SSTH has been a front-runner in Swiss hospitality management education for 50 years, and as a member of Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne Group and a part of the Swiss Hotel Association family, with 3,000 hotels, their degree programs enjoy the highest recognition in the industry worldwide.
The Director Knut Rupprecht comments on the continuing success of SSTH around the world:
"The hospitality industry offers you an array of fascinating international career opportunities across the globe. With our double degree program, consisting of the Swiss Professional Degree and the BSc in International Hospitality Management (curriculum Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne, EHL), you will have a distinct competitive advantage in the hotel industry."
Hospitality management at its finest:
Switzerland's world-renowned dual education system, based on two key pillars, offers both academic and specialist professional education.
Both the Swiss Professional Degree and the Bachelor of Science in International Hospitality Management are accredited by the Swiss federal government. The BSc degree is legally protected in Europe in compliance with the Bologna Declaration and is recognized as a HES-SO (University of Applied Sciences of Western Switzerland) degree. SSTH (College of Applied Sciences) and EHL (University of Applied Sciences) are the only hospitality management institutions federally recognized for their English language degree programs in Switzerland.
SSTH's Alumni speak volumes
Since 1966, more than 5'100 students from over 186 countries have graduated from SSTH and are now internationally respected hospitality leaders. As we continue to strengthen our global Alumni Community, our close bond to the EHL Alumni Network – the world's largest hospitality network with over 25'000 members around the world – represents an exceptional opportunity in terms of knowledge exchange and career prospects.
An international cornerstone:
The student body at SSTH is a unique composition of both international and Swiss students, to keep the community as diverse as possible. With students, staff and alumni from over 100 different countries, students study in a truly international environment, whilst experiencing real Swissness with our location in Graubünden, Switzerland's #1 tourism region.
Not only does the location, which is surrounded by famous destinations such as Arosa, Flims, Laax, Lenzerheide, Davos and St Moritz, open up many opportunities for students to experience international luxury hotels, but the outdoor life and activities are endless in this area. From skiing to snowboarding, mountain biking to river rafting, there is plenty of adventure to be had. For the more cosmopolitan and laid-back, a selection of international restaurants and bars, designer shopping outlets and spa and wellness can be found in the city of Chur and surrounding cities like Zurich, Lucerne, Basel and Bern. With Europe on its doorstep, travelling from SSTH to other destinations is easy and relatively cheap with student travel cards offering discounted rates.

The opposite of wrong is wrong
Are we aware that it is very much possible for us to learn how to interrupt and intercept our habitual unconscious reaction by stopping and thinking, very much applying the Alexander Technique principles of inhibition and direction?
Our wholly unconscious habitual reaction is to somehow think that we need to do something in order to make things better, to improve things. We can see how this happens in an Alexander Technique lessons when the pupil is under the impression that they need to do more in terms of rising from the chair, when in fact all the teacher is asking the pupil to do is to continue giving their directions, the guiding orders which remind us about asking for the freedom of our neck, our head balance, the length and width of the back and torso, and so forth. Of course it is our habitual unhelpful thinking which causes us all initially to interfere with all of this, without reasoning out how indeed we are able to do this without making a whole load of unnecessary effort. We are so convinced that we have to do something in order to bring about our desired solution, indeed it is so ingrained, whereas working according to the means whereby principle shows us that the opposite is true, it is all in our thinking.
As we are a psychophysical mechanism which works as a unity, this equally applies to our mind, body and emotions and is the reason why the Alexander Technique is very much an all-encompassing, and therefore holistic, mind-body intelligence technique. Whatever the habitual reaction, over time we are able to observe it when it happens, to decide to switch our thinking about it in the moment by observing it, without judgement, and directing ourselves towards a different new manner of Use, one from which we ourselves choose to learn as opposed to remaining stuck as a slave when it comes to unconscious habit. Of course this is something about which we can choose to be vigilant. This freedom of choice when it comes to close observation of our own thinking and how this impedes us during lessons is in my mind a very important aspect of learning and applying the Alexander Technique.
I have referred to this phrase of the opposite of wrong being wrong previously. It's is something I heard a long ago and I have often found myself pondering on its meaning, now understanding it more is proving very helpful. You might be as confused about this expression as much as I first was, but we come to understand what this means.

WT Architecture has finally submitted its plans for a visitor building at Scotland's iconic Forth Rail Bridge – six years after the scheme was first unveiled
The local practice lodged plans with the City of Edinburgh Council for the Bridge Walk Reception Hub, which will form part of a tourist attraction at the southern end of the 129-year-old crossing.
It marks a significant step in Network Rail's proposals for the 'exhilarating' Forth Bridge Experience which will allow visitors to climb the bridge 110m above the estuary.
Some 80,000 visitors could walk up and along the famous bridge near Edinburgh every year using a harness and continuous safety line.
They would climb to a new viewing platform at the top above the river using existing and new walkways built into the structure.
WT Architecture revealed images of the proposals almost six years ago, when Network Rail was proposing a visitor centre and viewing platform in North Queensferry, as well as a facility at the southern side.
However, according to the backers, funding considerations encouraged taking forward a 'leaner, more focused bridge walk project with the potential to develop the business further in the future'.
After a hiatus, the proposals were revived earlier this year with a restructured Network Rail funding the scheme through its Scottish arm.
WT Architecture said extensive work with potential operators, Historic Environment Scotland and City of Edinburgh Council had seen designs evolve from a light-framed transparent pavilion to a bolder structure with concrete outer walls.
Network Rail's planning application proposes the hub building for the site of an existing maintenance depot on the south side of the crossing located just 250m from Dalmeny station.
WT Architecture is working with Arup and landscape designers The Paul Hogarth Company on the overall scheme, which could be open within two years.
The practice said the building 'echoes the ground-hugging defensive organic structures on escarpments, islands and hilltops around the Firth of Forth and adjacent First World War gun emplacements'.
It added: 'The outer walls of the hub reinforce the defensive edge of the coastal escarpment where the bridge lands, using a wrapping rampart-like parapet as the access route to the bridge itself.
'A more vertical two-storey inner tower provides a descent route back from the bridge. To the east, the building's walls are more open and welcoming, allowing visitors and light to flow in and out.
'The sculptural carved appearance is accentuated by the use of in situ concrete, while contrasting Cor-ten screens reflect the site's heritage as one of the main fabrication and assembly areas for the bridge construction.'
The Forth Bridge, designed by John Fowler and Benjamin Baker, was awarded Unesco World Heritage site status in 2015.

