ABOUT CHiltrix cx34 air to water heat pump
30,000 BTU Heating / 24,000 BTU Cooling
All-DC Inverter (Compressor and Water Pump) , High efficiency Air to Water Heat pump. Unmatched Performance in Extreme Canadian Weather conditions. Has a temperature operating range between -20°C (-4°F) to 40.6°C (105.1°F). Heat and Cool Water and/or Glycol Solution. Supply Hot Water at temperatures as high as 55°C (131°F) and Chilled Water at temperatures as low as 5°C (41°F).
The CX34 air cooled chiller works by cooling or heating a water or water/glycol fluid distribution loop with a high efficiency DC-Inverter compressor and pumping the fluid through ductless fan coils, hydronic air handler, and/or floor heating system. Any or all of these types of indoor equipment can be used, and can be used in combination with each other if desired. The fluid is returned to the chiller ODU to heat or cool it back to its operating temperature. The fluid contains water with 0-50% glycol, depending on the location and expected winter conditions. The CX34 uses a variable speed compressor and variable speed water/fluid flow, along with a variable speed condenser fan. This is not an "evaporative" chiller, it consumes no water and works fine regardless of humidity, performing strong dehumidification as needed. The water/glycol is used to only to distribute heating and cooling between the outdoor unit and indoor units, no water is consumed.
What makes CHILTRIX CX34 Unique
Anti-Corrosion Chiller Air Conditioner Technology For Coastal & Salty Air
Building the worlds highest efficiency air-cooled chiller is great, but it needs to last. That's why the CX34 components list looks like a who's-who of top name component providers including MultiStack, SWEP, Mitsubushi, Emerson, and others. In addition, Chiltrix employs anti-corrosion coils on its outdoor unit. This special coil technology resists corrosion from salty air and other airborne pollutants.
Designed for adverse air quality, all Chiltrix chillers use the anti-corrosion technology. This is not a coating. Anti-corrosion coatings eventually wear off, and worse, the coating acts as an insulation layer which reduces the coil efficiency. The Chiltrix anti-corrosion is a part of the manufacturing process, not something that is added later. And not added after official performance testing has been done.
NOT A COATING The aluminum fins of the outdoor heat exchanger coil are manufactured with a special silica based nanotechnology process for long life and corrosion resistance. The unique SiO2 nanotech manufacturing process used to produce the coil includes the addition of silica (essentially, glass) into the aluminum fins, which allow the fins to resist corrosive salts and extends the life of the coil. This is not a post-manufacturing coating and it can never wear off.
TIGHTLY SEALED In addition to the special coil, the Chiltrix compressor and condenser fans use long-lasting brushless DC inverter motors made with Neodymium (Rare Earth) permanent magnets. The mechanical components are hermetically sealed. No water, moisture, air, salt, dust, or other contaminates can get inside.
EFFICIENCY - Some other manufacturers test and certify an aluminum fin coil and then afterwards, add an anti-corrosion coating over the aluminum fins, which lowers the performance. The capacity and efficiency testing is done without the coating, which means that the end users of the anti-corrosion-coated units get less capacity and efficiency than what's advertised. Not so with Chiltrix. Our units were sent to the AHRI lab and tested with the anti-corrosion coil installed. The extreme high performance of the Chiltrix air-to-water chiller heat pumps, and the ratings we publish, are net of any performance loss due to anti-corrosion technology.
DYNAMIC HUMIDITY CONTROL In a coastal or tropical environment? Then chances are you have high outdoor humidity too. Meet the only air-cooled chiller air conditioner with Dynamic Humidity Control. Keep the humidity outside. See on the right.
Programmable Chiller Automation w/ DHC (Dynamic Humidity Control)
The Psychrologix™ chiller controller is ideal for homes, small business, or server-room cooling applications where tight humidity control and increased efficiency is required. The controller manages humidity, efficiency optimization, alarms, automatic switch over from cooling to heating, summer and winter vacation modes, and more. Controls up to three chillers either in lead-lag or combined as a single larger chiller.
Chiltrix small air cooled chillers with Psychrologix™ control use a unique psychrometric controls approach coupled with variable speed compressors, variable speed pumps, variable speed fans, etc. The Chiltrix chillers match their capacity to the load so precisely that often buffer tanks are not needed. Not only is capacity matched in real time, but the parameters are continuously adjusted in response to conditions. For example, when more dehumidification is needed, the Psychrologix™ DHC controller lowers the indoor unit coil temperature to remove more humidity. When humidity is under control, the system raises the coil temperature to a more energy efficient temperature that still provides the needed cooling, but does not remove as much humidity, or may at times remove no humidity at all if humidity is already low enough.
Humidity removal (dehumidification, or latent heat removal) is very energy intensive and consumes a large part of the total energy used by an air conditioner. When needed, dehumidification is a good thing and the Chiltrix chillers do an outstanding job of humidity removal. Chiltrix chillers with psychrometric controls can also automatically perform hyper-dehumidification by increasing humidity removal to levels that surpass those of a normal chiller or air conditioner, if needed, to deal with extra high humidity.
Humidity does not pass through walls like heat, it requires an air flow from a more humid area, like for example, a door opening to the outside on a humid day, or an internal source such as a steamy hot shower or people exercising, etc. Once indoor humidity is under control and within the user-defined range, humidity should remain low for extended periods without additional dehumidification unless additional humidity is introduced into the space. During periods when humidity is in range, the Psychrologix™ DHC controller will automatically adjust the chiller parameters to provide thermostat cooling, but not provide dehumidification. Turning off dehumidification saves a very large amount of energy when conditions allow.

