Yes, we know; it's a day for women, and by evolution, a day taken over by Feminists. But what is today a Feminist? Is it the Libertarian ideologue of Emma Goldman, or the Leftist ideal of groupthink mentality like WAVAW? Is it about empowerment, or merely to do "right by the sisterhood", and not "shame, and/ or degrade", women.
Are Feminists women only, or do they, as some claim, include transgenders born men, bisexual, gay, ambisexuals, etc?
Can not men be included in their support for women, or is it a day for misogynist women to express hostility for men?
Last week Sofie thought it was right for HER- as a woman, to tweet her appreciation for the support of her husband, PM Trudeau, and his efforts to "level the playingfield"- particularly in making the seats in his Party 50 percent women; "because it's 2017". I get some women- and men- would see this as pandering. Perhaps some women were selected specifically for gender over qualifications- but yes men have similarly benefitted from routinely passing over qualified women to put another MAN in Cabinet.
Perhaps a quota in government works at PRESENT- but when our attitudes become more open to women, gays, and all genders in between, won't quotas in the future become moot?
All that aside- a tweet by a woman celebrating women's day with her family is a tweet about the was SHE chooses to celebrate- by their example of support for the GLBTQ community, it WASN'T meant to be a political message how ALL women should celebrate what is equally THEIR day, as well. In other words, ladies- save your criticisms for the world leaders who brag about the preservation of 19th century dating rituals in public. Though ironically, there are quite a few feminists that complain too, about the lack of 'masculine' males recently. Have men become 'too sensitive' to women, or are we being overfed estrogen in our food supply? Do some women secretly wish that there weren't MORE donald Trumps (and don't get me wrong- I despise him as much as I would if a 19 year old kid had the controls of a high performance car after winning his race car drivers' licence through an election with no prior experience driving so much as a go kart, and showed every intention of not obeying the laws) discuss.

we woke up the next day to a delicious breakfast made by yoshiko :D
then it's off to see the matsuri.
we took a bus all the way back to the station because we didn't know how the bus works, only to go back the same place. because toshogu shrine was just opposite the station near our ryokan (-_-`)
the matsuri seems to be a display of 200 (or 2000?) costumes, and is held once/year (i think). so we were pretty lucky even though we didn't plan for this matsuri on our visit!
we were pretty early anyway, and we had to wait for like an hour before the event starts. now get ready for the onslaught of pictures!
first it started with some plainly dressed men walking around.
then we waited and waited and decided to take pictures of some cute kids
then the same men came out and distributed some twigs (which is supposed to be some omikuji of some sort).
because it was too tiring holding it for so long, denzyl decided to put it on the floor, which as we were told, was forbidden since the twig is some saintly object. (-_-`)
there was already a lot of people by 11+
and then it finally started!
ooh these kids are so cute!! the 12 horoscopes. one of their hats dropped though.
the instruments
and then the omikoshi (portable temples)
everyone was throwing coins into the omikoshi. if you miss, there are kids behind who'll pick it up!
another omikoshi
then when it's over, you can join in at the back
and follow them
to some toshogu rest area
and look at the stuff there.
meanwhile we took a break eating pancakes.
i think one's sweet potato and one's kaya? i don't really know what i was eating.adn went back to join in the fun again.
some cute kids!
and posing with a samurai
i think his armour is like 20kg.
posing with some props
we explored a little more around this area, but i'll put that together with the other shrines later on.

It's Sunday and I never blog on Sunday. But I'm sitting downstairs beside Neil watching golf {he is totally going to be a dad soon} and decided I might as well do a catch up post.
Last week was the last stretch of holidays I have before I finish work in October. We had booked the time off before we found out we were pregnant. Neil cancelled his because he wants a week off once baby is here and I was back and forth about taking them just for myself, but I'm sure glad I did.
I did a lot of cleaning each day. I tried to get a project done and then take it easy. I washed our floors, organized the back closet, put shelf liners in our cupboard drawers, vacuumed our bedroom, dusted, I washed the car and Neil installed new light fixtures.
I also got to visit with my cousin Bailey, Krystal & her kiddos, my aunt Lisa and new baby cousin Olivia and catch up with some old dance friends Kaylee, Jenna, Olivia & Ana. I can't remember visiting with that many people in a week ! It was so nice to catch up with everyone and have no pressure of "I have things to do". I even got to have lunch with Neil twice ! It was a much needed week of get things done that I wanted to, have time to visit with everyone and take it easy before baby comes.
So tomorrow I go back to work and countdown the days until maternity leave starts. It's going to come so, so fast.
Looking forward to getting back to the lake for the long weekend ! The weather better smarten up..

History is vital to our understanding of the world around us and the forces that shape the present and the future.
At A Level, History seeks to answer such significant questions as: What causes civil wars and revolutions? How can individuals come to dominate their own and other countries? What forces bring about fundamental changes in society and politics? To what extent and why have the causes and nature of warfare changed over time? Why do some groups have to struggle to achieve equal rights? History does this through the study of particular events, individuals and developments in British, European and American History.
The prime focus at A Level is on explanation, evaluation and analysis. The study of history aims not only to increase your knowledge and understanding of the key factors that have shaped our world but also to cultivate your ability to think critically, produce coherent and compelling arguments, to research effectively and communicate clearly. That is why History A Level is so highly regarded by both top universities and employers and is considered relevant for a wide range of career paths, from the City to the Cabinet, top management to the diplomatic corps and law to journalism.
History A Level is divided into four modules, two at AS Level and two at A2 Level. This structure permits study of a range of topics and themes over the two years. Topics at AS currently include Tsarist Russia 1855-1917, Britain 1902-1918, and The Reformation in Europe C1500-1564. At A2 one module will examine the theme of The State and the People. It will address change and continuity, and require candidates to show understanding of approximately 50 years of History in both breadth and depth. Subject areas will include The Angevin kings of England; 1154-1215, The triumph of Elizabeth: Britain 1547-1603, The British monarchy; the crisis of the state,1642-1689. The second A2 module will require students to write and submit a Historical enquiry that will test their understanding of 100 years of History. This may be focused on the growth of American civil rights in the 19th and 20th centuries or the development of German nationalism, 1815-1919. Teaching and learning are varied and will help you to develop key skills. There are visits to conferences and exhibitions, and a biannual study visit to Russia.
You do not have to have studied History at GCSE to study it at AS/A Level, but it is a distinct advantage to have done so. It is also important to enjoy reading, discussion and argument.

