NOTE: this post is in response to a public request from the Obama Foundation for ideas, thoughts, and more on the subject of digital citizenship, "what it means to be a good citizen online," how to foster a better online environment, etc.
Kyle R. Brady
If the internet and its future derivatives are to continue to play ever-larger roles in the lives of modern humanity, enhance the human experience, and enrich (in all senses) the experiences of all involved, then some things clearly need to change. The inherently open nature of the internet, with its built-in preference for semi-anonymity, have created a world where so-called fake news influenced the 2016 American Presidential election and daily influences the thoughts of millions, cyberbullying has become a serious concern for certain age groups and demographic sectors, and social media has developed into a vehicle for personal attack, the distribution of propaganda, groupthink, and worse. Any simple assessment of the state of the citizen-facing digital world indicates disorder and chaos that threatens to undo all the good this platform serves, to say nothing of the increasing threat of actual cyberwarfare.
If unnecessary anonymity leads to the undertaking of abuse and the worst behaviors found online, then the problems of anonymity must then be solved.
By 2017, the value of unnecessary anonymity can be seen in the clear results strewn about Twitter, the comments sections of any newspaper/blog article or YouTube video, and various online communities. Very little of the content produced by these anonymous persons requires anonymity and a notably distinct portion is clearly abusive in one fashion or another. By comparison, however, the interactions of individuals on platforms more tangibly tied to their real identity -- such as Facebook, LinkedIn, or a variety of online communities organized around a profession -- are much more civil.
For decades, anonymity has been a central tenet of digital culture despite a noteworthy lack of any factual justification for this inherent centrality. Perhaps now is the time to begin to question this longstanding premise.
Since it is exceedingly rare for persons who deeply intertwine their public, private, and professional identities -- such as academics -- to behave in wildly different behind a keyboard than in front of an audience, this may be an important aspect to pursue. By connecting the online activities of an individual with their actual identity -- even if only partially -- it seems a reasonable expectation that their behaviors would then typically conform to basic societal norms, as in offline environments. When reputation matters, behavior can be expected to improve, especially when that reputation is recorded, tracked, and easily cross-referenced.
This is not to say that online anonymity should be completely forsaken, as there will always be a time and a place for important, difficult, or fragile interactions that should not be immediately or easily tied to an individual's identity. Anonymity provided in the context of social media platforms or certain online communities, however, does not seem to produce enough of these interactions to justify the serious dedication to anonymity. In fact, when discussing the issues of cyberbullying -- either direct or through organized attacks -- this anonymity within such communities is a well-known facilitator.
Put simply, the worst impulses of humanity should no longer be provided an identity-free delivery vehicle.
Solving the Problems of Anonymity via the Private Sector
One option for solving the problem of anonymity can be easily implemented within the private sector with only one minor change to social media and online communities: private identity verification.
In this solution, each user of a social media service or online community would be required to verify their actual identity -- privately, quietly, and securely -- behind-the-scenes with the service provider or host, by simply providing a scan or photograph of a legally valid, government-issued identification document. Nothing else would have to change: usernames, links, and activities would all remain the same as the individual prefers. However, each user would innately understand that their activities could be easily linked to their actual identity, if necessary.
By requiring each user to identify themselves with each provider or host, the users would likely feel a certain amount of pressure to behave more in accordance with standard societal norms. In the event that illegal activity were to take place, the issuance of a warrant to the provider or host would then quickly produce the actual identity of the user and make them subject to any applicable legal frameworks. When engaging in activities that truly require anonymity, the user would have the option to flag it as such, internally with the provider or host, thereby permitting a different and more protected response -- subject to a review of legitimacy -- to the receipt of a warrant.
Solving the Problems of Anonymity via Digital Citizenship
Another option for solving the problem of anonymity could be implemented, with some initially difficult preparations, at the level of government: digital citizenship.
It seems likely that governments may soon be offering a digital form of citizenship to coexist and intertwine with traditional citizenship -- something Estonia seems to have already recognized -- and this digital citizenship can provide an answer to relevant socio-cultural problems. If countries were to issue digital identification and authentication processes, alongside an enhanced passport and other standard services, this digital identity could be employed within many contexts other than government. Moreover, by linking online identity and real identity -- as already discussed -- a behavioral change is likely.
Such a process -- also previously, and briefly, discussed -- would issue a unique email account (such as "firstname.lastname@example.com") that could be used as internet-wide identity authentication, similar to the present ability to login to services with a Google, Facebook, or Twitter account. There would be no need to provide any identity information -- such as name, birthday, address, or government identification numbers -- because a service provider or host could simply query the government system for permission to access this information. More important, however, is the existence of a truly authenticated identity that doesn't require the provision of private information or government identity documents to private sector entities.
In cases where anonymity would be necessary, the same protocol could be employed: an internal flag for anonymity placed on a specific activity, with specific and reasons reasons identified, and in accordance with certain protocols. Again, this anonymity flag would be subject to a review of legitimacy by the provider or host, in order to ensure no illegal or abusive behavior is occurring anonymously. No government would have access to user data without a proper warrant, since all activity data would still be stored by providers and hosts, so the existence of a government-authenticated identity does not affect or jeopardize the use of legitimate anonymity.
There are many problems to be solved, quickly, if the digital world is to remain valuable and free. However, by addressing an underlying and fundamental problem -- anonymity -- that often permits and perpetuates improper, disruptive, or illegal behavior, the digital world would be one substantial step closer to safe, secure, and socially normalized. The solutions outlined in this post are not going to be easily accepted by all and they would have some difficulty in their implementation, but this does not degrade their importance.
If the issue of needless and abusive anonymity is not soon solved, more draconian and invasive frameworks may be implemented by governments around the world. It is, therefore, in the best interest of all involved to collaboratively discover and implement a suitable solution before this occurs. And such a solution, while difficult, will only enhance the experience and utility of the digital world.

