"In summary, phototherapy has been shown to be effective in SAD, where it is a viable clinical treatment and, in many cases, the treatment of choice."
"We exposed him (Kern) to 2000 lux light in the morning and in the afternoon, that is before dawn and after dusk, to effectively lengthen his winter days to those that would be similar to a spring photoperiod when he would spontaneously switch out of his depression"
"winter depression is accompanied by a distinctive constellation of symptoms, including overeating, oversleeping, and carbohydrate craving; that is triggered by light deficiency; and that it responds to a novel type of treatment, phototherapy."
"Seasonal rhythms have been documented in human beings too. Some examples include conception rates, mortality, growth rate, endocrine activities, and emotional states. ... It has been suggested that the seasonal cycles exhibited by SAD patients are simply exaggerated versions of those seen in the general population.. There is certainly ample evidence for seasonal cycles in body weight and fatness in human beings. In both adults and children, weight gains are reported to be greatest in autumn and winter, and lowest in spring and summer. The prevalence of obesity is generally highest in autumn or winter and lowest in summer. Finally in obese women, weight loss treatments have been reported to be most effective in the spring and least effective in the winter.
"Prevalence of SAD in the U.S. varies with latitude. In a northern state such as Minnesota, SAD affects more than 100 people per 1000, whereas in Florida it affects fewer than six people per 100,000".
"Recent epidemiological studies have found that the behaviors that characterize seasonal affective disorder (SAD) show seasonal variation in 92%-95% of the general population suggesting that seasonal variation in behavior and mood is a continuous, dimensional variable extending throughout the general population."
"Indeed a great majority of the general population report seasonal changes, and according to the epidemiological studies mentioned above, 20-25% regard these changes as a problem."
"Rates of winter SAD and subsyndromal SAD were found to be significantly higher in the northern latitudes."

Badal to meet PM on SGPC crisis
Chief minister Parkash Singh Badal will meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to resolve the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) impasse as the Union home ministry is still to notify the date for holding the new SGPC session.punjab Updated: Mar 16, 2012 18:59 IST
Chief minister Parkash Singh Badal will meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to resolve the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) impasse as the Union home ministry is still to notify the date for holding the new SGPC session to elect its office-bearers and 11-member executive body.
"I have asked for an appointment with the PM and as soon as I get the reply, I will meet Dr Singh," said Badal while talking to mediapersons here on Friday after paying obeisance at the Golden Temple along with his cabinet colleagues, including his son and deputy CM Sukhbir Singh Badal.
Elections for the 170 member SGPC house were held in September last year. Thereafter in December following a notification by the union home ministry the new SGPC house met to co-opt 15 members. Jathedars of the five Sikh takhts and the head granthi of the Harmandir Sahib are the ex-officio members of the house.
However since then the home ministry has not issued the requisite notification for summoning a meeting of the new general house to elect the president, other office bearers and the executive.
In the absence of the notification the office bearers which include president Avtar Singh Makkar who were elected in November 2010 are continuing. The delay in issuing the notification is probably due to the case filed by the Sehajdhari Federation which is pending in the Punjab and Haryana high court.
The federation had challenged the 2004 union government's decision to debar Sehajdharis (non-Sikhs who believe in the Sikh ideology) from voting in the SGPC general elections. A case filed by the SGPC in the Supreme Court seeking due recognition of the new house is also pending.
On the delay by the home ministry, Badal said, "It is sad that the central government has not issued the notification. The SGPC is a unique body which was formed after a great deal of sacrifice during the freedom struggle. Even the PM's father took part in the struggle against British raj that led to the formation of the SGPC."
He pointed out that this crisis was of a very grave nature as the SGPC house must meet before March 31 to clear the budget proposals for the next fiscal year. "If this does not happen then the SGPC will not be able to spend a single penny and even the employees will go without salaries", he added.

Six months after the launch of the latest Kent Property Market Report, Mark Coxon, head of commercial agency and one of the authors of the 2017 report, shares an update.
Industrial sector
The last 18 – 24 months has seen the greatest increase in both land values, industrial rents and investment yields, which are now higher or have hardened when compared with pre-recession 2008.
The amount of money being invested into the sector by UK pension funds and overseas investors is at an hiatus where yields on multi-let industrial estates are now reaching 4%, the lowest they have been. Similarly, single let sheds are seeing yields in the order of 5%, the disparity due to the risk in taking on one single asset.
What is true throughout the South East and not only in Kent, is the lack of investment stock. Primarily, investors have nowhere to put their money if they do sell. Coupled with a lack of development over the last 10 years this had led to little availability.
Industrial land values
Although there is a lack of land to actually build in Kent, land values have similarly risen to a level not seen before. In Dartford, for example, land values are now at £1.5m per acre; and moving further east Rochester is now off £650,000 per acre. Sittingbourne has lagged behind but is trading at £450,000 per acre, which is a 10% increase over the last 6-months but is seen as good value. Closer to the M25, Sevenoaks is at £1.5m per acre. East Kent has seen little increase due to relative lack of occupational demand.
The county's existing stock has eroded with the increase in pre-let activity. We have seen the London Medway Park in Rochester letting over 600,000 sq. ft. over the last two years. Speculative construction is currently evident in Belvedere with over 200,000 sq. ft. within 3 buildings having recently been built.
The self-storage and trade counter market has also come back - the former finally putting behind them their recession driven reluctance to move beyond the M25.
Where the buoyant residential sector is crossing over and affecting the industrial market is on deals from house builders acquiring sheds and land to store product for their modular home concepts. Berkeley Homes have purchased 10 acres in Northfleet to construct a modular build facility, and other similar developments are planned elsewhere in the county.
Office sector
Kings Hill and Crossways Business Park are seeing some demand for the larger floor plates, but the majority of activity countywide is below 5,000 sq. ft. Gillingham Business Park has, for the first time in its history, been near to 100% let.
Business parks
Sevenoaks and Bromley are leading rental levels at £30 per sq. ft. Other centres such as Chatham Maritime are yet to see any significant lettings this year. The east of the county, in particular Ashford, has had a few successes with Ashford pre-letting an entire floor of the Quinn development-Connect 38 - the first new town based office development in Kent for approximately 20 years. Discovery Park's new owners are in the process of applying for planning permission to extend the park. Some local towns are still struggling with substandard stock, although due to Permitted Development rights, much of this has been lost to residential.
Office investment
There is little to report on the investment market due to lack of stock. What has been on the market has needed a robust occupational story to catch the investor's eye, but sadly Kent office investment does not always attract the major funds. The former Chambros House is under offer to the NHS with secure income off 7.5%; two offices at Eureka Business Park - 200 and 210 - are available at 8.6%; this follows the sale of Units 110 and 120 Trinity House to the London Borough of Bromley in April last year at 6.16%.
The picture wouldn't be quite complete without a brief comment on retail. The high street always loses to out of town retail centres, but actually continues steadily, though fortunes are very much town specific. The latter are all performing well with very few voids. Most noticeable lettings include the St James Retail and Leisure Development in Dover where the Food Warehouse, part of the Iceland Group, have acquired.
With a host of Company Voluntary Arrangements (CVAs)and administrations, most towns will be affected by an increase in stock, although these retailers have always picked good locations within the high street so re-letting may not be so much of a problem. There are few investment transactions, but high street retail is still reaching around 4% for good covenants and long leases.
Other sectors
Other sectors such as out of town retail, hotel, and the food and non-food sectors are all desperate for well-located sites. Similarly local authorities are actively looking for sites to accommodate their D1 school requirements. Sites for motor dealerships are also hard to come by, although Jardine's has just acquired 3.5 acres, which fronts the A26 at Tonbridge, for a new facility.
The funds and private equity companies continue to pile into emerging sectors including accommodation for students, where Deutsche Finance Ltd has purchased Canterbury Student Manor. The Care home sector has had similar success with Legal & General acquiring in Leeds Village at Ledham Farm.
Caxtons is hoping for another 12–18 months of a good and stable market before one or two drawbridges have to be pulled up, following the UK's exit from Europe, but who can actually predict what the Brexit effect will be?

