It's been a slow progression. First, I moved from Eclipse, for years my Integrated Development Environment of choice, to NetBeans, which I've been using for the last year or so. It's faster, leaner, and less prone to bringing down my computer for no readily apparent reason. But now, slowly, I'm making my way to Coda. And it's like a breath of fresh air. It just works.
It surely helps that Coda is a native code web development IDE, while the other two are optimized for (and built on) Java. For large applications, Java is a dog. But there's something more to it: while NetBeans and Eclipse feel engineered, Coda feels designed. As well as checking that everything works, someone went through the trouble of checking how it feels to use. The emotional experience was an important part of the design.
Beyond programming languages and development methodologies, the most important skill a developer can have is empathy. To be useful, software needs to be built with a deep understanding of my needs as a user, which may be different to another user's needs. I write both software and short stories, and I use the same approach for both: I'm writing for an audience. Open source often feels like it's scratching an itch; rather than users, the software is often written for the developer. We know that over 80% of Linux kernel contributions are made by corporations, so it's reasonable to infer that most open source software is built to feel an internal corporate need.
Consequently, interaction design is underrepresented in open source. Versions 0.1 through 0.9 of Elgg featured interfaces built by Dave Tosh and myself, reacting to reports of what users found difficult or confusing. They were usable, but although I'm proud of them, they were undeniably clunky. From version 1.0, we had Pete Harris on board, an actual UX designer, who made a world of difference to the project. I don't think Elgg would be as popular as it is without him. (Now that he's moved on – alongside the rest of the 1.0 core team – I'm interested to see how the interface develops.)
Open source is an important, valid methodology with many applications. I still completely stand behind it, but I'm not willing to use inferior software for ideology's sake. So how can we improve the design ethic in open source?
Part of the problem is market. To be blunt, commercial software needs to sell, and usable interfaces are an integral part of that; open source projects don't, and often sell support as a funding strategy. Making the software easier isn't, therefore, always part of the dynamic. (You'll notice that the best-designed open source projects – WordPress, StatusNet et al – all have a commercial version.) It's also not necessarily part of the engineer's agenda: I've too often heard software developers discuss design as a kind of fluffy afterthought that they don't view as being as important. I try not to hire developers with this mindset; anyone who thinks they're more important than anyone else in the development process is destructive.
Another problem, though, is designer attitude. Who wants to give away their hard work for free, after all? Designers already complain about their work being undervalued on marketplaces like 99designs. (Oddly, very few developers complain about their profession being undervalued on sites like oDesk, although I think it is.) While developers see having a Github repository as a kind of portfolio, and participation in an open source project as career-building, designers don't have the same incentives. Although there are individual examples – Chris Messina's involvement in Firefox undoubtedly boosted his career, for example – a designer's participation in an open source community is not generally seen as being awesome. Yet.
Open source companies have an incentive here, and a responsibility to the community to promote this ethos. They should understand the importance of hiring designers, and they should give preference to designers who have contributed to open source projects. Most importantly, developers should understand that designers are engineers too: they just work with a different set of tools.

Nassim's latest book Skin in the Game it finally out!
Click here to view on Amazon: http://amzn.to/2FuMkrl
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Black Swan, a bold new work that challenges many of our long-held beliefs about risk and reward, politics and religion, finance and personal responsibility
In his most provocative and practical book yet, one of the foremost thinkers of our time redefines what it means to understand the world, succeed in a profession, contribute to a fair and just society, detect nonsense, and influence others. Citing examples ranging from Hammurabi to Seneca, Antaeus the Giant to Donald Trump, Nassim Nicholas Taleb shows how the willingness to accept one's own risks is an essential attribute of heroes, saints, and flourishing people in all walks of life.
As always both accessible and iconoclastic, Taleb challenges long-held beliefs about the values of those who spearhead military interventions, make financial investments, and propagate religious faiths. Among his insights:
• For social justice, focus on symmetry and risk sharing. You cannot make profits and transfer the risks to others, as bankers and large corporations do. You cannot get rich without owning your own risk and paying for your own losses. Forcing skin in the game corrects this asymmetry better than thousands of laws and regulations.
• Ethical rules aren't universal. You're part of a group larger than you, but it's still smaller than humanity in general.
• Minorities, not majorities, run the world. The world is not run by consensus but by stubborn minorities imposing their tastes and ethics on others.
• You can be an intellectual yet still be an idiot. "Educated philistines" have been wrong on everything from Stalinism to Iraq to low-carb diets.
• Beware of complicated solutions (that someone was paid to find). A simple barbell can build muscle better than expensive new machines.
• True religion is commitment, not just faith. How much you believe in something is manifested only by what you're willing to risk for it.The phrase "skin in the game" is one we have often heard but rarely stopped to truly dissect. It is the backbone of risk management, but it's also an astonishingly rich worldview that, as Taleb shows in this book, applies to all aspects of our lives. As Taleb says, "The symmetry of skin in the game is a simple rule that's necessary for fairness and justice, and the ultimate BS-buster," and "Never trust anyone who doesn't have skin in the game. Without it, fools and crooks will benefit, and their mistakes will never come back to haunt them."

