The Del Monte generation wises up
Opinion: Columns
If you are 40- or 50-something like me, you are part of the Del Monte Generation. We are the ones who were raised on anything and everything that came in a metal can. We immediately follow the generation of "Baby Boomers" but largely without name, until now.
Unwittingly, or perhaps by evil master plan, the Boomers effectively dumbed the Del Montes down to the point where we cannot govern ourselves. I am convinced that they poisoned us with metal from all those cans, and now continue to live large at our expense.
Time and again, like fools, we local Del Montes approved property tax increases that we could not afford. On a state level, we elected enough lunatics to render Illinois nearly bankrupt. California follows close behind and the city of Detroit is now officially "full goose" bankrupt. Nationally, we allowed colleges to raise tuition rates to levels that have us drawing prematurely from our retirement funds to make ends meet. Many of us do not have proper health care.
My highly unscientific research reveals the root cause of our plight. It's not merely a problem of local political parties or the larger picture of Democrats versus Republicans. It is molybendenum, aluminum, titanium and a host of other metals. Iron and zinc are essential nutrients in trace quantities. The Boomers, however, retarded our mental development during formative years with ferrous fury.
Think about it. You grew up eating corn, beans, peas, asparagus and even meat (Spam, ham and others) that came in a can. You never knew fresh fruit because all your peaches and pears came in a can. For lunch, Boomers fed you Spaghettio's, which came in a can. You occasionally had a glass of milk. More often, a Boomer served you a "Hi-C" chaser that came from a large can. Good Lord, the Boomers even loaded us with "Pez," wrapped in aluminum, until we put it in silly plastic dispensers. The Boomers nodded ascent when we later got into "Heavy Metal" like, well, Metallica. No wonder we don't know what we're doing.
I'm thinking this is an evil master plan because the Boomers keep living large. They have their pensions and other retirement sources. They have Medicare. They have part-time jobs to supplement these perks so they can travel to Europe, consume copious amounts of Viagra, play golf, go to movies and eat at restaurants for reduced "senior" rates.
Using the lyrics from someone Boomers might understand, I can only say, "No More Mr. Nice Guy." We're on to you.
If you want to keep working, put your pension or social security check back into the general welfare funds. A lot of us "lazy" Del Montes need the money and your jobs, not for cocktails on the 19th hole but to pay tuition, rent, insurance bills. Stand in line with the rest of us, and pay full fare for a meal at Red Lobster or a movie. If you want that Rick Steve's European vacation, be prepared to pay a luxury tax to help the Del Montes pay for our "Staycations."
Viagra? Tax it heavily. Really, you ought to act your age.
Last but not least, stop asking Del Montes to get you medical marijuana since your bunch can't even remember the '60s and '70's when you poisoned us.
Sometimes the only way to solve a problem is to think outside the can.

I realize that this is partly satirical, but satire is supposed to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable. Most boomer retirees do not fit your stereotype. Many of us have only Social Security to rely on, which pays very little compared to the cost of living. This is even more true for retirees of color who were often forced into low paying jobs where they could not put as much into the fund, or did not pay into the fund at all. Pensions in the private sector were targets beginning in the 1980's. Public sector pensions are being slashed today even after being promised to workers who stayed on their jobs loyally for decades. Retirees and workers from all generations need to unite to fix this broken economy and its soaring inequality. A civil war among the generations will only benefit the wealthy elite who are primarily responsible for the mess that we are in.

She has the skinniest foot EVER! It is a great journey from getting her foot measured in Oz, Nanny Annie choosing this great style and bring the box all the way on the plane from London. Clarks would be proud!
They have been worn and worn and worn, it will be a sad day when she out grows them which is most likely now, she'll need more wriggle room. They will be in the time capsule.

text: BARISAN VALLEY, IRAQ — Kurdish rebels opposed to Saddam Hussein attempted Wednesday to tighten the noose around the key northern Iraqi city of Irbil and reverse losses in August to a rival faction backed by Baghdad, witnesses said. The Patriotic Union of Kurdistan said 6,000 of its fighters were gathering at Barisan Valley, 44 miles northeast of Irbil, near a strategic road into the city. The group has wrested control of other main roads to Irbil from the pro-Baghdad Kurdistan Democratic Party.

Food Tasting Weekend 02: Dulcissima Bakeshop (Closed)
Episode 2 of FTW (Food Tasting Weekend)
We went to a local pastry shop our friend introduced to us a week ago. As soon as we stepped inside, our eyes began to roam over the tray of cream puffs and the banana chip cupcakes on the left side of the counter. Also, those mouth watering eclairs just calling us out for a bite!
Dulcissima Bakeshop originally opened in areas of Lipa, Batangas and has found its way into Batangas City. There aren't many pastry shops in this area so when this opened a few months ago, we were ecstatic especially because of the wide selection of pastries.
For a reasonable price, you can purchase banana chip and chocolate chilp cupcakes, eclairs and slices of cheesecakes – a perfect pairing for coffee and even cold beverages. Also, this is an awesome treat for yourself.
Dulcissima Bakeshop was located in Quirino Bldg., along P.Burgos St. cor Evangelista. Sadly, this gem has been closed since 2012.

Ham, Bean & Escarole Soup
2-3 Tbl olive oil
1/2 lb ham, thicly sliced and cut into cubes
1 finely chopped yellow onion
4 cloves garlic, minced
7 cups chicken broth
1 head escarole, cored, leaves torn into pieces (I use chard because I can never find escarole)
2 cans white beans, drained, rinsed
2 Tbl fresh rosemary
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated

Warm 2 tablespoons of oil in large saucepan over med/high heat. Add ham and saute until golden and crisp (abt. 3 mins). Using a slotted spoon, transfer ham to plate. Reduce heat to medium and add more oil if necessary. Add onion and saute until softened (abt. 4 mins). Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds.

Add broth to the saucepan and bring to boil over med/high heat. add escarole (or chard) and cook, stirring, until wilted, 2-3 minutes. Add beans, rosemary, and red pepper flakes. Bring to boil, reduce heat to med/low, and simmer 5 minutes to heat through.