The project has slowed up recently but I’ve been in touch recently with relatives of former England amateur footballers. A new blog post will follow.
Today I was privileged enough to be taken on a tour of the British Newspaper Library, which is based in Colindale, North West London. Every newspaper owner in the UK and Republic of Ireland are obliged to deposit a copy with the library as part of its legal deposit.
The earliest items in the library date from the seventeenth century. The library holds 750 million pages of newspapers, journals, newsletters and even football programmes, of which the latter is stored away in a secure part of the library buildings, with the other items considered precious. I have regularly made to the trip up the Northern Line to visit the place since 1992 to research football’s history, but this was the first time I had ventured into the inner workings of what I regard as one of the finest archives in the UK, if not the World.
Bound volumes on a stack in the repository.
The British Library bought the land in the Edwardian period to relieve stock overcrowding at its London base. Horse and cart delivered requests for newspapers to London from Colindale. It was not until 1932 that the building was first opened to the public. The Second World War was disastrous for the library, a German bomb exploded in October 1940, destroying 6,000 bound volumes, which were lost forever. Subsequent extensions to the library bring it to its current size.
The collection is stored on several floors. The items located nearest to the reading rooms – behind the double doors marked “staff only” are the catalogue collection marked “MLD”, which relates to London-based periodicals. Now I know why my microfilm copies of The Sportsman or The Sporting Life always arrive quicker than requests for Scottish or Irish newspapers, which are located further away in the Library’s holdings. My tour guide told me that readers must make sufficient requests from a certain part of the building before they will retrieve material. This is why it can take up to an hour for a paper to arrive after its original request.
Having seen the racks of bound newspapers, we were taken through to the Microfilm Department, which turns paper copies into microfilm for viewing. A row of men and women were diligently making microfilm copies of new and old newspapers. All acquisitions received after 1986 are now archived in this manner to preserve the originals. These are now not bound but placed flat into acid-free boxes. The Bath Journal from 1888 was one such newspaper I spotted getting microfilmed – no doubt saving the original from further deterioration. We turned a corner to see more staff with their irons – not for their clothes – but carefully flattening newspapers ready for microfilming. It must be hard to keep concentration in this windowless environment but their service and reputation is second to none. Most are local employees and live within a couple of miles of the library. After the microfilm negative master is created, library staff checks every frame by human eye to ensure there has been no mistakes or pages missing, a pain-staking task. The master is then stored in the basement.
A staff member ironing a newspaper ready for microfiliming.
I asked a question on items unfit for use, such as damaged newspapers, and what was the programme of repair to get them back in the catalogue? Unfortunately, there is no systematic plan to get the unfit items back into use. A bound volume costs around £500 to repair, compared with £50 to microfilm the contents. Given the impending move, I don’t expect the situation to change. It seems if you want something repaired in order to view it, be prepared to lobby vigourously in order to get it.
Before we returned to the reading rooms, an office adjacent has two big signs on its windows proclaiming “All football talk is banned in here”. I’d like to see the chances of this being adhered to with the forthcoming World Cup in South Africa…
The Newspaper Library’s days are numbered at Colindale. They have simply run out of space and the lease on some of the buildings is at an end. Therefore, the majority of the library’s holdings are to be transferred to a new purpose built storage facility in Boston Spa, near Wetherby in Yorkshire. The microfilm stock – a staggering 400,000 reels – will be located at the British Library in St. Pancras.
I was informed at the end of the tour that the library has plans to digitise 4 million pages a year for the next ten years in partnership with a private company to supplement its current digital holdings website. Because of copyright issues, the vast majority will be newspapers published before 1900. It sounds an impressive total but when you think that will only cover around 5 percent of its present holdings it’s a very poor return. Funding, as ever, stunts the growth of the digitisation programme. The current cost to digitise newspapers is estimated at one pound per page so 750 million pounds for the entire collection in this economic climate is out of the question.
This has repercussions for the 2012 move. If you wish to consult regional newspapers from the twentieth century after the library leaves Colindale, you will almost certainly receive a worse service than at present. It’s not even guaranteed that readers will able to view bound copies at Boston Spa so lobby your local MP to make sure it does.
Free tours are conducted every two months or so and are strongly recommended before its contents disappear to Yorkshire (the process starts later this year) and the building shut. It is not listed and its likely replacement is a housing development or University campus.
Whilst the longer opening hours in the new Central London base will be welcomed, one has become fond of the slow pace of life at the Newspaper Library, with staff bringing the volumes in barrows. It has a sleepy 1950s feel to the place that will be sorely missed.

Bill Whittaker has remained an enigma to myself as a Brentford F.C. historian and it’s pleasing after all these years to think this mystery is probably solved. Bill played for The Bees in their F.A. Cup campaign in 1945-46, and was the only post-war player that I didn’t have a date of birth for, but this may be solved thanks to some Kingstonian fans.
He is of interest to the project as he played once for the England amateur international side, a 5-2 victory over Wales at Whaddon Road in Cheltenham on 28 January 1939. The side that day was:
Whitehead G.K. (Bury Amateurs); Burchell G.S. (Romford); Ellis R. (Wealdstone); Lewis J.W. (Walthamstow Avenue); Whittaker W. (Kingstonian); Leek T.H. (Moor Green); Perkins G.E. (Cheltenham Town); Edelston M. (London University and Brentford); Clements B.A. (Barking); Gibbons A.H. (RAF and Brentford); Finch L.C. (Barnet).
In researching Bill’s background, I led myself up a blind alley in thinking Bill’s brother (also a Kingstonian player) was called George so knowing it was actually Geoff probably solved things in no more than 20 minutes flat on the internet.
Game selection is usually a selling point for all players, and we only offer casinos with extensive casino games collections accommodating all players, discover more now about the best games available.
I discovered a couple of weeks ago by chance that both brothers played for the now-defunct Nunhead football Club prior their spell at Richmond Road. The history of Nunhead, published a few years ago by Mick Blackemore, gives both brothers initials as W.F. and G.J. It noted in the book that G.J. was a “first class cricketer with Surrey”.
Armed with the new knowledge on his first name, I looked up the CricInfo website and Geoff is listed in the link below:
I then checked www.freebmd.org.uk, which is a free repository of births, marriages and deaths. The information is divided into quarters, i.e. January to March, April to June etc.
Geoff’s entry gives his mother’s maiden name of Tomblin. Searching all Whittakers with the maiden name Tomblin from 1912 onwards revealed the following:
Sep 1912 Robert L Northampton
Sep 1914 John P Exeter
Jun 1916 Geoffrey J Camberwell
Mar 1921 Florence F Camberwell
Now, the Kingstonian programme notes from the 1980s revealed that there was a third brother called Bob, who we can assume was christened Robert. The 1912 birth above seems to fit.
This website gives the maiden name for births after 1912, but I suspected William was older than Geoff. I now searched for “William Whittaker” born in Northampton prior to 1912 and we have one registered in 1911, called William Frederick (matching the initials in the Nunhead book).
A search of post 1984 deaths shows a William Frederick Whittaker, born 18 Apr 1911, and his death was registered in December 1992 in Andover. This, I believe, is our man. I will purchase the death certificate and try and find any close relatives from that to finally prove this mystery. I think there is a good chance Florence is still alive also.
Younger followers of football may be interested to learn that both England’s full and amateur international sides were awash with players from both institutions, especially prior to the First World War.
These books will be an important secondary source for the project.
Scholars of the game are advised to read Peter Young’s excellent article on England’s disputed games at full international level.
It’s interesting to note that when David Beckham played against Spain in the recent friendly international between the two countries, all the UK national press noted he equalled Booby Moore’s record of 108 caps.
Not so with FIFA, who has discounted Moore’s appearance for England at Wembley against the Rest of the World played in 1963. According to their records, he has 107 caps.
A similar situation arises at amateur international level too. A lot of old and new publications indicate that England’s amateur football team participated in the Olympic Games of 1908 and 1912, but this is incorrect. The FA’s website also declares “England” winners of the 1912 tournament.
The teams for 1908 and 1912 were in fact Great Britain, and photographic evidence in both tournaments show the team having Union Flag badges on their jerseys. It’s worth noting the 1956 Olympic campaign played as Great Britain – organised and funded by the Football Association – inlcuded only Englishmen due to the other home nations withdrew their support. History is destined to repeat itself for 2012.
In the book – England (1872 – 1940), Eire (1924 – 1940), England/Amateurs (1906 – 1940) – published by the IFFHS in 2000 – has followed the FIFA line. They also describe Great Britian’s Olympic games matches in 1920 and 1936 as “England amateur”, and to be afforded full international status although at the same time noting that Scots, Welsh and Irish nationals played in some of these matches.
Worse still, some of England’s amateur games played against France, Germany and selected European countries prior to 1950 have been given full international status by FIFA, and also in the IFFHS publication.
My book will not record the Olympic games under the England amateur banner and hopefully it will persuade the F.A. to alter their position on the Olympic games matches of 1912, which may be based on incorrect past publications in any case.
I am in complete agreement with Peter Young when he says in the aforementioned article that “The F.A. keeps the official records of the England team, not FIFA, and while FIFA may keep its own records in whatever manner it wants to, it has no authority or power to alter the F.A.’s own records of its own national team.
Put another way, the F.A. is entirely free to record the history of the England team and players according to its own view of that history, and FIFA has neither the authority nor the power to censor the F.A.’s view of its own national team’s history. “

