Temple on 21 January 1645 and at Christ's College, Cambridge on 12 April 1646.

In 1654 Bernard was elected Member of Parliament for Huntingdon in the First Protectorate Parliament. He was re-elected in 1656 for the Second Protectorate Parliament and in 1659 for the Third Protectorate Parliament. In 1660, he was re-elected MP for Huntingdon in the Convention Parliament. Bernard succeeded to the baronetcy on the death of his father in 1666. As lord of the manor, he made himself highly unpopular, using his legal knowledge to eject small freeholders from their property.

Bernard died at the age of 48 and was buried at Brampton church, Northamptonshire, where he is commemorated on a marble monument, against the south wall.

Bernard married firstly Elizabeth St John, daughter of Oliver St John, Lord Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, by whom he had one son, Robert, his successor, and eight daughters, of whom Joanna, the fifth, married the Rev. Dr. Richard Bentley, archdeacon and prebendary of Ely, and master of Trinity College, Cambridge. Her portrait, by William Wissing, is in the College's collection.

Bernard married secondly Grace Shuckburgh, daughter of Sir Richard Shuckburgh, of Shuckburgh, Warwickshire and his wife Grace Holte, daughter of Sir Thomas Holte, 1st Baronet. They had no children. After his death, she married secondly Thomas Mariet. She died in 1721.

I WANT MY CHILD BACK!!
I am a mess. I have cried myself to sleep every night this past week. I tear up without reason.
I have this indescribable longing to see my child, hold her and be with her. I went onto Vic's Facebook and went through all her photos. Most of the photos on her FB are "tagged" photos of mine. I went through the photos and "spoke" to Vic. I remembered the wonderful mother and daughter that she was. I looked at her journey, the amount of photos where she is in bed with the boys lying with her. The sad thing is that it is truly only the tip of the iceberg.
I found this note on her FB that I had never seen before. Vic posted this 3 days before my dad died.
Today Hospice came to access my Grandfather… They dripped him & made him comfortable. He has lost his swallowing reflex, sleeps most of the day, is completely bedridden & can barely talk… The suddenness of his deterioration is very difficult to comprehend. Please could you all say a big prayer for my Gramps and especially my Mom, who lost her best friend of 25 years, age 51 due to a heart attack last Tues. My Mother is one of the strongest, bravest people I know.. How do we say goodbye, how do I take my Boys to say their Goodbyes tomorrow, how do we accept that this incredible man has such little time left regardless of the fact that we all know that its best for him. How can I be strong for my babies when my heart breaks all over again, every day when I see him… Especially my Eunice Friends, you will all remember how desperately my Gramps and Gran loved and spoilt me and how VERY MUCH they meant to me… I don't want to live without him even though I realise that is extremely selfish, but I love my Grandfather so desperately, It's not fair… All I ask for is compassion… Compassion for Gramps and my Mother… Thank you to everyone for all your love & support through everything… Love Vic.
I wonder whether she is around us? I wonder if she is peaceful and happy? I wonder if she misses us as desperately as we miss her.
Yesterday a friend of mine celebrated her 60th birthday. Her daughter posted a beautiful letter on her FB page. Tears started trickling down my cheeks. I will never receive another birthday card or wish from Vic. I will never celebrate another Mother's Day with Vic and neither will her boys!!
Oh dear God will this agony every stop?

Another important town is Monza (the Formula One circuit).
Lombardy borders the regions of Piedmont, Emilia-Romagna, Veneto, Trentino-Alto Adige, and the country of Switzerland.
The region is named for the Lombards or Langobardi, who came to this region after the fall of the (western) Roman Empire. There was a close relationship between the Frankish, Bavarian and Lombard nobility for many centuries.

CAP Summer Concert Series brings Jason Marsalis, Bria Skonberg and others to Coral Gables
TAGS: Classical Music Music
Back in the 1980s, a church in Coral Gables decided to put on a summer concert series. More than three decades later, they're still at it, and the concert series has become the basis of an expanding community-arts program.
From June through August, the Coral Gables Congregational United Church of Christ presents its 34th annual series of jazz and classical concerts, welcoming world-renowned artists to its historic building across from the Biltmore Hotel.
In addition to the big names, concertgoers will have a chance to see stars of the future as Miami-Dade County students from the church's Community Arts Program (CAP) perform on opening night. And the public can join the students in master classes presented by several of the series' performers.
The first show, on June 13, features Tony Desare, who's had three albums reach the top 10 on the Billboard jazz chart. Named a rising-star male vocalist some years back by the jazz magazine Downbeat, he'll perform standards and classics.
The CAP Miami Jazz Institute All-Star Jazz Ensemble will open the show. The group is one of several made up of youngsters who study at the CAP Conservatory of the Arts, which offers instruction on a sliding fee scale from September to May.
"Part of what the concert series provides to the kids is No. 1, they automatically come to all these concerts for free," says Mark Hart, CAP's executive and artistic director. "It extends our curriculum into the summertime." Hart says that when he was a young student, a teacher told him that going to a good concert was worth three lessons with the best instructor he could find.

