Across The Kitchen Table: I Got To Find Me Somebody Across The Kitchen Table some half decent tunes, personal ramblings and the odd rant Monday, 7 November 2016 I Got To Find Me Somebody We're in girl group territory, one of my favourite genres if you hadn't already sussed that out, with today's bit of soul. Another record that I know very little about, aren't they all. I do know that the Vel-Vets were a trio from L.A who cut this tune for 20th Century Fox Records in 1967. If that intro doesn't get you off your seat nothing will.

One California state senator has a fairly simple idea: what if a city or county government had to affirmatively and publicly approve any acquisition or use of a stingray? A new bill pushing for just that cleared its first committee hurdle in California on Wednesday, as Senate Bill 741 passed the state's Senate Committee on Governance and Finance by a vote of seven to zero.
SB 741’s language is pretty straightforward, as authored by Sen. Jerry Hill (D-San Mateo):
No local agency may acquire or use cellular communications interception technology unless approved by its legislative body by adoption of a resolution or ordinance authorizing that acquisition or use. The legislative body of a local agency shall not approve a resolution or ordinance authorizing the acquisition or use of cellular communications interception technology, unless the resolution or ordinance is adopted at a regularly scheduled public meeting of the legislative body at which members of the public are afforded a reasonable opportunity to comment upon the proposed resolution or ordinance. The resolution or ordinance shall set forth the policies of the local agency as to the circumstances when cellular communications interception technology may be employed, and usage and privacy policies, which shall include, but need not be limited to, how data obtained through use of the technology is to be used, protected from unauthorized disclosure, and disposed of once it is no longer needed. If the local agency maintains an Internet website, the cellular communications interception technology usage and privacy policies shall be posted conspicuously on that site.
The bill is related to another bit of proposed stingray legislation also in the early stages of the lawmaking process—SB 178 would go so far as to impose a warrant requirement for stingray use.
Giving our say-so
For now, SB 741 bill has a long way to go before it becomes law in California. It needs to pass both the Senate and Assembly and must be signed by the governor.
The Senate committee comments note the bill is currently supported by the Bay Area Civil Liberties Coalition, the California Newspaper Publishers Association, and a group called "Small Business California." But the bill has opposition from local law enforcement and also from other civil liberties groups, according to the committee:
Some civil liberties advocates suggest that SB 741 may not go far enough. They suggest that SB 741’s public disclosure requirements, which allow the public to consider and comment upon local IMSI policies, are an insufficient response to this problematic surveillance technology. Instead, they want legislators to consider statewide standards that will address some of the broader privacy and unreasonable search issues raised by IMSI catchers.
Catherine Crump, a law professor at the University of California, Berkeley and a former lawyer at the American Civil Liberties Union, believes the bill would be a positive step. She sees it as similar to a handful of existing legislation in other areas.
"This bill reminds me of the surveillance notification ordinances passed by both Seattle and Tacoma," she told Ars in an e-mail. "After all, local communities have the best sense of what policing is truly necessary in their area. Nothing in the bill prohibits law enforcement agencies from acquiring or using cellular communications interception technology. What it does do is to make sure that elected representatives and members of the public have the opportunity to weigh in before they do so. Given that this technology has a substantial impact on people’s privacy rights, communities ought to have a say in decisions like this."
Disclosure of stingray use (aka the use of cell-site simulators or IMSI catchers) has been a hot button issue in the US recently. Limited information about the devices has started to trickle out as a result of public records requests and related lawsuits, but by and large authorities have attempted to keep information from becoming public. Earlier this year, Ars reported on how the FBI is actively trying to "prevent disclosure" of stingray use, going so far as to distribute a pre-written press release for local law enforcement agencies to use. | positive |

Along with Maryland and Albany, Notre Dame / Denver is our other rematch of a previous game this season. In that one, Denver squeaked out a win 12-11 on a pretty incredible Connor Cannizzaro last second wrap around goal. This time around, the stakes are raised as a trip to Boston is on the line. I mean, I guess the losing team could still go to Boston, but you know what I mean. So let this Denver vs Notre Dame preview incorporate prior lessons learned with a dash of stats to get you ready for Saturday’s game.
Our Lax-ELO model thinks that the Pioneers have a 63% chance to advance to championship weekend. Denver comes in with the 4th strongest Lax-ELO rating (1719). The Irish are a middling 18th (1622).
Notre Dame enters this tilt with the 21st ranked offense in D1 and the 17th ranked defense. They have the 43rd deepest roster in D1 and have held the ball less than almost every other team (69th in time of possession).
Denver boasts the #1 efficiency offense in the nation. Unfortunately, they’ve backed that up with the 56th ranked defense. Thanks to Baptiste at x, they are the #1 time of possession team, averaging nearly 33 minutes per game. Denver is one spot below Notre Dame in terms of roster depth. These are two top-heavy teams.
Spotlight’s on Shane Doss
We don’t typically talk much about goalie play here at LacrosseReference. Mostly this is because of a lack of available data. We know how many shots a goalie saved vs saw, but these are very public stats that anyone can pore over. Simply not much added value we can provide there. If there were data on shot location, then that would be worth digging into, but alas, not yet.
But this is one situation where goalie play will have an outsized impact. For two reasons: 1) Denver does not turn the ball over and 2) they have the ball a lot. The math here is simple, Denver has more possessions than you because of Baptiste, and they waste fewer of them with turnovers than almost anybody (6th in the nation). More possessions + Fewer wasted possessions means more shots on goal. If Doss has an off-day and too many of those shots go in, Notre Dame just doesn’t have the firepower to overcome that.
North Carolina’s win over the Pioneers could hold some clues for Notre Dame.
In that Carolina win, Balkam had 17 saves. Denver had 13 face offs wins, but was only about to convert three of those into goals. The Heels scored 3 goals on 8 face off win possessions. True to form, Denver only had 6 turnovers. They scored their 9 goals on a whopping 43 shots.
It was the kind of game where North Carolina sat back in defense, tried to prevent easy goals, and hoped that their keeper was up to the task.
It’s a model that Notre Dame could use to beat the Pioneers.
Notre Dame would be wise to be patient on offense
In the first game, Notre Dame was really quick to pull the trigger on offense. On theie 13 ground balls, they waited only 11 seconds before taking a shot. There isn’t anything inherently wrong with quick shots. And since Notre Dame has been doing this all year, we normally think that staying the course is their best bet.
But there are some mitigating circumstances with the Irish. First, Denver is #1 in the nation in time of possession. Second, Notre Dame is a very top heavy team, meaning that their top lines have had to shoulder more of the burden this year than some other teams. As the season wears on, those 4th quarter slides get harder and harder to make.
The last point in favor of a slower Notre Dame attack is that they haven’t been all that good in possessions where they take a quick shot. The chart below shows the Irish compared to their ACC brethren. You can see pretty clearly that when the offense takes a shot before 60 seconds have elapsed, they are sub-par. When they wait 60 seconds or longer before ripping a first shot, the improvement is dramatic.
Now that said, the counter argument is that if Notre Dame is slowing it down, then that means fewer possessions, which means face offs become more critical, which might not be a winning idea.
For what it’s worth, these teams won’t have to deal with heat though, with temps only expected to be in the 60s.
Fight to win or prepare to lose?
Notre Dame has an interesting strategic decision to make around how to defend the Pioneers’ face-off offense. It’s no surprise that Notre Dame is going to lose the majority of the face offs in this game. And they are going to lose ~100% of the face offs that are won cleanly. I realize that’s not rigorous statistical analysis, but Trevor Baptiste defies numbers, so why try?
Anyway, the question for Notre Dame becomes, if you are going to lose the face offs anyway, how vigorously do you send your wings in?
In other words, do you all but concede the face off in order to minimize the number of goals Denver is able to score off of those possessions. The numbers say that might not be such a bad idea.
The chart shows the Notre Dame defense’s efficiency marks after face off losses for each game. In games where they’ve allowed the offense to score on 26% of those possessions, they have exactly one win. In games where the opponent is under 26%, they are undefeated.
If you are Kevin Corrigan, how important are face off wins to you?
Denver has tended to be somewhat of an all or nothing offense, even more so in their first game against the Irish. In that one, they scored 7 goals on 18 face off possessions and just 4 goals across their other 23 possessions. If you are Notre Dame, it’s got to be tempting to say: “screw it, we aren’t going to win these face offs so might as well batten down the hatches and prevent face-offs from turning into goals.”
Notre Dame Personnel Issues
Notre Dame was the team heading into this tournament with the largest player question marks. Would Garnsey be healthy? Was Perkovic’s wrist going to allow those 100mph lasers? Would the Irish get bounced by Marquette?
They clearly answered that last one, but as for Garnsey and Perkovic, they combined for one goal on 11 shots and 2 turnovers. Not exactly an emphatic “We’re Back…” type of performance. But even with that, it seems like the questions around Notre Dame’s ability to compete in this tournament have dissipated a bit. And that is largely down to one guy: Mr Gleason.
Notre Dame’s play-shares chart shows that Gleason has been the guy to fill the shoes left by injuries to Garnsey and Perkovic. His five goals against Marquette are one of the biggest reasons that Notre Dame is in this game at all. The steady rise over the course of the season represents a player shouldering the burden of an offense.
Mikey Wynne has increased his output a bit in recent weeks, but he’s not creating his own offense. Instead, it’s been Gleason taking the reins. If Perkovic and Garnsey were able to build up some more health points over the past week, this offense looks a lot scarier than many would have envisioned precisely because of the reps Gleason has under his belt. If the two stars are able to return to full strength, this offense may have actually benefited from their absence.
One last thing to note: John Sexton is on this list. Our play shares model calculates the number of recorded plays for each player. As we all know, recorded plays tend to be offensive rather than defensive. On offense, every shot is recorded, but on defense, only caused turnovers will result in a defenseman’s name being written down. So for defenseman to make any team’s play shares chart is pretty impressive.
And his play shares have been increasing!!! Just wanted to point that out for those that love defense and don’t get to see their favorites players mentioned much in the stats world.
Here’s what it look like last time these two teams met
Here’s the in-game win odds chart for the Pioneers:
The advanced stats recap shows a fairly even possession game, but Notre Dame had to overcome a 10 possession deficit. | positive |
Blackberry Brie Bites
Brie is awesome. Its ooey-gooey creaminess makes us melt with delight as we spread it on crackers at dinner parties. But it can be spread on much more than crackers. For a light snack in the Spring or Summer, try making these blackberry brie bites. It’s the perfect combination of a burst of fruit and cheese, wrapped in a buttery, flaky blanket.
These are perfect crowd-pleasers for parties, meetings, or just for fun. They are literally bite-sized so they won’t make a mess but enough to impress your friends and leave them wanting more. Of course, they’re best served warm, right after you take them out of the oven. If they do get cold, you can simply warm them up in the microwave and get the same taste.
I spontaneously made these after school one day because I had leftover brie and wanted to bake it in with puff pastry. These are actually very similar to the Cuban Guava Pastries I made last year, which were made using guava paste and cream cheese. There are soo many variations of puff pastry+fruit+cheese. Next time, I’ll try using other fruits like figs and maybe add some honey!
BLACKBERRY BRIE BITES
(makes 16)
Ingredients
1 pkg puff pastry, thawed
1 quart blackberries
5 oz brie cheese, cut into cubes
3-4 tbsps blackberry jam
1 egg, for egg wash
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cut the thawed puff pastry into equal squares.
Place a cube of brie in the middle of a square, spoon 1/4 teaspoon of jam onto it, and place blackberry on top. Fold two opposite corners into the middle and pinch corners together. Then, pinch the other two corners to meet in the middle so all 4 corners come together. Repeat for each square.
Beat the egg until mixed. Brush egg wash on the outer parts of puff pastry surface.
Bake for 15-20 minutes.

Hi spacefriends!
CCP karkur here with some more little changes for you in this not so little devblog.
This time around they are actually not all pure UI changes, but I hope you will like them nonetheless :)
In this blog I'll be covering:
Implants and the training queue.
Compare tool accessibility.
All kinds of fleet improvements.
The other day, CCP Rise asked me how difficult it would be to stop your Training Queue from the Neocom. Knowing exactly what he was getting at, I told him that maybe we should just go ahead and see if we couldn't just do it automatically for you lovely players when you are plugging in implants. And that's how we started working on this little "feature" many of you have been asking for since I don't know when.
There's really not much more to say about it... after Rubicon you can simply plug in your implants, the Training Queue is briefly paused while that goes through and is then magically started again.
I know that many of you are thinking "Hey, why don't you do it for clone jumping too?" right about now. The answer is that we are looking into it, but it's a little more complicated than the situation with implants.
I've all but promised you guys a few times to add a Compare Tool button to the Neocom. Rubicon was a good time to step up and finally add those 3 lines of code to give you easy access to the "wonderful" Compare tool many of you don't even know exists. The compare tool is great to see the stats of multiple items at once in a single glance.
And that brings me to the biggest changes I want to tell you about today: the fleet stuff.
Multimoving in Fleets
As some of you might remember, we added the ability to drag people around in fleets to move them in Retribution.
When working on those changes, I really wanted to also add the ability to multimove pilots to make it easier to manage large fleets, but that was way out of scope then. For Retribution we revisited that code, and did some neat stuff.
It started fairly simple, and the plan was to simply allow a fleet organizer to select many members in the fleet and drag them all at once to a different location in the fleet. But as often happens, there was a lot of "hey, why don't we then allow this... and that" and "wouldn't it be cool if…" so the task kind of grew on its own.
So what changes are we introducing?
First of all, after Rubicon, you will be able to drag pilots from pretty much any pilot list, whether it's chat, Addressbook, or the Station Guest list, and drop them onto the fleet to invite them all at once to the fleet.
If you have a specific squad or wing in mind for them you can drop them onto those groups, but if you don't care where they land, just drop them onto the Fleet Commander position, and we will find them a nice squad to call home.
Previously, it was really random what squad people would end up in when joining a fleet, but we have created the following rules to make joining more convenient and consistent.
1st squad choice: "top-most squad with both a Wing Commander and a Squad Commander"
2nd squad choice: "in top-most squad with a Wing Commander"
3rd squad choice: "in top-most squad with a Squad Commander",
else "in top-most commander-less squad"
Similarly, you can do those exact same things with current fleet members, and instead of getting invited to the fleet, they are moved around in it. It's perhaps worth mentioning that dropping fleet members onto a wing they are already in or the Fleet Commander position will have no effect on them since they already belong to those groups.
Whenever pilots are multidragged onto a commander slot, they will all be invited/moved to be squad members, and none of them will be appointed as commander since that wouldn't really make much sense.
In order to appoint a commander, you will need to move the pilot in questions to the commander position on their own, either by dragging them or by using the "good" old right click menu option. Some of the feedback we got after releasing the multimove feature on our test server, Singularity, was that you guys wanted the ability to drop an individual pilot onto an empty squad and make him or her a normal squad member rather than the squad commander. That sounds pretty handy, so we were happy to add that option for you my friends. So just hold down shift when you drop them onto a fleet/wing/squad commander slot and they will be added to that group as normal squad members.
We also made some changes that will reduce the need for Fleet Window refreshes, and should result in smoother and better behaved Fleet Window.
Since we are allowing you to move bunch of pilots at once, it only made sense to allow the fleet bigshots to multiselect their little minions in the Fleet Composition window. That will allow them to easily organize their fleets based on ships, current location, skills or whatever important information they see there.
While we were at it, we decided to change the Ship Type column because it made little sense to hide the ship information if the ships were docked. So we changed that column to always list the ship types, and now the Location column will contain the information on whether the pilot is docked or not since we know that is still relevant information.
When we told the Council of Stellar Management (CSM) about the change we were making, they asked if we could add a column that showed the wing and squad of each pilot in the fleet. Since they asked kindly and I thought it would be super useful when rearranging fleets and consolidating members when the fleet started to thinning out, I just ninja'd that in.
That column will list the wing and squad names for each member, and the Fleet Composition list can be sorted on that column so it will be super easy to select all the members of say wing 4 and move them to over to wing 2.
That positional information used in the column is the same as the Fleet Window header uses and that exposed even further the bug many of you probably know and love where the header suggests that you are a member of a squad you are absolutely not in. You should probably start coming up with new excuses for not following the orders of your fleet commander, because "but the fleet window said I was in that squad" is probably not going to fly anymore after that bug has been fixed.
We are now looking into reducing the delay in the Fleet Composition window. At this point I can't make any promises on that, but am really hoping all works out and we can change it in Rubicon, or one of the point releases.
Shortly after adding the multimove, I was noobing around in EVE and tried to drag a few of my fleetmates to the Watchlist. Of course that didn't work since a) multimove didn't exist on Tranquility and b) no changes had been made to the Watchlist to allow that... but the next day those changes had been made because they just made sense! (this does not mean you can add more than 15 to the watchlist!)
Fleet Setup
Those of you who regularly set up fleets know the joy of setting up the same fleets over and over. We figured we'd make it a little bit easier on you by allowing you to save your fleet setup, which you can then load up when you create a new fleet.
The way it works is that when you have named all your wings and are happy with your fleet setup, you simple select the "Store Setup" option in the Fleet windows setting menu, and save it. This will store the names of the Wings and the names of the squads that belong to them.
After we put this first on Sisi, you told us that you would like to include more fleet settings in the setup. We agreed and thought it was a good idea, so we offer you the option to include the current Free-Move and Voice settings as well as Message of the Day when you store your fleet setup.
Then next time you load up your fleet, you simply select the setup you want to load under the "Fleet Setups" option in the Fleet window menu and the wings in it are loaded up if there is space for them.
We at CCP work under a strict "if you care about your wing, name it!"-policy. I might have made that up just now, but that is the "policy" we are using for these fleet setups. Before saving a setup, you will need to name all the wings, and when you load up a setup, any empty and nameless wing will be deleted to try to make space for any named wings you might be loading up. Any wings that are named or non-empty will be left intact.
In the cases where you cannot successfully load up one or more wing or squad, you will be informed of which groups failed to load, and you can always try to load the setup again after making the needed adjustment to the fleet.
Any member of the fleet can store the current fleet setup, and they are stored server-side for each pilot, but only the Fleet Boss and the Fleet Commander have the power to load up fleet settings for their fleet.
If you are still reading you are a hero!
That's it for now, I hope you find these changes somewhat useful :)

The Killing isn’t dead yet.
A month after AMC pulled the plug on the whodunit, two potential suitors with experience bringing axed TV series back to life — Netflix and DirecTV — are in early talks with Fox TV Studios to pick up a third season of the show, multiple sources confirm to TVLine exclusively.
A rep for Netflix declined to comment, while a DirecTV spokesperson said, “We are constantly having conversations about bringing new shows to Audience Network, and we do take a look at everything that is available, but we haven’t made any decisions this summer in regards to new programming.”
This past spring, Netflix — which is behind the second coming of Arrested Development — flirted with acquiring ill-fated dramas The River and Terra Nova. DirecTV, meanwhile, rescued critical darlings Friday Night Lights and Damages from certain death.
In an interview one month before The Killing‘s cancellation, leading man Joel Kinnaman told TVLine that he believed that there was life in the show beyond the Rosie Larsen mystery that dominated the first two seasons. “We’ve invested a lot in these characters and want to see how they continue their journey,” he said. “I feel like Linden and Holder [are] just [getting] started.” | positive |
Netflix released its first movie portraying EDM culture. XOXO joins a recent set of movies centered around electronic music, including We Are Your Friends and Electric Daisy Carnival Experience.
The plot centers around six individuals who all come together to a big music festival named “XOXO”. It also includes themes such as festival romances and break-ups, the effects of fame, and the importance of friendship. The movie stars Modern Family’s Sarah Hyland, Graham Phillips (The Good Wife), Chris D’Elia (Undateable), Brett Delbuono, Haley Kiyoko, Colin Woodell, Ryan Hansen, Ian Anthony Dale, Scotty Dickert, and Ione Skye.
With Pete Tong as music supervisor, the soundtrack features songs from high-profile producers like Skrillex, Diplo, and Disclosure. Galantis and East & Young also produced an exclusive track for the movie, “Make Me Feel”.
Check out the trailer and the exclusive track below.

Testimony of the Day
PHOTO TESTIMONY: “Hiya Maria and Craig! My name is Whitney Bray, and though we have never had a conversation before- you have changed my life.
I grew up in a paycheck to paycheck household that lived on microwave dinners and fast food. I was not encouraged to join sports or do outdoor activities, and was often told that my weight was ‘genetic’ and ‘inevitable’. I spent 22+ years of my life believing that.
I had tried a few things like name brand diets, high end diet pills that I had seen my mom take, nothing worked and I was completely miserable. At 5′ 2″ I weighed in at over 225lbs and I was very weak. My digestive system was a wreck, I couldn’t jog down to the end of the driveway, and I was miserable.
Then after a journey of learning to love myself, instead of hating myself, a friend told me about Keto. And it wasn’t long after that, that I found your book Keto-Adapted. I had already read two other lchf books first- but they were not easily accessible. They didn’t truly explain the importance of being keto-adapted, and how to get there, and didn’t address pre-existing problems caused by carb intolerance. Your book was a miracle in my life. I bought all of your cookbooks for my kindle app on my phone and I check your site almost daily!! I make your low carb bread and fudge cookies almost weekly for my 2 year old son and my husband.
Since eating the Maria Way I’ve lost 50lbs!!! And more importantly, I feel better than ever before!! I am doing things I never thought I’d do. I went from trying my hand at yoga and being timid that my weight would keep me from gaining anything from the practice- to doing Aerial Yoga every week! So it’s not just about the fat loss, it’s also about how much I’ve gained from improving my health.
So thank you, thank you so very much for giving me confidence in providing my son with a much healthier beginning than I had when I was growing up, for helping my husband repair his leptin response and aid him in his new journey to do powerlifting competitions, and thank you from the bottom of my heart for showing me what it feels like, to be healthy.
Forever grateful, Whitney Bray”

I’m not one to watch a lot of TV, but I do love cooking shows! My favorite one is MasterChef! They made eclairs on this show which inspired me to create a “healthified” eclair, but I also watch a show called the Best American Baking Competition. The contestants on this show also had to make Eclairs. One of the judges claimed the contestant had too much filling in the eclair! WHAT? Craig and I looked at each other and laughed! That is NEVER a bad thing as you can clearly see by Micah’s expression and the filling dripping down his face!
Chocolate Eclair Print Prep time 10 mins Cook time 15 mins Total time 25 mins NOTE: If you use this on your Pure Protein and Fat day, do not use ChocoPerfection chocolate, you must use the homemade version. Author: Maria Emmerich Recipe type: Dessert Cuisine: American Serves: 6 Ingredients 3 eggs, separated
¼ cup vanilla whey or egg white protein
3 oz cream cheese (softened) OMIT IF DAIRY ALLERGY and add reserved yolks
⅛ tsp cream of tartar
4 TBS Swerve or 1 tsp stevia glycerite
CUSTARD FILLING:
6 large egg yolks
½ cup unsweetened almond milk
¼ cup Swerve (or erythritol and ¼ tsp stevia glycerite)
¼ cup butter or coconut oil, melted
CHOCOLATE (EASY OPTION):
2 ChocoPerfection Bars (I used Raspberry chocolate bar)
4-6 TBS unsweetened almond milk
CHOCOLATE (Homemade OPTION):
2 TBS butter or coconut oil
1 oz unsweetened baking chocolate
10 TBS heavy cream or coconut milk
¼ cup cups confectioners Swerve
1 tsp stevia glycerite Instructions Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Separate the eggs and whip the whites and cream of tartar until very stiff (I use my beloved stand mixer and let it go for 5 minutes). Slowly sift in the protein powder into the whites. Combine softened cream cheese (OR YOLKS) and natural sweetener. Using a spatula, very gently fold the cream cheese into the whites. Spray a lasagna pan with coconut oil spray and spoon the mixture into it in tube-like shapes (if the whites fall, put the mixture into greased muffin tins). Bake for 18 minutes. Remove pans from oven and let cool on a cooling rack. To make the CUSTARD: Whisk egg yolks, almond milk, and natural sweetener in medium metal bowl to blend. Slowly mix in the melted butter so the eggs don't cook unevenly. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water. Whisk mixture constantly and vigorously until thickened and instant-read thermometer inserted into mixture registers 140°F for 3 minutes, about 5 minutes total (or coats the back of a spoon). Remove mixture from over water and chill for at least 1 hour in the fridge. (It can be prepared 1-3 days ahead and refrigerated. Re-whisk before serving.) Place in a ziplock bag. Cut the corner of the bag and pipe the mixture into the éclairs. To make CHOCOLATE EASY OPTION: Chop the bars into small pieces. In a double boiler or microwavable bowl, combine ingredients. Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir well. Drizzle onto éclairs and let rest on cooling rack until glaze has set. To make HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE: Place the butter and chopped chocolate in a double boiler (or in a heat safe dish over a pot of boiling water). Stir well until just melted (don't burn the chocolate!), add in the cream, and natural sweetener. Stir until smooth and thick. Smooth all over the top of the cooled eclairs.

