Let me tell you about the time I was officially diagnosed as not crazy by Navy medicine.
In the Marine Corps, medical support is provided by Navy personnel. Because I was having some problems coping with life in my unit, it was recommended I make an appointment with a Navy psychiatrist. Since I wasn't a big threat to myself or others, I had to wait about 6 weeks for the appointment.
When the time for my appointment finally arrived and I described my situation to the psychiatrist, he said, "I don't think there's anything wrong with you. It sounds like you just have a toxic unit." Which I knew already.
"I don't suppose there's a pill for that, is there?" I asked.
"I'm afraid not," he replied.
All things considered, I was one of the lucky ones. Yes, the situation at my unit was toxic, but I had a support system that didn't rely on my unit. Not everybody in my unit was so fortunate.
In the weeks after my non-diagnosis, we had a couple of psychiatric hospitalizations in our unit in a fairly short time period. I couldn't help but think that while their reactions were obviously extreme, they were understandable reactions to the circumstances. Both of those Marines were constantly criticized to a point that I would definitely consider bullying.
Fun fact: I happened to be occupying the duty desk when one of the hospitalizations happened and got to field a panicked phone call from one of the Marine's parents. Unfortunately, the best I could do was tell them their child was safe and being taken care of and that I could have someone more senior call them when they got in (this was first thing in the morning).
In the other case, I'm told that the command element told the Marine's spouse that they believed the Marine in question was just doing it for attention. All I'll say about that is the scars I saw suggest otherwise.
Insanity is the only sane reaction to an insane society. – Thomas Szasz
A mental breakdown is a completely normal reaction to persistent bullying and isolation from their support system. I wouldn't trust a person who constantly kept a smile on their face while everything fell apart around them.
Part of this pressure comes from society. Particularly in the US, it feels like there's pressure to at least appear happy all the time. Something that I've heard people from outside the US comment on is that Americans constantly ask each other how they're doing without actually being interested in an honest answer.
Barbara Ehrenreich examines American culture's constant emphasis on positive thinking in her book Bright-Sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America. Of course, some level of positive thinking is good and can improve your life. But focusing on it to the exclusion of all other possibilities can have some unintended consequences, like victim blaming and magical thinking. Just like pain receptors in our body let us know when we need to stop doing something, adverse mental or emotional reactions can also guide us out of situations that aren't good for us. Ignore them at your peril.
Have you ever been in a situation where you were happy to realize you weren't crazy? What was that like for you?

9 November 2018
UNITED KINGDOM: Second Phase of pilot 'EU Settled Status Scheme' launched
The UK's Home Office has published a statement detailing immigration changes affecting EU citizens living in the UK and their employers.
The EU Settlement Scheme
This scheme is currently in testing stage, which hopes to successfully enable EU citizens resident in the UK (and their family members) to obtain the UK immigration status required to live and work in the UK.
The first phase of testing has been completed, allowing the second phase of testing to commence this month.
Second phase of pilot scheme
This phase will run from 1 November to 21 December 2018 to test the full application process. The scheme will eventually be implemented on a phase-by-phase basis, becoming fully operational by 30 March 2019 (the day after Brexit), intended to offer status in U.K. law for the estimated 3 million European citizens currently living in the UK under the European free movement law.
EU citizens wanting permanent residence
Those with five years' residence in the UK would be granted settled status (i.e., permanent residence). Those without 5 years' residence will be granted pre-settled status (given limited leave) to allow them to get to the five-year mark.
How does this affect the client?
While there is no immediate business impact of the EU settlement scheme testing phase, employers should carefully consider how they will support employees when they register under the EU Settlement Scheme once it goes live in 2019.

Dorothy Yallop pressed her shawl and set the iron down flat on the hearth. Behind her through the window the River Waveney spilled out into the meadows and caught the last of the light from the bleached winter sky. A rising breeze moved through the naked willow branches; snow was on the way from the west. In the darkness the current of war came upriver on the evening tide, pushed unnoticed into every rivulet and stream, and seeped into the frosted ground. – From Tides of War, page 12 –
The year is 1812, the place England. The unconventional and personable Harriet Raven is about to say good-bye to her new husband, James, as he leaves for the Peninsular War as part of the Duke of Wellington's troops in Spain. Thus begins a new chapter in Harriet's life – that of the wife left behind while her husband fights battles on foreign soil.
Stella Tillyard's debut novel is sprawling and filled with characters both historical and fictional. Harriet takes center stage in London and is joined by the Duke of Wellington's savvy and independent wife, Kitty, along with the ever loyal Dorothy Yallop. While Dorothy waits patiently for the return of her husband, Kitty begins to invest her money through a questionable source, and Harriet becomes enamored with Frederick Winsor who is bringing light to London through his newly conceived Gas Light and Coke Company.
Meanwhile, a bloody war is unfolding in Spain where James Raven, Dr. David McBride, Major George Yallop, Robert Heaton, and the unfaithful Arthur Wellesley (Lord Wellington) wrestle with their own demons and temptations.
The novel moves back and forth from Spain to London and spans the years 1812-1814. Narrated in multiple points of view, it portrays the struggles and strengths of the women who carried on their daily lives in London, as well as the brutal horror of war in Spain – including obscene war crimes, horrible injuries and sexual transgressions. Tillyard's strength is her ability to bring to life the effects of war, especially for those men who peopled the battlefields.
[…] here in Spain, and in the army, all our pasts drop away from us. Stand in line though we do, the ranks invisibly rearrange themselves so that the ribbons of standing and wealth that tied us together at home fall away. – from Tides of War, page 127 –
Tillyard also illuminates the challenges women faced in the early part of the nineteenth century – their dependence on men, their lack of freedoms, their rather uneventful lives – and demonstrates the unusual freedoms which war brought to them. Not only were most women not allowed to have their own money, but they were also held to a high standard of loyalty…which their husbands were not.
It was not what he had done in Spain. That was to be expected. It was what Harriet had done, her betrayal of her marriage vow. – from Tides of War, page 314 –
Tillyard writes with authority, deftly handling the changes in point of view, and moving the narrative forward. Tides of War has a huge cast of characters and assumes some knowledge of the historical time period. Because of this, I found myself having to reference the character list at the back of the book, and even research some of the history of the time. Despite a slow start, the novel pulled me in and had captivated me by the midpoint.
Readers of historical fiction and those who appreciate a narrative which includes dozens of characters and introduces multiple viewpoints, will enjoy Tides of War.

