Starting early for Halloween
Halloween is getting closer and we like starting early. This year we are putting or should I say digging two or three graves in the front yard. They will be motorized so the tops of the coffins go up and down as people are approaching. One other great thing is we're designing a remote control ghost to chase the kids around in the front yard. The ghost will be made from an old RC truck that we've had for years.

A Dork By Any Other Name18
So it's not secret that I'm a huge dork. I'm into most of the basics in dork culture ranging from comic books and video games to action figures and yes, even Anime. I'm about to reveal something that will plunge me somewhat further down the ladder in the Dork Hierarchy chart though. Years ago, when the Anime series Dragonball Z was really picking up steam on the American airwaves thanks to Cartoon Network, I, along with a few friends, ran a text-based online RPG based on the series. I'll wait while you laugh. It's OK. You can get it out. I'm not ashamed.
Each of us had tried out a couple of these online RPGs and were disappointed with the results. The creators of the games cheated quite a deal and it was next to impossible to level up or have any sort of chance against the people that ran the site or their friends. So we got to thinking and ended up making our own rules that were not only fair, but were in range with the way the show actually worked. It was around that time that I ended up ordering a shit load of bootleg VHS tapes off of ebay just before the boom of DVDs in my life. My friends and I set up this site online for the RPG and started recruiting from the other crappy games. Thus the game began. (more…)

Pretentiously Stupid Names Given To Hapless Children Who Currently Attend Pacific Primary: A Partial List
I get the feeling that all you have to do to get in to Pac Prim during the exclusive admissions process is name your kids after inanimate objects, or make up a name entirely. Bonus points if you can make your made-up name sound like another word ("Wynant" sounds alternately like "whinin'" or "why not"), or if you can spell a normal name in a completely unpredictable way such as "Ghaiyne" pronounced "Jane" (ok, I made that one up, but it's not far off).
Admission 1: I actually think "Sterling" is almost cute, but more for a boy than a girl, right? Poor kid.
Admission 2: Yes, I used to (USED TO!) watch America's Next Top Model, which is why I know that "Brown" was a name forced upon a poor desperate skinny girl by Tyra Banks many seasons ago, simply because the girl had the same name as someone else, so I am already sort of set against the name- except oh wait, it's NOT A NAME. But this aside- WHAT IF THE KID YOU NAMED "BROWN" HAD TURNED OUT TO HAVE BLOND OR RED HAIR?
It all reminds me of this.

Fast-growing lymphoma cells are very similar to fast-growing normal cells in the body. Therefore, pediatric lymphoma treatments can also harm normal cells in the process of destroying the disease.
For more than 35 years, our pediatrics team has selected approaches that minimize and treat the unavoidable physical side effects of cancer therapy. The most significant side effect of lymphoma treatment is low counts of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. These and other side effects are usually temporary and improve after the dose of the medication is reduced or after treatment has ended.
We also have experts who can help patients and families manage the anxiety, stress, and other psychosocial challenges that emerge when a child is ill.
Preventing Infection
To help prevent and treat infections that result from low white blood cell counts associated with lymphoma and its treatments, we make sure our patients are appropriately treated with antibiotics. Our doctors discovered a therapy for severely low levels of a type of white blood cell, which reduces the risk of infection. The therapy, called granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF), is now used around the world.
In addition, to protect your child from exposure to infections, we might request that he or she stay in an isolated room, and that visitors wear gowns, masks, and gloves as preventive measures. It is essential for visitors with any sign of cold or other infection to avoid contact with a child who is undergoing treatment for lymphoma.
Managing Low Platelet & Red Blood Cell Counts
Low platelet counts can mean that your child bruises and bleeds easily, so we can help teach you injury-prevention techniques. We might recommend that your child receive a transfusion of platelets to reduce the risk of bleeding, or that female patients who are at the age of menstruation receive hormones to temporarily stop their periods. It is very important for children who have low platelet counts to avoid medications containing aspirin or ibuprofen because these medications prevent platelets from working properly and can increase the risk of bleeding.
Low red blood cell counts can cause anemia, which can be treated with a blood transfusion to relieve symptoms, including weakness, shortness of breath, and elevated heart rate.
At Memorial Sloan Kettering, we have our own Blood Bank and Donor Room. Our platelet and blood supplies are as safe as possible. However, it is important to minimize the number of transfusions. We encourage you to bring in friends and family to donate blood. If the donated blood is healthy and is of the same blood type as your child, we can arrange to direct these donations to your child.
Coping with Hair Loss & Other Physical Side Effects
Another type of fast-growing cell affected by lymphoma treatments is cells in the hair follicles. Most children will temporarily lose their hair two to three weeks after starting chemotherapy. This can be distressing to parents and patients, especially teenagers. You or your child will have the opportunity to speak with former patients about the process of losing and regaining their hair. We can also help you find wigs, hats, and scarves.
Other side effects from some chemotherapy medications can include:
- fatigue
- nausea and vomiting
- diarrhea
- change in the taste of foods
- abnormal sensations in the fingers and toes
- poor balance
- painful mouth ulcers/inflammation of mucous membranes in the mouth and gastrointestinal tract, which can be managed with oral care routines, pain medications, and special diets
After a lasting remission period, delayed effects of therapy can occasionally be seen in various organs, such as the liver, heart, lungs, ovaries, or testes. Chemotherapy can sometimes cause infertility or the development of a second cancer. These are very rare effects, but the team monitors each patient closely to identify and address long-term issues.
Dealing with Emotional Effects
The initial course of treatment, physical side effects, stress of hospitalization, lack of sleep, and homesickness can be very difficult for children and families — especially for siblings who may not understand the sudden switch in focus from the family's usual daily activities to the needs of the child with lymphoma.
Patients frequently regress, act younger than their age, and act out. Patients receiving steroids as part of chemotherapy can have temporary personality changes or become moody and irritable. In addition, children and young adults often find it difficult — even overwhelming — to carry on their normal activities.
Our team at Memorial Sloan Kettering will do everything in our power to minimize the discomfort, sadness, and stress that are common during treatment. Social workers, psychiatrists, psychologists, play therapists, child life specialists, and volunteers are available to help you and your child cope with the ups and downs.
We can also arrange for you to speak with patients who have experienced a similar process and have successfully overcome their disease. There is strength in numbers, and knowing you are not alone may provide comfort. In addition, clergy are available to listen and provide spiritual support and guidance. Social workers can also help with financial issues related to treatment.
Even though a child or teen is being treated for cancer, he or she does not need to fall behind on schoolwork. We have a branch of the New York City Public School System, called P.S. 401, assigned to Memorial Sloan Kettering. Teachers are available daily to help inpatient and outpatient children keep up with their studies during the treatment and recovery process.