Trumpeter and vocalist Bria Skonberg appears next, on June 27. With a style that harks back to the New Orleans sound of early jazz, her band will include local standouts Shelly Berg on piano and bassist Chuck Bergeron.
The series goes classical on July 11 with Kenny Broberg, who won the silver medal two years ago at the Van Cliburn International Piano Competition, when he was 23. The Minneapolis native has played as a soloist with the Royal Philharmonic as well as symphonies in Sydney and Seattle, among others. He will teach a master class, as will percussionist Jason Marsalis, who performs July 25. A scion of the famed New Orleans musical family, Marsalis will play vibraphone as leader of his 21st Century Trad Band, a trio with bass and drums.
Dafnis Prieto, whose big band won a Grammy this year for the album "Back to the Sunset," appears Aug. 8 with a smaller ensemble. The drummer's quartet includes pianist Martin Bejerano, a local favorite.
Quartetto Gelato, a Toronto group that has played the series several times, returns by audience request for Aug. 22's closing night. The foursome, which includes a World Accordion Champion, performs a wide variety of genres, including classical, folk, opera and more in a freewheeling style.
Skonberg, Broberg, Marsalis and Prieto will conduct master classes the morning after their performances. These are free, open to the public and held in the 450-seat sanctuary of the church. Founded in 1923 and built in Mediterranean Revival style, the building is on the National Register of Historic Places.
"It's an intimate space and you can really see these artists in a way you wouldn't in a larger space," Hart says.
CAP Summer Concert Series performances begin 8 p.m. alternate Thursdays from June 13 to Aug. 22 at the Coral Gables Congregational United Church of Christ, 3010 DeSoto Blvd., across from the Biltmore Hotel.

