This will be the last photo from this portrait session I did for a guy wanted to get into the modelling business as a male model. Last I heard from him, he had signed for an agency so I guess the pictures did what they were for. Showing his potential.
First we started with a one-light setup using only a Profoto D1 250 Air and a Magnum reflector, together with a reflector for a little fill.
The only difference from the last shot (read Profoto Magnum model portrait for more details) was that I added a second Profoto D1 behind a Chimera panel with diffusion fabric to act as fill camera right.
You can see a tiny bit of the corner of the panel, up in the upper right corner of this behind the scenes-photo. The effect of this second light is a second catchlight in his left eye and a little more detail on the shadow side of his face.
The one-light portrait I did earlier got a pretty hard contrast treatment, I felt that it was the best way to make it interesting in black and white. This on the other hand could be good even with a softer contrast to keep the details in the shadows visible.
These photos were adjusted for contrast and sharpness in Lightroom, as well as converted to black and white. No skin retouch or stuff like that. Shot with a Nikon D700 with a 85mm/1.4 lens.
Which one do you think works best, just one light or the one with fill?

Do you have what it takes to ace the chilly test that awaits you? Now through the morning of January 28th, Wizards level 10 and above can showcase their spell-slinging skills as they claw their way to the top of the Ice Deckathalon Tower. With no bonuses from your gear, level, or the ability to use regular trained spells, it'll just be up to you, your treasure cards, and a well-crafted strategy to fight your way through 30 floors of icy enemies. Those who manage to reach the top will be challenged by Professor Greyrose herself!
Each Wizard will gain three entries into the Ice Deckathalon per day. Upon entry, you'll be able to climb the tower as high as you can until you're defeated or run out of treasure cards. Once you run out of entries, you'll need to wait for the next day to claim more.
As you battle to the top of the tower, you'll have the opportunity to purchase crafting recipes that may help you on your journey to becoming a top Deckathlete. After all, only the most dedicated Wizards will rise to the top of the leaderboard! High ranking Deckathletes will earn prizes for their achievements, and the best of the best will even see their friends rewarded as well—pending their participation in that event, of course.
Defeating monsters in the Deckathalon and using treasure cards in battle will contribute points to your individual progress bar. Accumulating enough points can reap great rewards such as the all-powerful Hands of Fate weapon and cute Ice Class Pet!
Click the Gamma icon in the top right corner or visit the Wizard City Library to get started!
Hurry! This event ends the morning of January 28th! Please note that you only have ~72 hours after an event ends to redeem individual progress rewards.

'Living or dead, family is still alive' at Medford
For Randy Domstrand, who directed this year's high school musical at Medford, there is one line in the play, "The Addams Family," that always makes him chuckle: "Living or dead, family is still alive."
"It kind of captures all the closeness of family and the silliness of the show," said Domstrand.
The story of a weird, ghoulish family took center stage at Medford High School this past weekend as the school's fall musical. It is the most popular high school play in the country right now, according to Domstrand.
The actual plot tells the story of Wednesday Addams, the daughter of the family. She's grown up, fallen in love and arranged for her love interest's family to meet her rather morbid family. Wednesday is portrayed in the play by Lily Roehrick, a junior.
"The show revolves around Wednesday's turmoil," Domstrand said. "She is a little high maintenance."
The other main characters are Gomez Addams played by Rian Cloutier, a freshman, and Morticia Addams played by Irene Charro Vico, a sophomore foreign exchange student.
Domstrand called the trio of main cast members "pivotal and essential" to the success of the play. He described the play as "a dark comedy." He said some may have gotten spooked by the zombies, but in general it was "dark in a silly way."
Auditions for the play started back in mid-September. Domstrand said the biggest decision as a director is casting the show. "If you cast it well, shows can come together seamless," he noted.
One of the greatest challenges this year was the decision to involve students in the play that were also committed to other school activities. "We allowed athletes and cheerleaders to participate in the show," Domstrand said. He praised the decision for opening up a lot of opportunity for more students, but found it was challenging in trying to schedule around everyone.
Another challenge was the fact that Domstrand experienced serious health issues this fall and had to rely heavily on his co-director, Benjamin Beaupre, to pull things together. "Without his presence, it might have been insurmountable," Domstrand said.
For Domstrand, he has the most fun seeing the performers pull it all together. "I love seeing students experimenting with their character," he said, adding he prefers to let students come up with their own character rather than directing them to be a certain way.
There were 34 students in grades 7-12 involved in this year's play.

