This painting is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Short Street Gallery that states: ‘This is all the jila in my country including Larrparti, Kawarr, Jurntiwa and Wirrguja jila (living water). This Yulparija country is in the Great Sandy Desert in Western Australia near the Percival Lakes.’

In 2007, Daniel Walbidi accompanied a number of Yulparitja elders, including his father Harry Bullen (Nabiru), on a journey from Bidyadanga back to their traditional lands around Winpa and Kirriwirri in the Great Sandy Desert. The visit was intended to reinvigorate the ancestral connections between the Yulparitja and their country, and was a watershed learning experience for the young Walbidi. It was also the first time he saw his country from the air, an experience that was to have a profound effect on his painting.1 Painted later that same year, All the Jila maps out all the freshwater sites at Karrparti, Kawarr, Jurntiwa and Wirrguja within a tapestry of colour and forms that was to become the hallmark of Walbidi’s painting.

Studying art at school and university, Walbidi was inspired by Aboriginal artists such as Albert Namatjira, Emily Kame Kngwarreye, Clifford Possum Tjapaltjarri, and closer to home, Rover Thomas whose customary lands lie adjacent to those of the Yulparitja. In 2008, Walbidi was selected for the Xstrata Emerging Indigenous Art Award at the Gallery of Modern Art in Brisbane. In 2009, his work was included in Contemporary Aboriginal Painting from Australia, the first exhibition of modern Aboriginal art at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and in 2012, he was selected for unDisclosed, the second National Indigenous Art Triennial at the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra.

1. The Australian Broadcasting Commission (ABC) produced Desert Heart, a documentary film on the journey narrated by Walbidi. It was screened in March 2008.

Catalogue text

The strongest element of Cressida Campbell’s work, and that which has earned her a cult-like following in recent years, is what Christopher Allen called a ‘pervasive sense of delight in the visual world’1, inherent in each exquisitely detailed woodblock and print that comes out of her studio. Spotted Eucalyptus (Orange) is no exception. A special work within Campbell’s oeuvre, it is a product of perhaps the only instance in which the artist returned to the same scene for the creation of three woodblocks and three prints, one with an intricate wooded view (Landscape with Spotted Eucalypts, 2000), one with a rich blue background, and another one in bold orange.

The densely patterned, naturalistic version illustrated in Campbell’s monograph, is a view from the verandah of the Stella James House in Avalon, designed by Walter Burley Griffin, in which she lived over an extended period of time, including the summer of 1999 – 2000. Her time in this heritage-listed residence also led to the creation of the masterful Walter Burley Griffin House, 1999, featuring its unmistakable bank of Art Deco folding windows. This house, hidden within the lush bushlands of Pittwater in Sydney’s Northern Beaches, is bordered by tall gum eucalypts and angophoras which cover the steep slopes surrounding the cottage. With keen attention to detail and composition, Campbell chose the Eucalypts, including one charred branch, as the heroes of the composition, returning to these to create two more woodblocks and prints with a simplified background of solid colour and a slightly wider field of vision.

In a sublimely balanced composition, the spindly branches of several gum trees are intertwined with their sturdy, mottled trunks. While Campbell usually reserved a simple colour field background for close, detailed studies of individual branches and flowers, for example Gum Blossom, 2000 and White Waratah, 2000, Spotted Eucalypts, Orange provided Campbell with greater artistic licence, allowing for large expanses of deep russet and startling accents of blue and canary yellow. The dense layers so common to Campbell’s landscape vistas are exchanged here in favour of rich colour and an almost abstracted composition, delighting not in naturalism but in pure design. This work displays the analogue woodblock techniques that Campbell learnt at the Yoshida Hanga Academy in Tokyo along with a decidedly Japanese aesthetic. The artist’s unusual technique of hand-painting each unique woodblock with watercolour allows for greater chromatic freedom, situating Campbell’s placing halfway between painting and print-making.

The level of detail, respect for decorative design and refinement of colour all endow Campbell’s familiar domestic and landscape views with an intimate originality. A tightly cropped view, Spotted Eucalypts, Orange is a moment of close attention that the artist extends to the viewer – whose breath is restricted for fear of disturbing the peace of this serene, shared moment.

Program services are designed to prevent clients from developing problems that interfere with adjustment and functioning and to intervene early to prevent the long-term effects of exposure to psychological harms. The interventions adopt an ecological perspective that views participants as dynamically interacting between themselves and their environment.

Balancing the Adjustment for Baby and You Home-based therapy for mothers of young children (ages 0-6) Motherhood can be a huge undertaking and the adjustment isn’t always smooth. Many new moms experience the ‘baby blues’ after childbirth, which can include sporadic mood swings and crying spells. Postpartum disorders aren’t character flaws. If you suspect you are experiencing perinatal or postpartum mood disorders, prompt treatment can help you manage your symptoms — and enjoy your baby. DFM Wellness will guide you through the fog. Sessions will focus on alleviating feelings of depression and anxiety, as well as transitioning during adjustments (returning to work, work-life balance).

Responding Early to Affirm our Legacy Workshop series for young ladies and women (ages 12 and beyond) The ability to discover and use the resources within and around you can be challenging. As a collective women, we can aid each other in discovering the steps needed to seize control over their lives and the decisions that are critical to their future. This program will allow women – young and old – to reaffirm their identify and foster a sense of accountability. R.E.A.L TALK is a series of reflective interviews posted at with women detailing their opinions successes, and suggestions to avoid their failures. The program incorporates quarterly workshops where women gather to engage in inter-generational dialogue and resources identification. Here women will align in pursuit of self-discovery, resource assembly, and the creation of supportive networks to empower those who need it most.

