Because hackers managed to delete ALL the old newsy posts from this site, I’ll add several bits of old news in one post here. Hate to lose the links, but also hate to generate posts with a current date that actually reflect the past. That could be confusing. A couple of years ago, Kenn Amdahl was interviewed by the Denver weekly newspaper Westword. That interview is still online here. Book a Day Reviews, Interview with Kenn Amdahl done in 2013, primarily about Revenge of the Pond Scum. Scroll down to the second interview on the page. Several of Kenn Amdahl books reviewed in Wired Magazine, 2011 Joy Writing reviewed by author Pat Stoltey: Maureen Anderson devoted a chapter of her book “Career Clinic” to Kenn Amdahl’s experience as a self publisher: Famed inventor Dean Kamen (the segway, many others) was interviewed on a radio show by the American Association of Science before Christmas and asked for his book recommendations. His first choice? Calculus for Cats by Kenn Amdahl and Jim Loats, Ph.D. This was a total surprise to us, we’d had no contact with him. The interview is still online, I’m pretty sure, but I’ve lost the link. Will post it again when I find it. Until then, Make Magazine also referred to his recommendation on their website: //makezine.com/2009/12/02/great-science-reads-the-new-york-ac/ The book “Legendary Locals of Broomfield” by Carol Turner devoted some space to Kenn Amdahl” Maria Miller wrote a very nice review of Algebra Unplugged by Kenn Amdahl and Jim Loats, Ph.D for HomeschoolMath.net Gareth Branwyn published a kind (and funny) review of There Are No Electrons by Kenn Amdahl in Make Magazine. Gareth Branwyn is a freelance writer and the former Editorial Director of Maker Media. He is the author or editor of over a dozen books on technology, DIY, and geek culture. He is currently a contributor to Boing Boing, Wink Books, and Wink Fun. And he has a new best-of writing collection and “lazy man’s memoir,” called Borg Like Me. Nice mention of Calculus For Cats by Kenn Amdahl and Jim Loats, Ph.D, in Keith Devlin’s book The Math Instinct: Why You’re a Mathematical Genius (Along with Lobsters, Birds, Cats, and Dogs) Here’s the page that mentions us: It is very cool to be mentioned by Keith Devlin, NPR’s “Math Guy.” Here’s what his page at Stanford says about him: Dr. Keith Devlin is a co-founder and Executive Director of the university’s H-STAR institute, a co-founder of the Stanford mediaX research network, and a Senior Researcher at CSLI. He is a World Economic Forum Fellow, a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society. His current research is focused on the use of different media to teach and communicate mathematics to diverse audiences. In this connection, he is a co-founder and President of an educational technology company, BrainQuake, that creates mathematics learning video games. He also works on the design of information/reasoning systems for intelligence analysis. Other research interests include: theory of information, models of reasoning, applications of mathematical techniques in the study of communication, and mathematical cognition. He has written 33 books and over 80 published research articles. Recipient of the Pythagoras Prize, the Peano Prize, the Carl Sagan Award, and the Joint Policy Board for Mathematics Communications Award. In 2003, he was recognized by the California State Assembly for his “innovative work and longtime service in the field of mathematics and its relation to logic and linguistics.” He is “the Math Guy” on National Public Radio. Very nice review of There Are No Electrons by Kenn Amdahl on Sparkfun, a website devoted to amateur electronics hobbyists. I emailed them to ask if they’d accept a review copy and they said I didn’t need to: they knew the book and had been recommending it for years. They said they’d be glad to post their own review. Alas, some clown with no sense of humor read their review, then rated the book one star himself and no one else has corrected him so, despite the nice review, the book remains at one star on this site. Nice 2017 recommendation of Algebra Unplugged by Kenn Amdahl and Jim Loats, Ph.D on the website hackernoon.com Marcella Smith was, for many years, responsible for buying books by small press vendors for Barnes and Noble. Now she’s a publishing consultant. She was very kind to us and I’m pleased she chose to use one of my quotes on her website: The University of California at Santa Cruz (go banana slugs!) has been using There Are No Electrons by Kenn Amdahl for many years in their intro to electronics class. Just want to say thank you, professor Ken Pedrotti. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

There's more to web designing than creating beautiful websites. That is a big part of the job, but a lot goes into the design and creation of a website, and the web developer juggles many responsibilities. Some basic job duties include writing code, creating and debugging applications for the site, and working with clients to make decisions and develop plans for the site. Those who work in web designer jobs must bring the client's vision for the website to life. Web Designer Job Education Requirements Most employers prefer that applicants for web designer jobs have at least a bachelor's degree in web design or a related field, but some may be fine with one who has an associate's degree in web design. In addition to the degree, a web designer must stay current on trends and apps that help websites look their best. A web designer must be educated about writing code, programming, and graphic design. Web designers often work with graphic designers and art directors, so they need more than a basic understanding of those positions. Web Designer Job Market Things are looking up for web designers. Thanks to the fact that nearly any business must have a website to thrive and stay competitive, web designers are very much in demand. It's also anticipated that the employment of web developers will grow a whopping 20 percent within the next decade, which is more than the average for other jobs. Web Designer Job Salary Information Web designers can expect to earn an average of around $63, 000 per year. Salaries vary a lot based on the company as well as the city of employment. Those who are just starting out may earn less than $34, 000 per year, while those who have a great deal of experience or a higher level of education can earn over $100, 000 per year.

Breaking Dawn Parody by The Hillywood Show is coming up fast. The first official still, which you can view on their website, was released late Friday night. Without the parody logo in the top left corner, a glance at this picture looks like a still from the movie itself. The Hillywood Show never disappoints with accuracy. This still makes me wonder what angle the parody will take. There is probably a good amount more "sitting around" in this movie than the previous three--how does that lend to the music video style the Twilight parodies thus far have had? Will there still be a focus mostly on Bella's perspective (as perhaps the still would suggest), or will it also be on other characters? The countdown to February continues.

Casa Colectiva América, 1937 • San Telmo Avenida San Juan & Balcarce I put this series on the back burner a few months ago while doing the dome map & getting the cemetery blog up. Now I feel sufficiently guilty to continue where I left off… the 1930’s. Worldwide economic depression in 1929 & Argentina’s first military coup in 1930 also make this a good moment to start again. Economic & political problems brought social welfare to a halt for most of the decade. As the world pulled out of the Great Depression, immigration to Argentina slowed & they regained a market in Europe. Not much had been done in Buenos Aires to house immigrants in the meantime. Many of the first arrivals had already formed large families so the Comisión Nacional de Casas Baratas (CNCB) dusted itself off & built an apartment building with 95 units. Designed by Estanislao Pirovano, the U-shape allows a lot of light to enter & gives half the units a view of the central patio. Pirovano was an incredibly diverse architect, having designed everything from Tudor to Neocolonial. But this was the first time a housing project had been built in the newest style taking BA by storm: racionalismo. Smooth surfaces, projecting window blinds & strategically placed curves gave the Casa América a sexy, streamline look. Most of the units have 2 bedrooms, & I was impressed at how nice it looks even today. The only thing that makes this location less-than-desirable today is that the highway to Ezeiza runs directly behind it. But I’m not complaining… this could have easily disappeared in the 1970’s. Update (27 Jan 2011): Just before leaving for Australia in Jul 2008, a visit to the Archivo General de la Nación turned up an interesting photo. Taken in Jun 1935, the reverse text reads: El arzobispo de Buenos Aires bendiga la piedra fundamental de la Casa Colectiva América, que se levantará en San Juan y Balcarce. Presidió la ceremonia el Ministro del Interior. Momento en que usa la palabra el ingeniero Juan Ochoa. The Archbishop of Buenos Aires blesses the cornerstone of the Casa Colectiva América, which will be erected at San Juan & Balcarce. The Minister of the Interior presided over the ceremony. Moment when the engineer Juan Ochoa addressed those present. Apart from the interesting scene –notice how society women dressed at the time– surely one of those in the crowd must be the architect responsible for the project, Estanislao Pirovano… well, actually I found a photo of Pirovano a few years after writing this post & nope, looks like he didn’t attend the ceremony.

Here at Foundations Christian School, we're really excited because our next fundraiser is starting! You've probably seen those coupon books some of the schools sell, and perhaps you've even bought some in the past. The problem with coupon books is that they're bulky and they're not very convenient. We've found something even better. America's Freedom Card is a savings and discount card that works nationwide. There are plenty of businesses to choose from, including restaurants, hotels and even auto mechanics. The best part is that if you have a smart phone, you can just add the app to your phone and leave your card at home. How convenient is that?! These cards are only $10 and they're good for an entire year! That means they more than pay for themselves. If you're interested in picking up one or more cards for you and your family, please leave a comment on this post, or contact your favorite Foundations Christian School student or staff member. We will be more than happy to set you up with some real savings. After all, you're going to eat out, you're going to need to stay in a hotel, and you're going to get your oil changed, right? You might as well save money while you're at it! If you'd like more information about this fundraiser, or about enrolling your child in Foundations Christian School for next year, please contact us today! Our goal is for this blog to be informative, entertaining and fun for parents and anyone who is interested in learning more about Foundations Christian School. Thanks for reading!

Kaitlin is a fourth year Human Kinetics student at the University of Ottawa who recently completed her internship at my clinic, Function to Fitness Physiotherapy. She is applying for her Masters in Physiotherapy and plans to start that program once she completes her Kinesiology degree. Kaitlin is committed to her studies and because of her schedule is too busy to take proper care of herself. The Pain of Daily Headaches But this hard work and commitment came at a cost: Kaitlin suffered daily painful, debilitating headaches for several years and was unsure of their exact cause. Kaitlin thought that they were the result of dehydration, stress or poor diet. Maybe they were the result of too little sleep? She frequently used over the counter painkillers such as Tylenol to deal with the problem. A Headache Appears Kaitlin and I were at a workshop in Montreal when her usual afternoon headache came on. I encouraged her to massage the areas around her head and neck. This helped but it only lessened her pain a small amount. Mind Your Posture, Young Lady Then I thought we should try something else. During the time we worked together, I noticed that Kaitlin maintained a stooped forward posture. I challenged Kaitlin to sit up straight and maintain a good posture throughout the next day and see if that affected the headache. The next day her daily headache failed to appear. Kaitlin realized that she had the habit of slouching. Her head would fall forward over slouched shoulders. This was the pattern she held while in class listening to lectures, while at her computer, when reading her books and while completing her written assignments. In fact, her head was in a forward position for the majority of her waking day. After the first headache free day, Kaitlin realized the cause of her headaches and what she had to do to eliminate them. It all made sense; my poor posture was causing me to have terrible headaches. Right away I knew I had to start working towards having better posture. It was definitely not easy at first but sitting up straight with my head completely aligned is now embedded within my brain. I am now headache free; continuing to live my hectic life painlessly.

Beauty is a woman’s nature, and every woman yearns for white skin, which can add a lot to her appearance. In fact, there are many whitening methods, not only using whitening products, but also starting from some small things in life. So what should a woman do if she wants to whiten? Experts have shared some whitening methods. Let’s learn about them soon! 1. Drink water. Everyone knows the importance of drinking water in the morning. Women need to be hydrated. If they have enough water, they will naturally have good skin. Therefore, they insist on drinking a cup of boiled water every morning after getting up. In order to increase the effect, they can add an appropriate amount of salt to the clear water, which can clear the intestines and eliminate toxins. 2. Correct facial exfoliation correct facial washing is also a good way to whiten. Let’s learn about it. The dull and yellow face seems to be caused by insufficient nutrition, but it is precisely caused by the failure of normal metabolism of the cuticle of the facial skin. Exfoliating facial skin is one of the ways to quickly change the dark, yellow and dull complexion. The exfoliated facial skin can not only make the facial skin white, tender and smooth, but also allow the nutrition of skin care products to quickly penetrate into the bottom of the skin, nourish the skin, and make the facial skin more bright and moist. 3. Do a good job of isolation and sunscreen ultraviolet rays to make our skin dark yellow and black, if you want to avoid this problem, you must do a good job of sunscreen and isolation before going out, and you can use sunscreen and isolation cream with good effects. In addition, remember to remove your makeup immediately after you get home. 4. Eat more white radishes. Chinese medicine has mentioned that white radishes benefit the five internal organs and whiten the skin. Because white radish is rich in vitamin C, it can not only promote the integration of skin with collagen, but also improve blood circulation, remove exhaust gas and waste in the body, inhibit melanin, and make skin white and delicate. 5. When applying a facial mask, don’t underestimate a small facial mask. Do it about once or twice a week. After long-term persistence, you will find that the facial mask is very effective in improving the skin, which can not only moisturize, whiten, but also remove acne. However, people with dark yellow skin especially need to pay attention to hydration, so it is recommended to moisturize their face with moisturizing water before applying facial mask. Such a small action can double the effect of applying facial mask. 6. Exercise can detoxify the skin and let the toxin be discharged in time along with the sweat of the skin pores. Make the skin emit healthy and natural complexion. Such as mountain climbing, jogging, badminton, gymnastics and so on, these common sports should be done more. 7. Diet conditioning is also very necessary for whitening through diet conditioning. It is also feasible to use daily diet to regulate dark yellow skin. Milk: drink more milk, especially pure milk. The saying that milk can make people white is scientific, so you must pay attention to developing the habit of drinking milk at ordinary times. Jujube: because jujube is rich in vitamin C and vitamin E, eating it regularly can make your skin very smooth and moist. Sesame seeds: the nutrients contained in sesame seeds can make your skin take on a new look like rebirth. There are many whitening methods in the market, and what suits you is the best, so you should decide according to your actual situation. When you go out, you must do a good job in sunscreen. Even when you go out in winter, you must not ignore the seriousness of ultraviolet rays. You must apply sunscreen and isolation cream. We should develop good skin care habits at ordinary times. In winter, we should remember to moisturize and maintain smooth and delicate skin!

Jean-Philippe Collard: At the heart of colour Jean-Philippe Collard belongs to that category of artists who move through space in the same way as they play: the measured gestures brush past the lights until he sits down in front of the instrument. The pianist has come to listen to those who have come to hear him. What he proposes is a dialogue without words. Just through the eyes and then through sound. An infinity of sounds. This very special complicity conceals all the preparatory work that comes before the concert: the need to forget one’s nervousness (how long afternoons are before going on stage!), to dominate an impatient body, to channel one’s courage, the self-control of the final moments before the leap into the void, it all depends. It is necessary, he says, ‘to be sucked into the music, to be calm enough to find your way back to spontaneity, and to captivate the audience’. The urge to convey and reveal the beauty of music exceeds the nature of a mere passion: it is a matter of vital necessity, for which one must resolve to share one’s own emotions, without the desire to conquer those of others in return. An offering, now of immense proportions after hundreds of concerts and more than sixty recordings. ‘You have to strike straight at the heart and not over-intellectualise works you’ve frequented for years’, he says. Those works constitute a fabulous harvest, the fruits of Romanticism, from Chopin and Schumann right up to Rachmaninoff, made still more beautiful by two centuries of French music. All Jean-Philippe Collard’s sound worlds are impregnated with colour: the ‘sensation produced on the organ of sight by light variously reflected by bodies’, says the Littré dictionary, with an epicurean perception unusual in such a volume yet intensely familiar to a pianist who, precisely, declares that he is ‘hungry for colours’. But not just any colours. A gourmet of pigments, the artist knows what nuance means in every context, when sonic landscapes with a measured temperament resonate in the iridescence of arpeggios and the long finish of chords. When he recalls his apprenticeship with Pierre Sancan, his friendship with Vladimir Horowitz and his encounters all over the world with the elite of conductors and the foremost orchestras, Jean-Philippe Collard knows that he can tell the public everything. So he has paid tribute to the gods of colour, his composers.