BASF discovers new way to produce hydrogen fuelJuly 29, 2013
New hydrogen fuel production method could be a boon for industry
BASF, one of the world’s largest chemical companies, has found a way to produce hydrogen fuel that it claims is significantly more environmentally friendly than other methods. The new method could be a boon for the clean transportation field as it would mean more availability to hydrogen fuel and could lower the cost of this fuel’s production significantly. BASF notes that its new production process could also lead to cleaner industrial practices, such as oil refining.
Hydrogen continues to gain ground around the world
Hydrogen fuel is widely used throughout various industries. While hydrogen itself does not produce any harmful emissions when used as an energy source, it is often used to refine fossil-fuels and power industries that have some effect on the environment. Moreover, most conventional methods of hydrogen fuel production involve the use of fossil-fuels, which links hydrogen to carbon dioxide emissions directly, making this fuel relatively unfriendly to the environment. Despite some of the problems associated with hydrogen fuel, it has become a top priority in the auto industry as well as others that are looking for alternatives to fossil-fuels.
BASF to build new facility to demonstrate process
BASF has plans to build a facility that will demonstrate its new hydrogen production process. This facility is part of a $30 million project that is being backed by the German government, which has a strong interest in hydrogen and other forms of renewable energy. The system developed by BASF will demonstrate how carbon dioxide can be used as a raw material for various chemicals and fuels through its combination with hydrogen. BASF believes that its process could create a valuable new market for various types of fuel that can be produced through the process itself, especially natural gas, which may be extremely appealing to the U.S.
Hydrogen works to break free of negative stigmas
Efficient and inexpensive hydrogen fuel production has received strong interest from around the world for some time. Hydrogen is beginning to play a major role in the clean energy endeavors of many countries and has won a great deal of support from the global auto industry. Despite the victories that hydrogen has seen in recent years, it still receives harsh criticism due to the methods used in its production and stigmas concerning efficiency.

How Often Do Young women Hook Up in Dating Sites?
The study was conducted by simply asking folks who had utilized dating websites to take https://bestadulthookup.com/onenightfriend-review a study about their sexuality and dating experience. The respondents were asked a series of inquiries about their libido, relationship status, and love-making satisfaction. With all the growing demand for dating applications, it isn’t unexpected that these surveys have become increasingly common.
The study identified that 33% of women who applied dating sites reported having sex with their first come across. Additionally , 60% of women just who use Tinder said that these were looking for a potential partner. As opposed, 63% of couples got to understand each other through friends or myspace, and only 9% of women declare https://www.travelloverepeat.com/ they met all their partner in a bar.
The study as well noted that your hookup tradition has evolved while using the times. While it’s even now a little taboo, the thought of dating within courtship has changed into a more recognized style of person connection. The rise of dating apps and dating websites has brought world to this new phase. In spite of the social stigma of having love-making, people still want to meet attractive unknown people without diminishing their integrity.

TechUK president Jacqueline de Rojas has delivered the opening keynote address at the Digital Health Rewired 2020 Leadership Summit, highlighting the importance of fostering diversity in healthcare to ensure technology caters to the needs of the NHS and the people it serves.
Speaking at London Olympia on 3 March, de Rojas said that under-representation of women and minority groups across healthcare risked unconscious bias being built into new technologies, which posed a greater risk as the health sector becomes more dependent on new technology to cope with increasing demands.
“Unconscious bias is something we really have to look at quite carefully,” said de Rojas.
“The decisions in our lives are increasingly being made by algorithms that determine whether we get that job interview, that loan.
“We need to make sure that the people who design those algorithms are diverse and represent the markets they serve.”
De Rojas warned of the dangers of ignoring and accepting biases in technology design.
She suggested that if suppliers didn’t employ diverse perspectives from conception to creation, they would end up with “a sub-optimal product at best, and a truly awful product at worst”.
By way of example, de Rojas pointed out that crash-test dummies were designed for men until 2011, meaning women were typically more likely to be injured in car accidents due to design flaws.
She continued: “The health sector is increasingly dependent on new tech for innovation, efficiency and to support our ability to serve citizens at scale in the future. It demands automation and means we must keep up with that pace of change, and the demands on the NHS.
“If technology doesn’t work for all of us it will perpetuate the same biases we see today at great speed and great scale.”
@JdR_Tech what would AI algorithms make of the fact there are so few female and BAME board members? Would they embed the bias in the AI. Interesting thought to open #DHRewired20 pic.twitter.com/EN57obrUVK
— Ade Byrne 🇮🇪 🏂 🇪🇺 risk to society, esq (@AdeByrne) March 3, 2020
On the NHS workforce de Rojas noted that, despite having a predominantly female workforce, it still suffered a shortage of women in leadership roles, with black and ethnic minority (BAME) backgrounds particularly underrepresented.
De Rojas credited work being undertaken by the Shuri Network, which provides a platform to propel BAME women in careers in healthcare leadership roles, especially where they are “grossly underrepresented.”
However, she stressed that the only way to embed diversity into the workforce and wider society long-term, was to “facilitate open discussions and tolerant leadership teams to embrace it from the top-down”.
She also said that diversity meant inclusion across societal, regional and neurodiversity spectrums.
Hearing @JdR_Tech knocking it out of the park talking about how #diversity matters in health tech not just for the moral argument, but because this impacts on #patientsafety. And it's everyone's job. #DHRewired20 @NetworkShuri @CCriadoPerez @digitalhealth2 pic.twitter.com/xTQmGEVpsA

— Shane Tickell (@ShaneTickell) March 3, 2020
“One-off diversity efforts are simply not effective in creating an inclusive environment…. it is not the rise of robots we should worry about, but that we re-skill ourselves every five years or less if we are to thrive in a digital future,” de Rojas said.
“We are fortunate in the UK because we have the best of both worlds: a proud NHS heritage employing the finest doctors, nurses and medical teams in the word, who treat anyone, no matter their background and social circumstances.
“We are also proud to champion private companies, doing state-of-the art work.”
“The true potential of [the NHS] can be realised only when it has an ambitious and diverse workforce to match.”

After seeing Gauri Shinde's 'Take' on 'Dear Zindagi', we really can't wait to watch the film! And add to that the Alia Bhatt and SRK pairing. The two look so fresh and lovely on screen together. While King Khan says he is doing an extended cameo in the film, he feels the flick does raise some very important questions before the society very sensitively and without being preachy.
"I will specifically say that we live in a man's world unfortunately. We talk about feminism and women empowerment. The beauty of this film is that without being preachy, a bunch of confident women have made this film which says that whatever, wherever, with whom ever a woman does anything that is correct without being judgmental on the same. So I feel this movie will leave an impression on men too," he told during a press conference.
The 51-year-old has a reputation for taking up different and challenging role but his extended cameo in this film is one role he has never taken up in his 25-year glorious career.
"I am in an extended cameo in the movie. But even then, I feel I have never done such a role ever in my life. So I take this opportunity to thank both of them (Gauri Shinde and Alia Bhatt) for allowing me to be a part of this film," he stated.
Justifying his thought behind doing the movie SRK adds, "For me, being father to a 17-year-old girl and otherwise being person whose life and profession has been completely dependent on women, is the reason I am part of this film."
'Dear Zindagi' is produced by Gauri Khan, Karan Johar and Gauri Shinde under their respective banners - Red Chillies Entertainment, Dharma Productions and Hope Productions respectively. The film that stars Alia Bhatt in the lead also Angad Bedi, Kunal Kapoor in pivotal roles besides Shah Rukh Khan.
The film releases on November 25.

I have always loved statement jewelries, and wanted to make mine. But what is a statement jewelry?
Statement jewelry is something that is recognizable. Something, that reflects the world of its owner. Through the statement jewlery its owner shows her self, her style to the world. Wearing a statement jewelry means making a statement about one’s self-concept.
To make a statement one has to know what is her statement is, what does one to tell to the world. Vadjutka statement necklaces are soft but definite, free, brave but not reckless, they love to live and love to allure.