Phil enjoyed his visits to the Starlight Centre, almost as much as Monty, his ageing golden Labrador. The dog revelled in the attention from patients recovering from traumas most people fortunately never have to contend with. Some had been devastated by the death of a loved one, or were dealing with drug withdrawal symptoms. Others had lost colleagues and limbs on active service. All were confronting their recovery in different ways and with varying degrees of success when Phil and Monty arrived as part of a pet therapy programme.
So every day, between six and seven o'clock in the evening, the teenager and his dog would be welcomed into the retreat, accompanied by Angela carrying her wide-eyed Persian cat, and Ahmed with his giant lop-eared rabbit. All of them were appreciated, but Monty appeared to work magic. Many patients were so relaxed by his presence, Phil sometimes experienced a glimmer of what they were going through. The sensations could often be so overwhelming his sleep was disturbed by strange dreams for nights afterwards. Yet Monty always slept soundly, totally relaxed after the day's encounters. Phil was baffled by his reaction to meeting the mentally and emotionally wounded. The only trauma he had ever suffered in his 16 years was having to save his younger brother from drowning in a reservoir, and he wouldn't have been able to do that if Monty hadn't helped them swim to shore. The golden Labrador had been much younger then, but apparently could still work miracles.
The only patient to distance herself from what she considered to be a patronising circus was Lieutenant Poulson who had lost a leg and several of her comrades to a roadside bomb. Some experiences were too traumatic for even a friendly pet to ameliorate. But the recovery of others who patted and petted the dog was so remarkable another traumatised ex-soldier suggested that Monty should be cloned and made available on the National Health Service. This encouraged Phil all the more to pass the exams he needed to take up a career in medicine. His Great-aunt Edwina had promised to pay his college fees, so Phil felt duty bound to qualify with merit.
Then the unthinkable happened - Great-aunt Edwina died. She was 97, so was quite entitled to. Unfortunately she had forgotten to make provision for Phil in her will and everything went to her ghastly oldest nephew's family. The fortune was considerable. The beneficiaries were already wealthy and, like many privileged people, could be mean-natured, believing that Phil's hard-working parents were poor because they deserved to be. So the prospect of Phil's glittering career in medicine evaporated overnight. His family did not believe in borrowing money when there was little hope of paying it back. The nearest their son would get to healing people would be through the ageing Monty.
So when he was summoned by his great-aunt's solicitor to be handed a letter it was unexpected, especially as the will had been read several weeks previously. It transpired that the ghastly nephew had also tried to lay claim to the one bequest he wasn't entitled to. He knew that it was valuable yet was unsure why and it was necessary for her executor to wrest it from his family's avaricious clutches.
With the letter was a long, battered box containing a scroll. Phil was invited to unroll it on the solicitor's desk. There was a dusty glow on the parchment's surface, as though it had been powdered with crushed pearls which sparkled through the characters carefully inscribed in vermilion. Not only was the scroll very precious, it was ancient and totally indecipherable. In the same box was a list of linguists specialising in ancient languages who had already examined it in great depth.
Phil looked over the parchment carefully and wondered why on earth Great-aunt Edwina had left it to him. He then let the solicitor gently re-roll the document and replace it in its box. Perhaps his eccentric great-aunt thought he could make sense of it where so many scholars had failed. But then, she had always overestimated his intelligence.
Phil was worried by the responsibility of looking after such an important, precious parchment. He would have donated it to the British Museum if Great-aunt Edwina had not stipulated that he should protect it until he died, and then it be bequeathed to his daughter - or failing to have one - his nearest female relative. There was no indication of what would happen to him if he rejected the terms of the bequest and he wasn't sure that he wanted to find out.
The solicitor could tell what was going through Phil's mind. "Perhaps it's safest in a bank deposit vault. No one has been able to work out what it is, only that it's very old, and valuable because it is such an enigma. Provision has been made for the document's safe storage so you won't need to pay for that."
"But didn't Great-aunt Edwina tell you why she wanted me to have it?"
The solicitor didn't reply straight away. He was familiar with the mythology attached to the heirloom and thought it best this young beneficiary was not told about it until he was 21. "I'm sure it will be safe enough with you for a couple of days. That will give you chance to examine the parchment thoroughly. Then, if you prefer, you can return it to me for safekeeping."
Phil felt uneasy about taking the heirloom home, and just wished the scroll would unfurl and flap out of his bedroom window like a magic carpet, carrying all the weird and incomprehensible characters with it. But he did as the solicitor advised.
That evening, when everyone else was asleep, he unrolled the parchment and gazed at the intertwined characters on it until his head hurt. Still none the wiser as to what they meant, Phil left it on his computer table and went to bed where he fell into a deep sleep to chase away the conundrums of the perplexing day.
About midnight a cold, wet nose nudged his hand. Monty rarely wandered about during the night, happy to remain slumbering in his basket until morning.
Phil sat up.
In the darkness he could see an odd glow emanating from the parchment. He brought it over to his bed where he propped it up on his pillow.
The luminous characters began to move.
He and Monty backed away warily as it became apparent why they had been indecipherable. The writing had not been a language or code, but elements of a drawing. The glowing lines slowly moved about the parchment until they delineated a living face.
It smiled.
Part of Phil wanted to jump out of the window and run for dear life; the other insisted he stay calm and watch. Apart from that, he was on the first floor and would have probably broken a leg.
The face was more alien than human and Monty whimpered anxiously.
The eyelids in the strange features slowly opened and amber eyes gazed at the teenager.
The lips did not move, yet he heard its thoughts.
"Child of the Cosmos, are you aware of the power you possess?"
Phil had no need to answer. His confusion must have been transmitting on all wavelengths.
"You carry the talent special to your forebears; the sons of daughters, and daughters of sons, from time before your history."
Phil was aware of a great grandmother who had been an extraordinary healer, though there was nothing exceptional about his parents as far as he knew.
"Your mother had the power," explained the apparition, "and passed it on to you."
The face then closed its eyes as though the one-sided thought conversation was over.
"Wait!" Phil managed to blurt out. "What do you mean?"
The glowing amber eyes opened again. "You have the power to comprehend the anguish of others, and the power to heal them."
"But that's Monty."
"No Philip, it is you. Do not be afraid of this ability, as your mother was. Use it wisely. Your great aunt understood this, though did not possess it. That belonged to her brother, your grandfather, who is long dead. You will pass it on to your daughter."
Then the eyes finally closed and the lines that had been the features of the face reverted to their original positions on the scroll.
The next thing Phil remembered was waking up at six in the morning, Monty asleep by his bed and the unfurled scroll lying on the pillow beside him.
He sat bolt upright to be was dazzled by a shaft of sunlight. "That was a bloody funny dream." Then he noticed the golden Labrador. "What are you doing here, Monty?"
The old dog just carried on snoring.
It was Saturday, which meant open morning at the Starlight Centre with coffee and biscuits for visitors. It was usually too busy for the pets so Phil decided to take along the flapjacks his mother had baked for them.
The morning was bright. Patients and visitors were milling about the garden, apart from Lieutenant Poulson who was, as usual, sitting by herself in the shade of a tree. She preferred to be left alone. Having lost a leg to that roadside bomb and seen her comrades killed, she refused company, determined to keep the horror and irrational guilt of it to herself. Phil had always been dissuaded from approaching the soldier by the nurses who feared her reaction might alienate him and Monty from wanting to return to the Starlight Centre.
But now he now had the confidence to go over and to sit on the bench beside her. It was the only way to find out whether or not he had dreamt the experience of the previous night.
He opened the tin. "Flapjack? Made this morning."
Lieutenant Poulson turned her hostile gaze towards the teenager.
Phil didn't feel intimidated and reached out to lay his hand on the back of hers. "If you can't manage a whole one, we can share."
The gaze softened a little, as though a tiny thought had been sparked into life at the back of her mind.
There was a long, silent pause. Nearby nurses noticed what was happening and held their breath.
To their relief and surprise the ex-soldier took a flapjack from the tin, broke it, and offered half to Phil.

