Down south, 8.81 inches fell on average across the entire state of Texas, which made May the wettest month on record for the state — blowing away the previous record of June 2004 by over 2 inches. The rest of the top five statewide records are all within less than a ¼-inch of each other.emphasis added. This sort of outlier can't be attributed to any cause, but it sure doesn't look normal. How many of this sort of thing do we need before we get the message?
Climate change is not just about severe events. It's also about unprecedented events. For which, by definition, there are no statistics at all.
It was also the wettest month on record for the contiguous states, but not by such a strange margin.

Special Olympics
The Special Olympics of Virginia is the state program of Special Olympics Incorporated, whose mission is "to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for all children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in the sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community."
Center for Sport Leadership volunteers
Since 2005, Center for Sport Leadership students have volunteered at various Special Olympics competitions such as alpine skiing, basketball, bowling, volleyball, golf and swimming, as well as its annual fundraiser, the Polar Plunge.
Interacting with the athletes has been very rewarding for students such as Andy Farrell, who said "It was a great experience. The smiles on the athletes' faces really made it worthwhile! One athlete told us that he loved us and we were his best friends after he received his first place ribbon. You can't put a price tag on things like that!"
The Center for Sport Leadership continues its service-learning opportunities with the Special Olympics, finding more ways to get involved each year.

Sometimes in life you need a little balance. In my case Joe is my balance, well there is not enough room for two attention whores, creative temperaments or bloggers in one family. We are also different in our outlook, it can be said that I lean towards the more profit of doom end of the outlook scale. I like to think of it as being prepared and realistic, others say I am a pessimist. So I ask you this are you a glass is half full kind of person, or a glass is half empty? Today I am substituting glass for mug.
An incredibly easy craft, one for even the most anti craft person to undertake. Step one; choose a pair of mugs with a shape you love. Step two; label them accordingly with a ceramic maker. Step three; write a little surprise inside the mug as illustrated below.

I don't like lovebugs. In fact, I'll go as far to say I *HATE* lovebugs. I'm not scared of them like I am of bees. But, I can't stand them. I had never heard of them until we moved here. I experienced my first lovebug "attack" as I was driving down the highway and all of a sudden BOOM BOOM BOOM, they were splattering all over my windshield. EW! I didn't know much about lovebugs, so I didn't realize that I should go through a car wash as soon as possible. A week later, it was miserable trying to get them off.
The next time love bugs came back out earlier this year, I did a little research. I found this which made my stomach churn: The male and female attach themselves at the rear of the abdomen and remain that way at all times, even in flight. In fact, after mating, the male dies and is dragged around by the female until she lays her eggs. This is from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_bug
So, these bugs are ATTACHED as they fly around. Just EW!!!! They don't sting, they don't bite, but they do land on you while ATTACHED!!!!
If you ever move to the Gulf Coast… watch out! And don't wear white!!!

About Tivab
New Arrival
Tivab replied to Tivab's topic in General Colonial Charter DiscussionThanks a lot for your reply. I attach a saved game for replicating this problem, together with 3 illustrative screenshots. There are 3 default "small chapels" (Banished) in the game. I add a larger "chapel" (CC) and assign a priest to it. Now I stop one of the 3 small chapels. All the members of this small chapel move to the new CC chapel nearby. Until now everything is ok. But as soon as I give order to destroy the small chapel, which is now empty and not working, the remaining 2 small chapels which are still working start to show "overload arrows" although all the members of the deleted small chapel are now in the new CC chapel (and it is not full). The saved game shows the situation immediately after the moment when I ordered to destroy the abandoned small chapel, as you can see on the icons. BTW, exactly the same happens with schools on my system. When I have 2 or 3 default schools and I add the CC school (oneroom), the default schools will show overload arrows, not recognizing the pupils attending the CC school. 1.zip
Tivab posted a topic in General Colonial Charter DiscussionFirst of all, many thanks to the makers of the CC Mod! I love it very much, it adds so much value to the game. My question: I have the latest versions of Banished and CC (via Steam). I observe the school of the CC mod as well as the church do not synchronize with the default school/churches of the game. Example: When I already have 2 or 3 default (original) schools and chapels within the game and I add another one from the CC mod, the default buildings will not recognize the added (and used) capacity of the CC church/school buildings but will continue to show "overload arrows" all the time, without recognizing the added church/school of the CC mod. Is there a solution for this?

