Thank you to everyone who shared their feedback and thoughtful insight for the 2018 Homeowner Survey.
Homeowners were asked to provide survey input, only once per household, and the online survey was communicated through email, the website, Facebook, HOA Board newsletter, and at monthly Board meetings. In addition to answering questions, there were multiple opportunities for homeowners to provide comments and direct feedback to the Board.
This survey has provided the Board with reliable data to use in consideration of potential action for these important topics in Oak Hills.
A short-term rental, or vacation rental, is the renting out of a furnished home, apartment or condominium for a short-term stay, usually less than 30 consecutive days. Well-known short-term rental providers include: AirBnB and VRBO.
Why does this topic important?
An issue of current interest to many homeowners, as shared at monthly meetings, is what effect short-term rentals, such as those advertised through AirBnB, VRBO, etc., might have on the Oak Hills neighborhood environment, property values, and our community. Current CCRs only prohibit commercial activities which are both apparent and objectionable (such as excessive noise and vehicle traffic at residential homes).
Q: What’s your opinion on short-term vacation rentals in Oak Hills (as defined: advertised rental of less than 30 consecutive days)?
(1) We should NOT impose any new rules that potentially prohibit/regulate homeowners using their homes for short-term rentals.
(2) Short-term rentals should be further regulated in addition to current CCRs, which are not effective at limiting most short term rental activities.
(3) Short-term rentals should be PROHIBITED in Oak Hills.
Q: How would you feel having a short term rental(s) on your block?
Q: Do you believe that living next to or near a short term rental property impacts your own property value?
(1) Yes, in a positive manner.
(2) Yes, in a negative manner.
(3) No, in a positive manner.
(4) Not at all - neutral.
Q: Would you consider possibly renting your house?
(1) Yes, in long-term rentals for one-year minimum duration.
(2) Yes, including short-term advertised vacation rentals.
(3) Yes, in short-term unadvertised rentals, such as exchange programs or for visiting coaches, etc.
(4) I would never rent my house.
Q: If OHHA were to introduce a limit on the amount of time for a short-term rental, would you support…?
(5) Home rentals should be prohibited, in all circumstances, in Oak Hills.
The BOD would like to understand homeowner priorities for a variety of projects in Oak Hills for future planning. This is a working list compiled from Board and homeowner input. Please note that this prioritization feedback will be considered in conjunction with project complexity and cost in order to determine final prioritization or possibility of execution.
Q: Are there any items on the list that you believe to be completely unnecessary?
Homeowner contact information is NOT included in the posted survey results.
(1) Only ONE survey per household. If more than one survey response was submitted per household, we only considered the most complete or most current survey response.
(2) Surveys must have at least one point of contact information listed. If we couldn't determine if the respondent was an Oak Hills resident/homeowner from either a name, contact information, and/or street address, the survey data was not considered.
Comments from "qualified" survey responses are provided. These comments do NOT include associated homeowner contact information.
Questions? Please contact OHHA Secretary Lindsay Sandor or any Board Director.

New Zealand is the perfect place for backpackers because it is a safe and adventurous country to explore. Its wondrous beauty, peaceful scenery, exquisite hiking trails and friendly people make it one of the hottest backpacking locations in the world.
If you are on a working holiday visa the options for employment while you're having a great time living it up are endless. Work the winter months at a ski resort, and spend summer waiting tables by the beach. No matter the type of casual employment you're after – whether it's office admin, hospitality, sales and marketing, events and promotions work, farm work, fruit picking, fisheries, au pair jobs or labouring work – New Zealand has you covered.
On the East Cape of the North Island lies Mt Hikurangi. If you want to witness a spectacular sunrise, you can hike to the top of the mountain via a public walkway, which leads to a hikers' hut at the top. Spend the night here and wake up to the beauty of the sun rising over the landscape.
At the bottom of the mountain, you'll find the small town of Ruatoria. One of the main industries of this New Zealand region is agriculture, so it's a good place to stop and find some farm work.
On the northern coast of New Zealand's north island, you'll find the Bay of Plenty. Home to beaches you'll never want to leave and the country's only active marine volcano, this region has a host of outdoor activities to keep the most physical of backpackers active.
The area also happens to be where most of the world's kiwifruit comes from, meaning it's the perfect spot to locate a fruit picking job for the kiwifruit season.
If you're a fan of the Hobbit movie or Lord of the Rings, you can't visit New Zealand without going to Middle Earth. Discover the lush Waikato countryside where the movies were filmed and take a tour of the Hobbit holes, Party Tree and Green Dragon Inn – there's a permanent movie set there to explore!
Being a hot spot for tourism, the surrounding Waikato area has a number of different accommodation and restaurant options to cater for tourists visiting the region. If you're after a spot of work in hospitality while you're on the island, why not seek out some employment here?
As New Zealand's largest city, Auckland has a never-ending list of things to do and explore. Take in the views from the Sky Tower, visit the Kelly Tarlton's Sea Life Aquarium, go for a stroll in the J.F Kennedy Memorial Park, or take a scenic drive through the Waitakere Ranges.
A great place to base yourself for work: if you're looking for a job in sales and marketing you're bound to find a position in this city of 1.5 million people.
The capital of New Zealand, Wellington is the home of the country's parliament. This means there's often a lot going on, whether government events or otherwise, and people come from around the country to attend annual events such as the Fringe Festival, Wellington Jazz Festival, Lux Light Festival, Toast Martinborough and Wellington Cup Day.
Aside from attending these fun events, the busy calendar means there are often jobs going in the events and promotions' sector.

