Not realizing, at first, that she had wandered into a hornet's nest, Martina Navratilova joined the transgender debate last December.
She was perturbed by the growing encroachment of transwomen into female athletic competitions, replete with larger hearts and lungs and bones and muscles. (For a frightening taste of what this sort of thing can look like, have a look at MMA transgendered fighter Fox Fallon annihilating opponent Tamikka Brents, caving in her face and dispatching her, concussed and bleeding, to hospital for repairs: criminal assault and battery, in any other age, but perfectly legal – applauded, even – in this brave new era.)
The former tennis great on Twitter: "You can't just proclaim yourself a female and be able to compete against women. There must be some standards, and having a penis and competing as a woman would not fit that standard."
Trans radicals promptly swarmed her, defaming the lesbian icon and ardent feminist as a vicious transphobe and TERF (Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist – a misogynistic slur coined to smear feminists alarmed by the steady erasure, not just of their domains in sports, but of their safe spaces in hospitals, shelters, prisons, and bathrooms.)
The angry mob was led on Twitter by Canadian transgender cyclopath Rachel McKinnon. McKinnon has achieved a modicum of "fame" by employing a male physique to capture a women's world cycling championship, trumpeting the "win" loudly from social media rooftops as a "victory for women". (Needless to say, you don't need the gold medal to pick out which athlete on the podium is McKinnon.)
McKinnon hurled a stream of vitriolic Tweets at Martina, capped by this bon mot: "You don't hit a tennis ball with your penis or vagina. If you do, you're doing it wrong."
Poor Martina. She had – and has – no bone to pick with trans individuals. She was – and is – simply trying to safeguard the integrity of women's sports. Stunned by the vicious responses to her comment, she attempted repeatedly to apologize for giving offense. But McKinnon was having none of it, attacking Martina again and again.
(This is the same Mckinnon, by the way, who cut a YouTube video in 2017 encouraging gender-dysphoric kids to leave their parents and join the "glitter family" – and published it on Mother's Day, no less. Mckinnon, who is childless, clearly has no inkling as to the fierce bond that exists between most parents and their children, no clue that a typical mother's reaction to one of her children in distress is akin to a lioness protecting her cubs.)
A rattled Martina backed away, but not before being provoked into labeling McKinnon as "one nasty human being". She retreated to reflect, to consult, to research more widely, and then resolutely returned in February with an article in The Sunday Times in which she stuck to her guns and reiterated her well-supported stance.
After getting burned by the white-hot wrath of the trans-radical rage machine myself last winter, I was inclined to take refuge in a martini (or twenty). Instead, I pulled a Martina: I took a breather, to soberly review my essays and to deepen my scholarship.
Like Martina I am back, to reiterate what I tried to convey in my essays – stripped of all references to randy bulls, cucumbers, porpoises, and hats: Jack and Jill without the frills, you might say. Here, in four parts, is the essence of that message, rooted in truth as best as I can grasp it.
1. Trans individuals, and those struggling with gender dysphoria, must be accorded the utmost respect.
For some individuals, transition (whether or not attended by hormones or sex reassignment surgery), may be the only way to relieve their discomfort (although the jury remains out as to whether transitioning is wise). They deserve to live their lives free from discrimination and harassment, to be treated just as the rest of us expect to be treated. They deserve inclusion, not condemnation; love, not hate; support, not ridicule.
2. It's biologically impossible for men to become women, or vice versa.
Repeating a lie over and over and over again doesn't make it true. Two plus two equals four, no matter how often and loudly one asserts that it's five. Repetitive incantations of "transwomen are women" cannot turn men into women.
As British transgender physics teacher Debbie Hayton noted in The Economist last year:
"Unless we deny any commonality between human beings and every other species of mammal, people of the sex class that produce ova are female and those whose sex produces sperm are male, and we need one of each to propagate our species."
The trans community is not new, of course. Trans-folk like Hayton have been living quietly among us for many years. What is new is the attempted obliteration of biological truth by trans radicals.
"We need to be intellectually honest. I am not female and I know that I cannot become female, but I can and do live in a way analogous to the way that women live. I make no claims I cannot justify and my life is better for it."
Stubbornly peddling nonsense, it must be said, does the trans community no favours. The public, in general, wish to treat transgender people with respect; but the push by radicals to stifle healthy discourse and to obliterate the rules of science and medicine is having the opposite effect.
"The rights, protections and identities of trans people are being gambled", warned Hayton, "not in a court of law but in the court of public opinion."
3. For their own safety, children and youth must be kept far away from the road to transition.
Contrary to public perception, the majority of transgendered adults have not undergone surgical revision. Only 2% of transgender men and 10% of transgender women have undergone genital surgery. Yet we are busily herding dysphoric youth in that direction.
"Watchful waiting", the careful clinical response to gender dysphoria that previously stood as standard of care, is endlessly mocked by trans radicals, as if physicians and parents stand idly by and "watch" as dysphoric children struggle, unassisted and abandoned. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Watchful waiting incorporates skilled psychotherapy and unbending support to achieve resolution of gender dysphoria in 80-95% of cases, allowing youth to settle comfortably into the gender identity compatible with their biological sex. Smearing this pragmatic approach as neglectful, or as "conversion therapy" is contemptible: the only "conversion" going on is the restoration of an unhealthy state to a healthy one – in my business that's called a win.
Trans-radical dogma, based on poor or no evidence, demands rapid "affirmation" of cross-gender identity for confused pre-teens and adolescents, condemning healthy bodies to permanent sterility and a lifetime of medical care. In my business that's called a loss – at least it used to be.
In February, Oxford Professor Carl Heneghan, Director of the Center for Evidence Based Medicine (EBM) and editor-in-chief of the British Medical Journal's section on EBM, issued a scathing critique of gender-affirming hormone use in children and adolescents. Referencing a letter published in Archive of Diseases in Childhood which characterized administration of puberty blockers to dysphoric youth as a momentous step in the dark, he summarized three main concerns:
- Young people are left in a state of 'developmental limbo' without secondary sexual characteristics that might consolidate gender identity;
- Use is likely to threaten the maturation of the adolescent mind;
- Puberty blockers are being used in the context of profound scientific ignorance.
Heneghan concluded:
"Treatments for under 18 gender dysphoric children and adolescents remain largely experimental. There are a large number of unanswered questions that include the age at start, reversibility; adverse events, long term effects on mental health, quality of life, bone mineral density, osteoporosis in later life and cognition. We wonder whether off label use is appropriate and justified for drugs such as spironolactone which can cause substantial harms, including death. We are also ignorant of the long-term safety profiles of the different (cross-gender hormone) regimens. The current evidence base does not support informed decision making and safe practice."
The trifecta of puberty blocking drugs, cross-gender hormones, and sex-reassignment surgery will, as advertised, halt puberty, alter secondary sex characteristics, remove unwanted parts and install new ones.
What it won't do – what it can't do – is change one's biological sex. It's a toxic therapeutic jockey looking for a horse – and you don't want it astride your children.
4. Children deserve our unshakeable love and care.
"I wrapped your love around me like a chain, but I never was afraid that it would die," sings Brandi Carlile in The Eye. That sums up the relationship that all children, in a better world, would have with their parents. In a better world all parents would remain at their children's side come hell or high water, whether they agree with them or not.
That doesn't mean that loving parents should succumb to the gospel of "affirmation", the positive-sounding concept grossly distorted and weaponized by the trans-radical agenda. It's not the role of good parents to affirm every desire of their children regardless of whether or not it's in their best interests. It's the role of good parents to provide guidance, leadership, structure, and correction.
Good parents teach their children how to properly treat others; to "love their neighbors as themselves", including the trans community.
But teaching love and respect for our trans friends and neighbors doesn't detract from love and respect for truth. It doesn't entail expunging the basic tenets of biology from the minds of our children.
That's a wrap, folks. Time for that martini.

