Studies of politics, law, and political economy--long central to the discipline of history--have been rejuvenated in recent years by the influence of cultural and social history and interdisciplinary interactions with political science, economics, and law. Our faculty and graduate students are among the nation's leading practitioners in what is sometimes called the "new political history," exploring political ideologies, practices, and structures in a wide range of time periods and places.

Baek Ji Young talks about the advantages and disadvantages of being married to younger hubby Jung Suk Won
Singer Baek Ji Young talked about her picture perfect marriage on MBC FM4U's It's Kim Hyun Chul of Afternoon Discovery radio program yesterday. She and her handsome husband, Jung Suk Won, have been the envy of many. However, their 9-year age gap has made their relationship unique in a couple of ways.
During her radio interview, the "I Only Need One Love" singer was asked about the advantages and disadvantages of having a younger husband.
"The good thing about him being 9 years younger is that we laugh a lot when we're together. There aren't a lot of times where things get serious," she happily replied. "The bad thing about his being 9 years younger is that the wives of his friends are too young. They're so very green. I often skip out on [couple outings]. It hurts my heart."
I don't know about you, but I think this couple raises the bar for relationship goals. The Creating Destiny actor always looks so much in love with his wife that it touches your heart. The issue with his friends' wives seems so minor compared to their strong love for each other. A few weeks after their storybook wedding in 2013, the couple had to overcome a heartbreaking miscarriage. They have helped each other heal by being there for one another.
What do you think about Baek Ji Young's pros and cons list about her relationship?

