The man’s no coward, hesitates, part of him wants to fight, sees the young man turn away, crouching low, one rifle over his shoulder, the other grasped in both hands, feet race past the closed office door, they must think we made it to the stairs. He takes a step back to help, but the young man’s gone, diving through the now open door, firing rapidly to his right and is then out of sight. He turns back, the last to drop to the ground, praying for the first time in years that they make it across before the bullets come for them in the open street, only the thinning dust giving them any cover. More shots from the building behind them, but inside, he’s keeping them away from us; when I get out of this I’m going to make a programme about him, whoever he is.
Sam’s diving shots took down the two who had run past from the left, but neither was killed, one making it into the stairwell, another into an open room. He could hear them shouting, someone else was racing back up the steps, must have already started descending.
Run! He turns left, races away; find another way out, this is survival now, nothing more. He heads through the open plan space into another, a right turn, new corridor, keep weaving, find some more stairs. In the distance he can hear voices behind, hunting him, the crackle of radios, how many more of them are there? Finally, a staircase, another fire exit, but there’re voices down there too. Up then, second floor, quieter here, don’t trip over the bodies, right, left, a drunken spider’s path, they’ve lost him, but will be searching, for revenge if nothing else. Voices somewhere ahead, not English, don’t stumble into them.
A room, looks like a radio studio, a body or two, broken equipment, a producer’s cubicle. Not in there, that’s the obvious place, out here, ninety-degree angle to it, behind that piece of equipment, whatever it is. From here, at the right angle, I can see a reflection of the doorway in the remains of the cubicle glass. Minutes go by, ten, twenty, thirty, have they given up? The sound of shooting and explosions is much more intermittent now; they must be running out of targets, their prey thinning out. No, there’re voices somewhere out there, searching slowly, fearful of ambush, little idea whether he’s even on this floor, they must be spread thin by now.
Another ten minutes or so passes, they’re getting closer, two of them nearby by the sound of it, I’m like a rat in a cul-de-sac here, perhaps I should have kept moving. The door swings open slowly, no one’s visible, but they must be there, one either side of the door probably, don’t risk firing unless you’re certain. Don’t show yourself, wait, patience, let them expose themselves, become the hunter.
A blurred motion in the glass shards, one’s in behind a recording station, the other’s barrel sweeping the room from the doorway, the one inside crouching, moving left towards the cubicle, assuming I’m there, the other one covering him from the hallway outside. He’s preparing a grenade, it’s pitched into the cubicle, the remaining glass blown out, the man’s springing forward to enter, he’s sprawling… Too predictable sunshine. That used four rounds, plenty left still, fire a burst either side of the doorway, a yelp, winged the other, but he’s firing back. Get ready for the grenade, another burst and dive for the cubicle, up and ready. But no follow up, the other one’s withdrawn, can hear him talking to someone on the radio. Must be covering the exit from down the corridor, I’m trapped. What now? No way out other than though the floor or ceiling, wait, the authorities will surely be here soon, they can’t allow this slaughter to continue.
Then what? Try to escape in the confusion?
Time passes, suddenly a huge earthquake followed by a crescendo of noise, dust falling, loose items shaken, lights going out, dark. Must be them, a tsunami of firing, rifles, machine guns, something heavier, further but mercifully smaller explosions.
Wait or move?
Safer to stay here but no chance of escape if I do, I’ll be taken if I survive and the soldiers will be in a killing mood, so probably not then. Move then, darkness helps, find some stairs, the enemy are going to have their hands too full to worry about me anyway. Lord, forgive me; it’s in Your Hands.
Edging to the doorway, still dark, the emergency lighting providing a bare minimum of eerie illumination.
Listening intently: is there someone there lying in wait for me?
Impossible to hear anything, given the rising noise of battle, seemingly closer now, building shaking, even some smoke filtering in. What do I do? Move or stay? I want to see Martha, Iltud, Narin, the others, my home again, not die here failing at the last. All those I couldn’t save, dying in front of me, lost to the only ones who ever bothered, polluted by it all. Don’t know what to do, so weary, nearly but not quite, not enough, falling short, just like me, always falling short.
Minutes pass, gunfire down the passage, an AK47 on automatic, but firing in another direction, no two of them, then something else, quieter, on semi-auto, more disciplined, much further away, it’s prolonged, no one’s going anywhere.
It’s broken the paralysis of indecision, looking out, two dim figures firing back up the passage, in their excitement they’ve forgotten me. Too bad, empty the whole clip into them from behind, they’re down, right down to Hell, feet racing forward, to run is suicide, detach the empty clip, hold out the rifle stock first, drop the other to the floor, the pistol’s in the pouch pocket, too late to move for that now, they’re here, all in black and masked, weapons and torches pointing at me, poising to fire.
“Don’t shoot, I’m with you.”
“Freeze, turn around, NOW, against the wall.”
There are four of them at least, two race past to the right searching room by room, the rear one has checked the two he shot, joins the one covering him. Educated voice, posh almost.
“Undercover, intelligence, followed them inside, shot those two for you, at least four more.”
“So you say.”
This one’s intelligent, examining me, finds the pistol, the cross around my neck, his eyes widen behind the facemask.
“Was it you, silenced pistol, outside?”
“Yes, two there, pursued the others in, lost them, lost myself, got some civilians out, but I’ve been trapped here, thanks.”
“Ok, we’ll have to hand you in. Here’s the handgun if we run into any more of them, but do as you’re told, ok?”
“There’s an emergency stairwell some way ahead, on the west side of the building, should be a police evac team there to take you in.”
Following the others, he saw no chance to get away from these guys unless they’re ambushed. One turn, then another, they must be near; the team leader’s looking at a handheld map device. They stop, ceiling down, impassable, have to find another way, an internal staircase, another turn, then another, there it is, down they go, it’s intact, just a body at the bottom, onto the first floor, more turns and corridors of darkness, nearly there, make a dash for it here, no, after the handover, outside in the confusion, the smoke. Gunfire behind them, one of them goes down swearing, then quietly fading, shock sweeping him away in its floodtide. The others return fire, spreading out.
“The exit’s that way, they should be out there, go, now!”
One hurls a grenade down the passage, the others volleying fire in pursuit to cover his dash for the stairwell, around a corner, it’s there. Where to now? Abscond via another way out? No, the cordon will be too tight now, if the soldiers were convinced, maybe the cops would be too, can always try to slip away when through the police ring. Who knows, there may be no one there to meet me anyway, ride your luck, someone upstairs has been looking out for me so far today. Wait here until the shooting dies away then go.
Some minutes later, Sam opens the door so very carefully, no one there, so step through.

