Many Mac users for one reason or another would like know how to record their Mac screen. For me, I want to be able to illustrate "how to" articles and tutorials for users, for some, they want to show their gaming buddies how awesome they are. So, whatever your reasoning, here is a free way to record your screen on Mac OS X using Snow Leopard or greater.
QuickTime Player – The Free Way to Record Your Screen (You need Snow Leopard or greater)
- Open up QuickTime Player – QuickTime can be found in your Applications folder. If you are unsure where that is, you can use Spotlight to search and open. Spotlight is at the very top right of your screen and looks like a magnifying glass. Just type "quicktime" in the search field and off you go!
- Select File > New Screen Recording
- Choose Your Screen Recording Settings – Use the drop down arrow to the right. If you want to record audio, then select the input device at the top. Medium settings seem to work great. Finally, choose the location to save each screen recording video on your Mac.
- Now Select the Red Record Button to Start Recording Your Screen – this should be pretty self explanatory. After clicking the red record button, click the Start Recording button.

U.S. Department of Defense to Buy 1,500 Chevy Volt Plug-in Hybrids [Updated]
Update: A representative from GM has informed us that "the DoD has yet to announce it's planned procurements for advanced technology vehicles", so apparently our sources for this story were inaccurate. We'll follow this one to see what happens (was this a leak that will only become official later, or was this just something someone made up?).
Get Ready for Some ControversyAll automakers are constantly trying to get big fleet buyers to pick their cars, and all big fleet operators must constantly juggle a variety of criteria to decide which model to buy. This mating dance resulted in the U.S. Department of Defense putting an order for 1,500 Chevrolet Volts. This will no doubt be controversial with the crowd who spent years saying that the Prius would flop, and who are now saying that the Volt will too. The fact is, we don't know how the Pentagon did the math. Chances are, some political considerations were taken into account, but they might have had more to do with reducing the use of oil from unstable corners of the world and, if most of the fleet doesn't drive huge distances, saving taxpayers money on fuel over time (what matters is total operational lifetime costs, not just the upfront cost of the vehicles).And no, the Volt doesn't cost $89,000 to make and GM isn't losing $49,000 on each one...
Besides, if the goal is to save taxpayers some money, those 1,500 Volts don't even add up to a single fighter jet, so budget hawks should probably look elsewhere first.

After my first intermediate examinations I was given the chance to plan and build a house in Portugal in the Algarve. It has been built entirely with limestone mortar and plaster.
It has been create a way that in winter you have passive solar gains and on the other hand uses cooler summer winds. As a result the temperature is never lower than 17 centigrade in winter and hardly ever higher than 28 centigrade in summer. No technical gadgets needed, just by orientation and ventilation.
In winter there are cold winds from the north-east. So houses are cooled down. When the wind changes and wind comes from the south-west, from the Atlantic, houses here become soaked with water. Therefore you can find fungi in almost all houses. No wonder so many people are complaining about sinusitis here in winter. Perhaps you have heard about the tradition of whitewashing houses at Easter. This is what it comes from. Important are therefore two layer walls with a ventilated gap, passive solar gains to keep the indoors temperature higher in order to drive the moisture out.

Mike Hawthorne Is Dead On In DEADPOOL
In the first arc of Gerry Duggan and Brian Posehn's Deadpool series they had him fighting dead U.S. Presidents…. And now he's chasing them. The Merc with the Mouth has apparently been stiffed by S.H.I.E.L.D. in terms of payment for the recent mission he's done for them, and instead of calling in the collection agency he's going in himself. We've seen Luke Cage chase down Doctor Doom for some cash he borrowed, but what will Deadpool do when there's money owed and S.H.I.E.L.D. is the one to blame? And what does Agent Coulson have to say about it?
It all starts this January in Deadpool #22, and Duggan and Posehn are being rejoined by artist Mike Hawthorne. Hawthorne's irreverent and explosive art style is tailor-made for Deadpool, and the writers are taking full advantage of that. Hawthorne is jugglingbeing one of the rotating artists of Deadpool along with doing a French graphic novel series and teaching classes at a Pennsylvania art school. What does he have to say about drawing Deadpool, and what do his students think of their teacher drawing the wise-acre that is Wade Wilson? Find out in our interview!
Newsarama: Mike, let's start with an easy one. What are you working on today?
Mike Hawthorne: Hey, Chris! How are you? Good to talk with you.
Earlier today I was wrapping up a big double page spread for Deadpool #23, as well as some layouts from my French book Oms En Série. I also hit a figure drawing session about an hour ago, where I churned out some figure studies.
Nrama:I've got you here today to talk about your return to Deadpool in January with issue 22. What brought you back, and what do you and Gerry and Brian have planned for this new arc?
Hawthorne: The plan was for me to stay on from the start, but with the bi-weekly schedule they wanted three rotating artists. Tony Moore couldn't stay on, so Declan Shalvey stepped in. Then back to me, with Scott Koblish in the middle. Editor Jordan White and Gerry have said they'd like me to stay on as long as I like, and I like so I stay!
As far as plans, man this arc is so intensely insane. Deadpool is still reeling from the events of "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly," so he's a little off kilter. More so than normal. He does some stuff in this arc that makes me feel... unclean. I need to go to confession after some of these pages. But it's making for some amazing stories!
I think Gerry and Brian are really on fire here. Fans who were worried that Deadpool would just be one big joke should see that Gerry and Brian have no intention of downplaying Deadpool's badassed-ness. Between Declan's arc, and this one, fans wanting to see Deadpool show off his wet-work abilities will not be disappointed.
We see Deadpool fighting like hell, not just the bad guys here in our world, but with the ones in his head. I mean that literally. Deadpool is a messed up character, and we're going to get to see that in this arc.
Nrama:I've seen Luke Cage track Dr. Doom to the edges of the earth to get some money he loaned him – what will Deadpool do to get the paycheck he deserves from S.H.I.E.L.D.?
Hawthorne: Not quite the ends of the earth, but he goes pretty far. Actually, that's not right. It's really about what he'll do to get his dough. And he'll do some ugly, uuuugggly stuff. But you get the sense it really more about getting some payback than getting some greenbacks. Dude is pissed.
Nrama: According to the solicits, we'll be seeing a famous agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. – Agent Coulson. I know you've got a great knack for likenesses, so what's it like taking Coulson on in this series?
Hawthorne: Thanks, man! I was pretty damned excited when I read he was in it! My kids flipped too, because they've grown to love him from the various movies and shorts. It was funny, they were more excited to hear he was in Deadpool than I expected! More so than when I got to draw Spider-Man in Deadpool. Coulson's got some juice with the kids!
At first I was going to really try and have our Coulson look as much like Clark Gregg as possible, but then decided to not hit it on the nose too much. I wanted to push his coolness up even more, in that way you can only do in comics, but still keep Gregg's charm in there. Hopefully I got it right.
Nrama: And since Agent Coulson is showing up in your Deadpool run, how do you think Marvel's Merc with a Mouth would make out if he got a guest-starring role on ABC's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. television show?
Hawthorne: How great would that be!? I would flip the hell out if they did that! And, with the story we're doing, it would really work!
Nrama: From now until Deadpool #22 comes out in January you're doing a unique giveaway on your Twitter. Can you tell us about that?
Hawthorne: HA! Yeah, I'm giving away a sketch card every day till the Deadpool #22 ships on January 8th. It's not just on Twitter though. Some days I may pick someone from Facebook, other days from my blog. It all depends. Today I hung out at a playground with my kids, drew a bit, then stashed a card in the park for someone to find. Most of the time I will be picking random Twitter followers to get a card.
It's all for fun, and honestly more for me than anyone else. I get a kick out of surprising people and it's cool to see how happy something as simple as a small sketch card can make someone.
I decided to start it earlier this month on November 4th because it was 66 days till 22 shipped. It happens to be coming up on the holiday season, a perfect time for gift giving, but I also giggle to myself when I think of the three 6's in there. I'm a big kid in that way.
Nrama: You've always been known for your raucous comics storytelling, so it might surprise people to know you keep a day job as a college instructor at the Pennsylvania College of Art and Design. What can you tell us about that?
Hawthorne: Oh, man! Yeah, I teach Concept Art at Pennsylvania College of Art and Design. I'd do more if I could, but my schedule just doesn't allow for it. Honestly, giving up time in the studio is tough and leads to some deadline crunches that usually result in all-nighters. But I love the school and the students, so I'm making the time.
Nrama: And how do the students reach when they find their esteemed instructor is slinging ink on one of comics' wackiest heroes, Deadpool?
Hawthorne: They've been really cool. They are usually more curious to know about how I work than anything else, but they're definitely aware of my other job. One student showed up to class in a Deadpool shirt, so obviously I gave her extra credit points!
The funniest thing was a few weeks back I cracked this terrible joke and one student said "Your Deadpool is showing", which made me laugh. They are a cool bunch of artists and I enjoy getting to work with them.

