San Juan Capistrano, CA – Today, U.S. Representative Mike Levin (D-CA) announced that the University of California San Diego (UC San Diego) will receive a $39 million grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to improve the integration of renewable energy sources into the power grid. UC San Diego will build a first-of-its-kind testbed called DERConnect that will allow universities, utilities, industry leaders, and other entities to better understand how to integrate renewable energy sources into the power grid. The major driver for the project is the need to decarbonize the electrical grid, protect it from cybersecurity attacks, and make it more resilient "As we work to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat the climate crisis, it's critical that we strengthen our ability to integrate renewable energy sources into our power grid," said Rep. Levin. "I'm very proud that UC San Diego is leading innovative research to allow institutions across the country to better integrate solar panels, wind turbines, and other renewable energy sources in the power grid. I will continue to advocate for federal investment in this research and the world-class climate and energy scientists who call the 49th District home."
"We will be replicating the entire California power grid on one campus," said Jan Kleissl, a professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at UC San Diego and the project's principal investigator. DERConnect will include more than 2500 distributed energy resources, or DERs, on the campus' microgrid, with its fuel cell and solar panels, a dozen classroom and office buildings, as well as 300 charging stations for electric vehicles. It will also entail the construction of a new energy storage testing facility on the East Campus. An upgrade to the microgrid will give researchers real-time control over heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems, lighting, solar panels, battery storage and EVs. The testbed's control center will be housed in Robinson Hall on the UC San Diego campus, which will be turned into a fully controllable building that can be disconnected from the campus' grid at any time. The full project abstract is available here. Leave a Reply. |

"Rooting for the Future." Current, a new website edited by FPR fellow-travelers Eric Miller and John Fea, is now live. Eric describes his vision for the website in his opening essay. Also among the opening slate of essays is "Rooting for the Future" by Susan McWilliams Barndt, a longtime contributor to FPR. She points to data suggesting Americans are moving less often, and she argues that's a good sign: "The longer we stay in one place, the deeper our relationships are—both with the other people who live in that place and with the place itself. The more we see our future as linked to that of our neighborhood or our place, the more we have reason to care for our neighborhood, our place, and the other creatures who inhabit it."
"Seeing Clearly and Making Do." This week I responded to all the responses to my initial essay on the digital public sphere and community: "The state of our digital public sphere is indeed cause for concern. But that does not mean our situation is hopeless. As long as we can clearly see its dangers and imagine ways to make do—with humor and creativity—there remain grounds for hope."
"New Study Shows the Growing Risks of Pesticide Poisonings." Anna Lappé interviews Wolfgang Boedeker and Emily Marquez about a recent study they contributed to regarding the dangerous consequences of pesticide exposure.
"Dana Gioia on Becoming an Information Billionaire." Tyler Cowen interviews the polymathic Dana Gioia about everything from his work at General Foods to the importance of beauty.
"Breakfast at Kim's." Elizabeth Corey articulates the goods of third places: "Third places like Kim's are institutions that bridge the gap between the spheres of Gemeinschaft and Gesellschaft. Neither home nor work, they offer companionship and a sense of solidarity among people who have something—not everything, and not nothing—in common." (Recommended by Jeff Polet.)
"Welcoming Our New Robot Overlords." There is much discussion right now about how to rein in human users of social media, but Adam Elkus warns that we should not expect machines to solve this problem for us:
Primal terror of mechanical menace has given way to fear of angry primates posting. Ironically, the roles have reversed. The robots are now humanity's saviors, suppressing bad human mass behavior online with increasingly sophisticated filtering algorithms. We once obsessed about how to restrain machines we could not predict or control — now we worry about how to use machines to restrain humans we cannot predict or control. But the old problem hasn't gone away: How do we know whether the machines will do as we wish?
"Hard Liberty." Cassandra Nelson draws on Milton and Marlowe to diagnose the hellish form of freedom offered by the Internet: "What remains when laws are abolished is not freedom, but bondage, to harmful internal and external forces that a properly developed conscience would keep in check. And what remains when the concept of rightful authority has been dismissed – as Milton's Satan and Plato's Republic both show, in very different ways – is not equality, but tyranny."
"Martha Lou Gadsden, Luminary of Downtown Charleston Soul Food Scene, Dies at 91." Hanna Raskin remembers a legendary cook and person. The Southern Foodways interview with her from a few years ago is worth revisiting.
"In a Pennsylvania Town, A Facebook Group Fills the Local News Void." Brandy Zadrozny describes how Facebook groups have played a key role in spreading news—and confusion—in a community whose newspaper is shrinking.
"An Unbroken Grace." Fred Bahnson describes his conversations with Barry Lopez in 2018 and reflects on the vocation of a writer: "In the weeks since Barry's passing I've been returning again to his pressing question, the question of service, what he called in Arctic Dreams 'the desire for a safe and honorable passage through the world.'"
"The Woke Meritocracy." Blake Smith writes about the narrative he sees forming his students' sense of self:
What is new about education's turn to woke identity politics is not the fact that administrators and faculty are influencing students' sense of self, but rather the sort of values that the new ideal personality is supposed to uphold. The contemporary ideal, increasingly, is no longer someone so charmingly personable that others forget he is in fact a ruthless competitor, but a person who so convincingly narrates her having overcome some kind of social injustice that others forget she is in fact a beneficiary of systems of privilege.
"Desert Island Books." Inspired by a BBC radio feature, Brian Miller asks a provocative question: "if I could choose only eight books (single-volume titles only) to accompany me in an exile, what would they be?"
"In Praise of Reading Aloud." Ali Kjergaard argues that the pace and intimacy of reading books aloud together makes for a more powerful experience than silent, private reading.
"A Tale of Two Curricula: General Education at St. John's College and the University of Chicago." Brandon Shin recounts a vision of Great Books education and its tumultuous history at two institutions.
"Republicans' Fake Crusade against Corporate Power." Ryan Cooper looks at the recent controversy in Georgia and concludes that "a consistent Republican push against the political power of big corporations is not at present on the horizon."
"The Next New Urbanism." James Howard Kunstler takes stock of New Urbanism: "If we're to build back better, as the Biden regime now says, it better be at a scale consistent with the zeitgeist, which is telling us that the age of giantism is over."

