The Thinking Behind the Tweet
LinkedIn is a valuable tool. We can use it to discover what other people think about topics.
I asked some of my LinkedIn friends the Question: What does it take to succeed at sales?
And, the most-repeated piece of advice was - Listen Better.

Here's another quote from Dirk Schlimm:
"The genius, who sees opportunity with outside-the-box ideas, gets easily frustrated if he or she feels surrounded by others who only see obstacles. A powerful person with a big idea is likely to feel that he or she is right and will grow impatient with naysayers."
This quote triggers some questions...
Do you know many people who think of themselves as innovative/creative thinkers? Do you know people who consider themselves out-of-the-box thinkers while you see them under dimmer lighting?
Do you know many people who get frustrated when other people inject obstacles? How do you feel when others naysay when you raise what you believe to be good ideas?
Spirited Leaders have a philosophy that can be summed up in 5 words: People Don't Like Receiving Criticism. We also say, "Constructive Criticism is an Oxymoron".
Now, we know some thick-skinned people can accept and respond well to criticism...for these rare few, constructive criticism is not an oxymoron. However, implicit in Dirk's quote, it is highly unlikely people who possess and exhibit a level of genius - powerful people - will respond well to naysaying. So, when you find yourself facing such a powerful person consider better strategies than voicing criticism that will likely be received poorly.
If you must voice criticism then plan its delivery carefully.
Dirk explains how this can be done in his book.

There's a good reason why Shakespeare put that "doth protest too much" line in Hamlet. Many people are unable to express an objection and leave it at that. Rather, many people express an objection and go on and on...providing either gory details or more examples, or both.
Now I must stop here before I too doth protest too much...
...it would, for example, be wrong to deliver a ripe example of this I witnessed as recently as...

"Men trust their ears less than their eyes."
Greek Historian, 484BCE-425BCE
Now, 2400 years after Herodotus, psychologists are completing experiments that confirm Herodotus' ancient wisdom...our eyes overrule our ears...truly, we do believe what our eyes see them do more than what our ears hear them say. This applies to their major actions and to their minor body-language signals.

Shape up, Man, you gotta improve your attitude!
Great advice in theory - useless advice in reality.
If you want to help people with negative thinking, think first about your own attitude, thoughts and action then learn how to improve by replacing negative thinking with new thoughts.

Of course, Sir Winston Churchill comes to mind, "Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never—in nothing, great or small, large or petty—never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."
Churchill, singularly, inspired a nation.
But, there's more to it...
Churchill inspired himself.

I've been digging the Nancy Whang / Juan Maclean collaborations, but this is something else. Full on 8 minutes of space disco/rock, in a Moroder style.
Space is the Place and I want this now. September (when the album drops) is way too long, like a trip to Mars…bodes well for the new LP, too. (sort of via Jeb 50 Pound Note 😉

All of my Smallville episode commentary has been moved to my journal.
Even though I watched Smallville up until Jonathan Kent died, I was often frustrated at the tension between it's flaws and it's potential. Even back in season 1 I wanted it to be more, wanted it to be better. Unfortunatley, Smallville isn't compelling.
Smallville is a world where we know the rules. We know where Clark came from, how he got here and why. There is very little mystery in this show, which was one of Roswell's strengths. The appeal then has to be the characters. Who is Clark Kent and how does life draw him into being Superman? And so far this season, I haven't seen enough of that for it to be as interesting as it should be. What Shiri lacked in the indefinable, Clark lacks in character development. It's as if the constrains of the Superman mythology are turning Clark into the flat character The Comics Code Authority defined in 1954. He isn't allowed to be much more than a cookie cutter good guy, which doesn't lend itself toward depth. Clark just does the right thing. His arrival on Earth killed probably hundreds of people. Every time he looks at Lana and Lex he has to know that his existence altered their lives forever. Every abnormality he fights, he also caused. He has to guard the secret of his origins so closely in the face of a best friend who's determined to expose him. And as much as Buffy's lifestyle keeps her from being normal, Clark's very physiology separates him from everyone he's surrounded by. They acknowledge these things, but just brush by them, without allowing the weight of these realities to penetrate the characters and give them something more. Tom Welling really isn't given much to work with. Of course, neither is Allison Mack or John Schneider. The only person who gets to be interesting, who gets to really do anything at all, is Michael Rosenbaum.
Lex is the most interesting character on the show, partly for the same reason that Clark ought to be. We want to know as much about how Lex becomes Lex as we want to know how Clark becomes Superman. Only, Lex is allowed to explore this. Lex has a domineering and manipulative father. Lex lost his mother and a younger brother and feels mostly alone in life. Lex is secretive, and cunning and sometimes subversive, but he's always as in control as he can be. Life is a giant chess board to Lex. That's interesting. That's the kind of development that the other characters deserve.
The Smallville foundation has been pre-written through the Superman comics. Obviously, they've deviated in a few ways, but the general foundation of Krypton and kryptonite and its effect on Clark still exist. Unfortunately, the foundation here is as much of a weakness as it is a strength. I believe the foundation of the Superman mythology is what limits the Smallville episodes in scope. Who hasn't noticed the formula of mysterious danger, bad guy, big fight, Clark wins? I wonder if the writers just haven't figured out how to let these characters live life in a world that has been determined since 1938. It's easy to give the audience a story where Clark saves the day. Isn't there anything else to do? Isn't there anything more to say about these characters? Don't you think that becoming Superman is a road that has more along it than just rescuing Clark's trouble prone friends?
One thing that would help dramatically is for things to actually matter. Clark is indestructible. There isn't a bad guy who can stop him, or hurt him without enough meteor rocks. So, really, how much of a threat do the bad guys offer? Lana's already dating another guy, so that doesn't matter. Chloe likes Clark, and while his devotion to Lana could make that interesting, Chloe's acceptance of that devotion makes her interest not matter. The choices these characters make should change what happens next. In Smallville, there are no choices. Lana is with Whitney. Chloe researches the mysterious. Even when Chloe's affection for Clark is revealed he apparently forgets it until 3 episodes later where it's a new and troubling revelation. Clark saves the day. Lex intersects, but has his own thing going. Jonathan and Martha support Clark and keep his secret. And even if there were choices, they wouldn't matter because tomorrow is a new day, a new villain and Clark will save everyone.
Smallville is exceptional at giving us subtle quotes from the characters that reference the Superman mythology in delightfully ironic ways. Smallville also has superb special effects most of the time. Lex really is cool and it's interesting to see his friendship with Clark develop, knowing where it leads.

