Kerry Washington joined her “Scandal” co-stars for a PaleyFest session feting the ABC’s nighttime soap over the weekend. See pics of Kerry and the cast inside….
“Scandal” star Kerry Washington headed over to the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood this weekend where she participated in The Paley Center For Media’s 32nd Annual PALEYFEST LA.
Paleyfest, which allows fans to get up-close and personal with their favorite stars and tv characters through interactive panels and discussions, dedicated an entire session to Kerry’s “Scandal” and her co-stars.
Kerry wore a Mary Katrantzou Pre-Fall 2015 sleeveless blouse and an abstract jacquard skirt. She set off the outfit with a bold pop of color via yellow ‘Pigalles’.
We spotted Kerry posing with co-star Katie Lowes.
The panel was hosted by latenight host Jimmy Kimmel.
All the “Gladiators” were there, including the President and First Lady.
Fans were able to chat with the entire cast including Bellamy Young, Katie Lowes, Guillermo Diaz, Joshua Malina , Scott Foley, Darby Stanchfield and Jeff Perry.
Understandably, the only person missing was show creator Shonda Rhimes. Where was Shonda? Jimmy quipped Shonda was a no-show “because she’s writing 12 shows.”
On social media…
Kerry and Joshua “David Rosen” Molina were spotted having a little fun backstage.
Kerry and Darby “Abby Whelan” Stanchfield look like they’re just as close off-camera and they are on-screen.

J: What are the key variables that could either mitigate or worsen the human toll in different collapse scenarios?
AI: The human toll in different collapse scenarios can be influenced by a multitude of variables, each with the potential to either mitigate or exacerbate the situation. Here are some key factors:
Speed of Collapse: A rapid collapse would likely result in higher mortality due to the inability of systems and individuals to adapt quickly.
Global Cooperation: The level of international cooperation could significantly influence outcomes. Lack of cooperation could exacerbate problems.
Preparedness: Regions that are better prepared for emergencies, with stockpiles of food, medicine, and other essentials, may experience lower mortality rates.
Social Cohesion: Societies with higher levels of trust and social cohesion may be better able to organize in the face of collapse, potentially reducing mortality.
Technological Solutions: The availability of technological solutions to some of the problems leading to collapse could also influence mortality rates.
Preparedness and Resilience: Communities that have prepared for various types of disasters will be more resilient.
Robust Healthcare Systems: A well-funded and well-organized healthcare system can significantly reduce mortality rates during crises.
Effective Governance: Strong institutions can provide the necessary framework for effective disaster response.
Social Cohesion: Communities with strong social bonds are better at self-organizing in times of crisis, which can reduce mortality.
Technological Solutions: Innovations in technology can provide new ways to address challenges, from water purification to sustainable agriculture.
Global Cooperation: International aid and expertise can be invaluable in mitigating the effects of collapse.
Timely Information: Accurate and timely information can help people make better decisions during a crisis.
Resource Availability: Sufficient stockpiles of essential resources like food, water, and medicine can mitigate short-term effects.
Geographical Factors: Some areas may be naturally less susceptible to certain types of disasters.
Cultural Factors: Societies with traditions of mutual aid and community support may fare better.
Social Fragmentation: Societies that are deeply divided may find it difficult to cooperate in times of crisis, leading to increased mortality.
Weak Institutions: Poor governance can exacerbate crises, leading to higher mortality rates.
Economic Inequality: In societies with significant economic disparities, the poor are often hit hardest in times of crisis.
Environmental Degradation: Existing environmental issues can be exacerbated by collapse, leading to more severe outcomes.
Global Interconnectedness: While interconnectedness can be beneficial, it can also lead to rapid spread of problems.
Lack of Preparedness: Lack of planning and readiness can severely hamper crisis response efforts.
Misinformation: The spread of false information can lead to poor decision-making and increased mortality.
Resource Scarcity: Competition for dwindling resources can lead to conflict and increased mortality.
Healthcare System Overload: In a severe crisis, healthcare systems can be overwhelmed, leading to preventable deaths.
Psychological Factors: Widespread panic or apathy can lead to poor decision-making and increased mortality.
Understanding these variables can help in the development of strategies aimed at reducing the human toll in the event of societal collapse.
Given the high stakes, the focus should ideally be on prevention and preparedness to mitigate these risks rather than contemplating the grim possibilities of their outcomes.

Megyn Kelly pulled out video of President Obama admitting he wanted all the troops out of Iraq, and Jen Psaki couldn’t lie her way out:
I love it when she said, “Well, Megyn, the facts blah, blah, blah…”
The only bit of truth in that sentence is “Megyn.”
Honesty is not the default setting for anyone in the Obama administration. They made this mess. We need to make sure they own it.

