As promised, here are the step-by-step photos taken during the painting of Mugs and Mums. This was a scene I photographed at a cute little cafe that had just opened in Venice, Florida, called the Blu Island Bistro. The morning sun was streaming into the glass-cased sunroom, where little bouquets of fresh flowers in square vases were positioned on each table. We had a wonderful breakfast there and I highly recommend the place!
Step 1. I have been getting lazy about drawing lately, so I created a black & white "template" of the photo by printing it out lightly on plain copy paper. I then traced this using Saral graphite transfer paper onto a quarter sheet of stretched 140 lb Arches cold-pressed paper. I feel that if you know you can draw accurately, you do not have to prove it each time you want to paint! On the other hand, drawing by hand might result in a picture with more character, and I would never discourage it.
Step 2. Next I put masking fluid (Daler Rownery) on the flowers because the spider mum was going to be difficult to paint around. Also I did a light background wash using quinacridone gold to represent the sunlit areas of the table. I splattered some water on the wet wash to variegate it with backruns. I began to paint in the bottom of the square glass vase.
Step 3. Now I had fun painting the mugs. I used cerulean blue to get a little granulation going, plus cobalt blue and quinacridone gold. I splattered a little paint on the picture with my brush.
Step 4. Here I started suggesting the streaks of sunlight. So important to get enough value contrast!
Step 5. To get the flowers to really stand out, I knew I had to get dark enough in the background. I wanted the big shadow (from the windowsill) to have a soft edge, because it is being cast from farther away (check the original photo above). I painted in the napkin roll on the left, and suggested the one on top with purple, but took this out later. Again, I purposely used backruns to create interest in this shadow area.
Step 6. Now I started painting in the mums. For the white mums. I used some purplish, yellowish shadows, while for the green spider mum, I just mixed a bright green and filled in the spaces. Here are all the colors I used in this painting: Winsor & Newton cerulean blue, cobalt blue medium, permanent violet, quinacridone gold, Hansa yellow by Da Vinci (an arylide yellow), and peacock blue by Holbein (a thalo blue).
Step 7. I added the tea or coffee (whichever you prefer) using quin gold. Also added the flower centers with a mixture of dark colors. I went back into the mugs and tried to suggest a more glossy surface by glazing with some hard edges (glossy surfaces have more hard edges reflected, while matte surfaces have soft internal edges). I also painted the rest of the windowsill shadow on the top side, plus suggested the edge of the table with a strong dark. While the big wash was wet, I spattered the picture with some cerulean blue. I love to do that! This is as far as I have gotten. I am thinking of adding a tea bag or a spoon in the upper left, sort of hidden behind the blue mug.

Glock handguns are terrific for hidden bring. Their low MSRP makes them easy to hide. Since of their steel sights, they are not invisible on X-ray machines. The concern is how much are Glocks worth. Let ‘s analyze a few aspects that assist determine the value of a Glock. A Glock Cocked To Your Knot.
Glock handguns have a low MSRP
The low MSRP of Glock handguns makes them a popular choice among novices and knowledgeable shooters. The pistols have a low trigger pull, which is rather mushy and can cause shooters to shoot and get less accurate shots. These pistols have a trigger connector that can be changed to make the trigger pull less mushy or to increase the weight of the pull. The trigger of a Glock handgun isn ‘t best, it ‘s still completely practical for self-defense and pastime shooting.
There are a number of Glock designs to choose from, including the Glock 42, Glock 43, and the Glock 43. The Glock 42 is not as slim as the Glock 43, but it is still a pocket-friendly gun.
In addition to their low MSRP, Glock pistols are also understood for their toughness. They have high dependability and can withstand abuse even in the most extreme conditions. They likewise include a special cocking mechanism that reduces the load on the recoil spring. On the other hand, most other striker-fired pistols count on the recoil spring to cock the striker.
The Glock 19 handgun was initially produced in 1988. It has developed into a number of generations since then. The business ‘s quality-conscious mindset triggered it to make several variations of the design. Each brand-new design improved the handgun and its functions. The Glock Gen 4 and Gen 5 models have actually ended up being popular with civilians and self-defense shooters alike. A Glock Cocked To Your Knot.
The Baltimore Police Department, Los Angeles Police Department, Miami Police Department, and Maryland State Police are all known to utilize the Glock pistol. The Edmonton Police Service, Calgary Police Service, and Ottawa Police Service use Glock handguns for their patrols.
Glock produces five different designs of its subcompact pistols. These pistols come in a range of sizes.
Among the advantages of owning a Glock is their easy concealability. They are little adequate to be hidden, yet big enough to compete with full-sized weapons. Furthermore, they are small enough not to unconform to smaller sized hands. As a result, Glocks are considered workhorses by numerous. Here are a few suggestions to assist you bring your Glock in an inconspicuous manner.
Glock handguns come in numerous sizes and designs. To find the best one for your needs, check out the Glock pistol contrast guide.
