As a chair manufacturer,we will try our best to satisfy the users, following aspests will be taken it to consider , including the size, the quality of the chair, and the overall ergonomics of it.
The basic requirement of chair should fit the users’ hight and support the users’ weight . The height of the chair should be so that both feet evenly hit the ground with the weight of seater evenly distributed.
An ergonomic chair should have appropriate options to allow users to adjust it. if user find that he or she could not adjust the height of the chair, then the design it is really too bad. It could not be worse that your users begin to have problems as he or she may need to strain to look at the computer screen or may need to bend in awkward positions to write on the desk.The monitor should be at eye level and there is no need to looking up or down. The keyboard should be at arm’s length and not too much tension on user’s forearm.
The seat of the chair should not wear down quickly. To test this, sit in the chair for 60 to 90 minutes and then stand up. Does the seat deflate or cause the bottom to hurt? If so, this chair should be checked and upgraded. An ergonomic chair seat will not begin to wear and deflate after using it.
All ergonomic chairs should have a lower back rest to help support users’ spine. If the chair does not have a lumbar rest, it should be replaced. The rest is in place to relieve the additional pressure on users’ spine.In addition to having a back rest, the rest should be adjustable to fit users’ body size. If the rest can not be moved, what is the point in having it there? The back of the chair should have a supportive lumbar curve that hugs users’ lower back.
This point not be appropriated to all kinds of chair, but if the chair should be move usually, the easy swviel and movement is required.The chair which have five pedestal base is good to user’s spine . If it is not, the chair will be easy to cause the spine to take on an awkward shape. The five pedestal base helps to move around the room and distributes the weight of person who seated evenly. If the wheels on the base are not functioning properly,it is better not move it and take it to manufatcuer to fix it .In addition to easy to move wheels, the chair should swivel without a struggle.
Chair arm rests should not be too high. It should not raise the shoulders unless the user are just resting.Armrests could help the users relax and provide the additional support when he or she need to lean back. The armrests on the chair should be adjustable as well. If they are not, there is no reason to have them. Armrests that are too low will cause users’ body to strain and armrests that are too high will wear users’ arms down and create unnecessary pressure on the spine.
The main advantage of metal frame guest seats is strength, generally speaking they are a welded construction and this gives them strength and durability.Another benefit is the flexibility of metal, particularly aluminium to enable unusual designs to be produced. This gives designers a lot of opportunity to create some great elegant guest and visitor chairs.

I used to have family picnics at this beach when I was small. I haven't been back in a long time. I remembered there being deer here, but I thought they were all gone. When we went for our picnic though, there was 'evidence' of deer! How amazing to see a deer on the beach?! I've been to a beach a few hours drive south of Sydney with kangaroos on it, but that's another story!
The other week, my dad told me he had three memories of me as a child that are his favorites. One of them is this: I was 2 or 3 years old and we were having a picnic here. I must have been playing in the sand and looked up to see a car identical to my dad's car driving out of the car park and back up the hill. I started running as fast as my little toddler legs could carry me, yelling "Don't leave me daddy! Don't leave me!!"
My dad loves reminding me of that story, just about every time he sees me. He thinks it's hilarious. It probably is.
I love this dress! The bird print is so pretty, with the pink, yellow and olive green, the colours are perfect! It fits really well and is so comfortable to wear too. It's so nice to wear something that doesn't feel mass produced!
Now for the shoes. What a mission. I tried to order them from Wanted, but they don't ship to Australia. There is a branch of Wanted Shoes in Australia, but with completely different stock. Not a single pair of Oxfords, which I basically live in. The lovely man over at Wanted in the USA apologized that I was unable to have the shoes, but promised me a free pair if I ever move to the USA... Tempting... I might relocate for a free pair of shoes. People have done crazier things, right? In the end, I managed to get them from Amazon, which surprised me because Amazon is usually the most difficult place to have things shipped to Australia form (due to trade restrictions etc) So, happy me! Every time I wear these shoes, people stop me in the street! They are truly a hit. I didn't think they were that out there, but I suppose I don't blend in too well!
I hope you have a great weekend, is there any exciting plans I should know about?