This was originally about the perils of prequels, then I thought about it- surprise!- and realized that many of the struggles writers face in creating prequels also apply to adapting a known work into a different media.
So this is going to bounce around between books, movies, and TV a bit, and I might even treat you to a mild rant, because some of this stuff is elementary, and if I know how to handle Problem X, then a highly paid pro should definitely know how to do it.
The main problem with taking a known IP and doing anything with it is that the audience comes into it with expectations, and they can get really annoyed if you subvert those expectations. Do not meddle with geeks, for they are neither subtle, nor quick to anger, but they are persistent as hell and will protect their fandoms like a cornered cat.
The audience already knows what’s going to happen- or they think they know. They know who’s going to live or die, get married, have a kid, etc. When you’re doing a prequel, all the characters have to survive long enough to get to the main story (or long enough to have descendants who’ll be in the main story, depending on the time scale). If you’re doing a straight-up adaptation and deviate too far from canon, the fans will crucify you. Twenty years later, people are still salty about Peter Jackson’s decision to leave Tom Bombadil out of The Fellowship of the Ring, or the Scouring of the Shire from Return of the King.
Adapting to a visual medium has an additional related pitfall; the fans already have an image of the characters and setting in their head, and the inevitable deviation from that winds people up. Witness the recent kerfuffles over swapping out red-headed white actors for black ones- I’m thinking of the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid, though I’m sure there are others- and when the producers of House of the Dragon decided to make the Valyrians black (at least they’re being visually consistent; Rings of Power isn’t, and it’s rather jarring).
Sometimes image-altering is necessary for storytelling in a visual format, because the characters have to be visually differentiable. Doing it just for the laughs- or worse, for political or activist reasons- won’t win you many friends among the audience.
And now that we’re in the internet age, readers and viewers don’t even have to have read or watched the source material to spoil the ending. That’s how House of the Dragon lost me. I went looking for spoilers and realized that most of the characters were psychopathic murderers who came to sticky ends, usually at the hands of other psychopathic murderers. The guy who ends up winning is still a baby; all the adults have to die first. The one truly good character just died, and it was the first time I came away from interacting with the show not thinking I wanted to wash my hands. But it’s hard to get invested in the struggles of people you know are going to die horribly in just a few episodes.
It’s almost as hard to get invested when you know the character’s going to succeed. Feel-good stories can get away with it, and in most romances, the ending is obvious (of course the two main characters are going to get together). But there’s a distinct lack of urgency and tension when you know what’s going to happen, and that doesn’t work for every genre.
Rings of Power has one way of getting out of the ‘can’t kill that one’ dilemma; Elves can be reincarnated. It’s rare for them to return to Middle-Earth afterward, but the precedent exists. Frankly, that’s what they should have done with Galadriel after she was caught in an explosion in a recent episode. Death and reincarnation might have knocked her arrogant butt off her pedestal, and sent her down a path that logically leads to her becoming the wise leader she is in later stories. It would also help set her up with the correct love interest. Apparently, the writers have something else in mind, because that’s not what happened. But reincarnation or some other form of ‘they’re not really dead’ is a way to have your cake and eat it, too.
On the other hand, you have to get rid of characters who are supposed to be dead. House of the Dragon carefully didn’t kill Laenor, even though he died in the source material. This might cause problems. Since he owns a dragon, he can’t exactly hide anonymously; the idea that he could is kind of world-breaking. And since a dead person’s dragon usually gets passed to someone else, and this guy is still very much alive, there’s going to be a character who’s supposed to have that dragon, and doesn’t. I have no idea how the writers are going to handle that.
Your audience is far more likely to forgive deviations from canon if there’s a good, storytelling-related reason for it. Eliminating Tom Bombadil helped to keep the pacing brisk in Fellowship of the Ring; there was a distinct possibility that including that section would make the story drag. Altering a character’s appearance makes it easier to follow the story without confusing Person A for B, and is good for indicating parentage when you’re following a family through the story.
But if modern entertainment is any indication, adaptations and prequels are hard to get right, and easy to get wrong. Of course, no matter what you do, you’re going to annoy some people, but the makers of popular entertainment seem to be shooting themselves in the foot at every turn.
So why do it? Why adapt a known IP at all?
Money, dear boy.
It used to be about love for the source material, and getting the opportunity to see the same story and characters in a different light. Nowadays, there’s still some of that, but it’s more about tapping into audience nostalgia, courting controversy, and of course, making money.
I’m not going to stomp on anyone for making a buck; money is a large part of how we show our approval of a thing; we’re saying, ‘I value Entertainment Item X enough to trade a few hours of my life for it, both in time spent watching or reading it, and in the money I earned from working.’ Entirely reasonable.
But I think there’s room for new stories, too, and the pitfalls of making them are more manageable.
So I’m going to put my butt in the chair, fingers on the keyboard, and write a few new stories.


