  • Introduction

    Certain metals—known as native metals—can be found naturally in their pure form, but most metals are normally contained in rock as ore. Native metals are very malleable and can be worked by striking them with a hard object. This technique, called hammering or beating, is the oldest form of metalworking. The extraction of metal from its ore is a more complex procedure; first, the correct minerals must be identified and mined, often from below the ground. The ore is then purified using fire, often using crucibles and furnaces, allowing the metal to be smelted and separated from the rest of the rock. The use of smelted metal allowed items to be made using moulds, hammers, chisels, and files. This set of techniques and knowledge is known as metallurgy.

    In addition to copper, iron, gold, and silver, human groups have made use of other metals such as lead, tin, and platinum to produce artifacts with different characteristics—color, finish, strength, and flexibility. The alloys most used in ancient times were based on copper, which was transformed into bronze through the addition of tin or arsenic. The result was a stronger, lighter-colored metal with a lower melting point and unique resonant properties, allowing it to be used for making such items as highly sonorous bells. Other important alloys include electrum, a mix of gold and silver that was used in Ancient Greece, and tumbaga, an alloy of gold and copper that was widely used in the northern Andean region in pre-Colombian times.

    The earliest objects made from native copper were produced in the Middle East (Iran and Anatolia) around 9000 years ago. Metallurgy was developed approximately 6000 years ago in the area of Mesopotamia and the Balkans, and from there this technology spread rapidly throughout the Old World, with copper being the most widely used metal. The use of alloys increased around the year 3000 BCE, giving rise to the Bronze Age in Europe and Asia. Around the year 1000 BCE, iron replaced copper as the most common material used to make agricultural tools such as ploughs and weapons of war.

    Metallurgy was discovered independently in the Americas, where the earliest finds of hammered gold and copper sheets date back to around 1500 BCE in the Central Andes (Andahuaylas and Cupisnique), while the first evidence of smelting appears around 1000 BCE in the mountains of Peru. To the South, around Lake Titicaca, the earliest evidence of smelting dates back around 3000 years and consists of slag, the waste rock that is separated from the molten metal. The metallurgy of the Central and Southern Andes (Peru, Bolivia, Northern Chile, and Argentina) was based mainly on copper and its alloys, which were used to make implements and tools (such as knives, axes, chisels, tweezers) as well as ceremonial items and personal adornments (including ear ornaments, rings, masks, and small bells). However, some objects were also made from silver and gold.

    In northwestern South America, in the region between present day Ecuador and Costa Rica, a separate metallurgical tradition developed, the earliest evidence of which is found in copper artifacts dating back to around 500 BCE. By 400 CE this metalworking craft had become very sophisticated, with the use of tumbaga (a copper-gold alloy) and the manufacture of complex pieces using a casting technique known as the lost wax method. Around 1200 CE these groups began to work with platinum, a metal that is far stronger and more heat-resistant.

    Metallurgy in Meso-America was a different story. The earliest evidence is found in western Mexico around the year 600 CE, influenced by the technology of northern South America, as there seems to have contact among cultures and even trade between the two regions along the Pacific coast. It is noteworthy that the people of the Mayan civilization, which built the great city of Teotihuacán, had no knowledge about the use of metals until this spread into the rest of the region around the year 1200 CE.

    Metals were considered sacred materials by many cultures of the Americas, being associated with the gods owing to their remarkable luster and color. In both Meso-America and the Andean Region gold, yellow and untarnished by time, was identified with the Sun and other male deities, and was also linked to fertility and agriculture. Conversely, silver–pale in color and subject to corrosion–was identified with the Moon, with water and tides, and with goddesses, and thus also linked to fertility.

  • Smelting and casting

    Metals must be exposed to intense heat to smelt them out from the ores that contain them. Each metal has its own melting point, which can often be lowered by adding other minerals or fluxes. Different metals can be combined during smelting, producing alloys.

