Every room in your house serves a special purpose and getting the right lighting in place goes a long way in not just brightening up the house but also highlighting the unique aspect of every room. But given the wide range of options and the plethora of alternatives, making the right choice is often the only link between quality home decoration and a tight budget.
However without professional help and despite the long and extensive online self-help alternatives, getting the right fixtures and importantly attaining the right mix could often be an uphill task. It is all the more challenging if you are trying to tie it all down to a strict budget too.
The Professional Edge
Obviously the most pertinent question at this juncture is how does professional help in lighting installation help value add and why is it a better option to spend the extra dollars in hiring them rather than go for more expensive lights? Well, first and foremost you can advantage and trust the guaranteed success of the ultimate outcome with a professional firm like ours in charge of your lighting installation. Of course goes without saying that the right and experienced firm should be contacted. But there are some other advantages too.
Preparatory Work: Any quality lighting installation needs focused prep work for long-term benefits and a quality finish. A professional and experienced firm like ours not just values this key factor but follows it very minutely in every project that we undertake. The ultimate goal is to ensure that the lighting installations don't just look good but also last a long time and fully justify the expenses incurred in installing these.
Available Alternatives: There is a wide range of lighting option available today. We, therefore, strive hard and work closely with the designers and lighting specialists to achieve the right balance for your home. A big chandelier in a small room would look out of place and a small light in a big room might make it seem darker. Therefore we work tirelessly to get the right balance in place to ensure that your house is not just well lit but also appropriately lit with special emphasis on all the unique element that give your home decoration that special edge.
Cost Efficient: Lighting installation involves another crucial aspect. The cost involved in not just installing it also bit maintaining these lighting features over a point of time. It is always better to invest in a relatively more expensive lighting option in the first go instead of repeatedly changing it due to inferior quality or running up huge electricity bills due to lack of energy efficiency of the product used.
Connect With Us
Therefore, if you are interested in quality and energy efficient lighting installation, the easiest option would be to call us. We take you through the entire process in a cost-efficient but aesthetic approach that not just provides better lights in your house but also makes it appear brighter and better.

