History & Politics
1903 was a banner year for aircraft development, and Stafford County was on the bleeding edge of it. On December 17, Orville and Wilbur Wright had the first successful manned flight of a mechanical, heavier-than-air machine at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. But two months before that, on October 7, Samuel Pierpont Langley—with the blessings of Smithsonian—launched his design at Widewater in Stafford County. The only problem was, the well-funded flight crashed, dooming Langley's dreams of being first in flight.
By 1900 the forests had recovered sufficiently from the ravages of the Civil War to support a lumber business again. Long boats sailed from Coal Landing to Aquia Creek, up the Potomac and on to Baltimore.
Between 1890 and World War I, wood provided one of the few available cash incomes in Stafford. The locals would cut what timber they could and haul it to Coal Landing by wagon or boat to sell for pulpwood. The stacks of logs waiting at the docks were often forty feet high. Because the docks at Coal Landing were fairly extensive, there were a number of fishing boats that worked out of here, also.
Gold was discovered in Stafford during the eighteenth century. In 1787 Thomas Jefferson wrote in his Notes on Virginia, "I know a single instance of gold found in this state. It was interspersed in small specks through a lump of ore, of about four pounds in weight, which yielded seventeen pennyweight [1/20 ounce] of gold, of extraordinary ductility." This gold was found in Stafford about four miles below Fredericksburg on the north side of the Rappahannock.

Kate Beaton's Hark! A Vagrant is like the funny pages for literature and history majors. Each strip is an exploration of a famous writer, characters from his works, or a notable person from history. Rather than treating these figures with reverence, Beaton usually takes them down a peg or two.
Aquia Creek would have so many tales to tell if only that were possible. The creek has been a vital part of the development of the county since Giles Brent established his home there in the late 1640s.
James Hunter (1721-1784) was the son of James Hunter, merchant of Duns, Scotland. His uncle, William Hunter, settled in Virginia in the 1730s and was one of the first Scottish merchants to settle in the Fredericksburg area. James was brought up in the mercantile business and soon began making business trips to Virginia during which time he also bought property here.
Kate Waller Barrett (1857-1925), gently raised daughter of a prominent Stafford County family, was confronted as a young woman by a heart-wrenching scene that played out before her in her home. It stirred her heart and propelled her into a public life. The humanitarian work inspired by Kate Waller Barrett's experience led eventually to established shelters and services across this country and abroad known generally as the Florence Crittenton Mission.
Ferry Farm is best known as the childhood home of George Washington, though it has a history that predates the Washington occupancy.

"Usability is A Sleeping Giant"
By Wendy M. Grossman, Mon Jun 11 00:00:00 GMT 2001
It's probably the hardest thing in the world to make something simple.
Late last year, several reports were published pointing out the usability problems with WAP services. The most widely covered of these was Nielsen Norman's user study, which asked 20 London-based users to carry out a set selection of tasks. The second was a study conducted by Usable Products Company, which studied the way six people approached using WAP services for simple tasks. Both studies concluded that WAP was difficult, slow, and frustrating. The WAP Forum of course responded by complaining that the sample size in the Nielsen Norman study was too small to be statistically valid.
But even those involved in WAP development compare the current state of WAP, just as Jakob Nielsen did, to the state of the Web in 1994, when it was slow, buggy (in the sense of broken links), and hard to navigate (imagine: no search engines!). Mike Mills, chief interface technology for the software and services company Alter Ego, says "Usability is a sleeping giant." Alter Ego provides middleware to help adapt Web sites into WAP services.
The constraints on WAP design are obvious: slow network speeds, tiny screen, lousy data entry facilities, high costs to users. It's not an easy change for a developer used to working for the Web and the richness of the personal computer environment. What's harder to put together is a set of guidelines that lead to good design for WAP.
Even so, some basics are beginning to emerge - both Alter Ego and microbrowser supplier Openwave have published guidelines, which agree in many places. For example, given the poor data entry facilities on most phones, users are happier with numbered picklists, where choosing a menu option is hitting a number key. In any environment writers learn to be economical with words - in this microenvironment they must learn to be economical with characters.
Openwave recommends, for example, that labels for softkeys (the navigation aids that appear in the bottom left and right of the phone window) be limited to no more than five letters, to make sure they work on all phones. Yet those labels need to be clear and immediately understandable.
