Plants with Extrafloral Nectaries

Why are there ants on the peony buds?
ants on peony extrafloral nectaries
Ants taking nectar from peony extrafloral nectaries.
The simple answer is because peony buds secrete nectar (sugar water).
drop of nectar on peony bud
Drop of nectar on peony bud (upper right)
Why do peony buds secrete nectar?

There is no definitive answer to that question, but, based on studies of other plants, to attract ants which defend the plant from damage.

Plant Story--Peonies from Europe

Its always a joy when the peonies flower!

Europeans have been using two of their five native peonies, the female peony Paeonia officinalis (link) and the male peony P. mascula (link) medicinally for millennia.

It is not obvious today why they are called male and female. It does not reflect the botany. Both are male, in the sense of having pollen (sperm) and both are female, in the sense of having eggs within ovules that develop into seeds. In both species, both "male" and "female" function occur within the same flower (hermaphrodite flowers). Furthermore that explanation is relatively recent--that plants did any kind of sexual reproduction was one of Linneaus' absolutely shocking suggestions in the late 1700s. Peonies were called male and female long before that.

The Bynums in Remarkable Plants suggest that the designation reflects the relative size and vigor of the two plants, male peonies being larger than female peonies.

Plant Stories: Peonies from the Orient

Peonies! Wonderful big flowers and a rich scent. No wonder they've been favorites for millennia.

Peonies are plants of the genus Paeonia. It is the only genus in the peony family, the Paeoniaceae. There are 33 species, very like each other and not like much of anything else. They have an odd distribution: two species are native to the western US, a few species are found in southern Europe and across Asia but most peonies are native to eastern Asia.

The Chinese have been cultivating peonies for more than 3,000 years (written records from the early Zhou Dynasty (1046-256 BCE)), creating hybrids, doubles and new colors. The Chinese particularly liked tree peonies (dan), which are native only to China and available but not particularly common elsewhere. But they also loved herbaceous peonies (sháoyào).

Where to Buy Milkweeds to Grow in Colorado

Colorado, straddling the Rocky Mountains, has, on the eastern side--Front Range--monarch butterflies from the eastern North American population and on the Western Slope, butterflies from the western monarch population. Colorado doesn't fit neatly into the current "Grow Milkweeds for Monarchs!" push because the common milkweed, Asclepias syriaca is not native here.

Monarch caterpillars eat only milkweeds, so reductions in milkweed populations reduce monarch butterfly numbers.
showy milkweed, Asclepias speciosa
a Colorado milkweed
showy milkweed, Asclepias speciosa
Milkweeds are native all across North America--there are 140 species--but that "weed" in their name makes us assume they are ubiquitous. Far from it. Planting milkweeds to help monarch butterflies find it easier to find food for their larvave makes very good sense.

The common milkweed (A. syriaca) doesn't grow in Colorado. Since there are 19 species of milkweed native to Colorado, it only makes sense to grow those. The easiest to grow is the showy milkweed, Asclepias speciosa It is the milkweed you see in Colrado side-lots and roadside ditches. It looks a lot like the common milkweed.

      Hi beena!Thank you for trying it out…
      I have updated the recipe with step by step pics..Hope that will be useful..Did u use regular chili powder??Try using kashmiri chili powder for a lovely red color.
      and also u should cook the masala for about 1 to 2 minutes so that it turns a bit darker and it also helps the flavor to develop.

The Hot Seat: Stephen Pavlovic

Published in The Music Network

Stephen Pavlovic is founder of the hugely successful Sydney- based record label, touring company and international brand, Modular. This year, “Pav” added to his CV the title of curator for the VIVID Live programme. TMN caught up with the music man just hours before VIVID Live kicked off.

Pav, can you give me an idea of what goes into this event?

An incredible amount of patience, government funding, luck and all the planets aligning themselves. The reality is, a lot of energy has gone into it, and a lot of people have worked hard on it over the past four months. As curator, my job is probably the easiest. I get the nice end of it. Of course it was a big honour to get a tap on the shoulder. To be asked to curate at such an iconic building, well, it was an exciting, proud, honouring experience.

Have you been losing hair or going grey in the build-up?

I don’t lose hair or go grey over anything. When things get hot in the kitchen, I tend to sleep more. I have a beautiful ability to just sleep it out. Then when I get up I feel better about it all. I just believe that everything I do is going to be good. I go about what I believe in, that something good is going to happen to me today.

How did you pull off the coup of booking The Cure?

That’s the one thing that required the most patience. It took a long time. I got in touch with Robert Smith, who looks after the Cure’s affairs himself. The actual concept they wanted took time to take shape and we weren’t able to get them to commit in time for when we wanted to announce the festival. I figured, let’s just throw out any imposed deadlines and this thing will work itself out if it’s meant to be. Everyone was up for it, so we just had to be patient and work through all the details. If it happened the day before the show, then great. It’s still a good result.

And there’s a rumour of the Cure signing with Modular?

(Laughs). I think that’s just a bunch of bored people at a website (making it up).

When the bill was announced, you took some flack about booking a number of Modular acts. What’s your response to that?

