It's May 2, 2015 and I'm going to let this blogpost stand unaltered, but please see May 2 for notes that the so-called styliform process is really just a displaced radius.
The big news today is the announcement of a new Chinese dinosaur/bird, Yi Qi, with a long wrist bone that extended into soft membranes trailing the forelimb, likely to extend them like a bat wing (Fig. 1).
Two possible reconstructions were offered (Fig. 1). I offer below a new reconstruction that does not have the forelimbs overextended at the elbow and shoulders.
From the Xu et al. abstract:
"Most surprisingly, Yi has a long rod-like bone extending from each wrist, and patches of membranous tissue preserved between the rod-like bones and the manual digits. Analogous features are unknown in any dinosaur but occur in various flying and gliding tetrapods, suggesting the intriguing possibility that Yi had membranous aerodynamic surfaces totally different from the archetypal feathered wings of birds and their closest relatives."

Christmas Yams
6-7 large yams
1 stick butter
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp nutmeg and cinnamon
1/2 tsp allspice
1/2 cup (or more) brown sugar
2 beaten eggs
3/4 cup half and half
Baby marshmallows
1/2 tsp orange peel (optional)
Wash, rinse, and quarter yams. Cook by bringing to a boil, turning the temperature down to low and simmer 15-20 minutes, just until tender but not mushy. Drain. Peel yams and put them in a big casserole dish. Mash the yams while still hot. Add the stick of butter. Mash together, melting the butter. Add salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, and brown sugar. Mix. Add the beaten eggs and half and half and stir. Top with baby marshmallows. Bake at 325 degrees F for 20-25 minutes until marshmallows are a light golden brown.
*When I made these on Jordan's birthday, he suggested adding some crushed, drained pineapple. We added about 1/2-3/4 cups, and it was a great addition!

But this is one of the greatest things I've ever seen on one of these pundit shows ever ever ever ever.
This Kevin James douchehole (not the King of Queens, don't worry) tried to defend his hero Dubya, calling my man Barack an "appeaser," using the example of Britain's Neville Chamberlain giving away the store to Hitler in the early 1930s.
When Matthews asks this dumbfuck, what DID Neville Chamberlain do, the guy simply could not answer. He stammers and stutters and says the word "appeaser" over and over again, when it's clear he has no idea what the fuck he's talking about.
Watch and cringe....
This is the epitome of brainless, knee-jerk punditry. If you hear a fucking stupid idiot spouting off bullshit in the defense of his or her party, call them out. And remember dear readers, negotiating isn't fucking appeasement. They are not synonyms; they have different dictionary entries for a reason. Maybe if the jackasses running our current administration had remembered that it's okay to have diplomacy with our enemies (see: The Cuban Missile Crisis for example), we wouldn't be mired in the shitstorm we are currently trudging through.
You can repeat your Talking Points as many times as you want, that doesn't make them true, no matter how many simple-minded people believe them. Go ahead and talk about lapel pins and not putting your hand on your heart for the national anthem. When your cousin or neighbor's kid dies in Iraq -- God forbid -- maybe you'll start to forget about all the bullshit for a while.

Health ministers to call for sustainable financing mechanisms
Commonwealth health ministers will gather for their annual meeting in Geneva on May 21, on the eve of the 70th World Health Assembly.The theme for the meeting is: 'Sustainable Financing of Universal Health Coverage as an Essential Component for Global Security including the Reduction of All Forms of Violence'.
At last year's meeting, ministers recognised the importance of health security as a bridge to peace and stability, as well as the role the health sector can play in strengthening global security, including preparedness and responses to public health threats and disasters.
A recent release from the Commonwealth Secretariat said the 2017 meeting will build on these discussions by exploring the role of health as part of a coordinated, multisectoral approach to promoting global security, with a particular focus on preventing violence and building safe and resilient societies.
Commonwealth Secretary General Patricia Scotland said: "Financing universal health coverage is a priority for all countries in the Commonwealth — and there is well-attested evidence that it enhances resilience and security as part of a package of approaches. Robust health systems are also direct contributors to equitable growth and sustainable development. This year's meeting of Commonwealth health ministers will seek consensus on a collective plan of action for the Commonwealth to ensure that accessible, affordable health systems are a reality for all our citizens."
Four years ago, the United Nations unanimously endorsed universal health coverage as a cornerstone of sustainable development and global security, underpinning its role in promoting collective security and prosperity. Universal health coverage also reinforces attainment of the Sustainable Development Goals under Target 3.8 to: "Achieve universal health coverage, including financial risk protection, access to quality, essential health care services and access to safe, effective, quality and affordable essential medicines and vaccines for all".
Dr George Pamboridis, Cyprus's minister of health will chair the one-day meeting, which will emphasise dialogue between ministers of the 52-nation Commonwealth. Three round-table sessions will cover financing of universal health coverage; the role of health in global security; and, preventing violence. The meeting will conclude with a statement of action.
Dr Pamboridis said: "Commonwealth Health Ministers Meeting is a unique platform for deliberating and sharing experiences and mutual learning, as a way to accelerate the pace to meet the relevant Target of 'Sustainable Development Goals', to secure the highest standard of health to our population as a fundamental human right. To achieve universal health coverage is the centre of gravity for all national efforts, despite our diverse set of health needs. The global geographic spread of our countries implies the necessity of acting jointly on cross-border risks to public health security, since domestic action alone has not been proven sufficient in ensuring health locally."

