The encouraging decline in deaths from cancer is continuing.
According to the American Cancer Society's annual report, over the last 20 years, there's been a 20% drop in Americans' risk of dying of cancer. The researchers estimate that there will be 1,655,540 new cases of cancer and 585,720 cancer deaths in 2014. Lung, colon, prostate and breast cancers will account for the most fatal types of cancer.
The decline was especially dramatic for middle-age black men. In the last two decades, their death rates have been sliced by 50%. But because incidence and death rates from cancer among this group are among the highest in the nation, even with this drop, more black men continue to develop and die of cancer than whites or Asian Americans, who have the lowest rates of the disease.
What's keeping rates so high among black men? They continue to have higher rates of prostate cancer than any other group in the U.S., and scientists have identified some gene variants that are more common among black men that are associated with an increased risk of the disease. Other factors, such as lack of health insurance, poor access to health care services, and lower screening rates, could also be contributing to the trend.
On the more positive side, the report found that one of the major factors contributing to dramatic drop in overall cancer risk for black men, is their lower rate of smoking.
"This was overwhelmingly driven by a combination of smoking cessation as well as black men not starting to smoke as teenagers in the 1960s, 70s and 80s," says Dr. Otis W. Brawley, the chief medical director of the American Cancer Society. "People who started smoking in the 60s and 70s are really dying of lung cancer right now. For some reason this decline in black men was driven by a decline in death rate of lung cancer in black men."
While anti-smoking campaigns have become more targeted to specific smoking populations, Brawley suspects that cost may be a more potent contributor to lower smoking rates among black men. "One of the things that we found is that really has driven smoking rates down is the price of the cigarettes. It is conceivable that black men have been much more sensitive to the increasing cost of the price of cigarettes than white men," says Brawley.
That trend will hopefully continue and, Brawley hopes, contribute to more declines in smoking, and smoking-related cancers, among all ethnic groups. While the drops among black men are encouraging, he says, renewed focus on prevention efforts, such as regular cancer screening, could make the downward shift in cancer deaths even more dramatic in coming years.

EU IMPORT. BLACK VINYL 2xLP. 2011 POSTHUMOUS RELEASE w/ RARITIES, ALT TAKES, PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED RECORDINGS, ETC.
"Following her tragic passing, some of the producers and musicians who worked closely with Amy Winehouse, among them Mark Ronson and Salaam Remi, spent time listening over the many recordings that Amy had made, before, during, and after the release of Frank and Back to Black. It was said by all who worked with Amy that she never sang or played a song the same way twice. It quickly became apparent to Salaam and Mark that they had a collection of songs that deserved to be heard, a collection of songs that were a fitting treatment to Amy the artist and, as importantly, Amy the friend."

[edit | edit source]javaLatex is a program creating PDF versions of Wikibooks textbooks. It is able to download book structure, chapter text and graphics from Wikibooks server, generate list of authors and table of contents.
The application can be also used to convert single Wikipedia articles.
[edit | edit source]javaLatex does not convert most of templates automatically. Some templates remain commented out in source code, so to make them appear correctly you might have to use Perl/Python script or implement handling of these templates in javaLatex source code.
The program is not capable of handling of all odd usages of MediaWiki syntax, so sometimes errors in parsing LaTeX source may appear and in such situations you may be required to edit generated files and fix errors. Consequently, knowledge of LaTeX is very useful when dealing with javaLatex, but with some amount of luck it won't be required.
javaLatex won't detect lines in source code listings which are too long, nor will it fix them. If your book covers a programming language, you should look through the output PDF and check if source code exceeds margin.
Since pdflatex tool, which translates LaTeX code to PDF, does not support GIF images, books using GIF images won't be translated and will cause pdflatex errors. javaLatex downloads GIF images, but you will have to convert them manually to PNG and replace GIF with PNG in LaTeX sources. See LaTeX/Importing Graphics for more information.
The program cannot assure that graphics and tables used in text will look good. The larger the image is, the greater is the chance of damaging text layout around it. You should look through the PDF and manually fix the mistakes. LaTeX/Floats, Figures and Captions is a great source of information in this field.
Example output
[edit | edit source]See Image:How To Assemble A Desktop PC.pdf (generated by Hagindaz program, see below). pl:Grafika:C.pdf is created with the most current version (the book is written in Polish).
Basic information
[edit | edit source]Program home page, when you can find binaries and the source code, is http://code.google.com/p/javalatex/. Blog http://javalatex.blogspot.com/ serves as a placeholder for announcements and is available as an Atom news feed.
javaLatex was created from Wiki2LaTeX code released to public domain by Hagindaz. It is free software released under MIT license and written in Java.
[edit | edit source]- Java Runtime Environment 1.5 or newer
- LaTeX distribution
You can use Kile to edit generated LaTeX source.
Netbeans 6 IDE is recommended to edit source code.
[edit | edit source]Before you run the program, you have to edit conversion.properties file.
To get help on running the program, type
java -jar javaLatex.jar --help
http://code.google.com/p/javalatex/wiki/CommandLineOptions gives extensive explanation of command line options.
The simplest program invocation is:
java -jar javaLatex.jar --title="Raising Chickens" --genall pdflatex main.tex
[edit | edit source]- I've got a table that is so wide that it exceeds page
- You have to bound size of at least the widest column. See LaTeX/Tables#Text wrapping in tables
- I get "! LaTeX Error: Something's wrong--perhaps a missing \item."
- Perhaps there's a verbatim or enumerate enviroment inside a table. Change column specifier from c to eg. p{5cm}. See LaTeX/Tables#Other environments inside tables
- I get "! Missing $ inserted."
- If there's a math text inside a table – see above.
- Oh my god! Everything crashes and I can't find the solution!
- Try to locate the error - first remove text from chapter that causes error. If this makes the error disappear, bring the chapter text back and try to remove a smaller part of text. After several attempts you should isolate a place where the error resides. Try to fix it and if it does not help - simply remove it and add the text manually.

