These magnificent diamond studs earrings are quite unusual, each of the two earrings having an arrow of 3 diamonds attached to the focal point, the large round cut diamond. Together, the round and the arrow shaped mounts, created sophisticated looks on these pieces of jewelry that look timeless as years go by.
Considering the special 14K white gold setting which is very ornate underneath the large diamonds, I think that they were crafted before the 1950's. Each of the two large round diamonds is 6 prongs set and the prongs come from fleur de lis shaped mounts.
The 2 large round cut diamonds are beautiful and sparkling even in less light. I took pictures during the day light and in the afternoon when the dark started to settle down.
The 14K white gold reveals and even enhances the beauty of these diamonds which are not perfect by diamond charts but absolutely beautiful when wearing them, in any occasion, 24 hours a day. The earrings were acid tested for 14K gold and there are 14K marks on the backs.
THE 1ST LARGE ROUND CUT DIAMOND:
- color J, clarity VSI2.
- measurements in the mount are approx. 6.20 mm diameter x 3.7 mm thickness.
- carat weight is 0.90 carat.
THE 2ND LARGE ROUND CUT DIAMOND:
- color J, clarity SI1.
- measurements in the mount are approx. 6.10 mm diameter x 3.6 mm thickness.
- carat weight is 0.80 carat.
THE 6 ROUND CUT ACCENT DIAMONDS:
- color J - K, clarity VSI2 - SI1.
- total carat weight for 6 accent diamonds is approx. 0.65 carat.
MEASUREMENTS OF THE EARRINGS:
- approx. 12.5 mm long x 7 mm max. width.
- total weight of the 2 studs and 2 backs together is 2.6 grams.
Condition is beautiful, ready to wear.

REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY: The presence of abnormal respiratory sounds is commonly associated with obstructions of the upper respiratory tract. In order to establish their clinical significance measurements are required of both normal and abnormal respiratory sounds produced by horses exercising over-ground. OBJECTIVES: To determine whether high quality recordings of respiratory sound can be made during over-ground exercise, and to develop a convenient measurement system that can be used to obtain respiratory sounds from horses exercising in field conditions. METHODS: A range of prototypes was evaluated against the requirements that the system must be easy to use under field conditions and produce high-quality recordings of respiratory sound. The chosen design incorporated a miniature microphone and an air-flow direction sensor mounted on a lightweight plastic face mask. The mask was attached to the horse's head using nylon straps secured by velcro fastenings. Sound and flow signals were recorded on a portable minidisc player carried by the jockey. RESULTS: The system fulfilled the design criteria. High quality recordings of respiratory sounds were obtained from Thoroughbred horse exercising on a training gallop under a variety of weather conditions. Intermittently occurring abnormal sounds were readily identified from the data. CONCLUSIONS: High quality measurements of respiratory sounds during over-ground exercise can be made relatively easily. POTENTIAL RELEVANCE: The system enables measurement of respiratory sounds outside a laboratory environment creating new opportunities for scientific research and clinical assessment. The study demonstrated that diagnostic systems based on respiratory sound analysis could potentially be manufactured at relatively low cost and be convenient and simple to use.

