Published Document
Department of Defense (DoD).
Final rule.
The Director of Defense Procurement has issued a final rule amending the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) to revise a clause used in construction contracts. The revised clause explicitly allows the Government to furnish drawings and specifications to construction contractors in electronic form and requires construction contractors to reproduce and print contract drawings and specifications as needed.
August 17, 2000.Start Further Info
Ms. Amy Williams, Defense Acquisition Regulations Council, OUSD(AT&L)DP(DAR), IMD 3D139, 3062 Defense Pentagon, Washington, DC 20301-3062. Telephone (703) 602-0288; telefax (703) 602-0350. Please cite DFARS Case 99-D025.End Further Info End Preamble Start Supplemental Information
A. Background
DoD uses the clause at DFARS 252.236-7001, Contract Drawings, Maps, and Specifications, in fixed-price construction contracts. The clause previously stated that the Government will provide five sets (unless another quantity is specified) of large-scale drawings and specifications to the contractor without charge; or, at the Government's option, may furnish the contractor with one set of reproducibles, or half-size drawings. This rule revises the clause to specify that the Government will provide one set of drawings and specifications to the contractor in electronic or paper media, as chosen by the contracting officer, and that the contractor will reproduce and print contract drawings and specifications as needed. In addition, the rule removes the term "maps" from the clause title, since the text of the clause does not contain this term.
DoD published a proposed rule at 65 FR 6574 on February 10, 2000. Three sources submitted comments on the proposed rule. DoD considered all comments in the development of the final rule.
This rule was not subject to Office of Management and Budget review under Executive Order 12866, dated September 30, 1993.
B. Regulatory Flexibility Act
DoD certifies that this final rule will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601, et seq., because reproducing and printing contract drawings and specifications normally does not constitute a significant expense, and the contractor can pass this expense along to the Government as part of the contract price.
C. Paperwork Reduction Act
The Paperwork Reduction Act does not apply because the rule does not impose any information collection requirements that require the approval of the Office of Management and Budget under 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.Start List of Subjects

(e) The work shall conform to the specifications and the contract drawings identified on the following index of drawings:

I've been out of college nearly two years, but tomorrow I return to school. Sunday School. Tomorrow marks the start of my fourth year teaching the 5th grade class at Saint George Orthodox Cathedral. When I transferred to a college close to home four years ago, I became the advisor for the youth group at church. Somehow, I was roped into teaching church school as well. Since that time, I've come to find teaching an incredibly rewarding experience, especially given that I'm able to set my own curriculum each year.
When I was in church school, everything revolved around the Bible and little was taught about the history of Christianity, more specifically the history of Orthodoxy. So, when the opportunity was extended to teach what I'd like, I set a curriculum based on the development of the Orthodox Church and the Church's interactions with general secular history.
Here's how I see it. Why should you be expected to believe something without knowing the back-story? The greatest movies draw us in with solid expositions, letting us know why we should root for the hero and against the villain. The Bible is, of course, the resource for Christianity but there's more to being Christian than knowing the Bible. When we identify ourselves as Orthodox, Catholic, Presbyterian or whatever, we should know what that means (though I believe Christians should see themselves simply as Christians overall). By teaching the history of the Church, kids gain a better understanding of why they're taught to say certain prayers, why church services are structured a certain way or performed in a certain language. Anyway...
Here's what the kids will be learning this year. Four years in, I think I've nearly perfected it.
Illegality of Christianity
Edict of Milan
First Council of Nicea
-the Nicene Creed
First Council of Constantinople
Council(s) of Ephesus

Although this is an excerpt, I am truly proud of having been able to capture this moment. Gary, being paralyzed and unable to walk, was working on visualizing himself walking. I simply filmed various moments of this hour or so process. I would grab shots of his face, various angles of his legs, and then, filmed and filmed the close-up of his feet. The structure and passiveness of the scene may make it feel like it is scripted. I assure you it is not. It is edited in the nature of mediation and patience.
The following is a miraculous moment captured while filming the story TIGER.

Power Rankings Who Is The Player Of The 2017 NCAA Tournament?
List Rules Vote up the college basketball players who have proven themselves indispensable throughout March Madness.
With March Madness underway, the best college basketball players from the top schools in the nation put it all on the court for the 2017 NCAA Division I Championship. These young players must overcome pressure, fatigue, and other talented ballers to reach the Final Four. However, only the best players can take their team to the championship. Who is the best player in this year's March Madness?
According to many sports sites (and his father LaVar Ball), UCLA point guard Lonzo Ball is the must-watch player of March Madness 2017. At just 19, the Pac-12 Freshman of the Year was also a major factor in the Bruins winning the Wooden Legacy Tournament. Villanova small forward Josh Hart has his sights on back-to-back championships for the Wildcats, while Kansas point guard Frank Mason III led his Wildcats to the top of the SEC. Other NCAA basketball players to watch for include Duke's Luke Kennard, Kansas's Josh Jackson, and Arizona's Lauri Markkanen.

