After more than 40 hours of public input at hearings last fall and, more recently, at follow-up meetings with the community, three recurring concerns were voiced: the height of the parking structure and operation of a planned public restaurant being incongruous with the City's comprehensive plan, noise from the planned restaurant, and the potential for increased traffic. Selby Gardens' compromise Master Plan cuts the parking structure's overall height by 40% and no longer seeks a change to the City's comprehensive plan; reduces the size of the planned restaurant from 185 to a maximum of 110 seats; and limits the restaurant's hours of operation to mirror the Gardens' hours to cut down on noise and traffic from non-Gardens patrons. Our long-term goals remain protecting our collections, preserving our history, and sustaining our future. Thank you for your support of Selby Gardens during this vital time in our history.
Please read these press releases for complete details.

We wanted to take this opportunity to answer some key questions about Selby Gardens' efforts to make the compromise Master Plan at the Downtown Sarasota campus a reality. This vital undertaking will preserve our history and sustain our future.
How will the Historic Spanish Point campus be affected by the Compromise Master Plan at the Downtown Sarasota campus?
The addition of the Historic Spanish Point campus will complement, but not dispense with the need for, the Master Plan at Selby Gardens' Downtown Sarasota campus. While some programs can be offered on both campuses, the reality is that the two sites are nearly 10 miles apart, offer distinctive features and resources, and draw visitors from slightly different areas. By acquiring Historic Spanish Point, 30 acres of green space in Sarasota County has been saved and, in time, we will grow HSP's research and educational opportunities around Florida's native habitat, just as we have done with epiphytes (air plants) at the Downtown Sarasota campus. We are confident the two campuses will work very well together.
How has COVID-19 affected the Compromise Master Plan at the Downtown Sarasota campus?
Selby Gardens remains firmly committed to this effort. $35 million has already been secured restricted solely to the project's implementation. The construction jobs and economic impact created by this undertaking will give the local economy the jump start it needs once the pandemic is behind us.
Our project application to the City of Sarasota has been deemed complete, and we are awaiting the schedule for required public hearings as part of the approval process. The City of Sarasota has currently delayed public hearings due to the pandemic, and we will keep you informed once we are able to proceed.
What is the Compromise Master Plan for the Downtown Sarasota Campus?
In February, after nearly 40 hours of public input at hearings last fall, and, more recently, through our continued efforts to engage with community members, we announced details of our compromise Master Plan for Selby Gardens' Downtown Sarasota Campus.
The project cuts the parking structure's overall height by 40% and no longer seeks a change to the City's comprehensive plan; reduces the size of the planned restaurant from 185 to a maximum of 110 seats; and limits the restaurant's hours of operation to mirror the Gardens' hours to cut down on noise and traffic from non-Gardens patrons.
Parking and Clean energy:
The compromise Master Plan includes a 40% reduction in the overall height of the building hosting a parking facility and retail space. The new structure, which will be called the Living Energy Access Facility (LEAF), will house a four-story parking facility and garden shop with a height of 38.5 feet–comparable to nearby neighborhood buildings. Most importantly, the LEAF will retain essential sustainability features from the initial Master Plan. A 50,000-square-foot solar panel array on its roof will provide one megawatt of power, while a storm water management system will clean water used onsite and then return it to Sarasota Bay. These features will make Selby Gardens the first net-positive botanical garden complex in the world, meaning more energy will be created than consumed.
An on-site rooftop restaurant, originally proposed with 185 seats and open until 10 p.m., will now consist of a maximum of 110 seats, located on the ground floor adjacent to the LEAF building. In addition to minimizing the overall number of patrons, hours of operation would be limited to mirror the Gardens' hours, addressing concerns of evening noise and traffic associated with restaurant patrons. Selby Gardens will own the restaurant with a significant percentage of net revenues reinvested to fund Selby Gardens' mission.
Public Benefit:
While lowering the overall height of the LEAF building will shift elements of the project, the compromise Master Plan retains all the key elements of public benefit and the following remain:
The LEAF building reduces surface parking, which allows for a significant increase in overall garden space; a robust multi-use recreational trail for the community; and Selby Gardens will plan, amenitize, and maintain a portion of the City of Sarasota's Bayfront public park as a gift to the community. Selby Gardens' primary entrance will remain on U.S. 41 coupled with proposed physical and signal timing improvements to the U.S. 41 and Orange Avenue intersection. A partnership among Selby Gardens, CareerEdge Funders Collaborative, and Gulf Coast Builders Exchange will provide training in high-demand trades to City of Sarasota residents with hiring priority for jobs created by the project given to contractors that employ the trainees. A brand new $250,000 gardens-wide sound mitigation system has already been installed to integrate, monitor and regulate sound throughout the Gardens.
Critically important to the world of plant science, the hurricane resilient Plant Research Center, which will house a new library, laboratory, and herbarium will become a reality.
The three-phase compromise Master Plan is projected to take 10 years and cost $92 million – $72 million for construction and $20 million for endowment and operations. Of the $42.5 million needed to implement the first phase, $35 million has been raised (80 percent of the funds needed). The first phase of the master plan includes the Welcome Center, Plant Research Center, LEAF building, the multi-use recreation trail around the perimeter of Selby Gardens' property, increased public access, and the historical restorations of Palm Avenue and the Selby House (already completed in 2019). Later phases of the compromise Master Plan include a new greenhouse complex, a learning pavilion and improved, circuitous walking routes throughout the property as well as improvements to the historic Payne Mansion, home to the Museum of Botany & the Arts.
Thank you for your support of Selby Gardens during this vital time in our history. We will keep everyone updated with important next steps as information becomes available.