I have written a paper targeted for small business owners: "Some Thoughts on Computer Defense for Small Business"
"The problem of computer security will continue to increase in intensity in the coming years. Geo-political conflict, an increasing wealth divide between North and South in an increasingly networked world, and increasingly sophisticated threats will challenge the most well prepared specialists to secure your network. The passage of time has only made the following Unix administrator's adage become more true: "There are two kinds of computer users: those who have lost data and those who will." Which part of that data loss cycle is your destiny?" read more

This has always been a blog about my pregnancies and my babies, and I have conscientiously shied away from posting about myself or the greater concepts of our lives. I know that it's good to keep streamlined so people aren't confused and thrown around all over the place. A person who tunes in to hear how Jack is doing may not be particularly interested in my money-saving ventures or the garden we're planting.
But I do have things I'd like to talk about and document, and theoretically the stories of our lives really are the boy's stories. I'd like them to have a fuller picture about how we spent our time; the details that made up our days.
All of this is to say that I'll be posting a bit more expansively in the future, I hope. There are some neat money-saving methods I've discovered that people may be interested in, and some stories of my own life that I'd like to remember in the future. I thought about starting a new blog to talk about things that are less obviously about the boys, but it seemed like keeping everything together would be a lot easier.
If anyone has thoughts, please share them. Please.

The 28th annual Western Archives Institute will be held at the University of California, Riverside from July 6 – 18, 2014. The Western Archives Institute is an intensive, two-week program that provides integrated instruction in basic archival practices to individuals with a variety of backgrounds, including those whose jobs require a fundamental understanding of archival skills, but who have little or no previous archives education; those who have expanding responsibility for archival materials; those who are practicing archivists but have not received formal instruction; and those who demonstrate a commitment to an archival career.
The Institute also features site visits to historical records repositories and a diverse curriculum that includes history and development of the profession, theory and terminology, records management, appraisal, arrangement, description, manuscripts acquisition, archives and the law, photographs, preservation administration, reference and access, outreach programs, and managing archival programs and institutions.
Ciaran B. Trace has graciously agreed to serve as Principal Faculty Member for the 2014 Institute. She trained and worked as an archivist in Ireland before moving to the United States in 1997 to pursue a doctoral degree in Library and Information Science at the University of California at Los Angeles. While at UCLA, she worked as the Associate Director of the Institute on Primary Resources, a program aimed at fostering the use of archival materials in the K-12 classroom. Ciaran currently works as an assistant professor at the School of Information at the University of Texas at Austin where she teaches courses on archives and records management. In her research and writing Ciaran studies the nature, meaning, and function of everyday writing, recording, and recordkeeping. Another research strand looks at how and why individuals and institutions collect material culture, the intersection of material culture and information behavior, and issues of digital materiality, including the study of the artifactual nature of computers, computer systems, and digital objects.
Tuition for the Institute is $700 and includes a selection of archival publications. Other non-negotiable fees including program transportation, facility fees, opening dinner, and luncheon at the closing program will be available in early February. Housing and meal plans are available at additional cost.
The application deadline for the 2014 Western Archives Institute is March 1, 2014. For additional program information, see http://www.calarchivists.org/WAI

In my 31 years I have never seen a day like today! Mind you I live in New England where the weather motto is "Don't like the weather? Wait a minute and it will change"....this was nothing like I have ever seen before!
It was gorgeous and in the 70s, the kids were all outside in shorts, t-shirts and flip-flops. It was the perfect spring day, until we heard some rumbling in the distance. I called the kids in because you never know when lightening will strike...and we had just watched a video last week about how dangerous spontaneous lightening can be....they were not very happy with me, but once the thundering got closer and the lights started flickering they were more than happy to hide under the table with cookies and blankets covering them. They were even happier when they heard this incredible binging sounds coming from the back deck and looked out to see -
HAIL, HAIL and MORE HAIL!!! I have never seen hail like this here! Just another wacky day in New England!

To be honest, I'm a little glad that Easter is almost here... and not because of the joyfulness of Easter and the reminder of what it means... but because Lent will be over. This is probably part of the reason Lent isn't 30 days (which passed a few days ago, which I know because my flossers ran out, and it's a 30 pack I opened on Ash Wednesday). It's 40 days. You get tired of it... but it's not done yet. And you SO can't complain, because 40 days without some luxury is nowhere NEAR as bad as starving in the desert or assisting in your own crucifixion. Thanks Jesus. I'm REALLY glad you don't require either of those of me. (Not kidding here)
So, because Lent ISN'T over... you can count on at least a few more regularly scheduled themed posts... because I gave up lazyness for lent, and thereby am not allowed to think up (read: utilize) any of the multitude of reasons for NOT doing something I should. On a good note, I have flossed my teeth EVERY NIGHT (ok, I missed ONE), and written a blog post every weekday. I've done slightly poorer on the working out every day, and completing all my "to-do" items (in actuality... I stopped keeping a to-do list... so that could go one way or the other on the success scale, but I'd say that it's "lazier" than not). However, there have been many times I've said "you're just being lazy" and kicked myself in the butt. It's gotten less and less the further we get from Ash Wednesday... but I'm trying.
So since I have another project that is supposed to be this week's Thing Thursday (which means I need to get on it, since it's half done and is supposed to be posted tomorrow...) This is my "Wordless Wednesday"... obviously, with words ;).