We are delighted you are here.
We offer digital media services and tools to drive user engagement, compliance and behavior change in healthcare, marketing, learning, and business.
You have arrived at the intersection of health information and persuasion where the science of health behavior change moves beyond facts, graphs, pages of text, readiness models and other forms of information overload. The story of healthcare providers and patients alike has been one of frustration, where encouragement, lectures, pamphlets, and increased availability of health data fail to create desired change for prevention or compliance.
We believe that the digital health revolution will not live up to its full potential until the first technology – storytelling – is integrated into the latest technology.
Once upon a time long ago in a kingdom far away, there were no written words. Just stories — and everything important was taught through them. Generation after generation shared and passed on these stories. They guided people’s lives, values and decisions because they were simple, easy to remember, tugged at their emotions, and the lessons they taught were obvious. It was a healthy and happy time… for everyone young and old had good stories to grow and live by.
One day, the written word came into being. The new King – Cognos I – decreed from his palace window – “Loyal subjects, I hereby decree – use your noggin’ in place of your heart and learn to read.” They obeyed. And over time, sadly, they forgot the stories that had guided them for so long.
Yet, delighted with their progress and because he cared for their well-being, the king filled libraries full of books on how to lead healthy lives. But unfortunately, the people were left alone with this information and expected to decipher meaning on their own.
Many tried to learn medical facts and the consequence of bad habits, but it didn’t make much difference. Stuff just didn’t stick like it used to. As a result, plagues of indulgence – obesity, smoking, drinking colas, and worse – overcame the land.
The wise healers said, “Surely Sire they’ll listen to us!” With that, they boldly set forth to print, publish and preach the same facts over and over, insisting that people get it! But they too failed. Wearing white robes and telling people what they needed, no matter how unrelenting, wasn’t the answer. Even their Royal Readiness for Change Models fell like a brick.
The King in desperation issued an edict to use the new Kingdom Wide Web. And, people flocked online to consume the new form of written word. They searched for information to improve their lives. Oh they found it! Lots of it!! But screens were wordy – and poorly designed. They soon clicked off because it all wasn’t very interesting and gave them a headache. People still did not follow instructions — and would not break their unhealthy patterns. They had become information-rich, yet wisdom-poor, and getting more unhealthy every day. “Alas!” said the King, “what shall become of us?” The sun was setting fast on these once proud people.
Perhaps cognitive stuff worked for the village of Geek and the family of King Cognos, but that was only 10 percent. As for the rest, well they were so overloaded with info and options, and so overwhelmed with how complex things had become, they simply gave up!
Resigned to fate, they slumped back on their couch, grabbed a pizza and switched to watching Kingdom Idol. As they shared a smoke, they concluded that healthy and happy people must only live in fantasy shows, reality TV and movies.
Ah, but little did they know that a wizard was about appear in the kingdom!
As you can see, our fairy tale has a purpose. Think about how information and efforts to persuade have been successfully transmitted from person to person from the beginning of time. Now consider how long the written word has been available to the average person – only 400 years. Persuasion and teaching have always been accomplished through the use of story and in relationships, whether in the form of a fairy tale, parable or watching the success of a neighbor or mentor. We are wired to pay attention, to persuade and to learn lessons and values in the context of community, most often through stories. We remember information presented in narrative much more effectively than we do information presented as a set of facts.
It’s only been in the last few hundred years that we are expected to learn alone, with a piece of paper or book as our teacher. Changing the presentation from paper to computer or smart phone screen has, in actuality, changed very little – it’s still solitary learning.
Join us as we rediscover of the ancient wisdom of storytelling and combine it with advances in neuroscience, virtual agents, and digital media. The use of narrative to influence health behavior change is being rediscovered, and research has increasingly supported this strategy. Today, these seminal forces and technologies are combining to drive user engagement, adherence and behavior change in healthcare, marketing, education and business.
Welcome to Emotive Storytelling, the Heart and Science of Persuasion.

I woke up this morning, after a weekend spent outside in the sunshine with this lovely lady, to a pile of falling snow. I just wanted to curl up and go back to sleep until spring decides to show up.
have unrealistic expectations of this month, given its history. My sisters birthday is the first day of spring, and mine follows two days after. Without fail we have always had snow storms or freezing rain as we celebrate our them together. Why did I think this year would be different? I'll have to blame it on the frequency of snow piling up this year. Robert and my trip to Paris at the end of the month is looking better than ever.
And on that note of snowstorms, here's a radish salad to feast your eyes on! It's about time for something overwhelmingly green and fresh, I don't really care if the temperature suggests otherwise. Radishes make their way into our meals about now. We've had them at our Easter get togethers in the past. They're an easy addition for any springtime meal.
This salad is quick to throw together, and I'd suggest having some butter and sea salt close by for the radish slices. This salad is quick to throw together, and I'd suggest having some butter and sea salt close by for any extra radish slices.

When you're looking at homes to buy, be sure to keep in mind the basic real estate principles of progression and regression. In a nutshell, these principles state that it is better to buy a lower priced home in a neighborhood of varying real estate prices.
On the other hand, the more expensive homes 'go down in value' because of the less expensive homes. These higher priced homes will not literally depreciate in value because of the other homes. After all, real estate almost always goes up steadily in price. The more expensive homes in the neighborhood will still appreciate, but their prices will not go up at the same rate as if the homes were separate from the others. This idea that lower priced homes bring down the value of higher priced ones is called the principle of regression.
These real estate principles deal mostly with different home prices, but the same is usually true when comparing neighborhoods with different home types. Home types and home prices are often correlated. For example, single family homes are typically more expensive than town homes. If you are considering buying a condo or a townhouse, you may want to consider neighborhoods that also have single family homes. According to the principle of progression, your townhouse or condo should appreciate at a greater rate because of the single family houses around it. The real estate principles of regression and progression are a good example of how a home's surroundings can impact the home's value.
After reading about progression and regression, you may wonder why builders even combine homes of different prices and styles when developing a neighborhood. Wouldn't it better to just build a neighborhood with only single family houses (or condos) that cost approximately the same? No.
Other economic principles in real estate show that conformity can actually hurt property value. Home buyers do not like neighborhoods with houses that are all the same. These 'cookie cutter' neighborhoods are not good for resale. But, also keep in mind that a neighborhood should not have two extremes of houses, either. Try to find a neighborhood with a reasonable degree of conformity.
Many of the neighborhoods in Charleston, SC have drastic price ranges. If you're comparing different neighborhoods to live in the area, you may want to factor in the principles of progression and regression before making a decision. You can talk with your real estate agent about the price ranges in the neighborhoods you're considering. He or she should be able to provide you with pricing information directly from the Charleston MLS. Your agent should also be able to talk with you about which neighborhoods are expected to increase the most in property value for the area you're considering.

