This year, the township came early to collect the leaves before Bill & I
could get to the neighbors' leaves. However, we have been blessed with a
multitude of our own leaves (on the heavily wooded lot) and have one huge
pile of shredded leaves in the old dog run area. With the dry spell, Bill
just put the mower deck up high and gathered them that way, dumping them
into the chipper/shredder for further volume reduction. That worked great.
More leaves are falling and there is much more yet to fall. I hope we get a
chance to get them all shredded before the weather no longer permits such
activity. Most of what I have now will be spread around different beds with
the "Pet" bed getting the lion's share. (That reminds me I have to get
chicken wire to plant the bulbs back there!!!)
That was a really good idea, Kitty. The landscaper across the street used
the same method to gather his leaves this year (which of course he mulches
himself on his heavily wooded lot.) In the past, I've hauled the old
wheelbarrow around, but I like your and Matt's method better!

Subject: [CHAT] Leaf Collection
Wednesday am as I left for work my neighbor from whom I always take
leaves was raking her leaves and putting them in bags for that day's
garbage pickup. She did so most likely because we were excpecting rain
which we didn't get. While at work I was thinking about whose leaves I'd
steal this year since there were none close to me as there had been in
previous years. There were plenty of leaves piled on grass strips
adjacent to curbs 2 blocks from me, but that seemed a long distance to
drag my tarp back and forth.
So last night I tied my tarp to the back of my Suzuki - and tied a
second tarp to the first one, rolled the whole thing up into the back of
the car, closed the gate, went around the block and pulled up alongside
the leaves. I unrolled the tarp, raked the leaves onto it and then just
dragged them home. Worked like a charm! The last load I left on the
tarp, unhitched it and dragged to my compost bins. Minimal effort for a
bounty of leaves. If it doesn't rain today I'll try for a few more loads
My only problem is that this is early for me - I haven't yet emptied the
12X15 tender plant bed out front. That's where I usually dump the leaves
and shred them before depositing in final locations. I'll have to work
on that before I can collect much more. I did check first to be sure the
shredder will work and it started right up.

Want to buy a home but your finances aren't quite ready?
The Homebuyer Club Can Help!
Join us at the Homebuyer's Club and get help building your credit and managing your finances towards the end goal of buying a home. The Homebuyer's Club meets once a month. Meetings are held on the 3rd Saturday of every month. Club Membership is open to all interested and willing to commit to working towards small financial goals with the ultimate goal of buying a home. Members can attend as often and for as long as they continue to benefit from participation.
We offer a different presentations and financial skills workshops from professionals each month on topics including: how to set your financial goals (homeownership, resolving credit issues or reducing debt), building your credit, managing your student loans & medical debt, repairing your credit, building emergency savings, managing your debt, teaching your kids how to manage money, filing your tax returns for free and getting the most money back, and other topics requested by Club members.
What are the Benefits of Club Membership
Homebuyer's Club offers a dedicated time and place surrounded by individuals who share the common goal of homeownership including addressing issues of family finances. You'll also have access to a personal Financial Coach who will review your personal financial situation and develop a road map with you for achieving your goals, step-by-step. Your financial coach will do two annual soft credit pulls* to monitor your credit building progress and offer you referrals to low or no cost accounts at major financial institutions.
* Credit pulls are completed through Credco and because the pulls are deemed for counseling purposes they do not appear on your credit report and will not hurt your credit score.
Are you credit ready? Do you have enough savings for a down payment...
But want to get oriented on the home-buying process and learn about government down payment assistance programs? We recommend you register for our HUD 8-hour Homebuyer Education Course instead of attending the Homebuyer's Club.

Arizona Termite Specialists Services
As a homeowner, you should regularly monitor the potential for termite infestations in and around your home.
The professionals at Arizona Termite Specialists are your best resource for termite management and control. It is critical to detect and address termite infestations early,
and continuously inspect and monitor your home's termite protection for effectiveness.
The professionals at Arizona Termite Specialists have expertise in identifying the signs of termite activity and use a proactive approach to termites. We focus on changes you can make around your home to reduce the risk of a termite infestation using the least amount of targeted treatment materials required to prevent and control termite infestations.
A number of treatment options are available to address termite infestations. Each home is unique so treatment should be customized accordingly. After considering your home's specific construction elements and termite species Arizona Termite Specialists will develop an appropriate and effective termite treatment plan for your home.
A quality termite inspection is the most important aspect of ongoing termite protection. When you hire a company to give you an estimate for service make sure they cover these issues:
1) Never rely on a company giving you a firm price over the phone. Every home is
different and must be inspected to find all evidence of termite activity.
2) Make sure they inspect the exterior and interior of your home. Only the inspecting exterior can lead to a missed interior area of termites creating ongoing problems and frustrations. A high quality inspection should include inspecting the perimeter of the home and all interior walls, closets, under bathtubs and sinks.
3) A high quality flashlight is a must so inspectors are able to spot little pin holes from subterranean termites. When a termite is in the wall it can pop through the wall and patch that hole with mud. This hole, about the size of a thumbtack hole, can easily be missed by an untrained eye. We have inspected thousands of homes and the majority of the time we find areas that other companies have missed.
ATS will also notify you of any areas that are conducive to termite infestation. Such as wood to earth contact, faulty grade and moisture issues. After you have other inspections call us, we guarantee you will see a difference.
At ATS we provide high-quality inspections and treatments for close of escrow. As a termite only company you can rest assured that we are professionals and can catch the little things other inspectors miss. There is nothing worse than having a client call you a few months after purchasing a home with termites. We understand this does happen and we will be there to help protect you and put your client's minds at ease. All of our inspections are done with a tablet on site and emailed directly to all parties at the end of the inspection. If termites are found we will also provide a competitive estimate using only Termidor HE. With over 18 years of experience and thousands of homes inspected we provide the best inspection in the business. If you have tough
questions from your clients regarding termites feel free to have them call us. We can reassure your client that if they love the home we will be able to control the termite problem.