BAKU, Azerbaijan, May 17. Iranian 'Ababil 2' UAV plant was inaugurated in Tajikistan, Dushanbe, on May 17, 2022, Trend reports citing IRNA.
The opening ceremony was attended by the Chief of General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Islamic Republic of Iran Mohammad Hossein Bagheri and General Sherali Mirzo, Minister of Defense of Tajikistan.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, Bagheri said that Iran has made great strides in all military and defense areas, especially in the production of unmanned aerial vehicles by using domestic potential.
According to Bagheri, in addition to meeting the country's needs, Iran is able to export military equipment to friendly and allied countries to enhance lasting peace and security.
He also added that the opening of the 'Ababil 2' plant will mark a turning point in military cooperation between the two countries.
“In the future, we will witness a further increase in military and defense cooperation between the two countries,” Bagheri noted.
Iran's 'Ababil 2' combat UAV is capable of flying within a radius of 100 km and can fly for 75-120 minutes. The drone can control the battlefield, control heavy artillery attacks and carry out attack operations.

A traditional waka has been disallowed from taking part in the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee river pageant for fear it may capsize or lose control in strong currents, news outlets are reporting in London.
The waka, made by carving out a native tree, was to be used to represent New Zealand in the June 3 pageant, which will see more than 1000 craft traverse the River Thames, watched by a global crowd estimated to be in the millions.
With regard to the Maori vessel, the limitations of the tidal river environment, the higher risk of capsize or foundering and, therefore, the scale of the safety resources that would be needed to rescue the considerable crew of this vessel in the event of an emergency, meant that she was not selected,” a pageant spokeswoman told British newspaper The Sunday Times.
Chris Reynolds, a member of the Ngati Ranana (London Maori Roopu) who was part of a crew that paddled the waka on the Thames in 2011, said:
It is a real shame that it hasn’t been accepted and I’m really not sure why it has been turned down.
“The Thames can be choppy but it was fine last year. Dragon boats take their design from the waka and they will be allowed in the pageant, so it doesn’t make any sense to me.”
Pageant organisers hope each Commonwealth nation will be represented in the pageant, with Australia due to contribute surf lifesaving boats.
Despite the exclusion of the waka, New Zealand will still be represented in the pageant by a whaler boat and clinker vessel, along with a flag-carrying craft, said organisers.

As the proxy season winds down, majority voting was very clearly one of the hottest issues.
According to Claudia Allen of law firm Neal, Gerber & Eisenberg, who updated a study she first published in February, at least 20 majority-vote proposals passed during the 2006 proxy season, 16 of them at companies that did not have a majority-vote policy in place.
Majority voting, as you would expect, is a standard under which board directors must get a majority of votes cast by shareholders in order to win or retain their seats. Although seemingly self-evident, this method of conducting board elections contrasts with the plurality standard still adhered to by most U.S. public companies.
Under the plurality model, directors who receive the most “for” votes are elected; there is no “against” option, and votes that are actively “withheld” or simply not cast are disregarded in the tally. Thus, in theory, a director nominee could be elected to the board with a single affirmative vote, even though all the other votes were withheld. “In an uncontested election,” said Allen, “if you were slated, you were elected.”
She also observed that of the 179 companies listed in the study, fully 135 adopted a majority-voting policy rather than a bylaw or charter provision. In other words, she elaborated, more than three quarters of the companies “retained a plurality election standard, but added a discretionary policy addressing the status of director nominees who fail to receive support from a majority of votes cast.” Just 31 of these companies amended their bylaws; 13 adopted both a policy and either a bylaw or a charter provision.
Allen did note, however, that since Intel adopted a majority-vote bylaw in January, at least 40 companies have adopted a similar model.
A key to the Intel model is its director resignation policy. An incumbent director who fails to receive a majority of votes cast must submit his or her resignation to the board; the corporate-governance and nominating committee then recommends whether to accept it, and the full board has 90 days to decide.

Launceston TAS 7250
The Launceston Town Mission was established in 1854 by way of a public meeting called by a few who believed that, “a large number of inhabitants of this town are living in neglect of religious ordinances and considered that this fact was a loud call for additional exertions on the part of the Christian public; “that an attempt should therefore be made to establish an institution similar to the London City Mission”.
The Mission has gone on from that day to become a well-known and respected organisation of the city and has extended its work to include many areas where its people live out the Mission’s motto of, “caring and sharing in Jesus’ name”.
The Mission’s work now extends along the North West Coast with supported accommodation, sobering up and time out facilities along with outreach work providing food and friendship to those who need it most.
The City Mission now employs over 400 people, paid and voluntary, to assist in carrying out the Mission.

