I Feel Good
September 11, 2009 by The Love Project Inc.
Filed under Uncategorized
To quote the late Godfather of Soul, James Brown. Wouldn't it be wonderful if all entitled Americans could make the same case?
It would appear that the probability of such an opportunity is getting closer to reality. Of course., there are still barriers to circumvent and hurdles to jump before the deal is signed, however, a universal health care plan grows imminent with each passing day. Politics being what it is, there will never be complete agreement on all sides. I'm reminded of the time-imbued adage, "You have to give something in order to get something in return". Once a lot of the red tape is dispensed with, the objective to have better care for our citizenry will be but steps away.
While pondering the pros and cons of this mammoth undertaking, it occurred to me how much one's health is commensurate to so many obvious and some not so obvious facets of everyday life. Surely a person in good health is more apt to engage in sports or the arts, to work longer hours more effectively, to be less likely to contract a disease … to simply live longer. Then there are the less obvious rewards.
When you're "feeling your oats", reflect on how many other things about yourself you feel good about. The insurmountable doesn't seem so insurmountable; the impossible starts to seem possible. That sense of equilibrium and well -being are some of the key elements to spur on your ability to be more compassionate, more concerned and more benevolent. When your overall self … mind, spirit and body … is improved or already at peak performance, you can be assured that Brown's literal translation of "I feel good" can be an ongoing testimony to your success in everyday living

The BLS has just released the August employment data and the indications are of a status quo economy: the unemployment rate down by 0.1% to 7.3% with an 169,000 increase in employment. Economists had expected an increase of 180,000. The average rise in payrolls so far this year has been 192,000 jobs a month. BLS also revised the job growth in July downward.
The potentially good news is that the total number of involuntary underemployed (part time for economic reasons) declined dramatically in August. This was due to a sharp drop in those on slack work. The number of workers who could only find part time
work rose slightly. The drop in slack work may signal an increase in production.

A small team returned to Mulu in 2010 to focus on photographic, surveying and scientific objectives in the Southern Hills region of the park.
The expedition was in the field between the 4th and 25th May. This year only a small team returned to Mulu with different objectives to previous expeditions. This time the focus was not on exploration but surface survey, science and photography. The Southern Hills was the main objective for most of this work. Many of the caves in the massif had been explored during the early expeditions which took place between 1978 and 1984, and although the caves were surveyed and published at the time, there was no attempt to link them altogether. The elevations of the caves were needed to assist the scientists with their development work and the exact positions around the mountain would enable more accurate maps and graphics to be drawn. Over the course of the trip some 15km of surface traverse were surveyed around the Southern Hills linking up the caves of Deer, Green, Snake, Mayday, Deerwater, Stonehorse, Paris, Fernrock, Surfrace, Daniels and a number of smaller caves and significant surface features.
Along side the survey work, Dr Gina Moseley and Professor Pete Smart, continued the latest scientific research programme into the timing of cave development, which had commenced during the 2009 expedition. This took the programme into the caves of the Southern Hills and southern Gunung Api. Sites were targeted for sampling of quartz, speleothem and sediment in Deer Cave, Clearwater Cave, Green Cave, Lagangs Cave, Racer Cave and Stone Horse Cave. Analysis of these samples using Al26-Be10 cosmogenic burial dating, U-Pb dating and paleomagnetic dating respectively, will assist further in understanding cave development and rates of fluvial incision within the Park.
A number of photographic trips were undertaken to caves close to park headquarters. Previously the only major photos the Mulu Caves Project had of these caves were taken during the original explorations over 25 years ago on film format cameras. It was intended to start a project to capture the magnificence of these caves on modern digital equipment and improve our photo database. Deer, Green, Racer, Lagans, Wind and Stonehorse were all visited for this reason. Several of these caves are used as tourist or adventure locations and it is hoped that some of the photographs may be used for educational or promotional purposes with the park.
It was not intended to seek out new discoveries on this expedition, however, in the course our other work a number of small discoveries were made. Most of these had already been entered by bird nesters. These were all surveyed and the Southern Hills database increased by 2417m. This included three short caves in the isolated Batu which were already used for adventure caving by the national park.
For the second expedition running we had a member who had travelled directly between the two great caves of Vietnam's Hang Son Dong and Mulu's Deer Cave. Again the opinion of that member was that there was no part of Hang Son Dong that was bigger than the main passage of Deer Cave. This must call into question the subjective claims that Hang Son Dong is the largest cave passage in the world.

