Children may be back at school and vacations are over but it certainly felt like summer this afternoon. Bower Ponds (Red Deer, Alberta, Canada) was buzzing today. People were out running and walking, couples were having lunch, bikes went zipping by and children played on the playground. A high school class was even out on the water testing their canoeing skills.
We stopped by the park for a walk around the pond , and more importantly. a trip to the playground. Bower Ponds has an awesome playground, it is on rubber rather than sand, and has the equipment separated into areas according to different age levels.
After a play on the playground we strolled over the bridge and around the ponds. We watched the canoes, and then the littles spotted the ducks. The ducks were feeding away and the littles thought the ducks going upside down was just the funniest thing ever. We sat and watched the ducks for quite a while and then it was time for home. Hopefully we will have a few more summery days before fall truly arrives.

When Republican Michael Waltz takes his seat in Congress next month he'll be bringing his concerns about health care costs from his business background, veterans and national security from his military background, and space from both.
The lieutenant colonel in the Army National Guard with multiple deployments as an Army Green Beret officer and years as a national security specialist also served as chairman of a private equity-backed defense firm, Metis Solutions Corp., before running for Congress and winning in Florida's 6th Congressional District, succeeding Ron DeSantis.
Waltz's district, which stretches down the coast from St. Augustine Beach to New Smyrna Beach and then inland through Volusia County to northeast Lake County, has enough of the Space Coast and its economic and research reach to excite Waltz's ambitions for America in space.
"I really want to promote space as a thought leader, particularly in commercial space flight and the cyber space industry. Commercial space flight is ready to explode, truly grow, and I think the triangle from Daytona to Cape Canaveral to Orlando should really benefit from that," Waltz said Tuesday during a stop in Orlando. "That's not just an economic issue; that's a national security issue. The Chinese and Russians have explicitly stated in their national security strategy that they will eclipse the United States in the 21st century.
"I don't know that many Americans and Floridians truly appreciate how dependent we are, in our modern economy, on space," Waltz continued. "Over the horizon navigation; real-time supply chain that gets things from all over the world, from our Wal-Marts to our McDonalds, to our banking, stock trading; our GPS and how our agriculture is now dependent on GPS; it's all dependent on space technology. I want that on American technology, not Chinese and Russian."
As a freshman member, and as a Republican in what will be a Democratic-controlled Congress, Waltz is pretty far down the totem pole when it comes to requesting and receiving prime committee assignments. His will come after everyone else gets theirs. Still, the Science Space and Technology Committee is on his wish list. That committee currently has three Florida Republicans, U.S. Reps. Bill Posey, Dan Webster, and Neil Dunn, though perhaps only Posey is a lock to remain.
Waltz is one of five new members of U.S. House of Representatives from Florida, joining fellow Republicans Ross Spanoand Greg Steube who held Republican districts in the November election; and Democrats Debbie Mucarsel-Powell and Donna Shalala who flipped formerly Republican districts to help build the Democrats' new control of the House.
As such Waltz and his fellow Republican freshmen now must look at making impacts from the minority party. For Waltz, that includes hopes for seeking bipartisan deals on such things as health care reform – Waltz prefers the focus on health care costs – and infrastructure.
Yet if Waltz brings a specific expertise into Congress it comes from his 22 years in the Army and time in the Pentagon and the White House as a national security advisor, creating a skill set and knowledge base he brought into Metis Solutions. That background helped him attract the backing of the bi-partisan political committee With Honor, which put $1.8 million into his race, helping him defeat Democrat Nancy Soderberg. With that background, he hopes to reach the forefront in advocating legislation for veterans and exploring national security policy.
In his 2014 book Warrior-Diplomat Waltz expressed concerns about policy disconnects in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, based on what he saw in combat as a Green Beret and what he learned in policy discussions when he was a national security advisor in the White House of President George W. Bush, and what he's seen since heading up a private defense contractor.
"I think we lack a broader strategy in fighting the current wars that we need to fight. We haven't had a major 9/11 attack since 2001. We need to develop a broader strategy on how undermine the ideology of extremism, much as we did against communism, and how we did against fascism," Waltz said.
He proposes one idea up front: girls' education, and women empowerment.
"When you look at countries around the world where women are in power, and lead, in civil society and business and politics, they don't have an extremist problem," Waltz observed.
For national security discussions, he expects to work with Democratic U.S. Rep. Stephanie Murphy of Winter Park, who represents the neighboring Florida's 7th Congressional District. They worked together in the past, when she was a national security analyst in Bush's Department of Defense.
"We've already had a few conversations," Waltz said. "Of course, they [Democrats] have to figure themselves out in the majority, and we [Republicans] have to figure ourselves out. But certainly, by background, and by temperament she is somebody that I plan to work with. I've already [also] talked with [Republican U.S. Rep.] John Rutherford of Jacksonville, and [Republican U.S. Rep.] Ted Yoho. I think there's a lot we can do regionally, for north Florida."