My question is why was Donald trump chosen as one of the candidates?
what makes me shy away from voting is because I am not well informed on politics I have not much idea how it works. I am very aware of the issues going on in the world that need to be changed there is so many issue that go beyond words. For the candidates I am well aware of each of them in my opinion Donald trump is the most outlandish, racist, sexist person I have ever seen the words that come out of his mouth are disgusting and outlandish, he is more focused on making Hillary look bad. She has flaws and has made mistakes but to me she is better equip mentally to be a president. I don't like to get to much into it because the thought of him becoming president makes me not happy.
This election alienate me because one of the candidates Donald trump I just do not like. I know the only way to change this so his doesn't win is to vote. stuck in a position where I do not know what I am going to do.
What is going to happen to the future of are youth?
Will this election change possibility of low income students not being able to go to school?
What happens to those with out health care?

I recently co-wrote this article
Talking about the rise in television etc. recently.
I'd love to get some more feedback on it!
I recently co-wrote this article
Talking about the rise in television etc. recently.
I'd love to get some more feedback on it!
I'll give it a read and let you know what I think! :)
Great insight into the rise of TV as a higher form of art (or entertainment, or both; whatever).
I think you two rightly attribute the rise of quality in TV shows to The Sopranos. One of that show's producers, Matthew Weiner, went on to create Mad Men.
Keeping with that theme of great shows evolving from other great shows, Vince Gilligan started with X-Files and then created Breaking Bad.
You can see some resemblances between the two shows in terms of dialogue, the way the characters work out these logical responses to each situation through discussion, making you a party to their decision making. But Breaking Bad's exalted drama and moral ambiguity is on another level from basically everything that's been done so far.
I can't wait to see what kind of shows come next, working off the platform built by shows like B.B., Mad Men, and stuff HBO has put out.
@bnwmuppet Are you still active in these forums? I like reading criticism and film theory.
@aeonx i wish i was more frequently! (as you can see im nearly a year off and also i've changed my username) i'm still going through films & tv shows, but having a full time job has taken away a lot of the time of writing my own stuff. i still edit for that same website (http://isolatednation.com/), but mostly just talk in slack about films & tv that i've seen.
ps: the new slack integration is pretty cool! https://puu.sh/tMBHS/798e26892c.png

Excel saved my life & Sorting issues
Personal Tasks
I have been using Excel 2007 as a personal planner for about six months, and I love it. For some reason, this little XLS has made me efficient, and helped reinforce my often-forgotten priorities. I put almost everything on here--the stuff I want to put off, the stuff I won't remember and the stuff that is really important. I don't keep it as specific as "brush teeth today" or "put clothes on", but do put stuff such as "clean house for party" and "vacuum car" that aren't really once-a-week kind of things. When I do a task, I simply place an "X" in the Done column, and then Sort. Here is a screenshot.
You can't understand how this has greatly improved my efficiency. But this is not why we're here.
Sort data problem
I want to discuss something that is common for those spreadsheet movers and shakers: SORTING. Sorting is beautiful for a user, when it works. It took me six months to figure this issue out, so I want to help those in need on this "feature". By default, Excel is supposed to memorize your sorting options from previous saves. It also remembers sort settings on a new instance or a computer restart! This is not new to version 2007, and I think this has been a mainstay since Office 97.
When my "personal tasks.xls" started to get huge, I started sorting. I could prioritize the list and push the finished tasks away from the main list:
This was all good and fine, until I began to sort constantly, sometimes 20 times in a day. To boot, I would often open and close Excel in the process, and that's when I stumbled upon this hair-pulling problem: it would not remember any of my sorting options! So without moaning and groaning, here is the solution:
How it happened
It was my own fault. I love noodling with column titles, and I renamed a few of them over time. Excel does not adapt the sorting tool when you rename the headers! This could be considered a bug, but I doubt Microsoft would flag it as a high priority. And that fricking "My data has headers" really has no purpose, other than cosmetic. In the meantime, you may want to try my personal tasks spreadsheet idea. Who knows, you may be thanking me in a few months (hopefully with cash)!
And another thing...
One more great, great organizing application I discovered a few years ago is Desktop Calendar. It just plain rocks.

