Below I have posted two polls for you to grade your classmates.
Because it is important, novel and time-consuming task, I will have to move the rest of the homework and reading to the future. Thus, for HW5, there will be no reading assignments.
Please grade your classmates objectively and spend time reading their home work reports.
While you are reading, please leave comments to their posts. Empty comments (using a period, for example) are also valuable as they notify, that you have visited and read the posts.
Please read instructions for grading. Note that scoring system is unusual - it uses percentile principle - thus the differences are inflated and the students are rated in relative value to average in the group, which would be 5.5.
Please check your submission before pressing the submit button, there is no way to undo the submission.
Please be thorough and objective. I don't have specific instructions for grading consistency. You will have decide for yourself how much negative weight you assign to skipped HW assignments and reflect this in "amount of work" poll. Thus some of you may ignore the fact that some of questions have been skipped by others or otherwise.
Please pay attention that the amount of text in HW of others may be artificially inflated by extensive pasting of search results and citations from the web. Thus total amount of work is not the same as total amount of text. While browsing works of others you would have to correct for that.
Quality of work done.
Browse the works of all 9 classmates.
Please note that first 2 Alex's works were placed in different place:
On a piece of paper sort your classmates accorging to Quality of work done.
Don't score yourself - give yourself score 10 (this is for technical reasons, I don't have a way to exclude your name from the poll, but if everybody gives self a score 10 - this will not affect the final average outcome.).
Name - 1 - least Quality of work done
Name - 2
Name - 3
Name - 4
Name - 5
Name - 6
Name - 7
Name - 8
Name - 9 - most Quality of work done
Your name - 10
Enter the scores at the poll.
Please double check your results before submitting the poll, there is no way to undo the submission.
Submit the poll.
Please keep the paper copy with the scores.

Please grade your classmates using 1 criterion for this poll:
amount of homework done.
Only the average scores will be visible to others. What you submit (your name and what grades you give to others will be visible only to me).

Enter the scores at the poll. Use the principle - one score - one name. No two people should get equal scores. Every score, including 1 should have someone's name associated with it. This scheme of grading is relative (a drawback) but it amplifies the objective differences between subjects (experimental signal is amplified and measured better).
Please double check your results before submitting the poll, there is no way to undo the submission.

1. Read and comment all worth commenting in past home works of others. Your collective works are very good. Reading them is pleasant and educational.
2. Pick a topic related to the theme of the course and invest 20-30 in research on Internet using special searches (quotes , stars and minuses). See if you can localize an Internet search engine allowing wild cards.
3. Continue looking up unfamiliar terms and definitions from this list
4. Read a review by Shindl et al. on LLLT
- Write a paragraph or two of reflections trying not to be trivial.
- What new did you learned?
- How will LLLT change the medicine in the future?
- What scientific and technological issues have to be addressed by future researchers?
5. Finish reading the part of the Watson book. (up to page 113). Briefly address my typical questions about career and funding in what you learned.
See you in the class
Download and print out the reading assignment in advance.
1. Continue looking up the terms-definitions and counts in Google of the terms in the general plan for the course.
Report what you find.
2. Do a brief research on Internet of the history and experimental evidence for morphogenic field. Report what you find. Don't expect to discover much... Check out Pubmed, Google book search and Amazon book search. Use phrase search (quote marks) for the term "morphogenic field".
3. Do same for acupuncture. Expect to find a lot.
- Main answers to look for:
- What western research confirmed the existence of meridians?
- What are the scientific claims of acupuncture
- What are practical applications of acupuncture
- How many people are currently being treated by acupuncture?
- What is laser acupuncture?
- Is there a scientific link between LLLT and acupuncture?
- Did anybody else except Popp visualize meridians?
Check out Google, Youtube (Laser acupuncture, scientific basis acupuncture, experimental evidence acupuncture), pubmed, Google scholar, etc.
4. Familiarize yourself with CRISP (NIH grants database). Search for acupuncture, and "laser medicine" "laser treatment". Don't expect to see there anything for morphogenic field, biophotons, or LLLT.
5. Spend a minute searching for scientific basis of astrology. Just to see how much is there.
6 Reading - Double Helix pages 38-75. (40 MB) (note the file is bigger, the rest will be for the next assignment).
Write a brief outline of the story from two points of view -
(1) career considerations and development of main heroes
(2) financial considerations, who was financed by what entities - Bragg, Perutz, Pauling, Watson, Crick, Franklin and Wilkins (I am not sure in which part of the book this info is mentioned).
6. Keep commenting homework of others.
1. As an exercise, look through the all previous HW reports of others and leave comments under entries of others. Ideally comments should be positive and non-trivial. If nothing is to be said, but you want to note you have read the post, the tradition is to leave an empty comment containing only a period (.) Commenting some of the comments and replying to comments may be a good idea.
Everybody's entrees can be found here:

Subscribe at the bottom of the page: http://www.laser.nu/ (Use your new Gmail address. ) Spend few minutes browsing past discussions.
3. F-A Popp chapter on Biophotons (27 Mb)
Read only essential parts of the chapter. Summarize available answers to these questions:
- What is the experimental evidence for biophotons?
- What are physical properties of biophotons?
- How does the discovery of biophotons change the science?
4. Voeikov chapter on Mitogenic Radiation (12 Mb)
Address these questions:
- Briefly outline the history of research of mitogenic radiation, list key names and experiments.
- How mitogenic radiation is produced?
- What are physical characteristics of mitogenic radiation?
- What biological effects of mitogenic radiation are mentioned?
Next we briefly discussed how sequences of DNA were conserved throughout evolution and how sequences could be compared using a conservation score. We reviewed the concept of splicing where junk portions of pre-MRNA are cut out. Some statistics that were presented were that every cell has 99.9% of DNA in common and humans have about 30,000 genes with 21,000 classical genes. I'm a little confused by what the term classical genes means. We also learned that red blood cells have no DNA, which I found quite surprising.
Finally, we learned the following central hypothesis in lllt: Genes talk to each other using light (electromagnetic waves) and secret genes are affected by light in lllt. We ended the class with a presentation on main sources of information on lllt and watched part of a film on the life of James Watson who helped discover the structure of DNA.
I found the reading, an autobiography of James Watson, interesting because it showed how much luck and small decisions are involved in the most profound discoveries in science. You get the feeling when reading this that Watson was a pretty average scientist. Additionally, he was never really interested in biochemistry. However, you also get the feeling that it takes a source of inspiration to carry you through you're learning and research. Without believing that nucleic acids were the key to unlocking the gene, Watson would never have made his ultimate discovery.
Course-Career Relation:
This course is just a replacement for a required course for my Master's degree, and therefore usually wouldn't be a course I'd be taking. Though I plan to complete MS in the BMES program here, I plan to coach soccer for a career and therefore at a quick glance this course really doesn't have much to offer me towards my career. However, its not beyond the realm of possibility that within a few years, LLLT could become a common treatment for athlete injuries and could come into common use in collegiate training rooms -- thus knowledge on the emerging technology could be useful coaches looking for quick solutions to player muscle and joint pains.
Watson Autobiography Summary:
Overall The Double Helix was surprisingly interesting to read, as I expected it to be much more dull and scientific, which it definitely had its points, but also had a tendency to stray (anyone else notice the bit on page 14 about Rosy's "quite stunning" appearance – just out of curiosity Dr. Rempel, what chapter do sex scenes start J?).
Google Summary:
After searching the keywords "low level laser therapy", the first thing that surprised me on the results page was the number of advertisements and just the overall current market for LLLT. As many of the previous students have written, there seems to be an insurance company that has a strong foothold on the LLLT market, but I personally did not expect this much to be going on in the field. However, as I will be noting this with all the other search engines, the total number of hits for those keywords was 365,000. An example of one of the doctors marketing off this new field is at:
where he talks about documented cases of LLLT on his patients, many times with picture evidence. He also gives a brief overview of the field, and how that laser therapy works, which is helpful for new people to the field, such as most of our class.
Google Scholar Summary:
Google Scholar showed 183,000 results for the keywords "low level laser therapy". However, for this courses purposes, I found that this article:
seemed to be a great starting point, giving a good historic background to the field, as well as, the most up to date research at that time.
Pubmed Summary:
When searching Pubmed I found 84 articles under the keywords "low level laser therapy", and as you can see from my summary of Google, Google Scholar and Pubmed, as the articles become more credible and for the most part, more in-depth and field specific, the results began to dwindle. Obviously I wasn't going to read them all, but instead I tried to focus my reading on the general wavelengths used in most articles. The wavelength ranged from 308nm to 830nm, with most studies being done at 308, 670, or 830nm.
Youtube Summary:
When searching Youtube, the first videos I found were the same surplus of videos that Amber spoke about in her summary. However, I also saw one company that has a video on Youtube, advertising the ability to regrow hair with the use of lasers, see:
This video is supported by a news report I found on Youtube stating, "low-level laser that stops hair loss, and in many cases, studies show it even stimulates new hair growth."
8/27 Lecture Summary:
I figure a quick outline should suffice for a summary of the class, as much of the class jumped back and forth between topics I placed each idea covered is placed under one of a few major subjects:
Biology Background:
- DNA --> RNA --> proteins
- Human genome = 3 x 10^9 Base Pairs = 3 GBp or G nucleotides
- Jim Kent, influencial to human genome research and creation of sites similar to BLAST
- No DNA in RBC in humans, but common in blood of birds and fish
- DNA splicing --> comparable to deletion of computer files
- Double helix --> major & minor groove
- Waston & Crick, Age 23 & 35 respectively, in 1953 used crystallization purification and XRD analysis to show the DNA consisted of a double helix and had antiparallel stranded
- Also noted that Watson has stated he does not believe in LLLT
LLLT (low-level light [or laser] therapy -- major topic of course):
· Mainly focuses on red and green light
· Important things to note from lecture slides on LLLT
o Jan Turner and Las Hode – "inventors" of laser therapy (2004)
o However, laser therapy has been around since 1962
§ Publications in 1965 & 1967 on lasers healing wounds
· Ray Lanzafame – Rochester, NY (www.naalt.org)
o Noticed patients of his surgeries recovered faster after using lasers
o Found in tests that even just having a red laser guide healing time decreased
· Even cheap $10 pen lasers and LED's having healing properties, but the higher cost lasers have gone through human testing, etc for insurance purposes
Movie based on Watson and Crick:
· Showed interaction of with Morris Wilcons, Bragg, etc.
· Introduction of Watson & Crick
I Used "low level laser therapy" for all searches
A nice survey of available literature on lllt can be found at http://www.cigna.com/customer_care/healt
Much of the reason that results are many times inconclusive for the therapeutic affect of lllt is that there is no set standard for determining the dose and wavelength of light to be used. The following presentation provides a lot of information regarding why the correct dose is so hard to define: http://www.laser.nu/lllt/pdf/theimpossib
Google Scholar:
A review of literature findings of the affects of lllt on patients experiencing chronic joint pain can be found at http://www.physiotherapy.asn.au/AJP/49-2/A
In the following article, a low level laser prototype to test the biostimulation affect of lasers used in medical acupuncture: http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/article
The article concludes that while the specifications of the laser prototype were better than or similar to existing products, more research is needed to pinpoint the mechanism of which laser acupuncture works.
A study of the use of lllt for superficial wound healing can be found at http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/article