Folk singer Joan Baez is coming home…to Scotland.
The veteran songwriter and human rights activist, whose mum was born in Edinburgh, will perform here at the end of the month.
Joan, who describes herself as having "strong Scots blood", cannot wait for the gig.
Her mum, also called Joan, lives with her famous daughter in California and will celebrate her 99th birthday in April. Joan Snr's late husband Albert Baez was a prominent physicist.
The star, 71, said: "My mom left Edinburgh when she was an infant."
Although Joan's link with Scotland is almost a lifetime ago, the country still has significant memories for her – as she discovered during an earlier visit.
She said: "One time when I was in Scotland, I called my mother to ask her about her father being a minister who had preached somewhere in Edinburgh.
"She said, 'Oh yes, it's a little church at the bottom of what I think is called Princes Street'.
"So I went from the top of Princes Street and walked down. When I hit the bottom, there was this giant cathedral. I called home again and my mother said, 'Oh yes, that's where Daddy preached.'
"I went into the church and met one of the guides. He was so sweet. I told him the situation so he could dig up all the information and send it to me."
Joan thinks for a moment when asked if she has inherited any Scottish traits from her mother.
She said: "I know it's in some of the music, the early ballads. That would go back on my mother's side."
Joan also remembers her mum having some supernatural experiences over the years, such as a ghostly encounter at a Scottish castle.
She said: "Maybe that's a Scots thing. We arrived there and they took us to this gorgeous suite with huge windows and I was about to thank them when they said the room was for my mom.
"They put me in a room I swear was the size of a broom closet.
"In the morning my mom asked if I'd been all right during the night. When I said I was fine, she asked why I had been knocking on the wall.
"I wasn't knocking but my mother tends to get visitations more than most people."
Joan might not share her mother's gift but she certainly has longevity in common. It's 54 years since, with her soaring soprano voice and guitar, she began captivating audiences.
Her debut was in a coffee bar called Club 47 in Cambridge, Massachusetts – and Joan had no thoughts of this being the start of something big.
She said: "What was going through my head was, 'Am I going to faint, throw up or sing.' I was so nervous."
As music became her passion, Joan dropped out of university after just a few weeks. That decision had an interesting impact upon her parents.
She said: "My mother couldn't care less. My dad was a bit different. He needed some approval and, as soon as I started to get a little bit written about in the press, he began to think that maybe it'd be all right."
Her progress from coffee bar venues was fast. In 1959, Joan appeared at the Newport Folk Festival in front of 13,000 people.
She said: "Until Newport, I thought 'knees shaking' was just an expression of speech. But my knees were banging together and I was hanging on to a railing as I tried to get myself on stage."
For years she had to fight crippling stage fright before every concert performance. Joan said: "It was terrible and it repeated itself, night after night. But I just kept on. I guess something in here knew it was worth it."
She has had big hits, such as The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, and played the biggest venues, such as Woodstock.
But throughout her dazzling career, Joan has used her fame to campaign for many important issues.
She battled against racism in the American south and, as a life-long pacifist, has protested against wars ranging from Vietnam and Cambodia to Iraq.
She has gone to jail for her beliefs and even put her life on the line.
When she was part of a peace delegation who went to north Vietnam, Joan was caught up in the horror of Hanoi being bombed by the US for 11 days.
She said: "I had to face danger in Hanoi because everyone was being blasted to hell in front of me.
"Sometimes I thought it was stupid that I didn't get how dangerous it was. But you probably function better like that."
Last year her campaigning was recognised when she was honoured by Amnesty International.
Apart from fighting for freedom, she has created a lifetime of glorious tunes.
With her beautiful soprano voice, I ask her if she has ever thought of marking her Scots roots with an album of Robert Burns songs.
Joan said: "I should have done it because I don't have that voice any more. I wish I did but, for every singer, there comes a moment when the vocal chords don't do necessarily all you want them to. I'm talking about the high notes."
But her latest album, Day After Tomorrow, suggests Joan's voice is still in great shape.
?Joan plays Glasgow Royal Concert Hall on February 29.