Just 10km west of Bolsward, MAKKUM is a very agreeable place, a collection of immaculate houses, church towers, and canals, cobbled streets and wooden boats that’s saved from postcard-prettiness by a working harbour. It’s long been a centre for the manufacture of traditional, high-end Dutch ceramics, and the town is a bit of a magnet for coach parties during the summer, as well as a year-round sailing centre. But it never feels overwhelmed, and the Tichelaar workshops, Turfmarkt 65 (Mon–Fri 9am–5.30pm, Sat 10am–5pm; t 0515 231 341, w tichelaar.nl), are worth a visit during your wander around the centre. You can have a look at the workshop out the back or just browse through the gallery-like shop, which is full of beautiful objects priced way beyond the reach of most people, before taking the weight off in its small Bakkerswinkel café.

Chef’s Table is one of my favorite documentary series. It gets to the core of the chefs behind some of the top restaurants around the world. The documentary series created a new spin off focusing on BBQ around the world. BBQ looks different in different parts of the world, but there is a common feature of fire. The people who master this type of cooking are often given the title of Pit-Master instead of Chef as they have a skill set that a Chef can’t match. Pit-Masters have an understanding of fire and food.
Want an adventure?
How about a bizarre adventure?
Then I have the thing for you!
JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is an anime series that was adapted from the manga of the same name. Each episode follows the lives of the Joestar family. They are a family gifted with powers. A family gifted with powers is never meant for a dull and boring life. Watch as each generation of the Joestar family has to decided to become a hero or something far darker.
It is a question of humanity if we are determined by our nature or by those who nurture us. If you ask a room full of people this question, you will get a variety of different answers. So how are we suppose to know? An anime series (that was originally a manga) called Blue Exorcist brings this question into focus as the lead, Rin, and his brother discover that they are the sons of Satan.
We all love our cop and crime shows. However, I decided to watch a documentary series in Netflix this time instead of my usual fiction crime shows. The documentary was interestingly based on the criminals that tried to get away. Have you ever heard the saying “If you do the crime, expect to do the time”? Maybe these criminals should watch this series to figure out that they always pay in the end.
Looking for a new anime to binge? Then I have your fix for you.
Sometimes we all need a break from the real world and enter a ridiculous story to escape. So why not check out the new Netflix series, Teenage Bounty Hunters? You won’t be disappointed.
The other day, I had a wave of nostalgia hit me. It was while I was scrolling through the web looking for a new anime that I stumbled onto an old friend. An old friend that was a manga I read during my middle school years, and was making its reappearance again.
Sometimes we all need a few tips and tricks to help us in the kitchen. Even having some master recipes under our belt would be helpful. I am an amateur cook and no where near perfecting it. I am still taking baby steps but I am still trying. Until then I have to rely on cookbooks for assistance. Hence my latest find and love in the cookbook section of my library, I highly recommend my latest find for the amateur cooks out there like me called America’s Test Kitchen Cooking School Cookbook.
My Next Life as a Villainess is a light hearted anime show that bridges the popular reincarnation novel theme with the other popular genre called reverse harems. This show is funny and quirky for anyone that has been a fan of any otome games or series. It has all the elements that make it light hearted and witty. You will be entertained from start to finish, but that is not the only reason I wanted to talk about this amazing show. It is a marker of a progressive new world in story telling. How so? Let me explain.
The world always loves a good comedy, and combined with the elegance of a girl dressed for the 50’s then you more than likely will have a winner. Amazon proved this true with their hit, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

Osiris Therapeutics Inc. (OSIR) reported a second quarter loss of 13 cents per share, narrower than the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of 15 cents. However, year-ago earnings were 5 cents per share. Revenues for the quarter came in at $1.7 million, below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $2 million and the year-ago revenues of $10.4 million.
Biosurgery product sales came in at $1.6 million, up 43% on a sequential basis.
Research and development (R&D) expenses declined 21.2% from the year-ago period to $4.1 million, mainly due to the completion of enrollment in the myocardial infarction study with Prochymal. General and administrative expenses declined 57.6% from the year-ago period to $1.4 million.
Osiris has made significant progress with stem-cell therapies. The upside potential to lead candidate Prochymal could be enormous. Prochymal gained approval in Canada and New Zealand in the second quarter of 2012 for the treatment of acute graft-vs-host disease (GvHD) in children. Prochymal is the first manufactured stem cell product to gain approval and the first treatment to gain approval for GvHD.
Besides being approved in Canada and New Zealand, we note that the product is available under an Expanded Access Program (:EAP) in seven countries, including the US. The company expects to launch Prochymal with reimbursement in Canada later this year. Osiris is working with regulatory agencies across the world to provide them with the information needed to approve Prochymal.
Osiris is studying Prochymal for several indications including Crohn’s disease, acute myocardial infarction, and type I diabetes, most of which are blockbuster indications.
As far as the Crohn’s disease indication is concerned, Osiris said that enrolment for a phase III study continues. An interim analysis of the study showed that one of the Prochymal dosage arms achieved statistical significance in the primary endpoint.
Meanwhile, the company completed enrolling patients in a phase II trial that is studying Prochymal for the treatment of severe myocardial infarction. Osiris presented encouraging interim data from this trial in July 2012.
Low Visibility on Sanofi Agreement
We continue to have low visibility on the status of Osiris’ development and commercialization agreement with Genzyme, a Sanofi (SNY) company, for Prochymal. Earlier this year, Sanofi, in its fourth quarter press release, had said that it has discontinued the development of Prochymal for GvHD. Osiris said that the announcement was made without its knowledge or advice.
Osiris’ President and CEO clarified that Prochymal’s development has not been discontinued. Although Osiris had not received any communication from Sanofi regarding the termination of their agreement, Osiris notified Sanofi that it is treating Sanofi’s statement as an intention to terminate the agreement.
According to Osiris, all rights to Prochymal will return to Osiris without the company being required to compensate Sanofi. Osiris believes it can pursue commercialization agreements for Prochymal with other parties.
However, following this announcement, Sanofi informed Osiris that it is not in agreement with Osiris’ interpretation of its fourth quarter R&D update.
The collaboration agreement with Genzyme was signed in October 2008 for the development and commercialization of Prochymal and another pipeline candidate, Chondrogen. While Osiris retained the rights to commercialize the candidates in the US and Canada, Genzyme gained exclusive rights to commercialize Prochymal and Chondrogen in all other countries, except Japan, where Osiris has an agreement with JCR Pharmaceuticals. JCR Pharmaceuticals holds rights to Prochymal for the treatment of patients with hematological malignancies.
On the second quarter call, Osiris said that the issue is now in the hands of lawyers. We expect investor focus to remain on the resolution of this issue.
Neutral on Osiris
We currently have a Neutral recommendation on Osiris, which carries a Zacks $2 Rank (short-term Buy rating). While positive on the approval of Prochymal in Canada and New Zealand, the lack of visibility on the status of the Sanofi deal is concerning.

A Connecticut man learned the hard way Wednesday that it’s illegal in Connecticut to shoot a black bear that wanders into your yard.
John G. Rocha, 82, of Windsor, was arrested by Environmental Conservation officers at his home when they were alerted by Windsor Police that a bear had allegedly been shot and killed on Rocha's property.
The bear, which weighed about 250 pounds and was between 5 and 6 years old, was allegedly shot by Rocha with a .30 caliber rifle after "apparently causing damage to Mr. Rocha's bird feeder" in a tree, officials with the state's Department of Energy and Environmental Protection said Wednesday.
The bear was accompanied by a younger bear, described by DEEP officials as a 1-year-old weighing approximately 110 pounds, which was unharmed. The younger bear was tranquilized and relocated to a wooded area of the state by DEEP officials.
Rocha was charged by EnCon with negligent hunting, in addition to the charge of illegally killing a black bear.
DEEP spokesman Dennis Schain said Wednesday that under state law it is illegal to shoot black bears, which is a protected species in Connecticut, unless it is acting in a threatening manner or poses a harm. He said residents who see bears in their yards or near their homes should call their local police.
According to DEEP, Rocha was "released on a promise to appear in Enfield Superior Court on January 17."
According to the DEEP, there have been 2 documented bear sightings in East Haddam and 6 in Haddam. Have you ever seen a bear in the area?


