Deborah Turbeville never intended to be a fashion photographer. She was born in Massachusetts in 1932, and her career came about by a strange, slow osmosis. First, she was a model for the American designer Claire McCardell; next, an editor at Harper’s Bazaar; then, a student of Richard Avedon’s; and finally, a freelance photographer in her own right. Turbeville dreamed of working like Eugène Atget, who spent his time photographing street corners and stairs, leaving behind an archive of exquisitely patinated snaps of Paris. Instead, fashion became her métier. She accepted the work she was assigned, but suffused her images with a decidedly unfashionable vision—spectral, melancholic, and sometimes eerie.
Despite consistently glowing reviews throughout her career as a photographer, and articles heralding her as a change-maker in fashion (a 1977 article in The New York Times was titled “The Deborah Turbeville Look”), her work, though revered, has slowly slipped away in time. Now, one decade after Turbeville’s death, at 81, in 2013, a new exhibition has just opened at Lausanne’s Photo Elysée. Serving as her first retrospective, “Deborah Turbeville: Photocollage” focuses on a previously unseen body of work—collages. Torn and taped, overlapping and otherworldly, these images show Turbeville rejecting photography’s ideal of silver-flecked purity. Leaving the collages deliberately distressed, she’s embracing what she referred to as the “edge.”
Although fragments of Turbeville’s fashion imagery are present in these collages, Nathalie Herschdorfer, the Elysée’s director and the curator of the show, wanted to position her as an artist beyond the narrow confines of fashion photography. “My work aimed to highlight the artist who experiments, who explores the image,” she explains.
“It’s because of will,” Turbeville said of her experiments in a 1981 article in Vogue. “It takes will, for anyone who’s exploratory, inventive, to oppose the conventions, the norms.... I wanted [the pictures] to be timeless, to throw them into a time warp.”
The photographs and collages on view possess the same haunting yet disturbing Surrealism one finds in the New Wave film Last Year at Marienbad, by Alain Resnais. Turbeville loved his work. In her collages, there are crumbling statues of gods, and women walking through barren gardens. A sense of unease underlies the surface beauty. “She imbues her photographs with a romantic, sensual, and psychological atmosphere,” says Herschdorfer. “Her photography is based on multiplicity and fragmentation, the strange and the timeless.”
Though she was frequently compared to contemporaries such as Guy Bourdin and Helmut Newton, their portrayals of femininity and sexuality were greatly different from hers. One of Turbeville’s most infamous photographs features five women slouching in an abandoned bathhouse, prompting interpretations that ranged from homosexuality to the more sinister evocation of Auschwitz. “If we look closely at Turbeville’s work, we see that her models are graceful women with a Sapphic sensuality immersed in a kind of boredom,” says Herschdorfer, “the opposite of the glamorous images of sex symbols immortalized by the star photographers of the time.”
The so-called Deborah Turbeville look lived only as long as its creator, but, then again, it never really was a style that could be successfully copied. A visit to this retrospective ushers us into the time warp she so greatly desired.
“Deborah Turbeville: Photocollage” is on at Photo Elysée, in Lausanne, Switzerland, through February 25, 2024

Discover the Rich History of Central African Republic
Central African Republic is a landlocked country located in the heart of Africa. It is surrounded by six other countries and is home to a rich history that dates back thousands of years. From powerful kingdoms to colonialism and independence, the country has gone through significant changes. In this article, we will take a journey through time and explore the fascinating history of Central African Republic.
Central African Republic: A Journey Through Time
Central African Republic is a country with a long and complex history. It is believed that the first humans settled in the region over 10,000 years ago. Later, various kingdoms and empires emerged in the area, including the Sao, the Kanem-Bornu Empire, and the Banda Kingdom. These kingdoms were known for their wealth and power, and they played a significant role in the region’s history.
The Kingdoms of Central African Republic
The Kingdoms of Central African Republic were some of the most powerful in Africa. The Sao Kingdom was the first to emerge, and it was followed by the Kanem-Bornu Empire, which dominated the region for centuries. Later, the Banda Kingdom, which was known for its skilled metalworkers and warriors, emerged. These kingdoms traded with other kingdoms in Africa and beyond, and they played a crucial role in the trans-Saharan trade.
Colonialism and Independence in Central African Republic
In the late 19th century, European powers began colonizing Africa, and Central African Republic was no exception. The country was divided into different zones under French control, and the region became known as Ubangi-Shari. The French exploited the country’s natural resources and forced the people to work on plantations. Central African Republic gained independence in 1960, but it has faced political instability and conflict since then.
Contemporary Central African Republic: Challenges and Opportunities
Today, Central African Republic faces many challenges, including political instability, poverty, and conflict. However, there are also opportunities for the country to grow and develop. The government is working to stabilize the country and promote economic growth, and there are many international organizations that are supporting these efforts. Despite the challenges, Central African Republic is a country with a rich history and a bright future.
Discovering the rich history of Central African Republic can help us understand the country’s past, present, and future. By exploring the kingdoms, colonialism, and independence that have shaped the country, we can gain a deeper appreciation for its culture and people. While there are challenges that Central African Republic faces today, there are also opportunities for growth and progress. As the country looks towards the future, it will continue to build on its rich history and create a brighter tomorrow for its people.

German lender Commerzbank has finalised plans to cut 10,000 jobs and close hundreds of branches as part of its latest cost reduction and digitisation strategy.
The latest overhaul comes barely a month after Manfred Knof took over the reins of the bank.
By 2024, the bank intends to cut nearly a quarter of its full-time employees and its branch network will be brought down to 450 from 790.
Knof said it is a necessary ‘bitter pill’ and added that “our new strategy creates the prerequisites for a sustainably profitable Commerzbank.”
The portfolio manager of one of the top 10 investors in Commerzbank, Andreas Thomae, said: “Knof is trying to make the bank fit enough to stand alone on its own feet.”
Other big shareholders in the bank such as the German government, regulators and the US private equity company Cerberus also supported the decision.