3D Vision fix for BlazBlue Centralfiction. I have put a lot more time and effort than in the fix of the previous games.
UPDATE FOR v2.00 HOTFIX 2 (LET'S CALL IT v2.02)
With the new patch (2017-10-03), I found that the game broke again the characters eyes (when blinking) shader. I fixed it again.
(OLDER) UPDATE FOR v2.00 HOTFIX (LET'S CALL IT v2.01)!!!
Today (2017-09-28) a new update has been released that fixed some bugs (like the stages with TVs). This patch broke the main characters shader, so I fixed it again. Download the fix in the installation steps, as always.
(OLDER) UPDATE (v2.0)!!!
With the 2.0 version of the game (that introduced Jubei as a playable character), I needed to fix an HUD shader related to the freeze time ability of Izanami. I currently don't have the Jubei DLC, but I hope it doesn't need a fix. Tell me about it if it does. Download the fix in the installation steps, as always.
(OLDER) NEWEST NEWEST UPDATE (v1.06)!!!
Another game update. This time I had to fix Arakune again (it was unaffected by the sprite blurring options before). The newest fix is in the installation steps, as always.
(OLDER) NEWEST UPDATE, IMPORTANT (v1.05)!!!
The game has received a new update (v1.05) on 2017-06-21, with new graphics options (like native 2560x1440 and 3840x2160 rendering, as well as sprites filtering options) that broke the fix. I had to fix some HUD elements for higher than 1080p resolutions and also character sprites.
The new download link is in the installation steps. No new screenshots in this post.
(OLDER) UPDATE, IMPORTANT (v1.04)!!!
As of game update v1.04, the game now uses the D3D9EX API and it also broke the main characters sprite shader. I have updated it in the installation steps (it also includes extra depth steps imported from the updated Chronophantasma Extend fix).
This new version of the game fixed the exclusive fullscreen problem. Use 1920x1080 in fullscreen now.
For game versions v1.03 and below, the fix was this file.
For game version v1.04, the fix was this file.
For game version v1.05, the fix was this file.
For game version v1.06, the fix was this file.
For game version v2.00, the fix was this file.
For game version v2.00 Hotfix 1, it was this file.
- All HUD/movies/interface at the sprites base depth for consistency (it depends on separation and convergence).
- All characters and their effects (reflections, lighting, transparency) at depth, depending on separation and convergence. Also, in this fix sprites can have variable depth that depends on their shader depth value, in 19 manually calculated steps (for camera zoom in and zoom out). The steps switching will be less noticeable if you use the low convergence preset.
- Bloom leaks no more at the sides of the screen (it was a side effect of putting some HUD/Izayoi effects at depth).
Remaining issues
- The Izayoi sword trail effect doesn't have the same depth information as the sprites, so it can only be at the sprites base depth. That means that if you walk near the corners of the screen you will see that it's at a slightly different depth.
- Some effects in the story mode (visual novel parts) add depth to a layer on top of previously added depth for another effect (transitions, some black and white moments, etc). If you find that annoying, use the F3 hotkey to have most of the interface at screen depth, or just play those parts in 2D.
- Somehow, the Network -> D-Code Edit -> Title and Quick MSG texts (also the Duel Field stage text) are invisible when the main HUD shader is used in the fix. You can still edit those texts without problems.
- The Colosseum and Duel Field stages have TVs. They will look mostly correct with the F3 preset, but not with any other convergence. I had to make the choice between fixing that or Hakumen symbols in battle (I chose Hakumen. The other option also broke some HUD elements).
- Use Nvidia Profile Inspector and add "BBCF.exe" to the "3D-Hub Player" profile (edit: NOT NEEDED SINCE GAME VERSION 1.04). For better sprites and general image quality, set "Antialiasing - Mode" to "Enhance the application setting" and "Antialiasing - Transparency Supersampling" to "8x Sparse Grid Supersampling". It's VERY recommended to do that. Do what you want with "Texture filtering - LOD Bias (DX)", depending on your sharpness/blurriness taste.
- Download this file and extract its contents in the root folder of the game ("BlazBlue Centralfiction"), where "BBCF.exe" is. Use 7-zip for that.
- After booting the game, the game window will resize itself to fake fullscreen (if you don't use the now working exclusive fullscreen). Mash the F1 to F3 keys because sometimes the fix doesn't load properly until you do that.
- F1: low convergence.
- F2: medium convergence.
- F3: exact convergence for HUD and sprites (when the camera is neutral) at screen depth.

Hailed by critics and fans alike as the 'Guitar Event Of The Year,' the multi-artist celebration known as the Experience Hendrix Tour is set to return. These special concert performances present legendary artists who join together to pay homage to Jimi Hendrix. This next edition of the Experience Hendrix Tour will encompass twenty seven performances this coming February and March, stopping in more than two dozen cities along the east coast, midwest and southern states. Now in its second decade, the tour celebrates the musical genius of Jimi Hendrix by bringing together a diverse array of extraordinary musicians, ranging from blues legend Buddy Guy to Black Label Society and former Ozzy Osbourne guitarist Zakk Wylde, as well as Jonny Lang, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Eric Johnson, Dweezil Zappa and many others. Billy Cox, bassist for both the Jimi Hendrix Experience and Band of Gypsys, anchors a rhythm section that provides the foundation for exciting renditions of such signature Hendrix favorites as "Purple Haze" and "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)".

