Wow. That went fast.
What a crazy final day of the month, but in a good way! Lots of Scentsy going on and that's what I like to see. Hey. Let's face it. If I have an addiction to something, I want to share it with everyone I know.
I've started running again. Not in the--Wow. I hope I can run more than once in the next couple weeks--kind of way, but in the "I went Saturday when it was nice out and I went today when it was not." Every other day from now until the wheels fall off, so sayeth Guard Wife. It makes a huge difference to my mood and my waistline. And, truth be told, it helps keep things moving along and I don't feel so sluggish or hefty as I lumber through my day. Sure, I have trouble dragging myself up and down the stairs at the law school, but that will become less obvious with time, if I remember correctly.
March will be a month of rededication to the older girls. M1 has done great keeping her obligations in check. From school work to practices, she is doing so well. M2? She had been holding her own, but left a couple low grades on the kitchen table for me to find after she went to bed tonight. Yikes. We need to make sure she is sitting down and doing her homework at the table first thing rather than whatever it is she actually does. We also need to crack down and make her buckle down and quit rushing through things just to be done. If we don't take our time, we'll have plenty of time to do extra. We can certainly write our spelling words five times a night to avoid a disappointing score. She had about 4 weeks where she'd earned a 100% plus a bonus point for a bonus word on her spelling tests. This past week? She netted a grade exponentially lower and a frownie face from her teacher on her paper.
I feel like I've failed her in so many ways. But, there is still time. This has been a huge wake-up call. I'm sorry, but I won't be spending over an hour to help someone else figure out that "cupcake" does not rhyme with "cat". Seriously. That does not even remotely make sense. M2 and I will sit at the table and do her homework and bring our grade up pronto.
This week's M3 therapy appointment should be interesting given that they did brain biofeedback at her last appointment (that I had to miss because I was at a conference) and my husband said it was painfully obvious, even to him, that things are not right and it's "loud" in there. My gut tells me medication will be in the offing. Normally, I would balk and do research and whatever else. At this stage of the game, I'm going to ask for my own free sample. No doubt it's something that could help her. She just has so many monumental issues that will become insurmountable if we cannot find a way in there. Truthfully, our therapist is after us to set a deadline for ourselves and criteria to measure ourselves at that deadline. I'm thinking by summer we should know which way this is headed. If it all goes as fast as February did, that will be here before we know it.
I have my annual exam with my OB/GYN next week. I usually love going to see him. This year? Not so much. I don't want to have to tell yet another person about our current situation. Especially someone who was so proud of our decision and who had encouraged us in it and also honestly told me if I wanted to grow our family from scratch, I needed to do something before I turned 40. Sigh. Epic fail on all accounts and it will just make me, once again, confront my reality in a gut wrenching way. I've been doing great blithely wandering through my day with a smile, but there is something about a backless gown and stirrups that makes things a little harsh.
Tomorrow is a non-running day which is good because I have to pack a ton of activities into the morning so I can make it to my hair appointment (I have not had anything done to my hair since AUGUST, people!) and then deliver Girl Scout cookies to some of my Brownies' houses. At least it's midterm break at law school and I have all week to finish my paperwork for next week.
Things making me happy today:
2. Eminem's new song, "Not Afraid", on my iPod in my running playlist. That, coupled with "Lose Yourself", kept me on around a 12-minute mile pace which is about 3 minutes under where I normally find myself. I ran over 2 miles today thanks to Marshall Mathers. No, I don't care for his potty mouth and I have not liked all his music. But, those two songs speak to me at this stage in my life. And, granted, he's getting over drugs and alcohol and I'm just trying to put down the Little Debbies, but both of them are killers. I open my run with "Lose Yourself" and it is amazingly inspiring to get your feet down the pavement.
3. Working with my two part-time "employees" tonight whose excitement over helping Mom with Scentsy sorting and packing was infectious. So fun to see them work together, try to be efficient, work out jobs for themselves and be complimentary of each other's strengths.

Keeping Up
It is all happening in the garden right now and getting increasingly difficult to keep up with maintaining everything. The peas are producing profusely, the strawberry plants are sending out runners everywhere (to be potted up) and the tomato plants need almost constant watering.
Much to be done outside today. I need to find places for cauliflower plants and sow some chive seeds. The lawn needs edging and the flowers deadheading. I think I may be a while...............

"fine example of Palladian architecture"
A long, wide stairway leads to the wrought-iron laced porch surrounding the main doorway of this magnificent mansion situated in the historic district of Vicksburg. Considered to be one of the finest examples of Palladian architecture in the state, it escaped destruction during and after the Civil War's siege by serving as a hospital for Confederate and Union soldiers. Beneath its high ceilings and richly decorated walls of cardinal reds, deep blues and rich greens, the polished floors carry bloodstained marks from wounds. In one room, the ceiling beams show where a cannon-ball struck.

