The Model United Nations of the University of Chicago (MUNUC) is an international affairs and education-centered RSO on campus. Now in our 30th year, we host an annual conference for 2,800 high-school delegates and 320 advisors at the Palmer House Hilton in downtown Chicago.
To educate high school students in the arts of debate, negotiation, and public speaking by providing a forum in which they can hone their skills.
To introduce high school students to the fascinating realities and complexities of international relations through simulation of international organizations.
To demonstrate the potential of the United Nations in resolving international problems while demonstrating its limitations.
MUNUC comprises 200+ students of all majors. Absolutely no experience is required; many members had never even heard of Model UN before they got here! All the same though, students often discover that helping make conference happen, teaching delegates, and joining a close community are formative parts of their college career.
Accessibility is important to us. Your commitment to MUNUC is for an hour a week through February, and the weekend of conference, which is February 1–4. If you want to be more involved as many choose to be, there are additional opportunities too. Your experience should also be cost-free: the cost of your involvement in conference and our auxiliary initiatives, local and international, are covered by the organization.
MUNUC 30 will be our 30th annual conference in downtown Chicago. Each year, nearly 3,000 high school students and advisors descend on the Palmer House Hilton, in addition to our 200-plus members. For four days,the Palmer House becomes a center of international debate for these students, and within each of our committees they assemble coalitions, respond to crises, and draft resolutions. Each committee is led by UChicago students — you!
Conference is a large, intricate operation that takes nearly a year to plan, and with roles available on the committee and business sides. Take a look at the Roles You Can Fill as a First Year section for more info!
Chicago Hyde Park Model United Nations Conference (CHPMUNC) seeks to bring Model UN to students on the South Side of Chicago who might otherwise not have exposure to the activity. MUNUC members go to schools around Hyde Park and host after-school classes that help high-schoolers build confidence and skill in public speaking and research, and establish a foundational knowledge of world affairs.
MUNUC sends around 20 students overseas in the summer on expenses-paid trips to run our programs in China, which include a conference in Beijing and a month-long teaching program in Chengdu. This is an exceptional opportunity to go abroad, foster deep bonds with your MUNUC friends, and work with students from vastly different backgrounds.
MUNUC is just not a conference, but a community. People who work at conference together often become close friends, and those relationships grow to extend beyond MUNUC, too. We host a number of social events throughout the year for you to get to know members across the organization, including weekly study breaks, bubble-tea socials, and committee dinners, as well as a jam-packed social program during conference weekend.
There are few places on campus where you can take on a leadership role on par with what MUNUC can offer. Whether you are an Assistant Chair helping students, a Chair overseeing hundreds of delegates, or a member of ExCom coordinating dozens of your peers, the ways for you to take on significant responsibility are unparalleled. You'll grow as a leader through MUNUC in ways that you could never learn in the classroom.
We seek a competition of ideas, not a competition of personalities. We take pride in creating a memorable experience for our delegates, and hope for them to leave our conference more confident, mature, and understanding of the world around them. And because we believe that cost shouldn't be a barrier to education, MUNUC sets our fees lower than any of our peer conferences and offers substantial need-based financial aid.
Whether it's through the weekly trainings, our summer programs where you travel overseas with your peers, or a leadership role, you'll be able to develop valuable personal and professional skills through this organization. And if you need to juggle a busy schedule, we are flexible on that too; you can be a full member of MUNUC and reap all of these benefits with a base commitment of just an hour a week.
Prior to conference, admin team members primarily assist with preparing conference materials and managing outreach to press, vendors, and consulates. Admin members also receive extensive training on business communication and other professional skills necessary to represent MUNUC to advisors and delegates. Finally at conference, the admin team runs Delegate Services, the hub of MUNUC, where attendees come to register, buy merchandise, and report any and all crises.
Assistant Chairs are an important part of all traditional committees, handling a wide range of responsibilities. Under direction of committee executives, ACs help engage students in the discussion and work with them on writing resolutions, facilitating negotiation between blocs, and answering questions. ACs function as the eyes and ears of the committee, and work closest with delegates directly.
The info team provides behind-the-scenes direction to traditional-side committees. Info members steer debate and challenge delegates through by writing informational notes and crisis updates and delivering speeches in character as an expert, world leader, or revolutionary, or other persona. In addition, info members respond to specific questions addressed from delegates to their "home government," typically relating to their country's stance on a topic.
In fast-paced continuous crisis committees, the role of an AC combines aspects of the traditional-side Assistant Chair and the Information Services member. Crisis ACs work under the direction of the Crisis Director, supplying the committee with a steady stream of updates and responding to queries and directives from individual delegates. Frequently, a crisis AC will also be present in the committee room to assist the Chair, monitor communication between the rest of the team and the Chair, and give expert speeches to delegates.
The Moderator maintains order and supervises debate in a traditional committee. While the Chair is responsible for all substantive matters, the Moderator handles procedural issues and runs committee debate under the direction of the Chair. During conference, the Moderator will answer delegate questions, help direct debate, and encourage productive discussion of the topic.
Section Editors for the Press Corps committee work closely with the Editor-in-Chief to design a mission statement, a publication schedule, and an online presence for the conference newspaper, The Phoenix. Each of the thirty high-school delegates will represent a real press publication. During conference, Section Editors are called upon to manage content for their particular section and help edit articles, and further, help delegates design a professional-looking newspaper. No prior journalistic or design experience is necessary.
During the conference, MUNUC's tech team maintains computer labs for delegates, Press Corps, crisis staff, and Information Services, and also assists with general networking and maintenance. Beforehand, tech members receive thorough, from-the-ground-up instruction on common programming languages and web and server technologies; past curricula have included SQL and Python.
Chairs run our committees. Each committee has a Chair who oversees all matters both substantive and procedural, and who coordinates each committee staff. They are also the primary authors of the Background Guide, the document that delegates use to learn about the issue to be debated. They work with Assistant Chairs, Moderators, and Info Staff to make sure they provide a rewarding committee experience for the delegates. Chairs are organized into USG-Groups, and will work with an Under-Secretary-General throughout the year to craft their vision.
particularly through CHPMUNC, our Model UN preparation program for Chicago Public School students on the South Side.
Crisis Directors are the "behind the scenes" leaders of committees with crisis elements. They work with a committee Chair to lead the delegates through the weekend. A Crisis Director oversees notes, writes the "storyline" or "crisis arc" for a crisis committee, and leads the Crisis Staff assigned to them. Often taking joy in throwing delegates into situations they didn't expect—think assassinations and wars—Crisis Directors are fast thinking and creative.
The Editor-in-Chief is the leader of the conference newspaper, The Phoenix. He or she works with Section Editors (who are MUNUC Staffers) to publish editions of the newspaper, which is written by delegates. The Editor-in-Chief has one of the most tiring jobs at conference, being up early and staying up late to get out the newspaper.