Mark 13:24-37
"But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come. ..Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. What I say to you, I say to everyone: 'Watch!'"
Today is the first Sunday of Advent, and we are told, once again, to keep alert, to keep watch. We need to be faithful, to not wait by sitting and doing nothing, but to actively prepare for the coming one by doing those things that create in us a space, first to see Jesus when he comes, second, to be ready to receive him in the most unlikely of places, and third to be ready for our lives to be changed quickly and completely by his presence.
Again, this does not mean failing to be active. It does not mean sitting and waiting. "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live, remember that." It means watching from a place of being ready, of living fully, of being ready for the coming of Christ.
We just don't know what tomorrow will bring. I am reminded of the passage from Mitch Albom's book, "for one more day" in which his characters have this dialogue,
"Life goes quickly, doesn't it Charley?"
"Yeah" I mumbled.
"It's such a shame to waste time. We always think we have so much of it." I thought about the days I had handed over to a bottle. The nights I couldn't remember. The mornings I slept through. All that time spent running from myself.
We may struggle with different things, different issues, different situations. But we all struggle with something. If we knew that our life would end tomorrow, what would we do differently? More to the point, if we knew that Jesus was coming tomorrow, what would we do differently? If we knew that our world was about to turn on its head, that the prince of peace, our wonderful counselor, the alpha and omega, the God of love were coming tomorrow, what would we do differently?
During Advent we prepare by remembering that God came to us as a baby, helpless, little, innocent, new, and to an unexpected mother in an unexpected time and place. We remember that those with eyes to see did see and were blessed in the seeing. We remember that others were threatened, but mostly people just didn't know, couldn't comprehend that God would choose to come to us in this unusual way. We prepare, we wait and watch, by remembering all of this.
But the thing is, God does come anew each day if we have eyes to see God. Part of being ready to see God is being prepared to see God, is being open to seeing God. Where is God moving today in your life? Where is God showing up today in your life? During Advent we are reminded to pray, to ask, to be able to see God's presence, care, love, amazing grace when it comes each day. And sometimes we do see it. And what about when we can't?
Father John Powell, a professor at Loyola University in Chicago, wrote this about a student in his Theology of Faith class named Tommy:
Some twelve years ago, I stood watching my university students file into the classroom for our first session in the Theology of Faith. That was the day I first saw Tommy. He was combing his long flaxen hair, which hung six inches below his shoulders.
It was the first time I had ever seen a boy with hair that long.
I guess it was just coming into fashion then. I know in my mind that it isn't what's on your head but what's in it that counts; but on that day. I was unprepared and my emotions flipped.
I immediately filed Tommy under "S" for strange... Very strange.
Tommy turned out to be the "atheist in residence" in my Theology of Faith course.
He constantly objected to, smirked at, or whined about the possibility of an unconditionally loving Parent God. We lived with each other in relative peace for one semester, although I admit he was for me at times a serious pain in the back pew.
When he came up at the end of the course to turn in his final exam, he asked in a cynical tone, "Do you think I'll ever find God?"
I decided instantly on a little shock therapy. "No!" I said very emphatically.
"Why not," he responded, "I thought that was the product you were pushing."
I let him get five steps from the classroom door and then I called out, "Tommy! I don't think you'll ever find (God), but I am absolutely certain that (God) will find you!" He shrugged a little and left my class and my life.
I felt slightly disappointed at the thought that he had missed my clever line – (God) will find you! At least I thought it was clever.
Later I heard that Tommy had graduated…Then a sad report came. I heard that Tommy had terminal cancer. Before I could search him out, he came to see me.
When he walked into my office, his body was very badly wasted and the long hair had all fallen out as a result of chemotherapy. But his eyes were bright and his voice was firm, for the first time, I believe.
"Tommy, I've thought about you so often; I hear you are sick," I blurted out.
"Oh, yes, very sick. I have cancer in both lungs. It's a matter of weeks."
"Can you talk about it, Tom?" I asked.
"Sure, what would you like to know?" he replied.
"What's it like to be only twenty-four and dying?
"Well, it could be worse.
"Like what?"
"Well, like being fifty and having no values or ideals, like being fifty and thinking that booze, seducing women, and making money are the real biggies in life."
I began to look through my mental file cabinet under "S" where I had filed Tommy as strange. (It seems as though everybody I try to reject by classification, God sends back into my life to educate me.)
"But what I really came to see you about," Tom said, "is something you said to me on the last day of class." (He remembered!) He continued, "I asked you if you thought I would ever find God and you said, 'No!' which surprised me. Then you said, 'But (God) will find you.' I thought about that a lot, even though my search for God was hardly intense at that time… "But when the doctors removed a lump… and told me that it was malignant, that's when I got serious about locating God. And when the malignancy spread into my vital organs, I really began banging bloody fists against the bronze doors of heaven. But God did not come out. In fact, nothing happened. Did you ever try anything for a long time with great effort and with no success?
You get psychologically glutted, fed up with trying. And then you quit.
"Well, one day I woke up, and instead of throwing a few more futile appeals over that high brick wall to a God who may be or may not be there, I just quit. I decided that I didn't really care about God, about an afterlife, or anything like that. I decided to spend what time I had left doing something more profitable. I thought about you and your class and I remembered something else you had said:
'The essential sadness is to go through life without loving..'
But it would be almost equally sad to go through life and leave this world without ever telling those you loved that you had loved them.
"So, I began with the hardest one, my Dad. He was reading the newspaper when I approached him.
"Yes, what?" he asked without lowering the newspaper.
"Dad, I would like to talk with you."
"Well, talk."
"I mean. It's really important."
The newspaper came down three slow inches. "What is it?"
"Dad, I love you, I just wanted you to know that." …
"The newspaper fluttered to the floor. Then my father did two things I could never remember him ever doing before. He cried and he hugged me. We talked all night, even though he had to go to work the next morning."
"It felt so good to be close to my father, to see his tears, to feel his hug, to hear him say that he loved me."
"It was easier with my mother and little brother. They cried with me, too, and we hugged each other, and started saying real nice things to each other. We shared the things we had been keeping secret for so many years."
"I was only sorry about one thing --- that I had waited so long."
"Here I was, just beginning to open up to all the people I had actually been close to..
"Then, one day I turned around and God was there.
"(God) didn't come to me when I pleaded with (God). I guess I was like an animal trainer holding out a hoop, 'C'mon, jump through. C'mon, I'll give you three days, three weeks."
Apparently God does things in (God's) own way and at (God's) own hour.
"But the important thing is that God was there. God found me! You were right. God found me even after I stopped looking..."
That's the grace of Advent. God comes even when we aren't looking. God shows up even when we don't feel anything is different or anything has changed. We are called especially during advent to prepare for that coming. To wait, to watch, to look. My prayer then for us all is that we have the eyes to see when God comes, each and every time. Amen.

