The Ultimate List: 25 Gifts That Writers Will Actually Use 15
by Hannah Gersen
I realized that I had a drawer full of blank journals that I had never used, all given to me by friends and family wanting to support my writing habit. I knew I couldn't be the only writer with this particular surplus, so I decided to draw up a list of items that writers might actually use.

We the Narrators 15
by Snowden Wright
Why would anyone decide to write a novel in first-person plural, a point of view that, like second-person, is often accused of being nothing but an authorial gimmick? Here are a few novels that prove first-person plural is more of a neat trick than a cheap one.

The 10 Things I Learned From Gay Talese That Will Get Me a Job at The New York Times 5

As a writer's writer, Talese delivered these tips from a somewhat mythical place where pieces in magazines were paid for handsomely, weren't due in one day, and were allowed to run at considerable lengths.

Popping the Question: A Survey of Literature's Non-Traditional Marriage Proposals 3
by Matt Seidel
Some proposals are perhaps better forgotten. The following unromantic, bizarre, poorly delivered or conceived proposals elicit reactions less like Molly Bloom's orgasmically affirmative "Yes I will yes I will yes!".

My daughter, (22), and I are truly interested in Bella. She has a very well behaved Golden Retriever, and I have a very cute Bichon Shih Tzu, They don't make a lot of noise, and neither do we...although I do play the conga drums on occasion, but not very loudly. We would love to look at one of your larger condos with a fenced private courtyard. We are not in a hurry, since I a in the process of repairing and selling our current home. There was a recent unit for sale, with an updated kitchen opening out into the courtyard, which I loved, but I knew it couldn't wait for me forever. Please let me know when something similar is available.

The look in Tim Kenney's eyes when he's showing you his shop says it all: "I was born for this job." And it didn't take him long as a kid to know this self-truth. "When the other kids were playing sports, I was in my basement scavenging model airplane engines and making rockets," he says.
Tim Kenney
Credit: Photo: David Nevala/WPN
Later on, while the rest of his shop class was figuring out the intricacies of their spice racks and recipe boxes, Kenney was machining parts for his grandfather clock and laying the groundwork for a lifelong affair with wood and tools. He now boasts a 29-year career as a machinist, pattern-maker, and bonafide toolhound.
For the past 13 years, Kenney has led the team in Milwaukee Electric Tool's rapid prototype shop, where industrial designers and engineers bring their conceptual tool designs for 3D modeling and a quick reality check.
"I'm the liaison between engineering and modeling," Kenney says. "By the time a new tool leaves our shop for manufacturing, we're very sure of the design, and we know how the product will perform. We work the bugs out here." At Milwaukee, they call him the "Gazinta Man" for his wizardry, or maybe because he knows what "goes-into" every detail of toolmaking. They won't say.
But Kenney is no different at home, where he's built every stick of furniture in his house–after designing and building the sawmill and planer he uses to create the lumber. "I love making furniture," he says. "Besides, I'm too cheap to buy it."

Contested Property Claims
Research seminar with Mikkel Thorup
Abstract: The talk will present an ongoing research project on struggles over the control of urban spaces. We look at property as a dynamic process shaped and challenged by the practices and arguments through which social actors communicate, defend, and critique property claims. And our special focus is on what happens when actors to a conflict have equal yet conflicting claims communicated through law, morality, politics, common use or other property languages.
Cognitive Event Analysis: Towards an ecology of cognitive particulars
The Generality of Signs
On Wednesday, the Research Seminar will be featuring no less than professor Frederik Stjernfelt! Stjernfelt, the former director of Center for Semiotics, is an internationally renowned figure in the world of semiotics, and in this talk he will discuss a core semiotic topic: the generality of signs (abstract below).
Abstract: The Generality of Signs
For some odd reason, the generality of most signs is an overlooked secret. This paper discusses issues such as:
- Which signs are general?
- The generality of predicates
- The general structure of propositions
- The connection between general signs and realism
- The strange ontology of nominalism
The seminar will, as usual, conclude with a general discussion with the audience. We hope to see you all for a cosy and intellectually stimulating afternoon on Wednesday, October 7th at 4pm!