March 17, 2017
Using the Congressional Review Act, which only requires a majority for passage by the Senate, the Senate has voted 49 to 48 to permanently block former President Obama's Fair Pay and Safe Workplaces (a.k.a, Blacklisting) Executive Order. Three Republican Senators were not present for the vote. Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-GA), Chairman of the Employment and Workplace Safety Subcommittee, said: "The so-called blacklisting rule is yet another Obama-era regulation that exceeds the authority of government, is duplicative and violates due process rights for businesses." The House had already passed the disapproval resolution and President Trump is expected to sign it. In October 2016, a federal judge in Texas put most of the implementing regulations on hold, but allowed separate pay information obligations to go into effect in January. The Congressional measure would strike down the entire final rule (including the pay information obligation) and preclude the FAR Council from ever publishing a similar regulation in the future. Over the past two years, HR Policy has helped lead the effort to overturn the rule because it would have undermined the integrity of the federal contracting process and denied due process rights to contractors.

What's the difference between Sales and Marketing?
So in my career prior to be an entrepreneur going out on my own I had never had experience in sales and marketing. When I held positions all were either in technical aptitude or they were in an operations role where I managed a piece of a logistical process.
Well for as long as I can remember I have always had a passion for business and entrepreneurship.
Never did I think for a second would I be a sales guy, not me!? I was wrong, DEAD wrong because everything we do daily we are selling. Let me explain.
So, picture yourself in an interview…. What are you doing? You are selling yourself to the prospective hiring 'Interviewer'.
When a teacher is trying to get her third grade class to calm down and listen to the lesson (probably addition and subtraction at this grade) she is selling to the children.
People get hung up on the entire name 'sales' and I will be first to admit I was one of them. The deeper I got into running personal businesses I was asked the question a few times but not knowing how to answer it I have researched it and it was mind blowing to me. Not because it is some magical trigonometry equation but because it is so basic like elementary basic!
So I might as well answer it here…
It doesn't require fancy words or complex models or concepts.
Listen up, marketing is everything you do to get a customer into the door or a lead into your company. Let me simplify this sentence even more.
Marketing is what brings the customers to the business. About.com sums it up nicely in their first sentence here.
Now let's flip the switch and move onto sales. Sales is a 1 on 1, interaction with the customer on the sales floor, on the sales call or at the consultation. I love to use examples so let me illustrate this because this is a real life example I will use.
Bottom line, sales is the actual act of well in my case using a sales approach. I train sales people on one that I use frequently (READ model). Basically your employee builds the relationship, establishes the need, advances the solution and then closes the sale but this ONLY happens once you have customers that come to you (you won't survive if they are not coming).
When a smoothie/nutrition store was opened the sales were slow not picking up to where the sales forecast was budgeted for.
One immediate thing that popped out was foot traffic there was not enough. So while discussing and presenting to the other
it was very clear not enough people were coming in to the store in order to close on sales.
The ticket average was decent for the employees but we knew they needed sales training but even after calculating their sales average where they should have been it was still short.
Customers per day was the issue. I quickly laid out a plan and offered one simple suggestion to the owner (free smoothie cards to the gym go-ers)and he was hesitant.
Now I know sometimes the truth hurts but at this point it was imperative for the small business owner
to see.
There are two options, either your employees can sit there waiting for someone to come in (they were staring at the walls)or you can hand out x number of free smoothie cards in order to drive foot traffic and at least have the opportunity to sell to people who normally either would not have known about you or simply not have come in.
Boom after the first week the increase of foot traffic was over 35% and cost was less than a full tank of gas for the COGS.
Let me drive this point home.
An integrated marketing to sales process, is a huge advantage. It is very common to see small to medium businesses understand and maintain
this relationship because typically they have maintained their entrepreneurial spirit of wearing all hats.
So, the most simplest statement I think is the strongest statement and will wake up all business owners. Either sit there
and wait or get out there and get them in the door, marketing! If you are an online only business then it's even more critical for you to
do internet marketing since there are over a billion websites on the internet. How will someone know you are there? Internet marketing is one field I specialize in
am doing work with some sites now in order to bring marketing to them in order to drive new traffic which is monetized.
Your Partner,
Joe Carrera
Internet Marketing Coach

