It isn't only in the USA that we have seen an increase in the number of women who are coming forward with complaints and allegations of sexual and/or physical harassment, abuse and intimidation.
The United Kingdom – who have a history of lecturing the world on integrity and moral fortitude – has also seen the same increase in allegations stretching a long way back.
Perhaps one difference is unlike what appears to be the case in the USA that following the Jimmy Saville case in the UK the number of complaints are equally divided between abuse of females and males.
Some going right to the top and heart of our Government over decades.
Which incidentally the paperwork recording the allegations made at the time that should have been under the watchful eye of our current Prime Minister when she was Home Secretary have mysteriously disappeared.
To be fair previous Home Secretaries of all political parties who have formed the Government since 1945 are also implicated in the protection and "cover-up" of allegations against the establishment hierarchy.
But it isn't the purpose of this blog – perhaps I'll return to it later – what has inspired – if that is the correct word – to write this is that I have just watched and listened to one of our Government Ministers saying we "need to empower women".
Let me explain this was a Minister in a Government who comes from a privileged inherited wealthy background, a white man who attended one of the most exclusive schools in the world – Eton – who has a record of parsimony, lying, cheating and objectifying women.
The perfect man to be a the top of Government and I suppose a mirror image of the President of the USA.
Now please don't get me wrong I absolutely believe that women should be empowered in order to maximise their talents, abilities and opportunities in all walks of life.
Where did this belief come from?
To put it simply it came from the women I have had in my life who every day of have empowered me to treat them with respect for what they have achieved and what they will achieve in the future.
I have been fortunate – and no I'm not being condescending – to have had my attitudes towards women formulated by incredible women in my formative years and especially a mother who married at seventeen having only known my father for ten days and with who went on to raise six children.
Our mother was also our father during long periods whilst he was away doing what a professional soldier who served throughout WW2 and afterwards in various theatres around the world did until his retirement from the army in 1964.
Her strength of character is legendary – as was her ability to wield a mean broomstick when the occasion arose – (please don't judge I got away with a lot more than I got caught for).
The point is she was an incredibly emotionally strong woman who raised five sons and one daughter.
It also helped that our father was a man who recognised how great mum was and what qualities she had which meant that between them they raised us to judge and accept people for their abilities, talents and characters irrespective of gender.
Our sister inherited mums characteristics but perhaps as important is that the brothers who have got married or entered into long term relationships have done so with women who are all strong women.
And yes, all the daughters and nieces are also strong empowered women.
It was – perhaps to my shame – when thinking of writing this that it dawned on me just how frightening they would be if confronted by anyone who wanted or even thought of taking advantage of them.
As for the sons and nephews they have also entered relationships with incredibly strong women some of who it is fair to say have had their empowerment strengthened by their experiences.
The point is the women in my family have been "empowered by women who themselves were empowered".
It is why the Women's Marches in the USA are so important because they will empower women to stand together against abuse.
In the UK it is why the WASPI women's campaign against the unfair way the Government has effectively stolen their pensions is important because it will empower them to stand together.
It is why the global #metoo movement is important because it empowers the victims to stand up to the perpetrators.
It is why we need to see more women at all levels of the establishment structures but especially at the top of Governments.
Only then – and I know this is only the opinion of a white working class male who feels they have been fortunate to be so though I suppose I'd now be classified as middle class – will women really be in a position to empower other women.
The sadness – as far as I'm concerned – is that as I've been writing this I find myself thinking :-
"Why in the 21st Century am I writing abut this at all"?

Today, I screwed up. You know, one of those stupid mistakes that you kick yourself for afterwards?
I was at Costco at lunchtime, and rushing so I would be back to work in a timely manner. I unloaded my stuff into my trunk and as soon as I slammed the trunk shut I realized my mistake.
Of course you already know where my keys were. I'm not the first person to make that bone-headed mistake and I won't be the last either.
I weighed my options. First I thought about calling a friend and asking them to drive me to my house, I decided against that one as I would ultimately be using at least an hour of their time in order for them to do me a big favour. The other options were grabbing a cab to my daughter's school to get her house key and then to my house to get the spare car keys and then cabbing back to Costco OR calling the local locksmith. It turned out that both options would cost me around $60 so I opted for the locksmith.
During my wait time, the voices inside my head were quick to kick me when I was down and tell me how stupid I was. However, that was when I decided to make a choice not to let them have a free-for-all. I decided that what was done was done, I couldn't change it, only wait for the fix that was coming shortly. I had gotten myself into a mess but had promptly rescued myself as well. It did take a few minutes for those voices to settle down but I WAS ABLE TO CHOOSE not to berate myself.
I tried to take an even bigger positive approach and see if I could figure out the top 10 things about locking your keys in your trunk… I could only come up with one, having a lot of free time all of a sudden. So even though I couldn't turn lemons into 10 glasses of lemonade, what I did do was take the lemons and do something else entirely.
I took the lemons and traded them in for something more palatable, perhaps not delicious, juicy mango but something like a nice, crisp apple. Something that didn't go to the extreme positive but didn't leave me with a sour look on my face either.
I like it when I get to choose the thoughts in my head.