As the host of The Coffeehouse on Pittsburgh’s WYEP-FM, I am tasked with providing the Sunday morning soundtrack for listeners who value independent, non-commercial radio. For many, Sunday morning is a time of reflection and relaxation. Often, I receive calls from listeners who are drinking coffee and doing the NYT crossword, getting ready for church, or doing laundry and other household chores. The common theme of these conversations is a general feeling of contentment and contemplation.
While we often need to be energized and in a rush, it seems as if Sunday mornings are still an opportunity for many of us to recharge. With that in mind, I often sprinkle “indie folk” into the mix of music I play, as it is the perfect complement to early Sunday mornings. By “indie artists,” I mean those who generally produce non-mainstream music, independent of major record labels.
Indie folk’s entry onto the musical landscape as a genre dates back to the 1990s and the rise of independent labels. Suddenly, it wasn’t just the major labels making an impact, but indie labels and artists that found success through constant touring, coinciding with the rise of the Internet. No longer did musicians need to have the corporate music machine behind them, as accessibility to music grew exponentially.
A prime example of the classic indie folk artist is Ani DiFranco. A singer/songwriter with grit, Ani is a poet, advocate and a CEO. Starting out in her teens, Ani sold dubbed cassette tapes from the trunk of her car following shows. Eventually, she formed her own label, Righteous Babe Records (this is one of the most amazing success stories in the independent music cannon). Beck was another artist who began in the indie-folk scene, but has since become a major part of the established musical landscape. Despite the fact that he’s now supported in full by a major label, his music maintains that “indie” folk sound, as displayed on his most recent release, “Morning Phase” (2014).
Interestingly enough, TV shows, movies and commercials have given indie music its greatest exposure over the past two decades. The Lumineers may have never found the mass audience they now enjoy without having been featured on the Bing commercial. An overwhelming number of artists were first exposed to the masses by “Grey’s Anatomy.” How many artists have iPod commercials to thank for their mass appeal?
So, why do advertisers often choose independent players over established acts? The independent artists are less concerned about “commercializing” their work, instead preferring exposure to as wide an audience as possible. And often these artists charge significantly less for the rights to their songs.
Not all indie folk artists produce relaxing, mellow songs; some make music that’s quite gritty and energizing. But for the purposes of The Coffeehouse playlists, I’m going to focus on three artists that epitomize the gentler side of indie folk. They share many of the same qualities as three indie pioneers: Nick Drake, Jeff Buckley and Elliott Smith (sadly, none of whom are still with us). The music of these newer artists embodies the quietness and introspective vibe of Drake, the often dramatic appeal of Buckley, and the grit and juxtaposition of Smith’s lyrics versus his melodies.
James Vincent McMorrow is an Irish singer/songwriter who has just released “Post Tropical” (2014), the much anticipated follow up to his 2010 debut, “Early in the Morning.” Through McMorrow’s own admission, “Post Tropical” requires attention and engagement … perfect for early Sunday mornings (as was his debut album). Maybe that’s what first strikes you about indie folk artists: they appear to produce beautiful background music. BUT, when you are able to focus and truly listen, you find they provide much more meaning and depth, in an unobtrusive way. “Post Tropical” is a similar expansion of sound, along the lines of Iron & Wine’s career progression. Also, an easy way to be introduced to new artists is via cover songs. McMorrow’s version of Steve Winwood’s “Higher Love” is a wonderful cover, as it features his unique sounds, yet it’s also familiar enough for those who are fans of the original (though not on “Post Tropical”).
City and Colour is primarily Canadian singer/songwriter Dallas Green (much like Iron & Wine is Samuel Beam). What began as a side venture during his days with Alexisonfire (since defunct), City and Colour is now Green’s sole project. His fourth studio release was 2013’s “The Hurry and the Harm.” While similar in vocal pitch to McMorrow and Fitzsimmons, City and Colour exhibits a more rootsy and hooky sound. Imagine this is Sunday morning after your coffee has kicked in a bit — that’s how Dallas Green’s music might perk you up. While his most recent album is a solid effort, “Bring Me Your Love” (2008) and “Little Hell” (2011) are essential albums in his catalog.
These are three artists I value; they are a constant on my personal playlist. But they represent just a small slice of the indie folk music scene (see my more comprehensive list below). Each and every Sunday I have the privilege of helping new artists find an audience and exposing listeners to deeper album cuts of classic or more commercially-oriented albums. Being the host of The Coffeehouse allows me three solid hours with just my coffee, my listeners, and the music that matters.

At Route1, we pride ourselves on being thought leaders in legal recruitment. We want to change recruitment, for the better. This involves putting candidates – not recruiters – at the centre of the process, promoting transparency and creating trust.
As part of this, we are now introducing a guaranteed signing on bonus of 5% of a candidate’s salary when they find their next role using Route1. We prefer that you, the candidate, are rewarded for your success.
Referral rewards have long been a part of recruitment, but candidates are rarely rewarded for their part in the process – apart from finding their ideal job, of course! When Route1 launched, we replaced a referral scheme with a charitable donation for every associate hire we make: £500 to War Child and £500 to the Employer’s chosen charity.
From the start, Route1 has always been a candidate-focussed platform, so let’s reward those candidates that choose to find a new role through us. After all, it is you that are going to help us change the recruitment market! So, from now on, all of our candidates will receive a guaranteed sign-on bonus when they start their new role.
It’s not a new concept in the developing shakeup of the recruitment market – there are many of our competitors who give a fixed amount to the candidate when they start, passing on the cost savings. For example, Lex-Step give their candidates £2,500. But we know that Route1 can do more. With average NQ salaries in London above £70,000, that would be a bonus of £3,500. Or, if you were starting at a top US firm, a bonus of over £7,000. This amount naturally increases the more senior you get.
All you have to do is sign up with Route1, search for your ideal role, and make your applications. It’s that simple. When you are successful and start your new job, we’ll give you 5% of your basic salary in two tranches.
For any questions on our guaranteed sign-on bonus, or to discuss your career options with Route1, speak to our Engagement Team.

With the holidays FAST approaching I was thinking about some of my favourite products. As an honoured Aveeno Ambassador I’ve been lucky to get to test out a lot of Aveeno products and the brand has become a staple and a family favourite. This year I added to my Aveeno favourites and I’m so excited to be able to share them with you!
As you might guess from the name of this product, this is my daily moisturizing lotion. I love keeping this lotion or the Sheer Hydration version right by the shower so when I get out I can moisturize and get on with my day.
This is my favourite sunscreen EVER!!! It goes on just like a lotion so in the summer I use it as my moisturizer too. It NEVER leaves that strange sticky feeling you get with most other sunscreens and it comes in a wide range of SPF levels.
At night I like to use the Stress Relief Lotion. It of course keeps skin hydrated all night but I especially love the scent: lavender, chamomile and ylang-ylang helps me to relax and get a good night’s rest!
This is one of the best body washes I’ve ever tried. The smell isn’t overwhelming – it’s just soft and fresh and I find that it isn’t overly rich in its lather. Most importantly, it makes skin feel soft and smooth but not greasy or as though there is a coating left behind.
You really can’t go wrong with ANY of the Aveeno hand creams. All of them work well to keep hands soft and smooth while not feeling greasy. I keep this particular hand cream at my desk at work so I can reach for it throughout the day.
My friends at Aveeno have generously put together a lovely gift basket of ALL my Aveeno favourites for one lucky Canadian (excluding Quebec) reader.
All you have to do is fill out the rafflecopter form below! Good luck!
I’d also love to know what your favourite Aveeno products are! Share with me in the comments!