L'Oreal - The One Sweep Eye Shadow & MascaraIn this review I will be discussing the L'Oreal - The One Sweep Eye Shadow & Double Extend Eye Illuminator Mascara. The palette set that I got is 519 - Playful for Brown Eyes and Black Quartz for Brown Eyes Mascara. I tried both of the items and personally I like the pigmentation of the Eye Shadow, but I'm not too keen on the one sweep idea. The reason why I don't like the one sweep idea is because the applicator doesn't fit my eye shape that well. I have smaller eyes and that it's hard for me to achieve that complete look. But for those who are always on a hurry this is a great palette for you to try because of the one sweep method which is simple and fast. As for the Double Extend Eye Illuminator Mascara I do like the fact that it is clump-free, flake and smudge resistant. I really didn't see that it lengthens my eyelashes, but I do like the illuminating topcoat that is infused with light-reflecting pearls making my eyelashes sparkly.
Here are some pictures of me testing this product:

Maghull Labour Councillor Lynn Gatherer told a packed full Sefton Council meeting last Thursday that the Tory-Lib Dem Government was forcing the borough's councillors to build on some greenbelt land - or risk developers coming in and building where they like.
Sudell Ward Labour Councillor Lynn Gatherer was speaking during the debate on Sefton's Local Plan, which is now set to go to full public consultation.
Under the plan, which has been drawn up under the Lib Dem-Tory Government's strict Planning Policy Framework, Sefton will have to build up to 510 homes a year for the next 15 years - up to 150 homes a year are earmarked for Maghull.
Councillors and campaigners heard at the meeting that if Sefton fails to draw up a plan in line with Lib Dem-Tory Government policy - to allow building on greenbelt land - then the Lib Dem-Tory Government will open the door to developers to build where they like.
Speaking in the council chamber, Cllr Gatherer said: "Over the last 30 years we've built on average 470 homes every year in Sefton. The experts who have drawn up the various reports believe that we'll need around 510 new homes every year between now and the end of the 15 year Local Plan.
"According to the experts, this would mean building around 10,500 new houses - there are enough brownfield sites to build around half of these houses while the other half would be built on greenbelt land. There has been a great deal of discussion regarding the statistics used to determine housing need and councillors and residents have rightly challenged and questioned the facts and figures. The up to date full population and housing statistics will be published in 2014 and the council will update their housing requirement based on these figures which will cover the full plan period and we have the opportunity to amend the Local Plan timetable – so that the updated figures will be included prior to submission.
"It is possible that the 2014 numbers will show a drop – if they do then Sefton will build less homes than is currently planned in the document. However it's likely that even with a reduction in numbers, houses will still need to be built on greenbelt land."
Cllr Gatherer argued that if official government statistics, which are due for publication next year, show a smaller population increase, then fewer houses should be built in Maghull to ease potential strain on local infrastructure.
Cllr Gatherer said: "The greenbelt should be protected as much as possible and so if the 2014 figures reduce then I would ask that consideration be given to reducing the numbers being built on the greenbelt and in particular those areas like Maghull which are being disproportionately impacted.
"I'm in favour of building homes and I have no doubt that affordable homes are needed in Maghull. But the town will be receiving 24% of the houses in the plan while it has only a 12% housing need – that would appear to be disproportionate.
"We could see the population of Maghull rise by 20% and I have concerns as to whether the infrastructure will be improved sufficiently to cope with that increase.
"There would be added pressure on local schools GPs, dental surgeries and roads from the main site to the local schools which are narrow, particularly where they pass over the railway line and canal. Residents already express concern regularly about the volume of traffic on the roads the danger to pedestrians who have to walk along the narrow footpaths in the area and there are also worries about flooding."
During her speech, Cllr Gatherer made reference to Lib Dem-Tory planning ministers who are demanding that local authorities like Sefton release greenbelt land for development. Government Minister Nick Boles outraged members of the Campaign for the Protection of Rural England just last week when he said councils must allow developers to build on greenbelt.
Cllr Gatherer said: "So yes I have concerns as no doubt do other colleagues about the impact the Local Plan will have on their wards. But under the Tory-Lib Dem coalition government's Planning Framework, with its presumption in favour of sustainable development making it easier for developers to build, we have to have a 'sound' local plan in place and if we don't the Tory-Lib Dem planning laws allow developers the opportunity to build wherever they like.
"We've seen in the press recently Lib Dem-Tory government ministers admitting that there aren't enough brownfield sites for all the of the houses that need to be built and that planning inspectors are forcing local councils to accept more housing on greenbelt land.
"So against that backdrop it's very difficult to protect the greenbelt.
"Nevertheless as councillors we have robustly questioned and challenged at every available opportunity the figures, the selection of the proposed sites and the impact building will have. We need to build more houses, we need to make sure as many as possible are affordable, it's important for Sefton's economy that we ensure that jobs which result from this plan are for local workers, we need to make sure the right infrastructure is provided, we need to do all we can to make the plan as proportionate as possible.
"And we need to protect the greenbelt as far as we can - the best way to do that is to have a sound local plan in place."
Cllr Gatherer is now urging all Maghull residents to take part in the public consultation on the Local Plan which starts next week. Details can be found at tinyurl.com/SeftonLocalPlan

Welcome to the new site
First blog post from the new website, hosted by Zenfolio...I migrated over after multiple years with Photoshelter primarily because Photoshelter's UI was confusing and difficult to use for many of my customers. So far I'm highly pleased with Zenfolio and the clients who worked with me during the transition all report that they find the new site much easier to use.
Several key things about Zenfolio that I found during the site build process:
The latter is a huge relief - I spent a lot of time with Wordpress configuring my old site, including learning way more about CSS than I wanted to or had time for. The primary downside of customization was that I really didn't ever want to touch it again and so my site got stale. With the new site I'm looking forward to being able to keep content flowing and the site fresh on a regular basis.
Here's a quick outtake courtesy of my assistant Lisa - me working with the Bride and Groom and the last wedding of the season.
Looking forward to a more regular cadence of posts in the new year...perhaps even including some New Year's resolutions.
Cheers and Happy Holidays,