    Metallurgy furnaces can be simple constructions, as long as they can reach the high temperatures required. A stone structure over a fire can work as a furnace, as long as adequate fuel is provided and the air can circulate to feed the flames. The most commonly used furnaces in the Andes were the huayras or huayrachinas, both used in pre-Columbian times and during the Colonial Period. These were cylindrical stone or ceramic structures with holes around the outside that were placed over fires. Air could be blown through the structure to increase the temperature of the fire, often by locating the furnace on a hillside or in other locations where strong winds would circulate the air naturally. Alternately, air could be blown into the furnace using wooden or ceramic tubes known as toberas. The most commonly used fuels were wood and guano. Image 1

    Once the molten metal was obtained, it was removed from the furnace and cast into a shape suitable for its intended use. Pure metal could be saved in the form of drops or ingots, which could be melted again later, or it could be poured into molds to achieve basic forms that could later be reworked into more complex forms for ornaments or tools. Molds were made from carved rock or ceramic, covered with a layer of lime to prevent the piece from sticking. Some were simple, single-sided molds, while others were made with multiple pieces that fit together to create more elaborate shapes. Molds were usually preheated before the molten metal was poured to reduce the temperature difference and prevent them from breaking. Image 2

    Items such as hooks, knives, and axes were usually worked from a basic shape–either a simple rectangle or a shape similar to that of the finished article–that was then crafted with intense hammering to flatten and stretch out the metal and produce fine cutting edges. Cold hammering could be used to achieve the desired shape, but this technique weakened the metal, making it necessary to reheat the piece after working to enable it to regain its strength.

    Compound molds, made from a number of parts that fit together, have the inverse of the desired shape. These molds have an opening or funnel through which the molten metal is poured into the internal cavity and that also acts as a reservoir that provides extra metal for solidification. As metals contract slightly as they cool, the solidified metal takes up a somewhat smaller space than the liquid metal. The process of pouring the metal into the mold must be undertaken with great care, as the liquid metal is still fairly thick, and a number of air bubbles are normally formed when it enters the mold. To prevent this and ensure that the cavity is completely filled, small holes or auxiliary drainage tubes are installed in different parts of the mold to ensure that the metal fills the entire space and expels all trapped air.

    Once the metal has cooled and completely solidified, the mold is disassembled and the cast metal piece is removed. Freshly cast pieces often seem porous and have excess material along the lines where the parts of the mold were joined. These must be cut or filed off to achieve the finished piece, either manually using soft stones or with the aid of acids to produce a smooth, shiny finish

  • Lost wax method

    The lost wax method is a metallurgy technique used in many places around the world that allows metals to be cast into complex, ornate shapes. It was used in both Mesopotamia and northern South America to enable the production of elaborate and fine pieces from molten metal. In the Northern Andean region (from Ecuador to Costa Rica) evidence of the lost wax method exists as early as 400 BCE, including unused initial shapes made from the wax of bees that inhabited the region’s tropical rainforest. In contrast, in the Central Andes (Peru and Bolivia) the same technique used resins from plants such as the retamo (Bulnesia retama). In Meso-America the lost wax technique appears along with the earliest use of metals, having been transferred from northern South America, and both beeswax and copal resin were used to create the base figure from which the mold was made.

    According to the Franciscan scholar Bernardino de Sahagún, who observed the indigenous way of life and technologies in Mexico during the sixteenth century, the lost wax casting method involved a complex sequence of steps. The central core of the piece was first made from a mix of clay and charcoal, and this was then covered with an outer layer of beeswax and copal, which was modeled into the shape desired for the finished piece; this in turn was covered with a thin layer of charcoal and then wrapped in clay to form the mold, leaving a hole through which the metal would be poured. On exposure to the heat the wax would melt and drain off, while the clay would be baked hard. The resulting mold consisted of an inner cavity surrounded by clay, with a clay and charcoal core in the center. This mold was filled with molten metal and then cooled; the outer mold could then be broken away, and the porous inner core dug out, leaving a hollow finished piece.

    One of the key features of the lost wax process is that the outer mold is a single piece that cannot be disassembled, so the only way to remove the metal piece from inside it is to smash the mold. As the molds could not be replicated and were used only once, each metal piece made using the lost wax method is unique.