Acetylcholine
In my book: Secrets to Controlling Your Weight Cravings and Mood, I discuss the main neurotransmitters responsible for a healthy brain (serotonin, GABA, dopamine and acetylcholine). Most people haven’t heard of acetylcholine, but it is so important! Acetylcholine controls the brain’s speed and mental process, keeping memory sharp and physical movements quick and precise. Acetylcholine controls activity in the parietal lobe, the area of the brain responsible for processing sensory information, learning, memory and awareness. Inadequate levels of this chemical can cause forgetfulness, Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis, dementia, dry mouth, dry skin, reading or writing disorders, speech problems, slow movement, mood swings, difficulty prioritizing tasks and an inability to relate to others.
Most women are predisposed to an acetylcholine deficiency, because these symptoms set in with peri-menopause. Estrogen and testosterone stimulate the production of acetylcholine. As levels of those hormones decline, so does the production of this brain chemical. This prompts symptoms like memory lapses, dry skin and weight gain. The cholesterol in yolks help produce hormones levels. The reason why cholesterol levels go up after menopause is because your body is trying to produce more estrogen (which your ovaries are no longer releasing).
In the late 1930s, scientists discovered that tissue from the pancreas contained a substance, called Choline, which helps prevent fatty build-up in the liver and produces acetylcholine. Since then, research has shown that choline is found not only in the pancreas and liver, but is also a huge component of every human cell. Choline is named after the Greek word which means bile, which is very appropriate. Bile, which is produced in our liver, has a primary job of making fat compatible with water, so that fat-based matter can get transported though the body in our water-based blood. Interestingly, Choline has very comparable fat-modifying effects on our cellular membrane. The reason that choline decreases fat storage is that it allows our cell membranes to operate with greater flexibility in handling both fat and water-soluble molecules. In other words, without choline, fat-based nutrients and waste products could not pass in and out of our cells. Therefore, healthy fats can’t get into our cells to make our brain healthy, skin soft, and cells happy AND we can’t get the stored toxic fat out! Choline is a key component of the fat-containing structures in cell membranes. Since cell membranes are almost entirely made up of fats, the membranes’ health depends on adequate amounts of choline.
To produce more acetylcholine, enjoy three servings of choline-rich foods; like eggs (I’m talking about the yolks here…Egg Beaters don’t count). Grass-fed, organic eggs are the most beneficial. Grass-fed eggs contain a very high level of healthy omega 3s compared to store-bought eggs. Omega 3 will also stimulate a happier brain by assisting our cells to communicate. “Happy cells are talking cells.” Supplemental choline has even shown effectiveness in treating Alzheimer’s disease.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai. AP Google could lose up to $750 million from the advertiser boycott related to ads appearing next to extremist content like videos, according to a note from analysts at Nomura Instinet.
According to the note, Google-owned YouTube, which relies on big brands' advertising, could take a 7.5% hit to its revenues, which are estimated to be $10.2 billion for 2017.
Five of the top 20 US advertisers have frozen their advertising with Google, as have dozens more around the world. Those five companies make up 7.5% of US ad spend, according to the note.
Traditional TV companies will likely look to capitalize on the boycott during the upfronts — when networks try to sell the bulk of their advertising — which run from March to May and emphasize the view that advertising on TV guarantees brand safety with large-scale audiences, according to the note.
Nomura Instinet
Other platforms that rely on user-generated content — such as Facebook, Twitter, and Snapchat — could also be scrutinized more closely as a result of the boycott, the note suggested.
Notes from Wall Street analysts at RBC Capital Markets and Morgan Stanley last week, however, downplayed the effect of the advertiser boycott and maintained positive ratings of the company. Morgan Stanley, for example, said the top 100 advertisers on Google likely represented less than 20% of the company's total revenues.
Analysts at Nomura say YouTube could introduce solutions to increase brand safety but that the development of those could affect the company financially.
"Ad buyers are likely to demand greater direct control over ad placement, which could take time and resources to implement," the note said.
Google has said it will update its ad policies, employ more people to review content, and introduce more controls for advertisers.
More than 250 brands have pulled their advertising from Google's display ads network and YouTube, according to The Times. Search advertising, which makes up the bulk of Google's revenue, wouldn't be affected by the ad boycott. | positive |
Virtual reality is, without a doubt, the fastest-growing tech trend of 2016. In 2015, investments in the space totaled about $700 million. By the end of Q1 2016, that figure had already exceed $1 billion, and may more than double by the end of the year.
The technology has captured the public eye like no other, and it’s not surprising that VCs are doubling down on new virtual experiences, apps, hardware, and more. Analysts and developers alike consider VR a new paradigm, not a fad. The tech is here to stay, and there is money to be made.
The advice applies just as much to virtual reality’s cousins augmented reality and mixed reality, of course. The recent craze for a certain electric rodent proves that augmented reality is just as, if not more, likely to cash in the new tech as expensive HMDs.
In fact, it is entirely possible that augmented reality is more viable than virtual reality as an investment and development opportunity. VR has a striking limitation when viewed from a business perspective, a problem that AR elegantly solves or sidesteps altogether.
Just why is that?
Roadblocks to Mainstream VR
The biggest challenge virtual reality faces in mass market acceptance is its high cost of entry. Although mobile-based HMDs built on Google Cardboard are effective enough in their way, they don’t hold a candle to the experiences offered by Oculus and HTC.
The problem with those experiences is that they require both a $600-$800 HMD, and a PC capable of supporting them. When all is said and done, the total ticket price for high-end VR can easily approach $2,000 if starting from scratch.
Oculus and HTC know it, too, but to date they have not been able to overcome the issue. Even the GearVR, HTC’s entry into the low-end, mobile-based VR market, requires a top-of-the-line Samsung phone on top of the $79.99 MSRP headset.
Although plenty of early adopters have happily paid these prices, it will take time for a critical mass of consumers to buy in. One thing that would help speed widespread adoption would be plenty of compelling content. However, many of the largest game and app developers are taking a “Wait and See” attitude towards VR, hoping that the install base will grow before they invest in content creation.
It’s a Catch-22, and it’s holding VR back.
How AR Is Set for Success
Augmented reality, in most applications, has effectively zero barrier to entry. Although the Microsoft HoloLens, the Epson Moverio line, and other dedicated AR HMDs are impressive technology, they have to date been targeted more to enterprise and corporate use than the consumer space.
From the consumer perspective, augmented reality is based entirely in the ordinary smartphone. AR apps, or AR features in existing apps, are released seemingly every day, and they all require nothing more than the user to point their iPhone or Android camera and peer through the screen.
The act is something millions upon millions of users perform daily, and AR simply makes it more impressive and more useful. And in that way, it makes it more familiar to and more accepted by the mass market.
The largest investors have cottoned on to this simple truth. Today, AR investments are expected to exceed $90 billion by 2020 by analysts at Digi-Capital. Investments into VR, by contrast, are expected to reach $30 billion.
The Pokémon Effect
Digi-Capital’s forecast was made in January 2016, and since then something happened that may have drastically accelerated the timeline. In July, a game called Pokémon GO hit the App Store and Google Play.
The speed with which the game conquered the cultural zeitgeist was nothing short of astonishing. Within one week, the game had been downloaded more than 7 million times. Its two closest competitors, Angry Birds 2 and Candy Crush Jelly Saga, totaled about 4 million downloads in the same time span, taken together.
Although the birds might be angry and the candy might be crushed over Pokémon’s success, the overall effect for augmented industry space is a very positive one. Where before AR was a niche term, something with which only tech enthusiasts might be familiar, today the word is on everyone’s lips. The public knows what augmented reality is, and the public wants more.
Why Augmented Reality is a Better Investment?
For developers and investors alike, augmented reality is likely a better investment than virtual reality. At least at this stage of the game, the potential market for AR is much larger. Although both technologies are certainly “hot trends” and are receiving a great deal of press attention, augmented reality is at this point more familiar to consumers.
The tech world moves very fast. It’s certainly possible that in a few years, HMDs and high-end PCs will be in every home. As developers, we love working with VR, and we believe that it is the future. At the moment, though, we’re placing our money on AR. AR needs only a smartphone, and everyone has one of those. | positive |
News Flash – Donetsk hit by over 800 artillery strikes (UPDATED)
The Russia media is reporting that today Donetsk was hit by a record 800 artillery shells. The Telmanovo suburb was hit particularly hard, but the shelling was also very violent in the airport region. Furthermore, DNR intelligence services have reported a steady movement of Ukronazi forces towards the line of contact. These forces include tanks and artillery systems, even multiple rocket launchers. Yesterday, a group of 8 tanks backed by armoured personnel carriers attempted to attack Novorussian positions, but there were beat back. Two Ukronazi tanks were destroyed. Does that mean that a junta attack is imminent?
Maybe.
The logical conclusion would be that yes, indeed, an attack is imminent and that the current Ukronazi attacked are probing attack, reconnaissance by fire, to test the Novorussian defenses. It makes no sense at all the bring in more and more forces and then keep the in the field doing nothing. But then, the junta has done so many illogical and plain stupid things during this war that I would not put it past them to just move forces and order shelling to, say, “impress” the British Defense Secretary. This is a time tested Ukronazi policy: every time some high ranking western official shows up on Kiev, they beg for money and show their “magnificent” resolve to “defend Europe against the Russian hordes”. Shelling civilians is usually how this resolve is demonstrated by the Ukronazis.
Still, even though it may sound like we are crying wolf, we should keep on reporting that the junta forces are poised for an attack regardless of whether this attack actually materializes or not, if only because that is yet another direct violation of even the very first provisions of M2A which, as I have been saying for weeks now, is dead, dead, dead, dead and dead. The only reason why so many pretend that it is not is because the alternative is too horrible to contemplate. Still, M2A was stillborn and never had a chance. As long as a Nazi junta is in power in Kiev there is no hope for peace. None.
The Saker
UPDATE: Predictably, the West blames Novorussia. See here. Apparently, the Novorussians are “shelling themselves” again… | positive |
I have been playing with both Ocaml and Haskell* lately. In Ocaml, I have been rewriting a lot of simple Python scripts I use at work to see how they compare. They tend to be faster and more trustworthy. Ocaml, though, has pretty bad concurrency support. They have some thread library that wraps the OS threads, no real good message passing interface. Even the guys at Jane St have listed that as a complaint**.So I decided to check out Haskell again. With Haskell I have always thought it was a great language, but could never grok it. That sounds a little weird, but reading Haskell code is simply great. When you figure out what it does, it tends to be very expressive and flexible. After looking at what Haskell offers for concurrency, I think that in theory it could give Erlang a serious run for its money. Here's why:- Haskell, in general and in my opinion, is a safer language to write code in than Erlang. One can do a lot of work with Dialyzer to verify their code, but they are still somewhat limited. Haskells type system is very expressive and powerful. Haskell also has ADT's, which as far as I know Erlang still does not. For an idea of why ADT's are so powerful when it comes to writing safe code, see the Caml Trading video. And in this case, by 'safe' I mean writing correct code.- Haskell produces generally fast code. GHC does some impressive optimizations, and supercompilation*** is most likely getting going to be part of GHC in the near future. It should noted that while Haskell can produce fast results, its lazyness can also be unpredictable in the optimizations (both speed and memory) that it performs. This is believed, by many, to be a big drawback to Haskell. I haven't done enough work in Haskell to really say how bad this is but Real World Haskell does give a complete chapter to diagnosing performance problems and optimizing them.- Haskell's threading implementation uses green threads with a many-to-one mapping to OS threads. This means you can take advantage of multiple cores without modifying your Haskell code. The Erlang VM does this too, with SMP support. The greenthread implementation also appears to be blazing fast. Haskell is number one in the threadring solution on the language shootout. Erlang is about 4x slower. Take from that what you will.- You can implement Erlang-like best-case programming in Haskell, from what I can tell. Haskell supports Exceptions, and you can throw exceptions to other threads using asynchronous exceptions. This gives you a way to 'link' threads like you can link Erlang processes. It is still programmer driven, so you can make a mistake, point for Erlang.- STM, while I haven't read up on this, it seems like a pretty great way to handle synchronization between threads.- Monads. When reading up on concurrency in Haskell, monads seemed to often come up as valuable in ensuring correctness. For example, in an STM transaction, one wants to restrict the transaction from doing things that cannot be rolled back, such as IO. This is done by the 'atomically' function taking an STM monad as input and wrapping the output in an IO monad. What this all means is one can't do IO in the atomically block unless it's unsafe. The ability to restrict what the user can do, when one wants to, with the type system is quite powerful.That being said, Haskell does have some clear losses next to Erlang. The biggest drawback is the lack of a distributed model. There is distributed Haskell, I have not researched it much but I'm under the impression it is not 'there' yet. Erlang is easy to learn, very easy. Haskell is not. I have found that, in order to write really good Haskell code, one has to keep a lot of stuff in their head at once. Perhaps this is just because I am new but I have found Haskell better to read than to write. Erlang is not like this, while the syntax has some peculiarities to it, it is not hard to pick up and start writing good Erlang. I think Ocaml shares more in common to Erlang in this regard. The hump one needs to get over in order to write solid Haskell code is a real and legitimate reason to not choose Haskell.All that being said, I admittedly am fairly new to Haskell so these opinions will change over time, I'm planning on putting more effort into writing real projects in Haskell to see how it goes. Needless to say, I am impressed by what Haskell has to offer for concurrency. If I'm factually wrong on anything here, please correct me, this is all based on some reading research I've been doing on Haskell, not my actual experiences.* When I say Haskell, I really mean GHC here** Yaron Minsky's Caml Trading lecture, very good! Makes a great, practical argument, for Ocaml - http://ocaml.janestreet.com/?q=node/61*** Supercompilation http://community.haskell.org/~ndm/downloads/slides-supercompilation_for_haskell-03_mar_2009.pdf

Move marks departure from election promise to close camp and use civilian law to fight terrorism
Barack Obama has given the green light to resume military trials of terror suspects detained at Guantánamo Bay, making a sharp departure from his election promises to close the camp and bring America's fight against terrorism back into the remit of civilian law.
The US president lifted a suspension on so-called "military commissions" which he had imposed on his first full day in the White House. By so doing, he permitted the revival of trials conducted by military officers, with a military judge presiding.
Obama also signed an executive order that moved to set into law the already existing practice on Guantánamo of holding detainees indefinitely without charge.
The president sought to sweeten the pill among civil rights and liberal groups of the resumption of two of the most widely criticised aspects of George Bush's war on terror by emphasising that he still wished to see Guantánamo close. When he came into office in January 2009, he repeatedly promised to have the campclosed within one year. It was set up in the wake of 9/11 in 2001 and thereafter the war in Afghanistan.
As another sweetener, he also defied Republican opposition and said he would continue to allow terror suspects to be tried in federal civilian courts, known as Article III courts, on the US mainland. "I strongly believe that the American system of justice is a key part of our arsenal in the war against al-Qaida and its affiliates. We will continue to draw on all aspects of our justice system including Article III courts to ensure that our security and our values are strengthened," he said.
But civil rights groups condemned what they saw as a decision that flew in the face of the president's earlier promises to close the camp. "The irony could not be more pronounced," said Wells Dixon, a lawyer with the Centre for Constitutional Rights (CCR).
"He came into office saying it was one of his national security priorities to close Guantánamo, yet he has now become one of the first presidents to codify a policy of indefinite detention."
Critics see the resumption of the military trials as confirmation that Guantánamo will be closing no time soon. Under the executive orders allowing detention without charge, there is an in-built review process that allows cases to be reconsidered after the first year and then every four years thereafter.
CCR said that was in itself a tacit admission that Guantánamo would remain a place of extra-judicial detention.
Dixon said that the four-year reviews were also, in legal terms, strikingly similar to the so-called combatant status review tribunals set up by the Bush administration in 2005 and struck down by the supreme court as essentially unconstitutional in 2008.
"This is creating a bureaucratic morass that will achieve nothing legally but will ensure Guantánamo remains open," he said.
Some relatives of victims of the September 2001 attacks said that they were also disappointed by the resumption of military trials. Colleen Kelly, whose brother Bill Kelly Jr died in the Twin Towers on 9/11, said that she knew all too well how important it was to protect all people, not just Americans, from the threat of terrorism.
"There are some seriously dangerous people being held in Guantánamo Bay, I think the world understands that.
"But I think there's also a huge opportunity here being missed to show the world that not only does the US talk the talk, we walk the walk also." She said that the past nine years since 9/11 showed that the criminal system of justice had proven to be fully robust enough to deal with difficult terrorism cases. "There have been more than 170 successful anti-terror prosecutions in civilian courts since 9/11, which to me suggests they work."
Some 172 detainees remain in Guantánamo, of whom fewer than 40 have been earmarked for trial in either criminal courts or military commissions.
Before the military commissions were suspended by Obama, only a handful of cases were ever fully processed under them. Most of them involved guilty pleas, such as that of the Australian David Hicks who was returned to Australia after his conviction.
Salim Ahmed Hamdan, Osama bin Laden's driver, was convicted by military tribunal in 2008 and was returned later that year to Yemen to serve the remainder of his five-and-a-half-year sentence.
It is not yet clear how cases will be decided in terms of whether they should be heard in a civilian or military setting. The issue has become a political hot potato, with Republicans strenuously opposing the transfer of terror suspects to criminal courts on US soil.
The revival of the military commissions is likely to stoke speculation surrounding Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the suspected principal architect of 9/11. The Obama administration had announced that he would go on trial in a criminal court in New York, but the move provoked a storm of protests from across the political spectrum.
Other possible candidates for a military trial include Abd al-Rahim al Nashiri, the alleged mastermind of the 2000 attack on the USS Cole warship in which 17 American sailors were killed.
Guantánamo timeline
11 January 2002 First prisoners arrive at prison camp set up in the US naval base at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba. Dressed in US prison-issue orange jumpsuits, the detainees enter Camp Xray.
21 March 2002 New military tribunals for detainees are announced.
3 July 2003 President George Bush designates six suspected al-Qaida members as eligible for military tribunals, the first since the second world war.
7 July 2003 The Pentagon creates special military panels (Combatant Status Review Tribunals, or CSRTs) to determine "enemy combatant" status.
23 February 2004 Bush administration lays first charges against detainees. Ali Hamza al-Bahlul from Yemen and Ibrahim al-Qosi from Sudan are charged with conspiracy to commit war crimes.
29 March 2005 The CSRT process is completed. In all, 558 detainees complete the process, with 38 judged to be no longer enemy combatants and eligible for release.
15 February 2006 A UN report recommends closure of Guantánamo. Bush speaks in June of his desire to do so.
29 June 2006 The US supreme court rules the military commission system for Guantánamo violates US and international law, and that the Geneva conventions do apply to detainees.
16 November 2008 President-elect Barack Obama declares his intention to close the prison at Guantánamo.
22 January 2009 Obama orders closure of the prison in one year. New military commissions at the prisonare also suspended.
5 January 2010 After admitting in November 2009 that plans to close the prison by January of 2010 had been missed, Obama reaffirms plans to close the camp later in the year.
7 March 2011 In an apparent acknowledgment that the camp won't be shut down any time, Obama lifts a two-year freeze on new military trials there. | positive |

× Seattle city attorney to ask for dismissal of public marijuana use citations
SEATTLE — Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes is expected to ask for all public marijuana use citations written in the first seven months of the year be dismissed, according to a presentation to be given at Monday’s city council meeting.
Police issued 86 infractions in the first six months of the year — primarily in the West Precinct.
80-percent of those infractions were written by a single police officer, Randy Jokela. An investigation into the officer’s high number of citations is expected to wrap up in the next few weeks, according to a letter from Seattle Police Chief, Kathleen O’Toole to Holmes.
“In order to treat everyone equally during this time period, the City Attorney’s Office will request that all infractions issued between January 1 and July 30, 2014, be dismissed with prejudice,” the presentation says.
Officials say police are developing a new “enforcement directive” when it comes to handling public marijuana use.
According to the presentation, under the new directive:
Officers will first warn people whenever practical, but warnings are not required
Officers will use Misc. Incident Report (MIR) to document oral warnings
SPD direct files infractions in Seattle Municipal Court as with other infractions
A civil infraction is $27, according to police:
“It is unlawful to open a package containing or consume marijuana, useable marijuana or a marijuana-infused product in view of the general public. SMC 12A.20.100.” | positive |
SHOULD OXYTOCIN BE KNOWN AS THE “HERD” HORMONE?
Terrorists, you may assume, must have low levels of oxytocin. Why else would they be willling to kill strangers for the sake of some twisted ideological cause?
A 2010 study throws doubt on this assumption. Researchers found that oxytocin makes you believe your group is superior to other groups. It could even make you willing to use violence to defend your group against a perceived threat.
Oxytocin also makes you conform to group norms.
Before, it was assumed that testosterone was the main hormone promoting violence. But it seems that while testosterone promotes violence for personal gain, oxytocin promotes violence for the benefit of your group.
Imagine a mother bear killing to protect her cub. This is an act of violence linked to oxytocin. Humans are the most social creatures on the planet. Our groups are large. Are acts of terrorism fuelled by this oxytonergic mechanism?
If so, what is it exactly that oxytocin does?
First, it is important to note that simply being around other people makes you stressed. Your blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing rate goes up. You are more alert. Why? Because the presence of others is a potential danger. It’s hard to tell whether other people can be trusted. And there is a risk of being evaluated negatively by people in your group. What if you make a fool of yourself? You could get ejected from the group.
Anxiety is linked to higher activity in your amygdala. Oxytocin reduces this activity. It sends a signal: “I can trust this person.” Your blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing rate goes down. You are more calm.
The link between a mother and her baby is oxytocinergic. A newborn child trusts his or her mother.
The trust between you and other people, however, must be learned. And conformity is an excellent way of doing so.
If people act and look the same, you can be sure that they belong to the same group. If you can trust one of them, you can probably trust the other. When you are conforming to the norms of your group, you are telling them: “I can be trusted; I’m one of you.”
Evidence in favor of this can be seen in two developmental disorders: William’s syndrome and autism. Children with William’s syndrome trust strangers. They will trust everyone they meet, regardless of whether they are in their group or not. Children with autism will often not even trust their mother. What’s the difference betwen the two disorders? Children with William’s syndrome have high levels of oxytocin, while children with autism have low levels.
Oxytocin does more than reduce anxiety, however. It uses dopamine and endorphins to strenghten social bonds. Dopamine produces motivation. Endorphins produces enjoyment. Oxytocin + dopamine = social motivation. Oxytocin + endorphins = social enjoyment.
If we take all of this and try to sum up the effects of oxytocin in a single statement, what would it be? Maybe this: Oxytocin creates tribes. It’s the “tribe” hormone.
Let’s take another look at testosterone. Earlier, we we said that testosterone promoted violence for personal gains. Testosterone is in fact the mirror opposite of oxytocin. It is the hormone of selfishness.
In the last 20,000 years, our brains have shrunk by the size of a tennis ball. Why? Because levels of testosterone has gone down. And testosterone makes the body larger.
Why did we lose testosterone?
One hypothesis is that human tribes killed high-testosterone individuals. Because they were selfish.
And if so, oxytocin may in fact be responsible.
While oxytocin may promote violence between tribes, it is also making tribes in the world grow bigger.
It may not be the hormone of love, but it remains vital to the existence of human bonds. So when other tribes threaten ours, we will stand together. We have to be careful, though. Because we may confuse the small tribe attacking us with the larger tribe they are part of.

Had he known coming in that seven of the 12 bouts at UFC Fight Night 114 would end in a first-round finish, Rashad Evans would have prayed that he find himself on the right side of one. Nobody on the card needed a victory as badly as Evans, who snuck into Mexico City as quietly as an ex-champion possibly could for his fight with “Smiling” Sam Alvey, as if to see if he could escape notice. Those who did notice spoke of it mostly in hushed tones. If Evans couldn’t beat a middling middleweight like Alvey, then…well, you know, the fight game has a way of turning a cold shoulder on aging glories in search of rediscovery.
Evans did not have the “get well” fight he hoped for with Alvey. After relocating his camp to New Jersey from his comfortable environs in Florida, he tried to squeeze back into his singlet. He wanted to take Alvey to the ground where he could run roughshod over somebody — anybody — just like the old days. It didn’t work. When he shot in on Alvey they slowed to a traffic crawl on the fence, a toilsome dance that made the altitude burn right through their shoulders. When they weren’t clinched Alvey and Evans kept a range that you could drive a tractor through. It was cautious get-back-to-basics combat between an admittedly star-struck fighter and gun-shy former champion.
For everybody else, it was an exercise in frustration. “Suga” Rashad Evans just couldn’t find the sweet spot he had been looking for. Turns out his mojo wasn’t hiding south of the border.
Alvey ended up taking a split decision in what quickly became a fight of reluctance — reluctance to pull the trigger from both sides, reluctance to fight to win rather than not to lose, reluctance to admit what so many were thinking as it unfolded (that it’s over). It was Evans’ fourth loss in a row, and the sixth split decision of his career, with the first four going his way. He dropped a split decision against Daniel Kelly his last time out at UFC 209. You might remember he started his UFC career with a pair of split decision victories over Brad Imes and Sammy Hoger, the latter coming in his foray back to his natural weight class of 205 pounds. For so long, Evans had survived his share of teetering scorecards.
Not this time.
If that was it for Evans, it was a dying trumpet sound drifting off Popocatépetl. Early on in his career coming off of The Ultimate Fighter 2 heavyweight tournament, he shimmied and showboated like few fighters we’d seen, much to the dismay of those traditionalists who still saw the game as a showcase of respect. Against Alvey he didn’t do much of anything. The old swagger was gone. It wasn’t even the mighty swan song he sang for Chuck Liddell at UFC 88 coming back for him, the one where Evans — then the upstart — coolly waited on the “Iceman” to come in with his hands down. Though Liddell would ultimately require further proof, it was Evans that showed him that the game had passed him by with a massive right hand.
Just as it was Evans that took Forrest Griffin’s title back at UFC 92, knocking him out in the third round. Evans was a UFC champion for a little shy of five months, but it was a marquee distinction that stayed with him the whole way. He lost his title to Lyoto Machida, but worked his way back into contention by winning four straight fights. In that four-fight run he took out old guard members like Tito Ortiz and his rival, Quinton Jackson. He was the cruel reality towards the end of careers. Then he lost to Jon Jones at UFC 145, in a fight that had all the hallmark ingredients of a big fight — loyalty betrayal, broken friendship, bitter blood.
Just like everyone else at 205 pounds, he couldn’t get by Jones.
Looking back, Evans may never have recovered from that loss. His “get well” fight that time against Antonio Rogerio Nogueira was perhaps the most disappointing of his career, a listless performance at UFC 156 that turned a setback into a mini-spiral. He righted himself to a degree by the time he TKO’d Chael Sonnen, but that was three-and-a-half years ago. Since then it’s been four losses, camp relocations, weight-class reinventions, sketchy MRIs, and a growing sense of nostalgia. He got knocked out violently against Glover Teixeira. Then he lost to a softener in Daniel Kelly. And now to Alvey down in Mexico.
Evans was hoping to quietly smuggle out a victory, and to see where that might take him next. It simply didn’t happen. Alvey did just enough to present Evans with the truth of the matter, which is that the writing on the wall is this time meant for him. It was a tough thing to watch. In fact, it was a wholly forgettable fight.
Forgettable even for “Suga” Rashad. At some point, the sweet memories will take the place of the sour notes at the end. That will happen. In the meantime, it’s a lot of reflections. | positive |
Alabama may be the defending SEC champions heading into the 2015 season, but it is their Iron Bowl rival that is receiving the most praise and favorite label in the SEC in most college football circles this offseason. The addition of Will Muschamp as defensive coordinator is one of the most noteworthy assistant coaching changes this year, and the Tigers return some good talent on the field in 2015. Now, according to their hard-working sports information directors that make the lives of college football media types so much easier on a daily basis, Auburn is the favorite to play for the SEC title in 2015. Their opponent? Georgia.
All 14 SIDs in the SEC were polled by Al.com, and Auburn received three first-place votes and three second-place votes from the seven ballots from SEC West representatives. Alabama received an equal number of first-place votes and one fewer second-place vote. Georgia was a more clear favorite in the other division, receiving six of seven first-place votes. Missouri was the lone program receiving the one first-place vote not awarded to the Bulldogs. Missouri has played in the SEC Championship Game each of the past two seasons representing the SEC East. As noted by Al.com, SIDs could not vote for their own school.
If these predictions hold true, we will get a preview of the SEC Championship Game in mid-November. Georgia will visit Auburn on November 14.
Auburn and Georgia have 10 combined appearances in the SEC Championship Game, but have never faced each other in Atlanta.

