Development of the Human Zygote
Hundreds of thousands of times a year a single-celled zygote, smaller
than a grain of sand, transforms into an amazingly complex network of cells, a
newborn infant. Through cellular differentiation and growth, this process is
completed with precision time and time again, but very rarely a mistake in the
"blueprint" of growth and development does occur. Following is a description of
how the pathways of this intricate web are followed and the mistakes which
happen when they are not.
The impressive process of differentiation changes a single-cell into a
complicated system of ...view middle of the document...
The inner cell mass, now
called the embryonic disc, differentiates into a thick plate of ectoderm and an
underlying layer of endoderm. This cellular multiplication in the embryonic
disc marks the beginning of a thickening in the midline that is called the
primitive streak. Cells spread out laterally from the primitive streak between
the ectoderm and the endoderm to form the mesoderm. These three germ layers,
which are the origins of many structures as shown in Table 1, begin to develop.

During the third week of development, the cephalic (head) and caudal
(tail) end of the embryo become distinguishable. Most of the substance of the
early embryo will enter into the formation of the head. Blood vessels begin to
develop in the mesoderm and a primitive heart may also be observed (Harrison,
1969). Cells rapidly spread away from the primitive streak to eventually form
the neural groove, which will form a tube to the gut. When the neural folds
develop on either side of the groove, the underlying mesoderm forms segmentally
arranged blocks of mesoderm called somite. These give rise to the dermis of the
skin, most skeletal muscles, and precursors of vertebral bodies. the otocyst,
which later becomes the inner ear, and the lens placodes, which later form the
lenses of the adult eyes, are derived from the ectoderm.
The strand of cardiovascular functioning is apparent during the fourth
week. The heart shows early signs of different chambers and begins to pump
blood through the embryo which simultaneously has well developed its kidneys,
thyroid gland, stomach, pancreas, lungs, esophagus, gall bladder, larynx, nd
trachea (Carlson, 1981).

"It is going to spread far and wide within the internal systems of organizations - this is turning into the biggest cybersecurity incident I've ever seen", UK-based security architect Kevin Beaumont said.
The Spanish energy ministry said it had "confirmation of various cyber attacks targeting Spanish companies", adding that the attackers used ransomware which blocks access to files until a ransom is paid.
"The investigation is at an early stage but we believe the malware variant is Wanna Decryptor", the NHS says, referring to software that is being blamed for a number of ransom attacks Friday.
A window appeared on screens of infected computers that demanded payment with the digital currency bitcoin in order to regain access to files, a Telefonica spokesman said.
As almost 45 NHS organisations from London to Scotland were hit in the "ransomware" attack on Friday, patients of the state-funded countrywide service faced chaos as appointments and surgeries had to be cancelled.
The BBC understands up to 39 NHS organisations and some GP practices have been affected.
The minister said lessons had to be learned from the attack.
Wainwright said Europol had been concerned about cyber security in the healthcare sector, which deals with a lot of sensitive data, but declined to comment on whether Britain's National Health Service had been adequately funded.
The East and North Hertfordshire NHS trust updated its website shortly after the attack, telling visitors that they were "currently experiencing significant problems with our IT and telephone network".
"This is not targeted at the NHS, it's an global attack and a number of countries and organisations have been affected", May said, referring to the country's National Health Service.
However, there have been some reports of ambulances being diverted from affected hospitals and individual NHS trusts have asked registered patients not to attend unless it is urgent.
Staff can not access patient data, which has been scrambled by ransomware.
Bart's Health, which runs several London hospitals, said it had activated its major incident plan, cancelling routine appointments and diverting ambulances to neighboring hospitals.
At the Royal London Hospital operations were cancelled and staff were ordered not to touch their computers.
The infections have disabled more than a dozen hospitals in the United Kingdom, Spain's largest telecom company and universities in Italy as well as some FedEx computers.
"Our society increasingly relies on interconnected systems to deliver key services such as health", he said.
Hospitals across England reported the attack was causing huge problems to their services.

'Believe'. 24x36. Pastel
What a day! Saturday was a day filled with anticipation, excitement and joy! I had been preparing for my demo on painting Wildflowers in the landscape for months. The day of the demo had arrived and I was excited. I was surprised that I wasn't nervous. I was more anxious about getting the room set up in time!
This is the handout folder for my demo
I was thrilled to share my passion for painting wildflowers and was happy to have a full house of 44 artists. The demo was three hours long so I decided to do three paintings each demonstrating a different aspect of wildflowers in the landscape.
Here I am starting the first demo which was a meadow filled with poppies. I am explaining something about the block in stage.
This is the second demo. I was painting a close up of some daisies. I did a watercolor underpainting for this demo.
This is my final demo. It is a big one....24x36 on Pastelbord. I painted quickly to music (about 25 minutes) to demonstrate my most important message...."make a plan....then plan to let go"
The aftermath! What a great time with a wonderful group of artists! And the day got even better. In the evening I was inducted into the Masters Circle of IAPS along with a fabulous group of talented artists! The whole week was a dream come true for me.
I want to thank all of the wonderful artists and blog followers that I met at the convention. It was amazing to meet you all. I appreciate your support!

