M97, The Owl Nebula
Click image for full size version
June 8, 2015
I never understood this object's monicker, The Owl Nebula, until I researched to prepare this post. The name stuck after the 3rd Earle of Rosse, William Parsons, sketched it in 1848 with an appearance resembling an owl's head. The nebula formed about 8000 years ago from the gas thrown off by the evolving central star. That star has now reached the white dwarf stage, and is currently much brighter and hotter than the Sun. Its energy is causing the nebula's hydrogen, oxygen and other gases to glow.
M97 contains a little more than 1/10th the Sun's mass, but is spread out so thinly that there are fewer than 100 particles per cubic centimetre. It is currently a little less than a light year wide, and is expanding at a rate of 27-39 km per second. It will eventually become so diffuse that its feeble glow will no longer be visible.
If you look to the left of the nebula in the 10 o'clock position, you will see a small reflection nebula to the left of a prominent star. At a similar distance from the nebula in the 3 o'clock position is an edge on spiral galaxy that looks like a small streak. There are many more galaxies throughout this field. All of them are millions of light years in the distance, while the Owl Nebula is a cosmic stone's throw away at just 2,600 light years.
SBIG STL-11000M camera, Baader Ha and RGB filters, 10″ f/6.8 ASA astrograph, Paramount MX. Guided with STL-11000's external guider and 80 mm f/6 Stellar-Vue refractor. Acquistion, guiding and calibration done using Maxim-DL. Focusing with FocusMax. Automation with CCDCommander. Registration, integration and all processing in PixInsight. Shot from my SkyShed in Guelph, Ontario. moderate moonlight for RGB, full moon for Ha.
10x10m R, G and B, and 4x20m Ha unbinned frames (total=6hr20m).
Synthetic Luminance:
Creation and cleanup: The Ha, R,G and B masters were cropped and combined using the ImageIntegration tool (average, additive with scaling, noise evaluation, iterative K-sigma / biweight midvariance, no pixel rejection). DBE was applied to neutralize the background.
Deconvolution: A star mask was made to use as a local deringing support. A copy of the image was stretched to use as a range mask. Deconvolution was applied (100 iterations, regularized Richardson-Lucy, external PSF made using DynamicPSF tool with about 20 stars).
Stretching: HistogramTransformation was applied to make a pleasing yet bright image.
Creation and cleanup: The cropped R, G and B were combined to make an RGB image which was processed with DBE, BackgroundNeutralization and ColourCalibration. The cropped Ha image was also processed with DBE and the NB-RGB Combine script was applied to blend the Ha into the RGB. The RGB and NB-RGB images were combined 95:05.
Stretching: HistogramTransformation was applied to make a pleasing yet bright image.
Additional steps: TGVDenoise was applied to the CIE-L only. ChannelMatch was used to fix slight misalignment of red channel (about 0.15 px). Colour saturation was boosted on stars and nebula.
Combining SynthL with RGB:
The luminance channel of the RGB was extracted, processed and then added back into the RGB image as follows:
1. Extract luminance from the RGB image.
2. Apply LinearFit using the SynthL channel as a reference.
3. Use ChannelCombination in Lab mode to replace the RGB's luminance with the fitted luminance from step 2.
4. LRGBCombine was then used to make a SynthLRGB image.
Final Processing
Final Steps: Background colour saturation was reduced slightly. A blurred range mask was made and used to increase colour saturation and contrast in the nebula. A copy of the image was processed to enhance the nebula only, boosting red, brightness and contrast. The duplicate was blended back into the original using a mask to protect the background and stars.
Image scale is about 1.1 arcsec per pixel for this camera / telescope combination.

Attending a pro-wrestling event is a thrilling experience filled with great performers and a lot of action. When attending a pro-wrestling event, you may expect the violence to stay inside of the ring. When you are injured as a member of the audience, you may have a personal injury case on your hands. There are many factors that go into this case and sorting through them with a personal injury attorney is the best way to break down these cases and build evidence.
Rowdy Fans
Pro-wrestling crowds are filled with passionate fans that love to cheer on their favorite performers. Sometimes this passion can get taken too ar. Fans may throw objects or even attempt to perform some of the moves themselves. If you are a victim of a violent act like this, then a lawyer can seek a settlement from the person that caused the injury. Alcohol may also play a part in these actions and a lawyer could hold a venue liable for serving too many drinks to an inebriated person. Witness statements and venue footage may be used to help prove this evidence.
Pro-wrestlers are often displayed as larger than life athletes. To help that persona come across, pyrotechnics are often used for introductions. The smoke or heat from pyrotechnics could be the result of your injury. When fireworks are used in an indoor venue, it can be hard to control smoke and proper ventilation. You may suffer from a breathing attack or get burned by pyro that goes off too closely to your face. An attorney can help showcase the dangers of these pyrotechnics and the direct cause of your injury. In a case like this, both the venue and wrestling company may be held liable for the injuries.
Wrestler Interference
Wrestling often feels real as they attempt to get close with fans and get crowds involved. Wrestlers may enter through the audience or matches may leave the ring and spill over into spectator areas. This type of fan interaction could lead to possible injuries. For example, a wrestler may throw a chair at another wrestler. If the chair misses and hits you, it could result in a serious injury. A lawyer can use video footage and images to showcase how the injury occurred and the negligence from the performers involved. This can help you reach a settlement to receive compensation for any related injuries
Extended Financial Impacts
If you are injured at a wrestling event, there may be extended financial impacts that the guilty party is liable for. For example, you may have flown to the city to watch the wrestling show. As you went to a hospital for treatment, your flight back home could have been missed. Through a settlement case, you can receive compensation for the missed flight, wasted hotel rooms, rental cars, or extended factors like missing work. An attorney can help calculate all of these costs.
Shortly after the injury, you should contact a personal injury lawyer. This will allow them to build evidence and gather any video footage from the wrestling event.Share

Hi, my name is Sally. I was living a pretty average, uneventful life until I had an accident. At that point, my life become more stressful and painful than I could have ever imagined. Sadly, my accident happened on private property, and it could have been prevented if the owner of the property had kept up with his shoveling. For months, I missed work, suffered through constant pain and become more and more depressed. Finally, a friend referred me to an accident and injury lawyer, and she showed me how to get the compensation that I deserved. I don't want to see anyone else suffer like I did, and because of that, I decided to create this blog. Here, I hope anyone who has been injured can find the information they need to get fully compensated and regain their lives. Enjoy your reading and thanks for stopping by!

