Arlan Green –Moonbrite EP
9 comments:
In addition to McCartney, I Do has a fair bit of Pilot in the influence, methinks;
and he seems to be channeling his inner Elton in The Next Time; the other 2 tracks
are simply bonkers...

Agree totally. Funny I was going to mention Pilot, but I have referred to them too many times here!

Who is he indeed, I been searching his name and come up with nothing. I can't believe this artist didn't go on to work in the industry in some capacity, even if doing commercial jingles or something, he's just too talented to have been thrown away. Or perhaps having been shelved after such an epic burst of songwriting and vocal gymnastics he walked away in disgust and took up a real job. I thought these were crazy joke tunes, but the more I listen they become amazing works of music production and as mentioned, the vocals and writing are unique.

If this is the same Arlen Green I knew, he was a bit of a balmcake. He had, if it's the same guy, 3-4 huge record deals and this is the first time I've ever seen anything by him actually make it out of the studio. He was a friend of a female relative of mine that's how I have heard of him and one of his proposed single releases that never happened, was a song about my cousin. He ended up in the USA and if it's the same guy, went through right adventures over there.
From memory, after yet another deal fell through, he "quit" the biz and was making his way to somewhere when he had a "vision", returned to LA to find yet another record company had offered him another big deal.

Probably used as a demo to get a record deal, rather than a unreleased test press.. as quite a few copies have turned up for sale. A friend said he had a rolling Stones acetate on Bell ?? maybe that label did a few custom pressings ?

I knew an Arlan Green in 1979. He was the pianist and music director for Toast - the group that was playing with Davy Jones from Monkees fame. Arlan lived in California then and went back to England in 1980.
I hope this is the same guy. He was a nice guy and a great musician.
- 4:41 am
- Unknown said...
That'ts the one Debbie, my cousin was close friends with the lass who managed and married Davy Jones.
- 11:17 pm
Thanks for putting this up. I really enjoyed it. Arlan was my neighbor in West Hollywood in 1978 (?)Very talented unique individual. He wore a green jumpsuit embroidered with the saying "Let's do Lunch" with official red clown shoes. I think he wrote or co-wrote "Baby, You'll soon be 16" which was a hit for Davey Jones around 1980 and previously for another band (Bay City Rollers?) He had a contract with Arista, which may have been where these demo pressings originated, not sure. Brilliant pianist, writer and performer.

Thank you! I lost touch with him once he returned to England and wonder about him sometimes!

HSBC rolls out digital wallet to lure start-ups
HSBC has quietly launched its first digital wallet targeting start-ups and other small businesses in Hong Kong in an effort to fend off intensifying competition from Tencent and Alibaba in its most lucrative market. The move to expand its mobile wallet service for commercial use also may help shore up HSBC's position in Hong Kong against a challenge from two of China's biggest companies - Alibaba, through its financial services arm Ant Financial, and Tencent. The GBA project, designed to pull the former European colonies of Hong Kong and Macau closer to mainland China, is an area comprising nearly 70m people, with a $1.5tn economy that HSBC expects to grow to $2.8tn by 2025. Virtual banking services are only available to people and businesses resident in Hong Kong, meaning they provide nothing HSBC can't already offer customers, said Kevin Martin, HSBC's head of retail banking and wealth management for Asia-Pacific. The digital battle is part of a broader struggle by UK-headquartered HSBC to retain its dominant position in the semi-autonomous city, where it has a 150-year history.

Bold opulence meets moody metallics in the first House Rules reveal
6 May 2019
Darker interiors make a bold statement and create a warm, inviting space, but it's a fine line between gloomy and grand as the House Rules teams discovered in this week's first whole house reveal.
Dressing Room by Lisa & Andy
What they did: An electric clothes rack and lush red wallpaper gave this room the 'X-tra' factor
Get the look: Install task lighting such as our Dalis spots and tracks in a walk-in robe. You can direct the spotlights to highlight shelving and bounce the light off the walls to create a pleasant ambience.
Bathroom/Nursery by Katie & Alex
What they did: The judges loved the opulence of the green tiling matched with the burgundy towels in the bathroom. With stars on the ceiling and a stunning 'moonlight' feature light, the baby's room was also a big hit.
Get the look: Recreate Katie and Alex's bathroom with our Baristo Up/Down wall lights on either side of your mirror. In bedrooms, replace traditional pictures or artwork with our LEDlux Disk spots to bring a dreamy ambience to a space.
Kitchen/Guest Bedroom by Tim & Matt
What they did: Tim and Matt decked the kitchen with dark cabinetry and 'James Bond' like gadgets, while the guest bedroom wowed the judges with a geometric feature wall.
Get the look: If you want a dark palette in your kitchen, ensure the space is well-lit with our Dalis spot lights and tracks for task lighting. In the bedroom, choose a simple and elegant design like our Marcel pendant.
Lounge by Mikaela and Eliza
What they did: It was all about texture, colour and sophistication with a black feature wall making the most of the new fireplace.
Get the look: Highlight a dark corner with a cluster of our Ando pendants with metallic finish.
Entry/Laundry by Shayn & Carly
What they did: By painting the walls a rich, opulent blue, Shayn & Carly set the tone for a moody interior.
Get the look: Make a great first impression with statement lighting such as our Phoenix pendant. Strip lighting under cabinetry gives a functional space depth and warmth.
Love the look? Shop the products from Beacon Lighting, proud suppliers to House Rules. Shop in-store or online.

