To translate octal numbers into the binary system need every figure be represented in the form of triads of binary digits. For example, the octal number 765 decomposed into triads as follows: 7 = 111, 6 = 110, 5 = 101. The result is the binary number 111110101.
For the translation of hexadecimal numbers to a binary system of notation you need every figure to represent a tetrad of binary digits. For example, the hexadecimal number 967 decomposed into tetrads as follows: 9 = 1001, 6 = 0110, 7 = 0111. The result is the binary number 100101100111.
To translate a decimal number in the binary system of notation, it is necessary to divide it into two, each time recording the result in the form of a whole number and a remainder. The division must continue until, until the number is equal to one. The total number is obtained by consistent recording of the result of the last division and remainders of all divisions in reverse order. As an example, the figure shows the procedure of decimal number 25 in the binary system of notation. Successive division by two gives the following residue sequence: 10011. Deploying it on the contrary, obtain the required number.
Therefore, having a series of multiplications by 2 to the right of the vertical zeroes, we finish the process of translating a decimal number less than one in the binary number system and record the response: it is Clear that the more often we meet such a source decimal when multiplying by 2 digits, standing on the right from the vertical will not result in there only zeros.
Useful advice
We already know how to translate numbers in different number systems. Let's see how this happens with the binary number system. Let's convert the number from binary to decimal. So was invented the octal and hexadecimal systems scaleni. They are comfortable as decimal numbers that represent the number requires fewer digits. As compared to decimal numbers, binary representation is very simple.
Advice 2: How to translate a number in binary number system
Due to limitations in the use of symbols, the binary system is the most convenient for use in computers and other digital devices. Only two symbols: 1 and 0, so this system is used in the work registers.
The binary number system is positional, i.e. the position of each digit in the number corresponds to a specific discharge, which is equal to two in the appropriate degree. The degree starts from zero and increases as you move from right to left. For example, the number 101 is equal to 1*2^0 + 0*2^1 + 1*2^2 = 5.
To translate the number from any other number system to binary, you can use two methods: successive division by 2 or by translating each digit of the number in the table to the appropriate four binary digits.
Widespread among positional systems also use octal, hexadecimal and decimal number system. And if the first two are more applicable to the second method, the translation from the decimal system applies to both.
Consider the translation of decimal numbers into the binary system the method of successive division by 2.To convert the decimal number 25 to binary, you need to divide it by 2 until until 0. Residues obtained at each step of the division is written to the string right to left, after the record figures of the last remnant this will be the final binary number. So, 25/2 = 12, remainder 1 => 1;12/2 = 6, remainder => 0;6/2 = 3, remainder => 0;3/2 = 1, remainder 1 => 1;? = 0, 1 in balance => 1.The entry of the transfer as follows: 25_10 = 11001_2.
Octal and hexadecimal numbers are converted to binary by replacing each digit by the corresponding four code symbols of the binary number system. The translation table looks like the following: 0=0000, 1=0001, 2=0010, 3=0011, 4=0100, 5=0101, 6=0110, 7=0111, 8=1000, 9=1001, A=1010, B=1011, C=1100, D=1101,E=1110, F=1111.For example:61_8 => [6=0110][1=0001] => 01100001_2;9EF_16 => [9=1001][E=1110][F=1111] => 100111101111_2.

Twin Julias., a photo by Leenechan on Flickr.
Well, right now, at least. Our rose garden is still young!
It's a shame that "Julia Child" seems to be harder to photograph than the other roses. In spite of her small stature, she's a very generous plant.
"Aptos" actually bloomed a little yesterday, but the flower was destroyed by rain. The bloom was still single instead of semi-double, but it's supposedly not unusual for a young hybrid musk rose to screw it up for the first flush. At least this time the flower was the proper apricot instead of white.
We planted "Aptos" in September of last year (you can really plant own-root roses anytime, but I personally wouldn't recommend planting them in Zone 5 or 6 any later than the middle of September). It started out as a band, and now it's just shy of three feet tall. At this point our tallest rose is "Moondance" at 43 inches, then "Aptos" at 34 inches, followed by our potted "Silver Shadows" at 24 inches. So you can see we have a very young rose garden!
"Julia Child" is currently only about six inches tall. But such a bloomer!

Last summer- or maybe it was the summer before – I was reading the four huge volumes that make up the journals of Lucy Maud Montgomery.
She is my favorite author and I don't give a damn who knows it.
The reason is – although she was only a 'childrens/young adult author' her books managed to contain every single thing about being human that is worth anything. I don't know how she gathered up the simple fact that the only really interesting things in the world are (in her words) births, deaths, scandal and marriages, but she did and was able to weave her stories in such a way that they remain relevant and true to us 90 years later.
Every copy I have of all 20 of her books are dog-eared and pen-marked and well-worn. I have whole passages memorized and I believe that the only man for me is actually a conglomeration of Barney Snaith in The Blue Castle and Jane's father in Lantern Hill.
Yes, yes, Jane's father, but oh, Barney Snaith. You guys have no idea. Or, if you do, then you must agree with me.
In the Emily series, L.M. wrote what I consider the best of all her works. They were certainly the most autobiographical of all her books.
Reading Montgomery's journals was an odd experience. Finding the woman behind the characters I love was often surprising. In her journals, she is lively, funny, fond of society and people, interested in daily happenings, even weirdly snobby and racist, and always prone to fits of sadness and isolation.
She was very young when her mother died.
Interestingly, in all of her books, there is no real mother figure. If the mother exists, she is a shadow with no real character. More often than not, Montgomery's mother-figures are Aunts and Grandmothers and older sister's.
The character of the father is always the ideal father; loving, wise, understanding and compassionate. Lucy loved her father very much, even though he actually abandoned her to the care of her strict grandparents and moved away from her to re-marry.
It seems odd that she loved him so much, when he outright rejected her, but perhaps this was just the textbook example of the woman who idealizes the father no matter what he does.
When she was older she went to college and taught school. She was always moving from place to place, teaching and meeting new people. She had several love affairs, but her curious, intellectual snobbery pushed her to marry for intellect and not love. This turned out to be a bad decision, as the man she chose for his brains ended up making her life miserable.
When Lucy's grandmother became ill, she went home to take care of her. Because of Montgomery's unwillingness to turn her ailing grandmother out of the only home her grandmother had ever known, poor Lucy ended up waiting thirteen years to marry her fiance, Ewan McDonald. It was during this time, isolated on a farm in Cavendish, when she wrote her first novel and was rocketed to instant literary fame.
