Why I Am Not a Secularist
To correct these limitations, Connolly advances a bold new vision of public diversity that acknowledges questions about its own ideology, incorporates a wider variety of ethical views, and honors the desire of believers and nonbelievers secularjst to represent their faithsopenly in the civic forum. Connolly has articulated a powerful case for a pluralist ethos that is respectful of the essential contestability of social reality and cultivates a generous and forbearing attitude towards political and philosophical differences among various collectivities.
Freedom entails difference; difference entails deep-seated disagreements, disagreements that will not be remedied. It is my understanding that secularism provides the bare outlines for the workings of a radically diverse society.

Intracranial aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations. (includes subarachnoid haemorrhage) - technical article.
Intracranial aneurysm
Intracranial or 'berry' aneurysms are usually saccular but may occasionally be fusiform; they arise as an outpouching from the vessel wall, usually at a branching point. The saccular form comprises a neck and fundus. The neck is usually narrower than the fundus, which can be simple or lobulated and measure from a few millimetres up to several centimetres in diameter. Lobulated aneurysms can be complex and involve nearby branching vessels. Aneurysms are more commonly found on the major vessels of the anterior cerebral circulation (arteries of the circle of Willis), with the region of the anterior communicating artery, the middle cerebral bifurcation, and the internal carotid at the origin of the posterior communicating artery being the most common sites. The posterior circulation (vertebral or basilar arteries) typically accounts for 10 to 15 per cent of cerebral aneurysms that rupture.
Intracranial arteriovenous malformations
Arteriovenous malformations in the central nervous system can be considered as vascular hamartomas; they are not neoplastic. The vascular mesenchyme is split by the development of the brain and so arteriovenous malformations can affect all layers of the brain, skull, and scalp. Several groups of these malformations are recognized, including the more common intracererbral or brain arteriovenous malformation. Other types include cavernous angiomas (cavernoma), venous malformations or capillary telangiectasis; these seldom bleed.
Brain arteriovenous malformations
Brain arteriovenous malformations consist of abnormal communications between arteries and veins and sometimes direct arteriovenous fistulas; the abnormal communications are 50 to 250 mm, with a nidus fed by one or more enlarged feeding arteries and draining veins. The nidus has a sponge-like appearance. They vary very widely in size from tiny lesions of less than 1 cm to large lesions of 6 cm or more. Berry aneurysms can form on feeding arteries to brain arteriovenous malformations; they have an increased risk of rupture and greater complexity of treatment. Brain arteriovenous malformations may present with either haemorrhage, epilepsy or neurological deficit, or they may be found incidentally. Haemorrhage can be into the subarachnoid layer, intraparenchymal, or intraventricular. Ischaemia can be due to a 'steal' phenomenon whereby the malformation acts as an arteriovenous fistula and blood is diverted from nearby cerebral tissue, causing ischaemia. Compression and gliosis around these malformations can cause epilepsy.
Subarachnoid haemorrhage
Subarachnoid haemorrhage occurs when an intracranial aneurysm ruptures, with haemorrhage into the subarachnoid layer around the brain. However, aneurysms can present with pure subdural, intraparenchymal (intracerebral), or intraventricular haemorrhage. Subarachnoid haemorrhage may be caused by other intracranial lesions such as in head injury, haemorrhage stroke, and brain arteriovenous malformations.
Cerebral aneurysm and subarachoid haemorrhage
Cerebral aneurysm
Intracranial aneurysms can be found at any age, but more commonly in adults, with 1 to 3 per cent of adults found to be affected at autopsy. The yearly incidence of rupture is low. Recent evidence suggests that the risk of bleeding from a previously unruptured aneurysm (less than 10 mm in diameter) is less than 0.1 per cent per annum. However, rupture of an intracranial aneurysm (subarachnoid haemorrhage) is a devastating event with a 30 per cent immediate mortality. The 70 per cent who survive the initial ictus may suffer neurological damage ranging from minimal to severe. The risk for further rupture of a previously ruptured aneurysm is substantially higher in the first 2 weeks (approximately 20 per cent), with a 60 per cent mortality, than after 6 months (3 per cent per annum). The frequency of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage is estimated to be between 6 to 12 per 100 000 per annum in most Western populations.
The cause of intracranial aneurysm remains unknown. Extensive genetic studies have failed to find a common molecular biological basis. Some inherited conditions increase the risk of intracranial aneurysm formation, most notably adult polycystic kidney disease. However, the vast majority as yet do not have a known genetic basis, apart from epidemiological evidence that consanguineous first-degree relatives have a fourfold increase in suffering a subarachnoid haemorrhage. We do not as yet understand enough about the natural history to justify the risks of investigation and treatment following screening; at present, screening for intracranial aneurysm is not justified.
Intracranial aneurysms may cause neuronal damage by compression or rupture. Compression may cause pain, dysfunction, or epilepsy. Pain is usually due to meningeal irritation, but vascular stretching may also be a component. Dysfunction can result from the compression of cranial nerves, nearby vasculature, or brain. Brain compression may produce focal neurological changes or, more rarely, epilepsy. Rupture usually results in subarachnoid haemorrhage, but may bleed directly into the brain (intracerebral) or occasional into other intracranial layers such as subdural or intraventricular.
Subarachnoid haemorrhage
Subarachnoid haemorrhage leads to a chemically induced meningitis, vasospasm of the cerebral arteries, and acute obstructive or subacute communicating hydrocephalus. The cause of the cerebral vasospasm is unknown; it is the most common cause of further neurological deterioration in the presence of adequate treatment of the aneurysm and hydrocephalus. Cerebral vasospasm occurs in 60 per cent of survivors and causes delayed neurological deterioration in 25 to 35 per cent, of whom some will slowly recover.
