Other Ten Percent 2/21/13
When the aliens first read Conor Friedersdorf's proposal to give president Obama the power to kill with his mind they were somewhat confused as to why he'd need it. Earth was facing a rapid shift in its climate, few could agree on how to direct and control the rapid pace of technological development, and worst of all most of its major forms of government were grinding to a halt as people exploited fundamental imbalances of power inherent in democratic and representative systems of government. In short, Earth was stepping up to a confluence of events that killed 99% of intelligent civilizations in galactic history and so the obsession with religious conflict seemed odd to say the least.
Stil, like any caring beings witnessing such an event the aliens wanted to do what they could to help. So, when they intercepted digital information that told them that most Americans would support granting Obama telekinetic assassination skills they decided to grant Barack Obama telekinetic assassination skills. It was, as best they understood the issue, a way to help.
They appeared to him while he slept; slipping past the White House's defenses and appearing in his bedroom while the First Lady was out of Washington. President Obama is an unusually rational man who, when confronted by aliens in the dead of night who tell him he can kill anyone he wishes with his mind, is more likely to believe he's had an especially vivid nightmare than that he's been gifted with extraordinary powers. Some part of him however couldn't help but try at his morning security briefing. When shown a live image of a mid-level terrorist in Afghanistan who had authorized attacks on Americans abroad he stared at the screen, thought about it, and made the man fall over dead.
The President immediately ordered most of the junior staff members out of the room for fear of what they would think. He hesitantly, but thoroughly, explained to the Joint Chiefs of Staff about the dream he'd had last night. He assured them that he remained skeptical, but asked that another high-priority target with confirmed kills be brought to him with a live video feed. Within an hour he had yet another video, concentrated yet again, and yet again saw a terrorist fall to the ground dead.
At 10:32 A.M. the president arrived at George Washington University Hospital for treatment.
Two hours later, after the most most advanced medical imagery tests known to man the staff at the hospital declared there was nothing unusual in any of the president's medical scans. Yet, by the end of the day the president was able to kill another 3 confirmed terrorists and so, slowly, uncomfortably, the military came to believe that the president now had the power to instantly kill any target they could get a visual of on the face of the earth.
It took a few days for them to gather a coherent strategy around the president's ability to kill any enemy of the country he could look at on a television screen but, in their defense, it only took them a few days to gather a coherent strategy around the president's ability to kill any enemy of the country he could look at on a television screen. Rapidly, two separate schools developed. The first and most popular felt that with the new ability to target opponents with no collateral damage the wisest move was to try and keep the president's new powers secret for as long as possible. After all, the less the terrorists knew of their remarkable new power to destroy enemies in even crowded areas without any collateral damage the longer they could use their newfound tactical powers with no problem.
But a second group also emerged that felt that the need for secrecy was now a detriment to national security. Testing had shown that it took the president only two minutes to kill a target and by the country's best estimates there were barely 400 Al-Qaeda members in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Given those numbers the wisest strategy, at least according to the second group, was to go public with their new powers and strike all at once. Killing as many officials as possible with their newfound ability before the enemy could react was the most militarily and politically advantageous move.
The best point the more conservative branches of the pentagon at the CIA could make was that the public would likely, and rightly, be alarmed that there were in fact extra-terrestrial beings and that they could, without the knowledge of the US government, grant the president the ability to kill people with his mind. But, the president was largely sympathetic to the more open elements of the military and so a compromise was reached.
The president would organize a coordinated strike on as many terrorist officials as we were able to monitor at once and would explain to the public what we were now capable of. The actual mechanism for the attack however would be explained away as a new, highly advanced drone system capable of precision sniper shots from ten to fifteen thousand feet.
So, barely two weeks after the president was visited by extra-terrestrials, the president killed every major official we had eyes on in the length of his usual security briefing. Within a week every terrorist official of any note in Afghanistan or Pakistan was dead.
Of course, the new system drew a great deal of criticism. You don't kill over 100 people in a week without somebody taking you to task. But, among the more experienced members of the Washington press corps, an even more disturbing trend was taking place. They were asking questions about how and not just why.
With most of the high-value targets eliminated in one week the president's daily kill-list dropped back down to the single digits which led to a certain laxity in keeping Obama's powers secret. Eventually the truth came to light. Memos and mid-level sources within the Pentagon revealed that the president could kill terrorists with his mind. While the press found that hard to believe the evidence was soon so overwhelming that they went to print with their reports anyway.
An initial wave of denials from the military followed. When the news didn't die down the White House felt the best move was to simply come out with the truth. While the public panicked over the news that aliens were real and panicked even more that they could grant the president psychic assassination skills with no real difficulty, they were, on the whole, supportive of the operations themselves. The president was defeating our enemies and he was killing less people while doing it.
To be sure the program had its opponents. Newsweek ran a cover asking if Obama was our first mass-murdering president. Slate meanwhile had a continuing series on "Obama's Death Notes" based upon the Anime series with a shockingly similar premise. In general though, the war on terror continued much as it had for the last few years. The president's ability to eliminate confirmed targets with zero risk of collateral damage was indeed a powerful asset in the War on Terror but terror, seemingly, had failed to notice.
That's when the president noticed something remarkable. Due to the incredibly ambiguous language in Friersdorf's article he didn't even need a video feed to kill his target. After he was told a general description of a high value target our intelligence agencies were unable to locate by satellite (unable to even confirm the true name of in fact) the president found himself idly wondering about the terrorist in question. Suddenly, he had a very clear picture of the man's name and location and, after two minutes of concentration, was able to kill him. It took the CIA three days to confirm the kill but it seemed that the president's powers had expanded once again.
The discovery that the president could now effortlessly visualize the location and actions of every human being on Earth from just a general description raised any number of privacy concerns on the left. How long, The New Republic asked, until Obama turned these powers on American citizens? But it also raised a possibility for the War on Terror that hadn't really been considered since it began: winning it. Suddenly, the president had the power to end the life of every terrorist on Earth and he could do so without any of the concerns that had plagued his drone assassination program for years.
Gone were the concerns over the expansion of executive authority since the aliens had gifted only Obama with these abilities. Likewise, concerns that other governments might abuse the precedent were eliminated since the was no precedent, only a superpowered US president. Finally, now that terrorists were essentially unable to act in secret Obama was able to publicly explain each of his targets in a transparant manner with no risk to American troops, ending the secret tribunals that had caused so much controversy.
That didn't eliminate all objections of course; there were legitimate pacifist reactions against Obama killing our nation's enemies. Obama himself had to concede that, at least occasionally, killing a terrorist resulted in their friend or family member becoming a radical terrorist themselves. But, for the first time in human history, a superpower was able to kill its enemies with absolutely no risk of collateral damage so the public overwhelmingly supported the president's actions.
Soon however the sheer scale of the problem began to overwhelm the administration. Rough estimates of the total number of terrorists on Earth varied anywhere from 300,000 to 1.1 million. Given that it took the president two minutes to kill each terrorist, ending terrorism might take every remaining moment of Obama's administration. As the musical Rent taught us in what may be its only lasting contribution to society there are 525,600 minutes in a year, and Obama planned to use as many of them as possible to fight terrorism.
After a meeting with leading constitutional scholars along with several members of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Obama decided to try and exploit a loophole in the powers granted to him by the aliens. He had been told that his powers expired at the end of his administration but he gambled that abdicating the day to day responsibilities of the presidency to Joe Biden using Section 3 of the 25th amendment would not technically end his term. It turns out he was right and Obama dedicated his life, full time, to concentrating on enemies of the United States and murdering them with his mind.
Obama managed to identify and kill almost 100,000 terrorists before they all decided to attempt to wait out his presidency. He was able to identify a few more confirmed targets despite their lack of identifiable terrorist activity thanks to worldwide intelligence reports. Still, killing every open terrorist on Earth took him only six months.
His task completed for the moment and his legacy assured Obama faced a radically changed global landscape where world leaders now sought to prevent the reemergence of terrorism rather than minimize its threat and, increasingly, viewed Barack Obama himself as the greatest threat to global security. But Obama shocked the world once again. Mentally broken by six straight months of killing people with his mind Obama resigned his term of office, formally making Joe Biden the actual, rather than acting, president of the United States and destroying the mental gifts he was granted by extra-terrestrials. While it didn't totally destroy terrorism on Earth it struck a blow from which most modern terrorist organizations would never recover.
In his remaining days Obama and his family retire to Hawaii but Michelle comments privately that she thinks she'll never get her real husband back. Sasha Obama eventually writes a memoir, My Two Fathers, about how the experience of killing so many men (undeniably evil though they may have been) irrevocably changed Barack.
And, somewhere in Venice, California, Conor Friedersdorf feels like an idiot.
– – – – –
I got bored tonight and this article pissed me off so this is what I wrote instead of OTP. There are any number of legitimate arguments against Obama's program to kill people via UAV using secret tribunals. If somebody wanted to yell at me that the program was wrong and should stop I'd have basically no way to disagree with them. As a result though the continued existence of articles that seem to argue that the fact that drones kill less people is somehow a huge sin rather than the main feature of the program drives me crazy. We should be having a grand debate about executive authority and secrecy in this country instead of having commentators show off their skills in ethical philosophy by trying to argue that less death is worse than more death when it isn't traditional warfare. The fact that giving the president superpowers has jack shit to do with any of that makes me even madder and made me go off on this article in particular. Should we be mad the president has the power to fly thanks to Air Force One or that he has X-Ray vision with a simple visit to the doctor's office?
All the numbers in here are ballparked but I think they're the right order of magnitude. I gave sources where I could and where I couldn't you should assume I averaged a few sources or just made shit up. I'm not a columnist on terrorism anywhere and if you think I made a huge mistake I probably did. Given that I had less than 5 hours to research a story about the President gaining psychic powers I don't think that's that bad. We'll see if I still enjoy this tomorrow or just decide I was insane to write this in the first place.
My apologies for all the spelling and gramatical mistakes that are probably in here. I finished this barely an hour before I needed to send it out so God knows how many titles and documents vital to United States history I incorrectly and inconsistently capitalized. My sins against the comma are, as always, innumerable. If anybody ever gives a fuck about this I promise I'll clean it up.