Forty names, games, teams and minutiae making news in college football (healthy quarterbacks needed at USC, which lost two of them Saturday in a loss to Utah):
[More Dash: What's wrong with OSU? | 8 hot teams | 6 league races to watch]
For decades, if not longer, the prevailing wisdom in college football was that the first indicator of optimism or pessimism heading into a season was the presence or absence of an experienced quarterback. A returning starter at that most important of positions usually was a harbinger of hope. An absence of one produced anxiety.
That's changed, and all you have to do is look at the current AP Poll to see how dramatic the change has been. Four of the top five teams all are being led by a quarterback who either wasn't on campus last year or wasn't the starter at the beginning of this season. Five others in the top 15 are led by first-year starters and/or transfers.
Maybe it is homogeneity of systems — if you can operate an RPO offense in Greenville, North Carolina, you can operate one in Pullman, Washington, too. Maybe it's the fact that quarterbacks generally are ready to play more quickly than ever, with an applicable base of knowledge learned at a younger age. Maybe it's a transient era at that position, where change of location is now the norm and the adjustment period is smaller.
Whatever the reason, the season of high-impact, plug-and-play QBs is upon us. The Dash breaks it down among top 25 teams, starting with the immediately eligible transfers:
Shea Patterson (21), Michigan. Where he played in 2017: Mississippi. How he got to Ann Arbor: NCAA sanctions applied at Ole Miss, coupled with some industrious lawyering from Thomas Mars, produced an instant eligibility ruling for Patterson at Michigan — and the impact has been profound. The Wolverines have risen from No. 116 in pass efficiency in 2017 to No. 20 this season, and from No. 116 in third-down conversions to No. 16. Patterson also has made a difference in the running game, giving the Michigan offense an added threat it hadn't had from the QB position during Jim Harbaugh's tenure.
Joe Burrow (22), LSU. Where he played in 2017: Ohio State. How he got to Baton Rouge: After losing the competition to start for the Buckeyes, Burrow checked his options and saw immediate playing time at LSU. His numbers aren't much — he hasn't thrown a touchdown pass yet in October, and has thrown three interceptions — but the 7-1 record against a tough schedule is impossible to knock. Burrow has had a knack for timely plays, and like Patterson has contributed some big runs — see his 66 rushing yards and two touchdowns in the thumping of Georgia. This LSU team is all about defense and running the ball, with the quarterback chipping in some plays when he needs to. Burrow has filled that role capably.
Gardner Minshew (23), Washington State. Where he played in 2017: East Carolina. How he got to Pullman: When Minshew decided to leave ECU, he originally committed to Alabama — not because he saw himself winning the starting job, but because he wants to be a coach after his playing days. But Minshew changed his mind last March, opting to maximize his playing chances before moving on to coaching. Washington State offered immediate playing time, and this has been a remarkably successful marriage. Minshew is the next super-productive guy on the Mike Leach assembly line, leading the nation in passing yards per game (392.1) and leading the Cougars to a 6-1 record and No. 14 ranking.
Terry Wilson (24), Kentucky. Where he played in 2017: Garden City (Kansas) Community College. Before that he spent a year at Oregon. How he got to Lexington: When four-star quarterback Jarren Williams de-committed from Kentucky for Miami last November, the Wildcats ramped up their efforts to land Wilson and beat out Florida and Nebraska for his services. He's far from a polished passer — 13th in the 14-team SEC in pass efficiency — but his running ability has taken some of the burden off bell-cow back Benny Snell Jr. Wilson's best game also happened to be Kentucky's biggest win: 256 yards total offense and three touchdowns in a win at Florida. The Wildcats' 6-1 record is their best through seven games since 2007.
Blake Barnett (25), South Florida. Where he played in 2017: Arizona State. Before that Barnett was at Alabama. How he got to Tampa: Barnett couldn't beat out Manny Wilkins at ASU under two different coaches — first Todd Graham in 2017, then Herm Edwards in 2018 spring practice. That sent him in search of a transfer, and he committed to USF in May. After throwing 34 passes in his college career prior to this season, he's settled in under Charlie Strong. Aside from a bad game at Tulsa, he's been a solid starter for the undefeated Bulls.
The former understudies:
Tua Tagovailoa (26), Alabama. Where he spent 2017: On the bench behind Jalen Hurts, until the most famous backup QB comeback performance ever in the College Football Playoff championship game. Prior to that game, he'd thrown 53 college passes. What Tua started in the second half against Georgia, he has perpetuated and elevated against all comers this year. He remains on pace to break Baker Mayfield's NCAA records for single-season pass efficiency and yards per attempt, and his touchdown-to-interception ratio (currently 25-0) grows more absurd by the week. The biggest test yet comes Saturday, when Tua takes on the No. 6 pass efficiency defense in the country in LSU.
Ian Book (27), Notre Dame. Where he spent 2017: Backing up Brandon Wimbush, until getting the start in the Citrus Bowl upset of LSU. Even after that win, Book went back to the bench behind Wimbush to begin this 2018 season. After three games of sputtering offense, Kelly reinserted Book and the Fighting Irish offense has been transformed. The ND pass efficiency rating in three Wimbush starts: 119.2. The ND pass efficiency rating in four Book starts: 163.7. Book also has contributed 112 rushing yards and three TDs on the ground for the undefeated Irish.
Kyler Murray (28), Oklahoma. Where he spent 2017: Backing up Baker Mayfield. Murray began his college career at Texas A&M in 2015 before transferring to Oklahoma. Murray signed a multimillion-dollar baseball contract with the Oakland A's during the offseason, but stuck with his decision to play for the Sooners this fall — and he's been a home run. He has the best numbers of any quarterback not named Tagovailoa, with a 224.9 efficiency rating and 30 total touchdowns running and passing. If he maintains his current rate of production, Murray will join Tua in New York for the Heisman Trophy ceremony in December.
Dwayne Haskins (29), Ohio State. Where he spent 2017: Backing up J.T. Barrett. Haskins was good when he played, but other than providing a spark at Michigan he was primarily a spectator while four-year starter Barrett ran the show. Then he stepped up in the offseason to beat out Burrow, and what has followed is unprecedented Ohio State production. Haskins easily is on pace to set new school records for single-season passing yardage, completions, attempts and touchdown passes. The problem lately has been an over-reliance on Haskins' arm, as the Buckeyes' running game has bogged down to an alarming degree. Haskins threw 73 passes at Purdue on Saturday, shattering the single-game school record for attempts by 21.
The freshman:
Trevor Lawrence (30), Clemson. Where he spent 2017: Starring at Cartersville High School in Georgia. Lawrence enrolled early at Clemson and went through spring practice, but remained the backup to incumbent starter Kelly Bryant through the first four games of the season. Lawrence played enough in relief, and showed enough promise, that coach Dabo Swinney made the inevitable move to promote him over Bryant before the Tigers played Syracuse on Sept. 29. Lawerence was injured in the first half of that game, but has come back and performed very well in subsequent wipeouts of Wake Forest and North Carolina State. He threw for 308 yards against the previously undefeated Wolfpack on Saturday, most for a Clemson QB since Deshaun Watson's epic performance to beat Alabama in the 2016 championship game.

It's kinda neat being a mom. There's this day called Mother's Day that I get to be apart of in the Mom Club. Last weekend was the end of one of the most hectic weeks ever. So glad I got to end such a crazy time with my family! We went to Wichita to celebrate our friend Rachel and cousin John's wedding at a place called Bartlett Arboretum. It was fantastically up my alley with trees, flowers, rivers, gazebos, walking paths, hideaway sitting areas, and beautiful weather. It was the ideal place for a wedding. I should have been married there. Shewt.
Anyway, we came home, aired up Evie's swimming pool and went for a first time swimming dip. Um. Can't wait for summer. It's going to be the bomb being home with Evie!
On Sunday, the day of mothers, we had my mommy (and daddy) over for a Mother's Day dinner. I felt like it was my birthday party… I got about as many gifts! Our daycare girl, Jamie, facilitated Evie as she created my Mother's Day gift, a cute little canvas of her handprints with a heart melting little saying on it. So sweet! Evie also gave me a baby bike helmet, and Logan bought a bicycle trailer for the Trek! This, my friends, makes me jump up and down! Now our baby can go on bike rides with us in her own personal little bike chariot, complete with a neon orange flag. Dude.
Life is good!