The Amazing History of the Amazing Richard Kirschman, Part VII
November 6, 2018 | by Pat Holt
Dear Readers: Richard Kirschman died peacefully at home in Point Reyes Station on November 6, a dear friend to many and a voice in West Marin that will never be silenced. I miss him already. — Pat
Word from Inverness journalist Mark Dowie adds yet another adventure to the six-part posting about Richard Kirschman of Dogtown and Point Reyes. I called that series Changing the World, One Idea at a Time, but Mark's suggestion reflects just about everybody's awe, so here is Part VII, and it is amazing, as Mark explains below:
Richard circa 1970
If one more chapter were to be added to your recent series, which might be renamed The Amazing History of the Amazing Richard Kirschman, it could be about the lawsuit Richard filed in the early 1970s against the US Navy.
Richard was a retired Navy officer and knew from his years of service that when Navy ships entered urban ports around the world, they unloaded their human waste into harbor waters.
So he sued, hoping to force the Navy to install sewage treatment plants or gigantic holding tanks on all Navy ships.
When he traveled to Europe, Richard asked me to keep an eye on the litigation. I didn't have to do much more than call his lawyers from time to time and ask them how the case was proceeding. I nonetheless regarded myself, and still do, as an informal co-complainant in the case … WHICH WE WON!
The most memorable vignette I recall from this time was a comment Richard made when he appeared on a popular morning radio talk show (Dan Sorkin's?). Asked about the lawsuit, he observed that any aircraft carrier sailing through San Francisco Bay with a full crew was the equivalent of the entire town of Sausalito flushing all of its toilets directly into the Bay, every day. (more…)
Richard Kirschman: Changing the World, One Idea at a Time, Part VI
October 15, 2018 | by Pat Holt
I started this series wanting to describe only one thing about Richard Kirschman because it fascinates so many — that is, his role as creator of the now-legendary $3 Coin Project in West Marin.
The $3 Coin: Strength in Community
The "gold" coin (actually made of brass) is a beautiful $3 souvenir that has generated more than $50,000 for good causes without anybody spending a dime. (I explained how it works in Part I and still can't believe it.)
But that was only a gate opener. The ingenious projects that Kirschman has launched over the years have been the subject of constant delight and surprise, especially in West Marin. Many account for all Parts II through V, yet they offer only a glimpse of an imagination so fresh and original that it's been percolatin' well into Richard's 80s.
Hark the Herald
So now in this final post let's turn to Richard Kirschman not as inventor or activist but as a modern-day harbinger. Very often, he's the guy who notices some key thing the rest of us don't see. He questions, he investigates, he provokes. He suggests, he teases, he inspires.
Sometimes he passes out buttons he's made himself to stimulate public consciousness. People laugh, but they get the point, and on to lapels and jackets they go.
And many times he sends out an alert.
In the 1980s, when it seemed smart and liberating to switch to decaf coffee, Richard was among the critically thinking few who warned consumers (in Medical Self-Care magazine) to be on the lookout for carcinogenic solvents used in most decaf processes. (more…)
Richard Kirschman, Changing the World – One Idea at a Time: Part V
October 6, 2018 | by Pat Holt
Part of the fun of writing about Richard Kirschman lies in discovering an entrepreneur of a half a century ago who might be unrecognizable today.
The young Richard Kirschman was a clean-shaven, sharp-dressin', up-and-coming entrerpreneur, considered so cool in the 1960s he might have walked out of the pages of Gentlemen's Quarterly magazine. As the society writer for the San Francisco Examiner realized in 1967, he was quite a catch with the ladies:
Richard in the '60s (standing, second from right) with local movers and shakers, including restaurateur Enrico Banducci (in beret, right) and visitor Woody Allen (left)
"At 34, real estate developer Kirschman is hardly up to his ankles in the San Francisco financial waters, and he finds them very inviting. Socially a debonair, sought-after bachelor, he's a fast-thinking, clear-eyed entrepreneur … the young executive who sails, skis, flies, glides, sculpts, bags and cooks his own ducks."
Yes, a man who couldn't have been more romantic for his time, was Richard K. Did he know the 180-degree turn his life would take soon afterward? As it happened, he was right on the edge of "the good life" all along.
The Question Always Out There
Richard grew up on Long Island in the post-World War II era, when it was possible to have liberal Republicans for parents. In 1946, his mother noticed a fledgling organization called the United Nations moving into a former weapons factory near their home. Peace was in the air, so she walked over to the nearly securityless building and offered to help as a volunteer. Soon the UN depended on her to run tours as one of its first official docents. (more…)
Changing the World, One Idea at a Time: Part IV
September 28, 2018 | by Pat Holt
"Thus began Richard in West Marin: He had ideas, he invented, he petitioned. He studied, learned, asked questions and offered pragmatic ideas, always with a smile and good humor." — The Point Reyes Light
I love the above reporter's description of Richard Kirschman as a person who invents new things as well as petitions for acceptance of new ideas. He is an activist who's been impatient and frustrated with bureaucracies all his life, yet he believes in the power of local community and what it takes to introduce the possibility of radical change. Plus he's a persistent SOB when you come down to it.
Richard in his 40s
Let's look at three remarkable examples:
GIVING THROUGH YOUTH: Teaching Kids Philanthropy
For some years, Richard had this Great Idea to do more than send personal checks and other contributions to charities he believed in. Instead, he wanted to give money to children in nearby schools and let them decide what to do with it.
At first he asked teachers to set up a curriculum in which students could learn about philanthropy. The kids wouldn't just read about it; they'd contribute actual cash to a cause that they themselves had investigated, argued for and eventually voted on. That level of engagement would invite a personal understanding of the value of charity, a word that could use a little updating, inspiration-wise . (more…)
Changing the World, One Idea at a Time: Part III
"Every now and then, a person will have a good idea for an invention, but the concept rarely goes beyond idle speculation and cocktail party chatter. Richard Kirschman is not one of those people."
So wrote a reporter for the Marin Independent Journal about 20 years ago, and no, Richard Kirschman has never been a person to hide his ideas behind "idle speculation."
A Bolinas fire fighter for 20 years
For half a century he's been known in West Marin as the everywhere-at-once First Responder, activist, inventor, farmer, letter-writer, real estate developer (the good kind), philanthropist, self-publisher and all-around Great Idea guy.
It's the inventor with a sense of humor I'd like to follow here, the guy who looks at society's complexity and notices something so obvious that everybody's missed it. Typically he can't stop thinking about it until a solution appears in his mind, and then he's filled with excitement, and off and running he goes.
That was the case with the $3 Coin Project and Ten Thousand Words You Already Know in Spanish, as we have seen in previous posts. But the range of ingenuity and good humor in Richard's many inventions will always astound. Here are a few examples:
The 'Rickshaw Ring' Project
I bet every Westerner who's traveled to India has had this thought: How do they do it? That is, how do rickshaw drivers do the back-breaking work of peddling tourists around on soft (not paved) roads? All day, every day, and then, when a hill approaches, they have to get out and pull the rickshaw, with you and the kids and the luggage sitting there, adding weight. And they charge you the equivalent of U.S. pennies for the service. (more…)
Changing the World, One Idea at a Time: Part II
It may not seem that a $4.95 paperback with nothing but word lists could make a difference to an industry — maybe to the world — but that was the potential I saw in Richard Kirschman's self-published book 25 years ago.
In those days I was on the lookout for self-published gems outside the New York book trade. I believed a connection existed between the Gold Rush era of the mid-1800s and Northern California's small-press revolution more than a century later. True, not many of the 300,000 people who came West made money from the Gold Rush. But they all believed that anything was possible when they got to California.
This idea, that breaking away from institutions in the East can make people more personally creative and adventurous in the West, seemed to thrive from one generation to the next, especially in the Bay Area. The legendary Whole Earth Catalog (1968) started out as a self-published list of tools, for example. Hundreds of author-produced books, including my favorite, A History of Doorknobs in the United States, followed that same path: The inspiration to self-publish, which so rarely occurred to writers in New York, very often felt like the only way to go, 3000 miles away, in Berkeley or San Francisco.
Richard had experienced traditional success in 1961 when Doubleday published his New York on the House, a guidebook listing free exhibits and events. But just as connections to the mainstream often fade as authors leave the hub of publishing in New York, so does that anything-is-possible belief flow more mightily from within. (more…)