The world's uncertain foothold in space / Grounded shuttles leave lab's future in the void
Reverberations of the Columbia disaster, certain to be felt for years to come in virtually everything NASA does, have already reached 240 miles up to the international space station.
The fate of the half-built $100 billion orbiting laboratory heavily depends on what happens to the NASA shuttle program. Sixteen countries have a stake in the project, representing virtually all the world's space-faring activity.
Columbia was on its own scientific mission and did not visit the space station. All the other scheduled shuttle missions for the rest of 2003 and 2004 were to transport crew members or hardware for the orbiting outpost.
"Everything is on hold," said Benoit Marcotte, manager of Canada's space station program at the Canadian Space Agency. "The leadership is looking at the options."
Boeing Co., NASA's contractor for the space station, says that most of the heavy structural components have been built. The problem is that some of the biggest pieces -- including a vast array of solar panels and large Russian and Japanese research modules -- are on the ground and await final assembly in space.
Russian spacecraft are serving as a lifeline to Earth for the three crew members now in orbit. Most importantly, a Russian Soyuz is available to retrieve the crew if necessary.
However, only the shuttle has the carrying muscle to complete the space station's lengthy construction phase. The shuttle's rockets are also used to add a periodic energy jolt during docking missions, which allows the space station to maintain a stable orbit.
"The shuttle is really an integral part of the space station," said Elliot G. Pulham, chief executive of the Colorado-based Space Foundation, a nonprofit geared to space-related education and advocacy. "We've got an issue here, and it's a larger issue than the space shuttle."
Long-term construction plans clearly will have to be re-examined in a whole new light, said Peter Bond, space science adviser for the Royal Astronomical Society in London and author of a recent book, "The Continuing Story of the Space Station."
Unmanned Russian Progress vehicles can carry only about 3 tons, he said. That was enough to bring a supply of food and water last week sufficient to keep the space station's current crew, two astronauts and one cosmonaut, safely in orbit through late June.
It's not nearly enough, though, to haul up the large solar panels, trusses and various equipment needed to bring the space station to its final configuration and accommodate the seven-member crew envisioned by planners. The three remaining U.S. shuttles, with their 20-ton cargo holds, are for now "the only vehicle capable of carrying the large pieces," Bond said.
NASA is in the early phase of investigating the Feb. 1 disaster. No clear answers are in sight. But even before a root cause of the accident is known, one thing is clear: The shuttle during re-entry "is much more fragile than we thought," said Buzz Aldrin, the Apollo astronaut and second man to walk on the moon.
Aldrin, now president of a Southern California spacecraft-design firm called Starcraft Enterprises, suggests it may be necessary to redesign the orbiter, perhaps replacing it with one that incorporates an ejection system to give astronauts a way out during lift off and re-entry.
"All sorts of issues are on the table now," Aldrin said. "We are going to fly again, but when we do it must be in a safe, prudent way. The best way to guarantee the end of the space program is to be precipitous in our return to flight, and then have another tragic accident."
Marcotte said there was "plenty of time for us to adjust, and our plan is to continue our integration work" putting equipment together on Earth.
"It's way too premature to talk doom and gloom scenarios," he said.
Considerably less-upbeat comments have been reported from the Russian space agency. And in the United States, some experts are suggesting the shuttle disaster signals a deeper flaw in the whole NASA enterprise than whatever may have directly led to the Columbia's demise.
"We can do a lot better," said Jim Longuski, professor of aeronautics and astronautics at Purdue University.
"We need to step back and ask ourselves, 'What about the larger picture?' " he said. "This is a conceptual problem. The design concept is flawed here because it does not take into account the fact that rockets get destroyed 1 to 2 percent of the time, even in the best circumstances. So that means if you fly hundreds of times, you are going to lose a vehicle."
By his reckoning, it would be a big mistake to simply fix some mechanical defect or rebuild a carbon-copy Columbia to keep the space-station project on track.
Instead, he suggested NASA may need to replace the shuttle altogether, perhaps with two new vehicles: an unmanned heavy-lift cargo vehicle based on an evolved shuttle design, and a much smaller human-rated vehicle loaded with redundant safety systems.
By all accounts it would be a costly setback for a project long plagued by budget controversies. Still, no one is seriously proposing to cancel the whole endeavor just yet.
The world has too much invested.
"The space station has so much momentum, the program will certainly continue," said Richard P. Binzel, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and chief of the planetary sciences division of the American Astronomical Society.
NASA investigators have yet to come up with even a theory that would explain the demise of Columbia, although many suspect the agency may have miscalculated the potential damage to heat-shielding ceramic tiles. It's clear that the orbiter cracked apart during the most intense heat of re-entry, about 3,000 degrees at the wing leading edge.
Until a cause is known, of course, it's unclear what it will take to fix the damage. And so the three remaining shuttles in NASA's fleet remain grounded indefinitely.
If it turns out to be a relatively easy fix, there's a chance the shuttles could be flying again within a year. But there are much more pessimistic scenarios suggesting a delay along the lines of the 32 months it took to resume operations after the 1986 Challenger explosion.
Already, some experts suggest the space station be placed in what amounts to mothball mode, arguing this might be the best way to preserve the project in the long run.
The notion is to maintain the equipment in stable orbit, perhaps with Russian or new European vehicles, and concentrate resources on retooling the U. S. manned program.
"You might see the space station unoccupied for a period of time," Binzel said, although he called this a worst-case scenario.
Some critical aspects are expected to be discussed in Congress as early as Wednesday during a House science committee hearing on the shuttle disaster. A committee spokesman said the implications of the shuttle disaster on the space station was sure to be one of the main topics, even if the central focus of the hearing was on NASA's handling of the shuttle disaster itself.
Some longtime critics of the space station say the shuttle disaster poses a chance to rethink the project. Robert Park, a physicist at the University of Maryland, views the station as a costly impediment to "real exploration" of space using mostly robotic missions and telescopes.
"Both the shuttle and the space station were in a sense technological blunders," he said, "not in the sense that they don't work, but because they don't really take us anywhere."
That doesn't mean the seven Columbia astronauts died in vain, he said.
"The only way that would be true is if we don't learn anything from this. It's an ancient technology. Of course we could build a safer shuttle, but is that what we need to do? It takes something like this, tragically, to get us to re-examine what we're doing."