  • Gold and silver plating

    During the pre-Columbian period in the Americas, jewelry and ceremonial objects made from metal were relatively scarce, and were used as symbols of prestige by officials and priests. Objects made from gold, silver, and copper were not necessarily seen as symbols of wealth but did signify power, as their color, luster, and sound were considered divine.

    A variety of techniques were used to change the color of metals: alloys of different metals were produced (adding tin makes copper more yellow, for instance), and surface treatments applied to make the exterior color different from the interior.

    Deposition gilding and silvering were undertaken in the Northern and Central Andean regions using an elaborate technique that left a thin layer of gold or silver on the surface of a copper or bronze piece. The first step was to dissolve particles of the noble metal in an aqueous solution also containing acidic mineral compounds; the liquid was then neutralized by adding lime and the piece was submerged in the resulting solution, where some of the precious metal was deposited on its surface. This technique is also known as electrolytic replacement gilding. The result is a thin, fragile layer of gold or silver that is heated to bond it to the surface of the metal and then polished to enhance the luster of the finished piece.

    An alternative technique, used in the Southern Andes, was depletion gilding or silvering. In this method, the piece is made from an alloy that contains a proportion of gold or silver. By hammering the surface in the presence of air, partial oxidation occurs: the less noble metal is weakened by the air and removed by hammering, sometimes also with the use of corrosive substances, leaving only the noble metal exposed on the surface. Pre-Columbian master craftsmen were experts in this technique, achieving truly golden or silver surfaces from pieces containing only small percentages of the noble metal in the bulk alloy.

    While the color and appearance of the metal were important for ceremonial and ritual purposes, the internal composition of the piece was also relevant, though not always plainly visible. Some artifacts from the Andean region contain up to 30% gold or silver alloyed in their interior, even though the piece appears to be pure copper; the luster and color of the gold or silver cannot be seen without a special surface treatment to make them show through. This could mean that the ancient Andean peoples considered both the internal composition and external appearance of these metals to be sacred qualities.

The Preemie Growth Project

Sharing Vital Information About Nutritional Issues for Premature Babies & Special Needs Children

In the NICU

Bad News: Currently there are no hospitals allowing early supplementation of liquid trace minerals in their Neo-Natal Intensive Care Units (NICU).  (If this changes, this page will be updated appropriately.)

Yes, physicians are aware premature and low birth weight babies suffer from trace mineral deficiency (it is in the textbooks after all), but Neonatologists are by nature Very Cautious when it comes to protecting the health of the children in their care, and this intervention has NOT YET gone through appropriate rigorous testing.  Unfortunately, that may NEVER happen for a variety of reasons (detailed below).

Your physician in the NICU will tell you they are aware of the deficiency issues, and they will be addressing it with TPN.  TPN is “total parenteral nutrition” – you can read more about it here: Total parenteral nutrition – infants (NIH)

Bluntly, TPN is *NOT* adequate – despite the intent to act as a complete dietary supplement, several key nutrients are absent, such as sulfur, cobalt and iron. You can point that out, and you are still going to be told “no” – politely, firmly, but still “NO.”  After all, just because you read on the internet that THIS COULD HELP YOUR CHILD doesn’t make it true.

It isn’t just about “not getting sued” – it is about being CAREFUL, and RESPONSIBLE.  Research is important, and twenty years from now, this may be “standard of care” but for now…

Right now, as the parent, you have to trust that the people in the NICU really, truly care about you and your child’s welfare.  They do.  They are *devoted* to children to the point where they have dedicated their lives to helping them.  They get up all hours of the day and night, give up time with their families, and will do anything they can to help your child, including protecting them from possible danger with non-verified products and protocols.

You are going to be asked to sign a document saying you won’t put anything in any formula or breast milk you bring into the NICU for your child.  While this may seem a little extreme, they are trying to make sure that scam artists aren’t selling desperate parents miracle cures made of chopped worms and spit.  (Trying to make a point here – not saying that anyone would ever actually do that, but these days, who knows?)

