Story | Jul 15, 2014 | 10:45 AM"We think Chicago has the greatest comedy scene in the country," said stand-up comic Stephanie Hasz at Township in Logan Square on Sunday night, "and we're going to be back the second weekend in July every year until we die." With those words, the Comedy Exposition of 2014, a standup festival locally produced by Matt Byrne, Goodrich Gevaart, Hasz, Katie McVay and Zach Peterson, came to a close. Over the course of three nights, 75 comics performed in two dozen shows spread out across three Chicago neighborhoods and containing all the thrills of a major festival. Every show I attended was packed, making the fest primed for a thrilling year two. Here's what you missed:

Parklife Weekender has thoroughly established itself as the musical Mecca of the north, following on from three sell-out years, 2013 is guaranteed to be the biggest and best offering yet.
Moving house is never easy but the people behind Manchester’s Parklife, are relocating from Platt Fields to the grander surroundings of Heaton Park. Bringing another weekend of mayhem to the masses there’s plenty to see and do over the two days. Taking place on 8th and 9th June 2013, Parklife signals the start of the UK’s summer of music. The festival is targeted towards dance heads but with artists including both David Rodigan and Hudson Mohawke curating their own stages, there are going to be sounds for almost every taste.
Fronting up the big names are Plan B who headlines the Saturday night and Example who brings the festival to a close on the Sunday. With acts such as Jurassic 5, The Macabees, AlunaGeorge, The Horrors and Toy bringing up the rear alongside DJ Fresh, Rita Ora and others such as TEED, Joey Bada$$ and Toddla T Sound, there’s plenty of choice for any party goer.
Our stand-out acts over the weekend include; Cyril Hahn, High Contrast, Jaguar Skills, Tiga and Erol Alkan although you should check out the full line-up here for a real feel for the festival.
A nice service offered by organisers is a shuttle bus leaving from the site to Manchester city centre and the after parties in the clubs, with tickets starting from around £4.50.
You should get your tickets early as it’s rumoured that weekend passes will be sold out by the end of the month, and in every previous year, tickets have sold out long before doors open.[box bg=”#FA6900″ color=”#FFFFFF”]

Learning how to play the ukulele can be rewarding. As a result, most of the people tend to learn how to play this instrument. If you want to learn the basics of playing ukulele in an effective manner, you should have a one for yourself. Unfortunately, most of the people screw up when purchasing their first ukulele. That’s because ukuleles that belong to a variety of models are available out there in the market. Therefore, what is the best ukulele for beginners have become a popular topic among people who are looking forward to invest their money on the very first ukulele.
What is the best ukulele for beginners?:
Figuring out the best ukulele for beginners out there in the market is not a hard thing to do as you imagine. You just need to pay attention towards few simple facts before you make the purchase. First of all, you will have to think about the perfect size of the ukulele that is available out there for you. The ukuleles out there in the market can be divided into four main sizes. They include baritone, tenor, concert and soprano in descending order.
If you are purchasing the very first ukulele, you need to go for a soprano. This type of ukulele has specifically been designed for the use of beginners. In fact, the soprano uke have been tuned in a different way when compared to other types of ukuleles available in the market. In fact, soprano is a traditional form of uke and most of the beginners love its simplicity. The size of this ukulele makes it less stretching to reach out for notes. Moreover, soprano can be considered as the cheapest type of ukulele available in the market. A variety of step by step tutorials are also available for the people who want to learn soprano.
All the people who purchase their very first ukulele are encouraged to stay away from baritone. The baritone ukuleles have been designed in a unique way and you will find it as a hard task to locate good tutorials and tabs.
The concert and tenor sized ukuleles will give more space for you to maneuver. However, these two types are not much recommended for the beginners. In fact, most of the professional ukulele players use tenor ukuleles.
How much you should spend on the ukulele?:
You need to have a clear understanding about the price that you should spend before purchasing one of the best ukuleles for beginners from the market. The cheapest ukulele out there in the market would not be the best option available – (“problems with tunning”). Therefore, it is better to spend at least $80 – $120 when purchasing your very first ukulele. On the other hand, it would be useless to spend few hundred dollars on purchasing the first uke. You can go for a basic one, save up that money and go for a better model when you have some experience.

Volcan Popocatepetl, a large stratovolcano located approximately 70 kilometers southeast of Mexico City, is considered by many volcanologists to be “the planet’s riskiest volcano.” The volcano warrants this distinction because of how close it is to one of the most densely populated megacities on Earth: near 23 million people lived in Mexico City in 2009. The variety of potential volcanic hazards at Popocatepetl is also considerable, including explosive eruptions of ash, pyroclastic flows (hot, fluid avalanches of rock fragments and gas), and debris avalanches.
This detailed astronaut photograph of the summit crater of Popocatepetl (image center) also highlights Ventorillo and Noroccidental Glaciers. Together with the ice on nearby Iztaccíhuatl Volcano and Pico de Orizaba (Mexico’s highest peak and the highest volcano in North America), Popocatepetl’s glaciers are the only mountain glaciers in tropical North America. The glaciers create yet another volcanic hazard: dangerous mudflows, or lahars, if the ice were to melt during an eruption. At the time this image was taken, steam and ash plumes were observed at the volcano. A faint white steam plume is visible against gray ash deposits on the eastern and southern flanks of the volcano.
Astronaut photograph ISS018-E-28898 was acquired on February 7, 2009, with a Nikon D2Xs digital camera fitted with an 800 mm lens, and is provided by the ISS Crew Earth Observations experiment and the Image Science & Analysis Laboratory, Johnson Space Center. The image was taken by the Expedition 18 crew. The image in this article has been cropped and enhanced to improve contrast. Lens artifacts have been removed. The International Space Station Program supports the laboratory to help astronauts take pictures of Earth that will be of the greatest value to scientists and the public, and to make those images freely available on the Internet. Additional images taken by astronauts and cosmonauts can be viewed at the NASA/JSC Gateway to Astronaut Photography of Earth. Caption William L. Stefanov, NASA-JSC.