Jose Mourinho may have won the Europa League, League Cup and Community Shield during his debut season in charge of Manchester United, but he still has plenty more to achieve.
The Red Devils only managed to secure a place in the Champions League last season by winning the Europa League, having finished sixth in the Premier League.
And their failure to make a stern challenge for the title was somewhat disappointing given Mourinho's high regard and the huge arrivals of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba last summer.
GIVEMESPORT will broadcast live coverage of the US PGA Championship on Facebook from 10-13 August. Live coverage HERE
But their ok start to life under the Portuguese last season will be expected to change dramatically this campaign, having spent over £150 million on reinforcements across the park.
Victor Lindelof, Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Matic are three impressive signings that will all be expected to significantly improve their chances of securing a first league title in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era.
Indeed, it won't simply be Mourinho's acquisitions this summer that will make the difference between finishing sixth again and winning the league.
United requiring more goalscorers
Consistency, more goals throughout the United team and fortune with injuries will all be highly significant factors also. However, morale will also be vitally important.
But one of Mourinho's downfalls over the years has been the disharmony that has grown between himself and one or two key players throughout his long and illustrious managerial career.
Most recently, at Chelsea, it was made clear during his final season in charge at Stamford Bridge that a number of players had become unhappy - leading to his dismissal shortly before Christmas.
However, thankfully for United fans, they will no reason to fear that the same could happen at Old Trafford.
Mourinho makes confession
In his pre-match programme notes ahead of the Red Devils' season opener at home to West Ham, Mourinho confessed: "During my long career I have never worked with a group I like as much as this one."
The 54-year-old has worked some of the biggest names in world football down the years, but it appears he has his big star-studded squad all on his side at Old Trafford.
And that will be crucial in a campaign that sees United return to the Champions League and looking to finish ahead of the likes of Manchester City, Chelsea and Arsenal in the title race.
Time will tell if Mourinho really has all of his players singing from the same hymn sheet and buying into his philosophy for the upcoming campaign.

He was the USSR Armed Forces Champion in 1962 and Russian Champion in 1963. He finished equal first at Moscow 1970, and won the 1971 Moscow championship after a play-off. He placed first at Cienfuegos 1972, first at Novi Sad 1972, first at Novi Sad 1973, and equal first at Grand Manan 1984.
In 1976 Lein emigrated to the United States and played on the U.S. team in the 1978 Olympiad.
After immigrating to the United States, he represented the U.S. in several major national and international tournaments, finishing equal first at the U.S. Open and the World Open in 1976 and representing the U.S. at the 1978 Olympiad. Lein was New Jersey champion from 1992 through 1994.
In his prime, Lein was capable of beating anyone in the world. Among his victims were two World Champions, Mikhail Tal and Vassily Smyslov. He also scored wins against such world class Grandmasters as David Bronstein, Lev Polugaevsky, Leonid Stein, and Mark Taimanov.
In the 1970s Lein was a feared competitor in US Swiss tournaments (along with his compatriot ex-patriot GM Leonid Shamkovich). Lein had an imposing presence and was a burly fellow who looked like a weight lifter. During those days, before giving up the habit, he was a chain smoker and I remember seeing him at a tournament standing with his hands clasped behind his back and repeatedly tapping the lighted end of his cigarette with his index finger. These days Lein is retired and lives in a Cleveland, Ohio suburb but still gives lessons.

Protesting against the non-implementation of the One Rank, One Pension (OROP) scheme, four ex-servicemen had climbed a water tank near Jagraon bridge and threatened suicide if their demands were not met. They decided to end their protest later in the evening after assurances from the government.
The men, under the banner of the Sanka Sainik Sangarsh Committee, climbed the tank at 2.30 am. They said they were disheartened at the growing disparity in the pay and pension between the jawan and office cadre. They also want to meet the Union defence minister.
The protesters – Harbhal Singh, Pargat Singh, Kartar Singh and Gurdial Singh – had threatened to jump to their deaths if their demands were not met by 6 pm on Friday. Soon SDM and local police arrived at the spot to negotiate with the protesters. By 6.30 pm, they claimed they were shown a fax from the defence ministry, which agreed to fix an appointment with the minister within a fortnight.
Beer Bahadur, National Coordinator of Voice of Ex-servicemen society, said, "The four had protested in Jantar Mantar from August 23 to September 7. We had a meeting with joint secretary at PMO office on October 11 where they had asked us to give everything in writing yet again. And today we had a meeting at Chandigarh road to apprise all the union members about details of meeting at PMO office, but much before the meeting, they climbed the water tank. We are here to support them."
Nalin Talwar added,"Since 1973 the pay and pension disparity between officers and jawans have been increasing and even if it is corrected, it will take more than 15 years to fill this gap."
The members demanded that the disability pension and military service pension should be equal to all ranks. JCOs and Jawans should be paid 75% of the pension of their last drawn salary, they demanded. They wanted officers to stop asking jawans to do their personal chores.
Meanwhile, a meeting of Ex-servicemen welfare society comprising was held at Bistro restaurant in Ghumar Mandi where Dafedar Harjinder Singh Khera from Patiala had arrived. Khera is on a motorcycle yatra to all parts of Punjab to spread awareness of OROP. Col R.S Sohi (retd), President of Ludhiana Ex-servicemen welfare society said, "The protest by at Delhi is for one and all and Gen Satbir Singh who is leading the protest said that demands of widows, jawans will be met first."

In a move that will make its Spring ABS 2007 have more of an international focus, Information Management Network will be working closely with the International Finance Corp. (IFC) to create a full day of emerging markets coverage at IMN's Miami conference to be held on April 29 to May 2.
The partnership is geared towards exposing conference participants to recent securitization developments in emerging markets - a task that partnering with the IFC would facilitate. Senior-level officials from the IFC will be serving as panelists for a number of the emerging markets sessions. With the IFC's involvement in Latin America, Asia, Central Europe and the Middle East, attendees would not only be able to meet the key players in these local markets but also learn about the ins and outs of structuring and investing in structured transactions in these regions.
Panelists from the IFC include Lee Meddin, deputy treasurer and global head of structured finance for the organization. Meddin will begin the full day of emerging market coverage at Spring ABS as a panelist on the session about assessing investment opportunities in emerging global markets. Other IFC panelists attending the conference are Peter Cashion, who will serve as session facilitator for the panel on investing in the Latin ABS Market, and Laila Nordine, a principal financial officer in the structured finance group, who will participate in the session on Central and Easter Europe. Kevin Kime and Oliver Stier will be part of panels on Russian and the Brazilian ABS markets, respectively.
"I would like to emphasize how pleased we are to have the support of the IFC whose efforts help fund the development in some of the world's most promising economies," said Jade Friedensohn, Spring ABS event coordinator. Friedensohn added that by hosting local issuers that the IFC has invited to the conference, the IMN is introducing them "to new potential sources of capital that will ultimately help fund critical infrastructure and promote the growth of enterprise in these emerging economies."

