ROCO architecture is often considered feminine however it dominates interior architecture in the present. The style gained popularity in Europe and was a dominant feature in several cities by the middle of the 19th century. Rococo architecture is often thought of as an outgrowth of Baroque art by historians of art. The style incorporates elements from various artistic styles and can be seen in a variety of examples such as French art, Italian art, German art, and English art. Today, a few of the buildings constructed by Rococo architects are landmarks of the past.
The religious and cultural associations of the style have made it to become a popular choice for architects. In the interior of a building, Rococo architecture frequently uses natural materials like terracotta and marble to create organic walls and furnishings. This contrasts with Venetian and Gothic architectural styles that employ mortar and bricks for their interior walls. The result is an atmosphere of religious symbolism as well as religious imagery throughout the construction of the building.
The Rococo style can be seen in the decorative details of certain buildings, including pillars, mantels, window frames, doors cabinets, windows, ceilings, moldings, and flooring. Architectural details that are inspired by the Rococo style include the use of plaster on the faces of many sculptures or paintings. The material used is usually terracotta or painted wood. For churches, the decorative elements placed on the exterior may often be reminiscent of Roman columns. Windows are often depicted as being made of stylized grapes.
Furniture is another instance of interior design that was influenced by the Rococo period. A lot of pieces have intricate details of flowers, leaves and feathers. Rococo furniture often incorporates wood and metal in conjunction with leather accents. The French armoire canopy bed, French armoire, French desk, chests, wardrobes and vanity sets are a few of the most well-known interior design examples from this era. In addition to the above furnishings mirrors are an additional key characteristic of this important style architecture examples. Mirrors in the shape of portraits of famous people are typically found within the home.
Rococo architecture examples that were utilized throughout the United States in both residential and commercial settings include some of the earliest examples of European architecture that were known at the time. Examples include the Queen Anne style, which is primarily a French innovation, Queen Anne furnishings, and the Continental style. All of these furnishings and interior designs are distinguished by their decorative features. Additionally, each of the furniture pieces was designed to efficiently make use of space and have a balanced aesthetic appearance.
Similar to British style furniture, the interiors that were used during the Rococo period were designed to maximize space and give an overall impression of opulence and luxury. The popularity of rococo style architecture in Europe has spread to America over time thanks to its popularity in residential and commercial architecture. Similar to the British style, most homes built in the rococo design have large windows as well as heavy wooden doors. This allows for large wall art or paintings to be displayed. A lot of times, huge wooden doors and windows are attached directly to the house to maximize the amount of light that can enter the room.
When it comes to furniture designs, there is something for all in the Rococo collection. There is a wide range of tables, chairs and chests to complete the look of a historic home. If individuals are looking for a more contemporary style, there are plenty of options to choose from, such as desks, cabinets, and chairs in the modernist style. The 18th century French interior architecture is one of the most influential styles of architecture that can still be seen today.
Rococo interior design ideas have a grace and elegance that is difficult to miss. The style is usually associated with Queen Elizabeth’s reign or the French Renaissance. While the style didn’t last for long, it has been around for several centuries, making it one of the more popular interior design styles used by many homeowners in the present. thai architect A visit to a French palace is a wonderful option to add a unique design to your home, whether you’re renovating or building your first one.

Vertical Tillage Coulter Kit Attachment Gets Even Stronger
In the fall, it can be used to lightly till the soil and incorporate and size residue, setting the stage for the spring planting season. It is also a practical way to dry out wet soils. The Vertical Tillage Coulter Kit Attachment works well in no-till conservation tillage, as well as conventional tillage operations, extending the growing season and creating better planting conditions. Vertical tillage prepares the soil to warm more quickly in early spring, energizing the seedbed for maximum growth and yield potential. In addition, the Vertical Tillage Coulter Kit Attachment allows for shallow seedbed preparation, which decreases the risk of excess soil density below the root zone.
The Vertical Tillage Coulter Kit Attachment is also an excellent addition to spring residue management. It increases planting efficiency, offers maximum yield potential, and performs well in all residue conditions. When spring planting is delayed by wet cool fields, the Vertical Tillage Attachment is the perfect tool to use to dry and warm them. Fluffing and sizing the residue along with fracturing the soil speeds the drying process. The Vertical Tillage Coulter Kit Attachment can be used as a surface crust breaker following heavy rains. Thousands of these kits made by Ron's Manufacturing are being used by farmers and excel in high residue crops, such as wheat, corn and soybeans. The Vertical Tillage Coulter Kit Attachment delivers optimal performance, cutting heavy residue to enhance planter operation. In addition, it offers improved insect and disease control through residue sizing and disturbance.
Overall, the Vertical Tillage Coulter Kit Attachment is a smart investment in that it has multiple uses, which will ultimately produce savings in terms of time and money. It also has a low operating cost per acre and can be used in a wider range of conditions than most tillage tools. It operates at a relatively high speed of 6 to 10 mph, which saves time. Additionally, the Vertical Tillage Coulter Kit Attachment allows for quick mixing of manure and soil to prevent loss of nutrients and control odor. It can also be
used for very shallow incorporation of fertilizer and select herbicides.
The Vertical Tillage Coulter Kit Attachment can be equipped with a wide selection of coulter blades. Spaced on 6-in. centers, the coulter blades can be matched to achieve the desired amout of tillage and residue sizing. Patent Pending.

