#3DChanter - a Pocket Practice Chanter

The #3DChanter is a handy, lightweight practice chanter.

It can be easily dismantled to fit in your pocket, allowing you to take it with you wherever you go.

The sound of the #3DChanter is mellower and quieter than a standard or long practice chanter, ideal for solo practice, and for situations where noise may be a consideration.

The #3DChanter is supplied digitally, in the form of a set of STL files suitable for use with 3D printers and similar digital manufacturing devices. To make full use of the supplied files, you'll need to have access to a device of this type.

Lindstruments STL file 'kits' are optimised for use with FFF (Fused Filament Fabrication) printers of the type now widely available for home use. All our kits part sizes are restricted to 100mm, to ensure that they can be printed even on some of the more modestly sized printers such as the Printrbot.

The set comes with full instructions, all you'll need is a plastic practice chanter reed, and some plumbers (PTFE) tape or hemp thread to seal the joints with.

Files can be downloaded immediately following payment.

Ceramic membrane filters are a cost-effective and durable technology to remove unwanted particles and contaminants from liquids to deliver cleaner water.

Learn more
Ultrafiltration Membrane

What are ceramic membrane filters?

Ceramic membrane filters are porous semi-permeable membranes made of inorganic materials. The technology is used for water and wastewater treatment by various industries.

Ceramic membrane filtration technology represents an innovative liquid filtration technology capable of removing suspended solids, oil droplets, oil emulsions, particles, heavy metals, bacteria, and viruses. The technology is used in many large-scale industrial applications to treat various types of water and wastewater. Within water treatment, membranes can remove waterborne diseases and contaminants to control and prevent diseases. Within wastewater treatment, membranes are used to comply with environmental regulations and enable wastewater reclamation and reuse for improved OPEX.

Ceramic membrane filters are made of inorganic materials such as silicon carbide, zirconia, alumina, or titania. The colloidal suspension is placed on a porous support structure, taking various dimensions such as tubular, flat sheet, and disc. These geometries enable different liquid filtration principles so various liquids can be treated most effectively.

Membrane Filtration Process

How do ceramic membranes work?

Ceramic membrane filtration technology is a simple method to deliver clean and safe drinking water and treat different types of industrial water and wastewater streams.

Membranes are the heart of a water filtration system. It is a pressure-driven filtration technology that can remove unwanted particles and contaminants from various liquids. Basically, a feed stream enters the membranes, and a feed pump generates pressure. The pressure initiates the liquid purification process by forcing fluid through the membrane. This will separate the feed stream into two streams, which a called the permeate and the retentate. The permeate consists of the filtered liquid, which can pass through the porous membranes. The retentate consists of retained particles and contaminants, which are retained by the membrane.

It is a membrane’s pore size that determines which particles and contaminants a membrane can retain. The measurement of microns defines this. One micron is equal to one-millionth of a meter. A ceramic membrane can retain even the smallest particles, bacteria, and viruses.

Eventually, the surface of a membrane will get fouled with biomass from the feedwater. To remove this and restore membrane efficiency, backwash and Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) are performed.

Ceramic Membrane Filtration System

What can ceramic membranes be used for?

Membranes can treat various types of water and wastewater. Many industries use them to treat water and wastewater and comply with stringent environmental regulations.

Ceramic membrane filtration systems are both used to treat water and wastewater. They work for pretreatment and posttreatment, depending on the application and the desired permeate quality.

Within water treatment, membranes can, among others, be used for:

  • Drinking water treatment to deliver clean and safe drinking water
  • Pool and spa environments to remove waterborne contaminants
  • Food and beverage processing to purify and concentrate liquids

Within wastewater treatment, membranes can be used for arduous industries due to their thermal, chemical, and mechanical strength. They can, among others, be used within the following industries:

It is a durable method, ensuring compliance with even the strictest environmental regulations and discharge limits.

The advantages of ceramic membrane filters

There are many advantages linked to ceramic membrane filtration systems. They are not just good for the environment. They are simply good business, delivering numerous benefits to your operation.

Based on more than 20 years of experience within water filtration, we developed a ceramic membrane with the following unique properties:

  • High flux
  • Chemically inert pH 0-14
  • Thermally resistant up to 800 ˚C
  • Hydrophilic material
  • Low power usage
  • Long membrane lifetime
  • Low OPEX

Contrary to many other types of membranes, this membrane can be used for aggressive fluids with acids or strong solvents thanks to its strong thermal, chemical, and mechanical properties.  This type of membrane can also withstand extremely warm liquids of up to 800 ˚C.  Moreover, it can withstand frequent chemical cleaning to obtain superior sanitation standards, which is critical in many industries to avoid contaminants, leading to operational downtime.

On Russian Names

Alexsander Topolski was 16 years old and living in his native Poland when the war broke out in 1939. He quickly ended up in the Soviet penal system, where he spent three years. After the war he moved to Britain and later Canada, where he lived near Ottawa, working as an architect for Public Works Canada. In 2000 he published a memoir of his war years, called “Without Vodka” (from the Russian saying “Without vodka you can’t figure it out”).

As a Pole imprisoned in various Soviet work camps and other prisons, he faced a number of challenges and prejudices. Russians generally did not like Poles, and the language and cultural barriers made a bad thing worse. Among the many things he had to learn in order to survive were the intricacies of Russian names.

We were only beginning to learn the complexities and varieties of the diminutives of Russian names. Shura was a diminutive of Aleksandr (…), but to our amazement so were Sasha, Sashka, Sashenka, Shurka and Sania. All these nicknames could also apply to Aleksandra, the feminine form of Aleksandr. The polite form of address would be to use the first name Aleksandr and add to it the patronymic derived from his father’s first name. Shura’s father’s first name also happened to be Aleksandr, and his surname Aleksandrov (quite a common one). To add to our confusion, surnames came first. Thus, formally, Shura should have been addressed as Aleksandrov Aleksandr Aleksandrovich. It took a while to get used to it. It’s no wonder that for a long time, for the sake of simplicity and clarity, we Westerners referred to him simply as “that Russian prick.”

Somewhat Luxury

Paul Bowles, while travelling in 1953, had trouble securing a decent hotel in Istanbul. He settled on a “de luxe” establishment, and reports the following benefits of his choice.

The hotel is considered by my guidebook to be a “de luxe” establishment—the highest category. Directly after the “de luxe” listings come the “first class” places, which it describes in its own mysterious rhetoric: “These hotels have somewhat luxury, but are still comfortable with every convenience.” Having seen the lobbies of several of the hostelries thus pigeonholed, complete with disemboweled divans and abandoned perambulators, I am very thankful to be here in my de-luxe suite, where the telephone is white so that I can see the cockroaches on the instrument before I lift it to my lips. At least the insects are discreet and die obligingly under a mild blast of DDT. It is fortunate I came here: my two insecticide bombs would never have lasted out a sojourn in a first-class hotel.