OK well now, since I have been in Europe I have visited a few totally different parts of the world. And as expected the government services in those places were also different. Every place that I went I sent some postcards to people in the states and I paid attention to when people said that they got them.
Switzerland 4-5 days
Spain 5-6 days
Egypt 3-4 weeks
And everyone who has read James' account of our trip to Egypt should not be suprised by that. I am actualy more suprised that they made it out of Egypt and to America but then I was staying at the Hilton (great choice in a bad security country) so I figured that they would be a little more responsible than the average Egyptian hotel.

Signs, Car Wraps and More...
As everyone knows I am doing signs. Well I have decided that I am going to really go for it now. So I have recently done some re-do's to my website, started paying for some Google AdWords and I have a few other things in the works.
I just wanted to make a post about it so that everyone knows that I am still doing it. If you hear someone wanting some signage, thinking about starting a new business or complaining about their current sign company, let me know. Tell them that you have the perfect person, I won't disappoint. I don't like failing so that won't happen.
I will pretty much do signs anywhere. I really want to start wrapping cars, so I really would go anywhere in the country for that.
If it's a small job or a big job close or far I will get it done. I just need a little help getting the word out. Post my web address on your blog and on a friends blog, if I can give you some business cards please tell me, look at my services offered on my website and think of who you know that needs something, give me new ideas...

Since 2012, HITEK helped over 3200 schools with their 1:1 technology programs.
Past News Releases
CHICAGO December 30, 2017
Sunrise Hitek's tech gear has grown exceedingly popular in K-12 schools. For this reason they have decided to launch a separate website specifically for K-12 educators. The site has an easy to use interface, as well as testimonials from pleased customers in the education sector. Since 2012, HITEK helped over 3200 schools with their 1:1 technology programs. The HITEK website is currently up and fully running.
The HITEK site highlights their three most popular items for schools. These best selling products include their Slim Tough Case line for all iPad models, Rugged Laptop Bags featuring a perfect fit for all laptops and Chromebooks from 11″ to 15″, and Apple certified iPad wired keyboards. All of these products were designed specifically for K-12 schools. HITEK went through rigorous testing and listened intently to feedback received from educators when designing these products. These products are both durable enough for students, and were designed thoughtfully for ease of use.
For schools that use iPads for PARCC, Smarter Balanced, or other standardized tests, the iPad Wired Keyboard is the perfect solution. Wired keyboards are recommended over Bluetooth for large deployments and standardized tests due to their superior reliability, reduced interference, and easy management. There are no batteries to replace or bluetooth pairing problems. This keyboard is Apple MFI Certified with an 8-pin or 30-pin lightning connector. It is compatible with all iOS devices, and tested with the latest version of iOS.
The Rugged iPad Case is the best protection for iPads that still need to fit in charging carts and have easily accessible ports. It is specifically designed for K-12 schools, and is compatible with all popular charging carts, including the Bretford, Anthro, Datamation, Ergotron, and others. The Rugged iPad Case features a dual-layer rugged design with a protective silicone skin over an inner hard case. Unlike many of the other cases out there, the Rugged iPad Case has a built-in scratch-resistant screen protector. This case comes in a choice of (8) vibrant colors.
The Chromebook Bag is ideal for 1:1 technology programs. With its always-in design, the bag offers drop protection and eliminates broken screens in the school, at home or anywhere students use laptops or Chromebooks. The rugged laptop case is made of durable ballistic nylon on a rigid frame. Its greatest feature is the "always-in" design with proprietary Cooling Channel™ technology which allows the computer to be used without being removed from the case.
About Sunrise Hitek
Sunrise Hitek's "Hitek" store, is a leading maker of protective gear for Apple's iPad. The brand changed to üuber when the company starting developing cases for other devices, such as the MacBook, Chromebook, and Samsung devices. Sunrise Hitek Group, LLC, owner of the üuber brand, also operates Sunrise Hitek, a leading digital printing company based in Chicago. As a G7 Qualified Master Printer, Sunrise is uniquely qualified among protective gear makers to offer a wide array of customization options, ensuring the most consistent and accurate color reproduction.