The annual joint meeting brings together the BASHH and the Faculty of Sexual and Reproductive Health (FSRH) at the Royal Society of Medicine (RSM) in central London. It takes place amid the winter sales on Oxford Street and attracts 300 delegates and a waiting list every year. Joint commissioning of STI and contraception has driven demand for integrated services and joint professional development. The usual format is 12 lectures of no more than 30 min each, ideally with time for questions. In 2019, the conference comprised a contraception stream, a sexually transmitted infections stream, complex care in contraception and innovative care including e-testing. BASHH and FSRH standards for remote and online providers of sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services were presented. The programme is developed through collaborative working across both organisations. The feedback from this event is always positive, with 70% of delegates rating the event 'excellent'. Delegates highlighted the opportunities for networking, the range of clinical topics covered …

Here's the new, AppRaisin-derived data:
Here's the source page, in case you want to view the other slides, based on in-app ad display.
Now look at the devices mentioned - 9 of the top 10 used by 'enthusiasts' (think really active users of the ecosystem) are fully compatible with Windows 10 Mobile and all the latest UWP goodness. In fact, a proportion of the 19.6% 'other' devices are also compatible. At worst case (ignoring the 1520 and ignoring 'other'), we still have 75% of active devices in this 'view' either running Windows 10 Mobile or presumably about to upgrade when the user gets round to it. (They've had three months since Microsoft started telling people that the upgrade was ready.)
Maybe I'm making too much of this - but I wanted to put a market in the sand that takes the opposite stance to most other reporting web sites!
AdDuplex is right to point out, in its other slides, that there are huge numbers of users of low end and older Windows Phone 8.1 devices - tens of millions at least. probably in the hands of teenagers and the extremely undemanding. But these have very little influence on the ongoing Windows 'mobile' story* and neither should they. In my opinion.
* For the most part, they're using three to four year old phones and won't ever be able to upgrade to Windows 10 Mobile.
Comments welcome.