Clinical presentation
Typically, patients present with a sudden (within a fraction of a second) and unusual (never experienced before) headache, which is frequently described as 'like being hit on the back of the head' and many sufferers accuse people nearby of assault. Migraine sufferers struck down by subarachnoid haemorrhage can usually distinguish between their familiar migrainous pain and the ictal headache of the haemorrhage.
The level of consciousness may be reduced and there may be focal neurological signs associated with neck stiffness from the chemical meningitis. Vomiting usually accompanies the headache. Thirty per cent of patients will die at the ictus. The clinical status of the patients should be record according to the World Federation of Neurosurgeons (WFNS) scale, in which the Glasgow coma scale (GCS) is used to measure consciousness: grade 1 = headache + GCS 15; grade II = GCS 13–14, no major neurological deficit; grade III = GCS 13–14 with focal deficit; grade IV = GCS 7–12; grade V = GCS 6–3.
Rebleeding (approximately 4 per cent in the first 24 hours and 16 per cent in next 2 weeks) is the most dangerous sequel of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage. It is associated with a mortality of the order of 60 per cent and significant higher risk of poor outcome. Other causes of deterioration include hydrocephalus (obstructive or communicating) and delayed ischaemic neurological deficits or vasospasm may cause secondary deterioration.
Clinical management is aimed at maintaining the patient's airway, blood pressure, and pain control, since poor ventilation, myocardial complications, and severe head pain all cause further deterioration. The next step is to establish the diagnosis by appropriately timed investigations. Any patient with sudden, unusual headache must be investigated to exclude subarachnoid haemorrhage as an emergency.
The timing of appropriate tests is important in preventing overinvestigation of headaches not due to subarachnoid haemorrhage. Computed tomography (CT) is the technique of choice in establishing the diagnosis. A CT scan within the first 24 h of the ictus carries a 95 per cent sensitivity, falling to 50 per cent at 3 days; urgent access to CT scanning is therefore essential. If the CT is normal or equivocal, lumbar puncture is mandatory to look for xanthochromia (preferably after 3 hours of ictus to allow bilirubin to accumulate). The sample should be spun (3000 rev/min for 10 min) soon after collection to separate out the red blood cells, which otherwise may continue to lyse, supply further oxyhaemoglobin, and allow bilirubin to form in vitro. The presentation of acute bacterial meningitis can simulate that of subarachnoid haemorrhage, so microbiological examination of the cerebrospinal fluid should also be requested.
Cerebral angiography remains the investigation of choice for establishing the cause of the subarachnoid haemorrhage. Magnetic resonance or CT angiography do not yet have equivalent resolution, although recent developments with contrast agents may improve the spatial resolution. The most common cause of subarachnoid haemorrhage is a 'berry' aneurysm in patients over 40 years of age, with arteriovenous malformation more common in patients under 40 years.
Negative cerebral angiography presents a challenge to further management. False-negative angiography (CT scan positive) has been described systematically. Some patterns of haemorrhage in the region of the pons, known as perimesencephalic haemorrhage, are consistently associated with negative angiography. However, some negative angiograms are due to temporary thrombosis of a 'berry' aneurysm or vasospasm of feeding vessels, with subsequent risk of repeated haemorrhage and death. Angiography should be repeated where clinical doubt remains, but must be balanced against the risks of the investigation (less than 0.1 per cent risk of neurological complications when done by an experienced neuroradiologist).
Treatment of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage
Medical management includes bed rest, adequate intravenous fluids (3 litres normal saline/24 h), pain relief, and monitoring of blood pressure, tissue oxygen saturation and neurological status.
Prevention of rebleeding
The greatest risk to a patient with subarachnoid haemorrhage from an established berry aneurysm is rebleeding, which carries about a 60 per cent chance of fatality. Intervention is aimed at stopping the rebleeding; this can be achieved by the surgical application of a clip around the neck of the aneurysm, and has been the standard treatment for many years. Recently, endovascular techniques using detachable platinum coils have been introduced to occlude the aneurysm and prevent rebleeding, thus avoiding the risks associated with craniotomy.
Surgical treatment of aneurysms
Having decided that open intervention via a craniotomy is the appropriate treatment, the next controversial decision revolves around timing. Early surgery (within 3 days) reduces the incidence of early rebleeding, avoids operating with vasospastic arteries, but is technically more demanding as the surgeon is operating around swollen, friable brain. Delayed surgery (after 10 days) allows the brain and arteries to settle after the initial ictus, but the patient must accept the additional 10 per cent mortality from rebleeding. Various neurosurgeons have investigated outcomes from either approach but there has been no rigorous, randomized prospective trial to clarify any difference between early and late surgical intervention.
A multitude of different approaches, both traditional and 'micro', are described for aneurysms of both the anterior and posterior circulations. Standard approaches to aneurysms of the anterior circulation include a frontal incision with the raising of a pterional free or vascularized bone flap and exposure of the sylvian fissure.
The main principles governing the intradural component of the operation are to secure proximal control of the feeding artery(s), remove cerebrospinal fluid either directly or via a lumbar/ventricular drain, and dissect microscopically the arachnoid layers to expose the aneurysm neck.
Clipping the neck
Applying the clip (magnetic resonance imaging-compatible where possible) to the neck of the aneurysm requires knowledge of the feeding artery and its subsequent branches. Incomplete exclusion of the aneurysm for the circulation may lead to rebleeding or reformation. Incorporating branches of the parent vessel may be lead to ischaemic injury and death from brain swelling. It can be extremely difficult to exclude some aneurysms from the circulation, and a compromise between cure and neurovascular injury must be accepted. Some giant aneurysms have thick, calcified walls and external clipping may not be possible; resection of these lesions requires significant periods of operative ischaemia. Brain cooling and other methods of cerebral protection have been tried with varying success.
