I have always loved photography, and since ! work as a computer programmer, digital photograhy gives me a whole new creative way to combine two areas I really enjoy.
I grew up in NH and moved to Long Island, NY in my early twenties, so when I get a chance to visit New Hampshire, especially in the fall, I go a little camera-crazy because I have missed the mountains and fall colors so much. Long Island has its own photographic treasures and the proximity to Manhattan is a photographer's dream.
Having a digital camera now gives me the freedom to shoot as much as I want, and to be as creative and experimental as I want.
I hope you will see photos from me that you enjoy and find interesting. I am proud whenever a person likes my...

Greenwich private investment firm Starwood Energy Group Global is selling its remaining 51 percent interest in a pair of wind farms to independent clean energy platform Skyline Renewables for an undisclosed amount.
Horse Creek and Electra wind farms, located in Haskell and Wilbarger counties in Texas, were built by Starwood and began operations in late 2016. Skyline will manage the portfolio after the transaction closes, which is anticipated later this year.
The agreement follows Starwood’s sale of a 49 percent interest in the wind farms to MEAG, Munich Re’s asset manager, in 2017. Terms of that transaction also were not disclosed.

As Ric Griffin is put to sleep ahead of urgent brain surgery, does his arch-rival Guy Self have him just where he wants him?
After a knock to the head revealed a cyst on his brain, Ric Griffin needs urgent surgery in Holby City in this episode (see our TV Guide for full listings). But he seems reluctant to go under the knife, mainly because he doesn’t want his good friend – acting CEO Max McGerry – to operate.
Ric (Hugh Quarshie), however, is hiding some worrying symptoms such as visual disturbance – he fails to notice an injured teen being thrown from a vehicle outside the hospital.
Meanwhile, neurosurgeon Guy Self (John Michie) is back at Holby for a disciplinary hearing after being suspended for smashing a mirror in the hospital toilets during an angry outburst.
Guy's adamant the incident wouldn’t have occurred if Ric hadn't repeatedly tried to undermine him that day – so he's annoyed when Ric shows up at the hearing! Ric claims he was worried recovering alcoholic Guy was going to operate while drunk.
When Ric says Guy's suspension should only be lifted if he agrees to have blood tests to prove he's not been drinking, Guy launches himself at Ric in a furious rage! As Guy leaves the room, he warns Ric: ‘If karma doesn’t get you, I will.’ Outside in his car, Guy has a relapse as he swigs from a bottle of whisky…
Later, Ric finally agrees to Max operating but, just as he’s put to sleep, Max is called away to an emergency. Guy overhears a neurosurgeon is needed in theatre… and that the patient is Ric! Will Guy cause his nemesis harm?
Meanwhile, cancer-stricken Essie wants to know why Sacha’s avoiding her – and why Frankie suddenly refused to take back baby Isla. Backed into a corner, Sacha’s forced to come clean about sending Frankie away because he wanted Essie to keep Isla for a while longer to give her something to live for. As an argument ensues between the pair, Essie collapses!
Also, Cameron's devastated that Chloe's thinking about dating again and seeks comfort… from Nicky!

County Commission race fought over public safety, controlling residential development
- Republican incumbent Bill Braswell running on his record after four years on the Polk Commission.
- Democratic challenger Bob Doyel says he wants to break housing developers' grip on the commission.
- Jean Reed was the last Democrat to serve on the Polk Commission. She lost in the 2012 election.
LAKELAND — The race for Seat 3 on the Polk County Commission could be decided on whether residents feel safe in their homes or threatened by new residential developments springing up next door.
Incumbent Commissioner Bill Braswell said he hoped voters would give him a second four-year term in office on the strength of his support for public safety.
Democratic challenger Bob Doyel, a retired judge on the 10th Judicial Circuit Court in Bartow, said he hopes voters will want to break the grip residential home developers have on the current commission by electing him.
Braswell has a powerful law enforcement ally. Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd has done videos supporting the Auburndale Republican that have appeared on the candidate’s Facebook page and in cable TV commercials.
“In today’s environment of calls for cutting funding for police, that’s certainly not on my menu,” Braswell said.
The incumbent cited his support for building new fire stations — four to be built in the county’s current 2020-21 fiscal year and four more are scheduled in 2021-22 — and for improving ambulance services.
Braswell attacked the Democratic Party and Doyel for supporting “defunding the police,” an ill-defined concept that has become part of the national debate over policing and race in the wake of Minneapolis resident George Floyd’s killing by local police officers.
“I look at the Democratic Party, and it’s for defunding the police. He’s a Democrat,” Braswell said. “It seems to be the mantra I hear on social media.”
Doyel categorically denied the charge.
“I never said I favor defunding the police, and I never would say I favor defunding the police because I don’t,” the Winter Haven Democrat said. “He made that up.”
As a former judge, Doyel added, his record on supporting law enforcement is clear.
“Sometimes I’m wondering if my opponent is really Grady Judd,” he said, referring to the videos. “Why they would chose to take that tack against a judge is beyond me.”
The Polk Commission has faced several controversial housing developments in recent years, including two in the Kathleen area and one off Crystal Beach Road in Winter Haven.
The commission eventually approved the Kathleen developments over the objections of neighborhood residents, who argued the densely packed subdivisions did not conform to the area’s rural character.
Crystal Beach residents made the same case against a similar development at a June 2017 commission hearing. They won that skirmish and a 10th Circuit Court decision two years later when the developer challenged the commission’s decision.
But the controversy returned to the County Commission in September when residents complained that staff had approved the Crystal Beach development despite those victories.
Land Development Director John Bohde told the commission on Oct. 2 the currently planned development met the criteria for “residential infill,” which did not require a commission review. Those criteria have been part of the county’s comprehensive plan and land development code for almost two decades, he said.
The dispute is back in court after residents filed a lawsuit.
Doyel criticized the lack of leadership by the commission and top county officials in allowing staff approval of the Crystal Beach project without seeking the commission’s input publicly.
“I think when the planning commission and the County Commission have spoken on a subject, staff ought not to be able to circumvent it,” he said. “Who’s in charge? Who’s in charge of the staff and can prevent that from happening.”
Braswell initially said he could not comment on the Crystal Beach development because of the lawsuit. But the incumbent acknowledged he had heard about the staff approval before it surfaced publicly in September and did not raise an objection.
“Staff’s job when a developer shows up with the first set of plans is not to tell him how to develop,” Braswell said. “The developer went to an alternative method of getting approval, and that was in the comprehensive plan and the land development code. Land use cases are complicated, and this one got a little more complicated.”
Doyel attacked the argument that the commissioners’ hands were tied by the law.
“That’s tantamount to saying ‘sh** happens'," he said. “It doesn’t have to happen that way. When people have property that needs to be protected and should be protected, something ought to be done. Talk about lack of empathy.”
Differences on COVID-19
The candidates also differed on the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic in Polk.
Doyel said he would support a mandatory mask requirement for the county and more money for testing and contact tracing among other measures to control the disease.
Under Braswell’s chairmanship, the Polk commission unanimously opposed a mask mandate after its two largest cities, Lakeland and Winter Haven, implemented them in July. Braswell spoke out frequently against a mandate, characterizing them as ineffective.
The commission unanimously approved a resolution encouraging wearing masks and observing social distance and other COVID-19 measures.
The commission in June approved $10 million for COVID-19 testing but later cut that in half when demand waned and used the money for other pandemic priorities. It did not allocate any additional money for contact tracing.
Braswell said he spoke many times with Joy Jackson, director of the Florida Department of Health in Polk County, about contact tracing, and she never requested funding help.
The department is a state government agency, not a county one, he added. Jackson told him the department has more than 50 people doing contact tracing.
The level of testing done was not limited by money but by how many staff people local hospitals and clinics could free up to work at community testing sites, Braswell said. That’s why the county cut back on the funding.
“I’m pleased with how it all went,” he said of the county’s COVID-19 response. “It’s not over.”
Braswell, 63, was born and raised in Bartow. He got a bachelor’s degree in agronomy from the University of Florida in 1979.
Braswell spent seven years in active duty in the U.S. Air Force from 1982 to 1989 followed by 15 years in the reserves. After active duty, he flew for Delta Airlines until 2008, when he retired.
He began a blueberry farm in 2000 and currently owns 60 acres in Auburndale and Haines City.
Doyel, 75, was born in Shawnee, Oklahoma, to a family headed by a single mother with nine siblings. They lived in a one-room shack without plumbing, electricity or gas.
Growing up in such humble circumstances taught him empathy for others, which he would bring to county government, Doyel said.
“In a government that lacks empathy, I have an abundance of it,” he said. “Whether it’s state, federal or local, concern about people doesn’t play into the game plan in all levels of government.”
Following graduation in 1967 from the University of Oklahoma with a bachelor’s degree in accounting, Doyel joined the U.S. Navy and served for a year in Vietnam ending 1969 in a support role in charge of food services.
After his discharge, Doyel got a law degree from Oklahoma in 1975. He earned the equivalent to a master’s degree in law from the University of Wisconsin in 1985 followed by a doctorate there two years later.
Doyel moved to Winter Haven in 1987 to practice law. He was elected to the 10th Circuit in 1994 and retired from the bench in 2010.
Doyel ran unsuccessfully for a local state House of Representatives seat in 2016 and for the state Senate in 2018.
Neither candidate has a decisive advantage in campaign fundraising, according to their treasurer’s reports filed with the Polk County Supervisor of Elections Office.
Braswell’s most recent report through Oct. 2 shows he had raised $86,672 and spent $54,063.
The same report for Doyel shows he raised $75,146 and spent $52,326.
Both candidates said they haven’t done much in-person campaigning because of COVID-19. They’ve limited their efforts to social and traditional media.
The election is on Nov. 3. Early voting begins on Monday.