The latest Nike advert has been revealed featuring leading sportsmen Rory McIlroy and Wayne Rooney, with the pair taking each other on in a demonstration of their skills on the golf course.
While the ad starts off as a regular introduction for the Northern Irish golfer, McIlroy is soon joined by a smiling Rooney on the tee, grinning as the two-time Major winner tees off to get their round underway.
However, Rooney has a trick up his sleeve, as he unveils the new Nike Ordem Football as his ball of choice. The latest design by the sportswear giant is based around the flight control of a golf ball, and the Manchester United striker wastes no time in swinging and swerving the ball along the golf course – hitting the pin with his first attempt with a little help from a computer-based friend.
As the pair make their way around the course, they soon emerge as the two leaders on the scoreboard (uncanny, right?) and it's neck and neck when they arrive at the 18. But Rooney, who has previously admitted to handing over the penalty taking responsibility to team-mate Robin van Persie, cracks under the pressure once again as he hits an errand ball towards the clubhouse.
But as McIlroy shouts out "foreeee" to alert the unaware crowd gathered outside, one familiar face breaks away from an interview to head the ball back onto the green and set Rooney up for an easy finish, much to McIlroy's despair.
This familiar face? None other than Brazilian legend Ronaldo, whose cheeky smile is match by the two on-course competitors.
All that is left is for McIlroy to sneak the Ordem ball into his bag as his caddy looks on, but don't expect him to be unveiling a football on the first tee at Augusta in April when the first Major of 2014 gets underway.

CANNES, France—As the United Kingdom's decision to leave the European Union sent aftershocks through global markets today, the ad industry's top leaders were all in the same place to hear the news. Like thousands of their colleagues, the heads of advertising's largest holding companies are all in Cannes this week for the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity. Two of the industry's most influential corporations quickly released statements about the "Brexit" decision, with the recurring theme being one of disappointment mixed with optimism after the polarizing decision by British voters. The final result was 52 percent in favor of leaving the EU and 48 percent against, with young voters overwhelmingly casting their ballots to remain a member of the 28-state group. British Prime Minister David Cameron announced at a press conference this morning that he will be stepping down because "the country requires fresh leadership" after the vote.Read More
On May 3, 1996, 2-year-old Liam Vanden Branden wandered out the door of his grandmother's house in Mechelen, Belgium. The blond-haired, blue-eyed boy was wearing a gray pullover, green jeans and ecru shoes with the Tom & Jerry cartoon characters on them. This is the last information known about Vanden Branden, because that rainy Friday was also the day he disappeared. He hasn't been seen since. But starting this week, millions of Europeans will see Liam—or, at least, an image of him.Read More

Cesar Conde: It's an incredibly fast-growing market, and we have probably the most compelling suite of products, regardless of language, that help our clients tap into this high-growth market. Historically, there's been a tremendous amount of focus on the U.S. But over the last few years we've started to build our business outside of the United States. You moved to NBCU almost three years ago, after 10 years at Univision. What's the biggest difference culturally between the two companies?

Netflix has kept its ratings metrics under lock and key for several years, refusing to share that data even with the creators of its own original series. So predictably, the streaming service was none too thrilled last week when NBC shared Netflix ratings data from Symphony Advanced Media , which measured the 18-49 demographic of each Netflix episode released last fall. Ted Sarandos, Netflix's chief content officer, returned fire today as he spoke at the Television Critics Association's winter press tour and blasted the "remarkably inaccurate data" from NBC and Symphony. "The methodology and the measurement and the data itself doesn't reflect any sense of reality of anything that we keep track of," said Sarandos, who noted that the 18-49 demographic that Symphony measured "is so insignificant to us that I can't even tell you how many 18-49 year old members we have. …It's an advertising-driven demographic that means nothing to Netflix." Sarandos took a shot at NBC, which in addition to releasing that data said that Netflix doesn't yet pose a "consistent" threat to broadcasters . "Why would NBC use their lunch slot with you to talk about our ratings? Maybe because it's more fun than talking about NBC ratings!" said Sarandos of NBC, which is comfortably leading all networks in adults 18-49. "There is not an apples to apples comparison to Netflix watching and any reported Nielsen rating," said Sarandos, though as usual, he declined to give any specific metrics. "I do think that once we give a number for a show, then every number will be benchmarked off of that show," he said , explaining that some Netflix series are "built for 2 million people" while others are "built for 30 million…that puts a lot of creative pressure on the talent that we don't want to." However, Netflix did make an exception to its "no ratings" mantra by recently sharing some metrics about its original movies Beasts of No Nation and The Ridiculous Six. "A movie with no box office is different than a show with no TV ratings," Sarandos said. "We also wanted to give some people some sense that the investment was making sense." About the only data that Sarandos would provide about Netflix viewing: "somewhere in the world, every second of every day, someone is pushing play to start a Netflix original show." Netflix will spend $6 billion on content in 2016, a figure which covers both original and acquired series, and offer "more than 600 hours of new, high quality original content," said Sarandos. That includes returning shows Marvel's Daredevil (Season 2 debuts March 18) Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (April 15), Grace & Frankie (May 6), Orange is the New Black (June 17). Additionally, Netflix announced today that Marvel's Jessica Jones has been picked up for a second season. Netflix is also rolling out several new series—including Will Arnett comedy Flaked (premiering March 11), Ashton Kutcher comedy The Ranch (April 1), French drama Marseille (May 5) and Baz Luhrmann's music drama The Get Down (Aug. 12)' while also "doubling down" on kids and family series, launching 20 more of those this year. Despite that overwhelming volume of original content, "we don't think there's too much TV. And if there is too much TV, someone else is going to have to slow down, because we have big plans for 2016 and beyond," said Sarandos. And even as it has accelerated its output, "we don't think we've sacrificed an ounce of quality." Netflix, which is now available in 190 countries, said it thinks globally, not domestically.Read More

