He looked at me and walked away
What did he see, thought I with frown,
Fellow genius or happy clown?

Genius is talent set on fire by courage. Henry VanDyke
Geniuses have dramatic moments of insight where great things and thoughts are born whole. Poems are written in dreams. Symphonies are composed complete. Science is accomplished with eureka shrieks. Businesses are built by magic touch. Something is not, then is. Kevin Ashton, How to Fly a Horse: The Secret History of Creation, Invention, and Discovery
The trouble isn't so much that we don't know enough, but it's as if we aren't good enough. The trouble isn't so much that our scientific genius lags behind, but our moral genius lags behind. The great problem facing modern man is that, that the means by which we live, have outdistanced the spiritual ends for which we live." Martin Luther King Jr., Rediscovering Lost Values
Genius at first is little more than a great capacity for receiving discipline. George Eliot
Genius without education is like silver in the mine. Benjamin Franklin

True genius resides in the capacity for evaluation of uncertain, hazardous, and conflicting information. Winston Churchill

Learning | Poems about Life
Geniuses in the world ... are undervalued and underutilized. These people are a vital national resource, as potentially powerful and existence-altering as any new energy source, medical discovery, or microchip. Not to tap this vital resource and put it to its best use is unproductive and unhealthy for the individual and the society. Mary-Elaine Jacobsen, The Gifted Adult
A man's ability to stick beyond the endurance point brings him in touch with the mystic genius which bridges the chasm from failure to success." Dorothea Kopplin, Something to Live By
To forgive is wisdom, to forget is genius. And easier. Because it's true. Joyce Lunel Cary, Irish Novelist

Sometimes we see other people as a genius as we feel they are smarter than we are. They have more education, they can talk a good talk, but many times education and real world experience - what some would call "street smarts" - can make all the difference. Catherine Pulsifer, Showing Common Sense

People of humor are always in some degree people of genius." S. T. Coleridge
"I am not arguing that every human being can become a genius. (Nor would we want a world with that many geniuses). I am not arguing that we all have exactly the same potential. I am not arguing that genes and genetic differences don't strongly influence who we are and what we can become. I am arguing that very few of us ever get to know our own true potential, and that many of us mistake early difficulties for innate limits." David Shenk, The Genius in All of Us

"Elbert Hubbard, the most positive human force of his time, is a man of genius in business, in art, in literature, in philosophy. He is an idealist, dreamer, orator, scientist. In his knowledge of the fundamental, practical affairs of living, in business, in human interests, in education, politics and law he seems without a competitor." Alice Moore Hubbard, Elbert Hubbard's wife
Elbert Hubbard Quotes
"Even if you are a born genius, you require focused and dedicated work to achieve even an iota of success." Chitesh Bhat, Everybody is Genius
You only have to be smart enough to fulfill the intellectual requirements for success. History's greatest achievers; practical, savvy people that did big things and changed the world - are heralded as the greatest geniuses to ever have walked the earth, but while many of them had remarkably high IQs, many others were just smart enough. Sean Patrick, Awakening Your Inner Genius
The life of a genius is not contained in the using of talents for self-worth, but is projected outside of oneself for the benefit of many. Byron R. Pulsifer
Helping Others
I have found, over and over, that a person of average intelligence with clear goals will run circles around a genius who is not sure what he or she really wants. Brian Tracy, Goals! How to Get Everything You Want
Goal Setting
Even grappling with how to explore the subject of "genius" is a task fraught with pitfalls. I think it can safely be said that neither race nor class limits the potential of an individual. People who are gifted with unusual intellectual ability or creativity - and who work diligently to make those talents a reality - we often call geniuses.
Dick Russell, Black Genius
Encouraging Poems
To me, a genius is someone with a brilliant mind who has had great accomplishments in a challenging field, and changed the world in some meaningful way. As vague as this definition may seem, the essence of genius is limitless. There appear to be no bounds to what geniuses can accomplish. To define it much further, is to limit something that is supposed to be limitless. I. C. Robledo, The Secret Principles of Genius
"The man of genius inspires us with a boundless confidence in our own powers." Ralph Waldo Emerson
The event of perception and recognition itself, not to mention the vast array of abilities in thought, emotion, and communication, indicates a real genius of being at work. This same level of genius applies to the infinitely complex intelligence in the design of our bodies and the entire universe. Peter Ralston, The Genius of Being
Inspirational Poems
Genius is more a reflection of one's ability to assimilate beyond that which can be obviously seen. It means that issues or problems are the fuel or catalyst for positive change rather than a roadblock to progress. Theodore W. Higgingsworth