Mills says the worst mistake is trying to replicate the Web and squeeze all the information into WAP. More than that, he says, a big problem for users is being able to navigate back to the pages they've already visited. On a site the company adapted that features consumer reviews, he says, "We have a little go-to screen that gives the logical links so they can get back, simulating breadcrumbs. Even though screen space is so precious, just replicating the name of the category of the screen they've come from helps people have a sense of orientation. It sounds really simple, but if you don't do it, you make life hell." It's, he says, common to encounter sites where you have no idea how to get back - much like some companies - voice menu trees - "If it happened to me once, I would never go back." Voice input coupled with visual output may help solve some of this.
A big problem, of course, is the wide variety of phones - as if you were designing the Web back in 1979, when no two computers worked alike. Nokia phones have a little roller for selection, so Nokia users like long scrolling lists of menu items; but if all you have is two softkeys and no roller and you have to push a softkey repeatedly to scroll, you would prefer a shorter, collapsed list from which you could pick a category.
Mills says that there's an important misperception about the Web. "Even with a rich Web site, people are only processing a small chunk of it at once. So don't think of WAP as designing for some impoverished device, but as giving you a chance to reformat and present information in very usable mind-sized chunks."
More obvious things to avoid include splash screens (people are paying by the minute here), finding ways to minimize the number of screens involved in a given task (for example, eliminating extra confirmation steps), and being inconsistent about labeling.
The problem for those designing WAP services is that it's such an early stage. Most technologies have a somewhat forgiving initial audience of early adopters who are so desperate for the new device that they'll put up with anything - even if it means typing arcane strings of gibberish with two fingers over a 1200 baud modem beset by line noise. (I know: I've once spent something like four hours downloading an 11Mb video clip of an
exploding whale
(now visible to you, in real time) though to be sure, strictly speaking I didn't actually need it.)
Computer software was a growing industry for more than a decade before usability became a serious issue - somewhere around 1991. Many parts of the Web haven't grappled properly with usability yet - it's estimated that some 80 percent of ecommerce shoppers bail on orders before they're completed.
But WAP's problem is more severe much earlier in its history. User-wise, it's back where the Web was in 1994: slow, empty, confusing, trying to prove its value. But the users it's aimed at are the broad mass of the consumer market and time-pressured business professionals, not geeks willing to spend countless hours and dollars exploring something new.
WAP's other problem is that it has too much competition. Say you're talking on your mobile phone, trying to fix a time to play tennis in the next few days and you want to check the weather report. You could hang up, navigate the WAP service, find the weather report, and call or SMS back. Or you could keep walking and buy a newspaper (probably cheaper). Similarly, if what you want is to check real-time stock prices, you could find a pub that's showing CNBC or stop into an Internet cafe, where for a couple of dollars not only can you check your portfolio but do your email as well with a real keyboard, something to drink, and someplace to sit. For WAP to be appealing, it's not just that the network has to be faster - although that's important, too, and a popular reason for its underwhelming take-up so far - but services have to be designed so they are the best and fastest way to do things.
This is a genuinely hard problem, and it's no wonder that so far no one's done very well at it, although eBay and Amazon.com have made what most people think are a pretty good start.
Mills seems optimistic. "It's going to be pretty painful for the next few years," he says, "but in the next six to eight months we should see some people getting it right. Once we have always-on and easy bookmarking, it will start to be useful. And in three to four years we really will start to see the pervasive Internet." He's probably right: one think about technology is you can keep working on it until it gets better.

DiCaprio utters the words while standing with arms outstretched at the bow of the doomed ocean liner.
It was meant to be a romantic moment between his character, Jack, and Kate Winslet's Rose.
But it is the naffest line in film, according to a poll of 2,000 moviegoers.
Second was Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing, saying solemnly of his love Jennifer Grey: "Nobody puts Baby in the corner."
Andie MacDowell's howler in Four Weddings And A Funeral came third in the survey. Gazing at Hugh Grant during a torrential downpour, she tells him: "Is it still raining? I hadn't noticed."
Swayze makes another appearance at four in Ghost, although the cheesy line belongs to co-star Demi Moore. "I love you," Swayze says, to which Moore replies: "Ditto."
Top Gun came fifth for the moment Val Kilmer tells Tom Cruise: "You can be my wingman any time."
The survey was commissioned by Warburton's to mark the launch of its new Cheese Flavour Crumpets.
Julia Roberts' cringe-making line from Notting Hill - "I'm just a girl standing in front of a boy asking him to love her" - was sixth.
The other cheddar moments in the top 10 include Bill Pullman's US President vowing to fight off alien invasion: "Today we celebrate our Independence Day."