Carrying on my thoughts and feelings towards the PKSB initial assessment, which I am completing as I wait for my registration to Chartership to go through. This covers sections 4-8 of Professional Expertise. I have previously blogged about Ethics and Values and Parts 1-3.
Well, this doesn't get any less intense does it? I am currently jumping between feeling hugely positive about my contribution to librarianship (parts 7 and 8) and utterly desperate about the gaps in my knowledge and experience (all of part 5 and most of part 6). Although I am trying to remember that it is normal not to have done everything, or have knowledge of everything, especially at this stage of my career, it is easy to become disheartened. I have started to think about how I can incorporate the things I need more experience of into my day-to-day job as well. I really am lucky in this in that I have a very very supportive manager, who is really pulling some strings to make sure I can do things like look at metadata and authority files, and join different task groups such as those dealing with procurement and digital literacy, which I have not done so previously before in great detail. I cannot imagine how difficult this process would be if you didn't have the support of your employer, or were even more restricted in your job role than I can be.
Some of my thoughts towards the document-the wording needs to be clearer. This may be the fault of the current propensity towards using buzzwords like 'accessibility' to mean various different things, but a more clearer explanation of context would have been useful at 6.4. In my world accessibility can either mean in the context of being open access, being easy to access (ie positive UX of the database), or to mean that it is available in different formats, such as audio, text-to-speech, large print, yellow paper, or braille.
My second major thought (and this may be sliiiiightly controversial) is this: if this standard is how a well-rounded information professional should be evaluated, then why isn't this skills base more fully reflected within the CILIP accreditation of a qualification? This slim document seems so much most thorough and with a much wider scope than the syllabus for the PG Dip component of my qualification, which was more theory-based than requiring reflection of practical experience, which is surely much more applicable to a job that requires such a hands-on way of working as librarianship. It is almost as though the MSc breeds academics, not working librarians. That is fine, if that's what you want to do, but I wanted to be a librarian, I needed the qualification to be one, and so became an academic by default. Why doesn't CILIP make it so the Chartership becomes the equivalent of the MSc, or only verify University programmes that are compatible with the whole of the PKSB? I in no way regret doing my MSc, I loved it, got an awful lot out of it, and was proud of myself at the end, but it just feels like I am going to learn much more about how to be a librarian from doing the Chartership, and I haven't even started that.
My last thought as I finish the Professional Expertise section is that I am really going to have to look at managing my time, both at work and at home. At work I tend to get involved in projects that I am interested in, at the moment for example I'm planning a research project on UX within our libraries, having discovered UX at CILIP's New Professionals Day and fallen in love with ethnographic research. This does cover parts of the PKSB, but not really the parts I need to develop. However, it is a worthwhile project for my workplace and I don't want it to take second place to evaluating and editing our indexing authority file, which is definitely a massive gap for me and something I really need to hone up on, and also another massive, massive job. Being able to priorities and juggle many large projects at once is a skill, important to my job, and something I think I will definitely take away from Chartership.

