The average rating from IMDb users for the first four seasons of a show was 7.4, so the fifth season, which is just starting, must be excellent. Well, it is! We’re talking about the popular TV show “Dynasty,” which is based on a soap opera. Sallie Patrick, Josh Schwartz, and Stephanie Savage, the creators, have made a masterpiece for drama fans.
Every Friday, the CW network airs the first episode of Season 5 of Dynasty. The reviews have been good so far. But the story doesn’t end here. Fans are now waiting for Season 6 of Dynasty. This article will tell you everything you need to know about when Dynasty Season 6 will come out, who will be in it, what will happen, etc. So that fans of dynasties can keep reading!

Dynasty Season 6 Cast: Who Has A Chance to Come Back?
No one knows for sure if Dynasty will have a sixth season, but there are good chances that it will. The producers haven’t said who will be in the sixth season yet. So, all we can do is guess based on the people who were in the fifth season. Some of these names could be in the cast:
- Fallon Carrington, a well-known character, will be played by Elizabeth Gillies.
- The part of Cristal Jennings Carrington will be played by Daniella Alonso. Alonso looks a lot like Rita, who was the same as Cristal.
- Eliza Bennett will play Amanda Carrington again.
- In the Sixth Season, Geovanni Gopradi plays the part of Roberto Flores.
- Kara Royster will play the part of Eva.
- Pej Vahdat can be seen playing the role of Dex Dexter once more.
- Rafael de la Fuente could play Sammy Jo
- James Mackay could be Steven Carrington
- Robert Riley could be Michael Culhane
- Alan Dale could be Joseph Anders.
All of these actors could show up in season 6.
For Season 6, there is a good chance that many new people will be added to the Cast to make the story work. This is just a rough idea. As soon as we know for sure who will be in the next season, we will update the list.
Dynasty Season 6 Release Date: When Will It Come Out?
There is no information about when Season 6 of Dynasty will come out. The fifth season of the same show is now starting on the CW network. We hope we’ll know when Dynasty Season 6 will come out after the premiere of the fifth season.

Dynasty Season 6 Trailer: Is There Any Teaser Available?
A trailer for the sixth season can’t be expected until we know for sure that it will happen. As Season 5 is being shown, there may be some predictions that come true after the last episode. The last episode will give us hints about whether or not there will be the sixth season of Dynasty. So, we will have to wait. Let’s watch the trailer for the previous season:-
Where can I watch Dynasty Season 6?
All Dynasty seasons are shown first on the CW network in the United States. But after the last episode of the current season airs, the rest of that season’s episodes are made available on Netflix, which already has the rights to show them in 188 countries. The first four seasons of the show are on Netflix, and the fifth will be added after the last episode airs on the CW.
Why was the show Dynasty taken off Netflix?
Under the old streaming deal between The CW and Netflix, old seasons of Dynasty were added to Netflix in the U.S. eight days after the season finales aired on The CW. The fourth season, on the other hand, was a little late. Season 4 of Dynasty ended on October 1, 2021, and the new season began on Netflix on October 22, 2021.
Fallon and Liam’s marriage ends?
Fallon and Liam have been legally married once, which was a loophole for Fallon’s contract. They got a divorce after the contract was over, and they’ve been engaged twice. In the book “Vows Are Still Sacred,” it says that they got married later.

The TARFALA TRIO has its roots from 1992, meeting at the SOLO - 92 festival in Stockholm, Sweden. After that first encounter in 1992, the trio has worked sporadically and played festivals in Europe and releasing 2 Cds on Maya Recordings. This recording captures them playing live in Belgium, 2009. It is explosive, high energy loaded ferocious music focusing on low dynamic melodic material. Tarfala Trio is at their peak creating the most exciting improvised music you can hear today.
This is a double limited gatefold vinyl edition only, which, as a bonus, contains one-sided 7“ EP and a booklet of photos of the musicians playing live.

In an open letter to the UN Disengagement Observer Force in the Golan Heights, a Syrian rebel faction has threatened to begin targeting the UNDOF troops if they don’t prevent Syria from deploying military forces into the demilitarized zone.
The zone was set up in May of 1974 after clashes over Israel’s occupation of parts of the Golan Heights. The demilitarized zone was meant to put some distance between Israel and Syrian forces, however, and not to give the rebels an uncontested stranglehold on the region.
The UN has commented on the latest rebel demands, but in practice its observer force isn’t powerful enough to force Syria’s military out of the zone, and since the incursions have nothing to do with the UNDOF mission of keeping Syria and Israel from fighting, it’s hard to imagine the UN Security Council is going to support the rebel interpretation.