Béla Bartók
Bartók is my favourite 20th century composer, and I believe he was the greatest composer of the century. This is not an opinion shared by the majority of critics, who persistently rank him below Stravinsky, Schoenberg, Webern and probably Messaien, and he's frequently overlooked in lists of the 20th century greats. I'm always suspicious that this is as much for ideological as musical reasons: Bartók adhered to no explicit theory, belonged to no school, and rejected serialism which is still very influential. Sometimes he's patronised as a mere collector of folk-tunes, as though he lacked original tunes of his own. I find most of Bartók's music beautiful, some of it frightening, but all of it exciting, because he had a feeling for rhythm unmatched by any other modern composer, and that includes Stravinsky. He had a feeling for rhythm that's only found otherwise among African and jazz musicians, and to me his nearest rivals are Mingus and Ellington. (Rhythms as well as melodies were what he collected on field trips in Transylvania and Romania).
In fact, I first came to Bartók not through classical music at all, but because back in 1963 I read in a biography that Charlie Parker had liked his music, and so set out to hear some for myself.The piece that hooked me for life was the 2nd Violin Concerto heard on a cheap Hungarophon LP, but in later years I had the luck to attend performances by both Isaac Stern and Itzak Perlman. (I also saw George Solti's farewell performance, of the Concerto for Orchestra).Bartók's opera Bluebeard's Castle is the masterpiece of Expressionist music-drama, but though I've seen it twice on stage in London I didn't find either production satisfying. The BBC's 1988 TV production with Robert Lloyd as Bluebeard is the best staging I've seen, and my favourite recordings are the Walter Berry/Christa Ludwig, the Fischer-Dieskau/Julia Varady and the 1999 Grammy-winner with Jesse Norman. I was in the Queen Elizabeth Hall in 2001 when the Emerson Quartet played all six of Bartók's string quartets in one evening, and if that sounds like cruel-and-unusual-punishment or pure machismo, actually it was sublime (I'll do it again given the chance).
Bartók (like Richard Strauss) chose not to abandon the directly emotional effects of Romantic harmony, but rather to push them into new territories -indeed his strange tonalities can sometimes make you feel what seem like wholly novel emotions. When I first acquired a portable CD player I discovered to my amazement that listening to Bartók in the open air is not only a great pleasure, but makes enormous sense of the music. To me there's something about the granularity of his rhythms and the way they interact with his harmonies that seem to "fit" the fractal aspects of nature - branching trees, mountain screes, scudding clouds, falling water. That isn't to say that it's in any sense "program music" - the effect is some kind of structural analogy rather than symbolism. If you don't believe me, try listening to the 2nd Violin Concerto on top of a mountain, or the Adagio from his 3rd Piano Concerto in the Burren in the rain. I keep a lot of his solo piano music, including chunks of Microcosmos, on my Palm Treo and often just sit on a bench on the Heath or Regent's Park to listen to two or three pieces.
Bartók lead an eventful life, dying in poverty-striken exile in New York, of leukemia, in 1945, the year I was born. That same year Charlie Parker played with Dizzy Gillespie, Max Roach and Bud Powell at New York Town Hall to great acclaim. Imagine that Bartók had met his admirer Parker (and had been able to communicate across the language barrier!) Then Charlie Parker with Strings might have taken Western music in a whole new direction. In "Coming out top", a 1994 review of Malcolm Gillies "Bartok Companion" in the London Review of Books, Paul Driver makes the case for Bartok's Concerto For Orchestra as the greatest 20th century musical work.
A very short and rare clip of Bartok playing a fragment from his 1911 Allegro Barbaro from YouTube:
A short extract from a recording of Zóltan Székely playing Violin Concerto 2 at its first performance in 1939:
Martha Argerich playing the marvellous 3rd Piano Concerto:
Here's a selection of good Bartok performances as a Spotify playlist.

Once upon a time, I went thrifting for the first time in the year. We went to Consign Divine and found THIS ammmaaaaazing couch! I am pretty sure I'd be the coolest kid on the block with this couch!!
Plus I found THIS amazing shirt that I wanted to wear as a dress. The beading was just so grand and the shirt moved so well. I ended up not buying it though for I got a coat in replacement... I miss you so great shirt!!
Yes, I wore my tank top backwards. Well, it's 'cause I felt like it, okay? but I probably won't do it again. My family thought it was weird. I just liked the strange architecture at the neck. I supposed it could be better if the top was made to be worn with strange architecture in the front, instead of making it myself. Well, I enjoyed myself in it so :P *raspberry*
This bracelet my sis found on the ground. If it's yours, oops, I'll give it back because it's really awesome, but hey, you dropped it!

AOL Sessions - Trespassing Promo
Adam sounds incredible and looks fantastic despite my mild aversion to leopardskin. I'm so happy to get such a good quality recording of a live performance, even though there's a bit of distortion on the drums. The band sound tight and the backing singers are harmoniously great. Throughout the set we get all the big notes sung higher than what we've had on recent performances. I'm so glad the camera isn't fixated with a band member like the last time.
There are funny expressions aplenty as Adam enjoys goofing it up on Cuckoo. I really like the way it sounds here, very discoey without going overboard on the effects. It's also nice to have a version that's uninterrupted by the band intros. Naked Love continues to be a grower but I still think the abrupt ending needs a tweak. Broken English is such an enchanting song inhabited by a beautifully wailing banshee and his voice is a supernatural phenomenon. Love it.
I've included the interview here as Adam gives some interesting answers. He sounds hoarse like he's lost his voice a bit though. Enjoy!

Thanks so much for the write-up! Can't comment on the band as my ears do not pick up that stuff very well (unfortunately). But have to say that I love the back up singers. They have beautiful voices, the harmonies are rich, they sound wonderful together with Adam. Enjoyed the clear sound for the first time on these sessionsReplyDelete
Love the new version of WWFM! And love the slow ending to Cuckoo. Broken English is tremendous!
As to Naked Love, his voice is so joyous on this song. I always have a big smile on my face listening to it! That's what he wanted, didn't he? Don't want to be negative, but it's from the same writers as Move Like Jagger. I can't help thinking that that song would have sounded a million times better if Adam had sung it!
Sorry for rambling, super stoked about Adam topping The Billboard!
It's a pleasure! I like that the backing singers have voices that have comparable power and appreciate the energy they add.Delete
Yes, moves like Jagger is a fantastic song and I agree that Adam would've done a tremendous job laying his vocals on it.
Very proud that Adam debuted on top too!

The Obama administration this week will begin the task of trying to persuade Congress to support its plan to shut down the prison in Guantánamo Bay before the president leaves office in January.
Republican lawmakers all too often have been reflexive and thoughtless in their opposition to closing Guantánamo, one of the most shameful chapters in America's recent history. Closing the prison by the end of the year is feasible. It would make the United States safer, help restore America's standing as a champion of human rights and save taxpayers millions of dollars.
In recent weeks, the Pentagon and the State Department have made considerable progress toward the goal of further reducing the number of inmates at Guantánamo, which stands at 91. Of those inmates, the government expects to resettle 35 in other countries by this summer.

