The Right Revd Justin Welby, Bishop of Durham and Archbishop of Canterbury Elect, tonight (Monday January 28) bade farewell to the Durham Diocese with a message of hope for the people he is leaving behind.
Bishop Justin attended a service of farewell, thanks and celebration at Durham Cathedral in what was his last public appearance in the diocese before he receives his legal title as Archbishop of Canterbury.
Bishop Justin will cease to be Bishop of Durham and have the legal title bestowed on him as Archbishop of Canterbury at 12 noon on the 4th February at a formal service in St Paul's Cathedral in London. His public ministry will be inaugurated at an enthronement service at Canterbury Cathedral on 21st March.
The Farewell service for Bishop Justin and his wife Caroline drew a large congregation from across the diocese and the region and was attended by the Lord Lieutenant Sir Paul Nicholson.
Speaking about his new job in an interview before the service, he said: "It is extremely scary and a huge privilege. It's an extraordinary feeling to look back and see my predecessors, some of whom are extraordinarily distinguished, like my immediate predecessor Rowan Williams, who is breathtaking in his grip and imagination and his intellect and in many other ways. It's exciting. There is a sense of what is God going to do?"
Asked what effect the possibility of a triple-dip recession could have on the Durham diocese, he said: "It is a huge challenge. Whether we go into a triple-dip or not, whatever does happen it's going to go on being pretty dark economically. However, at the centre of the Church is Jesus Christ, who is described as the light of the world, and the darker the world, the more obvious the light.
"The Church is a centre of peace and hope which is completely independent of the circumstances around it so church communities everywhere have to be consciously seeking to be that peace and hope, welcoming and loving, ministering to people, letting them come and experience church life, making it easy for them to do so.
"In this diocese, churches, not just Church of England but churches generally, are organising about 50 food distribution centres. That's the light of the world in the dark times in very practical ways. The church has often been at its best at times of difficulty because, as people are drawn into worship, they find someone who is faithful, whatever happens.
"If I have had three wishes for the diocese of Durham and its people, you couldn't get much better than what St Paul talks about in chapter thirteen of the first letter to the Corinthians, which is faith, hope and love.
"Faith in God and in each other, in the capacity of this area to pull itself up and give itself a great future, which I utterly believe is within the capacity of this area and is being demonstrated. You only have to look at what's happening in places like the Foundation for Jobs in Darlington (of which he is Patron) and lots of other examples in the north of the diocese. Really very remarkable work is being done.
"Hope that some of the struggles of the present will be ended but also hope in the sense of expectation that there is a really good future out there. Hope shows in how we train people, teach them what to expect and give them a vision.
"Love, knowing the love of God and love for each other. One of the plagues of the Western world, including this country, is the absence of trust in each other but in this area the friendliness, its capacity and the strength of its character and people means that it can set an example on the trust that comes through a genuine love for each other and community and area.
"Three big wishes but I think they're achievable. You build these things a step at a time."
Transcript of the sermon delivered
This sermon is very under prepared. It needed at least 10 more years in the cooking, and is more an exposure of brevity than a reflection on ministry.
That being said the call of God comes in numerous and often unexpected ways, and His voice and word to us is the constant amongst the changes of life. Whenever we are beset with fear and uncertainty, it is to His voice we must turn, to the constancy that is more solid than unreliability of human beings.
We are in the most powerful symbol of stability in the world. The massive bulk of this Cathedral and the journey from Bede the theological historian to Cuthbert the missionary, turns the changes of human practice, dress, liturgy and interpretation of Christian faith into mere passing moments. Bishops come and go, Priors, Deans change, but the Church is the same. As a building its relative narrowness compared to its length gives a sense of strong shoulders and long journeys, the journeys of Christian faith, and the trials within them supported and given direction.
And yet if we think only that we miss half the message. The building is grand, it draws the eye up to God, it stills anxiety and speaks of peace, the beauty of high rose windows breathes life into tired spirits. But it is also a stage set on which the drama of Christian life is played, and that drama goes on never repeating, never ceasing, always changing. The wanderings of the Israelites in this great passage from Numbers also speaks of solidity and movement. The cloud is always there by day and fire by night. There is the continual certainty of the presence of God. But where it goes is anybody's guess.
Come with me to a typical Israelite tent, standard family, mother and father and about eight children, a few goats, a great deal of general clobber, and possibly a donkey. It is early morning, the first light of dawn beginning to take the chill off the desert. And what are they talking about? I suspect who is going to look at the cloud. "It's your turn", "no, I looked yesterday", "well I did three days in a row when you had a cold", and so on. Because if you look out, and the cloud has lifted, it means …… packing! You might have been there six months or one day, but you have to move. And let me tell you, and here I am an expert, packing to move is no fun. We have been doing it all day. It leads to gritted teeth, bad temper, pulled muscles and damaged possessions. And they did it unpredictably for 40 years.
The people of God are always in the midst of change. We look to the Church of England for stability, but we must instead look to God for direction and purpose, for the journey we are to travel with Him, and for vision of our destination. Change is always happening, and my natural instinct of moaning about it does no good. The answer is not avoiding change, but embracing pilgrimage, drawing close to God in worship so that we are filled with excitement about where we are going. The call of God is to move, and the uncertainty of the future is countered by His unfailing love.
Change comes even when we are still. On a journey back from London last week there was a signalling fault. Another train was alongside us. After an hour or so one of us began to move. The scenery changed, even if for a while we did not know if it was us, them or both.
The church may be still but the world around us moves. Culture and expectations of morality change, economics brings destruction or renewal, often both. We have rapid adaptation by brilliant manufacturing in this region, the taking on of interns and apprentices … and we have 40% cuts in local government funding (If you want to see an astute review of the effect of the cuts see what the Bishop of Liverpool the Right Reverend James Jones said to his diocese on the subject. It was with great sadness that I heard that he has announced his retirement today). All around us is rapid change and those struggling to deal with it, change for good and for ill.
The disciples of Jesus are in desolation, reverting to the securities they know, of fishing and locality in Galilee, and finding even that failing them. There is a lostness about the opening of John 21. And the comfort of Jesus comes by surprise, unrecognised. If Numbers calls us to wander on in trust that God is faithful, John tells us how.
He is present, and they do not know Him. My first lesson in a challenging week of silent retreat 10 days ago was to remember the presence of God, which I had neglected. He is here, and often I either turn away or forget. Yet even when they do not know Him, He guides them and restores the normality of life and profession. They catch a lot of fish. His faithfulness does not at all rely on our reception of it, but on His faithfulness. Be reassured.
He calls and they answer: as they see Him they are able to respond, in different ways, with a cry, with encouragement, with collecting what He has given, or with leaping clothed into the water. I wonder if Peter's wife said when he got home, "clothes ruined, couldn't you have walked?".
He brings them into His work; He has fish but asks for theirs. The church is not necessary to the work of God, but in his grace He has made us essential to His loving. He loves us to share in His work, to participate in the providential outworking of His purposes.
And He feeds them, bread and fish as at the 5,000. Provision where there is nothing.
What is this Diocese primarily? It is not organisation or institution, even grand buildings, it is a people called to be loved by God. This Cathedral speaks to us of the everlasting faithfulness of that love, these passages of our call to respond.
It is God's purpose that we should each be consoled and comforted by that love, present, participative, purposeful, providing, and in the strength that He brings pack and move on. Far more than that as we each and all together grow in knowing and recalling the source of that love, God with us, we overflow to generous and self-giving sharing of it with our communities.
We are called to be pilgrims overflowing with love, spreading it in our journey, and being that is the gift of God, not the work of any individual.

