Five Minutes a Day
My pledge this October is to do 5 minutes a day of prep work for my NaNo novel this year. And I am going to do my best to document what I am doing this month. So let's begin.
Yesterday I spent my 5 minutes making the most important decisions. 1) I am going to write a novel in my Charlie Snow series. 2) I am going to blog about it.
Today I have released the blog and started my new worksheet for the story.
For those of you who are new to my preparation method, I use a combination of "Snowflake" and clusters. I cluster my ideas together and then feed the information into a spreadsheet workbook format. I will show you guys this as I go along.
What do you do? What is your favorite preparation method?

Monitoring the Effectiveness of Streambank Stabilization Projects in Northeast Kansas
Streambank stabilization projects represent a key element in the plan to reduce sediment in Kansas waterways and reservoirs. In this project, investigators worked to quantify the environmental benefits of government-sponsored streambank stabilization and restoration projects in northeastern Kansas, with a special focus on sites within the Kickapoo Tribe in Kansas and Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation Indian Reservations.

Contaminant barriers or pathways? Hydraulic and chemical methods to improve characterization of shallow aquitards
Shallow aquifers are heavily used for drinking water and irrigation. These aquifers are often part of multi-layered systems where confining layers, also known as aquitards, can "isolate" an aquifer from poorer quality waters that can lie either above or below them. The aquitard's capability to isolate is estimated using the vertical component of hydraulic conductivity (K). Accurate estimates of vertical K are needed when it comes to protecting groundwater used for human supply.
This project investigated different methods, both hydraulic and chemical, to estimate the vertical K of an aquitard in the field. The key questions commonly faced by practicing hydrogeologists are what method is the most appropriate for a particular application, and how much uncertainty is associated with the method selected. To answer these questions, the research team tested two common approaches for aquitard K characterization at a Kansas Geological Survey field site. The first was a chemical method based on porewater concentrations at different depth intervals; the second was a hydraulic method based on the monitored pressure at different depth intervals in response to well constructions and water level fluctuations in the underlying aquifers. Continue reading "Contaminant barriers or pathways? Hydraulic and chemical methods to improve characterization of shallow aquitards"
Quantifying Ephemeral Gully Erosion and Evaluating Mitigation Strategies with Field Monitoring and Computer Modeling
Soil erosion causes severe soil degradation and significantly contributes to soil loss in agricultural fields, with some producers losing substantial amounts of arable land each season.
To combat this soil loss, it is important to understand the mechanisms related to ephemeral gully formation and location, as well as the geomorphological properties related to storm characteristics. This three-year project works focused on these goals, as well the quantification of soil loss in Kansas resulting from ephemeral gully erosion. Continue reading "Quantifying Ephemeral Gully Erosion and Evaluating Mitigation Strategies with Field Monitoring and Computer Modeling"
Assessing the impact of constructed wetlands on nitrogen transformation and release from tile outlet terraces (TOTs) in Kansas
This project focused on the influence of tile outlet terrace (TOT) croplands on nitrogen and sediment fluxes. Specifically, researchers concentrated on three TOT fields, where the tiles drained to constructed wetlands.
In this course of the research, investigators measured water fluxes and water chemistry into and out of the wetlands during wet weather periods. Rainfall, water velocity and water levels were measured continuously. Automated samplers assessed water chemistry during storm events, and grab samples were collected weekly/biweekly from within the wetlands in order to understand wetland water chemistry variability. During the final year of the project, researchers continued collecting water samples and soil water in fields using lysimeters. They also completed a bulk chemical analysis of soil. These data were used together to separate storm hydrographs to event and pre-event water, to determine the sources and interactions of pre-event water and to develop a conceptual model of nitrogen transformation and flux for TOT systems.