text: First, I fell with my beloved MAXX and when I checked my phone, the screen was literally black, except for two tiny lines, one green and one blue. I had an upgrade coming and decided to get a Turbo. I would not have given up my MAXX for any other reason. I had zero complaints and zero problems. I am posting here, instead of the Turbo area, because the folks who helped me here, in the past, were always right in their help and suggestions. Also, I searched in the Turbo area and found nothing that came close to my problem. So, I am hoping that even though this may be in the wrong area, it would be common to any Android phone, and the same people who were so helpful in the past, would be able to help me. I have always taken my MAXX and hooked up to my PC and backed it up. I simply explored, copied all the folders and pasted into a "MAXX backup" folder. I can see folders I had made with specific topics and photos, i.e. different welding projects, trailer mods, retriever pics, etc. I made those "new" folders in the MAXX, but can't remember how, or how to drag or copy into them. I am trying to regain two things: 1-my Motorola Gallery. I have imported all photos/video that I had saved to my MAXX from my Sony camera. But, am not sure how to get them into the gallery. 2-With the Turbo connect to my PC, I must have forgotten how, but cannot simply go into the Turbo and "make a new folder", nor can I click on the backed up MAXX folder(s) and copy and past or drag and drop to the Turbo. I may have simply forgotten the procedure, but my MAXX had folders with the pictures from projects I worked on that allowed me to open that folder and show other people. on edit--when going thru the list of "my apps", I noticed a couple I had on my MAXX did not show up to re-download to the Turbo. I thought the system knew, somehow, that this new phone could not run the old app, but I saw some apps had a notation about not being compatible with the new phone. I had an app that would let you control volume, buy letting you set your daytime and nighttime settings and you simply clicked on the icon, and chose the one you need. Now, I don't see that one listed and have not seen one in the store, but am still looking. And, in an app, Scanner Pro, I had a lot of "favorites" set and wish I could locate the folder that may be in to regain those settings, I don't think I ever backed it up in Backup Pro, as they never had problems when releasing updates, unlike some apps that are literally ruined. So, I generally trusted that developer. I hope this makes sense and there is a simple solution. I appreciate any help or ideas. Thanks