Spirituality within Judaism – Learnings from Amma
By Keren Tuch
The air was holy. People walked the aisles as if levitating in a state of awe. As the holy Amma appeared on stage and performed her ritualistic puja, the audience – a mix of Indians, curious onlookers and dedicated ashram junkies- were mesmerized by her presence. She offered words of wisdom and compassion, and an opportunity to escape the rat race through meditation. Yes, Australia was privy to have the auspices of Amma join our shores last week.
Amma is another Jesus of the 21st Century – a compassionate beacon of hope to those who are looking for a little more meaningful than the Biggest Loser can provide. Her rotund figure and genuine smile did indeed radiate a sense of calmness and one could see how she has been dubbed the hugging saint. A booklet handed out at the ceremony stated that "Amma is revered throughout the world as one of the most outstanding humanitarian and spiritual leaders of our time." She has established a charity called Embracing the World which has many humanitarian projects in India and around the world from disaster relief to women's empowerment and slum renovations. More than her humanitarian work, she also spiritually embraces anyone who comes across her path, and she claims to have hugged more than 30 million people in the past 39 years.
I listened to her sweet utterances, but I did not receive my hug as I made the judgment call that an extra 2 hours sleep would be more nourishing than a hug from Amma. Her speech was inspiring, but nothing new. Our bodies are borrowed, and we spend too much time focusing on it. Meditation is chicken soup for the soul and are the key to achieving a healthy mind, rather than just something for people who have nothing better to do! We often give more importance to money than to our loved ones. These wonderful sentiments seemed to be what honey is for Pooh Bear. The 500+ people in the audience were seeking this reinforcement, which is hard to attain in our daily lives.
And it got me thinking. As a product of the Jewish School system I can state the five books of the Torah, recite the morning prayers and list the non-kosher animals. The Judaism I was taught was a very tangible practical Judaism that has a litany of commandments with a whole book of Rabbinic discussions for every one of those commandments. One of my many teachers once mentioned it is like an instruction manual for living. A rule book if you like. For those that need structure in their lives, Judaism has it all. But where is the wishy washy esoteric babble that addresses the spiritual questions? Sure, Judaism can claim Kabbalah, but that's certainly not the Judaism I was taught. Ethics of the Fathers may have some gold nuggets to dig out, but it is not our primary source of reference and doesn't quite address questions of the after life or the soul.
I was talking to a group of people about the concept of mindfulness regarding food. It seems to be a buzz word these days with many dieticians jumping on the bandwagon trying to get people to eat slowly and appreciate the food that they're eating as a key to not over consuming. When discussing different ways of being mindful, we acknowledged that the hardest thing to do was the act of remembering. It was at that moment I understood that the point of all Judaism's minute laws was to help one to remember the holiness. The brachot that are said before eating any food requires the individual to be mindful about what they are eating and therefore choose the appropriate blessing. When it becomes a rule to say a blessing before putting anything in your mouth, in one way it becomes easier to be mindful. On the other hand, after a while it may soon just become a mere utterance that is recited ritualistically and without any meaning at all. Whilst prayer should be a time to connect with a higher source; for me, when chanting the prayers repetitively, it has become an action devoid of meaning.
It is human nature to seek meaning in life, and for some it is hard to contemplate that we will return to dust and nothing more. Whilst Judaism is a religion based on laws and rituals, perhaps we should impress the spirituality within Judaism on those that want to continue their Jewish journey. Why leave spirituality for the new age kabbalists to claim?

Regular price
$ 65.00
This antique brass box was hand wrought in the form of a melon, probably a bitter melon given the profusion of repoussé bumps and ridges hammered into the metal. Cascading down the front are beautifully fashioned vines, along with a large leaf, ending in two bell-shaped flowers; the vines continue to meander down under the box. The box closes with a hand-fashioned pin latch of the type found on Ming Dynasty furniture. The lid has a small cylinder of brass protruding at its front, while the pin, pointed at one end and having a flat button of brass at the other, slides through a small cylinder at the top of the vines (it's partially open and pulled to the left in the photographs). There are several piercings in the lid; the box may have been used to burn incense, as there is a slight perfume scent inside (but no burnt residue). Although it's unmarked, we believe it to be Chinese.
This Asian treasure measures 5 1/2 inches wide, 4 inches high and almost 5 inches front to back. Made in the mid to late 1800's, it has a wonderful age-darkened patina with touches of verdigris. The brass is exquisitely thin, the condition very good and the workmanship very fine.

John Terry has look of a future manager, says Guus Hiddink
"In some players you see while they are playing there might be managers inside them already," the Dutchman told a news conference.sports Updated: Apr 01, 2016 20:49 IST
Chelsea captain John Terry is showing all the qualities of a future manager, the club's interim boss Guus Hiddink said on Friday.
Terry, 35, is keen to continue his playing career at Stamford Bridge but has not yet been offered a new contract for next season.
Hiddink said the decision was not down to him, but in the longer term he could see the former England central defender as a manager.
"In some players you see while they are playing there might be managers inside them already," the Dutchman told a news conference.
"You see that most of the time in midfield positions or centre-backs. These guys are already leaders.
"In my career I've had some examples like (Southampton's) Ronald Koeman in my first spell at Eindhoven, who you could see was tactically very strong and a leader.
"And (Watford's) Quique Sanchez Flores at Valencia too."
Terry would need "extra courses" and would be well advised to start as an assistant, Hiddink added.
"Some players think they can do it overnight but I doubt that."
Hiddink, who is leaving Chelsea at the end of the season, hinted that he might experiment with different players in his remaining eight Premier League matches, starting at Aston Villa on Saturday.
With striker Diego Costa now banned for an additional game, that could mean a belated debut for Brazilian striker Alexandre Pato, who joined Chelsea in January on loan from Corinthians.
"His fitness has improved," Hiddink said.
"He has worked very hard during the international break.
"To be honest there is not much to win for Chelsea any more. I don't give any player a guarantee but there might be some time for experiments."
Belgian midfielder Eden Hazard is still not fit and there will be fitness checks on Oscar, Willian and Bertrand Traore who faced long journeys back from international matches.
Hiddink believes bottom-of-the-table Villa will be keen to impress Villa's caretaker manager Eric Black after Remi Garde was sacked this week.
"When there is a change there is automatically a reaction. We can expect an entertaining game," he added.