Written by: John DeRousie, Custom Marketing Solutions
OSWEGO, NY – Homelessness. It exists in virtually every community and impacts all ages. In some cases the plight of the homeless is easily recognizable, in others it is more of a silent, unseen issue.
While homelessness in Oswego County is not always recognizable, it does exist. A one-day study on January 25 of this year, conducted by the County of Oswego Advocates Challenging Homelessness (COACH), indicates that on any day in Oswego county more than 85 county residents have no place to call home and more than 30 more are on the brink of homelessness.
While there are some services available, one basic need is not…shelter where they find temporary comfort from the elements.
There is no homeless shelter in Oswego County.
However, 12-year-old Emily Bradshaw, a student at Oswego Middle School, is on a mission to change that.
“My Grandmother works at DSS (Oswego County Department of Social Services) and when I heard that there were hundreds of homeless people in Oswego County but no homeless shelter it upset me a lot. I decided I was going to do whatever I can to get one,” said Bradshaw.
Determined, Bradshaw began her quest for a homeless shelter with a visit to the Oswego County Legislature in September when she voiced her concern and spoke of the issue of homelessness and the need for a homeless shelter.
“This is a serious issue and we need to help people,” said Bradshaw.
Following her appeal to the Oswego County Legislature, Emily spoke with Oswego County Social Services Commissioner Greg Heffer and Executive Director of Oswego County Opportunities, a community action agency that offers several programs for the homeless.
“They suggested that since it may take a while to get a homeless shelter and that while I was lobbying I could start a drive to collect personal care items that would be distributed to homeless people,” said Bradshaw.
And so it began. Through personal visits and letters Bradshaw contacted businesses, organizations, dentists, churches, family and friends shared her mission with them and asked for donations of personal care items.
She was very pleased with the responses she received noting that the community has been very generous, even her classmates helped her.
With a goal of collecting enough items to make 500 personal care bags Bradshaw began collecting, sorting, and putting together the bags. In less than three months she not only met her goal, she far surpassed it, and isn’t done yet.
“I’ve made 540 bags…and counting,” said Bradshaw. “I’m happy that the community is helping me. It makes me feel good.”
Bradshaw said that she has already begun distributing the bags with DSS receiving 150 bags and Oswego High School, Oswego Middle School, and G. Ray Bodley High School in Fulton each receiving 50 bags.
“Even though we may not know it, there are a lot of homeless students. I was told that during any given week there are at least two-dozen homeless students at Oswego High School alone. It makes me happy to know that I am helping them,” said Bradshaw.
Additionally, Bradshaw said that she would be distributing personal care bags along with hats and scarves during the Oswego Salvation Army Thanksgiving dinner.
Throughout her drive for personal care bags Bradshaw has continued to lobby for the creation of a homeless shelter.
She continues to share her vision with Oswego County legislators, her city councilor, the mayor of Oswego and other county and state representatives.
She has met with Assemblyman Will Barclay and has reached out to Congressman Bill Owens and Senator Patty Ritchie.
Bradshaw’s commitment to her mission of establishing a homeless shelter in Oswego County and her determined efforts to collect and distribute personal care bags have crated a buzz in the community that is helping to building support for her project throughout the county.
“Emily is remarkable. What she is doing is wonderful as it is making people recognize the fact that homelessness does exist in Oswego County and it is an issue that seriously needs to be addressed. When young people bring forward the issue of homelessness it has a sense of credibility as they see it for themselves in school. Emily is putting a personal touch to the issue,” said COACH member and Deputy Executive Director of Oswego County Opportunities, Sarah Irland.
As for Bradshaw, her ongoing personal care bags drive and her mission of establishing a homeless shelter in Oswego County is a labor of love.
“Bad things can happen to good people and everyone deserves to be treated equal. It makes my heart feel happy because I know I am helping people and that our community is helping people,” said Bradshaw.
To contribute to Bradshaw’s personal care bags drive, contact Jennifer Bradshaw at 315-342-3164 or via e-mail at [email protected] to arrange for pick up of items or leave donations in the main office of Oswego Middle School, 100 Mark FitzGibbons Drive.

If you haven’t seen the piles of panettone around the shop, you may not know that we recently received a large shipment of holiday treats from Italy. Along with all the breads, cakes, and other sweets came traditional savoiardi. These crisp Italian ladyfingers from Dolceria Donna Elvira in Modica, Sicily are the perfect building block for tiramisu! After a quick jaunt around the shop I had all the ingredients needed for one of my favorite Italian desserts; except, of course the rum.
Wine Buyer Stephen recommends a perfect holiday pair — Perbellini Panettone and frothy Torelli “Di Michela” Asti Spumanti!
After months of careful selection and sampling, our staffers have gathered together their top picks for this year’s holiday season!
Carquinyols are the Spanish equivalent of biscotti. These in particular tend to be a bit lighter – almost meringue-like, which made me like them even more.
Every year, it is with great anticipation that we order torrone and panettone from Sorelle Nurzia, a small confectioners in Italy. These delicious goodies arrive in the shop brightly packaged, beautiful-looking and wonderfully festive – kicking off the holiday season here at the shop!
At the end of each year, staff members at all three of our shops – in Cambridge, the South End and in New York – fill out a staff survey. We reflect on our year in food, pick our favorites and share memorable moments. Here are our top ten picks culled from this year’s survey results!

DENDERA musician Sulumani Chimbetu and Senegalese Baaba Maal on Saturday thrilled hundreds of visitors to the Harare International Festival of the Arts (Hifa)that came to an end last night.
Chimbetu, who performed in the afternoon when most of his fans would have preferred an evening show, wowed the thousands that thronged the venue.
The one hour-long performance proved to be too short for merry-makers who kept asking for more.
Senegalese Baaba Maal had a few lessons for local musicians in as far as depth and ambassadorial roles are concerned.
Unlike most who ask for handouts from fans and others who take time to respond to media reports or in other case some who take the stage as a chance to attack one another, Baaba Maal encouraged Africans to unite.
The world renowned musician also spoke about the plight of African women and asked for an urgent address to issues like water availability.
The musician also exhibited immense skill and respect for African instruments particularly the drums that helped him steal the show.
Ammara Brown also stormed Hifa with a debut sold out show when she performed with Mi Casa.
As late as 40 minutes into the performance, ticket holders were still in the queue to enter the venue.