Investigations Into the Phenomenology and the Ontology of the Work of Art: What are Artworks and How Do We Experience Them?
Bundgaard, Peer F., Stjernfelt, Frederik (Eds.) 2015
This book investigates the nature of aesthetic experience and aesthetic objects. Written by leading philosophers, psychologists, literary scholars and semioticians, the book addresses two intertwined issues. The first is related to the phenomenology of aesthetic experience: The understanding of how human beings respond to artworks, how we process linguistic or visual information, and what properties in artworks trigger aesthetic experiences. The examination of the properties of aesthetic experience reveals essential aspects of our perceptual, cognitive, and semiotic capacities. The second issue studied in this volume is related to the ontology of the work of art: Written or visual artworks are a specific type of objects, containing particular kinds of representation which elicit a particular kind of experience. The research question explored is: What properties in artful objects trigger this type of experience, and what characterizes representation in written and visual artworks? The volume sets the scene for state-of-the-art inquiries in the intersection between the psychology and ontology of art. The investigations of the relation between the properties of artworks and the characteristics of aesthetic experience increase our insight into what art is. In addition, they shed light on essential properties of human meaning-making in general.

Cognitive Semiotics
Editor-in-Chief: Bundgaard, Peer F.
2 Issues per year
Cognitive Semiotics is a peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary journal devoted to high-quality research, integrating perspectives, methods and insight from cognitive science, cognitive linguistics and semiotics, placing meaning-making into the broader context of cognitive, social, and neurobiological processes. The journal is a platform for the study of meaning-making writ large: in our interactions with the surroundings in all domains, in the natural as well as in the social world, in language and other sign vehicles, as well as in perception, and in action.

Linguistic Coordination: Models, Dynamics and Effects, Thematic Issue of New Ideas in Psychology
Fusaroli, R. & Tylén, K. (eds.) 2013.
The contributors to this issue of New Ideas in Psychology pursue a radically different approach, that of language as an interaction system (Bickhard, 2007a). Like any human behavior, language is considered an open, multi-modal system, deeply embedded in and shaped by continuous functional interactions with the surrounding social, cultural and material environment (Dale, Fusaroli, Duran, & Richardson, 2014; Lupyan & Dale, 2010; Rączaszek-Leonardi & Kelso, 2008; Tylén, Fusaroli, Bundgaard, & Østergaard, 2013). Consequently, the study of language shifts its focus from individual inner linguistic representations to the public perceivable and communicational nature of linguistic forms (Fowler, 2013; Port, 2007). The primary goal of linguistic activity is not to construct well-formed sentences, but to maintain and regulate social affiliation and relations, share experiences and accomplish joint goals, etc. In other words, language is first and foremost a matter of coordination: coordination between interlocutors and their linguistic behaviors, between contexts and communities, between different time scales of linguistic processes, etc. (Beckner et al., 2009; Bickhard, 2009; Fusaroli & Tylén, 2012; Greenspan & Shanker, 2007). However, the approach to language as coordination dynamics present us with (at least) three fundamental challenges: i) How do we model language as coordination and what are the consequences? ii) If language is an open system, how do we then define and demarcate the object of scientific inquiry? iii) If grammaticality and acceptability are not by themselves the primary goals of linguistic processes how do we assess the functionality of language?
Narrative Theory and Poetics:
5 Questions
Edited by Peer Bundgaard, Henrik Skov Nielsen and Frederik Stjernfelt
Excerpt from the book's preface:
In the present interview book, Narrative Theory and Poetics: 5 Questions, eminent narratologists, literary scholars, poeticians, stylisticians and philosophers answer five simple and broad questions. As is generally the case in the 5 Questions Series, the questions are intended to give the authors an occasion to outline their intellectual biography -- in whatever detail they find necessary, with or without the anecdotes of life -- as well as to lay down their idea of the state of the art of the domain of research to which they have devoted their work including the future challenges and unsolved issues it is still ripe with ...

The Communicative Mind: A Linguistic Exploration of Conceptual Integration and Meaning Construction
Line Brandt, 2012
Advancing a research approach to meaning construction connecting Linguistics, Philosophy, Literary Studies, Neurophenomenology, Cognitive Science and Semiotics, The Communicative Mind presents an interdisciplinary exploration of the various ways in which the intersubjectivity of communicating interactants manifests itself in language. The book supports its view of the mind as highly conditioned by the domain of interpersonal communication by an extensive range of empirical linguistic data from fiction, poetry and everyday discourse. Among recent theoretical advances in what Brandt refers to as the cognitive humanities is Fauconnier and Turner's theory of conceptual integration which, offering a bridge between pragmatics and semantics, has proved widely influential in Cognitive Poetics and Linguistics. With its constructive criticism of Fauconnier and Turner's hypothesis that the "blending" of mental spaces is a general mechanism of cognition, Brandt's book brings the scope and applicability of Conceptual Integration Theory into the arena of scientific debate.