The Report Global and China Injection Molding Machine Industry Report, 2014-2016 provides information on pricing, market analysis, shares, forecast, and company profiles for key industry participants. - MarketResearchReports.biz
Albany, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/05/2015 -- Injection molding machine is the most crucial plastic processing machinery, accounting for 60%-85% in developed countries, and it finds application mainly in fields like automobile, household appliances, food & beverage packaging, plastic building materials, and electronic communications.
China injection molding machine industry has grown bigger and stronger along with rapid development of downstream sectors, becoming the world's largest producer and consumer of injection molding machine. In 2010, China's injection molding machine sales exceeded RMB20 billion for the first time and approximated RMB25.5 billion in 2013, the best since financial crisis, and it is expected to reach RMB30 billion or so in 2016.
View Full Report at http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis/245268
At present, nearly 30% of China-made injection molding machines are exported. Customs data show that, China exported 25,082 injection molding machines in 2014, a year-on-year rise of 9.2%, generating export value of USD1.01 billion, up 9.1% from a year earlier.

text: Like many daughters out there Stutee Ghosh and Barkha Dutt too lost a parent to the on-going pandemic. How do they come face to face with this feeling of being orphaned? How do they deal with this gaping hole left in their lives by their beloved fathers? How do they find the purpose to carry on? Come, listen in.


After launching successful downloadable expansions for Wii U titles such as Mario Kart 8, Hyrule Warriors, and of course Super Smash Bros., it's only natural that the company would keep the DLC train rolling with additional content for the upcoming The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Launching for both the Wii U and Switch versions of the game, the $20 Expansion Pass adds three new bundles of content throughout 2017. You even get Link's iconic Nintendo Switch shirt! Here's some of the press release:
Starting when the game launches on March 3, players will be able to purchase an Expansion Pass for $19.99, granting access to two new sets of downloadable content for the game when they become available later this year. Immediately upon pre-purchase or purchase of the Expansion Pass, three new treasure chests will appear in the game’s Great Plateau area. One of these treasure chests will contain a shirt with a Nintendo Switch logo that Link can wear during his adventure, exclusive to the Expansion Pass. The other two will deliver useful items. The first content pack is scheduled to launch this summer, and will include the addition of a Cave of Trials challenge, a new hard mode and a new feature for the in-game map. The second content pack will launch in Holiday 2017, and adds new challenges that will let players enjoy a new dungeon and a new original story. The Expansion Pass will be available for both the Nintendo Switch and Wii U versions of the game and are identical. Content packs cannot be purchased individually.
If you've missed out on Nintendo's take on the season pass in the past few years and are immediately assuming that this is a DLC cash grab like other publishers have been known to offer, I think based on past experience you can relax. Nintendo took its time getting into the season pass game and, once it did, made a point to offer a lot of value for the extra money. I've purchased past passes for a variety of Wii U games and have never been disappointed. Sure, offering a Switch logo shirt for Link at launch is a little goofy, but I trust the company to deliver on its stated intentions.

September is Whole Grains Month, and to celebrate let’s remind ourselves about the benefits and basics of whole grains.
September is Whole Grains Month, and to celebrate let’s remind ourselves about the benefits and basics of whole grains. Whole grains, or foods made from them, contain all of the essential parts and naturally occurring nutrients of the entire grain seed. This means that 100% of the original kernel, all of the bran, germ, and endosperm, is present. Whole grains provide fiber, vitamin E, and minerals such as iron, zinc, and magnesium. The bran and germ contain 25 percent of the protein in whole grains and the majority of the nutrients. When highly processed, these valuable nutrients and proteins are lost - not to mention healthful fiber.
Dietary guidelines suggest eating at least three servings of whole grains every day. Research has shown that three daily servings (about ½ cup each) can reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and digestive system cancers.
A recent Harvard meta analysis found that those who ate three daily servings (or more) of whole grains cut their risk of dying by nearly 20 percent compared with those who ate little or no whole grains.
Remind shoppers to choose whole over other processed grains. So, what grains are considered whole? Whole or cracked wheat, corn, cornmeal, popcorn, brown and colored rice, oatmeal and whole oats, barley, quinoa, sorghum, spelt and whole rye. Other examples are, grains and flours made from the following: amaranth, buckwheat, bulgur, emmer, farro, grano (lightly pearled wheat), millet, triticale, wheat berries and wild rice.
In terms of products with the Whole Grains Stamp, here’s how to help guide shoppers as to what’s inside. There are two different varieties of the Stamp:
100% Stamp: all its grain ingredients are whole grains. There is a minimum requirement of 16 grams (a full serving) of whole grain per labeled serving.
Basic Stamp: contains at least 8 grams (a half serving) of whole grain, but may also contain some refined grain. Even if a product contains large amounts of whole grain (ex 25 grams), it will use the Basic Stamp if it also contains extra bran, germ, or refined flour.
Here are some other ways to get shoppers to eat more whole grains. Suggest adding cooked grains to soups, salads and casseroles. A half-cup of bulgur, wild rice, brown rice or quinoa will give you six to eight grams of fiber. For home bakers, substitute half of the white flour with whole-wheat flour in regular recipes for cookies, muffins, and cakes

Phottix Cleon II Remote
- Category: Phottix Camera Remote and Timer
The PHOTTIX CLEON II is a hybrid (wired and wireless) shutter release for cameras.
The package consists of a small remote control (transmitter), receiver and either one of the optional cables depending on the model of camera to be controlled. When used wirelessly, the transmitter and receiver can be pared by any one of 16,000,000 channels (Smart Code) within the working distance of 100 meters (320ft). The CLEON II supports the following functions: single shot mode, 2 seconds delay, continuous, as well as bulb mode for long exposures.
The CLEON II can be used with a wide variety of cameras – just plug in a suitable cable to the receiver. Go to Phottix Cable Connector Types for a list of available connecting cables. The transmitter has a single button to activate the camera’s shutter, a mode switch and a retractable antenna. The receiver can be attached to the hot shoe of the camera (facing forwards or backwards), or simply be placed alongside. Like the transmitter, the receiver has a shutter release button. The remote’s shutter release button functions similarly to that of the camera’s: a half press initiates autofocus on the camera and a complete press of the button takes a snap.
The function selector on the transmitter allows selecting between three different modes:
- S/B - single exposures or bulb mode
- 2S - single exposures with a 2 second delay
- Continuous - multiple exposures
Moving the mode switch on the receiver to “Hold” allows it to be used for bulb-mode (long exposures) without having to hold the shutter button pressed all the time. When using the receiver as a wired remote, there is no need to power it on.
Due to similar frequencies that Phottix Tetra and Aster Flash Triggers, and Phottix Cleon I/II Wireless Remotes use, they may not work together properly. Consider a Phottix Plato or Strato if you require a wireless shutter release for use with your Phottix Tetra or Aster.

Quick Look: All Screen Receiver is the companion channel to the All Screen Android app that allows users the ability to cast personal media - music, photos, and videos - from their Android phone or tablet to their Roku.
All screen is extremely easy to set up and get started with. Just launch the app on your Android device and the All Screen Receiver on your Roku - keep in mind that both must be operating on the same home network. The app will automatically find and list all Roku devices on your network. Select the one you want to cast to, select the media you want to cast, and that's it.
The app will find your mobile device's photo and video gallery, any media servers on the network, and cloud drives like Dropbox and Google Drive. Photos will display for 10 seconds with default settings, but you can change that to 30, 60, 90, or 120 seconds. Some work remains to be done with photos, though. I couldn't find any way to cast photos in slideshow fashion; after a photo displays for the allotted time, the app jumps back to the gallery and the Roku displays the All Screen Receiver splash screen. You have to continually select individual photos from your photo gallery.
Casting music also needs a bit of work. The app lets you browse by song, album, artist, and playlist, and you can cast a single song or an entire album. Fast-forward to the next song in an album, though, and the Roku channel stays stuck on what you just fast-forwarded through. The channel also fails to load the album art and the artist and album information - only the song title is displayed.
Despite the drawbacks, All Screen and the companion All Screen Receiver are a good entry-level package for casting personal media to your Roku - and it's free!
All Screen also works with a number of other streaming devices, including Chromecast,Fire TV and Fire Stick, Apple TV, Kodi/XBMC, Xbox, and many smart TVs.

