New Double CD features Derek Warfield & The Young Wolfe Tones
Derek Warfield’s tribute to Irish popular song & music culture.
The singer regarded by many as Ireland’s greatest living balladeer, Derek Warfield, has just released a new double CD “On The One Road” a mixture of classic Irish songs and music with his new band, The Young Wolfe Tones.
The album was officially launched in Ireland on St Patrick’s Day, 17th March, and Derek says he hopes people will find lots to love in a collection which features many of the most popular songs in the Irish tradition, from older songs of rebellion like ‘The Foggy Dew’, ‘The Mountains of Pomeroy’ to present day favourites such as ‘Streets of New York’.
After 45 years on the road as a singer, many of them in the frontline with the legendary Wolfe Tones, Derek says he’s still excited about the new release.
“It’s a celebration of our popular Irish song culture in the company of some fabulous musicians and singers,” he says. “Sometimes there’s an inclination to take these songs for granted, but our aim to put our own stamp on them and help hand them on to future generations.”
The talented Young Wolfe Tones on the album are brother and sister duo Damaris and Jim Woods. Born in Luton of Irish parents, both are top-rated instrumentalists, Jim on accordion and bodhran and Damaris on banjo/mandolin, Padraig Allen, a singer-songwriter who was given his first instrument by his uncle Tony of Foster and Allen fame. Luke Ward from County Cavan complements the music brilliantly, adding rhythmic exuberance and attack, Kevin O’Donnell, from Dunkineely in South-West Donegal, is one of Ireland’s finest young balladeers and performs with great energetic spirit and passion.
The new double CD set comprises of 38 tracks and mines a rich seam of Irish song including a new song penned by Derek ‘Over Here Over There’ which highlights the plight of the many undocumented Irish in America, and also includes favourites like ‘The Divil is Dead’, ‘Get out ye Black N’Tans’ ‘My Darling Girl from Clare’, ‘Rathlin’ Bog’, ‘The Lonely Banna Strand’, ‘The Parting Glass’ and many more. There are first-class instrumental tracks, including a great version of the one-and-only ‘Mason’s Apron’.


The seven acre Vatika Business Park is comprised of a pair of linked midrise side core office blocks forming an L and a centre core tower which anchors the composition and marks the 800,000 square foot development in the urban context.
The buildings define three sides of a generous geometrically landscaped piazza, whose fourth edge opens to the road. The piazza is flanked by four-storey retail blocks which buttress the office buildings and mediate their scale along a continuously accessible frontage. A second, naturalistic landscaped area occupies a secluded corner of the site. All of the buildings feature a tripartite composition, with a pedestrian arcade expression at their base, a stone or glass clad midsection and an upper storey loggia zone.

Top 5 Things You Need to Know about the Nunes Memo
The Devin Nunes memo was released but it in no way ends the Mueller investigation. The memo provides enough evidence showing that if President Trump fired Mueller, he would be doing so based on the false belief that the entire investigation was based on coordination between the Clinton campaign, Department of Justice, the FBI and President Obama. The memo proves that wrong. There are five things you should know about the memo.
Wait, how can the government legally spy on Americans including Carter Page
The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act is a law that was established which allows government agencies to eavesdrop on Americans for national security reasons. However, in order to actually spy on them, they must convince a judge on the FISA court that they have evidence that the person is an agent working for a foreign power, on behalf of a government that is collecting intelligence inside the United States or is tied to terrorist activities inside the country. The warrant must be re-approved every 90 days.
According to the memo, the government started their surveillance in October 2016 and renewed their warrant three times. Along with eavesdropping, Congress and President Trump recently re-authorized the government to spy on people living overseas and to order businesses to turn over their records.
1. The FBI and DOJ lied to the FISA Court about the grounds for a warrant on Trump foreign policy advisor Carter Page.
The memo revealed that the salacious Russian dossier on Trump was the key for the FISA warrant against Trump's advisor Carter Page. However, that dossier was clearly biased and the information was never turned over to the FISA court. The FISA warrant application makes no reference to Steele working for and paid by the DNC and Clinton campaign.
The FBI also failed to independently verify the allegations that were part of the Trump dossier before seeking the FISA warrant. Many top DOJ and FBI officials were involved in the application process including Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein. Trump is now considering firing him.
2. The media helped garner the warrant
The FISA warrant issued to surveil Carter Page cited a Yahoo News article, which used leaks from Steele as source material. However, there was no independent evidence corroborating what was said in the dossier, it was just a repeat of information Steele previously provided other sources. Steele ended up being suspended and fired by the FBI for the leak of the information to the media.
3. Steele didn’t like Trump, but this information wasn’t included in the FISA application either.
The Devin Nunes memo says that Steele told Associate Deputy AG Bruce Ohr that he was desperate that Trump not get elected and was very passionate about him not being president. For some unknown reason, Ohr kept that out of the FISA application as well as information that revealed Ohr's wife worked for Fusion GPS, which compiled opposition research on Trump including the Trump Dossier.
The memo also is critical of Steele over his contacts with Yahoo News and alleges he hid them from the FBI, tarnishing his status as a reliable source on the FBI's 2010 FIFA investigation.
Most importantly, the Carter Page application was NOT the launching point of the Trump-Russia collusion investigation.
This is key, if the FISA warrant was what launched the massive investigation, President Trump may have had grounds to shut down the whole thing. Trump could publicly claim that the FBI, DOJ and Clinton campaign came together to trump up these charges and weaponize the intelligence community against him. However, the memo says that information about Trump campaign advisor George Papadopoulos is what triggered the opening of a FBI investigation last summer by FBI Agent Pete Strzok. The memo also shows that Strzok was anti-Trump but shows no evidence that Papadopoulos investigation was biased, which would be hard to prove, now that Papadopoulos pled guilty to lying to the FBI.
5. This memo doesn’t endanger national security
This memo in no way endangers national security. Democrats originally claimed it would threaten national security, but they have failed to express a clear reason. Which makes it look as though they were protecting the FBI, DOJ and everyone else involved.