Motion of no confidence in De Lille officially withdrawn
The DA's city caucus was under instruction from its Federal Executive to withdraw the notice, but councillors appeared to be split on whether to toe the line.
CAPE TOWN - A notice to table a motion of no confidence in Cape Town mayor Patricia de Lille has officially been withdrawn.
It follows a directive from the Democratic Alliance (DA)'s federal executive on Thursday morning, that the notice be withdrawn.
Councillor Marian Nieuwoudt who gave notice of the motion said it had been brought to her attention that there are other channels that can bring a solution to the situation involving De Lille.
She did not elaborate on what these channels are before withdrawing the notice.
But in a statement released shortly afterwards, the DA said De Lille would now be subjected to a disciplinary process that will take place over three days in August.
Upon De Lille's insistence, the prosecution against her will be led by an independent senior prosecutor and will be open to the media.
The DA's Solly Malatsi said: “The secondary hearing will take place during the course of August over three days. It will also be led by an independent senior prosecutor. It will be open to the public and media.”
Earlier EWN reported that the DA's city caucus was under instruction from its Federal Executive to withdraw the notice, but councillors appeared to be split on whether to toe the line.
There had been fierce behind the scenes lobbying around whether to go ahead with a motion of no confidence in De Lille as a full council meeting proceeded to deal with the business of the City.

Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma this week (3 April) was interviewed by RFE/RL's Ukrainian Service. He discussed the opposition to his government and said that he did not intend to resign. Correspondent Askold Krushelnycky files this report:
Kyiv, 4 April 2001 (RFE/RL) -- Ukraine's President Leonid Kuchma's second term in office -- he was re-elected in November 1999 -- has been dominated by accusations arising from the disappearance, and feared death, of opposition journalist Heorhiy Gongadze.
Gongadze disappeared last September and later a headless corpse, thought to be his, was found outside Kyiv.
A former bodyguard of Kuchma, Mykola Melnychenko, says he secretly made tapes of Kuchma and his close associates after he planted a microphone in the president's private office. Some of these recordings have been published. They purport to have the president suggesting that Gongadze be kidnapped.
Kuchma says the recordings are fake. But they have fuelled mass demonstrations in Kyiv and calls by protesters and many politicians for Kuchma to resign.
Kuchma said in his interview with RFE/RL that the investigation into Gongadze's death has been marred by speculation and what he called many "dark stains" from the first days of the inquiry.
"We are completely open, please let's investigate the case together instead of doing what we have been doing until now -- engaging in blackmail, engaging in psychological warfare against Ukraine, against the state."
Kuchma said that all the facts were still not known and there was even a slim chance, which he prayed was true, that Gongadze was still alive.
He said that he did not believe that Melnychenko had made the recordings himself. Kuchma said: "I have grave doubts that Melnychenko was doing the listening. In my view, Melnychenko was an instrument who was exploited and them discarded."
Kuchma said that Melnychenko could return to Ukraine. He said: "I have said several times that we guarantee Melnychenko's safety, let him return. But he will have to account for his actions before Ukrainian law."
Kuchma said he would like to gaze into Melnychenko's eyes, but was certain that Melnychenko would avoid his look.
Kuchma said that he was not willing to hold a dialogue with the parliamentary opposition because it engaged in non-parliamentary and non-constitutional behavior. He said: "I am not going to conduct any dialogue with those forces which do not support the strategic road for Ukrainian development, which do not want Ukraine to be an independent country."
He also said that he was not considering resigning and rejected pressure for him to do so. He said he would certainly not make a sudden exit from politics the way former Russian President Boris Yeltsin had done.
"The language of ultimatums is not a language for speaking with government. I reject ultimatums and I'm not going to capitulate."
He also said that he would stridently oppose any pressures to transform Ukraine into a parliamentary republic rather than the present presidential one where the chief of state enjoys considerable power rather than merely figurehead status.
He said that he viewed a parliamentary system of government in present circumstances "absolutely negatively." Kuchma said: "It would simply mean the destruction of all of Ukraine. It is a threat to the very existence of Ukraine as a state."
Kuchma said that the Ukrainian parliament had failed to work properly and was disorganized. Kuchma added: "Today, in this epoch of transition what is needed is a strong executive government."
Kuchma said that nobody criticized France, which had a strong presidential form of government and nobody suggested that the United States should change to a parliamentary form of government
Kuchma said that, despite some problems, democracy was developing well in Ukraine. He said: "There are many signs obvious to the naked eye (that democracy exists in Ukraine). First of all the government is divided into three branches -- lawmaking, executive and judicial -- these are already signs of a democratic society. Others are that the constitution guarantees the rights and freedoms of individuals."
Kuchma also said that freedom of expression and a free press existed in Ukraine. But he added that, although the media was independent of government, that did not mean that it was independent of the influence of other individuals and groups.
Kuchma referred to the recent release from police custody of a popular woman politician, Yuliya Tymoshenko, who is an outspoken opponent of Kuchma and who he dismissed earlier this year from her post as deputy prime minister. He said he did not think that she was a future leader of Ukraine.
"I rule that out as of now. There is no woman in the Olympus (field of Ukrainian politics) who could attract attention with positive ideas, with constructive positions, with her work, with her devotedness to Ukraine and not her own interests."
Kuchma also said that he was not planning to dismiss Ukrainian Prime Minister Viktor Yuschenko, whom repeated polls show is the country's most popular politician and whom many would like to succeed Kuchma as president.
He said: "I have said many times now that I am not preparing to dismiss Yuschenko. If I had wanted to do so, I would have a long time ago."

