Yes, yes. We never got to pickups this week. But if it's any consolation, we didn't have much to work with. Danny Woodhead is stashed in many a league and has been mentioned previously. Rashad Jennings isn't exactly exciting.
Zac Stacy makes for a sneaky play or stash this week as he could potentially get the majority of carries for the Rams this week. And Justin Blackmon returns from suspension to save the day if Blaine Gabbert can deliver him a pass.
For more pickups or sneaky stashes, read up at Rotoworld, The Hazean, Fantasy Football Librarian, and FantasyPros. Continue reading

Nanotechnology in general is the study of creating machines under the size of 100 nanometers and the idea, created by Richard P. Feynman in 1959 has progressed from condensing an entire encyclopedia onto the head of a pin into something truly life changing. In more recent times, many impressive new advances are being made in nanotechnology in the field of medicine, allowing doctors to diagnose cancer earlier through advanced imaging and being able to more effectively treat it with more effectively and safer. With these advances being made, one wonders, will nanotech bring about the cure for cancer?
For years now, oncologists have only been able to view cancerous cells or sites using fairly conventional methods, either using a biopsy, ultrasound, MRI etc. These have been very effective in the detection of cancer; however with the introduction of nanotech in the field of oncology, doctors' options for cancer detection have been broadened and improved. It is known that the ability to detect cancerous cells or cells in the precancerous stage relies on the ability to monitor slight changes in molecular composition of the affected cells. Many feel that because of its advanced abilities, nanotechnology can be used to do this more precisely than ever before. The devices used are small enough to infiltrate various parts of the human anatomy which were once off limits unless you were on an operating table. Once inside, they can effectively track various toxicity levels, PH levels and other signs of cancerous cells, enabling the oncologist monitoring the results to act sooner, meaning a higher rate of survival. Nanotechnology doesn't just stop at detection but is being developed to assist in the treatment of cancer as well.
Nanotechnology's versatility is what is key in the treatment of cancer. These devices can be put into the body loaded with targeting information and powerful cancer treating drugs. The targeting information enables these devices to find the specific cells infected followed by that area being doused with drugs in hope of killing off the cancerous or pre-cancerous cells. Another hope is giving these devices the ability to release their treatment at specific times (possibly sequentially or simultaneously at different locations) to be even more efficient in cancer treatment. Another way they are hoping to utilize nanotechnology is through the use of infrared heat. When nanoshells are in specific cancerous cells, the addition of infrared light creates a temperature increase which is deadly to these cells without causing harm to surrounding cells that do not contain these nanoshells. Another device that is being used for treatment delivery is known as a dendrimer. This has been successful due to the large surface area, enabling researchers to attach lethal amounts of cancer fighting agents while still being small enough to infiltrate cell structures. Despite these breakthroughs for treatment, scientists want more.
The ultimate goal with nanotechnology in oncology is for there to be a single device that does it all. A single device that is able to find, identify, track and eliminate cancerous and precancerous cells in the body. With advances in nanotechnology occurring daily, this technology is truly advancing to new heights. Even though this super device isn't here yet, oncologists and treatment specialists are still welcoming what they have due to its efficiency and effectiveness as an alternative diagnostic and treatment tool for cancer and know that it is here to stay. As of right now nanotechnology isn't a cure, but it is a significant step forward in the fight against cancer that will without a doubt save lives and make cancer prevention, detection and eradication more effective than ever before.

Case Could Shape Native American Adoptions
SIOUX FALLS - The U.S. Supreme Court is set to decide a case that could outline the limits of a law on Native American adoptions written by a former U.S. senator from South Dakota.
The former senator, Jim Abourezk, tells the Argus Leader that he hopes the high court can look beyond the emotion involved in the case and affirm the importance of the 1978 Indian Child Welfare Act.
The case in question involves a 3-year-old Cherokee girl whose mother gave her up for adoption after her father sent a text message agreeing to relinquish his parental rights. The father later retracted his permission.
South Carolina's Supreme Court ruled that the case requires special consideration because it involves Native American parents. The U.S. Supreme Court agreed to hear the case Jan. 4.

According to the third law of motion, you van't have an mass move in a particular direction unless there is a proportional opposite mass/acceleration ratio in the opposite direction.
No-one has been able to provide a convincing argument otherwise, but the best one to date is Shawyer's EM Drive. He claims some fancy relativistic effects are what allows his engine to work, but I have read some papers which claim he is a fraud.
My question is, why is it impossible to move a mass in a given direction without a proportional change in the opposite direction?
I'm not talking about a perpetual motion machine, or anything. Sure, the device would need to consume at least the amount of energy proportional to the energy required to accelerate the mass.
Here's a highly hypothetical example: Say we either can project a gravity well in front of our vehicle, and/or project a gravity hill behind. In empty space, the effects of the gravity will be near-negligible by the time they reach any other object, however close to the vehicle they will be more significant. The end result would be the vehicle would move in the given direction, and nothing else around would really move at all.
An even cruder example would be to shine a bright torch out the back of your vehicle. Even though the photons have no mass, wouldn't the vehicle move forward?

Forgive the recent silence; I have been preoccupied by a tough deadline. I was asked to write about my city museum research for a collection of essays on cities and memory, to be published (in Finnish) by the Finnish Literature Society. Now that I have sent my draft off to the editor, I can turn my attention back to you, dear reader.
One of the topics I discuss in my essay is historically-themed public art. I think it can be a particularly interesting way to interpret city history, and at the same time build meaningful urban spaces. Here are a few examples of particularly successful pieces:
First, there's the sculpture pictured above, at the beginning of the post. It's Balancing Act by Stephan Balkenhol, on Axel-Springer-Strasse in Berlin. It poignantly marks the borderland of the Berlin Wall with a larger-than-life figure of a man, perched on a section of the Wall as if it were a tightrope. The effect is iconographic: anyone who knows even a little bit about the history of Berlin immediately gets the message with no need for complicated interpretation. (more…)

Feedback for Love and Laughter has been compiled from 5 customer reviews
The receipient loved the flowers and the choclates and the balloon
sent to my daughter to cheer her up and she loved them the were a lovely surprise for her
Just beautiful and perfect as the surprise
Very pretty arrangement was delivered.
The online ordering and payment experience were fine but - in this case - the floral arrangement was pretty poor. My wife enjoyed the flowers but commented that the arrangement was fairly sloppy and did not transfer well from delivery to vase display. When she saw the price she was quite vocal in her dissatisfaction. When I saw the somewhat pathetic bundle of blooms that she came home with I certainly felt there was little relationship between what was ordered and what was received. I won't risk having flowers provided from the same source again.
On 03-Dec-2019 the supplier responded:Unfortunately the order number you have provided is incomplete and I cannot locate the order using your email address as the search parameter. I am sorry to hear you were disappointed. Can you update me with the correct order number please for me to investigate further since you haven't provided a photo here?

added:Order Number:1033.371390Billing Reference Number:O-471050621H241683ADelivery Date:19/11/19
On 09-Dec-2019 the supplier responded:Thank you - it would appear you haven't contact us directly to give us the opportunity to resolve the issue with you. Can you please forward a photo to firstname.lastname@example.com with photos showing the bouquet as a whole and any close-ups you might have. Look forward to hearing from you.
On 09-Dec-2019 the customer
added:No, I haven't contacted you directly, nor did I intend to. However, YOU obviously engaged Feefo to pester me about my experience so I responded. I didn't take a photo of the flowers and I doubt my wife bothered to; we certainly didn't undertake a photographic survey of the product. We are both busy people which is why we engage for services such as yours. This is why it is disappointing when services fail to deliver to expectations. This is not an 'issue' that can be resolved - our anniversary is passed - so this was simply a poor service outcome. Although, I appreciate that it may be a quality control issue on your side.