The confusing aspects of being full of colour and being possibly colour blind!
1 creative person, slightly matured
2 tablespoons aptitude
1 piece of aesthetic flavouring
6lbs hard work and sweat
4 ideas more than most
salt of the earth to taste

Sean Rowe launched his first official studio album for Anti- Records Saturday night with a raucous show at Valentine’s that proved just why he’s been getting so much national press attention.
Of course, the Wynantskill singer, songwriter and naturalist has nothing to prove to Capital Region audiences at this point. Music fans in the area have long known about his rich baritone, his muscular guitar playing, his ability to both haunt you with a quiet, contemplative melody and rock your socks off. His years of grueling, four-hour gigs at clubs in the area have paid off, first with his Anti- signing in 2010, international touring, and interviews and coverage in outlets such as National Public Radio in the leadup to the release of “The Salesman and the Shark.”
But in case anyone needed a refresher on Rowe’s talents, he delivered full force this night with help from fellow local favorites Railbird, giving it his all for a scant 12-song set that got a large crowd stomping their feet and singing along. With a set that drew heavily from “The Salesman and the Shark,” but also saved plenty of room for older songs, covers and even unreleased material, Rowe left only one thing to complain about — it was too short.
Armed with a taped-up acoustic guitar and decked out in his trusty fedora and suspenders, Rowe sauntered onstage shortly after 10 p.m. to thunderous applause, launching into the grooving new song “Flying,” the second track from the album. With Railbird singer and Saratoga Springs native Sarah Pedinotti providing backing vocals, and Chris Kyle and Chris Carey bashing away on electric guitar and drum kit, respectively, the song soared to energetic heights only hinted at on the studio version.
Things only got better on the twisting “Joe’s Cult,” a bouncing, off-kilter melody well-suited to Rowe’s deep vocal register, and “Old Shoes,” another showcase for Rowe and Pedinotti’s winding harmonies. Then, for variety, Rowe went back to “Magic,” originally released on Collar City records in 2009 and reissued by Anti- in 2011. Both “The Walker” and “Old Black Dodge” sounded rejuvenated delivered by the Railbird crew, but also showcased just how much Rowe has grown as a writer and performer when put up against the new songs.
Rowe’s odes to family and friends proved to be some of the most affecting moments of the show — the lilting “Thunderbird” featured mournful slide playing from Kyle, while “Signs,” written for Rowe’s father, brought things down to a whispering duet between Rowe and Kyle. Later on, during the encore, Rowe performed the yet-to-be-recorded “Leave Something Behind,” a gentle ode to his 9-month-old son that definitely needs to be recorded sometime soon.
His cover choices for the evening were revealing, and on point — an acoustic guitar and drums only version of Tom Waits’ “Jesus Gonna Be Here” sounded like it was made for Rowe to sing, and a full band rip on Leonard Cohen’s “Bird on a Wire” managed to find new angles in the familiar song. “Downwind” closed the main set on a rollicking note — the song seems destined to be a set closer for Rowe for a long time.
The five-piece Railbird — including second guitarist Xander Naylor and bassist Derek Leslie — opened with a set of their own that blurred the lines between indie pop and experimental jazz. Pedinotti’s vocals soared above the slightly queasy atmospheric noise on songs such as set opener “Hollywood” and the insistently chugging “No One.” The best moment of their set also involved Rowe, who reprised his studio vocals on “Jump Ship” for the live version.

|This adventure really began in 1998
when Marcia and I took our first visit to
. We did not see enough in our 5 days there to satisfy
us soooooo we paid another visit to one of our favorite places.
For those of you who do not know about this
of our neighbor to the north let me show you by
where it is. I used a
"Doers and Dreamers Guide"
for N.S. to plan and book our trip. Below are pictures
and narratives of the places we visited. The background photo
is wild Lupins growing in Hall's Harbor. If you enjoy this then
perhaps you will visit or join us on our next adventure.
Links to the various location web sites are provided
for your enjoyment. Thanks from Buzz and Marcia
|Our first night was spent in the tiny
village of Peggy's Cove.
The lighthouse behind Marcia is in the right background
of the picture on the right, really it is there. Very foggy
that morning. The lighthouse is the village post office. Peggy's
Cove is a beautiful place and all visitors to N.S. need to stop by
and stand on the rocks by the ocean.
, a beautiful coastal town, was our next stop. The
east entrance by the bay is highlighted by the three churches on the
bay. We spent several hours there, then continued across the western
end of the province to Annapolis
. This village is one of, if not the oldest town
in Canada. The oldest wooden house and the oldest street are
to be found there. The photo on the right is a statue in the
Anne National Site
. The Annapolis River runs along side.
|In Annapolis Royal we stayed at the
, our room occupied a portion of the third floor,
and was a real treat. The owners were most gracious and if
you go there please drop by or better, stay with them. A small
antique shop named David's was a treat. The owner can be seen
in the photo on the right. It is a must to see while you are
|We agreed that the best dinner in
N.S. was in Annapolis Royal at the
Garrison House Inn
If you travel to this lovely village, dining there is a must.
A.R. features beautiful
and has a tidal power station which harnesses the tidal power of the Annapolis
River. Make sure to see these. The "Habitation" is also a must see.
|We agreed that the best dinner in N.S.
was in Annapolis Royal at the
Garrison House Inn
. If you travel to this lovely village, dining there is
|Day 3 saw us travel through the Annapolis
Valley to Kentville
with side trips to the coast road and to
(left). The Bay
is noted for its tides which are at times as much as 50 ft difference
between high and low. Several hours later there was no water in
the harbor. At Kentville we dined outside(as many did through
. As in all(but one) places there, the food was excellent.
This is Marcia sitting in the parlor
of The Blomidon Inn
. Our room included a
4 course dinner and breakfast.
While there we met and enjoyed the company of
and Nancy Austin of
Fort Lauderale, Florida
| After lunch in Kentville we traveled through
New Minas about 12 miles to
, a small college
town which sits on the edge of the
. Our accommodations there was the Blomidon Inn, a 4 star
establishment with an excellent dinning room.