A like-kind exchange, also known as a Section 1031 exchange after the section of the Tax Code that governs it, is essentially a tax-deferral tool that postpones tax on the exchange of a property for another property of a "like kind."
There are many reasons to consider a like-kind exchange as a tax planning tool, and CPAs are "tremendously involved" in the planning and execution of them, according to Steve Breitstone, partner and head of the tax practice at Mineola, N.Y.-based Meltzer Lippe. "Accounting firms are very active in helping their clients plan for the sale of property and structuring 1031 exchanges and other ways of deferring tax," he said.
To assess the advantages of doing a like-kind exchange, Breitstone recommends looking at how much tax you will have to pay if you don't do an exchange on the sale of the property.
"It could be a function of how long you've held it, how low is the cost basis and also whether there are liabilities in excess of basis," he said. "A 1031 exchange can help avoid having to pay tax on phantom gain even where there's not a clear cash realization event."
Breitstone finds talk about like-kind exchanges being "loopholes" to be disturbing. "People are all benefitting from the rise in the real estate market," he said. "If you were to take away this tax deferral technique, there would be a mass exit from real estate and a significant decline in prices, which would have a major ripple effect on the entire economy. The purpose of allowing non-recognition under Section 1031, like many other non-recognition provisions, is that the money is going back into investment property. Is it better to have it reinvested, or go to the government?"
Although a 1031 exchange can have many advantages, there a number of avoidable mistakes that investors—and their advisors—often make, Breitstone observed. "The biggest mistake is overpaying for replacement properties," he said. "If a buyer alerts the seller and broker that he or she is looking for a replacement property, they may jack up the price because they know the buyer is up against the wall with a tight time frame.
Another mistake is depositing your exchange money with the wrong qualified intermediary. "If you don't make the right choice, you could lose your money," Breitstone cautioned. "A first step is to make sure you set up a separate account that can only be released with your signature and the intermediary's signature at a reputable institution."
Don't utilize a real estate attorney—but do use a tax attorney, Breitstone indicated. "Although you're exchanging real estate, a 1031 exchange is a tax transaction as much as a real estate transaction, if not more so," he said. "If the exchange is not done properly, the tax consequences can be significant."
"Another mistake is buying something that doesn't make sense, just to get a 1031 exchange," he said. "Sometimes a client is better off leasing the property other than buying another."
Like-kind exchanges are so formalistic that if you make a mistake, you can easily jeopardize the whole exchange, Breitstone observed. "When you close, there are expenses and adjustments paid at the closing. Mistakes such as showing the wrong figures on your closing statement can precipitate a big taxable event," he said.
A common misconception is that a 1031 exchange eliminates taxes, Breitstone noted. "The 1031 just defers taxes and, if not done appropriately, can change income from capital gains to ordinary income, subjecting that income to a much higher tax rate as well as other taxes," he said.
"An easily avoidable mistake is running out of time or buying something that doesn't make sense to own. The seller looking for an exchange only gets 45 days after closing to identify a replacement property. If the exchanger hasn't done the due diligence, or the replacement property is sold to someone else, or you don't have a contract within that time period, you're out of luck."
Tax planning is crucial, he emphasized. "A 1031 exchange requires that past, present and future planning be taken into consideration to minimize tax and economic consequences."

Knowing Words and Understanding Texts: Models of Some Basic Relationships.
Omanson, Richard C.
Prompted by current theories in reading suggesting that variation in word knowledge affects the processing of not only individual words but also clauses and sentences, this report explores some different ways in which children's comprehension processes may be affected by variation in word knowledge. The report first examines whether the effects of word knowledge on comprehension are similar for skilled and less-skilled readers, then compares how well stories containing unfamiliar versus recently taught words are remembered. It then considers various models of how comprehension processes may have been affected to produce the observed recall differences and evaluates them against experimental data. Finally, it presents some implications for theories of text processing, education, and the use of modelling as an experimental tool. (HOD)

Dear Reader:
I've finally finished reading all of Bram Stoker's Dracula last night. I've made only a single attempt prior, some years back, to surmount this magnum opus, and yet I had purchased the complete annotated version of the novel, complete with background information and footnotes, which were both fascinating and distracting at the same time.
Indeed, Mr. Stoker drew upon a vast knowledge of folklore and history for his work. And popular culture in the last 115 years has heaped more upon the tradition of the vampire, in cinema, television, and other forms of media. Neil Gaiman, in the Introduction to The New Annotated Dracula said that "Dracula is a book that cries out for annotation." And I agree in the very least that terms and usages at the fin de siècle of Victorian England have changed over time. And the editor, Leslie S. Klinger, shares the context of the time period in which the book was written. There are plenty of annotations throughout the book which are both enlightening and thought provoking.
Unfortunately they were also distracting, as the historian in me could not help but put the book down and do further research. I've always been intrigued and entertained by the stories of Count Dracula, fictional and otherwise, and thus over the years I've accumulated a great deal of knowledge pertaining to the subject. The annotations were another stepping stone to understand the myth and the legend. Yet one day I never returned to finish the story, my research had taken me too far away and I lost interest.Recently I mentioned to my World History class that we would be covering the Late Medieval Period and the Fall of Constantinople. As it turns out we were looking at a map of Europe when I announced this, and there it was–"Transylvania." And thus some of my students requested to learn more about his history of Vlad Tepes. We would be having class on Halloween, after all. So therefore I searched and found a non-annotated version of Dracula, and thusly digested its contents in a three days. While I'd be speaking about the historical Dracula, it helps to have knowledge of the fictional personage as well. Indeed, it does help as history and fantasy have mingled freely with movies and literature in the last century.
What struck me as surprising was the non-existent love affair between Mina Murray and the Count. She is not the reincarnation of some lost love of the Counts, as shown in movies like Frances Ford Coppola's version from 1992. No, Dracula attacked and cursed her out of vengeance, and to stall those who hunted him.
Mr. Renfield, a standard minion in Dracula lore, never preceded Jonathan Harker in going to Transylvania. Renfield was an experiment, already insane, by the time the Count took up partial residence in nearby Carfax abbey.
The origins of Dracula draw upon his true history, but are mingled with tales of the occult and witchcraft. Dr. Van Helsing discovered Dracula may have danced with the Devil himself on the shores of a remote lake in the mountains.
Why did Dracula come to London, then, if Mina Murray was not the object of his desire? To expand and experiment with his powers, as Dr. Van Helsing explained in pidgin English. Perhaps even begat a new race of vampires. The only thing holding him back, really, was being unable to leave his castle and homeland. His powers are tied to the earth there, in the "land beyond the forest." He had to figure ways to being the earth of his resting place with him.
Would I recommend somebody else read Bram Stoker's Dracula? Of course. Yet the reader should be cautioned the storytellers of the late 1900 wrote novels in a different discourse than the novelists of today. The chapters are divided up in to transcriptions of diaries, newspaper articles, phonograph records, newspaper articles, and the like, with long paragraphs of text, with lots of sentences fragments divided by commas, even longer than what's written in this blog entry, which by Internet standards are much longer than appropriate length of a paragraph for easy reading; so therefore expect not to let your eyes skim the words, but read with intent, read to find the deeper meanings.
Dracula is book to be deciphered in retrospect. The mysteries and motives of the Count are not revealed until the very end. Even then, if the reader paid close enough attention, he or she will discover how evil Dracula really is.
Today I shall finish preparing my lecture for my World History class, which unfortunately, we just don't have time to cover Dracula, too much time devoted to the High Middle Ages, Heresy, and Witchcraft. Vlad Tepes III shall have to come next week when I teach about the Fall of Constantinople and how he used impalement to frighten his enemies.
I don't think impalement was mentioned in the novel.
Happy Halloween,