How do you program an embedded system? Say, the code that runs on the control processor on a big SoC? What programming language should you use?
I have never really programmed an embedded system, unless you count writing a couple of experimental programs for smartphones, but what a fair bit of embedded system programming is today was just system programming twenty years ago. I have written device drivers for disk drives. I have written the lower levels of a full networking stack. I have written full operating systems for small computers. When I was doing graduate work at university, the microprocessor had barely been invented (okay, the Intel 4004 was a thing, but take one look at its architecture and you will see it is closer to programming an FPGA than a processor). The PC, IBM or otherwise, didn't exist. The Apple II came along somewhere around then. Anyway, all that programming was in assembly code for the various computers. When you only have 64KB of memory on the entire machine, everything has to be very tight. But today, you have more memory and you will likely be using a programming language. So what are the most popular choices today in 2019?
As it happens, just this week, IEEE Spectrum did a survey and the table below is the top 10 most popular programming languages. Here is the whole article. The methodology is a little weird since some of the "languages" aren't really programming languages but we'll go with their ranking. After all, if a lot of people sit in front of computers and write HTML, and other people come to the websites and "run" the HTML, it seems somewhat arbitrary to decide that is not "real" programming.
I think it is instructive to look at these languages and see what type of language they are and where the support comes from. First, here's the list:
First-choice Python is a language created by Guido van Rossum and first released in 1991. Two things I note about the language. First, it uses indentation to indicate control-structure rather than having explicit words or brackets, unlike many of the other languages on this list, which are what a friend of mine calls "curly bracket languages". Second, it is dynamically typed and almost anything that you can write that looks like it should make sense will do what you expect, although perhaps not very efficiently. The language is interpreted (sometimes meaning it is described as a scripting language). Despite books about the language, and even its logo, being a snake, the language was actually named after Monty Python (which, by the way, was first broadcast 50 years ago next month on October 5, 1969). Many university computer science courses use Python, so it is often the language new graduates are most familiar with. Python's popularity is also partially driven by its being quasi-standard in machine learning (and various other domains), and so there are rich libraries available. In particular, TensorFlow is written in Python, and although Caffe is written in C++, its interface is provided in Python.
Java is a language invented at Sun Microsystems (before they became part of Oracle) under the lead of James Gosling. It was intended to be widely portable ("write once, run anywhere") across a wide range of machines from what we would now call IoT devices up to mainframes. It is the main language used for writing apps for Android smartphones, which represent about 85% of all smartphones. It was first released in 1995. The language is compiled into machine-independent bytecodes that can then be interpreted. It is typically JITted, which stands for "just in time", meaning that the compiler incrementally compiles and optimizes the code the first time it is run, for whatever machine it is running on, so there is a sense in which the program is ported on the fly this way.
C (just the letter, pronounced "see") is a language created by Denis Ritchie at Bell Labs in about 1972 to create utilities (including the C compiler itself) for the Unix operating system. Subsequently, the Unix operating system was re-written almost entirely in C. C is a compiled language, and is regarded as very close to the actual underlying hardware so that there are few performance surprises. There are many implementations of the C compiler, the most well-known being the open-source implementations gcc and LLVM. But there are specialized proprietary compilers, too, such as Green Hills Software (which are certified for various domains).
C++ (pronounced see-plus-plus) was a derivative of C created by Bjarne Stroustrup to add Simula-style classes to C, and thus modernize the language. It's original compiler just output C that was then run through the normal compiler, but now a wide range of direct C++ compilers are avalable. The object-oriented structure makes it harder to write incorrect code since it is mostly strongly typed. But as Bjarne said at a seminar we had him run at VLSI Technology, "it makes it harder to shoot yourself in the foot, but when you do, it blows your whole leg off."
R (just a letter) is not really a language for writing general-purpose programs in. It is a language for statistical computing and data mining. Since this is the era of "big data" it has made its way onto this list in fifth place. The main implementation is an open-source version written mainly in C (and parts in R itself). R was first released in 1995, although it was originally an implementation of the S language developed at Bell Labs in the mid-1970s.
C# (pronounced see-sharp like the musical note) was created by Microsoft around 2000 as the language to use in its .NET initiative. It has since become an international standard. It was widely seen at the time as Microsoft's response to Sun's Java, so they could have similar capabilities but without depending on another company.
MATLAB is the language used within MATLAB (the word has more than one meaning), the main product of MathWorks (they used to be "The MathWorks" but they lost the "The"). The implementations and language are proprietary to MathWorks, although there have been various open-source attempts to clone it. MathWorks was founded in 1983, although the development of the language had started earlier in academia. MATLAB is the standard environment for developing digital signal processing and other similar algorithms. Since it can output Verilog or C++, there is a path to implementation through high-level synthesis with Stratus technology, or regular synthesis through Genus technology.
Swift was created by Apple as a successor to Objective-C that was developed by Next and acquired by Apple. It was introduced in 2014, where it was described as "objective-C without the C". There are implementations for MacOS, iOS, and Linux, but it remains proprietary to Apple.
Go was created at Google by Robert Griesemer, Rob Pike, and Ken Thompson. Yes, the Ken Thompson of Unix fame, whom I wrote about in my post Why You Shouldn't Trust Ken Thompson. It was a sort of re-work of C with modern language concepts such as concurrency and memory safety. It was developed in 2007 in the era of big data centers, multicore, and massive scale, where existing languages were a liability. It was open source and now has many contributors other than Google, and widely used elsewhere (my friend who works at Lyft programs mostly in Go).
I'm a computer scientist by background, although I rarely write code any more. I've written Python, Java, C, C++, and a little bit of JavaScript, and dabbled with Swift. Most of my programming experience has been in older languages not on the list (and barely existing anymore). BCPL at Cambridge, a fore-runner of C. IMP at Edinburgh, a locally created language. Then Mainsail at VLSI/Compass, which is Machine-Independent Stanford Artificial Intelligence Language (or maybe Laboratory depending on who you ask), so locally created at Stanford. Universities developed their own languages quite regularly. But if you look at the above list you'll see that so do big companies do today: C# at Microsoft, Go at Google, Swift at Apple, Java at Sun. And, if you go back far enough, C and C++ at Bell Labs, and JavaScript at Netscape. It is over-generalizing, but mostly people/companies create languages for their own use because, for technical (or sometimes business) reasons, the existing languages are not adequate. They tend to get standardized later once they are de facto standards and just a few warts need rubbing off.
For the low levels of an embedded system (device drivers, protocol stacks), you probably would not use the interpreted languages here, which leaves you with C, C++ (and maybe Go and Swift). But higher levels in an embedded system the interpreted languages are great, which is why Java is in the Android SDK.
Most of these languages are either fully open source, or the language is standardized and there are open-source implementations, although for several of the languages there are companies that will provide proprietary implementations with various advantages. In the list above of the top 10 languages, only MathWorks has a business making money by selling the language and its environment directly. But even so, Wikipedia says disapprovingly:
MATLAB is a proprietary product of MathWorks, so users are subject to vendor lock-in.
MATLAB is a proprietary product of MathWorks, so users are subject to vendor lock-in.
One language not on the list that is a good choice for embedded applications is Rust. This has been Stack Overflow's "most loved" language in every year since 2016 (including this year 2019). It was developed by Mozilla Corporation, who are the developers of the Firefox browser among other products.
Rust is somewhat like C++, so easy to learn if you already know C++ or even just C (it is a curly-bracket language). Its big advantage over C++ and C is that is its focus on safety, especially in a concurrent environment. It has no null pointers, and it is impossible to end up with anything like a pointer to memory that has been freed already (known as a dangling pointer). It is not garbage-collected (as are C#, Go, Java) but instead has a protocol for how ownership of objects is handled, which is way beyond the scope of this post (which is too long already). This is all checked at compile-time, which is why Rust is a good choice for embedded systems where safety is often a critical attribute.
You will find plenty of people predicting that Rust will surpass C++ and C over time...but the death of C++ and, especially, C is confidently predicted all the time.
Talking of languages, did you know today is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. So I think today you shouldn't consider programming your project in R, you should program in Aaarrrrr.