Polygon's Ben Kuchera just put up an interesting opinion piece pointing out that Microsoft's new Xbox One ads tacitly admit that the PS4 is winning — but promise that the Xbox team will fight back. The first ad uses a speech from 2006's Rocky Balboa, in which Rocky tries to pump up his son, and the second ad uses a Billy Bob Thornton speech from the Friday Night Lights film about trying your hardest. (The only thing missing is an exhortation to leave it all on the field.)
That's emblematic of a Microsoft that's trying hard to come back against the PS4's huge sales lead right now, says Kuchera:
Right now, Microsoft is doing everything it can. If there's a part of the system that's not working, it's gone. If there's a strategy that isn't paying off, they're losing it. Want the price to come down? Sure, here's a price drop. I can't remember the last time a company the size of Microsoft has pointed to a competitor and admitted that a rival product was doing a better job, before looking at themselves in the mirror and making a very public pledge to do better.
Of course, you could also just argue that these missteps were all due to Microsoft's insistence on trying to succeed in TV and the living room where everyone else has consistently failed, but then you'd just be saying I told you so.
And no one wants to do that.

Verizon Communications will host a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, Sept. 1, with mayor Adrian Fenty and other city officials to mark the official launch of the telco's FiOS network upgrade in the nation's capital.
The telecommunications company said it expects to begin offering FiOS TV and Internet services in parts of the District of Columbia starting later this year, competing with cable incumbent Comcast. Fenty in January approved the telco's 15-year cable franchise with the city.
The event is scheduled for Sept. 1 at 10:30 a.m. at 1600 19th St. S.E. near Minnesota Avenue. According to Verizon, the D.C. officials will take turns splicing fiber-optic lines following the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Scheduled to be on hand are Fenty, D.C. Councilmember Mary Cheh, D.C. Office of Cable Television director Eric Richardson and Verizon regional president William Roberts.
Verizon said its construction teams have been working in D.C.'s southeast quadrant to lay fiber-optic cabling. The franchise agreement obligates Verizon to make FiOS TV available throughout the District within the next nine years.

Hey all, I've got three models now that I added myself and they're all still a bit bulky. Does anyone know how to get them to be a bit more smoother? Second and two of the ships the collisionmesh shows and doesn't work. It just shows a white mass through my ship. Does anyone know what I could do to fix that? Thanks, Abyssinian.
You must add the collision on material editor, it is FX shader from EAW.
And you must add its properties on 3Dmax alamo panel, it must be a collision and hidden.
I know how to apply it and such. I just didn't knew that I had to set the collision and hidden part as it did that by itself on the first ship. Now that's fixed however, I'm still looking for a way to smoothen the model. Any ideas on that?
You can make one auto smooth, it is not bad for small smooth. You can select it on modifiers/mesh editing/smooth or you can make one smooth by parts, selecting edit poly and next making smooth groups.

I didn’t see it coming
going through my day at work,
softball practice later
with friends who lived
in that other world
where I’d spent too little time.
Driving home, the longing to explore
expanded like a helium balloon,
hot molecules seeking space,
straining against worn walls.
I was setting the brake on the pickup,
the vehicle he insisted we needed
to carry equipment for the band
he still hadn’t formed, in our driveway
beside the lawn he still hadn’t mowed,
when he peered out the window
newly risen from the bed he, of course,
had not made, probably wondering
when dinner would be served.
I wasn’t sure
if it was the sound of the brake,
or a tearing from within,
the moment I realized
I would never cook for him again.
Author’s Comment: It’s interesting to me the way those moments that lead up to a major change in our lives can hover for the longest time, like a vapor that slowly creeps in until it fills the room, and a door has to open before something explodes.
Bio: Sharyl Collin has had poems published in Mason’s Road and Rubber Lemon, and has completed her first chapbook, Tales of Trailers, Tamales and a Few Sour Grapes. She lives in Torrance, California, with her family and black lab, Sadie, and works part time in an emergency room.
A very moving poem. It’s still reverberating.
It’s certainly an accurate accounting of the way those life-changers accumulate–also of how inevitable the changes become.
I can relate very well to this one! I, too, was surprised at how fast I went from going to work one day (1990), and on my lunch break, knowing and deciding, I was done and would be ending my marriage that day. It sweeps over you and you know it’s over and you are moving on. Great poem, Sharyl!
Thanks, Kathy. This poem is from 1985, so similar time frame.
I love the way it is the sound of the brake that describes the tearing from one state of being to another.
Break. Brake. The helium balloon exploded into a fire-ball, and what was left? No more dinners for the man without a band, an un-mowed lawn, and an empty seat at the table. An un-made bed left for good, finally. Break.