So you’ve heard there’s a ban on smoking in Austria – at least in public places. But you still walk into restaurants and bars filled with smoke. So what’s the story with smoking in Austria? What is allowed and what is not allowed?
I know that I was confused when I moved here. I am used to the total smoking bans which seem to exist in most other (Western) countries. My home country, Ireland, was the first to implement a total ban on smoking in public places. But since then many other countries have followed us. Even Italy and France have implemented bans. So why not Austria?
Maybe it’s something to do with the fact that about 33% of Austrians smoke – one of the highest rates in Europe. Maybe it’s because an OECD study found that 27% of 15 years olds in Austria smoke at least once a week. In fact, over 50% of men between 18 and 28 are smokers. Yahoo once called Austria a ‘smokers’ paradise’. But which is the chicken and which is the egg? Maybe the percentage of smokers is so high because the laws are tacitly encouraging smoking. When most of the world has given up on smoking, you could see the current laws encouragement. Maybe more people would give it up if there was a total ban. That’s what they found elsewhere.
The good news is that this will change in May 2018 when a total smoking ban in all public places comes into force. This will include E-Cigarettes.
In the meantime, what are the current laws on smoking in Austria?
- You are not allowed to smoke in any enclosed public spaces – although there are certain exceptions for eating and drinking establishments.
- Restaurants, bars and discos over 50m² (538 ft²) must be either non-smoking, or they have to introduce a separate smoking room.
- Restaurants, bars and discos under 50m² (538 ft²) can decide for themselves whether they are smoking or non-smoking.
- If no other employee in the same enclosed space objects, then you can smoke in the workplace.
- Smoking is completely banned on trains and in train stations.
Having said all of that though – we all know that there’s plenty of places which ignore the laws. You could report it, but would it do any good?
Here are some links to some good English language articles on the subject.

There was a tearing sound, and Louis’s hand came away with a torn swatch of Michael’s undershirt clutched in his fingers. Like a bull seeing red, Louis tried to push past Richard. When that didn’t work he tried to grab Michael’s top over Richard’s shoulder. Michael howled with laughter and ducked away. ” Richard yelled. “He’s just trying to pull your chain. ” Louis hissed. He threw the swatch of torn fabric he’d yanked out of Michael’s undershirt at his tormentor. Michael laughed again. ” Richard said with disgust as he continued down the passageway.
He didn’t need someone to tell him the vibration might be coming from the drilling rig. That was pretty obvious. After all, it was difficulty with the drilling operation that had brought Perry here from Los Angeles. Perry knew that he had gambled the future of Benthic Marine on the current project: drilling into a magma chamber within a seamount west of the Azores. It was a project that was not under contract, meaning the company was spending instead of being paid, and the cash hemorrhage was horrendous.
Perry was looking west over a misty, calm sea whose surface resembled a vast expanse of beaten pewter. The water undulated sinuously with low, widely separated swells. The serenity of the scene belied the goings-on below the surface. The Benthic Explorer was being held in a fixed position by computer driven commands to her propellers as well as to her bow and stern thrusters over a portion of the volcanically and seismically active Mid-Atlantic Ridge, a twelve-thousand-mile-long, jagged range of mountains that bisects the ocean.