I caught the drying bug too. I used to do a lot of it and then got out of the habit, too bad because dried flowers are wonderful. So far I have bouquets of yarrow, statice, roses and hydrangeas...my lavender is just starting to bloom. I hang them on the doorknobs to dry and they add fragrance to the house.ReplyDelete
What a gorgeous blue, Jill! You were definitely born with a 'green thumb'! :)ReplyDelete

What a wonderful blog, full of pretty images!ReplyDelete
I love hydrangeas too. Can't wait to bring some bouquets inside.ReplyDelete
Oh wow....Great tips. This is such an inspiring post. I would love it if you would share this wonderful post at our WIW linky party. Hope you can join us!ReplyDelete
Stunning flowers. I just planted 3 new red hydranga this year and I am like a mother hen with them. Hoping for blooms next year and so excited to see what a red hydranga looks like in person.ReplyDelete

Hot (insane) mess . . .Shu Qi is the reason I started this movie, and finished watching it. She's got three rolls to play and I found watching her acting them to be the best part. This movie reminds me of those crazy late 80's and early 90's films. With awkward cinematography and so many story ideas that it just can't piece it together. The idea was interesting, just not executed well.Read more

"Polari," from the Italian "polare" ("to talk") is a coded language, originating in the UK and dating as far back as the 16th century. Overheard in outdoor markets, the theatre, fairgrounds, and circuses, it was appropriated by gay men to provide them with cover as well as with a way to assert personal and shared identities. It spread around the English-speaking world via the Royal Navy, the merchant marine, and cruise ships, adding and subverting many foreign-language words — like polari — along the way.
While Polari does not employ this jargon or probe its success as a mode of connection between gay men, the language of Barton's poems may be viewed as an effective tool for communicating a sense of history, politics, and aesthetics. Think of Polari as a cross-sectional scan of a living tree that reveals ring after ring of Barton's experience of language, with the new buds at the tips of its branches adding colour, movement, and ornament.
Most of these poems were written using set forms drawn from Robin Skelton's The Shapes of our Singing: A Comprehensive Guide of Verse Forms and Metres from Around the World (Spokane: Eastern Washington University Press, 2002). While the forms Barton has appropriated are not by themselves the vehicles of a particular sociolect or an anti-language, except, say, of poetry itself, he have nevertheless twisted them to follow the turns of his point of view and aesthetics.
When it comes to time, geography, and subject, Polari covers a lot of ground: from child memories to the frailties and deaths of ageing parents; from Queen Victoria's coronation to the first ascent of Everest; from the October Crisis to the trial of Omar Khadr. The titles of nine poems are borrowed from the Diagram Prize, an award given out by the UK magazine, The Bookseller, for the oddest book title of the year. The titles chosen — an example is "Highlights in the History of Concrete" — may sound frivolous, even absurd, but the poems are less or more so. The serious nature of their themes being at odds with their titles gives them an engaging tension, and will be read as signature of his particular brand of polari.
"In Polari, John Barton has plugged language into all sorts of power sources, exploring the intricacies of structure and design through the politics of identity. Whether he's writing about sex or marmalade-making, he stares down desire, delving into needs 'laid bare for each seductive watcher and the one he watches.' These are opulent, daring poems." — Barry Dempster
"In Polari, Barton weaves an impressive soundscape, clothing old bones — like the villanelle, sonnet, glosa, and many others — with fresh clobber. With all the refined heft of a queer life lived long in language, this book pumps with the vitality of sex, thought, and rhyme. Sometimes traditional, sometimes blue, sometimes zhooshy and new, this is poetry plated for pleasure." — Shane Rhodes
"John Barton's poetry swings with lyric intelligence and worldly brilliance, like a contemporary Auden. Polari is absolutely beguiling." — D.A. Powell

Celestine Redemptoristines
The habit is based on Venerable Maria Celeste's revelations from the Divine Redeemer, who wore red and blue
while on Earth.
The habit signifies the mortification of Jesus Christ. The deep red was to denote the infinite charity of God toward
the human race. The cincture was to be of the same color and material, and a symbol of the bond of love uniting all
in the Heart of Jesus.
The sky blue mantle was to remind them that their life and thoughts are to be raised above Earth and fixed on Heaven.
The homepage picture shows the original habit as given to Venerable Maria Celeste. The Celestine Redemptoristines
will wear this habit.