Here's a sample of our volunteer opportunities:VIEW AS
Mission Statement
Every child deserves the chance to succeed, yet studies show that children from low-income neighborhoods are at a greater risk of school failure. Jumpstart is a national early education organization that helps these children develop the language and literacy skills they need to be successful in school, setting them on a path to close the achievement gap before it is too late.
Jumpstart is the only national supplemental preschool program of its kind. We recruit and train college students and community volunteers to serve children living in low-income neighborhoods. The heart of our program is this relationship between caring adults the children they serve. Jumpstart's curriculum is designed to help children achieve significant gains in key language and literacy skills. We measure our success and evaluate our impact in three primary ways. On average, children show gains of more than a full developmental level--30% in overall school readiness.

In Henri Cartier-Bresson's Behind the Gare Saint-Lazare (http://100photos.time.com/photos/henri-cartier-bresson-behind-gare-saint-lazare if there is a pivotal point in the image, I would say it is the tiny gap between the heel of the leaping figure, and the reflection of their heel, in the water below them.
While there are many other elements to the image, stories being told, questions being asked …'Who is the other figure and what is he doing?' 'What is the time on the clock?' 'Why is this area flooded?' 'Why is it fenced off?' 'What is being built/demolished?' …The gap, between heel and reflected heel asks the biggest question of all.
What is the world like, in this moment, before this heel joins with its reflection, and what will it be like a moment from now? It is a clear and obvious moment of transition. Something will change and be other than how it was.
The information in this image… the story, if you like, is fairly self-evident to the viewer. This is not always the case with photographs.
Rinko Kawauchi's untitled image from the cover of Iluminance https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2011/dec/07/deutsche-borse-prize-photography-2012 contains information… There is a rose, it is brightly lit and over-exposed. There may or may not be other flowers in the background. The overall colour of the scene is a rich deep red. If there is a story here, though, it is not self-evident, so if we want one, we must make it up ourselves.
Is there a pivotal point? Certainly the rose is the object that draws my eye back to it, but it tells me nothing, other than that it is there. Much is suggested… light is bright, but is it natural, or artificial? Is it there by chance, or placed deliberately by the photographer? What object is creating that green 'bokeh ball' on the right? Is it in the sky, like the moon, or something closer?

Monday, 1 February 2016
Hello February! Depressing January is finished. Actually it went very quickly for me. I am back at work - and it is good to have my routine back on track and feeling a bit independent. However it has also been hard to be back where I used to go, working with the people I used to know, not knowing who I am anymore. My work used to excite me, working with all sorts of people (albeit mostly men - thank you glass ceiling), managing to push through ideas. But now I am back in the same culture with the same people, working on the same issues - when I have been on a steep learning curve about everything (except work). I will not make a rash decision about this - it is easy to come back, reactivate my network (not so easy to tell them why I was gone for so long though) and do what is expected of you (without thinking too much about it). I know it is not a long term solution, but a stable medium-term solution.
And I am comforted after talking to friends and colleagues who seem to go through a sort of mid-life crisis in a major way, and are more lost than I am. To be fair, I have read a few magazines in the last week (a business travelling delight) and found that everyone is talking about the fact that women should be happy and why we are not. So no wonder my friends are feeling fragile. They have a full life, and have been going at it for the last 10 years, the career, the husband (still there or not anymore), the kids etc. and now they are in therapy (not all my friends but some). At least they have a way of dealing with this period. I will keep drinking my green juice, go back to healthy eating, crafting and reading about creating meaningful moments and surrounding myself with meaningful objects (and keep my matching underwear in check).
I carried on with my (future) clutter free home, and kept a sixth of my clothes - and oh it felt good - soooo gooood, and it feels amazing in the morning as well. It has also energised me for craft projects. I can see what I like to wear now, the finishing I prefer. It is a great experience. And I cannot wait to start with my kitchen - and get rid of it all. Now Mr MiH is really scared. He can see I am on a roll, and that this little machine is not slowing down.
Except when I am knitting of course. I may have over committed myself recently and be quite upset about it (hence not a little post to go on about last week). It feels like my craft time ( ie dedicated to projects for myself or my family) is non-existent. I find it highly frustrating but being it all down to my own decisions, there is not a lot I can do - just suck it up and get on with it. Mr MiH asked whether there was a lesson to be learnt here, I just looked in anger at his smug face, because he is right there is a lesson, but stating the obvious is not helping right now. I made a schedule to allocate time to my projects, so hopefully these can be shared here soon.
Depressing January is gone, welcome cold February! And travelling. We will be in the Netherlands this weekend - did I tell you that Mr MiH used to work there - and to France for our annual skiing trip (with in situ babysitting facilities, of the best kind, aka my parents!). Exciting times! Who is excited about February?
This photo was taken during the same one day of snow we had in January. I maximised on the opportunity, and took as many pictures as I could - in case I needed them for the blog because you never know when a picture of snow is needed.