Anglican churches are "episcopally led, synodically governed." In a parish, this means that the clergy lead the church under the oversight of a bishop, and with the assistance of an elected lay council called Vestry. At Apostles, our Vestry of nine members appoints various committees to assist in this work.
Vestry — The nine members of Vestry serve on rotating, three-year terms. Three new members are elected each year as three members rotate off. The Vestry assists the Dean in the leadership of the parish. They have authority over the parish finances, maintain the parish property, and share in leading outreach and parish life.
Our Vestry appoints committees to carry out the ministries of the parish. The Vestry and these committees gather every second Tuesday of the month for planning and governance. We pray (6p), eat (6.30p) and meet together (7p).
If you are interested in serving on one of these committees, please contact the committee chair.


For those of us who have loved and lost a special friend, these words are hard to read.
They take us back to that time of loss, and makes our grief fresh.
For some of us, it starts our anticipatory grief, knowing our time with our current friend is so limited.
Ultimately, these words give us comfort in knowing we are not alone in our grief.
I haven't gone away...I've only gotten bigger.


The Bunfectionary has many beginnings, but most certainly it was born the day after I was laid off. The HR rep called late that morning to check on me. Even for a spring day in Seattle, it was amazingly beautiful, with sunlight streaming through the branches, blossoms and my window. As HR guy asked how I was, Tilbert began doing binkies around my legs. I started to laugh, and the more I laughed, the more animated Tilbert's binkies grew. I realized then that everything was going to be alright. HR guy nervously again asked if I was OK. Between laughs, I told HR guy I was fine, but I bet he thought I was losing it. But we bunny lovers all know better.
As I spent more time with Tilbert, and my design clients all wanted to give him treats, I began to realize how unhealthy commercial rabbit treats actually are. Full of sugar, grains, fat, and even dairy and egg products, they were in fact, the opposite of what a bunny should be fed. And so I turned my interest in cooking towards making a better bunny treat, one free of grains, fat, and excessive carbohydrates, but full of hay and fiber. I wanted a tasty treat that built relationships between humans and bunnies, yet at the same time maintained the delicate and healthy diet of herbivores.
Maddie had to have leg removed after she found was found in a park with the limb hanging on by a tendon. We suspect that she was another Easter throwaway.

Why Raveena Tandon And Karisma Kapoor Hated Each Other so Much?
Posted on November 1, 2018 by Dolly Bhardwaj
You must have seen both of them, Raveena Tandon and Karisma Kapoor as very good friends in the movie 'Andaaz Apna Apna' but in real life, both of them were jealous of each other in the past and even now there never get spotted together. In an interview, choreographer turned director Farah Khan revealed that both of them made fun of each other during the practice of a song in the film Andaz Apna Apna.
Apart from competition, there was another reason also for the hate the two actresses shared. It was none another than the actor Ajay Devgn who buried the seeds of rivalry among the two. It was back in the 90s when he debuted to Bollywood, there was a rumour that he was in a relationship with Raveena Tandon but he dumped her after falling in love with Karisma Kapoor. This break up shattered Raveena Tandon and the rumours were Raveena even attempted a suicide.
After that, Raveena and Ajay were involved in an ugly fight which became public, the actor even said she needs a psychiatrist. Ajay Devgn in an interview said that:
"Letters? Ha! What letters? Tell that girl that she should go ahead and publish those letters, even I want to read the figment of her imagination! …She is just trying to get publicity by linking her name with mine. Her so-called suicide attempt was also a publicity gimmick."

Secut Press (2012-06-02 )
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. SWOP is a fusion of swing and hip hop dances, created by person(s) unknown but possible renamed from "Hip-Hop Lindy" to "Swop" by Hinton Battle in 2006. It contains steps from hip hop, break dancing, Lindy Hop and swing air steps (aerials). The exact year of origin of the dance style is unknown, however, record indicate that the style was being taught, danced and discussed as early as 2001. The first mainstream appearance of this new style was in the movie Idlewild in 2006. A performance in the popular TV show "Dancing with the Stars" followed.The relationship between graffiti and hip hop culture arises from the appearance of new and increasingly elaborate and pervasive forms of the practice in areas where other elements of hip hop were evolving as art forms, with a heavy overlap between those who wrote graffiti and those who practiced other elements of the culture.