ISCM Celebrates 15th Anniversary Annual Dinner
BD May 10, 2019 Media Outreach No comments
HONG KONG, CHINA – Media OutReach – 9th May 2019 – The Institute of Shopping Centre Management (ISCM) 15th Anniversary Annual Dinner was successfully held on 26 April at the JW Marriott Hong Kong with over 500 guests in attendance. Among the professional guests included Mr. CHAN Fan, Frank JP, Secretary for Transport and Housing; Mr. YING Yiu Hong, Stanley, JP, Permanent Secretary for Transportation & Housing (Housing) and Director of Housing; Mr. WONG Chi Cho, Joe, JP, Commissioner for Tourism; Dr. Jimmy Chiang, Acting Director-General of Investment Promotion of Invest Hong Kong, various distinguished industry professionals, scholars and retailers.
The annual dinner event reflects the institute's long-term vision with the theme "Shopping Malls — The Heart of Smart Cities", a conscious reflection of the growing connectivity and evolving technologies which make our cities and shopping experiences smarter and better for all. Hong Kong is often recognised as Asia's "shopping paradise", and shopping centres remain at the heart and soul of the Greater Bay Area's economy and people's daily lives. That said, ISCM believes the industry and its leaders must remain focused on improving industry standards, cultivating international perspectives and embracing innovation to ensure the city's shopping malls remain at the core of local smart city development.
Super Connector in Asia
Mr. Baldwin KO, Chairman of ISCM said: "Over the past 15 years, the ISCM always value a consistent conviction: enhancing the professional level of shopping centre management, and strengthening trusted connections among industry peers. In future, we will also strive to build on this by encouraging integration with professionals across the Greater Bay Area, Asia, and more as we continue planning study tours and seminars for our members to broaden their horizons."
Fulfil Corporate Social Responsibility
ISCM has been taken Corporate Social Responsibility initiatives seriously by organizing different charity activities in order to make contribution to society. Since the institute's first charity auction in 2013, the event has grown into a huge calendar spectacle which has been organised for seven consecutive years. ISCM has been raising funds every year for important causes such as St. James' Settlement, Sheng Kung Hui St. Christopher's Home and the Fu Hong Society. As part of this year event celebrations, in addition to a charity tender, ISCM committee members have prepared homemade the pineapple tarts for charity sale, resulting in a total of HK$180,000 to be donated to the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Welfare Council Limited charity to bring love and hope to the community.
Cultivate the Industry's Future
In addition to charity contributions, ISCM has also introduced the Scholarship Award this year to support and award outstanding university students majoring in shopping mall management-related disciplines. This year, our honourable members Dr. Roger Chan and Professor Leo Sin Yat-ming were invited to present the scholarship to distinguished students from The Chinese University of Hong Kong, The Hong Kong polytechnic University, The University of Hong Kong and HKU SPACE. The awarded students were also invited to join the dinner to integrate with professionals in the field so they can gain a deeper understanding about the industry.

Most Americans are unsure about what the recent tax bill signed by President Donald Trump will mean to the average nonprofit donor. Most nonprofits should again turn to their databases and list brokers to set their target for an uneven or even minimal growth prospect for the new year. Mailing smarter should be your 2018 goal.
Some nonprofit organizations have eliminated hard copy direct mail entirely. Why? Their donor base is younger, more affluent, less apt to trust the value of hard copy mail, which cuts down valuable trees and is the cause of all global warming problems of the world. OK, not as extreme as that might seem, but many nonprofits have culled out their older, more reliable donors from their lists and focused on email marketing to target a whole new dimension of younger people exclusively. Some nonprofits are relying on monthly email newsletters to keep their donors informed as to what specific person or groups their nonprofit has helped all due to email database clientele.
Some other nonprofits do cull out their lapsed or expired donors entirely to streamline their existing donor pool better and to keep active, current and relevant to these new donors. What are your plans for 2018? Have your board of directors offered any clues or suggestions to trash your hard copy direct mail marketing plans entirely?
My mailbox still received many hard copy direct-mail marketing offers from the usual suspects: Save the Children, Amnesty International and others. That is not to say that I was not also a recipient of email solicitations from The Trust for Public Lands, Halo Trust and Heifer International.
To the normal donor of any age group, the decision to give is still based upon one's personal beliefs, moral conscience, which nonprofits will best use your dollars wisely and usefully to its maximum benefit. Using a simple A-6 invitation envelope with a compelling outer envelope image beckoned me to investigate further this "invitations to contribute" mailing from a HIV/AIDS organization. How could I say no? Would it have been more appealing to me via email to contribute to the same organization? No. I prefer direct mail and since I have never been approached by this organization before, I could see that they had the vision to stick to their tried and true hard copy invitation to invite me to help cure this horrible disease via hard copy direct mail.
Adding my name to their lists strengthened their resolve to retain the values of personal communications that seem distracted and rudderless in an email format. How can one not give to an organization who helps those less fortunate that have this terrible disease? The organization looked outside their comfort zone of "usual donors," and with the help of their list broker, found a donor like myself who would respond to a "simple invitation to contribute letter." A very simple and effective format of mailing less to a more diverse donor that is responsive and offering a simple message got me on the hook, line and donation. Mailing smarter is the real goal for any nonprofit in any unsure economic crystal ball forecast. It should also be the goal of the donor to seek out those nonprofits that best match their own beliefs, hopes and vision for a better world.
Now is the time for nonprofits to try something unique and something different to a new audience, and now is the time to mail less, get more donations and mail smarter.