There is a chance (somewhere between “slim and none”) that you might have a neonatologist who is willing to step out and try this.  If that miracle happens (most likely because the situation is already so unbelievably dire as to be near hopeless), several things will have to happen:

  1. You will have to sign paperwork promising to release everyone and their brothers from any potential liability concerns if they do this. Think that through – ALL LIABILITY. FOR ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING.
  2. Your neonatologist will have to jump through unbelievable hoops through the hospitals “IRB” (Institutional Review Board) which monitors “human experimentation” to make sure this choice is ethical and moral. This will involve professional reputations and hospital politics.
  3. The manufacturer of any product you use will have to provide laboratory assays and toxicology reports for scrutiny, and if anything jumps out, the whole thing may be stopped without question.

Bonus: There are no established “safe levels” for any of the “trace” minerals for this vulnerable population. Healthy adults are assumed to get adequate amounts from a normal food supply – but you are in the NICU, and your baby isn’t eating steak yet, so you are in a bit of a predicament.

If you or your medical support staff decides to make this happen, you then have to get an unopened bottle to the NICU (unopened to minimize chance of contamination).

The only brand there is actual *data* on (with reports from 2011 instantly available) is the “PDCM 72+” brand.  With that brand, your child would use 10% of one daily feed once daily.

Example: 15ml of breast milk or formula = dosage of 1.5ml of PDCM once daily

You can also pray. Praying is good.

  1. Trace mineral and vitamin supplement products are NOT regulated by the FDA, and while reputable companies follow standard industry practices, no one is making sure that is actually happening.  This makes people in the medical community nervous.  They like pharmacists. (Let’s be honest – everyone likes pharmacists!)
  2. There is no formal published research on this topic, and that isn’t going to change anytime soon.  Yes, a feasibility study has been done with amazing results, but someone with credentials after their name is going to have to repeat things before anyone believes it because this is paradigm changing stuff, and since the first two babies reported their “amazing results” in 2007, not one reputable researcher has stepped up to make that happen.
  3. Do you have any idea how much paperwork is involved in this type of research?  And how much it is going to cost?  Research is COMPLICATED.
  4. No one is going to get rich if it works.  The financial cost for this intervention is about $25 for a three month supply of the supplement for a premature baby, and there are already half a dozen companies out there that sell variants of it.
  5. No one wants to get sued. If it doesn’t work and your child DIES, you might sue them.  Who wants to run that type of risk?

The truth is, your neonatologist is by nature exceedingly conservative because THEY CARE.  As a parent, you really have no choice but to trust the “MD” (sometimes translated as “Minor Deity”) knows what they are doing.  They won’t give up on your child, but they don’t want someone making things worse, and until they know this won’t, they aren’t going to trust it.

Tippet Group, Keith - Dedicated To You, But You Weren't Listening

Year of Release: 2003
Label: Akarma Records
Catalog Number: AK227
Format: LP
Total Time: 40:50:00

The Keith Tippett Group was a jazz-rock-fusion super group consisting of Tippett (a young 22 years) on piano with such standouts as Robert Wyatt (drums), Elton Dean (alto saxophone), Nick Evan (trombone) and Phil Howard (drums), including a full orchestra and a host of other excellent musicians.

The album Dedicated To You, But You Weren't Listening (1971, Vertigo, 4449), in my humble opinion, was a breakthrough recording for the rock and jazz worlds. Released on Vertigo Records in 1971 and now available on 180-gram virgin vinyl in 2003 on Akarma Records, it includes the original colorful and thought provoking artwork in an LP format with traditional gatefold sleeves. The cover is classic album art with an exclusivity only found in the dominion of Roger Dean. It comes as no surprise that the great artist (made famous by all of the Yes covers) designed it.

Some of this music is "out there" so to speak; well, not by today's standards by any stretch of the imagination, however it still sounds fresh and innovative today. At times, the strong persuasions of avant-garde and free form such as on ?Gridal Suite? reign supreme, then other moments are more contemporary like the bopping danceable closing tune ?Black Horse.? Those two compositions in particular are worlds apart yet they clearly defined each style and genre.

This one is dedicated to all the jazz lovers out there with an open mind. If you did not hear it the first time, listen this time.