Vol. 52, Issue No. 2, 14 Jan, 2017
Updated on 13 January 2017
Manash 'Firaq' Bhattacharjee
Is Dylan Literature?
The unilluminating debate around Dylan's songs and the Nobel for literature is put to rest.
Bob Dylan's banquet speech was read out by the United States ambassador to Sweden Azita Raji, at the Nobel banquet on 10 December 2016. In his characteristic manner, Dylan has addressed the questions that have been raised by others about his winning the most coveted prize in literature. With gentle honesty, Dylan articulated his own views on being awarded the Nobel, raising new questions for all those critics, readers and listeners who have freely judged him since October 2016. Spencer Kornhaber in the Atlantic has quite aptly called Dylan's speech "subversively humble."
Since the time he was declared a Nobel laureate, Dylan's work has been hotly debated by the literary class, by fans, by critics, and by self-proclaimed experts on what constitutes good or bad singing, good or mediocre lyrics, and how we should make a difference between songwriting and literature. This debate kept on, despite, and sometimes disregarding, the Nobel Prize citation that equated Dylan's work in the Bardic tradition. Very few voices from the literary world, Salman Rushdie, Margaret Atwood, Joyce Carol Oates and Teju Cole apart, welcomed the announcement. Many names and many reasons were made against the rationale behind and judgment awarding Dylan the highest prize for literature. Even among songwriters, some argued that the late Leonard Cohen to Silvio Rodriguez were more worthy of the distinction. All this revealed a profound degree of shallowness regarding the experience of hearing Dylan. Dylan was the most famous white singer of his generation who took centre stage, singing about history's most marginalised people. His songs captured the coldness of the American landscape and heart. If his love songs were despairing, his songs on racism were poignant and sharp. When a part of America was dreaming about and preparing for the future, Dylan was on Brechtian mode, singing of his dark times. Dylan saw the lack of justice around him and sang his quarrels and his despair. His voice was as jagged as his poetry, and sometimes you could hear him drag the words the way certain rough experiences of life and of the world enter our very mode of expression. You find this shake-and-drag movement in "It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)" where the singing is close to reading a text while walking through a hallucinatory road of dark clarities. In Dylan, it is impossible to dissociate the quirky inflections of the singer from the song. But these weren't the talking points in thedebates around him.

Attorney Gregg Jarrett Calls On Mueller and Rosenstein to Resign After Rosenstein Memo Surfaces!
The funny thing is that Mueller pulled out this memo to shut down Manafort's claims that Mueller has stepped outside the jurisdiction of his duties. In doing so, he outed himself as colluding with Rosenstein.
Via Gateway Pundit: "An August 2017 memo from Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein to Special Counsel Robert Mueller surfaced late Monday evening in a court filing. Mueller used the memo to defend his scope of the investigation against a recent motion Manafort filed to dismiss his case.
Rosenstein intentionally violated DOJ rules. Rosenstein knew exactly what he was doing since he helped convinced Sessions to recuse himself so Rosenstein could be in charge of everything! I THINK this is to help cover up of uranium 1 in which Rosenstein/Mueller has deep ties!

Women get 40 per cent less than men in retirement

The pay gap widens drastically in retirement(Photo: Christopher Furlong/Getty Images)

June 6, 2017 6:20 pm(Updated July 3, 2020 12:17 pm)
Women can expect to receive 40 per cent less than men in retirement, with a pensions pay gulf twice as large as the wage gap leaving many facing poverty in their older years.
The older life expectancy for women, more part-time work and career breaks to care for family mean that the gender pay gap for the workforce of around 18 per cent widens to 39.5 per cent when it comes to average retirement income in the UK.
Nations such as Denmark, Lithuania and the Czech Republic are closer to pension equality, a study by pensions consultancy Mercer found.
Despite the stark shortfall for women workers, the research found that fewer than three in 10 organisations offer savings schemes that are tailored to different working patterns, such as part-time or job-share. Just one in 10 cater specifically to women's retirements needs.
"Not only an urgent challenge for governments and policy makers, the pensions gap should also be front of employers' minds," said Mandy Schreuder, diversity and inclusion consultant at Mercer.
"Women live longer, but with lower levels of savings they face a higher risk of retiring into poverty than their male counterparts." The research also found that women were far less likely than men to put their private pension savings into aggressive investments, preferring to play it safe and generate lower returns.
State pension pain
Lower income from private pensions means that changes to the state retirement rules risk having a disproportionate effect on women.
The Women Against State Pension Inequality (Waspi) campaign has lobbied against reforms that added 18 months to the retirement age of 2.6 million women.
The Labour manifesto has pledged to ease the effects of pension reform on women born in the 1950s, who have borne the brunt of previous changes, while leaving the retirement age at 66.
The Conservatives have focused more on closing the gender pay gap in the workplace. However, the funding crunch for Britain's ageing population has prompted some experts to call for faster increases to the retirement age.
John Cridland, the former director-general of the CBI, recently published an independent paper recommending that the retirement age should rise from 67 to 68 by 2039, seven years earlier than the current plans.

Kellogg School of Management's Global Hub, 2211 Campus Drive. The event will be held in the Global Hub on Feb. 20.
Kellogg School of Management will host a panel with former officials from former President Barack Obama's administration to discuss the forces shaping the nation's executive branch, according to a Monday news release.
The panel will include Obama's deputy assistant Roy. L. Austin, former Vice President Joe Biden's director for domestic and economic policy Don Graves and Biden's director for legislative affairs Tonya Williams. Alumna Dorothy Tucker (Communication '77) will moderate the panel.
Kellogg Prof. Ben Harris, who served as the chief economist and the economic advisor to Biden, helped coordinate the event.
"The panelists' collective expertise will foster an insightful conversation on a host of topics relating to social and economic policy, with a particular emphasis on issues facing the black community," Harris said in the release.
The panel is part of NU's Black History Month observance and is co-sponsored by the Black Management Association, the Public Policy Club and the Kellogg Public-Private Initiative, according to the release.
"By bringing top policy officials to Kellogg, we are helping to introduce tomorrow's business leaders to the inter-workings of government which will prove critical to their future performance in business," Harris said in the release.
The event — which is open to students, faculty and staff — will take place Feb. 20 in White Auditorium in the Kellogg Global Hub.