Commerzbank also announced that it expects to post a net loss of nearly €2.9b for 2020, compared to profit of €585m a year earlier.
The bank will announce its complete financial results on 11 February 2021.
The restructuring is expected to bring in €1.4bn or around 20% reduction in costs by 2024.
The restructuring expenses could total up to €1.8bn and they will be funded from the bank’s existing funds. It had also set aside a provision of €800m in the financial year 2020 to cover for a substantial portion of the restructuring expenses that it would incur.
Last month, the bank decided to allocate €610m to cover for 2,300 planned job cuts that are expected to take place between this year and 2024.

A significant upgrade is due to the storage technology used in mobile phones. We are talking about UFS 4.0, a new iteration of universal flash storage (UFS) that promises to double the speeds provided by the generation it will replace. 2023 looks to be a pivotal year for the introduction of USF 4.0. Which will make its debut in the latest high end smartphones from manufacturers like Xiaomi and Samsung.
In reality, Samsung was the company that unveiled the brand-new, lightning-fast UFS 4.0 storage in May 2022. What is this UFS 4.0, though? What benefits does it have over UFS 3.1? We go through this in this article so you can understand what it means for your to have UFS 4.0. And how it might enhance performance.
UFS 4.0 is the next flash storage evolution
The most recent iteration of universal flash storage technology is called UFS 4.0, or Universal Flash Storage. It will take the place of the UFS 3.1 technology. Which was available in the market in 2020 and is found in many mobile phones. In essence, it provides faster data processing and more efficient energy use, which directly affect the performance of the smartphone.
Fast storage is essential to a device’s operation. Even if a mobile device has the fastest processor. If its storage is slow, the experience will not be the best. Therefore, the new UFS 4.0 will enable the phone to operate more quickly. When turning on and when loading applications by relying on speeds up to twice as powerful as UFS 3.1.
Samsung advanced that mass production of these UFS 4.0 chips would start in the third quarter of last year when it announced its introduction in May 2022. Therefore, it is anticipated that they would be prepared for the Samsung Galaxy S23 debut, the company’s next flagship killing device.
According to the most recent rumors and product leaks, UFS 4.0 technology is anticipated to appear in upcoming models of the Xiaomi 13, Vivo X90 Pro+, and Nubia RedMagic 8, always paired with the best features available. Keep in mind, however, that initially, it will only be available on high end smartphones.
Gizchina News of the week
Samsung will be making the chip smaller, with maximum measurements of 11 x 13 x 11 millimeters. Additionally, it appears that the model with 1 TB of RAM will have the maximum capacity.
UFS 4.0 vs UFS 3.1
First off, UFS 4.0 is twice as quick as UFS 3.1, making mobile phone experiences speedier. The read speed of UFS 4.0 increases to 4,200 MB/s from 2,100 MB/s for the previous iteration. The write speed has also increased from 1,200 MB/s in UFS 3.1 to 2,800 MB/s in UFS 4.0.
The smartphone will be quicker at crucial functions like turning on or opening applications. Because to its significantly faster data processing. This is unquestionably one of the major benefits of UFS 4.0’s introduction to mobile devices.
On the other hand, and as we have already indicated, this new flash storage technology offers an improvement of 46% in terms of energy consumption compared to the previous generation. Although a mobile phone’s storage is not the area that uses the most power, as properly noted by XDA Developers, it is still appreciated that the new processor is more effective.
Finally, one of the benefits of UFS 4.0 is that it is smaller in size. Giving manufacturers more room inside the mobile phone for other components. Beware, Universal Flash Storage 4.0 technology is coming and will not only enhance future mobile phones, according to Samsung. But it will also be crucial for augmented reality and virtual reality applications in cars.

The beginning of the story starts out with 4 kids who’s names are Lucy, Nate, Brian, and Bradley. They are all friends who thought they saw 2 burglars rob Furry Feet Pet Shop. So, they decided to follow them everywhere they went. First the burglars went to Ellie’s Diner and drank something. Next, they went to the Elderly Housing and picked up somebody and left. Then ,they went to the Shangri-LA Hotel and left through the back door after they checked to see if someone they were looking for was there. After they left they were going to Nate’s house and from there the friends found out that the burglars were not burglars but were actually Lucy’s parents coming home for Lucy’s birthday on New Years Eve.

Involved in this case were Ronnie Allen Dickens, who was a minor at the time, Louise Dickens who was next friend, Helen Louise Dickens, and Dan Ira v. the Johnson Board of Education, Gerald Buckles, and Martha Riggs. Ronnie was a student at Mountain City Elementary School in Johnson County Tenn. Ronnie was in the sixth grade. ("DICKENS BY DICKENS v. Johnson County Bd. of Educ., 661 F. Supp. 155 (E.D. Tenn. 1987)") Ronnie’s teacher Martha Riggs decided to place Ronnie in a “Timeout” because of his disruptive behavior. Ms. Riggs had attempted other strategies with Ronnie but they were not successful. The “Timeout” area was made of cardboard from a refrigerator box that was around five feet tall.

As part of a system students, primarily students of color, have been targeted for searches during school, an institution teenagers are required to take. As a result of compulsory schooling, there has been an increase of incarceration of students of color due to practices implemented by schools.

Zero tolerance describes a strict and uncompromising form of administration that penalizes any forms of offenses. This encourages other practices such as random searches against students, which threatens their right to not be subjected against unreasonable searches, in other words their
The period of the trial was the 1910, more specifically the trial started on May 13, 1910 (pg.1). During the 1910 America was still developing into a world power, and many immigrants from other countries where attracted to t he prosperity that was available in America (Baily, S. L., 1983, pg.281). New York State specifically was one of the fastest growing states in the country with one of the best economical prosperity for native workers, and immigrants (Baily, S.

Agnes Maples, 90, would have been forced to pay hefty fines of up to $2,500 per day if she did not get her property cleaned up.

A relative of the elderly widow's had been storing his belongings and dumping his trash in her yard for years. When the city decided to take action against Maples, she tried to get her relative to move his junk, but he would not remove it and the task proved to be too difficult for Maples to do on her own.