No man can accuse me of hating animals. Yet no cultivated love exists between myself and the rest of the world's species. In truth, even if allergies had not impaired any lasting relationship – a true dander divorce – I am too well-acquainted with the responsibility of live-in pets to accept any non-human residents into my home. I have found that helping my folks with the siblings is akin to raising a band of wild wolves anyhow. My life requires no more wildlife, especially birds.
Most animal activists never grew up among chickens. Of this, I am sure. No, most likely as a child they retain fond of memories of Fluffy the rabbit or Tigger the cat, creatures with which you can cuddle or pet. Soft creatures that purred, nuzzled, or fetched. You try any of that nonsense with a chicken, and you might lose an eye, a nose, or a liver. Most assuredly you will lose all humanitarian credos, all faith in the notion that "Man's Best Friend" can be anything other than a bottle of Scotch. This I say with all seriousness, a bias formed from personal experience . . . and therefore as such is entirely true. If most Americans lived among chickens – raising, feeding, cleaning, watering, and occasionally carrying those feather-born demons – PETA would be nothing more than flatbread, cock-fighting would be annexed as the national sport, and I could easily buy Chick-Fil-A on Sundays.
Everyday before school, I would slip, slide, and breathe heavily downhill to the chicken coop near the base of woods. Suitably enough, most of the rainwater would gather at the base of this hill before trickling under- or aboveground to the adjacent ponds and streams, forming a marsh of fetid mud and slime, a haven for flies and mosquitoes of all sizes and varieties. This I would traverse to the edge of the bramble-soaked woods to the small shack, where the chicken's dwelt. Most of the time this daily exercise would consist of scraping the food and water containers, cleaning out the excess – and putrid – waste from their coop, gathering slime molded eggs, and avoid losing my fingers to the pecking beaks of this demon band. During the summer months, as the air warmed and humidity rose, the wall above the coop door would collect with mud-built hives of wasps and bees, which I could either deftly avoid (rarely) or attack with a shovel (haphazardly missing). Either way due to the thick mud and swarming birds, I rarely avoided several stinging welts upon my head. The birds, if they could, laughed and cackled riotously. On the return journey up the hill, I trudge through the muck while big black flies bite and hummingbird-sized mosquitoes stab at me with their long proboscises like a straw inserted into a juice-box. At the top of the hill, drained of energy, will, and blood, I then cleaned myself for school, a welcome vacation from the "farm."
Two years ago while on vacation, we asked a friend of the family to watch over the chickens: feed them, give them water, and collect the eggs. The coop was build with two sections: a large indoor shack with a small latched opening (to hamper invading foxes and weasels) and a outdoor fence. Typically when gathering water and food dispensers, we shoo the chickens through the opening and latch the door, so we can collect eggs quickly and easily. For you see, our rooster had become quite territorial. A whirling dervish of claws and feathers. Our friend did not know this. As he entered the coop, the rooster charged him, flying at him with claws extended like a kung-foo kick. He received several large gashes along his leg for his work, and many many apologetic thanks from the rest of us. Later that week, Mom cooked disgruntled chicken soup for dinner and the safety of the little ones.
Then there's the smell. Oh, how many of my mornings, once full of color and warmth – emerald-green leaves caked in golden dewdrops; branches dripping opals of raindrops with sapphire pupils of the dawn sky – have been defiled by the fetid stench of the nearby coop infecting the passing storm breeze? Believe me, it frickin' smells. I take one last longing gaze at the morning, and then barricade myself in my room. Piles of furniture, books, dental floss, shoes, chairs, and coat hangers construct an impenetrable wall, blocking every crevice. With a clap, electronic fans of all varieties whirl and turn like a manmade typhoon. As the book pages begin to flap, I relax allowing the scents of the artificial room to send me to sleep, awaking every now and then as a loud howling cluck splits the air.
To be fair though, I cannot suffer most smells that emanate from the barnyard. I walk through the stalls at the county fairs like a doctor examining plague victims, my nose and mouth masked to allow for ample breathing, my hands protected in overly-long sleeves. The kids meanwhile frolic and play about the maze of pig pens and cages, unconcerned about what they touch or where they step. In a nearby cot, my brother lies on a cot and chews on Doritoes, whiles his pig, Porky, grunts and squeals next door. Every so often his hand passes a chip through the bars, like a letter through a mail slot; his hand now sticky and wet is wiped on his jeans and reflexively returns to the bag. He consumes another chip. I try not to gag.
UPDATE: I am now adding cattle to the ever-growing list of animals best-fried-than-alive. Yesterday our cows got loose and scamper onto the nearby highway. My sister witnessed cars careening between yellow and white lines, narrowly avoiding collisions with the silly creatures. The animals remained unharmed though, apparently bored among the grass-less asphalt and capered off into the neighbor's yard for some food. Despite the fortuitous absence in accidents, the sudden fear of tragedy, animal mutilation, and lawsuits left my family and me visibly shaken. Eventually though using some honey-soaked grains as bait, we managed to lure the creatures back in their paddock and repair the broken fence. Cows, for those unfamiliar with livestock, are extremely strong. As I held the bucket of grains, one of them managed to stick its head into the blue bucket and literally push me like a dog with a rag-doll. Afterwards we cleaned ourselves up, got some lunch, and took a nap, our bellies fat with cheeseburger.

- Get the timing right.
Many people are afraid to request for training budget, because they can't seem to find the "perfect time" to do it. Well, there's no perfect time to ask for it, but there are definitely some moments that are better than others. For instance, if your boss is about to take a two week vacation, he/she might be in a good mood. If he/she just lost a major account, may not be wise at that juncture.
- Make a case for yourself
When you ask for budget, you should be prepared with specific details and explanations about what is in it for the company and you're superior. If you go into a meeting and just say, "I want to get budget for a conference," it's likely that your request won't be taken seriously. If you want to plan ahead, then you should be prepared to explain the following points:
1. Start by stating your accomplishments
2. Show that you're ready for more responsibility and eager to learn
3. Describe:
a) How this event will increase your productivity?
b) How you will need less supervision
c) How you can bring back the knowledge to the company
4. Follow up

