When you get to within five-to-ten years of when you expect to retire, the planning usually gets more serious. So far, you’ve probably thought about how much money to save every year, but now you need to think about lots of other issues that will guide you to a better estimate of how much you need to accumulate.
What Are You Retiring To?
What is it that you want to do? Have time to read? Work out regularly? Spend more time with kids, family, friends? Take up a new hobby? Volunteer your time for something you care about? Take a class? Try working at something new? Perhaps with fewer hours or a shorter commute.
Whatever the possibilities, you should probably talk to your spouse (if you’re married) to see how that fits in with their future plans. It’s quite common for the spouse to have some anxiety about a change in the daily home routine. No doubt compromise will need to be part of everyone’s agenda.
Make a list of what excites you about the future and how you’d like to spend your time.
Think about how much those possibilities will cost.
Talk to your spouse, friends, other people you trust to get their thoughts.
Your choice of where to live is a major factor to consider when contemplating retirement. Are you happy staying where you are? Do you want a warmer (or colder) climate? Do you want to be able to travel for extended periods? It’s all about lifestyle.
If you are happy living where you’ve always lived, you probably won’t have many surprises. But if you’re thinking about a second home in another part of the country or perhaps moving permanently somewhere else, you need to do some homework. Try spending a longer vacation where you think you want to go. How will you make new friends, find medical care or get involved with your community?
If you plan to stay where you live now, quantify the costs for living there. Is your mortgage paid off? Do you have association fees? Can you afford to pay property taxes once retired? Should you consider downsizing within the same area?
If you are considering a new location in retirement, make the time to visit for several weeks or months. The experience will help you consider issues you may not have thought about before. What are the costs like? Higher? Lower? How easily can you integrate yourself in this new community?
If you are thinking about relocating, how will the current housing market affect your decision? Do you need to allow more time to sell your home before you start looking for a new place?
If you’d like to travel for an extended period of time on a regular basis, try to quantify those costs. Will you have “double” expenses for that time? For example, will you be paying rent in the new location and mortgage payments on your current home? Two sets of utility bills? Will you need to ship a car back and forth? These costs can add up fast, so it pays to think about it ahead of time.
Will your health care cover you anywhere you choose to live? What types of changes would need to be made to other types of insurance coverage based on a change of residency?
If you already have more than one home, do you anticipate selling any properties once retired? How does the rest of the family feel about that?
Speaking of family feelings, you’ll need to give some thought to how the kids will react to major changes in the household. Many retirees’ children are grown and launched in their own lives. But you’d be surprised how many of those kids still think of the house they grew up in as “home.” Retirement can be a time to follow your dreams and try new things, but be prepared for a variety of reactions from those closest to you.
Not everyone’s kids are completely launched at retirement. That may be a reason to stay in your current home for a while. As the kids get older, they may be able to continue with their lives while you travel for longer periods. Or perhaps you can time your adventures so that they can join you, although they may be reluctant to leave their own lives – even for a relatively short period of time.
What considerations are there for retirement that would affect your children?
How will you incorporate the needs of your kids once you’ve retired?
It’s not just the kids that may need your financial support. A new pattern is emerging as Baby Boomers are more frequently approached by family and friends to help when times get tough. While writing a check to someone in need may not seem to be a significant enough issue to sidetrack your own retirement plans, a pattern of these types of requests can definitely add costs that you hadn’t planned on and haven’t built into your retirement projections.
Family members having a tough time financially increasingly approach baby boomers who were and remain responsible about saving and investing. For example, your child needs a loan or your sibling needs help paying bills. Your mother with dementia must go into assisted living but lacks long-term care insurance. These costs are not necessarily built into your retirement plans.
People live longer now; you need to plan as if you will live into your 90s, some 40 more years. Your parents may also live longer and need financial assistance in those years.
Your kids may boomerang after college or in early adulthood, moving home to live with you again for years.
Clients struggle with children who have addiction issues and pay for the kids’ long-term rehab – care that sometimes comprises relapses and requires even more treatment. Parents face how long to keep paying for care, a cost rarely foreseen and included in any financial plan.
Wealthier clients who planned for organized philanthropy in retirement instead give money to needy people in daily life. These gifts are nondeductible and don’t fit into planned charitable giving.
Not surprisingly, the study notes that one in seven people over 50 are divorced, a sevenfold increase from 1960. Divorce usually stretches both parties financially and creates more complicated domestic situations – often creating need for frequent financial help, as well.
These issues only get more complex as retirement approaches, and with it your fears of outliving your money and becoming a burden on your family. The study pinpoints needing a family member to provide physical care as potentially the most worrisome outcome (men feel more strongly about this than women).
Few families discuss long-term care needs or even how to approach planning for elder care. Only a little more than a third (37%) of those 50 and older believe they will need long-term care, for instance, when in reality 70% will eventually need it, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Out-of-pocket elder care for either you or your relative drains savings fast. Costs range from an average of $20 an hour for in-home care to some $7,300 a month for private care in a nursing home.
Alzheimer’s disease is another top fear. The study reports that nearly half of people 85 and older have Alzheimer’s or related dementias. No doubt most of those retirees prefer to remain in their own homes.
You need to know about the costs of retrofitting you home to accommodate an elderly relative, and what long-term care insurance does and doesn’t cover when under your roof. Your use of long-term care insurance to cover home health care often reduces the policy’s lifetime benefits, for instance. How much coverage remains for institutional care if you eventually need it?
When handling these very personal and complex issues, consider consulting with an elder care attorney or geriatric specialist. At the very least, think about whether you are becoming the family bank and if you should build the costs into your retirement plan.
A study in the May 2011 issue of Journal for Financial Planning by Wade Pfau, Ph.D. posits that it’s the savings rate that we should be focusing on rather than the withdrawal rate. His research shows that it may be more effective to think about what you want to spend in retirement and then save accordingly. The longer you have to save, the less you need to sock away each year. But on average, the savings rate needed in this study was approximately 16% to 17%. That’s higher than the traditional 10% of net income. But for many people, it’s probably realistic. Of course many factors affect that rate including time to save, asset mix, inflation, taxes and so forth.
Once you get within five years of retirement, it makes sense to do a detailed projection of income sources and expenses in retirement to see if you are on track. This is probably one of the most important times to seek professional advice to make sure you’ve really considered all relevant factors.
Are you saving enough for retirement? It may be more now that the economy is growing so slowly.
Have you thought about how much you’ll spend in retirement? Have you considered inflation over time on those costs?
Do you know the percent of assets you’ll spend each year in retirement – your withdrawal rate? Is it sustainable over your lifetime? One of many people’s biggest fears is running out of money during retirement.
Consider your life expectancy. People are living longer now and many of you may need to plan to live into your 90s.
Historically, there have been three primary sources of income in retirement: Social Security, your company retirement plans and personal savings. Not everyone will have all three.
Social Security will most likely change for many people who are not already retired. It is already “means tested” in that people in higher income brackets pay more tax on their benefits than those in lower brackets. You can apply as early as age 62, although at that age you will lose 20% of your full benefits. If you are married, there can be significant advantages to doing some analysis of “claiming strategies” (when to take your benefits). This stream of income can play an important role in retirement and it pays to learn more about your options. In some cases, it may make sense for one spouse to defer their own benefits until age 70 while taking spousal benefits at an earlier age.
Company retirement plans are a major source of income for many retirees. Some companies still offer pension plans. In these types of plans, the employer puts away money based on an actuarial formula for its employees. At retirement, you can choose a pension benefit for just your life or for a combined life expectancy with your spouse. More often, companies offer 401(k) or 403(b) plans where the employees have to save and choose their own investments. At retirement, you can rollover those assets to an IRA or leave them in the company plan.
If you like the idea of a pension – receiving a regular income – then you may want to consider an immediate annuity for a portion of your retirement income. Choose an insurance company with reasonable expenses and a strong financial track record.
Recent retirement studies show that it may be advantageous to use an immediate annuity to cover your fixed costs. The annuity is guaranteed to pay out for your life expectancy (or a joint life expectancy if that’s what you choose). So assuming the company that sells you the annuity is solvent, you won’t run out of money – at least for a basic level of expenses. You can then draw are right now, you may want to wait a bit before committing to an annuity. Once you purchase an immediate fixed annuity, you typically lock in an interest rate for life.
Think about when you want to start taking Social Security benefits assuming you think you’ll be eligible.
Understand what company benefits you are entitled to: retirement plans including pension plans, 401(k) or similar plans, non-qualified plans (typically for higher level executives), stock options, restricted stock, company health insurance and other benefits.
If you want to lock in a stream of income in retirement, consider an immediate fixed annuity from a company with reasonable costs and a strong financial base.
One frequently overlooked source of income in retirement is the Health Savings Account (HSA). An HSA is a tax-exempt trust that is set up with a qualified HSA trustee. You can contribute to an HSA if you have a high-deductible health insurance policy. (If you are enrolled in Medicare, you cannot make contributions.) The money in the HSA grows tax-free until you need it in retirement. As long as the money is used for qualified health expenses, you won’t have to pay income tax on the withdrawals.
When you make a contribution to an HSA, you get a deduction on your tax return. If you contribute through an employer plan, you put away dollars that will never be taxed. Self-employed individuals can also contribute after-tax dollars to HSA plans. You do not need to have earned income to contribute.
Watch out for the expenses of the plan. If you want to invest in a particular fund, try looking for HSA trustees on that fund company’s website. For example, Vanguard has links to HSA providers that offer Vanguard funds.
There are annual limitations on how much can be contributed. For 2017, a single person can contribute $3,400. If you are over age 50, you can make an additional catch-up contribution of $1,000. If you have family high-deductible coverage, you can contribute up to $6,750. Contributions can be made up until the tax filing deadline. You report contributions to the IRS on Form 8889 that is filed with your return.
If you die with an HSA, your spouse can use it for their qualified medical expenses. If your beneficiary is someone other than your spouse, the money becomes taxable to your heirs.
Many people find themselves at a loss when it comes time to invest retirement assets. As you get older, typically you invest more in bonds. Lots of people have no clue what to look for when purchasing bonds. Focus on a combination of credit quality and length to maturity. These are the primary drivers in evaluating the quality of bonds.
Most retirees find comfort in maintaining enough money in cash equivalents and bonds to cover at least three years’ of expenses. Inflation can put a damper on retirement income. Think about ways to protect your assets from the ravages of inflation. TIPS – Treasury Inflation Protected Securities – are one way to do this. Diversifying in stocks, real estate and precious metals could also help protect against rising prices. If you buy an annuity, get the inflation protection rider.
One of the most vulnerable times in your investing life is just before or just after you retire. If the market goes down, it can be hard to recover as millions of people are discovering right now. If you are working, you can always keep working longer to try to recover. But if you are already retired, it’s much tougher to course correct. Common sense about spending can help. If times are difficult, pull back on expenses to the extent you can. If you are experiencing anxiety, it may be time to hire a professional.
A recent study by Wade Pfau and Michael Kitces, Reducing Retirement Risk with a Rising Equity Glidepath, challenges the traditional thinking about holding more bonds in retirement. The study considers another strategy of holding more bonds as you approach retirement and are in the early phases of retirement. Then in later years, you start adding to the stocks in your portfolio. This is one way of addressing the vulnerability of your portfolio right at the point of retirement. By later in your retirement, your portfolio may be able to take on more risk. This strategy may be supplemented by purchasing a fixed immediate annuity, also later in your retirement years, to lock in income to cover mandatory expenses.
How will your investment strategy change at retirement? Will it continue to change as you age?
How much money do you want to hold in very liquid investments for emergency reserves?
Are you confident in your own abilities to manage your money in retirement or should you seek a professional? Many times investors start off managing their own affairs but find that as they age they value having a trusted professional there as a sounding board or to help their families when they are gone.
Have you considered how to protect your portfolio against inflation or other threats to your assets?
Insurance needs can change at retirement. Most people want life insurance when their children are young and their mortgages are high. With the ability to pass $10.98 million to children estate tax free from a married couple, there may be less need for life insurance to protect against estate tax.
You won’t need long-term disability insurance in retirement. That’s to protect your income while you’re working. You will still need homeowners’, auto and umbrella coverage.
Fidelity estimates that a couple at age 65 will need $220,000 for medical costs alone throughout retirement. This assumes both people sign up for Medicare and don’t have additional company retirement benefits. This does not include any need for long-term care expenses, over-the-counter medications or dental costs. If you retired before age 65 or needed long-term care, expenses could be much higher.
Long-term care insurance covers home health care and nursing home costs. Typically people evaluate their need for this coverage between age 50 and 60. Costs are more reasonable during that period and go up with age. Costs can also go up for entire classes of insureds over time. The shorter the period of benefits, the lower the increases. Depending on your level of assets, you may not need long-term care insurance. AARP has a program for this type of coverage that is reasonably priced.
Evaluate your need for life insurance at retirement.
Review your personal property coverage: home, auto, umbrella.
Understand what your company will provide for retiree health insurance, if anything.
Although you typically will have COBRA health insurance coverage when you leave your company, make sure you understand how long it will last.
Apply for Medicare about three months before you turn age 65.
Educate yourself about long-term care insurance to see if you should apply for a policy.
While you were working, your employer withheld taxes for you. At retirement, you’re responsible. Many people pay estimated quarterly tax payments for income tax – both state and federal. You may find that you owe much less tax right after you retire – and before you have to start taking required minimum distributions from retirement accounts. That could be because you are drawing on assets that have already been taxed.
You can take withdrawals from a company retirement plan once you are age 55 and separated from service without penalty. So if you need to draw on this money, don’t roll it over to an IRA where you have to be age 59½ to withdraw money without penalty. The penalty for early withdrawal is 10% on top of your regular tax owed.
If you have company stock in a retirement plan, you may be able to use a little known tax rule referred to as “net unrealized appreciation (NUA).” To use this special rule, you do not roll over the company stock to an IRA. You take it out of the plan and pay ordinary income tax on the cost basis. Many times this cost basis is low because the shares were purchased by the company long ago (your company can provide you with the cost basis).
When you eventually sell the stock, you’ll pay capital gains tax on the net unrealized appreciation (fair market value on the date of withdrawal from the plan minus the cost basis) instead of ordinary income tax on an IRA withdrawal. If you hold the stock at least one year, any additional appreciation is also taxed at capital gains rates.
If you use NUA, your heirs will not be able to step up the cost basis at your death. There are pros and cons to using this technique and I strongly advise you to consult a professional before doing this.
Watch out for tax penalties in retirement. At age 70½, you have to take required minimum distributions (RMDs) from retirement accounts. If you miscalculate on the amount to withdraw, you may have to pay a 50% penalty on what you should have withdrawn but didn’t. The rules can be complicated especially when you first start, so you may want to seek professional help at that time.
Think about if and when you’ll need to file quarterly estimated income tax payments.
Consider the tax impact of withdrawals from your assets. You may want to start taking withdrawals from assets that have already been taxed first and wait to start withdrawing from tax-deferred assets.
Make sure you understand when you are required to start taking withdrawals from retirement accounts.
You can always take more than the minimum distribution.
You need to have a will. And perhaps a trust, too, depending on your circumstances. These documents detail what you want to happen with your assets, guardianship for your children and who will make important decisions when you’re gone. Procrastination is common. Most of the time, people just can’t figure out who they want to name as executors, trustees or guardians. Try to identify your best choice now and understand you can always change it later if necessary.
If you are worried that your heirs won’t manage money wisely, you can add language to create a “spendthrift” trust. The trust controls how the money can be spent. If you want to leave money to someone, but not their relatives, you can have the trustee purchase an annuity that ends after one life. There are lots of solutions to estate problems you may be worried about.
In some cases, a significant level of wealth needs to be protected for heirs. Creating a family trust can be one way to pass assets to the next generation. Creating charitable trusts that all family members can participate in can create values that you want to pass along. Don’t forget to plan for pets’ care once you are gone.
Powers of attorney for health care and property are also important to make sure your wishes are honored if you are not competent to manage your own affairs. And don’t forget to write down where to find important information so your family or friends know where to find everything.
If you don’t have estate documents, get them drafted by an estate attorney.
If you do have estate documents, review them every five-to-ten years.
Make sure you have powers of attorney for property and health care.
Write down where your important papers are and who to contact in case of an emergency.