Nursing Schools in Massachusetts
Nursing is a profession that has been around for years, but has never seen the boom in need as it has now. Our population is not just growing, it is aging. That leads to a desperate need for talented and educated nursing professionals that can meet the demands of the population locally, nationally and throughout the world. With an education in nursing, be it a diploma or certification program, a BSN, MSN, DNP or PhD in Nursing, you will stand at the forefront of leading the industry in ensuring all people have access to the health care they need and deserve.
Massachusetts registered nurses earn an average income of over $80,000 a year. If you want to ensure that you fall on the upper parts of that average you will need to combine education and experience. Employers will look at your education as a key factor to where they can use you within their company, but experience will determine how far up you can move and will impact your income in large ways. Fortunately, in just a couple of years you can earn your education, pass the NCLEX-RN to become a licensed registered nurse and start your career as you continue your education to expand your potential in the industry.
As you explore locations to start your new life, you should keep the following information in mind. Lawrence, Worcester and New Bedford have the highest number of registered nurses working relative to the population, while Lowell, Framingham and Taunton have the lowest percentage of RNs working relative to the population. This may lead you to explore those underserved cities as they will be in the most need of your talents. To earn the highest median salary, explore opportunities in Boston, Framingham and Worcester.
As a starting point, the following employers are worth special mention. Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospital, and Children's Hospital Boston in Boston, St. Luke's Hospital in New Bedford, Massachusetts General for Children in Salem and The Center for Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine in Beverly rank among the top 20 employers in the state across all industries. Use this information as a starting point as you explore your career opportunities. Also look for employers that will assist and support you as you continue your education. Some will offer financial aid to ensure that you become a better trained, talented nurse on their team.
You will likely start touring or researching colleges well in advance of enrollment. Pay special attention to the unique loans, scholarships and grants they offer students that enroll in their learning institution. This will ensure that you ease the financial burden as much as possible as you start your education. In addition, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services offers loans, scholarships and loan repayment options for those entering the health care profession. This is done because of the lack of health care millions of Americans face on a daily basis. By committing to a two year tour in an underserved area, you will qualify for a loan repayment plan that will allow you to receive a large sum to pay towards your school loans.
UMassAmherst School of Nursing
UMassAmherst is a force for innovation, discovery and learning in preparing culturally aware and proficient nurses for leadership in the health care field for a global society. With 60 years of experience as a leader in nursing education, the school prepares candidates to enter the profession at the BSN, MSN or doctoral levels without compromising the development of vital nurse educators and researchers to inform and educate the future generation of students in nursing. With foundation courses in the sciences and humanities to form the basis of a nursing major, you will be prepared to practice confidently in a variety of health care settings upon graduation. The BSN integrates core knowledge and competencies with a role development appropriate to this level of education. Specialized courses continue to prepare you for furthering your education and specializing in specific roles upon graduation from the PhD and DNP programs.
MGH Institute of Health Professions
With an accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing and a Master of Science in Nursing program, you can start your education with no background at all. If you are currently a RN, you will find high level educations available including a Master of Science Nursing program designed for RNs, a RN to DNP, Post-Master's DNP and DNP for Nurse Executives program. Certification programs are also offered for those looking to increase and enhance their education in the field. No matter what you choose, you will study to become a compassionate and capable nurse that will be on the forefront of change in health care. As the successor institution to the 104-year-old Massachusetts General Hospital diploma nursing school, the MGH Institute has been on the forefront of nursing education for a very long time. The experience will show as graduating classes consistently have a 95-100% pass rate as first-time takers of both the registered nurse licensure exam (NCLEX-RN) and the advanced practice nursing certification (ANCC and NCC). The results speak for themselves, and the focus on creating caring, complete and competent nurses will ensure that your education is worth the investment at the MGH Institute.

Not possible to edit a model outside of designer.
i.e. If I use another editor for general development and wanted to edit custom functions and such like outside of the designer this is not possible.
Two solutions:
1. Model definitions should follow a similar pattern of stores and views.
i.e. A base class should be generated for a model and user defined functions should be editable in the parent class.
2. Somehow allow editing of added functions outside of the designer.

Christian missionaries in Malaysia are using verses of the Noble Qur'an about Jesus in an effort to preach Christianity to Muslims in this South-East Asian country. "You aren't criticizing Muhammad or any other prophets," David Garrison, a Christian missionary, told The New York Times on Saturday, March 13. Garrison uses a strategy called "Camel Method", which involves using Quranic verses about Jesus to convert Muslims to Christianity. In one case, the missionary speaks with Muslims about the miraculous birth of Jesus.Read More
The Islamic version of Jesus the son of Mary (peace be upon him) is the true and correct Jesus, as the whole world should believe. The Jews regard Jesus as a false prophet, Christians over-praise him as the "Son of God", yet the Islamic version of Jesus(P) lies between these two extremes and remains absolutely true to the nature of Jesus, upon whom be peace. Muslims believe that Jesus(P) was a Prophet and Messenger of God, the Christ, but he was not God-incarnate.Read More

Hello Beautiful People!
Last Sunday I attended the Fashion Awards MD 2014 at the Lord Baltimore Hotel in Baltimore, MD as a VIP guest and Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey gown design contestant.
It truly meant the world to me to be chosen as a showcasing fashion designer. I've been sewing and designing my entire life and to take part in something of this caliber really made me feel validated as a designer. Yes, I was recently a featured RAW artist and I thought that the highlight of my 2014. But then I was able to take part in this and it meant so much more to be recognized locally. Even if I didn't win a thing, I was just happy to take part. It truly meant the world to me.
LIVE YOUR DREAMSCoach K, the life coach and event speaker of #FAMD, said that some of the most beautiful, most talented, and smartest people the world may ever know are at the cemetery. Why? Because they let fears hold them back from showing their gifts to the world. They take their gifts to the grave. Well darn it that won't be me. I may not have been the prettiest on the red carpet, the richest in VIP, or the most talented on the stage. But I was there. I took a chance and I put my art (my baby) up for public speculation. I did it. I want to cry. I did cry. I am crying still, because I am proud of myself. And my New Year resolution may be late, but here it is: I won't let FEAR of rejection hold me back. I refuse to take my gift to the grave having never shared it with the world. This year I will do more than I did last year.