Phosphorescent water can add a mysterious and electric vibe to a dark room without the electrical cost associated with neon lights. With a few simple ingredients (you might even own some), it is possible to make phosphorescent water in a matter of minutes. Learn how to make these simple recipes to add a personal touch to your next Halloween party or dance party.
Method 1 of 4: Using tonic
Step 1. Pour tonic into a transparent container
Believe it or not, the very simple tonic glows when exposed to black light, it even glows a lot. To achieve this effect, start by pouring tonic into a transparent container. You can pour it on its own or dilute it in water. However, the more water you add, the less shiny it will be.
- You will find tonic in most supermarkets for a few euros. Make sure to buy tonic, not sparkling water or sparkling water. It should be stated on the bottle contains quinine or something similar.
Step 2. Turn on a black light above the tonic
All you need to do to make the tonic glow is expose it to black light. Be sure to dim the room light before you start or it will be difficult to see the result.
You will find black lights in stores specializing in decorations or on the Internet. The price of a black light often depends on its size and strength, but a basic light can cost $ 20 or less
Step 3. You can drink the tonic, don't worry
Even though the tonic looks weird when you shine it with black light, that doesn't make it undrinkable, radioactive, or harmful to your health. However, tonic is often high in calories and sugar, so drink it in moderation.
Tonic glows this way because of a chemical it contains called white phosphorus. When the ultraviolet rays of black light hit phosphorus, they make it visible to the human eye and this is what makes it glow
Method 2 of 4: Using markers
Step 1. Buy some markers and test them to see if they shine
Not all markers glow when exposed to black light, so start by tracing a line on a sheet of paper to see if they glow or not.
- You can use any color, but yellow is most likely to glow consistently in the dark.
- Any brand of marker should work, but you can also experiment with other types of neon colored markers.
- It is easier to tell if it is shining by being in a completely dark room, so that it is not bothered by other sources of light.
Step 2. Fill a transparent container with water
Tonic isn't the only substance that contains glowing phosphors, standard markers work in a similar way. As with the first method, start by filling an empty container such as a glass jar with water.
Be aware that this method will destroy your marker, you will not be able to use it once you are finished
Step 3. Remove the tube that contains the ink in the marker
If you simply put your marker in the container of water, the ink will not flow through the felt tip. That is why you need to extract all the ink that is in the marker. Here's how to do it.
- Remove the cap from the marker.
- Use a pair of pliers (or your fingers if you're not afraid of getting dirty) to pull the felt out of the tip of the marker.
- Use the tweezers to remove the back of the marker.
- Carefully remove the ink-filled tube, being careful not to spill any ink or get it on your clothes.
Step 4. Install the felt stick and ink in the jar
Put the felt tip pen, ink tube, and all the ink you took out of the marker into the jar of water. The ink should spread through the water and change its color. Cut or break the ink tube if necessary. Stir the water to dilute the ink evenly.
You can leave the ink tube and felt in the water when you are done stirring or you can take them out, it's up to you
Step 5. Shine a black light towards the water
As you did with the tonic, you will make the ink glow in the water by exposing it to black light in a dark room. You can also attach a lamp to the bottom of the container to get a colored lamp (however, you will no longer get the neon effect you would get with black light).
- Unlike tonic, phosphorescent water obtained during this method should not not be consumed.
Method 3 of 4: Using fluorescent paint
Step 1. Find fluorescent paint at a fine arts store
The paint must be a tempera or water-based paint to be able to mix it in water. You could even buy glow-in-the-dark paint.
Like markers, you can use any color of paint, but generally lemon yellow or light green are more effective
Step 2. Pour the paint into a cup of water
To increase the shine that the water will produce, use as much paint as you want. You can put a few tbsp. to s. for just one cup of water.
Step 3. Mix the paint well
Use a wooden stick or similar utensil, not a kitchen spoon. Make sure the paint is completely dissolved in the water before continuing.
- The paint will dissolve more quickly in warm or hot water.
- If you let the water sit for a while, the paint will start to separate. Prepare this phosphorescent water for use immediately after stirring.
Step 4. Test the water
Turn off all the lights in the room and pass a black light over the water. Be careful when handling this type of phosphorescent water, since it contains paint it could stain fabrics.
- You must not not drink this mixture.
Method 4 of 4: Using fluorescent sticks
Step 1. Fill a container with water and collect the necessary materials
For this method, you'll use water, fluorescent sticks, and various ingredients to make water that doesn't need black light to glow. As with other methods, first fill a transparent container, such as a bottle or jar, with water. You also need several other things before you start:
- one or more fluorescent sticks
- dishwashing liquid
- hydrogen peroxide
- gloves that are water resistant
Step 2. Break the fluorescent stick (s)
Take each fluorescent stick, find the compartments inside, and fold the stick until you feel it snap. The stick should glow right away, it will be easier to see if you turn off the lights. Repeat for each of the sticks. The more sticks you use, the brighter the water will be.
- You will find fluorescent sticks in most stores specializing in party supplies or even in supermarkets (especially around Halloween). They are generally inexpensive.
- Try to find the widest sticks possible to make your water shine to the fullest.
Step 3. Pour the fluorescent contents of the sticks into the water
Put on your gloves. Using scissors, carefully cut off the end of each stick and pour the liquid on it into the water. Mix the water and the fluorescent liquid.
Be careful, remember that each stick contains pieces of broken glass
Step 4. Add hydrogen peroxide and dish soap (optional)
The water should now be glowing, but you can improve it by adding a few more ingredients to it. Measure a few plugs of hydrogen peroxide and pour them into the mixture, then pour half a tsp. to c. ordinary washing-up liquid (eg Palmolive, Ajax, etc.).
The two chemicals that are in the stick are diphenyl oxalate (in the plastic tube) and hydrogen peroxide (in the glass tube), which is hydrogen peroxide. When you break the stick, the glass tube breaks and the two chemicals mix together, producing light. Adding a little more hydrogen peroxide is like adding a little more of the product that is in the glass tube, which makes the chemical reaction brighter. Dishwashing liquid contains chemicals that reduce the surface tension of the water, which allows diphenyl oxalate and hydrogen peroxide to mix better
Step 5. Shake and Watch
When you're done, close the container and shake it (or just stir the water) to make sure the ingredients are well combined. When complete, the water will glow with or without black light (but black light might bring out the shine of the solution better).
- You must not not drink this mixture.
- Fluorescent water is excellent for evening parties. Put fluorescent water in glass jars, vases, glasses or any other transparent container and arrange them all over your home, indoors or outdoors for the enjoyment of your guests.
- You can also use fluorescent water in the bath. Prepare a bath by mixing in tonic or non-toxic fluorescent paint. Turn on the black light and turn off other bathroom lights to see your bath glow in the dark. It's great fun for the kids, however, if you use fluorescent paint, watch them to prevent them from drinking the bath water.
- You could also have a glow-in-the-dark water balloon battle. Fill balloons with fluorescent water and attack! Try using the fluorescent stick method and run around your backyard at night with friends to spice up this traditional summer game. However, avoid getting fluorescent sticks in your eyes and mouth.
- If you have snow in your yard, try preparing fluorescent water for painting the snow. Put the water in the refrigerator to prevent it from melting the snow and put it in bottles with nozzles. Go outside and pour the water over the snow to draw. It is also a great idea to spend an evening with your children.

And where did all these sages get the idea that man needs some normal, some virtuous wanting? What made them necessarily imagine that what man needs is necessarily a reasonably profitable wanting? Man needs only independent wanting, whatever this independence may cost and wherever it may lead.
Notes from Underground · Fyodor Dostoevsky · 1864
Pevear and Volokhonsky translation · Vintage, 1994 · 136 pages, paperback
With Notes from Underground, first published in 1864, Fyodor Dostoevsky picked up an axe of condemnation and swung—hard. Hard against an imposed ideal, hard against a code of right and wrong in human feeling, hard against the presumption that reason could dictate desire.
Dostoevsky tells us that not only is man inherently flawed but he is flawed because he wills himself to be so. Continue reading →
For an author known to upend the conventional to suit her purpose, Margaret Atwood missed the mark with Alias Grace. History called the shots in this one, and perhaps such a restraint proved too large a hurdle.
Alias Grace · Margaret Atwood · 1996
Emblem, 2014 · 567 pages, paperback
The 1843 murder of the gentleman Thomas Kinnear and his housekeeper mistress Nancy Montgomery is lifted from the historical record, along with the characters of Grace Marks, the titular murderess, and James McDermott, her alleged co-conspirator.
Ripe and festering with a young girl’s maligned reputation, shifting identities, lunacy and crime, the Kinnear-Montgomery double murder should have been putty in the hands of Atwood, normally a convincing author as well as temptress to the imagination and one who has tricks for curling the corners of her sentences into sly little images…but putty it proved not to be.