0:05 TimMc: TEttinger: Rodents have pretty mean bites, yeah.
0:06 oooh, and merry Christmas
0:06 I should go to bed.
0:06 justin_smith: I once got jumped by a squirrel
0:06 it lived in a warehouse were I worked, and was semi-tame
0:06 TEttinger: merry ratmas
0:06 sohail: thanks justin_smith, sente looks pretty good
0:06 justin_smith: sohail: it's been pretty easy to use
0:06 as long as you are OK with some core.async to hitch it all up, it works very nicely
0:11 TimMc: justin_smith: Raynes said he doesn't plan on deleting the site, or at least not the data. Phew. But it is going read-only.
0:12 justin_smith: ahh, I must have misread or misremembered
0:13 TimMc: I'm still backing up those pastes. :-P
0:24 justin_smith: TimMc: that's good - it would be cool to have it searchable by function too
0:25 TimMc: Search wouldn't cover the private pastes.
0:28 Grabbed 5303 unique pastes. ^_^
0:30 justin_smith: TimMc: sure, but you can't back up private pastes can you?
0:49 TEttinger: 5303 pastes eh? I'm compressing a large amount of PNG files again. it seems to be done with 736K files so far
0:49 2.3 GB processed
0:49 not even a third of the way done
1:02 kenrestivo: bikeshed time: this double assoc bothers me https://
1:03 double assoc-in anyway
1:03 justin_smith: kenrestivo: #(if % (inc %) 1) is (fnil inc 0)
1:03 kenrestivo: fnil, thanks!
1:03 justin_smith: ,((fnil inc 0) 1)
1:03 clojurebot: 2
1:04 kenrestivo: yeah, i remember it, i'd forgotten
1:04 justin_smith: ,((fnil inc 0) nil)
1:04 clojurebot: 1
1:06 kenrestivo: the double update-in still bothers me tho
1:06 justin_smith: kenrestivo: maybe something like (update k (comp #(merge % m) update) :count (fnil inc 0))
1:07 that's weird though
1:07 kenrestivo: it is awkward
1:07 but concise
1:07 meh, i guess my double thing is at least easier to read and reason about
1:07 justin_smith: and it nests the ops so the k doesn't get replaced twice
1:08 but yeah
1:08 kenrestivo: there's no rule that says you can't write a proper function for update
1:09 kenrestivo: true, then i could also eliminate the useless merge: in cases where count> 1, the m is the same
1:09 but my bikeshed limit is reached on this :)
1:10 i'm avoiding reading a bunch of javascript docs on react
1:10 justin_smith: hah
1:10 kenrestivo: it's funny, i have a bunch of clojure projects that i've dropped at the moment where i have to dive into some other language, because at that point is ceases being fun
1:11 justin_smith: where the clojure project made you need to dive into another language?
1:11 kenrestivo: every single one that deals with the real world :p
1:12 because the real world is made of java and javascript and css and c and such.
1:12 to answer your question, i've been messing around with reagent, which is pretty nice.
1:13 i've come up against a block with how props and such work, so i have to read react docs
1:13 TEttinger: kenrestivo: you need a lisp machine
1:13 kenrestivo: heheh, yeah, the computer museum here has a symbolics
1:14 TEttinger: there's a dude working on one that runs on a beaglebone black (small raspi-like ARM computer)
1:14 kenrestivo: cool. link?
1:14 TEttinger: no idea how far he is on it
1:14 kenrestivo: i have a beaglebone black sitting here
1:14 TEttinger: oh sweet
1:14 kenrestivo: they're great little embedded boards
1:16 justin_smith: I've got a beagle bone black around here somewhere
1:29 TEttinger: I have uh... a tronsmart MK908
1:30 ben_vulpes: kenrestivo: how did you come to be using props with reagent?
1:31 kenrestivo: i want to use :component-did-update, and that requires dealing with props
1:31 ben_vulpes: ah.
1:31 what's the story in the code side driving use of :component-did-update?
1:31 not that i don't believe that you need it, i'm just trying to peer down the road a bit and get out ahead of any leaky abstraction pain
1:51 kenrestivo: there are a few abstractions: props, lifecycle functions, atoms, and cursors.
1:52 i get atoms, i think i understand cursors, and the lifecycle functions are similar to other frameworks that have those. it's just props that have me confused.
1:58 :component-did-update seems to require props
1:59 i'll play around with it tomorrow. it's probably straightforward, i just haven't seen it explained yet.
2:40 ben_vulpes: i have no idea about cursors man
2:40 atoms are enough for me at the moment
2:49 tolstoy: component did update is for when the component gets new "state". You might want to do something as a consequence, perhaps directly to the dom, or drop something in a channel, or whatever. You get the old props and the new props. But "props" in OM is the basic state that triggers rendering. Something like that, anyway.
2:49 I do think it's an "opportunity" to re-think stuff.
2:50 ben_vulpes: tolstoy: so diddling props directly will also trigger a re-render?
2:51 tolstoy: Oh, I think I might have used it to update "component local state" based on changes.
2:51 ben_vulpes: I don't think so.
2:51 They're immutable.
2:51 ben_vulpes: kk
2:51 i'm avoiding component local state like the plague
2:51 tolstoy: But you can get the old and the new and compare the two.
2:51 ben_vulpes: how do you use that and still get interactive development?
2:52 tolstoy: Local state or component-did-update?
2:53 When I used local-state (om.prev) it was for forms, mostly. I didn't care if things got cleared out with Figwheel, or whatever.
2:57 ben_vulpes: local state
2:57 ah
2:57 yeah that drives me a bit batty
2:58 tolstoy: This app I have now, I just have a :form key in my app-state. When I switch to a form, I clear it. Then the component reconfigures it as necessary.
2:59 I never have more than one form at a time, so ... it feels like a register in assembly programming.
3:00 Feels kinda like a dynamic-var, but in a single-threaded, single-user app, it turns out to be far less spaghetti than anything else.
4:07 geirby: hey there. what is the best leiningen cljs template to start with? With figwheel and stuff?
4:08 ridcully_: the figwheel one
4:37 geirby: ridcully_ oh, ok, makes sense :) thanks
8:27 TimMc: justin_smith: I can back up private pastes because I have their URLs, but I wouldn't want to index them -- some of them probably came from privmsg sessions.
8:31 justin_smith: Maybe I misunderstand private pastes, though.
9:36 j-pb: how would you deal with a cyclic deftype dependency? declare doesn't seem to work
9:37 I have a deftype A which might return objects of deftype B. However, B holds a reference to A and I'd like to type-hint it.
10:39 justin_smith: j-pb: hint the protocol it implements, not the type
10:41 j-pb: justin_smith: you can't type hint protocols afaik
10:41 or you mean put the type into the protocol?
10:50 sohail: justin_smith: what's the difference between the websocket impl for sente and http-kit?
10:51 ah it's server-side only, I think.
10:54 justin_smith: sohail: sente uses http-kit's websockets
10:54 it's an abstraction
10:55 sohail: it's so straightforward
11:07 justin_smith: j-pb: sorry, still waking up. If you call the protocol methods that the deftype implements, you don't need type hints on those calls.
11:07 j-pb: justin_smith: yeah, that's a good point :)
11:07 justin_smith: j-pb: if you absolutely need to type hint usage of each type inside the other, use extend / extend-type to add the methods after both are in scope
11:08 j-pb: I don't really get sente
11:08 's api though
11:08 I'd either go with callback only or channel only, but it has this weird mix
11:08 justin_smith: j-pb: it gives you some handlers that set up the websocket / ajax fallback, and some channels that give you core.async messages, and functions to send to the other side
11:09 j-pb: you only need to use one - I never use the callbacks myself
11:09 (though I have code I could simplify if I used the callback feature...)
11:10 j-pb: justin_smith: sending is done though a funciton though
11:11 justin_smith: yes
11:11 j-pb: this could also be a channel
11:11 justin_smith: nothing stops you from implementing that channel
11:12 but really on a root level it needs to be a function, and has no need to be a channel, so it's a function
11:12 it's already async
11:44 sohail: Is there some reason why this lein configuration does not seem to use my handler? http://
11:45 weird thing is even if I include a typo in server.clj and type 'lein compile', I don't get any error messages which seems to be a symptom of something more messed up
11:45 justin_smith: sohail: why are you asking figwheel to run your handler?
11:46 sohail: justin_smith: I want to be able to debug the client and server in concert
11:46 so I just want one server running
11:46 justin_smith: OK, that might work, but I've never done it that way
11:47 I wouldn't be surprised if it worked perfectly; I also wouldn't be surprised if it didn't work at all
11:47 sohail: well... it's clearly NOT working :) how do you do it?
11:47 justin_smith: sohail: I start up a normal server, and let figwheel do its own thing
11:47 I don't need to debug the figwheel server
11:47 it's already a finished product
11:47 sohail: what about the cljs repl?
11:47 justin_smith: figwheel
11:48 sohail: what does your project.clj look like?
11:48 justin_smith: sohail: can't share it, sorry.
11:48 I start lein figwheel, I start my webserver, then I go to the page in the browser and my cljs code connects to the figwheel server
11:48 sohail: do you use emacs?
11:49 justin_smith: yes, but no repls inside emacs
11:49 sohail: ah that's probably it then
11:50 so you do lein figwheel in one window and lein ring server-headless (or whatever) in another
11:50 ?
11:50 noncom: sohail: i do just that
11:50 justin_smith: sohail: yes
11:50 noncom: never had to type anything into the figwheel repl really