Expandable container houses can be seen on some constru […]
Expandable container houses can be seen on some construction sites, which is more practical and convenient. How to reform the container and what knowledge do you need to know? Xiao Bian will talk about this with you next.
How to reform containers
1. Protective measures:
Influenced by the physical characteristics of its own metal structure, container materials have strong thermal conductivity and poor thermal insulation performance, which make the indoor thermal environment unstable. An additional thermal insulation layer is required to effectively control the thermal environment in the control room. In the southern region, the container body needs to be sunshaded for thermal insulation, thus saving an energy consumption expense. In addition, the box body is easy to rust, and antirust paint needs to be painted inside and outside the container to prevent rust.
It should be noted that in order to prevent the spread of diseases and insect pests during international shipping, chromate, phosphorus-containing or lead-containing paint is often used in container paints produced in some countries. Therefore, the origin of the containers must be identified before making them into shops. For some containers, the original residual paint must be polished off before they can be safely used.
2. Standardized units:
Container architecture is characterized by standardization of size. The Container architecture unit comes from off-the-shelf containers and is limited by the size of the existing containers. Most containers have uniform size limits on their external dimensions. Of the three commonly used sizes, the usable net space is relatively cramped, the indoor height is relatively low, and the transverse space is narrow and long. Full consideration of ergonomics will greatly affect the customer's experience and building quality. You can stack up several container boxes, but you should fully consider the structure and safety, not to mention the vertical space, which requires a stronger structure to stabilize.
3. Service life:
The service life of containers in the transportation industry is generally 10-15 years. The eliminated undamaged container body still has good physical properties and can be used for 15 years. If it is well maintained or matched with other structures such as concrete, it can last longer ~
4. Appearance:
The best principle is that it can become a delicate exhibit in the city, and at the same time, it can let customers see that the building originates from containers, which can more embody the flavor of novelty and art.
To lead new elements into urban space. The treatment of appearance generally starts with color and shape. Color and pattern are very suitable for literary and artistic styles. Customers locate young groups. Shape is to place several boxes in different sizes, angles and heights to create some space for overhead, balcony and corridor. This is a very basic construction method in architectural design. Even the layman can try it. Be careful not to create acute triangular spaces and spaces that cannot be used by the human body. Let's look at several common vertical spatial relationships.

Sun Tile and Ceramic has been designing and remodeling homes and businesses since 1987. Come visit our showroom and be overwhelmed by all of the variety of choices and themes, and then let us guide you to design the motif that you are seeking.
Color schemes, accent pieces and textures are just some of the elements of designing that we understand to help bring your visualizations to fruition.
During times of poor economy everyone is seeking to save some money. However, it is this same reason that lower pricing has produced poor craftmanship. Workers have to produce more in less time to justify their wages and consequently quality of performance is lost. Many have tried to cut out the middle man and have dealt directly with workers in which many are unlicensed and uneducated about the codes and laws pertaining to their particular fields: this lessens the lasting quality of the work performed as many jobs are not up to code.
We at Sun Tile and Ceramic are licensed by the State of California, #738776, and we are bonded and insured: we guarantee all of our work. Our promise is perform our contract with you in a timely manner to the best of our ability (barring other fields related to our work that must be accomplished before we can finish our work, bad weather or other factors (such as power outages) or acts of Nature that are beyond our control). The quality of work, we assure you, is some of the best in the industry, bar none.
This is just a placeholder, so you can see what the site would look like.
This is just a placeholder, so you can see what the site would look like.

This is just a placeholder, so you can see what the site would look like.
If you're having problems editing this website template, then don't hesitate to ask for help on the Forums.
Word of mouth goes a long way, and our reputation has placed us at the top of the pyramid in our industry. According to code, quality of performance, quality of work: that's what Sun Tile and Ceramic is all about.
Whatever you've seen and want to replicate, or whatever you want to design, we will work with you to create your visions.
Imaginations, dreams visualizations, ceativity, customization and then building and bringing those dreams to real life is what we are good at.
Limitless! Fear of failure will dampen your imagination and creativity.
Of equal importance are the bathrooms. Men and women alike love to personalize this room.
Flooring can change the entire motif of one's home.
Kitchens are the most important part of your home according to the ladies of the house.
Now offering Caesar Stone which is one of the best quality quartz for counter tops.
SileStone has been added to our portfolio. Offering a high quality quartz as Caesar Stone, SileStone brings additional colors, textures and designs for that unique look that you've been searching for.
The well-known Cambria line of quartz is now being offered by Sun Tile and Ceramic. And, if these top three quartz companies do not have what you are looking for, then we also offer Legacy quartz by Verona Marble, Wilsonart, Color Quartz and the Quantra line of quartz surfaces.
As we have compiled a wide variety of quartz natural stones for our customers to select from, we have never swayed from our opinion that granite is still the most beautiful natural stone for counter tops or any other applications such as: barbeques, stair cases and steps, solid surface showers, jacuzzi decks, fire places and more.
Our showroom portfolio includes a vast array of ceramic tile, porcelain tile, natural stones (granite, marble, travertine, limestone, slate, onyx, quartz) and other man made materials and composites and conglomerates. We have a nice selection of cabinets for any application whether it's pre fab or custom built to include self closing drawers and doors, plate racks, bottle racks, stem glass racks, valances, decorative corbels and columns, glass doors, diagonal corner cabinets, end shelves and more. We have a complete line of glass mosaics, liners and inserts made out of a variety of materials and colors to enhance the look of your design. We offer murals, pebblestones of different shapes and sizes, glass blocks, and hand made and hand painted tiles. We have more than a modest selection of wood and laminate flooring along with base boards and crown molding. We also stock a complete line of maintenace cleaners and sealers for all natural stones and grout.
Newly added is a life time sealer for granite and glass offered by Innovative Sealing Solutions using the latest nano-technology.

