Do you get your own username and password when signing into practice computers? Sick of always being signed in under various combinations of 'LOCUM1/DRL/LARRYLOCUM'? Perplexed as to how it's your first time at the practice but looks like you (DRLOCUM) have seen this patient twice already this month? Irritated because you can't work out who all the other freelance GPs are who've already seen this patient? Demoralised for not having the fundamental means for recording auditable medical notes? Struck off for never having officially been enabled to record a consultati…OK, you get the idea.
Secret passwords and usernames are essential to working as a GP – recording contemporaneous medical information in the patient's notes is a vital part of clinical management; and a medico-legal requirement. And if your password isn't secret, and call me paranoid, someone else could falsify records in your name. So how come freelance GPs are so rarely given their own? Come on chaps, stand your ground and insist on one! Some of the clinical systems are pretty easy to set up, whereas others aren't. For example, the procedure for setting up passwords on Microtest can be quite tricky. So we've been working with them (and what nice people they are) to make the procedure easier.
@NASGP Huge risk area. I had my name signed to referral letter for a pt I'd never seen. V diff to ensure audit trail in such a setting...

—Reconcile—Make Disciples—Live the Mission— September
Bringing the Priority Plan to life at home and in the community
—Reconcile—Make Disciples—Live the Mission—
Reconciliation and Communities
Two Envisioning Team members were asked what has to happen before we can genuinely invite others to experience the good news of God's love through an encounter with Jesus. Fr. Christopher Johnson, Pine Ridge, said, "We need to recognize that we have failed in love, and we need to believe that God, who is love, came among us as one of us to share the good news and that despite our failures, we can, in any moment, discover how we have gone astray, correct course, and step into the kingdom of God. We then need to see others as we see ourselves, as loved sinners longing for communion."
Fr. Steve Biegler, Rapid City, said. "One thing we need to realize is our mission to be 'church' is inviting others to experience the good news.
"We have gained some ground in that territory, we are getting people to understand that our mission is to evangelize and reach out. We are helping people see that a parish is a mission center — I think that's an image used by Pope Francis.
"If we are going to invite them here they have to have a place to land that they feel is welcoming and safe. Obviously that means a place of hospitality.
"A lot of people don't see themselves as people who invite, welcome or evangelize.
"My experience in the last several years, is that for people who are unchurched or who are not regular in a Catholic faith journey, the Mass is too much for them.
"I would say before we can genuinely invite people we need another place for them to enter. We have to explore that, another experience of prayer and liturgy that might not be the Mass. It might be an adoration experience or healing service. But we need to figure out some of the language from the Making Disciples workshop; we need a 'lower threshold.'
"I've found, for example, that couples who come for marriage or baptism instruction, are exploring, but not sure they want full participation. They need an in between step."
The priests also considered how our core values need to influence the way we work towards reconciliation in the church and local communities.
Father Johnson said, "Through prayer we find ourselves loved and called to love. Through prayer we find ourselves children of God, surrounded by brothers and sisters. In the sufferings of our brothers and sisters, we find that we too suffer, and our hearts reach out in love. When our families pray and foster care for one another, reconciliation happens. In seeing all people as children of God, as brothers and sisters, this reconciliation can extend throughout the world."
Father Biegler added, "Everyone on the Envisioning Team was convinced that prayer is the most valuable place to start. The work of prayer, which is a spiritual work, is integral to the success of any ministry in the church. I always tell people who come to confession, and need reconciliation with someone, to pray for that person. Pray for the grace you need for yourself. God can work something through prayer in ways that we could never work.
"Many people who say in confession, 'I know God forgives me, I can't forgive myself.' Then, they are not receiving God's forgivenesss. We aren't very good at receiving mercy and I don't think they really believe in Christ's mercy."
"Solidarity is a really strong value for being a brother or sister toward everyone, we think of reconciliation with people who have hurt us, we might not think of people we may have ignored, immigrants, unborn, elderly, and other races."
Making Disciples with Prayer
The Mass is the source and summit of becoming disciples ourselves, so we can go out to make disciples of others. Fr. Michel Mulloy, an Envisioning Team Member from McLaughlin, said, "Being a disciple of Jesus requires spending time with the Master. Spending time with Jesus can take many forms, but there is no substitute for praying the Mass. The Mass is Jesus' self-surrender to God the Father through the Holy Spirit. As we celebrate Mass, we join with Jesus and learn over and over how to live our discipleship."
Father Mulloy also explained that being in love with Christ forms the basis of our desire to spread his Gospel.
"When I love someone, the loved one is the source of my activity and the end of all I do. I want others to know the one who has captured my heart. When I love the Lord, then I want to spread the good news of who he is to everyone I meet so that they can come to know and love him as well."
The practice of loving Christ inspires a conversion of hearts and minds. At the Cathedral of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, Rapid City, Stephanie Hatley joined the Catholic Church at Easter Vigil. She said, "My conversion was an entire mind, body, and soul transformation. From my daily thought patterns and attitude, to my physical health, to my heart's deepest desires, I am literally a new creation."
Hatley works as a cleaning lady. She began getting several new clients who were Catholic. She talked to them about church doctrine and started researching things on her own. Two of her clients she said were particularly influential, Courtney and Nancy Lien. Courtney served as her sponsor going through RCIA.
"I was trying to cope with the wounds of an absent father, I spent 14 years searching for love and happiness in the world. I lived a noisy life, desperately seeking the approval of others, while attempting to mask the pain and guilt with alcohol and drugs," Hatley said.
She continued, "God captivated me with his mercy. As my heart began to embrace what Jesus endured for us, my life rapidly began to change. My addictions and bad habits fell away. I began to love my work, appreciate my family, and have a profound desire to live life God's way.
"In search of the truth, led by prayer, I came in to full communion with the Catholic Church. It is through His church I have been able to experience the grace and mercy I have needed all my life," said Hatley.
Living Our Faith
In living the mission of the church and diocese, first we need to recognize that all people, at all stages of life, are important. Sue Jimmerson, Rapid City, has been active for many years with the Pro-Life Commission, which subsequently became the Social Justice Commission.