Posts Tagged 'Micro-stamping'
The push for micro-stamping is really a push for national gun registration
Friday, June 22nd, 2012Original Story VIA: The Daily Caller
Like a storm that returns stronger each time, efforts to push micro-stamping regulations onto gun-owning Americas are here again. And this time around, The New York Times is pushing it, Time magazine is pushing it and other outlets of the same political persuasion are doing their level best to show us how micro-stamping the firing pins in our firearms could reduce crime by miraculous levels overnight.
Of course, they don't mention the gun registration, the new powers of gun taxation or the all-out gun bans associated with the scheme. Nor are they bothered with another major sticking point — micro-stamping doesn't really work.
Micro-stamping is a way of imbedding a specific mark on the end of a firing pin so that when it strikes the primer of a bullet casing, it leaves a micro-stamp that allows police to trace spent shells back to the guns that fired them. In theory, it's literally like putting a fingerprint on each shell casing fired. Yet ours is not a theoretical world, but a real one. And in the real world there are serious problems with this proposition.
Number one, the passage of micro-stamping legislation would require us not only to have a government-issued firing pin for each gun we own, but would also force us to list every gun we own with the government so bureaucrats can keep a list of which firing pin is in which weapon. Enter gun registration.
Number two, upon sending our weapons in or even taking them to a special, government-certified gunsmith for the micro-stamped firing pin to be added, we'd have to pay a per-gun fee. With a straight face, Time magazine contributor Adam Cohen predicts the cost for this would be between 50¢ and $6 a gun, while The New York Times pegs the cost at $12 a gun. But what both of these outlets fail to recognize is that a new "fee" to the government, regardless of how small, is nothing more than a new tax placed upon the people. Thus micro-stamping will lead to yet one more tax that gun owners must pay in order to exercise the right that "shall not be infringed."
By the way, the National Shooting Sports Foundation has compiled data to show the cost for retrofitting a micro-stamped firing pin would be $200-plus for each gun. (Nothing is ever cheap when the government is involved.)
And what are we to do about revolvers which don't leave shell casings behind to begin with? For instance, if someone commits a crime with a .38 Special revolver, how is a micro-stamp on the firing pin or hammer of the gun going to contribute to solving a crime?
Answer — it's not.
So, to those who dreamed up micro-stamping to begin with, it will probably make sense to ban guns that can't be traced via an imbedded mark on the firing pin or hammer. Seen in this light, micro-stamping opens the door for myriad guns bans and limitations.
Lastly, it's important to note that micro-stamping doesn't work, at least not all the time. There are proven problems with both the durability of the micro-stamps upon the firing pins and the legibility of the marks those firing pins leave on the primer of a bullet casing.
The bottom line: Micro-stamping is just another way for anti-gun bureaucrats to reach into our closets, guns safes and glove compartments to find our guns and register them, to tax us for owning them and to ban those that don't fit their micro-stamping ideal.
The fact that the entire micro-stamping scheme has been flawed from the start will be no hindrance to these gun-grabbers once the legislative hurdle is cleared.

