Do watch the whole video as at the end I use a new technique that gives the soup a rich and thick flavor. Barley and lentil soup is a tasty and delicious dish that you can make with very little effort. You can avoid red pepper, if you want to tone it down. Will do wonders for clearing your sinuses. Enjoy this dish either as a appetizer or a full meal with some rolls.
Paaya Soup is a exotic dish that will be loved by Andrew Zimmerman. Not a everyday dish but still something to try once in a while. This is a easy way of making this dish. Again it is not the tradiional way, but my way of making this dish.

2013 Family Resolution Video!
Here is a video I put together with all of our resolutions. It's a total of 4 minutes and in my humble opinion, totally worth it. You can see what the kids say, too.

Moving is horrible. For any of you that have moved lately, you know what I'm talking about. To me, moving is an abomination. It took me 6 weeks to find my son's shoes and I know there are still things hidden in a box somewhere. However, the process of moving from one's house is much less daunting than moving a whole system.
How do we move forward in education?
- For starters, we have to acknowledge the fact that there is no "moving company" to hire in education. You have to pack the boxes and do the heavy lifting yourself.
- In order for change to happen, we need to confront the fact that the "educational house" we built no longer meets the needs of our students.
- It will take everyone in the neighborhood to help with the move. This must be a community effort. Author Jamie Vollmer has a book titled Schools Cannot Do It Alone. I highly recommend his book, especially for those that have been out of school for awhile.
- Change begins with the students. I have a student principal advisory group that meets with me monthly to give feedback on school policy and general happenings in our school. Thanks kids, I listen! And remember, I work for you!
- No longer can learning be confined to the four walls of our schoolhouse. Lets extend opportunities in the workplace, provide kids with college credit and/or certifications in a job related field prior to graduation.
- We need to change grading practices to improve student learning. Schools need to develop better assessments that provide feedback to both the teacher and student.
Will that get us to where we want to go? What else would you add?

Sen. Bill Rabon wants the state to stop letting Ocracoke Island residents go to the front of the line for free at the busy ferry dock – and to start collecting $150 a year from anybody willing to pay for priority boarding.
The Senate Transportation Committee on Wednesday endorsed Rabon's proposal to sell a pass that would provide priority boarding on all state ferries. Just as some airline passengers pay extra to board their flights first, many tourists and other travelers would pay for assurance that they won't wait hours for a place on the next boat, he said.
"People down east tell me they're worried about stepping on the tourists' toes," said Rabon, a Republican from Southport. "Right now the tourists have sore toes, because only the locals can jump in front of the line. Locals already have priority."
The state Department of Transportation gives priority passes free of charge for two kinds of regular riders on the state's busy Hatteras-Ocracoke ferry: Ocracoke residents and commercial vendors that make at least two trips a week to Ocracoke. At the height of summer, tourists sometimes wait in line for hours at the dock – while several ferry boats fill up with cars and depart – until it's their turn to board.

Rabon's bill would forbid DOT to give free passes to let any passengers go to the head of the line. It would authorize $150-per-year passes for "individual passengers" – although at the committee meeting he said one pass would cover all the riders in a vehicle.
Ocracokers and their House allies have fought off past efforts by Rabon and other Senate Republicans to start collecting tolls on the Hatteras ferry. Island residents say they need free passage and free priority passes for their routine shopping and medical trips to the Dare County Outer Banks.
"Sometimes there's 400 cars lined up to go across there," John Fletcher of Ocracoke, a Hyde County commissioner, said by phone after the meeting. Without a priority pass, he said, "you'd have to wait sometimes for four or five boats to go across."
Fletcher said it would be unfair to make island residents pay $150.
"A lot of the people who live on the island are not well off by any stretch of the imagination," he said.
The priority pass proposal – which goes next to the Senate Finance Committee – won unanimous support from the Transportation Committee.
"I like the concept, but I think you're under-charging for it," Sen. Ralph Hise Jr., a Republican from Spruce Pine, told Rabon.
Rabon said the proposal was inspired by complaints from a wealthy Brunswick County resident who owns two houses on Ocracoke and doesn't like to wait for the ferry.
"He said ... 'It burns me up to go down there and let some folks jump in line ahead of me and get on that boat, and for me to have to wait an hour and a half,'" Rabon said. "'I'm more than willing to pay – and anybody that doesn't want to pay, get in line behind me.'"

Rental car taxes would fund ports and airports
The Senate Transportation Committee endorsed a proposal Wednesday to divert about $67 million a year in state car rental taxes to the transportation budget – where most of it would be reserved for capital improvements at seaports and airports.
The state's General Fund, which covers non-transportation needs, now collects the 8 percent tax on short-term car rentals.
"This bill would move those fees into the transportation budget, where it should have been all along," said Sen. Bill Rabon, a Republican from Southport who sponsored the bill.
Rabon's bill would send $35 million of the money to the State Ports Authority and $21 million to the Department of Transportation Aviation Division each year. The Wilmington and Morehead City ports rely on fees from shippers but do not get regular funding from the state.
"North Carolina is the only state on the East Coast that does not have a revenue stream for our ports," Rabon said.
This year, the Ports Authority has requested a one-time state grant of $75 million for improvements at the Wilmington port.