Side One: This Is What Happen (5:01) / Thoughts To Geoff (10:18) / Green And Orange Night (8:11)

Side Two: Gridal Suite (6:12) / Five After Dawn (5:18) / Dedicated To You, But You Weren't Listening (0:36) / Black Horse (5:54)

Robert Wyatt - drums
Marc Charig - cornet
Elton Dean - alto, saxophone

How Flood Zones And Evacutaion Zones Differ.

Flood zones, evacuation zones, and storm surge are different. They measure different conditions that may not occur at the same time, are determined by different methods, and have different purposes. A home may be located in a non-evacuation zone, yet still be located in a flood zone because of a nearby stream or pond. Residents are advised to check all of them to learn what your flood risk is.

Image result for flood zone sign
(photo credit: Structural Solutions of NJ)

Flood zones are areas mapped by FEMA for use in the National Flood Insurance Program. Each flood zone designation, represented by a letter or letters, tells homeowners what the risk is for flooding at their property over a period of years, regardless of the cause. High risk areas, referred to as Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) are shown on the map as zones labeled with the letters A or V. By law, all homes in high-risk zones carrying a mortgage must be covered by flood insurance.

Visit the Pinellas County Flood Map Service Center to find out what your risk is.

Evacuation zones are based on hurricane storm surge zones determined by the National Hurricane Center using ground elevation and the area’s vulnerability to storm surge from a hurricane. The evacuation zones are marked from A through E, plus non-evacuation zones. Visit the Know your Zone Evacuation Level Lookup to find out what zone you are in.

 Storm Surge flooding occurs when an abnormal rise of water generated by a storm is pushed toward the shore by strong winds. If you are susceptible to storm surge, flood insurance is recommended, even if you are not located in a FEMA flood zone.

Current Water Levels in a nearby waterbody can help you predict when flooding might occur during a rain or tropical event.

Understand flood insurance

Much of Pinellas County is prone to flooding, so you should get flood insurance for your home, business, or rental. Regular homeowner’s or tenant’s insurance do not cover losses due to flooding. Flood insurance covers you for damage to your home, business and contents due to surface accumulation of water from inland or tidal flooding and erosion due to flooding. Don’t assume that you’re safe from flooding just because you live on an upper level in a condo building. If a severe flood wipes out the ground floor of your building, all of the other units in the building (including your own) may become uninhabitable as well.

If you are looking at buying a property, it is a good idea to check out the possible flood hazards before you buy. Most homeowners insurances do not cover flood damage. Talk to your insurance provider about your policy and consider if you need additional coverage.

12 Common Immune Enhancing Herbs & Foods

By |2018-05-25T10:20:30+00:00August 17th, 2014|Categories: Blogs|Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , |Comments Off on 12 Common Immune Enhancing Herbs & Foods

April Crowell, Dipl. ABT (NCCAOM), AOBTA CI & CP, CHN

As requested–a blog about a few common herbs that have antiviral, antibacterial and immune enhancing natures. Just in time before schools and the cold and flu seasons start.

A virus, cold or flu in the eyes of Chinese medicine is an exterior invasion. Something is attacking the body from outside. Like all exterior invasions, to treat it we need to identify the nature of the disharmony using the 6 Exterior Evils (Pathogens) wind, cold, heat, dampness, dry, and summer heat.  When it comes to colds and flu wind, cold, heat and dampness are the most common culprits. Read more about exterior and interior patterns here.

Having formulas like Ge Gen Wan and Gan Mao Ling and single herbs like propolis, goldenseal and echinaccea are on hand is a good idea.  No one wants to run to the store or herbalist when you are sick. However, none of these herbs are delightful to nosh and it  isn’t appropriate to ingest them frequently.

Before we get ill, we have an opportunity–the chance to implement preventative habits and build our immunity by regularly ingesting foods and herbs in their simplest form.   These foods fall into the “release the exterior” and bitter  and pungent (spicy)-and they are abundant.  Actually, I had a bit of challenge to choose just twelve.   Including some of these foods and herbs regularly in your diet can make a world of difference the next time Violet Virus comes to play.   Personally, I crack out the formulas or propolis when a vicious battle looms and I get in for Amma or acupuncture quick…I don’t like being sick…..