But I also know that it can benefit him nutritionally, I just know he's not getting much right now even when he nurses for 20 minutes after he's gotten the last drop. Part of me is ready to be done and part of me wants to hold on to this last little part of his babyhood, since he's ready to PL (so no more diapers) and his independence is growing daily. He's a very cuddly boy, but not while nursing. I also don't want to wait till it will be a major battle either (I don't want to nurse past 2, I'm not comfortable with that at all), we've had enough of those with breaking bad habits formed in crisis. I just don't know, we had such a hard first year with other things, this was the one thing that was consistent and now I'm reluctant to let it go even though I feel like its close to that time. :/

My iDevices are out to get me. Please excuse mistakes.

Ascom announces a strategic distribution partnership with GE Healthcare in Europe for intensive care units

BAAR, Switzerland, Oct. 12, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ascom (SWX:ASCN.SW) and GE Healthcare announce a strategic distribution partnership in Europe of Digistat Patient Watch solution. Designed specifically for Intensive Care Units and released by Ascom, this innovative solution helps healthcare professionals gain instant visibility to patient status.

Based on Ascom’s connectivity, clinical workflow and mobility expertise, the Digistat Patient Watch solution provides clinicians throughout Europe with an innovative solution to address the needs of Intensive Care Units (ICUs). This partnership further expands the existing global relationship between GE and Ascom.

In traditional ICUs, each patient is wired to up to ten medical equipment – from monitoring devices to ventilators or infusion pumps. These high-end technologies provide clinicians with critical information and alert them when staff intervention is required. But this can sometimes lead to alarm fatigue, with care givers being exposed to up to 1,000 alarms per shift1, even though up to 99% of those do not even require clinical intervention2.

The new alarm management solution called Digistat Patient Watch, collects data from a variety of devices connected to the patient providing a holistic view at the patient bedside level and at the ICU level. Clinicians gain visibility on patient status, highlighting alarms and warnings occurring on any connected device. This critical data can also be displayed on a handheld mobile device, such as the Ascom Myco 2 which is designed specifically for clinical staff. The benefits for healthcare professionals may include helping improve staff efficiency, supporting better organization of patient care and implementing procedures to reduce the number of alarms.

“Digistat Patient Watch helps clinicians leverage patient data to increase situational awareness and align priorities. It has the potential to change their practice and improve workflow efficiency,” says André Neu, Head of Platform Solutions for Ascom.

“Digistat Patient Watch is an important addition to GE Healthcare’s portfolio of solutions for the Intensive Care, and we are delighted with this expanded collaboration with Ascom,” adds Olivier Bosc, General Manager of Life Care Solutions Europe at GE Healthcare.

For more information on the Digistat Patient Watch solution, as well as on Ascom’s innovative clinical care solutions, please visit:

Ascom is a global solutions provider focused on healthcare ICT and mobile workflow solutions. The vision of Ascom is to close digital information gaps allowing for the best possible decisions – anytime and anywhere. Ascom’s mission is to provide mission-critical, real-time solutions for highly mobile, ad hoc, and time-sensitive environments. Ascom uses its unique product and solutions portfolio and software architecture capabilities to devise integration and mobilization solutions that provide truly smooth, complete and efficient workflows for healthcare as well as for industry and retail sectors.

Ascom is headquartered in Baar (Switzerland), has subsidiaries in 15 countries and employs around 1,200 people worldwide. Ascom registered shares (ASCN) are listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange in Zurich.

6 Things to Know About FTC Disclosures When Working with Influencers

Written by: Allie Wester
Bookmark and Share
Bookmark and Share

Earlier this summer, the Federal Trade Commission updated their Endorsement Guides FAQ for disclosures in digital advertising. This new document helps provide additional clarity into their 2013 Disclosure Guide, which is a bit ambiguous.

In blogger/influencer brand partnerships, it’s always best to make disclosures clear and conspicuous. If you’re not sure if something is clear and conspicuous, take a step back and look at the content through the eyes of a consumer who doesn’t work in the advertising/marketing industry. Assume this consumer has no idea that bloggers, YouTubers, Instagramers, Viners, etc. get paid by brands to market on their behalf. Is it 100% clear that the content is a partnership with a brand? If not, then you have some editing to do! If it is… good job!

Here are some general guidelines that bloggers/influencers and marketers should follow when working on sponsored content:

1. Make sure to clearly disclose relationships in blog posts.

Again, make sure the disclosure is clear and conspicuous. You can say something like, “This post is sponsored by Brand X,” or “This post is in partnership with Brand X.”

2. Disclose relationships in individual social media posts, too.

Typically, influencers promote brand partnerships on social channels that complement their primary channel (such as their blog or YouTube channel). These complementary social channels include Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, Snapchat, etc. If the brand is mentioned in text (e.g., calling out the brand’s Twitter handle) or image (e.g., the product is visible in the Pinterest image), disclosure needs to be included in that individual piece of social content, too.

Linking to a blog post with disclosure is not sufficient. What if someone never clicks on that link?

3. #sp and #spon are not acceptable disclosures on Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook, etc. Use #ad instead.

Many bloggers use #sp and #spon as disclosure. This is a common mistake. The FTC Endorsement Guide cites #spon as insufficient and not clear. A consumer may not realize that #spon or #sp is shorthand for “sponsored.” I see their point here; even I, a marketer, read #sp and think, “Spelling error!” (Elementary school essay flashbacks…)

The easiest solve is to use #ad. It uses the least amount of characters and is undeniably clear. For a softer approach, you can disclose in context such as, The easiest BBQ brisket, in partnership with @BrandX: [LINK].”

4. Don’t put #ad in the first comment on Instagram.

If multiple people comment, then it will get buried and no one will see it. It needs to be in the description.