SKM 2023 – wissenschaftliches Programm
DY 24.4: Vortrag
Dienstag, 28. März 2023, 14:45–15:00, ZEU 148
Confinement induced relaxations and phase behavior of a nanoconfined ionic liquid crystal — •Mohamed Aejaz Kolmangadi1, Andreas Schönhals1, Li Zhuoqing2, and Patrick Huber2 — 1Bundesantalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM), Berlin, Germany — 2Technical Univeristy Hamburg TUHH and DESY
We investigate the molecular dynamics and electrical conductivity of a linear shaped guanidinium based ILC confined in self-ordered nano porous alumina oxide membranes of pore size ranging from 180nm down to 25nm by employing broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) and calorimetry. Calorimetric investigation reveals a complete suppression of the columnar - isotropic transition, while the plastic crystalline - columnar transition temperature decreases with inverse pore size and deviates from the Gibbs - Thomson equation. For the bulk case, BDS detects two relaxation modes in the crystalline phase, the gamma relaxation and the α1 relaxation, and two relaxation modes in the columnar phase, the α2 and α3 relaxation. For the confined case, all relaxation modes slow down compared to the bulk. However, for the least pore size (25 nm), the α2 relaxation is absent. We discuss the possible molecular origins of the different relaxation modes observed. For the bulk ILC, a clear jump of 4 orders of magnitude in the absolute values of DC conductivity occurs at the transition from the plastic crystalline to hexagonal columnar phase, for the confined ILC, this transition is smooth. DC conductivity is reduced for the confined case, except for the 25nm, where the values is similar to the bulk.

FRESNO, California. (KGPE) – It’s the largest settlement in the City of Fresno’s history: $4.9 million is going to the family of 16-year-old Isiah Murrietta-Golding, who was shot and killed by Fresno police in 2017 after he and his brother were identified as suspects in the death of a teenager.
This comes right after the city reached a $4.4 million settlement with the family of Casimero Casillas, also fatally shot by police in 2015.
“We believe settling both of these cases is in the best interest of local taxpayers so that we don’t continue to spend millions of dollars on legal fees,” said Fresno City Councilmember Miguel Arias.
Arias says the city must pay the first three million dollars of each settlement before insurance picks up the rest of it. In order to pay off the settlements, he said, the police department’s budget will increase. However, the money won’t go towards putting more officers on the streets.
“They will get additional resources to pay down these settlements, but unfortunately the public will not see more police services as a result of increased investment in the police department,” he said.
Michael Haddad, the lawyer who has represented Golding’s mother, says he asked the city to formally agree to provide regular training on deadly force to all officers. He claims the city refused.
“They really need to do something to make sure this doesn’t happen anymore – not just to save money, but to save lives,” Haddad said.
Currently, the city is acting on about 1/3 of 73 recommendations that have been submitted by the Fresno Commission on Police Reform.
Arias hopes tragedies like this can become a thing of the past.
“We’re settling use of force cases that could’ve been avoided if the use of force would’ve been changed years ago,” he said.
Arias said the commission is meeting with the city council and the police department tomorrow for the first time ever to discuss reform.