Jimmerson said, "As Catholics and Christians we believe that human life is a gift from God, each person is created in God's image and thus deserving of care and protection. Our challenge is to promote human dignity, extending from conception, through all situations in life, until natural death.
"Unfortunately, our culture can reduce the value of a human person to an arbitrary standard that can change through laws like Roe v. Wade or assisted suicide legislation. A utilitarian view looks only at how a life would benefit others, e.g. embryonic stem cell research, the buying and selling of unborn baby parts, pornography, sex or labor trafficking, unjust wages.
Jimmerson has worked with many inter-denominational and secular groups promoting the dignity of life over the years.
"We don't need religion to recognize that fetal development is part of the wondrous progression of human life; that poverty, unsafe living conditions, and lack of food or medical care are detrimental; or that abortion and assisted suicide are violence. Advancements in science and increased knowledge of conditions that hinder or degrade life can form our thinking and actions. There are even national atheist groups which have become involved in supporting pro-life causes.
"For example, young pro-life pagans participated in the Texas March for Life this year; Secular Pro-Life defends life in blogs and on college campuses; and Pro-Life Humanists are defenders of the marginalized and champions of human life."
She continued, "In S.D., there are many secular or non-religious groups that affirm the dignity of human life and strive to protect it. We could not have made progress in promoting pro-life causes without uniting with such groups. Christian faiths and those with no religious faith have worked to limit Planned Parenthood's work in Rapid City; with a civic group in Lead to ban nude dancing and adult-oriented business advertising; and with various groups on state legislation. These have always been inspirational and dynamic alliances. Today, the Social Justice Commission and parish groups help promote or aid pro-life efforts by Habitat for Humanity, Fair Trade, Right to Life, and Family Heritage Alliance."
Being pro-life means more than just advocating on behalf of life, it means lending a helping hand. At Catholic Social Services, Family Services Supervisor, Natalie Lecy works with the Uplifting Parents Program. It is a coalition of more than 30 Rapid City social service agencies combining resources to lift single parents out of poverty.
Started in April 2014, the program has nine graduates and 14 current participants working on a degree or learning skills that will allow them to provide a better life for themselves and their children.
Lecy said, "This program is so near and dear to my heart. You are working in the trenches with folks doing everything they can to raise their family out of poverty and to create a life for their kids that most of them never had themselves.
"I've been doing social work for over 10 years and this is one of the most inspiring programs to work with. You see close to immediate change when people are accepted into the program. They receive scholarship and stipend money, often times they can put their children in childcare or enroll in an education program that they never thought they'd be able to go into."
The program helps with needs like: tuition, books, transportation, housing, and childcare. Applicants must have a concrete goal and a workable time line. "We try to provide wrap-around support for the entire family. If you are coming from generational poverty and you don't have a support system it's easy to fall through the cracks," she said.
—Reconcile—Deacon Greg Sass, Retuning Catholics Program, Call 939-0579
The Returning Catholic Program is a series of six classes for people who have been away from the church and are interested in returning. Deacon Sass sees it as stewardship — an ongoing invitation that calls for making room for others.
He said to welcome someone who has been away from the church, first meet him or her where they are. He advises asking if there is anything they would like you to pray about in their life. "That can be such a simple little thing and it is easy to do," he said.
In the Book of Matthew it says, "knock, and it shall be opened unto you." Deacon Sass sees himself standing by the door, inviting people in and answering their questions. "I may not know the answer to every question; however, I tell them I will find it for them," he said. Keeping Jesus in mind, he does not chide them for not attending Mass. He looks at their struggles and compares them to areas where he himself has struggled.
"Most of the people who attend are divorced. I had one person come through the program because people asked her why she came to church — she was a divorcee. She left the church because others did not understand the church's teachings," said Deacon Sass.
"It is important for everyone to know and keep studying our faith. The education on church teaching is the real benefit of this program. It is giving them that information in a non-threatening way and helping them with mercy and forgiveness," he said.
—Make Disciples—Adoration
The Envisioning Team determined prayer is the first value. Adoration is praying in front of the Blessed Sacrament. According to Valarie Brown, Faith, Adoration is held after Friday morning daily Masses.The parish started it when (the late) Fr. Brian Fawcett served the parish in the 90s. Brown's husband, Deacon Larry Brown, was instrumental in getting it started. She said it was originally a time to pray for vocations and the parish has had a two men go to the seminary to discern a vocation.
"Adoration is a call to spend time with Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. It's a different kind of prayer. You might say your daily prayers quickly and go on with your day. This is a time of quiet," said Brown. She said she gets a sense of peace and quiet. "It's a time you can ask God for things in a more personal way," said Brown.
Deacon Ray Klein, Belle Fourche, said, "Adoration is being alone with Jesus. We know Jesus is in the church. We should know He is in everybody we meet, but we don't.
"Adoration is calming, it seems you go in there with your problems and just sit — sometimes the prayer is just to sit there and look — sometimes the answers or solutions to a problem just pop into your head," he said.
—Live the Mission—John Litenberg, Love INC., (Love In the Name of Christ) 718-5683
"Everything Love INC., does is a shared ministry of our area churches coming together and giving parishioners an opportunity to put their faith to work. They don't have to create a roll, its already there for them to step into," he said.
The main office is in Rapid City and this year Love INC., is also working in Sturgis.
"We have a lot of individual volunteers and church congregations involved. Classes are taught by volunteers or organizations. The night starts out with a meal provided by an area church, and there is child care provided for adult classes," said Litenberg.
He said word of mouth is a powerful way to attract people to their programs. "For instance, Catholic Social Services has excellent parenting classes.They are pulling in people through their organization. We are pulling people in through ours. We are doing what we can to promote brother agencies."
One of the programs under development is "Thrive" an outdoor adventure resale store. The store will be an employment opportunity for youth that will include mentoring in job and life skills. The program will also have walking, biking and running events.
Fall classes: Financial Freedom; Bridges to Freedom, Star Quilting 101; Strengthening Families, Common Sense Parenting, Concerned Persons Study, Jobs Class, Nutrition on a Budget, Christianity Explored, Rebuild Your Broken World, Marriage, Stepping into Freedom, and Storyline: Live a better story.