The first issue to be decided is whether Ms. Durand’s presence on the property of Mr. and Mrs. Moore is considered “trespassing” in order to establish burglary. Under Ohio Rev. Code § 2911.12 (A), a person is guilty of burglary if she uses force, stealth, or deception to “trespass” in an occupied structure and has the purpose to commit any criminal offense. This privilege can be expressed or implied by the owner of the property. In this case, Ms. Durand was “trespassing” under the terms of the Ohio burglary statute. While servicing the property’s rehabilitation, Ms. Durand did receive permission to enter the Moore’s townhouses. However, the work Ms. Durand was contracted to perform on the house that would permit her presence on the property was concluded. After the work was done, Ms. Durand no longer had the permission from the Moore’s to be on the property. Therefore, under Ohio Rev. Code § 2911.12, Ms. Durand was a “trespasser” on the Moore’s property, because it is implied that the permission that once granted her entrance to the townhouses had expired when her contracted work was completed.
First thing I would like to implement is where I would recommend that all offenders placed on probation and parole would have a baseline drug test. Then those with a drug abuse problem or history would have mandatory substance abuse counseling. This is because approximately two thirds of probationers can be characterized as alcohol or drug involved offenders (Treatment, 2005). I believe that this would help to lower the recidivism rate because the offenders would no longer have negative habits that take away from their monthly finances. It would also take away the need to commit crimes to pay for their drug or alcohol habits. Second, I would recommend that there be some form of government funded employment opportunities for parolees.
The relation between property and the actions that could have an injurious effect on those who surround us has been the object of many researchers, not only in the economic field, but in the legal one, too. It finds the main reason in the presence of multiple controversial cases that arise every day because of the relations that individuals suffer with other individuals, companies or even the government. In this particular case we have two parties composed by Eddie, who has an electrical company which discharges smoke. On the other hand it’s Lucille, owner of a laundry who apparently receives the damage, for the clothes get dirty because of the smoke of the electric company.

Witnessing the Chicago DJ Honey Dijon behind the decks can be as close to a spiritual experience as you can get on the dancefloor. Trading in the four-to-the-floor kick drum that provides the aortic pulse to house music, Dijon’s mid-tempo sets conduct her crowds perfectly from tantalising buildups to scattered breakdowns and communal euphoria as her soaring melodies kick in. Her debut album, 2017’s Best of Both Worlds, played as a rousing microcosm of these multihour sets, and in the years since its release, Dijon has become a sought-after producer, working this year on Beyoncé’s Renaissance.
Harnessing this collaborative experience, Black Girl Magic finds Dijon expanding her sound to incorporate a wider range of queer Black contributions to dancefloor culture, producing a 15-track masterclass in disco, new jack swing and soulful house. The driving drumbeat and piano chord stabs of Love Is a State of Mind set the hands-in-the-air tone. Standout features from the house pioneer Mike Dunn on the righteous thump of Work and from rapper Channel Tres on the sultry Show Me Some Love keep the pace moving, while the ecstatic disco of Everybody forms the album’s highlight. Here, Dijon sing-shouts a joyous refrain that calls for everybody to come together in service to an infectious synth-bass melody. It’s the perfect example of her slick production style, blending raucous energy with artful arrangement designed to play loud and get you moving. Hearing Black Girl Magic, the dancefloor is wherever you happen to be.

In Mexico’s 15 poorest municipalities – located in three southern states with large indigenous populations — more than 98% of the population lives in poverty.
A report published by national social development agency Coneval on Wednesday shows that eight of those municipalities are in Oaxaca, six are in Chiapas and one is in Guerrero.
The poorest municipality in 2020 was San Simón Zahuatlán, Oaxaca, where 99.6% of residents live in poverty. In 2019, human development in the municipality, located in the state’s Mixteca region, was comparable to that in Yemen, the United Nations said in a report.
The second poorest municipality was Cochoapa el Grande, Guerrero, where the practice of selling young girls into marriage to alleviate poverty is common. According to Coneval, 99.4% of residents in the Montaña region municipality live in poverty.
The other 13 municipalities with poverty rates above 98% were, in order, Coicoyán de las Flores, Oaxaca; San Juan Cancuc, Chiapas; San Francisco Teopan, Oaxaca; Chanal, Chiapas; San Lucas Camotlán, Oaxaca; Aldama, Chiapas; Chalchihuitán, Chiapas; San Miguel Tilquiápam, Oaxaca; Santiago Amoltepec, Oaxaca; San Miguel Mixtepec, Oaxaca; Chenalhó, Chiapas; Santiago Tlazoyaltepec, Oaxaca; and San Andrés Duraznal, Chiapas.
Five of those – San Simón Zahuatlán, Aldama, Chanal, Chalchihuitán, San Juan Cancuc – were also among the 15 poorest municipalities in the country in 2010 and 2015.
A person is considered to be living in poverty if their income is below Coneval’s poverty threshold – currently 3,898 pesos (US $187) per month in urban areas and 2,762 pesos (US $133) in rural areas – and they present at least one social deficiency out of six, among which are poor access to adequate nutrition, housing and healthcare.
A person is considered to be living in extreme poverty if their income is below 1,850 pesos per month in urban areas and 1,457 pesos in rural areas and they present at least three social deficiencies.
The 15 municipalities with the highest extreme poverty rates are also located in Oaxaca, Chiapas and Guerrero. Santiago Amoltepec ranked first in that category with 84.4% of residents living in extreme poverty.
Coneval also identified the municipalities with the highest number of residents living in poverty and extreme poverty last year.
León, Guanajuato, headed the former list with almost 817,000 impoverished people.
Five other municipalities had more than half a million poor people in 2020, when poverty levels rose due to the pandemic. They were Ecatepec, México state; Iztapalapa, Mexico City; Puebla city; Nezahualcóyotl, México state; and Toluca, México state.
Acapulco, Guerrero, had the highest number of people living in extreme poverty – more than 126,000 – while León, Iztapalapa, Toluca and Ocosingo, Chiapas, also had more than 100,000 extremely poor residents.
Coneval said that half of all Mexicans not considered poor live in just 46 urban municipalities, located mainly in the country’s central and northern states.
San Pedro Garza García, Nuevo León, an affluent municipality in the metropolitan area of Monterrey, had the lowest poverty rate in the country in 2020 with just 5.5% of residents considered poor. Human development there in 2019 was comparable to that in France, the U.N. said.
Eleven of the 15 municipalities with the lowest poverty rates last year – all 11% or lower – are in Nuevo León. The ten others are Parás, Agualeguas, Marín, Higueras, Melchor Ocampo, Abasolo, Los Herreras, General Treviño, San Nicolás de los Garza and Cerralvo.
The four other municipalities among the 15 with the lowest poverty rates last year are Benito Juárez, Mexico City; Huépac, Sonora; Riva Palacio, Chihuahua; and Abasolo, Coahuila.
A report published earlier this month said that Mexico is one of the most unequal countries in the world. The top 10% of income earners in Mexico earn over 30 times more than the bottom 50%, said the World Inequality Report 2022, completed by the World Inequality Lab.