Dettol, the leading brand on cleanliness and hygiene, has launched a Cleanathon Challenge for institutes and organizations under its campaign, Hoga Saaf Pakistan, to inculcate hygienic behaviors and responsibility towards environment. Students of IOBM have now stepped up and joined the movement by taking the challenge to clean the Clifton Beach.
Talking about this cleanathon challenge, Kashan Hasan, CEO Reckitt Benckiser Pakistan Limited (RBPL), makers of Dettol, said, "It's refreshing to see the zeal and enthusiasm these students have to clean their environment, that too on a weekend. Dettol, a trusted household name when it comes to hygiene, has taken the responsibility to lead a hygiene revolution in the country through Hoga Saaf Pakistan movement. This cleanathon challenge is a reminder to Pakistan that if these students can do it, so can we. So lets collectively stand together to bring this change for a prosperous future of this nation. Kyunke Mil Ke Lagaenge Jaan Toh Hoga Saaf Pakistan."
The Government of Pakistan estimates that Pakistan's urban population of 207 million citizens generates 87,000 tons of solid waste per day, according to reports by the International Trade Administration. Karachi, Pakistan's metropolitan hub, alone contributes to 13,500 tons of municipal waste daily. With no proper waste management channel, most of this garbage is incinerated or left to rot in the middle of the city and eventually ends up at the beach. This is one of the significant reasons for diseases spreading at a strikingly fast rate in the country.
The students collected more than 50kgs of litter in this cleanliness drive at the beach. IoBM is the second university in Karachi to take up this challenge and challenges others to follow suit.
About Hoga Saaf Pakistan
Hoga Saaf Pakistan started in 2017 as Reckitt Benckiser's (makers of Dettol) social impact vision of a clean and hygienic Pakistan. The initiative got more significant in 2019 after its partnership with Prime Minister's Clean Green Pakistan movement and ARY Digital Network. Under the program, Dettol has conducted several iconic cleanup drives across the country, promoted hygiene through its targeted programs, which includes reaching out to 2 million school-going children annually and educating them on personal hygiene.

A relaxing beach holiday isn't for everyone and some prefer a more fast-paced getaway. Dive into adventure, with an adrenaline-fuelled summer holiday, sure to keep you and your family busy. There are so many amazing countries and cultures to explore, so step out of your comfort zone and embark on one of these adventure holidays this summer.
- Bungee jumping in New Zealand
If you're planning an adventure holiday, New Zealand simply has to be at the top of your travel destination list. Cliff diving and bungee jumping are popular activities in the region and can't be missed if you want to fully immerse yourself in New Zealand's culture. Kiwis live life on the edge… literally. If you find yourself in New Zealand, leap off something high and really allow your adrenaline levels to spike.
- Safari in South Africa
Perfect for all animal lovers, an African safari is a great way to get up close and personal with animals found on the African plains. Better than any school geography lesson, your kids will get to learn more about the exotic African animals and how they survive in their natural habitat. If you decided to embark on a South African safari this summer, make sure to take all of the necessary safety precautions and get any recommended vaccinations well in advance.
- Try water sports in Bali
It doesn't matter if you've been surfing for years or if you're a novice, it's always great fun to try out; where better to surf than on the stunning beaches of Bali? It's the ideal adventure holiday destination as there are an endless amount of water sports activities to take part in once you've mastered surfing. Jet skiing is an amazing experience for those with a need for speed and snorkelling is the ideal activity for those who want to explore Bali's coral reefs. If you're heading to Bali this summer, make sure to check out 1Cover's Bali survival guide, which contains all you need to know about keeping safe in the country.
- Hike, bike and kayak in Thailand
Thailand: a country bursting with culture and unique activities. Thailand is home to some of the most picturesque hiking trails in the world as well as winding rivers that are a delight to kayak along. However, did you know that travel insurance is mandatory if you want to visit the country? Insurance can protect you against any unforeseen circumstances such as theft, cancellations and illness, so should be considered a necessity no matter where you're travelling to.
- Summer Skiing
When you think of summer adventure holidays, skiing isn't the first thing that comes to mind. However, there are so many countries in the world where it's possible to ski during the summer months. Australia's prime skiing months are between July and August and skiing is also possible in many high altitude European countries, such as France. However, research from ABTA found that more than 2.5 million British adults who have been on winter sports holidays never check if they have the correct insurance. Don't make the same mistake and get the appropriate ski and winter sports cover before your adventure holiday.
How many of these adventure holidays are you going to add to your travel bucket list? Wherever you go, make sure you travel in safety and take care of any insurance or vaccination requirements before you set off. According to the ABTA, more than 10 million Brits travelled abroad without the correct insurance in 2017, so make sure you don't become part of this statistic.