I missed Blogmas Day 12. I know I suck. I have a very valid explanation thought but I feel so bad for missing it because I really wanted to complete it but these things just happen yah know?! Basically I wrote this huge blog post talking about the realities of blogmas and it was relatively long… all that jazz and I go to upload my feature image and chrome freezes, kicks me out and BOOM the whole blog post has been lost. But because it was my boyfs birthday I didn't have time to rewrite it but life takes over and so do priorities. SOZ.
Anyway I feel this is all very relative to this blog post all about blogmas. Don't get me wrong I love blogmas it gets me feeling all Christmassy and warm and fuzzy inside etc… but it is hard work. It is straight out 25 days of blogging where as I would normally do two or three posts a week.
One thing about blogmas is not only is it very time-consuming – ATM I am having to juggle blogmas, revision, coursework and a busy social life – but there is so much that has to go into it. Last year I was way more prepped and I wish I was like that this year. Last year I bulked shot all of my photos in one day (might be why they were all a load of rubbish though…) and I had written the majority of my posts. This year – specifically this week I have a heck of a lot going on because of my boyfriend's birthday, and my birthday on Sunday ~~~ EEKK! ~~~ and Christmas is so soon – so I really should have had a rocket shoved up my arse to get me planned and sorted (not lit obvs).
With the photos for blogmas it is so hard to time when to take them because December = darkness and by the time I get home from college it is pitch black. THANKS. So I have to take them either at the weekend – if I have time – or come home during the day when it is PRIME TIME.
All the bad things a side, because I seem like Scrooge when it comes to blogmas, but it does have lots of positives. One being that it is actually really good for your blog's algorithm. As you are posting every day about different Christmassy things, it draws near viewers to your blog, can be up to triple the amount of people who would normally view your blog in the month! How insane is that! It can get your blog out their sharing content that people will love!
But second, and most importantly blogmas is such a good way to bring the blogging community together because you are sharing content which is alike, and you can share the Christmas love!
Are you doing blogmas? If so what do you think about it?!

Camshaft seal replacement: 15 - 60 minutes ($10 / $100 / $185) In this video I replaced the rear camshaft seal due to an oil leak. This was done on a 1998 Volvo S70 but should not be very different on other vehicles. On the post '99 Volvo's you need to replace the upper torque mount.
Every R50, R52, R53 MINI leaks oil from this pesky seal- here's how to fix it. Often misdiagnosed as oil pan or rear main seal leak.

New Delhi: Underworld don and 1993 Mumbai blasts mastermind Dawood Ibrahim, who is known to have interests in real estate, money laundering and illegal financial services, is now in the business of `blood diamonds`.
According to The Times of India, National Security Adviser Ajit Doval had asked intelligence agencies to `pinpoint` Dawood's businesses in a bid to freeze the don's assets.
In a dossier created by the investigators, the officials have stated that the current focus of Dawood's businesses is to promote and expand the business of conflict diamonds in Africa and Dubai, said the daily.
Blood diamonds (also called conflict diamonds) is a term used for diamonds mined in a war zone and sold to finance an insurgency.
Blood diamonds have largely been blacklisted in the diamond markets across the world.
The dossier details Dawood's numerous links to countries such as Zimbabwe and Kenya and the way in which the D-company acquires diamonds abroad and smuggles them into Dubai.
The investigators have found out that Dawood's Dubai-based company, called Al Noor Diamonds, is a front for this illegal trade in blood diamonds.
"On each trip, diamonds worth around USD 5 to 10 lakh are smuggled into Dubai and the African courier is paid USD 10,000 as his courier fee," reads the dossier.
The investigators are now investigating the Indian link of the syndicate. Notably, India is a major processor of diamonds; almost 10 of every 11 diamonds that are sold across the globe are cut and polished in the country.
Dawood is on top of the most wanted list in India.