This blanket is the aforementioned nonchalantly draped wool blanket from my last post. I haven't noticed it before in my parent's house, but I'm sure it was there for a while. I asked my Mom about it while visiting for Thanksgiving... thinking maybe she had picked it up at a yard sale or something. I was wrong... Apparently this blanket is over a hundred years old!
Close-up of the patterns on it
So - here's the story: My Great Grandfather bought a large tract of land in Charlottesville, VA when he was starting his family. The property he bought was an old farm known as Brookhill, built circa 1815. I think it was originally a farm of some sort. He was a professor of Mathematics at the University of Virginia, and also commuted to teach somewhere in New York. He was a busy man with a growing family, and didn't really have time to mow the large grassy areas on his property. So, one year he decided to buy some sheep for the sole purpose of keeping the lawn from getting ratty. When the sheep needed to be sheared, my Great Grandmother decided to send the wool off somewhere to be spun, then made into a blanket. I'm guessing it's woven, certainly not knit. There were 4 blankets made, one for each child. My Grandfather got the one my mother has now. It's amazing to me. I love it just because it's nearly a PART of the family! It's a true family heirloom - something no one else in this world would have except if they were in our family. It's so cool. And I think it's beautiful.

Ousted Tata Sons' chairman Cyrus Mistry on Tuesday defended his record at the company and said allegations that he oversaw rising expenses and impairment provisions as "another brazen attempt to mislead the public and shareholders."
Mistry was ousted last month as chairman of Tata Sons, the holding company for the $100 billion steel-to-software Tata empire. Patriarch Ratan Tata is now back at the helm temporarily and a bitter public spat has since ensued between the two sides.
Mistry, in a statement on Tuesday, said one reason for a rise in expenses under his tenure was because Tata Sons was bearing some costs on behalf of Tata's chairman emeritus Ratan Tata, while impairments and write downs were due to legacy issues.
His comments were in response to Tata Sons' statement last week, which highlighted rising expenses and impairment provisions under Mistry.
"The challenges the group faced could not be wished away," Mistry's statement said, detailing the challenges that Mistry had inherited as chairman.
Mistry said in the statement that the group had been bearing the costs for Ratan Tata, when he was chairman emeritus of Tata Sons and also chair of the Tata trusts, including his use of corporate jets and total office cost of about 300 million rupees in 2015.
The statement also said that the impairments at Tata Sons were due to legacy issues, largely relating to Tata Teleservices Ltd, and that Mistry had focused on building reserves and resources to handle the write downs.
Tata Sons did not have an immediate comment and Ratan Tata could not immediately be reached for comment. Tata Sons is also looking to remove Mistry as chairman of several of the Tata group's companies. The group last week axed Mistry as chair of Tata Consultancy Services, a company in which Tata Sons owns more than 70 percent.
Mistry remains chairman of Tata Steel and Tata Motors, owner of Jaguar Land Rover. The automaker's board late on Monday gave Mistry a tacit nod, but stopped short of an outright endorsement.
Tata Global Beverages, which co-owns and runs Starbucks coffee stores across India, became the first Tata group company whose board of directors on Tuesday voted to oust Mistry as chairman. Seven out of 10 directors voted for Mistry's ouster and appointed Tata veteran Harish Bhat in his place.
For Tata companies where Tata Sons does not have a majority stake, Mistry would have to be removed by a board vote.

During a press luncheon in New York City on Monday, Costas proposed an anthem protest compromise between NFL players and the fans.
The Sporting News describes Costas' idea this way:
What if NFL players protesting social issues, ranging from Kaepernick's protest of police shootings of unarmed black men to Mike Evans' protest of the election of Donald Trump, agreed to stay in the locker room during the singing of the national anthem?
That way, fans in the stadium, and the millions watching at home, would be spared the sight of players kneeling or sitting out the presentation of Old Glory and the singing of the "Star-Spangled Banner."
In return, the teams, on their own dime and own time, would arrange press conferences for players to share their views. Team facilities would be used for these pressers. And the clubs would invite press to attend for them, making sure their message was widely heard.
Costas elaborated further, "It might be more prudent for the league and the teams to say, 'We will make an organized forum available. You want to state what your position is? We'll make it available. We'll have the press there. And if you want to remain in the locker room, remain in the locker room.'
"I think you would get more clarity. Player A says, 'I am staying in the locker room for this reason.' Player B says, 'I am staying in the locker room for this reason.' Player C says, 'I'm coming out and standing for the anthem for this reason.' But I'd give them all an opportunity to articulate, in a clear way, what their position is. Rather than have the world wonder."