We’ve been switching our recaps to the form of video – if you haven’t caught any of the previous ones check out our IGTV channel. However, for this week our Insider decided to go on a vacation and you’re stuck having to read about what happened. So sit back, relax, grab your favourite flavour of Ovaltine and let’s catch up on the week that just passed. So some preamble before we get into the games – this week concludes our first past through a round robin. Every team saw each other once, and because there were 6 games, each team saw at least one other one twice – Falcons v Eagles, Owls v Wolves, and Tigers v Lions were the repeat games. So we now know a little bit about each team, what they bring, what their strengths are, and where they need some help. At this point in the season everyone can now go home without the worry that their muscle soreness the next day will prevent them from beckoning for their morning cup of coffee (or chai – I don’t know what you drink). That means, this week that just passed might have been the first time we actually saw what the potential of the players on the field could be. However, playoffs will always be the true test. Ok, enough pre-amble let’s get to the main course. Game 1: Wolves 10 @ Falcons 15 This game featured teams that haven’t played yet, we had Abbas Allidina pitching against Miqdad Jaffer – Abbas being picked 1 spot before Miqdad in the draft. For the Wolves they were without the league’s batting leader in Raza Jafary and captain/human cheer squad in Imran Virji. The Falcons were actually short handed and playing with 9 players. Though if you watched this game you wouldn’t really know they were short. The Falcons took an early lead 4-1 after the first inning and kept the pressure on for the first 4 innings scoring either 4 or 3 runs in each inning. The Wolves started to get rolling in the 6th inning scoring 5 runs with no outs, but the mercy inning squashed their momentum and they could never really mount a reasonable challenge for the Falcons. Standouts in this game for the Falcons were the captain and his trusty assistant – both Ali R(e/a)zas were in top form going 4 for 5, combining for 8 hits and 7 runs scored. Ali Raza Nasser dedicated this game to Riaz Champsi, who was somewhere on a golf course scoring an 8 of his own (that’s not good). Even more impressive in this game was that every single Falcon recorded at least 1 hit, imagine what they can do with a full squad. For the Wolves this might have been the first game Aadil Jaffer looked a little like his old self – maybe this trade for his brother Irfaan was all he needed to feel normal again. As for that aforementioned pitching matchup, Abbas Allidina clearly took home the win on this one – showing he was the right pick all along. Game 2: Tigers 9 @ Lions 8 The Lions had this game circled as they were looking to avenge a 1 run loss to the Tigers previously. As you can tell from the score, it was a strong case of deja vu. The Tigers took an early lead but then were held off by the impressive defensive presence of the Lions. The Lions did get an 8-4 lead after 3 innings, but it seems like they wasted all of their energy building the lead, but couldn’t hold it. And that’s really the important part anyone can take the lead, but it’s the holding that really matters – kinda like reservations (If you don’t get that reference, I’m sorry this is just not going to be the article for you – stop reading, go watch Seinfeld and come back when you have a thorough education on the 1990s). The Tigers seem like they’re tinkering with their lineups as they continue to tinker to find out what works for them – Azad Najfi leading off was the change in this one and it must have messed with “Super Rookie” Ali Zia because he went 0 for 3, but his brother Noor seemed to have picked him up almost hitting for the cycle in this one – just missing that elusive homerun. But if you’re looking for homeruns, look no further than the Lions Abbasali Kermalli – he’s hitting at least one a game and these are no doubters on any field. The Lions seem to be coming together as a team, and really doing a good job of laying out their defence. Mohamed “Biggs” Walli seems to be finding his groove with pitching and though he hasn’t broken through on the offensive side of the ball – his captain maintains that he’s just knocking on that door and ready to break it down. Game 3: Eagles 8 @ OWLS 7 Shorthanded the Eagles reached out for a waitlist player to bring their total roster to 9. Meanwhile the Owls almost had a full squad at 11 players – their only missing player, Tanveer Husnani, was on the golf course with Riaz probably shooting an 8 of his own. Unfortunately, the 8 was what the Owls needed to stay in this one and just fell short of that mark. This team did feature an impressive pitching matchup in Hussein Allidina and Mikael Ratansi – both let in an equal 5 ERs, had 1 K each, but it was Mikael Ratansi’s 3 walks that were the biggest differential between these two. Imran Nasser, Sarfaraz Karmali, and Arif Jaffer carried the offensive load for the Eagles accounting for 7 of the team’s 8 RBIs. Wait read that back. Arif Jaffer was on that list – obviously showing some growth he was brought in as someone that could make the team better through some quad stretches, his offensive form is coming along and he even got an XBH to add to his stat totals. Meanwhile on the Owls nobody really got going. Aqil Najafi new to the squad did his best to prove his captain’s correct in trading for him accounting for 2 of the team’s 6 RBIs, but certainly not enough for a team that seemed to go pretty quiet on the bats. Ironically, they had more hits than the Eagles but the Eagles were just more timely with theirs. Game 4: LIONS 11 @ WOLVES 11 A tie, more of these this year than expected and the Wolves seem to be involved each time. So maybe this is a sign of them not being able to close. In the earlier tie against the Tigers it was a comeback, in this tie with the Lions it was a loss of the lead and then a mini recovery that didn’t make it all the way back. So let’s talk about the Lions first they had a slow start to contrast with their fast start in the previous game, and instead they seemed to be getting going at the end. Their outfield defence is looking stellar and their infield defence comes across as a Hajj exhibition. I know we’re in the month of Zilhajj but Abbasali Kermalli doing his best impression of running between the mountains of Safa (3rd) and Marwa (Home) to try and cover the plate is a hilarious sight to behold. Maybe that’s why they made the trade for Minaz Noormhamed, because if is an event that was going to take place every week I think teams would start to exploit it for a few extra bases. Almost everyone on the Lions got a hit in this one, and they exploited the Wolves outfield (not named Aadil Jaffer) as there were a lot of XBHs to be had. Most notably was an Abbasali Kermalli HR that is still probably in the air somewhere, which later resulted in a decision to walk him to face Sasha Al-Joundi a decision nobody of sane mind would ever make. Couple that with triples from Arif Hirji and Muzammil Jaffer – both of whom are probably still sore from having to run so far so quickly – were big contributors to some of the big innings the Lions put up. For the Wolves the big stories here are the play of Aadil Jaffer who kept on hitting, and Shahid Rahemtulla that batted a perfect 3 for 3 and kept the team rally’s going. Ultimately this one ends in a tie and both team’s seem happy with the result – Lions are happy they came back, and Wolves feel like they figured out who they are. Ultimately – a tie isn’t a win, so this one doesn’t really do anything for anyone. Game 5: Eagles 9 @ Falcons 1 These last two games are a bit of a head scratcher – just for the simple question of – how do you only score 1 run in slow pitch softball. For the Falcons the way they scored 1 run was 8 hits and a double by Abbas Fazal, which was ultimately scored because of a single from Ali Raza Nasser. The latter of which got called out for not generating enough RBIs – he responds by generating 100% of the team’s RBIs – and without knowing the score that’s actually an impressive stat – but because we do know the score we also know that the Eagles’ Umair Ali generated 6X the RBIs of the Falcons. The Eagles had a star performance pitching wise from Hussein Allidina throwing only 6 balls in this whole game. For those that know Hussein know that during playoffs 6 balls are usually the first 6 pitches he throws just to announce his appearance. This however, was a masterclass in shutting down a team. Eagles played a great game – Taleb Zaidi showing supreme patience taking 3 walks and filling in at SS for the absent Ali Manek. Umair Ali hitting everything in sight and scoring runs – but he’s able to get those RBIs because the Eagles Shaan Shamji continues his tear and goes 4 for 4. The nice thing about Shaan is that if he ends up on base, his speed makes it so that even a dribbler to the pitcher will allow him to score a run. For most players you have to throw one base ahead of them to slow them down, for Shaan you have to stay 2 or 3 bases ahead – this is mind you while he’s nursing an injury – it’s scary to imagine what he can do at full strength. There’s not a lot of redeeming qualities on the Falcons so we’ll just skip that part of the recap and say this was an anomaly that we won’t see again. Game 6: Owls 1 @ Tigers 9 Now I said we we won’t see again, but the Owls decided to show that scoring 1 run in a game is not an anomaly and something they would be able to replicate. So how did the Owls score their 1 run – looks like the strategy is the same – 8 hits, and a double from Maysum Jaffer that allowed the run to score. This one is odd because there were certainly base runners for the Owls – with 5 walks issued – but they just weren’t able to do anything after that first inning. The Tigers meanwhile did everything they could to help – they even let Ali Zia pitch – but even he couldn’t be touched. Nothing the Tigers do goes wrong and they’re a scary team. Also who is Indi Campbell – casually goes 2 for 3, with a triple and 3 RBIs. Now while Ali Zia still hit a homerun and got an equivalent 3 RBIs, he’s actually had an off week. Looking up and down this Tigers roster, nothing they did was that scary – maybe it was the Zia family’s sherbet that gave them that extra lift because they were relentless early, they seemed to relax after the 3rd inning but by then the game was already out of hand. As we head to moving day, the Tigers with these two wins this week have almost locked down 1st place. they’ll have the chance to play the Lions again who always seem to fall short, and they will face the Eagles who are looking to prove the impact they can make – but the Eagles will be without Imran Nasser, so we’ll see how much of an impact he really has on the team. Regardless next week should be exciting. That’s it. That’s our recap – check out the previews this Friday at 9:30 PM on IGTV as we go back to video. But let us know in the comments what you thought – agree, disagree, let’s hear what you think 👇🏽

Over on Wheat and Tares, Bishop Bill revisited the 2016 Atlantic article headlined “There’s no Such Thing as Free Will.” He entitled his additional thoughts on the subject “No Free Agency.” I added a comment to the discussion but am not sure I made my point as well as I could, since it was a reactionary comment made when I should have been paying attention to the lesson in priesthood meeting. To verify I still felt the same way about the idea of free will or agency, I decided to revisit my own 2011 post here on LDC on the subject which I titled “We have Limited Free Will.” Yep, I stand by that position. In that post I argued “…we have agency to act within certain bounds of natural laws that exist.” Since that post was written by assignment for a class on logic, I did not include any scriptural evidence to support my argument. I would like to add that support here. I suspect both the headlines on the above two posts were written to draw readership as neither one really presented a convincing argument that we indeed have no free will. In fact, the best rebuttal to the Atlantic article is summarized with their own secondary headline: “But we’re better off believing in it anyway.” Without Agency There is no Existence 30 All truth is independent in that sphere in which God has placed it, to act for itself, as all intelligence also; otherwise there is no existence. 31 Behold, here is the agency of man, and here is the condemnation of man; because that which was from the beginning is plainly manifest unto them, and they receive not the light. The above quote is from section 93 of the LDS edition of the Doctrine and Covenants. For this scripture to have relevance one obviously must accept it as the word of the Lord given by revelation to the Prophet Joseph, which I do. The importance and indeed, the power of agency is clearly taught here. This is something we can apply immediately and be blessed or cursed for so doing as we act upon our belief. Because of agency or free will, I can choose what I believe and therefore determine my own course in this life. This Doctrine Gives Us Power If I did not believe my choices mattered, I would probably be inclined to be less careful about what choices I make. If I did not believe in free will or moral agency, I would not feel responsible for my choices. It would be easy to excuse my poor behavior by simply reminding myself I have no choice in the matter. However, I choose to believe in the law of agency or free will. I believe God honors my choices and delivers to me consequences predicated upon the actions I have made in this sphere of existence with its limitations. Because I accept the scripture in section 93 as binding upon me, I am also able to accept the gift of the atonement, the gift of faith and the gift of repentance with the attendant blessings of forgiveness. I would not have claim on those gifts if I did not accept that I am an agent unto myself. I choose to accept this doctrine as binding upon me. Because the outcomes of my belief in this doctrine are so important and of eternal consequence, I have a right to know if it is a true doctrine even if I accept it as self-evident, which I do. This is Light and Truth Agency is most often taught with the accompanying doctrine of accountability, which is defined as being responsible for our own choices in life. If we accept the doctrine of accountability, we accept the consequences of our actions, even if they are delayed until some future time. In fact, if we immediately received the results of our actions, we would likely have a difficult if not impossible time learning to be true agents in the full sense of the word. Making conscious, deliberate choices becomes ingrained in our souls when we have time to see the full effects of our choices, even if not outwardly seen right away. Time is a blessing and gift of mortality. Without time, and delayed realization of the fruits of our labors, we would not appreciate or fully understand what we have done with our lives. With the blessing of time, we can see the fulfillment of promises made to us conditional upon our clear and intentional choices. While some rewards are not obtainable in this life, when we accept and act upon the law of accountability, we build light and truth within us that will prepare us for the full enjoyment of those blessings that are offered to us by the Spirit of the Lord as being desirable, even when delayed. Enticings of the Holy Spirit I’ve often wondered about the use of the word “enticings” in Mosiah 3:19. Because the English word “entice” can have some negative connotations, I’ve thought that perhaps Joseph could have chosen a better or different word. One definition of the word “entice” is “to attract or tempt by offering pleasure or advantage.” Hmmm… Does the Holy Spirit attract us? It should, it can, and it does. Does it offer advantage? Absolutely. But does it tempt by offering pleasure? Is that how the Holy Spirit works? In order to work on the natural man, I can make an argument in support of this definition of “enticings.” Another popular definition of the word “entice” is “to attract artfully or adroitly or by arousing hope or desire.” And one last definition of many available is “to lead on by exciting hope or desire.” Does the Holy Spirit lead us on? Has that been your experience? A few hymns and phrases from hymns come to mind. Lead, kindly light. Lead thou me on. Hope of Israel. Desire of all nations. Yes, the Holy spirit leads us on, but unlike many worldly comparisons that may come to mind, the Holy Spirit delivers. He does excite hope. For me, He strengthens my desire toward things of righteousness and holiness. Eager Anticipation of Reward You’re probably familiar with the logic behind human behavior. Why do we do the things we do? Typically, three levels of motivation are presented for consideration: fear, duty and love, with love being the most desirable. Like me, you can probably provide examples of how you are motivated by each of these three different levels in various aspects of your life. Interestingly, I am motivated to engage in my daily labors by all three, seemingly combined in one messy ball of mortality: fear of not having enough, a sense of duty toward my family and my fellow man, but mostly out of love for my wife. It’s no secret that humans are prone to addiction. We are also, by nature, very curious individuals, although some have argued modern education is doing a great job of killing that essential state of curiosity and creativity. Addiction and curiosity are dependent on the same biological chemistry and drive: dopamine and the drive to feel. This includes a desire for new sensory stimulus, intense emotional experiences, pleasure, excitement, entertainment, and anticipation. Dopamine enables us not only to see rewards, but to act to move toward them. We would accomplish little in our lives without it. Rewards in the Life to Come Can an understanding of human motivation and behavior help us understand how the spirit entices us to choose to pursue and obtain the things of eternal life? In a word, yes. The drive to feel, normally thought of as a mortal experience only, is so much more than that. It is an eternal motivator given to us by loving heavenly parents. While we may try to explain it away as entirely based on the biology of dopamine, it is part of our eternal makeup, central to the core essence of who we are. There is something to be said for the old test of existence: “I think, therefore I am.” In the same way, “I feel, therefore I am.” I choose to act upon the enticings of the Holy Spirit. As I do so, I become more sensitive to those enticings. I recognize them more readily. They come to me more frequently and with greater clarity. Yet they remain subtle, never obtrusive. While the enticings of the flesh can be powerful, strong and loud, the enticings of the spirit will almost always be quiet but just as powerful and as strong as I allow them to be. God will never force, but he will entice as long as we give heed to those enticings. His constant enticings are clear evidence of His love for us. In them, we come to know our heavenly parents perfectly. I Will Choose Free Will Each of us A cell of awareness Imperfect and incomplete With uncertain ends On a fortune hunt That’s far too fleet You can choose a ready guide In some celestial voice If you choose not to decide You still have made a choice You can choose from phantom fears And kindness that can kill I will choose a path that’s clear I will choose free will Songwriters: Geddy Lee / Alex Lifeson / Neil Peart Free Will lyrics © Ole Media Management Lp

I know no one ever means bad by congratulating someone on having a natural childbirth, but to those of us who labored for hours, and tore over and over, only to be sewed up and torn again, and told, sorry, baby won’t come out, it’s like being stabbed. Everyone thinks you ‘gave up’ or ‘asked for it’.. I would have done anything (and did) I pushed while the nurses were out of the room, I asked for the vacuum when I knew it was no good, pushed harder than anyone else had even seen my doctor push, for HOURS.. and it didn’t make a damn difference. The circumstances were against me from the start both times. I have 2 beautiful (BIG!) girls, but feel miserable every time I hear someone say ‘way to go’ to a naturally birthing mom. If you want to say something about it, say it privately, otherwise, those of us who had no choice, who were screwed over by mother nature or whatever are going to feel like crap. When my husband’s father died last spring, ‘they’ chose NOT to tell him that his dad had already passed. Instead they said he was ‘really bad off’ and to get there as fast as he could. REALLY? My husband made a 2 hour drive in 45 minutes. His dad had been dead for 2 hours before they even called him. WTH people? I was PREGNANT and had a toddler. You think it’s really F*****G smart to endanger his life in that situation? He could have come home and I could have driven him to be with the family. Tell the damn truth. I try REALLY hard to only say what is needed, so that I don’t hurt anyone’s feelings… if something DOES need said, then I try to make the best decision possible so there’s no harm done.

For all that can be said negative about Kane- the first murderer- in the book of Genesis, a lack of wit and audacity can not be one of them. In one of the most ironic stories of the whole Bible Kane rebuked God himself with the rhetorical and satirical question, "Am I my brother's keeper"? Clearly implying he was not and avoiding the obvious implications of God's inquiry. We are not told how the story fully played out, but I am sure if God did answer his snide question it would be an emphatic "yes"! One of the biggest criticisms in avoiding church is that it is full of liars, hypocrites, and hateful/unmerciful judges. If this logic were applied across the board, no one would step foot in gyms in the fear of seeing obese patrons. Additionally, no sick person would ever visit a hospital, as one is bound to encounter other ailing souls. It is precisely for the reason why Christians are so hurtful and hateful in their actions that they are in need of the loving care of the ultimate physical: Christ Jesus Himself, pretending otherwise sets us up for fail. My missions motto is simple: "reaching in, reaching out". This most basic anthem proclaims that if anyone is in need of change, it is first and foremost me. Along my journey with Christ, I have had more failures than successes. I distinctively remember my first year, and failing the test of righteousness at least 8-9 times out of 10 tests. As the years have passed I can soundly say I have increased maybe at the rate of 1-2 more triumphs each year. And still, on even my best days, I can hope to hit the mark a 7-8, if I am lucky- but these are sporadic at best. If this trend continues, I can well hope to be batting some solid numbers consistently in the next few years, but perhaps perfection will always be out of reach. Like the whack-a-mole game, I have found that sin is next to impossible to defeat completely. Once you smack one area about, another area appears seemingly out of no where. Mind you, this may merely be a point of perspective. For instance, an alcoholic may discover he has an anger problem once he is sober. However, that problem may have always existed, but the fixation on getting sober may in fact totally eclipse and overshadow other sins. The more we rid ourselves of unrighteousness, the more we realize how much more work we actually got to do. This should be the sincere journey of anyone truly seeking to find God or make any spiritual progress. The great thinker Socrates declared he knew nothing, and this is truly understood in comparing what we currently know to how much knowledge/progress is actually available. In our walks with God and attempting to reach the lost, honesty is always the best policy. I can say as a recovered alcoholic, beyond any reasonable doubt that the 12 steps of substance abuse recovery make perfect sense in regard to other sins: recognize we are helpless to help ourselves and God alone can restore us. Once we make this basic proclamation, we can begin to submit and surrender our will, desires and intentions over to him. It is only here where we can begin to seek lasting change that will steam roll this world that seems to be more and more irreparably damaged and straying even further from the light. For the lost to know this truth, we must be emphatic when applying it also to ourselves! When we start with our own specks, however big or small they might be, we give a good example to those who still need to confront sin in their eyes. By doing so, we also demonstrate a humility to seek change, and be proper stewards of God's amazing grace. Refusing to acknowledge sin, becoming defensive, and worse justifying actions, give a terrible precedence that will ultimately undermine our message and collapse the whole foundation of the gospel. Starting first and foremost with ourselves, we show that change is possible and fully acknowledge that we are still works in progress. This vulnerability and honesty disarms the defensive and paves the way for a rich harvest of embracing Christ, and also a crop of souls just waiting for a message of consistency. In doing so, we set a foundations for fertile growth and become, emphatically so, our brother's keeper.