If someone invited me to a kids’ party and I brought someone else’s kid, they’d think it was pretty fucking strange. Look, if anyone wants to assume I wouldn’t book some of my artists on the bill – artists that were relevant – then you’d be tripping. I’d say the majority of the lineup isn’t on the Modular roster. Modular hasn’t signed the Odd Future, Spiritualized, Bat for Lashes, The Crystal Ark, Yo Gabba Gabba, Sonny Rollins, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble. I’d say, “Look at the scoreboard and weep.” That’s what I was told to say when I was playing football and people were crapping on you. Point to the scoreboard, and keep yourself focused on what you’re there to do. I was paid to do the job, I’ve done it very well.

Yo Gabba Gabba was an interesting choice. Is that booking a sign of your fatherhood?

No, it’s a sign of my misspent youth that I can still find something like that so appealing. They have great pop songs with great messages, like Party In My Tummy and Don’t Bite Your Friends. Most kids TV is insipid. But it’s great that there is something you can enjoy with your child.

There’s a huge buzz on OFWGKTA (Odd Future Wolf Gang Kill Them All). Was it tricky booking an act with floating membership, with some youngsters in the group?

Nah, they were the first band we booked and signed up to VIVID. It’s all about timing and I was in the right place at the right time I made the right call to the right person and it was done and dusted in no time flat. To make that phone call now, you’d be in the ring with everybody else. But at the time, I was ahead of the curve.

You’ve signed Sneaky Sound System to Modular. Do you have big plans for them?

Their new album is awesome. I asked Angus (McDonald) for a copy, I put it in my car and I listened to it over and over. The planets aligned and we were on the same page at the right time. I don’t intellectualise about what I do, and how I do it. If I like something then I have an overwhelming need to want to share it with people.

You told me some years ago the Avalanches had recorded a second album, but they’d scrapped it. Is there any news on that long-awaited second album?

We are on the home stretch. Most of the album is there, it just needs some tweaking to the production elements. But the structure and songs are all done. We’ll probably see a song from it this year. The reason they’re DJing at VIVID is because they’ve been in the studio for 10 years, so to speak. But they’re finished, and they’re celebrating. And they’re going to have a little party to celebrate finishing it. The next stage will see the album go to someone to mix. And then we’ll probably drop a song later this year, and the album early next year.

Is there a new Ladyhawke album coming?

Pip is really close. The album is pretty much done. We’re looking at dropping a song in the last quarter of this year.

What’s your final word on VIVID Live?

Don’t let the lights go out.

The third annual VIVID Live at the Sydney Opera House began May 27 and concludes June 5.

Hot Seat: David Albert CEO, Alberts

Published in The Music Network

David, you’re overseeing some key changes at Albert Music. From now on, the company will officially be known as Alberts?

That’s right. Everybody I talk to either locally or overseas calls us Alberts. When we talk about ourselves internally, we call ourselves Alberts. It made sense to have it as our brand. And it aims to reduce any confusion around whether we are the publisher (J Albert & Son), the music studio (Albert Studios) or our famous record label (Albert Productions), which is tied very closely to AC/DC. Our goal is to utilise all these aspects to continue to develop a creative music rights management business. Alberts pulls together all the components of the business. We’ve also given the logo a (revamp). We believe we now have an old classic with a contemporary touch.

Was there a sense that Alberts had a dusty image?

Yeah. There have been a few different terms used to describe it. Why? Well, we’ve been around for such a long time, and as a family business it’s always been fiercely independent and very private. Until last year when we celebrated our 125th anniversary, we’d not done any real publicity. That gave us a moment to think about what sort of business we want to be, our strengths. Alberts has always been about music. And the business seems to be able to change at different times in different ways. That’s how we need to be thinking at the moment.

What’s your vision for the company?

It’s about building the model of the creative rights-management company and using a creative-services approach. And it’s about having an international focus. You need to be able to break internationally in some way to really build a long-term career. We’re also trying to drive the studio as an opportunity for our artists and writers to use. The studio is the heart and soul of what we do.

The industry’s problems are well documented. Are there any solutions?

You have to be metered in the way that you approach things like creativity and artist development. Being measured, but taking risks. You have to look at other ways to seek out a return, like song pitching and having a strong licensing team and relationships both locally and overseas. In Australia, we have some very strong record companies. We’ve got a strong collecting society in APRA/AMCOS. We’ve got some amazing talent. Bands like the Jezabels are the future of what the Australian music will be like. With Google coming into the fold, that’s another new opportunity. The challenge is how the licensing will happen and what the royalties will be around that. And getting the majors and Google on the same page. Piracy is an issue, but it’s hard to believe that piracy will ever go away.

You were born into the company. Has there been pressure on you from a young age?

No, far from it. For the first 15 years of my life I was involved with marketing. I came into the business about seven years ago, at a time when dad was the chairman of the business, and he was looking to have an Albert involved in a more day-to-day basis. As a family, we’re all of the belief that the music business is the cornerstone of our heritage and our name. There seemed to be a need to have an Albert on the ground in the business to help in regard of setting the vision going forward.