(Business in Cameroon) - Instead OF the XAF260 billion prescribed by the 2019 finance law, Cameroon's public treasury will issue XAF350 billion in public securities. According to Sylvester Moh (photo), director of the directorate of treasury at the ministry of finance, this final volume was decided by the head of state in the revised budget of May 29, 2019. This revised act increases the country's 2019 budget by XAF361.5 billion.
The official also reveals that the country is preparing to raise at least XAF100 billion during Q3, 2019. For that purpose, it could once again turn to BEAC's financial market where it raised XAF174 billion with three fungible bond issuances issued within two months.
The public treasury can also raise the funds on the unified Central African stock exchange that will replace the Douala Stock Exchange (Dsx) in July 2019, according to official sources.
The country has been criticized by the IMF for its propensity to have recourse to non-concessional loans instead of the concessional provided by multilateral investors. Indeed, the volume of public securities prescribed in the revised finance act averages the XAF300 billion- XAF350 billion in that market for the past three years.
The Bretton Woods institution notably fears a new rapid growth of Cameroon's debt after the 2006 episode that led the country into the Heavily Indebted Poor Countries (HIPC) Initiative for the remission of its foreign debt.
In reply to the IMF's worries, Cameroon indicates that its debt (35% of GDP) is still sustainable since the volume of its culminated debts is largely below the 70% of GDP set in the convergence criterion within CEMAC.
At the same time, Cameroonian public institutions explain their preference for the security market by its flexibility (unlike the conditions set by international backers for their loans) in terms of disbursement and use of received funds.

Duality in LP problem
Duality in LP problem
All linear programming problems have another problem associated with them, which is known as its dual. In other words, every minimization problem is associated with a maximization problem and vice-versa. The original
linear programming
problem is known as primal problem, and the derived problem is known as its dual problem. The optimal solutions for the primal and dual problems are equivalent.
Conversion of primal to dual is done because of many reasons. The dual form of the problem, in many cases, is simple and can be solved with ease. Moreover, the variables of the dual problem contain information useful to management for analysis.
Procedure is as follows:
Step 1: Convert the objective function if maximization in the primal into minimization in the dual and vice versa. Write the equation considering the transpose of RHS of the constraints.
Step 2: The number of variables in the primal will be the number of constraints in the dual and vice versa.
Step 3: The co-efficient in the objective function of the primal will be the RHS constraints in the dual and vice versa.
Step 4: In forming the constraints for the dual, consider the transpose of the body matrix of the primal problems.
Sensitivity Analysis
Sensitivity analysis involves 'what if?' questions. In the real world, the situation is constantly changing like change in raw material prices, decrease in machinery availability, increase in profit on one product, and so on. It is important to decision makers for find out how these changes affect the optimal solution. Sensitivity analysis can be used to provide information and to determine solution with these changes.
Sensitivity analysis deals with making individual changes in the co-efficient of the objective function and the right hand sides of the constraints. It is the study of how changes in the co-efficient of a linear programming problem affect the optimal solution.
We can answer questions such as:
1. How will a change in an objective function co-efficient affect the optimal solution?
2. How will a change in a right-hand side value for a constraint affect the optimal solution?