No HW3 upgrade for FSD "Maybe, Maybe Not?"
No HW3 upgrade for FSD "Maybe, Maybe Not?"
Perhaps he was projecting what will be necessary for the Model Y as the later hardware may already be in production by the time the Y is ready.
Mayt the FUD be with you young Jedi.
I think he was talking about the Y only.
Asked on the chat, yes you will get upgraded hardware with FSD purchase.
Here's what I got from Tesla:
Thank you for contacting Tesla. I apologize for the delay in response. Currently, your vehicle is not configured for Auto Pilot or Full Self Driving. As Full Self Driving works in conjunction with Auto Pilot you would need to purchase Auto Pilot then Full Self Driving to have all features. The Full Self Driving package would include future features (including autonomous driving) and updates. There has not been a formal announcement regarding if additional hardware will be needed as features are still currently being developed. If hardware is needed, we will let our customers know and how to acquire it at a later date. I hope this offers some clarification on the matter.
How could he be talking about the Y when he said FSD would be an update _this_ year and the Y doesn't come out until the end of _next_ year?
Thanks Hal. I've been trying to get onto chat to ask that but the chat option never comes up for me.
All very confusing. We have Elon's prior tweets and earnings call which indicate FSD requires HW3. Then we have Elon's statement tonight at the Y reveal regarding FSD will only require software updates (and yes, he said end of this year). Then we have the message posted by dgstan above showing no commitment from Tesla at the moment. Finally, we have no mention of HW3 on the FSD order page.
I assume it is software update only for the Y because it would already have HW3.
In other words, his FSD comment was in the context of the model Y only.
Yes. In context of the Y which is what he was talking about. It will already have HW3, so it will only need software updates.
Yeah he easily could've conflated things
I would like the hardware because of it's discussed processing speed and potential.
My understanding is that there needs to be a robust 5G network in place to have Level 4 or 5 autonomous driving. I am wrong about this?
I meant to write "Am I wrong about this?"
I do not know for sure... just what i have read in news articles on the subject.
I posted this on the Y reveal thread; Here come a bunch of caveats ; )
They have already defined FSD as something less than true FSD, and that redefined thing is what I think is coming out (possibly) end of year, and (possibly) doesn't require new hardware. But as FSD (possibly) gets redefined and developed, it seems logical to me that it will require better hardware for processing and image resolution. Hardware that the Y would (possibly) already have.
So all his statements tonight can be true and don't necessarily contradict previous statements re FSD and HW3
I think that is the most plausible explanation.
There is no standard definition of FSD. FSD can be anything Tesla wants it to be. Also, the FSD order page no longer uses the word autonomous. Tesla has dummy-downed their definition of FSD.
So I think Model 3 FSD owners are not going to get HW3 free. At the end of the year, what you see is what you get.
Any further advancements will get a new name (Super Delux FSD?) and require Model 3 owners to purchase a hardware upgrade. This is what I feel is going to happen.
If Model 3 FSD owners are entitled to a free HW3 upgrade, why wouldn't Tesla promote that on the FSD order page?
Regardless of Elon's tweets, legally you're only entitled to what is described on the FSD order page.
@cascadiadesign: yep, could be. I'd be content that my $2K got me additional "FSD" features unavailable to me had I stayed with EAP. And I was content that my cash helped end of quarter. HW3 would be icing but I agree with your scenario above as very possible.
Here is the tweet, all past and future FSD buyers will get HW3 retro fit.
I think you have it exactly right. There will be another package you need to purchase and I suspect the hardware upgrades will be far more than just a CPU swap. Not sure there's any other serious self-driving program out there that isn't using LIDAR to handle bad weather/nighttime conditions.Maybe Tesla will figure out how to do it with just cameras and radar. If so, that will be mighty impressive, but I've got to believe that's years away.
I paid the $2K to add FSD to the EAP I already purchased because it sure looks like the EAP feature set is done - no more enhancement without FSD. But what we'll see and when? Who knows. It's all a leap of faith at this point.
Just shaking my head at some people :)
There is going to be a hardware upgrade - how do I know that? Because they have a faster computer that they have only been talking about for what 6 months to 1 year now that is needed for FSD.
Also - there are MANY of us out there that have the 2.0 hardware - we don't even get DASH CAM. IF we can't even have dashcam and yet purchased FSD - you honestly don't think we will need a hardware upgrade?!?
And for those that want to make too much of little things - like now FSD means Enhanced autopilot, or is not what they used to say FSD is...ummm maybe but highly doubt it and you are reading WAY too much into it. They have WAY too many people that purchased FSD from what they professed it to be - there would be some heavy class action lawsuits for that switched - so my opinion, you are reading WAY too much into it. Besides, they had to get Autopilot more affordable - so they did it by dropping the EAP features, but those features had to be placed somewhere - so they are added to the FSD list.
But continue to throw the speculation around - but there are some statements out there that Tesla has made that some continue to ignore :)
@RES IPSA: "My understanding is that there needs to be a robust 5G network in place to have Level 4 or 5 autonomous driving. I am wrong about this?"
Seems wrong. All the processing needs to happen locally, instantly, inside the car. Waiting for a cloud computer to tell your car to stop at a red light is fraught with danger. Internet connectivity should have nothing to do with self-driving.
What Elon tweets or say does no bind Tesla to anything. I have absolutely zero confidence in a true FSD functionality in my M3. Put my $2,000 bet on improved EAP. That is all we are really going to get period. Hope it includes new hardware but no one really knows!!!!
Yup, like the statement that HW3 is plug compatible with the current hardware and it will be an easy 30 minute swap. I was on the fence about FSD until ithe new chip was announced and would be included for those who had purchased FSD with their cars.
howard - how about Tesla's own site that when I purchased FSD back in 2016 stated - you can get in your car and say nothing and it will automatically take you home - with NO driver input....
That IS binding...and if my HW 2.0 can't even do a dashcam... you honestly don't think there will need to be a HW upgrade - and that if what was paid for in 2016 does not come to fruition with what they call FSD there won't be major class action blow back? Just curious....
And according to Tesla - Musks Twitter account IS a method of communication from TESLA - filed with the SEC - hence why all the issues Musk is in with the SEC over his tweets - TESLA chose to make Elon's personal Twitter account part of their official communications method...
But again - it was right on their website what those who purchased FSD would get.
This is the only statement I will make. For those back in 2015 who made the purchase for the full FSD package for $11,000 are not going to pay any extra. They are now on 4+ years waiting for FSD to be released.
Burdogg, I am 99.999% sure that is not going to happen:
howard - how about Tesla's own site that when I purchased FSD back in 2016 stated - you can get in your car and say nothing and it will automatically take you home - with NO driver input....
"They are now on 4+ years waiting for FSD to be released."
Never underestimate the patience of fanbois. And when Musk declares mission-accomplished years later and FSD remains shy of level 5, never underestimate the forgiveness of fanbois.
howard - while I have my own skeptic thoughts on it too - I would definitely take that bet with you at your 99.9999% sure it is not going to happen.
And never underestimate the persistence of trolls.
@mos - sure there are over the top that would accept it - but less you forget - there are many that won't - and Tesla paid the price already on their EAP roll out - there was a class action lawsuit that Tesla settled...while some think it was ok - there were many that were disgusted with the misguiding Tesla did at that time of transition....
lest - not less
"I hope this offers some clarification on the matter." NOT!
For all of you who are so certain that purchasing FSD will include a hardware upgrade: please explain why a hardware upgrade isn't specifically mentioned anywhere on the order screen?