It's the most important document in your divorce case: the Balance Sheet. What is the Balance Sheet and how will it help you? This article is designed to make sure you understand how critical the Balance Sheet is when it comes to winning your divorce case.
The balance sheet focuses on valuing, distributing, and dividing all marital assets and liabilities.
Whether you are going through a contested divorce or a dissolution, in every case the Balance Sheet is what the judge uses to determine an equitable division of assets and liabilities—what you get and what your spouse gets.
This is because divorce laws in Ohio will call for property distribution, child custody, and spousal support to be considered throughout your proceedings. To aid in this process, you'll need to essentially lay out every detail of everything you own.
To fairly divide property or account for potential spousal or child support, divorce laws in Ohio also call for a detailed budget. This will cover everything you needed over the last year and will form the basis of your temporary or ongoing spousal support.
To fairly divide property or account for potential spousal or child support, divorce laws in Ohio also call for a detailed budget. This will cover everything you needed over the last year and will form the basis of your temporary or ongoing spousal support.
This means you and your divorce attorney will have to create lists of:
This list is not comprehensive but should give you a good idea of what items you need. You and your divorce lawyer can determine if you need to add to or subtract things from this list.
List all of the marital assets on a piece of paper that is worth more than $500 and put the current value next to each. And remember, marital assets are defined as property purchased/accumulated during the time of marriage. Add them up.
For example, the house – $350,000, your Toyota Camry – $12,000, your wife's 401k – $23,000.
At this time, do not include your personal property such as clothes and jewelry unless the item has a value of over $500 and the value can be proven.
Do not include the IRA that you had before the marriage and that has not been touched since (that is a separate property that should be listed as such).
List all of the marital debts on another piece of paper. Include credit card payments, loans, and debt. Again, do not list debts that you had before the marriage. Add them up.
For example, your Visa card balance owed, a $3400 car loan, your spouse's $2,900 medical bills.
Do not list debts that you had before the marriage (a loan from Grandma for college that you are still paying back is a separate debt and should be listed as such).
Important point: Each asset and debt must have documented proof of their value. That means a statement of account with the current date and value must be provided.
Add the total amount of assets from list one to the total amount of debts from list two. This number is an estimate of the total amount of the marital estate. Divide that number in half. Ideally, each spouse should be able to walk away with at least one-half of the total marital estate.
Next, look at the assets and liabilities and distribute each to one spouse or the other. Put the name of the asset/debt under either spouse's name. Add each spouse's values and compare them to each other.
Is the figure around the same as the number you came up with when you added up list one and list two? If not, why? Is there a good reason?
Try to think of assets or liabilities that are important to you and your spouse. Come up with two or three different proposals that would be "ballpark" fair. That is what a court prefers the parties to do—compromise.
Take your proposals to your attorney and discuss how fair they are and how your proposal could work. If you are having trouble doing this, ask your divorce lawyer or another neutral party to help. Just remember, the more items you and your spouse disagree on and fight over, the longer your case will take and the more money you will have to spend.
As most attorneys would tell you, the law always involves a lot of preparation and a lot of paperwork. The best thing you can do to prepare to win your divorce case is to arm yourself with as much information as possible.
A Balance Sheet should help you get started.

To encourage experimentation with more complex clinical trial strategies, FDA plans to launch a pilot program to assess complex studies proposed by sponsors.
To encourage experimentation with more complex clinical trial strategies, FDA plans to launch a pilot program to assess complex studies proposed by sponsors. At the same time, the agency is examining how innovative statistical approaches may support clinical trials for rare conditions that involve small patient populations.
Issues involved in using complex innovative designs (CID) in drug development and testing was the topic of a March 20 workshop organized by the Office of Biostatistics in the Center of Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) [meeting agenda at https://www.fda.gov/downloads/Drugs/NewsEvents/UCM599228.pdf ]. The conference fulfills a provision of the 21st Century Cures legislation as well as the agreement for implementing the latest version of the Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA VI).
FDA reviewers and research experts from industry and academia examined a range of adaptive clinical trial studies and their advantages in enabling smaller, more efficient research programs [presentation details at https://www.fda.gov/downloads/Drugs/NewsEvents/UCM601630.pdf ]. A main concern is that trials should avoid erroneous conclusions and uncertain estimations. The group also examined the pros and cons of Bayesian applications and broader use of master protocols and platform trials to advance drug development, particularly for treating rare diseases and microbial infections.
The workshop concluded with a discussion on how best to design a CID pilot program to further advance the use of novel clinical trial methods. FDA will formally announce the pilot in the Federal Register and describe how the agency will select quarterly up to two highly innovative trial designs from sponsors to use as case studies for further discussion with agency reviewers. Sponsors have some concerns about disclosing confidential information through this process and are looking for flexibility and creativity from FDA.
Streamlining rare disease research
Another public workshop on utilizing innovative statistical methods and trial designs in rare disease drug development took place March 19, with an eye to issuing further guidance documents on the topic. Convened by the Duke-Robert J. Margolis Center for Health Policy at Duke University with support from FDA, the session brought together rare disease advocates with regulators and research experts to discuss the statistical challenges in conducting studies involving small populations that may be geographically dispersed. Trials for rare conditions are challenging often due to a lack of reliable study endpoints, outcome measures and biomarkers, as well as few natural history studies that often can inform clinical studies.
One proposal on the agenda [see
https://healthpolicy.duke.edu/sites/default/files/atoms/files/rare_disease_public_meeting_agenda_final.pdf] addressed the use of prior data from early trials to inform phase 3 designs. Panels also discussed strategies for utilizing patient registries and natural history study data and for leveraging master protocols [see
https://healthpolicy.duke.edu/sites/default/files/atoms/files/rare_disease_discussion_guide_final_0.pdf]. FDA issued draft guidance in December 2017 on using platform trials to facilitate drug development in Gaucher's disease, and these discussions may support extending this approach to other rare disease areas.