Thursday Reads: Bitter White Men, the Petraeus Affair, and GOP CluelessnessPosted: November 15, 2012 Filed under: 2012 presidential campaign, Barack Obama, Discrimination against women, Monsanto, morning reads, U.S. Economy, U.S. Military, U.S. Politics | Tags: Benghazi attacks, David Petraeus, Diane Feinstein, Eric Cantor, Frederick W. Humphries III, GOP conspiracy theories, Jill Kelley, John Derbyshire, Kevin MacDonald, meritocracy, military and women, mind control, Noam Scheiber, Paula Broadwell, Rosa Brooks, White nationalist groups, White supremacists 55 Comments
Good Morning!!
Following on Dakinikat's post about the bitter old white men who can't handle four more years with a black president, I recommend you read a scary article by J.M. Berger at Foreign Policy on "Why white nationalists are thrilled with Obama's victory." Several white supremacist leaders are quoted in the piece; I'll just give you a couple of examples.
Kevin MacDonald, a professor of psychology whose anti-Semitic writings make him a favorite of Neo-Nazis, penned a pro-secession piece for a prominent white identity site, The Occidental Observer, that might finally get him fired from California State University, where he inexplicably still works.
White males constituted only 34% of the electorate and this will continue to decline. It's no accident that stocks of gun companies soared after the election, even though the stock market as a whole took a dive. What we have here is a situation in which around 70% of traditional American White men (correcting for the overly inclusive White' category used by the media) are now pretty much officially disenfranchised in a country where they see themselves as the founding population. That's a lot of angry White men….
It may take a while for this 70% to wake up to the reality that they are politically impotent. But it will happen. Separatist movements in the many states that are deeply red are certainly a possibility. … Is there any other realistic alternative? Apart from futile violence against the Leviathan, do White men really have any other choice?
The concept of a wake-up call articulated by MacDonald was widely echoed in posts on white nationalist blogs and forums. Some thought it would come sooner, others thought it might come later, but many agreed the writing was on the wall.
Then there's John Derbyshire, who was fired from National Review earlier this year.
When you look at the overall picture, however, we are still fighting the Civil War. That is to say, the contest was mainly between two huge groups of white people who don't much like each other, with the colored folk playing a marginal role. That's how it was in the War Between the States, and that's how it still is today.
He went on to suggest whites will ultimately have no choice but to unite as a race-based voting bloc. The current problem, Derbyshire explained, was that "Republicans are white, sure enough, but whites are not Republican."
Berger concludes that when these groups finally realize that history and demographics are leaving them behind, they will have no choice but to turn to violence. I just hope the Secret Service and FBI are aware of and ready to deal with this threat from the right.
Disgraced General David Petraeus will testify before Congress on Benghazi today "behind closed doors," according to the Washington Post.
He is likely to be asked — both by reporters on his way in and by lawmakers — about any possible intelligence breaches involving his biographer, Paula Broadwell. Law enforcement officials said Broadwell is the woman with whom the retired general has acknowledged having an affair….
Senate Intelligence Committee Chairwoman Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) told reporters Wednesday that Petraeus has agreed to testify. After his sudden resignation, acting CIA Director Michael Morell had been tapped to appear in Petreaus's place.
"Gen. Petraeus is willing to come before the committee and the details will be worked out," Feinstein said.
Noam Scheiber has an interesting and thoughtful piece about the relationship between Paula Broadstone and David Petraeus: Paula Broadwell, a Hanger-On in King Petraeus's Court. According to Scheiber, the people around Petraeus could not understand how Broadwell managed to get so close to this supposedly "intellectual" general.
Petraeus wasn't just the Army's most famous general. He was the military's best-known and most accomplished intellectual. If he wanted an official biography, he could have had his pick of dozens of scholars and writers. "My gosh, if you are going to have someone interview everyone who has ever touched you in your life, choose someone who has written a biography or at least a history book," Peter Mansoor, one of the general's top aides, told The Washington Post.
Scheiber describes Petraeus as the "ultimate meritocrat–with his Ph.D. from Princeton and his reputation as a "brainiac."
[T]he term "meritocracy"—a bit like its cousin, "the best and the brightest"—wasn't actually intended to be complimentary. It entered the lexicon through a book, "The Rise of the Meritocracy," by the British social thinker Michael Young, who imagined a dystopian world in which a small group of highly educated elites controls society. The meritocrats persuade themselves that, unlike the ruling classes that came before them, they are uniquely deserving of power because they earned it rather than inherited it. (And they have the SAT scores to prove it, by God!) And yet, over time, they somehow manage to become just as inbred, self-serving, and corrupt.
Over time, Petraeus went through that same transformation, surrounding himself with
…growing hoards of groupies who descended on his command posts, including conservative think-tankers from Washington, for whom he arranged office space and aircraft….Paula Broadwell, it turns out, was the kind of hanger-on whose arrival heralds a meritocracy in decline. Outwardly, she checked all the right sociological boxes: High school valedictorian, all-state basketball player, West Point alum, Harvard master's degree. But, up close, she could be remarkably shallow. "There was no room for a conversation of shortcomings of the Petraeus theology. She wasn't a reporter. She struck me as an acolyte," a wonk who met her told the Post. "I was underwhelmed….
What Broadwell excelled at instead was leveraging credentials to impress fellow achievers. She didn't stop at her own. When my friend met her, she was fond of pointing out that her husband was no mere radiologist but a special breed known as an "interventional radiologist." (She would draw out the word "interventional" for emphasis.) Later, she would boast about hanging out with the glitterati on the panel-discussion circuit—"Heading 2 @AspenInstitute 4 the Security Forum tomorrow! Panel (media & terrorism) followed by a 1v1 run with Lance Armstrong," she recently tweeted, according to the Times. She was a kind of successful-person trophy collector who made no apologies for her ambitions. (My friend remembers the Facebook appeal in which she asked, "Can anyone introduce me to Lance Armstrong?")
It's a fascinating article, and an antidote to all the trashy coverage of the Petraeus-Broadwell scandal in much of the corporate media.
Rosa Brooks has written another serious article on the Petraeus affair at Foreign Policy: Sex and the Modern Soldier. Brooks asks:
Does the U.S. military have an adultery problem? A woman problem? A generic, all-purpose craziness, sleaze, and corruption problem? A public-image problem?
Answering these questions in order, I can offer a definitive "sort of," "kind of, "maybe," and "very possibly."
The article is too long and detailed to sum up quickly, but here's an excerpt from the section on the military's "woman problem."
The military remains plagued by allegations of sexual harassment and assault, and a number of studies by the Defense Department and the Department of Veterans Affairs have concluded that women in the military face higher rates of sexual assault than do civilian women. Here again, no big surprise: The military remains an overwhelmingly male — and overwhelmingly macho — institution. Women are outnumbered and often rendered nearly invisible in a culture in which nearly all senior officers are male.
This extends to the home front, as well. In certain ways, the informal culture of military officers resembles the 1950s more than the 21st century. Military life isn't just hard on marriage — it's also hard on the careers of the (mostly female) civilian spouses of military personnel. Rising up the career ladder isn't easy when you move from one military base to another every few years. One military friend of mine recalls a general telling junior officers — in a recent lecture at an official Army command training event — that they should actively discourage their wives from pursuing careers, because career women would be less supportive and flexible military wives. And though official publications now speak of officers' "spouses" rather than "wives," the military still produces etiquette guides for spouses, with a rather gendered focus on appropriate forms of address at social functions and the proper pouring of tea and coffee.
Yuck. Read all about it at the link.
Last link on the Petraeus clusterfu&ck: The NYT has learned the name of the mystery FBI agent who sent shirtless photos to Jill Kelley and disrupted the investigation by contacting Rep. Eric Cantor.
The F.B.I. agent who spurred the investigation that led to the resignation of David H. Petraeus as C.I.A. director is a "hard-charging" veteran who helped investigate the foiled millennium terrorist plot in 1999, colleagues said on Wednesday.
The agent, Frederick W. Humphries II, 47, is also described by former colleagues as relentless in his pursuit of what he sees as wrongdoing, which appears to describe his role in the F.B.I. investigation involving Mr. Petraeus. Suspecting that the case involved serious security issues and was being stalled, possibly for political reasons — a suspicion his superiors say was unjustified — he took his concerns to Congressional Republicans.
"Fred is a passionate kind of guy," one former colleague said. "He's kind of an obsessive type. If he locked his teeth onto something, he'd be a bulldog."
Humphries says that the shirtless photos were sent to Jill Kelley long before the Petraeus investigation and were simply a "joke."
I know everyone has probably heard already about how Mitt Romney spoke to donors yesterday on a conference call and insulted women, African Americans, Latinos, and young people by claiming that these groups voted to reelect Barack Obama because he <a showered them with "gifts" during his first term. But I can't help including it, because it's so typical of the cluelessness that Romney and his supporters showed throughout his campaign. Here's how the NYT Caucus Blog reported on the call:
In a conference call with fund-raisers and donors to his campaign, Mr. Romney said Wednesday afternoon that the president had followed the "old playbook" of using targeted initiatives to woo specific interest groups — "especially the African-American community, the Hispanic community and young people."
"In each case, they were very generous in what they gave to those groups," Mr. Romney said, contrasting Mr. Obama's strategy to his own of "talking about big issues for the whole country: military strategy, foreign policy, a strong economy, creating jobs and so forth." ….
"With regards to the young people, for instance, a forgiveness of college loan interest was a big gift," Mr. Romney said. "Free contraceptives were very big with young, college-aged women. And then, finally, Obamacare also made a difference for them, because as you know, anybody now 26 years of age and younger was now going to be part of their parents' plan, and that was a big gift to young people. They turned out in large numbers, a larger share in this election even than in 2008."
The president's health care plan, he said, was also a useful tool in mobilizing black and Hispanic voters. Though Mr. Romney won the white vote with 59 percent, according to exit polls, minorities coalesced around the president in overwhelming numbers: 93 percent of blacks and 71 percent of Hispanics.
"You can imagine for somebody making $25,000 or $30,000 or $35,000 a year, being told you're now going to get free health care, particularly if you don't have it, getting free health care worth, what, $10,000 per family, in perpetuity — I mean, this is huge," Mr. Romney said. "Likewise with Hispanic voters, free health care was a big plus. But in addition with regards to Hispanic voters, the amnesty for children of illegals, the so-called Dream Act kids, was a huge plus for that voting group."
Breathtaking, isn't it? This man really needs to go away and never be heard from again. I certainly hope Obama won't consult him on anything, including what the weather is like outside his window. Goodbye, Mitt. Please don't ever come back.
Finally, this one is for JJ. Check out this article at Mother Jones: Top Georgia GOP Lawmakers Host Briefing on Secret Obama Mind-Control Plot.
President Obama is using a Cold War-era mind-control technique known as "Delphi" to coerce Americans into accepting his plan for a United Nations-run communist dictatorship in which suburbanites will be forcibly relocated to cities. That's according to a four-hour briefing delivered to Republican state senators at the Georgia state Capitol last month.
On October 11, at a closed-door meeting of the Republican caucus convened by the body's majority leader, Chip Rogers, a tea party activist told Republican lawmakers that Obama was mounting this most diabolical conspiracy. The event—captured on tape by a member of the Athens-based watchdog Better Georgia (who was removed from the room after 52 minutes)—had been billed as an information session on Agenda 21, a nonbinding UN agreement that commits member nations to promote sustainable development. In the eyes of conservative activists, Agenda 21 is a nefarious plot that includes forcibly relocating non-urban-dwellers and prescribing mandatory contraception as a means of curbing population growth. The invitation to the Georgia state Senate event noted the presentation would explain: "How pleasant sounding names are fostering a Socialist plan to change the way we live, eat, learn, and communicate to 'save the earth.'"
There's much much more insanity at the link.