After 42 years, the Dolan family will no longer control Cablevision. The New York-based cable operator announced this morning it has agreed to sell to Altice Group, a European telecom company controlled by French cable entrepreneur Patrick Drahi. Altice will pay $34.90 a share, making the deal worth $17.7 billion including debt. The acquisition also includes Newsday Media Group, publisher of Newsday and amNewYork, but does not include the Madison Square Garden Company, which owns the namesake arena and the New York Knicks and New York Rangers. It's the second U.S. deal for Altice this year. The company announced plans to acquire Suddenlink Communications, which operates in 17 midwestern and southern states, in May. Cablevision, which predominately serves the New York metro area and Long Island, has about 3.1 million subscribers. Altice says that with Suddenlink and Cablevision combined, it will be the fourth largest U.S. cable provider, behind Comcast, Charter and Time Warner Cable (the latter two of which are attempting to merge). "The deal underscores the increasingly global nature of premium video content and distribution, a trend that is also illustrated by the international growth path that Netflix is on," said Eric Schmitt, evp of TV and media at cross-channel marketing firm Allant. This morning's deal caps a frenzied two years of cable consolidation as subscribers continue to drop cable in favor of going over the top—Cablevision lost 16,000 cable homes in the second quarter while adding 14,000 Internet-only customers. And that's not going to make customers who are increasingly dissatisfied with their cable service any happier, notes Stephen Beck, founder and managing partner of management consultancy cg42. "Cablevision was not as bad from a brand vulnerability perspective as a Comcast or Time Warner, but they had substantial frustrations that customers were experiencing," said Beck, who has found 33 percent of cable customers are not happy with their service. "The frustration rates are higher than any category that we've studied," he said. "Will nontraditional players and OTT providers continue to benefit from the soup of misery that the cable companies seem to want to create for their customers?" Altice has invested heavily in broadband and Internet services for its other global operations. With Cablevision and Suddenlink, it hopes to have the heft to keep what it pays for programming in check. Schmitt said the heat is already high on networks, and this deal could bring it closer to a boiling point; Suddenlink dropped Viacom's channels earlier this year when the two couldn't come to carriage terms.Read More

Usually by the time a TV franchise hits its 16th year, it has begun running on fumes. But not HGTV's House Hunters, which is going stronger than ever, with the franchise's ratings up 8 percent this year. "House Hunters represents everything that people love about HGTV, all wrapped up in one show, which is buying and loving homes," said the network's president, Kathleen Finch. The show, which follows homeowners-to-be as they tour three properties and settle on one to purchase, "is appealing to both people who have not yet bought a home and people who have bought a home," said Brian Balthazar, vp, original programming, who oversees the series. "It's that voyeuristic, fly-on-the-wall feeling and lets you live vicariously through a set of homeowners." HGTV gets a regular influx of new viewers.Read More

Never changing but never dated.
Never alarming but never stale. It's a hell of a trick, but one which The Fall have pulled off for over three decades. Their 29th album arrives at an unusual time, in that they have a relatively stable line-up. Always prolific, they are now in a period of consistency unparalleled since the mid-1980s, and Ersatz GB is a fine addition to an excellent recent salvo.
The highlight is "Nate Will Not Return" – a shaggy dog tale in the vein of "Athlete Cured" – but throughout, Mark E Smith is on top grumpy old man form, whether as the scourge of idiotic internet warriors on "Laptop Dog" or bemoaning the experience of modern shopping on "Mask Search", with the never-more-pertinent couplet "I'm so sick of Snow Patrol/ And where to find Esso lubricant". And if he doesn't snarl "I had to wank off the cat to beat the fucking dog" at one point, then it sure sounds like he does.Reuse content

Joe Ely
Sharing the same West Texas roots that birthed Buddy Holly, Joe Ely helped kick-start the so-called outlaw country movement and has influenced its direction ever since. More than 30 years ago, he was part of the region's first supergroup, the Flatlanders, and he was there with Tex-Mex stars Los Super Seven as well. Now in the fourth decade of his sprawling career, Ely is as feisty and plucky as ever with the release of Happy Songs From Rattlesnake Gulch, his first album in four years. Despite his revered status among fans and peers, he's been chewed up and spit out by the major record companies, and that's how a small indie label like Rack 'Em Records landed him. Staying true to tradition, the album retraces familiar themes—hard-bitten heroes and unrepentant outlaws with songs such as "Sue Me Sue," "Hard Luck Saint," "Mister Clyde" and "Firewater"—tunes that reflect Ely's fondness for misfits and misadventure. The music, a defiant brand of down-home, unapologetic Southern rock, genuinely befits the album's brash upstart attitude. Imagine Chuck Berry railing about the devil while saluting Steve Earle with a mint julep in one hand and a bottle of bourbon in the other. Happy songs? Well, maybe not, but the current that flows through Rattlesnake Gulch is a bitter mix of dust, piss and venom.