In 1938, Monsanto began manufacturing PVB resin in a joint venture with Shawinigan Resins of Canada, which resulted in the production of Saflex brand interlayer at its adjoining plant in Springfield, Massachusetts. These early interlayers offered vastly improved processing and windscreen performance compared to the previously used cellulose acetate and quickly displaced it in this application. By the early 1950s, architectural use of laminated glass began to increase and coloured interlayer products were introduced for this application. Monsanto developed a process to put a gradient color band on the automotive interlayer and began offering it commercially in 1951. In the early 1960s, Monsanto expanded its production facilities to Trenton, Michigan and Ghent, Belgium and introduced the first "HPR" (High Penetration Resistant) interlayer in 1965. This product approximately tripled the penetration resistance of windscreens and federal standards requiring laminated windscreens in the United States were enacted in 1967. In 1997, Monsanto's chemical business was spun off to create Solutia, which merged with Eastman Chemical in 2012. Eastman Chemical remains fully committed to maintaining the Saflex leadership position and serving the laminated glass market for years to come. Eastman Chemical is recognized as a world leader in PVB interlayer and has continued to expand production facilities worldwide and meet new needs of the laminating industry with products offering superior processing, laminate performance and durability.
What is Saflex PVB interlayer?
Saflex is a plasticised polyvinyl butyral (PVB) film that bonds with glass under heat and pressure to form laminated safety glass. The Saflex interlayer sandwiched between the layers of glass is responsible for the enhanced performance properties of laminated glass. It is sold as refrigerated or interleaved rolls and is manufactured in a variety of formulations, colors, and thicknesses for use in laminated architectural, transportation and specialty glazings.
For information regarding specific product availability, contact a local Saflex representative.
Saflex® brand PVB is a film consisting of approximately 75% PVB resin and 25% plasticiser. Architectural grades of Saflex are plasticised with Santicizer® S2075 plasticiser, or trietylene glycol di-2-ethyl hexanoate. Specialty grades of Saflex have different compositions. Small quantities of other proprietary materials are added for adhesion control, ultra-violet screening agents and color.
UV, Visible and NIR Light Properties
Saflex® interlayers contain ultra violet (UV) stabilisers that significantly reduce the amount of ultraviolet light transmitted through the laminate.

First Published Wednesday, 15 April 2009
Results of the study indicated that children who received over-the-counter melatonin treatments experienced significant improvements in total night sleep durations, sleep latency times, and sleep-onset times. Mean sleep duration was longer on melatonin than placebo by 21 minutes, sleep-onset latency was shorter by 28 minutes and sleep-onset time was earlier by 42 minutes.
According to the senior author, Beth L. Goodlin-Jones, PhD of the M.I.N.D Institute at the University of California Davis Health System in Sacramento, Calif., treatment with over-the-counter melatonin supplements benefits children of all ages, which helps alleviate some of the additional stress that parents of special-needs children experience.
"Sleep onset problems at the beginning of the night are very troublesome for children and their families," said Goodlin-Jones. "Sometimes children may take one to two hours to fall asleep and often they disrupt the household during this time."
Authors report that sleep problems are reported in up to 89 percent of children with autism and 77 percent of children with FXS, the most common form of inherited mental impairment ranging from learning problems to mental retardation, and also the most commonly known cause of autism. Dyssomnia (difficulty falling asleep and frequent nighttime awakenings) are among the most commonly reported problems. Researchers hypothesize that difficulty sleeping in these children is increased due to abnormal levels of melatonin, a natural hormone secreted from the pineal gland that is believed to promote sleep at night.
The study included information from 12 children between the ages of 2 to 15.25 years. Sleep quality and quantity were measured both objectively and subjectively. Five participants met diagnostic criteria for autism, 3 for FXS, 3 for FXS and ASD, and 1 for FXS alone.
Participants were given two weeks' supply of either melatonin or a placebo. After they completed the two week dosage they were then crossed over to the alternate treatment for an additional two weeks. All participants were assessed for autism and received DNA testing for the diagnosis of FXS.
Authors recommend that in addition to the use of over-the-counter melatonin supplements, behavior therapies and sleep hygiene practices should be used to manage sleep problems in children with autism and FXS.

1. Joe left…
i use melatonin in a product for energizing the body. I found out about it at the live forever blog chat room: http://letslivelonger.blogspot.com/2009/04/sleep-better-you-can-do-it.html
but it works great. I've also learned to keep a more steady schedule and eat at regular times.