Look, Tesla actually *wants* to sell the FSD, don't they? I mean, if they don't want people to buy it, then why do they offer it?
If a manufacturer wants to sell something, then they implicitly want to sell as many as they possibly can. In the case of FSD, there is no lack of supply, as it is just a software download. They can easily sell a license with every car out there, provided people were willing to buy it.
And what better way to increase demand than to promise to upgrade every purchasers' hardware for free?
Proof: most of the people claiming to have purchased FSD lately have justified their purchase based on a vague belief that Tesla will upgrade your hardware. AND IT DOESN'T EVEN SAY THAT ON THE PURCHASING SCREEN!
What if Tesla actually promised, right on the option screen, the if you bought FSD today, you were GUARANTEED to receive a FREE upgrade to HW3 ASAP? How many more people would click on "buy?"
And, if Tesla REALLY WAS intending to upgrade purchasers anyway, then a clear, affirmative statement to that effect wouldn't cost them anything. It would just add to their bottom line. Immediately. And imagine all the free publicity, too.
So, to conclude: THINK PEOPLE, THINK! You are all dreaming. You are all projecting your hopes and wishes on Tesla. Again. Tesla is really good at getting people to do that. Then, once the truth comes out, the Fanyboys are also really good at slapping people down when they express surprise about yet another disappointment. It happens over and over again, and you guys never learn. Just. Stop. Please.
Well, weluvm3, that triggered me to immediately sell the car and call my attorney. You totally convinced me that there will never be any improvements to the M3. Thanks.
@ burdogg | March 15, 2019
howard - while I have my own skeptic thoughts on it too - I would definitely take that bet with you at your 99.9999% sure it is not going to happen.
Elon stated that for FSD (no driver input level 4-5) to be fully implemented it would have to be 99.999% perfect/reliable. This not going to happen and everyone knows it. It is going to be an enhanced version of EAP. Never are you going to get into your Tesla and have it drive you to a destination with no driver input. Period!
Wow - I will take that bet :) I would never say never - just ask Shock about that...he is willing to admit that while he professed NEVER and was continually called out on it - he stuck to his guns of never - and then he had to come back and admit he never saw it coming....
Never is a LONG time. Now if you were to have said your car will go anywhere with no one in it...I might give pause...but it is very easy to see it coming when you get in the driver seat, and watch the car take you completely home without you touching a thing...
But time will tell - I am just betting that 99.999% is you saying never, and I would not ever say that...as I am sure people way back in the day would have said we will NEVER step foot on the moon...
Let's be clear. As you state you go to diner on the other side of town come out get it your Model 3 and expect it to drive you home day or night without any human input whatsoever you are most definitely on. It is not going to happen with your Model 3.
The only thing that Musk said was that they would have FSD features at the end of this year, but you won't be able to do it truly hands free (only because of regulations) until it is approved.
@sheldon.mike1010 "Well, weluvm3, that triggered me to immediately sell the car and call my attorney. You totally convinced me that there will never be any improvements to the M3. Thanks."
I'm curious: what, exactly, about my post prompted you to do that?
Hey, anyone else what to sell your M3's? Get in touch: I wouldn't mind picking up a used one for a good price!
As for Level 5 (i.e. no steering wheel or brake controls) I don't think anyone expects Tesla to remove them from your car to get to Level 5 (no driver input possible). FSD will be Level 4 where you have the option for FSD or driving yourself. I also expect there will be conditions where FSD will not work - it could be weather conditions such as a whiteout or specific geo fenced areas. For example, I really doubt it will work on some of those crazy 6 lane wide roundabouts in the center of some European cities, where no one follows any rules. The first versions will have more limitations, and as tougher conditions are validated, they should be rolled out with updates.
Do not expect an instant FSD on some single day either. It will be a layered rollout similar to EAP rollout, and could take quite a few years to get it all. Tesla, smartly, has never promised a date for FSD, so temper your expectations. Of course some do not believe FSD will ever be a realty, but so long as improvements keep coming (hardware and software), it will be an interesting Journey.
Full disclosure, I have not bought FSD (yet). Thinking hard on it at the $2K price - just to get the dashcam and sentry features, and I suspect existing EAP features will be even better/smoother with HW3's higher resolution processing.
"There is going to be a hardware upgrade - how do I know that? Because they have a faster computer that they have only been talking about for what 6 months to 1 year now that is needed for FSD."
Logically that makes sense. But financially I'm not sure that Tesla can or will be willing to do it. How many cars out there would they have to upgrade? How much do you think it costs per unit for a company to produce its own relatively low-volume custom high-powered ASIC / GPU? (Tesla has no chip fabs so it's a custom order somewhere.) How much do you think it will cost Tesla per car for the service center visit and all the logistics involved? Tesla is now selling the FSD package for just $2,000. Can they design, produce and swap out the computer for that little? How much will the total swap program cost? As far as I know Tesla has not been putting the FSD money people have paid aside in an untouched fund so how will they account for the at least several hundred million dollar cost of this?
I just paid $5,000 on faith only because Musk said we would get new hardware. Now Musk says FSD needs no new hardware. Who do I believe? Musk yesterday or Musk before yesterday?
Brian, with respect it has nothing with regulation at this point. It is liability pure and simple. True hands free is very far off and not with our current cars.
@Xerogas: "All the processing needs to happen locally, instantly, inside the car. Waiting for a cloud computer to tell your car to stop at a red light is fraught with danger. Internet connectivity should have nothing to do with self-driving."
Partially agree, partially disagree. Real-time driving computations absolutely must be local in the car for the reasons you said. Spot on. However, I can definitely see that the car would require situational data from the cloud. Map info, speed limits, stuff like that. It'd anticipate and cache such info. And thus I could see that if the cloud connection dropped, and you were about to drive beyond where the car already had cached data, you might get "Self driving disabled".
@Carl Thompson - I don't know if it will be free or not - I haven't really hinted at that yet - but I do know that those with AP 2.0 hardware have NO way of FSD working even though they paid for it...like i said - we can't even process enough to get the Dashcam feature....
You have to think about what Musk was saying last night - remember, the chip they developed is coming out here anytime...so cars being delivered here shortly are not going to need any new hardware - and a reveal...he is talking future cars, not current cars... At least that is what I have learned being around as long as I have...Musks comments a lot of times are not retroactive, but forward. Kind of like talking about sentry mode - which of course isn't possible on my AP 1.0 car - but he doesn't delineate his statements of what applies to what... So many assume he means the whole fleet previous and now...when a lot of times, he is talking about a future car.
@Ttap, the only reasonable conclusion one can draw is, at best, M3s as currently designed (even with HW3) will get SAE Level 3 autonomy.
I don't see Level 4 in the foreseeable future.
Only time will tell. Enhanced Summon is coming soon. We will see how well that's plays in parking lots. I'm young. I have a good 60 years left. We'll se how the next 60 years pans out.
@howard For sure, as soon as Tesla tells us that we are not responsible for what our car does, that means that TESLA is now responsible. Which means that they are liable for any property loss, injuries or death. And we all know that there WILL be losses, injuries and deaths, When those cases go to court, it's anybody's guess how badly juries will want to punish Tesla for any mishaps.
What insurance company do you suppose will touch that risk? Would Tesla be willing to bet their future? Pharmaceutical companies at least can point to FDA regulations as long as they follow the rules: what agency would have Tesla's back today if they dared to market a true Full Self Driving car?