Mr. Reynolds now beneficially owns or controls 149,914 Common Shares of the Corporation, representing approximately 0.3% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation on an undiluted basis. Mr. Reynolds also owns and controls a total of 75,000 Warrants and 250,000 stock options. Genesis Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund Limited III now beneficially owns and controls 4,885,000 Common Shares of the Corporation, representing approximately 9.7% of the issued and outstanding Common Shares of the Corporation on an undiluted basis. Genesis Emerging Markets Opportunities Fund Limited III also owns and controls 442,500 Warrants. The Private Placement was unanimously approved by the directors of the Corporation.

Years ago I decided to stop teeing up my ball on par 3s with my irons because I felt that it gave me a better chance at hitting an accurate shot. Whether or not it was actually true, I believed that when I teed the ball up it made the dispersion of my shots a bit wider.
Recently I put this theory to the test because I thought it was an interesting topic to explore.
The conventional wisdom is to tee your ball up on a par 3 with your irons. The point of this article is not to dispute that advice because I think it’s sound logic for most of you reading this, but rather to explore an alternative strategy that some players may benefit from.
I conducted this mini poll on Twitter, and it was not a surprise that the overwhelming majority of responses were people who did tee up the ball.
Do you tee up your ball on a par 3?
When I think about improving as a golfer I see an image of two lines, which represent shot dispersion. I believe every golfer should be moving from the image on the left to the image on the right.
Anything you can do to keep that ball closer to your intended target is going to help you lower your scores (and yes hitting the ball farther is part of that).
For years I noticed that when I teed the ball up with my irons my dispersion seemed to increase, but mainly on my poor shots. If I pushed it, pulled it, sliced it, or hooked it…well it seemed to do more of that, and go further to the left or right than normal.
If it was a well-struck shot, then it was heading towards my target no matter what.
Since I am someone who thinks pretty deeply about strategy on the course, I decided to stop teeing the ball up in order to keep my less-than perfect shots closer to the target. Golf is a game of proximity; the closer you are to the hole the better your chances are of scoring better on each hole.
I wanted to find out if there was any truth to this theory as it pertained to my own game (and potentially yours).
So I went out to St. Georges Country Club with my friend and PGA Professional Nick Banks on an abnormally warm and windy winter day. We were treated to 70 degree weather in the middle of February, and it was perfect conditions to try out my “teeing it up or not” theory.
After conducting the test we took the average of 10 shots and compared them, and I found the results to be pretty interesting.
The wind was ripping pretty hard that day, and it was easily about a 1½ – 2 club differential, which meant that any shots I didn’t hit well were going to travel farther off line than in calm conditions.
My shots with the 7-iron off the ground traveled on average 156.8 yards in the air, and about 3.6 yards off the target line to the left with an average spin rate of 6548 rpms. Overall, not bad for the conditions since I typically fly a 7-iron about 170 yards on the golf course.
The teed-up shots went on average 158 yards in the air, 9.7 yards offline to the left, and had an average spin of 6979 rpms.
What was interesting was that I didn’t gain much distance at all, the ball spun a bit more, but most importantly it went 6 yards more to the left than the shots that I hit off the ground.
I was not surprised by the results because it had been a pattern I had noticed on the course.
What did surprise me the most was that I really didn’t gain much distance from the ball being teed up. I only gained 1.2 yards on average, but lost just over 6 yards of accuracy. On a par three that could easily be the difference of hitting the green or not.
For me personally it confirmed my suspicion that choosing to hit the ball off the ground on a par three might be a better decision if I am mostly concerned about accuracy.
Should You Tee Your Irons Up on a Par 3?
I am absolutely not recommending that you stop using tees on a par 3. Now that I’ve gotten that out of the way let me tell you why.
For most golfers I believe that teeing the ball up gives you the best chance of making proper contact with the ball, which is ultimately the most important thing for consistency. Why give up that advantage on a par 3?
What I would tell you is to make sure you find the right tee height for your swing. Some golfers either tee it up way too high or too low. You can figure the right tee height on your own by using a dry-erase marker and experimenting with different tee heights to see where you are making contact on the face of the club.
Had I performed this test with a much wider range of golfers with varying ball striking abilities, I would suspect that lesser-skilled golfers would struggle to produce the distance and accuracy to hit more greens without using a tee.
However, for a more skilled ball striker, I do think these results are interesting. It might warrant some testing on your own to find out if it makes sense to possibly not use a tee in order to gain accuracy. I’m just one player, and this test was hardly scientific, but I’m sure some of you reading this have thought about this before.
Let’s say that course par is 72 and everything is done in regulation with 36 putts, and 36 stokes to reach the greens.
50% from the teeing grounds.
Because most courses non scratch golfers play are usually played from more forward tees to reduce their approach distances to the greens they will not encounter par 3 lengths exceeding 175 yards. This means then that only 14 of the tee shots will be favouring a driver or other fairway metal.
Since hitting irons/hybrids will represent 22 of the 72 strokes played for our par round it does make more sense to be consistently striking the ball off the turf rather than a tee for consistency.
The biggest concern for a golfer is the grass length at the range they normally hit out of. Grass that allows the ball to be puffed up so the club can easily get the ball airborn is a lot of times misleading once the golfer heads to the course.
Once they start to play and the lie is flatter than they practice from it becomes apparent rather quickly that they have developed a habit of sweeping the ball. This obviously leaves the golfer hitting thin hits with their short irons and fat hits with their mid to long irons/hybrids.
This is an area that isn’t covered by teaching professionals. It becomes a difficult cycle to break if one practice with favourable conditions but doesn’t encounter conditions like they practice under out on the course. It was said Tiger Woods was a picker of the ball. He would practice for hours and there would be no evidence he was there afterwards as he picked the ball so cleanly. However once out on the course his swing would steepen because the lie was flatter.
If a handicap golfer doesn’t know what Tiger Woods knew about how the ball lie affects their ball striking from the range to the course they end up frustrated. This is the primary reason struggling golfers prefer to tee the ball while striking an iron. They have not connected the dots between the favourable range grass and the course conditions.
My experience has been to play all my irons/hybrids/and fairway metals from the turf. Although I can hit my driver from the deck it has a large 460 cc head which favours a tee. It spins poorly as it isn’t designed for that situation.
It is important to understand that using a tee is necessary to give a golfer the optimal lie for the club they are hitting not more distance or accuracy even though the lie affects those outcomes. A lot of public courses are not in optimal shape for golfers to play their best especially the teeing grounds. The golfer must know their swing habits (picket/digger) to make the correct decisions when on the tees. Pickers should use a tee when the grass is to short for the clubs leading edge to sweep under the ball and diggers should choose a tee if they are hitting anything with less than 30 degrees of loft but only enough tee height to prevent the leading edge from blading the strike and of course wind conditions should be factored in for club selection and shot shape intention.
Although a tee is a golfers crutch if used intelligently it can also be a saving grace??
I wonder if the results would be more similar given normal wind conditions. The ball was in the air more of the tee so the wind had more time to shift its position. The ball off the tee also had a higher spin rate and a ball with more spin is more effected by the wind.
I completely agree that using a tee should be a strategic decision. Not much turf then use the tee so that you can hit the ball on the sweet spot. Plenty of turf and the ball sitting up then hit from the turf. I like to hit from the turf when possible. I am an amateur golfer but understand that I must make adjustments in situations where the lie is not favorable for a clean shot.
I too have stopped teeing my ball up on Par 3s where I would be using an iron.. I tend to compress my ball against the ground and I don’t know why but whenever I would tee it up it just feels like a miss-hit.. so I’m glad you came up with this article. but I agree with one of the comments on here that I would have liked to see what happened if it was less windy.