Forced return to work, discrimination in layoffs can put firms in deep trouble
Rushing employees back to work against their comfort level not only creates a psychologically unsafe environment for the employees, it may lead to lawsuits, public backlash and increased regulatory scrutiny, according to a Forrester report.
Updated: June 12, 2020, 17:23 IST
Employees who speak out about going back to work could be seen as troublemakers, be alienated by their colleagues and bosses, and be managed out, causing a series of unfair dismissal cases.
New Delhi: As organisations prepare to reopen offices after Covid-19 lockdowns, in addition to health and safety risks, business leaders must consider risks associated with forcefully asking employees to return to work or laying off staff based on age, gender or race which can result in legal repercussions, brand vilification and financial decline, a new report has warned.
Rushing employees back to work against their comfort level not only creates a psychologically unsafe environment for these employees, it may lead to lawsuits, public backlash and increased regulatory scrutiny, according to a new Forrester report detailing most critical risks for businesses to avoid post Covid-19 lockdowns.
"All of this will, in turn, lead to a toxic culture and employee, customer, and public backlash. Worse, the issue of liability for employees that get sick has yet to be determined," said Heidi Shey, Principal Analyst.
In Australia, claims for unfair dismissal have increased by 70 per cent during the pandemic, and the estimated cost of for companies to defend an unfair dismissal claim can range from $15,000 to $100,000 per claim.
In Massachusetts, Walmart had to close three stores after 27 employees tested positive for the virus and one died.
As of May 4, more than 800 COVID-19-related lawsuits had been filed in the US. In some cases, employees are claiming that work was the main contributing factor of them getting infected.
Amazon has been accused of retaliating against employees who wanted to sound the alarm on unsafe working conditions, prompting one executive to resign, bringing negative headlines that have overshadowed some of the critical practices the Amazon has since taken to protect workers.
"Don't force people to come back before they're ready; if your employees are successfully and happily working from home, be flexible and give them the option to stay there. Making them come back before the crisis slows down opens the door to the risk of being held liable for illness," suggested Shey.
There may be instances where employees need to be in an office environment, such as cases of family violence or poor network connectivity, where you must make accommodations.
The senior management should communicate with empathy, transparency, and clarity.
"Plan to leave a percentage of your workforce at home, and make sure you consult with your employees and gain their buy-in. Train your frontline managers to identify and avoid bullying and harassment," said the report.
For decisions dealing with recruiting, granting essential employees permission to use office premises, or enacting lay-offs, the firms must avoid assumptions based on implicit bias.
"Blanket policies that target sections of your workforce, such as older age, racial, or linguistic groups will backfire. Such bias-prone decisions will also lead to the loss of trust among your workforce and the loss of experienced employees," the Forrester report emphasised.
A discriminatory workplace can be a top deterrent against attracting new talent when conditions improve.
Other critical risks to mitigate for the return to work are failure to comply with health and safety standards and regulations; failure to ensure the safety of employees during their entire journey; partner violations of safe workplace environment; violation of employees' privacy rights and violation of employees' privacy rights with contact-tracing solutions, among others.
A growing number of employers believe that tracking employees' movement within work premises - knowing who they met and which rooms they visited while at work - can provide valuable insights for reducing the spread of COVID-19, and contact tracing technology is taking center stage for this effort.
"Regardless of the approach, mobile app, wearable device, badge card, or manual approaches contact tracing comes with great privacy challenges," the report mentioned.

We all aware that, many inventions have made on technology. In this list, we can place the most important technique called print marketing. There is no matter of how much the online marketing techniques have been emerging and become the popular needs, still we encounter that offline printing is an essential marketing aspect in the present time business days. This is mainly because print marketing has made the groundwork for every marketing operation.
By assisting some online tutorials and the sayings, we can encounter some amazing tricks and techniques about print marketing. Though, arriving and implementing such facts are crucial from simple ploys, they were the most important aspect for the business. Here are some tips which act as the significant tool for an effective marketing procedure with the help of printing.
When it comes to online marketing, words plays significant role. This implies the person should opt for the right can clear word as the keyword. Even though they take part in small area, effect of the word affects greater part in the online marketing strategies. More than this, there is another important portion called usage of words. One should use the short and precise sentence in the place of showing their information. This helps in enhancing the thought as well as this helps to reach more people. According to human psychology, no one can pay attention to specific thing more than 5 minutes. Hence, it is always important to make it simple and precise.
This is the most effective technique, especially for the people whose budget is too limited. Many thought that, it is impossible to reach the audience with low budget. But usage of flyers in this case would enable to reach high traffic within short span of time. Here there is a necessary to assume the number of audience to be reached within the framed time.

A short review of our thermodynamic and structural work on Ar, N2, CO, O2, and the n-alkane C19H40 in mesoporous glasses is presented. The experimental information comes from X-ray diffraction, vapour pressure isotherms, optical transmission, heat capacity, and dielectric measurements. The filling in the pore centre formed by capillary condensation is distinguished from the adsorbed layers on the pore walls and is compared to the bulk state. Special attention is paid to metastable states and to the rearrangement of partial fillings that show up as a consequence of phase transitions.