Harder sees the scenario as a product of home cooking and an example of poor sportsmanship and selfishness.
By virtue of being seeded number one, Southeast should be home for the Class 5A-District 12 title game assuming it wins its semifinal match, he says.
The problem Harder says is that four of the six teams in the district are from Pinellas County and they took care of their own, not considering Southeast and Bayshore.The one good thing about getting the first seed if Southeast reaches the final it will likely have to beat the winner of the St. Petersburg Lakewood-Gulfport Boca Ciega game rather than have to face each other.
Realistically these are the only three teams with a chance to win the district championship. Southeast beat Lakewood at home and lost in overtime on the road at Boca Ciega on a controversial call at the end. They all finished 4-1 in the district and Southeast got the top seed because it had the best overall record (21-4).
Southeast has exceeded expectations because its core group of three sophomores is playing like seniors. It is sparked by forward Deangela Mathis, who leads the Seminoles in scoring (19.1 ppg), is second in rebounding (5.2 RPG) and shooting 59 percent from the field.
Keshawna Robinson continues to be a force on the boards. The 5-10 sophomore tops the Noles on the boards (10.4 rpg) and is third in scoring (11 ppg).A big plus and somewhat of a surprise with her scoring has been 5-6 guard Bevin Mays, a defensive ace who is averaging 13.3 points and leads Southeast with 79 assists.
Lakewood, the defending 4A state champion, is expected to be without its top player, six-foot junior Tianah Alvarado, who is out with a knee injury. She averaged 30 points per game last year and was selected 4A state tournament MVP.

Dreams can be head scratchers. What does it mean when the family cat becomes a panther? When all our teeth fall out? (Should we prepare for a sea change or simply call the dentist?) We know our nightly reveries are packed with personal messages, and we vow to make more time to decode them. For inspiration, we're asking movers and shakers we admire to tell us about standout dreams that imparted wisdom and spurred them to act in their waking lives.
First up is Shannon Mulkey, cofounder of Atlanta's Indie Craft Experience. She teaches art classes and leads the Teen Team at the High Museum in addition to planning several ICE events each year, so life can be hectic. She has recurring dreams that "indicate I am on the edge of running myself down and getting overwhelmed," she says. When her nighttime visions exaggerate her daytime stress, she knows it's time to slow down and pay attention to what's really important. For the 41-year-old entrepreneur, that's "spending time with friends and family, breathing fresh air, and drinking tea."
Sometimes her dreams are as literal as instruction manuals, which she can follow to boost her business. "One time I created a pattern for a knit hat and proceeded to make it in the dream," she says. "I woke up the next morning and created the hat step by step. I went on to make and sell more than 200 of those hats over the years."
What's next for this crafty lady? "I recently had a dream about an art installation that I hope to create in my waking life," she says. We can't wait to watch that vision slide out of the unconscious and into reality.
What have you dreamed up that's made a difference in your waking life? Share with us at #loblollydreamjournal.

With the election results now final and no party in a majority position, the political parties are bracing for serious talks.
There are three main considerations in these negotiations. The first is policy compatibility. The second is personal compatibility among the leaders. And the third consideration is the configuration of the legislature.
While the NDP and the Greens may have more policy overlap, with only 44 seats between them they would only have a razor-thin majority and would be right back to minority status if the speaker is drawn from their ranks.
The legislative configuration works somewhat better for a Liberal-Green alliance. It's difficult for an outsider to assess the potential working relationships among the leaders.
But while everyone is wondering if the Greens will prop-up the Liberals or the NDP and what promises those parties might make to obtain their support, there is another option: an alliance between the Liberals and the NDP.
These two parties have viewed each other as mortal enemies for a quarter-century now — and three-quarters of a century if you include the rivalry between the Social Credit and the CCF. But the present configuration of the legislature might require them to put aside their rivalry for the benefit of the province.
The situation in Germany after the 2013 election is perhaps instructive. After that election Angela Merkel's Christian Democratic Party (a conservative party) won the most seats, but just shy of a majority. The CDP's previous coalition partner failed to get anyone elected, so Merkel required a new coalition partner.
Merkel could have turned to the Greens, but she opted instead to pursue a "Grand Coalition" with the Social Democratic Party — the CDP's mortal enemy for three-quarters of a century. The Grand Coalition has given Germany stable government for the past four years, and Merkel is widely regarded as the most effective leader in the world today.
What are the grounds for a Liberal-NDP alliance? The budget introduced in February — but not yet passed — included new spending for health, education, and family and children. The NDP surely supports this increased social spending.
The Liberals also promised in the budget to reduce MSP premiums by half immediately, with the goal of eliminating them entirely. The NDP promised the same thing in the election. Perhaps they could sit down together and figure out how to do it.
The NDP promised in the election to increase social assistance and disability payments by $100 a month and to restore the bus program for people with disabilities. The Liberals may now be willing to consider that in the next budget, especially since they were heavily criticized for not doing it already. Perhaps it could be financed by not rolling back the surtax on high-income earners, as the NDP proposed in its platform.
The NDP promised to eliminate bridge tolls, while the Liberals promised to cap them at $500 a year. That sounds like a compromise already — these two parties are certainly closer on that issue than either are with the Greens, who want to keep bridge tolls and introduce a comprehensive road-pricing scheme.
And further areas of agreement could always be fudged. The NDP called for a review of Site C. All right let's have a review. Ditto, rates for ICBC, hydro and ferries. Let's form a committee to study electoral reform. Party-finance reform could surely be enacted immediately.
The Liberals and the NDP probably don't have enough in common to govern together for four years like the CDP-SDP coalition in Germany, but they might be able to cobble together a plan to pass the current budget and one next spring before we go back to the polls again.
This option would buy the province some stability in a very uncertain time. It would probably be a much-more stable arrangement than the three-seat Greens giving either the Liberals or the NDP the thinnest of majorities. And it would be by far the most democratic — representing fully 80 per cent of the electorate.
Christy Clark and John Horgan would surely be loath to work with each other, but in this circumstance they have to put their personal animosity aside for the good of the province. This may not be the best option for the province, but it's an option that should be explored along with the other possibilities.