Two-Way Radio Workshop Poll
3 comments:
Since CERT training seems to have put aside the notion of a CERT radio system or network, perhaps the class could address the logistics of setting up ad hoc nets of 2 nodes ('walkie-talkies')and 'family' (2-6) units , and unserved phones (phones w/ 'walkie-talkie' feature), so we can make the most of the various devices that might still be usable in our neighborhood, in case of land & cellular loss.ReplyDelete
jrb's comment is one topic that needs to be addressed in the class. Another is how to establishing a communication plan to that everyone on a team needs to know what channel to use. On larger incidents having multiple teams engaged at multple sites, each group has their own communication needs, and there also needs to be coordination between teams. It doesn't work when too many people try to use the same channel, so there needs to be a plan. It is helpful to have experienced radio operators monitor more than one device, so that information can be passed between groups, and when necessary, relayed to a public safety answering point via telephone or other means.ReplyDelete
Those licensed in the General Mobile Radio Service may use radios having repeater capability and are allowed to interoperate with Family Radio Service users on the seven channels which are in common with FRS. There are several GMRS repeaters in Fairfax and Arlington which are used by REACT groups, Red Cross etc. These could also be used by CERT personnel who have the proper FCC license and a radio with this capability. Amateur (ham) radio is another option. It would be nice to know how many CERTs we have besides me who are FCC licensed radio users, either GMRS or ham.
Some good points Ed. That information is very dependent on location, especially the use of a CERT link into the county Em.Com.ReplyDelete
I think Derek is trying to integrate a Fairfax CERT member/resource list with the county GIS(mapping), which I think could include that information (if we can provide it), so we could plan how it could be used. I'm pretty sure the county and ARES Em.Plans already have the ham repeaters fully allocated, so we just need to document for ourselves, the coordinator for each repeater, and the kind of traffic we need to pass, so the ham control operators at (A)EOC/PSTOC will be ready to handle it.
Derek might be willing to add license & special equipment information to the Fx CERT Roster he sent out some months ago.
For larger ops & exercises, most municipal services are migrating to digital trunked systems, and if CERT bases our training on manually assigned channels (like trunks), we could find ourselves more flexible & compatible during mutual aid events.

City Council members say utility providers are forcing taxpayers to bear the cost of overseeing hundreds of miles of fiber installation.
"I just want to tell you I think it's wrong. I am disappointed in the utilities," City Councilman Steve Schewel said. "I think it is unfair to taxpayers."
The issue came up Monday night as the City Council considered and ultimately renewed telecommunication licenses for AT&T and affiliated companies.
Before the vote, Schewel and others expressed frustration about the possibility the city might have to bear more of the cost of permitting, inspecting and other challenges associated with the installation of fiber optic cable across Durham.
For years, the city has been collecting license fees from utilities that let them work in the public right-of-way. The city also collected permit and inspection fees for individual projects, such as the installation of fiber.
In 2015, city officials adjusted the fee formula to recapture 50 percent of the administrative costs of overseeing the fiber installation, said Deputy City Manager Bo Ferguson. Previously the city recouped about 23 percent.
City officials were using those fees to pay contractor Kimley-Horn and Associates from $3 million to $4 million over four years to issue permits, inspect work and address complaints associated with the installation of more than 2,000 miles of fiber – half of it underground – across Durham.
Since June 2015, more than 650 miles have been installed and 1,100 miles have been permitted, according to a city report. About 20 to 60 fiber installation crews are active in Durham each day to provide the much faster service. Google Fiber says it will offer internet speeds about 100 times faster than a typical broadband connection.
The city has received 632 related complaints – 523 relating to AT&T and 109 relating to Google Fiber. Complaints relate to the restoration of the right-of-way, damaged utility lines and other issues.
The legislature adopted on July 22 a law that limits municipalities' ability to charge fees for activities in the rights-of-way for certain utility providers, including telecommunications.
The law, which goes into effect July 1, states that municipalities can charge a fee if the cost of administering the right-of-way program exceeds the revenue the city gets from state sales and use tax, a tax that some utilities collect from their users.
"I know that you and the other utilities went to the legislature to lobby for this," Schewel told AT&T officials Monday. "I just want to express my feeling, my strong feeling, that this should not be an expense that the taxpayer should bear."
Robert Doreauk, AT&T regional director of external affairs, said the legislative change clarified the use of fees that utility companies already pay. The city receives $20 million annually from a fund that telecommunications, energy and gas companies pay into.
City officials dispute Doreauk's characterization, pointing out that utility users pay a tax on services that go into the fund, not the utility companies.
The law authorizing the sales and use tax states that the money "is a general revenue source for state and local governments" said Donald O'Toole, a city attorney. "It wasn't set up as reimbursement for local governments' inspection programs."
Ferguson said city officials are exploring various options to recoup the money or adjust the process.
"We are trying to figure out how we are going to continue to deal with the significant volume that we have," Ferguson said.

We ordered all our breakers. In NYS someone convinced code enforcement that 'arc fault' breakers are necessary. The breakers for our small house cost $750. According to an electrician I talked to, unless you have aluminum wire in your walls and you put in new boxes made for copper, arcs are a virtual impossibility, and that some kind of lobbying probably was going on to make this a law.
Really coming together.Love your TV stand.
We got our temporary occupancy a few weeks ago, so we finally get to live up here. Feels great. And it was just in time because we had a little girl join us the week after. Keeping us busy but what a joy, and what a great place to raise her.