Add the ham to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through, 2-3 minutes. Using the back of a large spoon, mash some of the beans to thicken the soup slightly. Simmer for 2 minutes longer. Ladle soup into bowls, sprinkle with some cheese, and serve.

This is one of my favorites on a cold day! Try it. You'll love it.

I entitled my work in such a way as to create suspicion to whom I really am. Although living most of my life in Canada, my heart is not here, but elsewhere. My years abroad have made me question the fabric of our being, thus questioning the values and morals of capitalistic democracies around the world. Is it the decadence or other extrinsic forces that have made our world so mad, leaving the people in such a state of turmoil. Many not knowing what is right or wrong and those that have stark beliefs, it is usually grounded in the brain washing movement of the day.
That brings me to my role…as Alien! I have come to question, ponder, reflect and tear apart the fabric that makes up this country I used to call home! So bring it on!!!
My Wandering from Planet to…
When teaching young children, after they are engaged, how can we get them to the next level and the epiphany or enlighten stage from a skill based or information based curricula?
The impact on our learning and teaching is that we can improve and realize what improved learning may look like and become, so that not only the teachers, but the kids think about their thinking…moving towards understanding what they are doing (metacognition).
Realizing what their learning is all about, making those outcomes more kid friendly can evolve so, that students take it upon themselves for example:
By asking how many ways to make 5…versus 2+3 = ?
Is this the Teacher I want to be…over the door…am I the student I want to be?

We know its important to get off to a great start with your career. Principal offers multiple opportunities to gain experience, make connections, and provide fast-tracked opportunities to learn our business from the inside out.
Youre not just looking for an internship.
We hear you. Thats why working with us isnt just about skill sets and job responsibilities. We care about offering you diverse experiences, rewarding challenges, and global opportunities that push you to reach for bigger life goals.
The Internship Experience
Principal will host 200 interns across various business units and teams. You will meet with senior executives, gain career direction, and contribute to work that helps our customers live their best lives – all at a Fortune 500 company who invests in your personal and professional development.
Did we mention youll have plenty of time to explore Des Moines?
Principal is headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, the Midwests best-kept secret. Youll get a chance to network at social events and volunteer in the community with peers and team members. From its miles of trails and lakes, local wineries and breweries, to world-class music, theater and a thriving foodie scene, Des Moines offers big-city perks with small-town charm.
Find out more
Actuarial Internship Responsibilities
You will be part of a community of over 100 actuaries at the company. You will have the chance to develop and use technical skills to do actuarial research and calculations, and provide actuarial services and support to departments throughout the company. You will also learn about Principal, and about the key roles that actuaries play here. Well provide you with guidance on how to apply professional standards that relate to actuaries at all levels.
Projects and responsibilities vary based on business need, but here are a few examples of what previous interns have accomplished:
- Cluster Modeling Project efficient method of compressing a model with the goal of improving the runtime. Retirement and Income Solutions Financial Modeling Team
- Updating experience studies this project involves looking through our data to determine the frequency and severity of our claims across demographic groups. What we find directly affects the pricing of our products by setting assumptions based on both our internal experience and industry-wide experience. Specialty Benefits Division Individual Disability (IDI) Team
- SAS Asset Reporting Tool – help us understand why things are changing from projection to projection, allowing us to better analyze future performance from block to block. Retirement and Income Solutions Financial Modeling Team
- Analysis of Foreign Exchange Rates explore the impact of fluctuations in foreign currencies on Principals international insurance and retirement businesses. This work helps our international business enhance its strategy around how we manage the complex risks of the global marketplace. Specific responsibilities included: identifying model elements most likely to be impacted by the economic environment, designing and running test scenarios, analyzing results, summarizing findings in a memo. Principal International Actuarial Team
Whats a CodeJam?
Have you heard of an Actuarial Intern CodeJam? We didnt think so – consider it a hackathon for actuaries. Youll work with an all-intern team to identify and implement a solution to a business problem. Check out what Mitch (Maryville University) had to say about it: I had a very helpful and talented team, as well as very fun and encouraging project leaders. CodeJam was an excellent way to stir up the talents among the actuarial interns to not only take on difficult tasks, but also to increase our understanding of the company as a whole. I think the experience strongly reflected the core values of Principal and should definitely be made into a tradition.
Required Skills
- Current enrollment at a college/university with focused studies in actuarial science, statistics, mathematics or related major
- Strong analytical, problem-solving and effective communication skills are required.
- Desire to be successful in the education system of the Society of Actuaries is required. We require candidates to have completed at least one course in the education system.
- Candidates must be able to balance collaborative and independent work. We also want candidates who are up for a challenge and are ready to meet and exceed high expectations.
- Candidates should demonstrate the desire and ability to develop into business leaders so be sure you include examples of informal and/or formal leadership on your resume.
- Strong preference will be given to students who are fluent in English and any of the following languages: Mandarin, Spanish, and/or Portuguese.
- Knowledge of Excel and database or similar PC software packages, or the ability to learn, is preferred.
What interns are saying about Principal
Actuarial internships at Principal are filled with exceptionally rewarding experiences. I immediately started working on important tasks for my team. I became responsible for aspects of the weekly rate setting process for the fixed deferred annuity products. Throughout the summer, I also worked to both create and justify an assumption change in the dynamic lapse model. Beyond learning by doing at my desk, Principal provided plenty of sessions to learn from senior leaders about the other departments within the company. Finally, I always felt like there were plenty of ways to stay active during the summer. Activities ranged from going golfing to eating at places around town with members of the actuarial student program. My personal favorite activity involved coordinating with the other actuarial interns at the apartments provided by Principal to go Frisbee golfing. If you are even slightly considering Principal, I would highly recommend that you apply! JT, University of Iowa, Actuarial Intern Summer 16, Actuarial Development Program
The actuarial internship program provides great insights into the actuarial development program. You are treated just like a full-time employee, with numerous learning opportunities during work time, such as meeting with senior executives and lunch and learns. Whats more, there are plenty of fun activities planned outside of work time, which helped to form a very strong community. Being a former intern (for two summers) made the transition from a student to full-time employee very easy. Working in Principal International, I can see my work impacting the decision making process. Amy Zhou, Grinnell College 16, Actuarial Intern Summer 14 and 15, Actuarial Development Program
Principals actuarial intern program has been an invaluable step for my personal development and professional career. I was given the opportunity to enhance my technical skills, create truly valuable work, and meet with top executives across the company. Des Moines exposed me to a local and professional community second to none, embracing an open-door policy which differentiated its culture from larger cities out East. Jarryd, Clemson University, Actuarial Intern Summer 16 and 17