It is important to understand that Forte, as a VST host, is part of a performance system that also includes your choice of PC, OS, plugins, and audio/MIDI interfaces. Brainspawn does not offer system integration services. Instead we have developed a number of tools to assist you in integrating a performance-ready system.
When assembling a performance rig, please use these tools to build confidence in your system.
Stress Test (Tools Menu)
The stress test tool in the Tools menu exercises your rig by simulating MIDI input and performing scene changes. You can configure the stress test to perform various operations and leave it running for hours. You can also pump more MIDI into your system via stress than you could ever by simply playing a keyboard.
If your live rig can survive indefinite amounts of stress, that is a good confidence builder. However, it is not any sort of "certification" of reliability. The primary value in the stress test is if it fails. If it fails (either a hang, or dropouts, or a crash, or a blue-screen, it positively indicates that a component of your system is not durable.
Be sure to turn your audio inputs down during stress tests. The output is decidedly not very musical!
Diagnostics Display Shows You Audio Dropouts and MIDI Activity (Tools Menu)
Use the Diagnostics display in the Tools menu to see a count of audio dropouts as well as total MIDI events in or out. Use this during a stress test. If you see the audio dropout counter incrementing, its a sign that something in the system is choking occasionally. This many not always be a big deal. It depends upon when the dropouts occur and your own particular usage.
Memory Display Shows Available Memory (Tools Menu)
Use the Memory display on the Tools menu to see how much usable memory you have. See chapter 12 of the Operations Guide for more details.
On 32 bit versions of Windows with 4GB of RAM, it is normal to see usable memory of only about 1500MB or so on an empty rack. The reason for this is that 32 bit Windows by default give each application only 2GB of memory. It is not a problem with Forte. About 500MB of that is loaded with the application and a large number of Windows DLL components. It is possible, using the /3GB switch in BOOT.INI (search the Microsoft support site for specifics) to allocate 3GB to each application.
DPC Latency Checker Shows Device Driver Behavior
DPC Latency Checker is not a Brainspawn tool. It is a free download from http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml Run this tool and verify you can get "green" results. This indicates your OS drivers are behaving well for real-time audio. Use this in combination with the Diagnostics display and the Stress test.
Another tool recently recommended is "LatencyMon" at http://www.resplendence.com/latencymon.
Safe Mode is Useful for Narrowing Down Problem Plugins
Start Forte in Safe Mode by holding down the left CTRL key while clicking on the icon. You will be given the opportunity to "exclude" certain plugins from this run of Forte. If you load a rack with plugins excluded, they will be replaced by proxies (which are just internal placeholders). By excluding plugins, you can narrow down problems to specific plugins.
REMEMBER: In safe mode, the rack is not automatically enabled for streaming - you must press the rack power button to start
Configuration Manifests Show You What Changed (Tools Menu)
Problem: A rack file once worked perfectly on your PC, but now it doesn't, or you've moved it to another PC and it doesn't work.
Use a configuration manifest to help diagnose the changes in your setup that may be affecting your Forte rig. Here's how:
* Once your rack is working the way you want it to, select the new Tools menu item "Create Installation/Configuration Manifest"
* Answer "Yes" when asked to embed the manifest in your rack file. The next time you save your rack file, the manifest will be contained within it.
* A manifest is a snapshot of your configuration containing:
** A record of every DLL module (VST plugins, ASIO drivers, Windows components, 3rd party components) and its version
** Key configuration settings from OPTION.INI
* When you have a problem, select the new Tools menu item "Validate Against Manifest" to create a difference report in your Windows clipboard. This can then be pasted into Notepad or other text editor to view.
* The difference report contains:
** A list of manifest items missing from the current configuration (e.g. DLLs)
** A list of manifest items in your current configuration that are not in the manifest
** Any manifest items that are different (e.g. DLL versions are different)
** Matching items
You may also copy the embedded manifest to the clipboard for examination with Tools|Copy Manifest to Clipboard, and delete the current manifest with Tools|Clear Manifest.
Common Advice for Plugin Problems
Use Single Threaded Mode (Preferences Menu)
Forte uses different threads for different plugins, and sometimes plugins cannot handle this. Go into preferences and uncheck "Use all available CPUs" and restart Forte. This will use only one CPU core/thread for all streaming. You will waste CPU capacity, but it has been known to help with some plugins.
Use "Disconnect on Scene Change" (Scene Commands Tab)
Scene changes can be complicated times for plugins. Right in the middle of processing both audio and MIDI, they are asked to completely reconfigure their sound. A Scene change typically causes a new VST "chunk" (FXB or FXP data block) to be downloaded into the plugin. Some plugins have a hard time with this. Try disconnecting the plugin during scene changes. On the Scene Commands tab of the plugin console, check the "Disconnect this instrument when loading configuration data." box.
Don't Download new plugin data on Scene Change (Scene Commands Tab)
You can also check the box "Do not use per-scene configuration data" to avoid having a new VST chunk downloaded during a scene change. This is especially recommended for sampler plugins. In this case, the plugin will remain configured the same during the entire set, but you can send program changes to it on scene change. This is much more light-weight. All this is configured on the Scene Commands tab.
Run Forte in Administrator Mode
Some plugins can't be discovered or don't behave correctly on Windows Vista or Windows 7 unless Forte is running with Administrator privileges. Right click on the Forte shortcut and configure it to always run as administrator.
Less Common Advice for Plugins Problems
Change the Device Compatibility file
Forte tries to make a good decision about how to get and set VST configuration (chunks or FXB/FXP data). However, sometimes a plugin wants something different to get or set its entire state. Forte has a way to override scene capture and recall behavior for individual plugins. A file called "DeviceCompatibility.xml" in the install directory contains plugin-specific settings which can override the default behavior. Plugins are referenced in this file by either CLSID or VST ID. If your favorite plugin does not correctly restore its settings on scene change, add it to this file. Note that this MUST be a valid XML file in order for the feature to work.
An example entry would be:
1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6:
<Device Name="KarmaFX"> <saveFXB bool="1"/> <saveFXP bool="0"/> <saveProgramNumber bool="0"/> <saveParams bool="0"/> </Device>
This instructs Forte how to save scenes, not restore them, so you must restart Forte, reload your rack, and recapture your scenes.
The entry is defined by the Device tag. Plugins can be identified in several ways:
* Name="<partial case-insensitive plugin name>" - affects any plugin that matches the plugin name
* Name="<partial case-insensitive plugin vendor name>" - affects any plugin by a vendor
* CLSID="<a big string of letters and numbers>" - affects a specific plugin. A CLSID is how Forte unambiguously identifies a plugin. This value matches the value Forte uses to identify the plugin in its plugin cache file (plugins.xml).
The flags that can be used within a Device element include:
* saveFXB - if 1, save an FXB chunk with a scene
* saveFXP - if 1, save an FXP chunk with a scene
* saveProgramNumber - if 1, save the VST program number with a scene
* saveParams - if 1 save the VST parameters with a scene (typically only effects would use this option)
* isVSTi - if 1 forces a plugin to be identified as an instrument plugins. This is useful for example with Guitar Rig which is an effect plugin, not an instrument, but since you would typically want it to have its own module and be fed by audio input, you can force it to be treated as an instrument.
Diagnosing Crashes and Freezes
Forte Crashes
Forte crashes are usually accompanied by an offer to submit a crash report. Please do so if at all possible. Crash dump files are essential to finding and fixing crashes within the Forte application itself.
Plugin-caused Crashes
If a crash happens within a VST plugin, you will usually get a VST crash handler, which displays:
- Forte version
- Plugin version
- Plugin vendor (if known)
- The action Forte was attempting with the plugin when the crash occurred
Please report this to the plugin vendor first. If the plugin vendor believes this is a Forte issue, have them contact Brainspawn.
Blue Screen Crashes
Blue Screens are ALWAYS a result of a defective device driver. Typically this will be an audio driver, a MIDI driver, or a software protection device driver.
If Forte freezes during an operation, work to identify if the condition can be consistently reproduced, then try the following
Start in Safe Mode (launch Forte while holding down the left CTRL key) and exclude some of the plugins - reload the rack file and see if the hang can be reproduced. Retry as necessary until you narrow the hang to a specific plugin.
Start Task Manager (or Process Explorer at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx) and see if the CPUs are 100% busy.
Open the Diagnostics display in the Tools menu and see if the dropout count in increasing during the freeze.
Make sure you don't have a MIDI feedback loop
Forte Log File
Forte maintains a log file that has adjustable levels of output. It is located in your application data directory under brainspawn forte. You can also conveniently access it using the menu command Tools|Log File|View... which will open it in notepad. You can adjust the output levels in Preferences Logging Level. The levels are Silent, Errors (default), Warnings, or Information.
If you are having a problem finding an audio driver or plugin, or any other type of startup problem, you can sometimes find useful information in the log file. Sometimes you will need to adjust preferences to change the logging level to Information, and restart Forte before viewing the log. The log will contain detailed information about what Forte did during startup.