Incomplete exclusion of the aneurysm can be supported by various preparations such as skeletal muscle (temporalis), acrylic cement, and cottonoid wool. These additional methods have not be shown to alter significantly the incidence of rebleeding and can produce comorbidity from granulation/fibrotic reactions affecting nearby cranial nerves.
Postoperative care
This requires rigorous attention to fluid balance, blood pressure, and neurological status. Neurological deterioration should be investigated, with suitable blood tests to exclude hyponatraemia, estimation of ventilatory status (blood gases), and CT scanning to exclude postoperative haematoma. Transcranial Doppler may be helpful following the development of vasospasm, but can be difficult to interpret in the postoperative period. Postoperative cerebral angiography can help in demonstrating occlusion of the aneurysm and the presence of vasospasm.
Patients can be mobilized when the risk of vasospasm (usually after 5 days) has subsided. Nimodipine, 60 mg 4-hourly, where started preoperatively, should be continued for 21 days. Neurological outcome can be assessed between 6 months and 1 year postoperatively.
Endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysm
Description of technique
The endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms is achieved by the use of detachable platinum coils. These are introduced via a series of catheters from the femoral artery, with placement of a guiding catheter in the internal carotid or vertebral artery, under digital fluoroscopy using a modern digital angiographic system. A microcatheter (1.8–2 F or 1.5 mm) and fine guidewire (0.010–0.014) are introduced into the cerebral circulation and navigated under fluoroscopic guidance into the aneurysm. A series of platinum coils is then placed, commencing with one approximately to the size of the aneurysm. These coils come in a helical configuration with a diameter ranging from 2 to 20 mm. When it has been satisfactorily positioned, the coil it is then detached from the introducing wire by electrolysis of the junction (Guglielmi detachable coil). When a 'basket' has been formed in the centre it is packed with small coils until dense occlusion of the aneurysm is achieved, producing physical obstruction of blood flow into it.
Angiography is used during and at the end of the procedure to confirm the occlusion. Further follow-up angiography is performed, usually about 6 months, later to confirm that the occlusion is stable.
Selection of patients for treatment
Aneurysms in the posterior fossa (basilar derived) are best treated with intravascular methods using detachable platinum coils if possible because of the relatively higher surgical risks in this location. Intervention via craniotomy or the intravascular route for intracranial aneurysms has been studied in the the International Subarachnoid Aneurysm Trial (ISAT).
The International Subarachnoid Aneurysm Trial (ISAT) was a large multicentre, prospective randomised clinical medical trial, comparing the safety and efficacy of endovascular coil treatment and surgical clipping for the treatment of brain aneurysms. The study began in 1994. The first results were published in The Lancet in 2002, and the 10 year data were published again in The Lancet in early September 2005. 2,143 study participants were mostly drawn from U.K. hospitals with the rest drawn from North American and European hospitals. The study found better results with endovascular coil treatment compared to surgical clipping, however subsequent studies have questioned this conclusion. The study was criticised by many clinicians and not well accepted by surgeons. Primary criticisms were related to the study's patient population's generalisability to the wider population, and the long term prognosis of coil embolisation.
Communicating hydrocephalus can be treated by repeated lumbar puncture and usually resolves over 10 days from the ictus. Obstructive hydrocephalus is best treated by a ventricular drain or ventriculoperitoneal (or atrial) shunt.
Haematoma associated with midline shift and reduce consciousness, particularly when outside the parenchyma, can be considered for craniotomy and evacuation; this can either be accompanied by clipping of the aneurysm or preceded by intravascular occlusion.
Management of vasospasm
Cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid haemorrhage is an important cause of additional and potentially avoidable neurological deterioration. Increasing the amount of blood in the subarachnoid space increases the risk of vasospasm. Overall 25 to 35 per cent of patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage will suffer delayed ischaemic neurological deficits due to vasospasm. With current medical management the majority of these patients will suffer permanent neurological deficits as a result.
Medical management of cerebral vasospasm in subarachnoid haemorrhage relies on maintaining adequate blood pressure with intravenous fluids (mixture of crystalloid and colloids, 3.5 l/day), since cerebral perfusion is related to mean arterial pressure and intracranial pressure. The haematocrit can be allowed to fall and inotropes used to push the mean arterial pressure to supraphysiological levels—triple H therapy. A number of other complex metabolic responses also occur during this period (usually day 3 to day 10 post ictus), such as natriuresis, hyponatraemia, and a variety of cardiac arrhythmias.
The prognosis after subarachnoid haemorrhage is largely determined by the initial clinical grade of the patient (WFNS), the amount of intracranial blood (Fisher grade), age, and comorbidity such as hypertension. Patients below the age of 70 years with an initial clinical grade II or better should have a 60 to 80 per cent chance of good or excellent outcome, such as return to work. At the other end of the clinical grades, 70 per cent mortality can be expected in grade V patients, with a few per cent achieving excellent outcomes.
The additional factors that cause deteriorating outcome include rebleeding, cerebral vasospasm, and hydrocephalus; these are potentially avoidable and are best managed in specialist units by those with an interest in neurovascular conditions.
Despite considerable improvements in early diagnosis, prompt intervention to stop rebleeding, and intensive medical management the outcome from subarachnoid haemorrhage, when input grade is compared to outcome, is still worse than for other types of cerebrovascular accident.