Cinnamon–Sweet, hot and pungent, astringent and drying. Cinnamon stimulates, restores […]

Phanteks Announces Revolt X and Revolt Pro, Dual System or Dual PSU

Posted January 12, 2018 by Josh Jackson in Cases & PSU

The hardware industry revolves around upgrading systems through replacement. Out with old and in with the new works for some, but many of us have budgets that limit what we can replace. Modular upgrades is the ticket and Phanteks has a great option coming that will do just that in the PSU world.

The Revolt Pro allows you to add a PSU to an existing one, but first let’s look at the Revolt X. I’ll admit, I can’t think of a ton of situations where having one PSU to individually power two systems would be useful. It could save money to have one strong unit, but simultaneously hooking up two systems to one PSU is more suited to reviewers. The Revolt Pro definitely peaks my interest, but I think it needs a bit of a tweak. It’s great to be able to combine two units to work for one system. Not only can it save a reasonable amount of wear with load balancing, but it leaves a buyer open to easily upgrade their power down the road when it’s needed. Right now it has an 850w and 1000w option, but the wattage seems a bit high, even for many enthusiasts. A 500w and 650w would be great options for first builds, giving the buyer a chance to upgrade to a wattage that’s not quite as over the top.

Everything being said, the 850W Revolt pro is marked at $130. If you told me I could have a 1700W PSU for $260, I’d definitely be interested. Seriously! You can go to Newegg and check the 1500W+ PSUs to see that this ends up being a fantastic deal. On top of that, you can do it in two easy payments and only when your system gets to the point it needs an upgrade. I’ll stop with the infomercial, but you can see the rest of the details below.

Video: Stig Blomqvist driving an Audi Sport Quattro in the 2010 Live Action Arena

. Tuesday, January 19, 2010

Long before Top Gear had "The Stig," Audi had a Stig of their own - Stig Blomqvist. In this video, Blomqvist (63) shows the crowd at last weekend's Autosport International Live Action Arena in Birmingham UK, that he still has some killer moves behind the wheel of this legendary Group B Audi S1 Sport Quattro.

In addition to numerous wins with Audi over the course of five seasons, Blomqvist was the 1984 World Rally Champion, racking up five wins that season behind the wheel of an Audi (A1) Quattro.

Check out Stig's Wikipedia page for the full run down of his amazing career.

    I'm a size that's really hard to find, let alone in a cute-looking bra. I'm a 32DD and found that this one's cup size was too small. I didn't want to send it back because it looked nice, but I was coming out of the top a little after I moved around in it for a few minutes. I ended up with a Natori bra in 32DD that fit perfectly in the same order...kept that one.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, basil, and red pepper flakes. Add the cheese and toss to coat. Cover and set aside in the refrigerator for 1 hour.

Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain, transfer to a large bowl, and set aside to cool.

Fiore is a shape of pasta that looks like a flower (fiore is Italian for flower). If you cant find it, substitute wagon wheels, penne, fusilli, or another favorite shape.

By CE D. from Hemet, California

I love the marinated mozzarella balls from the store, but the kids thought they were a funny texture. So I learned to marinate the string cheese because it is kid friendly and easily recognized to them. They LOVE this salad!

EL TOPO: Soundtrack Album

The Soundtrack Album to the Legendary Cult Classic, First Released on Apple Records in 1971

First-Ever Stand-Alone CD Reissue

First-Ever Legitimate LP Reissue

The Original Gatefold Album Cover Faithfully Reproduced, Along with Four-Page Booklet Featuring Bizarre Images from the Film

CD Booklet Includes New Liner Notes

Mastered by Joe Yannece at Classic Sound

LP Pressed on 180-Gram Vinyl

Lacquer Cutting by Carl Rowatti at TruTone Mastering

Produced for Release by ABKCO’s In-House Engineer Teri Landi and Mick Gochanour

EL TOPO: Soundtrack Album (LP & CD Release)