5. On YouTube, make sure disclosure is stated verbally both in the video and in the description.

Make sure that the disclosure is featured in the description above the fold, before the “Show More” link. Additionally, disclosure should be stated verbally at the beginning of the video, since YouTube videos are often embedded and a consumer may never see the description. And, as the FTC says, it’s even better to disclose multiple times throughout the video.

6. If you’re working with a blog network, make sure they call out the brand name in the disclosure.

Some blog networks have bloggers disclose with a simple “This post is sponsored by Blog Network X,” without any mention of the brand name. The consumer may think Blog Network X is a neutral third party, so it is not sufficient. The brand name must be mentioned.

Just When You Thought You Knew Everything About Hashtags…

Written by: Rita Mogilanski
Bookmark and Share
Bookmark and Share

You may be surprised to learn that there are very specific and different rules for using hashtags on each social platform. This red, yellow, and green guide will explain how lenient and indulgent one should be when including hashtags in a post.

  • Red = Steer clear of using hashtags
  • Yellow = Use hashtags sparingly
  • Green = Go hashtag crazy.

FB logo Facebook
Red. Stop. Move away from “shift” and “3” keys. Hashtags should not be a priority on Facebook. When applicable, tag a partner page instead of using a hashtag. Hashtags should only be implemented when it complements a call to action as part of a larger, cross-platform campaign.

Twitter logo Twitter
Yellow. Twitter is the birthplace of hashtags and still their most natural home. Tweets with hashtags get two times more engagement than tweets without, and 55% more retweets. However, using MORE than two hashtags in a tweet actually decreases engagement by 17%, so use them wisely.

YouTube logo YouTube
Green. Feel free to go hashtag crazy. Hashtags (in the tagging section) on videos are important for search and discoverability. Use at least 3 tags on videos to increase the likelihood that users will find your content.

GPlus logo Google+
Yellow. Like YouTube, Google+ is a platform that is important for search. Google will automatically tag certain posts with relevant and popular hashtags. Hashtags can also be added to comments on a post. It is often good practice to tag or add search terms used for paid SEO and webpage strategies on Google+ posts as well. Use one or two hashtags that will help users discover content.

Instagram logo Instagram
Green. Instagram is home to #ThrowbackThursday, #TransformationTuesday, and other alliterations that allow users to post baby pictures. #There #seems #to #be #a #hashtag #epidemic #on #Instagram, but believe it or not, these people have the right idea. Hashtags are the primary way to find and browse new content on Instagram, and data has shown that interactions are highest on posts with 11+ hashtags. While over-hashtagging is distracting and considered poor etiquette, do not hesitate to include as many hashtags as are relevant to the post to increase discoverability.

Tumblrlogo Tumblr
Green. Like YouTube, hashtags are hidden on the back-end on Tumblr. This allows users to post more hashtags that cover all the aspects of the content. Use 9-12 terms that are both specific and general to completely represent the post content and the interests of the audience. Just remember that only the hashtags that are entered into the tag section will be clickable and searchable.

Pinterest logo Pinterest
Red. Believe it or not, hashtags may harm the reach of content on Pinterest. Clicking a hashtag will actually take you away from the content on the page, and to a list of all posts using that hashtag. This means that you will end up driving users to a list of other similar brands and competing content. Keywords, without a hashtag attached, are a better way to label content and help users discover it.

Vine logo Vine
Yellow. Like Instagram, hashtags are really the main way to find content, and like Twitter, Vine features trending hashtags and topics. It is best to include any and all relevant hashtags, but over-hashtagging isn’t proper etiquette. #DoItForTheVine

LinkedIn logo LinkedIn
Red. LinkedIn is unique in that the platform does not support hashtags at all. They are not clickable or searchable. A hashtagged word will just show up as normal text, and what good is a pound sign if doesn’t automatically hyperlink? Steer clear.

Prediction: Perceived Personalization

Written by: Eric Fransen
Bookmark and Share
Bookmark and Share

It was sometime between my first battle with an Uruk captain and overthrowing my first war chief that I realized something was special about Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor. While the gameplay itself was fantastic, it was something in particular about the game’s enemies that struck me. Each Uruk had a unique name, appearance, and set of weaknesses, strengths and fears. Each Uruk had its own personality that was only present in my game. If I fell in battle to one, he made sure to let me know the next time I saw him — in alarmingly specific detail.

This is all thanks to Monolith’s Nemesis System. What the Nemesis System has managed to accomplish is something extraordinary — and noticeably lacking in many other of its AAA game brethren: perceived personalization. It wasn’t a matter of going after these Uruks because the game said I had to — I went after them because I wanted to. For sweet, sweet vengeance. It was no longer purely a game mechanic. It was personal. It was as if I KNEW the Uruk and he existed purely to antagonize me and make my life more difficult. All of this made it that much more satisfying by the time I was able to exact my revenge by parting his head with his shoulders.

So what does this all have to do with digital marketing? Everything.

You see, Monolith has stumbled onto something utterly brilliant. Mechanics that go a long way in making you, the consumer, feel like you’re having a completely unique experience. At its core, the Nemesis system is essentially a bank of possible names, attributes, personalities and sound bytes that combine to form randomly created characters. But it’s how it all comes together to form a cohesive experience that’s where it really shines.

You could apply this same logic to attributes in product design, custom web experiences, or experiential events. If you feel like you’re the first and/or only person to experience something, how much better of an experience is that compared to a one-size-fits-all approach? By creating something truly unique, you’re creating social currency and empowering your consumers to speak on your behalf.