The flu (influenza) is caused by a virus that is easily spread. The flu can be more dangerous than you think. A flu vaccine is your best chance to avoid the flu. The vaccine is given in the form of a shot in the arm, or sometimes as a nasal spray. It's best to get vaccinated each fall, before flu season starts. This can be done at your health care provider's office or a health clinic. Drug stores, senior centers, and workplaces often offer flu vaccines, too. If you have questions about getting vaccinated, ask your health care provider.
The flu vaccine will not give you the flu.
The flu is caused by a virus. It can't be treated with antibiotics.
The flu can be life-threatening, especially for people in high-risk groups. This includes the very young, the elderly, and people with weakened immune systems. Thousands of people die of complications from the flu each year.
Influenza is not the same as "stomach flu," the 24-hour bug that causes vomiting and diarrhea. This is most likely due to a GI (gastrointestinal) infection, not influenza.
Flu tends to come on quickly. Symptoms include fever, headache, fatigue, cough, sore throat, runny nose, and muscle aches. Children may have upset stomach or vomiting, but adults usually don't. Some symptoms, such as fatigue and cough, can last a few weeks.
There are many strains (types) of flu viruses. Medical experts predict which 3 or 4 strains are most likely to make people sick each year. Flu vaccines are made from these strains. With the vaccine, inactivated ("killed") flu viruses are injected into your body. With the nasal spray, live and weakened viruses are sprayed into your nose. The nasal spray is only given to healthy people ages 2 to 49. The viruses in both vaccines prompt the body to make antibodies to fight these flu strains. If you're exposed to the same strains later in the flu season, the antibodies will help your body fight the virus. Your health care provider can tell you which type of flu vaccine is right for you.
Almost everyone should get vaccinated, especially people in the following higher-risk groups:
Adults ages 50 and older
Babies and children ages 6 months and older (ask your health care provider if your child should receive the vaccine)
Children on long-term aspirin therapy
People with chronic health problems, such as diabetes, HIV, chronic lung disease, asthma, heart failure, or any kidney, liver, blood, metabolism or neurologic disorders
People receiving certain medical treatments
People with a weakened immune system
People who are extremely obese
People who live in nursing homes or other long-term care facilities
Women who are or will be pregnant during flu season
Caregivers and household contacts of babies younger than age 6 months
People who are American Indian or Alaskan Native
Health care workers
Babies younger than age 6 months
People severely allergic to a component in the vaccine
People who have had life-threatening reactions to the flu vaccine
A person who has a high fever with severe illness (the vaccine can be given after the fever goes away)
People with egg allergies or a history of Guillain-Barré syndrome should talk with their health care provider to see if they can get the flu vaccine

Love these shoes! I bought them in a neutral to update my summer-fall wardrobe. Not only are they in fashion, the leather is soft, with no breaking in needed. Very comfortable right out of the box.

Eric has nailed it and I plan to develop these themes, and more, next week.
Anatomy of a PCEHR system
2010-December-03 | 16:10 By: eric Filed in: pcehr | policy and politics
Well, two themes dominated the two day e-health summit in Melbourne this week:-
- Infectious enthusiasm
- vagueness of the PCEHR
These two themes actually run hand in glove. Both the vagueness of the PCEHR model and the rampant optimism are in large part due to ignorance. There was an endless supply of fresh consumer, bureaucrat and clinician faces, unjaundiced from the attempts to progress e-health both here and overseas over the past 10 or more years. The summit compere, Peter Couchman must have used the words "exciting", "impressive" and their ilk dozens of times when singing the praises of presenters and presentations. But amongst the delegates, there was also a silent minority of the skeptical knowledgable and experienced.
It is interesting to ponder how much of the vagueness and the enthusiasm was deliberately manufactured for the event and how much was real. If more sits in the latter camp, then things are worse than even I imagined. But there was plenty of the former, due in large part to Mukesh Haikerwal's formidable skill at harnessing clinician support and painting a picture of the long term benefits from the deployment and adoption of e-health, rather than focussing on the difficulties (impossibility?) of implementing a national PCEHR system of any value by July 2012.
One got the feeling that Mukesh doesn't much care if the July 2012 goal is not met; that the work will not go to waste, and that it is all about making progress towards the noble vision of a better e-health-enabled world that promises so much. In some respects, I agree with him. I certainly think that the process needs believers and pushers of his standing in order to gain significant amounts of investment. In some respects, it is like the stance of Senator Conroy and the National Broadband Network. Never mind the cost, just look in awe at the benefits!
There is a heap more that is just even better here:
We should all be concerned just how poorly Eric sees this. I have to say I think he has also missed some other issues I will explore next week!
Read and realise you are being badly suckered by a rubbish Department of Health. They are utterly clueless. Eric gets it. They don't!
The "Raving Sycophant" is still saying how wonderful all this is if you bother to look - but why bother?

I'm hearing a mixed message. 1. This is the first time I hear of someone referring to SDP as an API. It is no more an API than JSON. It is simply a collection of key-value pairs. 2. I was personally told by the WebRTC specification editors that users are not meant to interact with SDP directly. I think everyone would benefit from the specification editors to stand up and give some official responses. PS: This is precisely the reason I am pushing for the editors to publish a Design Document justifying the design decisions. This document would spell out once and for all whether their intention was for users to interact with SDP directly (and if not, how they are meant to mutate its content).

Dell Rapids SEO Explained
SEO is an acronym for Search Engine Optimization. All modern search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo show their listings as per the things the engine sees necessary. Websites don't have to pay their position in the search results pages, but they need to tweak their content to make it more relevant to their most lucrative search queries. The result of proper SEO is an increase in the quantity and the quality of organic search traffic.

