Well, I've started reading some books again after last year being a bit hectic at times. First out to be reviewed here is Carl-Göran Ekerwald's Nietzsche – liv och tänkesätt ("Nietzsche – life and thinking"), which admittedly wasn't the best start possible.
IMHO, the problem isn't that Ekerwald doesn't know enough about his subject, it's that he can't adapt his style of writing to to writing a biography that's reader-friendly. Instead, he puts way too many interpretations and supposedly clever turns of phrase into his text in a manner that makes this more of a (very much) overlong article for the (somewhat snooty) culture pages of a newspaper. When you write a biography, you should (IMO) concentrate your stylistic skills on getting the facts about the person's life and work readable and understandable the reader, not pushing your own opinions or stylistic quirks onto said reader. Ekerwald doesn't really succeed in creating a compelling, coherent narrative about Nietzsche's life and thoughts that holds together because he constantly interrupts it with small excursions of his own opinions and comments.
So is this a waste of time? Well, no. You do learn quite a bit about Nietzsche, only not as smoothly told as I'd like. Me, I basically a) pity Nietzsche for the painful life he had to endure, both in terms of illnesses and personal (and interpersonal) failures and disappointments; and b) don't think he's entirely blameless for becoming the "Nazi philosopher" even though he wasn't a Nazi philosopher and was more or less co-opted into the movement by his sister skewing his work in that direction after his death.
Why not entirely blameless? Well, I think – and this is an opinion that has evolved while I've been reading and thinking about Nietzsche – that anybody putting forth an opinion, world-view or somesuch has a responsibility for what they're saying. If what they're saying is hateful, racist, anti-democratic etc, well, obviously they're responsible for their hateful opinions and writings. If they're not really writing hateful stuff, but formulating it so obscurely that it can well be interpreted that way, they're responsible for that as well – obviously far less culpable than in the former case, but still responsible for their texts. If confronted with that interpretation of their text and responding "no, that's definitely not what I meant", then that's that, and you can't smear them with that interpretation, but you can still express your wish that they'd written their text more clearly.
(Unless of course you're some abject idiot projecting his or her own fear and anger onto the text to make it out to be something hateful; heaven knows there's plenty of that going around in this polarized political environment.)
Anyway, there are many who write philosophical or political texts that are unnecessarily obscure; whether because they're just not very good at writing or because they think it makes their texts "better" probably varies. The result, however, is the same: the text is left open to interpretation, and different readers can project their own opinions onto it. (As can various critics, literary and political journalists etc, making for great debate fodder – debates that are basically a waste of time that could have been avoided had the author bothered to write more clearly to begin with.)
(Note: I'm trying to be clear with my opinions on this blog, so if I'm being unclear, it's due to bad thinking and/or bad English and writing skills. Just so's you know.)
But to get back to Nietzsche: He loses his father at an early age, grows up a serious little kid, comes to excel at school (except for math) and university, becomes an up-and-coming philologist, a very young professor, befriends Wagner and has a brilliant career ahead of him. But he becomes bored with the details-oriented academic work and becomes a more speculative philosopher instead – when he's not incapacitated by migraines and violent indigestion, of course. Eventually basically retiring from academia due to his health issues and living off a pension, his philosophy meets with limited success. I won't try to describe it here, as I don't consider myself competent enough – and because it's so unsystematic and goes off in so many directions that it would take a lot more time and space than this simple blog post can offer. Instead, I recommend this Wikipedia article as a good starting point or summary.
So, I can't really recommend this book. And I can't really recommend Nietzsche's philosophy, either – as with so many other historical philosophers, if you want to learn more about the subject(s) they're speculating about, read what modern research on the issues says instead. It won't leave you quite as erudite as studying the philosophers would, but it's a heck of a lot more efficient if you mainly want to learn how the world actually works.