I love your lactivist pictures. I was driving down the highway last week and the state of Virginia has placed a huge billboard promoting "breast is beast". I immediately thought of you. I really wanted to pull over and take a picture but I figured the rush hour traffic behind me wouldn't approve. LOL

I was in college when I read a book that captivated me. It was an apologetics book where a theology professor was writing letters back-and-forth with his atheist father, and he carefully and winsomely explained his Christian views. The problem was, some of those views were radical reinterpretations of what the Bible teaches. Because of this book there were a number of significant doctrines that I misunderstood for years. Since then, I have grown more discerning and careful about evaluating what I read and listen.
We are all called to be careful readers and listeners, to be on guard against false teachers. Sometimes it might come off as spiritual superiority ("I know better than they do, I'm not falling for it!") or spiritual arrogance ("I can't believe you'd read that book"). We need to remain humble even as we grow in our spiritual discernment, but one of my great concerns for Christians today is a lack of spiritual discernment.
There are authors and musicians (yes, our Christian music can easily spread false teaching) who are on the Christian best seller's list, but they're false teachers who should be avoided. Sure, maybe their books are really fun to read, their personalities are engaging, and some of their stuff is helpful. But the Bible calls Christians to be spiritually discerning, because there are false teachers who can lead well-intentioned believers astray.
Do false teachers concern you? Do you ask theological questions about the books you read, music you listen to, shows you watch, or teachers you learn from? Sadly, we cannot simply trust anyone who talks about Jesus and quotes the Bible.

In a recent demonstration given by Microsoft in China at the Microsoft Research Asia's 21st century Computing event, the speaker explained how speech recognition & translation works and gave a brief explanation how machine understands English words. For speech recognition and translation its very important to understand how the machine ends up transcribing the language as its spoken. Usually speech recognition and translation happens in a delay i.e. first it understands then it transcribes and translates to the requested language.
In this demo they showed us how Microsoft has made its possible to make this process much faster and efficient. Now you would imagine what's amazing in this? Everybody now a days ( smartphone era) is doing somewhat the similar thing. But heres where Microsoft got an edge. They have managed to do all this translation not only fast and refined but in the same voice. Yes! the machine understands and translates the voice in the speaker's voice.
The future seems bright and really amazing.