Mel Gibson's stirring line in Braveheart - "They make take our lives, but they will never take our freedom!" - got the thumbs down.
Renee Zellweger scored the cringe factor in Jerry Maguire when she said to Tom Cruise: "You had me at hello."
And Kevin Costner's megaflop The Postman also earned a place in cheesy movie history.
"You're a godsend, a saviour," a blind woman tells his character. "No," he replies. "I'm a postman."
A Warburtons spokeswoman said: "We're a nation of cheese lovers but these results show our love of cheese goes beyond food."

CHICAGO -- Tom Thibodeau slowly walked into his postgame news conference Thursday night with a hand in his pocket and a head full of thoughts.
The veteran coach headed to his customary table in the middle and began answering questions the same way he always does -- though this time instead of the usual pep and vigor fans have come to expect from the baritone-voiced coach, Thibodeau looked and sounded the way his team played: tired and frustrated.
The cliches came out the same way, but the delivery was different. After watching his injury-plagued team lose for the sixth time in its past eight games, this time to the Portland Trail Blazers, even Thibodeau didn't seem to have any answers. The Bulls were bad and they knew it.
"We got smacked," Bulls center Joakim Noah said.
Yes, they did. The Trail Blazers did whatever they wanted on the court, as evidenced by the fact the Bulls were outscored 60-32 in the second and third quarters combined. The Blazers controlled the tempo and knocked down 10 3-pointers. The fact Portland had that kind of success shouldn't come as that much of a surprise though, given how much the Bulls have struggled the last few weeks. Their offense isn't moving well, and their defense -- even with Kirk Hinrich and Taj Gibson back in the lineup -- looks as if it's starting to break.
The bigger issue for the Bulls is that they don't seem quite sure how to fix their own problems right now. When asked what needs to change, Noah didn't hesitate.
"I don't know," Noah said.
At this point in the season, the answer appears to be a combination of different things. The minutes racked up by the starters and the problems with injuries appear to have taken their toll. The constant speculation regarding whether Derrick Rose will return hasn't helped keep the team's mindset focused.
Most of all, the players, and their demanding coach, appear to be mentally fatigued. The Bulls have hit a wall and can't seem to break their way through it. They gas tank is on empty and the only thing that would fill it up again -- a Rose return -- appears to be a pipe dream at this point.
Thibodeau's team is stuck in a bad place right now, but for the first time in a long time they don't know how to get out of it. The edge and energy that Thibodeau always preaches about is gone.
"Every game is a grind right now," Bulls forward Carlos Boozer said. "We're so short-handed. Every game is a grind-out game. It felt great to have Taj back out there, Kirk back out there, and we'll see if we can get some more guys back, but every game is a grind for us right now."
The frustration on the floor and within the locker room is palpable for the Bulls these days. They know that if they don't play close to a perfect game, the way they did in a win over the Golden State Warriors on Friday night, they aren't going to win. That's not to say they've tuned out Thibodeau, because that's not the case. However, the players are no longer blindly buying into his notion that they always have more than enough with which to win. The Bulls know what the truth is and the truth is that right now they don't.
"We haven't been playing as well of late and we've got to get it turned around," Hinrich said. "We want to be playing our best basketball going into the playoffs, and right now it's just not the case."

Do not let the title of this show fool or throw you. "Snow White with the Red Hair" ("Akagami no Shirayukihime") only has the lead character share the name (and not really that); beyond this vague reference, she is her own woman. Shirayuki is a normal citizen of the kingdom of Tanbarun. Well, if you consider an herbalist 'normal'; it is a rather rarified vocation. She has another unique feature: her red hair…which we already mentioned. When the first prince of Tanbarun, Raji Shenazard, orders her to become his concubine, rather than agreeing to this, she cuts her hair and escapes to the neighboring kingdom of Clarines. On her way there, she meets and befriends Prince Zen Wistalia and his two aides, Mitsuhide Lowen and Kiki Seiran (but obviously does not know this when they first meet).Continue reading

Well, "Actually"
The problem with formulas is that, sooner or later, you are going to have to try ALL permutations, even if on the surface it sounds rather hard to accept or take in. With the harem high-school comedy "Jitsu wa Watashi wa" ("Actually, I am…"), we see a caliber of weird science.
This is a hard show to review, as you don't want to tip things. I can safely say that all the ladies up there have a secret, but it works best if you left the show reveal it to you, rather than have me tell you that, like Kevin Spacey is Kaiser Sose (you haven't seen "The Usual Suspects"? Ooops.)