In an era when "traveling has become as natural as breathing," as a spokesman for Ebel recently put it, watches that keep track of time both for home and destination have become useful accessories.
Traveler's watches have two or more time displays, usually on the dial. They're more popular than ever, and more brands are adding them. Van Cleef & Arpels, for example, added its dual-time-zone Monsieur Arpels Réveil GMT, while Montblanc has expanded its avant-garde TimeWalker collection with its TimeWalker GMT Automatic, whose second time zone is a 24-hour ring on the dial rim. Others include upscale Daniel Mink's automatic 41 mm Levantis GMT, also with a 24-hour outer ring, and red "hand" indicator, and Ebel's automatic Sportwave GMT (normally a quartz line). Its inside 24-hour ring, with alternating white and orange numerals, circles a world map dial.
Display of time zones comes in fascinating variety: two atop each other, as in Tissot's art-deco "banana" case Classic Prince; as subdials, like Patek Philippe's gold hand-wound Calatrava Travel Time watch with a 24-hour subdial at 12 o'clock; and as analog/digital displays, like Breiting's Aerospace Advantage and Tissot's Navigator 2000, with multi time zones and 150 countries. Many have rotating dial rings, like Accutron's stainless-steel Excursion (which also has a 12-hour dial at 6 o'clock). Global-time-zone rings also abound, usually marked by their main cities (with an indicator "hand") encircling the dial, inside the bezel, or on the bezel, like Longines's men's automatic 38.5 mm Master Collection GMT, with the 24 zones on an internal rotating disc that shows each zone's major city, indicated by a third hand.
German luxury watchmaker A. Lange & Söhne premiered its hand-wound 18k Lange 1 Time Zone. It has an unusual dial configuration of two time-zone subdials—one large for "home" with a seconds subdial and day/night indicator in it, and a smaller one, for a second time zone—and an outer dial ring with major cities of the world's 24 time zones. It uses Lange's own movement, whose time-zone mechanism alone has 67 hand-finished parts, including an adjustment and correction mechanism (and push piece at 8 o'clock) for zone time and city ring.
Carl F. Bucherer's steel automatic 46.5 mm Patravi TravelTec is a three-time-zone GMT chronograph, and uses its exclusive CFB 1901 movement. The third-time-zone display uses a new single push-button mechanism by Bucherer (patent pending).
Raymond Weil's Don Giovanni Così Grande Two Zones, with transparent back, uses a new mechanical movement, with two time zones atop each other, one for 24 hours, the other with 12-hour display.
Omega's Speedmaster Broad Arrow XL Co-Axial Chronometer GMT is the first Speedmaster with Omega's exclusive coaxial escapement.
Pippo Italia's innovative Lifetime collection features three enamel dials in one case, using one automatic and two quartz movements, all Swiss made. There are several options for cover, dial, and case treatments, from diamond stripes to turquoise, plus interchangeable straps.
Hamilton's 38 mm Navy Khaki GMT has a second time display to the right of 9 o'clock, and a third, with world cities, to the left, next to a second crown.
Façonnable's steel oversize Hydra 3 World, with carbon-fiber bracelet, has three time zones—the main one and two smaller ones at 6 and 12 o'clock. All have luminescent hands. Time on the small faces each can be set without removing the watch.
One of this year's most appropriate traveler's timepieces is a pocket watch, Tissot's Phileas, named for the hero of the Jules Verne novel Around the World in 80 Days . The retro-style watch has its reference time zone at 12 o'clock, with the 23 other time zones around a silvered dial (with Tissot's original logo).
Limited-edition time-zone watches include Gérald Genta's Octo Incontro, the first luxury watch with a mechanical time display on front and a quartz digital display in back (15). Gevril's Serenade, in its Avenue of Americas collection, has dual time-zone and day/night displays (50 each in pink or white gold).
Chopard's automatic 42.5 mm Mille Miglia GMT 2005 chronograph, with a tachometer and a pointer for the 24 hours engraved on the bezel, comes on a black-rubber strap with a raised-tire-tread motif and a folding clasp (250 in rose gold).
To commemorate the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II, Oris has issued an automatic 42 mm version of its Big Crown Flight Timer pilot's watch, combining its world-timer movement with a second-time-zone display at 3 o'clock, and a third (with its own crown at 2 o'clock) on a rotating rim ring (1,945). Luxury brand Blancpain marks its own 270th anniversary with an automatic GMT with a second time zone (a 24-hour counter) at 9 o'clock, also linked to an alarm.

8/4/10 Is It Hockey Season Yet? and the "Kolzig" is the Magic Word
Short and sweet – I may be forced to be a passive Washington Capitals fan AGAIN this upcoming season. More details later. Regardless – I simply couldn't ignore this announcement at washingtoncapitals.com regarding my all-time favorite, Olie Kolzig. Yup, I can't really afford even $50 or so bucks, plus gas, plus the inevitable CAPS related merchandise I will just have to purchase while at the 2nd Annual Capitals Convention, but the confirmed attendance of Kolzig is about as potent to luring me to spend money on something NHL-Capitals-Kolzig related as catnip is to my cat. Both my cat and I are simply programmed, instinctually, to go to the source, get all wide-eyed and then run about frantically in a state of euphoric bliss. Let's hope I don't lie on the floor of the Washington DC Convention Center and roll from side-to-side like my cat will do when on a serious catnip "buzz". 🙂 I'm not sure I'd be embarrassed as much as some of the bystanders and anyone affiliated with the Washington Capitals organization who will be obligated to admit that the crazy woman who went all-out bonkers on a "Favorite Goalie" high is one of their life-long, loyal fans.
I have been doing everything I can to keep my mind and focus on getting through the Summer hockey-hiatus. It has been a struggle. I was ready for more hockey by the beginning of July. Luckily, I did get to work with a couple of netminders over the Summer (still working with one to date) and I may be consulting for a hockey team on a trial basis over the '10-'11 season as well. I spent a bit of volunteer time helping out with a "little dudes" hockey camp last month and I absolutely had a blast. Those kids made me laugh so hard, I sincerely contemplated wearing discreet bladder control undergarments to be sure no one could tell if I tinkled a little from constant giggling and full-on, belly laughs brought on by the antics of small fellas on ice. It's not just what they say, it's also the faces they make. I was no good after each day of camp – totally just no more good. ROCK ON LITTLE ICE DUDES!!
Hopefully, I'll be getting to this blog more and more often now. I can't make any promises right now – all things are in flux and my plan to be moved and more financially stable had to be adjusted more than I could have reasonably predicted. I'm thrilled to at least know for sure I have a ticket to the Capitals Convention, since I missed it last year. I probably won't make any CAPS games without charity from fellow fans and a little help from the hockey gods – but hanging out with a horde of "Red Hearts" and in same building as "Godzilla" will suffice. GO CAPS!