Oral piercings can be bad for your health. Because your mouth contains millions of bacteria, infection is a common complication of oral piercing. Pain and swelling are other side effects of piercing. Your tongue (a popular piercing site in the mouth) could swell large enough to close off your airway. Piercings can also cause uncontrollable bleeding or nerve damage. The jewelry itself also presents some hazards. You can choke on any studs, barbells or hoops that come loose in your mouth, and contact with the jewelry can chip or crack your teeth.

Editorial Cartoon by Graeme MacKay, The Hamilton Spectator – Wednesday June 28, 2017
Councillors vote to sell disputed Dundas alley
The city is poised to close and sell a controversial Dundas alley regularly used by school children despite increasingly loud opposition from local residents.
Members of the public works committee voted unanimously Monday to sell a short section of unserviced lane parallel to Sydenham Street to adjacent landowner Len Medeiros, a well-known Dundas developer whose construction company does sewer and water work for the city.
David Jones, a spokesperson for many residents opposed to the sale, said he would speak to a lawyer about what opportunities exist to appeal the decision. But he also expressed hope city council would reverse the decision in a final vote required Wednesday.
More than 30 people publicly urged councillors to reject the proposed sale Monday, with several complaining about what they saw as the city's willingness to sell a public asset to a "well-connected" buyer over the objections of the larger community. Others suggested it was wrong to "reward" Medeiros after he previously paved a portion of the public alley without permission and briefly erected a fence to block pedestrian access last summer.
Medeiros declined an interview after the meeting, but Dundas Coun. Arlene VanderBeek publicly addressed allegations of favoritism ahead of Monday's vote.
"There is no special privilege involved here, for anyone," she said. "The issue of importance here is safety … safety for children and residents."
VanderBeek pointed to the city staff report, which cited traffic department concerns with residents — particularly children — exiting the alley mid-block on Alma Street on the way to a nearby school. There is no sidewalk on that side of the street, she noted, and no safe path to the nearest intersection with a city crossing guard.
The city could be liable, she argued, if children are encouraged to "jaywalk to get where they want to go."
Residents repeatedly argued the pedestrian-only lane was a safer, less dirty and noisy walking option than busier parallel streets like Sydenham. (Source: Hamilton Spectator)

The Trap Dipole antenna is a classical antenna in our series of HS4 Legendary Multiband Wire Antennas. It covers 6 bands, 10-15-20-30-40-80m. This is multi-band resonant antenna The performance characteristics is similar to a normal dipole and is driven through a 50 Ohm coaxial cable and features low SWR on all bands. The radiation pattern is bidirectional with broadside lobes.
The traps in a trap dipole are parallel-resonant tuned circuits that "trap" an RF signal to prevent it from passing beyond a specific point on a conductor (a wire, a metal tube, etc). At some other frequencies, however, the traps no longer act like "traps" and instead allow the RF to pass.
A trap-style antenna is not quite as efficient as a full-size dipole. Our Multi band dipole is a typical 6-band trap dipole antenna using 3 traps och each side. The traps block RF at a specific frequency, or allow it to pass. From an electrical standpoint, this effectively lengthens or shortens the antenna.
This antenna is deployed at a height of 12m (40 ft.) above average quality ground and the design accounts for ground absorption losses, antenna wire insulation dielectric losses, other structural losses, etc.