For Chinese people around the world, the period of January to the first week of February is a special time. This is the period which hosts the Chinese New Year. As per the Lunar calendar, the Chinese New Year falls on February 5 this year.
There 12 zodiacs in the Chinese culture, each represented by an animal. It's similar to the western zodiacs but Chinese zodiacs run for an entire year. 2018 marked the year of the Dog, 2019 welcomes the year of the Pig. The Chinese New Year is celebrated with much zeal around the world, especially in China where festivities can go for as long as a week.

The first on our list of VPN services of the best Chinese New Year VPN deals is FastestVPN. Hailing from the Cayman Islands, FastestVPN is relatively new in the market. But in the period of a year and a half, the VPN has earned strong reputation among top VPN providers, owing to positive feedback from consumers.
Though with such new services, it's common to expect a few setbacks. But FastestVPN delivers a very strong catalogue of features that you'll find in the more established VPN services. The only apparent advantage the more established names have is the number of VPN servers.
Where the other services employ more than a thousand, FastestVPN currently has 150+ servers worldwide. But these servers are P2P-optimized, so you can expect to torrent without any throttling. It comes AES 256-bit encryption, Malware Protection, Ad-Blocker, Unlimited Bandwidth, and simultaneous connections with up to 10 devices.
This top-rated VPN delivers the best-in-class features and unmatched quality. Hailed as one of the best in the business, check out its Chinese New Year VPN deals.
ExpressVPN is one of the few VPNs with a large global network. The 2000+ servers in 94 countries provide an experience that only few VPNs can match. ExpressVPN offers dedicated apps for platforms that include Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, and Linux.
That's not all. With Router support, you can expect to extend VPN protection to devices like video-games consoles or Roku. All of its packages come with 30-day money-back guarantee and the ability to connect up to 3 devices simultaneously.
CyberGhost features the second-largest VPN network in the market. With 3500+ servers worldwide, you can expect to browse with best performance even during peak traffic. More VPN servers covering more geographic locations actually give you the ability to connect with unlock more geographic locations.
Fortunately, if you're undecided on picking up CyberGhost, you can take it for spin. CyberGhost offers a 24-hour trial to new customers. But beyond, you have the choice to ask for a refund by using the 45-day money-back guarantee to your advantage.
The list of CyberGhost's features include AES 256-bit encryption, Kill Switch, DNS/IP leak protection, unlimited bandwidth, and more. Platform support includes dedicated apps for major platforms and Router.
What instantly separates NordVPN from the others is the number of servers worldwide. Boasting a network of 5000+ servers, NordVPN easily holds the crown for the largest VPN server network. What that means for you, as a user, is smooth performance during peak traffic hours.
NordVPN doesn't stop there. It's a seriously competitive VPN with industry-leading features. In addition to the military-grade AES 256-bit encryption, the option to switch between protocols enable the best compatibility with different platforms.

Paul Pogba's calm nerves and David De Gea's quick reflexes kept Manchester United in the hunt for a top-four finish in the Premier League on Saturday.
It was a much-needed win for United, but it wasn't a convincing performance as the hosts were outplayed for large spells and benefited from two disputed refereeing decisions. West Ham had a goal disallowed for offside in the first half before the hosts were awarded a soft penalty as Robert Snodgrass was judged to have fouled Juan Mata when the two collided in the area.
The win ended a run of four losses in five games in all competitions for United and kept Solskjaer's team two points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.
For Brighton, though, the problems are mounting after losing in the FA Cup semifinals last weekend. Chris Hughton's side has not scored in its last four matches, and another loss on Tuesday would leave the team just two points ahead of Cardiff.
Moura made sure Tottenham didn't miss injured striker Harry Kane as the Brazilian winger became the first player to score a hat trick in the club's new stadium after Victor Wanyama opened the scoring in the 24th minute.
Redmond put his team ahead in the second minute and then restored the hosts' lead in the 30th, just two minutes after Willy Boly had equalized for Wolves. Shane Long added a third for the Saints, which moved eight points clear of Cardiff.
Fulham finally managed to keep its first clean sheet of 2019 to give caretaker boss Scott Parker his first victory in charge. Captain Tom Cairney and Ryan Babel scored for the hosts to end Everton's three-match unbeaten run.