Rev. Dr. Zelhou Keyho
General Secretary, NBCC
I write this letter on behalf of the Nagaland Baptist Church Council, the apex body of the Baptist congregation and on behalf of many believers who are praying for you yet are not able to convey their heartfelt feelings and burden. I am certain that you are fully aware that you have been prayed for by people who visited you as you gear up yourself for the coming State Assembly Election. On the other hand, I also believe that you are now sure you have been called to enter into politics to work for the welfare of the people.
What I write to you is neither a revelation nor a prophesy of which our people are fond of. But I believe that God has placed this burden in me that I should write to you so that you will be aware of what might happen if that is you are not on your guard.
We cannot deny that the hindutva movement in the country has become unprecedentedly strong and invasive in the last few years. This fact cannot be denied no matter how hard you try to convince the innocents. You also cannot deny that the party in power at the centre is working tooth and nail to make its presence known and seen in Nagaland, the frontline of the Christian majority state in the country. Have you ever seriously questioned their intention? If you have not, do not be fooled.
Our people are fond of propaganda and because of this we often miss the reality go unnoticed. But India has experienced worst persecution ever in 2015-2017. You will be fully aware that persecutions have been tripled in recent years. Pastors, evangelists and missionaries are dragged openly in the streets, harassed and insulted and many made to suffer. Their homes destroyed and children discriminated in schools. Worship places were burnt down and believers are often disturbed and harassed. The Bible is openly burnt and confiscated. In the past 3 years many of NBCC Church partner leaders from abroad were denied visas and barred from entering India. The most recent happening is the refusal of visa for the Baptist World Alliance President, Rev. Dr. Paul Msiza, whose entry was denied to visit NE India and this happened just yesterday. It pains us that we are closely watched and followed. Do you know that our own missionaries cannot preach or visit homes openly as they use to before BJP came to power? Take time to call one of them and they will tell you.
God must be weeping when Naga politicians are running after those who seek to destroy Christianity in India and in our land. You will remember well the Australian missionary, Graham Staines, who along with his two sons Philip (aged 10) and Timothy (aged 6) were burnt alive to death in their car by a gang of Hindu Bajrang Dal in Manoharpur village in Kendujhar district in Odisha on 23 January 1999. What will become of us and the Christians in India should the Christian politicians easily embrace the political ideologies of those who seek to destroy the Christian faith in India? What justification will your party give? Cannot we say, take everything from us but leave Jesus in Nagaland? Is your political party willing the sell Jesus for the sake of development? Do you remember what they tried to do with our Christmas and Good Friday?
Let us not blame each other and try to make false promises. It is not the Central Government's fault for the situation in which we find ourselves today. It is simple, they are not interested in us no matter how hard they try to convince you. They will only be happy if they can insult us over and over again. We urge you not to use the Central Government interest to develop the Nagas as your party manifesto, they will not! We can develop ourselves if that is, we can say enough is enough! Even for that matter, leave the Naga political solution alone and let it flourish in its own pace. If it were possible, it would have happened long time ago. Let us not blame the congress or any address in Delhi, the issue is down here in Nagaland. But I believe God is not done yet with the Nagas and when the time comes India will not be able to do anything.
Dear Sir, if you believe that God has raised you to be a politician for the Naga people, fear God and no other thing. But if you are trying to do it yourself for some other reasons you cannot run away from God now or later. God exists and he will never let things go our way if we misuse his name as Christians.
May I also impress upon you as a leader that running for political office for development is only half of your task. The other half is to protect and safeguard your faith and the principles which your people hold dear. Development is not everything but when we put our house in order development and others will follow.
Why has political affiliation become your priority? Is it because you cannot become a politician without the interference from outside? This aspect has confused our people. They are made to fight without knowing anything that is happening. Leaders are often blamed yet they escape because our people have set our priority wrong. Therefore, as responsible leader of a party, I request you to control your party from confusing the public. If you fail in this, you will be failing not only yourself as a leader but the whole Nagas.
There are so many things I wanted to write but will not be able to do so at this time. However, this one thing I must tell you: Nagaland is a Christian majority state in the country and though we have failed in our testimony time and over again, you have the opportunity in your hand as a leader to show distinction. Do not surrender your Christian
Principles and above all your faith for the sake of money and development into the hands of those who seek to pierce the heart of Jesus Christ to bleed and allow God to weep.
I pray that as you read this letter the spirit of God will minister to you. It pains us to see that our people seemed to have forsaken God and have gone astray in our own selfishness. In NBCC 21st Triennial Convention held at Impur, Mokokchung from Feb 2-4, 2018, the congregation along with their leaders prayed for you in tears. We can only pronounce God's blessing to you and leave you in His Mighty Hand, so that His wisdom will prevail in your leadership.
"Let us not be deceived: God cannot be mocked" (Galatians 6:7).
Sincerely in Christ,
(This write up is an edited and abridged version of a letter which has been dispatched to all the President of the political parties in Nagaland on February 9, 2018 from NBCC Office.)