Notice that in this expression, the $r$ is being marginalized out. This I have no idea what it equates to, and I'm frankly a bit pessimistic is finding a closed-form for this. But any help would be appreciated!

There are so many layers of life.
One by one they start to peel away. That sounds somewhat dramatic or even harsh but it really doesn't have to be considered that way. Everyday we change a little as we learn and grow. If we stayed the same we would become stagnant and our lives would be somewhat dull.
Most of us don't like change but I've grown to embrace change, at least more than I once did. I'm surrounded by two families, mine and my husband's, who have hesitant tendencies towards change. For the most part they lived in the same house for the majority of their adult life and there was little change in career paths. Granted, there is nothing wrong with this at all and it actually is quite wonderful. It provided a lot of stability and familiarity to life. There can be something to gain from new experiences and opportunities but it may require peeling away at some layers.
Layers of fear
Layers of insecurity
Layers of doubt
Layers of distrust
Layers of disappointment
Layers of forgiveness or un-forgiveness
In order to allow yourself to peel away at these layers, you first need to know that they even exist and most of us fail to recognize the hampering layers of our lives. It's those detrimental layers, if left unchecked, that have the potential to lead to missed or lost opportunities. But again, who's to say mis-opportunities isn't the way your life is supposed to be? I'm no judge, but I think of the layers of my life and wonder where I'd be if I didn't peel some away, in particular the layer of insecurity.
I clearly was rather insecure about writing this blog. I had no idea how to set up a blog but my graphic designer daughter was instrumental in this area (see her work below). Over the years, I would write thoughts down in multiple journals of things I would write about if I ever had the opportunity to write. I can remember trying to come up with an introduction to my blog, why am I doing this? What is my purpose or intent? I was anxious about each word and insecure what a reader might think. Would I come across as a novice, which I am, or irrelevant, which I hope I'm not. If I didn't peel off one or likely more than one layer, I wouldn't be doing something that I really enjoy and find gratifying.
Aging is another layer of life that we can't escape from. It creeps up little by little and before you know it, your youngest child graduates from college. Another layer of life. Another milestone of achievement. (And if I'm honest, this is one that I'm super excited about. No more added college debt!) But with aging comes potential for health concerns, retirement decisions and so much more like aging parents. Click on the link below to read an older blog post I wrote a while back on this topic.
My college graduate in the middle.
Our lives can be very fluid and at times even complex. There are many wonderful layers of life that should be celebrated. Not everything needs fixing.
Layers of health
Layers of family
Layers of friendship both old and new
Layers of exploring new places
Layers of love
It's easy to focus on the negative but it's equally or more important to recognize the positive. The good things in life likely outweigh the "bad" and therefore should take ownership of our lives. The actual thought process of counting your blessings and naming them one by one is a mental or could be a verbal exercise that helps us recognize the good things in your life. it also may diminish the place-hold the unfruitful layers have on our psyche.
Spring is a great time for renewal and rebirth. The flowers are at their peak and they are peeking at you. Take a look at them. Study their complex layers and enjoy the many colors and scents they have to offer.
Take it all in. Breathe a little deeper. Allow your mind to take a mental inventory of the good, and maybe not so good, and encourage yourself to change where change is needed. We all need a deliberate escape once in a while. So allow your mind to wander and adjust where adjustments are needed and feel grateful where gratitude should be expressed.

its actually a really good show, i love the comics and the show is fantastic.The zombies are by far the best looking, most realistic zombies i have ever seen.
looking forward to the whole series
It's moments like this that make me wish I had cable. Any way to catch this online? It looked like a sick show, but there's no way I'll see it on tv with the time it's on.
wow the second episode was almost as good as the Darabont directed first one - I think the series is going to definitely by worth following
Can't you watch it on Hulu?
Oh yeah... Good point, I totally forgot about Hulu. I never use it, so I didn't even think to check that out.
It's an awesome show, gotta watch the knew episode tonight. Thank God for DVR!
Very promising show. Can't wait to see how it turns out.
I have watched both episodes. It is a great idea for a series and the special effects have been great but I am not that impressed with the writing so far.

The Gospel reading for the 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A) is taken from Matthew (13: 44-52) 'The kingdom of heaven is like…' (Simile est regnum cælorum), a text repeated in the Communion Antiphon. Victoria's Mass is a parody of Guerrero's motet of the same title; however, the text of Guerrero's motet is a different simile from later in Matthew's Gospel (20: 1-4), so, while Victoria's Mass ties in liturgically in title, if not in origin, Guerrero's motet doesn't. Instead, we are singing his wonderful motet Ave Virgo sanctissima which, far from being a random choice, fits in in two ways.Read More

Education Change My Life
I am So Sreymom, I come from Svay Rieng province, on the eastern part of Cambodia. I have 4 siblings and I am the first child of the family. I am now studying at Human Resources University; I am majoring in English Literature because I really want to be an English translator.
My family is so poor; sometime I wanted to drop out of school. As I am the first child of the family, usually I need to help find income to support family. But my parents encouraged me not to stop schooling because only education that can help our family out of poverty. These words motivated me to keep going, no matter what circumstances. From my village to high school is about 9 km, so I need to get up early and ride my bike daily in order to be on time. One day I heard about Kone Kmeng High School dormitory in town near my school, and I was accepted to live there.
During 3 years for my high school years, it enabled me to successfully complete my high school study. In the last year of my high school was the year that the government was strictly enforcing the rule which students have to work very hard in order to pass high school state exam.
After I graduated from high school, I applied for a university scholarship from Kone Kmeng. I was very happy and excited because my family could not support me and I wouldn't have been able to come to Phnom Penh and study without help from Kone Kmeng.
After I came to live in the Kone Kmeng's university dorm in Phnom Penh, I have learnt to manage my own life and be independent. I have grown very much in my faith and trust in the lord. Moreover, I continually receive encouragement from dorm leaders, Kone Kmeng's staff and friends. My study at the university has been gradually improving in language and social knowledge.
I would like to sincerely say thanks to Kone Kmeng for giving me the opportunity to both are granting me a university scholarship and providing a place to stay so that I can pursue my university education. May God bless Kone Kmeng abundantly![huge_it_gallery id="2″]