Sue Crockford is a London-based feminist. Here's a brief interview with her in which she reflects on how she got involved in the Women's Liberation movement (via involvement in anti-Vietnam War activity), what her memories of that time she cherishes, and what feminism means to her. Below, another feminist, Sarah Irving, writes about her reactions to the interview and what we can learn.
Sarah Irving: There are lots of reasons why I think that younger feminists ought to listen to women like Sue Crockford, with her decades of involvement in the movement. Some of them a serious reasons, like tactics and strategies and not reinventing the wheel. At forty (or very close to), I've realised in recent years that I'm already old enough to have seen several cycles of activism go round – similar issues and dynamics recurring, people getting enthused and burnt out in depressingly similar and repetitive ways.
Of course, we all need to learn from our own mistakes, and that's as true of younger activists in their political lives as of anything else. But do we need to keep making the same mistakes, over and over? There's a difference, I think, that can be drawn between the kinds of personal, emotional screw-ups that everyone probably needs to go through to understand how to function sustainably as an activist in the world, and the movement-level mistakes that can be learnt about, if only we can put aside our pride, and our prejudices against older people, for long enough to do so.
As well as all that serious, important movement-building stuff, I also think that this interview with Sue should be watched by younger activists far and wide because it's a great reminder that being involved in politics doesn't all have to be deadly serious. As well as being a long-term, committed feminist and struggler for social justice in other forms, Sue is also a beautiful, flirtatious, sexy, fun, funny person, and that very much comes through in this video. She's a glorious reminder of the fact that activism is part of life, and that while a lot of life might seem pretty grey and depressing, it should also be shot through with colours and glitter. If we don't allow for that in our activism, we risk both our own health and sustainability, and being so bloody miserable-looking to other people that we put them off getting involved too.
Watching this video, I get the overwhelming sense that although Sue Crockford might have been hard-working, high-expectations kind of comrade in the 70s and 80s, she'd also have been a hell of a lot of fun to work with. And that's a great set of lessons to learn, for all activists.

What has SJVCEO been up to?
We are happy to say that SJVCEO is back to providing updates monthly. We appreciate the interest in keeping up with the organizational happenings and want to keep you in the loop.
In January the VIEW Partnership celebrated partner and partnership achievements with over 60 attendees at the Vintage Press for the VIEW the Success! Luncheon. This annual celebration serves as a time for networking for partners as well as to highlight the tremendous energy achievements. This year we were able to hand out two SCE Energy Leader Awards. The City of Visalia was awarded platinum and the City of Porterville was awarded gold. Community outreach efforts from elected officials were acknowledged and both the County of Tulare and Kings Supervisors were awarded certificates of appreciation. All our partners continue to strive to reach the top tier within the VIEW partnership. Many partners will be working toward a complete streetlights conversion to LED lights. We can't wait to share the finished project pictures with all of our followers.
HDR Partners were also honored and awarded SCE energy leader partner awards in early February. We were happy to honor both the City of Victorville as well as the Town of Apple Valley with gold awards. In total the partnership has achieved over 198,491 kWh in energy savings over the last two years. For 2018 the partnership will be working towards having all electric service accounts benchmarked as well as working towards completing energy action plans. Both activities will help to identify highest users as well as create project pipelines. We look forward to what this year holds!
METU is still making progress as the 2018 program year gets underway. The program completed a custom insulation project in the City of Avenal during the month of December 2017. All work has been completed and wrapped up. METU continues to monitor usage on benchmarked accounts to verify the calculated energy savings. METU will deliver reports on this to Avenal in the coming months.
The City of Madera completed recent lighting audits with METU and PG&E. PG&E is making the final touches on the lighting audit report and METU is busy seeking other opportunities for the city.
The City of Arvin has not lost a step since their recent personnel changes. They are moving full speed ahead on additional lighting projects including exploring LED upgrades to their remaining city-owned street lights.
Benchmarking and Municipal Readiness Reports detailing project pipelines have been completed and delivered to the City of Selma. Stay tuned for updates on projects occurring in the very near future with Selma! Stay tuned!

Accounting or financial management is the most daunting task that an entrepreneur has to undertake. As a small business owner, it is important that you know how your business is doing financially and how much taxes you have to pay. Here are some best accounting practices that every entrepreneur should adopt to ensure that your business is doing well.
- Familiarize yourself with your financial statements like balance sheet, profit and loss and cash flow statement.
The balance sheet indicates your total assets, liabilities and capital at a particular time. The Profit and Loss or Income Statement shows the revenues generated and expenses incurred during a particular time. Cash flow statement, on the other hand, shows the details of the cash flow, whether inward or outward, as a result of your business' investment and financing activities
- Prepare a business budget/plan.
A budget plan will help you project the amount of expenses and revenues for your business.
- Decide the accounting method you will use – Cash Basis Method or Accrual Method.
Cash basis is when you record revenue when cash is received. Expenses are recorded when bills are paid. In the accrual method, revenues and invoices do not have to be paid before recording them in your books.
- Separate business and personal expenses.
Avoid the habit of listing all personal expenses as business expenses. You will not be able to see how your business is performing and you will not be able to attract investors to your business.
- Automate payments and invoicing.
Take advantage of technology and enroll recurring bills on e-payments and regular customers in e-invoicing. This will ensure that you pay your bills on time and that all revenues are accounted for.
- Identify and strictly implement internal controls
These internal controls, like processes that protect revenues from wastage, errors and fraud and meeting financial obligations, will help you meet your financial goals.
- Plan your purchases.
Buy only the things that you need and make sure that your business will benefit from them
- Make it a habit to close your books at the end of every month.
This will enable you to see how your business is doing and decide on what else needs to be done to control expenses and increase revenues.
- Reconcile your bank account regularly.
Make sure that the money in your bank account matches the revenues listed in your books. That is one way of checking and balancing your books.
- Pay your bills on time.
This will help you build a good credit standing and relationship with your suppliers. In fact, you might be able to get more favorable payment terms when you decide to expand your business. You will also avoid paying past due charges.
- Submit and pay your taxes at least two weeks before the due date.
This is an obligation that you cannot escape so pay early to avoid penalties.
- Plan your hiring
If you plan to hire any personnel, make sure that you list down their job descriptions, responsibilities, accountabilities, working hours, reporting relationships, compensation and benefits so that you can assess if you can already afford to hire.
- Monitor your receivables.
While it is good that you were able to sign up another client, it cannot be considered as revenue if money has not been exchanged. Make sure that you monitor your receivables closely because this will improve your cash flow.
- Hire a reputable accounting firm.
Whether you do your own book keeping or you have someone do it for you, it pays that you hire a reputable accounting firm to complete the taxes and audit.
Many challenges will be encountered when you run your own business but if you follow the accounting practices stated above, running your business will be a lot easier.