When she finally did marry the Reverend Ewan he turned out to be mentally ill – given to fits of 'religious melancholy' and erratic behavior. For the rest her life, Lucy would be stuck caring for him. His mental state, combined with the rigidity of being a minister's wife in several narrow-minded communities, must have been extremely frustrating for the lively, educated, and sensitive Lucy.
Anne of Green Gables and the rest of her books made her a national celebrity and known all over the world, but Lucy Maud would end by committing suicide in 1942. It was a rather startling and gloomy end to an author who was always pinpointed as a 'romantic and happy-hearts-and-flowers' writer.
This reality, when measured against Lucy's stories, is just what I find so interesting about her writing. The stories are light and humorous and often romantic, but when you really delve into them, there exists a much darker side.
Of course, measuring her books by our standards today, they can be passed off as a by-product of the era; a very 'Victorian' style with morals about temperance and an overlay of prudishness, but underneath that, there are human passions; love, jealousy, hate, grief and loneliness. Here are the things that make people really live, and, always, Montgomery's sly and sardonic humor to give it that light feel.
In Emily of New Moon you meet Emily Starr, who is ten years old and orphaned by the recent death of her beloved father. She has to go live with her two Aunts and her odd Cousin Jimmy at New Moon Farm. She has a flare for writing and the book is made up of a series of letters to her dead father as well as anecdotes. Emily goes from little girl to young girl, establishing her world of New Moon, her strong personality full of pride, her circle of friends and family, and her ambition to write.
This book sets up Emily's personality. She is stubborn, smart, sensitive, and imaginative. We are introduced to Ilse, wild and neglected, who becomes Emily's best friend. We meet Perry, the hired boy, who is full of ambition and will spend the next ten years openly asking Emily to marry him every so often. She always refuses. We meet the dreamy Teddy Kent, a natural artist, with whom Emily instantly feels kismet.
Teddy's mother, Aileen Kent, is a most interesting character. She is a widow and Teddy is all she has, so she loves him to the point of unnatural obsession. His mother has been badly burned by dropping an oil lamp. Her face is scarred, so she never leaves the house. From the start she sees Emily as a threat, and Emily feels this, but does not understand it. Mrs. Kent is a character that develops as the series goes on, and she goes from creepy to sympathetic as the reader watches her through Emily's eyes. Indeed, as Emily goes from child to woman, her empathy for certain tragic figures in her life grows and evolves.
Montgomery was something of a genius when writing characters with tragic histories. She understood very well how things can happen to us; things that mess us up forever. It was her gift. She really saw people. Not just their surface exhibition of what they wanted to show the world, but the layers that they hid behind. It is another reason I think she was so successful as a writer.
Emily is particularly sensitive and has something she calls the flash, which she gets from time to time when she is really happy. She has psychic experiences where she sees visions. In each book, there is an episode where Emily has a vision and changes the life of someone around her. She doesn't like these episodes, and tries to forget them when they happen, but it is a trait that lends to Emily's special sensitivity to the world around her.
I always wonder if L.M. Montgomery wasn't a bit of a sensitive herself. She did write about an experience she had when her best friend passed away. She was sitting in her parlor – they had parlors back then – and she suddenly felt she was not alone. She said aloud to her cat: If (her best friend) is here, then make (the cat) come and kiss me. The cat immediately got up and walked over and licked her hand. According to L.M., this was unusual, as the animal was not usually affectionate.
The second book, Emily Climbs, is set in a nearby town where Emily goes off to high school. In school, she develops as a writer, gets her first poem published, learns to live with a detestable family member, and realizes she's in love with Teddy Kent, her childhood friend.
Aunt Ruth is another character that develops into a sympathetic person. She is crotchety, suspicious of Emily's every move and motive, and endlessly invades her niece's personal space. Emily has a hard time learning to live with her, but an education is important, so she toughs it out.
Then there comes the scandal. Emily, Ilse, Teddy and Perry are trapped by a blizzard one night and forced to spend the night in an abandoned house. To their families, the incident is a minor one. The 'children' did what they needed to do to weather the storm and no one thinks much about it, but in the town where Emily goes to high school, the gossip begins cruelly and increases. Emily is ostracized by people and asked to resign from some local charities that she has volunteered for.
It's here that I sort of love Aunt Ruth. She goes to battle, sweeping in and calling down all those stuck-up people who would talk smack about her niece. It's a lovely moment in the book, and although Emily doesn't feel she will ever 'love' her aunt, she comes to respect her.
Teddy and Emily. Never fully got it. Teddy is not a strong character in the book. For me, he just didn't have enough of a personality. There are many, many references to him, but Lucy Maud never really draws a full picture of him the way she does with Dean or Perry or Ilse. His figure remains this ideal of all that Emily wants in a man, but you never really understand why he's so great. Unless it's that he's an artist and sensitive to beauty just like Emily.
For me, just sharing some things in common isn't enough. There has to be something else. A contrast, if you will, so that there is a mutual sharing of one another's strengths and weaknesses. In other words, the person should be strong where you are not, and vice versa.
I get the feeling that L.M. was trying to create a soulmate for Emily, in the sense that he's so perfect for her we don't even need to know why. It should be obvious. But it kind of isn't. So no, I never liked Teddy as much as I should.
Teddy is madly in love with Emily too. He paints her face into all of his paintings of women. Despite this obvious sign that he loves her, everyone just goes about saying: Oh well, it must just be a quirk of his – left over from an old, unconscious, emotion. No big deal. I don't know, but I'd be a tad suspicious if an artist painted everyone to look like me.
But Emily is too blind to see it, and too prideful to say anything until he says something first. The book ends with nothing said between them as Teddy goes off to Montreal and Emily gives up a chance to go to New York and work on a newspaper.
Emily stays home to write. This is a fine example of Montgomery. You might think that she arranges matter thus because Emily has to be the typical early twentieth century woman and stay home and wait for Teddy. In a way, you'd be right, but there is one very important thing about L.M.: She has a thing about homes and about Prince Edward Island.
In her books, simple home life always wins out over glamorous big city lights.
It's very romantic. I don't totally agree with the idea that home is best, but I'm not Montgomery. She loved PEI. It was 'her place' and every one of her books is set there.She was always homesick for it; the beauty of it. It's interesting how one can be homesick for places that one has spent very little time in. I am always a bit homesick for Paris, France, for instance, even though I have only spent a few weeks there altogether. But both times I have flown in and out of it, I have cried to leave it, and cried to touch down in it. It's a place I will always feel is 'home' to me, no matter where I was born.