We tend to avoid measuring our results in terms of statistics alone, as these cannot fully capture the powerful impact that recovery has on our clients and those living or working with them. Therefore, we evaluate success more on the observable changes in the attitudes and behaviour of our clients.
The following is a video given to SharingPoint, produced by an ex client. All of the words are written and sung by the client herself and just as remarkable is that fact that the video was taken by her best friend who is visually impaired.
“I started in group when I was ten days clean of prescribed medication, an addiction that I had for over a decade. I was originally prescribed medication at 18 due to panic attacks, and over the years I developed a dependency to them. By the time I found SharingPoint I was a shell. I had no idea who I was, what I liked, where my life was going. I hated myself from the inside out. I was angry what felt like all the time. I lived in total fear of everything and everyone. The only way I could keep myself safe was to keep everyone, family, friends even my young child at arms-length. That way I wouldn’t get hurt and no one would see what I thought was inside.
Group was so scary for me. I was terrified of everyone and had many panic attacks in group. The facilitators were amazing with me and taught me how to breathe my way out of the panic attacks and I slowly learned how to live in the now and experience life as it was happening in the moment. I remember so clearly the first panic attack I had in group and the facilitator helped me through it and I remember the thought that crossed my mind ‘If I had found this place 20 years ago my life could have been so different. Why didn’t any doctor do this with me?’ For the first time in my life I felt safe. I was afraid that I wouldn’t fit in group, that if I wasn’t on heroin well then I didn’t have a real problem. I quickly realised it wasn’t about the drugs or drink: it was about learning to find out who I was, what I liked and the end result being, me learning to love myself. Everyone in group was so welcoming and caring which at the beginning scared me and I made a mental note not to trust any of them.
However, over time I started to feel safer and safer in group. People were so honest and all the mad thoughts that I thought only I had others were talking of. I started to think maybe I’m not mad!!! I spent three and a half years in group. They were without a doubt some of the best & hardest years of my life so far!! I could safely say I spent the first two years learning to live in this very moment, and learning to experience my life as it was happening, not the past or the future. The level of fear that I carried when I first came into group had started to lessen, and I began to live a life I never thought I could have. Terror certainly does not frequent my mind and I never went back to prescribed medication again, something I firmly believed would be with me until the day I died.
My life today is filled with love, yes there is fear, but I have gained many tools in group that help me when I do feel fear. I have friends that I can talk to honestly and openly. I am applying to study midwifery at degree level. I feel at peace, but above all for a woman who lived in terror at every minute of the day. I feel safe in my skin: this to me is pure gold.”
“SharingPoint saved my life! I was introduced to SharingPoint about four years ago through an NA sponsor. At the time I was two and a half years clean, and pretty much devastated at where my life was. I had started using drink and drugs at twelve, and spent seventeen years caught up in active addiction. I had heard someone say ‘when you take away the drink and drugs you are left with the reasons you started using them’, and that was so true for me.
Experiences in my childhood had left me angry, devastated, and broken. The drink and drugs started out as an escape and quickly escalated into part of the problem. I had bounced around different countries, homes, friends, and jobs all my life looking for answers. My coping strategy in life was to trust no one, and don’t ever let anyone take advantage of me ‘again’.
I truly believed that if I just got my addiction under control everything would fall into place. It didn’t! The effects of my childhood had tentacles in every part of my life and I spent my life reacting out of fear of everything and everyone. It took a while for me to open up and to trust SharingPoint and the other members of my group. I cannot say enough about the professionalism and care that we received as group members. I can only say that SharingPoint taught me to open up, to trust, and to eventually face my issues in a safe and caring environment.
Today drink or drugs don’t even enter my mind—I have no need for them! I am happy in myself, my relationships, and my life. I feel confident and self-assured for the first time ever. I like being me! I couldn’t thank SharingPoint enough, how do you thank someone for giving you a happy life? I would, and have, recommended SharingPoint to anyone struggling in this world.”
“I came from a household where my father was an alcoholic and my mother was mentally abusive. I joined SharingPoint in 2010. I was 20 years old at the time. It all started because my younger sister had been involved for a while, and I noticed a change in her. I had wanted counselling for a long time beforehand but had always been too afraid to seek it out. Eventually I asked her for a number she had gotten, the number of my uncle whom both of us were very close to, and after having the number in my phone for about four to five months, and much encouragement from my sister and uncle, I eventually rang up and arranged a one-to-one meeting.
Terrified was an understatement, I was bricking it, but I went, and after an hour I walked out with, I suppose the best way to describe it, was a little bit of understanding and happiness so I went back. Originally the plan was to see this person for a couple of weeks and then jet off to America, which in the end did not happen. After two months of one-to-ones, I joined a group in February 2011 and I have never looked back. Before I joined I was insecure, paranoid, believed everyone would talk about me and believed I wasn’t worth more than a piece of trash on the ground.
After three years of the hardest work I have done in my life—and probably ever will do—I can honestly say I’m not the same person that walked in. I still struggle with some things I came in with but I can handle them so much better than I ever have before. Doing this for the past three years has not been easy. It was full of ups and downs, brought up stuff I never imagined, but I can honestly say it is the most rewarding thing I will ever do with my life for myself. SharingPoint has taught me how to enjoy being happy and how not to let the bad times, which will happen to everyone, take over my life, and for me that was huge. I 100% recommend anyone to give it a go, because even though it’s hard work, the payoff is better than I could have ever imagined.”
“My name is John and I have been involved with SharingPoint for just over 3 years now, in which time my life has been completely transformed from a life of predominant fear, darkness and despair – to one of light, love and laughter.
I joined SharingPoint in October 2007…..I had been just over 2 years clean from alcohol, drugs and a gambling addiction…..My life had changed in many ways in that I had returned to education and had a life free from alcohol, drugs and gambling as well as the associated fighting, hospital admissions, arrests and court appearances. However….I was experiencing feelings of overwhelming fear, and despair on an almost daily basis and I didn’t understand why this was happening.
At a point where I felt as though I couldn’t go on living this way….I became aware of the existence of SharingPoint. I met with SharingPoint and was invited to attend weekly meetings with people who were also affected by addiction in one way or another. I felt hope for the first time that others felt similarly to the way I was feeling and that there was a way to change this for the better…..I have attended these meetings on a weekly basis since, as well as forging new relationships outside of ‘group’ that have become the single most important part of my life.
During my time in SharingPoint, I believe I have changed beyond recognition from a person who was probably best described as a block of fear. I began looking inside myself for answers to my problems, rather than looking outside and blaming the world and its dog. I discovered a self-loathing and self hatred that I wasn’t aware of before. I had spent my life portraying a happy and confident image in order to hide the real me from the world. I didn’t like myself at all. I spent my life trying to make people like me and wondering endlessly what others thought of me. I believed people saw me as a scumbag, lout or vandal. I was unable to forge healthy relationships with other human beings and didn’t really understand what a healthy relationship meant. I didn’t trust anyone. I didn’t know how to trust people. Becoming aware of who I was was brilliant for me but also very difficult, because I didn’t like what I saw.
Group meetings at SharingPoint helped me to find out who John is and helped me to learn how to firstly accept, then like and eventually love myself. I learned how to trust and began to engage in healthy relationships. I was in a relationship with a woman when I began in group and was filled with suspicion, jealousy, anger and resentment because I knew nothing else. 6 weeks ago and 4 years later I married the same woman and am glad to say that we have a healthy, loving and trusting relationship where one another can be themselves. I have learned that I must look after myself and have a good relationship with myself in order to have healthy relationships with others. I have 2 young children, who I believe are benefiting greatly from the work I have done and continue to do on myself. We have a beautiful home today filled with life, love and laughter.
I cannot speak highly enough of SharingPoint and everyone involved in this fantastic organisation for what it has given to me and my family. I am happy today, beyond my wildest dreams. I know this is due to the hard work and commitment that I put in, but I would never have done any of it without the guidance, care, compassion, support and expertise of the guys at Sharing Point.
Tomorrow morning, I begin a new job, a job that I thought was out of my reach when I applied for it. However I interviewed for the position, told the company all of the good things about myself and why they should employ me and I believed in what I was telling them. They employed me because they liked what they seen and heard. I really like who I am today and I believe in myself. For this and for SharingPoint I am eternally grateful.
“I came to SharingPoint a little over two years ago. Although not an addict myself, I grew up around addiction and it shaped many aspects of who I became. When I found SharingPoint, I was at a stage where I did not know who I was, what I wanted or how to feel. Although I was not addicted to alcohol or drugs etc., I had adopted other methods of burying the pain I was in, such as self-harm, dysfunctional relationships and anything I could use as a distraction. I had no concern for myself or for where my life was heading. I had been numb for a long time, but the pain was surfacing and starting to become more than I could bear and more than anything, I felt so alone.
I assumed that because I wasn’t an addict, I wouldn’t fit in in SharingPoint… but when I joined the group sessions I found something I never thought existed and that was a group of people who could identify with me because they had been where I was and I didn’t feel so alone anymore. I believe that the greatest part about facilitated group work is that there is always someone ahead of you on your journey to help you on your way, and always new people coming in to remind you of where you started.
SharingPoint provides a safe place for people who have never had a safe place to go in their lives. It was a place where I could finally learn how to trust and form new relationships. For me it has been a place to go and listen and to be listened to with no judgments, egos or agendas. A place to learn about myself, who I am and most importantly how to live. The facilitators have helped me get out of my head, which is where I had spent most of my life, and helped me come down into my heart to live my life. They steered me back on course and helped me discover things at my own pace, providing guidance and counsel when needed, and nurturing the process of self-discovery.
Through SharingPoint I have a life today beyond anything I could have imagined. I always thought that if I could just stop the pain and heartache, that would be enough. SharingPoint showed me that that is just one step. Beyond that I have found the beauty of emotions, I’ve grown to like and love myself, to appreciate life. I have two young children who I am able to give love to openly and freely, and am teaching them how to do the same. My husband joined SharingPoint a year before I did and I could see the change in him and knew I wanted some of the peace he seemed to be finding. Through working on our own issues separately we grew as individuals, learned to communicate and forge out a life for ourselves full of love and hope and happiness.
I truly wish that SharingPoint continues to grow so that as many people as possible affected by addiction could experience what I have been blessed to have experienced in the last two years. I have been given tools for life that will help me along my journey long after my time with SharingPoint is over.”
“I have been affected by addiction my whole life through close family members and then, later on, through my partner. For years I put everyone else’s needs ahead of my own. I lost my 2 brothers in close proximity to each other through drug related incidences. I got to a place where I was lost and full of fear and became suicidal. It was at this point when I joined SharingPoint.
It’s difficult to put in few lines what SharingPoint has done for me because I’m a totally different person because of it. From a girl who was terrified having to leave the house, woke up wishing I hadn’t every day and couldn’t feel anything except fear, to the person I am today. I love meeting new people, I love trying new things, I can now give and receive love and have great relationships in my life but most of all I now have a relationship with myself.”