Have you started orthodontic treatment recently? Are you having a little trouble getting used to your braces? If so, you are not alone: Everybody goes through an adjustment period during which they momentarily wonder if they'll really ever get used to this. Don't worry — you will! And we've never heard anyone say, on the day their braces come off and their new smile is revealed, that they aren't glad they went the distance. Just ask Houston Rockets all-star center Dwight Howard, who discussed his own orthodontic treatment in a recent interview.
"I'm sure I was no different than anyone else who has ever had braces," he told Mediaplanet. "At first I hated them so much… That changed once I got used to them and I actually grew to love them." What's Howard's advice? "Do exactly what your orthodontist says and know that the outcome is well worth it in the end." We couldn't agree more! Here are some tips for wearing braces comfortably:
- Hard & Chewy Foods: If you love fresh fruits and vegetables, that's great; there's no reason to give them up, just the really hard ones. You don't want to bite into an apple or carrot or any other hard foods like bagels and pizza that have any "size" to them. Small pieces may be ok as long as they can't bend your wires. Chewy, sticky candy should really be avoided completely. Same with soda, sports drinks and so-called energy drinks because they contain acids that promote tooth decay and can cause a lot of damage around the braces.
- Effective Oral Hygiene: Keeping your teeth clean is more important than ever, but also more challenging than ever. It's easy for food to get stuck under wires and around brackets, but failing to remove it can cause tooth decay, gum irritation and soreness. Therefore, the cleaner your teeth and your braces are, the healthier you will be. Use interdental cleaning brushes and/or a floss-threader to get behind your wires. A mouthrinse can also help strengthen teeth and keep bacteria in check. If you have any questions about how to clean between your teeth, please ask for a demonstration at your next visit.
- Pain Relief: Some soreness at the beginning of orthodontic treatment is normal. To relieve it, you can use an over-the-counter pain reliever and/or a warm washcloth or heating pad placed on the outside of the jaw. If brackets or wires are rubbing against the inside of your cheeks or lips, try applying wax to these areas of your braces. If this does not offer enough relief, we may be able to trim the end of a poking wire. Call us if you need help with this.
Our goal is to make your orthodontic treatment as comfortable as possible on the way to achieving your all-star smile. If you have questions about adjusting to braces, contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can learn more by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Caring for Teeth During Orthodontic Treatment."
Regular dental visits are just as important for healthy teeth and gums as daily brushing and flossing. Not only will these visits reduce the amount of hidden or hard to reach bacterial plaque (the main source of dental disease), but they'll also boost the chances problems with teeth and gums are caught early and treated.
A lifetime habit of dental visits should begin around your child's first birthday, but children can be stressed or even frightened by trips to the dentist. This could stick with them, causing them to avoid regular dental visits when they become adults. The absence of professional dental care could prove hazardous to their dental health.
Here then are some things you can do to "de-stress" your child's dental visits.
Begin and sustain regular visits early. By not waiting a few years after age one, your child has a better chance of viewing it and subsequent visits as a normal part of life.
Choose a "kid-friendly" dentist. A pediatric dentist is trained not only for dental issues specific to children, but also in creating a comfortable environment for them. Some general dentists are also skilled with children, taking the time to talk and play with them first to ease any anxiety.
Stay calm yourself. Perhaps you've discovered, often in an embarrassing fashion, that your children are watching you and taking cues on how to act and react. Be sure then to project a sense of ease and a "nothing to this" attitude, rather than nervousness or anxiety. Your child will follow your lead.
Set the example. Speaking of following your lead, your children will intuitively pick up whether you're serious about your own dental health, which could influence them. So be sure you practice what you preach: daily oral hygiene, a dental-friendly diet and, of course, your own regular visits to the dentist. Your actions about your own dental care really will speak louder than words.
If you would like more information on effective dental care for your child, please contact us or schedule an appointment for a consultation. You can also learn more about this topic by reading the Dear Doctor magazine article "Taking the Stress out of Dentistry for Kids."

Trios Champions The Reptile Tribe def. Sammy Guevara, Ivelisse & XO Lishua and The Reptile Tribe in a Three-Way Tag Team Elimination Match
These trios matches tend to be a recurring highlight in Lucha Underground and this was no different as all three teams put forth an excellent effort and contested a highly entertaining affair. The elimination stipulation was a nice touch and this was all action from bell to bell. The Reptile Tribe remain the champions, so we'll who steps up in Season 5 as the next challengers.
Taya def. Ricky Mundo
Taya wanted revenge after Ricky ordered Matanza Cueto to wreck her wedding. This never had much potential to be an instant classic, so I was happy they took a simpler approach instead with Taya largely dominating Ricky and picking up the decisive victory. Afterward, she took it one step further by putting Ricky through a table, seemingly putting the rivalry to rest.
Son of Havoc def. Killshot in a Mask vs. Mask Match
These two have had history since the start of the season, so it was awesome for the feud to come full circle at Ultima Lucha with them battling in a Mask vs. Mask match. Havoc and Killshot have tremendous chemistry together and this was an excellent match. The storytelling in particular was on point with both guys going to great lengths to put the other away and the intensity was also appreciated. The post-match angle with Killshot unmasking and Havoc showing respect to him was well done and it looks like Killshot's time in Lucha Underground has come to an end based off the sendoff he received.
Overall Show
Ultima Lucha Cuatro is off to a strong start. The festivities kicked off on a high note with the Trios title match which was exciting and an absolute blast, Taya vs. Ricky was exactly what it needed to be as a glorified squash, and the high-stakes main event was outstanding and is well worth a watch. It'll be sad for Lucha Underground to go back on hiatus after next week, but at least they'll be closing out the season with a bang.

Spring is okay. But I love the fall.
You can have your in-like-a-lion months. For me, the world comes back to life when football and the baseball playoffs start. When campaigns of all sorts start heating up. When the kids are really getting into the groove of the new school year. When the mornings are a little cooler and a little crisper. And when ragweed is whipping me just like it did this time last year.
The best sign of the new season is Liz's birthday. We did that last Sunday.
Don't look here for jokes about age. Those jokes tend to be on me.
After all these years, Liz still looks younger than me (although she isn't, but that's all I'm going to say about that).
There was more good news this week besides Liz's birthday. I was honored to make the League of Conservation Voters' list of best legislators.
In announcing the recognition, the League cited two pieces of legislation – my "No Regrets" climate change bill, which would have required the state to identify strategies to reduce greenhouse gases that would save money or cost nothing; and my proposal to reduce toxic pollutants in Texas school buses.
While both of these proposals made it out of the Senate, neither became law. Rest assured, both of these are toward the top of my priority list as I prepare my agenda for the next legislative session in 2009. Sensible proposals such as these protect not just the environment, but also our health, our economy, and our prosperity. The Legislature should be passing more of these kinds of bills.
I wrote last week about a speech I gave on education, and the fact that Texas needs to be doing a lot more to take care of its kids and its future.
The risks we all face for failing to meet that mandate and mission are on full, tragic display right here in Austin, where the school district and the community are working to find a way to keep Johnston High School open.
It's hard for most of us to imagine a crisis that stark, but that's what this East Austin community faces. Test scores have remained so low for so long that the state could legally close Johnston, scattering its students among other schools.
Thankfully, the state has given Johnston another chance to show that it's giving students there a legitimate opportunity to excel and go to college. And I'm hosting a community forum on Tuesday for students and parents to learn more about what's going on at the school, and what the district will do about it.
Members of the Austin School Board, Education Commissioner Robert Scott, and Higher Education Commissioner Raymund Paredes are all expected to attend, as well.
The problems at Johnston, and for its students and their parents, are so deeply rooted and complex that it's hard for many of us to even fathom them. I imagine – I hope – that most of you don't need to worry about such things day in and day out. That's a blessing. Be grateful for it.
But while you may feel removed from Johnston, you should still know what's happening there. It should still concern you greatly – not just because our next generation of citizens is losing its best shot at prosperity and productivity, but also because the dilemmas this school presents really aren't unique.
Texas leads the nation in all kinds of bad educational statistics: the fewest adults over 25 with a high school diploma, the bottom five in SAT scores, the bottom 10 in per-student spending . . . The list goes on.
Our problems won't go away, even if Johnston does.
However, if we can fix this campus – if we can make it a place where children can legitimately expect to learn what they'll need to know to succeed in the 21st Century economy – then we can take those lessons to address similarly troubled schools across the state.
Not only that, but we can start to tackle the roots of our dismal education statistics and rankings. We can graduate more Texans who are truly prepared to work good jobs, start companies, and provide the innovation that we'll need to compete with other states and nations. And we can save untold millions of dollars that now go into prisons, health care, law enforcement, and any number of other issues that spin off of our education problems.
All of these challenges connect to each other, just as they connect all of us who live with them. We must solve them together. I thank you for your interest and support as our community tries to do just that.