Mike, the Happy Cabbie, arrived early and exactly on time to take us on our long visit to The Burren. It was a cold and rainy day, not looking very great for all the places we planned to get out and walk a bit, but not so heavy that we couldn't do anything. One of those wait and see days….
We were well fortified with the huge Irish breakfasts which Mary served us. Her's were the best of the Irish breakfasts we ate. Her puddings were better and I just loved the way she cooked my sunny-side up eggs, which were neither runny nor hard, just that perfect place in between. Yellow goo!.
Mike fancies himself a comedian, which seems to be the case with all the Irish tour guides, and as we headed out of Ennis and toward our first stop at the Burren Visitor's center at Kenfora, he rattled on about Irish history, often illustrating things with a joke.
One was quite special since it was both funny and illustrative of an important moment in Irish history. As Mike told it: During the famine of 1845-48 millions of Irish either died or immigrated, especially to the U.S. At that time no Irish Catholic could own land, only Protestants. But, some Protestant groups did respond to the natural catastrophe of the potato famine and they ran soup kitchens. However, there was a price to be paid: If you wanted the soup, you had to convert to Protestantism, and for many that meant a change of name. As you know many Irish names begin with an "O" or a "Mc" or a "Mac" and so on. Those prefaces to the name were especially Catholic. So, if you wanted the soup you would have to change your name from, say, O'Connell or McDuffy to Connell and Duffy respectively. All this, said Mike, for a lousy watery soup which barely kept you alive.
As the years went on this name change became an identifier and if one retained one 'O' or 'Mc' and such, one was proud of one's family's ability to "keep the faith." and not have taken the hated soup.
The story Mike told takes place nearly 100 years after the famine in the time of WWII. As he tells it an important politician in Dublin was Mike O'Gorman. He was very popular and even an honest politician (okay, so I don't believe EVERYTHING Mike says). One evening at the local pub Mike O'Gorman was tipping a pint of Guinness when one of his neighborhood folks came in and very sincerely thanked Mike for his work and praised him, but getting his name wrong, saying, "Mr. Gorman, you're a good man for the distinct."
Mike leaped up, fire in his eyes, and screamed out: "O'Gorman, man, O'Gorman, we didn't eat the god dammed soup!"
A few more jokes later, and some wonderful natural history of the landscape we arrived at the tiny Burren Center. That was a great stop. We had to pay about 4.5 Euros each, but first there was a short film -- 15-20 minutes -- on the natural history, the flora and fauna of the Burren. So interesting. Then they opened a room for us and we went into the "Walk through history in the Burren." What a marvelous and well-done place. It was a set of curving hallways, lined with exhibits of The Burren as reconstructed in its natural history, from pre-historic times to the present. It went on and on, and was easy to spend nearly an entire exciting hour in that set of curing corridors.
Next we were back in the car and headed into The Burren itself. Here we first got FULL confirmation of what I have been maintaining in this whole journal -- the value of traveling by bus and not by car. Alas, there are no buses which can get much into the Burren, so a car (or bike or foot) are the only options. But, one can see very little. Mike has a lovely Mercedes cab, comfortable and such, but low as cars are. The stone walls, which line every road, are higher than the passengers sitting in the car, thus one can see so little. Having been on several buses up to now all over the place we were completely spoiled and terribly disappointed that we could see so little of the landscape. While I always had suspected this fact, it wasn't until we had done considerable touring in the buses and then expeiecing that radical contrast in Mike's cab that it really hit home was a TOTALLY different experience it is to tour in a bus than a car.
Mike's first stop was a small ancient church, and at that moment it wasn't raining so we got out and walked about. This is where the guide is a great help. He just knows this stuff backwards and forwards and is filled with detail and dates and such. I think at times a guide is worth more for what they know than their transportation. On the other hand, you also have to live with lots you don't want to know, or some very bad jokes as well. Mixed bag there.
The trip was long and marvelous. My favorite place is the huge dolman -- Druid burial altar -- in the center of the Burren. When we arrived there it was just pelting rain. We had our rain gear and really wanted to walk out into the rocky, moon-like area and get up to the dolman. Mike insisted there was no rush, we should just wait a bit. He was so insistent. We waited. And within 10 minutes the driving rain let up and just a slight drizzle was left. We got out, and much to our surprise, so did Mike and he walked with us across the stony field to the dolman. Now they have it roped off and you can't approach fully (same as they do for Stonehenge in England). 20 some years ago when I was there there weren't any fences at all, no any other people either.
A decent photo of the dolman may be found at:
Photo of the Dolman
While we were there a group of cyclists came along. Oh my goodness they were utterly drenched and just freezing. I was so happy that we had changed our plans. Originally we were staying not at Ennis, but a tiny village in the Burren and were going to rent bicycles for three days of private touring. That fell through when the lady at the B&B wrote me that the bike rental place wasn't open that time of year, so we cancelled and opted for this cab tour. Wheeee, given the weather I was very happy. Those poor cyclists were just trembling and there is no shelter for miles and miles from where we were.
We pressed on and the rain persisted. We did get to see everything I had hoped we would, but didn't get out any more since it was just pouring.
After we left the Burren and moved to the coastal part of The Burren, the rain let up and it even cleared up some. This is when Mike sprang his surprise. I had thought I was utterly insistent: We just wanted The Burren, and didn't need any other parts of his tour. He had agreed to that. Now he said: Well, we have to go back to Ennis anyway, and this is one of the greatest roads in the area and almost no tourists have any idea of this road. No buses can use it since it is too narrow.
And then we took the sea road from Ballyvaughn to right before one gets to Doolin. It was a good 30 minute ride, maybe more and it was stunning, just stunning. On the left were the high hills of stone and rock that make up the western face of The Burren, so utterly stark without a blade of grass or anything else growing, just the eerie and awesome landscape. On the right, since we were headed south, was the Atlantic Ocean, and a very rough coast line with crashing waves. There were some fields both between the road and the sea and the first 50-100 years east of the road before getting to the rocks of The Burren. Here there were the constant stone walls and lots of sheep.
It was a very marvelous trip, rain and cold or not, and we returned to Ennis so very happy we had hired Mike, The Happy Cabbie, who does live up to his name. We asked to be dropped at The Old Ground Hotel to have a late meal, and Mike said he'd come in since he wanted to introduce us to his wife, who is a waitress there.
Despite the fact that the lunch time was long over and it was yet a bit too early for the dinner hour, it was packed. We did meet Mike's wife, but no table was open in her station, and besides were really hoped to get a table up in "the poet's corner." And we did, the table we liked the best, surrounded by all this lovely dark wood, and the books in the shelves behind the booth, the old red velvet-looking stools -- it was such marvelous atmosphere, and we had another stunning Old Ground meal.
By the way, after my last note about our arriving in Ennis and being guided to The Old Ground Hotel by our landlady, my former grade school classmate Larry Hillebrand, who is on this list wrote to say:
On our recent trip to the Old Sod, we stayed in the Old Ground Hotel in Ennis for several days. This was our central location for day trips touring of Western Ireland. A great place, great pub, great music, good eating... . Sometimes staying in hotels is worth it..... Larry
As I had mentioned we were not living at the hotel, but about 200 yards down the street at the Grey Gables B&B. But what a coincidence that Larry had stayed at the place we ate at for four awesome meals. (Two of those come several days later when we will return to Ennis.)
The Burren remains one of my favorite places in Ireland. However, it is hard to figure how to see it. I've been there three times, twice in a rental car, once in a cab. I would still like to visit The Burren by bicycle, over several days. It would be a hilly and difficult ride. It's definitely and up and down world. But The Burren cries out for slow movement, time to see and relish one of the most unusual Landscapes on the planet Earth.
Hmmmm, walking it? That's another option. There are definite walking trails and maps of those trails. That might well be an option as well.