The first time Jamie Vardy was asked about Arsenal’s bid in the summer, I understood it.
I also understood it the second time.
By the third set of stories about his non-Arsenal move it was all getting a bit tedious so it is beyond boring now to hear him yammering on about it once again.
Yes, I know, the papers keep asking because they have all the imagination of a drunk gnat when it comes to what they should ask players when they get the privilege of interviewing them. This time, however, he’s promoting a book he has ‘written’.
Speaking on TalkSPORT, Vardy said, “I was in a hotel room for the Euros – you do get a lot of free time – and that time was spent thinking about every single aspect [of Arsenal’s offer], the pros and cons.
“It all came down to my head and my heart both saying ‘stay’.
“I personally think there’s a lot more to come from Leicester and I want to be a part of that.”
There is absolutely nothing in this interview that Vardy hasn’t already said repeatedly since he decided to stay at Leicester instead of moving to Arsenal, much to everyone’s relief here at Cannon Towers.
Yes, Arsenal wanted you, yes you decided to stay. You don’t then get to keep using Arsenal to raise your profile.
So please, Jamie, shut up. You’re starting to sound obsessed.

There is a lot of speculation over what is happening with Zale. Here are some of my thoughts:
As one vendor mentioned to me recently, the fact that Zale didn’t go Chapter 11 in January, when it had the most amount of cash, would seem to lean against a bankruptcy filing in the near future (despite what Internet polls say). And, as we’ve discussed, major shareholder Richard Breeden likely doesn’t want a filing, as that would wipe him out. Company spokespeople have also said that the company isn’t in danger of a filing.
Some knowledgeable people I spoke to predicted Zale should be okay until the summer, provided it keeps the banks on board. (They noted that only top managers know the real numbers; Wednesday’s results should make things clearer.) However, next holiday may be a problem, if vendors keep requiring COD to ship.
Ultimately, the company needs sales to keep it going, and canceling Mother’s Day and Valentine’s Day advertising doesn’t help. Most of the speculation I’ve heard is that parts of the company will be sold, specifically the Canadian division and Piercing Pagoda, which are considered the most attractive parts.
One thing impacting the company’s current cash situation: the presumably Breeden-engineered $300 million stock buy back, after Zale sold Bailey, Banks and Biddle for $200 million. The buyback was a bust, and the extra $100 million – not to mention the entire proceeds from the Bailey sale – would certainly be very helpful to Zale now.
This whole episode is turning into a real black mark in Breeden’s career of “activist investing.” When he started to buy large amounts of Zale stock, many hedge funds followed his lead. We’ll see if they still do that in the future, given Zale’s performance since he got involved.
One more thing: the $600,000 severance payment to former CEO Neal Goldberg definitely seems a little low, considering that other executives below CEO level actually received more than that not so long ago. While I don’t really object – indeed, in an ideal world, all employees would earn comparable severance – it is perhaps another indication of Zale’s problems.

text: This album features Gary Cherone on vocals, a horrible mistake made by the bands former manager: Ray Daniels who did nothing but harm for the band.Gary tries to sing like Hagar on all the tracks, don’t expect to hear any of his talent (clearly heard on all the Extreme albums). It is just horrible. Eddie’s playing is at it’s all time worst. It sounds like he is running on empty, the production was done by Eddie himself and some unknown producer who’s only credits were TV tunes, this shows horribly as the sound is just plan bad. Guitar solos sound dry and too uptight. bass is absent from the mix and drums sound muffled. The lryics and song structure is also a nightmare, with chorus, bridge and verse all sounding out of place. The lryics sound like some wacked out poetry from Cherone that should have never been turned into songs.The tour that followed featured Cherone trying to perform Hagar and Roth era tunes, it killed the band. Cherone recorded a second album with the band, but Warner Bros rejected it, leading the band to pursade Cherone to quitely leave. Ray Daniels was let go shortly there after, and the band is still trying to regroup to think their next move.

Museum founder David Wright was the son of a WWI veteran who himself served in the U.S. Marines during the Korean War. Since he was too young to serve in WWII, his recollections of the event were of his home front experiences growing up near Worcester, Mass.
Wright was an avid collector of WWII vintage vehicles, which he collected and restored over many years. He continued until he had over 50 vehicles, all totally restored and fully operational. By 1983 the E. Stanley Wright Museum Foundation, Inc. was established in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts.
Originally, the Museum was essentially a mobile exhibition, which Wright made available to communities around the Northeast for parades and military functions at venues such as the Roosevelt Museum and West Point.
While his collection was - and continues to be - impressive, Wright believed that it was imperative to tell the whole story of Americans' contribution to the war effort. As he began to develop plans for a permanent museum, Wright felt it necessary to document the great achievements of Americans on the home front, since it was their commitment to the war effort that played such a crucial role in the Allied victory.
In 1992 David Wright purchased an 8-acre parcel adjacent to Wolfeboro's Smith River, the former site of the Diamond National sawmill. On July 16, 1994 the doors opened to the museum's first visitors.
Since then, nearly 200,000 people have visited the Wright Museum. Some visit out of curiosity after having seen the M3A1 Stuart tank protruding from the building's facade. What they find inside conjures memories for visitors of a certain age. For families visiting the Wright Museum, its exhibits often spur conversations across the generations, allowing parents, grandparents, and children to contemplate the achievements of the Greatest Generation.
In short, the Wright Museum illustrates the extraordinary efforts made by ordinary people living at a time when the future of the free world lay in the balance. Americans of all ages and all strata of society pulled together and did their part.


Artists and community organizers from Chicago’s Wicker Park and Bucktown neighborhoods are unhappy with a decision made by Alderman Manny Flores’ office to whitewash a mural. The painting currently covers half of the 2300 block of West Bloomingdale Avenue. The decision comes after complaints to the office from residents in the condominiums across the street that the mural is gang-related and too “urban.” The wall includes work by several artists who reside in the neighborhood and have been working there for years, such as Melon, Rome, Monstrochika, Denz, Cove and Shipwreck. Melon grew up in Bucktown just blocks from where the mural is located. Also included is the work of recognized artists from around the country, such as COPE2, KET, T-KID and Thor.
Initially, the residents were presented sketches for the wall, including work with a graffiti esthetic. The artists where given the green light to begin work on the wall and used their own money to being the project—$3,000 was originally pledged to the project by both the condo residents and the alderman’s personal funds. To date, the artists have received only one-third of the pledge.
Initial complaints arose from the residents over sexual content in the first pieces that went up. Community advocates Stephanie Garland, an artist, and Mike Bancroft, executive director of Co-op Image, quickly responded to the complaints and used their own money to cover up and revise the content of the wall per the demands of the residents. After this set of revisions, complaints from the residents that the work was gang graffiti persisted, although none of the mural portions contain any gang affiliation, imagery or references. Again, the artists submitted more sketches, but the residents were not happy with them and strongly voiced their desire to the alderman’s office to have the entire wall covered. According to the alderman’s office there are no specific plans for the future of the wall.
Once whitewashed, the wall will likely attract actual gang graffiti and less attractive tags. Some community members are also concerned that the wall will be given over to commercial interests, a situation that alderman Flores says will not happen, stating the wall is for “community use.” Indeed, Mike Bancroft feels Mr. Flores has supported the artists and community organizers by being an advocate for the mural project during meetings with the condo residents.
Although the wall will most likely be covered within the next week, community members are encouraged to express their opinion on the issue at “Ward Night” every Monday from 5pm to 8pm at 2058 North Western Avenue. (Sara McCool)

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - By. Janelle Gurrero-Miguel
On almost a daily basis, fire crews rescue lost or injured hikers. Now there is a new website designed to lure people away from unsafe and illegal trails.
Hawaiii's Na Ala Hele Trails and Access Program launched its site on Friday with a new look and features to guide hikers to safer trails in Hawaii.
Users may allow the site to know their location and a map will pop up showing which hiking spots are nearest. It also shows the map of other trails throughout the state.
In addition, the Na Ala Hele staff have been uploading photos, trail features, and points of interest onto the new site.
The Na Ala Hele program teamed up with the Hawai'i Information Consortium (HIC) to revamp the site and make it mobile-friendly.
The updated site launched just in time for National Trails Day, which celebrates the popularity of hiking and the thousands of volunteers who maintain trails across the country.