Variety in worship
I've mentioned that I've gone to St. David's here in Denton on occasion. But this past Sunday was my first time to make their 10:30am service. And I was surprised!
It was quite the service. There were candles in procession. There were a lot of sung prayers, which I like. The rector sang much of the Eucharist prayer. They even rang a bell at the consecration. No, these are not anglo-catholics, at least I don't think so! And there was lots of choir and organ led music. I liked the traditional set up where the choir is singing to you from both sides as you walk up to the altar.
Now, this is the same church that had almost no music during their Ash Wednesday service. In fact, it seems every time I go there, their service is a little different. This was a fifth Sunday, so they incorporated Morning Prayer into the service. For the Fourth of July, they used the 1662 BCP! The rector clearly loves church history and liturgy, and that's reflected in the different forms of worship at St. David's.
But even beyond St. David's, I've been impressed with the variety of worship forms and styles in Anglican churches. To be honest, a concern of mine has been that with liturgical worship, with its set prayers and such, I would eventually grow, well, bored of it. But my (albeit limited) experience has been that there is more variety and creativity of worship in orthodox liturgical churches than in orthodox non-liturgical churches.
You would think the opposite would be the case, but not so. Granted, liturgical worship is newer and more inherently exciting to me, so my perception might be colored by that.
But do you all have any ideas as to why liturgical worship often has more variety and creativity than non-liturgical worship? I'm scratching my head about this myself.

Awesome Property Situated In Palmwoods With Great Views!
Palmwoods Queensland
Set in the heart of an arts and craft hub which typifies Queensland's Sunshine Coast hinterland, the rural town of Palmwoods is at the crossroads of the region's tourist network. Set in a mosaic of avocado, custard apples and pawpaw orchards, orange groves, and banana plantations, Palmwoods is only a few kilometres south of Nambour.
It's within comfortable driving distance of Buderim and the charming Blackall Range villages of Maleny, Montville and Mapleton. Complete with village green, art gallery, stained-glass studio and museum, Montville is just 10 kilometres from Palmwoods and is the south-eastern gateway to the Kondalilla National Park.
The Sunshine Coast Hinterland has often been overlooked by investors due to appearing too far from the beach on maps. In reality its only 15 minutes to the beach, airport and brand new CBD (currently under construction) at Maroochydore. So everything is a short drive away.
The beauty of the Hinterland is its laid back village lifestyle, large blocks of land, great schools and beautiful surrounds. But the big kicker for investors is that it is on the main train line to Brisbane. With the line soon to be duplicated, train trips to Brisbane will be cut from over an hour to under 45 minutes. So the ability to commute to Brisbane easily for work and be near some of Australia's most beautiful beaches in 15 minutes will ensure high demand in this region of very tight land supply.
Brand New 4 Bed home walking distance to the centre of Palmwoods, has everything you need for your family. The minute you walk into this property you feel the calmness of the natural surroundings and see the green rolling hills of Montville from your beautiful outdoor deck. You will be ready for entertaining and inviting your friends over for cold beers and a BBQ. The 4-bedroom house is large and the 4th bedroom is set up as a theatre room, it has large open plan living, that opens up on to a large deck, with beautiful hinterland views. If you are a first homeowner, you could receive the $20,000 first home owners grant.
It has stainless steel appliances, stone benchtops in the kitchen and bathrooms, feature lights over the kitchen. It is fully carpeted to all the bedrooms; the master has a huge walk-in robe and large en-suite. It has a double lock-up garage, landscaped gardens and is fully fenced.
It has a yard for kids and a dog to run around in. This is a house size duplex there are no adjoining walls is sitting on about 450sqm of land. Total land for the site is 922sqm. The dwelling size is 197sqm. The owner of the property loves it and is keeping one for himself.
An inspection on this property would be a must if you were looking to purchase or invest in Palmwoods. If you are looking at an investment this would rent for $500pw. Then this is the property for you.
The Body Corporate only has to pay the insurance, which is about $1,500pa so 50% of that. Rates are estimated at about $2,200pa and water about $350quater.
Any other questions please call Chris Pullen on 0434 449 455.

If you've never led a Seder, or if you are wondering how the experience can be the most interesting, instructive and inspiring night of the Jewish year, this evening is for you. CRS congregant Mark Gerson, author of the forthcoming book The Telling: How Judaism's Essential Book Can Change Your Life, will teach us how to create a truly special evening for everyone at our seder tables.
What does religion, and Judaism in particular, have to offer modern, rational adults? Harry Frischer and Carl Mankowitz lead a discussion about Judaism from three perspectives: cultural Judaism, the individual seeker, and the undeniable yet intangible force we feel active in our lives.