802.11ac in-room performance for hospitality and higher education
The AP122 is the first wall plate access point specifically designed to meet the ever-increasing mobile data needs of hotel guests and resident college and university students. With gigabit- data rates, the AP122 is perfectly suited for in-room deployment needs of the hotel, cruise line and higher-education residence-hall markets.
Designed to be placed in any location flush to a wall utilizing a standard junction box, the AP122 can be installed by standard service personnel using existing CAT5/6 cabling connected from a standard wall junction box. For wired connectivity, it features two 10/100 BASE-T switch ports to support a range of in-room IP device and user connectivity options. Additionally, one of the wired ports can operate as an IEEE 802.3af-compliant PoE Out port offering up to 13 watts of power, capable of powering devices such as IP telephones. This reduces costs in additional cabling, switch ports, and power sourcing equipment. An additional pass-through port allows connectivity for digital phones and a USB port offers options for future uses. The AP122 is built to provide years of trouble-free operation and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
With guest surveys commonly ranking Wi-Fi as the most requested guest amenity for the hospitality industry, ensuring a high-quality mobile experience has never been more critical. Like other Fortinet access points, the AP122 integrates seamlessly with our Network Manager, Mobile Connect, and other application solutions to bring intelligent management and resilient wireless services to your network. The AP122 is ideal for supporting IP-based services such as VoIP, IPTV, high-speed Internet access and in-room device connectivity. With Fortinet organizations can easily offer tiered services to different users, differentiating guests, employees, students and facility.
Additionally, Fortinet's single-channel option within the Mobile FLEX platform uniquely allows the AP122 to support pervasively, full channel 802.11ac in real-world deployments, which more than double the data rate over legacy 802.11n solutions. This architecture also greatly simplifies RF coverage planning and significantly reduces wireless LAN (WLAN) deployment costs.

Two high school teachers in Louisiana were arrested on Oct. 1 after they videotaped themselves having a threesome with a 16-year-old student. Although the boy claimed the act was consensual, he was under the age of consent in Louisiana. Accordingly, the case was deemed a sexual assault and both teachers now face felony charges.
However, a different perception of the case is circulating on the Internet. A few days after the incident occurred, VICE published a piece highlighting the disgusting comments made regarding the situation, which included, “Nice,” “Atta boy,” “Best.Teachers.Ever” and “Damn…lucky dude!” Had the case involved a teenage girl and two male teachers, it is likely that the public would have demanded blood, calling for justice for the victim and for the predators to spend their entire lives behind bars. However, because the student is male and the two teachers are female, some think it is appropriate to make Van Halen references and treat the case like the tired plot line of an adult film.Unfortunately, this reaction usually happens when cases involve male victims. Demonstrated by the reaction to the Louisiana case, many in the public do not consider sexual assault against men to be serious. Despite this perception, the problem is prevalent. One in six men are sexually assaulted before they turn 18. Studies conducted from 1996 to 2005 have consistently shown that 14 to 16 percent of American men have experienced sexual assault. The Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network reports that 10 percent of sexual assault victims in the United States are men.

Can I learn to play the keyboard online?
Absolutely. While there is no doubt that having a good traditional teacher can be helpful, the fact is you can teach yourself how to play piano / keyboard very effectively with the Musiah online piano lesson course, and you can do it with or without the involvement of a traditional piano / keyboard teacher.
How can I learn to play keyboard by myself?
So, if you’re teaching yourself how to play, that’s the place to start.
- Familiarize yourself with the piano. Look at and listen to the middle keys, flat keys (left black keys), sharp keys (right black keys), bass and high tones.
- Learn where middle C is.
- Learn the basic keys.
- Learn the language of music.
What is the best way to learn keyboard online?
Where to Learn Piano Online: The 5 Best Free Piano Learning Sites
- Piano Lessons. Piano Lessons is a free resource from the teachers at Pianote.
- Pianu. For many people, their favorite artist is the reason they want to start playing music.
How long does it take to learn the keyboard?
About 6 months. This time, you’d need to practice about 20 minutes a day, 5 to 6 days per week. You’ll need very specific practice for this as well, breaking your songs into sections and really focusing on the sections that need work and will push you.
Is piano easier than guitar?
Guitar is easier for adults to learn because it is less challenging to learn songs at the beginner level. Piano, however, is easier for younger students (age 5-10) to learn because they won’t have to grip guitar fret boards, and coordinate right hand strumming patterns.
Can I teach myself to sing?
You can learn to sing in key on your own: there are plenty of famous singers who’ve managed this. However, be aware that this can take a lot of work. Learning to sing on your own can require more work than working on your voice with singing lessons or private singing tutorials.
Is learning keyboard easy?
Yet contrary to popular belief, learning to play the keyboard is that difficult, especially when coming to grips with the basics. All it really takes is hard-work, time and dedication. Plus, once you learn the basics, it becomes so much easier to play more advanced notes and chords on a keyboard.
How can I practice typing online for free?
Improve your typing speed online TypeLift is a free touch typing courseware running directly in your browser. It assists you to practice your keyboard skills efficiently and therefore increase your typing speed immensely.
Can I learn keyboard without keyboard?
It is possible to learn piano without a piano of your own, provided you have access to either a piano or keyboard to practice on regularly. If you cannot afford a piano, you may be able to find one to use regularly at a local school, your church or at the music school where you’re learning.
What’s the easiest instrument to learn?
The easiest instruments to learn are ukulele, harmonica, bongos, piano, and glockenspiel. Learning these instruments as an adult will be straightforward and accessible, and we’ve included step-by-step tips for each below.
Can I learn piano on a keyboard?
Yes, learning piano on a keyboard is possible. The layout of keys is identical on both instruments. The songs you learn to play on a piano will transfer directly to a keyboard, and vice versa, with little adjustment needed for small differences in the width of the keys or the amount of pressure needed to play them.