If you see it advertising a sale in a clothing store, visit that store, and possibly try some new brands, thus contributing to the growth of the store. This is the very same principle with SEO. Internet users looking for a certain topic will be prompted to check out a business that consistently appears in their search results.
Search engines use crawlers to collect information from the internet and an index to rank the various webpages in their database. Optimization is about crafting the titles and the meta descriptions of web pages. There are countless people using the internet on a daily basis and thousands of business are taking advantage of this and optimizing their websites. Find below some reasons why any establishment, regardless of the size, should channel their resources in SEO.
1. SEO is an Investment, Not an item of Expenditure.
A huge step for all entrepreneurs is looking at SEO as an investment and not a form of spending. Investments often get profits while expenditure reduces them. Many people believe SEO to be merely another hoax, because of the fact that creating a website is so easy nowadays. Nonetheless, you have to remember that the ultimate goal of SEO is to bring traffic to your business.
As an example, someone trying to find a nice restaurant for their next dinner in Dell Rapids will choose some of the ones that show on the first page in their browser. Consider that running a successful firm needs investments.
Premier SEO agencies seek to improve rankings, but also to make your website better from functional standpoint. They can handle everything, from coding to hosting.
2. SEO is Cost Savvy.
There have been articles published in Forbes magazine that have shown that SEO is a much cheaper form of online marketing as opposed to PPC and social media advertising. SEO is better than other digital marketing activities because it is an organic system that doesn't require buying your way into it as PPC does.
Advertisements are usually shown to millions of internet users, some of them not even needing them, hence making this strategy expensive. Whereas, SEO is built around something someone is actively searching for, resulting in a high ROI.
SEO has become the foundation in which many startup businesses in State have been able to succeed as there is no high operating costs involved. The internet offers startups the chance of growing in popularity among their potential customers.
3. Consumer Research In Dell Rapids Is A Growing Trend
A website is no longer a luxury for a business, it is mandatory in order to rise to the top. While businesses can purchase their online visibility, SEO can help you put your products and services in front of people needing them, in a way that makes you popular for quality. If you are looking to gain leads and clients, it is vital that the website is up to date and has very good sales copy.
SEo not only ranks web pages, it helps to create incredible copy that is going to resonant with your visitors. Over time, your site will grow in popularity due to the SEO and good copy, this will generate more trust. The internet never forgets and posting falsified information has grave consequences. You do not want your service or website to be the prone to bad reviews.
4. SEO Builds Trust.
A customer will trust a firm that continually appears on the top of their primary search results. People will always be more confident in businesses that are readily available online, enabling them to do their research with ease. The customer will focus on the high ranked business instead of looking at the paid ads.
Typically, online trust is one of those things that needs to be earned, however, seeing a spot in the top of the search engines gives the user that sense of trust.Paid advertising is prone to disappearing, while organic results can stick for a very long time. This implies that a web user is confident that they can always revisit your site.
5. SEO Is A Major Asset
Using an SEO service is going to help grow your site over time. The consequence is that it will help keep on generating traffic. While search engine marketing campaigns can show your business on top of the first page, your listing will disappear as soon as you'll stop paying. Natural searches keep on doing their job, and they are an excellent long term investment opportunity.
6. More Mobile Searches Than Ever Before
There are more people using the internet on their mobile devices than ever before. This is clear to understand, thinking that smartphones are easy to carry around with you, being therefore convenient in a wide range of situations when you need urgent solutions. Mobile users tend to rely more on organic search results than on paid ads. This is merely due to the fact that organic searches are totally tailored to the mobile user. Firms that appreciate the value of cellular devices should concentrate on SEO.
The use of cell phones can be connected to social media pages. Facebook, Twitter and WhatsApp are commonly used for business purposes, as well as for leisure, learning and entertainment or even for solving some urgent problems. When a user is hunting for a solution to their problem, it is necessary that you'll be there right at the top of the page. If you have quality content and can offer the best solution to that user's problem, you and the website are certain to get an instant vote of confidence.
7. SEO Offers Great Benefits To Small Businesses
It's easy for small business owners to overlook the importance of SEO in their overall marketing mix. However, these small firms have a lot to benefit from SEO since most of the searches look for answers that are near their location. People searching for restaurants, for instance, will use the internet to find the nicest ones near them. Any firm that appears high on the results will most likely gain from this search. Consider the fact that people often review businesses after they have found them online is just an added benefit.
Three's a lot to gain for small businesses in Dell Rapids, as this is an easy way to obtain recommendations and favorable ratings from their local customers. If you still believe hiring an SEO agency is nothing but an extra cost, remember that people constantly move, either for changing their residence or for visiting purposes.
8. SEO Provides Businesses Consumer Insight
SEO is going to be able to provide you traffic that you can track through Google Analytics. The information is important since it gives you a better picture of the consumer behaviors; How they use the internet, how they search for things, the languages they utilize, their locations, the number of times they use the web and the hours of the day which they mostly use the net. These findings can be used to create an incredible plan that will help the overall profitability of your business.
9. The Competition Does The Trick
SEO doesn't stop the very moment you reach top ranks in search for your targeted keywords. You also need to monitor these rankings, in order to make sure they stick. The bare fact is that once a single business disregards SEO, others will attain the top rankings, which indicates that they also acknowledge the significance of SEO. Throwing a firm's site to the wind is choosing to ignore prospective clients.
10. SEO Is Not Going Away
People are increasingly dedicating a bigger part of their time to online activities. The web offers so many options for people especially in between their rigid programs. Television and print are on the way out, it is only a matter of time. If you invest in SEO now, you are setting yourself up for the future.
11. Outranking Bigger Competitors
Small Dell Rapids enterprises find it hard to snatch customers from established firms. SEO offers a cost effective and fair platform where online presence could help you rise to the challenge. An old business may overlook the importance of SEO, thus giving small businesses a tremendous competitive edge and an opportunity to acquire clients. Eventually, one time buyers become loyal customers, as they start trusting the small business more and more.
12. SEO Is The Ideal Employee
Once your website is built with SEO in mind, it will keep on driving targeted traffic to your business. SEO will never become sick or resign, thus being better than any human employee you could possibly get. It is a tool that becomes invaluable for businesses who need to cut costs while still making a profit.
13. Building On Social Media
Facebook, Twitter and other social networks make use of SEO parameters such as meta descriptions and page titles when they generate listings and posts. An SEO agency can help you make the most out of your social media activity by analyzing your readers and by adjusting title tags and meta descriptions accordingly.
14. You Can Outsource SEO
There may times when you do not have the budget or need for a full-time SEO expert. However, there are countless SEO agencies all across the globe that can do the same type of work on a freelance basis.
Outsourcing is more cost effective than getting an in house expert since the agency commits all its resources to your websites and has several experts working on the various aspects all for the common interest.
Always keep in mind that outsourcing allows you to focus on growing your business and on catering to your customers, while the SEO expert creates a platform that attracts qualified leads.