text: I just read that Chris Griffin, a great big band player died this past week. He was truly a GREAT ONE. From George T. Simon's book, The Big Bands, talking about the Benny Goodman trumpet section, that Duke Ellington called "THe Eighth Wonder of the World".... "People used to argue about who was playing the potent lead trumpet in that section- Harry, Ziggy or Chris-for each could blow with convincing brilliance. Some fans persisted in crediting James for everything. But they were wrong about two-thirds of the time. James explains in his Metronome column of June, 1938: Harry James says; "I'm just one of the lead trumpeters in the band. There's no definate rule about dividing the first book, either-nothing like Chris taking all the pretty tunes and Ziggy and I dividing the ride numbers. We just get the first parts in rotation. If an arrangement comes in and it's Ziggy's turn to get the lead, he takes it; if it's Chris's turn, he takes it, and if it's my turn it's handed over to me." "The funny part is, though, that most people can't tell by listening which one of us is playing lead. And it seems funny that we should have such similar tones and style when we play so differently. Chris has a one-third top, two-thirds bottom emboucher, Ziggy's is two-thirds top and one-third bottom and dangerously close to his ear, while mine's a slightly off-center, half and half, puffed-out-cheek affair." Harry had a lot of respect for Chris. Rest in peace. Chuck Willard

The Movie: Do the Right Thing (1989)
What Is It?: On the hottest day of the year, racial tensions in Bed-Stuy boil through the thermostat. Spike Lee bravely refuses to offer pat answers to serious questions about the right thing to do in the face of gross injustice and he never flinches from showing the ugly face behind the mask of "racial tolerance." He's also great as our hero Mookie, but the most uncomfortably convincing performance comes from Danny Aiello, who has admitted to being more like his character than you might want to believe.
Why Today?: According to the New York Times, this was the hottest day of 1989 to date.

10 Edgy Toys For The Alternative Child

Fortunately, there are hundreds of toys out there for our children to choose from, and some of the more edgy alternative toys are gaining momentum in popularity with kids these days.
Monster High Dolls.
Launched by Mattel in 2010, Monster High has become a staple among alternative children throughout the world. While they began with a Television mini –series, they have grown to include movies, animated shorts, and of course the famous alternative dolls.
The best part about Monster High is that it promotes acceptance among the younger generations. The moral of these films and the dolls are that you're beautiful, no matter what you look like. That is definitely a solid reason to add a Monster High doll or two into your child's toy chest. Some of the most popular dolls are:
- Draculara.
- Clawdeen.
- Cleo.
- Frankie Stein.
- Venus McFlytrap.
- Toralei.
- Jinafire.
- Gigi.
- Ghoulia.
- Clawd.
- Deuce Gorgon.
- Gil Webber.
- Lagoona Blue.
- Operetta.
- Cupid.
- Rebecca Steam.
There are of course, many more dolls where these come from. With each movie release, a new set of Monster High dolls are sure to follow.
Zombie Costumes.
With hits like the Walking Dead, it's no wonder that playing zombies is a new popular trend with kids on the playground. But, if they want to mix it up a little bit when they get home, zombie costumes are definitely the way to go.
Even if they're a little too edgy for day to day dress up wear, zombie costumes are a great staple for Halloween season.

Gund Uglydoll.
First launched in 2001, the Uglydolls are the brain child of creators David Horvath and Sun-Min Kim. While the name may make you think that they're absolutely ugly, that couldn't be further from the truth. They're unique, special, and absolutely adorable in an alternative kind of way.
Zoomer Zuppies.
If your child isn't quite ready for their own pet, a Zoomer Zuppie may be the best choice for them. These robotic puppies are interactive, fun, and absolutely adorable. They can be found in numerous different color schemes, making it possible for just about any kid to find the right Zuppie for them.
In line with the Zoomer Zuppie, GigiBirds make a great alternative pet choice for young children. These talking birds are a great source of technological entertainment for kids.
First Act Guitar Picks.
It's no surprise that a lot of alternative kids absolutely love music and playing instruments. But, when they have gravitated toward playing the guitar it's hard to give them a little extra flair that they're looking for when custom guitars are so expensive. But, just like an outfit, accessories for the guitar are a great way to add some style to your kid's musical dreams, including First Act Guitar Picks that can be found with creative and edgy prints on them.
Their First Guitar.
Musical instruments are a great way to help build confidence in children, and one of the best instruments to help nurture a love of music is a guitar.

Metallic Extreme Coloring Kit.
Coloring is a staple in any kid's life. It's been around for so many years that just about every adult can remember their first coloring book, or at least their favorite. But, with the world of technology opened up to kids, it's no wonder that companies had to get a little creative with what coloring or activity books they're offering. The Metallic Extreme coloring kit is a great example of this, where children create with beautiful metallic sheen.
3D Skull Puzzles.
3D puzzles are amazing yet challenging, a 3D skull puzzle is no exception. They can be found in many different colors, shapes, and sizes, but will be a great fit for just about any edgy or alternative child who would want to display something a little more macabre in their room.
Hollywood Zombies Trading Card Game.
We've all heard of Pokémon, Magic the Gathering, and other card games, but some of these may be a little too sweet for an alternative child. Hollywood Zombies Trading Card Game is a great way to shake things up a little bit in the trading card world.