The RE/DONE Ankle Crop Ass Rip Jean is our High Rise Ankle Crop jean except it's already torn right below the cheek. Made from our reconstructed vintage Levi's denim, this beautiful pair has been worn in so much that it began to give and tear - we just accelerated the process. On the plus side, this hole has been stitched on either side so that it won't keep growing. Perfectly individual and now, perfectly torn.
Vintage Levi's made in the American South circa 90s, RE/DONE in Los Angeles.. These jeans fit differently than the stretchy, skintight mass-produced jeans you might be used to. Buy your usual jean size - if they feel tight out of the box, it doesn't mean they are too small, it just means you need to spend a little quality time breaking them in. A few hours of wear is all it'll take to make these your new favorite jeans.

Israel & Palestine: Can They Start Over? By Hussein Agha, Robert Malley
Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.
—Winston Churchill
There's no success like failure, and ... failure's no success at all.
—Bob Dylan
The idea of Israeli–Palestinian partition, of a two-state solution, has a singular pedigree. It has been proposed for at least eight decades. Jews first accepted it as Palestinians recoiled; by the time Palestinians warmed to the notion in the late 1980s, Israelis had turned their backs. Still, its proponents manage to portray it as fresh, new, and capable of leading to peace. International consensus on a two-state agreement is, today, stronger than ever. Meanwhile, interest among the two parties most directly concerned wanes and prospects for achieving it diminish.
This inability to turn the idea into practice has prompted reactions that roughly divide into two types. The most common is to blame transient conditions or faulty execution. The implication is that there is no need to revisit fundamental assumptions about the goal itself: an essentially territorial deal that would split historic Palestine into two states along the 1967 borders; divide Jerusalem according to demographic criteria; find a solution to the refugee issue through compensation and resettlement outside of Israel; end the historic conflict; and terminate all claims. What are needed are more optimal conditions, smarter implementation, and some luck.
The history of the peace process has been plagued, according to this account, by unfortunate circumstances: leaders too weak to strike a deal when they wished to or too obdurate to sign one when they could; one side ready for compromise when the other was not; divisions on the Palestinian side or dysfunctional governments on the Israeli one. Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's historic mission was ended by an assassin's bullet; Ariel Sharon's gradual acceptance of a viable Palestinian state was interrupted by a stroke; his successor's attempt to end the conflict was cut short by scandal.
The US figures as a central culprit. President Bill Clinton was excessively soft, President George W. Bush insufficiently interested. Washington kept Arab countries at arm's length and paid inadequate attention to developments on the ground—Israeli settlement construction and Palestinian security infringements. It focused on interim steps rather than the endgame. Most of all, it did not pressure the parties enough, by which typically is meant that it indulged Israel too much. It's a dispiriting list, but one that at least leaves room for optimism: in the right circumstances and with the right US touch, a successful outcome would be within reach. There is truth to all these explanations, and it is beyond dispute that ideal conditions have been missing for the last sixteen years. It is difficult to imagine a time when they will not be.
Today, people point to Benjamin Netanyahu's complicated mix of right-wing credentials and pragmatic streak to argue that he might be the ideal salesman for a historic compromise. During his first term as prime minister, he agreed to territorial withdrawals and implicitly endorsed the overall outlook of the Oslo accords, contradicting campaign pledges and reversing personal commitments. But none of those steps came remotely close to the kind of conversion that would be required to reach a final agreement.

Houston, TX – 19 Jun, 2017 – MRE Consulting, Ltd., has raised more than $113,000 to help fund critical research and other programs conducted by the National MS Society. Team MRE's annual fundraiser, held this year April 29 to April 30, supports the National MS Society South Central Chapter. MS, or multiple sclerosis, is a disease of the central nervous system.
The 2017 cycling event from Houston to Austin adds to the more than $1 million Team MRE has raised over 15 years, earning the company the honor of being inducted into the National MS Society's Circle of Distinction.
MREcyclists accomplished another successful ride this year, with the help of employees, family, friends, and clients– along with perfect cycling weather.The funds will be used to support cutting-edge research, programs, and services, all of which will go towards finding a cure for multiple sclerosis and supporting the National MS Society.
According to the National MS Society's website:
"When Sylvia Lawry started the MS movement in 1946 with the founding of the National MS Society, research into multiple sclerosis was almost non-existent. The disease took years to diagnose, and there were no therapies proven to slow the course of MS.
Things have changed. Decades of research into MS and the basic workings of the immune and nervous systems have built a critical platform of knowledge now serving as a springboard for progress. The Society's $974 million research investment has fueled many of these advances, and today's picture looks different for many:
There are therapies specifically approved for treating and managing MS, and more potential MS therapies in development today than at any other time in history.
MS is more quickly diagnosed, enabling early and sustained therapy to slow disease activity.
There is much greater awareness of the many symptoms of MS and ways to address them to improve quality of life.
Scientists are making breakthroughs in identifying risk factors that can increase a person's susceptibility to MS, which will help lead to ways to prevent the disease."
"MRE's continued support of the MS Society is reflected by our team jersey that is displayed in the MS 150 headquarters – signifying we have raised more than $1 million in donations throughout ouryears of participation in the ride. This milestone encourages us as a company to continue our record of important corporate citizenship as we support those in need," said MRE Vice President Shane Merz.
More than 2.5 million people suffer from MS worldwide, with approximately 400,000 of them living in the United States. Unfortunately, 200 new cases of this central nervous system condition are diagnosed each week, making the National MS Society a critical lifeline.
Over the course of 15 years, Team MRE hasexceeded $1,300,000 in donations to find a cure for this life-altering disease. The professional consulting company is working to exceed its impressive fundraising efforts in the coming years by expanding their team and bringing hope to those affected.
About MS
According to the National MS Society, MS is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system that disrupts the flow of information within the brain, and between the brain and body. For more information, please click here.