The day I stopped collecting Marvel Comics (February 26, 2017)
Do you remember when you stopped collecting comics?
I do.
The day, February 26, 2017.
The History
It was coming as I had grown increasingly weary of Marvel's continuing reboots and simply wanted to finish Dan Slott's current Dead No More: The Clone Conspiracy arc–the first current Marvel title I've collected since that late 90's.
Slott, Spider-Man's incumbent writer, had caught my eye in 2015 with his Superior Spider-Man run. For those unfamiliar with the book, the premise alone was intriguing: What would happened if a dying Doctor Octopus was able to switch bodies with the Amazing Spider-Man Peter Benjamin Parker?
Remembering Al Jarreau (February 13, 2017)
When I first heard the name of Al Jarreau was way back when I was watching the comedy-drama mystery television series called Moonlighting (1985-1989). I clearly remember saying to myself, "Now that's an entrance theme! Who sang it?"
Back then, getting that kind of information wasn't as seamless as it is today. There wasn't any music identification apps like SoundHound or Shazam. We had to be patient and wait for the closing credits of the show.
And there it was.
Although not a product of my generation, I was able to hear more of Al Jarreau's music from my father and uncle's many playlists. Musical appreciation ensued which made hits like Boogie Down (Jarreau | 1983), Mornin' (Jarreau | 1983), We're In This Love Together (Breakin' Away | 1981), After All (High Crime | 1984), Moonlighting (TV Soundtrack | 1987) and Spain (This Time | 1980) among my personal favorites.
Fast forward to September 8, 2008 when I was–successfully I might add–able to drag my dad and brother to The Big Dome to watch Al Jarreau and George Benson perform. What I remember most from that evening was the dominating performance of Benson but it was still great to see Al Jarreau give the Araneta Coliseum a taste of his brand of music.
Born Alwin Lopez Jarreau, it was reported that the legendary singer had just retired a couple of days ago (February 9, 2017) due to persisting health concerns. News of his passing followed today. He was 76.
The Lego Batman Movie Merchandise (February 12, 2017)
Have you guys seen the movie?
Well, don't worry, I'm not going to give anything substantial away.
But I will say this much, from the amount of mini figures at appeared on the big screen, I could almost imagine the powers that be over at Lego and DC Comics locking arms and literally doing the dance of joy. It was after all an instant merchandise bonanza and commercial success.
In the Lego Batman movie, Lego Batman has loads of Batsuit mini figures that is sure (you can take that to the bank) to be released sometime this year. And the Condiment King! I can't wait for that one. But I digress, my point here is that under different circumstances, I would be a staunch opposed to variant Batmans. But somehow, this marketing gimmick seems to work in the Lego world.
With all this in mind, I decided to take a dip and purchase some of the Lego Batman Movie sets such as the Mr. Freeze Ice Attack (70901) and the Clayface Splat Attack (70904). It seems that everything is falling under the attack category these days. But seriously speaking, these are two of the cooler (pun intended) sets out there as they come with deluxe Lego figures in Mr. Freeze and Clayface.
Here is a time-lapse video of working on Clayface, Lego Batman, and Mayor McCaskill this afternoon. The whole thing took an estimated 1 hour and 28 minutes to complete.
The Lego Batman Movie: Clayface Splat Attack set comes with the aforementioned–and highly posable–Clayface figure (with interchangeable clay hammer arm); Lego Batman (with Batarang); and Mayor "Mariah Carey" McCaskill (with walkie-talkie).
How was your afternoon?
What is Ghosting? (February 11, 2017)
Over the last couple of months, I have embarked on my latest side project (Set for release by the end of August 2017) that involves a ton of research on a number of choice subjects. One of those areas, is the phenomena of Ghosting.
What is Ghosting?
Ghosting is today's popular term for disregarding or completely ignoring a person. It is commonly associated with (but not limited to) the dating scene wherein–for whatever reason–one party no longer keeps in contact with the other party.
Maybe you've gone on a few dates–with a potential Mr. or Mrs. Right–and things seem to be picking up…then all of the sudden: WHAM! No contact. No reply. Or worst yet, you can clearly see that the messages you have sent were marked read on your smart phone or Facebook Messenger.
I know it's not cool but there really are a lot of people like that out there.
What are it's effects?
Depending on the amount of physical, emotional, and psychological investment that the ghosted party has for the person they are attempting to have a relationship with–the results could be devastating as it could affect the ghosted party's self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-worth.
What can the ghosted party do?
Although it is never easy detaching yourself from someone whom you have invested in, it is best to keep some of these pointers in mind:
- You cannot have a relationship for two people.
- Marshall your emotional resources elsewhere. Make investments in people who are willing to make an equal commitment to you.
- Make time for yourself. If you can't have a relationship with yourself, how then can you have a relationship with other people?
To learn more about Ghosting, check out this in-depth article by Psychology Today's Dr. Jennice Vilhauer or you can send your questions over to my Facebook page.
Today is the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes. Keep her in your prayers today.
Putting together the Lego Movie: Super Secret Police Enforcer (30282-1) polybag set (February 10, 2017)
The polybag features a Helmeted Robo SWAT figure (which I think would go quite nicely with another Robo SWAT figure standing beside it as they flank the The Lego Movie's Bad Cop–or Good Cop or Scribblr-Face Good Cop depending on what head you have on.) and his flying vehicle.
The whole thing took about 15 minutes to complete.
Celebrating World Pizza Day 2017 with Yellow Cab Pizza Co. (February 9, 2017)
World Pizza Day 2017 is finally upon us.
The day where literally everyone who knew about the Yellow Cab Pizza Co. promotion stuffed their faces with either Smoked Bacon and Apples Pizza or New York's Finest Pizza. [My sources say that some Yellow Cab branches may have offered a third product: Hawaiian Pizza. But I will need additional testimonies before that little tidbit could be considered gospel].
I would know, well, because I was one of them.
The Process
The mechanics are pretty straightforward: The patron forks over P299 pesos (per person), is given a security bracelet indicating the time your order was punched in, and then your proverbial two-hour eating time "clock" starts ticking. In that period, you are free to consume as many slices of either Smoked Bacon and Apples Pizza or New York's Finest Pizza. In addition, you will have a bottomless glass of soda to round up your meal.
The Verdict
The perfect deal right? Well, in hindsight, not really as I felt that I wasn't able to get my money's worth since I do not drink soda–and haven't probably for the last 10 years. It would have also been nice if Yellow Cab offered an alternative beverage. Secondly, was the fact that I wasn't give a choice on what pizza I was initially going to eat as the people across the counter told me that they would take care of it.
"Taking care of it" ended up being two slices of Smoked Bacon and Apples Pizza that were cut in the middle–So I guess, this technically makes it four slices. The pizza was good but I would have appreciated warmer slices.
So, 5 3/4 slices or almost 3 whole slices later, I waved my white flag of surrender and was the first to tap out. A pitiful performance considering that I had once consumed 19 slices of Hawaiian Pizza (not my proudest moment) back when Pizza Hut was offering a similar all-you-can-eat promo.
So, how was your World Pizza Day 2017 experience?
VIP Monthly Lego Mini Model Build: Narwhal Brickset [40239-1] (February 7, 2017)
As luck would have it, we were able to make the scheduled Lego Mini Model Build over at the Lego Certified Store in Alabang Town Center yesterday.
This month's mystery build was the Narwhal Brickset (40239-1). I served as my son's assistant on this one and once it was completed, it actually came out pretty cool. The Narwhal features three points of articulation (flippers and tail).
If you ever do get a chance to put this together, take note that it's "tusk" can detach easily so it may be best to remove it upon transport.
My son made me temporary custodian of the Lego Narwhal so I was able to make it my featured post for today.