Pronounce contractions correctly you will.
It's been a while since I posted a puzzler, because, well, classes started last month. Plus, I am now an administrator, so my days are pretty full.
But enough about that. On to this week's puzzler: Why do students mispronounce English contractions?
I'll offer a few examples.
For "don't" /doʊnt/ students will often say "do not." For "she's" /ʃi:z/ they will say "she is." And so on.
Why? Why not pronounce them as they are written?
Linguistically, English is a stress-timed language, while Mandarin is a syllable-timed language. English contractions result from the stress-timing. Native speakers tend to say nouns and verbs relatively clearly, while auxiliary verbs (modals), prepositions and conjunctions tend to be spoken more softly and quickly. For example, unless a native speaker is emphasizing his intention to definitely do something (I WILL), he would pronounce "I will" with a soft /w/ and the /ɪ/ as /ə/: /'ɑɪ ʷəl/. Spoken rapidly, this might sound more like /ɑɪl/. The /h/ in English is fairly soft, so "I have" spoken quickly sounds more like "I've" /ɑɪv/.
Beginning in the 1600s, authors and playwrights reproduced the spoken forms as written contractions. [Citation] Eventually, these contractions became standardized written representations of words as they were spoken, though these spoken contractions were still considered improper and not suitable for educated speakers. Even today, teachers still advise separating the words for formal writing or public speaking occasions, though they are perfectly appropriate for conversational use.
In other words, pronounce the contractions as they are written.
This is how English is supposed to sound. If it was good enough for Shakespeare, it's good enough for you!
"There are" is NEVER spelled "there're," though in rapid, informal speech it may sound like /'ðɝr ər/.
Here is a list of common English contractions. These are all pronounced as they are written. You don't need to say them in their uncontracted forms.
At the time, I made an educated guess and suggested that "amn't" never became a commonly used contraction for "am not" as "aren't" was for "are not", perhaps because the /m/ and /n/ sounds were so close together. I assumed that speakers adopted "aren't I" as a tag question because it's easier to pronounce, though incorrect grammatically. Saying "am I not" or "am not I" also sounds overly formal and stiff, as if the speaker were the King or Queen of England.
It turns out out I was mostly right, judging from this reference.
However, for first person pronoun, I, there is no contraction with the verb be + not. ("Amn't" is not a word in English.) Therefore, in casual speech and writing, English speakers use aren't, instead, and except in formal situations, this is considered entirely grammatical.
The lexicographers at Merriam-Webster suggest "aren't I" developed as a way to avoid the dreaded contraction "ain't," which has been often associated with the lower classes or uneducated people or children. [You'll see it a lot if you read Mark Twain in the original English.] Regardless of the reasons for its use, remember that grammar is largely descriptive and not proscriptive, and in conversational English, making the occasion grammar error is quite normal, even for native speakers, y'know?

Taught exclusively through the InjectAbility®Institute, the PRPcocktail™ treatment addresses a universally bothersome area, the aging neck. The neck can reveal your true age, even if your face has exceeled at hiding it. Prior to the PRPcocktail™ there were limits to the amount of tightening possible for the neck. With this specialized proprietary formula, the options for use are endless! This cutting-edge treatment is intended to thicken 'crepey' skin and can be used on the face, neck, and hands. PRPcocktail™ uses your own Platelet Rick Plasma (PRP), and then combines it with some of our most popular FDA approved products. The injections stimulate your body to produce collagen, which makes the outcomes of the treatment very natural. Once this collagen is produced, the anti-aging effects are expected to last up to two years. Due to the fact the PRP is a by-product of your own blood, this treatment causes very little down time.

Estimating the effects of the onset of the energy crisis on residential energy demand
Lawrence S. Mayer
The onset of the energy crisis as indicated by the start of the Arab oil embargo gave both the private and public sector incentive to reduce the domestic demand for natural gas and oil. Through several mechanisms the residential consumer was encouraged to reduce the demand for energy in the home. We examine a community of almost-identical owner-occupied townhouses to assess the degree to which these mechanisms were effective. The homogeneity of the community removes many sources of variation which would plague an analysis of a random sample of American homes. The demand for natural gas, a fuel which is used only for space heating in our townhouses, was reduced significantly but the demand for electricity was unaffected by the onset of the crisis.

This issue is about what we can do to help the planet.
We look at the ideas and actions that will help the planet socially, economically, and politically. We are not only looking at the bright side of the terrible situation we are in with climate change and the environment. We believe we can still avoid the worst of climate change because we see the tools and movements that can help us find answers.

As I write this there are white surrondings all around me. Winter holiday has treated me with plenty of snow. I am scheduling work for wedding season and that tricks me into thinking summer it is not far. Wishful thinking. As well as practical, because every bridal gown needs plenty of time. Along with forwardplanning my head taps into last year when the time was a little more manageable.
Looking back at the last year the most memorable pieces are the bridal gowns. With so much expectations and dreams invested in every single dress the work on these pieces is always very labourous, but also very rewarding. Some of the biggest wedding dresses were ready made samples from the top designers that needed a better fit or a slight revamp. Per dress was carefully planned over 3-4 months including several fittings. Fittings mostly stand for achieving the right fit, but many bridal dresses now need decorative solutions. Such as lace applique, 3D florals, pearls and beads, all different solutions are discussed and sometimes tested.
These trends I believe were set in motion by royal wedding 5 years ago, 2011. Catherine Middletons Alexander McQueen dress made lace integral part of bridal wear and not only, it also strongly filtered into high street fashion. Lace has dominated the bridal wear for many years now and as every good trend it has evolved. It has gained more emphasis and statement with embellishment and dimentsion. We are now beginning to see a very luxurious statement laces, chiffons or mesh with pearls, beads, diamonds, hand made embroidery, laser cut appliques and 3D florals. This definetly keeps the trend new and exiting. Perhaps soon we are going to look for something a little different and understated, but I'm sure this year still holds quite a considerable amount of work with lace for me.