While most policies cover regular contingencies—health issues, flight cancellations, baggage delays—you can also buy additional cover to insure against hijack and even a burglary at home while you are away.
Even regular contingencies come with riders. Did you lose cash or jewellery from your check-in baggage? No cover. Were they nicked from your bags in the hotel room? Sorry, you should’ve kept them in the safe. Did you travel against medical advice and end up in the hospital? No claims, please.
Feel safe skydiving knowing you’re covered? Think again. Standard travel insurance policies do not include adventure sports. You will have to buy additional cover, depending on the sport. Even after this, you have to take ample safety precautions to ensure the policy is not void. Ensure no life-threatening ailments, sign up only with certified agencies and so on.
Here’s a sobering thought: injuries related to binge-drinking are excluded. No exceptions.
This is a benefit most people aren’t aware of. If you lose money in transit and want some cash urgently, your insurance company can wire the money out to you. Just ensure your plan has this travel-assistance component.
Not asking for the entire policy document, with cover details, T&C, and inclusions and exclusions (sometimes, agents may be guilty of not sharing the T&C, but insist on the document anyway).
Comparing just prices and not the coverages or deductibles—any basic cover should take care of medical evacuation, medical expenses, trip delay, baggage delay, baggage loss and passport loss.
Taking just the barebones insurance instead of the relevant coverage. Keep in mind the kind of holiday you’re going on and the nature of the place you’re visiting before you seal the deal.
Not declaring your medical history while applying for the policy. Come clean or risk rejection.
Not collecting or keeping bills, receipts, copy of the complaint, etc. handy.
Not informing the insurer immediately about the damage—the sooner you inform the insurer, the sooner they can help with documents, emergency cash, etc.

The overall objective of READ is to implement a Virtual Research Environment where archivists, humanities scholars, computer scientists and volunteers are collaborating with the ultimate goal of boosting research, innovation, development and usage of cutting edge technology for the automated recognition, transcription, indexing and enrichment of handwritten archival documents. This Virtual Research Environment will not be built from the ground up, but will benefit from research, tools, data and resources generated in multiple national and EU funded research and development projects and provide a basis for sustaining the network and the technology in the future. This ICT based e-infrastructure will address the Societal Challenge mentioned in Europe in a Changing World namely the “transmission of European cultural heritage” and the “uses of the past” as one of the core requirements of a reflective society. Based on research and innovation enabled by the READ Virtual Research Environment we will be able to explore and access hundreds of kilometres of archival documents via full-text search and therefore be able to open up one of the last hidden treasures of Europe’s rich cultural hertitage. One of the main ambitions of READ is to revolutionise access to handwritten document collections.
Often handwriting is hard to read for human beings, all the more it is for machines. Handwritten scripts are as individual as their writers. Not only do they vary from one country to another, they are also dependent on the language, the character sets, abbreviations, and writing styles in use during a given time period. The same is true for the layout of archival documents. In READ we will find administrative records from ministries, councils or communes; court decisions and treaties; lists of the names of immigrants and emigrants; personal letters, note books, diaries and postcards; cadastre books and maps; shipping records; and many, many other types. READ will do an automated segmentation and transcription (HTR processing) and it will also be possible to train specific scripts.
The READ Platform will also consist of a website (directly connected with the platform’s central database) which will on the one hand be the main source of information for all users (registration, screencasts, guidelines, support) and on the other hand serve as a digital library application for the collections maintained within READ. Typical interactions, such as full-text searching, Keyword Spotting, or Image Retrieval can be performed via the READ website.

Google is slowly piecing together a strategy for China to ensure that it doesn’t miss out on the growth of technology in the world’s largest country. It’s been months in the making through a series of gradual plays, but further evidence of those plans comes today via a product launch.
There’s been regular media speculation about Google’s desire to return to China which, during its absence, has become the largest single market for smartphone users, and the country with the most app downloads and highest app revenue per year. Mostly the rumors have centered around audacious strategies such as the return of the Google Play Store or the restoration of Google’s Chinese search business, both of which would mean complying with demands from the Chinese government.
It inked a wide-ranging patent deal with Tencent, China’s $500 billion tech giant which operates WeChat and more, and has made strategic investments to back AI startup XtalPi (alongside Tencent), live-streaming platform Chushou, and AI and hardware company Mobvoi. There have been events, too, including AlphaGo’s three-game battle with Chinese grandmaster Ke Jie in Wuzhen, developer conferences in China and the forthcoming first Google Asia Demo Day, which takes places in Shanghai in September.