Based in Karachi, Pakistani director Faisal Aman Khan, whose movie on Imran Khan titled 'Kaptaan' is already created ripples, talks about the debate on banning Indian movies in Pakistan
What is your take on the recent debate over banning of Indian movies in Pakistan? I have been seeing this debate on local television channels about banning Indian movies. Initially, I thought that they were right in pointing out that Indian films are being allowed to be showcased in Pakistan whereas Pakistani filmmakers were being denied the right to showcase their movies to be shown within their own country. But when I watched the movies made by these filmmakers of ours, I realized there was nothing Pakistani about those films. They were all cheap copies of Indian movies. We had talented filmmakers in the past but that is the problem. We live in the past to glorify ourselves with the achievements made by our forefathers. There is no doubt that there is enormous talent in our country and talent should be tested by pitching it against competition not by playing a cricket match alone. The sort of movies being made by our filmmakers is a disgrace. Very rarely does the educated class go out to watch the movies made by the traditional lot. When a film like "Zar Gul" is banned in Pakistan and "The Blood of Hussain" along with "Immaculate Conception" made by intelligent people like Salman Pirzada and Jamil Dehlavi respectively just because they had political themes or were against the Armed establishment of the country. Remember "Junoon" was banned by the successive regimes of Benazir Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif? The kind of cinema to come out of Pakistan is what you see today where "Haseena Atom Bomb" sort of movies dominate the screen. It's not just movies, it's the same with music.
But what about movies like "Khuda Key Liye", "Ramchand Pakistani" and "Bol"? As a Pakistani and a filmmaker, I might not agree with a lot of things shown in those movies. But everyone should have the right to express themselves and what better way than to use films as a medium?
What do you have to say about this thing about India's cultural invasion? With all due respect, we have already lost the battle but to win the war for the hearts and minds of our own people, we should come up with quality stuff and enlighten, entertain and educate the masses through media. That should be the policy followed by filmmakers. Sadly, I don't see that happening which makes me sadly admit the fact as rightly put forward by one of India's ex prime minister that "We have invaded Pakistan culturally". Yes, India has done it already but my question is to my fellow media professionals and Pakistanis generally. Would you stop watching Indian movies if they were not being shown in cinemas? No, you won't because it's human nature. It is curious to see and experience things on their own. So, let them do it. But we should come out with quality stuff of our own to be distinctive and should carry our own image. Cinema owners of Pakistan should give Pakistani filmmakers the right platform and a level playing field by giving as much promotion to the Pakistani movies as they do to promote Indian movies because it's just an excuse people use because they are afraid that they might have to change the way they are.

16.One of your friends, who is the sole shareholder of a private corporation, has decided that it would be a good idea to have his company pay for a swimming pool at his personal residence. He has concluded that this would be better than paying himself sufficient salary to construct the pool with his own funds. Do you agree? Explain your conclusion.
17.The general rule for shareholder loans is that they must be included in the shareholder’s income when received. Indicate two exceptions to this general rule that are available to all shareholders, without regard to whether they are employees as well as shareholders.
18.If the owner-manager of a private corporation is provided with a loan by his corporation to assist in acquiring a residence, he will not have to include the principal amount in income if he can demonstrate that he received the loan in his capacity as an employee, rather than as a shareholder of the corporation. Explain why this may be difficult for him to do.
19.John Brothers is a shareholder of Brothers Ltd. He is also considered to be an employee. Brothers Ltd. provides John with an interest free loan to assist him in purchasing a home after being moved to a new work location. Explain why John would prefer to have his loan benefit assessed to him as an employee, rather than as a shareholder.
20.Provide two examples of management compensation that can either reduce or defer the taxation applicable to a corporation and its shareholders. For each example, explain how the reduction or deferral occurs.
21.List and describe three factors, other than tax reduction and tax deferral, that should be considered by an owner-manager when choosing between salary compensation and the receipt of dividends.
22.Even in situations where provincial tax and dividend tax credit rates favour the use of dividends, owner-managers may retain more after tax income if they receive some part of their compensation in the form of salary. Explain this statement.