TRACE ADKINS TO HOST AND PERFORM ON "AMERICAN COUNTRY AWARDS" MONDAY, DECEMBER 6, ON FOX
EASTON CORBIN, STEEL MAGNOLIA AND UNCLE KRACKER
ALSO TO PERFORM ON STAR-STUDDED INAUGURAL SPECIAL
Voting for Artist of the Year Continues at www.theacas.com
Until Saturday, December 4
Multi-platinum recording artist Trace Adkins will host and perform on the AMERICAN COUNTRY AWARDS, airing live from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas Monday, Dec. 6 (8:00-10:00 PM ET live/PT tape-delayed) on FOX. Additionally, country music sensations Easton Corbin, Steel Magnolia and Uncle Kracker are also set to perform during the two-hour primetime special.
AMERICAN COUNTRY AWARDS is the only country music awards show that gives fans the opportunity to vote for their favorite artists not only in traditional categories but also in previously unrecognized areas of the business such as touring, encompassing the entire spectrum of country music and bestowing honors that no other awards show has. The star-studded event will also feature previously announced performers Toby Keith, Rascal Flatts, Reba, Blake Shelton and Josh Turner, as well as participants Laura Bell Bundy, Rodney Carrington, Jewel, Lady Antebellum, Bret Michaels, Ty Murray, Jeff Dunham, Michael Waltrip and Elliott Sadler.
Fans can still vote once each day for their favorite nominees in the Artist of the Year category, at www.theacas.com until Saturday, Dec. 4, 2010.
Trace Adkins is one of country music's most versatile and accomplished entertainers. His instantly recognizable baritone has earned him 28 charted singles and 14 Top Ten hits; gold, platinum and multi-platinum albums with total sales surpassing 10 million; membership in the Grand Ole Opry; and a number of industry awards. Since entering the public eye with the singles "Every Light In The House Is On" and "This Ain't No Thinkin' Thing," Adkins has proven his ability to create hits, including rowdy barroom anthem "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk" and "All I Ask For Anymore," a moving modern masterpiece that earned Grammy nominations for Best Male Country Performance and Best Country Song. With music as his foundation, Adkins has constructed a truly diversified career, becoming a sought-after guest on talk shows, a popular reality show participant, an accomplished actor, a voiceover narrator and commercial spokesman and a successful author. His towering physical presence and no-nonsense personality have even inspired a modern comic book hero, Luke McBain. Adkins' new album, "Cowboy's Back In Town," is available in stores and online and recently debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Country Album charts. The lead single, "This Ain't No Love Song," has become the superstar's latest Top 20 hit and is steadily climbing the country singles charts.
Recognized for the No. 1 hits "A Little More Country Than That" and "Roll With It," newcomer Easton Corbin holds the title for the highest-charting male debut single for 2009 and 2010. People magazine awarded his self-titled debut album three out of four stars and claims it "sounds like the second coming of George Strait." Others agree. Billboard boasts "Taking a page from the Strait playbook, Corbin displays excellent song sense while offering an easygoing vocal style." Newsday proclaims "Corbin may just be one of the year's breakout stars." And American Songwriter says "Easton has one of those rare, glorious voices that was made - just made - for singing country music." Corbin wrote four songs for the record, which debuted as the No. 2 top-selling record on iTunes' country albums chart, as well as the No. 5 top album on the all-genres chart. He opened for Brad Paisley's summer/fall tour, and has performed on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon."
Season Two "Can You Duet?" winners, Steel Magnolia - Meghan Linsey and Joshua Scott Jones - captivated America with their dynamic harmonies and musicianship that is one part country and two parts southern soul. Steel Magnolia's debut single on Big Machine Records, "Keep On Lovin' You," skyrocketed into the Top 5 on the Billboard Country Songs Chart, landed a spot on the "Valentine's Day" movie soundtrack and has earned 1 million downloads to date. The rising stars earned nine award nominations in their debut year, including four from the American Country Awards, two from the Academy of Country Music Awards, two from the Country Music Television Awards and one from the Country Music Association Awards, and toured throughout the summer on Brad Paisley's H2O World Tour. Steel Magnolia's highly anticipated full-length debut, which includes the hits "Just By Being You (Halos & Wings)" and "Last Night Again," will be in stores in January 11, 2011.
Initially known for his role as DJ in Kid Rock's Twisted Brown Trucker band, Uncle Kracker has become a chart-topping, multi-platinum recording artist and songwriter in his own right. Featured on his most recent release, "Happy Hour: The South River Road Sessions," the Detroit native scored a Top 5 country radio hit with "Smile." The platinum certified smash's companion video has also been a Top 5 success on Great American Country's Top 20 Country Countdown and a Top 20 rotation favorite on "CMT Top 20 Countdown." Uncle Kracker's latest single, "Good To Be Me" (featuring Kid Rock), is already shooting up the country charts and is the namesake for his first-ever headlining country music tour. Next spring will see Uncle Kracker joining longtime friend Kenny Chesney and Zac Brown Band for their highly anticipated stadium tour. In addition to scoring No. 1 hits on his first two full length solo releases with "Follow Me" and "Drift Away," Uncle Kracker has also topped the country chart with "When The Sun Goes Down," his 2004 collaboration with Chesney. An accomplished songwriter, Uncle Kracker co-wrote a number of Kid Rock's biggest hits, including 2008's multi-format smash "All Summer Long," which peaked at No. 3 on the Country charts.
AMERICAN COUNTRY AWARDS is executive-produced by Bob Bain (TEEN CHOICE 2010, "Kids' Choice Awards"). Paul Flattery and Tisha Fein serve as producers; Fletcher Foster is co-producer; and Greg Sills is supervising producer. Michael Dempsey will direct the special.