disney Heroine: In Bongo, the titular oso, oso de falls in amor with Lulubelle, a female oso, oso de from the forest. She forms part of a amor triángulo, triángulo de with another bear, Lumpjaw. She is also instrumental in an aspect of this film which I found rather uncomfortable to watch - the slapping courtship. In Doctor Who there was some minor furore surrounding the slapping instigated por the main characters - the Doctor, Rory and Amy. There were cries of domestic abuse in the way Rory was being slapped and how if the roles were reversed (i.e. Rory slapped Amy) there would be a huge outcry. To be honest, the tone of those scenes never really made me worry about what the slapping was implying about the relationships of the characters - although maybe I should have been. On the other hand, I felt very uncomfortable watching the bears of Bongo slapping each other to mostrar that they fancied them. Maybe it is because I was watching this with my two young children.
In a parallel to the Doctor Who example, it is Lulubelle who first slaps Bongo. Bongo misinterprets the slap as Lulubelle not liking him (understandably) and it isn't till the end of the film that he realises what she actually meant - which leads to a bout of vigorous slapping between the two of them.
In Mickey and the Beanstalk there are two characters who could be considered to be 'heroines'. The first, within the animation, is the magic harp. She sings a song to Mickey allowing him to find the key on the giant to free Donald and Goofy. The segundo is the child actress, Luana Patten. Luana had portrayed Ginny in Song of the South and this film sees her featuring, as herself, in the framing device which introduces Mickey and the Beanstalk. At her birthday party (which only consists of herself, a ventroliquist, Edgar Bergen and two of his puppets!) she is told the story of Mickey and the Beanstalk.
Quite why her birthday party is so poorly attended is never explained.
disney Villain: With two films, there are of course, two villains. The first is Lumpjaw, the large and aggressive fiance of Lulubelle who is spurned when she expressed an interest in the newly-arrived Bongo. Lumpjaw is described as the meanest, toughest oso, oso de in the forest and it seems no one, least of all Lulubelle and Bongo, mourn his death when he falls down a raging waterfall.
Mickey and the Beanstalk's villain is, unsurprisingly, the giant who lives at the parte superior, arriba of the plant. In this version of the tale, he is known as Willie. In a variation on the original tale, Willie has stolen the Golden Harp from the land below causing drought and famine to affect. He is able to perform magic, including transforming himself into different creatures. This ability is akin to that seen in the fairy tale Puss in Boots where an ogre is able to transform itself and is tricked into turning into a ratón which is easily killed por Puss. Mickey's attempt to get the giant to turn into an easily squashable fly is a clear echo of that story.
Whilst Willie is the villain of this story, he has a childlike, jolly aspect to him which has lead to his return appearances eschewing the antagonistic traits in favour of a jovial fellow - most obviously in his appearance as the Ghost of navidad Present in Mickey's navidad Carol.
disney Sidekicks: Perhaps Disney's most famous sidekick, Jiminy Cricket, returns in this film to introduce the two stories.
Within the films themselves there are less obvious fulfillers of this role. Bongo does not really contain any sidekicks. Mickey and the Beanstalk sees Donald pato and Goofy sort of fill this role, although it could also be argued that they are heroes in their own right. That said, they are the ones who are locked up por the giant and need to be freed por Mickey, making them fulfill the oft dado sidekick role of being rescued por the hero.
disney Creatures: In Bongo, we see a large number of other bears living in the forest. At the end of the song 'Say it with a Slap', many of them pair off, so we can assume there are equal numbers of male and female bears. Mickey and the Beanstalk includes the traditional cow that is swopped for magic beans. There is also a gigantic dragonfly (living in the giant's kingdom at the parte superior, arriba of the beanstalk) that attacks Mickey, Goofy and Donald.
disney Magic: Bongo lacks the magical touch associated with disney but Mickey and the Beanstalk involves both the magic of the giant - whose skills include transformation, flying and invisibility. The aforementioned Golden Harp is a magical being - a living musical instrument. It is her canto which brings happiness and prosperity to the land and when she is stolen por the giant, the land falls into ruin. She also has the ability to sing people to sleep.
disney Land: Bongo happens in an unidentified forest in what is, presumably, somewhere in the USA. Mickey and the Beanstalk is set in Happy Valley which is ruled over por queen Minnie and kept happy only por the presence of the Golden Harp - which doesn't say much for the abilities of queen Minnie as a ruler! Happy Valley has echoes of the indistinct European-style settings of many fairy tales.
disney Songs: There are quite a few songs in Fun and Fancy Free. None of the songs made a particular impact on me and, even after listening to the playlist a couple of times, I'd be hard pressed to remember any of the tunes. Quite a few of them: the título song, Too Good to be True and Lazy Countryside are of a similar, 'easy-listening' style to those from Make Mine Music. The songs in Mickey and the Beanstalk are closely tied in with the narrative - Donald and Goofy canto about how hungry they are to the tune of Funiculi, Funicala (you'd know it if tu heard it); and the harp canto about how Mickey can find the key to release his friends.
Most significantly, though, is Jiminy Cricket's opening song - I'm a Happy-Go-Lucky Fellow. This was a song which was originally written for Pinocchio but was cut (along with quite a few other songs). It's a fun little song and does sound like something which would have suited Pinocchio's vibe quite well. I'm glad it saw the light of día in this film.
disney Finale: I'm not quite sure what to make of Fun and Fancy Free. Unlike the other package features of this period, it's only made up of two films which, oddly, makes for a slightly less satisfying collection. Bongo is not a favourite of mine, mainly due to the weird use of slapping as a sign of amor forming its central 'comedy' element. I quite like the idea of a 'circus' animal returning to the wild (hang on a minute, where I have seen that before...) but generally it's not a story I want to return to any time soon. Mickey and the Beanstalk is better and it will be interesting to see what Disney's upcoming film, Gigantic, will do with the tale of Jack and the Beanstalk which is, after all, a classic of fairy tales. I'm not a huge fan of Mickey, but amor a bit of Donald and Goofy and Willie the Giant is a fun villain. It's good to have Jiminy Cricket back even if just as a presenter, but en general, general this isn't a film I think I'll return to all that often. The litmus test of many of these is whether my children ask to rewatch it and Fun and Fancy Free hasn't yet been asked for so I'm not sure it made a huge impression on them.

I use Scotland road as a lower NOx route. and its easier to join than going on the ring road side of Heathfield primary.
Problem arises from vehicles waiting for the Nottingham Rd & ring road junction at the futurist blocking visibility of the junction. Makes it harder to turn and increases the threat.
Suggested solution: Keep clear markings across the junction.
If agreeable will email KM about it.
The city council received a £6.1m grant from the D2N2 LEP to construct 4 radial routes. This is the first, a mixture of a physically segregated and a shared route.
This is about creating a pedestrian/cycle area on Station Street between Carrington Street and Trent Street, and a gyratory along the rest of Station Street (up to London Road).