Megha Venketasamy, Women Circle Facilitator, The She Stands Tall Project
This World shivers when women gather; This World retaliates when women gather; This world mocks when women gather; This World curses when women gather; This World discomforts at the gathering of women.
Women discomfort at the gathering of women.
What is about women gathering that creates so much fuss?
Any act of bringing people together in a moment in time grounded in intentions, carries the potentials to break through. Such acts serve the path of any individual on his/her way to grow a touch more aware of his/her beliefs, stories, discomforts, patterns and selves. This is what we term as CONSCIOUS AWARENESS. When one BECOMES CONSCIOUSLY AWARE, then one STARTS LIVING CONSCIOUSLY and CONSCIOUS LIVING IS CONNECTED TO CONSCIOUS CHOICES. This act SHATTERS the TENTACLES of our PATRIARCHAL SYSTEM. We FRAME these instances as SHIFTING and TRANSFORMING.
At the core of bringing women in circles lies the intention of activating the innate connectedness that women have shared from the beginning of time. There is nothing new to women journeying in circles – our great grandmothers did it and ancient communities knew it. The patriarchal system that we live in has invested energy, time and fears in building women against one another – shaming, naming, slutting, belittling – you name it.
Women Circles create safe spaces to allow women to move inwards to see, feel, hear and listen to their stories, beliefs, values, wounds, woundedness, connectedness, disconnectedness, relationships, life and world. Women Circles teach women to embrace both their light and shadow selves.
Women Circles teach women to ask this one vital question "Where is the soul?"
This World shivers when women gather; This World retaliates when women gather; This World mocks when women gather; This World curses when women gather; This World discomforts at the gathering of women.
So Be it!
Women gathering moves women in spaces to reclaim their stories and cast spells unto their selves so that they rise to reconciliate with this world. This is the power of circles, this is the power of words, this is the power of consciously crafting and sealing agreements with and within our selves and the external world.
Our world carries undermining, harmful and belittling agreements for and against women, colored people, indigenous people and minority groups.
Women have a key role to play in reclaiming, reconciling and peacebuilding. Yet this process cannot happen unless women stand within and through their stories and start their inner reclaiming, reconciliation and peace building. The activist that I am, have chosen to invest of my self, my time and my resources in bringing women in circles.
When women come together, the space will by default align itself to make shifts and transformations possible. Intention matters and so does the one who facilitates.
We need structures, strategists, scientists, economists, politicians, healers, mid-wives, artists, creators, rainmakers and peacemakers to shift this world. But we also need women who will vulnerably show up and by so doing hold the mirror for other women to start their inward descend.

Alex Moulton, Master Bicycle Designer, 1920- 2012
In 1956, the Suez Crisis caused a shortage of gasoline in Britain and the introducing of rationing. (Don't know about it? Watch The Hour) Engineer Alex Moulton was involved in a number of responses to the high cost of gas: The Austin Mini (he designed the lightweight rubber suspension that helped keep the car small and light) and the Moulton Bike. According to the Guardian,
Moulton's bike, launched to enormous interest in 1962, was a reinvention of the classical bicycle. He used small wheels, which he argued gave better acceleration and faster overall speeds; springs, again of rubber, and a new feature on bicycles; and a new design of the step-through frame – he considered the top tube of the traditional bike dangerous and an obstacle to dismounting in emergency. The Moulton went through many evolutions from his original "F" frame to later exotic handbuilt stainless steel space-frame machines. However, the success of his design showed their practicality and pointed the way for other small-wheeled and stowable bikes.
Norman Foster called it "the greatest work of 20th-century British design."
The space frame design that I so lust after was not the original; it was developed in the 80s and is still made by his grand-nephew at Moulton Bicycles. It is built by hand and isn't cheap, and isn't mass-produced; Moulton wrote that "Man should make things … Make a profit, of course, but don't take the money gain as the prime judgment."
Alex Moulton, dead at 92.

Invisalign is the most advanced clear aligner system in the world. With over 20 years of clinical research and more than 700 patents, Invisalign is the clear choice for teeth straightening.
After your initial consultation, a digital scan of your teeth (or physical impression) will be used to custom make a clear aligner. Each aligner is virtually invisible, and will shift your teeth horizontally and vertically with just the right amount of force.
When comparing Invisalign with other teeth straightening options, the end result is the same, a beautiful smile. It's in the teeth-straightening process where Invisalign truly shines. Unlike braces, Invisalign aligners can easily be removed, allowing you to brush and floss your teeth as you normally would. They can also be removed every time you eat, meaning there is no need to avoid gum, popcorn, nuts, or any other foods restricted by braces.
Cleaning your Invisalign aligners is a breeze, just add it to your bedtime routine. Brush your teeth and then brush your aligners and rinse in lukewarm water. Simple. Finally, playing contact sports with Invisalign removes the worry of sharp brackets cutting your mouth. Simply remove your aligner, pop in your mouth guard and you're good to go!
Most Invisalign treatments range from $2500-$5500 in Edmonton, however a consultation with our dental office is the best plan determine the exact cost of your Invisalign treatment. Many factors are used in determining the cost including:

Jobs are as important for our characters as they are for real people. A character's career might be their dream job or one they've chosen due to necessity. In your story, they might be trying to get that job or are already working in the field. Whatever the situation, as with any defining aspect for your character, you'll need to do the proper research to be able to write that career knowledgeably.
Enter the Occupation Thesaurus. Here, you'll find important background information on a variety of career options for your character. In addition to the basics, we'll also be covering related info that relates to character arc and story planning, such as sources of conflict (internal and external) and how the job might impact basic human needs, thereby affecting the character's goals. It's our hope that this thesaurus will share some of your research burden while also giving you ideas about your character's occupation that you might not have considered before.
Occupation: Tour Guide
Overview: Similar to an Outdoor Guide, a tour guide is someone who acts as a knowledgeable companion for a group of people wishing to experience local sights in a safe and educational way. Excursions might be a few hours (usually at a landmark location like a museum or a walking tour of an urban center) to several weeks, depending on the type of tour. Guides travel with their group, showing them landmarks, historical sites, and other areas of interest, encouraging tourists to immerse themselves in the culture, activities, cuisine, and adventure of the place they have traveled to.
If the tour is a longer one, the guide is also the go-between when it comes to hotel accommodation, restaurant reservations, travel arrangements, transfers, etc. and will interpret between clients and locals if there is a language barrier. They also advise travelers on how to purchase items (bartering), hot to secure transport for non-group activities, and make recommendations for things to see and do with one's free time. Guides will also ensure travelers in their care understand local laws and customs, and will pass on any other dangers to watch out for (if there are any). Tour guides may operate within a city, take their group to multiple locations in a specified area, travel with them to different parts of the country, or even accompany the group on a multi-country trip.
Necessary Training: Education will depend on the type of guiding the character is doing, but many will have a degree in the area of tourism and travel as well as supplemental training and education that pertains to their area of focus. For example, a guide who focuses on a specific location such as a museum or historical site will have in-depth knowledge of that area, and possibly even an art history degree. If a guide covers a specific town or city, they will have significant knowledge of the history, landmarks, culture, arts, and language of that location, and will be able to answer a range of questions their clients may ask, everything from the specifics surrounding the type of tour and historical and cultural facts of the area to what to see and do after the tour is over.
Tour guides that take longer excursions will have a broader skill set as they will be required to not only be knowledgeable about each area they visit, but to also organizing all management aspects of the trip including accommodation, tickets, transfers, etc. and deal with any problems as they crop up. If the tour includes outdoor camping and overland travel, just as an outdoor guide would, they are in charge of camp management and transport (often driving the group from location to location for part or all of the trip). If the tour is international, they will navigate clients through border crossings and customs which may be very different from the processes they are used to in their home country. Guides have extensive knowledge of the areas they visit and be able to ensure the safety of their guests at all times and will receive a great deal training and mentor ship from the guiding company they are affiliated with.
Many guides speak a second language or even multiple languages as this helps with the work they do (and becomes a side effect of spending so much time with different cultures as they travel). Most will require a license to operate. Because this is a people-focused occupation, they are often extroverted, love travel and adventure, have a friendly disposition, and excel at organization and time management.