Treatment of brain arteriovenous malformations
The risks of rebleeding from brain arteriovenous malformations are much lower than from an aneurysm; thus there is less urgency about treatment. The rebleeding rate is about 2 to 4 per cent per annum. Treatment is aimed at preventing rebleeding or, occasionally, improving focal neurological deficits. The surgical resection of extensive arteriovenous malformations in eloquent areas of the brain is impossible, but these can be treated by a combination of intravascular embolization and stereotactic radiosurgery using a precisely focused radiotherapy or g-ray beam. Some arteriovenous malformations are untreatable by any technique.
The management of patients with brain arteriovenous malformations is complex and depends on a multitude of factors: age, presentation, location and size of the malformations, and particularly whether it is in an eloquent area of the brain. If a decision is made to treat, then the options are as follows:
- Surgery, usually for accessible and small arteriovenous malformations.
- Embolization using microcatheters in feeding arteries and tissue adhesive to obliterate the residue of the malformation. Only about 15 per cent of arteriovenous malformations can be completely obliterated by this method but their size can often be reduced significantly, which makes the lesion more accessible to stereotactic radiation or surgical removal.
- Stereotactic radiosurgery using a gamma knife unit; this consists of about 200 separate cobalt sources and provides highly controlled, focused radiation treatment of brain lesions. In small lesions (less than 1 cm), radiosurgery is over 90 per cent successful but takes 2 years for full effect; for larger lesions the success rate falls. This type of radiation can also be performed by stereotactically adapted linear accelerators, although data on whether the technique is as effective are lacking.
- A combination of the above treatments is frequently used.

Hayden Baker with David Lewis, March 6, 8:30 p.m.
Hayden Baker got his start on YouTube making guitar tutorials, and after Brad Paisley complimented him twice on his playing via Twitter, it's been a straight shot to the stars. Including opening with his band Southern Symphony to a crowd of over 5,000 for Willie Nelson. His music's nod to the 90s coupled with honkey-tonk, those stellar guitar skills and his natural talent for songwriting make Baker one to watch.
David Lewis will be opening for Baker and since his delivery has been described as a mix of Brad Paisley and George Strait, you won't want to be late. His performances are known to be contagiously upbeat, energetic and just plain fun. Joined by his guitar skills and vocal ability, it's easy to understand why he recently won the regional Country Showdown competition and is headed to Nashville to compete for the national title.
For more information and to purchase tickets, please visit: https://bit.ly/3aaK32G.
Hunter Phelps and Joey Greer March 7, 8:30 p.m.
Hunter Phelps, a singer-songwriter from Niceville, FL, went from playing at tailgates and bars in college to sharing the stage with artists such as Jason Aldean, Blake Shelton and Gary Allen. His song "Throwin Parties" shares his way of getting over a breakup, while his newest song "Take Me to Heaven" explores a more romantic side. Phelps' relatable lyrics have a way of making listeners feel the emotion in each song. Phelps is also responsible for a number of hit songs recorded by other artists.
Taking the stage alongside Phelps is Joey Greer, a singer-songwriter from Orange, TX. Greer, who describes himself as a "God-fearing, hardworking, small-town kid," first began performing live at the age of 17. His recently released album "Frontier," combines his unique twist on '90s country and southern rock. Greer's passion for music and stage presence set him aside from other performers.

Hayden Haddock believes in hard work. On the weekends, he performs all across Texas, and during the week, he is a TAMU Junior, studying construction science. But he's not short on talent, either, having his second single peak in the Top 35 and his recently released second album, "Red Dirt Texas," reach No. 39 on the iTunes Country albums chart. Haddock is definitely one to watch, and it doesn't get any better than a free show!
Tyler Booth with Tylor Bigley & The Hambones, March 20, 8:30 p.m.
From Kentucky, Tyler Booth counts Montgomery Gentry and George Molton among his influences. The 2017 release of his self-titled album showcases his unique baritone and gives listeners a chance to experience his versatility in a collection of tunes that range from romantic to fun-loving to boot-stomping.
Tylor Bigley & The Hambones will open for Booth with their own brand of upbeat music expressing both positivity and heartache. Bigley is the sort that dreamed of being a singer and then made it happen, determined not to forget where he started. Because of those promises he made to himself, his music resonates with authenticity.
Stop by Southerns for any or all of these stellar shows!

STOCKTON – Sierra's Abigail Ramirez may be a first-year wrestler, but she does not compete like one.
The Timberwolves sophomore 160-pounder took first place Saturday in the McNair Invitational and she did so in convincing fashion.
"Abigail came out strong and wrestled well," Sierra coach Alex Nuanez said. "She worked her takedowns like a veteran wrestler to win the championship with a first-round pin."

The Case for Compassion: Fatigue in Cops
Does society play a role in helping or hurting our police force? Absolutely.
Once upon a time, the law-enforcement officer was viewed as a respectable profession, one that upheld order and harmony in the community. Those of us from earlier generations understood the police as authority figures worthy of our respect.
But no longer are we in a time where respect for police is a given. Hatred for LEOs has risen significantly, and this corresponds with ample news coverage highlighting the police force's every single flaw.
It is understood that police officers should be held to a higher level of accountability, and that their errors should be made publicly available. There are certain instances of police error and wrongdoing that deserve further coverage. But the topic du jour seems to be to perpetually put officers down, to constantly broadcast a negative perception of these public servants from coast to coast.
Here I question whether this nonstop media coverage of negative police stories will actually bring us closer to a solution.
Imagine your own job role. If there were emails and meetings every day only to point out your flaws and mistakes, would this added pressure help you do your job better? For many people, focusing too much on their errors causes them to make them more frequently. I know this to be true in many service-based roles. Doctors, nurses, and caregivers understand this entirely.