Bitcoin has been rising, and the future of Dogecoin is in question. In this article, I’ll discuss Bitcoin’s rally from $20k to $64k, Elon Musk’s bid to purchase Twitter, and the Future of Dogecoin. Ultimately, I’ll make my own prediction.
Bitcoin’s rally from $20k to $64k
The rally from $20k to $64k in a week has been a great example of how crypto currencies can rise when the price is high, and is a great example of a crypto currency‘s price ‘disappearing’ when the price is low. However, there are some risks in investing in crypto currencies. For instance, it may be possible that Bitcoin will double from its recent all time high of $64k to $128k in a few months’ time. This could prove to be a wake-up call for diehard proponents of a Bitcoin $1+ million.
The biggest risk is in oversold conditions, which could mean Bitcoin’s price could go lower. With its high volatility, it is possible that Bitcoin will trade much lower than $36k, and it could even drop below $10k. This is a serious risk, but it is also not impossible. Bitcoin could reach $10k or even lower, but the overall trend analysis suggests that it won’t reach this low.
However, we should keep in mind that Bitcoin has crashed a lot before. In June 2011, it was down 99%. In August 2012, BTC dropped by 56%. And in April 2013, Bitcoin crashed to $50. It was almost banned in China after a major price drop.
Elon Musk’s bid to purchase Twitter
Elon Musk recently made a controversial bid to buy Twitter and is now facing a court battle over the deal. Musk initially announced his intentions to end the deal in July, claiming that Twitter breached the agreement. Then, Twitter filed a lawsuit against Musk in Delaware Court of Chancery. But Musk has since announced he will go ahead with the acquisition, and the trial has been postponed until October 28. Critics have centered their criticism on the potential increase in disinformation from the deal.
As Musk’s Twitter business plan went public, he promised various reforms, such as a ban on automated and fake accounts. He has also pledged to move the company away from an advertising-based revenue model. However, in an interview with The New York Times, Musk said that the deal was “on hold.”
Twitter’s board has urged Musk to withdraw his bid for the company, citing concerns that the company does not have enough cash to finance the deal. If this were to happen, the company could face a breakup fee of $1 billion. Musk had previously said that he would pursue the deal if he was able to secure debt financing.
The lawsuit is ongoing, but Twitter’s board is still mulling the offer. Musk’s lawyers are seeking to resolve the dispute. But the company does not want to stall the process and fears that this is just a legal ploy to delay the deal.
Future of Dogecoin
When the cryptocurrency industry started, the vision was that of an on-chain financial order that didn’t require governmental intervention. This vision elicited smirks. Then, in December 2013, Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer launched Dogecoin. The project mocked the crypto maximalists and quickly went viral on social media.
Some analysts are predicting a gradual increase in Dogecoin’s price. They predict that in 2023 the cryptocurrency will be worth at least $0.01. In 2030, the cryptocurrency is predicted to cross the $1 mark. By 2028, the price may even reach $2.41. However, that’s just a projection. There are a number of other factors that will affect Dogecoin’s price.
One factor to consider is the amount of volatility in the cryptocurrency market. While this may not be a huge concern, it should be noted that Dogecoin might face some significant volatility in the coming years. It’s best to read cryptocurrency price forecasts and be aware of the fluctuations in the market.
The price of Dogecoin may experience a significant price rally in the future, depending on factors such as Elon Musk’s tweets. Meme coins are known for having excessive price rallies within a short period of time. However, it’s important to note that the current price of Dogecoin is very low compared to the potential gains in the future. Therefore, you should only invest your money if you are comfortable with the risk of loss.