Today is a bitter-sweet day for me. You see, 30 years ago today I gave birth to identical twin boys. Our sweet little Nicholas Keith (2 lbs.) and Benjamin Robert (2 lbs. 3 oz.). They were perfect, beautiful gifts from God. When they were born, their souls were already with the Lord. But we got to hold them and love on them for several hours as we said our sad goodbyes; knowing that we would see them in Heaven again some glorious day. Well, here we are 30 years later. The pain is still very real as I recall their big brown eyes, dark hair, and tiny feet and hands. God is SO good! The very miracle of life is such a precious gift. I will never forget, and I will always be grateful for the seven months I got to carry them in my tummy and feel them move. Oh, how I miss them.
I created this card based on this week's tutorial over on the Papertrey Ink Blog that shows you how to use small felt die-cut embellishments on your cards. I used one of their many sweet die-cut sets to create this card. I used some Simple Stories patterned paper, vintage sheet music, machine stitching, half of a vintage cream doily, a Tim Holtz ephemera image, and some trims; including PTI's sweet Ivory Button Twine and some Gold Metallic String. I strategically placed my felt holly and berries here and there as accents and placed some tiny gems in their centers.
I am going to enter this card in the following challenges:
Nichole Heady's Papertrey Ink Blog - Challenge #234 - Embellishing With Felt - I used PTI holly and berries die-cut and their sweet Ivory Button Twine. LOVE this sweet store, and all the great inspiration on their blog each month.
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenges - "Let It Snow" as Simon Says - It's always fun to remember the snow, even when we don't live an area of the country that gets any!
I'm so very blessed that you've stopped by today. Let me just say this in closing. Be grateful for the children God has placed in your life, and thank God for them every day. Tell them every day that you love and value them. Hold them close. Let them be little, and let them make mistakes. They need you to guide them in the way of the Lord. Life is so very short, and so very precious.
My cup runneth over,

Red, White and Food reports there is still hope for wine sales in grocery stores. Note that Memphis’ Jim Kyle voted against it:
Last night the Senate Finance, Ways and Means Committee voted to pass the wine in retail food stores referendum bill. Read a statement from Jarron Springer, Tennessee Grocers & Convenience Store Association president, about the outcome of the vote:
“We are glad to see the wine in retail food stores referendum bill regain its momentum in the Senate. The Finance, Ways and Means Committee’s passing the legislation today puts us another step closer to Tennesseans’ having the right to vote on where they buy wine in their communities.
“The adopted amendments on the bill will help create a level playing field for all parties, and we look forward to this bill’s being heard by the full Senate in next year’s legislative session.
“Again, I want to express my appreciation to Lt. Gov. Ramsey, Speaker Harwell, and our bill sponsors Sen. Ketron and Rep. Lundberg for their support and commitment to making this a comprehensive piece of legislation.
“We’re hearing from our customers that they’re still very excited by the possibility of voting on wine in retail food stores for their communities, and we believe this public support will lead to the bill’s eventual passage by the full Tennessee General Assembly.”
Please take a moment to thank the senators who voted to give their constituents, and other Tennesseans, the right to decide where they buy wine in their communities.
Below is a list of the legislators in the Senate committee and how they voted on the referendum bill. Please take a minute to call or email these senators who voted “yes,” as well as Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey, and thank them for looking out for Tennessee consumers.

Themes of Käsebier's "Show Indian" Photographs
In 1898, Käsebier was busy establishing an independent career using her professional studio and making prints that would advance the acceptance of photography as a fine art during the pictorialist movement. Her portraits and photographs are expressive, reflecting an interest in her subjects as individuals. Käsebier biographer Barbara L. Michaels appropriately emphasizes the two basic themes of the photographer's work: independence and solitude. Photography provided Käsebier the means for an independent professional life and artistic achievement. In the same year, Käsebier took advantage of the opportunity to photograph Native American members of William "Buffalo Bill" Cody's performance troupe.
While books have been written interpreting photographs taken of Native American in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries (from images of individuals, groups, and tribes, to depictions of homelands), few of these works document the relatively small number of Indians who chose to leave the government-imposed reservation system to participate as performers in the popular Wild West shows of the period. The controversy arising from contracts Cody made with the United States government to employ American Indians actually fueled the efforts of the federal Bureau of Indian Affairs and Christian reformers alike to press the government for better treatment of all Indians in the country. Legislative battles over the rights of American Indians continued in Washington, D. C., throughout the history of Buffalo Bill's Wild West, from 1883 to 1913. But whether celebrated, and yet exploited, by the Wild West show, some Indians welcomed the opportunity to travel with Cody, therefore, freeing themselves for six months each year from the degrading confines of the reservations where they were forbidden to wear tribal dress, hunt, or dance.
Many of the Wild West "Show Indians," as they would become known, were Sioux Indian men from Pine Ridge Agency in South Dakota. The Smithsonian's collection of more than 100 portraits by Käsebier includes likenesses of select members of the Sioux who performed with Buffalo Bill's Wild West. These humanizing photographs are far from the exploitive marketing images and posters created by the Wild West Company to promote their arena show. The Käsebier photographs were made for her own personal project and consumption. She shared them primarily with family and her peers working in the New York modern art scene of the period.
The Smithsonian's collection of Käsebier's photographs goes beyond the initial studio portraiture taken in April, 1898 in Käsebier's studio on New York's 5th Avenue. Her lasting friendship with several of the performers led to multiple studio sittings and as well as other photographic opportunities which ventured beyond the bounds of her pictorial studio photography. Additionally, Käsebier received drawings from her sitters. While many of these drawings were made during the initial studio visit, others were included in private letters exchanged in the following decades of Käsebier's friendships with the performers, most notably Joe Black Fox and Sammy Lone Bear.
Division of the "Show Indian" photographs into categories is a necessary component to understanding Käsebier's collection. With a heavy editorial hand, Michelle A. Delaney, Director of the Smithsonian's Consortium for Understanding the American Experience, has curated the photographs into several themes as listed below. Each theme serves as a portal to an interpretive gallery of Käsebier's portraits of the Sioux Indian photographs, complete with a textual explanation of the characteristics of the photographs in each theme and a brief video interview with the curator.