First Lady in Control of Building Her Image
WASHINGTON — Vogue magazine, the fashion world’s chronicler of first ladies, bedecked Hillary Rodham Clinton in black velvet and Laura Bush in blue silk. But not Michelle Obama. She insisted on choosing her own dress (a sleeveless, magenta silk number) and using her own hair and makeup stylists for the glossy photograph splashed across Vogue’s March cover.
This was nothing new for Mrs. Obama, who has pointedly controlled her look on the covers of People, Essence, More and O, Oprah Winfrey’s magazine. Editors at Essence, who suggested colors, styles and accessories, said her staff did not call to acknowledge their overtures. Editors at More said they were dumbfounded when, after painstaking negotiations, Mrs. Obama showed up at the photo shoot with a different dress from the one she had promised to wear. (She ultimately agreed to go back to her first choice, a pink Maria Pinto sheath.)
“We were like, ‘Excuse me, we tell you what to wear,’ ” said Lesley Jane Seymour, the editor-in-chief of More, who said Mrs. Obama refused to wear anything other than her own clothes for their October cover. “She wanted none of that. She was creating the cover. She was creating the image. There’s definitely a will of steel there.”
Indeed, the new first lady is methodically shaping her public image, and in ways that extend far beyond fashion.
She has given coveted interviews primarily to women’s magazines and news outlets that have allowed her to highlight her domestic side: her focus on motherhood and her efforts to settle her family in the White House; her interest in gardening and healthy living; her affinity for mixing off-the-rack and designer goods; and her efforts to open up the White House to ordinary Americans.
Mrs. Obama’s aides meet regularly with the president’s senior communications team and select public events that will maximize her message. She sticks closely to her script, delivering lively, brief speeches that rarely stray from her prepared remarks and steer clear of controversy. She talks about her support for volunteerism and military families, but seldom discusses race, her keen interest in influencing public policy or her place in history as the first African-American first lady.
By focusing on her domestic persona and harnessing the fascination with her family, the first lady and her communications team have emerged as the key architects of one of the most remarkable political transformations in years. Only 10 months ago, Mrs. Obama was described as an angry black woman by some conservatives and as a liability to her husband. Now, she is widely admired for her warmth, and her vibrant and accessible manner, and her race seems almost an afterthought to many Americans. She has the highest favorability ratings of any incoming first lady since 1980, and is even more popular than the president.
Obama administration officials say this shift has occurred organically as more people have had the opportunity to see and hear the first lady for themselves rather than through the lenses of her critics.
But David Axelrod, the president’s senior adviser, does not deny that the efforts of the first lady’s team — headed by communications director Camille Johnston and press secretary Katie McCormick Lelyveld — have also influenced perceptions.
“I wouldn’t say we’re trying to soften her,” Mr. Axelrod said. “But is there an effort to get people to know her? Yes. We want people to know her. There were caricatures of her during part of the campaign.”
“Those interviews are valuable,” he said of Mrs. Obama’s conversations with celebrity and women’s magazines, “because they tend to focus on her as a person and that’s important for people to know.”
The image that Mrs. Obama is projecting, however, fails to fully reflect the multifaceted first lady. A Harvard-trained lawyer and former hospital vice president, she is also a tough-minded professional who cares deeply about influencing public policy and sometimes promotes legislation at her events. Her top aides, for example, are often immersed in policy discussions in the West Wing that are not publicized by the White House.
Mrs. Obama’s chief of staff attends the morning meeting run by Rahm Emanuel, the president’s chief of staff, and her policy director often sits in on weekly briefings with the president’s domestic policy adviser.
Mrs. Obama’s aides are working with the president’s domestic policy team to help develop strategies to support working parents. And they weighed in on the selection of the recently nominated chief executive of Corporation for National and Community Service, which oversees AmeriCorps, the national service agency that has been allotted $1.1 billion in the president’s budget, administration officials say.
In fact, Mrs. Obama is so passionate about national service that she recently buttonholed a senior lawmaker at a White House dinner and urged him to move quickly out of committee the legislation intended to expand AmeriCorps. (The president signed that legislation into law this week.)
Representative George Miller, the California Democrat who is chairman of the House education committee, said he was surprised. “I didn’t know she had this deep knowledge about what was happening on the Hill,” Mr. Miller said.
Some people who know Mrs. Obama lament that this side of her is so rarely on public display. Some blame the news media for being more interested in her exercise routines than in her thinking on big issues. Others believe that her aides are placating those voters who prefer more traditional first ladies.
“We’re not getting all of Michelle Obama, and that’s a shame,” said Connie Schultz, a journalist and author whose husband, Senator Sherrod Brown, the Ohio Democrat, is friendly with the president.
“It’s the softer, domestic side that we’re seeing, which appeals to a lot of people,” Ms. Schultz said. “But a lot of us are cheering her on and hoping we’re going to hear more from that public policy side of Michelle Obama. Maybe it’s the old-fashioned feminist in me. I want to keep celebrating that brain.”
Mrs. Obama has declined to sit for wide-ranging interviews with several newspapers, including this one, preferring to focus on particular themes. (She gave The New York Times an exclusive interview about the White House vegetable garden, for instance.)
Some political analysts believe Mrs. Obama hopes that her surging popularity will ultimately allow her greater latitude to operate more openly in policy realms that she cares about.
“She’s building up enormous goodwill,” said Paul Costello, who served as an adviser to the former first lady Rosalynn Carter. With such strong support, Mr. Costello said, she might ultimately feel confident enough to “push the envelope.”
For now, Mrs. Obama seems perfectly comfortable with her public persona.
After joking in January that her new job “doesn’t pay much,” Mrs. Obama now typically describes the job of first lady as the best in the White House, saying that even her husband is often jealous of what she gets to do.
“I don’t have to deal with the hard problems every day,” she told a group of schoolchildren this week. “I get to do the fun stuff.”

In the film “Motorcycle Diaries” (2004) the viewer rides along for a 14,000-kilometer journey through Argentina, Chile, Peru, Colombia and Venezuela. The drivers are a young Che Guevara (Gael García Bernal) and his friend Alberto Granado (Rodrigo De la Serna). The film dramatizes an actual trip taken by the pair in 1952. Seeking adventure amid the natural beauty of the continent and its people, the pilgrimage leads them to discover another feature of the region: economic inequality and the oppression of workers. Guevara and Granada do a lot of sitting and listening as farmers tell stories of forced displacement and mine workers describe the struggle to find work. The experience sets the pilgrims on a revolutionary path.
When I participated in a delegation to Honduras in September 2013, many scenes and stories from this film came to mind. The primary purpose of our delegation was to sit and listen. Our hope was to find ways to be in solidarity with the people we encountered along the way. The delegation met with Jesuits and colleagues, community leaders and farmers, the intelligentsia in the capital city and community organizers in rural villages. In each place, we listened to stories about a country engulfed in violence, drug trafficking, police corruption, increasing militarization, the expansion of mining interests and the forced displacement of campesinos.
The experience touched my heart deeply. When I came home, I created a photo journal to share some of the images and stories from the trip. (Click here to open the photo journal.) I hope that you, too, will be moved by these people and their stories, and in your own way, find creative ways to respond.

Are you mad because whatever you were going to do today is now ruined by this amazing photo of two Shetland ponies in Fair Isle sweaters? Sorry! Too bad! It’s only the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen, so I thought I’d share. Apparently, this pony/sweater combo situation is being used in order to promote Scotland or whatever. Well Scotland, it’s definitely working. Check out another picture after the jump! Keep reading »
Sure, dogs will let you pet and scratch them all over. But cats? Cats really make you earn it. You can’t just willy nilly pet a cat — unless you want a bite, or a case of cat scratch fever. So take a good look at these helpful charts before you extend a hand out to that tabby’s paw. [Buzzfeed]
White lions are incredibly rare: a majority of their population is kept in zoos because of a (recently-dispelled) belief that they could not survive in the wild, and another large part are bred in South African camps for “canned hunting” purposes, which makes me want to say, “Fuck this whole being human thing.” There are only about 200 of them in the world, but these numbers got a healthy boost recently when twin female white lions gave birth to six cubs between them. They are, as you can imagine, to die for — and it’s easy to see why indigenous African priests recognize these beautiful creatures as direct messengers of the divine. Check out the cubs in this video, then hop on over to White Lions Homeland to learn more, and see what you can do to protect their future. [BuzzFeed]
Sometimes I feel bad about wild animals enclosed in zoos. But I feel slightly less bad for Gina, a chimpanzee at the Seville Zoo in Spain, who spends her days watching porn on TV.
Gina’s TV has lots of different channels, but the only ones that this frisky primate watches are the ones rated “adult entertainment.”
Chimps are, of course, one of the closest cousins to humans; we share 90 percent of our DNA with them.
That information should, I hope, make Salon.com writer Issac Abel, 23, feel slightly better: Abel published an essay this weekend about how he came of age masturbating to internet porn and now he’s having difficulties getting sexy with real, live women who don’t fulfill his fantasies quite like those on set.