I have arranged with TIm to have us all parked on the grass across from the main parking lot as apposed to being parked up and down the streets. Show is free and will have food and half dressed girls walking around to take pictures. Should be a lot of fun for us. Meeting spots will be decided as the show gets closer.
I would like to go to this especially that we hardly ever do anything on saturdays,so I'm in for this one.
Let's make it unanimous,since Ryan got us a good spot and all.
I don't foresee any problem making it, being that it's so close.
Defensive driving course FTL. Have fun guys.
It has been rescheduled for June 27th so I will definately be in as well as my dad with his Chevelle.
Hey Ryan do you think there will be room for us? Do you still have those spots reserved for the club?
Hey Tony, you mean for next weekend right? Is the weather looking crappy for next weekend to?
Hey Chris The weather for Saturday 6/27 is lookin good and in the 80's as well maybe we could make some plans for saturday or see if something is going on.This effen weather for this week looks to be crappy for the entire week.
There is another show this weekend.
Is anybody still interested in checking out the automat show? Unfortunately I can't make the sunday show due to prior engagement. I will still make the morning run to OBI, but I have to be back by 12:00. Hopefully we can get a few guys over to the automat show.
i want to go to this.what are the plans for club parking?
Ryan is MIA, I believe that there some arrangement with Automat as far as parking.
I wasn’t planning on going to this one because I have something going on in the evening.
Yet I may change my mind at the last minute, and go for a little while.
I don’t like doing 2 shows in one weekend; it takes too much time away from my family.
i agree with family time,but after all this rain..........2 nice days for car shows is like hitting the lottery....lol.
Let's try to make one of these shows happen maybe we can get Lou involved and get some of the eastside boys involved..
Are we going to meet up earlier to cruise in together? Maybe we can meet at Tri county and cruie in from there.
It sounds like a plain, now just pick a time. I can meet Queens members at the Seacrest diner. We just need a time.
Since it start at 8:00 I thought maybe we should get there by the latest 7:30. Its about 15 min from Tri county flee market so if we meet up at like 7:00 and leave by 7:15 that should give us more than enough time. Let me know if this is a good idea.
For those who want to go, we will be meeting at tri county at 7:15 and we will be leaving by 7:30. Its about a 15 min ride. Hope to see some of you guys there.
Its on , see you guys at tri county at 7:15.

A group of Telford supporters are appealing for fans of the Club to come forward with old programmes, photos and memorabilia of times gone by as part of a project to raise awareness about dementia in the borough.
These guys are probably in their late forties now.
Over the last 100 years and more people have come to watch Wellington Town, Telford United and more recently AFC Telford United play football. In that time there have been many great times and the project aims to get behind those stories to find out peoples personal memories and look at questions like who you went with to your first game? What was the atmosphere like? What sounds, songs and stories do you recall?
The intention is build a set of resources that can be used by the wider community to engender conversations and unearth lost memories between friends, family and carers who look after people with dementia.
The project will be launched on 30th March to coincide with the Club’s gave versus Nuneaton which is being sponsored by Peter Reynolds of Aruba Projects on behalf of the Alzheimer’s Society. A ‘Pop-up museum’ will be created in the Learning Centre at the ground where people will be able to put their memorabilia on display and tell their personal stories.
Rob Corbett, Dawley historian and lifelong supporter said “Football generates all sorts of passions, emotions and stories. The project aims to capture these through our individual and collective memories. We want people to come forward with their stories and things that they have stored away in their lofts and cupboards to share them with young and old to reinforce the clubs community links and the spirit that makes the club so special”.

As anyone who has a disability which affects mobility knows, being able to travel while experiencing minimal disruption to your day-to-day life is invaluable.
Often, public transport isn’t accessible or accommodating for wheelchair users. That’s why wheelchair accessible vehicles, or ‘WAVs’ as they’re more commonly referred to, are a key part of retaining an independent lifestyle.
But just like when shopping for any vehicle, it’s important to resist the temptation to buy the first one you see. When choosing a WAV, it’s especially important to do research and make sure your vehicle is perfectly suited to your needs.
It’s best to start by making a checklist of the modifications you’ll need for your individual circumstances, so when browsing vehicles online or visiting showrooms you’ll be able to match your requirements to the specifications of the vehicles available.
First of all, think about the size of your wheelchair. Your WAV will need to have at least enough space for it to fit in, or more if you have two wheelchairs and often travel with both.
Also consider how many people you are likely to be travelling with. Most WAVs are available in small, medium or large. A small WAV can usually seat four passengers, whereas a large WAV such as a minibus can seat up to six wheelchair users, more suitable if you regularly travel with a large group of people.
As you’d expect, WAVs are available with a range of modifications. These include built in folding ramps for easier access (some large WAVs even have lifts) and wheelchair tie-downs for optimum safety when travelling.
In addition, folded seats which can be tucked away depending on the number of passengers or amount of space required, lowered floors or higher roofs which accommodate extra headroom and options for side or back entrances are all features which are designed to make travelling easier for wheelchair users.
Just like when buying a standard car, second hand WAVs are also available, so there’s no need to worry if your budget is restricted. But, help is also available through disability grants and the Motability scheme.
Once you’ve got the keys to your new vehicle, you’ll need to make sure you’re fully insured before you can drive away. At Fish Insurance, our insurance policy for wheelchair accessible vehicles and cars adapted for disabilities offers significant discounts for registered disabled drivers and Blue Badge holders, so you can feel confident and protected on the road.

I read the Vanity Fair interview with Cher, here, and I thought it was really interesting. Cher was the original Pop Diva, and you have to admire that at 64-years-old she's still entertaining the masses...and looking amazing while doing it.
Cher was raised by a single mother and at times in poverty, and Cher thinks she's still working hard at age 64 because she doesn't want to return to poverty.
Cher was friends with Lucille Ball!!!
The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour was one of television’s most popular shows from 1971 to 1974.
Sonny owned 95% and their attorney owned 5% of Cher Enterprises. Cher owned 0% of Cher Enterprises. How was that even legal?!

A number of things amaze me in life, but then I am sometimes easily amazed. One thing that has always amazed me is how fast life can change. An individuals life, or the life of an entire family, community, or nation can be changed by the events of just one day.
When Hurricane Katrina hit the Gulf Coast in 2005, it changed the lives of many forever. I remember having a student who was enrolled in my class that had lived in South Mississippi and saw his world turned upside down, losing the trailer he and his mother had lived in, losing all of his friends he had known and grown up with, and being relegated to living out of their old car in another state around people he did not know.
Through all the trials and hardships this young man had faced, he had come into my class with his wriggled clothes, but with his head held high and with a desire to learn and make something of the rest of his life. His attitude was amazing! So amazing that none of us teachers knew of his living conditions till he had been with us for over a month. His whole life had changed completely in one day.
Now, let’s see how one day made a difference in our lives. One day our Lord went to the cross of Calvary, suffered in our stead, and then shed His blood for our sins. There had never been day like that before and there would never be one like it again. Then, one day, the Lord rose from the grave, triumphant over death and the grave. As He came forth, so shall we in the Resurrection – and what a glorious day that will be for the Children of God.
Now, please understand something. While we all look forward to that “Day” with growing anticipation as we get older and our bodies become more frail, it doesn’t mean we are ready to catch the bus. What is does mean is that there is coming a Day when things are going to be better, much better for the children of God.
The next twenty-four hours could see a major change in your life. A young couple get married and start a new life together. The day a baby is born into a young family, the day they see them graduate, all are important days in our lives which changes things forever. A church loses its shepherd, a new one comes into the congregation, and things change. A job is lost, and material things just don’t matter anymore.
Note: Due to our schedule next week, STW may come at odd times. Please bear with us. There is coming a Day when it will all work out. Thank you for your prayers.