Last week I started talking about planning your summer garden. I think all that talk about summer made mother nature smile! It has been really warm here this past week (40's in January in my neck of the woods is incredibly warm!), and it looks like it will continue for a few days.
I concentrated on planning for your seed purchase in my last post. A large part of that seed purchase is to consider what your family will eat. I am lucky in the fact that my kids love veggies from the garden, so we grow a variety of foods to eat. What I have trouble with is trying to figure out how to best utilize the space that I have to grow as much as humanly possible.
I am constantly trying to figure out how much of each vegetable my family will eat. It is a goal of mine (and has been for a couple of years now) to grow what we would eat for one season. I haven't come close yet. It seems like each year I either don't plant enough, or I plant too much, I can never seem to plant the right amount. Why is that?
I think part of the problem is I underestimate what my kids will want. Last year I didn't can any dilly beans. I knew that my kids liked them, but I also knew that we would be getting dilly beans on occasion from our winter pantry CSA. I felt like there was no need! Unfortunately, I was completely wrong. Jack LOVES dilly beans. He chooses them for a snack almost as much as fruit. So this year, I plan to plant a lot of green beans so that I can make dilly beans.
I figure I am still learning though, so I am giving myself grace. But, considering I want to have a more subsistence lifestyle, I think it would be good if I could get my act together!
Some of the resources that I am utilizing this year are:
The Backyard Homestead: Produce all the food you need on just a quarter acre!
I love this book. It is a little bit like a fairy tale to think that you could live in a community where all of the laws allow all of these animals/gardens etc. But, it is something that I strive for in our community. We are allowed chickens currently, and right now they are working on a small farm animal ordinance. This means I could get a goat! – I haven't mentioned it to Matt yet. What I really like about this book is the hope that it gives. If I continue to work each year, perhaps we will get to a point where we can produce a majority of our food!
This book is great for people that are gardening in small spaces. I talked a little bit last week about making sure you have the spacing you need when planning what you will plant. I use the spacing suggestions in this book. It makes a lot of sense to me, and planting in such a small space as I do, I want to make the best use of every square inch.
Reader's Digest Illustrated Guide to Gardening
This is a book that I took from my mom. It has so much information in it. I don't know if they print these Reader's Digest books anymore, but I also have the Complete Guide to Needlework, which obviously has nothing to do with gardening, but has so much great information I figured I would mention it! These Reader's Digest books are the best how to books I have found. They seem to have the most detailed steps to follow, which is helpful when you are trying to teach yourself.
Back to Basics: A Complete Guide to Traditional Skills
This book is not only about gardening. I love to learn how people used to do things, before we had so many "advances." I see a lower energy future, so I want to make sure that I know enough about these skills that I can pass onto my kids. However, there is also a lot of great information for gardening and then also putting up the food for the winter.
The final resource that I use is my mom. She always had a garden when I was growing up, and I think I took it for granted. I really had no desire to learn any of it when I was younger, and I am kicking myself now. Whenever I am talking about gardening with my mom, she always seems to come up with something related to what I am saying, and it always makes me thing "huh, why didn't I know that?" If you have an older relative, or friend, or neighbor; ask them about gardening. You would be surprised with all the knowledge they may have.
What are your favorite resources for garden planning? Do you wing it, or do you plan down to each square inch?

Our Neighbours Agriculture is a project that was started in 2015. The aim is to grow crops and rear chickens that will help to provide food for the various parts of the work of Our Neighbours in Bulawayo (including Isaiah's Babies Home) and also generate income.
The project is being overseen by a graduate from the Ebenezer Agricultural Training Centre. Arable crops are being grown consisting of Maize, Tomatoes, Onions, Baby Marrow/Zucchini, Butternut, Green Beans, Peas, Carrots and Chomolia/Kale. Broiler chickens are also being produced, but the numbers need to increase for financial viability.
The rainfall in Bulawayo is very low compared with the UK and the seasons are unpredictable. For crop production on a larger scale, a drip irrigation system is required.
While the project must become self-sustaining, initial start-up costs are not inconsiderable and we will be delighted if you feel able to partner with us in helping to meet some of these.

The European economy is forecast to continue expanding for the seventh year in a row in 2019, with real GDP expected to grow in all EU Member States. As global uncertainties continue to weigh, domestic dynamics are set to support the European economy. Growth is expected to gather pace again next year. The recent slowdown in global growth and world trade,
together with high uncertainty about trade policies, is weighing on prospects for Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth in 2019 and 2020. The continued weakness of the manufacturing sector also plays a role, especially in those countries encountering specific problems in the automobile industry.
GDP slowdown to bottom out in 2019. As global trade and growth are expected to remain weaker this year and next compared to the brisk pace seen in 2017, economic growth in Europe will rely entirely on domestic activity. More Europeans are now in work than ever and employment growth is expected to continue, albeit at a slower pace. This, together with rising wages, muted inflation, favourable financing conditions and supportive fiscal measures in some Member States, is expected to buoy domestic demand. All in all, GDP is forecast to grow by 1.4% in the EU this year and 1.2% in the euro area.
In 2020, adverse domestic factors are expected to fade and economic activity outside the EU to rebound, supported by easing global financial conditions and policy stimulus in some emerging economies. GDP growth next year is forecast to strengthen slightly to 1.6% in the EU and 1.5% in the euro area. The figures for 2020 also benefit from a higher number of working days that year.
Unemployment continues to fall. Labour market conditions continued to improve despite the slowdown in growth towards the end of 2018. While still too high in certain Member States, unemployment in the EU - at 6.4% in March 2019 - has fallen to the lowest rate recorded since the start of the monthly data series in January 2000. Unemployment in the euro area is currently at the lowest rate since 2008.
Over the next two years, the rate of employment growth is expected to slow as the impact of more moderate growth takes its toll and temporary fiscal measures in some Member States fade. The unemployment rate is expected to continue to fall in the EU in 2019 and is set to reach 6.2% in 2020. The unemployment rate in the euro area is forecast to fall to 7.7% in 2019 and to 7.3% in 2020, lower than it was before the crisis began in 2007.
Inflation to remain subdued. Inflation in the EU is expected to fall to 1.6% this year before rising to 1.7% in 2020. Euro area headline inflation dropped from 1.9% in the last quarter of 2018 to 1.4% in the first quarter of this year due to lower increases of energy prices. With energy price inflation expected to moderate further in the coming quarters and little sign that higher wage growth has been fuelling underlying price pressures, euro area inflation (Harmonised Index of Consumer Prices) is forecast to reach 1.4% in both 2019 and 2020.
Public debt to continue falling despite lower growth. Debt-to-GDP ratios are forecast to fall in most Member States in 2019 and 2020 as deficits remain low and nominal GDP growth should remain higher than the average interest rate on outstanding debt. Assuming no policy change, the debt-to-GDP ratio of the EU is forecast to fall from 81.5% in 2018 to 80.2% in 2019 and 78.8% in 2020. The euro area's aggregate debt-to-GDP ratio should fall from 87.1% in 2018 to 85.8% in 2019 and 84.3% in 2020.
The aggregate government deficit of the EU is expected to rise from 0.6% of GDP in 2018 to 1% in both 2019 and 2020. It is also expected to rise in the euro area, from 0.5% of GDP in 2018 to 0.9% in 2019 and to remain unchanged in 2020, assuming no policy change. The increase this year is mainly due to slower GDP growth and expansionary fiscal policies in some Member States.
Risks to the outlook remain prominent. Downside risks to the outlook remain prominent. The risk of protectionist measures worldwide and the current slowdown in world GDP growth and trade could turn out to be more persistent than expected, particularly if growth in China disappoints. In Europe, risks include that of a 'no-deal' Brexit and the possibility that temporary disruptions currently weighing on manufacturing could prove more enduring. There is also the risk that a rise in political uncertainty and less growth-friendly policies could result in a pull-back in private investment.
On the positive side, private consumption and investment in the EU could prove more resilient than expected, particularly if confidence among business and consumers was less sensitive to uncertainty and domestic headwinds, and if it were accompanied by stronger-than-assumed fiscal policy measures in countries with fiscal space and growth-enhancing reforms.
For the UK, a purely technical assumption for 2019. In the light of the process of the withdrawal of the UK from the EU, projections for 2019 and 2020 are based on a purely technical assumption of status quo in terms of trading patterns between the EU27 and the UK. This is for forecasting purposes only and has no bearing on the process underway in the context of Article 50.