My four year old is opinionated (I have no idea where she gets this from). Here are her thoughts on Dreamworks Annimation's latest feature:
Kung Fu Panda is 1hr and 31min. It's classified as Action/Adventure/Family.
Did you like Kung Fu Panda?
No way.
Why not?
Because it was like fire hoya- sing. I did not like it.
Can you elaborate?
It was like firing balls, shooting to the baby and then like the bear went hoy-a! because he didn't want to get fired.
What do you mean he didn't want to get fired?
There was fire balls. The mean pirates were trying to fire Kung Fu Panda.
Did you like anything about the movie?
No. I said get out here Dadda. Get out here!
What would make it better?
If I was brave.
What do you mean?
I don't know. I liked the good part.
What's the good part?
It's...that...(pause) when Kung Fu Panda was in his home family.
Anything else you want to say?
How many stars would you give this movie?

Mar. May
Fixed Horizontal Single-Axis Tracked
Fixed (39° tilt) Dual-Axis Tracked
A good site for a tracked array receives dawn-to-dusk sun. There's no point in buying a tracker if your site doesn't begin receiving sunlight until 10 in the morning, or loses it at 2 in the afternoon due to shading from hillsides, trees, or buildings. When located at a site with a wide-open solar window, a tracked array will generate approximately 25% to 40% more energy annually than a static array.
There are two forms of PV tracking: single axis and dual axis. The single-axis method follows the sun's path from east to west, with the array tilted at a fixed or manually adjustable angle off the horizon. This approach is common in large-scale, commercial installations but can be used in residential applications as well.
Dual-axis trackers adjust the PV array to track the sun's path from east to west and adjust the array's tilt to account for the change in the sun's altitude.
Trackers come in two basic types: electrically operated and thermally operated (referred to as "active" and "passive"). Common electrically operated trackers for residential systems typically rely on photosensors that signal motors (via a controller) to orient the array toward the sun as its position changes throughout the day. Thermally operated trackers use the transfer of mass (weight) to follow the sun. In a passive system, a canister and shading fin is attached to the east and west sides of the tracker. These tubes are filled with a material—usually Freon— that vaporizes (becomes a gas) at relatively low temperatures. As the sun hits one canister, the warmed Freon vaporizes and pushes some of the cooler liquid Freon to the other side. This process transfers weight from the one side of the tracker to the other and orients the array toward the sun.
Both electrical and thermal trackers have associated advantages and disadvantages. The big advantage of electrical trackers is that they are extremely precise and will generate more energy for a given period than passive trackers. But electrical trackers are not without their weak points. Because they rely on electronics and electric motors, their reliability is lower than thermally operated trackers. Electrical trackers are also sensitive to damage from lightning. The manufacturers of these trackers have made great strides in making their products resistant to lightning damage, but in the event of a close or direct strike, damage still may occur.
Due to their simplicity, thermal trackers have proven to be very durable in the field. On the downside, because they rely on solar heat, these trackers can be slow to respond. At night, they remain facing west and rely on early morning sunlight to return to the east. This process may take an hour or more depending on ambient temperature. In winter weather, thermal trackers can be somewhat sluggish and imprecise in performance because they are dependent on building up enough heat to vaporize the Freon.
Whether a tracker will be cost effective for your application will depend in part on your seasonal electrical use patterns. Trackers give you more gain in the summer when the days are longer, with somewhat less improvement in the winter. For grid-tied systems with annual net metering, this can be a bonus because the tracker's excess summer production will help offset your winter utility bill. In PV-direct (batteryless) water-pumping systems, trackers with as few as two PV modules can be cost-effective compared to buying additional modules to pump the amount of water required.

Among my various afflictions I am one of those unfortunates afflicted with wanderlust, a terrible condition (according to SWMBO) that causes me to become increasingly crabby and difficult to be around if I am confined to one locality for any extended period.
For that reason there will be a temporary hiatus on this blog until early May while I wander all over South America seeking a cure for it. If I am lucky, I'll fail in my quest...
In the interim I will post occasional trip reports, subject to the whims of internet cafes, wi-fi availability and upload speed on my travel blog for anyone interested.
I look forward to returning refreshed and relaxed.
Cheers, Alan

Aside from crossover title, Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney, Level 5 are also working on the next game in the Professor Layton series itself. In reply to a fan over Twitter, Level 5 CEO, Akihiro Hino, dropped a vague hint about the next Layton game.
More Layton can only be a good thing. It will probably be on 3DS though, so I'll have to buy that to play it. Oh, well. I was going to at some point anyway.