He’ll show them a thing or two…

Frau Nowak has a bad lung and a chaotic impoverished life. She and her family live in an attic flat in Berlin, in the early 1930s, where she spends her days meticulously cleaning after her lout of a husband, her grown children Otto and Grete, and the occasional boarder. She complains to anyone who will listen as well as those who won’t. Like many discontent Germans in the last days of the Weimar Republic, she’s inclined to shoot at the easy targets. Her convictions seem to lack depth but as history shows, it doesn’t take a lot of effort to keep rolling when the inertia is growing all around you. Christopher Isherwood, a temporary boarder in the Nowak household, is witness to this and reports on it in his semi-fictional, sort-of autobiography, The Berlin Stories.

Another regular visitor was the Jewish tailor and outfitter, who sold clothes of all kinds on the instalment plan. He was small and gentle and very persuasive. All day long he made his rounds of the tenements in the district, collecting fifty pfennings here, a mark there, scratching up his precarious livelihood, like a hen, from this apparently barren soil. He never pressed hard for money, preferring to urge his debtors to take more of his goods and embark upon a fresh series of payments. Two years ago Frau Nowak had bought a suit and an overcoat for Otto for three hundred marks. The suit and the overcoat had been worn out long ago, but the money was not nearly repaid. Shortly after my arrival Frau Nowak invested in clothes for Grete to the value of seventy five marks. The tailer made no objection at all.

The whole neighbourhood owed him money. Yet he was not unpopular: he enjoyed the status of a public character, whom people curse without real malice. “Perhaps Lothar’s right,” Frau Nowak would sometimes say: “When Hitler comes, he’ll show these Jews a thing or two. They won’t be so cheeky then.” But when I suggested that Hitler, if he got his own way, would remove the tailor altogether, then Frau Nowak would immediately change her tone: “Oh, I shouldn’t like that to happen. After all, he makes very good clothes. Besides, a Jew will always let you have time if you’re in difficulties. You wouldn’t catch a Christian giving credit like he does… You ask the people round here Herr Christoph: they’d never turn out the Jews.”

From The Berlin Stories, by Christopher Isherwood (published 1939).

On the Dewey Decimal System

Jeanette Winterson, in her memoir Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal? (which is, in some ways, a retelling of her 1990 novel Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit) remembers a librarian she was fond of while coming of age in the south of the north of England in the 1970s:

The librarian was explaining the benefits of the Dewey decimal system to her junior – benefits that extended to every area of life. It was orderly, like the universe. It had logic. It was dependable. Using it allowed a kind of moral uplift, as one’s own chaos was also brought under control.

“Whenever I am troubled,” said the librarian, “I think about the Dewey decimal system.”

“Then what happens?” asked the junior, rather overawed.

“Then I understand that trouble is just something that has been filed in the wrong place.”

And later:

“Who was Gertrude Stein?”

“A modernist. She wrote without regard to meaning.”

“Is that why she is under Humour, like Spike Milligan?”

“Within the Dewey decimal system there is a certain amount of discretion.”

No Trust

Norman Levine, describing Sundays at a Northern Ontario mining camp in the 1950s:

Sunday was just another day. Those who didn’t work on the day shift had chicken for lunch. There was little talk. No hypocrisy. And there was no trust. Everyone locked his door.

On the Ruination of Friendships

Writing about Hemingway and Fitzgerald, and how it’s the little things that ruin a friendship.

Whenever I would think of these two men who had been my friends, I would find myself growing fascinated at the way little details, little vanities, little slights, shape all our relationships. It is these little things, not clashes over great principles, that turn people against each other.

Callaghan on Gertrude Stein

Morley Callaghan, on Gertrude Stein:

I no longer had any curiosity about the grand lady. If Scott (Fitzgerald) was interested in Miss Stein, he could have her. For my part, she had written one good book, Three Lives. Having waded through The Making of Americans, and those stories of hers like “As a Wife as a Cow: A Love Story,” I had done a little brooding over her. Abstract prose was nonsense. The shrewd lady had found a trick, just as the naughty Dadaists had once found a trick. The plain truth was, as I saw it, Gertrude Stein had nothing whatever to say.

Little Ninja Birthday Parties – Live Online

Each birthday our Little Ninjas have is one of a kind. Literally. Once that day is over, it will never be their (insert age here) birthday again. We understandably want to commemorate the day with an event. Now there is a way all family and friends can attend the event, even if they are physically far away, from nearly anywhere they are in the world.

Ninja birthday parties done live online are an easy, inexpensive, and innovative way to celebrate a child’s event. They are streamed live and can include family and friends that normally couldn’t attend in person, anywhere in the world. Online learning, training, and celebrating are the future.

If you haven’t heard of this kind of birthday party then you may be surprised how this could supplement or completely provide for any kid’s special day. I have done many in person Karate birthday parties in the past and have now done many Little Ninja Birthday Parties live online. Both are a ton of fun and the kids talk about them for weeks afterward.

Birthday Parties Currently Unavailable.

Virtual Parties Vs In Person Birthday Gatherings

Parties are different for most every person that plans one and for all venues. Many people host them in their homes to great expense, effort, and clean up. Some rent out halls or rooms to accommodate more guests in person.

The traditional way has always been to send out invitations and have everyone gather the troops and meet at an appointed time and place. There is lots of coordination and travel involved. There is great fun to be had, but also lots of preparation that goes along with it.

There is another way that with modern technology is possible for nearly everyone. The use of tablets, cellphones, and laptops are a part of everyday life for most people. Now, using these everyday items you can gather virtually with family and friends in online meeting rooms to celebrate nearly anything.

These virtual celebrations can accomodate crowds as large as 100 people or more from around the world. This innovative approach to events is so inclusive and easy with the program I have put in place, that all you have to do register for the time you want, send out the link, and wait for the party day to arrive.

I even give you all the information to send to other families that will be attending so that know what to expect. It is the ultimate addition or even complete solution to your Little Ninjas once in a lifetime day.

What do Little Ninjas think about my online Karate birthday parties?

The birthday party was a lot of fun, Saabir really got into it and thinks it may have been his best birthday ever.

What Can I Expect From A Little Ninja Birthday Party?

There will be a ton of laughing, safe Karate drills done, and a bunch of participation by all that want to join in. I do several classes per day in my Home Dojo delivered via Zoom to hundreds of students.