Small Business Saturday Kicks off ‘Hometown Vacation’ in Wellsville
Small Business Saturday will launch the village’s âHometown Holidaysâ events
A Santa Claus shortage may mean he won’t be coming to town until Christmas
A nationwide Santa shortage could mean he won’t be in malls or the holiday season.
Staff Video, USA TODAY
WELLSVILLE – The Wellsville Area Chamber of Commerce is supporting Small Business Saturday with special giveaways in local stores as the national event begins the Chamber’s holiday season.
Small Business Saturday will begin the village’s celebration of its vacation in its hometown. It begins Saturday when businesses open and continues throughout the day until businesses close. During business hours, members of the House Events Committee will take a tour of local stores to surprise unsuspecting shoppers with House gift certificates.
A committee member noted that the gift certificates will help defray the cost of shopping in the store.
Bruce Thomas, executive director of the Wellsville Area Chamber of Commerce, said, âLocal shopping on Small Business Saturdays is a way for the community to show support for local businesses that support the community. “
Everyone knows about Black Friday and, more recently, Cyber ââMonday. Black Friday is the traditional Friday after Thanksgiving, when holiday sales push businesses from red in their ledger books to black, indicating a successful year for the business. More recently, Cyber ââMonday has been recognized as the Monday following Thanksgiving, when shoppers go online to shop for holiday gifts or to search for bargains.
In 2010, the American Express company created Small Business Saturday to help local small businesses, urging people to shop locally before taking their vacation dollars out of town to shop at big box stores.
In Wellsville, Small Business Saturday will also help local artisans and artists. On Saturdays, local artisans and vendors will have items for sale at the Grant Duke Hose Company on Stevens Street. The sixth annual holiday festival is scheduled to take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The Mud Club at Wellsville Creative Arts Center will be offering a variety of ceramics and stoneware from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Small Business Saturday will also kick off the House’s hometown holiday celebration with a parade featuring floats and marchers from local businesses, organizations and clubs, at 4 p.m. The parade will bring Santa Claus to town. The man dressed in purple will light up the Lions Club’s Fantasy of Lights trees on the Library Lawn at 5:00 pm and then welcome the children in the House office until 6:00 pm The annual Laurie fireworks display Mickle Memorial will light up the sky at 6:30 p.m.
The House’s events for its hometown holiday celebration will continue on December 4, 11 and 18.