George Q. Turner and Marcellus Turner:
Julia Amanda Turner Batchelor Miller, Benjamin Franklin Batchelor and James Miller:
A Guide to the Amasa Turner Papers, 1827-1990
Biographical Note
Born in Massachusetts, Amasa Turner (1800-1877) moved to Mobile, Alabama, where he joined the lumber business in 1825. The next year, Turner married Julia Morse, another Massachusetts native living in Texas. The couple had four children, including George Quincy, Marcellus Granville, and Julia Amanda. In 1835, the family moved to Texas to help Amasa recover from yellow fever. He enlisted in the Texas Revolutionary Army, fighting at Gonzales, San Antonio, and the Siege of Bexar. As a recruiting officer, he raised an infantry company, which fought at the Battle of San Jacinto on April 21, 1836, and the next May, he became colonel at Galveston. After resigning in August 1837, the Customs Collector Gail Borden, Jr., appointed Amasa as Boarding Officer. During his tenure, Amasa constructed a customs house, the Galveston Hotel, wharves, an icehouse, and several other buildings. In 1839, the family moved to a farm in Harris County to raise cattle and grow cotton, before moving to a plantation in Lavaca County in 1847. From 1851 to 1854, Amasa served in the Texas House of Representatives, and during the Civil War, he was provost marshal of Lavaca County. In 1865, he moved to Gonzales, where he became active in the construction business, served as a Ruling Elder of the Presbyterian Church, and participated in the local Masonic lodge.
Brothers George Quincy Turner (1828-1864) and Marcellus Granville Turner (1829-1864) traveled to California with their cousin Bushrod Wilkins and friend Benjamin Franklin "Frank" Batchelor during the Gold Rush of 1849. Upon their return to Texas, Marcellus invested in ranching in Aransas Bay and married Mary Reeves in 1853, while George wrote for local newspapers and took over his father's plantation in Lavaca County. Both brothers enlisted in the Confederate Army. George served in Terry's Texas Rangers before becoming ill and dying in March 1864. Marcellus served in the 3rd Battalion of Cavalry as captain and acting quartermaster until his death in April 1864.
Born May 24, 1838, Julia Amanda Turner (1838-1912) was reputedly the first white female born on Galveston Island. She married her brothers' friend Benjamin Franklin "Frank" Batchelor (ca. 1831-1864) on July 23, 1859. While serving in the Confederate Army, Batchelor was killed near Rome, Georgia, in October 1864. Two years later, Julia married banker James F. Miller (d. 1902), who had served in Terry's Texas Rangers during the Civil War. Miller and William Sayers started the Miller & Sayers Bank in Gonzales and served as the first president of the Texas Bankers Association. From 1883 to 1887, Miller served in the U. S. Congress and as the chairman of the Committee on Currency and Banking. Julia served as the first president of the Daughters of the Republic of Texas. Florence Cornelia, daughter of Julia and Frank Batchelor, married Thomas Franklin Harwood in 1884.

Most inhalants are common household products that give off mind-altering chemical fumes when sniffed. These common products include paint thinner, fingernail polish remover, glues, gasoline, cigarette lighter fluid, and nitrous oxide. They also include fluorinated hydrocarbons found in aerosols, such as whipped cream, hair and paint sprays, and computer cleaners. The chemical structure of the various types of inhalants is diverse, making it difficult to generalize about the effects of inhalants. It is known, however, that the vaporous fumes can change brain chemistry and may be permanently damaging to the brain and central nervous system.
Inhalant users are also at risk for Sudden Sniffing Death (SSD), which can occur when the inhaled fumes take the place of oxygen in the lungs and central nervous system. This basically causes the inhalant user to suffocate. Inhalants can also lead to death by disrupting the normal heart rhythm, which can lead to cardiac arrest. Use of inhalants can cause hepatitis, liver failure, and muscle weakness. Certain inhalants can also cause the body to produce fewer of all types of blood cells, which may result in life-threatening aplastic anemia.
Inhalants also alter the functioning of the nervous system. Some of these effects are transient and disappear after use is discontinued. But inhalant use can also lead to serious neurological problems, some of which are irreversible. For example, frequent longterm use of certain inhalants can cause a permanent change or malfunction of nerves in the back and legs, called polyneuropathy. Inhalants can also act directly in the brain to cause a variety of neurological problems. For instance, inhalants can cause abnormalities in brain areas that are involved in movement (for example, the cerebellum) and higher cognitive function (for example, the cerebral cortex).

The National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) invites musicians, songwriters, sound and recording professionals, music educators and students to experience Summer NAMM during Music Industry Day. Held on Saturday, June 25 at Nashville's Music City Center, Music Industry Day will open the doors to NAMM's members-only tradeshow to learn and connect at professional workshops, see the latest in new gear from leading musical instrument manufacturers, and to enjoy a multitude of artist performances and events.
The final day.
Day 3 at NAMM continued with more new gear and seeing more friends, hearing more music, and getting sorer feet by the minute! But it was all worth it! All of the NAMM U and TEC Tracks Sessions had lines to get in on Saturday and at full capacity, so I made use of my time seeing whatever I could, including some live shows and more awesome gear.
Day 2 of NAMM 2016 started out with keynote speaker, Tony Brown, at the TEC Tracks Sessions, with an informative talk about his career and how important it is to take advantage of opportunities. Often credited as the founding father of the Americana country movement, Tony took us from his early days playing keyboards for Elvis and Emmylou Harris to becoming an A&R guy for labels in Nashville then moving all of the way to producing musicians from Reba McEntire, Tricia Yearwood and more recently, Cyndi Lauper! He entertained us with his stories while teaching us how to dive into situations and just believe in yourself. His words about his friends saying "You are so lucky" when he would get a gig with a famous musician or singer, really hit me. He said luck is just the combination of preparedness plus opportunity. He made us all feel confident walking out to tackle the day! More about Tony here: http://www.tonybrownenterprises.com Thanks to NAMM, the TEC Tracks Sessions have been valuable to many different types of conference attendees.
Using a great word coined by gal pal Angel Hanson, CMP, CMM - Event Marketing Manager for Microsoft who hosts a killer party every year, the SheNAMMigans that went on at this year's NAMM show in Anaheim, CA, outdid themselves! There was a lot of SHE in those SheNAMMigans! I found so many women in all areas, from panelists to artists to owner/merchants, that this year really seemed as though we have become less of "woman-owned" or "female band" or "chick guitar player" and more of just "owner," "band" and "player." What a great year for us!