11:50 justin_smith: sohail: in my case I run lein repl, and start the server inside the repl
11:50 sohail: but that sweet repl and code completion
11:51 noncom: i guess first you have to justify using figwheel repl?
11:51 an interesting topic for me, since i never found a use in it
11:51 so i'd like to know
11:51 if you do
11:51 sohail: the code completion works inside emacs
11:51 noncom: ah i see
11:51 i don't use it then
11:52 turneds out it was not essential
11:52 but of course, it's nice to have i guess..
11:52 justin_smith: sohail: I've never seen someone try to run their own handler from the figwheel process. Not that it can't be done, but I definitely have not seen it.
11:52 sohail: I've never actually used code completion before, but having eldoc work is helpful.
11:53 justin_smith: I was just reading the docs. I'm probably doing something wrong
12:01 justin_smith: FYI the "chestnut" runs both the web server and figwheel in the same repl
12:01 the chestnut template, just tested it and it worked. Now to understand it.
12:30 ah I see they use profiles to execute stuff in the repl to do the work. Works for me.
12:31 pigoz: hello I am kinda new to clojure and following the braveclojure book. I reimplemented assoc-in and update-in in the exercises. Do these look idiomatic enough? http://
12:33 justin_smith: pigoz: looks OK, though using update is sneaky :)
12:34 pigoz: you think it makes the exercise too easy?
12:38 justin_smith: pigoz: no, it's just funny because historically update-in was implemented first, and only later we got update
12:38 pigoz: of course using assoc instead of update would be simple
12:50 ,(let [days-of-christmas (range 12 0 -1) total-presents (reduce #(+ % (apply + %2)) 0 (take-while seq (iterate rest days-of-christmas)))] total-presents)
12:50 clojurebot: 364
14:10 troydm: I have some deftype, is it possible for it to implement CharSequence Java interface?
14:11 justin_smith: ,(deftype Dum [] CharSequence (charAt [_ _] \d))
14:11 clojurebot: sandbox.Dum
14:11 justin_smith: ,(.charAt (Dum.) 88)
14:11 clojurebot: \d
14:12 justin_smith: troydm: I guess if I was feeling less lazy I could have implemented the other three methods on the interface too
14:12 troydm: justin_smith: ic, that's what I was asking
14:12 justin_smith: thx
14:17 justin_smith: say I have (deftype A [a b c]) how do I access fields of that deftype outside of deftype method declaration?
14:18 justin_smith: ,(deftype T [a])
14:18 clojurebot: sandbox.T
14:18 justin_smith: ,(.a (T. 0))
14:18 clojurebot: 0
14:19 troydm: oh, with a dot just like java methods
14:19 justin_smith: ic, thx
14:19 justin_smith: troydm: in fact, it is a method
14:22 sohail: does sente detect client disconnects on the server? Say the user quits the browser without clicking "quit" or whatever. I'm sure it must, but I don't see it.
14:24 troydm: justin_smith: can you explain what is (charAt [_ _] \d) <- the [_ _] part? it has two arguments
14:24 justin_smith: every method takes the object as the first argument
14:24 j-pb: troydm: there is no implicit this as in java
14:25 troydm: justin_smith: ohh
14:25 justin_smith: ic, ic
14:32 amalloy: except in proxy, har har
14:34 troydm: strange I'm trying to access field of deftype using .fieldName and it says no matching field found
14:35 justin_smith: troydm: are you sure it's an instance of the same deftype? changing the deftype definition doesn't change old objects to the new type
14:35 troydm: justin_smith: yeah, also field is volatile
14:36 ^:volatile-mutable
14:36 also that deftype extends a Protocol
14:38 justin_smith: troydm: it's not mentioned in the docs but it makes sense - no accessor is generated if the field is not immutable
14:38 you are free to make an interface or protocol with a getA method
14:41 troydm: justin_smith: ah, ic, thx
14:43 justin_smith: troydm: so when do you use volatile fields? I'm scared of them because the vm is forced to synchronize every update with every thread
14:43 which feels like a heavy thing to be doing
14:44 troydm: justin_smith: err, well I didn't needed it to be volatile, just mutable only, so I had no idea actually how to make it only mutable
14:45 justin_smith: troydm: check out the docs for deftype " They are for experts only - if the semantics and implications of :volatile-mutable or :unsynchronized-mutable are not immediately apparent to you, you should not be using them."
14:45 troydm: the difference is that an unsynchronized-mutable can change without guaranteeing that the change is immediately visible in all threads
14:46 so on the one side you have to ensure that you aren't mutating from multiple threads, on the other every time you make a change you are slowing down every thread in the vm
14:46 troydm: justin_smith: well the thing I'm building won't be used in multiple threads simultaneously
14:47 justin_smith: then you could safely use an unsynchronized-mutable, and that will perform better, but the folks who wrote the doc string for deftype think you are in over your head
14:48 troydm: Java Concurrency in Practice is a good resource if you want to know how this stuff actually works. And it's scary. Immutability and queues become much more attractive after reading that book.
14:50 troydm: justin_smith: I've read it, and I know, thx for a hint
14:51 also when you write #"abc" does Clojure compile the regexp pattern or you need to explicitly compile it?
14:51 justin_smith: #"abc" returns a compiled regex
14:52 there is also re-compile if you want to do it by hand, or from a string generated at runtime
14:53 troydm: justin_smith: thx, ic
15:02 rhg135: re-pattern it's called
15:19 Bronsa: justin_smith: FYI deftype doesn't create getter methods, with (deftype A [foo]) (.foo (A. 1)) is the same as (.-foo (A. 1)) which is just a getfield call
15:19 with mutable fields those fields are private, that's why you can't access them
15:30 justin_smith: Bronsa: yeah, I knew it was a direct access and not a getter - I was suggesting with something mutable he would probably want a getter
15:31 Bronsa: but the private thing clarifies that, thanks
16:29 zacts: is Clojure from the Ground Up still good?
16:29 or what are the recommended resources for a complete Clojure newbie?
16:29 my main initial goal is to do Overtone music synth with Clojure
16:29 MJB47: i quite liked "the joy of clojure"
16:29 zacts: cool
16:29 MJB47: is this good for a complete newbie?
16:30 MJB47: yup, it assumed you know nothing about lisp
16:30 zacts: oh nice
16:30 perhaps I'll start there
16:30 pigoz: zacts: I am going through http://
16:31 zacts: pigoz: and you like it
16:31 pigoz: yes, the writing style is very fun and informal
16:31 good for my attention span :)
16:32 zacts: ok
16:32 cool
16:32 thanks!
16:34 perhaps I'll start with brave clojure to get a feel for the flavor of clojure, and then I'll progress to the Joy of Clojure
16:34 justin_smith: 4clojure.com is good for exercises
16:34 zacts: oh cool
16:38 pigoz: justin_smith: oh looks a like a great resource, thanks!
16:39 Seylerius: This is fun: the generated documentation for play-clj has some broken CSS causing the text to fail to render in Firefox, Chromium and Conkeror.
16:41 justin_smith: oops!
16:41 should be an easy pr, right?
16:45 Seylerius: Yep. Just need to figure out what they're using for docs and what broke it.
17:20 sohail: Do you have to do anything special to compile cljc besides add it to :source-paths?
17:20 justin_smith: no
17:20 the clojure and cljs compilers use it like they would any other file
17:21 sohail: I thought so, thanks.
17:26 TEttinger: cfleming: thanks for making open source development with cursive still possible on a nonexistent budget!
17:26 this is the best rosh hashanah ever
17:48 Seylerius: justin_smith: Turned out to be a failure of font failover.
17:56 justin_smith: Seylerius: so it just gives you nothing, instead of a default font?
19:38 BRODUS: say i wanted to model digital logic using core async, would a 'mult' be the right thing to use for a clock signal
19:38 stain: BRODUS: hmmm...
19:39 but you would need to make sure the clocks synced up in the other end?
19:39 send (tick,signal) in the channel?
19:40 otherwise the complexity of your modelling function would falsely add delays
19:43 but yes, I think a mult would work.. but you would either have to collect all the final channels before you tick the clock signal again (e.g. what you feed into the mult) or do as I say.. which would make your simulation asynchronous (you would probably still want to wait up if the delay is too big)
19:45 sorry, this is late.. the blocking from the synchronous nature of mult might be enough for your purposes
19:45 as you wouldn't be able to do the next tick before it's all gone through
19:45 BRODUS: its ok, thats what i was thinking
19:46 stain: I'm just thinking that in a digital logic circuit you would do a lot of gates meeting up again, and then you don't want any one of those to do a off-by-one for whatever reason
19:46 e.g. an exception
19:47 so I would want to basically do a dot product when you meet up so that you match on the clock tick (I guess any delay in the digital logic circuit would be part of the modelling)
19:47 BRODUS: well i dont think it would work if you had a clocked gate that depended on other clocked gates
19:48 stain: right, it could deadlock very easily, you can only do it with a single system clock (real time clock)
19:48 and then base any frequency generators etc. of that one
19:49 BRODUS: i dont follow what you mean with the dot product
19:49 stain: oh.. if you pass (n,signal) then you need to match on n (e.g. the simulated system time tick)
19:50 so you don't accidentally get offset