One of the strategic directions for WIUT is scholarship and research produced by students and staff. WIUT is now ranked as the top cited institution in Uzbekistan by Repository of Papers in Economics (RePEc) run by Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. This ranking is based on the number of citations that faculty publications get on the web.
WIUT students are increasingly engaged in research and scholarly activities. They actively participate in weekly research seminars and research training sessions. The university offers a flagship two-year Research Assistant program for its junior researchers. In 2016, the university launched its first New Academic Talent competition for the best student academic paper.
In previous years, WIUT experienced a successful outcome in an international competition of economics research projects called the New Economic Talent organized by a highly reputed CERGE-EI based in Prague. In 2014, former students Dilnoza Muslimova and Angelina Nazarova made it to the global top 15, while Salim Turdaliev took the second place presenting his project in Prague to the team of professors from CERGE-EI and UC-Berkeley. In 2015, Nodira Khaydarova, another student from BSc Economics course won the best undergraduate research paper award.
Research collaboration between WIUT and the University of Westminster is growing stronger. The fund is to support the research at Westminster International University in Tashkent (WIUT) and research active staff mobility between WIUT and University of Westminster (UoW). The research support programme promotes institutional cooperation and focuses on the development of scholarly and research activities at WIUT and between the partner universities. The university makes a priority to fund proposals submitted by teams of WIUT/UoW faculty. Teams that include both senior and junior faculty members, that preferable come from different subject areas are treated in a priority category.
Regular events:
- Annual conferences – In 2016, WIUT jointly with the Central Bank of the Republic of Uzbekistan are pleased to announce their joint annual conference "Inclusive and Sustainable Growth: Current Issues" to be held on June 10 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. The best papers will be considered for publication in a local journal "Market, Money and Credit".
- Summer school – From May 30 to June 10, 2016, Westminster International University in Tashkent (WIUT) and International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) will organize a Regional Training Course (Summer School) on Applied Econometric Analysis. The aim of the Summer School is to strengthen the capacity of young economists in Central Asia, specifically those of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan, for quantitative research, economic policy analysis, and, in particular, for econometric analysis of socioeconomic phenomena in the context of economics and related social sciences.
- Jamboree – Westminster International University in Tashkent (WIUT) and Institute of Forecasting and Macroeconomic Research under the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan (IFMR) organized Doctorate Jamboree* for Uzbekistan Economists on February 9-13, 2015. Doctorate Jamborees are regular and popular events in the research centers of Western Europe and North America. During the event, doctorate researchers from different universities gather for a few days to share their research results in the usual research seminar format with active discussions.
- Research seminars – Research Seminars at WIUT are open to students, staff and the public.
Research directions:
- Developing countries' economy
- Interdisciplinary
Academic achievements of WIUT students
- New academic talent – invites current Level 6 and 7 students writing their final year project to participate in the New Academic Talent competition. The competition is held in English and has two rounds. Applicants submit their final year project (20-50 pages) and an extended abstract (1-2 pages) to the first round. Selected finalists make their poster presentation at WIUT's Career Week (April 1) in the second round. Papers are judged based on originality, substance, analytical nature, and clarity of writing. Business investors, employers and academics for this event in the Second Round.
- Student research club – Research Club is soon to be announced for all students.

Rani Mukherjee parting ways with Yash Raj Films
It is said that Rani has decided to do films for other production houses and keep away from Yash Raj Films for good. The banner seems to be unlucky for her, as her career started dipping ever since she concentrated on films under the banner. The once queen of Bollywood has lost her place in her own den today.
It may be recalled that all her films under the Yash Raj Films such as Tara Rum Pum, Laaga Chunari Mein Daag and Dil Bole Hadippa kissed the dust at the box office in spite of the hype before the release.
Yash Raj Films however had success in Chak De India and New York, which didn"t feature Rani. Once again, they have decided to do a film without her. This time, they have roped in Shahid Kapoor and Anushka Sharma for their upcoming release Badmaash Company.
However, it looks like the news of Rani parting ways with the banner seems to be just a speculation, as neither the banner nor the actress has spoken out. Irrespective of the rumours, the queen is likely to bounce back sooner than later. She is currently promoting Indian film festival in Australia along with Rajkumar Hirani.

Apple's finalized the next version of its operating system, iOS 5, and it's a pretty big upgrade. Here's a look at all the new stuff you can expect when you install it on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Be sure to watch the video for a demonstration of practically everything here.
Notification Center
Notifications in iOS have always been obtrusive pop-ups and one of the biggest annoyances to users. Finally, in iOS 5, Apple's created Notification Center to solve that problem. Much like in Android, most notifications now pop up in the status bar. You can pull down the status bar to view any notifications you might have missed, see a little preview, and interact with them. You can still get notifications the old way if you'd like, and you can set what type of notifications you'll get in your system preferences.
iCloud and iTunes Match
In an attempt to untether your iDevice, Apple has created iCloud and iTunes Match. iCloud is basically a revamped MobileMe that syncs more types of data across your many devices as quickly as it can manage. (So far it looks like it actually works, too.) It doesn't just sync contacts and appointments, but photos and other data as well. This goes for pretty much any purchase you make through iTunes. Additionally, if you subscribe to iTunes Match (for $25/year for up to 20,000 songs), you get your music synced everywhere. You won't even need to upload songs already in the iTunes Store as Apple will see you have a copy of that song and allow you to download a copy from their store for free—even songs you ripped from a CD or acquired from other locations. If iTunes doesn't has the song, it'll send a copy to Apple and sync that copy with your devices manually. For $25 per year, it's a pretty decent deal. The only downside is you're always downloading a copy and you currently cannot stream your music from, say, a web browser.
Note: The release of iTunes match was postponed until later in October, so although it's supported in iOS 5 you won't be able to use it until iTunes 10.5.1 is released.
Wi-Fi Sync
Wi-Fi sync is a pretty awesome. It allows you to sync your device over Wi-Fi, just like you have it connected to iTunes. If you plug it into power, it'll sync automatically. This is great as you can set your device aside to charge and iTunes will update it while you're it isn't in use. Additionally, you can actually use your device during sync so it wouldn't matter anyway. Wi-Fi sync is a bit slower, as you might expect. Check out our speed comparison to see how it performs against a standard cable

BeschreibungNo conflict of the Great War excites stronger emotions than the war in Flanders in the autumn of 1917, and no name better encapsulates the horror and apparent futility of the Western Front than Passchendaele. By its end there had been 275,000 Allied and 200,000 German casualties. Yet the territorial gains made by the Allies in four desperate months were won back by Germany in only three days the following March. The devastation at Passchendaele, the authors argue, was neither inevitable nor inescapable; perhaps it was not necessary at all. Using a substantial archive of official and private records, much of which has never been previously consulted, Trevor Wilson and Robin Prior provide the fullest account of the campaign ever published.The book examines the political dimension at a level which has hitherto been absent from accounts of "e;Third Ypres."e; It establishes what did occur, the options for alternative action, and the fundamental responsibility for the carnage. Prior and Wilson consider the shifting ambitions and stratagems of the high command, examine the logistics of war, and assess what the available manpower, weaponry, technology, and intelligence could realistically have hoped to achieve. And, most powerfully of all, they explore the experience of the soldiers in the light-whether they knew it or not-of what would never be accomplished.