Comments on "If TRIZ is Such a Good Idea…"
Editor | On 13, Apr 2002
Editor Ellen Domb sent Brian Campbell" article to some of the other TRIZ Journal authors, asking for comments. Marco Aurelio de Carvalho posted it on the TRIZ e-mail list, and that got more interest. (To join the e-mail list, go to http://www.topica.com, search on TRIZ, and follow the sign up directions.) If you have comments on Brian" article or on any of these comments, please send them to and we�ll publish another group.
From Larry Ball, email@example.com
I am going to make a statement that I know is inflammatory because it is so extreme, but I hope that it might spark a little productive debate. The statement is this—Most people who end up using TRIZ are people who love to solve problems, and always have. These individuals are already constantly on the lookout for things to improve. In fact, they can't help themselves. The true search is not for students that can understand TRIZ, but those who are already motivated to solve problems, wherever they may be found. (NO, I'm not going to take my medication!!).
I can imagine a variety of groups that enjoy problem solving. Many are non-technical. Each group would have their difficulties learning TRIZ, depending on background and temperament. Engineers as a group tend to lean toward certain temperaments and backgrounds. However, we should not assume that most engineers love to solve problems. In reality, only a small percentage of engineers are motivated by the challenge of a difficult problem.
Although I am an engineer myself, I find that many engineers have difficulty learning TRIZ, even ones that like to solve problems. One reason is that engineers are taught from an early stage how to "optimize" trade-off solutions. Many analytical and software tools have been created for finding the best trade-offs. Engineers take great pride in their ability to arrive at "good" trade-offs. It is not unusual to hear an engineer, especially management, exclaim that "better is the enemy of good enough." It is difficult to find an engineer that believes that he or she can have his or her cake and eat it too. Hence, as Ellen has alluded to me, many people cannot tell a good solution from a bad one. I have concluded that engineers are among the worst examples of this. It is not unusual for an engineer to put off the resolution of a problem to a later day. The underlying problem is patient and will later manifest itself, usually during development or qualification of the product or in the next generation product. Compromise solutions are much more risky than most engineers will admit. The conclusion of this is that technical people need to be taught the difference between a good solution and a bad solution and WHY one is "good" and the other is "bad".
On the bright side, I am beginning to have some success teaching TRIZ to non-technical and technical people. The teaching approach is to begin with a simplified process, which uses elements of the full-blown process but is complete enough to provide practical, yet ideal, solutions. Thus, the student is able to experience success from the beginning. In other words, the student is able to come to a complete solution which can be sketched up and later produced. Success begets greater motivation. As time goes on, the student is anxious to learn more elements of the full process. This method of teaching is widely used in teaching a variety of skills, such as mathematics, and how to play a musical instrument. Some TRIZ concepts are hard to grasp and will require time to learn. These should be delayed as long as possible.
Another approach that appears to be working is the concept of "Recreational Inventing". When TRIZ is taught as recreation (this works perfectly for people who love to solve problems anyway) it is natural to find projects all around. The student is encouraged to use a little time every day to improve something around them. In conclusion, the spread of TRIZ is primarily related to identifying individuals who love to solve problems anyway. Attracting and identifying these people, and then teaching them in a way that relates to their particular backgrounds is the main way that TRIZ will spread.
From Ellen Domb, firstname.lastname@example.com
My experience has been similar to Brian Campbell" in many areas. The one remark that I take exception to is "The engineer would be happier helping out the operators rather than being told how to solve the problem by a consultant." I have never seen engineers who were happy to be told anything by anybody! The most successful change management prescription for all kinds of team activities has been to include all the people who will be affected by the change in the team that decides what change will be necessary. So, if shop floor changes are being analysed using TRIZ or any other method, the engineers who will do the implementation should be part of the group that does the analysis.
This comment stimulated the following story from Marco Aurelio de Carvalho, email@example.com
I agree with you. In fact, I have an interesting experience concerning this. Back in 1993, just after finishing my B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering, I went to Germany and worked as a trainee at a German plant of a famous American company. There, I worked at "Vorschlagswesen" Suggestions Department). First, I spent 1 month helping with the bureaucreatic process of managing suggestions. As in most suggestions programs, suggestions were collected from all over the plant, pre-evaluated by the suggestions department, sent to concerned departments, evaluated there by specialists and adopted or not. As expected, most suggestions came from operators. If adopted, the author would receive a prize. If not, he would receive a copy of the evaluation and a "thank you for participating" letter. After the first month, I spent 5 months designing, building, testing and cost-evaluating promising suggestions. Do these tasks seem strange for a Suggestions
Department? I agreed. And I asked my supervisor about it. He told me that this was the only solution they found to overcome some engineers' resistance to changes in their designs (both industrial engineers' and engineering designers'). Today I would say they applied "extraction" inventive principle, because the feasibility evaluation was removed from traditional departments. Suggestions Department team would re-evaluate promising non-adopted suggestions and, if they were considered feasible, we would implement them and prove feasibility to concerned departments. It was then a lot more difficult to argue.
On the subject or TRIZ adoption, I agree with most of the author" arguments and would include the "complexity" one: perhaps traditional TRIZ has too many methods, heuristics and knowledge for the practitioner (at least for the sophomore practitioner). Besides being too many, these methods, heuristics and knowledge are not very well organized, yet. It is difficult to choose the best one for each situation. One could say: use ARIZ! – but ARIZ is quite complicated and requires knowledge of all traditional TRIZ methods. One possible approach to cope with TRIZ complexity is to concentrate on TRIZ basic concepts of contradiction, ideality, resources and system approach and try to use them for problem solving (this approach is also embodied in R. Horowitz" SIT method).
From: Penttsoderlin, email@example.com
Dear Collegues,
"If TRIZ is such a good idea, why isn't everyone using it?" A very good question! The Americans say that the selling starts when the clients says no!
However, you have to remember the classification of inventive levels by Altshuller. According the patent study he found that Level 1 inventions are over 30% and Level 2 over 40%. The Level 1 is not at all inventive, i.e. it contains only a technical task, which a qualified person executes without any doubts.
Maybe this is the basis: most of the time people have only routine type work. Consider the fact that routine work is done by 90% of people. Real R&D work is the rest.
Problems occur (according to L.D. Miles, father of Value Analysis) due to
Lack of information (people don't know enough of client demands or new technology, of their cost, of their problems)
Lack of ideas (people are happy to have one working solution and at the same they miss better ones)
Changed or temporary circumstances (there has been advance in technology, production methods, needs)
Habits and attitudes (mental inertia; new things mean more work! Nothing new under the sun!)
Honest wrong beliefs (we don't have problems! We can manage the usual way, actually we are working the same way as TRIZ!!!)
Fear of personal loss (everything new includes risks; people avoid risk taking)
These are the greatest obstacles in any development. There should be a real need for improvement: competition, cost, obsolescence, customer complaints, continuous harms in the process, etc. Everything can be improved.
When there are needs, people seek for tools. This is a pyramid of people: the most at the bottom don't see their need; the second level feels the pain, but don't take any steps; the third realizes that something has to be done and fast. The question is: how to find these people?
Fashion fatigue, TRIZ books, TRIZ courses, TRIZ is not a quick fix, We solved the problem but we didn't use TRIZ, Problems, and How to implement TRIZ?
I quite agree with your text. Especially the "How to implement TRIZ?" I changed the order a little. Here are some additional notes:
Important to involve one's best people. Yes, because there is no motivation amongst the people who are reluctant to try new methods and who don't want to develop themselves. To become a student means you are privileged. TRIZ is not for anyone. It is only for the best!
Line up problems in advance . Yes, there should be suitable projects prepared for the seminar in cooperation with the seminar leader. Avoid eternal or perpetum mobile-cases!
Course in isolation is a waste of time. Yes, people should work on their own projects (after dummy TRIZ cases which introduce the method) in their own premises, say 60 % of the seminar time. Propose follow-up to secure the implementation and payback of results.
Be patient, it might take a year or so before real results are achieved. Yes, people say that TRIZ is very good, but the treasures are in a very deep well. You should organize additional "Brush up-sessions", consultant projects etc.
Organize contacts. Yes, only successful references and peers can motivate your people and help you in the actual implementation.
Find out a sponsor. Get somebody from the top management who is responsible of business results and has enough budget means to finance the implementation and give you backup. Sell through him the idea of TRIZ to other managers.
Happy hunting!
From: Kalevei Rantanen, email@example.com
Short comments to Brian's letter:
1. "Cover less subject matter…, but teach it better and more thoroughly." (First golden rule of teaching in Engestr's book Training for Change). Or as Juran put it: "few vital" instead of "useful many". Five concepts: contradiction, resources, the ideal final result, patterns of evolution, and the 40 principles. Not more.
2. Phrase "If TRIZ is such a good idea, why isn't everybody using it?" If the speaker seeks truth, the answer is simple: Mankind needs much time to implement even the most simple, cheap and profitable things. Often, however, the question is rhetorical and emotional. In this case it remains necessary to repeat, again and again, the results. Altshuller formulated this as follows: "A man colliding head-on with the 'impossible' first exclaims before actually thinking, This cannot happen!" He may repeat this a thousand-or ten thousand-times before finally saying: 'But, what if…'
" (Izobretenia, Journal for the Altshuller Institute, Vol. I, p. 9).
From: Hugo Sanchez email@example.com
Problems that people face have a "distribution": most of them are simple enough that they can be successfully approached by trial and error. Relatively few problems are so important and interesting that they deserve the time and efforts that TRIZ consume.
People who face problems not always have the background in physics and other basic sciences, nor the right training to use TRIZ as a first hand tool.
Industry, education and government do not encourage deep studies of their problems. Instead, they prefer to ask for some kind of quick fix.
TRIZ someday (I hope) will be presented with several degrees of complexity. Basic principles are simple, as Einstein postulates in Theory of Relativity. Under these conditions, a "TRIZ thinker" person could be developed since basic education. But, is our educational system prepared for that? Is TRIZ prepared?