For those who want to bring hidden, there are 2 popular Glock designs: the g42 and the g43. Both guns are simple and small to hide, and both are popular amongst concealed providers. The Glock 43 has a slim profile and is 3.39 inches long. This makes it one of the easiest hidden handguns available.
Another fantastic pistol for concealment is the Glock 48. This single-stack handgun is the best size to conceal. Its little profile makes it easy to carry inside the waistband. Its single-stack style is also comfy to bring, and the extended magazine has a pinky extension to make it much easier to hide.
A smaller grip, much shorter sight radius, and less recoil make concealment easier. It ‘s a big advantage, particularly if you plan on concealing the gun in a hidden carry scenario.
The slim-profile G48 and G43x designs are best for hidden bring. The slim frame and low-profile design make them easy to hide and are both striker-fired. For the most compact Glock, think about the G48.
When deciding between a polymer or steel sight for your Glock, there are numerous different elements to think about. Of all, metal sights are far more long lasting than polymer sights.
Second, if you ‘re interested in competitors and target shooting, there are a variety of options available. While factory sights are usually decent for self-defense use, they ‘re not as excellent as those used for target or competition shooting. To fix this issue, Glock provides updated sights for its pistol models. Most Glock handguns come standard with low-cost plastic sights, which are prone to breakage. The standard sights are great if you ‘re not looking for a sight for competition.
If you ‘re going to use your Glock during the night, a night sight might be the finest option. The Meprolight Feet Bullseye is a popular night sight for Glocks, and it ‘s an excellent option if you ‘re a nighttime shooter.
A Glock Cocked To Your Knot
While Glocks do have steel sights, you can likewise acquire a pair of night sights. These sights are also long lasting and don ‘t need to be cleaned with harsh solvents.
Fiber optic sights are another terrific alternative for Glock handguns. These sights are easy to show the sight and align in any environment. They can be utilized even in low-light situations, and are a best option for a competitive shooting environment. In addition to being visible in low light, these sights are geared up with tritium for included security and visibility.
Depending on the design, Glocks have either low or high sights. For 9mm GLOCK handguns, they have a low sight, while the 10mm GLOCKs have high sights.
There are a number of Glock models to choose from, including the Glock 42, Glock 43, and the Glock 43. The Glock 42 is not as slim as the Glock 43, however it is still a pocket-friendly weapon. To solve this issue, Glock uses upgraded sights for its pistol designs. While Glocks do have steel sights, you can likewise acquire a set of night sights. For 9mm GLOCK pistols, they have a low sight, while the 10mm GLOCKs have high sights. A Glock Cocked To Your Knot.

In recent years, VPNs have gained popularity with a rapid increase in their use. VPNs are mainly used to encrypt online traffic to ensure a private and secure connection. Yet another reason most people use a VPN on their Apple TV is for streaming.
Whether you want live TV or on-demand content, Apple TV offers plenty of options for viewers. However, due to geographic restrictions, you may have trouble accessing some content that is not available in your region. A VPN can hide your real IP address and mask your geographic location. This will help you bypass geo-restrictions on your Apple TV and stream any content you want.
A VPN also encrypts your online traffic, so everything you do on your Apple TV is protected from the prying eyes of your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and intruders.
If you love watching movies and TV shows on your Apple TV and want to extend your streaming experience, you need the best VPN for Apple TV. Read on to discover some key benefits of using a VPN on your Apple TV.
1. Access geographically restricted streaming services
Due to content licensing agreements, streaming services around the world are geographically restricted. Most streaming platforms are only available in certain regions, and some platforms like Netflix offer different libraries of content for different countries. Some popular geo-blocked streaming platforms include Hulu, BBC iPlayer, HBO Max, Showtime, and more.
BBC iPlayer is only available in the UK. As a result, if you try to access BBC iPlayer on your Apple TV from abroad, you will get a geolocation error stating that the service is not available in your region. The same goes for Hulu, since it’s only available in the US, so you can’t watch them from abroad.
The good news is that by using a VPN on your Apple TV, you can easily bypass these geo-restrictions and access whatever content you want. For example, if you are connecting to a server in the UK, you can make it appear as if you are trying to access BBC iPlayer from within the UK. This way, you can connect to any server location and trick streaming services into thinking you’re accessing from an approved country/region.
So if you’re abroad, you can use a VPN to catch up on your latest shows from BBC iPlayer or other streaming services on your Apple TV.
2. Watch exclusive shows on Netflix
Unlike most streaming services, Netflix is not restricted to any region, but offers different content libraries for different regions. For example, viewers in Canada get a different library compared to viewers in the UK.
Therefore, UK or Canadian viewers cannot watch Criminal Minds on Netflix as it is only available on US and Japan Netflix libraries. If you search for Criminal Minds on Netflix, it will bring up results for related titles.
Fortunately, with a VPN, you can get the most out of your Netflix subscription and unblock any Netflix library you want on your Apple TV. Most VPN services offer servers in multiple countries, so you can connect to any server you want and change your IP address. This way, you can stream region-exclusive shows and movies on your Apple TV.