Robert Altman fit none of these molds, just as he never managed to conform to the image of a Hollywood director. At school he was not much taken with anything except pranks and mischief. He liked to have a good time and he enjoyed the facilities of that philosophy--a little booze, some girls, late nights, and spare time. He had an instinct for moviemaking, proved on training films at Calvin, and occasionally he decided that he really ought to try Hollywood. But several visits in the post war years came to nothing. He was busy and well-intentioned, but sort of aimless--is it possible that he never took himself that seriously? A few years later, he admitted that "I started in the film business not too long ago, right here on this soundstage. It was a stormy beginning, and as I remember, I was in such a hurry to ‘make it’ that I often forgot to stand still long enough to do what it was I was trying to do. I’m not sure--even today--that I knew what it was I was trying to do, but I do know that I tried very, very hard, and ran around and around my goal until either I or it became like tigers turning into a circle of melted butter. And never once stopping to wonder what it was I was chasing--or was it, by then, chasing me."
Ambition in movies was supposed to be more sharply focused, but Altman seemed to exist in his own haze. Gradually, during the 1950s and early 1960s, he gathered real credits: he did a bad picture called The Delinquents, and that got him the co-directing job on a maudlin documentary, The James Dean Story. (But there was no hint that Altman identified with Dean, or his troubled generation, or the mawkish theme song on the Dean film--"Let Me Be Loved.") He did some work directing television and he made a sci-fi picture called Countdown. What that meant was that as he came to make M.A.S.H., in 1970, he was already forty-five--in a movie world in which people such as Coppola, Lucas, Scorsese, Bogdanovich, and Spielberg were getting their break at half his age. Was the Kansas City man a late developer, or a drummer who moved to his own lazy beat?
Altman nearly missed out on M.A.S.H. He was not well known enough. There were arguments that it was right for Stanley Kubrick. But two friends, George Litto and Ingo Preminger, carried the day, despite the studio’s refusal to give Altman any points on profits. Then the picture was a breakout hit after Fox had thought it would need a lot of changes. Riotous preview screenings showed that Altman’s insouciance and irreverence had caught a new young mood of 1970. So the military field hospital in Korea abandoned every hallowed sense of duty and respect. It treated the doctoring as a bloody job for hip young guys worried about tee times and fucking nurses. Of course it was truer to life than any war comedy had ever been, and beneath the blood and the wisecracks it was easy to mistake Korea for Vietnam--who really knew, when it had been shot at Malibu and in the L.A. canyons? M.A.S.H. was a merciless celebration of a men’s club--perhaps the only sane way to handle a war--and was so steadily funny that audiences were either offended or charmed. But they were never indifferent. As much as any movie of the 1970s, M.A.S.H. divided the crowd--and though it got a best-picture nomination and a nod for Altman himself, the grindingly archaic Patton won those Oscars. In hindsight, we are left wishing that the inspired teasing and disrespect of Donald Sutherland and Elliott Gould could be ladled over the pomp of George C. Scott!
M.A.S.H. came from a novel that the distinguished scenarist Ring Lardner Jr. had adapted. But then Altman proceeded to trash and re-do Lardner’s script--the Oscar was the writer’s reward, said the deadpan Altman. At last a personal style was at work: the film was an excuse for an ensemble in which outward codes of rank and duty were dismantled by improvisation and insurrection. The players refused to take anything seriously, and Altman reduced everyone to the level of "support." All of a sudden you could detect an attitude in Altman that most set-piece American movies were stuffed, and deserved deflation and deconstruction. In time M.A.S.H. was a smash (the only one of Altman’s career), and so liberating that it paved the way for a TV series that increasingly settled for the sweet routines of character, comedy, and anti-war sentiments. The astonishing thing about the movie M.A.S.H.--and Altman made not a penny from the TV show--is that it did not even bother to be anti-war.
Neither McGilligan nor Zuckoff really explains how the breakthrough of M.A.S.H. changed Altman, or directed him. In part, this is because both authors found him elusive, rather less than honest, an opportunist, a man who rarely liked to reflect (in public) on his inner being or processes, but someone who could take steady advantage of all those around him. Altman does not make a natural or a comforting hero. He was a drinker, a marijuana connoisseur, a womanizer, a regular exploiter of his own writers. He seems to have had an innate antagonism to the storytelling contribution of his scripts. In interviews Altman could be skittish. Was he unreliable, forgetful, or stoned? In 1975 (after Nashville), this prompted a searching essay by Robin Wood called "Smart-ass and Cutie-pie," on how far Altman was an artist or just a whimsical man at play. Wood’s point remains valid, and it is sad that Zuckoff never picks it up. As with his own best characters, some sense endures of Altman as a lost soul or a bereft nihilist. He was also something of a fraud.
Yet a lot was revealed by the success of M.A.S.H. An astonishing calm and self-confidence--an arrogance nearly--took over in a series of films in which Altman pursued intense personal fantasy or began to strip the old wallpaper from Hollywood genres. Once lackadaisical or casual, he now seemed impassioned and driven: Brewster McCloud; McCabe & Mrs. Miller; Images; The Long Goodbye; Thieves Like Us; California Split; Nashville; Buffalo Bill and the Indians; 3 Women. It is one of the great runs of work in American film. The Chandler film is a satire on or a travesty of private-eye pictures, and McCabe & Mrs. Miller might be re-titled How the West Was Lost; and all these movies caught the audience off guard. As a bicentenary picture, Buffalo Bill was an exposé of all the hype and fraud in Americana. Rather than a tribute to country music and its spirit, Nashville was a pastiche in which any actor could and did write a country hit song. Country music hated the picture.
And just to torment the industry aroused by that $70 million take on M.A.S.H., the next nine films were disasters, flops, near misses, or half-hits. The blithe pattern of Altman’s career was established, well in advance of the "independent" movement in American cinema. If he could somehow find the money to make a film--albeit at his own ground level, where big names contributed themselves for scale--he hardly cared about the result. He would never recapture the fiscal dynamic of M.A.S.H., but he would never go to ground, or stop working.
There was more going on. Often using wide screens, Altman was developing a drifting camera style that roamed around its own imagery. He seemed sometimes to ooze in and out of his own film world. The cinematographer Vilmos Zsigmond was vital to this effort, but just as important was the way Altman began to mix multi-track sound recordings so that the sound focus seemed to move, with the result that no one could be quite sure what was said or heard. The creative climax of this style must be McCabe & Mrs. Miller, where Warren Beatty, the precise, controlling actor, grew increasingly angry and flummoxed that audiences could not hear every word he was agonizing over. Altman was nonchalant about the blur or the fuzz--it was a strength, he said, it was just like life. His films were becoming like a shifting surface, a labyrinth of ambiguity in which very little was fixed or certain. He was also rejecting the idea--the old Hollywood scheme--that films and life are about just a few people. Life, Altman insisted, is always a ragged circle in which anything that happens is contingent on how it registers on others. Misunderstanding may be a surer path of existence than the old tidy understanding.
Many people said that seeing an Altman picture was like being in a haze, a daze, a drug trip. For every claim that the style was ushering in a new openness of attitude, there were counters that it was just a lazy, dreamy director incapable of making up his mind. That is why the director-star conflict on McCabe goes to the heart of the film: is McCabe a tragic hero or a hopeless chump? Does Altman care, and is he trying to get us to care, or does nothing really matter in the drift? Mrs. Miller’s opium habit promotes the same detachment.
The argument is still open over the group of films as a whole. Nashville--much praised in its day by Pauline Kael, who lashed herself to Altman’s uncertain mast (thereby guaranteeing her subsequent betrayal)--looks like a perilously chic contrivance, with twenty-four characters for the sake of that many, vivid in performance but very sketchy in writing, and in a languid circus that needs the sudden intrusion of assassination to give it shape and an ending. So Nashville may be overrated. On the other hand, The Long Goodbye and McCabe & Mrs. Miller are surely among the most beautiful and musical films ever made. Altman loved music, and jazz especially (see the jam session movie that goes along with Kansas City), and Goodbye and McCabe are eccentric musicals--with one refrain all through the first and Leonard Cohen’s mutterings in the other. Moreover, Altman had reached a visionary insight that while Warren Beatty was a piercing but neurotic movie star, Elliott Gould’s Philip Marlowe was quite simply one of the hippest pieces of acting in the annals of film.
The Altman of those years was like Ingmar Bergman in the way he had gathered a creative family. It was a gang of oddball actors who had never quite found themselves elsewhere: Gould, Keith Carradine, Geraldine Chaplin, Henry Gibson, Shelley Duvall, Jeff Goldblum, and Lily Tomlin, awkward in everyone else’s films, but stunning for Altman. And he had his team behind the camera too, variously co-producers, co-writers, co-friends, and enablers--Tommy Thompson, Joan Tewkesbury, Robert Eggenweiler, Scott Bushnell, and Alan Rudolph. He was a producer for friends--and so he helped such valuable people as Alan Rudolph (Remember My Name) and Robert Benton (The Late Show), and much later there was a friendship and artistic alliance between Altman and Paul Thomas Anderson. It seemed a happy family until, all of a sudden, Bushnell sought more power and all was upheaval. Both McGilligan and Zuckoff do pretty well at tracing the internecine politics and the odd escapism with which Altman was a capricious emperor who would distribute favors and then give you the back of his hand.
He was not always an easy or safe man to like, or take for granted. The two books show very different experiences. Zuckoff was hired, he says, near the end of Altman’s life, to help write a memoir that would make a nice payday. (Altman was always short of money.) It was to be a book about the work, not the life. They had long sessions of talk and smoking. They became friends, and Zuckoff succumbed to comradeship with an old man who was frail but persevering. Altman’s great kindness to Zuckoff was in dying, for that took away any chance of chagrin and dismay in an abused author. But Zuckoff was persuaded by Altman’s loyal and long-suffering third wife, Kathryn, and by opportunity, to do a book about the life, too--and to do it as an oral biography, adapting to the director’s habit of a circular form and letting everyone have his or her say, even if it comes down to Faye Dunaway’s official kiss-off--"I don’t have anything to say about Mr Altman. I never worked with him. I don’t have any time to give you on the subject"--instead of deep dish on the temperature of their implausible affair.
Zuckoff is a good interviewer and a better editor of the results. But his circle of contacts is smaller than McGilligan’s, and it does not carry the bitterness of McGilligan’s discovery: that the self-serving haze of forgetfulness in Altman’s life often demanded a painstaking readiness to track down the small people who could give the lie to the great man’s lofty and sentimental version of things. The McGilligan book is finally more revealing, because its author was never taken in by Altman or smothered in his embrace.
In the end there is room for both books, because Altman’s best films and his rather chilly elegance have entered our imaginary existence. Very few directors have been so good at detecting the lonely people in the crowd. Beatty’s John McCabe seems like the cock of his jaunty walk, yet he yarns away to himself to prove he exists; Gould’s Philip Marlowe is so twisted out of shape by old codes of honor that he may have his best conversations with his cat. Altman left traps in the ground around himself: no major director made so many awful films. But if some director had made only M.A.S.H., McCabe & Mrs. Miller, The Long Goodbye, 3 Women, and Short Cuts, there would be no doubt about his ultimate importance. Yes, he was a trickster and a tricky bastard, a bit of a double-cross. But do not forget that he introduced those lifelike realities at the very moment when innocent and foolish film followers were ready to believe that directors must be heroes, saints, or Santa Claus. We owe him plenty.

SAN FRANCISCO — U.S. tech firms that don't adequately warn users in Europe how their information is going to be used could face fines in the billions of dollars under a new European privacy protection directive expected to be agreed upon Tuesday.
The new privacy directive requires tech companies clearly inform users what information about them is being collected and how it will be used, and get their consent to that use. It has been in the works for several years and will replace a patchwork of laws from the 1990s.
“A lot of the language in this regulation has been sharpened in response to U.S. companies walking very close to the line as far as complying with E.U. data protection regulations,” said Danny O’Brien, the international director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a San Francisco-based cyber rights group.
The new directive will also give E.U. residents the legal right to require companies to correct any information about them that is outdated or incorrect.
It also raises the age of data consent to 16. Users younger than that will be required to get parental permission to share information about themselves with companies, said O’Brien. Previously the age of consent was 13.
Users also will have the right to have their information deleted. For example, if they choose to delete their Facebook account, Facebook would have to also delete all the information it had collected about them, said O’Brien.
U.S. tech companies have fought against recent EU efforts that make it harder to, for instance, transfer data between European countries and the U.S.. Business lobbying groups warn costs of doing business in Europe will rise, leading to fewer services.
But this new directive will benefit them on one front: It's a single framework rather than separate and sometimes slightly different rules in each of the E.U.'s 28 member countries, which had been a major headache for firms doing business across Europe.
A sticking point of recent discussion has been the penalties companies would pay if they were found to not be in compliance with E.U. requirements.
The European Commission proposed 2% of a company’s global revenue as a fine, while the European Parliament has asked for 5%.
Robert Cattanach, a partner at the international law firm Dorsey & Whitney and expert on cybersecurity and privacy, says 4% seems likely.
“If you’re Google or Facebook, that’s a staggering amount of money,” he said.
For example, the Google parent company Alphabet had gross revenue of $66 billion in 2014. Four percent of that would be $2.6 billion. Facebook, with $12.47 billion in revenue, could face fines of $498 million.
“The EU now has a lot of extra weaponry to punish companies who it believes aren’t complying with its privacy rules,” said O’Brien.
Facebook cannot comment on the directive until the language is final, the company said.
For privacy rights activists, this isn't a question of European privacy standards being too stringent, but of the United States being behind the times.
“Threats to online privacy are on the rise — cyber attacks, data breaches, identity theft, and secretive profiling of Internet users,” said Marc Rotenberg, president of the Electronic Privacy Information Center in Washington D.C.
“Unfortunately, the United States is still caught in the last century, with privacy policies that provide no real protections to Internet users. The U.S. will need to update privacy laws to safeguard U.S. consumers and maintain trade relations with Europe,” he said.
The EU directive becomes effective two days after all 28 member states sign off on it. It is expected to come into force at the beginning of 2016. Companies then have two years to come into compliance, said O’Brien.

At the molecular and cellular levels, mechanisms that have been implicated in the normal process of memory formation are increasingly being identified as potential contributors to the persistence of the addicted state. To investigate the effect of cocaine self-administration on synaptic plasticity, rats were allowed to self-administer 0.5 mg/kg/infusion cocaine or 0.9% NaCl during 90 min sessions for 15 consecutive days. These cocaine and saline self-administration subjects were then restricted to their home cages for 3, 30, or 100 days (3, 30, and 100 day cocaine/saline withdrawal groups) before the assessment of the induction and reversal of long-term potentiation (LTP) in the CA1 region of hippocampal slices. The magnitude of LTP was increased in the 3-day cocaine withdrawal group as compared with the 3-day saline withdrawal group, but this effect was short lived, as the 30-day cocaine and saline withdrawal groups exhibited similar LTP magnitudes. Interestingly, LTP was significantly decreased in the 100-day cocaine withdrawal group compared with the 100-day saline withdrawal group. These results support the hypothesis that the capacity for LTP is persistently altered after withdrawal from exposure to an addictive substance.

For dust control, I’ve been using an old shop vac and Dust Deputy. It worked well enough, but then the vacuum died spectacularly. It stopped running with a column of thick smoke and then melted down. Rather than abusing another shop vacuum, I started looking for a dust collector.
I opted for the 2 HP model from Harbor Freight. It’s very popular and a good price that’s even better with a 20% off coupon. I also got the larger Super Dust Deputy since the little bucket version worked well for me. Using the conical cyclone, debris enters, swirls around, and drops to a collector rather than going through the blower motor into a collection bag. The primary purpose is to prevent solid chips/chunks, etc from hitting the motor’s impeller and causing damage. But it’s also extremely efficient at capturing anything that gets sucked up.
I’m not using the bagging system with Harbor Freight Kit. I’m simply venting outside. The advantage here is that only the finest dust will escape the Dust Deputy, but this fine dust is the most problematic. It’s the most dangerous to inhale, and it’s also the most difficult to filter. So, rather than building an expensive filtering system, I’m just going to just exhaust it outdoors. Once it snows, I’ll be able to see how much dust is being vented and whether I need to rethink it. So far, it’s working great.
The other advantages of this setup are it’s a small footprint. It’s vertical at less than 2-foot by 2-foot. The other advantage is there’s no filter to restrict airflow, so it should help increase power or at least help counter the restriction from the cyclone.
I opted to go for the newer 4-inch Super Dust Deputy. I was hesitant to buy a smaller unit than the larger cyclone with 5-inch connections. I was concerned if it would hurt power and not be as efficient. So far, it seems perfectly fine. It seems Oneida designed this version of the Super Cyclone for the popular Harbor Freight and similarly sized dust collectors. This is a turn-key system that includes a 15-gallon drum. The cyclone fits directly on the drum and doesn’t require a lid or cutout. It also includes a foam gasket to get a tight seal. The output is 4″, which is the typical for small to medium shop dust collection. It also includes a fitting/adapter out of the top for 4″.
For my setup, I made a wall mount with 2x4s. I then just set then fan blower so the input is facing the ground. I didn’t mount the blower anywhere. It’s heavy and the blower input sticks out so will keep it from sliding off. Once mounted, I used the Harbor Freight duct adapter and 5″ output hose. I cut a hole in the wall, installed a 5″ wall duct baffle, and connected it all with clamps. I also cut a short length of the 5″ hose and connected that to the lower input with a clamp. Then used a 4″ reducer. Then I attached a length of 4″ hose to the Super Dust Deputy. Out of the Harbor Freight kit, I’m just using the blower, duct adapter, and hose.
This gives me a straight line for airflow with only a minimal curve on the output. I mounted the lower at a height that was convenient for me to reach the switch. I thought about sitting the drum on a cart for convienent emptying and maybe steal a little extra shop storage space but didn’t I don’t have a clear path to wheel out the drum anyway. I also didn’t want to directly connect the blower to the Super Dust Buddy because I thought it might make it more difficult to empty the drum. I’m thinking about using some bungee cords to hold the Super Dust Buddy when emptying, but it seems light enough that the hose clamps can support it hanging.
Lastly, I need to work on connections. I intend to simply move the 4″ hose to machine to machine. My shop is small and only the table saw is stationary, so I don’t have fixed stations for duct work.

This week, Americans will celebrate the Declaration of Independence and recognize their nation’s growth from a rebellious colony to a fifty-state global superpower. But in five of these fifty states, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness were curtailed for many people this week as their state governments enacted new restrictions on abortion access.
As Rachel Maddow noted on Monday night, there is little political action to speak of in Washington, D.C., at the moment. Right now, the action is in the states. And if you’re in a red state, it’s abortion restriction time.
In Alabama, Indiana, Kansas, Mississippi, and South Dakota, states in which it was already quite difficult to obtain an abortion, it just got even harder. Like Ohio, which last Sunday implemented a handful of abortion restrictions, most of these five states have erected several different kinds of roadblocks between constitutionally protected healthcare and the citizens who want to access it.
In Kansas, for example, a long-time reproductive rights battleground, state legislators have attacked the supply-side of abortion: the doctors who provide them. Kansas doctors are now banned from participating in sex education in public schools, are legally required to inform their patients seeking abortions that after 20 weeks in the womb, fetuses can feel pain, and that “the abortion will terminate the life of a whole, separate, unique, living human being.”
And even though the National Cancer Institute insists that no such link exists, doctors are now legally required to inform their patients of the link between abortion and breast cancer. Starting next year, the same bill, HB 2253, will begin blocking tax breaks for those clinics that allow patients to deduct abortion expenses from their tax returns. In Indiana and Alabama, too, doctors who provide abortions at clinics are under fire, facing strict new regulations that are designed to be impossible to adhere to, so that the clinics simply cannot stay open.
Indiana, Mississippi, and Alabama–like Michigan before them–have banned the use of telemedicine to prescribe RU 486, the abortion pill. This restriction hits hardest those patients in isolated or rural areas, far from doctors and clinics. RU 486 is used to end a pregnancy early on. In making it harder for those people to obtain abortions earlier in their pregnancies, those states are forcing them to resort to surgical abortions, which are costlier and harder to obtain.
South Dakota has taken a different route, erecting obstacles for the patient, rather than the doctor. Patients must now wait for 72 hours after seeing a doctor before undergoing a procedure–and weekends don’t count. South Dakota has two abortion providers, meaning that 76% of South Dakota women live in a county without a provider. The waiting period means patients must take even more time off work than they already would, arrange for accommodation near the provider, and for childcare for any children they already have. For many people, this represents an insurmountable financial and logistical barrier. So, though abortion is legal, it’s inaccessible by most measures.
In Texas, if Gov. Rick Perry gets his way, the second special session he called will result in the passage of an omnibus abortion bill that looks a lot like the bills that are taking effect in these five states. If that happens, all but 5 of 42 abortion clinics in Texas will be shut down. Texas will also impose restrictions on the use of RU 486, and will require doctors who perform abortions to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital. Ohio has also enacted this last requirement, in tandem with an amendment that makes it incredibly hard for doctors to obtain those privileges.
Finally, passage of the Texas bill will mean a 20-week abortion ban. This means that if you live in Texas and you discover after 20 weeks that your pregnancy is developing in a way that means your baby will not be able breathe on its own , you will be forced to carry that pregnancy to term, to give birth to a baby that cannot survive outside the womb. If you live in a rural area in Texas and discover that you are eight weeks pregnant, the new restrictions on RU 486 might mean that you have to have a surgical abortion, which is more expensive. If it takes you more than twelve weeks to save up for that abortion, too bad: it’s too late.
For the citizens of five states in our union–more, if you count Texas and Ohio–the government can coerce, compel, cajole, and outright force a person to give birth against her will. Whether it’s by making it harder for doctors to do their jobs, by cutting off a crucial medical lifeline between isolated women and their physicians, or by making abortion prohibitively expensive, that’s what these new laws do.
Lawmakers who voted for or signed these laws should be asked: if you think the government should be able to force an American citizen to give birth against her will, what exactly are you celebrating this weekend? | positive |

(not satire – it’s the UK today!)
A woman was arrested today after posting a photograph on Twitter of chancellor George Osborne at her flat when she worked as a madame at an escort agency.
Natalie Rowe posted this photo on Twitter just two days ago:
Then today Natalie was arrested by the police for “abusive behaviour”:
Natalie’s home was also searched last year by police after she tried to publish her memoirs in which she mentions Osborne took cocaine and used her services as a dominatrix called Miss Whiplash:
Cops raid home of ex-vice madam about to tell all on wild parties involving top Tories
Of course this could all be coincidence.
Or perhaps more proof – if any more were needed – that our police are being used to protect politicians’ reputations rather than catching criminals?
.
UPDATE: Natalie has posted another photo of Osborne – this time off his head dancing to Spandau Ballet apparently:
Dominatrix posts new photo of George Osborne dancing to Spandau Ballet in her flat
.
Please share. Don’t let our politicians get away with this. Thanks:

In DW's coverage of COP23 in Bonn, we asked whether the conference was worth the effort. We looked behind the scenes, among other things at lobbying. And we even called it a circus.
This year's United Nations climate summit — which took place literally in our backyard here in Bonn, Germany — was sprawling physically, far-ranging topically, and, especially for the public, hard to get a handle on.
Technically, these two weeks were all about the "rule book": if the Paris Agreement is the climate constitution, then the rule book represents the laws and regulations that will implement it.
But the end result, the goal of the Paris Agreement, is to limit the Earth's temperature rise to a maximum of 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit). So, will we make it?
Significant steps were made toward this end — in the official talks, as much as on the sidelines. Discussion, both in the negotiating rooms and outside, kept returning to a few key points.
Preventing 2 degrees
Sonya Angelica Diehn is DW's Environment Team Leader
One is ambition — that is, how greenhouse gas emission cuts can be made more deeply and more quickly.
Climate experts keep reminding us: There's only a window of about a decade left for the world's nations to decarbonize their economies, before we've blown our carbon budget and the limit of a 1.5 degree Celsius temperature increase — or even 2 degrees — will no longer be possible.
For island-state host Fiji and many developing nations hard-hit by climate change, the lower limit of 1.5 degrees Celcius remained the main goal.
Discussion centered particularly on how to increase ambition before 2020, when the Kyoto Protocol expires and the Paris Agreement is set to be implemented.
Key to this was the so-called Talanoa Dialogue. And a significant step here is that United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres was tasked with bringing ambition forward before COP24 in Poland next year.
Before COP21 in Paris, Ban Ki-Moon similarly achieved success — so signs are good.
The hole in committed greenhouse gas reductions is also known as the emissions gap
Rounding up the money
The second keyword is finance. If the world's nations need to quickly decarbonize, who will pay for this?
There's broad consensus that since the wealth of industrialized countries is based on the historical burning of fossil fuels, they're responsible for not only decarbonizing their own economies but also for helping out the rest of the world.
Before COP23, only $10 billion had been pledged to the Green Climate Fund, which is used for "adaptation and mitigation" — to pay for both managing the impacts of climate change, and for transforming energy systems and otherwise reducing emissions.
Starting in 2020, industrial nations aim to spend $100 billion (€85 billion) a year for climate action in poorer countries.
But the "finance gap" is a looming threat to implementing the Paris Agreement. At COP23, developing nations sought commitments on climate finance.
So it is a significant development that in Bonn, financiers have now named a sum of $60 billion. (Although nongovernmental groups remain skeptical of that figure, and say that really, only $20 billion have been committed.)
In an eleventh-hour compromise, industrialized countries conceded that the Adaptation Fund from the Kyoto Protocol, worth about $330 million, could become a part of the Paris Agreement.
This came, however, in exchange for not including contentious "loss and damage" as part of the agreement. That's compensation for the irreparable, most destructive impacts of climate change, which developing countries had sought.
Climate finance: It's about the money needed to prevent global warming of more than two degrees
Sending a signal on fossil fuels
Coal was in special focus at the 23rd climate summit in Bonn.
On the Saturday before the summit started, up to 25,000 people marched in Bonn, demanding an end to the use of coal — particularly in Germany, where it makes up almost half of the energy mix.
Activists also briefly shut down the Hambach coal mine , only 50 kilometers (31 miles) away from Bonn, to send a signal. Brown coal from Hambach makes up the single largest CO2 emissions source in Europe.
In her speech at COP23, German Chancellor Angela Merkel acknowledged the need for a coal exit — even though Germany is in a tricky situation on that since there's still no government. Coalition talks following the federal elections in September have been going on for weeks.
At the climate conference, I kept hearing people say: Enough vague goals, we need concrete steps.
One such concrete step is the pledge of 20 nations toward a phase-out of coal, the dirtiest fossil fuel. Even though most of these countries have low coal use, this is the correct signal: Coal is the fuel of the past, renewables are the future.
Coal: dirty, unhealthy — and hopefully a thing of the past soon
Climate action
Last but not least, this climate summit saw an unprecedented upswelling on the part of local and regional governments, along with businesses, to bring climate action forward.
Although the official United States delegation was minimal — and clung to coal — the unofficial US delegation came through with a resounding "we are still in."
Around the world, mayors, governors and businesses are responding to pressure from civil society to do their part in keeping the world habitable.
The hope is that 2018 can be the year of climate action; the year we turn off the path of climate catastrophe.
For this, we're being reminded that we can only tackle climate change by working as communities — and by changing our own behavior.
Although we're edging closer to the cliff, the good news is: It's still not too late.

