The Importance of Whole Food Supplements
Sometimes eating healthy is not enough. We sometimes need highly concentrated nutritional supplements to repair and nourish us on a cellular level. If you have lived years eating refined grains and processed foods your nutritional needs may be even more acute.
There is good news
Given proper nutrition, the human body has an amazing ability to heal itself. If properly fed and given the right nutrients, the human body is designed to repair itself. To do so, we need to eat a healthier diet, exercise, and take high-quality supplements made from whole foods. Whole food supplements supply our bodies with nutrients we may not be getting from our diet. Supplements can assist in providing the vitamins, minerals, trace minerals, and phytonutrients in a whole food form.
Only whole food supplements complete the nutritional gap
Whole food supplements are made by concentrating foods for use in supplements. When processed correctly, they supply a multitude of the plant's components. Whole food supplements work synergistically to provide you with optimal nutrition for good health.
A word of advice: Not all whole food supplements are the same
Many whole food supplements available in today's marketplace range in quality. Companies are riding the wave of supplement popularity rather than focusing on commitment and quality. Standard Process is a leader in synergistic whole food supplements.
Please call our office today to learn more about these life changing nutritional products.

Absorption and development continue to drive market activity. The Twin Cities real estate market is a mirror image of the area's thriving economy. Business expansion and rising personal incomes are fueling all sectors of the real estate industry.
"The Twin Cities is a healthy, vibrant market and, unlike some of the other markets around the country, it's not a boom or bust market, but very steady," says Arne Cook, regional director of First Industrial Realty Trust Inc. in Eden Prairie, Minn.
"The market remains healthy, yet our industry is beginning to show the appropriate level of caution," explains Rick Collins, president of the Welsh Cos. in Bloomington, Minn. "Concerns with the Asian crisis and the woes in our stock market have begun to cause companies here in Minnesota to exercise more caution in their expansion plans."
"The Twin Cities' market ranks among the tightest of the U.S. markets," says Clint Miller, a senior vice president and district manager for Grubb & Ellis, Minneapolis. "I think what underlies that is just a very strong local economy."
In the Twin Cities, where unemployment is a miniscule 2%, the robust labor market is one measure of the healthy economy. "We find ourselves talking about available labor supply as much as real estate," Miller adds.
Office The office market is enjoying robust activity with rents hitting record highs and overall vacancies dropping below 7%, while Class-A vacancies drop below 4%. The strong market conditions have produced an active construction cycle that in recent months has included the return of spec development. Almost 550,000 sq. ft. of new office space was added in the first half of 1998 in eight buildings in the southwest, west and southeast submarkets. An additional 734,500 sq. ft. is scheduled for completion during the second half of 1998, according to a market report released by Bloomington-based United Properties.
Major projects under way include United Properties' phased development of Centennial Lakes office park in Edina, Minn. The first four phases total 845,000 sq. ft. Opus Northwest LLC also has construction under way on its 500,000 sq. ft. Crescent Ridge office project in Minnetonka, Minn., while Carlson Real Estate Co. is preparing to break ground on 430,000 sq. ft. at 301 and 401 Carlson Parkway. The Minneapolis CBD is seeing the largest amount of development with 2.5 million sq. ft. under construction.
However, the bulk of that space is committed to large corporate tenants that include Target, Piper Jaffray and American Express Financial Advisors.
Despite the volume of new construction, the office market has not seen any warning signs of overdevelopment.
"If you look at the projects actually under construction vs. the inventory of space in the Twin Cities, new development accounts for only 3% to 4% of the market, which is pretty manageable," Miller says. (The Twin Cities' total multitenant office space is nearly 61 million sq. ft.)
"I don't think we can yet point to the market being overbuilt," agrees Mark Evenson, managing director for Cushman & Wakefield, Minneapolis. "Our track record shows that absorption has remained healthy and really accommodates any development that takes place."
The metro area has seen about 1 million sq. ft. of space absorbed each year for the past several years. Last year's absorption reached 1.4 million sq. ft. and, this year, absorption is expected to surpass that amount. In addition, today's suburban office projects are being built on a smaller scale. Current projects include Told Development's 180,000 sq. ft. phase two of Meridian Crossing in Richfield, Minn., and Liberty Property Trust's 168,000 sq. ft. Southwest Crossing project in Eden Prairie. Those projects are considerably smaller than suburban predecessors such as the three Normandale Towers in Bloomington, which range in size from 280,000 to 484,000 sq. ft. And, not all of the projects that have been proposed will get off the drawing board.
"If all the projects that have been announced should actually open, I believe we would have vacancy overhang that could create significant problems for owners," Collins says. "However, I don't believe all those projects will either come out of the ground or be opened."
This race to the finish line has pushed some prices slightly above replacement cost. A good example is Equity Office's acquisition this summer of Northland Plaza in Bloomington. The 297,000 sq. ft. Class-A building was sold for $47 million, or $158 per sq. ft. The Taylor-Simpson Group also participated in the bidding frenzy with its acquisition of the 725,500 sq. ft. Pentagon Office Park in Edina earlier in the year. The Class-C property sold for $59 per sq. ft.
"I think we will see some strategic selling going on. Investors are trying to bring more definition to their portfolios. You might even see a REIT or two sell something," Evenson adds.
Industrial The industrial market has seen healthy absorption and development again this year. More than 1.2 million sq. ft. of multitenant space has been constructed since December, and another 2.4 million sq. ft. is scheduled for completion by year's end. Absorption also was strong with more than 1.1 million sq. ft. absorbed in the first half of 1998, according to a United Properties report.
After a summer lull, industrial development is picking up heading into the fourth quarter. That slow down was prompted in part by large blocks of space coming on line in some submarkets. The southwest market, for example, had an excess of about 1 million sq. ft.