promotes public awareness of design at the intersection of business, culture, and education.
Sara Little Turnbull, a trail blazing designer and design consultant, operated at the nexus of design, culture,
commerce, and education during the second half of the 20th Century. She described her practice as
"applied cultural anthropology."
Sara Little Turnbull created a Foundation Trust as a vehicle to continue her work and to reflect her love of design education at the intersection of business and culture. The Trust was formally created in 2015 and officially launched in 2018 with a mission to serve Sara Little Turnbull's legacy and vision.
The vision of Sara Little Turnbull is difficult to define: innovative, anthropological, observational,
inter-disciplinary, consumer focused, but without any fixed methodology. Her legacy is easier: a long list of
innovative products, successful corporations and CEOs, inspired Stanford University graduates, and the
dedication of her close friends and mentees who have been charged with sharing her stories and
continuing her legacy.

Born Sara Finkelstein in New York City in 1917, she attended Girls Commercial High School in Brooklyn. In 1935, she won a scholarship to Parsons School of Design, where she graduated in 1939. This launched one of our country's most stunning careers in design, business, and education.
At 4'11", she was called "Little Sara." Adopting "Little," she used the name "Sara Little," throughout her career. Selecting the asterisk as her symbol, she explained, "I'm the something extra. I'm the catalyst."
After college, Sara worked at Marshall Fields as a furniture designer and assistant art director and at Blaker Advertising Agency at art director. In 1941, she joined the staff at House Beautiful magazine, where she wrote the "Girl with a Future" column and served as Decorating Editor, a position she held for nearly two decades.
She wrote prescient articles about changing American lifestyles post-World War II. For instance, she anticipated the family room when she encouraged readers to create more informal spaces in their homes. She understood that women would continue their desire to work, and wrote articles for young professionals about sharing apartments with roommates. Living and, eventually, operating her business out of a 400-square-foot apartment, Sara wrote about her passion for simplicity, versatility, and organizing small spaces for maximum domestic efficiency.
Magazine advertisers were eager to hear Sara's insights about women and the domestic market. In 1958, she launched Sara Little Design Consultant and worked for more than 60 years as a corporate design, strategy, culture and marketing consultant. Her clients included Corning, Revlon, Campbell's Soup, 3M, General Mills, Neiman Marcus, Dupont, Ford, Macy's, Coca-Cola, among many others. She has been described as "corporate America's secret weapon.
Sara was one of America's first industrial designers. She was also a self-described cultural anthropologist, finding inspiration during her extensive travels throughout the world when she studied how people in different places engaged with their environments. She also found inspiration in nature's beauty, engineering and design. She famously developed designs for ergonomic pot handles after observing cheetahs in the wild, grasping their prey at high speed.
In 1988, Sara founded the Process of Change Laboratory for Innovation and Design, a design studio and archive imbedded within the Stanford Graduate School of Business. At Stanford, Sara engaged students in tracking trends and challenged interdisciplinary teams to address real world challenges through design. She encouraged students to embrace curiosity and to explore the "why" before designing the "how." Sara's students became leaders in engineering, design and business throughout the world. Sara is a beloved mentor to many.
Sara's legacy is realized as a living legacy, alive through the people, initiatives, and organizations supported by the Sara Little Turnbull Foundation.
How pleased Sara would be to see that she continues to make an extraordinary impact and will for
many years to come—in fact for many lifetimes—with the programs you are funding in her name.
My life was certainly impacted by Sara. Never had I met a woman of her generation that had defied
the norms of her day and utilized design as a strategic initiative vs a pure aesthetic. From Pyrex to
makeup, she created a new category of design for better living. She was fearless and forever

Principal, 1185 Design
Sara was a daring trailblazer, a force of nature and of design, and
a consummate expert. She was also the most generous,
supportive, and exacting mentor. It is heartwarming to know that
her foundation will pursue one of her main goals in life: seeing
other women succeed.

Research & Development, The Museum of Modern Art
When I first met Sarah at Stanford, nearly two decades ago, she invited me to meet her students,
mostly males, who hung on to every word of this tiny, lively, powerful woman.
[At] a Metropolis conference…she came up to me…and said, 'My Dear, you're like Picasso—you throw
your colors up on a canvas, and at the end the composition makes sense.' Her words still resonate,
reminding me of this generous, original, and supportive woman—the kind of person I strive to be.
Susan S. Szenasy
Director of Design Innovation and former Editor in Chief, Metropolis
Sara was a passionate supporter of design and
designers, and believed in the role design
could play in the larger world. She was both
generous and visionary, yet very low key about
her own considerable experiences.