Death and the Penguin is a game of chance played with a stacked deck – and against a card sharp no less, one who turns the tables on this writer of obelisks. Andrey Kurkov’s novel has the sullen resentment of living fairly in an unfair world, and it has a dark humor to combat that same resentment. It’s also one that might make the lonely feel a little less alone.
Death and the Penguin · Andrey Kurkov · 1996
George Bird translation · Vintage, 2001 · 228 pages, Paperback
When you do know what’s what, it will mean there no longer is any real point to your work or to your continuing existence.
Viktor Zolotaryov writes obituaries of deputies, military officials, businessmen and others of VIP caliber in Ukrainian author Andrey Kurkov’s novel Death and the Penguin. But the obituaries have a predetermined publication date – that list of notables from which Viktor has been taking his assignments is also a hitman’s register. Continue reading →
If a mid-century German Crime and Punishment exists, it’s this one by Günter Grass. The Tin Drum is a desperate mea culpa on the way to absolution.
The Tin Drum · Günter Grass · 1959
Ralph Manheim translation · MJF Books/Fine Communications, 1987 · 465 pages, hardcover
The Tin Drum is a lament from one who balked at the storm but couldn’t drum a din loud enough to stop it, and Grass’ novel is bent on understanding this psychology. But to get at those things he’s unwilling to tell us, his readers must care enough to pry into his mind.
The spirit of Grass’ most major work is secreted in his protagonist Oskar’s first readings, a dichotomy of Goethe and Rasputin. It’s a fractured spirit of rational romanticism and lurid mysticism that Hesse, perhaps, would have envied.
The Tin Drum is the first novel in Grass’ Danzig trilogy, a loosely composed series that views the interwar and wartime era through the perspective of what was then the Free City of Danzig, now Gdansk, Poland. Continue reading →
Jeff VanderMeer is an adept master of the weird that is also the purposed weird, and while his creatures evoke Lovecraft, his prose is closer to that of Graham Greene and his themes reflect a mind steeped in Einstein’s relativity.
Annihilation · Jeff VanderMeer
Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2014 · 195 pages, paperback
Annihilation is the first book of VanderMeer’s Southern Reach trilogy. It’s adventure meets biological sci fi meets grotesque horror. It’s a novel that leeches and presents its poisons and cruelties as art form. Continue reading →
Bone · Yrsa Daley-Ward · 2013
Penguin, 2017 · 160 pages, paperback
As title for her work, Bone educes the sentiment of its verses. Yrsa Daley-Ward’s work in this collection betrays the varied hungers in desire; the haunting, depressed bite of bad loves gnawed through to nothing; and the hardness and “deal with it” attitude needed to accost life and, maybe, to make amends. Continue reading →
With Gogol, strangeness is inevitable and the one constant is a vertigo that abruptly skews reality before allowing it to settle again – only it’s shifted an inch from where we thought we’d find it.
The Collected Tales of Nikolai Gogol · Nikolai Gogol · 1830-‘42
Pevear and Volokhonsky translation · Vintage, 2009 · 465 pages, paperback
To read a Gogolian story is to read a story of layered perspective and one that fuses dreams with reality, metamorphosing into a singularly bewitched universe that exists side by side with our own. Continue reading →
Sofka Zinovieff’s most recent novel was meant to be a cross-section of a child’s first love, flayed and pinned back by the discerning scalpel of adulthood to show such a love for what it really is. But while Putney lands at the intersection of love and abuse, it then sits there idly, doing absolutely nothing.
Putney · Sofka Zinovieff
Harper, 2018 · 384 pages, hardcover
The seventies were a decade of anything goes. Daphne, the girl at the forefront of Zinovieff’s novel, is the product of a Greek-English household too busy with the art world, with the national resistance in Greece and with a lover each for mama and papa to parent her in any meaningful way.
Unlike the Daphne of myth, who appealed to her father for protection against Apollo’s lust, this Daphne enjoys it willingly enough when she finds herself recipient of Ralph’s affections. This willingness is at the center of Putney as Zinovieff tries to define juvenile love alongside an adult’s reckless touch when consent cannot be real. Continue reading →
Sarah Perry’s Essex Serpent is a bizarre tale. It’s bizarre not because of its serpentine mystery, but because it’s a good novel when everything about it would say otherwise.
The Essex Serpent · Sarah Perry
Custom House, 2016 · 417 pages, hardcover
You couldn’t say that The Essex Serpent is historical fiction or mystery or thriller, nor does it have a Victorian pastiche or the effervescent pall of a fantasy about it. Or it does, but not quite. It’s a curious novel but one clearly meant for the present day, the present year, a sort of amalgamation of past place and present principle. It’s odd. Continue reading →
Still Life with Woodpecker is a most postmodern postmodern fairytale.
Still Life with Woodpecker · Tom Robbins · 1980
No Exit Press, 2001 · 277 pages, paperback
For a man who can end a sentence with dildos and wax poetic about a good sucking off, it’s going to be a hard guess as to how he managed to end his story with individualism and true love. Tom Robbins takes an obvious pleasure in the process, delighting in a vocabulary that lends itself well to diarrhea of the mouth.
He’s also, incidentally, a fantastic storyteller. Continue reading →

I love books. I read them to learn, to get inspired, and sometimes to escape. It's been said that reading a good book feels like the picture below, and I think I agree.
With a large collection of books -- fiction (love detective mysteries the most), interior design and entertaining books, and a new growing genre of "how to blog" books -- I'm always looking for ways to house them attractively.
We have an office that also functions as a library, but the books outgrew those shelves a long time ago so now only the favorite fiction novels are kept there. I keep the books that I use for blogging tips near my desk, but most of the interior design and entertaining books have to find places elsewhere around the house.
The "library" shelves in the office
The shelves closest to my desk below
Whenever it's time to change the decor in the house (usually seasonally), I'll sit down with a cup of tea and open up interior design books to get some inspiration. Current favorites are Patina Style (Brooke and Steve Giannetti), Vintage by Nina (Nina Hartman), Black and White (Celerie Kemble), and Hers (Jacqueline deMontravel). Most of these books feature wonderful vignettes using books as design tools to create interest, color, and height. I find that as soon as I clear a table of Christmas decor, I want to create something new using the books who need a home and any other found objects. Heaven forbid there are any unadorned surfaces in this house.
On the dining room table, I used small concrete books (found at On the Veranda in Phoenix, AZ) to help raise the small boxwood topiaries under the screen cloches. The concrete books are wonderful to use outside because they can withstand any weather, but I'm using them inside while it's too chilly to be outdoors. I know, it's Phoenix and not THAT cold, but we're spoiled when it comes to weather.
Check out the detail in these books! The pages look almost real.
The living room side table gets outfitted with stacks of design books used to add height and interest.
Drawing design inspiration from Patina Style:
Love the clean simple display of books of a similar color
I've never been able to tear apart a book to use in craft projects (I'd rather donate old books to the local school library or give them to a friend), but I have to admit I'm intrigued by how others are creating delightful decorative items out of books.
I found this lovely little red book in Boston several years ago and was captivated by the crisp, clean folds that made the book an objet d'art.
How cute are these little goblins floating up from the pages?
What a perfect present for your favorite teacher! Just make sure it's not a school textbook that you're using :)
Don't you love the simplicity of this heart made from the pages of a book? If the text was about love, it would be perfect.
I'd love to make this page table runner for a Book Club dinner.
One little project I did take on was creating my own stacks of vintage books (they were technically vintage already but I helped them along by dyeing the pages with tea) tied together with twine. At Christmas I dusted the spines with gold glitter. To use them now, I just turn them around so the spines aren't on view.
With all of the decorative ways to use books, it's good to remember that...
sometimes it's just best to read them aloud to your favorite little people!