"The good news is that much of that space has been absorbed in the past 45 days," remarks Kent Carlson, a vice president with Ryan Cos. in Minneapolis. "Although development activity has been strong in recent years, that activity may start to shift in 1999."
Indeed, many developers seem to be more cautious this year. "We've already started to see more market-based development. I think people are being careful about the new projects they are bringing on line,"says Michele Foster, a senior director of real estate development for Opus Northwest. "But I don't think we're going to get into an overbuilt condition in the Twin Cities."
However, Foster adds that south of the river there has been some overbuilding, with more leasings and fewer new projects.
Developers also are beginning to shift their focus to different product types.
"You're seeing developers looking intelligently at submarkets and determining what the right product is that ought to be developed," Foster continues. "For example, the emphasis on bulk warehouse and office/warehouse construction is beginning to shift to office/showroom."
Bulk warehouse development accounted for 72%, or 2.6 million sq. ft, of new construction in 1997, and 58%, or 700,000 sq. ft., of new construction in the first half of 1998.
Meanwhile, the office/showroom sector is reporting the lowest vacancy rates at 7.7%.
The industrial market has become increasingly competitive in 1998 as new players such as Liberty and Duke Realty Investments Inc. (see page 44 for a profile of the company) have increased competition for acquisitions of land and buildings. Major 1998 sales have included Caliber Development Corp.'s 610,000 sq. ft. portfolio, mostly office and showroom space, which was purchased by Sentinel Real Estate Corp. for $63 per sq. ft.
AMB Property Corp. also purchased a 312,000 sq. ft. portfolio of office/warehouse and office/showroom properties from the Remada Co. for $47 per sq. ft.
"Minneapolis is an attractive market, and so it hits most of the REITs' radar screens," Carlson explains. "However, everybody, including developers, REITs and pension funds, are going to slow down a little bit."
Retail The retail market is the healthiest it has been in several years. Vacancy declined from 7.6% to 6.1% as of June 1998, and about 700,000 sq. ft. of space has been absorbed during the first half of 1998, according to a United Properties market study.
A cautious development market is likely to sustain those market conditions well into 1999. New retail projects also are slowing down as retailers are becoming more hesitant in their expansion plans due to a recent dip in sales, a volatile stock market and continued consolidation among retailers.
"Developers aren't building anything without the leasing," says Linda Zelm, a senior retail broker with United Properties and president of the Minnesota Shopping Center Association. For example, she adds, Opus is developing Arbor Lakes in Maple Grove, and the 600,000 sq. ft. project is already 100% leased.
Much of the big-box space that was vacated due to consolidations and bankruptcies has been absorbed, although recent vacancies include three Computer City stores and six stores left empty by Montgomery Ward & Co.
Retailers such as Wickes Furniture, Pep Boys, Golf Galaxy, Golfsmith and Gateway 2000 all are expanding in the Twin Cities. Rainbow and Cub Foods also continue to drive development with their new stores.
The competition from newly constructed centers is prompting many older properties to look at repositioning. West St. Paul's Signal Hills landed Wal-Mart as a new tenant, converting from an enclosed mall to a strip center format.
While retail in the St. Paul CBD continues to struggle, the Minneapolis market has stabilized. Minneapolis vacancies are at 10.9%, according to a United Properties market report, which goes on to say that the strong office market has helped increase retail demand - citing a new Target store downtown as one example.
"It's going to be wonderful to have a Target downtown," remarks Robin Keyworth, vice president of retail leasing and marketing for Brookfield Management Services LLC in Minneapolis. Brookfield is in the process of filling the 100,000 sq. ft. space in the Minneapolis City Center vacated in '97 by Montgomery Ward.
Major retail sales this year have included the 129,000 sq. ft. Ridgehaven Shopping Center in Minnetonka, which sold for $130 per sq. ft., and Glimcher Realty Trust's first acquisition in the Twin Cities market - the Northtown Mall in Blaine for $59 per sq. ft.
Multifamily The Twin Cities has long been a favorite market among multifamily investors because of low vacancies and strong rental rate growth. The overall vacancy rate for Twin Cities apartments is 1.8%, while average rental rates are up 4.2% to $628, according to data from Apartment Search Profiles.
Class-A acquisitions have been dominated by Equity Residential Properties and Avalon Bay Communities. Both REITs have been aggressively acquiring Twin Cities properties over the past two years, and combined, they have purchased more than 4,709 units. Such strong REIT activity has pushed up Class-A values, and sale prices now average $70,000 per unit. Still, those prices are expected to come down as REIT interest slows.
"REITs have slowed their buying largely because of current challenges on Wall Street," explains Bob Fransen, president of Fransen Real Estate Inc. in Edina.
Local buyers such as Bigos Investment and LaNel Financial Group have been actively acquiring Class-B and Class-C properties. That demand has increased values by nearly 10%. Class-B apartments have been selling for nearly $50,000 per unit, while Class-C properties are selling for about $34,000 per unit.
Activity in the B and C market also is expected to slow as many local investors take advantage of low interest rates to refinance their existing properties.
"I think we have two to three good years ahead of us," Fransen predicts. "Rents have been increasing at about 4.5% per year, and the new development has not been significant enough to impact market conditions. Because of the high costs of land and taxes, the majority of new development has been focused on upscale projects that warrant higher rents."
Hospitality Hotel construction is booming. The most dominant market continues to be the I-494 strip with its steady flow of hotel traffic generated by the Minneapolis/St. Paul International Airport and the Mall of America. That submarket has seen its hotel room supply increase 25% over the past two years with the addition of 2,500 new rooms.
Much of the development boom has been focused on the limited-service sector and extended-stay niche with properties such as Fairfield Inn, Courtyard by Marriott, Residence Inns and Homewood Suites. Yet the heavy construction in the limited-service sector has prompted developers to start looking at full-service opportunities.
The vibrant development market has pushed occupancies down slightly, while rents increased little during '98. And, according to a report from Marquette Advisors, year-end projections call for occupancies to drop to 67.5%, with ADRs rising to $84.