An eight-hour drive from Saskatoon, at the end of the lone road leading into the community, sits the First Nation’s village of Sandy Bay, Saskatchewan. At the centre is Hector Thiboutot Community School, a hub of the community and home to President's Choice Children’s Charity’s first Power Full Kids | Future Growers program location.
The residents of Sandy Bay have experienced decades of flooding brought about by resource projects that have damaged the land and destroyed homes. With the lack of healthy soil and the nearest grocery store two and a half hours away, the hydroponic container farm included with the Future Growers program has been a welcome addition to the Sandy Bay school community.
“The container farm allows us to control our environment, which is very important,” says Svitlana Tulchynska, Science Teacher and Future Growers program lead. “For many students, it's the only experience they will get growing things because the northern climate and soil is not good for growing things outside.”
The Future Growers program uses technology to complement land-based food systems in communities where Indigenous food sovereignty is challenged - empowering students to use innovative growing techniques to nourish themselves and their community.
Nathan Ray, the principal at Hector Thiboutot Community School, sat in the same science program 25 years ago and believes the Future Growers program is vital to the development of students and their community.
“The program totally aligns with our way of life here in the north. Before we had grocery stores, the land was our grocery store,” Nathan explains. “Times are changing – technology is changing and we have to change along with it. The opportunity for students to work in the farm – it's like they're harvesting from the land, but with technology.”
Not only does the farm provide a consistent food source, but it also brings science to life in ways students wouldn’t normally have the opportunity to experience. “Our students don’t see a lot of technology or how they can use it in their daily life. [The farm] makes science more relevant to their everyday lives,” Svitlana explains. “When they go fishing or hunting and they learn those life skills… we're also learning how to grow the food using technology in our class.”
Svitlana’s students are excited to discover and try new foods – making the connection between pizza and the smell of basil, an herb most have not ever seen. In a community where students have few conveniences, the ability to share food they’ve grown with their elders, family and friends has brought newfound confidence.
“My mom gets excited when I bring home spinach because it's so hard to get here,” says Kenyon, student, and master grower. “We make salads and use it on burgers. It makes me happy to help my family and see them happy.”

In romance author Myers’s mainstream fiction debut, the first in a planned series, Maggie Stevens, recovering from a long, fruitless marriage to a selfish man who stole her youth, receives word that her estranged father has died and left her a gold mine in Colorado. Maggie heads to the very small town of Eureka to see what she can learn about the man she’s never known (he left when she was three). There, she falls in love with the town, with its “four hundred or so permanent residents,” including the enigmatic Jameso Clark. Through her time in rural Colorado, she discovers strength she didn’t know she had, and a community that she never thought she’d find. Myers (The Birdman’s Daughter, as Cindi Myers) has found an ideal setting in this gold-mining backwater, but this book unfolds along predictable lines. Neither Maggie nor her story are as compelling as Eureka, Colo. (Dec.)

The Los Angeles Lakers were reportedly set on having Ty Lue become their next head coach, until they weren’t anymore. And much of the blame should be laid at the organization’s feet.
Not only were the Lakers reportedly pushing Lue to include Jason Kidd on his coaching staff, they also failed to deliver an offer commensurate with Lue’s resume. According to ESPN’s Dave McMenamin and Yahoo’s Chris Haynes, the Lakers offered Lue a three-year contract even though he and his representatives wanted a five-year deal.
It appears that even though Lue gave the Lakers the impression that he wanted to be the coach of the Lakers and not the coach of LeBron, they didn’t want to be connected to Lue outside of their commitment to James. So even though the Lakers were reportedly wary of the perception that James is running the show, they made their decisions based off his timeline rather than the franchise’s.
The Lakers, for the umpteenth time, continue to confuse. Their actions continue to display a lack of self-awareness and a lack of best practices among the NBA’s top teams.

As announced earlier today, Kanye West has enlisted fiancé Kim Kardashian’s help for his most recent music video, for the single “Bound 2.” The video is officially out now and, without trying to be a hater or anything, it’s so silly and ridiculous it’s almost touching.
Kanye premiered it on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and, as you can see in the vid above, he was mighty proud of his and Nick Knight’s work. The first reactions to it though say that he really doesn’t have a solid reason to feel this proud.
The video stars Kim Kardashian, his fiancé and mother of his child, mostly sans clothes, riding on a bike with Kanye. They hug a lot and they also stare into each other’s eyes (and the camera) a lot, while beautiful scenery is being run in the background and the wind ruffles Kim’s blonde hair.
There is a certain cheesiness and showing-off-ness (this is not a word, I know) to the video that makes it ridiculous, but I do think Kanye deserves credit for one thing: he loves his girl and he’s willing to let her be in his music video whichever way she wants to be (you just know this was Kim’s idea!) and he clearly doesn’t care what you or I think about it.
“Bound 2” is Kanye’s love declaration for Kim and I think it should be regarded as such. Otherwise, we might chuckle to death at how silly and amateurish it comes across.