Here is one of my classes that I do every day. The class will be a version of this (but my wife would add ‘on steroids’ when it comes to parties).

Then there will be some extras like show and tell, how they can practice safely on their own, and lots of time to spotlight the birthday Ninja. This will be your Little Ninja’s day so it will center around him or her.

Who Can Attend Ninja Birthday Parties Online?

This is one of the exciting parts about these parties. You can literally invite anyone, from anywhere around the world. I have had parties with grandparents in India that attended and one’s where aunts in Japan were there.

Want to make a bunch of far away family member’s day? Want to include older family members that can’t travel? This the solution. I make sure to talk to everyone that attends, even if they don’t want me to. 😉

Toddlers might need some help, but I have regular students that start at 2 years old and they do great. In a party, with an adult’s help they will have a good time.

There can be family simply sitting and watching, and kids bouncing and Judo throwing ‘stuffies’ around the room. It is all up to you. I allow up to 100 connections for each party. I will be honest. A portion of them will not have the proper internet connection. With that many people it is bound to happen.

I would suggest around 30 or under, but that is up to you. Definitely try to include out of state or out of the country family. This is the perfect oportunity.

What Age Groups Are Best For One Of Master Booe’s Online Parties?

Just like my classes, my style of teaching and curriculum work great for ages 2 and up. As kids get into middle school ages though, my ‘dad jokes’ and humor tend to be a bit uncool.

From 2 years old through elementary grades, kids have a blast. With the younger ones, there may be a need for an adult or older sibling to help them along. I have many preschoolers that do my classes and parties. They all do great.

I have enough of these types of cards, some on topic and some with whatever their favorite thing at the moment is, to wallpaper my entire house. The little ones scribble and the older ones like to show me they can write. Trace mom’s letters more like it, but we won’t let them know I know.

When Can A Little Ninja Birthday Party Be Scheduled?

Available times vary and this is not a sales pitch: slots fill up weeks to months in advance. I have hundreds of students and they regularly have me do their birthday parties. If you are flexible with your date and time and are wanting to jump in the mix head to the next section below and register for the package that works best for you.

If you register first to secure your spot, just send me an email and I will get right back to you for scheduling. This can be done with the info you find after selecting your package and slamming the Book Now button.

If you are wanting to discuss the options or the available times, email me first and then you can register once everything is set. Find my email information by clicking on any of the Book Now buttons below.

To give you an example of what times can work for your party here is a few suggestions.

  • Monday through Friday – Ask about mornings and afternoons. I will happily put your party in with my class schedule for the day.
  • Monday through Friday – Evenings work good at 5 pm or 7 to 9 pm EST most every day. For those in other time zones, I am flexible and can set up a time that works for your family and guests.
  • Saturdays – These can be a good day for any time frame. I have a regular class schedule on Saturdays, but I can easily find a time that will work for you.
  • Sundays – I do not do classes or parties on Sundays.

Here’s what I hear from party attendees…

Master Booe,

Kaia had so much fun at Henrik’s birthday party!

Thanks for all the fun you’ve brought Kaia.

Ready To Set Up Your Little Ninja Birthday Party Online?

So what are the options when setting up one of my virtual birthday parties? All three of these have the same price for the party itself. There are just some great extras if you are wanting to up the wow factor that can be included.

Ninja Package

This is the core of the party itself. It will work as a complete party or as an additive with a local gathering or completely remote participants. It consists of a 30 minute high energy, dynamic class with an additional 15 minutes for spotlighting.

The class is a high energy time of jumping, kicking, yelling, chopping, and laughing. Interspersed in the mix, I will spotlight your Little Ninja and have them demonstrate their Karate moves and things we just learned.

There is usually three components to every class. There will be striking (kicking, blocking, and punching in the air, on ‘stuffies’, and paper targets). There is a weapons portion (using rolled up newspapers, paper towel rolls, or other things from around the house to swing in the air). Then we will do some Judo throwing and wrestling with ‘stuffies’ or pillows.

For the remainder 15 minutes there will be plenty of ‘fooling around’ where I joke with the kids, show some of what I use to train in karate, have them show me things they like, and spotlight the birthday Ninja of course.

If you are ready to register and book your Basic Ninja Party. Hit the Book Now button below.

Basic Ninja Online Birthday Package: $99.00

If you are wanting to add this to your child’s big day, don’t hesitate. We will work together to make it great. Book now.

Premium Ninja Package

With this one you get the same high energy class, spotlighting your Little Ninja, and fun / goofiness. Your kids and friends will be talking about it for days. This part is the same as the Basic Ninja Package.

With the Premium Ninja Package we are now going to team up to help your birthday child really let their super hero powers shine. This option includes a board to break sent directly to your house (continental U.S. only). This, you or another adult in the room will hold for them to break.

Don’t worry, these are the thinnest versions of the boards, and I will coach you on how to hold it for them. Not to mention, I will have them choose from one of three of the easiest ways to break it.

There is also a very cool Karate t-shirt that will be shipped with the board. This you can wrap as another gift or you can present it to the little board choppers after they complete their successful Hulk Smash.

This adds a great exclamation point on the end of a great party! If this is what you are looking for then just slam that Book Now button below!

I can’t resist a joke here.

It isn’t that all my Little Ninjas love Karate so much…

they just really hate boards!

Of course that is not true, but admit it. It made you smile.

How Does A Martial Arts Birthday Party Work Online?

There are a couple of easy components you and your party attendees will need to make your online celebration possible. The technology is something that most everyone has and it is easy to use to host or attend these parties.

You and your attendees will need a device to participate in or watch a party. This can be a desktop with a webcam and microphone. Other devices usually come equipped with these and can be used as well. They include laptops, smart phones, or tablets.

You will also need an internet connection. Trying this over a data plan on a smartphone could feasibly work, but problems will more than likely occur. A stable alternative is a wifi connection and the one that would be 100% effective is a ethernet cable connection.

Internet Connection For Virtual Birthday Parties

This may seem like a given or a ‘no brainer’, but the reason I include this here is to help those experiencing these events for the first time to understand how to get the best picture and sound. If they get any lag or skips in the connection it is easily remedied.

The number one problem I see in online classes and parties is frozen screen issues or a sort intermittent pausing of the picture of sound. This actually rarely happens, so that is the good news. Connections are so smooth now days that HD video and audio streaming is becoming a normal part of life.

Here’s How You Can Ensure All Of Your Participants Have A Seamless Streaming Experience.