Notes on tall gaiwans. Could be helpful to research late Ming and Qing qaiwans. Most scholars use tall gaiwan to drink directly from. So the flair of the rim and the balance of the weight is important. Top heavy might not be ideal? And light color inside to judge the liquor?

Invention of Velcro
After a walk in the Swiss woods with his dog one day in 1941, Georges de Mestral was astounded by the ability of burrs to stick to his dog's coat and his own clothes. When he got home, he shoved burrs under a microscope and saw that its barbed seed pods hooked easily with the looped fibers of his coat. He realized that he could produce a new type of fastening product.
It was not an easy task, though, eventually taking him 10 years to perfect the product, using cotton but settling on nylon. At first people laughed at the idea but by the time Georges de Mestral (1907 – 1990) received a patent for the product in 1955 the idea for the "zipperless zipper" was well received. He named the product Velcro, from the French words velours (velvet) and crochet (hook).
Today, Velcro is used almost everywhere: apparel, shoes, leashes, nuclear power plants, battle tanks, in the space shuttle and many more. All thanks to the burr plant.

There are possible side effects of Testosterone Enanthate use, but we will find they are extremely easy to avoid for the healthy adult male. When we refer to the healthy adult male we are excluding the issue of low testosterone. For the low level patient, the probability of side effects will be extremely low. In such a case, the individual is merely replacing what he's lacking and nothing more. For the performance athlete, the side effects of Testosterone Enanthate will carry a greater probability, but should still be very controllable. Most men can tolerate high levels of testosterone very well. However, as with many things in life individual response and sensitivity issues will play a role. This is not unique to Testosterone Enanthate but holds true with all things we put in our body. In order to understand the possible side effects of Testosterone Enanthate, we have broken them down into their separate categories along with all the information you'll need.

Animation Naming Conventions
Oh boy. Looks like this new animation system is going to be complicated. I originally thought that you could direct Construct 2 to look into specific folders for the animations I would need. I was then going to name the folders after different variables I would be triggering. Well, the folder thing is wrong. In fact, as far as I can tell, the folder is just to help you keep track of your animations better.
So, "what's the solution?" you may be asking. Well, variables thing will work, but they will have to be in the actual animation name. So now, the animation for flying north without holding anything is "FlyEmptyLoopN". Looks kind of lengthy, right? The new breakdown is like this:
Ground/Fly/Fast + Empty/Civ/LiftSm/LiftLg + Start/Loop/Stop + Direction
"Flight" "Holding" "Animation State" "Direction"
So, Yes, it is complicated. But I have to keep telling myself that I only have to set this up once. Once these states are in place, it should account for being able to hold all civilians and objects (heavy and light). I think I have the whole thing worked out. I might work on the lifting of objects first as apposed to before when I put a civilian in first. We'll have to see.
Till next time,

Welcome to Unboxed: Supplements, where Delicious Living's supplement guru Todd Runestad reviews the latest supplement products to have graced his desk.
In this edition, Runestad examines brain health supplements. More than mere memory enhancers, cognitive health products are broadening in scope to address all the lifestyle problems that are in your head—stress, sleep, vitality, balance in mood and mind. Here's a dozen supplements that can reorient your shelf sets.
This classic TCM centuries-old herbal formula, Xiao Yao Wan, is commonly referred to as Free & Easy Wanderer. It's supposed to help naturally adapt to stress with a calming combination of herbs.
This TCM botanical formula is designed to help relax your body and mind and encourage a good night's rest.
Melatonin is the mother of all sleep supplements. The hormone helps to regulate the body's circadian rhythm, which is vital for a healthy sleep pattern. Carlson brings its SKU to the market in a gummy format.
The omega-3 fatty acids DHA and EPA are essential for the brain—DHA is a major fat comprising the brain itself. These squeeze shots have a whopping 2,400 mg of omegas in a tasty coconut flavor.
There are five ways this 90-calorie sleep protein helps bring about sleep and maintain the zzzz's. Eight grams of plant protein and a balance of carbs and fiber helps support metabolism. And 500 mg of tryptophan helps with the snoozies. Tart cherry is a naturally occurring support system for melatonin. B vitamins support serotonin synthesis. And calcium and magnesium support relaxation and sleep all night long.
This full-spectrum hemp extract gives balance, which is vital because sometimes it's just about feeling good for a day. When you achieve balance in your day, you have energy that can help with stress, sleep quality and a sense of clarity and focus. The combination formula has hemp, but then also ashwagandha for stress. Fused together, and you have serenity in a capsule!
This formulation has a solid dose of high-quality methylcobalamin B12, more than a gram of fish oil and our favorite adaptogen, KSM-66, which has a slew of studies showing efficacy for stress, performance and mental clarity. It's got the 24/6 ginkgo, which is the traditional brain-health go-to botanical, and then black pepper extract to boost bioavailability of nutrients, which will be needed because of window dressing quantities of carnitine, PS, ginseng, rhodiola and huperzine-A.
This one's based on the Theracurmin brand of curcumin with a blend of a number of nutrients. Bacopa is used in Ayurvedic medicine for memory-related issues; clinicals show the herb restricts beta-amyloid plaque. Celery seed extract may be unexpected, but it was shown to enhance memory recall in a 2014 study. Resveratrol, the fountain of youth red wine molecule, has been shown in animal studies to stimulate the hippocampus, which stores and manages memory.
This mental clarity formula is powered by mushrooms—lion's mane, reishi, poria and chage, all organic, as a tonic for your noggin.
Three adaptogenic herbs combine with the Zembrin brand of sceletium, which has been shown in human studies to make happy people…happier. A little bit of L-theanine helps you feel relaxed without feeling drowsy.
Stress management and mood improvement are at hand with this bottle of Serenelle now. It's got lemon balm, ashwagandha, L-theanine and GABA.
This formula is based on a 1983 study in New York City schools that gave a million school kids more nutritious foods that contributed to one of the largest gains in standardized test scores in U.S. history. It's kind of a multivitamin and mineral, with additional enzymes and a food concentrate blend. Bonus: It comes in wafers for easy consumption.