But why perceived personalization? Isn’t it just personalization? Yes and no. Yes, the experience is unique and personalized to me, the end user. But where I see the differentiation is the fact that it’s unique without any additional input from either the development side OR the user side. It’s a highly sophisticated automated system that makes me FEEL like it’s built specifically for me. That’s the magic. And something I believe we are going to start seeing even more in 2015.

The Anti-Facebook? Meet Ello

Written by: Tom Edwards

With the recent shift towards a reach and frequency model and organic reach hovering at 3% (with plans to go lower by the end of the year), Facebook has now created a void in the social networking eco-system.

This is what maturing enterprises do. They refine and evolve and sometimes this change has significant ramifications on existing best practices. Facebook is still an incredibly powerful digital platform. I would no longer classify it as a “social network” at least from a brand marketing perspective. Facebook has moved away from KPI’s such as engagement to focus on becoming a highly effective direct response tool.

We are currently at a significant cross-roads from a social marketing perspective. The mantra of reach through engagement is really only applicable on Tumblr & Instagram (for now). Twitter is shifting towards an algorithm driven approach to showcasing tweets in your feed and organic reach has continued to decline and it will be interesting to see how much of the feed is “real-time” moving forward.

With all of this movement away from what made social… social, you should expect to see new platforms emerge that essentially provide what Facebook used to be, an actual social network.

Screenshot 2014-09-25 18.33.14

One such platform that is starting to pick up momentum is Ello.

“Ello is a simple, beautiful, and ad-free social network created by a small group of artists and designers” according to the founders. It is designed to be an ad-free digital zone.

Screenshot 2014-09-25 19.08.45

One of the selling propositions to join yet another network is the fact that they state they won’t sell data to 3rd parties.

Screenshot 2014-09-25 18.33.39

The core of the experience is similar to what you would expect, it supports GIFs, comments on posts and reply directly to friends. You also have insight into how many people have viewed a post but there is nothing revolutionary with the platform, it simply is what Facebook used to be.

This is still in it’s early stages and is very similar to the early stages of the social networks that came before it so there are still some elements that need to be refined but there is a need for platforms such as Ello that provide an alternative to the increasingly ad driven models and allow for more organic connection and discovery of content.

One of the proverbial Holy Grails of social marketing has been to get your brand to trend on Twitter. It signifies scale and social value of your brand, it’s easy to explain, and not everyone can do it. Or can they?

First, let’s begin with some definitions.

What does it mean to trend on Twitter?
It means appearing in the top trends box on Twitter’s home page and mobile app. The trends are tracked and viewable at a global, national and city level.

What are trending topics?
Trending topics represent what people are talking about the most at a given time. But it’s not just a traditional word cloud, tracking individual words — rather, Twitter uses an algorithm to identify the larger conversations related to topics and distill them down to hashtags and keywords. By clicking a trending topic, you can see all related tweets, profiles, and headlines.

How does something become a trending topic?
The most certain way to trend on Twitter is to pay for it using Twitter’s Promoted Trends product. These opportunities are offered once per day at a fixed rate — typically $100,000 – $200,000 for 24 hours. While this is a surefire way to get your brand in front of the massive Twitter audience, what we’re discussing today is how to do it the old fashioned way: organically.

There are a few things to note about organically trending topics.
First, there’s no telling how long or short their time to trend is going to be. I’ve seen trends last less than 20 minutes and up to a majority of the day. It really comes down to the size and nature of the audience that’s engaging — that is, fans of One Direction and Justin Bieber are incredibly passionate and show up in the millions to create organically trending topics quite frequently.

Second, a big part of the algorithm that causes content to trend is based on two things: frequency and volume over time. That is, the more people are tweeting about a given topic in a shorter amount of time, the more likely that content is to trend. This is why you see topics related to live television like sports and The Voice trending — the viewership is so massive and active on social media that, at any given time, thousands upon thousands of conversations are occurring about these cultural events.

So, what does this mean for me and my brand?
When it comes to trending topics, there’s a lot to do with chance — right content, right time — but there’s an equally important part that can be affected with the right strategy to put your best foot forward. Here are a couple thought starters that should get you on your way to your first trending topic.

1) Live Events
What better way to replicate the momentum achieved by a live television or sports event than to create one of your own? I’m not saying you need to produce a television show or host the next Dodger game. Quite the opposite, in fact. You can create an online event targeting a smaller but passionate audience. The most common example of such an event is a Twitter Party — an event hosted by a popular Twitter personality, centered around a hashtag, and designed to get their audience talking about a topic. Another type of live event that I have personally seen success with is a live trivia event. Working with a gaming client, we devised a program that offered up high value prizes to the first Twitter follower to answer each of a series of increasingly difficult trivia questions using a designated hashtag. We hosted a similar event for four weeks and organically trended three of the four times.

2) Mass Appeal
Don’t have the means to make an event of your own? You can try appealing to the masses with something that holds a universal truth or can be entertaining to everyone. A program I created for the same gaming client was designed to tap into the passion around nostalgia for a particular franchise and the result was the topic trended within the first 10 minutes of publishing the original tweet. It comes down to understanding your audience and their motivations. What are they passionate about at scale?

Google’s Updated Search Algorithm Puts Greater Onus on Social Content Marketing

What’s changed?
Google recently announced significant changes to their legacy algorithms — Hummingbird, Panda, and Penguin, which impact 90% of the world’s searches — that took the war against spam links and black hat SEO to new heights. At its core, the change is putting a much greater emphasis on content relevance and quality by stripping out bad searches (keyword stuffing, duplicate content, and hyperlink manipulation) and clearing the lane for the good stuff.

So what does this mean for digital marketers and brands?
The bottom line is this: great, relevant content will prevail over all else. No longer will marketers and SEOs be able to stack the deck to artificially inflate the presence of bad and/or irrelevant content. If the ever-increasing demand for original, quality content wasn’t already apparent — this is your wake up call.