|Mmm, I must say I really love this weather. Its hot and the sky is clear. Now if it would just rain so I wouldnt have to stay at work long.
I havent updated in awhile...like always. I have 3 more days left of high school. School was the worst part of my life so that means things can only get better. This summer should be wonderful and college will be different and exciting. Im so excited...a little scared but not sad about leaving.
Today I woke up and spent time with Jay and Allen. We went to the park and the mall. They are my only friends who are still the same. Its cool.
Came home...tried talking to my parents but they didnt give me the time of day. Its like they dont care about me anymroe and they just say whatever will get me out of their hair. They stress over this damn house and say its for me but in reality Im leaving so it isnt very much for me. They hurt my feelings a lot. They harp on me and tell me to do things but they dont take one minute out of their lives to talk to me. Not about anything. I feel like I live alone without bills. Oh well...if thats how they want us to be for the rest of their lives than thats their choice. Im not going to let them bring me down.
Well I have to work in a half hour for about 7 busy hours so Im leaving.

slow living // fast wi-fi
In the age of mobile offices and digital nomads, it has become more acceptable to take your work away from a traditional office scenario and discover more relaxing places to work.
Read on for our guide of spots where you can ditch the desk, but still maintain productivity.
Need somewhere to work without any distractions, in clean, bright and minimal surroundings? Based on the Airbnb model, Breather is being rolled out in a select few American and Canadian cities with the aim of providing people with an alternate working space.
Search by city to discover a variety of spaces available within close proximity that you can rent for a half hour break from the office, or a full days productivity. Once you have reserved a space, you will be given a pin code with which to open the door during the duration of your stay.
All spaces are provided with wi-fi, pens and notebooks, and you can even register to sign up your own space for other Breather users to frequent.
Based on a popular Russian model, Ziferblat is a social space where you can work, study or relax and pay only for the time that you spend there. All food, drink and wi-fi is free, with fruit-infused water, juices, tea and coffee, cakes, snacks and breakfast foods available for consumption – and all that you pay is 6p per minute.
There is currently a Ziferblat in London, Manchester and Liverpool, as well as several branches across Europe, providing the perfect space to work away from a traditional office set up.
If you are based in London, our favourite secret spot for remote working in a creative environment has to be Timberyard. It can sometimes feel uncomfortable working from a café, feeling the pressure from the staff to finish your brew and leave as the conveyor belt of customers continues.
The atmosphere at Timberyard is a breath of fresh air, providing a space for creative people to work for as long as they like, even allowing pre-booking to ensure that you get a seat at your chosen time. The perfect place to head to when you need to get out of the office for a few hours, here's hoping that this concept gets picked up in more cities.
Central Working
Co-working hubs are springing up across all major cities, offering desk spaces for individuals (usually within the creative or tech industries, or business start-ups) to work in communal environments. With locations in both Manchester and London, the spacious premises of Central Working are suitable for both drop-ins who want a desk for a few hours and permanent desk spaces for start-up businesses.
Featuring traditional desks, comfortable sofas and private nooks, the focus is on making you feel relaxed whilst you work.

Yes, boys and girls, its Will Run For Miles' favorite sale – the Patagonia 50% off sale.
The sale began at midnight, and continues until July 31, 2012. Shipping is free with $75 order. Patagonia allows you to return items to the store, so I tend to overbuy online during the sale and return what I don't like. Clothing goes quickly, so shop soon.
And….. of course, before I checked out (I purchased 13 items for $306), I checked Chase.com to see if Patagonia was listed as an Ultimate Rewards merchant. YES!! 4 Ultimate Rewards points per dollar – Thank you Chase Sapphire Preferred Visa! (note: the Ultimate Rewards website says that you need to use a browser other than an Apple Safari browser for a purchase at Patagonia to be tracked = so use firefox, chrome, etc.).
If you have never shopped Patagonia, it is not all trail and camping gear and clothing – they have lots of wonderful running styles and lots of casual fun clothing. The baby and kiddie clothes are adorable too. For me, I like their running clothing and their dresses. I seem to have a closet full of them.
So, its 7:30 am – I haven't had coffee yet, but I've spent $306 dollars, ordered some GREAT clothing at Patagonia, and earned approximately 1200 Ultimate Rewards points!
Its going to be a good day!

ColdFusion comes with a command-line utility called CFEncode you can use to obfuscate the source code in your CFML templates so that it can't be easily viewed. The obfuscation process is designed to be one-way, so you should make sure you have a backup copy of any templates you wish to encode before proceeding. You should also be aware that the mechanism used to encode tags is relatively weak and has been broken in the past. For this reason, you shouldn't rely on the encoding mechanism as the sole means for protecting your source code.
To run the CFEncode utility (located in \cfusion\bin by default), simply execute it using the following syntax:

Being overwhelmed
We are inundated by the strong opinions of older generations on how the extent to which technology in engrained in our lives. It's difficult for those not raised on Facebook/Twitter/Instagram/Snapchat to understand how we consume media to the point where if we are unable to get in touch with people it can feel like there is something physically wrong with us. Millennials get a lot of crap for behaving a way that they do, but part of that frustration might be misplaced. Is it fair to judge a whole generation based on the fact that more is available to for young people than there has ever been before? I challenge older generations to consider how they would have acted had all this been available because I think that would open up a lot of questions about the way people relate to each other. Maybe some of the social problems stem from the fact that human nature hasn't really changed; it's just manifesting itself in new ways not seen before. It's not like until the emergence of the Facebook iPhone app people didn't feel anxiety, stress, jealousy, loneliness, or the desire to know what their friends or significant others were up to. Now there are just different and more in depth ways of dealing with these emotions.
Xanther falls above average on the frailty/sensitivity scale, but she is still a child raised on technology who is used to being available 24/7 and connected to everyone you want to at any time of day. People that fall into the Millennial age bracket think less of the technologies available today because we have been raised on them. I don't think I'd be too far off in saying I don't think Xanther would directly cite social media or texting her friends as a cause for her to become agitated. Changes in media aren't as big of a deal to us because we're used to the market for this changing rapidly. We didn't have meltdowns about the switch from buttons to touchscreens. We transitioned relatively smoothly from T9 word to Autocorrect. And we certainly don't do this.
What I wanted to do in this post is relate the way young people relate to technology to the way Xanther behaved at the party at Anwar's office. A claim that gets made pretty frequently is that the ubiquity of social media and technology in our lives is the root of a lot of anxiety and feelings of being overwhelmed. However I think that people are capable of these feelings without any outside factors. A lot of things can be overwhelming. Xanther is overwhelmed by there being a lot of people and conversations in the office, so she goes to the bathroom to calm down. She becomes overwhelmed by her own thoughts so she turns to social media, Parcel Thoughts, to calm down. She becomes overwhelmed by the images she sees there, so she returns to where the cause of her almost-episode began – the party. My point is that face-to-face human interaction is seen as the pinnacle of communication styles for non-Millennials, but really anything can cause stress or anxiety; it's all about differences in people and the personal coping style of the individual.
We all have stuff that occupies our minds that we have to deal with in order to be functioning human beings. It is 100% true that some of this can be attributed to things we see online, but I don't think that the explosion of technology as a driving force in our lives is the sole cause of the anxiety of society as a whole but more of a reconfiguration of already existing feelings and thoughts. Shallow people have always existed; Instagram didn't create this type of people. Girlfriends and boyfriends have also had those jealous, suspicious feelings about their significant others; the ability to see someone's best friends on Snapchat didn't invent these feelings of doubt. I personally can get overwhelmed from anything. I don't discriminate. And I think to cite social media and technology as the cause of social problems would be small minded. I really appreciate the way Danielewski has integrated people's interactions with technology as a main theme of the novel because it starts rich discussions about the role technology should play which I think are necessary because I have a feeling the media isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Reblogged this on Discussion board for Mark Z. Danielewski's THE FAMILIAR, Volume 1 and commented:
I completely agree with you here. I think our generation gets so much flack for being so consumed with "the media" but people have always been consumed with media, it's just that the media has changed. I wouldn't say the relationship is completely void of bimodal distribution — I do think the access we have to each other affects our emotions. It's not just about how the media has changed but how it has changed and how much more of it there is. I also agree that Xanther's anxiety directly comes from these apps. It's not borne new for her specialty.
Really interesting point about how ultimately this novel can relate to the Millennials. Danielewski has something amazing here with this book and as far as I'm concerned, he's changed the scene of reading. It's about so much more now–the way something is mediated to you does in fact affect you. So, it's interesting you brought this up. Great post!
hfcaldw says :
As I mentioned in one of my posts; Danieleswki's books are never ending. Each time the book is read a new situation or assumption will flourish. It is definitely not text for anyone to read. In addition to, not only using a book to communicate with each other in class, we have the ability to communicate this book with other classes. Which makes it even more interesting and easy to pull MORE information out. What power is pulled from this book but also from the web!
xoebien says :
Hey, you have absolutely hit the nail on the head in your discussion about generational information and relationships to technology that this book brings up again and again.
You talk about how human emotions have existed long before the technologies and apparatuses have been able to express them. Still, it is interesting to see the manner in which humans are coming to deal with their intuitive emotions in light of the available outlets.
Honestly, I'm one of those people who says I hate technology, which is absolutely false and misdirected. I say it, however, to express that I get stressed out by the endless navigation of the internet and I worry about technologies' negative impact on society. It doesn't help that the sic-fi books from just decades ago imagined dystopian worlds that were not in fact made better by the inventions of technology, but were instead made worse (1984, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, Fahrenheit 451{Oh god let's not even talk about the possibility of burning books or I will cry} just to name a few).
I don't want technology to replace human connection, but I appreciate the ways in which it makes it even more accessible. I like that you said anything can cause stress or anxiety because it points to our generational phenomenal of being less adept at maneuvering social situations than scrolling through Facebook or tumblr, we can calm down our senses by having something to focus on that doesn't require our full attention, or at least we can attend several things at one time without being considered rude for not engaging with a group or avoiding polite pleasantries to people you don't even care to talk to.
Anyway, I think what I'm trying to get at is that Danielewski is showing us that we can have both- we can be both dependent on in person human connection and also means of technological escape where we get to control the websites we visit and the people we connect to. In fact, there may even be a way to utilize our digitized and multitasking era to pay tribute to the faculties of communication from the past – The Familiar is a physical book with pages made out of paper made out of trees, but when we open it up, we can see computers and microchips and timelines and Orbs that we are so accustomed to encountering on the world wide web.
In conclusion: Wonderful post, lheyman. Thank you for sharing.

I really enjoyed this post. It made me think about my attitude about the book. It also made me feel like I am about to be old, but I think I am somewhere in the middle of this issue.
I grew up in the 80's and 90's before the internet. I enjoyed movies, video games, and books, but they were always part of a 1-to-1 ratio. There was one book for one story, one video tape for a movie, and one cartridge for a game (excluding series and sequels I suppose). I am young enough to have easily assimilated new technologies as they become available, but I guess old enough to be resistant to ergodic literature.
I think there is a key point of comparison between social media/the internet and this book. With technology we are able to multitask very well. We can talk/text friends, check schedules, take pictures, look up information, and much more just on our phones. I think this can be a good thing as long as we don't ignore everything else. However, when I want to enjoy a book, I don't want to be distracted by all those other things. I am not the most disciplined person, and I readily utilize technology. So, if I get online to look up a definition or a translation, I risk getting side tracked and finding out that there are more than 300,000,000 capillaries in your lungs and if they were stretched out tip to tip they would reach approximately the distance between Atlanta and LA (you would also die). Wait, what were we talking about?