My name is Adam Nicholson. I grew up in Tennessee, worked in American politics, and moved to Korea. To my surprise I loved it, so I stayed. I recently finished a master's degree in Korean Studies at Yonsei University.
I am not an expert on Korean culture and I would never claim to be. I have lived here for almost 5 years and the more I live here the more interested I become in understanding my place in Korea.
This blog is simply an outlet for me to share some of the things I love about Korea.
I am particularly interested in looking at the intersections of sexuality, gender, and economic development in Korea. If you have recommendations or disagreements, please comment or email. This blog is a learning process for me, and hopefully others too.

Dogs and humans have been living together for 15,000 years -- a long time to get used to each other. Behavioural biologists at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig are investigating how well the animals have adapted to humans. They discovered that dogs are frequently better at understanding human gestures than other animal species. For example, dogs understand referential gestures, such as pointing, and realise they can get away with doing something forbidden when their owners just happen to be looking elsewhere.

HIMYM Will Do an Episode in Rhyme
This season of How I Met Your Mother has been kind of a disaster, between Marshall's terribly unfunny road trip away from the rest of the cast, Ted's terrible attitude about single women, Robin's over-the-top hatred of Barney's mom, and the general intra-friend-group nastiness. But maybe this will help: Cobie Smulders tells E! that one of the upcoming episodes is all in verse. "It's like every second line is a rhyme. It varies," Smulders says. "The writers just nailed it. It's so fun and they just made it so funny, but so lyrical at the same time." Hey, something weird and creative! This is the most promising HIMYM news in ages.

In the Obama White House's quest to shore up its base, First Lady Michelle Obama will be doing an interview with race-baiter, MSNBC host, and National Action Network head Al Sharpton. This makes the third open ally of the Obama administration getting a prestigious interview with the White House, after Chris Matthews' drooling MSNBC interview with President Obama, and Obama's interview with comedian and daytime television sycophant Steve Harvey. Matthews famously remarked that Obama gave him a "thrill" up his leg; Harvey has stated that Obama is a "great man in history"; Sharpton has called Obama "the new Kennedy."
The Obama administration's poll numbers have been dropping steadily since the rollout of Obama's signature Affordable Care Act program. The attempt to halt that slide has thus far met with little success.
UPDATE: This post originally labeled Michelle Malkin First Lady of the United States. That, obviously, was incorrect. The good news: she appreciated the compliment.

We wanted to make an art piece that gave a vision of belief, community and discovery to the students in Rosebery. Tree of life sits in a vast wilderness with an expansive sky. The tree is filled with a community/flock of birds from all walks of life representing families, individuals and collectives. Colours were chosen to represent change in season and change in life.
The birds are also a symbol of freedom. Only some of the birds were painted with the idea being that a few can stand out against many.. This was a bit of our metaphor for Rosebery, to give hope and inspiration.. The tree is gnarled and twisted representing the trials and triumphs of wisdom and growth.
I made this commission with Forrest Whitten an amazing saw miller, furniture maker and builder. We felled the trees, milled them and then carved the timber. At the end of this process our waste was enough to half fill a garbage bag.