Weapon Changes
Heavy Machine Gun (Both Clan and Inner Sphere):
1 ton ammo increased to 1250 (from 1000)
0.5 ton ammo increased to 625 (from 500)
'Mech Quirk changes
TNS-4P:
Mobility increased to similar levels of other higher mobility TNS variants.
Design notes: Out of the Thanatos line, the 4P stood out as under-performing compared to other variants. We will be bringing its mobility up to match similar Thanatos variants.
NSR-9S:
UAC / 20 HSL +1 quirk added.
Kit Fox:
Universal Range +5% Quirk added to the following torso OmniPods:
KFX-C Left Torso
KFX-C Right Torso
KFX-D Left Torso
KFX-D Right Torso
KFX-Prime Left Torso
KFX-Prime Right Torso
Design notes: We want to provide the lesser used OmniPods with some more potent options at customizing your OmniMechs. As well as play into the high accuracy at long ranges niche the 'Mech is known for in the lore when combined with a number of set of 8 quirks.
HGN-IIC-A
Clan ER PPC HSL +1
SNV-BR
UAC/20 HSL +1 quirk added
Bolt-On and Weapon Door shadows have been removed due to these shadows not animating along with the 'Mech.
The Solaris Watch List is now the top element in the Solaris Overview panel and it is set to open by default.
Fixed an art issue where the Summoner 'Mech's hip geometry were asymmetrical.
Fixed an art issue where the Kintaro 'Mech's start-up animation was too quick, causing issues in the end of the animation.
Scouting mode's Intel Collected displayed on the in-game HUD no longer resets to 0 when a player quits and re-joins the match.
'Mechs no longer get stuck between a building and rail tracks in cell D4 of Solaris City.
'Mechs no longer get stuck between a building and an elevated platform in cell D7 of Solaris City.
Added the proper missing quirk changes to the Bushwacker BSW-HR 'Mech.
Patch Files (Direct Download)
To make the patching process easier for players with limited download caps, we'll be providing direct download links for the patch file(s) that comprise this patch. This will allow you to download the patch file(s) elsewhere, for manual injection into the MWO patcher through a Patch Cache folder.
Aside from allowing you to download the patch file(s) elsewhere, on another connection, there are no additional benefits to performing the patch this way; the patching process itself will be the same.
This direct patch download process will only work for players running the standalone client. It does not apply to players running MWO through Steam.
Patch File(s):
How to use these patch files
• Download the above file(s)
• For sake of ease we recommend creating a dedicated folder for the patch file(s), such as 'MWO Patch Cache'
• You do not need to unzip or unpack the patch file(s)
• Launch the MWO Portal
• Select the three horizontal lines in the top left of the Portal Window
• Choose the 'Specify Patch File Cache' option
• In the field that appears, paste or enter the location in which you saved the patch file(s) and hit OK
• For example, C:\Users\<username>\Documents\MWO Patch Cache
• Click the blue Patch button
• The launcher will now check the Patch Cache folder you defined. If it locates the required patch files, it will unpack and use those files to apply the patch.
• Once the patch is complete, launch the game | positive |
Friction blisters are a common sequela of many athletic activities. Their significance can range from minor annoyance to major performance disruptions. The latter is particularly true in baseball pitchers, who sustain repeated trauma between the baseball seams and the fingers of the pitching hand, predominately at the tips of the index and long fingers. Since 2010, 6 Major League Baseball (MLB) players accounted for 7 stints on the disabled list (DL) due to blisters. These injuries resulted in a total of 151 days spent on the DL. Since 2012, 8 minor league players spent time on the DL due to blisters. Moreover, there have been several documented and publicized instances of professional baseball pitchers suffering blisters that did not require placement on the DL but did result in injury time and missed starts. The purpose of this article is to review the etiology and pathophysiology of friction blisters with particular reference to baseball pitchers; provide an overview of past and current prevention methods; and discuss our experience in treating friction blisters in MLB pitchers. | positive |

Interesting. I was solo though, so it's not -only- related to host migrations. I remember that one of the new small units (jester) was stuck in a wall in a walking animation. Maybe it was the source of my bug. I killed it though and nothing was solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Dousei Posted November 15, 2016 Dousei PC Member 48 Share Posted November 15, 2016 I thought so too. So I spent a good 10 minutes retracing my steps.

Carey acknowledges that generating income from fans who are willing to pay for a premium service while also keeping sponsors happy by reaching the widest possible audience via free-to-air will be challenging.
F1 is planning to offer its own premium 'over the top' or OTT digital service, which promises to be very lucrative.
“In terms of the television arena that we deal with, I guess the way to describe it is that there are three or even four potential arenas that we are engaged with,” said Carey.
“Traditional free [to air], pay, digital and then our own probably more direct 'over the top' product. To some degree what you have is conflicting goals across them.
"Probably the economic premium paid gets higher as you go up the ladder, but the reach gets less.
“For us the goal is to maximise long-term growth, not to find a short-term pop. So I think we’re trying to balance what is the right mix of reach and direct economic value.
"Clearly there are impacts on other partners we have – for sponsors the fan engagement is obviously very important.
“So if you’re energising the sport I think we want to make sure we continue to position it for long-term growth that finds a balance between that reach and those economics as opposed to just where you can get the biggest buck?”
Digital transition won't be instant
Carey is adamant that digital is the future, although it will not be a fast transition: “It’s more and more heading to various forms of digital platforms.
"I don’t think it will happen as fast as some people think – because some habits die hard, and there is a value in volume and choice.
“I think on the programming side there’s still value in reach. I think directionally it’s going there, but it will take time.
"I think there’s no question that there will be a lot more ways that content will continue to be offered to consumers that I think will benefit consumers on both ends of that.” | positive |
Why Flash Security still matters?
Flash is still an active threat. In 2017, I reported Flash vulnerabilities to Facebook, Youtube, WordPress, Yahoo, Paypal and Stripe. Over the last 3 years, I reported more than 50 Flash vulnerabilities to Bug Bounty programs, earning more than 80k $ in rewards. And there are many more I didn’t have the time to report or that weren’t fixed after I reported it.
In addition, Flash has been replaced by new javascript/html5 features. These features introduce complexity and new kind of vulnerabilities like bad CORS implementation, DOM XSSes triggered by postMessage or XHR requests, active mixed content… Learning from Flash mistakes can help design and implement more secure javascript applications. The new Youtube html5 Api is mostly a porting of the Youtube Flash Api to javascript, making it interesting to study. In fact, I was able to find XSSes in the Youtube html5 Api using my knowledge of the Flash Api.
I’ll explain some advanced Flash vulnerabilities I found in Youtube Flash Api and in the process I will draw a parallel with html/javascript security. This is quite technical so feel free to comment or to tweet me (@opnsec) if something is not clear or if you want to add something. You can also read more about Flash security model here.
Reverse engineering Youtube Flash Api
Youtube Flash Api allows developers to embed a Youtube video in an external website.
Here is the workflow of the Api:
The entry point, Youtube Wrapper, is a Flash file located at youtube.com/v/[VIDEO_ID], it is just a wrapper between the HTML page and the Main App.
The Main Application is a large flash file of about 100k LoC and is located in a sandboxed domain s.ytimg.com.
The Modules handle optional functions like subtitles or advertisements. They are not stand-alone Flash files and can only be loaded by the Main App.
In addition there is a Flash to Javascript Api that allows the html page to send commands to the Youtube Api like play(), pause(), etc… Flash files will also perform “ajax style” cross-domain requests to load configuration files and video data.
I. User info leakage
Let’s start with a simple vulnerability. Here is a simplified version of Youtube Wrapper code in Flash ActionScript3 (AS3) :
public class YoutubeWrapper extends Sprite{ private var user_name = "The Victim";
private var user_picture = "https://googleusercontent.com/.../victim_photo.jpg";
private var appLoader = new Loader(); public function YoutubeWrapper(){
// allow external javascript/Flash files to access its public properties
Security.allowDomain("*");
// load the Main App
this.appLoader .load(new URLRequest("https://s.ytimg.com/.../watch_as3.swf");
// add as child of display container
this.addChild(this.appLoader );
// loaderInfo.sharedEvents Api
this.loader.contentLoaderInfo.sharedEvents
.addEventListener("REQUEST_USERINFO", this.onRequestUserinfo);
}
private function onRequestUserinfo(event:Event){
// write the user info into the event.data property
// which is accessible to the sharedEvents caller
event.data.user_name = this.user_name;
event.data.user_image = this.user_image;
}
}
Youtube Wrapper is generated on the fly and its property “user_name” contains the Google user name (if he is connected to Google). The property “user_picture” contains the link to the user profile picture. In this bug, the attacker will steal these values.
Youtube Wrapper can be loaded from the developer own Flash file (let’s call it Evil Wrapper). In that case, they both executes in a different Flash security sandbox.
Loading an external Flash file in Flash is a little bit similar to loading an <iframe> in html. If the iframe is from a different origin than its parent, they cannot access each other properties due to the Same-Origin Policy (SOP)
Youtube Wrapper contains the code Security.allowDomain(“*”) to allow javascript on the hosting webpage to send commands to the Flash app like play(), pause(),etc… This also means that Evil Wrapper can access any public property of Youtube Wrapper as if it was in the same Security sandbox. However it cannot access private properties.
The user_name property is private so Evil Wrapper cannot access it.
Flash also provides an Api for communication between a Loader and a loaded file using loaderInfo.sharedEvents. Youtube Wrapper uses this api to communicate with the Main App. When the Main App dispatches an event to the sharedEvents Api, the Youtube Wrapper receives the event and send back the user info using the event.data property.
loaderInfo.sharedEvents is not only accessible to the loader and the loaded files, but also to any Flash file that has a reference to this loaderInfo object.
This is similar to the javascript postMessage Api which allows communication between cross-domain iframes. The postMessage Api is accessible not only to the iframe and its parent but also to any other window that has a reference to the iframe or the parent. Any arbitrary domain can access these references using window.open and window.frames, which are not restricted by the SOP.
If Evil loader can access this particular loaderInfo object it will be able to send an event to the Youtube Wrapper and steal the user info.
loaderInfo is a property of appLoader which is a private property of the Youtube Wrapper, so Evil Wrapper cannot access it.
However, when using a Loader, if you want to display the loaded file, you have to add it as a child of the Display Container. This is usually done using
this.addChild(this.loader); and this is exactly what the Youtube Wrapper does.
The thing is that the Youtube Wrapper also have a built-in public method getChildAt() that will return the children of the Youtube Wrapper. This means that Evil Wrapper can call YoutubeWrapper.getChildAt(0) which will return the loader object, bypassing the privacy of the loader property.
Setting a property as “private” is called encapsulation. However, only the reference is private, not the object the reference points to.
From there Evil Wrapper can access YoutubeWrapper.getChildAt(0).loaderInfo.sharedEvents which is the interface between Youtube Wrapper and the Main App. Evil Wrapper can send an event to the Youtube Wrapper, the Youtube Wrapper will provide the user info in the event.data property and Evil Wrapper can then read the event.data value.
Proof of Concept :
Evil Wrapper code was like this
var loader = new Loader();
// Load the Youtube Wrapper
loader.load(new URLRequest("https://www.youtube.com/v/[VIDEO_ID]"));
var youtubeWrapper = loader.content;
// Access the Youtube Wrapper appLoader object
var appLoader = youtubeWrapper.getChildAt(0);
// Access the loaderInfo.sharedEvents of appLoader
var LeakingSharedEvents = appLoader.contentLoaderInfo.sharedEvents; // Prepare the event to send to Youtube Wrapper
var leakEvent = new Event("Request_username");
leakEvent.data = new Object();
// Send the leakEvent to the LeakingSharedEvents
LeakingSharedEvents.dispatchEvent(leakEvent); // The username is now accessible in the event.data property
trace(leakEvent.data.user_name);
trace(leakEvent.data.user_picture);
POC workflow :
Attack scenario:
Prerequisite: The victim is logged in Google and have Flash player
(1) The victim visits the attacker webpage evil.com/evil.html which contains a Flash object evil.com/evil.swf
(2) evil.swf loads Youtube wrapper (https://www.youtube.com/v/[VIDEO_ID]) and retrieves the user Google username (4-5-6)
evil.com now knows the username of it’s visitors. In addition, as the profile picture link is unique, it is possible to uniquely identify the user’s Google account.
Impact:
Any website could use this to know the identity of it’s users, if they are connected to Google. Imagine how you would feel if you visit a random website and this website displays your name and your picture!
Mitigation:
To resolve this issue, Youtube Wrapper stopped writing the user info in the event.data property and instead sends it directly to the Main App. That way even if Evil Wrapper sends an event to Youtube Wrapper, it wouldn’t receive the user info as it would be directly sent to the Main App.
Timeline:
08/27/2015 – reported to Google VRP
09/09/2015 – issue fixed and reward
This was a simple bug and I hope it helps you understand the basic challenges here. You can read about another bug where we actually execute arbitrary Flash code in youtube.com in Part 2.

In a recent audio commentary, anti-LGBTQ activist Linda Harvey of Mission America bizarrely claimed that recent moves to offer a gender-neutral option on driver’s licenses represents a threat to national security.
“People thumbing their noses in the face of our gracious creator God and some American officials are giving legitimacy to this serious confusion?” she asked rhetorically. “We are in such great trouble if we don’t stand up against this. Shouldn’t this be a matter for Homeland Security? I mean, think about the security of our nation’s capital. Now, there’s one more way for the person with destructive intentions to evade detection and capture. It’s not just a matter of morality any longer; the sexual anarchy agenda is becoming a matter of law and order.”
“Pray for a turnaround, friends,” Harvey beseeched her listeners, “and let’s make sure, wherever we can, we elect officials who won’t go along with such extremist nonsense.” | positive |

Story highlights New research shows highly neurotic people often defy their colleagues' low expectations of them
Neurotic personality is an anxiety of not wanting to disappoint our peers
Teammates tend to have high expectations of extroverts but are often disappointed
Human resources specialists say companies need to hire the right mix of personalities
Give your anxious, negative colleagues a chance, and they just might surprise you.
Two new studies have found that highly neurotic people, while initially not inspiring confidence, often defy expectations among teammates. On the flip side, the extroverts in the office, usually seen as strong leaders among peers, tend to disappoint.
"Our intuition about the kind of people who make good teammates, which are often based on their personalities, are actually wrong," said Corinne Bendersky, an associate professor at UCLA's Anderson School of Management, who led both of the new studies.
In her research, published in the "Academy of Management Journal" this month, Bendersky and her co-researcher, Neha Shah of Rutgers University, compared MBA team members' ratings of each other before and after weeks of collaboration.
The second study was similar, but researchers gauged perceptions by providing subjects with personality profiles of made-up colleagues.
Before working together, participants had bad impressions of their neurotic colleagues, predicting they would have low contribution and low status within the group.
"Our intuition about anxious, neurotic employees and colleagues is that their volatility and negativity is going to make them a drag on the team," said Bendersky.
"What we don't appreciate is that an aspect of that neurotic personality is really an anxiety of not wanting to disappoint our peers and our colleagues. Neurotics can actually be motivated to work really hard especially in collaborative situations."
At the beginning of the study those with extroverted personalities were given high status ratings by others. Collaborators thought that their enthusiasm and energy was going to be a boon for the team, Bendersky said, and that they would be positive contributors.
But according to Bendersky extroverts tend to be less receptive to other people's input, which can make them more difficult to work with. In the studies, their contributions were less impressive than expected.
"The core of the extrovert's personality is really wanting to be the center of attention," said Bendersky. "So if there's a lot of self-presentation that is well received, it creates a positive first impression. But that drive to be the center of attention can actually be fairly disruptive in collaborative situations."
Regardless of the finding that neurotics work better in teams, they are still considered to be at a disadvantage in the workplace overall.
"Neurotics tend to be unstable, they're insecure, they worry a lot, they're moody -- all these are difficult to deal with," said Adrian Furnham, a psychology professor at the University College London. He believes that while neuroticism makes people more sensitive to the reactions of other people, "by and large it's not good news. High neuroticism is not associated with success in the workplace."
Furnham does not think highly extroverted people make for the best employees either. Rather moderate outgoingness is ideal. "If you are very extroverted, you tend to be possibly attention seeking, domineering, and so that's not such a good thing."
But people who are high on the neuroticism scale need not despair; they just need to find the right job.
Spencer Lord, a human resources specialist with the Britain-based firm Organic HR, says highly neurotic people are often strong in roles that require attention to detail, like positions in finance or compliance.
"They are more predisposed to worry about the consequences of mistakes and therefore put more effort into avoiding them," he said. "Due to their natural caution, they can also be very effective in assessing risk."
While the stereotypical job for more neurotic people is technical, back-office work, Lord believes that the best leadership groups often include someone highly neurotic in the mix. On one board of directors he works with, the most important person, the financial director, has just such a personality.
"Her risk aversion, need for precision and near-obsessive attention to detail don't make her the most popular member of the leadership team at times -- she often shoots down ideas from her fellow directors -- but she is utterly indispensable," said Lord.
Extroverts are good at building relationships and getting themselves noticed, but they need to be able to show they have a good base of other skills, too, or risk being thought of as "style over substance."
When it comes to hiring, Lord believes it is important that companies think about how candidates' personalities may help them fit into the organization or on teams.
"They can have all of the skills, qualifications and experience in the world," he says, "but if they cannot gel with your people, then the hire will not be successful." | positive |
Martin Laurendeau steps down
Tennis Canada announced on Thursday that Frank Dancevic has been named captain of the Canadian Davis Cup team, replacing Martin Laurendeau who has stepped down in order to dedicate his time to coaching Denis Shapovalov.
Dancevic made his Davis Cup debut as a player in 2002. Since then, he has posted a record of 18 wins and 22 loses in 26 appearances with the team. A native of Niagara Falls, Ontario, and current resident of La Prairie, Quebec, Dancevic played one of the best matches of his career against Spain’s Marcel Granollers, then ranked 34th in the world, defeating him by a score of 6-1, 6-2, 6-2 in the World Group first round encounter in 2013. It was that year that Canada reached the semi-finals, the best result in the nation’s Davis Cup history.
Dancevic, who will continue his career as a player — he is currently ranked world no. 361 in the ATP rankings, after having reached a career-high ranking of no. 65 in 2007 —, said he was honored by this opportunity provided to him by Tennis Canada.
“These are definitely big shoes to fill, as Martin has been an outstanding captain for our team. No one will be able to replace him,” stated Dancevic. “It is an honor for me to take on this role as the Davis Cup has always been a special and important event for me. I know all the players well, which will be an asset for me moving forward. It is certainly a great challenge, but I have tremendous confidence in this team and I am looking forward to our next tie in February.”
“Frank has played a significant role in the success of the team for almost two decades. He has seen this team evolve over time,” explained Louis Borfiga. “The players and Tennis Canada have full confidence in his ability to not only keep this team in the World Group, but to aim even higher in the coming years.”
Laurendeau has been the team captain since 2004, in addition to occupying the role of team coach for 10 years and defending the Canadian flag as a player from 1986 to 1993. Under his leadership, Canada has been present in the World Group since 2012 and reached the Davis Cup semi-finals in 2013.
“After 15 years as captain, I have decided to step away from Davis Cup. It has been the highest honor to represent my country in all of the different roles that I have held over the last 34 years,” stated Laurendeau. “Davis Cup is very intense and energy consuming. Combining the captaincy and full-time coaching on the ATP Tour made for a relentlessly busy calendar. Thus, I have decided to step down and provide someone else with the opportunity to lead our Canadian team. Frank is one of Canada’s most experienced Davis Cup players, which will certainly serve him well in his new role. I am delighted to hand the torch to a former pupil, especially to one with whom I have shared many memories on the court. I wish all the best to Frank and the team. I will continue to follow Davis Cup very closely!”
“Martin’s professionalism, leadership and integrity have helped this team succeed in recent years. He evolved with the team and was able to adjust according to the challenges that presented themselves,” said Borfiga. “He will be missed, but his contribution to Canadian tennis has not ended.”
Canada’s Davis Cup team will face Croatia in the World Group first round from February 2 to 4, 2018. | positive |
Winamp (motto: It really whips the llama’s ass!) is a media player that works across a variety of platforms and has been downloaded by millions of users over the years. It is popular because of the wide variety of file types that it can read and for its customizable skinning and visualization options.
In addition to the other benefits of this platform, a possibly unforeseen positive is the fact that it encouraged 16-year-old Bobby M to learn about 3D printing and to create his first project.
“The idea to make a Threekeyboard arose while I was watching a Linus Tech Tips video and he showcased his own Threekeyboard. I was really fascinated with it but at the time I’d had my 3d printer for only a few weeks,” Bobby M told us. “I went on Techkeys.us and saw that to order the completed keyboard with a metal case and switches already soldered was about $40 and I did not want to spend that kind of money. Instead, I ordered the PCB even though at the time I had no soldering experience or any sort of experience engineering things. However, I was excited to start my mechanical keyboard engineering experience.”
With the wizardry and quick mastery of technology that makes people my age want to start using words like ‘whippersnapper’ and ‘young,’ he was soon printing out his 3 key controller. The left key is for play/pause, the center key is to play the next track, and the right key is to search. In an interview with 3DPrint.com, Bobby M explained his process:
“I designed this in Autodesk Inventor 2015. The bottom piece took about 2 hours to design with an hour to print and the cover about an hour to design and 40 minutes to print. The keycaps only took about 7 minutes each. Overall the amount of parts required to make the Threekeyboard was six in total. I used ABS plastic and then spray painted the cover.”
For this creation, he used his XYZ Da Vinci 1.0, telling us: “The current 3d printer i have is a XYZ Da Vinci 1.0 hacked with Repetier Host .92.”
Showing his entrepreneurial spirit, Bobby M shared his design on Reddit, where it has been receiving helpful feedback as he works to develop his next project: a portable USB Threekeyboard to use for a media center, games or for a music player. As someone who often resorts to lifting the needle as the best way to find the next track, I can both see the appeal of such a device and be concerned that it will, of course, lead to the a whole generation of people who are younger and cooler than I am.
Maybe to ease my mind, I’ll go make myself a mix-tape.
Are you familiar with the three keyboard idea? Do you know of other youths who have used 3D printing to solve other problems? Tell us your thoughts over in the 3D Printed 3Keyboard forum thread at 3DPB.com. | positive |

Learn how to protect your investment with the best ways to clean and care for your bras to make them last! December 7, 2021 April 8, 2019 by Jill Nystul A high-quality bra that actually fits properly is worth its weight in gold. And that explains why many of us are willing to pay quite a bit for one! 🙂 On average, a good bra should last between six months and two years, as long as you clean and care for it properly! Improper washing can reduce the lifespan of your bra dramatically, so learning how to properly care for bras is one of the best ways to protect your investment! And that’s exactly what you’ll get from today’s post. From general bra care tips to specific washing instructions, this post is packed with everything you need to know to clean and care for any type of bra! How To Clean & Care For Bras Bras are a delicate item of clothing, and delicate items require gentle care! To clean high-end, lacy, and expensive bras, hand washing is nearly always the best way option. But certain basic types of bras are fine to machine-wash on a gentle cycle, like sports bras, bralettes, and bras without underwire. (You’ll find instructions for both hand-washing and machine-washing below.) No matter which washing method you choose to use, you’ll want to use cool-to-lukewarm water and a mild detergent. And it’s easy to make a mild detergent for bras and other delicates right at home! Here’s how to do it. Related: How To Fix The Most Painful Bra Problem In Seconds How To Make A Homemade Mild Detergent For Bras Ingredients: 1 cup hot water 1 teaspoon baby shampoo 1-2 drops essential oils (optional) Directions: Add the hot water, baby shampoo, and one to two drops of your favorite essential oil (if using) to a small bowl. Stir briskly until well-mixed. If using to hand wash a bra (see below), use all of the finished mixture. How To Hand Wash A Bra You’ll need: Mild detergent 2 clean, dry towels Directions: Pour a small amount of mild detergent (either homemade or store-bought) into a sink full of lukewarm water. Fasten all closures on the bra, then turn it inside-out and submerge it in the sudsy water. Let it soak for five minutes. Carefully knead the garment under the water, then soak for another five minutes. Drain the soapy water out of the sink and refill it with clean, cool water. Knead the fabric again to rinse. Drain and refill the water once more if necessary to ensure that all the detergent has been rinsed out. Drain the sink, then gently press any excess water from the fabric of the bra. (You just want to squeeze it a bit; avoid wringing it.) Lay the bra out on a clean, dry towel. Roll the towel up, then squeeze it gently to absorb the remaining moisture from the bra. Remove the bra, lay it out on a second dry towel, and allow it to air dry completely. How To Wash A Bra In A Washing Machine You’ll need: Zippered mesh laundry bag Mild detergent Clean, dry towel Directions: Place the bra in a zippered mesh laundry bag and zip it closed. Place the bag in your washing machine, and add the recommended amount of a mild detergent. Run the most gentle cycle your machine offers, then remove the bra from the laundry bag and lay it flat to dry on a dry towel. How Often Should You Wash Your Bras? Most lingerie experts say that you don’t have to wash your bras every single time you wear it. Instead, they recommend that you wash them after 2-4 wearings, allowing each bra at least one day of rest in between each wearing. (Though you may want to wash a bra more frequently if you’ve been sweating a lot or wearing perfumes or lotions.) If you follow the advice and guidelines I’ve outlined in this post, your bras will surely “support” you for a good, long time to come! 🙂 Do you have a go-to brand or style when it comes to bras?