Sunday Morning | Pastor Steve Wainright | Luke 20:1-19
One day, as Jesus was teaching the people in the temple and preaching the gospel, the chief priests and the scribes with the elders came up and said to Him, "Tell us by what authority You do these things, or who it is that gave You this authority." -Luke 20:1-2
Society promotes always questioning authority. Jesus has ALL authority (Matthew 28:18). In Luke 20, Jesus gives a parable of those who reject authority.
God is the one who planted the vineyard. The vineyard is Israel. God put spiritual leaders in charge of the vineyard, but the leaders assumed possession. So God sent prophets to warn them multiple times, but they abused them. God was long-suffering, but they kept abusing the authority. So God sent His beloved Son. The leaders will willing to kill just to keep their authority–and this parable became prophecy fulfilled just a few days after.

I fell in love with health IT in the early 1990s when I began working for Baptist Health Kentucky doing data analysis of risk management incident report and patient satisfaction surveys. Now, after starting my own business in 2012 after completing my MBA and serving in leadership positions in health IT, I can say the fondest memories in my career have been those in which technology has changed how providers can deliver healthcare or patients can access healthcare.
Although CPOE struggled for years before the ARRA/HITECH Meaningful Use program, I have seen firsthand how a provider, interacting with the system directly, has improved the accuracy and efficiency of patient care. There have been countless stories where providers have told me the computer system saved a patient's life, because they had access to a result or the software helped avoid an adverse event in the patient care continuum.
My love and passion for health IT is very real for myself and those that I have had the pleasure of leading over the years. I have been involved with HIMSS for the past 15 years, serving on various committees and task forces. Throughout that time, I have been actively involved with the Kentucky Bluegrass HIMSS Chapter serving as chapter president twice, and a variety of board positions over the years.
I always tell everyone that it could be one of us, a family member, a neighbor or friend that needs healthcare in these facilities. I want them to know what I know for sure – the technology we implement and support each and every day goes to support the providers taking care of those patients.
While I hope it is not someone we know or love in the emergency department of a facility, I want them to know they are making a difference in patient care. Providers need to have timely information at their fingertips to make life or death decisions for that patient. Looking back at the last nearly 25 years in healthcare, it is amazing to see how far we have come. In my opinion, the most exciting era of health IT is yet to come.

Beaumont/Port Arthur
Deputies investigating a burglary in Jefferson County May 11 arrested four men on burglary and firearms charges, one of whom was apparently prepared for combat as he was wearing protective body armor when taken into custody, reports Jefferson County Sheriff's Office (JCSO) Capt. Crystal Holmes.
On January 15, deputies with the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office Sex Offender Unit received information regarding convicted sex offender Dana M. Pratt, 51, of Lumberton, TX, working at a local plant without notifying the proper authorities of his employment, as required by law for all registered sex offenders.
A Texas 10 Most Wanted Sex Offender is now in custody after being captured Thursday in Houston, DPS officials said in a release.
The reward for Dakota Marcus Stewart, 26, a Texas 10 Most Wanted Sex Offender and this month's featured fugitive, has been increased to $10,000 for information leading to his capture if the tip comes in during the month of December, the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) said in a release.
On Nov. 22 at about 12:00 a.m., the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff's Office deputies conducted a stop on a car near the intersection of 11th Street and 4th Avenue in Lake Charles for a traffic violation, the sheriff's office said in a release.
Recently, a Texas 10 Most Wanted Sex Offender, Demus Lee Westmoreland, 52, was arrested in Beaumont after failing to register as a sex offender in Galveston. Now, police are looking for another Top 10 sex offender, 64-year-old Troy James Allison, who has been on the lam since 2004 after failing to register in Lufkin and who once called Beaumont home.
The Texas Department of Criminal Justice has issued a warrant for the arrest of a sex offender who has lived in Beaumont and Lufkin, the department said in a release.
Jefferson County prosecutor Tom Kelley said he was pleased with a jury's decision to mete out swift justice in a case that afforded a decade behind bars for a Beaumont man who entered a former acquaintance's home and tried to sexually assault the woman in front of her small child.
Texas Department of Public Safety Press Release:
Jerry Wayne Adaway, 58, a Texas 10 Most Wanted Sex Offender, is now in custody after being captured on August 9 in Houston. Adaway was wanted for failure to register as a sex offender. The arrest was not the result of a tip, and no reward will be paid.
Jefferson County Criminal District Court Judge John B. Stevens Jr. sentenced 41-year-old Beaumont resident John Henry Whitfield to 15 years in prison after Whitfield pleaded guilty to three counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child on June 13, reported the Jefferson County District Attorney's Office.

The second book in the beloved Regency romance series, The Treasures of Surrey.
"Regency romantic suspense at its page-turning best." —RT Book Reviews, 4½ stars, TOP PICK!, for The Curiosity Keeper
Isabel Creston never dared to dream that love could be hers. Now, at the edge of a forest filled with dark secrets, she faces a fateful choice between love and duty.
For as long as she can remember, beautiful and free-spirited Isabel has strained against the rules and rigidity of the Fellsworth School in the rolling English countryside. No longer a student, Isabel set her sights on a steady role as a teacher at the school, a safe yet stifling establishment that would enable her to care for her younger sister Lizzie, who was left in her care after her father's death.
The unexpected arrival of a stranger with news of unknown relatives turns Isabel's small, predictable world upside down, sweeping her and her young charge into a labyrinth of intrigue and hidden motives.
At her new family's invitation, Isabel and Lizzie relocate to Emberwilde, a sprawling estate adjacent to a vast, mysterious wood rife with rumors and ominous folklore—along with whispers of something far more sinister. Perhaps even more startling, two handsome men begin pursuing Isabel, forcing her to learn the delicate dance between attraction, the intricate rules of courtship, and the hopes of her heart.
At Emberwilde Isabel will discover that the key to unlocking the mystery of her past may also open the door to her future and security. But first she must find it—in the depths of Emberwilde Forest.

Overall Rating
Ms. Ladd continues the Treasures of Surrey series in Dawn at Emberwilde, first started in her earlier novel, The Curiosity Keeper. The beautiful cover of this book will cause almost anyone to take an initial look at this exciting example of Regency-era Christian fiction.
Overall, I quite enjoyed reading Dawn at Emberwilde. Initially, I was hesitant to pick up the book, as I did not have any luck getting started with one or two of Ms. Ladd's earliest books in the Regency genre. However, I found this novel to be a quite pleasant read, as has been the case with several other Christian fiction books lately. The overall storyline of the novel is not incredibly complicated or unique, but it will appeal to readers as another example of ever-enjoyable, entertaining, and clean fiction from the HarperCollins publishing group. If anything, I would have liked to see further development of the Christian aspects of the storyline, even as Dawn at Emberwilde had at least some Christian elements, which is more than can be found in quite a few other novels released by HarperCollins in the last several years. After reading this book, I will very likely go searching for The Curiosity Keeper to see how Ms. Ladd develops a series and to prepare for next year's release, A Stranger at Fellsworth.
Special thanks to The Fiction Guild and Thomas Nelson for the advanced copy of Dawn at Emberwilde!