Oscar's sale to China will bring around €600,000 to Internacional, and €1.5 million for São Paulo
One of the former clubs of Brazilian attacking midfielder Oscar, Internacional are entitled to around 0.70% of the £52 million transfer fee that Chelsea will receive from Shanghai SIPG.
Even though they're not involved in any aspect of the negotiation, Internacional would pocket some money from the transfer of Oscar from Chelsea to Shanghai SIPG, China, in a transfer involving figures of 52 million, according to British newspaper Independent. One of the training clubs of the 25-year-old, Inter benefits from FIFA's solidarity mechanism and would receive approximately R$ 2 million [around €600,000]. The calculation is based on the time the player stayed in the club. Oscar joined Internacional in June 2010 to be part of the U23 side. With prominence, he was included in the list of players for the FIFA Club World Cup that year, by Celso Roth. At Inter, the youngster was involved in a legal battle, due to his controversial exit from São Paulo, which resulted in Inter paying R$ 15 million to the club. The biggest beneficiary from the transfer will be São Paulo. Oscar arrived at Tricolor at the age of 13 and only left the club at 19. Thus, the Morumbi side are entitled to 2.35% of the transaction, which correspond to about R$ 5 million.

PC, UPC and APC are the specifications of the ferrule of fiber optical connector, namely the fiber optical channel. This parameter refers to the different polishing faces, in another word, the shape that butt-join in the fiber adapter. For example, once FC connector adopts APC contacting face, it can be tagged FC/APC.
PC is short for Physical Contact, means it is the physical contact with the fiber transmission media. It is vertical plane (micro-spherical) contact. Due to the higher loss, it has been basically eliminated in some areas.
UPC is Ultra Physical Contact. It is the same contact surface and with higher performance. As the alternative of PC, it is widely used in the digital domain.
APC is the Angled Physical Contact. That is the end of face of an 8-degree tilt of the micro spherical shape. This shape reduced the attenuation of light caused by contact surface.
When the optical signal is coupled through the surface of medium, the reflected light will return along the fiber path once the contact surface is vertical plane. The non-uniform fiber index will cause part of the fiber return back to contact surface again. Although the power is very small, it cannot be eliminated completely. It is tantamount to superpose a delayed weak signal on the original signal. However by 8-degree angle of APC, the reflected light will not return along the fiber patch, thus decrease greatly the reflection loss. APC is usually applied for high quality single mode fiber ports.

Forty people, including a
10-year-old, were injured when a bull leapt over barriers at a Spanish bullring
and ran amok among spectators.
The child was reported to be in
intensive care with abdominal injuries at a Pamplona hospital and three people
were in the emergency ward after being trampled when the bull escaped the ring
in Tafalla, northern Spain.
Video footage showed the bull
landing in the stands among hundreds of spectators after jumping high enough to
clear both the 5 feet barriers around the ring and a narrow alley where the
bullfighters and officials stand.
Some spectators tried to keep the
bull still by holding it by its tail, while others hurled capes and missiles,
causing it to charge. The bull was eventually cornered and a rope tied around
its neck.
The incident happened during an
event in which people try to provoke the bull to charge them.
The bull had already jumped twice
into the alley surrounding the ring, police said. After damaging a horn, it was
about to be returned to the corral when it escaped.
The accident comes amid an intense
debate in Spain about bullfighting, which was banned by the north-eastern
region of Catalonia last month.
About a dozen people have died at
bull festivals in the past two years. The latest victim was gored to death
earlier this month during a bull-dodging event in Godella, eastern Spain.

Encountering life changing issues at a young age, Pascagoul, MS born Sydney Lin Burks Wash (April 20, 1988), Sydney B, always knew that she wanted to leave her imprint on the world regardless that her hearing was fading away as a child. After multiple surgeries at the age of 6, she began the road to recovery. Now she functions as a recording artist while missing 30% of her hearing. After graduating from Camp Shelby's YCP program in December of 2005, she was asked to sing on a friend's song. Recording, singing, and performing was always a dream of hers and even though she had no idea what she was doing she took a chance. She walked into the studio unknown and walked out as Sydney B.
One year into recording her self-written tunes, she was asked to rap on a track. The guys thought the white girl was just going to mess up and move on, but little did they know they opened up a whole new world for Sydney. She's a member of the Gulf Coast's hottest studio, The Underground Talent Center, where she records with her fellow team members. She is also a member of the Hip Hop group The Grey Area with fellow rappers YJ and her sister Leila Bleu under the label Match1 Productions out of Mobile, AL. Sydney was recently featured on south Alabama's hottest Hip Hop and R&B radio station 93 Blx's The Underground hosted by Nina Rawz.
Sydney is constantly performing and pushing herself to be greater than she has ever been. She has faced much adversity being a southern white female Hip Hop artist. No blank stare or harsh opinion ever bothered her. She is a big heart wrapped in talent. The only thing she wants in this life is to show people that if you love what you do then it's never work. Sydney wants to start a charity for veterans who have received no help from the country they fought to protect. She would also like to show bigger sized people that sometimes talent does shine brighter than the glitter and glam that is often used in place of it; sometimes size has nothing to do with it.