It’s worth noting that using a VPN to unblock Netflix is not considered illegal. It contradicts Netflix’s terms of service, but it’s perfectly safe and legal. We haven’t heard of anyone having their account terminated for using a VPN to stream Netflix.
3. Avoid ISP throttling
Online tasks like streaming, gaming, and downloading large files consume a lot of data. If you are a heavy streamer, it is likely that your ISP (Internet Service Provider) has throttled your bandwidth to avoid network congestion. The result? You may get slow connection speeds causing streaming issues like buffering, lag, and long load times.
In short, you will need to pause every few minutes and wait for the video to load.
How to prevent the ISP from throttling your bandwidth? Use a VPN. When you connect to a VPN, it encrypts your Internet traffic, keeping it hidden from your ISP. As a result, your ISP can’t see what you’re doing online and you’re less likely to experience bandwidth throttling.
VPNs are also quite useful when it comes to online gaming. So if you’re gaming on your Apple TV, a VPN will ensure minimal lags and pings.
These are just a few of the reasons why you should use a VPN on your Apple TV. With a VPN, you can also enjoy live TV and sporting events like the NFL, Wimbledon, Europa League, and more from anywhere in the world for free.
Instead of paying high subscription fees, you can unlock free live TV streaming platforms on your Apple TV and enjoy live coverage of events without paying a single penny.
If you love streaming, opting for a VPN to use on your Apple TV is definitely worth considering to enhance your streaming experience.

There is a global misperception often forwarded by Amhara expansionists that Ethiopia has been a nation for centuries. But instead the area we call Ethiopia came into being less than 200 years ago when Amharic kings become dominant over the Tigrayan monarchy and then conquered Cushitic peoples in Oromia, the Southern Nations, the Afar, and were “gifted” part of Somalia by European powers. In reality the Tigray have always thought of themselves as a nation in an empire.
Recently the world was stunned when the very small region of Tigray managed to retake most of its territory back from the federal forces of the Ethiopian national government last summer who had one of the largest armies in Africa. To those who know the past 100 years this is not so surprising. A look at the recent history of the Ethiopian empire, a collection of many ethnic groups struggling for dominance, over the past century lends insight to current events.
How Western Civilization Has Looked at Ethiopia
Many scholars had looked at what had happened to Ethiopia in the 19th and 20th centuries trying to understand its evolution and how it would progress. Donald Levine wrote in his work Greater Ethiopia: The Evolution of a Multiethnic Society that Ethiopia would develop a national identity due to experience of war, famine, religious conflict, trade development etc. The dominance of Amharic emperors during this time period until the late 1960s favored the development of an idealistic concept of Amharic elitism as a central theme as well.
Although many languages both Cushitic and Semitic are spoken in Ethiopia, for approximately the past 150 years the Amhara leadership of the country (beginning with the monarchy) as well as the Ethiopian orthodox church essentially mandated that the Amhara language would be the official language of commerce and government. Elite schools and universities taught in Amharic thus its speakers were seen as superior to the non-speakers of Amharic. Those wishing to become “educated” had to learn Amharic. Political ideas and policies thus became mostly associated with this Amharic elitism. Until just the past two decades attendance of the prestigious Addis Ababa University was limited to the Amhara.
What is the Tigray Identity
The Tigray people claim their ancestry to the Axumite empire which was started by the Queen of Sheba, a Biblical figure, who lived thousands of years ago ( an aristocrat of the ancient Saba people who lived about the eastern and western areas bordering the Red Sea and spoke a Semitic language). Legend has it she conceived a son with King Solomon of Israel and converted to Judaism. Centuries later the Axumite empire converted to Christianity under King Ezana. Although early kings of Northern Ethiopia were Tigray they eventually lost power to the Amhara whose background is also related to that of the Tigray. The Tigray have a long tradition of being a warrior clan. In fact going back centuries in both domestic battles and battles against foreign invaders their abilities as fighters and commanders of armies were always sought. At same time these qualities have always fostered suspicion by other ethnic groups especially when the military services of the Tigray were no longer needed. Most recently the term Tigray is most often used to describe the region while the term Tegaru is coming more into use to describe its people and now even being used to differentiate them from Eritreans.
The Rise of the Tigray
The rise of the Tigray who make up only 6% of the population of Ethiopia to lead an alliance that would topple a powerful government without any outside assistance starting from essentially no resources was unexplainable to scholars. Daniel Young a journalist with the Sudan Times began to follow their rise in 1988 and eventually wrote the definitive scholarly work, The Peasant Revolution of Ethiopia.
