Negotiating the steep topography of a lake-side site, this holiday house consists of two volumes stacked on one another. The lower volume nestles into the landscape so that it is barely visible as one first approaches the house. The upper volume rests on the lower one and on a concrete pier to form both a bridge and a cantilever. This massing strategy allows for increased access and permeability of the site and emphasizes the charged relationship between the building and the ground.

Staunch cot refuser.(10 Posts)
We fell into co sleeping around the 3 month mark. DD (9 months) is now only happy to nap and sleep in our bed. I'm pretty much a hostage during the day and also from early evening until she decides to wake in the morning. She is a good sleeper with this arrangement, so it's hard to muster the enthusiasm to change and I hate seeing her upset when I know there's another way where she is blissfully happy. She will also nap in her buggy, car seat and sling but not as peacefully or for as long as in our bed. She's generally asleep between 8pm waking for feeds (but not crying and going straight back to sleep) at 12, 3, 5, sometimes 7, waking for the day between 8 and 9. She also bf's a lot in the day and feeds to sleep for naps. I'm starting the 'Pantley Pulloff' at night and she'll go to sleep without a nipple in her mouth after the 3rd or 4th pull off, with no fussing. But only in our bed. To be frank, I've had enough of her in our bed. I need some time away from her and some time with DH. She screams and cries and fusses terribly in her cot at bed / nap time and is visibly relieved when I take her to our bed. It's driving me nuts! I've managed to get her to nap once in her cot by feeding her through the bars in desperation . Tonight we've put her cot mattress on our floor next to the bed, I snuggled up and fed her with pillows from our bed, her teddy and a muslin we've had in with us to 'scent' for a couple of days and still no joy. Just a very excited baby keen to explore. Result: over stimulated and not asleep until 11. Now on the boob after a sleep grizzle. . Anyone have any tips to get their co-sleeper into their own bed?
Keen to follow
I could have written this. I really hope someone can help!
I'm glad I'm not the only one. We're wondering if we just scrap the cot altogether and get a bed for her bedroom that we put on the floor. And then at least I can fit in the bed with her for naps and get her used to her own bed and room. Expensive though and complete waste of a really lovely cot bed and mattress...
So, here's where we got to. Friday she managed to start her naps on her mattress but was having none of it in the evening. Took her into bed and she was asleep in 10 minutes. No fussing. Plus 3 x pp's. Yesterday and today we've been out and about so naps in the sling / car seat. I'm going to try and start her off on her mattress tonight but I'm not hopeful.
In other news, she took herself off the boob to go to sleep last night and was awake less in the night. So that feels like a small amount of progress at least.
Hi Princess both of mine were cot sleepers from the get go (one great sleeper, one rubbish) was I'm not in the best place to comment, perhaps, but I have an observation..
When you say you are a hostage for naps and bedtime do you mean that you are stuck in the house because that's where she needs to nap/sleep or that you are actually in bed with her? What I'm wondering is, if it's the later perhaps bed to cot is missing the point a little? She knows how to sleep with you more than in your bed right? Less the location than the company (therefore a bed with you in her room may just move the issue to another room?). My guess (sorry) its a pretty big deal for her to change this way of sleeping, and so may be hard going. Hope an experienced co-sleeper comes along with reports of spontaneous easy transitions. I believe this happens but perhaps a question of the timeframe? Good luck.
I used to feed dd to sleep in my bed until she was properly asleep, then carry her through to her cot. No problems. At about 20 months she learned to go to sleep in the cot on her own without feeding. No sleep training necessary, just a natural progression.
I'm hostage in that I can't leave her on the bed because she's fallen off twice. I used to be able to leave her until she could move. And doll mr p says I have to be more patient and that it will happen over time if we're persistent.
I've also tried to move her when she's asleep but she's having none of it. Maybe she's not in a deep enough sleep though. I might try this again at nap time today.
This is entirely my fault, I know, I should have persisted when she was tiny. It's just that things went so much more smoothly and life just easier to get her to sleep, and stay asleep, in our bed.
Ahhh I see. Don't regret the choices you made, there are plenty of sleep issues and no guarantees with anything you do. <weak smile>
I used to wait till about 8-10 mins after she seemed to have fallen asleep before moving her. I would sort of lift her arm up first, and if it was floppy I knew she was in a really deep sleep!
Don't panic, often these issues either resolve themselves as baby grows, or only take a few nights to solve. I thought it would be a nightmare getting my daughter to go to sleep without feeding, but it happened with no trouble whatsoever!
Wow, this is exactly my situation too, to the letter (so I'm no help, really am I?). I'm going to try putting her cot mattress on the floor and sleeping on another mattress next to it. Also thinking of transforming the cot into a bed sooner rather than later, as a bed is what she's used to... And it might be easier to transfer her to it asleep? I don't hold out much hope though. Good luck! I'm keeping fingers crossed you find something that works for you.