WWE.com has put up their official WWE Monday Night RAW Preview.
Tonight's episode of RAW will be live from Lafayette, Louisiana at the Cajundome. RAW will see stiff competition from the NBA as the Cavaliers playing the Warriors in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.
Below are the Quick Hits they are looking at going in to tonight's episode.
– Will Brock Lesnar bring the pain to Samoa Joe?
– The Hardy Boyz challenge Cesaro & Sheamus for the Raw Tag Team Titles in anticipated rematch
– Who is Enzo Amore & Big Cass' attacker?
– Can Alexa Bliss evade Nia Jax's fury?
– Is Bray Wyatt coming for The Kingslayer?
– Will Dean Ambrose strike again?
On Brock's return to RAW:
You should never intentionally provoke Universal Champion Brock Lesnar, and you definitely shouldn't put your hands on his advocate, Paul Heyman. And yet, Samoa Joe accomplished both of those feats last Monday night on Raw when, in a difficult-to-watch show of force, he viciously locked Heyman in the Coquina Clutch.
The Samoan Submission Machine's message was received by the Universal Champion, who will respond to his No. 1 contender's sadistic attack this Monday on Raw. The juggernauts' Universal Title clash at the debut WWE Great Balls of Fire pay-per-view event is still weeks away, but someone's going to get burned Monday night. Will it be Joe or Lesnar?
On the Hardys WWE RAW Tag Title rematch against Sheamus and Cesaro:
Just one week after losing the Raw Tag Team Championship in a brutal Steel Cage Match at WWE Extreme Rules, The Hardy Boyz invoke their rematch clause against new titleholders Cesaro & Sheamus this Monday night, live on Raw.
Last Monday, The Celtic Warrior boasted that Matt & Jeff were "sitting at home, licking their wounds — Jeff gluing in his false tooth — just dreaming about their rematch." This Monday night, the dream becomes a reality much sooner than the champions likely anticipated.
Can The Hardy Boyz reclaim the titles they won during their triumphant return at WrestleMania, or will Cesaro & Sheamus continue to raise the figurative bar in Team Red's tandem division?

I open-sourced my Nuxt.js blog
I've implemented my new website/blog using Nuxt.js and deployed it on Netlify. Telmo inspired me with his fantastic clean-coded project to create my own. He built the blog telmo.im with Next.js(React) and markdown files. Which is really sexy in my opinion. That's the short story.
In detail, I wanted my personal blog and with zero knowledge about React I looked into Telmo's GitHub Repo like a cow would look into the clockwork. But ok, it can't be that difficult, so I was curious about which dependencies he used and decided for me to start from scratch with a new Nuxt.js project.
Of course, there are some excellent headless CMS that I could use. But I found it a little over the top for a small blog like mine. It was also my wish to write new blog articles with markdown files, which then appear automatically. I chose @nuxt/content for this kind of job.
If you use the Node Package Manager, then can you inject it directly in your project with:
npm install @nuxt/content
Here are some features:
- Blazing fast hot reload in development
- Vue components in Markdown
- Full-text search
- Support static site generation with nuxt generate
- Powerful QueryBuilder API (MongoDB like)
- Syntax highlighting to code blocks in markdown files using PrismJS.
- Handles Markdown, CSV, YAML, JSON(5)
- Extend with hooks
That sounds fantastic to me and is more than what I wanted. I highly recommend taking a look at the official documentation to get the stone rolling. It's the first time I using it, and let me tell you it's freaking amazing. Thank you, Telmo for the inspiration.
You can find the repository here, and if you want to contribute to the project, you are very welcome to open pull requests.
If you want to use my project to code and build your own website, then go for it.
Let's connect
Follow me on YouTube and Twitter. That's where I usually hang out. The other platforms is a nice to have if you are a real webnoob fan ;)