my current go to is the jacks-r-better bear mountain bridge. i can't get over the fact that i can sleep on my stomach in it.
anywhere along the AT - you'll be right there inthe blue ridge, its pretty much all looks the same after a while and its all nice.
I have no concern about tarp damaging due to the significantly lower force exerted.
everyone is always looking for straps and ropes with 1000+ pound rating.
I use mason line for my tarp lines and...
I use the glow in the dark line cleats that we had a group buy on here 2 years ago.
I typically hand the tree huggers as high as i can reach and i'm 6'4", the opening int he hammock is still usually at chair height before i sit in it.
I just got a JRB bridge so i have to learn a...
I use 12' on each end - the options it opens up are wonderful
it took me this long just to switch to straps and D rings fromthe stock hennessy setup, may be a little while before I try whoopies :D
just did a hike this last weekend with group of 8 hammockers, most used the cheap blue foam rolls but I used my new exped synmat inflating pad. Temps got down to 29 at night and there were a few...
pads certainly aren't the "best" option for hammocking, but they are the cheapest and most versatile (going to ground) so they have their place.
or in my case on particularly cold hangs I would eat an MRE before bed and wake up at 6am starving :D
sometimes I eat a portion of a mainstay ration - they are like eating desert before bed.
an extra layer of fleece ontop of the foam did seem to limit or eliminate the problem for me.
just caught this part
I've seent he blue one before - I think it came up in discussion 2 years ago and someone tried one.
can't remember the verdict.
I use an exped synth mat 9dlx
love it
how about some mighty-mend
my experience is that the more absorbent the drip line the better it works, it just sucks the moisture right off the main line.
even a shred of cotton cloth works well.
I would just keep the setup you have and add some prussik knotted drop strings that you can slide along to keep the water from getting all the way to the hammock.
I have a group of 8 doing a section hike with hammocks next weekend, good timing guys :)
we started in maryland heading south this year now starting at front royal heading into shenandoah, they...
I think you would have to add a center tie out to hang it rectangularly
the jetboil does offer the hanger - anybody used one before?
you can get cotton, fleece, and silk ones makes to line a sleeping bag.
if you don't want it to be closed theny ou can always open it up.
when I want a tighter closure I run the side tie-out for the hammock through the ring are the corner of the tarp. I then either run both lines through the wrist strap on a treking pole and down...
personally think that the hennessy is a great starter hammock for most people - I've gotten 6 friends to buy them in the last 2 years so that we can all go hammock backpacking. once they got used to...
looks like a good option for long term durability and a non-backpacking situation.
I should probably decline - just bought a bunch of down.
those would work great for mosquito netting and rain - wou;dn't trust it too much for strong winds or snow.
thats a good deal - i'd be tempted if scotty hadn't claimed it
thats basicly what I have - I made the switch from foam mats to the exped synmat.
before I switch to quilts I plan to switch to a bridge hammock.
When using poles I run the guy line through the wrist strap and then down to the ground. has worked for the last few years this way.
i had looked around for one a while back - don't have one yet - but I do have an exped pump inflating synmat - I'm actually thinking that my next step would be making a down bag similar to how the...
look at the non-stretching sailing lines with breaking strength around 1800lbs
thats my personal prefference, but I like things to last forever. the sailing lines are thin and light still so it...
i have those same stakes - love em. I also don't mow near them :D
ok seriously. how do you determine how muhc down you need for a project? what is the volume of an uncompressed ounce of 900 down?
its 3/16" thick
the R4 insulated inflatable big agnes mats are rated for 15*
i got the exped R6 since I'm a cold sleeper usually and have no doubt i'll be warm enough with it.
just ordered an exped synth pump mat myself -
http://www.backcountryedge.com/exped-sleeping-pads.aspx had the best price and if you register you get a coupon code for 12% off
I got the synth...
I was about to sew some fleece to a space blanket... where can I get my hands on some thermadrape?
haven't been on the forum in a while, guess I checked back just in time?
I want in :D I need to get around to making my winter bridge
agreed, if you have the energy and conditions are right you can make a decent fire and throw a lot of fresh saplings on it for smoke. if that doesn't get attention then make the fire bigger i guess...
you may want to be glad you didn't do this one.
worked out to a total of 37 miles. 9.5 miles of the roller coaster the first day, then to make up for it 20 miles the second day, and to wrap it up...
I should be planning summer and fall hikes also (slowly working our way down virginia a weekend at a time)
can hang basicly anywhere, don't foget to get a backcountry pass at the ranger station first. its free, but they want you to have it if you aren't camping in designated camp sites.
doing the same thing ashman, did snickers gap to harpers ferry last fall with 5 friends
doing snickers gap to mannassas gap this weekend with another 5 friends (some from the last trip) and we...
for that height reason i bought the deluxe for the extra length and have been very happy with it.
probably too far for you - but I have a group of 6 hammock hiking from snickers gap to the nova 4h center by manassas gap friday morning through sunday.
didn't any of your folks grow up without air conditioning?
I did, so the best coling we had at night was open windows and some fans.
"When inflated, the NeoAir mattress is warm to sleep on, thanks to a patent-pending Reflective Barrier that reflects heat back to the user's body and blocks cold from the ground. A second...
basicly a space blanket with air pockets on both sides. since most downward heatloss is radiant heat and not conduction or convection this should work very well.
i particularly like how small it...
i've slept in both - both are comfortable - the larger explorer however lets me lay a bit more flat so at 6'4" I preffer the longer one.
I wouldn't have a problem sleeping in any of them though.
doesn't sound like an assymetric hammock to me -
i would love to have an exped wallcreeper though when the budget allows.