Health IT Now, BPC, and Leading Health Care and Technology Groups Promote New Vision for Health IT Policy
Washington, D.C.– Health IT Now and the Bipartisan Policy Center, along with nearly 50 individuals representing clinicians, patients, hospitals, and technology companies, releases a report today calling for a more modern health IT and digital health framework that assures consumer protections, reduces burden among users and developers, and accelerates innovation.
The report, The Future Role of Government in Health IT and Digital Health, highlights principles and recommendations for policymakers as they consider new ways to reduce burdens and advance regulatory reforms.
Since the enactment of the Health Information Technology Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act nine years ago, adoption of electronic health records has grown to nearly 90 percent among the nation's physicians and hospitals. However, as the report points out, our nation's current regulatory framework has not kept up with advances in technology, leading to dissatisfaction and increased burden among its users and developers.
- Practicing physicians spend about half of their workdays on EHRs and desk work, including 37 percent of their time in the examination room with patients, and one to two hours each night, which are devoted mostly to tasks conducted using an EHR.
- Emergency physicians spend about 44 percent of their time on data entry, versus 28 percent on direct patient care.
- Submitting quality data can also be time-consuming and burdensome, taking on average 11 hours and costing $723.50 per eligible clinician.
The work group agreed that an ideal oversight framework should be flexible, risk-based, stable and predicable, accountable to the public, and undergo continuous improvement and innovation.
The report recommends that the federal government's future role in health IT and digital health should focus on the following functions:
1. Provide assurance that core consumer protections are met
2. Recognize private sector standards and promote their adoption
3. Convene experts and stakeholders to identify issues and challenges that need to be addressed
4. Fund research and development activities to continue to advance the field
It also emphasizes that the framework must assure that technology is user-friendly, safe, secure, interoperable, enables patients easy access to their health information, and flexible enough to meet the changing needs of consumers and an evolving health care system.
To transition into this future role, the report calls for proper continued implementation of provisions in the 21st Century Cures Act. It also calls for careful review and reduction or elimination of prescriptive technology requirements contained in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' (CMS) quality improvement, payment, and delivery system reform programs and an overhaul of the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) Health IT Certification Program, building upon CMS and ONC efforts currently underway to reduce burdens and advance regulatory reforms.
"For too long, federal regulation of health IT has favored reporting and process over care and treatment. These regulations steal time from patient care with little to no tangible benefit. Under the leadership of Health IT Now and BPC, our work group has laid out a less burdensome, more rational, innovation conducive, and patient friendly oversight framework that ensures the government focuses on upholding core consumer safety protections while allowing other health IT functions to rest with the private sector – where they belong," said Joel White, executive director of Health IT Now.
"Congress and the administration have an excellent opportunity to build a better system that both accelerates innovation and protects patients," said Janet Marchibroda, director of BPC's health innovation initiative. "Competition and incentives can produce innovative tools that ultimately help providers and patients deliver and receive high-quality, cost-effective, and patient-centered care."

the game of kicking the football by opposing parties of players between goals
Association football, commonly known as football or soccer, is a sport played between two teams of eleven players with a spherical ball. It is played by 250 million players in over 200 countries, making it the world's most popular sport. The game is played on a rectangular field with a goal at each end. The object of the game is to score by kicking the ball into the opposing goal. The goalkeepers are the only players allowed to touch the ball with their hands or arms while it is in play and then only in their penalty area. Outfield players mostly use their feet to strike or pass the ball, but may use their head to strike the ball instead. The team that scores the most goals by the end of the match wins. If the score is tied at the end of the game, either a draw is declared or the game goes into extra time and/or a penalty shootout depending on the format of the competition. The Laws of the Game were originally codified in England by The Football Association in 1863. Association football is governed internationally by the International Federation of Association Football which organises a World Cup every four years.
U.S. National Library of Medicine
A competitive team sport played on a rectangular field. This is the American or Canadian version of the game and also includes the form known as rugby. It does not include non-North American football (= SOCCER).

Divided We Stand
by Patrick Whalen
4/04/2008 / Politics
Once again it is election year. The airwaves assail our senses with sound bites and imagery of the promise of hope, peace, security and above all, unity. Just as we have done since the very first Presidential election, the masses will set out to the polls to choose one of these agents of change. Once the numbers are counted, the victor will take the stage and show appreciation to the voters for recognizing the need for his, or her, leadership.
If history is any indicator, the public will sit in their easy chairs eagerly waiting the coming day of unity. Predictably, it will not come. Our brave men and women will continue to serve and protect our interests around the globe and the wallets of lobbyists and politicians in Armani suits will burst at the seams. Secular and sacred pulpits will continue to vie for public opinion and the tides of change will continue to swing like the slow brass pendulum of a grandfather clock. Each corner of the eternal dialogue will claim to hold the only true solution to everlasting peace, and blame the other for its delay.
This perpetual clash of ideas and ideals often becomes a tiresome, wearisome journey which leads many good citizens into a state of mental and emotional apathy. The conversations in this election year have focused, perhaps more than any other time in our history, upon a highly emotional and passionate spiritual center. Hollywood is even vying for "face-time" in this hot issue with the upcoming release of two motion pictures, "Lord Save Us from Your Followers, Why is the Gospel of Love Dividing America?" and "Expelled, the Movie."
Both of these films illustrate some of the grand divides in our American culture. Intolerance comes in many forms and to claim innocence in the debate is evidence of the growing ignorance among the population. There is a war for ideas and ideals taking place but it seems, for the most part, that this is one of the first wars being waged primarily by the line officers. The would-be foot-soldiers seem merely content to watch the fray as if it were simply another entertaining reality show.
The "gospel of love" is finding its way into the hearts and minds of both the faithful and the faithless. The cry, "Can't we all just get along" rings out from day-to-day. The question then is, if such a majority of people have a desire for peace and unity, why does peace and unity continue to elude all our best efforts. Some people actually claim to know the secret to these things as evidenced by yet another book and movie coming out this year. The fallacy is those who claim to have the secret formula to peace are simply fooling themselves, and others, into a continued path of division and strife.
By definition, peace involves the absence of war; yet "the secret" many people are seeking involved the acquisition of power, property and possessions. This single fact alone illustrate that as long as one person remains unsatisfied with their own personal wealth or power, there will be no peace among us. Thus, unity itself will never find a home among a people without peace.
To the surprise of many, there was a time, long ago, when the population of the earth was at peace and unity. These people united together in a single purpose. Together they worked as a dedicated team in an unprecedented building project, the likes of which has never occurred again. A tower, higher than had ever been built before, was constructed for a single purpose. Unfortunately, this purpose was not for the benefit of the people, but was instead an effort to reach equality with God. The truth was that while unified, these brave builders were not at peace. There was a war within that drove them to unify in single purpose to reach to the heavens to satisfy their desire to not feel inferior, to anyone or anything. Ultimately their efforts were in vain as there never can be equality with God. As long as there are people convinced within themselves that they have no need for, or can make demand upon Him, there will be no peace.
The reader may or may not understand, or believe, that God himself purposely set a division among mankind to prevent their feeble attempts at equality, but the fact will remain until Jesus Christ returns. We are and will be a people divided and until that final day, divided we will stand.