heard. The little girl was frightened, and asked her father what it was.
"Only the wind," said he; "try to go to sleep."
But the noise grew louder and louder, and sounded nearer and nearer, for it did not come from the wind, but from a pack of wolves. At last the nobleman spoke to his servant on the box, saying :
"The wolves will be upon us directly ; load your pistols, and, as soon as they are within shot, fire and try to hit the leader of the pack, and I will aim at the second."
The howls of the wolves got nearer and nearer, at last they were close upon the carriage. The nobleman and his servant both fired their pistols. Two wolves fell dead, and the rest of the savage creatures stopped to eat them up, while the driver urged his horses to greater speed. In vain! wolves run faster than horses, and soon the pack were again close to the carriage. Once more the nobleman and his servant fired; but although again two wolves fell, others joined the pack, and rushed violently after the carriage. The travellers were still some way from the inn, which they hoped to reach that night.
" There is nothing for it," said the driver, "but to let a horse loose for the wolves to eat."
They stopped, unfastened the harness, and the leader cantered off into the wood, pursued by the wolves. They either eat him or he escaped, but it was not long before the pack were again surrounding the carriage. With sorrow and pain another horse was set loose ! and then a third !
The travellers were now not far from the inn; but the carriage was heavy, and the one remaining horse, though urged by the driver, and terrified by the howling of the wolves, could hardly get along.
"Sir," said the servant, "I see only one thing to be done. I will jump down, and keep the wild beasts off you for a time."
"You !" said his master. "You are mad! I cannot think of such a thing."
" Sir," said the servant, " we shall all die otherwise. I have neither wife nor child. Let me die for
And, before his master could say more, the noble servant had sprung off the carriage.
The one remaining horse tore on as fast as it could. The travellers heard the howls of the wolves and the report of two or three shots, and then there was silence. They reached the inn, put fresh horses to the carriage, took with them men armed with guns, and hastened back to the place where the noble and faithful servant had been left. Nothing was to be found but his pistol, for the wolves had devoured him.
On the spot where the hero died, his master put up a cross, on which was engraved this verse :"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
Poor little Poland! Part of it the Russians took, and part of it the Germans ! So, though a separate country, it is not now a separate kingdom. As you read in the last chapter, every now and then the Poles try to get back their independence; but, so far, they have always failed. They fight bravely, too. In one battle I heard that a young soldier, though mortally wounded, refused to be carried to a hospital. For two days he lay in a ditch ; and when he died, the reason of his refusing to be moved was found out, for underneath him were his colours, and if he had been moved they would have fallen into the enemy's hands.
The Russians are trying as hard as they can to turn the Poles into Russians. Even in the schools, Russian, and not Polish, is the language taught.
The Poles are rather dirty people. For one thing, I think that they must have lost all heart to clean up; and for another they have a stupid idea that dirt is wholesome.
Warsaw is the capital of Poland. It is not a very fine city. It has been too often taken and retaken by soldiers to have much beauty left. Many of the buildings are of wood. · In one part of Poland there is the largest mine in the world. You have read about our coal mines in England, but the Polish mine of which I am going to tell you is a salt mine. You go down into the mine by steps cut in the salt rock, or here and there by wooden ones. Some of the salt is very bright and
beautiful, and now and then the miners amuse themselves by cutting it into pretty shapes. Amongst other things, they have cut out a hall 100 feet long, which is used for dancing. It is lit by lights placed in candlesticks made of salt, which look just like glass. If you ever go to Poland by all means go and see the salt mine at Weileizka. Only it is such a dreadfully long hard name, I do not think that you will be able to pronounce it until you are grown up.
If you ever go. Weileizka. Only ... that you will
THESE are cold countries ; but boys would not dislike them, for there is such a quantity of good fishing and hunting. Cod, salmon, and other fish abound in the Norway lakes, and there is a great lot of game. Stockholm is the capital of Sweden ; Christiana of Norway. Both countries are governed by one king, the King of Sweden; but the Norwegians are allowed to settle a little about the laws of their own country. People travel in Norway in funny little carriages, only holding one person, and sometimes a little boy as driver. Sledges are also much used.
The food in Norway and Sweden is strange. A good deal of brandy and gin are drunk, not to make people tipsy, but to keep out the cold. If you went to an inn in Stockholm and ordered your dinner, you would most likely first have soup, and then raw herrings, turnips, radish, butter, different kinds of fish, and boiled beef. You would wash this mixture down with a glass of gin, and finish all up with a stick of celery. Most likely though you would not stay long in the town, and would push on into the country parts, to get some hunting and fishing.
Perhaps you would meet some queer stunted little men and women, not much bigger than English children. If you should, you may settle that they are Laplanders, or Lapps, as they are called for short. I hope, besides the ugly human beings who live in Lapland, that you might see the beautiful four-footed animals of the country. I mean the reindeer. Perhaps you would have a ride in a sledge drawn by reindeer.
Sweden and Norway are happy countries, where the people are not oppressed and kept down as in Poland.
Principal towns.-Stockholm, Christiana.
Religion.—Lutheran Church, as in parts of Germany.
English children ought to care about Denmark, because our Prince of Wales has married a Danish princess, and so, some day, there will be a Danish Queen of England.
Denmark is a flat, and not very pretty, country. It consists, as you will see if you look at the map, of a long narrow peninsula, and of a number of islands. Copenhagen, a very fine city, is the capital. The streets are not wide, but they are regular, and contain fine buildings. Copenhagen is defended by a strong fortress (or citadel), said to be so strong that

Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer Future Mobility Corporation, the parent company of Byton, has placed an order for a paint shop capable of dealing with 150,000 cars per year in Nanjing, according to an announcement by German mechanical and plant engineering firm Dürr.
The paint shop was ordered in the first quarter this year and production start for the paint shop is scheduled for October 2019, Dürr said. It is the first clear indication of the scale of production planned by the electric car maker.
Byton just released its second concept car, a sedan called Byton K-byte this week at CES Asia in Shanghai. The company said it is confident that it will meet its commitment to deliver the sedan to market in 2021.
In January at CES in Las Vegas, Byton debuted its first concept SUV car. The SUV will be manufactured at Byton's plant in Nanjing, and will be available in China towards the end of 2019, and in the U.S. and Europe in 2020.
In February, Byton partnered with U.S. autonomous driving technology firm Aurora to incorporate Level 4 autonomous-driving capabilities into Byton vehicles. The two parties announced to jointly conduct pilot deployment of Aurora's L4 autonomous driving systems on Byton vehicles.
After showing off their concept cars, electric vehicle players are now moving to the next phase of the race: mass production. Last month, Shanghai-based EV unicorn NIO just delivered its first batch of NIO ES8, a seven-seat electric SUV in Shanghai.
It is reported that Byton raised a US$500 million series B round from FAW Group, Chinese battery maker CATL, and Tsinghua University-backed Tus-Holdings Co.,Ltd. this week.

When you go to a restaurant, and get your bill, you pay what you see, right? No! In Canada, we give tips! On top of your bill, you usually pay a bit extra as thanks to your server. It can seem complicated, but it's not.
Typically, when you go to a restaurant, you tip 15-20% of the price of your bill. If you don't, it's considered rude. However, if the service was not good, then you should tip less, like 5-10%. You get to decide how much you tip, but remember, if you don't tip enough, it is considered rude.
When you get take-out, like coffee, fast food, or other foods where you pay at the counter, you do not have to tip. Often, the shop will have a little jar for tips, but you do not have to give them anything if you don't want to. Many Canadians choose to not tip in this situation. However, if you get food delivered to your house, like pizza, usually you give a $5 tip.
If you're at a bar or club, you should tip the bartender. This is an exception to the counter rule. Canadians don't have a set rule for how much in this situation, but usually you let them 'keep the change.' For example, if your drink is $4, or $4.50, you give them $5 and that will be enough. Otherwise an extra dollar will do.
Tipping can be expensive on top of already expensive costs in Canada, but it has a purpose. Tipping is used as a way to show thanks for good service. It also helps waiters and waitresses because their wages are lower than other workers. This is an important thing to remember when you are deciding how much to tip because some workers depend on tips to increase their low salaries.
Next time you go to a restaurant in Vancouver, enjoy yourself, and don't forget to tip!