There is need for a cryptocurrency exchange account if you want to stay updated with the trends and innovations in the cryptocurrencuy industry powered by block chain technology. It is very easy to exchange your bitcoin for cash today, but exchanging bitcoin or fiat to other cryptocurrencies require you to have an account on some particular exchange that has the currency you need or that is reputable enough to hold your money.

Cryptocurrencies are digital currencies created to facilitate transactions over the internet. These currencies are not own or control by a central bank like the tradional currencies (naira,rand,CFA ,dollar,euro, and others). Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency created in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto,thanks to the block chain technology which is the technology behind all cryptocurrencies and crypto assets today. It was easier to exchange Bitcoin on any site back then without creating multiple accounts. Today with over 1000+ cryptocurrencies listed on coinmarketcap among others, there is need to create accounts on some major exchanges so as to stay in line with projects you are intereseted and to trade the best coins for profit making.

Here's a 'lil something for in that sexy little sequin purse! Nows, I am a novice element maker, so some of my creations are not perfect - meaning, in simple terms, that though they are functional, that you might have to monkey around a bit to get them to work perfectly to fit your own pics into. You will have to do a tad of work with this one to cut your pics to fit into the clear window. There was just no way to make it easy, as the clear window had to overlap the keys. Its not too bad if you use the selection tool! Also, the lens flare is included, so you will want your subject to be centered in the far right hand side of the window.
Yesterday, I went out to take a picture on the patio and I got all lined up w/ the camera and something SPROINGED out from my lens! A curved piece of metal lay on the cement, and immediately after, before my mind even had time to compute this, my brand new polarizing lens dropped to the ground and smashed! Well. I did call the store immediately, and they said I can return it for a 'no questions asked' refund. I'm impressed.
I heard this scripture yesterday, and it has really stuck with me. Its a very encouraging scripture, and every time I shared it with someone I experienced a new facet to it's meaning I had not applied in my mind and heart yet:
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."- Jeremiah 29:11
Keep Your Hose Fresh!
To extend the life of your pantyhose, and extend the wear, do the following: When you first open your new pantyhose, wet them, wring them out and place them in a plastic bag. Put them in the freezer overnight and thaw them before wearing them. (I bet that would feel good in the summer he, he!) Freezing your hose makes the molecules rearrange themselves in a tighter fashion which makes the structure stronger, is what I am told.

Lakewood residents may see signs around their neighborhood warning of the coffee from a 7-Eleven store on 14th Avenue and Carr Street after a customer says his coffee poisoned him.
Some customers say the coffee at that 7-Eleven has tasted odd in the past, but Dave Dugan says his cup had a chlorine cleanser in it.
"As soon as I started drinking the coffee … all my taste buds turned numb and my lips started to burn and I had heartburn all in my chest," Dugan said.
Dugan is an avid coffee drinker. At least he was until his morning cup left him with internal chemical burns and pain.
"Over time it didn't go away," he said.
So now he's posting warning signs around the neighborhood to let others know that he thinks the staff at the store cleaned the coffee maker with a powerful cleanser called Patco 155 and didn't thoroughly rinse it before making more coffee. He said the store manager is the one who told him about the cleaner.
"He told me this had happened before and it confirmed all my worst nightmares," Dugan said.
When CBS4 asked store management about the potential problem nobody wanted to comment.