Every kid goes through a phase where they look to the stars. That’s cute and all, but there’s nothing out there but burning balls of gas, unlimited amounts of nothingness, and lots of rocks. Maybe a few hundred light years away there’s a beach worth seeing, if you can breathe nitrogen, but for the most part space is a pretty empty place. If you really want to see the final frontier for humanity, the answer is downward, not up. At the source of all life, under the water.
Since we crawled out of it, the ocean has been a source of fascination for human beings. We can’t breathe in it, though there’s plenty of oxygen to be had, and the majority of our dying little world is comprised of it, though we still suffer from water shortages because so much of it is filled with salt. It’s a perpetual conundrum that draws us in as much as it terrifies us. So much so that we’ll seek out the 9 best underwater hotels just to sleep closer to this enchanting vixen.
A boutique hotel that has managed to survive in a bloodthirsty industry at its worst, Huvafen Fushi is a survivor, but also the result of tremendous location. Sitting atop a lagoon with profound clarity that goes beyond the murkiness of crystal, you can opt to spend time on sands of snowy white, go to the infinity pool, or go down below to the spa. Treatment of your body is handled underwater where colorful fish swimming by will relax your mind even as the therapists rub away your worries and woes. If you prefer to avoid submergence, there’s overwater pavilions with all the relaxing accents, but located where drowning isn’t a possibility.
In the land of impressive resorts, it’s impossible to stand out. Unless you’ve managed to crack the code the way Atlantis The Palm has. Split between full resort enjoyment for the true tourist, and a 1,500 room hotel, what makes it most notable are its watery suites sitting beneath the waves where you can stare out into the Ambassador lagoon. With each of these rooms comes a butler, a dolphin encounter, and you can even opt to view “ancient ruins” of the famed Atlantean city.
There’s no shortage of garden rooms and relaxing getaways attached to the Manta Resort. Should you decide to splurge, you can spend $1,500 a night on the private floating cottage complete with its own underwater sleeping room. While other hotels build walls and windows into their structures, should you sleep in the Manta Resorts underwater room, you’ll have 360-degrees of wetness to deal with, as the whole space sits in a clear box. Expensive, but turn it into a private party barge and you’ll never regret the money you wasted.
You might not easily locate Resort World, as it’s a tiny attachment stuck to the side of the world’s largest aquarium. Prime location, you’ll be treated to private butler service as you spend your time gazing at the many attractions available at the aquarium, to say nothing of the ordinary views of the private, aquatic sanctuary. The suites are devised as two-story townhouses that let you view the 40,000 varieties of fish, but also has an upper level devoted to land-lubber living, complete with Jacuzzis and other standard five-star pampering.
The standard underwater hotel goes above and beyond to make the entire experience as pleasurable as possible, lavishing visitors with amenities at every turn. The Utter Inn takes a wholly different tactic. For a reasonable fee, you’ll be taken to a tiny house in the middle of the water and left. Go inside, and you’ll be treated to an 80 square foot fishbowl. A pair of beds, some Pike eyeballing you through the window, a desk, and a bathroom are all that await you here. It’s technically an art installation by Mikael Genberg, but is also an oddly fun experience. Particularly if you like solitude and recreational drugs.
Scuba diving into the foyer is part and parcel with this tiny escape located down between Florida and Puerto Rico, as it was once an actual research laboratory. Now cozily converted into a sleeping area, the Lodge holds the distinction of being the oldest underwater hotel ever devised, and though it’s certainly dated, historical couples who enjoy maritime history will find it engaging enough. The underwater pizza delivery is a cute touch, as is the option of an underwater chef to come and prepare your meals.
There’s nothing better than taunting fish by eating seafood while the creatures of the deep pass by. In a disturbing show of hubris, this restaurant offers underwater dining that features windows from floor to ceiling that show all manner of watery denizens. You won’t be allowed to sleep right beside the unsettling depths, though the rooms are gorgeous and come with more than you could ever want in a luxury hotel, from fine dining to the private beach to a place to leave your children. Presumably during your stay, but who’s really going to notice?
The final installment of Maldives hotels that offer an underwater feature, here you’re given a view of the sea floor as part of your dining pleasure. It boasts the first completely underwater wine cellar, allowing you to see how much cleaner a vintage tastes when it’s been kept far from the topside troubles. The menu is as delightful and varied as the aquatic atmosphere, so prepare to be amazed on multiple levels.