29 November 2016
Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam, 29th November 2016—50 leaders and lecturers at Traditional Medicine (TM) schools and universities will help instil the next generation of TM practitioners with an attitude of zero-tolerance towards the consumption of threatened animals and plants in their TM practices following two workshops held recently in Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City.
Mr Trang Quang May, Deputy Director of T5G said, "The Ministry of Health has already removed many illegal or unsustainable products, such as rhino horn, from the TM Pharmacopeia. However, we are still trying to eliminate all illegal and threatened wildlife from the TM sector. The tools we are giving the workshop attendees will help us reach our goal of eradicating illegal wildlife in Vietnamese traditional medicine."
"With the harsher penalties of the new penal code, the TM community must be proactive and abolish the use of illegal wildlife products. TRAFFIC and T5G are holding this workshop to ensure that TM practitioners protect themselves from the risks associated with illegal wildlife trade by implementing socially responsible practices," said Madelon Willemsen, Head of Office for TRAFFIC in Viet Nam.
"The commitment from these universities to protect threatened wildlife is a crucial element of our strategy to reduce demand for illegal wildlife products, such as rhino horn. University lecturers and students as well as the wider TM community, will be able to use a communications package developed by TRAFFIC and T5G to integrate wildlife protection into their activities and offer alternatives to illegal wildlife products."
In 2014, TRAFFIC signed a memorandum of understanding with the Ministry of Health to combat illegal wildlife trade over a five-year period. T5G, which is a department of the Ministry of Health, began working with TRAFFIC in 2015 to help change the behaviour of traditional medicine practitioners and protect local and global biodiversity.
TRAFFIC is engaging different areas of Vietnamese society, such as the TM sector and business communities, to reject wildlife that is illegally traded. By shifting consumer behaviour away from threatened wildlife, TRAFFIC augments law enforcement efforts to stop illegal trade. This workshop is an element of TRAFFIC's two-tiered approach of reducing demand while raising barriers for consumption.

We moved off, as noisily as we approached the overlook. The pick up point was at the T-Junction, the other two teams would be bustling into the van as soon as it parked up. The moon was low on the horizon, clouds drifted past it and I casted my mind back to college. I used to write a lot, I wasn't very good at it, but I wrote. I'd look at scenes and think up of ways of describing them in words. The fulgent moon banished from its earthly bonds….
"Come on you fucking fuckhead. I'm gonna fucking spark you out, y'little shit," someone said flat panned in the darkness. I knew it was directed to me. The red rear lights of a van were stark in the jet of night. I moved over the wooden fence, clambered over a bush and untangled my Bergen from a barbed fence. I felt a pair of hands wrench me from the fenceline and I could hear a tear. In I was stuffed into the van like the victim of a kidnapping. The wind forced out of me by the force of a punch to my chest. The interior of the van was a like inside of an animal breathing. I felt legs and barrels of guns. Nothing more was said, but I felt the weight of pairs of eyes.
Back in Bessbrook we'd step out in to the lit park area of the Mill. It was 01:43hrs. Most of the guys would be asleep apart from the sangars and control room.
"We got egg banjos if any of you scruffy cunts want some?" A tall dark man in fatigues said. He was a chef on duty that evening.
We unloaded our weapons in the bays. The bays were breeze block built, filled with sand, lined with sandbags. An iron bar crossed over the centre, horizontally and you'd put the barrel of your weapon under this. And the mantra would go:
Point your weapon into the sand. Set your safety catch to 'S'. Change lever to 'R' (up position). Engage magazine release catch. Remove magazine. Tilt weapon to the right. Engage working parts to the rear. Check inside front, rear and soon to be into the space where the magazine was. The section commander would pass by, touch your shoulder if he was happy. Then you'd press the button to the left side of the rifle – the working parts would go forward with a clatter and you'd flick the safety to 'F' (right finger engaging the forward button in) and squeeze the trigger.
When our guns were unloaded we headed off to the cookhouse. We dropped our bergens off outside and sauntered in to the harsh light of the kitchen. You could hear the eggs being fried and bags of bread being ripped open in earnest. Some of the lads wouldn't take it lightly if the food wasn't ready when we tipped up.
"Fuckin' 'ell! Egg fucking banjos. Fuckin' banjos. My fuckin' favourite," muttered Bunjees. He was from another team and would punch you in the chest, as a way of greeting you – no malice in it, but it hurt all the same.
Egg Banjos. Now, where the fuck did they get that name from? You just couldn't make it up? An egg banjo was basically a fried egg sandwich. If the chef did the egg right, then you'd tip the sarnie up to eat and within one bite, the yolk would burst asunder and be dripping down your combat jacket. So the theory is, you wipe away the yoke with your free hand and it looks like you're playing the banjo.
On another note, I remember having a double take on a female chef. She looked familiar. I asked where she was from and it turned out she went to the same primary school as me back in the early 80s. Talk about a small world.