This is a really easy and scrummy meal with a Mexican twist. It's definitely a favourite in the Colley household.
Just a pre-warning – If you look carefully at all my pics you may notice there's a hair on them, just before you all start to worry about my health and safety standards, I can confirm it isn't on the food it's actually a minuscule one stuck in my phone camera lens. I can't get it out (argh!) I need a new phone 🙂 Glad we cleared that up, now food!
Nacho Chicken
- 3 Chicken Breast Fillets
- 2 tbsp of Olive Oil
- 1 Onion
- 2 Cloves of Garlic
- 2 Sliced Peppers (Any colour)
- 1 Can of Tomato Soup (You could also use a jar of salsa, or a tin of chopped tomatoes dependent on your personal preference)
- 1 Can of Red Kidney Beans
- 1 tbsp Oregano
- 1 tbsp Parsley
- 1 tbsp Cajun Seasoning
- Bag of Nachos (can be plain, cheese, cool, whatever you prefer)
- Handful of Grated mozzarella cheese
- Pinch of Salt
- Pinch of Pepper
Avocado Salad
- 1 Avocado
- Pack of Mixed Leaves (I usually use rocket and lambs lettuce)
- Handful of Cherry Tomatoes
- Cucumber
- Drizzle of Olive Oil
- Pinch of Salt
- Pinch of Pepper
Start by pre-heating the oven to 180c. Put the olive oil into a frying pan and sauté the onions and garlic until soft (being careful not to burn the garlic – I occasionally add a small amount of water (1 tsp) to prevent this from happening). Add the sliced peppers and cook for about 2 minutesAdd the chicken to the mix and cook for about 7 to 10 minutes to ensure the chicken is cooked through
After about 5 minutes of cooking the chicken, add the can of drained red kidney beansAdd the Cajun seasoning and oregano, and give the mix a good stir, then add the tomato soup (or Salsa, or chopped tomatoes, whichever you prefer) and simmer for a further 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste
Get a large oven-proof dish (you could always split it between two smaller ones if you have them) and put some of the chicken mix in the bottom, top it with nachos, repeat by adding more of the mix on top, followed by more nachos, repeat until all of the mix and nachos are gone (or if you've run out of space). On the final layer of nachos add the grated cheese evenly
Whack it in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the nachos are slightly browned. Remove it from the oven. Add the salad and a generous helping of the Nacho chicken. One delicious and simple meal complete. And remember if anyone tries to knick any off your plate, then you tell them "That's not yo chicken!"
Bon appetit, Gem x

Sometimes, the simplest, most commonplace event, can really demonstrate all that is positive and joyful. This morning as I lay in bed, ma belle amoureuse, having just returned from morning worship, came and lay beside me. As I clasped her hand in mine it became one of those "all shall be well" moments; no matter how groggily negative many preceding days had been, the simple act of touching had, in this instance, such therapeutic qualities that all those excruciating aches and pains one's flesh is heir to seemed of little consequence. This moment was joy, a pure sense of sharing and caring, a sense of really being alive.
The most remarkable aspect of the day, is my present, all too rare, sensation of feeling fully awake; remarkable in relation to preceding nights sleep of 12 to 14 hours, supplemented by a further few hours of intermittent daytime slumber and drowsiness. Food tastes better, the sound made by music is enhanced, and the warm glow of feeling most positively human makes this a day to rejoice in.
This is the day the Lord has made, I rejoice and am glad in it.

Cotes du Rhone AOP, France; 13.5% ABV
Imported by AW Direct; a Wine Trees Selection
"Roi de la Colline" = "King of the Hill"
$5 at the Berkeley, CA, store on 5 Sept
When I opened this wine, I thought it was very light-flavored and delicate, having subtle, dusty complexity, but not much fruit or intensity. I waited for it to open, but it seemed to go quickly from being un-aired to being over-aired, becoming too simple and acid.
Fortunately, I saved half the wine in a 375ml bottle with a stopper and little air. This second half was much more integrated and interesting, with recognizable flavors (or at least so I imagined) of Syrah and Grenache: red cherry, raspberry, a little black cherry / plum, a slight herbal component, and a decent amount of light, dusty earth. (There are likely other grapes in this blend.) As this half-bottle aired over a couple hours, the flavors darkened to where the black cherry and plum dominated, with the dustiness reduced. It was still a little less intense flavor-wise, but it had nice complexity and, with a gentle but definitely tannic finish, potential to improve with age. It's hardly the most amazing CdR, but it's quite good for the money, and would probably be better the second day or after a year or three of cool storage.
Another thought: I got this wine very soon after it had arrived. I suppose it's possible some of its reservedness could be from "bottle shock" of having recently traveled.