Hello Blog, it's been a while!
So it's been a while since my last post on this blog, although this is just a catch-all blog and not where I do most of my posting. But blogs should never get stale. I have been crazy busy! Since my last post I have finished a very busy summer season at the Pomegranate Inn (still open but not as busy this time of year), have 1802 House Inn in Kennebunkport under contract, Spottsbrooke under contract, I listed Wild Iris Inn in Portland, I've shown quite a few properties to out of town inn buyers, I have another set of inn buyers coming up next month, I got my Broker's license (from Associate Broker), I'm scheduled for two cooking demos (for the cookbook) at the Maine Home and Remodeling Show in Portland and in Durham, New Hampshire in February and March, AND Stonewall Kitchen has asked me to teach some brunch classes at their cooking school in York, Maine (that's not until May). What I miss is photography! But with zero time, something had to give, and it certainly wasn't going to be real estate. Fortunately, I have help at the inn. So there, you know what I've been up to!

In a recent decision to uphold a complaint about misleading use of "as seen on TV" in advertising, the Advertising Standards Authority has revised its interpretation of the claim and "raised the bar." Hannah Willson reports.
Topic: TV
Who: Committee of Advertising Practice
Where: UK
When: April 2012
Law stated as at: April 2012
What happened:
There has been an about-turn for advertising using 'As seen on TV' claims by the Advertising Standards Authority ("ASA") in a recent adjudication against Ergoflex Limited.
Up to this case, it had been thought that "As seen on TV" could be used in press ads for a product if it could be shown that ads for the same product had previously appeared on TV. This principle seemed to have been established in the 2010 ASA case involving national press advertising for vibrating footrests by Sasaki International Ltd.
In contrast, the latest adjudication against Ergoflex by the ASA has turned the tables 180°.
The ads
In this case, the use of "As seen on TV" was on websites of mattress retailer Ergoflex. The sites also used "As seen in" as in "As seen in The Mail on Sunday, the Telegraph, The Observer, the Daily Mail, House Beautiful, The Sunday Times, 4 Homes and Channel 4."
When these claims were challenged, Ergoflex produced copies of pages in the listed publications showing their mattresses. All of these appearances except for that in "House Beautiful" magazine, however, were paid for by Ergoflex.
The advertiser also produced a letter from the producer of a contest broadcast on Channel 4. This asked Ergoflex to donate a mattress to be used as a prize for a contestant.
Other evidence was by way of notification to Ergoflex from various Channel 4 programme production entities that their mattresses had apparently appeared in one or more programmes.
The ASA decides on "as seen in" referring to press appearances
In the adjudication the ASA first looked at the "as seen in" references to various newspapers and magazines. The regulator considered that consumers would understand an 'as seen in' claim to imply an editorial decision was taken by the relevant publisher to feature the products in question.
Since this applied to none of the relevant appearances except for that in "House Beautiful", the ASA held that since consumers would regard the "as seen in" references as indicating an editorial decision to feature Ergoflex products, thus constituting an independent endorsement of the product, its use in relation to the paid-for appearances was misleading.
This decision therefore changes the position from that indicated by Sasaki, which accepted that previous paid-for ads for the product in question justified use of "As seen on."
What about "As seen on TV"?
Turning to the use of "as seen in… Channel 4" and "as seen on TV," it did seem from the evidence that the relevant decisions to feature Ergoflex products were editorial decisions by the programme makers. There was also mention of Ergoflex in a list of featured brands on the website of the Channel 4 programme "This Morning."
However, the ASA had seen no actual evidence that the Ergoflex mattress advertised in the challenged ads was specifically referenced during any Channel 4 programme.
In light of this and the fact that no mattresses appearing in the referenced Channel 4 programmes were readily identifiable as Ergoflex products, the ASA again held that the use of "as seen in Channel 4" and "As seen on TV" were misleading.
This was because again, the ASA considered that consumers would understand "as seen on TV" to indicate that the makers of the programme had taken an editorial decision to feature the product, thereby constituting an independent endorsement.
Consumers would also believe that the product was specifically referenced and readily identifiable in the programme in question.
The ASA therefore concluded that the ad breached the CAP Code for being misleading (rule 3.1) and for lacking the required substantiation (rule 3.7) and it must not be shown in the same form again.
Why this matters:
This does appear to be a rather harsh decision given the previous decision in Sasaki where paid-for advertising was sufficient to substantiate an "As seen on TV" claim.
Ergoflex argued that the use in a Home makeover programme of its memory foam mattress, without specific mention during the programme but specific mention on the Channel 4 website was sufficient substantiation to satisfy Cap Code Rule 3.7. But this did not wash with the ASA.
Therefore, if you are looking to use an 'as seen' claim, be it for news print or TV, the following must apply to the previous appearances in the relevant media:
• the product was specifically referenced and readily identifiable as your product;
• there was no payment for the product to appear; and
• there was an editorial decision by the relevant producers to include the product.
Clearly, therefore, paid-for product placement under the recently introduced regime allowing this, will not qualify!

Palm trees and bougainvilleas surround spacious pools and paths winding among fragrant jasmine bushes, leading to the beach.
Tunisia - a paradise for all kinds of water sports water skis, boards with a sail, swim in the pool or in the sea, snorkeling, etc.
In Tunisia, there are no private beaches closed are all available. However, each hotel has its own "zone", the purity of which he is responsible. Visit the beach for free, beds - usually also get free. Paid (about $ 1) on some beaches are plastic beds with mattresses. By the pool is always a hotel employee, who will, at your request free sunbed and umbrella.
Do not take to the beach money and valuables. Just a trifle to buy drinks. Do not buy fruit at the beach. They are expensive and can be washed badly. If you want to eat and drink, it has a bar on the beach. Do not change the currency on the beach. Leaving the beach, collect all the garbage in the package and reported it to the nearest trash can.