The Global Governance of International Migration: What Next?
The regulation of international migration and migrant rights are among the most contested public policy issues around the world. In 2013-14 a series of high-level policy meetings (including the High-Level Dialogue on Migration and Development in New York, and the Global Forum on Migration and Development in Stockholm) will debate the global governance of migration, migrant rights and development. Do we need more global governance of international migration? If so, why and what should it aim to achieve? How, if at all, should international migration be integrated in the post-2015 development agenda?

Needs more windows, but it's beautiful.
man such a beautiful house/ houses
well i am very intrested in seeing one of these little beauties first hand
i am also very intrested in a price for this baby
nice houses
want one of those
got the land
just a matter of time
oooops sorry about the double post
i am also very intrested in the house aquaman built
will pm once post count hits 20
hence the dribble post
Here's another Thai teakwood house, this one is an old house that has been bought for the wood and is now being rebuilt near Pattaya, only trouble is is that it is right close to Sukhumvit Road so they will have traffic noise problems, next door to it is the owners garden center, she doesn't know when it will be finished as she is a bit skint at the moment.
Can't really see it in this picture but the doors are really nice and have carvings on them.
A bit closer to the doors.
A couple more walls and some of the fancy roof stuff to go up.
Something like this would be worth buying for the wood, ok it's bloody ugly but you only need a saw to redesign it
You're far better buying a couple of old teak houses from up north, Chiang Rai to Phrae area, having them renovated up there than transported down. I think wooden houses around Pattaya are well over priced, same around Udon actually.
See Dr. Andys thread 'house in the ricefields'.
probes Aliens
Sad though, as the land once was my wifes grandfathers, and he traded it for a few sacks of rice when everythihg went wrong and the family was hungry.
true DD
A lot of the old wood houses are quite ugly, just built by themselves without much thought about appearance etc
but they often have really nice wood, thick teak planks, hard wood beams
dd am i hearing you right
you actually buy that house and then they move it to your land?
how much you reckon i could buy one like that for?
i am talking everything complete??
thanks mcc
1 million or 100 million, your being a bit vague, to buy the wood is like real cheap, but to build a luxury mansion from several of these isn't, your question is too vague.
I went to check on my land yesterday, yes, it's still there, anyway my neighbour who used to have coconut trees has cleared them and planted something else, look like palm trees to me, also he has started building himself a nice teakwood house
This teak wood house is nice, they are making them down off of Soi Khao Talo, they have a few different designs, only got a picture of this one as you know they think you are stealing their special designs that nobody else could think of.
If you was to purchase one of these small teak houses and have them put up just for a few years can you just take them down and move them when you want? I have a great plot of land but no house at the moment but i would like something small and stylish just for now on the land.

Yes, you can.Originally Posted by lozillionaire
I have just bought a nice old rice barn. It is similar to a house except it has no stairs (they think that fools the rats). Very cute, 6 big posts, cost B10,000 and another B10,000 to move and rebuild to similar specs. I will need some new wood to replace old, useless bits though.

I will post when up and finished
as for cheap, I thought it was OK. Our builder knew we had rice and needed a barn, so he mentioned a neighbour wanted to sell one
it is quite high (3 metres) so I will use the underneath as a workshop for wood

Police have been asked to look into the case of three foreigners who were caught on video performing BASE jumping in the bustling district of Tin Hau.
Based on the video clip, the young men jumped from the top of Park Towers and, with the help of a parachute or glider, landed near Victoria Park last month, hk01.com reports.
The footage, which was posted on the Facebook page of JukinVideo, has recorded over 800,000 views so far.
Netizens criticized the young men for neglecting their own safety and posing danger to pedestrians and other road users.
It is understood that the trio leaped off the roof of the 48-storey Park Towers with the intention of landing at a section of Hing Fat Street.
As seen in the video, the three took turns in diving from the building and opening the gliders in mid-air, with the entire process taking around four seconds.
The video then showed the three seated at a table inside a restaurant, apparently celebrating their feat.
"Good job, boys!" someone was heard telling them.
BASE jumping is a very dangerous fringe sport or stunt that is prohibited in many jurisdictions. "BASE" is an acronym for the fixed objects where one could jump: building, antenna, span and Earth.
A representative of the building's management office did not confirm if the reported activities had taken place in the premises, but said they have reported the incident to the Civil Aviation Department (CAD).
The CAD said in a reply to media inquiries that it has referred the case to the police for investigation, and warned that such activities carried out in an urban setting could pose danger to the public.
It said persons wishing to perform similar stunts should consult the CAD to ensure that they are not violating any regulations.
Article 48 of the Air Navigation (Hong Kong) Order 1995 stipulates that a person shall not recklessly or negligently cause or permit an aircraft to endanger any person or property.
Offenders are liable to prosecution and, if convicted, face a fine and up to two years' imprisonment.
– Contact us at [email protected]
(First posted at 3:19 p.m. Thursday; the article has been amended to refer to the activity as BASE jumping.)

Can you confirm if you really did receive notification mails for the submitted forms you were referring to? Do you have this form embedded somewhere, or are you using it as a standalone form?
And by the way, I just recently checked your form's submissions page and I found two new submissions. Could these be the missing entries you were looking for?