(1+x)/x = sqrt3
I am struggling to get the hang of this. i have multiplied both sides by x and ended up with 1+ x = xsqrt3
Any help please?
Hello 200001$\displaystyle 1+x = x\sqrt3$Factorise:
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow 1 = x\sqrt3 -x$
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow 1 = x(\sqrt3-1)$Divide:$\displaystyle \Rightarrow x = \frac{1}{\sqrt3 -1}$You can leave the answer like this, but it's neater if you 'rationalise the denominator':
$\displaystyle \Rightarrow x = \frac{1}{\sqrt3 -1}\color{red}\times \frac{\sqrt3+1}{\sqrt3+1}$Grandad
$\displaystyle = \frac{\sqrt3+1}{3-1}$
$\displaystyle =\frac{\sqrt3+1}{2}$
The only real difference with surds is that you should never use a decimal approximation unless explicitly told to and you're expected to Rationalise the Denominator which means ensuring no surds are left on the bottom.
To do this make use of the difference of two squares $\displaystyle a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)$
$\displaystyle \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} -1} \times \frac{\sqrt3 +1}{\sqrt3 +1} = \frac{\sqrt3 +1}{(\sqrt3 -1)(\sqrt3 + 1)} = \frac{\sqrt3 +1}{3-1} = \frac{\sqrt3 +1}{2}$

We could use some assistance on a report we are trying to build. The end goal here is to build a report that shows the CSMs their "Renewal Rate %". This is using a calculated field based on two fields ('Amount Closed' and 'Available Amount') from the Opportunity Object.So, what we have tried so far, is to create a custom MDA object and then a new rule to push data from the Opportunity object to this new custom object. What we are having difficulties with is getting an accurate total renewal rate % for each CSM. We are able to Sum the 'Amount Closed' and 'Available Amount' but not take those Sums and create a 'Renewal Rate %' for each CSM (at the CSM level not each individual Account). We tried creating a rule that pushed the Sum of 'Amount Closed' and 'Available Amount' to the new custom MDA object, where we created a calculated field for the 'Renewal Rate %' using the data that was pushed from the rule. However, this does not sum it into one value, it gives us a value per opportunity. Which wouldn't be an issue, since we can Sum in the Report Builder using the 'By' option set to the CSM (which does give us an accurate Sum of 'Amount Closed' and 'Available Amount'). The issue with this method is that it also Sums the 'Renewal Rate %' which isn't accurate, since it is just adding up the %'s from the calculated field in the MDA, with no weighting option for how much more a contract was renewed for. We also have tried to create a calculated field in the Rule we were building but that doesn't give us the correct value either due to the formula options that are available, doesn't include the option for 'A/B'.
Is there a way to calculate the Renewal Rate % total per CSM? Based on those two fields which we are able to push into the MDA.

I've done one of these videos before, the "get un-ready with me", but I thought I would do an updated one, since my skincare routine has changed quite a bit in the past little while.
As you can probably tell from the picture (I'm wearing foundation btw) I have been breaking out lately, and my skin has been a mess, so a lot of the products I use in this video are aimed towards curing my acne but also work for my dry skin.
This is honestly the first time I've struggled with acne in my life, so I don't know if this system (the Vichy Normaderm) really works or not. But I've heard great things about Vichy skincare, and so I thought I would give it a try.
Anything to get rid of the shit on my face. :'(
If you're curious on my night time skincare routine,