This is part of the blog tour for Traitor’s Hope, the new book from Virginia McClain. Much like myself, Virginia is a Jukepop Serials alumni who spun her webserial from that site off into a series of self-published novels. She’s good people, always very supportive of the Hobson & Choi series and her books are reliably fun (here’s my Goodreads review of the first one if you like context) so I jumped at the chance to get involved with the sequel’s release. Let’s do this. Traitor’s Hope – a short essay Here, then, we return to the pseudo-Japanese world of Gensokai, where lifelong friends Taka and Mishi – the heroes from the first book – are discovering that keeping the peace might be almost as hard as winning the war. Like many second-books-in-series, there’s a greater focus on character-building here, a little willingness to let the people breathe and talk to each other rather than rushing headlong into the story. It also provides a chance for more world-building and a greater sense of the wider universe, which helps contextualise some of the more out-there fantasy elements. The magic system remains one of the best parts, well integrated into the world, story and combat. But perhaps most importantly of all, it gives the author the chance to describe really cool stuff. One element that’s definitely remained consistent between books is McClain’s gift for a visceral action scene. The characters other than Taka and Mishi also benefit a lot from the extra space, and supporting cast member Kusuko in particular gets a lot of interesting development – she’s probably the break-out character of the series, at this stage. Certainly, I know seeing what happens next to her is probably my biggest incentive to come back for the next one. This second-book task of expanding on the world means the plot isn’t quite as propulsive as the first one, but I think that’s expected. It means that when the faeces hits the fan again – and it definitely will – we care all the more about what happens to the cast. Mishi’s worries over her violent nature become a little laboured over the course of the whole book, but if I had genuine reason to believe I might flip out and kill my friends at any moment, I’d probably worry about it a lot too. In short – a strong continuation to a good series. Builds upon the strength of Blade’s Edge, makes the world of Gensokai deeper and more interesting and keeps the characters moving forward. I’ll definitely be back for book three. Hot Chunky Information Want to know more about the book and/or blog tour? Here’s all the words you could possibly need, or click here to go to the website of the company running it. About the Book: Title: TRAITOR’S HOPE (Blade’s Edge #2) Author: Virginia McClain Pub. Date: October 14, 2017 Publisher: Artemis Dingo Productions Formats: Paperback eBook Find it: Amazon, Buy The Paperback, Goodreads Traitors lurk around every bend. Mishi’s mind is betraying her, and she fears her kisō and katana will betray her next. Taka’s heart abandons her for a person she cannot possibly trust. Now that the two friends are obliged to help re-establish peace in the land of Gensokai, the only question is where the next betrayal will come from and if Mishi and Taka will have the strength to survive it. Virginia thinks dangling from the tops of hundred foot cliffs is a good time. She also enjoys hauling a fifty pound backpack all over the Grand Canyon and sleeping under the stars. Sometimes she likes running for miles through the desert, mountains, or wooded flatlands, and she always loves getting lost in new places where she may or may not speak the language. From surviving earthquakes in Japan, to putting out a small forest fire in Montana, Virginia has been collecting stories from a very young age. She works hard to make her fiction as adventurous as her life and her life as adventurous as her fiction. Both take a lot of imagination. She recently moved to Winnipeg with her husband (a Manitoba native) and their dog. 10/9/2017- Two Chicks on Books– Interview 10/9/2017- Blushing Bibliophile– Review 10/10/2017- Arvenig.it– Guest Post 10/10/2017- Bibliobakes– Review 10/11/2017- Kati’s Bookaholic Rambling Reviews– Excerpt 10/11/2017- Ashley M.

Talking Healthcare: While in New York on Tuesday, President Obama joined former President Bill Clinton at the Clinton Global Initiative Annual Meeting to discuss health care reform in America. “What we’re saying to people is, look, just go to the website yourself,” the President said. “Go to healthcare.gov; take a look at whether this is a good deal or not and make your own decision about whether this is good for you.” Check out their conversation here. On Thursday, the President spoke at Prince George’s Community College in Largo, Maryland about why access to affordable health care is a cornerstone of middle-class security, and why he took on the work of fixing our broken health care system during his first term. In the wealthiest nation on Earth, no one should go broke just because they get sick. In the United States of America, health care is not a privilege for the fortunate few -- it is a right. And I knew that if we didn’t do something about our unfair and inefficient health care system, it would keep driving up our deficits, it would keep burdening our businesses, it would keep hurting our families, and it would keep holding back economic growth. Starting October 1, those without health insurance will be able to visit the Health Insurance Marketplace and find health coverage that fits their needs – and their budget. A new report released on Wednesday found that Marketplace premiums are lower than initially expected. This means you can get high-quality, affordable health care under the Affordable Care Act for less than your cell phone bill. Make sure to watch the latest White House White Board to learn what the Affordable Care Act means for you. United Nations General Assembly: On Monday and Tuesday, President Obama took part in the 68th session of the U.N. General Assembly. During his time there, the President held an event on supporting civil society, engaged in discussions with world leaders, and spoke in front of the General Assembly. When he addressed the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday, President Obama focused on Syria and the use of chemical weapons by the Assad regime, the prospects for diplomatic engagement with Iran, and potential for peace talks between Israelis and Palestinians. "For decades, the United Nations has in fact made a difference -- from helping to eradicate disease, to educating children, to brokering peace," the President said. But like every generation of leaders, we face new and profound challenges, and this body continues to be tested. The question is whether we possess the wisdom and the courage, as nation-states and members of an international community, to squarely meet those challenges; whether the United Nations can meet the tests of our time. President's Statement from the Briefing Room: President Obama spoke from the White House Briefing Room on Friday about new diplomatic efforts with the Islamic Republic of Iran and the situation with Congress. Earlier that day, President Obama spoke with President Rouhani of the Islamic Republic of Iran, which is the first communication between an American and Iranian President since 1979. Turning to Congress, the President stated the urgency of raising the debt ceiling and voting on a budget. "My message to Congress is this: Do not shut down the government. Do not shut down the economy. Pass a budget on time. Pay our bills on time. Refocus on the everyday concerns of the American people," the President said. Memorial Service for Victims of the Navy Yard Shooting: President Obama spoke at a memorial service on Sunday to honor the 12 victims of the Navy Yard shooting. “We know that no words we offer today are equal to the magnitude, to the depths of that loss,” the President told the families of the victims. The President also spoke about the need to prevent future tragedies like this one. “I do not accept that we cannot find a common-sense way to preserve our traditions, including our basic Second Amendment freedoms and the rights of law-abiding gun owners, while at the same time reducing the gun violence that unleashes so much mayhem on a regular basis,” he said. Vice President Biden Travels to Colorado: On Monday, Vice President Joe Biden traveled to Colorado to view the damage from recent flooding and survey the recovery efforts. “When President Obama issued the disaster declaration for the state, as you all know, that provided additional assistance -- everything from cleaning up debris to helping people with their housing costs to boots on the ground that are providing technical assistance and helping the search and rescue,” the Vice President said. Vice President Biden called the progress “remarkable” but said recovery efforts will continue as long as the people of Colorado need help rebuilding.

Pennine Soaring Club AGM and Committee Meeting 13 February 2017, Sea View, Chorley. Committee Members present: Graham Jones, Brian Stewart, Jim Ashley, Simon Blake, Richard Chadwick, Andy Archer, Carl Fairhurst, John Murphy, Andy Mcloughlin. Apologies received from Phil Wallbank and Tony Colombat. Brief discussion of proposal to waive membership fees for children of members under the age of 18. Brief discussion of proposal to award honorary membership with full voting rights to Lynda Baillie as a loyal supporter of the club. End of Business. Chairman’s review (incorporating Social Sec) The club has enjoyed a successful year - social nights have centred around Chipping with curry and pizza nights at the Sun. The Penninefest was rained off, but we still had a good turnout and an entertaining and educational talk from Ed Cleasby. The winter club nights have been well-attended, with plenty of new faces on show. Difficulties obtaining suitable venue still exist. The club continues to function well and seems to be serving the needs of its members. The membership secretary was praised for his work identifying those pilots who are not BHPA members or not paying PSC correct fees. Phil Colbert was thanked for his work on the AirWhere project which should prove to be a great benefit to all members and the wider paragliding community. Other prominent members include Jack Pimblett who is making amazing progress in the world of Acro; Simon Scott for his achievements as part of the British Paramotor Team; Simon Blake who has a new book out; Simon Baillie for his continued recovery to full fitness; Barney Woodhead for his XC performances and Richard Chadwick for his sterling work over the years as Treasurer. Looking forward to 2017, highlights should be a proposed Club Coach weekend; development of the AirWhere network; more Club Nights; Penninefest etc. To achieve these aims, the support of the members is essential, and the club will be exploring ways to expand participation beyond the 1/3 of the membership who regularly get involved. Communication with members needs work, but this is a 2-way progress and it is important the people make contact with the club if they want information, coaching etc. The Pendle webcam is still on course but has run into a siting obstacle. Subscription receipts are significantly up, thanks in great part to the Membership Sec’s hard work in chasing up non-payers or those still paying £19; still some way to go to reel them all in, but the list is shrinking. Accounts accepted by the meeting. Richard is stepping down after 6 years in post, and we thank him for his hard work and diligence. Membership Secretary’s Report We currently have around 175 members, of whom 36 are still paying only £19 - a list is available so that members can encourage these remaining few to amend their standing order. Problems remain with contacting members when emails, phone calls, text messages and postal letters go unanswered. BHPA checks on current membership status can meet with resistance if requested too frequently. Helmet stickers will continue to be sent out to those requesting them. Competition Secretary’s Report Most competitions were washed out by bad weather this year, including all 5 rounds of the BP Cup, and the Advance BCC challenge suffered a similar fate in our area. The LCC and Buttermere Bash were surprisingly successful despite poor forecasts. PSC performance in the National XC League was a little short of previous glory years as the Southern Clubs enjoyed the good conditions down there. Little outside communication beyond the routine. Main focus was the liaison with NWRAUG over the developments at LBIA. This has led to the creation of a new committee post - Airspace Officer - for which Phil Colbert has volunteered. The Secretary is standing down after 5 years, and thanks all the members for their support. Paul Hester has volunteered to stand for this position. Safety Officer’s Report (delivered by the Secretary) There have been no accidents or incidents involving members reported to the Safety Officer this year, although this does not mean that there were no reportable incidents. It is worth noting that one member was involved in an incident (reported correctly to the BHPA) involving a car being written off. It is comforting to note that the process of dealing with the expense of compensating the car owner was dealt with very efficiently by the BHPA insurers - a very good reason to be a member. The Safety Officer is standing down this year, and the club is very grateful for the important contribution made over the years. Brian Stewart has put himself forward for this post. Editor’s Report (delivered by the Secretary) The newsletter has been absent for a few months - initially due to a lack of material, and then as an experiment to judge the reaction of the members. The feeling of the meeting was that the newsletter is an important communication tool, and so will be re-started this year. Members were urged to contribute to this as much as possible. Improvements to the database of members’ addresses should make it possible to ensure that it is delivered effectively. Chief Coach’s Report This has been a quiet year on the coaching scene. We have moved to a bi-annual cycle of Pilot Theory lectures to fit more closely with demand. Coaches can now receive their annual endorsement by email, which makes it much easier to remain current. New BHPA resources to support new pilots and their coaches will make the process of progressing from CP much clearer to all. Some discussion centred around the possibility of winter coaching sessions in the village hall, and competition preparation. Power Officer’s Report While there are few Power pilots in the club, the Power Sec’s role is to act as a contact point to anyone wishing to fly paramotors or powered hang gliders to go about this the correct way, in safety. The site at Eddisford Bridge is available to all, by contacting the PO. While the pilot fatally injured last year was not a PSC member, he was known to many and our condolences go out to his family and friends. BHPA are investigating, despite his not being a member. Sub-20 Officer’s Report There have been no issues involving sub-20 wings this year. Members are encouraged to report any instances of unqualified or non-BHPA persons flying any kind of aircraft on our sites to report those to relevant club officers. Election of Committee: All positions were offered to the membership. Apart from those mentioned above volunteering to fill vacancies, no nominations were received. Consequently all posts were filled unopposed and carried unanimously. Chairman Graham Jones Social Sec Graham Jones Secretary Paul Hester Membership Sec Jim Ashley Treasurer Jim Ashley (combined post) Safety Officer Brian Stewart Sites Officer Andy Archer Webmaster Carl Fairhurst Editor Tony Colombat Competition Sec Simon Blake Chief Coach John Murphy Sub-20 Officer Andy McLoughlin Airspace Officer Phil Colbert (new post). Presentation of Awards The Competition Secretary presided over an entertaining award ceremony in which not only the winners were acknowledged, but also the ‘honourable mentions’ and the ‘nearly theres’. Best Fun Class John Baxby Best Sports Class Simon Blake Best XC from Pennine Site Phil Colbert PSC League Winner Phil Colbert Grid Challenge Simon Baillie Most Improved Pilot John Oliver Club Award Jack Pimblett Representing the Club Simon Scott William Marshall Trophy Andy Archer Main Welding Award (Bent Upright) Simon Blake PSC Loop League winner Paul Winterbottom. A big ‘thank you’ to everyone who attended to make a memorable night. Now let’s go flying . . .

PSC Safety Bulletin April 2019 - Supplement An incident with potentially serious consequences in Derbyshire reminds us of the need to take extra care when there are spectators watching. On holiday weekends with loads of pilots and members of the public around, there is a real risk of serious injury. Without going into detail, a small boy was injured by a landing paraglider and taken to hospital – fortunately it seems the line burns were not serious. Please take care around spectators; because they see no spinning props, no hot exhaust, no hard metal tubes, it all seems a safe as a bag of washing. We know the hazards: please ensure that members of the public are not put in danger. Suggest where they could get a better view and be safer. The consequences of a serious injury to a bystander don’t bear thinking about and would be awful for all concerned.

My introduction to the idea that we could get more out of pop culture than simple entertainment or a quick laugh came from the bookshelves that lined the walls of my family’s living room when I was a kid. There, tucked in alongside some of my father’s books on theology and biblical commentaries was The Gospel According to Peanuts. This best-seller was published in 1965 by Robert Short, a Presbyterian minister, and was followed up a few years later with The Parables of Peanuts. What both of these books did, and why my father, an Episcopal priest, had them in his library, was to offer a modern guide to Christian faith as taught through the lessons of Charles Schulz’s beloved cartoons. I was reminded of this today by an article by Jonathan Merritt at The Atlantic on the intentional spirituality at the heart of Charles Schulz’s work: Schulz … revolutionized his industry by using his strip to subtly raise religious questions about the Bible, prayer, the nature of God, and the end of the world. Schulz was a devoted Christian; unshell the Peanuts and you’ll find the fingerprints of his faith. By mixing Snoopy with spirituality, he made his readers laugh while inviting them into a depth of conversation uncommon to the funny pages. The beauty of Schulz’s approach was the soft touch, rather than the heavy hand, with which he used his cartoons as a vehicle to express the depth of his Christian faith. He was no raging evangelical firebrand, even when his characters directly quote from scripture. The joke was still the point, just not the only point: “You can grind out daily gags, but I’m not interested in simply doing gags,” Schulz would say. “I’m interested in doing a strip that says something and makes some comment on the important things in life.” Even when — perhaps especially when — he wasn’t quoting scripture, Schulz’s work was often using allusions that would strike a chord both with believers who would likely pick up the reference readily, as well as those who missed the reference but got the point anyway. A famous example, as Merritt’s article explains, was published in 1959 and seen at right (click the image to enlarge), in which Linus builds an elaborate sandcastle only to have it washed away by the rain. While many readers would probably catch the reference to the Gospel of Matthew and Jesus’ parable about the man who built his house on sand, the universality of the sentiment has far broader appeal than to just biblically literate Christians. As Merritt’s article points out, Schulz never stayed locked in a 1950s-era expression of Christianity. As his own faith evolved, and as he began to wrestle with challenging questions in his own spiritual journey, that questioning and puzzlement had their reflection in the comic strip: This mixture of hope and skepticism reflects Schulz’s own evolving faith, which came to assume an increasingly central role in his work. When you map religious references in Peanuts over time, the trend line shoots up and to the right. I’ve long believed that we can look to popular culture, whether comics, or TV shows, or film, to illumine important truths about important topics. That’s the impulse behind my use of movies in the classroom to encourage my university students wrestle with challenging questions related to conflict, identity, ethics, and politics. It’s a lesson I hope my students remember long after they leave my classroom. But it’s a lesson I first learned from Charles Schulz, Robert Short, and my dad.

I cannot believe that this is my last afternoon as a pregnant lady! I am scheduled to arrive at the birth center tomorrow at 6 a.m. and my c-section is scheduled for 8 a.m., bright and early! I’m so glad that I am the first one. The no-drinking-water after midnight is going to be hard for me, so the earlier I have the surgery, that much faster I can have something to drink, LOL 🙂 This morning I went for my pre-surgical testing, which was no big deal. Basically I filled out a bunch of forms, was told not to eat or drink after midnight, had two vials of blood drawn and peed in a cup. I’m so excited, yet nervous at the same time. Although I’ve had two c-sections before, both of those were after several hours of hard labord. It’s going to be so weird walking in there tomorrow, feeling absolutely fine. I have no idea if laptops are allowed at the birth center, so I might be offline until the weekend (although a girlfriend who recently gave birth at a different hospital was able to have her laptop with her, so maybe I’ll get lucky — but I’m not really going to count on that). In the meantime, I will have Drew update my Facebook status for me, since most of you are on there anyway. The next time I blog, I will be a mom of three! Wish me luck!