The good news in all of this is, if you’re already creating engaging, high quality content for your marketing campaigns, this is some of the best news you’ll hear all year. With the clutter out of the way, your content stands that much greater of a chance of being discovered by your intended audience.

As a brand or agency, there has never been a more important time to focus on the creation of original content in real time. By reacting to global events and trends quickly in an authentic manner, you’ll not only ensure your content is original and fresh, but you’ll be poising your content (and brand) for discovery. And the changes to Google’s algorithm have cleared the lane of clutter to make a clearer path to the top of the search engine results pages.

Instagram recently announced they are taking major steps to enable brands by providing greater insight into the performance of both organic and paid content. These tools are a welcome addition to the highly visual platform and will create tighter alignment with business goals as it pertains to tracking impressions, reach and engagement.

Screen Shot 2013-10-03 at 4.35.56 PM

The tools are built around three primary areas of account insights, ad insights and ad staging.

Account Insights – Account insights is the primary dashboard for mapping performance and engagement of organic content. This includes insights around the weekly performance of content, aggregate impressions over time as well as additional insight into the brands audience.

Here is a screenshot from the Instagram Blog highlighting account insights

Instagram Business Tools

Ad Insights – Ad Insights is the campaign performance hub for Instagram paid media that houses brand analytics (impressions, reach and frequency). Instagram, similar to parent company Facebook, are heavily focused on reach and frequency vs. engagement as a primary value proposition for brands. The Ad Insights dashboard is a quick and easy reference against the current campaign goals and all of the data can easily be exported for additional client reporting.

Q3 brand campaign

Ad Staging – One of the more exciting tools, especially for Social Agencies that partner with Media agencies on behalf of their brands, is the Ad Staging option. This tool will allow cross functional teams to collaborate together to preview, save, and collaborate on ad creative.

These tools will be made available to all Instagram advertisers and will enable tighter campaign integration as well as invaluable data around how the brands target is engaging and interacting with both organic and paid content. Building recommendations on a strong data foundation is a key to maximizing the impact of a visual content strategy.

The Last Reef
The Last Reef 2012

Fly across iridescent tropical reefs, brush through a cloud of a million jellyfish, visit an alien world where the closer you look, the more you see, where the tiniest creatures support the greatest predators... We think of reefs as exotic, distant places with little or no connection to our everyday world. Yet every reef is a living city beneath the sea with a parallel existence to ours, distant yet undeniably connected. Reefs are hotspots of biodiversity as vital to life on earth as the rain-forests. They have been shaping our shorelines, literally forming islands and mountains, for millions of years. The fossil record shows that given time they have recovered from all of earth's major extinction events. Even reefs pulverised by atomic blasts at Bikini Atoll have regenerated. Yet within our lifetime reefs have come to face their greatest threat...

South Pacific Fragile Paradise
South Pacific Fragile Paradise 2009

The extraordinary wildlife, culture and history of this immense, fascinating ocean and its myriad islands are revealed in stunning detail. With its coral reefs, turquoise lagoons and dramatic oceanic atolls, the South Pacific is the archetypal paradise. It is still relatively healthy and teeming with fish, but it is a fragile paradise. International fishing fleets are taking a serious toll on the sharks, albatross and tuna, and there are other insidious threats to these bountiful seas. We look at what is being done to preserve the ocean and its wildlife.

Living Together
Living Together 2006

The documentary deals with the future of conservation. It begins by looking at previous efforts. The 'Save The Whales' campaign, which started in the 1960s, is seen to have had a limited effect, as whaling continues and fish stocks also decline. In the 1990s, as head of the Kenya Wildlife Service, Richard Leakey took on the poachers by employing armed units. Although it was successful in saving elephants, the policy was detrimental to the Maasai people, who were forced from their land. The need for "fortress" areas is questioned, and the recently highlighted Raja Ampat coral reef in Indonesia is an example. The more tourism it generates, the greater the potential for damage — and inevitable coastal construction. Sustainable development is viewed as controversial, and one contributor perceives it to currently be a "contradiction in terms". Trophy hunting is also contentious. Those that support it argue that it generates wealth for local economies, while its opponents point to the reducing numbers of species such as the markhor. Ecotourism is shown to be beneficial, as it is in the interests of its providers to protect their environments. However, in some areas, such as the Borneo rainforests, the great diversity of species is being replaced by monocultures. The role of both religion and the media in conservation is argued to be extremely important. Contributors to the programme admit a degree of worry about the future, but also optimism.

The Private Life of Plants Living Together
The Private Life of Plants Living Together 1995

The fifth programme explores the alliances formed between the animal and plant worlds. Attenborough dives into Australia's Great Barrier Reef and contrasts the nocturnal feeding of coral, on microscopic creatures, with its daytime diet of algae. Some acacias are protected by ants, which will defend their refuge from any predator. Besides accommodation, the guards are rewarded with nectar and, from certain species, protein for their larvae as well. Fungi feed on plants but can also provide essential nutriment to saplings (Mycorrhiza). The connection is never broken throughout a tree's life and a quarter of the sugars and starches produced in its leaves is channelled back to its fungal partners. Meanwhile, fungi that feed on dead wood leave a hollow trunk, which also benefits the tree. Orchids enjoy a similar affiliation. Lichens are the product of a relationship between fungi and a photosynthetic associate, usually algae. They are extremely slow-growing, and a graveyard is the perfect location to discover their exact longevity. Mistletoe is a hemiparasite that obtains its moisture from a host tree, while using own leaves to manufacture food. Its seeds are deposited on another by the mistletoe tyrannulet, following digestion of the fruit. The dodder (Cuscuta) is also parasitic, generally favouring nettles, and siphons its nourishment through periodic 'plugs' along its stem. The rafflesia has no stem or leaves and only emerges from its host in order to bloom — and it produces the largest single flower: one metre across.