Migrant crisis: Denmark MPs consider seizing valuables
Plans to seize the assets of asylum seekers are among controversial new measures on immigration being debated by MPs in Denmark.
The proposals have been condemned by the UN refugee agency and human rights groups. They say they go against international rules on refugees.
Prime Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen has called the plan the "most misunderstood bill in Denmark's history".
The bill is expected to be voted on later in the month.
The government on Tuesday secured a parliamentary majority to alter the proposed legislation to allow the Danish authorities to seize migrants' cash and other individual items worth more than 10,000 kroner (£1,000; €1,340, $1,450).
Wedding rings and other items of sentimental value will not be included.
The move has been likened by some commentators to the treatment of Jews by Nazi Germany during the Holocaust.
Separately on Wednesday, the government announced it would extend temporary controls at its border with Germany for a further 20 days.
The controls were brought in on 4 January to prevent an influx of migrants after neighbouring Sweden imposed temporary controls on its borders.
Denmark said on Wednesday that 31,000 border checks had taken place on its border with Germany in the past 10 days and 200 people had been refused entry.
Europe's frosty welcome - by Jonny Dymond, BBC News
"Refugees are welcome here," chanted crowds of Germans gathered at Munich railway station last September.
A few months on and the mood in Germany and much of the rest of Europe is very different.
Concerns over integration, the economic burden and security have risen sharply. In many countries, barbed wire has replaced open borders. And, after the Paris attacks, the Poles refused to take any migrants.
The New Year's Eve sex attacks in Cologne by men of a mainly migrant background has led to harsh questions about Western values and integration.
Sweden, traditionally welcoming to refugees, has introduced border checks, and Denmark has followed suit as it tries to dissuade migrants from coming. Europe is a much less hospitable place for migrants than it seemed last summer.
'Symbolic' measures
The ruling centre-right Venstre party - backed by its right-wing allies, the anti-immigration Danish People's Party, the Liberal Alliance and the Conservative People's Party - has promised to get tough on immigration since its election in June.
Integration Minister Inger Stojberg said the measures simply put migrants on an equal footing with jobless Danes, who must sell assets above a certain level to claim benefits.
She said the assets would help pay for housing, healthcare and some education.
Another heavily criticised part of the bill would delay the reunification of families for up to three years, up from the current one year.
The UN High Commission for Refugees, in its report on the proposed legislation, said the swift reunification of families was enshrined in a number of international conventions it called on Denmark to observe.
The bill also includes measures making it harder to obtain permanent residency and shortening temporary resident permits.
Responding to the plan to seize valuables, UNHCR spokesman William Spindler told the BBC: "Refugees have lost their homes and almost everything they possess.
"It beggars belief that somebody would want to strip them away from the little they have managed to salvage from their lives.
"Refugees need and deserve compassion, understanding, respect and solidarity."
Sofie Carsten Nielsen, an MP with the opposition Social Liberal party, said the bill was designed to "send a signal to refugees... that here in Denmark it's very difficult to come in...
"You will be investigated and you will be ransacked and they will search your bags for every sort of belongings that you have."
Denmark says 21,000 people applied for asylum in 2015 and it expects a similar number this year.
Neighbouring Sweden took in 163,000 and Germany has had more than 1.1 million asylum requests.

Compensation claims are made for a variety of reasons, including personal injury. People who have suffered physical harm through another's negligence or criminal act may well be wondering how to claim compensation. In these cases it is always in the would-be claimant's best interests to make contact with personal injury solicitors.
The role of these solicitors is to advise and represent their clients. Each case is different so it is hard to say how long a claim will take. The most important thing is that personal injury solicitors have the expertise to provide the best service possible for their clients.Find additional information at whiplash compensation.
Hopefully, claimants will not only win their cases but receive the full compensation due for their injuries and suffering. Personal injury can prove to very expensive as the victim may well suffer loss of earnings. Other costs may have to be incurred if the injuries are particular serious. This is why the services of personal injury solicitors should be sought when anyone who has suffered such misfortune is considering how to claim compensation.
Before anyone considers making such a claim he or she must realise they should not have been responsible for the misfortune which has befallen them. The physical hurt must have been caused by another's negligence or criminal action.
If you have suffered an injury because of a criminal act then the police should have become involved. The criminal aspect of the case may well be dealt with in the criminal courts. This does not stop the victim pursuing a claim for compensation which may well be decided in the civil courts.
Anyone injured in a car accident should also tell the police as well as their insurance company.
The merits of any case will be initially considered by a solicitor. A personal injury solicitor will decide if his client really does have a case – that is he was not in any way responsible for the injuries suffered. The decision will be based on the evidence presented to him.
If the legal adviser thinks the client has a viable claim he will write to the defendant. If the case is strong the defendant may decide to accept liability and agree to pay the compensation sum demanded. In such cases there is usually no need to take the case through the civil courts.
If the solicitor's letter is not acknowledged, liability is not accepted, or no agreement is made on the amount of compensation that will be paid the next step will be for the personal injury solicitor to arrange representation in court.