An old military friend of Blue's comes to stay with us, and suddenly I have two muscled men surrounding me. Before I can take a breath, we're diving into something dirty together—something dangerous. Dangerous because three is a crowd.
This is Blue's best friend, and one of us will have to leave.
Nervous, I glance at Blue. He's watching me, lids low, a dark expression on his face. He knows exactly what he's doing, and I think he likes it. It's some kind of tease, an extension of their friendly competitiveness, natural and somehow intimate.
So intimate it makes me wonder if they've ever done more than tease.
My eyes widen. "Have you and him ever…?"
The corner of Blue's mouth lifts. "What's that, beautiful?"
"You know," I stammer. "Shared a girl."
The words come out in a rush, and I know from the sultry, smug looks on their faces that I'm right. "Not shared," Blue says. "Not exactly. But I watched sometimes, sure. We'd get a night off and head to the bar near base. There are, what? Two men for every woman there. Maybe more."
"Some girls like an audience," West says, the drawl in his voice more pronounced.
The room feels twenty degrees hotter as testosterone and arousal swirl in the air. I had no idea that Blue was kinky enough to watch a couple have sex—although he's been plenty kinky in other ways with just me and him. I imagine being some girl in a bar, being picked up by two men as big and strong and sexy as these two. It's overwhelming…and I realize I may not have to imagine it after all.
Blue watches me from slitted eyes.
My voice is shaking. "Did you want me to—"
"You don't have to do anything you don't want to, beautiful. We're just getting to know each other, after all."
It makes me wonder if he thinks I'll do more once I know West better. It makes me wonder if I even want to do more. Of course West is a handsome man, but being shared? "Umm."
Blue shifts in his chair slightly, so my leg is trapped around his, and I'm slightly more exposed—facing West fully. "Maybe we could give him something to see," he murmurs. "A nice little memory to bring to bed with him. Would he like that?"
West is completely still, lean body full of tension. "Christ, yes." He pushes back in his chair, his expression more pain than pleasure. "Only if you're okay, Hannah. Only if…"
"I'm okay," I say, stronger now. God, if there's one thing I know how to do, it's to give a man a show. "I want to."
Just like Blue and West think all they can do is fight, all I can do is dance. And this isn't even dancing for strangers. This is dancing for the man I love—and his best friend.
Except dancing isn't what Blue has in mind.

Most men only see what they want to. The flirty stripper, the gloss and glitter and sex.
They don't know I dance to the songs in my head–to the psalms I can't forget.
I learned about power from within holy walls, always following the scriptures, always obedient until the day I escaped. No matter how much paint I wear, I can never cover up the girl they made. My conditioning runs too deep.
Ivan sees what I am.
That's the thing about showing a mouse to a cat. He wants to play. And it's terrifying, even for me. Because the only thing darker than my past is his.

A Toast to the Astoria Hotel in St. Petersburg, Russia
A Russian icon in the Art Nouveau style on St. Isaac's Square near the Neva River, the Astoria evokes a Belle Époque world gone by
This year the Hotel Astoria celebrates its 100th anniversary in St. Petersburg, Russia. I'm celebrating, too, because I got to stay there one white winter shortly after it was purchased and refurbished by the British hotelier Sir Rocco Forte in 1997. Other grand hotels may be more famous, but the Astoria holds its own place of pride among them.
A Russian icon in the Art Nouveau style on St. Isaac's Square near the Neva River, the Astoria evokes a Belle Epoque world of grand dukes, ballerinas and Fabergé eggs. Everyone from Rasputin to Isadora Duncan stayed there, drinking tea from gold-rimmed teacups made by the czar's favorite Lomonosov porcelain factory or swilling Russian Standard vodka at its velvet and wood-lined Kandinsky Bar.
All that was swept away by the Bolshevik Revolution, but the hotel soldiered on. Lenin gave a speech from its balcony in 1919 and during World War II Hitler planned to mark the city's surrender in the Astoria, though Leningrad endured the 900-day German siege, proving the Führer premature.
The Astoria is sumptuous in an Old World way, not over-the-top like other modernized grand hotels, with soaring, chandelier-bedizened ceilings, voluminous swagged drapes, vanilla ice cream-colored molding and red-carpeted staircases. My room had a foyer separated from the sleeping chamber by etched-glass doors and a hand-embroidered bedspread, blissfully quiet even though its window looked directly over busy St. Isaac's Square. There I watched snow coat the gold dome of the cathedral, sat reading Robert K. Massie's Nicholas and Alexandra or dressed for the ballet at the nearby Mariinsky Theatre.
As part of the centennial celebration, special boxes at the Mariinsky are available to hotel guests, and jazz evenings return to the Astoria, a tradition begun in the 1920s. If you go, please raise a Russian Standard on the rocks in at the Kandinsky Bar. I'll be doing the same in spirit.

We are planning to use Google Analytics in our organization and I am in charge for setting it up. I was wondering how to deal with multiple environments. We sure do not want to collect data during development and QA (or maybe collect data to a different analytics account), but we want to when the site goes to production (obviously).
- How do you deal with multiple environments and Google Analytics ?
- Do you setup multiple accounts for Google Analytics and use either one depending on the environement ?
We're using ASP.NET 2.0, if that matters.