Late Night: A Spooky TalePosted: November 29, 2010 Filed under: Civil Rights, just because, Surreality | Tags: CIA, electrodes in brains, human robots, Manchurian Candidate, mind control, MK ULTRA, Unibomber 56 Comments
Those of us who remember the revelations of the Church Committee in the 1970s are at least somewhat familiar with the CIA's Project MK ULTRA, a ghastly program that sponsored research on human subjects carried out by respected professors at prestigious universities.
Some 2 years ago, the Senate Health Subcommittee heard chilling testimony about the human experimentation activities of the Central Intelligence Agency. The Deputy Director of the CIA revealed that over 30 universities and institutions were involved in an "extensive testing and experimentation" program which included covert drug tests on unwitting citizens "at all social levels, high and low, native Americans and foreign." Several of these tests involved the administration of LSD to "unwitting subjects in social situations."
One example is the CIA-sponsored work of famed personality psychologist Henry Murray at Harvard. Murray used Harvard students to carry out "research" in which he attempted to break down an individual's defenses:
Henry Murray's experiment was intended to measure how people react under stress. Murray subjected his unwitting students, including Kaczynski, to intensive interrogation — what Murray himself called "vehement, sweeping, and personally abusive" attacks, assaulting his subjects' egos and most-cherished ideals and beliefs.
MK ULTRA researchers also famously dosed numerous people with LSD to see how they would react. Murray himself used LSD–he and Timothy Leary were on the Harvard psychology department faculty at the same time–and Murray may have administered the drug to his student subjects, one of whom was named Ted Kaczynski. That's right, the man who later became the Unibomber.
Anyone who remembers this history could not be surprised by the collaboration of psychologists with the CIA in developing techniques of
torture "enhanced interrogation" during the Bush years.
And now, all these years later, according to Raw Story,
A group of military veterans are suing to get the CIA to come clean about allegedly implanting remote control devices in their brains.
A 2009 lawsuit (.pdf) claimed that the CIA intended to design and test septal electrodes that would enable them to control human behavior. The lawsuit said that because the government never disclosed the risks, the subjects were not able to give informed consent.
Bruce Price, one plaintiff in the lawsuit, believes that MRI scans confirm that the CIA placed a device in his brain in 1966.
Recently, US Magistrate Judge James Larson ordered the CIA to:
produce records and testimony regarding the experiments conducted on thousands of soldiers from 1950 through 1975.
Dakinikat may be interested to know that much of this "research" was carried out at Tulane University.
According to the attorney for the Veterans, Gordon P. Erspamer:
papers filed in the case describe "electrical devices implanted in brain tissue with electrodes in various regions, including the hippocampus, the hypothalamus, the frontal lobe (via the septum), the cortex and various other places."
Tulane claims they can't produce any documents because they were lost during Hurricane Katrina.
This all sounds nuts, I know. But Jeff Stein, who writes the "Spy Talk" column at the Washington Post writes:
It's not just science fiction — or the imaginings of the mentally ill.
In 1961, a top CIA scientist reported in an internal memo that "the feasibility of remote control of activities in several species of animals has been demonstrated…Special investigations and evaluations will be conducted toward the application of selected elements of these techniques to man," according to "The CIA and the Search for the Manchurian Candidate," a 1979 book by former State Department intelligence officer John Marks.
"[T]his cold-blooded project," Marks wrote, "was designed … for the delivery of chemical and biological agents or for 'executive action-type operations,' according to a document. 'Executive action' was the CIA's euphemism for assassination."
The CIA pursued such experiments because it was convinced the Soviets were doing the same.
Spooky, huh?