[Mirjan Damaska's] career is celebrated in a collection of essays edited by John Jackson, Maximo Langer and Peter Tillers Crime, Procedure and Evidence in a Comparative and International Context (Hart Publishing, 2008).
Like all such books of essays, the book covers a range of subject matter, not all of which may be of interest to all readers. It is, however, quite common for evidence to be taught by academics also interested in criminal law and procedure and even criminal justice issues, since the boundaries between these subjects can be porous. All such academics will want access to this book, at least in their libraries.
[snip, snip]
It can readily be seen, then, that this book contains much that touches on current debates in New Zealand and in particular will be of interest to those engaged in reviewing the performance of the Evidence Act 2006. That Act is causing fundamental questions to do with the meaning of relevance and prejudice to appear in court in a way that they did not when these principles were unstated. Each of the papers also serves as a good signpost to other writing in the same area. Honours and Masters students studying evidence or criminal procedure should be reading the relevant papers in this book. Likewise, advanced level comparative law students should be contemplating whether comparative method is useful in these areas of law, rather than just in the traditional subjects of contract and property law.
It's here: the law of evidence on Spindle Law. See also this post and this post.

November 20th marked the 88th birthday of legendary custom car builder George Barris, and we were fortunate enough to be a part of the celebration at Barris Kustoms…
If anyone knows how to throw a birthday party, it's the folks at Barris Kustom City…
… every available spot, from lawn to curb, was filled with crazy "kustom" cars!
Where else would we find George, but with glamorous girls and Hollywood cars?
Inside, everyone gathered to talk cars and wish George a happy 88th…
We loved this custom Batmobile cake!
We were delighted to run into our friend Dave Kunz, seen here with George, who gave us the heads-up about this event (thanks, Dave!). Dave received this favorite book as a child, which profiled many of the "star cars" that George built. It fueled his early love for custom cars, and he was thrilled to snap a pic with George and his vintage copy of "Cars of the Stars."
Gifts for George filled this table, but we want to know – who gave George the gold-clad Barbie?
Everyone mixed, mingled, snacked on tacos, played some Barris trivia, and even enjoyed an Elvis entertainer!
George greeted many friends, fans, customers, and industry legends throughout the afternoon.
And many friends brought their cars by to honor George on his special day.
We loved the fine detail on this truck, particularly the clever pinstriping.
We're so happy we were able to join in wishing George Barris a happy 88th birthday…
… and didn't miss the opportunity to sign the giant card, "To the man who makes our automotive dreams into reality – We love you!"
Stay tuned this week as we take you behind the scenes into Barris Kustom City – wait until we show you all that we found during our Shop Crash! Don't miss it!

Countdown, Day 14: The Ghouligans Super Show!
I met these guys 2 years ago at Spooky Empire's Ultimate Horror Weekend, and boy am I glad I did! The Ghouligans Super Show is a throwback to the silly live action shows of yesteryear, like the old Sid & Marty Krofft shows, with some Groovie Goolies mixed in, and a dash of crude humor. They have a website, www.theghouligans.com, as well as a MySpace page. Plus they have several videos on youtube, but you really should get the DVD from their website. If you're a fan of the classic monsters, and have a silly sense of humor, these guys really know how to tickle your funnybone!

Best pants ever.
I have a very physical job and these pants are not only comfortable but actually energizing. The stretch is amazing, I wear an XS and my sister who wears M tried them on. Not only was she able to put them on but after she took them off I was still able to wear them without needing to "was the stretch" out of them. They went right back to normal size. I have a pair for every day of the week and a couple pairs of the Sculptor leggings as well just to be able to change it up.

I know this is the third post…
Hold still Frank!
In 2012 this was an unknown couple.
Then I got lucky when I met Frank who had found Marie-Anne's brother without knowing it.
I didn't realise the importance of that picture until I got this one last week.
Now I have a collection of four pictures of four brothers.
Pretty impressive. Some people would kill to have his or her ancestors' pictures.
Pun intended of course.
They don't have to… They just have to write a blog about them.