Steps to Reproduce:
0. text mode install of RHEL; see also bug #612611
1. yum install nss-pam-pdapd libpst
2. crash happens
Actual results:

Additional info:
following install worked fine;
there's no log writing around the time of the failure;
the system seems otherwise stable and nothing out of the ordinary.
doubt it's python, but david has all the magic scripts to work out whose fault it is :).
Thanks for filing this bug.
Do you have a core dump of the python process (yum)?
Do you have a list of packages that were installed? (ideally from when the yum command began) Otherwise, what's the output of "rpm -qa" ?
How far did "yum" get before the error? Was there any more output beforehand?
I'm guessing this is an x86_64 machine (from the 64-bit address cited in comment #0, and from bug 612611) - is that correct?

logfiles from machine where yum is misbehaving
here is the entire /var/log directory; included are the anaconda.yum.log and the yum.log files which should answer your about which packages were installed. I don't think there's much more apart from package databases etc.
Thanks for providing the log files.
Unfortunately, without a coredump it's going to be very hard to track this down.
Based on the error message, there's been some kind of corruption of the heap.
The error in comment #0: "malloc(): memory corruption" is emitted by line 4396 of malloc.c within the implementation of "malloc" whilst scanning through recently freed chunks of memory: one of the chunks has a corrupt-looking value for its size field.
The error in comment #4: "malloc(): smallbin double linked list corrupted:" is emitted by line 4341 of malloc.c, again within the implementation of "malloc": again, a bookkeeping field within a free chunk of memory has become corrupt.
So in both cases the bookkeeping fields that lurk between chunks of memory are getting corrupt. This could indicate a dynamically-allocated block of memory being used after being freed, or a write beyond the bounds of a block of memory, or various other things going wrong. It may be a reference counting issue: perhaps something is missing a Py_INCREF a PyObject* leading to the object being freed (however if that's the case, the object is likely to be actually allocated by the arena allocator, and that may contradict the size suggested by the smallbin message).
So there's likely a bug _somewhere_ in one of the DSOs within the python process that was running yum. Figuring out where the bug is is likely to be very difficult. The anaconda log you provided may give some clues as to the scope of the search.
This issue has been proposed when we are only considering blocker
issues in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. It has
been denied for the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.
** If you would still like this issue considered for the current
release, ask your support representative to file as a blocker on
your behalf. Otherwise ask that it be considered for the next
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. **
I noticed in the dmesg that this is a guest machine running on top of KVM:
e.g. this line:
Booting paravirtualized kernel on KVM
This makes me suspect that this is another duplicate of bug 607650 (a hypervisor bug).
Do you remember what version of the hypervisor where you running on?
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 607650 ***

Off on a US road trip (again)
After Boston we fly to Las Vegas where we shall be going to Viva Las Vegas, undoubtedly the biggest rockabilly festival in the world, for the fifth year running. Big names from the rock and roll era who are performing include Jerry Lee Lewis, Duane Eddy, Carl Mann, Narvel Felts, Hayden Thompson, the Eldorados, Norman Fox and Roddy Jackson, but there are dozens of other, younger acts, including the Stray Cats, our own Jackson Sloan, Big Sandy, Deke Dickerson, Lil Mo and the Dynaflos and Paul Ansell. And then there's the fabulous Burlesque Showcase which is a sight for sore eyes. The photo below shows Jerry Lee on his 'farewell' 80th birthday visit to the UK two years ago. at the London Palladium.
To say this is a pensioner's outing is a little insulting, but undoubtedly true. I will be the youngest of the four on tour and I turned 72 this week! We all believe in growing old disgracefully, but I hope that we won't get escorted from a hotel at gunpoint, as happened in Nashville a few years ago, or threatened with a hurricane, as we were in New Orleans last year. Let the good times roll, as they say down there. Keep on eye on regular reports on The Vinyl Word, with lots of photos following, probably when we get back.