Farmers’ markets are the traditional means, worldwide, by which farmers bring produce from their farms to their city cousins. Much of the developed world departed from that tradition years ago with the development of middlemen and retail supermarkets, but in the United States, there has been a resurgence in farmers’ markets over the last two decades.
In 2013, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, there were 8,144 farmers’ markets in the United States, up 3.6 percent from 2012. That is actually the smallest year-to-year increase in the last five years. Since 1994, when USDA began publishing its National Farmers Market Directory, the number has more than tripled.
Not surprisingly, fruit growers in the eastern United Stateslocated an hour or two from huge cities like Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Philadelphia, and New York Cityhave leapt at the opportunity. Not only do the big cities have farmers’ markets, their suburbs and the affluent folks living there have them, too. Usually they are once-a-week affairs, having no permanent infrastructurejust a bunch of vendors in a parking lot.
At Kuhn Orchards, in Cashtown in Pennsylvania’s Adams County, the Kuhn family attends nine farmers’ markets each week and also makes deliveries to people who subscribe to their Community Supported Agriculture, or CSA. A CSA is a fruit and vegetable subscription service where people pay in advance for weekly produce deliveriesa box a week of whatever’s ripe and whatever the farmer managed to grow.
“We try to grow the highest quality fruit we can,” said Sidney Kuhn, who recently bought Kuhn Orchards from her parents. Father Dave is now an advisor to owner and general manager Sidney. Last year, she married Anthony Herring, who joined the production team on the 100-acre fruit and vegetable farm.
They have about 30 acres of apples, 60 of stone fruits, and 10 of “everything else,” according to Sidney.
During an International Fruit Tree Association tour to their farm in July, Sidney prepared show-and-tell “props” to illustrate the keys to producing quality fruit. These included:
Gloves. “We like to keep our guys soft-handed,” Sidney said. Bruised fruit is a no-no, and Golden Delicious showing fingerprints won’t sell.
Stem cutters. “We use special cutters to remove stems after picking Fuji and Honeycrisp,” she said. The nippers are curved so they can reach into the well without poking the fruit.
A size ring. Apples are spot-picked as many as five times for color, and the size has to be 2-13/16 inches or larger.
Lined picking bags. Pickers use two hands and wear the picking bag in front of them, not to the side. “Keep an eye on the ropes,” Sidney said. Pickers are told to keep the bottom of the bag flat and not overfill it, meaning the ties at the bag bottom should not be strained. Pickers pick only one side of a tree at a time and don’t climb over the trellis wires.
Small bins. The Kuhns use a 12-bushel bin made especially for them that is smaller than standard, contains fewer layers of fruit, and fits better in their box trucks. They have special bin trailers that fit the smaller boxes.
Bubble wrap, used to line the bottoms of the bins.
The whole idea is to load those box trucks each day with the kind of fruit that will sell out. They don’t want to bring home poorly colored or damaged fruit, even though they can sell it for processing.
For peaches, they use half-bushel crates. Pickers pack fruit directly into them, red side up, and no cull fruit goes into them.
Back in the 1990s, the Kuhns grew 100 acres of apples for processing, Dave said. Financially, they were doing poorly and had to sell land to stay in business. “We actually took out the apples to stay in business,” he said.
When Sidney decided to come back to the farm, it was the lure of retail that drew her, and she is very oriented to her customers. “We don’t need a focus group to tell us what consumers like,” Dave said.
Some customers want old varieties, but most really like the new varieties. CrimsonCrisp, from the cooperative PRI apple breeding program, is one new one that’s selling well. “It sells at Honeycrisp prices, the only one we have that does that,” Sidney said. Pink Pearl is a red-fleshed variety that’s selling well, too. •


Shell has launched its new range of Environmentally Acceptable Lubricants (EALs), including Shell Naturelle S4 Stern Tube Fluid 100. The Shell Naturelle range of products enables ships entering US waters to comply with the revised 2013 Vessel General Permit (VGP).
Shell Naturelle S4 Stern Tube Fluid 100 is made with fully saturated ester base oil, which offers the best resistance to hydrolysis (breakdown by water) and oxidation (oil ageing). It is also a non-emulsifying fluid, which allows ship operators to easily drain any water from the stern tube system, preventing hydrolysis and biodegradation of the oil within the equipment.
What sets Shell Naturelle S4 Stern Tube Fluid 100 apart from the competition is the wide range of approvals it has received from stern tube original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), like Aegir-Marine, Blohm & Voss (SKF), Kemel and Wärtsillä Propulsion.
In addition, Shell has also launched its VGP-compliant range of gear oils, hydraulic oils, wire rope lubricant and greases, almost all of which has received EU Eco Label certification and a host of approvals from top original equipment OEMs.
“We are delighted to introduce our new Shell Naturelle range of EALs and give our customers the peace of mind that they can comply with these regulations when they enter US waters. We have also taken the choice to use the best available technology to better protect our customers’ equipment, ” said Jan Toschka, General Manager of Shell Marine Products.
• Shell’s Naturelle range of VGP-compliant products is available in major ports across Shell’s global network.
• The 2013 revised VGP impacts all commercial vessels longer than 79 feet and requires the use of EALs for all applications with a possible oil-to-sea interface unless technically infeasible.
• Affected applications include stern tubes, rudder bearings, controllable pitch propellers, stabilisers, thrusters, wire ropes and cables.
• The intent of this new requirement is to reduce the environmental impact of lubricant discharges on the aquatic ecosystem by increasing the use of environmentally acceptable lubricants for vessels operating in waters of the United States.
• The areas covered by the VGP includes all waters within three nautical miles of US coastlines, including Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, the Virgin Islands, the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands and the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands; and in the Great Lakes.
• Shell Naturelle is a range of lubricants that have been specially developed to be environmentally considerate, used in environmentally sensitive areas such as inland waterways, flood defences, forests, ski slopes and mining sites. Typically, these are found in industry sectors such as mining, construction (tunnelling), pulp & paper (forestry), railways, agriculture and marine.