Issues happen only on occasion and the problem is 99% of the time due to the student using a wifi connection too far away from the router. A wifi connection is usually never the problem in itself. These connections are done in my classes and parties from back yards, driveways, porches, basements etc.

There is never a problem if one precaution is taken. The device cannot be too far away from the physical router location. Bringing the device closer solves the problem nearly every time. On rare occasion a router needed to be restarted. The point is, these are very easy fixes and the problem is not that common.

As the host of the parties or classes, I always use an ethernet cable and plug in directly so my connection is never a problem. Either way you choose, you will have a great picture and sound on whatever device you choose to use if you do it right.

Use A Larger Connected Screen For A Dynamic Karate Party

Though tablets and phones are a great and are used by a large portion of my students and party goers, there is a way that a group of children have a ‘larger than life’ experience. Some of my parties and classes are streamed using a laptop which is hooked up to a larger television.

This makes it like I am right there with them. My new HD wide angle camera and HD microphone delivers a great quality stream.

For small or large groups in the same room this is a great option. This is also great for grandparents wanting to catch the all important vantage point of their ‘Grand-ninjas’.

This is just and option that helps with the experience. Try it and you might get to see what I see on a daily basis. Their little faces light up a room sometimes when you see surprise and delight spread across them.

The Best Streaming App For Party Participants is Zoom.

The app that I use is Zoom. This is a free service for all attendees to use as their connection app to my classes and parties. It is extremely easy to use and setup. I provide a link with an embedded password that you can then just open with one click into your favorite web browser and it nearly does it all for you.

Many large corporations are using this technology from Zoom as well as small business. Here is just one quote from a well respected user…

I never get asked about how to use Zoom – people just get accounts and I never hear from them again, all I see is the usage on the dashboard go up continuously.

In my experience it is the most reliable and easiest to use of all the apps. Other companies, classes, and event hosters may use other services, but they many times will have problems and pass high access fees on to the customer. That is you.

Here is a short video on how easy it is to get set up for free with Zoom.

The Little Ninja Birthday Parties Takeaway…

I know this may be a big decision for some and there if a lot of information that I just threw at you. I will lay it out in a quick rundown and maybe that can clear up any issues you may have.

First, we looked at how these online parties and events can connect family from around the world for your Ninja kid’s special day.

Then I let you see a taste of what you could expect and we saw that this will be a fun energy fest right from everyone’s own homes.

Then we looked at what ages could benefit from a party like this and who could attend and be a part, even if they aren’t kids and just want to watch.

Next we looked at what times are possibly available and looked at some examples of times that could work for a Little Ninja Birthday Celebration.

Then I gave a rundown of the three packages…

  • The Ninja Package – 30 minute class and 15 minutes of spotlighting the birthday boy or girl
  • The Premium Ninja Package – A breaking board and a cool ninja t-shirt
  • The Master Ninja Package – 1/2 price inclusion of a full term of my Online Karate classes offered for 9 weeks.

(Note: You can choose to mix and match the extras during checkout. Just choose the board/t-shirt option with or without the 1/2 price special on the Karate Online term. You can also select the Online Term addon without the board and t-shirt. It is up to you.)

Next I gave some pointers and technical details on how it all works. This is definitely easier than you think. There should not be any hesitation due to technical issues.

There you have it. These Little Ninja Birthday Parties are a blast. You can offer them in a way that makes you the hero of the day for your munchkin Karate star.

If you are wanting to get yours booked or you have some more questions just stomp on one of those Book Now Buttons above. I will be more than happy to work with you on your event.

Until I see you from my Home Dojo, stay safe and God bless.

Super Brain – Deepak Chopra

A manual for relating to the brain in a revolutionary new way, Super Brain shows you how to use your brain as a gateway for achieving health, happiness, and spiritual growth. The authors are two pioneers: bestselling author and physician Deepak Chopra and Harvard Medical School professor Rudolph E. Tanzi, one of the world’s foremost experts on the causes of Alzheimer’s. They have merged their wisdom and expertise for a bold new understanding of the “three-pound universe” and its untapped potential.

In contrast to the “baseline brain” that fulfills the tasks of everyday life, Chopra and Tanzi propose that, through a person’s increased self-awareness and conscious intention, the brain can be taught to reach far beyond its present limitations. “We are living in a golden age for brain research, but is this a golden age for your brain?” they ask.

Super Brain explains how it can be, by combining cutting-edge research and spiritual insights, demolishing the five most widespread myths about the brain that limit your potential, and then showing you methods to:

-Use your brain instead of letting it use you
-Create the ideal lifestyle for a healthy brain
-Reduce the risks of aging
-Promote happiness and well-being through the mind-body connection
-Access the enlightened brain, the gateway to freedom and bliss
-Overcome the most common challenges, such as memory loss, depression, anxiety, and obesity

Your brain is capable of incredible healing and constant reshaping. Through a new relationship with your brain you can transform your life. In Super Brain, Chopra and Tanzi guide you on a fascinating journey that envisions a leap in human evolution. The brain is not just the greatest gift that Nature has given us. It’s the gateway to an unlimited future that you can begin to live today.

Viru Valge Vodka

Viru Valge Vodka

Viru Valge is Estonia’s most popular and trusted high-quality vodka with its own traditions, decades of experience and long history. The genuinely Nordic vodka is the oldest spirits trademark in Estonia.
Despite the deep roots and strong traditions of Viru Valge, today, for it’s production Liviko is using most up-to-date and modern solutions.
Viru Valge comes from the whitest of the countries. In summer nights, the sun only sets for a brief moment, and in winter, the ground rests under a white carpet of snow with the first frost veiling the clear bogpools in dazzling white.
There are no large factories or cities in Viru Valge’s homeland, the local people are scattered miles away from each other and, as research confirms, the air they breathe is the cleanest in the world.
The water from the cystal-clear lakewater and the harvest from the rocky Nordic fields also yield the truly Nordic vodka Viru Valge.r.

I got stood up for a ‘date’ on the weekend. Something that was once an event that sucks but now … such is life. Sex and getting it, no long rules my life or even my sense of self. Not that I don’t enjoy opportunities when they present themselves, but the search – the seeking of opportunity no longer swallows all my time.

He was some guy who texted me on a gay ‘dating’ site and was very eager about meeting up, etc. etc. I take the whole process with an amused grain of salt. I’ve seen the same cock shots on different sites for different men apparently living not only in different cities but different continents. Yes I’ve looked – nothing warms up a sub-zero day like gazing at men in Brazil.