Love AkaashVani Movie Download
Kartik Tiwari and Nushrat BharuchaDirector: Luv RanjanRating: ****In one of the film's high dramatic moments shot on a small deserted railway station in the night, the film's protagonists, now estranged by an unfortunate series of circumstances, sit on the bench and... well, they sob. Yes, they simply cry their hearts out. First, the girl. Then in a melancholic celebration of the me-too syndrome, the boy, now alas no longer a boy (and he smokes to prove it), also breaks into little sobs that build up into a wail as the shehnai, indicative of a cruel marital joke, plays in the background.The sequence in the hands of a lesser director would have fallen flat on its sobbing face. Luv Ranjan has the punch-filled boys-will-be-boys sagaPyaar Ka Punchnamabehind him to prove his solid grip over the grammar of the hearts of the young and the confused.Akaash (Kartik Tiwari) and Vani (Nushrat Bharucha) seem clueless about what they really want out of life, or from each other. Is Akaash fooling around with her in the college ? Is he serious in his filmy antics? Or filmy in his serious antics?Ranjan's screenplay takes the lovers from the corny escapades and frigid philosophising of the college campus to the precipice of heartbreak. The journey, given a vivid visual manifestation by Sudhir K. Chaudhuri's fluid camera work, is made with ample feeling and remarkable restrain.Unlike other contemporary celluloid raconteurs, Ranjan is not fearful of silences. He doesn't fill up every conceivable nook and corner of the storytelling with words and music, though I must state here that Hitesh Sonik's background music and the songs in the later part of the film go a long way in building an appealing case for the lead pair's star-crossed relationship. If Akaash and Vani seem so lost without each other, it is a lot to do with the way their emotions are pinned down by the words and the music that underline the course of their togetherness.On many occasions, Ranjan allows the lead pair to share silences. A rarity in today's cinema, where it is presumed that the average moviegoer has the attention-span of a sparrow looking for twigs before the rain starts pelting down. There are long meditative stretches of just simple non-verbal communication between the protagonists. It is a risk to allow audiences to get restive. But a risk worth taking.Ranjan's lovers come across as people who do what they do not to impress others, but simply because their heart tells them to behave the way they are shown. Both the lead actors are extremely effective in showing their character's innerworld. Nushrat Bharucha has an author-backed role as the girl who must sacrifice her love to make her parents happy. Not exactly the most novel of ideas. The sincerity with which the young almost-new actress approaches her part, propels it to a level beyond the mundane.Yes, you feel the girl is trapped in a marriage of compromise where the cruelty is so intangible and prone to sarcasm, that it seems negligible from the outside. Ranjan shows Vani's suffocation through some disturbing scenes of marital rape. Outwardly, Vani's husband is no brute. She carries no signs of his cruelty on her body. It is worse. The soul gets wounded.In a languorously-shot lengthy stretch of post-marital escape into Utopian happiness, we see Vani united with her lover again. They spend time together, frolic in the snow, live out some of the dreams they had dreamt during courtship. They don't talk much. And when they do, the words are never meant to impress us. For a change, the couple seems to be talking to each other rather than to an imaginary audience.Though the film belongs to the female protagonist, Kartik Tiwari manages to hold his own with an endearing performance far removed from what he attempted in the director'sPyaar Ka Punchnama. Both Kartik and Nushrat are here to stay.Though there are patches of aridity in the relationship (what was Akaash doing while Vani was suffering in malfunctional domesticity?), this is a very good film about a bad marriage, or what havoc a wrong decision about one's life can create.To his credit, Ranjan is able to hold the lovers' predicament in place. He has a keen eye for the inner life of his protagonists. Ranjan quietly sucks us into the story of Akaash and Vani.Suffused in contemplative silences and deriving its dramatic energy from the age-old debate on arranged versus love marriages,Akaash Vaniis thoughtful and absorbing, not prone to tripping over with nervous anxiety and excessive energy to hold our attention.The world ofAkaash Vaniis far removed from the bantering bawdy backchat ofPyaar Ka Punchnama. But that is the beauty of the second film. It tells you that the director is not frozen in his initial world.With first-rate performances by both Nushrat and Kartik, this is one love story you can't afford to miss.