The new populism: are the Tories next?
For many long-term members, it has not been the happiest of times to be in Labour. Blairites, Brownites, those on the old right and on the soft left – people who once felt themselves to be in the mainstream of the party - have been left disorientated in the wake of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership victory. Some of those hitherto of the fringe of the party now run the show, their authority buttressed by a surge of new members and supporters.
These new or returning recruits should not be viewed as a homogenous bloc, but they are changing the character of Labour movement, shifting its centre of gravity firmly to the left and enabling its new leaders to prioritise social protest over electoral outcomes. More ominously their ranks include extremists who are staining Labour's reputation for racial equality.
Within a domestic context the transformation wrought on Labour is seen as unprecedented. However, against the European and international backdrop, it is rather familiar. Economic and cultural pressures on the margins of western societies have fundamentally altered the bases of established political parties. In the US, a mix of blue-collar and nationalist voters have poured into the Republican Party, calling into question its conservative ethos. In places like Spain, an exodus of supporters from parties such as PSOE to those like Podemos leaves the former more dependent on traditionalist voters in an environment where they might otherwise choose a more radical path.
For much of the past year, Britain's ruling Conservative Party has looked across at Labour with a blend of bemusement and glee. Until recently Tory strategists were dreaming of at least another decade in power and the prospect of 'manspreading' the political spectrum – holding the right while stretching out to the centre with no competition. But the EU referendum has put those ambitions on hold, denting perceptions of the Conservatives as a united force and distracting the party from bread-and-butter concerns at a time when the British economy is entering tougher headwinds.
Even more seriously for the Tories, the referendum campaign is throwing up signs that they too could find themselves buffeted by the gusts of populism. Class politics witnessed in Labour and Republican ranks is now being deployed by pro-Brexit Tories, some of whom bash pro-EU corporations they might otherwise be expected to make common cause with and brand their Remain counterparts establishment careerists. This has found a ready audience among Conservative members, whose attitudes to pro-Remain ministers appear to have plunged dramatically since the Prime Minister's renegotiation concluded.
The state of the membership – which will decide the next Tory leader - should also prompt worries for Conservatives who fear the march of populism. It is increasingly shrinking and ageing, something that forced the party to rely on the controversial Mark Clarke to rustle up activists at the last election. A small, introspective membership angry about the handling of the EU referendum could easily leave the party saddled with a successor to David Cameron who plays to their concerns rather than those of the country.
Alternatively – and perhaps more disturbingly for mainstream Conservatives – a party with a small, declining membership is vulnerable to the sudden influx of new recruits both Labour and the Republican parties have witnessed in the past year. Such influxes usually require a major political phenomenon to drive people towards (or back to) a party. Unhappily for the Conservatives, that is just what a closeish vote to remain or a vote to leave could constitute. Either would pose an existential challenge to UKIP while making pro-Brexit Conservative politicians very attractive figures for members of the anti-EU party. Would one of these politicians follow the model of Jeremy Corbyn or Donald Trump and willingly pull UKIPers towards David Cameron's party?
Again unhappily for the Conservatives, there is evidence some of the Tory big beasts in favour of Brexit are doing just that. When blended with hardline rhetoric on terrorism and migration, Iain Duncan-Smith's newfound compassion on welfare has more than a whiff of Trumpsim about it. So often written off as an opportunistic buffoon, Boris Johnson has been subtly building a populist platform in recent months, scarpering away from the single market, distancing himself from the City of London, attacking freedom of movement and adopting a Farageist tone on foreign policy. Polling suggests UKIP voters are responding in droves.
One bright spot for the Conservatives is that there are plenty in their ranks determined to keep their party in the political centre. In their different ways, David Cameron, George Osborne and Theresa May are not giving up their modernising project without a ferocious fight. But they will need help. The onus is on mainstream Conservatives who have signed up to Brexit - Michael Gove and Michael Howard, for instance – to make their blue lines clear. Otherwise to echo the words of Labour's great moderate Ernset Bevin, they may find that opening a Pandora's Box releases many a Trojan Horse.