The world is wired for constant information and communication and it appears we are getting sucked in that it is a necessity. 64% of young people get anxious if they cannot use the internet. Unfortunately it encourages more and more of those qualities that men in anger management have that lead trouble. The use of face book seems to encourage narcissism, sending text message immediately sets and anticipation f a quick reply which leads to anxiety. it's called internet use disorder or iDisorder. Research indicates young people find it harder to look eye to eyeball and prefer texting each other. They felt 'less than' when interacting in person.
The brain gets overstretched by constant multi tasking It takes in a lot of facts but doesn't get the opportunity to think or reflect and is constantly chasing information through "links". This impacts critical thinking and recall. In this state of semi permanent anxiety there is little room to know one feels always thinking that more information is going to lead to more control and more power.
It is mind boggling that a study of 8 to 18 year olds spend 11 hours a day on line. A major component of anger management is learning how to protect yourself. Unfortunately what's happening will produce a weaker emotional core leading to more anxiety, stress and anger . We haven't figured out how to use this technology to serve us in generating more emotional knowledge and protection.

The number of California homes entering the home foreclosure process dropped again during 4th quarter 2009 amid signs that the worst may be over in battered marketing, while slowly spreading to more to the higher priced real estate. There are mixed signals for 2010: It's unclear how much of the drop in mortgage defaults is due to shifting market conditions, and how much is the result of changing home foreclosure policies among mortgage lenders and loan servicers, a real estate information service reported.
While many of the refinance loans that went into default during fourth quarter 2009 were originated in early 2007, the median origination month for last quarter's defaulted loans was July 2006, the same month as during the prior three quarters. The median loan origination month during the last quarter of 2008 was June 2006. This means the home foreclosure process has moved forward through one month of bad loans during the past 12 months.
Two California investment advisory firms were charged with improper procedures for short sales today by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Palmyra Capital Advisors LLC, which lists $21.7 million in assets in its ADV disclosure form, profited in three of its managed hedge funds by violating short-selling rules, the SEC alleged. The regulator claimed it found that the firm made California short sales in 2008 in advance of a public offering by Capital One Financial Corp., resulting in improper profits of $225,500.
AGB Partners LLC, which lists $10 million in assets, and its principals, Gregory Bied and Andrew Goldberger, allegedly netted thousands of dollars by shorting in advance of their purchase of stock in a secondary offering, according to the SEC. Both firms agreed to settle the SEC's charges without admitting or denying its findings.
Palmyra Capital consented to be censured and pay more than $330,000 in disgorgement and penalties. AGB Partners, Mr. Bied and Mr. Goldberger consented to be censured and pay more than $50,000 in disgorgement and penalties. An attorney for Palmyra could not be reached for comment. ABB Partners' attorney, Hardy Callcott of Bingham McCutchen LLP, declined to comment.

Is 2015 really 2006 all over again?
Last week I spoke with Brisbane's legal, accounting and engineering firms about what 2015 is likely hold for business development and marketing. And it made me think back to research I did in 2006, some nine years ago.
Our discussion was part an interactive seminar hosted by APSMA. And the number one thing that the firms I spoke to agreed on was that next year is likely to be tougher than this one. So they wanted to know two key things about getting ahead:
- How to bring the concept of innovation to life. (They felt there was a lot of talk about being innovative but very little concrete action), and
- How to do more with less.
Getting innovative
In 2006 I did a study on innovation in professional services firms which I think is equally relevant today. This graphic is based on that research and shows five practical things firms can start doing to encourage innovative practices.
I also suggested firms should start familiarising themselves with concepts like 'Design Thinking', as well as conducting observational research and interpretation. They might also consider working with professionals outside their firms, such as architects and technologists, who would bring entirely different perspectives on what they do.
Doing more with less
I also talked about eight different ways professional services firms could become more efficient in their BD and marketing spend. Here's what I said.
1.Bring marketing and business development functions closer to finance. That way they will really understand and align with the profit drivers of the business. This will also make it easier to clearly demonstrate how marketing and BD activities can impact these drivers.
2.Don't over-engineer it. Start capitalising on listening posts that already exist in your firm. For example, find out what credit control is hearing from clients? Always debrief with a new client after your first matter with them to find out what they really think. And make sure you get regular and comprehensive feedback from your referral sources.
3.Ask whether you are really adding value. Move yourself up the value chain and think of the big picture, not just the execution of your services. Bring market or client insights into all your discussions about business development.
4.Align your plan and priorities to the client's pathway to your firm. Make sure all your processes tie together: from enticing a new client to extending the relationship. Delay or rethink activities that you find aren't a measurable contribution.
5.Keep up the momentum. Don't waste too much time and energy on small things like sending emails, drawing up schedules and finessing documents. My rule is that busyness begets busyness and good levels of activity have a multiplier effect. In other words, momentum matters more than creating a masterpiece.
6.Keep building your tool kit. Don't get stuck on one model for BD – familiarise yourself with a range of marketing or sales concepts and be ready to adapt to suit your audience and situation.
7.Build networks beyond your firm and your industry. That way you can become a bridge or go to source for information or connections.
8.Be ready to play in the red zone. Competition can be fierce. So get pragmatic; not precious. There can sometimes be sensible strategic reasons for playing hard or pitching low. For example sometimes it's worth it for reputation and reference value. You just need to understand why you're doing it and capitalise.
So that is my advice for staying on top of business development and marketing 2015. Does it feel like deja vu?Or is it just that the fundamentals of good business development stay the same, no matter how technology develops or the market changes?