Beau Tyler of We the Ghost is pretty effusive in his praise of his hometown of Tulsa, OK. Built on oil money and religious values, this mid-sized Midwestern city now boasts one of the best—and most eclectic—music communities in America. As the band gets ready to release their album The Kids Can't Dance, Beau explains why Tulsa has become more melting pot than dust bowl.
We’ve been in the studio for the last two or three months, but not just for this record. We recorded some songs for film and TV shows, plus some cool covers that we’re going to put out that are totally different from the original. Then we have the album that we just wrapped—it’s being mastered right now—called The Kids Can’t Dance. I think it’s our best album yet.
Tell us a little bit about The Kids Can’t Dance. First off, what does the title mean?
It came from the first music video off the record. We always have a really hard time naming our albums. We’re pretty foolish—we have six people in our band but are committed to having a unanimous decision, if we can.
I believe you need an odd number of people for voting to work.
We really do. But a unanimous decision for us is three people weigh in, and three people are like “Man, I don’t care.” It’s like half of our band is like the [Almost Famous] bass player who says, “I just want to get some barbecue.” The Kids Can’t Dance is a simple performance video with a lot of our favorite people around our hometown: Our favorite musicians and some of our biggest fans. A lot of them can’t dance at all. Some of them dance with glow-in-the-dark hula hoops, and they’re amazing. And we’ve got our friends, The Outsiders, who are an incredible local hip hop group. They can all breakdance like nobody’s business. When we came up with that idea, the album title came easy.
You mentioned the Outsiders from Tulsa. Let’s talk about the Tulsa music scene a little bit, because not a lot of people outside Oklahoma know much about it.
Well, it’s up-and-coming fast. I was just reading a list that called us one of ten best music scenes in American... and they’re right. I would say it most closely resembles a smaller Austin. Tulsa by no means is small; it’s really boomed in the last ten years. The metroplex is a million people. We have some awesome venues. The really cool thing here is there’s a lot of camaraderie. Tulsa is very different from the rest of Oklahoma. It’s kind of like there’s Tulsa, and then there’s everything else.
For a lot of people Tulsa is synonymous with Woody Guthrie and folk music.
We do have a lot of folk music here, but that doesn’t drive our music scene anymore. It’s a lot of rock bands, a lot of hip hop and a lot of upbeat, groovy bands kind of like us. But mostly it’s just a lot of bands that support each other. Half of our friends are rappers and metal bands. They come out to the shows and get down.
What are people’s attitudes towards Woody? Is it reverential? Is it just for tourism?
It’s both. I think within the music community there’s a lot of reverence. And there’s a lot of thanks—not just to Woody, but to the people who preserve his legacy. When you grow up here, you have a predisposition to him and that type of music. Even though folk isn’t always my thing, there’s so much good folk around here—I probably end up watching a folk band at least once a month. I live within about two blocks of the Colony, where there’s a lot of music like that. It’s a place where the Beatles would stop by or Cream would come through, and they’d use the bar as a rehearsal space. And the Woody Guthrie Green is a huge, beautiful outdoor amphitheater. It’s the greatest place you can play in town if you want to play an all-ages, family crowd.
What are some of Tulsa’s other great venues to play at?
Well Cain’s Ballroom, as far as club venues, is the Holy Grail. That’s where bands, who sometimes do arenas, pass up the arena to play Cain’s. If Jack White comes through, he’s not going to play the BOK Center for 20,000 people. He’s going to play Cain’s for 2,500. One of its big claims to musical fame is there’s a spot where Sid Vicious kicked a hole in the wall, and they framed it.
Where’s the first place you’d take an out-of-towner to show them the fun Tulsa?
It depends on what you want to do. If you want to go out to bars and not see bands, Brookside is the area to go. There’s really good sushi and high end food. Really, anytime I’m home and not on the road, I’m downtown. There’s two sides to downtown, and both of them are alive. Whether you want to eat great food, go see a band, go to a comedy club, see sketch comedy or go see a play, it’s all downtown.
Do you have a favorite spot that you’ll frequent at least once a week to eat or drink?
The Hunt Club. It’s not trying to be cool. They’ve got animal heads on the walls, fish on the walls. And they’ve got totally Tulsa, Midwest food. You can get Frito chili pie and mac and cheese mixed in one bowl. They’re the place that gave us our start and actually paid us to play when we started and developed our sound.
Any other favorite places We the Ghost like to frequent?
We love IDL Ballroom. More great owners. The Dust Bowl is really awesome. It’s an old school bowling alley with a massive bar with astroturf grass and seating. Man, it really doesn’t matter. You go downtown, and you can’t miss. The Max Retropub is awesome. It’s a huge bar with 80s arcade games, and it looks like it’s out of Saved By the Bell.
Where do you go out in the city to watch sports?
The Oklahoma Sooners reign supreme in Tulsa. Of course there are also OSU fans, because that’s a huge rivalry. The Oklahoma City Thunder may be bigger now, but in a state like Oklahoma you don’t think of the Sooners as a college team. We think of them as a pro sports team—for some people it’s their entire life. It’s a lot like what the Texas Longhorns are to Texas.
Are you a Sooner fan?
Well, my family is a house divided. Seventy-five percent are OU and 25% are OSU. I don’t worry too much about it. I spend most of my time writing songs.