I teach a class in China at Guide Schools and with Travel Services on occasions when I am working there each year. One of the things that some guides tell me is that communications with foreigners is sometimes difficult with all the accents and many who use slang words that they do not understand. It is considered to be impolite to ask foreigners to repeat something or to tell them that they do not understand them. It is a cultural requirement to give a positive answer to inquiries or questions so sometimes the communications lacks some mutual understanding. Chinese usually learn British English and by time they graduate from the University can speak about 7to 8 thousand words. Americans normally use about 12 thousand words in normal conversation and many slang words, double meanings etc. etc. And yes, we do have a very strong accent. Chinese guides must deal with British, American, Australian, Canadian and many people who speak English as a second language. Speaking slowly, using formal English and avoiding slang will help greatly with communications. I often watch the eyes of a new Chinese friend to see if they are understanding me and if I get that bewildered blank look, know I must rephrase myself until I get a positive reaction to my statement or question. Some Chinese friends speak perfect English and I sometimes catch myself falling back into my American slang but not for long. The book above is a great help when going to China. If you can not find it in book stores, I keep about 50 copies on hand at $25 each post paid. Contact me at: email@example.com More Photos at www.picasaweb.google.com/ChinaDave1

Tackling Life at the Heart of Complexity [Guest Post]
[I am pleased to share this guest article from Edison user Ralf Westphal, who blogs at http://ralfw.blogspot.com. This is a result of my experiment to offer Edison users a chance to share their thoughts on the Experiment-Driven life. I invite you to consider his point that our lives are complex systems, ones that cannot be represented as simple state machines, and which can only be modified via experimenting. For these kinds of systems, cookie-cutter solutions don't apply (this is my point about books on success - they aren't repeatable), and thinking things through will only take you so far; you have to steer. I also like his ideas on experimenting with blondes. I've not done any editing, just some formatting. Thanks Ralf! -- matt]
You think life's complicated? How then can you find out what to do? Well, I'd say think harder before you decide about any matter. Read up on the subject, talk to people who seem to be knowledgeable about the topic of relevance, consciously employ a decision process like the Analytic Hierarchy Process [1]. Then, in the end, after an acceptable amount of analysis, deliberation, and musing... decide and act accordingly. There'll be a good chance the outcome will be as expected.
When matters are complicated, thinking will help. Through more thinking it will become clear, what to do to achieve a certain outcome. For complicated systems thinking and analysis/decomposition will uncover the actions to be taken to move the system from its current state to the desired state. And having operated a complicated system will make you an expert; that means you become more and more efficient in directing the system from state to state. You'll need less thinking and can rely more on intuition.
Complicated systems are fundamentally predictable. If you know their current state you can "calculate" their resulting state for any given change you are going to apply. The "calculation" might be hard, very hard, but that does not matter. As long as there is some way to "calculate" state transitions a system is just complicated.
Take the Tower of Hanoi [2] or Rubik's Cube [3] for example. To solve those games you just need to think according to their rules.
Take flying an airplane as another example. Moving thousands of tons through the air can be done by a computer. Millions of people trust auto-pilots every day - while you personally might think you could never do it. But it's not magic. For sufficient computing power there is enough time "to think" about what actions to take according to the airplane's current state and current sensory input.
Or is this complicated? It seems to be since a computer can do it, and computers are good at doing rote calculations.
In fact, though, flying an airplane is a complex matter. The combined system of airplane and environment is complex. Flying an airplane is a steering problem, like driving a car is, or riding a bicycle.
Systems are complex, just thinking and analysis does not clearly tell you, which actions to take to move the system from its current (macro) state to the desired (macro) state.
Now, think again about your life. Do you still think life's complicated?
No. Life is a complex system. Except for matters like untying a knot or cooking pasta life is complex: You don't know what the outcome of your actions will be. And thinking hard about a matter of your life will rarely lead to a surefire plan.
Of course, people want their life to be at most complicated. Carrots-and-sticks management is an example of that. A manager incentivizing an employee is trying to push a button to reach a certain result. The reasoning is, "If I give her X, then she'll accomplish the task in a shorter time." That's linear thinking. That's thinking in clear cause effect relationships. However, thinking like "This action will certainly lead to that outcome" is at most working in complicated scenarios.
The world in general and specifically people don't have clearly labeled buttons to push, though, or levers to pull to move them from current state to desired state. Will the employee really accomplish the task in a shorter time just because of the incentive? Maybe, maybe not. It depends on the kind of task - working in a quarry or developing a business plan -, and it depends on the kind of bonus - money or time off or a medal - which means it depends on something largely unknown: the state and personality of a living system. Some people can be motivated with money of a certain amount - others not. You never know, at least today. And that's just a small facet of life's complexity.
How about losing weight? What about opening a bakery store called "Our Daily Bread" in New York, offering all sorts of German bread and cake, of course sold by blond girls wearing traditional German Dirndl [4] dresses and speaking with a lovely German accent? Or take flying an airplane as an example again.
How do you go about it? How do you reach your goal of losing 10 pounds or becoming New York's most trendy bakery or safely transporting 250 people from Chicago to L.A. through the air?
Well, you start experimenting. Experiments, lots of experiments are the only way to move a complex system from a current (macro) state to the desired (macro) state.
There is no recipe for losing weight (and not gaining it back soon after) - otherwise somebody would have already become extremely, no, humongously rich by selling access to it. So what you have to do is try something and see what happens. Should you eat more salad and less fat? Nobody really knows. You have to see for yourself. Devise an experiment and faithfully execute it like any scientist would do. Then check the results, compare them to your hypothesis, and either continue along the path of success or change your course by modifying hypothesis/experiment and trying again.
The same goes for opening a bakery in New York. Which part of New York to open it in? Ask market research. Thinking will be of quite some help to find the right location. But should the girls behind the counter really wear traditional German dresses? Do they need to be blond? How many different sorts of bread should you offer? What's the right price to a piece of Sachertorte [5] or a loaf of Vollkornbrot (see [6] for a picture of typical whole-grain bread)? You simply don't know. You have to try and see what happens. Formulate a hypothesis like "Young blond girls traditionally dressed will make a difference in sales" and then run an experiment. Make it small so falsification of your hypothesis won't kick you out of business. But nevertheless experiment. Take small steps, move forward incrementally towards your goal.
That's also called steering. For a given (macro) state "calculate" a new intermediate state in the direction of your ultimate desired (macro) state, take action to move to the new state - then check if you reached it and if you still feel en route to your goal. Chop the complex journey from here to your goal into just complicated little steps. That's what an auto-pilot is doing. That's what a computer is capable of doing. Flying a plane is not like shooting a cannon ball. Shooting is complicated; its outcome can be calculated. By flying is complex. Since a (auto-)pilot does not fully know the state of an airplane's environment he can only make small adjustments and watch what happens.
Life's a complex endeavor. The only way to reach whatever goals you have is by continuous experimentation. That's what you've been doing anyway and can be called learning. But why not take it to the next level? Why not switch to a more explicit experimentation mode? Why not more consciously formulate goals and hypothesize about how to reach them and then try moving towards them in small experimental steps. Think, act, reflect - or as Matthew Cornell phrases it: think, try, learn.
Viewing life as a multitude of ongoing and ever changing experiments is a road leading to more satisfaction. It replaces the fixation on goals with a process. And this process can never fail. So if you refocus on faithful experimentation you're in for a lot of happiness. Because success for an experiment is defined by just producing a result. But how can your experiments not produce any results? Either they support your hypothesis and you're happily right on track towards your goal; or they falsify your hypothesis and you can be happy to know so you can change your course.
An experimenter's life is a happy life. So why not start thinking, trying, learning today to tackle life's complexity?