Stephen Liptrap is president and chief executive officer of Morneau Shepell.
How many of us now use wearable technology to do things such as track our steps, or apps that help us count calories? There is no doubt technology is playing a growing role in the wellness industry to improve the lives of people.
At the same time, a darker concern has entered the conversation: people becoming so addicted to technology that they put their well-being and mental health at risk. And that’s not to mention the stress, anxiety and depression often caused by the posts, pictures and taunting of schoolmates, peers and colleagues for all to see.
But while caution is warranted, we’re not going back to rotary dial phones, fax machines or carrier pigeons. Digital life – and work – is with us to stay, and it’s up to us to curb its worst excesses.
But the opportunity I see is this: digital culture can enable what is known as digital wellness – using that culture to enable change that promises to make our lives better and at the same time reduce health care costs.
According to the Global Wellness Institute, in North America, well-being-related productivity loss is causing a lot of pain for employers, costing over $550-billion annually due to absenteeism and presenteeism (where the productivity of workers is affected by illness.) In contrast, a Gallup poll identified that a healthy employee is more productive, loyal and committed – missing 41 per cent less work and being 81 per cent less likely to seek out a new employer. Companies with highly-engaged workforces outperform their peers by 147 per cent in earnings per share.
Employees are looking for support that guides all aspects of their well-being. Employee assistance programs and medical benefits have done a fantastic job at reducing leave and getting people back to work. However, wellness programs have traditionally focused only on physical health, and target the converted and intrinsically-motivated individuals.
For an organization to reap all the gains associated with a healthy workforce, it must address physical, mental, emotional and financial health in an integrated fashion. Why? According to insurer AXA:
- 71 per cent of employees with physical health problems experience mental health difficulties;
- 40 per cent of employees with physical health issues experience financial problems;
- 66 per cent of employees with financial problems see their mental health affected; and
- 50 per cent of employees experience financial concerns affecting their physical health.
It’s a vicious cycle – and employers can help end it.
Digital technology offers employers an unprecedented opportunity to integrate new and existing health and wellness programs – creating a seamless employee-centred approach. An integrated wellness approach has the potential to reduce employee medical care costs by 25 per cent to 50 per cent, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control.
We can’t wait for our health care system to respond, considering its limited ability to innovate, long wait times and scarce resources. Instead, we owe it to society to strive for holistic well-being in our workplaces and as a duty of care for employees.
One way we can use digital culture to help is to engage the healing power of community. Strong workplace communities make employees happier and healthier, therefore more productive.
According to Harvard Medical School, wellness is contagious. Colleagues have a significant impact on each other’s health. If one employee sees another colleague embrace a healthier lifestyle – lose weight or quit smoking – they themselves are often influenced.
Digital communities amplify this behaviour. Aside from being fun, participating in challenges or campaigns creates a sense of accountability. The peer-to-peer dynamic encourages engagement and participation, helping to keep employees engaged.
Social networking allows employees to inspire, showcase achievements and humanize the workplace. It connects people across branches, offices and regions – pulling together teams in a way teleconferences and e-mail cannot.
Recognition matters. According to Forbes, 66 per cent of employees feel undervalued. OfficeVibe found that 65 per cent feel they don’t receive enough praise. Gallup reported that 69 per cent prefer praise and recognition over money.
Despite clear evidence of a problem, there is still a lack of recognition in the modern workplace. Humans care about the opinions of others. Not to mention the fact that encouragement is a powerful and gratifying motivator.
When employers create a culture of recognition, praise and celebration, they create an environment that encourages success among employees and managers. To succeed, build recognition into all levels of your organization. Use digital platforms and social media to regularly recognize success and nudge employees towards healthier choices. Set company-wide goals. Align incentive programs with positive social behaviour.
It is a common refrain at conferences to hear about the importance of work-life balance, and how technology should be used without it being at the expense of the employees using it. Employees are humans, not assets. They’re not cogs, but people with families, hobbies, interests and personal goals. To unleash their ingenuity and productivity, we must take their well-being seriously. Technology can help, but only if we use it well.