Consumer Confidence Unexpectedly Rises in July
Consumer confidence managed to improve in July. The Conference Board's Consumer Confidence Index rose to 121.1 from 117.3 in June. Bloomberg was calling for the index to dip to 117.0 in July. The cutoff date for the preliminary results was July 14.
A nutshell description of this report would be improving business conditions, improving jobs expectations and optimistic short-term outlook. One sour note was that consumers were not as upbeat about their income prospects as in June.
Is confidence high enough that it could force the Federal Reserve to sound more hawkish? The Present Situation Index increased from 143.9 to 147.8, and the Expectations Index rose from 99.6 last month to 103.3.
Here is a breakdown of some of the summary notes and individual readings:
- Those saying business conditions are "good" increased from 30.6% to 33.3%.
- Those saying business conditions are "bad" was virtually unchanged at 13.5%.
- Those stating jobs are "plentiful" rose from 32.0% to 34.1%.
- Those claiming jobs are "hard to get" decreased slightly from 18.4% to 18.0%.
- The percentage of consumers expecting business conditions to improve over the next six months increased from 20.1% to 22.9%.
- Those expecting business conditions to worsen declined from 10.0% to 8.2%.
- The proportion expecting more jobs in the months ahead was unchanged at 19.2%.
- Those anticipating fewer jobs decreased from 14.6% to 13.3%.
- The percentage of consumers expecting an improvement in their income declined moderately from 20.9% to 20.0%.
- The proportion expecting a decline increased from 9.3%t to 10.0%.
Lynn Franco, Director of Economic Indicators at The Conference Board, said:
Consumer confidence increased in July following a marginal decline in June. Consumers' assessment of current conditions remained at a 16-year high (July 2001, 151.3) and their expectations for the short-term outlook improved somewhat after cooling last month. Overall, consumers foresee the current economic expansion continuing well into the second half of this year.
Stocks have so far remained firm after strong earnings reports outweighed the mixed ones. The Dow was last seen up 113 points at 21,626 and the S&P 500 Index was up 9.39 at 2,479.31. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note also was last seen up six basis points at 2.31%.

Meet Rachel Roy
Voice & Piano Instructor, Soloist
I attended Syracuse University where I received a bachelor's degree in vocal performance. I then traveled down south to get my Master's from Southwestern Seminary in Fort Worth, TX. I served as Administrative Director for the Gregg Smith Singers' Adirondack Festival of American Music in Lake Placid, NY and performed with the all-female a cappella ensemble, The Mandarins, for whom I was director and vocal percussionist, as well as a Varsity Vocals award-winning soloist and arranger. I've played the role of Marcellina in Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro, as well as lead roles in Anything Goes, Me and My Girl, Annie Warbucks and Oliver. I have performed with the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra, traveled internationally with the Southwestern Jazz Combo and have been a featured artist on the FEBC radio station in Seoul, Korea. For the past few years I have judged many singing competitions in Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey. I'm currently Director of Music Ministry at Mount Bethel Church.
Why Rachel's Studio?
Kristin K.
"Rachel by far is the best voice teacher I have ever had, vocally and personally. My vocal range has grown because of Rachel's teaching and expertise. Lessons with Rachel are always a lot of fun, and I enjoy singing so much because of it. I hope if you're in need of a voice teacher, you study with Rachel because you won't regret it!"
Jeane H.
"Rachel is very patient with my daughter, who has a learning disability. We couldn't be happier with her as my daughter's Voice Teacher. Rachel makes the lessons fun, and my daughter is learning a lot of great techniques. Highly recommend!"
Teena L.
Rachel is an amazing voice teacher. Excellent vocal technique mixed with an endless supply of positivity and encouragement. Friendly and approachable, making communication easy for both students and parents. The 5 years my daughter has been under her direction have been beyond my expectations.
Jordan A.
"Rachel Roy has been my vocal coach for almost two years and in that time my voice has grown and improved so much. She caters each lesson to fit your style and musical preference, while also taking you outside the box to open you to a wider variety of musical tastes. Although there are many things I could mention, one thing I love about Rachel is that she connects with her students, not just through music, but also on a personal level. She truly cares about every individual and has a drive to see them succeed, as they grow in their talent, and in life in general."
Joyce S.
"Rachel is a wonderful teacher and mentor for my daughter. She is patient and kind; her lessons are technique orientated, yet flexible and fun. Rachel's methods have expanded my daughter's vocal range, technique and performance abilities. As a piano teacher and member of NJ Music Teacher's Association for over thirty years, I am pleased to see the progress and enjoyment by daughter has attained from her voice lessons with Rachel. Great teacher-highly recommend!"
Lesson Information
I offer curriculums in all vocal styles with regard to the individual's age, level of experience and personal goals. I believe that students' needs are of the utmost importance and I am committed to meeting those needs.
As a result, most of my clients are from repeat customers and referrals.

iPhone Pricing
With just hours left until the iPhone event today it's a little late to speculate on pricing, but I just couldn't resist.
Called it. I never believed Apple would create a significantly inexpensive phone, as doing so would segment the market and introduce hallmarks of the Android and Windows worlds. Ben Thompson, speculating on pricing for the iPhone 5S and 5C in his article Thinking about iPhone Pricing, backs up my theory:
"Given the high bar Apple has set (iPhone 5 technology), I (now) expect the iPhone 5C's price to be on the high end of estimates, and possibly higher."
And John Gruber, responding to Ben's article in agreement, backs up my original idea as well:
"Smart take. The key takeaway: do not expect the iPhone 5C to be cheap or low-cost. It's going to be at least $500 unsubsidized, I think. Lower cost, not low cost."
Ben made a number of great points in his article, accompanied by not quite Asymco-caliber, but nevertheless charming, charts illustrating and further explaining those key concepts. If you read only one more article before the press event, this should be it.