Well, for one reason and another, I have to learn Python. Like many people, I started out disliking the whitespace sensitivity. I've already been pretty badly burned by it at least once — to be fair, that's partially because my editor likes to use tabs.
… And that's where we run into my fundamental gripe about Python. It's smug. The designers and developers have decided that they have found The Right Way To Do Things. If your editor likes to convert spaces to tabs, you'll get screwed pretty badly sometimes, but it's your fault for having a "misconfigured" editor. Never mind that the editor still needs to be set that way for everything else you work on; it's misconfigured because it hasn't been changed to adapt to the Python Way.
There's a lot of preening in stuff about Python about how "readable" it is. I'm not convinced. Yes, it has less punctuation than C. Does less punctuation make things more readable? If so, someone should let all the people who are writing books about grammar know that punctuation is a bad idea and they should change English away from using it, because punctuation is unreadable and therefore bad.
I don't wanna come across as being overly hostile to this. I mean, heck, at least it's not PHP. And getting away from the damning with faint praise territory, it really is a pretty simple, clean, language to work in thus far. I can see people liking that, and there are tasks for which I might like such a language.
However, all this stuff about the whitespace sensitivity and how wonderful it is and you'll grow to love it comes across as Stockholm Syndrome. Wait until the first time you have a hunk of Python in which something unknown went wrong with the indentation, and then see how clear and legible it is. You are by definition given no cues as to where the blocks end. You aren't even allowed to have cues as to where the blocks end unless you want to add tons of extra comment lines.
One of the reasons I'm writing this is that the book I was reading smugly told me that if I don't like the whitespace thing, to come back six months later and see if I still dislike it. Okay, yeah, I get it, you're older and smarter and more experienced and just plain better than us plebes who write in C and Ruby and other languages that are not designed about looking pretty to people who don't know them.
(EDIT: A bit over two years later, I still hate it, and it still causes me trouble regularly.)
The language itself isn't too bad, but the smugness of the developer community is pretty offputting. I get along better with C and Ruby programmers, who are quite willing to acknowledge that their favorite languages have quirks and flaws.

VietNamNet Bridge – High tides over the last few days damaged a 20-metre section of an anti-flood construction work along riverbanks in Can Tho City's Ninh Kieu District, affecting the property of dozens of households yesterday.
High tides caused serious flooding on Phan Dinh Phung Street in Can Tho City on October 7. — VNA/VNS Photo Thanh Liem
The damage occurred at area 3 on Khuong Islet in the district's Cai Khe Ward.
Several roads in the city centre were deeply flooded in the early morning and late afternoon.
Dozens of households lost household goods and fish cages that were swept away to river.
Nguyen Van Giau, a local resident, said his home and dozens of other households were suddenly flooded by the tides in the early morning.
Another resident, Bui Van Day, 67, said his house was submerged by water higher than 0.5 metres.
"Flood waters came so fast. All my household tools and goods were destroyed or damaged, and four pigs died of asphyxiation", he said.
Duong Tan Hien, chairman of the district's People's Committee, said after receiving information from residents, the district mobilised military forces to help local residents.
By the afternoon yesterday, some of the problems had been resolved but the area was still flooded. To save orchards and reduce damage to the households, authorities will pump water out of the area.
The Southern Hydro-Meteorological Station has predicted that tides in Can Tho City will exceed two metres, more than the 0.26m on October 10.

See Economics With a Human Face from The WSJ. Excerpts:
"economics—a hugely influential approach to studying human societies—isn't worth all that much without first understanding what it means to be human.
Mr. Morson is a professor of Slavic literature at Northwestern University, and Mr. Schapiro teaches economics there"
"Economics, they argue, has been stripped down to a theory neglecting language and culture. At the same time, literary study has abandoned its responsibility to lead students to the best that has been thought and said. The humanities, Messrs. Morson and Schapiro contend, should acknowledge economics for worldly purposes. Yet for a truly human science the economists need literature, philosophy and history. Each discipline can supply what the other lacks."
"The real Smith observes that human beings summon qualities of sympathy balanced with their self-interest. People are not merely economic maximizers: They are ethical creatures from the get-go."
"Messrs. Morson and Schapiro advocate a fusion the economist Bart Wilson and the Nobelist Vernon Smith have recently dubbed "humanomics." The humanities study categories, and the initial step of categorization is essential to any human inquiry."
"You can't measure gross domestic product or unemployment without first saying what they are, qualitatively, as categories of interest to humans."
"There is no God-term telling us from the outside what categories humans care about. Economics, physics, biology, history—all need the first, humanistic, categorizing step."

Settling doubts: territorial organization in 'Hispania: Saints & Warriors'.
September 26, 2014 Hispania
One of the chapters that usually arouses the curiosity of people who know 'Hispania: Saints & Warriors' is the territorial division that they will experience during the game. In order to get closer to a medieval territorial organization, ours is a bit more complex than in other games, but it is no big deal. Let's see:
The map of Hispania is divided during the game on two types of territorial division: the dominion, which would be the representation of the countryside; on the other hand, the site, space physically located on the dominions, but politically and legally independent of them...Read More

Voices of the Mono Basin Outdoor Education CenterWednesday, October 11th, 2017 by Mono Lake Committee Staff
This post was written by Rose Nelson, 2017 Outdoor Education Instructor.
After a year of preparation, student anticipation has been building. Questions, excitement, and a little anxiety about traveling far from home whirl in young minds.
These students make the decision to get in a van and drive over 300 miles; a drive into a journey of where their water comes from. This journey is one of emotional, physical, a mental challenges: the touch of snow, breathing clean air, feeling the elevation of the Mono Basin, seeing wildlife for the first time, submerging themselves in salty alkaline water, strolling the rim of a volcano, and building bonds with their communities, the natural world, and themselves.
It is a journey we will take you on with their voices; the voices of the Mono Basin Outdoor Education Center. What follows is an accumulation of thoughts and feelings—a poetic language—of the various students of the OEC. (more…)