This isn’t a gameplay discussion by the way, it’s a lore(???) discussion.
In the TF2 lore, the Engineer is supposed to be a genius, having eleven hard science PhDs. He also managed to build these wondrous buildings that helps his team out a lot. However, there is one thing that really annoys me about the design of the Level 3 Sentry.
We all know that the Level 3 Sentry is capable of shooting bullets and rockets. Bullets are hitscan in games and almost hitscan-like in real life. Rockets, however, are projectiles with travel time. Thus, aiming and firing rockets require a lot more leading and prediction than bullets.
So why, Mr. Dell Conagher, is your Sentry’s rocket launcher designed like this?
The way these hinge joints are connected means that the rockets can’t track and aim at people separately! The rocket launchers can only tilt up and down relative to the Sentry’s main body and not left and right. This means that the rocket launcher can’t fully track targets separately from the rest of the Sentry. Given that you need to lead shots differently for rockets and bullets, this just means that your rockets are not going to directly hit anyone that isn’t standing still or running straight at the Sentry if they are far enough.
In fact, if you observe the Sentry in-game, it doesn’t have separate tracking for the miniguns and the rocket launchers. There is only one targeting sensor on this thing, that is the laser-pointer thingy mounted on one of the miniguns.
And what annoys me the most is that the solution to this is extremely simple. So simple, in fact, it’s literally a part of the Level 3 Sentry!
Just install an identical swivel joint to the one here to the base of the rocket launcher and the problem will literally be resolved. Oh, and maybe another targeting sensor.
So why in the world does Engineer not do that?
It definitely isn’t because the swivel joint will add too much to the Sentry’s size. By the looks of it, it will add at most one and a half inches to the Sentry’s height. Besides, just look at the size difference between the Level 3 Sentry and the toolbox that holds it. I am pretty sure adding this one extra joint will not make it any harder to fit inside.
The second reason, then, will be that the rockets travel so fast that tracking and leading isn’t that important. However, that is definitely not the case, since the rockets have the same speed as Soldier’s Rocket Launcher’s rockets. Everyone that plays Soldier for more than an hour will know how important leading your shots is when using the rocket launcher.
The third reason will be that the Engineer is just plain incompetent. Looking at the Loose Canon comic and the Engineer update page, there is a good chance that all three buildings, which we thought were products of Dell Conagher’s ingenuity, were simply inherited from his grandfather, Radigan Conagher.
While there is no proof that Radigan actually built these devices, it is a rather real possibility. It is highly likely that Dell only copied Radigan’s designs and claimed it as his own, thus raising doubts about how good he actually is. It will certainly explain why Engineer didn’t add the extra joint: he didn’t know how.
That is, until we got proof that Engineer is an actual genius.
We knew that Radigan Conagher built the first Life Extender Machine for Blutarch and Redmond. The machine is large, almost the size of a small room, and prone to failure, as seen in the Loose Canon comic. The Engineer, after having access to his grandfather’s blueprints, improved upon the design to be much smaller and presumably more reliable. That was seen in the Blood Brothers comic.
Radigan Conagher is known to have made a third Life Extender Machine after building one each for Blutarch and Redmond. While there is no concrete proof of it, there is a good chance that it is the one worn by Gray Man. Unlike the machines used by his brothers, his is smaller, sleeker, and ran on Australium (Blutarch’s and Redmond’s machines show no signs of running on them, nor do they seem to know what Australium is). Using that as the benchmark, as the peak of Radigan’s capability, Dell’s work seemed primitive in comparison. That machine is also seen in Blood Brothers. It was used by Gray Mann up until it was torn out from his body.
However, in Blood in the Water, we saw Dell Conagher’s latest work on the Life Extender Machine. An extremely small and efficient machine, it completely blew Gray Mann’s machine out of the water. Dell Conagher may not have Radigan’s inventiveness, but he is definitely an excellent engineer. Thus, Engineer not fixing this flaw is definitely not out of incompetence.
After all these, we have still yet to find the true reason why this isn’t fixed. My only remaining possible reason is that Dell Conagher simply doesn’t care. Just like me right now and most people reading at this point.

Hard to believe but it’s been almost ten years since Jane Siberry last graced our stage (December 2009), so we’re thrilled to announce that we are adding a second show at The Carleton on Monday, May 20th! Show time is 8 PM and tickets are $35. If you missed the boat on the first show, don’t miss this rare opportunity to see a true artist in a setting as intimate as ours.
Iconic and enigmatic, Jane Siberry is one of music’s most unique and gifted singer-songwriters. Blessed with a sincere integrity and emotional depth, she has released 14 studio albums, including her well-loved signature song Calling All Angels. Jane’s songs have been covered by numerous artists, including k.d. lang with her stunning renditions of Love is Everything and the 23rd Psalm-inspired The Valley.
She is recognized as a forward-thinking artist, using her creativity both in song and in how she operates in the music business. She was one of the first to set up ‘self-determined transactions’ (pwyw). She continues to explore ways to live healthily as an artist creating an online style-store, webinars, ‘Janetakes’ (feedback for artists) and passive income streams in order to ‘keep the joy up’ and to remain aware that ‘it is a privilege to be a musician’.
Jane is on tour for 7 months from November 2018 until June 2019 in her home country Canada, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, and the USA performing with equal enthusiasm at Carnegie Hall and living rooms around the world.

Louis CK Not Laughing About Sexual Accusations
10 November 2017, 01:08 | Ruben Stone
Comedian Louis CK accused of sexual misconduct by five women
In the first of several allegations against the Louie star, comedians Dana Min Goodman and Julia Wolovtold the newspaper that C.K. allegedly invited them back to his hotel room following their appearance at a comedy festival in Colorado in 2002. Courteney Cox and David Arquette confirmed they were notified of one alleged incident - an actress on a show they were producing claimed C.K. asked if he could masturbate in front of her. "What happened to Rebecca on that set was very bad", Cox wrote of the incident in an email, expressing her reaction of "outrage and shock".
"He proceeded to take all of his clothes off, and get completely naked, and started masturbating", Goodman said.
Last year, on the topic of misconduct rumours, he told Vulture: "I don't care about that". She described an alleged encounter that took place in the late '90s while she was working in production at "The Chris Rock Show".
Vikings activate QB Teddy Bridgewater, move Sam Bradford to IR Meanwhile, coach Mike Zimmer announced Case Keenum will make his seventh start of the season for the game at Washington on Sunday. Bridgewater, who turns 25 on Friday, has been leading the scout team offense since returning to practice three weeks ago.
A spokesman for Louis C.K. didn't return immediate messages for comment. "Shameless" star William H. Macy will be replacing him.
The women's allegations called into question whether C.K.'s comedic schtick - he's known for his candor about his sexual hang-ups and his frequent talk about masturbation in his act - has served as a longtime cover for real misconduct.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Notaro said she wanted to make clear in the episode that "you can be assaulted without even being touched". "He knew it was going to make him look like a good guy, supporting a woman", she said, adding that she learned of his reputation only after selling One Mississippi to Amazon. That Oct. 5 story, and another on Weinstein in The New Yorker a week later, set off a cascade of allegations of sexual misdeeds against Weinstein, Kevin Spacey and other Hollywood figures that continues.

“Can you give it to me ?” He said.
“For free?” She asked.
“Yes, of course,” He said.
“No, I’ll not.” She said.
I was listening to the conversation between two people, one my artist friend who is a skilled painter and another my friend who liked her painting. He asked her to give it for free.
Her no and later on the reason behind her no made me think on one different aspect of artists we as a society miss.
Artists paint, draw, sing, write, dance, or may take other artistic activities. Many times we fail to value their art.
I have seen many artists showing their marvelous arts for free to the world.
I think, as we pay professionals for their skills, we must also pay artists for their art skills. We must respect artists for their creations.
This value we give for art encourages artists to more creations. Allows them to use their creativity at most.
I am convinced about one famous dialogue from one of my favorite movies, “The Dark Knight”;
If you’re good at something, never do it for free.
Art is the soul of society. It brings everyone together and satisfies everyone in its form. Art influences society, allows cultures to communicate, and become a vehicle for change in society.
Artists are responsible for showing the real world to us and expressing the beauty of this world.
Therefore, I urge everyone to respect artists and value their art.
Admire the excellence of people and encourage them to use their excellence for the betterment of society.