With the resurgence of Keynesian economic policy as a response to the current crisis, echoes of past debates are being heard - in particular, the debate from the 1930's between John Maynard Keynes and Friederich Hayek. Keynes talked about the "capital stock" of the economy. He argued that by stimulating spending on outputs (consumption goods and services) one can increase productive investment (adding to the capital stock) to meet that spending, thus adding to the capital stock and increasing employment. Hayek accused Keynes of insufficient attention to the nature of capital in production. (By "capital" is meant here the physical production structure of the economy, including things like machinery, buildings, raw materials, and, we should also include, human capital). Hayek pointed out that capital investment does not simply add to production in a general way, but, rather, is embodied in concrete capital items. The productive capital of the economy is not simply an amorphous "stock" of generalized production power; rather it is a very intricate production structure of interrelated complementary specific production items. Stimulating spending and investment amounts to stimulating specific sections and components of this intricate structure. The "shape" of production gets changed by stimulatory activist spending. And, given that productive resources are not free, this change comes at the expense of productive effort elsewhere. The pattern of production gets out of sync with the pattern of consumption and eventually this must lead to a collapse. Productive sectors, like dot.com start-ups or residential housing, become "overbought" (while other sectors develop less) and eventually a "correction" must occur. Add this "distortionary" effect to the fact that the original stimulus must somehow eventually be paid for and we have a predictable bust.
These Hayekian criticisms are once again relevant. It is necessary therefore to return to the nature of capital in order to, once again, clarify the issues. Hayek was working from foundations that were developed by his intellectual forebears in the Austrian School of Economics. Specifically, it is the Austrian Theory of Capital that is relevant and we should begin with that.
The best known Austrian capital theorist was Eugene von Böhm-Bawerk, though his teacher Carl Menger is the one who got the ball rolling, providing the central idea upon which Böhm-Bawerk elaborated. Böhm-Bawerk produced three volumes dedicated to the study of capital and interest, making the Austrian Theory of Capital its most well-known theoretical contribution. He provided a very detailed account of the fundamentals of capitalistic production. Later contributors include Hayek, Ludwig Lachmann and Israel Kirzner. They added to and enriched Böhm-Bawerk's account in crucial ways. The legacy we now have is a rich tapestry that accords amazingly well with the nature of production in the digital-information-age. Some current contributors along these lines include Peter Klein, Nicolai Foss, Howard Baetjer, Peter Lewin and others.
The Austrians emphasize the fact that production takes time, and the more indirect it is, the more "time" it takes. Production today is much more "roundabout" (Böhm-Bawerk's term) than older more rudimentary production processes. Rather than picking the fruit in our back yard and eating it, most of us today get our fruit from fruit farms using complex picking, sorting, packing machinery to process carefully engineered fruit items. Consider the amount of "time" (for example in "people-hours") involved in setting up and assembling all the pieces of this complex production process from scratch – from before the manufacture of the machines, etc. – and this gives us some idea of what is meant by production methods that are "roundabout."
[The scare quotes above are used because, in fact, there is no perfectly rigorous way define the length of a production process in purely physical terms. But, intuitively, what is being asserted is that doing things in a more complicated, specialized way is more difficult – loosely speaking it takes more "time" because it is more "roundabout," more indirect.]
Through countless self-interested individual production decisions, we have adopted more roundabout methods of production, because they are more productive – they add more value - than less roundabout methods. Were this not the case, they would not be deemed worth the sacrifice and effort of the "time" involved– and would be abandoned in favor of more direct production methods. What is at work here are the benefits of specialization – the division of labor to which Adam Smith referred. Modern economies are complex, specialized economies in which the many specialized steps necessary to produce any product are connected in a sequentially specific network – some things have to be done before others. There is a time-structure to the capital-structure.
This intricate time-structure is partially organized, partially spontaneous (organic). Every production process is the result of some multi-period production plan. Entrepreneurs envision the possibility of providing (new, improved, cheaper) products to consumers whose expenditure on them will be more than sufficient to cover the cost of producing them. In pursuit of this vision the entrepreneur plans to assemble the necessary capital items in a synergistic combination. These capital-combinations are structurally composed modules that are the ingredients of the industry- or economy-wide capital-structure. The latter is the result then of the dynamic interaction of multiple entrepreneurial plans in the marketplace – it is what constitutes the market process. Some plans will prove more successful than others, some will have to be modified to some degree, some will fail. What emerges is a structure that is not planned by anyone in its totality, but is the result of many individual actions in the pursuit of profit – it is an unplanned structure that has a logic, a coherence, to it. It was not designed, and it could not have been designed, by any human mind or committee of minds. Thinking that it is possible to design such a structure or even to micro-manage it with macro-economic policy is a fatal conceit.
The division of labor reflected by the capital-structure is based on a division of knowledge. Within and across firms specialized tasks are accomplished by those who know best how to accomplish them. Such localized, often unconscious, knowledge could not be communicated to or collected by centralized decision-makers. The market process is responsible not only for discovering who should do what and how, but also how to organize it so that those best able to make decisions are motivated to do so. In other words, incentives and knowledge considerations tend to get balanced spontaneously in a way that could not be planned on a grand scale. The boundaries of firms expand and contract and new forms of organization evolve. This too is part of the capital-structure broadly understood.
In addition, the heterogeneous capital goods that make-up the cellular capital-combinations also reflect the division of knowledge. Capital goods (like specialized machines) are employed because they "know" how to do certain important things; they embody the knowledge of their designers about how to perform the tasks for which they were designed. The entire production-structure is thus based on an incredibly intricate extended division of knowledge, such knowledge being spread across its multiple physical and human capital components. Modern production management is more than ever knowledge management, whether involving human beings or machines – the key difference being that the latter can be owned and require no incentives to motivate their production, while the former depend on "relationships" but possess initiative and judgment, in a way that machines do not.
The foregoing provides the barest account of the rich legacy of Austrian capital theory, but should be sufficient to communicate the essential differences in the way Austrians view the economy, compared to those using perspectives from other schools of thought. For Austrians the whole macro-economic approach is problematic, involving, as it does, the use of gross aggregrates as targets for policy manipulation – aggregates like the economy's "capital stock." For Austrians there is no "capital stock." Any attempt to aggregate the multitude of diverse capital items involved in production into a single aggregate number is bound to result in a meaningless outcome – a number devoid of significance. Similarly the total of investment spending does not reflect in any accurate way the addition to value that can be produced by this "capital stock." The value of capital goods and of capital combinations or of the businesses in which they are employed, are determined only as the market process unfolds over time. They are based on the expectations of the entrepreneurs who hire them, and these expectations are diverse and often inconsistent. Not all of them will prove correct – indeed most will be, at least to some degree, proven false. Basing macro-economic policy on an aggregate of values for assembled capital items as recorded or estimated at one point of time, would seem to be a fool's errand. What do the policy-makers know that the entrepreneurs involved in the micro aspects of production do not?
The folly is compounded by connecting capital and investment aggregates to total employment, under the assumption that stimulating the former will stimulate the latter. Such an assumption ignores the heterogeneity and structural nature of both capital and labor (human-capital). Simply boosting expenditure on any kind of production will not guarantee adding to the employment of people without jobs. How else to explain the fact that our current economy is characterized by both sizeable unemployment numbers and job-vacancies? Their coexistence is a result of a structural mismatch – the structure, the pattern of skills, of the unemployed does not match those required to be able to work with the specific capital items that are currently unemployed.
In fact, the current enduring recession is basically structural in nature. It is the bust of a credit-induced boom-bust cycle, augmented by far-reaching production distorting regulation. The Austrian Theory of the Business Cycle was developed first by Ludwig von Mises, combining insights from the Austrian Theory of Capital with the nature of modern central-bank led monetary policy. The theory was later used, with some differences, by Hayek in his debates with Keynes. And over the years its popularity and acceptance has waxed and waned. But it appears to be highly relevant to our current situation.
The dot-com boom no doubt reflected the advent of a pervasive new technological environment – the arrival and expansion of the digital age. It was a time of great promise and uncertainty and of enhanced risk-taking. Astronomical book values reflected expectations that in total could not be realized. A shake-up was inevitable – and known to be so. It was part of the market process. As the boom deepened interest rates started to rise, reflecting the increased demand for a limited supply of loanable funds. This, as Hayek would have put it, is the natural brake of the economy, the signal and the incentive to slow down. But the Federal Reserve, not wishing to spoil the party, expanded reserves in order to keep interest rates low, thus allowing the boom to progress beyond its "natural" life. When the bust came it was bigger than it would have been had the cycle been allowed to run its natural course.
Notice how this story accords with our understanding of the capital-structure. The expanding boom reflected entrepreneurs' expectations of profitably making new capital combinations, only some of which would, in the event, prove to be profitable. But there was no way, ahead of time, to know which they were. That is why we need markets. Rising interest rates, and the passage of time, would tend to reveal the less viable ventures and weed them out. Keeping interest rates artificially low prevented this from happening, moreso for those projects that were more interest-sensitive, namely, those that were longer-lived, that had a longer time-horizon – or, loosely speaking, in terms of our earlier discussion, contained more "time."
But the dot-com collapse did not really mark the end of the cycle. Much of the extra liquidity was then directed into real estate, specifically into residential housing and into financial assets based on it. This investment channel was wide open as a result of a decades long, recently intensifying, Congressional and regulatory policy to expand home-ownership in America. This is a familiar story that need not be repeated here. The result was an unprecedented expansion of home-building and home purchases riding up the tsunami wave of home prices. Once again the production structure was pushed out of sync with any kind of sustainable pattern of consumption.
The solution, from this perspective, is to remove the distortions – to allow the market process to "re-structure" production. This would mean a sustained period of consolidation in the housing market, not a policy that attempts to revive it (to revive the bubble?) of the kind we are currently witnessing. But then, today's policy-makers do not have the benefit of knowing Austrian Capital Theory to guide them.