Michael MacKay, Radio Lemberg, 17.02.2018
Russia is invading Europe in Ukraine. Starting in 2014, Putin destroyed the post-Second World II settlement that avoided international war and kept Europe largely at peace. You wouldn’t know any of this by reading the reportage coming from news agency Reuters about Putin’s War, or by listening to the statements of Germany’s Foreign Minister, Sigmar Gabriel. Lazy journalism from Reuters and Russian disinformation from Gabriel means that the reality of war in Europe is ignored, and the lies of Kremlin propaganda are amplified.
Reuters published a news item on February 17 that at first had the headline “Ukraine progress should soften sanctions on Russia: Germany’s Gabriel” that they subsequently covered with additional paragraphs and the new headline “Sweden says it could be part of U.N. peacekeeping in Ukraine.”
Lazy journalism by Reuters begins with this sentence: “More than 10,000 people have been killed since April 2014 in a conflict that pits Ukraine forces against Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine.” Russia invaded Ukraine on 20 February 2014, the date Putin placed on the medal he gave to Russian special forces who besieged the regional parliament in Simferopol, Crimea, Ukraine. The “Ukrainian forces” are in fact the Armed Forces of Ukraine – the Ground Forces, Navy, Air Force, Airmobile Forces, Territorial Battalions and the National Guard of Ukraine. There are no “Russian-backed separatists” – this is a Kremlin lie; there are only regular and irregular soldiers of the Russian armed forces, under the command of Russian officers, armed, supplied, and paid by Russia. Finally, the “conflict” is a war – an invasion – and it is not taking place in eastern Ukraine only: it is also taking place in southern Ukraine (in Crimea) and in cyberspace and in the whole world as economic warfare by Russia against Ukraine.
The earlier draft of the article also referred to Russian soldiers as “rebels.” This is an out-and-out Kremlin lie, as there is no rebellion – only Putin’s invasion. Reuters removed the word “rebel” which is so beloved by Russian propagandists.
Reuters reported Germany’s Foreign Minister, Sigmar Gabriel, making a statement at the Munich Security Conference. Gabriel said “the West should ease some economic sanctions imposed on Russia if Kiev [sic; Reuters probably means Kyiv] and Moscow implemented a lasting ceasefire in eastern Ukraine with the help of peacekeepers.” Gabriel is wrong on many counts in this misleading statement. First, sanctions were imposed in 2014 after Russia invaded Ukraine in Crimea, and are not connected to the ceasefire arising from the early 2015 Minsk Agreement about Russia’s subsequent invasion of Ukraine in Donbas. Second, Gabriel gives a false equivalency for ceasefire violations, as if Ukraine and Russia were both responsible; as the German foreign minister knows full well, Russia is initiating the attack with Minsk-proscribed weapons and Ukraine is defending itself with Minsk-permitted weapons – ceasefire violations are ordered by Putin as a tool of his ongoing war. Third, the war is in southern Ukraine (Crimea) and in eastern Ukraine (Donbas) – the invasion is all of a piece to Putin, whose aim is to destroy the sovereignty, independence, and democracy of Ukraine.
An earlier draft of the article quoted Gabriel as saying it was “unrealistic” to expect Russia to adhere to the conditions for lifting sanctions – therefore some sanctions should be lifted! This bizarre reasoning was dropped from the current draft of the Reuters article.
To report Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Reuters maintains a bureau in Moscow only. It does not maintain one in Kyiv. Reuters does not have a regular war reporter on the battlefront in Donbas. Reuters does not have a regular report in Russia-occupied Crimea.
Sigmar Gabriel reflects the ‘Ostpolitik’ thinking of the Social Democratic Party of Germany, which looks only at Russia when looking east, and ignores Ukraine. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine should be a strong negative for Germany; Ukraine participating in a deep and comprehensive free trade agreement with the European Union is a strong positive. But the ‘Realpolitik’ of Russia at war with Europe and Ukraine embracing it has not shifted the pre-1991 thinking of the SPD or of Sigmar Gabriel: they still look to Russia and to the Putin-Kremlin crime syndicate for profits for German industry.
The war effort of Russia against the West is served very well by the Reuters article originally titled “Ukraine progress should soften sanctions on Russia: Germany’s Gabriel.” Where Reuters and Sigmar Gabriel meet, lazy journalism and Russian disinformation come together.