WEYBURN, Sask. — City council in Weyburn, Sask., has apologized to residents and other Canadians for using insensitive words after a controversial decision to reject a care home for people with disabilities.
But the council hasn't said whether it will reconsider the move.
A letter from the council, which was posted online Friday, said it's deeply sorry for what was said in council chambers earlier this week.
"We would like to sincerely apologize to the community of Weyburn, the province of Saskatchewan and fellow Canadians who have been hurt by the words said in Council Chambers on Monday," said the letter.
"The intent of the conversation was never to hurt or exclude any group or individuals. We handled the situation poorly."
Elected officials voted Monday to reject a proposal for building the group home in a new upscale residential area, saying it would dash the dreams and hopes of the people who currently live there.
Residents had cited concerns including safety and an impact on their property values.
Several Saskatchewan politicians — including Premier Scott Moe, Social Services Minister Paul Merriman and legislature member Dustin Duncan, who represents the Weyburn area — have called on city councillors to change their minds.
Coun. Dick Michel said Friday that council wanted to speak in a unified voice on the issue.
"A mistake has obviously been made and it has to be fixed," he said in an interview with The Canadian Press.
Michel said any further comment should be made by Mayor Marcel Roy, but a spokeswoman for the mayor said council's practice is not to publicly comment on any development applications during the planning process.
Before Monday's vote, resident Alexandr Korytko wrote a letter asking council to allow more time so he could learn more about the group home that would be built across the street.
He also submitted an idea for the home to go up on another lot in the neighbourhood. He suggested the location would alleviate any parking issues and not be as tight of a fit.
In follow-up messages with The Canadian Press, Korytko says his family had negative experiences with people who were mentally disabled when they previously lived in a small town in Ukraine.
"At this time, nobody can give me written paper about not keeping aggressive clients in the home. And I would like to work towards it," he said Friday.
Korytko said he believes more information about the group home is needed.
"Now I am planning to visit one of those homes, talk to neighbours to get more information," he said. "It's really something new for me and I don't know how to deal with it."
The letter from council said it supports work being done by residents, families and organizations to make Weyburn a better place.
"As a council, we are continuing to exhaust all avenues to find a solution to get the care home built and begin the healing process in the community."

Del Releases Free Album, Tours
Hieroglyphics member Del the Funky Homosapien would appear to understand both the state of today's economy and the state of today's music business, as he's announced that his next album, Funk Man, will be released for free.

This time around, he's focused on the funkier side of hip-hop for this, his seventh full-length to date. And with track titles like 'I'm Smellin' Myself" and "Hardcore Punks Can't Take It," Del hasn't, it seems, lost any of his quirk or humor over the years. Download the album now.

At the Vent Haven Museum in Fort Mitchell, Ky, you can enter a room where every seat is taken by a ventrilloquist dummy. Sounds rather creepy.
This picture fell out of a folder today. I'm going to be giving a speech and presentation in a few weeks and I thought I should review some notes from when I used to do this sort of thing.
I found one letter I'd written in 1991 which was definitely classic psychic Sal.
"Animation is an intriguing medium; the idea of making your drawings move is irresistible. I think in the future there will be an electronic medium not yet devised in which animation will play a prominent role.
Avant garde? Sometimes I think a.g. is the desire of a group of young people to meet in strange places and wear strange hats and feel bad and inspired and as if they're the only ones who really know."
Must have been taking the smart pills that day!

With the tracking number you'll be able to keep a check on the whereabouts of your parcel so you should see if it disappears or goes missing. If so, or if you haven't received your package after 10 days simply contact us to report it.
If I receive a damaged product what can I do?
Due to the exceptional craftsmanship and the checking and testing system we have in place it is highly unlikely you will receive a damaged product, however if you do simply contact us and we will handle the problem. A photo of the defect makes it really quick for us to handle the issue and send out a replacement.
Do I get a discount if I purchase a lot of bags?
The simple answer is YES. We reward loyal customers so we offer a discount which applies from your very first purchase.
Buy 1-2 items at an amazingly low retail price
Buy 3-4 items and receive a further discount, our "3i" prices.
Buy 5 or more items and you'll be bale to purchase at our lowest prices, the "5i" prices.
You can purchase different brands & styles and still qualify for the discount. Don't forget shipping is free too.
What if I don't like the bag when it arrives?
We are certain this won't happen but just in case it does and you don't like the beautiful luxury replica bag that you've been dreaming of owning for years we have a failsafe returns policy in place. It's very easy, no questions asked policy. It costs just $30 to restock the item plus shipping.
Do I have to pay custom tax?
Not usually. If there is a customs charge then it is only around $10 - $20 but this is rare. To reduce the chance of having to pay custom tax we ship in small boxes with a contents notice that says "pvc bag" or something similar.
You don't have the designer bag that I want, can you make it?
We can try. We often stock all the latest designs (as and when we can purchase them to copy) so as long as we can buy the designer bag we can probably make it for you. Simply tell us which bag you would like and if you have a website link to it even better.We will always try our very best to make any bag that is requested. The best way to let us know is to enter the name of the replica purses or bags you would like in this page
and we will notify you asap when and if we can make it for you.
I have another question, how can I ask you?
If you haven't found an answer to your question on the list above then email us with your questions.We'll do our best to get back to you within 24 hours.

The selfie-taking Portsmouth phone thief has already lost the title of Britain's dumbest crook after only a day on the throne.
Richard Lauraitis laid his own claim on the title when he decided to drive to his magistrates' court appearance in a stolen car.
Mr Lauraitis, 29, took the Vauxhall Corsa from a garage before driving it 30 miles to Yeovil, Somerset, for his court date the next day, where he was charged with the theft of a Ford Focus.
Police were made aware of the theft, and knowing Mr Lauraitis was due in court the following day, waited for him there and arrested him on arrival.
Magistrates referred the case to Taunton Crown Court for sentencing because of Mr Lauraitis' extensive criminal history, which includes multiple motoring and burglary convictions.
Judge David Ticehurst was unsympathetic, telling Mr Lauraitis: 'To turn up for a magistrates court with a car you had stolen is crass and stupid and you were bound to be caught.'
He has a point.
Mr Lauraitis, of Shepton Mallet, Somerset, admitted to burglary, unlawful vehicle-taking, theft of a Vauxhall Corsa and driving while disqualified. He was jailed for 15 months.