Sara attended our Consumer Products meetings at Corning about once a month. She was always
prepared with insightful presentations that brought the needs and wants of the American Homemaker
into our consciousness. We also met with her for retail visits and at trade shows where we discussed
products and our competition.
Sara had the ear of our market managers, all the way to Lee Waterman, Vice President of the
Consumer Products Division of Corning Glass Works, who initially spearheaded the development of
the Corning Ware line. Knowing her experience as editor of House Beautiful magazine, Lee hired Sara
to help Corning understand the American homemaker.
She provided a dimension of knowledge and encouragement that was key in understanding the trends
effecting consumer needs related to the products we were designing, developing and marketing. Sara
was key to the success of important product lines such as Corning Ware, special lines of Pyrex Ware,
Centura Tableware, and Corelle.
Sara guided us to provide the consumer with simple vessels that could be used for food preparation,
serving, and storage. Vessels made from Corning Ware, for example, could go from the stovetop,
broiler, or oven to the table, then, to the fridge or freezer, and then, to the microwave and back to the
table. The versatility of these round-trip vessels saved time, space, and energy.
Over the years, all that Sara predicted has happened in spades. All that she espoused is as relevant
today as it was then.
Herb Dann
Manager of Tableware Product Development; Consumer Products Design Manager,
Corning Glass Works. (now Corning Inc.)
I learned almost everything I know about marketing from Sara. She understood the cues that made
people raise their eyebrows and smile."
My first job after graduating from Pratt was Head of Exhibit Design at Corning. Sara was consulting
with Corning's consumer products division and she took me under her wing. We visited the
housewares shows in Chicago together to analyze the displays. Sara understood how to merchandize
and market consumer products. She knew how to make a marketing manager's "price special" sing
quality with all sorts of advantages that made a dining table virbrant or a kitchen's aroma say
nutritious.
Sara worked with Stanley Marcus in the 1960s to produce the outlandish offerings in the Neiman
Marcus catalogues — a week on the most exotic islands in the South Pacific, round-the-world ultra first
class cruises or flights with landings and accommodations at the out-of-the-way destinations unheard
of then.
She made the latest oddity of a food chemist's laboratory into a new main stay product that a young
housewife could rely on to transform an ordinary salad into a featured main course, or a new product
added to a child's lunch box.
Sara knew how to catch the public's imagination. She turned around mine.

Commentary: San Antonio was a foundation for my family's success
Opinion // Commentary
By Emilio Nicolas Jr., For the Express-News Oct. 26, 2019
Emilio Nicolas Sr. at KWEX-TV, a station he took over with partners and turned into the cornerstone of Univision. His professional accomplishments, and deep sense of civic responsibility are well known. But to his children, he was just "Daddy."

The passing of my father, Emilio Nicolas Sr., stirs deep appreciation for the city where our family found opportunity amid challenges.
Here, access to higher education — combined with legal segregation and racial discrimination — inspired a young Mexican immigrant who taught himself English, received two college degrees and became a leader whose efforts created new industries in the 20th century.
My father's professional accomplishments, supreme decency and deep sense of civic responsibility are well known among those who hold him in high esteem. But to my sister, brother and me, he was just "Daddy." On the passing of my father earlier this month, I want to share early memories of him.
Emilio Nicolas emigrated at age 18 from the coal mining town of Nueva Rosita in northern Mexico, where he grew up during the Great Depression. He moved to San Antonio, learned English, and studied chemistry and biology at St. Mary's University to become a physician. Although he excelled, he was not admitted to public medical schools in Texas because of his ethnicity.
He continued his education at Trinity University, earning a master's degree in biology and working as a researcher. He took a part-time job at the country's only Spanish language radio station, KCOR-AM. He met my mother, Irma, there and began a series of momentous transitions, from science to media, radio to television, from running one TV station to organizing and running a group of stations. The rest, as they say, is broadcasting history.
A few days before he passed, I reminded my father of our special times together. These memories are a journey through midcentury San Antonio that was a crucible for change for Mexican Americans. It was the last time I saw him smile and shed a tear.
From 1953 to 1955, My sister, Miriam, and I spent our first few years in a one-bedroom house off Fredericksburg Road. It was a humble beginning. My father worked long hours at the lab and KCOR. When our grandfather Raoul Cortez opened KCOR-TV, Daddy dedicated himself to broadcasting. Later, when the station nearly failed, he took it over with partners and changed the call letters to KWEX-TV. His hard work began to pay off, and we moved to a two-bedroom house on Hillwood Street.
From there, he sometimes took me on an evening walk to the Bowlerama. We played the baseball pinball machine with the few coins he had. He loved baseball. Sometimes he would even buy me a strawberry milkshake. I felt happy, proud and loved as we walked home on those special nights.
By 1963, big changes came to the Nicolas household. My brother, Guillermo, was born, and Dad's efforts to attract national advertisers bore fruit. He moved our family to a new home on Paseo Encinal.
He began to instill his work ethic in me. I remember trying to sleep late my first day of summer vacation after eighth grade at Mount Sacred Heart. He woke me early in the morning and said, "It's time to get up and go to work." I dressed hurriedly and caught the bus at the end of Shook Avenue to KWEX. He wanted me to be the first person there and the last to leave. When I asked how much I would earn, he answered: "Milo, if I paid you, I would be violating the child labor laws."
I loved my time at KWEX over the next five years because I saw more of my dad. He started me as a prop boy and enjoyed watching me learn to operate most of the equipment that summer.
I left San Antonio after graduating from Trinity University and pursued a law degree. At my graduation he joked, "Well, one of us finally became some kind of doctor."
My career took me around the United States. I turned around an affiliate station in San Francisco and later, after he retired, went on to manage the New York, then the Los Angeles stations for the new Univision. He was just as proud of my work for the American and International Red Cross movement. I know Miriam and Guillermo made him proud, too. And I know he loved us. And he loved San Antonio, which remains our family's foundation.
By the time my father retired from the company to which he dedicated his life, the United States had a new industry, the Hispanic community had a national voice and his mission was completed. A life well-lived now belongs to the ages, and we thank you, San Antonio and this great country built by immigrants.