Feliz martes.!! Happy Tuesday.!! Just when I thought the weather was getting better in Chicago, we got more snow.!! Everyone thought it was only going to be a dusting. But mother nature had other plans. It was a full five inches of snow and of course it ruined morning rush hour.! Oh well…shoulder shrug…welcome to Chicago.! I hear nicer weather is in our future, so I'm still holding out hope. At least, I had a nice weekend 🙂 There were tasty beverages and strawberries involved so all is right with the world.!
In this week's Corona commercial, our faithful beer drinkers are making the best out of not being near a beautiful Mexican beach. Like the rest of us, including me, they found their own "beach". Have a great week everyone.! Enjoy.! Y salud.!!

Pleasant Pheasant Fantasies and Other Knitting Fables
Lisette's new winter hoodie allowed her to indulge in some pleasant pheasant fantasy role playing, at least for awhile, until the unfortunate eye-gouging incident.
Sometimes Vera liked to put on everything she'd ever made for herself and just sit and feel herself becoming one with her knitting.
Bill was so proud of the new archery vest he'd made Ted didn't have the heart to tell him wearing a bull's eye to target practice wasn't the smartest idea.
Candra loved yarn so much, she shaved her head and had some roving implanted into her scalp. She'd heard people say she should have used some of that yarn to make a little more dress, but she put that down to spite and malice.
When Daphne's free form crochet project didn't turn into a dress as she'd hoped, she glued it to a dress. When it seemed to lack a little something, she added shoulder pads made from chair upholstery and then bought a pair of matching ankle socks. It was one of her principles to never give up on a project but just keep tweaking until it worked.
Raquel thought anything Levi Strauss & Co., could do, she could crochet better.
Raquel's twin, Raphael, didn't consider Levis very inspiring and instead liked to get naked and just start crocheting and see what happened.
Meara was determined that at least one of her ball gowns was going to keep her comfortably warm.
Violet's plan to knit herself an extra warm skirt and jacket for winter hit a snag when she underestimated her own measurements.
Carmel had never progressed beyond the knitting skill level required for the making of skinny scarves, but she didn't see why that should keep her from making herself a stunning outfit.

Atlanta, GA – September 28, 2016 – Boys & Girls Clubs of Metro Atlanta (BGCMA) is proud to announce its 2016-2017 Youth of the Year winners from local Clubs in and around the city. The prestigious Youth of the Year award is BGCMA's highest honor, recognizing teens from Clubs in the metro Atlanta area who are working hard, investing in themselves, and demonstrating leadership in their schools, Clubs, and communities.
This year, winners from 20 Boys & Girls Club locations will be honored at the annual Youth of the Year Dinner & Awards Ceremony on November 3 at the InterContinental Buckhead Atlanta Hotel. The honorees will compete for the title of Metro Atlanta Youth of the Year.