Hanukkah's Heart
Hanukkah's heart
A family's treasured recipes and rich history meld in a self-published cookbook
December 17, 2000
By CATHY THOMAS
The Orange County Register
The first edition of Judy Bart Kancigor's "Melting Pot Memories" sold out in six weeks in spring 1999. Since then, three more editions have been printed, with a total of more than 2,400 copies sold. There hasn't been any fancy merchandising campaign, simply word of mouth.
At first, she was surprised by brisk sales of her self-published cookbook. I'm not.
Recently, I visited her Fullerton home, seeking Hanukkah recipes. Delectable dishes to celebrate the eight-day Jewish festival commemorating the rededication of the Temple, the feast of lights that celebrates the small cruse of oil that lighted the Temple's holy lamps for eight days. (This year, Hanukkah begins Dec. 22).
Kancigor shared holiday dishes such as Aunt Hilda's Cherry Chili Chicken, a savory-sweet roast chicken dish with raisins and pitted black cherries (most probably from the '40s), and her incredible potato latkes, with an updated, reduced-fat option.
I got formulas for those mouthwatering specialties, but Kancigor and her captivating book left me with so much more than recipes from relatives.
She has captured the joy, wisdom and nostalgic history of the Rabinowitz family, tracing her grandparents' roots from Slonim (a city in Eastern Europe that is now part of Belarus, formerly Russia and before that, Poland) to suburbia.
Among the recipes, she weaves stories of Ellis Island in the early 1900s, the Great Depression and World War II, as well as recollections of her father, Jan Bart. Bart, a cantor and entertainer in early television, at the time of his death in 1971 had raised more funds for Israeli bonds than had any other performer.
There aren't any food photos, just portraits. Sepia-toned photos of the Rabinowitz family: grandparents, parents, children and grandchildren. Aunts, uncles and cousins.
But why would anyone want to read a book about someone else's family? Why does this first-time author's book intrigue cooks and noncooks alike?
I think it's because these heartwarming pages strike at the core of a family's courage, humor and pride. Stories about tradition and togetherness. Love as well as food.
The most common response that Kancigor hears from readers is regret over not having documented their own family stories and recipes.
"I didn't set out to write a cookbook," said Kancigor, mother of two and grandmother of three. "The cousins had gathered together in 1996, when my Aunt Estelle was dying. It occurred to me that we were losing one generation at the same time I was waiting for my first grandchild to be born. The next generation wouldn't know any of our history. Wouldn't know our food.
"I thought about our family recipes, and how they needed to be saved," she recalled, remembering the food-splattered pages of her Aunt Estelle's handwritten recipes. Her aunt's son brought the recipe-filled, well-worn black and white notebook to the hospital. Her aunt pointed out the recipes she thought should be included in the cookbook, which at that point was thought of exclusively as a "for family only" publication.
Kancigor turned to her cousins, asking for more recipes as well as photos, old clippings and remembrances. Soon, anyone related by blood or marriage was contributing to the book; 600 recipes from 156 relatives. In-laws of in-laws are considered part of the family, the extended family called mishpuchah in Yiddish.
She writes that mishpuchah is so much more than the English word for "family.''
"It includes cousins (all degrees) and in-laws (even their cousins and in-laws) and of course, machatunim, a word meaning your children's inlaws," she wrote.
And like most families, many of the Rabinowitz mishpuchah's culinary memories focus on religious holidays.
"Lighting the candles, I am transported to the Hanukkahs of my youth," she writes in her introduction to her potato latkes recipe, a favorite she says is the essential Hanukkah dish, because latkes (potato pancakes deep-fried in oil) represent the miracle of the small amount of oil that lasted eight days.
"For the Rabinowitz cousins, raised together as practically siblings, our childhood was the New York version of the movie Avalon (without the fire). ... There were so many of us that (grandfather) Papa Harry put a board on the children's table," she wrote.
"The highlight was the Hanukkah party. The piles of latkes! The mountains of presents! The noise! The excitement! The squabbles . ... "
But I imagine that table quieted down when those luscious latkes were served. Kancigor's latkes look like crispy-brown snowflakes. These lacy, almost-crunchy wonders are served either with applesauce or a dipping sauce made with a reduction of the pan juices from the Aunt Hilda's Cherry Chili Chicken, a Hanukkah entree.
Later, she said, after the Kancigor sons were born and the family moved to Fullerton (1972), her latkes became part of the Orange County neighborhood's holiday tradition.
"When my boys were growing up, every Hanukkah, I would make latkes by the hundreds, decorate platefuls, and they would take them to our non-Jewish neighbors," said Kancigor, a former English teacher and court reporter. "It became a tradition that the neighbors really looked forward to.
"I'm still in contact with our (former) next-door neighbors who have since moved to Oregon; they always said how they missed them. When I sent them my cookbook, the mom was thrilled that now she can make them herself."
The taste and smell of family recipes can bring back many memories. Thus was the case when Kancigor first tested her grandmother's recipe for Maple Walnut Cake. Her mother, Lillian Bart of Placentia, her "sous-chef and right arm," was on hand to help with the tasting.
"When I took the cake out of the oven, my mother tasted it and her mouth fell open," she said. "Tears welled up in her eyes as she explained that it was exactly like her mother's cake."
Mama Hinda's Maple Walnut Cake for Hanukkah, along with nostalgic chicken and heavenly latkes on the side.
Generations of treasured food memories forever bequeathed in a cookbook full of stories.