Start the conversation
The Dow Jones today (DJIA) plummeted on news that Greece might actually exit the euro. Here are the closing market numbers…
Final Numbers for the Dow Jones Today
Dow Jones: 18,014.28; -101.56; -0.56%
Nasdaq: 5,117.00; -15.95; -0.31%
The DJIA today fell 101 points as investors weighed ongoing debt drama in Greece.
The S&P 500 Volatility Index (VIX), the market's fear gauge, jumped 5.8% today.
What Happened in the Dow Jones Today?
- Why the Dow fell today: Today's trading session fell victim to quadruple witching, a period when volatility often spikes in the final trading hour thanks to the expiration of options and futures contracts. Meanwhile, events in Greece have prompted the European Union's ministers to host an emergency meeting next week to stave off default.
- Oil slips: WTI oil pricesfell 1.5%, dipping below $60 a barrel today as Greek debt negotiations and a looming deadline in Iran's nuclear deal put pressure on the energy market. Brent oil dropped more than 2% to dip below $63 per barrel.
- IPOs surge: The IPO wagon continues to power along at a breakneck pace. On Friday, Fogo de Chao Inc. (Nasdaq: FOGO) became the fourth restaurant group to go public in 2015, and investors were hungry for a profit play. Shares of FOGO surged more than 28% in its market debut. So what is the next IPO that you should watch? The biggest IPO story right now is home rental giant Airbnb, but not for the reasons why you might think. Here's the full story why the Airbnb IPO date is in jeopardy, even while the firm recently received a $24 billion valuation.
- On tap next week: On Monday, investors will keep a close eye on an emergency meeting of European Ministers over Greece's $1.8 billion debt to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the May existing home sales report in the United States.
- Earnings to watch: Companies reporting earnings include Carnival Corp. (NYSE: CCL), Ennis Inc. (NYSE: EBF), and Micron Technology Inc. (Nasdaq: MU).
Stocks to Watch: FIT, CAG, MAC, SPG, HSY, KBH
- Stocks to Watch No. 1, FIT: Shares of Fitbit Inc. (NYSE: FIT) rallied another 9.5% today as the company continues to surge after its very successful IPO on Thursday. The tech company saw shares jump more than 50% Thursday and now push to a valuation just shy of $6 billion. So, how does Fitbit make money? Find the answer, right here.
- Stocks to Watch No. 2, CAG: Shares of ConAgra Foods (NYSE: CAG) were up more than 10.8% on news that activist hedge fund Jana Partners has built a 7.2% stake in the food manufacturer. The fund said CAG shares are undervalued and announced intentions to nominate three directors to the ConAgra board.
- Stocks to Watch No. 3, MAC: Shares of Macerich Co. (NYSE: MAC) fell more than 6.6% on news that Simon Property Group (NYSE: SPG) has dropped its ownership stake in the firm. Macerich is the nation's third-largest mall operator and continues to face increased challenges from online competition and collateral weakness of its retail clients' performance in recent months.
- Stocks to Watch No. 4, HSY: Shares of Hershey Co. (NYSE: HSY) slipped more than 3.6% on news that the company slashed its 2015 sales forecast and announced it will eliminate 300 jobs. The company said it continues to face challenges in China and other foreign markets due to a stronger U.S. dollar. Excluding Forex fluctuations, Hershey said it now expects 2015 revenue to increase by 4% to 5%, down from its previous estimates of 6% to 7%.
- Stocks to Watch No. 5, KBH: Shares of KB Home (NYSE: KBH) surged 9.4% on news that the homebuilder beat first-quarter earnings estimates, reporting a per-share gain of $0.10. This beat analyst expectations by one penny. The company said it benefited from a boost of high-priced homes.

It's probably worth me expanding upon the deliberately vague title of this blog post before I go any further.
By 'this' I mean 'mobile' learning.
By 'another' I mean as we did all those years ago in the early days of 'e' learning. (admittedly I have no personal experience of those days, only anecdotal examples)
By 'we've' I mean us in the L&D community. Both within the vendor community and the client community.
So what do I mean by all this?
During a recent meeting with some colleagues, I reflected upon the conversations that I have had with potential clients over the past 6 months with regards to the use of mobile technologies. With a very small exception (probably 2-3 out of approx 60 conversations) those conversations have revolved around the creation of 'mobile learning', which actually translated as the "shrinking down of desktop content to allow it to be viewed and interacted with on a mobile device".
Very little, if any mention, of creating performance support resources…
No consideration of using the devices native functions I.e. camera, keyboard, GPS, voice recorder, to enhance the experience….
A heavy focus on the learner 'learning' something from it, as opposed to the worker 'enhancing' their performance from it (Hell, who needs to learn the London Underground routes if you've got the app in your pocket?)
And this is where I think we have got it wrong again!
We have used the blanket phrase 'm-learning' to describe the use of mobile devices to facilitate learning. Now to *us*, we acknowledge (at least I hope you do) that this can include using the device to (amongst other things)Consume traditional self paced click next eLearning (yes of course there is a place for this)Listen to podcastsTake pictures of things to help us remember something in the futureEngage in online dialogue conversations with othersRecord audioDetermine your proximityThe creation of User Generated Content for othersCall for help!
Of course, with some degree of thought and design the above functions can (and probably should) be incorporated into many (I may even dare to say 'all') learning programmes, but in my opinion (based as I said on my conversations with many people on this subject) this simply isn't the case.
Well I think the fact that we have used the term 'm-learning' which is not a million miles away from the term 'e-learning' (which let's be honest, most people see as being click-next, self-paced stuff) hasn't helped matters, I think we've inadvertently given the impression that it's traditional eLearning on a mobile device has a part to play in it.
I also think that the recent hysteria over some eLearning authoring products and their 'mobile readiness' (which translates as traditional eLearning but outputted to HTML5 or a native app) hasn't helped matters either
"Ooooo look! I can recreate my traditional self-paced, click-next stuff to work on a mobile device – I must be creating m-learning"
Well technically I have to concede
"Yes. Yes, you are"
but I feel that unless we start to make more noise about the fact that m-learning is more than shrinking down content and actually the 'learning' part of it could well be redundant, we will miss another opportunity to really harness these technologies just as I guess we have done in the past……