#56 James Harden
The Rockets inked Harden to a contract extension in 2016 that kicks off next year and is worth $169 million over four years. The deal also added a combined $20 million to his salaries in 2016-17 and last season. Harden repaid the Rockets with the two best seasons of his career. He finished second in MVP voting in 2016-17 while becoming the first player to both score 2,000 points and assist on 2,000 points. Harden led the league in scoring this past season with 30.4 points per game and is widely expected to win the MVP trophy. Adidas made Harden one of the faces of its NBA campaign when it inked the point guard to a 13-year deal in 2005 that pays as much as $200 million, including royalties and bonuses. Harden's unique style and strong play have made him one of the NBA's most marketable players with more than a half-dozen partners like Beats, Foot Locker, State Farm, Electronic Arts, Trolli and BodyArmor.

RememberingChristmas.com is all about a love of a holiday that has come to represent so much more than just a religious holiday, but a time for family and friends come together and share a special time together at least once a year.
As a family that has worked in various forms of retail since our earliest years (Sean started working at age 8 off-and-on in retail, and was responsible for some purchasing by age 11), it has been hard some times for us to maintain the Christmas spirit during that specific time of the year. As a family, we long ago decided to celebrate Christmas through out the year with at least one Christmas tree up on our house at all times. We decided that perhaps we weren't the only people in a similar situation, so we decided to help others keep Christmas in their hearts through out the year … without having to have a tree up all year long. (Have you ever tried ducting a Christmas tree? Not easy!)
So, won't you join us? We are dedicated to bringing you stories of Christmas, free Christmas entertainment, recipes, crafting ideas and a lot more.

social impacts on crime reporting as itis involved in crime prevention.
For example:a. East African Communities: The tribal elders handle these

their country.b. Hispanic Communities: There may be a lack of reporting
due to fear of retaliation or immigration status.c. African-American
Communities: There may be a lack of reporting due to fear of reprisal
within their own community, perceptions of past injustices portrayed by
lawenforcement, and a communicated distrust for governmental entities.d.
Southeast Asian Communities: The family elders handle such issues.
Theremay be a lack of reporting due to language barriers with elders.
Youth have taken overdue to language assimilation.e. Eastern European
Communities: With corruption in their home country, it isoften expected

Thanks Rollie. In the busy time right now I wasn't even sure the order had been completed. I got an odd email about rejection of my credit card, but no reference as to the supplier.

Giant Douche Awards
hmmm… this is a tough one, folks. I think we may have a tie here.
Contestant #1:
White Camry #PNP 9805
I don't quite understand you, asshat #9805. Why, exactly, are you rolling through the intersection at the stoplight? Are you truly in THAT much of a hurry to do your 35mph in the 55 zone? I realize it was raining… but if you were soooo damn scared of the water, why were you speeding up to 45 to kiss that dude's bumper? I take it you like giving rim jobs? Sucking tailpipe is so alluring that you can't help yourself? Do us all a fucking favour, douche… Drive yourself off a fucking bridge. You're only good for one thing: making us less irritated with driving behind someone doing 45 in a 55.
Contestant #2:
White Camry #PYC 3097
I understand. You seriously were worried that I might actually get to merge onto the highway before my lane ran out… AND THAT MUST NOT HAPPEN. So thanks. I really enjoyed you speeding up all the way to 80 (in the pouring rain, in a 65 zone) with me, AND slowing down to 35 with me. That was super extra nice of you. Awesome! I like that you tried to be sure I would hit that guardrail coming up… because I'm not so sure I would have been able to do it without your help. Besides, I realize that really you wanted me to come to a dead stop and let you finally pass oh so slowly before I moved over. The other guy was terribly annoying… but you… you tried to actually KILL me. So, for that… You win, mister 3097. The douchey crown is yours!

Banks are officially required to report their Net Stable Funding Ratios (NSFR) to the Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency (BRSA) to disclose their net stable funding profiles on both consolidated and nonconsolidated basis. The NSFR approach aims to minimize the systemic risk that may arise from bank's potential failure triggered by the melt down of its liquidity position caused by bank's regular funding structure.

During the months of January and February, Felix Ortiz and Sara Bonet travelled to Chile where they visited different cities with the goal of working with leaders and young people. It was the first time that Felix and Sara had done ministry in this country. According to Felix, the really enjoyed their time and it was a great blessing. Below we are able to learn more about the trip, narrated by Felix himself:
Our first stop in the country was Vallenar, in the north, in the Atacama Desert. There we worked with an NGO called Filadelfia that, among other activities, works with boys and girls at-risk. We had the opportunity to lead a training time at their camp in mid-January. The work that this organization does is very important and they are doing a great work and having a great impact among young people in the area.
Our next stop was in Valparaiso/Quilpué where we participated in CIMA/FACTOR X, a national missions conference whose objective was to motivate young people to missions, short-term and long-term. The enphasis was not just in missions to other countries but also in the mission here and now, that is to say, in our own countries and our own little worlds.
Our last stop was in Chile´s capital, Santiago. There were worked with "Especialidades Junveniles" (Youth Specialties) and shared a seminar with youth leaders about working with post-modern youth.