Is Megan Washington planning a new album anytime soon?

She’s writing all the time. But the number one driver at the moment is the U.S and U.K., and touring those markets. She’s signed record deals in the U.K. and U.S., which is incredibly exciting. Megan has an incredible jazz talent but she’s just so driven. She’s very smart too. She understands the music business. She understands when you need to be commercially-minded and when she needs to be independent-minded. And she seems to be able to balance it all extremely well.

There’s rumour of a new AC/DC album in the works?

Angus and Malcolm are writing all the time. But you’ll have to wait for the announcement on that one. One thing we can all agree on, they’ve always done things at the right time. And only at the point when they’re ready to make something new or take another step. They’ve worked bloody hard to make it work.

Is Alberts regularly approached by acquisitive partners?

We’ve definitely been approached. But my uncle, my grandfather, my great grandfather and my great great grandfather would turn in their graves if they had an inkling that we were going to sell this. It’s definitely not part of the plan.

The Hot Seat: Carl Cox

Published in The Music Network

Carl, Australia is a long way from where the big action is in the dance scene. Why did you relocate?

This place has the essence of life; it gives me sensibility and grounding. There’s a lot of great energy here. In the sense of the arts and music in Melbourne, there’s just so much going on. Every time I’ve come to Australia since 1988, I’ve probably done my best sets in Melbourne. It feels like I’m coming home when I play in Melbourne.

I’ve been doing what I’m doing for nearly 30 years. There’s going to be a point when I hang up my turntables. When that’s done, I’ll kick back and enjoy what Australia’s got to offer. Until then, I’m still being creative in the sense of my DJ sets, my record label, my radio shows and creating my own music.

You have a new album out this year.

It’s called All Roads Lead to the Dancefloor, and all the artists on it are from Melbourne. I’ve been working with Josh Abrahams and David Carbone; there’s a lot of talent here and I want people to see that. It’s probably the most technical, sound-enforced music I’ve made. It’ll come out this year through Intec, my own label. This is the first time I’ve represented my own music on the label. All Roads Lead To The Dancefloor will be delivered on a USB format-only, in three different configurations. The USB stick will contain various interactive elements and bonus content].

Is now a good or bad time to launch a label?

It’s a good time, I think. It’s quite easy to do now and it’s not as cash-heavy to set-up a label as it was in the early days. The problem now is that you don’t have anything tangible. I’ve got more than 150,000 pieces of vinyl. There’s nothing better than caressing a piece of vinyl. Illegal downloading really has killed the industry.

If anyone wants to make an album, it’s going to cost $50,000. It can be a lot less, but that’s money you might not have if someone downloads and shares it to the rest of the world for nothing. That’s a lot of money to lose. But it’s also about your music being shared by others, which costs you time, energy and your talent. No-one’s music is there to be thrown away.

How did you get started in this business?

I started playing music when I was 8-9 years old. The best grounding I ever had from a DJ and performing point-of-view was from playing weddings. When you’re playing weddings you have all types of people who want you to rock it for them. Some people want Madonna, some want Adam and the Ants with Elvis Presley chucked in for good measure. Eventually it all came together. I played weddings for at least 12 years of my life, and probably became one of the best wedding DJs of the moment.

How did you find the transition from vinyl to digital?

It was a big scary change. I never thought in a million years that the CD player would replace the turntable. Then Pioneer brought out a machine that could emulate the turntable. When I first saw it I thought an alien aircraft had landed. From a technical point of view, it’s fantastic.

From 2005 I stopped buying vinyl and started burning music onto CDs using download sites like Beatport, TrackitDown, DJsUnlimited. Behind all that was the Final Scratch system, which is now called Traktor. I will probably end my career on Traktor.

What’s the problem with clubland?

It’s difficult here in Australia. Every club owner wants to make money and nothing’s stable. There’s a point where I’ll be playing a venue for two years, and because we’re making a certain amount of money they decide to turn it into something else. That’s happening all over this country. The London club Fabric started off as a dance club and its still there today after ten years. That’s what you need, some stability.

You’ve had a few film roles. Anything in the works?

I’m working on a series for American TV called DJ’s Diaries. It’s a day-in-the-life, or rather, the years-in-the- life of Carl Cox, played by actors. We did a pilot and we’re looking at one of the big companies to pick it up. We’re hoping for that to come out by the middle of 2011.

Any plans to hang up those headphones?

Not any time soon. But there will come a point. I’ve given most of my life to nightlife. It’d be nice to see daylight for a change.

Carl Cox’s fourth artist album All Roads Lead To The Dancefloor will be released in three phases from August 1. Family Guy single arrives July 4.

The Hot Seat: Troy Carter, Lady Gaga’s worldwide manager

Published in The Music Network

Lady Gaga has done some phenomenal business. How do you manage an artist like Gaga?

She’s incredibly intuitive in regards to how things are supposed to roll out. She and I are partners. We talk a lot in terms of strategy and specifically the set-up around the Born This Way record. She’s really involved on a day-to-day basis. Gaga is 24 hours a day, seven days a week. She pretty much keeps me busy.