Look for a good wine by comparing ratings. Wines that have even the most modest of followings should be rated. You can easily find wines by rating online and usually in liquor stores as well. The higher the rating the better the wine should be in both quality and taste.
If you are really passionate about wine, you should consider visiting a vineyard. You will learn a lot about how wine is made, what makes a flavor unique and even get a chance to witness the production of your favorite wine if you visit a vineyard during the right season.
Wine has many beneficial properties for your health. Enjoy a small glass of wine each night to enjoy the benefits. Most doctors recommend opting for a red wine to get the most benefits. When pouring your wine after dinner, allow the wine time to breathe before enjoying your glass of wine.
A lot of wines have foreign names. It is best to familiarize yourself with the pronunciation of these names before you talk with experts about your wine tasting experiences. A wine expert will quickly label you as a novice if you are not familiar with the correct pronunciation of certain names.
When looking for a great bottle of wine, do not instantly go for the most expensive wines in the store. While the cost of a bottle is one indicator of the flavor and quality, there are also many others. Take the time to try a few inexpensive brands, and they just might surprise you!
If you plan to learn about and collect wines, invest in proper storage. Wine is best when kept in a cooler, more humid environment. Many people prefer to build out a basement or cellar for storing wine. However, if your needs are smaller, there are many options for in-home storage on the market.
charcuterie keep the white wine in the fridge, the more the coldness will affect both its smell and taste. Therefore, it is best to only chill wine for several hours prior to serving. This will maximize the taste and enjoyment that you will receive from each bottle you drink.
You should know that old bottles are often worthless. You could try selling it to another wine connoisseur, but most buyers look for large quantities. Keep in mind that serious buyers will want to know everything about the provenance of the wine you want to sell, which is not always feasible if you found a bottle in your basement.
Do not be a wine snob when it comes to new wines. You may turn up your nose to white wine when it is offered to you, only because you had one or two bad glasses the first time around. Not all wines are created equal. charcuterie will find wines to suit your taste throughout the wine rainbow.
If you have a cellar or even just a rack where you can store wine, do not fill the space completely with the wines that you like right now. Your tastes are bound to change over time. You don't want to be stuck with many cases of a brand you no longer drink.
When cooking with wine, let your recipe help guide your choice. If you are simply using wine to de-glaze a pan, a splash of just about anything will do. However, if wine is a main ingredient, such as in Coq au Vin, you may want to splurge a little to do the dish justice.
Keep a journal just for wine. The easiest way to keep track of the wines that you enjoy and the ones that you do not like is to keep a list of them. You can also include the foods that you drank them with so that you can repeat the experience if you like.
Most celebrations are cause for opening a great bottle of wine, but which one? Hopefully this article has taught you the difference between wines and which ones are more appropriate for different meals. Remember these tips next time you go to pick up a bottle or two and be sure to enjoy.

PCOD stands for (Polycystic ovarian disease) or PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome). PCOD is a reproductive endocrine gland disorder. It affects around 5% of women every year.In PCOS, there is an excessive amount of androgen hormone secretion by the ovaries. Androgen is a male hormone such as testosterone. PCOS is the main cause of female infertility, menstrual irregularity, and hirsute (excessive hair growth).PCOD is not a disease, it is only a condition where your hormones get imbalanced.
PCOD Leads to Weight Gain
Weight gain & Obesity are the prominent effects of PCOD. It increases the body weight from tummy, thighs and hips.
PCOD and Body Hair Growth
PCOD/PCOS leads to abnormal hair growth in different parts of the body in women. Generally the hairs can be seen on cheeks.
Irregular Cycle
PCOD also leads to irregular cycle periods in women. It can also be seen among women of young age.
Thyroid Abnormality
PCOD/PCOD also disturbs the thyroid hormones level in the body which causes a lot of problems including weight gain.

Its most dangerous side effect is prevention of ovulation which leads to infertility. Basically the eggs are released by the ovaries which are fertilised by the male"sperm. This is known as ovulation. This prevention of ovulation disturbs the secretion of hormones and imbalances them in the body.
Some hormones are produced in small amount while some other like the androgen male hormone is released in large amount. The increased male hormone disturbs disturbs the menstrual cycle and women with PCOD/PCOS complain of fewer periods.
Even if women with PCOD/PCOS conceive there is a higher chance of miscarriage, pregnancy period diabetes (gestational diabetes), hypertension and premature delivery. PCOD/PCOS can be genetic also. A women whose mother or sisters have been diagnosed with PCOD/PCOS have more risk of developing this problem.

Et Tu Brute Summer Draftdeleted
Et Tu Brute Summer Draft OrderI'm uploading the Draft Video now. Once Raph has the Google Sheet finished up, we can go ahead and start the draft.
Please DM me in discord. I messaged you there. Need some info to put you in a draft league, else we get stuck waiting a day plus for someone to randomly show up & pick.
Raph said he's doing the ROM, so any classic or modern team(s) work for team selection
FPB goes w/ Quebec
ETB Team Selection
Brutus posted a topic in General DiscussionPost your team here. FOR THOSE NEW to drafts, we reset ALL home/away advantages. Team selection is basically just for uniforms/logos. You will draft a custom roster from the NHL94 player pool. IF no one wants the Blackhawks, I'll take them. BUT, I am happy to switch off. #1 Brutus - Chicago #2 FPB - Quebec #3 AJ - Allstar West #4 Kuefner - NY Islanders #5 Leif - Minnesota NORTH Stars #6 Jer - Toronto #7 Raph - Anaheim #8 Tex - Dallas Stars #9 MikeG - Hartford Whalers #10 Chaos - Calgary #11 J&J - Tampa #12 Atomic - Hamilton #13 Aqua - LA Kings #14 Ice - Toronto St Pats #15 Dickon - Vegas Knights #16 Schmidt - California Seals #17 GoCanes21 - Carolina Hurricanes #18 Zep - San Jose
Et Tu Brute Summer Version
Brutus replied to Brutus's topic in General DiscussionOK, I have mentioned 2 team draft, but we are up to 18 teams (16 confirmed), so we will only be drafting ONE team each. HOWEVER, we will be doing a FULL roster draft, all 12 forwards, 6 defenders and 2 goalies. This will enable Line Changes ON for Exi's, and a possible MID-SEASON Tourney I am thinking of doing using Line Changes in the rules. ALSO, this will setup A level coaches to use their "B" squad vs B coaches A teams, and even out the playing field during the regular season.