Police officers do, too. Plus, consider the fact that their jobs are high on the scale of demanding and stressful jobs, and that their lives could be on the line at any given time. According to a report published in the National Institute of Justice Journal, officers surveyed say long shifts, overtime, and sleep disruption are among the major factors contributing to their fatigue. Plus, police officers are often not privy to the standardized hours and shifts enjoyed by other professions. According to the report, one officer was said to have worked more 130 hours in a single week.
While federal and local measures are overdue to better support overworked LEOs, there are other ways we as a society can help our officers help us.
We start by identifying the approaches that can negatively impact an officer's ability to do his or her job properly and confidently. This means not allowing the media to drive our perception of every LEO. Know that the MSM constantly pushes race-based discussion when it fits a particular narrative — but only when an offending officer is white and the victim is black. The media's "hyper-focus" on only these sorts of instances (while ignoring other cases when the officer is black or of another minority group) seems to be intent on creating additional division between citizens and law enforcement.
More than ever, people are vocalizing their hatred and disrespect for the police with sentiments echoing your run-of-the-mill anti-police rap track. When you then consider that police officers are often risking their lives on a modest salary and are pressured to make pinpoint accurate judgments in the heat of a high-risk situation, we can't be surprised when the rate of grave mistakes increases.
The onset of this "compassion fatigue" leads us on a downward spiral. The more mistakes that are made, the more media attention garnered. Thus, there will be even more hatred from the public leading to more mistakes made. My fear is that at the end of this spiral will be lawless communities with no one to protect the innocent because of either a lack of LEOs, or fewer LEOs able and willing to do fulfill the call of duty.
But I also see a glint of hope. Overcorrecting this compassion fatigue in our LEOs requires us to know the police for ourselves and to be able to discern whether the media's messages are truthful or inflammatory. This also means that we as a society must also focus on the positives in our police force, too. Because a good police officer is a proud and confident police officer who believes in the community as it believes in him. To create this type of public servant means giving him praise when he goes above and beyond (as many already do). It is acts of appreciation and positive messages in the media that help embolden our LEOs to take their duties in stride. And we, the public, have a part to play in this.
You know what really warms my heart? Seeing photos in the newspaper of senior-living residents delivering cupcakes and cookies to their local officers. If LEOs are as bad and racist as the mainstream media portrays them to be, then why do the wisest in our community commit these genuine acts of kindness? It's because they know what I and so many others know — that it sometimes takes giving compassion to receive compassion in return. For us, this means taking pride in those who have sworn to give all for our safety for the simple fact that these brave souls exist at all.

As I like to combine fashion with stationery in my blog posts, this time is no different and I thought I'd concentrate on the different hues of pink, as I've been seeing them everywhere from fashion catwalks, street style outfits or sakura themed stationery. #fashion #stationery #pinktrend
Pink isn't just a colour, it's an attitude
I love this time of year, flowers are blooming and there is a fresh smell of Spring in the air, weather is warmer, everyone's spending more time outside and you start feeling bold and straight away want to wear more colour to express your happy mood. Or at least I am!
As seen on the catwalks during fashion week, or streets of New York, Paris, Milan and London, everyone is embracing the trend of the colour pink. If it's blazers, handbags or even people's hair, it's shining from all corners and the brighter the better. And there's so many shades - fiesta, neon pink, bubblegum pink, living coral, pink peacock - you name it, it's all happening!
Sakura season in the stationery world
As I mentioned in one of my previous posts, Japanese stationery is my absolute favourite! It's kawaii cute and absolutely lifts my spirits every time I use even just a Hello Kitty pen or some Sakura washi tape. As Marie Kondo would say, "It sparks joy!".
As you can see in the photos below, I use my Midori Traveler's Notebook and one of their kraft inserts for my fashion scrapbooking. But I've just heard that they are coming out with new inserts and accessories this April, these will include dotted inserts which will be perfect for journalling as well as a special paper ideal for watercolours - how amazing is that?
Now that Sakura (cherry blossom) season is upon us, lots of stationery items such as washi tapes, stickers and pens come in special cute pink cherry blossom designs, which is so extra! As you can see on the detailed photos below, the favourites from my personal collection are the sakura washi tapes, my multi-coloured gel pens I got in Japan (you can easily erase them using the rubber at the end, which is very handy) and my light pink My Melody pen. I'm a huge fan of all the Sanrio stationery products. I keep my pens in a neoprene Mt. Fuji case, which I got while on a tour of the famous mountain (used it as a camera case on the day, so it's multi-purpose, which is great when travelling, and also a nice souvenir).
What are your favourite stationery items for this Spring? If you're like me and love Japanese stationery. Here are some of my favourite stores to find inspiration in:
Artbox - especially for Sanrio products, amazing selection
Tofu Cute - got to know them at Anime conventions, very kawaii
The Journal Shop - the ultimate for pro journaling
Japan stationery - so much variety and beautiful craftsmanship
Fox + Star - beautiful online store with Japanese and Korean stationery
The Japanese Shop - they also do postcards and origami paper sets
Or you can also go on Etsy, which is quite addictive and you'll be spoilt for choice in a heaven of fluffy pink. It's nice to support smaller retailers, as there's so much talent out there! Happy browsing.

Thanks for your examples, Abby.
I was taught 'Sticks and Stones' in the 1950s. I recall this rhyme being taught to children by adults who wanted to reduce the hurt that was likely to occur when children became the victims of name-calling {including racial slurs}. I don't remember children ever using in any exchange with peers.
And Abby, thank you also for the resources that you cited. I am interested in the questions that you raised about "the emotional content & force of the stuff. When is it serious and when is it clearly formulaic or just kidding?"