President Obama has been awarded the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize. I have little to say because I'm stunned. Stupefied. Whaaaaaaat?
You may read the article here, if you're interested.
After reading the article carefully, I've learned two very scary, very important facts that I'd like to share with you.
1. Good works are no longer necessary -- good intentions are enough.
"Rather than recognizing concrete achievement, the 2009 prize appeared intended to support initiatives that have yet to bear fruit: reducing the world stock of nuclear arms, easing American conflicts with Muslim nations and strengthening the U.S. role in combating climate change." (From the artcile, about half-way through)
As my husband said when I read this to him, "The road to **** is paved with good intentions..."
2. This is a blatant political "buy" to ensure Obama continues to support things the Prize committee and others choose for him, even if it isn't in the best interest of the country
"'We trust that this award will strengthen his commitment, as the leader of the most powerful nation in the world, to continue promoting peace and the eradication of poverty,' the foundation said." (From near the bottom)
So the Nobel Peace Prize goes to someone who has big ideas but no results, with the expectation that results must follow in the future... Where's the peace? Where's the honor in *not doing anything yet*? I'm confused and saddened for the memory of those who won this prize legitimately. It has just been cheapened.

The Peace Prize?

I had not heard of this, and am so upset by it. Everything President Obama has done since taking office has been collectively against everything honorable, good, moral and Constitutional.
My husband is of the opinion that he needs to be impeached, his whole cabinet removed, and replaced by rural conservatives. (and this is one of his "nicer" thoughts about what could/should happen)
I cannot express the extent of my disgust by all the hype the media puts out about him. Thank God we are not alone in our thoughts, though the media wants us to think we are. . .
God help America.

Arrindell's PPA Calls on Eligible Voters to Come Out and Support the Party Slate on Monday
- Published in Soualiga News
- font size decrease font size increase font size
PHILIPSBURG – Leader of the Progressive People's Alliance (PPA) Gracita Arrindell on Sunday said, "At the start of this New Year, Monday January 8th will be one of the most important steps taken by the people of Sint Maarten in deciding what direction our beautiful island will head into short-mid and long term.
"Never in our recent social- economic history have so many people from all walks of life, been subjected to such hardship, including losing their jobs in the aftermath of Hurricane Irma. To date some of our citizens are still dislocated placed in the 'Carnival village'.
This is a new year. A new year of hope. A year of strong determination to do away with the old manner of conducting business in Sint Maarten.
"We can and must demand better from our elected and appointed representatives. We are positive that we shall and will overcome our challenges and become smarter, more resilient more appreciative of our strengths and the diversity of our People. We can never allow negative minds or idle representatives in Parliament to blunt our dreams and aspirations. Don't let anyone who does not have your interest at heart squeeze u out of your dreams. Never under any circumstances!"
Arrindell says: "Endorsing the P.PA. slate of capable and committed candidates means having representatives in Parliament who will sign in to work and represent you to the best of their ability. Beyond the call of duty.
"Restoring trust will by no means be an easy task, after all our citizens have been trough.
We hope to earn back your trust and support with our actions, given the opportunity.
Our people are hurting and it seems that no one cares. For almost two years, elected and appointed officials have mainly neglected to execute their responsibilities, with the result that when confronted with the aftermath of a devastating hurricane last year, it forced our nation into a chaotic situation.
"For example, it took too long, much too long for both Parliament and Government to act obo and in the interest of our people when reconstruction aid was offered by the Netherlands. The much taunted senior citizens roof repair program remains elusive.
The doors of our islands only tertiary educational institution, the University of St. Maarten threatened to close its doors, leaving our young people out in the cold, while millions of guilders was secured for the establishment of a law degree program, supported by government."
Gracita continues: "P.P.A represented in Parliament will mean bringing forth legislation or supporting government plans on short term that will include but not limited to;
- Securing funds from the reconstruction towards those who became unemployed after Hurricane Irma
- Re-establishing an active Consumers protection agency
- Clear and shorter building permit review and approval process
- Speed up of the promised and still not delivered senior citizens home repair program
- Appointing a strong Minister Plenipotentiary in the Hague, with one of the main tasks to lobby for Sint Maarten, while maintaining an open dialogue with government and encourage businesses beneficial to our island
- Secure a long term funding plan for the University of St. Maarten
"In short endorsing the P.P.A slate means setting a new optimistic and strong tone inside and outside the house of Parliament. Our strive is for our people to be back at work again soonest. Having a home again, families being able to put food on the table and send their kids off to school in a clean and safe environment. Facilitating business to open shop. Providing better service to the general public, open and clear dialogue with our partners inside and outside of the Dutch Kingdom."
Arrindell concludes: "Electing a new Parliament with Leadership that is able and cable of leading our island in good and hard times. Serving our Nation with vision and compassion. Making big and decisive decisions, while having a keen eye for details. Strong, Stable and Secure. Not for the next elections, for the next generation and after. Thank u for your support and signature to endorse the P.P.A slate on Monday January 8, 2018 from 9 a.m- 4 pm. at the former census office on Pond island. We will uphold the chance you give us to serve our nation honorably".

Product Description
Written by Bob Wise, former governor of West Virginia and current president of the Alliance for Excellent Education, Raising the Grade describes the alarming cost of our long-time neglect of secondary education. At a time when technology and postsecondary education requirements are rising dramatically in the workforce, the literacy skills of adolescents are not keeping pace. With most federal dollars targeted to elementary schools and higher education, few resources are allocated to improve high schools, to address the achievement gap threatening nearly 6 million students at risk of dropping out in the United States. Raising the Grade is rooted in the stories of real Americans whose high school experiences failed to engage or adequately prepare them for work or college. [Description provided by the publisher]