Montgomery always felt that about PEI, even though she actually did not live there her entire life. Certainly, as I grow older, I note the longing for 'place' that naturally occurs in us all. The lure of the horizon is all very well, but the world can be empty and cold, too. There is something to be said for roots.
Book three! Emily's Quest is my favorite. In it, we have Emily, left alone on the farm while all her friends go off to Montreal and college. The book is starkly honest about her depression and despair when she is stuck home writing and getting rejected all over the place. We have her friend, Dean Priest, the older man who knew her father just hanging around and biding his time until he can catch her on the rebound.
Dean Priest. He's a fascinating sketch. He has one shoulder higher than the other, and therefore life has not been very kind to him. Because he's slightly handicapped, he has spent his life reading everything and traveling all over the world. He is clever, rich, tragic and about twenty years older than Emily. He meets her when she is ten. He saves her from falling over a cliff, and the two have become good friends. His brilliance appeals to Emily's smarts, and she looks on him as something of a mentor. Its obvious through all the books that Dean is just hanging around waiting for her to grow up so he can marry her. Despite his initial creepiness, I always liked Dean more than Teddy. He is so much more interesting and tragic.
Meanwhile, Teddy is off in Montreal with Ilse, forgetting about Emily and meeting other women. He only comes back every so often, and every time, he is more and more full of himself. Emily feels the connection between them fading, but she is too prideful to try and stop it. So all she does is write and wait rather hopelessly for Teddy to grow up and figure it out.
In short, it has all the elements of a woman waiting with no end in sight – and most women have some inkling what that's like.
Because it's Montgomery, the series ends happily enough, but despite everything coming right in the end, there was always an element to the books that left me vaguely unhappy. I suppose, it is because the books touch too closely to real life to be really happy.
Dean's fate, for instance, always bothered me. He was so miserable his entire life, and suffered cruelly. He doesn't ever get what he wants. Emily's silent loss of hope is so intense and personal that you get the feeling that she will always be scarred by it, even after it turns out all right. By comparison, Teddy does not seem to have suffered much, he only gets his ego nicely deflated.
I suppose that it may be why I think the series is the best of Montgomery's. It is a very real, very touching portrait of a woman and her stupid choices, as well as her good ones. Emily is pursuing her dream. She is ambitious and clever and working steadily away at becoming a famous author, but she is also experiencing the isolation that ambition and being clever can bring. Like when one of the Popes (can't remember which one) was given a hand-carved bed. He said: "It is beautiful, but I shall die in it." If the Emily books were true-to-life, they probably wouldn't turn out so well.
Montgomery knew what she wrote. She knew about pain and being alone and being left behind. She knew about how choices can ruin your life or save it.
Montgomery was a master at character. She wrote character so well, Mark Twain called her Anne (of Green Gables) 'the sweetest creation of a child since the immortal Alice" and as one master to another, he would know.
Character is a difficult thing to write, much less master. I think it is one of the hardest things as a writer to really create life on the page. Montgomery is my favorite author because she has mastered character. Although I haven't been writing much lately, I study her style to see what I can take from it. She draws a fine portrait of people; she lets their flaws show as well as their beauty. She writes real people and not puppets. She lets people be themselves on the page.
Because of my initial, absent-minded, sort of dreamy gaze, I generally look at people with, most people think I am never really paying attention. They are often right. If I am coming up from the depths of a book, for instance, it might take me a few moments to figure out where I am. Same as when I'm writing. I might look at you in a puzzled, irritable, way, as if I am none to sure who you are. Which I am not. At least not for a few seconds. All this a character writer does not make. But I cant help it. There seems to be a sort of invisible blanket between me and the world – a lot of the time. I don't know what to do about it at this point. I pay attention when it matters, I guess. Like in class. And while driving. But when someone is explaining whats wrong with my brakes or what the job I'm interviewing for involves…yeah, I tend to drift off into other realms.
Lucy Maud knew how to pay attention to people. She knew what made them work, and if she didn't, she explored it until she did. Through literature and art and social happenings of the day. She read the newspapers and traveled as much as she could. She examined her world, wherever she was, whether it was large or small. I think its the secret to writing people. Pay attention to human frailty and human strength. Figure it out. Then make it fit.

Seattle-based Columbia Pacific Management and the affiliated alternative investment firm Columbia Pacific Advisors have acquired a senior housing operator in India and said they plan to significantly expand their portfolio in that country over the next five years.
The actions, according to Columbia Pacific, are spurred by the speed of growth of the senior population in India, which already totals 100 million, and an emerging middle class there.
Serene Senior Care, the acquired company, has 735 residential units in four senior housing communities in South India and plans to have 1,700 units under management by this fall, according to Columbia Pacific. Columbia Pacific Management said it plans to more than quintuple the number of the units Serene Senior Care has under management, to 5,000 units within five years. Two new communities are planned for Bangalore.
"Columbia Pacific Management has been operating hospitals in India for more than a decade, and we are one of the most experienced operators of senior housing both in the U.S. and China," said Matthew Powell, development director for Columbia Pacific Management.
Columbia Pacific Advisors said it has built an acquisition and development pipeline that consists of more than 3,300 senior housing units, more than 1,200 multifamily units and more than 1.2 million square feet of commercial space around the United States.
Columbia Pacific Management's hospital companies operate 28 hospitals and three clinics across India, China, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia and Kenya under the brands Columbia Asia, Columbia China and Columbia Africa. Columbia Asia, which operates hospitals in India, Malaysia and Indonesia, opened its first hospital in India in 2005 and now has 11 multispecialty hospitals in India, the company said.
In 2011, Columbia Pacific Management received government approval to open the first foreign-owned, for-profit senior care facility in China, according to the company. The company said it now owns and operates three senior care facilities there — two in Shanghai and one in Beijing — with a pipeline of additional communities under development.

DesignOffice has distilled the brand values of Handpicked Wines to create an urban cellar door that takes customers on a journey of wine and space.
December 14th, 2016
Bob Barrett
Handpicked Wines offers exactly what its name suggests: handpicked wines and grapes from around Australia and the world that reflect "a supreme sense of place." Handpicked Wines has opened its flagship cellar door in Chippendale, Sydney, providing an environment in which the brand's values are distilled into the architecture, design and experience of the space, and similarly reflect a supreme sense of place.