Guys on line are liars – who is shocked by that? I’m sure women are just capable…

Larry Kellogg on Dress Codes for Litigators Amid COVID-19

Larry Kellogg is featured in the Daily Business Review discussing how the global pandemic has changed the dress code for many South Florida litigators and why he’s still wearing a suit and tie. “For no reason other than when they’re looking at me they’ll think I’m a lawyer, and it makes me feel like it’s a more serious endeavor,” Kellogg said.

Four Factors to Consider When Purchasing Villas with Rooftop Pools in Phuket

One of the best things about owning property of your own is being able to customize it to your heart’s content and, in so doing, exert a sense of control over your life. In a world that can too often feel chaotic, being able to take control over an aspect of one’s life like that can be incredibly cathartic, to say nothing of the financial rewards that can come from investing in your property that way.

Of course, for as much as we may enjoy a drive towards customization and home improvement, you’ll first want to make sure that you’re purchasing a property which suits your desires in the first place. For citizens of Phuket, that can often mean purchasing a luxury property such as a villa.

Then again, maybe that alone isn’t enough, and you really want to up the level of luxury and pleasure present in your property. If that’s the case, you’ll want to consider purchasing a villa with a full-on rooftop pool installed. You’ll thus want to pay attention to these factors when looking to buy villas with a rooftop pool in Phuket.

  1. Why Opt for Rooftop Options?

First, let’s take a step back and reflect on why rooftop pools are so in-demand in the first place. The most obvious answer is that for a place like Phuket which projects an air of luxury, these types of roof-pool combos are the next step in asserting that. In addition, rooftop pools can be incredibly valuable from a property ownership standpoint, meaning that anyone who owns or rents out such a property is in possession of a very valuable asset. Investing in rooftop pools now can thus mean living in luxury today and possessing a fantastic asset which will likely accrue in value tomorrow.

  1. Reviewing Rooftop Pools

Of course, not all rooftop pools are created equal. You hardly want to invest all your time and effort trying to find a villa that features a rooftop pool only for the latter feature to be lackluster. Thankfully, the best rooftop pools gracing the top of Phuket’s top villas are anything but. You’ll be able to review these different rooftop pools ahead of time, and are sure to find them to be the picture of luxury.

  1. Pool Maintenance

Just as you don’t want to invest in a substandard pool, you don’t want to purchase a villa with a rooftop pool only for it to go to rack and ruin because of a lack of proper care. You’ll thus want to see if your villa offers any professional pool cleaning or maintenance services.

  1. Experience on Your Side

When making a financial decision as impactful in both the short- and long-term as investing in a villa with a rooftop pool, you’ll naturally want to buy from a team you can trust. That’s why the best villas offering such opulent features can typically boast decades of property management experience their credit, and a great customer service track record to match.

Get a great luxury rooftop pool atop a glamorous villa in Phuket.

OW5K Letter

Hello, dear original fiction writer!

First off, thank you and I’m so happy we could connect over one or more ships and/or characters! I strongly prefer science fiction or fantasy with an emphasis on characters or worldbuilding, but am eager to see whatever you come up with.

Prompts in the letter are grouped by what I’m most hoping to see from the fic, but is not an indicator of preference. I would love fic for absolutely any of these. If you get excited and want to write more than one ship, please, please, please, be my guest! Thank you again!

Original Works Exchange 2019 Letter

Thank you, dear creator, for making me something! I am truly appreciative of new material for my favorite characters and pairings and hope this letter is helpful to you.

I’ve tried to arrange the sections below as I requested them, in groups of gen / ship without smut / ship with smut / smut with ship, and with details about what kind of tone or story I’m hoping for. The order of relationships within each section is random. I assure you I want all of these equally as much.

At the top of the letter is all the general likes and dislikes separated by category as well. I tried to make it so for any request, you can just read the section and the generals and be good to go, so there’s a little repetition of general notes.

Thank you again!

Wilmot Feather Bow Tie by Brackish

  • $ 195.00

The Story | The name Wilmot comes from Wilmot Avenue in Columbia, SC where our co-founder, Ben, spent his first few years of life as a child and is one of the many roads that he considers “home.” And, as we’ve all been spending more time in our homes recently, may this design bring both reflection over the past few months and encouragement for what’s to come.
Product Details |  The Wilmot is crafted with vibrant blue peacock feathers and grey goose feathers that each have a unique marbling effect. Center wrap is black grosgrain. This style in particular takes intricate artisan craftsmanship so we're only able to release a few to keep the design consistent and up to our quality standards. So - if you like collectors items and want to snag a design that only a few other's will have - your chance is now.
    • No dyes are used, giving each bow tie a unique coloring.
    • Wrap around adjustable hook, fits sizes 11" to 20”.
    • Bow dimensions are 2.5” tall by 4.5” wide.
    • Feathers are all-natural and sustainably sourced.

    Packaged with Care | The Wilmot bow tie arrives in a hand-branded, pine gift box. Includes a list of the feathers used and instructions on how to care for your tie.

    Made in Charleston | Brackish Bow Ties are handcrafted in Charleston, S.C. and take between 4-5 hours to complete. Every feather is hand selected by our artisans, making no two ties exactly alike.

    Brackish Guarantee | We take pride in our work, so we stand behind our products. All Brackish pieces include a lifetime repair guarantee. Register your piece under our Brackish Guarantee to qualify.