How Much Homeowners Insurance Do You Need?When buying a home you think about the mortgage and the bills associated with owning a home. But, just as important is to figure out what your homeowners insurance will cost.
It's especially to figure out the cost of homeowners insurance to get an accurate budget your living expenses. What is the right amount?
The simple answer is that it depends. There are several factors that can determine how much you will pay for your homeowners insurance. Choose a Deductible That's Right for You Just like with a car, your deductible will impact the cost of your homeowners insurance. If you pick a plan with a high deductible, the annual fee for your insurance coverage most likely will be lower. However, if you have to make a claim for repairs to your home, your out-of-pocket cost will be higher. On the other hand, a low deductible will probably cost you more up front, but you will pay a smaller amount if you have a claim. Determine the Value of Your Home and Property If you're buying an insurance policy to cover a home that's worth $250,000, you're going to pay more than someone whose home is worth half that amount. A solid assessment of what your home is worth will help determine the right amount of coverage you need. The value of your personal belongings also has a lot to do with the value of your home. If you're living in a home worth $150,000, but your belongings that are worth $50,000, you will will want a policy that covers both these amounts. Otherwise, if something happens, you could still be at a loss, even with insurance coverage. Your Claim History Unfortunately, the price you pay for homeowners coverage can also be affected by your past insurance history. Homeowners who had fewer claims typically pay less for insurance than those who have more claims. One of the considerations that all insurers have to keep in mind is your level of risk to the insurance company. Also consider

Ivan Kral
Review by Victoria Large
Posted on 24 September 2011
Source 16mm print
Categories American Punk
When The White Stripes filmed their first concert DVD, which was released in 2004, they chose to use Super 8 cameras instead of the modern digital equipment that was obviously available to them. The choice was aesthetic - a means of preserving, and indeed self-consciously amplifying - the band's mystique. I mention this because it feels relevant to discussion of the virtues of Ivan Kral and Amos Poe's legendary concert documentary The Blank Generation, a grainy, black-and-white Super 8 chronicle of the nascent New York punk scene. In an age where HQ footage of a gig from to last night could well be available to view on YouTube the next morning, it's easy to imagine viewers losing patience with The Blank Generation's lo-fi look, collage-like editing (In this year's doc Blank City, Poe copped to taking speed in order to finish editing the movie on a tight deadline.), and out-of-sync sound. But on the other hand, viewers with an interest in this era in New York's history, and particularly lovers of the music featured in the film, could find themselves bewitched by The Blank Generation's dreamlike tour of a now-bygone, then-burgeoning scene.
Some concert films have a welcome demystifying quality. It can be a relief to see live, humanizing footage of legendary performers if we're more accustomed to seeing posed photographs on record sleeves. By contrast, The Blank Generation's no-budget tactics lend its subject matter a notable sense of unreality. The performers look iconic in black-and-white, and iconic they are: there are appearances from Patti Smith, The Ramones, Blondie, Television, Talking Heads, New York Dolls, The Heartbreakers, and Wayne (now Jayne) County. Almost any still from the film could be mistaken for a famous rock and roll photograph.
Even when one's eye drifts to endearing, unexpected little details - a smile from Patti Smith, Joey Ramone's dirty Keds, David Byrne's chipped tooth - there's a palpable distance from the performers that has only been compounded by time. Though there are some live performances on the soundtrack, they are never synched with the imagery, so there are moments where a performer is mouthing words but we hear an instrumental; and Kral and Poe sometimes switch to a different track mid-song only to switch back again, like fussy music fans toying indecisively with their radio. In short, there's never any illusion that you're really at CBGB, never any sense that Debbie Harry or Wayne County is shimmying onstage in front of you. The Blank Generation is a film made by insiders of the scene that it documents, but most of us watching it today remain conspicuous outsiders.
Yet to say that the film (perhaps accidentally) keeps us at a distance is not to suggest that The Blank Generation is not a worthy and enjoyable piece of work. Your mileage may vary; particularly when it comes to segments dedicated to less familiar bands, but the film is unique in its status as a punk document that is entirely of its time and place. What's more, The Blank Generation was a key film in New York's emerging No Wave cinema, making it a particularly potent meeting of cinema and punk rock. It screened as the final feature film in the HFA's "American Punk" rep series, and in that sense it offered an interesting feeling of ending at the beginning. The Blank Generation features New York City sounds that would resonate across the country and across the pond, and in some ways make all of the other films in this series possible. In that regard, The Blank Generation is an indispensable piece of film and music history.

Real estate agents should always explain what they actually do and why they are going to do something for you, especially when it's a present goes against what you told the whole bunch.
Rich people know any time they own the land they really control great wealth. A rich person is just as rich as his real estate. Land, since time in memorial has been used to measure real wealth and true blessing. It is those who are smart that goes after land. Many people think that it is only extremely rich that build companies. I advise people who need to prosper to houses.

Seeking already possess a personal home, I will advice anyone to build another home.
Look a great agent by using a firm escalating known deal with luxury real estate. Depending on your own live just a little boutique agency may have built a fine reputation for that market. By comparison the big players in the luxury real estate market where you are in a position to the large firms automobile associates.