You might call it the rise and the rise of Donald Trump.
With his poll numbers at an all-time high and fresh off an expectedly dominant Super Tuesday performance, it's time to come to terms with the reality that Trump is the presumptive GOP nominee for president.
Since announcing his run last June, Trump has fearmongered about immigrants, Muslims, terrorists, and black people. Rhetoric that would've killed the careers of "typical" politicians only made Trump more popular. In the past couple weeks he's gotten into it with the Pope and been endorsed by the KKK, yet Republican voters show no signs of souring on him.
Despite indications they might match up better with Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton in a general contest, his two closest competitors are more than 30 points in the dust, and the notion one of them can catch fire at this late hour is becoming increasingly farfetched.
So as Trump celebrates more victories tonight, it's worth looking back at a timeline highlighting his most outrageous comments, along with a look at where he polled at the time. The fact such statements didn't tank Trump's popularity at any point along the way reveals how Republican voters are hungry for a very different kind of candidate this cycle.
VINE: Donald Trump enters on escalator http://t.co/EGGdEhzNrH
— Jeremy Art (@cspanJeremy) June 16, 2015
June 16: After an awkward slide down an escalator, Trump announces his candidacy. During his speech, he sets a hatefully scattershot tone for his campaign by saying that Mexicans who are illegally crossing the border into the United States are "bringing drugs, they're bringing crime, they're rapists, and some, I assume, are good people."
June 25: In response to Trump's incendiary comments about Mexicans, Univision severs all ties with him. That includes Univision's broadcast of the Miss USA pageant, an event Trump partially owns.
July 11: During the first major rally of his campaign in Phoenix, Arizona, Trump debuts an idea that ends up being a centerpiece of his campaign — building a border wall (at Mexico's expense) to prevent immigrants from illegally entering the country.
On July 14, a USA Today/Suffolk University poll shows Trump atop the crowded GOP field with 17 percent support — a percentage he's easily more than doubled since then.July 18: At the Family Leadership Summit, Trump is widely decried for saying decorated war hero and 2008 GOP presidential candidate John McCain is "not a war hero" because he was captured during the Vietnam War.
But the controversy doesn't detail Trump. A July 24 CNN/ORC poll demonstrates a phenomenon that will become a hallmark of his campaign — the media condemns him, but Trump remains on top of the pack with 18 percent support.August 7: Trump stirs another controversy when he gets upset at Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly, who grilled him at the first GOP debate about previous comments he made about women, including referring to them as "fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals."
Appearing on a subsequent CNN broadcast, Trump suggests Kelly asked him "ridiculous questions" because she was on her period. Specifically, Trump says she had "blood coming out of her whatever."
An August 18 CNN/ORG poll shows Trump still leading with 24 percent support.August 25: Trump has Univision anchor Jorge Ramos forcibly removed from one of his press conferences. Trump sued Univision for $500 million after the network dropped coverage of his pageants.
September 9: In a Rolling Stone profile, Trump generates outrage with the following comments about Carly Fiorina, the sole woman in the GOP presidential contest: "Look at that face! Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?"
Another CNN/ORC poll on September 10 shows Trump still leading with 32 percent support.September 17: Trump doesn't object when a man at one of his rallies that says, "We have a problem in this country. It's called Muslims… We know our current President is one… You know he's not even an American."
"We need this question," Trump replies, smiling.
October 4: Trump tells ABC's This Week that in his view, there's nothing government can do to stop mass shootings.
"They can be sick as hell and they're geniuses in a certain way," Trump says. "They are going to be able to break the system."
Trump continues to lead. A CNN/ORC poll shows that his popularity has taken a small hit since September, but he's still on top with 27 percent support.November 19: Trump tells an NBC reporter all American Muslims "have to be" required to registered in a database in the wake of deadly terror attacks in Paris and Beirut.
November 22: Trump retweets completely fabricated statistics claiming that 81 percent of white murder victims are killed by black people, citing a "crime bureau" that does not exist. In reality, the number is 14 percent. The tweet came from a Neo-Nazi account which was using the stats to stoke racial animosity against black people.
November 27: Trump takes fire for an on-stage impression of a reporter with a congenital disability. The reporter's employer, The New York Times, responds: "We think it's outrageous that [Trump] would ridicule the appearance of one of our reporters."
A December 4 poll shows that Trump's popularity is growing. He on top with 36 percent support.December 7: Trump takes heat for his latest outrageous proposal — banning Muslims from the U.S.
December 21: Trump tells a Michigan crowd that Hillary Clinton got "schlonged" by President Obama during their 2008 Democratic primary race.
January 8: A Muslim woman is kicked out of a Trump rally in South Carolina for no reason. "There is hatred against us that is unbelievable. It's their hatred, it's not our hatred," Trump says of the woman's ejection.
January 22: A week before the primaries kick off, Trump retweets another white supremacist account, @WhiteGenocideTM, to mock Jeb Bush.
Trump's popularity hits new heights. A CNN/ORC poll pegs him in first with 41 percent support. February 8: At Trump's final rally before his victory in the New Hampshire primary, Trump shocks hundreds in Manchester by repeating a slur leveled against Cruz by one of his supporters.
"He's a pussy!" Trump says.
February 19: Trump gets into a dispute with Pope Francis after the Pope visits the U.S.-Mexico border and says, "A person who thinks only about building walls, wherever they may be, and not building bridges, is not Christian."
Trump's campaign initially releases a statement calling the head of the Catholic Church "disgraceful" for casting aspersions on his faith. But he soon walks back his comments, telling CNN "I don't like fighting with the pope," and suggesting the comments were actually "much softer than originally reported."
February 26: Trump mocks Rubio at a rally.
February 28: During a CNN interview, Trump declines to unequivocally condemn the racism of former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard David Duke, who endorsed him. Instead, Trumps feigns ignorance, saying, "I don't anything about David Duke, OK? I don't even know anything about what you're talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists."
He later explained away his controversial CNN comments by saying he was wearing a faulty earpiece during the interview.
On February 29 — the day before Super Tuesday — a CNN/ORC polls shows Trump's popularity at a new all-time high of 49 percent.