Mel Bochner: "Art in our culture never wants to be viewed as a pursuit of knowledge, but as a manufacture of objects. We don't want to deal with any artist as a thinker. That way Malevich's art is converted into social history. But his art continues to make trouble. Look at the negative reviews his recent retrospective at the Guggenheim got. Art has a way of proceeding, like any other theoretical endeavor, by accruing knowledge about itself. Later some artists might understand—within their own contexts—and proceed with that knowledge. That's why it's not dead-end business." ["Mel Bochner on Malevich, An Interview with John Coplans", June 1974, Artforum, reprinted in "Mel Bochner, Solar System & Rest Rooms, Writings and Interviews, 1965-2007", Cambridge, MA: The MIT Press, ISBN 978-0-262-02631-4, page 114 ]
Lately, I find it helpful to acknowledge the distance between art and math art. Reading Bochner inspired me to think about art as an attempt to accrue knowledge. I have a couple of new drawings that I hope illustrate the difference between math art and art, and I think they got that way through a little knowledge accretion.
The two drawings below extend the application of scaling girih diagrams into the asymmetric. Up to now, I've worked with diagrams that have usually been at least symmetrical. These two differ radically. They also happen to use none of the original girih tiles. Instead, I used a single rhombus and scaling kite, at five scales. In the first drawing below, the rhombus is not scaled. The underlying tiles are still edge-to-edge, but gaps are everywhere, and of course filling the plane is impossible.
Given that I start with a self-similar tile set, based on girih tiles, these drawings defy mathematical approaches to patterning. I've ignored the rich tradition of ordered, quantifiable, and predictable mathematical preference for symmetry and categorization. I retain only a semblance of the usual practice. I rely on a precisely designed tile set, and I retain a preference for edge-to-edge tile placement. The two tiles include girih-like tile decoration that becomes the drawing, and this decoration is in the spirit of girih tiles. Otherwise, these patterns are not geometrical.
This is not math art. I use a bit of math to design and define tile sets. I'm aware of some of the concepts governing symmetry, self-similarity, and tilings. But I'm grateful that asymmetry and self-similarity confuse the quantification of relationships in these drawings. Using girih strap work as opposed to a zellige style completes the separation of the completed pattern from any underlying math. Obvious symmetry in most of the drawings in this series makes apparent that there is some system at work. These two drawings remove the possibility that their order might be easily deduced.
Math art is about math. Mathematicians and recreational mathematicians create beautiful math informed art. (For example, see http://gallery.bridgesmathart.org/exhibiting-artists-2010.) But math art is usually about using knowledge, and seldom about accruing knowledge. The two drawings below are the result of a search for knowledge despite math. These drawings use asymmetry, obfuscation, and design. These were the critical directives for this work. The result would have been impossible with just math. Math is a useful tool, but it doesn't explain the art.
I've posted this before. In the article, "Serial Art Systems, Solipsism", Mel Bochner said, "Happily there seems to be little or no connection between art and mathematics (math deals with abstractions, art deals with tangibilities)." ["Mel Bochner, Solar System & Rest Rooms, Writings and Interviews, 1965-2007", Cambridge, MA: The MIT Press, ISBN 978-0-262-02631-4, page 42]
Once again, here's my favorite quote from mathematician G. H. Hardy: "A mathematician, like a painter or a poet, is a maker of patterns. If his patterns are more permanent than theirs, it is because they are made with ideas." G. H. Hardy (1877 – 1947). This quote is from Hardy's essay, "A Mathematician's Apology". The full text of that essay is here.

my health
i figure you guys might want to know what's with all my weirdness of late (or you might not care, but you know, whatever...). well, a lot of it has to do with trying assimilate the recent discoveries of a couple of health issues. neither of them are particularily big deals i don't think, but i've never really ever had health issues before, so this is a new, and not pariticualrily welcome, experience for me.
First we have the 5 cm in diameter dermoid cyst (i found out i don't actually have to call it a tumor, that was a nice discovery) in my right ovary.
from a website called medicinenet:
Definition of Dermoid cyst of the ovary Dermoid cyst of the ovary: A bizarre tumor, usually benign, in the ovary that typically contains a diversity of tissues including hair, teeth, bone, thyroid, etc.
A dermoid cyst develops from a totipotential germ cell (a primary oocyte) that is retained within the egg sac (ovary). Being totipotential, that cell can give rise to all orders of cells necessary to form mature tissues and often recognizable structures such as hair, bone and sebaceous (oily) material, neural tissue and teeth.
Dermoid cysts may occur at any age but the prime age of detection is in the childbearing years. The average age is 30. Up to 15% of women with ovarian teratomas have them in both ovaries. Dermoid cysts can range in size from a centimeter (less than a half inch) up to 45 cm (about 17 inches) in diameter.
These cysts can cause the ovary to twist (torsion) and imperil its blood supply. The larger the dermoid cyst, the greater the risk of rupture with spillage of the greasy contents which can create problems with adhesions, pain etc. Although the large majority (about 98%) of these tumors are benign, the remaining fraction (about 2%) becomes cancerous (malignant).
Removal of the dermoid cyst is usually the treatment of choice. This can be done by laparotomy (open surgery) or laparoscopy (with a scope). Torsion (twisting) of the ovary by the cyst is an emergency and calls for urgent surgery.
and then we have the poly cystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). we'll go to a different site for that, we'll go to a US government women's heath site:
so, neither of them are *that* big a deal. but they're still throwing me for a loop. and i don't like it. bleh. blech. yuck. yucko. yucky.
PCOS is a health problem that can affect a woman's menstrual cycle, fertility, hormones, insulin production, heart, blood vessels, and appearance.
These are some of the symptoms of PCOS:
- infrequent menstrual periods, no menstrual periods, and/or irregular bleeding infertility or inability to get pregnant because of not ovulating
- increased growth of hair on the face, chest, stomach, back, thumbs, or toes
- acne, oily skin, or dandruff pelvic pain
- weight gain or obesity, usually carrying extra weight around the waist
- type 2 diabetes
- high cholesterol
- high blood pressure
- male-pattern baldness or thinning hair
- patches of thickened and dark brown or black skin on the neck, arms, breasts, or thighs
- skin tags, or tiny excess flaps of skin in the armpits or neck area
- sleep apnea―excessive snoring and breathing stops at times while asleep
Women with PCOS can be at an increased risk for developing several other conditions. Irregular menstrual periods and the absence of ovulation cause women to produce the hormone estrogen, but not the hormone progesterone. Without
progesterone, which causes the endometrium to shed each month as a menstrual period, the endometrium becomes thick, which can cause heavy bleeding or irregular bleeding. Eventually, this can lead to endometrial hyperplasia or cancer. [mainja: most of what i read says increased risk of uterus and breast cancer] Women with PCOS are also at higher risk for diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and heart disease.
oh, and i guess i lied, since i do have chronic depression and i'm hypo-thyroid, which i guess are both health issues. go figure. funny, hadn't thought of that. hmmm, more to assimilate.