...one of the most highly
regarded and expertly designed C++ library projects in the
— Herb Sutter and Andrei
Alexandrescu, C++
Coding Standards
A tuple (or n-tuple) is a fixed size collection of elements. Pairs, triples, quadruples etc. are tuples. In a programming language, a tuple is a data object containing other objects as elements. These element objects may be of different types.
Tuples are convenient in many circumstances. For instance, tuples make it easy to define functions that return more than one value.
Some programming languages, such as ML, Python and Haskell, have built-in tuple constructs. Unfortunately C++ does not. To compensate for this "deficiency", the Boost Tuple Library implements a tuple construct using templates.
Advanced features (describes some metafunctions etc.).
Rationale behind some design/implementation decisions.
To use the library, just include:
#include "boost/tuple/tuple.hpp"
Comparison operators can be included with:
#include "boost/tuple/tuple_comparison.hpp"
To use tuple input and output operators,
#include "boost/tuple/tuple_io.hpp"
Both tuple_io.hpp
and tuple_comparison.hpp
include tuple.hpp
All definitions are in namespace ::boost::tuples
, but the most common names are lifted to namespace
with using declarations. These names are: tuple
, make_tuple
, tie
and get
Further, ref
and cref
are defined directly under the ::boost
A tuple type is an instantiation of the tuple
The template parameters specify the types of the tuple elements.
The current version supports tuples with 0-10 elements.
If necessary, the upper limit can be increased up to, say, a few dozen elements.
The data element can be any C++ type.
Note that void
and plain function types are valid
C++ types, but objects of such types cannot exist.
Hence, if a tuple type contains such types as elements, the tuple type
can exist, but not an object of that type.
There are natural limitations for element types that cannot
be copied, or that are not default constructible (see 'Constructing tuples'
For example, the following definitions are valid tuple instantiations (A
and C
are some user defined classes):
tuple<double&, const double&, const double, double*, const double*>
tuple<A, int(*)(char, int), B(A::*)(C&), C>
tuple<std::string, std::pair<A, B> >
tuple<A*, tuple<const A*, const B&, C>, bool, void*>
The tuple constructor takes the tuple elements as arguments. For an n-element tuple, the constructor can be invoked with k arguments, where 0 <= k <= n. For example:
tuple<int, double>()
tuple<int, double>(1)
tuple<int, double>(1, 3.14)
If no initial value for an element is provided, it is default initialized (and hence must be default initializable). For example.
class X {
tuple<X,X,X>() // error: no default constructor for X
tuple<X,X,X>(string("Jaba"), string("Daba"), string("Duu")) // ok
In particular, reference types do not have a default initialization:
tuple<double&>() // error: reference must be
// initialized explicitly
double d = 5;
tuple<double&>(d) // ok
tuple<double&>(d+3.14) // error: cannot initialize
// non-const reference with a temporary
tuple<const double&>(d+3.14) // ok, but dangerous:
// the element becomes a dangling reference
Using an initial value for an element that cannot be copied, is a compile time error:
class Y {
Y(const Y&);
char a[10];
tuple<char[10], Y>(a, Y()); // error, neither arrays nor Y can be copied
tuple<char[10], Y>(); // ok
Note particularly that the following is perfectly ok:
Y y;
tuple<char(&)[10], Y&>(a, y);
It is possible to come up with a tuple type that cannot be constructed.
This occurs if an element that cannot be initialized has a lower
index than an element that requires initialization.
For example: tuple<char[10], int&>
In sum, the tuple construction is semantically just a group of individual elementary constructions.
Tuples can also be constructed using the make_tuple
(cf. std::make_pair
) helper functions.
This makes the construction more convenient, saving the programmer from explicitly specifying the element types:
tuple<int, int, double> add_multiply_divide(int a, int b) {
return make_tuple(a+b, a*b, double(a)/double(b));
By default, the element types are deduced to the plain non-reference types. E.g.:
void foo(const A& a, B& b) {
make_tuple(a, b);
The make_tuple
invocation results in a tuple of type tuple<A, B>
Sometimes the plain non-reference type is not desired, e.g. if the element type cannot be copied.
Therefore, the programmer can control the type deduction and state that a reference to const or reference to
non-const type should be used as the element type instead.
This is accomplished with two helper template functions: ref
and cref
Any argument can be wrapped with these functions to get the desired type.
The mechanism does not compromise const correctness since a const object wrapped with ref
in a tuple element with const reference type (see the fifth example below).
For example:
A a; B b; const A ca = a;
make_tuple(cref(a), b); // creates tuple<const A&, B>
make_tuple(ref(a), b); // creates tuple<A&, B>
make_tuple(ref(a), cref(b)); // creates tuple<A&, const B&>
make_tuple(cref(ca)); // creates tuple<const A&>
make_tuple(ref(ca)); // creates tuple<const A&>
Array arguments to make_tuple
functions are deduced to reference to const types by default; there is no need to wrap them with cref
. For example:
make_tuple("Donald", "Daisy");
This creates an object of type tuple<const char (&)[7], const char (&)[6]>
(note that the type of a string literal is an array of const characters, not const char*
However, to get make_tuple
to create a tuple with an element of a
non-const array type one must use the ref
Function pointers are deduced to the plain non-reference type, that is, to plain function pointer.
A tuple can also hold a reference to a function,
but such a tuple cannot be constructed with make_tuple
(a const qualified function type would result, which is illegal):
void f(int i);
make_tuple(&f); // tuple<void (*)(int)>
tuple<tuple<void (&)(int)> > a(f) // ok
make_tuple(f); // not ok
Tuple elements are accessed with the expression:
where t
is a tuple object and N
is a constant integral expression specifying the index of the element to be accessed.
Depending on whether t
is const or not, get
returns the N
th element as a reference to const or
non-const type.
The index of the first element is 0 and thus
must be between 0 and k-1
, where k
is the number of elements in the tuple.
Violations of these constraints are detected at compile time. Examples:
double d = 2.7; A a;
tuple<int, double&, const A&> t(1, d, a);
const tuple<int, double&, const A&> ct = t;
int i = get<0>(t); i = t.get<0>(); // ok
int j = get<0>(ct); // ok
get<0>(t) = 5; // ok
get<0>(ct) = 5; // error, can't assign to const
double e = get<1>(t); // ok
get<1>(t) = 3.14; // ok
get<2>(t) = A(); // error, can't assign to const
A aa = get<3>(t); // error: index out of bounds
++get<0>(t); // ok, can be used as any variable
Note! The member get functions are not supported with MS Visual C++ compiler.
Further, the compiler has trouble with finding the non-member get functions without an explicit namespace qualifier.
Hence, all get
calls should be qualified as: tuples::get<N>(a_tuple)
when writing code that should compile with MSVC++ 6.0.
A tuple can be copy constructed from another tuple, provided that the element types are element-wise copy constructible. Analogously, a tuple can be assigned to another tuple, provided that the element types are element-wise assignable. For example:
class A {};
class B : public A {};
struct C { C(); C(const B&); };
struct D { operator C() const; };
tuple<char, B*, B, D> t;
tuple<int, A*, C, C> a(t); // ok
a = t; // ok
In both cases, the conversions performed are: char -> int
(derived class pointer to base class pointer), B -> C
(a user defined conversion) and D -> C
(a user defined conversion).
Note that assignment is also defined from std::pair
tuple<float, int> a = std::make_pair(1, 'a');
Tuples reduce the operators ==, !=, <, >, <=
and >=
to the corresponding elementary operators.
This means, that if any of these operators is defined between all elements of two tuples, then the same operator is defined between the tuples as well.
The equality operators for two tuples a
and b
are defined as:
a == b
iff for each i
: ai == bi
a != b
iff exists i
: ai != bi
The operators <, >, <=
and >=
implement a lexicographical ordering.
Note that an attempt to compare two tuples of different lengths results in a compile time error. Also, the comparison operators are "short-circuited": elementary comparisons start from the first elements and are performed only until the result is clear.
tuple<std::string, int, A> t1(std::string("same?"), 2, A());
tuple<std::string, long, A> t2(std::string("same?"), 2, A());
tuple<std::string, long, A> t3(std::string("different"), 3, A());
bool operator==(A, A) { std::cout << "All the same to me..."; return true; }
t1 == t2; // true
t1 == t3; // false, does not print "All the..."
Tiers are tuples, where all elements are of non-const reference types.
They are constructed with a call to the tie
function template (cf. make_tuple
int i; char c; double d;
tie(i, c, a);
The above tie
function creates a tuple of type tuple<int&, char&, double&>
The same result could be achieved with the call make_tuple(ref(i), ref(c), ref(a))
A tuple that contains non-const references as elements can be used to 'unpack' another tuple into variables. E.g.:
int i; char c; double d;
tie(i, c, d) = make_tuple(1,'a', 5.5);
std::cout << i << " " << c << " " << d;
This code prints 1 a 5.5
to the standard output stream.
A tuple unpacking operation like this is found for example in ML and Python.
It is convenient when calling functions which return tuples.
The tying mechanism works with std::pair
templates as well:
int i; char c;
tie(i, c) = std::make_pair(1, 'a');
There is also an object called ignore
which allows you to ignore an element assigned by a tuple.
The idea is that a function may return a tuple, only part of which you are interested in. For example (note, that ignore
is under the tuples
char c;
tie(tuples::ignore, c) = std::make_pair(1, 'a');
The global operator<<
has been overloaded for std::ostream
such that tuples are
output by recursively calling operator<<
for each element.
Analogously, the global operator>>
has been overloaded to extract tuples from std::istream
by recursively calling operator>>
for each element.
The default delimiter between the elements is space, and the tuple is enclosed in parenthesis. For Example:
tuple<float, int, std::string> a(1.0f, 2, std::string("Howdy folks!");
cout << a;
outputs the tuple as: (1.0 2 Howdy folks!)
The library defines three manipulators for changing the default behavior:
defines the character that is output before the first
defines the character that is output after the
last element.set_delimiter(char)
defines the delimiter character between
elements.Note, that these manipulators are defined in the tuples
For example:
cout << tuples::set_open('[') << tuples::set_close(']') << tuples::set_delimiter(',') << a;
outputs the same tuple a
as: [1.0,2,Howdy folks!]
The same manipulators work with operator>>
and istream
as well. Suppose the cin
stream contains the following data:
(1 2 3) [4:5]
The code:
tuple<int, int, int> i;
tuple<int, int> j;
cin >> i;
cin >> tuples::set_open('[') >> tuples::set_close(']') >> tuples::set_delimiter(':');
cin >> j;
reads the data into the tuples i
and j
Note that extracting tuples with std::string
or C-style string
elements does not generally work, since the streamed tuple representation may not be unambiguously
All tuple access and construction functions are small inlined one-liners. Therefore, a decent compiler can eliminate any extra cost of using tuples compared to using hand-written tuple like classes. Particularly, with a decent compiler there is no performance difference between this code:
class hand_made_tuple {
A a; B b; C c;
hand_made_tuple(const A& aa, const B& bb, const C& cc)
: a(aa), b(bb), c(cc) {};
A& getA() { return a; };
B& getB() { return b; };
C& getC() { return c; };
hand_made_tuple hmt(A(), B(), C());
hmt.getA(); hmt.getB(); hmt.getC();
and this code:
tuple<A, B, C> t(A(), B(), C());
t.get<0>(); t.get<1>(); t.get<2>();
Note, that there are widely used compilers (e.g. bcc 5.5.1) which fail to optimize this kind of tuple usage.
Depending on the optimizing ability of the compiler, the tier mechanism may have a small performance penalty compared to using
non-const reference parameters as a mechanism for returning multiple values from a function.
For example, suppose that the following functions f1
and f2
have equivalent functionalities:
void f1(int&, double&);
tuple<int, double> f2();
Then, the call #1 may be slightly faster than #2 in the code below:
int i; double d;
f1(i,d); // #1
tie(i,d) = f2(); // #2
See [1, 2] for more in-depth discussions about efficiency.
Compiling tuples can be slow due to the excessive amount of template instantiations.
Depending on the compiler and the tuple length, it may be more than 10 times slower to compile a tuple construct, compared to compiling an equivalent explicitly written class, such as the hand_made_tuple
class above.
However, as a realistic program is likely to contain a lot of code in addition to tuple definitions, the difference is probably unnoticeable.
Compile time increases between 5 and 10 percent were measured for programs which used tuples very frequently.
With the same test programs, memory consumption of compiling increased between 22% to 27%. See
for details.
The library code is(?) standard C++ and thus the library works with a standard conforming compiler. Below is a list of compilers and known problems with each compiler:
Compiler | Problems |
gcc 2.95 | - |
edg 2.44 | - |
Borland 5.5 | Can't use function pointers or member pointers as tuple elements |
Metrowerks 6.2 | Can't use ref and cref wrappers |
MS Visual C++ | No reference elements (tie still works). Can't use ref and cref wrappers |
Gary Powell has been an indispensable helping hand. In particular, stream manipulators for tuples were his idea. Doug Gregor came up with a working version for MSVC, David Abrahams found a way to get rid of most of the restrictions for compilers not supporting partial specialization. Thanks to Jeremy Siek, William Kempf and Jens Maurer for their help and suggestions. The comments by Vesa Karvonen, John Max Skaller, Ed Brey, Beman Dawes, David Abrahams and Hartmut Kaiser helped to improve the library. The idea for the tie mechanism came from an old usenet article by Ian McCulloch, where he proposed something similar for std::pairs.