The race for Nassau district attorney is creating strange bedfellows.
Republican candidate Kate Murray, the Hempstead Town supervisor, appeared recently at news conferences with Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-Garden City), the former district attorney, who has endorsed acting Nassau District Attorney Madeline Singas, a Democrat.
Singas, meanwhile, has shared the stage in recent weeks with Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano, a Republican, to announce major gang arrests and an increased police presence during the Memorial Day weekend.
Political analysts said the appearances allow Murray and Singas to tout their accomplishments, get more news media attention than they would on their own and solidify relationships with political allies that can be valuable if they win the November election.
Michael Dawidziak, a political consultant who works mainly for Republicans, said the candidates also can demonstrate their ability to work across the aisle to win over independents, moderates and voters not aligned with the major political parties.
"The best words a candidate can trumpet are 'independence' and 'bipartisan cooperation,' " Dawidziak said. "Voters want to see that you can work with people from all sides."
Dems' options called fewOthers note that Republicans control the Nassau County Legislature and hold all countywide elected posts except for district attorney. They say Singas has little choice but to appear with GOP officials to gain media attention for policy initiatives or major arrests.
"The Democrats have DA and nothing else," said Hank Sheinkopf, a Democratic political consultant. "So what are her options?"
The public appearances of the political opponents involve decidedly uncontroversial subjects.
Last month Mangano, Singas and acting Police Commissioner Thomas Krumpter announced a beefed-up police presence during the Memorial Day holiday. A week earlier the three announced the arrests of 15 gang members in connection with a dogfighting ring and the distribution of fentanyl-laced heroin.
In April, Singas appeared with state Sen. Jack Martins (R-Mineola) to call for stronger punishments against motorists who injure or kill people while driving without a valid license.
Rice, as district attorney, rarely clashed with Mangano and other top county GOP officials. During last year's race for the 4th Congressional District seat, Nassau GOP chairman Joe Mondello praised Rice as a "nice person" and "a very good DA." Rice resigned as district attorney after defeating Republican Bruce Blakeman.
Republicans want the good relations to continue if Singas wins, Sheinkopf said.
"Nobody wants to be on the bad side of the DA," Sheinkopf said. "So, hedging your bets is always a good idea."
Mangano spokesman Brian Nevin said events with Singas were "strictly governmental."
Murray's appearancesPolitical experts said Murray has carefully selected events with Democrats that accentuate her government experience and ability to deliver for residents on key issues.
In March, five weeks before the supervisor confirmed her long-anticipated campaign for district attorney, Murray appeared with Rice to call on PSEG Long Island to halt the use of utility poles to replace buried transmission cables.
Murray and Rice were together again on May 29 to announce that the U.S. Census Bureau had agreed to redesignate East Garden City as part of Uniondale.
Murray also appeared June 1 with Democratic Freeport Mayor Robert Kennedy to sign an agreement extending fire and sanitation services between Hempstead Town and the village.
Although Rice is backing Singas, her former top deputy, they have yet to appear together at a news conference. Rice and Singas did make a joint appearance May 16 at a Democratic voter outreach event in Mineola.
In a video of the event provided by the Singas campaign, Rice said: "I like Kate Murray. She is a good person and has a good heart. Do I think she has the qualifications to run for the top law enforcement agency in this county? The answer very respectfully is no."
Nassau Democratic chairman Jay Jacobs said Rice's willingness to stand with Murray "allows for some confusion" with voters and gives political ammunition to the GOP.
"During the political season, you need to be very careful about the message you send," said Jacobs, who has endorsed Singas in a Democratic primary against former Manhattan prosecutor Michael Scotto.
Jacobs clashed with Rice in 2013 when he argued the DA should have charged former Nassau Police Commissioner Thomas Dale with witness tampering for ordering the arrest of a central figure in an elections case. Rice said there was no evidence of crime by Dale.
Burnishing credentialsSheinkopf said Republicans likely will use photos of Rice and Murray together on mailers and TV ads during the campaign to burnish the supervisor's credentials.
"Kathleen Rice may be sending a message to her replacement: If you want my support, show some distance with the party chairman," he said.
Stanley Klein, an LIU Post political science professor, said Rice's appearances with Murray underscore how little she fears retribution from Jacobs and the Democratic Party.
"The number one rule of politics is do what's best for you to get re-elected -- and that may not be what's good for the party," said Klein, also a Suffolk GOP committeeman.
Klein and others said Rice, who was elected three times as Nassau DA, is an attractive political ally for Murray.
Analysts say Rice supporters could be critical in the election because registered Democrats outnumber Republicans by 361,626 to 317,784, with 210,851 voters unaffiliated with any major political party.
At the Uniondale news conference, Rice dismissed the political implications of appearing with Murray.
"This is not about politics but about the people," said Rice, whose district is within the Town of Hempstead. "And we can and did work together on this."
Rice spokesman Eric Phillips said: "Kathleen hired Madeline Singas. She made Madeline Singas her chief deputy. Kathleen intends on supporting Madeline Singas for DA."
Murray said she works with Rice on issues that "affect both of our constituencies" without allowing party affiliation or political campaigns to interfere.
Singas campaign spokesman Isaac Goldberg said, "Kathleen Rice is Madeline Singas' professional mentor and we're proud to have her in our corner."