We start off with Asahi Kuromine, a normal high school student who supposedly cannot keep a secret. His nickname is the Leaky Sieve. He finds his demeanor quickly challenged when he spots his classmate, Yōko Shiragami (green hair), in a classroom when school is over and done with. Ahh, but she has a secret (I have to tell this one, but I'll leave the others intact, OK?)Continue reading
"Six" of One, Half-a-Dozen of Another
Although this was a fascinating series, in its cat-and-mouse, whodunit approach, the first season (and yes, there HAS to be at least a second season) of "Rokka no Yuusha" ("Braves of the Six Flowers") was ultimately frustrating, as it came off as a tremendous tease with immense padding. I'll explain, so settle into your bean bag chair with a couple of boxes of Pocky and I'll relate the whole saga (part one):
In this Land of Nod, there is a peninsula to the west, a land filled with demons and monsters and unsavory types (kind of like Donald Trump's condo). Every so often, they get the itch and venture forth to try and kill and/or enslave the residents of the rest of this continent island. Fortunately, coming to the rescue are Six Braves, individuals who have been chosen by the Goddess of Fate, endowed with special powers and abilities to meet the enemy head on and drive them back into their land of volcanos, choking smoke and unpleasantness (Los Angeles without the Starbucks).Continue reading
The "Monster" Mash
This is a harem comedy taken, potentially, to the zenith that it could go for. It is less about the fact that this guy has six ladies or 12 ladies or all the ladies in Kankakee chasing after him, but more as what they are. "Monster Musume" ("Everyday Life with Monster Girls" or, "Monsutā Musume no Iru Nichijō""), tells the very bizarre story of the very bizarre world that Kimihito Kurusu (Mr. Dazed and Confused up there) lives in.
After many, many years of vehement denials, the Japanese Government finally copped to the fact that these 'monster girls' exist. That revelation 'occurred' three years before the 'start' of the anime, brought forth by passing a legal bill, the "Interspecies Cultural Exchange Act". Now, they are officially referred to as "liminals", although some still call them 'monsters' (I prefer the term 'exotics', but that's just me). Society is trying to mainstream them in, so there is no longer a culture shock when you see a dullahan walking down the street. Kimihito is a volunteer or a host family or patsy for one of them, Miia (redhead at one o'clock), who is a lamia (half human, half snake). About three to four feet of her is human; the rest (potentially a total of 30 feet) is her snake appendage.Continue reading
Sneak "Attack"
I always have a concern when a movie comes out of a popular TV series, as I fear it will be a compilation of the series itself and nothing new from the show or potentially taking it in a different direction (as with the "Eden of the East" offerings). Now, there are a forest of problems with the "Attack on Titan" movies (yes, there are two of them; this is Part I). The first is, yup, this is merely a compilation film with about 21% new footage. This does help explain certain aspects better, but still comes off as too superficial, compared to the series, when we saw things unfold better. The second is that a lot of plot and motivation was jettisoned to make the film fit a time length and some of those parts that were cut out may have been necessary to the film to explain things better. Well, I only watch and review; what the hell do I know, right?
The third is that this might be a caliber of preparation for the live-action version of "Titan", but what's the reason for that? What can you do differently for live-action that you couldn't do in anime? This seems more like corporate greed than anything else. The fourth problem is the most troublesome: who is it for? If I have seen the series (which I have), there is no reason to see a Cliff Notes® version of it in a movie, as a lot of the flavor is gone and that is what really sold the show. If I haven't seen the series, then a lot of what the movie reveals will be taken from me if I choose to pursue the series in earnest after seeing the film.Continue reading
Attack of the OVA #11 – "Ban" Won't Wear Out
Usually when you see an OVA, it is a sign or a signal that the second season of a show is coming OR we are going to get the aria from everyone in the show. I mean, you could easily have these two-tripper segments for the whole cast of this show and end up with a 14-episode run, but it didn't work out that way. We start off the "Nanatsu no Taizai" ("The Seven Deadly Sins") OVA with Ban. Now, part of his 'adventure' is revealed in the run of the show, but it is detailed better in this approach. He is also the only one to get the full treatment/full episode for this OVA; the rest (the second offering) are akin to blackout sketches. Ban's tale was a bit too fleeting and episodic for the regular run, but it still doesn't explain how he ended up in that prison we see him in at the beginning of the series. Continue reading
"Pick Up" Line
OK, this show has genuinely the longest title of an anime I have ever encountered. I saw it as "Is It Wrong to Try to Pick up Girls in a Dungeon?"("Danjon ni Deai o Motomeru no wa Machigatteiru Darō ka"), but also known as "DanMachi" for short, and with English subtitle "Familia Myth". It is hard to classify this show, as it wants to be both dramatic and comedic and that doesn't usually work out well for either approach. The initial idea is strange enough as it goes.