Denis Abramov / VedomostiRussian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev in Sept. 2014. He is heading the Russian delegation set to attend the upcoming Munich Security Conference.
At last year’s Munich Security Conference, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov took to the stage to defend Russia’s actions in Ukraine. Scheduled between German Chancellor Angela Merkel and the U.S. vice president, Lavrov faced a tough sell.
He did his best to toe the government line, declaring Russia’s annexation of Crimea in March 2014 more legitimate than the reunification of Germany in 1990. It was all too much for the audience of heads of state, foreign and defense ministers, and experts. He was laughed at.
“Lavrov accuses the EU of ‘supporting coup d’etat’ in Kiev. I hope he feels somewhat ashamed of having to market such rubbish,” former Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt, a staunch critic of Russia’s actions in Ukraine, wrote at the time.
Lavrov was, of course, pandering to a domestic audience. His points were not meant to sway international opinion of Moscow’s foreign policy, but to reinforce Russian state media narratives of the crisis in Ukraine, regardless of how it looked abroad.
This year, it appears Russia is changing tack. While Lavrov will attend the Munich conference, Russia’s official delegation will be led by Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev — the message seems to be that Russia is ready to talk about sanctions relief.
Medvedev provides a soft face with which to wrap Russia’s intransigence on issues like Crimea, the conflict in eastern Ukraine, and Moscow’s support for Syrian President Bashar Assad. Whether true or not, Medvedev is viewed in Moscow as the West’s Russian sweetheart.
Official Russian foreign policy positions in Ukraine and Syria have not changed since Lavrov was laughed off stage last year. But Moscow has been forced to show flexibility in finding a solution to its standoff with the West.
The reason for the softening of Russia’s position is simple: the nation is experiencing its worst economic crisis since 1998, and Western sanctions are part of the problem. Consumers and companies are in desperate need of relief from the recession.
Economists from Russian banks said that were sanctions lifted tomorrow, Russia’s economy would receive considerable stimulus, as companies could beging refinancing their debts in foreign currencies — which would provide the ruble with a measurable boost. However, some economists doubted that the relief would be significant enough to entice the Russian government into capitulating to Western demands in Ukraine.
There is, however, something to be said for the government’s fear of economically-motivated public unrest. Negotiating an end to sanctions, even if the relief is more symbolic than substantive, would send a positive message to concerned Russians.
The Kremlin faces a daunting balancing act: It cannot be seen to abandon the separatist forces it supported in eastern Ukraine — especially if Kiev pulls back from implementing the political side of the Minsk agreements. Equally, it cannot afford to continue its fight with the West.
“Russia wants a repeat of the 2008 Georgian War scenario — getting back to business as usual with the West without having to cede any ground,” said Vladimir Frolov, a Russian expert on international relations.
As such, Medvedev will look to explore Russia’s maneuvering room. Meanwhile, the Europeans will themselves look to discuss sanctions, according to U.S. Senator John McCain, who is scheduled to participate in the conference.
Medvedev’s peacemaking effort is part of a broader attempt to reopen diplomatic tracks with the United States. The extent of this apparent detente was underlined last month by a mysterious and surpising meeting in Kaliningrad between Kremlin advisor Vladislav Surkov and Washington’s Victoria Nuland.
Following the meeting, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry mentioned for the first time that sanctions could be lifted. But agreeing on an acceptable schedule of sanctions relief won’t be easy, as the crisis in Ukraine is not over.
The key to sanctions relief is implementing the Minsk-2 ceasefire agreement. But Kiev, under considerable domestic pressure, may decide it’s in their best interests to spoil Minsk. Likewise, separatists in eastern Ukraine may find reasons of their own to reject Minsk, under plausibly deniable instruction from Moscow, or otherwise.
Russia is trying to paint Ukraine as the problem. Moscow has argued that Kiev is dragging its feet on implementing its side of the Minsk bargain, namely enacting constitutional reform allowing for greater autonomy for the rebel regions of Donetsk and Luhansk. But the Russian-backed rebels have also been sluggish in implementing Minsk. OSCE monitors have noted serious ceasefire and weaponry infringements on both sides.
Looking beyond Ukraine, Russia’s efforts to break sanctions will be further complicated by its actions in Syria. Though the West has “compartmentalized” the two, checking Moscow’s attempt to trade its favor with Assad for a compromise in Ukraine, there is an unspoken link between them.
Russia’s actions in Syria have been resoundingly derided in the West, and peace talks collapsed last week as Russian warplanes flew cover for a Syrian army advance on rebel positions in the northern region of Alleppo.
1 Comment on "Russia Sends Medvedev to Munich Seeking Sanctions Relief"
Most Medvedev can hope for is to split the western sanction countries. The current sanction regime runs out this summer and must be extended by the participating countries in EU, and the US. Senator Mc Cains participation in the conference does not speak to an easy task for Medvedev.