At the Atlanta C# Study Group last night, there were a few discussions that I couldn't help but chime in on. Granted, I was focused on getting my expense report done for the month, but a couple topics were discussed that I wanted to post follow-up content for.
- Developers see SOAP as "Simple OBJECT Access Protocol". That is, instead of thinking about messages, people still see web services as a simplified RPC mechanism. I love what Christian had to say about this. Sure, Christian, blame it on the tools.
- Michael Earls did a really cool demo of creating a generic add-in programming model. While there have been a number of articles on plug-in frameworks before, and the demo was fairly similar to what is found in the Exception Management Application Block, the cool part was that he used the SoapEnvelope type from WSE 2.0 as the message store. He was able to augment the message using headers, and you can conceive some of the cool stuff that is possible with this model given the capabilities of WSE 2.0.
- For those who hadn't heard, TryParse was added to the value types in version 2.0 of the .NET Framework. TryParse is available in 1.0 and 1.1 versions of the framework on the Double method (double.TryParse), but is added to the other value types as well.
- There was discussion around the C# keywords "as" and "is" as well as casting. You can use "as" to test if a type is another type and it will return null instead of throwing an exception. Using "is" tests if the type is supported, but likely requires a secondary cast to access the type (as shown in the examples for each).
What a great group the Atlanta C# Study Group is. The attendance was low and the people who attended it were obviously very proficient in C#, yielding some of the best geek-out discussion on programming that I have had in awhile. Highly recommended for those in the Atlanta area, even worth a drive in from out of town.

Go Daddy has created a handy tool that simplifies the process of adding a custom domain to your blogger.com based blog(s).
Until, now setting one up, was an frustrating experience, especially for those who aren't quite sure of the difference between an A-NAME and C-NAME record or where to find them. The new Go Daddy tool makes it possible to redirect your blogspot domain to a custom Go Daddy domain with the click of a button, revealed Brett Wiltshire, Product Operations, Blogger.com.
"If you already own a Go Daddy domain and would like to connect it with your Blogger blog, head to the Go Daddy tool, log in to your Go Daddy account, enter your preferred domain or subdomain (for instance www.example.com or blog.example.com), click Confirm, and voila, your DNS records are updated.
Once your DNS records are set correctly, log in to Blogger, click "Add a custom domain" in the Publishing section of the Settings page, follow the short instructions, and your custom domain will be set up and redirecting in 24 hours or less," Wiltshire explained.
If you purchased a domain from other provider, you can follow this step-by-step guide that walk you through the setup process.
Also, if you don't own a domain, and would like your blog to redirect to a "custom domain," you can now purchase one and get it set up without complicated configuration right from the Blogger dashboard in the Publishing section of the Settings page.

I remember way, way back in the day when I used to buy Freestylin' BMX Magazine to get my skate coverage because that's all I could get my hands on at the local store. The BMX mags used to support skating until it done blowed up and was able to survive on its own. We support BMX and one of our best employees rides BMX. In October, the 2nd Annual BMX Contest is going on. See you here.

regatta in SE Asia
28:01:2011 Once again the North East monsoon continued to blow throughout the night and 15 to 20 knots saw the fleet merrily set sail on a passage race between Batam and Bintan Islands. When the 2 meter swell is harnessed properly it provides wonderful surfing conditions but can also have the opposite effect on unwary crews that haven't strapped down the spinnaker sheets further forward and stop the kite from flailing around and overpowering the boat.
No such problems in the racing class as the dueling duo worked their way across the Singapore Straits shipping lanes and came surfing back, at times reaching 20 knots boat speed and the crew urging the skippers on for the extra adrenaline rush. A couple of big wind shifts and decrease in strength as the yachts closed in on the Malaysian coastline saw the advantage swing either way. Eventually swinging back in favour of Ray Roberts TP 52 Evolution Racing giving them the edge rounding Stapa mark first by a healthy margin. "That was the yacht race" said Jamie MacPhail back on the dock. "The rest was fantastic reaching and surfing the waves". Having now completed five races, today's result gives Ray Roberts TP 52 Evolution Racing a one win advantage over Neil Pryde's Hi Fi. With two more races to go and a drop race to come, we could well see a tie on points and the number of wins and second places. There has been some discussion on this matter already but I'm sure the International Jury headed by none other than America's Cup chairman Brian Willes and his team will be able to sort it out.
The battle between Sarab Jeet Singh's Sydney 40MOD Windsikher and Rick Pointon's J130 Jing Jing continued into the third day of competition. Three accidental gybes in less than a minute, left the Windsikher cockpit in disarray and the crew all shook up. Jing Jing pressed on and made substantial gains to be hot on Windsikher's transom by the end of the race. After handicaps have been applied Rick Pointon's Jing Jing takes the win by one and a half seconds and leaves Singh's Windsikher crew wondering what could have been and cursing their earlier mistakes. Hellmut Schutte's very powerful First 45 Aquavit 5 thrived on the longer waterline length in the lumpy seas to slot into third place after a shaky start to the regatta. This result leaves it to Windsikher and Jing Jing to fight it out for top spot on the final day of racing.
The heavier displacement yachts in the IRC C class made a meal out of the passage race, leaving the lighter Platu 25's in their wake. Another good steady performance on Adriaan Smit's X99 Power Partners saw them take out the daily double and rise to the top of the overall pointscore. Bob Ashman's Dehler 39 Simba thrived in the strong conditions to score second place today. Despite a Chinese gybe and being laid on their side for a few minutes, Gordon Maxted's Young 84 Shoon Fung Too slotted into third place. Until today Gregory Ho's SMUve was holding onto first overall but a subsequent protest saw them disqualified and hand over the lead to Adriaan Smit's Power Partners. As the Discard Race comes into play tomorrow Gregory Ho's SMUve will be back in the running and as windward/leewards are his favourite, they will be looking to make amends for today's disappointment.
Again the three one design J24 yachts were locked together half way through the race, until Calvin Lim's Shengli dropped of the pace. This left Christopher Lim's Jangan Main Main and A. Wahab's Nova to fight it out to the finish. Only forty seconds separated Jangan Main Main and Nova as they crossed the line in that order. Calvin Lim's Shengli survived a protest to keep third place way in front of I. Wayan Rusdiana's Merdeka in fourth. With five wins under their belt it will take a catastrophe of sizable proportions to stop Christopher Lim's Jangan Main Main from winning the title.
In the PY class Malcolm Chang's brand new Oceanis 46 Charlotte's Web came to the fore to get the better of Deanna Adams Beneteau QI. Although in the overall stakes Deanna Adams QI has a two point advantage going into the final day of racing.
The schedule for the last day is two windward/leeward races followed by the gala dinner and prize presentation at Nongsa Point Marina. We can expect more of the same heavy going and after consulting with the sailors have decided with out a doubt that this regatta is the windiest event in SE Asia this season.