General Description
Community Based Residential Facilities (CBRFs) are group living arrangements that serve five or more residents and provide room, board, supervision and other supportive services. Residents have private or shared rooms and most have shared bathrooms.
CBRFs were first licensed in the late seventies. CBRF is an umbrella category that includes single family homes used for group living, group homes, dormitories, and apartment buildings with separate apartments. CBRFs vary in size from 5 to over 100 beds. Whatever their size or setting, they are all licensed under the same provisions and subject to the same regulations. Facilities with over 20 beds are subject to additional requirements for fire protection, sanitation, construction and maintenance, and other aspects of the physical environment.
The licensing term CBRF is an umbrella category that covers facilities that may provide care to people of all ages with all types of physical and mental impairments. CBRFs are intended for people who are neither acutely ill nor need extensive amounts of nursing care, yet cannot live independently. Some CBRFs serve a specific population, e.g., the frail elderly, working age adults with disabilities, elderly with dementia, while others serve a heterogeneous population, e.g., people of all ages with a range of physical or mental impairments.
The CBRF regulations state that it is desirable to provide services to a specialized target group, but the state does not require it, in part because the state has many rural areas and there may not be a large enough population in each target group to guarantee full occupancy. Whatever the population served, the CBRF regulations require that the facility be able to meet the residents' needs. Most residents of CBRFs are elderly persons who pay privately, so generally, public policy does not drive the industry.
Physical Plant Requirements
Newly constructed CBRFs must have at least 100 sq. ft. of floor area in each single and 160 sq. ft. in each double occupancy bedroom. Minimum bedroom floor area for existing buildings is 60 sq. ft. per resident for multiple occupancies and 80 sq. ft. for single occupancies in facilities serving ambulatory residents only, and 80 and 100 sq. feet for single and multiple occupancies respectively in facilities serving semi-ambulatory and non-ambulatory residents.
The proportion of CBRF beds in single rooms depend on the county and the population served. There are many small facilities with eight beds and dual occupancy rooms. Larger facilities tend to offer private rooms and baths, generally to meet the preferences of private pay residents. The newer, larger facilities generally have only private rooms, but there is considerable variability regarding private baths.
Whether or not Medicaid clients have private rooms depends on the availability of these rooms in a given county, and the county's willingness to pay for private rooms using state Community Options Program funds. Facilities enrolled in the Family Care pilot program vary in the number of private units available from 20 percent to 75 percent of total units. The percent of Medicaid clients in private rooms varies considerably by county, most likely reflecting the availability and cost of private rooms in each county.
Room and Board
Room and board is paid for with either private funds or public funding through SSI. There are no data indicating what percentage of people in CBRFs are private pay and what percentage are SSI eligible. Wisconsin does not set room and board rates for Medicaid waiver clients in CBRFs because the waiver program is administered at the local level by the counties. Consequently, many people who are eligible for the waiver cannot afford to pay market rate room and board costs in CBRFs, or any other residential care setting. In some instances, a waiver client may be able to receive state COP funds to help them pay for room and board costs.
Some CBRFs will accept the SSI benefit as payment for room and board costs for people who are eligible for Medicaid through SSI eligibility or through the Medically Needy program.
CBRFs serve people who do not require care above an intermediate level of nursing care and need no more than 3 hours of nursing services per week. Nursing care includes anything that is covered by the state's nurse practice act, including tasks that can be delegated, e.g., dressing changes. Assistance with ADLs is not considered a nursing task. Nurses do not have to be on site to supervise delegated tasks. Nurses can be paid hourly or on retainer for a certain number of hours per week. Exceptions to the hourly limits are made for temporary conditions lasting no more than 90 days or longer with department approval.
Sources of Public Funding for Services in CBRFs
General Revenue Funded Community Options Program
The Community Options Program (COP) was originally designed as a home care program in 1982 and there was no separate funding source for individuals in residential care who required long term care services. Once the state approved funding of services in CBRFs through COP and the waiver program (in the mid-eighties) and established new regulatory requirements for receipt of this funding (see below), the industry responded with a growth in new facilities that met the regulatory requirements.
Consequently, greater and greater amounts of COP and waiver funding went for residential care--80 to 90 percent in some counties. In response, the state set a statewide maximum amount of COP and waiver funding that could be spent in CBRFs. This maximum was set at 25 percent of a county's COP and waiver allocation. Because it was recognized that a statewide cap did not accommodate local needs, the policy was changed. Counties now set their own maximum amount of COP and waiver allocations that will be used for CBRF care.
All Medicaid state plan services--e.g., personal care, medications, and skilled nursing and therapies through home health care--are provided in CBRFs. Both waiver funds and state plan funds can be used to pay for services in CBRFs. The primary reason for introducing Medicaid waiver payments for care in CBRFs was that it was a more cost-effective way of delivering services than the nursing home for people who, for whatever reason, could not live at home. In the nursing home, the state pays for everything--room and board and services, whereas in CBRFs, they pay only for services.
In 1988, personal care was added to the state plan. The date when personal care was first covered in Community Based Residential Facilities varies by county. The rationale for adding personal care to the state plan was that existing programs providing personal care were not sufficient to meet the demand, and many persons with disabilities did not qualify for these programs. Prior to coverage under the state plan, personal care provided in Community Based Residential Facilities was paid for through the waiver program, the state's Community Options Program, county funding, and federal block grant funding, e.g., Title XX dollars.
Whereas people eligible for waiver services often face long waiting lists, there is no waiting list for personal care under the state plan because the services are an entitlement for Medicaid eligibles when medically necessary. Once personal care was a Medicaid state plan service, counties, home health agencies and Independent Living Centers could apply for a provider number, which allowed them to provide services.
In 2001, 2,473 residents in CBRFs were receiving services funded by COP, the Medicaid waiver or the state plan. Together these public pay residents occupy 11.5 percent of the state's total CBRF capacity of 21,468 beds. Only a very small proportion of these residents were receiving personal care services through the state plan.9
State plan personal care services and waiver services used to be limited to persons in CBRFs no larger than eight beds.10 The reason for this policy was that the state did not want to encourage the payment of public money intended to serve individuals in home-like settings, to quasi-institutional residential care facilities. Historically, the state has used small bed size as a proxy for "home-like." Consequently, residents who spent down to Medicaid eligibility in a facility that was larger than eight beds would have to move to a different facility to receive Medicaid, waiver, or COP covered services.
In 2002, the state revised the policy that limited Medicaid funding to CBRFs with eight beds or fewer. The state now allows waiver funding to be used in CBRFs with up to 20 beds, and more than 20 beds with Department approval. Residents receiving personal care through the state plan may not be served in CBRFs with more than 20 beds.
Medicaid waiver coverage in CBRFs with more than 20 beds may be allowed when one of the following applies:
The facility consists entirely of independent apartments. Independent apartment CBRFs have a separate kitchen, full bathroom, sleeping and living area within each unit.
The Department has approved a variance, requested by the county, to provide COP and/or waiver funding for a specific facility. The variance request has documented how the facility design, environment and programming mitigate the effects of living in a large congregate setting.
This change occurred because many providers, residents, and counties wanted to expand residential options for county clients and no longer felt that size was an appropriate way to define "institutional."
Family Care
Wisconsin's pilot program to redesign long term care financing pays for CBRF services provided to enrollees in the five participating counties. Family Care pays for services in RCACs only in pilot counties where there is a care management organization (CMO) and when the facility is included in the CMO's provider network.
Food Stamps
Persons who live in group community living arrangements, such as RCACs that house no more than 16 persons, can receive food stamps if they are either blind or disabled and meet the program's financial eligibility criteria.
While there are no data on how many were receiving personal care services through the state plan, given that the number receiving COP and waiver services was 2,363, only about .5 percent of the 11.5 percent could have been receiving services through the personal care state plan option.
The SSI-E benefit (a state SSI supplement for persons with high needs) also used to be limited to persons in CBRFs no larger than eight beds.