Hi, I purchased my Bagheera X Nov 2010 only to have a woman in an Audi TT jump a red light and take the nose off my car July 2011. I now need help locating metal panels making up the front frame in front of the wishbone on the passenger side and across the front ( LHD vehicle ) including a complete head light for the same side. The fiberglass parts are not a priority at the moment. Can anyone point me in the right direction. The metalwork on this car is very good as it came to England from Italy 10 years ago.
I believe some metal parts are available. If you are in the UK try Matra Magic.
How badly are they damaged? Could they be straightened and reused?
Can you take pictures and show us the problems?
Thanks Andy. I have tried Matramagic but not very succesful at the moment. I have also checked on HB autos in France and Simon auto in Germany without any luck. It is difficult to see the extent of the damage in photos and yes I think some parts may be beat back into reasonable shape but it would be far better if I can obtain as many parts as I can. Does anybody know if the headlamp pods are the same on series 1 and series 2 Bagheeras? Also needed is a replacement bumper with the lamp units intact. I live near Wareham in Dorset. I guess its going to take a long time to sort this but the car is to good to scrap.
"...Also needed is a replacement bumper with the lamp units intact. I live near Wareham in Dorset. I guess its going to take a long time to sort this but the car is to good to scrap...."
Nice to hear you want to repair it!
I may be able to help with the bumper. It is in three parts. Do all need replacing? GRP is very easy to repair (I hope!). How bad is the metalwork that supports the lamps in the back of the bumper? Are ALL the lights destroyed? I may be able to help with some of them too. Metalwork is getting hard to find but not too hard to make (or straighten!).
Have you taken the nose cone off yet?
Have you got the Phil Kitch book on how to restore your Bagheera?
Do you belong to the Matra Enthusiasts' Club UK?
The bumper is very badly smashed and the lamp units on the passenger side have been demolished. As far as I can make out it was a 3 part bumper but its far more now! The cone is completely off and the headlamp is totally beyond repair. Phil lives near me and I have paid him a visit but again no help with parts but he does have a couple of nose cones available. I have just applied for membership to the Matra club and I am also a member of the Simca club. I did purchase a Bagheera parts book from MatraMagic for future reference and I am also going to a big autojumle at Loeach in France at the end of September where I will be looking a little harder than in previous years.
Try me with the pictures anyway!
If it helps, I have a complete set of Bagheera X body panels apart from a bonnet. The only problem is that I live in the Western Isles of Scotland!
Thanks very much for your reply. At the moment my priority is for any metal parts making up the framework the nosecone fits onto including items like the radiator surround and fan housing. When I realise I can repair the front framework successfuly I will the look at buying body panels.
I am dismantling a 1979 Bagheera Jubillee edition. You are welcome to come here (Surrey M25 J10) and cut off the whole front.
I hope to take what is left to the scrap yard in mid-September.
Some parts are OK, some are poor, but it is much easier to restore than create from scratch!
I am working on my Bagheera today and over the weekend. Come over and see what I have. Other than Sunday lunchtime I shall be pleased to see you anytime. Call me if you are interested. 01372 844152 is the best line and leave a message if I am not in.

SANAA, Yemen (AP) — Yemeni officials say intense fighting erupted between government-allied forces and Shiite rebels at the Red Sea port city of Hodeida shortly before a U.N.-brokered cease-fire took effect.
The officials say artillery shelling and heavy machine gun fire shook districts in the south and east of the strategic city late Monday as the two sides declared their intention to observe the cease-fire that began at midnight.
Fighting subsided as the cease-fire took effect, with only the sporadic sound of machine guns heard in the city.
The cease-fire was agreed to last week by the two sides during U.N.-sponsored talks in Sweden. Under the agreement, the two sides are to redeploy their forces out of Hodeida and are barred from bringing in reinforcements.

Members of a mystical Eastern cult chase Ringo after he puts on their sacrificial ring and it gets stuck. Failing that, they will sacrifice Ringo himself to fulfill the ring's destiny. A girl in the cult tries to help them. Second Beatles film, comparing poorly to the first; storyline and set pieces apparently inspired by James Bond. Much of the humor falls flat, but the music does not.
This is a forerunner of the great British comedies of Monty Python. Of course, the Beatles were just being the Beatles, but that is what they did best. From England to the Bahamas, this film is a phenomenal romp, brilliantly written and directed. It even has a product endorsement in the form of a billboard for V8 juice. I'm probably in the minority in saying it surpassed "A Hard Day's Night," but that is truly how I feel.

When I was little, my mom and grandma would take me shopping in the spring with the intention of buying an Easter dress. This was the most exciting day for a future shopping enthusiast. We would visit every store in the mall to view the options before making a final decision. I had a few qualifications before I would say yes to the dress. It had to be springy, trendy, and nothing like the one I wore last year. But I definitely did not have the final say.
I can remember asking my mom why we dressed up for Easter, and she always said it was out of reverence for God. That answer never really did the job for me. Every spring, I relive these memories and still wonder why we dress up for Easter. I decided to do some research into Easter fashion.
In some early Christian traditions, believers were baptized in white robes. As baptism is an outward symbol of an inward change, the white robe represented the washing away of sin. This tradition was brought into Easter clothing during the early nineteenth century.
Before the Victorian Era, people didn’t commonly dress up for church services because most people simply couldn’t afford to. However, with industrialization and the emergence of the middle-class, clothes become affordable for almost anyone to buy. People then began to buy new clothes for Easter to symbolize how the old is gone and the new has come.
Now, God doesn’t care about our new outfits on Easter. He is more concerned with our hearts. But, if we position our hearts correctly, we can allow our clothes to represent what Easter is truly about: the resurrection of Christ and the new covenant God made.
Many years later, I still look forward to picking out an outfit to wear on Easter Sunday, but now I have a new outlook on dressing up for Easter. This year, I will take extra care now that I know what I wear can represent God’s change in me.
Bows: This ultra-feminine detail can be found on dresses, tops, shoes, and even some pants. Tying a bow around a sleek ponytail or bun adds an extra element of beauty to any look.
Colorful stripes: Wide, vertical stripes are becoming more and more popular this season. Try a colorful striped midi-skirt with a simple tee and heels.
Sweet lilac: A mix of pink and lavender, sweet lilac is a color to buy this spring. This bright pastel is the perfect pop of color for any outfit.
Floral: Small, delicate floral patterns can be found in almost any store right now. Look for airy blouses and flowy dresses with floral this spring.
Espadrilles: Flat, wedge, platform, heeled, sneaker. Any type of espadrille goes this spring, especially with colored canvas straps. Find an espadrille with a flexible soul to make walking easier.