The passport service is changing
This news article was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government
The changes are explained in a six minute video produced by the Foreign Office and the Identity and Passport Service.
On 1 April, the Identity and Passport Service took responsibility for the overseas passports operation.
The aim is to save money by reducing processing costs, and ensure safety by not moving blank passports around the world.

The Importance of Human Touch in Clinical Medicine
Unfortunately , the bureaucrats who assign the dollars which make the health system run, underestimate its healing value, because they are sitting ensconced in their ivory towers . Because this is an intangible, which cannot be captured in numbers or tracked, they fail to understand its significance, and try to replace it with things which they can measure ! Sadly, not everything which measures can be counted, and not everything which counts can be measured .
Let's look at an IVF patient who goes to a super-busy clinic with a large team of doctors, as compared to one who selects a small clinic with only 1 doctor. While it's true that there are advantages in a group practice , one problem that recurs is that you often don't get a chance to see your personal physician every time . In fact, you may not even see the same doctor each time, because it's the doctor who happens to be on duty that day who will do your egg collection or your embryo transfer. While this helps the clinic to improve its efficiency and throughput, it also makes your care more impersonal; and you need to try to create an emotional connection with each new doctor you see.
It's only when you have had the good fortune to be treated by caring personal physician in solo practice that you understand how important it is to have a physician as your advocate . You personal doctor stands up for you ; and goes out of his way to make sure that you get whatever you need. However, when you do not see your own physician, the attending doctor i^kely to be much more detached, because he doesn't share the same emotional relationship with you . He is not likely to care as much; or do as much; or go out of his way to take the extra trouble your physician would. I think this is something we all need to acknowledge , instead of pretending that it doesn't matter.
It's not easy calculating the value and quality of the doctor-patient relationship , but just because it's not easy doesn't mean that it should be done - and until we actually start incorporating this measurement into all clinical encounters , we will never be able to fix our healthcare system.

ITextRange::FindText method
Searches up to Count characters for the text given by bstr. The starting position and direction are also specified by Count, and the matching criteria are given by Flags.
- bstr
Type: BSTR
String to find.
- Count
Type: long
Maximum number of characters to search. It can be one of the following.
tomForward Searches to the end of the story. This is the default value. n (greater than 0) Searches forward for n chars, starting from cpFirst. If the range itself matches bstr, another search is attempted from cpFirst + 1. n(less than 0) Searches backward for n chars, starting from cpLim. If the range itself matches bstr, another search is attempted from cpLim– 1. 0 (degenerate range) Search begins after the range. 0 (nondegenerate range) Search is limited to the range.
In all cases, if a string is found, the range limits are changed to be those of the matched string and pLength is set equal to the length of the string. If the string is not found, the range remains unchanged and pLength is set equal to zero.
- Flags
Type: long
Flags governing comparisons. It can be 0 (the default) or any combination of the following values.
tomMatchWord 2 Matches whole words. tomMatchCase 4 Matches case. tomMatchPattern 8 Matches regular expressions.
- pLength
Type: long*
The length of string matched.
Return value
Type: HRESULT
The method returns an HRESULT value. If the method succeeds, it returns S_OK. If the method fails, it returns S_FALSE. For more information about COM error codes, see Error Handling in COM.
The ITextRange::FindText method can also match special characters by using a caret (^) followed by a special letter. For a list of special characters, see the Special list available in the Microsoft Word
Find and Replace dialog box. For example,
^p matches the next paragraph mark. Note,
^c can be used to represent the Clipboard contents in the string to be replaced. Thus, using
^c in the find string enables you to search for rich text. For more details, see the Word Help files.
As a comparison with the ITextRange::FindText method, the ITextRange::FindTextStart method searches forward or backward from the range's Start cp, and the ITextRange::FindTextEnd method searches forward or backward from the range's End cp. For more details, see the descriptions of these methods.
The following are several code snippets that show the ITextRange::FindText methods.
Example #1. The following Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) program prints all the /* ... */ comments in a story identified by the range r.
Sub PrintComments (r As ITextRange) r.SetRange 0, 0 'r = insertion pt at start of story Do While r.FindText("/*") And r.FindTextEnd("*/") 'Select comment r.MoveStart tomCharacter, 2 'But do not include the opening or 'closing comment brackets r.MoveEnd tomCharacter, -2 Print r 'Show the folks Loop End Sub
Instead of these comments being printed, they could be inserted into another edit instance and saved to a file, or they could be inserted into separate cells in a table or spreadsheet.
To print all lines containing one or more occurrences of the word "laser", replace the loop by the following code:
While r.FindText("laser") // Select next occurrence of "laser" r.Expand tomLine // Select enclosing line Print r // Print the line Wend
Example #2. The following program prints a telephone list, given a story that contains an address list. The address list entries are separated by two or more paragraph marks, and each entry has the following form.
Person/Business Name Address (one or more lines) (area code) telephone number
Note the use of the character
^p in the FindText string argument to locate a pair of consecutive paragraph marks.
Sub PrintTelephoneList (r As ITextRange) r.SetRange 0, 0 // r = insertion point at start of story r.MoveWhile C1_WHITE // Bypass any initial white space Do r.EndOf tomParagraph, 1 // Select next para (line): has name Print r // Print it Do r.MoveWhile C1_SPACE // Bypass possible space chars If r.Char = Asc("(") Then Exit Do // Look for start of telephone # Loop While r.Move(tomParagraph) // Go to next paragraph r.EndOf tomParagraph, 1 // Select line with telephone number Print r // Print it Loop While r.FindText("^p^p") // Find two consecutive para marks End Sub
Example #3. The following subroutine replaces all occurrences of the string, str1, in a range by str2:
Sub Replace ( tr As ITextRange, str1 As String, str2 As String ) Dim r As ITextRange r = tr.Duplicate // Copy tr parameters to r r.End = r.Start // Convert to insertion point at Start While r.FindText(str1, tr.End - r.End) // Match next occurrence of str r = str2 // Replace it with rep Wend // Iterate till no more matches End Sub
Example #4. The following line of code inserts a blank before the first occurrence of a right parenthesis, "(", that follows an occurrence of HRESULT.
If r.FindText("HRESULT") And r.FindText("(") Then r = " ("
To do this for all such occurrences, change the If into a While/Wend loop in the above line of code. This an example of a FIND/REPLACE macro that cannot be run with Find and Replace dialog boxes.