As you know, mom has been knitting mini-mittens like crazy for the past few weeks and we thought it would be fun to have a give-away and share five of them. Mitch wrote down 3 of his favorite numbers on this piece of paper. And Maggie wrote down 2 of her favorite numbers~ The numbers that they wrote down will correspond in the order with the comments that you leave us. Please leave only one comment so it'll be fair to everyone. Good luck! We'll be back in a couple of days to announce the winners of the 5 mittens.

Mitch and I need our ice cream and luxuries! This is totally not acceptable for either one of us, dad! You need to do better than this! We have no idea who is gonna live here but it's sure not going to be either one of us! Get outta my way - I'm leavin' NOW! I do have to admit that the view is pretty nice. It's the Flintstone Barnacles! They seem to have settled in and are doin' just fine! Don't worry, Mitch. I set dad straight on THAT issue! We eat and sleep in the main house and there are no buts about it! No way will we be livin' in the Early American way! So until next time................. Love ya lots, Maggie and Mitch Posted by Molly the Airedale at 1:51 AM 30 comments: Thursday, November 24, 2011 Today Is My 5th Birthday Hi everyone. It's me, Mitch!Today is a very special day. It's Thanksgiving day for a lot of us and it's also my 5th birthday! Mom remembered that "cake" recipe that I saw in the magazine a couple of months ago? She sorta copied it using an apple as a base and she added some coffee ice cream and a dollop of yogurt. Did you notice in the first picture that I'm color coordinated in my blue pawty hat and my handsome blue collar? We're sure having a yummy pawty, aren't we, Maggie! OOPS - we lost our hats. Sorry, mom! Thank you for letting me finish yours, Maggie! You're the best sissy ever! We wish all of our friends who are celebrating a most wonderful and yummy thanksgiving. Now for the turkey and don't forget the pumpkin pie, mom! I think I like having my birthday falling on Thanksgiving day! Yer friends, Love ya lots, Mitch and Maggie Posted by Molly the Airedale at 1:37 AM 49 comments: Wednesday, November 23, 2011 Wordless Wednesday - Bittersweet Update: These berries are from the American Bittersweet vine.

It's from Reilly and Denny! Isn't it just beautiful! This is the inside of it. Reilly and Denny's mom makes her own cards and they are just works of art! Thank you so much, guys. We will be saving this Christmas card forever! It's just gorgeous and so very special! I, Mitch, got a hAirecut yesterday! Mom says that I'm all set now for my birthday pawty on Thursday! So until next time............ Love ya lots Maggie and Mitch Posted by Molly the Airedale at 1:51 AM 31 comments: Saturday, November 19, 2011 Dad's New Geese The post office called us this past Wednesday and told us that they had a HUGE box for us from Tennessee and to please come down to pick it up. We don't live far from the post office and dad was back in no time at all. Dad ordered 4 Barnacle Geese! We have 2 pinioned pair of them and both pair were born this past spring so they're still under a year old. They have bracelets on their ankles - boys on the right ankle and girls on the left ankle. Mom is saying hi to one of the goosies while she was still inside her traveling box. She's got her hat and scarf on. She'll need these in Connecticut this winter! We have a duck house that we built years ago and it's been vacant for quite some time. Mom and dad decided that it was time to spruce it up and fix it up for the Barnacles. This guy is getting moved from the box to his temporary home. Our dad has always loved The Flintstones so he's going to name the geese Fred and Wilma and Barney and Betty Barnacle. The accomodations aren't the most luxurious but they'll do for a couple of days. They do have a roof over their heads and a door that closes and locks and food and water to drink and a swimming pool! Yesterday, dad decided to open the gate and let them meet and greet Dauby and Margaret. Know what? We're not exactly sure that Margaret is a SHE swan. She sure does act agressively and protective for a girl! Dauby has taken a back seat and she lets Margaret take the lead. hummmmmm Mom and dad are thinking of changing her/his name to Chaz! That would explain why Dauby and Margaret were so mean to Carlie, who now lives in Pennsylvania. We feel quite certain that Carlie has probably bonded with a male swan and is happy as can be. We haven't had a call from her new dad but this is what we believe. So out the gate and down to the pond edge the geese go~ They're going to ask permission to swim on Dauby and Margaret/Chaz's pond. They're in with no problems. They were even greeted by the visiting Mallards. So far, so good! We'll keep our fingers and paws crossed that it stays this way! So until next time.............. Love ya lots, Maggie and Mitch Posted by Molly the Airedale at 1:46 AM 39 comments: Thursday, November 17, 2011 Thankful Thursday Our mom came back from Florida on Monday and we are so thankful for that. We are also thankful that our dad took such good care of us and showed us a really good time while mom was gone! Well, we didn't get any of those pizzelles but mom did bring home a beautiful scarf and a cute little silver leather flower purse. What do you think? I think she should have hidden the pizzelles in the purse - that's what I think! Mom says she's so happy to be home. She somehow can't stop smiling at us and kissing the tops of both of our heads! We missed you too and we're so glad you're back, mom! Can you see what's going on behind Mitch's head? Yup, the Airedale Christmas tree is up! So until next time........... Love ya lots, Maggie and Mitch Posted by Molly the Airedale at 1:32 AM 35 comments: Tuesday, November 15, 2011 My Fur Dry Towel Hi everyone. It's me, Mitch! Our friend, Bocci, had a give-away a few days back and we were the lucky winners! The package arrived the day before mom left for Florida so I got to open it! My congratulatory letter~ The letter explains that this towel is uniquely designed to draw water away from my coat and into the absorbent fibers. Lots of times when it's raining, dad takes me for a walk and he has his slicker on. He stays dry but I come home soaked. Mom says that this towel is going to come in handy for these occasions for sure! Hopefully mom doesn't figure out that you're supposed to use it after a bath! shhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! I really like this! It's nice and warm! Mom wanted to see how it hooks and attaches but I don't want to get up for fear she'll take it off me! Okay, I'm up, mom. This huge bib goes between my front legs and then hooks off to one side. Yup, you got it right, mom! How do I look? Pretty snazzy, huh? I'm not a fan of winter coats and I normally run when I see one coming at me but I really, really like this! Mom says it's all mine, Maggie! Remember that you prefer being underneath the umbrella when it's raining out! Thank you so much, Bocci! This is one of the nicest gifts we have ever gotten and know what? It will be my birthday in just over a week! I can't wait till I get wet and wear my new Fur Dry towel! So until next time............... Yer friend, Mitch Posted by Molly the Airedale at 9:04 AM 28 comments: Saturday, November 12, 2011 Pizzelles Mom and Gram made pizzelles yesterday and before they made pizzelles they made peanut butter fudge! We sure wish that we could have been there to share in the fun and get a free sample! Hey, who the heck is that? Mom says that her name is Lilly! We hope that she didn't get any of what could have been OUR pizzelles! So until next time.........

More Than A Million Condoms Recalled In South Africa
toggle caption Denis Farrell/AP
The party may be over, but the trouble may just be starting in South Africa.
The health department in Free State province is recalling 1.35 million condoms that may not be up to snuff.
The affected condoms — a government brand called Choice — were distributed early this month as part of the festivities marking the 100th anniversary of the founding of the African National Congress.
The ANC, the ruling political party in the country for the past 17 years, is known for its pivotal role in the ending of apartheid and its longtime leader Nelson Mandela's message of equality.
But quite a few of the "revolutionary rubbers," as the City Press newspaper called the freebies, reportedly broke during sex. "People would claim that the condoms burst," AIDS activist Sello Mokhalipi, of the Treatment Action Campaign, told the paper. "When we investigated the complaints it turned out the condoms are porous."
A Free State health department spokesman told the Associated Press they were given out in hotels and bars in the city of Bloemfontein during the ANC centenary celebrations there.
Mokhalipi told the AP that TAC's testing with water-filled condoms found "they were leaking like sieves."
The South African Bureau of Standards certifies that condoms are in compliance with international standards. All the condoms reportedly got the SABS OK.
While HIV remains a challenging public health problem in South Africa, a recently published analysis suggests that condoms have played a key role in reducing the incidence of HIV infections in recent years.
Consumer Reports YouTube
If you've ever wondered how condoms are tested, the nerds at Consumer Reports revealed their methods in a video you can watch above. | positive |
The heroes paraded back into the village, leading their mules laden with treasure liberated from a nearby dungeon. As they entered the small village in the middle of nowhere, they soon split up to take care of their spoils. Three of them met with the local jeweler, presenting him with the choicest gems and fine jewelry they’d acquired on their adventure. The others descended on the local merchants to sell off the more mundane treasures while the sorcerer carried the magic items the party did not need to the convenient wizard’s tower, turning them into useful gold coins. The rogue slipped away to meet with the local guildmaster to make his abeyance and provide him with a cut of the treasure. The guildmaster smiled at the bounty and passed on a list to the rogue for items to search for in his further adventures. That evening, the sounds of merriment filled the air of the village. A crowd had gathered at the local tavern and the barmaids whirled away from those patrons who became too “inquisitive” as they delivered the mugs of ale and heaping piles of food to those assembled. The female barbarian noted with approval the new bartender was a strapping young man who was returning her admiring looks. Only the poor watchman was left out, standing his lonely guard as he patrolled the streets of the village, staring out into the darkness that hid who knows what.
If you’re like me, that scene sounds awfully familiar. It’s appeared too often in bad fantasy stories, bad fantasy movies, and WAY too many role playing games. “But Rich,” you say, “the party has to have somewhere to spend their treasure. Otherwise, there’s no point in giving it out?”
And my response is, “You’re absolutely right, but for the wrong reasons.” Let me explain what I mean. (Good, otherwise this would be a darn short blog entry – Editor).
The biggest problem is, that scene above should be taking place in a large town or at least a small city. A medieval (or pseudo-medieval) village is not going to have jewelers or places to sell magic items (if you’re doing that kind of fantasy). The tavern is not going to have a bevy of barmaids and taverns do not traditionally sell food — that’s what the inn was for (if there even was an inn). And why in heaven’s name would you have a village that close to a dungeon populated by evil creatures anyway? Most sensible villagers would have packed up and moved to safer places years ago (if they hadn’t all been killed in their sleep by the monsters). No, this village in the scenario above seems to have only one purpose — to provide adventurers with a place to stay while they’re off looting the local dungeon de jure. Not only is that not realistic — it’s boring.
To help the novice writer or game master avoid this, let’s look at how population centers get started in the first place. First off, take a close look at the terrain of the world you’re setting your story in. People occupy places for two main reasons — it has resources they need AND it has a sufficient source of potable water. That’s why when most new territory was settled, the colonists set up in places that had deep harbors, rivers, sufficient area to plant food, enough wild game to sustain them until they could set up their own animal husbandry, and there had to be salt (either from the ocean or from salt licks/mines).
Once you’ve established your cities on the coastline, then your intrepid colonists can begin pushing inland. Again, most of them will follow rivers whenever possible because it makes for much simpler travel. If the river forks, there’s a good possibility a town will develop there also. It makes a good stopping place for people coming up river and a natural place to set up a trading post to handle goods coming down both forks of the river.
If you push away from the river, there are still reasons why towns spring up out of the ground. Is there a natural choke point in the terrain? Then whomever is in charge of the colonists might erect a fort here to help protect the areas toward the sea. If there’s a fort, then there are soldiers, which means soon there will be soldiers’ wives, taverns, teamsters for hauling supplies, warehouses, churches, gambling halls, and so on. If the fort survives long enough, then the town will begin to morph adding more general housing, merchants, schools, etc. However, if this is a rapidly expanding frontier, there’s a good possibility the fort will become redundant and the soldiers will be moved further into the interior and the town around the fort will become a ghost town (perhaps literally if you’re running a more dark fantasy/horror scenario).
Terrain and water are vital for making your towns and villages feel organic to the story. Think about the resources available for the population when you go to build your population centers. There’s a reason people built sod houses during the early expansion into the Great Plains of the United States – there were minimal trees available on the plains (after all, they weren’t called the Great Forests). Shipping lumber is expensive; especially the further away from a source of water you go, so only the wealthiest of people could afford wooden houses at first. Villages set near the mountains may have numerous buildings made of stone. Villages set in a more desert setting may be made of sandstone and a little wood, although it might even be a tent city as your desert dwellers wander from oasis to oasis, staying only as long as the water holds out.
Just because you have water doesn’t mean you can put any number of people in an area. The Cahokia Mounds in Illinois were believed to have held up to 40,000 people which would have made it the biggest city in North America until the 18th century. However, archeologists now believe the reason that Cahokia was abandoned was not due to warfare but because they had so many people that the water became too polluted to support the population.1 Even pioneers in the 19th century soon learned you can only dig a well so deep before it doesn’t provide enough water. An overabundance of people/livestock/ irrigation can cause a drought as easily as Mother Nature. So, when planning your village for your story, think about how do your people get their water and how they deal with waste water.
And if you’re building sewers, you’re definitely dealing with a fairly advanced culture, a fairly wealthy culture, and probably a fairly old city. In the real world, Paris may have built its first “sewer” around A.D. 1200,2 but it wasn’t until the reign of Napoleon III until what we now think of as the Sewers of Paris were created.3 Considering the fact that Paris was first established back in the 3rd Century B.C.4, that means for over 1500 years, Parisians counted on the Seine River to deal with all their wastes. So, if you’re not dealing with an advanced society, mentioning the “ripeness of the air,” especially in summer, would be appropriate in your story.
So, for sake of argument (and moving this blog post along – Editor), let’s say you’ve reviewed your map, found a perfect intersection of terrain, resources, food, and water to justify putting a village down for your heroes to interact with it. Now what?
People, that’s what. Who’s going to live in your village?
We’ll say your village came about because it’s at a place where two small rivers meet as well as being approximately a day’s ride from a mining camp and an old trail crossed the area nearby. Also, let’s say the trail leads to a large fort that guards a mountain pass, but the fort is several days distant, so there’s some military traffic through the village, but not a lot. Being about a day’s ride from the camp means it’s a natural place for the miners to bring their ore to load it on boats to take down river and a place for merchants to build warehouses to take goods up to the miners. Plus it’s far enough away from the mines for the miners to come blow off a little steam without creating too big a ruckus.
Well, that helps already, with just that nugget of an idea, we’ve already identified several businesses and probably inhabitants for the village. Along with the warehouses, we’ll need stables for the horses, blacksmiths, wainwrights to repair the wagons, teamsters or muleskinners to drive the wagons, general stores for food and other supplies, and perhaps a merchant who specializes in mining equipment. And that’s just the infrastructure to support the mines. The local inhabitants will rely on the general store to provide not only food, but perhaps their seed and farming supplies. (I’m thinking there’s probably not a lot of fertile land near the mines, so the village probably has a symbiotic relationship with the mine – they sell their crops for a share of the profits from the ore. (Bad plot bunny, no carrots.))
Of course, we’re now going to need houses. Most are going to be single story dwellings, although a few of the wealthier merchants may have indulged in a second floor. Villages tended to grow organically, so depending on the terrain, houses may be clumped together here and there, so the streets, if they can be called that, will meander like the proverbial sailor after a good night in port. Also, if this is a pseudo-medieval story, it’s highly unlikely there are street lamps and if there are, they’re going to be clustered near the largest merchants’ dwellings. Unlike the movie version of the American Old West, it’s not likely to have a large straight thoroughfare right through the middle of the town.
Even if this is a fantasy story vice historical fiction, unless there’s something incredibly unique about this village, you’re not going to have a wizard hanging out here. They’re either going to be in a major city where they can get patrons to fund their research or they’re probably in the middle of nowhere so when their research goes boom, no one notices, except maybe their poor apprentices. They might come “to” the village to get mundane supplies (and new apprentices), but they’re not going to build a tower or set up a magic shop in a village like we’re building here. If anything, you might find a hedge wizard plying his trade or a witch who specializes in healing—think Miracle Max vice Merlin. It would be a miracle to find someone with serious power in this village unless they’re strictly passing through and your audience is going to need to believe there is a good reason for them to be here unless you want your book to become a projectile in the hands of an angry reader.
I suspect the miner’s camp will have its share of tent taverns and camp followers to help relieve the miners of their pay, but in this village, since it is a destination point for traders, we can assume there’s probably “a” tavern and “an” inn. Probably nearby each other, but not too close. The inn is going to cater more toward the travelers who are going through the area, so the owner is likely to be rather particular about who they let stay there. Since this village does see a lot of river traffic though, let’s say there’s a small building attached to it where the locals prepare food for visitors. If someone’s is there, either they’re a stranger in town or one of the people who works there — the locals will eat in their own homes.
The tavern is likely to be familiar to tavern goers whether in the middle ages or modern times. Our tavern will have a long wooden bar to protect the alcohol (and the bartender) when the inevitable fight breaks out. Possibly a few kegs of ale — might even have one that’s imported from downriver — a few bottles of stronger alcohol and maybe something exotic they keep just for those occasional heroes who wander through with real money. It’s unlikely there is more than one barmaid and it’s probable she’s the bartender’s wife. There are going to be a few tables and chairs of uncertain repair. On certain nights, there might even be a musician playing for tips and drinks.
We’ll add a few more places to help round out the village. This village is fairly prosperous due to the mine, so we’ll also give them a small meeting house. It serves as the court house, the town council’s chambers, a place for the local children to take lessons during the day, and a place to host the dances on festival days. There is a small jail to deal with the occasional brawl at the tavern and the sheriff sleeps in a room in the back part of the jail. His three constables have houses in town and report for duty at dusk. There’ll also be one or two temples, but given the small size of the population, it’s likely one of them deals with the dominant religion in the area (or major god if you have a pantheon for your tale) and then one more non-denominational for everyone else who comes by. Neither is likely to be ornate, but the non-denominational one is probably more run-down due to lack of support.
So, now when your heroes come up river, en route to their adventure, you now have a realistic village for them to disembark. Remember though, realistic doesn’t mean it’s boring. Will your heroes get caught in a war between two wealthy merchants (see: Lincoln County War)? Is there a rampaging army (monster, human, or other) heading to loot the mine and will the townspeople pay your heroes to help defend them (see: The Magnificent Seven)? Perhaps there’s been a rash of hijackings, either on the river or on the route to the mine and the merchant’s council will pay your heroes to discover who’s trying to run them out of business. And what if all of this is being coordinated by a malevolent being who wants…
Well, that’s up to you what someone might want here.
After all, it’s your world.

Thousands of Marxists, Communists, Anarchists and Trade Unionists were addressed by Labour party leader Jeremy Corbyn at an International Workers’ Day march in London today.
Also known as Labour Day, May Day is a supposed international celebration of labourers, the working classes, and anti-capitalists values.
Hard left Mr. Corbyn is the first British Labour party leader to address a May Day rally in 50 years.
He spoke from the top of a red bus to a sea of red flags, adorned with the hammer and sickle of communism and the faces of dozens of genocidal dictators.
Many Partiya Karkeren Kurdistani (PKK), or Kurdistan Worker’s Party, flags flew openly among the crowd, despite the group being proscribed as an illegal terrorist group in the UK in March 2001.
Mr. Corbyn, who has refused to acknowledge there is an anti-Semitism “problem” or “crisis” within his party, claimed his party were “united” and stood “against racism in any form”.
One huge banner in the crowd read: “Oppose witch-hunt against Livingstone – Led by enemies of Corbyn”. Ken Livingstone, the former Labour Mayor of London, has refused to apologise for claiming Hitler was a Zionist.
Another said: “Defend Palestinians against Zionist Terror! For a socialist republic of the near East!”
Mr. Corbyn told the crowd: “We stand in solidarity now against the growth of the far right across Europe that are more interested in blaming migrant workers, blaming victims of war who are refugees, than facing up to the reality that we are all human beings living on one planet and you solve problems by human rights, humanity and justice and respect, not by blaming minorities.
According to the Huffington Post, he continued: “And so we stand absolutely against anti-Semitism in any form.
“We stand absolutely against racism in any form. We stand united as a Labour movement, recognising our faith diversity, our ethnic diversity.
“And from that diversity comes our strength. That is the strength of our movement.”
Yesterday, it was reported that Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has commissioned an inquiry into anti-Semitism within his party.
Wide spread allegation of anti-Semitism were brought into focus after an MP was suspended for having previously called for the “transportation” of Jews from the Middle East and the former Labour Mayor of London refused to apologise for claiming Hitler was a “Zionist”.
Despite being a lifelong eurosceptic, Mr. Corbyn recently came out for staying in the EU. However, Eurosceptic sentiment was strong in the crowd.

I have already published an article on the subject, but this time I want to take a different approach.
The easiest way to understand what Subject is is to re-create one. Let’s create a simple version of Subject .
Let’s look at the facts.
Subject is both an Observable and Observer
Subject is Observable
It means he has all the operators ( map , filter , etc. ) and you can subscribe to him.
That’s all you need for the first part. You can be Observable by extending the Observable class.
Subject is Observer
It means he must implement the next() , error() , and the complete() methods.
OK, let’s move to the next fact.
Subject can act as a bridge/proxy between the source observable and many observers, making it possible for multiple observers to share the same observable execution.
When you call the subscribe() method you only push an observer into an array. The next() , error() and complete() methods will push the same value to each observer in the array.
Let’s use our Subject.
When using a Subject , it does not matter when you subscribe you will always get the same execution as opposed to the typical observable where you will start a new execution upon every subscription. ( in our case it means that you will have two unrelated intervals )
Subject let you share the same observable execution
Let’s summarize what happened here.
When you call subscribe on a subject, you just push the observer into an array.
When the subject act as an observer , he will call next() on every observer in the array when the source emits. ( in our case the interval )
BehaviorSubject
Now let’s try to implement a simple version of BehaviorSubject .
Let’s look at the facts.
BehaviorSubject needs an initial value as it must always return a value on subscription even if it hasn’t received a next() .
needs an initial value as it must always return a value on subscription even if it hasn’t received a . Upon subscription it returns the last value of the subject.
At any point you can retrieve the last value of the subject in a non-observable code using the getValue() method.
Let’s use our BehaviorSubject .
ReplaySubject
Now let’s try to implement a simple version of ReplaySubject .
Let’s look at the facts.
ReplaySubject represents an object that is both an observable sequence as well as an observer.
represents an object that is both an observable sequence as well as an observer. Each notification is broadcasted to all subscribed and future observers, subject to buffer trimming policies.
Let’s use our ReplaySubject .
When to use Subject
You need to share the same observable execution.
When you need to decide what to do when an observer arrives late, do we use ReplaySubject , BehaviorSubject ?
, ? You need full control over the next() , error() and complete() methods.
Note: The following examples are just to illustrate the concept, they are not production ready, and they are not the real or the full implementation of Subjects in Rx.
🔥 Last but Not Least, Have you Heard of Akita?
Akita is a state management pattern that we’ve developed here in Datorama. It’s been successfully used in a big data production environment, and we’re continually adding features to it.
Akita encourages simplicity. It saves you the hassle of creating boilerplate code and offers powerful tools with a moderate learning curve, suitable for both experienced and inexperienced developers alike.
I highly recommend checking it out.