Subscribe To Duncan Jones Still Planning Mute But Not The Submarine Movie Updates
I've already subscribed
Moon director Duncan Jones is getting ready to debut his new sci-fi film Source Code at the SXSW Film Festival in March, and that movie's success (or lack thereof) will probably determine what the director is able to do next. Before he started work on Source Code he was putting together two different projects, an original screenplay called Mute that would include a cameo from Moon star Sam Rockwell, and an adaptation of a book about soldiers escaping from a sunken submarine in World War II.
Now you can narrow down his future options a little further; talking to a fan on Twitter, Jones revealed that he's no longer working on the submarine project Escape From the Deep, but he is hoping to set up one of two projects to do next, and Mute is one of them. No telling what the second project might be, though given that Jones is pretty free with information on Twitter, he's probably keeping that one under wraps on purpose for a while. After opening SXSW Source Code will go wide in theaters on April 1; for a taste of what Jones will definitely be showing us next, check out the Source Code trailer below.

> The first question is just an editorial question. I would prefer to > keep the versioning protocol as one document -- after all, when the > first paragraph of the introductions says: > > "An implementor that is only interested in core versioning should read > Section I (Introduction), Section II (Core Versioning), and Section > 15 (Report Option)." > > is a reader really all that likely to be confused? Yes, because in order to implement core, you also need to read, understand, and subset the information in the security considerations, i18n, IANA considerations, references, as well as understand and implement the error reporting extensions listed in the appendix, so you can properly report errors from VERSION-CONTROL. And these are just the ones I can list from memory. Plus, a core-only document would have a shorter introduction, and a shorter definitions section, making it ever so easier to understand. A core-only document would also appear much less intimidating, since, if printed double-sided, you could make a working paper airplane out the stack of papers. :-) - JimReceived on Sunday, 4 February 2001 16:36:04 UTC

Update from the Capitol 7/13/2018
Friday, July 13, 2018 - Posted 9:24:40 AM by Rep. Tom Bennett
As always, you can contact me via webform at www.repbennett.com, or by phone at (815) 844-9179 (Pontiac) or (815) 432-0106 (Watseka). Thank you for the honor of serving as our district's representative in Springfield.
Local fire departments receive state grants
The Office of the State Fire Marshal has announced that five local fire departments have received funding under the Small Equipment Grant Program. In all, more than 100 departments statewide were awarded a share of the $2 million in grant funds which were announced this week. The grant program is intended to help fire departments and not-for-profit ambulance services with purchases of small firefighting or ambulance equipment.
This year, five departments in our area were approved for these grants from the State Fire Marshal. They include the Martinton Fire Protection District and the Otto Fire Protection in Iroquois County, the Hoopeston Fire Department in Vermilion County, the Secor Fire Protection District in Woodford County and the Reddick Community Fire Protection District in Livingston County.
My congratulations to these departments, and my thanks to their members and all our fire and emergency services personnel for all that they do every day.
Keeping safe in the hot weather
We have already endured a very hot summer, and the traditionally hottest weeks are still to come. The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) is reminding Illinoisans of the many precautions you can take to keep yourself and your loved ones safe from extreme heat. IDPH is also making an effort to educate Illinoisans about the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
IDPH advises everyone to stay in an air conditioned space when daytime temperatures are at their hottest. Whether it is your home or a neighbor's, a public place like a library, a business or a government office, it is important to be someplace cool if possible. You should wear light clothing which will not absorb as much heat from the sun, and constantly drink water, not just when you are thirsty.
Perhaps most importantly: never leave anyone in a closed vehicle. This includes not only people but also pets. Temperatures rise very quickly in parked cars and exposure to those high temperatures can quickly lead to serious health problems.
If someone is exhibiting the symptoms of heat stroke, call 9-1-1 and get help immediately. These warning signs include a body temperature above 103 degrees, a fast, strong pulse, dizziness, nausea, confusion or fainting. Move the person to a cooler place out of the sun and use cool cloths to help. IDPH advises against giving a person with heat stroke anything to drink.
For more information on hot weather safety, visit www.dph.illinois.gov.
How much do we owe?
As of the time of this writing, the State of Illinois owes
in unpaid bills to state vendors. This figure represents the amount of bills submitted to the office of the Comptroller and still awaiting payment. It does not include debts that can only be estimated, such as our unfunded pension liability which is estimated to be more than $100 billion.
Governor visits Champaign
I had the honor of joining Governor Rauner in Champaign-Urbana last week as he and several officials visited Wolfram Research, Granular and A&R Mechanical Contractors. These are exciting, growing businesses in Champaign-Urbana that are helping to shape the future. The University of Illinois is a world renowned institution of higher learning and offers so much to students and communities in economic development.
Government needs to help support the development and growth of business, agriculture and the economy across this great state. Champaign-Urbana and the University of Illinois play a vital role in making this all happen. We need to be doing more to encourage local businesses like these to grow and expand, creating jobs and helping the state's economy move into the future.
New state Supreme Court justice seated
The Illinois Supreme Court has a new justice. Justice Charles Freeman announced his retirement this year before the conclusion of his 10-year term. Under the State Constitution, whenever there is a vacancy before a term has expired, the other justices of the Court appoint a new justice to fill the seat until it comes up for election. This year, the justices selected the honorable P. Scott Neville as his replacement. Justice Neville is a graduate of Washington University School of Law in St. Louis. Prior to his appointment to the state's high court, Justice Neville served for 14 years as an appellate judge.
In order to achieve some geographic balance on the state Supreme Court, the justices are chosen from five districts throughout the state. Justice Neville will represent the First District, which is made up entirely of Cook County. The Chief Justice is Justice Lloyd Karmeier, of Nashville, which is located in the southernmost district in the state.
Did You Know?
On Tuesday night, the best players in Major League Baseball will gather at Nationals Park in Washington for the annual All-Star game. The very first MLB All-Star game was played here in Illinois. Comiskey Park in Chicago, home of the White Sox, hosted the inaugural mid-summer classic the same summer as the kickoff of the Chicago World's Fair in July 1933. The American League won the game 4-2 on the strength of a home run by Babe Ruth, the first to be hit in an All-Star game.