"Handpicked Wines is a contemporary and non-traditional wine brand that makes wines in multiple regions. The aim of the cellar door is to make wine education more accessible for all levels, from wine novice to expert," explains Mark Simpson who co-founded Melbourne-based studio DesignOffice with Damien Mulvihill.
The new venue is located on a site with a long history in the booze business. Formerly the Carlton & United Brewery, and Kent Brewery or Tooth's Brewery prior to that, the building complex closed in 2005 and has since undergone some serious adaptive reuse with the likes of the Old Clare Hotel and now Handpicked Cellar Door.
To accommodate a retail space, tasting bar, wine lounge and experiential wine room, DesignOffice took a flexible approach to ensure the successful coexistence of the various components. "We wanted to create a space that allowed customers to craft their own experience and explore the range in way that was not prescriptive. The fluidity in circulation and range of seating options allow customers to explore at their own pace," Simpson says.
Detailed and rhythmic timber joinery runs the length of the room and serves to define the functional spaces, as well as concealing the mechanical services. The retail space at one end of the space has freestanding modular floor units for storage and display as well as facilitating the integration of digital content for visitors' wine experience to continue online. Custom tasting tables accommodate wine tasting by day and bar seating by night, and the experiential room adjacent has stainless steel wine tanks that contain unfinished wine samples for customers to delve deeper into the winemaking process.
DesignOffice worked with the fabric of the original brick building to create a space that Simpson describes as "warm, inviting, convivial and welcoming." The brick walls and high ceilings have been retained for volume, character and texture, and timber linings have been extruded from the walls and backlit to add depth and warmth. The original "No Smoking" signs painted on the walls are left exposed to reveal layers of the past and a palette of natural, raw and tactile materials emphasise the cellar vibe. "The existing timber floor, concrete columns and brick walls have been married with solid oak, granite, cement render, linoleum and galvanised steel to create a rich and tangible palette," Simpson explains.
Like the process of distillation, DesignOffice has extracted the essence of Handpicked Wines and translated it into a cellar door that takes customers on a journey of wine and space.

Belgian director wows critics
Venice (Reuters): Young Belgian director Joachim Lafosse wowed critics at the Venice Film Festival with Private Property, a dark family story centred on a woman and her 20-something twin sons. Isabelle Huppert, one of France's most talented performers who won a career award in Venice last year, vividly portrays a middle-aged divorcee planning to sell the family home to set up a guest-house and make a fresh start with her life. But Jeremie and Yannick Renier, who are brothers in real life but not twins, almost steal the show with their interpretation of the two sons who, opposed to the house sale, turn against their mother and eventually against each other.
Private Property -- Nue Propriete in French -- is the third film for Lafosse who, at 31, is the youngest director competing for the top prize in Venice this year. ''This is the story of a family collapsing,'' Lafosse, who himself has a twin brother, told a news conference yesterday. ''It was very important to have true brothers playing in the film because they bring a real credibility to it. You cannot make up that kind of relationship,'' he said after the film was well received at a press screening. The Renier brothers, working on the same set for the first time, said they had found the experience strange and at the same time natural.
''When Joachim got in touch with us, we were split between the desire to work together and the fear of being involved in the same project,'' Yannick Renier told reporters. ''But had we not been brothers, we would have needed to spend years together to be able to create the complicity between the two characters that you see in the film,'' he said. Yannick, 31, is mainly a theatre actor, while the younger Jeremie is best known for his interpretation of the lead character in ''L'Enfant'' (The Child), a film by another pair of Belgian brothers -- Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne. ''L'Enfant'' won the top prize in Cannes last year. Huppert, busy with a new theatre role, did not show up on the Lido. Lafosse said the film needed a strong-willed and solid actress like her to balance the aggressive and spoiled twins.
''This is a family where nobody has ever set any boundaries, where there are no limits. The twins are in their 20s, but they behave like teenagers, they refuse to grow up and assume their responsibilities,'' Lafosse said. ''When I was test-screening for the lead female role, I asked Jeremie and Yannick to be particularly cruel. All the actresses who came went away distressed. Only Isabelle could face up to these guys,'' he said.

Physical Oceanography

Physical Oceanography
Over the last ?ve decades Physical Oceanography developed explosively from a state with only a few observations and theories to a mature science with global ?eld p- grams,massivecomputerpower,andacomplextheoreticalframework. Thescientists wholedthisdevelopmentarealreadyorwillsoonberetired. Thiscollectionofessays documentssomeofthebreakthroughsandalsotriestocapturethespiritofexploration and excitement that accompanied these developments. Theoriginalmotivationforthepresentbookcamefromourdesiretounderstand the current social and scienti?c framework in which we work as physical ocean- raphers. Brief re?ection makes it obvious that this framework must have historical roots. However, discussions about these roots with senior scientists only made the picture more complex and confusing. We came to the conclusion that there is no simple story that explains the current state of affairs. The natural solution was to let seniorscientiststellhowtheyperceivedthedevelopmentsinthe?eld,eachfromtheir own unique point of view. Thus, by surrendering editorial objectivity we arrived at a broader, more objective view. The approach is comparable to data acquisition: it is known that there are no perfect observations, so one makes many. The goal then is to reduce biases by sampling as often as possible. However, to keep the book at a manageable size and still give the individual authors space enough to cover several decades, we were limited to 10 to 20 authors whose contributions should not exceed 20 pages. Thus, the book is by no means a complete history of physical oceanography; many important scientists and subdisciplines of the ?eld are not accounted for.
Unique in its combination of the three major subdisciplines in physical oceanography: observation, theory and modellingUnique historical overview of the development of physical oceanography by truly leading people in the field

Great offers available on genuine Quaife ATBs but be aware of cheap imitations...
Quaife ATB Differentials - Quaife has been forced to expand its manufacturing capacity to cope with the increase in demand for their quality products, in particular their ATB differentials. With Ford Motor Company choosing Quaife to supply their LSD for all 3 generations of the Focus RS, as well as approving Quaife's Fiesta and Focus ST products as aftermarket parts, this is the perfect endorsement of the pedigree and quality of Quaife's products. The new 2018 Fiesta ST will also be offered with a Quaife ATB as a factory option.