First, I am greatly looking forward to taking on the role of general secretary of the NAHT, if my appointment is endorsed by the membership. I see it as an immense privilege as well as a challenge, and I shall be wanting to spend a lot of time listening to members' concerns, so that I can represent them effectively.
Your piece gives a very unbalanced view of my relationships with school leaders in Brighton and Hove. By and large they are very good, and I have had numerous letters of congratulation on my new role, including one from the local NAHT branch secretary. There are bound to be times when a director of education has to take a different line from individual heads.
We have always worked through these differences, and mostly resolved them satisfactorily.
As I am also responsible for children's social care and associated services, I have to leave most direct dealings with schools to two of my assistant directors. It is not true that secondary heads have pulled out of regular meetings with me. I agreed with them some years ago that there was no longer a need for us to have separate monthly meetings. But I continue to chair the heads' steering group twice a term, and I also meet with groups of heads when specific issues require my involvement. Visiting schools has always been, and will remain, one of the most pleasurable parts of the job. I would not be even contemplating taking a post with the NAHT if I didn't have the highest regard for headteachers.
I am certainly robust, but I do not seek confrontation. I would rather work with the Government than against it, and it is true that I am more enthusiastic about some policies than others.
My views on the role of local education authorities are indeed in line with those of most NAHT members, but I believe they are also pretty close to the Government's views. It is not about power remaining in the hands of LEAs, as your article says. It is more about strategic leadership and co-ordination.
But the fact is, on this issue as on many others, I am prepared to stand up and be counted. Although it is never intended, this is bound to leave one or two people disgruntled at times. What drives me is a passionate commitment to improving children's life chances. I believe that the vast majority of people I come into contact with see this. I have no doubt whatsoever that NAHT members share that commitment, which is why I have been pleased to accept the executive's nomination.

I'm not a Christmas cynic; I'm cynical about what it's become
When I watch people giving expensive gifts, I have to ask whom are they really doing it for?

Cropped Cardigans
I've been thinking lately that the next time I am invited to a "little black dress," party, as they say, or a dress up event, I will be prepared. I have found myself in the past, not prepared at all, feeling as though I am showing too much shoulder, cleavage (oh my, no please), being chilled, or downright cold running back to my car…and even all of these combined. Well, this can all put a real damper on an evening.
The reason why I have been thinking of this is because I don't love the cropped black cardigans I see in the stores, often too short, with too short of sleeves (hitting the elbow or higher), and made out of nylon, acrylic knit, or polyester, that feels like fine netting and is a cold sort of fabric. Do you know the cropped cardigans I'm talking about? Because really, I think they are all the same. Not that they are bad looking really, but just sort of not enough there.
By being prepared next time, I mean I will have a hand knit, waist length cardigan made of a wool, silk, and bamboo blend, with sleeves the perfect length, to be determined by me. When it's chilly outside, or inside, or I am feeling a bit too exposed (honestly I don't wear those kind of dresses anymore, but it could happen I suppose), my cardigan won't be too little, or too scratchy, or the fabric too cold, but instead will feel more like a soft hug. Oh, if you don't knit, this is why we do!
However, as knitters know, that means I have to knit with black yarn, which was a deterrent for getting started for a while, but I kept thinking I need to get this done before the next event, whatever that may be. So I cast on the Honeyflower Cardi, by Hannah Fettig, found in Making magazine, issue number 3, DOTS, and it really hasn't been too bad because the yarn is soft, doesn't split, and is smooth on the needles. My yarn is a thicker weight, probably sport weight, so even though this sweater is gorgeous in fingering weight, (I need to watch my gauge which could be bad in this case), this will be more of a cold weather sweater. I would love to make a fingering weight version as well. The yarn is from my stash, Yin, by SWTC.
I have several new yarns made and have added a few to the shop and will add a few more by tomorrow morning. I don't want to send out lip balms after it gets too hot outside, so the next 20 people who order yarn will get a free organic lip balm with their order, if ordered before May 12th:)
It is almost graduation time for our senior and there is a lot going on, including a final orchestra concert, a speech tonight downtown, and prom for two young men here At Stone Cottage.
I hope you have a lovely rest of the week! Jeannine

Yes! I totally know what you mean about enough coverage 😬 It's so nice to be able to make something exactly how you want, not to mention shopping for hours and not finding what you want. Beautiful color and pattern Jeannine! I bet you will get a lot of wear from it. Love these yarn colors in the basket...gorgeous!

Thank you Jamie!

Lovely blog such lovely colours in the yarn basket beautiful. I do so need a cosy cardi on my shoulders I am nearly always cold and even on a gorgeous warm day if there is a slight breeze my shoulders are cold. Still wouldn't be knitting in black though you have my respect. Strawberries look yummy. You do have a good eye for colour Jeannie, the dyes you use are really pretty colours.

Thank you Jackie! A breeze usually makes me shiver, so yes to cardis indeed:)

Candy managed a huge Sunday morning "get" by having pre-recorded this interview on Thursday before the blizzard crippled Washington. Here is the transcript.