Exhibition Tour “melanie bonajo. When the body says Yes+”
During this exhibition tour, the coordinator of the exhibition, Inga Jaagus, guides you through melanie bonajo’s exhibition “When the body says Yes+”.
“When the body says Yes+” is the solo exhibition of the Dutch artist melanie bonajo. The artist is searching for an answer to the question of whether there is still a place for intimacy in our increasingly commercialised and technological world. The central theme of the exhibition is touch, literally, but also touch as our relationship to each other and the world around us. For bonajo, touch can be a powerful remedy for the modern epidemic of loneliness.
melanie bonajo (they/them/theirs) is a Dutch artist, film-maker, somatic sex coach and educator, cuddle workshop facilitator and activist creating immersive queer spaces. They are interested in communities outside the mainstream, who live or work on the margins of society, either through cultural exclusion or because they do not belong to a normative system. Issues of ethical and empathic coexistence, body politics, equality and alternative forms of perception of the world and oneself are prominent in bonajo’s work.
This event is a part of the Kumu 18! programme.

Impressions of Artist Point @ Yellowstone
Lowerfalls overlooking from Artist Point @ Yellowstone National Park.
Why this place called ‘Artist Point’? This place was made popular largely contributed to an artist named Thomas Moran. Public including the congress were so fascinated by the spectacular view of the landscape drawn by Thomas. When people realized that the view was not imaginative but really existed, the first conservation National Park in the world was estalbished in 1872. Just do an Internet search on “The Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone”, and you can see the beautiful drawings by Thomas Moran.
Why the name ‘Yellowstone’? The stones were multi-color but predominantly yellowish, thus Yellowstone.
The Yellowstone River curved out a canyon in the park, so it provided a beautiful viewpoint at the Artist Point.
Both the Artist Point and the Inspiration Point are near to the Canyon Village. The Artist Point is worth stopping over, spending some times and doing nothing, just admiring the views.
Yellowstone is really a great outdoor park to bring children to get close to nature (not too close to the edge until they fell over). A side note, when I returned from this trip, there was a news of tourist fell into Niagara Falls and died. The cause of standing at the edge to take picture.