Intellectual Property Alert
Intellectual Property Alert
Author(s): Seth D. Levy, Jason Chimon
A federal district court just issued a ruling in the longstanding dispute between the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation, the technology transfer office of the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and Washington University in St. Louis.
Last week, a federal district court issued a ruling in the longstanding dispute between the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation, the technology transfer office of the University of Wisconsin, Madison ("WARF"), and Washington University in St. Louis ("WashU"). At the heart of the dispute was the 1995 inter-institutional agreement ("IIA") between WARF and WashU covering a patent that had been co-developed by scientists from the two institutions.
The case revolved around the relative value that WARF assigned to the patent when calculating royalties due to WashU under the IIA. When the patent was added to the IIA in 1998, it was assigned a relatively low value. However, once the patent was licensed to Abbott Laboratories (later, AbbVie) and included as a critical component in AbbVie's drug, Zemplar®, the value should have increased, according to WashU. It stayed the same, however, and WashU argued that WARF had breached the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing in the IIA by not adjusting the patent's relative value. WARF, on the other hand, argued that WashU's claim was time-barred, since it related solely to the initial determination of value in 1998, and that WashU had not raised any issues regarding the amount of royalties it had received in more than a decade, despite WARF having providing WashU the information it needed to assess the patent's value.
In 2016, the lower court ruled in favor of WARF, stating that while the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing did indeed require WARF to assign relative values fairly and in good faith, WashU's claim was time-barred. A year later, the court of appeals disagreed, reasoning that a genuine issue of fact existed regarding the two theories WashU put forward to preserve its claims. First, WashU argued that its claims were preserved under Wisconsin's "annual payment exception," which made each annual payment—several of which occurred within the statute of limitations—a separate violation. Second, WashU argued that the principle of equitable estoppel should apply, because WARF's alleged concealment of information prevented WashU from timely bringing suit.
Though the opinion of the district court on remand is sealed, the court ultimately sided with WashU, ordering WARF to pay WashU nearly $32 million.
This case highlights the risks associated with what are often viewed as simple, administrative agreements that are commonplace among academic and other research institutions. IIAs are used ubiquitously to manage the joint ownership interests of academic institutions in the intellectual property arising from their researchers' collaborations. Indeed, these agreements are so commonplace that standardized approaches have been developed, such as the so-called Model IIA, a form document relied upon by over forty participating institutions, to help streamline this aspect of technology transfer operations. While this model may adequately address the needs of cooperating research institutions, every situation is unique in some respect, and care should be taken to avoid pitfalls and ensure a proper meeting of the minds between contracting parties. These agreements are intended to foster a mutually beneficial relationship between institutions that are entered into without contentious or protracted negotiations. Still, efforts taken both at the outset and throughout the lifecycle of IIAs to maximize clarity can pay dividends down the road.
Whatever your institution's process may be for creating and managing its IIAs, this case is a useful reminder that, while rare, acrimonious disputes can arise even under the most collaborative of circumstances. Precision in initial drafting, periodic updating of forms and templates and careful examination of IIAs under which significant revenue is being distributed or received can each be valuable exercises and a matter of good housekeeping for any technology transfer office.

Is this a familiar scenario in your classroom? As you start your science lesson, a few kids start putting papers away, in anticipation of leaving. The special education resource teacher appears at the door and collects the kids with Individual Education Plans (IEP). These kids miss the science lesson again. Is the extra help some students need for reading, writing, and speaking English necessary? Absolutely. It is the child's right. But shouldn't they also have the right to explore the natural world? Or to create art and make music? In this month's column, the field editor addresses these questions, and shares her thoughts about science education.
This article has remained true over the last 7 to 8 years. Science is neglected and even forgotten when it comes to other subjects but there is a bright side science teachers are now using science as a vehicle to help students with language barriers to learn the language of English. I have taught students who spoke some or no English but when they get involved in an experiment you can engage their understanding of science concepts while teaching the basics of English.
Understanding is the best way to reach all students and science provides the gateway that opens the door to a child's understanding no matter what their native language is.