While prison systems and corrections officer unions are often reluctant to discuss the ills of solitary confinement, following pressure from various advocacy groups and even President Obama's stated policy goals of reducing such restrictive confinement, the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) has recently released information detailing just how common the practice of solitary confinement, or what BOP calls "Special Housing Units."
The most recent report, "Restricted Housing Data," appeared in mid-May. It shows 8,228 inmates, or approximately 5.2%, of the 159,432 inmates housed in BOP custody – i.e., those in Bureau-operated prisons, not in privately managed or other types of facilities — were in restricted confinement. In 2011, the figure was about 11,000.
Of them, 6,924 were housed on administrative detention status, while 1,304 were housed on disciplinary segregation status, only available as a formal sanction from a discipline hearing officer for misconduct. Inmates can be housed on administrative detention status for various reasons, including being under investigation for potential rule violations, awaiting transfer, protective custody, and pending transfer, and others.
In descending order of populations, the BOP data shows these reasons for its inmates being held in special housing units:
Pending investigation for a BOP violation (2,884 inmates)
Pending transfer or holdover (1,746 inmates)
Pending hearing for a BOP violation (1,217 inmates)
Inmate requested protective custody (407 inmates)
Pending classification (209 inmates)
Terminating disciplinary segregation, ordered to administrative detention (201 inmates)
Pending investigation for a criminal trial (141 inmates)
Awaiting administrative detention order (95 inmates)
Involuntary protective custody (24 inmates)
The BOP-released data also shows the amount of time federal prisoners are spending in restricted confinement. According to the data, 7,418 prisoners had been in the SHU for less than or equal to 90 days, 810 for over 90 days, 292 for over 180 days, and 65 for over 364 days. Of these, the Bureau clarifies 49 prisoners have been in the SHU for more than 30 days under protective custody status (often requested by inmates seeking isolation to avoid gang-related violence).
In January, six months after ordering the Department of Justice to examine federal uses of solitary confinement as part of a broader criminal justice reform project, the Obama administration announced executive actions designed to reduce use of restricted housing in federal prisons. Federal agencies, including BOP and Justice, were ordered to put the changes into effect within six months.
The revisions banned juvenile prisoners being placed in solitary confinement in federal prisons (only about a dozen juveniles were in solitary at the time), or for low-level offenses. The initiative also adopted over 50 detailed "Guiding Principles" for correctional facilities, devised by the Justice Department.
Despite these new federal policies, state prisons – not covered by the new federal changes — have by far more prisoners, and prisoners in solitary confinement. But the Justice Department recently reached a major settlement of civil rights charges against a Mississippi county, Hinds County, home to the state's largest city, Jackson, based on how prisoners there are treated. The proposed settlement, which must still be approved by a judge, would require the county to adopt many of the Justice Department's new principles.

You walk by this room everyday on your way to lunch at Jamesville-DeWitt High School. It's not quite in the Green Hall but it's not directly across from the Main Office. You might think that it's an administrative office, being next to the assistant principals' offices, but W01 is the English as a Second Language room. It's filled with students from all across the world and Lori Dotterer is the current teacher. She's filling in for Kristine Wisnieski, who is on parental leave for the year, and is new to the Jamesville-DeWitt School District.
So far this year she loves working with the kids because of their positive attitudes, "hard work ethic," and how they influence her. "I feel like I learn from them everyday, more than they could possibly learn from me," she said. Though she only has 18 students, they are from 10 different countries including: Russia, Tanzania, Egypt, Cuba, South Korea, China, Central African Republic, Yemen, and Indian. The hardest part for these students is learning English, she says; "English is not always their second language, sometimes it's their third of fourth language." Spanish teacher Simone Pacilio confirms Mrs. Dotterer's description; "each student needs different individual help," she said.
Mrs. Dotterer helps her students with reading, listening, speaking, and writing in English, as well as with their academic classwork. "They work hard all day in 82 minute periods and most of those classes are so English dense," she said. The ESL students help one another in areas they are struggling in. And it doesn't stop there. A lot of native English speaking J-DHS students have helped their ESL peers. "The J-DHS community is so helpful," she said.
Not only is she the new ESL teacher, but she's also the new Cultural Connections Club adviser. Senior Acura Martin is president of CCC. She's been in the club since freshman year. This is Martin's first year without Mrs. Wisnieski as the adviser, but she said that Mrs. Dotterer is hardworking and a nice person. In the club they explore different cultures through presentations and try to show people in school about different cultures. One of the ways that the club presents different cultures is through a food fair which is in the spring.
This year is her first at J-DHS and her first year teaching, though she has subbed in the Syracuse City Schools. She has been flooded with warmth and support from the whole J-D School District. "I love J-D and I honestly feel like I'm the luckiest person." She loves her job because she gets to teach her students and interact with different cultures each day. Ms. Pacilio says that Mrs. Dotterer creates a safe and comfortable environment allowing her students to work well. She also said that Mrs. Dotterer's easy going and humorous personality helps her students "adapt to the J-DHS culture."
Before becoming a teacher Mrs.Dotterer had a career in healthcare sales for 20 years. She has two master's degrees in healthcare administration policy. To earn one of those masters, she studied and went to college in Spain, where she became fluent in Spanish.
Mrs. Dotterer is an experienced globetrotter and this makes her aware of the world around her. She's been to Spain, Western Europe, Guatemala, Israel, and Mexico. Mrs. Dotterer thinks that because the world is so big, students at J-DHS may not realize it and focus on just J-DHS. "The world is so interesting," she said, "it's one of the reasons I chose this job."

Today is my one day off. After doing some history work and some other class work me and the girls decided to take a break and make something yummy. A few weeks a go we picked up some Doughnut pans at Goodwill and the girls have been dying to try them. We did a little searching online and found a recipe from The Pioneer Woman that sounded good. We used her Baked Crumb Cake Doughnuts. They were quick and easy to make in these fancy doughnut pans although they did not puff up as much as I expected. Next time I will fill the pans a little fuller.
This one thought they were really yummy. I think next time we will try for chocolate.

The Palouse
The Palouse is a farming region in Eastern Washington, north of the Snake and Clearwater Rivers, south of Spokane. The Palouse River marks the center of the area. The World Wide Fund for nature defines this ecosystem as the area east of the Big Bend region of the Colombia Plateau, north of the Umatilla mountains to the south, west of the Rocky Mountains in Idaho and south of Spokane Washington. This dune-like region has a rolling landscape with no continuous valleys or ridge lines. The hills were created by the wind rather than rivers and streams. It is one of the most productive wheat growing regions and the largest producer of lentils in the world. The Palouse is also a frequent destination for landscape artists and photographers from around the world.