"Over the past several years Digital Angel has worked closely with BPA to monitor and protect its regional fisheries," said Zeke Mejia, Chief Technology Officer of Digital Angel. "This contract extension is yet further evidence of the versatility and viability of RFID technology. We're thrilled to continue our partnership with BPA and through our technology, help safeguard a natural resource that is so crucial to the area."
Since the late 1980's, Digital Angel has teamed with Portland-based BPA and the federal Columbia and Snake River hydroelectric projects, to develop, manufacture, and install implantable passive integrated transponders in the native salmon population. Salmon represent a vital resource of the local community. The species' vulnerability to pollution, weather changes, and over-fishing, makes BPA's monitoring program a crucial element in their survival. Digital Angel's pioneering technology allows the BPA to effectively monitor the local salmon populations as they migrate through a river system that encompasses an elaborate network of dams and contributories.
Digital Angel's largest RFID antenna, located at the Bonneville Corner Collector, a bypass route developed to allow fish to move safely past the Bonneville Lock and Dam, is capable of electronically detecting tagged fish in a fraction of a second. When a tagged salmon passes through the monitored areas, its' transponder automatically activates, sending a unique identification number to the BPA's operations center. At the operations center, important information—such as the species, journey origin, and age of each fish—is meticulously logged. This information is essential to biologists and local conservationists attempting to maintain healthy ecosystems for the indigenous fish population.
In addition to the expanded contract with the BPA, Digital Angel recently announced new contracts with the Royal Malaysian Air Force and the Royal Netherlands Navy. Through its groundbreaking RFID and GPS location tracking technologies, Digital Angel remains focused on rapid growth, building a world-class organization, and driving shareholder and market value in the global marketplace.

8 Day Independent tour
This hiking holiday in the Bernese Oberland canton of Switzerland follows the Bear Trek (Trail ) and is available as a level 2-3 independent walking tour. Discover alpine Switzerland at its best with six days walking on the Bear Trek, crossing spectacular passes and scrambling along grand glaciers. The Bear-Trek passes through valleys and gorges, past the "Three Proud Switzermen" Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau to the beautiful Swiss holiday villages of Adelboden and Lenk. Well, actually you won't meet any bears on this trek nowadays. The name of this route comes from the time when the region was wilderness and the territory of bears and wolfs. Today hikers immerse into nature and breathe in the spectacular scenery. Crossing several passes on your way to summits, you are rewarded for your alpinist stamina by the imposing and beauty of the Alps! A number of alternative routes are available, if you feel tired or the weather suddenly changes. Often the daily stages can be shortened by covering some distance by public bus or chair lift.
Day to Day Itinerary
Meiringen-Grindelwald – 5.5 hours
You start at 10 am at the railway station in Meiringen. There you deposit your luggage and take the public post bus service to Rosenlaui. Hike over the Grosse Scheidegg Saddle (1962m) to Grindelwald, always with marvelous panoramic views of the three famous Bernian giants Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau. To avoid the steep decent into Grindelwald, you may take the gondola lift down from First or Egg.

I love that you have an ethnic clothes closet -- as a teacher, as someone who sews and as someone who hoards handmade. I have not actually made any ethnic clothes for myself or my kids, but I can totally see that happening in the future... hello, upright butterfly sleeves! The traditional formal garb for men is the Barong Tagalog and my son has one from when he was a ringbearer... he's gotten a lot of use out of that, and it is a sight to see a whole party of them.

Trigger warning: discussion of rape in video, thus the poem's title, "Rape Poem to End All Rape Poems"
I wouldn't say this is the best poem on the subject I've seen, as there are some pretty kickass slam poetry performances out there that I suppose would fall into the (as the poets in this piece say) "rape poem trope," but it's still damn good. I thought some of you might enjoy it as well, because by the end, I was pretty much just like:
I know there are some flaws in it, things that I might have done differently, like maybe adding in a line somewhere near their "until 'no' really means 'no'" about how only "YES" means yes. Still, though, I liked it, and I'll admit, they gave me goosebumps (as so much slam poetry/spoken word does). I'd love to hear what some of you think! Any other good suggestions for some kickass poetry?