I am helping coordinate three and a half day-long workshops in November for anyone interested in learning how to use programming and data science tools to ask and answer questions about online communities like Wikipedia, free and open source software, Twitter, civic media, etc. This will be a new and improved version of the workshops run successfully earlier this year.
The workshops are for people with no previous programming experience and will be free of charge and open to anyone.
Our goal is that, after the three workshops, participants will be able to use data to produce numbers, hypothesis tests, tables, and graphical visualizations to answer questions like:
- Are new contributors to an article in Wikipedia sticking around longer or contributing more than people who joined last year?
- Who are the most active or influential users of a particular Twitter hashtag?
- Are people who participated in a Wikipedia outreach event staying involved? How do they compare to people that joined the project outside of the event?
If you are interested in participating, fill out our registration form here before October 30th. We were heavily oversubscribed last time so registering may help.
If you already know how to program in Python, it would be really awesome if you would volunteer as a mentor! Being a mentor will involve working with participants and talking them through the challenges they encounter in programming. No special preparation is required. If you're interested, send me an email.

I stronly suggest we rename this page to something else. I have become embroiled in a discussion with a customer and their development team who do not fully understand the concept of vservers, and the management team is not strong enough to discern quality of all technical arguments. The developer is using the title of this particular page as an indication that there are "problems with vservers and we shouldnt use them".
The first line of the page does outline how its most often not vserver's fault, but the name of the page seems to summarize a point of view about vservers thats detrimental.
Perhaps we should rename it to soemthing like "programs needing vserver-specific configuration" or the like. Hard to find a nice two word one like "problematic programs", but the name suggests more negative aspects than it should.