Currently, only one type of upload handler is available: UploadHandlerRaw
. This class accepts a data buffer at construction time. This buffer is copied internally into native code memory and then used by the UnityWebRequest
system when the remote server is ready to accept body data.
Upload Handlers also accept a Content Type string. This string is used for the value of the UnityWebRequest's Content-Type
header if you set no Content-Type
header on the UnityWebRequest itself. If you manually set a Content-Type
header on the UnityWebRequest object, the Content-Type
on the Upload Handler object is ignored.
If you do not set a Content-Type
on either the UnityWebRequest or the UploadHandler
, the system defaults to setting a Content-Type
of application/octet-stream
has a property disposeUploadHandlerOnDispose
, which defaults to true. If this property is true, when UnityWebRequest object is disposed, Dispose() will also be called on attached upload handler rendering it useless. If you keep a reference to upload handler longer than the reference to UnityWebRequest, you should set disposeUploadHandlerOnDispose to false.
byte[] payload = new byte[1024];
// ... fill payload with data ...
UnityWebRequest wr = new UnityWebRequest("http://www.mysite.com/data-upload");
UploadHandler uploader = new UploadHandlerRaw(payload);
// Sends header: "Content-Type: custom/content-type";
uploader.contentType = "custom/content-type";

NEW YORK — There's nothing more satisfying than a home-cooked meal, especially if it comes out of a can or a pouch.
As more people try their hand at mimicking sophisticated recipes from cooking shows and blogs, food companies are rolling out meal kits and starters that make amateur chefs feel like Emeril Lagasse or Rachael Ray in the kitchen.
Call it the next generation of dinner-in-box sets like Rice-A-Roni and Hamburger Helper that were rolled out as moms flooded the workforce in the '50s, '60s and '70s. But the new kits and starters go beyond just browning meat and throwing evaporated cheese and seasonings into boiling water — the idea is to make people feel like they're making their meals from scratch.
General Mills Inc. has a line of "Progresso Recipe Starters," which are pre-made sauces in flavors such as "Fire-Roasted Tomato" and "Creamy Portabella Mushroom" that can be a base for a variety of dishes. Kraft Food Group Inc.'s "Sizzling Salads" dinner kits pair a meat marinade with salad dressing: you provide all the other ingredients. And Campbell Soup Co. has "Skillet Sauces" that can be mixed with fresh meat and veggies. Total prep time: 15 minutes.
Scott Jones, a public relations specialist in Fort Worth, Texas, uses Kraft's Velveeta Skillets, a deluxe version of mac-n-cheese in a box with flavors such as Chicken Alfredo and Lasagna.
Jones likes that the box suggests ways to customize the recipe by doing things like using different types of meats. He says the creamy cheese packets are a step up from powder mixes. And he likes adding personal touches (Think: diced tomatoes and peppers.)
It's not the same as the pot roasts feasts that he cooks on Sundays but on weekdays it allows him to give his family a "satisfying meal, quickly and conveniently."
Cooking shortcuts long have been an American way of life, of course. But demand has grown for time-saving recipes as busy Americans eat more meals at home to save money. The NPD Group estimates the average number of meals eaten at home at 902 last year, up from 870 four years earlier.
At the same time, there's a growing "foodie culture" that values authenticity and fresh ingredients. It may be why sales of Rice-A-Roni — essentially a box of rice and powdered seasoning mix — have dropped 16 percent to $196 million from five years ago, according to the market researcher Euromonitor International.
The companies that make the new starters say it's too early to make sales projections but the hope is to appeal to the people who want it both ways: a home-cooked meal that doesn't require much sweat and labor. In particular, companies are aiming for those in their 20s and 30s whose cooking skills may be outmatched by their increasingly sophisticated tastes.
"Their definition of cooking is different," says Darren Serrao, who heads innovation for Campbell Soup, based in Camden, N.J. "Assembly is cooking."
Indeed, Kraft Sizzling Salads dinner kits aren't exactly your mother's "made from scratch" recipes.