Last week I had the amazing opportunity to attend the Australian premiere of THRILLER LIVE at QPAC to celebrate the undisputed King of Pop, Michael Jackson. Thriller Live opened in London in 2009 and has now moonwalked it's way over to Australia.
I have been a Michael Jackson fan for years. I remember being made fun of in Year 7 for it but I soldiered on and even performed a solo dance to Blame It On The Boogie in front of my class. Michael Jackson's death not only brought myself to tears but also his fans across the world. Although I never had the chance to experience a Michael Jackson concert in all it's natural, original glory, this is the closest I will come to seeing the real thing.
For over two hours, the audience listened to the songs that introduced the world to him. The night started off with a refresher from his younger days. Songs included: I Want You Back, Blame It On The Boogie and Can You Feel It. The night got better as some of my personal favourites were performed: Billie Jean, Beat It, Man In The Mirror, Bad, Black Or White, Smooth Criminal and of course, Thriller (So, basically everything).
Not only was I blown away by the vocals (I'm looking at you, Prinnie Stevens), I was absolutely in awe of the dancing. It continued to blow me away as the night progressed. The two performances I can't get out of my head were Smooth Criminal and Billie Jean. The choreography was everything that I would expect Michael Jackson to do. I felt like I was watching him dance on stage. I applaud the dancers who are extremely talented and brought this to life with such precision.
What I also loved about the show was the performers inviting the audience to join in at multiple occasions. We got to stand up, join in on the dancing and even help the singers by yelling out the words to the songs. I know I wasn't the only one with the biggest smile on my face bopping to Michael Jackson's greatest hits. I took my Mum who was clapping along, dancing in her seat and who enjoyed it as much as I did. I am extremely jealous she grew up while these songs were being introduced to the world.
It was such a wonderful night and I'm so happy I was able to go along. I highly recommend you book your tickets to THRILLER LIVE! It will be running at QPAC until January 25th. It is such a great concert and you shouldn't miss out! It was all my Mum and I were able to talk about afterwards.
Below I have some imagery provided for use and what I wore.

It's hard not to be! After eyeing off some bikinis for a while, I decided to get some prior to my trip to Europe.
I ended up purchasing their 'California Coral' style. I have an ongoing obsession with wearing pink and this was a more colourful addition to the monochromatic swimwear I had already packed in my suitcase.
This particular style from Triangl has adjustable back and neck ties and comes with a boyleg bottom. They're not transparent (thank heavens!) and are made from neoprene.
These bikinis are a perfect little addition to your swimwear collection. I have quite the wishlist for more Triangl!

Latvia’s defense minister said on Friday Russia was trying to stir unrest in the Baltic state by using “specially-trained, professional provocateurs” in the wake of its intervention in Ukraine.
The Baltic countries Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, now NATO and EU member states, were once part of the Soviet Union and have substantial Russian-speaking minorities, like Ukraine.
“There are risks that Russia might try to destabilize the situation in the region,” Raimonds Vejonis, Latvia’s defense minister, told Reuters in an interview.
“We see it very clearly in Ukraine’s case, where they have acted and are still trying to escalate the situation in different ways,” the minister added.
As an example, he mentioned comments by Aleksandr Gaponenko, an activist for non-citizens’ rights in Latvia, to Norwegian television that Latvia’s government intended “to suppress protests with the power of army”.
Around 26 percent of Latvia’s 2 million people are ethnic Russians. Many do not have Latvian citizenship and so cannot vote or apply for certain public-sector jobs. Moscow has long complained about the rights of ethnic Russians in the Baltics.
“There are no direct military threats to Latvia and the Baltic region, but there is increased activity of Russia’s Armed Forces near the border,” Vejonis said.

You Are Here: Home > Why Buy Used?
You don’t have to purchase a brand new vehicle for it to be of exceptional condition and quality. Besides saving money, there are a number of great advantages to buying a pre-owned car. At our Volkswagen dealer near New Haven, we understand the hesitancy some customers might have to purchase a used vehicle. To help you with your decision, we’ve compiled five reasons why you should buy your next car used.
It’s no surprise that used vehicles cost a lot less than new ones. When you purchase a used car, you’ll be saving thousands of dollars since new vehicles depreciate fast. Besides depreciation, you’ll also pay less sales tax and car insurance. In many states, it’s cheaper to register a used car than it is for a new car.
Every person has different tastes and preferences when it comes to cars. If your dream model isn’t made anymore, the used car market has you covered. When you visit a car dealership, chances are it will have a wide variety of used vehicles for sale of different makes, models, and years. Check out our used cars for sale, and you’ll find that we carry more than Volkswagen models on our lot!
Most car dealerships offer certified pre-owned vehicles that are high quality and low mileage. CPO programs vary depending on the manufacturer, with a significant difference between manufacturer certified and dealership certified. Manufacturer certified vehicles come with a warranty, and often include added perks such as free roadside assistance or a free loaner car when needed.
With the help of vehicle history reports like Carfax and AutoCheck, it’s become a lot easier to obtain important information on a used car. Having easy access to a pre-owned vehicle’s history will give you greater peace of mind when buying one.
As time progresses, automakers are finding more ways to construct reliable vehicles that’ll keep on cruising for miles and miles. When you purchase a car, you’ll be able to count on it to last roughly 200,000 miles or more when it’s properly taken care of.
When it comes time to purchase your used vehicle, make your way over to our Volkswagen dealership! Our knowledgeable sales team will be more than happy to assist you.
If you have any questions or comments for our New Haven area VW dealer, don’t hesitate to contact us at (855) 250-6818.