Overall Rating
In Dawn at Emberwilde, Sara Ladd takes her readers on an entertaining and though-provoking adventure. The mysterious Emberwilde Forest and the secretive Ellison family add a depth to the novel that some of Ladd's latest efforts have lacked. Particularly realistic is Isabel's personal struggle to balance the austere nature of her upbringing with the striking excesses of her new home. Any parent will also empathize with Isabel's fears for Lizzy's future and questions as to which type of childhood will prove most beneficial and healthy. The auxiliary characters were well-developed and entertaining, and the central love-story compelling and sweet. This new work definitely ranks among Ladd's best thus far.
I received this book for free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. (Posted on 4/12/2016)

Last updated: March 2016
Unison is a new programming platform that rethinks just about every aspect of the programming experience. This page shows a little bit of what's possible (or will be possible soon) with Unison. We'll start with the editor, which has to work differently given Unison's simplified approach to building distributed systems and dealing with persistence. (More on that later!)
Unison programs are edited in a semantic editor. Interactions in this editor are highly structured—we get rich guidance from the typechecker and are prevented from making various silly mistakes that are possible when plain-text editing. Let's have a look. Here we have an editor session, displaying just a single expression, a bit of text, which we'll edit:
In this video, we replaced the selection with a new piece of text. Notice the editor knows the type of what we've selected for editing (
Text in this example). And we don't have to remember to close the quote; the editor does that for us. It's the same with any other delimiter—the editor constrains us to producing programs that are syntactically valid.
Pretty simple. Let's see what happens if we open the selection and try to type some garbage:
We're still allowed to type whatever we want, but if what you type is invalid (because it is syntactically invalid, as in this case, or ill-typed, which we'll see later), it won't be selectable. Thus, Unison programs are syntactically valid (well-formed) and well-typed by construction. There's also no separate compilation phase (learn more) and code is always immediately available for execution, as soon as you've finished editing it. The programmer should never have to wait around for their code to compile.
By the way, this thing that pops up when opening an expression for editing is called the explorer. Let's look at the explorer a bit more closely now—it has a lot of useful information in it.
First, when popping open the explorer, notice again it tells us the type of the expression we've opened. No surprise, that expression (the 'target') has type 'Text'. It also gives us a list of valid replacements for the target. At the moment, there aren't any constraints on the type of any replacements, so anything goes. The list shown isn't necessarily complete, and we can refine the results just by typing more characters. In this video, we select the
+ function, applied to two arguments (the option
_ + _), and advance to editing the first argument. Notice that the editor now gives us a goal type of
Number (inferred from the type of
+), which is in bold at the top of the explorer.
Aside: In Unison, there are no 'import statements'. Everything in the Unison code store is available and searchable via the explorer; if there are too many results, just refine by providing more information. We can imagine having some notion of 'imports', but this would be a property of the editing session, it's not attached to the code in any way. Two people could open up the same piece of code and apply different imports to their editing session!
Let's look at what happens if we try to choose something ill-typed in the explorer:
We still learn the type of what we've entered (helpful for understanding where we've gone wrong), but since it doesn't match the goal type of
Number, the editor won't let us select it! This experience of not being allowed to select a search result in the explorer is the closest we get to a type error. This seems limiting but it's not really; the programmer can insert blanks anywhere in their program (deferred bits of code), build up fragments of code 'off to the side', and generally work in sketches, gradually bringing together bits of code. (FAQ: how do we make large-scale edits to a codebase without breaking things? See this post for details)
Aside: Type errors are a usability catastrophe, for both beginners and experts, and language implementators invest huge amounts of time and engineering effort figuring out how to report errors 'well' (for some definition of 'well'). But when you think about it, it's a bit odd that the default way of editing programs is totally unstructured raw text editing, which allows all kinds of edits that make no sense whatsoever. Why should we accept this assumption, which dates back to the punchcard era of programming when no other options existed?
Okay, let's build something a little more interesting which shows off some more features. Things happen fast, you may want to pause to see the info shown in the explorer at various points:
Several new things are shown here:
let block.
employees (a
Vector Text) is shown when we are defining
salaries. Likewise, the type of
x in the
x -> 10000 function we pass to
map is also shown (it's inferred to be
Text since the
map function is being applied to a
Vector Text).
employees. The editor could tell that
map _ was a valid completion (but not
map or
map _ _), just based on the types. And this idea can be taken much much further; we can incorporate richer type-directed search strategies into the explorer, and even let people write plugins to extend its capabilities. As Conor McBride is fond of saying, types aren't just (or even primarily) about preventing errors, they also help you write less code!.
All right, so this editor is pretty neat, and we can imagine adding lots of bells and whistles to it (documentation and usage examples that slide out from the current explorer selection, for instance). But the editor is just a tiny piece of the overall project, and it's actually more like a byproduct of a much bigger, and more important design goal—we want it to be completely trivial to persist arbitrary Unison values, in a database or some persistent store, and we want it to be completely trivial for Unison nodes anywhere on the planet to exchange data and computations.
Why is this so important? Well, let's look at the web as it exists today. All over the world, millions of software systems are sitting atop the web, and even within a single company (like say Google), there might be a fleet of different servers that communicate in some way to present some higher-level service (like a search engine, for instance). It is probably not an exaggeration to say that 90% of the code programmers write is just dealing with the particulars of communication—how to send values between nodes in these distributed systems, details of encoding and decoding, networking, dealing with persistence, etc. And then sandwiched in between all that is a tiny bit of 'interesting' computation or business logic.
A good way to see how much overhead there is to think about how much code it would take to implement something like a search engine if the search index and all the documents being indexed fit in memory and existed as some in-memory data structures (might be a couple hundred LOC for something simple). And now compare that to how much code you need to represent conceptually the same data structure and algorithm, but distributed on 10,000 machines. Suddenly we seem to need 100x or even 1000x the amount of code, and an army of programmers. Is that really the best we can do?
It's true that writing multi-machine / distributed systems has some additional essential complexity, but in Unison, we're trying to simplify things as much as possible and let programmers focus on the essence of what they're trying to do. We envision a world in which the set of Unison nodes connected to the internet form a global web, and any of the nodes in this web may trivially exchange absolutely any values in the Unison language, including functions. Doing this in a scalable way requires that we do something really radical.
Before we get to the 'how', let's look at a piece of the Unison API for building distributed systems:
at : Node -> a -> Remote a
That is, we can transport any value at all to another Unison node, obtaining a handle to the computation so we can extend it further if we like. A
Remote a is a description of a computation that may proceed on one or more nodes, and it comes equipped with a rich set of operations. Let's look at
map : (a -> b) -> Remote a -> Remote b
Let's see an example of this in action. We'll transport a value to another server, then continue the computation from there, using
In this video, we create a computation which runs on
server1. The first part of the computation produces the list
["Alice","Bob"], and we continue the computation on
server1 using the function
onserver1, declared in the
let block. There are no restrictions on the function we pass to
map or the values we pass to
at; the values might have a million transitive dependencies; any missing dependencies will be synchronized to
server1 when the computation is evaluated and cached for later.
Aside: For more details on this API, as well as discussion of how it can be made secure, check out this post which walks through the design in detail.
With this API we get to be very precise about where computations take place, so in that sense it's very explicit, but we're also totally freed from the usual boilerplate and plumbing code we'd have to write when moving values and computations around in our distributed system. No JSON parsing or encoding, no low-level networking code, etc, we simply declare that we want a value transported to some other node, and that's it! We can continue our computation there, hop to any other node, and so on! Building distributed systems does have more sources of essential complexity… but the idea is that Unison lets us focus on the essence of the problem, not the mundane details.
Aside: The exact same principles apply to dealing with persistent state. We should be able to trivially persist arbitrary values (including functions), rather than having to deal with boilerplate converting to and from SQL or to and from JSON or whatever ad-hoc format is consumed by some NoSQL store.
All right, now how is this achieved? The idea is simple, but it has far-reaching consequences. In Unison, values are identified not by name, but by a cryptographic hash of their definition. That is, suppose I write a function:
sum, for adding up a vector of numbers. In Unison, we identify that function by a hash of its implementation—the name
sum is 'just' human-readable metadata associated with that hash (which the editor of course uses for display purposes and lookup). This has a number of very positive benefits:
But it also raises new challenges and questions, which Unison has needed to address:
Modern software is built on layer after layer of foundational technologies and assumptions. In foundational work, the details matter. The Unison platform is tossing out some of these layers (many of which haven't been seriously questioned or revisited in ages) and growing something new, atop a very different set of foundational assumptions.