They direct people to heat up some chicken with the marinade and toss a salad with the dressing. But in case aspiring home cooks need some extra guidance in their culinary adventures, Kraft provides cooking tutorials online.
In a video for the Chicken Caesar meal kit, a woman demonstrates how to squeeze the marinade over four chicken breasts in a frying pan. She then guides viewers through the steps of adding croutons and shredded cheese into a bowl of chopped lettuce. The finishing touch? Squirting in some Kraft dressing.
Progresso's sauces involve a little more work. For example, let's say you want beef stroganoff. All you need is two pounds of boneless beef sirloin, an onion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and a can of Progresso's Recipe Starters in Creamy Portabella Mushroom flavor. The dish takes 35 minutes from start to finish, according to the recipe on the can.
Making beef stroganoff from scratch, by contrast, would be a deeply involved ordeal, in large part because of the sauce, says Brendan Walsh, dean of culinary education at the Culinary Institute of America.
"You're dealing with stocks and reductions. It's a good 12-hour process," he says.
Although Walsh wouldn't put Progresso's version of beef stroganoff "in the realm of chef-dom," he notes that companies have gotten better at making products with improved taste and nutritional content. And given busy schedules, Walsh says such "survival cooking" is often an easy way to put a hot meal on the table.
Some starters are even more basic.
Land O' Lakes has "Saute Starters," cubes of butter that contain olive oil and are packed with the right mix of spices to make a dish, coming in flavors such as Italian Herb and Lemon Pepper.
Cooking instructions? Toss a square in a pan, add some meat, shrimp or fish, then serve with rice or pasta.
Peggy Ellingson, Land O' Lakes' vice president of innovation and new business development, promises that the aroma from the butter will have everyone asking what mom is cooking for dinner.
In other words, it's all part of the show.

Scientists at Oregon State University have found a way to convert tree cellulose into high-tech energy storage devices. Because cellulose is a key component of trees and the most abundant organic polymer on earth this discovery will have a profound impact in industry. Scientists were able to heat the tree cellulose in a furnace in the presence of ammonia to create the building block for supercapacitors for use in industrial electronic applications. Supercapacitors are extraordinarily, high-power energy devices for which production has been held back by cost and difficulty in producing high-quality carbon electrodes.
The new approach just discovered at OSU can produce nitrogen-doped, nanoporous carbon membranes — the electrodes of a supercapacitor — at low cost, quickly, in an environmentally benign process. The only byproduct is methane, which could be used immediately as a fuel or for other purposes.
"The ease, speed and potential of this process is really exciting," said Xiulei (David) Ji, an assistant professor of chemistry in the OSU College of Science, and lead author on a study announcing the discovery in Nano Letters, a journal of the American Chemical Society.
"For the first time we've proven that you can react cellulose with ammonia and create these N-doped nanoporous carbon membranes," Ji said. "It's surprising that such a basic reaction was not reported before. Not only are there industrial applications, but this opens a whole new scientific area, studying reducing gas agents for carbon activation.
"We're going to take cheap wood and turn it into a valuable high-tech product," he said.
These carbon membranes at the nano-scale are extraordinarily thin — a single gram of them can have a surface area of nearly 2,000 square meters. That's part of what makes them useful in supercapacitors. And the new process used to do this is a single-step reaction that's fast and inexpensive. It starts with something about as simple as a cellulose filter paper — conceptually similar to the disposable paper filter in a coffee maker.
The exposure to high heat and ammonia converts the cellulose to a nanoporous carbon material needed for supercapacitors, and should enable them to be produced, in mass, more cheaply than before.
A supercapacitor is a type of energy storage device, but it can be recharged much faster than a battery and has a great deal more power. They are mostly used in any type of device where rapid power storage and short, but powerful energy release is needed.