Warrosquyoake Shire
Warrosquoake Shire (with numerous variant spellings, including Warrascoyack,[1] Warrascocke and "Warwick Squeak") was officially formed in 1634 in the Virginia colony, but had already been known as "Warascoyack County" before this. It was renamed Isle of Wight County in 1637.
Shortly after the establishment of Jamestown in 1607, English settlers explored and began settling areas adjacent to Hampton Roads. The shoreline region of Warrascoyack was then occupied by the Warraskoyak tribe of the Powhatan Confederacy, under their weroance, Tackinekintaco. The main Warraskoyak village was located in present-day Smithfield, Virginia, while a satellite village called Mokete was at Pagan Point, and another called Mathomank was on Burwell's Bay under a sub-weroance named Sasenticum. In December 1608, Captain John Smith left Samuel Collier, his page, with Tackinekintaco to learn the language.[2]
The first English plantation in the region, dating to 1618, was that of Puritan merchant Christopher Lawne, and several other Puritans also seated themselves nearby, including Edward Bennett[1] in 1621. He named his plantation Warrosquoake,[1] after the river that also went by the same name. It was heavily hit in the Great Massacre of 1622, losing 53 of the 347 persons killed that day. The plantation was briefly abandoned until a fort could be built nearby; the Warraskoyak Indians were driven off from their villages in the reprisals of the following years. A census of settlers on 16 February 1623 shows a total of "33, including 4 negroes". Another census a year later showed a total population of 31 settlers for the region.[3]
Edward Bennett represented his plantation in the 1628 House of Burgesses, then left for England. The following year, the "County of Warascoyack" was represented by his nephew, Richard Bennett, Captain Nathaniel Basse, and three others, all Puritans.[4] This was the Puritans' strongest representation in the Anglican-dominant colony.[5]
By 1634, by order of the King of England, Charles I, eight shires of Virginia were formed with a total population of 4,914 settlers. Warrosquoake Shire included 522 persons at this time.[6] It and Accomac Shire were the only shires given Native American names for the friendly tribes nearby. It was renamed Isle of Wight County in 1637, after the Isle of Wight, an island in the English channel. The river bearing this name was renamed Pagan River.
During the three years when it was officially Warrosquoake Shire, Richard Bennett led the small Puritan community to neighboring Nansemond, and later fled with them to Maryland. He returned during the Cromwellian period to serve as Governor of Virginia.
Land that was originally portions of the Warrosquoake Shire and Isle of Wight County later formed many other counties to the immediate southwest, in the region now defined as Southside Virginia. Isle of Wight County, Southampton County, Greensville County and Brunswick County were all created within the limits of what had been Warrosquoake Shire.

The AppsFlyer Gaming Performance Index
Mobile gaming is the number 1 category in Google Play and the App Store in both downloads and revenue hands down, AppAnnie consistently reports. eMarketer estimates that the category's revenues—including both downloads and in-app purchases—will grow 16.5% this year to reach $3.04 billion in the US alone. Global mobile games revenue will grow from $29 billion in 2015 to $45 billion by 2018 at 15% annual growth, according to intelligence firm Digi-Capital.
As the leading category with continued growth predicted ahead, AppsFlyer's first Ad Network & Media Partners Performance Index is dedicated to the gaming vertical. The report provides a detailed review of advertising platforms' performance and includes a scorecard on gaming apps' retention—the quality of acquired users over time. In addition, a power ranking factors both retention and scale—the quantity of installs.
It is the industry's most comprehensive study of its kind to date, covering over 50 million paid installs of hundreds of gaming apps running campaigns on hundreds of AppsFlyer's integrated network partners.
Last but not least, it is important to stress that while this global report only ranks the top 25 ad platforms per OS, many of our clients are seeing the best ROI working with other media platforms from among our 1,000+ integrated partners. Ultimately, each app should measure and constantly test the performance of multiple networks and optimize until it finds the right balance in its own marketing mix.
The Report
Top Retention Platforms: Data-Driven & Video Doing the Trick
Fiksu's latest cost-per-loyal-user index, which measures the price of acquiring a user who opens an app at least three times, found that the average cost hit $3.09 in March, a 10% increase month-over-month and a significant 113% rise year-over-year.
Add to that the fact that only 0.15% of mobile gamers contribute 50% of all in-app purchases generated in free-to-play games, according to Swrve, and you'll realize why finding and retaining big spenders is critical for app developers.
Generating organic installs is becoming increasingly challenging with millions of apps to compete with. That's why one of the most important data-driven decisions a mobile game developer can make involves the allocation of ad budget to drive non-organic installs of high-quality users.
The following dynamic graph breaks down the retention of the top 25 advertising platforms on days 1, 7, and 30 on both Android and iOS. The retention is shown in the format of an index figure—a key that reflects its relative strength—and not the actual retention percentages (more details in the methodology section below).
Key Findings:
- Programmatic ad network AppLovin proves that focusing on big data and predictive analytics (the company says it has 4x the number of engineers as compared to sales on staff) pays off as it wins top spot in overall retention (average of days 1/7/30), starting in 2nd place but then dominating on days 7 and 30
- Video networks are showing their quality with a 130% higher overall retention rate compared to the other ad platforms in the index; video also has a 10% and 17% better overall retention rate compared to social networks and in-app networks, respectively
- Comparing affiliate to incentivized networks shows the former outranks the latter by an average of 45%, with a gap that widens over time to reach 70% on day 30
- The overall retention rate of in-app networks is a whopping 3x more than affiliate networks
- Social networks have the upper hand when going up against in-app networks with an 11% higher overall retention figure
- On average, the drop in retention across all ad platforms between days 1 to 7 is 56%, and 80% between days 7 to 30
- Video networks dominate with an 80% higher overall retention rate compared to all other networks in the study. Video retention was:
- 24% higher than social (widening over time to reach a nearly 40% gap on day 30)
- 63% higher than in-app networks
- 67% more than affiliate networks
- When comparing incentivized networks to affiliate networks, the latter's overall retention is nearly 120% higher. The gap is most evident over time as affiliates' day 30 retention is no less than 280% higher than incentivized
- Social networks' overall retention is about 40% higher than the rate of other networks in the report, and 32% higher than in-app networks
- On average, the drop in retention across all ad platforms between days 1 to 7 is 66%, and 85% between days 7 to 30
Power Ranking: Facebook Reigns Supreme
The full potential of a media partner is most evident when factoring not only quality but also quantity. Driving quality users with high LTV potential is super important but the ability to do so at scale is key.
The following media partners rankings per OS are based on both retention and the volume of installs:
Key Findings:
- Facebook's unrivaled scale and high retention rate—albeit not the highest – lands the social network's advertising solution the top power spot across the board
- Video proves to be a solid bet when it comes to user acquisition—showing not only a high retention rate but also the ability to drive scale
- Media partners that run campaigns for Asian developers going global are far more dominant in Android
iOS vs. Android: iOS Dominates Retention in Head to Head Battle
Which advertising platform that run campaigns on both iOS and Android reign supreme when it comes to user retention? The following dynamic graph breaks it down:
Key Findings:
- iOS dominates gaming retention, widening gap with Android over time, as follows:
- iOS lead over Android is broken down per category as follows:
- 26% higher overall retention when comparing video networks
- 28% higher in in-app networks
- 47% higher in social networks
- Android's retention is higher than iOS when comparing affiliate and incentivized networks (87% and 74%, respectively); however, in both cases iOS narrows the gap with Android over time:
- In affiliate networks from 101% in day 1, to 65% in day 7, to 24% in day 30
- In incentivized networks from 85% in day 1 to 68% in day 7, to a complete turnaround taking over the lead with a 58% higher retention rate than Android on day 30
Final Words
- There's a great deal of variance among campaigns and apps/developers. Just as companies are different, games are different as well and so are their marketing teams. Top notch
marketers who put in the effort that's required manage to beat their numbers through constant measurement, targeting, retargeting and applying deeplinking solutions such as OneLink.
- Geography matters – the report is on a global scope but some ad platforms specialize in specific GEOs.
- Gaming performance differs from other segments such as e-commerce, travel and utilities.
- We based our study on last touch attribution but it's important to remember that users are driven to action by multiple touches.
The study covers over 50 million paid installs across hundreds of gaming apps running campaigns with hundreds of AppsFlyer's integrated media partners throughout February and March 2015 on both iOS and Android. It only included apps that generated at least 5,000 installs per OS per media partner throughout the period.
Retention Rate & Index
The retention rate was calculated as the unique number of users who were active on days 1, 7 and 30 out of the total number of unique users who first launched the app in the selected timeframe. The overall retention rate, when used, is an equally weighted average of all three days. The retention index figure—normalized to display on a scale of 1 to 10—is an exact reflection of the actual retention rate, but it is only a relative number that is used solely for the purpose of ranking the best performing advertising platforms in retention and the relative difference between each partner.
Power Ranking
The power ranking is comprised of two factors that were given equal weight in the formula: both retention (quality) and the total number of installs it generated (quantity).