Thor: The Dark World Set Photos Reveal Chris Hemsworth in Action
On the heels of the first wave of battle-scene photos from the set of Thor: The Dark World, Splash News has released another round of images from Bourne Wood, Surrey, this time featuring star Chris Hemsworth alongside Jaimie Alexander.
While fans undoubtedly will be happy to see the thunder god again — even if it's only been a few months since Marvel's The Avengers — the most interesting thing about these new photos is the armored man to Hemsworth's right in the above image. Yes, the guy in the merman-like helmet. Is he one of the warrior-creatures we saw in the earlier set, or someone (something?) else entirely?
See more photos below, and check out the entire set on the Splash News website.
Directed by Alan Taylor (Game of Thrones), Thor: The Dark World also stars Tom Hiddleston, Natalie Portman, Kat Dennings, Anthony Hopkins, Idris Elba, Zachary Levi, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje and, potentially, former Doctor Who star Christopher Eccleston. The film opens Nov. 8, 2013.

Confessions of a Disaster
Boy am I a stubborn person. A good quality at times, admittedly this may be one of them.
In my never ending attempts to create all things vegan, I was rightfully intrigued by Seven Spoons' post with a call for entry to Sugar High Friday. Entry #31 is entitled "Neutral Territory: Tasting the Many Shades of White". I was proud, almost cocky with these lavishly pouffy white creations encircling my mind. I do things vegan and I like a challenge, so this had to be good.
What is fluffier, smoother, stickier or more delightful than pavlova I thought?
Not familiar with pavlova? Made of a soft meringue, it has a crisp, white crust encasing a sinfully soft, marshmallowly centre. If that's not sweet enough, right before serving the pavlova is dolloped in a velvety whipped cream and topped with passion fruit or fresh berries. Aaahhhh.
As if that's not the most non-vegan thing around?
I tried, I attempted…. anything to replicate the lovely meringue. I even found a vegan recipe claiming to top a pie beautifully. I was determined to contribute to SHF, so I thought I'd have to give it a go.
This recipe called for egg replacer and agar – it would seem to make sense. Agar is a gelatinous substance that is derived from seaweed. It's commonly used in jellies, ice cream and other desserts in place of traditional gelatin. The egg replacer, however, was a bit odd— mostly a biocarbonate used to create bubbles, like baking powder. I can't even begin to describe the sounds of rejection my Kitchen Aid was wailing. Slapping this glump of a mixture around in the bowl as it managed to froth it up a bit. The smell was not exactly appealing but the taste was sweet. Sugar is typically predictable.
Being in the middle of things I couldn't bring myself to quit now. I had to bake it. I hoped. Honestly I hoped that it would perk up in the oven.
Pavlova bakes slowly for over an hour, so for the most part, I left it. Gradually, an odd scent of warm Play Doh hovered in my kitchen, I held my breath then peeked. If only the concoction had found a way to turn green it could have resembled the alien mass it had become in my oven. It was about the same shape but with a strange dusty gloss and the colour of it was anything but white. Even my eighth grade version of Tuna Noodle Casserole was less frightening, you know the one with the potato chip topping that you have to make with 5 other people, each taking a turn to open a can of soup?
I'd been stumped. I've never run into a recipe I couldn't veganize. Counting my remaining two days to complete, I pitched the mess and hung my head.
This morning I was working on my site, getting ready to make my next post. I noticed the comment I'd made on the Seven Spoons site. I couldn't just roll over, it's just not me. I've hung up my hat (for now) with the meringue but this is a dessert project! It's everyone's favourite meal of the day… even for vegans!
I still needed something spectacular, something with height too, if anything to lift up my own spirits. I wanted light, airy layers to create different flavour combinations with every bite…. that and I knew that if in doubt, one of them would be successful. Making it a habit to create dishes that sustain and are in season, I chose to add strawberries. As an added plus, I figured the lightest blush of a strawberry purée just might represent my experience of getting this all together.
I wish I could have said that it worked. I had each component made successfully. I don't know if it was the weather or the threat of a full moon but the layers would not work together. The cake held up wonderfully. A light, but sturdy cake, perfect for the first layer. (A recipe I fully intend on developing further.) Next was my tofu cheesecake. I've made it a hundred times. The cheesecake even my "I will never eat tofu" Dad gobbled up. I just would not hold together enough to carry the miserably sagging mousse intended for the top. I was nearly in tears. Or ready to kick my stove. I needed some hope and a hug.
With intuition only a Nana can have, my grandmother called in the nick of time. Describing my dilemma, she said, in her perfect Scottish accent, "What you need dear, are cookies." More like a tissue I thought. All the while feeling sorry for myself I thought my best contribution to the Sugar High Friday would be a photo of a tall glass of soy milk to go with everyone else's success stories.
Throwing in the proverbial tea towel, I went to bed. Still mulling on my Nana's advice, it came to me. There really is something about a cookie. Something classic. Something comforting.
Nana's Shortbread Cookies
1/4 Cup Corn Starch
1/4 Cup Confectionery Sugar
1 Cup Unbleached, All Purpose Flour
3/4 Cup Margarine
1/4 teaspoon Lemon Zest *
*(1/2 tsp dried lavender flowers may be substituted, on a purple day)
1 Tablespoon Granulated Sugar
Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
Sift flour, corn starch and sugar into a large bowl. Add the margarine and lemon zest.
Stir the mixture, using a wooden spoon, just until everything begins to come together in a soft dough.
Roll the dough out to about a 1/4″ thickness.
Cut cookies out, using a 2 ", round cookie cutter. (Or another favourite shape)
Top with a sprinkling of the granulated sugar.
Bake for approximately 10 minutes, watching carefully towards the end. The cookies should be removed just as the edges begin to turn golden.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
Once you've finished baking, you should check out all the other beautiful entrants.