Arsenal finish in the top four of the Premier League, it is what we do. Sometimes it is a bit of a close call and needs the team to put in a great run towards the end of the season, but our consistency in qualifying for the Champions League every year since Arsene Wenger took over is why the football media have hilariously dubbed it the Wenger trophy.
The fact that we failed to win a real trophy for nine years did not help of course, but the Gunners finally saw that right at Wembley last May, adding a fifth FA cup win of the Frenchman’s reign. That was supposed to be the first of many, which it still could be, and also the sign that Arsenal were ready to challenge for the title again, which does not look likely this season.
In fact, our injury problems and some poor form in the first half of the season has meant that we are locked in a struggle for fourth place again. With Southampton showing little sign of faltering, Man United finding their feet, Liverpool rediscovering their spark and Tottenham starting to respond to Pochettino’s management, it was beginning to look harder than ever for Arsenal.
If you want a good indicator, however, look at the odds, because the bookies do not get much wrong. It costs them money after all. And, perhaps because of the new Arsenal tactics and resolve that was on show away to Man City, they seem to have no doubt that we will be there again at the end of the season.
In fact they have us about even with United for third place, at around 6/4. For the top four, they also have us both odds on at around 2/5, with Southampton next at about 6/4 before Liverpool slightly shade the spuds at around 5 or 6 to 1.
So if you believe the bookies, Arsenal fans, you can relax and plan for another year in the Champions League. We can’t mess it up now can we?

Words Matter. But Rights Matter More
Response to the ATR Debate Proposition: ‘It is important and necessary to make clear distinctions between (irregular) migrants, refugees and trafficked persons.’
The international community has recently taken steps to agree two intergovernmental compacts, which together are intended to revitalise the global governance of migration and asylum. The Global Compact on Refugees seeks to strengthen international cooperation on the refugee regime, while the Global Compact for Safe, Regular and Orderly Migration aims to establish principles, commitments and understandings among Member States regarding international migration in all its dimensions. The compacts have been brought into existence against a backdrop of widespread and increasingly systematic human rights violations committed against migrants by state officials, traffickers and other criminals, and leading to what has been called ‘one of the greatest human tragedies of our time’. At the same time, the very bifurcation of the compacts into two ‘separate, distinct and independent’ agreements rests on a set of assumptions that could distort rather than illuminate the complex issue of contemporary human mobility.

Attorney Chito Salud, the new PBA commissioner, has no worries with regard to the withdrawal of Smart Gilas in the Governor’s Cup Season ender. The withdrawal will only shorten the tournament by one week. There will be no major defects.
There will still be nine teams and from that nine teams only six teams will advance in the next round wherein they will have a single round robin game.
Smart Agilas asked for withdrawal because they have prior commitments to other international leagues which will coincide in the season ender of the Governors Cup. They are also asking if the PBA can allow Jimmy Alapag, Kelly Williams, Asi Taulava, and Dondon Hontiveros to play for them.
Chito Salud said that there will be no problem with regard to their request because Asi, Kelly, Dondon, and Jimmy are playing for teams that are owned by the SBP or the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipininas which is being headed by Manny V. Pangilinan.
Allan Gregorio, one of the coaches of Air 21, is willing to let Dondon Hontiveros play for Smart Gilas. He further adds that Hontiveros will be more than willing to play for the Philippine Flag. That is his dream, he says. Hontiveros wants to bounce back from a poor showing from the last 2007 Asian Games in Tokushima.
Mr. Sonny Barrios also added that with this withdrawal of Smart Gilas, they will have enough time to prepare for the FIBA Asia tourney. Smart Gilas' first international tournament this year will be the Jones Cup and the FIBA-Asia Champions Cup. The Philippines will host the Champions Cup which will start on May 28 up to June 5 at the PhilSports Arena.

Q. Where is the best location to plant a Japanese maple?
A. Japanese maple plants, Acer palmatum, are wonderful garden plants if cold-hardy species are selected and they are sited in correct locations. Japanese maples prefer to be planted in moist, well-drained soil that is high in organic matter. They should ideally be planted in a sheltered location to protect them from winter winds and late spring frosts. They are often afflicted by leaf scorch; therefore, they will benefit from some light shade.

David Ferrer and Stan Wawrinka march on into the Portugal Open 2013 semi-finals and will square off against Andreas Seppi and Pablo Carreno-Busta, respectively.
Second seed Swiss Wawrinka was broken in the first game of his quarterfinal Estoril clash against domestic player Gastao Elias, yet he managed to turn the proceedings around and ultimately advanced to the semis in straight sets. He pegged back immediately in the opening set and seized the second break when the 22-year-old Portuguese wild card holder was serving to stay in the opener. Wawrinka prepared a triple set ball and moved one set up after converting the third one. Other than Elias saving a break ball in the second game there were no upsets in the set number two until 5-4 when the home crowd favorite again failed to keep the set alive at 5-4. Wawrinka accepted the gift and progressed into the Estoril semis with a 6-4, 6-4 win. The athletes have not met before on ATP tour.
Seed number four Fabio Fognini was convincing in the first set against 228th-ranked Spaniard Carreno-Busta as he moved 3-0 ahead and succeeded to protect his one break lead without difficulties. Things were looking good for the Spanish qualifier in the second set as he escaped to 4-1, yet Fognini responded by winning three consecutive games to make it 4-4. He could not complete his comeback, though, as he was broken again when serving to stay in the set a couple of games later. 21-year-old Carreno-Busta showed great nerves in decider as he dropped a service game in the opening game, yet he turned the set around and advanced with a 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 win.
Top seed Ferrer did not excel in today’s quarterfinal match against Victor Hanescu of Romania, but did just enough to slide into the next round – the Romanian fancied his chances in both of the sets, yet he fell short in the end. All of the serves were held in the opener until the tenth game when the favorite took advantage of his first break ball to seal the set. In the second one the twenty-time ATP title holder Spaniard dropped a couple of serves, but squeezed into the tie-break nonetheless. He opened it with a five straight points run and soon converted his match ball number one. The result: 6-4, 7-6 (2).
Ferrer will now play third seed Italian Seppi who stopped recent Casablanca conqueror Tommy Robredo, seed number eight, and booked his semifinal ticket with a 6-4, 6-3 victory.

Police: Rutgers student stabbed; another charged
NEW BRUNSWICK – Authorities say they found large quantities of cash and drugs while investigating a stabbing that involved two Rutgers University students.
New Brunswick police went to a Sicard Street home around 1:20 a.m. Saturday and found a 23-year-old city man bleeding profusely from the neck. A witness told the officers that 22-year-old city resident Kevin Huang had stabbed the man, and the officers quickly found Huang on the home’s second floor, naked and pacing back and forth.
The witness told police Huang and the victim had both taken LSD earlier in the evening, and at some point Huang became aggressive and removed his clothing inside an apartment.
The witness left to get help when Huang allegedly began to destroy the apartment. When the witness returned, the victim was fleeing the apartment, bleeding from the neck.
As officers secured Huang’s apartment and took him into custody, they allegedly saw large quantities of drugs and paraphernalia. A subsequent search uncovered about 15 pounds of marijuana, approximately 500 bars of Xanax, a significant amount of cocaine, other unidentified pills and crystals and a significant amount of cash.
Huang was charged with attempted murder, two weapons counts and a series of drug-related offenses. It wasn’t known Saturday if he had retained an attorney.
Authorities say the investigation is ongoing.