<aaronjanse> Wow, crazy that the issue led to fixing a ZFS bug qyliss
edadqr has joined #spectrum
<aaronjanse> Would there be some way to build Nix derivations within a VM? I assume a user would typically just install all software beforehand, but it could be cool to be able to do `nix shell` inside a VM
cole-h has quit [Ping timeout: 240 seconds]
<qyliss> yeah, I think that would be good
<qyliss> the Nix part of Spectrum isn't very well thought through yet
<qyliss> that was in part because I wanted to fill this channel and the mailing list with as many Nix people as possible to provide input :P
<aaronjanse> Famous last works, but I don't think it would be too difficult to modify Nix to use crosvm as its build sandbox. I'm not sure if that would be useful at all
<qyliss> ideally I'd like Nix itself to run in a VM
<aaronjanse> Oh yep, that probably makes the most sense
<qyliss> have you looked at Nix's code? :P
<qyliss> but it could perhaps build in a different VM
<qyliss> one of my goals is to do as little on the host as possible
<qyliss> I don't even want it to know what networking is, ideally
<aaronjanse> I've looked at the Nix code. Its sandboxing code is fairly straightforward
<MichaelRaskin> Well, you will run the system built inside VM on the host anyway, but abusing that would require a targeted attack and then Sway is a cheaper target
<aaronjanse> I think it might make sense to have the build in a VM separate from Nix. That way, a chroot escape wouldn't mean compromising the integrity of the Nix daemon
<qyliss> yeah, although as MichaelRaskin says if you can produce malicious code that will be run as part of the built syste, it doesn't matter
<qyliss> but not every derivation produces code that will be run at runtime!
<MichaelRaskin> That's true…
<qyliss> so with a good sandbox, all your documentation and stuff is going to find it a lot harder to own your machine
<aaronjanse> I guess this all depends on whether dev VMs would build things inside the VM or send stuff to a daemon on the host machine
<qyliss> yeah
<aaronjanse> *"dev VMs" meaning VMs where the user is playing with Nix
<MichaelRaskin> Has anyone ever fuzzed the daemon connection
<qyliss> It's probably a good idea to keep the Nix that's responsible for building the whole system isolated, but I'm not sure
<aaronjanse> Not... yet!
<aaronjanse> MichaelRaskin: I might try that after exams next week. Last week I did a little fuzzing of Nix but didn't get far
<qyliss> my vision is increasingly of using Nix to build an immutable system image, that is small and rarely needs to change
<aaronjanse> qyliss: That makes sense
<qyliss> and in that model, it would make sense to use a totally different store and stuff from normal runtime Nix operations
<MichaelRaskin> > rarely needs to change > includes kernel, openssl, glibc, browser…
<MichaelRaskin> The host — maaaaybe
<qyliss> MichaelRaskin: I'm talking about the host
<MichaelRaskin> Soo, just KVM bugs to fix there?…
<qyliss> yeah
<qyliss> and VMM bugs
<qyliss> and then just bugs that would affect the bits of those systems we're using
<qyliss> dom0 in Qubes is usually very outdated, but it doesn't matter because it's not exposed to anything else, assuming there aren't any Xen escapes
<pie_> >w< cant wait for spectrum. maybe i can run discord without an immediate aneurism
<zgrep> qyliss: How often do they update Xen? :P
<zgrep> (I'd assume also infrequently, unless necessary.)
<qyliss> yeah
cole-h has joined #spectrum
ziq has joined #spectrum
<qyliss> I present the strace mailing list archive for this month: https://lists.strace.io/pipermail/strace-devel/2021-May/thread.html
<qyliss> I still didn't do the thing I started working on strace to do, whoops
<samueldr> whoops!
<MichaelRaskin> Will the yaks fear the rainbows soon?
<qyliss> wow, the VFIO documentation is really good https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/driver-api/vfio.html
<qyliss> which is surprising for Linux documentation
<qyliss> (except for the typo on the first line, which I sent a patch for already)
<cole-h> nice
<qyliss> was really helpful in figuring out what all the arguments to this ioctl QEMU is failing on are
<MichaelRaskin> I think when I needed something from in-tree Linux documentation to understand some command-line stuff use, the docs were pretty good.
<MichaelRaskin> Is it usually not so for ioctls?
<qyliss> often they're not even documented ime
<MichaelRaskin> Ah
<qyliss> ioctls are a bit of a mess in Linux
<qyliss> they're basically syscalls, but they receive _way_ less scrutiny
<MichaelRaskin> There are also /sys entries, I guess.
<MichaelRaskin> (But there I think even breaking userspace i permissible)
<qyliss> and you end up with e.g. two different filesystems implementing the same feature with two different ioctl APIs
<qyliss> hmm, I don't think it is?
<qyliss> but yeah, I suppose ioctls are at least not sysfs
<MichaelRaskin> I think BtrFS at some point tried to have … interesting opinions on what fallocate does
<MichaelRaskin> No ioctl's involved!
<MichaelRaskin> (fallocate on BtrFS was rounded up to a size divisible by a block, which makes sense, and then set file length to that rounded-up value — way less sensible. When I asked people shouldn't BtrFS do, erm, something compatible with POSIX fallocate definition, first question was whether this even talks about syscalls and not only libc functions)
<MichaelRaskin> (it got fixed later)
<qyliss> wow lol
<MichaelRaskin> It did get fixed and I can understand why it wasn't a top priority (it was annoying with Nix…), but the question impressed me
<qyliss> idk that strikes me as annoyingly pedantic
<qyliss> how would libc even work around that?
<MichaelRaskin> Well, worse than pedantic, because in what universe glibc could be plausibly expected to check which FS it even is
<qyliss> well, if there was an fallocate_shrink_a_bit syscall, glibc could just call that after every fallocate, on every filesystem!
<MichaelRaskin> I mean, a libc could in principle stat and ftruncate if needed, but…
<MichaelRaskin> I think it was even in Drepper's days. We know what he would reply to such an idea, and this one time I cannot say the substance would be wrong.
<qyliss> MichaelRaskin: wouldn't ftruncate just round again, though?
<qyliss> if it always rounds up, you can't just fix it up afterwards -- you'd just be repeating the same thing at all
<MichaelRaskin> Well, at least on BtrFS at that time, no.
<qyliss> oh, so it would only round up if the size was increasing or something?
<MichaelRaskin> It was possible to create a file with length not divisible by a block, after all!
<MichaelRaskin> It was specifically about fallocate
<qyliss> oh sorry I mixed up fallocate/ftruncate
<MichaelRaskin> Which is a bit vague-ish
<MichaelRaskin> Well, with ftruncate it would make so little sense they would notice it before releasing anything

Good TACTICS Deliver Great Results

Tactics are those actions and strategies that are carefully planned out to achieve a specific result. The word is synonymous with the military, especially during times of war. Military units carry our specific actions to achieve specific results.

Olympic athletes used tactics during training to ensure their body can operate at maximum capacity. They have a very specific result in mind when they train.

Speakers use tactics to direct an audience they are presenting to towards a specific goal as well. Sometimes it is to make a purchase, sometimes it is to motivate others into taking their own action.

Businesses use tactics to gain customers or clients as well as tactics to keep them.

So, how to we know which tactics to use?

Tactics are universal.

That seems like a breath of fresh air, doesn’t it?

TACTICS are those concepts that are:

Thought out

Action oriented

Credible     -and have-

Staying power

When all these elements go into your plan, these good tactics, will achieve great results. Developing good tactics takes time, effort, awareness, and motivation.

Thought out.

Before a strategy can be implemented it must be thoroughly thought out. It doesn’t have to be perfect. It doesn’t have to be complete. But it must be thorough. The nooks and crannies must be thought through. The entrance and exit strategies need to be thought through. How many people will it take to achieve results must be thought out.

Action Oriented.

The best results are achieved when achieved by actions.  Actions create motivation. Motivation fuels results. If you want great results, there must be consistent actions. Actions will only be successful, when they have been thought through.