"I just got this job doing social media management for Mission of Hope. I'm actually from Arizona. I'm from the Phoenix/Mesa area, so I'm used to like eighty degrees right now. I just moved here like three weeks ago, so I'm getting used to it, kind of."
"I have a degree in English and Creative Writing from U of A, and I was doing social media management for car dealerships out in Phoenix, and then I got pregnant, and then just, things kind of headed south from there, and I moved out here for family. I had community service hours to finish up from some trouble I got into in Arizona, and I found this place. So, I was working in the food pantry initially getting my community service hours knocked out. After a while I talked to Martin and he realized I had a degree and had other skills to offer. So, I got a job here, which is really awesome. It's like the last thing that I expected, but it's really been helping me get back on my feet. And I feel like these are my people, so it's cool to be able to help out in that regard."
"What's an example of something you do with social media management?"
"For example, today we do 'Mission Mondays', and it's kind of a lot like you guys, actually. They've got all kinds of raw video footage and they interview people as well, so we're putting together these videos that highlight each person's journey as we go, like every week. So, this week is Cliff. They're little five-minute videos that are edited by a Coe College student, and just put up on YouTube. They're really cool, really inspiring videos."

My client went live with Asset accounting since ten months ago without validating the posted/migrated values before sign off and they have been executing depreciation run as normal until the realised that most of the asset was migrated with undervalued amount, secondly due to exchange rate some of the assets were also overvalued because the business reports to the parent company based on USD.
Option1. Due to audit reasons they wouldn't like to end the economic life of these assets and recreate them with the remaining useful life at its current NBV.
Option 2. Use transaction code ABNAN to add additional value to these asset.
Option 3. Reset the company codes for these accounts and reload them using AS92.Im not of the impact on the G/L and subledger as we could end up with incorrect data in the system since this was reloaded the second time.
Option 4. Reload all assets with the correct values but this is creating a technical challenge on its own.
Has anyone experienced such and if so what are the steps taken to resolve this issue.

http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet/risk/aspartame . The NCI study concluded that aspartame consumption did NOT increase the risk of any cancers, including leukemias, lymphomas, and brain cancer. The FDA approved daily dose of aspartame is 50 mg/kg of body weight, or about 16 cans of diet soda for a 150-pound person.
So why all the controversy? Well, for one thing, did you know that laboratory research causes cancer in rats? Yes, that's right, if you feed or inject rats with enough of anything, they will get cancer. Furthermore, Rats do not equal People. We cure breast cancer in mice and rats all the time, but we cannot cure people yet. Just about anything is dangerous in high enough doses (even pure water!).
I'm sure the experts will continue to argue about aspartame for decades to come. The bottom line: aspartame probably isn't good for you (for this reason, and for others I will discuss in future posts), and you should limit your intake. If you drink a diet pop or two everyday, you're most likely going to be just fine. There is no need for panicking and all those zombie pictures all over the internet. I for one am going to try to reduce my Diet Pepsi consumption, and I already think that foods made with aspartame (like Yoplait light yogurts) taste positively awful. If you like to limit your calories in things like coffee or tea, I recommend trying Stevia, which is an all-natural plant-derived sweetener.

Thibaut Courtois admits he may need to see specialist over possible eye injury
Belgium keeper still being plagued by problems three weeks after injury and missed the clash with Holland to help recovery
THIBAUT COURTOIS admits he may need to see a doctor - if he can see through his crocked eye.
Keeper Courtois is the latest Chelsea star to emerge from international duty battered and bruised along with Diego Costa and Eden Hazard.
Courtois was forced to miss Belgium's friendly draw against Holland last Wednesday because of a bloodshot eye which is proving a blinking nuisance.
Keep up to date with ALL the Chelsea news, gossip, transfers and goals on our club page plus fixtures, results and live match commentary
If the problem fails to clear up it may even force him to seek further medical attention.
Courtois said: "Although I have no pain, it will continue to look red. If it does not quickly improve, I will have to go to the eye doctor."
Chelsea's number one did manage the full 90 minutes of Sunday's 8-1 demolition of Estonia in a World Cup qualifier although he did concede his first goal since September 24.
Courtois' teammate Costa is still being assessed by club medics after returning from Spain's training camp without kicking a ball when he aggravated a groin problem.
Costa limped out of training last Thursday and immediately flew home for intensive treatment. It is still unclear whether the Premier League's leading goalscorer will be fit for Sunday's trip to Middlesbrough.
Chelsea are leaving it as late as possible to decide whether he will be able to play or will have to sit it out with £33million understudy Michy Batshuayi ready to step in.
In-form Hazard has scored eight goals in eight games and he too has picked up a minor injury, getting a kick on his calf after scoring in Belgium's biggest win for 11 years.

Hazard is expected back at Chelsea's training ground today and is hopeful of delivering good news to boss Antonio Conte.
A Belgian source said: "Eden was spotted after the game smiling and joking around. He was taking loads of selfies with his mates and guests and didn't seem at all concerned about his injury.
"If it was bad then we don't think he would be so happy. He'd be off having treatment at the very least."