It's that time of year... time to get your free credit report. If you don't already know, you can get one free credit report (from each of the 3 major reporting agencies) every 12 months. This is the website you should go to to get yours: https://www.annualcreditreport.com/cra/index.jsp
That means you can actually get one every 4 months. I'm trying to start a new habit and plan to get one in April, August and December. This time I went with Experian, but there's also TransUnion and Equifax as well. It's good to just rotate through each of them in the course of a year.
I just download mine and my husband's. Mine looked fine but my husband's had a few things we'll need to look at. If you don't already do this, you really should. It's a great opportunity to catch mistakes, see if anyone has stolen your identity and just check in on the status of your open accounts.
Good Idea : Get your free credit report at least once a year, if not every 4 months!
Question : When was the last time you checked your credit report? Is this something you are already doing?

There either is or is not, that’s the way things are. The colour of the day. The way it felt to be a child. The saltwater on your sunburnt legs. Sometimes the water is yellow, sometimes it’s red. But what colour it may be in memory, depends on the day. I’m not going to tell you the story the way it happened. I’m going to tell it the way I remember it.
The Lizzie Bennet Diaries is an innovative, original episodic video and social media series produced for the web. Adapting Pride and Prejudice to the modern era, Lizzie Bennet tells the classic Jane Austen tale from the point of view of an Elizabeth “Lizzie” Bennet who grew up in a world of cell phones, video cameras, and social media. The series was created by popular YouTube personality Hank Green and Streamy Award winning web video writer Bernie Su.
The holiday season is bringing more than cheer for actress Jessica Capshaw. The Grey’s Anatomy star announced on Monday that she and her husband, Honest Company co-founder Christopher Gavigan, are expecting their fourth child. “The holidays have certainly arrived … All of our lives are being added to by the lights, the music and cheer!!” she captioned a photo of her family at a Christmas tree farm on Instagram. “This year our family has reason to further broaden our smile … baby number four is on the way!! I am a lucky, lucky girl…”
The quickest way to tell whether an actor is serious about his or her career is to look at their “headshot”.Is it a professional photo? Or is it a snapshot taken on prom night? If you’re using a snapshot, it’s like showing up to race the Indy 500 in a VW Beetle. Nobody is going to take you seriously. I’m sorry, people… you can send me as much angry e-mail as you want about this, but it’s true! Don’t tell me you’re destined to be a major Hollywood star but you cannot scrape together the cash to get professional headshots.
The Grinch from Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical stole the spotlight at the Empire State Building’s 86th Floor Observatory December 14, 2012, to promote the musical’s limited holiday engagement. Discover the magic of Dr. Seuss’ classic holiday tale as it comes to life on stage. Featuring the hit songs “You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch” and “Welcome Christmas,” The Grinch discovers there’s more to Christmas then he bargained for in this heart-warming holiday classic.

Biden is a mistake. He is further proof that Obama, despite his rhetoric and optimism, is just like everyone else. Meet the new boss, as the song goes, same as the old boss.
Still, here goes: In 2008, I should have dispensed with the optimism, stopped
playing the inside-the-Beltway pundit game of influence, and talked straight. I
should have written that, unless the new administration fundamentally changed
U.S policy -- reducing the nuclear arsenals, cutting the military budget,
launching a full-speed effort to halve carbon emissions, abandoning the
nonsensical "war on terror" -- we would run the risk of Goldilocks.
Hopey McChange my left nut. He's just like McCain, but sexier. And we get to choose between our own Dum and Dee this fall, it seems.
Call me when the revolution starts.