Collection of hygiene, cleaning kits continues
Volunteers needed in Florida, Texas
Financial donations to UMCOR requested
ALCOA, Tenn. (Oct. 12, 2017) -- Holston Conference is responding to the post-hurricane crisis in Puerto Rico by collecting school supplies for the children.
While most of Puerto Rico remains without power, many students from the island will be sent to the U.S. mainland to continue their school year, according to NPR and other reports. A large number of students are expected to arrive in central Florida.
The Florida Annual Conference has accepted the offer from Holston Conference to provide "School Kits" for the displaced children through UMCOR, according to Jim Fetzer, Holston disaster response coordinator.
The list of contents to assemble each School Kit is provided on the UMCOR website, along with instructions for Cleaning Kits and Hygiene Kits.
"We have added School Kits to the Cleaning Kits and Hygiene Kits that we are asking the people and churches of Holston Conference to provide in support of the large number of disaster survivors," Fetzer said.
Holston Conference has already delivered two large shipments of hygiene and cleaning supplies to UMCOR's Sager Brown Depot in Louisiana. The most recent load, delivered Oct. 6, included 658 Cleaning Kits and 2,500 Hygiene Kits. UMCOR will distribute the kits according to need.
The Oct. 6 shipment of kits were collected and packed by church members throughout Holston Conference over the last few weeks. Students from Emory & Henry College and Blue Ridge Job Corps Center also packed kits Oct. 2 in Marion, Va., according to the Rev. Harry Howe.
Fetzer said that packing kits for Puerto Rico and other hurricane-ravaged regions is an ideal project for small groups throughout Holston.
"School Kits can be done involving your children and adult Sunday school classes, youth groups, life groups, and other church community groups," he said.
"As you package the School Kits and Hygiene Kits, please write the number of kits on the box or other container to assist us," said Fetzer.
On its web page, UMCOR has requested processing and shipping costs of $1 for each School Kit. Instead of placing the money in an envelope inside the boxes, Fetzer asked church members to send shipping costs to the Holston Conference office. (Mail to: Rev. Mike Sluder, Connectional Ministries, P.O. Box 850, Alcoa, TN 37701.)
Completed kits should be delivered to district offices. Contact your district office for hours and other details.
Florida -- The Florida Conference is now ready for volunteers to work in areas damaged by Hurricanes Irma, Hermine, and Matthew, according to an Oct. 5 memo. Training in Early Response Team (ERT) basics will be required for some volunteer work.
"Trained ERTs will be placed in Irma relief and those who are not trained will be serving with recovery for Hermine and Matthew," said Gray Miller, associate director of UMVIM for the Southeastern Jurisdiction. Find out more.
Texas -- On Sept. 27, the Texas Conference issued an urgent plea for volunteers after Hurricane Harvey.
"We need help immediately," said Scott Moore, response coordinator. "The scale of this and the resources we need are going to take years to repair. Volunteers are tired and homeowners are frustrated," Moore said. Find out more.
Holston -- Holston Conference will soon dispatch a team of trained volunteers to clean up after storms in the South Georgia Conference, Fetzer said.
He encouraged newcomers to seek training to participate on future teams. "We are always looking for persons interested to be trained ERT members," he said.
In September, Holston's Disaster Response Team provided ERT training to 28 new volunteers. For information about future classes, contact Fetzer at email@example.com.
To support UMCOR with money, (1) donors may give online.
(2) Donors may also write checks to their local churches with "UMCOR Advance #901670" on the memo line.
(3) Donors may write checks made to "UMCOR" with "US Disaster Response #901670" and mail to: Advance GCFA, P.O. Box 9068, New York, NY 10087-9068.

he did not wear a condom, and it was one of my fertile days, and i took the take action pill 7 hours later, and i'm experiencing pregnancy symptoms, also i don't think he came inside me

no, i am just on the pill but i am inconsistent
Inconsistency leads to pregnancy. Your sexual partner doesn't have to "come" inside you to pass along sperm to you and you seem to know that. You absolutely must take your pills everyday and at the same time each day to have confidence that you are safe. Because you are worried and anxious about possibly being pregnant right now, you may think you see signs of pregnancy, but they may not really be very strong signs at all. Sometimes worry makes them seem stronger than they are. Can this be possible for you?
Many women don't get signs of pregnancy for weeks after they conceive. They only learn they are pregnant after missing a period or by testing for pregnancy. How long has it been since your last period and how regular are they? When did your sexual encounter occur where you didn't use a condom? These answers will help me help you.
I had sex on Dec. 11, and my periods are usually regular.
And when did your last period start and when do you expect the next to begin?
I'm asking about when you expect your next period because women can vary a lot in how many days apart their periods are.
my last period started dec. 1, i expect my next one dec. 28
You're due in a few days, which is good. Not too long to wait. Most women wouldn't have any symptoms of being pregnant right now. It can take a few days to get pregnant from the day you had sex. I'm not current on your most likely fertile days, but each woman can vary anyway. That's why women trying to get pregnant take their temperatures every morning and do some other observations. So IF you were pregnant, it could be only 8-11 days. VERY unlikely to give you symptoms.
I'll be hoping and praying you're not pregnant. It helps if your partner didn't ejaculate within you because that greatly reduces the number of sperm and their location isn't forced right to your cervix. I think you know some of this. I hope you'll start feeling some of your usual premenstrual symptoms. Stay in touch with me if you want to and I will be available to you.
Take your worry you're feeling now and pour it into praying to God to help you out of this mess you're in if you're willing to do that. Then put that worry into following the instructions for taking your BC pills exactly as the instructions tell you from now on. I was pregnant at 17 years and I can tell you about that should you be interested. I've been where you are is all I'm saying. Hang in there, it isn't the end of the world for you.
Thank you so much! I do know the consequences of what happened. The guy is my ex-boyfriend, who does have a girlfriend. I know, what I did was wrong. I will keep you updated, and i usually feel premenstrual symptoms, but i have not felt any. I do expect to get my next period, next Monday.
I'm curious. Why would you want to have sex with an ex-boyfriend when he has a girlfriend? Especially when it puts you through the wringer as far as worrying about being pregnant? Would he even care if you got pregnant with his child?
If I'm being too nosy just don't answer me, I'll understand.
i was drunk, and he would not care, but i am fine now emotionally
That's a relief to hear; that you're fine now.
It sounds like alcohol is not your friend.