Downloading Pictures From Instagram
The best ways to save images on Instagram
The Instagram app doesn't instantly enable you to save photos (or even to focus, for that matter). We've currently revealed you the best ways to focus on Instagram images with just the Android system, however saving Instagram images will certainly require an app.
1. download as well as install InstaSave via the switch below.
Download here
2. Open up the app and also sign in with your Instagram login information. Your stream will certainly be reproduced as selectable icons, just like in your Gallery app.
3. Locate the picture you intend to save (you can look for users with the Browse magnifying glass icon).
4. Touch the Save button on top right of the display-- which looks like a floppy.
5. You'll see the save location of the folder, which you could after that check out via your Gallery application.
Ways to save your own photos on Instagram
If, at one point, you turned off Instagram's auto-save function in a flurry of storage-saving madness, you might intend to turn that choice back on. If you have actually never ever poked around in the Instagram setups then you're possibly safe as well as the application is auto-saving your uploaded pictures to your device. However if you're not exactly sure, it does not hurt to check.
1. Open up Instagram and also go to your profile page at the far best.
2. Touch the overflow menu in the top right hand corner (the 3 dots).
3. Go down till you see the alternative for" save original photos" and also see to it the button is turned to the "On" placement.
4. You can do the exact same for your video clips as well if you like. They'll be saved in a folder in your Gallery app.
Ways to download your Instagram photos on PC
Say you have actually lost your phone as well as signed into Instagram on a new device. Perhaps you wish to download a duplicate of every one of your Instagram images to continue your brand-new phone? Or develop an archive on your computer system? That's simple as well, but you'll should do it on a computer rather than through your phone.
1. Go to the Instaport website on your computer.
2. Login with your Instagram qualifications.
3. Select whether you wish to download all images or just picked ones.
4. save the pictures to your computer.
5. If you desire them on your phone currently, connect your phone to your computer with a USB wire as well as copy the files to your phone.
6. save them in the Instagram folder in your Gallery/Photos (or anywhere you want to maintain them).
Do you save your Instagram photos? Did you understand you could download other peoples' photos?

Blogoversary Giveaway #3: Guardians of the Grimoire (Volume 1) by Natasha Slight
Thank you so much Natasha for donating! <3
Rumors have spread among the immortals of a book that controls all the magic in both the human and spirit worlds. So what is the Spirit Mother to do when Kaël, a corrupt spirit, attempts to steal the Grimoire from her temple?
With no other option, she instructs Gaïa, a benevolent spirit, to hide the Grimoire in the human realm and to train three young girls in becoming the new guardians. Kerani, Tiluvia, and Cesca are awakened to their destinies, and thrust into a perilous journey as they race to Gaïa's island. Accompanied by the Kal'rana sisters, the girls discover the magic that lies dormant within them. But fate plays a cruel twist on them, as their magical abilities are unleashed before they are ready, and disastrous consequences follow suit.
In a land shrouded in magic, and filled with as many friends as there are foes, will the girls be able to fulfill their destinies? Or will the balance of magic be thrown into chaos?
NATASHA SLIGHT has been an avid reader and collector of books for many years. As a stay-at-home mom she one day set out to write a story her children could read. The result of that trial is her debut novel GUARDIANS OF THE GRIMOIRE. Armed with a quirky sense of humor, Natasha writes to inspire, tap into the mind, and unleash the imagination within.a Rafflecopter giveaway

Forty years ago, Harriet Vanger disappeared from a family gathering on the island owned and inhabited by the powerful Vanger clan. Her body was never found, yet her uncle is convinced it was murder and that the killer is a member of his own tightly knit but dysfunctional family. He employs disgraced financial journalist Mikael Blomkvist and the tattooed, ruthless computer hacker Lisbeth Salander to investigate. When the pair link Harriet's disappearance to a number of grotesque murders from almost forty years ago, they begin to unravel a dark and appalling family history. But the Vanger's are a secretive clan, and Blomkvist and Salander are about to find out just how far they are prepared to go to protect themselves.

Cornacchia's algorithm
In computational number theory, Cornacchia's algorithm is an algorithm for solving the Diophantine equation , where and d and m are coprime. The algorithm was described in 1908 by Giuseppe Cornacchia.[1]
The algorithm[edit]
First, find any solution to (perhaps by using an algorithm listed here); if no such exist, there can be no primitive solution to the original equation. Without loss of generality, we can assume that r0 ≤ m/2 (if not, then replace r0 with m - r0, which will still be a root of -d). Then use the Euclidean algorithm to find , and so on; stop when . If is an integer, then the solution is ; otherwise there is no primitive solution.
To find non-primitive solutions (x, y) where gcd(x, y) = g ≠ 1, note that the existence of such a solution implies that g2 divides m (and equivalently, that if m is square-free, then all solutions are primitive). Thus the above algorithm can be used to search for a primitive solution (u, v) to u2 + dv2 = m/g2. If such a solution is found, then (gu, gv) will be a solution to the original equation.
Solve the equation . A square root of −6 (mod 103) is 32, and 103 ≡ 7 (mod 32); since and , there is a solution x = 7, y = 3.