Lights in London
A short visit in cold wintry christmassy London was lovely , specially with all lights everywhere.
See for yourself!
It features plants from East and West, meeting in the middle. A calm garden on top of a new railway station which is being build in Canary Wharf. It was calm and quiet in the middle of a concrete world. We had a lovely walk and enjoyed the amazing plants and trees there. Have a look for yourself!
There was a piano in the middle of the building so I couldn’t resist to do a fun bit on it which my aunt taught me.
Over Easter, I visited the Sky Garden, the highest garden in the UK. It is on the 35th floor of a building called ” the Walkie Talkie” in London.
Security is high , just like on an airport.
It was amazing to walk around this exotic garden!
It is free for the public but still needs to be booked and only open during working time, so I was happy to get tickets in the holidays.
Well worth going when you are in London!
It was wonderful to add this day to treasured memories.
Enjoy your day and see the beauty along the road!

I think it is fair to assume that we all have had numerous experiences throughout our lives that have required us to forgive or to be forgiven. These experiences happen on a daily basis. Life is full of mistakes. But no matter how much experience we have had with forgiveness, our understanding of it still seems to be flawed; especially when it comes to the more serious offenses. We get blinded by the pain caused by adultery, theft, betrayal, lies, selfish acts, domestic violence and other major mistakes, and forget what forgiveness is really all about. In our anger and ...

Forklift manufacturers remind us that under the conditions of high temperature and high humidity in summer, the temperature is high and the weather is hot. When using forklifts
, we should pay more attention to some problems. At high temperature, the heat dissipation performance of the engine becomes poor, and the temperature is easy to be too high, which will deteriorate its power and economy. Moreover, under the condition of high temperature and high humidity, the lubricating oil of each part of the forklift is easy to be thinned, and the lubricating performance is reduced, resulting in increased wear of parts under heavy load. It is also easy to cause the water tank to boil, the fuel supply system to be blocked, the hydraulic brake to fail due to the expansion and deformation of the leather cup, and the air pressure of the tire to burst with the increase of the outside temperature. Therefore, in summer, the maintenance of electric forklifts should be done well, and attention should be paid to cooling down, so as to avoid unnecessary troubles in the process of work.
Jiangsu Jingxin Lifting Equipment Co., Ltd. is one of the most-trusted manufacturing suppliers to the domestic markets.
Excellent quality yet affordable best at Jingxin forklift. Don't miss out!

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy and U.S. Sen. Richard Blumenthal urged state regulators Tuesday to reject a request by Connecticut Light & Power to increase a flat monthly fee on customers by nearly 60 percent.
In separate letters, Malloy and Blumenthal expressed their concern to the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority about the 59 percent increase in a monthly service charge. If its application is approved, CL&P could increase the monthly charge from $16 to $25.50. The fee increase would apply regardless of energy consumption.
“Such a step is completely contrary to Connecticut’s energy policy, unfairly penalizes those who use the least electricity and unduly burdens small businesses and people on low or fixed incomes,” Malloy wrote.
In his letter, Blumenthal said the state’s energy rates were already too high.
“Connecticut electric rates are already among the highest in the United States — fifth highest according to the federal Energy Information Administration — and ratepayers cannot afford the additional burden imposed by CL&P’s rate request,” he wrote.
Mitch Gross, a spokesman for CL&P, said the rate request was necessary for the utility to make investment’s in the state’s electricity infrastructure.
“Last year, reliability was better than it’s been in over a decade due to the targeted system improvements and replacements we have made in our system. At the same time, we have worked hard to control our own operating costs, which have resulted in savings for customers,” he said in a statement.
Gross said it was important to remember that customer feedback would be part of PURA’s review process.
But Blumenthal and Malloy also objected to a proposal by CL&P to increase its rate of return from 9.4 to 10.2 cents per dollar. In his letter, Malloy commended the company for making infrastructure investments following major power outages caused by a devastating winter storm in 2011 and Hurricanes Irene and Sandy.
“While these investments are both necessary and appreciated, we are living in a time of low interest rates and lower returns on investments, as anyone with a savings account or an IRA knows. In the current economic environment, we do not need to further burden rate payers by increasing CL&P’s rate of return beyond what residents can expect in their own investments,” Malloy wrote.
During a press conference at the Legislative Office Building, Blumenthal called the rate request the most “outrageous” and “unfair” in his memory. State Consumer Counsel Elin Katz called the flat rate increase an “enormous jump” in an already-high fee.
CL&P has proposed to raise the fee to $25.50 a month. Katz said that far exceeds the rates in nearby areas. She said the fixed charge in the Boston area is $6.43 a month. In Western Massachusetts, the fee is $6 a month and in New Hampshire it’s $12.39, she said.
“If you look at from Maine all the way down here to Connecticut, Rhode Island, we’re talking about being by far the highest charge. It’s unwarranted. It’s unmerited,” she said.
Katz said her office has advocated for the utility to reduce the fixed charge to a little more that $11 per month.
State regulators expect to have a draft decision on the utility’s requests by early December. In the meantime, PURA will hold a series of public comment hearings on the proposed increases. A public hearing is scheduled for Wednesday in New Britain with another in Stamford on Thursday. A third hearing will be held in New London on Sept. 3.