If you're the sort of reader who devours Linda Grant's novels while wondering just how much Linda Grant they contain – spoiler alert: usually nothing; clue's in the word "novel" – well, you're in for a treat with her latest. "I sort of like Adele more than I like myself in my way," she admits, over a coffee in her newest north London hangout, an art house cinema (what else, it's Crouch End?).
The confession, about the main character in her latest book, is pertinent because the 63-year-old broke with tradition to raid her own life to write Upstairs at the Party. She pauses, thinking of the right phrase: it's "quasi-personal". It was, she says, "a very conscious decision" to spin the plot from the "point of view of a character that wasn't really me, but did have some of me in her."
The sneaky giveaway is Adele's surname: Ginsberg, which Grant fans might know is her own birth name; her parents changed it when she was three. Adele wangles herself a place at university by claiming she's Allen Ginsberg's cousin, leaving her always to wonder if she deserved it. "Part of the joke was I used to say that Allen was my cousin, when I knew perfectly well that he wasn't." Although Grant got a place at university under her own steam, she, too, was slightly on the outside by dint of applying only after she'd left school early to work on a local paper in Widnes. Both Adele and Linda were born in Liverpool, "the product of people with tricky back-stories" as she writes in chapter two. Yet neither was Liverpudlian, in the working class sense, making it harder, later, working out how to fit in.
In Grant's case, this delayed the start of her novel writing career until she was 45, by which time, yes, she "thought it was never going to come". The struggle for Grant, the daughter of two Jewish immigrants, was finding a voice. "I didn't feel that I could write from the perspective of an English middle-class person, which was what my education had given me – I went to a private school – because that was completely alien to me. I couldn't write out of Howard Jacobson territory either, that wise-cracking Jewish schtick. Then I lived in Canada from 1976 to 1984, in Vancouver. There, I remember feeling, 'I'm this person without a history, no one understands who I am.' Back in Britain, I thought, 'Actually, I'm a product of cosmopolitan places, and places that are not rooted in national or ethnic identities. People who feel themselves to be outsiders looking in.'"
Eventually, the outsider thing became Grant's "schtick" when, finally, the former journalist knuckled down and got on with it (after listening to a friend moan about a soon-to-be-ex-husband who wouldn't crack on with writing his own book). "I thought, 'Oh, right, I've been waiting for some muse to strike me.' So I went home and turned on my computer and wrote about 5,000 words over a couple of weeks. My agent then said, 'Write another 10,000,' so I just cast off into the future."
Adele's university is never named but it isn't too hard to fathom that it's Grant's own alma mater, York. She "dithered" about naming what was still a newish institution when Grant was an undergraduate, with only 2,700 students. "Small means you don't have quite the leeway you do with Harvard, Oxford, or Cambridge, which already have myths attached." In many ways, it's the university that's the real protagonist: alluring yet unfathomable and, above all, unsettling. The university and its framework, or lack of, provides the backdrop to the story and what exactly happens upstairs at the party, Adele's 20th birthday.
Grant on York (but it might as well be Adele): "It was a really small place. The phrase we didn't know at the time was liberal arts college. I said we had this unprecedented freedom but there was no safety net and quite a few people that I knew went under: mental illness, or left, because they couldn't hack the intensity and the lack of any kind of support. I saw now that that was quite irresponsible. What I hadn't known then was that whole background of being ideologically-based was this bulwark against ideology, against extremism. I think I'd spent many years thinking about it and what a strange place it was and what strange relationships we'd all had."
Grant studied English, naturally enough given that the "only thing I'd ever wanted to do was write novels". This comes across strongly in an e-book she's just published, I Murdered My Library. She uses a house move, from something "really big, worth a huge amount" to a smaller flat, to cull her books, books that had taken over her very existence, piled high on every surface, even the stairs. My favourite detail was learning that we'd shared the same childhood favourites, dreaming of galloping to the same Northumbrian Peel towers or dancing at Sadlers' Wells, courtesy of Lorna Hill, or competing at a gymkhana with Jill (thank you Ruth Ferguson).
Despite the Kindle Single – "too long for a newspaper and too short for a book" – she has "massive, massive, massive qualms" about Amazon; making all her book purchases from shops rather than online. That said, she's pragmatic and expects to be out of print within 20 years of her death, tops, like "most of the writers I know". She also holds little truck with the "sanctity of the printed book, in the sense of it as a beautiful object," not even when it's a proof of something she's sweated over for 300-plus pages. "I'm always much more interested in the words." The happy upshot of the cull is that her bookshelves have gaps for the first time in years, so she's back to browsing.
Despite taking her time getting started, she's thankful for making it when she did because the current "crisis in books" is making it hard to get published and even harder to make any money if you do. This creates a Catch 22 by forcing budding novelists to take creative writing courses, something she thinks "are a scam". "What's happened is writers, eminent writers, who are unable to make a living from writing, have to teach creative writing courses in order to create more writers who won't be able to make a living. The whole thing seems completely screwy."
Unusually, she has yet to get stuck into her next novel, blaming the major stress of moving house and not feeling the vibe from her new office. Plus "emotionally" Upstairs at the Party also took its toll. So is she worried? "I think about it all the time. Who would I be if I wasn't writing? Would I be some completely different person? Then I think maybe I'm free of it; maybe I don't have to write. Then I think, no, that's not possible."Reuse content

extra tasty girl
i hope you will like it!
i hope you will like it!
hehe..great idea..5$
haha random in a good way.
I have made the same design with other colors and i prefer the second. To see it: http://missbean.canalblog.com/
I love it but I don't understand the sign.
i'm confused by the sign as well...i love the creature's hands on its belly. very funny.
^yeah. still great though
I am also confused by the sign...
but I would STILL buy it!
I love your style - all the crazy little monster guys and the designs on your website are great.
I am equally perplexed and amazed. This is really great.
i think she should be looking down
and i don't get the sign
if the sign said 'free candy' it might make more sense
both color choices are great, but i like this one best. nice, nice job, treebeans!
I don't understand the 'sky' reference.
I think this would be great if it didn't have the sign. nice idea.
My name is Sky. So, I would love it with the sign. But, yeah, it makes no sence.
Great, I like it!
I am going to try to explain you the sense of the word sky. In France, we have a game which is called the "marelle" and in the semicircle, there is a word sky. Perhaps I did not use the good word."paradise" is better?
Say what you think and thanks for your comments!!
thanks for the explanation, treebeans
If you made it so only 7 squares were on
the hopscotch, then the last space (hole)
would be eight = ate !
You could have the numbering
like it is in this photo
The sign is too distracting.
thanks for your comment helo.I think that i will work on this design again and show you.The hopscotch in france is like i draw but i will change it for using the "eight=ate": it's a great idea!
skye sweetnam?
I wish I could still her clothes
That's a trip. I like it!
Well it's settled, I am never playing hopscotch again. o_o;;
the sign should say "free candy", like someone mentioned before. or something like that....
'tis cool =)
My sis would LOVE it! The colours are perfect.
And the idea is freaking me out :P, I'm never gonna jump on that again!
i would lose the sign, or maybe the number 9 should be on the sign. i really like it though.
I like this one SO MUCH!!
if you want to see other proposition:
I have change the word "sky".
hahahahh its funny
haha. its great. dont get the sign. but id still wear it. =)
Helo's eight=ate idea is really good, that would be perfect!
so clever! i love it. i prefer the "8" on the sign
i love it :D would defo buy
I love this design. print!!!
thanks for teaching me something about hop-scotch in France. :)
i think for the shirt, you should move to '8' on the sign. and i totally love it. 5$!
Gahahah that's so cute!!! $5
well, I'm from Illinois, and when I was a kid we put the word sky at the end of hopscotches too. I was shocked that no one else got it! This is way adorable, but I'm not sure the hole reads as a hole. I mean, it does because that's sort of what's expected to be there, but to me it looks level with the ground.