The morning was bright with sunshine and abuzz with insect life as I took my woven basket and entered the bushland beyond our vegetable garden, walking until the farm was hidden from sight and sound.
Counterpoints of drama, life and death, ebbed and flowed against the edges of my mind. I tried to block it out, put it into a box, like the one Lark had described to me… but my box was full of holes and was of such a shoddy construction I was rather ashamed of it, I thought wryly.
Scavenging for one thing often led to collecting others and I found some edible mushrooms that could be added to our midday meal, and some fat, white bodied grubs that squirmed in protest. Little deaths. My family would eat them raw, alive and wriggling between the pearly death of teeth, but I could not stand the little death to occur within my own head. It resonated badly and would make my bile rise in protest. So, these grubs were for Lark, and not for me.
The larger life was snuffed in a sudden moment of violence that took me by such surprise I dropped my basket, scattering greenery, mushrooms and fat grubs alike. Larger deaths did occur, of course, within the bushland, but normally there was some warning of a predator in the area, so it did not come so rudely.
The larger Death’s pull was irresistible, dark velveteen, rich and ripe. I crept through the undergrowth, helpless to the siren call of it.
A man had felled a large hopper.
I hid, crouched in the roots of an overgrown shrub.
Men did enter the bushland to hunt, of course, but rarely as deep as our farm lay. Hunters did not have to venture deep into the bush to find their prey: our area was not heavily populated and so the prey was not overhunted. It was unusual to encounter a hunting party. Or any party… It was not easy walking through the undergrowth, and if someone were travelling from point A to point B, they did so via the most direct and easiest route, like the road.
This man was not a hunter. His clothing was… not just wrong, but completely foreign. Black, head to foot, a black that shifted and gleamed in the light, but also swallowed it into shadow. The black formed a close-fitting helmet over his head, and smoked glass covered his face. Weapons were worn at hip, clasped to his calves, at wrist and bicep, strapped across his back. Some were familiar but also different in make, their handles smoother and shape sleeker.
He paused in his butchery, angled his head slightly my direction, as if listening for something. I did not dare to breathe, lest I gave my position away. For an age it seemed, we stayed that way, but then he seemed satisfied and resumed his work, a black bladed knife swiftly separating hide from flesh, bone from meat, and join from joint.
Twice more he paused, seeming to turn the smoked glass my way. Once I thought I heard a voice, muffled, spoken from behind that shining shield. I crouched lower, fearful he was not alone, and yet no other approached from the bushes around, so I had to assume that if he had spoken, it was to himself… or me.
My heart stuttered hard in my chest, loudly in my ears. I breathed shallow and fast as I tried to keep the sound of my breath as quiet as possible. The bushland was still, eerily and uncommonly so. A stillness that seemed to give significance to the meeting and threatened to carry any little sound I might make easily to him.
I teetered between fear of how swiftly that efficient blade could end my life, and a feeling that perhaps echoed my mother’s empathic ability: a sense that he knew of my presence and intended me no harm.
He took the tail, the legs, the heart and kidneys, and packed it in a silver sack that expanded like magic from a tiny package withdrawn from a hidden pocket in his trousers. He laid the other cuts from the corpse on top of the neatly debrided hide, leaving behind a tidy, gorily clean carcass, and a neat offering like package of meats and skin.
And then he lifted the sack to his shoulder and walked away.
Why would he leave perfectly fine meat behind? I wondered. Was my feeling that he had known I was there to be trusted? Was the meat a gift, a gesture of goodwill?
Or a trap?
The bush offered no answer, nor did its leaves and branches, shadows and shimmers, give sight of any lurking man in black waiting to pounce upon me.
My legs protested as I stood, blood flowing once more through them. I went forward, carefully, not trusting my cramped limbs to move swiftly if needed. And yet, thrift was ingrained deep into me by our parents, and food was not to be wasted, nor a perfectly good hide.
I took it, bundled meat in hide as his arrangement of such indicated I should do, and nothing happened.
I hurried away as if pursuit was at my heels.
The farm seemed untouched, serene and indifferent to the significant encounter, and that sat in discord to my inner unsettlement. I crossed garden, past grumpy goat, and fossicking chickens, into the house where Lark was washing dishes.
“You are late back. Your breakfast is cold,” she wiped her hands on her skirt as she turned to face me and frowned. “What is that, and where is your basket?”
I had forgotten the basket in the bush. I winced, I would have to go back for it – baskets were labour to make and should not be discarded carelessly. “I saw a man in the bush.”
Her gaze turned inward. “Not near enough that I can hear,” she said, her grey eyes thoughtful, at which I released a breath, as it had occurred to me that he might follow me home. I told her of his kill, and how the meat and hide had been left.
“You should have left it!” she rubbed her temples. “He will now know there’s someone nearby if that were his intention. An animal would have scattered the meat and hide, not removed it so neatly, and worried the bones.”
“I am sorry, I did not think of that,” I felt the heavy hand of fear on my chest. “Should I return it, do you think?”
“Too late now, I expect,” she said. “And there is the other possibility that he knew you were there. He may have been stalking the hopper for some time and crossed your path with you unknowing. Perhaps he thought you must be from a larger settlement, and that by leaving some of his kill, he might pass un-molested.”
“I did not think that.” I felt foolish.
“Either way, we’ll let the basket sit for a day or so, I think,” she said. “Maybe until father is home. We should not venture alone beyond the boundaries of the farm. He may not be alone, and we don’t know his intention. It’s best to assume the worst, rather than regret it.”
“That seems wise,” I agreed, and yet, there was a twinge of something else in me; some little but rather vocal part of me wanted to return, to find where he camped, and spy upon him. I also realised I had not described his clothing, weapons and helmet to Lark, and the strangeness of it. And, although I should have spoken, I did not, for a reason I could not quite name.
“We shall have to work twice as hard tomorrow,” she continued, “so as not to fall behind on the paper. Mother will expect us to have made our usual quota by their return, and I would hate to let her down.”
“Stupid paper,” I grumbled. “What does it do for us? Useless, boring scribbles that are never read…”
“We trade it, too,” she reminded me, patiently. “I know you hate making paper, but it’s tradition, and we have to uphold it, and it helps to provide for us, so is important.”
“Have you ever thought, we should read the writings?” I asked her. “Surely things are writ in order to be read.”
“No,” she shook her head. “We write to record, to journal what was, what is. Not to read it ourselves. In this, we serve a greater purpose, this is our contribution to history.”
“Why? Why is that? What harm would us reading do? We can rewrap and put it back, and not have changed our contribution a bit.”
“Because if we were meant to read it, the job of reading and writing would have been passed down, not just that of writing,” she replied.
“I think we should read them,” I said, stubbornly. “Whilst mother and father are gone, we should read them, and then put them back. They would never know, and maybe we will have learned something.”
“What?” she asked, raising her eyebrows. “What do you think we would learn?”
“Why we are as we are. What exactly happened before.”
“And you think the answers are written on the texts kept by generation after generation of farmers?” she was surprised. “We are not important people, important things do not happen to us, or around us. Such important events would not be held within the pages of our family’s records. Maybe a different way to make paper, or a different recipe for bread… but the answers for why things are as they are, and what they were before? No, not likely.”
“Why do we keep the texts if not because they hold something important?” I picked up a trinket father kept on the shelf, a thing of metal, its purpose unfathomable, its manufacture beyond anything we could now produce. “We have seen the wreckage in the village, the vehicles they used to have, we have seen pieces recycled and repurposed of their old technology, that we no longer understand the original use of, and we have seen father repair pieces that we still can use, amazing things. Can you imagine what life was once like? Why did it stop? Mother says because of people like us, and that others fear us. Why? I want to know.”
“And you think our family’s writings will tell you?” she was still dubious, but also, I sensed, intrigued. “We could not spend enough time reading all that is down there, to find the answers, within the next couple of days, without falling far, far behind in our work, and mother and father would know that we had spent our time in a different way,” she said practically.
“We could read some, maybe find the oldest ones, and start there?” I suggested. “It would not need to take so long. I could read it out loud, whilst you make paper.”
“Ha,” she laughed, “is that your purpose, to evade paper making?”
“No,” but I grinned, “it’s an added benefit, though.”
“I will think about it,” she said, which was a concession. I could not ask for anything else. “In the meantime, you can put that meat in with some herbs, and I will cook it for my lunch.”