You also run Atom Factory, and Coalition Media Group? How do they fit together?

Coalition is the parent company, and Atom Factory is the management division. We have Atom Digital, which is the digital marketing company; we work with everybody from Sony Pictures to Coty Fragrances, and a bunch of artists hire its services. We also have a music licensing division, a producer-and-DJ management division and a VC (venture capitalist) firm. We do angel investment in companies. We’re busy.

What’s the greatest lesson you’ve learned from managing someone of Gaga’s scale?

Don’t rest on your laurels. We don’t take anything for granted. We just get out there and work just as hard as we worked four years ago. We’re going to work more on Born This Way than we worked on the first album. You just can’t take the fans for granted and you can’t take the marketplace for granted.

You’re from an urban background. How did you bring that to the mix?

The fundaments of management are the same. Management has to really sincerely care about the artist, whether it’s R&B, hip hop, pop or folk music. We approached managing Gaga in the beginning like she was a hip hop act. We didn’t know a pop star wasn’t supposed to be doing two or three shows a day. We applied the same hustle that we put into managing a rap act. It’s something we’ve done since the beginning of time in hip hop. It worked well with pop music.

The lead single is reportedly the fastest to hit one million sales. Are record sales still something worth chasing?

Absolutely. Record sales are a great barometer to see how you’re doing in the commercial marketplace. We also look at web traffic, ticket sales, merchandise sales. All of those things are a factor. Are there any concepts Gaga has laid-out that you had to knock back? No. Creatively, I trust her instincts. We’re always looking for the biggest idea. We’re always working to try things that haven’t been done before. The crazier the idea, for me, the better. That’s what the world wants to see.

So what next with Gaga?

The Born This Way album. It’s about singular focus right now. All the energy over the next couple of years will be put into promoting this album around the world.

You’ve said in the past that Australia and Canada were the first places where Gaga broke. What happened there?

Australia has good taste. Aside from that, Australia and Canada don’t tend to just follow. Many markets simply follow what’s happening in America. When you look at band like Kings of Leon and the success Pink had, Australia just embraces things earlier. They’re two places that aren’t afraid to take chances.

Any visits to Australia on the cards?

Oh yeah, we’re coming to Australia. We’ll make a couple of trips. And we’re going to stay there for a while when we come. We were over there when Pink was playing and it was a great lesson for us to learn. When you invest in a country like [Pink did], a country will invest in you. It wasn’t about Pink going over there and piling everyone into a few stadiums for a few nights. She went over there and lived there and became part of the culture. We’ll be there in July to promote the album. Then we’re back out that way… well… it’ll be a surprise.

Carter is a speaker at the Musexpo summit in L.A this week (May 1-4).

Born This Way is out May 23 through Universal.

Art Walks on Long Island

From Greenport to Oyster Bay, Long Island art gallery owners, restaurateurs and shopkeepers are embracing a popular approach to revitalizing downtown areas—the art walk. The walks are often collaborations between municipalities or chambers of commerce, galleries and local shops and eateries. Galleries stay open later on a given night each month and restaurants and shops reap the benefits of a regular event that draws crowds onto main streets.

From end to end, Long Island’s walks are cropping up more frequently. Greenport has hosted a gallery walk for five years—one of the longest running around—and Patchogue Arts Council’s Walking Arts Tour will be celebrating its fourth birthday this year. There are a handful of up-and-coming art walks riding on the coattails of these successful events. East Hampton just inaugurated a Thursday night art walk for the summer season, according to published reports, and one for the Bay Shore area is in the works, said Beth Giacummo, the curatorial administrator and curator at the Islip Art Museum. An art walk may also be added to the Community Art Festival in Brentwood, said Margarita Espada, a community organizer for Long Island Wins in Port Washington.

Not all art walks have generated positive results, though. And often, weather or departure of even one participant greatly impacts the whole. The monthly art event in Oyster Bay has suffered since Bonnie Boisits, the owner of the Chase Edwards Gallery, left for an opportunity in Sag Harbor this summer. Christine Benjamin, owner of art collective Art (that matters) in Oyster Bay, said that while there are four galleries and a handful of restaurants still involved, she’s considering only participating in the warmer months and dropping out in the slower winter time. “There’s so much there, but not enough people are taking advantage of it,” Benjamin said.

The Greenport Gallery Walk received a financial boost from money donated by the village’s Business Improvement District, a chamber-type organization, said Joyce deCordova, who co-owns the deCordova Studio & Gallery with her husband, Hector. About three years ago, the Greenport BID generated the funds that created brochures and local advertisements and a variety of businesses benefited. One, Greenport Harbor Brewery enjoys bringing art enthusiasts to their craft beer samplings, while the business’s regulars get a taste of the art world the third Saturday of each month.

In Northport, LaMantia Gallery is usually 50 percent busier on the Sundays their ArtWalk is held, according to its owner. Apparently the key is a new tactic Northport ArtWalk’s organizers have taken—event-goers take their maps to each gallery, get it stamped by an artist and then redeem them at a booth for a prize. Because walkers come in with their maps for stamps, LaMantia can tell how much of its Sunday traffic is actually from the event.