In WCF there are two types of Security, transport level security and message level security.
Transport Security: Transport level security happens at the channel level. Transport level security is the easiest to implement as it happens at the communication level. WCF uses transport protocols like TCP, HTTP, MSMQ etc and every of these protocols have their own security mechanisms. One of the common
implementation of transport level security is HTTPS. HTTPS is implemented over HTTP protocols with SSL providing the security mechanism. No coding change is required it’s more of using the existing security mechanism provided by the protocol.
Message Security: Message level security is implemented with message data itself. Due to this it is independent of the protocol. Some of the common ways of implementing message level security is by encrypting data using some standard encryption algorithm.
Below Diagram illustrate the concept of security in WCF.

Russia boosting presence on Ukraine’s eastern border, UK says
London, Apr 20 (EFE).- Russia’s military presence on Ukraine’s eastern border continues to increase while fighting in Donbas intensifies as Russian forces seek to break through Ukrainian defenses, British military intelligence said Wednesday.
Russian air activity in northern Ukraine is likely to be reduced following its withdrawal from north of Kyiv, the defense ministry said in its latest intelligence report.
“However, there is still a risk of precision strikes against priority targets throughout Ukraine,” it added.
Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities “show their intent to try and disrupt the movement of Ukrainian reinforcements and weaponry to the east of the country,” the ministry said. EFE

News Stories for July
Mitre 10 MEGA Launched in Australia
The first of Mitre 10’s new MEGA large-format stores has opened for business in Chelsea Heights, in Melbourne’s south-eastern suburbs.
The new MEGA store at Chelsea Heights, Victoria
The new store, launched officially on 10 June, is one of 30 MEGA stores planned to open Australia-wide (eight in Victoria) within the next five years.
Instead of conducting a traditional “cutting of the ribbon”, Acting Premier of Victoria, John Thwaites, teamed with Mitre 10’s Managing Director Frank Whitford to saw through a timber plank to mark the dawn of a new phase in the group’s growth.
The event was overseen by the owner of the new complex, Bruce Mathieson; Mitre 10 Mega General Manager, David Eager, and IBIS World’s Chairman, Phillip Ruthven.
Another very special guest was the strongest man in Australasia, who seemingly defied the laws of physics to pull a MEGA truck about 30 metres along a loading bay.
Deputy Premier of Victoria, John Thwaites, and Mitre 10 Managing Director Frank Whitford
While the MEGA store concept will obviously allow Mitre 10 to tackle other big-box rivals head on, it is important to note that Mitre 10 has avoided the temptation to roll out a network of copycat stores. This is a brand new kind of hardware store in Australia, and one that foreshadows a new era in fresh, customer-friendly, large-format marketing.
The 7,000m2 Chelsea Heights outlet, considered in conjunction with its soon-to-be-opened sister stores, gives MEGA the potential to overturn many existing large-format stereotypes. Traditional big-box stores of various marques around the world have become rather dusty, poorly lit, linear warehouses, characterized by supermarket-type symmetries and lots of equidistant thoroughfares: Think of Walter Burley Griffin’s layout for Canberra on a smaller scale!

This Retailer Lives Life In The Fast Lane
Tony Sullens’ business competitors may find it hard enough to keep up with him in the retailing arena, but when it comes to car racing he’s sure to leave them in a cloud of dust.
i> Tony Sullens proudly displays his 2004 Targa trophy
Tony was recently declared overall winner at the prestigious car rally, Targa Tasmania, beating more than 280 competitors including household racing names: Peter Brock and Jim Richards.
The win was labelled the “biggest upset in Targa Tasmania’s 13-year history,” with Tony, in his 4WD Subaru WRX STi, ending the domination of Jim Richards who has been victorious for the past seven years.
Tony, who is store principal at Gosford Mitre 10 on NSW’s Central Coast, is a familiar face in the car racing scene in New South Wales and has a reputation as a gravel rally specialist. He says there are many similarities between car racing and hardware retailing.

‘Code Blue’ for Thrifty-Link
John Danks & Son has commenced its national roll-out of ‘Code Blue’ – a new store signage program for Thrifty-Link stores.
MGM Hardware in Ascot Vale (Vic) is one of the first Thrifty-Link stores to undergo the Code Blue makeover
Danks is hoping that the new, bold blue exterior signage will ensure that Thrifty-Link stores make an impact at street level in crowded shopping strips and in rural areas.
“As the market becomes more and more competitive, we need to ensure our brand is top of mind and instantly recognizable to consumers,” said Ian Bould, Danks’ National Marketing Manager. “The response from members to the initiative that was announced at the recent state conferences has been overwhelmingly positive.”
Peter Steinberg from the Carlton Handyman Centre in Victoria, believes the change will help distinguish Thrifty-Link from its competitors. “The splash of blue in shopping strips will become instantly recognizable as a Thrifty-Link store, opposed to white which is much more generic,” said Steinberg.
Code Blue is designed to consolidate the 380 Thrifty-Link stores currently operating in Australia. To complement the new look, staff will wear uniforms and end caps will be updated to provide a modern feel and more flexibility for promotional messages. The Code Blue makeover is funded through the current fee structure, with no additional cost to members.