Optimum dose of vitamin D for disease prevention in older people: BEST-D trial of vitamin D in primary care.
Hin H., Tomson J., Newman C., Kurien R., Lay M., Cox J., Sayer J., Hill M., Emberson J., Armitage J., Clarke R.
This trial compared the effects of daily treatment with vitamin D or placebo for 1 year on blood tests of vitamin D status. The results demonstrated that daily 4000 IU vitamin D3 is required to achieve blood levels associated with lowest disease risks, and this dose should be tested in future trials for fracture prevention. INTRODUCTION: The aim of this trial was to assess the effects of daily supplementation with vitamin D3 4000 IU (100 μg), 2000 IU (50 μg) or placebo for 1 year on biochemical markers of vitamin D status in preparation for a large trial for prevention of fractures and other outcomes. METHODS: This is a randomized placebo-controlled trial in 305 community-dwelling people aged 65 years or older in Oxfordshire, UK. Outcomes included biochemical markers of vitamin D status (plasma 25-hydroxy-vitamin D [25[OH]D], parathyroid hormone [PTH], calcium and alkaline phosphatase), cardiovascular risk factors and tests of physical function. RESULTS: Mean (SD) plasma 25(OH)D levels were 50 (18) nmol/L at baseline and increased to 137 (39), 102 (25) and 53 (16) nmol/L after 12 months in those allocated 4000 IU, 2000 IU or placebo, respectively (with 88%, 70% and 1% of these groups achieving the pre-specified level of >90 nmol/L). Neither dose of vitamin D3 was associated with significant deviation outside the normal range of PTH or albumin-corrected calcium. The additional effect on 25(OH)D levels of 4000 versus 2000 IU was similar in all subgroups except for body mass index, for which the further increase was smaller in overweight and obese participants compared with normal-weight participants. Supplementation with vitamin D had no significant effects on cardiovascular risk factors or on measures of physical function. CONCLUSIONS: After accounting for average 70% compliance in long-term trials, doses of 4000 IU vitamin D3 daily may be required to achieve plasma 25(OH)D levels associated with lowest disease risk in observational studies.

The Portland Show has become what must be the largest
stationary engine show in the world, and as such, seemed the ideal meeting place for the members of the Stationary
Engine Mailing List. Over the past year, plans to make this the engine party of all engine parties developed. Aside
from the show, there were to be two other major events. Firstly, at a dinner attended by every ATIS member at the
show there was to be a presentation to Brice Adams, founder of the Engine List, and then the following night a
"World Beer Tasting" was organised, with List Members from around the world bringing samples of their
This is a very personal view of the show from the French family of England, and for us it was a huge adventure.
None of us had ever been to America, our sons, aged 8 and 11, had never flown or even been out of the country before.
Friends on the List gave us plenty of advice about unmissable sights and sent all the necessary maps and guides
(but even with my limited map reading ability, I still think the California map was somewhat superfluous) and we
set out on August 16th. Despite making an early morning start and having an eight hour flight, it was midday local
time when we arrived in New York - a good time to collect the hire vehicle and see the sights of the city,
the most important of which were the Statue of Liberty
and the view from the Empire State Building.
Eyes propped open with matchsticks, we finally returned to our motel to recharge the batteries for Day Two.
Day Two saw us heading across New Jersey and into Pennsylvania, aiming for the south of the state. We noticed that
this took us close to the home of a List Member, George Lauderback, who we knew would not be attending Portland,
so we tracked him down and paid him a surprise visit. At the Lauderback residence,
this is Jim, Vicki Griffin, Christian, Tom, George and his wife Peg and friend Clyde Griffin, posing in front of
George's Hercules. Clyde was on his way to the show at Kinzer, and led us there, taking the local roads and pointing
out the sites. Even though it was quite late when we arrived at the showgrounds, it was a hive of activity, and
we were introduced to many new people and shown some of the engines housed there.
Day Three started with breakfast at the Rough and Tumble showground, then we headed off to Strasburg, to indulge
Christian's passion for trains, with a visit to the ChooChoo Barn, home of a 1,700 foot square model railway, and
a ride on the Strasburg
steam train. The afternoon was spent taking
in some of the show at Kinzer,
and meeting a few List members - Rick Kramer and his father, Bill Lopoulos, Ted Brookover and Edd Payne. That night
was spent in Gettysburg.
Gettysburg was viewed on Day Four, from the an open-top bus, with a tour
and dramatized narration of the battle. Then it was north east to the Pocono mountains, where we hoped to find
an alpine slide, if not a little white water to raft on.
Cloud and drizzle greeted us on the start of Day Five, which disappointingly closed the alpine slide we'd found,
so it was further north again to New York state, where the next attraction on our agenda, Howe Caverns,
was 200 feet underground and could not be spoiled by the persistant rain! According to the guidebook which was
dictating our every move, Cooperstown was full of "original" and "picturesque" buildings. The
subject of baseball was glossed over in favour of historical information, but on arriving there we discovered the
town to be full of dedicated baseball enthusiasts. Luckily, we found a room in a delightful bed and breakfast,
full of antiques and all the "originality" we could have hoped for.
Still raining as we drove east towards the Finger Lakes on Day Six, but the weather was brightening all the time,
and we enjoyed the scenery - although some of it was not what we expected to find in Upstate New York!
The long summer drought had left many of the "spectacular" waterfalls either completely dry or with only
a trickle of water. However, we still enjoyed a late afternoon hike around the dramatic Watkins Glen,
before reaching Buffalo for the night.
Day Seven - Niagara. All the hype, pictures and personal accounts can't prepare you for the amazing sights and
sounds of around half
a million gallons of water per second going
over the Falls. Most of the day was spent marvelling at the view from the river,
side, under the Bridal Veil Falls
and the Canadian
side, and we finally headed away into Canada.
Expecting things to be similar to America, we soon realised our mistake when we found motels to be very scarce.
However, just as we were beginning to face a night in the van, we reached civilisation in the form of Tillsonburg,
complete with motels!
Day Eight brought us back to America via Port Huron, where we couldn't resist a swim in the lake
to add to the list of monumental events of the trip, and a leisurely drive down to Ann Arbor to recover our energies
for events to come!
Day Nine found us at the Greenfield Village
museum at Dearborn where we saw as much as possible in a very limited time, before heading south, for the big meeting