This year I decided to do the Goodreads reading challenge and challenged myself to read over 100 books at first. Then I thought, “you are being overzealous here.” There was no way I was going to be able to do that; between work, family and finishing my masters I had to cut back.
I decided that 75 books was more realistic. I am happy to say that I did it and a little more. Reading brings such great escape for me. To be able to dive into unknown worlds and explore. From fantasy to smutty romance I love it all.
Side note: I also finished my masters.
A few of the books that I Enjoyed:
A few of the books that I could have passed on:
I was really disappointed with Cheater; I love Rachel Van Dyken’s Eagle Elite Series, but I couldn’t get into this book. I also didn’t like books that were not full books. The stories are so rushed and end ups being boring and a waste of time.
To see more of the books that I have read and reviewed check out My 2017 Year in Books on my Goodreads page: https://www.goodreads.com/user/year_in_books/2017/62484395
With 2018 upon us, how many books should I challenge to read in the upcoming year?

Review: Nashville In Concert keepin 'er country at Belfast's SSE Arena
The stars of the hit series Nashville closed the UK and Ireland leg of their world tour at the SSE Arena in Belfast on Tuesday night.
Clare Bowen (Scarlett O'Connor), Charles Esten (Deacon Claybourne), Chris Carmack (Will Lexington), Jonathan Jackson (Avery Barkley), and Sam Palladio (Gunnar Scott) took to the stage for almost three hours of hits from the show plus their own original material.
Charles Esten was given the task of performing first - singing Buckle Up as a cold open for the crowd.
But if the singer was worried about performing for an audience not yet warmed up he shouldn't have been because it was clear this crowd was ready for a country music party.
"Hello Belfast, I think there's definitely some cowgirls here tonight - and it looks like you came here for a good time!" Chris Carmack said as he arrived on stage to perform soon after.
The singer performed What If I Was Willing and Being Alone, with Carmack's sound clearly the most traditional of the ensemble as he showcased his musical talents throughout the night both on the guitar and saxophone.
Next up was Jonathan Jackson who arrived to huge cheers and left to delighted screams as he performed Keep Asking Why and a cover of the U2 and Bob Dylan song Love Rescue Me.
With a more rock influenced sound amid the country music, Jackson was a stand out performer on the night with truly unbelievable vocals carrying through the vast space of the SSE Arena.
Next up was Sam Palladio, who surprised the audience with a new hair colour and an English accent as many are often surprised to find he doesn't possess the Texan drawl of his character Gunna
Palladio was only available to perform at a selection of the concert dates during this leg of the tour and the Belfast crowd were in for a treat as he sang I Will Fall and an original track Hello Heartbreak Blues.
"This is our last night of doing this, and we've had an amazing journey," he told the crowd. "Belfast you are just amazing."
Palladio then introduced his fellow cast member Claire Bowen who arrived on stage in her trademark flowing dress and bare feet.
The pair delighted the crowd by performing Fade Into Me, before welcoming Jackson back to perform Borrow My Heart.
Bowen then had her moment to shine as she sang her own song Little By Little which she described as a "love letter to the world".
"The world needs one of those right now," she continued. "One person cannot save the world alone but if we stick together we can make little corners of it glow with love and compassion. Love will always conquer fear."
Hits from the show were dished out in rotation throughout the night, with the crowd delighting when duets or group performances were brought to life.
Each of the stars brought their own unique sound to the stage and were very much well received by the crowd, but it was Jackson's stunning cover of Unchained Melody that had the audience mesmerized and on their feet to give the bewildered star a standing ovation.
The singer dedicated the performance to his wife of 15 years as they celebrated their anniversary and seemed genuinely moved that the crowd were in awe of his talents.
"How am I supposed to follow that?" Palladio quite rightly asked as he arrived back on stage to perform the next track. "He does this this to me every night!"
As he opened the show Esten was given the task of closing it, so he performed the crowd favourite He Ain't Me before the entire ensemble returned to perform their encore.
A cover of David Bowie's Heroes, One More Song, and A Life That's Good were the final three songs of the evening and the Belfast audience were left suitably entertained by the Nashville sound.

We were in Hawaii two weeks this summer as a big family of 12 to celebrate my dad's birthday. We stayed at vacation rentals and did a lot of our own cooking, but here are some of the places we ate at and enjoyed. Many of them come thanks to previous board recommendations, so thanks!
In Honolulu: Hau Tree Lanai. There is no better place, in my opinion, to spend your first morning in Hawaii than here under the tree, on the beach, eating papaya and coconut-macadamia French toast. It's a bit spendy but we loved it.
Marukame Udon--soothing to the palate and to the budget. Long line, but it moved fast. The curry udon was a favorite.
Rai Rai Ramen--can you tell we like Japanese noodles? The sesame noodles are definitely the way to go. The gyoza are not the best I've ever had, but quite good.
Pineapple Room at Macy's: We sat at the counter and had an excellent lunch. I got a soup, salad, and tart thing that was exactly what I wanted. My husband's ahi burger was also excellent, and the wasabi potato salad is...quite something.
In Kauai: We stayed in my dad's timeshare near Kapa'a, so most of the restaurants we visited were near there.
Hukilau Lanai, just outside Kapa'a: When my dad recommended the "early bird special" at his timeshare, I was skeptical. But this turned out to be a 5-course tasting menu with paired wines ($40), which went from good to spectacular. The service was somewhat spotty for such an upscale place, unfortunately.
Sushi Bushido in Kapa'a: I'm no sushi expert, but we all enjoyed our meal there, from the California roll conservatives to the more daring, who ordered "chef's choice nigari" . The cocktails were nasty, though. And the live music was surprisingly good.
Hanalei Pizza: We had just had a long and very wet hike along the Na Pali coast, so anything hot would have been welcome, but this was quite good pizza with an excellent, crisp crust. They bring the pizza to you on the pizza stone, which is fun.
Hanalei Bakery? (It's in the same shopping center as the pizza place): We picked up a coconut cream pie there to eat later. It was really good: not too sweet and very coconutty, with a crust that stayed crisp even the next day.
Oahu North Shore: We stayed in Laie, where all the stores are closed on Sunday and the Foodland doesn't sell alcoholic beverages.
We really enjoyed the Haleiwa Farmer's Market, where we dropped many a dollar on fresh produce and fish. Another day we checked out the "farmer's market" on the BYU campus in Laie, where we scored some excellent and really inexpensive kaku (I think that's barracuda) and some nice produce. Most of the produce doesn't seem to be local there, but the prices are pretty good.
Giovanni's: We had to go. I thought it was good but not *that* good. The lemon butter sauce had an artificial taste, but the garlic shrimp was really good. While waiting in line, we sampled the wares of the smoothie stand and the "Ono-Yo" frozen yogurt truck, and they both had delicious if pricey treats.
Jameson's By the Sea: we had dinner there at sunset: we were seated inside but right near a large picture window, so the view was beautiful. Excellent cocktails, beautiful fish (and excellent crab-stuffed mushrooms!), very good service. This was a pretty big splurge, but everyone had a really nice time.
Ray's Kiawe Broiled Chicken: My husband and I happened to be in Haleiwa shopping and got hungry--the chicken smelled good and turned out to taste really good as well. The pineapple cole slaw also hit the spot.
We never went to Matsumoto's, we didn't get malasadas, and we never got a real plate lunch. Guess we'll have to come back sometime. Hope this list is helpful.