[D]efining all empirical knowledge as faith because it is always contingent is a great rhetorical success for those who want to demote naturalism, but like many such, it's a fickle victory. At some point, someone will notice that the relabeling doesn't invalidate Popper's central critique, and the new rubric would allow one to evaluate faith for how well justified it is in the same naturalistic context as before. Serves in Ronald de Sousa's "intellectual tennis without a net" can go both ways.
I can see why Nato sees my claim that empirical knowledge is ultimately based on faith is a rhetorical point, and to some extent it is. But I think it's also a substantive one. Consider each of the following propositions:
1. There is order/patterns in the world.
2. There are other people (i.e., other beings of the same kind as myself).
3. There is a God.
I regard all three of these as faith-propositions, or meta-beliefs. That in itself is not very illuminating, but it is not mere rhetoric; rather, it is a terminological innovation for what I think is a substantive similarity between the three statements.
For the moment, though, let's put the last one (Theism) to one side.
First, note that the first two claims are almost-always-tacit assumptions that underlie vast domains of reasoning. All empirical reasoning rests on an assumption that there is order/patterns in the world. All moral reasoning rests on an assumption that there are other people.
Second-- an extension of the first point-- anyone who denies the first two claims would be compelled to a skepticism that would constitute what we call madness. Imagine a skeptic about there is order/patterns in the world sitting in a cafe, drinking coffee, and reading a newspaper. Impossible! In merely lifting the coffee cup to his lips, he would be guilty of unpardonable superstition! Why, after all, should he believe that, when he lifts the cup, the coffee will also move? Merely because that has happened in the past? Again, there is no reason-- other than invalid inference from past patterns-- to think that, when he tips the cup, the coffee will spill into his mouth, rather than spilling out the other side of the cup, onto the ceiling. Reading the newspaper is even more absurdly superstitious: why should he believe that the words "Queen of England assassinated" have the same meaning as they have had in the past. Nor does he have any reason to think the sounds that emerge from the waitress's mouth-- "Shall I bring the check?"-- have any meaning, or that, just because other cafes expected him to pay his bill, this one does, too. He may as well simply walk out of the cafe without paying, except that walking involves an invalid assumption of object constancy (of the ground, that is) and of many other (as superstitious people call them) "physical laws"...
Similarly, a person who does not believe that there are other people would be a psychopath. He might, of course, refrain from killing others, merely because he foresaw consequences unpleasant to himself if he did, but if he could get away with it, he would have no more qualms about slicing up one of those pinko-grey (or brown, or tan-crimson) fleshy blobs with hair on top that move around and make noises with their lips and tongue, than he would about slicing up a watermelon. (Though he would probably be less likely to be a murderer-- a crime that benefits a person only in special cases-- than a rapist.)
Third, note that the statements are not only unprovable, but almost undefinable. Now, you might say that this is true of all statements; still, I think it is more radically so with these ones. A clever philosopher like, say, Hillary Putnam, could twist the phrase "the cat sat on the hat" into any number of ingenious paradoxes, and a tedious Cartesian skeptic might ask "how do you know?" until you ran out of answers, but the business of defining terms and providing evidence is nonetheless one that would not leave us feeling especially baffled. But how could you prove, or define, "there is order/patterns in the world?" Complete the following sentence: "A pattern is ..." Anything you say will be a travesty. Induction actually involves a sort of simplicity-ranking of patterns: thus we must be able to intuit that "the sun rises every day" is a "simpler" hypothesis than "the sun rises every day for 2 million days, then skips one, then two million more..." We prefer the simpler hypothesis, but how can you define which one is simpler? And anyway
Likewise, how can I define, or prove, that there are other beings like myself? Like myself in what way? How can I know that others ever understand me, rather than engaging in a complex game of mimesis, with all the words having no meaning? How can I know that other beings actually think and feel, or that their thoughts are in any way analogous to mine-- and what would it mean for their thoughts and feelings to be "like mine?" Some theorists of consciousness have arrived, I think, at the conclusion that we can never know whether other entities are conscious or not.
Fourth, note that while everyone believes, in a way, that there is order/patterns in the world, and that there are other people (beings like myself), we often fail to apply them. For example, I might set my alarm clock for 8am and be late for work every day, yet I never apply induction to realize that the trip takes longer than I thought. Or I may insult other people, yet get angry when I'm insulted, not realizing that by the principle which I apply when I get angry would-- if I believe that other people are like myself-- I would frequently condemn myself. The word stupid could be applied to the first case, the word inconsiderate to the second, and notwithstanding the universality, in some sense, of the beliefs that there are patterns in the world and there are other people like ourselves, people very often behave in stupid or inconsiderate ways.
Fifth, note that to hold and apply the meta-beliefs is regarded as virtuous: we praise people who are smart, or considerate; we blame people when they are stupid or inconsiderate; and we recoil in horror from madmen and psychopaths. One does not, in general, regard mere beliefs as virtuous or not. If I think that New York City is the capital of New York, and you think it's Albany, one of us (me in this case) is mistaken, but neither of us is exactly culpable.
Now, do all these features of faith-propositions, or meta-beliefs, apply to the belief in God? Some clearly do; others, one may doubt. Certainly "there is a God" is a difficult statement to define or prove (trait 3 of meta-beliefs). Indeed, Theists would be the first to affirm that God is inscrutable, that we cannot know His full nature and our language about Him is often negative, e.g. He is Infinite, without end. (4) seems to hold as well: religious people who affirm God often behave in ways that suggest they do not believe in Him. (5) holds, at least among religious people: faith in God is regarded as virtuous, lack of faith is blamed, and atheism is regarded with horror.
While (1) and (2) are less obviously applicable, it may help to clarify that the following three sets of people:
those who claim to believe in God
those who think that they believe in God; and
those who really believe in God
Are different and may overlap in complex ways. There are certainly some-- and there may have been more in the past-- who did not believe in God, yet had to affirm it anyway for appearance's sake. Are there also some who do believe in some Higher Power, yet, repelled by the sterile theological formulations and the behavioral hypocrisy of professing Theists, and unsure how to express a belief which they cannot define, nonetheless classify themselves as agnostics or atheists?
Would a person go mad without having some belief in a Higher Power? This is more than I can say. And I also hesitate to write about the mysterious Heavenly worlds that are opened up to the mind-soul when one is in the act of worshipping God. Still, I hope that I've thrown a little light on what I mean by faith.