Measuring O3 in Air
Information provided by Aeroqual.
Many applications require measurement and control of ozone of very low concentrations under 300 ppb (parts per billion). At these low concentrations, one needs to consider the following sampling issues with measuring ozone.
Ozone is Highly Reactive
- Ozone is highly reactive. Ozone will react readily with organic materials and surfaces such as walls, flooring, ceiling material, plastic test chambers and people. The greater the accuracy of the ozone monitor, the greater the variations will become apparent. If you are testing the accuracy of ozone monitors in test chambers, ensure the devices inside the chamber are clean and do not readily react with ozone. Such materials that work well are fluoropolymers and glass.
- Ozone will react with dust and oils. Ensure that all surfaces are clean and that any solvents used to clean such surfaces have completely dried. Even slight solvent residuals will have a dramatic effect on the sensor and residual ozone level in the chamber.
- Ozone concentration gradients are common in rooms and are greatly influence by air movement and eddy currents. This effect will be more pronounced at concentrations less than 100 PPB.
Monitor Design and Use
- Aeroqual’s ozone monitors are designed with "active sampling" to maximize air sampling at the sensor (to minimize ozone losses). Most expensive, analytical instruments also employ active sampling (e.g. UV photometry).
- Products without "active sampling" (electrochemical and conventional HMOS products) will normally under-read ozone concentrations below 200 parts per billion and struggle with sensitivity and accuracy, particularly in low air flow.
- "Active sampling" requires air to be blown or pumped to the sensor under precise flow conditions. Aeroqual fan based monitors are designed to be held at right angles to any direct stream being measured. Avoid forcing pressurized air into active sampling monitors.
- Air inlets are manufactured from cleaned stainless steel mesh and fluoropolymer materials to minimize ozone loss. Do not use sampling tubing:
- that alters flow characteristics,
- that reacts with ozone,
- longer then 1 foot or 30 cm on pumped based monitors without PTFE filters, e.g. centralized monitoring systems.

By: Angelstone Farms |
Angelstone’s inaugural Great Pony Challenge concluded on Sunday afternoon, with team ‘Rock’em Sock’em’ earning the coveted Championship in the $7,500 class, presented by equestrian accessories company ‘My Barn Child.’
Eleven teams competed all afternoon for one of the most highly valued pony championships ever presented. Teams of three were formed with each team’s two top scores contributing to the team score. ‘Rock’em Sock’em’s team of Lauren McMillan riding Royal Dublin, Allison MacDonald aboard Nantucket, and Zoe Siple riding Killer Cupcake put together a trio of rounds that were hard to beat!
The ponies took to the course in a one round format where they received classic scores that counted both for individual and team ribbons.
Team ‘Triple Threat’ just missed out on first place, and were only a quarter point behind the winning team score of 149.25. Team ‘Triple Threat’ consisted of Shae Lynn Kitching aboard ‘Rafiki’, Emily Burton riding ‘Little Dickens’, and Anna Ayers aboard ‘Peace Keeper.’
Rounding out the team competition was ‘Pink Power Jr.’, coming in third for the team portion of the competition. Team anchor Leanna Lazzari had an amazing performance in the medium pony division winning all four classes over the weekend, but her team just missed the mark in the classic competition. Leanna rode ‘Cherrybrooke Just Blue In’, Emma Hennessey piloted ‘Cedar Spring Pen Pal’ and Rachel Kup had a lovely round on ‘Unforgettable.’
Individually, Angelstone’s GPC Classic winner was Lauren Mcmillan aboard ‘Little Dickens’ who stole the show with a phenomenal ride and a score of 83 points. Second place went to Emily Burton aboard ‘Royal Dublin’ and third went to ‘Goldhills Arresting Charm’ and Savannah Singh.
‘My Barn Child’ presented each Division and Classic Championship throughout the weekend with MBC gift bags stuffed with lots of beautiful charms and accessories. ‘My Barn Child’ also generously donated a charm and a tiffany blue box of mints to every exhibitor as a thank you for attending Angelstone’s first annual GPC weekend.

An experiment was carried out to evaluate and compare the natural mating and Artificial Insemination (Al) in a commercial broiler breeders (ARIAN hybrid). To assay the effects of factors including: number of insemination (one or two times per week), depth of insemination (3 or 5 cm) and time of insemination (5 P.M or 7:30 P.M), the experiment was carried out in completely randomized design with 3 replications and 4 hens per each group. The experimental period was 8 weeks. The results of the study were showed that
the hatchability rate in two times insemination per week was significantly higher than one insemination per week (P<0.01). The hatchability rate in insemination with 5 cm depth was significantly higher that 3 cm depth at the level of(P<0.05). Insemination at 7:30 P.M showed significantly higher hatchability rate than 5:00 P.M (P<0.0l). Two times a week insemination at 7:30 P.M in 5 cm depth gave the best result, in first 5 weeks of the study. The hatchability rate of natural mating was significantly higher that Al from I to 5 weeks of test. But there was no differences between two treatments from 6 to 8 weeks. At 7th and 8th weeks the hatchability rate of Al was slightly higher than natural mating.