Great Coum & Crag Hill - Sunday 10 May 2015
Time Taken
Total Ascent
Dent - Green Lane - Megger Stones - Great Coum - Crag Hill - Great Coum - Ralph's Moss - Nun House Outrake - Dent
Lay by near Church Bridge, Dent (Free) - Grid Ref SD706871
9 miles
Good tracks, open moorland which was sometimes pathless & boggy in places. The descent down Binks Brow is steep.
Overcast, strong winds with the odd sunny spell
4hrs 30min
2329ft (710m)
OL2 - Yorkshire Dales (Southern & Western areas)
Walk Description
The area of Dentdale is in the North West of the Yorkshire Dales National Park but is actually in Cumbria. The dale is the valley of the River Dee but takes its name from the village of Dent, where todays walk started from. Dent is a stunning village and was the birthplace of one of the founders of modern Geology, Adam Sedgwick. Visiting the village is like going back in time what with its cobbled streets and old buildings. Todays walk would take in Great Coum and Crag Hill, two lesser-known hills but worth venturing out to all the same.
Leaving the village we headed south east on a good path and immediately started climbing, gently at first then a little steeper to reach the toposcope at Flinter Gill. A short time after the toposcope a junction was reached and we then headed left towards High Moss along a good track called Green Lane. Leaving Green Lane, the route headed through a gate and we then doubled back on ourselves to climb quite steeply to the Megger Stones, a rash of gritstone Cairns & outcrops spread across the slopes of the hillside.
On leaving the Stones, the path became irregular and it was a simple question of hand railing the wall that led us all the way to the summit of Great Coum. The summit is pretty nondescript but gives good views over to Whernside & Ingleborough. The weather up to now, whilst dark and overcast was holding and with the visibility fair we decided to make the short hop over to the Trig Point on Crag Hill. A tad boggy on the transit but this was a pleasant out and back although we stayed on the less boggy right hand side of the wall when making our way back to Great Coum.
From Great Coum we had two options - either descend pathless directly east to come down via the quarry or follow the wall down Binks Brow. We decided to follow the wall down and although this descent was extremely steep it was on a stepped path for most of the way down until it levelled out near Green Lane. There now began a pleasant amble for about a mile along the lane before turning right to drop gently down Nun House Outrake before reaching Bridge End and joining the Dales Way, Dales High Way & Pennine Journey path all the way back to Church Bridge and the start of the walk.
Free parking on the edge of Dent Village - room for about a dozen cars

I re-read East_Asian_Width part of UAX44 to understand suggested wordings better. I'm fine with wordings John suggested (replaced "backgrounds" with "details" given Asmus's suggestion): The East_Asian_Width property of the Unicode database [UAX44] can be used to ... (see [UAX11] for more details on this property). But if you read UAX44, it merely says: See Unicode Standard Annex #11, "East Asian Width" [UAX11] and DerivedEastAsianWidth.txt for more details. And Property values are described in Unicode Standard Annex #11, "East Asian Width" [UAX11]. So, I suppose implementers have to read UAX11 anyway, and the link to the data file is in 6.3 Data File section in UAX11[1]. I couldn't find the link in UAX44. Either works for me, but this makes me feel that referring to UAX44 for East_Asian_width property adds one unnecessary route to the data file. I hope we're okay to use UAX11 directly, as I think it makes everyone's life a little easier.

The UAX makes clear that there are two levels of character classification, one of which takes into account context other than character properties. For many applications, the main issue is whether some characters behave like "wide" characters (i.e. similar to ideographic characters) or not. UAX#11 gives a prescription how to make this determination based on a number of basic character properties. However, one important class of characters in the data are "A" (for ambiguous). According to UAX#11, the intent for these characters is to use context to determine whether they need to be handled like ideographs or like "regular" characters - without applying this resolution step, characters of class "A" cannot be handled correctly. On a system that maps these characters to legacy character sets and uses legacy fonts, they would be displayed as "wide" characters, while, on systems that no longer follow these legacy practices some or all of these characters would be displayed as ordinary (aka narrow characters). Therefore, to handle these characters, one must know whether the environment treats (all or some of) them as a legacy system would. This contingent quality of the classification is something that's not apparent from the raw values in the database, and rises above mere "background" information. A./ PS: the same ambiguity in character handling carries through to UAX#14, based on the same issue: legacy and non-legacy systems, fonts, etc. differ fundamentally in how they represent certain characters, hence it is necessary to supply context.Received on Sunday, 8 May 2011 17:24:07 UTC

(I wonder if I'll ever be able to start a blog post without something along those lines...)
So here I am! Sittin in my room, sweating up a storm, every window open in this dang apartment trying to catch any semblance of a breeze. So far I've been unsuccessful. Game plan: rearrange my desk to sit directly in front of my window.
I've been having some lovely lovely times here! The fair was incredible (yay!) but now it's over (boo!). That was honestly an awesome way to start this trip! Instead of feeling cooped up in our own town, we were gifted with a 15 day celebration of Murcia! Now I'm ready to go explore other places :)
Here are a few photos of my lovely fair days. I will miss the days where people of all ages go out at night to the same place and go nuts!
Pastel de carne... mmmmmm
So many good memories!! Anyways, now I start real classes on Monday! The academic setup at the university level is way different then the U.S., making it extremely tough to find what classes I want/which are available/when are they. Students over here pick a major before they start freshman year, and from then on they have a fixed schedule all four years. They have a handful of classes that they choose from, but the rest are neatly organized and fit together perfectly. Then I come along and mess everything up, trying to pick courses from different majors and such. It's a little confusing but I'm teaming up with my friend Emily to pick out some classes we could possibly enjoy together. Teamwork!!
Here's some photos of my house! I would post a photo of my room but I think I'll save my mother the heart attack. BREAKING NEWS: Lauren's Room Is Messy.
But really, isn't my flat the cutest! Flat translates to "piso" in Spanish. Vocab lesson for the day is complete!
This is my kitchen!
The living room!
and the lovely terrace!
I'll rip the band-aid off early by saying I declined attending a bull fight last night. I honestly didn't know til this week that they actually kill the bull! Right in front you. Multiple. Bulls. No thank you. I came close to being upset at the parade, when I saw the horses forced to perform meaningless tricks that I'm sure they don't appreciate doing. All in all, the bull fight isn't worth it for me. I'll get just as much of the Spanish experience shoving my face with new sorts of tapas at the bar next door to the stadium!
What else is new... plans for trips are buzzing in the air. Next weekend a couple friends and I want to go to Granada. Seriously, everybody and their mom (literally, Lexi's mother) LOVES Granada and says it's the best. I'm more than willing to find out. Bring it!
Love you all and miss you!!!!
---Here are some photos that accompany last week's post
At Maria's with deeeeelicious paella!