Wow. 100 episodes. Over 140 hours of content over the past three years. This thing has come a long way since its humble beginnings and the guests in this episode are the people to thank.
(00:04:46) Stephen "Wonderboy" Thompson made his podcast debut back in episode 28. This appearance was his tenth, officially making him the first to hit double digits. If there was an MMA Mad MVP, it'd be hard to argue against Wonderboy. The guy is a legend.
(00:18:33) If it wasn't for David St. Martin's inclusion of the MMA Mad Podcast on the MMA Fighting Morning Report, we may not be doing this right now. That was the single biggest boost we received both in traffic and notoriety. Who would've thought that DSM would make for such a great guest as well. The lovable grouch.
(00:51:47) Cortney Casey was the first female fighter we ever had on the podcast, but she's become way more than a crucial milestone. One of the most entertaining and frequently requested guest in our arsenal, Cortney is always honest and always entertaining, as a result. Truly one of the best guests we have.
(01:05:02) Barstool Sports finally has an designated MMA contributor and the guy is brilliant. Insightful blogs, hilarious videos, a well-rounded set of technical production skills, Robbie Fox is going to be a star at Barstool and Barstool has long been my biggest inspiration to chase my dreams. Thrilled to have him as a part of this episode.
(01:22:10) Nick Newell is one of my favorite people on the planet. There's the amazing career and the inspirational backstory, sure. But above all, he's one of the most kind and genuine people you'll ever come across in this business. He was my first ever one-on-one interview, as well. He'll always have a place in the history of this show.
(01:34:01) Matt Bessette and Jeff Haddad are my best friends in MMA. Far beyond a simple interviewer - interviewee relationship, these guys are always a ton of fun to be around. Jeff is one of the most driven and motivational people I know and Matt is the embodiment of martial arts culture. Respect, honor and discipline. GET MATT TO THE UFC!!! Shout out to Ashley and Michelle.
(1:47:32) Chuck Mindenhall is, for my money, the best writer in sports media. His ability to captivate with his storytelling while pouring his own personality and voice into his work is unparalleled. I've looked up to him on so many different levels, so to have him as a contact and guide through this crazy buiness has been an honor. Truly.
(02:03:25) Outside The Bubble was the first recurring segment we ever featured on this podcast and with it, a star was born. In all seriousness, Monica has meant a great deal to this show both on the mic and behind the scenes. She's been unbelievably supportive through an endless stream of skype conversations and marathon editing sessions. And she's electric content every time you put a mic in her hand. Can't thank her enough.
And I can't thank all of you enough either. This show has been one of the greatest accomplishments of my life. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Many more to come.
- Nick

To TUSD employees:
As you are aware, Governor Ducey has updated the Stay at Home order to allow Phase 1 opening of businesses starting on Saturday May 16th. At this time, Tucson Unified will remain status quo, working remotely where possible, until all social distancing and safety protocols have been determined. If you are currently working remotely, please do not return to your regular Tucson Unified work location until further notice.
Also please remember when you are around others, TUSD employees are required to wear face coverings to help protect everyone in our community.
Thank you for your support and all you have been doing for our students and families.
TUSD COVID-19 Taskforce
Dear TUSD Employees:
The safety of our Tucson Unified community is the highest priority. There are specific recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and the Pima County Health Department to protect yourself and others.
As a public agency and performing many critical functions visible and in contact with our co-workers and the community, TUSD employees have a responsibility to those with whom we come into contact to model and follow the recommendations form the public health experts. Among these recommendations is wearing a face covering when in public and around others. As the Pima County Health Department says, "act like you got it."
Employees are expected to wear a face covering anytime they are on duty in public and will be around others. If you do not have a face covering to use while in public around others, please contact the Health Services department at firstname.lastname@example.com.
According to the latest CDC recommendations, schools will ensure the following guidelines are enforced as programs begin to open on a limited basis.
Promote healthy hygiene practices - Phases 1-3
Ensure social distancing - Phase 1 and 2
Thank you for all you are doing for our staff, students, and families.
Stay Safe, TUSD COVID-19 Task Force
Governor Ducey's "Stay Home, Stay Healthy, Stay Connected" Executive Order requires that "all individuals in the State of Arizona shall limit their time away from their place of residence." That is not a problem for many of us who are now working from home. However, there are also many TUSD employees whose duties cannot be done from home all, or even some, of the workday.
The Governor's Executive Order contains an exception for those conducting certain "essential activities." The Governor recognizes that, even though the schools are empty of students, you are still, in many ways, a lifeline to the students and families you serve, so he has designated public education to be an essential activity. This means that if your duties require you to be at a school site or office at all, or even occasionally when needed, you will not be in violation of the letter, or spirit, of the Governor's Executive Order.
While the Executive Order specifically states that, "no person shall be required to provide documentation or proof of their activities to justify their activities," we all have documentation with us anyway - our TUSD photo ID card. If your duties must take you away from your home and law enforcement happens to inquire, your TUSD ID card proves you are conducting an essential activity.
If you have any questions, please contact email@example.com
Thank you for all you are doing for our students and families.
Stay Safe,
TUSD COVID-19 Task Force