Countdown, Day 28, 3 days left til Halloween: Night Of The Demons (1988)

This little gem was made in 1988, and starred scream queen Linnea Quigley and Amelia Kinkade as Angela. Spooky Angela decides to host a Halloween party at an old funeral parlor. Things quickly start getting dull after the power goes out so Angela suggests séance, which unwittingly unleashes a demon and all hell breaks loose! This 80s cheesefest is actually a fun film to watch, and of course takes place in Halloween night! Night Of The Demons actually spawned 2 sequels and recent remake. Be careful when you conduct your séances on Halloween night, you might get what you wish for!

iOS APPs:
Made by CD-Mediaworks' founder Christopher Coey for faculty from the Linguistics department at the University of Victoria, these great Educational APPs have been downloaded a combined total of more than 50 thousand times and continue to gain attention and momentum!
This APP provides a unique and intuitive touch interface for exploring the International Phonetic Alphabet as well as numerous voice qualities and articulations. Simply press any symbol or label in the charts to see and hear an illustrative example.
Test your knowledge by playing the random guessing games. Amazing laryngoscopic and ultrasound videos accompany sounds articulated in the throat!
You can speed up and slow down all the video examples, view full-screen, and more! Press the INFO button on each screen to access additional information. Get it for your iPhone or iPAD here!
The Yati Dictionary APP contains over 1300 words and phrases with sounds, pictures, example sentences and other important information from the Tlicho Dene language, which you may hear spoken in the Northwest Territories of Canada.
Best of all, you can add your own words and pictures too! Compare your voice to the professional recordings, create wordlists, and more! We are continually improving this APP with even more phrases, example sentences, and more!
This APP is used daily by hundreds of Aboriginal speakers of the NWT and is part of the Education Cirriculum in this region.
Last year, this APP was honoured by making the Top 5 list for language preservation software by the CBC!
Read about it here:

Digital Business Cards:
For this project CD-Mediaworks created a custom Windows
multimedia program reproduced on 3" CD-R media for use as digital
business cards and tradeshow promotional material. This interactive tour
--complete with MPEG video and JPG photo slideshow was produced within
two weeks on a very tight budget.
Coastal pictures is a large local video production house that very often requires the services of CD-Mediaworks in a sub-contracting capacity. For this project, a Hollywood actor (J.B. Bivens) required an innovative "demo reel" of his recent film work and other credits -- and of course a slick way to pull it all together. CD-Mediaworks created this application in less than a week.
The end result is a product that is a totally self-contained
Mini-CD that runs automatically on any computer, without the need for
any installation or configuration settings.
This project came to CD-Mediaworks through another sub-contracting arrangement with Best Color Video. The client required HTML-type content to be presented in a self-contained custom program- without any reliance on a specific Web Browser or other platform dependencies. The client also wanted to control the "browsing" experience through the use of custom (simplified) navigation controls in the pursuit of accessibility. The resulting project was a small footprint "custom HTML browser" with MPEG movie and Print capabilities.
For the project pictured below a playback engine was created to house instructional screen-captured videos for a client to the South. From all accounts this is still in use today!