Welcome to the Blue, Chin-Hui Tsao!

This is a rather incredible feat.  A ballplayer who last played in the Majors some eight years ago will now step into the Dodger clubhouse.  It has just been announced, although anticipated all day, that right-handed relief pitcher Chin-Hui Tsao will join the club today.  Additionally, Josh Ravin also joins him.  Ian Thomas and Yimi Garcia have been sent to AAA.

Via a Dodger press release:
Tsao will be making his first appearance in the big leagues since 2007 and has gone 2-1 with five saves and a 3.86 ERA in 21 games this year with Oklahoma City. In 50 MLB games (eight starts) with the Rockies (2003-05) and Dodgers (2007), Tsao went 4-4 with four saves with a 5.40 ERA.
As you will recall, the Dodgers took a gamble on Tsao by inviting him to Spring Training this year - even while knowing about his involvement in a game fixing scheme in Taiwan in 2009 and a reported banning from the Chinese Professional Baseball League.  Still, he was said to be able to throw in the mid-90's, and that was probably good enough to give him a look.  Word is the commissioner gave the Dodgers the go ahead to sign him.

Fortunately, the Dodgers bet appears to be paying off.  He was fantastic during the Spring, and earned a spot within the Dodgers system.  Yasmani Grandal said this about him in March, via Ken Gurnick at
"First time I ever saw him," said catcher Yasmani Grandal. "He gives me a lot of options. He has a back-door breaking ball. And I didn't know he threw that hard."
In 25 appearances in Oklahoma City and Tulsa he struck out 39 batters in 30.2 innings of work.  He had also walked only five batters total.  If he maintains these kind of numbers while in Los Angeles he just might become a fixture on the club.

In celebration of Tsao's arrival to the Dodgers I made the above fantasy card for him.  I used a photo taken by Jon SooHoo during Spring Training and the 1972 Topps Baseball card design.

Below are his career stats, via Baseball-Reference:

 dachshund rescue help please?

dachshund rescue help please?

there’s a malnourished pair of doxies hanging around that i need help for. unfortunately, they rent my landlords house at the other end of the street. they are severely malnourished, covered in fleas/ticks. if i were to take them it wouldn’t take long for the "owners" to figure out where they are. and there’s no Animal Control here. when i’ve complained to the PD about mistreatment and abuse, their response has been, "a dog is a mans property to do what he wants with".
i need to know if there’s any dachshund rescues in the mid-TN area that could take these dogs RIGHT AWAY.
they hang out on the side of the highway.
i’m not set up for little dogs. i have NO kennel space anywhere.
and for those of you that know about the coon hound Molly, i found out she came from the same home!
i’ve tried to enlist the aid of nearby shelters and the TN Humane Society in the past and got ZERO help. just a form letter saying, "thank you for your concern".
so does anyone know where i can find some RELIABLE help for these 2 little dogs?
thanks Nekai. the link won’t follow through (it brings me to the home page, then i get ERROR), but i left a message on the phone and i’ll e mail the other.

    I don’t know how much this will help,but there are three dachshund rescues in Alabama. Here is a list of all of the dachshund rescues,nationwide.In the meantime,is there anyone at all who would be willing to take the little dogs and keep them until you could get a rescue to take them? Of course it would need to be in another town so the owners wouldn’t find the dogs,but if they let the dogs run loose,they might think that they just up and "disappeared." Good luck.

  2. texelgirl2 says:

    sounds like you live in a unintrested state. That there is NO help for you in this situation is very sad. You CAN contact HSUS (Humane Society of United States) http://www.hsus.org/
    now you dont have to believe in them or like what they stand for but they can and usually will put you into contact with someone that will investigate and do more to help with the dogs. They may be able to contact investigators from outside your county to come and help you. Though keep in mind little will be done to prosecute. Since it sounds like the PD still think of animals as property in your state and county. The most that can be done is to convince them to take better care, or have them sign there ownership over to the authorities. It sounds like your going the legal route which is better. The other thing is if you can get a friend, not of that county, to pick the dogs up from the highway since they are not on the property of the owners, and then have them take the dogs to a shelter a couple of counties away and tell them they are strays from the side of hwy so and so. Dont give much details about it. Then be sure that shelter helps them out, once they hold the dogs for the right amount of time, you can maybe help them get to a Dachshund rescue. That way they are not in the area and are at least having minimal care, vet care, and food. Its not the most honest way but sometimes you got to do what you got to do.

    Take a look at this sight for Tennessee there are ALOT of numbers, there might be a ton of calling to do, but SOMEONE here has to know where to get help and someone should be able to help you out with suggestions and contacts.

    OH crap Nekai gave you this sight already… anyway Thats IS the best bet if you can get to that sight.

    A star for you, sweetie.

    Have you searched this site? http://www.pgaa.com/Tennessee.html

    I’ll add as I go, I’ve got about 10 more minutes here so I’ll see what I can do!

    Keep in mind some rescues are not listed, but are forwarded to through word-of-mouth. Looks like a non breed specific rescue might be the way to go for starters.

Serevent Inhaler

Serevent Inhaler

Serevent is a long acting beta 2 adrenergic receptor agonist drug used in the maintenance and prevention of asthma. It is also prescribed for maintenance of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms. The symptoms include shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing and chest tightness. It is available as a dry powder inhaler that releases powdered form of the drug.