With regard to the song "Green Green Rocky Road", I remember 'being introduced' to the African American singer Odetta by way of a record she made that included this song. And one day a long time ago [1980s?]I caught the tail end of a Sesame Street segment that had African American children chanting this rhyme while performing a line game {2 verticle lines with an 'alley' in the middle like the 'The Soul Train Line"}.
The closest version of that song I have ever found is "Oh, Green Fields, Roxie". That song is included in "Step It Down" Bessie Jones and Bess Lomax Hawes' 1972 book on African American children's game songs & rhymes from the Georgia Sea Islands {published by theUniv. of Georgia Press, pps 74-75}. However, instead of 'Roxie", the word {actually the phrase} I thought I heard in the Odetta record and TV segment was was 'rocky road'.
Bess Lomax Hawes writes that this is an adaptation of British song "Green grow the rushes, oh". Though Hawes didn't say so, it appears that "Roxie" {a girl's personal nickname or name from "Roxanne"} and "Rocky Road" are examples of folk etymology.
BTW, I checked the DT under that title and also under 'Green Fields Roxie' and didn't get any hits.
While "Oh Green Field, Roxie" isn't a put-down rhyme and may actually 'belong' in the thread on African American secular folk songs, I don't have a problem with including the words to that children's game song in this thread.
"Step It Down",
Bessie Jones & Bess Lomax Hawes, pp. 74-75
Lead Singer Group Voices
Oh green fields. Roxie
Oh green fields. Roxie
Tell me who you love, Roxie
Tell me who you love, Roxie
{Lead voice solo}
Ph Miss {Mabel}your
name is called,
Come take as seat right side
your love,
Shake his hand and let him go
Don't let him sit in that chair
no more.
Notes from book "..When accompanied by a solid offbeat clap, thiscan be the most jazzily rhythnic of all Mrs Jones' plays.
Form: Ring of children standing and clapping. In the middle of the ring is a chair with a player sitting in it. The 'caller' who leads the singing, stands by the chair.
[first line & second line] All players clap
[third line] caller leans over to player in the chair, who
whisper the name of another player to the caller
Directions given for lead voice solo:
Caller sings the whispered name.
Player called struts to chair, shakes hands eith player in chair
and sits down. First player dances back to the ring and the game is repeated without pause."
As you can see the performance instruction for version of the song is much different than what I remember from the television segment that I saw.
FWIW, I don't recall this game at all from my childhood. And I have never seen it performed or mentioned among African American children in the Pittsburgh, Penn. area {1969-2005}.

- By-law 2019-100 be revised with the Stormwater Fee By-law as outlined in Appendix A of the staff report
- That to promote resiliency during emergencies and extreme weather events, the City supports partial undergrounding of rear lot electrical services by Alectra and the OEB. If rate-based funding is approved by the OEB in the future, staff are requested to report back to Council on Alectra's plans
- That staff advise Council annually on possible smaller additional projects to add to the Flood Control Program (e.g., similar to the Private Plumbing Protection Rebate Program), with their recommendations including Stormwater Fee impacts
September 9, 2015 – Council Meeting
Staff presented a memorandum on the deferred report from the June 15, 2015, meeting on September 9, 2015, to the Mayor and Council. The memo summarized the follow-up discussion with Markham Board of Trade and included additional background information shared in relation to Staff recommendations on the Stormwater Fee.
Key resolutions included:
6. Billing of the annual Stormwater Fee for Non-residential property classes commence in 2016 at a rate of $29 per $100,000 of Current Value Assessment (CVA),
7. Billing of the annual Stormwater Fee for vacant land properties commence in 2016 at a rate of $29 per $100,000 of CVA,
8. Any property with a CVA of less than $100,000 shall not have a Stormwater Fee imposed upon it, and
9. By-law 2014-168 be revised with the Stormwater Fee By-law as outlined in Appendix A of the staff report
June 15, 2015 – Council Meeting
The City held a Council meeting to present an update to the Stormwater Fee non-residential consultation and City-wide implementation. The purpose of the meeting was to summarize the results and feedback from the communication engagement with the business community, summarize the evaluation of the billing system and communicate other recommended changes to the Stormwater Fee. Resolutions on the implementation of the fee were deferred to the September 16, 2015, Council meeting with the expectation that Staff meet with the Markham Board of Trade to discuss distribution of fee options in further detail and to identify a mutually agreeable approach.
April 9 and April 14, 2015 – Business Consultation Meetings
The City held two meetings to obtain input from non-residential property owners on the various options for distributing their share (40%) of the City-wide Markham Flood Control Program costs. Owners and managers of non-residential properties (such as stores, businesses and offices) were encouraged to attend this dedicated consultation session to learn more about the program and to provide feedback on options for distributing fees to these properties. In the review of options, the Council-approved fee of $21 per $100,000 of Current Value Assessment (CVA) per non-residential property was identified as best meeting the Principles of Payment which are: 1) ability to pay, 2) equity/fairness in relation to runoff and 3) ease of administration and communication.
November 25, 2014 – Status Update on Implementation of Stormwater Fee
A presentation and report on Stormwater Fee implementation, billing system considerations, and feedback from the non-residential sector was made at the General Committee meeting held on November 17, 2014. Resolutions at the following Council meeting (November 25, 2014) included that the approved Stormwater Fee of $47 per residential property be included on the property tax bill effective 2015, and that the November 26, 2013 Council resolution be amended to include all properties in the City of Markham in Stormwater Fee billing. It was also resolved that implementation of the non-residential Stormwater Fee be delayed to 2016 until completion of the communication engagement process with the business community. This consultation is intended to seek input on methods of apportioning the non-residential share (40%) of the City-wide Markham Flood Control Program costs to non-residential properties.

Man on brain tumour drugs, booze kicks cop in arrest-struggle
A BUNDABERG man who kicked a police officer while being forced into a paddy wagon has been sentenced to three months in prison.