Fargo and Southern Railway Memorabilia Value Guide The Fargo and Southern Railway started operations in 1881 and stopped service in 1885 for a total period of operations of 4 years. After the Civil War railroads exploded in the US with hundreds of lines starting service all over the country. This was the the age of steam locomotives and rail travel was still a luxury. Fargo and Southern Railway items from this time period can be very valuable and items of most types that predate 1900 will be valuable if they are in good condition. Many collectors are looking for antique railroadiana that dates before 1900 so there is a strong market for anyone looking to sell. Fargo and Southern Railway operated routes across 3 states, this is an average amount across most railroads and is typical of small to mid size Eastern Railroads or mid size Western Railroads. Items from railroads of this size tend to be of average rarity so there usually isn't much of a premium price on items from these railroads unless the item is particularly hard to find Fargo and Southern Railway Operated Routes in the Following States: Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota

Goodbye, ColumbusIsn't that a title of a Phillip Roth novel? (Actually, a short story) Was it turned into a dreary movie? (Yes, indeed, with Richard Benjamin and Ali McGraw). I don't know (acutally, I do know because before I posted I looked up the title at Amazon) and I don't care (but I'm bored enough to feign caring). What made me think of the title, aside from the fact that today is Columbus Day, is how history is revised, sometimes purposely and sometimes via the inevitable filter of perception. My Grandmother doesn't quite realize that all history is revisionist in its nature (because of the necessarily limited perceptions of the historian); however, she objects (as do I) to conscious and supposedly reparative revisions. See, when she was a kid, Christopher Columbus had discovered America. When I was a kid, Christopher Columbus had actually discovered the New World (since he never set foot on mainland America, either North or South). Nowadays, children are taught that "Columbus," whose name was really Cristobal Colòn, didn't discover anything at all — not only were there already people there in the so-called "New World" (the indigenous peoples having discovered it some time earlier), but also because he thought he was somewhere else (he went to his grave thinking he was in Japan... which is kind of funny, when you think about it). Columbus has been reduced from a great national hero to a typical comic male who never admits he's really lost. "If this keeps up," Grandmother quips, "eventually Christopher Columbus won't even have left Spain." It seems that the current vogue in pedagogy is to minimize Christopher Columbus by negating old-fashioned assumptions about the man and by dwelling on the less pleasant aspects of his trip... that he and his crew introduced venereal diseases to the Caribbean, that they were only looking for weak natives to loot and exploit, that the entire Renaissance thrust of exploration and colonization was inherently evil. In my American Federation of Teachers academic year pocket calendar, today's date reads "Indigenous Peoples discover Columbus." I thought that was pretty funny, the first time I read it... but it shows quite clearly that the re-focus of thinking about Columbus as an interloper rather than an explorer is something that has been planned out for a specific purpose. "Indigenous Peoples discover Columbus" is just as formulaic an oversimplification as "Columbus discovers America." Either way of looking at it is true, to some extent, but both of these to-some-extent truths are inherently untruthful... for when you simplify history into an easily remembered formula, you have to leave out all of the innumerable extenuating circumstances. You essentially have to filter the facts, and filtering the facts turns them into an untruth. And then, when you choose which facts to leave out of your formula, you are engaging in Propaganda. And I feel that propaganda is inherently evil, because it results in a misunderstanding that benefits the stature of some person or school of thought while degrading the names of real people. Did you know, for example, that King Richard III of England never did any of the horrible things for which he is credited? But Shakespeare's fabulous play about that unfortunate ruler was more interesting than the real facts... and the subject and contents of that play were Tudor propaganda that apologized for the regicide of a sitting monarch and usurpation of the Throne of England performed by Henry Tudor (the character of "Richmond" in the play), later Henry VI. The reputation of a generally blameless man was sullied in the eye of the world in order that William Shakespeare might flatter Elizabeth I (Henry VI's great-granddaughter) and gain favor in the Tudor Court. The same thing is now being done to Christopher Columbus; perhaps for more noble reasons, but propaganda is propaganda no matter which way you turn it. Sure, there were Eurocentric evils involved in the exploration of the New World. Colonialism, exploitation, slavery, and religious persecution were the main motives in these explorations... very few of the Great Explorers were in it just for the fun of adventure. Most of them wanted gold and/or power, as well as or instead of adventure. While the thirst for knowledge of the world is commendable, very few commendable virtues come unalloyed with base desires: it's human nature. But when one writes history, the temptation is to cast people in shades of black and white. Certain historians prefer to think of the Explorers as great adventurers, selfless seekers of knowledge, and genuine humanitarians bringing the glories of civilization to the poor backward natives; others wish to cast the exact same people in the roles of ignorant exploiters, greedy spoilers, self-seeking destroyers hunting for new lands to plunder and new peoples to murder. But the truth is that they were all peu de toute, some of each... as is everybody else in this world. If you dug deep enough into Hitler's life, you would find some evidence of human compassion and goodness; if you searched hard enough into Mother Theresa's life, you would find moments of selfishness and intolerance. People are never purely good nor purely evil. And since History is the story of people, it cannot be simplified into terms of pure good and pure evil. By simplifying history, you reduce the great pageant of human experience into a bunch of useless dates and names; and through simplified pedagogy, you rob history of its purpose... because the Purpose of History is to give us to understand how things happen, how they came to be, and how we might consider conducting ourselves in the future. If we can understand the motives behind the great events of the past, if we can understand the mistakes or triumphs that resulted in us being where we are now, we can understand our own behavior, the behavior of others, and the behavior that might result in greater happiness and benefit in the future. It is said (first by George Santayana and then by a lot of other people) that "Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it." But it is my feeling that those who do not understand their fellow humans are condemned to a life of ignorance, anger, and loneliness. Yes, a knowledge of history does have its practical purposes in mapping the future, but I think that knowledge of history is more beneficial in understanding who people are and why they are the way they are. And for this to make any sense, you have to understand people's intentions as well as their actions. To judge the characters of the past (like Christopher Columbus) by our own modern standards (of having the entire planet and most of the galaxy mapped, of having learned the evils of colonialism, etc.) is the same as judging our children by the behavior we grew out of in our own childhoods. Should you be condemned as a bed-wetter if you aren't potty-trained? Should you be condemned for having a fourth-grade reading level when you're only in the third grade? Should you be condemned as ignorant when you've never been taught? Well, in the same vein, one has to ask: Should you be condemned as a destroyer of civilizations when you never understood that civilizations could exist that were not your own? Should you be condemned as a religious persecutor when you had no inkling that the bizarre rituals and practices of far-flung Africans were actual religions? Should you be condemned as a vile exploiter of human slaves when it had never once been suggested to you that those creatures were the same as yourself, men and women with minds and souls and blood just like yours, but only a different color of skin and shape of mouth or eye? These were radical and new ideas in the past, even though they have become commonplace in the present. Even though the ancient Greeks knew that the Earth was round (another thing once credited to Christopher Columbus which has been discarded), nobody had ever tried to go to the other side... and in 1492, the idea that the world was round was a fairly radical notion, just as the sun-centered solar-system was a radical idea (so radical that it landed Galileo in prison and Giordano Bruno in a heretic's pyre). In 1492, nobody really knew what gravity was. They didn't know what oxygen was. They didn't know that there was no such thing as spontaneous generation of life, that all living things in the world are born of parents and that all living things die. They were entirely unaware of the exact placement of organs and the particular makeup of tissues inside their own bodies. They had no means of measuring temperature, of measuring light, or even accurately measuring time. And so to judge the actions of long-dead people, for whom these basic tidbits of information were completely unknown, by the standards of living people, for whom this and so much more information is readily available and commonly understood, is the same as juding an infant by it's inability to attain its parents' simplest achievements, like defecating in a toilet or chewing its own food. And then, on the same token, to apologize for the behavior of long-dead people by editing the facts of their lives is even worse, because it denies the growth of the human species and robs our race of its historical significance. I believe the lesson here is to never judge anybody by any personal standard, because you can't know what they know and they can't know what you know. You can only, therefore, judge them by their ability to accessorize. So anyway... sometimes I think when (or if) I go back to school, I will major in History. Preferably cultural history and anthropology rather than military history and politics. I'm always fascinated by the ways people of different times and different countries dressed, the music they enjoyed, the dances they performed, the foods they ate, the houses they lived in, the family structures they built, the gods they worshipped and the methods by which they decorated their walls. Though I have greatly benefitted from my studies of political history and political science, I prefer to know about what Louis XIV wore to breakfast than what policies he signed. Well, time to step down from the podium. I'm going to go home and tutor my niece in the uses of the English language. My sister is home-schooling her daughter, but was baffled by possessive pronouns and many of the concepts that come after that. And since I know the English language fairly well (though I do make mistakes once in a while), I offered to help. I'm kind of excited about the opportunity to inculcate good grammar, but am trepidatious about my ability to reach my usually inattentive and sometime unbelievably annoying niece. Either way, it's bound to be more interesting than sitting in front of the TV and doing nothing.

Grace is defined by the Random House Dictionary a number of ways, with the third definition closest to the Biblical one: favor or goodwill. W.E. Vine’s Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words defines the Greek karis as “that which bestows or occasions pleasure, delight, or causes favorable regard.†Theologians describe it as unmerited favor. I say it is God blessing me in ways I do not deserve. I think we can all agree we love God’s grace. Why does God bless us with such grace? Simply, to do His will. “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.†(2 Corinthians 9:8) The Apostle Paul possibly knew more than any man who ever lived of the sufficiency of Christ’s grace. He experienced it on the Damascus Road when Jesus saved him. He also experienced it and heard of its sufficiency from Jesus Himself later in Paul’s ministry: “And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.†(2 Corinthians 12:7-10) I remember the exact moment when this passage’s power broke through to me. I was on a military exercise and we had to ride the bus 30 minutes from our billeting to where the exercise building was located. I had just read this chapter and the Holy Spirit allowed a heavenly revelation to dawn upon me. The only time in the Bible that Jesus said His strength would be perfect, that is complete, in me, is in my weakness. So what does this mean? It means that when I am tempted to do what is contrary to God’s Word to the point of failure, Jesus is there to help me through. Our pastor reminded us this past weekend of one of the myths about the Bible. You know those: “God helps those who help themselves; Cleanliness is next to godliness.†By the way, those were written by Benjamin Franklin in “Poor Richard’s Almanac.†Another myth about the Bible is that is says “God will never give us more than we can handle.†Now for those of you with the NTFV Bible (New Touchy-Feely Version) who are looking for “Your Best Life Now†may be stunned by this, but it is true. At best it is a poor recital of this verse: “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.†(1 Corinthians 10:13) What the Apostle Paul is saying is when we are tempted (or better yet tested, our faith that is), it is common to man. But when we face such testing, our God is faithful to not allow us to be tempted beyond what we are able to overcome because He provides us a way to escape from it and to bear it. Now that is a lot different than not being giving more than we can handle. The difference is we can still allow temptation to overcome us if we succumb to it instead of relying on Christ’s grace to see us through. “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.†See the difference? And this is the true meaning of one of the most famous verses in the Bible: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.†(Philippians 4:13) You could easily replace the verb “do†with “face†or “overcome.†Dear friend, what are you facing today? Does it seem insurmountable? Are you overwhelmed by events? Do you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Savior? He will not only forgive your sins, but He will pour out abounding grace upon your life. You see, that abounding grace overcomes the penalty of sin. But also, Christ gives you abundant spiritual power to overcome the power of sin. More on that tomorrow… If you’re receiving these devotionals for the first time and would like to receive them on a regular basis, please email me at [email protected] and use “Please add to Devotional List†as the subject.

Through Facebook, I met the lovely and talented Pauline Stephens, Event Planner Extraordinaire and Owner of Elations Weddings and Events in Richmond, VA and keeper of the Wedding Overdose Blog. It was love at first sight for me – one of her beautiful yellow bouquet images in her profile, and I instantly knew that Pauline also had some serious flower talent!! Pauline made a trip to the New York area and we met up to take some images of some fabulous bouquets. I can’t wait to shoot some of her centerpieces as well. Here are just a few of her many beauties…and various shots at various angles from our session, and I used my favorite chair quite a few times 😉 Nothing like a little bling, eh? These were all so beautiful. Here’s to hoping I can convince Pauline that she totally needs to come to my house and decorate my porch for springtime with her floral arranging for another Shoot-Scoop Feature Presentation! Please do check out her website! She’s totally cool and creative. Pauline, it was a pleasure! Hope to see you again soon!

- Evil for evil's sake. This antagonist has no real reason to be evil/do evil, they just do it because they can. - Evil because it can grant immortality. This antagonist has latched onto an idea that promises immortality, yet to do so, they have to perform some sort of horrific act that any sane thinking person would not do. - Evil by nature/nurture. This antagonist was "born into" whatever position that they are in, be it a psychotic serial murderer, or dictator that is to "carry on the tradition of their lineage". Bleh. Drivel. Some of it can be entertaining drivel (Harry Potter is a current example of this), but really, it's at best brain candy, as opposed to good stories. Let's put aside the evil versus good discussion for a moment and discuss psychology for a moment. Most antagonists are human, or (as in most fantasy settings) have similar mores to humans concerning the basic principals of life and the treatment of others. Most people have some sort of internal moral compass. Some may not match our own, but they have a set of morals that guide their decisions. Most people would rather be left alone to their own devices. "You let me play here, I'll let you play there, we'll be kosher." There are outliers, power grabbers, those that wish to be benevolent dictators, but honestly, most of us want to do our own thing, and not be bothered too much. Now, before we continue with the idea of believable antagonists, let's look at what makes a great, believable protagonist. Most good fiction is written in such a manner that the reader tries to put themselves in the shoes of the protagonist. We live these characters lives with them. We hurt when they hurt. We celebrate internally their victories. Good protagonists we can empathize with. They breathe. They live in our minds. The best protagonists will move our emotions and lives in such a manner that it gives us pause as we reflect on our own lives and wonder how better to emulate the good qualities of the protagonist. One of the most common definitions of "hero" is "a man distinguished by exceptional courage and nobility and strength". I refine this further by saying that a hero is "a normal person performing extraordinary feats in extraordinary circumstances". A good hero we can click with. We *want* them to win. We *want* Joe Sixpack to become an avenger and kick the crap out of people who deserve it. We *want* to be that person, because, from our perspective, they *are* the everyman, living with unspeakable demons in their lives, and dealing with them in a manner that idealizes the human spirit of tenacity and justice. So, with the above in mind, let me break down what to me makes a believable antagonist: - They are the same kind of person that the hero is. The best antagonists are cut from a similar mold that the protagonist is. The closer the better. It lets us know that there *is* a darker path that the protagonist could have walked, but chose not to because of decisions made, and events witnessed. - They have a noble goal. The thing they fight the protagonist for is admirable. They desire good ends to their actions. They believe, and can make you believe that their goal is just. - They, like the protagonist, believe they are on the right path to reaching their goal. They have considered options, weighed consequences, and struggled with the decision that they have come to. They walk the path they do, not because it is right, they walk the path because it is the only way they see they can attain their goal. Get close on the three above, and you'll have a readable antagonist that is a worthy adversary to your everyman hero. An example of a *great* antagonist, from the most unlikely of places, Hollywood: Magneto from "X-men, the movie". Magento and his adversary Doctor Xavier are very similar: Both (while extraordinary) are cut from similar molds as people who have extraordinary abilities. They both have the same goal of integrating these extraordinary people that have started evolving from humanity into the rest of humanity in a manner that they can coexist peacefully. Magneto, however, has come to the conclusion that humanity will not accept this new stratification, these superior beings, peacefully, if at all. The rest of humanity will only accept this if the leaders of the world deem it necessary for them to do so. His plan is to forcibly cause this transformation in the leaders of the world. Even if it may cause the death of some or all of these leaders. That, my friends, is an *excellent* protagonist, and the story told is wonderful.

In Spanish Food For Foreign People There are approximately 80 restaurants (including gastro bars) within the town of Miami and surrounding areas that come under the course of “Spanish food”. Therefore, I needed to create a primary analysis which has taken me a few days. One of the sites examined, I discovered four groups, for or fewer well defined: 1) Restaurant Spanish “modern”: they’ve good food though some might appear costly, it’s not. They’re usually situated in locations that are fashionable. Management and chefs are often youthful and also have leadership development training and recognized experience of Europe, Asia, and also the U . s . States restaurants. Spanish dishes retain their essence but fall more inside a type of presentation of recent Spanish cuisine. The climate is extremely careful and exquisitely decorated local places of night glasses for individuals. 2) Restaurant Spanish “traditional” decorated with typical souvenirs of The country, for instance, flamenco dancers, wine casks, many Spanish flags, posters of old bullfights, etc. The meals, traditional, remarkable if ready. Don’t miss the paella, chickpeas, potato omelette, puddings, etc. Local makers really don’t have college practicing local management but have experience as restaurant proprietors. These leaders have died employed in their restaurants. Frequently the area of not often essential. That old local could be 10 or five years. 3) Spanish Restaurants “with history”: places well-known in Miami and around simply because they carry a long time as reference of real Spanish cuisine. Still they’re maintaining high-quality standards with appropriate prices. The proprietors have years of effective experience and don’t care an excessive amount of competition. Your company name is the best guarantee. 4) Spanish Restaurants “but not too Spanish” may be the situation opened up through the second or third generation of Cuban or Puerto Rican established in Miami restaurants. Typically the Cubans or Puerto Ricans have Spanish ancestry. Is how we discover some practices that don’t fall inside a Spanish meal, for instance, paellas where the grain isn’t seen because things are engrossed in peas, red peppers, corn along with other stuff that the paella doesn’t carry. The paella shouldn’t lead chorizo, or peas, or eco-friendly asparagus. I don’t mean bad food or don’t have their fans, but ideas have started to discuss authentic Spanish food. Which means this web site is known as “Spanish Food for Foreign People,” because my motivation would be to be aware of genuine Spanish cuisine.