David and Jan want to maintain their charitable giving at about 10% of their gross income, but they are concerned about the tax implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and want to better understand their options.
What We Learned
David and Jan are enjoying an active and secure retirement – debt-free. They regularly volunteer in their community, serve on a couple of boards, and donate to charitable organizations in cash.
They both receive social security, as well as income from their investments, rental properties, and David's pension. They will be turning age 70 ½ this year and are required to take an annual Required Minimum Distribution (RMD) from their individual retirement accounts.
Our Solutions
Under the new Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, they can no longer deduct all their state and local tax1 and they do not have mortgage interest, so David and Jan will not be itemizing deductions. As a result, their current charitable donations will no longer provide any tax savings.
In lieu of their current cash donations, an alternative tax-savvy strategy for charitable giving could be considered – Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs). For individuals over the page of 70 ½, Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) allow for individuals to use a QCD to direct all or a portion of an RMD to be distributed to a qualified charity without counting the distribution as taxable income.
Instead of writing personal checks, David and Jan can complete IRA distribution forms that direct a portion of their RMD to each of their desired charities. The charitable organizations would continue to receive much needed support, while David and Jan could benefit from reduced taxable income.

Killing America's deadliest sniper: Eddie Ray Routh on trial for Chris Kyle murder
EX-MARINE Eddie Ray Routh is standing trial for the murder of Chris Kyle, the US Navy Seal whose combat exploits in Iraq inspired the Oscar-nominated film
The American Hero, Chris Kyle who was murdered at a shooting range by an ex-marine
If he had gone on a wild killing spree slaughtering President Barack Obama, Angelina Jolie and Bambi, Eddie Ray Routh could not be more reviled in America than he is today.
A deeply troubled former US Marine and Iraq war veteran 27-year-old Routh stood in the dock this week at the opening of his trial for murdering the United States' best loved modern war hero Chris Kyle.
Navy SEAL Kyle's memoir of his days as America's most lethal killing machine during four tours in Iraq became a national bestseller.
It inspired the movie American Sniper, which a month after release continues to dominate US cinemas and is still in the UK's top 5 films, with nominations for six Oscars including best picture and leading actor Bradley Cooper.
Routh's lawyers argued that a fair trial is impossible in Texas, where Kyle, a tobacco chewing good ol' boy with a cowboy swagger and 160 confirmed kills notched on his sniper's rifle, is a sainted figure, and where state governor Greg Abbott declared February 2 "Chris Kyle Day".
American Sniper, playing three times daily at the Cinemark Cinema 6 just three miles from the courthouse in Stephenville, Texas, has broken US box-office records and Kyle's celebrity overshadows the town and the trial.
"The film will be an issue," warns Routh's lawyer J Warren St John, who doubts that an impartial jury could be found in the Lone Star State.
Kyle supporters line the streets to the courthouse and queue for hours for the few coveted seats inside. Chris Kyle baseball caps are on sale at the Grand Entry Western Store, where owner Chick Elms, 68, says: "They're not seeking the death penalty, which I think is hogwash."
Former Marine Cpl. Eddie Ray Routh appears in court
The tough-minded Texas culture would make it difficult enough but this veteran has the additional burden of having killed a bona fide Texas hero
Police are spending $1 million for security to protect Routh from vengeful assassins. The trial has become a cultural phenomenon much larger than the book, the movie, and the criminal charges.
Just as the film debated what war does to soldiers, so the trial shines a spotlight on what war does to America, sparking controversy and debate over what it means to be an American hero.
"God, country and family," was Kyle's credo, inculcated in the military and deeply ingrained in the fabric of Texan life. In secular Britain it can be hard to comprehend the visceral power of that jingoistic tenet of faith.
Only in Texas have I seen grown men well up while singing the national anthem as if they mean every word. If America is the "land of the free and the home of the brave" Texas is its beating heart and Kyle was its apotheosis.
HIS memorial service was held at the stadium of the Dallas Cowboys football team in Arlington, Texas, where Kyle's coffin was placed on the 50-yard line, draped in the Stars And Stripes flag.
He was buried alongside Texas senators and governors at Texas State Cemetery. A life-size bronze statue commemorates his heroism.
"If ever there were grounds for an out-of-state change of venue this has to be it," said Brock Hunter, a Minneapolis lawyer who specialises in defending war veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), which Routh suffered.