We are hosting a Go Set a Watchman release party as our annual Feed the Bird event this year. Admission is $10 OR the purchase of the new book. Willi Goehring and friends will provide music. Nomads will have food for sale, including some southern fare in addition to their usual menu. The Garden Room will have beer and punch for sale and are generously allowing us to close off the west parking lot for the event. Yellow Gecko Productions will be on hand to take pictures. Nightbird Books will have our usual menu of drinks and cobbler for sale. Come hungry!
Why a ticketed event? Summers are slow for us and as far as one can get from the flush days of Christmas. We have found that hosting a ticketed event over the summer makes a big difference to our cash flow. Nearly everything else we host throughout the year is free and this event helps fund them.
Email email@example.com or call 479.443.2080 to reserve a copy of Go Set a Watchman as we have a limited supply available that night.

Click on the image to enlarge. To keep the chart simple on the cycle models, I use the absolute value of the z-score, since it is a symmetrical function. In this case, the sign value (+ or -) shows the direction of the expected reversal. Thanks to Greenface over at daneric's site for asking the question that inspired this.
Viewed in a historical context, this EOD chart suggests we are approaching historical extremes not seen since the mid-50's as well as other economically unpleasant periods in the past.
Edit on 2011.110.12 at 16:30: I prettied up the chart and used EOD DJIA data rather than the 2:00 PM market price level. The story is the same.

I can truly admire when someone writes a book about something so specific that it should be nerdy and trivial, but in a manner that (at the end) you think to have read something really special.
This is exactly the case in Leonardo Olschki's 'The myth of felt'. Mr. Olschki is clearly a specialist in Dante literature, but he takes his reader on a journey on account of just one sentence in the first canto of the Divina Commedia:
E sua nazion sara tra feltro e feltro
No-one really knows what is feltro. Well, actually it is of course the word for felt as a fabric, but the meaning is obscure. To make things even more complex, one of the central themes of the canto is the 'Veltro', the Greyhound, as a symbol for the powerdul leader that would lead Rome/Italy out of its moral confusion. So it is also a grammatical joke(?) with its subject.
Olschki supplies a double explanation, first a tour in Tartaric tradition in which felt is also a royal fabric, and in which kings are lifted by their lower officials on felt, both at the start of their reign and at their burial.
Then he switches to the mythical twins Castor and Pollux, and their designation as the classical good sign/omen and their traditional depiction with felt Phrygian caps.
As the booklet build up slowly with its theory, the royal grandeur of the humble fabric works all over the pages. Felt-obsessed Beuys would have been proud (would he have known the book). One thing is clear at the end of the book. Felt can be seen as something royal, powerful, or if you want - that something this interlaced, and this strongly layered, can only be compared to life itself.
Fascinating read!