Personal SoulClass – Day 28
So! Not long after my last post (yesterday) did I actually see just how many changes are happening. It's funny really, right when you think nothing's happening in life, little do you know all that's happening behind the stage! I found out that my team is definitely receiving a replacement BEFORE my birthday. Meaning, Management actually spoke to my boss and told him YESTERDAY that … Continue reading Personal SoulClass – Day 28

After long discussions and some personal contemplating, we have ultimately decided to keep the server alive. I want to thank all the players who have gone out of their way to drop off a note of love for the server, and I want to thank the current people involved in changing the server for the better.
The server will be going through some projected changes through the next few weeks/months. This may be a huge change, so please keep checking the forum for new posts.
The server will also welcome some new juniors. As usual, we don't be publicly announcing them.
You can all look forward to the next HSG V (tomorrow!) and take a load off and play easy.
Happy Hermiting, everyone!

This weekend our team was traveling to Dallas, Texas. We left for Dallas on Friday right after practice. The good thing about traveling with our team is that we don't have to pay any money for transportation; all food that coaches order for us is for free as well. On Friday on the way we stopped at Subway and we got some tasty sandwiches. We were in Dallas around 9.30 pm on Friday. When we got there we went to the hotel. This time we slept in Radisson, we watched some TV and then we went to sleep. We didn't stay up very late because we knew that we had to wake up early in the morning. On Saturday we played four matches. We won the first one 2:0 and the other three we tied 1:1. I think we could have won more games but always something happened in the game which stopped us from victory. But I think that we played overall pretty well, we just have to learn from the mistakes we did and not to repeat them again in the future. It is the beginning of April right now and our season starts at the end of august so we still have plenty of time to work on our physical strength and volleyball skills. On Saturday we got done around 6.30 pm. After our last match we traveled home. It was a long drive for us but we entertained ourselves. We slept as well so it went pretty fast. Today is Sunday and we have day off. Everybody is relaxing and getting ready for tomorrow's practice.

Brewery: Nita Beer Company (Ottawa, Canada)
Type: Blonde Ale
IBU: 44.6 (Yes… they gave it to a decimal place…I don't know why)
Thoughts: Lots of carbonation happening. Golden shine- looks more like a lager/pilsner than an ale- I guess that's where the blonde ale comes in though. Very thin and delicate head quickly taken care of by the many bubbles. Gentle floral sweetness to the nose- it's nice on the nose. Dang it's fresh. Balanced maltiness / hops flavouring. This is an OK easy drinker with a bit of interest. Unfortunately it lingers a little long on the back of the tongue. It's a bit of soapiness in the hops. Yes, soapiness, in the aroma too. Apart from that it's a nice beer. PROBLEM BEING…. every brewery seems to makes a Blonde Ale, so at this point, to me, if you're coming out with a blonde ale, it had better be nearly perfect and thirst quenching, but this one is far from the top, so it makes it a but superfluous.

I went ahead and bought a new fancier computer (it was about time) with win10, 16Gb ram, etc. Exported the FBX again.... and:
- it imports in Blender
- BLACK in Akeytsu
- DOESN'T work in Unity (no errors, but no geometry)
- opens in a 3D app that comes with windows apparently (mixed reality viewer), BUT the smoothing groups are all wrong, some are all flat shaded, others smooth.
- opens in Rocket3F (Nvil) and when resaved from there, it works in all programs.
Could someone just export a model from Silo to fbx and attach it here please.

MONROE, Conn. – In a holy celebration of the Christmas season, the St. John XXIII Council 5987 of the Knights of Columbus will be gathering on the Monroe Town Green for a blessing of its creche.
The blessing ceremony will be at 1 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 19. The pubic is invited to attend. The Monroe Town Green is located at the corner of Fan Hill Road and Route 111 in the center of town.
It is the first creche on the Town Green in recent memory, said Kevin Donovan, of the St. John XXIII Council 5987, who has lived in Monroe for over 25 years.
The Knights of Columbus had to get permission from First Selectman Steve Vavrek to place the creche on the Monroe Town Green. they filled out the necessary forms and insurance guarantees.
St. Jude Roman Catholic Church in Monroe also has two creches set up — one in front of the church and the other by the rectory.
"This creche was bought specifically by the Council for the Green, along with a sign stating that it is owed, erected and maintained by the council and not the town," Donovan said.
A creche, or a nativity scene, includes sculptures representing the scene of the birth of Jesus. Nativity scenes include the baby Jesus, his mother Mary, and Joseph. Other characters from the nativity story, such as shepherds and sheep as well as angels, are also included along with the three wisemen, or Magi.
The creche in Monroe is similar to one purchased by the St. Teresa Council of the Knights of Columbus in Trumbull for the Christ the King Parish.