I realize that at 10, you’re a bit too young to actually be my boyfriend. However, I’d just like to give you a shout out, as a fellow cat lover and feline fanatic. In 2009, when you were just seven years old, you donated your entire year’s worth of allowance to help save animals at City Kitties in Philadelphia, and have done so every year since. I understand you’ve now got three cats, and are well on your way to being a bonafide crazy cat person, and I, for one, couldn’t be more thrilled. Keep reading »

Monastic ensemble includes: the Church of the " Assumption of the Virgin Mary " - built in the early century. XIV, old cells - made during sec. XVIII - XIX, the new cells – built in 1905; this is one of the oldest monasteries in the country.
The legend of the monastery is linked to the discovery of the miraculous icon of the Virgin Mary with baby Jesus; tradition says that a bull with its horns dug in the monastery building site, discovering the miraculous icon; on the other hand, excavations carried out in 1976 revealed evidence of the existence a monastery since the beginning of the second millennium AD.
Etymologically named Hodos Bodrog comes from slavic: hudus - meaning festive, the name of the bull that discovered the icon and Bodrog - the realm between waters, which comes from the names of two neighboring localities, around which the monastery was built.
The monastery and its monks are of Orthodox cult, also being a tourist attraction and a historical monument of national interest.
The inside of the church, is dated from the second half of the XIV (1370) century; Subsequently, it was rebuilt in Baroque style with Byzantine frescoes, which happened in the XVIII century; A noteworthy fact is that the church was built of stone and bricks from the old Roman settlements (as seen by the records carved on the north wall of the church).
A part of the churchs’ paintings date from the XVI – XVII century, but due to bad weather it was worsened, being restored by painters Anastase Demian and Cornel Cenan in 1938 or 1943. In 1968, the painter Eremia Profeta decorated the exterior of the church.

Death In Vegas Get Austra's Katie Stelmanis for New Album
Published Jul 20, 2011It's been a long time since psychedelic/electronic UK outfit Death In Vegas released their last album, Satan's Circus. Seven years, to be exact. So to say that the troupe's newly announced album has been a long time coming is a bit of an understatement.
While there's no doubt some of their familiar, darkened big-beat tendencies will be feature on the upcoming disc, titled Trans Love Energies, some new collaborators will be popping by to liven up Death In Vegas's festivities.
A press release confirms that while producer/songwriter/frontman Richard Fearless will be tackling the better part of the singing duties this time out, gloomy new waver Katie Stelmanis, of Toronto's Austra, will be guesting on a pair of songs as well.
Following a stint playing guitar with New York-based Black Acid and studying film and photography, Fearless is back in the UK, putting the final tweaks on Death In Vegas's upcoming masterwork. A tracklisting has yet to be revealed, but Trans Love Energies is set to come out September 12 on the band's imprint, Drone Records.


Former staff secretary Rob Porter was reportedly in active talks about a promotion, possibly to deputy chief of staff, when his ex-wives went public with allegations that he had physically and verbally abused them, CNN reports.
White House Chief of Staff John Kelly has claimed he demanded and got Porter's resignation within 40 minutes of fully understanding the severity of the allegations last week, although FBI Director Christopher Wray said Tuesday that he first briefed the White House on Porter in March 2017, and then several more times in subsequent months. Likewise, "multiple administration officials" told Politico and other news organizations that Kelly had known about the main points of the allegations against Porter for months, as had White House Counsel Don McGahn.
Porter's "anticipated elevation further highlights how top White House officials were willing to overlook indications from the FBI that there were potential abuse allegations in his background in exchange for professional competence in a tumultuous West Wing," CNN reports. Porter had reportedly expressed interest in speechwriting and trade policy positions as well.
"Kelly had told associates that Porter was one of the few competent professionals on his staff [and] wanted to ensure that he was being used to his full potential," reports CNN's David Wright. As The New York Times' Alex Burns adds: "There's a spiraling dynamic here: Many competent [Republicans] don't want to work in the [White House] for reasons including aversion to scandal, so they end up hiring staff that doesn't share that aversion, end up with more scandal, and have an even harder time hiring competent people than at the start."

Price rises begin to cool
- UK milk output is well behind last year. At the end of June 2022, the UK is already 64.28m litres down on 2021
- UK milk prices remain buoyant as high farmgate prices continue to be driven by soaring production Producer margins remain fine.
- Although some farmgate prices have increased for August 2022, there are signs that retailers are unwilling to raise milk prices much further.
The latest milk production statistics from AHDB for June 2022 indicate that output for the month is estimated at 1,273.11m litres (before butterfat adjustment) – a reduction of 25.55m litres compared against June 2021. Cumulative production for the 2022/23 milk year to the end of June 2022 stands at 3,994.16m litres (before butterfat adjustment), which is 64.28m litres down on the same period last year.
The latest figures available from AHDB show that the average UK milk price for May 2022 is estimated at 40.39ppl. Several milk buyers increased their farmgate milk prices during June and July and the data relating to these milk price increases is still being collated by AHDB. During the June/July period, most farmgate milk prices have been sitting around 42.00 – 46.00ppl.
Farmgate prices: August 2022
The main price changes for August 2022 shown below:
- Arla direct supplies – 59ppl price increase confirmed from 1st August 2022. The liquid standard litre for direct suppliers is set to increase from 43.44ppl to 45.03ppl.
- Arla Foods amba – members will receive a 1.0-euro cents increase from 1st August 2022. This equates to an increase of 0.86ppl for the liquid standard litre which lifts the farmgate milk price from 47.56ppl to 48.42ppl. The manufacturing standard litre (4.2%BF & 3.40% protein) increases by 0.90ppl from 49.45ppl to 35ppl.
- Arla Foods organic – Organic suppliers will also receive the same 1.00-euro cents increase which takes the liquid standard litre up to 53.87ppl and the manufacturing standard litre up to 01ppl.
- Müller Direct – No change to the Müller Direct milk price for August 2022, following a 4.50ppl increase in July 2022. See Milk Price table.
- Fresh Milk Company – 00ppl increase confirmed from 1st August 2022. This takes the liquid standard litre price up to 46.40ppl (see Milk Price table below). The manufacturing standard litre price increases by 1.04ppl to 48.25ppl.
- First Milk – FM milk price will increase by 05ppl from 1st August 2022. See Milk Price table, below.
- Graham’s Dairies – 2.00ppl increase confirmed from 1st August 2022. This takes the liquid standard litre price up to 46.00ppl for August
- Sainsburys (SDDG) – 1.00ppl increase confirmed from 1st August 2022. The price increase means that Müller members of the SDDG will see their price move up to 47.00ppl for the liquid standard litre, whilst Arla members will see prices move up to 88ppl.
- Co-op – 0.33ppl increase confirmed from 1st With the July 2022 Coop milk price having increased by 2.65ppl due to the Coop milk price tracking Sainsburys (SDDG) and Tesco (TSDG) milk prices, the latest 0.33ppl increase for August means that the liquid standard litre price for August 2022 moves up to 46.33ppl.
Wholesale prices begin to level off
Reduction to Tesco cost of production
Although the Tesco milk price will continue to track the Müller Direct milk price during August (45.75ppl in Scotland), the retailer has given a signal of intent by announcing that the cost of milk production reduced by 0.32ppl during July 2022 to 42.59ppl. Whilst the Tesco (TSDG) milk price continues to mirror the Müller Direct for now, this latest announcement suggests that a downward movement to the TSDG milk price may be imminent. Ultimately there is a limit to how much the consumer is prepared to pay for milk and this latest announcement from Tesco suggests that the retailer would prefer to see a lower price level.