As Turkey's Erdoğan Blocks Twitter, Dissidents Use Graffiti to Spread Work-Around
Since May 2013, Turkish protesters have used Twitter to share photos, videos and audio recordings of police brutality and expose alleged corruption within the country's government. On Friday, Turkey's prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, officially blocked the microblogging site, after explaining that Twitter had failed to "implement court orders and rules of law" dictating that certain material would be censored.
"I don't care what the international community says," Erdoğan told a crowd at his campaign rally on Thursday. "Everyone will witness the power of the Turkish Republic." The speech, translated by the Turkish paper Hürriyet Daily News, comes less than two weeks before the country will vote for its next prime minister.
On Friday afternoon, Twitter's @Policy account tweeted that the company was opposed to Erdoğan's ban:
We stand with our users in Turkey who rely on Twitter as a vital communications platform. We hope to have full access returned soon.
— Policy (@policy) March 21, 2014
Similarly, White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters that the Obama administration was "deeply concerned" about the Twitter ban, as it undermined Turkish citizens' "ability to exercise freedom of expression." The comment mirrored long-standing criticisms among many young Turkish people that Erdoğan has been stifling freedom of speech and religion inside the country.
Erdoğan has been waging a war against Twitter for the past 10 months. During the Gezi Park protests last summer, which began in earnest after police used tear gas against environmental activists, Erdoğan referred to Twitter as a "troublemaker." More recently, in February, he accused a "robot lobby" (bots created by his opponents) of attacking his administration online.
Keep up with this story and more by subscribing now
Like the "robot lobby" accusations, Erdoğan's most recent threats to block Twitter for Turkey's 10 million users were spurred by a series of audio recordings, shared on the platform, that allegedly expose corruption inside his administration. If the recordings are authentic, they implicate the prime minister in wiretapping and money laundering, as well as attempting to interfere with media coverage—the latter charge not so far-fetched, given the prime minister's position toward Silicon Valley.
"Turkey has never shied away from censorship in the past," the Electronic Frontier Foundation's director for international freedom of expression, Jillian York, tells Newsweek. When you visit a site banned by the government, it points users to the court order responsible for the blockage. York says this latest attempt at censorship "is pretty brazen. It's been a while since a country has blocked Twitter."
Turkey now joins China and Iran as the only countries attempting to block the site. Banning or otherwise censoring social media has proved difficult for leaders, as savvy users can readily get around localized censorship using the anonymous Tor network or changing their DNS settings to access the site through servers in other nations.
And plenty of people in Turkey are sophisticated about the Internet and social media. "We're not talking about Syria," says York. Almost half of Turkey is on the Internet, and many users have the resources and know-how to get around online censorship. In fact, protesters have already begun graffiting unblocked DNS addresses around the city and sharing them—where else?—on Twitter:

"I don't think this ban is going to last," York says.
According to TechCrunch, which compared Twitter activity in Turkey in the past few days, while the ban does seem to have had some negative effect on the number of tweets coming out of the country, it may have done Erdoğan more harm than good in terms of global exposure. Before Thursday, there were about 200 tweets per day around the world that mentioned both "Turkey" and "Twitter." On Friday, there were more than 80,000.
Globally, Twitter users have begun circulating a poster designed in the style of the Turkish flag but depicting Pac-Man eating Twitter's bird logo:

Here at Atlas Packaging, we can create Mail Order Tree Boxes, specially designed to ship trees via a courier system. As you'd expect they are generally long narrow boxes that are available in varying widths and heights.
Typically they are large boxes that need to be strong to withstand the courier system. Alongside this, we use secure size parcels with great fittings to assist in the products travel experience. For tree boxes we'll also use 'Warning Text' instructions for potentially difficult handling if needed to ensure damage is prevented.