The ultimate modern meets vintage city, Palm Springs has encapsulated a Mid-Century style meets retro new hotel vibe we haven't seen anywhere else. With the Sonoran desert as it’s backdrop and Coachella valley just around the corner, this quirky little place is one of our favorites to return our event rentals to. The Ace Hotel, Colony Palms hotel, The Parker Palm Springs, and the Frederick Loewe Estate are some of our favorite party places here at Archive Rentals.
In the 1900’s, Palm Springs became a fashionable resort town. A few decades later, it became a hot spot for movie stars and celebrities alike. It was a getaway from the busy LA life and became a vacation haven for many.
Because of its inviting retreat inspired hotels, Palm Springs has become a go-to spot for both destination weddings and locals. The Ace Hotel is the most well known among the younger crowd. Within biking distance of downtown and the raddest architecture you’ve seen this side of the Mississippi. You can rent out the entire hotel for your nuptials which is killer!
Another notable hotel is the Saguaro. A sudden trendy hotspot in the dessert, the Saguaro is painted a rainbow of bright fluorescent colors. There’s no shortage of Instagram-able moments here! Host of the hottest pool party in the dessert, the Saguaro is packed to the brim with fun times. If you’re a fun loving, vibrant couple – this is the hotel for your wedding! Let Archive help design your colorful event with the best event rentals in Palm Springs!
The Colony Palms is another fan favorite. A luxury boutique hotel is quite literally a hidden oasis. Located in the heart of Palm Springs, there is no better spot to be. The Colony Palms has hosted Hollywood’s elite, mobsters, athletes, film producers, gamblers and politicians, over it’s nearly one hundred years in business. It was built and opened in 1936 by a reputed mobster. Now that’s an exciting history!
There is no shortage of things to do in the dessert. Take a day trip to Joshua Tree National Park or if you prefer to stay in town the aerial tramway is an exciting adventure with unbeatable views of the valley! The Air Museum is also rated one of the top 14 Air Museums in the world! If you’re into history, it’s the place for you. If you’re in town in April the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival is a fun time! And last, but not least, the reason most flock to the dessert is simple: to relax by the pool sipping a cocktail. We don’t judge.

On Thursday morning, Selena Gomez made a huge announcement on her Instagram: She said she laid low over the summer because she'd undergone a kidney transplant due to her lupus, a chronic autoimmune condition that can affect many parts of the body.
The singer and actress said she'd received many questions about where she had been during the past few months, especially as she continued to release new music but didn't seem to be promoting it. "I found out I needed to get a kidney transplant due to my Lupus and was recovering. It was what I needed to do for my overall health," she explained. "I honestly look forward to sharing with you, soon my journey through these past several months as I have always wanted to do with you. Until then I want to publicly thank my family and incredible team of doctors for everything they have done for me prior to and post-surgery."
Gomez saved the best thank you for last, praising her friend Francia Raisa for giving her a kidney. "There aren’t words to describe how I can possibly thank my beautiful friend Francia Raisa. She gave me the ultimate gift and sacrifice by donating her kidney to me," she wrote. "I am incredibly blessed. I love you so much sis."
Gomez also recommended that supporters check out the Lupus Research Alliance to learn more about the autoimmune condition. According to the alliance's website, scientists estimate that roughly 1.5 million Americans of all ages are living with the disease, which has no cure and can take months (and in some cases, years) to diagnose. While Gomez has known about her lupus for years, she didn't address it publicly until 2015, sharing that she'd undergone chemotherapy to manage her symptoms.

originally produced at New Jersey Repertory Company New Jersey Repertory Company , Long Branch, New Jersey.
In the nascent days of photography, sitting for a portrait was no mean feat and the art of capturing a photo was physical labor and highly competitive. It was during this time that an ambitious woman, Julia Cameron, went head-to-head with the neurotic Charles Dodgeson, better known as Lewis Caroll. The two were pioneers in the development of this new art form and each sought to become Britain's premiere photographer. Their divergent views and differing esthetics guaranteed a battle royale.The pawn in their battle became Alice and complicating their relationship is the presence of Lord Alfred Tennyson, the poet laureate of Victorian England and perhaps the closest a poet would ever come to being a rock-star.
We feel that this play is important on two levels. First, it presents an archetypal story. Julia Cameron represents in her person the bohemian, free spirit viewed with suspicion, who chafes under convention and searches for an ideal beauty in her landmark photographs. She is countered by the work of Charles Dodgson who is searching for formalism and coherence in his photos. Therefore, in this play we see graphically revealed through the wonderful script and the visual projections the eternal struggle between mind and heart. In addition, this is a strongly language-based play with a heightened language that is becoming more and more rare in our society where there is a fear of the degradation of language as print media give way to film, television and the internet where sound-bites frequently predominate. The theater, being a language-based art form is one of the last bastions for language and “Exposure Time” is a powerful example of this.

I stumbled on this forum after seeing a link on nohomers.net. I am looking for the *UK version* of Simpsons Comics #201 (Summer Shindig) because something has gone wrong in the mail, I haven't received it, and it seemingly can't be ordered as a back issue. I will of course pay a decent price for it if you could send it over to Belgium. If you would be able to help me out please mail me at werner_peeters at skynet dot be or leave a message here.
That kind of thing can happen over Christmas where mail is delayed.
How long have you been waiting for it? If it's been longer than 4 weeks, let the seller know that it has been lost in the mail and they should send you another one for free, or offer you a refund.
International Shipping can easily take two weeks or more.
I would offer to sell you UK comics, but I don't collect them anymore, so I never actually reached 201.