Vinayakudu, starring Happy Days girl Sonia and debutant Krishnudu, is going to have its music launch in the first week of September and its screen hit is planned early October. Made on Prem Movies banner, it is produced by Prem Kumar Patra (who made critically acclaimed film Aa Naluguru). Direction is by Saikiran Adivi, who earlier worked in the direction department along with Sekhar Kammula for the film Happy Days. The duo has today arranged a press meet at their production house at Film Nagar, Hyderabad.
Vinayakudu – making of an unforgettable film
Producer Prem Kumar Patra said: "The shoot of Vinayakudu is complete and dubbing work has commenced at Annapoorna Studios. Recording of one song with Kunal Ganjawala will be done in a few days. Editing is finished, but for simple patch works. The film's output thrills me very much because it surpassed my expectations. I can say confidently – that my director Saikiran is going to give the audience an unforgettable film through Vinayakudu. Seeing his creativity, I never interfered into his work. The budget swelled as against our previous expectation, touching double the figure. We too thought it was necessary. Editor Marthand Venkatesh, who saw the rushes, said that the film would definitely touch the youth segment."
Anticipating good business
"We are getting good offers for the satellite rights. But, we want to wait till the dubbing is over. National Award winning PG Vinda's cinematography and Shyam Prasan's music are assets to the film. Happy Days heroine Sonia performed extraordinarily. She is a natural actress. The girl is going to win a permanent place in the hearts of Andhra Pradesh youth with this film. I also did a key role in the film. When I saw the rushes, I was stunned that I too looked handsome. Yesteryears actress Tulasi (of Sankarabharanam fame), who is now in Bangalore, is making her second inning into Tollywood with Vinayakudu. Anikata's role will provide a turning point in the film. We preferred own dubbing for all the artists to retain the original feel," Prem Kumar added.
A commercial crossover film
Saikiran Adivi said: "Though Vinayakudu began as a small budget film, it received much media hype thanks to our combination. I think it is due to our track record … the producer earlier made hit film Aa Naluguru; and myself associated with Sekhar Kammula for Happy Days. Now, the film is considered one of the most anticipated films. It is a crossover film. You can say it is a commercial crossover film. A fresh feel with a romantic comedy with all matured characters. The film's budget got doubled because of our commitment to execute the film without any compromise."
Sekhar Kammula's influence a privilege
Replying to a question, he said: "As I am from the school of Sekhar Kammula, you will definitely see his influence on me. But, going by the script of Vinayakudu, I have tried my level best to stop the influence catching me to a great extent. However, I feel it a privilege to be influenced by Sekhar Kammula's direction and reflecting it in my films." To another question: "So far, we have not introduced our hero Krishnudu. He will be introduced to the media and the guests at the audio release function."

Johan Harju , a 22 year-old 2007 sixth round pick, is unlikely to be a member of the Tampa Bay Lightning organization this fall. Last summer the Lightning attempted to bring the big Swedish winger to North America, but Harju chose to stay with Lulea of the Swedish Elite League. All he did in his return to Lulea was score a career high 20 goals in 51 games. That goal total was good enough for first on his team and among the leaders in Sweden's highest league. He also added 8 assists for 28 points and 55 penalty minutes. According to Lightning General Manager Jay Feaster, Harju is under contract for another year in Sweden, and without an International Ice Hockey Federation transfer agreement, Harju can not be signed by Tampa Bay - despite the Lightning's wishes to do so. Therefore, Lulea would have to voluntarily release Harju from his contract in order for Harju to sign in Tampa this summer, which is extremely unlikely. The Lightning will retain his rights.
Mitch Fadden , a center who was last seen with his Lethbridge teammates watching Spokane celebrate the WHL championship on the Hurricane's home ice (The Chiefs would go on to win the Memorial Cup), will likely be in the Lightning system by fall. Feaster states the club will try and sign Fadden, a 2007 fourth round pick who was among WHL regular season and playoff point leaders, but they are under no mandated deadline to do so. Fadden had 34 goals and 55 assists for 89 points in 72 games this year for Lethbridge, then added 5 goals and 15 assists in his first 15 playoff games before being shutout in the WHL Finals sweep. Fadden, when signed, will add much needed forward depth to the Lightning system. If he does not come to an agreement with Tampa Bay, he can return to Lethbridge as an overage player, though talk in the Lethbridge media is his rights may be traded to another WHL club to make room for younger talent.
Whereas Fadden is not under a mandated deadline to be signed, 2006 sixth round pick Dane Crowley  must be signed by June 1 or the Lightning forfeits his rights. The Bolts are interested in signing the two-way defenseman, but to an AHL contract through Norfolk. According to Feaster, an AHL deal has been offered to Crowley, who had one assist in five games with Norfolk under an amateur tryout agreement at the end of the year. Crowley had 10 goals and 29 points to go along with 131 penalty minutes as an overager with WHL Everett this season before joining Norfolk. In 2006-07 he accumulated 8 goals and 36 points with Swift Current and Everett.
Finally, Feaster reports no decision has been made regarding Luca Cunti 's immediate future. Cunti, a 2007 third round pick, was to play with St. Cloud State last season but after a long, drawn-out process, had his amateur eligibility refused by the NCAA Clearinghouse. Cunti then played with Chicago of the USHL, where the center had 11 goals and 32 points in 34 games before adding 2 goals and 3 assists in 6 playoff contests. Near the end of his tumultuous year, Cunti told McKeenâ€™s Hockey  he didn't know where he would play in 2008-2009, but would likely leave the decision up to Tampa Bay. Feaster told Bolt Prospects they'd like to see Cunti play major junior (Canadian Hockey League) next year, but no formal decision has been made yet. The CHL Import Draft is normally held a few days after the NHL Entry Draft.