One of the biggest white whales of my author career has been the release of audiobooks. The desire has persisted from day one, but as any author can attest, they are extremely difficult to produce. Thankfully, there are talented voice actors like Hannibal Hills out in the wild. He runs the Royal Wave Media production company, and as luck would have it, he’s also a fan of Max and the Multiverse. Mr. Hills reached out to me about narrating the saga and the rest, as they say, is history. Hearing him bring these nutty characters to life has been one of the highlights of my authorship, so of course I was going to goad him into a Bezzies chat.
What do you like about audiobooks?
As a listener, I appreciate how audiobooks allow me to learn, be entertained, and enjoy stories on the go. I often listen while driving, which amounts to quite a few hours each week.
From a narrator’s perspective, audiobooks provide one of the most creative outlets for a voice actor. While performing on stage or screen, we are often limited by our age, gender, and physical appearance. However, when narrating an audiobook, we have the opportunity to play all the parts. The challenge of portraying characters of different ages, genders, and even species never gets old. Moreover, I have always loved the process of storytelling, of finding the overarching rhythm of a story and conveying it in a compelling manner. Each book I narrate presents new challenges that allow me to explore, grow, and develop my abilities behind the microphone.
What time of the day do you usually record?
I typically begin my recording sessions first thing in the morning, sometimes even at a very early hour. I find that this is the time of day when my brain and voice are at their sharpest. If I record later in the day, I tend to make more errors in my reading, and my vocal range is often limited due to natural tiredness. When I’m on a tight deadline, I’ll often take a nap to recharge before beginning a second session.
One frequent challenge for narrators is stomach noises. The microphones we use are incredibly sensitive, so any internal gurgling or bubbling is immediately picked up and difficult to edit out. As a result, I tend to avoid eating until after I’ve finished my recording for the day.
Overall, narrating audiobooks requires a lot of attention and care, but it’s a rewarding and enjoyable process that allows me to use my skills as a voice actor to their fullest potential.
Do you often project your own characteristics onto your characters?
I firmly believe that the key to delivering a good performance is to find the truth within each character one portrays. As a narrator, this means seeking genuine emotions and responses within oneself, and projecting them onto the characters we voice. This holds true even for the most extreme and outlandish characters we may be asked to portray. Whether it’s a mischievous goblin, a futuristic robot, a saucy old lady, or a conniving scientist, I know that somewhere deep within me, there is an aspect of myself that can give life to that character.
On any given day, I may have to search within myself to find that inner voice and bring it to the surface. It’s a challenge that requires skill and sensitivity, but it’s also what makes the process so rewarding. By delving deep and discovering the truth within each character, I can help to create a truly authentic and engaging audiobook experience for listeners.
Do you believe a book cover plays an important role in the selling process?
As an audiobook publisher and producer, one of the first things I consider when assessing a book for licensing is the cover. A well-designed cover can tell us a lot about the book itself and about the author or publisher behind the project.
First and foremost, a cover can demonstrate how well the rights holder understands their readers’ expectations. In genre fiction, covers often use visual cues to provide a shorthand to prospective readers. A well-designed cover that incorporates these cues shows that the rights holder understands their marketplace, and that the book has the potential for greater sales.
A cover can also indicate how invested the rights holder is in the project. A professionally-produced cover can demonstrate that the rights holder has faith in the quality and salability of their product. If the rights holder believes in the book, that makes us more inclined to believe in it as well.
Overall, the cover of a book can be a powerful tool in capturing the attention of potential readers and in demonstrating the quality and marketability of a product. As a publisher and producer, we carefully consider all aspects of a book, and the cover is just one of the many factors we take into account when making our decisions.
Given the chance to live your life again, what would you change about yourself?
If I could change one thing about the course of my life, it would be to discover meditation practice far sooner. Since I began meditating around 10 years ago, the benefits and changes that have come to my life have been both overwhelming and extraordinary. Meditation begins as a tool for training, exercising, and developing one’s ability to attend and focus, but develops into the ability to access and understand potentials and facets of one’s nature that were previously dormant. Through a meditative practice, I have overcome not only difficult aspects of my own past, but found successful paths to meet enumerable and wonderful challenges in my life. I begin each day with a minimum of 30 minutes meditation practice. Sometimes this is simple mindfulness training, sometimes a visualization practice, and sometimes concentration on an issue to explore New Dimensions of a problem or event in marvelous new ways. The most wonderful thing is that anyone has the ability to meditate. In my opinion, meditation should be taught and encouraged as prolifically as exercise among young people, and that the benefits of this to individuals and our society would be extraordinary.
What is the most important thing about a book in your opinion?
In my view, the key element that brings any book, scene, or character to life is dynamic tension. This tension – the struggle to overcome obstacles or achieve a goal – is at the heart of all great stories. Without a clear sense of the tension a character is facing, it is impossible to fully portray them with authenticity.
Some of the most enjoyable scenes I have been lucky enough to portray involve two or more characters whose goals are at odds with one another, or a character who is struggling against their environment. When tension is present, writing becomes more than just a collection of static descriptions; it transforms into a dynamic and engaging narrative that captivates the reader.
While beautiful prose can certainly be appealing, it is the tension and conflict within a story that truly draws readers in and keeps them invested. As a narrator, I strive to bring this tension to life in every book I work on, in order to fully engage the listener and make the story as compelling as possible.
Do you drink? Smoke?
Although I no longer drink or smoke, I certainly used to in my youth. Back in the early 90s, I was the lead singer in a band for a number of years, and alcohol and cigarettes were perhaps some of the more time-honored vices in which I indulged. As a voice actor, smoking, even the gentle pleasures of marijuana, presents a danger to one’s instrument. Some listeners may be pleased, however, that edibles remain firmly on the table as an option, if desired.
I chose to give up alcohol some time ago, not because of addiction, but because I found that even one glass in the evening left my mind less than optimal when I worked to greet the day. I became particularly aware of this during my morning meditations. I therefore decided that the benefits of abstinence from alcohol far outweighed any hollow or transitory pleasures of mild intoxication in the evening. Since quitting alcohol entirely, I have noticed significant long-term improvements in my mental clarity and overall feeling of mental and physical well-being.
Alcohol, much like smoking previously, is often glamorized within our culture. However, I believe the reality of alcohol consumption is considerably less sexy or beneficial to the creative process than fiction would have us believe. While I would not advocate for any legal prohibition on alcohol, I believe everyone’s life is improved by its absence.
Do you mentor?
In recent years, I have found great joy in mentoring and teaching those who are new to the world of audiobook narration. Given the isolated nature of our work, some form of coaching is essential when starting out in this industry. At the moment, I am working on creating a few small courses and software tools that I hope will benefit my fellow narrators. However, I also want to continue working with many talented individuals on a one-on-one basis.
What does the word ‘retirement’ mean to you? Do narrators ever retire?
Even the most powerful voice inevitably ages over time. As we get older, we lose energy, range, and stamina needed to engage in long hours of energetic narration behind the microphone. While I hope to have at least 10 more years of recording available to me, my ultimate goal is to reach 500 completed titles before I retire from narration. When my voice work comes to an end, I plan to continue producing, writing, and teaching for a good while longer. And who knows? There may be other professional adventures waiting for me down the road, even after this remarkable audiobook journey comes to a close.
Name three things that you think will be obsolete in ten years.
How we wish we could have the power of foresight! Many of us would love to travel back to the 90s and invest in Amazon, or just a decade ago and buy Bitcoin at $6 per coin. It’s a fun game to try and guess the future, and some of the most entertaining works of fiction make gloriously inaccurate predictions about what’s to come. So, here are my three guesses for things that may be obsolete in the year 2033: First, single-use plastic carry bags. Second, cryptocurrency mining (as proof of stake is more efficient). And third, Twitter (it’s been outdated for years, and Elon seems dedicated to killing it off as quickly as possible).

Climate change and direct anthropogenic impact are recognized as two major factors affecting catchment runoff. This study investigated the separate effect of each of these factors for runoff from the important Tunisian Merguellil catchment. For this purpose, more than forty years of hydrological data were used. The methodology was based on hydrological characterization, NDVI index to monitor land use dynamics, and the Budyko approach to specify origin of change. The results show that hydrological change is much more important upstream than downstream. The last three decades display a 40% reduction in runoff. This is associated with the direct influence of humans, who are responsible for about 78% of the variation in flow. It appears that climate change contributes to less than about 22%. The combination of increased cultivated land and decreased annual rainfall is the main reason for reduced catchment runoff. Consequently, these effects threaten the sustainable runoff, water in reservoirs, and future water supply in general. Ultimately, the available runoff remains an important parameter and a key indicator to guide the choices of decision-makers and practitioners in current and future climatic conditions. This contributes to supporting sustainable management of remaining water resources.