|Ex Food-M/M
|Ex Food & Energy-M/M
|Ex Food & Energy-Y/Y
July national consumer prices were virtually unchanged as Japan continues to struggle with deflation. July consumer prices were down 0.1 percent on the month but up 0.2 percent from a year ago. Excluding fresh food, the CPI was unchanged both on the month and year. Excluding both food and energy, the CPI was up 0.1 percent and 0.6 percent.
Prices for electronics good jumped 1.9 percent after increasing 0.4 percent in June. TVs also increased on the year. This time TV prices were up 5.3 percent after increasing 3.3 percent in June. However, energy costs continue to weigh on the index. Energy prices dived 8.7 percent after sinking 7.0 percent in June.
At these levels, the Bank of Japan's 2 percent inflation target continues to look some way off and will put pressure on policy makers to consider increasing their quantitative easing program.
The consumer price index (CPI) is a measure of the average price level of a fixed basket of goods and services purchased by consumers. Monthly changes in the CPI represent the rate of inflation.
The CPI has been in the spotlight as Japan struggled to make its way out of deflation. The report tracks changes in the price of a basket of goods and services that a typical Japanese household might purchase. The preferred measure is the year over year percent change. Markets will typically pay more attention to the core measure that excludes only fresh food because volatile food prices can distort overall CPI. A second core measure that excludes energy as well is also available. As the most important inflation indicator, the CPI data are closely monitored by the Bank of Japan. Rising consumer prices may prompt the BoJ to raise interest rates in order to manage inflation and slow economic growth. Higher interest rates make holding the yen more attractive to foreign investors, and this higher level of demand will place upward pressure on the value of the yen.
An investor who understands how inflation influences the markets will benefit over those investors that do not understand the impact. Inflation is an increase in the overall prices of goods and services. The relationship between inflation and interest rates is the key to understanding how indicators such as the CPI influence the markets and your investments.
Inflation (along with various risks) basically explains how interest rates are set on everything from your mortgage and auto loans to government securities. As the rate of inflation changes and as expectations on inflation change, the markets adjust interest rates. The effect ripples across stocks, bonds, commodities and your portfolio, often in a dramatic fashion.
By tracking inflation, whether high or low, rising or falling, investors can anticipate how different types of investments will perform. Over the long run, the bond market will rally (fall) when increases in the CPI are small (large). The equity market rallies with the bond market because low inflation promises low interest rates and is good for profits.

Past Lives With Dolphins
Whilst clearing out some papers yesterday, I came across a magazine containing an fascinating article on dolphins, which literally jumped out at me. I had only just been thinking about my framed dolphin pictures, dolphin ornaments, and other dolphin memorabilia – all packed away until we get a bigger home, there isn't anywhere to display them.
According to the magazine article dolphins were worshiped in ancient Greece. The temple at Delphi was actually dedicated to a Dolphin God. Recently we have been rediscovering that dolphins are sentient souls with large, evolved brains. Although they cannot speak as such, they really do communicate. Read the rest of this entry »
The Magic Mirror
The idea of a mysterious, magic mirror evokes scenes from fairy tales like Snow White, where the wicked queen looks into the mirror and is able to see what her enemies are plotting against her. But do magic mirrors really exist? Can they be used to see into the future, as seen in so many fantasy and horror films? The answer is yes.
The magic mirror, also known as the black mirror, is a powerful scrying tool that has been used for thousands of years. A scrying tool is typically an item with a polished or reflective surface, such as a crystal ball, mirror or even a bowl of water. The seer gazes into the reflective surface to see psychic visions.

The True Beginning Of The Age of Aquarius
There is an on-going debate, varying opinions and much confusion about the Age of Aquarius and when it actually began. Let's clear that up.
First of all, we need to understand the role of the Spring Equinox, which is also known as the Vernal Equinox. This is the moment each year when the Sun enters the first sign of the Zodiac as it traverses the Celestial Equator, Northbound, bringing longer days to the Northern Hemisphere. Quite simply, the Sun commences its annual pilgrimage through the twelve signs of the Zodiac, starting on March 20th every year, as the plane of the Earth's Equator passes through the center of the Sun.

The Elemental Spirits
One of the quaintest concepts, that seemed to captivate imaginations around the turn of the 18th century, were the elements and their embodiments in the form of Elemental Spirits. These beings were the personification of the Classical elements of Earth, Water, Air and Fire.
In the Middle Ages, great attention was given to these four elements in terms of diagnosis, such as the Choleric being linked to the Earth, which would be thus be linked to Taurus. The Phlegmatic was linked to the water element, or Pisces, which often would diagnose lung disorders, thus the word origin for phlegm. Read the rest of this entry »
The Wisdom Of Real Food
My relationship with food evolved the day I decided to start my own garden. I didn't have much space where I lived, so I rented a plot in a community garden nearby, for a very small fee.
Although it soon became a part-time job, it also turned into my sanctuary. Any stress from the day cleared when I went there. I was always eager to go there and visit my growing family of fruits, herbs, flowers and vegetables. It made me feel like a child again!
Connecting with the Earth on such a deep level also gave me a new perspective on my spiritual identity. From being inspired by fellow gardeners to teaching my son important life skills, I was motivated to get serious about treating my body like a temple and also raising awareness in others. Something I once took for granted and paid little attention to, became a great passion and concern for me. Read the rest of this entry »
Create Your Own Energy Cleansing Spray
Remember the last time you changed out a dirty air filter from your air-conditioning unit, vacuum cleaner, or your car? Remember how clogged with dust it was? In our living spaces, negative energies accumulate over time just like those 'dust bunnies.' Even though we can't see these energies, there is a way to clear them on a regular basis. Think of it as the spiritual version of house cleaning.
The first and most obvious step to take is to physically clean your space. Clutter and unwanted items work as repositories for negative energy, so it's important to get rid of it. After you're done, imagine the space being deep-cleaned with an indigo or violet-colored flame. Use this as a silent meditation, and picture the flames consuming all that invisible 'dust.'

Moon Metaphysics – The Wort Moon
Today's August Full Moon is traditionally known by many names in different cultures. The Native Americans call it the Sturgeon Moon or Green Corn Moon, and some tribes also know it as the Red Moon.
In the Northern Hemisphere the August moon signifies that Earth's bounty is fully matured and ready for harvest. Wiccans and Neo-Pagans therefore often refer to it as the Wort Moon. Wort is an old-fashioned term for "plant" or "herb."
My favorite Moon legend is the story "Moon Waters" which originates from Colombia.
Many, many years ago there lived a man named Bochica who was highly honored among his people. Bochica was a very wise man and taught his people how to build sturdy homes to protect them from harsh weather, and how to plant fields and nurture them, so they would be able to reap the crops to sustain them until the next harvest.