Living Among Lambs
You are not alone in your struggles. Transition is hard and takes time, but you CAN DO IT!!! This is another battlefield and war you're fighting. The key now is to learn how to fight it: what are your weapons, how do you use them, who/what is your supply & provision. Most importantly in this battle know that defeat is not an option & NEVER EVER give up or quit fighting!
I ran across this picture that a facebook friend and veteran Marine had posted. It was a visual image reminder that made me think of what God showed me about our combat veterans….

|[jira] Updated: (HARMONY-561) Modularise native include directories
|Mon, 05 Jun 2006 16:26:30 GMT
[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-561?page=all ] Oliver Deakin updated HARMONY-561: ---------------------------------- Attachment: modularise.includes.sh modularise.includes.diff To apply these patches, please first run modularise.includes.sh in the root directory of your classlib/trunk checkout. Then apply the modularise.includes.diff patch. modularise.includes.sh creates modules/<modulename>/src/main/native/include directories in luni and archive, and then moves header files from native-src/<platform>/include into their appropriate location. Some files that are not actually being used by more than one native component are moved into their relevant component instead of being shared. modularise.includes.diff patches up the build system to understand the new include locations, and to share the necessary includes at build time. > Modularise native include directories > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HARMONY-561 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-561 > Project: Harmony > Type: Improvement > Components: Classlib > Reporter: Oliver Deakin > Attachments: modularise.includes.diff, modularise.includes.sh > > There has been discussion on harmony-dev about moving the natives into the modules directory [1]. > One of the first steps towards achieving this goal is to move the contents of the native-src/<platform>/include directories into their relevant modules, and alter the build.xml's of those modules to move them into a shared place at build time (i.e. <hdk>/include [2]). > I will attach a proposed patch to make these changes. > [1] http://firstname.lastname@example.com%3e > [2] http://incubator.apache.org/harmony/subcomponents/classlibrary/hdk.html -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira

Kolkata Fashion Walk 2 – My Learning Experience as A Blogger
Kolkata Fashion Walk 2 – My Learning Experience as A Blogger
Kolkata is a city known for the creativity, talent and beauty of the people. Some of the most noteworthy writers, painters, designers and models are from Kolkata. But, why am I talking about such random groups of people? Well, I'm trying to ease into blogging – fashion blogging, to be more specific. The Kolkata Fashion Walk 2, in association with Tribonista, The Swiss Laundry and Pen Twister, was a fun and interactive event organised by for fashion bloggers. And, I was part of this hugely successful event.
Kolkata Fashion Walk 2 – My Learning Experience as A Blogger
After the huge success of the first leg of Kolkata Fashion Walk, the organisers decided to go for it again, this time with more bloggers. And, as a fashion and lifestyle blogger who is always eager to learn, I decided to join in. And, I must say that it turned out to be one of the most enriching and encouraging experiences for me.
Key Moments of Kolkata Fashion Walk 2
The whole day's events brought with it a number of sessions, each of which was special in its own way. I arrived, dressed with a touch of Kolkata, while the city started to get wet in a drizzle.
1) Interactive Session with Key Speakers
Some of the most well-known and talented bloggers in the city addressed the participating bloggers, and talked to them about various aspects of blogging. As I interacted with the key speakers and heard other bloggers share their problems and aspirations, I saw the areas that need my immediate attention.
2) Prop Round
The next round involved a prop activity, in which all the bloggers were divided into groups, each led by a speaker and an organiser. (My team was led by Dolon Dutta Chowdhury from Pout Pretty, while Nikita Manchanda from Pen Twister mentored the group.) And each group got to pick a prop, sponsored by Pooch Box, a new destination for the cutest of products for pets! And we got to use one such pet prop to create a look, and click a whole picture around it! I had loads of fun, turning the one boy in our group into Charlie Chaplin, with a cute bow tie from Pooch Box, as the rest of us posed as his fans! Who cares that my group did not win?
3) Scavenger Hunt
Then began the most interactive, fun and educational part of the event – the Scavenger Hunt. Various clues and descriptions led us to some of the leading fashion destinations, all of which are located in the Elgin Road area. The clues led us 26 locations! Yes, 26 top notch designer stores, boutiques and other fashion destinations – all in just Elgin Road area. I even lost my way! After all the running around in the rain, all the panting, laughing, and rejoicing, I can name some of the must-visit fashion havens in Kolkata, like Geeta Circle, Shree Geeta Square, F Studio, Urban Haat, Ommbre, Simaaya, Siya, Urban Pataka, Pranay Baidya, and so many more!
4) Gifts, Surprises, Certificates, and Selfies
And finally, after several hours that went by in the blink of an eye, the event came to an end. It was finally the turn to announce some winners for the best-dressed participant, the social media butterfly, the winner of the hunt, etc., and hand out the certificates of participation. The takeaway from this round was that bloggers can never be too tired to take some pose and click – though, admittedly, we did it throughout the day!
My Experience in a Nutshell
As I said before, I consider myself a complete newbie, and hence, I am always eager to learn. And Kolkata Fashion Walk 2 was a learning experience for me, from the beginning till the end – starting with thinking creatively to add elements to an ensemble to express oneself, to using simple accessories for an interesting look; from recognizing the amount of hard work it takes to make a self-run magazine succeed, to learning about my own strengths and weaknesses. But the biggest thing I learnt was to have faith in my passion for the art of fashion, and for writing about it.