Lockhart (Dane DeHaan) is sent to a wellness center in the Alps to retrieve the CEO of a Wall Street firm, but shortly after arriving he's involved in an accident… The writer and the director were inspired by a classic Thomas Mann novel and employed a lovecraftian touch in their tale of mysterious events in the Alps, fueled by the special qualities of its air and water. Nothing new here though; the film relies heavily on clichés and isn't scary enough. Intense climax, but on the whole the story is unreasonably slow and protracted.
2017-U.S.-Germany-Luxembourg. 146 min. Color. Directed by Gore Verbinski. Screenplay: Justin Haythe. Music: Benjamin Wallfisch. Cast: Dane DeHaan (Lockhart), Jason Isaacs (Heinrich Volmer), Mia Goth (Hannah), Harry Groener, Celia Imrie, Adrian Schiller… Tomas Norström, Magnus Krepper.

Incorporated in 2012 in California as Redshift Rendering Technologies Inc, Redshift's goal was to develop the first production-quality, biased GPU renderer. Its founders Panos Zompolas, Nicolas Burtnyk and Rob Slater had a rich background in video gaming, 3D, GPU Software and computer graphics. Before Redshift, the biased global illumination techniques it employs were only available with CPU render engines.
In April 2019 German 3D modelling and animation software company Maxon acquired Redshift Rendering Technologies Inc. for an undisclosed sum.
Today, the Redshift community contains hundreds of global studios and thousands of creative professionals who use the render engine. Redshift doesn't charge per application or plugin, so artists can easily hop between programmes such as Cinema 4D (C4D), Maya, Houdini, and 3ds Max. Redshift also comes with render farm support. YellowDog's multi-cloud render platform, which is an intelligent renderfarm solution, is a Redshift technology partner. While Redshift gives studios instant render farm capabilities, it is worth having YellowDog on standby for those tight deadlines or large projects when on-demand rendering can make the difference.Cloud Render Case Study
In 2018, YellowDog extended its high-powered GPU cloud render solution to support Redshift for Cinema 4D. Cinema 4D, a motion graphic, animation and modelling rendering application, was created by Maxon. Cinema 4D is ideal for 3D artists who need fast, but reliable, production results within seconds rather than minutes. Redshift is one of the most popular rendering engines for Cinema 4D, along with Arnold, Octane and Cycles by the Blender project. For super-fast rendering you can use the bias function to turn off certain elements, such as global illumination (GI). Cinema 4D also offers noise free rendering.
In 2016, YellowDog was the first cloud render platform to officially support Redshift for Maya. You can read this blog to learn some of the basics on lighting a scene with Redshift for Maya.
Maya is a popular 3D modelling program, well-known for its ease of use when creating realistic animations and effects. It allows users to apply modelling layers to give a free-form approach to 3D animation. As an Autodesk product, it seamlessly integrates with hundreds of handy plugins including Phoenix FD for fluid dynamics and Yeti and XGen for fur, hair, and cloth detail.
In 2019, YellowDog included Redshift for 3ds Max in its list of supported software. 3ds Max is a software tool used to create 3D animations, models and digital images. An Autodesk product, 3ds Max is often used for character modelling and animation whilst being widely used in architectural visualisation and engineering visualisation. With polygon modelling, 3D artists have a high level of control, giving them a greater range of precision than several other available modelling softwares.
In 2017, Redshift was launched for SideFX Houdini. The Houdini plugin puts GPU-accelerated rendering performance into a powerful all-in-one 3D application combining modelling, animation, rigging and compositing. It's used by CG artists around the globe to produce films, television shows, adverts, games and more.
This video tutorial demonstrates how to light an interior scene with Redshift for Cinema 4D.
It covers all of the basics from setting up global illumination, to controlling the light in the scene using portal lights.See more Redshift Videos
Step 1) Optimise render settings and ensure that on-premise or local hardware is also optimised to perform well when rendering.
Step 2) If using additional render nodes locally, ensure that sufficient render node licenses are available from Maxon.
Step 3) Use render farms or cloud rendering to scale available render infrastructure for rendering. YellowDog is a multi-cloud render platform that studios use to speed up their animation and visual effects.Learn more about YellowDog
Giant animation used Redshift Cloud Rendering on YellowDog's multi-cloud GPU platform to keep up with the demanding production schedule of their latest YouTube Originals release, Sherwood.
Giant is one of Europe's leading animation production and development studios based in the thriving city of Dublin, Ireland. Established in 2011, the studio has earned a reputation for high quality work across its award winning short films, commercials, and exciting TV shows for kids. They are a global leader of Redshift animation rendering for children's animation.