Michael James Davies, 27, on Thursday pleaded guilty in Bundaberg Magistrates Court to assaulting and obstructing police and driving on a suspended licence.
On March 21, officers were walking the father of two to a police vehicle when a struggle began. Magistrate Belinda Merrin was told police had attended the Moore Park Beach address on unrelated matters.
As he was escorted, Davies pulled away from officers and yelled he'd done nothing wrong. Police then tried to force him inside the vehicle by pushing him through the paddy wagon doorway. In response, Davies kicked one of the officers hard in the chest.
Police released capsicum spray on Davies to subdue him.
As a result, the Queensland Ambulance Service was called and treated Davies at the watch-house.
A few months later, the 27-year-old was pulled over on Murdoch Rd, where he was caught on a suspended licence.
Defence lawyer Rian Dwyer told the court his client was drunk at the time of the assault and had also been adversely affected by Panadeine Forte and other prescribed medications.
He said Davies had been diagnosed with a brain tumour about one year ago and also suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder.
Because his history included similar offences for which he had been sentenced to imprisonment, Ms Merrin said a jail term was the "only appropriate order".
Davies was sentenced to three months' prison for assault and one month for obstruction, both suspended for nine months.
He was also fined $400, given community service and disqualified from driving for two years.
Convictions were recorded.

On last Wednesday, we celebrated Ash Wednesday. Ash Wednesday is the first day of Lent and marks the beginning of a time of repentance and consecration. Repentance means to turn away. In a spiritual context, it is a turning away from sin and a turning to God. As I Repent, it means I turn 180o; I do an about face. For example, if I were traveling north, to repent means I would turn around and begin to travel south. Consecration means to dedicate to God. To consecrate means to make holy or sacred. To be separated for God's exclusive use. As I consecrate myself, I acknowledge that I am setting myself apart from this world and the evil things of this world because I belong to God.
Our theme for Lent 2019 is, "Journey With Jesus: Miracle by Miracle" I am challenging you to spend quality and quantity time with God over the next 40 days as you repent of the wrong that you have done, and consecrate yourself to Him. The season of Lent is customarily accompanied with fasting. I am challenging us to spend these days fasting – that is, giving something up. It is your choice what you choose to fast and how you choose to do it. However, what you fast should be something that you like or enjoy. You may choose to fast something once a week, once a day, one meal, or you may choose to fast it from now until Resurrection Sunday. When you feel a desire to have what you are fasting, that becomes a significant opening to spend that time in prayer. In essence, you are replacing what you are fasting with prayer and time with God.
Additionally, more than fasting and just giving up certain things for the 40 days of Lent, I encourage us to use the next 40 days to strip and cleanse ourselves of anything ungodly and/or unhealthy. I encourage us to make life-long, lifestyle changes to produce overall, holistic health and well-being (spiritually, mentally, emotionally, physically, dietary, etc.). Say this to yourself, "For the 40 days of Lent, I have an opportunity to practice living without what I have been led to give up. After not having it for the 40 days, I know that I can live without it forever. Therefore, I have the opportunity to use the season of Lent to remove something destructive or unnecessary from my life."
During this season of Lent, we are suspending our Wednesday night and Thursday afternoon Bible Studies and encouraging everyone to attend the Lenten Services. I have previously shared that Bible Study is primarily learning about God, and Worship Service is primarily spending time with God. Please take advantage of the additional opportunities for intimacy with God through worship. I also challenge us to set aside time each day to have our own private time of worship with God: Sing a song or two. Read a scripture passage from the Bible. Meditate upon the scripture passage. Listen for God to speak with you and reveal to you God's thoughts concerning you, and plans for you.
To assist you in spending quality and quantity time with God for this season of Lent, each Sunday you will receive a weekly Lenten Devotional based upon our theme for Lent 2019: "Journey With Jesus: Miracle by Miracle." During this season of Lent, we will journey with Jesus through every miracle recorded in the Gospels. I pray that this journey will remind us of what God has done, encourage us in what God is doing and inspire us towards a greater expectation of what God can do, and more importantly, will do.

Which one of the purposes is to offer a varied range of products across the different companies that constitute it :
- Atalante
- Cabilux

Created in 2003, Mosaic is the first Moroccan consortium gathering together textile majors.
Based in Casablanca, Mosaic has been born from the will of joining forces in order to offer its partners proactive solutions for permanent improvement.
The Consortium's approach is based on:
- Experience emulation and sharing: the six companies playing a leader's role ones for the others.
- Synergies and economies of scale realized thanks to common actions such as searching partnerships abroad, putting purchasing and sourcing in common, strategic analysis and common staff trainings for staff members of different companies.
- Monitoring and benchmarking at all levels: Commercial, technological, HR… Every company being responsible for a pole ("Training" pole for Interlinge).
- A common pavilion for promotion and exportation.
Mosaic is also ethics:
- Transparency
- Respecting customers, providers and partners
And a shared vision of the company: Mosaic members commit themselves to have the same approach for social development through permanent training of their staff.