Interviewees’ responses have been condensed.
I wanted to do something with a cliff top and a beach below. When FarmVille released the summer theme with beach and sand, it hit me that I would be able to do something close to what I had originally pictured in my mind. I had so many items in storage I wanted to use that I decided to use more than one theme. I ended up creating a divided area—a boardwalk beachfront that leads up to a country setting with a fright-fest at the top.
Photograph courtesy Rolf Seyferth, via Zynga.
I love FarmVille because of the optical illusions I can perform with the game. I was always good at math, and the geometry involved in the game somehow flows in me.
I was hooked on FarmVille from day one. After playing for two years, I realized that FarmVille is a great way to meet people from all around the world. I think that my neighbors on FarmVille are the greatest and that they have made the game even more enjoyable.
Photograph courtesy Lyn Donavan, via Zynga.
I see my farm as a work of art. While some players try to earn coins and advance to the next level, I put my heart and soul into the placement of trees, ponds, animals, and other cute things Zynga provides. I try to create a beautiful, serene place that anyone would enjoy visiting.
Photograph courtesy Rolf Lyn Donovan, via Zynga.
I'm a professional artist and photographer, and up until I started playing Farmville, I really didn't have any hobbies. Farmville engages the artistic side of me, through the design process in creating a nice layout, as well as the fun and fanciful side, with the ever-changing themes that are released. The holidays are my favorite time of year. Decorating my farm has become a part of decorating my own house.
Photograph courtesy Kyra Wilson, via Zynga.
I can honestly say that I have made real friends through this game. The closest of the bunch lives in Maryland. While we've never met in person, we have spoken on the phone and chat with one another almost daily.
My goal is to have anybody who views my farm to feel relaxed after a tiring day; to think of cool waters, fresh air, beautiful flowers, and the sound of animals.
Photograph courtesy Rowena Fuentes, via Zynga.
I have always loved playing games, though I mostly stopped once I became a mother. But this one is different—there’s always something new, and I can’t help but play all over again.
My farm is based mostly around the Parisian theme that was recently released. When I saw the items in the market, it threw me into an entire farm makeover! I have everything including the Eiffel Tower and French Quarters. My favorite part of my farm at the moment though is the Vineyard area.
FarmVille gives me something to do after working all day. I can let my creative juices flow. I’m constantly redecorating and moving things around. I love the challenge of mastering crops and trees. I also have so many fantastic neighbors and friends that I’ve met from all over the world.
Photograph courtesy Shannon Ledford, via Zynga.
I loved the French Maison and English countryside decorations, and wanted to create a little haven for my animals. I also wanted to create a natural looking river from all the water features I had acquired. I’d never played a game like [FarmVille] in the past. Tetris and Bejeweled were more my thing. I never saw the attraction of games like Simms or Yoville. FarmVille just hit a chord with me.
Meeting new people is one of the best aspects of the game. I am not very artistic in the real world, so it's been really fun being able to make something that everyone seems to find so attractive to the eye.
Photograph courtesy Christine Palmer, via Zynga.
My farm is based on color. My goal was to combine every color possible in one place, adding fairies and gnomes in order to create mystery and beauty.
I like that I don’t have to play FarmVille by myself and instead play with people from all over the world. I have met new people, made new friends, and learned new customs and languages. FarmVille also differs from any other game in that it demonstrates the beauty of agriculture and nature in an age ruled by machines.

Kennedy was driving his GMC Sierra on I-40 in Wilson County when he hit a tractor-trailer before colliding with a pickup truck.
Mike Kennedy, who played drums for George Strait for 30 years, was killed in a tragic car accident in Tennessee on Friday. He was 59.
Kennedy was driving his GMC Sierra on I-40 in Wilson County when he hit a tractor-trailer before colliding with a pickup truck. Of the three people involved, Kennedy was the only fatality. Local news channel WKRN confirmed the news this afternoon.
Kennedy has been a member of Strait’s backing band, the Ace in the Hole Band, as well as a drummer for Ricky Skaggs, Barbara Fairchild and Jamey Johnson. In a 2011 interview with Avedis Zildjian Company, Kennedy talked about his left-handed drumming style and the influence of his father, who was also a drummer.
Paul Rodgers, production manager for George Strait, tweeted his reaction to the tragic news.
Strait’s tour manager also posted a tribute to the drummer on his Facebook page.
UPDATE: Strait released a statement expressing his condolences to Kennedy’s family, adding that it would be strange to look at his drum set and not see him sitting there. He shared that Kennedy was much more than a friend to him, but like family, and he would be sincerely missed.