Brewery: Stillwater Artisanal Ales Location: Baltimore, MD Style: Farmhouse Saison Price: $12.99 750ml Before I sampled this beer, I did some research to learn the origins of farmhouse ales and to gain an understanding of what is the desired outcome of brewing this style. A simple search on the World Wide Web led me to discover plenty of articles about farmhouse ales. One article in particular was pretty straight forward and gave me some of the historical context that's behind this type of beer. To synthesize my learning, a farmhouse ale is historically a style of beer that uses whatever is "around the farm." Unlike many other craft beer styles, farmhouse ales (also called "saisons") are imperfect. They're a bit messy and unclean. Farmhouse ales do not have the same well-groomed hygiene as their craft counterparts. The yeasts are often wild and erratic. The grains may be a hodgepodge of leftovers. Basically, farmhouse ales represent a time when farmers used whatever resources they had to produce something that closely resembled the type of beer they could drink at the local saloon. Note: I don't actually know that for sure; this is my archetype of a 19th Century farmer. Hard-working alcoholics. All of them. Now that we know how cool farmhouse ales are, let's talk about Stillwater's Autumnal.This beer is a dark amber in color. The carbonation is evident in the pour as it left about three-fingers worth of head. Lots of lacing on the glass. Fortunately, the head dissipates quickly. Lots of spice, yeast, and sweet fruits on the nose. As the beer warmed, I could pick up some caramel in the aroma as well. The taste is a Belgian bomb of sugar, spices, and dark fruits. Slightly sour. Grape, ginger, and figs are the dominant flavors up front before the Belgian funk shows up. This beer has a creamy caramel finish that took my by surprise. With all the carbonation that hits the tongue up front, I wasn't expecting such a creamy finish. The carbonation fades in the mouth and allows this beer to end with a smooth coating on the tongue. At first, I wanted to write about how this is a decent beer, but sort of forgettable, and then I remembered what I learned about farmhouse ales. These are brewed to "get by" on the farm. They aren't meant to blow your socks off with a bag of tricks. They come from a time of simplicity and hard work. They're rustic. And when I think about that, I think Autumnal successfully embodies this style. It's not the best beer I've tasted, but it's satisfying. I think that's all it needs to be.

Mahler-Besse increased their vineyard holdings in this appellation when they bought Chateau La Couronne in 1992. Mahler-Besse had made all the necessary investments to produce a great wine: new cellars and truncated-cone-shaped vats unique in the appellation. The name Cheval Noir derives from an elegant and powerful black "work" horse back in the 19th century that was the predecessor of today's sustainable vineyards.

President Hage Geingob says that hate speech fuels extremist views and is a cause of great concern, which has seen a growing trend of extremism worldwide. Geingob made these remarks at the global ministerial conference on the role of education in addressing and building resilience against hate speech held virtually on Tuesday, 26 October. “This trend poses a great danger to our efforts of promoting multilateralism, cooperation and seeking peaceful solutions to conflict. Hate speech plants the seeds of disunity, hatred and intolerance, leading to breaking down the fabric of basic human values,” said the President. Geingob was also the co-host of the conference. He said that hate speech is a catalyst for exclusivity and a direct threat to the shared values of caring, solidarity and compassion. “We believe that it is in unity that our strength lies, and it is in pursuing policies of inclusion that we will build robust processes, systems and institutions that will imbue trust, confidence and cooperation in our efforts of building peaceful, prosperous and inclusive societies. Hate has no place in society. It distracts from the inherent human capacity to show compassion and uplift the human spirit.” Geingob further argued that the COVID-19 pandemic has also amplified existing global concerns about the spread and use of hate speech. According to the President, the pandemic has created new vulnerable groups targeted by hate speech. The President, however, did not offer the context in which these groups have been targeted. “We must ensure that education and training, especially at schools, including via online platforms, also addresses COVID-19 related hate speech, disinformation and misinformation by encouraging critical thinking, social and emotional skills and responsible engagement through global citizenship education and human rights education.”

Gar Alperovitz, a leading scholar and activist in the movement to build a new economy, will speak on “The Quietly Deepening Political and Economic Crisis: Possibilities for an America beyond Corporate Capitalism” on Friday, January 24, at 7 p.m. at University United Methodist Church. He also will participate in a conference on local efforts to build that new economy on the morning of Saturday, January 25, at the “5604 Manor” community center. Cooperatives, social enterprises, public banks and other new structures provide a new vision for the next economy. Alperovitz, the Lionel R. Bauman Professor of Political Economy at the University of Maryland, will explain how this work, especially the various forms of cooperative ownership, is helping to lay the groundwork for important new directions in the coming era that will see major political and economic changes. Alperovitz’s latest book is What Then Must We Do?: Straight Talk about the Next American Revolution, in which he argues for a new-economy movement that can democratize the ownership of wealth, strengthen communities in diverse ways, and be governed by policies and institutions sophisticated enough to manage a large-scale, powerful economy. He is also the author of America Beyond Capitalism: Reclaiming Our Wealth, Our Liberty, and Our Democracy, which diagnoses the long-term structural crisis of the American economic and political system, and Unjust Deserts: Wealth and Equality in the Knowledge Economy (with Lew Daly), Making a Place For Community (with Thad Williamson and David Imbroscio), Rebuilding America (with Jeff Faux), Atomic Diplomacy and The Decision to Use the Atomic Bomb. Alperovitz is a founding principal of the University of Maryland-based Democracy Collaborative, a research institution developing practical, policy-focused, and systematic paths towards ecologically sustainable, community-oriented change and the democratization of wealth. The Saturday morning gathering will begin at 8:30 am with coffee and a light breakfast. The first panel at 9:15 am, “Worker Cooperatives 101,” will feature Cooperation Texas staff and worker/owners on the basics of worker cooperatives. The second panel at 10:45 am will feature Alperovitz in conversation with Don Baylor (the Senior Policy Analyst on Economic Opportunity for the Center for Public Policy Priorities) on “The Way Forward,” discussing challenges and opportunities in building the new economy. The events are sponsored by the University United Methodist Church and Cooperation Texas, an Austin-based non-profit committed to the creation of sustainable jobs through the development, support and promotion of worker-owned cooperatives. Location (Saturday): 5604 Manor, 5604 Manor Road, Austin, 78723

In today’s interconnected and fast-paced business landscape, the efficient management of the supply chain has become a paramount concern for companies worldwide. From sourcing raw materials to delivering finished products to customers, every aspect of the supply chain must run seamlessly to ensure competitiveness, customer satisfaction, and cost-effectiveness. Achieving excellence in supply chain management is no easy feat, but it is made possible through the critical role played by logistics services. Logistics services encompass a wide range of activities that are integral to supply chain management. These services involve planning, implementing, and controlling the efficient movement and storage of goods, services, and information from the point of origin to the point of consumption. Key components of logistics services include transportation, warehousing, inventory management, order fulfillment, and distribution. Efficiency and Cost Savings: One of the primary benefits of logistics services is their ability to enhance efficiency within the supply chain. By streamlining processes, optimizing routes, and minimizing idle time, logistics services help companies reduce operational costs significantly. This cost-saving aspect is particularly critical in an era where businesses are constantly seeking ways to improve their bottom line. Excellence in supply chain management goes hand in hand with customer satisfaction. Timely and accurate deliveries are vital for maintaining customer trust and loyalty. Informasi penting daftar driver ekspedisi plays a pivotal role in ensuring that products reach their intended destinations on time and in the right condition. This leads to improved customer satisfaction and can even serve as a competitive advantage in the market. In an increasingly globalized world, companies often source materials and sell products on a global scale. Logistics services enable businesses to expand their reach to international markets. They navigate the complexities of international trade, including customs regulations, import/export requirements, and diverse transportation modes. Through logistics services, companies can access new markets, diversify their customer base, and capitalize on global opportunities. Efficient inventory management is another key aspect of logistics services. By maintaining optimal inventory levels, companies can reduce carrying costs, minimize the risk of stockouts, and improve cash flow. Inventory management systems, often integrated with logistics services, use advanced algorithms to forecast demand and ensure that inventory is strategically positioned throughout the supply chain. In an era marked by environmental consciousness, logistics services are also evolving to embrace sustainability. Companies are increasingly seeking eco-friendly transportation options, optimizing delivery routes to reduce emissions, and adopting sustainable packaging materials. These efforts not only reduce the environmental footprint but also resonate with consumers who prioritize sustainable practices. The digital transformation of logistics services has been a game-changer in supply chain management. Technologies such as GPS tracking, RFID, blockchain, and AI-driven analytics have revolutionized how logistics services operate. Real-time visibility, data-driven decision-making, and predictive analytics have become invaluable tools for optimizing supply chains and ensuring the highest level of service excellence. Excellence in supply chain management is an ongoing endeavor. Logistics service providers continually strive to enhance their processes and adapt to changing market dynamics. Continuous improvement initiatives such as Lean Six Sigma and Total Quality Management help identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and opportunities for optimization.

David Balto | Special to WJW One of the 613 mitzvot, or holy deeds, is being a shaliach, a messenger for someone else. Some give tzedakah for others to carry on a journey and ask them “please be my shaliach” because they believe God gives special protection to those traveling to do a mitzvah. By giving them the task to deliver the tzedakah, we are ensuring that their journey is a safe one. This is how former Washington resident Nathan Weissler, now an oleh, became a shaliach. Jessup Correctional Institution is Maryland’s largest prison with almost 3,000 inmates. I know of one inmate there who strives to be Jewish, focusing his life on prayer and study. The conditions are harsh. He shares a 6-by-9-foot cell 22 hours a day. It takes extreme discipline to find the spiritual. He tries to pray and study every day. There are few Jews for him to connect with, but he continues on his journey as best he can. Last Chanukah, the prison told its Jewish inmates that there would be no lights for the Festival of Lights. No candles, no tealights. So how to celebrate? The prisoner had read how when in a Soviet prison, Natan Sharansky would find creative ways to celebrate. So the Jewish prisoner in Jessup decided to make his own “menorah.” On a small sheet of paper he drew a menorah and each night he drew another candle and said the prayers. In this way, he created the miracle of light, of illuminating the chambers of the soul. The prisoner had one wish. To have his “menorah” brought to the place of the Temple, where the original menorah stood. He wanted his slip of paper placed in a crack in the Western Wall. But how to do that? And that’s where our shaliach fits in. Weissler belongs to Ohev Sholom — the National Synagogue, in Washington, which provides services to Maryland inmates, assisting them with prayer and study. The prisoner wrote to Ohev about his “menorah” which it gave to Weissler, who was visiting Washington. Weissler carried the “menorah” to Israel and placed it in the Wall. You may notice that the “menorah” has only eight candles. The shamash is missing. That may be because Weissler is the shamash, the helper who assisted in completing the mitzvah. Why does the shamash candle stand above all the other candles? What is true on Chanukah is true on Yom Ha’atzmaut: We are strongest, we are most fully human, when we help one another. David Balto is a Washington-area chaplain.

Welcome to Well Adjusted Animal! The Well Adjusted Animal provides animal chiropractic, canine rehabilitation therapy and canine conditioning alongside your existing veterinarian or in the comfort of your own home. Having competed in agility, herding and obedience since 1998, Dr. Kim has a great knowledge of the wear and tear on our canine athletes from these sports. The key to keeping your dog strong and sound is prevention through individualized conditioning programs to help your athlete make those tight turns, quick stops and contacts without injury. Conditioning isn’t just for canine athletes. Conditioning can prevent injuries for active dogs that love to hike, run or bike with their owners. When a dog has sustained an injury or had surgery its quality of life can be improved through rehabilitation. Orthopedic and neurologic problems, post-operative, weight, and pain management are all addressed during the dog’s rehabilitation session. If a problem is identified early, our pets recover faster. An added bonus is the enjoyment dogs receive from the exercises and stimulation. The old adage “use it or lose it” certainly applies to your geriatric dogs. There is so much more we could be doing for your dogs to help them get around better. Something as simple as stretches in the morning can help make your dog comfortable enough to go up and down the stairs. Controlling their pain and keeping them strong can help them stay an active part of the family. Animal Chiropractic is a field of animal health care that focuses on the preservation and health of the neuro-musculo-skeletal system. The nervous system controls everything that happens in your animals. The spine is a very complex system that involves bones, ligaments, muscles and nerves. If the movement and biomechanics of the spine become dysfunctional, they can interfere with the the nerves branching off of the spinal. As this occurs, your animal can lose normal mobility; resulting in stiffness, tension, pain and even organ dysfunction. Additionally, when normal movement is affected, and left unattended, it will ultimately impact your animal’s entire wellbeing and quality of life. The goal of an animal chiropractor is to restore function and mobility to the compromised vertebra in an effort to re-establish neurologic transmissions. Animal Chiropractic is not meant to replace traditional veterinary care. It is an integrative method that when used in conjunction with good traditional veterinary care, will provide years of happy and healthy living. It is an effective means of restoring and maintaining their strength and soundness. And by exploring and treating the root causes of your animal’s aches, pains and illnesses, will ensure maximum improvement, top performance and an exceptional quality of life for the animal companions we love.

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, two showrooms really stood out to me during my first visit to High Point: Visual Comfort & Co. and Jaipur. I already shared my experience at Visual Comfort and my meeting with Aerin Lauder. Today, I’m bringing you news from Jaipur Rugs. One of the reasons that we put Jaipur on our must-see list was because of its newly released Kate Spade collection of rugs, throws, and pillows. What I wasn’t expecting was to be impressed by everything beyond the Kate Spade items. I was! It was an absolutely beautiful showroom, and there were so many items I wanted to lug home! Here, have a look: And from Jaipur’s website, here are some of the poufs, pillows, and rugs that I think would look great in so many spaces: pouf – MLF04 pouf – FOA02 pouf – UNK03 pillow – YKN08 pillow – YKN20 pillow – NGP34 Astor by Kate Spade – AKN10 Aston – ATO02 City – CT82 Flat Iron – Kate Spade – FKN04 Gramercy – Kate Spade – GKN20 Gorgeous, right? I’m sure you can now see why Jaipur really captured my attention at High Point. In just a few days, I’ll be joining crowds of other design enthusiasts at High Point Market in North Carolina. I’m pumped! I’m excited to see what’s up-and-coming in the design industry, and I’m hoping to be amazed by cool pieces of furniture and textiles. For anyone writing about, talking about, or dreaming about design, this is the market to attend. In preparation for the trip, I’ve read these handy High Point Market tips-and-insights articles (avoid being overwhelmed by the scale of the market; map out secret places to eat), and I’ve browsed the list of exhibitors. I’m also keen to follow #designbloggerstour, which is a hashtag that a group of design bloggers will use as they explore the market. I also found this Rue article to be quite useful as well. Can you tell I like to research? image via High Point Market images via High Point Market image via Rue High Point Market has just about 12 million square feet of space to shop. 12 million! This boggles my mind. (Note to self: wear comfortable shoes.) I’ll be sharing my High Point Market highlights on Instagram and Twitter as quickly as I possibly can. I’ll also be sure to share my experiences right here in a few weeks. In the meantime, if you’ve been to the Market, please do share your advice!

Should The New York Yankees Be Worried About The Boston Red Sox? As good as the New York Yankees have been, don't sleep on the Boston Red Sox. Whiley they are currently 13 and a half games back of their bitter rivals from the Bronx, they have dug themselves out of deep hole and are continuing to win ball games. The Red Sox can hit as they have three guys in Rafael Devers, Xander Bogaerts, and JD Martinez who all hit above .300. for batting average. The main problem with them to start the season was their starting pitching. They have now receieved some quality starts from guys like Nick Pivetta, Michael Wacha, Nathan Eovaldi, and sometimes Garrett Whitlock. Here is my quick take on this from the Times Union: Don’t count out the Boston Red Sox. While I don’t think they will catch the New York Yankees, the Red Sox are a playoff team and when ace pitcher Chris Sale returns, they will be a major factor in the second half of the season. The offense is plenty good enough, led by a red hot Trevor Story. Manager Alex Cora has a way of pushing all right buttons, and Boston is very much a dangerous team in the American League East. MJ and I had a quick discussion on this earlier this morning right here on Big Board Sports. Below is our conversation on the Boston Red Sox. It will be tough for the entire American League East to catch the New York Yankees at this blistering pace, but don't ignore Boston. They have owned the Yankees recently and manager Alex Cora is a major reason why.

Woolly mammoths could be brought back from extinction after a preserved body of one of the ancient animals was found frozen in the snowy wastes of Siberia, scientists hope. The mammoth, which took its last steps around 40,000 years ago, is in such good condition that biologists believe they may be able to clone the creature. An autopsy of the Ice Age beast, which has been nicknamed Buttercup by scientists, will be shown in a documentary later this month. Back from the dead? Scientists hope to bring woolly mammoths back from extinction after a preserved body of the ancient animal was found frozen in Siberia An autopsy of the huge creature – nicknamed Buttercup – will be shown in a Channel 4 documentary later this month The Channel 4 programme will also examine pioneering work on cloning the woolly mammoth, which is taking place in South Korea and the US. Scientists hope that, eventually, they will be able to reintroduce the huge creatures back into the wild, tens of thousands of years after they became extinct. Insung Hwang, a South Korean geneticist, told the Independent: ‘Bringing back the mammoth either through cloning or genetic engineering would be an extremely long process. We’re trying hard to make this possible within our generation.’ ‘That’s why we have to start discussing the implications now. Some of our colleagues are still working on analysing the genome from Buttercup’s specimen. This is a long and complicated process that is unlikely to be finished anytime in the near future.’ Dr Tori Herridge, an expert on mammoth biology at the Natural History Museum who took part in the work, thinks cloning the animal would cause too much suffering for surrogate Asian elephants used in the process. She said: ‘The guys from South Korea, who are collecting tissue for cloning, were excited because the better preserved the tissue, the greater their hopes were that there would be some intact DNA. The remains of the mammoth, which took its last steps around 40,000 years ago, are in such good condition that biologists believe they may be able to clone the creature The scientists hope that, eventually, they will be able to reintroduce the huge creatures back into the wild, tens of thousands of years after they became extinct ‘The most fundamental step and ethical concern with this kind of procedure is that you need to have an Asian elephant surrogate mum at some point. Cloning a mammoth will require you to experiment on probably many, many Asian elephants. ‘As a palaeontologist, you normally have to imagine the extinct animals you work on. ‘So actually coming face-to-face with a mammoth in the flesh, and being up to my elbows in slippery, wet, and – frankly – rather smelly mammoth liver, counts as one of the most incredible experiences of my life. It’s up there with my wedding day. ‘The information gleaned from Buttercup’s autopsy about her life and death, and the future discoveries that will come from analyses of her muscles and internal organs, will add to our understanding of these magnificent Ice Age beasts.’ The adult female was discovered in May 2013. At 8ft tall, the mammoth, who is estimated to have died at the age of 50, is around the same size as an elephant. Most of her body, three legs, her head and her trunk were still intact, despite scientists believing Buttercup was eater by predators after becoming stuck in a bog.