For people, discovering a misplaced pockets buried beneath a pile of things is fairly simple — we merely take away issues from the pile till we discover the pockets. However for a robotic, this process includes complicated reasoning concerning the pile and objects in it, which presents a steep problem.
MIT researchers beforehand demonstrated a robotic arm that mixes visible data and radio frequency (RF) alerts to search out hidden objects that had been tagged with RFID tags (which mirror alerts despatched by an antenna). Constructing off that work, they’ve now developed a brand new system that may effectively retrieve any object buried in a pile. So long as some gadgets within the pile have RFID tags, the goal merchandise doesn’t should be tagged for the system to get well it.
The algorithms behind the system, generally known as FuseBot, purpose concerning the possible location and orientation of objects beneath the pile. Then FuseBot finds essentially the most environment friendly approach to take away obstructing objects and extract the goal merchandise. This reasoning enabled FuseBot to search out extra hidden gadgets than a state-of-the-art robotics system, in half the time.
This velocity might be particularly helpful in an e-commerce warehouse. A robotic tasked with processing returns might discover gadgets in an unsorted pile extra effectively with the FuseBot system, says senior creator Fadel Adib, affiliate professor within the Division of Electrical Engineering and Laptop Science and director of the Sign Kinetics group within the Media Lab.
“What this paper exhibits, for the primary time, is that the mere presence of an RFID-tagged merchandise within the setting makes it a lot simpler so that you can obtain different duties in a extra environment friendly method. We had been in a position to do that as a result of we added multimodal reasoning to the system — FuseBot can purpose about each imaginative and prescient and RF to grasp a pile of things,” provides Adib.
Becoming a member of Adib on the paper are analysis assistants Tara Boroushaki, who’s the lead creator; Laura Dodds; and Nazish Naeem. The analysis will probably be introduced on the Robotics: Science and Programs convention.
Concentrating on tags
A current market report signifies that greater than 90 p.c of U.S. retailers now use RFID tags, however the know-how shouldn’t be common, resulting in conditions through which just some objects inside piles are tagged.
This drawback impressed the group’s analysis.
With FuseBot, a robotic arm makes use of an hooked up video digicam and RF antenna to retrieve an untagged goal merchandise from a combined pile. The system scans the pile with its digicam to create a 3D mannequin of the setting. Concurrently, it sends alerts from its antenna to find RFID tags. These radio waves can go by means of most strong surfaces, so the robotic can “see” deep into the pile. Because the goal merchandise shouldn’t be tagged, FuseBot is aware of the merchandise can’t be situated at the very same spot as an RFID tag.
Algorithms fuse this data to replace the 3D mannequin of the setting and spotlight potential places of the goal merchandise; the robotic is aware of its dimension and form. Then the system causes concerning the objects within the pile and RFID tag places to find out which merchandise to take away, with the objective of discovering the goal merchandise with the fewest strikes.
It was difficult to include this reasoning into the system, says Boroushaki.
The robotic is not sure how objects are oriented beneath the pile, or how a squishy merchandise is likely to be deformed by heavier gadgets urgent on it. It overcomes this problem with probabilistic reasoning, utilizing what it is aware of concerning the dimension and form of an object and its RFID tag location to mannequin the 3D house that object is more likely to occupy.
Because it removes gadgets, it additionally makes use of reasoning to determine which merchandise can be “greatest” to take away subsequent.
“If I give a human a pile of things to go looking, they’ll most definitely take away the most important merchandise first to see what’s beneath it. What the robotic does is comparable, but it surely additionally incorporates RFID data to make a extra knowledgeable choice. It asks, ‘How way more will it perceive about this pile if it removes this merchandise from the floor?'” Boroushaki says.
After it removes an object, the robotic scans the pile once more and makes use of new data to optimize its technique.
This reasoning, in addition to its use of RF alerts, gave FuseBot an edge over a state-of-the-art system that used solely imaginative and prescient. The crew ran greater than 180 experimental trials utilizing actual robotic arms and piles with home goods, like workplace provides, stuffed animals, and clothes. They various the sizes of piles and variety of RFID-tagged gadgets in every pile.
FuseBot extracted the goal merchandise efficiently 95 p.c of the time, in comparison with 84 p.c for the opposite robotic system. It completed this utilizing 40 p.c fewer strikes, and was in a position to find and retrieve focused gadgets greater than twice as quick.
“We see an enormous enchancment within the success fee by incorporating this RF data. It was additionally thrilling to see that we had been in a position to match the efficiency of our earlier system, and exceed it in eventualities the place the goal merchandise did not have an RFID tag,” Dodds says.
FuseBot might be utilized in quite a lot of settings as a result of the software program that performs its complicated reasoning will be applied on any laptop — it simply wants to speak with a robotic arm that has a digicam and antenna, Boroushaki provides.
Within the close to future, the researchers are planning to include extra complicated fashions into FuseBot so it performs higher on deformable objects. Past that, they’re keen on exploring totally different manipulations, comparable to a robotic arm that pushes gadgets out of the way in which. Future iterations of the system may be used with a cellular robotic that searches a number of piles for misplaced objects.
This work was funded, partly, by the Nationwide Science Basis, a Sloan Analysis Fellowship, NTT DATA, Toppan, Toppan Kinds, and the MIT Media Lab.

Vinery freshman Headwater struck for the fourth time in a week when Sequana countered a slow getaway to win running away in the Alfabs Maiden Plate (1200m) on Sunday.
The Kris Lees-trained 2yo filly was racing second-up against older horses at Mudgee and settled a conspicuous last under Andrew Gibbons. She caught the field turning out of the back straight before producing a whirlwind finish to score by a widening two and a half lengths.
Headwater’s other winners last week were Water Dove (Sunday), Gunnamatta (Wednesday) and Mr Colorful (Thursday). He has now sired 10 individual winners to join Pride of Dubai in second spot behind Spill the Beans (12) on the Australian first-season winners’ table for 2019-20.
“Andrew said she also jumped slowly and raced greenly first-up at Scone last month,” stable spokesman Chris Hull told Sky Racing. “The blinkers went on and she improved today. It was a big win with plenty of upside for the future.”

Rising faster than any farm input cost except rent, U.S. farm labor costs will increase an estimated 10.8% in fiscal year 2013, Kevin Patrick, agricultural economist with the USDA’s Economic Research Service, said in a Feb. 21 presentation at the USDA’s 2013 Agricultural Outlook Forum.
The uptick in labor costs will result from a projected 2.3% increase in wage rates and an expected 7.6% rise in total output for labor-intensive crops like fruits, vegetables, nuts and nursery products, according to USDA projections.
In other farm income projections, Patrick said the value of potato production in fiscal year 2013 (Oct. 2012-Sept. 2013) will decline 5.6%, as declines in both quantity sold and end-of-year stocks will more than offset a predicted increase in price.
The forecasted 4.4% increase for cash receipts for vegetables (except potatoes) in 2013 reflects higher expected prices and an increase in quantity sold of fresh vegetables, according to the USDA. Despite larger sales of apples and some stone fruit, expected declines in volumes for avocados, sweet cherries, and almonds factor in a forecast 7.2% decline in cash receipts for fruits and tree nuts in 2013, according to the USDA.
The total value of U.S. fruits and nuts sold in fiscal year 2013 is forecast at $23.6 billion, down from $25.4 billion in 2012 and off from $24.3 billion in 2011. Meanwhile, the USDA projects the value of U.S. vegetables and melons at $20.6 billion, up slightly from $20.3 billion in 2012 but down a notch from $20.9 billion in 2011.
Net farm income from all crops in the U.S. is forecast to rise 13.6% to $128.2 billion in 2013, which the USDA said is the highest inflation adjusted total since 1973. A return to average trend yields for grains is forecast to generate record crop production levels and substantial year-end crop inventories. Meanwhile, the USDA forecasts livestock production will edge 3.5% higher, with the forecast built on expectations of price increases.
Terry Barr, senior director of industry research for CoBank, Greenwood Village, Colo., said in his presentation that agricultural exporters could be faced with negative consequences from subdued growth and fiscal austerity in the global economy. Generally speaking, Barr said that USDA farm income projections reflect too little volatility.