Nicholas Nixon (born 1947 in Detroit, Michigan) is known for the ease and intimacy of his black and white large format photography. Nixon has photographed porch life in the rural south, schools in and around Boston, cityscapes, sick and dying people, the intimacy of couples, and the ongoing annual portrait of his wife, Bebe, and her three sisters (which he began in 1975).
Recording his subjects close and with meticulous detail facilitates the connection between the viewer and the subject. Nixon has been awarded three National Endowment for the Arts Fellowships and two Guggenheim Fellowships. In 2005 Nixon had a solo exhibition at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. and the Cincinnati Art Museum. In 2006, Nixon's ongoing portrait of the Brown sisters was exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, New York and the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, Texas. In 2010, the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston exhibited Nicholas Nixon: Family Album, through May 2011. In Summer 2013 Nixon's book Close Far was released by Steidl. The body of work explores the relationship of the self in physical and psychological proximity to the urban landscape. Nixon's work is included in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, among many others.
About the The Brown Sisters's serie :
Nicholas Nixon was visiting his wife's family when, "on a whim," he said, he asked her and her three sisters if he could take their picture. It was summer 1975, and a black-and-white photograph of four young women — elbows casually attenuated, in summer shirts and pants, standing pale and luminous against a velvety background of trees and lawn — was the result. A year later, at the graduation of one of the sisters, while readying a shot of them, he suggested they line up in the same order. After he saw the image, he asked them if they might do it every year. "They seemed O.K. with it," he said; thus began a project that has spanned almost his whole career. The series, which has been shown around the world over the past four decades, will be on view at the Museum of Modern Art, coinciding with the museum's publication of the book "The Brown Sisters: Forty Years" in November.
Who are these sisters? We're never told (though we know their names: from left, Heather, Mimi, Bebe and Laurie; Bebe, of the penetrating gaze, is Nixon's wife). The human impulse is to look for clues, but soon we dispense with our anthropological scrutiny — Irish? Yankee, quite likely, with their decidedly glamour-neutral attitudes — and our curiosity becomes piqued instead by their undaunted stares. All four sisters almost always look directly at the camera, as if to make contact, even if their gazes are guarded or restrained.

Read more poems by Delmore Schwartz: Delmore Schwartz Poems at Poetry X.
Is the spider a monster in miniature? His web is a cruel stair, to be sure, Designed artfully, cunningly placed, A delicate trap, carefully spun To bind the fly (innocent or unaware) In a net as strong as a chain or a gun. There are far more spiders than the man in the street supposes And the philosopher-king imagines, let alone knows! There are six hundred kinds of spiders and each one Differs in kind and in unkindness. In variety of behavior spiders are unrivalled: The fat garden spider sits motionless, amidst or at the heart Of the orb of its web: other kinds run, Scuttling across the floor, falling into bathtubs, Trapped in the path of its own wrath, by overconfidence drowned and undone. Other kinds - more and more kinds under the stars and the sun - Are carnivores: all are relentless, ruthless Enemies of insects. Their methods of getting food Are unconventional, numerous, various and sometimes hilarious: Some spiders spin webs as beautiful As Japanese drawings, intricate as clocks, strong as rocks: Others construct traps which consist only Of two sticky and tricky threads. Yet this ambush is enough To bind and chain a crawling ant for long enough: The famished spider feels the vibration Which transforms patience into sensation and satiation. The handsome wolf spider moves suddenly freely and relies Upon lightning suddenness, stealth and surprise, Possessing accurate eyes, pouncing upon his victim with the speed of surmise. Courtship is dangerous: there are just as many elaborate and endless techniques and varieties As characterize the wooing of more analytic, more introspective beings: Sometimes the male Arrives with the gift of a freshly caught fly. Sometimes he ties down the female, when she is frail, With deft strokes and quick maneuvres and threads of silk: But courtship and wooing, whatever their form, are informed By extreme caution, prudence, and calculation, For the female spider, lazier and fiercer than the male suitor, May make a meal of him if she does not feel in the same mood, or if her appetite Consumes her far more than the revelation of love's consummation. Here among spiders, as in the higher forms of nature, The male runs a terrifying risk when he goes seeking for the bounty of beautiful Alma Magna Mater: Yet clearly and truly he must seek and find his mate and match like every other living creature!