Unparalleled 2
"Whoah, for real?"
"… It's the real thing?"
I was quite surprised myself, but Evan-san and Scott-san were even more surprised than me as they stopped moving, aghast.
"Ah~ but, I see…"
Come to think of it, Allen and Elena said they received the antlers. Then it's no wonder the Crystal Elk was nearby~
""Onii~chan, says we should come over~""
"Go… you mean the Crystal Elk said that?"
""Yeah, that! Let's go!""
With that, the kids pulled me by the hand and we approached the Crystal Elk.
They brought me to the side of the Crystal Elk, but I didn't know what to do, so I just greeted it… and it replied.
We can communicate normally it seems. Probably.
"Erm… the children returned with antlers, but can we really take them?"
"We will put it to good use."
The Crystal Elk squealed and nodded.
Even though it's a sacred beast, it's still a wild creature, but it seems to have a pretty docile personality.
""What is it~?""
"Ku~ ku~"
Allen and Elena hugged the Crystal Elk innocently.
""I see, I see. Is that so~""
I wonder if my kids… holding a conversation with the Crystal Elk? It doesn't feel like a simple mutual understanding~
My children are the children of a God, so they can talk to the sacred beasts, I guess?
"Over there~"
"What's over there?"
"Let's go."
As soon as the children said that, the Crystal Elk started walking, as if it had been waiting for us to follow it.
And before I noticed, the twins were on its back.
After the gryphon, is the Crystal Elk also kidnapping you guys?
"Oi~ do we have to follow?"
"… I see."
Allen and Elena beckoned while turning around.
"Evan-san, Scott-san, you——"
"No problem, Takumi. Go ahead."
"We will follow from a distance."
I called out to Evan-san and Scott-san to try to get their approval to follow the Crystal Elk, but when I called their names, they gave me their approval with wry smiles.
"Nono, why follow at a distance? We should just go together."
They both rejected me at the same time. Their voices overlapped almost flawlessly.
""Onii~chan, quickly~""
"Yes, yes~"
I looked at Evan-san and Scott-san again to make sure they were okay, but they both waved at me smiling. It's almost as if they were saying, "Have a nice trip."
I knew there was nothing more I could say, so I ran over to the kids and the Crystal Elk.
"And so, where are we going?"
""N, you see~ a little further?""
The kids seemed to be conversing with it, but they didn't seem to know where we were going.
"You are not bringing us anywhere dangerous, right?"
""Says it's fine.""
I was assured that there was no danger, so the Crystal Elk quietly led us deeper into the mountains.
""Here?——Onii~chan, we arrived!""
The place we arrived at was a canyon with a narrow river running through it.
""Oh, friends~""
"Whoah, you are right."
There were other Crystal Elks in the canyon beside the one that had led us to them!
"Could this be a habitat? Eh? Are you sure you want to bring us to such an important place!?"
We won't hunt the Crystal Elks, but this is not the place to bring humans!
"Whaoh, what the hell is this!"
""Ohh~ so many!""
In addition, there was numerous Crystal Elk antlers lying around where the Crystal Elk indicated!
""Giving us~?""
""Thank you!""
"No, wait! Seriously, wait for a moment!"
My thought process couldn't keep up.
""Are moving?""
"Ku~, ku~"
""I see~""
Despite my confusion, the exchange between the children and the Crystal Elk continued.
Allen and Elena told me that the Crystal Elks were planning to move their habitat to another place, so they were going to give us, who were nearby, their antlers.
The Crystal Elk seem to know that their antlers are valuable and don't want to give them to untactful people… that's quite specific, isn't it!?
""Onii~chan, isn't that good!"
"Oh, well~… we can't receive all of this, can we…"
I would feel awkward saying, "Yes, thank you." and take this much stuff.
When I hesitated, the children and the Crystal Elk all tilted their heads.
And even the other Crystal Elk around me were tilting their heads!
"… It's not like we can't take it, but."
""Then, we take it!""
Because I couldn't refuse wholeheartedly, Allen and Elena started picking up the antlers and handing them to me.
"This one too!"
"And this one!"
I shouldn't have accepted the first one as quickly as I did.
Allen and Elena continued to mercilessly stuff my arms with the antlers.
"Whoa, wait a minute, both of you! I can't hold anymore!"
"Put it away, put it away!"
"There's still more!"
I quietly stored the Crystal Elk antlers in the Infinite Storage.
Should I have it distributed to all countries through Tristan-sama? The kings of each country seem to be good monarchs nowadays.
"Thank you. I appreciate it."
When I said my thank you again, the Crystal Elk nodded in satisfaction.
After receiving a large number of antlers, we left the Crystal Elk's habitat and searched for a suitable place to camp before nightfall. It was a good thing that we were so close to where the Luminescent Mushrooms grew.
"I'm super tired~"
And as soon as we found a good spot and settled down, Evan-san and Scott-san hung their heads in total exhaustion.