SurveyMonkey Measures America's Perception of 2016 Fortune 100 Companies
PALO ALTO, Calif. June 7, 2016 – This week, SurveyMonkey, the world's leading online survey platform, in collaboration with Fortune, released rankings of Fortune 100 companies on both positive and negative dimensions. The dimensions included measures such as trustworthiness, innovation, cares about you, ruthlessness and worst for the country.
Tech companies come out on top
The survey of over 10,000 U.S. adults found tech companies scoring highest with Amazon, Apple, Alphabet, and Microsoft all in the top 10 for most innovative, influential, positive global impact, and place Americans would most like to work.
Tech companies also dominate the list of where people would invest their life savings: Amazon, Alphabet (Google), Apple are the top 3. And, these companies are expected to be around for a long time. Of the companies people think will be around 100 years from today, most have already been around for nearly a century (Coca Cola, General Electric, Walt Disney, General Motors). The exceptions are tech companies, with Microsoft, Amazon, Apple and Alphabet making the top 20 list of companies that people expect to still be in business in 2116.
The good and bad for Walmart
Walmart has the dubious honor of coming in first place as the company respondents dislike the most. Across all negative dimensions (negative global impact, worst for the country, desire to shut down, and ruthless), people said the company was the most ruthless and worst overall for the country.
Possibly still raw from the financial crisis, people rank banks as more ruthless than oil companies, with JPMorgan and Bank of America being named above Exxon Mobil and Chevron. Comcast rounds out the top five most ruthless and worst for the country lists.
However, Americans will set aside their dislike for a company if they think it will make them money. Although Walmart and Exxon Mobil top the list for most negative global impact, they are both top 10 companies in terms of where people would invest their life savings.
Women want to work for Disney, men want to work for Google
The data also revealed interesting differences among age and gender lines. While men listed four tech companies out of five as their top places to work (Amazon, Alphabet, Apple, Microsoft), women only listed two tech companies (Amazon and Apple) in their top five.
Age also plays a large role in how Americans perceive companies. For example, the younger you are, the more likely you are to think that Google's parent company Alphabet is more influential than Microsoft.
Similarly, age differences emerge when asked what company is worst for the country. Soft drink and snacks companies appear in the top 10 rankings for 18-29 year olds, but rank much lower for people over the age of 60.
Other key findings from the 2016 SurveyMonkey/Fortune 100 Rankings and data on how each Fortune 100 company scored can be found here:
On Monday, June 6, Fortune released the Fortune 500, its annual list of the largest corporations in the United States ranked by revenue for the 2015 fiscal year. Please visit Fortune.com for additional coverage or see the June 15, 2016 issue of Fortune, on sale now.
Methods statement
The 2016 SurveyMonkey/Fortune 100 rankings are based on survey responses from a sample of 10,143 adults in the United States. The survey was administered on the SurveyMonkey platform with respondents from Audience, SurveyMonkey's online panel. Companies in the 2016 listing of the Fortune 100 were compared by respondents on a set of 13 metrics in a two phase survey design conducted May 6th – May 10th and May 11th – May 18th. Data were weighted to match distributions from the U.S. Census Bureau.