Members of two far-right groups demonstrated at the Western Wall in hope of ascending to the Temple Mount to conduct Passover prayers. Demonstrators from the Temple Mount and Land of Israel Faithful movements dressed in orange the color of the settlement movement arrived at the Mughrabi Gate in Jerusalem late Thursday morning, the Jerusalem Post reported. Police had been deployed throughout the area, but no violent clashes were reported. Meanwhile, up to 10,000 Jews gathered at the Western Wall to hear the priestly blessing for the holiday.

In a bid to give back and uplift the our country’s health sector, MTN Uganda has on Monday donated 100 beds to nine health centers under the jurisdiction of the Kampala City Council Authority (KCCA).
The beds and amenities including mattresses, bed sheets, blankets and mosquito nets were handed over to Kisugu, Komamboga, Kisenyi, Kitebi and Kawaala.
The donated items that include 100 mattresses, 100 bed sheets, 100 blankets and 100 mosquito nets equated at a tune of 100,000,000 Uganda shillings which were delivered by Anthony Katamba, the General Manager, Corporate Services MTN Uganda at Kawaala Health Center.
He noted that this is one of the projects MTN Uganda is working on to see that the lives of our are in safe hands and this whole initiative is part of the broader MTN Foundation’s support to the health sector through its “Access to Healthcare” initiative.
Katamba also added that Low bed capacity in health centers results in people sleeping on the floor, which is often uncomfortable and below the minimum standards for health care thereby forcing MTN to come in so that the problem can be solved.
Speaking during the event Jennifer Musisi the Executive Director of KCCA hailed MTN for the motherly loved depicted and called upon them not to stop on this since Ugandans still need a lot of help in regard with the health sector.
It should be noted that reports on the state of regional referral hospitals in Uganda overtime, indicate that most facilities and equipment in these hospitals countrywide are in a state of disrepair. Bed capacity in hospitals and health centers is still low resulting into overcrowding and poor quality care of inpatients.

Glock pistols have a low MSRP
| Glock handguns are excellent for hidden bring. Their low MSRP makes them easy to conceal. Due to the fact that of their steel sights, they are not unnoticeable on X-ray makers.}
The low MSRP of Glock handguns makes them a popular choice amongst novices and experienced shooters. The trigger of a Glock handgun isn ‘t ideal, it ‘s still perfectly functional for self-defense and hobby shooting.
There are a number of Glock designs to select from, including the Glock 42, Glock 43, and the Glock 43. The Glock 42 is not as slim as the Glock 43, however it is still a pocket-friendly weapon.
In addition to their low MSRP, Glock handguns are also known for their sturdiness. They have high dependability and can withstand abuse even in the most extreme conditions. They also feature an unique cocking system that decreases the load on the recoil spring. In contrast, most other striker-fired handguns depend on the recoil spring to cock the striker.
The Glock 19 pistol was first produced in 1988. The Glock Gen 4 and Gen 5 designs have actually become really popular with civilians and self-defense shooters alike. Are Glock 43 And 43x Triggers The Same.
The Baltimore Police Department, Los Angeles Police Department, Miami Police Department, and Maryland State Police are all known to utilize the Glock handgun. The Edmonton Police Service, Calgary Police Service, and Ottawa Police Service utilize Glock pistols for their patrols.
Glock produces five various models of its subcompact handguns. These handguns come in a range of sizes.
One of the advantages of owning a Glock is their easy concealability. Here are a few tips to help you bring your Glock in an unobtrusive manner.
Glock handguns come in lots of sizes and models. To find the finest one for your requirements, check out the Glock handgun contrast guide.
For those who want to carry concealed, there are two popular Glock designs: the G43 and the G42. Both guns are small and easy to hide, and both are popular among concealed providers. The Glock 43 has a slim profile and is 3.39 inches long. This makes it one of the most convenient hidden pistols readily available.
Another terrific handgun for concealment is the Glock 48. This single-stack pistol is the ideal size to hide.
A smaller sized grip, shorter sight radius, and less recoil make concealment much easier. It ‘s a huge benefit, especially if you plan on concealing the gun in a concealed carry scenario.
The slim-profile G48 and G43x designs are best for hidden carry. The slim frame and low-profile style make them easy to hide and are both striker-fired. For the most compact Glock, consider the G48.
When choosing in between a polymer or steel sight for your Glock, there are a number of various aspects to think about. Of all, metal sights are far more resilient than polymer sights. A resilient and robust sight is important for concealed bring or duty bring. If the firearm will undergo heavy use, a steel sight is a much better option.
Second, if you ‘re interested in competition and target shooting, there are a number of options offered. While factory sights are normally decent for self-defense use, they ‘re not as excellent as those utilized for target or competitors shooting. To resolve this problem, Glock offers upgraded sights for its pistol designs. Unfortunately, most Glock pistols come standard with inexpensive plastic sights, which are susceptible to damage. The standard sights are fine if you ‘re not looking for a sight for competitors. Are Glock 43 And 43x Triggers The Same.

Carrying on from last post, here is reworked print with a layer of tone added with the techniques of sugar lift and Spit-biting .
It is a techniques that helps create a much more painterly mark. I was pleased with the outcome because of the range of tones I have managed to make.
As I am new to Spit biting I was working without really knowing what I would get at the end, hoping I was leaving acid on long enough, or not too long!