Your phone knows almost all there is to know about you. Where you work and live, where you travel, who you’re friends with, what you write in your emails and messages. The same is true for many of the apps you use, but some are nosier than others. The ones on this list are the worst apps for your privacy according to Norton, according to online pokies for Australia. Facebook is probably the worst app for privacy, as it tracks you across all its apps and websites. It even tracks you when you log off Facebook. The app requires almost every permission there is, including: Your contacts, call logs, and text messages Your camera and microphone Your internal storage In essence, Facebook wants full control of your device and claims it’s necessary for the app’s functionality. It knows when you log in and how long you spend on the platform. It tracks where you go, what you buy, what you browse. Facebook collects all this information to serve you targeted ads. What’s more, the company has leaked its user data through numerous breaches. Facebook has proven time and again that your personal data isn’t safe in their hands. Facebook Messenger is also one of the worst apps for privacy, as it does not use end-to-end encryption. The messaging app probably stores your private messages in plain text on their servers. If that’s the case, they can be reached by any employee with login credentials. Mark Zuckerberg has admitted that the messaging app automatically scans all the links and images you send to your friends. When the algorithm finds them suspicious, moderators read your messages and block them if they do not meet company policy. It is true that these measures stop fake news and unlawful content from spreading. However, you cannot trust Facebook to use your data only for good. Remember that Facebook: Has always valued growth over user privacy Has been breached numerous times Stored logins in plain text Logged text messages and phone calls without informing users about this practice Asked users for email passwords to spam their contacts 3. Weather apps Your shiny new weather app wants to access your location. Sounds reasonable enough – it can’t tell the weather if it doesn’t know where you are. But after you grant permission, the app tracks your location 24/7 and sells this data to advertisers, which can put your phone security and privacy at risk. Such apps are numerous, and they all sound the same: The Weather Channel App And it’s not only the weather apps you need to worry about. It can be any app that provides local news or tells about events in your city or informs you about new restaurants worth visiting. Any of those may be trying to get your data for location-based advertising. Weather apps will sell data on where you work, how you commute, who’s your physician, and what gym you frequent. There is no guarantee that your location data will be handled properly. It could be leaked, or sold further down the line. Image if someone from your area obtained your location data, even without your name. - Words with Friends and other mobile multiplayer games Multiplayer games are all about interaction and player engagement. You solve puzzles, level up, and have fun with friends and family. However, games like Words with Friends collect an obscene amount of personal data, making them one of the worst apps for privacy. This isn’t a problem with casino en ligne en france, as the platform protects your privacy with advanced tech. Zynga, which created Words with Friends, the megahit FarmVille, and many other successful games, tracks and logs all kinds of personal data: first and last name age and birthday contacts from the address book everything players post in the message boards the contents of chats and messages between players approximate physical location basically, any publicly available info they can find

Fresh, funny, and imbued with infectious energy, Northerny tells a much-needed and compelling story of growing up and living in the North. Here are no tidy tales of aurora borealis and adventures in snow. For Dawn Macdonald, the North is not an escape, a pathway to enlightenment, or a lifestyle choice. It’s a messy, beautiful, and painful point of origin. People from the North see the North differently and want to tell their own stories in their own way, including about their experiences growing up on the land, getting an education, and struggling to find jobs and opportunities. Expertly balancing lyric reflection and ferocious realism, Macdonald busts up the cultural myths of self-interest and superiority that have long dominated conversations about both Northern spaces and working-class identities. About the author Dawn Macdonald lives in Whitehorse, Yukon, where she grew up in a cabin down a dirt road without electricity or running water. She studied applied mathematics and physics at university, and went to her scholarship interview wearing shoes she had found at the dump. Her summer student projects in space physics involved numerical modeling of the northern lights. Her poetry appears in magazines such as The Antigonish Review, Asimov’s Science Fiction, Canadian Literature, The Fiddlehead, FOLIO, Grain, Literary Review of Canada, The Malahat Review, OxMag, Strange Horizons, and Vallum: A contemporary poetry, among others. Northerny is her first book. “In Northerny, Dawn Macdonald tempers a poetic soulfulness with a comic’s sense for absurdity and punch. These poems speak with smart humor and wit, linguistic delight, and honest observations spiked with confession, always with an ear, too, for what their poet can’t say. Macdonald’s take on born-and-raised life in the north avoids romantic quagmires with a well-cured settler colonial self-consciousness. Macdonald resists worn expectations in this fresh expansion of northern literature rich with voice, earned insight, and meaning.” Jeremy Pataky, author of Overwinter “Northerny echolocates around the rural, urban, and more-than-human worlds with unflinching curiousity. Macdonald’s poetry bewilders language, making it romp, flit, and twist. Her images are in turn luminous and jarring cut with knife-sharp wit, unafraid to trespass against our expectations.” Clea Roberts, author of Auguries “Dawn Macdonald's poetry is alive with curiosity and truth. She speaks in conversation at times soft and at times bitter, creating images from a reality that can be obscure yet familiar. Macdonald's singular work reveals the unromantic beauty of a storied northern world full of lichen, kingfishers, and dog hair. Her poems open new paths in poetry from the high latitudes. This work is a bright addition to any library.” Ernestine Hayes, Alaska State Writer Laureate 2017-2018

Chomping / champing / championing / churlish / … / There’s a wolf at the door / that looks exactly like me Who is the “whiny baby” in this book? Rather than calling names or hurling insults, the candid poems in this collection most often implicate the poet herself. Expansive in form and voice, the poems in Julie Paul’s second collection offer both love letters and laments. They take us to construction sites, meadows, waiting rooms, beaches, alleys, gardens, and frozen rivers, from Montreal to Hornby Island. They ask us to live in the moment, despite the moment. Including a spirited long poem that riffs on the fairy tale “Three Billy Goats Gruff,” these poems are like old friends that at once console and confess. They blow kisses, they remember, and they celebrate the broken and the lost alongside the beautiful. At turns frank, peevish, introspective, and mischievous, the poems share sincere and intimate perspectives on the changing female body, our natural and built landscapes, and the idiosyncrasies of modern life. Whiny Baby calls on us to simultaneously examine and exult in our brief time on earth. About the author Julie Paul is the author of The Jealousy Bone and The Pull of the Moon. Her stories, poems, and essays have been published in numerous journals, including the New Quarterly, the Malahat Review, the Fiddlehead, the Dalhousie Review, Geist, and Canadian Living, and in the anthologies Coming Attractions 07 and Women Behaving Badly. Learn more about Julie at juliepaul.ca. “Whiny Baby is garden and grit, wit and compassion. Julie Paul is unafraid to name what visits us as writers and as human beings: longing and grief, lust and greed and hunger, and moments of a rich and clarifying light. Framed through humour and wry self-implication, these are poems of great generosity that speak the world in all of its fraught complexity.” Jenna Butler “Paul displays genuine courage in confronting the question of whether artistic practice is a viable form of self-determination despite all that threatens to undermine it.” Montreal Review of Books "Is it ‘smoke, pollen, the lack of self-restraint’ that has me tearing up as I dive, whole body, into the poems in Whiny Baby? Yes, but also it is the incredible female voice here, the deeply emotionally connected woman living and being in the world. It is middle age, childhood, and motherhood. It is the mother who irons her young adult son’s shirts to be close, it is the ‘chair that was never guaranteed to still be there / when the music stopped,’ and it is that ‘no one cooks for you’ once a beloved Nana is gone. It is the big questions and the small moments that nearly answer them. These poems recalibrate, they check in." Yvonne Blomer "Julie Paul’s poems are suffused with daily light, with wit and humour, and with the unexpected gift of grace. ‘I am here to offer company,’ she writes, “… a gesture of love on a sunny morning.” Her company is the best kind, funny and wise. I love her careful craft, her supple lines that follow one another as naturally as water in a stream, riffling over rocks, and the deeply attentive care she pays to the world around her, at her feet, in the sky and in branches of the trees shading her walks. Read these poems for their beauty, their surprising turns of phrase, their emotional depth, and for the space they hold for all of us within this generous book." Theresa Kishkan “Trust me, Whiny Baby is a song you want to hear on repeat. These poems demonstrate Julie Paul’s range; her voice is by turns tender, lyrically buoyant, clever, funny, and wryly self-aware. Some of these poems are as distilled as the best of Kay Ryan and some are abundant, lushly playful, offering the sort of wisdom and solace encountered in Mary Oliver’s work. In being attentive to ‘what humans do,’ Julie Paul’s poems illuminate ‘the struggle to love as best as possible what’s right in front of you.’ No small gift.” Susan Elmslie "Whiny Baby’s perceptive heart spots a spelling mistake or a blue jay from a hundred feet away. The speaker in these poems is Cohen’s pretty woman in the darkened door, crying ‘why not ask for more.’ Her candour, her caramel syllables, keep me reading! More priest than queen, she listens to grass, floats dead man, is a reason to stay together. Whiny Baby is a self-aware witness in which feeling is the ground, the scars, the hope-soaked prayer between the lines." Cornelia Hoogland

Following their first meeting of the New Year, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has opted to maintain the official cash rate target at 4.35%. While this is welcome news to many, it dashes the prospect of February rate cuts, a hope sparked by last week’s announcement that the Annual Inflation Rate had dropped to 4.1%. Although a reduction in Interest Rates seems unlikely following this announcement, there is plenty of competition among Lenders for the best available rates.

A big thanks to The Philadelphia Orchestra for offering our family complimentary tickets to Pixar in Concert. We are a Disney family. It’s been no secret to anyone that has chatted with our family (especially our kids) and has read this blog. My position on the Disney Parks Moms Panel also shows just how much I love Walt Disney World and anything Disney related. Since the age of 7, I’ve been hooked. It’s been amazing to see my own children become Disney fanatics, mostly through viewing some of our new favorite movies. Pixar studios has been a big factor in getting my little ones addicted to Disney, so when we were contacted about attending the Pixar in Concert, I jumped at the chance. The Philadelphia Orchestra will perform Pixar in Concert, live music scores from the studio’s beloved animated features combined with dazzling film clips from all 14 Pixar hits. The program offers the unique experience of the Orchestra performing the vibrant scores to montages of Pixar films, in concert at the family-friendly times of 7 PM on Friday, July 25, and 2 PM Saturday, July 26, in Verizon Hall at the Kimmel Center. We’re so excited to experience the music from Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Brave, The Incredibles and more, while attending the symphony. We all know how key music is to the mood of a movie, especially a Disney Pixar movie. A melody can have viewers rooting for the hero, experiencing the danger on-screen with the characters, or even missing our own families. I have to admit, I’ve shed quite a few tears during a pixar movie, just from watching a beautiful scene and hearing the accompanying music. Do you remember that scene in Toy Story 2 where Emily left Jessie in a donations box, on the side of the road? Gets me EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

Twitter is SUSPENDING any profile that seems to be a `clone’ of a suspended profile This week, we are suspending accounts for attempting to evade an account suspension. These accounts were previously suspended for abusive behavior or evading a previous suspension, and are not allowed to continue using Twitter. — Twitter Safety (@TwitterSafety) August 14, 2018 Twitter has implemented a method of suspending a profile if it somehow seems to be a new profile of a suspended profile. So let’s discuss that scenario here: Recently 777productions7 was suspended. This means that any variant that has the word 777productions in will automatically be suspended within a given time-period regardless of who creates the account. PLEASE NOTE : 1) A user does not have to create a new profile. They can simply go to Settings, edit the username and add a number to an existing username IF that username has not been taken already. 2) That just because a twitter username has 777Productions in it DOES NOT mean it was created by Deon Fialkov or belongs to him. There are other businesses that have the same name in America. 3) Only an IMBECILE will ASSuME that all the profiles above belong to DEON FIALKOV

According to statistics the number of overweight children has doubled in the past 30 years. Setting aside the small percentage whose excess weight has a medical cause, the reason for extra weight is, simply put, consuming too many calories and too little activity. For children, being overweight is physically, mentally and socially devastating. We all remember the relentless teasing fat kids got at school. Kids who are obese are most likely to be obese as adults. And, as most of us know, the older we get, the harder it is to lose weight. Medical professionals agree the best way to fight childhood obesity is to prevent it, and families are the first line of defense. As a parent, I know it is easier to get kids to eat sweet snacks than healthy vegetables. But if there are not any sweet snacks available, kids are more likely to eat something that is healthy for them than go too long without eating. When the weight I had gained did not disappear after my first child was born, I realized, after a few months, it was not going to magically disappear without some effort on my part. I got rid of everything in the house that tasted really good and made me really fat. My husband still got his ice cream for dessert, he just had to go to the ice cream shop to get it. It was hard to retrain my eating habits as an adult, but since I was trying, it made it easier to introduce better food choices to my children. A real benefit to losing weight was the energy I had to play with my kids. Like many young couples with small children, we did not have extra money to eat in restaurants, but we did eat out a lot. We’d pack a picnic basket and go to the park with friends for a game of pick up softball or volleyball while the kids had fun on the playground equipment. When children get older and have more independence it is harder to monitor every aspect of their life. Eating junk food is often part of going out with friends. One way of handling the situation is to redirect some of their free time. When my husband came home one late afternoon and saw our son reclining on the couch watching TV, he had had enough. He gave our son a choice of participating in a sport or some type of martial arts class as long as it made him move and it was a regular on-going activity. Our son chose swimming because he said he did not like to sweat and even joined the community center swim team. Evidently he enjoyed swimming hours a day as he continued swimming on teams all the way though college. It is not easy being parents and having to juggle jobs, family and unexpected challenges that have a way of showing up when we are least prepared to deal with it. Nevertheless, you will find your whole family benefits when you make a commitment to get out of the house for regular active outings. Pack healthy food in a picnic basket to share while you are out. Make good eating and activity an enjoyable family experience. Febe VanZanten, Former YMCA Program Director for Families and Children; Sports Coach. http://picnictoday.com

Judge David Reich – We Are Lucky To Have Him Here In BisMan Just recently for three weeks Mandan, North Dakota made National news - the Chad Isaak murder trial was covered on Court TV. You couldn't go anywhere in the Bismarck/Mandan area without hearing someone talking about the case. I was one of those that were intrigued by every passing day, and the key figure in my mind was a man by the name of Judge David Reich. So much poise and dignity To those that have come to know David Reich, it came to no surprise watching his poise and dignity in the courtroom. This is a man who started a running group back in 2014 called RADD ((Runners Against Destructive Decisions) - his goal was simple - to provide a healthy alternative to the deadly world of addiction. On the phone with him this morning, I was blown away by everything he and his group have accomplished. A troubled individual takes up running, regains his soul, and owes his life to Judge Reich This was just one of many incredible things that he will never forget - a tormented man through Drug Court was dealing with addiction, started running alongside David (with proper shoes now on his feet) - he was taught to regain respect for yourself, to maintain sobriety, and to live each day with promise, rather than despair. This new revived soul went on to eventually complete the Bismarck Half Marathon - on the second anniversary of his sobriety date. "I want to thank you for this running program, you saved my life" that was on a text message the Judge received. Building a community - running brings us together David Reich has been a Judge since 2006 - 60-70% of cases he comes across have drugs and alcohol issues. He understands how vital it is to have some kind of support system for when people who are suffering from addiction get out of jail. Reich has run with prisoners in a small group of around 17 people back in 2019 at Missouri River Correctional Center when that started, numbers eventually grew to around 110 out of 180 residents. This is the kind of man he is - he knows the pattern, the nature of addiction. Some moments I observed at the recent trial During the recent murder trial, I noticed that the Judge was able to insert some of his own personality - one of the jury members was visibly having some trouble staying alert during long stretches of the day - the Judge quickly came up with an idea, for a 30 - 60 second "stretch break" from time-to-time - a genius idea no doubt incorporated through his experience with exercise. There is one last thing I wanted to point out, that I believe shows what kind of character David Reich is - as a human being. When he read the final verdicts on that day we all will never forget (August 20th), he finished by saying that he was going to order a pre-sentence investigation in this matter. Wanting to know more about the defendant before the sentences are imposed on him. Now I have never heard of such a thing, and clearly, to me, it shows a responsible moral thing to do. Some would just "Throw away the key" and be on with it. This Judge just wants to be sure that EVERYONE involved with this horrific case is handled with class. We are lucky to have David Reich and RADD here in BisMan. You can see the kind of awesome work that David and RADD produce by running with his group and taking part in the annual Santa Run. Runners and walkers are all welcome and check it out, they will even go that "Extra Mile" to supply running shoes for those that need them. Our city is lucky to have Judge David Reich, and we are grateful to have a man who genuinely cares about others 10 Awesome Golf Courses In ND