Hello folks! I think I mentioned online that last week I was off for a few days visiting family, which took me up to Leicestershire and Derbyshire. It was lovely to get out of the big smoke for a little while and enjoy some idyllic countryside, which I thought that I would share with you all.
On another day we headed off to Wistow Rural Centre for a spot of shopping and some lunch (though the cafe there was full to capacity - we ended up hitting the pub instead). I picked up a couple of Christmas presents and also enjoyed having a nose around the Wistow Farm Shop.
After that we headed off for a walk down by the canal and across some fields, a perfect way to spend a sunny autumn afternoon.
My mermaid features in Peculiar Bliss magazine!
I have some lovely news to share with you all! A picture of mine - the lovely (yet slightly creepy) mermaid you see below - is appearing in the latest issue of Peculiar Bliss Magazine. Themed around 'Creatures', it is the seventh issue of the magazine which features lots of stunning and innovative work. Get your copy here!
I'm really excited to be in the issue, many thanks to everyone who has supported me.
Good evening, hope you've all been enjoying the weekend!
I just realised that I almost forgot to share this with you - my otter drawing, finished at last! I was quite pleased with it, and would definitely like to return to otters as a theme again to do a full colour piece. While they are rather charming on land, I think I would like to capture their grace underwater next time!
Step one: you draw a sketch based on a theme. The theme in this case was plants, flowers and flora. I drew this sketch of a lonely autumn scene.
Step two: send your sketch off! The ladies at Ten Paces then mix them up and send them back out. I received this lovely drawing from Brittany Brown.
Step three: make a final piece of work based on the sketch you received. I loved Brittany's drawing so didn't want to change it too much, but just made it my own.
It was great fun taking part! You can see all the pieces of work including my own over here.

Amy Winehouse, Like Princess Diana, Was Bulimic
Delia Lloyd 7 years ago 2 Comments
LONDON – I've always had a soft spot for Amy Winehouse. The British, bee-hived chanteuse was the polar opposite of the proverbial girl-next-door: outré…erratic…Jewish.
In a country where the Duchess of Cambridge – aka Kate Middleton – currently personifies a sort of Ivory Soap poster girl for all that we hold dear, Winehouse embodied this nation's darker side: wayward, unpolished, self-destructive.
And yet, there was a certain tenderness to Amy Winehouse – a vulnerability – skating just beneath the bravado that drew you to her. You could hear it in the lyrics of her signature album "Back to Black," which launched her career in 2006 and subsequently won her a record 5 Grammy awards for a female British pop star:
I cheated myself,
Like I knew I would
I told you I was trouble,
Yeah, you know that I'm no good.
That vulnerability was again confirmed by her older brother Alex, who has spoken publicly about his sister's death for the first time in an interview with The Observer. According to Alex, what really killed Amy wasn't the booze or the drugs for which she was so famous, but a life-long struggle with bulimia. Her battle began in her teens and persisted until her death in her late twenties. In his view, the disease left his sister weak and more susceptible to the physical tolls of her addictions.
This belated revelation of Winehouse's eating disorder is hardly surprising: she was, after all, rail thin (although one might easily have attributed her slight figure to her frequent heroin use.) But her bulimia also puts her in the company of another female British icon – Princess Diana – who wrestled with the disease throughout her marriage to Prince Charles and similarly "flamed out" far too early. While the two women couldn't be more different in terms of looks or social background, they nonetheless shared this dirty secret of adulthood which plagues a growing number of professional women, particularly in mid-life. (When Winehouse died, her Camden townhome – some two miles from where I live – was littered with flowers and tokens of affection for the young pop star – another poignant echo of the street-side shrines left to Diana when she passed away.)
While it's commonplace to blame the rise of eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia on cultural factors such as emaciated models and movie stars, a new body of research suggests that, in fact, most eating disorders are caused primarily by psychological and biological factors. Princess Diana herself once movingly described eating disorders as a "shameful friend," which – by focusing people's energies on controlling their bodies, creates a refuge from having to face the more painful issues at the center of their lives.
It's probably fair to say that even if she hadn't suffered from bulimia, Amy Winehouse was not likely to last long on this earth.
But this new wrinkle in the narrative of her very short life renders her death all the more tragic.
Delia Lloyd is an American journalist living in London. Her work has appeared in the New York Times, The Financial Times, The International Herald Tribune and The Guardian. She was the London correspondent for Politics Daily and blogged about women and politics at The Washington Post's She the People. She blogs about adulthood at RealDelia.

It all started out when Kanye called out Drake about the 'Don't Play With Me' rant earlier this Thursday. When Drake started mentioning and teasing Drake via one of his songs vocal 'Say What's Real.' Do you wanna clear?" "Say What's Real".
Referring to the Pusha T's show in Toronto last month which didn't end well as one man was injured and still in critical condition. The man was stabbed.
my life and I never will be. That's why I made it this far in a pink polo.
Kanye West who is a fellow rapper and Father of 3 children and married to the iconic businesswoman/model and Diva Kim Kardashian, later apologized to the Canadian rapper Drake saying "Sending good energy and love to Drake and family and crew. I haven't seen the show in person but the images look incredible online. I understand where the confusion started.
Kayne and Drake are not here for the first time. In September, West on Instagram slammed drake about "Kardashian-Drake" affair rumors which was denied and neglected by the wife.

Hilco Global is an American financial services holding company. It operates over twenty businesses and specializes in asset valuation, advisory, monetization, and disposition services. Headquartered in Northbrook, Illinois, it has offices throughout the world and provides services to companies, their lenders and professional services advisers across a broad spectrum of business categories including retail, commercial, industrial and financial.  Hilco Global delivers services focused on maximizing the value of under-performing and excess retail, consumer products and industrial inventory, real estate, intellectual property, including consumer brands, patents, and accounts receivable. Hilco Global is also considered one of the largest distressed investment and advisory companies in the world.

History

Hilco Global was founded in 1987 by Jeff Hecktman. Originally operating under the name Hilco Trading, the holding company was renamed in 2013, eliminating the use of the name Hilco Trading Company as well as introducing a new logo and website for the company. Hecktman founded Hilco Trading Company after restructuring his family's industrial supply firm and selling off many of the business' under performing assets.