Published Papers - Abstract 695
McLaughlin D, Hockey R & Mishra G. Heart disease in women in remote Australia: urban-rural differences after adjusting for lifestyle behaviours and socio-demographic factors. Australian and New Zealand Journal of Public Health, 2013; 37(1): 90
Background: Rural-urban differences in the prevalence of a number of chronic conditions have been identified, with rural residents more likely to have higher morbidity than their urban counterparts. However, differences are not always consistent and variations may exist in particular diseases. The aim of this study was to compare differences in selected chronic conditions in urban, inner regional, outer regional and remote dwelling mid-aged Australian women, and to consider the impact of known socio-demographic and lifestyle factors. Methods: Longitudinal analysis of data from a prospective cohort study. Participants were a community-based random sample of women (n=13,715) aged 45 to 50 years when recruited in 1996. Measures used were: area of residence in Australian States and Territories, chronic conditions, BMI, smoking, physical activity, alcohol consumption and socio-demographic characteristics.Results: Women living in inner regional (OR 1.24, 95%CI 1.05-1.47) and remote/very remote (OR 1.74, 95%CI 1.24-2.44) areas were more likely to report heart disease than women in urban areas after adjusting for survey and age. These differences remained for women in remote/very remote areas after further adjusting for demographic factors alone (OR 1.73, 95%CI 1.23-2.44), demographics and BMI (OR 1.66, 95%CI 1.17-2.34) and demographics, BMI, smoking, alcohol and exercise (OR 1.63, 95%CI 1.16-2.31).Conclusions: Our results indicate that differences in heart disease between urban and remote women are not driven by socio-demographic factors nor are they generally related to poor lifestyle behaviours. These findings suggest that any subsequent discrepancy in mortality between women living in urban and remote areas is most likely the result of differences in access to health services and available treatments.Return

WHEN it comes to boosting your health and wellbeing, there's nothing like going for a walk and soaking up the sights, smells and sounds of nature.
And now a new initiative from Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria aims to welcome more seniors into Melbourne and Cranbourne Gardens with a series of special events and activities.
From nature-inspired paper sculptures to talking trees, the Reach Out program includes health and wellbeing experiences, sensory workshops, indigenous teachings and garden tours aimed at enhancing the health and wellbeing of older people. It includes special access to some of the country's finest horticulturalists and plant researchers.
Aimed exclusively at people aged 60 and over, the program was initially developed as a partnership with aged care provider Regis Aged Care and is now open to the general public with free and low-cost activities.
In July audiences can enjoy the artistry of internationally-acclaimed paper sculpture artist Ray Besserdin with his new exhibition Paper Landscapes.
Transforming paper - made with cotton, hemp and mulberry - into three-dimensional sculpted pieces, Ray's work explores his fascination with nature.
In a career spanning 30 years and 24 awards, his artworks are prized worldwide. The Path to Gondwana, created for this exhibition, recently won a Gold Medal for Creativity from Mondial Art Acadamie, France.
Ray, who was directly inspired by the Gardens, will also give a public talk revealing some of the methods he used to create his extraordinary artworks.
Also in July, the Gardens' manager of arboriculture Will Jones will lead a walk through the Melbourne Gardens to explore the seasonal changes taking place among the trees during the colder months.
Visitors can warm up after the Talking Trees walk with a botanical-inspired tea.
Next month participants can venture inside the National Herbarium of Victoria with the manager of collections, Pina Milne.
Founded in 1853 by Ferdinand von Mueller - Victoria's first government botanist - the herbarium is the state's oldest scientifc institution and home to the precious State Botanical Collection.
In September, Branch Out participants can try Forest Therapy - a wellbeing practice that immerses your senses in nature. The method is based on the Japanese practice of shinrin-yoku or "forest bathing" and is a guided experience set among the majestic trees of Melbourne Gardens.
- Paper Landscapes: Exhibition and Talk at Cranbourne Gardens, July 23, 11am, free, 5990-2200; Talking Trees at Melbourne Gardens, July 30, 11am, free, 9252-2429.

Informational meetings on the Etowah Aquatic Habitat Conservation Plan
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is hosting two informational meetings in August on the Etowah Aquatic Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP).
Thirteen local governments, including Bartow, Cherokee, Paulding and Pickens counties, submitted the conservation plan to the FWS to facilitate development while protecting three fish species, the federally endangered Etowah and amber darters and the threatened Cherokee darter. The plan is available for public comment through August 31.
Both public meetings will start with a one-hour poster session where attendees can learn more about the plan and ask questions. The FWS will then give a presentation on the plan and provide an opportunity for attendees to make comments. The meetings will begin at 5 p.m. and end at 7:30 p.m.
Since the meetings are not formal hearings, any comments made will need to be provided in writing to the FWS for consideration of the local governments applications for incidental take permits under the Etowah Aquatic HCP.