trail running
Please respect all wildlife and plants. Take only memories and photos, and leave nothing but footprints.
It is a beautiful trail. I loved it
Beautiful. Hard incline for beginners though. :)
good trail a bit crowded on the weekends.
Great little trail. Starts off a little steep for beginners but great to strengthen your legs and Stanama
Pretty steady incline t begin with, then once you're at the top it gets easy. The trail goes from super wide, to a narrow walking path. I think I might use the start for training for upcoming Jiu Jitsu comps.
Easy, short hike.
hiked today and my dog came home with 6 TICKS!! lucky we checked right away. omg!
Very pretty
A nice morning hike.
Not for beginners.
Nice little climb to get you breathing right and then a little loop on top to take in a few sights and then the descent back. Across the road on the bottom is another nice little hike.
I had a pleasant hiked in a late afternoon in July. The weather was dry and with cool breeze so it wasn't hot at all. Trail was short but with scenic views.
Saw this on weekend Sherpa, great views and escape from city. Yes there's tics but also great side trails, flat trails, orchard and vineyard trails, even a pig resort!
Nice dog friendly trail, but watch for ticks.
Nice trail with great views from the top. Go now while the hills are green and walk in the footsteps of John Muir himself!
my boyfriend slipped down cause it was muddy and he had some allergic reaction to mushrooms. it was great 5/5 would hike again. also saw some really big birds from a distance that completely disappeared mysteriously when we got close.
We loved this trail! The views were great and right now everything on the ground was really green. We'll be back.
Nice little trail, great views and a bench on top to relax. Will do it again. Can't wait to do it at night with starry skies.
Great trail with a variety of different little trail off shoot options. Lot's of wild life out on early morning hikes (Deer, Coyotes, Wild Turkey's, Skunks & Birds). Several different benches and picnic tables to utilize for push ups or to relax and enjoy the view. Cool Mt. Diablo sunrise views. Much more scenic in the winter. Caution: With the clay type dirt, when it rains, it gets real slick real quick. Recommend hiking poles in wet conditions.
Good trail for a late afternoon walk/hike. Great view of Mt. Diablo and the Sacramento River from Mount Wanda.
Back for a quick hike. Enough to have the juices flowing. I saw a few trail runners. Good for them! Going up is a challenge. Coming down, a breeze! Better start early in summer. It gets hot.
Mt. Wanda was muddy! but it was gorgeous. We started the day a little late to avoid hiking under a heavy rain. I had my poncho ready but I guess some people just don't hike in rain... The views were good. The climb was nice. The weather improved and cooperated the rest of the morning.
If you're in Martinez, its worth a quick run through

The Rice Alliance for Technology and Entrepreneurship held its 13th annual Energy and Clean Technology Venture Forum September 17th at Rice University with over 460 attendees and 60 innovative energy technology company presentations.
The often mentioned theme this year was $40 crude oil is an opportunity. It forces companies to adapt more efficient, cost saving technologies which increase production. All the companies making presentations had leading technologies to increase efficiency and reduce costs. Productivity was the keynote theme.
There were over 125 investors and venture capitalists present. One investor said that this is an ideal time to invest in innovative technology companies. The industry needs to accelerate the adoption of technologies in this low crude price environment, and the consensus is optimistic for the future.
In fact, Brad Burke, the managing director of Rice Alliance, asked each of six investors on one of the panels what will be the price of crude oil in a year? The first replied $64.33; the second, $50; the third $70; the fourth $55; the fifth $86; and the sixth $75. Point being no one on the panel is expecting $40 oil a year from now.
A representative from In.Acuity noted by 2018, 4.2 million oil company executives will retire and this will have a major impact on the industry.
Another company has a real time data system to monitor fluid in fracking.
One company has a data censoring system to predict pump failures.
There was a presentation on robot boats which will reduce costs substantially.
Infinite Composites Technology has nonmetal storage tanks for high pressure gas which cuts costs substantially.
There were several groups with improved software to increase operational efficiency.

A High court in London has awarded former Delta state governor, James Ibori, a nominal £1( about N400) as damages over his claim of unlawful detention by British Home Secretary Amber Rudd.
She however ruled, in a way that mocked Ibori's claim, that he is only entitled to a nominal £1 of the sum. Ibori had claimed £4,000 in damages.
She said the Home Secretary "failed to have regard to her limits to detain" as attempts were made to claw back millions from the fraudster.
But in rejecting Ibori's bid for thousands in compensation, the judge ruled:
"There is no compensatory loss to Mr Ibori and I fix nominal damages at £1."
Ibori was extradited to the UK for trial in February 2012 and prosecuted on the basis of evidence from the Metropolitan Police. He pleaded guilty to 10 serious criminal charges over the appropriation of massive amounts of public funds during his two terms as governor of Delta State, Nigeria.
He was sentenced in April 2012 at Southwark Crown Court to 13 years imprisonment, and an order for his deportation as a foreign criminal was made in May 2015.9
Ruling on Monday that Ibori had been held unlawfully for almost two days, Mrs Justice Cheema-Grubb said it followed a failure to hold effective confiscation proceedings.
It was in the context of awaiting the making of an assets confiscation order, and likely subsequent efforts to "recoup" a sum estimated to be at least £57m, that the decision to detain Ibori was made.
The judge ruled: "In this case, the secretary of state has been wrong-footed by the failure of the prosecution to achieve determination of its confiscation proceedings against Mr Ibori prior to his release from prison on licence."