About Reisender
Reisender began when producer & songwriter Paul Conroy bought a neglected mandolin for 40 euros from a Flea Market in Stuttgart, Germany. The first few songs were written under bridges and on street corners of 20 different cities in Europe. From its origin as "Strassenmusik" (street music) Reisender embodies the spirit of the traveler, who embraces change and transience, especially in the face of adversity and hardship. In 2016, Reisender partnered with The Canvas Group to mix and master "New Year" and went on to perform Great American Music Hall, Bottom of the Hill, and Hotel Cafe in Hollywood in support of the album.
Reisender's music features an eclectic mix of 80s-reminiscent synths and drums, grooving mandolin riffs, cement bucket drum samples, and unadulterated indie pop hooks. The result is a sound comparable to groups such as Two Door Cinema Club, Tame Impala, Washed Out, and Miike Snow. Conroy's greatest personal influences are Paul Simon, Damon Albarn, Pixies, and Paul McCartney.
Reisender has also collaborated with local bay area artists such as Travis Hayes, Owl Paws, and Debbie Neigher by producing remixes of their works.

BEREA, Ohio (AP) The agent for quarterback Brian Hoyer says rookie Johnny Manziel being on Cleveland's roster will have no impact on contract negotiations with the Browns.
Hoyer, who led the Browns to a 31-10 win over Pittsburgh on Sunday, is 6-2 as Cleveland's starter and in the final year of a two-year contract. Hoyer beat out Manziel, the former Heisman Trophy winner from Texas A&M, to be the starter in training camp and his performance this season has the Browns (3-2) in an interesting predicament.
The team selected Manziel in the first round of this year's draft with the idea he would be its quarterback of the future. However, Hoyer's development could change the Browns' plans.
Agent Joe Linta said Hoyer is remaining patient and focused solely on winning.
''Although we have had no discussions with the Browns since the spring, Johnny Manziel's presence will have no impact on any discussions that we might have in the future with the team,'' Linta said in an email. ''Brian's not worried about his contract and the situation will take shape as the season progresses.''
Earlier, Hoyer said he's focused on this week's game against Jacksonville and made it clear his preference would be to stay with the Browns.
''I don't think I need to say any more than I'm from Cleveland and this is where I want to be,'' he said. ''But I also am a competitor, so I want to be somewhere where I'm playing.''
Browns coach Mike Pettine deferred any talk about Hoyer's future to general manager Ray Farmer.
''I don't want to get too wrapped up into it,'' Pettine said. ''There is the business side of it. We recognize it.''

I love it and it works
My periods have been irregular since my teenage years. I can go 2-3 months without a period. I ordered this and immediately started taking it. My period came on within a week. I have also been trying to get pregnant with my fiance for almost three years and both of us are really frustrated. Trying to let this kick in before he returns from overseas. Hopefully I will be preggo soon!!! Fingers crossed! Good product

Marques Anderson Q&A
Oct. 17, 2001
By Brian Johnson, UCLA Sports Information Assistant
Whether it is off the field or on the field, senior free safety Marques Anderson has had no problem establishing himself at UCLA. His dominance on the football field parallels his dominance in the classroom where he made the Director's Honor Roll with a 3.48 GPA in December 2000 and is on track to graduate in at the end of December 2001. On the football field Marques' switch to free safety in the off-season has spearheaded a mature and fierce Bruin defense.
Why did you choose to attend UCLA?
I chose to attend UCLA because it had a good family setting, my sister was already here (Marques' sister Andrea was a member of the UCLA women's track team) and the coaches made me feel at home. The school is real close to Long Beach where I am from and with my parents close by everything I needed was near UCLA.
What are your hobbies?
In the offseason I like to shoot hoops, relax with friends or go to a movie.What has been your favorite class at UCLA?
My favorite class was Spanish 3 which I took in the summer because when I first walked into class I didn't understand a word she was saying. By the end of the quarter I could understand the majority of what she was saying.
How have you been able to balance football with academics?
I have been able to balance the two because of the support groups here at UCLA. The high school I went to - Long Beach Poly - also prepared me because in my senior year I was taking four Advance Placement classes.
What has been your biggest achievement on and off the field at UCLA?
My biggest achievement on the field would be putting myself into a position to be a Thorpe candidate. It takes a lot of work to have someone consider you the best defensive back in the nation. Off the field it is being able to graduate at the end of December 2001.
What are your personal goals for the season?
To win the Thorpe award, be all-conference and an All-American and when people think of Marques Anderson I want them to think of an expert safety who played at UCLA.
Do you have any pre-game rituals?
I don't have any pre-game rituals but, since my freshman year in high school, I have always put a cross on each wristband and on each piece of tape that I put on my ankles. It is my own little ritual.
Describe what it's like to play at the Rose Bowl.
It is electric, the fans are great and when you walk out and you see 80,000 people cheering for you it feels good. The Rose Bowl is such a beautiful stadium and at the same time you have those fans supporting you so it feels good.
How have you improved since your first year at UCLA?
I think that I have become more of a student of the game. I've really learned much more about football than my freshman year when I was running around and playing with raw talent. Now I understand the game and how to play it.
How has your switch from strong safety to free safety changed your approach on defense?
It didn't really change my approach, but now I am the quarterback of the defense. I have to know all the formations, all the checks, all the line movements in order to run the defense. I have to make sure everybody is lined up in the right spot and we are in the right defense.
How has the defense improved since last year and how is it different for the past units you've played on?
I think the defense is playing a lot more aggressive this year. We are tackling much better, we're out there with a purpose, and we're motivated. I think that we have a lot of senior leadership with Robert Thomas, Kenyon Coleman and myself. We are strong in all three aspects of the defense: the defensive linemen, the linebackers and the secondary. This is where our success comes from, and now that we are healthy, we are finally going strong.