Book clubs... If you'd like Sarah to visit your meeting to discuss Gaijin, either in person or virtually, please contact her via email, firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Japanese word gaijin means "unwelcome foreigner." It's not profanity, but is a slur directed at non-Japanese people in Japan.
Lucy is a budding journalist at Northwestern University and she's obsessed with an exotic new student, Owen Ota, who becomes her lover and her sensei. When he disappears without explanation, she's devastated and sets out to find him.
On her three-month quest across Japan, she finds only snippets of the elegant culture Owen had described. Instead she faces anti-U.S. protests, menacing street thugs and sexist treatment, and she winds up at the base of Mt. Fuji, in the terrifying Suicide Forest. Will she ever find Owen? Will she be driven back to the U.S.? Gaijin is a coming-of-age story about a woman who solves a heartbreaking mystery that alters the trajectory of her life.
Praise for Gaijin
This story of the "unwelcome foreigner" is not an easy one, and it takes an award-winning journalist like Sarah Sleeper to give it the precision, sensitivity, and depth it deserves. The Far East and the Midwest are both on trial as Sleeper investigates the past and present of Japanese-American relations through a haunting, unforgettable story of love lost. Sleeper's prose is full of natural poetry as she explores all the different shades of heartbreak where personal and political intersect.
— Porochista Khakpour, author most recently of Brown Album
Told in lovely prose sprinkled with poetry, Gaijin is a story of love, heartbreak, and self-realization. After traveling halfway around the world in the hope of finding out what happened to her first love, Owen Ota, Lucy must embark on another, more personal quest. A journey of the heart set against the backdrop of a shifting and contradictory landscape.
— Dare DeLano, award-winning author, most recently of Two Cities
Against a backdrop of tea ceremonies, lotus blossoms, haikus, and the gritty reality of the difficult history of American and Japanese relationships, Sarah Sleeper weaves her deftly told story of a young woman's memorable journey toward a greater understanding of the truths that inhabit our complex world. Written with a journalist's eye for detail and a commitment to the truth, Gaijin is an expansive, meaningful debut.
— Karen Osborn, author most recently of the novel The Music Book
A nuanced, subtly written tale that reminds one of those Jamesian cultural clashes between ingenuous Americans and sophisticated foreigners, Sleeper's novel shows us how we are all, at heart, gaijin. A novel particularly relevant in today's highly charged xenophobic era.
— Michael C. White, author of A Beautiful Assassin
In her new life in Japan, Sarah Z. Sleeper's protagonist, Lucy, is a fish out of water, and in over her head at the very same time. A candid, beautifully descriptive map of a young woman's changing emotional landscape.
— Sally J. Pla, award-winning author of The Someday Birds
Gaijin is a captivating story about a young woman's journey to a foreign land to investigate the unsettling disappearance of her Japanese lover. Poetic and exquisite storytelling at its best.
— S. B. Bell, author of The Art of Redemption
Sleeper has crafted a story that shows the various truths that can exist in regards to a place and how they can be contradictory for those who do not truly know a place...If you are looking for a read that shows you how someone's views change through experiences this is a book you should pick up.
— The Nerdy Girl Express
I am not sure I ever in a novel read such a moving description of heartbreak. Perhaps I have red something similar in poems or heard it in songs, but not in a novel. We feel for Lucy.
— English Plus Language

The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has resolved to push ahead with a plan to expand its drone combat weapons system despite the malfunctioning drone that injured two last Saturday on the USS Chancellorsville's last Saturday off the coast of San Diego. The $4 million aerial and subsonic target drone, Chukar (BQM-74E), which was manufactured by Aerospace giant Northrop Grumman, capable of speeds up to 604 mph, had veered out of control during an operation test. Luckily only two sailors out of the 300 crew members aboard the ship were injured after it was struck by the drone. Investigators at the Naval Base were unable to say why the drone lost control and crashed.
This is the second drone crash to occur in the past week after another unmanned craft malfunctioned and came down over Lake Ontario on Tuesday, prompting the suspension of all drone flights in Central New York.
A group of concerned citizens on drone testing in San Diego County, Back Country Voices, holds the FAA, San Diego Military Advisory Board Council, the San Diego Regional Economic Development Corp., and the San Diego Board of Supervisors, accountable to the taxpaying citizens of our County.
We believe our safety and rights to privacy are being targeted by the military drone culture. Where does it end if we don't start holding these official representatives responsible?

The Web Content Style Guide: The essential reference for online writers, editors and managers
by Gerry McGovern, Rob Norton and Catherine O'Dowd (London: Financial Times/Prentice Hall, 2001): 256 pp, £21.99, ISBN 978 0273656050.
Reviewed by Margaret Hunter
Good website=good writing
Oh great, I thought, as I read the first chapter, a guide to good writing for the web that actually puts the emphasis on good writing and the important role of editors. It sets out the main differences between writing for the web rather than print, and shows that all the technological advances in equipment and software can't make up for bad writing.
The second chapter on design seemed a bit weaker, assuming knowledge readers might not have and skimping on detail, but this book is about writing for the web, so I forgave that.
What happened?
But it all went downhill from there. The bulk of the book is an A to Z section that aims to 'codify the rules and standards that make for effective web writing and layout', but I found it disappointing and I got the feeling the book had lost its identity.
The entries are an uncomfortable mix of style considerations and definitions of web-related terms. A glossary would make better sense for the definitions. There are some nuggets of good advice on web writing, but these were buried in the entries on style – most of which were general house style matters rather than good web sense – and I would have missed them if I'd used it in an A-to-Z way rather than reading through the whole book.
I would like to extract the really useful bits and incorporate them into Chapter 1! Points such as making sure core navigation links are meaningful (not 'Click here') and don't extend over two lines to avoid confusion, and the different uses of bold, italic and underline on the web.
Try elsewhere
While the first chapter of this book is a useful introduction to writing for the web, I think there are better resources around. One is Developing Online Content: The principles of writing and editing for the web by Irene Hammerich and Claire Harrison (Wiley, 2002) or, for free, try the Web Style Guide.