Five Buckinghamshire residents who between them have dedicated a total of 138 years to good causes, were awarded British Empire Medals last week.
The prestigious award recognises their hard work and dedication to a variety of causes ranging from services to laboratory medicine and county cricket to works within their local communities.
The five individuals were Kevin Beaumont for services to minor county cricket, Ann Bradshaw for services to laboratory medicine, Rhiannon Lawrence for services to education, Kathleen Martin for services to the community in Chalfont St Giles and Cllr Graham Peart, for services to the community in High Wycombe.
The BEM recipients were presented with their medals by the Lord Lieutenant of Buckinghamshire, Sir Henry Aubrey-Fletcher at a ceremony at Penn House on Tuesday, November 19.
British Empire Medals are awarded to individuals for actions worthy of recognition directly from The Queen.
Kevin Beaumont's involvement with county cricket started in his teens and now spans more than 55 years. His interest in the game progressed from playing to umpiring. Kevin was founder member of the ECB Home Counties Umpire Panel, has been Secretary of Bucks County Cricket Club since 1988 and continues to umpire today in Premier League matches.
Anne Bradshaw has dedicated her career to studying and exploring the area of science concerned with diseases of the blood. She started out studying a bio-chemistry degree at Liverpool but has gone on to work with pioneering medics in the fields of heart transplants and thrombosis and contributed many significant works and insights into the field of haematology.
Rhiannon Lawrence's passion for her role as chair of governors at the Curzon C of E Combined School in Amersham has helped transform both the school and the governing body in her time in post.
Rhiannon has also immersed herself into village and community life from setting up a new baby and toddler group when her own children were young to raising funds for charity and supporting elderly residents in Penn Street.
Kathleen Martin enjoyed a busy career working in both the Royal Navy and also the Foreign Office but on retiring, decided to throw herself in village life in Chalfont St Giles. One of Kathleen's most significant achievements has been establishing Chalfont St Giles and Jordan's Literary Festival.
Cllr Peart's first community work began with efforts to raise funds to install a new pitch and changing rooms at his local junior football club, Hughenden Valley. His love of football has also seen Graham become involved with Wycombe Wanderers, sitting on the board of directors and has overseen the club expand and thrive.
Speaking after the ceremony, Sir Henry Aubrey-Fletcher said: "I am truly astounded by the range of activities undertaken and level of dedication shown by these five Buckinghamshire residents here today. Without any doubt, they are worthy recipients of the British Empire Medal and on behalf of HM The Queen I would like to extend my congratulations and thanks to them all."

Sustainable Subiaco
Subiaco Hair Skin & Body has gone green!
As the first salon in the 4007 Precinct to go green, Subiaco are proud to announce they are part of the Sustainable Salons Australia community.
Did you know, every year, Australian hair salons send one million kilos of foil waste to landfill, where it continues to degrade, but luckily, aluminium foil can be recycled to save precious water and energy, though not many salons know about this.
After discovering the large amount of waste (over 2 million kilos!) salons send to landfill yearly, Paul and Ewelina founded Sustainable Salons Australia (SSA), Australia's most comprehensive recycling program designed for the hair salon environment.
Launched in Sydney almost two years ago, SSA now operate around the country with salons in Newcastle, Canberra, Melbourne, Geelong and of course, Brisbane.
Sustainable Salons Australia have won many awards since conception, but more importantly – they have made a real difference:
- SSA have collected over three tonnes of hair to assist in oil spill clean up operations.
- Recycled over 50,000kg of salon metals (ie. foils and spray cans) resulting in valuable donations to hungry Australians.
- Collected over 10,000 Ponytails, making SSA the largest donor in Australia of Ponytails for children who suffer from alopecia and cancer.
When booking your next appointment in our vibrant 4007 Precinct, think about how you can make a difference and visit the girls at Subiaco Hair Skin & Body. For every action there is an equal and opposite equal and opposite reaction… so make your regular salon visit an earth-friendly, sustainable one.

"I was on my last maternity leave with my 3rd child and had gained a lot of weight that I couldn't get rid of and didn't know how I was going to go about it. I heard of Vincent through friends so booked my first free with him. I enjoyed it so much and never looked back. I started hitting his classes everyday on the unlimited package doing up to 9/10 classes a week. I knew I had to make the most of my situation while being on maternity and I changed my diet slightly in order to help with the weight loss. After just 3 weeks in, I shed 4kg's. I saw a drastic change in such a short space of time which motivated me just to keep going. 6/7 month later I am 20kg's lighter and feel amazing. Because of VDLF losing weight has never been so easy and fun.
With a variety of classes to choose from throughout the week it makes it all that much easier to be able to attend when it suits you."
- Sapna
"Since joining Vincent De Lima fitness my life has improved drastically. Before I joined I was lacking in confidence because of my weight, my health was getting worse day by day, getting ill all the time, running out of breath and not to mention my fatigue. I was very unmotivated as I felt really sad about my weight. I was worried that I would make a show of myself not being able to follow the steps or co-ordinate and everyone will be staring at me in class. However, because of VDLF I am now a lot more confident in myself, my health has massively improved and not to mention how much fun I have had and still have every day. I look forward to going and ensure whenever possible I am there. I have lost 13KGS in 10 months and still not restricting myself to the type of foods I want to eat! This is the biggest achievement so far."
- Sarla
"Before we started working together I had done no exercise for over a year due to several knee surgeries, and wanted to get back into dance and exercise. Initially, I was worried about the intensity of the classes and if I could cope with my knee problems but having the free class to try it out really helped change my mind! I'm now addicted to the classes and don't like it if I have to miss a class. The classes are great fun, and don't seem like hard work at all. I've become much more fit and healthier in the process and the positive results I've achieved have motivated me to work even harder. I have dropped 2 dress sizes since joining and look and feel much healthier; working with you has been amazing!"
- Hinali
"Before I started fitness classes with VDLF I was struggling to find that motivation to work out regularly. I was going to the gym and also had a Personal Trainer, the whole experience just felt like a chore and I absolutely hated it. I found that I always had to really push myself to go, and never felt satisfied after my training sessions as I wasn't an experienced gym user and found the environment a little intimidating. I just couldn't see any progress whilst at the gym. So I decided it was time to try something different. The classes are totally addictive and working with VDLF is absolutely amazing. What I was unable to achieve at the gym I have achieved with VDLF in such a short space of time. VDLF classes are full of motivation, energy and are so much fun at the same time that you don't even realise you are working out. The classes continuously keep me challenged and are always suited and adapted for all abilities. Whilst working with VDLF I have dropped two dress sizes and I feel confident not only in the way I look, but also in the way I feel, thank you Vincent for helping me to move, look and feel better!"
- Kastur
"Vincent's energy in class gives me the energy to keep going, all his classes are fun. The classes are something I look forward to even after a long stressful day at work and since I started with you I have lost 12kg which is amazing!"
- Jasvanti
"Before I joined the classes, I was only doing the gym floor but it got boring and I wanted to give up exercising. One day I decided to start the classes and it happened to be Vincent's dance class that I started from. I tried once 5 years ago and never stopped since. My body has toned up, my metabolic age dropped from my actual age (27) to 14, and the percentage of my body muscles have increased significantly.
I hadn't taken any dance classes before which made me think that I will not be able to keep up with the moves and choreography. I was very wrong.
Working with Vincent has been an absolute pleasure. He is an amazing and experienced dance instructor who makes his classes accessible for everyone. His classes offer great music, wonderful atmosphere, very good workout and so much fun at the same time.
I feel like the classes have helped me release the stress and tension from work. Handling difficult decisions has become much easier."
- Anna
"I was in a stressful job, comfort eating and not exercising at all and had gained two stone, I was miserable! I had heard good things about Vincent and the classes so decided to come along. The process has been quite tough from my perspective as I live in Bedfordshire and travel a distance to get to classes but that is a commitment in itself as the classes are fun and worth it! I have lost roughly two stone since I became a member."
- Jenni
"I started classes 2 months after having a baby and I was eager to lose the baby weight and having been to Vincent's classes before I got pregnant I knew I would lose the weight fast and have fun doing it!
I wasn't sure if I'd be able to keep up but after a few classes I was confident as Vincent's classes are easy to follow whilst being challenging at the same time. The choreography is amazing and updated regularly which is awesome! The whole process has been absolutely brilliant and I love the classes and wish I could do more. My biggest goal so far is that I lost a stone in 3 months!"
- Roopa
"It's been a real experience and I've learnt to let myself go and enjoy the moves, even if they're wrong just to feel it from within and just letting go and not worrying if I do the steps wrong. Now I just give it my all in class barring aches and pains of course, and you always offer options for moves. Dancing without a mirror helps one to overcome any inhibitions. When I do dance in front of a mirror now I realize how far I have come with my expression of dance and I feel confident – thank you!"
- Liz
"I tried many Zumba classes before joining Vincent but they were a bit slow and some I didn't even break a sweat on! When I became a member I found a lovely energetic healthy break from the rat race, and frankly I have more fun than going to a club. Where else can you go crazy, lose every inhibition, sweat like mad, jump and shout, learn dance techniques and sculpt yourself a better, healthier body. I was worried as I live in harrow but this is not an issue at all as I am prepared to even travel further for such excellent classes!
It is great me time, and organised at a convenient time for juggling working mothers. The music and choreography is great. You never know what's coming next, VDLF keep the music and dance steps fresh so you're guaranteed to learn something new every class. I have massively increased my stamina, improved my dance techniques and agility since joining."
- Dareen
"Stretching is something I wanted to learn how to do properly and is something we rarely dedicate enough time towards. I was looking forward to having a class focused on this and helping us stretch properly to help avoid injuries. The class is a friendly and relaxed environment which supports all level of ability. The class is a varied and intense workout! I leave the class with a floating feeling, with muscles relaxed and my mind calm and focused and ready for the day. I have increased flexibility and now feel I can focus the mind."
- Seema
"I felt a tad anxious trying the class as I have more of a dance/cardio interest but also because I have limited flexibility so thought I probably won't take to it much, but was willing to give it a try. I love how the instructor uses the time to focus on your body and mind and teaching them to become more supple and less rigid. The music helps me work out and feel more calm and relaxed and I love the focus on stretching and breathing exercises. After class I feel extremely calm, chilled and relaxed, but feel like I have worked my whole body. It definitely compliments my ability in other classes such as dance and Zumba, and although a work in progress, my flexibility has definitely improved."
- Jess
"I felt fine before coming to class as was doing Zumba and Pilates but wanted more toning.
I liked that it was slightly out of my comfort zone and stretched me. I thought the class was doing me good and my strength and endurance were improving."
- Mary