"The truths we cling to" — By The Stars scattered thoughts
There are some thoughts swirling aimlessly in my head about BTS that I haven't been able to articulate for months now. This is my first attempt. They may very well be understandable to no one but me, but that's what rough drafts are for. At least they'll be down and out of my head!
One Scene to Rule Them All
I have a very tight focus for the game I want to create this time. I want to emulate the Luke-Vader duel scene from The Empire Strikes Back. Just as WGP… sprung from the Thanksgiving dinner scene of Spider-Man, the duel will serve as BTS's guiding light. But what makes the duel so special? Why does it still capture my imagination nearly 25 years later? Let me list a few features, and then I'll talk about my ideas for putting them in a game.
"I am your father." — Sudden Character Redefinition
This is the thing that had everyone talking from the time they saw Empire until Jedi came out. "No, Luke. I am your father." The duels starts out with Luke, the Avenging Son, coming to face down Vader, the Sire-Slayer. Luke's lack of a father–as well as his desperation to follow in that unknown father's footsteps–has defined his character up until this point. To suddenly learn that those footsteps lead directly to one of the greatest cinematic villians of all time shakes Luke's character to its core.
How to do that in an RPG? My concept is for each character to have "open" spots in their character history. Things they don't know about their own past. Perhaps I'll put a grand diaspora or two into the recent past of the setting info to explain it. They can grab a bonus die for alluding to this open concept, and putting some constraint upon it. But so can other players. Whenever that happens, the open spot becomes worth another point of payout when it is defined. A player cannot define his own open concept. Only someone in conflict can define your open concept, and they get part of the payout. Kat suggests that you can set it in stone yourself, but only for half the pool.
"Join me. It is the only way." — Cutting Off Options
Look at the progress of the duel. They fight. Vader attempts to outmaneuver Luke and defeat him with technology (the carbon freezing chamber), and Luke just barely manages to dodge out of the way. Then, Vader overwhelms him with the Force. Finally, he visciously out-duels Luke and (literally) disarms him, driving him out onto a precipice where no other manuever is possible. The only way out is (seemingly) through Vader and by accepting what he offers. The only other choice is stepping off into the abyss. The fact that Luke does choose death before dishonor is the first step of redefining his character in the rest of the trilogy.
How to do that in an RPG? I think that all characters will be able to act in a number of different realms: Technology, Manuever, Melee, Ranged Combat, Social, Psychic Powers, that kind of thing. That happens to be six, so we'll use d6s. Each one is associated with a single number on the die. During a turn, each character chooses a number/method that they're using this round. They roll the dice for that method and a success is any die which matches the number of that method. Whoever gets the most successes on their own dice wins that round, and they get a number of consequence points to dole out equal to the matches of all players that round. You use these consquence points to add penalties to your opponents' traits. But, these are not penalties in the sense of decreasing their effectiveness, they are damage penalties that accrue if the opponent choose that option. And, they're not just abstract point penalties, they are "cannot" statements, much like in the character creation section of Puppetland and My Life with Master. They restrict your options. But, they can also be spent to give someone options they didn't have before….
"Father, please!" — Enhancing the Options of Others
This slides into the climax of Return of the Jedi, which is really a continuation of the Empire duel. Luke has accepted that Vader is his his father, but even though his father has fallen from the path, Luke will not. He stumbles, but rights himself, throwing his lightsaber away before the Emperor. As the Emperor begins his lethal assault, his appeals to his father allow Vader to do what he could not do previously: Strike at the Emperor.
How to do that in an RPG? Just as you can cut off options by heavily disincetivizing them, characters can spend consequence points they gain to incentivize options to others. They'll get bonus points if they do choose the option that you set up for them. Characters will have Oaths that forbid them from doing things. And they CANNOT do those things that they've voluntarily given up, unless some other character has given them this option.
This is where my thoughts drift into more abstract, less concrete stuff. In life in general, I think giving people options is generally a good thing, and cutting off their options is generally a bad thing. I see it as empowerment rather than control–call me democratic rather than authoritarian. Translating that shaky, ill-defined philosophy into game mechanics is tricky, because there will be innumerable counter-examples and players looking to gain advantage without consequence.
Tangent That's something that drives me nuts in games–advantage without consequence. One of the things I wanted WGP…'s Aspect system to do (that it doesn't do all that well) was that you couldn't gain the advantage of an Aspect unless you brought it into the conflict, and thus risked damaging it. It doesn't work so well in WGP… simply because everybody brings everything into every conflict. ::shrug:: But, in BTS, I want to bring that into play more centrally. If you use something to gain advantage over me, you give me the opportunity to affect that thing and potentially gain advantage over you.
My thoughts are all ragged now. Maybe I just need to do some self-playtesting.

Hi Mike,
What strikes me as interesting is the time of choosing. A Game where I can choose "here is where it all goes down with my father," is much different from where someone else chooses for me. The second is potentially more frustrating and more rewarding depending on the tension. For instance if I was playing with Steven King I would go on a rampage as he takes too long to get to the point, but Bachman I'd love to game with.
The Oaths strike me as problematic though. If I can't do my oath, who polices infractions, or watches against subtle ways to route around an oath, or is that a problem? I have some ideas for something I'm working on for if I ever finish my game, for a second game that is not so specific, but is more built around the difficulty of enabling Functionalism. Anyway without giving up the complete secret sauce and just the ketchup part, I think it may be better to place your control on the individual, Darth for example, rather than a can't do Oath. Then have the characters have positive Oaths like in Burning Everything, and dilemma bang them with this relationship somehow. Am I making any sense?
Also what time frame are you looking at? Having 5 people face five Darthes at the same time is likely to be a bit on the silly side. You may want to consider pacing of these confrontations. This might also help getting people to put the focus on someone elses character, if they can't get their sunshine time till yours is over.
I never asked about the shorting of Michael to Mike. Is that kosherized rules or would you prefer Michael?
Hi, Clyde!
As for policing the options, I've found that groups tend to quickly find their own standards of flexibility on these things, and consensus tends to work pretty well. Particularly because everyone will have their own "can do this/cannot do that" statements to work around, a common sense of what is acceptable should develop pretty quickly. Playtesting could show me that I'm a pie-in-the-sky dreamer, but we'll see.
Idealy, I'm hoping that in a group of 5 players, 2 of them will be antagonists for the other 3. Since all villains are eventually redeemable, and all heroes have the potential to fall from grace, I don't know that this is necessarily a "GM plays all the bad guys" sort of game. Although, perhaps the GM plays the most irredemable vilain, and a player might play one who is closest to possible redemption. (Ironically, in Empire Strikes Back, that give the GM Boba Fett and a player Darth Vader.)
"Mike" is just dandy in informal communication like LJ and interviews, etc. I only like to use "Michael S. Miller" in publishing, credits, promotion, etc. because both "Michael" and "Miller" are extremely common names.

Farmers always have something to do on their fields. But, today, I saw empty fields after the harvest. The beautiful sun kissing the empty earth was a gorgeous sight that forced me to stop and take a 'click'. Though it was morning, the fields seem to be telling me that it is asleep... asleep after a yearlong period of fertility and fruitfulness. The farmers too cannot be seen. They too have left for home...to rest and take a deep sleep only to awake late in the morning. That may be the reason why their fields are empty at this time of the day.
Today, I am a little shy about the farms and the fields. I was never a farmer ... I am never a farmer... I will never be a farmer. So I am little shy about the fields.
Empty fields are waiting for the rains across the hills. As I rode across, I saw the fast approaching rainclouds. The rolling rainclouds seem to be in a hurry to come down upon the dry earth. The clouds forced me to brake and exit from the car. The rolling dark clouds are rich with water and soon they will empty them over all these vacant fields.
The advent of the rainclouds is most welcome after a period of heat and dust. As rainclouds inaugurate monsoon with unceasing downpour, I know that my garden will not ask me for water. Come first rains, air will smell the wet earth and wind will chill the minds. Soon, dry brooks will babble all across these hills.
I am in a bamboo forest. And the last winds of the summer is making distinct notes of sound. The large bamboo trees are swinging in the wind...they are singing in the wind... they are howling and whistling. I have only read in books and heard songs about the 'whistle' in a bamboo forest. For the first time, I spent some time listening to the bamboos' whistle.
While driving though, I saw some confused birds flittering back and forth. Are they in a hurry to collect food before a big rain?
|My bamboo forest had a love story too to tell me
|As I was leaving the forest, there was one reminder that caught my attention.
I clicked that too : REGRET NOT THAT THIS PLACE WAS CALM AND CLEAN BEFORE YOUR VISIT !!