Why Attract Goes out
Crazy we feel the latest which have, the latest closeness, the belonging. New looking for try came across and there’s a safety inside knowing that it’s not going to get-off – it is as well as steady. We want the ones from love. We need to believe it is secure to offer ourselves more than, that people was gotten and not leftover established. We need to feel the person we like. We want to getting yourself close, as with zero range between all of us. We should understand the almost every other, to-be familiar and have the passion of the. You want to be comforted by their bodily closeness.
But in interest, we want something else entirely – some thing unstable and unknown. We require new excitement that is included with seeking out and you will training your you to the audience is trying has been trying to united states too. We require the fresh new adventure that comes with the mystery, the new suspicion as well as the unpredictability of this.
As the told me by Perel, the fresh new characteristics from a love that develop love – mutuality, defense, protection, predictability, shelter, responsibility to your other – would be the very points that have a tendency to smother appeal.
The hoping thoughts are never a politically correct one – however it is a vibrant one to and something i have earned so you can feel. Desire comes with a variety of attitude who make our very own casual, socially compatible selves gasp into inappropriateness of it all the – envy, possessiveness, naughtiness, stamina, selfishness. Too often, ab muscles points that stimulate all of our sex and you can the appeal during intercourse are exactly the same one thing we are going to push against once the bed is established.
I make the mistake out of perhaps not asking for what you’ll nurture all of our attract as i confuse it having selfishness. So rather we work off a location away from selflessness. The difficulty with this particular is that was can starve our attract. Attention from the its extremely characteristics are self-centered – nevertheless best possible particular selfish – the ability to remain in song into the self, while being with other.
The secret to interest lies in being able to remain linked towards the part of ourselves that’s powerful, enchanting, lively, sexy, mystical, selfish, whilst having the ability to getting good, considerate, socially suitable, responsible and you can recognized.
There is a period and you can a spot to completely engage all of our mind therefore we shall be aware of and you will see our intimate need and you may have the thinking that include focus. Discover a for you personally to put our in control, selfless area out and feel our very own wishing care about on the fullest.
Neediness and attract you should never are present with her. Absolutely nothing commonly destroy interest reduced than neediness. Not one person could be turned on of the somebody who are hopeless to own them otherwise who’s a hope of these as his or her caretaker.
Inside the dating, the greater linked we become, more responsible we and additionally be in addition to smaller ready i will be selfish – to allow go – from the visibility of another. Through the years i eradicate the connection towards part of ourselves that feel notice.
Desire comes to allowing wade sufficient to be able to fantasise, to assume, is entirely inside our individual lead and you may our own human body when you are becoming having another, however accountable for some other. It involves acquiring the cover to turn the main focus from our spouse to the self in order to care for our own sexual requires, and believe the dating continue to be indeed there when we’re willing to return. As a consequence of the girl browse, Perel have located many different ways to improve appeal.
Waste time apart.
We understand that one. Attention thrives in the lack. It’s anything we all have in common irrespective of gender, community or religion. Whenever we try apart, i change away from the day to day obligation we think to own (and you may share with) our very own companion and you can reconnect with that which is not familiar and you can exciting. I move from ‘having’ so you’re able to ‘wanting’. Interest are cramped because of the common. Having length we could getting secret, want and you may expectation – the newest hallmarks from attract.

Most wine lovers would overlook tastings which feature German wines. It’s actually quite sad, as I think they will really be missing out on an incredible learning opportunity! Because Germany is one of the most northerly wine growing regions of the world with very marginal growing conditions, the top wines wines amazingly showcase supreme physiological ripeness without any sense of heaviness whatsoever, because of how long the grapes hang on the vines in order to get ripe. In addition, this particular quartet features some of the VERY best winemakers in the world! Come on, be adventuresome and taste something totally out of the box.
From the Franconia region—mainly white-gray soils with gypsum bits and vinified DRY. There is no wine like this in the world….especially its delicate fragrance and remarkably light, airy, ethereal profile.
From the Rheinhessen region of Germany on a red slate hillside (Nackenheimer Rothenberg) rising from the Rhine River. The red slate (pictured to the right) creates a very different–more stony–bass versus treble–kinds of nuances in the finished wine. Plus the warmer (at least in comparison to the Mosel region) manifests more tropical/pineapple kinds of fruittiness. This is a wine ideal for Hawaii’s warm climate and local foods, PLUS, this estate WAY OVER DELIVERS quality for the dollar.
From the Nahe region, Helmut Donnhoff is one of the true icons of quality in Germany! He masterfully crafts wines of such power, depth, vinosity, yet with such refinement, grandeur & sophistication. Yes, he is definitely a force! BUT, it starts in the vineyard.
From the Mosel region, Bert Selbach is truly an unsung hero for me. He crafts such sheer, supremely light, airy & ethereal Rieslings done with such purity, style, finesse & class. His wines truly are like no other. Furthermore, because he is a direct descendent of the Prum family, he has holdings in some of the finest vineyard sites in the country, including this one, a personal favorite & only 2 or so “doors” down the river from Wehlener Sonnenuhr, which I think most people would agree is “Grand Cru”, if Germany had such a thing.

Erie County announced updates to the driving ban early Monday morning as cleanup continued from the deadly blizzard that hit Western New York.
County Executive Mark Poloncarz said that, as of 7 a.m. Monday, the driving ban was still in effect for the cities of Buffalo and Lackawanna as well as the towns of Amherst, Cheektowaga, Clarence, Evans, Hamburg and West Seneca.
“It is lifted for all other towns as of 7 a.m.,” Poloncarz tweeted.
The Orchard Park Police Department said at about 6:30 a.m. Monday that the driving ban in the town and village of Orchard Park was lifted. A travel advisory, however, remained until further notice.
Even though many areas in Erie County are no longer under the ban, officials urged caution from motorists.
The Town of Tonawanda, for instance, lifted its driving ban at 7 a.m. Monday, but advised anyone who “has to go out” to “exercise caution on the roads, especially as they approach and go through intersections.”
People are also reading…
The updated driving ban map comes after officials Sunday said they would revisit the ban early Monday.
It comes as no surprise that the driving ban in Buffalo remains for people who are not essential workers. Poloncarz said he didn’t expect the driving ban in Buffalo to be lifted Monday as crews continue to work to clean up the blizzard that stranded hundreds and left thousands without heat.
Gov. Kathy Hochul late Sunday said officials would like to see people stay home another 24 hours.
Travel bans were lifted early Sunday in Genesee and Niagara counties.
A travel advisory will remain in place in Niagara County, including in the cities of Lockport, Niagara Falls and North Tonawanda, the Niagara County Sheriff’s Office announced early Sunday.
There is a travel advisory in Genesee and Orleans counties.
Motorists are urged to use “extreme caution” if choosing to drive due to the continuing challenging conditions.
Authorities urge the public not to travel in areas where a travel ban is in effect. Conditions outside are life-threatening, and emergency vehicles have been getting stuck on the road.
“Please stay off the roads today. This is still a hazardous situation,” Amherst Supervisor Brian Kulpa said in a statement Sunday. “I understand it is Christmas and we have been stuck in our current location for days, but to best assist emergency response, please stay off the roads.”
We don’t know why, but DPW and law enforcement are reporting people are attempting to drive this morning, violating the Driving Ban, and are getting stuck, adding to the problems.
Unless you are emergency personnel responding to the blizzard, do not drive. It’s as simple as that.
— Mark Poloncarz (@markpoloncarz) December 24, 2022
A ban bars travel for anyone except emergency responders. Under a travel advisory, no unnecessary travel is advised.
The Thruway remains closed to all traffic from Exit 46 to the Pennsylvania state line. The entire I-190 and I-290 also has been shut down.
Traffic to Canada on the Peace Bridge remains closed, while the Rainbow Bridge and Lewiston-Queenston Bridge have reopened, according to NITTEC.
These roads also remain closed, according to NITTEC:
• Route 219 from Peters Road in Ashford to Buffalo
• Route 400 from I-90 in West Seneca to Olean Road in Aurora
• Route 5 from I-190 in Buffalo to Big Tree Road in Hamburg
• Route 93 from Route 5 to Tonawanda Creek Road in Newstead.
• I-990 between I-290 and Millersport Highway.