Changing a few things...
So first of all, I'm moving from MWF to TTh. This thing is meant to really be a little something to entertain you guys while I work on my game. I don't really have the energy to go through college, create a comic, and create a game. So I'm making it less frequent to have more time to work on said game.
Also, I decided to make a tumblr account for this: http://specsthefox.tumblr.com
Mind you, I've never used a blogging site before. Leave suggestions on other sites you like better if you don't mind.
Why did I make a different site? Public Static Void isn't really a normal comic like AKK is. It's going to have some AKK related comics and commentary, drawn comics, random drawings, fan-oriented stuff, updates on the game I'm working on, and other random stuff you may have interest in. That sounds like it would fit better on a blogging site rather than a comic website. Or at least I think so.
btw, I'm thinking of updating the tumblr more often than SJ. I was thinking of having a party comic to open it up with, and I'd greatly prefer if you send me sprites over tumblr rather than SJ.
Please help me start up the comic in a way we will all enjoy! And I'll continue to work on the game so that I could release that.

Andrea Neal’s editorial in the Indianapolis Star yesterday was a reminder that evidence is no match for strongly-held beliefs.
Neal seconded Governor Pence’s ill-considered call for a ten percent reduction in Indiana’s income tax. Even the Republicans in the General Assembly have recognized how harmful such a tax cut would be in a state where cities and towns are already strangling, thanks to the even more ill-considered tax caps Mitch Daniels managed to enshrine in the Indiana constitution. Neal made a familiar argument: lower taxes will lead to more economic growth and more job creation.
This argument sounds logical. Leave businesses with more cash and they’ll spend it to expand and hire. I remember being persuaded by that theory myself when I first became involved in policy and political life. The problem is, the evidence refutes it.

Cleaning up and The Shadow in the Glass's "About the Authors" section gave a little chuckle:
JUSTIN RICHARDS is a writer and editor. Amongst other misdemeanours, he acts as Doctor Who Range Consultant to BBC Worldwide, which means that if you don't like the books, basically all his fault. That's doubly true for this one. One of Justin's goals was to avoid having to write a Doctor Who novel. So here it is.
STEPHEN COLE is a writer and editor. Amongst other misdemeanours, he acted as Doctor Who Range Consultant to BBC Worldwide, which means that if you used to dislike the books, basically it was all his fault. That's doubly true for this one. One of Stephen's goals was to write a Doctor Who novel -- so here's his second in a month.
"Courage isn't a matter of not being frightened you know; It's being afraid and doing what you have to do anyway."
Randomly came across this looking at new Doctor Who posts on Twitter! What kind of Tom Baker weirdness is this?!🤣
From his outfit and the set, I think that's Tom having a bit of fun while recording 'Late Night Story', a series of VERY macabre story readings broadcast (late at night, obviously) on the BBC in the late (night) Seventies.
They're included on 'The Armageddon Factor' DVDs in the 'Key to Time' box set and must be one of the best non-Who-related 'extras' in the whole range. For fans of Tom and very creepy stories, of course.
Realizing that my family’s annual Christmas tradition of writing bizarre and cryptic riddles on all the to and from labels ( instead of writing the name of the giver and recipient) on all the presents that somehow relate the gift they are for and not letting the recipient open the gift until they try to solve the riddle ( yes Christmas gift exchanges in my family do take several hours for this reason)is something either the Doctor or the Celestial Toymaker would definitely do😄🎁🤔

For complicated due to the depths of rules, I think Dark Heresay is likely the winner. However, I think they work. As in depth and detailed as they are, they work for me.
For overall complication, SLA Industries wins the prize from me. The setting is all over the place between the different books over the decades of publication and companies publishing it. The magic rules are something that have never made sense to me and the combat is over the top. And I still love it and all of its supplements. The more that gets published, the more it all conceals.
And if that's enough of a reason to like it, well, I suggest you check out The Esoterrorists from Pelgrane Press. All of the monsters from SLA Industries could fit into an Esoterrorists game, because the Ocean Game is by the same creator as SLA Industries.