Go to Shop. July 13 2015 Best UK Festivals for Families 2015 (Photo by Camp Bestival) When you are young, free and single, the idea of bringing children to a music festival sounds like hell on earth. After all, who wants to spend their festival dragging a pram through mud, or hunting for toddlers in a mosh pit? Well, luckily, this is no longer the only option. While you are still very welcome to try to keep track of your kids on a rainy weekend in Glastonbury, it doesn’t have to be like that. The current crop of family-friendly festivals have managed to strike the perfect balance between ‘grown up fun’ and ‘kid-appropriate’. Think watersports, dressing up boxes, kite displays, miniature railways, and cardboard cities; alongside coffee stands, cocktail bars, big-name headliners and world class DJs. This year, there is a huge range of kid-friendly festivals to choose from, all offering a unique blend of the creative and the quirky. Take a look at our top seven choices, and prepare yourselves for a summer staycation which actually promises to be fun for all the family. Beautiful Days Location: Escot Park, Devon Date: 21-23 August Link: http://www.beautifuldays.org/ This award-winning festival just keeps getting better and better. This year, Beautiful Days boasts another eclectic line up featuring the likes of House of Pain, Happy Mondays, Gogol Bordello and Wilko Johnson, as well as all the usual fringe activities and some of the best children’s entertainment on the UK festival scene. The Children’s Area at Beautiful Days is curated by the Majical Youth Theatre and features workshops, funfair rides, music, comedy, theatre and lots of other activities for children of all ages. What’s more, because the kids’ area is situated between the Main Stage and the Big Top, you can plan your perfect family day with minimal trekking. Don’t miss… The Circus of Horrors – it’s too scary for younger kids but teenagers will love the gory spectacle of watching a man pull a sword out of his throat. Cornbury Festival Location: The Great Tew Park, Oxfordshire Date: 10-12 July Link: http://www.cornburyfestival.com/ Cornbury Festival describes itself as “civilised, charming and irresistible”, and it’s not wrong… This is a quintessentially English festival, complete with bunting, cider and Morris dancers, who weave through the crowd when you least expect to see them. The laid-back, homespun vibe makes it the perfect place for families of all ages, and although the Children’s Zone is expertly kitted out with balloon shows, fancy dress, circus skills and musical workshops, the chances are that they’ll be just as entranced by the bright lights of the Disco Shed, headline acts such as Lulu, Razorlight or Tom Jones, and the roaming entertainers. Don’t miss…the food! This is one of the few festivals who actually take their catering seriously, and a sponsorship deal with Caffe Nero means you can get a mean cappuccino (or babyccino) first thing in the morning. The Deer Shed Location: Baldersby Park, North Yorkshire Date: 24-26 July Link: http://www.deershedfestival.com/ This festival was dreamed up by a group of parents who were sick of the sub-par entertainment on offer for kids at other festivals. At The Deer Shed, it’s all about the kids – we’re talking eight tonnes of play sand (and a whole shedload of buckets and spades), a soft play area, a cardboard city (yes, a cardboard city), and a huge sports field bursting with activities. There’s even a milk-warming centre for the babies. This might be a child’s dream festival, but that doesn’t mean that there isn’t anything for the parents! This year’s headliners include a rare appearance by cult folk singer John Grant, as well as other contemporary folk favourites such as James Yorkston, Emmy the Great and Damian Dempsey. Billy Bragg headlines on the opening night, while The Unthanks close the festival on Sunday evening. This year’s theme is ‘Up in the Air’, so keep your eyes on the skies and you never know what you might see! Don’t miss… the cardboard city. Did we mention the cardboard city? (Photo by Lakefest) Lakefest Location: Croft Farm Waterpark, Gloucestershire Date: 7-9 August Link: http://lakefest.co.uk/ It’s a festival at a waterpark – what more could you ask for? While the parents will be attracted to the stellar line up (this year’s headliners include Ash, Embrace, Billy Bragg and The Magic Numbers), the kids will also have plenty to be excited about. Expect storytelling, face-painting, circus acts, gladiator dueling, bungee running, arts and crafts and the ever-popular Lakefest Treasure Hunt. But the real draw at Lakefest is – you guessed it – the lake. Kids (and adults) can take part in all sorts of watersports, including banana boat rides, aqua zorbing, kayaking, sailing and 6-man katakanuing. Bring a sense of adventure and all the swimming gear you find. Don’t miss…zorbing on the lake. The most fun you can have on the water while staying completely dry. Camp Bestival Location: Lulworth Castle, Dorset Date: 30 July – 2 August Link: http://www.campbestival.net/ The original family-friendly festival is still hitting it out of the park when it comes to themes and activities. This year the theme is ‘Into the Wild’, and the Camp Bestival crew are taking it very seriously indeed. At the Dingly Dell, families will learn basic survival skills together, including how to make a fire in the wilderness, how to identify trees, and how to build a home for faeries. There is a comedy club for kids, a range of theatrical workshops, a soft play area for the tots, and a series of great wilderness-inspired films such as Madagascar and Up. The Den caters specifically to teenagers aged 13-17, and includes an exclusive Q&A with Professor Green, plus live performances and DJ sets from the likes of Rob Da Bank. Apparently there are also a few bands playing on the main stage. But let’s face it, the most fun is to be had running around the site in a home-made owl costume, while wearing a leaf mask and looking for faeries. Don’t miss… The Jungle Book Bedtime Story – read by celebrity guests such as Sara Cox, Michaela Strachan and Dick n Dom. The perfect way to end a busy day, no matter how old you are. Solfest Location: Tarnside Farm, near Aspatria, Cumbria Date: 28-30 August Link: http://www.solfest.org.uk/ Set along the coastal edge of the Lake District, Solfest is a haven of tranquility. Between storming sets by Maximo Park, The Joy Formidable, KT Tunstall and The South, festival goers can relax in the Healing Gardens, trek through the beautiful surroundings or catch a spot of teddy parachuting with the kids. The kite displays are a popular draw, so bring your own home-made creation if you want to get involved! Don’t miss… The Solfest Community Musical – a nature-themed performance by local residents that everyone is welcome to join. Just make sure you turn up for rehearsals on the Saturday, and be there with your instruments in hand for the Sunday afternoon performance. Chilled in a Field Festival Location: Bentley Wildfowl and Motor Museum, East Sussex Date: 31 July – 2 August Link: http://www.chilledinafieldfestival.co.uk/ Chilled in a Field won the prestigious gold award by Festival Kidz last year, marking it out as one of the UK’s best family-friendly festivals. This year, it looks set to build on its success with a “fantastical” offering of fun, games, music and dancing. Why not start the day off with a spot of glitter wrestling, followed by a session on the tree-top zipwire?

MANILA: Expect bigger Cabinet changes next year, Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong told the media on Saturday (Apr 29), at the end of his trip to the Philippine capital for the ASEAN Summit.
The latest round of Cabinet changes announced on Thursday saw Senior Minister of State Josephine Teo appointed as Singapore's second female minister and Senior Minister of State Desmond Lee, 40, promoted to the Cabinet's youngest minister.

Commenting on this, Mr Lee said: “This one is not a full set of changes, I expect to do a much bigger change next year. And then there will be more ministers, more changes by that time and then more new ministers will be helming their own ministries.”
Asked why Mrs Teo and Mr Lee were promoted to ministers in the Prime Minister’s Office, instead of helming their own ministries, Mr Lee replied: “I promoted ministers because they deserve to be promoted. They've shown that they are capable of more responsibilities. They have done good work and I expect them to do even more.”
Mr Lee said Mrs Teo, who will be Second Minister for Manpower, was paired to shadow Manpower Minister Lim Swee Say as they have worked together for a long time.
“And Desmond who is in MND (Ministry of National Development) and MHA (Ministry of Home Affairs) - I've left him there and I'm sure his ministers, now knowing that he is a minister, will give him more work to do,” Mr Lee said with a laugh.

Mr Lee has stressed the urgency for leadership renewal in recent years, to ensure a new team is in place to take Singapore forward. During last year's National Day Rally, he said his successor must be ready to take over from him soon after the next general election. | positive |

I was working on a quick RHONJ blog round-up, that I will still publish, but I suddenly realized that I needed a whole post just for Amber. I’ve received a some information over the past few days that I was not sure I was going to use, and if I was how I was going to use it. It happens a lot. I read something interesting but don’t always feel compelled to share everything here. After reading the first page of Amber’s blog I thought I should flesh out a few things that she is not sharing. And since it was the focus of a New York Times article or two, I’ve decided to fill you guys in. So, it’s tea time at Tamaratattles.com !
Amber’s blog begins with her giving A LOT of background on her life. She mentions that she is the step-mother to their two oldest boys. It’s unclear whether they have full-time custody. Jim has previously attempted to get custody but failed. Amber says that she and Jim have been married for eight years. She does not mention Jim’s shady past. But I will!
First, it’s math time again! Amber’s blog says her stepson, Michael, is 14 so he was likely born in 2000 and Sebastian age 11 was likely born in 2003 give or take a few months. Back in 2002, Jim Marchese was living in Seattle, Washington married to his former wife. He worked for a company called Cell Therapeutics. It was a pharmaceutical company that was marketing a cancer drug for a very rare form of cancer, affecting only 1,500 patients per year. That small market would not provide any profits for a drug company to be motivated to create a drug.
Cell Therapeutics fired Jim in 2002 alleging he was taking kickbacks from physicians. Jim has denied any wrong doing . A few months later, Jim went to the FDA to “blow the whistle” on Cell Therapeutics claiming that the company was illegally promoting the drug as a viable treatment for more commonly occurring forms of cancer than the tiny population the FDA had approved the drug to treat. Basically, they were alleged to have paid doctors bogus consulting fees to attend seminars encouraging them to use the drug for “off label” purposes.
Now, the deal with these big whistleblower lawsuits is that the person who brings the goods, in this case Jim, gets a cut of the fines levied against the company. The whistleblower usually gets between 15% and 25% of the award by the court. Jim stood to gain $2.8 million dollars.
But that all sort of fell apart when prosecutors determined that Jim was the mastermind of the entire scheme he reported to the FDA! You can read the entire NYT article here, but here is the juicy part.
Prosecutors contend Mr. Marchese engineered a complex scheme that misled oncologists and Medicare into believing that Trisenox had been approved for treating cancers other than A.P.L. Mr. Marchese said that if he did anything wrong, it was an innocent mistake. (Editor’s note, sounds just like Teresa and Joe!) To make matter worse, prosecutors say, Mr. Marchese destroyed and hid evidence to conceal his role. A main witness against him is a former girlfriend. She told prosecutors that she accompanied Mr. Marchese in 2004 to a storage warehouse in New Jersey to retrieve company documents for his planned whistle-blower lawsuit against Cell Therapeutics. But she said he told her that he needed to cull the files and destroy materials that would implicate him, filings show. (Editor’s note: Who needs a storage unit to house files from work?) There is also the issue of an unpublished manuscript by Mr. Marchese, “The Heart of the Matter.” The salesman’s former girlfriend, who is not identified by name in filings, has told prosecutors that she read and helped edit the manuscript, which she says details Mr. Marchese’s days at Cell Therapeutics, including his “successful efforts to illegally market Trisenox.”
For this reason the prosecutors said that he did not deserve any compensation for providing all of the necessary documents to implicate Cell Therapeutics at all. According to the NYT article, this is Jim’s reasoning for being paid.
Mr. Marchese said he had paid a high personal price for talking to the government, including being blackballed from the drug industry. “I’ve lost six years of my life, my job, my home,” he said. “It has destroyed my marriage and made my life hell.”
When I initially investigated this story, I read that the court, in 2007 awarded him $1.8 million dollars. According to Amber’s blog she had been married to Jim for eight years, placing their wedding at 2006. Jim’s whistleblowing case began in 2002 which means he had been expecting a big pay out since then. Ahem.
One more fun fact about Jim, his cousin is Lori- Ann Marchese one of the wingnuts on Game of Crowns. This tidbit was shared by Dina on WWHL who gave the distinct impression she is NOT found of Jim.
So make of that what you will. Now back to the blog, which isn’t anywhere as interesting as the above.
Here is what Amber had to say about her mean comments about Melissa:
The comment that I made about Melissa “going about success a different way than me by marrying wealth” was not a fair statement, and I want to apologize to Melissa. That comment sounds like I was referring to her a “gold digger.” I do not believe that in any way. Melissa is a college graduate and has always been a hard worker. She always had her head on straight and worked hard for goals. I think this is one of the reasons we got along so well, we had a mutual respect for one another. What I failed to articulate with that comment is that she dreamed of getting married and having a family early on in her life. She aspired early on to be an amazing wife and mother that she truly is today. I am proud of her.
And about TwinTre:
As for the twins, I do care for them, so it hurts to hear Teresa and Rino make such nasty comments about my party and family. The twins were aware of the importance of the party and that it was meant to be an intimate evening. I tried to accommodate them the best we could when they wanted to invite thirty additional guests to my party just one week prior, but clearly that did not seem to make them happy. To hear TA-RE-SA refer to my child as a “little fucking kid” as she left just tore me up. She knows my children; my daughter absolutely adores them both. It was hurtful to hear her say that. A simple rule of etiquette: when a young gentleman, regardless of age, properly greets you at the door, offers to take your shawl and escorts you into a room of guests, you do not refer to him as a “little fucking kid.” For the record, she was referring to my 7 year old son and he properly put her shawl in the closet next to the front entrance.
And about TwinTre’s drunk husband Rino:
As for Rino, I am not really interested in his opinions of my party. I don’t sit here insulting his restaurants. He was a guest at a very meaningful event for me and my family, but he clearly did not care. It was apparent Rino cannot hold his alcohol. He was so drunk that he was making my dog extremely nervous and slurred something about Bugs Bunny and funerals. Sorry, Rino, our party did not meet your expectations.
Sidenote: Thank god drunk people don’t make Banjo nervous! 🙂
And Dina’s comments about her party:
Speaking of Dina, I got a good vibe from her. She seems nice and I love what she does to help children with cancer. She gets an “A” in my books. Side note, did she really mean to comment about the snowy walkway after showing up three hours after the party started? We had cleared and salted ten times over by that point. Anyway, she seems nice enough, but only time will tell.
Whether or not we like Amber, I think we can agree there will be A LOT to talk about! So let’s get started!

Are we confirmed on a date for this month's meeting? As I was leaving work today, there was a guy out front asking if Boston.pm was meeting tonight, seeing as this is the second Tuesday of the month. I told him to sign up for the list to get the announcement -- partly because I'm bad with names and knew I wouldn't remember his or his email address. sorry about that, if I'm talking about you :( So... Ronald?
</administrivia> On a different note, last weekend on NPR there was a puzzle that it seems to me could be solved pretty neatly by a Perl script, and I'm curious what solutions people would try for it. Consider the following string: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 = 2002 The problem is to add any number of addition & multiplication operations wherever you'd like on the left such that in the end you have a valid equation. So for example if it gets you to a solution you can have: 12 * 345 + 6 ... if that works as part of your solution [it's much too big: 4146]. Bearing in mind that multiplication takes higher precedence than addition, what is the solution? Supposedly there is only one correct answer, but I haven't yet figured it out. Anyone want to suggest a clever solution? Maybe a oneliner? Maybe a proof of multiple correct answers? Fire away :) -- Chris Devers _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm | positive |

Now her actions have cost her £340 after Great Yarmouth Borough Council took her to court.
On April 28 this year a woman, now known to be Janette Wise, 53, of Victoria Road, Great Yarmouth, was caught on CCTV failing to clear up after her dog.
She let her pooch foul on two occasions: once on the footpath on Deneside, and again along Regent Road, both outside shops.
The case was proved in her absence at Great Yarmouth Magistrates’ Court. She was fined £80 for each offence, and told to pay £150 costs plus a £30 victim surcharge.
Chairman of the environment committee Carl Smith said dog-fouling is a crime that happens across the country, but in Great Yarmouth the council was working proactively to tackle that minority of dog-owners who pollute the environment for everyone.
He added: “We know that the public supports this approach, which helps to ensure our special public spaces are as clean as possible, and we know that the vast majority of dog owners always pick up their dog’s mess, bag it and bin it.
“Our rangers are hugely successful in securing prosecutions and, as this case shows, will use evidence provided to help secure a prosecution, so please do continue providing your valuable tip-offs for them to follow-up.”
He said the borough council’s environmental rangers continue to appeal to residents to report any dog owners seen breaking the law, so they can investigate and prosecute.
One of the borough council’s priorities is to support people who want to contribute to enhancing the borough, and to challenge people and their behaviour when they disrupt others’ quality of life.
Anyone who witnesses an environmental crime in the borough or has information that may help to identify an offender should contact the environmental rangers.
They are asked to provide as much information as possible, such as the location and time of the offence, description of the offender(s) and dog, and the registration number of any vehicle involved.

When word got out Tuesday that NFL officials were warning teams of impending crackdowns on celebrations including sack dances, home run swings, ball spikes and ball spins, some circles of the Internet overreacted, apparently believing the NFL was cutting back on any form of celebration more intense than a fist pump. It wasn’t without reason; the NFL didn’t earn the No Fun League moniker by accident. Increased celebration homogenization could have been the next step in the league’s ongoing quest to take all the fun out of football.
But worry not, fans of enthusiastic celebrations; it’s not as bad as you think. Players will still be able to salute, dance, shimmy and flip for joy on the football field, just not at the same frequency as before. For The Win has a visual guide to what will and won’t be acceptable in 2013.
Military salutes
Though excessively lame and somewhat disrespectful, salutes will be allowed, provided they aren’t made toward members of the opposing team. This is a key distinction, in that I can’t think of a single salute in recent memory that was directed toward a member of the opposing team.
Aaron Rodgers’ belt celebration
Still within the rules, provided it’s not done while stomping on Ndamukong Suh.
Dancing like Pee-Wee Herman
This is a grayer area. In this dance, Jared Odrick isn’t near a Buffalo Bills quarterback. But all sacks come against another a player and, theoretically, Ryan Fitzpatrick was still on the ground while it was occurring. Is that taunting? There’s also this: In a rule clarification posted on Twitter on Wednesday, NFL PR man Brian McCarthy noted that “TD celebrations” were exempt, as long as they weren’t taunting. A mention of non-TD celebrations like sack dances were conspicuously absent.
Ball spinning
Steve Smith, Pierre Garcon, Santana Moss and other ball spinners may be out luck this year. According to McCarthy’s tweet, they’ll be allowed to spin the ball after touchdowns (provided it’s not taunting), but not necessarily after catches in the field of play. That’d be disappointing to people who love celebrations on six-yard outs that result in a 4th and 4.
Postgame back flips
This will be moot, because it’s doubtful the Jets will have anything to celebrate in 2013.
Home run swings
Fret not, Alfred Morris. You’re home run power is still good here, with the same TD/no taunting caveat. At least someone in D.C. will still be able to hit for power, amirite Nationals fans?!
Chucking the ball at a video intern
Is that guy an opponent? No? Then this is still cool with the NFL, if frowned upon by the Video Intern Guild of America.
B.J. Raji’s rumble hula
Still legal, and it better be. If we can’t see B.J. Raji shaking his hips in the end zone, then what’s this all for? | positive |

A Wheel of Time TV series is indeed in the works.
In a press statement, Harriet McDougal -- the editor of the Wheel of Time novels and widow of Robert Jordan -- announced an official announcement about the forthcoming series should be coming from a studio soon.
"Wanted to share with you exciting news about The Wheel of Time. Legal issues have been resolved. The Wheel of Time will become a cutting edge TV series! I couldn’t be more pleased," she wrote on Google+. "Look for the official announcement coming soon from a major studio."

Wheel of Time was included on IGN's list of the 5 unadapted fantasy series that deserve Hollywood's attention. One of the most recognizable and popular fantasy series of all time, Wheel of Time is a massive epic with a sprawling cast of characters that tells the story of the quest to find the Dragon Reborn and stop the Dark One.
In 2015, Red Eagle Entertainment released a low budget "pilot" for Wheel of Time that aired late in the night on FXX, seemingly in an attempt to hold onto the series' rights. After McDougal claimed no knowledge of the project, Red Eagle sued her for slander, though it seems those legal problems have since been resolved.

A Brief Introduction to VirtualGL
VirtualGL is an open source toolkit that gives any Linux or Unix remote display software the ability to run OpenGL applications with full hardware acceleration. Some remote display software cannot be used with OpenGL applications at all. Other remote display software forces OpenGL applications to use a slow, software-only renderer, to the detriment of performance as well as compatibility. The traditional method of displaying OpenGL applications to an X server on a different machine (indirect rendering) supports hardware acceleration, but this approach requires that all of the OpenGL commands and 3D data be sent over the network to be rendered. That is not a tenable proposition unless the 3D data is relatively small and static, unless the network is very fast, and unless the OpenGL application is specifically tuned for a remote X-Windows environment.
With VirtualGL, the OpenGL commands and 3D data are instead redirected to a GPU in the application server, and only the rendered frames are sent over the network. VirtualGL thus virtualizes GPU hardware, allowing it to be co-located in the "cold room" with compute and storage resources. VirtualGL also allows GPUs to be shared among multiple users, and it provides "workstation-like" levels of performance on 100-megabit and faster networks. This makes it possible for large, noisy, hot 3D workstations to be replaced with laptops or even thinner clients. More importantly, however, VirtualGL eliminates the workstation and the network as barriers to data size. Users can now visualize huge amounts of data in real time without needing to copy any of the data over the network or sit in front of the machine that is rendering the data.
Normally, a Un*x OpenGL application sends all of its graphics rendering commands and data, both 2D and 3D, to an X-Windows server, which may be located across the network from the application server. VirtualGL employs a technique called "split rendering" to redirect the 3D commands and data from the OpenGL application to a GPU in the application server. VGL accomplishes this by pre-loading a dynamic shared object (DSO), the VirtualGL Faker, into the OpenGL application at run time. The VirtualGL Faker intercepts and modifies a handful of GLX, OpenGL, X11, and XCB function calls in order to divert OpenGL rendering from the 3D application's windows into corresponding pixel buffers ("Pbuffers"), which VGL creates in GPU memory on the application server. When the 3D application swaps the OpenGL drawing buffers or flushes the OpenGL command buffer to indicate that it has finished rendering a frame, VirtualGL reads back the rendered frame from the Pbuffer and transports it (which normally involves delivering the frame to the "2D X server" and compositing it into the 3D application's window.)
The beauty of this approach is its non-intrusiveness. VirtualGL monitors a few X11 commands and events to determine when windows have been resized, etc., but it does not interfere in any way with the delivery of X11 2D drawing commands to the X server. For the most part, VGL does not interfere with the delivery of OpenGL commands to the GPU, either. VGL merely forces the OpenGL commands to be delivered to a GPU that is attached to a different X server (the "3D X server") than the X server to which the 2D drawing commands are delivered (the "2D X server".) Once the OpenGL rendering has been redirected to a Pbuffer, everything (including esoteric OpenGL extensions, fragment/vertex shaders, etc.) should "just work." If an OpenGL application runs correctly when accessing a 3D server/workstation locally, then the same application should run correctly with VirtualGL when accessing the same machine remotely. | positive |

The company’s mission is “to be the life insurance company of choice for our Farm Bureau family. Our focus is to provide competitive products and superior customer service while observing the highest ethical standards.” However, SFBLIC is more than just a life insurance company; it truly cares and invests in the communities it serves. Keeping its employees in mind, SFBLIC created a culture around community outreach and involvement to benefit its employees and the surrounding communities. In 2014, the company established a workplace employee volunteer program where, one day each year, employees go out into their communities to volunteer. Each month, a day is planned where groups of employees visit different community partners to spend a day giving back, while also representing SFBLIC. Because the employees of SFBLIC have many talents, different service opportunities are offered. The employees enjoy these days and a steady increase in participation has seen more than 200 employees involved each year. “Community service and volunteering is something that I have always enjoyed because it challenges me to keep the mindset of putting others before myself, and I am thankful to work for a company that shares that same outlook,” said Mary Katherine Shipp, Senior PC Training Specialist, Corporate Training and Development. SFBLI employees assist a local community partner during Workplace Employee Volunteer Day. Overall wellbeing is at the forefront of many discussions at SFBLIC, and community giving and volunteering are vital components to achieving that goal. Creating a culture around community involvement sets the workforce of SFBLIC apart. With numerous corporate sponsorships, sponsored community events, and countless volunteer opportunities, the company invests in creating a culture that is centered on community involvement. The employees of SFBLIC invest their talents and time each month with different community projects and events. These projects consist of landscaping grounds, organizing donation closets and classrooms, serving as mentors for children in the community and building homes for those without one to call their own. The amount of work, time and effort the employees of SFBLIC pour into the community each month shows just how much they care to make an impact. With each volunteer project, dollar donated, and hour volunteered, the employees of SFBLIC continue to enrich their overall wellbeing along with bettering the community. “Those who are fortunate are meant to give back to their community when they can. This is best illustrated in Matthew 25:40 which reads, ‘…Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of Mine, you did for Me.’ It is a blessing to work for a company that takes this sentiment to heart. In an industry where the bottom line is often the primary concern, SFBLIC remembers what is important and sacrifices employee productivity by encouraging personnel to give back without having to sacrifice their paycheck. The company encourages personal enrichment in addition to professional enrichment. It’s thinking like this that makes SFBLIC one of the premier employers in the state of Mississippi,” said Zach Farmer, Assistant Portfolio Manager, Securities Management. SFBLI employees present a gift to Make-A-Wish Foundation. In 1987, SFBLIC saw a need in the community with a local elementary school and made a commitment to become an adopt-a-school partner. Thirty years later, Watkins Elementary School continues to enrich the lives of many employees. There are repeat volunteers who jump at the opportunity to give back to Watkins by reading during Dr. Seuss Day, judging science fairs, participating in mentoring programs and serving the staff at various luncheons to kick-off the school year. In 2016, SFBLIC partnered with a company called Agape North, an apparel company from Memphis, TN to provide uniforms to the children at Watkins Elementary School. In a little under a year, the partnership was able to give a new uniform to each Watkins student. Moments like those at the uniform distribution are when SFBLIC’s team members really see the personal impact they make by volunteering, purchasing products, and donating their money each month. “The two most gratifying feelings for me are to serve others and put a smile on someone’s face. As a part of Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company’s Employee Committee, I get a chance to do both of those things through community involvement. It was truly a heartwarming experience to see the smiles on both the students’ and teachers’ faces at Watkins Elementary School when we helped distribute uniforms to the needy students and served lunch to the teachers. Through Farm Bureau’s hard work, employee initiatives, and the variety of volunteer programs, they discover ways to make serving our community a year-round mission,” said Adrieme Walker, Supervisor, EFT Services. In 2010, SFBLIC implemented a program called SFBLIC CARES. Employees alone gave $145,860 in 2016 and have given over $800,000 since the inception of the program. Employees have the option to opt into this program during the company’s open enrollment each year. A group of 12 community partners is selected by the employees for the SFBLIC CARES workplace giving campaign every year during a nomination and survey process. The campaign has been very successful by allowing each person the opportunity to give to a cause they truly believe in. Southern Farm Bureau Life Insurance Company has a mission to service its policyholders and agents with the best customer service, while also being a leader in community outreach; it is evident that SFBLIC’s main focus is people. The amount of volunteer hours and dollars given are all because the employees of SFBLIC care deeply for its community and its people.