Most people's image of the classic criminal defense attorney is that of Johnnie Cochran defending O.J. Simpson, Clarence Darrow's famous closing argument in the case of Richard Loeb and Nathan Leopold, or Shawn Holley Chapman's ongoing attempt to help Lindsey Lohan stay out of jail. The day-to-day reality of what a defense lawyer does, though, is much less likely to make the headlines of Entertainment Tonight or the Baltimore Sun. Most often, the criminal defense attorney's hardest work comes behind the scenes, where frequently the most benefit for the client can be had. This is especially true when a criminal defendant is facing charges that have highly inflamed the public and are drawing a lot of attention from the media.
In order to obtain the best representation possible – for cases in the media or just of concern to the defendant and his or her family – individuals facing criminal charges should seek representation by experienced Maryland criminal defense attorneys. At Brassel Alexander, our criminal defense attorneys are highly experienced, and always seek to obtain the best possible results for our clients, whether that result can be found in the courtroom or through negotiation with the prosecutor.
When the media spotlight focuses on a case, the defendant in the case is at an extreme disadvantage. When public attention stays on the facts of a case, not only does the potential jury pool become tainted with significant amounts of inadmissible statements and evidence, but the State's Attorney begins to feel a lot of political pressure as well. State's Attorneys are elected officials in Maryland, and it is inevitable that they will listen to what their constituencies have to say on a matter that has a high public profile.
A case in point was the recent plea deal for Teonna Brown, the young woman charged with the beating of Chrissy Polis, a transgendered woman, at a local McDonald's. The episode caught significant regional media attention, was viewed on video millions of times around the world, and was also used by advocates for transgendered people to strengthen calls for legal protection for the transgendered.
Under such public scrutiny, obtaining a fair trial for Ms. Brown in the case would have been very difficult, and the importance for the criminal defense attorney to press the case behind the scenes became paramount. Charged with first degree assault and other crimes, Ms. Brown faced a minimum of 25 years in prison, with the possibility of having an additional ten years of prison time tacked on because of hate crime charges. Ms. Brown's defense attorney, however, was able to work out a plea deal in which Ms. Brown would only face a ten-year sentence, with five of those years suspended. Thus, while the defense attorney's work was done behind the scenes in this case, it was in all likelihood much more effective than anything that he could have accomplished in front of a jury in a courtroom.
It is vital for criminal defendants to hire experienced Maryland criminal defense attorneys immediately when faced with criminal charges. When the public is focused on a particular crime and calling for a heavy punishment, experienced legal representation can be the difference between a very difficult trial and a positive result in plea negotiations.

New details are emerging on "The Kennedy Detail" -- the book-inspired, big-screen "answer to" Oliver Stone's conspiracy-laden 1991 film "JFK." Among the more intriguing, at least for local movie-goers: It is scheduled to start shooting in March in New Orleans, the same city in which Stone shot his film some 22 years ago.
That's according to a news release sent out this morning (Jan. 7) by producers for the film, which is expected in theaters this fall, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of the Kennedy assassination. "The Kennedy Detail" will be directed and co-written by Stephen Gyllenhaal ("Paris Trout"), the father of sibling actors Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal.
The independent drama -- a co-production of Atchity Entertainment International and Ramos & Sparks Group -- will tell the story of John F. Kennedy's 1963 assassination from the point of view of members of his Secret Service detail. The film's producers, in a news release last spring announcing the film, said it is intended to be an answer to Stone's "fanciful 'JFK.'"
"JFK and his story will be brought to life with cutting-edge CGI and enhanced historical footage, allowing the actors to 'interact' with the 'real' 35th president," Gyllenhaal said in the release. "The actors will also have direct access to (Secret Service) agents, now in their 80s, three of whom were within a few feet of the assassination."
Principal casting on the film is set to begin this week.
"The Kennedy Detail" is based on the New York Times bestseller of the same name written by former Secret Service agent Gerald Blaine -- a former member of Kennedy's security detail -- with journalist Lisa McCubbin. The book has already spawned a Discovery Channel documentary, also called "The Kennedy Detail," which was narrated by Martin Sheen and nominated in 2011 for a News and Documentary Emmy in the long-form historical programming category.
Among crew members announced this week are casting directors Kerry Barden and Paul Schnee ("The Help," "Pineapple Express"); line producer Jennifer Roth ("Black Swan," "The Wrestler"); production designer Lilly Kilvert ("Legends of the Fall," "The Last Samurai"); costume designer Mayes C. Rubeo ("Avatar," "Total Recall"); and screenwriters Gyllenhaal and Kathleen Kwai Ching.
In addition, Blaine and McCubbin will serve as associate producers, and former agent Clint Hill -- the agent seen climbing onto the back of Kennedy's limousine following the shooting -- is serving as a special adviser.
For more on the film, visit the official "Kennedy Detail" website. You can also hear the film's producers and other principals talk about the film in the embedded video below.