He did numerous interviews with peasants after gaining their trust. He noted then as did others that although there has always been talk about a greater nation for the most part over the past century there have always been nationalist movements within Ethiopia. Ethiopia has always been a empire and not a nation. Although the goal of the Tigray (Tigray Peoples Liberation Front) was primarily to overthrow the Derg (a quasi communist-socialist multiethnic movement which included many military leaders and was supported by the Russian communist party) the TPLF developed the concept that to be successful they had to gain great support from the countryside peasants. One important component was they incorporated educated Tigray women into leadership roles. The Tigray were remarkable for developing and sticking to their ideals and goals, creating alliances, strong action against dissent for which they have been criticized, and finally for basing their strength from a bottom up approach which is significantly different then the Amhara elite model which is a top down scenario.
Bottom Up versus Elitist Lead Revolution
From a social science perspective there has always been controversy over whether a revolutionary movement can be driven by perceived peasant led initiatives (bottom up) or by elitist lead initiatives. The successful revolt of the Vietnamese against French Colonialism and American interference is often demonstrated as a model of the bottom up approach. Thus what we are seeing now is a repeat of this ongoing struggle in Ethiopia of peasant based vs elite based focus and empire vs nation identity once again. How will it turn out?

March 9/Tokyo/Business Wire -- Morinaga Milk Industry Co. Ltd. announced it has received a no objection letter from FDA in response to its GRAS notification for the proprietary probiotic strain Bifidobacterium longum BB536. The official FDA affirmation that the ingredient is GRAS paves the way for the highly researched probiotic to be included in functional foods.
"BB536 has been used by Morinaga in our own food products with great success for more than 30 years and has been sold as a raw material to clients overseas in more than 30 countries for use in food and supplements," said Tohru Imamura, general manager of Morinaga's International Department. "We are very excited that its newly achieved GRAS status will allow U.S. manufacturers to bring the digestive benefits of BB536 to the American public."
BB536 is a human strain of beneficial bacteria developed by Morinaga in the 1960s. It is one of the most researched probiotic strains in the world. Numerous published human clinical trials have found that BB536 provides a natural defense against episodic digestive upsets, including constipation, diarrhea, abdominal discomfort, gas and bloating. In addition, it improves the bodily ratio of beneficial to harmful bacteria and decreases ammonia and putrefactive products in the digestive tract.
The characteristics of BB536 are as follows:
* Of human origin, meaning it is a natural species of the human intestinal microbiotaSafety confirmed by DNA sequence analysis, toxicology testing and clinical studiesHigh stability due to the unique culturing method
* Supported by more than 70 scientific reports, including 35 human clinical trials
* Manufactured in a HACCP certified facility
* BB536-added products have been approved as FOSHU(Food for specified health use) by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare
"A GRAS determination requires that assurance of safety for an ingredient be completed using the most current and rigorous of scientific and regulatory standards," said Dr. Claire Kruger, CEO and COO, Spherix Incorporated, and one of the expert panel members of the meeting for attaining the self-affirmed GRAS for the BB536. "The determination of GRAS status for BB536 and safety of ingestion of this product was confirmed by a thorough expert panel review of this probiotic, including an evaluation of the taxonomy, physiology, and prior use of the organism in addition to review of studies of antibiotic susceptibility, genetic sequencing, animal toxicology, and human clinical trials. The FDA had no questions regarding the conclusion of GRAS status for BB536 contained in the notification submitted to the agency."

The Trudeau government is being criticized by the Conservatives for spending $400 million on bike lanes and “active transportation.”
Last week, Infrastructure Minister Catherine McKenna announced the creation of an active transportation fund to pay for walking and biking infrastructure
Conservative Infrastructure and Communities Critic Andrew Scheer slammed the Liberals for spending millions on projects like bike lanes when infrastructure crucial to the Canadian economy needs improvement.
“The Liberals have a terrible record on getting existing shovel-ready projects approved and built,” Scheer told True North.
“To help Canadians emerge from the pandemic as strong as possible, Canada needs an infrastructure plan that prioritizes job creation and economic growth. The federal government should be focused on projects like expanding ports and transportation so we can sell more goods to the world. It should be focused on things like highways and public transit so people get home from work quicker.”
The $400 million is being taken from funding previously announced for public transit infrastructure.
Some of the funds have already been committed to several projects, including a footbridge in Ottawa and a bike lane in Halifax. The fund is expected to operate for the next five years.
“It should be focused on things like upgrading water plants so communities can grow, Canadians can have clean drinking water, and less pollution is emitted in our waterways,” he said.
“Bike lanes are the types of projects that should be left to municipalities. Mayors and councils can decide if their taxpayers should pay for bike lanes and bike paths.”
In recent years, many of Canada’s large cities have been constructing active transportation infrastructure such as bike lanes independent of assistance from the federal government.


LOS ANGELES/NEW YORK (Reuters) - Starz Entertainment will pull all of its movies and television shows from Netflix Inc’s streaming service early next year, depriving Netflix customers from online viewing of new releases out of two major Hollywood studios.