There are a number reasons why a studio might use Redshift. It could be due to existing expertise with the studio's 3D artists, because the features of Redshift lend themselves to a particular production, or because of the relationship between look, development and final delivery capability.
nGenious is a studio based in Montreal, who used Maya, Redshift, and YellowDog's GPU Cloud Rendering to deliver their inaugural feature animation: 'Troll: The Tale of a Tail.' They state their reason for choosing Redshift in this case study which is also below.
Eric Gervais-Despres nGenious Co-Founder
"In mid-2016, we benchmarked other GPU engines like Octane. At that time, Redshift was the one that was the closest to what we wanted in terms of speed and look. The benchmarking process was thorough and the choice of Redshift was based on data that we collected from our studies.
We weren't rendering final shots in 2016 but every time we built an asset it was creating a Redshift proxy. From the first step, from the first 3D model, Redshift was at the heart of our pipeline. The decision we made early on therefore couldn't change."

Being young and feeling blue in Taiwan: An empirical study of the relationship between adolescent depressive mood and online and offline activities
Hwang, Jennie M.
MetadataShow full item record
This study explored the relationship between Taiwanese teenagers' depressive mood and their online as well as offline communication based on a large-scale survey (N = 6,341). The preliminary investigation showed that those who reported high depressive mood used the Internet to make friends, to express thoughts and feelings, and had nobody to talk to. Hierarchical linear regression analyses further indicated that Taiwanese adolescents who were higher in depressive mood engaged in more online activities in the domain areas of information-seeking, entertainment, and communication with friends. The findings also indicated a positive relationship between depressive mood and risky behaviors (e.g., drinking, smoking, harmful driving and night clubbing). Moreover, age and gender differences were found. Overall, the results of this study shed new light on earlier research that focused exclusively on U.S. Internet users (Kraut et al., 1998; 2002) and suggest that the role of the Internet in the lives of young people with depressive mood may vary by culture.

Luis Fonsi to Make F1 Esports Debut with BWT Racing Point F1 Team
Puerto Rican singer, songwriter and producer to compete in the Virtual Monaco Grand Prix
Driver Unlocked
Ahead of Round 6 of the F1 Virtual Grand Prix series, BWT Racing Point F1 Team is delighted to welcome global superstar Luis Fonsi to the virtual grid.
The Puerto Rican singer, songwriter and producer – best known for his record-breaking multi-platinum selling hits 'Despacito' and 'Échame La Culpa', among others – will make his F1 Esports debut at the virtual wheel of the RP19.
Fonsi will be joined by rising FIA Formula 3 star David Schumacher – the 19-year-old German set to make his third consecutive appearance with the team, having impressed in the previous two races.
Fittingly for such a star-studded line-up, this weekend's virtual action will take place at the jewel in the motorsport crown – the iconic Circuit de Monaco.
A Record-Breaking Signing
Having recorded his first studio album in 1998, Luis Fonsi has become a household name in the Latin music scene around the world during a career spanning more than two decades and counting.
With nine studio albums now in his repertoire [the most recent, the certified double diamond album 'Vida', released in 2019], he shows no signs of slowing down in the studio – something he'll be aiming to replicate on the virtual racetrack this weekend.
Amongst that extensive back catalogue of hits are the record-breaking 'Despacito' with Daddy Yankee and Justin Bieber and 'Échame La Culpa' with Demi Lovato, both becoming two of the Top 10 most viewed videos of the decade.
In 2018, 'Despacito' received seven Guinness World Record titles, including most viewed music video online, most liked video online, most viewed music video on YouTube (duet), most streamed track worldwide, first YouTube video to receive 5 billion views and most viewed video online.
At time of writing, 'Despacito' remains the most-watched YouTube video of all time, with over 6.7 billion views, in addition to winning four Latin Grammy Awards, seven Billboard Latin Music Awards, five Billboard Music Awards and received four Grammy Awards nominations.
Catch up with the latest from Luis as he prepares for his F1 Esports debut this weekend across his social media channels:

We are so pleased with David's work! He power-washed, sanded and painted our back deck in 2 days, something that would have taken me months to do. I found David on Thumbtack and he got right back to me. He came and gave us an estimate which was quite reasonable. We went with the color he suggested and are very glad that we did. So so happy that we will be able to enjoy our porch this summer. Thanks David! We plan on hiring you again for more painting!Jun 19, 2020Verified