Home Again -July 2011
by: Hana Schuster
Barbara Capizzo’s newest body of work at The Sosebee Galleries reflects the warm and sunny tones of the Mediterranean, and is a gift to the island community, which gave her husband, legendary high-school football coach Vito Capizzo, a trip to his native Sicily, upon his retirement in 2009.
Barbara Capizzo is best known for her soft and romantic watercolors and oil paintings of Nantucket landscapes, but recently she has turned her attention to the landscapes of her husband’s native Italy. From small coastal towns to sprawling mountain vil- lages, Capizzo manages to capture the quaint beauty of the Italian countryside and leisurely pace of everyday life.
When Capizzo’s husband, legendary football coach Vito Capizzo, retired from coaching after 45 years and nearly 300 wins, the island community banded together to give him a party and a retire- ment gift of a 14-day trip to Italy, including a visit to his hometown of Salemi, Sicily. Until his retirement in September 2009, Capizzo had been the coach of the Nantucket Whalers high school football team, and not only did he rack up the third most wins in state history, but established formative bonds with countless students and members of the Nantucket community, pushing youngsters to work hard for their accomplishments. Many of those he inspired and befriended chipped in to send the couple to Vito’s childhood stomping grounds in Italy.
“I was even more excited (about the trip) than he was,” said Barbara, who, after marrying an Italian, hoped to travel there one day. Capizzo said her husband, however, had never expressed much interest in returning to his homeland.
“I tried to nudge him by giving him books about Italy for his birthday or holidays, thinking it might spark an interest in him,” she said, but after many failed attempts, Capizzo was resigned to the fact that she would likely never get to see the country where her husband was born.
Thrilled to finally have the opportunity she had been waiting for, Capizzo and her husband departed for Italy in May 2010, visiting Rome, Venice, Florence, Tuscany and Pompeii on their way to Sicily. Despite leaving his hometown at just 10 years old, memories of the area and the time he spent there came rushing back to Vito while they walked the streets of Salemi.
“I really saw his childhood,” Barbara said. “It was wonderful to watch everything come back to him so easily.
The two were so moved by the Nantucket community’s gesture that the Capizzos felt compelled to share their experiences abroad with those who had made them possible.
“I immediately envisioned this show,” said Capizzo of her upcoming exhibit. “So many people contributed to make this possible for us, so I wanted to share the trip with them afterward somehow.”
Capizzo has succeeded in capturing the landscapes, towns and communities of Italy through the use of vibrant colors and a deft hand. Despite the dramatically different geography, fans of her Nantucket paintings will not be disappointed by Capizzo’s new series, as she used similar styles and techniques to those in her previous work: a mix of Impressionism and Realism with bold, expressive colors and balanced composition. While abroad, Capizzo took photos of what she intended to paint, gravitating toward buildings, waterfront scenes and images of everyday life.
“I don’t like painting what everyone else paints,” Capizzo said, justi- fying her decision to depict a small huddle of whispering police officers and a chestnut vendor in the streets of Florence rather than famous build- ings such as the Romanesque Palazzo Vecchio, or the many statues by Michelangelo and Donatello that lined the same city square.
Yet, anyone who is familiar with her Nantucket pieces knows that through the depiction of everyday subjects, Capizzo is able to visually represent the culture and community of a place.
Despite adhering to her usual styles and subjects, Capizzo found her- self challenged by the unfamiliar surroundings.
“Dealing with a new location, the problems I encountered were very different,” said Capizzo. Because she had grown so familiar with the shapes of the boats in Nantucket Harbor, the gondolas of Venice posed a new challenge and forced her out of her comfort zone.
“They curve so differently. I wasn’t used to seeing boats like that,” she said. “Even the skies are different, and the colors and the architecture. Everything is so different from anything I’ve seen in the U.S.,” Capizzo said. “It was difficult sometimes but very refreshing.”
While Capizzo used the photographs she had taken as reference points for her paintings, she often altered the images in order to create more enlightening compositions that would translate more easily for viewers of her art, yet still be representational of what she saw. For the artist, turn- ing her photos into paintings was akin to visiting Italy all over again.
“I’d paint and be right back there,” she said.
Debbie Sosebee, co-owner of the Sosebee Galleries on Old South Wharf, agreed to exhibit Capizzo’s new series without having seen a single painting.
“I always have confidence in Barbara’s work. She really knows how to capture the atmosphere of places,” Sosebee said. “She was my daughter’s sixth-grade art teacher. I know her well and know what she’s capable of. I knew she would do an incredible job.”
Capizzo’s paintings will be the first to be displayed at the Sosebee Gallery that are not of Nantucket. This didn’t seem to worry the gallery owner in the least, however.
“I thought painting Italy was a great idea,” Sosebee said. “It was an expe- rience that was meaningful to her, which really shows through in the paint- ings. As an artist, sometimes you need a fresh start once in a while. You need new inspiration. I think it was an important thing for her to do.”
With under 20 paintings being displayed, the exhibit is very manage- able for newcomers to Capizzo’s work, yet still enchanting for the most seasoned connoisseurs.
An opening reception for Capizzo’s exhibit will be held Friday, July 8 from 6-8 p.m. There should be ample opportunity to chat with Barbara and Vito, who will be dutifully tending the bar, as he has done at each of his wife’s previous openings.
Hana Schuster, a longtime summer resident of Nantucket, is a recent graduate of Washington University in St. Louis and is now a reporter for The Inquirer and Mirror, Nantucket’s newspaper since 1821.