Investigators in this theme are using cell biological and other methods to investigate the mechanisms that regulate cell proliferation and differentiation. This general approach is applied to understanding basic cell physiology, cancer biology, developmental biology and the pathogenesis of infectious diseases.
There are a number of areas of particular research strengths within the Research Theme. These include: (i) hormonal control of cell function, including the role of hormones in promoting the growth of breast and prostate cancers, (ii) the regulation of gene expression and its importance in determining embryonic development, tumour progression and tissue differentiation, (iii) intracellular signalling systems, and (iv) the diagnosis and treatment of malignancies. There is considerable interaction between individual laboratories in those areas. For example, Murphy and O'Neill collaborate on increasing fertility. The laboratories of Cook and Day recently have been co-localised so as to further their joint work on the roles of ion channels in epithelia and in mammalian development.
Over the next triennium it is planned to increase interactions of all the members of this Research Theme. In particular, closer links between the basic and clinical leukaemia and cancer researchers are proposed. Coordinated use of existing technologies and major equipment facilities will underpin greatly improved translational research outputs. The special expertise of the Cook laboratory in signal transduction and siRNA technology will be disseminated within the Research Theme during the next three years, initially through collaborations with Grau and Hunt.
There are many existing and potential interactions between the members of the Cancer, Cell Biology and Development Theme and the other Research Themes. The groups studying hormonal regulation of cell function, for example, share many common interests and techniques with Dr Stephen Twigg, who is interested in the actions of insulin and Nick Hunt who is interested in the actions of cytokines. Similarly, Cook's work on the role of ion channels in cell function and on intracellular signalling mechanisms has already led to collaborative studies with Hunt and Grau on the pathogenesis of cerebral malaria and of the pulmonary oedema observed in malaria. This activity will be expanded during the triennium through an NHMRC Program Grant application in collaboration with Professor Warwick Britton of the Centenary Institute; tuberculosis, malaria and respiratory viruses will be the core of that collaboration.
Stem cell biology is an area that will be developed within the "Organ & tissue replacement" Research Theme over the triennium, linked with existing interests in the "Cancer, cell biology & development" Research Theme.
Basic Sciences: To develop a detailed understanding of (i) the causation, initiating factors and mechanisms of malignant transformation, (ii) control of development and reproduction, and (iii) epithelial function in health and disease.
Innovation: To facilitate invention of innovative research techniques by scientifically "cross-cultural" collaboration, enabled by (1) links generated within the Research Theme and (2) links generated with members of other Research Themes.
Translation: To enable (1) an informed approach to the clinical abrogation, treatment or palliation of cancer and some infectious diseases, (2) new diagnostic methods for earlier reliable detection of disease and its associated pathology, (3) new methods of ensuring normal, uncomplicated reproduction, based on our findings in this Research Theme.

Anyone who has been to the Beaty Biodiversity Museum on UBC’s Vancouver campus will have had a close-up encounter with the 26-metre skeleton of a blue whale suspended above the entrance, but how many can claim they’ve been fully immersed in the cetacean’s underwater world — a world where the largest mammal on Earth (this time fully-fleshed) swoops down beside them and blinks?
Seeing a blue whale materialize in front of their eyes is exactly the experience that visitors to UBC’s Emerging Media Lab can expect — once they’ve donned virtual reality goggles and headphones, that is. They can also bat asteroids out of the way to get a better view of the moon, or walk around a Van Gogh painting and peer out a post-impressionist window at the starry night sky. The Emerging Media Lab is a campus-wide collaboration that is making the latest and greatest gadgets accessible to UBC students, staff and the public, all with the goal of exploring how new technologies might be used to enhance teaching and learning.
Opportunities to engage with virtual reality (VR) are becoming increasingly common. The New York Times, for example, mailed out over a million $20 Google Cardboard headsets, so their subscribers, armed with nothing more than a smart phone, can experience immersive stories. One such story — “The Fight for Falluja” — invited them to enter Iraq much like an embedded journalist, via a 360-degree video. In a similar vein, Google Expeditions distributed kits, including headsets and phones, to classrooms around the world, allowing students to virtually visit places like Mars or Machu Picchu.
But these video-based experiences, although stimulating, are mere shadows of the higher-end immersions, which enable users to interact with, move through and make choices to change the reality they see, says Dr. Ray Hsu, one of two faculty-in-residence at the Emerging Media Lab. These deeper-level experiences, he explains, have yet to hit the mainstream, and part of the reason is cost. Headsets like Oculus Rift and Microsoft’s new HoloLens cost hundreds of dollars and must be connected to fast and expensive processors in order to provide the seamless streaming images that give users the impression of being in a whole new world.
Still, Hsu, a professor in the Social Justice Institute, can’t help but see the potential for immersive technology in education, and he’s determined to get more people at UBC involved in this growing field. What excites him most about VR is the prospect of “getting out” of the classroom. With headsets on, he says, “you are not tied to a particular location. You are separated from the entire world around you.” And you can also go to places you couldn’t visit in the real world. This level of immersion can help students understand things that already exist, such as the circulatory system (there’s an app where you can travel like a blood cell through the body), but they can also examine things that have yet to come, such as proposed environmental designs to reclaim polluted industrial sites.
Wagner’s striking innovation was to turn down the audience lights for the first time, thus plunging opera-goers into an experience focused solely on the brightly lit stage. “We are once again on the verge of a new kind of immersion,” Hsu says.
For Hsu, immersive technologies are akin to opera. He quotes mid-19th century composer Richard Wagner, who envisioned a total work of art, a genre that incorporated “music, theatre, dance, visual art, poetry, everything — into one unified form.” Wagner’s striking innovation was to turn down the audience lights for the first time, thus plunging opera-goers into an experience focused solely on the brightly lit stage.
“We are once again on the verge of a new kind of immersion,” Hsu says.
To help people envision what’s possible, Hsu has given more than 200 demonstrations to students and staff at the Emerging Media Lab, a collaboration between UBC Information Technology and the Centre for Teaching and Learning. This multi-location facility means users can access new technologies at various sites across UBC’s Point Grey campus, including the Faculty of Education.
Hsu, an award-winning poet with a PhD in English Literary Studies from the University of Wisconsin–Madison, wasn’t always obsessed with the high-tech world. He first came to UBC as a teaching fellow in the Creative Writing department in 2008. A few years later, he left teaching to focus on a variety of creative pursuits. During that time, he developed an online marketplace for writers, and The Globe and Mail named him “one of Vancouver’s most promising young entrepreneurs.” Although his venture didn’t pan out, the experience gave Hsu a taste of Vancouver’s thriving tech start-up scene. He soon discovered that educators and students were a hugely-coveted audience, but no one had hit upon education’s “killer app.” And when he looked around at the programmers, entrepreneurs and creative types in the high-tech world, he realized he was the only educator in the room.