When I made the move to "real estate agent", To begin with . to commence buying specific leads are the real deal estate agents to jumpstart my business; just like I did as a home loan broker. Require was that the leads are the real deal estate agents were nowhere near the actual of the leads for mortgage forex brokers.
As simple as entire body sounds everyone surprising what number of people don't do things i have explained here. They loose focus and quickly revert to old random habits and actions; then they get random results. Your success in the commercial real estate industry is centred around your choices and you skill to buy some new habits along at the things that really matter for a business. Obtain the message? Happy hunting!

I love doing craft projects with Lucky. We've had a lot of success with $1 kids from craft stores and using glue and stickers to put things together. It would be a lot cheaper if I designed my own crafts, so I wanted to see what simple crafts I could come up with that involved minimal cutting and giving him a lot of chance to glue.
The green felt I'm using is left over from the Dinosaur Hooded Sweatshirts I sewed for the boys. The blue and white felt is left over from their R2D2 and BB8 Halloween Costumes (which isn't on the blog yet but you can check it out on my Instagram account.)
These projects are very simple, but I still wanted to provide step by step instructions to remove any guesswork so you can do it, too. I highly recommend using a craft felt glue versus standard white glue because that doesn't sink into the felt as fast so things have a better chance at staying glued the first time.
Christmas Trees
- Cut out 3 triangles and one little rectangle.
- Glue the rectangle to the bottom back of one of the triangles.
- Glue the remaining two triangles on top of the first triangle. Voila! You have a tree
- Decorate the tree with sequins or glitter glue. (With an older child you could decorate right away, with a toddler I'd recommend waiting for the tree to dry before decorating.)
- Cut out two triangles. (I held two pieces of felt together while cutting so they would be the same size)
- Flip one triangle over and glue on top of the second triangle as shown.
- Decorate with sequins or glitter.
I completed one of each of the projects by myself while Lucky was taking his nap. This way I could make some that fit the vision in my head before I allow Lucky to have complete creative control. I find that it helps stop me from "correcting" him.
When I was waiting for my projects to dry, Lucky saw them and got really excited. He couldn't wait to make his very own Christmas trees! We glued the pieces together and then waited for them to dry before decorating.
Menorah (or chanukiah as Lucky likes to "correct" me.)
It was hard for him to pick up the sequins, so it might be easier to (gasp) use glitter with a 3 year old than sequins, but nevertheless he had a blast.
While Lucky was busy gluing, I was inspired to attempt a more complicated felt project.
Menorah (or chanukiah as Lucky likes to "correct" me.)
- For the Menorah itself, cut out a semi-circle, a small triangle, a small rectangle, and then a rectangle large enough to fit all of the pieces.
- Cut 9 skinny rectangles for the candles (try to make sure they are thin enough so they can all fit on the menorah.)
- Cut 9 little orange diamonds to be the flames.
- Glue the pieces together.
- If desired, use some glitter glue (I used glitter puffy paint) to make the flames sparkle.
- Decorate your menorah with sequins.
At the time I was writing this post, I hadn't had a chance to do the Menorah with Lucky. Since this one has so many more pieces I know that it will be harder. However, since I've decorated a window ledge with our bedazzled holiday items Lucky has been asking to make his own Chanukiah every day. I now need to wait for a Rowdy nap so we have some uninterrupted gluing time.
There are so many pieces this time but I plan to let Lucky take it step by step. I'll show him my version and ask him how he thinks the pieces should go together. I'll give him the menorah pieces first, then the candles and finally the flames. I can't wait to see what he comes up with!
This was a two-for-one project for me. I added some more holiday cheer (especially some Jewish symbols since our tree sort of dominates a lot of the decorating process) AND had a lot of fun crafting with Lucky.