"The tough-minded Texas culture would make it difficult enough but this veteran has the additional burden of having killed a bona fide Texas hero."
The judge disagreed, refusing to move the trial from Texas, a decision likely to be raised on appeal. Nobody disputes that Routh killed Kyle, 38, and his friend Chad Littlefield, 35.
Kyle, who left the military in 2009 but often counselled soldiers with psychological problems, was asked to help Routh, a suicidal ex-Marine who had been in and out of psychiatric wards.
It seems incredible that Kyle took Routh to a shooting range but in Texas that's akin to hanging out at the pub.
Yet Kyle soon realised that Routh was troubled. Driving to the range on February 2, 2013, Kyle texted Littlefield: "This dude is straight up nuts."
At the range Routh, numbed by marijuana and whisky, shot Kyle five times in the back and once in the head. He put seven shots in Littlefield, then stole Kyle's truck. Soon caught, Routh confessed but claimed he was struggling with forces "eating at my soul" and had killed Kyle because: "If I did not take his soul he was going to take mine."
He has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity and faces life imprisonment without parole if convicted.
Yet while Texas mourns the loss of an all-American icon, Kyle's book and film – the highest-grossing war movie ever made – have divided the nation and his slaying has ignited a firestorm of controversy.
American Sniper portrays Kyle as morally conflicted but critics have branded the real-life Kyle an unadulterated "killer" for his bloodlust in Iraq, where he called locals "damn savages" and said: "I only wish I had killed more."
Veterans have questioned his death count: Kyle claims he killed 255, though the Navy could confirm only 160. He claimed to have shot another 30 people in New Orleans when chaos erupted after Hurricane Katrina – again, unverified.
After leaving the military Kyle seemed eager to burnish his reputation as a killing machine. He claimed to have slain two would-be car thieves, though police found no evidence of such a shooting.
American Sniper has also become a symbol of US ideology, provoking attacks from critics who claim the film glorifies war and sanitises Kyle, whom they view as just a racist with a gun.
Film-maker Michael Moore, whose uncle was killed by a Second World War sniper, said: "We were taught snipers were cowards."
That is of little concern to Kyle's widow Taya, 40. The mother of two young children sobbed in court this week recalling their final farewell: "We said we loved each other and kissed and hugged like we always did."
But Kyle's years in Iraq took their toll and he had confessed: "We struggled to keep our marriage together."
Kyle believed in doing the right thing. After hearing President George W Bush declare (wrongly) that Iraq was behind the attacks of September 11, 2001, and had weapons of mass destruction, he signed up without hesitation.
Yet the same war that made Kyle a hero also devastated Routh psychologically. If the trial proves anything it may be that both men are equally the legacy of America's faith in "God, country and family" – a holy trinity praised more in word than in deed.

I used to hide that we were a 2e family because I was afraid we'd be misunderstood, judged, and excluded. But three years ago I stopped all that when I came out of the 2e closet where I had been hiding. Now we celebrate my 2e daughter's gifts; and I hope to encourage, or maybe even persuade, you to do the same.
What does it mean to come out of the 2e closet? I spent the first nine years of my 2e daughter's life hiding that she was twice exceptional. Was I doing this deliberately? Not really. I was just afraid people would not understand her, possibly make fun of her, judge her unfairly, or worse… damage her self-esteem. So I did what I could to try to fit in, in hopes of saving her.
Because social situations were challenging for my daughter, I pre-empted activities by endlessly practicing with her what to say, how to say it, and when to say it to prepare her for any social situation. We took socializing classes, I read books and blogs, and I spent a lot of time strategizing how to help her have success. I also made sure I was always present in order to offer guidance. I was there for any class, activity, or moment in her life. I became her Girl Scout leader, her club leader, her teacher for various classes (we homeschool); and I was always the playdate host. We were together 24/7.
It was insane. Did it work? Nope.
Eventually, it occurred to me that it didn't work because we hung out with families that were neuro-typical. They were nice families that I enjoyed, but they didn't understand my 2e daughter or the needs of our 2e family. In some ways, we all got along; but, over time, the differences between us were growing. Then the relationships went from being fun to my worrying about how these people might be judging us.
They would loudly sigh or teasingly comment when my daughter couldn't sit still or when she invaded someone's space. In time, as invitations to their homes grew fewer, I started to wonder why we were spending time with people who thought my daughter was a problem. Then a new thought dawned: where are the people who see how awesome my daughter is?
It was a sobering day when I got my 2e kiddo's test results that indicated high giftedness with dyslexia, dysgraphia, PDD-NOS, etc. It was also validation. Now I understood why we didn't fit in, and I realized that these neurotypical relationships were not in our best interest. But if I let them go, I thought, who would we spend time with? Where would we find friends? Mentally I reasoned that we would surely find new friends; but emotionally I was scared and filled with doubt, afraid that we'd be lonely.
It took a year to slowly migrate away from neuro-typical families. It happened as I started to meet other parents at my daughter's speech and occupational therapy sessions. Slowly, I revealed who I was. The parents in the waiting room were just like me, afraid to talk about what was going on with their children for fear of judgment. But once we introduced ourselves, we found allies and began to swap stories and build supportive friendships.
For the first time, I started to look at my daughter's 2e differences as gifts instead of something to fix. I began understanding that the unique way my 2e daughter's brain operates is something to celebrate. Thanks to her unique gifts, she offers the world perspectives that no one else comes up with. She is honest, and she offers friendship completely based on trust, sincerity, humor, and generosity.
Now that I was celebrating my daughter's gifts, I decided to indulge her in one of her passions: Minecraft, a popular computer game. I started hosting a weekly Minecraft club where she could play, learn, and discuss Minecraft with other kids. It took a few months to get the word out and establish the guidelines. Then one day I looked around my home and counted over 18 kids all playing Minecraft together. The beautiful, amazing, unexpected surprise was that the kids who came to play were so much like her! In hind sight, it makes perfect sense that other kids with her 2e traits would have similar interests. A community was forming for her.
My daughter's new community adores her. They see her as a leader, a kind friend, and smart. They appreciate her gifts. Plus, these kids are all on the same social level. While they can be a bit blunt with one another, they show acceptance and honesty to each other; and they all have similar levels of energy and creativity. Seeing my daughter surrounded by kids who appreciate one other for who they are has brought joyful tears to my eyes more than once.
The Minecraft group grew from a club into a community. My daughter was Skyping with these kids on a daily basis, collaborating with some on projects, writing together, and animating together. Five of our families even attended an annual Minecraft convention together! My eyes were opened wide to the fact that my 2e daughter did not need help with socializing, rather she needed help finding like-minded friends. Now that she has them, she feels confident to pursue other passions besides Minecraft, like writing songs, singing, and making movies of the original stories she writes. All of these are pastimes she can now share with others who love to do the same things, something that probably would have never happened if we were still trying to fit in with neurotypical families.
So, if you look around and see yourself surrounded by people who don't understand your 2e family, ask yourself as I did, "What am I doing here?" Consider branching out and trying new groups that might be a better fit. The joy you gain from finding families that love you for who you are and celebrate the gifts of your 2e child will far exceed your expectations. I encourage you to test my theory…and come out of the 2e closet.
Sarah Mitchell happily unschools her 12-year-old 2e daughter and 16-year-old neurotypical daughter, while their fluffy miniature poodle keeps them company. She loves to shop and decorate, as well as grow yummy vegetables while she dreams of someday owning chickens that will eat up all the snails. In her free time, she loves working as a mentor for 2e families over at www.2ecoaching.com