My daughters found some salamander larvae in a stream in Southern Maryland in March. They are out there but how many of us ever see them. To find these little guys, you will need to look more closely and perhaps have a bit of luck.
Some salamanders have an aquatic larval stage. The larvae can swim and they have gills in order to breathe in water.
The photo shows the aquatic larval stage of a salamander in Southern Maryland. Note the feathery gills extending out of the neck area. Eventually the larvae will metamorphose into an adult salamander.
Naturally, I wanted to find out what kind of salamander these guys would grow up to be.
I did some research and of all the salamanders found in Maryland, the only salamanders that can be found in the Southern part of Maryland and have an aquatic larval stage are: Dusky salamanders, Two- lined salamanders (see: http://www.funinthemaking.net/2009/11/05/finding-salamanders-for-fun-and-study-where-to-look-and-how-to-handle-for-your-safety-and-theirs/), Mud salamanders, and Red salamanders. I'm not sure it is possible to identify them at this young stage. If you have any knowledge on the subject, please pass it on.
Here is the website I referenced to discover the Salamanders in Maryland:

More than a thousand motorcycles, three helicopters and a contingent of police vehicles Wednesday night escorted a replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial from Cranberry Township to Butler Township.
The escort was organized by the Butler County American Legion Riders, a group of motorcycle-riding veterans and relatives of veterans from the area who frequently do escorts for members of the military returning home from over seas and for the remains of soldiers that are being returned for burial.
Wednesday's ride was open to any motorcycle rider, veteran or not, who wanted to participate. Organizers counted 1,030 motorcycles.
The Vietnam monument, located in the National Mall in Washington D.C., includes the names of more than 58,000 servicemen and women who gave their lives in service in the Vietnam War.
The American Veterans Traveling Tribute is a 360-foot long and nearly 8-foot high replica of the wall — about 80 percent of the size of the real thing. Included on the monument are the names of 43 Butler County residents who died in the war.
Jim Miller of Chicora, one of the organizers with the Legion Riders, said that they have been planning this escort for 16 months. Along with the bikes, they had three helicopters, state police, volunteer fire vehicles, municipal police and Butler County Sheriff vehicles. The wall was carried in a 24-foot trailer pulled behind a pickup truck.
"We want to show the Vietnam veteran that we are proud of them, they did serve their country with honor. The sacrifices they made, they are not forgotten and we are proud of them," Miller said.

What is Federal Work Study?
Federal Work Study (FWS) is a program jointly funded by the U.S. Department of Education and Regis and awarded to students who demonstrate financial need. If you have applied for financial aid and you are found to be eligible then you will see a Work Study allocation on your Financial Aid Award letter. It is then your responsibility to pursue a position in which you can earn this award. Students reapply for FWS with the FAFSA Financial Aid Application process; renewal of this award is based on demonstrated financial need and availability of funds. Availability of jobs is not guaranteed and depends on departmental needs.
If I am not awarded FWS, can I still work on campus?
Yes. Although hiring priority is given to FWS recipients, Regis funds a program known as the Institutional Employment Program. Students working through this program must wait until after October 1 to begin their job search. Once a position is secured, the Office of Financial Aid will award an allocation similar to the FWS award. The student is expected to plan their hours accordingly with this allocation.
Can I use FWS to work off campus?
Yes. If your employment is considered community service, Regis can contract with an off campus non profit employer who is willing to pay the non federal share of your wages. Please contact your financial aid counselor to determine if your employer qualfies. It is the student's responsibility to secure the off campus position and have it approved by financial aid.
How many hours can I work?
Students may not work more than 20 hours a week, nor can you work during your scheduled class time.
Employment opportunities are electronically posted. Please use your Regis credentials to log onto https://regiscollege-csm.symplicity.com. Hiring supervisors complete a job posting that includes job descriptions, duties, and particular skills and hours for a position. The student is responsible for determining which positions best suit his or her interest, skills, and personal schedule and apply for the job directly with the employer listed.
Students must have a completed contract, I-9 and W-4 form before working any hours.

Beijing's War on Shadow Banking
China's central bank cracks down on credit that is not under the government's control.
On June 20, China's central bank precipitated a major credit crisis by withholding funds from the nation's cash-starved banking system. The People's Bank of China's refusal to act as liquidity provider of last resort froze lending in the interbank market. Overnight rates, which had been as low as 2.1% in early May, exploded, closing at a record 13.4%.
As rumors swirled about the solvency of China's state-owned banks, some commentators began talking about a Chinese "Lehman moment." But the crisis passed and the overnight...

ICMSA leader calls for 'unprecedented action' to solve milk price crisis
Unprecedented action is going to have to be taken at EU level to bring the market back into balance and to give farmers viable options, according to ICMSA presiden John Comer,
He said this was needed because of financial pressures growing at farm level and with no prospects of improved milk prices in the short term.
Mr Comer said that the introduction of a Voluntary Supply Reduction Scheme in Ireland and across all EU Member States should now be implemented.
"It's very clear at this stage that farmers have been effectively abandoned to take the hit alone from the downturn in the dairy markets. All other links in the supply chain are insulating themselves and policymakers at both national and EU level are allowing and assisting them to do so," he said.