As the bass player and often controversial mouthpiece of the Manic Street Preachers, Nicky Wire needs little by way of an introduction. Never one to mince his words or hold back an opinion, his band's tenth studio album, Postcards From A Young Man hits the shops this week, and even though the Manics are now entering their twenty-fifth year, their relevance among today's quite malevolent, hedonistic musical fare is perhaps more important than at any point this past decade.
Since the disappearance of lyricist/guitarist Richey Edwards in 1995, Wire has held the responsibility of main lyricist, writing some of the band's biggest hit singles in the process. Having achieved something of a critical rebirth last year with Journal For Plague Lovers, a record constructed out of lyrical observations left behind by Edwards, Postcards... is seen by the band as being their last major attempt at conquering the commercial market, Wire calling it "one last shot at mass communication".
DiS is waiting patiently for the amiable bassist to finish what seems like a never ending photo shoot, in some ways just grateful to be granted an audience with an artist often labelled - and quite unfairly if today is anything to go by - difficult and unapproachable. Forty or so minutes later, having broached such subjects as the band's continued longevity, New Labour and their disdain for the trade union movement, Tottenham Hotspur Football Club and Ben Myers' new book about their erstwhile guitarist 'Richard', we're quite honoured to have spent such a memorable afternoon in the presence of one of the few recording artists of the 21st Century with something interesting to say.
DiS: Postcards From A Young Man is your tenth album. How many more records do you see the Manic Street Preachers making?
Nicky Wire: It does feel like this record is our last shot at mass communication. Mainly because the industry we grew up in and the fine art of making an album is teetering on the edge. I'm convinced we'll always make music and soundtracks to films no one will ever see, and we want to outdo The Magnetic Fields' 69 Love Songs so if there is another record it will be kind of beyond sprawling! Postcards... does feel like the one where we've thought to ourselves "Fuck it! Let's just throw everything we can at this".
DiS: Musically it represents a drastic change from your last album, Journal For Plague Lovers. Was this something you all agreed on?
Nicky: As the band's residing pop theorist I always thought this was going to be the way with this record. We were at Exit Festival in Serbia having a great time and I'd been listening to Van Halen's cover of 'Pretty Woman' and I thought to myself if we could do something like that in the style of The Supremes with James' (Dean Bradfield) guitar but as a classic rock sound in the vein of Abbey Road through to Pacific Ocean Blue and then add the melody of Abba on top with a nineties production sheen akin to Everything Must Go, we wouldn't go far wrong. After that we started writing, and pretty much everything leant itself to that theory.
DiS: It's interesting you say that as parts of Postcards From A Young Man remind me of Generation Terrorists, certainly 'Auto-Intoxication' and 'I Think I've Found It', which is very similar in structure to 'Little Baby Nothing'. In some ways, it actually sounds like an amalgam of the best bits of your back catalogue, The Holy Bible excepted.
Nicky: That's what we were saying earlier. Sometimes it seems like there are two versions of the band. The Holy Bible/Journal For Plague Lovers version, there's obviously not much of that on this record, but there is a sense of naivety and glamour associated with Generation Terrorists here. At the time, we just thought the most subversive thing we could do was to be completely mainstream as we were living in a musical world of fucking Chapterhouse to the point where I'd question why we exist! Then with Everything Must Go, although we kind of rode the coat tails of Britpop it was totally the opposite to what bands like Sleeper were doing. We've always managed to keep something quite pure. I think we've become authentic at being the Manics, and it's not a fake authenticity because it's riddled with contrivance but that's become our way of being authentic.
DiS: I'd agree with that in so much as you've outlasted so many different musical trends and fashions, not to mention personal tragedy around the band. Do you see yourselves as being the last great survivors, almost?
Nicky: I guess with the exception of Radiohead, and I'm not quite sure if they do exist any more as a band or a business model, there's no one else still around from when we started operating at the same level as us. I mean, even Suede have reformed now and got back on the nostalgia circuit. It's quite staggering!
DiS: Going back to what you just said about bands like Chapterhouse and Sleeper, I remember you once saying in an interview many years ago that Slowdive were "worse than Hitler". Is that a view you still hold today?
Nicky: It was one of Richey's brilliant quotes back in the day. I bow down to his wit and his wisdom at times like that because it was just a way of quite harshly making a point! I do feel the same rage today. We're in the middle of the greatest economic recession we've ever witnessed and there are no guitar bands whatsoever who seem able to engage with that.
DiS: Sadly that seems to be the case. Listening to songs like 'The Descent (Pages 1 & 2) off Postcards... with lyrics like "Will my kingdom just disappear and fade away?" and then on 'Golden Platitudes' ("Oh what a mess we've made") it feels like you're questioning yourselves and society in general.
Nicky: Nothing depresses me more that rock and roll bands of this generation have nothing to say. The urban/metropolitan/grime scene appears to have a bit of reality in what it says, but in our field it's just desperate. What are Two Door Cinema Club singing about? It's beyond my comprehension. There's so much to be inspired by at the moment in either a passionate or negative way, and I do believe rock and roll when we started was about nihilism and romance, narcissism and politics, yet all those things play no part in it any more. Since The Libertines really it's become all about the music, which doesn't half get boring.
DiS: It's difficult to comprehend, as you'd think the current political climate would be a catalyst for new bands to form and emerge.
Nicky: I totally agree with you. Even the track 'All We Make Is Entertainment' off the new record was initially inspired by the selling off of Cadburys. It sounds quite mundane, but there's a theme running through Postcards... in that the only industry we ended up nationalising were the banks, and bearing in mind after thirteen years of a Labour government thinking about all the industries we could have saved - we were always told "You cannot subsidize, the city will decide" by various financial institutions and the minute the banks go tits up they go running to the tax payer and all become subsidized!
DiS: Just going off track slightly but staying with the previous Labour government, what's your view on the fact they had thirteen years to overturn the anti-trade union legislation administered by Margaret Thatcher and the Conservative government beforehand yet failed to do so? As a regional representative and activist for Unite it makes my blood boil!
Nicky: I totally understand your point of view and I think it's actually such a broad stroke as well. It's the whole thing not just the trade union laws. OK, so they did spend money on health and education and minimum wages. There's no disputing their initial surge but every bit of money was funded by simply letting the city run riot! There is no manufacturing base left. It seems really old fashioned to say this but the reason Germany is coming out of the recession so quickly is because they still make brilliant things. And again, quoting 'All We Make Is Entertainment', whether that be chocolate or cars, they'll always tell you they cannot step in because of European Laws. If that's the case, what happened with the fucking banks then? Where was European Law then in terms of subsidizing? It's a deep and scarred betrayal by Labour. They thought they could fob the working classes off with free wi-fi and Costa coffee and that would somehow get them out of poverty and wanting a job. Under New Labour, Britain became a giant call centre really...
DiS: It's a crying shame and I think we're going to suffer even more so as a result for the next four to five years.
Nicky: Unfortunately, yes.
DiS: I saw your recent comeback gig at Hammersmith Working Men's Club and noticed that you only played four Postcards... songs in the set. Was this due to a lack of confidence in playing the new material live at that stage?
Nicky: To be honest, it was purely because of that. The four songs we played are the only ones we'd learned properly! The promotional work on this album has been quite overwhelming and we know from past experience that when you are actually wanted, you have got a chance. It's pointless pretending otherwise. There've been other times around the release of some of our previous records where no one has wanted to talk to us. I guess with us labelling it "one last shot..." we've got to try and justify that to people, although I'm sure anyone at Hammersmith Working Men's Club that evening purely to hear the new songs would say we'd failed! We've got a week lined up at the end of September where we're going to rehearse our entire back catalogue and hopefully learn the new album at the same time.
DiS: It must be quite surreal in a way that the Manic Street Preachers are still deemed relevant, even eighteen years on from your first album?
Nicky: I really think that no one's ever replaced us. In some ways when someone replaces you you have to take that on the chin. You then become a museum band and make a nice living off your past, but the fact we've still got the same rage and the same anger after all these years...I think you can hear it on the record, even people who are not fans of the band hear Postcards From A Young Man and think "God, at least they still put the effort in!" We really wanted to overpower the record with melody. Every string part and every choir has to have a point; it's not just padding that doesn't mean anything, it's got resonance. I see it as a very classically composed seventies-style record and every part has to work.
DiS: There are several high profile collaborations on the record. How did you end up working with the likes of Ian McCulloch, Duff McKagan and John Cale and what did they bring to the songs?
Nicky: When I said to you about throwing everything at it we possibly could we also thought let's just take a punt on people we really admire and see if they'll collaborate with us on the record. As you know, we've got a good tradition of duets. To have a roll call of Shirley Bassey, Nina Persson, Kylie Minogue and Traci Lords is pretty impressive! The major thing with Ian McCulloch was that James, Sean (Moore) and Richey saw his first ever gig as Electrafixion at Bristol Colston Hall in 1994, and I guess when you're younger you sort of feel you are never going to be as old as the person you're watching, and then he's in our studio singing one of our songs! Then you realise he's eight years older than us, which is nothing really. It was hard to equate being a kid and him being an idol, and he really dug something out of the soul for the vocal on 'Some Kind Of Nothingness'. It was pretty magical just watching him. He sang for seven or eight hours just because he wanted to get it right. He wanted it to be like 'To Sir With Love', and I just said to him it could replace 'The Yo Yo Man' on Ocean Rain and then it would be the most perfect album ever! With Duff, Guns'n'Roses are still crucial to us. They were very uncredible - it's not as if anyone else was in love with that band in 1990 but to have Duff call us back and say he'd get his old rig together that he worked with on Appetite For Destruction was pretty special to say the least. We're fanboys at the end of the day, while John Cale just happens to be the coolest musician ever to come out of our home country. I have to say the man's a genius. I've never met anyone who can turn his hand to anything whether it be Stockhausen, Patti Smith or pure pop and make it sound so God damn perfect.
DiS: Just going back to Guns'n'Roses, did you get to see any of the recent shows with Axl Rose and the new line-up?
Nicky: I've got to be honest with you that for me it wasn't really Guns'n'Roses. I can take some reformations if they have three original members or even 50% if you had Slash and Duff but watching a bunch of session musicians and Axl and calling it Guns'n'Roses is maybe just taking it a stretch too far. And he didn't half pick some donkeys to back him! It's a bit like when Iggy Pop had that terrible phase in the mid-1980s and picked these awful session players in bad leather jackets to back him until he rediscovered his mojo. The only thing I will say, and I guess it's not ideal for punters, is that at least there was a real sense of unpredictability and danger about the whole thing. There's no one else who's filled that void.
DiS: You sing lead vocals on 'The Future Has Been Here 4 Ever'. Is this something you now purposely endeavour to contribute to every album, having done so on at least one song with each record since Know Your Enemy?
Nicky: If there's a fragile enough song then I tend to end up singing it - it's kind of like the Graham Coxon role in our band I guess! The slacker-esque, Dinosaur Jr style growl that is always on the point of going out of tune! I think this is probably the best vocal I've ever done. James did try and sing it but when we played it back it almost sounded too...well sung! It was his decision to persuade me to sing 'The Future Has Been Here 4 Ever' and we sort of had this imagination of The June Brides being played by 1970s Rolling Stones so the mixture of indie fragility with cowbells and James' best Keith Richards impersonation worked well.
DiS: The cover artwork for Postcards... features a photo of the actor, Tim Roth. How did that come about and is he a fan of the band?
Nicky: The album is infused with a certain kind of nostalgia and I think most people have already picked up on that. We're not pretending to have made a groundbreaking dubstep record or anything. It's not meant to be a celebration of the past but just our way of trying to point out certain things that the current generation tends to miss out on, almost like a tactile world that was so fulfilling. Going back to the polaroid photo of Tim Roth on the cover, I'm a polaroid obsessive and he's the sole reason James did drama at college. He used to have a skinhead to try and look like the character he played in 'Made In Britain'. James was always a big fan of those late eighties/early nineties grim BBC dramas - 'King Of The Ghetto' was another one he really loved - and at the time Tim Roth and Gary Oldman were the leading lights of this kind of thing.
DiS: It would be quite interesting seeing James playing a bit part in the original version of 'The Firm' with Gary Oldman...
Nicky: That would be fucking brilliant, make my day it would! I'm going to tell him that. It's the greatest ever piece of drama that's been made about football hooligan culture. It's weird really, because we're namechecking these people who've worked on the album or appeared on the cover - Michael Sheen's in the video as well - yet we really don't have any showbiz pals whatsoever! We don't live in that kind of world. We just generally asked people because they kind of fitted in with the record and because we genuinely admire them. It's less a collaboration and more a case of us thinking they can bring something amazing to a song we've written, if that makes sense.
DiS: Staying with the football theme, as a Spurs fan, how far do you think they will progress in this season's Champions League and do you see them sustaining their position in the top four of the Premiership?
Nicky: I think it's going to be one of those seasons where we achieve one or the other. I can honestly see us getting as far as the quarter finals of the Champions League but I fear our Premier League form may suffer as a result. I'd be happy getting beyond the group stages in Europe and finishing mid-table in our domestic league to be honest. A midweek game at White Hart Lane, whether it be in the League, Europe or otherwise is one of the few great traditions of English football still going. It does feel like I'm watching Tottenham v Ajax in 1980 or something.
DiS: What about Gareth Bale? Do you think he could be the future of Welsh football?
Nicky: I think he is, although to be honest I think we've got an amazing crop of young players and if they can get it together the future looks healthy all round. I mean there's Aaron Ramsey who's still recovering from that terrible injury and we can do without Simon Davies retiring just when he's playing out of his skin for Fulham and Ryan Giggs has offered to come back and oversee the development as well. Potentially we have the makings of a really good side, it's just trying to make it all work together. James Collins is playing really well at the minute, and the lad who plays up your way Chris Gunter looks an excellent prospect too. I think John Toshack has done a good job bringing them all through but maybe it is time now for someone else to come in and take it to the next level. I think with international management you just need a figurehead as there's so little time actually spent working with the players. If there is an Ian Rush, Giggs, Gary Speed or Chris Coleman out there with boundless enthusiasm and a dose of national pride, this Welsh squad could really go places.
DiS: Moving onto Ben Myers forthcoming book about Richey Edwards, entitled 'Richard'. Have you read it and if so, what are your thoughts on it?
Nicky: I just feel it's better if I don't see it. It's a free country and it's not going to ruin our lives and in a pure fictional sense it may well have its worth. It's just the presumption that the writer kind of knew someone when to be honest I don't know...maybe I'm the one that didn't know Richey really well? To be honest I haven't even got the balls to say I knew him, because you know, he disappeared one day, and just the portrayal...I don't know, it's like 'Sid And Nancy'. Gary Oldman is great as Sid Vicious but the bloke who played John Lydon is the same bloke who played 'Scully' (Andrew Schofield) in the 1980s Channel 4 series and his portrayal is awful. It's our greatest fear as a band really if someone were to make a film about the band, that James is portrayed as a working class thug, I'm walking around in high heels and a dress all the time and Sean's just twiddling on a trumpet, but as for the book, I think we'll just leave it be.
DiS: I know at the time of Journal For Plague Lovers you talked about finally doing justice to Richey's words. Do you see that record as bringing closure to that period of the band's history now?
Nicky: We don't see it in such straightforward psychological terms. A lot of people are naturally saying that and I can understand it but there's never gonna be any closure by the look of it, and I don't even know if I want there to be if I'm being honest with you. The theory behind it all was to try and be Richey's backing band in a way that we were framing him as a great writer. The pressure behind it was to articulate the music in the same way as the words, because his lyrics are just phenomenal. Why he didn't get a Mercury nomination just for the fucking words I have no idea. Not even on selfish terms, because we have been nominated in the past for Everything Must Go and This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours, but just as a way of recognition for him, really.
DiS: You're going out on tour next month with British Sea Power as main support. Are you fans of their music and was that the main reason for hooking up with them?
Nicky: The main reason we asked them was that I think they're a great ideas band. There's such a lack of that at the moment. It's probably the same reason I liked Klaxons when they first came out because it was rammed full of ideas. Sometimes it's not just the fucking music, there's got to be more to life. British Sea Power are the sort of band hat would do a gig down a mine on a day off, and I really admire their voracity. It's not an easy path they've chosen. They could have just played it simple, and that's not to say I don't think they also write some amazing songs because they do, but there's just something about them which I love them for yet can't quite pin down. Maybe it's the BSP/MSP thing?!?
DiS: I think the other similarity between you and British Sea Power is that they also sing from the heart and live and breathe their lyrics.
Nicky: Definitely. You know, more than anything I am a music fan, and I want to fall in love with bands again, I genuinely do. I fell in love with The Libertines, and the Mystery Jets new record, I'm absolutely devouring it. The first two tracks on the Avi Buffalo record are breathtaking. We are music obsessives, and until someone comes along who are better than us I guess we'll still be around.
DiS: Are there any of your records which in hindsight you wish had been recorded differently?
Nicky: Yeah definitely. We're our own fiercest critics and over the course of ten albums you're never going to get everything right. If you can get beyond 50% I think you're doing really well, and I can never understand for instance why we didn't put 'Prologue To History' on This Is My Truth.... It's our best ever b-side and it would have worked so much better on that record than say, 'Be Natural'. Lifeblood I think has three or four killer songs but it's just too cold and too precise. It doesn't really sound like us. Know Your Enemy I think has got at least eight brilliant tracks but it's too scattershot to make any sort of sense.
DiS: I actually think Know Your Enemy is a better record than many critics give it credit for, and if it weren't for the fact it's maybe five or six tracks too long, think it would be looked upon much more favourably than it has been.
Nicky: There's elements of it I really adore like 'Intravenous Agnostic', which I think is fucking brilliant! Then there's 'The Year Of Purification', which to me is the best impersonation of REM I've ever heard! 'Freedom Of Speech Won't Feed My Children' is another favourite. I love the lyrics, I love the title. There's five tracks on there which in hindsight maybe could have been better or not there at all. I don't know, maybe that bit was a cop out on our behalf? It wasn't long enough to be a sprawling masterpiece, yet at the same time wasn't short enough to be concise, and good. It still sold half a million copies so if you gave me that tomorrow with Postcards From A Young Man I'll be very happy!
DiS: Finally, what would you say in your opinion was THE definitive Manic Street Preachers record?
Nicky: I think it differs for different people. Undoubtedly The Holy Bible is in many respects, and I'm completely happy with that because I think it's a genuine piece of art. On a personal level, Everything Must Go is pretty untouchable because it's a distillation of all of us, whether it be Sean's trumpet, James' songwriting and string arrangements, Richey's lyrics on 'Kevin Carter' and 'The Girl Who Wanted To Be God', and then my social history with 'A Design For Life' and 'Everything Must Go'. I do have a real soft spot for Send Away The Tigers too because it didn't feel like we were a band just before that. We were on the verge of nothingness and to dig that out of ourselves made us fall in love with music again.
Manic Street Preachers head out on an extensive UK tour from Wednesday 29th September. For a full list of dates visit their MySpace.