Ukraine asks international courts to rule against Russia for its 'brutal invasion,' with one quick success
The Monument of Independence in Kyiv, Ukraine. Image from Andreas Wolochow / Shutterstock.com.
Updated: The European Court of Human Rights has quickly issued an interim decision against Russia, while another international court is also considering action after Ukraine complained of a "full-scale, brutal invasion."
The European Court of Human Rights issued interim measures Tuesday, just one day after Ukraine sought relief. The court told Russia to refrain from military attacks against civilians and civilian buildings, including residences, emergency vehicles, schools and hospitals, according to a press release (available here) and Courthouse News Service.
Ukraine had alleged “massive human rights violations being committed by the Russian troops” in its case before the European Court of Human Rights.
The court can take interim measures regarding any state party to the European Convention on Human Rights when there is an imminent risk of irreparable harm. Ukraine and Russia are both parties to the treaty, according to Human Rights Watch.
By seeking provisional measures, Ukraine was able to get a quick hearing. It has been set for March 7 and 8, according to an announcement Tuesday. It can take years for a case to reach the trial stage, on the other hand.
In the case before the International Court of Justice, Ukraine contends Russia made “a nonsensical and utterly unsupported claim” of Ukrainian genocide in its eastern regions of Luhansk and Donetsk to justify its invasion. Ukraine wants the court to resolve disagreements over the alleged acts of genocide and Russia’s justification for military action.
Ukraine contends the UN court has jurisdiction to resolve a dispute over the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, which has been signed by both Ukraine and Russia.
“Russia has turned the Genocide Convention on its head—making a false claim of genocide as a basis for actions on its part that constitute grave violations of the human rights of millions of people across Ukraine,” says Ukraine’s application instituting proceedings.
“Russia’s lie is all the more offensive, and ironic, because it appears that it is Russia planning acts of genocide in Ukraine. Russia is intentionally killing and inflicting serious injury on members of the Ukrainian nationality—the actus reus of genocide under Article II of the Convention.”
According to AP, orders of the International Court of Justice “are legally binding, but not always adhered to.”
Ukraine’s argument could be enough to persuade the court to issue provisional measures, according to the EJIL: Talk! blog. “Not that Russia is likely to comply,” the blog says. “But still—rhetorically and symbolically there is some power to this.”
The Lithuanian government, meanwhile, says it will ask prosecutors with the International Criminal Court to investigate war crimes in Ukraine, Reuters reports in a separate story. Russia and Ukraine are not members of the ICC, but Ukraine has accepted the court’s jurisdiction, according to a post by Human Rights Watch.
In a statement ICC prosecutor Karim A.A. Khan said his office has the authority to investigate any act of genocide, crime against humanity or war crime committed in Ukraine. His office does not have jurisdiction, however, to investigate crimes of aggression under 2018 amendments to the Rome Statute, the treaty that established the International Criminal Court. That’s because neither Ukraine nor Russia are parties to the treaty.
ABA President Reginald Turner issued a statement Wednesday saying the association joins the world community in condemning the actions of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“The invasion violates the United Nations Charter on the principles of national sovereignty, rule of law, due process and universal human rights,” Turner said. “The response from nations and institutions that remain committed to the principles of international legal order has been encouraging as they provide economic, military and diplomatic support for Ukraine and exert financial pressure on Russia and its leaders through legal sanctions. The spirit and resilience of the Ukrainian people have been inspiring despite their substantial suffering.”

Three weeks after being battered by baseball sized hail, the Federal Emergency Management Agency came to Fulton County to take claims from residents.
FEMA sent a Mobile Disaster Recovery Center to Salem April 26 to serve homeowners, renters and business owners affected by the severe storms that struck Fulton County April 1.
Fulton County Emergency Coordinator Albert Roork said. the FEMA agents were kept busy from the time they arrived at approximately 8 a.m. until after 5 p.m. He said the agents commented that they probably should have stayed two days.
Roork said FEMA brought a motor home, which housed their equipment, and an armed guard. FEMA set up in the fire department's training room, he said.
Eighteen homeowners in Fulton called FEMA to report damage to their homes before the agency sent its agents to Salem, according to Brad Crane, public information officer for FEMA.
The center had staff made up of agents from FEMA, Arkansas Department of Emergency Management and the Small Business Administration.
Roork said FEMA doesn't usually cover people with insurance, but ADEM will help.
FEMA spokesman Win Henderson said, "You will be able to get reimbursement for the deductible on a primary residence," adding that rental and secondary homes will not be helped by the agency.
FEMA sent a damage assessment team to visit Fulton County in April to see the damage in the county firsthand immediately after the storm. The agency also performs flyovers of areas that are in consideration of disaster declarations.
Henderson said to be declared a federal disaster the area would have to be beyond the state's capacity to handle.
"It's based on people in the county and the per capita income and percentage insured," Henderson said. He said counties where most people are insured are not usually declared disasters.
Roork said that as long as he has worked for the county, he does not remember it ever being declared a federal disaster area.
"FEMA is here for the uninsured and the underinsured," Crane said. An example of underinsured would be an older couple who haven't kept up with increases in cost and replacement value, he said.
"What we have done so far is give $615,000 to the seven counties," Henderson said. He said $415,000 of it went to temporary housing and rentals while $191,000 went to needs and assistance which covers basic necessities such as clothing, appliances, healthcare and death benefits.
Roork said several residences in the Fulton County part of Cherokee Village were damaged as well. He said 911 coordinator David Keck was brought in to make sure everyone was from Fulton County.
Crane said 572 homeowners and businesses contacted FEMA, including 18 from Fulton County and three from Sharp County.
Crane said the low number of calls from Sharp County is probably because the homes were insured. "Usually with homeowner's insurance the insurance kicks in," Crane said. Most of the damage in Sharp County occurred in Cherokee Village.
"The need is not yet there for a presidential declaration," Crane said.
Southeastern Fulton County received the worst damage, with several buildings receiving damage to vinyl siding. Stile's Grocery, five miles east of Salem, received a massive amount of damage, including damage to air conditioning units, a scroll sign, roof and broken windows.
Other counties that were declared disasters in Arkansas are Randolph, Lawrence, Green, White, Cross and Conway counties. To register for federal and state disaster assistance for the April 1-3 storms one can call FEMA at 800-621-3362. An application is available online at www.fema.gov.
Gov. Mike Huckabee requested the area be declared a disaster April 6. President George Bush declared Fulton County a disaster April 12. Marmaduke, Ark., was especially hit hard, with most of the town being either destroyed or damaged by tornadoes.