In 1517, Martin Luther was to do something, albeit by accident, that was to change the face of the world as it was then known in Western Europe, and introduce the German Reformation – write the '95 Theses'.
Luther had been troubled for a number of years by his faith and this was made worse when in 1517 John Tetzel was empowered by the pope to sell an indulgence to pay for the restoration of buildings in Rome, primarily St. Peter's. Luther believed that the people of Wittenburg, Saxony, were being conned into believing that they had been forgiven for their sins and that this simply was not happening. This whole episode was symptomatic of what any referred to as the "rotteness" of the Church.
In response to this action by Tetzel, Luther wrote a pamphlet called "The 95 Theses" which was an obvious criticism of indulgences. The pamphlet contained ninety five points that he felt should be argued at an academic level – they were not for general public discussion.
There are two reasons for thinking this:
The pamphlet was written in Latin which was the traditional language of the scholar then and beyond the understanding of most people including the rich and even members of the European royal families some of whom were not literate in their own language let alone Latin !
The pamphlet was not released to the general public to read but it was pinned to the church door in Wittenburg for other scholars to read and to discuss in preparation for a full discussion at a later date. This was the traditional manner for a scholar to bring attention to his work to other academics to allow for a full discussion.
There was nothing revolutionary about what Luther did – it was the standard accepted practice of those academics who attended the university at Wittenburg.
What happened next makes it appear that Luther was a revolutionary but this was not so.
Someone took down the pamphlet and made a copy of it. It would be normal for a number to be made available for all the academic staff at a large university. Someone then had it translated into German and it was printed off for the general public to have greater access to it. When Luther found out what had happened he tried to get back to original copy but to no avail. The "95 Theses" had gone public and was no longer merely a topic for academic staff.
The majority of people could not read or write in 1517 but it was common for a person who could read to do so out in the public domain (such as a market square) if he believed that he had something of interest that others might want to hear. This is how the information in the pamphlet spread within Wittenburg and the surrounding area and many people in Wittenburg clearly identified themselves with what was stated in the pamphlet about indulgences especially as they were the ones who had to pay for them and were very much out of pocket when this happened.
Saxony in 1517 relied heavily on agriculture for its wealth and therefore traders came into the city and left to go to the outlying areas where they lived. It is probable that this is how the thoughts of Luther spread so quickly. Do note that his ideas would not have spread if they had meant nothing to the people in north Germany.
The non-payment of money towards indulgences could potentially save these people a lot of money. The impact of word-of-mouth communication to Luther was huge but difficult for historians to quantify. It is possible that towns were more likely to convert to Lutheranism as more people lived in them and the opportunity was there for communication to spread quickly. Rural areas tended to be much more conservative in general but these areas in north Germany were to support Luther as well as urban areas.
The response of the public to Luther's work was outside of his control in the sense that once a respected academic was seen to be questioning the stance of the Roman Catholic Church, then it is likely that other less educated people might follow suit. It is unlikely that it would be the other way round!
Luther's attempt to retrieve that pamphlet prove that he was not setting out to do something drastic or revolutionary. His failure to do so was to have massive consequences for Europe and lead to the Reformation.

Missing people
Posted: - Modified: | connecting, lifePart of being more social, I guess, is that I begin to miss people. I grow accustomed to their presence. I start looking forward to the next meeting, the next phone call, the next get-together with friends. Anticipation keeps me excited about the weekend.
But it also makes the weekdays harder to bear. Hours pass less quickly. I find myself passing the time with activities that do not engage me fully. Passing the time! How terrible an idea. To live sub-optimally for a number of days, just waiting for a few hours of fun… Whatever happened to the fun I used to find in hacking on some obscure bit of Emacs code or browsing through online documentation? My hours are spoiled by hope.
And when the weekend comes, what then? Hope can so easily turn into expectations, even though I know it is foolish to expect anything. I begin to wonder if things might not be better a different way. I begin to wish I was having a nice, deep conversation – or even a silly one – instead of just passively watching television. I begin to expect, to measure, and once I begin doing so I allow myself to become disappointed.
It does not have to be that way, does it? I should just remind myself that all of this is a nice extra; not essential, not expected, but appreciated whenever it's there. Still, it is difficult.
True, there is much about this 'being social' that I enjoy. I like the conversations and the surprising insights other people have.
I do not need to pretend to be social in order to enjoy my life.
Perhaps I should end the social experiment and return to my normal routines. I miss those Saturdays of learning or coding or simply lazing around; days that were mostly under my control, that did not wait on anyone or anything in order