Filibuster Dual Cask Kentucky Bourbon
Out of stock
Flat $9.99 or $14.99. Free for DSS members over $95.
From the producer's website: Dual Cask aging is what makes our small batch whiskies stand apart from the crowd. Whiskey derives its deep golden color, signature aroma and smooth flavors of vanilla, caramel and spice from aging in fully charred American White oak barrels, or "casks". This aging process has long been the heart and soul of good whiskey.
After several years, once our whiskies have developed a robust richness and a mellow golden hue, we taste and assemble the final blend… but instead of going right to bottling, we allow the batch to "rest" a while - a few months or longer, in 225 liter casks made of French oak previously used in the aging of wine. The tighter grain and subtle flavor profile of these older French oak barrels adds a degree of elegance and finesse to the finished whiskey - nothing overpowering, but a layer of stylish complexity that really pulls all the components together.
Wine Enthusiast 92 points - Aged in American oak casks, then finished in "white-wine seasoned French oak barrels," this honey-hued whiskey has rich, powerful aromas of apricots and butterscotch. On the palate, surprising floral accents transition into honey and rounded stone-fruit notes, with a bit of a tannic pucker on the finish. .Kara Newman, July/2013

Staff Finds: Coronary Angiography Catheter Molds Designed by Sven Paulin
In 1964, Sven Paulin published his dissertation from his doctoral research at the University of Göteborg, Sweden, "Coronary Angiography: A Technical, Anatomic and Clinical Study." It was quickly recognized as a landmark contribution to both fields of radiology and cardiology. He later went on to become Radiologist-in-Chief at Beth Israel Hospital (later Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center) and the first Miriam H. Stoneman Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School, both in Boston, Massachusetts. He is recognized as a pioneer in the field of cardiothoracic imaging, particularly in coronary angiography.
In his dissertation, he presented an improved and less invasive process of coronary angiography: inserting a specially-designed double-loop catheter through the femoral artery in order to introduce a radiopaque contrast medium that would be detected through radiological imaging of the coronary artery. This technique was soon widely adopted. Paulin continued to work throughout his career to develop and refine the method, considering also the complications of coronary angiography, the side effects and toxicity of various contrast agents, and the quantification of coronary angiogram results.
Paulin designed molds for two catheter sizes (18mm and 24mm, pictured above) for the preparation of the new double-loop catheter. Molding the catheter was a multi-step process, as illustrated in his published dissertation. The catheter was first heated over an open flame, then threaded snugly through the grooves on the mold. After securing in place with the metal cylinder case, the tip of the mold was immersed first in boiling water, then cooled in cold water. Finally, five holes were pierced into the side of the catheter, before rotating the catheter off of the mold.
While processing the Sven Paulin papers, Center staff found the two catheter molds designed by Paulin during his doctoral research. The portable coil water heater that he used to boil water during the molding process is also part of the collection. These items will be transferred to the Warren Anatomical Museum collection. Paulin's papers also include his: teaching and lecture records (including lecture slides and cine angiogram film recordings); writings and publications; professional administrative records generated through his service at both Beth Israel Hospital and Harvard Medical School; records of his participation in professional radiology and cardiology organizations; and personal and professional correspondence, among other papers. For more information on the collection, please contact Jessica Sedgwick, Collections Services Archivist.

Vegan Kale and Alfredo Pizza
That delicious, decadent, and cheese covered pizza is vegan, you guys. I was pretty proud of myself, after just kind of winging it for a pizza party we threw for the Super Bowl. It was SO good.
We made 5 pizzas in total, for 7 people, and there were two star vegan ones. I made my regular Curry Sweet Potato and Eggplant Pizza, which I've made several times. For the other one, I wanted to try something different.
So, I started thinking about what kind of pizza I used to like before going vegan, and an alfredo pizza came to mind. I had some leftover frozen kale from another dish, so I knew I was halfway there. I grabbed some Kroger vegan chicken shreds in the frozen section (which I am OBSESSED with), made up some cashew cream, mixed in the kale, threw on some Daiya and jalapenos, and dinner was served.
Of course, we used store bought pizza crusts, because we're lazy and afraid of yeast. One day I will master how to truly make a good pizza crust. For now, these work well.
What's your favorite type of vegan pizza? Do you ever use vegan chicken shreds?
21 comments:
That pizza looks amazing! I absolutely love kale on pizza. I see a lot of very non vegan versions of that pizza on menus. Great idea with the Alfredo!ReplyDelete
I love the Trader Joe's chicken-less strips. They have saved the day many a time for me. And I find vegan chicken type things are an easier sell to non vegans if you're ever in mixed company.
Love those Kroger chick'n shreds! And alfredo pizza was always my fave too. I should try this!ReplyDelete
If you ever do decide to tackle homemade crust, the recipe in Vegan with a Vengeance is my fave. It's really simple, but it does require a few hours for rising. The good thing is, it makes two crusts, so you can freeze one for later!

When I saw this foundation was coming out, I was absolutely over the moon. I LOVE the L'Oreal True Match Foundation and the L'Oreal True Match Lumi Foundation, so I had really high hopes for this foundation, and let me tell you, it truly lived up to my high expectations. The L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation has quickly become my go-to product, and I've been using it practically on a daily basis now.
My biggest concern with this foundation was as follows: would it be the same as the L'Oreal True Match Lumi? Is it even worth buying? Let me tell you, it's worth it. I honestly don't think I'm going to go back to the L'Oreal True Match Lumi after trying this one, because I just like it so much more. First off, this foundation is a lot less tacky than the L'Oreal True Match Lumi. One thing I noticed that sort of bothered me with the L'Oreal True Match Lumi was that I could always feel it on my skin. I try not to touch my face, but that being said, sometimes it happens. There were times when I literally felt like my face was sticky and wet when I would touch it. Now, I still love the True Match Lumi. I know the previous comments sounds a bit contrary, but it did wonders for my skin this past winter when my face was super dry and flakey.
Now that I've tried to give you a comparison of the two, let's get into the review.
I got the foundation in 201 Classic Ivory (the lightest shade they carry), and it's the perfect match for my skin. They have a great variety of shades, in my opinion.
- Radiant finish
- Up to 24 hour wear
- Medium coverage
- Air-light texture