The story takes place in the fictional world of Orario whose main feature place is the Dungeon, which contains an assortment of monsters from goblins to dragons. Adventurers visit the dungeon to defeat monsters and take their shards (which look like crystals), and are used to craft magic items, among other treasures, and are also exchanged for the world's currency. But this dungeon goes both up and down, so it is more like a huge tower (of which you see a bit of it in the back), plus those dangerous lower levels, where the aforementioned nasties reside.Continue reading
Movie Review – Trump "Card"
Now, I have never seen anything regarding "Cardcaptor Sakura", although I am aware that it is a CLAMP project, so that means it fits in to the other CLAMP worlds and that this Sakura is somehow related to the Sakura from "Tsubasa Chronicles". (No, that's OK; you do not have to outline the universe for me. It would probably wash over me, anyway.) I did want to see if I could watch this movie ("Cardcaptor Sakura: The Movie", "Gekijōban Kādokyaputā Sakura") with little to no understanding as to what it is about or what it all means. At best, it was a partial victory.
We open the film with Sakura Kinimoto, struggling to capture the Arrow Card, which she is able to seal, with a little help from her friends. That night, she has a strange dream about these ribbons that bind her and take her to see a very elegant Chinese lady (that is the woman up there and, yes, she is a degree of displeased). Sakura then magically wins a Winter Break trip to Hong Kong and she takes along Tomoyo Daidouji, her best friend and support team, her worthless brother Toya and his best friend Yukito Tsukishiro (whom Sakura has a crush on). Also coming along for the ride is Sakura's guardian, Kero-chan (hanging on Sakura's shoulder) and he is more than he seems, but for the film, he's in that form.Continue reading
Silent but "Deadly"
This is a show that I refer to as "We're getting the band back together", as it involves a sojourn of truth and having to find the necessary components to make it all work. Kind of like "Akatsuki no Yona", but everyone knows everyone directly and not by inference. Such is "The Seven Deadly Sins" ("Nanatsu no Taizai").
Ten years earlier, a group of knights known as the Seven Deadly Sins were disbanded after they supposedly plotted to overthrow the Liones Kingdom. Their defeat came at the hands of the Holy Knights, but rumors continued to persist that they were still alive. Now, the Holy Knights staged a coup d'état and captured the king, becoming the new, tyrannical rulers of the kingdom. Let me get this straight: you saved us from one type of tyrant to install yourself as another kind of tyrant. Nifty. The third princess, Elizabeth Lyonesse, (cutie pie to the far left) starts out on a journey to find the Seven Deadly Sins and enlist their help in taking back the kingdom.Continue reading
Northwest "Passage"
I was honestly not expecting a second season from this quarter, but we have "Mushi Shi: Next Passage". For the first season, I felt they were just tales of the weird and of these odd creatures called Mushi. It wasn't until the second season that I saw it for what it really was: a caliber of horror. But it is done in a deliberate way, and not relying on gore and dismemberment and other bloody tropes that bedevil many horror shows. Intellectual horror? That's a good term.
Ginko is still wandering the countryside, trying to help people in regards with their Mushi issues and always working to expand overall knowledge of them. The opening credits show a variety of Mushi. Take note, as you will be seeing most of them throughout the season. This also had something that I never thought I would see: Ginko lose! One thing that bothered me throughout the season is that Ginko seemed surprised. Look, if he has been a Mushi master for 15 to 20 years (how old is he, anyway), nothing should come as a surprise. I will let you get away with "I have never encountered this before", as it is a big world out there, but he should never be shocked or surprised or perplexed…except the episode where he loses (Episode 17 – "Azure Waters").Continue reading

my god your an idiot. phillipino? that's one of the most fucked up ways of spelling it that I've seen in a long time. maybe look in a dictionary dumb shit. I still can't believe that you did that and tried to insult someone at the same time.

you're wrong it IS Filipino

as someone who is pinay there is actually a huge difference. Filipino is the correct way to spell it when speaking of people. Philipino is the correct way when speaking of the place. noone is right or wrong.