NEW YORK (AP) – Lady Gaga has been hospitalized and forced to pull out of the upcoming Rock in Rio music festival in Brazil, citing "severe physical pain" and posting a photo of what resembles an IV in her arm.
The 31-year-old singer-songwriter wrote on Twitter that she had to take care of her body and asked fans for their "grace and understanding."
Her representatives said in a statement that Lady Gaga was suffering from "severe physical pain" that affected her ability to perform and that she was under the care of "expert medical professionals."
It wasn't clear what she was suffering from or where she was being treated. She posted a photo on Instagram of her arm with a needle in it and a tube running outside the photo's frame.

Your food as a weapon of mass destruction?
As you sit down to your toast and jam, Weetabix, milk and honey, fry up or healthy home made muesli with almond milk, I invite you to consider if your diet is serving you. Is the food you are eating is being used as a weapon of mass destruction? Are we being controlled by the food industry… or someone else more sinster? (asked with a wry smile).
Currently, I am doing a detox, and my head is fuzzy, my body aches and my energy is limited. Today is a better day and three weeks into the detox.
The detox was initiated when I came back from a visit to the doctor who advised me that I have an over active thyroid. This, I thought (positively) can be sorted via my diet. After some research, I decided to go gluten free, the first benefits of this were that my usually swollen tum was not so Buddha like. At the same time, I gave up my glass of wine with dinner and black tea (bye bye Earl Grey). After a horrible reaction to L-Glutamine, for some bizarre reason I decided to look at my tongue. It was a gorgeous white furry object and thought yikes possible candida albicans overgrowth, better knock out what little sugar and yeast I consume too. For good measure, I also decide to eliminate the nightshade family (potatoes, tomatoes, abubergines, peppers, goji berries among other things). Almost straight away I couldn't crack my fingers and thumbs which I have been doing for years.
Work from a clean system as your base line
My theory is if I clean my system, then I can work out what I can add in by testing my reaction to each in turn. That way I design my diet for life.
Can you be arsed?
This is all well and good, but imagine if I was a person who couldn't be arsed to give up certain foods. Nothing would change and in fact things would probably get worse.
My situation aside, consider the food that is available. How fresh is it? How many chemicals have been used to produce it, or to preserve it so that it lasts longer?
Are synthetic foods safe? As someone who is taking supplements (vegan and as natural as possible) temporarily, one hopes so. But what of other artificial foods, the ones full of chemicals?
I guess that the government would say yes and that the chemicals have been tested and approved so why not? Is the government to be trusted? You tell me?
In the good old days, perhaps in a previous life and certainly in my great grandmother's day, food preservation would have been via fermentation, drying, salting and pickling. These methods would have naturally changed the chemical structure of the foods and helped to build a barrier against nasties and decay. Later, the food processing industry would discover other ways of preserving food and while not an expert in this, I imagine some of the preservatives are from natural sources and chemically altered in the lab and others are chemically created from who knows what. (I told you I wasn't an expert) Today food comes in packets, cans, and jars. These foods will have been dried, frozen or placed in a solution of some kind.
There are many benefits to food preservation such as consistency of product, flavour and availability. Here in lies a problem, why would you want anyone to play with your taste buds and force you to like a chemically altered food? What's wrong with eating seasonally available foods and extending your diet and recipe repertoire?
Mass production of food makes it cheaper for the food companies. It may be cheap, but is it right for you? What of the cost of any long-term health problems for you and the health service? What effect does processed food have on your gut, your brain and the rest of your systems? Why would you want to eat food that has had the nutrients destroyed through preservation and had them chemically added?
You may argue that you have 'no time' to prepare and cook fresh foods from scratch. Is that because you would rather watch a soap opera when you could be nourishing your body with delicious food?
Ok, I'll confess I have been there, done that, got the microwave, quick food t-shirt. I have eaten crap food and harmed my body in the process.
Today I am awake, aware and much more conscious, and no matter how tired I am, I focus on how much I will enjoy my dinner if I choose fresh organic produce. I always make too much so that on lazy days I have a freezer full of 'quick' meals.
Yesterday, I fancied cookies so made a tiny batch of 5, along with bean burgers. The whole process took me 30 minutes.
Yes, it takes time to think about what to eat. I often open my fridge and whinge that I have nothing to eat, yet it is crammed with vegetables. This is when I have to pick myself up by my boots and get my thinking cap on.
The bottom line is that I love me enough to be arsed. I also love the creative process involved in finding and experimenting with new recipes. They don't all work out, however, that's about learning how to use new ingredients.
Has food become a weapon of mass destruction?
It is my belief that by adding chemicals to food at any part of the process is tantamount to poisoning the human race. Every chemical that we pour into our bodies is adding to some 'evil plot' (had to get a conspiracy theory in here somewhere) to brainwash the human race.
Are we being controlled through the food chain? If we are kept in a brain fog, how can we stand up and change the world? If our food poisons us who stands to benefit, the food and drug companies? Although I am proud that our scientists have found ways to improve and save lives.
Luckily more and more people are waking up to the way that our food has been tampered with. More and more want to fill their bodies with light energy as they become spiritually aligned and are working with the light for their journey home.
Watch the language of food
This is good for you because it's fortified with vitamins, it's low fat, low sugar, natural, home-made or made with whole grains…
No, it's not!
Some food is not good for you. Home made means you make it at home. If you are gluten intolerant, some grains are a health hazard. Low fat and low sugar mean that your food has been altered with something horrible.
Do not let the marketers brainwash you.
Whatever your point of view and even if you think I am being dramatic, consider this. What if by changing your diet you could reduce or throw away your pills? What if the right food helped you to think more clearly and gave you better energy? What if by creating a diet for your life your years on Earth were healthy years that you could enjoy? What if your diet helped you to naturally find your ideal weight and you didn't have to follow any dieting plans again? What if you didn't get the diseases that your family suffers from?
What if you loved yourself enough to not follow the crowd and eat and drink what suits you?
Am I well behaved?
Er, no. I still buy my beans in jars, my wheatgrass in packets, my supplements although vegan, come in plastic containers, my water comes in plastic bottles (you cannot drink the tap water here), and among other things my teabags in boxes.
At present, I do not have land to grow veggies, but I am looking at how I can achieve this, starting with herbs in boxes hung on walls. Where I can, I pick wild herbs in the rambla. As each product I own runs out I am looking for better options. Where I can I will make changes and it will be done one step at a time. I believe it is about doing the best you can for yourself and your environment.
Here's to your good health!