Projects don't come about through some law of nature. They're a mental construct we've created to help ourselves manage our work.
I spend most of my time on projects.I've worked on projects to build e-commerce systems, projects to build and update websites, projects to create new products, even projects to define the way we do projects within an organisation.
The idea of a project as the fundamental unit of work is pretty pervasive within our industry. Many organisations structure themselves almost entirely around the portfolio of projects that they are undertaking.
And a large industry, think of PRINCE2 and the PMI and various other project management bodies, has emerged solely to service the interests of projects and project managers.
But how real are these projects?
Somewhere along the line we've reasoned that dividing the stuff we have to do into discrete, tightly-bounded chunks called projects will make it easier for us to coordinate related activities, communicate with people affected by our actions, and so on.
In other words, a project is a model. It's a mental abstraction we use to help ourselves make sense of the world. And, as the saying goes, "All models are wrong, but some are useful".
So the concept of a project is a simplification,life sometimes doesn't split cleanly into projects. Thus I often see problems such as the following:
Projects create artificial boundaries between activities.
For example, they create a split between building and operating websites and other systems.
One day we're building out elements of the site as part of a project; the next day we're making similar changes as part of day-to-day operations. And the mechanisms we use to prioritise work, allocate resources, etc, all change completely overnight.
This creates conflict, confusion and overheads: arguments about what constitutes a "bug" versus an "enhancement"; change management boards to classify work between the two; dispute resolution mechanisms, and so on.
Some activities don't fit neatly into projects.
People have to do a lot of stuff that doesn't have anything to do with a specific project, product and customer administration, system maintenance, staff training, etc.
Because this work isn't part of a project, we don't allocate time for it, don't set up mechanisms to resolve conflicting priorities, and otherwise fail to manage it.
This then flows over into our projects. How often have you seen a project fail to make the expected progress because people's time is being frittered away on other activities?
Or conversely, how often has necessary work been overlooked because people were too busy on their project tasks?
We set up projects that are ragbags of loosely related activities.
To avoid the above problem, we try to put everything into a project, so we end up with projects that aggregate an incoherent suite of activities into one bundle purely for the convenience of our mental model.
And again this creates overheads, people spend time listening to status reports on activities that have absolutely no bearing on their own work, for example.
These are all signs that our model is breaking down.
It's interesting to look at some of the trends going on in software development in this light. For example, agile development teams are going into progressively tighter iterations.
30 day sprints were the norm when Scrum first came into vogue, but seven days is much more common now. And kanban teams are moving completely away from the idea of defined projects and iterations in order to try to deliver a continuous flow of new features into production.
This aligns with the pressure on most organisations to deliver change more rapidly, and at the same time creates big questions for the idea of a project as the defining model for organising our work.
I think this "flow" model is going to get a lot more mileage in the coming year.
That doesn't mean that the idea of a project is irrelevant. Some work does fall neatly into projects. And the idea of a project has served many organisations well.
I can certainly think of several organisations where lack of a well-defined project portfolio and project management structures has created an unholy mess. Interdependent activities are run independently, with consequent problems at the interfaces.
People with common goals act at cross-purposes with each other. And no-one has any clear idea of what is going on overall, nor of how people's time and attention are being prioritised.
But projects are no longer the only game in town. Be prepared to adjust the model to fit the realities of your situation, rather than vice versa.

Great article. It seems to me that digital has created business cultures where change is fundamental, somewhat obliterating the meaning/concept of a "project".
Many digital businesses are in fact projects in themselves - it's only companies still wrestling with digital who need to follow processes that have more in common with civil engineering than software/web/app development.
Great article, and as a Projects Director at a digital agency I agree. The problem you've not addressed is that a lot of the time the "project" model is forced by the client, who want a fixed cost at the outset. You can only supply a fixed cost for a fixed project scope.
Agile projects require an agile budget, and not all clients (especially those that are government funded for example) are prepared to agree to this.
As Alexander points out, whilst your article is entirely correct, the challenge is around managing expectations, setting scope and deliverables etc. Finance or procurement people, in particular, don't really like the idea of buying something which cannot be defined! If it isn't delivered how will they know? What recourse will they have if there is no 'spec'? That is why projects, specs, deliverables, are typically required.
We are seeing that there is in fact a way for companies, and especially agencies, to take on projects but still follow the ideas of flow and small iterations. A project needs to be thought of as the delivery of a system/application that satisfies your customers needs and aligns with your business goals. It's not a predefined deliverable detailed to the nth degree, it's a high level grouping of plans that describe the expected outcomes for the business.
Typically with projects that agencies or companies undertake, the planning is front loaded so that all planning is completed before production begins. Believing that a few PMs or planners can determine how everything should work and what each person will be doing for the entire duration of a project is simply impractical (if not delusional), but worse, leads to an inferior product being delivered because that process does not allow for the team to contribute ideas, reflect on how things are going, and refine the original concept. During a project the business requirements may change, the market positioning may need refining, and it will be very likely that your understanding of the project will increase throughout the project lifecycle thus enabling you to make better decisions at each iteration to ensure the project you deliver is the best it can be with the resources you have, rather than on spec.
Agencies, whilst trying to outwardly present themselves as adopters of agile, typically find themselves in a hard place. They need to provide a quotation to a client that describes scope, budget and timings. If you speak to most agile evangelists, they'll tell you that you simply cannot commit to all three, and that is correct, however it does not mean the client won't get what they want, or the budget will run over in terms of time or budget.
And that is what we have been seeing at easyBacklog (http://easybacklog.com) with our customers as a fundamental shift in the way agencies and even internal teams deal with this problem. By outlining the project goals at the outset, and building up a quotation/estimate from your backlog of project tasks (stories), and importantly involving the delivery team in all estimations of effort required, you can very quickly get to a point where you can estimate project costs, you can commit to a project scope, and you can predict the delivery date. Whether you and your client/boss choose to stick to all of those points is irrelevant, what is important is that you can make that commitment up front, and get buy in from your customer or boss to get the resources you need to deliver the project (which is of course a business goal, not a set of detailed deliverables). Using a product such as easyBacklog (admittedly even a spreadsheet would do so long as you want to waste time with change control management), at the start of each iteration (ideally no more than 10 working days) the scope, budget and timings are defined, however the team, the client, and the project managers can all contribute ideas to add to the backlog of tasks, remove or rewrite tasks based on the knowledge they have since acquired, and refine the project at each stage. Your team, who are experts in their domain, become involved in the creation of the project, however it's ultimately still the decision of the client/boss whether any of those changes should be implemented. If you have a tool such as easyBacklog which keeps track of changes throughout the project and allows you to predict the impact on budget or timings, and log what functionality may fall out as a result, you get the best of both worlds. You can still commit to a budget, you can still commit to a time, but the client has the flexibility and safeguards to freely and knowledgeably change their mind about what they want and see the effect of this.