CONTACT: Rep. Patrick Snyder (608) 266-0655
MADISON – Today, the Assembly Committee on Jobs and the Economy held a public hearing on a bill authored by Representative Patrick Snyder (Schofield) that would create a state regulatory framework for the operation of micro markets, an emerging service industry in Wisconsin. Micro markets are indoor, unstaffed, self-checkout kiosks that provide food and beverage services to non-public groups of people, such as employees in a company break-room. Following delivering testimony in favor of his bill, Rep. Snyder released the following statement:
“Micro markets add a dynamic, healthy option to traditional vending machines. In order to address the increasing demand for healthier options, more and more employers are looking at including micro markets in their workplace. As this popular trend continues to grow, we as a state need to have the ability to address both future growth and future changes.
“My bill includes feedback from the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection as well as the companies that currently provide micro market services across Wisconsin. It is a responsible piece of legislation that ensures this new industry will be safe, widely available, and around to stay while protecting both the consumer and the retailer.”

Standish, Greater Manchester facts for kids
Quick facts for kidsStandish
The Church of St Wilfrid, Standish, from Market Place, with well in foreground.
|OS grid reference|
|Sovereign state||United Kingdom|
|EU Parliament||North West England|
Standish is a town in the Metropolitan Borough of Wigan, in Greater Manchester, England. Historically in Lancashire, it is located on the A49 road between the towns of Chorley and Wigan, a short distance from Junction 27 of the M6 motorway.
Standish railway station was on the West Coast Main Line, but it closed in May 1949. Victoria Colliery has closed and has become a housing estate. The Church of St Wilfrid is a Grade I listed parish church, lying within the locality.
The name Standish is derived from two Old English words stan, meaning stone, and edisc, a park or enclosure. Its name has been variously recorded as Stanedis in 1206, Stanediss in 1219, Standissh, Stanedich and Stanedissh in 1292 and Standisch in 1330. Langtree was recorded as Langetre in 1206 and Longetre in 1330. A Roman road passed through the township.
Standish and Langtree were part of the Penwortham barony in the 12th century and between 1150 and 1164, Richard Bussel, Lord of Penwortham gave them to his brother-in-law Richard Spileman. In 1212 Thurstan Banastre held them and later they were held by William de Ferrers Earl of Derby, and then by 'the lords of Leylandshire'. The tenants adopted the local surnames, Standish and Langtree.
In 1896 the Wigan Coal and Iron Company owned the Broomfield, Giant's Hall, Gidlow, John, Langtree, Robin Hill, Swire and Taylor Pits. The largest of these was the Langtree Pit with over 540 employees.

Switzerland is incredibly popular with its ski resorts. And this is not surprising, as there are located one of the best winter resorts worldwide. But in addition to active recreation in the mountains, Switzerland can offer more relaxing holiday. If you like it, then we would like to introduce you The Thermalhotels & Walliser Alpenther, which is located in the center of Leukerbad, surrounded by the Alps of the Canton of Valais.
The General Manager Helmut Anzer has kindly agreed to answer questions made up by our Managing Director Vasily Maslov.
V.M.: Could you tell a little about location history of the resort?
H.A.: Of course! History of the location is really interesting. It has been long thought that the discovery of the mineral springs of Leukerbad and the settlement of its residents go back only to the 13th century. This could however be rebutted with finds from recent times and we know now that Leukerbad was inhabited later than the 2nd century of our era. And there are amazing historical facts. Traces from the Celts into the 4th century before our era are found here. But of course, who else other than the Romans used the thermal springs. Their commitment to hot springs here is confirmed by findings from the time of Vespasian and Diocletian in Leukerbad.
V.M.: This is really interesting. And what can you tell about resort sights?
H.A.: Oh, here is beautiful nature, as Thermalhotels & Walliser Alpentherme is surrounded by the impressive 4,000-metre high Valais Alps, at the heart of Leukerbad (1.411m height). And the complex itself consist of three buildings: the Grand Bain, our proud Maison Blanche (built 1645, first stone hotel in the region) as well as the Hotel de France (built in 1845) which was fully renovated in the beginning of 2018. They all have a long and attractive history by the way.
Additionaly, we have our own peculiarity – the 135 rooms and suites are spread between the buildings, which are connected by an underground tunnel to the Walliser Alpentherme.
V.M.: Wow, impressive! This is unusual and very comfortable. And what about hotel’s history? When your hotel was established? Who was the first owner etc.?
H.A.: The history of the founding of this place goes back to the past. In 1315 Leukerbad could be found as a separate municipality in documents and even then one spoke of the hot springs. From 1478 the first inns were built. When, in 1501, the new Valais Prince-Bishop Matthäus Schiner acquired the bathing rights and propagated the place on his travels throughout Europe, things went quicker and quicker. Probably also helped the descriptions of the thermal springs by Paracelsus, Sebastian Münster, John Stumpf or Pitctorius. Anyway, it set the first big tourist flow. Unfortunately, a considerable number of avalanches destroyed the infrastructure in Leukerbad throughout the 16th century. It was rebuilt, the source rights changed hands again and also the oldest hotel in Leukerbad dates from the end of this century. Namely, the «Maison Blanche», then the «White House» and today part of the Thermalhotels & Walliser Alpentherme Leukerbad.
V.M.: This is really long history, I guess it makes your resort even more attractive for tourists. Well then, the main reason of our tourists travel to Switzerland is skiing. So, why should they choose a resort where your hotel is located, and as a result your hotel?
H.A.: Definitely because of the hot springs. This is Leukerbad’s main strength. You have it 365 days per year. In Leukerbad 3.9 million liters of thermal water up to 51 degrees spew daily in a total of 30 pools. This corresponds to the richest thermal water occurrence of all Europe.
Even if we do not have the longest and biggest ski area in Valais, next to the ski facilities we can offer the wellness and spa treatments during the whole year.
If you are exhausted of skiing, you can jump into the thermal water, which is rich in minerals and trace elements.
In summer more than 200km of hiking trails, mountain biking, Helsana Swiss runnig walking trails, monster scooters, rock climbing, via ferrata, tennis, paragliding as well as Golf.
V.M.: Sounds great, it’s not only pleasant procedures, but also very useful for health. But if you still want to go skiing?
H.A.: If your choice is skiing: at the Rinderhütte a wide range of slopes is starting from blue ones to black ones, from easy to extreme. Everyone will find his/her perfect slope to enjoy the spectacular and unique view of the Rhone valley. There are more possibilities than you might think of: About 50 km slopes, some of them already used during world cups, or a Snowboard Funpark which will stir snowboard lovers blood. The Torrent area is considered to be particularly snow-assured due to its lack of rocky slopes. Thermalhotels is located just about 4 minutes walking distance from Torrent cable cars.
V.M.: Now I have a desire to guest at your hotel! And what about services? I mean, how can you describe your accommodation facilities? What special offers/features do you offer in room services?
H.A.: The location of the hotel is very convenient, the hotel is located in the middle of the village, both cable cars, shops are in a few walking minutes reachable.
Since the hotel has its own spa area, the guests can enjoy it daily from 7 am till 10 pm or just use the underground tunnel to get to the Walliser Alpentherme, which is connected with each hotel buildings as I said before.
For family rooms and suites we offer parking and the baths of Walliser Alpentherme free of charge and for clients staying in De France by Thermalhotels 4* Minibar and the baths of Walliser Alpentherme are included. Free shuttle transfer all around Leukerbad is offered for all of our clients.
V.M.: By the way, speaking about families, what does the hotel offer for families?
H.A.: There are few offers for families:
— We have a play corner for kids and a rabbit family to spend some time with and to watch them.
— Easter and Christmas time, we organize some programs, like egg painting, handmade presents for Christmas, so they can be creative.
— Families can enter to the spa area as well to enjoy the water (suggested for 30 minutes with a break of 30 minutes, depends of the age).
V.M.: Very good. But what about young people? What does the hotel offer for them?
H.A.: Oh, we definitly have something to offer to young people. We have our special event, regulary around 9-10 times per year you can buy your ticket for the “Thermal night all inclusive”. It includes a welcome drink with buffet dinner, use of the swimming pools, Valaisan Sauna Village and the Roman-irish bath during 3 hours for a really favorable price. The thermal nights are structured and decorated according to the theme. I can say it must have!
Then, The Bar Grand Bain has diverse Cocktails and Drinks to enjoy in the summer time on our terrace and the staff serves drinks by the hotel swimming pool as well. If you prefer to have a coffee break or lunch, you can enjoy it in the Alpentherme around the outdoor swimming pool. For request we have yoga, personal trainer offers to keep the young ones fit.
V.M.: It seems like no one will be bored at your hotel! Also I would like to know does your hotel conduct some concerts of modern singers/bands/performances/workshop etc.?
H.A.: Certainly! We have very large and interesting program.
— Yearly there is the “Ländlermusik Week-end” in September. 16 different music formations are playing in 17 restaurants, locals. This year the closing party will be organized the the Bar Grand Bain.
— The International Literature Festival is placed every year in the Walliser Alpentherme, where over 30 authors bring the world of literature to the Upper Valais and present their works for three days in a dense and high-caliber program at the special reading venues in and around Leukerbad.
V.M.: That’s great! Maybe you have some new ideas about events?
H.A.: Yes, I was about to tell you about that. We are planning to have more of these kind of events for 2019, just as a music weekend with another kind of music to reach more clients with other interest. Since our seminar rooms can arrange events up to 260 persons, it would be possible indoor or in the Alpentherme/ Tennis place outdoor.
V.M.: You have big plans, I hope it will become true. Okay, let’s talking about guarantees. Imagine the situation: tourists came and the weather turned bad (avalanche, blizzard, or conversely, warming, everything started to melt and so on.) What can you offer for tourists as entertainment outdoor or indoor activities?
H.A.: Fortunately, this does not happen often, but in this case, we have something to offer our guests. The Walliser Alpentherme with its treatments and facilities (Beauty Institute, the full range of treatments based on local traditions and products, Ayurveda, Chinese Medicine, Fitness) offers a wide list of services just as well to enjoy and relax in the hot spring water or sauna. The Valaisan Sauna Village with its 300 m² was designed with great attention to detail and incorporates a variety of local building material like slate and weathered timber. Explore the village and its range of saunas, and experience the region’s unique charm and traditions.
Also Sportarena Leukerbad have as well a lot of option to be active indoor and/or outdoor. (Tennis, Squash, Badminton, Football, Minigolf etc).
V.M.: You have all for the perfect holiday. So, I have one last important question. What are the best means of transportation to reach the hotel from main airports and railway stations?
H.A.: Everything is very easy. You can reach Leukerbad by car from Geneve, Milan, Zurich and Basel airports. It will take you up to 2-3 hours. If you arrive by train (same time from any), at Leuk train station you have a direct bus up to Leukerbad(about 30 minutes drive).
From the bus station in Leukerbad (5 minutes away by foot from the hotel) we can pick up our guests with pleasure with no charge.
Additionally, the transfers could be arranged for the guests according to their needs.