The Emmy winning "HTGAWM" star Viola Davis won for Best Supporting Actress for a TV Drama, and she reminded the Hollywood Foreign Press (the judges) that she also went to all of their events and took all the pictures the previous five times she was nominated too. Bloop.
But this time, it all paid off. Her role in Fences was unbeatable, so the Globes pretty much had to serve her up that trophy on a platter. Check out Vi's inspirational acceptance speech and backstage interview below:

Did Primordial Chefs Feed Our Giant Brains?
A Harvard primatologist thinks that the invention of barbecue occurred 1.9 million years ago, fueling the expansion of the early hominid brain.
Around 1.9 million years ago, something extraordinary happened to the chimp-like hominids called Homo erectus. Their brains began to enlarge, becoming double the size of those of chimpanzees. Several theories are beginning to coalesce about why this happened. One is that early people began to eat more and better meat around this time, which allowed more calories to be consumed faster. This led to a shrinking of gastrointestinal organs and an increase in brain size that essentially traded guts for gray matter.
Our big brains need this extra energy. Modern humans eat about the same number of calories as other primates that approximate their weight, but we suck up an average of 25 percent of our body's energy expenditure, compared with the 8 percent sucked up by apes. Human babies use 60 percent of their energy to feed their heads.
Anthropologists have assumed that H. erectus ate their burgers and steaks raw, since most early fire pits discovered so far date back about 500,000 years, with the oldest, in Israel, dating back 790,000 years. Charred stones and tools associated with human sites have been discovered that date back as much as 1.5 million years, but these might have been naturally occurring fires.
Now Harvard University's Richard Wrangham has provided some evidence that the very distant ancestors of America's top chefs indeed may have learned to cook their antelope and rabbit. Cooking makes both plants and meat softer and easier to chew, providing more calories with less effort. What's more, human teeth got smaller and duller at around this time, which is the opposite of what would have happened if people had had to rip and chew lots of raw meat.

Why the CLASS Act Initiative is needed to Repeal SB 48
SB48 was passed in January and affects all public and charter schools. It "uses all social science curriculum, including history books and other instructional materials, to teach children as young as five not only to accept but also to endorse transgenderism, bisexuality, and homosexuality."
This opposition to this bill failed to get enough signatures to make it on the ballot in the last election, so this is Round 2.
The new proposed legislation would be known as the CLASS ACT. It repeals the bad law and mandates an accurate teaching of history, requiring legislators to stay out of curriculum development.
In other states, where this kind of curriculum has been mandated, parents were told their children would be truant if they were pulled from the classes. One father went to jail for his insistence on his right to oppose these lessons. (Massachusettes)
How it became law
SB 48 made its way through the legislature and was signed into law by Governor Brown in July 2011. SB 48 mandates implementation of this bill on January 1, 2012.
What it does
SB 48 uses all social science curriculum, including history books and other instructional materials, to teach children as young as five not only to accept but also to endorse transgenderism, bisexuality, and homosexuality. SB 48 has been misrepresented to the public and passed as a bill aimed to end bullying. SB 48 went into effect January 2012. Under SB 48, public schools will begin supplementing current instruction with pro-transgender, bisexual and homosexual materials before textbooks are revised. If schools do not comply with this they are in violation of the law.
Fortunately, there is another way to get rid of this overreaching and inaccurate teaching of history. Sign the petition, pass the CLASS Act.
What you can do
Our public schools are academic institutions, not a place for politicians to force their radical agenda on children. SB 48 does absolutely nothing to reduce bullying, improve the state of our education system, ensure students graduate, or prepare them for global competitiveness. Instead it diverts precious classroom time and resources away from science, math, reading, and writing to promote the political agenda of a few.
Stop SB 48 supporters are rallying together to repeal this law through the initiative process. An Initiative called the CLASS (children learning accurate social science) Act has been filed. This initiative demands the accurate teaching of history. With this initiative in place no person will be left out because of his or her sexual preference, but rather their contribution to history will be the focus not their sexual preference. We must gather 700,000 signatures to qualify this initiative for the ballot. You can get involved by signing the petition, receiving our email updates, donating to Stop SB 48, volunteering, following us on Facebook and letting your family and friends know about Stop SB 48 and the CLASS Act.

Hi everyone....has anyone here discussed the possibility of Chronic Fatigue Syndrom or Fibromyalgia with their docs or neuros?
I just entered the phrase "chronic fatigue syndrome and muscle twitching" into my web browser and came up with lots of good sites to read.
Each site I visited listed a vast majority of our symptoms....with visible muscle twitching being a very prominent symptoms of both disorders (which some experts choose to group into one).
I am following up with my neuro next Wednesday (for some reassurance about past testing and new symptoms)....and I'm going to discuss this with her. I'm also going to talk to my GP about it.
I don't want to re-list everything I read about....but heck, it sounds so much like we could all lump ourselves right into any CFS/FMS discussion. I'd say I have had a MINIMUM of 90% of the symptoms listed on these sites over the past 8 months.
It's just VERY refreshing to search on the web and so easily align myself with anything other than sites that talk about ALS.
I'm curious to know who here has discussed these conditions with their doctors. If you haven't read about this stuff already, I highly recommend doing the search I listed above.
Have a good day all!