Great tourney Trojan. I caught some of it here & there while stuck at work via twitch. Definitely had a real smooth flow/feel to it all while i was watching and reading some comments on Discord. Raph picking up on EA's flaw was a cool thing, like listening to Romo breakdown the Pats vs Chiefs in the AFC Championship game. Your kid wasn't afraid of the mic for sure! Grade it with the curve for being 11, and he was an A+. However, your commentary didn't need a curve. Solid A+. Thanks for streaming it all.
Brutus is coming to town!
Brutus replied to Brutus's topic in General DiscussionDay drinking is SERIOUSLY underrated.
Brutus is coming to town!
Brutus posted a topic in General DiscussionChristmas is over, but all of you have that Santa song ringing in your heads still I'm sure. So here's something else to torture you with. You better watch out Bet your butt you will cry Don't bother to pout Cause I'm not a nice guy Brutus & Mogs are coming to town. I've made my hit list I've checked it twice I'm getting some naughty time on the ice Brutus & Mogs are coming to town I know why you are hiding Play your games byatches!!!! I know if you have zero games played So play your games byatches!!! Let's GA! I'll be around LATE these next few nights but will try to get in some earlier games soon for the east guys old birds too.
Most Simultaneous PIMS (for one side)
Brutus replied to aqualizard's topic in Game & Strategy DiscussionI could have sworn I saw 3 penalties in a game recently where I got 1 penalty, but my opponent also got two at the same time. I think there were already 2 guys in the box, so it ended up with 4 in the box for him, and 1 for me, so it was 4 on 3 for 1 min (it was Et Tu Brute ROM). I could be wrong though. Drinking was involved Anyone else ever have multiple penalties from both teams?
2018 NHL'94 Bud of the Year (your turn to vote)
Brutus replied to halifax's topic in NHL'94 CommunityI would always vote for myself, because that's just me Unless Halifax was on the ballot, then I'd have a real tough choice. The fact he's not on the ballot, forces me to abstain from the above selection. Chaos has tried to disappear a few times, but it's a little unknown detail that Brute here has a tracker on him, so his short lived absents have always been just that, notification his life is about to be short lived if his absence continues.
Defending Those Cheesy Crease Cuts
Brutus replied to aqualizard's topic in Game & Strategy DiscussionI'm heavy on the crease cuts and if you over chase me, hitting Hull type center for a one-timer blast, ESPECIALLY if you take the goalie, cause then you can't defend the pass while on goalie. I rarely see anyone playing this game like "real hockey", so I don't consider them cheese cuts. I definitely see so MANY forms of "cheese" that I no longer consider any goal cheesy. There are 3 ways that make crease cuts easier to get going than others, so telling you how to do them easier should help try to prevent them, if you see the logic there. #1 SPEED. Fast players move around and can get behind your net and just loose on a defense, and a speedster on the loose is a formula for a lot of crease cuts. Bure & Mogs are my favorite guys to get crease cuts with. Usually, speedsters are also light, so preventing them from getting the puck with space is vital to limited them, and fat defenders that are good at checking them w/ C/b, are too slow to catch them once they are loose. Keeping the puck away from them in open space is also effective in stopping many other goals speedy players can score. #2 Strong puck skilled wingers. Think Jagr/Fedorov/Ronning, depending on the style of the rom (WBF/Classic) and the weights of the defenders when planning how to stop them. These 5+ stick handling guys are a b***h to stop as they start to make their cut, absorb your hits and keep going, as your goalie flops. NOT trying to B check a guy who can just take that hit is important. KNOWING if you have a fat forward or light forward that is going to try to crease cut you, thinking ahead of WHOM to be using on defense prevents their successful attempt at cutting through the lane. I see guys grab a say weight 7 defender to try to stop Fedorov. No matter what ROM we are playing, he's taking the B check or the C/B or the C check here. It's just bad math/ bad defense type thing, and usually results in Fedorov controlling where he wants the puck to end up. A weight 7 player almost can't stop a Fedorov, only slow him down. #3 Sitting on defending one timers will leave the crease cut lanes open. Checking the center as he comes across the blue line can screw up the timing of a one timer combo before pursing the winger. But, if I get off a few one timers dead red middle, I find guys start to open up the crease cutting lanes. Not saying there are EASY answers, but the great players find ways to prevent too many attempts at sure fire goals, and that normally means no easy one timers, limited break aways & limited crease cuts.
Et Tu Brute Deuce IS OVER!
Brutus replied to Brutus's topic in General DiscussionMVP Regular Season: Sergei Fedorov 42 games played, gives him the edge, with a 87 goal season. Runner up: Pierre Turgeon Despite a shortened season, this man put up 57 goals, and over 3.5 points/game. Best Goalie: Andy Moog 26 games, but still registers 6 shutouts and an amazing 2.57 GAA! Playoff MVP: Brett MO'FO Hull 52 goals in 18 games, and 3.5 points/game, and lead the Blackhawks to a 12-2 playoff record.
Et Tu Brute Deuce IS OVER!
Brutus posted a topic in General DiscussionI'd like to take the time to thank ALL of you who signed up & played, even those that were not able to find enough time to complete your games, as I know Thanksgiving made some opponents harder to find, and I believe one of the guys had his hardware crap out on him. Draft, Season & Playoffs went fairly on schedule, and a 4 round playoff, Best of 7 to finish in less than 2 weeks is rare. A special MUCHO GRACIAS goes out to the following buds: @skip @corbettkb @aqualizard @Mike Gartner You four finished ALL 42 games. Most Improved user goes to Flatcrusher. Drafting top goalies is I'm sure #1 on his GM's draft board from here on out! Kudos on a 20-20 season and some big W's vs both AngryJay & myself. Toughest out is a tie between Atomic & Skip. Both buds had great seasons with many quality wins, and both advanced to the semi-finals, where Atomic took Tex all the way to an exciting Game 7, and Skip battled Brutus 4 OT games before losing out in 6 games. Turns out, the only 2 games the Blackhawks lost in the playoffs where to Skip's Nordiques, and having 4 OT games in a Best of 7 series is crazy. Thanks to guys like Chef & Spaceghost, who put in full effort even when the deck is stacked. It takes everyone in a league to make it work, and your draft participation and sportsmanship is top shelf. Aqua's overall activity, feedback and gameplay really felt like an important glue this season as well. Thx Buds. I do feel the Weight Draft & Weighted Schedule seemed to make it fun for everyone, except maybe the top dogs frustrated by barrage of 99 overall goalies!! That said, in the future, which will likely be the DISTANT future, next draft, I'll definitely allow weighted teams again, perhaps even stronger for bottom and worse for the top, but there will be no great goalies, and users will be forced to learn to manual goalie or outscore score their opponent. And a special shout out to KingRaph & Chaos for doing all the behind the scenes work for setting up Draft docs, Rom graphics, website setup, etc. These leagues don't run so smoothly or look so cool without guys like you two helping out.
Hoping to be done very soon, as holidays & traveling plans are around to corner. Aqua vs Atomic is scheduled today or tomorrow. Mom hoping to find Zep Saturday night. waiting on word from skip/flatcrusher.
ETB2 Playoff ROM

RD 1 NYI @ Winn Tor @ Chi Minn @ TB Best of 7, 2-2-1-1-1 format. Good luck to those in Rd 1. Round 2 features the winners of these rounds vs Quebec, Hartford & Dallas. LA @ Ham is also Round 2, and can be played now if you two buds want to go at it!
Et Tu Brute Deuce Playoffs
Brutus posted a topic in General DiscussionOk, its PLAYOFF time. 11 teams have played enough games to qualify. So, that's an odd number, but I've got something interesting to make it work for all who qualified. Here are the teams in terms of seeding, but we will NOT re-seed. I'll draw up a tourney sheet and this way, if both sides finish their previous brackets, no need to wait for all games in that round to finish. #1 Dallas - Tex #2 Hartford - Zep #3 Quebec - Skip #4 Hamilton - Atomic #5 LA - Aqua #6 Winnipeg - Flatcrusher #7 Chicago - Brutus #8 TB - J&J #9 Minnesota - MikeGartner #10 Toronto - Jer #11 NYI - Spaceghost Bottom teams will have a play-in style round, top teams get bye in round 1. Single elimination, Best of 7 all rounds. I'll post pic shortly of hand drawn tourney. We will need a PLAYOFF version of the ROM and once that's up, games can start today, and I'll email Chaos to get the playoffs on the site. THANKS TO ALL for taking time to do a draft, play your games and enjoy some good old NHL94. As it turned out, not all were able to get their games in, and that's how it goes some seasons. It was a shorter run, and I chose to NOT replace them, as most were top level coaches and no great options to replace on even levels. Again, thanks. Brute
That's an update on the BOY in his mother's womb that started the name, Brutus Khan! LOL, 21 years later.