While it's no longer de rigueur to quote the Bible, especially here in the yoga-chic, spiritual, eco-humanist Mecca of Vancouver, now might be a good time for people fuming about real-estate prices in the city to reacquaint themselves with the Good Book, specifically its admonitions about the dangers of envy.
It's right there in the Ten Commandments, which include (in some variation): "You shall not covet your neighbour's house …" It also warns about not coveting your neighbour's wife, servants, ox, donkey, "nor anything that is your neighbour's," which in Vancouver, one presumes, must also mean their Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Bentleys, Maseratis or even Mercedes, if those are even considered a luxury car anymore in this cash-dripping metropolis.
Let's face it, envy is driving much of the public discussion about home prices in Vancouver, especially when it comes to real or suspected foreign buyers.
People come up with all sorts of arguments to oppose the buying habits of certain classes of real-estate investors but when you get to the bottom of it, they are really just saying, "That person has a house that I should be able to afford but can't and I'm really angry about it."
Well, boo hoo. Welcome to life.
Vision Coun. Geoff Meggs personified this uniquely Vancouver, juvenile attitude in December while being interviewed by a Canadian Press reporter, saying, "I'm offended, as everybody else is, by the thought that someone has so much money they can buy a house and just sit and speculate on the land value."
Everybody is offended? Really? What Meggs is actually saying is that like all good socialists he is offended by wealthy people, which he is entitled to say, but it's a silly opinion and he certainly shouldn't speak for everyone.
I wonder if all the wealthy developers who finance Vision know that Meggs is so offended by them and their industry? And how does he feels about his wealthy boss, the mayor, who owns (or owned) property that sits empty most weeks of the year? I guess it's OK if one of your buddies does it.
This same covetousness is also partly behind the recent protest about plans by the owner of a 20-year-old house on Adera Street to demolish it and build something more luxurious.
They claim to be upset by the waste of knocking down a perfectly good house, but resentment that someone wants an even fancier home is behind the protest.
I'm sorry, but it's not clear why anyone thinks they have the right to tell anyone what they must do with their private property, within the law, of course. Frankly, these people have a lot of nerve.
Do we really want to live in a society where bullies get to stick their noses into other people's private affairs? I sure don't.
The Province has reported extensively on shady, complex real-estate transactions. But the Globe and Mail's breathless investigation a few days ago into house flipping involving "assignment clauses" — and the reaction by NDP housing critic David Eby and others — had me shaking my head.
Assignment clauses are common and there is noting illegal about them. They are similar to stock options or futures trading. The notion that they are being "abused" is ridiculous; they are simply being used, as they often are during rising real-estate markets.
Some people, Eby apparently, are simply offended that people are making money from the buying and selling of real estate. But real-estate speculators can lose money — sometimes lots of it. They are the ones taking the risk, which should mean that their deals, so long as they are lawful, are nobody else's business. We shouldn't forget that just because housing costs are rising.
We are warned not to covet, theologians say, so that we won't be tempted to take sinful action to obtain things that don't belong to us. Recent hints by the provincial government that they plan to interfere with the real-estate market sound like just that kind of improper action driven by people's envy.
In attempting to win political favour from one group (those wishing for lower housing prices) by levying new taxes or other restrictions, Victoria risks harming the equity of thousands of property owners. It's not clear how hurting one group to help another is good policy or fair.
That's not to say that Victoria and Ottawa shouldn't crack down on other real-estate scams we've learned about in recent days, especially fraudulent use of fake addresses to hide money laundering or misconduct by a few realtors. Slam the crooks, but leave the market alone.

statistics.bgwoodruff.com > Here
I created this page as a way to introduce the "backward" way of thinking adopted by the Hypothesis Testing Model of Inferential Statistics. I have avoided most technical terminology, choosing to focus on the concepts of the null and alternative hypotheses.
Simple Visual Reaction Time (SVRT) is the length of time it takes to respond to a visual stimulus. The simplest situation: (1) the participant's finger is poised over a button; (2) the subject is looking at a small light; (3) the subject is instructed to press the button as soon as the light comes on; (4) the reaction time is the length of time between when the light came on and the button was pressed; (5) the SVRT is the average reaction time over several hundred trials.
Do males and females have the same Simple Visual Reaction Time?
Randomly select 4 college aged males and females. Measure the reaction time on each subject.
The Female particpants had an average SVRT of 0.179 seconds. The males had an average SVRT of 0.190 seconds. Typically simple reaction times are expressed in milliseconds (ms), so the results are an average female reaction time of 190 ms and an average male reaction time of 179 ms; that is, the average female reaction time was 11 ms longer than the average male reaction time1. These results are depicted here:
For these 8 subjects, the 11 ms difference in SVRT is a fact--the 11 ms difference is a descriptive statistic.
Here is the pertinent question: Is there a difference in the SVRT of males and females in general.?
The results we got could have arisen from two different situations.
The "Null Hypothesis" (Ho): On the average, males and females have the same reaction time. The true difference in SVRT for females and males is 0 ms (also known as a "null" difference). The 11 ms difference in this group of subjects is simply random error or sampling error.
The "Alternativve Hypothesis" (Ha): On the average, males and females have different reaction times. The true difference in SVRT for females and males in not 0 ms. There is a difference in reaction times and the difference measured in this group of subjects
How can we decide which hypothesis (Ho vs Ha) corectly describes the difference in female and male Simple Visual Reaction Time? There are three possibilities:
1. Repeat the research with many randomly selected groups of subjects. Plot each result and interepret the results of many many replications.
2. Hire a consultant to look at the research results and tell you her opinion. The problem here is we don't have any idea of how often the consultant's opion is right or wrong. Of the last 100 jobs, how many times did she give advice that was later proven to be false?
3. Use inferential statistics.
Question: So, Ms Inferential Statistics, is there a difference in SVRT for males and females?
Answer: What would the results look like if there were no difference in RT for the sexes?
Question: OK, so.....?
Answer: Let's set up simulated experiments and repeat the experiment many times and see what the results look like. We can use the standard deviation from the results of your experiment to get an idea of scattered the scores are and arbitrarily set the sex difference to 0 ms.
Question: And...."
Answer: Here's the results we get for 100 replications of your experiment when we know the null hypothesis is true.Click the controller to watch as the research is replicated.
So, What do you think? Is the 11 ms difference true of people in general (Ha) or does it appear that there really isn't a difference in RT between the sexes?
As you look at the completed replications you might decide that the 11 ms difference you actually truly measured could have come from the null-hypothesis situation. The data are not clearly, unambiguously showing a sex difference in RT. There might be a difference. There might not be a difference.
Now, change the situation slightly. Use a larger sample. Pretend your results (females: 190 ms; maes: 179 ms) was based on 9 or 25 subjects in each group Now complete 100 simulated replications for the situation where the null hypothesis is true.
n = 4 per group
n = 9 per group
n = 25 per group
The way I would interpret these results is as follows:
If I collected data on 4 subjects per group, I would conclude there is no evidence the "no difference" hypothesis is false. The data are the sort of results that could happen under "no difference.
If I collected data on 25 subjects per group, I would conclue there is evidence the "no difference" hypothesis is false. There really is a difference between female and male reaction times.
If I collected data using 9 subjects per group, I'd still have a rough time making a decision. That's why the decision making process has been refined whenever I use inferential statistics to decide whether or not a research result would be repeated with new groups of subjects. The refinements involve Type-I errors, Type-II errors, and decision rules. Other tutorials deal with these
1. There is a difference in SVRT in males and females. It is an easily replicated phenomenon. The difference is something like 15 or 20 ms with females having a longer reaction time.
Here is a way you can replicate the result with a minimum of equipment. All you need is a yard or meter stick and a smooth wall.