CORPUS CHRISTI - Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi has broken ground on a multimillion dollar expansion project to the school's University Center. The 35,000-sf expansion will total $27.5 million.
The expansion will include lounge area, ballroom and even a convenience store. The addition will also double the existing kitchen and dining areas. The project is planned to be complete by summer 2015.
The University Center expansion is part of a new master plan for the future expansion in coming years. The growth of student enrollment is leading the need for the major expansion.
The Master Planners predict that by fall 2020, more than 18,000 students will be enrolled; by 2025, 22,000 students will be enrolled.
The plan makes room on the Island Campus for 39 new buildings and four new parking garages. Many of these new buildings will be used for research, as the University plans to triple its research expenditures as it strives to obtain "emerging research status."

0 Flares 0 Flares ×Editor's note: The following guest post was written by Ivan Markovic, who is a member of the Appcelerator Titan's program. After getting a degree in Drama and Computing Ivan spent 8+ years at Adobe working in the Advanced Technology Division where he helped introduce PDF to the world. Over the past 10 years he's been acting as an Independent Consultant focusing on PDF based Java technologies as well as front end and UI expertise. These days he split's his time between developing Apps for the UKs largest independent Estate Agent and designing and developing Apps for magicians and musicians. He also finds time for designing and developing lighting sculptures. I recently developed a magic iPhone Application using Titanium, called 'Streets'. In the end I have to say that it turned out to be considerably more arduous, stressful and fraught than I thought it would be! So some background… I'm a magician, a member of the Magic Circle here in the UK and recently Penn & Teller recorded a pilot for a new show called 'Fool Us' where they invited magicians to see if they could fool them with a magic trick. A magician called John Archer was able to do just that and so with him being a hot property I approached him to develop an iPhone App. He had an idea based on a trick he released a number of years ago that involved the use of a map, where the spectator leafed through an A-Z Street map of London and stopped on any page and chose any street. The magician was then able to tell the spectator which street they had chosen! A very powerful effect and not cheap.

Day 6: Kayenta to Torrey As we passed through the red landscape that surrounds this part of Arizona and leads into Utah we had no idea what was in store for us. There are many roads on this trip that lead into forever, where you can't see the end, or the turn and you feel like it is taking you into the belly of mountain itself. This road was now a gravel incline that zig zagged its way back and fourth across the cliffs face. It was sign posted "5 MPH loose gravel". This was the Roadery's route we were following and we were on rental sportsters and stoked. We slowly made our way, back and forth, up the road stopping every few turns to take it all in and to look out back across the vastness of Arizona. Once at the top we realized Utah was about to blow all the amazing things we had seen in California away. Every road and turn would take us through new geography and some stretches of road were spent saying "Holy Sh*t* repeatedly.
From forests of pine trees, to desert cliffs and mountains for miles, with only a tiny gas station in the middle of nowhere, to valleys where the Colorado River made its way through and then finally into Capital Reef National Park. This day was epic, maybe my best one on a motorcycle yet. The sandstone rock formations made it feel like we were riding through another planet as the highway wound its way through section after section of amazing terrain. We probably added an hour on to our riding time from going so slow and just looking up at the massive cliffs as we drove through.

CO2 levels in atmosphere reach record-breaking level
An alarming new report from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography shows a record-breaking amount of CO2 in our atmosphere.
According to NBC, the new tests show the level of carbon dioxide, a green house gas considered most responsible for global warming, in our atmosphere is now at its highest in human history.
A little more than six decades ago, it was measured at about 300 parts per million. In April 2014, the gas measured in at more than 400 parts per million each day, according to USA Today. The outlet says scientists have been recording CO2 levels since the late 1950s along a graph called the Keeling Curve.
Scientists tweeted out the news via the Keeling Curve's account, noting the average CO2 level measured in at 401.33 parts per million.
More troubling - researchers at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, or NOAA, say much of the rise in carbon dioxide has come about in the past 100 years.
"Humans have caused carbon dioxide concentrations to rise 120 ppm since pre-industrial times, with over 90 percent of that in the past century alone."
But it doesn't stop there. James Butler, director of NOAA's Global Monitoring Division, says not only has the concentration itself increased, but the rate of increase has, too.
"The rate of increase has accelerated from about 0.7 ppm per year in the late 1950s to 2.1 ppm per year during the last decade."
So not only are we reaching higher concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, but according to NASA, the process is also getting faster each year.
A writer for Slate spoke with Ralph Keeling, keeper of the Keeling Curve. Keeling says this new milestone is troubling and we must reduce fossil fuel burning.
"It's clear if we keep on the same course we're heading for a very different world. That carries with it lots of risks. If the climate changes fast enough, those risks are compounded."

Forgot my Sugar, added in after a well kneaded dough still works!
I was making a chocolate bread today. After putting all ingredients I kneaded the dough well, it felt a little harder than usual, I decided to add a liitle water and finally it came together. I put it aside to proof. Then It suddenly dawned on me that I didn't add in sugar. Instead of throwing itbout or leaving it as is ( it'll be alittle bitter because of the cocoa), I decided to take the risk and add in the sugar and knead some more. Adding the sugar in the middle of the dough a little at a time, I managed to incorporate the sugar in. Initially the dough was turning sticky, I persevered, it finally came together, with all the sugar melted into the dough. This texture felt right this time with the sugar. I didn't realize how important sugar is to the texture of the dough till today!
Learning from this is, remember to place all ingredients in front of you, and there's always a way to solve a dough problem!
My chocolate bread turns out as require.