Yeah, I saw that, Jesus, it's shocking stuff. I sometimes feel like something's slipped in the cogs of reality. Like today, story about no houses built, money spent, promises unfulfilled, everyone shrugs. Story about Rees Mogg not giving a solitary fuck, criticising, the victims of Grenfell, everyone shrugs. Story about Government suppressing a report into Russian attacks on British elections and referendum, everyone shrugs. Story about Tory worker and prospective parliamentary candidate undermining a rape trial for a mate and his tory bosses shrugging, everyone shrugs... That's just one random day. Something is wrong. Very wrong.
Tories editing BBC interview to make Keir Starmer look bad. https://twitter.com/BBCDanielS/status/1191732381306277890With obligatory non-defence from Tory tweeter at the bottom
Balls. They've been brainwashed.
Can't Labour use this against the Tories and to their own advantage? A viral video showing the original footage next to the Tory edit, the message being: you can't trust them not to misrepresent a simple message, how can you trust anything they say?
Unfortunately a pile of stats mean nothing to people who vote on personalities or converge around slogans (get Brexit done)You have to work out how their brain works then fit the argument around it.
Unfortunately, we live in a cruel and uncaring society. We haven't lived through 40 years of race-to-the-bottom Thatcherism by mistake. We've done it because that's what the public at large want. Sure, we could help other people, we could all be better off as a result but that's not as easy and cheap as punishing people less fortunate than ourselves.That is your biggest hurdle to getting a Labour government this election. People aren't voting Tory, BXP or Lib Dem because they've been tricked. They are voting for those parties because they like what they offer.
the Tories ... are proven to work
A series of government advertisements claiming to debunk myths about universal credit has been banned for misleading the public.The Advertising Standards Agency received 44 complaints about six newspaper adverts and a web page.The adverts included claims people moved into work faster on universal credit, which "did not accurately reflect the evidence", the ASA said...ther adverts claimed:"Myth: you have to wait five weeks to get any money on universal credit. Fact: if you need money, your job centre will urgently pay you an advance."This again, the ASA concluded, was misleading, saying it was not always made clear enough in the adverts the advance was a loan to be repaid within 12 months, or that the advance payments were not necessarily available immediately....And others said:"Myth: universal credit doesn't work. Fact: it does. People move into work faster on universal credit than they did on the old system."The ASA said it considered that readers would interpret the wording "move into work faster" to refer to secure ongoing employment, but in fact the 2017 study the claim was based on had included "people who had worked for only a few hours on one occasion during the relevant period"...
Isn't the reality more that lots of people know the Tories are a joke, but see they're a safe pair of hands, are proven to work, and make a proposition far more attractive than introducing unknowns and outliers into the mix?Or, put another way, isn't it more likely that most voters are conservative (in the original sense of the word) than unreconstructed Thatcherites and people just out to be nasty?

Also they trust them most to keep out brown people.
The DWP's own filings show that £225,000 was paid to the Metro to run ads now declared "misleading", "unsubstantiated" and "exaggerated". Almost a quarter of million pounds was taken off us to lie to us......Approached for comment, the DWP has not offered even an apology to the public, merely saying it is "disappointed with this decision". It further claims that "we consulted at length with the ASA as we created the adverts". I asked the obvious follow-up: how then do you explain the fact that you've breached so many of its guidelines? There was no response. Nor was there any response on whether the DWP is running any more ad campaigns on UC, as several sources both in and out of Westminster have claimed to me...
Typical hysteria from the usual quarters re: my Tories comment. The fact is, whethere it's pallitable or not, all most people want to see is their bins collected on time, there's food on the shelves in the supermarket, and that, should they lose their job, there's some kind of benefits system in place. That's it. All theses basic elements ar ethe Tories. This isn't anything to do with thinking the Tories are good or actively liking them, it's about understanding the thought process of the average functional adult. Most people aren't ideologues.They don't give a shit about Thatcher and probably couldn't even spell 'neoliberalism'. They just want to see the wheels of industry turning and people who can give them a plausible chance at self-betterment. It's really not any more complicated than that.N.B. for the truly thick who need it spelling out: I'm not advocating voting for the Tory party. I'm spelling out why people vote for them. I'll repeat that: I'm spelling out why people vote for them, not making an argument for why they should be in power.
People vote tory to keep their status quo. They have their property and an idiot yappy dog to protect it. I think this Thatcherite appeal is finally starting to crumble though as cuts and inequality hit harder and wider.