If you know me then you know I absolutely hate short stories. If you don’t know me: Hello, nice to meet you, I hate short stories. I hate all short fiction really, novellas and poems and such. I took a fiction writing course and it was all about writing short fiction. I hated that too. But! If there was ever an anthology I was ever going to enjoy it had to be ARMORED, edited by John Joseph Adams and published by Baen. A whole collection of stories solely based around my favorite science fiction concept – power armor. With a foreword by Orson Scott Card and an unbeatable roster of authors from Dan Abnett to Brandon Sanderson to Tobias Buckell, ARMORED (Amazon) could be the military SF Promised Land. So how did it fare? Read on.
The anthology opens up with a foreword by Orson Scott Card that really sets the stage for the stories to come. This is followed by an introduction by John Joseph Adams that also amps readers up and gets the gears going. Rather than review each of the stories (there are 23 in all) I will just dip into the highlights, and man are those highlights difficult to choose from. This anthology is just that good.
“The Johnson Maneuver” by Ian Douglas starts the book with a bang. Douglas knows his Marine Corps history and aptly develops the image of future soldiers in a satisfying fashion. The power armor featured is cool (and this is just ceremonial armor!) and the aliens are really interesting. The most important part of the story as the opening act of a whole collection about power armor is the reminder that it is never about the armor, it’s about the man inside.
“Jungle Walkers” by David Klecha and Tobias S. Buckell is a near future tale that pits an unarmored weapons platoon in South America against some very heavy metal. I think what I liked most about this story was that the heroes aren’t the guys wielding the devastating weapons of the future. The story also goes a little into the politics of the conflict which are at once familiar and yet different.
“Death Reported of Last Surviving Veteran of Great War” by Dan Abnett is a great example of why I love Dan Abnett and hate short fiction. The story is told in a very vague, testimonial style that teases the imagination. I would love to learn more about the protagonist and the world he inhabits but I realize the lack of detail and brief length hold the most punch and successfully encapsulate the nature of short-story telling.
“Find Heaven and Hell in the Smallest Things” by Simon R. Green is very cool and creepy. Green shows us a world that hates and desperately wants to kill any intruders. The world itself is hostile to human life and the very flora strives to eradicate the unwelcome. A great distinction of this story is that the power armor is actually a prison to the occupant, a life saving death sentence.
“The Last Days of the Kelly Gang” by David D. Levine is probably one of my favorite stories of the collection. This story features some rough riding Australian desperadoes and a suit of steampunk power armor. This is a very unique story that just oozes awesome and I’m not even that big of a steampunk fan.
“Field Test” by Michael A. Stackpole is another of my favorites. The story actually takes place during the revolution in Libya. The armor of this story is cool while being believable. The action is great and, again, believable. I can totally imagine a mech like the one in the story, running around performing black ops missions in destabilized countries.
“Heuristic Algorithm and Reasoning Response Engine” by Ethan Skarstedt and Brandon Sanderson is perhaps the story I am most iffy about. On one hand there are some extremely cool concepts to be found in the story, from the mechs to the self replicating machines. Then on the other hand the dialogue is offensively artificial and more than a little Anime-style melodramatic. Oh and the mech’s artificial intelligence, HARRE, is probably the most annoying AI that I have ever encountered. I’m pretty love/hate about this story as well.
“The Green” by Lauren Beukes is probably my absolute favorite story of the collection. I had heard of Beukes before but never read her fiction. This story has just won me over. It is ironic because the story features no action, a shallow but ever present desire of my reading habits. Instead Beukes displays some superb world building capabilities, creating an environment that is even more haunting and subtle than Simon R. Green’s short.
All in all, ARMORED is a fantastic anthology. I loved most all of the stories, and 23 stories by some of the best authors in science fiction and fantasy for paperback price is just a steal. If you’re like me, and just the words “power armor” get your blood pumping then go grab a copy and let the metal fly.
This collection is well worth your money.
I'm surprised their isn't more scifi book out there that don't have power armor, or mechs.
Brandon Sanderson writing science fiction ?? I am surprised!

We have a 10 year old chiweenie, a 2 year old boxer and a 7 months old lab that we got in August 2014. All of the dogs have lived together since getting them. Suddenly the boxer has been attacking the chiweenie for what seems like over nothing. the attacks are getting progressively worse. I have been watching for signs of dominance/submission and some of the times the chiweenie will not look away from the boxer but most of the time will. we have no idea why the boxer has started to do this and it is very frustrating. We have the boxer and lab registered for obedience training on the 18th per advice from the vet and are keeping them separated as much as we can but that is proving to be a very big hassle. Do you have any ideas or advice on this?
5. Keep a leash and collar on all yours dogs, when you're with them-- so that you can start correcting the aggression.

With Finish Grade materials you will receive the material option that best suits the look you have selected, whether you choose a natural, stain, shader, or paint finish. As a result, the amount of natural color or grain may vary depending on the selected finish.
Used for Veneer Doors, Plain Sliced Cherry will display a consistent grain pattern and even red tones. As this is considered a Select Grade material, it will have a reduced allowance for knots, color variation, and mineral streaking. There may be an allowance for some pitch to be shown on the face, as it occurs naturally throughout Cherry.
Used for Sheet Goods, Cherry Cabinet Grade offers similar color and grain characteristics as Cherry Natural, however this material is usually offered with more natural defects than a Select or Natural Grade. The Cabinet Grade typically is used to offer a more economical price for the lower grade face and back. Due to the higher allowance for pin knots, small closed knots, color and grain variation and more, this material is not recommended for clear finishes or use on End Panels.
Cherry Unfinished Veneer on a MDF core will display a fairly consistent color and grain pattern.

That’s the word used to describe the outcome of the 2018 Point Defiance Park BioBlitz, a 24-hour survey of living things observed in the 760-acre park.
By sheer numbers, the BioBlitz more than met its purpose of forging connections between people and their natural surroundings, said Metro Parks Tacoma’s Craig Standridge.
In his role as community engagement coordinator at Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium, he oversaw the April 27-28 event, as well as the previous one in 2011.
Trek horticulturalist Jake Pool guiding volunteers at the BioBlitz.
The number of volunteer participants, 327, far exceeded his goal of 200 and was about double the 164 volunteers involved in 2011.
“The BioBlitz was a fantastic event to support our mission of connecting people to nature” said Karen Povey, also a Metro Parks Zoo conservation engagement manager. “Laughter bubbled through the forest and delight was evident on the faces of curious kids and adults alike as they met salamanders and slugs and scanned the sky for birds and bats.
“Such reactions are a wonderful testament to the value of experiences that immerse us in the natural world. The more we can connect people to their natural neighborhoods by encouraging discovery and wonder, the more our community will be inspired to celebrate and protect nature,” she said.

The BioBlitz teamed up ordinary people with naturalists and experts who could interpret what folks saw, heard and recorded using a smart phone app called iNaturalist.
Standridge said a goal was to take a snapshot inventory of life forms within the park. Over time, the record of periodic BioBlitz results will serve as a chronicle of the living landscape, helping park managers monitor changes over time.
The number of different species observed this year, 462, was 26 percent greater than the 366 noted during the 2011 Bioblitz. Encounters included more than 50 species of spiders and three species of bats, Standridge said. That was not a surprise to Standridge, who is familiar with the park’s ecosystems, but he said it was an eye-opener to volunteers.
Except for a few plants, all of the species observed during the April BioBlitz were consistent with what experts expected to find, Standridge said. Still, many of the naturalists and others who led teams of volunteer observers were impressed with the park’s biodiversity, describing it as a “green jewel sitting on the water” and an “oasis for species,” Standridge said.