Washington, DC
February 4, 2010
QUESTION: First of all, thank you so much. It's an honor to have you on this first show. I wanted to talk to you first about the past month. We have seen a would-be terrorist frighten a lot of people on a plane over Detroit, we have gotten Usama bin Ladin's tape, and we have now been warned by the U.S. Government that it is certain that there will be an attempted attack on the U.S. or on Americans in the next one to six months. Is there a reason Americans should not look at that and think the risk factor is up?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, Candy, first of all, congratulations on your new show. I really wish you well. You have a lot to contribute to Sunday morning television.
I think what's fair for Americans to think is that we have had a continuing threat from al-Qaida and related terrorist organizations over many years now. It hasn't gone away. We have contained it. We've worked very hard to do so. But over the last six months, we have seen attacks foiled, people arrested and charged, so that you have to be constantly vigilant. And that's what everybody working in this government at all levels attempts to do.
In the last month, because of the high-profile attempt on the airplane, people's attention became very focused. But a bin Ladin tape is nothing new; it comes and goes depending upon when he decides to do it. But I think it's really important for people to just go along with their daily lives. I mean, you can't be deterred or discouraged or fearful about what's happening, and we just have to do everything we can to keep America safe.
QUESTION: Can you give me a feel for is the risk higher, is al-Qaida stronger now than a year ago?
SECRETARY CLINTON: It's very difficult to make that kind of assessment because they've always been plotting against us. I was a senator from New York on 9/11. I was honored to serve the people of New York until I took this job. I thought about it every day. I got intelligence every day, somebody was thinking about that or we picked up information about a plot there. So to me, who has followed this very closely since 9/11, I don't see them as stronger, but I see that they are more creative, more flexible, more agile. They evolve. They are, unfortunately, a very committed, clever, diabolical group of terrorists who are always looking for weaknesses and openings, and we just have to stay alert.
QUESTION: If they're more agile and more clever, are there more of them? And doesn't that sort of add up to more risk?
SECRETARY CLINTON: I don't know if there are more of them. We have certainly degraded their capacity in Afghanistan and Pakistan. We know that. As the President said the other night, we have killed and captured a significant number of al-Qaida's top leadership as well as people in the Taliban organizations in Afghanistan and Pakistan who cooperate with them.
We see some new areas of threat emanating from Somalia and Yemen. But whether that's now in the cumulative greater, or whether because the numbers in Afghanistan and Pakistan have decreased, it's about the same but with the unfortunate fact that they are committed to killing and destroying innocent people in their own countries as well as around the world, including the United States.
QUESTION: While we're in that region, let me ask you about Afghanistan. U.S. troops cannot get out of there unless there is a stable Afghan Government. Hamid Karzai, as of this point, does not have a full cabinet. They are now trying to bring in not just foot soldiers, bring them back into the fold, not just Taliban foot soldiers, but some higher-ups. Do you have any doubt in your mind that Hamid Karzai can get his act together and put together a stable government?
SECRETARY CLINTON: I think that the strategy that the United States and more than 44 countries are pursuing in Afghanistan obviously requires that we have a good partner in President Karzai and the Afghan Government. That doesn't mean that we'll always do what he wants or he will always do what we want, but we do expect to see a level of competency and capacity.
QUESTION: Have you seen it?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes, actually, there are areas of very positive cooperation. He may not have a full cabinet, but the cabinet members he has are people who many of us view as honest and effective, productive. We work with them on a daily basis – the defense minister, the finance minster – people who are really producing results for Afghanistan.
I've spent a lot of time with President Karzai, most recently about a 90-minute one-on-one conversation in London. I think he has really stepped up since his second inaugural address. He laid out a roadmap there. He is trying to follow that roadmap. But I always remind myself that, what, five or six years into a new nation that has no history of democracy, let's be realistic about the kind of support that this new government and the president needs. So I think we have to put this into a more balanced perspective. It's neither as bad or as good, just like most of life and most of the situations I deal with around the world. And I think we have developed a much stronger understanding and partnership in the last year going forward.
QUESTION: So no doubts that Karzai is the man to pull this together?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, he is the president of the country and I very much respect the authority that he has. He has asked for help, most recently at the London conference, but he also has his own ideas, as do the Afghan people. So in any relationship with any country, think of some of our oldest allies like France or England, you're not always going to get 100 percent agreement, but you work with the leaders and you work with the people. We're not yet turning the corner, but we are sort of inching our way forward to being able to do so. So I think, on balance, we are in this with people and countries who are committed to the same outcome.
QUESTION: Shall we leave the Karzai doubt question on the table?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I mean, I don't agree with any other single leader in the world. I mean, I don't – I mean, obviously, we have a lot —
QUESTION: I just think that's a little different from are you a little worried that he's not going to be able to pull this off. And I pursue it only because that's the only way U.S. troops are going to get pulled out.
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, but see, I think that we have looked at President Karzai through a lens that is not rooted in reality. I mean, we do business with leaders all the time, some of whom are great American allies, that have a lot of questions raised about them. But we do an assessment: What's in the best interest of America? What's in our national security? What advances our interests and our values? What keeps Americans safe?
And so why should we take one leader out and put him apart from all the other leaders we deal with and raise all those doubts, instead of saying, look, we've got work to do and we're doing it. We are doing it day by day and I think we are making progress.

QUESTION: I wanted to bring your attention to something that President Obama said in his inaugural a little more than a year ago: "We will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist." Has Iran unclenched its fist?
SECRETARY CLINTON: No.
QUESTION: How about North Korea?
SECRETARY CLINTON: No, not to the extent we would like to see them. But I think that's – that is not all to the story. Engagement has brought us a lot in the last year. Let's take North Korea first and then we'll go to Iran.
In North Korea, when we said that we were willing to work with North Korea if they were serious about returning to the Six-Party Talks and about denuclearizing in an irreversible way, they basically did not respond in the first instance. But because we were willing to engage, we ended up getting a very strong sanctions regime against North Korea that China signed onto and Russia signed onto and right now is being enforced around the world.
QUESTION: Did the extended hand of the U.S. help in any way that you can point to?
SECRETARY CLINTON: It did. Because we extended it, a neighbor like China knew we were going the extra mile and all of a sudden said you're not just standing there hurling insults at them, you've said all right, fine, we're willing to work with them. They haven't responded, so we're going to sign on to these very tough measures.
Similarly, in Iran, I don't know what the outcome would have been if the Iranian Government hadn't made the decision it made following the elections to become so repressive. But the fact is, because we engaged, the rest of the world has really begun to see Iran the way we see it. When we started last year talking about the threats that Iran's nuclear program posed, Russia and other countries said, well, we don't see it that way. But through very slow and steady diplomacy, plus the fact that we had a two-track process – yes, we reached out on engagement to Iran, but we always had the second track, which is that we would have to try to get the world community to take stronger measures if they didn't respond on the engagement front.
QUESTION: I want to turn to Haiti for a minute. We're in there with a lot of people. They're doing a lot of talking, and what they're finding is Haitians saying we wish the American Government would come in here and take over because they don't think their government is capable in the post-rescue period of rebuilding Haiti. What's wrong with that idea?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Candy, I'm very proud of what not only our country has done, both our military and particularly our civilians and our new USAID Administrator Raj Shah – everybody has just stepped up and performed admirably. So have other countries. This has been a global response. But the fact is there is a legitimate government with authority in Haiti despite the —
QUESTION: A really weak government.
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, the fact is that we were working with them before the earthquake. One of my goals as Secretary of State, which the President agreed with, was for us to work with that government and try to help them implement a national development plan. And we had spent a lot of time on that. In fact, what's so tragically ironic is that, literally, the night before the earthquake, on PBS there was a – the NewsHour had a long segment about the progress that was being made in Haiti under this very same government. Unfortunately, all of that was upended by the earthquake.
What we're doing along with our international partners is to work with the Haitian Government so that there is a mechanism for coordination. They have to be part of it because they have the legal authorities. Unless a government or a bunch of governments is going to occupy Haiti, which would have all kinds of very unfortunate implications, we have to help support the Haitian people and their government. There's a lot of talk going on, a lot of conference calls flying back and forth, the trip that I made to Montreal for the conference, and I'm confident we're going to come up with a system.