I joined the army when I was 17 years old. It was not compulsory for women, but it was for men, and at that young age I wanted to contribute for my country which had been at war for several years. I was fortunate as the two years that I spent in the specialist unit, were not in front line service. I was support and back up and spent many an hour talking with those who had seen and done things they could never have imagined.
There is no glory to war. There is only sadness and broken people.
And those broken people have spent most of their adult lives trying to recover from the mental and emotional wounds they received, often when they were still only in their teens, still raw and naive.
It is incredibly heartbreaking to see these noble soldiers crippled by the horrors they were subjected to. The flashbacks, the nightmares, the lack of light which lead the darkness to increase. Where nothing is normal, and all is a struggle.
They no longer believe that they are Blessed human beings, but feel abandoned and survive on a day to day basis, struggling with the challenges that beset them.
It has long being acknowledged that soldiers suffer from their wartime experiences - in the First World War it was termed Shellshock and over the years the trauma has been recognised and in the 1980's Post Traumatic Stress Disorder was placed in the Manual of Mental Disorders. In the subsequent years research has placed the trauma in the brain with the information that it actually causes physical changes to the brain. The latest research shows that severe trauma is 'encoded in the viscera' and the war hero's trauma is similar to those of early neglect, childhood abuse, rape and other traumatic events.
The body holds onto the trauma - it is in every cell, and thus affects every part of a sufferer's life. So it is not an easy thing unpick. But it is possible.
And we are not talking about finding out what is wrong, what has to be done to fix it, who can do that, are they good enough, will you have access to them, how you will be able to afford it - this whole mental journey which is complicated, hard and complex....
Your healing begins when you move from a place of worry, to a place of hope. When you move from seeing yourself suffering, to seeing yourself whole. From sickness to wellness. It is an emotional journey seeing yourself less worried and more hopeful. And this can be done immediately. When you take a shift of focus, from the internal fear to the external love. There will be steps along the way - anger, disappointment, frustration - but each step being a little less worried and a little more hopeful.
I have raised a child who suffered early trauma when he was abandoned by his birth mother and started his life in an orphanage. I have lived the last 15 years of medical study of the brain and I have learnt the most effective treatment for him. And this research has lead me to the love and belief of the gentle vibrational power of flower remedies which work on the sub atomic level and vibrate in the viscera and unblock the trauma that is locked there.
It is not a quick fix, but it is an effective and powerful fix that is incredibly gentle, is non invasive, does not have any side effects and can bring about profound relief.
Dr Bach who created these remedies more then 80 years ago was a man before his time. He has incredible insight into human nature and the emotional woes that can lead to illness and poor health, and he sourced the cures to bring about emotional wellbeing and good physical health.
Because of my knowledge and experience of war and trauma I feel that I am well qualified to help veterans suffering from PTSD. Each experience is unique and there is not one remedy that will help all. Rather a combination of remedies are created that are tailored to each particular need. Each, though, will contain the incredible Star of Bethlehem which works on the effects of trauma and which works retrospectively, slowly and patiently unpinning the trauma which has been encoded.
A course of treatment can be designed for each individual. We have a consultation where you discuss your situation and what you would like to achieve. We start off very simply and treat the first things that come up for you - it may be you just wanting to feel safe, or needing to trust in yourself and others, or to stop the random thoughts that prevent you from sleeping. Each of these issues are looked into and we work together to find a remedy that suits you. I make up a bottle which is for three weeks, when we meet again for your second consultation. We look at what has shifted for you and how you would like to move forward. Another bottle is made up for you. We can then schedule another consultation in a month to review this. After that time you will be able to see a huge shift and we keep working together until your find yourself in a position in which you are comfortable. Each consultation is an hour long. And I am always on hand to help and support with any questions or problems.
I am so Blessed to be able to help you on your journey to good emotional wellbeing.
Please call Cecile on 01202280031 or email firstname.lastname@example.com to discuss your needs. Consultations can be held in person or via Skype.

So you're considering diving into the world of Rhode Island theater. Whether you're new to the area or just haven't explored what's on offer yet, it's the perfect time to get initiated, with new seasons starting up and some changes on the horizon. As you might expect in such a small state, our theater community is close-knit, but you might not realize just how vibrant and varied the theater scene here truly is. While it's easy to get caught up in the goings on at the Providence Performing Arts Center and Trinity Rep, there are plenty of other theaters all over the state that deserve your attention. Though I have both lived in Rhode Island and loved theater all of my life, I am still consistently blown away by the talent and originality in this community. Even if you think you've found your corner of Rhode Island theater, it's worth branching out and checking out different theaters and different shows than you would normally see. Whether you're discovering or rediscovering local theater, here are some places to start.
On a Budget
You might not have the money to dole out on exorbitant Broadway tickets, but that doesn't mean you can't see high quality theater. There are plenty of theaters around Rhode Island that strive to be affordable. Both the Contemporary Theater Company in South Kingstown and the Wilbury Theatre Group in Providence (which just moved to a new location) offer pay-what-you-can tickets. The Wilbury Group also runs the annual Providence Fringe Festival every summer, which offers very affordable tickets — plus, all proceeds from ticket sales go directly to the artists. Many theaters also offer special rates for students.
One fantastic way to see shows for free and give back at the same time is to volunteer as an usher. Pretty much any theater is always looking for volunteers, as they would not be able to operate without them. The requirements for volunteers vary based on the theater. Some, like PPAC, require you to volunteer at a certain number of shows. Others, like the Stadium Theater in Woonsocket, are much more lenient and allow you to volunteer for as many or as few shows as you want. As long as you don't mind dressing like a penguin and standing for a long time, there's a theater that would love to have you.
And All That Jazz
There's a gaping hole in the hearts of musical lovers across Rhode Island where the Ocean State Theater Company used to be — as well as a sadly empty theater in Warwick. Though the professional musical powerhouse is still sorely missed after its sudden closing a few months ago, there are plenty of other places to get your musical fill. For one thing, don't overlook community theater groups like Academy Players in Providence and Encore Rep and Shining Light of the Stadium Theatre in Woonsocket. They each put on a few well-loved musicals a year; some of their recent productions have included If/Then, Bring It On and Young Frankenstein, featuring local talent that will blow you away.
If you're interested in something edgier, The Wilbury Group usually puts on one musical a year. These aren't your family-friendly, G-rated, fun musicals that you see in other venues. Past musicals they've done include Next to Normal and Spring Awakening, both of which tackle serious subjects that might not be for the faint of heart.
For the Kids
If you're looking to bring along a future thespian on your journey through Rhode Island theater, there are definitely options available. The key thing is to do research on the show; even shows that look perfectly innocent may not be. Over the summer, Theatre by the Sea in Wakefield usually puts on some kid-friendly shows. Other safe bets include any youth theaters or junior productions of shows. Swamp Meadow in Foster puts on one youth production every summer and two productions for all ages during the summer. The Stadium Theater also hosts a few junior productions throughout the year. When the holidays roll around, the many productions of A Christmas Carol can be an enchanting experience. Trinity Rep's production is a staple of Christmas in Rhode Island — for a while when I was younger, I saw it every year — and this year's should be particularly memorable with the incomparable Joe Wilson Jr. as Scrooge.
Original, Edgy and/or Downright Weird
You don't have to travel far to see a show that's totally new and original. There are playwrights right here creating and putting on original works all the time. If you're bored with mainstream, time-tested theater, these are the places to check out. As long as you go in with an open mind (in some cases, a VERY open mind), you'll come away having had a unique experience. The number one destination for edgy new works is, of course, the Fringe Festival, which showcases the works of artists from here and around the country for one week during the summer. As for the rest of the year, its host, The Wilbury Group, has a new works program called Studio W that puts on readings, workshops and full-fledged productions. Perhaps the biggest name in new works in Rhode Island is Kevin Broccoli of Epic Theatre Company, whose plays may be the most daring around.
There is amazing work happening in the Rhode Island theater community on all levels, and there are too many theaters to shout out here. To really get a sense of what's going on this season, keep an eye on our theater listings and see what piques your interest. There is always a wide array of shows going on, so whether you're looking to laugh, cry or be inspired, you'll find something that fits the bill. Whatever your interests within theater, whether it's in the audience, on stage or backstage, there's a way to participate, and there's a place for you in this community.