Arte di Vita lime paint is an eco-friendly and user-friendly mineral paint in 32 beautiful colours. Our lime paint has good colour consistency, a velvety finish and is easy to apply. The effect is streaky but not too much so. The lime paint comes in a lovely paper bag which contains the required amounts of pigment and lime. Just add water, stir and start applying!
Because computer screens can't offer an exact representation of the colours, we recommend ordering a sample card of the lime paint colour(s) of your choice. These small hand-painted paper cards (8.6 x 5.5 cm) are free of charge (if you order a maximum of 5 sample cards).
A natural, ecological paint with a traditional character. This mineral paint has a high water vapour permeability. Because of this permeability the paint is very suitable for application in farm houses or old buildings, because it regulates moisture and as a consequence there’s less chance of moulding. Because of the varying levels of pigment absorption, the chalk paint gives a subtle and velvety look. It is advised to apply a special primer for lime paint on the wall. The lime paint is applied wet-on-wet in two layers. Simply start at the edge of the ceiling with a small, flat brush and then with a lime-paintbrush all the way down. The drying time is 1-6 hours, depending on air humidity and temperature. As soon as the first layer is dry, you apply the second layer. Please mind the fact that the lime paint is quite dark during application. The intended colour becomes visible during the drying time. Lime paint also allows good adhesion to non-treated wood or MDF, giving wood an aged and robust character. The mixing of the lime paint is very simple. Add the pigment to 1,8 litres of water and stir. Then add the chalk and mix well. A package with 2,5 litres covers 10 - 15m2.
Lime paint is eco-friendly, traditional and sustainable and is very suitable for the renovation of old buildings. The - unpainted! - surface should be 100% mineral, in order for good adhesion to take place. Mineral surfaces are; concrete, cement, stone and bricks. When mixed, lime paint can be stored and used for a few months. The paint is applied with a lime-paintbrush, which is available in 18cm width for outside walls. Lime paint is always applied in two layers. During application and for at least the next two days, you need dry weather. Be aware that you need to apply the paint wet-on-wet in order to prevent colour differences during the drying process. Avoid unfiltered sunshine on the wall during application, because it may change the colour. Clean the surface using a high-pressure hose. Wetting the wall before application of the paint gives you more application time. Application in sunlight or on a warm, dry surface could burn the chalk paint, which will result in less adhesion. The drying time per layer is 1-6 hours, depending on air humidity and temperature. When the paint colour has become lighter, the paint is dry but not yet cured. The curing takes place through air. In the carbonation process with CO2 the lime paint eventually petrifies. This process takes 1-3 months. Lime paint is a breathing, moisture regulating and absorbing paint. Because of this, the paint can darken in wet weather and lighten again when the wall dries. This is part of the lively character of lime paint. The wall can be repainted with a single layer after a few years. Direct repainting is only possible with lime paint. The lime paint can be removed using a high-pressure hose.


text: For this project we had to create a 4 page comic based around Freud’s essay on “the uncanny”. The essay explored the themes of the dead being alive and the alive being dead, I was really interested in this. on the surface my comic is about a mans shadow who comes alive and takes over his life, but its also about a hipster designer who is depressed and doesn’t like who he has become or who is trying to be… the shadow. The shadow buries him alive which is a metaphor for his depression and hitting rock bottom, the shadow has won. The man eventually overcomes his depression and starts chasing his shadow to get his life back and once he finally catches it, he realises that this shadow he was chasing was in fact himself . The last part of the chase is depicted in his head to show the psychological effects of depression. The narrative running throughout the comic is in the font Myriad Pro, its a first person poetic narrative as though the man is looking back on a dark period of his life having overcome it.

Barely a month ago, condos and house sales within Toronto’s lavish neighborhoods fell precipitously amidst a 21.4% increase in prices. Nonetheless, the Toronto Condo market is set to make a comeback from the Fed-instigated slowdown. The economy within Toronto is reliant upon professional millennials, all eyeing a piece of the Toronto condo action.
Were these prices to persist over the long term, prospective buyers would likely be indebted heavily while underwater mortgages would become a norm. Our predictions for 2018, however, dictate the contrary; flat rates are likely to persist all year long.
Across neighborhoods such as Kingsway South and Richview, Condo Chicks has gathered that a number of new homes still remain unsold, indicating the market’s resilience even after the implementation of government regulations. Within the coming 16 months, your chances of getting reduced price for the GTA home are higher.
Our extensive experience on real estate across Toronto neighborhoods like Markland Wood and Humber Heights leads us to believe that pushing prices any harder will be a poor move.
While the market this year was active and instigated affordability, more moderation is expected in 2018. The normal rhetoric regarding the NAFTA deal, sky-rocketing home prices, higher loonie, and tighter lending rules. The fair housing plans definitely created much hype, a factor which will be long forgotten then. Are you planning to move to Toronto by July 2018? Condo Chicks is your go-to realty for prospective viewing, pricing, and purchasing.
Why Is The Toronto Housing Market Compelling?
As a city and neighborhood slated to develop into a super city, Toronto easily ranks among other top real estate locations such as Bay Area of California and New York City. In the long run, buying property here will be disappointing, a travesty which Condo Chicks will help you avoid. If you are in the market for a detached unit, you will have to part with much more; the rising population, improving economy, and acute housing shortage have all contributed.
In spite of the foreign buyer tax, demand for immaculate housing will keep rising next year. Having studied the international real estate market, the prices in Toronto neighborhoods such as Islington and Edenbridge can be deemed reasonable. As many foreign buyers are now acknowledging, the Toronto Condo market is more lucrative than in the US.
With the current throttled housing supply, home owners have an upper hand in negotiating better deals. The Canadian government has also limited the development of land, causing many prospective investors to hold back. The builders also have to contend with the possible financial exposure, even with ample funding.
As a condo buyer within the neighborhoods covered by Condo Chicks, you needn’t worry about the perceived market uncertainties. While the average buyer’s income is not rising in tune with market trends, we have plans in place designed to serve each individual client best. If demographics are anything to go by, home buying years are fast-approaching for many millennials.
Would you like to start planning for your 2018 move as early as now? Contact us today for an assessment and review of your proposal. We are dedicated to settling prospective home buyers within the lush Toronto neighborhoods.