Important parts of every football club are its younger generations, which are given great attention. It is often the case that young players, who have passed all age categories of the Club, perform the game of the first team. The Sarajevo Football Club, as the first club in Bosnia and Herzegovina, established the Academy for the most talented boys from its own team, but also from the whole of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
The conditions in which our young footballers are training are in line with the standards of our Club's first team. The training process within the Sarajevo Football Club Academy is of developmental and educational nature. The focus of work is on discipline, communication, education and the development of motor and football skills.
Apart from trainings, the members of the Sarajevo Football Club Academy broaden their knowledge by attending regular educations, visits to theatres, cinemas and other cultural and entertainment centres. First of all, beside their development in football, the goal of our Club's Academy is the motivation and guidance of children in developing their talents.
The Sarajevo Football Club Academy members' teams are formed according to their age. Top-notch Bosnian and Herzegovinian coaches are working with them; coaches specialized in working with goalkeepers and coaches of physical readiness. Currently, the Academy has three groups of boys - the U-19, U-17 and the U-15 team - competing in the Youth leagues of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Apart from national tournaments, our teams often participate in high-quality international tournaments, achieving significant results.
The tournaments our teams participated in are:
- St. Duje's Cup 2014 - Split (Croatia), 2014
- 62nd International Youth Football Tournament "Kvarner Riviera" - Rijeka (Croatia), 2014.
- Play football, live life - Sarajevo (BiH), 2014.
- Trofeo Dossena - Cremonese (Italija), 2014.
- Generali CEE Cup - Prague (Czech Republic), 2014.
- Future Talents Cup - Budapest (Hungary), 2014.
- Karol Wojtyla Cup - Rome (Italy), 2014.
- Turnir Stara Pazova - Stara Pazova (Srbija), 2015.
- U-16 Fair Play Vienna - Beč (Austrija), 2015.
- Play football, live life- Sarajevo (BiH), 2015.
- Future Talents Cup - Budimpešta (Mađarska), 2016.
- Play football, live life - Sarajevo (BiH), 2016.
- Football cup od Friendship - Bijeljina (BiH), 2016.
- Football cup "Mladen Ramljak" - Zagrb (Hrvatska), 2016.
- CEE CUP - Prag (Češka Republika), 2016.

Description: Banjo - Paramount Style B Tenor
This instrument is playable right out of its original, but worn, repaired case. The neck is straight showing the normal wear and tear on the fret board. The resonator has a few places where the wood has separated, but this is an easy fix. Looking at the serial number, a 9xxx, this instrument was probably made in 1927/1928. This banjo can be restored to its original beauty or, with some new strings put to work immediatedly. It was originally owned by a Texas judge who played in the Alamo City Dixieland Jazz Band. Sadly he was eliminated by the local mafia as his investigations pressed too close to some sensitive areas. Pictures available by request.

The currents j Brandon M Anderson Charles W Clark 10.6084/m9.figshare.1012004.v1 https://iop.figshare.com/articles/figure/_The_currents_strong_j/1012004
Figure 4. The currents js, jo and j = js + jo, for the ground state of a trapped particle with Weyl coupling, with j=\frac{1}{2}, m=\frac{1}{2} and v = 10. For clarity, we have scaled the currents ji by {\rm e}^{r^{2}} to account for the Gaussian damping of the wavefunction, and measured distance in units of 1/v, the spin–orbit length. In all figures the plane defined by y = 0 is plotted. The arrows represent flows of the local normalized current vector. The colour density represents the out-of-plane component of the spin textures, with lightest colour representing the maximal out-of-plane current, and the darkest representing maximal in-plane current. All three currents are azimuthally symmetric. (a) The spin currents, js, have oscillations on the length scale r ~ 2π/v. On the axis with z = 0, the local spin vector is polarized entirely out-of-plane at solutions to tan rv = −rv/v2. For large v, the solutions are given approximately by rv = nπ, where n is an integer. The odd solutions feature in-plane vortex loops of spin, while the spin forms anti-vortices at the even solutions. (b) The orbital currents, jo, are dominated by the in-plane component, which is stronger than the out-of-plane components by a factor of v. A small out-of-plane component is largest on the z = 0 axis. In the upper half plane with y > 0, current converges on the point r = 0, while on the lower half plane all the current diverges away from the point r = 0. (c) The total current, j, is the sum of orbital and spin currents. The contributions from spin and orbital degrees of freedom are conserved independently.