After leveraging a direct-to-home business model to become of one of the fastest growing residential security companies in the country, NorthStar Home recently announced it is launching an Authorized Affiliate Funding Program as a way to bring independent alarm dealers into the fold and continue to grow the company’s nationwide footprint.
Founded in 2000 by Jason Christensen, NorthStar has embraced the emergence of smart home technology that has seen the alarm industry transition from the installation and monitoring of simple burglar and fire systems to providing whole home automation solutions. A combination of record sales in recent years combined with low customer attrition rates resulted in NorthStar being the top-ranked company in the 2016 SD&I Fast50 which annually recognizes the fastest growing security integrators and dealers in North America.
So, why would a company that has already achieved record success with a proven business model choose to also go to market through the traditional dealer sales channel? The answer, says Nick Perry, NorthStar’s new vice president of business development, is to give the company more of a permanent physical presence in the markets they serve – which he expects will help increase the company’s sales in those areas.
“For the last 17 years, NorthStar has had a direct-to-home business model, which has brought the company into just about every major market in the U.S,” says Perry, who previously oversaw dealer sales and development at Security Networks. “The dealer program is designed to complement that business in a number of ways. NorthStar’s traditional model is more of a summer (door-to-door) program where we don’t have a permanent presence in our markets. The dealers are going to act as an anchor or permanent presence in those markets and allow us to generate sales year round and also help us with service needs and other efficiencies in those markets.”
Perry says the cash infusion that NorthStar has received in recent years from its investors – namely Goldman Sachs and The Beekman Group – has enabled them to expand in a number of ways. “The dealer program was a natural fit for us to take advantage of an underserved market and have a scalable, more predictable sales channel that we felt like there was a big need for,” he says.

Spreadeagled across the mountaintop with its towers soaring boldly towards the heavens, the fort of Chittaurgarh is the crucible of Rajput history. Here, where defending one's honor was more important than death, events played themselves out with tragic intensity. In Chittaur one hears the silent footfalls of history, doomed and anguished, yet heroic and utterly romantic.
Even the stones seems to tell stories about the legendary beauty of Rani Padmini and the heroic feats of the Rajput maharanis; the collective anguish of a people committed to the practice of jauhar—when men donned saffron robes and marched out to their sure death, while women and children succumbed to mass self-immolation rather than be taken captive by the enemy. Chittaurgarh was the seat of this history so filled with pain and death, dignity and honor, love and romance, and to find myself physically there was an overwhelming experience.
Here was the splendid fort, with its broken walls and towers of fame.
Founded by Chittarangada Mori of the Mori dynasty in the 5th century AD, the fort was initially known as Chitrakut. One can see the stupa dedicated to him still standing at the turn of a road, with the oldest Mori tank at its side. From the 8th to the 16th century it was the Shishodia dynasty that reigned gloriously and nurtured 54 generations starting with Bapa Rawat and ending with Udai Singh. Enshrined within its 700 acres are fortifications, palaces, temples, tanks, granaries, bazaars and towers-800 years of toil which echo with tales of romance and valor, so characteristic of the Rajputs.
During the Mewar reign, the fort was ravaged thrice. Each time the people preferred death to dishonor, which is why there is an air of solemnity and respect surrounding the fort even today. The fort is a massive structure with many gateways built by various rulers who reigned at different times. Some of the main gates are Padal Pol, Bhairon Pol, Hanuman Pol and Ram Pol. Seven gates defend the approach to the fort on the west; one faces the east; and the last one defends the north. One marvels at how such immense structures came into being. How were rocks of mammoth proportions carted to the highest points of the hilltop? How was each slab of concrete measured, cut and placed to make such perfect towers? What was the inspiration behind the spectacular sculptures on every inch of the temple facades?
One significant structure that stands intact today is the palace of Rani Padmini, wife of Rana Ratan Singh, with a water pavilion, Jal Mahal. It was at this water pavilion that Allaudin Khilji saw a reflection of Rani Padmini in 1303. Although there were great painters and poets of the time who swooned over the queen's beauty, there is no record of her face. Silent devotion at Mirabai's Temple. Sent an offer to the palace to exchange Padmini for Ratan Singh. Rajput chivalry could not allow this to happen. With much cunning, warriors disguised as part of the rani's coterie, hid in palanquins and set out to save their king.
Today, one can still see the delicate Jal Mahal, used as Padmini's summer residence, rising from the middle of the lake. The complex around it was for her servants. Narrow corridors, open courtyards, concrete sieves on the windows... they are all there. What is missing is the sound of payals echoing under the high ceilings.
Within the ramparts is the palace of Rana Khumba, most of it in ruins now. However, it is believed that Rani Padmini and the other Rajput women committed jauhar in its underground cellars which are blocked today.
Rani Padmini wasn't the only lady of consequence in Chittaur. The city was also a refuge for the mystic princess and poetess, Mirabai who devoted her life to Lord Krishna. She lived here in seclusion. Her three-storeyed residence faces Rana Khumba's palace. The Khumba Shyam Temple , built by the Rana in Indo-Aryan style, is also associated with Mirabai. On the other hand, the temple where she worshipped Lord Krishna is built in the North Indian style on a raised plinth with a conical roof and an open colonnade around the beautiful sanctum. This is where she meditated, wrote her bhajans and sang them into.. the sky.
There is also an interesting building, said to be the residence of the commanderin-chief, which has a beautiful facade. What attracted me to the crumbling structure were the blue ceramic tiles that glinted from afar. From here one can get a good view of the victory tower, fragments of the boundary wall and the temples that lie scattered within.
HOW AND WHERE
Chittaurgarh is accessible by air, road and rail. Udaipur (90 kms away) is the nearest airport. By rail it is connected to Ajmer, Jaipur, Alwar, Delhi, Bundi, Kota, Udaipur and Ahme- dabad. By road some distances are: Delhi-583 kms, Mt. Abu - 297 kms, Jaipur - 325 kms, Udaipur -112 kms, Indore - 325 kms, Ajmer - 105 kms.
Chittaurgarh has both standard and budget hotels. Standard hotels include the RTDC Hotel Panna (tel 41238), Hotel Padmini (tel 41588) and Hotel Pratap Palace
In the budget category, there are hotels like Shalimar Alok and Anand Approved guides of the central archaeological department and Rajasthan tourism are available.
Tours are normally conducted for large parties via travel agents in Jaipur and Udaipur. However, once you reach Chittaurgarh, it is not difficult to arrange a guide. In fact even the auto rickshaws will take you from point to point within the fort for Rs ,150 to Rs 300 depending on the amount of time you wish to spend there.