Jeffery, Gilmore plan to leave USC, enter NFL Draft
Thu, 05 Jan 2012 18:15:29 GMT — Columbia, SC (WACH) - South Carolina football players Alshon Jeffery and Stephon Gilmore plan to give up their final season of eligibility and enter the 2012 NFL Draft, ESPN reported Thursday. Jeffery, a junior wide receiver who won MVP honors in the Capital One Bowl, told ESPN's Joe Schad "I'm ready for the next step." In a statement released by USC, Jeffery said, "I plan to forgo my senior season and enter the NFL Draft. I would like to thank the fans, my teammates, Coach Spurrier and everyone involved for all the opportunities South Carolina has provided me. I am proud to say I will always be a Gamecock." Schad also reported that Gilmore, a junior defensive back, will also turn pro. In the Capital One Bowl, Jeffery had four catches for 148 yards and a touchdown, while Gilmore had an interception and five tackles in the Gamecocks' victory over Nebraska.
The players have the right to change their minds by January 14 in order to return school as long as they do not have representation by an agent.

I live in NH with my husband (married since 1991), our two kids and our two dogs. I've been scrapping since about 2004 and digi scrapping since September 2013.
I tend to scrap lots of pictures of my kids, trips, my husband (when he lets me take a picture), and my puppies. I enjoy traveling with family and friends although with the littles it's been so hard to get away so we mostly go on local camping trips.