Next October, during the fall break, eight Damien students and two chaperones will participate in a Mission Trip to Kalaupapa, Molokai. This immersion experience will give our students the opportunity to meet and work with the people of Kalaupapa, just as St. Damien did. While the conditions are much different now than when Damien first served there, the service our students will offer will not only be of help to those who still live there, but even more importantly, this immersion into the lives, culture, and faith of the people will be life changing. Furthermore, through fundraising, all-school prayer, and other awareness-building activities, we intend for the entire student body to in some way take part in the immersion so they too can grow from the experience. Together, as a Damien Ohana, we intend to reach our target funding goal of $4000 to the mission expenses for the students and chaperones.
Also representing Damien in mission service, Ms. Elle Stricklen has been selected by the Office of Educational Services of the Edmund Rice Christian Brothers North America to represent Damien in the Pilgrims in Perú program this summer. While the pilgrimage to Lima, Perú, is funded by the Christian Brothers, we are helping to raise awareness of the program and contribute funds to the service projects and ministry sites. The goal is to reach $500 that will go directly to the ministry sites, including a school and orphanage. Upon her return, Ms. Stricklen will share her valuable experiences with the Damien community in order to help us all grow in our faith and cultural understanding.
Your donations and prayers make service trips like these possible. Any donation, no matter the amount, is greatly appreciated and humbly accepted. With your help, we can reach our overall goal of $4,500. God bless.

Child Safety Day at District D-14 in Brighton Leaves Everybody Smiling/
Child Safety Day at District D-14 in Brighton Leaves Everybody Smiling: On Sunday, May 18, 2014, Captain Wayne Lanchester and the officers of District D-14 in Brighton welcomed hundreds of children and their parents to the 16th Annual Child Safety Day held at the District D-14 station located at 301 Washington Street in Brighton. This year's celebration which, in addition to face painting, food and tons of fun, was highlighted by some of the following events: Child Safety Seat instruction and installations, fingerprinting & photographing of the kids courtesy of Operation Code Blue which is run by the Association of Retired Boston Police Officers, a bicycle safety demo and rodeo, as well as, meet-n-greets and demonstrations by Boston EMS, Boston Fire and Boston Police. All in all, a great time was enjoyed by all. Kudos to all involved for making the 16th Annual Child Safety Day another huge success. Special thanks to McGruff the Crime Dog & Boston University mascot Rhett the Terrier for making the day extra special.

2nd Annual Color To Cure MS event hosted on May 20th, 2016 at Ubiquia's office in downtown Phoenix, raising $4,370!
Five years ago the CEO of Ubiquia, Dale Swanson, learned his wife was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. A chronic and unpredictable disease of the central nervous system, it causes the immune system to incorrectly attack healthy tissue in the CNS. Their family joined over 2.3 million others like theirs who are affected by MS worldwide.
Dale's software development company, made up of developers, software engineers, account representatives, and creative team, joined up to work with the National Multiple Sclerosis Society's Phoenix chapter. Having their first fundraising event in May of 2015 and raising a little over $2,000, they decided to make Color To Cure MS an annual event. Creating the hashtag #Color2CureMS and dying their hair in a rainbow of colors, the Ubiquia team worked to raise money and awareness to this cause that affects so many families across the world. "We're all family and it's close to home for us. It's something that we can all do for the greater good," says Dale during his speech during their event on May 20th, 2016.
The event was held at their office in downtown Phoenix where they featured a Hawaiian fusion food truck, Island Loco, and showcased the art and musical talents of local musician Ray Gomez. The event was wrapped up with a color powder toss, with the whole crew dressed in white paint suits and armed with multi-colored powder. This year Ubiquia raised $4,370 for the National MS Society, over double of what they raised the previous year with the help of corporate sponsors like Axosoft and Janam Technologies with whom they partner with. "Maybe next year we can go double again," Dale announced.
Any contribution helps. The money raised will help fund amazing progress in MS research, as well as programs and services that ensure people affected by MS can live their best lives. Donate to the MS Society at www.nationalmssociety.org/goto/color2curems and help us create a world free of MS!