Alaska Aboard the David B
If you need a short four-minute vacay, the video below contains highlights from one of our 8-day Alaska cruises where we had, beautiful weather, great hikes, saw amazing wildlife, and we got to visit Dawes glacier on a day where we were treated to some breathtaking calving.
We're taking reservations for 2019. Take 20% off on selected trips in Alaska through Feb 15, 2019. Join us – Special Deals on Cruises.
Alaska Fjords and Pack Creek Bear Vewing
People often ask when's the best time to cruise in Alaska. It's a hard question to answer. I happen to love all the trips we do because every trip is different. Here are some highlights from last year's mid-May Fjords and Bears cruise. It was great fun. We saw lots of different wildlife and had an amazing experience at Pack Creek with the folks from Pack Creek Bear Tours. – Christine

Drone footage of the David B docking in Bellingham
On our last day of the season, our boat neighbor had his drone out and got some nice footage of the David B coming home.
We're talking about bears on Facebook Live
We tried something new — Facebook Live!
Jeffrey and I thought it would be fun to see what it was like to do a Facebook Live Chat so we could talk about what we do on the David B, where we go, and to answer questions about what our trips are like. It turned out to be a blast. We were joined by lots of familiar people as well as new people. Not only did we get to talk about one of my favorite bear experiences from as summer, but we also got to answer questions about our trips and drinks with glacier ice.
Below is a link to our YouTube account that has the conversation. I hope you enjoy it and stay tuned for more Facebook Live Chats. And if you haven't had a chance to follow the David B on Facebook, here's a link.

Tin Hat Update – Putting on the Hat
We reached a major milestone in the Tin Hat Project this week, we put on the hat.
Early Tuesday morning just in time for sunrise we got underway. It was cold, sunny and beautiful on Bellingham Bay as we moved the David B from our slip in Squalicum Harbor to the Landings at Colony Wharf where a crane was ready to lift the Tin Hat from the shore and place it on the David B. Check out our latest video update to see us driving the David B as a convertible, the Tin Hat being lifted and set in place, and then heading back to our slip.
Thank you to Fluid Fabrication for a great job on the Tin Hat, and thank you to The Landings at Colony Wharf for a such an impressive move!
Now that The Hat is on, we have a lot of work to do to get it outfitted and ready to go for spring! We hope you'll keep following our progress and maybe even come along on a trip with us in Alaska, the Inside Passage or in the San Juan Islands this summer to experience for yourself the new and improved David B!
Tin Hat Project Update – Assembling the New Pilothouse
Well, it's been scheduled, the day is almost here, and so long as there aren't any unanticipated problems or bad weather, the Tin Hat will be lifted onto the David B next Tuesday, December 6th! We don't have an exact time yet, but first thing in the morning, we'll be driving the David B to Colony Wharf in Bellingham where the new pilothouse will waiting on a trailer and a crane will be ready to lift the house on to the boat.
If you're interested in watching,we'd love for you to come on down. If you do, park on Roeder Ave in the block between F street and C street or on C street by Hana Teriyaki and walk in since there is a lot of construction going on around Colony Wharf. It's pretty obvious where to go because there's really only one big crane in the area. Feel free to email me if you need directions.
As the off-season moves along, I'm getting really excited for our upcoming cruises this summer. I can't wait to see people on the boat relaxing in the saloon or watching whales outside under covered decks. It's going to be amazing! Be sure to send Sarah an email or give her a call at 877-670-7863 if you are interested in any of our Alaska, Inside Passage, or San Juan Islands trips this summer or beyond. 2017 is going to be the best year ever!
Tin Hat Update – Welding, Windows and More
This week saw lots of progress on the Tin Hat Project. We stopped in at Fluid Fabrication to see how things were taking shape. They'd begun assembling the framework for the front of the pilothouse. It was the first time we got to see the curving lines of the new house for real. We're not sure exactly how long it will take them to finish welding, but my feeling is soon. Maybe just a couple more weeks until we can bring the boat over and have the house put on.
While the welders have been busy, Jeffrey, Tim, and Greg have continued on all of their projects. Jeffrey's work on the refrigeration system is shaping up nicely, and Tim's been steadily preparing the boat so we can quickly and efficiently install all the systems in the new pilothouse. Greg's been turning out windows and doors all week. Our good friends Pete and Jackie graciously loaned us the use of their garage to set up a varnish shop, and with the help of their daughter Naomi, I got started on the bright work. I also put together a little video for you to enjoy…
The ice mountain is well disposed toward you
There's often a cold breeze blowing off the glacier when we arrive to admire it's icy blue front. Wind that can make July feel like January. It plays games with my seasonal clock. I remember one time while watching Dawes glacier, a guest told me he was going to go river rafting in a week when he got home. I gave him a quizzical look. It took me a moment to remember that it was July, and the rest of the North America was enjoying water slides and shaved ice, not icebergs sliding into sea water.
Visiting a tidewater glacier in Alaska is pilgrimage. You go observe something bigger than yourself in nature. It's something you need do. For us, getting to the glacier is part of the journey. It's more than just checking it off as a bucket-list item. On the David B, we are tuned into the rhythm of the glacier and the ebb and flow of the tide as it carries discarded icebergs up and down the fjord. We watch the glacier's ever-changing snout and it's mood. We're aware that the glacier sometimes makes us work hard for our visit by packing the fjord densely with ice shed from its towering face. Sometimes its bergs are enormous – big like a building. Sometimes they are small – like a basketball. Some are white, some are blue, some have dirt and rocks riding along. Some have seals nursing their young. Some are clear and difficult to see. (We call those sneakers.)
Iceberg sizes have official names too. Most of the ice we see in Endicott Arm or Tracy Arm are growlers, less than 1 meter above the water and and less than 5 meters long. We also see lots bergie bits that are up to 4 meters above the water and and 14 meters long. The small and medium
icebergs, which range in size from 15 meters high to 45 meters high are often floating at the entrance to the fjords. The large and very large icebergs, which top out at over 75 meters high are rare.
Picking our way though the ice is always a challenge, and depending on the mood of the glacier, it can make for a long day. When we travel to a tidewater glacier, we always have two hopes. The first one is that the ice in the fjord will be light and the work of getting there will be easy. The second hope is that when we arrive, the glacier will awaken, and as Captain Tyeen said to John Muir in 1880, when they first saw Dawes Glacier, "The ice mountain is well disposed toward you. He is firing his big guns to welcome you."
This past year we had several good visits to Dawes glacier, the ice was light and the glacier did fire its "big guns," but one day stood out. It was a cool day with a strong wind coming off the glacier. Travel was relatively easy. Jeffrey piloted the David B to about 400 meters from Dawes's formidable blue-white front. The feeling is always the same for me. I feel really small when I'm face to face with Dawes, which towers like a wide-angle skyscraper. At 400 meters, the wind, as if laughing at our smallness, pushed us back away from icy Dawes. We were the only boat there. Jeffrey re-positioned the David B several times, and each time we faced the glacier again. Our reward came with patience, hot coffee, mittens, and hats. The glacier became well disposed toward us and began to "fire it's big guns".
It started with a cracking and a rushing sound. Ice sloughed off the center-right side dumping a cascade of bergie bits and growlers. It continued and dumped some more, then something big broke, and more bergie bits and maybe even a small or medium iceberg was cast away from Dawes. The sounds and the sight made my heart beat quickly with excitement. Soon the waves arrived with a long low gentle role. We moved in sync with the nearby growlers and bergie bits.
When the show began to slow up, Jeffrey moved us into the wind one more time. It was time to go. The ice mountain was good to us, other boats were approaching, and a hot bowl of chili and sweet cast-iron-baked cornbread with melting butter was waiting in the galley.
New Video – One Boat Two Hearts
Last summer at the Victoria Classic Boat Show we met with Steve Stone from OffCenterHarbor.com who asked if he could do a video shoot of the David B. Someone from the boat show had suggested that the David B's story would be a good one, and so we were introduced.
The next morning Steve came to the boat and videotaped us as we talked about the David B and what it was like to restore the boat as well as what it is like now to cruise in Alaska and the Inside Passage. The video is heartwarming and they did a great job of capturing who we are and what the David B means to us and to our guests. I hope you'll take the time to watch the preview and then sign up with OffCenterHarbor.com to see the entire clip. It might just make you cry — but in a good way.