Making a sleeve from collector to trash can12/12
I posted the ancient dust collector post recently. I'm getting new nordfab pipe and hope that helps TREMENDOUSLY. On to the next issue...opening "the hatch". Currently I put a trash an under it and have about a 3' distance from top of can to bottom of hatch. When I open it and clean out the dust it is a dust storm! I mean I am covered in dust. I was thinking to take a rubber sheet with the elasticity of a rubber band and glue it into a cylinder and zip tie it to "the hatch". I know there are companies that make these sleeves but I thought I could wrap the rubber sleeve around a the hatch and a container of sorts. Any input would help. Mucho gracias
Attached is a shot of a dust collection system that worked well. Note the fan is after the cyclone - this was an attempt to keep the shavings large and fluffy for the horse people that would haul the shavings away for us. This allowed the shavings to drop without going thru the fan, and it cost us some CFM since fan first delivers more direct CFM to the input side.
The cyclone had a rotary air lock under it to keep pressure up in the system so the shavings could drop, and then the air filtered thru the bags.
We first tried a tubular sleeve, but the shavings could bridge and clog it up, so we made a curtain that lapped around just inside the dumpster and fastened up to the deck above tightly. It did not have to be airtight - and should not be - since you want the chips to be able to displace the air.
A few slight problems: It was a pain to check the level, and we had to take a stick one or two times a day to knock down the center, or the pyramid would run up towards the air lock.
Also, when we removed the dumpster, there was lot of dust stirred up in the process. We had two of these dumpsters, with a garage for the extra one to the right.
We never did get horse people to haul the shavings since the Mahogany turned the show horses hooves pink. We paid to have it all landfilled, a real shame.
Correction - This system has the fan first. A previous system had the capacity for us to have the fan after the cyclone. Here, we needed all the capacity we could get, so the fan was mounted first in the system. This did help break up shavings and made for a dustier load.
I appreciate your input and taking the time David. I must confess my lack or ignorance of machine knowledge (actually both). What you speak might as well be another language.
Justify the expense of the perfect solution should have said. Can't believe Nordfab ducting in my little shop will cost over $4000 w/o installation.
First, the world's most expensive dust collection pipe will not have much effect, if any, on the efficiency of your system unless every other component is correctly place, ducted and utilized. You will have a much more expensive system, but that does not mean it will operate better.
Secondly, only someone that knows dust collection should monkey around with this stuff unless you just enjoy fiddling. If you call Oneida or any of the other dust collection people, they can look at what you have and advise you how best to make use of it for maximum efficiency.
Third, dust collection is not sexy or cool, it is mundane and unexciting. But like a good foundation or roof, it will work in the background almost forever with very little attention, and most importantly, allow you to make money and preserve your health.
Thanks David. I don't profess to know anything about dust collectors. My apprehension about calling someone out to look at it is that they'll most likely want to sell me a new system. As a matter of fact that is what happened last Friday. For only $4800 we have a used one they said. The stiles rep that quoted me the Nordfab also stopped by Friday with his Nordfab quote mentioning how another shop he just sold the stuff to as to how clean their floors are now and how thankful the employees are.
Check out Clearvue Cyclones. I bought their 'max' back in 2010 I believe. I also got all my 6" ducting locally and bought my 45's and 90's from PennState I believe.
Made a huge difference! All the savings/dust are in a (for us) big car wash detergent bucket. But bigger then a regular trash can but a regular trash can works well. When the cyclone is not used the dust hangs in the air. For days. But if we use it normally it will move all the air in the shop in 3 minutes. Well worth the investment!
Mine runs on 3 phase and operates in a 2000 sqft shop. I have over 200' of ducting and it pulls a tremendous amount of air at the end of the longest runs. All in, I think I spent around $3500.
Nordfab is nice but get a proper seamless 6" metal duct and the proper fittings from PennState and your off to the races.
Make a simple dust bag that goes from your fan exhaust to trash can it doesn't have to be fancy, it just has to attach reasonably tightly. This design has worked for me. It can be used singly or ganged.
I'm glad that companies that sell fabric filter will sew bags, my first ones were of denim and I did them myself. Pain in the neck!
Try American Fabric Filter, they have done good work for me and use specialized dust collector fabric that beats anything you'll find at a fabric store.
Depending on what you have, make an opening at the top or a fabric "pipe" out the side. At the bottom, loop the fabric (or better yet, use collector bag fabric, with different qualities) to make a loop for a drawstring and a skirt that hangs down into your trash can.
Hose clamp the bag onto the pipe at the top. Drawstring through the fabric loop to tie tight around the trash can (admittedly, a bit of a pain). I use trash bags inside the can to simplify bagging.
Try similar arrangement run horizontally on a ceiling mounted blower to filter atmospheric fines. If you have enough fabric, it works as well as a furnace filter type, is very quiet, and used blowers can be pretty cheap. I empty mine every five years like clockwork and never have to replace a filter.
Thanks! I will try just that! Happy New Year
Thanks! I will try just that! Happy New Year