Pay-TV operator Starz, controlled by John Malone’s Liberty Media, said on Thursday it had ended talks to renew a deal that expires February 28. After that date, Starz will stop providing its content, which includes exclusive rights to first-run Sony Corp and Walt Disney Co movies, for streaming on Netflix.
Shares of Netflix were down 8.7 percent at $213 in after-hours trade, from a close on the Nasdaq of $233.27.
Netflix was offering to pay somewhere in the $200 million to $300 million range annually for rights to stream Starz content, a source familiar with the negotiations said. Starz balked at that offer, the source said.
Netflix Chief Executive Reed Hastings said in June it “wouldn’t be shocking” to pay up to $200 million, a figure some analysts had predicted.
The original online streaming rights are believed to have been agreed for around $30 million a year four years ago, people familiar with the deal have said.
Starz, in a statement, called its decision to end talks with Netflix “a result of our strategy to protect the premium nature of our brand by preserving the appropriate pricing and packaging” of its content.
The news came the same day that an unpopular Netflix price hike of as much as $6 per month took effect. The breakdown with Starz was a surprise because investors had expected the parties to reach a deal, said Brett Harriss, an analyst with Gabelli & Co.
“Netflix just effectively raised prices by 60 percent, and a big chunk of their content walked away,” Harriss said.
Thursday’s announcement could open up the possibility that Starz might now court another online streaming provider, such as Amazon.com Inc or Google Inc’s Youtube.
Starz was not immediately available for further comment.
Netflix spokesman Steve Swasey said the company was “confident we can take the money we had earmarked for Starz renewal next year and spend it with other content providers to maintain or even improve the Netflix experience.”
Netflix said Starz movies and shows account for just 8 percent of U.S. subscribers’ viewing, and the company had projected that to fall to 5-6 percent by the first quarter of 2012, right when the deal dies.
Starz is the exclusive distributor of first-run Sony and Disney movies on pay-TV in the United States under an agreement that allows it to distribute the programing wholesale on multiple platforms, including online streaming.
But Netflix — which has grown faster than partners expected — triggered a deal clause in the first quarter when it announced it now has more than 22.8 million subscribers in the United States, of which nearly two-thirds were streaming videos, sources told Reuters in June.
Under terms of the original contract, the trigger allowed Sony to ask Starz for better financial terms, the sources had said.
Sony’s content already was removed from the Netflix streaming service while negotiations were underway. Disney movies were accessible.

Britney Spears made a video post on her Instagram page where she answered a few questions asked by the fans, on them being if she would ever take the stage again.
Spears who hasn’t performed in public since 2018 is under a court-ordered conservatorship. She took to her Instagram handle to answer three questions that she said have been posted by her fans.
One question was, “Am I ready to take the stage again? Will I ever take the stage again,” to which Spears replied, “I have no idea. I’m having fun right now, I’m in a transition in my life and I’m enjoying myself. So,”
In the comment section, the fans have repeatedly asked for her well being as the conspiracy theories about her being kept against her will and sending mysterious messages for help through her Instagram posts have been growing immensely. One said, “Baby the ONLY question we ask you is IF YOU ARE OK.” Another said, “GURL ANSWER THE REAL ONES.” A third said, “Every post like this leaves me with more questions than answers.”
The messages also come a week before her plans of addressing the Los Angeles court overseeing the conservatorship that has managed her personal and business affairs since her mental health breakdown in 2008, via The Indian Express.
The 39-years-old singer-songwriter didn’t talk about the court conservatorship but spoke about some other questions that she said her fans have asked, “One was about her favourite business trip (to Italy where she stayed with designer Donatella Versace.) The other was about her shoe size (a size 7.)”
She last performed on stage in October 2018 at the Formula One Grand Prix in Austin, Texas, at the end of her world tour, “Piece of Me.”

|"Red and Yellow Bouquet"|
Art making is fun, but can be fatiguing. You paint all day; by the end of the day you feel pooped out. The last thing you want to do in the evening is more art-making. That is why so few professional artists I know of sketch daily. I can come up with only two names! After a hard day of painting, which is in many ways drawing with a brush, you don't feel like picking up a pen or pencil and draw for fun. You'd rather watch TV or read a book. Or go to bed early. Quite a few artists create illustrated travel journals, but don't expect them to keep it up at home.
I am embarrassed to admit that I was not an exception. Until a few weeks ago, I used my home-made journals as scrapbooks for printouts of my blog entries and family photos. All I can say for myself is that I have been keeping a pictorial journal for more than five years; the current book is Vol. 42!
But my beautiful journal books with Fabriano 140 lb watercolor paper were meant to be more than the receptacles of photo printouts. I was supposed to fill my journal pages with drawings, paintings, and insightful comments. Perhaps, that was the problem. I may have been intimidated by the high-quality material; how do I mess it up with insignificant sketches? A terrible dilemma it was.
One day, I was rereading Danny Gregory's Creative License. He said something about how trees died for us and that's why we must "waste" our sketchbooks by drawing things inside. A light bulb went off! I have stacks of sketchbooks, pens, and other art supplies that haven't seen the daylight for ages. What am I hoarding them for? For afterlife? It was time to use them up!