Back in the studio and working on some fun projects after what has been an amazing summer and action packed August. Here are a few photo highlights from last month....
I gold leafed my arm for the encore opening at Grover Thurston. I wanted to wear a big metal cuff and couldn't find one so I painted this on my arm using traditional gold leaf. It was a bit like having a golden tattoo and it was easily removed the next day with a little tea tree oil.
|My gold leafed "tattoo".|
|Showing off my golden cuff at the Grover /Thurston Gallery.|
The following week I had guests in the studio as part of a stock photography shoot for Getty Images. Photographer, Tom Barwick, and his lovely assistant, Brooke, photographed me working in my space.
|Photo shoot in progress...|
|One of the final images from Tom Barwick's photo shoot.|
A few days after these photos were taken I boarded a plane headed for the Hawaiian island of Maui. It was my first visit there and I spent the entire week in the ocean. The reefs provided an abundance of inspiration in color, texture and form that I know will have an impact on my work in the future. I got to swim with majestic sea turtles and learned how to smile underwater with a snorkel in my mouth. Even had the chance to see an art installation by Patrick Dougherty at the Hui No'eau Visual Art Center on Maui.
|Felt like a 12 year old kid in the water!|
|Installation by Patrick Dougherty|

With bags still packed from Hawaii I jumped in the car and began my road trip over to Sun Valley, Idaho, for an opening of new work at the Gilman Contemporary. Drove through smoke filled highways to get there but was happy to find it clear and beautiful upon arrival.
|Smoke painted hills in Idaho.|
|Driving through a fog bank of smoke on the way to Sun Valley.|
Enjoyed a gorgeous evening at the Gilman Contemporary gallery with the Gilman girls and closed out the summer with one last show of the season. Sold a few paintings, drove a few hundred miles and made it back to Seattle just in time for the September art walk.

Phew...ok...so that's the month in review...I left out the parts with scorpions, sharks, flea markets, festivals and reunions. I hope your summer has been an adventurous one too! Starting up some new projects now and preparing for my next show in February 2013 at the Chase Young gallery in Boston. Stay tuned for some photos of new work in progress.

on August 19, offering Rs 1,150 per share to purchase around 4.92 per cent of the stocks held by the shareholders.
has been a long-standing demand of some founders and high-profile former executives, who have been pushing the IT major to return surplus capital to its shareholders. Infosys reported cash and cash equivalents and investments worth Rs 39,335 crore as of June 30. A day before the buyback
resigned, and that led to a public spat between the Infosys board and Murthy. The board had blamed Murthy for Sikka’s exit, and this forced analysts and shareholders to lose confidence in the company. Shareholders lost nearly Rs 34,000 crore in market capitalisation in the immediate aftermath of the resignation.
of truce emerged last week, the stock gained. Last Thursday, R Seshasayee quit as chairman and so did two independent directors and Sikka, paving the way for the return of Nilekani as non-executive and non-independent chairman.
Nilekani then listed measures such as finding a CEO, expanding the board, and preparing a strategy for the growth of the company, reviving shareholder confidence.
The Infosys stock gained Rs 28.65, or 3.14 per cent, at the close of trading on Monday on the BSE.

The buildings are complete, we saw the finishing touches, the final planting, clearing and cleaning the site, to the backdrop sound of rehearsals for the opening show…. ssshhhh!
It was a real treat to see the park before the official opening ceremony and the start of the games. A small group of friends let loose in a playground and a big one at that! To stare in wonder at the incredible buildings to ooh and ahhh at the sublime planting and to puzzle at and play with the art works specifically created for the Olympic Park. You see the Olympics is far more than the sports events it’s a myriad of sights.
We saw so much in an afternoon of dark threatening clouds, rain bursts and sun spells that I’m going to split these posts up into sections. I’ll take you around the park at a more leisurely pace – slowly and surely we’ll see all the main buildings like the Aquatics Centre, the Velodrome, and the Basketball Arena – all stunning in their own right.
But me being me, we’ll take a look at the landscaping and planting, talk about the work, the science and the design that has gone into this remarkable space, the feats of engineering to create specific habitats and environments for the flora and fauna that inhabit this area.
I want to show you the way the river winds around the park, the bridges that crisscross,, and the train tracks intersecting. To talk about the recycling of materials, the cleaning of the ground, the growing of the plants, the testing, trialing and reviewing. The sheer scale of ait all. The numbers and facts are bind bogglingly glorious. And of course the legacy of a new park for London.
And yes, we’ll take a look at what everyone is talking about – the Orbit Tower!
So for now, a brief snapshot of some of the sights to hopefully whet your appetite. No matter if you’re not a sports fan or can’t make it to the games themselves I think you’ll enjoy the tour around London 2012. Besides you get some stunning views of one of my favourite skylines in the world – I know I’m a bit biased on this one having lived there for oh so many years, – just roll with me, ok?