Giacummo, an artist herself, hopes one today to coordinate and connect all Long Island art walks. She added that Sayville holds a one-day art walk, and Bellport organizes a weekend-long event each year. “Since it’s a trend on the Island to have art walks, the idea is to link from one council to another,” Giacummo said. “Hopefully, in the long run we can link them all together.”

Kickoff, 2019 Infinite Recharge

We are FIRST Robotics Team 2582, the Lufkin High School PantherBots. What started as a group of 15 daring souls in 2008 has grown into a team of 43 students ranging from freshmen to seniors united with the unique goal of participating in what is called by its creator, ‘a sport of the mind’.

Every spring we, along with 4000 other teams world-wide, embark on an adventure in engineering called the FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) Robotics Challenge (FRC). FIRST challenges teams of students to design, build and program a robot in six weeks. The game is different every year and in the past has included games built on NASCAR, soccer, basketball, and Frisbee-golf. 100,000 students from 35 countries around the world hotly anticipate the first Saturday of January which heralds the release of the challenge for the year.

As you might expect, building a robot is no easy task. We start from scratch with nothing but a basic kit of parts, some very dedicated students, parents, and engineering mentors. With just our wits, common sense, and mentors we honor the words uttered by John F. Kennedy, “We choose to go to the moon, not because it is easy but because it is hard.” Like our FIRST peers, our ‘moon’ is the successful completion of a robot that we are able to put on the game field.

2013 Ultimate Ascent

Over the course of our history we have brought home trophies and performed well in our competition but FIRST is not really about winning (do not get us wrong, winning is a lot of fun): it is about the journey you take when you choose to participate on a FIRST robotics team and the changes it creates in your life.

In our distinguished history we have brought home five trophies; 2nd Place Finalist, Rookie Inspiration, Judges Award, Excellence in Engineering, and the Rockwell Innovation in Automation award. We have advanced to elimination rounds ten of thirteen years, consistently ranking in the top 15 robots out of a 60 team field. In 2019 we advanced to the FIRST World Championship held in Houston, Texas where we competed with close to 500 of the best robotics teams in the world.

Team 2582 believes in and holds to the motto of FIRST, Gracious Professionalism. In other words, bringing your best game but playing that game fairly, learning from and working with your partners as well as your opponents, and above all doing so within the spirit of FIRST.

How to detox your hair this January

How to detox your hair this January

It’s that time of year where everyone’s getting fit, cutting out the chocolate and taking a little more care of themselves. But while you’re adding veggies to the shopping list and dedicating yourself to the gym, have you thought about your hair?

With your self-care motivation levels busting through the roof this January, why not give your hair a detox too with these top tips.

1. Massage your scalp

A scalp massage is a must for anyone detoxing their hair. By using your fingertips (not nails) to rub your scalp rhythmically, you increase blood circulation to the area, which helps carry toxins away and can even stimulate hair growth. Plus, who doesn’t need a massage after a hectic Christmas?

2. Clarify your hair

With all the festive hairstyles in December, product build-up can be a big problem in January. This can weigh your hair down, reduce volume and even dry it out. Revive your hair and remove this product build-up by doing a clarifying wash with a sulfate-containing shampoo, followed by a deep conditioner such as Davines Oi conditioner.

3. Go ‘air-dry’ January

Who said dry January was just about the booze? Heat styling tools such as hair straighteners and hairdryers can dry out your hair, causing frazzled locks and thirsty strands. If you’ve had a heat-heavy Christmas, then consider going ‘air-dry’ this January, by putting away the styling tools and letting your hair dry naturally.

4. Hydrate your locks

You should be hydrating and conditioning your locks all year round, but January is a great month to get into practice. Speak to your hairstylist about the best conditioner for your hair type and then get into the routine of conditioning and deep conditioning as advised.

5. Fix broken bonds

If you had your hair coloured in November or December, then hopefully you’ve been regularly applying your stage three PH bonder. If not, then now’s the perfect time to start. Pop by the salon to pick up Olaplex 3, 4 and 5 to keep your coloured hair as healthy as possible.

6. Oil up

While you might be keeping oily foods out of your diet, your hair can benefit hugely from an oil treatment. With high levels of antioxidants, fatty acids and vitamins, oils such as argan oil, restore shine and life to dull and lifeless hair. We love the Moroccan Oil range for giving your locks an extra special detox treat.

7. Drink more water

Drinking more water is probably on your detox list already, but we want to make extra sure. By ensuring your body is properly hydrated, you can help to boost hair health, growth and shine. Aim for 1.5 litres and make sure you eat lots of fruit and veggies too.

8. Get a trim

Of course, it had to appear in here somewhere. If you’re suffering from unmanageable hair, split ends and dry locks, pop into the salon for a professional detox and hair trim to get your 2020 off to the best start.

And, even better, we’re offering a range of promotions this January on hair treatments, masks and conditioners in our hair salon in Rugby – perfect timing. Look after your hair and your hair will look after you!

About Mack Hair and Beauty

If you’d like help springing life back into your hair this January, book an appointment at our hair salon in Rugby today.