Fossil fuels are a temporary energy source, based on accumulations of millions of years of solar based photosynthesis. We are using up these energy reserves in hundreds of years, 10,000 times faster than were originally produced. We are now well into the end of the Age of Oil, the energy source of choice for Western civilization.
It's just a coincidence that we are also discovering that our energy choices are influencing naturally occurring climate variation in ways that make our global environment less well suited to the patterns of development of Western Civilization. We are producing wastes, in this case carbon dioxide and other gases, faster than they can be assimilated in the biosphere through natural cycles.
This deadly, to humans, combination of borrowing energy from the past and limiting human energy choices in the future, in resulting in the unavoidable demise of our way of life, Western civilization. In order to significantly change the outcome we face, we would have to stop all greenhouse gas production, stop all burning of fossil fuels and reduce human population by a third. Even then, atmospheric and terrestrial processes already set in motion will continue on their present path.
As a result of our dominant social, political and economic systems, our governments do not have the will to change our way of being by taking the steps necessary to make a significant difference in the outcome. Like it or not, the future will have less energy availability, less food, less money and more and more strife and chaos.
The good news is that after human population and industrial activity decline, things will be better, for the remaining humans and the rest of the living world. Fortunately for all, there will be insufficient energy for our descendants to rebuild the same society we see crumbling about us today. Our ancestors will be forced to live within their means, unlike us, and will return to life as a part of Nature, not apart from Nature.
It's hard and it's fair.

Michael Fassbender grew so fond of the lighthouse that features in his new film The Light Between Oceans, he lived there for much of the movie.
The X-Men star wasn't initially impressed with director Derek Cianfrance's plans to use the movie location as a sleepover, but came to love the remote Marlborough, New Zealand landmark.
Filmmaker Cianfrance tells WENN, "We found a lighthouse that was appropriate for the story, but it was on this peninsula and it was an hour and 20 minutes on a dirt road to get there. I was asking these guys, 'Do we really want to drive on a dirt road in the dark for an hour and a half two times a day? No.' So we just lived there. It was a gift.
"Michael said, 'We'll give it one night, right? Maybe two'. And then it was like, 'OK, let's do one more night' and then pretty soon it was like, 'Do we have to leave?'"

For economic growth and prosperity, the need is to produce professional engineers by imparting quality education to the students. Guided and graded classroom instructions, interactive tu torial sessions, hands-on laboratory experience, and interaction with successful entrepreneurs and visiting faculty will help the students to develop self-confidence to face the future and turn the problems into opportunities. This is the primary objective at ACE besides granting a degree. The vision is for educating a 'complete person' for a life of service and leadership by focusing on a value-oriented curriculum, dedicated to educating students for competence, conscience, and compassion. When Ambala College of Engineering and Applied Research (ACE) was started, it was often said that applied research was not possible at B.Tech level, especially in the new institutes. However, the vision of the founders was very clear that this is the need of the hour. Unless a change in the direction of engineering education was brought about, the quality of engineers in the country will not improve
To achieve the above goals it was necessary to establish a transparent system. This was accomplished by, among other things, surrendering 100% of the management quota seats to the University for admission by merit only. A good academic environment was also created and the faculty was encouraged to stay on-campus.

Shop New Subaru Crosstrek Inventory in Sellersville to Pick Your Perfect Crossover Partner
The subcompact crossover SUV has made a big surge in the Sellersville area, and the new Subaru Crosstrek is leading the charge. Its size makes it equally ideal for young adventurers and small families alike, and its impressive fuel efficiency means that you can cruise around town without guzzling gas, and travel longer on the highway without having to stop as often to fill up.
And while other small crossovers can offer versatile space and good fuel economy, none of them can do it quite like a Subaru.

Lahore's weather is in a phase of transition. Winter seems to be metamorphosising into a rainy, muddy weather. Till few days back, most mornings were greeted by heavy fog blanketing the entire cityscape. After three days' shower the weather is no more unusually cold and the thinly veiled mornings are certainly exciting.
The weather may be changing but one thing remains constant all year round — Lahore's traffic. Well, it shows no sign of slowing down except in case of a jam. The sheer number of cars, bikes and all other sorts of vehicles crowd the bustling city lanes.
In the interior city where encroachments and street vendors are a permanent feature, heavy traffic compounds the problem and this too is a constant. The mismanagement of space causes chaos where rickshaws and animal-pulled carts only add to the problem.
Sarah Mushir Naqvi, an architect, urbanist and city planner, has mentioned in her paper on Transport Planning in Lahore, "Motorisation needs regulation in order to lessen traffic jams."
According to her, excessive motorisation is an important issue. To label one thing as a 'problem' would be unjust since there are several vehicles other than motors that impede movement.
One major hazard is presented by animal push-carts. Donkey carts running amidst the motor vehicles is a common sight, especially in the interior city. Whether it is Mall Road, Mozang or Ferozepur Road, the carts are found everywhere. They are a sustainable source of income for labourers who use them as carriers. In Bashir's words, a donkey cart owner, "It is laborious to handle an animal but it has its benefits." He further says, "Feeding a donkey is much easier than the motor vehicles which use up petrol at a phenomenal rate."
The problem does not arise from the presence of such carts as long as they move along one side of the road. Instead, they are mostly cruising through the speedy lanes and thus block passages or create general disruption. For someone who is not familiar with Montgomery Road and innumerable mechanics there willing to wonderfully transform every dent and scratch on your car and fix loosely hanging side view mirrors.
Little did I know that I would get to know so much about car repair. A donkey cart owner who recently broke the side view mirror of my car while trying to push through the static traffic at a signal graciously informed me of the whereabouts of the 'best' mechanics in the city.
Luckily, the mirror was not entirely broken and the car slightly scratched. I noticed that the cart was overloaded with wooden frames and therefore, the animal was unable to maintain a steady footing. It was not the animal but the frames which collided with the car as the rider tried to cut across traffic.
According to Chief Traffic Officer Lahore Ahmed Mubin Zaidi, "During winter traffic becomes hazardous generally due to fog and rain that makes roads slippery. However, the cure lies in caution. The increasing fog density creates many challenges for the city's traffic." He says, "Interior city is where the animal pull carts are a major cause of accidents in such condition as they have no indicators to show their presence, neither are animals always controllable."
He reveals that two separate NGOs would be working with the department in order to create awareness for the cart owners. "It will be mandatory for them to use blinkers and florescent stickers to make their presence visible."
On the diversions due to work on Orange Train, he said, "Now the public is used to them and as soon as the project completes traffic management would become a lot smoother."
Lahore's traffic has certainly come under control to some extent due to the presence of traffic wardens and working traffic signals. However, more congested areas like Garhi Shahu, Saddar and several other still face exhausting traffic levels every day. Adding to the pressure are the animal carts whose riders often forget to move on the extreme left lane. They block a major chunk of traffic in the inner city. Which makes me wonder if Lahore would have to make do with its existing routine?