Here are some of my daily sketches--some done from life, others from photos--I want to share with my readers. Several led to paintings. You see, creativity thrives with practice.
|"Flowers from My Garden" (pen and wash)|
|"Smithsonian Castle Rose Garden" (pen and wash)|
|"Limes and Lemon" (pen and wash)|
|"Pink Hydrangea" (watercolor and water-soluble crayon)|
|"Snow White and the Huntsman" (water-soluble pencil)|
|"After Shirley Trevena's painting" (watercolor)|
|"General Stonewall Jackson's Equestrian Statue" (graphite)|
|"Ducks" (Micron pens)|
|"Clock Tower at Ellicott City, MD" (Micron pen)|
|"Cherubs at National Gallery of Arts" (watercolor)|
|"Limoncello Bottle" (pen and wash)|
|"Flute Concert" (Micron pen, 5.5 x 7")|
The very last image was drawn during my daughter's end-of-the year flute concert at the Levine School of Music ten days ago. I noticed a boy who was playing with his flute while sitting out advanced pieces. He was bored out of his mind; I wasn't because I was occupied! You may notice that some sketches are on a page with my blog entry or photo. I tried to be imaginative to come up with an image that fit the odd shape and shared a theme.
Now the question is this: how long will I keep up with my daily sketching? A month, six months, a year? I hope forever!

Real estate group names Gateway Plaza Project of the Year
Richmond’s newest skyscraper, Gateway Plaza, was named Project of the Year for 2016 during an annual awards event Tuesday evening sponsored by the Greater Richmond Association for Commercial Real Estate (GRACRE).
The winning transaction at the event was the renewal of a lease for a headquarters site for Hamilton Beach at the Innsbrook Corporate Center in Henrico County.
Nearly 300 people from the region’s commercial real estate community gathered for the 15th annual recognition of the region’s top projects and transactions at the Country Club of Virginia. This year’s awards came from a field of more than 60 nominations — a good sign, officials said, that the market is back.
“The market is very strong. We've had a lot of good properties built in the last year,” said Frank Martino, GRACRE president and director of the Central Virginia office of L. F. Jennings, a general contractor. In fact, GRACRE added some new categories this year to accommodate for an influx of new projects. “We had to add categories the spectrum was so broad,” said Jane DuFrane, director of leasing for Highwoods Properties and a co-emcee for the event with John Mercer, an attorney who specializes in real estate law for Williams Mullen.
Gateway Plaza, Richmond’s first new downtown Richmond office tower in two decades, opened last September amid great fanfare while the city was hosting an international bike race. The developer/owner is Chicago-based Clayco Realty Group. The glass and aluminum skyscraper replaced a surface parking lot at 800 East Canal Street.
The $124 million, 315,000-square-foot tower is home to law firm McGuireWoods LLP and its public relations arm, McGuire Woods Consulting LLC. The law firm leases 230,000 square feet on eight floors and serves as the building’s anchor tenant.
Other tenants include TowneBank, which will open a branch on the ground floor and will lease additional office space on other floors for its regional headquarters.
The building has a dramatic foyer with massive murals of the James River rapids along with other modern features, including coffee bars and white boards.
The broker for the project was Colliers International; the architect, Forum Studio; the lender; New York-based Lexington Realty.
Other winning projects were:
Mixed Use: The Landmark at 1700 in Richmond, a rehab project of 19,500 square feet with 22 apartments. The owner/developer is 1700 Main LLC.
Multifamily Adaptive Reuse: The Preserve at Scott’s Addition. This was a $33 million renovation of a 44-acre site that was the former home of a Coca Cola bottling factory. Owner/developer Spy Rock Real Estate transformed the site into 124 new apartments and 70 redeveloped apartments.
Transformational Impact: Libbie Mill Library, a Henrico County branch that opened as part of an 80-acre, mixed-use project off Staples Mill Road.
Hospitality: Quirk Hotel, a new 75-room, six-story boutique hotel in Richmond’s downtown arts district. The owner/developer is Ted and Katie Ukrop while W. M. Jordan served as the general contractor and 3north as the architect.
Best Historic Renovation: Powers-Taylor Building, office, Shockoe Slip, downtown Richmond. The owner/developer is 13 South 13th Street LLC, and Fultz Architects served as the architect and interior designer.
The transaction of the year award was a lease renewal for the Hamilton Beach headquarters at Innsbrook Corporate Center. The deal included a retrofit of two buildings to meet the needs of a millennial workforce. Highwoods Properties Inc. was the seller/landlord broker, and JLL was the buyer /tenant broker in a lease valued at $25.7 million that kept the headquarters site on Waterfront Drive.
Other winning transactions included:
Urban Pioneer Transaction: Manchester Town Center. Alleghany Warehouse Co. Inc. sold a 12.8-acre parcel in Manchester for $3.7 million to a local developer who plans to develop the land on Semmes Ave. into a mixed-use project. CBRE|Richmond and Cushman Wakefield | Thalhimer brokered the deal.