From behind a frozen granite slab, the staff of Cold Stone Creamery uses twin spatulas to blend custom servings of ice cream and creative mix-ins to fit customers? exact specifications. Founded by Donald and Susan Sutherland in 1988, Cold Stone began under the hot Arizona sun, eventually spreading its frosty fingers to encompass more than 1,400 locations worldwide. Despite the size of the company, each location?s staff keeps up the handcrafted quality, making ice cream onsite every day and using those signature spatulas to create delicious pointillist art against the freezer wall.

In 1982, Joan Tallman started professionally baking in her kitchen using Swedish techniques she learned from her grandmother, eventually setting up The Bread Basket Bakery in 1992 within the classic 20th-century architecture of the former Pure Oil Company building. Joan and her expert staff, which includes her two sons Matthew and Chad, whip up fresh baked goods such as cake pops and pies daily as well as french toast breakfasts and hot paninis and salads at lunch. Patrons can ferry their aromatic comestibles home or take a seat at a cozy table to sip gourmet coffees and tea and admire the historic setting’s arched doorways and windows.

The New York Times has noted that “Mrs. London's would be much more at home on the Right Bank of Paris than in a resort town upstate.” The mention of Paris is fitting, as husband-and-wife team Wendy and Michael London specialize in French-inspired pastries. They bake using high-quality ingredients from local farmers, organic grains, Plugra butter, and Valrhona chocolate. Their chocolate mousse cake, filled with silken chocolate, is served with a white rum sabayon.

Staffers serve each meal in the bakery’s 1800s Americana-inspired shop, which boasts Brunschwig & Fils wallpaper, neo-classical mirrors, and replica Argand chandeliers that were featured in the film Amistad.

Make This The Biggest Meeting Concerning Mental Health Manchester Has Ever Seen!
Make This The Biggest Meeting Concerning Mental Health Manchester Has Ever Seen. We Need Ideas To Fix The Rot. People are dying. Meeting Saturday 22nd November, 2014 “It’s Time to be Heard” If your connected to mental health and we all are, you havCOME AND JOIN US !
“WHAT MANCHESTER DOES TODAY THE WORLD WILL DO TOMORROW “e to be there !
Newton Heath: Rememberance Day, Respecting is part of their makeup !
Young and old stood shoulder to shoulder in this poignant ceremony marking the 100 years since the outbreak of the First World War A bugler sounded the ‘Last Post’ which marked the beginning and the end of the two minutes’ silence.
There are “serious and deeply ingrained problems” with child and adolescent mental health services, officials warn.
The Health Select Committee says the whole system – from prevention and early intervention through to inpatient services – has issues.
While demand for care is rising, in many parts of the country funding is being frozen or cut.
The government said it had launched a taskforce to drive up standards, and was investing money in mental health.
The Health Select Committee, which received the most written submissions for any inquiry it has held this Parliament, was particularly concerned about children and young people being taken to police cells rather than hospital.
“People who are in need of psychiatric admission should have the right to be treated in a local hospital”
A mental health service has said it is being forced to send patients almost 200 miles away for treatment because it is struggling to meet demand for beds.
Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health Trust said it operates at 100% capacity for a majority of the time.
It said beds will “always be found” in an emergency, but patients have been sent as far as Brighton and Carlisle.
The head of Unison has urged NHS staff to ‘keep on fighting’ after six different unions in Manchester took part in the first nationwide health service walkout for 32 years.
The strike was triggered by the coalition government’s decision to refuse NHS staff the 1% pay rise recommended by an independent pay review body and sparked further outrage after the proposal to award MPs a 9% pay rise earlier this year.
Children and young people being admitted to adult mental health wards should be a “rare event”
Children and young people being admitted to adult mental health wards should be a “rare event”, says new draft guidance.
But if it does happen, an independent advocate should be appointed for that person, says the NHS guidelines.
This follows criticism from watchdogs and a BBC Wales investigation in which experts said the service was in crisis.

“The Sound of Waves” is a typical boy-meets-girl story. Shinji is a poor fisherman on Uta-jima, a small island in Ise Bay. Hatsue left the island as a young girl to train to be a pearl diver. When she returns, now a young woman, Shinji falls for her but finds he has a rival in the rich and powerful Yasuo.
The couple struggle to maintain an illicit courtship in the face of malicious rumors and parental intransigence. When Yasuo and Shinji are chosen to join the crew of a merchant cargo ship, Shinji’s selflessness and bravery in a crisis mark him out as the better man.
The continuing popularity of “The Sound of Waves” — it has been adapted for screen five times — lies in its accessibility. The dense philosophizing that characterized Yukio Mishima’s later works is absent here, and the story is disarming in its simplicity. It is rather a conservative tale, where the chaste and honest couple who observe social traditions are rewarded after stoically suffering, but the beauty of Mishima’s prose and the vibrant evocation of island life elevate this short novel far beyond its constituent parts.
It also deals more directly with the aftermath of World War II than most of Mishima’s work. The island, facing the Pacific, is littered with reminders of the conflict, most movingly in the absence of fathers. It’s no surprise that it won Mishima the Shincho Prize in 1954 or that there is a booming tourist trade of fan pilgrimage on Kami-shima, the model for Uta-jima. (Iain Maloney)