AARH Studio
Radan Hubicka Architectural Studio (AARH) focuses on all areas of architectural and urban planning in all design stages, from conceptual studies up to project execution, including design supervision. The studio is especially renowned for its designs of residential buildings and luxury private residences. In 2005 AARH won a competition to build the CITY EPOQUE complex in Prague. This was a breakthrough moment in the studio's history. A 4-star Sheraton hotel and luxury high-rise residential building, which is to be the tallest residential building in the Czech Republic, are currently under construction. AARH collaborates with the most significant developers and investment companies as well as the biggest construction firms in the CR. In addition, AARH works for the Czech Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The private, wealthy Czech clientele toward whom we are targeted is impressed by the ability of the studio to design generous spatial concepts, having unique details and material conception. AARH is well-known for its complex and synergic approach to architectural design, incorporating innovative planning methods and high-end technologies, with an emphasis on detail and perfect craftsmanship. The work of the studio has been published in many magazines and books, and has received many awards, including a nomination for the Mies van der Rohe Prize in 2007. R. Hubicka (1960) graduated from the Czech Technical University, Faculty of Architecture in 1985. He collaborated for several years with renowned Viennese architect B. Podrecca as co-designer. After returning from Vienna, he founded his own studio in 1995. Since that time, the studio has steadily increased in size, building up a competent team of architects.

2016 Florida Statutes
Duty of the court to uphold laws governing sexual predators and sexual offenders.
Duty of the court to uphold laws governing sexual predators and sexual offenders.
775.24 Duty of the court to uphold laws governing sexual predators and sexual offenders.—
(1) The Legislature finds that, for the purpose of approving a plea agreement or for other reasons, certain courts enter orders that effectively limit or nullify requirements imposed upon sexual predators and sexual offenders pursuant to the laws of this state and prevent persons or entities from carrying out the duties imposed, or exercising the authority conferred, by such laws. The laws relating to sexual predators and sexual offenders are substantive law. Furthermore, the Congress of the United States has expressly encouraged every state to enact such laws, and has provided that, to the extent that a state's laws do not meet certain federal requirements, the state will lose significant federal funding provided to the state for law enforcement and public safety programs. Unless a court that enters such an order determines that a person or entity is not operating in accordance with the laws governing sexual predators or sexual offenders, or that such laws or any part of such laws are unconstitutional or unconstitutionally applied, the court unlawfully encroaches on the Legislature's exclusive power to make laws and places at risk significant public interests of the state.
(2) If a person meets the criteria in this chapter for designation as a sexual predator or meets the criteria in s. 943.0435, s. 944.606, s. 944.607, or any other law for classification as a sexual offender, the court may not enter an order, for the purpose of approving a plea agreement or for any other reason, which:
(a) Exempts a person who meets the criteria for designation as a sexual predator or classification as a sexual offender from such designation or classification, or exempts such person from the requirements for registration or community and public notification imposed upon sexual predators and sexual offenders;
(b) Restricts the compiling, reporting, or release of public records information that relates to sexual predators or sexual offenders; or
(c) Prevents any person or entity from performing its duties or operating within its statutorily conferred authority as such duty or authority relates to sexual predators or sexual offenders.
(3) If the court enters an order that affects an agency's performance of a duty imposed under the laws governing sexual predators or sexual offenders, or that limits the agency's exercise of authority conferred under such laws, the Legislature strongly encourages the affected agency to file a motion in the court that entered such order. The affected agency may, within 1 year after the receipt of any such order, move to modify or set aside the order or, if such order is in the nature of an injunction, move to dissolve the injunction. Grounds for granting any such motion include, but need not be limited to:
(a) The affected agency was not properly noticed.
(b) The court is not authorized to enjoin the operation of a statute that has been duly adjudged constitutional and operative unless the statute is illegally applied or unless the statute or the challenged part of it is unconstitutional on adjudicated grounds.
(c) Jurisdiction may not be conferred by consent of the parties.
(d) To the extent that the order is based upon actions the agency might take, the court's order is premature and, if and when such actions are taken, these actions may be challenged in appropriate proceedings to determine their enforceability.
(e) The injunction affects the public interest and would cause injury to the public.
(f) The order creates an unenforceable, perpetual injunction.
(g) The order seeks to restrict the agency in the performance of its duties outside the court's territorial jurisdiction.
History.—s. 4, ch. 98-81; s. 2, ch. 2002-58; s. 7, ch. 2004-371; s. 67, ch. 2016-24; s. 28, ch. 2016-104.