Pa. woman shined light for son as they mistook girl in Halloween costume for skunk, shot her
ROCHESTER, Pa. – A woman hosting a Halloween party shined a light for her son to help him shoot what they thought was a skunk but was really his 8-year-old cousin in a black-and-white costume, police said.
The girl, who was hit in the shoulder, arm, back and neck, was hospitalized Monday in critical condition following Saturday night's shooting in Rochester, a rural area about 30 miles northwest of Pittsburgh where firearms and hunting are common.
The woman hosting the party, Janet Grant, told police officers someone told her at around 8:30 p.m. there was a skunk nearby and she asked her son to shoot it, New Sewickley Township police Chief Ronald Leindecker said Monday, according to the Beaver County Times.
The son, 24-year-old Thomas Grant, grabbed a shotgun while his mother pointed the beam of a flashlight at a nearby hillside, Leindecker said. Grant spotted what he thought was a skunk under a tree and fired, the chief said, but then he heard a scream from his cousin.
The girl was wearing a black body costume and a black hat with a white tassel.
People who live in the quiet country neighborhood said neither Grant nor his family had ever caused problems.
"Nobody can really understand it," said Dan Reese, who lives next door to the house where Grant fired the shotgun.
But Reese said Grant shouldn't have been shooting at that time of night or near other houses.
"He knows better," Reese told The Associated Press.
The Grant house sits of the side of a small hill, and at least two other houses appear to be within 100 yards. That could be important because it is a violation of state hunting regulations to shoot a firearm within a 150-yard safety zone around another occupied residence.
State officials also say that while it is legal to hunt skunks and to hunt them at night, that requires what is known as a furtaker license. It's unknown if Grant had one.
Leindecker said a "thorough investigation" is under way and no charges had been filed. No one answered the door of the Grant house on Monday afternoon.
Investigators haven't released the identity of the girl, who was flown to Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh. A spokeswoman there declined to comment on her condition.
Reese said the girl may have been lucky because local nurses apparently were with her when she was shot.

The North Canyon girls won the Girls team title at last year's Division 2 Section 3 meet
North Canyon
While the North Canyon boys and girls track teams are coming off a State Championship season, the boys and girls of the Rattler distance team have been hard at work putting in the miles all summer. North Canyon had a talented core of underclassmen at the helm of the girls' team last season and after some strong performances on the track, we'll likely see them come into their own as maturing leaders for the Lady Rattlers. Juniors, Stefana Purkovic and Cassandra Ogburn will likely lead the charge while Bella Gallo (So.) shows a lot of potential as a no. 3 for now. The guys will be led by Seniors Matthew Palmer and Sean Lundberg who both PR'ed with sub-ten-minute 3200m performances at the track and field State Championships. Jesus Padilla (Jr.) and Kevin Moreno (Sr.) have also made big improvements this spring as sub five-minute milers.
Coaches Jason Scronic and Michelle Boulay Say…
Who are your top returners?
NCXC's top boy returners are Seniors Matthew Palmer and Sean Lundberg who ran in both the 1600m and 3200m at state. NCXC's girls brings back 6 of its 7 varsity athletes from 2016: Senior Ariel Rey; Juniors Stefana Purkovic, Cassie Ogburn, Dafne Cortez, and Andrea Diaz; and Sophomore Bella Gallo. Many of these ladies are coming off strong performances at the state track meet.
Do you have any impact freshman / incoming transfers?
Right now, NCXC is not aware of any impact freshman boys, but we are looking for major improvements from two of our returning underclassmen, Jesus Padilla and Paul Gonzales, and we also have a few young sophomore and freshmen girls that could make an impact in 2017.
What meets are you keying in on this year?
Each race throughout the season is used to focus on some key strategies to prepare for the end of the season district, sectional, and state races. Every race is important.
How was your preseason training?
Preseason went well with minimal issues. The NCXC boys were able to get some great training in with minimal issues. However, the biggest achievement came at summer camp when the boys had an opportunity to bond and come together as a team. Many of the girls had an opportunity to keep active in some community 5ks and even attend some regional cross-country camps. NCXC is excited to see what this offseason work can bring to the season.
Have you set any goals as a team?
NCXC's team goals continue to evolve as the season progresses, but the NCXC boys' team has high aspirations and is excited to compete. With a top-5 finish at state in 2016 and coming off a State title in Track, NCXC is setting the bar high this year and is looking to continue to compete in 2017. There are some great teams in our district, section, and division that will make this season fun to watch.