A few weeks ago, my 2-year old niece took scissors in hand and gave herself her first haircut. Thankfully, my daughter has made it to 3 without ever being so naughty, so I gave myself a little mental pat on the back, snickered a little, and continued to think nothing of letting Sophia use her scissors to make "projects." She does love a good project . . . like mother, like daughter!
Well, I have had my come-upance.
This morning she was working quietly (first clue) on a project in the dining room, and had stopped calling me to come in every 2 seconds to see what she was doing. So I said "yay, I can get stuff done" and didn't check on her. Why would I? My little peanut would never do something so naughty as cut her own hair.
Sophia wandered into the kitchen wearing a shy, and slightly guilty looking, smile, and sporting a little jagged bang across her forehead.
Neither John nor I are such huge fans of bangs, so have never cut one on the Snuggler. Suffice it to say, she'll have bangs for a while before they grow out.
What's that they say? Pride goeth before a fall?
Said scissors have been commandeered by Mama for the forseeable future. And now I'm off to go do a little even up on my peanut's hair.

Below are photos from the Ardbeg Committee Summit on 4/16 at the Bottom Lounge. (Forgive me for aging my photos as I have, better late than never.) I went into the event having enjoyed the Ardbeg 10 and Uigeadail, nothing else. For a scotch brand that considers itself among the peatiest plus having tried the aforementioned, my interest is piqued. And to quote Jim Belushi from Delta House, "Don't cost nothing." Really?!
Outside the Bottom Lounge, this will be a great Saturday
Tasting-From left to right (newborn whisky [aged 1 week], 10 yr, Uigeadail, Corryvreckan, Alligator)
Rachel Barrie (Ardbeg Whisky Creator/Master Blender) riding in on chopper to present the newest addition to the Ardbeg family, Alligator! -- Must be terrible, welcome to the rat race, Rachel!
Open bar, anything and as much as needed. How wonderfully generous, Ardbeg, I love you, major props! A great opportunity to get to know the different Ardbeg expressions.
Pre-release bottle of Alligator-This was the launch event for the upcoming release.
Alligator refers to the pattern of burnt wood within the aging barrels (level 4 charred bourbon barrels) resembles alligator skin. Available in June to Committee members, September for general sale. Absolutely delicious, a sweet taste with a definite burnt edge a few seconds in. I can see this being a permanent addition to my whisky collection.

Mayan Conservationists
We must begin to learn from the mistakes of the past – When the ancient Maya abandoned their forest conservation practices, it was to the detriment of their entire culture.
Ancient Mayans practiced forest conservation 3,000 years ago
Washington, July 27 (ANI): In a new study, scientists from the University of Cincinnati (UC) have determined that the ancient Mayans practiced forest conservation about 3,000 years ago.
Paleoethnobotanist David Lentz from the University of Cincinnati has concluded that not only did the Maya people practice forest management, but when they abandoned their forest conservation practices, it was to the detriment of the entire Maya culture.
"From our research we have learned that the Maya were deliberately conserving forest resources," said David Lentz, a professor of biological sciences at the UC and executive director of the Cincinnati Center for Field Studies.
"Their deliberate conservation practices can be observed in the wood they used for construction and this observation is reinforced by the pollen record," he added.

United States District Court, D. Maine
January 13, 2015
BONNY LOU BUZZELL HUTCHINS, Plaintiffv.FOREST GOODWIN, JR., et al., Defendants
BONNY LOU BUZZELL HUTCHINS, Plaintiff, pro se, BANGOR, ME.
John C. Nivison, United States Magistrate Judge.
In this matter, Plaintiff Bonny Lou Buzzell Hutchins, proceeding pro se, alleges that Defendants have engaged in certain unlawful conduct that has caused her harm.
Plaintiff filed an application to proceed in forma pauperis, which application the Court granted. In accordance with 28 U.S.C. § 1915, a preliminary review of Plaintiff's complaint is appropriate.
Following the review, I recommend that the Court dismiss Plaintiff's complaint, without requiring service of the complaint.
Standard of review
When a party is proceeding in forma pauperis, " the court shall dismiss the case at any time if the court determines, " inter alia, that the action is " frivolous or malicious" or " fails to state a claim on which relief may be granted." 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B). " Dismissals [under 28 U.S.C. § 1915] are often made sua sponte prior to the issuance of process, so as to spare prospective defendants the inconvenience and expense of answering such complaints." Neitzke v. Williams, 490 U.S. 319, 324 (1989); see also Mallard v. U.S. Dist. Ct. S.D. Iowa, 490 U.S. 296, 307-308 (1989) (" Section 1915(d), for example, authorizes courts to dismiss a 'frivolous or malicious' action, but there is little doubt they would have power to do so even in the absence of this statutory provision.").
When considering whether a complaint states a claim for which relief may be granted, courts must assume the truth of all well-plead facts and give the plaintiff the benefit of all reasonable inferences therefrom. Ocasio-Hernandez v. Fortuno-Burset, 640 F.3d 1, 12 (1st Cir. 2011). A complaint fails to state a claim upon which relief can be granted if it does not plead " enough facts to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face." Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570 (2007). " The relevant question ... in assessing plausibility is not whether the complaint makes any particular factual allegations but, rather, whether 'the complaint warrant[s] dismissal because it failed in toto to render plaintiffs' entitlement to relief plausible.'" Rodrí guez--Reyes v. Molina-- Rodrí guez, 711 F.3d 49, 55 (1st Cir. 2013) (quoting Twombly, 550 U.S. at 569 n. 14). Although a pro se plaintiff's complaint is subject to " less stringent standards than formal pleadings drafted by lawyers, " Haines v. Kerner, 404 U.S. 519, 520 (1972), the complaint may not consist entirely of " conclusory allegations that merely parrot the relevant legal standard, " Young v. Wells Fargo, N.A., 717 F.3d 224, 231 (1st Cir. 2013). See also Ferranti v. Moran, 618 F.2d 888, 890 (1st Cir. 1980) (explaining that the liberal standard applied to the pleadings of pro se plaintiffs " is not to say that pro se plaintiffs are not required to plead basic facts sufficient to state a claim").
Factual background
The facts set forth herein are derived from the factual allegations in Plaintiff's Complaint, which facts are deemed true when evaluating the Motion to Dismiss.[1] Beddall v. State St. Bank & Trust Co., 137 F.3d 12, 16 (1st Cir. 1998).
In her complaint, Plaintiff alleges (a) that a tenant of Defendant Forest Goodwin, Jr., entered Plaintiff's home, and stole certain property; (b) that Defendants Teddy and Jeremy Goodwin stalked her; (c) that Defendant Forest Goodwin, Jr., tried to shoot Plaintiff's brother and father; (d) that Defendant Forest Goodwin, Jr., killed wildlife on Plaintiff's property; and (e) that the Goodwin family tortured her and forced her to commit criminal acts.
Although Plaintiff alleges that Defendants engaged in conduct that could possibly serve as the basis for a civil claim, Plaintiff has asserted no facts to establish this Court's jurisdiction over any such claim. " In questions of federal jurisdiction, 'the party invoking the jurisdiction of the federal court carries the burden of proving its existence.'" Satterfield v. F.W. Webb, Inc., 334 F.Supp.2d 1, 2 (D. Me. 2004) (citing Coventry Sewage Associates v. Dworkin Realty Co., 71 F.3d 1, 4 (1st Cir. 1995)). " Federal courts are courts of limited jurisdiction. They possess only that power authorized by Constitution and statute...." Kokkonen v. Guardian Life Ins. Co. of Am., 511 U.S. 375, 377 (1994). Federal district courts have jurisdiction to hear and decide cases that arise under the Constitution and laws of the United States (28 U.S.C. § 1331), and state law claims between citizens of different states, provided the amount in issue exceeds the value of $ 75, 000 (28 U.S.C. § 1332). ...