Estudo sobre a ictiofauna do Rio Cabeça, um tributário do Rio Corumbataí com nascentes nas cuestas basalticas do estado de São Paulo
Cardoso, Rodrigo Torres
MetadatosMostrar el registro completo del ítem
This study investigates the composition and distribution of fish species from Rio Cabeça, a tributary of Rio Corumbataí basin. Fish samples and physical data were monthly collected at four regular sampling sites and during 12 months, thorough the channel of Rio Cabeça and on five additional collection sites. From the physical data, width, depth and water velocity (in m/s) of the river were obtained. The fish collections were made with help of: gill net, trawl net, other hand net and sieve. Species richness and abundance were designed thorough the constancy of occurrence of the species; the Jaccard similarity analysis of rarefaction; the species accumulation curve and a descriptive analysis of the collecting sites. The sampling sites showed physical characteristics as: Site 1, narrow but deep and with rapid waters. Site 2, wider and shallower and with more water spread. Site 3, mostly broad and deeper. Site 4, also broad and shallow, but containing rapids and fast waters. The samples include 4.532 fish specimens belonging to six orders, 17 families and 65 species. Site 4, showed the best richness and abundance, and the other three sites revealed to be more or less similar. In terms of constancy the site 4 had the highest percentage of occasional species, while the other three sites had the highest percentage of regular species. The analysis of rarefaction had shown a greater richness of species at site 4 and lower species richness at remaining sites. The species accumulation curve shown that a considerable proportion of fish species is present in this river as represented in this study. The Jaccard similarity analysis shown significant differences in the species composition through the four collecting sites. The results and the discussion suggest that the basaltic Corumbataí mountain formation may interfere with the distribution, composition and richness of the ichthyofauna. On the other hand, the Rio Cabeça with 65 fish species is an important tributary of the Rio Corumbataí. Finnaly this study outcome the necessity of more attention to ichthyofauna conservation at waterfall environments, where the specimens are exposed to illegal fisheries.

Title: The Sun and her Flowers
Author: Rupi Kaur
Publisher: Andrews McMeel
Publication Date: 2017
Edition: 2017
Pages: 248
Special Features: None
Summarization: A vibrant and transcendent journey about growth and healing. Ancestry and honoring one's roots. Expatriation and rising up to find a home within yourself. Divided into five chapters and illustrated by Kaur, the sun and her flowers is a journey of wilting, falling, rooting, rising, and blooming.
Review: A fan favorite filled with truth, dignity, and woman empowerment. It shows that woman are more than delicate flowers. Just like the first book that she published called Milk and Honey it speaks about her life and what goes on through it.
A high rated recommend for those who like poetry and want a quick read as well.

Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Whiskey
September 25, 2015 | 1 Comment
Designed by Studio MPLS | Country: United States
"Studio MPLS was commissioned by Jack Daniel's to strategically redesign their premium "Single Barrel" product line. The goal of the assignment was to more effectively communicate the handcrafted, meticulous process behind their Single Barrel whiskies and to create a design system that anticipates and allows for future product innovations from America's oldest registered distillery.
The entire packaging experience was modernized through thoughtful typography and iconography, innovative materiality and production techniques, and a balanced reintroduction of historical design elements.
Once the final brand and packaging elements were completed, the new design system was implemented to a variety of Single Barrel product extensions including gift and shipper boxes, limited-edition and seasonal varieties, on-site distillery merchandise, and more."