Last year when we finished recording When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes, we decided to record a few of the songs to be used as b-sides here and there.
26/ott/2011 18:41:11 RUDE RECORDS Contatta l'autore
"When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes is a record that sees its creators rediscovering their mojo, and embracing the kind of seemingly effortless songwriting qualities that made them so popular in the first place." - Kerrang!
YELLOWCARD Says YES Again... This Time – UNPLUGGED!
Releasing Acoustic Version of Latest Album HERE!
Album Streaming at AbsolutePunk NOW!
"Sing for Me Video" Debuts On MTV Networks today
2011 has been a banner year for Hopeless recording artists YELLOWCARD. Not only did they release their latest album WHEN YOU'RE THROUGH THINKING, SAY YES to critical acclaim and to the wide-open arms of fans both new and old, but they also released their back catalogue on vinyl and toured the world, seeing countries and fans they've never seen in-person before.
As a perfect cap to end the year and as a major "thank you" to their fans, they're re-releasing their WYTTSY - this time in acoustic form. It's a testament to the band's songwriting prowess that the unplugged version of this album takes the music to a whole new level while keeping the main spirit and soul of the songs intact.
It's been released digitally via iTunes and Amazon.com on Monday, TODAY, while the physical release date will be November 1, 2011 and exclusively available only at indie retailers.
To help herald its release, AbsolutePunk.net will begin streaming the album in its entirety beginning tonight prior to its release here: http://www.absolutepunk.net/artists/showlink.php?do=showdetails&l=1533. In addition, MTV Networks will be debuting the video for "Sing For Me" (electric version from the original album) on Tuesday, October 25th on MTV, MTV2, mtvU and MTV.com. The band issued the following statement regarding the release of the acoustic album:
Over the course of our career, Yellowcard has always taken pride and enjoyment in performing our songs in an acoustic setting whenever possible. Last year when we finished recording When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes, we decided to record a few of the songs to be used as b-sides here and there. Shortly after the release we noticed the incredible response that the acoustic version of "Sing For Me" was getting online. We thought, "What if we recorded all the songs this way and tried to get Hopeless Records to release it as an acoustic version of the entire record?" Lucky for us, they seemed to think that was a great idea. We began using every free day or night we had in early 2011 to finish recording all ten songs acoustically. One of the things we are most proud of is that we produced and mixed this entire record on our own. (Much credit is due to Ryan Mendez for his sleepless nights behind the computer.) This is something the band has wanted to do for a very long time and we have been so looking forward to surprising all of our fans with this record. It is the least we can do for the amazing support they have given us as we try to rebuild this career that we love so much. So here it is, When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes (Acoustic). It has been a hard secret to keep these last few months but we are confident that our fans will keep this album close to their hearts. It is both a huge accomplishment for us as a band and a massive thank you to all of the people who continue to stand behind this band. We hope you love it. - Ryan, Sean, Longineu, Ryan, and Sean
Yellowcard's seventh studio album When You're Through Thinking, Say Yes was released in March on Hopeless Records to unanimous acclaim and high chart positions worldwide, including #9 Alternative in Canada, #6 Alternative in Australia, #1 Indie Album Breakers in the UK and #19 on Billboard's Top 200 Albums in the U.S. The band is currently is touring again Europe in December ( Tour dates below)

[by Woorim Ahn] Kang Ho Dong laughed out loud when he saw a doppelganger cat.
On the upcoming episode of JTBC 'Mari and I', Kang Ho Dong met a cat called Ho Dong that looks exactly like him.
Ho Dong is a fat cat that his owner gave up. Kang Ho Dong couldn't stop laughing at his doppelganger cat when he saw the cat having the same look, name and body figure.
However, the cat was a coward one, so Kang Ho Dong decided to get familiar with Ho Dong.
Kang Ho Dong's mentor was Shim Hyung Tak, who is the king of commune. As he succeeds in making communes with all the animals, all the Mari fathers are jealous of him. Kang Ho Dong asked for advices and told him tips.
Meanwhile, Kang Ho Dong and his doppelganger cat Ho Dong's story will air on March 9. (photo by JTBC)

Dozens of pieces of original art featuring the proposed Scotchman Peaks Wilderness are created annually during two plein air events sponsored by Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness. The Scotchman Peaks Paintout, cosponsored by the Outskirts Gallery in Hope, Idaho, takes place in September. The Extreme Plein Air is a backcountry expedition in the tradition of Thomas Moran during which artists immerse themselves in the wilderness.
The art created in these events is sold to benefit the artist, Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness and the galleries in which they hang, supporting the arts as well as wilderness advocacy in Montana and Idaho.
Four of these paintings, from both the exterior and interior of the proposed wilderness, now grace a set of four note card to be used by the Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness as thank-you notes, donor appreciation gifts and some limited retail sails of sets of four cards. FSPW exec Phil Hough says, "These are a really beautiful way to support the artists who so graciously allowed us to use their images as well as to continue to get the message out about the Scotchmans."
Extreme Plein Air hikers Jared Shear and Aaron Johnson both contributed pieces painted in the heart of the wilderness, 48-Hour Pass from Johnson and Melissa Basin from Shear. Greg Caudell and Kenny Olsen, painting during the annual September Scotchman Peaks Paintout, contributed images of two iconic mountains of the Scotchmans, Scotchman Peak by Caudell and Sawtooth Mountain by Olsen.
The originals of these pieces, with the exception of Caudell's, are part of a collection of Scotchman Peaks art on display at the Outskirts Gallery in Hope, Idaho. Caudell's painting is on loan to Idaho's US Senator Mike Crapo, and hangs in his office in Washington, D.C. Art can also be viewed online here.
Sets of four will be available for $10 at Outskirts Gallery soon.