Ground Stone Tool (磨製石器)
Ground stone tool is a kind of stone tools in classification by fabrication method.
Normally stone tool was made of stone materials beaten and exfoliated by other stone or animal bones. Ground stone tool was made of such stone tools which had seldom asperity by being polished with other stone material. Stone tools which were not polished are called chipped stone tool.
As ground stone tool, there were stone sticks, stone plates, grating stones, ground stone hatchets and stone drills, and so on. A part of them appeared in the Paleolithic period and made often in the Neolithic period (Jomon period in Japan). As a technique of polishing, there was scrapping technique, and so on.
Also there was local ground stone tool which only the cutting parts were polished. Those were used mainly for stone hatchets.
Stone tool weapons
In Yayoi period, in northern part of Kyushu, flint arrowhead and stone sword of ground stone tools which originated in the Korean Peninsula were developed. There were two types of the stone swords of ground stone tool such as ones with stone handle and ones in iron sword style. Kinai style chipped points which imitated the stone sword of the ground stone tools in iron sword style was used as spear, sword and pike. In Southern Kanto region there were very few flint arrowheads and stone swords of both chipped stone tool and ground stone tools.

My Fireplace mantle got a makeover last year. It used to look like this:
I loved the new mantle. However, the rest of that wall looked like this:
It kind of had a split personality with the dark wood moulding at top, and the distressed mantle in the middle. Risking ruining the fireplace crown moulding and built-in bookshelves, and the re-sale value of our house, I went ahead and painted that moulding on top of the brick:My husband said it was too white compared to the mantle which was aged and distressed. I had to agree, so I went and did a little aging. And, since I can't leave well enough alone, I also went and painted the brick. I never loved it in the first place, I thought when we picked it out, there would be some more variation in the colors. On a whim, I decided to paint. I figured I went this far and there's no going back.....
I'm glad I took the risk and painted the brick and moulding. Next up, the built-in bookcases. Do I dare? I'm still pondering this one. The other end of this room is our kitchen, which is a dark cherry. I would love to paint the bookcases a dark grey, but would I completely ruin them? Would I turn into the dreaded "former homeowner" if we ever sold this house? And, while I'm questioning myself, why did I not tighten those slipcover seats before I took these photos?
If you want to see how I distressed the mantle, click here.
I'm linking with Miss Mustard Seed.
Have a Great Weekend everyone!

Arnold Schwarzenegger met Austrian Federal President Alexander Van der Bellen and Federal Chancellor Sebastian Kurz on January 24, 2018 in Vienna to discuss the upcoming, second R20 Austrian World Summit, scheduled to take place on May 15, 2018 in Vienna’s Hofburg Palace.
The R20 Austrian World Summit is a long-term initiative to create a network platform that will help regions, states and cities implement the UN Sustainable Development Goals and meet the global climate protection targets outlined in the Paris Agreement. The first R20 Austrian World Summit was held at Vienna’s Hofburg Palace in 2017 with more than 700 participants from 50 nations.
“We are convinced that the R20 Austrian World Summit has the potential to become the central hub in Europe for the exchange of solutions and best-practice results,” Mr. Schwarzenegger said.
The second summit will again take place under the patronage of Federal President Alexander Van der Bellen: “It is very important that by hosting the R20 Austrian World Summit, Vienna will again be the center recognized worldwide for concrete and groundbreaking climate protection projects. Thereby we can make an improtant contribution to climate protection and to the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals as well as the Paris Agreement,” the President said.