Documentation: Your Essential Discovery Tool
I am always at a loss to know how much to believe of my own stories.
Washington Irving, Tales of a Traveller
Would you start out on a car trip in a strange country without a map? Would you simply presume that you'll figure it out when you get there? Of course you wouldn't, but this is what people do every day when they fail to document their ever expanding networks.
When it comes time to troubleshoot, those who don't have a map to go by just shrug and shake their heads. Undocumented networks are mostly in-comprehensible. You need some method of getting your bearings, and network documentation can be an invaluable compass in what can be a sea of confusion.
This goes for an existing network as well as for one that you are just building. "As you build it, so shall it be," to quote one of my mentors. That is, if you build a network without documenting it for your future self, expect your future self to be befuddled, asking, "What exactly did my past self do here?" Networks are complex beasts by nature. And there is no such thing as a network that doesn't grow.
As such, it's absolutely essential that you and others who work on your network have some sort of well accepted rules (standard operating procedure, or SOP, to use the industry term) that dictate how and when you document. Just as no traditional job is finished until the paperwork is done, no network upgrade or addition is complete until the documentation is done. Documentation can include anything from logs and lists to charts and diagrams. It's anything that will make your life easier in the future.
You and your peers are not the only people who document your network, of course. Although you're the only folks who can document the way that your network is put together, it's worth your time and effort to completely read product documentation before deploying. It's amazing how many misconfigured (and thus malfunctioning) networks you will see with the simple problem that the implementers did not read the product documentation. Some problems are resolved, as they say out on the Net, by "RTFM" (Read The Fabulous Manual). (See Hour 6, "The Sesame Street Method: Using What Works," for more on vendor-supplied information.)
Navigating a Bad Network Neighborhood
Some people will tell you that complete documentation is too much trouble, or that it takes too much time and doesn't buy you all that much. This is utter hogwash. (Although many gray areas exist in network troubleshooting, this is one issue that is definitely black and white.) Folks without documented networks are the ones running around with their hair on fire; those with documented networks have fixed the problem, gone to lunch, done something productive, and gone home to spend time with their kids. This might sound rather judgmental, but too much evidence suggests that either you document once and have a reference during times of trouble or you fail to document at all and end up having to figure out something multiple times: once during each crisis.
For example, let's say that your wiring closet isn't labeled at all. Without documentation, if you are having a problem with a certain PC and want to check the switch port, you'd need to spend anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes tracing the cable from the workstation to the closet switch. Now multiply this by the many potential workstation cable problems that you'll see in your lifetime as a troubleshooter, and the amount of wasted time becomes horrific.
Not only does insufficient documentation waste time when your network is having problems, but it also causes unnecessary fear and confusion during the crisis . You owe it to yourself to have as clear a situation as possible when you start to troubleshootbelieve me, there's enough uncertainty and doubt when you're trying to find your way out of a bad network neighborhood without adding to it due to a lack of a good map.

Last updated June 2020
As families slog through the summer of COVID (translation: limited or canceled camps and activities, wrecked vacations), the pressure is on parents to provide fun and educational experiences to keep kids busy because "SHHHHH! I'M ON A WORK CALL!"
Here at Checkbook, our editors-turned-teachers-and-camp-counselors are getting desperate: I'm very noncrafty, yet made homemade Play-Doh the other night, and I'm considering a backyard Slip 'N Slide (yes, I'm that desperate). Our editor's wife is lining up virtual tutors (sorry, kiddos) and has enlisted both daughters to help clean out grandma's house (really sorry, kiddos). And we're all searching for some form of structure beyond video games and Netflix.
So we've been on the lookout for easy, interesting projects—and it's becoming clear some backup would greatly help. Several companies are happy to step in with periodic deliveries of age-appropriate activity crates, from games to crafts to science labs.
We love that these kits are so much better than another hunk-of-plastic toy that will just clutter playrooms. Most present learning activities, and some require limited adult involvement—perfect for when you need to tackle a work project or hide somewhere quiet to stress-eat chocolate. (Do it. No judgment here.)
We describe the ones that interested us. Most offer special pricing for new customers. And attention grandparents: You can SEND HELP PLEASE by purchasing subscriptions or just single boxes as gifts.
Got a coder on your hands? Bitsbox, geared toward kids ages six to 12, covers everything from the basics of programming logic to how to create your own app. Each box, delivered monthly, introduces a new computer science concept. And don't worry, Luddite parents: the site says: "Attention grownups! You don't need to know anything about code to help your kid learn with Bitsbox." The $24.95 monthly basic subscription includes a dozen app projects and a binder for storage. A $37.95 a month deluxe version includes bonus activities and goodies for your little techie.
LEGOs are our go-to activity to break up a vast sea of screen time, and Brick Loot keeps things fresh by sending boxes for budding builders. Each shipment is filled with LEGO and other brick-related sets and items, usually tied to a theme (spies, food trucks, Venice, Paris). "We search high and low for the newest, coolest, and most outrageous items you will not find at your local toy store," the company says. Subscriptions start at $24.88 a month; save more per month with longer subscriptions.
"Inspires girls to BE and DO anything by introducing them to fearless women who made the world better." These crates would be great for boys, too, to teach them about strong women in history. A recent box included a focus on famous female artists (create your own Kahlo and Cassatt masterpieces, make a flower crown like Frida's). Crates cost $32.95 a month, with price breaks when you sign up for six months or longer. There's a $9 per month option to double the materials for a second child (perfect for siblings or for sharing the cost—and the fun—with another family). Mini crates and digital packages are available, too.
Hands-on, age-appropriate science and art boxes for kids ages two to 10 include four to six projects that use eco-friendly supplies. Build a balloon-powered chopper; create musical instruments to learn about the science of sound. Subscriptions start at $24.95 a month; a sibling option ($44.95 a month) includes two sets with each kit.
Offers "seriously fun and enriching science and art projects," building and engineering kits, games, and more for a variety of different interests and ages. The core choices include Panda Crate (newborns to age 2); Koala Crate (ages two to four); Kiwi Crate (five to eight); and Atlas Crate (six to 11; focused on learning about other cultures). I bought a few and my son loved making his own version of the classic arcade Crane Claw Machine, and my daughter got absorbed in decorating a colorful "tie-dye" tote bag with tissue paper and water, among many other projects. There are advanced options for older kids, like Doodle Crate for artists, and Tinker Crate for STEM lovers. Subscriptions start at $19.95 a month.
Promises "a global adventure" for children ages three to 12. The emphasis is on learning about different countries and cultures in amusing, hands-on ways. This year special summer camp boxes help kids get "immersed in the cultures of Brazil, Japan, France, Egypt, and Australia. Camp activities include reading a letter from pen pals Sam and Sofia, completing pen-to-paper activities, collecting coins, enjoying hands-on culturally relevant projects…and so much more." Subscriptions start at $15.95 a month and go much higher—the $125 summer camp kit promises to keep campers busy for six three-to-four-hour days.
All you need is water and scissors to get busy with a "stress-free, time-sensitive creative experience." The company says the brand was created by a working mom who wanted to enjoy art with her kids, but didn't have the time or energy to plan or shop for supplies. An upcoming box will be "Pirates & Mermaids!" to "craft up our mermaids, colorful jellyfish, pirate hats, treasure chests, and more!"—great for summer. A cool plus? Each box can be shared between two kiddos. Boxes cost $29.99 a month, but longer subscriptions come with lower prices.