Shep's Reports From Minnesota NCS #2
Cross Country
It sure is great to come down to sea level and leave that high altitude crap behind me. There's nothing worse than having to perform while breathing through straws. This weekend presented a different challenge, that is, the heat and humidity. Adding to that issue were the impending thunder clouds that could have dumped rain and made the course into a run fest. It didn't. The course consisted of short climbs, moderate technical descents, and soil that had just started drying thus holding your wheels and making your bike feel real slow.
From the gun, the usual suspects arranged themselves at the front: Larson, Brown, Tinker, Green, Wiens, Carl Swenson (my teammate), Hestler, and me. After blowing last week, I chose a more passive position at the back of the front group. By the end of the first lap, I led with Larson and Tinker on my wheel while Brown, Swenson, Green, Hestler, and Gullickson were chasing. I attacked with Larson near the top of the first climb then separated myself from him on the ensueing descent....ten minutes later he caught me and we worked together to separate ourselves from the others, so by the start of the third lap Brown was 25sec back but Molday was driving hard to make contact with us and lurked 29 sec back. Behind them was a group that contained Tinker, Rolli (Green), Dre (Hestler), Carl, and Bishop lying another minute back. Half way through the third lap, Larson attacked as Molday continued his rampage and pressed on by me....I stayed with him till start of the fourth lap, but was unable to keep up as the course turned vertical. Travis was 30 sec back from me, Gullickson and Juarez at 2 min with Dre and Rolli at 3 min. This order of riders would stay the same as the last lap started...I trailed Molday by 45 sec, he was 36 sec behind Larson, and Brown was 38sec behind me. Dre and Green faded into the teens, and Matt Toulouse sat in 19th. At this point cracking would result in a place gained or lost, and luckily that didn't happen. Finish order was Larson, Molday, me, Brown, Tinker with Dre in 16th, Green 22nd, Toulouse 23rd, and Hurley in32nd. Overall Larson, Brown, Me, Gullickson, Wiens, Green 7th, (Bill) Hurley 28th, Hestler 46th, Toulouse 51st.
Short Track
Well the weather changed big time last night with constant downpours, heavy wind and cold temperatures. By the morning the rain had stopped but the high winds remained and were an important factor as the only climb faced these winds! The start was kind of slow as riders tried not to pull in the wind....Jimmi Killen jumped off the front followed by all the usual suspects from yesterday. Larson attacked seven minutes into the 30 min crit with Hestler jumping up to him and staying with him for 4 laps. As Dre fell off the pace Green attacked and I joined him taking up Dre and starting a Canadian team time trial that pursued Larson, and slowly dropped the rest of the field. Through out this attack, I had Carl (my teammate) sitting in the second chase group unwilling to chase due to my presence in the front...hey, who said that there couldn't be teamwork in mountain biking! With a lap to go there was no getting caught or catching Larson, so the game of cat and mouse started....Green attacked the first half of the climb and I countered when he slowed. This dropped Dre off of us but persistent as ever he worked back on the descent and clung on the flats. Entering the final headwind climb to the finish I led out Rolli but with enough power and tactical swerving I beat him in the sprint. Actually I had a radio piece in my ear so when he moved left my manager radioed it to me....ahhh racing in 1999! Meanwhile, Carl attacked his group and soloed the last lap to finish off the podium in 5th place (which could have been higher had he not sacrificed for me!). The weekend was good to Catera/Klein/DKNY with three podium appearances.....looking forward to the next round! Larson now has the overall in the short track as well as the XC...Rolli is second, and I am third.