Anyone who owns a wireless keyboard knows how frustrating it is when your batteries suddenly drop dead. It always happens at the perfectly wrong moment; we're either just about to finish writing that mid-term paper or we're right in the middle of a heated firefight.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could put our minds together and come up with some kind of renewable power source for our wireless keyboards? Honestly, calculators have pulled it off for years without any hang-ups, why are we still waiting? Well we're not anymore, thanks to Logitech, our days of buying those quantity over quality battery packages may be over.
Logitech has introduced the long-overdue, solar-powered wireless keyboard. It works the same as any other wireless keyboard, you just plug the USB receiver into your computer and start typing. There's no software to install and best of all, no batteries to buy.
The keyboard itself is only 1/3" thick, and if you're worried about how well the lights in your home will power this thing, Logitech says the keyboard can hold a charge for up to 3 months in total darkness! If that's not enough, they will also have an app available November 15th that will show you not only how much juice you have left, but also how much power your lights are giving the device. The keyboard is available for pre-order at Logitech.com for about $80, which isn't bad when you don't have to worry about batteries. It'll be in stores later this month.

Gee Opening-Day Starter For Bisons On Thursday
The Buffalo Bisons announced their 2011 Opening Day Roster today. The Herd will open the 2011 season on Thursday, April 7 against the Syracuse Chiefs at Coca-Cola Field (3:05 p.m.).
The 2011 Bisons will feature 19 players with major league experience, including 12 that played at the game’s top level last season. That list includes nine players who spent time with the Mets in 2010.
As the Mets did with Pelfrey, the Bisons will hand the Opening Day starting job to, RHP Dillon Gee, who, as you may remember, struck out a modern era single-season record 165 batters last season. He will be joined in a star-studded starting rotation by Mets top prospect, 21-year old RHP Jenrry Mejia, and former big leaguers, RHP Boof Bonser and LHP Casey Fossum. Sounds like a bunch of nothings behind Gee and Mejia.
The Bisons outfield contains most of the same from last season. Fernando Martinez has hit 20 home runs with the team over the past two years. Jesus Feliciano has the second-highest average (.323) in the Bisons’ modern era. And the new starting outfielder, replacing Duda, is Kirk Niewenhuis who hit 18 home runs between Double-A and the Bisons last season and rounding it out is Jason Pridie who led the 2010 Herd with nine stolen bases. So you’ve got three players who the Mets looked at, and tossed back to the minors. F-Mart is really starting to run his line with fans’ trust.
The infield will consist of Mets second base contender, Justin Turner who finished fifth in the International League with a .316 average between the Bisons and Norfolk last season. He’ll be joined by Ruben Tejada, who hit .280 in 65 games with Buffalo in 2010. Russ Adams who led last year’s club with 58 RBIs and infielder Valentino Pasucci arrived later in the season to the Bisons, clubbed 17 home runs in Buffalo. Fresh from spring training, Zach Lutz hit 17 home runs with Binghamton before his last season promotion to the Bisons and rounding it out is the surprising player who passed through waivers recently, Nick Evans who hit .314 in 37 games with the Bisons in 2010. GO EVANS!!
The catching duties in 2011 will be split between 38-year old veteran Raul Chavez and Triple-A rookie Salomon Mantiquez.
In the bullpen, the Bisons return their top two relievers from a season ago. Spring Training invitees Mike O’Connor who fanned 70 in 70.2 innings of work, while RHP Jose de la Torre posted a 2.98ERA in 36 relief appearances. Six-time minor league All-Star, RHP Dale Thayer joins the Herd from the Rays’ organization. RHP Manny Alvarez, LHP Justin Hampson, RHP Ryota Igarashi and RHP Taylor Tankersley round out the club’s bullpen.
Mike Nickeas, and Lucas Duda are likely to rejoin the Herd once Paulino is allowed to play again, and Bay is healthy once more. My guess is the first players to join the Mets this season in emergency reasons are (in order): Evans, Mejia, Gee, Turner, O’Connor, and maybe Iggy.
Good luck Herd!

Former Nottingham Forest defender Danny Fox looks set for a move to the Indian Super League.
The 34-year-old is said to have been offered a lucrative deal to join East Bengal, a newly-formed side set to be managed by Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler.
Fox signed a short-term deal with Wigan Athletic last month, but seems to have played his last game for the club - having pulled out of the squad on the eve of Saturday's 1-0 win over Doncaster Rovers, when he was down to play.
For your latest Forest news sign up to our newsletter with your email in the box at the top of the page - or click here
He is said to have been offered a longer contract with the Latics last week, but has opted to finish his career overseas.
Manager John Sheridan explained the situation to Wigan Today: “We offered Danny a deal, but he’s got other things in the pipeline.
“Danny was in the team and down to play, then I found out at 7pm on Friday he wasn’t available.

“It was a bit of a funny one... I’ve only been here a few weeks so I don’t really know the players... but I don’t feel it was the right way, the way it went.”
Fox made close to 130 appearances for the Reds, initially joining on loan from Southampton before completing a permanent switch.
He left the City Ground to head to Wigan in January 2019.
Sheridan added: “I still feel we need one or two more players to make ourselves stronger.
“I’ve already said we needed people up top but now, with Danny going, we’re probably looking at another left-sided defender.”