A comprehensive blood count---more commonly known as a complete blood count, or CBC---is a blood test used to determine the amounts of each specific type of blood cell present in circulating blood. A low blood count means that one or more of the blood cell types is present in lower numbers than usual. This decrease is often caused by an underlying medical condition or problem.
Other People Are Reading
A complete blood count determines the number of four separate types of blood cells or proteins in circulating blood: red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and haemoglobin. The test also determines the exact proportion of the blood's red blood cell to plasma ratio, a number that is known as the hematocrit. A decreased population in the blood of any of the four blood cells or proteins can be caused by a variety of disorders, and gives physicians a starting point for further diagnosis and treatment.
Low red blood cell count
A low red blood cell count is most often caused by conditions that disrupt the body's ability to produce properly functioning red blood cells. These conditions can involve a lack of iron, as in iron deficiency anaemia, or can be caused by disorders that suppress the bone marrow's ability to produce the cells, such as kidney disease, pernicious anaemia or aplastic anaemia. Pregnancy, excessive blood loss from cancer or internal ulcers, and genetic disorders such as sickle cell anaemia also cause red blood cell counts to drop.
Low white blood cell count
A low white blood cell count can be the result of bone marrow damaging disorders such as cancer; immune diseases, such as HIV, AIDS or rheumatoid arthritis that target and destroy white blood cells; or drugs and medications that damage the bone marrow's blood cell producing capabilities. Low white blood cells counts can also be the result of inheritable disorders, but this is much less common.
Low platelet count
A low platelet count in the blood---a condition known as thrombocytopenia---is usually caused by either a severe decrease in the amount of platelets being produced by the bone marrow or a medical disorder that involves the destruction or abnormally rapid use of the platelets. Conditions that can result in a low platelet count include severe bacterial or viral infections, autoimmune diseases, certain types of cancer and genetic disorders.
Low haemoglobin count
Haemoglobin is the protein in red blood cells that is responsible for carrying oxygen. Haemoglobin and red blood cell counts go hand-in-hand: if one is low, it is indicative of a decrease in the other. Since haemoglobin is dependent on iron to function properly, iron deficiencies in the body can contribute to a low haemoglobin count. Other low haemoglobin count causes are similar to those of low red blood cell count causes---blood loss, autoimmune disorders, medications that disrupt the function of the bone marrow and disorders such as cancer or kidney disease.

Woodland Moth
Observed: 18th February 2012 By: snowdon
Added: 18th February 2012
Very Grey in colour, no brown evident, clear kidney and oval
Other observations of Lead-coloured Drab (Orthosia populeti)
Species with which Lead-coloured Drab (Orthosia populeti) interacts
A difficult pair, this and Clouded Drab. Gut feeling is that this is a Clouded Drab, as the wing shape looks slightly pointed.
Lead-coloured Drab
You can just the start of the antennae which are feathered, male Clouded Drab never has these. The original ID is correct, this is a male Lead-coloured Drab.
You are right that there is some feathering at the start of the antennae, which I had missed, so I have removed my agreement with incerta. I would like to see the rest of the antennae to be sure, though, of populeti. It is not true to say that incerta has no feathering...it does have projections, but certainly slight in comparison.
Fair enough, but that 'level
Fair enough, but that 'level of feathering' right at the start of the antennae wouldn't be right for incerta, in my opinion.
I would also add the markings are consistent with O. populeti. With the large stigma having slight white-outlining. The wing-tips are also relatively rounded I'd say. In fact I had a moth similar to this last night which is certainly populeti. I've just added it:
Yes, I am sure you are right and I agree with your latest sighting, where the underside view shows the antennae nicely. I am a bit old school, I suppose...I like to see the whole thing to be certain!
Liking to see the whole thing
Liking to see the whole thing to be certain is a good thing! At least then you can be absolutely sure and it allows you to notice all the small details, makes it a lot more interesting!

President Donald Trump has scheduled another campaign rally, this time in Nashville, Tennessee. Jackson was born in relative poverty, while Trump famously entered the world in wealth, and the presidency without any experience in public service. Trump plans to visit late in the afternoon, laying a wreath on Jackson's tomb, taking a tour and learning more about Jackson.
ACLU-TN's website says the organization has planned an event in downtown Nashville to "mobilize against recent attacks on civil liberties by the White House and Congress - from the Muslim ban to attacks on immigrants to efforts to defund Planned Parenthood and more".
Although a portrait of Jackson now hangs in the Oval Office, Trump's comments on the former president have been vague at best.