By Noah Barkin and Catherine Bremer
BERLIN/PARIS (Reuters) - Five years ago, Nicolas Sarkozy flew straight to Berlin after his inauguration and shocked his hosts with some blunt talk on planemaker Airbus, one of the most sensitive of Franco-German issues.
That first visit set the tone for the months that followed. German officials looked on in horror as the new French president reneged on budget pledges, announced plans for nuclear cooperation with Libya and claimed credit for influencing decisions by the European Central Bank.
On Tuesday, Francois Hollande will be sworn in as president after beating Sarkozy and make the same journey to Berlin. This time, German officials are confident of a calmer start to Europe's most important working relationship.
The impulsive Sarkozy and the reserved Merkel eventually overcame their rough beginning, earning the moniker "Merkozy" for cooperating to combat first the global financial crisis, and then the euro zone debt disaster.
But they were always too different to be close. That is why Merkel and her conservative entourage, despite openly supporting Sarkozy's re-election campaign, are looking forward to working with his Socialist successor.
"People forget that there was a lot that divided Merkel and Sarkozy," a German official close to the chancellor said, requesting anonymity. "We expect there to be more common ground than differences with Hollande."
An EU ambassador in Brussels put it more bluntly: "I don't think it's a secret that some leaders are not sorry to see Sarkozy go."
Hollande will get a grand welcome in Berlin with military honors and dinner on the eighth floor of the Chancellery, which offers scenic views over the Tiergarten park and Reichstag.
However, allies of both leaders have warned of a rock-hard line in talks that will focus on Hollande's demand for new growth-boosting measures in Europe.
The spokesman for Hollande's Socialists Benoit Hamon told French television on Sunday that Merkel could not be the "sole decider of Europe's fate based on German interests".
Volker Kauder, the leader of Merkel's Christian Democrats (CDU) in parliament, has warned Paris that German taxpayers will not pay for the generous promises that Hollande made on the way to his election victory just over a week ago.
But beneath the confrontational rhetoric, aides on both sides have been highlighting the similarities between Merkel and the new French leader, whose relationship could well prove decisive for the euro zone's future.
On Tuesday evening, the two leaders are expected to discuss the broad outlines of a new "growth pact" to complement Merkel's "fiscal compact" on budget discipline.
If such a pact comes together, Hollande will be able to hold this up as a triumph before of French parliamentary elections in June. But it may prove a hollow one, as Merkel looks unlikely to give much ground on the substance of new growth measures.
"He can easily pick these low hanging fruit and return to Paris to declare victory, but this will not deliver growth," said Jean-Pisani Ferry, who runs the Brussels-based Bruegel think tank.
The Germans have already signaled they are open to more flexible use of EU structural funds, a bigger role for the European Investment Bank and use of "project bonds" to boost infrastructure investment in struggling euro members such as Spain - as long as this doesn't mean building a third highway between Valencia and Zaragoza, as one Berlin official put it.
But they have made clear in public and private that any new debt-financed stimulus in Europe is off the table.
People close to Merkel also rule out any easing of budget deficit targets for struggling countries such as Greece and Spain, though some believe she will ultimately have to budge on this as both the European Commission and International Monetary Fund see the goals as unrealistic.
In Berlin, the view is that the government has already taken a huge step for Europe by signaling a tolerance of higher inflation.
Merkel is likely to press Hollande and his advisers for reassurances that France will introduce a "super law" binding his government to strict deficit-cutting targets. Berlin also wants to finalize French backing for the appointment of German Wolfgang Schaeuble as head of the Eurogroup forum of euro zone finance ministers.
"Hollande won't want to block things," said Christian Paul, a French Socialist lawmaker.
A deal seems possible, but calling it a "grand bargain" may be giving too much credit.
When Sarkozy took power nearly two years into Merkel's first term, they seemed a perfect match. Both were conservatives who favored closer ties with Washington, opposed Turkey's bid to join the EU and wanted reforms of the welfare state.
But the German leader may have more in common with Hollande in the areas that really count.
The two were born less than a month apart in the summer of 1954 and grew up in religious households with distant fathers and mothers they were close to.
Both have simple tastes. When she became chancellor in 2005, Merkel insisted on staying in the modest apartment opposite Berlin's Pergamon Museum where she still lives with her husband.
Hollande has complained about having to move into the Elysee Palace from his flat in Paris's 15th arrondissement, and said he wants to continue to take the train and do the family shopping as head of state.
Merkel's Social Democrat predecessor Gerhard Schroeder was known for his expensive Italian suits, and Sarkozy as "President bling bling" for his flashy lifestyle, but neither Hollande nor the German leader are fussed about fashion.
Both required a thorough makeover when they ran for office - Hollande going on a diet and trading in his round spectacles for designer frames, and Merkel getting a brand-new hair-do and wardrobe. Their down-to-earth simplicity is one reason voters backed them over more charismatic incumbents.
"The two of them have a lot in common," said an external adviser to Hollande, who requested anonymity. "They are both very human people: uncomplicated, easy going and unpretentious. They both have a keen sense of humor. People who know them feel they will gel better than Merkel did with Sarkozy."
It took scandals within both of their parties to turn Merkel and Hollande into viable candidates in the first place.
Were it not for the sex scandal that ended Socialist Dominique Strauss-Kahn's political career, Hollande would surely not have run against Sarkozy.
Had former Chancellor Helmut Kohl not dragged down his anointed successor Schaeuble in a party financing scandal, he and not Merkel might have become chancellor.
On the policy front, Merkel ran in 2005 as a hard-charging economic reformer in the image of British "Iron Lady" Margaret Thatcher, only to push her party to the left once in office.
The expectation in Berlin is that the same - in reverse - will be true for Hollande.
After running as a big-spending Socialist, German officials believe the new president will be forced to become a reformer himself in the image of Germany's Schroeder, whose overhaul of labor market rules is credited with making the German economy competitive - and Merkel's life as chancellor far easier.
Sarkozy did not do the same favor for Hollande, waiting until the final years of his term to get serious about reforms.
The Socialist takes over at a time when French debt has swelled to 90 percent of GDP, the trade deficit is at a record 70 billion euros and nearly one in four young French workers is unemployed. The public sector accounts for 56 percent of annual output, higher than in any other European country.
That leaves Hollande with very little wiggle room and no real alternative but to warm up to Merkel - as Sarkozy eventually did - no matter how isolated she has come to look in Europe over the past weeks as resistance to Germany's bitter fiscal medicine builds up.
Unlike Sarkozy, many see Hollande as committed to European integration. In 2005, months before Merkel became chancellor, he was pelted with eggs after campaigning hard, but to no avail, for a "yes" vote in a French referendum on Europe's constitution.
This is where the new French president and Merkel, who herself talks openly about "political union" in Europe, may end up finding common ground - and overcoming the growth-versus-austerity spat that has dominated the run-up to their first encounter.

BARTOW — If Florida had a state housing unit, it surely would be the mobile home. Nowhere in the United States are there more mobile homes than in Florida.
The 1980 census found Florida, with 421,338 mobile homes, leading California (385,759) and Texas (286,639). In 1985, Florida's estimated 500,000 mobile homes constitute about 10 percent of the state's housing -- double the figure for the nation as a whole.