Question Description
1. Accrual accounting is required under U.S. GAAP. One of the main principles of accrual
accounting is the Matching Principle, also known as the Revenue Recognition
Principle and the Expense Recognition Principle. Pick one of these and describe
it. Why is it important?
2. How would you describe the difference between cash basis accounting and accrual basis
accounting? What types of companies are required to use accrual basis of
accounting? Are there any companies that can use cash basis accounting?
3.Every time a company prepares financial statements, adjusting entries are required.
Generally, financial statements are prepared at the end of each month, the end
of each quarter and at the end of each year. There are two categories of
adjusting entries: Accruals and Deferrals. Pick one of the adjusting entries
(Prepaid expenses, unearned revenues, accrued revenues or accrued expenses),
indicate whether it is an accrual or deferral, explain why it is important and
provide an example.
4.Step 6 in the accounting cycle is to prepare an adjusted trial balance. Just to review,
we are working through the accounting cycle. We have been discussing the
following steps: 1: Analyze business transactions, 2: Journalize the
transactions, 3: Post the journal entries to ledger accounts, 4. Prepare a
trial balance, 5. Journalize and post adjusting entries for deferrals/accruals,
6. Prepare an adjusted trial balance. How would you explain the purpose of the
adjusted trial balance to someone who knew nothing about it?
Each can be 60-70 words

Jo Gerrard writes about her search for the elusive corncrake on the tiny island of Iona.
I sit at the long wooden table: highly polished, sticky circular residue soiling the shine, a bowl of imitation iron fillings – I investigate with taste; it was locally sourced seaweed, dried and crushed into sprinkle sized portions. As I pick out the remnants of the sea vegetable from my molars I am asked the usual conversation starter question: 'What brings you to Iona?'
I pause. I inhale a long deep breath. I hesitantly reply, aware of the mawkish response: 'I just woke up one day with it on my mind.' There is a nod of recognition. Most people seem to have had the same experience; the same answer to the same question. It's like a phone ringing and ringing waiting for someone to answer the call. I picked it up. So did the middle-aged man opposite me, and the woman sat on the sofa whilst reading a book about migrant birds. The only one who didn't is the elderly man I shared a room with. He had been dumped here by his family who were on holiday in Scotland. The conversation had been soundtracked by a long-haired man sat crossed legged in the corner strumming a guitar. I called him 'two chords' as that appeared to be all he knew. It was apt; the same repetitive revelation spoken to the same repetitive C and G chords.
The small talk ends abruptly. The door swings open. A woman in her 40s bounds in with the respiratory effort of someone crossing the finish line of a marathon.
'I've … seen … one!' she wheezed in-between words. 'I've … seen … a … corncrake!'
The scattering of people in the communal room make coos of congratulations and awe. Even Two-chords downs the guitar for a brief moment to acknowledge her great feat of observation. The woman pulls at a tube hanging out from her rucksack that was still laden on her shoulders. She sucks on it like her life depended on it. It probably does; the tube was connected to an oxygen canister. This woman had hiked over the island for days seeking out this bird – with a heavy gaseous bottle on her back which was her lifeline – yet I was lolling about dreamily. I'd achieved little other than a 'Celtic tan' (my skin was beginning to match the hue of the red ensign flag), and a few pictures of oystercatchers. And now I am brimming with curiosity: what was this corncrake? And what made it so special?
Corncrakes are not much bigger than a blackbird, and are related to coots and moorhens – however, unlike them, corncrakes live on dry-land. Their scientific name crex crex is onomatopoeic; their call is rasping like two wooden combs being rubbed together. I'd heard it many times on the island. I knew it was a corncrake, yet I was never really compelled to seek it out. I wanted to see whales, dolphins, eagles – I wanted the full tourist experience! The big hitters! I wasn't interested in small ground-nesting birds. When I was back at home I looked into this troubled bird. Changes in farming habits has meant the population has declined dramatically in recent years, with up to 60% of chicks being killed by usual mowing practices. What also prods my intrigue is how, up until relatively recently, people believed they went underground, or turned into moorhens in the winter. When so much mystery has been uncovered, the corncrake clings onto an air of myth. It has been found as far as the Congo, and Kathleen Jamie called them 'Little Gods of the Field' in her book, 'Findings'. That is what they are: mysterious, elusive, and if we listen we can hear their call, but we rarely see them. I now have an unquenchable thirst. I must see a corncrake.
The next three visits to Iona I made attempts to spot one. I camped out in tent-breaking gales, torrential rain, a brief spell of unseasonal snow, and blazing heat. I heard corncrakes everywhere. They teased and taunted me with their crex crex that seemed to be coming from every direction. I visited the puffins on Staffa again, I saw dolphins, whales, a black otter, seals, oystercatchers, sandlings, dunlins, plovers … a whole array of wildlife … but no corncrake. I give-up. I admit defeat. Perhaps it is just the thought of them that is magical. Maybe it is like Christmas Day, when after all the presents have been opened there is a slight pang of disappointment – the anticipation has been dissolved into empty boxes and torn paper. The myth of the corncrake is the charm. I don't want to see one. I don't want the magic to go.
On the next visit I relax. I sit on the beach reading and watching the ring-necked plovers run in and out with the tide. I look for green stone, witnessed spectacular sunsets, and hike across the little island to the most inaccessible parts – envious of the buzzards above cruising the thermals as I wearily wish I was fitter. As part of my tradition formed by a solitary mind, I run up Dun I and wash my face in the Font of Youth (still awaiting results), and then slowly descend the hill which seemed to be getting more perilous after each trip. I stroll back along the road heading to the White Strands beach (allegedly where monks had been repeatedly slaughtered by Vikings) when … what was that? In my periphery I spot something small and brown. I turn my head. A downy looking bird stares back at me. We both freeze for a split second, both shocked by the existence of one another. Then it bolts across the field into the undergrowth: gawkish, inelegant, much like Sesame Street's Beaker in a panic.
I am annoyed, but the rush of adrenaline betrayed my outward peevishness. I saw a corncrake. There was no one around to share my joy. I grab my phone and searched for someone to text – no one I knew would be interested, but I am. I care. I'd seen this bird and someone was going to hear about it. Then I remembered: there is no phone reception on this island.
The next day is my last on Iona. I do the usual as my tradition dictates: wander the shops, light a candle in the chapel, have a Windswept beer, and panic a little about weather vs ferry. I stroll up towards the Machair and spot a small crowd at the foot of a private garden. They hold up cameras and phones all pointing at this patch of long grass. I hear a nearby crex crex. My pace unconsciously increases in speed like an inner desire has overtaken my legs and now marched them to stand beside a camo-clad man holding a long lens that probably cost more than my car. I sidle up beside him; he appears to be the best to befriend at this moment.
'It's just there,' he says, pointing at the grass. His grey beard doesn't conceal the satisfied warm smile. 'Just up from that rock.'
I see it. Between the blades of lush green grass and pink wild flowers is a Little God of the Field calling out to the females. It is so close I can see its beak opening as it crex crex. I've now seen two corncrakes in as many days, and this time it has been shared with equally as surprised spectators, and equally as in awe of this bird.
I don't stick around for long. I don't want to take the moment for granted. I've stepped into this magical world of the corncrake long enough and do not want to impose like an over-staying guest. I thank the birder and go on my way. I meander up onto the beach with a contented step and watch the plovers running in and out with the ebb tide. I while away the hours as I wait for my ferry just finding joy in being part of the landscape: quiet, still, observing, alone. Slowly I begin to understand the call from this little Isle in the West. Iona.
Jo Gerrard is currently studying the MA in Wild Writing at the University of Essex after completing her undergraduate in Creative Writing at Greenwich. Her main interests lie in faeries and folklore, however she is a keen birder and often loiters in the shadows with binoculars seeking out those feathered friends.