Brandon Martin announced as new director of Small Business Development Center
May 11, 2011Seven months after adopting a formal program to assist small businesses in the region, California State University, Bakersfield has hired local business attorney and marketing professional Brandon Martin as the director of the CSUB Small Business Development Center serving Kern, Inyo and Mono counties.
"I'm looking forward to getting the word out about the useful services and technologies our organization offers to local entrepreneurs as well as the opportunity to build the solutions-focused assistance we can provide in new areas," Martin said.
The CSUB SBDC operates under the UC Merced SBDC Regional Network in Central California and is part of a national network of centers established by the U.S. Small Business Administration to provide assistance to small businesses looking to start or expand their operations. The local center offers free and paid services in the form of one-on-one consulting with business professionals, workshops on topics such as human resources and marketing, and help with small business loan applications.
CSUB became host of the SBDC in October 2010 and has already seen success under the leadership of Interim Director John Pryor, who has amassed a team of consultants, including faculty and MBA students from CSUB.
"Thanks to the excellent efforts of my predecessor, John Pryor, our team of standout consultants, and the university's excellent faculty, we are well-positioned to continue to be a positive, creative force in our community in the years to come," Martin said.
Most recently, Martin served as Communications Director of the 2010 Bakersfield Business Conference, which is organized by his father, prominent Bakersfield business attorney George Martin. Brandon Martin also recently launched an Internet consulting business in 2009 called Mighty Megaphone, which he said has helped familiarize him with many of the modern and topical issues facing small businesses.
During his 10-year professional career, Martin has advised small and large businesses in California, practicing law in the areas of real estate development and environmental law for firms in Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, and Bakersfield. He has also served as a lecturer in CSUB's Environmental Resources Management program on the topic of environmental compliance.
"CSUB's School of Business and Public Administration is excited about what Brandon Martin brings to the table," said Associate Dean Mark Evans. "He has the leadership and communication skills to establish great rapport with the SBDC's consultants, business clients, community stakeholders, and our university. He is strategic and visionary, comfortable with the new technologies driving business competitiveness."
Martin holds a bachelor of arts in communication studies from University of California at Los Angeles, and a law degree from University of California, Berkeley School of Law. While in law school, he helped small businesses in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties by serving pro-bono for the Small Business Counseling Center and the Samuelson Clinic for Law and Technology.

Tag: Betty Shopper
Hmmm, this bag thing is kinda fun
Isn't she lovely? Isn't she wonderful? Honestly, never thought I would be excited by a bag I made.
Last night, I cut myself badly enough putting in the grommets that I considered a run to the emergency room. But, I decided that an ugly scar on my finger and two hours of bleeding was better than losing four hours of my life sitting in the
fourth rung of hell Johns Hopkins ER on a Friday night. Of course this morning I found my awl and wondered where it was last night when I was using dressmaker shears to punch a hole in the fabric. But, I digress.
I also took some advice from a review on PR and divided one pocket in half (bottom photo). The other (above) will get a big snap which I picked up at Joann's today. The pockets are kinda floppy without it.
Also, I think I would recommend interfacing the quilt weight lining fabric. I think the side where I divided the bag has more support. I imagine some interfacing on the lining would do the same.
I attached the button purse feet with upholstery thread.
Nice bag. Would make it again, a little smaller. Will be great for the Farmer's Market this summer. Who am I kidding. I'm taking this bad boy to work on Monday. I bet my Aunt Judy would like one of these too.
Look Ma, I made a button!
People are soooo smart. Last week I posted that I was going to buy purse feet for my Betty Shopper bag. Nancy and BeeBee suggested I use buttons instead. I went through my button stash (and it's been a stash since I bought not one but TWO of the four pound button bundles from Fabric Mart).
I liked the way the red coordinated. But, it wasn't thick enough for me. I really don't want the bottom of the bag getting gross. Then I remembered reading somewhere that you could double up buttons for interest.
Cool, huh? Just a few drops of crazy clue from the dollar store and I have purse feet.
And, they go great with this stretchy brown woven that I've envisioned as BWOF 1-2007-113.
I love these blog awards that go around! Well, Marji from FiberArts Afloat, Gwendolyn of After the Dress and Domestic Haven's Mimi nominated me for the Excellent Blog Award. Well, shucks. Thanks ladies! And I'd like to nominate two more. Yes, I'm supposed to do 10. But it was a long day at work and I've got tickets to Gounod's Romeo et Juliette with the Baltimore Opera tonight. Am very excited! I bought one ticket for this and for Madame Butterfly almost a year ago. Talk about delayed gratification.
The first is for Leslie of Loohoo Originals who I officially met at PR weekend in LA. Since we met, she's been my daily source of sewing when the boards or blogs are slow. She launched her blog last week and her first post is on one of my favorite gadgets, the Consew Gravity Feed Iron.
I don't usually seek out the knitting blogs. I can't knit and it just makes me bitter that I can't. But, there's a cool knitter out there who sews too and is a sci-fi junkie like me (don't sleep on Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Star Wars y'all). So, if you have a moment, check out Peacock Chic.
Before I close, I'd like to say THANK YOU to Ben. Ben (who is from New Jersey) found my driver's license outside of the Walnut Room in Philadelphia. He tracked my number down and called to let me know he put it in the mail. I told him 'thanks' and he said I should pay it forward.
I can get with that. So, I'll send a set of 10 of these red and brown buttons to the (pre-determined number) person who who asks for them in the comments. Or, umm, if I'm the only one who likes them, I'll just keep them and say I did 🙂