The items below are the most common materials that Le Creuset uses for their best-selling kitchenware collections. The materials are of the highest caliber and it’s worth every penny that you pay.
Le Creuset is most famous for its cast iron cookware as it is the main material used for their first product line released all the way in 1925. The enameled cast iron is always inspected by 15 seasoned artisans to make sure it upholds its quality and style.
The enameled cast iron is perfect for simmering and searing so whether you’re making a stew or a stir fry, the Le Creuset cast iron cookware is effective either way. The heavy lid of the cast iron cookware help effectively trap the heat inside, making the ingredients more robust and flavorful. The cast iron is also perfect in distributing heat and can resist heat up to 190 degrees Celsius. Le Creuset uses cast iron for its famous French ovens and casseroles, marmites, grills, and skillets.
If you experience uneven cooking (e.g. food comes out raw in the middle but burnt on the outside), then consider Le Creuset stoneware. Their stoneware is specifically made for baking pies, casseroles, quiches, and many more. It provides even heating throughout and will always cook your food in a uniform fashion. The stoneware is covered by an exterior enamel that protects them from scratches and other damages.
The Le Creuset stoneware is not suitable to be used on a direct heat. However, they are safe to be used in the oven and can withstand temperature up to 260 degrees Celsius. The stoneware kitchen tools are also made with less than 1% porosity, meaning that there will be less moisture absorption that can lead to rippling, cracking, and crazing in the interior of the stoneware. You can get stoneware bowls and dishes, cups and mugs, miniature stoneware, and ramekins and crock from Le Creuset Philippines.
Silicone kitchenware provides you a more affordable alternative than the typical stainless steel kitchenware. Le Creuset works with renowned chefs and culinary enthusiasts to deliver comfortable and innovative silicone kitchenware for its loyal customers. The handles of the silicone spatulas are made with wood to give you a comfortable grip and avoid any discomfort when cooking for a long time.
The silicone used are of premium standard, able to handle rigorous used when stirring and folding. The silicone can resist heat up to 250 degrees Celsius or 482 degrees Fahrenheit. They are dishwasher safe, extremely durable, stain resistant, and non-oxidizing. It can also resist strong odors and flavor absorption. Other than silicone spatulas, there are silicone hot pads available for you to put your hot Le Creuset cast iron Dutch pan on.
If you still prefer the traditional and typical non-stick pots and pans, Le Creuset also offers their own version of the product. Toughened Non-Stick, or TNS, includes a range of cooking pans with a PFOA-free non-stick surface. The pans are long-lasting and also as durable as the other Le Creuset’s cookware. You can also use them on direct heat and inside ovens, since they can stand heat up to 260 degrees Celsius.
To avoid damaging the non-stick quality of the TNS pans, do not rinse it with cold water when the pans are still hot. Use a cleaning pad specifically made for non-stick surfaces and avoid using abrasive cleaning sponges. You can also put the TNS pans inside the dishwasher but due to their non-stick quality, washing by hand is made super easy.
There are also Le Creuset bakeware and cookware that are made with stainless steel. You can opt for two different types of specialized stainless steel: 3-ply and signature stainless steel. The 3-ply stainless steel is sourced and manufactured in Portugal using the finest materials. It uses an aluminum core in between premium stainless steel. It also has a magnetic quality, making it easy for you to use it on an induction hob. They can stand heat for up to 200 degrees Celsius or 400 degrees Fahrenheit.


text: In the mid-17th century, James Compton, 3rd Earl of Northampton--an important Royalist military commander at the time of England's Civil War--appears to have written several plays that resonate with the major social issues of his day: war, regicide, and usurpation. These works range from close translations of classical plays to seemingly original works. While it is uncertain whether or not the plays were performed in their own time, they have definitely not been seen in modern times, until very recently. Director Luke Beattie is in the process of staging the premiere productions of all ten of the plays in the collection, and now joins Outsider's Inn to bring one of these plays, Mariamne, to the stage for its modern world-premiere. Mariamne tells the story of Herod the Great and his second wife, Mariamne, as they are driven towards doom by the conflicting forces of love, and jealousy, suspicion, and revenge.


text: Driving from Napier to Palmerston North Dec15th on a photographic trip around NZ. Happy to do multiple stops, but as I will be in a hire car apparently I can't take it on unsealed roads. I want to leave early to catch the sunrise somewhere along the road, but which route should I take. Route 50 or route 2. I'm a sixty yr old woman travelling alone so any exuberant walks for a good photo op would need careful consideration for the sunrise.