I was devastated. Here I was miles away from home and my chiquittita was nowhere to be found. What do I do now ? I asked myself throwing my hands in the air in resignation. Not wanting to believe how everything was unfolding. I called Boke again, One more time, second time, third, time fourth time and the calls went unanswered. My heart sunk.
I was feeling drowsy as I smiled at my stupidity and staggered to a nearby pub. I needed something strong. Something really strong. This lady waiter smiled at me as I approached a sina taabu on the furthest corner. I forced a smile. Why do people even call it sina taabu and I had so much taabu here. If anything I only sit at the sina taabu when I don't want company.
I ordered a Serengeti. I drowned it in a matter of minutes and ordered two more. Momentarily staring at my blank phone.
Half way through my drink I saw a whatsapp notification. It was a message from my FWB "uko wapi fuck-boy na simu yako haiendi through?" How could I even tell her I was suffering across border? I wanted to reply but then thought against it. "Hii story hata sitawai ambia mtu." I said to myself.
It was almost ten thirty . I was drowning my second beer. The waiter looked at me concerned with a concerned face "uko na shida yoyote kaka?" She asked. "niko sawa sister" I responded.
"Inaonekana wee mgeni hapa, umetokea Kenya?" moving even closer
"Ndio, nifika leo" I replied. "shughuli gani?" She asked. "biashara tu"-I replied as I warmed up to her.If only she knew that a nunu brought me this far. "Karibu, Arusha" as she gave a wide smile.
Just then, my phone rung, "hello kaka,naomba msamaha. Nitakuelezea ukija, uko maeneo gani?"- It was Boke on phone. I told him where I was. He instructed me to pick a taxi and meet them at Masai Camp. This is one of the popular clubs in Arusha. At this club you are likely to meet a chick who will engage you in that wapwani Swahili only to turn to her friend and ask , "urona atia? Uyu niahana kugura njohi kana no wana?" Kumbe some chicks from Muchatha came here to try their luck with miners?
I quickly gulped my Serengeti, paid and walked out. I flagged a taxi and headed to Masai Camp. I did not know what to expect. As we pulled over at the parking lot I heard my friend Boke on the Mic. He was performing and his fans were going wild. I walked in and moved closer to the podium. Suddenly, I saw Belinda cut through revelers as she rushed to me with her hands wide open. She looked stunning and her smile shone under the neon lights. We hugged, it was one tight hug. "I thought I could never see you again" she whispered to my ears. "Am finally here hun" , I whispered back. We kissed right there. One deep kiss. Her eyes looked heavy. Was she crying? She smiled as she led me to where they were sitting. Boke saw me. I waved. He waved back and immediately announced zile njaro za wasanii ,
"Steve in the house all the way from Kenya" I lifted hands up like some celeb". Girls screamed. Belinda held me even tighter. Kumbe ma celeb huskia hivi?
We sat and ordered some more ndugugios. She ordered some Amarula. I ordered a cold Serengeti. Under the deafening music, Belinda explained how Boke dropped his phone in the taxi on their way there. It is only later that the taxi driver saw it and brought it to Boke. I did not have a reason not to believe.
Soon after Boke, joined us. He was done for the night. He wanted to explain what had happened but told him Belinda had already explained. We ordered a few more drinks and enjoyed the night away. Belinda stood to dance, I joined her. Was it not for her insisting, I could not have. I have two left legs. I can't even dance to save my life. A slow song played. I held her close and moved to the beat, feeling her aroused boobs press against my chest.
Man! This girl can dance. Shy gyrated against my groin arousing Johnny. I could not hold it any more. We needed to leave. Boke called the taxi guy who dropped us at Meru hotel for the night. Fire works awaited.

The number of U.S. Protestants who self-identify with a particular denomination has declined steadily over the past 16 years, according to a Gallup analysis published on July 18.
Fifty percent of respondents identified with a specific denomination in 2000, compared to only 30 percent who did so in 2016.
Those affirming Catholic affiliation moved from 25 percent to 22 percent over the same time period, while those identifying as non-denominational rose from 9 percent to 17 percent.
Baptists have the largest affiliation with 13 percent of all self-identified U.S. Protestants: 10 percent "other Baptists" and 3 percent Southern Baptists.
Four percent of respondents identified as Methodists and an equal number as Lutherans, followed by Presbyterians and Pentecostals (both at 2 percent) and Church of Christ and Episcopal (both at 1 percent).
"Since the percentages of Catholics, Mormons and those who identify with a non-Christian religion have stayed roughly the same over time, this 'rise of the nones' ... has generally been accompanied by an associated decrease in the broad category of Protestants," Gallup explained. "Therefore, there are fewer Protestants of any kind in the American population today, and the pool of those who identify with a specific Protestant denomination is smaller."
The full report is available here.

Manna from the Domestic Goddess
That's what Robert has been calling the bread I've been making. I started making my own yeast bread recently, because we switched our diet to 100% organic and, at that time, the only organic bread I could get my hands on was $6 a loaf! So, I decided it was time to start making it myself...it turned out really fantastic and yummy...also, it only cost me $2.55 a loaf to make it! I was making it so frequently I wanted to try and make a larger batch...but I didn't have a bowl big enough for all that dough, so I thought I'd improvise and make it in the kitchen sink (after I scoured it)...it turned out ok, but not perfect, so I won't be doing it that way again...but here's a picture of it rising in the sink!

I had a lot of fun making my first quilt this year...I made it for Luke Douglas Sass...Kelly and Charles' second boy. I made it to match his baby room as they had decorated it, and his bedding they had picked out. I was really proud of it, so wanted to share some pics (pics are of it unfinished)...my next one ought to be better, since I have some practice now.

100 Words About the Zen Blues
Got the Zen Blues baby
This monastery is congenitally unfriendly
My ass hurts from inadequate pillowing
Ain't had nothing but broth for four days
Dave says I'm close to a breakthrough
Dave's in for a breakthrough if he doesn't shut up.
Man the bottom's gonna fall out of my bucket
But I ain't gonna learn nothing new, no one does;
Only learn the mirror language
Where you parrot the master
Learn it well enough he won't kick yr ass in.
One of these days I will grab that stick and
teach some lessons of my own.
Until then, count breaths.