Land Sale Transaction: Stone Brewing Co. JLL served as the buyer/tenant broker and Jane Ferrara, with the city of Richmond, was the seller/landlord broker in a deal for Richmond’s Economic Development Authority that helped convince California-based Stone Brewing to open a 215,000-square-foot East Coast brewery on a site in Fulton Bottom. The city’s economic development authority is issuing bonds for the construction of the brewery facility, now under construction, and will lease it to Stone.

This webinar comprised three bitesize updates on the latest key legal developments.
In this event, we covered the following topics:
Who pays for fire safety repairs?
Barry Hembling, Construction Partner
Responsibility for fire safety defects is far from straightforward – landlord, contractor or tenants? Does new legislation provide welcome clarity or create more questions than answers?
Final Accounts in Construction Projects – are they too little, too late?
Ryland Ash, Dispute Resolution Partner
In current unpredictable times for construction, where material costs fluctuate, margins are tight and labour often scarce, cashflow is ever more important. Yet many common contracts are making parties wait many months or even years to be paid. Something needs to change if we are to keep projects moving and parties afloat.
Don’t overlook legal nuisance
Dev Desai, Dispute Resolution Partner
Following the recent Supreme Court decision that Tate Modern’s viewing gallery constituted a legal nuisance to neighbours in a residential block, what is the impact for developers and landowners in confined urban environments?
Where are we going with construction price inflation?
Alistair Wardle, Associate Quantity Surveyor, Stace LLP
Construction projects have been suffering from rising labour and material costs. With the RICS due to issue their latest quarterly briefing just ahead of our 15 June 2023 webinar, what is the current market position and what developments in construction price inflation can we expect next?
The session was moderated by Theresa Mohammed.
This webinar is for anyone with an interest in construction and development (including developer, contractor, consultant or funder) in any asset class, who is looking to manage risks from contract placement, wants advice on live projects or guidance regarding dispute avoidance.
Although focussed primarily on the UK market, the legal principles discussed may be relevant to projects in any jurisdiction.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), “Food allergies are a growing food safety and public health concern that affect an estimated 8% of children in the United States. That’s 1 in 13 children, or about 2 students per classroom.” If your child is among this number, you’ll want to bring them to an expert allergist at Charleston ENT & Allergy for allergy testing to confirm their food allergies.
What Causes Allergies?
Your child’s immune system works to protect their body from diseases, viruses and infections. But if they have food allergies, their immune system mistakes harmless foods such as eggs, milk, soy, wheat, fish, shellfish, peanuts and tree nuts from Food Lion in Kings Plaza as dangerous intruders. An allergic reaction and allergy symptoms occur when the body is exposed to one of these harmless substances, known as an allergen, and the immune system overreacts.
In order to fight off the intruder, their immune system releases antibodies called Immunoglobulin E (IgE), which causes their cells to release histamine. Histamine increases mucus production and triggers inflammation, which causes your allergy symptoms.
What Are the Signs of a Food Allergy?
Signs of a food allergy include:
- Itching or tingling in the mouth
- Raised, red rash (hives)
- Swelling of the face, mouth or throat
- Difficulty swallowing
- Wheezing or shortness of breath
- Nausea and vomiting
- Abdominal pain or diarrhea
In rare cases, a serious allergic reaction known as anaphylaxis can occur, causing symptoms such as:
- Swollen tongue
- Breathing difficulties
- Tight chest
- Trouble swallowing or speaking
Types of Allergy Tests
Below are some of the ways allergists test for food allergies in children.
- Symptom history. Some studies refer to a history of allergic reactions as the “cornerstone of diagnosis of food allergy.” Without a history of allergic reactions, it’s difficult to interpret other tests accurately. That said, there are tests that can be used in conjunction with taking a symptom history.
- Skin test. For this test, an allergist will prick the skin of your child’s forearm or back with several potential allergens, or they will place droplets of the allergens on their skin and scratch underneath it. If a raised bump called a wheal appears, your child is allergic to that food.
- Blood test. For this test, an allergist takes a small vial of blood from your child and tests it against suspected allergens to try and detect the presence of IgE antibodies.
- Food challenge test. One of the more effective tests entails your child being introduced to foods in an allergy clinic and closely monitored for a reaction by medical personnel.
For more information or to schedule an appointment with an allergist, call Charleston ENT & Allergy today.


The Islamabad High Court (IHC) on Monday ordered high-ups of Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (Pims) to resubmit the medical report of two ‘accused’ which was earlier prepared by a senior doctor without due procedure.
IHC judge Noorul Haq Qureshi issued the order after hospital officials failed to comply with a previous court order which had called for careful examination of all certificates issued by Pims Deputy Director Farrukh Kamal who had certified a female suspect as a ‘virgin’ and her co-accused ‘physically fit’ without following due procedure.