QUESTION: UN envoy to Haiti, you may know, is Bill Clinton.
SECRETARY CLINTON: I do know.
QUESTION: I'm just curious how that works exactly. Does he give you reports? Does he call up and say, "Hello, Secretary of State?" (Laughter.) And really, who's the boss here?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, he was appointed, again, months and months ago and was working on the private sector. He had brought hundreds of business people from around the world to sign contracts to employ people in Haiti. And now he's been asked by Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to continue and enhance his role because of the earthquake.
He talks to the people who I work with. He doesn't – it's not me. It's Raj Shah and Cheryl Mills and all the other teams.
QUESTION: He doesn't say, "Give me the big Kahuna here?" (Laughter.)
SECRETARY CLINTON: No, I mean, he talks to people who are really working on this 24 hours a day. Obviously, we talk about it, too. We have a special place in our heart for Haiti, having gone there during our honeymoon many years ago. And it's a place that is captivating. The people are so resilient and they deserve so much better than what they've gotten over their history. And I think Bill is committed, as I am, to doing everything we can.
QUESTION: If you were to say to the American people this country is the most dangerous to Americans and to the U.S., where is that country?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Candy, in terms of a country, obviously, a nuclear-armed country like North Korea or Iran pose both a real or a potential threat.
QUESTION: And you're convinced Iran has nuclear —
SECRETARY CLINTON: No, no, no. But we believe that their behavior certainly is evidence of their intentions. And how close they are may be the subject of some debate, but the failure to disclose the facility at Qom, the failure to accept what was a very reasonable offer by Russia, France, and the U.S. through the IAEA to take their uranium, their low-enriched uranium and return it for their research reactor. I mean, there's just – it's like an old saying that if you see a turtle on a fencepost in the middle of the woods, he didn't get there by accident, right? Somebody put him there. And so you draw conclusions from what you see Iran doing.
But I think that most of us believe the greater threats are the transnational non-state networks, primarily the extremists, the fundamentalist Islamic extremists who are connected – al-Qaida in the Arab Peninsula, al-Qaida in Pakistan and Afghanistan, al-Qaida in the Maghreb. I mean, the kind of connectivity that exists. And they continue to try to increase the sophistication of their capacity, the attacks that they're going to make. And the biggest nightmare that any of us have is that one of these terrorist member organizations within this syndicate of terror will get their hands on a weapon of mass destruction. So that's really the most threatening prospect we see.
QUESTION: When you look at the biggest success in the past year for the open hand, where is your – I mean, the Middle East is still pretty much a mess despite some really bright minds over there trying to work it out. We've talked about Iran and North Korea and others. Where is there success of specifically engagement?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Again, I would say that this has been a very successful year for the following reasons. First, it's almost hard to remember how poorly much of the world viewed the United States when President Obama came into office. And both his election and his persona, combined with the approach we took of seeking to find the basis for engagement on mutual respect and mutual interest, has really created a much more open, receptive atmosphere. We are working in many difficult situations in every continent, but I think we're being received in a positive way, which gives us a better chance to find common ground.
Now, I am fairly realistic about foreign policy, and countries don't just give up what they view as their interests in order to make nice with you. It takes a lot of effort. But I really feel that the engagement was the first stage. We had to change the mindset of not just leaders but of their populations. We are moving toward a new nuclear arms treaty with Russia, something that has been a high priority with us. We have reset our relationship. The Russians have been very positive in discussions about sanctions on Iran and on many other important matters. I'm not sure that would have been predicted a year ago. We do have a very comprehensive engagement with India, with China, with other big countries, from South Africa to Turkey to Brazil, and we are working together on areas of mutual interest or where the United States can be a facilitator.
So I think that when I look back on this past year, I see a lot of positive trends. Now, this year, 2010, has to be a year of implementing and building on the positive foundation that we've built.
QUESTION: A quick question on healthcare, which seems to be stalled, which – and that's probably the best we can say about it. Are you getting a little déjà vu watching this? (Laughter.)
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, it's really hard. It is a complex issue that touches everybody about which both people and interests have really strong feelings. But I haven't given up yet and I know the White House hasn't given up and I don't think a lot of the members of Congress have given up, so I'm not sure that this last chapter has been written.
QUESTION: Have you called anybody on the Hill or have you talked to the White House? Are you dispensing the wisdom of your time trying to figure this out?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, when I'm asked, I am very happy to respond. I mean, it's not anything I have direct responsibility for, but I've had a number of conversations and both in the White House and on the Hill and with others who are playing a constructive role. And I, like I think many Americans, hope that there can be a positive outcome.
QUESTION: So I want to do a quick lightning round with you. First of all, Colts or the Saints?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh, I don't answer football questions because, to be honest, I don't follow it. Now, if my husband were sitting here, he would give you a very long exegesis as to why one team was better than the other, but I'll just leave it to see what happens at the Super Bowl.
QUESTION: In between talking about Haiti, he doesn't say I need you to root for —
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, no, because neither of them are our teams. I mean, there's not a New York team. I mean, so we're just interested observers.
QUESTION: Who are watching the game with or are you on the phone with foreign leaders?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, if they call me, I'm on the phone with them. Otherwise, it'll be my family.
QUESTION: And finally, just as the mother – recently the mother of a groom, as the mother of the bride, have you found that dress yet?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, if you don't tell anybody, Candy, we're still looking. Yeah, and it's a new status for me being an MOTB, but I'm very proud to have that status.
QUESTION: Good luck on the search. That's all I have to say. As you know, it's —
SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you. But your son – you didn't have to go buy a dress, so that's good. That was not part of —
QUESTION: Exactly. So no Chelsea dress either.
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I don't have a dress yet, no, and Chelsea doesn't either. But we're working on it.
QUESTION: Well, good luck. And do you think it's – which is harder, Middle East peace or negotiating this wedding? (Laughter.)
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I'd probably call it a draw about now. (Laughter.)
QUESTION: Well, good luck with both, actually.
SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you.
QUESTION: I really appreciate your being here.
SECRETARY CLINTON: And good luck to you.
QUESTION: Thank you so much. I appreciate it.
SECRETARY CLINTON: You're welcome.

It's a mirage
THE celebrated discovery of the heaviest element ever found was just an
illusion. Red-faced scientists who thought they'd found element 118 in 1999 have
now backed down and retracted their claim.
The element—dubbed "ununoctium"—was supposedly discovered at
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California. A team led by Ken Gregorich
fired high-energy krypton ions at a lead target. Within the debris, they thought
they could see the telltale disintegration of element 118, containing 118
protons and 175 neutrons, along with its decay product, element 116
(New Scientist, 19 June 1999, p 27).