My soul lies at the bottom of a cold glass bottle,
I live my life full throttle conscious and wild,
With unfathomable sorrow in the bottom of my scorned black heart,
I play fast and loose with love and idle madness,
Its the fruit of my life that gets me through.
Everyday is like Russian roulette in my mind,
Everyday I take a sip but the truth gets harder to find,
It doesn’t exist at the bottom of a bottle,
Yet everyday I desperately search for the answers,
Everyday I fall just a little behind,
It’s an unwinnable game that I constantly lose
everyday I slip closer to the end with no light in sight,
Yet it’s the little fruit of my life that helps get me through.
Sometimes I feel like a god, sometimes I feel like a roach in a pool,
Sometimes I feel like a king, sometimes I feel like a fool,
Sometimes I feel like the very essence of life,
sometimes I feel like the darkest cold death,
But it’s the spark in my lungs, it’s the fire in my stomach,
The Uniqueness! of my essence, and the freedom of my will,
but I’m still just a slave with a bullet in my head,
I have to drench my soul and drown my burdens,
For now it’s the fruit of my life that gets me through.

Green or Blue?
I just picked up my Blue one last Saturday, and like most on here, can relate to your points.
The Cowl buzz just started for me yesterday- 6-700 miles in. No tank buzz (yet). How many miles did you have before you heard that?
The seat doesn't seem that bad, though probably haven't ridden more than an hour and a half with out a stop and stretch session. I checked out the seat mod, but it seems like there isn't a lot of foam where I sit, right at the back of the seat. I have an Air Hawk and a Sheepskin seat pad that I may try, though the seat is up-there for me as it is.
I've always run soft luggage on my bikes before. I have the Ortlieb throw-overs from Aero-stich that worked on the TDM. Also a set of the Chase Harper Sport bags that I used on the Bandit. Neither one works on the Versys. The short distance between the start of the pillion seat and the turn signals, as well as the grab handle placement and the lack of a rear rack, or even a spoiler, is what causes it. I ordered the SW Motech set-up, both rear rack hardware and Contour side rack mounts. Also ordered the Givi plx35's though I'm pretty sure I could run either set of soft bags with the additional length and structure added by the racks. Also the signal relocation. Twisted Throttle has a good return policy. If I get it all and it doesn't seem like it'll work I'll only cost me return shipping. No Scratches though!

The yarn definitely fades. … Acrylic yarn is not meant to be outdoors in this capacity and will quickly react to being outdoors. If the yarn bombing is not done with care, such as loose ends and more hanging from it, it will definitely become an eye sore really quickly.
Does yarn hold up outside?
We all know that regular yarn cannot handle the outdoors. The sun beats hard on the yarn and fades the colours really quickly.
How long does yarn last?
After being discarded, natural yarns biodegrade within as little as 5 months. (Wool is the exception, taking up to 50 years to biodegrade due to its density).
Does yarn fade in the sun?
Wool drapes will definitely fade after long exposure to the sun and you should use shears to help protect those curtains from any damage. … Also, if you wash your wool curtains, let them dry somewhere out of the sun before hanging them up again.
Can yarn get wet?
“Do not leave wet”: because like most things not designed to stay in water for long periods of time, yarn fibers will break down if continuously damp. … “Reshape and dry flat away from direct sunlight”: Animal fibers, especially wools, have memory– they keep the shape that they dry in.
Can you use yarn for gardening?
You can make your garden more inviting by using yarn planters. With the varying colors available in the market, you can blend your plants with the knitted planter. … To ensure their longevity, hang them on the trees, shrubs or on other garden structures.
Is cotton or acrylic yarn better?
Cotton yarn: Cotton is an inelastic fiber, which makes it slightly more of a challenge to crochet with than wool is. (That same quality makes it a great choice for specific types of projects, though, where you want the item to hold its shape!) … Acrylic yarn is a more-than-acceptable choice for beginners.
Does yarn need to breathe?
Don’t Store In Plastic Bags
Number one, yarn needs to breathe. So, don’t store yarn in plastic bags – at least not for the long term. Depending on the fiber, yarn can hold up to 30% of its weight in moisture without feeling wet. If you like to keep your yarn in easy-to-grab bags, opt for canvas or mesh bags.
Why is acrylic yarn bad?
Acrylic yarn is petroleum-based. It is made from vinyl acetate and methyl acrylate, both which are known as carcinogens which can be the cause of nausea and irritation in the eyes, nose, throat, and skin. … Other chemicals used in the process to wash, twist, dye and stretch the yarns are also toxic for humans.
What colors fade less in sunlight?
Different pigments are used in different concentrations so will persist longer. Black is likely to last the longest simply due to the concentration of dye (although it will stop looking “black” quite quickly). Yellow is normally the least dense.
Can yarn get old?
Most yarn is enduring and lasting, however, it is important to ask questions about how it has been stored. Buying old yarn from other enthusiastic knitters is usually a safe option since they will be aware of how to correctly store yarn. Incorrect storage can lead to moths, mildew, color fading, and brittleness.
How long does it take to fade a shirt in the sun?
Don’t leave clothing in the sun for too long. Usually two to three hours will do the job. If you want the item even whiter, try a few hours again another day. However, keep in mind that leaving things out for days at a time could weaken and damage the fabric particularly if they are sensitive fabrics.
Should I wash yarn before knitting?
I don’t usually wash yarn before using it. There are some actual benefits though, like with hand-dyed yarns that might bleed (this becomes a necessity if you’re working on a project with multiple colours) or yarns that are very ‘sheepy’ or ‘rustic’ and washing them will soften the yarn and let it bloom a bit.
What yarn will not shrink?
Cotton — made from the cotton plant’s boll fiber that actually protects the seeds and naturally helps with seed dispersal. It is one of the most common fibers used to make yarn with. Hemp — made from the hemp plant fiber. Hemp yarn won’t shrink or stretch and won’t pill.
Can you wash balls of yarn?
Wash the yarn. Use a warm – not hot – water. Don’t be afraid to use an extra-strong detergent or even dishwashing liquid (like Dawn). … After the wash, gently roll the yarn in a towel to remove excess water, then hang it to dry.


An opportunity for parishioners to discuss their thoughts on the Development Framework with the project team will be provided at a public drop-in session to be held at the Salvation Army Community Centre & Cafe on Nocq Road on Saturday 29th February 2020 between 10am and 3pm.