-bit of a car guy. This has been a thing since I was old enough to know what a car was and I don't see it changing any time soon. Definitely a guilty pleasure!
-very family oriented person. I visit with my immediate family at least once a week.
When it comes to dating, having a strong and unwavering friendship is something that I value more than just about anything else. Honesty is the highest form of intimacy.
Lost in Translation, Forrest Gump, Good Will Hunting, The Shawshank Redemption, or anything by the Cohen Bros, Spielberg, Tarantino, or Aronofsky.
Cosmos, Breaking Bad, The Newsroom, Colbert Report, Trailer Park Boys, Mythbusters, Top Gear. Just watched the Netflix series Narcos and loved it! Besides that, I'm TERRIBLE at keeping up with tv shows.
Shostakovich's 5th Symphony played by Chicago is absolutely incredible and trumps anything else I could list here, but Sigur Ros and Death Cab are both near and dear to me. My musical tastes run the gamut of things not including bro country or screamy angsty teenager music. Hiatus Kaiyote has been rocking my world pretty hard lately.
Mahi-mahi, grilled and lightly seasoned, drizzled with freshly squeezed lemon and served over a bed of wild rice. Add a bottle of two-year-old Sauvignon blanc. Seriously though, I'll eat just about anything. No mayonnaise though! Nope nope nope CAN'T handle it.
positive vibes from friends and family
new discoveries
a sense of accomplishment
deep down, you always wanted someone to dedicate and perform a tender and heartfelt jazz ballad a la John Coltrane circa 1963 to you, because that's something I can handle.
Of course, meeting up and solving all the world's problems together over a few drinks is always acceptable!

I'm not sure if I'm approaching this the correct way but I'm trying to send a small amount of data to the server and receive a couple of strings back. Because of the way the server CMS works the data is most easily sent in the URL path so I have no need to send any additional 'data'. For example :
var url = '/footnotes/cleartile/'+nid+'/'+tid+'/'+side;
var mydata = 'This serves no purpose';
jQuery.post(url, mydata, function(data) {
console.log("Data Loaded: " + data);
Is jQuery.post() the correct mechanism for this type of communication ? And if so, what should I pass in the data parameter when nothing is necessary ?

The Three Little Pigs
Christian Jackson
Digital Art - Enhanced Matte Print
Straw, sticks and bricks. The rest is history.
The classic children's stories that many of us grew to know and love have been simplified into hyper-minimalist, iconographic posters by up and coming premier designer Christian Jackson. Inspired by his new fatherhood, Christian has captured the beauty and honesty of popular classic children's stories through captivating imagery, rich color, and old world texture. By mixing the old with the new these posters invoke the nostalgia of rich history while maintaining the aesthetics for modern home decore.