In this tutorial I am going to show you how to create an 'outer-world' feeling using an experimental Photoshop process. My personal works often deal with the idea of hybrid realities and extra dimensions, so in this project I have created a situation where a person is experiencing an abstract moment that transcends the regular boundaries of nature and reality.
To achieve this kind of ambiance, I'll explain how to manipulate the regular laws of light and shadow by partly inverting your images, and merging positive with negative. I'll also make use of interesting textures, and use vibrant-coloured gradients to make sure the image leads the observer into a portal where they can drift off and dream in their own personal universe.
01 Open Photoshop and create a new CMYK document, setting the width to 25cm, height to 35cm and background colour to C:21, M:21, Y:21 and K:0. Now select your images: I opted for a human figure, a night sky for the background (taken from the Hubble Space Telescope) and a crystal texture, which I chose for its surface properties.
02 First of all invert your images (Ctrl/Cmd+I). If they are in RGB mode, invert them before dropping them into your CMYK document. You would lose lots of lighting information and end up with a much darker image instead if this was done in CMYK.
03 Temporarily add more contrast via a Levels adjustment layer so that you can easily select the background with the Quick Selection tool, and then create a quick mask to crop your figure from the background. Now go to Select>Refine and refine the mask.
04 Experiment with the colours of your inverted image until you're happy with the results. I added a Gradient Overlay from violet to orange, and set the Blend Mode to Hue.
05 Paste your background image into the document. Desaturate and duplicate parts of it, and set the Blend Mode to Lighten. Add a layer mask, and use different brushes to let the clouds from your background fade in front of and around and of your figure.
06 Enhance the contrast now by adding a Levels adjustment layer on top. For your figure, create a Hue/ Saturation adjustment layer with +100 Saturation. Next, use a Gradient and some brushes on its mask, so that the effect only applies to the upper part of the body. Give the figure a soft, painted shadow.
07 Duplicate your figure layer, and invert it to positive. Add a black layer mask, and paint with a soft white brush to reveal areas of the positive image. Do this partly over the face and arms, merging positive with negative for a more illustrated and plastic look.
08 Now add a locked Levels adjustment layer to bring in more light, but only apply the effect to the face and hands - making them stand out more.
09 To give some variety to the image, add a simple square and triangle shape. Now crop some elements from your crystal image, press Ctrl/Cmd+U, and increase the lightness so that you end up with a white image that you can cut, duplicate and integrate into your scene.
10 Next create a new layer, and go to Layer>Layer Style>Outer Glow. Select Screen for the Blend Mode, Opacity: 75%, Technique: Softer, Spread: 32%, Size 141%, and Range: 50. Duplicate the layer, but reduce the Size value of its glow, then use different brushes to paint on each layer where you feel an extra highlight might work well.
11 Source some additional night sky images and add them, setting the Blending Mode to Lighten, and adjusting the Levels so that all you have left are the glowing stars. Interesting results can be achieved with a Hue/Saturation adjustment layer, and by using some brushes to merge the two versions.
12 It's now time to create some dynamic particles for the image. Open Cinema 4D, and play around with a simple explosion effect. Render and place the images back into Photoshop, positioning a big cluster behind your figure, and two smaller ones behind the triangle, with each one desaturated.
13 Next, add some type. Choose a clear and graphical font - I've used Geometric - to create a tension between the type and the illustration. Arrange the letters in a way that is illustrative and experiment with positioning. Play around with some letters, like the 'O' here.
14 Now trace a black smear in Illustrator, and place it behind your figure in a way that supports the dynamic. I also used the smear to put some dirt on the edges of my background image.
15 Finally add the last few details, such as a white, brushed glow underneath your figure, and check whether you can improve any masking or shading effects. Have a play with the masking and Brushes palette, mixing different coloured versions of the image into one by adding more adjustment layers on top - and you're done.