When it comes to dietary fat — if you follow my articles — then you know I’m a fan!
Healthy dietary fat — including monounsaturated, polyunsaturated, omega-3 fatty acids, and moderate amounts of saturated fat and omega-6 fatty acids — play vital roles in our health. From providing a clean, long-lasting source of energy to protecting our skin to helping our bodies absorb fat-soluble vitamins, this nutrient is a key player in overall health!
Just as there are healthy dietary fats and detrimental dietary fats — such as trans fatty acids — there is also healthy and detrimental fat in our bodies. One such unhealthy bodily fat is visceral fat — fat that accumulates internally, around organs, and within arteries. You can’t see it and it’s a bit hard to actually measure, but visceral fat is oftentimes more deadly than other types of bodily fat. In fact, visceral fat is so dangerous that it is oftentimes referred to as “active fat” because it can “actively” increase the risk of serious health problems.
Luckily, visceral fat responds incredibly well to both dietary and lifestyle changes. Switching to a plant-based diet that’s free of processed foods, hydrogenated oils, added sugars, and other chemical preservatives is a great start! Today, I’m going to focus on simple lifestyle changes that can drastically reduce the amount of visceral fat in your body.
Visceral Fat 101
Let’s begin with a quick rundown on what visceral fat actually is!
Visceral fat is a “type of body fat that’s stored within the abdominal cavity [and is] located near several vital organs, including the liver, stomach, and intestines,” and it also has a bad habit of building up in our arteries. How does visceral fat accumulate in your body?
Multiple factors play roles in the accumulation of visceral fat including lifestyle choices such as “poor diet, lack of exercise, and [chronic] stress,” as well as overconsumption of food, alcohol, poor sleep habits, and smoking. Genetics even plays a small role in visceral fat, yet researchers have found these other factors to far outweigh and influence this type of fat accumulation. As mentioned, visceral fat is one of the dangerous fats in the body that we want to keep an eye on. Since it surrounds our organs and accumulates in our arteries, visceral fat can have fast-acting and lethal health effects.
Visceral Fat versus Subcutaneous Fat
When it comes to “belly fat,” as many people refer to it, there are actually two different types: visceral and subcutaneous. As mentioned, visceral fat surrounds our organs, while subcutaneous fat collects directly under the skin, oftentimes on the belly, arms, and legs.
We are all born with some subcutaneous fat, yet there are a few factors that determine how much subcutaneous fat you have on your body including genetics, physical activity, and diet. People who are sedentary, don’t have much muscle mass, eat higher calories than they burn, or suffer from diabetes or insulin resistance are more likely to have higher amounts of subcutaneous fat.
Health Risks Associated with Visceral Fat
Researchers believe that visceral fat may secrete a “retinol-binding protein that increases insulin resistance,” which means the chances of developing diabetes or prediabetes drastically increases. It’s also been proven that visceral fat raises blood pressure quickly and collects in your arteries. These factors lead to all sorts of serious and life-threatening health conditions including heart disease, heart attacks, type 2 diabetes, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, and certain cancers, such as breast and colorectal cancer.
Lifestyle Changes that Reduce Visceral Fat
Visceral fat may be dangerous to our health, but it’s also reactive to healthy lifestyle changes.
Plus, lifestyle changes that help reduce visceral fat are also all-around good for your body when it comes to managing a healthy weight, decreasing your risk of certain health conditions — such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer — and helping to navigate high blood pressure and high blood sugar levels. Of course, these are just a few of the alternate side effects of incorporating healthy lifestyle changes — not mentioned above include increased energy, more stable moods, and even better skin.
Let’s take a look at some of the specific lifestyle changes you can make to reduce visceral fat!
1. Aerobic Exercise
Exercise is not only a boon for your overall health, but it’s also one of the most successful ways to reduce visceral fat. Yet, while any kind of physical activity is a great place to start, studies have found that aerobic exercise may be the most efficient way to target visceral fat reduction. Aerobic exercise is so effective that it has been shown to reduce visceral fat without the said person making any changes to their diet.
This is because cardio is great at burning lots of calories! With that said, a calm walk around the block won’t necessarily do it for you. Specifically, studies find that “moderate and high-intensity aerobic exercises [are] most effective at reducing visceral fat,” especially if you don’t plan on changing your diet.
Luckily, there is a slew of aerobic exercises to choose from that fit your personal exercise style including jumping rope, jogging (for beginners), running (after you’re trained), biking, and brisk walking (for long periods of time). If you live in an area where gyms are currently open for business you may consider swimming, trying a stationary bike or elliptical, or attending aerobic classes or circuit training classes.
2. Reduce Stress
We all know that chronic stress is not great for our bodies or our minds. Turns out that chronic stress is also a major contributor to the accumulation of visceral fat. How does an emotional response affect fat levels? Chronic stress “can stimulate the body’s adrenal glands to produce more cortisol, a stress hormone,” which in turn increases the storage of visceral fat. It’s not just about human chemistry either. Chronic stress also leads to “increase overeating, which in turn may worsen” the accumulation of visceral fat.
Reducing stress is all about pinpointing what’s causing stress and seeking ways to either manage or avoid those causal factors. If shelter-in-place has you down these days, consider incorporating self-care strategies into your day such as getting outside, exercising more, and limiting news, social media, and television intake.
Other proven ways to reduce stress including meditating, — try an app or streaming services such as Headspace, Calm, Glo, Inscape, Simple Habit, Beeja Meditation (daily sessions at 12 pm), Ten Percent Happier (daily meditation “sanity breaks” at 3 pm), and the Copper Beach Institute (various livestream meditation) — and gentle yoga practice, — such as these free YouTube-based yoga videos hosted by Adriene Mishler or Corepower Yoga who are offering 100 percent free on-demand classes.
You can also try distraction methods such as listening to new music, picking up a good book, or trying out some stress-reducing natural supplements such as lemon balm, omega-3 fatty acids, ashwagandha, or green tea extract — with a doctors approval of course!
3. Focus On Quality Sleep
Along with increasing stress and anxiety, poor sleep or not enough sleep has been found to “increase your risk of visceral fat gain.” Luckily, this is pretty easy to fix.
Simply try your best to increase sleep which has been shown to “help reduce visceral fat.” In fact, studies have shown this to be the case. In a six-year study with 293 participants, it was discovered that “increasing sleep from 6 hours or less to 7–8 hours reduced visceral fat gain by roughly 26 [percent].” While the idea of getting sleep may be easy, actually obtaining said sleep can be very difficult.
For those that struggle with falling asleep and staying asleep, there are a few tips and tricks that may help you out. For instance, avoid screens of any kind — computer, phone, tablets, or television — for at least a few hours before bed. Instead, pick up a book or you can listen to a book on tape, a podcast, or even music. Try taking a warm bath or shower closer to bedtime to wind down, keep strenuous exercise to a minimum, and avoid eating late or drinking alcohol before you head to bed.
If nothing seems to work, you can try taking melatonin or magnesium supplements with the guidance of a medical professional.
4. Incorporate a Probiotic
It may seem strange that probiotics are linked to decreased visceral fat, but the studies don’t lie!
For those that haven’t heard of them, probiotics are simply encapsulated or food-based sources of good bacteria “that are either the same as or very similar to the bacteria that are already in your body.” Bacteria is an integral part of a diverse and healthy microbiome, which plays major roles in your digestive health, mental health, and, basically, you’re overall health. While probiotics are found naturally in fermented foods such as “yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and natto,” the most powerful probiotics are generally found in supplements.
A few studies have found that “certain probiotics can help you lose weight and visceral fat,” by reducing “dietary fat absorption in the gut, increasing how much of it you excrete in feces.” Plus, probiotics are also known to help “promote higher levels of GLP-1, a fullness hormone, and ANGPTL4, a protein that may help reduce fat storage.” Basically, probiotics not only help you excrete more fat, but they also reduce the storage of fat and the chance of overeating, which leads to increased visceral fat.
This three-pronged approach could be seriously advantageous for those looking to decrease visceral fat in their bodies!
5. Intermittent Fasting
What you eat is incredibly important for reducing visceral fat — specifically, avoiding those processed foods, sugar, and alcohol — yet how often and when you eat may play just as important of a role! Intermittent fasting has become a wildly popular way to drop a few pounds, manage a healthy weight, increase muscle mass, and boost energy.
What is intermittent fasting? Basically, this is referring to a method of rotating “between periods of time that you eat and periods of time where you don’t,” and allowing your gut to rest for longer periods of time than standard American eating regimens allow. For instance, the most popular intermittent fasting — the 16/8 — requires a fast of 16 hours and an eating window of eight hours.
Studies have shown that intermittent fasting may have an effect on reducing visceral fat as it generally is a natural way to consume fewer calories, which has been linked to reducing visceral fat accumulation and storage. Make sure to speak with a medical professional, nutritionist, or dietitian before beginning an intermittent fasting plan as there may be health factors that play into the type of fasting you choose.