At Cornell, my main extracurricular involvement has been in environmental and sustainability focused clubs and organizations. I have participated in these issues not only in clubs, but also working as an intern in the Facilities Department, in Cornell's own Sustainability Office, as well as through the EcoReps course.
As a sophomore, I worked with the Facilities Department to create and oversee a program that implemented composting in residential halls on North Campus. The program is still in place today! I also had the opportunity to attend the AASHE (Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education) Conference in Minneapolis and speak on the Think Big, Live Green Panel at last year's President's Sustainable Campus Committee (PSCC) Summit.
I am immensely grateful for the opportunities that I have had through environmental organizations and I feel as though I was able to create dialogue and institute real change on campus. I am also grateful for all of the amazing people that I have been lucky enough to work with over the years.
My interests have changed a lot over my years as a student at Cornell. Coming off a pre-freshman summer internship in engineering coupled with strong interests in social sciences and humanities, information science was my initial choice. But during freshman year, I decided to take most of my humanities distribution requirements, and the classes that I chose were in science technology studies. I ended up enjoying the STS classes so much that I took so many that I eventually declared it as my major at the beginning of my sophomore year.
While I am still interested in technology, I realized that my interests were more situated towards social sciences, which is something that I wasn't really even aware of in high school. Cornell allowed me to merge those two interests together in the science technology studies major. After ultimately declaring a double major with sociology, I am grateful that I was able to take such a wide variety of courses because they led me to two majors that I have really loved!
You can't predict what you'll like or who you'll be in four years time. Don't try to force yourself to be the type of person that you think you should be. It's ok to not know what you want to do or who you want to be. Just fully embrace the things that interest you right now — you might just find your passion!
Also, be sure to talk to your professors and get to know them in office hours! It might seem intimidating at first, but they genuinely want you to succeed. Your professors are your conduit to all of the amazing research and resources that Cornell has to offer and you should take full advantage of that!