CImA Course
CImA is a leading membership body that offers a globally recognized professional management accounting qualification. CImA qualification has an emphasis on accounting for business.
CImA qualified management accountants have an excellent understanding of finance and business. They use this to shape the future of their organizations. They have a broad business perspective and excellent employment opportunities around the world.
CImA is the only professional accounting body that revises its syllabus and related examinations every four years following a comprehensive consultation and research program to ensure that the syllabus and examinations reflect the current needs of business. All of the syllabus content is international in scope and the structure has been carefully considered to reflect the importance of both examinations and practical experience.
To qualify as a Chartered Management Accountant under the CImA qualification, an applicant must:
Theoretical + Practical + Applied and professional standards = CImA qualification VALUE for Employer
Employers value the CImA qualification for its balanced mix of theoretical, practical and applied development of skills and knowledge. The combination of these factors ensures that CImA members understand how a business operates.
The CImA syllabus provides the in-depth theory which is the cornerstone of all CImA members' knowledge. CImA's strength is combining the theory with the need to demonstrate the practical application of this in the real world of business. TOPCImA, the final test of professional competence, is the ultimate test of practical ability prior to qualification.
Not only do CImA members gain the tools and techniques within the syllabus to apply the theory in practice, but there is a rigorous requirement of practical application prior to qualification. Each student has to complete a minimum of three years' practical experience.
This practical experience complements the CImA syllabus by identifying the essential financial and technical skills required to become a competent Chartered Management Accountant, but what really differentiates Chartered Management Accountants is that this focus includes a demonstration of the broader management abilities, such as interpersonal and organisational skills, that are so essential to succeed in the business world.
CImA believes that the practical application of knowledge is of greater value than the acquisition of the knowledge itself. Therefore, CImA has a robust continuous professional development policy which is based on outcomes rather than hours completed.
CImA works closely with employers to ensure a synergy exists with their in-house training needs and development. This avoids duplication whilst adding value to the employer. We have a CPD (CImA Professional Development) accreditation program which is specifically designed to support employer organizations to get the best out of their CImA qualified staff.
Ethical Conduct and Governance
Membership of CImA demonstrates the achievement and maintenance of technical competence but beyond this, members are also required to uphold the highest professional and ethical standards when applying their knowledge and skills.
This is a fundamental difference between qualifications retained through a professional body and other role-focused qualifications such as MBAs, diplomas and certificates.
It is part of CImA's responsibility to stakeholders, including employers, regulators and the business community at large, to promote ethics to our members
Roles and Functions of CImA Members
The diversity of functions in which CImA members operate can be demonstrated from the findings of our 2006 member survey. The following are areas which occupy a significant amount of time within the roles of CImA members.
|Management Accounting
|Financial Management
|Planning and Strategy