Wow. So…. 2 weeks since my last post. I have no really good excuse for that, except that things slowed down a bit (though still just as fun) once I left Sabah. In Sarawak, I headed straight for Kuching, spent about a day in the city and then booked for the countryside.
I ended up at a little place in a village called Santubong, right on the South China Sea. It's really quite astonishing to go from living in a land-locked country to seeing so much water. I've pretty much spent the past 2 months near (or right on) the ocean, and I'm still overwhelmed by the vastness. In Santubong I stayed in a cute little retreat, far away from the real world and quite idyllic. It was the perfect getaway and soooo relaxing after running around Sabah.
Then it was off to Mulu Caves to meet my cousin. Mulu is a World Heritage site, and while it's something to see, it's not quite as phenomenal as I was expecting. Partly, it's been built up for tourism, so you feel a bit like cattled being herded through the caves. I realize, of course, that you can get off the beaten path (go to the Pinnacles for example), but it's kind of a lot of effort. And since Borneo is such an easy place to travel, and perfect for the lazy traveler, it's a bit hard to muster the energy to attempt a trek through the jungle. And yes, I realize how silly that sounds. The whole point of going to Borneo is to trek through the jungle, but since when have I been the typical traveler?
So I did the spa tour of Borneo instead. Starting in Mulu, heading to Miri, and then Bandar Seri Begawan. The hotels are beautiful, the ocean views gorgeous, the beds enormous, the sunsets fantastic, the spas blissful. Nothing like a scrub/soak/massage/facial extravaganza to make life goooood.
This is the nice part of traveling (not-so-nice part: so sick of my clothes!) – being able to change up your plans and, on a whim, check into a fancy-schmancy hotel (with a movie theatre!!) and eat nachos by an 11000 sq m pool.
In Seoul now. More spas. But sadly, it's cold. I miss the warmth of Borneo already.

If you came up at a certain moment, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, and Donna Karan were the holy trinity, bigger than life icons who defined American fashion in the late 20th century. At 35, Alexander Wang is just barely old enough to have witnessed their glory days firsthand (only Lauren is still taking runway bows), but Wang wanted to pay them homage anyway. "What got me here... who were the pioneers who paved the way for me... American fashion and being born in America has influenced me so much. Not just the brands, but what they stood for: strong, unapologetic women."
The designer's Rockefeller Center show—the first ever held at the venue, he proudly noted, and a spot extremely well-suited for the kind of public-facing event he's tried to pull off in the past—was divided into sections. Donna Karan got the Wang treatment to start. Decades after she did them, her bold shoulders and no-fuss stretch jersey bodysuits still signal power—a testament to how groundbreaking her early collections were. Logo tees, denim in '90s-ish light blue washes, and underwear as outerwear were the Calvin Klein codes Wang picked up on. Of the trinity, Wang's chilled-out, sexy aesthetic is most closely aligned with Klein's, only here a shy Pete Davidson of Saturday Night Live fame stood in for Marky Mark, and did a rather irresistible job of it. Ralph Lauren-isms like flannel plaid, mile-long suede fringe, and wide-wale corduroy are rare sights on a Wang runway. That might be why the Lauren section proved the most compelling; change trumps continuity, and the cut of the corduroy blazers was good.

Breadcrumb Overrides
#5727 (In Topic #1335)
The issue is, it seems I have to define an override for each page within the help zone to get the breadcrumbs to show accurately. This isn't required for the forum zone (as forums, topics, posts, etc all show as children of home:forum in the breadcrumbs by default), so why is it required here? Or am I just doing something wrong?
<substitution match_key="help:">
:
That shows the help zone as a child of "home", as expected. But, without defining an override for each page within the zone, the breadcrumbs don't even show on pages within the help zone, UNLESS I remove {+START,IF,{$IN_STR,{$BREADCRUMBS},<a }} from GLOBAL_HTML_WRAP, but then it only shows the current page's title and doesn't show the "home" or "help" links.
So either way I'm having to create an override for each page. What am I doing wrong?
Last edit: by Joe
I have a page called "refunds" within my "help" zone. Currently, without any modifications to the system (any breadcrumb overrides or removal of that code from the global template), the breadcrumbs are completely absent.
I added this override:
<substitution match_key="help:refunds">
:
help:
Now it works, but I have to add an override for every single page. That's a filthy workaround.
Pages without a breadcrumb override don't show at all because it's being hidden by {+START,IF,{$IN_STR,{$BREADCRUMBS},Help>Refunds", which seems to only be accomplished by adding an override.
But my question is, if the forum doesn't require an override for every forum, topic, or post…why do my pages each need one?
<substitution match_key="help:">
:
<substitution match_key="help:_WILD">
:
help:
…makes the world spin again. That's kinda deceiving though, cos there's no wildcard in the override for the forums…
Anywho, it's working now.