I love genre-bending movies, and especially those that mix horror with comedy. That puts me dead center of the target demographic of this film. The plot is pretty silly and there certainly isn't enough action for anyone looking for scares. What saves it is the script. It's witty and never takes itself too seriously. The characters are all foils for one another, setting up some of the most entertaining dialog of any movie I know.
The plot revolves around a 30 foot Asian crocodile somehow winding up in a lake in Maine - go figure. What makes the movie are the characters assembled to do something about it. Bridget Fonda is an annoying paleontologist who's never before ventured out of her museum. Here, she plays both the archetypal fish out of water as well as potential romantic interest for the local game warden, played by Bill Pullman. The essential characters are rounded out by Brendan Gleeson's dour sheriff, Oliver Platt's rich and eccentric mythology buff, and Betty White as the colorful local little old lady with a secret or two.
As I said, reduced to a plot outline, it's pretty unimpressive, but the verbal barbs that fly back and forth between the characters are what make the show. It's an "action/horror" movie I could watch with my eyes shut and still enjoy.

Higher-intensity exercise results in more sustainable improvements for VO2peak for breast and prostate cancer survivors
Martin, Eric A., Battaglini, Claudio L., Hands, Beth, & Naumann, Fiona (2015) Higher-intensity exercise results in more sustainable improvements for VO2peak for breast and prostate cancer survivors. Oncology Nursing Forum, 42(3), pp. 241-249.
Purpose/Objectives: To examine peak volume of oxygen consumption (VO2peak) changes after a high- or low-intensity exercise intervention.
Design: Experimental trial comparing two randomized intervention groups with control.
Setting: An exercise clinic at a university in Australia.
Sample: 87 prostate cancer survivors (aged 47–80 years) and 72 breast cancer survivors (aged 34–76 years).
Methods: Participants enrolled in an eight-week exercise intervention (n = 84) or control (n = 75) group. Intervention participants were randomized to low-intensity (n = 44, 60%–65% VO2peak, 50%–65% of one repetition maximum [1RM]) or high-intensity (n = 40, 75%–80% VO2peak, 65%–80% 1RM) exercise groups. Participants in the control group continued usual routines. All participants were assessed at weeks 1 and 10. The intervention groups were reassessed four months postintervention for sustainability.
Main Research Variables: VO2peak and self-reported physical activity.
Findings: Intervention groups improved VO2peak similarly (p = 0.083), and both more than controls (p < 0.001). The high-intensity group maintained VO2peak at follow-up, whereas the low-intensity group regressed (p = 0.021). The low-intensity group minimally changed from baseline to follow-up by 0.5 ml/kg per minute, whereas the high-intensity group significantly improved by 2.2 ml/kg per minute (p = 0.01). Intervention groups always reported similar physical activity levels.
Conclusions: Higher-intensity exercise provided more sustainable cardiorespiratory benefits than lower-intensity exercise.
Implications for Nursing: Survivors need guidance on exercise intensity, because a high volume of low-intensity exercise may not provide sustained health benefits.

1 point from our next 5 and they can't catch us.I tipped Arsenal to win this. Purely because I expect Arsenal to lose this and lately these bastards do the opposite of what I tip.
Would be happy if for the next few weeks the ESL teams drop their matches and we see Leicester catch City but I doubt it.
A draw lets Spurs and Liverpool in a little. With their remaining fixtures I don't think Leicester's 3rd place is secure. Gonna be down to the last game I think for 3rd and 4th place. But apparently "soccer is boring" lol.While i think we've already blown top 4 in dropping points in our home games against Brom and Brighton if we dont win against Hammers its all over.

Cyberjaya Mosque – Malaysia
Green design concept with contemporary façade design to project Islam as a progressive religion.
Central Courtyard to aid natural ventilation.
Sculptural Minaret to be focal point of the mosque.
Building positioning to compliment the future University Islam Malaysia Complex.
Energy efficient and designed to maximize the use of natural ventilation.
The main design approach was to make the mosque a truly sustainable mosque so that it will become a true model for the building of future mosques in Malaysia. The goal or original design intent of the mosque is to design the mosque’s main ‘Prayer Hall’ to be air conditioned for two hours during Friday prayers and during prayers for special events based on the Islamic Calendar. During other hours of the day and night, it is expected that the use of fans and ventilators would be sufficient. The Mosque is designed and planned to have an average daytime temperature of 26 degrees Celsius.

Constitutional scholar: resolution eerily like previous Gulf of Tonkin resolution
September 4, 2013
Despite Secretary of State John Kerry’s assurance that Arab countries will pay for an attack on Syria, opposition to the ill-conceived operation is growing.
The National Review Online quotes Rep. Matt Salmon
of Arizona. Salmon said hundreds of constituents – with the exception
of two – have called his office urging him to resist the move in
Congress to vote in favor of attacking Syria.
“I don’t see any national-security imperative for our country at all.
Both sides in this equation are bad actors,” Salmon said. “Other than
saving face for the president, I don’t understand what we would be
doing,” he added.
Salmon also told the NRO few believe Obama’s strikes will be
surgical. “Nobody believes this is going to be a couple surgical
strikes,” he said dismissively.