As a result of the latest investments to produce over 4000 ATBs for the Mk3 Focus RS Edition, Quaife has selected a few of its highest selling Ford aftermarket units to be made at its OEM rate of 100 per day. Due to our Ford speciality, purchasing capacity and long standing relationship with Quaife, Burton Power have been selected as an exclusive partner to market these Ford units. These cost savings are being passed on to our customers, who will be able to experience these quality, world-renowned products at an even more tempting price point.
This opportunity has come at a perfect time with selected ATBs sadly now at the hands of Chinese copiers at cheap prices. Whilst they may look similar, you cannot see the difference in tolerances and material specifications which are tightly controlled in Quaife's UK based production sites. Why take a chance on a cheap copy when you can enjoy the real thing for only a fraction more?

If you want an MRU list in your vim window for Windows/Linux (which is very useful, trust me!) then simply follow the instructions you'll find here to install a really useful Vim plug-in:
mru.vim : Plugin to manage Most Recently Used (MRU) files
This works very well with with the vims I've tried it on so far, which are gvim and cygwin vim on Windows, console-based vim and gvim on Linux, as well as console vim and MacVim on the Mac.
Even though an MRU system of sorts is already built-in to MacVim, I still recommend using this vim plug-in as it also works very well with MacVim.

I'll admit to being a little nervous before this game. The Chicago Bears are not a good team this year, but the injuries to the Packers just kept adding up and I began to wonder if the Packers would even have enough difference makers to beat this Bears team. In addition to that, this was a short week and the Packers were coming off a rough loss to the Cowboys.
Going into halftime with a 6-3 lead wasn't exactly encouraging, either. The offense had plenty of opportunities in the red zone, but they weren't able to punch it into the end zone. When the Bears scored a defensive touchdown off a strip-sack of Aaron Rodgers early in the 3rd quarter for a 10-6 lead, the group I was with all looked at each other and said, "Here's how the Bears win."
But the offense took off. They established a rhythm of their short-passing attack and were able to go up-and-down the field with relative ease. Davante Adams had the best game of his career and Ty Montgomery showed what he's capable of.
There are still issues and questions with this team, but they went a long way towards answering some of those in this game. We have a week and a half to celebrate this win. The sun is a little brighter today.
The Packers got a divisional win and the temperature is dropping. Grab some scary movies and your favorite warm blanket to hide under. Spooky season is well and truly here. This really is the best time of year.
Let's get to the film.
I'm going to do something a bit different this week. Instead of going with The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, I wanted to show a couple random plays I liked, then look at a handful of plays that highlight two of the schemes the Packers used quite a bit in their passing game this week.
One of the worries in going up against this Bears was how the depleted secondary was going to deal with Alshon Jeffrey [17]. On this play, he lines up at the top of the screen, with Ladarius Gunter [36] lined up over top of him. There's nothing special here: Gunter is able to stay on his hip, stay with Jeffrey on the cut and challenge the throw. Jeffrey isn't a burner, but he's a tall guy with good hands. As good as he is, Gunter was a really good match-up for Green Bay. Like Jeffery, Gunter isn't a burner, but he's a big guy with long arms. He has always kind of reminded me of Davon House.
For the game, Jeffrey finished with a modest 3 catches (on 11 targets) for 33 yards. The match-up against Julio Jones next week isn't quite so favorable, but Gunter more than held his own against Jeffrey.
This is a wide receiver screen to Deonte Thompson [14] at the bottom of the screen. It is read perfectly on that side by Demetri Goodson [39]. By recognizing the play immediately, Goodson was able to slip underneath the block of Cameron Meredith [81]. Goodson's pursuit means Thompson can't cut up the field, so he has to cut back towards the line. Letroy Guion [98] misses on his tackle attempt, but the rest of the swarming bodies inside do not. Blake Martinez [50] makes the first hit, which slows Thompson down enough for the reinforcements to arrive. Goodson – still pursuing the play – is able to get in on the tackle. This was a tremendous play by Goodson, but the entire defense did a great job here.
This play takes place pretty early in the 1st quarter. The Packers decide to go for it on 4th and 4 at the Bears 29 yard line. I assume this was a case of feeling good about the way the offense was looking and wanting to keep it rolling. Whatever the reason was, I love that they went for it and I loved seeing this pass.
Jordy Nelson [87] is lined up in the slot to the left of the line. His route is pretty simple: run upfield and turn around. Aaron Rodgers [12] sees the defender is playing off Nelson, and he also sees that the defender is backpedaling. The Bears are bringing heat, and a free rusher is coming off the edge. Rodgers knows Nelson's route and he also knows he needs to get the ball out quickly, which is exactly what he does. The ball is out of Rodgers' hand before Nelson is out of his break. The defender doesn't stand a chance. It's a 9 yard gain on 4th and 4.
Nelson gets out of his break well and Rodgers gets the ball out of his hand quickly. This is something that has been missing quite a bit from the offense, and it's exactly what the West Coast Offense is based around.
Here is Ty Montgomery's [88] stellar catch on 3rd down. Montgomery sells down the downfield route just enough to make his defender hesitate, and that slight bit of hesitation is what creates space. But look at the other routes in this play.
Davante Adams [17] is the outside receiver. He's running a post, but his real job is to clear out space for Montgomery, which is exactly what he does. If Adams is slow getting downfield, this play doesn't work. His defender would have the opportunity to help with Montgomery. But Adams gets his man downfield to clear out room for Montgomery.
Justin Perillo [80] is is the slot to the left. He runs a curl to the middle, and he runs it really well. If Montgomery wasn't open on this play, Perillo would have been.
The Packers are running symmetrical outside routes (out/post combo) on the bottom with Randall Cobb [18] and Jordy Nelson [87].
There could be many reasons for Aaron Rodgers [12] throwing to Montgomery instead of Cobb on this play, but it looks that the defender over Montgomery is shading slightly to Montgomery's inside shoulder, while Cobb's defender is shading the outside shoulder. Since this is an out route with a quick throw, this slight variance can make a huge difference. Seeing the defender on an inside shoulder for an out means he'd have to go across the body to make a play on the ball, while a defender playing the outside shoulder would have a clearer path. Rodgers may have seen the defender on the inside shoulder of Montgomery pre-snap and determined that was where the throw would be going.