We are delighted to premiere the new single ‘Someone told me I was Paradise for you’ from the gifted Copenhagen-based quartet We Like We. The gorgeous new sonic creation is the first material since the band’s critically acclaimed debut album ‘A New Age of Sensibility’ (released in late 2014). The highly anticipated single is released tomorrow, 1st September 2016.
“This single is one of the results of our work over the past six months. We have had a close collaboration with sound engineer Marc Casanovas (NorCat Lyd) with whom we have explored sound, space and different ways of recording”.
Someone told me I was paradise for you is the endless mantra that is whispered in to your ear during the late hours of a dark blue summer night. It is four individual voices and reflections braided together as a unit in the depths of the collective unconsciousness.
At the half-way point, the mesmerising voice of Katinka Fogh Vindelev whispers directly to one’s mind’s eye. Like a bird in full-flight, these four combined elements of strings, voice and percussion soars majestically with unlimited possibilities of discovery, exploration and chance. The mantra-like phrases sung by Vindelev transports the listener to the poignant, dream-like fantasies of Kazuo Ishiguro’s master novels or the otherworldly realm crafted by Kafka. This sublime tapestry of gradual blissed-out tones reveals inner-most truths and awakens a myriad of feelings and emotion. The compelling, ambitious and sublime new single is nestled nicely amidst the avant-garde, modern-classical and luminaries such as Scott Walker (‘Tilt’ era) and L.A’s Julia Holter and ‘Parallelograms’-era Linda Perhacs.
Interview with We Like We.
We like We is an experimental performance and sound quartet based in Copenhagen, Denmark. Encompassing worlds of neo-classical, experimental pop and avant-garde soundscapes, the highly promising and gifted quartet comprises of Katrine Grarup Elbo (violin) Josefine Opsahl (cello) Sara Nigard Rosendal (percussion) and Katinka Fogh Vindelev (voice). All four members are classically trained, but each share a desire for exploring, experimenting, jamming and shaping a sound of their own.
Expanding their inspiration and influence from the classical roots We like We makes music driven by intuition and playfulness. I feel a lovely parallel exists between the Danish quartet’s highly-evocative and intuitive compositions and Iceland’s Amiina such is the unwavering beauty and utter magic the masterful musicians create with each sacred note. Through their collaborative compositions, We like We creates music that travels beyond the grid of genres. The band’s debut album ‘A New Age of Sensibility’ contains a kaleidoscope of enchanting sounds from the rhythmic pulses of ‘Anticipation’; spellbinding intermezzi capturing moments of divine transcendence (‘Tango’ and ‘I Began To Fall Apart’) and multi-layered choral patterns interwoven with immaculate instrumentation of strings and percussion (‘The Sound Of My Own Voice’).
The group’s first live performance took place at FROST festival in Copenhagen in February 2013: a unique double-bill concert with Efterklang, playing on top of a 1400-ton heavy diesel engine. Lead singer Katinka Vindelev has toured the world with Copenhagen’s Efterklang in addition to being in the choir for U.S. luminary singer-songwriter Julia Holter. Furthermore, Vindelev’s solo project of I am now offers an invaluable insight into an incredible talent. Violinist Katrine Elbo has performed with Danish artists Rasmus Seebach, Mew and Sanne Salomonson as well as a host of others (including The Danish National Symphony Orchestra). Percussionist Sara Rosendal has been an integral part to various Danish orchestras like DRUO, DRSO and The Royal Danish Orchestra. Josefine Opsahl (cello) has worked with a wide array of composers, most lately with Russian composer Sofia Gubaidulina.
Congratulations on the stunning debut album, ‘A New Age of Sensibility’. One of the striking aspects of the debut record is the sheer range of styles and musical traditions; at once it feels a beautifully realized fusion of modern-classical and pop music. Firstly, please discuss the writing process for these musical compositions? I can imagine certain pieces such as ‘The Sound of My Own Voice’ and ‘Tisina’ took quite some time to come to completion?
Sara Nigard Rosendal: Thank you for the kind words. All of our music emerges from a place of curiosity and playfulness. In the making of this album we had long jam-sessions that we recorded. We then listened to these and found some interesting themes or sounds that we tried to develop. We have worked with different dogmas in order to always expand the scale of what each of our instruments can do. None of the music is written down and there is always a touch of improvisation when we play. We like it that way, because it keeps the tracks alive.
Katinka Fogh Vindelev: This album has evolved slowly within a period of 2 years. Creating the music after getting invitations from two different progressive festivals in Copenhagen. Firstly FROST in February 2013 and later same year the experimental Wundergrund Festival. So instead of rushing into a studio, we’ve shaped and composed the music with a live concert mindset so to speak, cutting into the core of what we as a group are capable of playing and wanting to express together.
SNR: ‘Tisina’ means Silence and was an attempt to make a track that dwells on simple phrases and sounds and then create a state of meditation. It became very clear, however, that in the deep of silence there are a few demons as well. This was not something we planned – it just happened. It was not really a hard piece to make, it just requires the right state of mind and a good sense of reacting and communication.
KFV: ‘The Sound Of My Own Voice’ was a more complex composition yes, but as we’re always on the lookout for the essence of our ideas, it slowly revealed itself as repeating patterns slightly out of sync, each instrument representing an individual voice, explaining the title as well ‘The Sound Of My Own Voice’.
In terms of the instrumentation, there are gorgeously crafted arrangements throughout the record, for voice, strings and percussion also. I would love to gain an insight into your classically rooted backgrounds? Each member clearly brings their own unique vision to this special record and clearly, a deep connection is formed between the members.
SNR: We are all studying at the conservatory. Josefine and Katrine (cello,violin) are currently doing their masters at the Royal Danish Academy of Music. Katinka (voice) has a BA degree in classical voice and is currently doing her Masters in Electronic Music and Sound Art alongside private singing lessons in Copenhagen and Berlin. I have a BA from the Royal Danish Academy of Music and I am currently studying my masters in the music academy in Malmö, Sweden. We are all very happy to undergo this education. It gives us a high technical level on our instruments that then provides freedom to express ourselves. Having the entire music history as a background when creating music, is extremely helpful.
I would also love for you to recount your memories of forming We Like We? It’s fascinating (and very fitting) that your first live performance took place at a festival in Copenhagen alongside Efterklang in 2013. You all must have fond memories of this particular concert.
KFV: It took us about a year before we met Sara, so We like We was founded by Katrine [Grarup Elbo], Josefine [Opsahl] and I in August 2012 collaborating with an electronic musician, who happened to be my sister. Due to a life changing event, including the birth of my wonderful niece she pulled out shortly after our first concert and We like We continued for a while being a trio. This was an important transition, realizing that we wanted to create all the electronic layers ourselves as a natural expansion of our acoustic instruments instead of having a fourth member with a non classical background effectuating us. One day in the middle of an improvisation session I desperately grabbed a pair of claves and it became crystal clear to everyone in the room, we needed a percussionist. (Haha) Luckily Sara, who was already a friend of Katrine and Josefine’s, had common ideas and courage and joined We like We in the late Summer 2013, completing the band.
SNR: There is definitely a unique chemistry between the four of us. Each of us really needed the platform that We like We is. We all needed to do something more than what we would get from our schools. We wanted to be a part of the initial phase of the creative process – to be more than interpreters.
KFV: Regarding our first concert alongside Efterklang in February 2013, it was of course an extraordinary event for us. It felt like the beginning of something very unique, That night we performed on top of a 1400 ton heavy Diesel engine, wearing handmade costumes, that we designed ourselves and we had even hired a light designer. Liberating, personal and inspiring at the same time. I’ve been touring with Efterklang for a couple of years (singing and playing keys) alongside starting up with We like We back in Copenhagen, so we were already closely connected personally and professionally. Efterklang have curiously followed us from the very beginning, supported us, showing up at our concerts etc. Such an acknowledgement from a band, that is known for taking quite some musically risks themselves, does of course mean a lot to us.
My current favourite must be ‘The Sound Of My Own Voice’. It’s such an utterly captivating composition with intricate string arrangements and stunningly beautiful choral patterns. Please discuss the construction of this particular composition? I wonder did the words and voice parts come first or was it the cello and violin parts? I just love the dynamic, and how the piece gradually unfolds (and blossoms) before your very eyes.
SNR: ‘The Sound of my own Voice’ was supposed to be a strong proclamation of the right to be an individual. In the case of this particular track, the message came before the lyrics and the music. However, we discovered that there is a lot of pain and vulnerability in saying that you only need yourself. It is a battle between individualism and communion… ‘The Sound of my own Voice’ is a track that has had different shapes before the album-version, where we have worked with different melodic patterns played displaced. It becomes a kind of ‘free polyphony’.
I love the sequencing of ‘A New Age of Sensibility’ where several short passages are inter-woven with the more lengthy pieces. For example, ‘I Began To Fall Apart’, despite it being just over one minute in duration, a spectrum of emotion ascends into the forefront of your heart and mind. Was it a conscious decision to include shorter pieces (which also serve wonderfully as interludes) on the album?
SNR: We have thought of the shorter pieces as intermezzi (we mostly use classical terms when talking about music, because that is the language we know). When in the practice room, we would say ‘we need some ginger’ – something to ‘rinse the mouth for new flavours’. It was conscious that some pieces would be short and some long and that some pieces would only involve one or a few of us (‘I’, ‘Wakey Wakey Beast’, ‘Tango’…). We wanted the entire album to be one long narrative but for each track to still tell a story in itself.
The album was mixed in collaboration with sound artist Jacob Kirkegaard. Was there a stage in the music-making process that proved most challenging for you? Also, during the recording sessions themselves, was it a case that happy accidents would occur naturally that would lead to sketches or ideas of a song?
KFV: It was quite an intense but super smooth recording session. 11 tracks in 3 days back in February 2014 at the former National Danish Radio’s epic studios in Copenhagen. Magical almost, suddenly being in a studio, experiencing how we nailed a lot of the tracks in first take. We obviously had common visions. Recording all at once, giving the album this unpolished live touch that I find very compelling.
Having Jacob Kirkegaard on board, was a fine addition to the post-production, as he has such good ears, specialized in mainly unheard sounds. As he is also my partner he and I spent all summer in NYC on an artist in residency programme, working sporadically on the mix from April sending it back and forth across the Atlantic, for the other’s to give feedback. It turned out to be quite a time-consuming and challenging process while our music demands a lot of shaping and balancing, the instruments in between, being super dynamic, consisting of a group of four equally important voices. But it was worth the effort, of course and we wrapped up the final mix by the end of August.
SNR: Working with acoustic instruments alongside a sometimes heavy effectuation can be challenging, or at least it can be time-consuming to get the balance right. There were many magical moments. I remember that the track ‘Unite Me’, we really nailed first take. When we listened to it, right after recording, it was a complete feeling if unified transcendence. We all cried.
‘Anticipation’ conjures up the timeless sound of Steve Reich’s ‘Music For 18 Musicians’ with its sublime rhythmic pulse and compelling arrangements. I would love for you to discuss the various parts to this particular composition.
SNR: We are big fans of Reich so it is nice to be associated with him. ‘Anticipation’ is one of the more energetic pieces on the album and definitely is inspired by minimalistic pulsating rhythm. This helps underline the title as well.
KFV: We wanted to work with an often experienced consequence of anticipation – at least according to us. You are expecting something. You are eager. You are pulsating from excitement. You are narrowing down your experience of what is actually happening, overshadowed by your wishes, your anticipation, instead of staying connected and true to the moment. And suddenly, bang, reality hits you. You are out of breath.
We found it interesting to work with this sort of unexpected collapse. Illustrated by a hectic rhythm suddenly dissolving, breaking down, and turning into a slow tango – out of nowhere. How many times does life actually evolve as anticipated? There is something extremely beautiful about these processes and transformations.
In terms of inspiration and musical influences, please discuss your most cherished composers and artists? Also, what are your earliest musical memories?
SNR: One of the biggest and also early musical memories is listening to Per Nørgårds I Ching (solo percussion) when I was about eleven. That was when I realized what music could really do. Especially the third movement including a kalimba was mesmerizing to me. My earliest memories is of my father playing the guitar, I think.
KFV: I was very much into Chopin as a kid, but who wasn’t? It’s so catchy and soulful at the same time! Now I listen to all sorts of music and sound. I easily get bored when it comes to mainstream music, classical as well as pop/rock, it’s just too predictable. Silence is great though. I just worked with Julia Holter, and I think she is such an interesting composer. I love when artists manage to create catchy music with a twist. That’s a true skill. Who else… Terry Riley, John Cage, Schumann and Kuku Sebsebe.

text: I enjoy a good deep breath, you know one where the lungs fill up nice and full and then the exhale that leaves you relaxed and wanting to take another? I couldn’t always do that in California, sometimes I’d start coughing, but in NE Ohio, it feels really nice, even better with my eyes full of God’s fall canvas all around me. Reading the Bible has become for me a good deep breath. I find myself reading phrases of God’s promises, wonder, and grace, and taking (literally) a deep breath. I want to soak it in, fill up, find enjoyment in His love for me. Guess what? Sometimes I don’t even finish my whole Bible reading section because the breath feels so good (shh … don’t tell anyone!) I need the Word of God in my soul like I need oxygen. I need it’s refreshing breeze wooing me away from worldly lusts. I need it oxygenating my blood so I bleed Bibline. I need its sweetness more than any other ink and pages can offer me … because I need God and the power of His Gospel coursing through my bones! Sorry, I think I was trying to be a songwriter or poet there.