Savings banks are not operated in order to generate high levels of profits. This means that they are not generally exposed to any significant risks. However, this does not mean that are immune to financial problems. For this reason, the Savings Banks Finance Group implemented an institutional protection scheme which has been recognised as a statutory deposit guarantee scheme under the German Deposit Guarantee Scheme Act ("EinSiG") on 3 July 2015.
The scheme comprises 13 protection systems:
None of the Sparkassen Finance Group's members have ever experienced an impairment in their services since the saving protection scheme was set up in the 1970-ties nor have any Sparkassen Finance Group customers ever lost any of their savings or interest.
The German Deposit Guarantee Scheme Act ("EinSiG") came into effect on 3 July 2015 and implements the corresponding EU Directive. The Sparkassen Finance Group revised its savings protection scheme to comply with these statutory provisions. As a result, its savings protection scheme has now been recognised as a statutory deposit guarantee scheme under the German Deposit Guarantee Scheme Act ("EinSiG").
The protection scheme's main objective is to safeguard the Group's institutions themselves and protect them in the event of risk or actual financial difficulty. This is intended to safeguard all deposits and offer ongoing and comprehensive protection to customers.
The Sparkassen Finance Group's institutional protection scheme has been recognised as a statutory deposit guarantee scheme under the German Deposit Guarantee Scheme Act ("EinSiG"). In the extremely unlikely event that the institutional protection scheme should fail, all of our customers are guaranteed to be refunded deposits of up to 100,000 Euro in line with the provisions of the German Deposit Guarantee Scheme Act.

Supporters and detractors of Anne Heche took to Twitter to respond to media reports about the Emmy-award-winning, 53-year-old actress' hospitalization following a car accident Friday in a residential neighborhood of Los Angeles.
TMZ broke the story, stating the actress was speeding in her blue Mini Cooper when she crashed into two homes, one after the other, causing the second one to erupt in flames. "Anne apparently suffered severe burns in the fire," TMZ reported. "We're told she's currently in the hospital intubated but expected to live."
Heche's friend and podcast co-host Heather Duffy Boylston said she is in stable condition.
"Her family and friends ask for your thoughts and prayers and to respect her privacy during this difficult time," Duffy said.
Fellow actress Rosanna Arquette called the incident "really tragic" and asked for people to "pray" for Heche, who is best known for her roles in 1990s films like the Gus Van Sant remake of Psycho and Donnie Brasco, in which she starred opposite Johnny Depp.
Anne Heche is in the hospital severely burned from a car accident this is really tragic. Pray for her.
— ✌🏼rosanna arquette (@RoArquette) August 5, 2022
Writer Steve Huff empathized with Heche, calling to attention the actress' long and open struggle with mental health issues.
This is deeply sad. She's been pretty open about her mental health challenges but as anyone who has had loved ones suffering from certain disorders knows, there are many people who never treat their illness appropriately for very long.https://t.co/HRA89m0IRZ
— STEVE HUFF (@SteveHuff) August 5, 2022
Twitter user Rich Keith echoed the sentiments of many who weighed in on the social media platform in expressing sympathy not for Heche but rather for the homeowner whose house caught on fire as a result of the accident.
What about the people in the house she crashed into and caused a fire? Oh, I'm sorry, am I a bad person for asking that?
— RichKeith (@RichKeith11) August 6, 2022
Neither the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) nor the Los Angeles Fire Department (LAFD) was willing to identify the person or persons involved in the accident. "We don't release victims' names," an LAPD spokesperson told NPR.
But according to a fire department report about the second crash involving a fire, "59 Firefighters took 65 minutes to access, confine and fully extinguish the stubborn flames within the heavily damaged structure, and rescue one female adult found within the vehicle, who has been taken to an area hospital by LAFD Paramedics in critical condition. No other injuries were reported."
Heche's manager and agents have not responded to NPR's request for comment.