I am not sure if you have noticed, but there are a number of young children, especially girls, who love animal. Our poor dog Trouble was cuddled within and inch of his life when I took him to a recent school sports event. And when I run the book stall girls browsing always ohh and ahh over the books with animals on the covers. They are some of my best sellers. Wondering what this was all about, I set out on a mission to find out why animal books are such big sellers.
The Puppy Place is a series of books by Ellen Miles about Charlie and Lizzie who are part of a family who foster rescue puppies. Molly is one of those puppies. She has been left in the care of a nursery owner who is worried a pre-school environment may not be suitable for a dog. Charlie's family say they will foster her for a while, and Charlie sets out to prove that the gentle and loving Molly is just the dog for the pre-school. The only problem is Molly is a rottweiller puppy, and one of Charlie's school mates points out these dogs are know to attack people. A now worried Charlie sets out to find he truth about Molly.
Molly is a heart warming book, with lots of ahhhh moments, but it also has some serious messages about not judging until you know all the fact, and it teaches readers about how puppies and dogs should be treated. And it is a good read for those early chapter book readers, boys and girls alike.
I always say to get children reading reading books you need to find out what interests them, and a lot of children are interested in animals. So have a look at this series of books and I am sure you will find one to suit your animal loving child.

Google Maps' Street View has become more than just a way to find your way around or look at creepy images of your own house on the web. It's now a way to explore parts of the world most of us are way too lazy to visit. You can go to the Grand Canyon, or the Amazon rainforest, or see parts of North Korea. You can even explore inside offices and underwater.
Next stop on the tour: the tallest mountains on Earth. You can now scale Mt. Everest, Mt. Kilimanjaro, Russia's Mt. Elbrus and Argentina's Aconcagua without ever lacing up your hiking boots.
Unlike the Grand Canyon views, shot with Google's new Trekker backpack camera, the mountain views were shot with a tripod and a digital camera with a fisheye lens. Google Innovation Lab employee Dan Fredinburg told Mashable he got the idea to bring Google Maps to the Seven Summits (the highest mountains on each continent) while climbing Japan's Mt. Fuji.
You can see the full collection of photos from the summits and some surrounding attractions and read more about the team behind the Everest trip on the Google Maps blog.

Valentine's Day has come and gone. Tere was going to knit me something in the last few days, which is like a dual shot of things I don't need -- whatever she was going to knit, and deadline-induced panic and frustration. I cover enough of the latter territory on my own.
I asked, as plainly as I've stated it for years in some form to each of the members of my family, "Would you just get me something I've been asking for for years? The shipping will cost more than the goods, and together they won't crack ten dollars. I think no one's paid attention to my request because it's seemed too inconsequential. I'd rather get something that obviously means something to me than someone buying me something that doesn't."
This holy grail? A copy of Abbie Hoffman's Steal This Book. I cut my teeth on it when I was about 11, and I wanted it not only for reminiscence but also because it's a wonderful snapshot of New York City before all the bad neighborhoods downtown went yuppie and beyond. Lo and behold, yesterday I received a copy for Valentine's Day. Not one of the original versions with the black cover, but still the typesetting was the original plates. I'm looking forward to reading back through it.
One of the things I remember reading as a yute was about making sandals from old tires, and I did happen to open to that page today while walking back to my office. I then sat down in front of the current manuscript, not 20 seconds later, and read,
"[Name] had a pair of sandals made here—the peasant kind that's common to this area (wait till you see them—they're so ugly, they're neat!). Anyway, his feet are so big that the shoemaker was just amazed. The night we went to get them fitted to his foot, half the village came to look. The shoes are made with tire treads for the soles."