The Train to Orvieto
It is 1935. Willa Carver, 20, has left her home in Erhart, Ohio, and is traveling to Florence, Italy, with her chaperone and hostess, Signora Farnese. On the train, they meet an Italian soldier, Gabriele Marcheschi, who notices Willa is drawing his picture and has asked to buy it.
"A thousand lire. Very well, but half of the fee has to be paid in advance," Willa said to him.
"Is that how they do it in America?" the soldier replied.
"Yes." My first Italian commission! I must write to Maestro Ottaviani and tell him, she thought.
"In Italy, we pay only if we like the result." He stood up and worked his wallet out of his back pocket with his good hand. "Since you are an American, I will make an exception." He counted out a thousand lire.
Signora Farnese put her hand between them. "No. She does not accept money from...." Before she could say more, Willa took the note and put it in her purse.
"See how impractical you are?" the soldier said to Willa. "You didn't even look at it. How do you know it's the right amount?"
He seems pleased, as if he won a competition, Willa thought.
"I know it's double what we said. What else do I need to know?" In an effort to restore some formality between them she pointed to a place next to the window. "If you will sit over there, please." He didn't move.
"I would have paid you even more, but you didn't bargain with me. Very impractical!"
Despite Signora Farnese's disapproving look, Willa took the bait. "You're mistaken. I didn't need to bargain with you because you gave me twice what I asked. Besides, you don't know whether I can draw or not, so it's you who's impractical." Signora Farnese shook her head and took refuge in a book on Italian art. "Please, move where the light is better," Willa said again, but the soldier refused.
"Draw!" He waved his hand like a monarch. "I want to watch you work."
"You'll make me self-conscious."
"You say you're an artist. I paid for my portrait, so you must do this portrait the way I wish. Ask your...mother?"
"What do you think?" Willa asked Signora Farnese.
"I think you made a mistake to take the money in the first place, but now that you've accepted it, you'll have to draw whatever pose he requests or return the money." Signora Farnese resumed reading her book.
"Don't talk," Willa told him. She took out a hard pencil first and began to block the key points of his shape, aligning his proportions withe the length of her pencil as Maestro Ottaviani had taught her to do. She changed to a softer lead to note the curved lines of his body under the fabric of his uniform, the thrust of the jaw, the slight indentation where the mandible met the ear, then followed the line of the long, smooth nose, the outward bulge of his eyelids, the rounded darkness of the iris itself, erasing in the white highlight. Moving to the mouth, she traced the full upper lip, the slight smile, the thinner lower lip, and then the hair, which curled around his face like smoke. She followed the line of his sturdy torso to the left ankle resting on the right knee, ending in the left foot thrust toward her, his left hand on his knee, solid and firm. She traced the passage of each finger, erasing, changing, and correcting the angles of the knuckles. Does this drawing have life? she asked herself. What would Maestro Ottaviano say?
The soldier looked soft, yet fierce; kindly, but capable of slaying gorgons. She smudged the gentle edges of his mouth and dug her pencil into the paper in the places where she wanted to emphasize his strength.
"Do you always draw like you're trying to kill something?" he asked.
"I'm Gabriele Marcheschi and I live in Orvieto." He lifted his arm from the sling, leaned toward her. "I'm going home to get well."
She glanced at him. "What happened to your arm?"
"Un incidente." An accident. He made a rolling motion with his good hand. "In Ethiopia, the truck I was driving overturned near Addis Ababa. I went to join the Italian forces. My arm is broken in three places. He pointed to his upper arm, then to just below his elbow, and to his wrist, his eyes on her.
Willa looked down at her work. "Perhaps you're not such a good driver," she said as she erased an area that troubled her. "You should be more careful." She heard his quick intake of breath.
"But I was almost killed!" He sounded affronted. Have I said something wrong? she wondered. "I am not careless or weak," he continued. "I am ready to die for my country." He put his good hand on his chest. "I was never afraid." He reached into his pocket and took out a medallion attached to a crumpled purple ribbon. "Look." He put the medallion on her sketchbook and leaned closer, pointed to the inscription. "It says 'for bravery and courage in battle.'"
"I'm sorry about your arm. Does it still hurt?" Willa said. She handed the medal to Signora Farnese, who returned it to the soldier.
"I don't know if I'll ever be able to work again." His expression included sadness, remorse, and self-pity. Willa found the contradiction of his rough exterior and sentimentality appealing in a romantic way. He seems overly dramatic, she thought. After all, isn't he here and alive and evidently quite well?
"What does your doctor say?" Signora Farnese asked.
"Signora, in Orvieto we had three doctors. One was my brother who was killed in the same accident. Crushed under the truck. He died instantly. The other fellow, also a doctor...his foot was nearly cut off. They took him to the same hospital where they took me. Gangrene set in. He became a hung of rotten meat. He knew he was dying and he cried for his mother the whole time. Death is a terrible thing." He watched Willa, assessing the effect of his words. "Now there is only one doctor left for all of Orvieto: Dr. Lucarelli who knows only herbs."
Willa looked out the window at the parched hills thinking of boys back home, boys like Chip and Eddie. Just then, they—and Gabriele Marcheschi, too—seemed beautiful to her, and the idea of their being in a war seemed tragic.
"Mussolini restores our greatness like a Caesar," Gabriele continued, "but this is why there is no doctor for my arm in Orvieto." He shrugged. Did he regard this, too, as a matter of fate?
"If I were you, I'd go where they had doctors," Willa said, glad that she would be an artist in a city with real doctors.
"You mean you would go somewhere for just such a small thing as a doctor? Why would I leave my home, my family's podere?" Gabriele replied. "I'm the only son left and I must always care for the land of my family. Our vineyards. Our crops. Our tenants."
"I think a good arm is more important than a piece of land," Willa said. "How could I be an artist without my arm? How could you take care of your family's land without yours?"
Gabriele shook his head. "Without my land, how could I be a man? If you saw how beautiful my family's land in Orvieto is, you wouldn't say that."
"I would too say it. I'd say it no matter what," Willa said.
"This is how you think?" he said. She nodded, erasing a line. "You must be an American to leave your home for such a foolish reason."
"That's not why I left," she said, carefully redrawing the line. "I left because I'm going to be a painter."
"They don't have painters in America?"
"Not in Erhart, Ohio."
"So people in Ohio, Erhart, would leave the land of their fathers and grandfathers just to be painters, too?"
"Erhart, Ohio. Yes," she said, "we would." He shook his head at the incomprehensibility of her decision.
The conductor entered their compartment. Signora Farnese gave him their tickets and excused herself. One of Willa's pencils rolled off the seat and onto the floor. Both she and Gabriele reached for it. He put his hand around hers and pressed his medal into her palm. Willa pulled away and tried to give the medal back.
"A gift from your new friend, Gabriele Marcheschi." He took the medal and put it on her sketchbook.
"You can't give me this medal." She handed it back to him. "I don't know you."
"You know me well enough to take my money for a portrait." He fingered the medal. "So now you must tell me your name." It was true, she thought. She would have to tell him her name when she signed the drawing. She looked out through the window of the compartment door. Signora Farnese was nowhere in sight.
"Willa." She pushed a long strand of hair away from her face. "Willa Carver."
Gabriele stood up, bowed slightly, and removed his cap with his left hand and put it on the seat. His dark curls tumbled over his forehead. He held out his hand, and she shook it. "So now we are friends, Willa Carver."

We had the meeting as scheduled from 8th to 10th Oct 2013 at CBCM, Yangon. The resource persons were: Bishop Yvon Ambroise, Bishop of Tuticorin, India, former director of Caritas-Asia; Fr. Raymond Ambroise, Executive Secretary, FABC-OSC; Fr. Franz-Josef Eilers, SVD, former Executive Secretary, FABC-OSC; Fr. Amalraj sj from the Jesuit Community in Yangon and Fr. Gabriel Htun Myint, RVA-Program Director, Philippines was our facilitator: Diocesan directors, 5 Bishops and 15 Social Communications directors and RVA Myanmar services program cooperators participated in the meeting.
The meeting started with analyzing concretely the current problems of Emerging Myanmar society which the Church should address through the Communication Apostolate. We perceived Myanmar as a society in transition with globalization tendencies fostered by corporate companies as a major force which plays an invisible hand in regulating the day to day life. We also realized that a new fundamentalist force is emerging through a section of Buddhists who say: one nation, one religion, one culture, one language and one people in a country where there are many ethnic groups.
We also met with the Creative Cultural Artists Group with lay Catholic artists who for the first time prepared a multi-cultural musical program on Jesus of Nazareth and enacted it for the first time in Yangon National Theatre houseful with thousands attending for 2 days. Fr. Eilers appreciated and encouraged such ventures in the future.
Fr. Eilers, based on his experience and expertise in Communication Apostolate, then presented his vision of pastoral communication apostolate for Myanmar. He suggested that the national structure for Communication Office should be three faceted: Interpersonal/Cultural Section, Media Section and Social Networks Section which would become a reality in the next 3 to 5 years. Fr. Eilers also cautioned that the Communication Apostolate should not be an isolated entity and one among many offices in Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Myanmar but animate all the offices of CBCM because Communication is a dimension of life and should permeate all other offices. He cited the recent interview of Pope Francis about this. Bishop Yvon added his analysis and clarified the role of culture in society. Fr. Raymond Ambroise spoke about the implications of RVA becoming an internet radio and how the language services can enrich their services.
There was a strong recommendation that the Creative Artists Association Myanmar which is a lay initiative and which has proved its capacity recently should be popularized offering training and developing such cultural programs in all ethnical groups. There is a need to develop a think tank for the content of all media program so that Nation Building efforts are strengthened and neo-fascist efforts are exposed to make people critically aware of it and act accordingly.
The National Office should be developed with these perspectives in mind switch the National Director at the helm of developing communication, permeating and inspiring all the other Commissions. We also contacted BBC Media Action, Yangon and Myanmar Egress which are conducting many training programs on media and they are willing to train our personnel. The diocesan directors will be asked to participate in these meetings and the National Office will co-ordinate.