Abstract

We investigate the properties of an atom under the influence of a synthetic three-dimensional spin–orbit coupling (Weyl coupling) in the presence of a harmonic trap. The conservation of total angular momentum provides a numerically efficient scheme for finding the spectrum and eigenfunctions of the system. We show that at large spin–orbit coupling the system undergoes dimensional reduction from three to one dimension at low energies, and the spectrum is approximately Landau level-like. At high energies, the spectrum is approximately given by the three-dimensional isotropic harmonic oscillator. We explore the properties of the ground state in both position and momentum space. We find the ground state has spin textures with oscillations set by the spin–orbit length scale.

Drugstores and malls are the hubs for several eye shadow brands. The shades provided by them look tempting. Blame it on our psychology which cannot help getting drawn to a sight full of rainbow tablets. For some, however, such an attraction can turn fatal. Not all eye shadows are harmless. That is why, it is not always possible to go by the beauty they evoke. How old they are and what ingredients make them up can totally twist the tale. The end result is infliction of allergy. But how do you know that you too have become its victim?
The eye shadow application leaves you in tears:
This is by far one of the most common symptoms of eye shadow allergy. The preliminary stage involves trouble in keeping the eyes open because of an unusual irritation. It is not like a severe pain, but annoyance.
If you do not get rid of the eye shadow you will find yourself in tears within half an hour. It is hard to stop it from happening. The worst possible thing will happen if you cry. This is going to make the allergy even more intense because the tear water will moisten the eye shadow powder which eventually will start going in your eyes. This is going to welcome redness in them.
This can be taken as more severe than the first one. In this case, the eye shadow already has an allergy causing ingredient. A highly pigmented eye shadow can also turn out to be toxic. When it comes in contact with your eyelids you feel severe itch taking place in them. Just think about the poison ivy and caterpillar powder. On contact, they will leave your skin with itches and rashes. This is the same thing that your eyelids get from an allergy inflicting eye shadow. Rashes forming from it may evoke burning sensation.
You will be more at risk of being sensitive to all kinds of eye shadows if your system already suffers from various allergies coming from beef, fish, grass, perfumes, flowers and so on. Under such circumstances, you basically have to avoid eye makeup completely or go for just hypo allergic cosmetics. Sometimes the system recovers from such a problem. Once this positive change takes place, it is possible to go back to wearing normal eye makeup. However, anything expired or has a high dose of toxic ingredients will still leave the eyelids vulnerable.
Conjunctivitis can occur from eye shadow allergies. This is the final probable effect. Apparently, it is quite easy for this virus to spread through all shared cosmetics. So it is best to avoid buying someone's returned cosmetics including eye shadows kits. Conjunctivitis symptoms include all the symptoms discussed above. They are usually accompanied by blurry pink eyes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
The Great Bubble Barrier
How does the Bubble Barrier work?
Is there a Bubble Barrier in use?
How is the plastic collected?
We are using a catchment system which is designed by TGBB to work in line with the Bubble Barrier. The catchment system is always adapted to work with the existing infrastructure of each project. However, the combination of our Bubble Barrier with other catchment systems is also possible.
What is the effect of the Bubble Barrier on fish?
Most species will just pass through the Bubble Barrier or take a short time before they pass it. We nevertheless implement a fish passage in each design, either under the catchment system or under the bubble tube itself. We will always carefully consider the ecological impact of each Bubble Barrier.
Whales use bubbles to hunt fish. Why does the Bubble Barrier not affect fish then?
Humpback whales use the so called "bubble-net feeding" method to concentrate herring near the water surface. The whales use air bubbles to blow a ring around the school of fish before they jointly breach the surface and feed on the fish. Research suggests that the main driver behind the concentration of the fish is the sound which the whales make when they blow the bubble ring. The bubbles will create a "wall of sound" which scares the fish away from it rather than being afraid of the bubbles themselves. Our Bubble Barrier is silent, thin and doesn't come as a surprise.
How much plastic and which size of debris does a Bubble Barrier remove?
During the tests in the IJssel we looked at how these results translate in a river. We tested our Bubble Barrier at the IJssel in various weather conditions and came to the conclusion that it caught 86% of the (floating) test material.
We can catch plastics with a size of 1mm and bigger, like granulate and styrofoam. In the pilot at Wervershoof, we are investigating whether we can catch microplastics measuring 20 micrometers up to 500 micrometers (0,5 millimeters).
Is it possible to remove microplastics from water by using a Bubble Barrier?
Are all types of plastic caught by the Bubble Barrier?
During the tests at Deltares, different types of plastics were tested: from packages, water bottles, popped balloons, plastic bags, bottle caps and plastic grit. Most floating plastics and underwater plastics can be caught. Unfortunately, plastic that has sunk and rolls slowly over the bottom of a river is unlikely to be caught.
What is a Bubble Barrier made of?
Plastic Extraction & Use
What happens to the collected trash?
Energy consumption
How much energy does a Bubble Barrier use?
Strategy & Team
What is the mission of The Great Bubble Barrier?
What is the vision of The Great Bubble Barrier?
Are there career opportunities at The Great Bubble Barrier?
We are proud of our growth, mentality and the impact that we can achieve. To get the rivers free from plastics again, we're always in need of talented and motivated pioneers who can support this mission and want to change the world with their own hands.