"I loved the garlic green beans at Izzy's. I found this recipe on cooks.com. It is delicious."
Serving Size: 1 (126 g)
Servings Per Recipe: 4
"A simple and simply perfect dish. This would pair very well with pretty much everything and everyone in the family should enjoy these beans. I did cut back on the amount of butter by about half and I don't believe it suffered :d"
"This was very tasty and so simple. This will be my go to recipe for green beans from now on. Made for ZWT 8."
"Very good very easy. Careful not to overcook."
"I made these using Trader Joe's crushed garlic because I didn't have any minced garlic on hand. Our favorite way to make them is to use a combination of crush and minced garlic with a little extra thrown in for good measure. It's the only way DD will eat them. Yum!"
"I'm generally not a fan of green beans but my husband is, so I decided to give this recipe a try. I really liked them! I think I will add more time to the cooking since they were a bit under done for me. They had great flavor especially if you like garlic!"
"Scaled back to one serve but divided between the DS and myself which was just right for us asw a side, was a quick and simple recipe and I thank Lavender Lynn, made for Went To Market tag game."
"Great flavor. I loaded it up with the maximum amount of garlic specified. A squeeze of lemon just before serving would taste great, also."
"Yummy yummy! Fresh green beans with butter and garlic. Simple and delicious. Made for ZWT 8."
"Sometimes simple is best. This is simple to make and made a great side dish. Thanks Lynn for a nice keeper. Made for ZWT8 France."
"Reviewed for ZWT8- A lovely vege side that was easy and tasty. I used less butter than stated in the recipe."
"This recipe is great. Great flavor from the butter and garlic. I steamed the green beans. Thanks Lynn :) Made for ZWT8 for Diners, Winers and Chives"
"Wow Lynn, were these green beans good. I made the recipe exactly as written for a truly decadent treat. Loved the nutty flavor of the garlic and all that buttery goodness. We enjoyed these last night with a lovely french steak dish. Thanks so much for sharing a quick and easy recipe that I will make often. Made for Fearless Red Dragons ZWT8 - France"
"I can't believe I still haven't reviewed this recipe. It has been my go-to recipe for string beans for a while. I use 4 large garlic cloves and two tablespoons of butter for a perfect side dish that everyone enjoys. Thank you."
"Very good--though I think you could reduce the butter by a tablespoon and it would still taste good"
"A great example of less is more in a recipe. How can you go wrong with fresh tender green beans in buttery garlic? This is simply delicious. It goes with anything from beef to fish to vegetarian to ethnic foods. You could really cut down the butter to save on some fat calories, I think. I used 2 tbsp and it was plenty. Thanx for posting!"
"Delicious! I used a mix of yellow and green beans. Cooked 10 minutes just like in the recipe. Yum!"
"We loved these! So simple to prepare and so delicious. We served them as a side to Kittencal's Perfect Prime Rib, an outstanding pairing. Thank you for the wonderful recipe for a vegetable that I used to find hard to love."
"These are great! Only thing I did different is cook the beans for a longer time because that is how we like them. Few ingredients but full of flavor. Thanks so much for posting."
"I have been making my green beans this way forever. They couldn't be better!"

Part of the 2014 Fringe Festival presented by FringeArts, New Paradise Laboratories’ The Adults is a truly collaborative theater piece—merging original and new ensemble members, music composition by Bhob Rainey (2013 Pew Fellow), set design by Matt Saunders (2014 Pew Fellow), and the influence of Anton Chekhov and painter Eric Fischl.
Supported by The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage, The Adults explores the not-so-hidden darkness of human nature and its impact on the natural world. Six adults and one invisible visitor gather at a lake house in the woods, their cruelties demonstrated through highly physical theater and the pairing of ominous sound and set design. Since its world premiere at Painted Bride Art Center on September 3, The Adults has received rave reviews. Performances run through September 14.
For The New York Times, critic Ben Brantley describes the action of the play as “games, both sporting and erotic…rendered in various body-contorting pas de deux, in which civilized and primal impulses seem to do battle.” Read more >
“Nasty, beautiful, ugly, thought-provoking, and hypnotic,” writes Wendy Rosenfield for The Philadelphia Inquirer. “Matt Saunders’ set and projections offer a Philip Johnson-style modernist dream…beneath the menacing eyes of an enormous taxidermied bear. Bhob Rainey’s fuzzy, squealing sound design, all unsettled agitation, underscores the disconnect between the people and their surroundings.” Read more >
Lew Whittington of the Huffington Post praises New Paradise Laboratories’ bold experimentation: “unflinching as a theater company willing to experiment with high-wire concepts, kinetic visuals, cinematic sound design, integrating ‘physical theater’ and character choreography to conjure fantastical stage worlds that challenge safe theater conventions.” Read more >
Philebrity says The Adults is “highly physical movement work that provokes a rapturous discomfort from way deep in your gut…onstage happenings so astonishing they attain the level of hallucination or illusion.” Read more >
EgoPo Classic Theater transforms classic theater and literature into provocative performances, placing equal emphasis on text, vocals, and movement. Its
FringeArts presented the only American showing of this production by Australia’s Back to Back Theatre—a company known for creating works by and for an ensemble of actors perceived to have intellectual disabilities.
BalletX presented the world premiere of Annabelle Lopez Ochoa’s Still@Life and Helen Pickett’s Union.
Red-Eye to Havre de Grace, created by Thaddeus Phillips with support from The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage, is reviewed in the New York Times.