I'm sure I'm not the first 20-something year old girl to say this, but Lena Dunham just gets me. In fact, on my most recent trip back to my hometown her HBO television series Girls managed to air an episode in which she also travels back to her hometown. Parallel universes, right guys? In the episode her character Hannah gets a chance to see what her post-college life would have been like if she would have stayed in Michigan instead of New York. Obviously this got me thinking: What would have life been like if I would have stayed in good old suburbia?
Obviously you wouldn't be reading this. And my cat Elliott would be a wild farm cat on the prowl (which, in reality, I'm sure he wouldn't mind). But what the little things? Would my beer snobbery still exist and would I even know what poutine is? In fact, a life without poutine is something I'd prefer not to think about, so let's just make this quick shall we?
I've received vague images of what life would have been like if I would have stayed in my hometown, and while the thought of homecooked meals and a car are enticing I feel at home here in the city. Sure, there are times when I miss the ease of getting from one place to another without worrying about bus delays but it's easy to get through when you realize you've made a good decision on finding the right place for you. Plus when I really think about what I would be doing if I still lived in my hometown it goes a little something like this: still working at Outback Steakhouse, going to house parties with the kids I went to high school with, labeling Jack Daniels as "good" whiskey, and having the highlight of my summer be the Iowa State Fair. Thanks for making me just a tad cooler, Chicago.
So in honor of me heading back to the homestead this week, here are 10 tracks that I plan to blare whilst driving my little sister's car around my small suburban town.

Story highlights
- A doctor in Poland declared a 91-year-old woman dead, CNN affiliate TVN says
- But 11 hours later she woke up in a funeral home, according to TVN
- Authorities are investigating to find out what happened
Never underestimate the healing power of a good nap.
A 91-year-old woman in Poland was declared dead November 6 and sent to a funeral home, only to wake up 11 hours later in cold storage, CNN's Polish affiliate TVN reported. Now she's home and doing fine.
The doctor went to the home of Janina Kolkiewicz in the town of Ostrow Lubelski on November 6 after her family said she'd stopped breathing, TVN reported.
"I checked the pulse on the forearm artery, carotid artery also," the doctor told TVN. "I listened to the heart, to the breathing. I also examined the pupils. There were no reflexes. Typical symptoms of death."
The doctor signed the death certificate, and Kolkiewicz's family began planning services, according to TVN.
Then the funeral home called.
Authorities are trying to find out what happened.
"We are investigating whether the doctor exposed the woman to imminent danger of loss of life, as the lady was moved to a funeral home and kept in cold storage," Beata Syk-Jankowska, a spokeswoman for the prosecutor's office in Lublin, told TVN.

Say what!? 36 weeks, already? How is that even possible?
We are now only 4 weeks (or less) away from welcoming Oliver to the world, and seeing Ali and Brian finally get to have their baby in their arms. Today, the legal paperwork arrived at Ali's house. That makes it all SO much more official, and we are now ready for Oliver to show up.
This weekend, we took some maternity pictures. I can't wait to see all of them, but the sneaks so far are great. Ali wanted to be sure to include my kids in the photos, and they really enjoyed it.
Tomorrow is my last day of work. I'm so happy to finally have a bit more time off. I have a swollen ankle, and am just tired in general when I'm on my feet all day at work.

Our writing. So like a flavorful ice cream cone that we want others to enjoy. But then suddenly, our beautiful, creamy creation falls flat when the editor sends us that note we dread. The rejection letter. Oh, the disappointment. It's hard to even describe. You really feel as if you, yourself, have been rejected. But of course that isn't so. It's just the words you have written, words that you have sweated over, that you have worked hard to create into an interesting and unique story everyone is sure to read. Maybe you even sunk more than the usual effort into it. You went ahead and researched it. Revised it numerous times, using study helps and other guides. Talked to other writers and had the idea critiqued. Or like once happened to me, took a three week vacation out west to research the project after an agent expressed great enthusiasm.
Only to have the the project fall flat on the ground.
I could share many, many stories of rejection over the past twelve years. Some were undoubtedly worse than others. One was a book I had written and rewritten for an editor of a major publishing house. Work on the book covered a span of two years, only to have the whole project rejected when the editor left the house That one probably stung the worse.
But every rejection hurts. So what do you do? Can't really scrape the ice cream off the floor again and put it back into the cone. It's all melted. Many times the rejection means something is wrong with the project. Maybe you need to look at the work with fresh eyes. Give it a new face lift, so to speak. Let others critique it. Or maybe even set it aside for a season and work on another idea you have.
I just heard recently of a project an author allowed her agent to market eight years ago when she was a newly signed author. It had not sold but another project did. The original story sat there while other ideas were sold. Now, suddenly, this year, the first story idea has been accepted for publication. Yes, eight years after being initially rejected by every publishing house.
So you never know.
Rejection doesn't meant the end of the world, even if it seems like it right now. So treat yourself to an ice cream cone with chocolate chunks and then get back to work. God has a way of working all things together for good, and in His perfect timing.

In creating art, people often take inspiration from events and people from real life.
By having a frame of reference in one's daily life, it appears that some fuel is provided to the artist's creative engine.
This, in combination with imagination, results in the creation of the final product within the mind of the artist.
Having the final product in mind is a major milestone in the artistic process…