Why Wisdom Should be Encouraged In Politics and How to Foster It
It is important for people in society to reach beyond the debase into some loftier idea of how humans can be. They are thinking and feeling creatures that have the capacity to take a moment and be objective about life. Wisdom is the highest form of knowledge that should be encourage among our politicians and our youth to ensure they are helping society.
How to Improve Wisdom:
1. Recognize your emotions and let them go before making judgement.
2. Reflect on behavior and choices.
3. Learn from your environment what works and what doesn't.
4. Seek knowledge from a general and specific mindset.
5. Trust those who believe it is possible to be wrong.
6. Talk to people and gain multiple perspectives.
7. Take your time before making decisions.

The Best Coffee in the World...
Our adventure began several days ago, when the River Maiden coffee shop announced on Facebook that they would begin serving 'the Best Coffee in the World' today. Since adopting our current lifestyle, one of the things we most enjoy is visiting coffee shops, and since I was already a 'fan' of this store, we began to make arrangements to take part in this special offering on it's opening day.
Tuesday night we moored at Hadley's Landing on the Multnomah Channel, and last night we moved closer by anchoring in the North Portland Harbor. And this morning we weighed anchor (and Al nearly 'caught' another anchor BUT, it would have taken too much effort to free, and we were already in our 'nice' clothes, and we were on a mission. So it was a 'catch and release' this time.)
So, we motored to the Vancouver City Dock, which had big company again. A few times back, the Spirit of '98 was our neighbor, but this time the Queen of the West was at the dock, provisioning and preparing for passengers to board tomorrow. This is their first cruise in over two years!
And, back to the coffee. We walked 31+ blocks to our car, and drove to the River Maiden on Devine in Vancouver. We were number 11 and 12 to be served the Panama Esmerelda Especial today, it's debut.
It did taste very good! It was quite fruity. $10 for an 8 oz cup this year, $15 two years ago. $100 for a 12 oz package of beans ($200 two years ago). No inflation!

My mason bees haven't emerged. What can I do? (Opening cocoons)
My mason bees haven't emerged. What can I do? (Opening cocoons)
Mason bees emerge when the time and conditions are right for them - usually in the spring when temperatures are nearing 55F. Depending on your weather patterns it can take two weeks or longer for mason bees to emerge from their cocoons.
Unfortunately, sometimes the bees are slow to emerge or they died in the cocoon due to refrigerator dehydration, extended exposure to direct sunlight (heat), or sitting in a hot mailbox (heat). Mason bees can also die from running out of fuel reserves during hibernation or from disease and other unknown reasons.
When you are wondering when your bees will emerge there are two options:
- Continue to wait to see if the mason bees emerge
- CAREFULLY open a few cocoons up with a pair of scissors
Opening cocoons with a pair of scissors is fairly easy and you can watch the video below.
If your bees haven't emerged by early May, they may need a bit of help with a food source before you release them. You can feed bees that appear to be slow or lethargic by placing them on a cotton ball soaked in an equal parts white sugar and water mix. You can also pick some dandelions or other flowers and place them in the HumidiBee with the live bees.


text: The bonesetter worked in a shop not far from the radiant blue sea. The shop consisted of four rectangular chambers surrounding a courtyard lined with porticos and a pluvium at its center. The walls bore mosaics of animal and human skeletons in pale blue paint and square spirals at the tops and bottoms. The bonesetter had painted them himself. One chamber was dedicated to receiving visitors, the second to display various skeletons he had collected, the third to healing, and the fourth to his library and sleeping quarters. Whenever his assistants posed questions, he would remind them to read the bones first. In the evenings, the bonesetter sat down with his wife to a simple meal of bread, wine, and other things. They were happy, and the people loved them for the healing they brought. One day, a great earthquake killed his wife, destroyed his shop, burned his books, and crushed his collection of skeletons into rubble and dust. Most of the island and its towns lay in ruins. The bonesetter managed to dig up his savings and collect whatever else he had deposited at a local shrine. With a handful of other refugees, the bonesetter embarked on a longship for other islands and lands. He came to a small city on a remote shore. The politarchs, pleased that a healer and philosopher had come to their distant land, invited him to lecture in their court on the acropolis. When the bonesetter began to speak of anatomy, bone structures, and skeletons, the court laughed. They did not believe in bones. Confused, the bonesetter asked them to explain. Bones were just the fossils of old medicine, they said. Nobody believed in them anymore. The bonesetter suggested that they feel their own skulls, bodies and limbs. They instructed him that while indeed there were hardened portions of flesh in their bodies, these were not to be consideres bones. The bonesetter requested that a cadaver be brought. No cadavers were available, since the barbarians threw all dead bodies, weighted with stones, into the sea. The bonesetter asked that a convicted assassin, adulteress, or traitor be brought forward. They brought one who fit all three requirements. The bonesetter asked which arm she had used to strike down her victim. The right, she replied. Then bonesetter severed her left arm, and proceeded to strip it, cut it open and to reveal the humerus, radius, ulna, carpus and phalanges as the poor adulteress bled out on the ground. Straightaway, the court condemned him as a heretic, magician, and murderer. They chained him to the dead woman, weighted them with stones, and threw their bodies into the sea. One headsman secretly said to another that one day the sea would give up all of its dead and their skeletons. The other remarked that in the meantime the dead would have someone to set their bones.