There is a store that sells clothing, jewelry, home items, etc. it has an odd name: Burlington Coat Factory.
For a long time I avoided this place thinking they sold only coats, I had a few good ones already that I rarely wore. Then, I wandered in and found my assumptions were wrong. This is not a first go-to choice when I get the shopping bug but, I do remember they are there every now and then. I usually, but not always, end up leaving empty-handed, I think that is why it is not often on my shopping radar.
I visited the store yesterday and noticed my level of disappointment as I walked to the Back Of The Store and explored the tiny selection of clothes available in my size. This section is not only in the back and out-of-the-way (sending a message to our subconscious) but it sits right Next to the diametrically opposed sizing labeled Petit.
I mentioned how the placement of this section felt like a poor decision on someone's part and was directed to a man on the floor in charge. I approached to mention this dept's placement in the store and how it may affect other shoppers in a similarly unfavorable way. He was quick to respond with, " its a corporate thing" and rushed away (it felt like he couldn't get away from me fast enough).
I stayed in the store another few minutes shopping, trying to shake the disrespect. Clearly I was being sensitive, I told myself. I eventually got in line to check-out, opened my wallet to expedite my purchase and it hit me, I was giving money and supporting a business who clearly could care less for how it's customer experience was taking place. Placing the items I had intended to purchase on a nearby shelf, I exited the store. I would not support them by giving them my hard-earned money.
I did not expect them to quickly rearrange the store on my behalf. I did think they would be kind and courteous, maybe even appreciative that I took the time to provide customer feedback.
You know what they say about assume (ing), it makes an ass out of you and me ass/u/me

I'm restless...
I'm so restless lately. I don't know if it's the weather finally changing and becoming bearable or if it's only me. Work has slowed down (for now) and that isn't too bad although I don't handle having nothing to do too well. Pickup has been causing a few problems but hopefully mechanic has that fixed. Got to buy groceries today so we don't starve for the next few weeks. Kidlet seems happy lately or at least, she's not asserting herself in non-positive ways. Maybe I'm just lonely... for something.....I don't know what.