- Enabling and disabling signals
- Signal document structure
- The default signals index pipeline
- Removing signals
- Video tutorial
A signal is a recorded event related to one or more documents in a collection. Signals can record any kind of event that is interesting to your organization. Queries and clicks are the most common types of signals, as they are useful for tracking what users search for and what actions they take.
Signals are indexed in a secondary collection which is linked to the primary collection by the naming convention
<primarycollectionname>_signals. So, if your main collection is named
products, the associated signals collection is named
products_signals. The signals collection is created automatically when signals are enabled for the primary collection.
Signals are indexed just like ordinary documents. The signals collection can be searched like any other collection, for example to retrieve a user's search history or last viewed items.
Signals are most useful when they are aggregated into a set of summaries that can be used to enrich the search experience through recommendations and boosting. Like the signals collection, a
<primarycollectionname>_signals_aggr collection is created automatically when signals are enabled for a primary collection.
Enabling and disabling signals
Using the Fusion UI, when you create a collection, signals are enabled and a signals collection created by default.
Using the API, the
/collections/{collection}/features/{feature} endpoint enables or disables signals for any collection:
curl -u user:pass http://localhost:8764/api/collections/<collection-name>/features/signals
curl -u user:pass -X PUT -H "Content-type: application/json" -d '{"enabled" : true}' http://localhost:8764/api/collections/<collection-name>/features/signals
curl -u user:pass -X PUT -H "Content-type: application/json" -d '{"enabled" : false}' http://localhost:8764/api/collections/<collection-name>/features/signals
Signal document structure
A raw signal is stored as a Solr document with the following fields, which are derived from the raw signal as follows:
The signal ID. If no ID is supplied, one will be automatically generated.
The signal type that is being sent. This value is used during aggregation to filter events of the same type. Types can be mixed in aggregation jobs, if needed.
The type can consist of any string you choose. For consistency, always send events of the same type with the same type value.
During indexing, type values will be moved to a field named
The params allow flexible definition of the fields you care about and will use later for signal aggregation:
The timestamp of the signal event.
Here is the JSON representation of one click signal, taken from an example dataset of synthetic clickstream data:
{ "params": {
"docId": "2125233",
"filterQueries": ["cat00000","abcat0100000", "abcat0101000", "abcat0101001"],
"query": "Televisiones Panasonic 50 pulgadas" },
"timestamp": "2011-09-01T23:44:52.533000Z"
The default signals index pipeline
When indexing signals, a default index pipeline named
_signals_ingest will be used unless you specify a different index pipeline.
_signals_ingest pipeline has three stages:
If you prefer different options in the signals index pipeline, you can pass a query parameter when indexing signals that contains the name of your custom index pipeline.
If you create a custom pipeline, it must include a Field Mapping stage and a Solr Indexer stage (see Index Pipeline Stages for more details), which sends the documents to Solr. Additionally, the Solr Indexer stage must have the
enforce_schema property set to "true".
Removing signals
The aggregator includes an option to delete signals after they have been processed. If, however, you have chosen not to remove signals during aggregation, you can also run a "delete" query in Solr to delete documents from the signals collection.
Video tutorial
This video tutorial explains how to boost searches using click signals and aggregations:

If you have emailed and I haven't replied - I will do! I read the messages and can't alway reply at the time and I'm so bad for forgetting that I haven't replied yet.
Also, if you leave a comment and it doesn't show up, please don't be offended - the spam filter has probably pinched it and I mostly forget to check the spam box!
Anyone who has found their way here from Company magazine you can have a look at the original piece here and anyone else wondering what the hell I'm rambling on about you can find out why I'm posting here!
Right, self-indulgent, guilt-induced post over! I'm off to do another one of those catch up posts I said I wouldn't do any more :D
I'll leave you with some over-exposed flowers from my boyfriend and the daffodils from my mums garden
Aren't they pretty?