I have earbuds in my ears a lot. I love reclaiming time, or multiplying my time, by listening to something while doing something that doesn't require my ear attention. Yard work, driving, watching my kids play soccer, walking to work, exercising – all of these are times when I can listen to podcasts without affecting whatever else I am busy with. Before I list the podcasts that fill my time, I'll also mention that you need to find the correct times for listening to podcasts, and when to turn them off. For instance, I started writing this blog post with a podcast on. Two sentences in and I realized that I hadn't really heard anything on the podcast. When you need to be paying attention and focused on what you're doing, don't distract yourself.
Biblical Studies (and other Academic)
Probably no surprise tha biblical studies podcasts are the ones I gravitate to the most. And there are some great ones out there that I can heartily recommend to you. There are probably more than this, and if you have a suggestion, please leave them in the comments.
Kingdom Roots Podcast: The Kingdom Roots podcast is a podcast by Scot McKnight. I find McKnight to be a great communicator, I actually find him most clear in speech over against writing. The podcast genre, with a host that asks him questions, really puts McKnight in his element.
Naked Bible Podcast: Michael Heiser is a force of nature in my opinion – in fact I'd love to sit down with this man at some point to understand how he manages to produce so much. He works at Logos, he has a busy blog, a great podcast, and is publishing books and articles. The first dozen or so episodes are a little slower as it is strictly a monologue. But it becomes a little more casual and natural once the new format of having a host comes into play. Many of these podcasts are like audio commentaries on chapters of the Bible, and Michael is unapologetic in his desire to understand what the text meant. He eschews any theological or practical considerations. In short, he's my kind of guy!
The PaulCast: This is a new podcast but has already had some stellar episodes and I have no doubt the quality will continue. Kurt Willems is a pastor and a pauline scholar who really knows his stuff. The early episodes called "Entering the Convo" will help many to understand the state of discussion on Paul in scholarship today.
NT Pod: Mark Goodacre, as usual, was at the forefront of the new technology and has one of the first (perhaps the first?) podcast for academic Biblical studies. While I don't ultimately agree with Goodacre on all issues, he is a bright and articulate scholar whom I highly respect. A minor annoyance with the podcast feed is that the episodes are listed out of order (not sure why).
Reasonable Faith Podcast: WL Craig is the main apologist of our time and I appreciate that he covers a range of issues. This podcast also helps me stay somewhat current on apologetics in general, and the intersection of faith and science in particular.
Occasional Listenings
I subscribe and listen to every episode of the above podcasts. Here are some other biblical studies and academically related podcasts I cherry-pick from.
Theology in the Raw: A little shorter and a little less in-depth by nature, I nonetheless really enjoy Preston Sprinkle's podcast. His multi-part podcast on the issue of homosexuality (stemming from his book People to Be Loved) is quite good. However, and this is most unfortunate, the early episodes (including the ones I just mentioned) don't seem to be on the feed anymore. This kind of goes against the whole point of podcasts, but my guess is that the radio program that then publishes the podcasts doesn't want to pay for the storage space, which is very unfortunate.
History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps: A student turned me on to this one and I've enjoyed a few episodes of it so far and look forward to listening to more of them.
History of Christian Theology: This is a brand new one I've stumbled upon and so far I'm enjoying it. It may move soon to the "listen to every episode" list.
Church Leadership / Sermons
All of these podcasts sit in the "occasional listening" category for me, as I don't listen to every single episode of any of them.
Meeting House Sermon Podcast: Bruxy Cavey is a great speaker/preacher that is quite rich in content. I've listened to quite a few sermon podcasts, including all of the big names, and Cavey in my opinion seems to be the best read in the academic arena on the topics he preaches on. This is a breath of fresh air and I would love to see more preachers like this. He doesn't water down the content for his people, he provides a buffet and challenges them to go deeper.
Woodland Hills Sermon Podcast: Greg Boyd is another preacher who reads widely in academia and doesn't water things down in the sermon. I appreciate people like Boyd who stands in the old-school tradition of being a serious theologian/academic while also being active in ministry.
Leadership Momentum Podcast: I am not one who follows any one mega-church pastor religiously, but I'm also not one to bash these people and think they don't have anything worthwhile to say. The podcasts interacting with these people is enormous. So I've chosen one to subscribe to that has these big-named pastors on as guests.
Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast: Similar to the above podcast, but longer and published more frequently. I really respect Nieuwhof and I cherry-pick episodes on this podcast.
There aren't a ton of parenting podcasts from a Christian perspective. The first one is newer and I listen to all of them, the second one I cherry-pick.
Parenting Great Kids: I got turned on to Meg Meeker when I read her book Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters. So I was happy to see her new podcast on parenting.
Growing Leaders Podcast: I've called Tim Elmore at times my at-a-distance parental mentor. I really enjoy his blog and his podcast. This is a bit of a blend between leadership, youth, and parenting. I cherry-pick the episodes more related to parenting and teens.
Productivity (and Business-type-stuff)
Readers know I'm a bit of a productivity and lifestyle junky. I've learned a lot from these podcasts, been inspired, learned skills, and have received tips on blogging and advertising (for things like my courses).
This Is Your Life: I'm not sure how I stumbled upon Michael Hyatt, but I've enjoyed his blog and podcast for a long time. A mix of business, leadership, and productivity, I'm subscribed to this one.
EntreLeadership Podcast: This is a lot like the above in that it has a wide range of topics, but mixed in with this is talk on stewardship that I enjoy (It is under the David Ramsey brand after all). I'm subscribed to this one as well.
Related more directly to online business-type stuff, I also cherry-pick from the Freedom Fast Lane podcast as well as the Smart Passive Income podcast. Related more to life-coaching and productivity, I cherry-pick from the Tim Ferris podcast and the School of Greatness podcast.
By way of conclusion, I want to mention that if you use an iOS device for podcasts, I'd recommend Overcast as your podcast app. While I love apple, the apple podcast app doesn't hold a candle to Overcast (which is free, but is happy to take a donation as payment if you want to). Lastly, you see that I listen to a lot. One way I get through a lot of listening is by speeding up the podcast, usually to about 1.75x speed. Your brain can process listening faster than most people speak. And with Overcast, you can set a speed for each podcast (if a speaker is especially slow or fast). It also has a setting that analyses the podcast and skips dead-air space.
There's my list! Let me know if I'm missing any stellar podcasts, particularly in the Biblical studies area.

Cygwin shells are a nice replacement for the standard Win32 console.
However, I had no convenient way of opening a Cygwin console at a given location, in the spirit of the 'Open Command Line Here' XP powertoy.
After playing with bash/rxvt I found a way to do this. Replace your C:\cygwin\cygwin.bat with the following lines:
@echo offC:\cygwin\bin\bash --login -i -c 'cd "`cygpath %1`";rxvt -title \"%1\" -fg white -bg black'
Then open an explorer window (assuming Windows XP), go into Tools -> Folder options, File types, select (NONE) Folder, click on 'Advanced', 'New', give an action name such as 'Open Cygwin shell here' and select C:\Cygwin\cygwin.bat as the program to be launched.
If everything went as planned, you should now have a working 'Open Cygwin shell here' line in your context menu for folders.
Note: I am using rxvt to enable support for escape codes. I am looking for a way to have working escape codes in a Win32 console. If you know how, please drop me an email :-)