MUC Prayer offering #1

MUC Prayer offering #1

God of Creation

We are so troubled by what has befallen our World.  We have emerged from those terrible fires to find a world petrified by a virus we neither understand nor see a way past.

Yet God of love, we know deep down that you understand our turmoil and feel our pain.  So in our anxiety we turn to you, for we know that you will see us through these troubled times.  It may not be easy, it might not be the way we hope or expect, but we know that you will bring us through.

We pray for this fragile World, for our world’s politicians that they will show the insight and leadership we need at this time of crisis.  We pray for the doctors, nurses and pathologists who lead the fight and for their persistence, expertise and fearlessness and for those scientists searching for a vaccine.  .

Mostly Lord God we pray for those afflicted and those yet to be infected by this terrible virus, particularly those near and dear to us.  We pray also for those impacted most by the economic impact, the unemployed, the homeless, the hungry.

Lord God, be with us all in these troubled times that we fairly share the pain and anxiety of all who suffer..

Trophic level - a marine example

From MarineSpecies Introduced Traits Wiki
(Redirected from Trophic level)
Jump to: navigation, search
Definition of Trophic level:
Throphic levels are the layers that make up food webs, wherein animals are ranked according to how many steps they are above the primary producers at the base of the food web. Microscopic plants at the bottom are assigned a throphic level of 1, while the herbivores and detritivors that feed on the plants and detritus make up trophic level 2. Higher order carnivores such as most marine mammals, are assigned trophic levels ranging from 3 to 5. Animals that feed from more than one trophic level have non-integer trophic levels. Thus knowing what an animal eats is all that is needed to calculate its trophic level.[1]
This is the common definition for Trophic level, other definitions can be discussed in the article
Trophic level.jpg

Trophic levels were initially defined to include only discrete steps (left of diagram). Organic detritus and microscopic plants (phytoplankton) occupy the first trophic level. Tiny zooplankton, which feed on phytoplankton, reside at the second level. Creatures that eat zooplankton sit at the third level, and so forth. But many marine creatures feed from multiple trophic levels and so could not be fit into this classic scheme. Thus the modern approach allows the assignment of trophic level to span a continuum rather than forcing it to take on integral values. Marine biologists would, for example, assign the anchovy (Engraulis encrasicolus) which supplements its main diet of phytoplankton with some zooplankton, to a trophic level of about 2.2; people fishing for anchovies (and eating a diet of only these small fish) would then be assigned a trophic level of 3.2 (right). This definition uses some of the examples associated with the effects of fishing activity on European marine biodiversity

There is a detailed discussion of this subject under the title "Trophic dynamics" in the Wikipedia see

State Restrictions Force Season Cancellation for Marksmen, Several SPHL Teams

FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. – Due to state government restrictions with mass gatherings and the on-going coronavirus pandemic, the Fayetteville Marksmen – along with four other teams – have been forced to forgo the 2020-21 Southern Professional Hockey League season. This decision was finalized and released today by League officials, and unfortunately means there will not be a 2020-21 season of hockey for the Marksmen.

The announcement comes following North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper’s Press Conference last Wednesday announcing the State would move into ‘Phase 3’, excluding gatherings of over 25 people indoors.

President & CEO Chuck Norris gave his reaction following the news.

“We are truly disappointed that hockey will not take place in Fayetteville this season. With our 2019-20 season cut short, we were hungry and ready for hockey to return this season at the Crown Coliseum. Our staff have been working tirelessly to create an all-new experience for our Fans and Partners like never before, and to have that taken from us is disheartening.” said Norris “I want to be clear – the Marksmen are not going anywhere. Amongst the challenges presented this year, starting with the cancellation of the end of the 2019-20 season, the support of our Corporate Partners and Season Ticket Holders allowed for us to continue through the cancellation as we looked to return to the ice for the start of the 2020-21 season. We ask for your continued support once again as we work together as one community to persevere and get back to returning to action. All of our focus now is on preparations for bringing back Marksmen Hockey bigger and better than ever in 2021.”

In lieu of the season’s cancellation, relevant parties have been contacted by the organization in terms of their next steps. Regardless of the disappointing news, the Marksmen are steadfast in our commitment to our role as a community asset, and will use this extended offseason to assure that when Marksmen hockey returns, it’ll be even more exciting than before.

The Marksmen are thankful for the continued support of our proud Corporate and Community Partners, as well as our Season Ticket Holders, and all who have stuck beside us during an uncertain year. Despite the uncertainty of 2020, the Marksmen have eyes set toward 2021 to be the best year yet. We will be back.

The Myth of Having It All

March 31st marked the end of women’s history month, a celebration of women’s contributions to history, culture and society throughout the history of our nation. Trailblazers like Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan who helped redefine the role of a woman in America come to mind. Perhaps one of the most transformative messages born from the women’s movement was the concept that a woman can “have it all.”