Earlier, the court had ordered a probe into the matter and sought a fresh report.

During the hearing on Monday, it also emerged that the medical samples of the accused including a girl, arrested from a house in the capital’s suburbs in July for drinking and partying, have been lost.
The court also directed police officials to submit a detailed report in this regard within 10 days.
During the previous hearing, Justice Qureshi had observed that the doctor was not authorised to medically examine the woman and he did not even adopt due course while examining the male accused.
The judge had observed that for the physical fitness and virginity of female, the doctor’s certification appears to be an attempt to prove the innocence of suspects.
The case pertains to a raid at a house in Bahria Town in July this year where the police had arrested a girl and five men and seized a bottle of liquor from their possession. The FIR stated that a man and the woman were ‘drunk and dancing naked in a room while the others were drinking in another room.’
The suspects had confessed that the girl was brought for prostitution purposes, stated the police in the FIR.
However, with the passage of time and alleged involvement of influential people, the investigation officer was given a show-cause and an inquiry was initiated against him as the high-ups found ‘irregularities’ in the investigation.
Later, the investigation was transferred to DSP CIA Basheer Ahmed Noon, who reinvestigated the matter, declared the suspects innocent, dropped some sections from the FIR and prepared a discharge report.
However, when the charge-sheet containing minor charges was presented before a judicial magistrate, he turned down the ‘discharge report’. Subsequently, the matter was challenged before the high court.
The court had ordered the SP Investigation to entrust the case to an honest officer.
In his remarks, Justice Qureshi had said that instead of finding the truth and bringing the culprits to justice, officials start patronising and protecting the accused.

He was sent to the neurology ward, where he underwent a week of grueling MRIs and CT scans, spinal taps and blood tests. Doctors found no physical injuries. Next came a week of observation in the psychiatric ward. “They wanted to make sure this wasn’t a put-on job,” says Jeff, who took IQ tests and solved puzzles. Under hypnosis he told doctors his wife and children had been killed by a drunk driver. In fact, Jeff’s ex-wife, Melanie, was still alive, and they had no children; experts say it’s not unusual for patients to come up with false memories under hypnosis.
Tantalizingly, Jeff said he remembered his wife’s first name: Penny.
The real Penny still had no idea that her fiancé was alive in a hospital in Denver, where officials were now referring to him as Amnesia Al. By then, hospital staffers had summoned police to help search for his identity. They ran his fingerprints through crime databases, but nothing matched.
Jeff didn’t know it, but on October 18 he turned 40. Penny made him a cake. Friends and family continued to scour Washington State and western Canada for signs of him. They checked banking and telephone records (no activity) and even asked if Jeff’s cell phone could be located with tracking technology (it couldn’t).
Back at the hospital, staffers realized they could do no more for Jeff, and he was transferred to a halfway house. Most of the tenants were mentally ill or had drug dependencies. “They all had Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous,” says Jeff, “but there was no Anonymous Anonymous for me to go to.”
As Jeff sank into despair, two Denver police detectives, Virginia Quinones and Sonny Jackson, decided to publicize his plight, hoping a relative would come forward. “I felt for the guy because everybody has memories to talk about,” says Quinones, “but he had nothing to share.”
On October 22 Jeff walked into a Denver studio to appear on network news. “I’m asking for help to find out who I am,” he said to the cameras.
The phone rang that morning at Penny’s house. It was her brother Greg: “Jeff’s on TV!”
Within minutes, Penny was e-mailing photos of Jeff to Denver police.
“They start laying pictures out on the table,” says Jeff, “and I’m just shocked. I’m going, ‘That’s me, and that’s me, and that’s me.’ And I just started bawling my face off. ‘Somebody knows I’m here!’”
That afternoon, Jeff and Penny spoke on the telephone.
“Do you remember me?” Penny asked.
“Well, I am Penny, and I am your fiancée. We used to know each other quite well.”
Aristotle believed that memory resides in the heart, and you won’t get much argument from Jeff and Penny. On Sunday evening, Jeff and Detective Jackson boarded a plane for Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Waiting in the terminal, Penny was frightened. What if Jeff didn’t want her? “Everybody said, ‘He fell in love with you once, he’ll fall in love with you again,’” she recalls. “But the what-if was there.” She told herself she would let him go if that’s what he wanted, and they met and hugged for the first time, again.
“I’ve been looking for you,” said Jeff.
“I’ve been looking for you too,” said Penny between tears.
They’d been apart for 47 days—a lifetime to Jeff. And even though he had no memory of Penny, his heart was his guide. “That’s all I had to go on,” he says. “I had to trust something. And it just felt right.”
When they arrived home, Taco the Chihuahua practically leaped into Jeff’s arms. Bedtime was only briefly awkward. Intent on giving Jeff the space he needed, Penny said, “I can go to the spare room or you can go to the spare room …”
“No,” said Jeff. He just wanted to be hugged and touched.