The assignment to write an article review can puzzle even a seasoned journalist so the question "What is an article review?" is pretty justified. For those who are newbies in this sphere, the terms "article summary" and "article critique" might seem to be interchangeable. After being assigned to one of these tasks, make sure to ask your supervisor, instructor, or whoever has given you this "pleasure" to clarify what exactly they would like to see. All of these tasks require repeated reading and writing up notes as in most cases these articles are difficult for comprehension and contain unfamiliar words, terms, and phrases.
So what is an article review essay? According to the definition, it is an essay where you sum up and evaluate other person's piece of writing. It presumes a critical analysis of the central theme, exploring the supporting evidence, and suggestions for further research. Accuracy is of the utmost importance for making a summary and evaluation.
Bear in mind that a review can be of two types: critical and literature. A critical review inclines to deal with a piece of writing and present an in-depth article analysis. As for a literature review, it is a part of a broader analysis. How to write a review paper is explicitly explained in the guidelines where the structure and format are described.
It does not matter whether it is an APA article review, academic article review, scientific review paper, or journal article review as all of them are the same in terms of their essence. The focal point is that it helps to detect and correct ambiguous terms and clarify questioning. What is more, the standpoints of others on the raised problems help to leave out the subjective opinion and the writer is encouraged to perform better. Last but not least, such a review comes to your aid to hone your writing skills and to facilitate critical thinking.
Article Review Format
How to apply the article review format:
- Title page
- Abstract (around 200-300 words) covers the summary of the review question, review and findings of the primary study.
- Introduction should include an identification sentence. Moreover, it somehow resembles an article review template as it covers a step-by-step outline of the article, its subtopics and the order of presenting the background information.
- Body presents the subtopics themselves.
- Conclusion covers the grounds and the purpose of your review.
- Literature cited is presented in the MLA format.
Article Review Purpose
The purpose of an article review is to summarize the content, critically evaluate the problem, and offer own insight into the problem. For doing this, it is not enough to have perfect writing skills; you should also have the in-depth knowledge of the professional field to which the article belongs. The meaning of such type of writing lies in assessing the other people's perspectives on the discussed issues that is why the validity of data and the accuracy of its comprehension could hardly be underestimated.
Article Review Structure
Students are free to approach the article review structure the way they want. Nonetheless, there are some tips and tricks, which will ease the writing process and will help to obtain better results.
- A hook is your lifeboat. A riveting sentence can be an anecdote, fascinating facts, shocking statistics, unparalleled life story, quotations from literature or life, article extract, or whatever.
- An outstanding article abstract.
- An attention-grabbing introductory paragraph and a strong thesis.
- Ensure the coherence of the writing with the use of transitional words.
- Insert direct in-text citations to support your arguments.
- Feel free to use indirect citations to present reliable statistics, salient facts, and any other information that does not need to be proved.
- Make an objective assessment of the article, paying undivided attention to disparities, contradictions, and questions left with no answer. Criticize to the fullest yet make sure to justify your standpoint.
Do not forget to discuss each argument in the separate paragraph. The world is your oyster so do not be afraid to devise an article review.

Museums are like icebergs, what you see is only a fraction of what is really there. Quarry Bank is no exception and in the unassuming rooms at the back of the Mill, which house the collection and archive, are many intriguing items.
The Drawn Out of Love exhibition has taught me a lot about artistic printing so when Ally our Collections and Archive Officer told me about our collection of over 1,500 textile printing blocks, I couldn't wait to have a look.
Beautifully designed, our collection of wooden printing blocks were used for a very different purpose to those in the exhibition. These textile printing blocks were used to print patterns onto cotton fabric, which was then exported around the world.
Most of the blocks in the collection date to the late 19th century and the influence of trade, particularly throughout what was then the British Empire, can be seen.
As you can see the blocks are designed in reverse so when dye is added and the block pressed onto the fabric, the design will appear the right way round.
The Greg family used them to identify cloth which came from Quarry Bank. This block, probably 20th century, reads R.G (for Greg) & co. Quarry Bank Mills and has the Greg family crest in the centre.
Some have elaborate designs.
Others are more practical, giving the type of cloth.
Others are carved with patterns, each block coming together with the others to build up a design.
One particularly complicated pattern is made up of 70 individual blocks, each of which states the colour to be used when printing.
While we therefore know what colour the overall pattern would have been, unfortunately they are not numbered, so we don't know what order they should go in!
Trying to piece them together would be like doing a jigsaw puzzle where the pieces look very similar and without any idea of what the final picture should look like.
I can only imagine how painstaking this kind of pattern would have been to hand print. They certainly must have had steady hands.
Blocks like this would have been used to print textiles for upholstery and the finished results may have looked something like this.
Most of the blocks were produced locally and are an important part of the textile history of the North West.
Caring for objects like these, part of our extensive archive and collection, is a very important aspect of the work the National Trust do here at Quarry Bank. I very much look forward to bringing you more behind the scenes stories.
If you feel inspired to have a go at printing why not try our printing workshop for adult beginners with artist Lily Cheetham, this Sunday 2-4pm

Love Life for Every Married Couple
When everything is going well in the relationship, partners are not prone to over-thinking and analyzing things and take everything for granted. However, from the moment the first problems occur, they start questioning themselves. Did they get what they expected from their marriage? Are they the reason for these problems? Is their partner the right one? This is quite normal and questioning yourself is something that you should do every once in a while if you want to improve your relationship and become a better person.
Modern marriage
Marriage is one of the most important institutions that is now rapidly losing strength. According to some statistics, more than 65% of marriages are successful. However, it is not unusual to hear stories about women who have left their husbands, something that was very rare in the past. The public is not as judgmental towards this practice, although we should not ignore the fact that it seems that too many couples use divorce as a solution although there is room for improvement.
In addition, people have also changed their perception – it is quite normal for two young individuals to live together before marriage and learn more about each other. This is one marriage policy that is accepted almost everywhere. Anyway, love is, regardless of whether we are talking about a partner, a parent or a friendly love, something that is worth the effort.
Nowadays, when many people are under pressure from everyday problems, primarily those existential, marriage and partnerships are often neglected. Many believe that love in marriage and long-term relationships is something that is natural. But, is it?
There are several phases in which every relationship goes through. The first phase is often described as being in love or having a crush. This is the feeling that people have at the beginning of the relationship when they believe that they have finally found the right partner. This feeling gradually decreases over time.
The second phase happens when some of the partners experiences and notices this reduction in their feelings. In this phase, they start questioning the habits that they have developed in this short time (visiting their partner's parents, noticing that the partner is working too much time etc.). On the other hand, the other partner will start to practice the habits that they have practiced before like socializing, taking care of their hobby etc. In a successful relationship, there is a phase of adjustment. This is the moment when the relationship becomes serious and this is the period that usually leads to marriage.
Is it possible to be in love forever?
There are many people who confuse love and partnership. Love is a feeling in the heart and partnership is often an activity in which you need to complete some "tasks" like cleaning, cooking, taking care of the bills, education of children, intimate intercourses etc. Falling in love is the enthusiasm that exists when two people find each other.
Of course, this doesn't mean that love life for every married couple is something abstract. Love is very important in marriage, but it is amazing how many people fail to see that and ruin their marriages. For example, people often confuse love with possessiveness. There is nothing wrong if one of the partners goes to a football match or a fashion show with their friends. There are also situations in which one of the partners relies too much on the other partner. It is very difficult for one person to "carry the weight" for two persons.
According to many experts, love life for every married couple is something that should be cherished and appreciated and there are certain things (like good communication, physical contact and getting out of the routine every once in a while) that can improve love life in married couples.