I just returned from my last series of speeches to female collegians across the country in honor of Women’s History month on the topic, “The Myth of Having it All.” I am always amazed (and quite concerned) about the stress and anxiety young women subject themselves to by trying to do it all in order to have it all. What I reminded them and what I am inspired to remind you of today is that Feminism is not about having it all or doing it all. Feminism is about the freedom to choose what we want. I think somewhere along the path of the women’s liberation movement, we began to buy into the belief that to be an empowered women means we have to do everything that both men and women do. So instead of making choices, we have tried to fulfill both gender roles at the same time. And from my perspective, it’s not working. Instead of giving us a tremendous amount of freedom and opportunity, this concept of having it all has morphed into something that excuses putting so much on our plates that we are stressed out, burned out and running out of time for ourselves (and our loved ones) every single day.

So today I invite you to UPdate your belief of what having it all means. How can you shift from this externally referenced concept of HAVING it all to a more internally referenced idea of fulfillment by BEING your all? What choices can you make to take some things off your plate so you actually have the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual energy to truly be your all? An empowered woman is not burnt out, stressed out, and freaking out over accomplishing a million things on her to-do list. An empowered woman knows how to conserve her power by not chasing after external validation or obligations.

As the month of celebrating women comes to a close, I feel grateful to be a woman in the world today as it’s an exciting and important time for our gender. As we move away from the pressure cooker of having it all and gracefully slip back into our natural nature of being creative, nurturing, compassionate and receptive, we are beginning to shift the impact that women are making. The past has been about participating more fully and equally in the world. The future will be about changing the world. Hear us roar!

Christine Hassler , best-selling author of 'Twenty-something, Twenty-everything,' supports individuals in discovering the answers to the questions: "Who Am I, What do I want, and How do I get it?" She is a Life Coach with a counseling emphasis specializing in relationships, career, money, personal development and spiritual growth. She will be presenting on 'The Myth of Having it All' at the Forté women's MBA conference on Friday, June 29.

Ready, Set, Glow!

Returning Label Volunteer, Meg Jocson Ong, brings you a piece on how you can keep your skin glowing in these dull winter months.

While the warm weather is gone for now and the rays of the sun will be missed until next summer-time, I am pretty sure most of us want to look and feel as if the sun is still beaming down on our glowing skin! Luckily, you can maintain the same glowing look in this gloomy weather with only 5 steps, using both high-street and drugstore products!

  1. Facial Wash
    Growing up with combination skin, I was always told to use a soap-less face wash such as Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser. Personally, I like to use this when I wake up and just before I sleep. The reason behind this is because if I start on a clean base in the morning for some light make-up, it will keep my skin looking fresh all day. Washing your face at night will mean that you’re taking out all the germs and excess oil collected throughout the day to prevent spots and blackheads.
  2. Moisturizer
    The right moisturizer for a glowing look will be something lightweight which leaves your skin feeling smooth and hydrated. My personal preference is Neutrogena VISIBLY CLEAR® Pink Grapefruit Oil-Free Moisturizer because of its good value for money and light formula. On colder days, I like to use Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream For Sensitive Dry Skin, as my skin tends to dry up on windier days. I believe this is the most important step to having glowing, radiant skin.
  3. Eye Cream
    This is not just a product for aging skin, but also for younger people like us who spend long and sleepless nights in university. Putting on eye cream is one of the essentials in my morning facial routine, as well as my night one. Even when I’m too tired after a long day in lecture halls and school activities, I still remember to do 4 things: take off my makeup, wash my face and apply eye cream and moisturiser. My go-to eye cream is Kiehl’s Creamy Avocado Eye Treatment. I’ve been using this product ever since first year, and it has saved me every morning by helping me look more awake and attentive in lectures.
  4. Highlighter
    Depending on my mood, I don’t really reach out for the highlighter on a daily basis because I always want to have a natural look. However, on some mornings when it seems more necessary, I tend to go for something subtle and dewy looking. Benefit’s Watts Up highlighter stick is my favourite daytime highlighter because it’s so easy to use and gives a subtle yet glowing highlight. I usually dab a minuscule amount on my cheekbones and under my brows to give them a more defined look.  A little goes a long way.
  5. Facial Spray
    Throughout the day, I like to keep up the glowing look for hours if possible. To achieve this, I always have a bottle of facial spray in my bag for a quick top up on the go. Having this will make your skin look and feel more hydrated and glowing throughout the entire day without too much effort. Two facial sprays I would recommend are Mario Badescu Aloe, Cucumber & Green Tea Facial Spray and Evian Spray Natural Mineral Water Facial Spray.

Hopefully following these 5 steps will also help you feel the glow on gloomy days over the next few months of autumn and winter.

Nevermind is a biofeedback-enhanced adventure thriller game that takes you into the darkly surreal world of the subconscious. As you explore the abstract world within the minds of trauma survivors and solve the cryptic puzzles, optional biofeedback technology monitors moment-to-moment indications of anxiety, adjusting the difficulty of the game in real time. Nevermind creates a haunting gameplay experience that also teaches players how to be more aware of internal responses to stressful situations and seeks to engage and educate players about trauma and potentially become a tool that may be used within a therapeutic context.