Giannis Antetokounmpo #34 of the Milwaukee Bucks warms up prior to a game against the Philadelphia 76ers on April 4, 2019 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania NOTE TO USER: User expressly acknowledges and agrees that, by downloading and/or using this Photograph, user is consenting to the terms and conditions of the Getty Images License Agreement.
Players to watch: Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo has had a career season and is the front-runner to earn the MVP while teammate Khris Middleton developed into an All-Star in 2018-19.
Curry has averaged 32.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists in three games against the Clippers this season. He scored 50 or more points on nine separate occasions and topped 60 twice as well. That'll change this weekend when he and Golden State play host to the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 1 of a Western Conference first-round series.
No. 1 Golden State Warriors vs.
Speaking of the Warriors and Rockets, they're most likely on a collision-course to meet in the second round instead of the conference finals, due to the Rockets falling to the fourth spot on the last day of the regular season.
The Lakers had made the playoffs in five successive seasons but failed to get to the Finals.
As LeBron James struggles in Los Angeles, the title of the league's best player might be up for grabs and Antetokounmpo, still just 24, is as well placed as any player to seize it. Weeks before the postseason started, the Milwaukee Bucks lost Malcolm Brogdon and Nikola Mirotic for the remainder of the regular season.
The Yahoo Sports NBA crew unanimously took the Golden State Warriors to three-peat and capture a fourth championship in five seasons, with most of us believing Stephen Curry will win his first Finals MVP over two-time victor Kevin Durant. The Minneapolis Lakers won three in a row from 1952 to 1954, with the Boston Celtics winning eight in a row between 1959 to 1966, though both runs came when the National Basketball Association had fewer teams. And because memories are short, everyone is sort of concentrating on how Houston may be the team to beat in the West because of the way they finished the regular season. Everyone has been waiting on them to flip the switch and turn into the contender they're supposed to be. When he's healthy, there's no denying that the Sixers' big man is one of the most dominant at his position.
This season, thanks to the return of Irving and Hayward, Tatum and Hayward had to adjust to different roles and bench stars like Terry Rozier had less opportunity than past year. Unlike previous years, National Basketball Association analysts, players and fans alike are still engaged in a heated debate over who should take home the hardware this June.
Considering Detroit is starting a guy at shooting guard in Wayne Ellington who couldn't even get on the court in Miami before being bought out, this one could get ugly out on the perimeter. The 2017 Most Improved Player proved that he could still better himself.
After the Bulls surrendered a 2-0 series lead to the Utah Jazz, Jordan produced a performance for the ages in Game 5, scoring 38 points despite being stricken by a stomach virus to seal a 90-88 victory in what is now known as "The Flu Game".

The Board of Trustees has done the impossible. The 19th amendment, granting women the right to vote, took nearly a century of protesting. The board figured out something even better within a week.
In honor of Women's History Month, the board sat down for a gruesome three brainstorming sessions. By the end of the second meeting, they figured it out: "women removed, feminism improved."
The decision to pursue this endeavor came in the aftermath of a second female president being sworn in last semester.
"Two female presidents in a row? We have had enough. The board decided it was time to solve feminism," an anonymous board member said. "We have decided to transfer all women to the secret Second Earth, that only the super-duper-rich know about."
Beginning next Monday, women will no longer be found on Lafayette's campus. Any woman who passes onto the grounds will be teleported to Second Earth, which orbits directly across from Earth on the other side of the sun where no one can see it, even with a telescope. The only difference there is people eat corn on the cob vertically rather than horizontally.
"I honestly can't believe no one else has thought of this yet. I guess in reality, not that many people know about Second Earth—it's just such a common thing for us we don't even question it," the board member said. "We may have been kicked out of the yacht club which really sucks. But I mean, we are solving feminism. We should get a noble prize."