Cleansing The Kidneys and Lungs
Dr. William Donald Kelley, D.D.S., M.S.
Extracted from One Answer to Cancer
The kidneys are vital organs of detoxification. They filter approximately 4,000 quarts of blood daily. The metabolic wastes, largely urea, are eliminated and the acid/alkaline balance maintained. Many drugs are eliminated through the kidneys, especially the common pain-killing drugs that can be extremely damaging to these organs. Such drugs include aspirin, phenacetin and acetominophen. People often dont experience any symptoms from loss of kidney function until 90% of the function is gone, and then the damage is irreversible.
The kidneys should be flushed each day with liberal quantities of fluid, either RO filtered water, distilled water or fresh fruit and vegetable juices (preferably organic). Parsley tea is excellent for strengthening the kidneys. Those with kidney problems should avoid ordinary commercial teas and coffee as a beverage. Herbal teas are acceptable.
For those who tend to retain fluid, watermelon is an excellent diuretic. If the melon is organically grown, the rind should be juiced and sipped first thing in the morning and then the red fleshy part of the fruit may be eaten. Two mornings a week, one may take the juice of a whole lemon in warm RO filtered water or distilled water as a diuretic (citrus should not be used more than 2 days a week, as it tends to upset the calcium-phosphorus metabolism if used more frequently). Shavegrass or horsetail tea is a good diuretic and also good for the skin and hair. An excellent diuretic salad may be made by combining cabbage and onions finely sliced with crushed raw garlic, parsley, and herbs like sage, cumin, and juniper berries, if available. Cover this mixture with very hot RO filtered water or distilled water and place a lid over it for 10 minutes. Drain the mixture (the liquid is good to save for soup bases, grains, etc.) and squeeze a lemon over it. It can be eaten as is or refrigerated first. It can also be mixed with other salads.
In extreme fluid retention, ones physician may prescribe a diuretic drug, which is permissible, and the doctor will normally increase the intake of potassium to compensate for its loss due to the drug.
In kidney disease the protein intake should be limited and extra vitamins and minerals taken.
Life is dependent upon the adequate exchanges of gases in the lungs. The most significant are the removal of carbonic acid and the flow of oxygen into the blood. The lungs give off many other gaseous wastes. Sometimes before, but more frequently after the start of Metabolic Medicines Cancer Cure Program the patient or those close to him or her may notice a foul odor on the breath. No amount of toothpaste or mouthwash will remove it for long, since it comes from the bloodstream. One can be assured, however, that this is only a phase and that the poisons are leaving the body.
If there is excessive accumulation of mucus in the nostrils and/or bronchial system, this inhibits the detoxification functions of the lungs. Mucus-forming food should be avoided if mucus is a problem. These are principally dairy products, with the exception of butter and cream, and baked flour products. Anti-mucus foods such as raw onions and garlic, cayenne pepper, freshly ground black pepper, fresh ginger, and horseradish should be eaten liberally.

As I sit here on my flight home to the United States cramped in coach seat 50A somewhere over the Atlantic Ocean, I can't believe the events of the last 10 days. Even if I was an amazing writer (which I'm not), I could never fully express the feelings and emotions that I've felt during this trip. The connections that I have made with family and friends are mind boggling and I cannot express that in words.
Last Thursday Amy and I hopped on a plane to Poland not sure what we could expect. With no expectations or preconceived visions of what might happen, we left ourselves completely open to whatever might come our way during this adventure. I never could have expected to find so many relatives, make so many friends, and find so much information. I can only imagine what might come from this experience in the coming days, months, and years as I correspond with these people and continue to share information and stories. I'm so happy that we took this trip rather than continuing to say "I hope to go to Poland/Lithuania in……" My unsolicited advice, in the words of Nike, "Just Do It!"