In true Jacksonian fashion, Trump will leave the Hermitage for a rally in Nashville's Municipal Auditorium. Similar to Trump, Jackson asserted the system was rigged against him.
Beauty and the Beast pulled from screens due to 'gay moment'
The former Harry Potter actress said she wanted to take on the character of Belle because "she's so fierce, she's so smart". The new Beauty and the Beast songs are written by Alan Menken , the man who wrote the original songs nearly 30 years ago.
"Like [Andrew] Jackson's populism, we're going to build an entirely new political movement", Bannon told the Hollywood Reporter. Jackson also forced Native American nations to move west of the Mississippi River, a ruthless relocation that became known as the "Trail of Tears". On Inauguration Day, Bannon again invoked Jackson. He repeatedly hinted throughout the campaign that he might continue to hold rallies as president.
House Republicans recently unveiled their replacement for the Affordable Care Act, the Obamacare legislation they have long vowed to repeal.
President Trump will be the 14th U.S. President to visit The Hermitage. "This is the plan we ran on all of past year".

Distributed Systems Before Big Data Computer Science Essay
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
The amount data being captured is growing exponentially. Consider the number of likes/share in Facebook, tweets/re-tweet in Twitter, +1's/shares in Google+, Financial data, Banking Transactions and Health care policies from millions of users across the world.
FB has more than 15 Petabyte of data, eBay has more than 5 Petabyte of data and other companies like Google, Yahoo also have data at the similar range and they generate data at a rapid pace.
Note: 1 Petabyte = 1024 Terabyte, 1 Terabyte = 1024 Gigabyte.
Distributed Systems before Big Data
Data is stored in a centralized Storage Area Network (SAN). So when processing needs to be done on that data, it needs to be copied to the processing nodes which works fine for relatively limited amount of data. The bottleneck here was not the computing power of the processing nodes, but the time taken to transfer the data to the processing nodes.
Some numbers to look at
Typical disk data transfer rate: 75 Megabyte/sec
Time taken to transfer 100 Megabyte of data to the processor: 22 minutes
And for processing, it needs more time as most servers will not have 100Gigabyte of RAM space
A new approach was needed to reduce latency in data transfer and to satisfy the following needs.
Component Failure Support
Consider a large scale system that has more than 1000+ machines which has at least 10 disks mounted on it. The mean time to failure of a disk is approximately 3 years. So on average at least 10 machines fail every day. So they system should be capable of handling failures.
Component Recovery
If a component of a system fails and then recovers and comes back online or if it is replaced, it should be able to rejoin the system without any requirement to restart the system.
Component failure during execution should not affect the outcome of the system. The end user should not feel any inconsistency.
Adding load to the system should result in a graceful decline in performance of individual jobs. Increasing resources should support a proportional increase in load capacity.
There are many organizations like CloudEra, Teradata, SAS, EMC, IBM and others that work on this domain. Companies like Google and Amazon are having their own products on their cloud. Facebook and Yahoo are investing in Apache's Hadoop -based software and services and offers a powerful new data platform that enables enterprises and organizations to look at all their data - structured as well as unstructured - and ask bigger questions for unprecedented insight at the speed of thought. Let us take Hadoop as an example to understand the Big Data better.
Hadoop is an open source implementation of Google's MapReduce which consists of Large Scale Distributed File Systems called HDFS - Hadoop Distributed File System, i.e., disk on every server with the software infrastructure to spread your data out among all among them and MapReduce that pushes the code to the data on the servers and run the code in parallel on all servers.
With Hadoop, no data is too big. And in today's hyper-connected world where people and businesses are creating more and more data every day, Hadoop's capability to grow virtually without limits means businesses and organizations can now unlock potential value from all their data.
Hadoop is based on GFS (Google File System) and Google's MapReduce. They address a radical new approach to the problems existing in distributed computing by handling reliability and scalability issues.
Core concept
The core concept is to distribute the data in the processing nodes as it is initially stored in the system. Individual nodes can work on data local to those nodes which make sure that there is no data transfer needed for the initial phase of processing.
The core concept can be better understood with the overview of Hadoop provided below.
Hadoop: Very High Level Overview
The large size of data is broken down into 64Mb or 128Mb blocks.
Map Tasks (the first step in MapReduce) puts the processing to be done on each block. These tasks are the tasks that are not done on real time basis. These are tasks that run on raw data to create useful information that will be helpful to improve performances in real time scenarios.
Master program coordinates the scheduling. The master allocates which machine should run a Map Task. The master will pick one of the machines that contain the replicated data.