I have talked about Davante Adams [17] poor route-running in the past, so I felt it only fair to point out when he has a great one. He starts this play as the outside receiver to the top of the screen. He looks like he's running a post and his man plays that route. After about 3 steps into the post route, he sticks his foot in the ground and cuts back to the sideline, completely spinning his man around in the process. Aaron Rodgers [12] nearly misses the throw, but Adams is able to reach up, grab it and pick up a couple yards after the catch. This was a great route by Adams.
For the record, I don't think Adams is a poor route runner, but I do think he's an inconsistent one. Although "inconsistent" has basically summed up his entire career so far.
Now let's move on to the next section. Let's call it Dual Outs, because that is the type of pattern we're going to be looking at.
The Packers have used this kind of play for a while now, and we certainly saw a healthy dose of it on Thursday. Of course, when Rodgers throws 50+ times in a game, you're likely to see all the best tricks an offense has. This specific throw went to Randall Cobb [18], starting in the slot to the right of the line. Justin Perillo [80] is standing up just off the right side of the line. He and Cobb are running matching out routes 5 yards down the field. Davante Adams [17] is on the outside running a go route.
They are both sharp out of the cut. With Adams dragging his man deep, there is free space to put the ball to Cobb.
You can see the beauty in this play design, though. If Cobb isn't open, Perillo will have space, since Cobb has drug his man to the outside. It's a quick-hitting pass play that calls for sharp cuts. It's not something the Packers have been known for this season, but this is an effective way to establish rhythm in the passing game when it's working.
This is the type of play that can have success against man or zone defense, provided it is run well.
If you look to the left side of the line, you'll see Jordy Nelson [87] running an out from the slot while Ty Montgomery [88] runs a go route to clear out space.
It's also the type of play you can run a simple variation on and have great success with. If defenses have seen this exact play on tape dozens of times and key in on it, instead of camping in the middle of the field, maybe that linebacker flies over to cut off the route. The Packers can set up a receiver read-option on the play: if the inside man crashes that route, cut back to the middle. With out routes going on either side, the middle is wide open.
Or if the outside cornerback drops down into a robber zone, passing off the receiver to the safety. Suddenly there's a hole between the cornerback and the safety for a pass to fit in.
That's what I love. The Packers did a lot of this type of play, but the small variations off of this play are really exciting.
Here is the same thing to the left side of the line, with Richard Rodgers [82] and Randall Cobb [18] running the routes. Rodgers is lined up just off the left side of the line. His defender is giving him a big cushion and is playing inside technique. Aaron Rodgers [12] sees the off coverage pre-snap and the inside coverage immediately after the snap. It's an easy read, so Aaron Rodgers is able to get the ball out as soon as Richard Rodgers comes out of his break. If the ball comes out a little earlier, Richard Rodgers would have a chance to get some more yards after the catch, but let's be honest here. It's Richard Rodgers. He was not going to get more yards after the catch.
Once again, the outside is cleared out by Jordy Nelson [87] running a go route, but the coverage on Cobb is tight out of the break. It would have had to be a perfect throw to Cobb, so Aaron Rodgers chose the easy throw to Richard Rodgers.
Something else this route combo does is it puts two receivers in the same line of sight for Aaron Rodgers. He can read the coverage on both of them without having to move his head. It's a quick and easy way to read a couple of potential open receivers.
There's something else to notice on this play. We have dual outs on the left side of the line, while the right side of the line is setting up a screen for Ty Montgomery [88]. The action to the left drags defenders to that side of the field. If Cobb, Rodgers or Nelson couldn't get open, Aaron Rodgers is able to turn to his right and flip a screen pass to Montgomery, which is set up really well.
I've seen the Packers do this before and it always makes me happy. They're essentially running one play on the left and another on the right. It's extremely hard to defend and I love it dearly.
Here we see dual outs to the right side of the line with Richard Rodgers [82] and Randall Cobb [18], with Jordy Nelson [87] running a go route over the top. Is this all beginning to seem familiar?
On the left side we have Trevor Davis [11] running a slant, while Ty Montgomery [88] – who has motioned to the left pre-snap – is simply running to the flat underneath. Since no defenders followed Montgomery across the formation, it signaled that the Bears were in zone. Given the defensive alignment on the left, Aaron Rodgers [12] knows that the outside defender will drop back to take away Davis' initial move, opening up room for Montgomery to catch and run before the deep defender can drop down to take away that throw. It's worth mentioning that the defender over Montgomery is likely thinking an out pattern, so he's staying a bit downfield to try to take away that route. The threat of the out helps to open up this underneath route for Montgomery.
Finally, we have a slight variation of the dual out. Instead of running them on the same side, we have Randall Cobb [18] running an out on the left while Jordy Nelson [87] loops underneath Richard Rodgers [82] on the right to run an in route, mirroring Cobb's out pattern.
What we also have here is Cobb running a variation of the straight out route, creating room to catch the ball in the process. He fires off the line and runs an out, which is well covered. He then starts to cut upfield, leading the defender to think he's running deep. Once the defender commits to a deep cut, Cobb cuts right back to the outside. He's able to catch the ball without the defender contesting it.
A lot has been said this year about the Packers' use of "secondary routes." Basically, the Packers have their initial routes, then a secondary route they run once the play breaks down. It's essentially a planned scramble drill. So instead of just running to open space and waving your hand, the receivers know where they're going once the play starts to break down, and so does Rodgers. On a lot of these secondary routes, Cobb's role seems to be to breaking deep towards the sideline. I'm sure the defender has seen that and had it in mind when Cobb started upfield on his secondary route. It's a nice little tweak to a route the Packers run quite often.
That's one of the things I find so fascinating about offenses. They'll run the same play dozens of times; perhaps hundreds. If that starts being keyed in on, one or two tiny adjustments could open everything up. You're not changing the overall play, you're just slightly modifying one aspect of it.
To close out, we're going to look at a few rub plays the Packers used this game in an attempt to get their receivers open. I call this section The Rub, because I am not creative.
This is an interesting play in that the Packers ran a similar look on both sides, with a slight variation. On the right side of the line. Justin Perillo [80] is lined up in the slot, while Jordy Nelson [87] is on the outside. At the snap, Nelson runs a slant directly at his man while Perillo takes a couple steps upfield before wheeling to the outside, underneath Nelson's route. The combination of these routes creates a natural pick for Perillo and it works like a charm. Perillo's man is caught on the wrong side of Nelson's route, giving Perillo room to run his route and get some yards after the catch. One can argue whether or not the slow-footed Perillo would have been able to get into the end zone had the ball gone in his direction, but the route combination itself worked exactly as it was designed to work.