Signs You May Be A Witch
The modern stereotype of a witch is that she is an ugly, old woman with a hooked nose and pointed hat, riding a broomstick or stirring up a witches brew in a huge pot. In truth a witch is someone who practices magic as part of their religion or spiritual belief system, such as Wicca or Neo-paganism.
Witches worship nature and love the Earth; they do not worship Satan. That is a myth, just as much as the idea that witches are ugly and scary. Witches are beautiful and do no harm. They believe in the rule of three, understanding that everything we do comes back to us threefold.
The more we destroy the Earth, the more we destroy ourselves. A witch's purpose is to save the Earth. Witches relish their wild nature and align themselves with the cycles of the earth and the phases of the Moon and the stars. Read the rest of this entry »

Zlatan Ibrahimovic was the orchestrator for Sweden in a 3-0 win over Wales on Sunday in a warmup game for the teams before the start of Euro 2016.
The superstar forward set up Emil Forsberg for the opening goal and was a huge influence before being substituted on the hour mark, by which time Sweden was 2-0 up thanks to Mikael Lustig's 57th-minute shot.
John Guidetti added a third goal in the 87th, with Wales struggling to mount any serious attacks in Stockholm before star forward Gareth Bale entered as a substitute in the 64th.
It was Wales' only Euro 2016 warmup because manager Chris Coleman had wanted to spend more time with his players on the training ground before the tournament in France

The U House demonstrates how one could achieve perfect interior and exterior fluidity and continuity with material, colors and space. This spectacular house is created by architect, designer and owner Natalie Dionne who wanted to create a family home coupled with her interior design practice. The unique 'U' shape of the house allows you to harmoniously enjoy the central garden from many rooms in the house. An impressive Sunburst Honey Locust tree greets you in the garden surrounded by an Ipê wood deck that favors easy indoor-outdoor activities.
The architecture and interior design of the house blends so well with it's surrounding environment yet makes an impressionable statement. The interior touches are very creative and make great use of the space. The frontal street view leaves you in awe with all the wonders inside. Located in Montreal, Canada.

LGBT events, gay clubs and bars and all that's queer in Melbourne
The best gay bars in Melbourne
You would think what with the fanfare surrounding Sydney's annual Mardi Gras festival that the harbour city was the clear ringleader of Australia's gay scene, but Melbourne certainly gives its sibling some decent rivalry. After you're all partied out (for tonight), tick off our five ways to show your pride in Melbourne, or up your 'extra-curricular' game by visiting our top five sex shops.
Sex on premises venues in Melbourne
Guys, looking to get some action without navigating Grindr? You can always go to an SOPV. Here are Melbourne's top five gay saunas and cruise lounges – remember to play safe. While you're at it, check out our list of top gay bars and pick-up bars.
The best outdoor queer-friendly bars in Melbourne
Summer's the perfect time for birds of a feather to preen themselves, particularly if you're already out and about getting your Midsumma fix. We've found four outdoor bars for al fresco drinking and perving. Looking to push on? Check out the best gay bars and karaoke spots in Melbourne.
Hares & Hyenas
Having been in operation for over 20 years, you'd expect Hares & Hyenas to be a well-oiled machine… but this humble-looking bookshop is more like a super power-packing transformer. Bookshelves stuffed with fiction, biographies, humour, photography, erotica, religion, gender, coming out, fanzines, health and educational tomes can be wheeled away so that the room is adapted into a venue with theatre seating, a stage, and a lighting and sound system. Whatever mode it's in, there's a fully licensed bar and café, and an exhibition lining the walls at all times. Hares & Hyenas is the project of Rowland Thomson and Crusader Hillis, who met at Melbourne University in 1975 and became partners a few years later. In the 1980s, Hillis owned an art-house video shop in Elwood, while Thomson co-owned Dizzy Spinners on Brunswick Street – an early incarnation of the current Polyester Records. In 1991 they joined forces to open Hares & Hyenas, which moved all over Melbourne before settling in Johnston Street's Spanish quarter, where they've been made to feel welcome. "The changes in 20 years are fairly staggering," notes Thomson. "People only used to come in wearing sunglasses." It's now become a hub for not only the queer community, but anyone interested in socialising in a literary setting. Hares & Hyenas plays host to two book groups, a stitch'n'bitch, ButchFemmeTrans, Rainbow Girls and Rainbow Guys, to name but a few regular meet-ups, and has put on 350 spoken word events. "We also did

Alluvial Restaurant
At Alluvial Restaurant the past never feels far away. You'll find the dining room located between Collins Street's Rialto and Winfield buildings, both of which were built in the 1890s during the twilight years of Melbourne's gold rush; the former is designed in Venetian neo-gothic style. Once a laneway, Alluvial Restaurant is now a soaring glass atrium, running all the way from Collins Street to Flinders Lane. Look up, and you'll notice floors of five-star hotel rooms that once served as wool and wheat stores. Look down, and you might miss another of Alluvial Restaurant's secrets: beneath the floorboards is the original bluestone cobbled laneway. While Alluvial Restaurant embraces its history, there is nothing passé about chef Tijn Bremmers' menu, which takes inspiration from Melbourne's many diverse cultures and brings them to life using local produce, fresh herbs from the hotel's rooftop garden and honey harvested from their rooftop beehives. Start with finely sliced kingfish ceviche, topped with thin ribbons of cucumber and flanked by button-sized dollops of zingy lemon gel. Seafood lovers will also jump on the squid ink linguine – heirloom tomatoes and crayfish butter providing a rich sauce to the fat tiger prawns. Moreton Bay bugs come adorned with flavoursome crisp chicken skin, along with mild, melt-in-your-mouth pumpkin ravioli. And those crunchy, smoked paprika fries with garlic aioli? Follow your instinct and order them. When it comes to choosing a wine from the 1
Have a Scandinavian cooking experience with ASKO
Dreaming of Scandinavia lately? You're not alone. It seems everyone is vibing on those misty northern European countries quite a bit lately. Luckily you can now get your Scandinavian fix without the expensive plane ticket. ASKO Appliances are hosting a Scandinavian cooking experience at their head office in Moorabbin. Hosted by ASKO's dedicated professional in-house chef Paul Mounsey (from Cooking with Steam), this cooking demonstration will dive into the flavoursome world of Scandinavian cooking. Guests can enjoy food and learn how to create meals using ASKO's feature-rich appliances. A sample menu of the day consists of steamed asparagus and duck egg, herb and mustard crusted eye fillet, 52ºC steamed Atlantic salmon fillet and a reverse lemon tart. ASKO cooking demonstrations aren't like your regular sit-and-watch demonstrations, however. These events encourage full cooperation and involvement. The best part? ASKO demonstrations are free to attend. The next event will take place on Wednesday April 18 from 11am to 2pm at ASKO Head Office at 35 Sunmore Close in Moorabbin. Due to small class sizes, bookings are essential.
Here's what it's like to try opera for the first time
Opera is one of our most revered forms of culture. But with great reputation comes a high intimidation-factor. At Time Out, we're lucky enough to have seen plenty of operas, so we know it's not all valkyries in horned helmets and heavy breast armour. But we also know not everyone has been so lucky. Like Shakespeare, The Iliad and The Odyssey or Jane Austen, opera has worked itself so deeply into our pop-cultural imaginations that most of us can probably recognise Bizet's 'Habanera' aria, or the twisty plotting of Cosi Fan Tutte without necessarily knowing where it came from. Given this sense of familiarity, we figured that for most people, seeing a famous opera for the first time will feel more like reconnecting with an old friend than meeting someone new. To test the theory, we gathered together four young creative types, with very different backgrounds, from three different cities, with one thing in common: they'd never been to the opera as an adult. We brought them all to Sydney for Opera Australia's production of Puccini's La Boheme and filmed the results. Melburnian Ali Barter may make grungy guitar pop now, but the Girlie Bits singer is also a classically trained soprano. As a kid, she'd actually appeared on stage in an opera, but she'd never seen one performed before. "I imagine I'm going to be blown away by their technical ability," she told us before the show. True to her word, she came out impressed. "Just their breathing ability… it was incredible. Now I kn
Cabaret the Musical
Transport yourself to the last days of bohemian hedonism in pre-Nazi Berlin when Kander and Ebb's great musical Cabaret comes to the Athenaeum Theatre. The Melbourne run will see Paul Capsis take on the role of the louche Emcee of the Kit Kat Klub, and Chelsea Gibb playing the Klub's star attraction, Sally Bowles. Expect plenty of jazz hands, skimpy costumes, feather boas and famous numbers such as 'Willkomen', 'Money (Makes the World Go Around)' and 'Don't Tell Mama'. Choreography is by Kelley Abbey and musical direction by Lindsay Partridge. If you really want to make a night out of it, make sure you book one of the Kit Kat Club Tables, which will have you seated front and centre, right up in the action. Find out more about Cabaret the Musical.