• Trump is losing in Wisconsin. But why?
• RNC unveils contested contention website
• Sponsors balk at backing Republican convention
• Hillary grabs big lead in home state showdown with Trump
• Clean inside and out
Never underestimate the capacity of those in media and politics to overstate their influence. Like roosters who credit themselves with the sunrise, members of the narrow elite witness any phenomenon and immediately look for evidence of their own influence.
For example, Donald Trump's rise is often attributed to the jaw-dropping imbalances of coverage that he has received compared to other candidates. And the chasm has been embarrassingly deep indeed.
But that's a better explanation for why traditional candidates didn't catch on than why Trump first captured the support of his most ardent followers. His pre-existing celebrity combined with a message aimed right at the heart of the Americans whose lives have been most disrupted by the changing world economy did that. Trump and his acolytes did that.
This would sound obvious everywhere but in Washington, but it still merits saying: If Trump, as expected, becomes the Republican nominee, the media will bear considerable responsibility, but not nearly so much as he and his supporters.
Now Trump is stumbling. Predictable, avoidable distractions involving his campaign team and his attacks on a rival are piled on top of a series of three serious policy blunders.
Part of this is attributable to intensifying scrutiny, but part of this is because Trump's ability to clear one controversy by creating another is catching up with him. It was already costing him with voters even before the most recent round of troubles. After months of benefitting from media spasms by doubling down on what seemed like errors, Trump is, at least temporarily, outrunning his supply lines.
And as it would happen, there is a pivotal primary in five days. Wisconsin is the only major primary contest in a one-month span and could substantially reset the frame for the race as it goes into the remaining 16 states.
Wisconsin's Republican voters look an awful lot like those in neighboring Illinois and Michigan, states where Trump handily won primaries earlier this month. Fox News First has little doubt that if Wisconsin's primary had been held three weeks earlier, Trump would have been in a very strong position to win.
But April looks different than March and daily we see polls in Wisconsin that show Trump stuck around 30 percent and Sen. Ted Cruz leaping ahead thanks to voters who previously supported other candidates now out of the race.
Explaining this ought to be simple. The Republican nominating process is a referendum on Trump and Trump has been stumbling. Cruz has been working hard to woo supporters of his fallen rivals and voters in the Badger State are responding. It's a fairly simple dynamic, unless, of course, you are part of the narrow elite in the press or politics.
In that case, the reason Trump is losing is because the establishment is battling back. Just ask 'em.
That's silly. Establishment battling has done nothing but help Trump. Angry denunciations by the very serious people have given prankster Trump perfect straight lines. His voters oftentimes seem to love the destruction of the ruling caste more than they do their own champion.
Consider the current confounding claim that if Trump fails to win enough delegates to become the nominee, it will be because of trickery. Many Trump supporters ardently believe this and find efforts by other candidates to win as evidence of pure corruption.
Certainly the belated but sustained barrage of negative ads against Trump is taking its toll. And in that way, outside forces are at work in Wisconsin and elsewhere.
But as they did in explaining his rise, politicos and pressies continue to overstate their parts and underestimate the role of the candidate and voters in explaining Trump's stumbles.
If Trump breaks down on the back nine, it won't be the fault of the announcers in the booth or the sponsors of the tournament. It will be just him and his scorecard.
Trump backs then immediately opposes women being punished for having abortions - Fox News: "Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump quickly walked back a statement he made earlier Wednesday that if abortion were illegal in the United States, then women who have the procedure should be punished - saying later that only those who performed the procedure should be punished."
[Staunch pro-lifer Molly Hemmingway makes the case for how Trump's answer on abortion could sabotage the pro-life movement.]
Trump tries to change the subject with tax release refusal - The Hill: "The Donald Trump campaign on Wednesday released what appears to be a letter from the Republican presidential front-runner's tax attorneys saying that his tax filings since 2009 are currently being audited. 'Your personal tax returns have been under continuous examination by the Internal Revenue Service since 2002, consistent with the IRS's practice for large and complex businesses,' reads the letter, signed by tax partners Sheri Dillon and William Nelson of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius. The letter says that the IRS had concluded its audit of Trump's filings from 2002 through 2008 without 'assessment or payment, on a net basis, of any deficiency.'"
[FiveThirtyEight explains how Donald Trump successfully hacked the media from the beginning of this cycle.]
RNC unveils contested contention website - David Drucker has the inside scoop on the Republican National Committee's new website with info about a possible contested convention: "The Republican Party on Thursday is unveiling a website to educate the media and the public on the rules of contested presidential nominating convention…'ConventionFacts.gop is a tool for voters to learn about convention delegates, rules, and how the overall process works in a simple, easy to understand format,' RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said in a statement provided to the Washington Examiner. 'Conventions are democracy in action and our Party's gathering in Cleveland will be an exciting, transparent, and fair process.'"
Sponsors balk at backing Republican convention - NYT: "Some of the country's best-known corporations are nervously grappling with what role they should play at the Republican National Convention, given the likely nomination of Donald J. Trump, whose divisive candidacy has alienated many women, blacks and Hispanics. An array of activist groups is organizing a campaign to pressure the companies to refuse to sponsor the gathering, which many of the corporations have done for the Republican and the Democratic Parties for decades. The pressure is emerging as some businesses and trade groups are privately debating whether to scale back their participation, according to interviews with more than a dozen lobbyists, consultants and fund-raisers directly involved in the conversations. Apple, Google and Walmart are among the companies assessing their plans for the convention, which will be held July 18 to 21 in Cleveland."
[GOP delegate count: Trump 736; Cruz 463; Kasich 143 (1,237 needed to win)]
The Paris Review interviewed linguist Sally Thomason on her study of what she describes as a "stubborn" language, the tribal language called Montana Salish, meaning they have not borrowed from any other language influences in the hundreds of years of existence: "My family was already spending summers one mountain range [in the Pacific Northwest] to the east of the easternmost Salish language—most of the Salish languages are on the coast…I like consonants, and they have thirty-eight consonants. I like big, long, complicated words, and they have huge, long, complicated words…They don't borrow from English or French. French was the other European language they were exposed to, but that stubbornness—it's not unique, that's what's interesting. That is an areal feature, it's part of the linguistic area. I don't know if it spreads all the way to the coast but it certainly spreads to the Nez Perce, an unrelated language."