With Earth Day 2015 just a couple days away, here are 10 simple things you can do to make your home more energy efficient.
Wrap your water heater with an insulation jacket. The Department of Energy says this $30 fix could save you 4%-6% on your water heating cost.
Install a programable thermostat. EnergyStar says a programable thermostat may save you up to $180 per year on your heating and cooling cost.
Check and change your furnace filter every 30 days. A dirty filter slows down the air movement in your ducts causing your furnace and air conditioner to work longer and harder costing your more and wearing out your equipment sooner.
Install CFL or LED light bulbs. These bulbs use significantly less energy, upto 70% – 90% less and last significantly longer.
Wash your clothes in cold water. EnergyStar states that 90% of the energy used to wash clothes comes from heating the water.
Close the fireplace flue damper tightly when not in use. An open flue allows the warm air your furnace is producing a quick escape route and makes your furnace work longer and harder…and you spending more money.
Find and fix leaky faucets. A faucet leaking 1 drip per second will add up to over 1600 gallons of water per year.
Cover pots and pans when cooking on the stove. This traps the heat in, increasing cooking temperature and possibly reducing cooking time.
Have your heating and cooling system professionally tuned up each season. This keeps your system operating at maximum efficiency and helps reduce breakdowns and failures in the future.
Turn off lights and fans when you are not in a room. This is one of the easiest ways to start saving energy and money. The EnergyStar program says its cost about $20 per year to leave one light on for 8 hours a day.
Currently Chicagoland homeowners can receive up to $1020 for installing a high efficient furnace and air conditioning system. The rebates will continue in some form beyond May 31st, but will most likely be at a lower dollar amount.
This is the big questions everyone wants to know. Unfortunately, there is no easy answer or any set price. The cost of a new HVAC system can depend on many different items.

David Cameron has taken aim at the welfare system and the "culture of entitlement" by suggesting a series of benefit cuts.
In a lengthy speech Cameron set out his party's stall on the welfare state with a call for wide-ranging debates on the alteration of the benefits system that will appeal to the Tory right.
The prime minister proposed restrictions on benefits for jobless families with large numbers of children, scrapping housing benefits for the under-25s and making the unemployed take on community work in order to secure their payments.
He said: "We have, in some ways, created a welfare gap in this country between those living long-term in the welfare system and those outside it.
"Those within it grow up with a series of expectations. You can have a home of your own, the state will support you whatever decisions you make, you will always be able to take out no matter what you put in.
"This has sent out some incredibly damaging signals. That it pays not to work. That you are owed something for nothing. It gave us millions of working-age people sitting at home on benefits even before the recession hit. It created a culture of entitlement."
Cameron's comments will sit well with the more strident voices on theTory right, who have voiced frustration with the levels of benefit abuse in the country.
He made it clear that he would not backtrack on his pre-election promise to maintain the state pension and winter fuel allowance for the over-65s.
Instead it was the component that he described as "working age welfare", which accounts for around £84bn of annual government expenditure, which he claimed has "gone truly awry".
He took the opportunity to criticise the Labour government for creating the welfare culture by creating what Nick Clegg called the "poverty plus £1" approach of pushing people £1 over the poverty line and considering the job done.
"This government is challenging the old narrow view that the key to beating poverty is simply income redistribution," he said.
Cameron said: "This year we increased benefits by 5.2 percent. That was in line with the inflation rate last September, but it was almost twice as much as the average wage increase.
"Given that so many people are struggling to make ends meet we have to ask whether this is the right approach."
He claimed it was "extraordinary" that there are 1.4 million people who have been our of work for the past 10 years.
Claiming that the benefit cap would put a stop to the most outrageous housing benefit cases, he said that people could still seek housing support up to a rate of £20,000 a year, which is 25 percent higher than the average paid rent in Lonson.
Based on rent being considered as a third of post-tax income, he said this means that a working person would have to be on a wage of around £80,000 to afford the rent.
"Surely we should ask if it's fair that the maximimum amount that you can get on housing benefit is set at a level that only the top five percent of earners would otherwise be able to afford."
Cameron claimed the welfare system sent out the wrong signals when it comes to people deciding whether to have children.
"If you are a single parent living outside London - if you have four children and you're renting a house on housing benefit - then you can claim almost £25,000 a year," he said.
"This is more than the average take home pay of a farm worker and a nursery nurse put together."
He added: "The bigger picture is that today one in six children in Britain is living in a workless household - one of the highest rates in Europe.
"We have been encouraging working-age people to have children and not work, when we should be enabling working-age people to work and have children."
Parents who already have children could find them staying in the house longer than expected following Cameron's suggestion to scrap housing benefits for the under-25s.
There are 210,000 people aged 16-24 on housing benefits and Cameron said: "Some of these young people will genuinely have nowhere else to live - but many will.
"For literally millions, the passage to independence is several years living in their childhood bedroom as they save up to move out.
"While for many others, it's a trip to the council where they can get housing benefit at 18 or 19 - even if they're not actively seking work."
He claimed the benefit system penalises households that claim benefits if their child wants to go out to work, with a non-dependent deducation that can cut up to £74 of weekly housing benefit.
"In effect the state doesn't just open the door to dependency for young people, it drags them in."
Finally Cameron elaborated on the need to change what is expected from a person on benefits.
He suggested a benefit system which required a person to achieve basic literacy and numeracy skills and put together a CV, while those who are on disability benefits could "take more steps to improve their health".
He also mooted claimants having to carry out some sort of community work to maintain their welfare payments.
Cameron admitted that the points he raised were "provocative", but added that they were also "long overdue".
"Frankly a lot of it might rub people the wrong way," he said.
The proposals will do little to ingratiate Cameron with the young and unemployed, many of whom already feel cheated by the government following the last budget and the decision to cut the 50p tax rate.
Shadow work and pensions secretary Liam Byrne told the Today Programme: "Each week we hear of another new initiative, another crackdown, another test.
"Meanwhile, in the real world, the cost of out-of-work benefits is up nearly £5bn, housing benefit over £4bn, the Work Programme is failing and the multibillion-pound universal credit scheme is running late and over budget.
"Welfare spending is going up under this government because too many people are out of work, but at the last budget the Chancellor's priority was not help to get people out of work but a tax cut for millionaires.
Campbell Robb, chief executive of Shelter, said: "It's outrageous that the government is considering undermining the housing safety net yet again."
The first glimpse of Liberal Democrat discomfort with Cameron's speech came from Cardiff MP Jenny Willott, who told Sky: "Some of the proposals I would have serious concerns about, particularly removing housing benefit from the under-25s.
"There are lots of people that really rely on that benefit."