I've been thinking over on of the comments on the last post and it's taken me back to some of my earlier discussions of language. It's seems clear to me that the words we use matter a great deal. Sometimes we think we disagree (I mean this as a general observation, not related to a specific discussion) because we might be using the same word to mean slightly different things or different words to mean the same thing. Sometimes it takes quite a while to figure out exactly what we disagree about.
Part of the problem is that many of the words we use have layers of meaning some of which are necessarily imprecise. Think of "family" for instance. I sometimes use family to mean my immediate household but other times I use it to mean a much wider array of kin. I know what people mean when they say 'are you planning to start a family," too, even though that's not a phrase I use.
It's easy to see how this can lead to dispute. Suppose a business offers "family memberships." Who's included? My (theoretical, because I am an only child) adult sister? My parents? Would it matter if my parents lived with me? My kids? My kids only if they are under a certain age?
There's a second issue besides clarity, however. Language has power. The language that is used helps to shape our understanding of the world. So when a lesbian couple is raising a child together, the assertion "this child has two mothers" is a meaningful one. Equally, it might be important to say "this child does not have a father." This is not a denial of biological reality–it's a statement about the structure of the family involved.
This brings me to the problem with talking about mother/father/parent. Some people are going to look at that statement–"this child does not have a father"–and want to argue. Would it be satisfactory to rephrase that as "this child does not have a social father?" I think that many people who would make the statement in the first place would find that an unacceptable substitute. That's because the word "father"–like the word "mother" and maybe even "parent"–has content even when it is modified by "biological," "social," "legal," or whatever.
I am sympathetic to this concern and so have tended towards terms like progenitor instead of biological father. That's what I've talked about in the past.
All of this leads me to another language problem I've been thinking about recently, one related to the word "real." I'm beginning to think it is an entirely unhelpful modifier. What it generally does is to diminish the importance of whatever the "real" thing is being compared to. So when someone says "but X is the real father" there's almost always someone else around–Y, say–whose status is diminished by this move. This is also why two parent lesbian families find it problematic when someone asks "who's the real mother?"–as though one of them were not real.
I'm fairly sure I've used the word "real" in this way myself in the blog, but I think I'm going to try to stop doing it. I don't see that the word adds useful content. It's just a subtle way of advancing an argument that ought to be out in the open.

About Tom
Tom Pessemier's business flourishes because his clients and business partners know they can always bank on Tom and his team to get the job done – and done well. "Most of my business comes by way of referral from my past clients, Realtors, Financial Planners, CPA's, Attorneys, local small business owners, friends and family. Even though I've received hundreds of referrals over the years, every time I get a call with the name and number of someone who needs my help, I still feel so grateful for the chance to make a positive difference in that person's life – and for the trust of the person who put their name on my service. I will never take that lightly." HISTORY: Tom currently resides in Sarasota, Florida with his wife of 18 years, Christy, their two daughters Eleni & Natalia – and their family dog – Scout. Tom had previously been a lifetime resident of the Seattle area in Western Washington State. He grew up on Clear Lake in Eatonville, Washington, near the foothills of Mt. Rainier; and spent most of his summers waterskiing and building treehouses with friends. "We love living in Southwest Florida – and we love Washington State as well. We get back as often as possible to visit our family and close friends. I grew up there, and have many fond memories of camping trips, mountain hikes, bike riding, and exploring – now, we enjoy many of those wonderful outdoor activities, but the mountains have been replaced with warm water, white sand beaches. There's still nothing like roasting marshmallows in our backyard on a nice summer night! In my spare time, I also enjoy fishing. I just need to get better at the catching part…" SERVICE With a background in restaurant management, Tom understands service and hospitality. Tom started working for his Dad at their family restaurant, the Brown Cow Drive-In, when he was 14 years old. "I begged my dad for a job at his restaurant when I was just 14 years old, and he hired me – but it wasn't without warning that my employment was conditional on performance!. That's where I learned to love work. My job description is now a lot different than it was at that time, but I still love helping people as much as I did back then. Now, I get to help people purchase and refinance homes. The sense of accomplishment I feel is overwhelming sometimes, knowing that getting the job done is attached to a place where people live; and the people I work with might as well be family ." EXPERIENCE Tom began his career in the mortgage business in May of 2003, as an Account Executive for a large nationwide mortgage company. He later earned his Washington State Mortgage Broker License, and opened a mortgage office in Puyallup, WA. When Tom joined Guaranteed Rate, it was to provide more options to his clients. RESOURCES Tom is well connected in his community. "One thing I find very rewarding about helping people finance real estate, is also having opportunities to experience other service-related businesses in action. I get to see from the inside how these services are done and who does them best. From Dog Trainers to Financial Planners, to Attorneys and Accountants; I know and work with the best of them – and am always more than happy to make introductions." TRUST "For five straight generations now, my family has owned small and large businesses. While I was growing up, finding resources and solving peoples' problems ethically was how I was taught to do life. To me, TRUST IS EVERYTHING. In life, as well as in business, my goal every day is to be worthy of the trust the people I am surrounded by place in me. If you know someone I can help, please feel free to introduce me to them. I'll take excellent care of them for you." Sincerely, Tom Pessemier