What I Read in June 2016July 11th, 2016
I managed to finish only one book in June 2016, mostly because I spent most of my reading time catching up on about 50 long-form articles that I'd downloaded with Instapaper.The one novel was METAtropolis: The Wings We Dare Aspire by Jay Lake and Ken Scholes. I referred to it as a novel, but it's actually a collection of closely connected novellas. It's one of the best near future SF stories that I've read. Sadly there will be no more stories from Jay Lake, who died recently – it's clear he was a major talent and I've enjoyed everything I've read by him so far.
How Typography Makes Toronto More AccessibleJuly 7th, 2016
Most people probably don't think of typography as an accessibility issue, unless they have a visual impairment like colour blindness or nearsightedness. But it is important and it can be important – think of having only a fraction of a second to read a road sign, for example. It has to be legible in all sorts of lighting and weather conditions. Park Avenue or Comic Sans are not good typefaces to choose.
The city of Toronto has an active program to improve the city's signage and typography is a big part of that.
Along with landmarks and lighting, typography is one of the queues the City took into consideration when creating its pilot project. Working alongside consultants Steer Davies Gleaves, the City designed sleek information pillars that display distances on maps, street names, icons representing nearby facilities (such as the subway or public washrooms), and descriptions of the particular neighbourhood's history and its local attractions.
Juan Pablo Rioseco, an associate with Steer Davies Gleaves and the Wayfinding Strategy's principal designer, says they needed to tick a few boxes when it came to making the city more accessible with typography. The first was choosing a legible typeface to use on signs. This meant using a font that was sans serif, geometric, rounded yet sharp, and came in a family of different weights and sizes.
The font that ticked all of these boxes is Gotham, a sleek typeface first commissioned by GQ magazine that is now widely used by brands like Saturday Night Live and Twitter. Gotham was used in different forms for TO360. For example, Gotham Narrow was used for street names and for neighbourhood signs they used the font in all capitals.
Comparing SpreadsheetsJuly 6th, 2016
I've used Word's compare feature many, many times, but I've never had a need to compare spreadsheet, until now.
At work, we have large spreadsheets that are exported from our job control software. I have to use some of the information in these in my documentation. Finding changes is painful as there's no change logs (don't get me started). Todsy, I figured I'd use Excel's compare feature to check for updates from the last revision in March. I just assumed it was a standard feature in Excel. Of course, it's not.
After some googling, I found this Microsoft support page. It turns out that the Profession Plus versions of Office 2013 and Office365 include a spreadsheet comparison tool. You can also install it as part of the Inquiry add-in, again, if you have the right version of Office. Fortunately, we do, and I was able to use it to compare my spreadsheets.
If you don't have the tool in your build of Office, you could dump the spreadsheets into Word and use Word's compare document feature. That will catch some of the changes, but not everything the Excel tool will, but it might be better than nothing.
An Adjunct to the Drake EquationJuly 5th, 2016
How often does life arise in the universe? It's a question that's been aaked for a long time and astronomers have used the famous Drake equation as a guideline. That equation gives an estimate for the number of intelligent civilizations in our galaxy. Now astronomers have developed another equation to help them estimate the odds that life will arise.
The new equation, developed by Caleb Scharf from Columbia Astrobiology Center and Leroy Cronin from the School of Chemistry at the University of Glasgow, can't yet be used to determine the chances of life existing elsewhere, but it's a promising start in that direction.
Fundamentally, the researchers hope that their new formula, described in the latest edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, will encourage scientists to study the various factors that link origin-of-life events to specific characteristics within planetary environments. More conceptually, they hope their equation will eventually be used to predict the frequency at which planets experience an origin-of-life event, also known as abiogenesis. As the researchers explained to Gizmodo, "This would allow us to figure out the likelihood of life arising elsewhere in the Universe."

Business Week is now on the vertical search beat. The biz trade weighs in with a piece on vertical search that a) pretty much misses everything that's interesting, and b) over-focuses on consumer-centric search technologies. Boys and girls, what's interesting about vertical search is that you can sell subscriptions, not that you can drill deep into domains that people are only going to pay for through transaction pass-thrus. The latter is old news (c.f., Expedia).