The trip by Brazilian club Santos for the Red Bull Arena opener seems to have left an impression back home.
A report released late last week out of Brazil says that Cruzeiro have confirmed they will participate in a U.S. tour in June, and that the New England Revolution will take part with an international exhibition.
Zero Hora cites Cruzeiro's international soccer director, Valdir Barbosa, who confirms the club will play at least two matches in the U.S.
"Promoters are on their way to Belo Horizonte on Monday [yesterday] to sign the contracts," Barbosa said on Rádio Itatiaia.
According to the report, Cruzeiro's tour would start with a June 10 match against the Haitian National Team in Miami. On June 13, Cruzeiro would face the New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium, and a potential exhibition match in New Jersey is mentioned as a possibility.
Cruzerio are currently involved in the Copa Libertadores group phase.
Late Monday night Frank Dell'Apa of the Boston Globe cited a source familiar with the negotiations, who confirmed the June 13 date at Gillette Stadium. The match would fall during the two-week break in MLS league action for the World Cup.
The Revolution and Red Bulls were not available for comment.
A reserve Santos squad fielding superstar Neymar drew a large local Brazilian contingent for the sold out opener of Red Bull Arena in Harrison, N.J. The New York Red Bulls won the match 3-1.

A day late – but I was under particular time consraint both today and yesterday. My university requires every current PhD student to submit a "substantial piece of written work" by the end of today, and I can now say – it's done! I submitted a chapter on the spatial analysis of artefacts relating to high-status industries found within the Main City North, a suburb of the ancient Egyptian city of Amarna. Using the awesome open source GIS package Quantum GIS have been able to establish where in this suburb industrial activity took place, where new, unknown working areas may be located, and, to a certain extent, how raw materials as well as finished goods have been distributed. My research aims and objectives can be found on my website.
The site, which is located in Middle Egypt, is currently being excavated by Barry Kemp and the Amarna Trust, this has been the case since the 1970s, but it has been subject to excavations since the 1890s, when Petrie undertook work at Amarna. I was extremely lucky to participate in the Spring 2012 excavation season at Amarna. A preliminary report, written by Barry Kemp can be found here, and I have also published my own photos on Picasa.
The famous bust of Nefertiti was discovered on December 6th 1911 by Ludwig Borchardt and his team within the house of the sculptor Thutmose (within the Main City North) and was subsequently brought to Berlin, which is why the 100th anniversary of its discovery will be marked with an exhibition on Amarna, which I am looking forward to visit.

Back in the day, one of the biggest problems with creating an effective back-up routine was finding enough space to put everything. With the advent of big, fast and ever cheaper USB2 external hard drives, that's no longer a problem.
With this in mind, Norton Save & Restore 2.0 kicks off by automatically scanning your system, hunting down any external hard drives, flash memory devices and other storage systems, choosing what it thinks is the best destination for your backups. If you have more definite views about where you want your back-up destination to be, you can override the automatic options manually.
Another nice touch is that the program automatically monitors your system for the addition of any new internal or external storage devices, offering to add them to a list of back-up sources or destinations. Couple this with installation checks for the correct operation of the Symantec Recovery Disc, and the creation of custom recovery discs if required, and Norton is off to a flying start.
Spoilt for choice
All too often, even high-end back-up software only gives you one choice. Either you can create an image of your entire hard drive, or you can back up selected files and folders. Despite a competitive price tag, Norton's main advantage is that it can do both.
First up, you can create images of your entire drive, or drives, so that if you have a complete failure, you can reload Windows, all your programs, settings and files, just as they were before, in one fell swoop. To save on time and storage space, you can create incremental disk image backups as well as the more normal "one-time back-up" option, so that only the data that has changed is stored in extra, supplemental files.
As well as disk image backups, Norton offers a complete file and folder back-up system. Again, this is fully customisable, so you can choose exactly which files and folders you want to add to your backup list.
Better still, you can add file types to backups so, for example, you could choose JPEG files and the system would scan your entire hard drives looking for photos to back up, just in case any have been stored in unlikely places that you've forgotten about.
On schedule
Best of all, along with its wealth of back-up options for different levels of compression, encryption and password protection, the scheduling system is equally effective and easy to set up, complete with throttling adjustments. These enable you to select your preferred trade-off between back-up speed and how fast PC and even network operation continues to be during the process.
In our tests, with maximum performance dedicated to backup and using an external 500MB USB2 hard drive as the back-up target, the disk image system returned speeds of 1.25GB per minute using the standard compression level and 0.65GB per minute at the highest compression level.
However, the compression ratio worked out almost exactly the same in both cases, reducing 104GB of hard drive data to a 95GB disk image, so you're probably better off going with the standard compression level and getting the extra speed. The image file itself is stored as a number of sequential files (with options for the maximum size per file), making it easy to bounce old backups onto DVDs.
With its speed, sheer ease of use and amazing versatility, Norton Save and Restore 2.0 is definitely a winning package.