A famous Korean actor and singer
The person who inspired me most is Kin Min John. He is a famous Korean actor and singer. Kim started his career at early age in the 1990's as a child actor through which he discovered his unique and outstanding talent. He lived with his parents in Korea. His father was an unsuccessful movie producer while his mother was a house wife. His family was rich but later became very poor. The turnaround of events did not affect the passion that Kim had for music and theatre. In fact, it appears that it motivated him to work harder. This early part of his life encourages me to be determined and pursue my dreams despite the challenges that I face. Importantly, these experiences enabled him to withstand hardships which helped him to shape his character, which was an important aspect of his success.
Kim inspired me because of his outstanding personality and character despite being a popular public figure in the Korean entertainment industry. He treated everybody with respect in spite of his influential position in the society. Kim received praise from his colleagues in the singing and the acting sector and they referred to him as a great team player. Furthermore, he interacted well with them and created relationships that facilitated his career growth. Additionally, Min respected the seniors in his field and was always ready to learn from them.This was portrayed when he composed a goodbye song to one of his seniors who died in a road accident as a way of showing respect to the deceased. Moreover, Kim was a great mentor to the younger musicians and actors in Korea. In particular, he willingly taught them on the basics of the field which encouraged them to grow. This emphasizes on the importance of respecting and cooperating with others toward the achievement of common goals. Furthermore, I am challenged by Kim's willingness to share his knowledge and skills to upcoming actors and singers. As a result, it indicates that he was a selfless singer due to his readiness to help.
Admirers' relationships with Kim Jong
What is more, Kim maintained excellent relationships with his fans. His ability to behave in a modest way in the public played a great role towards his popularity among the Koreans. He appreciated his admirers who had actually played the greatest role in his career growth. Besides, he treated them with respect and would always give a helping hand where needed. Interestingly, women adored him for his stunning looks and male posture while most men found him to be compassionate and refereed to him as a brother. This proves that Kim interacted well and was able to create meaningful relationships with everyone that he met. Most people saluted him for his ability to appreciate people and his attempts to solve their problems. This inspires me to improve on communication and interpersonal skills as a strategy to create meaningful relationships with others.
Besides, Kim inspired me because of his generosity towards the poor. He participated in charitable activities in Korea and other parts of the world. However, he did not take any credit on the kind deeds but gave the recognition to her mother. Moreover, his parents describe him as the youngest sibling who was always willing to share everything with his older brothers and sisters. This inspires me to be kind and to always take care of the needs of the less-privileged in the society.
The importance of upholding the integrity
Kim was a brave young man who took responsibility for his actions. This was portrayed when his composer copied a Japanese song and offered it to Kim. On recording, the song faced criticism from the media and the general public. However, Suh Yeong, the producer, denied the claim. As a result, Kim decided to retire from his music career. One of the vital lessons that one can learn from Kim is the importance of upholding integrity as well as applying ethics in the workplace or career. The scenario helped me to cultivate the culture of open-mindedness and honesty. In spite of falling him, Kim gave Suh a large amount of money as a gift during his wedding. This was a kind gesture that displayed Kim as an appreciative person.
Likewise, Kim's success in two different fields exhibits his ability to multitask and perform excellently. He was able to manage the two fields differently in a professional way .Amazingly, Kim was always energized every time he was performing in stage. The vigor is also reflected in his videos. This was a unique case in the Korean entertainment industry where most participants could not thrive in multiple fields. These capabilities enabled him to flourish and exploit his talent. Moreover, his achievements indicate that hard work and commitment are important factors for success.
Kim's entire life inspires me to be hardworking, passionate and generous. His success in music and acting challenges me to utilize my potential. Moreover, his humility and concern for the underprivileged in the society is an inspiration to the public and other musicians. Importantly, Kim impacted me through the message in his songs.

Biggest box ships to run with scrubbers
HyundaiMerchant Marines 23,000teu newbuildings are to be fitted with scrubbers, Finnish scrubber supplier Valmet has announced.
Valmet will supply the scrubbers to the ships that are being built in South Korea by Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering recently acquired by Hyundai Heavy Industries. The newbuilding container vessels are the largest in the world at over 23,000 TEU capacity. The scrubber system deliveries will start in 2019.
The scrubber system delivery will include tailor-made hybrid scrubber systems for main engine and generator engines including auxiliary systems and automation. All emissions are continuously monitored, and the complete exhaust gas scrubber system is controlled with Valmet's own marine automation systems.
Valmet has a long track record in supplying scrubber systems to different vessels types. This order is Valmet's first scrubber supply to South Korea and will further strengthen Valmet's position as a scrubber supplier for passenger and cargo vessels. Valmet has had its own locations in Korea over two decades to ensure best sales, project and life-cycle support for local customers.
"We are proud to provide our technology to the Asian market. Our scrubber system will ensure a sustainable and reliable exhaust gas cleaning for the ships," said Anssi Mäkelä, Senior Manager, Marine Scrubber Systems, Valmet.


Many instrumentation and control managers have adopted tuning fork technology for use in liquid applications. However, professionals across the natural gas, chemical, petrochemical, power, water and wastewater industries realize that the time and labor required to calibrate tuning forks to the right density has a negative impact on their facility’s performance and profitability.
The following comparison to tuning forks – which uses Magnetrol® Echotel® Models 961 (single-point) and 962 (dual point) level switches as an example – demonstrates the benefits that ultrasonic contact technology may provide.
- Ultrasonic contact level switches can read any liquid density, even below 0.6 SG. With a tuning fork, you must configure the DIP switch to ensure density calibration – and tuning forks may not be able to measure low-density liquids at all.
- Single and dual point options are also available with ultrasonic units. This means that only one switch and one tank opening is required to measure level – or perform auto-empty or auto-fill functions. Tuning forks would require the cost of two units and two separate tank openings to accomplish this.
- Ultrasonic contact technology gives you versatile access and ease of control, with remote mounting capability that can be up to 150 feet away from the transducer. In contrast, tuning forks require top-of-tank switch modification.
- You also receive more information with ultrasonic units, which allow you to configure two separate relay outputs for diagnostics and level alarms – or for high and high-high level alarms, which make ultrasonic level switches an ideal technology for oil refinery and storage facilities working on compliance to API RP 2350 standards.
- In addition, ultrasonic contact technology features advanced diagnostics capabilities compared to tuning forks, with thorough testing of electronics, transducer, crystals and presence of electromagnetic noise.
Magnetrol has produced a video that demonstrates the benefits of reliable ultrasonic contact technology compared to tuning forks. View the video now.