Valuing Venezuela's Orinoco Oil Belt
[ https://www.globalresearch.ca/valuing-v ... lt/5667266 ]
By William Walter Kay Global Research, February 02, 2019
Heavy Oil and Tar Sands
While much is heard of "fracking" these days; steam-injection may in the long run prove to be the petroleum industry game-changer. Steam aids in harvesting heavy oils from sprawling oil-rich sand and clay formations where the oil is too viscous to be worked by conventional pumps.
Initially, all heavy oil (Alberta) was extracted via open-pit mines wherein giant shovels heaved mounds of oil-saturated sand onto giant dump-trucks for transit to separating vats filled with hot water. This method has largely given way to steam-injection. In Alberta's oilsands, where much of this technology originated, heavy oil is now 80% extracted via steam; 20% via mining.
The simplest form of steam injection uses a single well. A hole is drilled down to a heavy oil deposit; then steam is pumped down the hole, sometimes for months. Eventually a blob of oil concentrates near the well's bottom of sufficient viscosity to enable pumping to the surface.
Circa 1978 SAGD (Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage) emerged. With SAGD two lengthy perforated pipes are drilled into place horizontally through the deposit; one pipe a few metres above the other. Both pipes emit steam until a teardrop shaped oil bubble envelopes the lower pipe. Then the top pipe continues to emit steam while the lower pipe goes into reverse; drawing oil to the surface. In 2017 Alberta's oilsands yielded 2.7 million barrels a day; mostly via SAGD.
Three additional innovations are coming to the fore.
Solvent-Assisted SAGD adds designer chemicals (solvents) to the steam-injection process to accelerate the loosening up the oil.
DHSG (Downhole Steam Generation) lowers small but mighty steam generation tools (furnaces) deep into the well. DHSG allows for greater heat conservation and improved fuel economy.
Miniature nuclear reactors are ready for commercial application. Toshiba has developed a prototype reactor specifically for heavy oil extraction. This 5 MW electricity generator simultaneously serves as the furnace for a 900 Celsius steam injection boiler. The reactor promises to replace the elaborate and expensive natural gas infrastructure presently required by oil-field steam injection facilities. Toshiba's prototype needs refueling every 30 years.

Despite her brilliant voice, songwriting savvy and overseas success, Alison Moyet achieved just onetop 40 hit in the U.S. Ah, but what a classic: 1984's "Invisible," which peaked at a paltry No. 31 in the States. Boo!
Meanwhile, Moyet's U.K. album sales total 2+ million, with a million-plus singles sold. All 10 of her studio and compilation albums charted in the Top 30 there, while two of her solo albums hit No. 1. She also logged nine top 30 singles and five top 10s. Not surprisingly: In much of that era, the U.S. charts were consumed with dribble from the likes of Bruce Springsteen rather than the creative music coming from overseas. Thank god for the Brit invasion that started with Human League in 1981 that remains responsible for much of the indelible music of the decade. Hello Duran Duran!
Over time, Moyet has placed more than a dozen major hits on my Taylor Top 40, from "This House," "Wishing You Were Here" and "It Won't Be Long" to "Weak In the Presence of Beauty," "Hoodoo," "Getting Into Something" and "For You Only." The list goes on. And now, it's an Alison iTunes playlist Monday!
Below, pal Pook and meese in 2008 in NYC, when Alison Moyey and Vince Clarke reunited for a Yazoo tour. Backstage, Alison invited us to party hardy… and my god, did we. *