"I want to be clear," Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said at the Liberal party's recent caucus gathering in Kelowna. "People who make $50,000 a year should not pay higher taxes than people who make $250,000 a year."
Trudeau was defending the government's proposed small business tax changes, which would eliminate such practices as business owners paying themselves dividends, sprinkling income among family members or holding certain investments — such as real estate — through a corporation.
These proposed changes have touched off a firestorm of protest from small business owners — and Liberal MPs are feeling the heat. So the PM and Finance Minister Bill Morneau are attempting to douse the flames by talking up "tax fairness" — something they figure most Canadians would agree upon. After all, taxation is supposed to be progressive — the more you make, the more you pay, right?
But that's where they're actually dead wrong.
WATCH: Finance Minister Bill Morneau on decision to make changes to the tax system
What matters isn't how much you make. What matters is how much you take home — after expenses are factored in. For some professionals, these expenses are considerable. Doctors pay overhead, staff salaries (like Mr. Trudeau, they need someone to answer the phone) and other operating expenses. Female doctors even finance their own maternity leaves — a rich irony, given how this PM prides himself on creating policy through a lens of gender equity.
"You move the goal posts in the middle of the game," Dr. Anita Sana recently told Trudeau, "and expect me somehow to be able to plan for my retirement, plan for maternity leave — which I will not be able to afford at this time — and I'm having to choose between having a family and being able to actually practise as a physician."
Take-home pay also has to include the benefits received by workers — which, particularly if they are unionized, can be considerable, even for people in the middle of the income scale. Independent professionals don't get any of these — a fact which makes Trudeau's numbers game even more disingenuous.
WATCH: Justin Trudeau defends proposed tax reform changes
For argument's sake, let's compare two taxpayers. The first is an unionized Ontario teacher making $90,000 a year. She benefits from two months' annual paid vacation, 11 fully paid sick days and one of the most generous pension funds in the country. She gets other perks as well: personal development training, free parking and the biggest perk of all — job security. She can retire with a full pension when her age and qualifying years add up to 85, which means that a teacher who has taught for 32 years since age 21 can hang up her Smartboard at 53.
The second taxpayer is a freelance communications professional making $90,000 a year. She benefits from … nothing. She has no paid sick days, no paid vacation, no pension plan. She has to pay for every paper clip, every computer upgrade, every tank of gas and every parking spot she needs to do her job. This takes a considerable chunk out of her take-home pay. She has no job security; she needs to hustle for work, fighting for clients and gigs in the real and virtual world, maintaining a web presence, networking constantly. She is staring 50 in the eye and doesn't see herself retiring anytime soon.
But she's not griping. Instead, she incorporates, which allows her to pay less tax. She deducts the items she needs to conduct her business. She pays herself dividends, which are taxed at a lower rate. She leaves some money in the corporation, which also is taxed at a lower rate. Those funds are directed to savings she puts away so that, like the teacher, she has security for a rainy day, or for when she retires. And whenever that day comes, and the money is taken out, it will be taxed, as income — with the government again getting its cut.
READ MORE: Justin Trudeau 'will make no apologies' for proposed tax changes that anger small business owners
This taxpayer is not hypothetical. She is not part of the platinum-card 1 per cent. She is the voter Justin Trudeau claims to care about: middle class, raising a family, contributing to her community. Trudeau's tax changes will not only make her worse off than her teacher counterpart (which is unfair), they also will hurt all the people and businesses she spends money on, from the computer repair guy to the lunch place she takes clients, because she will have to cut spending to make ends meet under the new rules.
Which is exactly what the government will not have to do. Make no mistake: The real motivation here is feeding the spending Leviathan that is the federal government. After pledging "modest" deficits of $10 billion, Trudeau has racked up $30 billion in deficits as far as the eye can see. So rather than buckle his belt, he wants Canadians to buckle theirs, under the guise of fairness.
But only some Canadians. The millions of taxpayers affected by the small business rule changes are low-hanging fruit. They're easy to find and the Canada Revenue Agency will have no problem shaking them down.
The real big earners — the 1 per cent, people with deep pockets and clever lawyers, people who can move money to the sunny jurisdictions now flattened by Hurricane Irma — will carry on unscathed. If that's this government's definition of fairness, it needs a better dictionary.
Tasha Kheiriddin can be heard between noon and 2 p.m. ET on Toronto Talk Radio AM640. She's also a columnist with Global News and iPolitics.ca, where this piece first appeared.

July 4, 2016 – Professor Steven Bank was cited in the Los Angeles Times on why founder Chief Executive Officers, such as Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, make less money than other CEOs.
Professor Bank pointed out that although not universally true, founders typically make less money than other CEOs often because more pay wouldn't be much of an incentive.
"Take Zuckerberg: Forbes estimates his net worth, consisting largely of his massive holdings in Facebook Inc. stock, tops $47 billion. Because he's already immensely wealthy, and because so much of that wealth is tied up in Facebook stock, the company doesn't need to pay him much," said Professor Bank.