As some here at Breitbart News predicted, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) won the Iowa caucuses because of hard work and superior organization.
But Cruz also damaged himself in the process, with attacks on "New York values" and explicit appeals to religion. Donald Trump came up well short of his poll numbers despite record turnout, barely finishing ahead of Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), who leaves Iowa with the most room to grow as "establishment" rivals fade.
The importance of the result cannot be overstated. Had Trump won–as polls had predicted–the primary would have been all but over. Cruz's victory means that the Republican contest will drag on for weeks, and even months–which is good news for conservative media. It also means that however tough the primary race becomes, it is a debate the Republican electorate wants to have as it works out its internal policy debates and its emerging political identity.
The field will soon narrow considerably. There are only three tickets out of Iowa, and possibly a "standby" ticket for another candidate who manages to surge in New Hampshire–perhaps New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Like Rubio in Iowa, Christie enjoys the endorsement of the state's most important editorial page.
Until the Feb. 9 vote, the talk will focus on Cruz, Trump, and Rubio. Here is what each must to to build on–or improve upon–his Iowa finish.
Cruz: Reach out. Cruz targeted social conservatives to win, but the damage of "New York values" will be long-lasting, affecting his general election prospects and his appeal to urban and suburban Republicans well beyond the tri-state area who want to feel they are voting to be part of something bigger, not a conservative rump. Cruz is more than capable of relating to people who have different social values. The time to start doing so again is immediately.
Trump: Win. The basic argument for Trump's candidacy is that he alone can defeat Hillary Clinton. He was never expected to win Iowa until his surge in the polls over the past two weeks, but a loss is a loss, meaning he has yet to prove his political potential. To stop Cruz's momentum, he has to win New Hampshire; to stop Rubio's, he has to win South Carolina. Anything less than back-to-back victories in those states means failure. He has to find a way.
Rubio: Smile. Thus far, Rubio has skimped on retail, door-to-door campaigning. In speech and on debate stages, he has scowled through talking points on America a brighter future. His intensity suggests an underlying lack of self-confidence, perhaps dating back to his failure in the Gang of Eight. He should take his strong result in Iowa as a signal to relax–not to work less hard, but to relate more easily to voters who will now be giving him a fresh look.

allinhishead.co.uk Looks like a prime contender for SEO fail of the year...
I thought I'd put this page live to further take up space for any related searches. Who ran the SEO for this? It seems like a major mistake...