I’m still on track with training for the Devil’s Mountain 50 Mile race and have been relatively injury free during training. Between the intense summer heat, Colorado wildfires, and general feeling of 24/7 exhaustion, there has been many days where finding the motivation to run has been tough. I’ve been on the verge of quitting many times, but have managed to pull myself back together. With one month of training left, I’m still running. Bec and I have had the opportunity to check out some amazing places on our runs, so here’s a brief summary of what’s gone down since May.
Running In Colorado National Monument. Turns out the desert can get unbearably hot and canyons turn into ovens.
For Memorial Weekend, we did a point-to-point trip on the Colorado trail in the Collegiate Peaks and met our friends halfway. It was difficult finding a place that wasn’t on fire or too smoky at this time.
So this has been my summer in a nutshell. Between all the running and biking, I’ve been lucky so see quite a bit of Colorado this summer and this post only skims the surface!

Veteran politician Simon Zukas has said the sale of Zamtel is likely to be fraudulent because the process preceding the transaction has not been transparent.
Meanwhile, most participants to the Economics Association of Zambia (EAZ) public discussion under the theme 'Privatisation of Zamtel - What are the Economic Benefits?' called for a peaceful demonstration to halt the sale of three quarters of the country's biggest telecommunication company, stating that the government has failed to heed to dialogue.
Contributing to the debate, Zukas said the hiring of RP Capital to evaluate the net asset value of Zamtel was done without transparency.
Zukas however said it was more prudent to sell Zamtel than to have the company liquidated and workers get very little out of it. "It should be privatised. As to the degree, then we can discuss that but the one point I would like to make…what is the point of asking to see the RP Capital report when we were never consulted transparently about choosing it to assess the assets of Zamtel?" Zukas asked. "As far as I am concerned, the report is not worth anything…so, we would have to find someone else to be given assessment of what Zamtel is worth. But the important thing is that what Zamtel is worth is not its assets, its assets are old and probably out of date but the assets of Zamtel are the customers that will come in the future. That is where the value lies. Anyone coming in here is not interested in buying the assets. They are going to look at the market…as Zambia develops, they have seen how the cell phones have taken off. The market is there and that is what they will be looking at, but my main concern is that there should transparency. That is the key.
"We started with lack of transparency in choosing the consultant, now all the emotions should be concentrated on making sure that whoever is chosen as managing partner should be chosen in a transparent manner and we should be sure that that partner has the capacity to run Zamtel and not act in the way some of our investors have acted; when the going gets tough, they run away."
And most members of audience contended that there was need for a peaceful demonstration to halt the process of privatising Zamtel, which they said was laced with corruption.
The audience observed that whereas other national issues like Zesco electricity tariffs had been subjected to thorough debate, the government was evidently bulldozing its way in the manner it was handling the privatisation process.
Former Copperbelt University Students Union (COBUSU) president Emmanuel Mwange said the demonstration was the only way of informing the government that Zambians had rejected its roadmap on Zamtel.
"We can't come and start massaging ourselves…maybe if we decided that come next week Monday, we are going to hold a demonstration to demand that before Zamtel is given away…how are we going to ensure that those concerns are addressed? I propose that we don't become jokers," said Mwange. "If cadres can demonstrate to show their foolishness, why can't we demonstrate to show some meaningful and purposeful vision for our country Zambia? So, I challenge everybody to make sure we protect our interest."
His sentiments were echoed by former University of Zambia Students Union (UNZASU) president Antonio Mwanza who said continuing to dialogue with the government over the matter was a waste of time.
He also complained that most educated people had become averse towards matters of governance.
"What worries me is the level of lack of participation by the learned people. We have left the issues of governance in the hands of riff-raffs but we expect proper results from people who don't even understand their own lives. We are wasting our time," said Mwanza. "So, it is time for us to stand up and be a part of that process of governance. Any more dialogue will not change anything…the saying of the wise is that if you want peace, you should be ready for war in order to earn peace. What are we going to do to ensure that equity partner does not take Zamtel?"
Another member of the audience, Heather Hanene said there was need to seek the legal route of blocking the privatisation of Zamtel, and that if it failed, massive demonstration remained the only alternative.
Earlier, National Union of Communications Workers (NUCW) president Clement Kasonde said Zamtel workers accepted the privatisation of the company with a heavy heart after the government, the majority shareholder, rejected the union's plans to recapitalise it.
Kasonde said the government's move was a sharp contrast to Western governments that had offered rescue packages to companies that had been hit by the global financial crisis.
"For us as a union, our mandate is not just about representing our workers…we have considered what is happening in Zamtel and its indebtedness and the failure by the shareholder, the government, to recapitalise the company…painfully, we have accepted that we allow the company to be privatised purely on the basis that we want Zamtel to survive," said Kasonde.
But communications minister Professor Geoffrey Lungwangwa has maintained that the sale of the majority shares of the telecommunications company is the surest way of guaranteeing its survival.
In his draft ministerial statement to Parliament last Friday, Prof Lungwangwa said based on the recommendations given to government by RP Capital, there was need for government to look for an equity partner who could buy 75 per cent shareholding in Zamtel, while the government retained 25 per cent equity in the company.
Prof Lungwangwa said the government would award the 75 per cent shares to a qualified organisation of any nationality, including Zambian, which would demonstrate that it had the financial capacity and management experience to make the telecommunications company competitive.

The acidic tones and commercialised vacuity of his works are used to underscore the insincerity of his figures’ mirth. As both antagonists and anti-heroes, Yue’s hysterical cohorts equally bully the viewer and stand as subjects of ridicule. Using laughter as a denotation of violence and vulnerability, Yue’s paintings balance a zeitgeist of modern day anxiety with an Eastern philosophical ethos, positing the response to the true nature of reality as an endless cynical guffaw.

I managed to catch Montreal’s Caveboy for the first time during last year’s Canadian Music Week where they managed to impress with an energetic live show and their atmospheric yet danceable electro/dreampop sound. Since then, they’ve played a whole bunch more shows, including appearances at Pop Montreal, CMJ, SXSW. Hillside, Pride Toronto, Osheaga, and Rifflandia.
The band have returned for another CMW and will be playing The Silver Dollar as part of the NeXT POP MTL @ CMW showcase on April 19 (I’m still processing the fact that the Dollar is almost gone) as well as a show with Ria Mae at Adelaide Hall on April 21.