After working for many years in quality assurance for the automotive industry, retired military intelligence analyst G. Keith Diepstra transitioned to baking, where he says he prefers the environment because it smells like cookies. Mr. Diepstra serves as a continuous improvement manager and total productive maintenance (TPM)/total process reliability (TPR) coordinator for a major player in the baked goods industry. He offers his advice for continuing to raise the bar in bakery operations.
Baking & Snack: Please explain overall equipment efficiency (OEE), statistical process control (SPC) and Six Sigma. How can they apply to baking and snack production?
G. Keith Diepstra: OEE is a measure best used at the management level to show the impact of changes to the process. OEE shows the availability (uptime) rate, quality (yield) rate and performance rate of a manufacturing process. These lines are typically trended using some value of moving average, and the actual OEE line is the composite of availability multiplied by performance multiplied by the quality rate. If done properly, all factors could potentially be 100%. For example: If the maximum possible yield on a product is 95% due to water loss, then 95% is used as the denominator of the yield percentage. A yield report of 85% would then be a true yield of 89% (0.85 ¸ 0.95). When running multiple products on a line, this can get involved but is well worth it. This measure is common in heavy industry and is relied on at senior and executive management levels as an indicator of process/plant performance. It is very sensitive and indicative in any manufacturing environment.
SPC is an in-process control method and decision-making tool. Using data-trending rules, called run rules, you can shield a process from overadjustment and the tendency to react to single data points yet keep your finger on the pulse of the process. Also, due to the function of the central limit theorem, you can make determinations about the natural dispersion of the process (variation) and its "location" within the allowed specifications. These determinations are typically tracked as capability and capability index. These topics would require a great deal more explanation but are easily understood by any trained or certified quality professional. A good source for this type of information is the American Society for Quality (ASQ).
Six Sigma is/was, in my opinion, largely a fad; marketed, branded and overbought. The Define-Measure-Analyze-Improve-Control (DMAIC) method is a good pick if you don't have an established project management method because it is easily used and understood.
Baking & Snack readers would be better served by focusing on the principles associated with Lean Enterprise Manufacturing (the Toyota Production System), which actually got its start when the founder of Toyota read Henry Ford's "Today and Tomorrow" and was further developed in the past century by people like Drs. Lillian Gilbreth, W. Edwards Demming, Joseph Juran, and Japanese engineers/visionaries like Taiichi Ohno and Shigeo Shingo. The principles associated with Lean will serve this industry best. Principles like waste elimination through understanding what is value-added, single minute exchange of dies (SMED), 5S, gemba, visual controls, Kaizen and total productive maintenance (TPM) are among the many things addressed in Lean Enterprise Manufacturing.
How can managers ensure each shift adheres to best practices for efficiency and quality?
This is simple: standardization. Your organization needs the discipline to find the best way, standardize it and control changes to it when a better way is found. At any given time, there is an optimal way to do everything. Find it, document it, standardize it, enforce it and continuously seek to improve it, but control those changes so they are documented, standardized and enforced. This has more to do with everyone understanding its importance than the methods you use to execute it.
How can a person who is not in management influence the way a company operates?
Most operators have a much better perception of cause and effect on their processes than their leaders do. These are the people who should be directly involved in establishing the initial standards for control. They should be the people most frequently queried on how to improve them. Operators have an inherent sense of what is a waste of time and what works best. Their most frequent lament is that leadership won't listen or doesn't act upon their recommendations. Nonmanagement personnel need to do their best to communicate. Management needs to listen. I would be happy to discuss these things further with anyone eager to know more. I can be contacted at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Why no Daily News?
Original post made by Joy O, College Terrace, on Mar 27, 2013
I haven't seen any reports on PaloAltoOnline or in the Daily Post that explains this absence of the Daily News. I'm wondering if the Daily News has stopped publishing, temporarily or permanently.
Does anyone know what is happening with the Daily News?

Silly me, I see that there is an article posted on paloaltoonline that the Daily News is cutting two printing days a week. However, Wednesday is supposed to still be a print-available day, so I guess I will just get used to doing without a printed edition of the Daily News.