RT: Request Tracker is a powerful trouble ticket and support system written entirely in perl.
Ganglia is a scalable distributed monitoring system for high-performance computing systems such as clusters and Grids. It is based on a hierarchical design targeted at federations of clusters. It leverages widely used technologies such as XML for data representation, XDR for compact, portable data transport, and RRDtool for data storage and visualization. It uses carefully engineered data structures and algorithms to achieve very low per-node overheads and high concurrency. The implementation is robust, has been ported to an extensive set of operating systems and processor architectures, and is currently in use on thousands of clusters around the world. It has been used to link clusters across university campuses and around the world and can scale to handle clusters with 2000 nodes.
In addition to Mike's talk outlined below, we will be holding elections for SoCoSA board members. There are 5 seats and the board elects offices (like president) from amongst those elected to the board, so if you want to help out with the group, you should send an email to email@example.com nominating yourself for the board.
Mike will be mainly talking about Citrix Presentation Server (now named XenApp.)
Approximate outline:
Citrix XenApp is a Windows application virtualization and delivery system that manages applications in the datacenter and delivers them as an on-demand service to users anywhere using any device.
Regular meeting schedule is the first Tuesday of every month
Open forum discussing SoCoSA's future. Possibly including board elections.
This talk will look at LogMeIn's set of web based remote administration tools and how they can be used for desktop support and remote access in the absence of a VPN. While LogMeIn IT Reach will be the basis for the demonstrations, the capabilities of LogMeIn Free will also be extensively investigated.
Karl became interested in computers at a young age when he discovered that his family's 33Mhz i486SX was capable of playing games. By the time he was 13, Karl had already begun learning about the more technical aspects of the computer he was tinkering with. This was probably most evident the night he accidentally deleted the DOS 6.22 Operating System from the family PC and then desperately tried to use XTreeGold to recover the system before his father got home and discovered what he had done. (Lets just say things did not go well for him.)
Topic TBD.

Dept. of Social Protection - New Control and Fraud Initiative 2014
(Dept. text):
A priority for the Department of Social Protection is to ensure that it pays the right person the right amount of money at the right time. The vast majority of people receiving social welfare payments are legitimately entitled to them. It is important that the Department's resources are targeted at the people who need these most. It is against this back-drop that a strategic approach to combating social welfare fraud was put in place through the Department's Fraud Initiative 2011 - 2013.
A new Fraud and Control Initiative will be launched in 2014. As part of this process the Department is inviting submissions, comments or suggestions. It is intended that the outcome of this consultation process will assist and influence the Department in formulating its next Initiative.
Submission or comments can be sent to email email@example.com, the closing date for receipt of responses is 7 March 2014.

SOURCE: Replacing the Drive Belt
I am not an expert but I do have a Hotpoint 9334 Tumble Dryer which I guess is similar to the 9314.
To replace belt or heater element you must remove the front panel complete with door.
Screws are different sizes in different places so note where they belong as you remove them.
1. Remove 2 screws at rear top which go through the brackets holding the top panel, slide back the top panel a little and lift it off.
2. Pull off the rotary timer knob and remove 2 screws beneath.
3. This is the tricky bit! Remove the the plastic panel which covers the switches etc.. This panel has 5 plastic fingers which secure it to the metal plate behind, locate the ends of the fingers where they pass through the metal plate. Using a metal rod or punch and a hammer, tap the ends of the fingers to push them back through the holes easing each in turn a little at a time to avoid distorting the plastic unduly. (This is a bit scary as you have to hit them quite hard and the fingers look fragile)
4. Open the door and remove the 4 screws then remove 3 screws at the top and 3 screws at the bottom of the front panel. Lift and ease forward the front panel, unhook the door catch release wire, pull off the electrical connectors and put the front panel aside.
5. Lay the machine on its back and remove 1 screw holding the element housing to the top plate and pull off the electrical connectors.
6. Fit the belt around the drum, through the idler pulleys and over the motor spindle.
7. Put it all back together.

SOURCE: hotpoint condenser tumble dryer model tdc30p belt replacement
You will have to unplug the dryer and remove the front panel with the door, mark and remove the wires to the door switch, then there should be two screws on the inside which you will need to remove then tilt the panel out and lift to disengage the tabs connecting it to the main cabinet. Then you should be able to remove the old belt, carefully lift the drum and slide the new belt under it. Then this is where you will need to be a contortionist and take care as there are many sharp edges under there. Locate the motor and tensioner pulley, place the belt around the tensioner and while pushing back against the spring on the tensioner hook the belt to the motor pulley, then move belt on drum so it is aligned with lower pulleys. Turn the drum by hand a couple of times to make sure everything works.

Nine, Ten: A September 11 Story
By Nora Raleigh Baskin
New York: Atheneum Books for Young Readers, 2016.
Grades 5 and Up Pages 197.
Just how can this story be Historical Fiction? All of my middle students were officially not born when the events of 9/11 took place—it is so hard for me to imagine—time passes so quickly!
Nora Raleigh Baskin's new book Nine, Ten: A September 11 Story looks at this event,
two days prior from the perspective of four young children from New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and California who don't know each other –at least not yet! They all have struggles in their lives—absent parent, death of parent, new school, being Muslim and yet the tragedy of 9/11 binds and unites them all in a way the reader will not soon forget!
Anyone who has lived through 9/11 can tell you exactly what and where they were on that fateful day when we watched in horror as first one then two planes flew into the World Centers, one into the Pentagon and the final one into a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Nine, Ten will gently and thoughtfully introduce a new generation to the events of September 11, 2001.