Brazil managed a 1-0 friendly victory over Germany to earn a measure of closure after their humiliating defeat at the 2014 World Cup.
The two world footballing powers were meeting for the first time since Germany embarrassed Brazil 7-1 at home nearly four years ago.
But Brazil's defense was stauncher in Munich on Tuesday and Gabriel Jesus' lone goal proved to be the difference.
Jesus pushed forward on the counter-attack in the 36th minute, only to blast his shot well over the bar from 15 yards.
However, less than a minute later, Willian sent a curling cross into Jesus, whose powerful header was straight at Germany goalkeeper Kevin Trapp but looped up and over the line.
Germany nearly stole a draw in the 92nd minute when Toni Kroos found space to shoot, but goalkeeper Alisson did well to save.
The defeat ended Germany's 22-game unbeaten streak, which came one game short from matching their record of 23 from 1978-81. Brazil also halted another Germany 22-game unbeaten run in 1998.

As I get older I constantly feel the need to add dressier clothes to my wardrobe. But I don't think I'll ever get over the ease of a t-shirt, jeans, and a leather jacket. It's so easy to wear during my workday with flats, sandals, sneakers, or boots, and then dress up for the evening with heels, killer earrings, and a little more makeup. If I had a "uniform" that would be it.

Randomized Block Analysis
I've decided to present the statistical model for the Randomized Block Design in regression analysis notation. Here is the model for a case where there are four blocks or homogeneous subgroups.
Notice that we use a number of dummy variables in specifying this model. We use the dummy variable Z1 to represent the treatment group. We use the dummy variables Z2, Z3 and Z4 to indicate blocks 2, 3 and 4 respectively. Analogously, the beta values (b's) reflect the treatment and blocks 2, 3 and 4. What happened to Block 1 in this model? To see what the equation for the Block 1 comparison group is, fill in your dummy variables and multiply through. In this case, all four Zs are equal to 0 and you should see that the intercept (b0) is the estimate for the Block 1 control group. For the Block 1 treatment group, Z1 = 1 and the estimate is equal to b0 + b1. By substituting the appropriate dummy variable "switches" you should be able to figure out the equation for any block or treatment group.
The data matrix that is entered into this analysis would consist of five columns and as many rows as you have participants: the posttest data, and one column of 0's or 1's for each of the four dummy variables.

International Social Innovation Research Conference 2018
Heidelberg University
3 – 5 September 2018
Scientists from all over the world will be discussing new developments in social movements, non-profit companies, and the social economy at the International Social Innovation Research Conference.
This year, the tenth annual conference will be held in Germany for the first time, in Heidelberg, and tackles the theme of "Bridging Social and Business Innovation". New products, services, and models will be presented that improve social relations and promote human potential. Theoretical approaches and the connotation of the word "innovation" often only refer to technical innovation; analytical, conceptual, and theoretical contributions to social innovation have rarely been included to date. Social innovations are usually seen only as an alternative to economic, profit-oriented innovations, all of which are intended to solve social challenges. The aim of the conference is to combine both approaches and to significantly improve research into social innovation.
Participants meet several times a day in plenary sessions to discuss methodological and empirical contributions from various disciplines and topics of general interest will also be presented. Based on the growing number of visitors to previous events, the organisers expect around two hundred participants from various countries, from experts in the field to political decision-makers. A three-day conference programme awaits visitors, inviting them to address issues such as the future of social innovation in the areas of sustainability, investment, health, and education as well as their financing. Registration for participation is now open on the event's official website.

Tyrophilitic Architecture: Gouda, or no Gouda?
290 13th Street
Architect Robert Palermo of the firm Corporate Design of America, P.C. (Processed Cheese) unwraps his new building in the South Slope. Lactose intolerant neighbors say the design grates on their aesthetic sensibilities. Two complaints to the Buildings Department have lead nowhere as DOB inspectors declared stinky condo plans safe for human consumption.