Image caption Woodhead made her accusation when Mr Joseph ended their 18-month relationship
A man who was falsely accused of rape by his ex-girlfriend has said it will take years to rebuild his life.
Paul Joseph said Kate Woodhead, 31, who was jailed for three years on Monday, left him with nothing when she accused him of rape at their home in Surrey.
He lost his job as an IT consultant, his home and his collection of cars.
"For me, it is as if someone's house burned down and everything they owned was in it. That is effectively what happened to me," he said.
Guildford Crown Court heard Woodhead told police Mr Joseph, 39, had drugged her before attacking her at their home near Wisley.
She then stole property worth about £23,500, including an expensive stereo and art prints, and transferred ownership of his sports car and motorcycle to her own name.
Briefcase and laptop
Mr Joseph said she had also transferred to her name the £4,000-a-month rented home.
"I walked out of the house wearing my suit when I was arrested and I never saw anything again apart from one briefcase and a work laptop," he said.
The rape investigation was dropped when officers became suspicious that Woodhead had made it up and she was charged, but by this time Mr Joseph had lost his job.
Woodhead denied charges of perverting the course of justice, theft and fraud but was found guilty by a jury.
'Never enough'
Mr Joseph said the period after his arrest was difficult mentally. He felt isolated because his former work colleagues knew of the accusations and he was worried about the outcome.
"I think three years is a good sentence but for me it is never going to be enough," said Mr Joseph, who now has another job and has moved to Kent.
"It is done - it is over and I am trying to work as hard as I can to get back to where I was.
"It is going to take a number of years, but that is pretty much all I can do." | positive |

The Dragonfly Spectral Line Mapper: Design and First Light - BaryonBib Home arXiv Account PREPRINT 7B1409B8-BF07-4794-B45B-9D92D95AF38B The Dragonfly Spectral Line Mapper: Design and First Light Seery Chen, Deborah M. Lokhorst, Jeff Shen, Imad Pasha, Evegni I. Malakhov, Roberto G. Abraham, Pieter van Dokkum arXiv:2209.07489 Submitted on 15 September 2022 Read PDF Summary Info Abstract The Dragonfly Spectral Line Mapper (DSLM) is the latest evolution of the Dragonfly Telephoto Array, which turns it into the world's most powerful wide-field spectral line imager. The DSLM will be the equivalent of a 1.6m aperture f/0.26 refractor with a built-in Integral Field Spectrometer, covering a five square degree field of view. The new telescope is designed to carry out ultra-narrow bandpass imaging of the low surface brightness universe with exquisite control over systematic errors, including real-time calibration of atmospheric variations in airglow. The key to Dragonfly's transformation is the "Filter-Tilter", a mechanical assembly which holds ultra-narrow bandpass interference filters in front of each lens in the array and tilts them to smoothly shift their central wavelength. Here we describe our development process based on rapid prototyping, iterative design, and mass production. This process has resulted in numerous improvements to the design of the DSLM from the initial pathfinder instrument, including changes to narrower bandpass filters and the addition of a suite of calibration filters for continuum light subtraction and sky line monitoring. Improvements have also been made to the electronics and hardware of the array, which improve tilting accuracy, rigidity and light baffling. Here we present laboratory and on-sky measurements from the deployment of the first bank of lenses in May 2022, and a progress report on the completion of the full array in early 2023.

We originally launched The Lipstick Matte & Fluid from Nee Make Up Milano. The packaging includes a liquid applicator. Thanks to the creamy formula made with water it is very easily spreadable. It keeps our lips hydrated and preserves their colour for many hours. It is also characterised by a pleasant fragrance slightly fruity but not intrusive. Another interesting thing is their ability to combine color, opacity and durability, for lips that will be flawless until the evening. On the other hand, their water-based formula makes them easily removable with a makeup remover or water micellar. We now have many more colours available from the Matte & Fluid collection. However, we are now launching The Lipstick Shiny & Fluid, available in 5 colours. This liquid lipstick has a gloss effect, is long lasting and lightweight. Colour and brightness blend perfectly on the lips, make up for a fresh and light, extreme and exceptional comfort seal. Texture enriched with a blend of butters including the mango, for a nourishing, anti-aging and smoothing finish. Directions: define the outline lips with Lip Pencil Miracle and proceed with the drafting of liquid lipstick with the applicator in this pack.

Paleoclimate Record Points Toward Potential Rapid Climate Changes
Patrick Lynch
NASA's Earth Science News Team
New research into the Earth's paleoclimate history by NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies director James E. Hansen suggests the potential for rapid climate changes this century, including multiple meters of sea level rise, if global warming is not abated.By looking at how the Earth's climate responded to past natural changes, Hansen sought insight into a fundamental question raised by ongoing human-caused climate change: "What is the dangerous level of global warming?" Some international leaders have suggested a goal of limiting warming to 2 degrees Celsius from pre-industrial times in order to avert catastrophic change. But Hansen said at a press briefing at a meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco on Tues, Dec. 6, that warming of 2 degrees Celsius would lead to drastic changes, such as significant ice sheet loss in Greenland and Antarctica.Based on Hansen's temperature analysis work at the Goddard Institute for Space Studies, the Earth's average global surface temperature has already risen .8 degrees Celsius since 1880, and is now warming at a rate of more than .1 degree Celsius every decade. This warming is largely driven by increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, particularly carbon dioxide, emitted by the burning of fossil fuels at power plants, in cars and in industry. At the current rate of fossil fuel burning, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will have doubled from pre-industrial times by the middle of this century. A doubling of carbon dioxide would cause an eventual warming of several degrees, Hansen said.In recent research, Hansen and co-author Makiko Sato, also of Goddard Institute for Space Studies, compared the climate of today, the Holocene, with previous similar "interglacial" epochs – periods when polar ice caps existed but the world was not dominated by glaciers. In studying cores drilled from both ice sheets and deep ocean sediments, Hansen found that global mean temperatures during the Eemian period, which began about 130,000 years ago and lasted about 15,000 years, were less than 1 degree Celsius warmer than today. If temperatures were to rise 2 degrees Celsius over pre-industrial times, global mean temperature would far exceed that of the Eemian, when sea level was four to six meters higher than today, Hansen said."The paleoclimate record reveals a more sensitive climate than thought, even as of a few years ago. Limiting human-caused warming to 2 degrees is not sufficient," Hansen said. "It would be a prescription for disaster."Hansen focused much of his new work on how the polar regions and in particular the ice sheets of Antarctica and Greenland will react to a warming world.Two degrees Celsius of warming would make Earth much warmer than during the Eemian, and would move Earth closer to Pliocene-like conditions, when sea level was in the range of 25 meters higher than today, Hansen said. In using Earth's climate history to learn more about the level of sensitivity that governs our planet's response to warming today, Hansen said the paleoclimate record suggests that every degree Celsius of global temperature rise will ultimately equate to 20 meters of sea level rise. However, that sea level increase due to ice sheet loss would be expected to occur over centuries, and large uncertainties remain in predicting how that ice loss would unfold.Hansen notes that ice sheet disintegration will not be a linear process. This non-linear deterioration has already been seen in vulnerable places such as Pine Island Glacier in West Antarctica, where the rate of ice mass loss has continued accelerating over the past decade. Data from NASA's Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite is already consistent with a rate of ice sheet mass loss in Greenland and West Antarctica that doubles every ten years. The GRACE record is too short to confirm this with great certainty; however, the trend in the past few years does not rule it out, Hansen said. This continued rate of ice loss could cause multiple meters of sea level rise by 2100, Hansen said.Ice and ocean sediment cores from the polar regions indicate that temperatures at the poles during previous epochs – when sea level was tens of meters higher – is not too far removed from the temperatures Earth could reach this century on a "business as usual" trajectory."We don’t have a substantial cushion between today's climate and dangerous warming," Hansen said. "Earth is poised to experience strong amplifying feedbacks in response to moderate additional global warming."Detailed considerations of a new warming target and how to get there are beyond the scope of this research, Hansen said. But this research is consistent with Hansen's earlier findings that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would need to be rolled back from about 390 parts per million in the atmosphere today to 350 parts per million in order to stabilize the climate in the long term. While leaders continue to discuss a framework for reducing emissions, global carbon dioxide emissions have remained stable or increased in recent years.Hansen and others noted that while the paleoclimate evidence paints a clear picture of what Earth's earlier climate looked like, but that using it to predict precisely how the climate might change on much smaller timescales in response to human-induced rather than natural climate change remains difficult. But, Hansen noted, the Earth system is already showing signs of responding, even in the cases of "slow feedbacks" such as ice sheet changes.The human-caused release of increased carbon dioxide into the atmosphere also presents climate scientists with something they've never seen in the 65 million year record of carbon dioxide levels – a drastic rate of increase that makes it difficult to predict how rapidly the Earth will respond. In periods when carbon dioxide has increased due to natural causes, the rate of increase averaged about .0001 parts per million per year – in other words, one hundred parts per million every million years. Fossil fuel burning is now causing carbon dioxide concentrations to increase at two parts per million per year."Humans have overwhelmed the natural, slow changes that occur on geologic timescales," Hansen said. | positive |
AS THE world tomorrow marks the centenary of the sinking of Titanic, Oxford author Robin Gardiner has released a new book that he says proves it is a sister ship that sits at the bottom of the North Atlantic.
The biggest ship of its kind, Titanic was billed ‘unsinkable’ by its owners White Star Line. But on April 15, 1912, it hit an iceberg and sank in the icy waters of the North Atlantic, with the loss of 1,517 lives However, according to Mr Gardiner, 64, the ship that sank was not Titanic at all – it was Olympic, her sister ship, in what was planned as one of the world’s greatest insurance frauds.
Mr Gardiner, 64, a plasterer and father-of-one from Barton, said: “My new book, The Great Titanic Conspiracy, has new, conclusive photographic and documentary evidence of the swap of Olympic and Titanic.
“This was collusion, conspiracy and cover-up on an unprecedented scale.
“The evidence is overwhelming; eyewitnesses themselves describe running along Titanic’s decks, but where they said there were promenades, there should have been cabins.
“And while survivors on B Deck described seeing lifeboats being lowered from above, there’s no way they would have seen that on Titanic – only on the ship Olympic.
“You only have to look at the ships’ specifications to see the ‘Titanic’ passengers were actually aboard Olympic.”
According to Mr Gardiner, the ‘real’ story starts with financier J P Morgan’s takeover of White Star and the Royal Navy’s investment in the company’s new liners as potential troop carriers.
He said: “Following the Agadir crisis in 1911, Morgan began to ship gold and other treasures back to the safe haven of the US.
“There was also pressure on White Star to make up the cost of the damage to Olympic, which had been damaged in a collision with HMS Hawke, but which the insurance company would not cover.
“Swapping the identities of Olympic and Titanic was also the opportunity for Morgan, with the collusion of the British government, to quietly ship £8m of gold to the US.
“But unbeknown to the government, the gold was spirited away.
“To the present day, the most common maritime insurance fraud involves changing identities of ships.
“But tragically the planned staging of the sinking of Titanic, whereby other ships from the company would be on hand to rescue all the passengers and crew, went disastrously wrong and more than 1,500 souls perished.”
Mr Gardiner even refutes that the ship hit an iceberg; “The passengers described feeling a ‘shudder’. But if that size ship, travelling at that speed had hit an iceberg of that size, the noise would have been huge and the impact would have hit everyone off their feet,” he said.
“I think White Star planned a small collision of some sort and then a straightforward ‘rescue’ of the passengers by ships waiting nearby. Unfortunately, the ship was steered hard left, instead of right and turned away from the rescue ships.
“It may also have hit a wreck or another ship. And most of the passengers didn’t stand a chance.”
Asked how people react to his views on Titanic, Mr Gardiner said: “I give regular talks and most people are fascinated, especially engineers who know how ships work.
“But this isn’t hidden information I am unearthing.
“You only have to read the inquiry notes – see how many people’s testimony was strangely ‘stopped’ and look at all the official paperwork – to see the ships were swapped.”
Mr Gardiner said the real Titanic sailed on as Olympic for the rest of her career, before being sent to the breaker’s yard in 1937.
He said: “I think all this celebration of the Titanic is a bit sick. I don’t think White Star planned to kill all those people.
“But they did die and Olympic should be left in peace, a the bottom of the North Atlantic as a grave.
“I am now working on an American-made documentary, which will completely lift the lid on what happened with Titanic, once and for all.
“I will prove the ships were swapped and this terrible accident was completely avoidable.”
The Great Titanic Conspiracy by Robin Gardiner is published by Ian Allan, priced £19.99. | positive |

It’s October, and that means it’s time to start preparing your Halloween one-shots! Whether you put the linguistically accurate apostrophe between the Es, or dismiss it as unnecessary pedantry, or only make the decision based upon whether or not spellcheck puts that horrible red line under it, this is the month where GMs have the excuse to add some undead creatures, horrible spells, and villains out for PC blood to their games!
Wait a second…
The fact of the matter is that most adventurers in D&D games face Halloween-appropriate monsters all the time. It almost doesn’t matter what game you play. Sci-fi games have their bug-eyed aliens and cyborg terrors, fantasy games have their sinister cults and pacts made with dark forces, and World of Darkness probably has something that’d be holiday appropriate if you really, really, really looked hard enough. It’s a common occurrence.
The one possible exception? Roleplaying games set in the “real world”, where your character isn’t too different from a standard person that you’d meet in real life. Games like that tend to focus more on surprising situations and dramatic confrontations. They can be intensely interesting, even without supernatural elements (I’ve seen a few wonderful sessions of the game Adventure! that would fall into this category, and while I’ve heard that the game Fiasco can get supernatural I’ve never actually seen it myself.) The thing is, though, real life has it’s own share of monsters, and the most common “real world” monster that would be appropriate would be the slasher killer. I’m not a fan of the genre myself, but Jason Voorhees from Friday The 13th and Mike Myers from Halloween have both left a solid impression on the horror movie marketplace.
That’s… that’s the wrong Mike Myers. That’s… actually, never mind.
Anyway, you might not want to go full-on slasher movie for a villain, and just adding pumpkins to your vampire lair might not be enough. If you really want to create a Halloween one-shot and make it something other than a silly break from the norm (not that there’s anything wrong with silliness while celebrating a holiday, mind you) then you may want to step up your game. It’s time to stop putting encounters together, and start telling a story and creating characters. How do you do that, though? I’ve got two ideas.
1) A Versatile Vocabulary
Note that I’m not saying “Big Vocabulary.” I’m sure you know all kinds of really nice words, and that’s great. Your players probably know them, too! That’s the fun thing about spoken languages: thanks to context clues, if you assume that your players are native speakers (or even fluent speakers) they can probably figure out what any given word means based on context cues alone. And piling on more words doesn’t help; the monstrous, slavering, quivering fangbeast of doom is probably less scary than the slavering fangbeast. And please, please avoid telling your players what emotions their characters are experiencing; there’s a time to do that, but it’s an incredibly rare thing. What I’m telling you to do here is to learn how to make your descriptions do more than one thing.
The podcast Writing Excuses once did an episode on making descriptions do more than one thing, and I recommend listening to it (it’s less than twenty minutes long, you’ve got the time.) The podcast as a whole has some great advice, and insightful comments, on how to use descriptions in ways that evoke emotions. Dan Wells (author of a number of horror books such as I Am Not A Serial Killer, among other things) points out that in horror, a lot of the descriptions use words that impart an “environmental” effect on the characters. Is the hallway narrow, or is it restraining? Is the ooze on the ground slippery, or does it make a player’s feet stick on the ground for just a moment with every step? Does the melting snow going down the back of your shirt slide down, or does it slither down? You don’t want to overdo this, but seasoning your talk with these sorts of descriptions will make the environment feel like its reaching out to grab your players.
I used an image from Penny Arcade’s video game series up above, a game called On The Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness. It’s a comedy game, and mostly an adventure story, but one of the surprises about it is that it’s actually a really well done Lovecraftian horror story. You laugh while you play, fighting your way through hobos and mimes, but the descriptions used in a lot of the story’s locations manage to evoke great emotions. I need to put a content warning on it for strong language and stronger violence (I’ve got all the overkills on all the characters on Insane mode in episodes one and two, there’s some definite violence there), but if you’re looking at a good example of how to use horrifying words, this is a prime candidate. (Plus, the game is very silly, so it’s a good model for a one-shot adventure that can be a scary while also being good fun.)
Adding this to the magical effects of the game can be useful if you want to make one magician’s magic seem different than another’s. Saying that a potent spell’s energy feels like it’s clinging to character’s clothing can make it seem menacing, as if there’s an additive effect to the magic (whether there is or not.) If the players approach a haunted idol or psychic prisoner, they might feel like they’re stepping “through” something as they get closer to their target, as if stepping through ever-denser waves of ambient power in the air. This kind of description needs no mechanical effect in your game… it truly is flavor text. You’re flavoring things with the text. The important thing is that the players feel like this is different (and through the magic of imagination, it *is* different.)
2) Evocative Enemies
When you make your enemies, avoid calling them by a specific monster name even if they’re unquestionably that kind of monster. Basically, figure out what makes this enemy monstrous before you even introduce them to the story. A true monster is a plague on its location, not just a creature that the locals don’t like. I use the image of Baron Alexander of Brennenburg from Amnesia: The Dark Descent because that game pulls off a clever trick with him: they make him a vampire.
Now, the game never calls him a vampire. He’s also never warded off by crosses or garlic or rushing water, and he’s not able to turn into a bat or wolf or swarm of insects. Instead, he seems to merely be a being who comes from… elsewhere. He’s also lived a long life. How does he do this? Well, he extracts a substance from the blood of his victims and alchemically uses it to prolong his life. Oh, and he teaches a person on the verge of insanity how to do his dirty work, and might be able to create monsters (monsters who used to be people and might regret their current state of life.)
Seriously, try to tell me that this guy’s not a vampire.
The thing is, he’s never called “undead” and the phrase “vampire” is never used in conjunction with him. Instead, the writers have him behave in a way that is definitely “vampiric”, literally and metaphorically draining the life of others to extend his own while transforming other people into lesser-monsters that do his bidding. The game basically gives this person a suite of crimes in his history that bring to mind the horrors of vampirism without allowing the mental defenses that we as players have for the word “vampire.”
Another example, strangely enough, is almost the opposite: go watch The Mummy. The one with Boris Karloff, not Brendan Fraser. The Mummy in this film doesn’t really behave as a mummy might, at least not as we imagine mummies. He’s not a slowly wandering zombie wrapped in rags. Instead, he’s an intelligent, plotting mastermind who dresses like other people, learns English, and begins manipulating archaeologists in an effort to connect to his long-lost love. In some ways, Boris Karloff manages to make The Mummy a frightening enemy by being so very human; like a vampire, he’s trying to steal another’s life, but he’s doing it to restore someone he loves, not to extend his own life. His own life is, apparently, already well tended to.
The Karloff Gambit here is awesome, but I don’t recommend it for a one-shot. That kind of build-up would likely take a few sessions to establish. Still, if you’re okay with it being more than a one-shot and having your Halloween night stretch into November, the Karloff Gambit might well work out for you.
Now that we’ve established my two concepts, don’t forget the most important one: have fun! You’re not looking at all this dusty English-class info so that you can run a dull horror story. Halloween is “about” a lot of things, but when people celebrate it they want to dress up and act a bit. Your bad Transylvanian accent or maniacal cackle is primed to shine. If you have to choose between imitating the Wicked Witch of the West and finding a good way to describe how the flickering torch-light is making the shadows reach across the floor toward the players… ignore the torches for now, and laugh like the crazy villain you are. Say “Children of the Night” if you get the chance while playing a vampire. Have your mad scientist monologue about how everything is being done in the name of SCIENCE! Play it up, and make the characters wonder why the world doesn’t quite look this awesome every session.
And, hey, some pumpkin-spice flavored cookies and tootsie rolls handed out before, during, or after the session can help people to be in a good mood too. That’s all for this week’s Magical Mondays! I’ll try to have a more concrete example for the d20 enthusiasts next week. Later!

Close Reads Jan 13, 2015 It Made Me Feel Like More Than One Person
Daniel Rozin, Mirrors Mirror, 2008. Photo courtesy bitforms gallery nyc.
Part I
I’d like to talk about a poem written by someone I consider a great living poet. It’s the title poem in the eponymous collection. Oh, no; that’s very ambiguous. The poem and the book have the same name, like a son and his father. Better? Also, it’s the ultimate poem in the collection. Which is to say the last, which is also in the sense of “the best or most extreme example.” I say this because of the number of frissons it gave me compared with those I experienced in any of the preceding poems. There are many poems in this collection that made me shiver, but I won’t discuss them all. They made me feel vulnerable; they were very good poems—good enough that I only really need to talk about one of them. I’m not sure if this particular poem had more of an effect because I read it last. Time will tell.
Favoring full disclosure, I will tell you that I once sat behind the poet and watched his hand touch the back of a woman’s neck. At the time I didn’t know who he was. All I knew was that I was watching a man do my favorite thing that a man does. I don’t know if any of this influences the way I read the poem, but in the end I very much like and want to understand his strange and arrested poetic voice, and admittedly I do look to the Neck Event for help. That casual, deliberate sensuality seems so incongruous alongside the abrupt language he uses (to his distinct advantage); but reality, like voice, is a mask on language. Thus I think back on it unfairly, because other readers of this poem and all the rest have perhaps never seen the author’s hand caress any part of another person’s body. If that gave me an undue head start on the shivers, I apologize. I know that modern readers do sometimes like to take every facet of an artist into account before allowing for any shred of enjoyment.
Reader, insists the poem, you and I, in desolate monotony, make the choice to go on living with the knowledge of going on living.
The poem, for which I was well primed, exhorts its reader to raise herself to a painful and demanding echelon of awareness and of empathy and sensitivity. It’s because this request is buried between rich layers of heartbreaking inclusion and description that it tears at the mind. Reader, insists the poem, you and I, in desolate monotony, make the choice to go on living with the knowledge of going on living; it is a choice that has been made right after the decision became a choice. Suddenly I was thinking of a place I drive past often called the Valley TMJ Center. It has something to do with treating jaws that don’t perform the way a person would want them to. Suddenly I was imagining a woman, any woman, in that place. She has to go there on the regular to keep something up that I take for granted. Suddenly I had an awareness of my jaw, which now took conscious effort to hold up, whereas in all my hundreds of thousands of previous hours of life it had kept itself in place without me having to do a thing. All the work had gone on blissfully before, in the basal ganglia or the medulla oblongata—I don’t know which, and won’t look it up right now, but may later.
How does it feel to have to maintain the body? I’ve had an injury, a bad one at that, but never a chronic administrative concern that required routine maintenance, and certainly not something as crucial as a jaw, unless I am to count the existential awareness provoked by the poem. But I have to count that. I, along with the great poet who described it to me, had wandered unsuspecting into the wet concrete knowledge of my Möbius strip of choices in order to continue living. And also to remember, a little bit playfully, tongue probing eagerly for cheek, the several times I had considered choosing not to.
But then, out of nowhere, my daughter—who is very small indeed—walked by with a doll and told me that she loved me, and that she was preparing to throw a party for me upstairs, that she had another doll who could be mine for the duration of the party, and then I was aware of only happiness and delight. Our house has just one floor.
All this is to say that before today I have often considered Death, but always seen a man dying in my mind’s eye. Never a woman. I had never imagined the inside of a jaw, either, mine or anyone else’s. Never thought of the woman touched on the neck by the famous poet, only the poet himself. There she is. I see her now, delicate: the sloped neck, the soft edge of her bobbed hair, the cheekbone. There is something chronic about her, and me, and everyone else, whether or not it needs attending. It goes on and on. My daughter’s hand touches my arm below the sleeve like an animal’s careful breath, and away I go.
Part II
I had to go to reddit to satisfy my curiosity about what part of my brain holds my jaw in place and keeps my head from rolling around on my neck. Explain it to me like I’m five years old, I told the minds at the Explain Like I’m Five subreddit; how does it work? “There are areas (nuclei) of your brain that are responsible for what’s called subconscious somatic motor control,” says user armadilloeater . “You can override all of these nuclei, but when you're not paying attention, they take control. Imagine,” armadilloeater continues, “having to consciously think about breathing.” I don’t want to, but I do, in and out, in and out, the breath jockeying around in my throat for attention. “The nucleus that you specifically asked about is the Red Nucleus, which controls involuntary muscle tone, which ensures that your muscles are always supporting you, even if you aren't consciously thinking about them.”
Under the watchful eye of a nucleus in the rostral midbrain, my muscles are always supporting me, even if I am not consciously thinking about them. I’ve never given much thought to my muscles before; I’m open to the possibility of anthropomorphizing them. They assume the form of mild psychiatrists, their faces impossible to study. They look at me with encouragement.
Under the watchful eye of a nucleus in the rostral midbrain, my muscles are always supporting me, even if I am not consciously thinking about them.
I go back to the poem and read it again. The poet says goodbye to his readers near the beginning. This brazen gesture effects profound relaxation. As the speaker communes through the text, the poem enfolds the reader like an old docent brings guests into a museum, a place to see everything from inviolate truth to the creation of a consciousness to an egg to an animal that stands in the snow.
I come with the docent to the poem but not to look at any of this. I’m here to look at the mind that creates the moments that live in the decision, to see the mind take each moment and turn it, like a card from nowhere, into a magic number for awareness. Was this your card? I’m already asking to see the sleight of hand again, and I won’t have to look at the card to know it was my number.
My favorite word in the poem was cough. There is a dead pixel on my screen that was never there before. The Red Nucleus? It sounds like a splinter cell of soldiers-cum-biologists.
This is the only poem I can remember that has made me feel like more than one person. When a friend recommended it to me, he said, “I wonder what it feels like to write something like that.” I’m thinking about a radio pausing for a station identification that fails to come across the band, of a completely nascent mind-state, a creative space with form and color emerging, like Proust’s description of waking up:
not knowing where I was, I could not even be sure at first who I was; I had only the most rudimentary sense of existence, such as may lurk and flicker in the depths of an animal’s consciousness . . . but then the memory . . . would come like a rope let down from heaven to draw me up out of the abyss of not-being, from which I could never have escaped by myself: in a flash I would traverse centuries of civilization, and out of a blurred glimpse of oil-lamps, then of shirts with turned-down collars, would gradually piece together the original components of my ego.
It’s helpful, when you enjoy something, to admit what you don’t like about it. In another light, this poem takes on a tacky feeling, of too much stuck on. Where some, like me, see a will bent toward complete admission into the narrow space where language moans as soon as it is touched, still others will see, at best, an exercise; at worst, a shopping list.
But being me, the only ego I can be at this time, my favorite poetry prompt is “Write a poem that is about everything.” Having no way to know whether the author with his capable hand set out to do that, I am confident that he did write a poem about the everything that was, at that dread and wonderful moment, everything. It scales up its own exuberant universe, a modern rococo worth waking up in many times again. In an era of language characterized by so much starved precision, this poem, “Come on All You Ghosts,” by Matthew Zapruder, overflows its every word into the reader’s eager ear. | positive |

Hillary Clinton appeared to stumble or nearly miss a step as she boarded her campaign plane on Thursday.
Clinton was flying to a rally in Winston Salem, North Carolina when she boarded in rainy weather.
From the time she departed her motorcade van, which was positioned right at the bottom of the stairs, all the way to the top of the steps, she appeared to be wobbly and unsteady, and laboring during the trek.
Maybe it was because she had the extra — arduous — task of carrying an umbrella?
Live Satellite News, which posted the video, noted she was “mumbling to herself.”
Yesterday, she required assistance going up one step onto a riser to greet supporters in Lake Worth, Florida.
She needed assistance to get onto it as she could be seen reaching her hand out for a boost or some added steadiness.
An aide extended his hand and Clinton held on tightly as she made her way up the 18 inches.
He could be seen standing behind her and at one point reached out to grab her waist, perhaps thinking she was about to fall. | positive |
Some 2,600 police and army operatives swept through a Brazilian slum on Sunday, seizing 11 tons of marijuana and "a small arsenal" of weapons—including a missile—from a notorious drug gang. They also found a Justin Bieber mural.
Pezao, whom The Guardian describes as "one of the area's top traffickers," is apparently also one of the area's top Justin Bieber fans. Brazilian news outlet R7 published the above photo, as well as several others documenting the narcos' "mansions." They'll need to update for Bieber's new haircut, obviously.
The "unprecedented" operation, which focused on the notorious 70,000-resident Complexo do Alemao, took place at 8 a.m. By 9:30 a.m. it had been "conquered," (that's what the police said, at least), and in the afternoon the government troops "hoisted the country's green and yellow flag." The hope was to weaken the Red Command drug gang and capture some of its notorious members—like Zeu, the drug lord behind the samurai-sword murder of Brazilian journalist Tim Lopes. It's unlikely to be the last raid, though:
The head of Rio's drug squad, Marcus Vinicius Braga, described the operation as "worryingly calm" and suggested further confrontations were likely. "We are winning, but we haven't won yet," he said.