David was very professional and you see that he takes pride in his work. He took down and repainted my shutters to match the color of my new painted door. In planning the job he outlined the parts that was required to be replaced and where they can be purchased. He discuss the type and quality of the paint required for the job. Not a lot of painters will spend time discussing this with you. His attention to detail is meticulous, I wish I had hired him to paint the entire home.Jul 1, 2020Verified

- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?With the use of lasers we measure the square footage of the project. And linear footage of window trim, baseboards or crown molding. There are base price for small jobs. I offer competitive pricing among other contractors with no hidden fees, special discounts to military and veterans. I also consider people whom have been affected by natural disasters. Special discounts are offered around the holidays.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?I would meet with a customer in person and go over the job. Once measurements and square footage of the job are verified (to assure an accurate estimate) the customer will then get an email with the estimate price. This may take 24 to 48 hours to complete. After a day or two, a follow up email will be sent to ask to any questions and concerns, as well as offer the ability to schedule the job. A final meeting regarding color choices and shines will be done. A normal process may take 5 to 7 days.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?I have been painting for over 15 years. I went to college to become an R/N, but did not graduate. I then took online classes to become better at public relations and business management.

Cardi B Opened Up About Her Own #MeToo Experience
In the new WE tv tell-all series, Untold Stories Of Hip-Hop, Cardi B tells us about some personal #MeToo experience she had during her come-up. Although, to be honest, it should really be called Previously Told Stories of Hip-Hop because Cardi has actually talked about this before.
People says that Cardi B, the woman who will literally attack a bitch with a shoe on camera, has been sexually harassed, intimidated and propositioned. On Cardi's episode of Untold Stories of Hip-Hop, she talks about how she's faced some bullshit on the come-up:
"I will never forget how I went to shoot for this magazine and the photographer, he was trying to get close to me like: "Yeah, you want to get in this magazine?" Then he pulled his dick out. I was so fucking mad, and I was just like: "This is crazy." …I was like: "[You're] fucking bugging. You know what? I'm out." …You know what's so crazy? I told the magazine owner and he just looked at me like: "So? And?" When I see the #MeToo movement–there's girls from the hood I know that went through the same type of treatment, like they make you feel like you got to do a certain type of thing for the most bullshit shit. It happens, really, every day."
Cardi B has us quaking with how woke she has become since her drugging men days. How is she not just running Bernie Sanders' campaign already? I think we know who wins this Nicki Minaj beef: when one is marrying a convicted attempted rapist and the other is out here bringing wealth equality and ending sexism!
Cardi says that if she's ever sexually assaulted again, she'll take to Instagram and let everyone know who the creep is:
"Oh, hell no. I'll put you on blast on my Instagram …I'll fucking violate."
Now this isn't exactly the hottest tea. In fact it's a little cold because she talked about this before to Cosmopolitan last year:
"When I was trying to be a [music video] vixen, people were like, "You want to be on the cover of this magazine?" Then they pull their dicks out. I bet if one of these women stands up and talks about it, people are going to say, "So what? You're a ho. It don't matter.""
Hos Matter! Someone get me that t-shirt.
Honestly, I'm just mad that the feud with those 10-year-old white kids fizzled so hard. I wanted to hear the story about how Cardi B rolled up to their house and whooped those quadruplets' parents' asses with their own children's light-up sneakers. That's the only Untold Story that I need!
Here's a preview of Cardi's episode:

Science reporter, BBC News
16 December 2015
· Colourful footage, shot with a thermal camera, has revealed how hummingbirds avoid overheating as they beat their wings up to 70 times per second.
· The birds have "windows" for heat loss, around their eyes, shoulder joints, feet and legs.
· This study, led by George Fox University in Oregon, US, is part of a Nasa-funded project to uncover the effects of climate change on the birds.
· The results are published in the journal Royal Society Open Science.
· Dissipating heat is complex in birds because feathers are such effective insulators.
· Lead researcher Dr Donald Powers said many nest birds formed bare "brood patches" when sitting on eggs, "so that the eggs are not insulated from their warm skin by the feathers".
· "We wanted to understand how hummingbirds, and birds in general, get rid of the extra heat."
· As bright white patches on the footage reveal, hummingbirds - and, researchers say, probably birds in general - have special areas around their eyes, shoulders, and legs that have low feather density.
· These serve as windows to rapidly dissipate heat during flight.