Nevermind uses consumer off the shelf (COTS) biofeedback sensors as well as standard webcams (on the Windows and Mac versions) to interact with its game engine. The ubiquity of fitness wearables and other non-medical biometric devices allows for this extension into the games space, further expanding the Internet of Things into unexpected areas.

Nevermind began life as a thesis project of a grad school classmate, Erin Reynolds, and I have had some involvement with it even before it became a commercial product. My primary role on Nevermind was VR Lead, adapting an existing game experience from a traditional “flat screen” model into the medium of VR, while still maintaining the look and feel of the original and, most importantly, its signature biofeedback component.

I was also the Creative Producer for Nevermind, wearing many hats as a result (as one does in a small indie studio). As Creative Producer, my responsibilities included casting and directing the voice actors, organizing and implementing localization translations for ten languages (EFIGS, CCJK, Rus., Port.), ratings certifications, web design and maintenance, marketing, community management, working closely with all our employees and subcontractors (programmers, artists, sound designers, audio engineers) and overall game and studio strategy with the CEO.

Apparently the ocean in Pacific Northwest is polluted with caffeine. So now you can just drink seawater instead of starbucks. I can almost visualize all the fish, strung up on coffee, jumping in and out of the water all day long. Their version of bouncing off the wall.

Mama and Papa were old to have chidren, and I had arrived unexpectedly—most things I did seemed to be unexpected.

Sybil Shearer, Autobiography, Volume III
Sybil with parents John Porter Shearer and Constance Klinger Shearer, Nyack, New York, 1919.

Sybil as a young girl, c. 1920

Sybil Shearer was born February 23, 1912, in Toronto, the only child of a successful American businessman and his Canadian-born wife. At age three in Nyack, NY, she loved to dance around the living room while her mother played piano. When her father’s business was moved, the family settled on Long Island. There a crucial event occurred when, at eleven or twelve, her mother took her to see Anna Pavlova dance. “I was simply carried away,” writes Sybil. “We looked at each other. She signed my program. I had fallen in love with her, with the dance, with the theatre.” She saw Pavlova again that season on a visit to Toronto. In 1924 Sybil’s mother took her to England to see her aunt Sybil, who was married to a vicar in London. Sybil knew Pavlova lived there, but did not feel “ready” to see her again.

Sybil taking ballet lessons from Grace Miles, Newark, New York, c. 1928

After returning from England, the family moved to Newark, NY, where Sybil began taking ballet lessons from Grace Miles. We know, from a May 2, 1924 article in The Lyons Republican, that Miles spent winters in Palm Beach, where her students included children of Mrs. Alfred Vanderbilt and of Mrs. Florenz Ziegfeld, the former Billie Burke. Sybil finished high school in Newark, including some time in France in her junior year. By now, she knew she wanted to be an artist – a dancer — but her father did not like the idea and insisted that she attend college. She chose Skidmore College, where she majored in English literature and performed in plays, while dreaming of dancing.

Sybil's father built a studio for her in this barn, in Lyons, New York, 1943

Sybil (center) at Bennington

Perhaps it was destiny that the Bennington Summer School of Dance began its seminal experiment in 1934, the very summer after Sybil’s graduation from Skidmore. The biggest names in modern dance were there: Martha Graham, Doris Humphrey, Charles Weidman, Hanya Holm, Louis Horst, and critic John Martin. Sybil enrolled as a student, and that fall her father agreed to support her for a year in New York. There she lived at the Three Arts Club, studied dance with Doris and Charles, and studied acting with Maria Ouspenskaya. Accepted into the Humphrey-Weidman Company, she returned to Bennington with them in the summers of 1935-1937 — as a dancer and as an instructor. She also toured with their company. In 1938-39 she danced and toured with Agnes de Mille, with whom she had become friends in 1935. And she studied music with Russian composer Yuri Bilstin; became friends with the esoteric composer Dane Rudhyar; and got to know John Martin and his wife better.

By 1936 her parents had moved from Newark to nearby Lyons, NY, where her father built a studio for her in the upper story of their barn. By 1940 she was perfecting her own dances and giving dance-demonstration programs. The culmination of her New York years was her radical solo debut at Carnegie Chamber Music Hall in October 1941, for which she received high accolades.

Best Coast deliver new single 'Different Light'

With their eagerly-awaited new album set to drop later this month, Best Coast have now unveiled the next cut to be lifted from their forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'Different Light' follows on from the previously shared tracks 'Everything Has Changed' and 'For The First Time' in previewing their fourth LP 'Always Tomorrow', which arrives on the 21st February via Concord Records.

Speaking about their latest offering, frontwoman Bethany Cosentino said, "After we finished the album cycle for 'California Nights', something terrifying happened to me. I felt creatively paralyzed. I couldn’t write music. There was so much bubbling inside of me, so many things happening, so much to process, but I couldn’t get any of it out. I was miserable and felt like nothing was ever going to change. One day, I locked myself in my closet and I forced myself to write, and out came 'Everything Has Changed'. The song was like a vision of life I wished I was living; ultimately, that song was prophetic -- describing the life I would soon be living."

Have a listen to 'Different Light' in the player below.