Leap in leukemia treatment

- Summary:

- Share:
Doctors at Dartmouth-Hitchcock's Norris Cotton Cancer Center (NCCC) have found a combination of drugs to potentially treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) more effectively. The research was published online on May 3, 2013, and it will appear as a letter in the journal Leukemia, a publication of the Nature Publishing Group. The study helps address a basic problem of treating CLL.
CLL lives both in the blood in circulation, and in lymph nodes and bone marrow. The former is relatively easy to kill, but the disease recurs because of resistant CLL cells in the lymph nodes and bone marrow. The researchers found an innovative drug combination that targets the stubborn CLL cells.
"We have been studying the mechanism in the cancer cells that causes the resistance to treatment," says Alan Eastman, the senior researcher on the team and a professor of pharmacology and toxicology at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth, "and that in turn, led us to find drugs that target the resistance." Eastman led the team at Dartmouth-Hitchcock's Norris Cotton Cancer Center that also included Ryan Soderquist, Darcy Bates, and Alexey Danilov.
The researchers found a very effective drug combination of gossypol plus navitoclax to kill CLL cells. "Both drugs have been given to patients, but never in combination, because no one had the mechanistic rationale for doing that. Now we have what we think is the most promising drug combination so far for the treatment of CLL," says Eastman.
CLL cells in the lymph nodes have an increased level of a protein known as BCL-X. Gossypol likely inhibits this protein, which allows the navitoclax to work more effectively to kill the cancer cells. Eastman and his team tested this drug combination on CLL immediately after they came out of the patients.
The willingness of the patients to participate was integral to this study," Eastman adds. "After 40 years of research, I think this is the most promising idea I have had that might truly impact patient outcome." The researchers hope a clinical trial will soon follow.

CTC's most famous chef
The cereal debuted in 1984. Wendell went to work at that time too – along with his two sidekick bakers, Bob and Quello – and first appeared on the CTC box and in advertising in 1987.
You might remember them singing in this commercial.
Wendell was first called out by name on the box in 1990.
The other two chefs were taken off the CTC box in 1991, as Wendell took over top billing.
Wendell also was prominent on the back of the box, including this one promoting CTC as the "The Taste You Can See."
While Wendell hasn't appeared on the front of the box since 2009, and was recently taken off the back of the box too, he's still at work on CTC behind the scenes as the cereal celebrates 30 years as a Big G brand.
Wendell's cohorts in promoting the cinnamon goodness of CTC, the Crazy Squares, are now the featured characters in advertising and on the box. The Crazy Squares have been helping us tell the Cinnamon Toast Crunch story on TV since 2010.
The brand team used the Crazy Squares to honor Wendell on the CTC social media accounts, earlier this year.
So, you just never know when Wendell will make another appearance. Cinnamon Toast Crunch surely wouldn't be what it is without him!

See More Information on Canning Vegetables and Fruits:
There are two safe methods that can be used, boiling-water-bath and pressure canning. The type of food being canned will generally determine which method is used. For information on which canning method to use for certain foods, see Food Acidity in Canning Temperatures and Processing Times. The information below provides you with instructions on using these canning methods for preserving vegetables and fruits.
Note: If the pressure is not maintained it can cause the food to be under processed. If there is a sudden or large drop in pressure during processing it can cause the liquid to drawn out of the jars and prevent proper sealing. |
When the processing time is complete, turn the heat off and remove the canner from the burner. Allow the canner to cool naturally. Do not try to cool it down with cold water or cold towels. Forcing it to cool down can cause food spoilage, can force liquid from the jars, causing them not to seal, and can warp the canner lid.
As the canner cools it also begins to depressurize. Allow to cool until the dial on the gauge reads zero. For weighted gauge canners you will have to time the cooling process. Cool pint jars for 30 minutes and quart jars for 45 minutes. Some of the newer thinner walled canners may cool down quicker. The newer canners have vent locks that are designed to stay locked until the canner has depressurized, preventing the lid from being removed until they unlock.
Even after the canner has cooled and depressurized, be cautious when opening the petcock or removing the weighted gauge from the vent port. Wait for 10 minutes before removing the lid.
Unfasten the lid and carefully remove the lid by lifting the far side up and away from you so any escaping steam does not come back in your face.
Have a folded towel ready for placing the jars on when removing them from the canner. Using the jar lifter, carefully remove the jars from the canner and place them on the towel. If desired, a cooling rack can be used to place the processed jars on for cooling. Leave at least 1 inch between the jars to allow for air circulation while cooling. Do not place in an area where the jars would be in a cold draft.
Do not try to re-tighten the screw band after processing because that may disturb the sealing process that has already started to form. Allow jars to cool for 12 to 24 hours before handling.
Once the jars have completely cooled, remove the screw band and wipe the jars clean of any residue. Check the jars to see if they sealed properly. If a jar did not seal, place it in the refrigerator and use within 2 or 3 days.