That's right.
Everything on the forum zone (or most things, I'm not 100%) flows back to the forumview page, which is the default page for that zone. For example, a topic is in a forum, and hence the breadcrumbs inherent to that topic are going to flow through forumview.
So that's why the XML configuration is simpler for the forum zone, it is inherently already half way there.

Cairo's iconic Tahrir square packed with thousands rallying in solidarity with Palestine.
It is hard to believe that those are the same people who were on the verge of being torn apart by the deadly sectarian violence just a few days ago. It is hard to imagine those are the same people who are yet struggling out of a revolution that weighed down heavily on their economy and security.
How could they, in just few days, grow out of their grief and overcome the dreadful shadow of civil war. How could they easily wipe the tears, put out the fire that meant to engulf the whole country and instead put on a smile, hold hands and head for Tahrir square once again. How could the people of Egypt, while preoccupied and deeply engaged in sorting out the post-Mubarak mess, find the time, or better yet the drive to show solidarity to their Palestinian brethren?
We can only understand this through a historical perspective. Only a people who go back thousands of years and who have been exposed to all sorts of experiences and historical episodes could come up with this remarkable construct of resilience.
Calls for third intifada from Cairo and Tel Aviv
With the dawn break of Friday, May 13th, the prefixed date for Egyptian masses to support the Palestinian cause, thousands rallied in Tahrir square calling for national unity between Muslims and Christians and at the same time showing their everlasting solidarity for the Palestinians and their legitimate struggle to liberate their homeland from the Israeli occupation.
According to a facebook page created by Arab and Palestinian activists, these Friday rallies at the Cairo's iconic square are meant to, not only revive the popular support for the Palestinian cause but to officially launch Egyptian mass rallies toward Gaza, in a move that would encourage Palestinians in return to take to the streets and start their third intifada.

JMC Ministries Response:
"I (God) will bless those who bless you (Israel) and will curse those who curse you" (Gen 12:3)
For such a long time, God's chosen people (Israel) waited to become a recognized nation again.
Israel back in the Land . . . on May 14, 1948
The UN, USA etc praised and rejoiced after this date. Believing "a peace in the middle east" was here.
So Jews from around the world started to gather back into their homeland just as the Bible said.
"He will set up a banner for the nations,
and will assemble the outcasts of Israel,
and gather together the dispersed of Judah
from the four corners of the Earth." (Not just Babylon ...)
(Isaiah 11:12)
"Behold, I (God) will make JerusalemAnd bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; (outside Jerusalem)
a cup of trembling (anger, fear)
"For behold, in those days and at that time,
When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem, (sometime after 1948)
I will also gather ALL nations,
"And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs
coming out of the mouth of the Dragon, (Satan)
out of the mouth of the Beast, (the Antichrist)
and out of the mouth of the False Prophet. (the religious "beast"... Revelation 13:11-12)
For they are spirits of demons,
performing signs,
which go out to the kings of the Earth
and of THE WHOLE WORLD,
to gather them to the battle of that great Day of God Almighty.
"Behold, I am coming as a thief.
Blessed is he who watches,
and keeps his garments,
lest he walk naked and they see his shame."
And they (the spirits of demons)
gathered them together (the armies of all the nations)
to the place called in Hebrew, ARMAGEDDON."
(Revelation 16:13-16)
But what the average person who doesn't read scripture realize that as Bible prophecy was being fulfilled. The wars and rumors of wars began. Natural disasters: record earthquakes, tornadoes, floods, new strange diseases/viruses that can't be cured. All of this fulfills scripture.
"For then there will be great tribulation such as has not been
since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.
And unless those days were shortened,
no flesh (on Earth) would be saved."
(Matthew 24:21-22)
But a focal point is coming with this 3rd Intifada. A beginning to the end of the world. Yes indeed it is. The end isn't quite here yet, with the middle east coming together against Israel and churches such as the Methodist church sending out newsletters in support of a Palestinian state, time will only tell.
And I will enter into judgment with them there
On account of My people, My heritage Israel,
Whom they have scattered among the nations;
They have also DIVIDED up My Land." (Israel)
(Joel 3:1-2)
So what will the Christians do as the march on Israel gets closer?