Quantity Strength Price Unit Price Cart
1 Mcg Serevent Inhaler Salmeterol 25 mcg/dose 120 Metered Doses $22.00 $22.00
3 Mcg Serevent Inhaler Salmeterol 25 mcg/dose 120 Metered Doses $62.00 $20.67
30 Capsule Serevent (Salmeterol 50 Mcg Rotacaps) $18.00 $0.60
90 Capsule Serevent (Salmeterol 50 Mcg Rotacaps) $50.00 $0.56

Serevent inhaler includes active ingredient Salmeterol which is responsible for prevention of asthma. Salmeterol lipophilic side chain binds to beta 2 receptor in the lungs and on the bronchiolar smooth muscles, allowing the active portion of the molecule to remain at the receptor site. When the beta 2 receptor of lungs gets stimulated it causes relaxation of bronchial smooth muscles, bronchodilation and increased bronchial airflow.

How to use Serevent Inhaler

Serevent evohaler is a normal inhaler.  It is sometimes called an MDI (metered dose inhaler) or aerosol inhaler that delivers the medicine as a fine spray or mist. With this inhaler one can press down the canister and breathe in the spray.

How to use Serevent Inhaler

  1. Shake the Serevent inhaler three to four times before use

  2. Next remove the cap

  3. Breathe out, away from your inhaler. Bring the inhaler to your mouth. Place it in your mouth between your teeth and close your mouth around it.

  4. Start to breathe in slowly. Press the top of your inhaler once and keep breathing in slowly until you have taken a full breath.

  5. Once you are done remove the inhaler from your mouth, and hold your breath for about 10 seconds, then breathe out.

 In patients suffering from asthma

The usual dosage for patients who are more than twelve years of age and older than that should take two inhalation daily. The dose should be one in the morning and one in the evening, approximately twelve hours apart.

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary disease

In case of Bronchospasm associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) the dose is two times a day, approximately twelve hours apart.

In case of exercise induced Bronchospasm two inhalations 30 to 60 minutes before exercise is advised. Additional dose is not allowed at least twelve hours after the administration of the dose.

Side effects

There are different needed effects shown by Salmeterol but there are some unwanted effects which are also reported. They could be categorized as common side effects and less common side effects.

The common side effects include cough producing mucus, headache, irritation of the throat, sneezing, stuffy nose, tightness in the chest and wheezing.

The less common side effectsincludes blurred vision, chills, cold cough, diarrhea, dizziness, dry mouth, fever, increased hunger, joint pain, loss of appetite, sweating, swelling, troubled breathing, vomiting and white patches in the mouth & tongue.

Before you start using the inhaler there are certain precaution which is required.

  • Tell your doctor if you are allergic to the medication.

  • Tell your doctor if you are using any other long-acting beta agonists (LABAs). These medications are not supposed to be used with Serevent.

  • The doctor should be informed if there are other prescription and nonprescription medication which you have plans to take or you are taking it presently.

  • In case of irregular heartbeat, high blood pressure, hyperthyroidism, diabetes or liver disease discuss with your doctor before you start using inhaler.

The use of Serevent is contraindicated in the following conditions. In case of Primary treatment of status asthmaticus or any acute episodes of asthma, where intensive measures are required Serevent is contraindicated.  If the patient is having severe hypersensitivity to milk proteins he should avoid the medication totally.

Missed dose

In case you forget the dose the next dose should be taken as per the stipulated interval timing. Do not take a double dose. If you become wheezy or feel tight in the chest before the next dose is due, use a 'reliever puffer' in the usual way.

In case of overdose or if you have taken more puffs by mistake, your heart may beat faster than usual. The other symptoms includes headache, muscle weakness, aching of joints and shakiness.

The medication should be stored in a closely tightly container. It should be kept away from heat and moisture. The medication should be kept away from children and pets.

Jherrad jerks off

Jherrad jerks off at Fierce Dog

Something tells me this wasn’t Jherrad first time in front of a camera. Could it be the hot strip tease he unleashes, feeling up his body as clothes drop off one at a time. Leading to a free-balling hard cock begging for attention?

This slut goes to work on that cock, working up such a sweat on his tight bod he didn’t need any lube to open up his ass cheeks and play with that sweet hole. And no show is complete without streams of cum flying through the air at the end.

Check out the full length movie at Fierce Dog.

Trevor at Southern Strokes

Southern Strokes No Comments »

Southern Strokes

I found Trevor hanging out at the Mall in Cobb County.  He was dressed a little rough but he had this look about him that I just knew he had a wild side.  Trevor is a life guard at the local pool and tells story after story about having to hide his hard cock while he is working.  He just loves talking about sex and especially about his many conquests.

As soon as he arrived at the house for the shoot, he immediately got naked.  Before I could say anything, he said “don’t worry it gets big”.  It looked plenty big to me but man was he right.  Next thing I knew, he is standing there with almost 8 inches rock hard and perfectly straight.

See the full length movie at Southern Strokes.

Max Damon’s jerk off movie

Max Damon

Max Damon strokes his cock

Home made gay porn

Max is bare-ass naked when the video starts and it looks good on him! Turns out this cute-as-fuck small town dude is a practicing nudist so who are we to argue?

After some quick fiddling with the camera, Max flops back on the couch and makes himself comfortable. Everthing is on display at this point and his body is tight and athletic but with a natural physique that begs to be licked!

Perfect creamy white skin covers his muscular frame and the whole package is topped off with his killer cute smile and piercing blue eyes. Before you know it his cock is rock hard and reaching for the sky.

He stares quietly at himself as he gently strokes his 6.5 inch rod and rolls his unusually large testicles back and forth in his palm. There’s something quirky and adorable about his innocent good looks that’s fueled by the devilish grin the peels across his face. Oh ya, he’s a dirty one.