Online piracy has been a thorn in the side of both the music and film industries for almost as long as the internet has been in existence. While the battle is still waged on dedicated websites where people can download files, another avenue has popped up since the emergence of the smartphone, mobile apps. Big Hollywood is now taking the fight to "rogue" apps that use images from movies and television shows without permission by going through the proprietors of the app stores, Apple and Google.
For instance, just last week Time Warner Inc. Warner Brothers Studio discovered "Hobbit 3D Wallpaper HD" which is an app in the Google Play Store that uses images from the popular movie without permission. The studio sent Google a take down notice to which the search giant quickly complied by removing the illegal app. According to Google, Walt Disney Co's Marvel unit, Sony Corp, Viacom Inc's Paramount, and News Corp's Twentieth Century Fox and Warner have all submitted infringement notifications.
With "app stores" becoming a greater source of revenue, a predicted 2013 figure of $20 billion, these content providers are taking greater steps to protect their intellectual property by enforcing licensing fees. Obviously this isn't just about streaming content anymore either. Studios are using apps more and more to engage viewers through ads in specific games and as ways to sell merchandise.
Recently IP Lasso, a firm that monitors brands on mobile apps, "surveyed 100 apps that mentioned Oscars or the Academy Awards, and found that 90 percent of those apps available on major app stores, like Google Play and Apple Inc's app store, contain content that may not have been authorized by studios, TV networks or other creators."
The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) has also expanded their surveillance into the mobile app field. According to Marc Miller, senior vice president for internet content protection for the MPAA, "Smartphone apps that provide a direct link to infringing content have become a growing problem that needs to be addressed. Not only do these apps offer access to creative content that has been illegally copied, but they also pose risks to consumers from malware and often fail to provide viewers with the quality product they could often get through a growing number of legitimate sources."
Also unlike websites where people go to download illegal content knowingly, consumers using unlicensed applications may be unaware that they are using something illegally obtained. "Consumers have been led to believe if an app is available through iTunes or Google Play, then it must be safe" said Reggie Pierce, chief executive officer of IP Lasso.

Page 185 - He alone reads history aright, who, observing how powerfully circumstances influence the feelings and opinions of men, how often vices pass into virtues and paradoxes into axioms, learns to distinguish what is accidental and transitory in human nature from what is essential and immutable.
Page 212 - It is recommend, therefore, that there should be a clearly accepted division of responsibilities at the head of the Company, which will ensure a balance of power and authority, such that no one individual has unfettered powers of decision.

I was quickly sick of main meals from the clubs. Second last night we had fish and chips in our room and the last night, pizza in our room.
Back in Mildura, R once again cooked and it was bliss to be home the next night when he made satay chicken.
You know in Broken Hill, there just did not seem to be any restaurants like we are used to in Melbourne. Nor really in Mildura. Guess we Melbournians are quite spoilt for places to eat well and cheaply. But they are small places. There was a Chinese takeaway in Broken Hill that we may have tried if we stayed another night. I was getting a hunger for Asian food after not having any for a week or so, hence my request for satay chicken when we returned home.
As for coffee, bah. Don't leave Melbourne if you like a decent cup of coffee. Can you believe $3.60 for a watery latte served in some sort of tulip
Curry pie in Witchyproof (spell check later) on way home was ok, except the maker forgot the curry.