"Whilst 85% of all seafarers will remain at sea for the majority of their working lives and never make the transition from sea to shore, the survey shows that seafarers are far more attracted by the professions to which they have had some contact in their day to day work."
Operations managers, surveyors, fleet managers and harbourmasters all feature in the working lives of seafarers. However, how many seafarers, however, had to deal with a shipbroker or insurer? These professions can seem extremely remote to the average seafarer. But the reality is that all of these professions do need ex-mariners in their offices. People that do understand the realities of life at sea and what is and isn't possible are important. It is, of course, difficult to make a sideways career step, but in the long term, it can be a very good move. It is important that companies in areas of the maritime business that are less obvious and less visible to the average seafarer, but are looking for ex-seafarers to fill some of their key positions, understand that they cannot assume that seafarers have a rounded view of how the international shipping industry fits together and what their company actually does. When marketing their positions to seafarers seeking to come ashore those responsible for recruitment need to understand that a large part of finding the right people is about marketing the company and then clearly and carefully explaining the opportunities that it offers.
For a seafarer used to a hierarchical working life and who has always followed a very defined series of courses and exams to make their career progression up the chain of command, the idea of coming ashore, taking a step sideways and learning a completely new set of skills on the job, can seem extremely daunting and a huge leap into the unknown. It is also important to note that many seafarers do not come from the big commercial shipping centers such as London, New York or Singapore. Their families are based elsewhere, often in more remote locations, so a move ashore can often mean not only an initial drop in take-home salary but also necessitate a move to another part of the country or even another part of the world. The pool therefore of potential experienced officers looking to make a move ashore is always going to be a limited one. However, seafarers should be interested to read that 92% of shoreside workers think it's at least quite important to have ex-seafarers in the office, whilst 35% say it's vital. Yet just over half of seafarers, whether western or Asian, think that it's difficult or very difficult to get a job ashore. To a certain extent, this can be correct. Not every seafarer is cut out for the challenges of a job ashore. For some, the transition to shore life with the stresses and strains of commuting, taxation, office politics, family life and less obvious hierarchal structures can make life at sea too good to leave behind. But those who are perhaps less set in their ways, are able to explain complicated technical issues to a non-technical audience or are able to adapt to a completely new way of working, can find that their skills are very much in demand.
Our survey showed that serving engineering officers think it is easier to get a job ashore than deck officers do (53% vs 39%). However, this doesn't reflect the reality. Both engineering and deck officers with the right attitude and aptitudes are extremely employable. The only difference is that the shoreside career path for an engineering officer is more obvious. Deck officers need to do their research and understand the huge range of maritime-related jobs on the market. In the past 12 months alone Faststream has placed many serving deck officers in a huge range of positions from the obvious to the obscure. We asked seafarers what they thought starting salaries were for an officer with 10 to 15 years of seafaring experience coming ashore in a variety of professions. Most of the seafarers hugely underestimated what starting salaries might be.

EURUSD Completes Head & Shoulders With Price Action Buy Signal
EURUSD has been flirting with this major support level, price has been holding above it for the last few weeks now.
We're starting to see the bulls defend this level aggressively, and the price action communicates we may be starting to see the footprint of bullish dominance here.
Last session a bullish outside day printed as a result of a strong day yesterday. The bullish outside candle is a candlestick buy pattern, and when combined with this major level, holds a lot of value.
Another chart pattern is emerging – the inverted head and shoulders. This is a typically found at the bottom of bearish markets around major turning points, and it is a longer term buy signal.
Consolidating the two analysis, if the bullish price action signal does follow through, and price does push up – it could develop into a much broader move, giving opportunity to a possible long term trade.
Best of luck on the charts!

Some homes in rural Kenya will have to wait longer to get electricity after the budget for building transmission lines and installing transformers was cut by Sh2.6 billion.
MPs on Thursday voted for the removal of Sh1 billion from the Energy ministry budget for taking power lines and transformers to rural Kenya in a plan known as the last mile.
The lawmakers also approved a cut of Sh600 million for buying transformers for constituencies and Sh500 million for connecting schools and health centres to the grid.

Google has put together some great commercials over the years, but this one from 2011 is probably my favorite.
Dear Sophie is designed to showcase the variety of products that Google offers, and is successful in that regard.
Like many effective marketing messages, the commercial tells a story. In this case, Dear Sophie is a Gmail account a new Dad has set up in his daughter's name, and to which he posts messages commemorating special days in Sophie's life. The first email starts with the day Sophie was born and includes a photo of Sophie as a newborn. Subsequent emails include a variety of photos and videos tracing Sophie's progress through her younger years. The emails enable Google to highlight Google products such as Picasa for photos and Youtube for videos. There is also an email that uses Google Maps to show Sophie where she lived for her first 4 years. All of these tools are shown within the Google Chrome browser.
There is beautiful instrumental music playing in the background and it seems to go so well with the video that you would have thought the music was made just for the commercial. But the music is actually from the song Sort Of by Ingrid Michaelson, and it's hard to go wrong with any Ingrid Michaelson song.
I like to show this commercial to my students and tell them my wife and I wish something like this was around while our children were growing up. It seems like a great way to capture, save, and organize all of those special childhood moments. Perhaps it may inspire one of them to create something similar a few years down the road.
The commercial is also successful at getting to the viewer emotionally, another characteristic of an effective promotion. I still get a lump in my throat when I watch this commercial.
So to me, the 90-second video is a winner. By the end of the commercial, you know what company is behind the video, you've gotten a glimpse of some of the company's products and how to use them, there's pictures of babies, there's humor, there's cool technologies, there's great music, and there's likely to be a tear rolling down your cheek when it's over. I don't come close to accomplishing any of that in a 75-minute lecture!
If you'd like to see a couple other great Google videos, here are the links: Reunion and Parisian Love.
How can you not love Google after watching these videos?!