Discussing viewpoint diversity and open inquiry in the academy.
What's it all about?
The HxA Conference will convene Heterodox Academy members, community leaders, campus administrators, students, and philanthropists to discuss viewpoint diversity and open inquiry in the academy. In conversation with conference attendees, high-profile panelists and moderators will define and diagnose the problems; articulate the challenges that professors and administrators must navigate on their campuses and in their disciplines; highlight existing efforts to create positive change in classrooms and on campuses; and explore stakeholder-specific strategies to improve campus climate.
View the conference schedule and recordings of the panels below.
8:30 Est A View from the Academy: How A Lack of Viewpoint Diversity Harms Higher Education
Media accounts of speaker disinvitations, classroom protests, and the proverbial eggshells scattered around campus may seem strange or unbelievable to those who have been away from campus for the last few years. Panelists – all professors – share their personal experiences and professional insights to illustrate some of the challenges academics face in both their teaching and scholarship.
9:30 Est The Coddling of the American Mind, and Several Other Trends That Brought Us Here
Jonathan Haidt, Greg Lukianoff, Emily Yoffe How did we get here? Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt identified many of the current trends in their 2015 Atlanticarticle, "The Coddling of the American Mind." Over the next two years, the situation intensified. In this session, they present data documenting the trends and then explain the six causal threads that have intersected in the 2010s to bring about the rapid change in campus dynamics that occurred on many (but far from all) campuses between 2014 and 2017. To set us up for more productive discussions of how to improve campus climate, the discussion then focuses on questioning and refining their causal explanations. VIDEO COMING SOON.
10:30 Est Big Questions and Heterodox Answers
Alice Dreger, Shadi Hamid, Angus Johnston, John McWhorter, Jason Stanley, Kmele Foster This panel, comprised of people with a range of viewpoints, identifies key tensions and unanswered questions vis-à-vis viewpoint diversity, open inquiry, and constructive disagreement in the academy and beyond. Is there really a free speech crisis on campus, and, if so, who's to blame? At what point do additional viewpoints no longer add value to learning and discovery? Who gets to decide? Does the effort to bring more voices to campus undermine another robust value: inclusion? What is the core purpose of higher education today? And how does all of this relate to our increasingly polarized political discourse and affect our country's future?
1:15 Est A Conversation with Robert Zimmer
In addition to recognizing individuals with HxA Open Mind Awards, Heterodox Academy also sought to recognize the college or university that has done the most to advance or sustain viewpoint diversity either on its own campus or nationally. We are delighted to welcome to the stage Robert Zimmer, President of the University of Chicago, recipient of the inaugural HxA Open Mind Award for Institutional Excellence. As a vocal advocate for open inquiry in the academy, President Zimmer provides an example of the influence of principled leadership. He discusses lessons he has learned and offers advice on how to improve campus culture and lead an institution in a time of rising political polarization.
1:45 Est Opportunities on Campus: The Power of Leaders and Administrators
Administrators play a key role in cultivating campus and classroom culture. In this panel, we highlight the efforts and insights of administrators who have taken a lead in shaping policy and practice in support of greater viewpoint diversity and open inquiry within their local contexts.
2:45 Est Opportunities In the Classroom: What Professors Can Do to Make A Difference
Robert P. George, Allison Stanger, Jonathan Zimmerman, Kmele Foster As the locus of academic learning, the classroom is the most critical space in which varied viewpoints must be welcomed and engaged. All students must feel included. Yet with the rise of "call out culture," students now often report that they are "walking on eggshells" and afraid to contribute their ideas to discussion or even to ask questions. What can individual professors do to help students develop fluency with a range of ideas and be able to synthesize those ideas in service of critical questions and pressing problems? This panel highlights the classroom practices of professors who have found ways to navigate the current climate and foster dynamic classroom discussions.
3:45 Est Opportunities Beyond Campus: Politics, Policy, and Philanthropy
The academy is a historically admired institution embedded within a broader social, political, cultural, and economic context. This context is changing rapidly as America's culture wars intensify and various players strive to change, regulate, save, or harm universities. The speakers in this session will consider the pressures coming from legislatures, courts, political activists, journalists, and philanthropists. How might we shape, work with, or resist such forces to reach the day when vibrant universities inspire broad public support and admiration?
4:30 Est Opportunities in Early Development: Educating Tomorrow's College Students
Tomorrow's college students are today's children and adolescents. Their levels of anxiety, depression, self-injury, and suicide are much higher today than they were just eight years ago. What is going on, and how can parents and educators reverse this awful trend? How can universities work with high schools to better prepare students to thrive in college and grow from exposure to diverse viewpoints and ideas? The panelists offer concrete recommendations for parents and teachers, as well as for college administrators who want to understand, help, and teach iGen, the generation after the Millennials.
5:15 Est Closing Discussion: Towards a More Heterodox Academy
Jonathan Haidt, Deb Mashek Heterodox Academy seeks to improve the quality of research and teaching in universities by increasing viewpoint diversity, mutual understanding, and constructive disagreement. This session highlights the organization's key efforts to date and previews its next steps toward nurturing a more vibrant academy.

Bale wrong about England passion, says Wilshere
Jack Wilshere has told Gareth Bale he is wrong to question the passion of England's players ahead of their Euro 2016 meeting with Wales in Lens on Thursday.
Bale stoked up tensions ahead of the game by claiming England cannot match Wales' pride, as well as claiming their opponents "big themselves up before they have done anything".
Captain Wayne Rooney was diplomatic when quizzed on the remarks, but manager Roy Hodgson called them "disrespectful" and Wilshere also disagreed with the Real Madrid attacker's claims.
Editors' Picks
- Cavani exit reflects poorly on PSG: Darling of Parc des Princes being bundled out the back door
- Pushovers? Arteta's Arsenal rip up the script with dramatic draw at Chelsea
- Don't blame Solskjaer for Rashford's injury, it's a sign of wider incompetence at Man Utd
- Rayan Cherki already has Mbappe's backing but Lyon sensation must keep his feet on the ground
Asked if Bale was right, Wilshere said: "No. One thing about this team no one has ever questioned about is their pride and their passion.
"We are all representing our country and we all love England. There are a lot of young players in there as well who are in their first tournament and with that comes no fear.
"They want to show the nation what we can do and we will definitely be ready on that front. Everyone wants to play and show the manager they are ready.
"You saw that in the match and it is the same in training – the standard is really high. It is a good problem for the manager to have.
"We know Wales well – a lot of their players play in the Premier League and we have played against them previously.
"We know what their threat is – they are going to hit us on the counter-attack and obviously we know the threat of Gareth Bale - but we have to concentrate ourselves and replicate the Russia performance and be confident we can win the game.
"We played well against Russia and we are confident we can beat them."
Wilshere came on as a second-half substitute in England's 1-1 draw with Russia and says the team are pleased with how they played despite conceding a late equaliser.
Wales, meanwhile, are on a high after beating Slovakia 2-1 to lead Group B going into the clash with Hodgson's men.
Wilshere added: "We are in good place. We were disappointed, which is natural when you dominate a game like that and don't win it. But looking back we were happy with the performance.
"We played well, moved the ball around. In the past England teams have been accused of not being technically good enough and not keeping the ball, but we showed that we are good enough and can keep the ball.
"I don't think it is about bouncing back. We just need to maintain the standards we set against Russia. Of course, we need to analyse the goal and look at what went wrong there but other than that it was brilliant.
"Of course, Wales are going to be confident. They won their first game at the Euros after they haven't been to a major tournament in years. So they are going to be confident and their fans will be too.
"We are going to have to deal with that on the day but we are in a good place as well."