I am not boycotting Google, and I am not so naive to think that other tech products don't have the same ultra-surviellance-you-are-the-product problems that Google has. I just feel like, if tech companies are going to be the man-behind-the-curtain while we live out our little Oz-lives, wouldn't it better to have a few of them rather than just one? So -- you know, the one couldn't rule the world?
Two practical steps I've taken are 1) switching
my search engine to Duck-Duck-Go and 2) deleting Google maps on my
phone. Oh yeah -- I also disabled location on my weather app, when I
read that weather apps sell data location and I came home one day after
shopping for physical shoes and was inundated with shoe-related web ads.
I know: whatever. But also: creepy.
So: what have I learned so far?
1. People have a lot of opinions about other people's technology choices.
This starts with a long story, so bear with me. As
regular readers also know, while I often take the Greyhound bus between
Toronto and Waterloo, I decided to experiment
recently with the GO bus. Specifically, in this case, I took a 7:20 am
bus from Toronto to Bramalea, where I would change to catch a different
bus to Kitchener terminal, where I'd get a local bus to Waterloo. This
schedule has a "timed transfer," which means that the bus in Bramalea is
supposed to wait to leave until after the bus from Toronto has arrived.
I got on the bus in Toronto the driver got up in front and said, "Is
anyone going to Kitchener"? I raised my hand. As he acknowledged me, his
face fell. "OK, he said, I'll have them hold the bus for you. There's
an accident and long delay on the 401, so we're likely to be quite
As we started off, I sat in the pre-dawn darkness
digesting this information and fretting about my responsibilities. If we
were going to be late, should I ethically tell the drive not to bother,
that I'd just catch whatever bus I could? But they only come every
hour. How late would we be? This is the kind of small stupid thing that I
can really get myself into an anxiety about, so I was thrilled when a
guy, Mr. X we'll call him, got on at the next stop and said, "I'm going
to Kitchener. They're going to hold the bus, right?" Out of my hands.
trip ended up being epic and complicated along multiple dimensions. We
were quite late. At first, the driver couldn't get ahold of the Bramalea
drive to ask him to wait. At the last minute, he did, but the Bramalea
bus had already left the stop, so we had to catch up to him along the
service road. We were admonished "Do not run to catch the bus!" which I
guess is because they're afraid people will fall. Then between Bramalea and
Kitchener, an even more massive car crash had actually closed the
highway, and our bus, along with a million other vehicles, got off and
crept along the side streets.
As we'd made our
bus connection, I had briefly engaged Mr. X in conversation about our situation.
Turns out he was making this trip for the first time as well. Didn't
know where he was going, was heading to some kind of business conference
thing near Kitchener. He asked me for directions. I didn't know. He
asked me what I taught at the university. I told him. He leaned in for follow up convo. I put my headphones on.
At something like 11:00, when
we'd all been trapped on this bathroom-less bus together literally for
hours, Mr. X asked me if I had data on my phone, and I told him yes, and
he asked me to look up the location of his event, and I said why don't
you just borrow my phone and look up whatever you need to. And he took
my phone -- an iPhone -- and he stared at it, befuddled.
"Um," I said, "are you looking for the browser or the maps program?" And he said, "Google maps." And I said, "Yeah ... I don't have Google maps. You can use the Apple maps, or a browser." And he looked up, and -- honest to god -- started lecturing me on how Google maps was better than other maps programs, including Apple maps. He had a friend in tech. He knew all about it. There was research. Google was better. Way better. I'm sitting there, looking at this guy, a stranger to whom I have just lent my phone, a profound act of trust and -- he is fucking lecturing me?
I didn't tell him I was engaged in a complicated non-boycott. I didn't tell him I knew that Apple is just as bad as everyone, but that it didn't seem in the same world-domination business as everyone else which is one reason I feel OK using it. I just stared at him, and, eventually, took my phone back.
I wish I could say this is an isolated incident, but it's just a relatively dramatic one. Often I'm in conversation, and some question or problem comes up, and I'm like "Oh, I'll look it up," and enter into the search bar and ... hmm. And I say to my friend or acquaintance, "I can't find it..." and they're like "Wait, you can't find it? Really?" And I start to explain, "Well, you see, Duck-Duck-Go ... and etc. etc., ..." and they look at me like "What planet are you from again?
2. The surveillance bubble is the surveillance bubble
I am constantly taken aback by my search results on alternative search engines. On Google, I search for a philosopher by name, and I see a philosopher. I search for a Toronto bar by name, and I see a Toronto bar. I search for health and science info, and I see help sites and scholarly sites.
It's not like that out in the search wilderness. You type in a philosopher's name, you see a million links of athletes and celebrities and random people with Instagram accounts who have the same name. You type in the name of a Toronto bar, and you see a pub in Idaho. You search for health and science info, and you get some site like "mystichealthhealing.com"
It's bracing. I mean, intellectually, I always knew that Google was shaping my results to tailor them to me based on the vast data about me that they had at their fingertips. But seeing it in action is something else. For one thing, it makes you realize your part of the world is way smaller than you think-- a salutary lesson that probably most of us could stand to have reinforced every day. For another thing, it reminds you that the bad things about Google -- the infinite tracking, the knowing your favorite brand of toothpaste -- is essential to the good thing about Google -- the knowing just what you were looking for.
This means the conflict between convenience and privacy is an essential one. There's no magic world where we get the one without losing the other. It's always going to be a trade off. The surveillance bubble that tells you what you want to learn is the same surveillance bubble that keeps you trapped in the world of your own information.
3. Google is a really good search engine.
Sometimes when I really need to find something, I go to the Google search page. It works amazingly well. I guess we all knew this, but still.
If they could ratchet back the dreams of world domination, and stop trying to make entire "smart" neighborhoods in cities I care about, Google and I might be able to get back together.
In the meantime, though, not finding the things I'm looking for is not really that big of a deal. Sometimes, I ask people, and we chat. It's nice.

What I Learned Using "Alternative" Tech
1 comment:
- Daniel said...
I laughed out loud at "I put my headphones back on."
Reading your technology-related posts makes me hate my technology more than ever. I hate that I can remember what it was like not to know things or not to have the information at my fingertips (with a Google search) - or, in other words, to have some patience and perspective.
Doomed, I say.
Oh well.
Thanks for the funny posts!
p.s. I just spent 4 hours (huge exaggeration) trying to click all the pictures with "roads" to prove I'm not a robot. I couldn't do it right. I'm totally a robot, I guess.

A cat bite is not always an act of aggression or hostility. After all, kittens and young cats are famously known for their adoration of rough play -- essentially a type of interactive rough and tumble with their litter mates that involves everything from biting and pouncing to surprise attacks.
Rough Play
If your cat is biting or "nipping" at you playfully, take it as a sign of affection. He is doing to you what he might have done with his litter mates as a wee kitten. Rough play is a crucial developmental stage in a kitten's life. It teaches cats how to play and have fun without taking things too far. A kitten learns early on that if he bites his sibling a tad too hard, the other may either completely stop the game or worse, seek revenge -- yikes. Because of this important social and interactive "schooling" in a cat's early months, he usually learns how to harmlessly chase, pounce, bite and use his claws.
Painful Bites
Due to the early training, most playful cat bites don't hurt very much. However, this isn't true in all cases. If your kitten or adult cat bites you to the point of pain, it may be because he was separated from his mother cat and litter mates at an especially early age. With insufficient play training, it's no surprise when a cat doesn't know how to "properly" bite as an adult. The hard bite doesn't mean your cat is trying to be aggressive with you. Your cat likely still is engaging you in a loving and playful game.
Unfortunately and unsurprisingly, a cat bite is not always a sign of endearment or affection. In fact, it is often quite the opposite. Cats also bite when they're angry, scared, nervous and in attack or defense mode. Though it's usually pretty easy to discern the difference between a loving nip and an actual bite, look out for telling indications that a cat is genuinely upset with something or someone -- think hissing, growling, a violently thrashing tail and flattened ears.
Whether a cat bites you with affection or with anger, it is important to exercise the utmost caution, especially if he hasn't yet been vaccinated. Be smart and play it safe. Go the doctor immediately to get your bite checked out. The last thing you want is to experience a dangerous infection like rabies -- ugh. Never scrimp on your health -- or the health of your fluffy pal, for that matter.