Abstract:The conventional methods of nitrogen removal are typically based on a two-part process. Ammonia is first oxidized to nitrite and subsequently to nitrate under aerobic conditions by the autotrophic microorganisms. Nitrate is then dissimilatively reduced to nitrogen gas under anoxic conditions by the heterotrophic bacteria.
This paper describes a method (the SymBio™ process, protected by USA patents 5,506,096, 5,557,415, 5,700,370 and 5,906,746) of maintaining simultaneous nitrification and denitrification in a single tank at very low dissolved oxygen concentrations. Bacterial content of the reduced forms of coenzymes nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) changes with the metabolic condition of the biomass. The NADH concentration is monitored on-line by a sensor that takes advantage of the fluorescent properties of NADH. The changes in fluorescence signal are used to control the dissolved oxygen concentrations at the desired level. This allows each sludge floc particle to maintain a balance between the nitrifying and the denitrifying fraction, thus achieving both simultaneously in the same basin
If the operating conditions vary, the measurement of NADH will detect changes in the energy state. Armed with this information, it is possible to decide whether the biological process is in a state of balance or imbalance. This knowledge can then be put to immediate use to control one or more critical process parameters such as the level of aeration the rate of sludge return, the MLSS concentration or the end of the denitrification phase. Actual case studies are discussed.

LONGUEUIL, CANADA -- (Marketwired) -- 01/20/14 -- Reunion Gold Corporation (TSX VENTURE: RGD) ("Reunion or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the National Energy Corporation of Trinidad and Tobago Ltd. ("National Energy") setting out the terms under which the parties will collaborate to evaluate the potential development by Reunion of a silico-manganese plant in Trinidad and Tobago.
Following the release of the pre-feasibility study of the Matthews Ridge Project in July 2013, Reunion performed various desktop studies, including assessing the viability of reducing the output of the Matthews Ridge Project located in Guyana and converting the manganese concentrate into silico-manganese alloys in Trinidad and Tobago. In addition to its proximity to Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago offers numerous benefits including competitive power costs, deep sea port facilities, dedicated areas for industrial projects and proximity to silico-manganese markets.
David Fennell, Chairman of Reunion, stated: "This is a significant development for the Company. While Matthews Ridge as a standalone mining operation is an attractive investment opportunity, we believe that the construction of a silico-manganese plant in Trinidad and Tobago to be supplied by Matthews Ridge ore may potentially allow us to create a vertically integrated operation which could become one of the world's lowest cost producers of silico-manganese."
About Reunion
Reunion Gold Corporation is a mineral exploration company engaged in the exploration and development of the Matthews Ridge manganese project located in the North West District of Guyana, South America. The Matthews Ridge Project consists of four prospecting licenses covering an area of 185 km2 in northwest Guyana, in and around the former Matthews Ridge mine. In July 2013, the Company announced a proven and probable reserve estimate of 26.3 million tonnes of manganese with an average grade of 14.2% Mn. Manganese is the fourth largest metal consumed in the world, behind iron, aluminum and copper. It is a key component in steel and iron production.
About National Energy
National Energy, a subsidiary of the state-owned National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago Limited, is engaged in the promotion of new energy-based industries and the provision and management of industrial estates, port and marine facilities to support the industries in Trinidad and Tobago.
Additional information about Reunion Gold Corporation is available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com and at www.reuniongold.com.
Certain statements contained in this press release constitute forward looking information under Canadian securities laws. Such statements include those discussing the potential development of a silico-manganese plant in Trinidad and Tobago, and the possibility of becoming one of the world's lowest cost producers of silico-manganese. No assurance can be given that these events will happen. Reunion needs to complete several studies, including a scoping study and a full feasibility study. The results of such studies may have an impact on the forward looking information.
The statements containing forward-looking information in this press release are made as of the date hereof and the Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking information, except as required by law. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward looking information.
Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.

I took a trip down to Mexico last week and I heard "so-so" in response to "Do you speak English?" Now, I'm used to hearing "so-so" more in the context of "all right" or "OK", but not as in "more or less". Is this usage correct or is it a lack of good teaching?