The EU leaders will be forced to respect public opposition to mass #migration and concern over terrorism threats in 2018, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said after meeting in Bavaria, Germany.
Meeting the Christian Social Union (CSU)’s parliamentary group in Bavaria, the Hungarian leader told reporters that #migration has become a “problem” for democracy in Europe because “leaders in many places are not doing what the people want them to.”
“Europeans have a clear will,” Orbán said during joint press conference. “They don’t want to live under the threat of terrorism, they want security, they want their borders to be protected.”
“I told our Bavarian friends that I believe 2018 will be the year of the restoration of the will of the people in Europe,” he said.
Orban said that he can only speak for the Hungarian people, and they don’t want any migration. “In my understanding, it’s not possible for the people to have a will on a fundamental issue and for the government not to comply with it.”
He denied that most refugees come to Europe because they are fleeing dangerous conditions at home, but because they want to take advantage of economic opportunities.

Conspiracies, anecdotes, no substitute for analysis
STATE policies should have a basis in concrete reality. But in some quarters, there’s a disturbing push to legislate based on anecdotes or even conspiracy theories.
Consider a recent Owasso forum focused on education. At that event, some attendees complained about a new law requiring retention of third-grade students who read at only a first-grade level or lower, based on state tests. The fact that children should be taught to read should be obvious, yet the law still has detractors.
Rep. Jadine Nollan, R-Sand Springs, has filed legislation to allow parents, teachers and local school board members to socially promote students even when tests show a child is far behind classmates. Nollan’s argument for her bill rested, in part, on an anecdote. “I had a third-grader in my district who threw up on her test,” Nollan said. “This is an 8-year-old.”
Think about that: The justification given for changing a major state law is that a single child out of roughly 50,000 third-grade students in Oklahoma once vomited during testing. The law of averages suggests this scenario happens at schools every day across Oklahoma, regardless of whether testing is ongoing. That child could have simply been sick, or other factors may have induced stress. Yet that isolated instance is pointed to as justification for watering down efforts to teach children to read.
Under the reading law, students who don’t pass the state test can prove proficiency through six alternative methods. One speaker at the Owasso event claimed a local school was now requiring all students to develop such portfolios, diverting resources from instructional time, based on the idea that most children at the school were going to flunk the state reading test.
But that’s not an argument for repealing the reading law, any more than the story of the single sick child. Instead, the story illustrates the need for local parents in that district — and especially school board members — to hold administrators accountable for such an egregious waste of time and resources.
Legislation by anecdote is bad; calls to change state laws in response to conspiracy theories are worse. In a recent missive, Bunny Chambers, an Oklahoma official with the Eagle Forum, decries Common Core academic standards, claiming supporters like former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush are “liberals who want to ‘dumb down America’s children’ so they will be followers rather than leaders; so our children won’t need to decide on an occupation — the government will direct them where to work; and the government can collect all the data on our children that is needed to control them.” She then claims many Republicans have “bought into the whole idea just as Hilliary (sic) Clinton and Marc Tucker planned back in 1992!” before urging readers to contact state lawmakers and urge the standards’ repeal.
Are there drawbacks to the third-grade reading law outweighing its benefits? Fine — point them out and propose alternative methods that would better increase literacy. Are Common Core academic standards flawed? Then point out specific problems and recommend concrete alternatives.
But to demand that lawmakers vote to thwart hypothetical conspiracies or legislate based on second-hand stories that may not be even tangentially related to any state policies would not only drive Oklahoma off the path of progress, but steer it into a ditch filled with the detritus of chaos and paranoia.

The thinking approach of a person constructs the character of that person. If there is complexity in the thinking the character will also be a complex and intricate one. If the thinking is simple and straight forward the life of such person is simple. If the thinking is superficial, the life will be shallow and if there is depth in the approach then the person will be a man of profound deliberation who can contemplate in depth for exploring the reality. God has indicated this approach of thinking in the story of Ibrahim, as stated in the Holy Quran. Thinking of one single person is different than a multitude of hundreds of thousand people and there is depth and realism in it.
It has been indicated in the story of Hazrat Ibrahim that one can have a different approach in spite of one’s living with the people of typical thinking. Now this gives rise to an interesting question that from where was this realistic approach of thinking transferred to Ibrahim, when it was found nowhere in the surroundings. The answer is not very difficult. The realistic approach of thinking is an innate trait of everyone but everyone does not use it.
Idolaters asked Ibrahim, ‘Who demolished the gods?’
Ibrahim responded, ‘Ask your gods’.
People knew that the idols cannot exercise their will and they can be smashed up but still the realism did not stir in them. The manner in which changes are induced and incorporated in the thinking approach of a person, who is journeying on the paths of spiritual associability, by the mentor, is that in his conversations he gradually points out those things which are either not existing in the surroundings or the people are unaware of their existence. The mentor instills in his students that which is hypothetical, cannot be reality. He also establishes that though man considers himself worthy of controlling things but he has no control of any type in his life. He cannot exercise any choice regarding his birth. After birth he keeps on growing involuntarily. After youth, despite having no wish, he grows old. No single person of the world wants to die but anyone who comes into this world must expire. Man can control the diet but he cannot live without taking food. One cannot live his whole life without drinking water. One cannot remain awake for months or for weeks. All these are those things which are adhering with everyone, ‘for all times. Moments change into seconds, seconds into minutes, minutes into hours, hours into days and nights, days into months and months into years and this change is that variation which no sane person can deny. After pointing out all these changes the mentor explains that there is someone who is controlling the strings of these changes. When the spiritual associate is made to observe all these things day in and day out which are covered by a veil for the people of materialistic approach, his mind automatically turns towards that one who is controlling the strings of changes and variations.
This seed of the thinking approach is sown by the mentor in the mind of the student which is then nurtured and looked after by him. He introduces his student with those sages whose approach of thinking is exemplary with respect to realism. He, for instance, with his spiritual influence causes his student to witness that realm, in his dreams, where Auliya and prophets are residing. Repetition of this experience tones his thinking approach and he gets closer to the thinking approach of Auliyas and prophets.
The mentor installs a pair of spectacles over the inner eye of his student. The spectacles show only that which is in conformity with the thinking approach of the mentor. When the student starts seeing through these spectacles he sees the world from the view-point of his mentor. Through spectacles one sees only that color which is the color of the glasses. If the glasses are pink every thing witnessed through them would appear pink and if they are blue everything would become blue. If they are opaque or translucent, objects will not be sighted clearly. And, if the glasses are blind one won’t be able to see through them despite straining and having his eyes open.
The color of the glasses, in fact, is like the thinking approach of a person. If the glasses are clear one can see the objects of far off distance whereas if the glasses are blind, one will not be able to see even that which one can see without using the glasses. Whichever type of glasses of thinking pattern are used the same thinking pattern will become operative in man.
The ability to find out the actual structural formation and value of things, by observing and contemplating is present in everyone, but we do not know how to make use of these abilities. Since the spiritual teacher knows the art of using these abilities and he has built his own life by contemplation therefore when the characteristics and abilities of the mentor are transferred to the spiritual associate the seed of thinking pattern and contemplation sown in his mind by the mentor gradually grows into a tall tree. The only thing which hinders the growth of seed into a tree is man’s own personal will and his intellect. When a person allows his self to guide him and considers the intellect everything then his success becomes impossible because the conscious and intellect operative in him are related to that thinking approach in which there is neither any depth nor any realism.