The Dragons already have become the first school in the state to win the CIF Open Division state title for both the girls and the boys and they’ve been among the state’s very best on the boys side for perhaps 50 years. But did you know that O’Dowd actually has had more players go on to start in the NFL than it has had players go on to the NBA? Langston Walker and Eric Bjornson received golden footballs that were given to O’Dowd earlier this year in celebration of the 50th Super Bowl. They both played in the game. Photo: bishopodowd.org. Although many Dragons have starred in college and current Cal standout Ivan Rabb seems NBA-bound very soon, former NBA head coach Brian Shaw and Guy Williams are the only two from the school who’ve played in the NBA. On the NFL side, it’s a much longer list that includes linebacker Hardy Nickerson, linebacker Kirk Morrison, tight end Eric Bjornson, offensive tackle Langston Walker and offensive tackle Tarik Glenn. Perhaps the most surprising element of the O’Dowd football story is that it only began in 1970. That is more than 15 years after the school itself started and after it started winning 30 games a season in basketball. In the first seasons, the Dragons played a small school schedule before eventually settling into a Catholic Athletic League lineup that included other similar East Bay parochial schools such as St. Mary’s of Berkeley, Moreau of Hayward, Salesian of Richmond and De La Salle of Concord. Under head coach Paul Perenon, who led the program from 1985 to 2009 and won more than 200 games, O’Dowd achieved its most success, especially in the late 1990s. The Dragons followed up a 10-1 season in 1996 by going 12-0-1 in 1997 and winning the school’s first CIF North Coast Section title with a 28-3 victory over Amador Valley of Pleasanton in the NCS 3A Division final. They were hardly done. O’Dowd repeated as an NCS champ in 1998 (this time in the reformatted East Bay 2A Division) by blanking Clayton Valley of Concord 10-0 and then in 1999 did not get denied for a three-peat until a 20-9 loss in the title game to Ygnacio Valley of Concord. Nickerson, the former NFL player whose son (Hardy Nickerson Jr.) was starring at linebacker at the school at the same time, took over as head coach for the 2010 season. He went four seasons until two seasons ago when former NFL running back and 1990 Mr. Football State Player of the Year Napoleon Kaufman became head coach. Kaufman, however, did not go to O’Dowd. He’s from Lompoc in Southern California. Although big-time linebacker Camilo Eifler has graduated and is now at Washington, Kaufman and the Dragons seem to have the players to make a run at a NCS title. Preseason all-state offensive tackle Alijah Vera-Tucker (6-5, 290), Cal-bound WR/DB Je’quari Godfrey, emerging TE/DE Jordan Jackson (6-3, 230) and TE Cooper Hagmaier (6-6, 215) are among the team’s returning standouts. Here are some other Bishop O’Dowd football records that the school has been sent courtesy of this archive initiative: WIN-LOSS RECORDS FOR EACH DECADE 1970s: 36-49-4 1980s: 52-45-0 (not including forfeits) 1990s: 99-17-1 (not including default) 2000s: 75-41-1 2010s: 40-29 (not including default) REPORTED ALL-TIME RECORD HEADING INTO 2016 SEASON: 302 WINS, 181 LOSSES, 6 TIES* 62.4 ALL-TIME WINNING PERCENTAGE (Based on half-win, half-loss for tie) *Note: May be three or four missing results from 1980 season. Counting forfeits/defaults, record for 1980s would be 50-47-0, record for 1990s would be 100-17-1, record for 2010s would be 41-29 and all-time would be 302-182-6.

Reply Equinox271 Posted September 1, 2016 at 4:34 pm | Permalink Correction Auroa: Hardy Nickerson the son did play at Bishop O’Dowd he was in the class of 2012, I watched him play while he was there at the school. Mark stated it was Hardy Nickerson Jr. His dad was the head coach. Reply Equinox271 Posted September 1, 2016 at 4:35 pm | Permalink Correction on my part. I misspelled Aurora..my apology. 🙂 Reply Mark Tennis Posted September 2, 2016 at 11:20 am | Permalink Hardy Nickerson did go to Cal and son did go to O’Dowd but correction should be that he is from Verbum Dei. Sorry about that. Reply Jason Hong Posted September 12, 2016 at 6:27 pm | Permalink Cooper Hagmaier is starting left Defensive End and Tight End. He is off to a great start and should be on everyone’s radar. Reply Melvin Okeith Posted December 26, 2017 at 11:44 am | Permalink I’m a McClymonds, Oakland, Ca. supporter, but I can’t seem to get much information on them and the rest of the Oakland Public Schools!!!!! Is there a problem with their information scoured? Reply Mark Tennis Posted December 27, 2017 at 2:50 pm | Permalink Well, there’s no Oakland Section records that have been kept, if that’s what you’re asking. We have the same index cards with football scores for Oakland public schools that we have for O’Dowd, but O’Dowd paid us a fee to digitize those scores and then give them to the school. Wish we could just give those to all schools that need them, but it takes time to input everything. Reply Max Fulmer Posted October 9, 2018 at 1:45 pm | Permalink I played at O’Dowd from 98-01, where can I find the game by game scores/season records? Reply Mark Tennis Posted October 10, 2018 at 4:59 pm | Permalink We did all of them and turned them into the school, which paid a fee for the work. We didn’t post them for that reason. If you have a score you want looked up or have a question, email me [email protected] and I can answer. Reply Post a Comment Click here to cancel reply. Your email is never published nor shared.

On January 31st 2017, we experienced a major service outage for one of our products, the online service GitLab.com. The outage was caused by an accidental removal of data from our primary database server.
This incident caused the GitLab.com service to be unavailable for many hours. We also lost some production data that we were eventually unable to recover. Specifically, we lost modifications to database data such as projects, comments, user accounts, issues and snippets, that took place between 17:20 and 00:00 UTC on January 31. Our best estimate is that it affected roughly 5,000 projects, 5,000 comments and 700 new user accounts. Code repositories or wikis hosted on GitLab.com were unavailable during the outage, but were not affected by the data loss. GitLab Enterprise customers, GitHost customers, and self-hosted GitLab CE users were not affected by the outage, or the data loss.
Losing production data is unacceptable. To ensure this does not happen again we're working on multiple improvements to our operations & recovery procedures for GitLab.com. In this article we'll look at what went wrong, what we did to recover, and what we'll do to prevent this from happening in the future.
To the GitLab.com users whose data we lost and to the people affected by the outage: we're sorry. I apologize personally, as GitLab's CEO, and on behalf of everyone at GitLab.
Database setup
GitLab.com currently uses a single primary and a single secondary in hot-standby mode. The standby is only used for failover purposes. In this setup a single database has to handle all the load, which is not ideal. The primary's hostname is db1.cluster.gitlab.com , while the secondary's hostname is db2.cluster.gitlab.com .
In the past we've had various other issues with this particular setup due to db1.cluster.gitlab.com being a single point of failure. For example:

On January 31st an engineer started setting up multiple PostgreSQL servers in our staging environment. The plan was to try out pgpool-II to see if it would reduce the load on our database by load balancing queries between the available hosts. Here is the issue for that plan: infrastructure#259.
± 17:20 UTC: prior to starting this work, our engineer took an LVM snapshot of the production database and loaded this into the staging environment. This was necessary to ensure the staging database was up to date, allowing for more accurate load testing. This procedure normally happens automatically once every 24 hours (at 01:00 UTC), but they wanted a more up to date copy of the database.
± 19:00 UTC: GitLab.com starts experiencing an increase in database load due to what we suspect was spam. In the week leading up to this event GitLab.com had been experiencing similar problems, but not this severe. One of the problems this load caused was that many users were not able to post comments on issues and merge requests. Getting the load under control took several hours.
We would later find out that part of the load was caused by a background job trying to remove a GitLab employee and their associated data. This was the result of their account being flagged for abuse and accidentally scheduled for removal. More information regarding this particular problem can be found in the issue "Removal of users by spam should not hard delete".
± 23:00 UTC: Due to the increased load, our PostgreSQL secondary's replication process started to lag behind. The replication failed as WAL segments needed by the secondary were already removed from the primary. As GitLab.com was not using WAL archiving, the secondary had to be re-synchronised manually. This involves removing the existing data directory on the secondary, and running pg_basebackup to copy over the database from the primary to the secondary.
One of the engineers went to the secondary and wiped the data directory, then ran pg_basebackup . Unfortunately pg_basebackup would hang, producing no meaningful output, despite the --verbose option being set. After a few tries pg_basebackup mentioned that it could not connect due to the master not having enough available replication connections (as controlled by the max_wal_senders option).
To resolve this our engineers decided to temporarily increase max_wal_senders from the default value of 3 to 32 . When applying the settings, PostgreSQL refused to restart, claiming too many semaphores were being created. This can happen when, for example, max_connections is set too high. In our case this was set to 8000 . Such a value is way too high, yet it had been applied almost a year ago and was working fine until that point. To resolve this the setting's value was reduced to 2000 , resulting in PostgreSQL restarting without issues.
Unfortunately this did not resolve the problem of pg_basebackup not starting replication immediately. One of the engineers decided to run it with strace to see what it was blocking on. strace showed that pg_basebackup was hanging in a poll call, but that did not provide any other meaningful information that might have explained why.
± 23:30 UTC: one of the engineers thinks that perhaps pg_basebackup created some files in the PostgreSQL data directory of the secondary during the previous attempts to run it. While normally pg_basebackup prints an error when this is the case, the engineer in question wasn't too sure what was going on. It would later be revealed by another engineer (who wasn't around at the time) that this is normal behaviour: pg_basebackup will wait for the primary to start sending over replication data and it will sit and wait silently until that time. Unfortunately this was not clearly documented in our engineering runbooks nor in the official pg_basebackup document.
Trying to restore the replication process, an engineer proceeds to wipe the PostgreSQL database directory, errantly thinking they were doing so on the secondary. Unfortunately this process was executed on the primary instead. The engineer terminated the process a second or two after noticing their mistake, but at this point around 300 GB of data had already been removed.
Hoping they could restore the database the engineers involved went to look for the database backups, and asked for help on Slack. Unfortunately the process of both finding and using backups failed completely.
Broken recovery procedures
This brings us to the recovery procedures. Normally in an event like this, one should be able to restore a database in relatively little time using a recent backup, though some form of data loss can not always be prevented. For GitLab.com we have the following procedures in place:
Every 24 hours a backup is generated using pg_dump , this backup is uploaded to Amazon S3. Old backups are automatically removed after some time. Every 24 hours we generate an LVM snapshot of the disk storing the production database data. This snapshot is then loaded into the staging environment, allowing us to more safely test changes without impacting our production environment. Direct access to the staging database is restricted, similar to our production database. For various servers (e.g. the NFS servers storing Git data) we use Azure disk snapshots. These snapshots are taken once per 24 hours. Replication between PostgreSQL hosts, primarily used for failover purposes and not for disaster recovery.
At this point the replication process was broken and data had already been wiped from both the primary and secondary, meaning we could not restore from either host.
Database backups using pg_dump
When we went to look for the pg_dump backups we found out they were not there. The S3 bucket was empty, and there was no recent backup to be found anywhere. Upon closer inspection we found out that the backup procedure was using pg_dump 9.2, while our database is running PostgreSQL 9.6 (for Postgres, 9.x releases are considered major). A difference in major versions results in pg_dump producing an error, terminating the backup procedure.
The difference is the result of how our Omnibus package works. We currently support both PostgreSQL 9.2 and 9.6, allowing users to upgrade (either manually or using commands provided by the package). To determine the correct version to use the Omnibus package looks at the PostgreSQL version of the database cluster (as determined by $PGDIR/PG_VERSION , with $PGDIR being the path to the data directory). When PostgreSQL 9.6 is detected Omnibus ensures all binaries use PostgreSQL 9.6, otherwise it defaults to PostgreSQL 9.2.
The pg_dump procedure was executed on a regular application server, not the database server. As a result there is no PostgreSQL data directory present on these servers, thus Omnibus defaults to PostgreSQL 9.2. This in turn resulted in pg_dump terminating with an error.
While notifications are enabled for any cronjobs that error, these notifications are sent by email. For GitLab.com we use DMARC. Unfortunately DMARC was not enabled for the cronjob emails, resulting in them being rejected by the receiver. This means we were never aware of the backups failing, until it was too late.
Azure disk snapshots
Azure disk snapshots are used to generate a snapshot of an entire disk. These snapshots don't make it easy to restore individual chunks of data (e.g. a lost user account), though it's possible. The primary purpose is to restore entire disks in case of disk failure.
In Azure a snapshot belongs to a storage account, and a storage account in turn is linked to one or more hosts. Each storage account has a limit of roughly 30 TB. When restoring a snapshot using a host in the same storage account, the procedure usually completes very quickly. However, when using a host in a different storage account the procedure can take hours if not days to complete. For example, in one such case it took over a week to restore a snapshot. As a result we try not to rely on this system too much.
While enabled for the NFS servers, these snapshots were not enabled for any of the database servers as we assumed that our other backup procedures were sufficient enough.
LVM snapshots
The LVM snapshots are primarily used to easily copy data from our production environment to our staging environment. While this process was working as intended, the produced snapshots are not really meant to be used for disaster recovery. At the time of the outage we had two snapshots available:
A snapshot created for our staging environment every 24 hours, almost 24 hours before the outage happened. A snapshot created manually by one of the engineers roughly 6 hours before the outage.
When we generate a snapshot the following steps are taken:
Generate a snapshot of production. Copy the snapshot to staging. Create a new disk using this snapshot. Remove all webhooks from the resulting database, to prevent them from being triggered by accident.
Recovering GitLab.com
To recover GitLab.com we decided to use the LVM snapshot created 6 hours before the outage, as it was our only option to reduce data loss as much as possible (the alternative was to lose almost 24 hours of data). This process would involve the following steps:
Copy the existing staging database to production, which would not contain any webhooks. In parallel, copy the snapshot used to set up the database as this snapshot might still contain the webhooks (we weren't entirely sure). Set up a production database using the snapshot from step 1. Set up a separate database using the snapshot from step 2. Restore webhooks using the database set up in the previous step. Increment all database sequences by 100,000 so one can't re-use IDs that might have been used before the outage. Gradually re-enable GitLab.com.
For our staging environment we were using Azure classic, without Premium Storage. This is primarily done to save costs as premium storage is quite expensive. As a result the disks are very slow, resulting in them being the main bottleneck in the restoration process. Because LVM snapshots are stored on the hosts they are taken for we had two options to restore data:
Copy over the LVM snapshot Copy over the PostgreSQL data directory
In both cases the amount of data to copy would be roughly the same. Since copying over and restoring the data directory would be easier we decided to go with this solution.
Copying the data from the staging to the production host took around 18 hours. These disks are network disks and are throttled to a really low number (around 60Mbps), there is no way to move from cheap storage to premium, so this was the performance we would get out of it. There was no network or processor bottleneck, the bottleneck was in the drives. Once copied we were able to restore the database (including webhooks) to the state it was at January 31st, 17:20 UTC.
On February 1st at 17:00 UTC we managed to restore the GitLab.com database without webhooks. Restoring webhooks was done by creating a separate staging database using the LVM snapshot, but without triggering the removal of webhooks. This allowed us to generate a SQL dump of the table and import this into the restored GitLab.com database.
Around 18:00 UTC we finished the final restoration procedures such as restoring the webhooks and confirming everything was operating as expected.
Publication of the outage
In the spirit of transparency we kept track of progress and notes in a publicly visible Google document. We also streamed the recovery procedure on YouTube, with a peak viewer count of around 5000 (resulting in the stream being the #2 live stream on YouTube for several hours). The stream was used to give our users live updates about the recovery procedure. Finally we used Twitter (https://twitter.com/gitlabstatus) to inform those that might not be watching the stream.
The document in question was initially private to GitLab employees and contained name of the engineer who accidentally removed the data. While the name was added by the engineer themselves (and they had no problem with this being public), we will redact names in future cases as other engineers may not be comfortable with their name being published.
Data loss impact
Database data such as projects, issues, snippets, etc. created between January 31st 17:20 UTC and 23:30 UTC has been lost. Git repositories and Wikis were not removed as they are stored separately.
It's hard to estimate how much data has been lost exactly, but we estimate we have lost at least 5000 projects, 5000 comments, and roughly 700 users. This only affected users of GitLab.com, self-hosted instances or GitHost instances were not affected.
Impact on GitLab itself
Since GitLab uses GitLab.com to develop GitLab the outage meant that for some it was harder to get work done. Most developers could continue working using their local Git repositories, but creating issues and such had to be delayed. To publish the blog post "GitLab.com Database Incident" we used a private GitLab instance we normally use for private/sensitive workflows (e.g. security releases). This allowed us to build and deploy a new version of the website while GitLab.com was unavailable.
We also have a public monitoring website located at https://dashboards.gitlab.com/. Unfortunately the current setup for this website was not able to handle the load produced by users using this service during the outage. Fortunately our internal monitoring systems (which dashboards.gitlab.com is based on) were not affected.
Root cause analysis
To analyse the root cause of these problems we'll use a technique called "The 5 Whys". We'll break up the incident into 2 main problems: GitLab.com being down, and it taking a long time to restore GitLab.com.
Problem 1: GitLab.com was down for about 18 hours.
Why was GitLab.com down? - The database directory of the primary database was removed by accident, instead of removing the database directory of the secondary. Why was the database directory removed? - Database replication stopped, requiring the secondary to be reset/rebuilt. This in turn requires that the PostgreSQL data directory is empty. Restoring this required manual work as this was not automated, nor was it documented properly. Why did replication stop? - A spike in database load caused the database replication process to stop. This was due to the primary removing WAL segments before the secondary could replicate them. Why did the database load increase? - This was caused by two events happening at the same time: an increase in spam, and a process trying to remove a GitLab employee and their associated data. Why was a GitLab employee scheduled for removal? - The employee was reported for abuse by a troll. The current system used for responding to abuse reports makes it too easy to overlook the details of those reported. As a result the employee was accidentally scheduled for removal.
Problem 2: restoring GitLab.com took over 18 hours.
Why did restoring GitLab.com take so long? - GitLab.com had to be restored using a copy of the staging database. This was hosted on slower Azure VMs in a different region. Why was the staging database needed for restoring GitLab.com? - Azure disk snapshots were not enabled for the database servers, and the periodic database backups using pg_dump were not working. Why could we not fail over to the secondary database host? - The secondary database's data was wiped as part of restoring database replication. As such it could not be used for disaster recovery. Why could we not use the standard backup procedure? - The standard backup procedure uses pg_dump to perform a logical backup of the database. This procedure failed silently because it was using PostgreSQL 9.2, while GitLab.com runs on PostgreSQL 9.6. Why did the backup procedure fail silently? - Notifications were sent upon failure, but because of the Emails being rejected there was no indication of failure. The sender was an automated process with no other means to report any errors. Why were the Emails rejected? - Emails were rejected by the receiving mail server due to the Emails not being signed using DMARC. Why were Azure disk snapshots not enabled? - We assumed our other backup procedures were sufficient. Furthermore, restoring these snapshots can take days. Why was the backup procedure not tested on a regular basis? - Because there was no ownership, as a result nobody was responsible for testing this procedure.
Improving recovery procedures
We are currently working on fixing and improving our various recovery procedures. Work is split across the following issues:
We are also working on setting up multiple secondaries and balancing the load amongst these hosts. More information on this can be found at:
Our main focus is to improve disaster recovery, and making it more obvious as to what host you're using; instead of preventing production engineers from running certain commands. For example, one could alias rm to something safer but in doing so would only protect themselves against accidentally running rm -rf /important-data , not against disk corruption or any of the many other ways you can lose data.
An ideal environment is one in which you can make mistakes but easily and quickly recover from them with minimal to no impact. This in turn requires you to be able to perform these procedures on a regular basis, and make it easy to test and roll back any changes. For example, we are in the process of setting up procedures that allow developers to test their database migrations. More information on this can be found in the issue "Tool for executing and reverting Rails migrations on staging".
We're also looking into ways to build better recovery procedures for the entire GitLab.com infrastructure, and not just the database; and to ensure there is ownership of these procedures. The issue for this is "Disaster recovery for everything that is not the database".
Monitoring wise we also started working on a public backup monitoring dashboard, which can be found at https://dashboards.gitlab.com/dashboard/db/postgresql-backups. Currently this dashboard only contains data of our pg_dump backup procedure, but we aim to add more data over time.
One might notice that at the moment our pg_dump backups are 3 days old. We perform these backups on a secondary as pg_dump can put quite a bit of pressure on a database. Since we are in the process of rebuilding our secondaries the pg_dump backup procedure is suspended for the time being. Fear not however, as LVM snapshots are now taken every hour instead of once per 24 hours. Enabling Azure disk snapshots is something we're still looking into.
Finally, we're looking into improving our abuse reporting and response system. More information regarding this can be found in the issue "Removal of users by spam should not hard delete".
If you think there are additional measures we can take to prevent incidents like this please let us know in the comments.
Troubleshooting FAQ
Some of my merge requests are shown as being open, but their commits have already been merged into the default branch. How can I resolve this?
Pushing to the default branch will automatically update the merge request so that it's aware of there not being any differences between the source and target branch. At this point you can safely close the merge request.
My merge request has not yet been merged, and I am not seeing my changes. How can I resolve this?
There are 3 options to resolve this:
Close the MR and create a new one Push new changes to the merge request's source branch Rebase/amend, and force push to the merge request's source branch
Go to your project, then "Pipelines", "New Pipeline", use "master" as the branch, then create the pipeline. This will create and start a new pipeline using your master branch, which should result in your website being updated.
My Pipelines were not executed
Most likely they were, but the database is not aware of this. To solve this, create a new pipeline using the right branch and run it.
Some commits are not showing up
Pushing new commits should automatically solve this. Alternatively you can try force pushing to the target branch.
I created a project after 17:20 UTC and it shows up, but my issues are gone. What happened?
Project details are stored in the database. This meant that this data was lost for projects created after 17:20. We ran a procedure to restore these projects based on their Git repositories that were still stored in our NFS cluster. This procedure however was only able to restore projects in their most basic form, without associated data such as issues and merge requests. | positive |
Spring season time, and stupid 1st of April being the first Wednesday of the month. This is rebellion, and I shall post this on a Sunday instead. You can’t make me post on the usual day of the week, because I am too lazy to do so. I’m still deciding what to include for those OSTs that are bundled into the bd volumes/box themselves, since you guys probably aren’t interested in the purchase outlet for those bd volumes anyway. Please let me know what other info you would like me to cover instead.