Quantum of Solace. Marc Forster, director. Paul Haggis, Michael G. Wilson, Neal Purvis, Robert Wade & Joshua Zetumer, script. Starring: Daniel Craig (James Bond), Mathieu Amalric (Dominic Greene), Olga Kurylenko (Camille Montes), Gemma Arterton (Strawberry Fields), Judi Dench (M), Jeffrey Wright (Felix Leiter), Anatole Taubman (Elvis), Giancarlo Giannini (Rene Mathis)
The new James Bond movie roars in with a car chase in the bright sunshine of the Italian Alps and ends with a confrontation in the darkness of snowy Kazan, Russia. Rarely pausing, this mega-million-dollar thriller races through Panama, Austria and Chile in less than two hours, with only occasional nods towards plot and character development. You'd think that after 45 years the Bond producers would be sure of their franchise but Quantum of Solace feels more like an uber-video game than a feature film.
The first Bond sequel, the film literally starts an hour after Casino Royale ends. That initial chase sequence occurs because Bond is carrying Mr. White, the main villain of the previous movie, into Siena to be interrogated by British Intelligence — including his boss, M. Naturally, more bloodshed ensues before the questioning can begin, because British Secret Service has been infiltrated by a spy working for White's organization, Quantum.
So the "quantum" referred to in the film's highly literary title is both a nefarious secret syndicate bent on exploiting the world and the "measure of understanding" that Bond needs after losing his love, Vesper Lynd, in the denouement of Casino Royale. If the movie has any dramatic propulsion, it's captured in Bond's angry refusal to deal with Vesper's death, which he channels into a series of murderous encounters with Quantum, the organization that caused her demise.
In a nice twist, the main villain, Dominic Greene, is a Quantum man who spouts the new ecological line favoured by bigwigs worldwide since Al Gore won the Nobel Prize. Yep, his name is Greene and his cover is that he's an environmentalist working for a "Greene Planet." He's not, of course; what he's after is water, which Bolivia, the site for most of the movie (with Chile as a stand-in filmed to represent the real country) has in plentitude.
Oil gets trotted out as a planetary concern that Quantum can use, too. In the most resonant shot in the movie, one of Bond's lovers, the aptly named Ms. Strawberry Fields, is found dead on their bed, her body covered from head to toe in oil. The gold covering the equally dead body of a Bond lover in the iconic '60s film Goldfinger has been reclaimed — temporarily — as oil. But as docs as varied as Flow and Blue Gold and books like the current Coach House hit HTO have shown, it's water that will replace oil and gold as the most precious object while the scarcity-based 21st century unfolds.
Woops! What about the film? Though scriptwriter Paul Haggis has included intriguing political content about water and oil, he's been less successful in creating a plot. The film lurches through endless improbable but dramatic scenes that seem to have been assembled like interchangeable Lego parts. No discernible relationship is created between Bond and his ostensible "girl" Camille, apart from the fact that both are fixated on revenge — in the woman's case, on the murder and rape of her family by a Quantum ally, General Medrano, who wants to conquer Bolivia.
Lots of big scenes of destruction take place throughout the film. If you go to Quantum of Solace, you won't be bored. As the public used to say, these producers know how to "blow stuff up real good." But apart from one amazing scene where Tosca is staged in post-modernist style with a huge video monitor showing an immense eye as the dramatic conclusion is sung — and more Bond shenanigans ensue — nothing in this film is truly exceptional.
Wait for the next Bond: Daniel Craig is brilliant. But give him a story!