‘Missing’ Louisiana DJ Located Safe and Sound Lover's of musical theater in Lafayette, Lake Charles, and Shreveport might be familiar with the tagline from the Tony Award winning musical Dear Evan Hansen, " #You will be found". And in this day and age of cellphones, wi-fi, and social media you might think being "lost" would be impossible to do. But one Louisiana DJ or radio personality if you will managed to be "misplaced" from everyone to friends, family members, and even Homeland Security. The story started to unfold about two weeks ago when Lafayette, Louisiana radio personality, Bruce Mikells, that's me by the way, left for a trip to southeast Asia. But this is less about that journey and more about the two most dangerous letters in the world today, A.I. Yes, Artificial Intelligence or lack there of contributed to some very tenuous hours and the cancellation of airline reservations not once, but nine different times during my journey. Is Artificial Intelligence as Good as Human Intelligence? In this case I would answer that question with a resounding, NO. Here's what happened. My travel plans included a flight on United Airlines from Houston (IAH) to San Francisco (SFO). Following that was a connecting flight from San Francisco to Singapore. Since we arrived in Houston several hours before our flight, which I highly suggest you do any time you're traveling to an international destination, we found there was an earlier flight to San Francisco. We opted to fly standby and were given seats on the earlier flight which was also operated by United Airlines and their "Star Alliance" network of carriers. As we touched down in San Francisco we pulled up our United Airlines app to get gate information on our upcoming flight to Singapore. We were quite surprised to see that our flight to Singapore and all of the return flights were no longer listed. We sought out and found the United Airlines customer service agent and presented our problem. People Can Say the Dumbest Things The United Airlines agent at Gate 15 in San Francisco pulled up our reservations and said to us, "You were a no show on your flight from Houston to San Francisco". To which we replied, "the fact that I am standing here in front of you in San Francisco would suggest that information is incorrect". We showed the agent our standby boarding passes and our luggage tags with bags checked through to Singapore. The agent, after about 30 minutes and several phone calls to his superiors, reprinted out tickets, boarding passes, and restored our itinerary. We were assured the issue was "fixed". We have had great luck with United as a carrier so we took them at their word and boarded our flight to Singapore. What Happens When AI Gets Bad Information? The App sent a notice that we missed our flight. And, since we have family members connected to our App they got that same notice. Unfortunately, by this time we were in the air heading for Singapore when the phone calls and messages started coming in from our family members who were inquiring about our safety and security. So, we didn't get any of those messages of concern for almost a day. The Singapore flight is about 19 hours, so that's a long time to be in "airplane mode". Once we landed in Singapore, it's airport code is SIN which made me laugh, we turned on our devices and discovered a litany of missed phone calls and messages. If you've ever had a loved one go "missing" you can appreciate the angst this must have caused. We contacted family members and assured them all was well, or so we thought. While traveling several days later in Vietnam we checked our UA App so we could plan ahead for our return trip to the USA. Much to our surprise only two of the three reserved flights were posted. The first leg of our return trip was with United's "Star Alliance" partner ANA (All Nippon Airlines) based in Japan. We called the agent for United who informed us that all was well "on their end", but they couldn't assign us seats on an ANA flight. But we were ticketed for the flight, so not to worry. The following day we checked our UA App again and what was fixed was "unfixed". So, we repeated the phone calls and went through the process again only to be told that the only way we could get seat assignments was through the ANA ticket agent in Kuala Lumpur which is where our return flight would originate. We were first in line at the ANA counter at 0500. The agent took our passports and scanned them. Right away, we knew all was not well. The agent told us our reservations had been cancelled because "we were a no show" on our IAH to SFO flight. Again, the fact that we were standing right in front of them was our "proof" that we had made the flight. After clearance by not one but two senior ticket agents from ANA we were issued boarding passes and our bags were checked through to Houston. However when we approached the gate to board the plane, the passes were deemed "invalid'. Which set up another half hour discussion among ticket agents, senior ticket agents, and probably Malaysian Security officials too. Since we had made screenshots of the previous "fixes" and we had a printed version of our E-Ticket we were allowed to board the aircraft. All in all we had to resubmit our travel documents and provide proof of payment nine different times. But at least we made it back home to the United States. Can You Fly Internationally Without Anyone Knowing? If you fly United Airlines and their "Star Alliance" partners you can. Not only were we "not on the plane" but our luggage was. Which based on my limited knowledge of Homeland Security is a big no-no for an air carrier. So TSA/Homeland Security if you have questions about my experience, I'd love to tell you more because I believe in keeping air travel safe for everyone. In this case United Airlines and their "Star Alliance" partners failed. So to the many of you who reached out via text, email, social media, and perhaps carrier pigeon, we are safe and back home. I apologize that a snafu in Artificial Intelligence had you worried. By the way, this would have been my second time to be "dead according to Facebook" so I already know what that funeral looks like. What Can We Learn From This Experience? I would say never fly standby if it is part of a multi-leg trip. Always take pictures of your boarding passes and hang onto the paper slips or the digital ones, you never know when you'll have to provide proof that the airlines made a "faux pas". Also, the words "Star Alliance" at least in airline terms must mean "it's not our fault". Since neither ANA or UA was willing to offer an explanation of why our travel arrangements were interrupted, changed, and cancelled so many times. One other thing if I may, always be nice and polite when speaking to an agent either on the phone or in person. I truly believe they were attempting to help us and in the cases of Jonathon and Apple with United Airlines they were most courteous in not solving our problems. By the way, if you're UA I can give you dates and times of the phone calls since you "record them for training purposes". 12 Secret Phrases and Their Meanings That You'll Hear on Every Flight You Take Gallery Credit: Bruce Mikells

ARTICLE ABSTRACTIn preclinical studies, the lysine-specific histone demethylase 1A (LSD1) inhibitor tranylcypromine (TCP) combined with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) induces differentiation and impairs survival of myeloid blasts in non-acute promyelocytic leukemia acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We conducted a phase I clinical trial (NCT02273102) to evaluate the safety and activity of ATRA plus TCP in patients with relapsed/refractory AML and myelodysplasia (MDS). Seventeen patients were treated with ATRA and TCP (three dose levels: 10 mg twice daily, 20 mg twice daily, and 30 mg twice daily). ATRA-TCP had an acceptable safety profile. The MTD of TCP was 20 mg twice daily. Best responses included one morphologic leukemia-free state, one marrow complete remission with hematologic improvement, two stable disease with hematologic improvement, and two stable disease. By intention to treat, the overall response rate was 23.5% and clinical benefit rate was 35.3%. Gene expression profiling of patient blasts showed that responding patients had a more quiescent CD34+ cell phenotype at baseline, including decreased MYC and RARA expression, compared with nonresponders that exhibited a more proliferative CD34+ phenotype, with gene expression enrichment for cell growth signaling. Upon ATRA-TCP treatment, we observed significant induction of retinoic acid–target genes in responders but not nonresponders. We corroborated this in AML cell lines, showing that ATRA-TCP synergistically increased differentiation capacity and cell death by regulating the expression of key gene sets that segregate patients by their clinical response. These data indicate that LSD1 inhibition sensitizes AML cells to ATRA and may restore ATRA responsiveness in subsets of patients with MDS and AML.

In an effort to help expand the capacity of small businesses statewide, the Florida Department of Transportation said it has invested more than $1.2 billion in small, veteran, minority, women, and disadvantaged businesses over the past fiscal year – providing a significant economic impact within communities across Florida. Governor Ron DeSantis (R) noted in a statement that this “ongoing commitment” on the part of Florida DOT would provide those businesses with “more opportunities to thrive for years to come” across Florida. “Supporting small and disadvantaged businesses is a priority of the department as we work toward building the transportation system that will serve Floridians for generations to come,” added Kevin Thibault, secretary of the Florida DOT. The agency specifically highlighted the specific funding support it provided to small businesses across Florida during fiscal year 2019-2020: - Reserved 199 projects totaling more than $60 million in contracts for certified small businesses. - Spent nearly $430 million with minority/women business enterprise firms, which is an increase of over $40 million compared to the 2018-2019 fiscal year. - Spent $206 million with veteran-owned businesses; an increase of over $43 million compared to the 2018-2019 fiscal year. - Committed nearly $770 million with certified disadvantaged business enterprise or DBE firms; an increase of close to $87 million compared to the prior federal fiscal year. The Florida DOT added that it is currently engaged in a comprehensive review of its small business program. As part of this review, it is conducting listening sessions in every region of the state to seek input from the small business community regarding the issues and challenges they are facing and their ideas and perspectives on how to improve department programs. A final assessment – due by spring of 2021 – will include recommendations for continued improvements in contracting with small, veteran, minority, women, and DBEs.

The District Court for the Southern District of Georgia blocked enforcement of “Water of the United States” or WOTUS rules in seven states on Aug. 21. The rules were developed during the Obama administration and the Trump administration is working to establish new regulations that were proposed last year. In a lawsuit filed by the American Road & Transportation Builders Association and joined by 13 other trade associations four years ago, the trade group objected to multiple aspects of the WOTUS regulation as “substantively unlawful” and “procedurally defective.” The group’s lawsuit also noted the rule was “unconstitutionally vague in its reliance on broad, amorphous definitions to identify ‘Waters of the United States.’” The district judge in Georgia agreed with those arguments and decided the rule must be sent back to the Environmental Protection Agency because “Congress has delegated the important role of protecting the nation’s waters to the agencies, but in fulfilling that role, the agencies must comply with the law. Here, they have failed to do just that.” The Georgia district judge’s decision effectively blocks enforcement of the WOTUS rules in Georgia, Alabama, Florida, Kansas, Kentucky, South Carolina and Utah. It follows a similar decision made in May in the Southern District of Texas federal court, which blocked enforcement of those rules in Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi. At the heart of ARTBA’s legal challenge and other arguments against the WOTUS rules is how the EPA and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers decide which bodies of water are under federal jurisdiction. The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials noted in a comment letter filed back in April supporting the Trump administration’s WOTUS revision that “clarifying” federal authority under the Clean Water Act and redefining WOTUS terminology would reduce a “significant regulatory burden” facing a variety of transportation projects. In particular, AASHTO’s letter highlighted the critical importance of defining the term “ditch” in relation to identifying the “jurisdictional status” of roadside ditches. “We have expressed concern about interpretations that could extend jurisdictional status to the majority of roadside ditches, noting the cost and delays that such an interpretation could impose on ditch maintenance activities, which are vital for maintaining road safety,” the organization said in its letter. The so-called “ditch exclusion” is vital where transportation projects are concerned, AASHTO added. That’s why WOTUS changes proposed by the Trump administration “would help to provide greater certainty to the regulated community and reduce the time and cost associated with making jurisdictional determinations,” the group emphasized.

The announcement Thursday was expected because Elliott is the reigning Xfinity Series champion and one of NASCAR's most promising young talents. Hendrick Motorsports had to find a seat for him at NASCAR's top level or risk losing the 19-year-old to another organization in 2016. Gordon, who announced his plan last week to retire from full-time driving, told The Associated Press he believes Elliott is the perfect choice to replace him. "Chase is extraordinary," Gordon saidof Elliott, who is the youngest champion in the history of NASCAR's second-tier series. Elliott will defend his title in NASCAR's second-tier series this season with JR Motorsports. But Rick Hendrick will also prep him for his move into Gordon's car by entering him in five Cup races, beginning at Martinsville in March.He'll also run at Richmond, in the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte, the Brickyard 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and the Labor Day weekend event at Darlington. Elliott will drive the No. 25 Chevrolet with sponsorship from NAPA in this year's limited Cup schedule. No sponsor was announced Thursday for his eventual Cup ride, but Elliott will be paired with Gordon's current crew chief, Alan Gustafson, in 2016. "Chase brings the kind of intangibles that make him the total package as a driver,'' Rick Hendrick said. "Not only is he a special talent inside the race car, but there's a natural combination of competitiveness, work ethic and smarts that you rarely see.'' Confirmation that Elliott will replace one of NASCAR's greatest drivers came the day before Elliott's father, Bill, is to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. Known as "Awesome Bill from Dawsonville," the Georgia native won the 1988 championship. He had 44 career Cup wins, including the 1985 Daytona 500. Elliott was also voted NASCAR's most popular driver 16 consecutive times, but removed his name from consideration following his final win in 2002. Since then, Dale Earnhardt Jr. has won a record 12 consecutive most popular driver awards. Now, the father and son duo will celebrate their accomplishments together in one week. Elliott will be feted by the industry Friday night during his induction, and his son cemented his future Thursday. "My parents especially have believed in me every step of the way, and I know this wouldn't be possible without all the sacrifices they've made to focus on my racing career. This is such a big week for our family,'' Elliott said. "I know how rare this opportunity is and will work as hard as I can to make everyone proud.'' Chase Elliott will take over one of the most coveted rides in NASCAR, a seat that has been occupied by the driver with the third-most Cup wins in history since 1992. He will also join one of the most vaunted lineups in the sport: Along with Gordon, six-time champion Jimmie Johnson, Earnhardt Jr. and Kasey Kahne put all four of Rick Hendrick's cars in the 16-driver Chase for the Sprint Cup championship last season. Gordon made the strongest run at the title, falling just one point short of advancing into the championship round. He was eliminated roughly 24 hours after Elliott wrapped up the then-Nationwide Series championship with one race remaining in the season. Gordon said there had been pressure on him from Hendrick to set a timeline on his future, not because Hendrick wanted him out of the car, but because the organization had to make long-term plans for Elliott. Between his aching back and a desire to spend more time with his two young children, Gordon said Elliott's rapid progression was also part of his decision. "That definitely has played a factor in the timing being right, because there's no doubt Rick has put pressure on me and had discussions with me," Gordon said. "Rick noted, 'We don't have a driver that can fill the shoes and sponsors.' He and I would go back and forth in these conversations, and we all kind of saw the timeline of Chase. As last season progressed and he was doing so well, it was obvious he was going to be ready for 2016. "It didn't make my decision, but it helped me make my decision." Elliott had three wins last season in the Xfinity Series, and 26 top-10 finishes in 33 starts. He juggled the final semester of his senior year of high school with the first part of the season. He grabbed his first career victory at Texas in April, then was back in school two days later. He followed it with a win the next week at tricky Darlington Raceway in South Carolina, and both victories were celebrated back in Georgia with the ringing of the police siren atop the Dawsonville Pool Room. The siren is only used in cases of celebration, and it had not been sounded since 2003, when Bill Elliott won his final race at Rockingham Speedway.

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ) Callaway County prosecutors charged a man Monday with felony resisting arrest and drug possession after a weekend chase. Sean Kleeschulte, who has no listed address, was arrested Sunday after the chase that started on Route CC and ended in a farmer's field near Tebbetts, according to the Callaway County Sheriff's Office. A deputy clocked Kleeschulte driving 86 mph in a 55 mph zone before trying to pull Kleeschulte over, the sheriff's office says. Kleeschulte was also wanted on Jefferson County, Missouri, warrants for probation violations for burglary and drug charges. In addition to the resisting arrest and drug possession charges, Kleeschulte is also charged in Callaway County with two misdemeanors -- possession of drug paraphernalia and driving without a license. He was in the Callaway County Jail on Tuesday without bond. He had an initial court hearing Tuesday afternoon, according to online court records.

Ok, I'm watching tv and hanging out, watching bad programs with one eye on the tv and one on the computer. Yay. And since someone was nagging for pictures even before I got my stuff or internet, I'm posting yet again, uploading some pictures and asking for advice about decorating. Look, I have another bathroom to decorate! It's all white and blank and a lovely fresh slate: I had this great idea to paint the room a celery or mint green and putting up some strong black and white cutouts, like these patterns, and add some more silver touches. But then I reread my renter's agreement based on the warnings of my sister and discovered that I am not allowed to paint anything. Le sigh. Below is my bedroom, decorated in a lovely minimalist "absent-moving-vehicle" motif: And what's this? The exact same room from another angle? Why no! It's the future site of my wonderful and amazing office. Currently it is a cat-carrier storage site. Boo-yeah! That is closet space, baby! I know juuuuuuust what to do with it. This is one space I don't need advice on arranging. And look, a staircase! I haven't even started thinking about planning pictures and decorating plans for this space. But not all is perfect at the new Chez Cog. The landlord pointed out that when the builders installed the vinyl flooring, the notes they made on the back side bled through: Ah well. So I guess I need some suggestions for things to cover some arrows --- teeny area rugs, maybe? --- as well as any ideas about interesting decorating schemes.

Public company executives have long engaged with their shareholders, especially during proxy season, to share business strategy and address investor concerns. In recent years, public company directors have increasingly been asked to participate in the process and such engagements now may occur year-round. While there can be advantages to director-shareholder engagement, the new practice poses challenges boards should consider before proceeding. Potential advantages to director-shareholder engagement include: - Increasing a board’s understanding of shareholder concerns - Increasing shareholders’ appreciation of governance realties - Managing expectations - Cultivating a shareholder base that understands and values the company’s particular culture, business, and strategy To achieve such objectives requires thoughtful planning, takes time and patience, and poses some risk of inappropriate disclosure. It is up to each board to balance the potential advantages and costs according to its business judgment. To help inform that judgment, it may help to think about what a general policy on the topic would look like. Think of this as addressing the who, what, when, and how of shareholder engagement. First, a policy would address who would participate in engagements. Among individual directors, logical choices would be those with experience in shareholder engagement, along with those with the broadest purview among the board, such as the board chair, vice chair, or lead independent director. Some boards might prefer to form a committee on shareholder engagement to include others, as well, or to invite those with subject matter expertise to participate with relevant engagements on an ad hoc basis. Next, a board-shareholder engagement policy would outline what subjects are fair game and which are off-limits. While engagements should be as candid as possible, directors must be careful to avoid disclosing a company’s proprietary business information, such as trade secrets, as well as any material nonpublic information. A company’s general counsel or outside counsel should weigh on this part of the policy. Timing is an important consideration. When will engagement occur? While, historically, companies engaged with shareholders around proxy season, in recent years, many shareholders wish to engage throughout the year. The ideal scheduling will vary widely. But consider that many shareholders will have their own preferred cadences and companies may wish to set blackout periods, such as around quarterly board meetings. Lastly, an engagement policy should address how shareholder engagement should occur. One key topic would be whether engagements are done in small groups of shareholders, one at a time or some combination. Another is the degree of formality, in terms of agendas, minutes, and reporting to the full board. Logistics might also be considered, such as any preferences for in-person versus remote meetings. In thinking through these points, boards considering director-shareholder engagement will undoubtedly think of others—such as how to involve management and any investor relations staff, whether to reach out to shareholders or wait for them to do so, or whether to communicate the upshot of such engagement to the shareholder body at large through a periodic website. Such an exercise should illuminate whether and how to proceed. Special Counsel, New York +1 212 506 2203 Associate, Washington DC +1 202 263 3062

So that they can find their own place in society. We do this through programs that ensure that these children can 'just' be children and develop positively. Through fun, they can forget all their worries, have fun, make friends, create positive memories and participate. But also by urging the government and youth providers to ensure that the interests of all children really become the focus of policy and implementation and that the quality of care and assistance improves.