Collaborating with Manchester based graphic design company United Creatives, the team saw the opportunity to use the pack to tell more of the story about the production of Mr Black and the coffee craft that goes on inside the bottle.
"The first pack was just a placeholder – we whipped it up quite quickly – but then we won a few awards for it so it hung around a little longer than it should. Working with Chris and his team has been amazing. They really put the same craft into the outside of the bottle as what goes onto the juice inside. Chris has done some amazing work for clients like Brewdog, Fords Gin and Compass Box, so we knew he was the right man for us" says Tom Baker, director of Mr Black."
Nordic Kiwi Brewers

Designed by Nathan Parker | Country: Sweden
"Kerryn and Craig are two guys, born and raised in New Zealand and are now living here in Sweden. In 2014 they established Nordic Kiwi Brewers (NKB) with a very simple goal. Create epic craft beer that showcases the finest New Zealand hops. The brief was to create a unique graphic identity and packaging design that would communicate their journey and the concept of duality. Nordic Heart combined with Southern Soul. The main feature of the design is based on a black and white pattern, this developed using elements from New Zealand, Sweden and the ingredients that go into making beer. The resulting design is clean, fun and has endless possibilities for the future ahead."
O/O Brewing

Designed by Lundgren+Lindqvist | Country: Sweden
"During the Spring of 2015, high-end craft brewer O/O Brewing released three new beers: A rich-in-flavor pale ale called Pretty Pale Ale, a saison made with Pilsner Malt and Saaz Hops called Bohemia and Evergreen, is a flavorful IPA inspired by conifer.
For the packaging of the new beers, we revised and simplified our design system used for previous O/O labels and incorporated a 'pronunciation guide', to make the somewhat cryptic name easier to understand. We continued our collaboration with artists and designers, this time teaming up with Fredrik Åkum (Evergreen) and Alexander Palmeståhl (Bohemia), asking them to interpret the beer and featuring the artwork they produced on the labels.
Also included in the presentation is O/O's pop-up bar at the Gothenburg Beer & Whiskey Fair, designed by architects Emma Magnusson and Angelina Kjellén, for which we designed the signage."

"The thirsty vines stretch their roots downwards through the earth, opening up little paths through the red clay, our clay, the clay of El Masroig.
For the label design we were inspired by the name of the product itself (Rojalet sounds similar to red in catalan) and the unique red strata of the soil where the grapes are grown.
The strata tell the story of the soil, its composition and thus the character of the grape.In the labels, more than representing one type of soil, we aim to communicate through an abstract vision of this layer the wine you´ll find in the bottle: fresh, fruity, dense, wood, etc."
Sam Adams Infinium Ale

Designed by Adam&Co | Country: United Kingdom
"Sam Adam's Infinium Ale is a new style of champagne beer born from the mastermind collaboration between the brewers of Weihenstephan and Samuel Adams. Using only the four traditional beer ingredients, European heritage, and some solid American ingenuity, this beer defined a class of it's own. We were honored to design the packaging for this limited-edition celebratory libation, released each year around the holidays."

"Pirineos is a wine from Somontano in need of a new image. The natural surroundings of this winery inspired us to feature the figure of a horse as a metaphor for untamed and exuberant nature that, guided by the hand of man, can produce its best fruits.
"There is a profound impulse in nature. Like a wild and noble animal that we are allowed, sometimes, to attract and to form. Pirineos gives shape and expression to the spirited bravery of Somontano".
Fibonacci's Wine
August 24, 2015 | 2 Comments
Designed by Onice Design | Country: Italy
"In the XIII century, the Italian mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci discovered a sequence of numbers with a particular feature: each numbers is the sum of the previous two. The sequence (1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, etc) appears many times in nature, describing a wide number of biological settings: branching in trees, arrangement of leaves in a stem, the flowering of artichoke, the spiral of shells, the seeds on a sunflower. It is also widely used in design, geometry, architecture, computation, art."

This is a new, beautifully crafted and locally sourced Bitters brand from Jameson thatdelves into the brand's Irish roots and flavours, and is designed to give influential bartenders anddrink enthusiasts new ways to enjoy and experience the iconic whiskey brand.
With the rapid growth in Bitters brands, a certain "type" of Bitters language is quickly saturatingthe category. Pearlfisher's task was to create a visually distinctive look and feel for JamesonBitters, whilst ensuring we complement, respect and become a great companion to the Jamesonmaster brand."
Ariki Spirit

Designed by Redfire Design | Country: New Zealand
"Yes, the Vodka & Gin space is full of competition and dominated by global spirits conglomerates. So if your considering entering this segment you need to go in with your eyes wide open and have a damn good point of difference to carve your niche and get sales.
Enter Ariki. A new player based in New Zealand with a Pacific twist targeting a global audience. Ambitious – Yes! Inspirational – more so.
We loved the challenge to craft this premium spirit brand inspired from Polynesian origins. It was not your stereotypical brand that showcased sun, sea, sand and palm trees ( although we all love that- right) but one that resonated with sophistication, class, taste and flavour profiles that teased and aroused your taste buds."