Ice racks are personal, like fine cars and wives. Every climber's rack is different, and putting one together can be as easy or as complicated as you like. Mine changes as the season progresses and may even change daily, depending on what and where I'm climbing. Since I'm already carrying more weight than when I'm rock climbing (excluding my holiday beer gut), I like to keep my rack as light and simple as possible. For local cragging in normal ice conditions on routes like Standard, Dracula, Gully #1 etc., I bring 8-17cm screws, 4 quickdraws, 9 free biners, 8 single-length runners, 2 cordelettes, 2-3 lockers and a belay/rappel device. This is definitely a minimalist approach, figuring on 2 screws per anchor. If the ice is less than perfect and you need 3 screw anchors, like much of this year, you'll only have 2 screws left for the pitch. So, if you're at your limit, bring more screws. The idea here is to be as safe as possible, in what is basically an unsafe sport!
For big routes like at Lake Willoughby, I'll add 3-4 more screws. Heading to the Ravine for a long Alpine route, I'll still bring 6-8 screws substituting a few shorties for some of the 17's and adding a small selection of pins, a set of wire nuts, a few tri-cams and a specter. I'll also make sure I have extra webbing and a hook to make v-threads for retreats.
In thin ice conditions, I'll substitute a few short screws and bring wires and Tri-cams and maybe a Specter (they can work ok in frozen cracks, but don't count on them for much). If I'm familiar with the route I'm climbing or have good beta I may add a piece or two of appropriate rock gear. For example I will take numbers 1, 2, and 3 Camelots for a route like the Penguin in thin conditions..
Ultimately of course it's not so much what you carry, but knowing how to use it. Learn how to place protection properly, understand what works, be efficient. Placing lots of crappy screws is not a substitute for good skills! Understand the consequences of a fall. I still believe in the prime axiom of ice climbing; "falling is not an option." Always anchor and protect your belayer, be wary of climbing below others and above all climb safe.
Putting together an ice-rack from scratch? It's not cheap, but here's a suggestion for a good all around rack that you could use in varying configurations to cover most anything in the Whites. As you might notice, I'm not a fan of short screws. You can always tie off a 17, but you can't make a 10 any longer!
Basic 2 - 22cm ice screws 8 - 17 cm ice screws 2 - 7 or 10 cm ice screws 6 - quick draws 8 - single length runners/slings 10-16 - biners 2 - cordelettes 2-3 - locking biners Optional 1 - v-thread tool & webbing 1 - thin baby angle 1 - small angle 1 - medium angle 1 - knifeblade 1 - lost arrow
Basic 2 - 22cm ice screws 8 - 17 cm ice screws 2 - 7 or 10 cm ice screws 6 - quick draws 8 - single length runners/slings 10-16 - biners 2 - cordelettes 2-3 - locking biners
Optional 1 - v-thread tool & webbing 1 - thin baby angle 1 - small angle 1 - medium angle 1 - knifeblade 1 - lost arrow
You can always include assorted rock gear from your summer rack, depending on the route and conditions. Mixed routes may require anything from your complete rock rack, to just a set of draws.

Willis Earl Beal excellent 2012 record Acousmatic Sorcery was an effortless mishmash of lo-fi bedroom pop, winsome folk, and visceral blues. "Everything unwinds." the first cut from sophomore release Nobody Knows. floated light as a feather into the folkie camp. Backed by an interloping synth, Beal was delicately strumming a guitar with "rust in my soul," while trying to define the mystery of the lover at the center of the unwinding spiral that has become his life.
Any tenderness found in the song is throttled by follow-up "Too Dry to Cry" a boot-stomping, faux delta-blues number that could've been pinned in 2013 or 1927. The opening guitar figure is dripping sweat from the sweltering Mississippi sun while Beal begs the Lord to not be left "hanging like a spider with no fly." The song borders on the spiritual, but is kept out of the pearly gates by Beal's wandering eye and his "pitchfork prong." Like much of Beal's scant discography, it's a contradictory affair. His mind is on heaven, but his body's still stuck on Earth.