According to Merriam-Webster, "so-so" means "neither very good nor very bad."
According to The American Heritage Dictionary, "more or less" is an idiom meaning "basically, essentially."
I have often heard Japanese and Korean students of English also use "so-so" in terms of their English proficiencies, and based on cultural context (outward humility), I think they mean to say that they are okay at English, but not great, rather than the seemingly less humble meaning of "more or less" (saying they can basically speak the language).
So-so means "passable".
When you ask 'Do you speak English?', the response means that though the speaker has the ability to speak English, he might have difficulty in finding grammatically and situationally apt words or phrases or pronunciations in his speech because he is accustomed to a local English dialect which is different from the dialect and accent used by the questioner.
In other words, he is "more or less" able to convey the intended meaning depending on the mutual understanding of the respective local English dialect.
Similarly, when you say your food is so-so, you mean that it is "more or less" okay to eat, depending on your own perspective. For example, one might not find anything excellent about a particular dish, but the spice level might tinge his tongue more than someone who might find the same dish a little bland, but not sufficing enough to complain.
It's probably meant in the context of "my English is so-so". That would fit the "alright or OK" definition you mention.
The problem is that in Spanish "más o menos" means both "more or less" and "so-so". As a result people are often confused about which one to use in English. In the same way that English speakers get confused about using "ser" or "estar" in Spanish. The response "more or less" to the question "Do you speak English?" or "How is your English?" isn't really correct but an English speaker will understand the idea!
When I was in USA I got a book which has a table indicating grades of quality, something as following:
excellent, good, fair, so-so, very poor (This case it means the opposite of good: 'not good').
Another day I asked an American friend the meaning of so-so. He told me that is close to "more or less" but something that is not good.
For example, if you do some work and ask you customer about it and you get "SO-SO" this means that your work is passable but don't have the expected quality.
If the question was, how is your English? then So-so would be an appropriate response. To the question, do you speak English? it is incorrect.
I personally hate the use of so-so when people give a judgement about something. When students are learning English, so-so is a lazy response that they over use in many countries rather than challenge themselves with the wide range of adjectives they could use. As a teacher in China I do not allow my students to use it in class and encourage them to use one of a hundred other possible responses.
As far as I know, "more or less" relates to quantities. For example, "She has more or less 500 books at home". I believe it's similar to "She has 500 books or so at home" and "She has about/approximately 500 books at home". On the other hand, when a question is asked with "how", we might answer it saying "so-so". "A: How was your day today? B: It was so-so".

May 2, 2000 -- Thanks to all of the hard work by Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and others, most of us are aware of the hazards of drunken driving. However, few of us are aware that driving while drowsy can be just as -- if not more -- dangerous. But individual efforts and statewide awareness campaigns are helping to educate drivers about the importance of adequate sleep and the dangers of drowsy driving.
About half of U.S. adults admit to driving while drowsy, and 17% have actually fallen asleep at the wheel, according to a recent poll by the National Sleep Foundation. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates that at least 100,000 crashes, 71,000 injuries and 1,500 deaths each year in this country are the result of a driver falling asleep at the wheel. And that's not all. About one million crashes each year occur as a result of driver inattention or lapses of attention, and sleeplessness increases the risk of such lapses. Still, experts tell WebMD that drowsy driving accidents may even be underreported because police officers do not routinely ask about sleepiness at crash sites.
Drowsy drivers are more likely to crash than well-rested drivers because they have slower reaction times; impaired judgment and vision; and pay less attention to important signs, road changes, and actions of other drivers.
Four populations are especially hard hit by drowsy driving, Thomas Roth, PhD, head of the division of sleep medicine at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, tells WebMD. "Drowsy driving is a significant problem in a variety of groups -- young people, especially males age 18 to 25, because they don't tend to get enough sleep; shift workers; people with untreated sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea and narcolepsy; and commercial drivers, because they are on the road so much," Roth says.
People with sleep apnea -- a serious sleep disorder marked by snoring, pauses in breathing during sleep, and struggling to breathe during sleep -- are three to seven times more likely to crash as people without the disorder. Narcolepsy is characterized by excessive and overwhelming drowsiness. People with the condition tend to fall asleep at inappropriate times and places, including behind the wheel.

Bipolar Disorder Health Center
Antidepressants for Bipolar Disorder
In this article
The use of traditional antidepressants to treat bipolar depression is considered experimental, and none are FDA-approved for that purpose. There is no research to show that they have any greater benefit than taking a mood stabilizer (such as lithium or Depakote) alone. Many of the existing studies of their efficacy have focussed mainly on people with unipolar rather than bipolar disorder.
Using antidepressant medication alone to treat a depressive episode is not recommended. The drugs may flip a person, particularly a person with bipolar I disorder, into a manic or hypomanic episode. Hypomania is a more subdued version of mania. Using antidepressants alone also may lead to or worsen rapid cycling in some bipolar patients. In rapid cycling, a person has 4 or more distinct episodes of mania/hypomania or depression over a 1-year period. And while they may "recover" more quickly from depression, they may be more prone to experience a relapse or the next phase of illness sooner and more often than people without rapid cycling.