Luke 12: 22-40
Do Not Worry
22 Then Jesus said to his disciples: "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; or about your body, what you will wear. 23 For life is more than food, and the body more than clothes. 24 Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! 25 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to your life? 26 Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?
27 "Consider how the wild flowers grow. They do not labor or spin. Yet I tell you, not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 28 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today, and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, how much more will he clothe you—you of little faith!29 And do not set your heart on what you will eat or drink; do not worry about it. 30 For the pagan world runs after all such things, and your Father knows that you need them. 31 But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.
32 "Do not be afraid, little flock, for your Father has been pleased to give you the kingdom. 33 Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. 34 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
35 "Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, 36 like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately open the door for him. 37 It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them. 38 It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready, even if he comes in the middle of the night or toward daybreak. 39 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. 40 You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him."
Today's Inspiration
Martin Luther had once said, "Even though I know that tomorrow the world will be ruined to pieces, I will still plant this little apple tree and paid my debts." Fransiscus from Asisi also acted the same. He was pruning the plants in his garden when someone asked about what will he do if he know that later in the evening he will die. He answered, "I will keep on pruning my garden until I finish."
Maybe to many people their answers are weird. Other people maybe will answer that if they know when they will die, they probably will pray all the time and praising the Lord non-stop or being in the church every day, and et cetera. If they know when the apocalypse will come, may they will try to do good deeds as much as possible until all of his treasures are used up.
But for Luther and Fransiscus, daily routines are divine tasks that they have. They did not separate the secular works with the spiritual ones. Whatever that they did every day was a service to God. Their attention was not towards the things that they do, but for whom did they do the works. The things that at first glance seem to be low like taking care of the plants worth an eternity that they were faithful in doing it till the end. Why? Because they saw themselves as the servant of God, that they were willing to do all things as if for God and not for men.
And our attitude must also be like that. Our daily works, probably sweeping the floor, mopping it, taking care of the children, teaching, serving customers, working at the office, activities at ministry, and et cetera. All of those things are a form of our service to God. And if we realise this, we will not take those for granted, right?
Today's Reflection
- What will you do if the end of the world is coming soon or that you are almost at the end of your life?
- Do you consider that whatever things that you do are a service for God? What can or will happen when you consider it that way?
Today's Action
Do whatever things you are doing with faithfulness! You need to realise for whom did you do the works!
Today's Word
"It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. Truly I tell you, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them." [Luke 12:37, NIV]

bad hair day
Strictly speaking, this duck has a bad feather day. The photo illustrates the past few days very well, it has been a bit of a bad hair week. I am not referring to my hair of course, this is mostly a bit wild, even a on a good hair day.
Richard and I have been unwell since Friday last week. I am rarely ill and nor is Richard and that we are both unwell at the same time is an unlucky coincidence. We blame James, poor wee mite. James is much better now, which is good. He still coughs a lot but on the whole he is back to his normal cheerful self. The other three have been fine.
The weekend is a blur. I spent much of it on the sofa or in bed although I did manage to play a few games and hand out chores. Turns out Sam is doing a fine job cleaning the bathroom - not that he offered to do it out of the goodness of his teenage heart, he negotiated payment. Empathy with sick parents is not very well developed in our house, we may have to put some more efforts in helping them develop their social conscience. Much arguing ensued over the last banana, the last slice of bread and the dire situation in the cereal cupboard.
We are on the mend. I felt almost human on Monday morning and today my eyes have not been producing a continuous stream of tears, which is nice. I didn't miss any work although I did take it easy. At the moment, I have the pleasure of reading up on a subject I'll be developing teaching material for, something that is quite enjoyable even when under the weather. Richard missed his weekend bike ride, which would normally warrant a visit to the A&E department and he took a sick day on Monday. Neither of us like taking time of sick, it is not worth it because the stress that results in an unplanned absence is worse than working when feeling miserable.
Richard went to a memorial service yesterday and was asked if he had retired yet! He looked much fresher this morning, a good sign of his recovery.
Normal service will resume shortly. Have a good midweek! xx
P.S. no donations of food necessary, Richard went shopping last night.