passwords harder to predict. Such a policy may require, for example, that passwords exceed a minimum length, that they contain uppercase letters and symbols, and that they do not contain dictionary words. Unfortunately, it is difficult to define precisely the relationship between the components of a password-composition policy and thepredictability of the resulting passwords, in large part because of a lack of empirical data on passwords and the policies under which they were created. Even the best current guidelines for designing password-composition policies, for instance, are based on theoretical estimates [4] or small-scale laboratory studies (e.g., [12, 20]). What makes designing an appropriate password-compositionpolicy even trickier is that such policies affect not only the passwords users create, but also users' behavior. For example, certain password-composition policies that lead to more-difficult-to-predict passwords may also lead users to write down their passwords more readily, or to become more averse to changing passwords because of the additional effort of memorizing the new ones. Such behavior mayalso affect an adversary's ability to predict passwords and should therefore be taken into account when selecting a policy. With this paper, we take a significant step toward improving our understanding of how password-composition policies influence the predictability of passwords, as well as how they affect user behavior and sentiment. We describe the results of a two-part user study with more than5,000 participants. In the first part we required each participant to create a password under one of four different password-composition policies. In the second part we asked participants to recall their passwords at least two days later. We also surveyed users to capture their sentiment toward a password-composition policy, as well as to to learn about their password-related behavior (e.g., whetherand how they recorded the password). Using the collected data, we characterize the predictability of passwords created under various password-composition policies by computing their entropy. Our results are the first entropy estimates derived from a large-scale empirical study that allow for comparison of entropy across different password-composition policies. Combining these results
Text-basedpasswords are the most common mechanism for authenticating humans to computer systems. To prevent users from picking passwords that are too easy for an adversary to guess, system administrators adopt password-composition policies (e.g., requiring passwords to contain symbols and numbers). Unfortunately, little is known about the relationship between password-composition policies and the strengthof the resulting passwords, or about the behavior of users (e.g., writing down passwords) in response to different policies. We present a large-scale study that investigates password strength, user behavior, and user sentiment across four password-composition policies. We characterize the predictability of passwords by calculating their entropy, and find that a number of commonly held beliefs aboutpassword composition and strength are inaccurate. We correlate our results with user behavior and sentiment to produce several recommendations for password-composition policies that result in strong passwords without unduly burdening users.

The main herd across the river are rarely inside the barn for any reason. This includes feeding. For the wet wintertime, we use three metal feeders placed on a path of rock.
One of the fall tasks include re-rocking the area around the feeders so the mud is kept at a minimum. This year the feeders had to be pulled out of the area so the bulldozer could level the space. Several truckloads of rock were brought in and the bulldozer smoother the area flat.
During the cold winter, the grass is not growing and we use the feeders for hay twice a day for the herd.
The process of moving the feeders in and securing them tightly to the ground took several days. If not secured, the larger animals use the feeders as scratching posts and can move them completely off the path.
The cows graze and lounge around the pasture area and hillside between feedings, but when they hear the gator moving toward the feeders, they all come running for the sweet grass hay.
The feeders keep the grass field from getting too muddy during the wet weather. It also keeps the grass hay contained so that is not wasted by being tromped on by their big feet.
We use three feeders so the younger animals will not be pushed away from the feed by the more aggressive, larger animals.

It's difficult to translate recipes. Recently, Jonathan and I were trying to make a recipe that I used to cook a lot while living in DC. It's an Asian chicken dish that calls for the chicken to be dusted with cornstarch. When we went to the store to buy all the ingredients however, I realized I hadn't Googled the Spanish translation for cornstarch. But being the resourceful people we are, we went around the flour isle trying to gauge the texture of all the different flour-ish type products (you know how cornstarch has a very particular texture…) After some time, we decided on a product that we thought was the right one. Well, I should also admit by the time we had finished gauging the texture of all the products in the isle, we were hungry and impatient, so that also affected the events that followed. In our hungry haste, we rushed and decided on one product: bicarbonato de sodio. In hindsight, it would have been better to take time to really think about what the label could have meant.
We went home and made the chicken. It turned out terrible. No, worse than terrible – it was inedible. Why? Because the flour-ish type product that I actually bought was baking soda! We had doused our chicken in like 1/4 cup of baking soda. I am so scarred by this experience, I don't think I'll ever try to make this dish ever again. The only silver lining is that we now have baking soda in the house in case we need to clean the floor or anything.