Getting the minemeld engine up running the AutoFocus/TAXII redesign today, one thing I noticed while trying to create better and more targeted AutoFocus miners is that I cant create a list that maintains a specific "age"
Where many lists will allow an operator to call out the last 7 days or last 60 days of events, or being no older than that, AutoFocus only has the ability to code it for a range via JSON. Perhaps it would be a good feature to have them allow the database to process a JSON that's a constantly no older than x? Would cut down on over producing data just to get cut back down inside minemeld.
I know it will let me find a range, but the range wont automatically follow along at a specific "Time to Live" of sorts. Might be a good idea?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @hallerr,
I think you can achieve that by defining a miner based on an AF query with a specific start point and use the age_out parameter inside the Miner.
Example, with this query you can retrieve indicators of malware found in the Finance industry starting 30 days ago:
"children": [
"field": "sample.malware",
"operator": "is",
"value": 1
"field": "session.device_industry",
"operator": "is",
"value": "Finance"
"field": "sample.create_date",
"operator": "is after",
"value": [
"operator": "all"
When you create a Miner based on this query, it will first retrieve all the indicators matching this query (last 30 days worth of indicators) and then it start polling for new samples every 60 minutes. You can then use the age_out parameters inside the prototype to decide the maximum age of indicators to be stored in MineMeld. Example: after an indicator has been retrieved, you can decide to keep it in the feed for 60 days.
Similar to what I was thinking but the dates would then be static correct? Im more thinking of a sliding value that is always 30 days old, and maybe thats what it does but it asks for a specific date?
Hi @hallerr,
only the date in the query is static and set the initial start of the sliding window. After that, every hour, the sliding window is pushed ahead:
1 - At time 0 a query is performed to retrieve the last 30 days worth of indicators using a query with a static date (time 0 - 30 days)
2 - After that every hour, a new query is performed to retrieve the new indicators that have been added after the last query
3 - and every hour, indicators older than 30 days are aged out and removed from the feed/graph
You can achieve this today by tuning the config settings of the AF Miner. 30 days could also be an arbitrary time range.

Mutter Tofu Paneer is the vegan Mutter Paneer – a peas and homemade cheese-cube curry, one of the most famous and popular North Indian vegetarian recipes and dishes. It's on almost every menu of every Indian restaurant everywhere. But every cook makes it their own special way.
I experimented with this dish several times a month for the year that I lived in India. Even if you aren't a numbers whiz, you probably have the idea: Yes sir, Yes ma'am, I've cooked this dish a lot. I've also sampled dozens of different variations across the subcontinent and at Indian buffets throughout North America and Europe.
The best Mutter Paneer ever? No question, no doubts: at homes eating with the family as an honored guest. Indians know how to make you feel like the most welcome guest in the world. Amazing food makes it easy.

I'm designing a PWM output for a DC motor and I'm using TL494CN chip.
It got two error amplifiers and one feedback. I can't understand why there are error amplifiers and a feedback there? What does that error amplifier do in there? I can't figure out.
And I have reviewed some motor driver circuits, like this one
I can't figure out why he connected reference voltage to error amplifier IN- pin?
Is that error amplifier gives a unity gain? Is that what it mean?