With this Architecture many nodes (processing nodes) work parallel on a small block of data.
Fault Tolerance
If a node fails, the master will detect the failure and reassign the work to a different node on the system that contains the replicated data. Restarting a task does not require communication with nodes working on other portions of data. If a system is recovered, it can be automatically added back to the system and assigned new tasks.
If a node appears to be running slowly, the master can redundantly execute another instance of the same task and the result from the first node to finish the task will be used.
Master's failure
In Hadoop system if the master fails then the Hadoop cluster is unavailable. Hadoop is used as a batch processing system. In that case it is not a problem if the processing is stopped for a few minutes and it is restarted. But in real time systems, it is not acceptable. There is a lot of effort being put in this issue by companies like CloudEra to increase the availability of the master.
Programming Languages and Hadoop
Hadoop was developed in Java. But it can be used to write processing in any language. PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby, etc… Just that one needs to figure out a way to find an algorithm that can divide the problems into subsets and work parallel on the blocks that are stored in HDFS.
Some open source projects that are designed to add additional functionality and capabilities to Hadoop. For instance Hadoop doesn't support SQL files. So there are tools that help in making importing SQL files into Hadoop and vice versa. These tools are listed in http://hadoop.apache.org/
Uses of Big Data Analytics
ETL Process in Data Warehousing - Speed up ETL processing
Graph Analysis - To suggest a Friend or a Connection in social networking
Recommendations - Product recommendations in eCommerce
Hadoop on cloud
Vast majority of Hadoop users run it in data centers. But, it always depends on the need. The tradeoff here is the amount of the time Hadoop needs to be running. If it is necessary for the system to use Hadoop 24X7, then the best option is to build your own infrastructure and if Hadoop will run only for a very less amount of time then Cloud services can be used.

Consumers were right to be worried, but can the TPP be redeemed?
This week's leak of a recent version of the intellectual property chapter of the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement (TPP) has sparked much outrage over the maximalist copyright and patent policies that the United States government, in particular, is seeking to impose on countries around the world.
Using the cover of a trade agreement, which was once used to negotiate mutual reductions in import tariffs, the TPP also seeks to make significant, permanent changes to the intellectual property laws and policies of the countries of the Asia-Pacific region – not to mention the many other significant legal and regulatory changes contained in other chapters of the agreement.
These changes would limit the ways that consumers can use digital products, and allow copyright owners to meddle with our access to the Internet, whilst jacking up the prices of IP-intensive goods such as books and medicines.
The United States is not the only country pushing anti-consumer intellectual property rules – for example Mexico wants a life plus 100 year copyright term, which would leave Franz Kafka's works still under copyright today, and Australia is bucking the recommendations of its own IT pricing inquiry in pushing for tougher limitations on the circumvention of digital locks.
Whilst there may have been some justification in negotiating tariff rates behind closed doors, there is no justification to change intellectual property laws in the same opaque and unaccountable fashion. These are issues on which that the public has a right to be know what is being negotiated on their behalf, and to participate in shaping those negotiations.
There remains a good case that the TPP, as a whole, ought to be rejected regardless of its content unless there is a radical improvement in the transparency and accountability of the negotiation process.
But at the end of the day, there are powerful commercial and political forces behind the TPP, and significant stakes beyond just intellectual property, which might just push the agreement over the line. If that happens, we need to pay a lot more attention to the good (or at least, the less bad) proposals in the IP chapter of the TPP, and to support those as a fallback position to the rejection of the whole deal.
In this context, a point that many commentators have missed is that most of the other countries negotiating the agreement are pushing back against the most extreme proposals with much more balanced rules, some of which are actually good for consumers. These contributions could be the saviour of the TPP for consumers if, despite our wishes, the agreement is pushed through regardless.
For example there are innovative proposals from Chile, Vietnam and Peru to uphold the public domain, a Mexican proposal to preserve parties' flexibility to refuse recognition of software patents, and alternative and more flexible approaches to the vexed questions of digital locks and ISP liability.
The TPP doesn't deserve to succeed – but if it will anyway, we need to take a more nuanced approach to it than just opposing the text's most extreme positions. We also need to recognise those provisions that could serve consumers relatively well. Whilst maintaining our call to stop the TPP if the negotiators won't let us be a part of it, we can also, quite consistently with that, demand that any new treaty or agreement should be based around provisions that are in the broad public interest rather than narrow corporate interests – and there are some such provisions in the leaked TPP text, that deserve our qualified support.