Tactics that are catchy, like this acronym for example, work because they are easily remembered. If you are a sports nut, you might know that plays are often shortened numbers or words that everyone knows. The military uses acronyms for everything. Marketing is full if catch phrases. The catchier something is, the better.

For a tactic to work, there must be some testing. The best tactics are the ones that work. The ones that work are the ones that are tested.

This one may seem a little interesting, however the best tactics are the ones that are used, implemented, perhaps felt, but not seen. Think of the best sales tactics in business. In the military, it would be detrimental if the enemy know the tactics. The same in sports. Business is no different.

This is not about secrecy or shady practices it is about making your tactics feel like they are a seamless part of what you do and who you are.

Credibility is important in business. Having credible tactics will ensure that your values, ethics, morals, and other practices that are who you are will not become compromised. Credibility is built through relationships. Credibility is built through consistency.

Staying power.

The best tactics are the ones that you use over and over. This is the essence of sustainability and a thriving business. This is where legacy is constructed.

What tactics do you currently have in play in your business? Do you have a sustainable, thriving business? Would you like one? Would you like to take your business to the next level? Let’s talk.

Home Film reviews “Young Man With a Horn” A review (R.I.P, Kirk Douglas)

“Young Man With a Horn” A review (R.I.P, Kirk Douglas)

by Louisa Klein

In honor of the great actor Kirk Douglas who left us yesterday at the tender age of 103, here’s a review of one of my fav films of his.

“Young Man With a Horn” is a movie produced in 1949, starring a young but already very talented Kirk Douglas and two young and also very talented (and beautiful, of course) Doris Day and Lauren Bacall. The film was adapted by Carl Foreman and Edmund H. North from a novel by Dorothy Baker, loosely based on the  tragic life of great jazz musician Bix Beiderbecke, here named Rick Martin, one of the very few white guys who ‘made it’ in an environment dominated by  genius black musicians in the jazz scene in the early 20s.

The film has a long introduction showing   Rick’s sad and lonely childhood, during which his love for music in general and jazz in particular was his only comfort. It’s long and most people nowadays would find it boring, since we now have the attention span of a gold fish, thanks to social media.  If you’re patience enough, you can watch and learn something about a long gone America (the good and the bad), the life in the slums and how music flourished in the most unexpected places.

Although, I have to admit, the script could have been better written and the 3 leads don’t have  a lot to work with, their  performance is outstanding and the music is amazing   Douglas’ trumpeteering being effectively dubbed by Harry James, while jazz pianists Buddy Cole and Jimmy Zito make uncredited soundtrack contributions. Doris Day sings two beautiful, old – fashion songs that are just the icing on the cake.

As I mentioned above, this movie is based on a musician’s tragic life, so expect no comedy and be ready to shed some tears, especially when we see him struggle with alcoholism and the lack of inspiration. Still, in spite of the sadness, this is one of Kirk Douglas’ hidden gems, a wonderful trampoline to more commercial and high-budget movies such as “Spartacus” and “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea”.

With all of this free time on our hands, a lot of people are looking to the Animal Crossing video game series to occupy themselves. Why is this relevant to rock and metal? Because you can design band tees based on your favorite artists for your character to wear while you play.

For those who aren't familiar, Animal Crossing is an open-ended Nintendo game where you get to live in a town full of animals. The game was first introduced in 2001 on the Nintendo 64, and made an appearance every few years after on a different system. It was brought back in 2020 on the new Nintendo Switch, and has become popular on social media in the form of memes.

Now that people are stuck inside, they've really delved into the game and its design features, which allow you to make your own clothing for your character. A plethora of images started surfacing on the internet over the last few days of peoples' characters sporting band tees — Slipknot, Tool, Metallica, Slayer and more. Some have even created posters for their homes' walls.

Scroll through the images below to see some tweets and reddit posts of the virtual band tees. In dark times, it's always refreshing to find a little light.

YES, Coconut Oil is still good for you.

Love Grace First Post, Health, Love Your Body

There’s been a lot of buzz in the media lately putting down one of our favorite magic ingredients: coconut oil.

So we’re swooping in to set things straight 🙂

It’s super important to first note that not all coconut oils are created equal. When we talk about the coconut oil we love, we’re talking about that good 100% organic, raw extra-virgin stuff. Very different from all RBD processed oils – refined, bleached and deodorized… not so natural sounding eh… so that’s the version you really don’t need it in your life for health.

Now let’s dive into the major controversy:

Does coconut oil make you fat?

Well, do blueberries make you blue?

It’s kind of just as ridiculous an assumption as that.

The latest buzzing articles anti-coconut oil accuse it of being “high in fat” so consuming it is counter-productive to fat loss. Let’s look at the science.

One of our favourite studies from NYU langone has shown that the fat in coconut oil actually activates your metabolism, by stimulating uncoupling protein 1 expression.

Another amazing study monitored weight loss amongst two groups – all factors the remained the same from how many calories they cut to how much they walked each day. The results? ONLY the group consuming coconut oil daily experienced a statistically significant reduction in waist circumference – which is the most telling body fat measurement for determining health risks.

What about your heart? Doesn’t saturated fat increase cholesterol?

The latest buzzy articles say that coconut oil will “Raise LDL protein…which is extremely bad for your health”.

Back to the science. A major study recorded the health differences of participants after 12 weeks of consuming coconut oil vs. soy oil. The coconut oil group experienced a boost in the ‘good’ HDL cholesterol, a reduction in LDL (bad) cholesterol and an improvement in the HDL to LDL ratio. The soy oil group experienced the opposite.

Pretty amazing, no?

And study after study, you will find the same results. You can quote me on this: there is no statistical evidence showing any negative effects directly related to the saturated fat in coconut oil.

But yes, there is evidence showing the negative effects in heavily processed Twinkies and junk products that also contain saturated fat. But that’s not really relevant to us since we only eat real food 😉

It’s proven that these different forms of saturated fats react differently in your body. There are many types of saturated fats based on how many carbon atoms are in each molecule – and coconut oil surprisingly high in the type called ‘lauric acid’ which explains why it is so magic in its beneficial HDL effects, unlike twinkies. Natural and unrefined plant-based oils are more than just plain old fats. They’re so packed with antioxidants and beneficial compounds, that there’s so much more to be said about them than just their effects on HDL and LDL. It’a lot wiser to look at the whole picture – nothing functions in isolation, especially not in our bodies!

A natural whole food is a different thing entirely from processed chemicals. Science has a funny way of getting oversimplified and lost in translation sometimes.