It’s noon on Ninth Street near Fitzwater in South Philadelphia, and the store’s front door clicks open to admit the first customers of the day at Angelo’s Pizzeria, which opened last month. If it’s a typical day, owner Danny DiGiampietro will run out of dough, lock the door about 6 p.m., clean up, and go home.
All without a phone. He said he is afraid to get one now.
Too bad for the customer who has only a half-hour for lunch and has to order, as well as scarf down a pizza or a sandwich at the side rail in the unadorned shop.
Among pizza cognoscenti, Angelo’s was a thing even before it opened. “He does everything wrong: He doesn’t food-cost anything,” says Gregorio Fierro, a consultant well-known within the local pizza trade. “He just makes perfect food. If he had a money guy [as a partner], he would be making a fortune.”
“The money is not important," DiGiampietro says.
In a business in which many pizza makers ferment their dough for only a day before topping it, DiGiampietro will let his sit for up to 13 days. The result: light, airy pies, whether the square “grandma” and upside-down pizzas, or the round New York style. His imported flour, says Fierro, costs three times what many other shops pay.
He doesn’t have a freezer, either; the chicken cutlets for his sandwiches are breaded that day and fried to order.
DiGiampietro ran a pizzeria in Haddonfield for a few years before a former deli became available up the street from Sarcone’s Bakery, owned by his wife’s family. After more than a year of work, including a new sewer line, complete electrical and plumbing upgrades, and the installation of a tricked-out Polin multideck oven, Angelo’s soft-opened on Jan. 22.
Nine days in, DiGiampietro was home asleep in South Jersey when his alarm company called to report a fire. A floor beam beneath the oven had begun smoldering, and firefighters chopped into it to extinguish the smoke.
“We are a wood-fired pizza joint,” DiGiampietro joked on Instagram. But it was no laughing matter. Twelve days and thousands of dollars in repairs later, Angelo’s was back in business.
DiGiampietro, 46, grew up in South Philadelphia. As a kid at his father’s corner pizzeria at Fifth and Watkins Streets, he used to stretch dough over bare lightbulbs to create his own pizza. But he didn’t go pro until he was nearly 41.
As a young man, he had dreams of being a star chef. He moved to Miami to attend cooking school and landed a job with chef Allen Susser. After five years, he says, he got homesick.
While waiting to intern at Le Bec-Fin, he helped his friend Michael Abruzzi at his South Philadelphia bread bakeries, growing fascinated with the process.
One day, DiGiampietro packed up a van with bread and drove to the Mount Laurel home of a man who made a living as a bread jobber — a middleman who buys bread from bakeries and distributes it to restaurants and pizzerias.
Tony the bread guy was having a barbecue that day and the Abruzzi rolls in DiGiampietro’s truck were for sandwiches. DiGiampietro pulled up outside and gawked. “It was this giant house that looked like a mansion,” DiGiampietro says. “I asked him what his wife did for a living. He said she doesn’t work. I do this. His bread truck is parked outside. I called Michael and said, ‘I need a bread route.’ ”
Goodbye, fine dining.
For years, that’s what he did — getting up at 4 a.m. to run rolls from Abruzzi, Carangi, Cascia, and Sarcone’s to wholesale customers, such as DiNic’s and the early Primo shops. Good money, great gossip.
“Then I thought, if I make that much money delivering bread, imagine what I can do if I make it,” he says. He was dating (and later married) Lauren Ianarella, whose mother, Linda, is the daughter of Louis Sarcone Sr., whose son and grandson operate the bakery now.
After pumping Louis Sr. for info and reading books about bread in those pre-YouTube days, he bought a bread bakery at Eighth and Watkins Streets. “I’m working like 24 hours a day, and I didn’t make a dime,” DiGiampietro says. “I know how to make bread, just not make money making bread."
DiGiampietro was still running his bread route, yet losing money on the bakery. By then, Lauren had just delivered their daughter, Luciana, who is now almost 8.
While running bread in Haddonfield, he came upon a shuttered pizzeria on Haddon Avenue. "She said, ‘What do you know about pizza?’ I said, ‘It’s just bread with tomato sauce and cheese.’ I told her, ‘Give me one year,’ ” he said. He sold the bakery and with $5,000, in 2014 opened Angelo’s, naming it after their son, who was born 10 months after Luciana.
Angelo’s caught on. When the Ninth Street location — in the former Sarcone’s Deli — became available, he grabbed it. Thinking that he would open soon, he closed Haddonfield. That was premature. “I should have had a general contractor,” DiGiampietro said. “I tried to do it myself.”
He finally gave up the bread route at the end of the year as the opening grew closer.
Nowadays, he is sweating out a labor problem, which is cutting into the shop’s hours.
“I just don’t have the manpower to get ahead of prep,” he said this week. Many employees don’t seem to last. “One guy quit after a little more than a few hours,” DiGiampietro says.


Customer Success Story
The tractors at Fairview Evergreen Nursery in Pennsylvania were getting old and hard to service. Therefore, they needed a modern nursery sprayer for trees and bushes.
For instance, this Ford tractor was converted to a high clearance tractor. W.F. Larson (Plainview, Texas) did these costly conversions back in the 1970s. However, replacement parts were scarce and service was difficult. Fairview struggled to find modern equipment that would work well in their environment.
These John Deere 6500 sprayers are also outdated. That makes it hard get replacement parts and service.
The LEE Avenger, with a height clearance of over 7ft. glides over the crop of trees. The hydraulically adjustable legs match the row widths on the fly.
Fairview successfully implemented the LEE Avenger platform into their operations. They’re now looking for other uses for the Avenger in their nurseries such as pruning and digging.

Upon completion, a link will appear to access the found materials.
Captivity is for the birds, suggests a seminal study on the effects of dopamine levels and related stressors on wild songbirds conducted by Assistant Professor Christine Lattin of Louisiana State University.
Utilizing Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans for the first time ever on non-human subjects, Lattin measured dopamine levels as related to various stressors in house sparrows. The findings are revealing not just for birds, but for human stress science as well.
RELATED: FEMALE BIRDS GIVEN ANTIDEPRESSANTS SEE MALE BIRDS SING LESS AND PECK MORE AT THEM
Why this experiment was special
The type of biomedical imaging technology allowed by a PET scan offered a premier insight into how wildlife is currently coping with environmental changes, and thus how we can develop more effective strategies to protect it. The house sparrows were captured and monitored for hormone, body mass, and behavior changes over the course of a four-week captivity period.
From a conservation standpoint, this study illustrates a marked decline in songbird stress resilience over time and further emphasizes our collective human responsibility to take heed of our impact on the natural world.
The data from this study proves that protracted exposure to stressors inflicted by human captivity leads to a quick timeframe of loss and diminishment in this species.
What does this have to do with equivalent stress in humans?
The neurobiological effects of stress on the songbirds have near-perfect human equivalents that have been proven time and again in psychology, as well as multitudinous other branches of brain science. For instance, when dopamine receptors decreased in the test birds, they all lost body mass. A long-established corollary exists between human stress levels and significant weight gain or loss.
Nervous behaviors in the low-dopamine/high-captivity birds expressed in physiological ways, like feather ruffling. The human counterpart might be fingernail biting or hair twirling. Learn more about how stress impacts the human brain and body by watching the video below.
What's the take-away?
Two vital conclusions emerge from this songbird stress study that are of great importance to humanity.
The first, that we cannot expect Mother Nature to successfully habituate to our increased demands on space, has been supported by nearly every field of ecological study for years.
The second, that we can learn valuable information on how to protect our own individual holds on mental tranquility, however tenuous, by observing the effects of lowered dopamine receptors in the studied birds, teaches us yet again of the innate communion humanity shares with other creatures of the natural world.
Considering these two conclusions in tandem results in a veritable call-to-arms for conservation-minded thinkers to realize that the sliding scale of human-sponsored environmental damage is just that, and certainly flows both ways.