St. Paul's Episcopal Church is a graceful, historical church in the heart of Walnut Creek, California. Located at 1924 Trinity Avenue, this historic parish was first built in 1889 and is the oldest church in the area, still amazingly serving Episcopal Californians to this day. With it's major religious and cultural heritage to the area, and its long history of service to Walnut Creek, let's take a look at just what makes St. Paul's Church so fascinating to visit.
Back in the old days before modern travel, Episcopalians living in Walnut creek had to make long and difficult treks to nearby Martinez California to get to church. The community deeply need a closer church where they could have Sunday school for children and assorted other church-related activities. Soon, five families associated with the Martinez practice came together for this mutual need and worked out an agreement for how they could establish a church in Walnut Creek.
Maria O'Neil and Isabella Harrison would be sent to go speak with Dr. James Abercrombie, the Missionary-in-Charge of Grace Church Martinez, to convince him of the cause in Walnut Creek. Dr. Abercrombie was already quite old, in his seventies at that time, and had been working for years in the service of Episcopalian parishes. This didn't stop him, however, and Dr. Abercrombie conducted the first Episcopalian service in the Walnut Creek area.
Reverend Hamilton Lee was put in charge of the organizing required for the construction of the church in Walnut Creek. A deed for land on School Street was acquired and construction soon began. Cornelius Waite and his colleagues were brought on to do most of the construction work after a long period was spent collecting funds for the project.
The building remained a mission church for generations in little Walnut Creek, until just before World War II. Then, Reverend James P. Trotter from New York, would go to St. Paul's and help it attain parish status. Reverend Trotter would later become the first rector of St. Paul's and served there for almost a decade.
Today, membership at St. Paul's has massively expanded compared to its modest community held in 1889. To this day, the parish still serves its community in Walnut Creek, and it doesn't look like that will change anytime soon for this piece of California history.
St. Paul's Church is open for worship at various times in the week, with Sunday service starting at 7:30 AM through 10:30 AM. Their office hours are Monday through Thursday from 9:30 AM to 3:30 PM. They also allow non-church members to hold weddings, baptisms, and funerals in the chapel. The chapel makes a great setting for a wedding. You can call their office during the hours above to get more information or plan a wedding. The church also holds Christian education seminars discussing the history of the faith and how the major figures shaped the beliefs of congregants today. If you find yourself interested in learning more, always check their website for when these seminars are held.

Safety knots ought to be snug up against the major knot. There are different kinds of ropes you may select from to hang you tire swing. Both the kinds of ropes are long-lasting. It's also ideal to place a leash around their neck, the same as a dog. For instance, if your cat should eliminate weight, this has to be accomplished slowly for the catas health. For the average, healthful cat or kitten, here is a fast breakdown of the varieties of food youall find in the grocery shop or pet shop.
When the green crank is turned, it is extremely easy. You require something different to do, maybe something closer to the floor and with less chance of specific death. It's vital to water regularly and inspect the soil for good moisture level.You can install an automated drip irrigation system, which you are able to get as a package. Dog food or perhaps a can of tuna doesnat provide the whole nutrition a cat requirements.
To create a conventional mannequin scarecrow you'll first have to construct a frame. You may see that you're able to smash in a window and you will discover a Tricycle vehicle which you are able to buy for 5,000 studs. Ultimately, retaining walls may also function as seating places. Bash that hydrant and you'll have the Fifth Red Brick. For dogs, you can construct a dog house, but as far as anteaters are involved, their living space, depends on the sort of anteater! If you don't have one, you'll have to receive one built in your garden. A little backyard doesn't imply it cannot be appropriately designed to produce the sort of landscape you want to.
The very first is situated at the peak of a ladder. The very first is Taylor, which you are able to buy for 20,000. It is crucial to train them, which will just happen over time. Let everyone play a lot of the time. Using it to raise the speed of a car (or some other vehicle) indicates you will accomplish your objectives through your own efforts. Then there is just 1 thing left to try. It is intriguing to remember that each and every new idea is a culmination of several different ideas.
Now it's the Bike Hike level, and you may beat it. The consequent balance made by a 3-point hammock stipulates a mild sway movement. It will provide you with the suitable strength and endurance. It's a remarkable approach to fit in some exercise. It will provide you with an intense workout and you may also enjoy an ocean view.
Today you can even purchase fake" tire swings made from plastic that will get the job done almost in addition to the true thing. Naturally there's a catch. According to Gilliam, the full scene was filmed. You need to travel down the street that's parallel to the ramp. From that point, it is as simple as working your way around the block, smashing whatever you are able to find. After the key is utilized on the lock, a moving bridge is going to be revealed.

Trying to mitigate and delist Boulder Creek and coping with E. coli in the stream is a complex, challenging problem the Boulder Riverkeeper is taking on.
Dr. Laura Triplett and students from Gustavus Adolphus College are monitoring southern Minnesota's watershed to evaluate water quality improvement measures.
Performing environmental monitoring of southern Ohio stormwater involved everything from sophisticated GIS mapping to fine-tuning some of the six basic senses.
Trials of steel chips from industrial waste show that they effectively remove E. coli from stormwater by lysing the bacterial cell walls.
Recent work shows how the "decorative" heterogeneity of surfaces at the nanoscale can help predict how colloids like bacteria travel through groundwater.

Translating and editing is a lonely business, a little like playing a piano in an empty theatre. You read the score, you try an capture every nuance of what the composer expressed. But you are playing to a vast silence. You know that some people will hate the book, some will love it, some will be bored. But you live for that moment when the emotional truth of the book reaches into another language. We had a beautiful review of "Raven's Way" by Michael Burianyk. He understood what the author and the translator had tried to achieve. It made the hours grappling with the text worthwhile, like hearing a faint ripple of applause from somewhere in that vast theatre. Read it here. And buy the book on amazon.com.