Run Over by a Car Show
Yesterday was the BIG car show in here. B is an big wheel in the car club, and my presence at the show was deemed critical to him. Sort of my coming out party in car-guy terms. This event is held in conjunction with a gigantic, sanctioned BBQ competition, 5K Run, and softball tournaments… in short, the place is crawling with people… cars, motorcycles, street vendors, volunteers, and me. While that is no problem for the average person and I despise being any sort of Victim(TM) every once in a while, it comes back to haunt me.
B left to help with the set-up for the show at 5:15 am. My job was to help with registration tables starting at 8. I took the extra time to ensure that the girls had breakfast, I ironed my clothes, curled my hair and carefully applied make-up. I was show-ready like the cars that would be displayed, and ready to meet The. Inner. Circle. Even though I could have gone with him at the crack of before dawn, my plan was to be all shined up and meet him at the appointed time, which I did; and I looked like $70K dollars worth of wicked steel, chrome and paint:
1960's "Gasser" engine detail, a high-octane-fueled beast that is highly detailed and wickedly fast despite a rather conservative outward appearance
I left the kids my phone so they could text B in case of problems, and left for the show about 7:45. "Meet me at the registration table, baby." OK, armed with my parking pass and nothing else, I arrived to the already large, noisy crowd, and I knew virtually no one at all. Two cups of coffee and three cigarettes later, I was ready to go find B, but he wasn't there. Ten minutes. I am alone, ALONE, in the crowd and then it sets in…
where is he…look for the bright green shirts…he is waiting for you…no one is staring at you…this place is safe…he will be here…check where they are setting up barricades…people are not staring at you…no one can see your heart beating…chat with a familiar person…he's here, be patient…you're supposed to be here…calm the fuck down…(flashback)…stop shaking…oh, shit tears…my heartbeat is louder than the cars, people can hear my hear beat…FUCK…go to the truck and get the fuck out of here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I felt like this truck looks. It appears to be all beat to hell by the world and time, in reality, it is fake, fake, fake. The rust and body filler are as fake as my very padded bra and the inside of this pile of crap is a brand new creation, and painstaking labor of love lies at the heart of this beast and the world never sees it, only those who are privileged to take a peek under the hood.
The problem is that I *was* this truck. Together, we saw the world around us: all distorted in a grotesque reflection of reality…
Yeah, that is a small fraction of what happens during a panic attack… 25 minutes felt like five hundred years. I cried and then vomited on the 6 mile trip back to the house. Adrenaline is NOT my friend… I texted to tell him of the fiasco, thinking that he would be very understanding… Which He Wasn't. My expectation of what I could handle was too high. B had been called away to trouble shoot the sound system on top of a freaking building, not his fault…He was not impressed, but he caught on a little and we reformulated a plan. I changed clothes, re-applied make up and he was waiting for me at the pre-designated location. It took less than no time at all for him to get the full picture… Even once I felt more calm and reassured, with B there, I thought then, that I looked like this to crowd:
Felt like i was being judged, too.
In reality, once I was there with B and he outfitted me with a protective coating of a "Event Staff" t-shirt, and some introductions to other key players there, I calmed down and enjoyed the show. Before he had to attend to his judging duties at the show, he had me get my weapon of choice for defending myself against the outside world, I prefer to use a Canon. and following is how that worked out for me. The dreadful tunnel vision of PTSD and the "hypervigilance" that goes along with it, make me see the world a little differently than most of you. Here are the results:
Who goes to a car show and doesn't take pics of cars??? Yep, me. This pics is only missing apple pie, like the MILF, apple pie and Chevrolet days of old.
Ceresco Hatchery Rat Rod… the level of de-TAIL here is unparalleled!
Love this sign. This truck is driven nearly daily and it is a work in progress, unlike the totally finished Lincoln next to it, owned by the same guy. I hope he doesn't ruin the truck by fixing it up too much.
A Ford with the Ford dealership as the backdrop; Clever,no?
'Nuf said.
Old Glory and the Kansas State Flag fly in the background of this '40s Plymouth.
Dude in the bright green shirt (see reflection) is the car owner. You can't imagine the confusion when you tell a dude you want to take a picture of them with their car and then aim the camera in the opposite direction!
This is the coolest Edsel in the world. I sits 1/4″ off the ground when parked. It is called the Sledsel. Even at it's lowest, it is quite a beautiful old gal. All it needs is someone to turn a key and touch the right switch and it is uplifted and ready for whatever lies ahead on the open road.
You can see the entire gallery here. Hope you enjoyed the ride on this post!
You really have some interesting photos. I rally like the truck in the second pic.
AM Dad… that truck is amazing.. I didn't (because of the focus of my post) do it justice… That body was done One Hundred Percent ready for "shiny show paint"… instead, it was painstakingly made to look like a beat up old rusty truck… in the context of what I wrote, it is the perfect example of my post. A completely new creation, but only the outward appearance of an old thing that had a hard life… In terms of the show, I can only imagine the artistry involved in making that look like it is smeared in "Bondo" and rusted out… all paint, my friend, all cosmetic!