With the stealth of a ninja, Kevin Whitley eased the kayak between two pilings in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel. He dropped the bait straight down. Instantly the fiddler crab was thumped by a big sheepshead, and the tug-of-war was on.
Whitley used his paddle to push away from the structure as a large, black-striped fish rose to the surface. As several anglers on nearby boats watched in envy, he smiled. His smaller, more agile kayak let him quietly reach an area that the bigger, loud, gas-guzzling boats couldn't, and they knew it.
There was a time when Whitley, known on the water as "Kayak Kevin," would have drawn strange looks for his narrow, 15-foot piece of floating plastic. But the area's kayak fishing scene has exploded. In fact, the Tidewater Kayak Anglers Association – a group formed in the early 2000s – has swelled to hundreds of members and holds kayak-dedicated fishing tournaments to raise money for several charities.
"We have the water for it," said Cory Routh, who runs a kayak fishing guide service and was one of TKAA's early members. "So … I'm not surprised by the rise in interest at all."
"I have a bit of a gypsy mentality and thought about taking up hiking," Whitley said. "But my ankles and legs aren't hiking quality. I could paddle, though."
Burnley was targeting the diversity of fish in the lower Chesapeake Bay and had built a small following of anglers who enjoyed the quiet of paddling, the sounds of waves lapping against plastic, the splashing of a fish right at your side.
Whitley was just a kayaker when he was turned onto the newborn fishing scene by Ric Burnley, a writer for Salt Water Sportsman and author of The Complete Kayak Fisherman. Whitley had turned to paddling in a bit of a midlife crisis. He had spent his youth on more conventional sports. His dad is Ken Whitley, the Norview High School Hall-of-Famer and wrestling coach.
Whitley went after the sport with a passion some found surprising, given his previous lack of interest in fishing.
"Grew up here but didn't do much more than fish for spot and croaker from the pier once in a while with my family," he said. "But there was something about being so close to the water, a oneness with the fish that you can't get from a pier or a bigger boat."
The kayak fishing scene seems to have grown locally in conjunction with the increasing popularity of small recording devices like GoPro cameras. Anglers often mount them on their bow, on a pole from the stern or on their hat. Some of the more ardent videographers mount multiple cameras, including underwater options.
"The production quality of some of the stuff is mind-blowing," Routh said. "Go to YouTube these days – there's no shortage of quality video being produced by kayak anglers."
But video is only one small reason for the growing popularity.
Kayaks don't require boat ramps, and they can take you into hard-to-reach spots, including skinny water (3 feet deep or less) where you can find feeding speckled trout and puppy drum, among other species. You can also haul kayaks out to sea to battle tunas and billfish or put them in freshwater rivers and go after largemouth bass, crappie, bluegill.
And while a gas boat and gear can run you several thousands of dollars,
beginners can usually get decent starter kayaks for about $1,000. Annual upkeep is far less expensive, as well.
"And there is lots of used stuff out there, as more anglers upgrade their yaks," Routh said, adding that the TKAA website forum is a good place to look for equipment and help.
But for many anglers, like Whitley, the most appealing aspect of kayak fishing is its connection to nature. Being on a small craft, close to the water, you can hear everything and see everything. The fishing is almost secondary.
At the bay bridge-tunnel, Whitley made another drop and looked around at the commotion of boats around him. As they disappeared from sight, he got another hit, and smiled: "No oil, no gas, no noise."

Public Accounts Committee chairman John McGuinness has said a review is needed into how warnings about the risk of a property crash were ignored.
Mr McGuinness was referring to a series of emails sent by a Department of Finance official between 2005 and 2007, warning about the risk of a property crash.
"You cannot have a public service that conceals relevant figures from its Government."
He said it is obvious that a review is needed into what happened.
The PAC chairman said the Dáil had clearly been misled in relation to the answers given to a number of questions.
"The Public Accounts Committee is the only Government body with a number of powers to investigate this type of activity."
A report from the PAC is due to be given to Government on this issue shortly.
Mr McGuinness said the Government would then need to decide what type of inquiry should be set up into the banking collapse and who should be brought before it.