The wind has blown me to Disneyland, countless times.
Yes, countless times, as I might be a little embarrassed to count the actual days of my life I have spent at the Disneyland Resort. But some of you may not know that the title of this story are the last words you hear before one gets on the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad rollercoaster in Disneyland(or to be technical it is also played at the Magic Kingdom at Disney World).
After not being in a real bed for longer than usual from travelling from Hawaii (yes Hawaii) I thought it a brilliant idea to take up my walking buddy's offer of walking at 6:00A the next morning, which is technically 3AM Hawaiian time.
(Photo of my walking buddy and me. JK, it's Pixar's Joy and Sadness from the movie "Inside Out".)
It took a good 15 minutes struggling to find a jog bra, my Cascade Lakes Relay shirt and the rest of my clothes to make a decent presence for the neighborhood walk. I then proceeded to negotiate a 6:25 meeting time.
The song playing in the car- "Good To Be Alive" by Jason Gray. This is a song that is in my mind's jukebox. H23. I love the lyrics of this song, which a few years ago I shared a link with a friend who was in the midst of battling breast cancer and she replied after I posted on her page, "What a fun presentation! Making this my theme song!"
She fought the good fight, made this her theme song, but she died three months later.
But this day, this Thursday, was the day that my good friend was to get his chemo for the first time. I know he is living the theme of that song, and I want him to still be here with us. I wore the Cascade Lakes shirt because I was running the race when my sister had her first chemo treatment. She finished her race at 59 years young.
I keep cutting in line to pray for my friend, that he is healed and stays here with us to continue to remind us to "Hold Fast".
So I took the words of the song to heart and began the day.
My walking buddy (remember the previous photo) and I did our catching up on our walk, and did something we hadn't done before. I asked her if we could pray for our friend when we were done walking, and she said we could just do it then.
Interestingly, I have never prayed out loud whilst walking, at least I cannot recollect this. It was so, well, bizarre. It felt like I was walking with my eyes closed. (You may ask, "Why is this relevant to the story?" Well, it is it was just that kind of day. Trusting what God has planned for your day is a bit like walking with your eyes shut, trusting what He has set before you-eyes open or shut).
At the conclusion of our walk we talked a bit about not seeing each other for a while as I would be going Wildhorse Canyon for YoungLives Camp on Sunday morning.
When I made it home I saw that I had a text message on my phone from one of my YoungLives team member, to call her ASAP. She uses capitals A LOT so I wasn't too concerned, but I called her right away, even thought it was seven something in the morning, which apparently yesterday, all time was irrelevant.
She asked how I was doing, and such and I said I was gearing up to pack for camp. Then she said we weren't going to camp. I was a little confused. I was listening and thought maybe I was somehow axed from the list because we had too many leaders for our area, or that maybe we didn't raise enough money…
But this was the problem :
Apparently, the camp is currently shut down due to this ball of no fun, the Norovirus.
So my YoungLives leader friends and Young Life staff, and everybody and their dog are trying to make this camp happen (background story that is running behind the scenes while I do other stuff. The stuff that I do. Whatever it is that is I do).
My day was to be reserved for packing and running errands to get ready for me leaving for camp.
So I did what I most always do every day with the attitude of "Let's see where the wind blows me today."
Sure enough, I found myself helping charge a car battery for one of my Hosea friends, which occupied a good portion of my day helping to solve the issue of a dead van battery.
Then I was onto helping another Hosea friend who needed a ride to the grocery to get her WIC food, as she owns no car. While in the grocery store, I found myself thinking, "This is so funny that I actually LIKE doing stuff like this."
The day progressed, battery problem sort of solved until the first of the month, and the YoungLives camp solution was being worked out in the background. The day ticked into the evening, then I sat with my husband and discussed the day(the daughter made dinner whilst I was out and about). Then I realized we needed to get onto the production part of hosting a house concert in about three weeks-a concert at our house with a "real" folk artist, icon if I must say.
No, it is not Daft Punk, but an amazing singer songwriter, folksy guy from Alabama. Pierce Pettis is his name, and my favorite song he wrote is "God Believes In You". Why yes, I will share all the lyrics of the song:
When you start to doubt that you exist
God believes in you
Confounded by the evidence
God believes in you
When your light burns so dim
When your chances seem so slim
And you swear you don't believe in him
God believes in you
When you rise up just to fall again
God believes in you
Deserted by your closest friends
God believes in you
When you're betrayed with a kiss
You turn your cheek to another fist
It dose not have to end like this
God believes in you
Oh, everything matters
If anything matters at all
Everything matters
No matter how big, no matter how small
Oh, God believes in you
God believes in you
When you're so ashamed that you could die
God believes in you
And you can't do right even though you try
God believes in you
Blessed are the ones who grieve
The ones who mourn, the ones who bleed
In sorrow you sow but in joy you reap
God believes in you
My friend, who's husband started chemo in the morning, is the one who introduced this song to me. I can still picture us sitting in the car, listening to this song. What a story God weaves.
So Paul and I just started getting into the planning of the house concert when my daughter asked me to go to a movie, Disney/Pixar's "Inside Out". She texted, "I heard it is a Nancy movie."
We determined after the movie, that it was like being in my head.
Without giving away all of the plot and my interpretation of what happens in the movie, I will say that Disney/Pixar's solution to the problems of life differ from my perspective. I do not believe a wagon fueled by song will launch us to the moon. Imagination, escapism, romantisim, pragmatism, sarcasm or a thousand trips to Disneyland will not solve the problems that we have.
The movie's plot and thoughts around this theme and the dilemma I had with their solution bounced around in my head kinda like heffalumps and woozles all night until I woke up, with this thought,
"Only the Truth of His Love and Grace can save us from ourselves."
Nothing romantic or warm fuzzies about an innocent man dying on a cross in my place. The story of the cross that is told is the Truth that I believe. That is the truth with the big T. My broken soul and body is on a train ride to something, and someplace better, lighter, more loving with a capital L. No more tears. No more death. No more fake love, only His Real Love.
So I ride this daily train with the problems, evil, sin, etc., believing, knowing that He has the master plan/design that appears flawed to us, but is wonderfully made. Buckle up.
*My last published blog was about my friend/brother that I mentioned above. I don't need to read it again. I know that he is even a better man that he was four years ago.

Directory of aquarium fish and invertebrates
In the aquarium in most cases, contains several species of fish. So when selecting them you need to pay special attention to match the requirements of the conditions of keeping and feeding. According to data available at the present time there are about 300 species of aquarium fish, but more than half of them are rare. When krasnovidova the content of the fish is very difficult to create optimal conditions for each species. I mean the lighting, temperature, vegetation, and oxygen feed mode, the thickness of the layer of water, its cruelty and acidity. However, many fish species are characterized by their ability to adapt to environment conditions.
Many aspiring Amateur aquarists strive to keep in the aquarium more vibrant and beautiful fish, oblivious to the fact that you can not find them only in appearance. Survival, development and reproduction of fishes is a complex process. While much will need to be taken into account. Continue reading