THE MERMAID (G.P. Putnam's Sons) is a striking, underwater version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears as only Brett could create starring a mermaid and three octopuses. Brett is famous for taking extensive research trips to all corners of the globe for her books and including special cultural flourishes in her highly detailed art. THE MERMAID took her to the reefs off the coast of Okinawa, Japan, and she describes her experience much like Alice going down the rabbit hole to find another world. Later, during a "tentacles-on" experience at the New England Aquarium's Giant Pacific Octopus Exhibit, Brett was astounded by their intelligence and curiosity for human interaction. Brett's love of nature and strong support of conservation is strongly reflected in her work.
In THE MERMAID, when Kiniro, a young mermaid, comes upon a gorgeous house made of seashells and coral and she is so curious that she goes inside. But when the Octopus family returns home, they are not happy to find someone has been eating their food and breaking their things. Luckily, shock turns to happiness when Kiniro gives the baby octopus a thoughtful gift before escaping from the twenty-four arms coming her way.
Jan Brett is the New York Times #1 bestselling artist/author of over 35 books for children which have sold over 40 million copies combined. Her books have been chosen as "Best Children's Books of the Year" by The New Yorker, Parents, Redbook, and others.
Praise for THE MERMAID: ★"…Dazzling…Brett's brightly colored, highly detailed art shines in this aquatic setting… Brett's fans will rejoice, and she'll make new ones too." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
A striking under-the-sea version of Goldilocks with bonus storytelling in the borders, as only Jan Brett could create.
When Kiniro, a young mermaid, comes upon a gorgeous house made of seashells and coral, she is so curious that she goes inside. She's thrilled to find a just-right breakfast, pretty little chair, and, best of all, a comfy bed that rocks in the current.
When Big Snowshoe tells Little Snow that the animals' Santa is coming with presents for everyone, Little Snow wants to know who he is. The animals say they have never seen him. Maybe he's a badger, a moose, a polar bear, or a wolf, they tell him. But this spunky little rabbit thinks they are just fooling him.
Jan Brett's popular winter tale--now in board book!
Confident and excited to make new friends, the Gingerbread Baby happens upon a bakery, where he dances and prances in front of a sugar cookie girl, trying to make friends. But she just stares and doesn't say a word, like all the other sweet treats he tries to meet.
Four of Jan Brett's very best animal stories, together in one treasury.
Jan Brett's beloved character the Gingerbread Baby returns in a fun-filled Christmas caper!
A wild little troll runs away from home because he doesn't want to do his chores. Rollo tries living with various woodland animals, but he finds out that there is no place like home, and returns to his family just in time for "the best Christmas ever."
Jan Brett's Christmas classic is a visual masterpiece and includes a DVD to savor!
A bestselling modern classic that has been a family favorite for over 25 years.
When Nicki drops his white mitten in the snow, he goes on without realizing that it is missing.
Aloo-ki glances up from fishing and sees her sled dogs floating off on an ice floe. She races after them and comes upon an igloo. Being a curious girl, she goes inside only to find no one home. That's because the polar bear family who lives there is out walking while their breakfast cools off. Aloo-ki eats some soup, tries on their boots, and finally crawls into the smallest bed for a nap.
Who will help Mossy return home to Lilypad Pond?
More than anything Hedgie wants to be an astronaut and travel into space.
Jan Brett's richly illustrated take on a classic tale—it's just right!
A Publishers Weekly #1 bestseller, Jan Brett's heartwarming story of Hedgie the hedgehog's misadventures in the snow has become a family favorite.
Jan Brett's #1 New York Times bestseller, now in board book format
Jan Brett's board book audience will love this brief version of a favorite tale in which Aloo-ki, an Inuit girl, meets a polar bear family.
Originally published in 1989, this luminous reissue of an all-time favorite fairy tale will attract an even wider audience with its romantic new jacket and a shortened text.
Jan Brett sets her Cinderella story in a snowy Russian winter where one magical night, Cinders, the most picked upon hen in the flock, becomes the most loved by Prince Cockerel when she arrives at his ball looking so beautiful that even her bossy sisters don't recognize her.
Remember how the Gingerbread Boy is eaten by the fox? Well, not this Gingerbread Baby in a delicious twist to a favorite old tale.
It all begins when Matti opens the oven too soon and out jumps a cheeky little Gingerbread Bay. He leads Matti's mother and father, the dog and the cat.
Jan Brett's New York Times bestselling picture book The Umbrella has all the rollicking fun of the woodland animals that crowd into a mitten in the snow in The Mitten.

Online wine retailer hides labels until after purchase
Beeline Reader
We're constantly looking for innovative ways to improve the Springwise experience, and so we're now introducing BeeLine Reader, a new technology that helps you read more quickly and efficiently. To learn more about BeeLine Reader, an award-winning startup funded by Intel Capital, see BeeLineReader.com.
The proliferation of reductions and deals on wine can make it very difficult for customers to know the true value of the bottle they are buying. It also makes it hard for producers to offer competitive prices, without devaluing their brand. Now, Winecrasher is an online wine store whose Crash Pricing model could provide a solution by only revealing the bottle's label after purchase. We have already seen a perfume brand remove the fancy packaging of perfumes in order to encourage customers to follow their nose. Winecrasher operates in a similar way, by removing labeling until after the wine is…