Let's explore over two examples that are shipped with GNU Radio. We start off with a very simple dial tone generating example that is done in Python. The second example uses both GNU Radio Companion (GRC) and Python for different stages of the example.
In either case, we will be actually working with Python code and the modules as they exist in Python. However, in the following discussion, we will refer to each block using the full C++ namespace so that we can easily link to the block's documentation inside the manual.
The example files discussed in this page are installed with the documentation and are located in $prefix/share/doc/gnuradio-$version/.
This example is found in the dial_tone.py file and constructs a very simple GNU Radio application that combines two sine waves to create a dial tone. It calls a function to construct the flowgraph which handles generating the signal sources.
The build_graph function sets up the sampling rate, which we will use to set the rate of the audio sink as well as the amplitude, which we use to scale the signal to control the volume of the output. We then create a top_block. The top_block is the object that holds the flowgraph, the basic data structure of a GNU Radio application. We will use the top_block to connect together and hold the signal processing blocks, which we build next.
This example uses three signal processing blocks. The first two are gr::analog::sig_source_f blocks, which generate sine waves at frequencies 350 and 440 Hz. We next create the connection to the speaker system using gr::audio::sink, which takes in the sample rate it will use to produce the output signal. The audio sink block can also take in a second parameter to set the output device name, which we use if there is a resource conflict or if using a sampling rate that the hardware won't naturally support. Common device names are "pulse" if using PulseAudio or "plughw:0,0", which is an ALSA device that can handle resampling.
We next take the three blocks we've built and connect together the flowgraph. The flowgraph connects sources to sinks through other signal processing blocks. Here, we are directly connecting two sources to a single sink. The next example uses more complex flowgraphs to further explore these concepts. The two lines containing the "tb.connect" statements are where the connections are made. The flowgraph will look like:
sig_source_f (freq = 350) --> audio.sink sig_source_f (freq = 440) -->
We're inputting two signals into a single block, which with the audio sink allows us to output in stereo. The two signals combine to form the dual frequencies of a standard dial tone.
In the connection of the signal source to the audio sink, notice how we specify the sink as a Python tuple, (dst, X). Technically, we specify all connections as ((source block, port out), (sink block, port in)) because each block that outputs samples can have multiple output ports just as a block that receives samples can have multiple input ports. However, in the case of a gr::analog::sig_source_f, it only produces samples on a single output and so the output port of 0 is implied. Otherwise, we could write this as "tb.connect((src0, 0), (dst,0))" for complete representation of the connection.
When we are done connecting the blocks, we have a flowgraph in the object "tb". While it's connected, the sources are not generating any samples. We have to start running the flowgraph. In the main section, we return the top_block object and then call the "start" function on it. This is a non-blocking call that launches the flowgraph's main thread, which initiates the sources to start sending samples through the flowgraph. We then block until the user presses "Enter" at which point we call the flowgraph's "stop" function to shut it down.
This example can be done completely in GRC or both GRC and Python. We will generate an FM signal using GRC first and then using either a GRC program or an example in Python to demodulate and play it back.
We first launch GRC using the terminal command "gnuradio-companion". This starts the graphical interface to create our flowgraphs. We won't explore the GRC interface here; just use it to generate a data file. With GRC launched, open the file "fm_tx.grc". Exploring this flowgraph, it generates the dial tone frequencies, adds them together, resamples the signal so we can use integer upsampling in the wideband FM transmitter block (WBFM Transmit) and output the data. While this is happening, we're also outputting the original signal to the audio system as well as viewing it in time and frequency at different stages.
The intent of this example is to generate a frequency-modulated dial tone signal and save it to a file. While saving it to a file, we only want to generate a signal large enough to make use of it, but it doesn't have to be too large. So we put a gr::blocks::head block that limits the number of samples into the file sink. Once this block has seen N number of samples, it will stop the flowgraph. Meanwhile, we use a gr::blocks::skiphead block to ignore the first M samples, which helps us avoid the transients and group delay of the filters in the system.
We run this either using the menu "Build->Execute" or using the play button on the toolbar. It will run for a short amount of time and stop once the head has seen the items set in the "nitems" parameter. The result is a file "dummy.dat" that contains the complex FM samples.
The demodulator part is shown in both a GRC graph and as a Python script. Both the GRC graph, "fm_rx.grc", and the Python script, "fm_demod.py", do the same thing and basically reverse the stages of the modulator. It uses a gr::blocks::file_source to read the "dummy.dat" file we created previously. This is sent to the FM demodulator, which is simply implemented here using the gr::analog::quadrature_demod_cf. This demodulates the signal and converts the complex FM signal to a float signal.
We then resample it from the input signal at 200 ksps to the audio rate of 44.1 ksps. Because this resampling cannot be done using an integer decimation rate, we use an arbitrary resampler, the gr::filter::pfb_arb_resampler_fff block, that allows us to resample at any rate as well as filter the signal to the audio rate we want. The output of this block is filtered to a 15 kHz bandwidth at a sample rate of 44.1 ksps, which is ready for the gr::audio::sink block.
Both the GRC and Python files can be explored further to better understand the operations of the blocks.

After the lukewarm performances of earlier films, the box office is set alight once again by two big releases – John Abraham's Satyamev Jayate and Akshay Kumar's Gold. Gold, to nobody's surprise, is the front runner, raking in an impressive Rs 33.25 crore in just two days, though the second day saw a huge decline in earnings.
A Reema Kagti directorial, Gold is a fictionalised tale of the Olympic gold victory of Indian Field Hockey team, the first one as an independent nation. Akshay Kumar plays the manager of the team Tapan Das. The movie also stars Mouni Roy, Kunal Kapoor, Vineet Kumar Singh, Amit Sadh, and Sunny Kaushal.
Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted out the latest box office figures of Gold. "#Gold witnessed a decline on Thu… Biz should gain momentum from today onwards… Plexes hold the key… Wed 25.25 cr, Thu 8 cr. Total: ₹ 33.25 cr. India biz," he said.
Gold had received mostly positive reviews. The Indian Express film critic Shubhra Gupta, too, gave it 2.5 stars. She also praised Akshay Kumar's commitment to the role, writing, "It's not as if Akshay isn't fully there. He immerses himself in his role, playing the sad sack when things go awry, not above fooling his wife for some monetary handouts, falling about drunkenly after his alcoholic bouts, always redeeming himself by keeping his love of the sport squarely in the centre. But all this takes up much too much screen time, and takes crucial focus away from the game and the players."
Turns out, releasing Gold on the Independence Day was a great decision, and while the fall on the second day was expected, it still shocked. But the film should pick up again as the weekend is here.