The tech world is in a frenzy over the letter Apple's CEO Tim Cook sent to the FBI in response to a request for Apple to create essentially a backdoor to be able to access the San Bernardino terrorists iPhone. It's a messy and a complex situation which puts government against industry and privacy advocates against security advocates. Tim Cook in his letter is right that "this moment calls for public discussion."
My favorite venture capitalist blogger, Fred Wilson, summed it up best for me when he said this in response to Tim Cook's assertion that the contents of your iPhone are none of Apple's business:
That is not an open and shut case to me.
Of course I'd like the contents of my iPhone to be out of reach of everyone other than me. But if that means the contents of the iPhones of child pornographers, sex slaverunners, narco gangsters, terrorists, and a host of other bad people are "none of our business" then that gives me pause.
I don't think we can have it both ways. We have to choose one way or the other.
I think this is also complicated by the fact that Apple had unlocked phones previously. Albert Wenger expresses my fears around this subject:
We cannot and should not be living in digital fortresses any more than we are living in physical fortresses at home. Our homes are safe from thieves and from government not because they couldn't get in if they wanted to but because the law and its enforcement prevents them from doing so. All we have to do is minimal physical security (lock the doors when you are out).
Please repeat after me: Surveillance is a political and legal problem, not a technical problem.
This quote is particularly interesting to me since this weekend when my family and I were away on a trip for President's Day weekend, someone broke into our house (Side Note: We're all fine and they realized once they got in that we didn't have anything valuable to take. We mostly just had to deal with a broken door).
I feel similar to my favorite VC who said "I am struggling with this issue this morning, and I imagine many others are too."
Turning to the healthcare perspective, privacy and security of health information is so important. It's literally the intimate details of your life. I've heard some argue that Apple creating a way for the FBI to access this one phone would mean that all of our health information on iPhones would be at great risk of being compromised. I think that's an exaggeration of what's happening, but I understand the slippery slope argument.
What's interesting is that none of us want our healthcare data to be compromised. However, if we were in a coma and the life saving information was on our iPhone, we'd love for someone to have a way to access that information. I've seen startup companies who've built that ability into the iPhone home screen for just this purpose.
I guess I'm torn on the issue. Privacy is important, but so is security. This weekend I'm going to be chewing on "We cannot and should not be living in digital fortresses any more than we are living in physical fortresses at home." The problem with this concept is that fortresses are something we can plan and build. The other solutions are much more complex.

The Cerno Story
Although officially founded in 2009, the roots for Cerno were established many years earlier. The founding trio--Nick Sheridan, Bret Englander and Dan Wacholder--grew up together in Laguna Beach and dreamed of one day putting all their cumulative artistic and engineering skills together into one creative endeavor.
That endeavor became Cerno, an industrial design and manufacturing company that creates modern LED lighting fixtures and furniture. Although young, the company has already produced an extensive line of products to great acclaim.
Why We Love Cerno Lighting
All Cerno lighting products blend quality, performance and energy efficiency with modern design. While immediately pleasing to the eye, this modern design is hard to categorize at first. Depending on which of the modern table lamps or floor lamps you're looking at, Cerno's design aesthetic is contemporary meets mid-century modern meets industrial steampunk. The lighting fixtures are at once sharp and edgy, yet softened and made accessible with warm cuts of wood. Together with the long-lasting and energy-efficient LEDs, this sustainably harvested wood testifies to Cerno's eco focus.
Fun Facts About Cerno
The company's name, and that of all their contemporary lighting products, are taken from Latin. Cerno means to resolve, distinguish, decide, sift, determine, to perceive. Quite appropriate for a design company.
Noteworthy Products from Cerno
The Salix Pendant by Nick Sheridan features a sleek part-wood, part-metal frame and fits perfectly as a dining room or entryway pendant. For a statement making floor lamp, look to the Valeo LED Floor Lamp. Valeo is a massive lamp design featuring a walnut wood frame supporting an elegant linen shade. And finally, be sure to see the Libri LED Sconce for a fixture that mounts on either side of the bed and is extensively versatile. As with any Cerno lamp, Libri offers an energy efficient LED light source.

The 2018 elections are looking like a lose-lose proposition for the U.S. bond market, according to Bloomberg's Liz McCormick and Alex Harris:
"If Democrats take the House, it raises the odds that congressional leaders will propose an infrastructure-spending bill similar in scope to President Donald Trump's original trillion-dollar proposal. And if the GOP defies expectations and holds on in Congress, tax cut 2.0 becomes more likely. In either case, the result will be debt, debt and more debt."
With the federal budget deficit high and rising, and the Treasury already increasing its bond issuance even as the Federal Reserve scales back its bond holdings, "any dropoff in investor demand for the burgeoning supply of U.S. Treasuries could mean tens of billions of dollars in additional interest -- all of which taxpayers would ultimately have to pay," McCormick and Harris write.
The key quote: "Here's a certainty: It doesn't matter who wins [in November], we're going to be issuing debt forever," Thomas Simons, an economist at Jefferies, tells Bloomberg. "There will be a push toward more expansionary fiscal policy. Be ready."

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is likely to name Denis McDonough, one of his closest national security advisers, as his next chief of staff, according to people familiar with the White House thinking.
However, White House officials say a final decision has not been made.
In tapping McDonough, Obama would be relying on an inner circle ally for the key West Wing post. McDonough, 43, currently serves as the president's deputy national security adviser and is highly regarded by Obama and White House staffers.
McDonough would replace current White House chief of staff Jack Lew, the president's nominee for treasury secretary.
The people familiar with the White House thinking spoke on condition of anonymity because there has been no announcement an appointment.
Before his tenure in the White House, McDonough served as Obama's main adviser on foreign policy issues during the 2008 presidential campaign. Earlier, he worked as a foreign policy specialist in Congress, including as a senior foreign policy adviser to former Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D.
McDonough would be Obama's fifth chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel, William Daly and Pete Rouse, as interim chief of staff, preceded Lew in the job.
If Obama chooses McDonough it will likely be less because of his national security credentials and more because of McDonough's highly regarded status within the White House.
"He's easy to work with and focused on getting the job done for the boss, hammering out the best policy possible given the political realities," said Doug Hattaway, a Democratic consultant who worked with McDonough in the Senate.
McDonough's place in Obama's inner circle was illustrated during the Navy SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden in May 2011. He is among those captured in a White House photograph seated in the situation room with Obama and other senior officials watching the raid unfold.
McDonough grew up in Minnesota, one of 11 children. Two of his brothers are priests. He is a graduate of St. John's University in Minnesota and received his master's degree from Georgetown University.
Associated Press writer Jim Kuhnhenn contributed to this report.

DAVID Mamet's daughter, Zosia Mamet, will co-star in Fox's "Absolutely Fabulous." She's been cast as Saffron, the daughter of Eddie (Kathryn Hahn), who's pals with Patsy (Kristen Johnson) in this adaptation of the Britcom.
The show followed the misadventures of a pair of over-the-hill, drug-addled fashionistas, Edina and Patsy, who were desperate to stay hip and youthful.
Much of their insanity was forced upon Edina's disapproving teenage daughter, Saffy, who tries, unsuccessfully to keep her mom grounded.
The series was a huge hit in the U.K. from 1992 to 1995.
More than a decade ago, Roseanne Barr and Carrie Fischer tried to do a U.S. version of the show for ABC.

Former Mariner's wife sentenced for fraud
TACOMA, Wash. (AP) The wife of former Seattle Mariners outfielder Carlos Peguero was sentenced to a year and a day in prison for using bank cards that belonged to pitcher Felix Hernandez's wife for a $191,000 online shopping spree.
Maria Jacqueline Peguero pleaded guilty in February to wire fraud and was sentenced on Monday in federal court in Tacoma.
Prosecutors say Sandra Hernandez had asked her for help in making some online purchases after the two women became friends. Peguero then used the information between June and September 2012 for unauthorized purchases at Saks Fifth Avenue and Nordstrom.
The Seattle Times reports (http://is.gd/Jy6X6u ) the charges were questioned when Saks Fifth Avenue asked about the difference between the shipping and billing addresses.
As part of a plea deal, Maria Peguero agreed to pay restitution.