In 2000, Hilco Global founded a business division named Hilco Merchant Resources LLC, a subsidiary of the company that specializes in retail inventory valuation, retail store closings, retail inventory disposition, fixture, furniture, and equipment disposition, and asset protection. Michael Keefe and Cory Lipoff, formerly of Gordon Brothers, joined HMR the same year with Keefe becoming the CEO. In 2001, the division became known as one of the top five liquidation firms in the United States, having been involved in the $1.8 billion liquidation of Montgomery Ward following that company's bankruptcy. Some of its most notable disposition and liquidation deals included work for Sears, Sears Canada, CompUSA, Sportmart, PharMor Rx, Coldwater Creek, Charming Charlie, and Target Canada. In 2016, the division helped save Aéropostale from final liquidation, eventually allowing the retailer to restructure and reopen over 500 stores. As Toys "R" Us stores closed in 2018, Hilco Merchant Resources oversaw the nearly $2 billion liquidation of their inventory and assets. Hilco Merchant Resources also expanded its operations by opening an office in Australia, taking on retail inventory liquidations of stores that include Fletcher Jones, Dubbo Everyday Living and Dick Smith. In 2019, Hilco Global launched ReStore Capital which resolves shipping and stocking problems between vendors and retailers. ReStore Capital buys shipments from vendors and then consigns the goods to retailers.

Hilco Global founded its real estate business division in 2000 with the formation of Hilco Real Estate, LLC, to be a national provider of accelerated real estate disposition and advisory services. It has acted as agent or principal for numerous real estate acquisitions and sales. It was co-founded by Mitchell Kahn who served as the company's CEO until 2008. Kahn was replaced by Neil Aaronson as CEO and Gregory Apter was promoted to President of the company. Hilco Real Estate was responsible for numerous large transactions in real estate including 1,200 leases for MCI Worldcom that the company either sold or renegotiated. It also closed hundreds of Blockbuster stores following the company's 2010 bankruptcy as well as approximately 200 Borders Book Stores following that company's 2011 bankruptcy. Hilco Real Estate was also involved with the selling of over 165 unused properties owned by Hostess after that company filed for bankruptcy in 2013.

Hilco Global launched Hilco Capital in 2000. Based in the United Kingdom, Hilco Capital is involved in retail restructuring and distressed investments. It has expanded internationally with the opening of offices in Ireland, Spain, Germany, Canada, and Australia.

In 2001 Hilco Global formed a business unit called Hilco Appraisal Services LLC, bundling all of the industrial, retail and real estate appraisal services of the holding company into a single unit. Later renamed Hilco Valuation Services, the company is based in the U.S. and has global offices in the U.K., Canada, Australia, Mexico, South American and Asia. One of this units most notable deals was completed in 2005 with the valuation of 29 locations of over 40 million square feet owned by Delphi Automotive.

2001 was also the year Hilco Global expanded its holdings with the formation of Hilco Receivables LLC, a division that purchases bad debt and services accounts receivable. By 2004, Hilco Receivables had acquired more than $2 billion in receivables and in 2006 it opened a 200-person collection center that operated under the name Apex Financial, LLC. The company also provides receivable appraisals to lenders as well as financing to companies who acquire receivables portfolios. One of the most notable transactions involving Hilco Receivables was the purchase of $25 million in account receivables from National Envelope Corporation after its bankruptcy in 2013.

In 2004, Hilco Global acquired a retail strategic consulting practice from Arthur Andersen called Senn Delaney – SD Consulting. In 2013, the consulting practice was rebranded as Hilco Retail Consulting or HRC Advisory.

Hilco Global began drawing attention from major investors in 2006 when it was announced that Goldman Sachs Group and Cerberus Capital Management were in talks to purchase a significant stake in the company. Hecktman sold part of the company to both investment companies to help finance other ventures, including private equity style buyouts of faded consumer brands. In 2019, Hilco Global sold 27% of itself to La Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec (CDPQ), a company which manages public Canadian pension and insurance funds. In May 2019, Hilco subsidiary H19 Capital acquired the assets of 19th Capital Group, an Indianapolis transportation and truck leasing company.

Hilco Brands was formed from the initial investment as an extension of Hilco Consumer Capital, another company held by Hilco Global. One of the first brands purchased was Halston, a notable fashion line that became popular in the 1970s. Additional brands purchased by Hilco include the Ram and Tommy Armour golf club lines, both companies that were previously based in Chicago, as well as Le Tigre, Haute Hippie, Portico, Under the Canopy, Linens 'n Things, and Polaroid. Hilco then sold the Polaroid brand and its related intellectual property in 2017 to the Smolokowski family, a Polish group of investors. In 2017, Hilco Brands invested in the startup company StreetTrend LLC, a luxury sneaker producer.

Hilco Streambank is an additional subsidiary added to the Hilco Global family in 2011. The company was formed to provide services for intellectual property brands such as Borders, Posh, Tots, Linens N' Things and Circuit City. Hilco Streambank is also known for its IPv4 auction marketplace used for the purchase and sale of IPv4 assets. In 2019, Hilco Streambank helped Johnson Publishing organize an auction for their Ebony and Jet magazine photograph archive after Johnson went bankrupt. Hilco Streambank also managed the intellectual property sale for Charming Charlie in 2019 after they went bankrupt including their trademarks, domain names, customer data, and social media assets. In 2020, Hilco Streambank managed the marketing and selling of all Earth Fare stores, leases, and intellectual property after they filed for bankruptcy.

Hilco Global expanded its real estate business in 2012 with the formation of Hilco Real Estate Finance LLC, a lending division of Hilco Real Estate. Hilco Real Estate Finance operated as a private real estate mortgage lending company and in a year and a half had originated loans in approximately 20 states. Hilco Global sold Hilco Real Estate Finance in 2014 to the private equity firm Garrison Investment Group. The cost of the deal was undisclosed with the overall value of the purchase adding to Garrison's already $3.5 billion in assets. After the sale, the company was rebranded as Jordan Capital Finance.