NEW YORK – Chain store sales fell 0.3% in the week ended April 28, according to the ICSC-Goldman Sachs Weekly Chain Store Sales Snapshot released Tuesday.
Year-over-year basis retail sales were stronger, rising to a 4.2% growth rate.
"Sales for the week finished on a softer side as a late Nor'easter moved up the East Coast and cooler than normal temperatures throughout the country cooled overall spending," said Michael Niemira, ICSC vice president of research and chief economist. "For April, ICSC expects that comp-store sales will increase between 3.0% and 4.0% compared with a "tough" Easter?sales?inflated gain of 8.5% in April 2011 when retailers report their monthly sales numbers for April this Thursday, May 3," Niemira added.

Around 5-ish on a lazy afternoon, along the strip of Manila bay.
I caught two kids playing and running around the park, the other one was shouting "i'm mr.muscle-superman!"
He was carrying the branches and he seemed very happy and unaware of the fact that i was there taking a foto of him.
ah!...to be a kid again. ^-^
~ these past few weeks has been a very tiring and busy week for me.
yesterday, instead of staying home like a couch potato.
I decided to go out and take some fresh fotos.
I take it as a form of de-stressing my oh-so-very hectic week.
Now i think i overused the word week. ^-^

Reports suggest that a dressing room spat is emanating in the Real Madrid dressing room, with Cristiano Ronaldo at the forefront.
Real Madrid has got one of the best line-ups in the entire world. There are powerful and influential players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale and Karim Benzema who are under constant watch by millions of fans worldwide.
However, the recent lack of form of Real Madrid in La Liga is not unknown to us either. Right now, the Spanish giants have been struggling to stay in the title race against Barcelona. They are currently trailing behind their rivals with 11 points.
Ronaldo is Being Held Liable
There is an opinion, that the fall of the Benzema, Bale and Cristiano trio is responsible for most of the decline of Real Madrid. This dispute has reached to a point where players like Isco and Marco Asensio are presumably too annoyed.
According to Diario Gol, Real's Isco and Asensio are of the opinion that they should be ahead of Benzema in the team. However, Ronaldo feels that Benzema should continue his role in the starting XI, despite poor form.
Ronaldo and Benzema are said to favor the inclusion of Bale in the lineup when the Welshman is back to full fitness, over Isco and Asensio. This will doubtless be a disappointment for these youngsters, who have been performing at the top of their game.
Therefore, according to these reports, the situation is 'ugly' as Real missed a domestic fixture to compete in the Club World Cup. Also, they face their full-blood rivals Barcelona on Saturday in a game of high guts.
Their morale will, however, be helped by recently lifting a second Club World Cup in 2 years.
Author's Take
This is clearly not a depiction of a good sportsman spirit. The person who deserves more gaming time should get more gaming time. This is how it happens. If Isco-Asensio are more worthy, then they should open the match, if not, then they need to work harder. I think Zidane is there to make sure who gets a shot and who doesn't.
Such issues only hurt a team. Real is definitely in low form if its players have started to fight about their place in the team.

For years now, political demonstrations in Greece involving either extreme left or extreme right groups and organizations turn all too often into ugly, violent displays of ideological faith (which can become deadly when both camps decide to hold demonstrations simultaneously), while the police riot units tend to reserve themselves to the role of mere spectators (depending on who is causing havoc). When they do seek to intervene in order to maintain order, they engage in frenzied, non-organized, spasmodic moves and gestures: releasing indiscriminately tear gas canisters in all directions and cracking a few heads (almost always belonging to demonstrators of the extra-parliamentary left).
Hooded hoodlums with clubs and chains in their hands roam freely among the demonstrators to instigate violence in order to attract the fury of the police, terrorize innocent bystanders and destroy property, but arrests come as rare as rainstorms during the scorchingly hot Greek summers.
That the tactics used by the Greek police riot units in demonstrations are politically motivated is a long held suspicion by people in Greece -- and the evidence is overwhelming that it can't be trashed as yet another conspiracy theory by weird "anti-establishment" characters. Political violence caused allegedly by members of the radical left works as a fine political and ideological tool for the interests of the two main parties, and especially for the ruling conservative party, New Democracy.
On Saturday, February 2, central parts of Athens were converted literally into battlefields as clashes between police, protesters and supporters of extreme right and leftist groups that had organized demonstrations in the same city area (why the police authorities allowed this to happen is not a mystery, as the above explanation would indicate) raged on for nearly 10 hours, producing a type of street level political violence unseen in Western Europe since the tumultuous late 1960s and early 1970s: several people were injured (iron bars, chains, clubs, and knives were witnessed to be in ample supply at the hands of the neo-fascists), inestimable damage was caused to the property of scores of local store owners, and terrified citizens passing by were running for their lives while thick clouds of tear gas covered the air for hours making even breathing a dangerous exercise.
The violence received fairly extensive international coverage and was naturally the top story for two consecutive days on Greek media. What the international media coverage missed, however, was exactly the very element of the story that produced headline news in Greece and made an entire nation cringe -- namely, not simply the accustomed violent outbreak between police and extreme right and leftist groups, but the vicious, well-coordinated attack against the leftists by police riot units in concert with members of the infamous, criminal-like, neo-fascist group "Chryssi Avgi."
The odious alliance between police riot units and a neo-f fascist group which thrives on hate and draws inspiration from the leadership and policies of Adolph Hitler is not an isolated incident as there have been a number of other incidents in the recent past of displayed comradery between certain segments of the Greek police and neo-fascist political elements.
Published photographs showing members of "Chryssi Avgi" attacking, side by side with the police riot units, members of the extra-parliamentary left brought back dark memories of Greece's fairly recent political past where anti-communist hysteria generated close alliances of official state structures (police, military, intelligence services) with parasitic political organizations and led to the brutal suppression of dissent, liberty and human rights, to concentration camps and torture, to a climate of fear and intimidation.
Quite typical by now is the extreme ineptitude characterizing the conservative government of New Democracy, with a prime minister who lacks any leadership qualities and is content with the role of a spectator to emerging crises, police authorities and government officials offered different interpretations for the poor policing of the demonstration and the violence that ensued. Law enforcement officers were blaming each other while government officials said the police had been well prepared. Neither the police nor the government, however, showed any willingness in responding to the public outrage over the cooperation of the police with a neo-fascist group.
Greece's postwar political development is marked by the historical struggle between Right and Left. The right in Greece, as virtually everywhere else, always stood for law and order, authoritarianism and violence, obedience and conformity. The left, though hardly pure in its internal politics, quite dogmatic and bent on factionalistic schemes, was the voice for liberty and freedom, for progress and reason, for compassion and human rights. And, as history has indeed recorded, the Greek left paid a huge price for believing and fighting for those ideals -- just so the country would leave behind its authoritarian past and join the community of democratic nations.
Thus, it is historically offensive and socially dangerous to see today's police in Greece collaborating with neo-fascist elements in open attacks against the radical left. Such an alliance speaks volumes not merely of the underlying ideological nature of the state's oppressive apparatuses but of the direct political proclivities of its agents and functionaries.
In today's political climate in Greece, the ideological cleavages between Right and Left have narrowed to the point it is hard at times to tell one from the other. Both sides are playing by the rules of the game as established in advanced capitalist democratic societies (no violent political and ideological clashes are allowed, parties take turn at ruling and. . . . stealing from the public funds) and even crossing party lines is no longer a taboo. The Greek Communist Party (CP) is still around, still managing to pull close to 8 percent of the votes in national elections, but even its own voters do not see it as a revolutionary party bent upon the demise of the capitalist social order. The CP exercises today the role of a systemic oppositional organization to the great injustices of the capitalist system, but has no political programme of its own and even its political rhetoric is a turn off for those who identify themselves with progressive causes. A host of much smaller parties of the left are also still around, but they operate mostly on the margins of the political system (only one of them manages to get enough votes to be represented in the parliament), and what they hope to accomplish at best is to exert some cultural-based political influence.
The non-mainstream left in Greece consists of very small, highly marginalized, totally un-influential groups which continue to fight the system though their refusal to join it in any political form or shape. Some of them do so through peaceful means; others do so by means that are simply despicable, since they frequently involve mindless violence and destruction of the type witnessed on the streets of central Athens on Saturday, February 2. Such acts are condemned by all citizens and it is the state's responsibility to ensure that the existence of such groups and organizations does not pose a threat to the safety of citizens and to the democratic ethos.
The extreme right in Greece is largely represented by groups such as "Chryssi Avgi." To say that they pose any immediate or direct threat to constitutional democracy would be a far fetched proposition. On the contrary, they have -- and should have -- the right to openly profess their political ideas and beliefs, just like any other political group or organization, as long as they abstain from violence and the use of hate for political aims. The problem is that they don't. Members of "Chryssi Avgi" have embarked on a course of political discourse and action for whom hate and political violence is a way of life. Its members are known to carry knives and other deadly instruments whenever they march and there have been many recorded occasions of stabbings and beatings of their opponents. As such, "Chryssi Avgi" represents a carcinogen on the body of contemporary Greek political culture and the apparent association of sections of the Greek police with this group is a reflection of the road that the political culture of the country still has to travel for the full purging of its authoritarian past.Chronis Polychroniou is a professor and head of Academic Affairs at Mediterranean University College, University of Teesside (UK) in Athens, Greece.