"You are old enough to be more reasonable. You are old enough, dear Miss Miller, to be talked about."
Daisy looked at Mrs. Walker, smiling intensely. "Talked about? What do you mean?"
"Come into my carriage, and I will tell you."
Daisy turned her quickened glance again from one of the gentlemen beside her to the other. Mr. Giovanelli was bowing to and fro, rubbing down his gloves and laughing very agreeably; Winterbourne thought it a most unpleasant scene. "I don't think I want to know what you mean," said Daisy presently. "I don't think I should like it."
Winterbourne wished that Mrs. Walker would tuck in her carriage rug and drive away, but this lady did not enjoy being defied, as she afterward told him. "Should you prefer being thought a very reckless girl?" she demanded.
"Gracious!" exclaimed Daisy. She looked again at Mr. Giovanelli, then she turned to Winterbourne. There was a little pink flush in her cheek; she was tremendously pretty. "Does Mr. Winterbourne think," she asked slowly, smiling, throwing back her head, and glancing at him from head to foot, "that, to save my reputation, I ought to get into the carriage?"
Winterbourne colored; for an instant he hesitated greatly. It seemed so strange to hear her speak that way of her "reputation." But he himself, in fact, must speak in accordance with gallantry. The finest gallantry, here, was simply to tell her the truth; and the truth, for Winterbourne, as the few indications I have been able to give have made him known to the reader, was that Daisy Miller should take Mrs. Walker's advice. He looked at her exquisite prettiness, and then he said, very gently, "I think you should get into the carriage."
Daisy gave a violent laugh. "I never heard anything so stiff! If this is improper, Mrs. Walker," she pursued, "then I am all improper, and you must give me up. Goodbye; I hope you'll have a lovely ride!" and, with Mr. Giovanelli, who made a triumphantly obsequious salute, she turned away.
Mrs. Walker sat looking after her, and there were tears in Mrs. Walker's eyes. "Get in here, sir," she said to Winterbourne, indicating the place beside her. The young man answered that he felt bound to accompany Miss Miller, whereupon Mrs. Walker declared that if he refused her this favor she would never speak to him again. She was evidently in earnest. Winterbourne overtook Daisy and her companion, and, offering the young girl his hand, told her that Mrs. Walker had made an imperious claim upon his society. He expected that in answer she would say something rather free, something to commit herself still further to that "recklessness" from which Mrs. Walker had so charitably endeavored to dissuade her. But she only shook his hand, hardly looking at him, while Mr. Giovanelli bade him farewell with a too emphatic flourish of the hat.
Winterbourne was not in the best possible humor as he took his seat in Mrs. Walker's victoria. "That was not clever of you," he said candidly, while the vehicle mingled again with the throng of carriages.

So, I was going to make this post a very long rant about some fundamentalist anti-gay, anti-science website I found a week or two ago. Apparently however, my internet's recently been born again, because in protest of this little idea of mine (an idea I'd been delaying for a week) it's decided to commit digital suicide, therefore forcing me to type this out on the horror that is the keyboard on my mobile phone.
I don't really want to go into why the typing system on this phone is so god damn awful, partly because I've already been through it three times on here and partly because it's actually being pretty nice to me today. And despite of my lack of belief in jinxes or the capacity of inanimate objects to actually want to be nice, I think it deserves to catch a break, at least for today.
I mean in a space that I often use to rip certain corners of the internet a new one, once in a while I believe it's quite fitting to give something that's doing its job a pat on the back.
And of course, while my girlfriend is in Boston for the week there will be ample time to unload my hatred for this revolutionary gadget that's just inconvenient enough to be awkward, despite the convenience it was designed for. God I hope that made some sort of sense.
I don't know if you can tell by reading this but it's rather difficult to do a post on this phone without rambling. I have no idea how much I've already written, I can't see a word count and I have no idea if these paragraphs are going to be of appropriate length without the reference point which is the fact that online it looks pretty much how it does on the site while you're typing it.
There should probably be a comma or two in there somewhere, but just trying to read what I'm typing while my shaky hands force this device to wobble around is giving me a headache.

Have a look at who has been hanging out in the backyard – two adorable baby bears.
Looks like I will have to be careful when running on the trails near my home because there is most likely a momma bear nearby, with a watchful eye on her cubs, just waiting to pounce on anyone or anything that gets too close to them.
Hopefully, when I get home I will be fast enough to outrun the bears! Or better yet, the whole family will have moved on to bigger trees down the road.