Stratford of course.
(note the security guard on the right – he never took his eyes off me – clearly been told to look out for psychogeographers)
I couldn't let my pre-Olympic skepticism allow me to ignore the fact that it is taking place right on my doorstep. I've been moaning about it for the last 6 years but now it's here felt an obligation to see what was going on.
I've watched the Stadium and Velodrome mushroom at the end of the Asda Car Park – and via the Asda Car Park is the best route into the Olympic Park if you want to avoid the crush at Stratford. Since I moved to the area I've walked along the Eastway noting the gradual change.
So I bought a ticket for the Women's Basketball.
At the end of Ruckholt Road there's a gate at Eton Manor with a new bridge leading over into the park. This bridge and cinder track to the basketball arena crushed what was left of the Eton Manor Boys Club – a 19th Century philanthropic enterprise for the boys of Hackney Wick.
|still from a video I shot in 2007 – watch the video here
Where there were a series of rugby pitches is now a coach park. Tucked away in the corner was a small blue hut serving as a box office – there was not a soul around. It seems people don't fancy entering the Olympics from Leyton.
|The wild flowers are the real stars of London 2012
|This reminded me of a scene from I Am Cuba
I'd rather the Lower Lea Valley had been left alone to be overgrown with budliea, Japanese Balsam and Giant Hogweed. However, the landscaped banks of wild flowers are beautiful, and paradoxically possibly more in tune with the 'natural' habitat.
I was telling my wife how I preferred it the way it was and she pointed out that hardly anybody came down here when it was a post-industrial wilderness. I tried to make the point that that was the beauty of it but I suppose psychogeographers are a fairly narrow demographic.
The River Lea running through the park though is haunted by the absence of Iain Sinclair and Andrew Kotting in their swan pedalo. The end of their odyssey from Hastings to Hackney was truncated by barriers prohibiting passage along the Olympic Waterways.
|I don't get the giant crayons poking out of the Lea
Two of Britain's great topographers pedaling past the stadium in a giant swan would have been the perfect opening ceremony.
Have a look at this clip from the Culture Show in 2005 with Bob Stanley wandering around the Lower Lea Valley as it was then.
Been meaning to do this walk for a while – heading south in a straight line from Leytonstone across Stratford and Abbey Marshes bound for the Plaistow Levels beside the river Thames.
"Local history is the cradle of true patriotism, and local patriotism is the best stimulant to efficiency and progress"
Fifty Years A Borough 1886-1936 – The Story of West Ham by Donald McDougall, 1936
"There seems to be no doubt that the name comes from the Saxon, indicating the Street by the ford, or Stratford".
"It is quite likely that the area was a centre of communal life of the (pre-Roman) period and that it saw Druid ceremonial at its best"
|The Greenway
East Ham and West Ham were simply known as Hamme at the time of Edward the Confessor.
Alfred the Great is said to be responsible for the creation of some of the watercourses around Stratford such as the Channelsea River which he created to drain water from the Danish ships moored in the River Lea.
|Channelsea River 2
Limehouse Cut
"These streams had for many years been deteriorating, silting up, and at times giving off very offensive smells."
|the marsh monster
"But before there were small clustered villages, and before the unassailable fortress stood sentinel on the bank of the river, what people lived in the forests and marshy lands? What did they do in the struggle to live?
The first great work of these unrecorded hands was to build a wall of earth all along the north bank of the river so tha a great belt of swampy land was made fertile and flourished into meadows and pastures."
The Story of Tower Hamlets, 1967
West Ham Abbey "stood on the banks of the Channelsea River, one of the waterways created by Alfred the Great, in a very low-lying area now almost entirely covered by factories, warehouse and gasometers."
Fifty Years a Borough
Yesterday evening I got a call from artist Bob and Roberta Smith asking if I fancied exploring the new Westfield Stratford City that had just opened that day down the road from Leytonstone. I quickly grabbed my minidisc recorder and a mic and off we went.
Bob then played out the entire disc live and unedited on his Resonance fm show, Make Your Own Damn Music. This is a sample of the broadcast.
Yesterday took a late afternoon wander down to Stratford under sludge grey skies
Turn off Cathall Road into Hollydown Way taking in the view across St. Patrick's Cemetery towards the cranes of Stratford. Iain Sinclair made this journey in reverse in Lights Out For the Territory describing St. Pat's as "that slumberland development with its forest of white statues". The eastern gates are padlocked as they were when Sinclair passed by, so I continue.
The Olympic development looms large now from Draper's Fields playing grounds, scene of midweek 5-a-side heroics
Wilson's Bar hanging on for dear life – the antithesis of the supposed Olympic dream of the developers
I still can't get my head around the idea that the Olympic Village is going to be down on Angel Lane Stratford. Will we find pole-vaulters popping over the road for a pint in the Railway Tavern.
From Cathall Road there is a near perfect view cleared by the M11 Link Road. At an height level with the steeple of St. John's you can scan across the speculative skyline from Canary Wharf to St. Mary Axe (it's an alignment that the London Psychogeographical Society could conjure something from: St John = Baphomet/Isis, pyramids, obelisks). Late afternoon full moon. Across the top of St. Pat's tombstones Lea Valley pylons against a red sunset. On Water Lane there's 'The Brothers Fish Bar est. 1966' chips and cheer wrapped in greasy paper, in my imagination opened to commemorate West Ham winning the World Cup. I wander into the porch of Ithaca House on Romford Road – The Working Men's Hall and Club Rooms 1865. A lady tells me that it's now all martial arts, body mind and spirit etc. She was unaware of its age or original purpose. Old Labour replaced by the New Age Brigade. In her work-out gear she views me with suspicion through the door, me a working man, son of a gardener, grandson of a miner. A quick google shows it to have been bought for £1 by the Independent Newham Users Forum.
Wind up in the gentrified King Eddie. My cheese and onion crisps arrive as Double Gloucester and Red Onion Kettle Chips. The saloon bar where we sat on the floor in 1989 has distressed wooden tables, floorboards, smoochy tunes and a Heston Blumenthal inspired menu.

While the mainstream American media posed the senseless question of whether Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney made a "gaffe" by praising Israeli culture on his overseas trip this week, the Hebrew-language Hadshot USA, "the Israeli newspaper in Los Angeles," suggests that Israelis saw the bigger picture: "Netanyahu Puts All the Chips on Romney," it declared.
Noting that Romney's positions match those of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the newspaper summarized their meeting in Jerusalem: "Netanyahu embraced Romney as no Israeli prime minister before had embraced an American presidential candidate running against a sitting president."
By declaring, in Jerusalem, that Jerusalem is Israel's capital, and by advocating a stronger approach to confronting Iran's nuclear ambitions, Romney earned Netanyahu's tacit endorsement for the presidency, the newspaper noted.
There was a risk to Netanyahu's close embrace of the American president's opponent, the paper observed: "If Obama so chooses, it might be painful. But perhaps there is nothing to lose"–i.e. relations between the two administrations could not possibly be worse in any case.
Noting the Obama administration's attempt to use Romney's comments on Jerusalem against him, the paper's coverage suggests that many Israelis–including Israeli-Americans voting in the upcoming election–have concluded that President Barack Obama is not a close ally after all.

Animation pricing is straightforward if you know the fundamentals. There are three drivers we'd like to you to be aware of.
First, animators typically price their services by the length of an animation. A 60 second animation is more expensive than a 30 second piece – though not necessarily twice as much.
Second, the level of detail the illustrations will fluctuate prices. Some animators will use characters from past projects or buy stock illustrations online. Other animators will create all the characters from scratch and this is much more expensive.
Learn the basics of animation production.

Field Notes from the Edge
'A profoundly satisfying read' Financial Times
In Field Notes from the Edge, the acclaimed writer of the Guardian's 'Country Diary', Paul Evans, takes us on a journey through the in-between spaces of Nature – such as strandlines, mudflats, cliff tops and caves – where one wilderness is on the verge of becoming another and all things are possible.
Here, Evans searches out wildlife and plants to reveal a Nature that is inspiring yet intimidating; miraculous yet mundane; part sacred space, part wasteland. It is here that we tread the edge between a fear of Nature's dangers and a love of Nature's beauty.
Combining a naturalist's eye for observation with a poet's ear for the lyrical, Field Notes from the Edge confirms Paul Evans's place among our leading nature writers today.
Best known as the author of the Guardian's Country Diary, Paul Evans is a naturalist, university lecturer, broadcaster of natural-history documentaries and award-winning dramas for Radio 4, and performance poet. He writes for publications including BBC Wildlife, Geographical, The National Trust Magazine and Country Living; and his work appears in many anthologies. He has had his poetry set to music by an American folk group and even been the subject of an MA at a Belgian university. He lives with his family in Much Wenlock, Shropshire where he was born.