Documentary Film Fixer (Heidelberg)
Hello! I am the producer for a documentary, and we are shooting in the area around Heidelberg (Neckargemünd and Neckarzimmern) August Protected content 3. I'm looking for a fixer, which means being savvy, resourceful, creative-problem solver, and reliable. A fixer acts as a scout, helps me with logistics (housing, transportation), translate for us (German-English), acts as a local expert, and would have a very flexible schedule during those dates. The work would only be part-time during those dates. It's unpaid, but we provide food, transportation, and the opportunity to learn about documentary filmmaking. The crew is small - me, the director, and our shooter. The documentary follows three young adults from China with physical disabilities for three years, and two of our characters are going to Germany through a program. It's their first time outside of China, so it's critical for us to film their experience and reflections during this time. If you are interested or want to learn more, please email me at Protected content . I'm looking for someone to start working with me immediately, to help out before we arrive. Thanks!

No issue demonstrates the complex interrelation between the insurance industry and the government as vividly the National Flood Insurance Program.
Established by National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, the NFIP is administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and currently covers some 5.6 million Americans. Over the past three years the program has struggled, lapsing three times and limping along with temporary extensions. With the one-year extension signed last year by President Obama set to expire at the end of September, lawmakers are once again struggling to craft a lasting fix to the cash-strapped program.
H.R.1309, the Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2011 is a five-year extension of the program is currently under consideration by the House Committee on Financial Services. Sponsored Judy Biggert (R – IL), the bill enjoys bi-partisan support and seeks to address some of the programs most pressing issues by phasing in higher premiums and creating a Technical Mapping Advisory Council to help provide more accurate maps of flood plains. Nonetheless, the bill's fate in the House and beyond is an open question.
"I don't think it's going to be completely smooth sailing in the House but I do think we will get the bill out in some form," says Ben McKay, SVP of federal government relations for the Property Casualty Insurers Association of America. "However, if the troubles from last year are instructive, a five year extension may not acceptable to the Senate."
Likewise, Jimi Grande, SVP, Federal and Political Affairs for the National Association of Mutual Insurance Cos, questions whether the Senate would even take up a bill before the NFIP's funding expires at the end of September. "The House has done everything it can to get it started early," he says. "I wish I could tell you I was more optimistic that the Senate was going to act."
While the bill's uncertain fate in the Senate is largely due to the glacial pace at which the Upper Chamber takes up legislation, there is also simmering ideological resentment to the NFIP among proponents of limited government. Opponents of the NFIP argue that the program should be privatized and contend that by subsidizing artificially low insurance premiums the NFIP disincentives homeowners to avoid or mitigate flood risk. "There are a few Senators who don't like the idea of a flood insurance program at all," Grande acknowledges.
Indeed, in this era of newfound fiscal rectitude, the financial situation surrounding the NFIP is especially burdensome. The program is estimated to be approximately $17.5 billion in debt, expenses largely incurred in the wake of hurricanes Katrina and Rita. With the NFIP paying interests on its debt to the U.S. Treasury, many argue that its debt must be forgiven in order for the program to retain long-term solvency.
While H.R.1309 does mention the need for actuarially sound rates, it does not address the NFIP's long term debt. This may be a political liability, McKay predicts. "The conservative caucus has put holds on bills in past. Their view is that any bill that does not address the programs long term debt should not be a long-term bill."
Moreover, while "actuarially sound" rates may appeal to actuaries, they may not be politically viable. Some studies indicate that rates would at least twice as high as they are today to even help the program get anywhere near to breaking even. After years of paying artificially suppressed rates for flood insurance, homeowners would likely impart an earful to their congressional representatives if forced to suddenly find coverage in the private market. "Somebody paying premiums in a flood plain that hasn't flooded in 80 years is not going to stand for rate increases," McKay says. "Quadruple their monthly payment and congressional phones will start ringing."
McKay got a sense of this indignation first hand in April when he discussed the NFIP on C-Span's Washington Journal in April. "Having spent 40 minutes on the air answering caller questions, I can tell you that folks are not happy with the premiums they are paying now," he says. "If they do privatize the NFIP, I won't be going on any more call in shows again."