On the plains of West Texas, new wind farms can be built for just $22 per megawatt-hour. In the Arizona and Nevada deserts, solar projects are less than $40 per megawatt-hour. Compare those figures with the U.S. average lifetime cost of $52 for natural gas plants and about $65 for coal.
Environmental rules and government subsidies are no longer the key drivers for clean power — economics are.
That's why Donald Trump will have limited influence on the U.S. utility industry's push toward renewable energy, according to executives and investors. Companies including NextEra Energy, Duke Energy and others that invest billions in power plants are already moving forward with long-term plans to generate electricity with cleaner and more economic alternatives.
"We said before the election that whoever is elected president, we would be continuing our efforts to go to a low-carbon fleet and also pursue renewables," says Tom Williams, a spokesman for Duke, the second-largest U.S. utility owner.
Wind and solar have been the two biggest sources of electricity added to U.S. grids since 2014 as utilities closed a record number of aging coal-fired generators. Trump has derided clean energy and assailed environmental regulations that hinder jobs, while pledging to revive the mining industry. In an interview Tuesday, Trump softened his view, telling the New York Times that he has an ''open mind'' on the Paris climate accord and noting that "there is some connectivity" between human activity and climate change.
And it's not just cost that makes clean energy attractive to utilities — it's time. A solar farm can go up in months to meet incremental increases in utility demand; it takes years to permit, finance and build the giant boilers and exhaust systems that make up a coal plant, and they can last for a generation. A four-year presidential term is hardly a tick in that energy clock, and companies are already planning projects that will commence after Trump leaves office, even if he serves two terms.
Uneconomical Coal
Over the next four years, utilities have announced plans to close 12 gigawatts worth of coal plants, largely because cheap natural gas has made them uneconomical — the equivalent of switching off a dozen nuclear reactors.
Trump will have some levers at his disposal to influence how they'll be replaced. He has vowed, for instance, to kill President Barack Obama's Clean Power Plan, which would require states to reduce emissions from power plants. And two federal subsidies — the investment tax credit and the production tax credit — remain key components to making solar and wind affordable.
He hasn't indicated whether he'll push to repeal the tax credits for wind and solar, which were extended for five years at the end of 2015 with bipartisan support. And the Clean Power Plan, which has been suspended pending a U.S. Supreme Court ruling, isn't scheduled to take effect until 2022. Utilities, meanwhile, are marching ahead.
"We are moving forward with plans that call for replacing some of our coal generation with natural gas, low-cost wind energy and expanding solar options for customers," says Frank Prager, vice president of policy and federal affairs for Xcel Energy, which owns utilities in eight states.
Even without the Clean Power Plan, Bloomberg New Energy Finance forecasts that wind and solar energy will grow 33 percent over the next two years, adding 40 gigawatts. A lot of that will be driven by state, rather than federal, policies.
More than half of U.S. states require utilities to incorporate renewable energy into their generation mix, including the traditionally Republican strongholds of Texas, Arizona and Montana. California and New York have set goals to source half of their power from clean energy by 2030.
"I'm skeptical that there is a lot you can do to stop this coal plant replacement cycle from happening," says Bryan Martin, a managing director at D.E. Shaw & Co., a New York hedge fund that manages about $38 billion and invests in wind and solar projects. "Renewables are the cheapest form of new power in most of these markets."
Even if renewable energy loses support from the West Wing, it remains popular in corner offices across America. Electricity-hungry tech giants including Google, Amazon and others have increasingly sourced energy in recent years directly from wind and solar farms, signing at least 20 power-purchase agreements totaling 2.3 gigawatts in 2015 alone. Over the next nine years, companies have pledged to buy another 17.4 gigawatts, according to New Energy Finance.
"Wal-Mart will continue to build stores, and Apple will continue to build energy-intensive data centers that will be powered by renewables," says Kyle Harrison, a New Energy Finance analyst in New York. "We don't expect the election to have a significant impact on renewable energy."
There are indirect ways Trump may impede clean energy. His proposal to cut corporate tax rates could blunt the effectiveness of the tax credits for wind and solar. He could cut research-and-development funding. Rolling back environmental regulations may make coal more competitive. And Trump will have the opportunity to appoint at least two members to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.
Utilities aren't waiting to see how it pans out.
"We'd love to see more funding to ensure that fossil fuels can stay in that framework," says Nick Akins, chief executive officer of American Electric Power Co., which owns utilities from Texas to Ohio. "But as we go through this process, I think from AEP's perspective, we're going to continue the investments that we're making."

For stocks, Probability Of Bankruptcy is normalized value of Z-Score. For funds and ETFs it is derived from a multi-factor model developed by Macroaxis.The score is used to predict probability of a firm or a fund going into bankruptcy or experiencing financial distress within next 24 months. Unlike Z-Score, Probability Of Bankruptcy is the value between 0 and 100 indicating the actual probability the firm will be distressed in the next 2 fiscal years.
How odd, earlier this year they said Sony had 79% chance which has dropped to 45, and they had Nintendo at a much higher position.
If things change that drastically that quick, its clear their criteria for determining bankruptcy likelihood is too loose.
This is a number that changes almost daily. if Nintendo announced Zelda Today, you would see the number drop a ton. Its pointless.
First probability is from 0-1. Nothing can be over 100% probability, which is 1.
Nintendo going bankrupt in the next 2 fiscal years is next to impossible. The real probability would be around 7% just because even with the mass amount of money they could still go bankrupt if they make millions of stupid decisions.
But that isn't gonna happen
Yep, this system is broken. First the Sony thing (Sony may have trouble, but not to the extent it was stated back then, IMO, and they're on route to recovery). Now we have this, a estimate for a company that, Wii U having a hard time or not, will not fall in 2 years time.
I doubt it, Nintendo is swimming in cash. They could lose money for years without having to absorb debt.
It's kinda a shame. If they had more pressure, they would publish their wonderful games on other systems for the cash.

Are there criteria? Are those criteria universal?
When does an author become 'successful?'
- Selling a book?
- Earning a living?
- Selling movie rights?
- Hitting the bestseller list?
- Having 1000 books in print? 10,000? 100,000? 1,000,000? 10,000,000?
- Getting on television?
- Winning awards?
- Getting ten emails a week from fans? 100? 1000?
- Having 100 website hits a day? 100,000?
- Being ranked in the Top 50 on Amazon?
- Getting paid for speaking?
- Receiving fan mail?
- Being known within your genre?
- Being known by the general public?
- Earning out your advance?
- Getting a six figure deal? A seven figure deal?
- Having your backlist still in print?
- Being sold in Walmart?
- Getting on Oprah?
- Teaching and helping others?
- Trying your best?
- Being happy?
I know bestselling authors and self-published authors and many in between. I know writers with a lot of talent who haven't gotten published, and those who have gotten published without a lot of talent. I know that hard work plays a part, but so does luck, and luck favors the prepared.
But most of all, I know that if I ever want to be successful, my definition of success has to change.
The day I no longer need any kind of validation is the day I'll truly be successful.
Does anyone want to validate me on that?