Clashes in Kashmir After Friday Prayers
Clashes broke out in parts of Srinagar, in Indian-administered Kashmir, following Friday prayers.
Angry protesters threw stones at Indian security forces while chanting freedom slogans.
Indian security forces responded with tear gas.
The situation in the region has remained tense since August 5. That’s when Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Hindu nationalist-led government revoked Muslim-majority Kashmir's decades-old special status guaranteed under Article 370 of India's Constitution and sent thousands of troops to the region. It is split between archrivals Pakistan and India, and claimed by both in its entirety. (AP)

I’ve been pretty harshly critical of the Harry Potter films over the years. Mostly they’re adequate at best, and just bad at worst. However, I maintained a minimal interest in the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them spin-off. My logic was that with nothing to compare it to, there was less potential for disappointment.
Boy was I off.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them turned out to be a far deeper, more mature, and more powerful story than I expected.
Fantastic Beasts begins with Newt Scamander, author of the book the film is named for, as he arrives in New York with an enchanted trunk full of magical creatures. This is a rather illegal thing to do, given the American wizarding government thinks rather poorly of fantastical creatures and general prefers to hunt them rather than preserve them.
And it doesn’t take long for him to run into trouble. When several of his creatures break free, Newt runs afoul of disgraced auror Tina Goldstein, who apprehends him for endangering the secrecy of magic. Along the way, he also becomes entangled with Tina’s sister, a boisterous mind-reader named Queenie, and Jacob Kowalski, a local muggle (or “no-maj” as the Americans like to call them) who has seen far too much.
Newt’s mishaps couldn’t have come at a worse time, either, as a string of magical calamities throughout New York have inflamed the already high tensions between the magical and mundane worlds. It doesn’t take long for the authorities to blame Newt and his animals, but he knows they can’t be to blame, and he and his newfound allies must work fast to recapture them and prove their innocence.
If I have a complaint about Fantastic Beasts, it’s that there’s this weird disconnect between the whacky and whimsical quest to wrangle Newt’s critters and the surprisingly intense geopolitical/magical concerns that end up forming the real meat of the story. It’s sort of two movies at once, and the one it advertised itself — the one about Newt and his animals — is a lot less interesting than the other one.
Similarly, Newt himself is kind of weak compared to Tina’s pure-hearted determination, Jacob’s humble lovability, and Queenie’s flirtatious charm.
There is something to be said for a hero who solves problems with knowledge, understanding, and compassion rather than brute force, and intellectually I appreciate what Newt represents, but the fact is he just doesn’t have the charisma or charm of the rest of the cast.
Come to think of it, this is kind of a hallmark of J.K. Rowling’s work. Harry himself was one of the least interesting characters in the Harry Potter books. Even in the Cormoran Strike novels, I like Robin and Shanker a lot more than I like Cormoran.
But I said Fantastic Beasts is like two movies at once, and it’s the other one, the one about the friction between magic and mundane in New York, that’s special.
What really impressed me about Fantastic Beasts is how incredibly heavy a lot of the themes it deals with are: segregation, conservation, religious extremism, child abuse, bigotry and what it does to people.
Part of it is probably down to the fact I didn’t follow the movie’s production very closely. I was of the impression J.K. Rowling had simply tossed out some general ideas and then gone home to cash her cheque while the movie studio did the rest. I didn’t realize she’d written the entire screenplay herself. That explains a lot.
I want to be even more careful with spoilers than I usually am here because I think Fantastic Beasts is one of those stories that’s much better if you go in fresh and watch it evolve naturally. I will say that it’s a very powerful movie, and that what the threat actually turns out to be is both conceptually brilliant and genuinely terrifying.
I also think the villain of this series has the potential to be much more interesting than Voldemort was. Not so much due to anything inherent to the character as the way the series is showing the rough edges of where the magical and mundane worlds meet in Rowling’s universe. Voldemort just felt evil for evil’s sake, but this character reminds me more of X-Men’s Magneto — someone with legitimate anger over the world’s injustices who has taken that anger too far.
The ending of the film is a little underwhelming in some ways — it’s what we in my family liked to call a “Voyager Ending” in honour of Star Trek: Voyager’s ability to always resolve any crisis in the last five minutes, logic be damned. But it’s not enough to spoil an otherwise excellent experience.
Overall rating: 8.9/10 Vastly better than I expected.
Also, now I’ve dug out my copy of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them to read more about the critters in the movie.