CV NEWS FEED // The Arizona Supreme Court heard arguments on December 12 on whether prosecutors can enforce the state’s pre-Roe v. Wade law that protects unborn children from conception until birth, with exceptions for the life of the mother.
The court’s final decision will determine whether abortion is illegal throughout pregnancy, as per the state’s pre-Roe law, or legal until 15 weeks of pregnancy, according to a 2022 law. The ruling is expected early next year.
Arizona’s abortion prohibition became unconstitutional after Roe v. Wade in 1973, but the laws were put on hold, not repealed. After Roe’s overturn in 2022, Arizona’s Attorney General at the time, Mark Brnovich, requested the injunction blocking the law’s enforcement be lifted.
The law prohibits all abortions except when necessary to save the mother’s life. Criminal penalties apply only to the abortion provider, not the woman seeking an abortion.
After Roe v. Wade was overturned, Arizona passed another bill prohibiting abortion after 15 weeks of pregnancy.
In the ongoing case, Planned Parenthood Arizona v. Mayes, the non-profit law firm Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) is representing Dr. Eric Hazelrigg.
The obstetrician and director of Choices Pregnancy Center in Arizona filed a petition in March asking the state’s high court to review a previous Court of Appeals ruling on the pre-Roe law.
“The appellate court’s ruling reinterpreted state law, against its plain meaning, to allow abortion in circumstances where the Legislature prohibited it,” ADF said in a December 11 press release. “It also enjoined officials from fully enforcing Arizona’s pro-life law to protect unborn children.”
ADF Senior Counsel Jake Warner argued on behalf of Hazelrigg in the oral arguments on Tuesday.
“The state has a growing interest in protecting unborn children,” Warner emphasized.
He noted that under the pre-Roe legislation, Arizona law protects unborn life after 15 weeks, only allowing an abortion if it is immediately necessary to save the life of the mother.
This permits abortions for ectopic pregnancies, for instance, which are medical emergencies, but would not allow abortions after 15 weeks if the medical threat was not urgent, as in cases of cancer treatment for instance.
Under Arizona’s current law, Title 36, abortions are allowed up to 15 weeks if they will save the life of the mother. Warner argued that the pre-Roe law is not in conflict with Title 36 but simply adds another restriction. ADF is asking the court to lift the 50-year-old injunction on the pre-Roe law.
Planned Parenthood Arizona (PPAZ) argued on Tuesday that ADF was pushing the court to make a decision on the right to abortion, which is not the duty of the judicial system, and further argued that “abortion is healthcare.”
ADF observed that Arizona has a history of protecting unborn life.
“Arizona’s pro-life law has protected unborn children for over 100 years, and the people of Arizona, through their elected representatives, reaffirmed that law just last year,” Warner stated in the Monday press release. “Consistent with this clear reaffirmation of life, we are urging the Arizona Supreme Court to allow the state’s pro-life law to once again protect the lives of countless, innocent unborn children.”
“Life is a human right, and Arizona’s pro-life law respects that right,” he stated.
Hazelrigg has legally represented Arizona’s unborn children as a substitute guardian since the Arizona Superior Court in Pima County appointed him for the role in September 2022. Arizona courts have been formally recognizing the substitute guardian role for unborn children for more than 50 years.

The Hardy Amies store on Savile Row could be closed after the brand entered administration earlier this month, Drapers understands.
Although a sale is on the cards for the British heritage menswear brand, the store could be closed in an effort to rescue the loss-making UK business.
A source close to the situation said: “There is significant interest in the brand, but who knows whether that involves rescuing the shop itself. [The group] is trying to secure as many retail roles as possible with other brands [in the group].”
Shop staff have suggested the Savile Row store may close in the coming weeks.
One source told Drapers: “The store is still trading although the employees suggested it may close after the end of next week. One of them said they have been told they are out of a job. I hope it gets bought because the suits are actually great but looking back they were clearly pricing everything very low.”
Freddy Khalastchi and Jonathan Bass of Menzies were appointed as administrators on 9 January.
Drapers has contacted the administrators for comment.

Actress Yogita Bihani is on cloud nine as she has bagged the role of Palak Sharma in producer Ekta Kapoor’s upcoming show, Dil Hi Toh Hai.
Yogita shot to fame when she appeared with superstar Salman Khan in the promo of the upcoming show Dus Ka Dum.
"It is a dream come true for me. First, bagging a promo with Salman and now the czarina of Indian television, Ekta Kapoor's show," Yogita said in a statement.
"It could not have been bigger than this. For any newcomer, bagging Ekta's show is the biggest platform that one can get. I am super excited and equally nervous too," she added.
Sharing more about her role, she said: "The role of Palak is that of a happy-go-lucky person with strong feminist opinions. I am looking forward to start shooting soon and hope that the audience appreciates my work."

Mayor DeLoach to discuss 2018 violence in State of the City address
Savannah Mayor Eddie DeLoach will discuss recent violence in his State of the City address on Monday.
There have been three homicides in 2018. The victims are 24-year-old Balil Whitfield, 61-year-old Tommy Allen and 12-year-old John Cooksey.
“When one person suffers in our community, everybody suffers,” Mayor DeLoach said.
He pledges the city will continue to prioritize crime reduction.
“We’ll do better and try to get these numbers down as far as safety is concerned,” Mayor DeLoach said.
Friends, family and neighbors of John Cooksey have been rallying against gun violence since the 12-year-old was shot in a funeral home on Bonaventure Road on Saturday.
“I hate that that happened. We had a two-year-old get killed in 2014 in a home, got shot. So those things happen, and we can’t ever not realize the importance of what that is,” Mayor DeLoach said.
But the mayor says he feels the city is moving in the right direction, pointing to the decrease in violent crime from 2016 to 2017.
“I think we need to stay focused on what we’re doing, continue pushing community-based policing so we try to get on the front side of it before it happens,” Mayor DeLoach said.
This time last year, Savannah police say there were four homicides.
In the three cases this year, police have either made an arrest or identified a suspect.
The mayor says he wants to tell the citizens rallying that city council supports them.
“I want them to know that we do, as the council and as a mayor and as the people who work for the city of Savannah, realize and appreciate each one and we suffer just like everyone else does when this happens,” Mayor DeLoach said.

Bad credit refers to having a poor credit rating. A credit score is defined as a statistical method of assessing an applicant's credit worthiness. Making late payments, skipping payments, and exceeding card limits or declaring bankruptcy will damage your credit rating. Your creditors will report all of these actions to the credit reporting agencies. Your creditors will report late payment, nonpayment, and so on even if your non-payment of an account was on purpose or due to financial hardship.
If you find yourself in a position where it is difficult to make payment to your creditor? You should contact them and let them know of your difficulty in making payment. Many lenders are willing to work with you on making payments. This will help maintain your credit rating until you are able to begin to making larger payments.

You do not want your credit score to falls under 620. It will make it difficult for you to obtain loans and credit cards. Here are some suggestions on raising your credit score.