LAHORE (Online): Pakistan Muslim League central leader and former Deputy Prime Minister Chaudhry Pervez Ellahi has stated that Auditor General's report absolutely confirm the tale of corruption hidden in every project of Punjab government.
He said this during meeting with a delegation of senior lawyers of Lahore High Court belonging to Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaaf (PTI) and Pakistan Peoples Party, who called on him here on Monday headed by Rana Asad Munir advocate, and announced joining Pakistan Muslim League.
The delegation included Faisal Aman advocate, Irfan Ghaffar, Nadeem Aman, Ejaz Hussain Shah, Atif Ahmad and Mazhar Ali advocate.
Pervez Ellahi said that the Panama case came from Almighty Allah for catching the corruption of the rulers, that rulers will have to account for their doings, people should not be dodged by their innocent faces this time because the Supreme Court has opened their corruption to the people.
Welcome the lawyers leaders in the party fold, Ch Parvez Elahi said that our party has always been in the front for solving the problems of lawyers' community on priority basis, established institution of Prosecutor General during our tenure, set up Consumer Courts and formulated housing scheme for the lawyers.
"Rulers will have to account for their doings, Panama case came from Almighty Allah for catching the corruption of the rulers, people should not be dodged by their innocent faces this time because the Supreme Court has opened their corruption to the people", he added.
He said that corruption worth billions of rupees was committed in laptop scheme, sasti roti, yellow cab, mechanical tandoor and ashiana scheme. Highlighting the major achievements of his tenure, Ch Parvez Elahi said we have introduced private universities for popularizing education, established IT Tower for promotion of Information Technology (IT).
He said focus of our politics is common and poor man and as such our projects 1122 emergency service, patrolling posts, tax exemption for farmers over twelve and half acres, exemption of five marla from tax are also for welfare and well-being of common man and poor man but N-League hate farmers as well as the poor man because of this tax was reimposed again on the farmers and the poor.

We might feel that emotional regulation is about feeling okay. However, it is reasonable to assume that "feeling okay" is just the reward we get for listening to our emotions. My assumption is that emotions are there to motivate you to do the right thing. For instance, fear makes you run away from threats, love encourages you to invest in a (hopefully) beneficial relationship, and anger fuels your desire to protect your rights. From this perspective, emotions are the instant priority list of survival. Of course they can be far from flawless, but they most often encourage us to move in the right direction before we even realize that there is any such thing as a right direction.

The morning starts off with Shannon swearing that she shall never drink again, at least on the cruise. We have a hike to conquer today and it is not clear if Shannon will make it. But it only takes her the morning to shake it off.
Our tour was with Bumpiing (yes with two ii's) Tours and our guide is Levi (aka: Bumpiing) himself. We are in a small group of 8 people.
We hiked Middleham Falls, explored Titou Gorge, and visited Trafalgar Falls… oh and a special stop for Shannon to the squished bus.
Middleham Falls was so worth the trek. There was a little (or maybe a lot!) of complaining the next day about calf muscles being sore but everyone agreed that it was so worth it. The flora was incredible and there was an incredible waterfall at the top We swam in the natural quarry like pool at the bottom of the falls and some adventurous people (Shannon and Dave) jumped from the cliffs into the pool. What a tour.
Titou Gorge was a relaxing spot.
It is also a spot where part of Pirates of the Caibbean 2 was filmed. This place was really neat. You essentially jump into this cold but fresh water and swim into these caves. The caves open up and in there you have this waterfall. If you have the strength (like Dave and Ian) you could climb up a cliff and see another waterfall around the bend. I was content to just float about in the cave.
Trafalgar Falls was an easy hike to view a couple of amazing waterfalls. And we ended the tour with a nice soak in a hot mineral bath… ahhhh.
Bumpiing Tours, arguably the best tour of the week, highly recommended. 10+
Levi is an awesome tour guide! Really this guy is awesome. Not only is he handsome, muscular, and fit, but friendly, supportive (to those that fell a little behind on the hike), and very informative. You learn a lot about the island and although I did not take the carnival version of this tour, we did see them on the hike and there were about 30 people! I prefer the small setting and there is no way Levi will let you miss the boat so there were no worries there.
Overall score for the day: 10+

History of D.C. United ownership
D.C. United has played in Major League Soccer since it was founded in 1996. The pro soccer team has called RFK Stadium its home for all of those years but owners have been working since 2007 to strike a deal with D.C. or another jurisdiction for a new publicly financed stadium.
D.C. United Ownership History
1995: Billionaire investor George Soros, backing Washington Soccer LP, wins the ownership rights for D.C. United as Major League Soccer is being created. The league launches in 1996.
January 2002: Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG), founded by billionaire Philip Anschultz, buys D.C. United. Kevin Payne, former president of Soccer USA Partners and now the CEO of D.C. United, helped organize the ownership deal.
January 2007: D.C. United Holdings, led by Victor MacFarlane, founder of MacFarlane Partners, and William Chang, chairman of Westlake International Group, buys the team from Anschultz. Other investors included D.C. United's Payne and Blue Devil Development, headed by former Duke basketball players Brian Davis and Christian Laettner.
April 2009: Victor MacFarlane sold his share of the team to his partner William Chang after two stadium proposals had fallen through in D.C.
October 2009: William Chang also bought out Davis and Laettner to fully control D.C. United.
July 2012: Erick Thohir and Jason Levien, according to media reports, agree to join Chang's ownership group of D.C. United. A new stadium is one of their top priorities, sources told ESPN.

Welcome to Our Service Department
At Chicago Northside Toyota, our highly qualified technicians are here to provide exceptional service in a timely manner. From oil changes to transmission replacements, we are dedicated to maintaining top tier customer service for both new and pre-owned car buyers. Allow our staff to demonstrate our commitment to excellence.
OEM vs. Aftermarket Parts
When you service your vehicle at Chicago Northside Toyota, you can be sure it will be running at peak performance for many years to come. Why? We use OEM parts made by Toyota, so you know they were carefully crafted to meet Toyota's high standards. What are the benefits of OEM vs. aftermarket parts?
- It is easier to choose your part - With OEM parts, there is usually only one option. You won't have to waste time browsing through a variety of aftermarket options and assessing their quality.
- There is an assurance of quality - An OEM part is designed to work exactly the same way as the part you are replacing. This gives you added peace of mind because you are already familiar with its performance.
- You can expect a warranty - For even more peace of mind, OEM parts come with a warranty against defects. Most aftermarket options don't offer a warranty.
Keep Your Vehicle Properly Maintained with ToyotaCare
One of the benefits of your new Toyota is the ToyotaCare maintenance plan. This no-cost plan comes with 24-hour roadside assistance as well as covers typical factory scheduled maintenance for 2 years or 25,000 miles (depending on which comes first). Simply bring your vehicle by our service center, and you will be back on the road in no time.