Grief and wanting to die

Grief and hair
There he was sitting in a chair in the row in front of me at tonight's middle school holiday band concert. We didn't speak, and I didn't tousle his blond locks, but I was so tempted. This tempting boy and his messy hair. The hair that looks just like Riley's hair. His 11-year-old floppy mess, something he called his "straight afro." Tufts rose in different directions, defying gravity and any comb.
Between songs, I dug my phone from my purse, poised it to take a picture of my 7th grader who was performing. But in reality, I wanted to take a picture of this rounded head with the perfect, messy hair. This lookalike even wore a black sweatshirt with a red hood, just like Riley had. It would have been creepy, I decided, to take a photo and so I denied myself the pleasure of taking this head of hair home with me as a souvenir of tonight's visit from Riley. I tried not to stare or alarm his father who sat at his side.
I desperately wanted to tell Riley's best friend who sat two chairs to my left. I desperately wanted to tell Riley's stepbrother and stepsister who sat two seats to my right. I desperately wanted to tell Riley's dad and stepmom who sat behind me. I wanted everyone to share in this moment, to agree that indeed looked just like the back of Riley's head. Fortunately I found a crumpled tissue hidden at the bottom of my purse to blot away the emotions that came with feeling so close and then instantly reminded that he, my sweet son, is so far away.

Grief and Halloween
As the van rolls down the winding street, it passes a torso climbing from the gutter. The torso is topped with a head, its face painted white with exaggerated clown lips and topped with a shock of red hair. It's holding a red balloon in an outstretched arm. In the adjacent driveway, a skeleton straddles a motorcycle.
As I head to the library, the grocery store, the Post Office, a row of skeletons lines our neighbor's front yard across the street from the elementary school. As I drive around town, there are bloody severed limbs on porches. There are partially decomposed bodies dangling from trees. There are bloody mummies. There are blood-splattered tools.
As I head to the library, the grocery store, the Post Office, a row of skeletons lines our neighbor's front yard across the street from the elementary school. As I drive around town, there are bloody severed limbs on porches. There are partially decomposed bodies dangling from trees. There are bloody mummies. There are blood-splattered tools.
It's gruesome. Horrible. Triggering. I've seen enough bloody bandages, exposed bone, pools of blood, and thick black stitches holding together skin. I've seen blood-splattered floors. Blood on the machines designed to hold the bloody fluid pouring from tubes leaving my son's body. I see these things when I close my eyes. When I'm trying to fall asleep at night. When I have another nightmare. And now they are everywhere during the day. When my eyes are open.
When did blood and death and gore become mainstream entertainment gleefully displayed in front yards? I don't know how to avoid it because it's everywhere. I hate this time of year. I hate this holiday. For a society that tends to avoid talking about death and dying and grief, we sure love to slap it around for fun at the end of October.
Should I put my son's ashes on display in the front yard? Should I scatter his collection of lost childhood teeth on our sidewalk? Or maybe put them in a small bowl next to our mailbox? Should I hang his t-shirts on a clothesline across the front porch? I suspect that would be in poor taste. Because actual death is offensive.
In the meantime, if you pass the middle school in my town, you'll see a yard with a large decorative -- if that's what you call it -- tombstone at the end of their driveway. In large letters across the front, it says "RIP Max." Max is their son's name. Is it fun to imagine that your child has died? Even when you know a family whose son has actually died? When you've been to their house and talked about grief? Should I put a tombstone in my front yard with Riley's name on it? Would it still be funny?
I miss when Halloween was about pumpkins and kids dressed as firefighters or dinosaurs or cows and bunnies or Mario and Luigi. And the gore was restricted to rentals from the local video store.
Seriously people, WTF?

Grief and chances
|Riley - perfect at 11
Two nights ago, I was in an imaginary physical therapy nursing homes on the east coast owned by friends from college. It was illogical that I'd traveled across the country with several bereaved families, my ex-husband, his wife, and our family dog. But that's exactly what had happened. And while we were there, my dog injured herself in the rain and my physical therapy friends used their expert skills to rehabilitate her while all of us stayed indefinitely at their imaginary nursing home, waiting for her dog body to heal. Even though it was nonsensical and illogical, it was also fantastical when an inviting light beam shone from the ceiling. It was a magical spotlight and when I was under its brilliant beam, Riley was there. Alive, communicative as ever. Three-dimensional. And still 11 years old. His brother was eager to have a turn.
Eleven will always be my favorite age. Riley was perfect. Perfectly curious about maps. Perfectly aware of the importance of family and telling people that he loved them. Perfectly excited about learning and reading. Perfectly content with always having vanilla ice cream. Perfectly sized for sitting in my lap. And perfectly loud in my household with four children, a dog, and a bunch of chickens. It was a heartbreaking moment earlier this year when I realized that no one in my house would ever be 11 years old again. I wrote about it here in the Fall issue of Six Hens.

Grief and celebrations
|Riley with Freddie
It also doesn't look like the house of family whose daughter is celebrating her 16th birthday today, either. There are no balloons or streamers. There are no envelopes or bits of wrapping paper. There are no birthday candles. Although there was a large kitchen mess this morning when her dad made eggs Benedict (her favorite) and waffles (Riley's favorite) with strawberries and whipped cream. He's a good dad, that one.
Every single day there is a struggle to be present in the day while being sucked into grief's vortex. And to be fair, I like grief's vortex. It's familiar and I feel like after almost four years, I understand how it works. I'm over here by myself observing other people over there in the real world. I am only an observer these days. I cannot participate in anything without feeling angry or sad or mad. Today, I'm angry. I am annoyed. At everyone. For having a birthday in the first place. For wanting to sing that song that people sing. For being excited about presents or eggs Benedict and whipped cream. For wanting to be together and talk about how exciting it is to be 16 and all the things that kids who are 16 get to do, like get a learner's permit. It doesn't matter how many times I go round and round with my therapist. I know intellectually that I'm not actually angry that my stepdaughter is having a birthday or that people want to celebrate that. I'm angry that Riley is dead and that he's not here celebrating with us or that he doesn't get to ever turn 16 (or 12 for that matter).
But emotionally, it's hard to understand those things when all I want is for Riley to be here. My stomach is hurting. Everything is hurting. Mostly my heart, though, even though I am used to feeling my heart hurt all of the time.
Most of the celebrating seems to be done now. I can hear the dishwasher whirring. I can hear the TV chattering. I can see the dog curled up on her bed snoozing. It's time to get some bubbly water for my upset stomach. I'm looking forward to crawling into bed and falling asleep, the only place where I don't know that Riley is dead.