It seems that Titanfall is ready for testing as Origin account holders are starting to receive invitations for the Xbox One Alpha test, word of the invites began to spread on NeoGAF, where multiple users have received emails and have investigated further to check that these emails aren’t part of some scam.
A Microsoft representative re-confirmed the test while talking to Polygon: “We are very excited for Respawn Entertainment and Electronic Arts’ ‘Titanfall’ on Xbox and look forward to hearing more about the game in the coming weeks and months,”
There is a downside though, the test seems to be limited to the Xbox One, at least for now. Hopefully with this announcement, we’ll see a PC beta soon. It would be wise for EA to be thorough in its testing this time around after what happened with Battlefield 4.
KitGuru Says: The game is only a couple of months away so getting people to test it is probably a good idea. I don’t think the publisher can afford to have another botched game launch.

Wellesley Selects Roger Duffy Studio at SOM as Architect for Science Center Renovations
Wellesley College has always been a leader in Science education. In fact, did you know that Wellesley Alumnae are awarded more science and engineering doctoral degrees than female graduates of any other liberal arts college? It’s true. The Wellesley network includes research pioneers, leaders in public health, experts in disease and preventative medicine, along with a groundbreaking string theorist and a NASA astronaut – just to name a few.
The College will soon have a cutting edge Science Center where the next generations of leading women scientists will collaborate, make new discoveries, tackle theorems, engineer inventive solutions to the world’s most pressing problems—and so much more. A committee, comprising a multidisciplinary team of community representatives from the administration, faculty from the arts and sciences, and trustees has chosen architects from the Roger Duffy Studio at SOM (Skidmore, Owings & Merrill), one of the largest, most established architecture firms in the country, to lead the creation of this new space.
"An important pedagogical goal for this project is to create spaces where faculty can exercise their creativity by adopting new modes of teaching while preserving the excellence we are currently achieving,” said Ann Velenchik, Associate Professor of Economics and Dean of Academic Affairs. “Improvements in the size, shape and furnishing of our classrooms will allow for more active learning and project based instruction, better integration of technology, better sightlines for students to blackboards and screens, and more comfortable and inviting classrooms."
The Roger Duffy Studio has an impressive record of peer-reviewed design excellence, with projects including the campus center at New York City’s New School, New York’s Skyscraper Museum, and the Center for Character & Leadership Development (CCLD) at the U.S. Air Force Academy. The last project was recently profiled in Architecture Magazine.
According to Jon Alvarez, director of design and construction, the project attracted a large international pool of candidates. Twenty-one firms were invited to submit qualifications for the commission, 18 responded and ten were invited to submit proposals. Additionally, Alvarez said, firms were invited to team with other firms that specialized in “the design of science learning environments.” He said this strategy gave the committee “the confidence that they were getting the best and the brightest, and the most technically sound.”
The final four candidates were invited to present their work to the campus community, but were instructed not to present specific design solutions. They were instead asked to “identify the significant challenges of the project and discuss how their previous work illustrates their ability to solve similar problems and produce excellent design.”
Alvarez called the Science Center project one of the “most complex architectural problems he’s encountered” in over 40 years in the business. “It’s a tremendous puzzle with constraints, technical issues, design issues…we needed to bring in the best.”
The Roger Duffy Studio, a niche group of handpicked talent within SOM, stood out. “His team did the most outstanding work in every phase of the selection process, from submission of qualifications and proposal to interview and presentation, and rose to the top,” said Alvarez. It was also important to the committee that women hold key roles on the team Project Manager and Technical Architect roles. The group has enlisted Jacobs Consultancy as its science partner for the project.
The committee’s recommendation letter noted that the Roger Duffy team “understood and articulated with deep sensitivity the sense of place in analyzing the project.” And also “gave considerable thought to how the project would relate to the rest of Wellesley’s campus, and the prior work the team presented indicated considerable responsiveness to campus context and surrounding landscape.”
Construction is scheduled to begin before the start of the 2018-2019 school year.

Guatemala City is the capital of Guatemala, in Central America. It’s known for its Mayan history, high-altitude location and nearby volcanoes. On central Plaza Mayor, also known as Parque Central, the Metropolitan Cathedral is full of colonial paintings and religious carvings. The National Palace of Culture has a balcony overlooking the square. South of the city, trails lead up to the active Pacaya Volcano.
Best Time to Visit
If you are planning a Travel to Guatemala then the best time of year to visit weather-wise is in December and January, when everything is still green from the rains, but the sky is clear.
Top Places to Visit in Guatemala City
1. Museum of Mayan Costumes
For an overview of traditional Guatemalan costumes, from ceremonial pieces to regular garments, the Ixchel Museum of Mayan Costumes is the place to visit. The museum, on the Universidad Francisco Marroquin campus, has a vast collection of textiles dating to the end of the 19th century, originating from 120 Guatemalan communities. A collection of paintings illustrating the regional costumes complements the exhibits. The museum is named for the Mayan goddess of fertility and weaving.
2. Museo Popol Vuh
For anyone spending time in Guatemala City one of the most interesting places to enjoy a few hours at is the Museo Popol Vuh. This is one of the leading museums in the world of Mayan art, housing a valuable and comprehensive collection of both Mayan and colonial art. On display are a large collection of masks, pottery, gems, tools, and sculptures.
3. The Pacaya Volcano
The Pacaya Volcano, rising to more than 2,550 meters, offers the chance to witness volcanic activity first hand. Located near Antigua, this volcano been continuously active since 1975, and lava explosions constantly change its appearance. Organized tours offer guided hikes on the volcano and an opportunity to roast marshmallows over the heat created by hot spots. It should be noted that, as an active volcano, hiking it does involve some risks.
4. Metropolitan Cathedral
The Cathedral of Guatemala City, also Metropolitan Cathedral, officially Catedral Primada Metropolitana de Santiago, is the main church of Guatemala City and of the Archdiocese of Guatemala. It is located at the Parque Central in the center of the city. Its massive structure incorporates baroque and classical elements and has withstood numerous earthquakes. Damage by the devastating earthquakes of 1917 and 1976 has been repaired. The inside of the cathedral is relatively sparsely decorated but impresses by its size and its structural strength. The altars are ornate and decorative. In front of the cathedral stand a series of 12 pillars,