We rebuilt the browser from the ground up, to make you brilliant at what you do
Browsers have become a de-facto standard for work, yet they were never designed for it (they were made for browsing the web, duh). A million open tabs, wasted time finding that one message from a month ago, always being logged into the wrong account... We asked ourselves: If we were to build a browser specifically around modern work, what would it look like?
Sidekick is designed around modern workflows, for people who care about doing great work, fast. It comes with advanced features that allow you to focus on doing your best work. Deep integration with your work applications. Powerful search. Keyboard shortcuts. Focus on one project at a time. Keep your most-used apps at your finger tips.
Sidekick is built around your work. So you'll be able to focus on what matters.
Stop messing with hundred of tabs. Sidekick brings all your apps together in a clean and organized workspace. You are in control of your workflow.
Sidekick is much faster than your current browser. It is optimized for work with a lot of apps. Better memory management, an automatic tab suspender and lightning fast interfaces.
We never track, store or sell any of your data. We don't make money through ads like other browsers. We even block data-grabbing ads and trackers from third parties, to protect your privacy.
Full compatibility with Chrome.
All your bookmarks, history, credentials & extensions.
We transform tabs into apps and provide them with superpowers, so you can take your productivity to the next level.
Keep all your apps and notifications
in view, access them via shortcut.
Add all your apps and messengers.
You can stay logged in to all your accounts simultaneously.
Cut number of your tabs to a bare minimum. Apps run in a single tab
by default.
Stay on top of which tabs are open. Easily search for recently-visited documents.
Need to find a document in Notion, or a channel in Slack? Use the search bar on any page to find exactly what you need right away.
Each workspace is a dedicated work environment with independent dock and applications. Your work-in-progress is saved as you jump from one workspace to the next.
I've 100% replaced Chrome with Sidekick at this point. I used to have 10000 tabs open at all times, I haven't had more than 5 open at once since I started using Sidekick.
Made the complete switch to Sidekick browser yesterday! Love it so far.
We're gradually opening up early access to professionals who want to be more productive.

Three Versions of The Nutcracker In Austin
Three Versions of The Nutcracker in Austin - and More Holiday Fun
The Nutcracker is an annual holiday tradition in most cities, and Austin is no exception. In fact, Austin takes the show to the limits with three versions of Clara and the Nutcracker/Prince.
Pick one or all three, as it's the only time of the year that the story hits the stage. We've got a few other December shows and events in Austin as well, that will kick the holiday spirit into high gear.

Gingerbread Village and Holiday Goodies
Four Seasons
Dates: November 25th through December 25th
Venue: Four Seasons Hotel
Address: 98 San Jacinto Blvd., Austin, TX 78701
Every year, the Four Seasons in Austin goes all out to immerse guests and visitors in the spirit of the holidays. The lobby area features the annual Gingerbread Village.

Dates: November 20th through December 29th
Venue: The Topfer at ZACH Theatre
Address: 202 South Lamar, Austin, TX 78704

Tickets range from $83 to $147, and shows are 7:30 pm with some 2:30 pm weekend matinees on the schedule as well.
Rooftop Ice Skating
Dates: November 23rd, 2019 through January 20th, 2020
Venue: Whole Foods Flagship Location
Address: 525 N Lamar Blvd., Austin, TX 78703

Ice Skating at the Plaza starts at the end of November and runs through mid-January. The rooftop of the original Whole Foods is turned into a rink so you can show off your lifts and spins. Or, maybe you can just show yourself that you can balance on two thin metal blades!
You can save $3 by purchasing your ticket in advance, and admission includes skate rental.
More Than The Nutcracker in Austin
The Nutcracker may dominate the Austin event calendars in December with three different versions, but there's plenty more to take advantage of in ATX.
From Christmas shows to festive brunches to light displays every where you turn, you don't need snow to get a good dose of Austin holiday spirit. Be sure to check our Austin Event Calendar for updated show listings and bookmark our Holidays and Gift Ideas section for additional inspiration.