A couple of days ago I was at an anti-fascist counter demonstration. The fascist never showed up, but something other than fascist were there. These folks can be just as dangerous, but in a differant way. Im talking about the media cops.
The crowd was anywhere between 150-200 folks. About half of these people were masked up, and a semi-decent black bloc formed. This is great. Fascist want to see our faces, just like the police. We cannot afford to be known if we wish to see fascism eliminated, for our lives of our loved ones and ourselves could be in jeapordy.
As I was putting on my mask, a person tried to film it. I was VERY angry, but I kept calm. I didnt feel like paying for a 600 dollar camera and going to jail for assualt. I walked up and told this person to not film folks in mask, at all. I was met with slurs and laughter, and even called a fascist. The people with cameras kept trying to film everyone with mask, closely. I talked a few out if doing so, but only a few respected me.
I was met with 3 main arguments; transperancy, the right of journalism, and how if you want to remain annonymous you better have a good mask or its your fault. All three are disturbing, but especially the last one. I also encountered the same 3 arguments on a facebook debate later that night. These people are so adement of filming masked comrades!
This inspired me to write this for 2 reasons. The first being love. I love most anarchist. Regardless of politic I do not wish to see anyone in jail, or worse, dead, so some blogger or youtuber can gain some social capital. Nor for some livestreamer to show "the people" who is at what doing what.
The 2nd reason being the lack of hostility, and neglegance to call this dangerous and reactionary behaviour. Regardless of politic, we as a millue cannot let this happen. Have your singular revolution, or your late night smashy smashy. I dont care when it comes to your safety from the state and other enemies.
TRANSPERANCY: Fuck "The people™"
Live streaming has been a thing gaming culture took to the interwebs, and people could watch tournaments, podcast, or even lets plays in the comfort of their home, live. This technology is pretty cool in the context of broadcasting something you often must pay to watch.
However, in the context of resistance, insurrection, and revolutionary activity this technology serves as yet another apperatus for the state to use for their reppressive efforts of squashing rebellion.
The alleged people watching this are not unwoken workers, or sheeple, or folks to busy to go out and yell "fuck the police!" These folks ARE the police, either actually or mentally.
The police look through whatever evidance they can find to place us in their ratchet jail cells. They comb through video after video looking for that mask that shows recognizable facial features such as eyes, forheads, or even skib colour. They atentively listen for recognized and high profile voices. We are practically handing this information to them!
The mental cops do the same. They live tweet who they think they recognize. They update their facebook statuses when they suspect they recognize that filthy "anarchist" (their words, never mine) that smashed those windows or threw dumpsters in the street, because they "gave a bad name to anarchism." They also aid the police in their endevours knowingly, or unknowingly. They are mental police.
Lastly transperancy is unnescescary. The news reports on whatever happened. The news is as much of an state apperatus because they are also media pigs, but they know to stay way.
We need not focus on this imaginary homogenous "people" and lets face it, you livestreamers are only getting 10-50 viewers, who the fuck cares? Definately not the alleged people!
Right To Film? Right to fuck off
We all encounter these types of folks. The ones who use their state sanctioned rights to invalidate our identities, repress our self, and reinforce the social order through words and phrases. These are the constitutional warriors. Here to defend their right to be a fucking asshole.
Amongst this social exist a band of photo journalist and youtubers who document police and protest for transperancy as well, but specifically fall back on amendments and rights.
This group should physically be opposed for three reasons.
The first being obvious. They are media cops who endanger our annonymicity.
The second being is they are social enemies, on the exact same side as the police. They tout the same party line if the police were a leninist party.
They claim they have a right to film, and it is protected under the constitution. This is dangerous for several reasons. Firstly, rights can only be protected by a state. Rights themselves are an individuals expression of access protected by a social, and in this case, the social is the state. They assert state protection by claiming a right, while also claiming you have no right NOT to be filmed. They see only through the eyes of the state. This makes them potential snitches, and even worse, the second reason to oppose them.
They are in the exact opposite social of anarchist everywhere. We have no state to protect our individual assertions of access. Only our uniqueness protects us. We are opposed to the state! We wish to see it absolutely destroyed!
We cannot tolerate this reactionary...for lack of a better word....statism (i feel dirty now). Our two seperate socials are in a consistant conflict with eachother. Their assertions of right to film is an assertion of state control and governance.
Not to tout ideological purity, or perfectionalism in an analytical context, but this is reactionary as fuck! These are the same folks that say "not all cops are bad" and "hey dont smash those windows!"
Whatever your anarchist politic is, we can all agree; FUCK THAT SHIT
Its YOUR Fault The State Repressed You
This is the absolute most disturbing and reactionary behaviour that MUST be aggressively opposed. We absolutely cannot tolerate this behaviour around us.
Those who espouse such vitrolic and dangerous statements of victim blaming and uncheck machismo put everyone in jeapordy, while reinforcing a dangerous message to survivors of all kinds of trauma.
To say one has a complete responsibility to remain anonymous is true. You must be smart.
However, it is not their fault. They did not choose for the state to exist. They did not choose for fascist to exist. They had no say in the existance of either. How can one who claims to be on our "side" (whatever that means) express such hateful notions and lack of self-awareness?
If you claim to be on our side, walk the walk. You are just as responsible for filming someone who is failing at remaining annonymous, as they are for not being prepares. They must be concious of media cops like you, but if you on our side you must be aware of the danger you impose yourself.
This is not a game, and the state is not some unskilled, untrained apparatus. They have existed longer than us, and you damn well must see they are more prepared.
We must protect ourselves and our comrades. Media cops, fuck off.
Closing: statement and advice
In closing I wish to give some advice.
If you are an anarchist, masked up or not, and not in the mood to get arrested for being super insurrecto/ class badass? Block their shots. Put your sign in front of their cameras, block them with your body, anything that does not touch them.
If you are willing to.be arrested and possibly charged with assualt, AND a shit ton of angry liberals: Smash the fucking camera. They may be expensive, but compare the lives of your comrades to 600$. Fuck money, keep eachother safe!
Silly string, graffiti, fuck even food. Mess their shit up.
Now, to the media cops: Nobody fucking invited you. We dont want you, we dont like you. Every march or rally or event we are at you buzz around us like busy bees flocking for their queen bee (the state, for those bad at analogies). You tell us to respect your right to film? Fuck you. Respect our right to not be filmed or we will break that fucking camera.
Fuck your subscribers, fuck your blog viewers, and fuck your facebook friends. My comrades safety is waaaayyyy more important.
Media pigs, FUCK OFF!
this essay is a written response by john cracklemore, to OPDX live and FTPPDX.
This essay also follows the anti-© enactment. Copy, take, print, sell. Do whatever you wish. Knowledge is not property, property is theft!
Anarchy now, Anarchy forever.

Welcome to my user page. I am editing in my using my real name. I enjoy adding missing English language entries to Wiktionary. I like to think I am a generalist.

She tumbled out of reality,
To a world with blurred edges
Slow sounds
And no hurt.
She could see mouths moving,
Words forming,
But her ears were deaf to them.
The crushing pain,
So apparent moments ago,
She was in the room,
But no longer present,
Locked in the padded cell
Of the safe space
In her mind.

Viking Cruises has rolled out its new Viking Resident Historian programme on Viking Star, Viking Sea and Viking Sky this month.
A carefully selected faculty of historians will provide an enhanced level of enrichment for guests on all the line's ocean cruise ships, specific to the itinerary.
They will also conduct seminar-style roundtables – smaller, more intimate forums for discussion with guests, where the resident historian will examine in-depth subjects related to their own area of specialisation and/or particular areas of interest of the guests.
As with other onboard lectures, the Viking Resident Historian series will be presented in The Theater – and will also be filmed and made available for guests on the in-room entertainment system for the duration of the cruise.
The series is currently being professionally filmed in-studio, and starting in early 2018 will be available in its entirety on-demand through the in-room entertainment system on all the line's river and ocean ships.