Alara Reborn – Time Sieve April 15, 2009Posted by Norm in Alara Reborn, Spoilers.
Tags: Alara Reborn, magic, Magic: The Gathering, Spoiler, Time Sieve
I knew for Alara Reborn to be awesome it was going to have to pack a lot of cards and abilities that really up the anti for the block. So far I've been impressed with a number of cards. After viewing today's spoiler card I am once again in awe of Esper.
I have a feeling Esper is going to be a force and while the ability cost isn't cheap this card is really going to mix things up. Time Sieve probably has the best chance of any card in recent history of becoming broken. While taking an extra turn doesn't mean you'll win the game hands down it does help you set up a number of things while your opponent can only sit and wait. I can't wait to see what good things are in store for this card.
- 1. messels - April 16, 2009
need to have a sharding sphinx or something to help build up the artifact count…or something? the cost is really steep. but very cool.
- 2. Gemini6Ice - April 16, 2009
Esperzoa + Minion Reflector?
Puppet Conjurer?
- 3. MaxAstro - May 9, 2009
Hm. Time Sieve + Mir Incubater in an artifact heavy deck is pretty much end game.
Not to mention Animate a Nuisance Engine and Followed Footsteps it; heavy on the mana cost but you could keep the turns going for quite a while. I'm sure there are easier methods I'm not thinking of (isn't there a Mirroden card that turns creatures into artifact creatures en masse? That with any token generation…). This card is sick…
- 4. Jeff - August 3, 2009
rings of brighthearth + elsewhere flask + kaleidestone +Howling mine +borderposts +open the vaults + time warp = win.
- 5. Sean - April 16, 2011
I just bought four of these for my casual deck. Think an artifact heavy deck with modular creatures, and Disiple of the Vault. Sack the creatures for an extra turn and 5-20 damage to opponent. Move the modular counters to another creature. Now what at first seems like the drawback is now a useful ability.

I found this article I wrote years ago and thought it would encourage us Mamas, who are so in the thick of it, to not forget the bigger picture. Put your whole heart into being a Mama, it is so worth it!
The little boy in the story, Joshua, our third child, is now seventeen! He is a sweet and tender young man. He loves God, His Word and his family. We are so thankful for his servant's heart. I am humbled by the magnitude and honor of this calling of being a Mama. It's a little long, but I think you will find it worth the time.
My day begins at 6:00 a.m. My husband comes into our room to wake me up. He gently encourages me out of bed, ushers me into the bathroom, sticks a toothbrush in my hand and starts the shower for me. I shower, put on my face and start fixing my hair. It is now 6:30, I make my way to the living room. I grab my Bible and notebook, and sit down to some time alone with the Lord.
By 7:15, my one year old Isaiah (now 11) is awake, I get him some juice and he sits with me for a few minutes when my two year old Victoria (now 13) comes requesting her juice and her spot on my lap.
It is now 7:30, I wake my eleven (now 21) year old for his "quiet time" that we are ever so gently trying to encourage.
I take the two little ones in the bathroom with me, placing them on the counter, one on each side of the sink. As I finish my hair and face for the day, I have two little ones staring at me as I look in the mirror. I struggle to get done before someone touches my hot curling iron, pokes their eye out with one of my make-up brushes I have given them to keep them quiet, or one of them falls off the counter while trying to stand up. Finally, the last spray of hair spray, the last curl of the eyelashes, I'm done.
I place one child on each hip, bring them to the kitchen, throw some dry cereal in front of them and go wake up the their brothers, Luke, age eight (now 18) and Joshua, age six (now 17). They are not thrilled to be awakened, but I try to keep a smile on my face and encourage them out of bed and hurry them along so we can stay on 'schedule'!
From eight until nine, they eat breakfast, forget to take care of their bowls, lose sight of what chores are to be done next, almost always annoy someone, and usually someone starts crying. During this same time frame I am finding it increasingly difficult to be nice and to tolerate laziness. I cry out for wisdom on how to train and discipline each situation. All the while, there is an intense battle with my flesh and my spirit, and my flesh is winning. Usually by nine o'clock someone has been spanked or yelled at.
By 9:15 we have made it through, have repented for bad behavior and are sitting down for Bible time and prayer. As I wrestle with the one year old, and hold back from sending the two year old to just watch TV, we read the story, practice our scripture memory and pray for our day.
Now it is 9:30, I no longer resist the urge to send my two year old to watch TV, only '"good" shows mind you.
The three older children get their books and sit down at the dining room table. And on a good day, they start their work. I put the baby down for his nap, Yeah!
By 11:30, they are done with most of their school work. We usually make it through unscathed. It is now lunch time. We eat lunch, the baby has gotten up, and I have rescued Victoria from the TV by now.
After lunch they go their own way for awhile. I catch my breath, tend to the little ones needs, answer many questions, change diapers, sit on the floor and tickle toes and bellies and enjoy the giggles.
Today instead of history or science, I put the babies to bed, send the older kids off the play Legos, (they are educational you know). I grab a cup of hot cocoa with marshmallows and take advantage of the quiet for some time with Jesus.
By three o'clock the tears are streaming down my face because of the love of God, His mercy and His grace. My six year old Joshua walks in and sees me crying and asks if I am okay. I take advantage of this time to love on him, my middle child, and like a flash of lightening I am immediately reminded of last week when he asked if he had Jesus in his heart as I was answering the phone. Tears welled up in my eyes as I realized I never answered his question. I asked him if he knows if Jesus is in his heart, and he says "no".
We read some scripture and I asked him if he would like to ask Jesus in his heart. He says enthusiastically "yes". We pray a simple prayer and by the end of the prayer Joshua is crying. When I ask him why, he says "Cause Jesus is really in there now".
Of course I am weeping now, and we just embrace and cry and revel in the presence of God. I am amazed at His mercy and grace, how He leads me and reminds me. I am humbled by this incredible experience. The older boys come up to find out what is going on. My oldest runs downstairs to make a poster with the time and date that Joshua was saved. Also on the poster it says "welcome to the family, God's family" and "there is a party in heaven today." I am overwhelmed with joy and the realization that this is what it is all about.
The endless days of things never seeming to change, the frustration of wondering if anyone is 'getting it' and many shed tears are all worth it if the children that God has entrusted to our care turn their lives over to Him and begin that journey of a redeemed life.
Obviously every day is not like this, and this is not even a typical day in the life of our family, but I share this day to encourage you and to encourage me. This is why I am here, this is His purpose for my life, God has created me to love, serve and lead these precious souls to our Savior! I am forever grateful for this opportunity to raise Godly warriors for the Lord.
It is so worth it ladies, so worth it! Your work will be rewarded! I have no greater joy than to see my children walking in the truth.