I swear the ice cream is better here.

So, do you ever feel like you are losing your mind? I do. More often than I would like to admit, in fact. I was certain that I had posted a recipe for Stormboli on my blog sometime last year. I remember taking the pictures and everything. However, when I looked for the recipe, it was nowhere to be found! I even did a search and turned up nothing.
Consequently, when I made Stromboli the other day, I decided to take new pictures and waste no time getting them posted. I make this at least once for supper during the harvest season because it is so good and easy to eat while driving machinery. Stromboli is a great, easy meal that you can customize to your family's tastes. I put pepperoni on one half for my spice-loving little guy, and ham on the other half for my girls. Feel free to experiment with your favorite pizza toppings on this one!
Here's the recipe:
1 loaf frozen bread dough, thawed (or use your favorite bread dough recipe. I like this one!)
Olive oil
Your favorite toppings--I use sausage, pepperoni, Canadian bacon or ham, etc.
Mozzarella cheese
Parmesan cheese
Roll dough out very thin on a floured surface. If you like to make your own dough, you have got to check out the recipe for quick bread dough by Something Swanky. It is ready to go in about 20 minutes, and it rolls out perfectly. Check out the link to the recipe in above. The only change I made was to use 1 cup whole wheat flour and 1 1/2 cup all purpose flour instead of 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour.
Anyway, like I said, roll your dough very thin on a floured surface so that it doesn't stick; probably about a 20 by 15 inch rectangle. (I divided my dough into two parts and made two Stromboli.) Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with oregano. Add toppings. Be careful not to get too crazy with the toppings or your Stromboli will not bake well. Starting with a long side, roll up as tightly as possible. Seal the ends and place, seam side down, on a greased baking sheet. (I like to use a baking stone for this.) Brush the top with olive oil.
Bake at 350 degrees for twenty to thirty minutes or until done. You can rub a stick of butter over the top of the Stromboli before cutting into slices if you like!
Tip: You can also freeze this for a quick meal later. After rolling up your Stromboli, place on a baking sheet that is covered with waxed paper. Freeze for an hour or two, then wrap with up tightly with cling wrap (or Glad Press and Seal--I love that stuff!) and foil. When ready to bake, place on greased baking sheet and put in cold oven. Turn to 350 degrees and bake approximately 40 minutes or until done.

It can be a daunting task to face the world and try to figure out any kind of universal truth from the storm of reality that greets you. It's like looking out on a hurricane whose swirling winds are made up of countless images, voices, ideas, policies, religions, studies and proclamations, all of which bellow their unchanging truths, many of which contradict each other directly, clashing in an eternal struggle for dominance. THIS is the way, proclaims one religion, THAT is the truth states one scientist, THERE IS NO TRUTH say some people in reply, and it's easy to sympathise with them in the face of this onslaught.
Those of you reading this as you face the hurricane will have your own approach to interpreting reality…
There will be readers with an established belief system, a religion, god or gods to look to for truth, a church, synagogue, mosque or brotherhood within which to shelter. If this is the case, you look about you and the world must still be tumultuous, but your faith probably helps you to organise the chaos into a coherent system of morals and a sense of personal direction.
At first thought it may seem like everyone can be described in this way if you replace prophets and holy books with scientists and textbooks, gurus and mantras, politicians and newspapers, celebrities and gossip magazines, or whatever acts in the place of traditional faith for each individual. However, there must be a large number of people who are undecided or confused, whose response to the storm is not to find a belief system but to switch off and hide from it, become overwhelmed and upset by it, or simply decide that it's unimportant as they go about their daily lives… which after all, still need to be lived, whatever you believe!
And it becomes more complicated still… there are surely people who respond with the intellectual rejection of any solid reality, who decide that everyone's reality seems totally and utterly different from everyone else's. Other people may profess a specific belief or faith whilst being plagued by doubt in the form of questions that no-one seems to be able to answer. Still others might pick and choose from many belief systems, constructing a complicated web of ideas to support them in hard times.
As you read this, only you know with any accuracy where you fall within the full range of beliefs and/or non-beliefs in the world, and regardless of your faith or lack thereof, I don't think it's hard to sympathise with believers and non-believers of all kinds. In their private minds, everyone's experienced a variation of unflinching belief and niggling questions about everything the world has to offer.
So, we face each other across the storm: I'm the writer and you're the reader, but our roles might easily reverse if you wanted to reply to me. As far as I'm concerned writing this, you could be anyone, yet there is real communication between us, and the real potential of extending it into conversation. I hope that with these words, I've talked about a range of ideas and observations that you've probably recognised and understood if you've come this far. I'm not sure if you agree with everything I've said, but if you disagree, what an incredible basis of language there is to disagree with, what an amazing sense of understanding there is in the simple fact that you can read what I write!
Just a handful of sounds with corresponding symbols can be arranged in infinite, yet highly organised combinations to communicate, discuss and examine anything that pops into our heads! If you were unclear about an idea, I could use words and ideas you're familiar with to introduce you to it, and you could use the same sets of words to introduce me to new ideas! We can share experiences that we're likely or certain to both have had: waking up, going to sleep, eating, drinking, listening, seeing and feeling the world that we share, countless things that we share, countless things that we've both experienced… and we might not even know each other! When used well, our language cuts through the hurricane like poetry through butter, describing, commenting, analysing, comparing, debating, exclaiming or celebrating, and all so that others might understand us, or come to understand us in time.
If there is no truth, no discernible structure to the world, how can language have such a beautiful and functional structure, how can it be translated from any current culture to any other? If there is no shared reality, if each human is so different from the next, how can we potentially share so much, how can we come to understand each other on so many basic but profound matters, regardless of our beliefs? Or is such a thing impossible? It's food for thought… and discussion! Over time, I hope to produce a series of connected blog entries on truth and communication that form a sort of narrative, and I hope that anyone who reads it will reply with their own thoughts and challenges to my ideas and observations.