Chinese cuisine features a distinct taste that’s quite different from our own local chicken dishes. I’ve loved it since I first tried one and always asked for one in any restaurant offering Chinese meals since then. In relation to this thirst for Chinese chicken as well as other dishes, Flavors of China is a place to be.

YORK, Pa. — Rutter's Farm Stores is continuing to remodel stores to incorporate beer sales. It most recently added beer to its Middletown, Pa., location, which is the first convenience store in Dauphin County to offer a beer cave.
It also added a beer cave to its store in Waynesboro, Pa., which is the second Rutter's store in Franklin County to offer beer. That location and the Mercersburg, Pa., store are the only c-stores to have beer in that county, the company said.
The York-based chain first added beer sales at a store in Lancaster County in December 2016, following a change to Pennsylvania law that makes it easier for c-stores to offer beer, as CSNews Online previously reported.
"Rutter's is striving to get beer in as many of our stores, present and future locations, as possible. Waynesboro and Middletown are two very popular locations for us and we are excited to be able to provide this offer for our loyal customers, giving the convenience they deserve," said Robert Perkins, vice president of marketing for Rutter's.
The c-store chain's beer caves include a wide assortment of craft, domestic and imported beers and ciders. Singles and six-packs are offered in the front cooler doors, and 12-packs are located inside the beer cave, which has a "perfect beer drinking temperature" of 29 degrees.
Both the Waynesboro Rutter's and Middletown Rutter's have been renovated to accommodate the beer cave and seating for at least 30 people. Customers can purchase items from the beer cave on Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 2 a.m., and on Sundays from 9 a.m. to 2 a.m., in compliance with Pennsylvania law.
Rutter's is a family-owned convenience store chain operating more than 60 locations throughout central Pennsylvania.

If a player has been incorrectly included in a match that has since been started, go to the Scoring menu and select Match Details/Teams. Click once on the player that is to be replaced, highlighting them in blue, and then click on the Replace button at the bottom of their team list.
A new window will open with the team’s players who are not playing in the current match, so select the required replacement player and click Add. The replaced player will be substituted by the replacement player in the team list, then click Save to return to the scoring window.
NB: After clicking Save, all batting and bowling performances for the replaced player will be automatically transferred to the replacement player.
If a player is substituted out of a match that has already started, and their replacement is able to bat and bowl in the remainder of the match, go to the Scoring menu and select Match Details/Teams, as above. Click the Add Player button for the appropriate team and select the required Existing Player (from the squad list or full database), or Create New Player if required, click Add and then Save.
This process will add the Replacement Player to the respective Batting and Bowling dropdown lists, so they can be selected to bat or bowl from this point on.
However, in order to keep the Replaced Players batting or bowling performances tied to them (unlike above), they need to be shuffled down in the Batting Order to the 12th (or lower, if there is a nominated 12th Man who is not the Replacement Player) possible ‘batting’ position, and the Replacement Player shuffled up into the Playing XI. This will keep the batting scorecards correct in both 2- and 4-innings matches.

The Daily UI Challenge is a great way to flex the design muscle. I'll be posting my projects here as they are completed and all can be found on my Dribbble page as well.
I used the opportunity to share some of the inspiration I received walking outside the office last night. It was dusk - the sky had this beautiful teal-blue pop to it, clear as can be, the power lines and mountain in the forefront provided great contrast.
My designs lately have been in a light color scheme so I decided to also challenge myself with a dark UI. Enjoy!
Going for a sleek UI and giving Android some love.
For entering the CVV, I envision the two cards swapping places so the back card is now in the foreground.
In honor of my favorite band, and the fact that I just scored pre-sale tickets, here's a landing page for Depeche Mode.
What do we want? Tickets. When do we want them? Now!
With this challenge I wanted to create a widget that's simple and elegant using a light ui.
This design was inspired by the many plane flights I've been on lately. I fly on different airlines and it would be great to have a centralized app for all my rewards accounts, itineraries, etc.
On another note, it's the first app icon I've designed on a white background. Really enjoyed how the gradient in the shape turned out.
For this challenge piece, I wanted to create an animation to further show additional content as well as push myself past posting just a static image.
Overall, I wanted to design a user profile that feels more as if it's telling a story than pushing out stats. The content focuses more on the person and I feel that the typography aids in that goal.

The presence of stains and superficial irregularities in dental enamel surfaces can be solved through the use of an enamel microabrasion technique.
Many factors can cause these superficial alterations, such as developmental defects amelogenesis imperfecta , imperfect enamel formation, or the removal of an orthodontic appliance in adolescent patients with poor dental hygiene during its use.
we can employ enamel microabrasion procedures using acid/abrasive products, which not only allow an economy of healthy dental tissues but also provide permanent and considerable aesthetic results.

Jesus had a cousin called John the Baptist who was the son of Elizabeth, Mary’s old friend. When John grew to be a man, God told him to give the people a special message.
John looked up to see who was next in line, it was Jesus! The two cousins stared at each other then Jesus went down into the water. When He came out, He was praying and suddenly, it seemed as though the sky had split in two! God’s Holy Spirit came in the form of a dove and hovered over Jesus. This showed all those watching that Jesus had the Holy Spirit in Him.
A great Voice spoke from the sky, “You are My Son. I have always loved You and You have always pleased Me.” It was the Voice of God. He was telling the people they should listen to Jesus.
Sometimes, when John the Baptist preached a group of religious leaders would watch him closely. They wanted to know whether John was really a prophet sent from God.
“Who is this strange man preaching in the middle of a river?” They asked each other.
The Pharisees looked around. They saw no one who looked important. A few days later John saw Jesus in the crowd again and called out.
They decided to keep an eye on both John and Jesus. After Jesus was baptized in the river, He went into the desert to pray. God’s enemy met Jesus in the desert. God’s enemy, the devil, wanted to spoil God’s plans for Jesus. He hates it when people grow close to God.

Ikea White Vinyl Couch - Leather Ottomans and Sofa. bamboo curtain panels. faux bear skin rug. red sofa company.
Published at Friday, March 08th 2019, 17:34:13 PM. Sofa By Solaina Leduc. This beast of a sofa was left behind in an apartment, but it wasn’t quite what the new tenant had in mind. With $20 worth of spray paint, and an enviable abundance of confidence, the tenant gave this old piece a fresh new face. While most of us haven´t made over a whole couch, I´m sure many of us have found random furniture in our homes—and it probably needs at least a little work.

If you're unable to reach up into the corners, a tool or something like a ruler wrapped with a soft towel will help to send the fill up to round out any sunken edges. I used a cordless telephone. True story. Add filling until you can't add anymore, and then add more. Continue to add fill as you back your hand out of the cushion, making sure there is a decent amount down by the zipper -you don´t want what you stuffed up in the top of your cushion to all settle to the bottom.

Now don’t just shove a bunch of cotton batting in there because it will result in a lumpy cushion. Instead, take off the cover (most sofas these days have removable covers) and wrap the cushion in a layer or two of quilt batting or foam wrap. If you find it shifts around a bit secure it using a spray adhesive. And if you find there are still a few saggy spots, now is the time to fill them with extra pieces of cotton batting. Easy peasy.