Fantasy football: Top 10 waiver wire Week 11 pickups
Don't leave your fantasy football team stuck in neutral, try to boost it toward the playoffs by adding these waiver wire week 11 pickups.
Week 10 in the NFL saw the highest ratings of the season partially due to the end of the election and partially due to some very compelling and competitive games. While the NFL playoff races start to take shape, the fantasy football regular season has just a few weeks remaining before the playoffs. Even though there aren't many weeks left, you can still tweak your roster to help you get your team into the playoff position you're looking for. If you need a boost, check out these ten players who I think are the best widely available options on the wavier wire week 11.
Week 11 will be tricky for some owners since there are some key offensive units on a bye week. The Falcons, Broncos, Jets, and Chargers are taking the week off, so you'll need to get creative if you have been counting on players from those teams. If you find yourself in need of help that isn't currently on your roster, scroll through the following slides for my top 10 pickups from the waiver wire week 11 who can help you moving forward.
To help you in your search on the waiver wire, you can check out my waiver wire post each Tuesday morning here on FanSided.com. Each week, I focus on the top ten options who are available in more than half of ESPN leagues. As always, this season has been full of players who have stepped up off the waiver wire and contributed to the success of their team, and there are still good options available in many leagues. There is never a reason to leave your team abandoned or start a player you don't want to when there are so many solid options to consider. If there is someone available in your league who you think makes a better option than the listed top ten, you can ask my opinion on Twitter since these players don't include anyone available in less than 50% of ESPN standard leagues.
Each week, I make sure to include players at each of the main fantasy football positions: quarterback, running back, wide receiver, tight end, and team defense. The players are listed in the general order that I would try to add them, but be sure to take into account your league's specific roster requirements and your individual team's strength and weaknesses. I've included each player's ownership percentage as of Tuesday morning at the top of their page. If you're in deeper leagues or are looking for more options, check out the final slide of this post where I've listed some extra other options from the waiver wire week 11.
If you have any specific questions about your team or other players who may be available, you are welcome to drop them in the comments section at the bottom of the page or give me a shout out on Twitter. You can keep up with all our coverage by following @FansidedFantasy on Twitter and by dropping a bookmark on our fantasy football hub.
With those quick reminders out of the way, let's get started with the top 10 pickups from the waiver wire Week 11 which include some short-term options and some to grab and stash for later on this season.
Thomas Rawls-RB-Seattle Seahawks (47.6%)
Rawls has the most upside of any available player on the waiver wire week 11. So far this season, he's been a huge disappointment although he was drafted in the top ten running backs at the beginning of the season in many leagues.
Rawls was a high-risk pick coming off of his broken ankle last season and was forced to miss the entire preseason. He played the first two weeks of the season in limited fashion totaling just 25 yards rushing on 19 carries and 41 yards receiving on six catches. He sustained a fibula injury in that Week 2 game against the Rams, and he has been sidelined ever since.
Coach Pete Carroll said that Rawls is ready and fully expected to return this week against the Eagles. Rawls looked the part of a feature back last season when Marshawn Lynch was injured dominating with four games over 100 yards and even a 209-yard rushing game against the 49ers.
While he has the most upside, he does come with some risk as well since he is coming back after missing so much time and could e in a timeshare with Christine Michael and impressive rookie C.J. Prosise (more on him later). Ultimately, Rawls could be an RB1 in the next few weeks, but for now he's best left on your bench until he shows he's back. If you have the roster space to hold him on your bench for a week, grab and stash Rawls of the waiver wire week 11.
Rishard Matthews-WR-Tennessee Titans (35.1%)
For the second straight week, Matthews is in my waiver wire pickups since he has become a go-to part of the Titans offense which is allowing them to surge int the AFC playoff race. The Titans have had good matchups the last few weeks, but they continue with favorable plays through much of the rest of the season.
In week 10, Matthews only had three catches but he capitalized with 63 yards and another touchdown. He now has a career-high six touchdowns and has piled up all six in the last six weeks. Matthews hasn't put up a ton of yards with only one game over 75 yards, but his use in the red zone is enough to make him a usable player every week.
If you need a WR from the wavier wire Week 11, I'd look for Matthews as the first option that is widely available. He has great matchups the next two weeks against the Colts and Bears before a tough Week 14 draw against the Broncos. He doesn't have as high a ceiling as some of the other options, but he is the lowest risk pickup since he has established himself as the No. 1 receiver in Tennessee which makes him a WR2/3 even though the overall offense is still run-heavy.
Cameron Brate-TE-Tampa Bay Buccaneers (36.7%)
Another returning member of last week's wavier wire pickups is Cameron Brate who continues to be the best tight end addition. The un-drafted free agent from Harvard has stepped in for the many injured receivers in Tampa and become the second option for Jameis Winston along with Mike Evans.
Brate made it into the end zone in Week 10 against the Bears while catching a season-high seven passes and 84 yards. It was his biggest week of the year and it was his third week in a row with a touchdown.
The only reason Brate isn't a locked-in TE1 for the rest of the season is that he is in a tough matchup against the Chiefs this week, but he finishes with good matchups including two games against the Saints in most leagues' playoffs. If you need a TE from the waiver wire week 11, Brate would be my top pickup.
Cameron Meredith-WR-Chicago Bears (20.3%)
Earlier this season, Meredith was a great pickup while he was clicking with Brian Hoyer earlier this season and had back-to-back weeks of nine and 11 catches for over 100 yards. However, after Hoyer's injury, a bye week, and three straight weeks with just a single catch each week, Meredith is available in 80% of leagues heading into Week 11.
The reason that Meredith is back in a position to be a good fantasy play moving forward is that the Bears lost their No. 1 receiver to a suspension. Alshon Jeffery will miss the next four games after testing positive for PEDs leaving Meredith and Eddie Royal as the only healthy options with experience for Chicago who already lost Kevin White earlier this season to injury.