I've been tinkering with an Internet of Things project at home for a while which I'll write up in due course, but in the course of doing so have knocked up a few useful fragments of function that I thought I'd share in case other people need them. The first of these is a simple Node.js app to send an SMS message via Twilio using IBM Bluemix.
There's lots of material on Twilio and Bluemix but by way of a very rapid summary, Twilio provide nice, friendly APIs over telephony-type services (such as sending SMS messages), and Bluemix is IBM's Cloud Foundry-based Platform-as-a-Service offering to enable developers to build applications rapidly in the cloud. Twilio have created a service within Bluemix that developers can pick up and use to enable their applications with the Twilio services. One of the things I wanted for my application was a way of notifying me that something had happened, and a text message suited my needs nicely. Twilio provide a free trial service with a few restrictions which you can upgrade once you want to do something serious.
To begin with, I created myself a Node application on Bluemix using the Node JS Web Starter application boilerplate provided:
My approach was to create a simple HTTP-based service that I could invoke with the destination phone number, and the message itself as parameters. To make the Twilio service available to my Node application, it was simply case of adding the service to my application in Bluemix. Twilio is listed as one of the Mobile services:
Once you have added the Twilio service, you configure it in Bluemix by providing the Account SID and Auth Token values that you find on the account details page once you have registered and logged in to Twilio.
The Node JS Web Starter boilerplate creates a simple template for a web server that serves up pages using the Express framework on top of Node. Express is handy, in that it provides a useful framework for handling HTTP requests, so I decided to stick with it for my HTTP service. The first change I needed to make to the boilerplate was to add a reference to Twilio in the package.json file so that the modules would be available to my code.
"name": "NodejsStarterApp",
"version": "0.0.1",
"description": "A sample nodejs app for BlueMix",
"dependencies": {
"mongodb": "1.4.6",
"express": "3.4.7",
"twilio": "^1.6.0",
"jade": "1.1.4"
"engines": {
"node": "0.10.26"
"repository": {}
When you push your updated code to Bluemix, Bluemix automatically does the npm install to go and fetch the modules based on the package.json.
Within the app, you then need to set up the Twilio package ready for sending messages. First, we need to require the Twilio package so we can access the service from our code, and then retrieve the Account SID and Auth Token values configured in Bluemix from the VCAP_SERVICES environment variable that Bluemix provides to the Node runtime.
var twilio = require('twilio'); // Twilio API ... var services = JSON.parse(process.env.VCAP_SERVICES || "{}"); ... var twilioSid, twilioToken; services['user-provided'].forEach(function(service) { if (service.name == 'Twilio-ph') { twilioSid = service.credentials.accountSID; twilioToken = service.credentials.authToken; } });
Note that Twilio-ph is the name I gave to the Twilio service when I added it to my application in Bluemix, yours may vary so remember to change it if different.
The environment is now set up, so now we need to create our HTTP handler using Express to form the basis of our service. I've added Basic Authentication to my handler to prevent spam to my Twilio account, this is nice and easy to do using Express.
// Configured environment variables to protect Twilio requests var USER = process.env.USER; console.log("USER = "+USER); var PASSWORD = process.env.PASSWORD; console.log("PASSWORD = "+PASSWORD); // Basic authentication to restrict access to my services. var auth = express.basicAuth(USER, PASSWORD);
I've used environment variables that I've set in the Bluemix environment, clearly in a production environment one would use a proper directory. You can set your own environment variables within your application by going to the Runtime view of your application and selecting the USER-DEFINED button on the main panel.
The HTTP handler simply looks for the URI pattern /twilio as a GET request and reads the destination telephone number and the message content as query parameters. The auth object passed in applies the Basic Authentication rule defined previously.
app.get('/twilio', auth, function(req, res) {
var toNum = req.param("number");
var twilioMessage = req.param("message");
var fromNum = 'your Twilio number';
Your Twilio number can be found on the Twilio account details page.
Twilio make it really easy to send a message using their twilio.RestClient API wrapper class. You simply instantiate an instance of the twilio.RestClient class, and invoke the sendMessage method with a JSON object containing parameters describing who the message is to, the number it is sent from and the message to be included in the SMS. You provide a callback function that is invoked when the request is completed.
var client = new twilio.RestClient(twilioSid, twilioToken); client.sendMessage( { to: toNum, from: fromNum, body: twilioMessage }, function(err, message) { if (err) { console.error("Problem: "+err+": "+message); res.send("Error! "+err+": "+message); return; } else { res.send("Done!"); console.log("Twilio message sent from "+fromNum+ " to "+toNum+": "+twilioMessage); } } ); });
Once deployed, the service can be invoked with a URL in the form described below:
If invoked programmatically the authentication credentials will be required in the HTTP header. If tried from a browser, the browser will prompt for a username and password combination. Ultimately you'll receive an SMS on your phone:
And there it is. I can now trigger SMS messages either from my NodeRED flows, browser or any other apps I might write.

Beauly, a beautiful place from the French beau lieu where monks of the Valliscaulian order came to build their priory around eight hundred years ago.
Close to a series of bends in the river the monks would have found little more than perhaps a chapel and isolated farmsteads. This was not just a pretty spot but somewhere with good agricultural land and excellent fishing that would be able to support a community of up to twenty monks, as well as the lay bretheren who undertook their agricultural work and other duties.
Today, the ruined church is all that survives of the complex of buildings that once stood within the priory precinct. On the south side of the church, a range of two story buildings enclosed an open cloister; their stubs can be seen jutting out from the wall. Beyond were orchards, gardens and probably agricultural buildings, stores and accommodation used by the lay brothers.
Beauly is one of only three Valliscaulian foundations known in Britain, all of which are in the Scottish Highlands.
The priory was founded by the Bisset family who lived nearby, in around 1230. The order was named after Val des Choux (the 'valley of the cabbages') near Dijon in France and was bound by very strict rules. Only the prior was allowed access to the outside world and the remoteness of this and the other foundations at Pluscarden (Moray) and Ardchatten (Argyll) must have appealed to them.
The reformation in 1560 bought about an end to the religious life of the priory.
Beauly was unable to maintain itself as an independent house for long and its considerable holdings shortly became private property. While the church remained in use as a buriel ground, the other buildings were substantially robbed, not least to build Cromwell's fort in Inverness in 1563. The building has been in the care of the State since 1909.
Work on the church (The Priory Church of St Mary and St John the Baptist) began after the priory's foundation in around 1230, once the monks had built their accommodation. it was originally concieved as an elongated rectangle with a chapel or sacristy on the north side. As far as is known the church remained much as it was until the fifteenth century when records of repairs and additions begin to appear. the Frasers of Lovat, local benefactors, built the chapel of the Holy Cross around 1416 and continued to make repairs throughout the century.
As with many monastic foundations, Beauly suffered towards the end of the Middle Ages, including being plundered in 1506. A decision was made to abandon the Valliscaulian way of life in favour of the Cistercian order and with this came a brief period of spiritual renaissance. Robert Reid, the commendator (lay administrator) from 1531, was particularly active, building a spacious prior's house and rebuilding the church's west end after a lightning strike in 1541; his coat of arms as Bishop of Orkney can be seen over the west door.
Within the church are many tombs and gravestones, including those from families still connected with Beauly today. The splendid tombs of Prior Mackenzie (d.1479) and Sir Kenneth Mackenzie (d.1492), his half brother, can be seen opposite each other in the monks' choir. The North Chapel, the buriel place of the family, was restored in 1900 by the architect Thomas Ross. It is not known where the monks of the priory were buried but in and around the church are the gravestones of the many townsfolk who were buried here in modern times.
In the summer of 1564 Mary Queen of Scots travelled through the Highlands to Easter Ross. She stopped at Beauly Priory before visiting Dingwall, capital of the Earldom of Ross. it is known that Mary wa touched by the beauty of the priory which was enhanced by a fine orchard. She is reputed to have said: "Oui, c'est un beau lieu".
The Queen used such tours to gain knowledge of her kingdom, to spare expenses on the royal household, to see her subjects and most importantly let them see her. She frequently stayed in monasteries during her progress, because they had the necessary accommodation and supplies for royal guests. Her host, Walter Reid, was the Protestant commendator of kinloss Abbey and Beauly Priory. during the civil wars which followed the flight of Mary into England in 1568, Reid initially favoured the Queen's Party, but he later joined the King's Party, the supporters of the infant James VI.