Joey fucks Rylan

“I’m taking it today,” Rylan said as we were driving toward my place in the car. “I’m not used to that so yeah…”

Of course, the conversation immediately turned to dick size and Rylan was really curious about how long Joey is.

“I don’t that’s going to be the biggest issue here,” Joey said, smiling and chewing gum. “Because I’m really wide.”

“Oh, shit,” Rylan said, laughing. Of course what Joey failed to mention was his massive butt muscles and legs that were going to be thrusting that thickness up into Rylan’s asshole!

em’s first birthday invites

I’m so excited to finally share with you the invitations we designed, letterpress printed + mailed out for our daughter’s first birthday party! After a bit of brainstorming, Kacey and I decided to make Em’s party a celebration of her firsts. The first time she giggled. Her first word. The first time she sat up. First time she crawled. Her first food. First steps.

I wanted her invitation to be interesting plus a little keepsake for each recipient. So, I designed multiple parts. The largest card is a certificate. The smaller pink card is her party invitation. We included a picture of the birthday girl, put it inside a glassine envelope and bound all the parts together with pretty metallic + cotton twine.

Below is a closeup of the certificate. This was a three color print job. A dark pink, a light pink and gold for the text. It was stamped, well letterpress printed really, with “First Year Certified.” Lots of her milestones and the dates for each were listed.

em's first birthday invites

I turned Em’s first foot + hand prints into graphics so that we could letterpress print them in a pale pink ink on each card. Fun fact? They are printed in the actual size of her first foot + hand prints.

Each envelope was adorned with pretty pink and cream vintage stamps + an envelope wrap. Since we only needed to print a small number of invitations, we letterpress printed each envelope wrap with our return address plus the address of the recipient.

A closeup of the parts all grouped together inside the envelope.

Em's First Birthday Invite

I love how her invitations turned out. They’re exactly as I pictured them in my head. And, I love the idea of the certificate so much that I’m going to be designing + letterpress printing similar first year certificates to sell in our little shop soon!

Gender Quotes
This section contains Gender Quotes

I do not wish them to have power over men, but over themselves. (Quote by - Mary Wollstonecraft)

That one can love another of the same gender, that is what the homophobe really cannot stand. (Quote by - Stephen Fry)

I do think the attempt to raise consciousness has succeeded. People are very aware of gender concerns now. (Quote by - Clifford Geertz)

Our only hope for the redemption of woman from the thralldom of dress lies in the belief that her hitherto limited sphere of activities has been so insufficient for her intellectual occupations that she has been forced to expend her thoughts in decorating her person, instead of enlarging her mind. (Quote by - Mercy B. Jackson)

I've left Bethlehem, and I feel free. I've left the girl I was supposed to be, and some day I'll be born. (Quote by - Paula Cole)

I wish someone would have told me that, just because I'm a girl, I don't have to get married. (Quote by - Marlo Thomas)

I don't think gender is aesthetically defining for me. (Quote by - Suzanne Vega)

The people I'm getting furious with are the women's liberationists. They keep getting on their soapboxes proclaiming that women are brighter than men. That's true, but it should be kept quiet or it ruins the whole racket. (Quote by - Anita Loos)

Men are taught to apologize for their weaknesses, women for their strengths. (Quote by - Lois Wyse)

When I put the shot, it's feminine, because I'm female. Athletic motion doesn't have a gender. (Quote by - Maren Seidler)

The little rift between the sexes is astonishingly widened by simply teaching one set of catchwords to the girls and another to the boys. (Quote by - Robert Louis Stevenson)

I think we're struggling with trying to redefine various positions at this point in history. To allow freedom for women, freedom for men, freedom from those sharply defined gender roles. (Quote by - Fred Ward)

I refuse to believe that trading recipes is silly. Tunafish casserole is at least as real as corporate stock. (Quote by - Barbara Grizzuti Harrison)

There is more difference within the sexes than between them. (Quote by - Ivy Compton-Burnett)

We must focus on people as people, regardless of race, creed, color or gender. (Quote by - Judge Mills Lane)

To tell a woman everything she may not do is to tell her what she can do. (Quote by - Spanish Proverb)

The power I exert on the court depends on the power of my arguments, not on my gender. (Quote by - Sandra Day O'Connor)

There is no gender identity behind the expressions of gender... identity is performatively constituted by the very 'expressions' that are said to be its results. (Quote by - Judith Butler)

We have a history of gender and racial bias on our court that continues to undermine the system. Excluding individuals based on race is antagonistic to the pursuit of justice. (Quote by - Anita Hill)

Men define intelligence, men define usefulness, men tell us what is beautiful, men even tell us what is womanly. (Quote by - Sally Kempton)

I want to state upfront, unequivocally and without doubt: I do not believe that any racial, ethnic or gender group has an advantage in sound judging. I do believe that every person has an equal opportunity to be a good and wise judge, regardless of their background or life experiences. (Quote by - Sonia Sotomayor)

When two people marry they become in the eyes of the law one person, and that one person is the husband. (Quote by - Shana Alexander)

With the adoption of the Declaration on the Elimination of Violence against Women, the international community sent out a clear message that gender based violence will not be tolerated. (Quote by - Jenny Shipley)

You don't have to signal a social conscience by looking like a frump. Lace knickers won't hasten the holocaust, you can ban the bomb in a feather boa just as well as without, and a mild interest in the length of hemlines doesn't necessarily disqualify you from reading Das Kapital and agreeing with every word. (Quote by - Elizabeth Bibesco)

Most men are very attached to the idea of being male, and usually experience a lot of fear and insecurity around the idea of being a man. Most women are very identified with their gender, and also experience a tremendous amount of fear and insecurity. (Quote by - Andrew Cohen)