Wall Street and major European stocks ended in mixed territory on Monday amid a busy weak of US corporate earnings.
Meanwhile, the dollar continued to weaken on receding expectations that the US central bank will raise interest rates again in 2017.
In New York, the tech-heavy Nasdaq had another record finish, driven up 0.4 percent in anticipation of Monday's earnings report from Google-parent Alphabet.
The internet giant added 0.5 percent but fell after hours as the company said last month's $2.7 billion European anti-trust fine had taken a bite out of quarterly profits.
Meanwhile, the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average and broader S&P 500 were dragged lower by pharmaceutical giant Johnson & Johnson, which suffered on news of competition for a rheumatoid arthritis drug.
The Dow fell 0.3 percent and the S&P lost 0.1 percent.
After months of rallying, Wall Street equities are expensive, leaving investors looking to earnings to justify high corporate valuations.
"The companies are delivering on the earnings but investors and expecting more," Jack Ablin of BMO Private Bank told AFP.
Elsewhere, London stocks were hit by airline sector turbulence and Frankfurt skidded lower on worries over collusion by carmakers.
London's FTSE 100 index ended the day down 1.0 percent, with air carriers bearing the brunt after Ireland's low-cost Ryanair posted soaring first-quarter profits but hinted at a price war.
- High hopes for the euro -
The euro retreated from a near two-year high against the US dollar ahead of this week's meeting of the Federal Reserve, which is expected to announce Wednesday it is leaving benchmark American interest rates untouched.
The single currency has extended last week's rally against the greenback after European Central Bank boss Mario Draghi said policymakers would address its vast stimulus program in the autumn, fueling speculation they would start winding it in.
"The euro is generally being boosted by the belief that the ECB will announce tapering before the end of the year," Oanda analyst Craig Erlam told AFP.
"While the Fed has openly been on a tightening path, the recent commentary has suggested the pace could slow."
While the strong euro hurts Eurozone exporters, French stocks managed a 0.2 percent gain on the day, mainly due to a survey on private sector business activity showing a pickup in manufacturing.
Frankfurt stocks were hit by worries that German carmakers could face huge fines if allegations they colluded illegally for decades prove true.
Major Asian stocks were mixed, with the Nikkei and Hang Seng adding 0.6 and 0.5 percent, respectively, while Shanghai fell 0.4 percent.