3. Your steak eating sister sounds hard core, I like her.
4. I have never heard of a head-dipping fountain... but there is a fountain outside my house, maybe I should try it? How do I know if it's a head-dipping fountain and not just a regular fountain?
Love your photos as always Lex. Looks like such a perfect getaway. xxReplies
p.s. you don't LOT hot in the photo... you LOOK hot... oh gosh... it's too early. xxDelete
RE the head dipping thing, just ask one of the locals, they will know, it could be made up for all I know (all the locals probably say it to get stupid tourists to dip their head in freezing cold water then they get ill, who knows!)Delete
Thanks for your lovely comments, espesh that I lot hot ;)

Setting proper dental health habits is important for small children. Starting proper dental care begins even before a child's first tooth appears.
A child's first teeth are important for a child to learn how to eat and speak properly. Healthy baby teeth and gums also ensures a healthy area for the child's permanent teeth.
Teaching your child proper oral care at a young age is an investment in his or her health. Start by setting an example. Take good care of your own teeth and your child will learn that oral health should be valued. Make taking care of teeth fun, like brushing along to a song or letting them choose their own toothbrush, to encourage proper oral care. Children should begin to see the dentist within six months of their first tooth or by one year of age.
Preventative maintenance is less expensive and better for your child than having to fix problems later. Your dentist can answer any range of questions from helping your child stop thumbsucking to proper maintenance of their age group's teeth. If you have any questions or concerns regarding proper dental treatment for your child, talk to your dentist.

- Once a shining symbol of Highborne society, Suramar never recovered from the trauma of the War of the Ancients. To survive the devastation of the Sundering, the city's inhabitants sealed themselves away from the rest of the world. Isolated for millennia, they had no allies to call upon when the Legion invaded. Now their ancient city, and all of its power, is at the mercy of demons.[1]
Suramar is a max-level zone located in the central Broken Isles.[2] Once a great night elven settlement — though not as glorious as the capital of Zin-Azshari — it was famously the hometown of several important night elves: Illidan Stormrage, his brother Malfurion, their friend Tyrande Whisperwind, and the siblings Jarod and Maiev Shadowsong. Today it is the home of the Nightborne. Suramar is built on ley lines,[3] and arcane coils in the tunnel system running beneath Suramar and the surrounding areas tap into those ley lines' power.[4] Since the creation of the Nightwell, the ley lines have become redundant and the arcane coils abandoned.[5]

Suramar was the location of the Temple of Elune, the central place of worship for the night elves. The high priestess of Elune lived in the temple. The Boughs of Azshara, Izal-Shurah and Arauk-Nashal were also located here.[6]
Just before the War of the Ancients, Broxigar was held captive in Suramar City until he was freed by Malfurion Stormrage. During the war, the Legion's efforts in the city were led by the pit lord Ronokon.[7] The city was attacked and ravaged by the Burning Legion. Suramar was subsequently used by the nathrezim in an experiment to create an army of the undead, an experiment which laid the groundwork for the Scourge ten thousand years later.[8] At some point during the war, the demon lord Sciallax came to Suramar and offered the night elves at the time a powerful artifact in return for their servitude to the Legion.[9]
The Burning Legion attempted to open a second portal besides the one at the Well of Eternity in the Temple of Elune in order to attack the night elves on two fronts. The resident Highborne used the Pillars of Creation to close the portal and put several seals on the temple.[10] The Wild God Ashamane battled Ronokon in Val'sharah just outside Suramar and sacrificed her life to kill him. In doing so, she was able to buy the elves the time they needed to craft a shield around their city.[7]
Most of Suramar was blasted to the bottom of the Great Sea during the Sundering. However, some of it remained above shore in the Broken Isles due to the efforts of the resident Highborne, who crafted a magical shield that kept a section of their city together. This shield would stay up for 10,000 years, as the Highborne believed the world outside of Suramar City had been destroyed. Under their shield they would evolve into the Nightborne, reliant on their source of power, the Nightwell.[11] While the city was shielded, it was "probably next to impossible for normal Nightborne to leave."[12] Much later, dwarves recovered a Highborne Astrolabe from the undersea ruins of Suramar.
The sunken Temple of Elune in Suramar City was later used by the Guardian Aegwynn to hold the physical remains, Jeweled Scepter, and Eye of Sargeras, which led to the building's more familiar designation, the Tomb of Sargeras.
During the Second War, the portion of Suramar containing the Tomb of Sargeras, now known as the Broken Shore, was raised up from the seafloor by Gul'dan.[13][14] A battle was fought there between Maiev Shadowsong's Watchers and Illidan's Naga. Several years later, the alternate Gul'dan was sent by the Burning Legion to act as their ambassador to the Nightborne and their Grand Magistrix, who has pledged herself and her people to the same demons she stood against in defiance of Azshara 10,000 years ago. Not all Nightborne agree with Elisande's decision, though they keep their disagreement a secret. With loyalists and demons marching together in the streets of Suramar, fear and distrust grips other elves' hearts and family turns against family.[15] The flame of the Shal'dorei flickers and heroes must arise to re-ignite it and stir the noble hearts of this once brave night elven group.
Getting there
Suramar is the most central region in the Broken Isles, making it naturally accessible from almost every other zone.
Roads lead directly into the Suramar from the neighboring regions of Azsuna, Val'sharah, and Stormheim from the west, northwest, and east respectively. A small mountain path even connects from the remote area of Highmountain far to the north near the Moon Guard Stronghold.
There are three separate neutral flight points located throughout the zone:
- Alyndra Stormgazer at Irongrove Retreat [25, 31]
- Ancient Cloudwing at Meredil [34, 49]
- Ancient Cloudwing at Crimson Thicket [62, 41]
Suramar is an ancient land, much like the other regions of the Broken Isles. It is strewn with lush and colorful flora, covering almost every cliff and crevice. Ancient Highborne towns cover much of the landscape, now inhabited by fouler creatures. The zone is incredibly diverse, featuring many distinguishable regions.
The southern portion of Suramar holds its most recognizable feature, Suramar City. Almost all of the roads in Suramar lead here, as it was once the center of Highborne civilization. Another notable feature to the south is to the west of Suramar City, Felsoul Hold; a rather recent addition to the zone.
The western portion of Suramar is a flat and grassy area, orange and red in color. It holds two large and now abandoned towns - Falanaar and Ambervale. The great Sundering had especially affected this place, collapsing much of Falanaar. A lot of the snowmelt from Highmountain flows through here and into the Sundered Shoals. Another feature is tucked away to the northwest, Moon Guard Stronghold - built against Highmountain in a strategic manner.
In the northern center of Suramar one finds perhaps the most treacherous and difficult to traverse place in the zone. Anora Hollow is a maze-like canyon with many precarious pathways carved throughout. On top of it is the Highborne gravesite, Tel'anor. Tel'anor's city-like fabrication on the cliffs of Anora Hollow is perhaps strategic, to prevent desecration of its heroes' tombs. That hasn't stopped the harpies, though, who have invaded over half of the ruins.
The last major area of Suramar is the Crimson Thicket, found in its easterly portion, near Stormheim. Like its name, the Crimson Thicket is a forest of deep red color, and massive trees. A small path from the forest leads to Azuregale Bay.