Now turn your attention to the left side of the line, where it appears as though Randall Cobb [18] and Davante Adams [17] are running the same route combination, with a twist. Adams begins running a slant from the outside while Cobb takes a couple steps upfield before taking a cut inside. But this is not a real rub route. It is a route designed to look like a rub to fool the defenders. The idea is to make the defenders commit to the rub, then run the actual routes while the defenders are scrambling.
That's the side Aaron Rodgers [12] was looking, but the defenders played it well and there was no open receiver.
Here we have the exact same thing to the right side of the line, this time featuring Jeff Janis [83] in the slot and Jordy Nelson [87] on the outside. Aaron Rodgers [12] throws the ball quickly to that side, but a couple things go wrong here. If you rewatch the previous gif, you'll notice how far Nelson was able to take his man into the middle. On this play, he's not running as deep. Instead of a slant, he's running a slant-curl, and it doesn't take him close enough to Janis' defender.
Janis also could have run his route closer to Nelson. By cutting a little more underneath Nelson than he has to, it leaves room for the defender to follow him under the pick. The goal is to force the defender to go over the pick, creating room underneath to catch the ball and get upfield. Since Nelson's defender is able to cut Janis off before he gets to the end zone, he likely wouldn't have gotten into the end zone even if he ran the route closer to Nelson, but he didn't do himself any favors by allowing his defender to run under the pick.
We'll finish this section off with Davante Adams' [17] second touchdown catch of the day. This play gave the Packers a 20-10 lead in the 4th quarter, so it was pretty big. It was also a rub that worked, even if not exactly the way the Packers drew it up.
I've already talked about two of these plays, so you all can probably recite the routes by this point, but let's go through it. We're looking to the left side of the line, where Adams lines up on the outside and Ty Montgomery [88] lines up in the slot. Adams runs a slant while Montgomery runs to the flat underneath the slant. There is miscommunication between the defenders on that side. The inside defender sees the rub and is able to run under the pick. The outside defender drops back in zone, leaving Adams uncovered. Instead of tying up his defender, Adams finds himself running free. Aaron Rodgers [12] throws a bit behind Adams, but Adams is able to reach back and make a great catch.
The goal of these types of plays is to create a bit of chaos for the defense. Whether that takes the shape of knocking defenders off their assignments or miscommunication doesn't matter. If a receiver gets open quickly, the design has done exactly what it was meant to do. There has been a lot of hand-wringing among Packers fans, myself included, about how the Packers run a lot of long-developing isolation routes. While they still run their fair share of isolation routes, I've noticed more of these types of plays over the past few weeks, and it brings a smile to my face. I've also noticed a bit more pre-snap motion. There are reasons to believe the Packers are getting back on track offensively, and it's due to play calls like this becoming a bit more regular.
Other Thoughts:
– Aaron Rodgers ended with a good final line: 39/56 (69.6%), 326 yards (5.82 yards per attempt) and 3 touchdowns, for a QB Rating of 102.2. Of those 17 incomplete passes, 7 were thrown away and 3 were dropped. That puts his accuracy of aimed passes at 85.7%. Not too shabby.
– Rodgers' 39 completions set a Packers record for most completions in one game. The record was previously held by Brett Favre and set in Chicago in 1993. In that game, Favre was 36/54 (66.7%), 402 yards (7.44 yards per attempt), 2 touchdowns and 3 interceptions, for a QB rating of 77.9.
– Going back to 1960, Warren Moon was the only other quarterback to attempt at least 56 passes, complete at least 69% of them and win the game. Moon didn't throw a single touchdown pass in that game.
– I dislike stats that throw that many qualifiers on them. You can make pretty much any accomplishment sound special as long as you put enough qualifiers on it. Still, that didn't stop me from using Pro Football Reference's Play Finder and passing along this useless information to you, did it? You're welcome.
– The Packers attempted 62 passes and only 22 runs. Of those 22 runs, only 7 went to running backs, the rest going to Randall Cobb (5 rushing attempts) and Ty Montgomery (9 rushing attempts). Speaking of Ty Montgomery…
– In weeks 1-5, Ty Montgomery saw a total of 17 snaps, accounting for less than 8% of the total offensive snaps. In that time he saw no balls thrown in his direction and had 2 rushing attempts for a total of 0 yards. Over the past two weeks, Montgomery has seen 95 snaps (accounting for over 60% of offensive snaps) and has caught 20 passes (on 25 attempts, an 80% catch rate) for 164 yards (6.56 yards per target). He has also run the ball 12 times for 66 yards (5.5 yards per attempt). I love that he's on the field and doing this. This is what I had hoped he would do this year. So now for the question a lot of us have been asking all season: what took so long?
– I mentioned grabbing some scary movies, so I'll finish this article by throwing a couple recommendations your way. (All the links are for reviews I've written on the movie in question.)
Halloween – The original. Sure, it's a bit tame by today's blood-soaked standards, but this movie still holds up. There is a great tension that runs throughout, the style is incredible (I love those long, lingering camera shots) and it has one of the best soundtracks of all time. If you feel like rolling with a double-feature, Halloween II is also terrific.
It Follows – In many ways, a spiritual successor to Halloween. It has a lot of the same look and feel, but with a twist on the well-worn slasher genre that makes it feel new and fresh. (If you're interested, I wrote a bit about how to survive The It. There are spoilers in that post, so don't read it until you've seen the movie.)
Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon – A horror comedy. The first hour is a pitch-perfect deconstruction of the slasher genre, as told through a documentary team following around Leslie Vernon, a killer in the mold of Jason Voorhees. If you're a fan of the slasher genre, it's a must-see. Even if you're not, it's still an extremely funny movie with its fair share of blood and killing.
Severance – This is basically a British office comedy set in the woods with a slasher on the loose.
Trick R Treat – A horror anthology of sorts, following a handful of different stories, all taking place in the same town on Halloween night. It's mean and nasty and hilarious and dark and I watch it every year.
The Final Girls – A new favorite, following a group of modern day college students who find themselves stuck in an 80s slasher. It's hilarious, but it also has a really strong heart in the middle, thanks to the two female leads, playing a daughter and (sorta) mother.
The Orphanage – A creepy, heartbreaking, atmospheric ghost story. It's not out-and-out scary, but it has a creepy vibe that runs throughout.