A competition run by Youth Gliding New Zealand has resulted in two Kuranui students winning a day of gliding at the Greytown Soaring Centre.
Joshua Wiegman and Sarah Hyde were presented the prize by former international student Anja Runge, who during her time at the college and in a space of one year, became a Qualified Glider Pilot.
Kuranui is one of only three colleges in New Zealand to offer Aviation Studies, and the only secondary school in New Zealand to offer glider flight training at NCEA.
The competition aimed at encouraging more youth into gliding. The Greytown Soaring Centre based at Papawai is a partnership between Wairarapa and Wellington Gliding Clubs, and Brian Sharpe, Wellington Gliding Club President, sees the competition as a way of giving back to the community and local youth.
Brian believes that gliding can build character and is suitable for people with different backgrounds and disabilities, "Besides, where else can you explore the sky?" he said.
Kuranui Aviation Studies Teacher and Wairarapa Gliding President, Vern Grant, agrees "This programme has gone from strength to strength at Kuranui and we're even getting interest from overseas."
Gliding emphasises team work and collaboration and can lead into other areas such as engineering and aeronautics, "Learning about being responsible and working with others is vital in gliding," added Grant.
Kuranui Year 9 student, Joshua, knew about the gliding course at the college through a friend. "I wanted to be a commercial pilot, but now I'd like to do gliding because of the view and excitement I get from flying. Winning a day of gliding has been the highlight of his year so far."
For Sarah, a Year 10 student, her grandad's love of flying model aeroplanes prompted her to give it a go. "I am considering a career in the Air Force or Navy and gliding seemed a logical place to start," she said.
Youth Gliding will be holding a camp for aspiring pilots at Papawai Marae over Labour Weekend.
Interested in taking up gliding? Check out the Youth Gliding video at https://youtu.be/3FUMJW_hDB0 or call Vern Grant at Kuranui College.

A tough-looking actor with a distinctive voice, Charles McGraw was equally adept as a character actor or leading man. McGraw began his film career in the 1940s, playing mostly small or un-credited roles. He often played hardened characters on either side of the law during the film noir era, most notably as a hired gun in the classic Hemingway adaptation "The Killers " in 1946. He had a starring role in the crime drama "Roadblock," and in "The Narrow Margin," he played a detective in charge of protecting a woman testifying against gangsters. After over a decade of film roles, he was given the starring role in the 1954 secret agent series "The Adventures of Falcon." He also had a memorable role as Marcellus in the 1960 epic "Spartacus" before gradually evolving into a character actor. Later in his career, he often played law enforcement officers in TV dramas such as "Police Story" or "Emergency!," and he landed a small part in Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds." McGraw also appeared in the 1975 sci-fi cult film "A Boy and His Dog," an adaptation of a Harlan Ellison story. He died tragically in 1980 after falling through a glass shower door.