10 Britney Songs That Are Better
Than Anything On Britney Jean
Than Anything On Britney Jean
by Matt Bond
Britney Spears put her new album Britney Jean up for streaming at the start of the week. Here's a quick review... meh. Here's an extended review... it's meh-tacular. Sure, there's a couple of club bangerz (with a 'z') here and there, but for the most part, nothing on it holds a candle to pretty much everything else she's done. I mean, I'd rather listen to 'I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman' and a happier alternative to listening to that song is jumping out of a plane without a parachute. I've done a great job of blaming will.I.am for everything that was wrong with the singles 'Work Bitch' and 'Perfume', so I'll just keep that rolling and say, "LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE!" Back away from the Spears, Mr. am. If that even is your real name. Apparently the album was designed as a concept about the loneliness of life as a pop star. That's exactly what I took from 'Work Bitch' and I'm sure you did too. Lines like, "here comes the smasher, here comes the master, here comes the big beat, big beat to blast ya," are of the psychological depth required to examine such an issue.
Britney Jean is a sea of mediocre EDM, but there was one track on it that made me remember the pop icon 'ole zombie Spears used to be. Guess which song it was? Here's a hint. It's not 'It Should Be Easy' which features none other than (you guessed it), will.I.am. They're making me want to scream an shout and let it all out. And I don't even know what that really means. Let what out? The dogs? I don't know. Anyway, there's that one song right that makes me think HMAS Spears has yet to sail away completely, so that's how we're ending the 10 and 1 for the year. The one is, of course, the only decent thing about Britney Jean. The ten. That's ten tracks that made us forgive things like that VMA performance and Crossroads. So get excited, dear readers for it's classic Britney... bitch.
The 10:
...Baby One More Time
Oops!... I Did It Again
What I don't get is, if she's an alien, how does she even know the old lady threw it into the ocean at the end? You know what I'm talking about.
I'm A Slave 4 U
Boys (The Co-Ed Remix)
Piece of Me
Till The World Ends
Album: Britney Jean... that new one you're probably not going to buy.
Do you know what's great about this Britney attempt at a torch song? That will.I.am has NOTHING to do with it. Katy Perry and Sia helped out with words and Diplo was brought in for production duties. That explains why it's slightly interesting, yes? Yes. There's minimal distortion on the vocals, an attempt at lyrical depth and I'm actually finding it easy to pay backhanded compliments. For the next album, love, ditch Mr Boom Boom Pow (them chickens jockin' my style) and shack up with Diplo for awhile. It would be infinitely more interesting than the total package that is Britney Jean. Now, let's go listen to 'Toxic' again. Those were the days, my friend. We thought that they would never end...

Ireland's Damien Varley provides some airport entertainment
Ireland's replacement hooker Damien Varley put on an impromptu performance at Rotorua Airport yesterday. Brian O'Driscoll posted the video on twitter, and said the following.
"We had a Maori lady play guitar and sing for us at Rotorua Airport as we boarded our flight to Dunedin. Damien Varley asked if she would lend him the guitar and immediately and impressively belted out a couple of Christy Moore numbers.
He was immediately fined for upstaging the lady! Denis Leamy is very disgruntled about being usurped having been our go-to man in the past for singing.
There's only so many times you can listen to 'Ride On'! Given Varley's star turn, there is an undertaking to purchase a guitar with some of the fines' money."

'Grey' Reviews: "Mills and Boon Meets Peepshow" 10 Biggest Criticisms Of E.L James New Book.
Whilst fans have been getting all fired up about the latest 'Fifty Shades of Grey' novel, critics have given the book ice cold reviews.
"With crafty economy of effort, Ms James has simply shadowed the whole plot of Book One, reproducing the clunky polystyrene dialogue word for word, and inserting italicised thoughts by Christian himself. James also reproduces all the tediously samey sexual encounters, from the couple's first tryst"
"A cut-price Mr Darcy with nipple clamps" Bryony Gordon, The Telegraph
"It's about as sexy as a misery memoir and as arousing as the diary of a sex offender. This is the best the 21st century can come up with in terms of romantic literary heroes – a cut-price Mr Darcy in nipple clamps."
>> Read the HOTTEST extracts from the new book 'Grey' <<
"Mills and Boon meets Peep Show" Nick Clarke, The Independent
"Drawn out, racy, frequently painful and unintentionally hilarious. Grey's inner-most thoughts are almost exactly the same as what he says out loud. The effect is increasingly comical – Mills & Boon meets Peep Show - while the rest of his internal monologue is spent stating the bleeding obvious."
"Creepy Beyond Relief" - Jenny Colgan, The Guardian.
"The first trilogy was a fantasy. This book is far more realistic – and creepy beyond belief."
"They lack ambition" - Economist
"Considering such commercial savvy, it is disappointing that the author and her publishers are so bereft of ambition."
"50 Shades Of Monotonous" - USA Today
"The book is nothing more than 50 shades of monotonous. Much to readers' disappointment, the book offers hardly any secret pieces of insight into Christian's mind." - USA Today
>> Excited for the Fifty Shades Darker sequel? Watch the Trailer <<
"E.L James is her own biggest fan"
"[It's] exactly the same. You can't improve on perfection, she thinks, perhaps. She's proved herself once and for all her own biggest fan ever." David Sexton, London Evening Standard
"You'd be crazy to date Mr.Grey" - The Washington Post
"It's difficult to understand why any woman in her right mind would take a chance on [Christian Grey]."
"Someone insisted on calling it a novel" - Newsweek
"Grey is a retelling of Fifty Shades of Grey, the 2011 collection of sentences, separated by punctuation marks and divided into paragraphs, that became a worldwide sensation and that some insisted on calling a novel, since it sort of looked like one and was typed on paper."

I started my career as a Web Programmer back in 2012, with PHP like many others. I got interested to doing web rather than desktop as it is always were I spend my time the most. Facebooking, GitHubing, learning and reading about new techs, patterns, tutorials etc. is my daily routine. I can't imagine my life without Web. Without Web, my life feels empty.
Made most of my projects on PHP & I work mostly on the Backend site as I'm bad with designing. They may seem dull according to todays standard, but I believe in time I'll be able to reach to make apps like big companies do. While I do work on PHP, I'm also looking forward to do new challenges. Trying out languages like Python, C#, Java, new artchitecture pattern like Multi-Tenancy, Micro-Service, new frontend frameworks like Angular2, React etc.
As my hobby, I like watching movies, playing video games and watching animes.
Have a look at my Resume if you are interested.

Bradley Whitford could be headed back to TV.
The West Wing alum has landed the lead in ABC's comedy pilot, Trophy Wife, starring alongside Malin Akerman, who plays, well, you know.
This would be Whitford's first regular TV role since 2010's The Good Guys.
The actor will play a twice-married father of three (terrible children), who falls in love with reformed party girl, played by Akerman. But the transition is rough to say the least. The single-camera comedy comes from executive producers by Emily Halpern and Sarah Haskinswhich.
Since The Good Guys, Whitford has had guest spots on The Mentalist, Parks and Recreation, and appeared in last year's The Cabin in the Woods.