Tips for Managing Bipolar Disorder at Work
If you have bipolar disorder, no one needs to tell you how challenging this mental illness can be. You are among millions of American adults who may also find that the mood episodes of bipolar disorder can be very disruptive at work. Take heart. There are many steps you can take to find meaningful work and develop successful relationships on -- and off -- the job.
Read the Tips for Managing Bipolar Disorder at Work article > >
Nevertheless, there are many different types of antidepressants used to treat depression in people with bipolar disorder. With antidepressants, it typically takes three to four weeks for people to respond to treatment. Sometimes a doctor will try several different medicines before finding one that works for a patient. These medications include SSRIs such as Zoloft or Prozac, SNRIs such as Effexor, and novel antidepressants such as Wellbutrin.
Note: The FDA has determined that antidepressant medications can increase the risk of suicidal thinking and behavior in children and adolescents with depression and other psychiatric disorders. If you have questions or concerns, discuss them with your health care provider.

FIRST LOOK: Chloe Green 'My look is edgy chic but effortlessly put together' Topshop heiress unveils new footwear range reflecting her personal style
- Star, 24, travelled around South America for inspiration
- Says designs stay true to her 'edgy chic' style
- Has incorporated trend for lower heels, which Kate Moss will 'love'
- Rita Ora, Cara Delevingne and Naomi Campbell to attend launch party
She may be the heir to a multi-million pound empire but Topshop heiress Chloe Green is carving out a successful career for herself, one fashionable step at a time.
24-year-old daughter of Arcadia boss Sir Philip Green has spent the past few months travelling the globe to gather inspiration for her SS14 footwear range, which lands in shops today.
Speaking to FEMAIL about the new Chloe Jade Green collection, the designer said: 'I have been travelling a lot to get inspiration for my range. I've spent time in the States and South America to get an idea of the markets out there.'
Scroll down for video
First look: Chloe Green has unveiled a new footwear and accessories range, which will be landing in Topshop, Miss Selfridge and on her website today
The result? A 12-strong trend-led collection of monochrome wedges, studded stilettos and butterfly applique embellished sandals designed to take her wearers from desk to dancefloor this summer.
'I am following the trend for lower heels this season but I didn't take much inspiration from the catwalks because I always want to base my designs on what I'd wear myself. I don't want to lose what's me,' she explained.
Speaking about her personal style, she said: 'I would say I'm edgy chic but effortlessly put together. I love Givenchy and YSL and high street wise, I usually shop in Topshop and I love Zara at the moment.'
New range: Chloe, who isn't modelling the range herself this season, has created a 12-strong trend-led collection of heels and sandals
Staying true to her style: Chloe, who describes her look as 'edgy chic', hopes her new footwear reflects her personal style
In keeping with her signature style, each shoe has a green sole and is named by Chloe herself.
The former Made In Chelsea star has named each shoe after places she visited across the Americas - and from Upper East to Rio de Janeiro, the city styles are reflected in each design.
She has aimed to create fashionable and flattering designs, explaining: 'I have designed the shoes so they don't cut above your ankle - they make your legs look longer.'
Her roster of celebrity fans now includes the likes of A-listers Kim Kardashian, Demi Lovato and Nicole Ritchie and she is hoping her latest green-soled shoe collection proves just as popular.
Low point: Chloe's new range incorporates the trend for lower heels, which she says Kate Moss will love
'I have sent some to Emma Roberts and Rita Ora, Cara Delevingne and Naomi Campbell will be coming to my launch event so I am really excited to introduce them to the range and see which designs they choose.
'Rita's style is so cool, I love it. I think that by wearing them, she will inspire people to wear them in a different way.'
Chloe also has a pair with Kate Moss' name on - the good friends recently holidayed together and Kate is set to unveil a clothing collection in Topshop this season.
'Kate loves lower heels, so I think she will covet the Pasadina shoe I have created,' said Chloe.
Globetrotter: Chloe, pictured, left, with father Sir Philip and, right, with Kate Moss, is already planning her summer travels and winter collection
Moss style: Chloe says the Passadena sandals are right up Kate's street
Chloe, who couldn't live without her bronzer and describes her beauty look as 'natural', has plans to take her range forward.
'I am taking the future as it comes. I am looking forward to doing some more travelling and heading to the Grand Prix but I am so pleased with how the collection has turned out and I'm already working on my winter range.
'Who knows, perhaps some going out dresses to complement my shoes could be my next step,' she said.
Prices start from £75 and land today on CJG.com, Selfridges.com and Topshop.com