Besides the BMW Active Tourer 2 eDrive, the brand to the propeller unveiled two prototypes operator a familiar BMW technology . fuel cells
BMW chose the days of the 2015 innovation to present two motorized prototypes with this technology, one based on a reworked BMW i8 at aerodynamics and the other on a BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo.
No detail was available about the BMW i8 but it is assumed that it uses some of the same guts as the BMW 5 Series Gran Turismo. The latter is powered by an electric motor which draws its 245ch source of a fuel cell jointly developed with Toyota. One can imagine that she has a family relationship with that of the Mirai. There is also a high voltage battery for storage and feeding of other electronic components
BMW also states that this BMW 5 Series GT has an operating range of more than 500km and whose hydrogen refueling takes less than five minutes. The reservoir is located between the front and rear in the transmission tunnel. The Munich brand explains that the reservoir has a technology enabling low temperature storage for 350bars pressure.
Another point to note, BMW took the opportunity to unveil a prototype BMW 1 Series using direct water injection. Already interview on the M4 BMW Safety Car of MotoGP, this technology arrives on an engine turbocharged 3-cylinder gasoline.
The direct injection of water has a cooling effect on the engine for better performance (+ 10% power and torque) and better consumer fuel (-8%). This technology also allows better engine operation (higher compression ratio and less risk of knocking)

Council agrees budget that focuses on investment and growth
05 February 2018
Derry City and Strabane District Council today agreed its budget for the 2018/19 financial year with a commitment to further invest in capital development and invest in growth and investment projects across the City and District.
The increase of 2.99% to the District Rate has been struck despite a range of statutory pressures that Council has successfully absorbed to ensure the increase represents significant investment in growth across the City and District as outlined in the Council’s Inclusive Strategic Growth Plan.
The increase will allow the Council to continue with its very impressive capital development investment plans that include its new Strategic Leisure Capital plan for Templemore and Strabane, the ongoing development of parks and greenways, investment in new community centres, as well as continued investment in festival and events, community services, jobs and skills.
To date almost £35m has been spent by the new Council on a range of capital projects across all services including £1.39m on new community centres, £11.92m parks and greenways, £12.6m on sports and leisure provision and £8.26m on other projects. A further £63m of projects are progressing with full funding secured including the Brandywell Stadium redevelopment (£7m), Melvin 3G (£1.4m), 3 cross border greenway projects (€20m) and a range of other parks, greenways, community centres and pitches projects.
This year’s rates increase will ensure further Council funding of £20m- £25m is available to leverage external capital funding to drive forward our ambitious capital plan.
In addition to the inflation rate of 3.1%, the Council is having to absorb a number of statutory pressures including pay awards and pension costs, central government cuts, including the very disappointing continued reduction of the Rates Support Grant.
Following the agreement last year of a two-year funding package for the City of Derry Airport, there is no proposed increase to the annual subvention budget.
Mayor of Derry City and Strabane District Council Cllr Maolíosa McHugh, welcoming the new budget and the commitment to invest in growth across the Council area, said he particularly welcomed the Council’s commitment to invest in jobs and skills.
“In keeping with the strong emphasis on education and skills in our Inclusive Strategic Growth Plan I am very pleased to see an additional £200k investment to assist in creating a better skilled and educated workforce and improve our young people’s attainment levels. I am very pleased to see the positive impact our investment in growth has had to date and the ongoing commitment to continue to invest and to drive efficiencies so that we can continue to invest in our capital plan, our community services provision, festivals and events.
He welcomed the fact that the Council’s ongoing investment over the years has resulted in the growth of its rates base particularly among non-domestic properties and contributed to a fall in unemployment levels across the City and District.
Council Chief Executive, John Kelpie said the £500k investment in Council’s capital plan is a critical part of the Council’s 5-year plan to ensure Council’s key strategic capital projects can be funded. To date, the Council has delivered £34.36m of capital projects in the past three years and a further £63m of projects in progress and totally funded.
He said that among the significant investment projects earmarked for advancement and delivery were the advancement of a number of major exciting projects including the completion of business cases and detailed designs for our new leisure facilities in Templemore and Strabane, the progression of €20m worth of cross border greenway developments and the advancement of a feasibility study and costing for Strabane Town Centre footbridge in partnership with Central Government, as well as advancing with a range of community centre developments and the development of business cases for major regeneration schemes for Derry’s City Centre and Strabane town centre.
“Three years since the establishment of the new Council and the organisation has to date identified and realised significant efficiencies of almost £2.3m to assist with the delivery of our significant capital aspirations and the objectives and targets set out in the Strategic Inclusive Growth Plan. This along with new rates investment by the new Council has grown our growth fund of £3.165m and enabled reinvestment into a number of areas including our capital plan, major events and festivals, including the Foyle Maritime Festival and the return of the Clipper Round the World Race this summer, investment in tourism initiatives and community services.”
Referring to very disappointing Central Government budget cuts imposed on Council as part of the rates process, John Kelpie said these cuts continued to curtail Councils such as Derry City and Strabane District Council, with lower rates-bases and higher levels of deprivation to invest in the development of their districts, taking millions of pounds of investment out of seven of the 11 Councils. He said lobbying to get these cuts reversed would, however, remain a key priority for the Council moving forward.
John Kelpie added that working in partnership with partners and Government departments to deliver on the objectives and targets of the Strategic Inclusive Growth Plan is key to the development of the region and will lead to the creation of over 10,000 new jobs in the Council area over the next 10 years, see a reduction in unemployment levels to below the Northern Ireland average and ultimately improve the wealth, prosperity and general well-being of citizens.
He added: “We remain committed to advance with our City Deal proposals and have provided a strong case for investment in the catalyst projects that will drive our plan forward which include the expansion of Ulster University at Magee and the increase of students there and at the North West Regional and associated investment in skills and pathways to employment, as well as working to enhance our connectivity through the progression of the A5, the A6 and A2, as well as the development of our Airport and Port.”
Alfie Dallas, lead finance officer with the Council said that while setting the rates was a challenging process, particularly in light of the extreme Central Government budget cuts imposed, he was confident that the Council’s ongoing commitment to investment in growth and development was key if the Council is to achieve its targets of improving the wealth, prosperity and well-being of the citizens living and working in the City and District.
“It is very clear from this year’s rates budget process that the investment made by this Council over the past few years is paying dividends in terms of rate-base growth, employment and tourism numbers and the continued investment in growth is critical to achieve our objectives set out in the Strategic Inclusive Growth Plan. It is critical that this investment is now accompanied by the required Central Government investment to deliver the catalyst projects required to transform our City Region”
He added that the district rate increase will mean an average increase of £13.10 per annum or 25 pence per week to the average domestic ratepayer, adding that this year’s budget was built on the continued growth of our domestic and non-domestic rates base and the significant work that has been done to secure £2.289m in efficiency savings.
Council Chief Executive John Kelpie concluded: “Council will continue to prioritise the objectives and targets set out in our Strategic Growth Plan by working in close partnership with our stakeholders and Government departments to proceed with our plans to secure a City Growth Deal for the city and region that would provide strong partnership intervention and the strategically focused local investment needed to successfully continue the transformation of the economic fortunes of the region.”
The Mayor concluded by acknowledging the work carried out by officers and members to agree a rate saying he was looking forward to working with them and its partners, including the community and voluntary sector, government agencies, statutory agencies and the business community to work collectively to bring investment and jobs to the City and District.