Real Clear Politics Averages
National GOP nomination: Trump 42.3 percent; Cruz 31.7 percent; Kasich 19.2 percent
National Dem nomination: Clinton 51.3 percent; Sanders 42.3 percent
General Election: Clinton vs. Trump: Clinton +11.2 points
Generic Congressional Vote: Democrats +1
A new poll from Quinnipiac University shows Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton trouncing her Republican counterpart Donald Trump by a whopping 20 points in their home state of New York.
The Empire State has been one of the talked about states that might flip in the general election if the matchup was Clinton and Trump due to the number of blue collar white voters.
But this poll shows that even in overwhelmingly white areas in the suburban New York City, Upstate and Western regions, Trump still loses to Clinton. But neither of the remaining anti-Trumps fares any better. Clinton also beats Sen. Ted Cruz by a large margin, and edges out Gov. John Kasich by five points.
Predictable pitch - Although this year seems like the year of political revolutions in presidential politics, Roll Call columnist Walter Shapiro says Clinton's predictable platform might offer voters some peace of mind when heading to the polls: "…[I]n these tumultuous times, the underlying message of the Clinton campaign is: 'Please be seated. Everything will be okay.'"
Bernie not berned by D.C. - Amid reports that Sanders name was left off the District of Columbia's Democratic primary ballot, WaPo breaks down how the error occurred. Bottom line: D.C. residents will get to vote for Sanders on the June 14 primary.
Even Vox… - The liberal explainers at Vox point out that even those who agree with Sanders' tuition-free college have a hard time understanding how his plan intends to achieve that: "Specifically, he is offering a 2-to-1 federal match for states that do this along with meeting a few other criteria like reducing reliance on adjunct faculty. This is a sufficiently attractive offer that some states would probably go for it. But it's going to cost a lot of money, and tax-averse Republican governors like [Wisconsin Gov. Scott] Walker pretty clearly aren't going to do it. Sanders implies that Wisconsin students will just head to blue states like California instead. But his plan doesn't provide California with any money to cut tuition for out-of-state students. And by increasing in-state enrollment at California universities, Sanders' plan would almost certainly make it harder for Wisconsinites to get into public schools in California."
The Judge's Ruling: - With an interview with FBI investigators approaching, "the investigation of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's failure to protect state secrets contained in her emails has entered its penultimate phase," says Senior Judicial Analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano, adding "it is a dangerous one for her and her aides."

The Week: "Thousands of marathon runners in China needed medical treatment after they mistook bars of grape-scented soap for much-needed energy bars. The soap was handed out at the end of a 26-mile race in Qingyuan, in Guangdong province. Around 20,000 people took part in the event and, according to Chinese newspaper People's Daily, some 12,000 of them ended up requiring assistance. It's not clear how many fell ill after eating the scented bars. 'You may take it for granted that the gift package given by marathon organisers should contain some energy reviving food and so did the 20,000 marathon runners,' reports the People's Daily of China. 'However, the gel-like bars turned out to be soaps.' The packaging was in English, reports the BBC, which may have confused the competitors. Witnesses reported 'many bars of soap, all with one bite missing, dumped at the roadside.'"

Here's a look at one I turned down.
There's been an awful lot of volatility in the markets over the past couple of weeks, with geopolitical uncertainty dominating the landscape and nobody really sure (as the failure of the pools in the US to come anywhere close to an accurate representation of reality shows) what's going on.
As a side note, that's something I generally like to accept – nobody really known what's going on. Anyone that claims they do, is hiding something. Sure, we've got experts in various fields, and they know their field, but when it comes to predicting human behavior, and especially when it comes to applying that prediction to any sort of model with a number of potential outcomes, it all falls apart.
That's why my strategy works so well.
We don't need to know what's going on. Price tells us, and we respond in a risk appropriate manner. It's that simple.
Anyway, back to the point.
Last week a pin bar presented itself on the USDJPY chart. It's in the image below:
These are some of my favorite patterns, and it falls in line with my longer term USD fundamental bias, but I ignored the trade.
Because look at that tail! That's why.
With these patterns, the tail defines my risk. Every time.
If I was to take the position, I would be looking at targeting somewhere in the region of 500 pips minimum, and that's a stretch, even in line with my bias. If the reward doesn't justify the risk, I leave it be. I may regret it over the next couple of days (price is running up towards the region I would have targeted) but I've been here before, and when my strategy says no, I have to listen.
There'll be something else around the corner.