Grief and age
I've used this phrase a lot when people ask how I'm doing: "All days are hard in their own unique way, but some days are harder than others." And there is something about my younger son who is three years, three months and two weeks younger than Riley becoming the same age as Riley (last year -- I definitely ran away last year), and now surpassing him in numbers this year that makes July rank with some of the harder days.
So was the end of the school year when this younger son finished sixth grade. The grade that Riley only started. I wrote about it here in the latest issue of Six Hens.
Riley's dad calls it "mental math." All that counting and comparing of numbers that individually and collectively are meaningless, but we, as humans, as meaning-makers, latch onto and attempt to harness and understand in the aftermath of nonsensical death.
The younger son has become the older son. Just as I knew he would.

Grief and pointlessness
|Riley's jerseys
As the innings progressed, the clouds thickened and then colluded to make everyone and everything wet. It started as a few drops, but quickly progressed into a downpour. After a few minutes of rain, the umpires called a rain delay. Most people -- including the kids from both teams -- moved under the awning of the snack shack. I pulled my hood over my head, but stayed put. If I didn't move, then no one would see me. I felt like a deer, frozen in place in my winter coat with the hood pulled over my head in an attempt to stay dry and invisible. One minute. Five minutes.
The other parents eventually joined the kids under the awning. Why hasn't the game been called, I wondered. But I couldn't ask anyone. I don't know how to talk to the other parents. Do they know I have a son named Riley? I don't know how to talk about the score or the at-bat or the home run. It's easier to stay invisible. Ten minutes later and the rain continued.
For the sake of my son's health, I mustered the courage to approach the team under the awning. I pulled him aside. "Do you want to go home?" I asked. "The game isn't over yet," he said. "But you are soaked and it's cold. I'm worried you're going to get sick. And it's just baseball," I said. "It's okay. I want to stay." I said okay and went back to my wet chair in the bleachers. A few minutes later, the drops became less frequent and the umpires said the game could resume as patches of blue punched through the jam layer.
The children went back to their sides of the field, their dugouts. The parents reclaimed their spots on the bleachers.I could hear their voices nearby. They talked about the rain delay. They talked about the score. They scolded their children for not catching the ball when they thought they should have caught the ball. They scolded the teen umpires for calling their child out when they believed that their child was safe. They cheered when a bat made big enough contact with a ball that allowed their child to run to second base without the need for scolding.
It's all so pointless, I kept thinking. All the cheering and scolding and celebrating and complaining. But then again, what's the point of anything? It's all just a way to pass the time, to get through the weekend. An excuse to take pictures to hang on the wall. Something to do as a family. I don't think it felt pointless when Riley played for all of those seven years. It was a place that he felt normal. A place where a uniform made him look like all of the other kids who had two ventricles and a spleen and their heart on the correct side of their chest pumping blood to its neighboring lungs and then to the far reaches of the body with ease. A place where I let myself believe that he was just like the other kids. And that him growing up was just a given instead of a fear sewn into my DNA that expanded and contracted with every breath.

Grief and showing up
I kept feeling like I was supposed to have some speech prepared. Sometime to say about grief to his peers who are now in high school, some lessons I've learned, some silver lining crap. I kept picturing my moving speech the foundation of some Ted Talk I would eventually produce on grief since I'm a grief expert these days. But no thought bubble appeared over my head helping me know what to say. All I kept thinking was that I have nothing because grief is awful and unrelenting and forever. I haven't learned anything. I will never not be sad that my son died. I will never not be angry that he was stolen from me and his family and this life.
I honestly don't know what I ended up saying when confronted with a group of dozens of his peers and their families who decided to spend the most beautiful day of the month thinking about Riley, running in the heat, and being offered hot chocolate at our house after the run (hot chocolate -- one of Riley's favorites -- seemed like a fabulous idea when I thought of it weeks earlier when it was much colder). As I stood in front of them, their expectant faces watching me, I could hardly find my voice. It wobbled and broke as I marveled at their size, them being there when they could have been just about anywhere.
I was humbled that they showed up. It made me feel slightly less alone that day. Another bereaved mom friend who was there said I had a glow about me. I think it was sweat combined with the way I feel when I'm in the middle of something to do with Riley. When it's okay to say his name, okay to cry, okay to talk about him to people who don't feel uncomfortable hearing his name or stories about him…at least in that moment. It's the closest it feels to him being alive now.

Grief and making trades
Riley, I'm so sorry. Please forgive me... I would give you my breath, if it meant that you could laugh. I would give you my hands, if it meant that you could play catch with your brother. I would give you my legs, if it meant that you could run to first base. I would give you my heart, if it meant that you could sleep in your bed with your penguins, Freddy and Freddy, Jr. I would give it all to you, if it meant that you could be here, growing up. I would give it all to you, if it meant that you could be here growing up, even knowing that I wouldn't be here to watch it. Even knowing that in that version of reality, we still wouldn't be together. And you would be motherless. It would be worth it, though, because you wouldn't be alone. You'd be surrounded by people who love you. And you would have a working body. And you would get to celebrate your 15th birthday today.