Hilco Global's Industrial unit, Hilco Industrial LLC, made national news in 2014 with its involvement in the disposition of excess municipal transportation assets for the City of Detroit following the city's bankruptcy, the largest municipal bankruptcy filing in the history of the United States. Prior to its involvement with the City of Detroit, Hilco Industrial played a role in the sale of Chrysler and GM plants in 2010. In Australia, Hilco Industrial liquidated the last remaining automotive manufacturing plant on the continent, Toyota Altona.

In 2012, Hilco Redevelopment Partners bought the Sparrows Point Steel Mill in Maryland to demolish and rebuild as a warehouse distribution hub, renamed Tradepoint Atlantic. The deal has operated in partnership with Baltimore-based investment firm Redwood Capital Partners.

In 2017, Hilco Redevelopment Partners bought the Crawford Generating Station in Little Village, Chicago, to transform the space into an updated distribution center called Exchange 55.

After the Philadelphia Energy Solutions refinery burned down and went bankrupt in 2019, Hilco Redevelopment Partners bought the plant for $225.5 million. Hilco will carry out the dismantling of the plant and an extensive remediation effort before beginning projects on the site.

UC Berkeley police and officers from other campuses swooped down on People's Park early this morning to oust a small encampment that had been set up to stop the cutting of trees at the park. Six people were arrested.
An estimated 100 to 150 police officers arrived at the Southside park around 4:40 a.m. to clear the park so crews could start cutting around 5 a.m., according to Lisa Teague, a park advocate who lives across the street.
Read more about People's Park.
About eight people were sleeping in a small tent encampment that had been set up on the southeast side of the park on Jan. 4, right near where a tree crew had cut down some trees on Dec. 28, according to a UC Berkeley press release. That corner is where Hate Man, a well-known park denizen, once hung out before he died.
At times over the past 11 days, the number of people in the encampment during the day had varied from between 10 and 50, according to UC Berkeley. One man had been sitting in a tree for about four days to protest the university's plan to cut it down, said Teague.
UC Berkeley police had been warning those at the encampment since Jan. 7 that it was illegal to sleep in the park, and that it had been illegal to do so for 20 years. Officials told the park tree advocates that there were beds available in Berkeley shelters. When police encountered campers Tuesday morning, six of the eight people sleeping in tents were arrested, according to the Cal statement.
Tree crews cut down the five remaining trees they had not been able to access on Dec. 28 because activists had sat in front of them. The arborists also removed a number of stumps.
UC Berkeley police cordoned off the perimeter of the park Tuesday and have stationed officers inside the park as well. The California Highway Patrol assisted in this morning's actions too, said UC Berkeley officials.
UC Berkeley officials said they removed 42 trees at the park as part of routine maintenance. The work was done simultaneously with work at about a dozen other sites around campus.
In a sad irony, a 250-foot eucalyptus north of the Greek Theater toppled during a heavy rainstorm on Jan. 6, killing 32-year-old Novato resident Alexander Grant. UC Berkeley is investigating why that tree fell. The eucalyptus was not tagged as part of the university's tree maintenance work.
Also ironic, said Teague, was the fact that a juniper tree in People's Park toppled during that same rainstorm. The juniper was not one of the trees UC Berkeley said was stunted or diseased and had to come down.
Teague lamented the loss of so much green in the park and said the struggle to save the park will continue. Cal has announced it plans to build a housing complex on the site in 2020 to serve both students and formerly homeless people.
UC officials said that the tree work is not connected to the plan to build dorms and supportive housing.
Teague said that, in a funny way, the university's latest action has backfired as it focuses more attention on the park, which will turn 50 in May.


Within the past week, I have scheduled several mediation sessions involving cases in my domestic relations practice. These mediation sessions will address conflicts between parties which include, but are not limited to, child custody and support, distribution of a martial estate and post-decree modification of a parenting time schedule.
If you have an ongoing case in Family Court, or you are preparing to file a new action, chances are that you will find yourself having been ordered to mediation as well. In Jefferson County, and many of the surrounding counties, Family Courts require that litigants involved in dissolution of marriage actions, as well as child custody, support and visitation matters attend mediation prior to scheduling a final trial date. There are exceptions to this required attendance in certain circumstances, such as when the parties have a history of domestic violence and it would not be safe or feasible to force the parties to attend mediation.
There are many advantages to attending mediation in family court matters. First, often times the mediator can spend much more time with the parties, whereas Judges are restricted to time limitations. The parties have more say in the outcome of the dispute. And, very often, mediation assists in resolving the matter well before the matter would otherwise be resolved if the parties were to attend trial.
Of course, not all matters can be resolved in mediation. And there is an hourly expense for attending.
When scheduling mediation for your case, it is extremely important that you are familiar with the choices in mediators who may be appointed to assist your case. There are several excellent Family Court mediators; but certain mediators can assist transitioning families in different ways depending on the particular needs and facts of the case at hand. If you are not familiar with the various mediator options, then it is important to have an attorney on your side who can assist you in the process.

Sometime last year, I came across this fabulous woven basket tutorial HERE, written by Laura Canale. I made a mental note to try it out one day. I needed an idea for the Verve Easter Project Parade and thought it would be perfect.
I used brown and pink cardstock to make a two-toned basket. The top strip is finished off with brads and piercing.
I used Verve's Chocolate Bunnies stamp set for my image and sentiment. I first stamped the bunny, then I colored her and paper-pieced the large middle egg and stamped Happy Easter on it. I stamped the eggs and her bow again, colored them, cut them out and popped them on top for some dimension. Finally, I added some Stickles for a little bling.
Hope you're having a wonderful day! Thanks for stopping by!
Accessories: Petite Oval Nestabilities (Spellbinders), Cuttlebug (Provo Craft), Markers (Copic), Star Dust, Cotton Candy and Antique Linen stickles (Ranger); paper piercer, ribbon, sponge dauber, brads, sticky tape, foam tape.