Minister for Cooperation, Shri. Subhash Shirodkar chaired a meeting with the Board of Directors and section Heads of Goa Dairy Corporation at Curti, Ponda yesterday and interacted with all the members and listened to their grievances and other issues related to the milk Production in Goa.
Shri. Shirodkar asserted that Goa Dairy has geared up to compete and continue its business, with other upcoming Dairy plants in Goa. To enhance the production of milk in Goa and boost the sale of milk he said Goa Dairy will focus on increasing production of milk and change its marketing strategy. Almost 42 thousands liters of milk Goa dairy is collected from Goan Farmers and supplied in the market per day. There is a huge demand for Goa dairy's milk in the market. People long for milk items like butter, cheese by Goa Dairy, he added.
Demand of Milk will be more during the upcoming festivals, he pointed and stressed the need to enhance production of milk. Goa Dairy has decided to focus on the immediate procurement of milk he said and added milk will be brought from outside Goa too. State level meetings with all the farmers have been planned to motivate and to increase production of milk
He also informed that Goa Dairy has set a target to sell almost 60 thousands liter milk per day till September.

Enhanced signal sensitivity by the use of Rapid Scan (RS) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), a technique that allows for much faster magnetic field scans than traditional field-swept techniques, has facilitated improved data acquisition for many types of samples. For example, irradiated fingernails for radiation dosimetry have been studied using RS-EPR, which resulted in substantial decreases in detection limits. Samarium-mediated reduction mechanisms in organic synthesis have been investigated by RS-EPR providing evidence for a radical intermediate. Spectra of organic radicals exhibiting both narrow lines and closely spaced hyperfine interactions have been recorded via RS-EPR. Well-resolved spectra can be recorded at a rate of 40 spectra/minute to gain insight into molecular changes on this timescale. RS-EPR performed at low temperatures using a closed cycle helium system and a cryostat containing a region with low electrical conductivity provides very wide (>9000 G) spectra free of passage effects near 5 K, expanding the capabilities of RS-EPR.
Recent developments in arbitrary wave form generators (AWGs) provide digital waveform synthesis at high enough frequencies to be used in EPR experiments at ca. 9 GHz (X-band). A new saturation recovery (SR) EPR spectrometer has been constructed with an AWG as the microwave source. Circuit design focuses on implementation of an X-band crossed-loop resonator with a reduced quality factor (Q) to minimize dead time due to resonator ring down processes. Increased accuracy of the AWG instrument relative to conventional sources has made nitroxide spin-lattice relaxation time measurements possible via SR-EPR with S/N high enough to permit separation of electron and nuclear spin-lattice relaxation contributions. These results enabled more accurate estimation of the saturation factor in dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) experiments.

Apple has seized the dayand a riveting Dead Poets Society quotein its newest iPad Air commercial.
Titled"Your Verse Anthem," the 1:30 video (see below) is a beautifully shot showcase of the tablet's capabilities in varying cultural situations, as narrated by a very inspiring Robin Williams.
If it feels like you've heard that speech before, it's because you probably have: Williams first recited it 25 years ago as a means to inspire a classroom full of prep-school students. Now, a quarter of a century later, Apple has recycled the Dead Poets Society dialogue to convince consumers that with an iPad Air in hand, they too can make a difference in the world.
The commercial, which aired during primetime Sunday night to football fans and Golden Globe viewers, received a mixed reaction from those online.
I recommend everyone watch Dead Poet's Society rather than the new #Apple Air commercial or just go read/write some poetry their own.
— Gregory T Stock (@theradiantbaby) January 13, 2014
TV analyst Ryan McGee was a vocal detractor.
Oh hell no, Apple, using "Dead Poets Society" to sell your tablet.
— Ryan McGee (@TVMcGee) January 13, 2014
"Oh iPad, My iPad!" --Dead iPoet's Society
— Ryan McGee (@TVMcGee) January 13, 2014
Others were inspired by Apple's theatrical take on its iPad.
The ipad commercial featuring Robin Williams' dead poet's society speech is glorious
— Brianna Susnak (@briannasus) January 12, 2014
That Dead Poet's Society iPad commercial is so good. Not going to buy one, but it's a great ad.
— Chase (@ChaseKennedy) January 12, 2014
This isn't the first time Apple has lifted the words of another for a commercial. In 1997, the company's "Think Different" campaign launched with the now-famous "Here's to the Crazy Ones" advertisement, featuring historical revolutionaries like Albert Einstein, Mahatma Gandhi, Jerry Seinfeld, Muhammad Ali, and Martha Graham. That ad was voiced by actor Richard Dreyfuss, who read prose originally penned by Jack Kerouac.
Ironically, Williams's new CBS sitcom The Crazy Ones mined the Apple commercial (or was it the Kerouac verse?) for its title.