It is widely acknowledged that Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) is not only a brilliant humorist, playwright, and fiction writer but a distinguished story teller for children. Many of his fairy tales, such as “The Happy Prince,” “The Selfish Giant,” and “The Young King” have long become canons in Children’s Literature. Due to its great important and influence, Wilde’s fairy tales have been translated into Chinese by many translators. However, Wilde’s tales, featuring his frequent use of figurative language, his sensitivity to (non-)human emotions and interactions, unique juxtaposition of words and syntax, and extensive allusion to myths and legends, prove to be challenging for many translators. This difficulty is evidenced by Ba Jin’s (巴金) (1904-2005), a prestigious Chinese writer and translator, comment that, although he had the idea of translating Wilde’s stories long ago, the work did not come into being until twenty years later because he was so intimidated by the delicate style and the musical language used in Wilde’s texts and was afraid he was not up to the task. In addition to Ba Jin, Lin Hui Yin (林徽因), a famous architect and writer in the 20th century, was smitten by Wilde’s stories and translated some into Chinese. Unlike Ba Jin, whose translation tends to be literal and faithful, Lin’s rendition appears more lyrical and personal. Reading Ba Jin’s and Lin Hui Yin’s renditions of Wilde’s “The Nightingale and the Rose,” this paper discusses Ba’s and Lin’s translation strategies, their individual insights and drawbacks, and the implications.

With fewer growth opportunities for growth in its domestic and international business, it’s not surprising that Starbucks is looking to grow its branded food and beverage offering for grocery.
One just has to look at the US$300-million a year success story of its Via instant coffee to see the potential of the market.
Starbucks’ product lineup is said to be targeting health and wellness, with rollout expected over the next two years.
A focus on its consumer products would lead to more profitable margins than its core retail business with estimates of Starbucks’ consumer products division generating operating margins of 30 to 35 per cent; U.S. retail margins are close to 20 per cent this year.
To further his mission to get into the grocery channel, Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz has taken over the shipping of its packaged coffee to supermarkets from Kraft Food Inc.
More recently, taking advantage of the fast-growing single-brew or K-cup systems, Schultz signed on with Green Mountain Coffee Roasters to sells its branded coffee and tea for use in Green Mountain’s Keurig single-cup machines in its own stores and other U.S. and Canadian retailers this fall.
This latest move by the java giant is seen as a serious push into consumer products, with analysts believing Starbucks could reinvent packaged coffee goods. Starbucks has gone as far as to hire Procter & Gamble executives and others from similar packaged goods companies.
Still Starbucks faces an uphill battle in stealing away shelf space from other supermarket coffee brands, including private labels.

Listened to the radio this morning, to a man talking about a dead relative’s valuable book collection. He started off by thinking that the book collection defined the man. He ended up, as he disposed of it, item by item, thinking that what we possess is easily lost, easily disposed of. It cannot define us. This is a somewhat liberating thought. I may well start de-cluttering with a less heavy heart. Incidentally, he remembered, not the collections , but the harsh words by this relative.

I'm looking to get a cheap laptop. I need it in the next few days. I'm looking at under $500 CAD. And I don't want to order online.

I played the demo and enjoyed it.
If I didn't have so many games to play right now I'd buy it probably. But until then, I think I'm gonna wait for a weekend deal. I love it when games are built off of Source engine!
When you consider the rigs that PC Game Reviewers probably use to judge a game, of course GTA IV would do very well.
Most GTA IV PC users probably did not have as good as a PC, therefore performance sucked and they give it a poor review.
I really enjoyed the game. Played it through in just a few days. And I agree that the cinematic are great, however the run a tad too long in my taste.
But then again, I enjoyed MGS's cut scenes so maybe its just me.
Well, official Steam games such as Counterstrike: Source, Team Fortress 2, and Left 4 Dead all have great anti-cheat measures (so long as you play on a "VAC Enabled" server),
Although in any Valve package you won't get anything in terms of military or war-type games. I would suggest maybe...

I thought the first CoJ was pretty good. The kid platforming levels kind of sucked, because FPS platforming is well...kind of stupid.

Angels, Trout agree to six-year, $144.5 million deal
LOS ANGELES — After spending most of the spring negotiating with outfielder Mike Trout, the Angels finally have a deal on a six-year contract extension with their young star.
Ken Rosenthal of FOX Sports confirmed that Trout’s deal is worth $144.5 million. It will take him through his salary arbitration years and the first three years of free agency. The average yearly salary will be almost $24.1 million.
The deal reportedly includes a no-trade clause.
Trout can become a free agent at the end of the contract, when he’s 29.
The Angels, who announced the deal Friday night, have scheduled a news conference for Saturday at 1:30 p.m. during their "Fiesta Angels" event in the Angel Stadium parking lot. The Angels and Dodgers close out their Freeway Series at 6 p.m.
Trout missed Friday’s game at Dodger Stadium because of the flu and was not at the ballpark. He’s expected to attend the announcement along with his parents and Angels owner Arte Moreno.
Trout avoided any discussion about his contract this spring, but he signed a one-year deal for $1 million in February.
— Los Angeles Angels (@Angels) March 29, 2014
His first two seasons in the major leagues clearly earned him a massive contract, and his deal comes in the wake of the eight-year, $248-million extension the Detroit Tigers awarded Miguel Cabrera this week.
Trout was MVP runner-up to Cabrera the past two seasons, although it could be argued his statistical impact was greater. He hit .326 in 2012 and .323 last season and is one of just four players in baseball history to hit at least .320 with 50 home runs and 200 runs scored in his first two full seasons, joining Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams and teammate Albert Pujols.
Trout also led the majors the past two seasons in WAR (wins above replacement), becoming only the eighth player with a 10.0 WAR in back-to-back seasons.