I hope that all those secession petitions sent to the White House are merely symbolic, and that the people involved don't think seriously about it. If so, they are just as bad as the statists who want to ignore the constitutional process for their own ends. In a re-airing of a 150-year-old settled argument, the White House responded that: no, there is no right to secede and that disagreement is part of the democratic process. I wish Obama himself would pay closer attention to that part of the argument.
If you are a real secessionist out there, please read the Constitution. In it there is this part called Article V. It sets up the conditions under which the Constitution may be amended. Here's the text — give it a read. It's purposely a slow and deliberate process. In an age of instant gratification, people are impatient. Yes, the Obama Nation is tearing at our freedoms piece-by-piece, but please take a lesson from them — the progressive left has implemented their agenda slowly and deliberately for 100 years. They are a determined group — so must the opposition be.
If you're not a real secessionist and just generally upset at our ruling class driving us towards oblivion — good for you! These secession petitions are symbolic, but in concert with all the recent gun sales, I'm sure it bugs the heck out of them on some level!

SMITHSBURG - The possibility of curbside recycling in Smithsburg took another step forward Tuesday night when Councilman Jerome Martin asked that three vendors be approached to provide the town with plans and prices for a range of services.
Martin said specifications and cost estimates should be sought for three levels of service - 250 households, 500 households and the entire town.
Betsy Martin, town clerk/treasurer/manager, read a letter at the meeting from Washington County to all municipalities, outlining the possibility of coattailing to save money.
"We will need to know our tipping fees so we can compare when we start curbside recycling," Martin said.
The goal is to have something in place by July 2009.

Kumaramangalam Birla eighth youngest billionaire: Fortune
Kumaramangalam Birla ranks the eighth youngest billionaire, outside the United States, according to Fortune magazine ratings , pipping Australian media tycoon Richard Li with $2.1 billion to his name against Li's $1.6 billion.
Fortune has compiled a list of 40 richest people under 40 years of age and Birla is the only Indian among the top 10 billionaires, according to a statement.
But none of them was anywhere near American computer magnate Michael Dell, who topped Fortune's separate list of the United States' richest 40 people under the age of 40.
Dell, 37, has wealth of $16.49 billion.
Eight Chinese figured in Fortune's list of the world's 40 richest young people outside the United States.
The wealthiest among the Chinese was Yang Bin, who ranked 15th on the list and recently saw the share price of his orchid company Euro-Asia Agriculture flounder.
Yang, 39, has riches amounting to some $900 million.
Russia was home to the richest young tycoon on the list and four others, the second highest number from any country.
Topping the list of 40 was Mikhail Khodorkovsky of Russia's second-largest oil company Yukos with a fortune of $7.2 billion.
Four people on the list were from Britain, the third most prolific country in terms of producing rich young people.
Billionaires from Japan, India and Hong Kong also figured in the top ten.
Ernesto Bertarelli of Swiss biotech company Serono was number two on the list with $4.7 billion, followed by Stefan Quandt of Germany's luxury car maker BMW and investment vehicle Delton with $4.5 billion.
Japan's Hiroshi Mikitani of online shopping mall Rakuten was sixth with $2.2 billion.
It was the first time Fortune had put together a list of some of the richest people under the age of 40 outside of the United States, a task it said was by no means easy.
Calculating their wealth was tough and some candidates did not make the cut because the magazine could not place a value on their assets, Fortune said.
"So while we cannot claim to have the 40 wealthiest people in the world outside the US under the age of 40, we do have 40 of the richest," Fortune said.
Last on the list, to be published in the magazine's September 16 issue, was Wang Yusuo of China's Xinao Gas, who boasts a cool $138 million at just 38.

In a new report titled 'Demystifying Green Infrastructure', the UK-GBC sets out the benefits of implementing green infrastructure within the built environment such as the potential increase in the value of land and property.
The report also outlines potential risks from failing to incorporate appropriate green infrastructure into building projects, including increased costs and planning delays, as well as risk of flooding and loss of habitat.
Several cities and towns across the UK are beginning to embrace green infrastructure within the built environment.
For example, Brighton boasts a green wall 1.2km long on Madeira Drive that's been designated a local wildlife site – the only site of its kind in the UK.
Bristol, the 2015 European Green Capital city, has seen Mayor, George Ferguson roll out the world's first 'One Tree Per Child' initiative, which will see that all of Bristol's 36,000 primary school pupils given a chance to plant at least one tree as part of a global initiative.
"Planting trees and shrubs is a great way for school children to connect to the environment and their local community. As a child's tree grows, their commitment to the environment and their local community grows as well," said Ferguson.
London has its share of green infrastructure too, with over 700 green roofs covering an area equivalent to more than 25 football pitches (175,000sq m).
Living roofs plan an important role in helping to achieve Mayor, Boris Johnson's target to increase green cover in Central London by five per cent by 2030.
Sunsquare continues to play an important part in the development of green living roofs having supplied a host of its walk-on rooflights to architects and developers across the capital and the South East. They provide a perfect solution for those who desire a sustainable roof terrace whilst enhancing levels of natural light in the interior below.
The Horizon walk-on range also offers industry-leading energy efficiency. The products are manufactured from our own extruded aluminium profile which is truly thermally broken with two polyamide insulating sections to minimise heat loss and condensation in the interiors below.