It’s not just about a shirt—it’s about government officials telling a 7th grader that he can’t say something that’s important to him. That’s not freedom. If the government can censor Liam, who can’t it censor? The school’s actions are illegal All students have the constitutional right to express their free speech without having to fear being punished by school officials. They can’t be forced out of the classroom for exercising their rights. That’s why Alliance Defending Freedom and the Massachusetts Family Institute are suing the Town of Middleborough and school officials in federal court on his behalf. And you can stand with Liam, too.

I finally got round to watching The People’s Piazza: A History of Covent Garden on iPlayer. As with many of the best documentaries, the researchers had done a great job of finding people who had direct involvement with the subject at hand, including men and women who had worked in the market in the pre- and post-war periods. There was some great archive footage, and the framing of developments around historical figures worked well. Inigo Jones’ St Paul’s church loomed large, though its architectural history wasn’t explored. It’s still surprising how Jones integrated the most ‘primitive’ Tuscan order with elegant surrounding townhouses, and in doing so delivering London’s first formal open space. Jones had seen the opportunity to employ the Tuscan’s earthy and robust dimensions in an ecclesiastical building after agreeing with the Earl of Bedford to deliver the ‘handsomest barn in England’. The huge east front pedimented portico of St Paul’s (sixty feet across), with its widely-spaced pair of large columns flanked by square pilasters, had no precedent in England, and the sight of a quasi-Tuscan temple would have been all the more dramatic for its urban setting. The church’s double-square interior displayed Jones’ preference for harmonic ratios, with symmetrical, tall, rounded-headed pairs of windows on the east and west facades complementing circular windows above the church’s ‘entrances’ (the east one is fake). Flanking St Paul’s were a pair of arches, also Tuscan, with rusticated pilasters. These were positioned away from the church and joined by a wide, low wall, at a distance proportionate to the columnation of the church’s portico. The cumulative effect of their inclusion, visible in later etchings and paintings, again demonstrated Jones’ inclination for horizontality, but at Covent Garden going a step further to confidently bestow a residential skyline with the gravity of the Tuscan order. No drawings in Jones’ hand survive for the the tall, narrow houses he designed for the north and east sides of Covent Garden, but later pictorial evidence shows that they were narrow, classical structures, with vaulted, rusticated, arcade walkways (‘piazzas’) spanning the terraces, with steep roofs and dormer windows. Summerson argued that the whole of Covent Garden was a ‘comprehensive essay in the Tuscan mood’, with Jones adapting a Serlio design for his Covent Garden houses to deliver elegant continuity around three sides of the square. The effect is seen in later paintings: a band of red, upper-story brickwork runs around the square – smart, but subordinate to the bright, rusticated ashlar line leading the eye to its termination at the new, understated, Protestant, place of worship. The point here isn’t to establish whether Jones’ unified application of the Tuscan order was faithful to antiquity, but more to recognise that what Jones had created was the first classical city square in England. Its influence was soon felt in surrounding streets, with Jones directing similar classical projects in Lincoln’s Inn Fields and Great Queen Street. Jones had arrived at his own urban vernacular, the forerunner of London street architecture. Crucially, these buildings and spaces would be experienced by the public, not just kings and courtiers. At this point Jones still had what might have been the crowning glories of his Westminster Palace and St Paul’s cathedral developments on the horizon, though the former didn’t come to fruition and the latter was demolished. Whatever the aesthetic merit of Jones’ work on the west front of the cathedral, it’s Jones’ influence on secular architecture that was revolutionary, though his buildings alone may not have been enough to secure that legacy.

December 23, 2020 The ham was perfect, the desserts delectable, the reunions warm, but you’ve just learned that Uncle Joe had COVID-19. What next? And is it safer to get tested if you’re considering meeting with family within the next several weeks? Today’s shorter quarantine guidelines, a variety of tests and newly available therapies call for updated protocols. 1. Determine your level of exposure. Before taking steps to get tested, determine your level of exposure and whether you’ve had close contact. Seeing others outside — with everyone wearing masks — doesn’t warrant a test. If both people were unmasked and within six feet for at least 15 minutes, that qualifies as exposure and warrants a test. If you wore a mask and the other person didn’t and was at a greater distance, exposure is less likely, and you may not need to get tested. If you’re indoors and have had close contact, defined as being within six feet of someone for a total of 15 minutes over 24 hours, you’re a good candidate for getting tested. 2. How long should you quarantine if you’ve had close contact with a confirmed case? If you’ve been exposed but don’t have symptoms, you’ll need to quarantine for 10 days, per the latest CDC guideline. People who test negative (antigen or PCR) for COVID-19 with a sample collected after day five can stop the quarantine after seven days past the exposure. However, according to the CDC and the latest medical information, a 14-day quarantine remains safest to reduce risk. 3. What if you learn that someone you saw over the holidays is having COVID-19 symptoms but doesn’t have a confirmed case? Take a “wait-and-see” approach and stay away from others as much as possible. Monitoring your own symptoms, including temperature checks, is key. Individuals can try to limit their contact with other people, but don’t necessarily have to strictly quarantine. 4. How many days after exposure should you get tested? Tests are most accurate about five to seven days after exposure, when your viral load is highest and can be detected more easily. So, if you had dinner on Sunday, wait until Friday to do your test. Testing negative within that five-to-seven- day period is a pretty good indicator that you don’t have COVID. Keep in mind, molecular tests, including PCR tests, are more accurate than rapid antigen tests, but can still render false negatives in roughly 1 in 15 people displaying symptoms. 5. Who should you notify of exposure and when? If you were around someone with a confirmed case, notify anyone you have seen since exposure, but you do not need to notify local authorities unless your specific entities have this requirement. If you develop symptoms or are awaiting test results, quarantine in addition to telling others. In many areas, it can be challenging to get tested if you’re asymptomatic after confirmed exposure. This murky area is one of the things that makes this pandemic such a challenge. 6. When is getting tested a priority? Most people can safely isolate at home. But for those at higher risk for complications from a coronavirus infection (those over 60 years of age and those with comorbidities like obesity, diabetes, kidney disease, lung disease or heart disease), it’s becoming increasingly important to get tested. New therapies, like monoclonal antibodies, are aimed at high-risk patients early on in the disease progression, so having a confirmed diagnosis is critical for those patients since can now offer things that we didn’t have before. 7. Is getting tested before a holiday gathering recommended? Of course, getting tested and going to a gathering is not as safe as staying home and celebrating holidays with those in your household. But doing a test right before an event can help add a layer of safety on top of other protocols including wearing masks, staying at least six feet apart, keeping meetings brief, being outside, and adding ventilation. A rapid molecular-based (PCR) test is likely to yield the most accurate results, but offerings are limited, and the turnaround is longer.

On May 22, 2020, The Institute of Advanced Study in Science and Technology(IASST) has developed an electrochemical sensing platform to detect carcinogenic or mutagenic compound N-nitrosodimethylamine(NDMA) and N-nitrosodiethanolamine(NDEA) that are found in food items like cured meat, bacon, some cheese, and low-fat milk. i.Most techniques used to detect Nitrosamine have detection limits in micrometre(μM). In this study published, the detection limit is determined as 9.9×10−9 M for NDMA and 9.6×10−9 M for NDEA. ii.The development was achieved by developing a modified electrode by immobilizing carbon nanomaterials(carbon dots) in DeoxyriboNucleic Acid(DNA). i.To alter the DNA the electrochemical biosensor platform was developed using the ability of NDMA and NDEA ii.The Carbon dots(CDs), a carbon-based nanomaterial, just used in the end a biocompatible and environmentally friendly material. iii.To synthesize CDs, a naturally derived chitosan (a natural biopolymer obtained from the shells of shrimp, lobster, and crabs) is used, which is an environmentally-friendly sustainable material. iv.The electrochemical sensor, the electrode is formed by depositing CDs and then immobilizing bacterial DNA on them. This electrode system measures the current peak. v.The NDMA and NDEA alters the chemical structure of DNA present in the electrode, which makes it more conducting, which results in the increased current peak. G (Guanine) of the 4 base pairs A,T,G,C is electro-chemically active and hence was predominantly used by scientists. vi.In the presence of NDMA, guanine is modified to 6-Omethylguanine or 7-methyl guanine and with NDEA guanine changes to 8-oxoguanine to form DNA adducts. vii.Other structurally similar chemical compounds were added to the test, these chemicals cannot alter the DNA sequence, they do not affect the structure. It was inaugurated by Nobel Laureate Dorothy C. Hodgkin on 3rd November 1979 & was supported by the state government as its only autonomous Research & Development(R&D) institute till March 2009. The institute was taken over in March 2009 by the Ministry of Science and Technology, as one of its autonomous R&D institutes. Headquarters– Guwahati, Assam Director– N.C. Talukdar

Great Learning Academy has a free course that helps you learn the basics of affiliate marketing. You can also enroll for a professional certificate course to get more in-depth knowledge about this technique. How to Make Money Online with Affiliate Marketing Affiliate marketing is a form of online marketing where marketers promote products for other companies in exchange for a commission. It can be a great way to earn supplemental income or even become a full-time career. But it can also be a complicated business model that takes time and dedication to learn and implement. First, you must build a niche that fits with your skills and interests. Next, you must create high-quality content that targets the right audience. Finally, you must research the best affiliate programs to join. A successful affiliate marketing strategy requires a lot of work and dedication to build an audience and gain credibility. However, it can be a lucrative and rewarding business if you do it right. Here are some key tips to make it happen: Find a Product That Fits Your Audience’s Success Path The most important thing when it comes to affiliate marketing is finding a product that your audience will benefit from. Identify the pain points they have and promote solutions that address those issues. You can do this by creating blog posts, podcasts, videos, or live webinars that address the specific challenges they face. Offer Bonuses That Add Value to Your Readership A huge part of affiliate marketing is building trust and authority with your audience. One of the ways you can do this is by offering valuable bonuses to your readers that they won’t be able to find elsewhere. You can use these as part of your affiliate link, or offer them directly in your email list or social media posts. Take Your Time With Your Affiliate Links When promoting an affiliate product, make sure you include an easy-to-follow link with your affiliate ID that will direct your audience to the correct page on the merchant’s website. This will allow you to track your conversion rates and ensure you get paid. If you’re a newbie to affiliate marketing, it can be confusing at first. Luckily, there are many resources out there to help you make sense of it all. For example, you can join an affiliate network like ClickBank or ShareASale to get access to multiple merchants. This will increase your options and allow you to choose which merchants you want to partner with. How to Make $100 a Day Blogging If you want to make $100 a day, you have to get a lot of traffic to your blog. This isn’t an easy task, but if you keep at it and work hard, it’s possible. There are several ways to earn a daily income from your blog, but the easiest and most profitable is to promote affiliate products on your site. These can be anything from a new cooking tool to a rucksack for travel. Another way to make a daily income is to sell physical products online. You can either sell products on your own website or through e-commerce sites like Amazon. While it sounds like hard work, e-commerce has become much easier than ever before. Many e-commerce sites already have built-in sales funnels, marketing processes, and audiences that are ready to purchase products. If you are a designer, it is possible to start selling your designs on print on demand websites like Redbubble or Zazzle. These marketplaces will take care of the ad placement and testing, and are a great starting point for any aspiring designer who wants to get their foot in the door. However, you’ll need to add your desired markup to the products. It’s also important to note that you don’t need a large audience in order to generate sales on these platforms, and it is a good idea to focus on niches with seasonality. You can also create digital products that people can download and print at home. Examples include grocery shopping checklists, gift tags, candy bar wrappers, printable quotes for wall art, and patterns. The best part about creating digital products is that you can do this from anywhere in the world. This is a great way to work from home and make money at the same time. Another way to earn a daily income is by delivering products for companies such as Postmates or Instacart. This can be done from any vehicle, and you will receive a set amount for each delivery. Finally, you can use YouTube as a way to get free traffic to your website and earn an income from the advertising revenue on your videos. You can also build an email list with your videos, and this can lead to an additional source of revenue. How to Create an Amazon Affiliate Website with WordPress Affiliate marketing is a popular way to make money online, as it allows you to earn commissions from products you promote on your website. However, there are some things that you need to keep in mind if you want your Amazon affiliate site to succeed. Before you start creating your affiliate website, it’s important to decide what products you want to promote. Choosing the right products will help to increase your site traffic and sales, as well as earn you some great commissions. For example, if you’re a health blogger then you might be interested in promoting gym equipment, health supplements or other products that are related to your niche. Alternatively, if you’re running an animal and pet-related blog then you could promote products from the ‘Pet Supplies’ category on Amazon. Once you have chosen the products that you wish to promote on your website, it’s time to create your Amazon affiliate store. One of the best ways to do this is to use the WooCommerce plugin. It is a free and open source eCommerce plugin that is available for WordPress, and it’s a powerful tool for adding products to your website. It’s also very flexible and easy to use, which means that it’s perfect for creating a successful Amazon affiliate website. The Amazon Associates program is one of the most popular programs out there, as it is easy to join and you can get a commission for every sale that comes from your site. You can also earn extra money if you sell products in bulk, which is a great way to boost your income. You can sign up to the Amazon Associates program on their website, and you will need to meet their guidelines in order to be accepted. This includes driving at least three qualified sales within the first 180 days of your application. Another key step is to choose a good hosting provider for your Amazon affiliate website. A quality host will ensure that your site runs smoothly and is always up and running. This is vital, as it will affect both user experience and search engine optimisation (SEO). A good theme for an Amazon affiliate website should be flexible and responsive, so it can adapt to the size of the screen that your visitors are using. It should also have good performance, speed and security. How to Perform Free Keyword Research for SEO Whether you’re trying to increase your brand’s organic visibility or build out an advertising campaign, keyword research is a crucial part of any SEO strategy. The wrong keywords can lead to wasted time and money, while the right ones can help you get noticed by the right audience. Fortunately, there are plenty of free tools that can help you conduct SEO keyword research. These free resources include powerful keyword generators, competitor analysis tools, and more. One of the most popular and powerful free keyword research tools is Google’s Keyword Planner, which can help you find keyword ideas that are relevant to your business. It also provides a variety of search volume data, competition, and other important information to help you plan out your next website or marketing campaign. Other tools that can provide valuable keyword insights include SpyFu, a tool that helps you uncover competitors’ keywords and analyze their performance over time. It also offers competitor comparisons to see how you can rank against other websites in your industry. You can also use the search queries report provided by Google Search Console to analyze which search terms your organic traffic is using to find your website. This can give you a good idea of what type of content your website needs to produce to drive more organic traffic. If you’re looking for an easier way to perform keyword research, try installing a tool like Keywords Everywhere, which lets you automatically collect search terms as you browse Google, Bing, and YouTube. It also shows you what content is ranking for each term and allows you to click through to see what snippets are featured on that page. Another great keyword research tool is AnswerThePublic, which uses the auto-suggest / autocomplete features of Google and Bing to generate keywords that are relevant to your website. Its pro plan allows you to view search volumes and related keywords on a per-keyword basis, as well as conduct more in-depth keyword research. Aside from these tools, there are other things that you can do to improve your search engine optimization and boost your online traffic. The most effective ways to do this include implementing a strong keyword research process, using seed keywords, and researching related search terms.

Split system air conditioners This type of system is called a split air conditioning system because it has an inside and an outside component. This air conditioner works by providing air from a cooling unit usually mounted on a wall. The reason for the split is to make sure that it keeps the hot outside and the cool inside. The common sizes range from 2kw to 9kw units in a variety of brands including Daikin. The components of a split air conditioner are the compressor, condenser coil, expansion joint, fan, the evaporator coils, filter, blower and unit box. There is also a thermostat to control the entire unit. The compressor and the condensing coils are kept on the outside of the house while the evaporator coils and blower are kept inside the house. How it works: Liquid refrigerant flows through a series of coil pipes in the system mounted inside your home. This cold liquid refrigerant is blown by a fan releasing cold air in the room. This refrigerant liquid then turns into a gas as it warms up due to its low boiling point and carries heat outside your home. Now the split system air conditioner needs to do two things so it can continue to cool the room. It needs to convert the hot refrigerant gas to liquid so it can be used to cool more air inside your home and dump the hot air outside. It does this by the use of a compressor. The compressor is used to increase pressure in the hot refrigerant gas so it turns it back in to liquid making it cool again to be reused. As the refrigerant cools down, a fan in the outside unit blows this heat that is in the refrigerant outside releasing hot air. This new cold refrigerant liquid passed through a valve allowing it to go back to normal room pressure, cool the air inside and remove hot air. These steps are repeated many times allowing you to keep cool in summer. The compressor is controlled by the thermostat. When the thermostat detects warm air, it activates the compressor. A refrigerant gas is fed into the compressor and gets pressurized, causing the heat in the gas to rise. Split system advantages are: - They are easy to maintain, as they have washable filters that can easily be taken out and put back in. - The interior modules of the split systems are unobtrusive, as they are usually located high up on a wall and their sleek, modern designs easily blend in with the decor. - Split systems are quiet, as only the air-blowing unit is located indoors. - Air is recirculated making it more efficient in that sense - Easy to control the exact temperature and instantaneous cold feel. - It’s possible to have more than one indoor unit – you can have one in each room of your home and run them independently with just one outdoor compressor. This combines the efficiency with the convenience of central air. - Some models can cool and heat your home Some of its disadvantages are: - Are not cost effective compared to window air conditioners - A professional air conditioner installer needs to be hired to set up the system. - The interior and exterior units need to be positioned close to each other. Thus, split systems may be unsuitable if you live in a tall building or an apartment. - The compressor unit located outside generates quite a lot of noise.