Half day Wine Experience
The climate at 2400 m above sea level is a perpetual spring. Even though, this region does not have very hot or very cold temperatures, there is a broad variation of temperature between daytime and nighttime. Nevertheless, a major challenge has been to experiment with approximately 30 viniferous grape varieties to understand which varieties would be appropriate for Ecuadorian weather. 15 years later this is the result!

What a difference a day makes!
I had planned to go to the WriteWise Book Camp this weekend with my fellow authors and WW peeps, but my plans fell through--and then my alternate plan fell through. So by last night I was pretty dang bummed. That is, until I got on FaceBook and checked up on my friends.
Heather Justesen posted about AuthorPalooza going on this afternoon at the Barnes and Noble Bookstore in Sandy from 1-4pm and I thought, what the heck. I was all set to talk books and rub shoulders with other authors this weekend anyway, and AuthorPalooza was hosting over 30 published authors. Wow. And again. 30 published authors in one store. WOW.
Not only did I get to see Heather again (whose book I already own and read), but I got to see James Dashner again, Jessica Day George, Nichole Giles, Cindy Beck, Terri Ferran, Ronda Gibb Hinrichsen, Ann Cannon, Carol Lynch Williams, Lisa Mangum, Emily Smith, Sydney Salter and Nathan Hale.
Nathan is a lot of fun. He kept our crowd at the Purple Cow entertained (see past blogs) for a while when the rest of the authors ::coughs:: Dean and Shannon Hale were late. I hoped he'd have some of his picture books out for sale--the family had a ton of fun with The Devil You Know, but alas, all he had was what we'd already purchased. Ah well. It was still great to say hi chat for a bit. Sydney Salter I've also seen before, though I'm sure she doesn't remember. She was with a few other authors at The Purple Cow early last year. I've wanted her book, My Big Nose and other Natural Disasters, ever since--and now I have a signed copy.
I'd ordered a ton of James Dashner books just before finding out about the signing, so I only picked up The Maze Runner today. Had it signed to my son, because I'm cool like that.
The girls raided the Jessica Day George table. Jessica and I shared a stage at the Grantsville Jr High's author days last year. This happened a lot today. I'd get that, "You look really familiar" look from about 90% of the authors I approached. Yes, I'd say--I've been around a lot.
It's a good thing authors like to see people return again and again, otherwise I might be looked upon as a stalker. Yes, I drove 40 miles to blow my income for the month (don't get excited, I only make about $100/mo) and meet my friends and authors and get said books signed. Yes, I do this a couple of times a year because I find Utah to be culturally good to authors and I like to support that--seeing as I hope to be one of them someday.
I also picked up Austenland by Shannon Hale and a couple of Julie Wright books--even though they weren't in attendance.
Look for my upcoming reviews of the treasures I've acquired at this blog or you can find me on Goodreads.com
Now, if you don't mind, there are several books calling my name...


A repairman who was dispatched to service an escalator in Chongqing ended up being eaten by the machinery and suffered extensive injuries. It looks like the machines are turning on even those sent to repair them.
According to Tencent, the incident took place earlier today outside a supermarket located near the campus of Southwest University. The repairman somehow ended up being pulled under the escalator steps where he remained trapped until help arrived.
While you might be tempted to think that this is yet another horrific escalator accident due to poor maintenance, like the one which shocked the nation last summer when a woman was crushed to death after falling through a loose section of flooring, it turns out that his misfortune might have been of his own making.
While exact details of how the accident occurred have not been released, reports indicate that the repairman had failed to disconnect the power before getting to work, pretty much standard practice when it comes to repairing complicated and potentially dangerous machinery.
Still, we don’t like the look of those rusty pieces of metal you can see exposed when the steps of the escalator are removed.
Firefighters arrived on the scene quickly to rescue the man. He is reported to have sustained severe injuries but for now is said to be in a stable condition.