I've always felt that Martin Luther got rid of too many sacraments; I'd add marriage back as a sacrament, if I was solely in charge of the Lutheran world.
A sacrament is more than a symbol. A sacrament is a way we see a visible sign of God's invisible grace, a tangible object that points us to the ineffable.
Nothing else has helped me understand God's love for me the way my spouse's love for me has. I make mistakes, and he forgives me. He forgives me, even though he knows I will likely make the same mistakes again and again. I do the same for him. He sees me--the best me, the worst me--as I truly am, and he loves me. Largely, he loves me not because of my anything I might say or do to convince him, but because he knows me.
Understand is probably too strong a word. In some ways, we can never understand the scope of love, either the love we have for each other or the love God has for us.
And I know that there are so many ways that marriage can go wrong. My church has 2 sacraments, Baptism and Eucharist. Those do not have the potential for going wrong in the ways that marriages do. So, maybe Martin Luther knew what he was doing.
Still, for those of us in loving relationships, it's worth thinking about how those relationships strengthen both us and our societies. It's worth thinking about how we can do more to support people in long-term relationships.
How might we transform our marriages and long-term relationships if we viewed our partners as sacramental elements?
you're perfect just the way you are

Federal regulators are warning consumers nationwide about the potential for certain over-the-counter (OTC) drugs to impair their ability to drive or operate heavy machinery, notifying users of non-prescription medications that the drugs may cause signigicant drowsiness and impair their cognitive functioning. If you believe you have been adversely affected by side effects of a dangerous pharmaceutical drug, our consumer advocates at the Consumer Justice Foundation can help. We are dedicated to protecting the rights of consumers harmed by potentially defective prescription or over-the-counter medications, and can help put you in touch with a knowledgeable attorney who has experience handling drug injury claims.
The FDA issued the consumer report on October 7, indicating that non-prescription drugs like antihistamines, loperamide and diphenhydramine all contain ingredients that may affect users' alertness and driving ability. The medications also have the potential to cause other debilitating side effects, such as slow reaction times and unfocused thinking. In light of this risk, health officials are warning consumers that side effects of over-the-counter medications can carry severe risks if they are not chosen carefully and used exactly as directed. "You can feel the effects some OTC medications can have on your driving for a short time after you take them, or their effects can last for several hours," said Ali Mohamadi, M.D., a medical officer with the FDA. "In some cases, a medicine can cause significant 'hangover-like' effects and affect your driving even the next day."
One class of OTC drugs included in the FDA report are antihistamines, which are found in many popular cold and flu medications commonly used to treat sneezing, an itchy throat, watery eyes and a runny nose. According to the report, antihistamines are often added to the active ingredients in combination drugs to relieve pain and reduce fever, but typically cause drowsiness as a side effect. Diphenhydramine, the active ingredient in Benadryl, was also noted in the FDA report, and can cause users to become unfocused and slow to react. Anti-emetics, which are commonly used to treat vomiting, nausea and dizziness, were also included in the report, due to their tendency to cause fatigue and sleepiness and impair driving.
In its report, the FDA warns that each OTC medication features a "Drug Facts" label to help consumers make safe choices when it comes to taking non-prescription drugs. Officials with the agency recommend that consumers look for statements that say, "You may get drowsy," "marked drowsiness will occur," or "be careful when driving a motor vehicle or operating machinery," all of which suggest that the medications may not be safe to take when driving. If you have been involved in a car accident or suffered serious injuries that you believe to be related to your use of a prescription or OTC medication, contact a reputable drug injury lawyer today to explore your possible compensation options. You may have grounds to file a product liability claim against the manufacturing company, in order to pursue financial compensation for your injuries.

Season 53
S34 review and further plans
Written by
at 00:49 4/12-2015
S34 is nearly over, it's time to review it.
Cold numbers:
- Points at end of season: 844 (PB, previous best was 469 (S32)).
- Results: 10 (PB, previous best was 8 (S28)
- Wins: 2
This has been my first season with a proper tour rider, it has been nice.
Gerwin Lute
gave me third in
Monte Rosa Tour
, a stage win and YC win. This gave me He also racked up a fifth place in
Perm Tour
after a slight crack from podiums on the last day. He also got a third place in one of the stages and a third place in YC.
Perm Tour
ended up on a sour note though, as he was doing really well in the first half of the tour, leading GC going into the crucial ITT-stage where I had hoped TT-frame would secure a decent result. Off day ensued and everything was ruined.
During the season
Gerwin Lute
also gave me second in
Tour of Hawaii
, a classic, and a second in
Åsane Grand prix G3
Another notable performer this season was
Kelsey Freeny
He surprised me in the
Monte Rosa Tour
Bern Prologue
by becoming the team's best rider in second place, despite not being TT-centered. He also racked up a 5th and a 7th in two sprinter stages in
Monte Rosa Tour
, earning me some unexpected cash:
Total direct income from him this season: $13500.
Not a lot, but as I did not expect anything from him it was a nice bonus.
During this season I also acquired and trained a new talent:
Philip De Weert
. My hope was for him to surpass
Gerwin Lute
as a GC candidate, but unfortunately he AVmaxed a little bit too soon. He ended up as a 203 climber and should therefore be more than acceptable in climbing races as well as serving as an excellent domestique for
Gerwin Lute
in tours. Still, considering his potentials he could have been so much more. Slight disappointment.
Note to self: Do the math on training points needed when evaluating new trainees. As I understand it any rider can be trained 60-180 points before avmaxing. This is completely random. I need to be more on top of this and make an estimation before committing to a trainee. I.e. I need to be sure my trainee can be somewhat useful even if he AVmaxes after being trained 60 points.
All in all an okay S34 has been the season where I made it to Division 3 and surprisingly managed to stay, racking up some okay results along the way as well.
It is really odd, I found it more difficult to get results in div6-5 than I do in div3.
Now about goals for the following season:
1) Get into some tours and try out my new captain/superdomestique-combination for real.
2) Try to maintain my position in div3. If i can't, at least accidentally time the relegation so that I can get into some tours in div4.
3) Obtain another trainee, preferable with some hill skill to round off my climber-train, or
4) save money for more equipment, either a climber's frame (too expensive) or a TT-wheel (probably feasible).

Saturday 10th October 2015 - 11:00 to 11:55
INI Seminar Room 1
The theory of Weihrauch degrees is about representing classical theorems of analysis in Baire space and comparing their strength (measured as the Weihrauch degree). In this talk, we are exploring a version of this theory for generalized Baire space. The first step in this generalization is that of finding a generalization of R on which we can prove a version of theorems from classical analysis. The first part of the talk will be devoted to the presentation of the construction of an extension of R on which we can prove a version of the Intermediate Value Theorem. In the second part of the talk we will be focusing on generalizing notions from computable analysis. Finally we will show how this new framework can be used to characterize the strength of the generalized version of the version of the Intermediate Value Theorem we presented in the first half of the talk.