Championed by everybody from John Lennon to Peter Gabriel to Marilyn Manson—and decried by “Establishment” critics ranging from Vincent Canby to Gene Siskel —El Topo remains one of the most controversial movies ever made. Director Alejandro Jodorowsky’s bizarre, blood-soaked blend of spaghetti Western, druggy surrealism, Christian allegory, Zen Buddhist themes and avant-garde sensibilities gave rise to the entire “Midnight Movie” counterculture phenomenon of the early ‘70s and forever changed the way adventurous audiences viewed film. Or, for that matter, heard film; for no soundtrack, before or since, has embraced so many styles in its pursuit of spiritual and artistic goals. Atonal, Tibetan Buddhist thighbone trumpets clash with beautiful, even sentimental, chamber orchestra pieces alongside pan flute rhapsodies, brass bands and parlor jazz; that Jodorowsky himself composed the score—after, no doubt, intently studying the work of Morricone—is almost as impressive an artistic achievement as the film itself.

Now, Real Gone Music, in partnership with ABKCO Music & Records, is issuing this one-of-a-kind soundtrack album on LP and as a stand-alone compact disc for the first time since the original release produced by Allan Steckler for Apple Records back in 1971. What’s more, the four-page booklet boasting some of the film’s hallucinogenic imagery that came with the original release will be included in the gatefold LP reissue and incorporated inside the CD booklet, which will also include new liner notes. Mastered by Joe Yannece at Classic Sound in New York, and produced for reissue by ABKCO’s in-house Engineer Teri Landi and Mick Gochanour, with tape transfers by Landi, lacquer cutting by Carl Rowatti at TruTone Mastering and a 180-gram vinyl pressing, Real Gone/ABKCO’s release of El Topo on CD and LP fully captures Jodorowsky’s singular sonic vision.

Marie created a recognizable logo that was an instant hit and a boost to catwalk fundraising. She expanded on her initial creation and produced a series of print and electronic pieces that focused attention on our goal and produced dramatic results. We exceeded our million dollar goal on time thanks in large part to the positive image that Marie built for us.

Pat McGinnis
City Manager, Grand Haven

I have had the opportunity to work with Marie Kar over the last few years. As a graphic designer and business woman, she has been wonderful. Her ability to understand my needs and put them in action has been outstanding. I have a product call “Benson’s Bottom Paint” which we have been trying to market since 1988. It has gone up and done in sales due to a number of reasons. Since I started working with Marie, to come up with a new look and consistent message to try and market my product, she has used her resources to bring in other people who have worked as a team to help me achieve my goals. My new label design for the product is fresh and eye catching. My sales, even though they are small have been increasing. Marie has been a true professional to work with on this project. I’ve appreciated Marie’s fresh ideas with the design on the “Benson’s Bottom Paint” paint can project. Truly unique.

Randy Dahlquist R.Ph.
Benson’s Bottom Paint, Inc.

Marie (Redframe Creative) is the epitome of a user friendly and professional company. Marie answers emails and phone calls almost before the request is made. Marie works to the satisfaction of the client. She isn’t happy unless the client is happy. Prices are reasonable and the product is usually beyond expectations. If you contract with Marie you will not be disappointed. She is friendly, competent, thorough, timely, and puts the client first. I would not hesitate to give her the highest praise and to recommend her to anyone seeking the highest quality.

Richard L. Baldwin
Buttonwood Press

When we decided to build a new building we started thinking about branding and re-imaging the company. One of the first things we knew we needed was a logo so
We turned to Redframe Creative. Marie made it easy by asking the right questions about our vision and she came back with our vision as well as concepts that were variations of it. She made it fast and affordable. Thanks Redframe!

James J. Willison Sr.
Tri City Auto Repair

Marie is a rare and oh-so-talented blend of advanced technological and graphics skill, creative artistry, and “old school” values, commitment and self discipline. I will never use another graphics design professional for my books besides her, and trust her implicitly. She sets the bar high for her work and follows through with amazing reliability.

Garrett L. Turke, Ph.D.

I am very happy with the work Marie has done for my business. She is very easy to communicate with and is very talented at her work! I would highly recommend Red Frame Creative!