Grief and labor
Fifteen years ago tonight, I was 10 days past my due date with my first baby. Contractions would begin around 3 am on April 2, and would continue until 11:20 pm, when my 8 pound, two ounce boy entered the world in a frenzy of activity. Doctors surrounded us, even though I was oblivious to their concerns, about his heartbeat that had decelerated during contractions. About his failed APGAR tests. Tonight, in this heightened emotional state, I have created a flurry of tasks to accomplish. I'm too twitchy to be still.
Riley came into the world, and in a matter of hours, everything stopped being real. The certainty of walls and ceilings and the physics of gravity and the science and technology that gave me a monitored hospital birth were gone. I went from being an exhausted postpartum woman to an exhausted postpartum woman who was told that in order for her infant son to survive, he would need three open-heart surgeries. And he would need the first one in a matter of days.
We agreed to those life-saving surgeries. And then we agreed to some more. And my son still died. And I continue to get donation requests from the hospitals that treated him. They show pictures of children who have survived, who have lived beyond expectation. Those children are smiling and their parents are smiling. And yet, my son has died and they think that I want to give them more money. I write "Return to sender" on the envelope. I also write, "Please remove me from your mailing list because my son, despite his six heart surgeries, has died."
Tomorrow will come, and I will wake and put on my Riley grief bands. I will wear my Riley necklaces. I will wear green, his favorite color. I will hike in the hills near my house and visit his tree stump decorated with his name. I will donate blood to help some other person in need of blood. I will sob and the technician will ask if it hurts and I will say that my arm feels fine. I will make his favorite dinner. And I will hate that he is dead. Just like all of the days. And I will wait for this nightmare to end, the one that makes my son dead while I am alive. I just want to wake up into a world where my son is in 9th grade. Where he is at the table eating Honey Bunches of Oats or garlic toast for breakfast. Where he will get 15, and 21, and 30, and 75, and all of the ordinary years in between.

This made me smile and I don't want to forget it!
One of my students sent me an email last night about how he wants to work harder and bring his grade up. He was looking for advice on what he should revise, what he needs to work on, etc. It was a really wonderful, positive email, which made his closing even funnier… He meant to sign it "sincerely" but spelled it "sinisterly"!

Parts of a throwaway camera's flash unit can be salvaged to build a 280-V capacitor charger for a flash unit that uses six or nine batteries (see the figure). Camera shops usually will give them away for free. The flash capacitor, output rectifier, and transformer are easily de-soldered for use in the new circuit.
Many circuits are available for such flash units. But the transformers are hard to get or can only be obtained in large quantities, and they work at just one voltage. Because the units in disposable cameras are designed for blocking oscillators with a 1.5-V supply, they have very low primary inductance, and peak primary current can easily exceed 2 A. But because the switching frequency will be very high, they can't be used in a blocking oscillator at high voltage without an expensive high-speed, low-saturation transistor or MOSFET. The switching transistor in the flash units can't be used with a 6-V battery because they only have a 25-V breakdown rating.
In the circuit shown, a low-cost Darlington transistor is driven by a 5-ms on-time astable oscillator formed with an NE555 timer, preventing transformer saturation. This reduces peak currents, and the 1.6-kHz frequency reduces transistor overheating. Low peak currents also will prolong rechargeable battery lifetimes.
Capacitor voltage regulation is achieved with a 280-V "zener diode" made with two reverse-biased 1N914 diodes operating in voltage breakdown. During zener operation, the NE555 is stopped by transistor Q2 being driven into saturation by the zener current. Charging will resume once some charge has leaked from output capacitor C1.
These 100-V diodes will typically have a 140-V breakdown, but some have been measured at 170 V. The total capacitor voltage should not exceed the 300-V rating of the flash capacitor used. A lower voltage also will prolong lamp and capacitor lifetimes.
Resistor R5 and capacitor C4 must be included to limit the current peak that's produced when the diodes break down. Otherwise, transistor Q2 will be destroyed. The astable oscillator directly drives the switching transistor, with turn-off voltage drive provided by the transformer secondary.
The maximum reverse voltage is limited by the forward voltage of D1. It also provides a charging path for the charging current. No heatsinking for the switching transistor is necessary because the peak and average currents are low. An LED indicates when the capacitor voltage is reached. With a 45-second charging time, average current is approximately 40 mA.

I know this is a stupid question, but I'm a 2D artist and trying to learn zbrush because all my previous clients dried up because they want zbrush models.
I was trained using Scott Robertson DVDs plus I went to his lectures and I pretty much just practice what he taught until I became good.
Is there a good sculpting books that have exercise that build up to becoming a good sculptor?
Sorry if there isn't. It just I'm a bit stuck and I've been looking at sculpting books and they all seem bad. For example, Edouard Lanteri has some exercise but the book is rubbish.
If I had a time machine I would go back in time and kill the person who invented zbrush.
If you trained using Robertson's stuff then I doubt your skill with anatomy. If you can draw you can sculpt, you just need to learn the software. All you need is to learn the software, hopefully you used Loomis, Hampton, Vilppu and the other usual suspects for your anatomy.
Scott Robertson teaches pretty badly, especially his early DVD's. You're just bad at drawing or don't know the software. Or both.
The best way to get good with anything is put the hours into it, Anon. Get in there and learn it, and make sure you're using quality reference when you practice.