In the RPG
This section contains information from the Warcraft RPG which is considered non-canon.
Suramar was the ancient kaldorei city[16] that Tyrande Whisperwind and the brothers Stormrage once called home. The ruins are now a sad reminder of ancient kaldorei folly. In the center of the ruins, the stumps of two great aspen trees stand side by side. In ancient times, a great garden stood at Suramar's center, and at the center of this garden stood the fabled Boughs of Azshara. Now, these petrified stumps are all that remain.[17] In the time of Queen Azshara, the religious community of Suramar was a complicated structure intimately intertwined with the arcane community and involving nearly everyone in the city. The great arcane academies of Suramar once trained entire generations of mages.[18] A portion of Suramar, the temple district, was located near the Well of Eternity and apparently shared it with the city of Zin-Azshari.[citation needed] It was the location of the Eternal Palace where Queen Azshara lived. This portion of the city was battled over during the final stages of the war.[19]
Notes and trivia
- Ga'han used to be near Suramar.
- The demonyms used for something originating from Suramar are Suramari[20] or Suramarian.[21]
- The Highborne Astrolabe in the Ironforge museum is said to have come from the "undersea ruins" of Suramar.
- Two realms are named after Suramar: Suramar US and Suramar Europe. See Realm name lore.
This article or section includes speculation, observations or opinions possibly supported by lore or by Blizzard officials. It should not be taken as representing official lore.
The ruins of Suramar in The Frozen Throne used the "sunken ruins" tileset. It is never explained why the kaldorei city of Suramar has the statuary and motifs of a seaside civilization when the city was several thousand miles inland.
Moreover, the distance between Suramar and Zin-Azshari (in the War of the Ancients novels) was implied at being between a third to a half the distance from the Well of Eternity to Mount Hyjal, while the maps in the Frozen Throne show the Broken Isles to be close to the Maelstrom, and on the opposite side. According to the RPG at least a portion of Suramar was located close to the Well of Eternity at the time of the War of the Ancients. Azshara's Palace, the Eternal Palace was implied to be located between the two cities of Zin-Azshari and Suramar.[citation needed] Perhaps part of the problem could be explained by the tectonic upheaval caused by the Well's implosion. It is implied in Lands of Mystery that the Broken Isles are being pulled towards the Maelstrom.

There's a specific step every entrepreneur needs to take that isn't talked about nearly enough.
The news likes to cover the "overnight" success stories like Facebook buying Instagram for a billion dollars or Angry Birds selling millions of copies, but they don't share the key first step that the people who built these stories took.
So, what is this secret phase that almost every successful entrepreneur has gone through, but that no one cares to mention?
Keep reading and I'll tell you.
The First Step Towards Entrepreneurship
You might think that all entrepreneurs are generally risky people. You picture them:
- In Vegas putting all their chips on red and letting the roulette wheel spin.
- Speeding sports cars down the highway, dodging between traffic.
- Constantly jumping off of things with parachutes attached to themselves.
From what I've seen, that couldn't be further from the truth.
Recently at the College Investor, Robert asked five highly successful bloggers about how they made the leap to self employment. The trend in the answers below may surprise you.
- Pat Flynn had a $12,000 emergency fund when he lost his job as an architect, before he started Smart Passive Income or even earning money online.
- Leo Babauta saved up two months worth of expenses before he took the leap to work on Zen Habits full-time.
- Sam from Financial Samurai saved up 15 YEARS of expenses before making the leap to semi-retirement/self-employment.
- David Risley always keeps his emergency fund high with investments in both cash and gold.
- And our own Corbett Barr worked in the corporate world for close to a decade while amassing savings that he could have lived off of for a few years.
If you are sensing a trend, that's because there is one.
Most successful entrepreneurs got their financial shit together before they ever made the leap.
Why Is This?
The reason that entrepreneurs need to have their personal finances in order before they start taking risks is the freedom and flexibility it offers.
When you aren't spending every waking moment worrying about making ends meet or paying off your debt you free up energy to tackle your bigger problems:
How are you going to make this world better through the work that you do and how are you going to get paid handsomely doing so?
When your own money is not an issue you stop thinking about fixing your own problems and start solving other peoples' problems (which is the basis of most businesses).
Not Everyone Gets Angel Funding
It is hard enough to bootstrap a profitable business from the ground up when you have capital to work with, but when your own finances are in ruin, it can be close to impossible to turn a profit.
Yes, there are businesses that you could start on the cheap, but most are going to take a decent amount of cash to get off the ground and even more to actually start earning a living from them.
And eventually you'll want to make the leap to work on your business full-time. This will probably happen before the business can support you entirely. Without a safety net, this won't be possible, and you may never get enough momentum to push your new business over the hump to success.
I'm sure you could easily list ten things you'd like invest in that would make your website or business bigger/faster/stronger/smarter that you haven't bought yet because you can't afford to.
Well, there is just one piece of advice I have for you: do something about it.
What You Should Do About Your Money Woes
If you want to turn your personal finances around there are four simple steps to take.
1. Learn
You have to become educated. Money is one of the most complex and intimidating aspects of life. Not learning how to manage your money before you build a business is like not knowing how to drive a car and then going on the German autobahn. Prepare for flames.
When I started my first full-time job after college, I was deep in student loan debt and was suddenly making more money than ever before. I spent a bunch of my free time learning about saving, investing, and earning. Without that foundation I would have never gotten out of debt or been able to leave my unfulfilling corporate gig.
"Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young."
– Henry Ford
Action #1: Pick a new personal finance resource this week to start learning from.
2. Plan
Planning is the step that most people quit on. There are thousands of personal finance books, blogs, and podcasts but they often don't tell you where you should start.
Does debt come first? What about saving? How can I earn more? What in the world is an IRA?
This why I created Make It Rain, which I'm launching today. It has ten weekly plans, each with ten action steps for you to turn your finances around. You don't have to spend time deciding what you should do to get a handle on your money because it is all right there for you.
Action #2: List the specific problems you have with money and pick one to tackle first.
3. Act
If you don't take action, steps one and two were a complete waste of time.
"An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory."
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
Unless you start changing your spending and saving habits your plan will fail. Use either physical or mental hacks (such as freezing your credit card in ice or using a 30 day "wait to buy" list) to keep yourself from spending all of your discretionary income.
Action #3: Figure out your five worst spending habits (big or small) and quit doing them.
4. Become an Expert
Here at Think Traffic we're huge fans of becoming an expert at things and personal finance is no different. Once you get past the basics of how to manage your money and get a handle on the pyschology behind it, there are plenty of advanced tips and tricks that you'll pick up.
One of the "pro tips" I mention in Make It Rain is that the specific retirement funds that you invest in, such as an S&P or International index, through a 401(k) or a Roth IRA all have management fees associated with them. Investment firms will try to get you to pick their funds that are highly "managed" by actual teams of employees, but these will have much larger fees on them. Some as high as 3% or 4%.
This fee eats directly into any return on investment you get, but it is also charged even if the fund loses money! The alternative to this is to go with funds that have low fees like the low-cost funds at Vanguard (aim for less than 0.25%).
Be on the lookout for money hacks like this to maximize your savings over time.
Action #4: Look up all of the fees associated with the investment/retirement funds you have and switch to options with lower fees.
Do It For The Freedom
If you are completely overwhelmed by money or even if you're on the right track, I challenge you to take a hard look at your finances more often than you do now and make the decision to improve them.
Whether you use a course like Make It Rain or some other resource, give your financial life the attention it deserves.
It will not only help your personal life; it will give you more freedom to let your website and business grow too.
Do you agree that aspiring entrepreneurs should fix their own financial problems before they start a business? What personal money issues keep you from investing more (time or money) in your own business?
Tell us in the comments, we'd love to hear your answers.