- On the fifth episode of her new TLC series "Dr. Pimple Popper," dermatologist Dr. Sandra Lee treated a patient named Nicole with a growth in her armpit.
- Nicole says the growth popped up when she started breastfeeding her daughter, and it's persisted for 11 years.
- One doctor told Nicole that it might be a collection breast milk that migrated when she was breastfeeding.
- Lee dubbed the lump a "third boob," removed part of it, then sent to the tissue to a lab for identification.
- It turned out to be extra breast tissue.
- INSIDER spoke with a lactation expert who said that it's a real but rare occurrence.
- Warning: This post contains graphic images.
Dr. Sandra Lee's new TLC series "Dr. Pimple Popper" is nearing the end of its first season, and so far, she's tackled far more the standard lumps and bumps that made her famous on YouTube. Yes, she's still popping plenty of explosive cysts and lipomas. But throughout the series, Lee has also encountered patients with unusual medical conditions that manifest in the skin, including one woman who has excess fat only on one side of her body, and another who's covered in thousands of tiny tumors.
The fifth episode of the series, which aired Wednesday night, featured a patient named Nicole with yet another unusual condition: An 11-year-old armpit lump that Lee dubbed a "third boob."
That's not just a fun nickname, either. INSIDER spoke with a lactation expert who said some people really can grow extra breast tissue in their underarms. Here's what to know about the rare phenomenon and Nicole's story.
Nicole says her armpit growth has been around for 11 years
In an interview filmed at her home, Nicole explains that she's had a baseball-size bump in her armpit ever since she breastfed her first daughter.
"[It] kind of formed overnight," she says. "It freaked me out."
Nicole saw several doctors before one offered a potential explanation for the bump.
"The third doctor had answers for me. He said that it was common in nursing mothers [for breast milk] to go up into the underarm area and cause this third breast," she says. "The doctor said ... the best course of action was to let it go down on its own, and in roughly one to two years that it should go back to normal. Unfortunately, 11 years later, it is still chilling right there."
Lee dubs it a "third boob" and removes some of the extra tissue
Nicole arrives at Lee's office for an exam, and at first, Lee isn't sure what to make of the bump. But she opts to make an incision in the skin in order to see what's underneath.
"Nicole's other doctors have warned her that this could be migrated breast tissue or extra breast milk so I don't know what I'm going to find under here," Lee says.
"Say goodbye to the third boob," she adds, just before she begins the procedure.
Upon opening the skin, Lee discovers fatty tissue, though she can't tell just by looking whether it's normal fat or extra breast tissue. She trims some of the fat with scissors and follows with a cautery machine, which uses heat to shape the fat.
"I use the electrocautery device to help with bleeding, mainly," Lee says. "I use it to cauterize little blood vessels. But in this case I'm also using it to sculpt the fat and shrink it. It's the same as if you have bacon and you put it on the griddle. If you heat it up, it shrivels up."
Finally, Lee says that she'll send a sample of the tissue to a lab to have it examined under a microscope. During the episode, the diagnosis is never revealed. But in a behind-the-scenes blog post published on her website The Pretty Pimple, Lee wrote that Nicole's third boob was officially identified as accessory gynecomastia.
"This lump happened when a small amount of breast tissue traveled to her armpit at some point during her life, and then it expanded after she got pregnant," Lee wrote in the post.
A lactation expert told INSIDER this is a real but rare occurrence
INSIDER consulted lactation expert Getty Greenman, IBCLC, of Breastfeeding with Love, to learn more about this type of growth. She said that some people happen to be born with extra breast tissue in their underarm area. (This makes more sense when you know that, during gestation, our early breast tissue develops in two parallel lines that extend all the way from the groin to the armpits, Greenman explained.)
"Believe it or not, it can happen in men as well as women," Greenman told INSIDER via email. "The percentage is rare. [It happens in] 1 to 2 percent of our population."
"Extra mammary tissue is usually located in the underarm area and may not be noticed until you go through a hormonal change which makes them more apparent," she added. "Additionally, lactation can cause accessory breast tissue to increase in size and or produce milk, possibly experiencing fluctuating swelling and tenderness in this area."
Greenman said some doctors may recommend hot or cold packs to address this swelling. And in some cases, they might recommend cosmetic surgery to remove extra breast tissue.
Of course, there are many other reasons why a person might experience an underarm lump, including inflammation, mastitis or engorgement during lactation, abscesses, cysts, benign lumps, and malignant tumors, according to Greenman. So it's important to get help if you notice a concerning change.
"As always, if you feel something is not right in your body, consult your doctor," she said.
After surgery, Nicole's extra breast tissue was noticeably reduced
A brief follow-up interview after the surgery showed that Nicole's incision healed with only a slight scar. Her third boob was almost completely eliminated.
"I have higher self esteem now," Nicole says. "I'm no longer beating myself up when I look in the mirror and look at it. I'm wearing more tank tops. I feel like I look 100% better. Dr Lee ... helped me accomplish something I've been waiting ten years for."

Private Label Wound Care
|Contract Manufacturing
|Adhesives & Laminates
|Advanced Wound Care
SMP is a new entrepreneurial Florida based company that has a number of strengths supporting its mission:
SMP's multidisciplinary expertise coupled with a determination to engineer cost out of the development and production process should make SMP a strategic partner worthy of your consideration.
SMP Hydrocolloid Formulations:
SMP's hydrocolloid dressing adhesive formulations are composed of natural occurring substances that turn into to a gel when they come into contact with wound fluid. These particles are embedded in an inert polymer matrix that provides the desired level of cohesiveness required to prevent leaving any residue in the wound.
The outer most layer of the dressing is covered by a polyurethane film or foam that have a low coefficient of friction. This outer cover reinforces the dressing's barrier properties and helps to reduce the impact of friction and shear which contribute to ulcer formation.
When placed over a wound, these dressings create a moist environment. This environment helps to speed the natural healing process, reduce pain, facilitate the removal of debris and protect against bacteria and other external contaminants.
Indications: Dry to minimally draining acute and chronic wounds. Ideal for "at-risk sites and post healing protection
Indications: Mild to moderately exuding acute and chronic wounds where cushioning may be helpful.
Indications: Mild to moderately exuding acute and chronic wounds where establishing a secure seal may be a challenge.
Indications: Superficial, dry to mildly exuding post–surgical incision sites, wounds and abrasions.