LSU coaches keeping tabs on budding New Orleans QB
NEW ORLEANS — Cam Cameron's visit to Edna Karr High School on Wednesday had multiple levels attached to it.
For one, LSU's offensive coordinator was doing his homework on one of the area's top wide receivers, Rayce McMath, as the Tigers have long shown an interest in the 6-foot-3, 200-pounder and believe he'll be an ideal fit in the team's newly implemented short-passing game.
But if Cameron is taking notes, then quarterbacks are usually involved.
LSU has also kept close tabs on quarterback Aldon Clark, who the team views as one of its No. 1A options should one of its current commitments waver over the next few months, a source close to the situation told SEC Country.
Clark, a 6-foot-3, 210-pound pro-style prospect, holds offers from Memphis, SMU and Arkansas State, among others, while also generating interest from numerous in-state programs.
The Tigers currently have one of the nation's top quarterback situations with Lowell Narcisse, the nation's No. 5 dual-threat prospect, and Myles Brennan, the No. 17 pro-style prospect in the Class of 2017.
But LSU's interest in Clark dates back to his standout junior campaign, and Cameron continues to keep tabs on the New Orleans prospect.
The offensive coordinator watched Clark and McMath work out for about 30 minutes on Wednesday morning as the two went through the entire route tree. Cameron watched Clark go through his progressions, while also checking out McMath running routes.
The way the drills were set up, Cameron was able to watch McMath run routes against a defender, but also see how Clark could read the defense and adjust to what he saw.
Cameron asked that both Clark and McMath attend LSU's camps this summer, beginning next month, and McMath believes his quarterback could very soon draw an offer.
"I know he (Cameron) likes Aldon," McMath said. "Aldon was putting the ball on point this morning. He could probably get that offer at any time, just like me."

Hysterical part is, this Chick loved this crazy get up. This photo is blurry(because she is clapping for herself) but I still had to post it. She looks like a beetle bug!

Clous at Christmas
Nochebuena is the Spanish-Cuban-Latin American Christmas Eve. Mom came over and made pork loin, yuca (also called cassava), and black beans and rice. We don't have a dining room, so we moved our kitchen table to the tree. We were going to secure James's seat to a chair but he was just as happy on the floor getting bits of food from Nana. I know he's not a puppy. After, we opened presents in the evening like we've been doing in my family for a few years. Among other things, James bought Nana a biography based on his voluminous book licking.

Nice try, James

I logged more than 500 miles in a rented Santa Fe, a modest-sized SUV from Hyundai, on a mini road trip this weekend. While I'm no expert on cars, I do know that this brand of car hasn't always had the most stellar reputation, but the company's products have supposedly improved by leaps and bounds in recent years, helping to increase Hyundai's rather paltry U.S. market share. And based on my latest experience, I have little to say against that claim. The car had some nice kick to it; it handled well; all the accessories and controls worked just fine; and it seemed to have relatively decent gas mileage for its class.
That said, I'm once again glad that I don't have to put up with the headaches of car ownership. No loan payments, no insurance, no maintenance, no gas. Plus, having a car again for a few days seemed to put me into a funny mentality: one where you put great importance on parking as close as possible to your destination, and feel cheated or annoyed by any situation where you have to walk any notable distance to retrieve the car. Our family used to have a joke about this as we circled the parking lot of various malls in search of a good spot. It's funny how such car-based values resurface so easily after not being in the driver's seat for so long.
Another reason I'm glad to be back in public-transit-and-taxicab land? Fewer worries when the motion of the car (be it a subway or an auto) makes my eyelids want to droop.

A 12-year-old girl and a group of housing staff are playing their part to try and make sure that people across Cleveland stay safe in their homes this Christmas.
As part of Cleveland Fire Brigade's 'Stay Safe This Christmas' campaign, people were urged to submit a short video of themselves singing the 12 days of Christmas but with a fire safety theme.
Firefighters even posted their own video online to encourage others to follow suit.
Two winning entries were selected by fire chiefs and will now be used online to help get across key fire safety messages to the people of Cleveland. The winners were staff at Coast and Country's Grangetown office and 12-year-old Amy Todd-Davis who lives in Hartlepool.
Phil Lancaster, Cleveland Fire Brigade's Director of Community Protection, said: "We are always looking at different ways to engage the community to help spread key safety messages and we are really impressed with the winning entrants.
"Since we launched the campaign, over 15,000 people have viewed our online safety messages and hopefully this will increase now that we have added the winning videos. I would like to congratulate both winners and they will receive a prize for their efforts."
Statistics show that December has the highest number of accidental house fires with 160 in Cleveland alone last year.
Phil Lancaster added: "Christmas should be a time for festive cheer with family and friends but unfortunately every year people are injured and killed and this can be avoided by following a few simple safety tips.
"There are extra potential hazards in the home such as candles and Christmas lights and it's the time of year when people spend a lot of time cooking which poses other threats."
Cleveland Fire Brigade's top six messages to 'Stay Safe This Christmas' are:
- Keep your cooker clean – burnt food and fat can cause fires.
- Stand by your pan – never leave cooking unattended.
- Don't drink and fry – if you have a festive drink don't cook – order a takeaway or eat cold food instead.
- Be a bright spark – turn off electrical equipment when going out or to bed, including your festive lights.
- Maintain electrical appliances – a few simple checks could save your life.
- Don't hang clothes near heaters or cookers – they can easily catch fire.
Phil Lancaster added: "Over the next few weeks we will have a high profile and in communites providing advice such as keeping your cooker clean, never leave pans unattended and turn off all electrical equipment when not in use – including Christmas lights. We want people to remember Christmas 2014 for all the right reasons and not because they ended up in Accident & Emergency or lost a loved one through a tragic accident that could have been avoided."