When the latest Bond film came out I debated about seeing it vs not seeing it at the cinema. Then half term came along and since I wasn't going out any evening I thought about seeing it on Tuesday, which is the cheap night in the local cinema. But then I realised it was half term and it only just came out the previous Friday, so I'd be better off waiting until this week. Except this week there is tennis. From next week everything starts back up again and work looks like being too busy to do anything other than work and sleep until mid-December, so staying out late at the cinema doesn't fit with that. So I'll wait until it's out on DVD, like most films, and justify my Blockbuster DVD rental subscription.
The reason I can't get that excited about Bond is because the last two have been a bit grumpy and real worldy, when what I really want is OTT and baddies destroying the world, possibly with the aid of a cat. Plus the current films do have Daniel Craig in them, which is never going to help (I can't work out how anyone could possibly think he's handsome). Also, I've recently watched action films (well, half an hour of) that other people loved and they bored me to tears. So I'm not really in the mood for an action film.

What would you like to tell readers about yourself?
* I was raised pretty much the same as everyone else... devoted mother, strict father and all the imaginary friends I could conjure. Not that I wasn't friendly, I just wasn't "people orientated". Maybe I lived in my head way more than I should have, maybe not. I liked machines more than people, at least I did until I met my wife.
* The first thing I can remember writing was for her. For the life of me I can't remember what it was about... something about dust bunnies under the bed and monsters in my closet. It must have been pretty good because she married me shortly after that. I spent a good number of years after inventing games and prototypes for a variety of ideas before I got back to writing.
* It wasn't a deliberate conscious thought it was more of a stepping stone. My wife and I had joined a dream interpret group and we were encouraged to write down our dreams as they occurred. "Be as detailed as you can," we were told.
* I was thrilled. If there is one thing I enjoy it's making people believe me and I like to exaggerate. Not a big exaggeration or an outright lie mine you, just a little step out of sync, just enough so you couldn't be sure if it were true or not. When I write, I always write with the effort of "it could happen" very much in mind and nothing, I guarantee you, nothing, makes me happier.
* "Here, Audry," I said, getting to my feet.
* Roger did the same.
* By the time we made it to the front yard the police were driving away.
* Jessica and Audry approached us, each slipping an arm around Roger and me.
* "Jessica, Audry. I..." Roger stammered before he broke down into tears.
* Arm in arm we went into the house.
* "Come over here, all of you," Roger said, rushing into the living room. Opening the wall cabinet that held his computer, he flipped it on. "Let me show you. I have proof."
* The girls moved, one to each side of him and I in the center, just far enough not to interfere. The monitor hummed to life.
* Audry silently wiped tears from her face and held my hand tightly.
* Roger opened file after file until reaching one called 'Katoy.'
* Excitedly, he got up, knocking over his chair, and rushed to turn on the stereo. He adjusted it, making it a little louder than usual before righting the chair, retaking his place.
* "You must promise never to speak of this outside of these four walls," he said, covering the screen with his left hand.
* We looked at each other and vowed our oath of silence.
* "Ok, Bob," Roger said and a new image jumped to the screen.
* "Bob is your computer?" I asked a little bewildered.
* "Yeah. Cool huh?" he said, grinning, half turning to me. "I have him hooked up all over the house."

Areas Targeted for Development
Trumbull Corporate Park
Fairfield Metro Station
Bridgeport Development Cooridor
Stratford Transit Center Development
Implementing TOD concepts recommended in the plans developed by this project will require changes to existing zoning regulation.
Under this task the MetroCog will research existing regulations developed and adopted by similar sized municipalities and develop model ordinances that can be adopted by the city of Bridgeport and town of Stratford as well as the other communities of the Greater Bridgeport Planning Region.
A review of existing plans of conservation and development will be undertaken to ensure that any proposed regulations will be consistent and compatible with the goals and objectives of the POCDs.
The MetroCog will assess different types of zoning mechanisms, including the appropriateness of overlay zones and planned development districts, to effectuate a desired land use change that supports transit oriented development.
The new regulations will be based on key principles relating to densities, parking, high quality design, mixed-use activities, connections, preservation and sustainability. Specific tasks include:

I try not to read too many spoilers about The Force Awakens because I want to be surprised by the story just like anyone else. However in a couple of recent posts/interviews people have alluded to the possible death of one of the original characters.
Before I go any further I am going to do the ole' SPOILERS warning. If you have read any of the books from the expanded universe then I won't unveil anything new (and I am referring specifically to Vector Prime). Also, if you don't want to hear the rumors going around about the upcoming movie, you may want to stop as well.
Continuing on …
If you are familiar with any of the Star Wars lore then you know the reason Chewbacca is always by Han's side is he owes Han a life debt. At some point in the past Han saves Chewie's life and therefore Chewie will remain by his side to fulfill said debt. I don't recall anywhere else in the canon that suggests Chewie has ever fulfilled his life debt but its probably safe to assume he has not. Which brings us to Vector Prime. Vector Prime takes place several years after ROTJ and Han and Leia are married with three kids (Jaina, Jacen and Anakin). I don't know the specifics as I haven't read Vector Prime (yet) but I do know that Chewie fulfills his life debt by giving his own life to save Hans' kid(s).
So that's the lore as it stands today. (Btw, all books published using the Star Wars name and characters must be approved by George Lucas.)
In recent plot discussions about The Force Awakens, there have been statements that allude to the fact that either Han or Chewie die and the popular rumor is that it's Han. At the risk of sounding like a nerd raging fanboy, this is NOT in line with the expanded universe. It doesn't matter which one of them dies (assuming the rumor is true), neither are supposed to die before Han and Leia's kids are born. When we deviate from the widely known canon we start to look as inconsistent as Star Trek!
Yes, I went there! I just compared Star Wars to Star Trek! Granted Star Trek couldn't keep its story/timeline straight through all the television series and movies whereas we are comparing movies to books. You cannot use the old [Star Trek] cliché that the books are an "alternative universe or timeline" because that is WEAK! You cannot expect us nerdier Star Wars fans to read the books outside the context of the movies because, in our mind's eye, that's our sole basis for comparison.
After all, it is those of us that are the mega-Star-Wars-Universe-nerds that can look past the plot and acting flaws of the prequels (or Phantom Menace at the minimum). So, just like a losing wookie, it would also be unwise to piss us off.