May 30, 2018 – Jim Lane, Biofuels Digest – In Canada, Ontario is investing up to $8 million in Comet Biorefining’s $79.8 million bio-based ingredient project through its Jobs and Prosperity Fund – Food and Beverage Growth Fund. The investment will help to establish the world’s first commercial-scale bio-based ingredient refinery in Ontario.
The news is just part of the picture for BioIndustrial Innovation Canada, which has been on an investment tear in recent months in part owing to picking up $12 million from FedDev Ontario for investment in regional diversification.
The basic idea — turn abundant, lower-value Canadian materials like cellulose into higher-value intermediates for the chemical, energy and nutrition industries. BIC’s acceleration activities have been putting Canada at the forefront of blobal bioeconomy development — and in particular, Southern Ontario, home to the Sarnia-Lambton industrial cluster.
It’s one of the most interesting project locations in the world, owing not only to the presence of a wide range of industrial partners and infrastructure in Sarnia via the cluster — but the adjecency to a whole lotta biobased feedstocks including souther Ontario’s substantial corn-growing region and Ontario’s massive forestry assets.
Feedstock, infrastructure, industrial partners and a willing government? It’s a potent combination that has been the catalyst for regional moves by GreenMantra, Benefuel and Origin Materials among others.
BIC invests in GreenMantra Technologies, Benefuel, Origin Materials
In recent weeks, Bioindustrial Innovation Canada made an investment in GreenMantra Technologies, a Brantford-based company that has made significant progress in up-cycling waste plastics, building a substantial ‘clean-tech’ enterprise by producing high value applications for their regional customers.
GMT has systematically increased its portfolio over time by continually adjusting their patented thermo-catalytic depolymerization process, allowing the company to effectively tailor applications for their customers using waste polyethylene, polypropylene and polystyrene. GMT’s process has already been proven on a commercial scale, as the company has healthy sales volumes and positive customer reviews attesting to the superior quality of the various products, which GMT’s wax additives are utilized in.
In April, we reported that Bioindustrial Innovation Canada approved an investment as part of Benefuel’s current financing round. This investment will allow Benefuel to complete the engineering needed as a final step before the construction of its first, commercial demonstration plant in Sarnia. Bioindustrial Innovation Canada (BIC) has been working with Benefuel for a number of years, providing advice and services in anticipation of Benefuel’s decision to build its first, commercial-scale ENSEL plant in Sarnia, Ont.
The ENSEL process combines the two main reactions for biodiesel production, esterification and trans-esterification, into a single step. This allows Benefuel to use a broad range of low cost, low carbon feedstocks resulting, in a negative carbon intensity fuel.
And last June we reported that BIC made a COMM SCI investment in Origin Materials, Sacramento, California, through BIC’s Sustainable Chemistry Alliance investment fund, as part of an investment round that will see Origin construct its first commercial scale demonstration facility in Sarnia by late 2018.
Origin has developed unique and proprietary technology which allows it to transform multiple bio-based feedstocks into a broad range of chemical intermediates with large existing market demand. The company has successfully demonstrated the technology in its Sacramento pilot plant but chose Sarnia for its first commercial scale demonstration due to the unique nature of the biocluster which has been growing in the Sarnia region in recent years.
This cluster allows Origin to not only locally source feedstocks but have a ready market in the biochemical value chain. Origin is supported by partnerships with several global consumer products companies that will benefit from bio-based packaging created from the Company’s bio-intermediates.
The BioIndustrial Innovation Canada backstory
Bioindustrial Innovation Canada (BIC) is a not-for-profit organization that began in 2008 as a business accelerator for sustainable chemistry. One of the early initiatives at BIC was to evaluate technologies to convert biomass (corn stover and wheat straw) into sugars for producing energy and value-added chemicals for commercial and biofuel industries.
Back in 2016, BCI made a major move in establishing COMM SCI — the Centre for Commercialization of Sustainable Chemistry — to act as a hub for the commercialization of sustainable chemistry and bio-based innovation. BIC has a partnership with Cycle Capital Management and ArcTern Ventures to cooperate in seeking sustainable investment candidates.
The Ontario backstory
Since January 2013, Ontario has committed over $950 million in projects administered under JPF, leveraging over $12 billion in total investment. This is helping to create and retain approximately 55,000 jobs.
The Comet backstory
Comet Biorefining produces sustainable, high-quality ingredients for the food and beverage, animal nutrition and biomaterials markets. The company’s proprietary ingredient technology allows for the conversion of agricultural residues, such as wheat straw, corn stover and wood products, into high purity ingredients. The new production plant in Sarnia for high- quality, sustainable ingredients that will help to directly create 82 new jobs and 158 new indirect jobs, including those in harvesting, construction, farming and manufacturing.
Reaction from the Stakeholders on the Comet investment
“Our government’s investment in Comet Biorefining will help position the company to compete globally. This will in turn help create and retain jobs, boost Sarnia’s local economy and support the competitiveness and further growth of Ontario’s agri-food sector. Through the Jobs and Prosperity Fund, our government is helping foster growth in Ontario’s food and beverage processing and bioeconomy sector.”- Jeff Leal, Minister of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs
“With support from the Jobs and Prosperity Fund, Comet Biorefining boosts its competitiveness, further strengthens Ontario’s innovative bio-economy cluster and creates jobs. The project demonstrates how strategic partnerships are building opportunity while positioning the province for long-term growth.”- Steven Del Duca, Minister of Economic Development and Growth
“This investment will provide us with important financial support needed to move forward with the construction of our commercial-scale facility in Sarnia. Once completed, this facility will produce sustainable ingredients for customers across North American and provide a win for local farmers, a win for the environment, and a win for the Canadian bioeconomy as a whole. We thank the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs for their support of this project and leadership in making Canada a global front-runner for the manufacturing of bio- based products.” – Rich Troyer, CEO of Comet Biorefining

Iggy Pop has now been at large in the music business for well over half a century. In that time he has become a household name and brought the likes of The Passenger, Lust for Life and I Wanna Be Your Dog to our appreciative ears. His impressive career leads us to Post Pop Depression, his 17th studio album, which is due for release on 17th March and it’s set to be something rather different.
After laying some lyrics in modern legend, Josh Homme’s lap in early 2015, Homme reciprocated and they started laying the foundations for a collaborative effort. Enlisting the help of QOTSA bandmate Dean Fertita and Arctic Monkeys drummer Matt Helders, the quartet entered Homme’s home studio in Joshua Tree and after two weeks, Post Pop Depression was complete. Later, Homme cited preparing it as one thing that got him through the Bataclan attacks in November 2015. I guess appropriately, and putting the album title into context, the album tackles Pop’s mortality and what he’ll leave behind. The result of these two at work together has produced a 9 track stroke of genius.
Pop, as ever, tackles his chosen subject poetically and his signature emotive, gravelly tones suck you straight into the slow, grinding guitar and disjointed rhythms that are Homme’s hallmark. There are moments where I really felt like this was a QOTSA album, especially as Pop’s vocals can drop to a baritone level on par with long-term collaborator Mark Lanegan, but there’s a shaky, almost operatic edge to Pop’s which so often comes with age that sets them miles apart. The album starts with the haunting lyrics “I’m gonna break into your heart, I’m gonna crawl under your skin…and follow, to see where you begin” set to the backing of a pedal modified guitar that sounds not dissimilar from a ghoulish steel drum. This is followed with a riff that wouldn’t have been out of place on QOTSA’s Like Clockwork and the overall effect is jaw dropping.
The recent single, Gardenia opens with poppy feeling synth fading away and sinking into a dirty funk bass riff. It’s catchy and has that NY cool which sees me subconsciously foot tapping and nodding away. This track feels more like Iggy Pop, especially with his warbling and punchy vocals during the verses and stands out a firm favourite for me from this LP. This is followed by American Valhalla which begins with twinkly some xylophone no less! This is however, a ruse as the tune carries straight into an even dirtier guitar riff than Gardenia and oozes Homme’s signature so much that you could tell he had a hand in it without any background knowledge.
The next track – In the Lobby has a more collaborative feel to it. The drums, bass and vocal are steeped in psychedelic influence and the overlain guitar carries a more modern feel, not dissimilar to Mind Eraser, No Chaser (Them Crooked Vultures).
The remaining tracks continue in a similar vane, waxing and waning but always holding that slow, trudging brilliance the album set out with up to the final track – Paraguay. Paraguay opens with a harmonised acappella and for the first time on this LP, clean, chord driven guitars bolstered with a smattering of piano. On the face of it, it seems to be about travelling to Paraguay, but some of the lyrics make me think that this is more of poetic reference to travelling to the other side. In spite of the implied subject matter, the 6+ minutes of the track is broken with tra-la-la’s, then thumping chords with recititive recitative vocals at the bridge. It’s a fantastic finish and another of my favourites from the LP.
Overall, the album is hypnotic and in contrast to the subject matter, has an uplifting effect, drawing you in from the start and holding your unwavering attention throughout. Having been something of a fan of both Pop and Homme individually, I was hoping for great things from their collaboration and I have not been disappointed. This will be a must have for fans of both Iggy Pop and Queens of the Stone Age alike.