The Witch – Let's close with a recent movie. Like The Orphanage, it's not out-and-out scary, but it's supremely unsettling. It's a bit slow moving, so be prepared for that. I think this movie is best served by turning off all the lights and giving it your undivided attention. You'll be glad you did. While you're watching, keep in mind that a lot of the dialogue was pulled directly from journals written during that time period.
I could talk horror all day, so if you want more recommendations (or just want to chat), hit me over via email or Twitter. When I won't stop talking your ear off about a horror film I loved you may wish you had never engaged me, but that's on you.
Albums listened to: Marissa Nadler – Bury Your Name; Brand New – The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me; D'Angelo – Black Messiah; Elvis Perkins – Doomsday EP; American Football – American Football; Black Atlass – Haunted Paradise; Leonard Cohen – You Want It Darker; The Yearning – Evening Souvenirs; Phantogram – Three

Patatas Bravas and Fruity Sangria
Happy Mother's Day everyone!!
The best patatas bravas that I have ever tasted was at Ceviche (Orlando). I miss that restaurant, I miss Orlando!
We would order a pitcher of Sangria and a huge variety of tapas with non-stop inflow of bread (man, I always ate so much bread there!). On weekends they had Flamenco dancing…it is one of my favorite restaurants for sure.
If you are planning a trip to Disney this summer, I highly recommend going to Ceviche— its located on Church Street near Orlando downtown.
There is such a dearth of international cuisine in Pondicherry (except for French)…it almost feels like all these people (residents of Pondy, including me) are missing out on such amazing food from around the globe!
All this deprivation forces me to go into my kitchen and make all the food that I miss, even though a kitchen without an air-conditioner or no ventilation in a tropical climate like ours, is like an oven/sauna/inferno. My kitchen is nowhere close to being comfortable!
I still cook, because I love it!
A while back I made patatas bravas & sangria for a party and there were these friends of ours who loved the sangria so much that they kept asking for the recipe…well, the interesting part in this whole story is that they are from Spain!! I was so excited, its like me (someone from India) asking an American to share their recipe for– I don't know… Dal Makhani ?!?! That's pretty awesome, don't you think?!
So here it is, my version of Sangria 🙂
My sangria is a little on the sweeter side because I use a lot of citrus in it and I also add more sugar to the wine.
It is important to let the wine infuse with orange juice for up-to 8 hours or so, overnight is also good, and mix in the apples and orange slices somewhere around mid way.
Serving around 4 people
cooking time 1 hour
Things you will need:
For Patatas Bravas
4 big potatoes, peeled and diced
1 medium size onion, chopped
4 medium tomatoes, peeled
4 cloves garlic, roughly sliced
1 tbs paprika
1 tbs cumin powder
chipotle in adobo, as per taste
1/2 tbs sugar
2 cups water
oil for frying and some more for the sauce
1 tbs eggless mayonese (see below)
Half boil the potatoes and keep aside. Make the sauce first. In a deep pan stir fry onions in some oil, add in some salt and continue to cook till they turn transparent. Add garlic and cook for another minute. Add cumin and paprika, stir to mix and add tomatoes. Add water and sugar, stir. Add chipotle in adobo. Mix well and cook it covered on low till almost all the liquid is evaporated…stirring occasionally. Turn the heat off, let cool and puree in a blender. Add mayonnaise and and mix again.
Deep fry the potatoes and season with salt and pepper as soon as you take them out of the oil. Drizzle desirable amount of sauce on the potatoes and serve.
Eggless Mayonnaise
5 tbs cream
5 tbs olive oil
1 tsp dijon mustard
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tsp sugar
Put all the ingredients in a blender and mix till it gets thick. Taste and adjust salt.
For Sangria
1/2 bottle good red wine
1/4 cup sugar
200 ml packaged orange juice
fresh juice of 2 oranges
juice of 1 lime
juice of 1 lemon
1 orange, sliced in rings
100 ml sprite
1 apple, diced (leave the skin on)
lemon and lime wedges
In a pitcher mix wine, sugar and orange juice (both packaged and fresh), lime and lemon juice. Stir till the sugar is dissolved. Refrigerate for 8 hours. After 4 hours add apples and orange slices, put it back in the refrigerator. Add sprite and some lemon and lime wedges before serving. Serve chilled.
Tip: Make some sangria ice cubes and put in the glass while serving, that way the sangria will stay cold for a longer time and will not water down.

I LOVE CANAKKALE! I really did not expect it to be so vibrant, full of life, and so relaxing. I had done quite a bit of research about all the places we were visiting on our 12-day long trip - even TROY but i didn't even glance at anything about Canakkale.
I think it was a blessing in disguise anyway coz if i did, the surprise would have been totally ruined.
Canakkale is the regional capital on the southern shore of the Dardanelles Stait close to the Troy ruins and the Gallipoli WW1 sites.
Both are a major draw for both international and Turkish tourists resulting in a city with a big supply of accommodation and restaurants. It has a population of 100 thousand permanent residents and 30 thousand university students during term. The mild coastal climate and laid back town facilities have attracted more than the usual share of wealthier Turkish retirees. One of the nicest things about the town is the waterfront promenade both sides of the ferry arrival point - with a big array of restaurants and bars to spend some relaxed time watching the passing paraded of ships, yachts and ferries.

US: The Queen's Treasures debuts Little House on The Prairie doll
The Queen's Treasures has debuted its first official Little House on The Prairie doll.
Forming part of a doll line spotlighting 'women who changed the world', the 18-inch doll resembles Little House on The Prairie's Laura Ingalls.
"My favorite author as a child was Laura Ingalls Wilder", said Joann Cartiglia, founder and president of The Queen's Treasures.
"Laura Ingalls-Wilder lived a life that most children could never imagine and successfully wrote a series of books during early part of the 1900's that are still popular today. That is an amazing accomplishment."
Launching in July with a retail price of $99, the doll boasts painted features, vinyl shoulders with a soft body and a host of accessories.
Other dolls in the firm's 'women who changed the world' line include a Salvation Army Doughnut Girl and a range of doll clothes, furniture and accessories inspired by the work of Dr. Jane Goodall.
"We want children to be inspired by these amazing women and create dreams of changing the world, themselves." added Cartiglia.
"We can do anything we set our minds to. As a person who grew up in a blue-collar family and having no formal" education, I can tell you that you can make anything happen - if you want to. I want little girls to think about things other than phones, computers and all the electronic trappings of todays' society: and encourage them to use 'human' power to change the world for the better."