I got the most amazing CSA basket this week from South Coast Farms in San Juan Capistrano.
It contained Carrots, Basil, Lemon Cucumbers, Purple Long Beans, Green Beans, Beets, Grapefruit, Valencia Oranges, Nectarines, Peach, Pluots, Cabbage, Apples, Corn, Reid Avocado, Grapes, Lettuce, Yellow Tomatoes, Lemons, Heirloom Tomatoes, Parsley.
Last night we had a salad made from the purple long beans, sliced red onion, some halved yellow tomatoes, a sliced lemon cucumber and some chopped purple basil tossed with salt, pepper, olive oil and red wine vinegar served with corn-on-the-cob and warm crusty bread. Delicious!
Of course the grapes are half gone and the peaches are disappearing rather quickly.

Warning - You Are Probably Fat
Don't go to read this article if you are easily offended, especially regarding your weight.
I popped over to one of my favorite blogs this morning - The Resurgence blog and read this very direct article on...well, quite bluntly, being fat. I read it because I have found myself struggling with weight creeping up on me the last few years (turning 40 some time back changed my metabolism greatly!). About a year ago, I decided I was finished with the excess and have been gradually losing weight ever since. Recently, I have found the last 15 pounds to be like concrete stuck to my 5'2" frame and hence my interest in hearing what John Catanzaron M.D. has to say about it. After reading his article I am more motivated - spiritually - to rid myself of the excess weight. Caring for my body, also the temple of the Holy Spirit, has been part of my desire in obtaining a healthier weight, but there are other factors as well. Feeling good in general is important to me. I also hope to spend some good, quality years with my children (and hopefully grandchildren some day). But honoring God with my health was my main reason...or so I beleived. I don't think that I was living that statement based on what Dr. Catanzaron wrote here:
"A person cannot call themselves spiritually fit if they excuse the fact that they are fat! If you are fat, regardless of the reason, your fat is a poor testimony of what Christ is accomplishing in and through your life. Our bodies that God has blessed us with are to be cared for with respect and honor. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 says, "Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body."
He also says there is no excuse for being fat. True that. Plain and simple, I eat more calories than I burn. Period.
So, with new found motivation, I continue my goal of fitness. A fit Christian is a healthy Christian and that is all inclusive; fitness of spirit, mind and body. All are essential to honor and glorify God in this human body.
I guess I AM going to the gym tonight. :)

Great post and so glad I came here from your FB. I'll try to sneak over and read the Doc's article. I have believed this for years but never had the nerve to say anything. I am may not be considered overweight by my looks but then most don't see me in my bathing suit and definitely not birthday suit. I admit I can be judgmental...there...I said it. Ha. Seriously, though I believe our bodies are God's temples regardless of weight. So if we are thin as a rail but excessive eating (and have high metabolism) or excessive drinking or smoking...it's all the same. Temple...regardless...it should be treated with purity. Amen sister! Great stuff.

"In those days you were living apart from Christ. You were excluded from citizenship among the people of Israel, and you did not know the covenant promises God had made to them. You lived in this world without God and without hope. But now you have been united with Christ Jesus. Once you were far away from God, but now you have been brought near to Him through the blood of Christ." (Ephesians 2:12-13 NLT)
It is a Gospel to [people] who are without God, sinful,
bewildered, anxious, discouraged, self-sufficient and proud yet destroying
themselves and others, caught in a desperate plight from which they cannot
extricate themselves. The Bible characterizes
[people] in such a state as "lost", and as being "without hope
in the world"... And let no one
suppose that such a term as "lost" is merely a bit of conventional
theological jargon. It stands for a
terrible reality, a reality which modern man in his modern predicament knows
only too well from his own bitter experience.
It gives rise to the voices of despair which haunt our radios, our
newspapers, our fiction and poetry, our stage and screen, our doctors' offices,
our hospital wards, our grisly nightmare of atomic war, and the conversation of
common people who no sooner meet than they begin to bemoan the fate that has
overtaken the world.
-- Lewis J. Sherrill in Lift Up Your Eyes [1949]

I love me some kuba cloth.
Recently I've rediscovered this amazing fabric. Here's a little info on how it's made:
The process of making Kuba cloth is extremely time consuming and may take several days to form a simple placemat size piece. The men first gather the leaves of the raffia tree and then dye it using mud, indigo, or substances from the camwood tree. They then rub the raffia fibers in their hands to soften it and make it easier for weaving. After they've completed the base cloth the women embroider it. They do this by pulling a few threads of the raffia fibers, inserting them into a needle running the needle through the cloth until the fibers show up on the opposite end. They then take a knife and cut off the top of the fibers, leaving only a little bit showing. Doing this hundreds of times forms a design. The designs are seldom planned out ahead of time, and most of the embroidery is done by memory.
The Kuba people, who developed this and many other fabrics were very resistant to using European cloth; and for many years seldom used machine made fabrics. When researching this and other cloths that the Kuba people developed, it is not hard to understand why they resisted the change so much. Each fabric, each pattern, and each design in traditional Kuba fabrics has great meaning. On the basis of what a person wore; you could interpret much about them. Social status age, marital status, and a person's character were just a few of the things a piece of cloth symbolized to these people.