It hardly feels like the season has started and yet we’re already at Monaco for the 6th round of the 2019 FIA Formula One World Championship. Coinciding with this glamorous weekend, Codemasters have released some gorgeous comparison screenshots so we can look at the differences between last year and this year’s games in all their glory. Stuart Campbell, the art director on F1 2019, said:
“After the big visual improvements across the board in F1 2018, this year the art team has focused on a number of circuits, including Monaco which is the flagship event in the F1® calendar. We have increased the building fidelity with higher resolution geometry and a lot of the previously textured elements now have a full geometry pass, which is perfectly demonstrated in turn one heading up to the casino. We’ve increased object placement and crowd density which provides more interest and realism and brings greater depth so the player gets a better sense of the atmosphere during the race weekend. From a surface perspective, new scan-based tarmac adds to the realism by giving better light response on the track surface. We are incredibly proud of the work the team has put in and we know our players will notice and appreciate the difference when they play F1 2019 in a month’s time.”
I’m sure you’ll agree that it really is looking stunning for the latest instalment, and we can’t wait to be racing around all the circuits in F1 2019, not just the tight walled street circuit on show here.
It’s all about the buildings in the background and how they’ve got so much more detail than last year and appear more lifelike.
In fairness, belting along the twisting track at over 180 mph it’s unlikely you’ll notice the change in geometry on the front of the buildings, but at least it’ll make the replays seem even more authentic.
The game releases on PC, Xbox One and PS4 on the 28th June, though you can get your hands on the Legends Edition a few days earlier.

Emergency Management Team Finds Hope Amid Havoc: Gonzaga's Response to COVID-19 Pandemic
Thoughts of a pandemic first appeared on
Emergency Preparedness Manager Cassandra
Stelter’s radar in December, and on the folks in the
Center for Global Engagement sooner as Gonzaga
had two students studying in China.
Gonzaga’s Emergency Operation Center (EOC)
opened Jan. 23 to address the COVID-19 issues in
Italy, where 160 Florence students were enjoying
their spring break, and on campus Feb. 28 to
support our efforts domestically, Stelter says.
“The Emergency Management Team, with
representatives from every major department
and division across campus, is here to provide a
collection of information to leaders on which they
can base their response decisions,” Stelter says.
New Risk Manager Deb Donning took her
baptism under fire, serving as point person on
the coronavirus outbreak in Italy. She worked
closely with Global Engagement Director Richard
Menard, GIF Dean Jason Houston and Enrollment
Management Associate Provost Julie McCulloh
in deciding to close down GIF and bring students
home before the epidemic there worsened and
travel was restricted.
“When we activated the EOC, our team worked
seven days a week, long hours, and remained
happy and ready to work every day, with grace
and goodwill,” Stelter says. She listed her
sections chiefs: Donning, Taylor Jordan,
Angela Ruff, Mary Joan Hahn, Dave Sonntag,
Steven Ponce, Wayne Shadd, Suzie Mize, Matt
Lamsma, Eric Baldwin, Julie McCulloh, Ken
Sammons, Deena Presnell, Kristiana Holmes,
Lisa Schwartzenburg, Becky Wilkey, and
the primary Policy Group comprised of Jim
Angelosante, Deena González and Thayne
McCulloh. “They deserve all the credit for this
effort being successful,” Stelter said.
Beacon of Reassurance
to Students, Parents
The Call Center, suggested by the EMT, created and
continually supported by Angela Ruff and Deb Donning,
has proven to be a source of calm for those seeking answers
about Gonzaga’s response to the pandemic. Established in
University Advancement’s telefund center, and staffed by
employees from UA, the Center for Career and Professional
Development, GUEST and a few other outposts, operators
answer direct calls and make a point to call back everyone
who leaves a message.
Callers are asking about lab classes, graduation, caps and
gown orders and hotel reservations.
“We live in California and we’re under shelter-in-place orders.
Do we have to be out of our dorm room by March 27?” No,
Housing offers an extension opportunity.
“We heard Washington is not letting anyone leave the state.
What if we gather up our stuff but can’t get home?” No,
Washington has not implemented that directive.
“May I leave my car on campus?” Sure, work with Campus
Safety and Security on what you need.
Many parents just need to talk and process. Every effort is
made to return calls not answered by a person in the center.
They’ve been very grateful. “Callers are wowed that our
people are calling them back,” says Ruff.
Other offices handling large volumes of calls are the
President’s Office, Housing, Benefits and the Parent and
Rudders in a Storm
Justin Marquis and the Instructional Design and Delivery team
helped get most of the 450 faculty up to speed on distance
delivery methods and 1,400 courses online in less than two
weeks. There have been great advantages to this exercise in
technology. For one, faculty may record their classes, post them
on Blackboard and students can watch as often as they need to
absorb the content.
Meanwhile, Information Technology Services has supported
the effort while also working feverishly to make work-from-
home a possibility for the campus community, thanks to our web
conferencing solution, Zoom, our cloud-based collaboration
platform, Office 365, as well as an improved virtual private
network (VPN). It was Fr. Bob Lyons, S.J., in 2017 and the board
of the Gonzaga Telecommunications Association, that released
funds to pay for Zoom for the Gonzaga community. “Little did we
know then what a difference that technology would make for us
today,” says Chief Information Officer Borre Ulrichsen. ITS offers
free laptop checkout to students, faculty and staff who might not
have a computer at home. And they’re providing an abundance of
tech support over extended hours, seven days a week.
“ITS and IDD have received a lot of responses from community
members, appreciative of our staff’s care for fellow employees.
We are humbled and grateful that users take the time to
recognize all the effort that goes into moving us to this new
reality,” Ulrichsen says.
First Line of Defense
“Our attitude is to protect everyone,” says Custodial Manager
Edin Jusic. “We had already started extra cleaning with the onset
of the flu season in October, cleaning surfaces more often, using
disinfectants. With the coronavirus outbreak, we intensified our
efforts, including sanitizing all door handles and stair railings many
times throughout the day.”
Jusic says his crews also responded to increased requests from
faculty and staff for service in their personal spaces. Now, with few
people on campus, they are taking extra measures, i.e. dusting high
window casings, refinishing floors, deep cleaning classrooms.
“We’ve been fortunate to remain well stocked with supplies,” Jusic
Many of the custodians volunteered their time to assist students
and parents with the move-out process.
What Happens When You Can’t Put Food on the Table?
You bag it up and send it home with students.
Zag Dining Services planned for many different scenarios, depending
upon the directives given by the University. “It’s our first pandemic, but
not our first crisis,” said Sodexo District Manager Pat Clelland.
The Cog Team mobilized and remained open for take-out meals and the
360 Grill remained operational for hot meals to go. The Marketplace and
Starbucks was an option as well, but with no self-service allowed. “Our
primary goal was to make sure our students, faculty, staff and Sodexo
employees were safe, well cared for and served,” Clelland said.
Clelland met an exchange student from Russia, hanging around
Hemmingson by herself, unable to go home. “If she was going to be here,
I told her we were going to be here with her,” Clelland said. Her facial
expression went from sad to ‘I’m not in this alone, I’m going to be OK.’
“Here’s a person lost in the middle of all of this. Our team and the rest of
the GU team will embrace her. That’s what we do, we take care of each
other in times like this.”
Caring for Employees
Lisa Schwartzenburg in the Benefits Office hasn’t had much rest. “We’re
in unprecedented times. We want to be flexible enough with employees
so that they feel safe and Gonzaga is taking care of them, but the
University is still operational,” she says.
Child care issues, care for elderly family members in high-risk categories,
familiarizing employees with how to best use sick leave, vacation time and
working on a job-shifting program are among her many tasks, and helping
people to be aware of their multiple benefits, like Teledoc, SupportLinc
and others. Go to www.coronavirus.eaptoolkit.com for an extensive
toolkit of resources to assist faculty and staff through this pandemic.