Lila Bredemeier
Mrs. Lila "Lucille" Judd Bredemeier, 90, of Marion, Kansas, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Jan. 14, 2016. She was born May 25, 1925, in Cottonwood Falls, Kansas.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Frank E. and Sylvia Judd of Cottonwood Falls; her husband, Charles "Junior" Bredemeier, of Marion; her sister, Doris L. Foster; her brother, Gene Judd of Cottonwood Falls; and her daughter, Shirley Bredemeier of Northwood, New Hampshire.
Lucille was a graduate of Chase County Community High School in Cottonwood Falls, Kansas. Upon graduation, she worked for the phone company in Cottonwood and Marion, and later Marion National Bank in Marion. Lucille and Junior were married in Marion in February of 1945.
She was an accomplished trumpet player and entertained many local groups with her musical skills. She also could yodel and enjoyed demonstrating that to all who would ask her to. Lucille loved to paint, especially china and oils; enjoyed bird watching; and she adored her dog, "Precious." She and Junior loved to camp and were active members of the Marionettes Camping Club. They began camping in a tent and eventually moved up to a nice RV camper. They were a terrific couple who loved life and each other.
Lucille is survived by her son, Charles "Chuck" Bredemeier and wife Carole of Marion; grandchildren, Wade Bredemeier and wife Christine, and Jeremy Bredemeier and wife Mari; and her great-grandchildren, Emma Joy, Dillon Carl, and Jase Walker.
Lucille will be lovingly remembered by the Judd and Bredemeier families as well as many longtime friends.
A funeral service was 10:30 a.m. Monday, January 18, 2016, at Zeiner Funeral Home of Marion. Interment was in Marion Cemetery.
A memorial has been established for Bethesda Home of Goessel in care of Zeiner Funeral Home, 205 Elm St., Marion KS 66861. Online condolences may be left at: www.zeinerfuneralhomes.com.

Planting Day
My Granddaddy and Uncle Addison always had an awesome garden....
When I asked them about it, both of them said they followed the signs of the moon and the farmers almanac.
I wish I had been able to learn more from them before they were gone. But as a young girl and then a young mother I just took for granted they would be around a lot longer.
Later in my life I remembered the things I learned from them when it came to our family garden. So last week according to the farmers almanac, one of the days good to plant ground crops was Saturday, Feb. 27th. A few days before the 27th, my daughter and oldest granddaughter cut the potatoes (making sure there was at least one eye on each cut piece) and let them harden over before planting.
Planting day is always fun and Saturday was not exception. We planted later in the day because two birthday parties were planned here at the farm earlier in the day.
Of course I brought my camera and took a few photos to preserve this memory of our planting day. Our next day to plant is March 7th and 8th. On those days it says to plant above the ground crops.
I thank God He has allowed us to be here for our children and grand children to pass along what we have learned, so that they may pass it to the next generation.

Judy Davidson, Scott County Republican Party Chairman
I read with concern the editorial "Let the straw poll expire" and respectfully disagree with this sentiment. I fully support the 2015 Iowa Straw Poll.
The Straw Poll is an event for political grassroots participation at its finest. It gives Iowans the opportunity to meet with and hear from the presidential candidates.
Conversely, it also provides a forum for the candidates to hear directly from Iowans. Those who attended the Iowa GOP's Lincoln Dinner on May 16 got a glimpse of straw poll activity at the post-dinner receptions held by all of the candidates. Attendees were able to visit one-on-one with Gov. Bobby Jindal, Gov. Jeb Bush, Dr. Ben Carson, Carly Fiorina, Donald Trump, Gov. Scott Walker, Sen. Rick Santorum, Sen. Lindsey Graham, and Gov. Rick Perry. It was a wonderful opportunity for the candidates and the voters to meet and personally discuss issues of importance.
The 2015 Iowa Straw Poll will give Iowans this same kind of personal interaction with the candidates but on a much grander scale.

Hedge Fund Equity Exposure From Carpenter AnalyticsPublished October 1st, 2008 in Sentiment
Last week I briefly mentioned in the weekly sentiment overview that aggregate hedge fund equity exposure was actually short.
Just a few weeks ago this metric from Carpenter Analytics dropped close to the low in 2004. But it has since recovered and is now just below the zero line again.
This is a tough indicator to interpret not only because it doesn't seem to have a pattern, but also because it is difficult to know how accurate it is (since it is "reverse engineered" rather than compiled from source like a survey). In any case, I wanted to share it with you for what its worth.

One Response to "Hedge Fund Equity Exposure From Carpenter Analytics"
Oct 1st, 2008 at 5:08 pm
I'm not sure at all of what I'm going to write, but I guess that's a momentum-like indicator, hence it's pointing out this is the minimum in equity exposure and from this moment it could cross well beyond zero starting to rise, or, as a very good bastard momentum indicator, could bounce back from the zero line, sinking again

If you are serious about wanting to get more videos on page one of Google then you need to read on.
Tube Rank Explosion has to be the best and most complete YouTube training I've seen in ages.
My friend Lenny is an underground Youtube guy who's been ranking videos almost as long as YouTube has been around.
He's not part of the big product launching scene. So this is your lucky day.

E-com store
Affiliate or CPA offers

Or send it to a local company and rent the leads.
Tube Rank Explosion is a mega 40-video course that covers every single aspect of YouTube ranking you could ever imagine.
From the basics to more advanced stuff. A few of the strategy, I'd never heard of.
And it's mega cheap too. Lenny has maxed out the value and messed up the pricing.

William R. Mook, MD
My Story:
As an Athletic Trainer, I don't always make the best patient. After several months of increasing pain and limited use of my elbow, I decided my self treatment wasn't helping. I have been a patient of OrthoVirginia since 2008 (then Commonwealth Ortho) and knew the doctors were phenomenal. I got an appointment with Dr. Mook, a new doctor to the practice, and he took awesome care of my elbow. He knew immediately what I needed, but took the extra time and care to make sure I understood everything (and even took the time to answer my questions about a different injury). Within 24 hours, I had ZERO elbow pain. That was 3 months ago! I am back to working out, picking up and playing with my 2 children, and working with my hands as though I never had an issue. Thanks Dr. Mook and OrthoVirginia!
Thanks to my care at OrthoVirginia, I can...pick up my babies, care for my athletes, and work 10 -12 hour work days pain free!!