What is a business school?
A business school is an institution or an establishment that offers specialist teaching to students who want to learn specialist skills regarding the practices, methodologies and application of techniques used effectively in business.
These can be anything from what the latest cutting-edge software is to how to keep afloat with regards to a POS system, it really depends on what the student wants to learn and why.
For example, a student may attend a school in the hopes of becoming a professional marketer. This means they will study a course with modules that place a heavy focus around the application of marketing, a valuable tool in any business that aims to bring in customers – which is, of course, the core function of a business.
With this in mind, in theory any student that wants to go into a career in marketing and enter their profession with the knowledge of what goes into marketing can then take any course at any educational institution that offers modules based around how to market services or products, or anything else a business has to offer its customers.
But the student can then even take this even further still, going into a more specialist area such as e-commerce marketing.
This is where it would make more sense to attend a school that specializes in business, like Hult International Business School for example, in order to attain knowledge around specifically how to market in the online world with efficiency and effectively.
Why do we have business schools?
Business schools exist essentially to train students to become professionals in their chosen careers, and some of those professionals want to focus more on the business side of things instead of the more creative or ad-hoc point of view.
These students are more driven by results, money and management instead of ideas and routine-work, or they're at least trained to be so once in an educational establishment that revolves heavily around the world of business.
Business schools are also available to offer people the opportunity to become specialist professionals in their chosen industry, and this is a great way to further careers of those students who are already in the real working-world and decide they want to do more based around the selling and fine lines of the business they work for.
In what way do business schools differ from the more usual institutions?
Business schools differ from the usual institutions in that they place a heavy focus around the world of business specifically, and so there's more like minded people studying in one place under the same roof due to this.
Modules are based more around selling and customers than the regular modules at universities, which may offer more creative-based briefs and modules.
Not only this, but business schools offer more opportunities for their students to study and work at the same time, with sponsored tuition fees and degrees offered at a higher rate than usual institutions, due to the fact that for any business, the core function is its people, and good people make up a good business, leading to good business all round.
With this in mind, it's a win-win for both businesses and students who want to go into business to choose to study at a business school, especially if you're given the opportunity to 'earn while you learn'.
Is it better to study business at a business school?
An intuitive question rightly asked by many prospective students looking to study business is whether or not it is actually necessary to study at a business school and if this is even better than studying business at a usual institution.
There's no wrong or right fixed answer to this however, where you end up studying will depend entirely on the profession you're looking to go into/improve with.
Not only that, but it'll be worth taking into account the actual skills you want to learn and how you want to learn them.
Some institutions offer more up to date softwares and technologies to work with for example, along with more real-life workplace situational environments or opportunities to do a placement within them. But, if you don't get the opportunity to take part in a placement, you will still get the opportunity to apply the skills once you go to the workplace and practice using the software.
It's a good idea to just go over the modules of the course you're interested in and checking out reviews, forums, and hashtags on social media to see what existing students and the public are saying about how the institution teaches and coming to your own informed opinion about whether or not it's the right place for you to study at.

Aha, Trentino.....
No one else applied or what can be the reason?
Jastrzębski very wanted to play here even Miro has spoken with FIVB.
Why Trentino? Probably because They are former Club World Champion.
In 2021 They also will get Wild Card as former..
Wild Card for Rayyan
I don't think Matin can bring national players to this tournament two weeks before the World League. the new coach probably wants all of them. They will be probably weak here but still better than Kaleh 2013. Kaleh was disastrous last year !
Trentino got a wild card as a former WCCH last year and it's OK, one year is more than enough. They don't deserve it now. It would've been so much better with Jastrzebski or Halkbank there.
Trentino got wild card as future world club champion.

Hello all, my name is Raven Atkins and I am currently a senior majoring in Journalism. This seems like one of the most basic leads for an introduction of one's self, but the path which lead me to this major is anything but boring.
I came into college from a prestigious West Coast boarding school and felt more than prepared for what was ahead of me. I declared to be a biology major before I arrived at college, my Advanced Placement science test scores transferred in to count toward that biology major; I was well on track to becoming a pre-medical student and eventually, a doctor. This didn't happen.
Having always identified as a "smart" student, it came to me as a surprise when my pre-med plan began to fall apart. For the first time, I was failing a class. I wanted my plan of becoming a doctor to work out so badly that I was ignoring the tell- tale signs that I was in the wrong major.
If you wake up for class and dread going to it, this may be a sign that you do not love what you are studying. If you are studying for a class and are still not performing well, you may not be studying correctly. If you hate studying, you may be enrolling in the wrong classes for yourself.
One of the greatest lessons one can take from college is to be selfish. Focus on what you want to study and focus on how you are going to make that happen. Unlike high school, when one often takes general education classes with a few possible choices for AP's or languages, college has an amalgamation of classes from which you can pick and choose. Often, students who declare their major's before entering school do not get the opportunity to be introduced to other topics or majors they might enjoy studying more.
Some colleges require a few general education type courses before one can start taking major-specific classes, but this idea of choosing your own major is very important because of it's effect on your mentality about learning.
Having a genuine curiosity for what you study is how you are successful at it and will therefore make you more successful in life. This means that if you are undeclared or don't exactly know what you want to study in college, you get the opportunity to learn this skill of being selfish, for all of the right reasons.
Students who come in declared, like I did, never encounter that need to search for what they want to study, or, like me, realize they made the wrong major choice and therefore are behind once they switch majors.
It's okay to not know what one wants to study when first entering college, as long as they are aware of it. This causes one to search for that topic that they love to study and focus on their intellectual desires; it forces you to be selfish. College is one of the only times in a person's life that you can spend every day thinking about what you want to study, what classes you want to take, what field you want to go into and any other school related issue that involves you.
College is a time for justified selfishness. It is needed to figure out what makes someone truly happy. This selfishness will benefit anyone in their future career and their social life if they are a person that knows what they want and knows what to do to get it.