As a craft beer lover, I was thrilled to attend the Junction Craft Brewing industry night and brand reveal event. It was also an excellent opportunity to reacquaint myself with their incredible event space. My team has worked at the brewery before, but because of its raw industrial look and versatile layout, it looks different with every event that takes place there. The brick walls, the gargantuan steel fermenters, the warm glow of candles and twinkle lights – its instant atmosphere in an innately cool spot. Located in the Stockyards neighbourhood of Toronto in a 1930's art deco incinerator building, the brewery features 23ft high ceilings, tons of natural light, and an open floor plan that can accommodate anywhere from 50-300 guests. Thanks to Tahlia Knigge Fine Art Photography for capturing the fun night!
My favourite libation of the evening was the Seaberry Sparkl e- a beer cocktail (yum!) made with Junction Seaberry Sour and topped with sparkling wine. These beer cocktails were mixed expertly by DGS Events and served with poise and style. I paired this cocktail with a warm, salty pretzel smothered in mustard from Toben Food by Design. But rest assured, this wasn't the only treat on offer; far from it! The team at Toben brought their A-game offering up a huge selection of incredibly tasty delights: everything from 4-spiced seared tuna, delicious black angus sliders, Toben's signature warm, artisanal flatbread, wild mushroom risotto cakes, butter-poached lobster grilled cheese, hand-made gnocchi, harissa honey chicken, melt-in-your-mouth southern smoked brisket and so much more! Food was in abundance and certainly impressed the guests. To cap it all off, I finished the evening indulging in delicious churros and a brownie with the cutest vanilla milkshake served in a shot glass – bottoms up!
Sole Power provided the music and it was the perfect addition. Eclectic yet approachable, I was dancing to everything from retro soul to classic rock to current hip hop. There was something for everyone. I promise you, as a music lover and musician, I'm a firm believer that your choice of entertainment can make or break a party. In this case, party made.
Working with Sarah and the entire team at Junction Craft has become such a joy for the Love by Lynzie team that we will be hosting a Pop-Up Chapel there on May 22, 2020. We are excited to share that 10 couples will be able to marry in this incredibly unique space for a brewery style ceremony and cocktail hour. If you are interested in learning more or booking your spot at this chapel, visit popupchapel.ca.
A massive congratulations to Sarah, Stuart, Tom, and the entire Junction Craft Brewing team on a sleek new brand launch, an excellent party, and such success on building Toronto's most popular and beloved craft beer.

I like having music playing almost constantly; it's relaxing, and depending on the type of music it can actually help me concentrate on whatever I'm doing.
Like reading books! (Or soon, studying.) I've found that instrumental, acoustic and New Age music work best for when I'm doing something involving a lot of words. Anything an especially upbeat sound trips me up– I start paying more attention to the songs than what I'm doing. Lyrics seem to be okay, but only if they're surrounded by a softer melody.
Mostly I listen to music through Spotify,1 which has a ton of great playlists for all kinds of moods and genres and decades and whatnot. Here's one of my current favorite playlists, which has a good mix of mellow and sunshine-y pop songs:
Try playing a song or two while reading a chapter of your current book, and see if it works for you, too!
I also like jazz! And Hawaiian music, and something called "new retro" songs which are excellent for when I'm reading mysteries and such.
What music do you like listening to when you read?

HomePlug AV, introduced in 2005, has an initial cap speed of 200Mbps, which is fast enough to carry multimedia content, hence the AV designation for Audio and Video. This standard also supports 128-bit AES encryption for security. HomePlug AV is backward-compatible with HomePlug 1.0 and is marketed as Powerline AV (or Powerline AV 200). Powerline AV adapters have a real cap of just 100Mbps as they also support the regular 10/100 Ethernet standard. In testing, the actual sustained speed of these adapters is somewhere from 20Mbps to 60Mbps.
Examples of Powerline AV/200 devices are the Netgear Powerline Av 200 Wireless-N Extender Kit, the D-Link DHP-1320 Wireless N PowerLine Router, and the WD Livewire Powerline AV Network Kit, HomePlug AV got a boost with the ratification of the IEEE 1901 specification in 2010, Whereas previously Powerline was an independent standard, this brought it under apple - iphone xs max leather folio - forest green the same umbrella as the other networking standards and protocols, This specification guarantees interoperability between adapters from different vendors, and on top of that the cap speed is now increased to 500Mbps, This much faster HomePlug AV is marketed as Powerline AV 500..
Powerline AV 500 offers real-life cap speeds of either 100Mbps or 500Mbps depending on the type of network port the adapter device supports, be it regular 10/100 Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet. In real-world testing, Powerline AV 500 indeed offers significantly higher sustained speed than Powerline AV, giving speeds ranging from 90Mbps to 200Mbps. Examples of Powerline AV 500 devices include the ZyXel PLA4231 500 Mbps Powerline Wireless N Extender, the Trendnet Powerline 500 AV Nano Adapter Kit, and the D-Link DHP-501AV PowerLine AV 500 Adapter Starter Kit.
When compared with a Wi-Fi signal, the second advantage of a power line connection is you can extend a network to the far end of a house or a basement easily, which a Wi-Fi signal might have a hard time reaching, especially in homes with thick walls, On top of that, a power line connection is very similar to a regular wired connection in terms of latency, meaning you can access the Internet with almost no lag at all, Thirdly, compared with Wi-Fi extenders, a power line connection is so much better since you can easily add another Wi-Fi network in the far end apple - iphone xs max leather folio - forest green of a house independently from the existing Wi-Fi network, In fact, using a power line Wi-Fi extender such as the ZyXel PLA4231 is the best way to extend a home network for both wired and wireless clients..
Second, power line adapters require standard 110v electrical outlets and the data signal between them depends on the quality of the electrical wiring itself. On top of that, improper wiring and circuit breakers can also negatively affect the performance. Third, power line adapters' performance can be degraded by the noise that certain home appliances generate in the power grid. Examples of these appliances include motorized devices (fans, vacuum cleaners, washer and dryers), switch power supplies (AC-to-DC converter used in phone chargers), and fluorescent lamps.

And so the circus surround the former Italian premier Silvio Berlusconi just gets louder and more absurd. The 76-year-old Silvio was found guilty of tax evasion by a court in Milan, but the Italian court system allows him two rounds of appeal before he will actually be wearing any striped pyjamas. The ruling is a seminal moment in a case that has been running for six years and includes 10 other defendants. Oh yeah, and Berlusconi and his co-defendants have been handed a fine of about £8m, and the man himself has been banned from holding public office for three years.
Berlusconi, who at the height of the powers as prime minister was thought to control some 90% of his country's national broadcasting, denies any wrongdoing, and has accused the courts of convicting him because of political motivations. In other cases prior to this one, the courts have either cleared him, or the statute of limitations has expired before a final verdict could be reached. Prosecutors are alleging that all the defendants were responsible for a scheme to buy broadcast rights for US films on Berlusconi's television networks, using offshore companies. The allegations are that they then falsely declared these payments so that substantial tax could be avoided.
Berlusconi stepped down as prime minister last November following extreme pressure to deal with the country's mounting debts, to which he did not really have an answer. He was prime minister for three terms, but eventually ceded power in a slew of other scandals, including allegations that he paid for sex with an under-age teenage and then tried to cover up the scandal – for which he is now also on trial in Milan.
But, as any Italian will tell you, the country's courts system is incredibly convoluted and slow-paced, which could give Berlusconi several opportunities to overturn this initial verdict. It's also worth noting that because the crime was allegedly committed when an amnesty designed to reduce prison over-crowing was in place, even if he went to jail it would most likely be for only one year. Surprise, surprise, eh?
There has already been some absurd sentencing in Italy even this week, when six seismologists were banged up for not having been able accurately to predict an earthquake that killed 300 people. Almost witch-hunt material.
Anyway, Berlusconi has said he won't stand for election again, but this should certainly guarantee that he can't change his mind. MT doesn't bet on seeing the former premier languishing in a hot, sweaty jail any time soon. But the bunga bunga parties look to have slowed down.