From Fredericksburg, Virginia, USA:
My five old daughter was diagnosed four days ago, and after injecting the shot a little insulin runs out. What am I doing wrong?
I do not know what amount of insulin is coming back. It may not be insulin at all, but just some interstitial fluid ("tissue juice"). However, I would talk to your daughter's diabetes team and if possible, have them observe the injection process.
[Editor's comment: Your daughter may be tensing her muscle a lot which can squeeze some of the insulin out. Two other possibilities are that you are not injecting deeply enough and/or letting go of "pinch" after you insert the needle.
I agree with Lois that you should have your technique reviewed. Also, using an Inject-Ease® might make the whole process easier for both of you. Ask your daughter's diabetes nurse about it. SS]

Diablo's Dilemma Inspires Donor
by Mary Ellen Hunt
September 9, 2002
Ron Huxley has a challenge for the Contra Costa community. He's donating $10,000 in matching funds to Diablo Ballet, which he hopes will help spur people to pitch in to help save the company.
Like most people, Huxley believes in the importance of the arts. Like some, he has a child who is an aspiring dancer. And like many caught in difficult economic times, Huxley is in between jobs. But he believes in the impact that Diablo Ballet has on the community, and when he read of the company's dire financial situation, he knew he had to do something.
The Walnut Creek-based company is engaged in a fight for survival that has brought it almost halfway to a goal of raising $150,000 by Sunday. With less than a week left, though, the pressure is intense, and every bit of support will be critical.
Huxley first learned of the company's crisis from its associate artistic director, Nikolai Kabaniev, who taught Huxley's son, Anthony, for two years at the San Francisco Ballet School. "I asked him when they were doing their show in Reno and that was when he told me it was canceled. He intimated that they were going to have to tighten their belts for a couple of reasons. That there was a debt that they had to pay before they could proceed. Then I read in the paper that the deadline was Sept. 15. I didn't realize it was that drastic."
Kabaniev told him that Diablo Ballet had received a challenge grant from the US Bank for $15,000, but even he was shocked when Huxley suggested that he give the company $10,000 in the same way.
"I said, 'Are you sure?'" Kabaniev recalls. "I couldn't believe it, because we have wealthy people who donate $500, maybe $1,000, but Ron is not rich, and I know that he's unemployed right now. But he felt this connection with ballet through his son and realizes how important it is for a community to have a professional ballet company, how much it influences young people."
After studying with Kabaniev in San Francisco, Huxley's 14-year-old son Anthony continued dancing at the Contra Costa Ballet School and last March appeared in Diablo Ballet's production of Kabaniev's "La Boutique Fantasque." This summer, Anthony was offered a full scholarship to study at New York City Ballet's prestigious School of American Ballet, and he hopes to go on as a professional dancer.
Educating young people about dance has always been a large part of Diablo Ballet's outreach efforts, which has been a benefit to an estimated 12,000 children each year. The outreach programs range from large-scale productions such as "Theater Encounters," an interactive performance for about 800 children at a time, in which youths create a ballet for the dancers on the spot, to the smaller-scale "Adopt a Classroom," a monthly program where children learn about all aspects of ballet production and produce their own show.
"People are trying to help in many ways, in any way they can," says Lauren Jonas, Diablo Ballet's artistic director.
In just more than two weeks Diablo Ballet has been able to raise $63,000. A 14-year-old student from San Francisco Ballet sent $25, a retired schoolteacher in Martinez sent $500, a law firm in San Francisco pledged $1,000, even those who have never had contact with the ballet before have sent money. The US Bank matching grant was quickly met by donations from the public, and Huxley hopes that this new grant will inspire more people to action."I'd like this to be a challenge to the community, so that people will step up to the bat and show how much a company like Diablo Ballet means to the community. Why not have a local ballet company here that you can support and feel proud of?"

NSF Update - Planning for Summer 2017
The update below was sent to all MIT PIs who have current or pending NSF awards and proposals with OSP. However, eligible Assistant Professors who have never applied to the NSF before may also be interested in the CAREER program, and would not have received it. Please pass this reminder along to your faculty who will hold a tenure-track Assistant Professor position by October 1, 2017.
From: Danforth Nicholas
Sent: Monday, May 15, 2017 11:12 AM
Dear Colleagues,
Please note that the NSF is physically moving to Alexandria, VA this summer, which will cause temporary shutdowns of NSF electronic systems and delays in processing of routine requests. To avoid delay in funding, many NSF programs are requesting that progress reports be submitted early (by June 15th) to allow time for the NSF to release incremental funding prior to the shutdown. Check with your program officer to confirm if this applies to you.
- Proposals to the NSF CAREER program for Assistant Professors are due July 19-21 this year. NSF is holding a live Webinar with Q&A about the program on May 22 at 1pm. More resources are available on the CAREER Program page.
- NSF has published new FAQs about the publication upload requirements that went into effect in January 2016.
- The NSF recently launched a Quarterly Policy Newsletter.
As always, feel free to reach out with any questions or feedback.
Thanks so much
Dan Nicholas