Carrie Anne Engels
What a Gem Jewelry

Working with Marie and Redframe Creative was lots of fun—pure pleasure; in fact, in some ways I hate to see it end. I think that’s because the process was a true collaboration, which is what made this experience so enjoyable. Marie provided a creative design framework that allowed each of us to bring our own sensibilities to the project. The finished product reflects that synergy—not only of the four of us, but of the four thought leaders and the eight practitioners. You can sense everyone’s part in the booklets!

Daryl Fischer

We so appreciated your ability to grasp the meaning behind the content and really bring it to life through the combination of design, our images, and stock photos. This was particularly impressive since you were hitting it “cold.” In addition, we very much appreciated your responsiveness to multiple reviewers and comments, your own lively intelligence brought to review of the two booklets and your focus on getting it right! It was a pleasure to work with you.

Randy Roberts and Rachel Tooker,
Crocker Art Museum, Sacramento, CA

The movie is great, but the book is better

April 29, 2003 16:52 IST
 Holes is a very popular book with six graders -- middle school students in America who are in the 11 to 12 year age group. Kids all over America have been reading it, maybe because the new Harry Potter book did not come out last year.

 This week, Louis Sacher's thrilling book, winner of the Newbery award, is number one on The New York Times bestseller list for children's paperback books. It has been on the list for 99 weeks. Now, Walt Disney has made a live action film based on Sacher's novel.A still from Holes

 Holes is directed by Andrew Davis, who has made other action adventure movies like Under Siege and Collateral Damage. He also directed The Fugitive, which won Tommy Lee Jones an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor.

 Holes has a big star cast, including Sigourney Weaver, Jon Voight, Patricia Arquette and Shia LaBeouf -- star of the Disney Channel show Even Stevens. Well-known LA Lakers player Rick Fox makes a guest appearance in the film.

 Holes has a very interesting story. Stanley Yelnats is an average sixth grader living in Austin, Texas. He runs into a lot of bad luck because of his 'no-good, dirty-rotten, pig-stealing grandfather.' One day, a pair of shoes falls from the sky and he catches them. Stanley starts to run as the cops chase him. He gets caught and is sent to a reform camp called Camp Green Lake.

 The camp is located in a desert, where the kids have to dig a hole a day. It is supposed to make them better human beings. At the camp, Stanley becomes close to a bunch of other kids. They all have nicknames like X-ray, Zigzag, Squid, Armpit, Zero, Magnet, Mr Sir (Voight), the warden (Weaver)

and Dr Pedansk.

 Stanley is nicknamed Caveman. He becomes close to Zero when he learns Zero cannot read or write. Stanley teaches him, but the camp's councillors think Zero is stupid. A frustrated Zero runs away.

 Stanley goes into the desert looking for him. The adventure continues, with the boys surviving on water and onions. There are other details about digging more holes, a box of jewellery, poisonous yellow spotted desert lizards and the history of Kissing Kate Barlow (Arquette) -- a nice school teacher who became a bandit.

 The story also has flashbacks of Stanley's ancestors in Europe and the curse on the family by Madame Zeroni, an old black woman. Madame Zeroni is played by Eartha Kitt, who is the voice of Cat Woman in New York City's cabs, reminding passengers to wear their seat belts.

 But, as is expected from Disney films and books for sixth graders, Holes has a happy ending. Zero, who was homeless at the beginning of the film, finds his missing mother. Stanley and his family become rich and the curse on them is lifted.

 The movie has some great acting, with funny performances by the teenage kids. The older stars, Jon Voight and Sigourney Weaver, are also fun to watch, especially when they are defeated by the kids. Hero has beautiful cinematography, especially the shots of miles and miles of holes in a hot desert.

 It is faithful to the original story, but I'd still recommend the book because nothing can take away the magic of reading. Maybe, it's a good idea to read the book first to see how fantastic Louis Sacher's story is.

For supply of vegetables the government has opened shops retailing vegetables at cheaper rates.

Several NGOs and volunteers of various organisations have also taken relief efforts as the focus is now more on spread of epidemic.

Corporation of Chennai and other civic bodies have deployed scores of workers to clear debris from the affected areas. The state government has brought in workers from other districts for this purpose.