Ah Christina that all sounds pretty miserable. Sending you long distance hugs. Jo xxxReplyDelete
Hope you're feeling back to normal (whatever that is!) soon, nothing worse than dealing with ill kids while you AND other half are ill :(ReplyDelete
Hey Christina,ReplyDelete
Nothing worse than when both parents are I'll. Marc is always more ill than me of course..., here's hoping you will be on the mend very soon.
Leanne xx
Sorry you've been so under the weather, I hope you're both completely better very soon. VERY impressed with the bathroom cleaning, you have given me an idea... Glad there is food in the house now; things would turn very feral here if we ran out. Eat or be eaten is the motto in our house. CJ xxReplyDelete
Sorry to hear you have been poorly but glad you are both on the mend and the food situation is resolved. My youngest was home last week and complained that there was nothing to eat I.e. No crisps, biscuits, huge blocks of cheese, pizzas etc! Vegetables don't seem to count.ReplyDelete
I hope you both feel better very soon! It's hard enough when one parent is sick.ReplyDelete
I remember that need to go into work even when I felt awful. It was just too much hassle doing otherwise. Glad you are feeling a little better and that food supplies have been replenished. Hellish when you have to fight over the last banana :). I decided years ago that payment was the only way to go with teenagers. Mind you I called it pocket money and it had to be earnt..my cunning plan! Always a bad hair day here too, hats are good. Hope your week improves. B xReplyDelete
Sorry to hear that the two of you have been ill, hard to keep a family running when you're both downReplyDelete
I hope you're feeling a bit better by now. It's funny how mums are always the ones to nurse us when we're poorly but whenever they're under the weather everything comes to a grinding halt.ReplyDelete
I hope you and Richard are feeling much better. It's not easy when both of you are ill, good that you have the two older ones to help out and look after James and Alastair even if Sam required payment for his services.ReplyDelete
Bless your heart. Little B was ill for two weeks with that wracking cough. His little body got thinner and tighter and I could not help him. He is on the mend now, hope you feel better my friend. You need to rest up!ReplyDelete
The coughs and colds this year have been ones that hang on for ever! Glad to hear you're getting better now xReplyDelete
I'm sorry to hear that 3 of you got this.. we all had it here too.. I'm glad some of your family managed to miss it. I hope you all get much better and are back to normal fast. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)ReplyDelete
Glad to hear you're feeling better. I too rarely take time off for sickness, unless it's the flu. I hate to let people down and leave them stranded.ReplyDelete
Hopefully this weekend you will all be back to regular routines. Take care,
That was very bad luck indeed to both end up sick at the same time. I'm glad you are on the mend. Hopefully in a day or two you'll feel 100% again. And I think Sam has great entrepreneurial potential. :-)ReplyDelete
oh dear, hope you are feeling fully recovered soon xxxReplyDelete
Glad you are improving, and the cupboards have been restocked. Hope you are well soon, I can completely empathise having had what sounds to be very similar, and also having been like James and passed it on to my mum. xxReplyDelete
Thank you for visiting and leaving a comment, I love to hear from you, I really do. I sometimes reply by email but I am not all that reliable... Christina xx

Lately I have been noticing a lot of cultural differences in the way people work, think and act in Mexico. From business situations in my multicultural new job to social and everyday life encounters. And I am not just talking about Mexicans and US-ans … lately I am surrounded by people from all over Europe, South America and North America. With various languages and even more varied ideas about life, it is always a cultural experiment living in such a multicultural environment. For example, I just hosted a party with guests from no less than 8 countries! The party was interesting to see how people act and interact in different ways, many of them ruled by a hidden cultural guide unknown even to them.
I like to think of Cultural traits as a software installed since childhood, when we watch, listen and learn from our parents, families and those around us how we should act in certain situations, what type of verbal and non-verbal communication we should use, and when to do and say specific things. Even though the majority of this learning will always be sub-conscious, years later it will still be visible in our many of our actions, expressions and manners of communicating. Let's take the simple social event of a party; there are a million examples of the influence of people's cultural upbringing guiding their behavior. For example:
- Some arrive early, some arrive late
- Some bring home-made gifts, some bring nothing but a smile
- Some stick to their date or friends all night barely talking with anyone else, while others make the rounds several times and leave with a long list of new friends
- Some smoke, some don't … some drink, some don't … and others smoke and drink (a lot)
- Some dance, even before being drunk, others dance, only when drunk, and still others never get up the courage to move their bodies at all
- Some sit down most of the night, others prefer to stay standing
- Some talk a lot, others listen more
- Some munch directly from the snack bowl, others take some chips into their napkin or hand to eat
- Some talk about their careers and accomplishments, others talk about their families and travels
- Some treat the bar tender with utmost respect, others order the him around rudely
- Some carefully clean up when they are through, others don't seem to notice the avalanche of a mess they leave behind
- Some take ice, others lots of lime, and a few just like it hot
- Some leave early, others leave when the hosts start to fall asleep after 4am 🙂
While not all of these differences are purely cultural, I personally believe (after studying anthropology and thinking way too much as I people-watch for hours on end) that many more differences have their roots in our cultural-infused upbringing than we care to admit. And when I say "culture" I don't just mean Mexican, Brazilian or US-an. I am referring to micro-cultures of sociocultural groups (e.g., US hippies, Mexican fresas), religious groups (Catholic vs. Jewish), socioecomic levels (middle vs. upper, NSE C vs. B+), and so many other micro-groups we belong to that influence how each one of us is raised from childhood to adulthood.
Just something to think about the next time you attend a party. Watch people's actions and interactions, think about how and possibly why they do the things they do. It adds a fascinating new dimension to every party!