Posts Tagged 'Vimy Ridge'
Having just returned from three days in Arras where I gave a lecture at the Carrière Wellington about the Battle of Arras (April-May 1917) I am heartened by the increase in interest shown in the spring offensive. There is even a plan to tweet updates from the battle which should appeal to those using social media. I thought it a good opportunity to write a short article on the first stage of the battle – the First Battle of the Scarpe which ran from 9 – 14 April 1917. If time and work permits I will do the same for the Second (23/24 April) and Third (3 May) Battles of the Scarpe.
Easter Monday, 9 April 1917 was a momentous day which saw the start of the Battle of Arras. It is best known in Canada for the attack and capture by all four Canadian Divisions (operating together as the Canadian Corps) of the previously unconquered heights of Vimy Ridge. It must be remembered that this action, whilst quite rightly lauded was undertaken to protect the northern flank of the main Arras battle front. Sadly, and almost inexplicably the main effort by troops of General Sir Edmund Allenby's Third Army have been largely neglected by historians, television documentary producers and British battlefield visitors who all head north to Flanders and the blood-soaked fields around Ypres or south to the Somme. I cannot understand this omission as to me, Arras is the most interesting battle of the war offering a major element in the evolution of warfare. By the end of the offensive I would argue that, to many, the prospect of a final victory almost disappears from the Allies' view.
The British attacks at Arras were part of a larger Anglo-French offensive planned for spring 1917. The author of this scheme was General Robert Nivelle, commander-in-chief of the French armies on the Western Front, who proposed three separate attacks. Two of these astride the Rivers Aisne and Oise would be French led. Great Britain, as the junior partner in the alliance was to launch a major diversionary attack in the north around Arras. It was not what Sir Douglas Haig, commander-in-chief of the British forces wanted, but faced with such a huge French effort there was no other choice but to accept. The German retreat to the pre-prepared positions of the Hindenburg Line (Siegfried Stellung) rendered the attack on the Oise redundant. However, the major offensive on the Aisne and the British diversion at Arras would still go ahead as planned.
9 April 1917 – the opening day
Easter Monday, 9 April 1917 was, in the main, a great success for the attacking British and Canadian forces. Despite the unseasonal sleet, snow and severe cold the Canadian Corps captured the vast majority of Vimy Ridge and British advances to the south were also impressive. An advance of over three and a half miles was achieved by the 9th (Scottish) Division and the 'leapfrogging' 4th Division who captured the village of Fampoux. This advance was the longest made in a single day by any belligerent from static trenches.
South of the river attacking British divisions also fared well with Observation Ridge and Battery Valley captured. However, the planned capture of the village of Monchy-le-Preux on its hilltop plateau and Guémappe were not realised. Moving south of the Arras-Cambrai road the successful capture of The Harp and Telegraph Hill can also be viewed as particular triumphs. However, south of the Roman road the British were now attacking the newly constructed Siegfried Stellung (known to the British as the Hindenburg Line). The intelligent siting and design of the Hindenburg Line, coupled with the inability of British artillery to destroy barbed wire sufficiently made the attacks in the south a costlier and much more difficult task. Neuville Vitasse was captured but the two divisions to the south of the village suffered grievously in their attacks.
The night of 9 April saw Germany's fate in the balance. If British success could be exploited then it was very possible a potentially disastrous breach in their line could lead to a full-scale German retreat. Sadly, for the British, the success of 9 April was the zenith of their action at Arras. Disorganization, breakdown of communications, dreadful weather and the perennial problem of moving the artillery forward over heavily bombarded ground resulted in little concentrated action taking place on 10 April. This delay was exactly what the Germans needed – time to reorganize and strengthen their defences.
First Battle of Bullecourt
The next day, 11 April was a pivotal day of fighting. General Sir Hubert Gough's Fifth Army attacked in the south at Bullecourt. The hastily constructed plan has been to use tanks of the Heavy Branch Machine Gun Corps to crush the thick belts of barbed wire protecting the Hindenburg Line. When these failed to arrive on time Australian troops broke through the wire, fighting their way into the Hindenburg Line. By midday they were faced with the Germans closing in on them on three sides and were forced to retreat across No Man's Land to their own line. Over 2,000 men were taken prisoner – the largest number of Australians captured in the war.
The Capture of Monchy-le-Preux
The day also saw the capture of Monchy-le-Preux by the infantry of the 15th and 37th Divisions, aided by six tanks. The capture of the village was an unbelievable feat of arms. Astonishingly, many of the attackers had lain out in the cold and snow for two days and it is a credit to their training and the fighting determination of the British Army that their attacks were pressed with such resilience. Despite the undoubted success of the infantry it is the the fate of the cavalry that Monchy has become synonymous with. With the village captured the cavalry were to advance east to the Green Line. However, they were forced back into the village by German machine gun fire where they were subjected to a 'box barrage' of artillery. Unable to escape, the narrow streets were clogged with horses and cavalrymen. The latter dismounted; seeking refuge in cellars but the horses could do nothing and were killed in great numbers as shells rained down. The streets of Monchy, full of horse carcasses and the foul residue of high explosive shells and animals are said to have run with blood.
Disaster for the Seaforths
An ominous taste of things for the future conduct of the battle to come was the attack by the 4th Division on the Green Line from Fampoux. At midday the 2nd Seaforth Highlanders and 1st Royal Irish Fusiliers attacked from the sunken lane between Fampoux and Gavrelle . They were spotted whilst forming up by the enemy in Roeux and on the railway embankment and subjected to shellfire. At zero hour, as they advanced over a kilometre of open ground behind a feeble artillery barrage they were hit by heavy machine gun fire from the railway embankment and Chemical Works. The Seaforths attacked with 12 officers and 420 men and suffered casualties of all 12 officers and 363 men. Only 57 men survived this attack unwounded. This action and the casualties from other battalions of Seaforths are commemorated with the Seaforths Cross at Fampoux. Subsequent attacks were similarly costly. Roeux was fast earning a reputation as a fortress village. British attacks were badly planned and not supported by sufficient artillery fire whilst German defences grew in strength.
13 April was a day for fresh troops to take the field in order to carry on the attack. Exhausted and frozen men trudged back to Arras, replaced by units at full strength. By now it was almost definitely too late for the breakthrough that had appeared so possible on the evening of 9 April.
Infantry Hill – the destruction of the Essex Regiment & Newfoundlanders
An attack was planned from the precarious Monchy salient. Just two battalions of men would attack up Hill 100 (named Infantry Hill by the British). Conditions were so bad in the village with the detritus from horse carcasses blocking the narrow roads that the attack was postponed until 5.30 a.m. on 14 April. The plan was to capture Infantry Hill and send out patrols into the Bois du Sart and Bois du Vert to check for enemy. In hindsight this badly planned attack appears highly dangerous, almost suicidal. The Monchy salient was already surrounded on three sides by enemy forces. The attack, carried out by the 1st Essex Regiment and Newfoundland Regiment went in as prescribed. It started well and by 7.00 a.m. it was reported that Infantry Hill had been captured. However, in their first proper use of the new defensive employment of 'elastic defence' a German counter attack was delivered with such speed and precision that over 1000 Essex and Newfoundlanders were killed, wounded or taken prisoner. Monchy had been left undefended and was now at the mercy of advancing Germans troops. The situation was only saved by the commander of the Newfoundland Regiment, Colonel James Forbes Robertson who, with eight other men opened rifle fire from the edge of the village. For five hours their fire held back the enemy until fresh troops reached them. These men, known as the 'Men who saved Monchy' were all decorated for this action.
It is not the purpose of this brief article to mention every stage of the fighting but to merely pick out some of the more well-known points. Fighting continued on the Wancourt Ridge with the British capture of the remains of Wancourt Tower. Bitter fighting also continued in the Hindenburg Line; the most well-known casualty from these actions was war poet and officer on the 2nd Royal Welsh Fusiliers, Siegfried Sassoon who was wounded on 16 April. With limited piecemeal actions achieving little Sir Douglas Haig now took control, halting these costly and morale damaging attacks until a combined offensive could be made.
This decision marked the end of the first stage of the Arras fighting – the end of the First Battle of the Scarpe. It was now the turn of General Nivelle to launch his attack on the Aisne. After regrouping and with a marked improvement in weather the British attacked again on 23 April – the Second Battle of the Scarpe.
So, on 9 April 2012, ninety-five years after the whistles blew and attack commenced I will be raising a glass to the memory of the men of all nationalities who fought in the battle. Their sacrifice, perseverance and resolution to finish the job are astonishing. My respect grows for them daily. It is up to all of us to ensure that their efforts are not forgotten.
Should you be interested in the Battle of Arras then the book that Peter Barton and I produced, 'Arras: The Spring 1917 Offensive including Vimy Ridge and Bullecourt' is still available. I would urge anyone to visit Arras as it is a lovely town with good hotels and restaurants and only an hour's drive from Calais. The battlefields are quiet and are immensely rewarding to visit. If you have a relative who fought in the battle or are looking for a guide to show you then please contact me. I would be delighted to help.
The Arras Tourist board are running a number of events over April 2012. Details can be found here: http://www.westernfrontassociation.com/attachments/article/2293/Arras_Ceremony_9_April.pdf