They say the first step to a problem is recognizing you have it. What happens when you recognize it and you still don't do anything about it?
I mean... Don't get me wrong. We don't live in squalor. We don't let things get unlivable. We scrub our toilets. We vacuum. Dust. Fix the pillows on the couch. We wash dishes and clean out the fridge. It all gets done, one way or another. Laundry, too.
The problem is that it is done with such... disdain. We do it cause we ought to, not because we want to. Not because we were blessed with this house, this stuff, this family, and we should take care of it. We should literally treat these as our prize possessions because they are. We don't deserve any of it. We are so rich, so incredibly rich, in the grand scheme of life. We should be praising God, taking care of the things we are blessed to buy. Dusting our Comcast box and BluRay DVD player with great joy because we don't have to have these items. But we do.
We generally are just like crap, we have so many things, everywhere. This is not okay. I can hear my oldest sister in my head, "Here Megan, here are some piles. Just put everything in these piles away where they go."
I look at the piles and think, I don't know where this goes. For example, hats. Beanies. Gloves? Where do those go? How about gift bags? Or the tissue paper that you use to hide the contents of said gift bag? What about the packaging that the BluRay player comes in? or the manuals for the electronics or kitchen appliances? Where do you put all of the random odds and ends? Things you can't really get rid of but that you don't use all the time?
I don't get it. So stuff just kind of gets shoved places. When that drawer/cabinet/shelf gets full and we go through it we are left with the same questions. Where, for the love of God, does this crap GO? We throw it away. A month or two or five goes by and we spend forever looking for whatever we've thrown away and end up going to buy another one.
Not only is this a frustrating practice but it is also probably the stupidest thing I've ever heard. What a waste. It irritates me that I can keep up with a pretty chaotic day job and yet matters of the home completely boggle my ever-lovin' mind.
I have a specific example. Want to hear it? Christmas was just here a month and some change ago and we use a fake tree. We will until Shepherd gets old enough to have the experience of picking out a tree. What you lack, with a fake tree, is that wonderful pine smell. Isn't that just the best? It is. I know. I have to have it. Enter, the pine smelling candle. Second best thing to a real tree. I have the candle, I can see it right now, from where I sit on the floor of the living room and there is about...an inch/inch and a half or so left in jar.
AN INCH. Give or take.
What in Sam Hill do I do with the candle? Do I pack it up with the rest of the winter straggler stuff for next year? Do I burn it even though it's February and that's really weird? Do I throw it out? Are you reading this, wondering what the heck is wrong with me because this really isn't a big deal?
To me, to my whacked out, totally jacked up brain, I don't know what to do with it. Honestly. So I do nothing. It's just sitting there. It has stockings on the label.
The fact that this situation which, logically, I know is so low on the importance scale that it doesn't even warrant the time to ponder these questions and yet I choose to just leave it there speaks volumes of my mental state. Now, apply this situation to pretty much every single thing that happens in my life and you have a glimpse of what I deal with.
I'll tell you what else. I feel sad for the candle. I feel sad for whatever stuffed animal Cali has torn apart when I throw it away. Even for the box that holds my Amazon goodies. Goodbye, box. We don't need you anymore. I genuinely feel bad for throwing away a box.
Guys. I need help. Between not knowing what to do and having feels for inanimate objects, I think I might have mental problems. To my credit, I never stop myself from throwing away a box just because I'm sad that it has served my purpose and I'm done with it. Once I make the decision (however long that takes me) to toss something out I don't unmake it. I don't hoard. I might hold on to things a shy too long but I don't have closets full of crap that I call my friends. I'm not that crazy. In fact, when we start to clean, I'm suddenly the trash it monster! I'll just throw away everything. This lamp? I don't need this stupid lamp. GET RID OF IT. This couch? Pfft. PUT IT ON THE CURB. I don't want to keep anything. I want everything gone. Give it away! These pictures from formal 2003? TOSS 'EM. I don't know where to put them and I need less of everything everywhere.
This can't be good. I am 98% sure that others do not think or behave like I do. I also don't know how to think like normal people. I used to think it was an age thing.
"I'm 17. Of course my room is dirty with clothes everywhere! When I'm 20 I'll have my crap together."
"I'm 20! I change outfits like 40 times a day. Once for work, once for after work, once for cozy clothes, once for actual pajamas. I don't have time to hang them back up because I have to go shopping for more clothes."
"I'm 22! And married! A lot of mail comes to your house when you own things and there are lots of bills and twice as much laundry. I'll open these envelopes when I'm 25 and never wear clean jeans again! I'm young and in love!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"I'm 26 and I still don't open the mail or listen to my voice mail or wear clean pants because I can't."
Obviously, I do. Eventually. I'll drag my feet for as long as I possibly can and then when I know that I have to put some effort into being a normal adult I do what needs to be done. I just don't understand why it takes me so long to do it. Why do I leave the candle there when it is done serving its purpose? Why don't I deep clean and then maintain so that the next deep clean doesn't make me want to hide in a dark closet for the rest of my life?
Why do I let things go until it gets so bad that getting up out of bed in the morning is daunting?
I don't know how to be better. I don't know how to juggle all of the responsibilities of life. So... I just fake it.

This tool allows students to be linked directly to lessons to see where they might have gone wrong or alternatively where they went right.
Idea 3- Connect Feedback directly with Assessment Criteria
Teachers are able to highlight specific areas of student work and provide a leveled grade on the associated skill being assessed.

Ayb, Part 1: Amousin
jon michael anzalone
Aug 5, 2015
Ayb explores Armenia during its Genocide Centennial commemorations, from the perspective as a new husband seeking to understand the history and culture that I will need to honor and shepherd for my future family. The work travels through ancient histories, religious ceremonies and memorials, recent conflicts, and war as I come to terms with everything from a humanist perspective.
The first section, Amousin, is about arrival in Armenia and understanding who I am and who I can be in this story.
The next sections, to be released in the coming weeks, discuss the Genocide Centennial observations in their many forms, Nagorno-Karabakh and the strangeness of de jure statehood and de facto military occupation, and the political conflicts between Armenia, Turkey, and Azerbaijan.
Part 1: Amousin