An up-close portrait of the ongoing internal struggle by secular and religious moderates to rescue Islam from the small, violent, and virulent minority that threatens it.
A decade after the 9/11 attacks, this groundbreaking book by a preeminent reporter takes readers deep into the struggle within the Muslim world where a growing movement defies and challenges extremism and repudiates Osama bin Laden, his deviant doctrine, and his violent disciples.
Robin Wright, an acclaimed foreign correspondent and television commentator, has witnessed the angry birth, violent rise, and globalization of Islamic militancy for almost four decades. In her recent reporting, she discovers a stunning new trend spreading within the Muslim world—the rejection of Islamic extremists. This is a historic evolution, slow to take off but now reaching critical mass. This trend is increasingly visible as clerics publicly repudiate Osama bin Laden, Muslim comedians ridicule militancy altogether, young Muslims rap against guns and bombs, women scholars launch liberation movements using the Koran, Pakistani villagers resist Taliban intrusions, and former Egyptian jihadis debate and then denounce violence.
This new jihad, which Wright describes in its many manifestations, has various goals. For some Muslims, it's about reforming the faith. For others, it's about reforming political systems. For all, it is about achieving basic rights—on their own terms, not Western ones. What is at its heart is the rejection of venomous ideologies, suicide bombs, plane hijackings, hostage-takings, and mass violence.
Muslims, Wright demonstrates, are doing what the West cannot—confronting extremism on its own terms and rescuing the faith from a virulent minority and changing history.
Editorial Reviews
(c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
"[Wright] provides invaluable context for what she rightly terms 'the epic convulsion across the Islamic world' by listening to voices we don't usually hear....Anyone seeking deeper understanding of the Arab Spring needs to read Wright's formidably well-informed book ….Wright's richly textured portrait of ancient cultures in the throes of wrenching but liberating transformation makes it quite clear that Muslims themselves will decide their future."
— Los Angeles Times
"…Wright is an expert on the subject and this book is an accessible and riveting account for readers looking to learn more about the post-9/11 Islamic world."
—Publishers Weekly
"…Wright is one of the most capable observers of the Middle East….her chronicles of counter-jihad, anti-militancy, and women's mobilization are a timely contribution."
—Huffington Post
Praise for Robin Wright's
Dreams and Shadows
"Wright has long been one of the best-informed American journalists covering the Middle East, and her reputation is born out here. . . . Her book will be essential reading for anybody who wants to know where it is heading."
The New York Times Book Review
"Only Wright could have written Dreams and Shadows because only Wright has traveled so widely, interviewed such diverse leaders, and brought so much wisdom to analyzing the region's many-sided puzzles. This volume, full of mesmerizing detail and large truths, sets a new standard for scholarship on the modern Middle East."
Madeleine Albright, former Secretary of State
"If there is such a thing as a pinnacle in the landscape of international journalism, Robin Wright surely stands atop it."
The New York Review of Books
"Robin Wright is well aware of the complexities, paradoxes and the seemingly insurmountable dilemmas facing the Middle East today. She reminds us that in facing these challenges we need not resort to military force and violence or resign ourselves to compromise with extremism and tyranny."
Azar Nafisi, author Reading Lolita in Tehran
"The best of all possible worlds: An old hand guides us through the changes in the post-9/11 Middle East, and is able to sort out in a sober, smart way what is really going on."
Thomas Ricks, author Fiasco: The American Military Adventure in Iraq
In one of the first of a flood of books that will inevitably follow Osama bin Laden's death and the Middle East uprisings, Wright (Dreams and Shadows: The Future of the Middle East, 2008, etc.) delivers the stirring news that jihadism is fading, and Arab nations are finally entering the modern world.
Touring the region, reporter and scholar the author interviewed participants and recounts these changes, often through their eyes. Early chapters recap recent, familiar events—revolutions in Arab states, unrest in Iran, defections from al-Qaeda and increasing efforts within the Islamic world to discourage violence. Half of the narrative consists of magazine-like essays on Islamic culture, ranging from the predictable (the struggle for women's right, Islamic television) to the exotic (Islamic rap music, Islamic comedians, Islamic satirical theater, popular TV preachers). An astute observer and no Pollyanna, Wright delivers a jolt in her conclusion—even the successful revolutions have made matters worse by destroying the only thriving industry, tourism. Too many Middle East nations, oil rich or not, are economic basket cases on the level of sub-Saharan Africa with massive unemployment, widespread poverty, dreadful infrastructure and no tradition of democracy or even honest leadership. More than $1 trillion from the United States has produced unimpressive results in Iraq and Afghanistan, and there is no chance these nations will receive a fraction of that. Achieving freedom solves their easiest problem.
More journalism than deep analysis, the book paints a vivid portrait of dramatic changes in the Islamic world that may or may not end well.

Somehow, back in 2011, when Robin Wright's enlightening book, "Rock the Casbah" was first published, I missed it! Then Ms. Wright was a panelist on Fareed Zakaria's GPS program on CNN and I realized this was a Must Read book! Her epic work deftly summarizes the modern history of the Middle East, interprets and analyzes the evolution of political Islam and the basis for the use of terrorism to carry out jihad. She goes on to provide what The Economist termed a "corrective" to the impression that prevails in most media news reports that there are no voices of tolerant, peace-loving Muslims. Through her conversations with poets, dramatists, bloggers, rappers, comedians, movie makers, and feminists, she shows that those voices are there, struggling to be heard. Since these counter-jihad voices have been directed mostly toward the rest of the Muslim world, perhaps we can be excused for not knowing of their existence. And, after all, it is the rest of the Muslim World who must be convinced that not only are the acts of terror not been effective, as evidenced by the continuing poverty, unemployment, war, and violence in the Middle East, but that these acts of terror have done much to damage the reputation of this great religion and it's followers in the eyes of the rest of the world. I find it significant that the more dramatic episodes of atrocity and cruelty perpetrated by the extreme jihadists, such as ISIS have reached a level that has caused the counter-jihad voices to become more frequent and more vehement. I look forward to Ms. Wright's observations as these events continue. Ms. Wright has written an essential book for anyone who wishes to learn more about the Islamic world as it is today and its a good read, too!
A must read!

A 10-acre (4 hectare) field in the UK has been transformed into a shimmering sea of light, marking the first of many recycled material public artworks.
More than 600,000 unwanted CDs were donated to create the large-scale "CD Sea" project, envisioned by British-based artist Bruce Munro.
CD Sea is the first of many large-scale, self-funded projects set to be erected in the Long Knoll Field near Kilmington, UK. The projects will rely on community participation and will turn recycled or discarded materials into awe-inspiring sculptures and installations.
The project was inspired by a visit to Australia, where the artist became mesmerized with the light reflecting off the water at the beach.
In Los Angeles, the beach is also inspiration for the largest public art project to be undertaken in the US. Almost 6,000 children and 2,500 adult volunteers rallied together to transform LA's coastline and lifeguard towers into a large-scale public artwork.
There, 52,000 hand-painted panel sections were installed on the lifeguard towers for the "Summer of Color," a project conceived and developed by Portraits of Hope.
The Summer of Color exhibition will be on display until October.
CD Sea will remain on show in the Long Knoll Field for two months.

Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Singular Equation Systems with Autoregressive Disturbances
Maximum likelihood estimation of equation systems with first-order autocorrelation should, in principle, take into account the first observation and associated stationarity condition. In the general case, this leads to computational difficulties compared with conventional procedures, which perhaps explains the failure of the latter to incorporate the initial observation. However, in a special case where the autoregressive process has only one parameter, which is widely used for single equation systems such as demand systems, taking the first observation into account is no more difficult than ignoring it. The paper presents empirical results of estimating a demand system with Canadian data which suggest that maximizing the full likelihood function can yield very different and more reasonable estimates than maximizing the conventional one.