With views towards the river and the harbor, this 42 square meter apartment in Gothenburg, Sweden is said to offer a high degree of calmness and well being. The small one-room home discovered by our site on Alvhem features a large shared roof terrace, perfect for having friends over. The entire apartment is visually linked by parquet flooring that runs the entire surface of the property. As you enter, you are greeted by an “interactive” hallway with room for a desk and clever storage above the entrance door.
The wall between the kitchen and the living room has been opened up in order to create an extensive floor plan. Stylish counter-top, gray tiles and white cabinet doors give the kitchen a strong graphic character. Generously-sized windows allow natural light to flow freely in the living room, with sun rays optimally captured throughout the day. This joyful interior is decorated in such a creative manner, that each corner draws attention; from the golden lighting unit to the paintings on the walls, everything seems to be in perfect tune. Enjoy this dose of Swedish inspiration and feel free to share your thoughts!
If you believe that green does not work in a trendy and minimal contemporary bedroom, then think again! A green accent wall is easy to shape and it brings that much needed warmth to an otherwise cool and mundane interior. Just repeat the color in the room using vivacious bedding, accessories, nightstands or even a couple of lovely vases and you have an inviting bedroom that is both energetic and relaxing. Those who feel that an accent wall in green or décor are not your thing can still add the color by placing a couple of potted plants to fill up those empty corners. It is an easy, eco-friendly and healthy choice to turn to that will instantly alter the mood in the bedroom.
The terms ‘contemporary’ and ‘modern’ are often used interchangeably when describing design. It’s a common faux pas and one of which this writer is certainly guilty. In design lexicon the two words have contrasting and quite distinct meanings. Describing their difference at a somewhat rudimentary level: contemporary makes reference to the present-day – that which is current and of the time – whereas modern alludes to the past, specifically that of Modernism (post the First World War) and mid-20th century modern design and architecture.

All my life, I have read books that I found intriguing. I considered myself to be in those books, a character playing a part and not as just an audience. I have lived their lives, I have won battles and I have cried and felt joy along with them. These books have been a part of my life, a part that I have found rich and voluminous. But reading them was not enough.
I had to see if there was anyone who was me. A girl who saw the world just as I do, who sometimes danced when walking while no one watched, sometimes she talked so much she forgets where she had started. A girl who thought the world was unfair while she loved it at the same time, who held sparks in her eyes, enough to ablaze someone who looked too deep. I’ve searched through the books of Hardy, Shakespeare or Austen but never been able to find that one girl who resembled me. Perhaps, I am still to be written. I am yet to be described in those poetic gestures lovers use to describe their soul mate.
No, I am unwritten because I still have to choose what I would like to create for myself in any aspect of my life. It is so easy to get busy with everyday boring tasks, same old stuffs and slowly drift away from what your heart actually wants. What if tomorrow when you are sitting at a restaurant with your friends, watching Tom Hardy on that big screen TV getting comfy in his couch and they ask you “So, what have you been doing with your life?” and you realize you don’t have a story to tell. What if?
We all need a story of our life that we can tell people about. For that you need a pen and a paper. Well, lots of papers. I believe life isn’t about having a job and paying bills. Life is when you see yourself on the verge of making that dream come true. It’s about passion and courage – to reach the glory of success you have desired. If you don’t write that story yourself, no one else would. You are the author of your life and your life is the book you need to write. If you don’t have an idea what your story could be, just take a deep breath and let the story emerge slowly. Everything I do, I don’t have a certain intention or a conscious thought and most of the time I am stumbling upon things that I am doing. I am letting my own story emerge as it goes. But I don’t make it significant because if we did, it would become a pressure and we will lose hope from that.
So don’t see if your story is right, just see if you are taking it to where you want it to– that makes your heart sing. After all you are the author – you get to decide.

Thousands of D-FW veterans need better care. There is a plan to get it for them
The North Texas region prides itself on being one of the fastest growing in the country. But a sobering reality is that a big part of that growth includes veterans who need health care at a time when there’s a critical shortage of places to get it.
That’s why we encourage the Veterans Administration to get on board with a proposal to convert the now-abandoned Baylor Scott and White Hospital in Garland into a VA hospital. U.S. Rep. Colin Allred, D-Dallas, told us that he and a bipartisan group of five other area lawmakers are pushing hard to make it happen because it would help serve 184,000 more veterans in North Texas and reduce wait times to get care.

text: Over the last decade the use of frozen–thawed embryo transfer has substantially increased, and currently up to one in two embryos transferred has been cryopreserved. To support implantation, endometrial and embryo maturity are required to be synchronized. This can be achieved in various ways. The most commonly applied endometrial preparation methods are the “natural cycle,” in which the sequential estrogen and P necessary for endometrial maturation are derived from the developing follicle, and the “artificial” cycle, in which these are sequentially administered. Review of the published data comparing these approaches does not identify a superior approach in terms of clinical outcomes. However, although the “natural cycle” avoids the need for luteal support, the artificial cycle provides more control over timing of ET, and the “modified” natural cycle, in which ovulation is triggered exogenously, may offer both of these advantages. The optimal monitoring strategy for freeze–thaw cycles remains unclear, because only a few studies have addressed this question. Further studies are also required to determine the ideal dosage, method of administration, and duration of estrogen and P supplementation in artificial cycle frozen embryo transfer.