In the end, he joined forces with Saeed Dyanatkar, executive producer at UBC Studios and the Emerging Media Lab, to found the Virtual Reality/Augmented Reality User Group. His goal was to create a community where colleagues and students can not only come together and discuss ongoing projects, but also keep abreast of the trends.
The geography department had been searching for a way to deal with an increasing number of students and a decreasing budget for field trips, says Professor Loch Brown. Their goal was to find a way to use VR and AR to play with time, space and scale — in effect, he says, “to overcome the tyranny of geography.” For example, he and his colleagues are collecting 360-degree photographic and video data on street corners, so that in 10 or 15 years students will be able to travel back in time to see how gentrification has affected neighbourhoods such as Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside. Another initiative will allow students wearing headsets to virtually leap 200 metres into the air for a bird’s eye view of a bog on the landscape, and then zoom back down to a microscopic level to understand the cell system in sphagnum moss.
Creative Writing professor Jennifer Moss has also become involved. She teaches writing for new media and has her students write scripts for virtual reality concepts. “Every genre has its tricks,” she says, “so you have to know what ones will work. Especially in an environment where you can’t control the gaze or movement of your audience.” A long-time radio documentary producer, who has spent time working with the National Film Board on new media and VR projects, Moss would love to see more collaboration between the arts and sciences in these types of projects.
In collaboration with the student-led AMS Game Development Association (AGDA), Chen created a 360-degree tour through Vancouver’s modern-day Chinatown. Through the app, users virtually experience places like the Sun Yat-Sen garden while learning about the history and evolving public perception of the neighbourhood.
All the high-tech gear like HTC Vive, Google Daydream, Oculus Rift and Microsoft HoloLens is at their fingertips, along with game-development software and high-speed computers, giving teams access to equipment they would not have been able to purchase on their own.
Chen became so entranced by the technology that she went on to create a separate AGDA VR arm for other keeners. Soon there was so much interest from students and faculty that she wound up with a summer work/learn position at the Emerging Media Lab. Under the supervision of Dyanatkar, she coordinates the space and technology for groups of students, staff and faculty who want to collaborate and experiment with immersive technologies. All the high-tech gear like HTC Vive, Google Daydream, Oculus Rift and Microsoft HoloLens is at their fingertips, along with game-development software and high-speed computers, giving teams access to equipment they would not have been able to purchase on their own.
“The lab is where groups can explore, collaborate and develop ideas,” says Dyanatkar. They will be supported through their incubation process, then Emerging Media Lab staff will record findings, noting what succeeded and what could be done differently, so that other departments can learn and improve on techniques. “The group always has permission to fail,” he says.
Loch Brown cites the Emerging Media Lab’s invaluable role in the VR projects he’s been working on, and points to the many students who have led the way in troubleshooting technological issues or learning new programs. “There is a strong cohort of undergraduate students who are hungry to work on these types of projects,” he says “and there is growing faculty interest too.” For his part, Brown is keen to ensure the work the geography department does is open source and shared with the wider community, not only for the sake of learning, but to help position UBC as a leader in the emerging technology field.
Hsu is happy to see the variety of work that is taking shape on campus. For him it adds to the evolving conversation about using immersive technologies in education. “Universities are meant to be hotspots for innovation,” he says, but in every institution, some are resistant to change. “When people are concerned about technology disrupting things, it is usually coming out of fear — fear that VR is going to replace teachers, for example,” he says. But it is more helpful to figure out how VR can positively affect learning outcomes, both within and outside of the traditional classroom. And in that realm, according to Hsu, the only limit is our collective imagination.
It is satisfying and exciting to see technology having the potential of expanding our understanding of scientific and social issues. As we eliminate opportunities for the poor and underpriviledged to have first hand experiences with animals in controlled environments such as Stanley Park, having VR in classrooms for them would be the next best thing. And who knows, it may be the catalyst for some of these underpriviledged to aspire to higher education.
Having the very brief but impactful experience with virtual reality in Bjorks collaborated showing with MOMA I’m very excited, impressed, and awed at the possibilities.
That being said I also know that with all the bright minds/technology available I’d rather it be directed at how we are going to help educate people towards innovative ways to work united in saving humanity on a dying planet. How can we all work together in ” like-minded” actions and use this to reach all who want to make the differences happen before we can’t. Otherwise there will be tons of tech not able to access stored away invisible to the reality around us as we desperately try to survive.

Waltham Forest borough council commissioned these mosaics to mark the centenary of Alfred Hitchcock’s birth. The director was born in Leytonstone in 1899; each design commemorates a memorable moment from his cinematic career.
They were created by the Greenwich Mural Workshop and unveiled in 2001.
Nobody was paying them any notice while I was there. In fact, me taking photographs of the mosaics was attracting more attention than the mosaics themselves. It’s a shame when something so intriguing becomes so familiar as to be almost invisible.
There are 17 in total, 14 showing scenes from films, three symbolising moments in Hitchcock’s career. If you’re not rushing to or from a train at Leytonstone, all of the designs are worth close inspection. Or for that matter, any sort of inspection at all.

Back to one of my classic looks for my latest outfit post, featuring a bomber jacket, skinny jeans and sneakers! It is a relatively simple ensemble, yet one that I return to on a regular basis.
Bomber Jackets are like old friends, since the inception of my blog, I have worn this style of coat in a wide variety of different outfits. My top choice from my collection was my beloved Topshop MA1 Green Bomber Jacket, which I wore numerous times throughout the last year. Unfortunately, the last time I wore it, I came to the conclusion that it no longer fits me anymore. The jacket now looks quite unflattering, too tight in the shoulders and arms, which in turn gives the unpleasant side effect of being very short in length!
I began the hunt to find a suitable replacement, I finally decided on the Alpha Industries Bomber Jacket MA-1 VF59 in Replica Grey. I’m very happy with the fit, especially as it is a men’s cut in a size medium. Look out for my review in the near future!
I paired my new acquisition with my GRLFRND Distressed Black Skinny Jeans and my gleaming white Saint Laurent Classics Sneakers. For accessories, I picked out my New Era Black Baseball Cap and Omega Aqua Terra Seamaster Watch.
Please let me know in the comments what you think of my latest outfit!