English: Rievaulx ( ree-voh) is a small village and civil parish near Helmsley in North Yorkshire and is located in what was the inner court of Rievaulx Abbey, close to the River Rye. The inner court of the monastery contained buildings such as the brewhouse, bakehouse and guesthouse. Its name originated as Rye (the river) + Norman-French val or valle = "valley". Its old local pronunciation was as "Rivers", and changed to "Reevo" when education brought a general familiarity with the French language.

Teenagers struggling through this summer's exam season take note – the secret to academic success could be achieving inner peace.
A new study from three leading universities has revealed the benefits of teaching "mindfulness" in schools, providing the first evidence that mental exercises akin to Buddhist meditation improve children's attention spans, lower their stress levels and contribute to better exam performance.
More than 250 pupils at six schools, aged 12 to 16, were given a nine-week course in mindfulness, which included breathing exercises, "striking visuals" and "film clips" all aimed at allowing them to train their minds to control their own thought processes.
After being followed up during the summer exam period, the pupils displayed "fewer depressive symptoms, lower stress and greater wellbeing" than a control group who did not receive the special lessons, the study's authors said.
"What we're teaching is the ability to have better attention and to be able to deploy that attention in ways that are useful emotionally, academically and socially," said Professor Willem Kuyken from the University of Exeter. "It's like going to the gym and doing reps with the arms and seeing the arms getting stronger, but instead you're using meditative practices to train the mind to better hold the attention on an object you want to hold it on."
One technique sees pupils trained to see thoughts as buses that they can choose to get on to or not: rejecting negative thoughts and holding on to useful ones.
"If a young person is sitting outside an exam hall 10 minutes before an exam and gets preoccupied with thoughts like 'I've not revised enough, I'm going to fail,' mindfulness training can train them to see their mind creating these thoughts, to step back and to choose not to put more fuel on the fire," Professor Kuyken said.
The lessons are already being used in several schools around the UK, under the auspices of the Mindfulness in Schools Project (MiSP), which took part in the study. Academics from Oxford and Cambridge were also involved.
Eighty per cent of the young people in the study said that they continued using practices taught in MiSP's mindfulness curriculum after completing the programme. Teachers also rated the curriculum as worthwhile and very enjoyable to learn and teach, the study's authors said.
Mindfulness practitioners say that although the techniques have roots in ancient Eastern meditation, the programme had no spiritual content and was focused on improving attention.
Dominic Morris, a modern foreign languages teacher at Bethnal Green Academy, which offers mindfulness lessons, said: "It's largely about giving them something to deploy – to centre themselves, calm themselves and to respond to situations, rather than simply reacting. There is a whole field of human experience besides the realm of thought which schools are not introducing to our students."

A guide to Sydney events, attractions, outdoor adventures and more
What to do in Sydney
The best of Sydney
20 things to do in Sydney at least once in your life
Sydney's a beautiful place to live and a glorious city to visit. We've picked out 20 things to do that show off our best side, from kayaking on the harbour and cocktails with a view to our favourite weekly markets, the best underground restaurant in the city and where to get your culture fix.
Escape rooms in Sydney
Puzzle rooms are taking Sydney by storm. Every time we check, another two seem to be popping up out of nowhere – and each one raises the bar with new ideas inspired by the hundreds of escape rooms found across the world. (Apparently Hungary is the place to go for the ultimate mystery room binge – there are more than 100 rooms in Budapest alone). The concept is simple: solve a variety of puzzles placed in and around the room before your allotted time runs out. Each room has a different theme and stimulates all senses, demanding a variety of problem-solving skills. Time Out took the challenge of visiting nine rooms in the city. Whether we got out in time? Well, that's a different matter.
Things to do when it rains in Sydney
Just because the skies are falling, doesn't mean you have to sit around doing nothing... We may be a city that struggles when the heavens part but look hard enough and there's a bunch of fun to be had in a downpour. The key is staying out of it with these great rainy day activities:
The best walks in Sydney
Coastal walks, bush walks, historical walks and inner city ambles: there are many routes to choose from to discover Sydney from a new angle. See our list of ten favourite places to wander and remember to pack a camera – these walks offer some of the best vantage points for snapping our city at its best.