Do you fly on commercial airplanes for work or for pleasure in the U.S.? Do you regularly visit military bases or secure federal facilities? If so, this is the year you will need to have either a REAL ID-compliant license or a valid US passport to take commercial flights within the US or gain access to secure federal facilities. The law goes into effect on October 1, 2020 so there is still plenty of time to assess whether this is something you need or not and, if so, time to get the required documents.
Here's the scoop. After 9/11, federal legislators and security officials established consistent, minimum security standards that would be enforced in all states and territories. Beginning on October 1 of this year, federal agencies, including DHS and TSA, will only accept compliant documentation at TSA airport security checkpoints and some federal facilities, such as military bases and nuclear power plants. The most common forms of documents are REAL ID-compliant licenses or US passports or passport cards. A handful of states (Michigan, Vermont, Minnesota, New York and Washington) issue enhanced driver's licenses, which are also acceptable.
You do NOT need a REAL ID if:
- you have a valid U.S. passport or passport card
- you don't use commercial airplanes to travel domestically
- you don't visit military bases
- you don't visit secure federal facilities
- you are under 18 years of age
You can use a passport if you have one, but you have to remember to bring it with you in instances where it wasn't required previously.
What is a Real ID and how do you get one?
It's possible that if you renewed your license in recent years, you have a Real ID-compliant license because states have been phasing them in. Homeland Security says that "REAL ID-compliant cards will have of one of the following markings on the upper top portion of the card. If the card does not have one of these markings, it is not REAL ID-compliant and won't be accepted as proof of identity in order to board commercial aircraft."
And here is a sample of a Massachusetts REAL ID-compliant license vs a noncompliant one. The designation in the upper right-hand corner varies by state.
Homeland Security has many resources to learn more, including
- Flying with a REAL ID
- A helpful list of frequently asked questions.
- A Fact Sheet that includes an overview and a list of acceptable forms of ID for domestic air travel (PDF)
- Real ID overview – with a map to check your state's requirements
You can also check with your state's registry of motor vehicles to see if your license is REAL ID compliant. Here are links to REAL ID info for state RMVs in the New England region

The kamilavka (Russian: камилавка), in Greek: Kamilavkion (καμιλαύκιον), kalymmavkhion (καλυμμαύχιον), or kalymmavchi (καλυμαύχι)), is an item of head wear among the clerical clothing worn by Orthodox Christian monastics and clergy. As with most items of Orthodox vestments this head wear developed from the clothing worn at the imperial court of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) empire. The kamilavka is worn during church services.
The kamilavka is a hat in the form of a rigid cylindrical head covering. In appearance it is similar to a stovepipe hat without a brim. The appearance and use of the kamilavka/kamilavkion varies among the different traditions in the Orthodox Church.
Greek tradition
Ordained clergy, both monastic and married, wear a kamilavkion that has a flattened conical brim on top of the cylinder. Monks wear a simple black kamilavkion that is covered with a black veil, called an epanokamelavkion. Hierodeacons, that is, deacons who are monks, remove the veil when they vest for services. Hieromonks, priests who are monks, do not. Nuns in the Greek tradition normally do not wear a kamilavkion, only a veil.
Russian/Ukrainian tradition
All ranks of the clergy wear the kamilavka. These are normally taller than the Greek style, become wider as they rise, and are flat on the top. The kamilavka with the epanokamelavkion (veil) permanently attached, called a klobuk, is worn by monastics, both men and women. As bishops must be monastics, they also wear the klobuk. All monastics, both those who are ordained and those who are not, wear black kamilavkas with a black veils. As with the Greek tradition, hierodeacons remove the veil when they take part in church services, and hieromonks do not. However, a non-monastic deacon does not wear a kamilavka; a protodeacon, however, may be awarded the purple or red kamilavka.
While bishops, as monks, wear the klobuk, that is a plain black kamilavka with a black veil, the klobuk of higher ranked bishops differ. The veil for archbishops has a jeweled cross on the from of the veil. Metropolitans wear a white veil over their kamilavka, with the same cross as do the archbishops.The head dress for the Patriarch of Moscow differ more significantly. He wears a head covering called a koukoulion, a white conical head covering, instead of the kamilavka, with the monastic veil.
For non-monastic clergy, the kamilavka, of different colors, can be received as awards. Non-monastic deacons awarded the honorary rank of protodeacon wear a colored kamilavka, usually purple or red, as do archpriests. Archdeacons, however, continue to wear the black kamilavka.
Serbian tradition
Clergy of all ranks wear black kamilavkas that are flat on top. During services, monastics wear black veil over the kamilavka. Bishops wear a black kamilavka with a wide purple band at the bottom. The veil, that they wear during services, is removed when they are outside the church.

The Mandelbrot set is defined by complex numbers such as $z=z^2+c$ where $z_0=0$ for the initial point and $c\in\mathbb C$. The numbers grow very fast in the iteration.
z = 0; n = 0; l = {0};
While[n < 9, c = 1 + I; l = Join[l, {z}]; z = z^2 + c; n++];l
If n
is very large, the numbers become too large and impossible to calculate in practical time limits. I don't know what it would look after long time but doubting whether it would look like here.
What is wrong with this implementation? Why does it take so long time to calculate?