"Stop-Loss" is the story of a decorated young soldier who returns to Texas with members of his Army unit after fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq, watches in anguish as his friends go to pieces, and then becomes disgusted and revolts. Stationed in Tikrit at the end of his second tour, Staff Sergeant Brandon King (Ryan Phillippe), perhaps twenty-five years old, lost some of his men in a combat operation that also killed a few civilians who inadvertently got in the way. He's torn up inside, and by the time he gets home he's had enough. Yet the Army invokes "stop-loss"—a loophole in his contract which can send him, at the command of the President, back to Iraq. A natural leader of his men, the Sergeant nevertheless bolts for the open road. Directed by Kimberly Peirce (her first feature film since the remarkable 1999 "Boys Don't Cry"), "Stop-Loss" is not a great movie, but it's forceful, effective, and alive, with the raw, mixed-up emotions produced by an endless war—a time when the patriotism of military families is in danger of being exploited beyond endurance. This movie may become the central coming-home-from-the-war story of this period, just as "The Best Years of Our Lives," made in 1946, became central to the period after the Second World War. Like that extraordinary work, "Stop-Loss" is devoted to the men's hidden wounds—the wired-up tensions and nightmares that lead to drunkenness, fights, smashed love affairs and marriages. Throughout the Second World War, Hollywood made dozens of patriotic combat films, as well as occasional home-front movies (like "Tender Comrade," with Ginger Rogers) about gallant wives. The Korean War, except for B-movies by Samuel Fuller and Joseph H. Lewis, went undramatized until it was over, and this was largely true of the Vietnam War, too. During all these wars, none of the discomforts of the returning soldier, or the dismay of his friends and family, were shown on the screen.
Most of the recent feature films about Iraq ("Rendition," "Lions for Lambs," "Redaction") have not been very good, and the public has stayed away from them. But audiences ignored Paul Haggis's sternly beautiful and moving "In the Valley of Elah," too. Something more than the usual resistance to "tough" subjects may be hurting these movies. The Bush Administration told us that we were waging a war for our survival, but it also suggested that most of us needn't make sacrifices or even learn much about the conflict. Then again, some people may be so angered by the war that they don't want to be confronted by it as entertainment. But Kimberly Peirce, whose younger brother has served in Iraq, has conceived her picture in popular terms that won't be easy to ignore. Except for a few enraged sentiments that Brandon unloads on his commanding officer, "Stop-Loss" is not overtly critical of the war, but the way it uses the soldiers' experience is inherently political. Peirce plays the antiwar game fairly. Indeed, she plays it as if she were a soldier herself. She trained for this movie: a few years ago, obsessed with what her brother was going through, she began filming interviews with soldiers and watching the footage that some of them had shot with tiny cameras mounted on their rifles or Humvees. When she heard about men going AWOL after receiving a stop-loss order, she had her story. The movie, which she developed with the novelist and TV producer Mark Richard, is a complicated love letter to American soldiers—and to young American men in general, whose minds Peirce has tried, in a way, to enter before.
In "Boys Don't Cry," a young woman named Teena Brandon (Hilary Swank) cuts her hair into a butch crew, flattens her breasts, and puts on boys' clothes. Sporting the name Brandon Teena, she swaggers into the bars of Falls City, Nebraska, as a young dude—an utterly mad experiment, for which she pays a horrible price. Peirce is still trying to imagine a young man's emotions, and she held on to the name Brandon for her new hero. "Brandon," or at least this Brandon, may represent some essence for her, as if all American manhood were poured into a pair of Army fatigues. Brandon King is a strong guy with his head screwed on right, and he's not a stiff—his temper flares easily enough. But he doesn't have much humor or individuality. The blond, blue-eyed Ryan Phillippe, starting with his small role in "Crash," has been trying to lose the stud-cherub look of his early screen appearances, and he has toughened up. In "Stop-Loss," he squares his jaw, mostly hides his handsome smile, and throws his body into everything, as if he felt invulnerable. Phillippe gives an intelligent and physically dynamic performance, but he's stuck playing an exemplar who has to carry on his shoulders the weight of all the contradictions facing an American soldier today. He never says anything idiosyncratic or strange; he says only what you'd expect him to. Nor does Phillippe do anything as an actor that could be called entirely his. He's Everyman as rebel.
The other soldiers, among them Steve (Channing Tatum), who feels comfortable only within the ordering discipline of the Army, and Tommy (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), who has lost parts of his sanity and his soul in combat, are treated by Peirce with both respect and grief. Surely no male director has gone further into the hair-trigger anger and pathos of the American warrior caste. Again and again, the men get into brawls—in their heads and in their bodies, they're still in combat mode. Given a hero's welcome, in a fictional town near Austin, they hold back from rejoining the community. Tommy is married, and Steve is about to be, but they get so drunk and crazy that the women throw them out, and they wind up lounging around with each other and with Brandon, at a ranch that his parents own. The intimacy that the men share is much stronger than their feelings for women, and Tommy, in a bitter episode, props up his wedding presents on a stump and uses them for target practice. Emotionally, this is the most complicated scene Peirce has ever attempted: it expresses a profane contempt for domesticity, mixed with fear and self-loathing.
In a kind of prologue, Peirce tells how the men got this way. In Tikrit, Brandon and his unit chase a gunman in a car into an alley, where snipers are waiting on rooftops. The combat is brief, vicious, and bloody—a series of jolts and explosions, a frightening pursuit into a house—and several Americans are wounded or killed. Even when the picture moves to Texas, Peirce keeps us unsettled. The soldiers in "Stop-Loss" have made Iraq videos, too, which are like excruciating experimental films—a rapid flash of terror and "relaxed" moments that seem only slightly less frantic than battle. These high-stress episodes, which the film jumps back to many times, are just an extreme version of the way Peirce and her cinematographer, the great Chris Menges ("The Killing Fields"), shoot many of the home-front scenes. As the men squabble and scrap, the filmmakers charge into the center of the action with a handheld camera. The staging is often casual, and some good lines of dialogue may have got chewed up in the hyperkinetic acting and filming. I like "Stop-Loss" best when it calms down—say, when Brandon explains to Michele (Abbie Cornish), a tough country woman who is an old friend and also Steve's would-be wife, why he can't fight anymore, and why he can't escape his life in the military, either.