Take, for example, CSS. Suppose you have this document:

 <link rel="stylesheet" href="somestyles.css" type="text/css"/>

 <link rel="stylesheet" href="morestyles.css" type="text/css"/>

 Which styles apply to what, exactly? Is a "*" rule in somestyles.css implicitely converted to "#first *"? Would this affect specifity? I realize that this question is not really in the scope of HTML, but it still should be considered if the head isn't justified as a place for stuff that characterizes the document - anchors it within the larger structure so to say. A better example:

 <link rel="next" href="freaky.xhtml"/>

 <link rel="next" href="funky.xhtml"/>

 Should this be allowed? Is the first link only a continuation of the that section or the document? Should it, therefore, refer to #second? What are the semantics of this page.

Frequent Questions: What is dramming and dramming bottles?
Dramming is a term first introduced in the liquor business (hence Drambui, several hypothesize) specifically in whiskey distilleries as far back as the 15th century and dram might be derivative from drachma/δραχμή (Greek coin itself derived from δράττω, ie. grasp a handful) denoting amount of monetary value and thus specific volume. In some Scottish bars a 'dram' is taken to mean a large or double whisky and the fluid dram is one-eighth of a fluid ounce, hence "a small drink of liquor" (1713) [1] The term was also used as a an intransitive verb: 'To drink drams, to tipple' and as a transitive verb: 'to ply with drink'. Therefore dramming would be the practice of drinking drams of liquor. Free drams were passed around in distilleries to deter workers from pilfering.
On the other hand dram in the fragrance and cosmetics industryhas a different measure: a unit of apothecaries' weight, equal to 60 grains, or 1/8 ounce (3.89 grams) [2]. Dramming is meant for "refueling" as in "Thierry Mugler's star-shaped Angel bottle has a dramming unit with an airtight canister that contains 16.9 oz of fragrance" (incidentally that's about 510ml)—enough to refill the 2.6-oz bottle six times".
Dramming is defined as: "A technique for transferring a fragrance from a larger container to a smaller one. When stores have "dramming events" they are telling you that they have very large bottles of the fragrance, usually on display, that they will pour into a smaller one for you, usually in concert with special promotions". However please note the term "dram" in the decanting business (collectors who sell amounts of their own perfume collection) as well as the US medical field is a different still small amount: 1/16th of an ounce.
Guerlain specifically carried the brown apothecary style bottles in both Eau de Toilette and Parfum de Toilette concentration, as depicted here in both Shalimar (in PdT) and Jardins de Bagatelle (in EdT). Some of these bottles turn up online or in auctions and garage sales. Their original use would be to fill up samples for customers or refueling splash bottles at the stores. Due to sheer volume and unfrivolous presentation they represent great value for money for the collector interested in the perfume "juice". It is however worth keeping in mind that several alcoholic products by Guerlain such as mouth hygiene products for gargling, hair oils (stilboite) and muscle rub liquids came in seemingly unadorned bottles, so as always attention is needed when purchasing or collecting.
Other fragrance companies also use dramming units, such as for instance the Bond No. 9 New York Chinatown Dramming Unit valued at $3500.
Let it be said in passing that dramming bottles also circulate for popular cosmetics and skincare.

How fascinating, dearest E. I was of course familiar with the concept of "dram" but you have, as usual, shed light on a subject which is of interest to me as a life-long Guerlainista! Now, if only I could find one of those unadorned bottles......ReplyDelete
The breadth and depth of your knowledge never ceases to amaze me!
- Alexandra15:37
(gasp) 425ml!! I`m going to dream tonight Guerlain bottles of this size. Old Mitsouko or Guet Apens.ReplyDelete
I think I run across the use of drams the most with perfume oils.ReplyDelete
Buongiorno seniorita D! (I need to reply to your lovely mail shorly!)ReplyDelete
Thanks for your compliment, but I'm sure there are vast untapped depths of knowledge for me still.
yeah...talk about a whole lotta juice!
good point! I didn't think of it.
Perhaps it's because one would need a small amount for dilution? Or because they're super concentrated and potent?
I took the info on exact percentages from Encyclopedia Britannica. There are two measures cited. I wonder if there is some other used though, like you say. I think it has to do with actual sector of use.