If Jay Cutler gives Meredith the kind of attention and targets that he usually gives Alshon Jeffery, Meredith will be a great starting option for the next four weeks. The four games that Jeffery will miss are matchups against the Giants, Titans, 49ers, and the Lions. For at least those games, Meredith should be owned in all formats although it's hard to start him with too much confidence after three straight games with just one catch.
C.J. Prosise-RB-Seattle Seahawks (30.7%)
If Thomas Rawls' owner was long-suffering and held on for his return, you can go with the youngster in the Seahawks backfield and roll with C.J. Prosise as a claim from the waiver wire week 11. Like Rawls, Prosise dealt with injury earlier this season, but he had a career night on Sunday against the Patriots.
In Week 10, he played 54 of 70 snaps against New England and ran for 66 yards on 17 carries while adding 87 yards on his seven catches. His 153 total yards were impressive, and he should definitely have a role in the passing game for the Seahawks who are desperately looking for offensive playmakers.
Prosise would be at the top of this list if it wasn't for Rawls impending return. With Rawls back to handle the early-down work, Prosise will probably settle in as a flex play in PPR leagues for the next few weeks. However, he's worth an add since Rawls has already had one setback this season. With the Eagles, Bucs, Panthers, and Packers in the next four weeks, Prosise has plenty of upside to like if Rawls takes longer to get back to 100%.
Tyreek Hill-WR-Kansas City Chiefs (9.9%)
The Chiefs were without Jeremy Maclin in Week 10, but they found a new fantasy-football relevant weapon in fifth-round rookie Tyreek Hill. Hill has been a dynamic weapon in the return game this season, but he has slowly been finding his spot in the offense as well.
Hill had a career-high ten catches against the Panthers in KC's comeback win this past week and ended up with 89 yards. He has found the end zone four times already this season although he didn't get into the end zone this week since the Chiefs didn't have an any offensive touchdowns.
His role moving forward is a bit of a question mark with Malin expected to return soon, but it was clear that the Cheifs were making a concerted effort to get him the ball in the second half. He has sky-high upside, but he is higher risk than the WR options higher on my waiver wire week 11 pickups.
Robert Kelley-RB-Washington (45.3%)
Getting a starting running back on the waiver wire week 11 is very unusual, but Robert Kelley is available in over 50% of leagues since he just took over the starting job from Matt Jones. While Jones has more flash and sizzle, the crash-and-bash style of Kelley fits well in Washington's conservative offense.
In his first week since claiming the starting RB job in Washington, Kelly battered his way to 97 yards on his 22 carries against the stout Vikings' run defense. He still isn't involved in the passing game very much and has jut two catches all season for negative one yard.
If you Kelley is still on your waiver wire, he's a solid option to go with for the coming week against the Packers. He has a rough schedule with the Cardinals, Cowboys, and Eagles, but he is a low-risk runner who would total good yardage and goal line work enough to make him a low-end RB2 or good flex play as long as he keeps getting all the work in D.C.
New York Giants D/ST (36.5%)
The Giants defense looked decent last night against the Bengals, but the real reason they're the top streaming defense form the waiver wire Week 11 is how bad the Bears were against the Bucs in Week 10.
The Giants held Cincinnati to just 20 points forcing one turnover with an interception and dropping Andy Dalton for three sacks. As experienced fantasy football owners know, thoug, so much of team defense is all about the matchup. The next few weeks the Giants own that category with matchups against the Bears and the Browns.
The Bears turned the ball over four times, gave up a safety and four sacks, and allowed a defensive touchdown to the Bucs last week while the Browns are still searching for their first win and struggling in every facet of the game.
Withe their favorable schedule and a good pass rush, the Giants are a defense to own coming down the stretch even though their fantasy football playoff matchups leave a lot to be desired.
Paul Perkins-RB-New York Giants (35.7%)
If owners in your league have already picked the Seattle running back situation cleanly off the waiver wire, there its till a way to get into a timeshare worth owning a piece of. Paul Perkins is a rookie out of UCLA who is earning a growing role in the New York backfield alongside Rashad Jennings.
Jennings has a good night last night, but Perkins played 40% of the offensive snaps and finished with 31 rushing yards on nine carries. He failed to haul in any passes but did draw three targets on screen attempts.
Perkins should continue to get at least around ten touches a game and with games against the Bears and Browns the next two weeks will be a decent flex flier. He'll need to claim a bigger piece of the workload before he's fully locked in as a weekly starter, but he's worth an add from the waiver wire Week 11 if you need RB depth.
Colin Kaepernick-QB-San Francisco 49ers (14.2%)
If you need a QB streaming option from the waiver wire Week 11, there aren't any obviously great options who are widely available. The best of the options that are out there for this week and a nice set of playoff matchups is Colin Kaepernick of the 49ers.
Kaep had his first rushing touchdown of the season against the Cardinals in Week 10 and totaled 55 yards on the ground while throwing for 210 yards and another touchdown through the air. He looked fairly comfortable in coach Chip Kelly's system and seems to be settling in more each week. He actually led the 49ers all the way back to tie the score against the heavily-favored Cardinals before Arizona kicked a last-second PF to pull out the win.
In Week 11, he plays the Patriots who have struggled on defense for much of the season. Pulling off a win in Tom Brady's return to Cali will be a tall task, but he should end up with good stat line in the good matchup. Looking further down the road, he faces the Dolphins and Jets the next few weeks and then has good matchups against the Jets and Falcons as the fantasy football playoffs arrive.
Other Waiver Wire Week 11 targets
These options are also available in over 50% of ESPN and make good pickups as well. They're listed in the general order that I would target them if the top 10 aren't available in your league.
QB: Brock Osweiler-Houston Texans, Carson Wentz-Philadelphia Eagles, Sam Bradford-Minnesota Vikings, Alex Smith-Kansas City Chiefs
RB: Dion Lewis-New England Patriots, James Starks-Green Bay Packers, Kapri Bibbs-Denver Broncos, Damien Williams-Miami Dolphins, DeAndre Washington-Oakland Raiders, Kenneth Dixon-Balitimore Ravens
WR: Eli Rodgers-Pittsburgh Steelers, DeVante Parker-Miami Dolphins, Dontrelle Inman-San Diego Chargers, Kendall Wright-Tennessee Titans, Adam Humphries-Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Anquan Boldin-Detroit Lions,
TE: C.J. Fiedorowicz-Houston Texans, Jack Doyle-Indianapolis Colts, LaDarius Green-Pittsburgh Steelers, Charles Clay-Buffalo Bills
D/ST: Titans D/ST, Washington D/ST, Buccaneers D/ST