MATIER & ROSS -- Brown Thinks Bootleg Play Will Score 49ers New Stadium
His strategy: Cast the special election as a family affair, not a referendum on the football team and its wealthy owners.
The upshot: The mayor has decided to load up the ballot with nearly $230 million in other "quality of life" goodies to soften the impact of the Niners' deal and make the public feel hopeful about the city's future.
The "feel good" bond measures would provide $48 million to make over the San Francisco zoo, $130 million to repair schools and make improvements to City College, and $45 million to build new cultural facilities for nearly every minority group, including blacks, Latinos, gays and American Indians.
"This election is about kids and families -- the quality of life for San Franciscans," says consultant John Whitehurst, who is running the zoo campaign.
Unfortunately, the ballot won't address some of the city's other truly pressing issues, like, say, a new city jail or Youth Guidance Center. They're both two- time losers, and, frankly, considered "downers."
The truth is, Brown hopes to use the June ballot to show enough goodwill to his minority supporters to keep them from bludgeoning the 49ers' deal.
But even if the Niners, who still haven't formally submitted a stadium plan to the city, decide not to go to the voters in June, the special election won't be for naught.
"Even if the Niners don't go, the mayor still has a nice package," says a source who has followed the play. "That's the beauty of it, and the genius of Willie."
Genius, perhaps -- but then Brown didn't exactly bat 1,000 percent the last time at the polls.
P.S. Win or lose, this June's ballot bonanza will cost you.
TROUBLED YOUTH: Less than four months after Mayor Brown named his old college pal, Rudy Smith, as interim chief probation officer at the city's troubled Youth Guidance Center, the search is on for Smith's replacement, The Chronicle has learned.
Word is, the Juvenile Probation Commission -- under pressure to bring stability to a system rocked by political infighting, an embezzlement scandal and several suicide attempts by the kids in its custody -- has been less than wowed by Smith's leadership.
"I'm very concerned," said one commissioner. "I know the mayor expects this commission to bring about reform, and we need a chief probation officer with a vision how to reform the system."
As it turns out, Smith may have sealed his own fate recently by offering a probation officer's job to an ex-employee of the Juvenile Justice Commission -- a man who was fired in 1994 for allegedly threatening and cursing a number of Juvenile Hall workers.
The ex-employee has since been a regular at commission meetings where he hectors commissioners. He's also believed to be the author of (or at least connected to) a ranting, underground newsletter that, among other things, has castigated Brown as "Da Ayatollah," and youth advocate Margaret Brodkin as "the racist goblin."
Probation chief Smith says he wasn't aware of the worker's history "prior to choosing him," but others say that would have been
all but impossible.
Whatever the case, Smith's selection caused quite a stir around Juvenile Hall and may have handed the Juvenile Probation Commission the ammunition it's been looking for to dump Smith.
TICKING BOMB: Talk about bad timing.
Last week, the Oakland City Council looked like it had pulled off a stroke of political genius when it voted to refinance its employee pension bonds, instantly producing $15 million to help pay off mounting debts from the Raiders football deal.
A week later, council members are being called goats, after the revelation of a city memo, dated December 20, showing that Oakland faces an unrelated $16.8 million deficit. This means that the city may have to cut some services as much as 18 percent to balance the budget.
Now tempers are flying -- amid charges that the pension money should have been used to soften the blow to city services.
Fumed one city employee threatened with layoff: "They've chosen to turn against police, fire, seniors, cultural activities and fixing potholes in favor of a football team."
As Russo sees it, the city is wisely taking the one-time refinance money and using it "to shield the general fund from being hit with coliseum expenses."
"That doesn't change the fact that we have to control and get ahold of this city budget . . . Using (the refinance money to plug the city deficit) would just delay the inevitable one more year."
Maybe so, but as the workers see it, they'll gladly take a year over a pink slip.

Well, actually nowadays, 3d glasses are very expensive and they are very popular with many people, especially young people. And first, you should know that the 3D effect relies on your two eyes each seeing a slightly different image, in which your brain then combines into a three dimensional picture. Because of their special functions, they are more attractive than the regular glasses. So when you have worn a pair of 3d glasses while watching 3d movie, it will make you feel that you are just in the real phenomenon. Anyway, it can be amazing. And because of this special function, 3d glasses should be made with special material too. And that is why they are so expensive. But in my opinion, you can just buy ones and have a try.
Different production of raw material of 3D glasses, different price. The lowest prices one is made by red, blue and green color glasses to form the complementary colors, just made by transparent plastic material. The higher prices one is made by resin with better filtering rate. The best one is the one which used in cinema, it would bring enjoyable feeling for you to experience the stereo effect and vividly feature. You will get what you pay for.
Ok, it seems that you are wondering why 3d glasses cost you so much money. Anyway, on an economic basis, the answer could not be explained easily. But as you can see the reason why they are so costly is that they are primarily made for rich people and the upper society, which could afford more expensive products, which make those 3d glasses quite expensive, but with the passage of time, they tend to be cheap, that is a social trend. Try to look at Amazon, where you could see some 3d glasses at reasonable prices.

Critical journal of illustration. Published by Studio Operative, designed by Traven T. Croves, printed by Cassochrome.
Reviewed by Judith Carnaby
Opening with the quote ‘Our time is a time for crossing barriers, for erasing old categories – for probing around’, from The Medium is the Massage by Marshall McLuhan, Limner‘s editorial text positions its exploration of ‘self-direction’ in illustration. The text examines how the internet and self-publishing platforms allow new spaces for self-expression and self-determination for illustrators, and how in seeking new avenues for their work illustrators are breaking down the more traditional roles of illustrator, art director and client/publisher. In electing to present only self-directed work in the journal, Limner is blending the illustrators’ public and private practices, making visible the varied processes of illustration and investigating its changing contexts.
The main editorial text is printed on and spread between the inside covers, framing the images and giving the reader a nice lead in to the visual content. With the absence of colour (except for large glossy photographs in the centre) I found myself focusing on the textures, mark-making and imaginative nature of the images. The images presented in Limner are playful, raw, rough and questioning. The brush-strokes in Romy Blümel’s images are tactile and painterly; the connected drawings by Jean Julien/Mrzyk & Moriceau are a series of absurdly funny ideas; the delicate use of pencil in Billie Muraben’s elegant and sparse Pools series contrasts Miriam Elgons’ full, scribbled illustrations based on Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World. Working drawings and concept sketches are rarely seen outside of an illustrator’s studio and in publishing these self-directed images Limner has created an interesting overview of the variety of processes and attitudes artists take towards creating their work when released from the pressure of commissions and deadlines.
The texts are printed in a smaller booklet nestled in between the larger images, which makes reading the publication as a whole slightly hard to navigate. I also found myself flipping between the images and the list of artists, struggling to connect work to the artists’ names. But in some way, refraining from explicitly placing identities on the works allows a more open and anonymous reading of the images. The design also seems to reflect some of the ideas of the editorial and texts: the feeling of slight uncertainty and confusion about how to read the journal works like a draft of an idea, a sketch, and something that doesn’t quite make sense, naturally fitting in and supporting the illustrations. Collectively Limner is a smart publication and opens up the question of what illustration is and how illustrators are creating bodies of work based on their own research, and increasingly on their own terms.

Bank of America does not need to raise fresh capital to comply with the new regulations shaping the financial world and the quality of its credit portfolios is getting better, CEO Brian Moynihan told CNBC Friday in an interview from Davos, Switzerland.
A week ago, Bank of America reported a quarterly loss, hit by writedowns in its mortgage business.
The bank posted a fourth quarter shareholder loss of 16 cents a share in the fourth quarter, compared with analysts' expectations of a profit of 14 cents a share.
"We’re very optimistic about the franchise going forward," Moynihan said.
>> Click here to watch the full interview.
In anticipation of the new regulations, such as the Dodd-Frank financial reform legislation in the US and the Basel III international rules, the bank has raised $50 billion, he added.
"We have the capital to run our company … we have a clear path to follow these rules and not have to raise capital," he said.
The credit quality of the portfolio has improved and, overall, "the credit quality issue is behind the company and behind the US," Moynihan said.
"What's left to do is to work through the housing problems in the US," he said.
"Overall, (housing) prices kind of bump around and it will take a few more years to get through this," Moynihan added.
On the issue of unemployment in the US, he said the current elevated figures are caused by those who have been out of a job for a long time and not by newcomers, which is a good sign for the quality of credit portfolios.