Welcome to the El Presidente 2K Challenge Registration!
This registration session will allow you to complete contact information and submit payment. Please read through each page carefully to ensure that all information is provided accurately.
I announced the opening of the 1st Annual El Presidente 2K Challenge (EP2K) on Sunday at the Back to Rowing BBQ. There are already over 20 people signed up! If you missed the BBQ, here is the information:
For those who might not know, a "2K" or a "2K Test" is when one rows 2,000 meters on an indoor rower (erg). This is the "test" that all coaches use to evaluate a rower. The quicker you do it, the better. College teams use the "2K" as a guideline for the potential of a rower, so it's important. All rowers compare their score/time with others. When you are at the clubhouse or around rowers you will hear "What's your 2K?"
So, last spring on the bus ride to Regionals, a discussion developed about people's 2Ks (not sure if that's the plural of 2K). I somehow was thrusted into the discussion. A great debate erupted about my ability or inability to even row a 2K. Questions like, "Is there enough time in the day for him to 2K?", "Will the erg support his weight?" and "Should he have a doctor check him out first?" Then, the reality hit the Scullers..." Wait, what happens if he gets a fast time?" and "OMG, what if I'm slower than him!?!" And so, the "El Presidente 2K Challenge" was born.
With all things that are born, the "EP2K" started to grow. Why should El Presidente have all the fun? Why not allow others to have the opportunity to show the Scullers how to do a 2K? Hey, it's only 2,000 meters! How hard can that be! So, if you would like to join me, or if you are dumb as me, sign up for the "El Presidente" 2K Challenge TODAY!
1st 2K Sunday August 27th at 2:30 at the Clubhouse
2nd 2K Sunday December 3rd (date to be confirmed) at 2:30 at the Clubhouse
3rd 2K Southern Sprints Indoor Regatta (optional and additional assessment if participating)
4th FINAL 2K - May 2018 (exact date TBD)
Winner(s) will be announced at the End of Year Banquet in May. Winner will be based on 2K improvement, participation, and enthusiasm. Every participant will receive an awesome EP2K shirt! A ridiculously large trophy will also show the names of the winners.
TO SIGN UP: Fill out the Sign Up sheet, pay the $25 entry fee (includes shirt), and return to the office OR Sign Up Online at SarasotaScullers.org

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) November 18, 2014
ProFellow.com, the go-to-source for information on professional and academic fellowships, is pleased to announce the launch of its new website, featuring a searchable database of more than 640 professional and academic fellowship programs. Fellowships are short-term, funded, competitive opportunities for professional development or study.
The new site was launched at Stanford University during ProFellow's 6th University Seminar Tour.

We spent what seemed like several hours today cleaning the upstairs of our house, a large, rather open area dubbed Kidsworld, where our kids sleep. The boys have a bunk bed on one side of it and our daughter has her bed on the other side. While our oldest son is relatively neat, our younger two are far more tactile, and revel in play that involves scattering small pieces of everything as much as possible over every surface upstairs.
We cleaned forever and got basically a third of the area in good order. None of which matters, however, now that I know we have 100 or so different types of bugs living in our house. Sleep well and you're welcome.

Fianna Fáil Senator Mark Daly has extended his best wishes to the 3,989 students in Kerry beginning State exams this week.
This year 1,887 Kerry students will sit the Leaving Certificate, with 101 doing the Leaving Cert Applied and 2,001 sitting Junior Certificate exams. Nationally, there are 116,845 students sitting the State exams this year.
Senator Daly said: "This is a particularly big week for the almost 2,000 Leaving Cert students in Kerry. After years of hard work and preparation, their school careers are coming to an end and an exciting new chapter lies ahead. These exams are an opportunity for students to showcase their skills and demonstrate what they have learned throughout their time in school.
"In order to put their best foot forward, students need to look after themselves and keep stress at a minimum during the exam period. It is completely normal to be nervous, but students must remember that that the work is done and they have learned a lot more throughout the last couple of years than they may give themselves credit for.
"This can be a nerve-wracking time for parents too, and maintaining a calm and relaxed atmosphere at home will help keep the nerves at bay. Avoid lengthy post-mortems of exams past, don't dwell on mistakes and help the students move on as quickly as possible to the next subject.
"My thoughts are with all the Leaving and Junior Cert students in Kerry and their parents. The very best of luck!"

phhew! we made it friends, it's friday! yeah for all of us right? and on that happy note, i wanted to share some thoughts (and answers), and some academic perspective on just what makes good design? the fabulous design site mydeco sent over a video for me to ponder and i thought it an appropriate way to end a week full of design inspiration, have a look.
what interested me most about what mr. meier was saying was that there is truly an interrelationship between the exterior of a space as well and as importantly as the interior. and that the process of design is and should be democratic. that there are truly fundamental ways to achieving good building and good design. good meaning well done of course.
what are your weekend plans? do tell, i always love hearing what everyone is doing (or not doing!) with their weekend time. hmmm, for me, my weekend includes these ingredients: finishing my book (listed on the side bar of my blog, "the warmth of other suns"), a little bit of work, some writing (for pleasure), some sipping of wine (always so delish!), reading the new york times and getting in a walk on the beach with coffee in hand. love. enjoy! ;)