So is coconut oil ever ‘bad’? With everything, we need to be realistic as there is always such a thing as “too much of a good thing”. If you’re downing spoonfuls of coconut oil by the hour, then yeah, just like any binge you’re not going to feel your sexiest or skinniest. It is extremely calorie dense, and there’s just no need to down it by the jar. Overdoing any food to an extreme will not benefit you, no matter how healthy it is.

If you’re concerned about the health of your heart – we invite you to do your own research on the matter and do what feels best to you. Don’t let the latest media blasts by the American Heart Association – an organization heavily sponsored by the countries major pharmaceutical companies – scare you until you do your own research.  (Obviously, the drug companys’ goals are not to sell less drugs). And if you’re deciding between coconut oil in your coffee or a cup of AHA approved sugary breakfast cereals – the choice should be pretty clear!

We believe coconut oil can stay in your good books. Coconuts have been respected and loved as a food source for thousands of years by extremely healthy and vigorous cultures, and no article can change that history. Please feel free to continue to use it as normal in your smoothies, chocolates, cooking etc and at the very least, in your moisturizer, oil pulling, makeup remover, after-sun, hair masks… all of it.

Find it in our superfood smoothies too!

We promise you, science has your back and so do we 🙂

My First Ever Ultimate Frisbee Tournament

This post was due weeks ago, but I’m just a slacker.

Anyway, last December 11, my officemates who are frisbee addicts and I decided to take our love for the disc to another level. We signed up for an Ultimate tourney, Catch which was made possible by the UP Engineering Radio Guild (UP ERG). It’s a yearly tournament held by the organization. Good thing somebody stumbled about this announcement here.

So, here’s us before the game. Not all of us though. Some were busy preparing their stuff, securing our things, etc.

We called ourselves ADIKs for some specific reasons. We’re 14 all in all — 11 gents and 3 ladies. Too bad O can’t make it. Said she can walk, she can hop, but she can’t run. 🙁
And zoom this!

Yes, they were all wearing studs, football studs, but since we are using them for the ultimate frisbee game, then we shall call them Frisbee cleats. Get it? Days before the game, rain was pouring hard all over the metro. And for the big day, we were all praying that He’d make the sun show instead of sending rain. Mister Sun showed up all right, but only for a while. And it was no use. The field was all muddy. Thank goodness I borrowed studs! Yay! 🙂 I couldn’t have run on the UP Fields wearing ordinary sneakers. My new shoes would’ve aged fast, so I was really happy that I have produced studs for myself. Aha.

A shot before the game. We were observing at our possible opponents. Know their capacities and take note of their plays. (As if). This was right after we shared over the sunscreen that I brought with me. Yes, it served the entire team. Can you spot me? Fully geared, huh? Haha. I even had a color theme — pink and black and grey. Lol. And I wear earrings and my necklace while playing. Can’t without them.
Picture picture before the game. We soooo excited! Especially me. Haha. I’m not sporty, so imagine the feelings that I have when I learnt that I was about to play my first ever tourney. First ever in my whole life!
Victory shot! Woohoo! First game, first win! And mud already covered our socks and shoes. A little mud, sweat and sun can be good sometimes. Look at our pride smiles!
Victory shot II! We just can’t get enough. Lol. 🙂
Our second game. The opponents agreed on the 5-2 split up (5 gents and 2 ladies), which was good so that one of the girls can rest for a while. We fought against some UP team who were so effing good. The start was great, but they change the entire line up every after two points that they accumulate. So, they always have fresh legs. We didn’t have a game plan, so there. I guess you know who won. (I am fattttt. 🙁 )
In this shot, I’m on the bench, but there’s no bench. Haha. (My humor sucks, eh?) If you’ll zoom in, you’ll see that I’m smiling at the camera. I, who took the shot, was not able to join the tourney because he has Saturday classes. But he was there to give his support. 🙂
Wish there were more actions shots like this one. Can you see me running? The field was kind of wet, so we were having a hard time running around. See the puddles of water on the left portion of the pic? The colloidal solution (as per Big Bang Theory) could actually splat up to your face. So, eww, but you enjoy it.
In between games. It rained! So it was during my first ever tourney that I have experienced my first ever wet Frisbee game! Enjoyed it. Though I kinda loathed the latter part when the rain started to wash away the sun block on my face. Some got into my eye and it stung a little. It was chilly!! And we ate lunch while we were wet. Haven’t had the chance to change because we have a game after that.
Two losses and we’re out. But, we thought it was a good thing since it was already four in the afternoon. (Sour graping isn’t our thing, finding some good, blessing-in-disguise thoughts is.) Mud all over and we smelled bad. Really bad. And for those who dived, woah, hands down! To MM, P and L. Whew, great dive, guys!
We definitely had FUN! And we are absolutely game to join the next tournament! Practice more. And for me, buy my Frisbee cleats. Maybe next year. And more sports clothes. Ahaha. #FeelingSporty
And what a better way to end this day with a sumptuous dinner. Ate at Kanin Club. Thanks A for the extra cash. 🙂 Loved everything they served especially the crispy dinuguan. Should make a food review about this resto. I was full. At the end of the day, the calorie jamboree was just sort of a cycle. I lost some, I gained more. Tragic story.
Boo Hoo! Just kiddin. One of the memorable days for 2011. Should make more in the upcoming year. I’m a quarter past my life, but I still get to do another first! 🙂 Life is always beautiful. Try new things. Have fun. Live.
*Picture credits go to A and moi. Thanks amuchoo 🙂 I’m glad the NCGs were there to revive the Frisbee Tuesdays and Thursdays. Gotta party with them this Thurs! 🙂

Meet Doug Roper & Phoenix Theatre Management Society

The Phoenix Theatre began as a vision that citizens of Fort Nelson had to create a local space for community theatre and arts programs. Thanks to hard-working, dedicated community members, the local Arts Council and the city, The Phoenix opened to the public in 1992. Its major mandate is to encourage and promote local artists and arts programs. The Phoenix is managed by a board of directors and revenues generated through ticket sales and rentals help to maintain the theatre and boost the local arts community.

Doug Roper is the General Manager of The Phoenix and credits the citizens and businesses of Fort Nelson with the ongoing success of the theatre and its programming. People in a small town tend to have a greater sense of community and take community improvement more seriously than people living in a city. In Fort Nelson, people are friendly and caring and willing to do their part to make the town a better place to live. "Fort Nelson has a lot of spirit!" says Doug.

Meetings may occasionally be held in nature with family members and children joining in for joyful gatherings filled with special activities and the experience of love, peace and harmony in everyday life.

Contact a Master Sha Tao Center for details on applying as a World Family Volunteer.