Here's what it's like to try opera for the first time
Opera is one of our most revered forms of culture. But with great reputation comes a high intimidation-factor. At Time Out, we're lucky enough to have seen plenty of operas, so we know it's not all valkyries in horned helmets and heavy breast armour. But we also know not everyone has been so lucky. Like Shakespeare, The Iliad and The Odyssey or Jane Austen, opera has worked itself so deeply into our pop-cultural imaginations that most of us can probably recognise Bizet's 'Habanera' aria, or the twisty plotting of Cosi Fan Tutte without necessarily knowing where it came from. Given this sense of familiarity, we figured that for most people, seeing a famous opera for the first time will feel more like reconnecting with an old friend than meeting someone new. To test the theory, we gathered together four young creative types, with very different backgrounds, from three different cities, with one thing in common: they'd never been to the opera as an adult. We brought them all to Sydney for Opera Australia's production of Puccini's La Boheme and filmed the results. Melburnian Ali Barter may make grungy guitar pop now, but the Girlie Bits singer is also a classically trained soprano. As a kid, she'd actually appeared on stage in an opera, but she'd never seen one performed before. "I imagine I'm going to be blown away by their technical ability," she told us before the show. True to her word, she came out impressed. "Just their breathing ability… it was incredible. Now I kn
Sky Terrace
At the first sign of summer in Sydney we're on the look out for a place to kick back with a couple of friends, cocktail in hand, and views of our beautiful harbour. The Star's Sky Terrace has one of the most impressive views in the city, from the Harbour Bridge to the skyscrapers, and it's open every weekend until March. From Friday nights to Sunday sessions, you'll find DJs playing a soundtrack to your summer. This year, they have pop-up bars from Heineken, Grey Goose, Country Club Tequila and Tanquery Gin, so no matter what your tipple there'll be a cocktail list to match your mood. There's also giant jenga and foosball – perfect for a Sunday arvo catch-up. Peckish? You can choose from a range of casual dining fare including: lobster rolls with crisps, philly cheese steak, brie and jalapeno quesadillas and more.
Ten dishes you have to eat on The Streets of Barangaroo
For years the waterfront north of Darling Harbour was home to, well, not much. You might exit right at the King Street ferry and plunge into the tourist morass therein. Exit left nowadays and you'll find yourself in, arguably, Sydney's best dining district. Midweek, The Streets of Barangaroo hum with the CBD's lunching masses. At the weekend, Wynyard Station deposits foodies at the doorstep of this hub of outposts from Sydney's top restaurants. Today, cult eats right on the water's edge – from Spanish to Vietnamese cuisine, Louisiana-style barbecue to sushi, bakeries, gelaterias, cocktail bars and coffee shops – woo you in. The precinct's plan to create a place where you can work, eat, shop, live and play all within a few hundred metres along Sydney's glittering harbour edge has coalesced into buzzing reality. And you have to taste it.
Blue Mountains City Art Gallery presents Landmarks, a major contemporary exhibition featuring works by some of the world's most prominent land and environmental artists. Landmarks features work by some of the most significant artists of the late 20th and early 21st century, including Christo & Jeanne-Claude, Simryn Gill, Andy Goldsworthy, Andreas Gursky, Richard Long, Perejaume, Imants Tillers, and internationally renowned Blue Mountains artists Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro, who contributed a brand new commission titled 'The Ugly Stick Orchestra'. Drawing upon the John Kaldor Family Collection at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Landmarks is an important exhibition developed in partnership with the Art Gallery of New South Wales for the fifth anniversary of the Blue Mountains Cultural Centre, an outstanding regional gallery and a visitor drawcard of increasing importance.

Dave has been a member of Property Inspection Network (PIN) Ltd. and Oaktree Engineering Ltd. (OEL) since 1991. He has successfully completed over 11,000 property inspections, energy audits, and reserve fund studies in the Ottawa area and now in the Maritimes.
Property inspections focus on assessing structures, roofing, chimneys, mechanical systems, exterior/interior finishes, and the general building envelope. Energy audits are similar to home inspections in that a survey of the general building envelope, heating, and cooling systems of a house or building is completed. The aim of the energy audit is to assess how much energy the home is currently using and to suggest measures that can be taken to improve the homes energy efficiency. Reserve fund studies are undertaken at condominium properties. They are a comprehensive project involving a technical audit of the condominium and a financial analysis of the corporation's reserve fund. Essentially the purpose is to ensure that there is an adequate amount of money in the reserve fund over a prescribed period in order to finance all capital repairs and replacements.
Currently he is residing in PEI and continuing to do home inspections, energy audits, and reserve fund studies there. Dave is also continuing to work with PIN Ltd. and OEL from time to time on projects in the Ottawa area. You may find him doing home inspections and reserve fund studies, particularly in the busy times of year. Being an Ottawa native he finds it nice to come back to visit friends and family also.

Mr. Charron has served the Canadian Military both as a military and as a civilian. He graduated from the Royal Military College of Canada (RMC) and also retired from the military in 1992. As a military, Mr. Charron was, among other things, part of a group investigating the environmental condition of CFB Lahr in Germany before the Canadian government was to return the land to Germany. Following his military years, Mr. Charron continued to serve the Canadian Forces as a civilian doing research in the structural engineering laboratory at RMC. During those years, he was published numerous times both as an author and a co-author in engineering publications such as The Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering. Following his findings in a research project, he was instrumental in having part of the Canadian Wood Design manual changed to better reflect the compressive properties of wood in construction.
As a member of Property Inspection Network, Ltd, Mr. Charron is a building science expert and specializes in "Pre-purchase home inspections", "Infrared Thermography", "Flat Roof Investigations", "Engineering Assesments" and "Home energy audits". Mr. Charron has now completed over 7000 inspections, infrared investigations, engineering assesments and energy audits in Eastern Ontario and Western Quebec assessing structures, mechanical systems, insulation, interior and exterior finishes, roofing, chimneys, and building envelope.
Mr. Charron has presented the findings of a thermography investigation done for a large condominium corporation at the 2012 annual InfraMation conference in Orlando. His work on that project allowed the corporation with a limited budget to prioritize its roof replacement schedule and meet its obligations to the unit owners.
The infrared camera used by Mr. Charron during his thermography investigations is a FLIR B-250.