Source: Wikipedia The Internet Encyclopedia
Born Charles Butters in Ohio May 10, 1914, square-jawed Charles McGraw grew up to become an actor and eventually made his first movie in 1942. At first it seemed as though McGraw would spend his movie career playing bit parts as movie tough guys and gangsters, but the actor later developed into an unconventional but appealing leading man. A gravelly voice, unsmiling bearing and rugged looks enhanced his appeal in film noir classics. His career was hampered somewhat by his bearing a slight resemblance to Kirk Douglas. Gravel-voiced McGraw's notable roles include: playing the grumpy cop hired to protect Marie Windsor in the b-movie film noir classic The Narrow Margin (1952); Spartacus as Kirk Douglas' gladiator trainer; Lt. Jim Cordell in Armored Car Robbery (1950); Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds (1963); and the cult classic A Boy and His Dog playing "The Preacher". He also starred in the TV version of Casablanca (1955) taking over Humphrey Bogart's role as Rick (although his last name was changed to "Jason"). A non speaking role was that of one of the two killers (William Conrad the other) in the classic " The Killers", the 1946 noir that introduced Burt Lancaster, written by Ernest Hemingway. McGraw died accidentally in 1980 after slipping and falling through a glass shower door.
Source: seeing the film
Just a little correction re "The Killers". McGraw did have some dialogue in that scene. Also the script was not written by Hemingway. He wrote the short story which inspired that terrific opening scene (the rest of the narrative was made up by Anthony Veiller and (uncredited) John Huston)

There's a first time for everything, and I'll find it!
Just put up my first post at my new Cynthia Hughes Literary Consulting blog. Check it out!
Hint: I'm heading to Houston on March 3 for another publishing workshop!
This one speaks for itself, my literary lambs. And I would have MUCH preferred to post a link to the Dallas Morning News, but that story is snagged in subscription-only land. Thus, I revert to The Oregonian:
Faye Kesey, the widow of Oregon author Ken Kesey, married another well-known writer, Larry McMurtry, in McMurtry's hometown of Archer City, Texas, on April 29, the day of the royal wedding. Faye Kesey is 76. McMurtry, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "Lonesome Dove" and many other novels, is 74.
Read the full story here.
My favorite literary tidbits of the day:
The children's book world is abuzz for good reason. In what should have been a banner week — the American Librarian Association announced the winners of the Caldecott and Newbery medals, the kidlit equivalent of the Oscars — Snooki from Jersey Shore bumped the winners off their traditional Today show appearance.
The Snooks pretends to have written a book (come on, who would she be foolin'), so she poofed into that book slot for the week, I guess. And the producer tried to claim that the show was booked in advance (but I guarantee everyone who can Google "American Library Association" would be able to find the date of the NEXT awards announcement pretty darn soon).
I was delighted that a fellow Kansan, Clare Vanderpool (below right) of Wichita, won the Newbery for Moon Over Manifest (Delacorte). And Erin Stead of Ann Arbor won the Caldecott Medal honoring outstanding illustration for A Sick Day for Amos McGee (Roaring Brook), which was written by her husband, Philip Stead.
I just don't understand the Today show. First off, Snooki does NOT need any publicity — I mean, isn't her 15 minutes LOOOONG over?! Second, isn't Today the No. 1 morning show? Why on earth would they be worried about viewers switching to GMA or whatever that CBS show is these days.
Author Eric A. Kimmel had a thoughtful post about the brouhaha, pointing out that even within the publishing industry itself, the awards don't necessarily ensure long-term success or even a next book contract.(Thanks to Roxie Munro for linking to that one on Facebook!).
This is just one more sign of the cult of celebrity driving the book world these days. Why should two really good books that can reach probably the most critical audience — our children — be booted in favor of Snooki?!
Author Jodi Picoult summed it up best on Twitter: "Valid questions: Who rushes out to buy the Snooki book? Why does Snooki think she can write a book? You don't see me acting on Jersey Shore."
Oh, yeah! It's that time of year again. Here are my picks from 2010:
Fiction: The Passage, by Justin Cronin.
Nonfiction: On the Outskirts of Normal: Forging a Family Against the Grain, by Debra Monroe
Young Adult: I Will Save You, by Matt de la Peña.
Of course, there are a whole lot of books I haven't gotten around to reading, not to mention the three I'd love to find under my Christmas tree!
Read the whole post at the Writers' League of Texas Scribe blog.
I stumbled upon this inspirational piece for writers via the New York Times's "Paper Cuts" blog:
"Advice for the lovelorn…I mean writers," by Marisa Silver. She starts out with a list of 10 tips for the lovelorn then translates those for writers. Among the highlights:
1. Your work will bother you. It will follow you around like an annoying little brother, pinching you every so often, even when you want to be doing other things with other people.
6. The only way to write fiction that will take someone else by surprise is to let your work take you by surprise too. Get lost. Be scared. Have no idea where you're headed.
9. Rewrite, rewrite, rewrite.
10. Your work will often look horrible and embarrassing.
Read the whole piece here.
I'm going to print these out and post them over my desk at home!
And interesting side discovery: "The Elegant Variation" blog itself. Worth checking out!
This item is also posted on the Writers' League of Texas "A Brief Word" blog.
I can't quite wrap my mind around the fact that Liz Carpenter has gone on to that great big press room in the sky. She was such a generous soul, who genuinely cared about all kinds of people all over the world. And let's talk about the best sense of humor of all time.
Her support of Texas writers — no matter whether they were beginners or established — has left a huge legacy. I'm sure I'll have more on this later, but for now, I'm wondering this: When Liz met St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, I can just hear her lecturing him, "Start with a laugh, Petey!"
Thank you, Liz, for being YOU!

These pictures are from a few weeks ago, but I wanted to show you what I've been up to with the fabric I had mentioned HERE. I've been busy working on both a quilt and a dress for my daughter (which will hopefully be her Easter dress if it fits right!). Here is just a small sneak peek of my work in progress...
What is going to be the skirt of the dress:
What is going to be the main part of the quilt:
I have since done an applique for the quilt and have made the straps and top of the dress. Hopefully soon I can post the finished products!