Years ago, he saw her swimming in Makha Bay in northern Washington State. Her bare shoulders. The graceful curve of her neck.
He'd been too nervous then, but this time would be different. He'd rehearsed the scenario a thousand times, hoping for another chance. Surely she'd talk to him. They had so much in common.
He stepped from the trees and waved, but she disappeared with a splash before he could speak.
Maybe people were right. Maybe his feet were too big. But, he didn't care what they said around Loch Ness. He'd never think of her as a monster.

|A cross-cultural study of the coping strategies of Turkish and English adults

|Availability of Full Text:
This project examined the similarities and differences of the coping process of English and Turkish adults. It focused on stress in close relationships and how individuals from these two cultures coped with it. A mixed method approach with a sequential mixed design consisting of an initial qualitative study followed by a quantitative study was applied. The qualitative study was exploratory and investigated the coping process of 10 English adults, 10 Turkish adults living in Turkey and 10 Turkish adults living in the UK through semi structured interviews. Turkish adults living in the UK were included in the study to investigate the effect of acculturation on the coping strategies of Turkish people. A grounded theory analysis was used which provided detailed information on the coping process of these groups. The results suggested that the Turkish participants used the coping strategies self expression, seeking social support, avoidance and problem solving more than the English participants. It was also found that as Turkish participants lived in UK for a while they used these coping strategies less frequently than the Turkish participants living in Turkey. Also as a result of the grounded theory analysis a model of coping patterns emerged which depicted the tendential order of successive coping strategies employed by the participants. In the quantitative study eight hypotheses about the primary appraisals and coping strategies of Turkish and English adults were formulated based on the findings of the grounded theory analysis and literature review. 300 Turkish (150 living in Turkey and 150 living in the UK) and 150 English adults completed the COPE and ALE scales. The hypotheses were tested through ANOVAs and hierarchical regression analysis. The findings of the quantitative study suggest that Turkish adults living in Turkey and the UK use active coping, planning, restraint coping, focus on and venting of emotions, and religion as coping strategies significantly more than English adults. There were also differences between the two Turkish groups. Turkish adults living in Turkey used significantly more planning, venting of emotions, seeking instrumental and emotional social support and religion than the Turkish adults living in the UK. Culture also affected the appraisal process. Turkish adults living in Turkey and UK appraised the stressful situation more as loss than the English adults. Overall the findings suggest that culture is a significant factor influencing the appraisal and coping process.

A while ago I posted:
I've had a CT scan and will have a hearing test on Monday, then I see him again after that. He thinks I'll need to have minor surgery. As long as it means I can fly without damaging my ears, then woohoo.
Well, hearing test is done (I have 100% hearing, thank goodness) and I saw my doctor again this morning. I 'certainly need surgery', but it would have to happen at least a month before flying again, which I have planned for the 26th of October to go to England for World Fantasy Convention. Being with my partner. Meeting Scott Lynch and Patrick Rothfuss and all the rest.
He says I can still fly without the surgery is no one's free to do it before then – it'll just be painful, but he can give me steroids which may help. I won't be doing any further damage, so it's up to me whether it's worth it. My main issue is the hearing loss two weeks after, and I'm going to a convention which means usually packed halls unable to hear the speaker, but eh. I'm usually okay close up and if I get to meet Scott and flail then it'll be worth it.
Currently there's three options for surgery:
- Private Hospital: I think my BUPA covers it, however there would still, of course, be a few expenses and not sure on the time frame as to when it could be done.
- Public Hospital: 12 months waiting possibly, but free.
- Katherine Hospital: 4 hours drive away in a small town. Free also. There's a 'very good surgeon' who goes there once a month to treat the Indigenous population, but they rarely show up for their appointment. I'd have a days notice if he's suddenly free. This could happen on Thursday 1st August if so.
Either way, it needs to happen a full month at least before flying and I'd need 10 days absolute rest directly after. It would include one or two nights overnight in the hospital.
CT scan says: IMPRESSION: There is mild to moderate chronic sinusitis. There appears to be acute left maxillary sinusitis.
As for now, all I have to do is wait to see if the Katherine surgeon will be free, and meanwhile, freak the hell out over the idea of surgery.
Picture of CT scan below. See the middle bit? Nose. See the curling white (bone) bits, and black (passages) bits? They should be straight. How they intend to fix that… who knows. Ouch.
ETA 28th July: Met with surgeon – he's not as reassuring as one would hope for. Have the codes BUPA need to check whether it's covered by private health insurance and may look to having it done privately instead. Yay stress. Yay stress. Yay.