Your initial reaction to this idea may be one of disbelief. There’s no way society would accept such a device. Why would anyone want to implant this in their body?
Consider for a moment where we are right now. For decades Americans rejected the notion that they would submit to being tracked or recorded.
Yet, just about every American now carries a mobile phone. They’re so prevalent, in fact, that many consider it a “right,” prompting the government to actually provide subsidies to those who can’t afford one on their own.
Embedded in every one of those phones is an RFID chip that can track our every movement via GPS or cell tower triangulation. Moreover, those microphones and cameras that come standard on every phone can be remotely activated by law enforcement surveillance systems, a capability that has existed since the early 2000′s.
But as intrusive as these devices are, they are accepted as the norm by billions of people world wide. Not only that, but no one had to “force” them on us. We are, it seems, the masters of our own enslavement. And we pay top dollar to have the best tracking device money can buy!
Granted, one can simply disconnect from “the grid” by throwing away their cell phone. But, the direction these new monitoring technologies are moving coupled with continued government expansion of surveillance suggests that microchip RFID technology will eventually be non-voluntary.

Well I believe the general consensus is that the product name should be changed, the price needs to be around 75 bucks, and the product should be made in steel to make the audience feel better about the product. This is all great information that is very useful. I am investigating different manufacturing methods and I think I should be able to get the price inline. As for the name I would like to change it to Gearblock Lock, or Gearblock Axle Lock.
PS I had filed for patent about 8 months ago.

Launch of M2i Greater Paris Area, Île-de-France Mobilités innovative project
At the 2018 European Mobility Exhibition , delegates witnessed the launch of the innovative m2i project to which Cityway is a contributor.
This project, launched at a press conference by Stéphane Beaudet, Regional Vice President for Transportation and Richard Dujardin, CEO France of Transdev, prefigures the traveler information services of the future in the Paris region.
Cityway is lending m2i its digital expertise and investing in technology to invent the digital tools that travelers and transit authorities will be using in the future, with major challenges ahead in terms of technical issues, inter-modality and rider expectations in the Paris region.
The ambition of Ile-de-France Mobilités (IDFM) is to have trustworthy information in real time which encompasses all public and private transportation means. The m2i project is jointly coordinated by IDFM and Transdev, and is being delivered by 8 partners including Cityway. Every day, billions of items of data will be collected in real time, used and analyzed for the benefit of riders, the transit authority and networks.
m2i aims to create a trip planner application combining all mobility services, from buses to urban commuter rail, together with ride-sharing, self-hire bikes and carpooling. m2i will integrate real-time information and next-hour predictions for all transportation modes: public or private, collective or individual. m2i will also give an indication of traveling comfort: whether the bus is crowded, whether there are any vacant seats, etc.
The project will also supply an advanced transportation network management tool and a digital observatory for the benefit of public mobility policy.

Leaning on my elbows, my toes touched the lush, green grass. The hot sun peaked at the tip of my giant floppy hat and seeing the Colorado mountains behind the stage, the smooth sound of an electric guitar took my breath away.
2a.m. is early. Despite the renegade ambiance and stillness the middle of the night symbolizes, when an overzealous (and annoyingly) triumphant alarm sounds to remind me of the looming road trip, I am slightly grumpy. Trekking to Denver, Robbie (my night owl) and I snuggle yet again into the bucket seats of my SUV for another journey to the wild west. This time for a legend: Bob Dylan.
Arriving at the venue, the blanket was spread on the grass and we grabbed a delicious pilsner to settle in for a show.
Live music is magical. While the experience is different for everyone, I usually find myself in a fit of giggles because of the rich people-watching. (Gyms are also great for this. There was a guy pretending to give birth while doing bicep curls the other day. Oh mercy…)
In the haze of non-medicinal pot, were modern hippies a week past a shower, in 90s cut-offs and toting fanny packs. I’ve never seen anyone dance with a pizza box quite like these women.
While the interpretative dancing stood in front of us, the majestic sounds stole the spotlight and wooed me to my core. Wholly relaxed, the grass became my living room floor and I laid down to listen to the music. I closed my eyes and heard what falling in love sounds like.
Standing up to jive with Robbie for a few songs, the sky turned black and soon cold drops splattered from the heavens. While some shrieked and many more ran for cover, there we stood in the rain. Maybe we were ragamuffins in our own way. Maybe we didn’t mind the rain. We stood still as the world moved. The rain muted everything but the music.
There is something beautiful about rain. Whether it is cleansing, calming, or the inner peace one feels standing in the rain, we experienced a revolution just standing there listening. Melodies took flight. Minor chords lead to major harmonies. Beauty simply existed.
The rain was over as quickly as it started and the sun began its descent. Bob Dylan crooned and banged the piano at will soon after and laying under the twinkling stars with my love, we dreamed of our future. In whispers, we planned remodels of dream kitchens, our dream jobs, and living in the city.
Later on that night, Robbie and I along with his brother Simon and his dad sat on the patio to discuss the show. His dad lit up sharing stories of Bob Dylan shows throughout the years and silently I sat enjoying the glimpse into the love of music from the Thomsen men. While their laughs are different, their smiles are the same.
Also, floppy hats cause problems in photos.

'His ankle was fixed with a plate and a screw and he will remain in hospital for some days,' Bayern said in a statement.
Bayern Munich captain Philipp Lahm has had successful surgery on his broken ankle, the club have confirmed
'He will then need to protect the leg for several weeks before starting his rehabilitation.'
The Bavarians are already without injured midfielders Thiago Alcantara and Javi Martinez as well as David Alaba, Holger Badstuber and forward Claudio Pizarro. Substitute goalkeepers Pepe Reina and Tom Starke are also sidelined.
Bastian Schweinsteiger, who returned to team training days ago, has also not played for months.

The Beastie Boys were always vocal about their refusal to license their songs for TV commercials, but it looks like they’ve made a very justifiable exception. For the past couple of days, a commercial for the Rube Goldberg toy the Princess Machine has been burning-up the mommy-blog circuit, and it’s gone viral for a bunch of different reasons. There’s the distinctly feminist viewpoint, the direct appeal to parents who don’t want their daughters playing with Barbies, the gonzo inventiveness of the machine in the ad, and then there’s the music. The song flips “Girls,” the knucklehead anthem from Licensed To Ill, and turns it into a fired-up girls-rule song. My daughter loves it. Watch it below.
Here’s your dailyl reminder that the man who originally honked that song is married to Kathleen Hanna now.

Lately we have been wanting to share with you some of the projects we work on outside of the studio. We are all creatives here and are always working on something cool! I am going to start by sharing this quilt I designed and made with my Mom. She is a fiber artist as well and the two of us love getting together and working on projects. She has really been cranking out quilts and so she offered to sew this one for me! I knew that I wanted something minimal and geometric. I also thought it would be fun to experiment with achieving a variety of color values using indigo dye on Belgian linen.
I was really inspired by tile floors and thought it would be cool to have a blanket that looks like one! After I dyed the fabric my mom and I used the quilting technique called half square triangles to cut the shapes. Then we laid out the pieces together and decided where everything should go! Finally she pieced it together and quilted it using straight lines.
Voila! Hope you like it.