If we put the sensationalism and hyperbole of Al Gore aside and look at some facts, it just might be that the hysteria of Global Warming may have been the result of a lot distortions, and maybe, not realities.
When Al Gore assembled his thesis on Global Warming, his movie titled The Inconvenient Truth, he used the hurricanes of Rita and Katrina as evidence of Global Warming. To Al, those hurricanes were an ominous warning of things to come. In the lead into that movie, Gore claimed that the "frenquency and intensity of hurricanes" would result from Global Warming. The only problem with Al's "inconvenient lie" is that we have had some of the quietest hurricane seasons on record since Rita and Katrina. In fact, some of the southern states, which are normally inundated with rain from hurricane activity, are in the midst of a severe drought.
It seems like a lot of evidence is being released lately, to indicate that Global Warming isn't all that Al Gore seems to think. In fact, we just might be entering a period of Global Cooling. Maybe, even, the beginning of an ice age!
One such evidence is the fact that the massive ice sheet has returned to Disko Bay in Greenland (See Full Story). In the past, the waning ice in Disko Bay has been used by the warming alarmists as a significant indicator as to the health of this world. It has been used as a disastrous indication that the world ice is melting and the coastal areas of the world are doomed to permanent flooding.
Another strange fact is that January saw some of the coldest temperatures in the world over the last hundred years (See Full Story). It snowed in the Middle East for the first time in a century. Japan and China had rare snowfalls this Winter. Places in North America have also had record snows. For example, Madison, Wisc. had over 100 inches of snowfall and could see even more before this Spring is over. February continued the non-warming trend of January with temperatures that were about average for the last 100 years. Temps were not, as would be expected in a Global Warming environment, warmer than normal.
Another fact that has recently come out is that the world-wide warming trend may have actually plateaued since 1998 (See Full Story); a fact that was actually acknowledge by the United Nations organization on Global Warming, the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change). With no surprise, the national media,,and alarmists like Al Gore conveniently don't talk about that. Of course, if Global Warming is a result of man-made carbon emissions, and those emissions have risen at a higher rate over the last 10 years, it makes sense, scientifically or logically, that warming should have risen (not leveled off or fallen) over the last ten years. Doesn't it?
If you had read this excellent Washington Times commentary by H. Sterling Burnett, (See Full Article) you would see that the whole statistical justification of Global Warming is in question. The whole "hockey stick" graph of earth's warming comes into question. And, this commentary echoes a lot opinions by world scientists who believe that Global Warming and its strict relationship to man's activities might be "a lot of hooey" (a technical term that I like to use for man-made Global Warming).
The latest question mark comes as a result of the findings by 3000 undersea robots that have measured deep sea temps around the world. Those robots found no warming since they had last conducted any measurements. (See Full Story). This head-scratcher, too, is inconsistent with the belief that we are in the midst of a disastrous warming of the Earth.
One problem that has always existed for the Global Warming Chicken Little's is the fact that our whole Solar system is in a warming trend (See Full Story). Places, without humans, like Mars, are seeing warming that is consistent with the warming here on Earth. Many scientist believe that the current warming trend of the earth is a result of the sun's cyclical sun-spot activity. In fact, the Russian Academy of Scientists believes that we may actually be entering an Ice Age as a result of a slowed solar activity (See Full Story).
Recently, Al Gore told 60 Minutes that skeptics of man-made Global Warming are the modern equivalent to those who believed that the earth was flat (See Full Story). Gore has also always claimed that those scientists who deny man-made global warming are being paid by those corporations whose self-interest is served by not curbing their polluting habits. Al Gore seems to think that the nearly 22,000 scientists who have signed on to the Petition Project in Opposition to The Hysteria over Global Warming must all be in the "tank" for money. Of course, Al, himself, isn't. Just because he's making millions in speaking engagements, doesn't mean that "he" might have a profit motive in keeping Global Warming alive. Now, does it?
The initiatives to combat Global Warming will have the harshest effects on the poor around the world. I would hope that people like Gore get it right by being truthful with the facts before we punish those who have the least to give in this world. It just seems that what I have outlined (above) is being ignored for what might be purely political and left-wing ideological reasons. Further, our actual ability to control global warming or any global weather condition may well be beyond our true capabilities as mere humans. Global Warming might just turn out to be another one of those "fears" that the left-wing politician, with the help of the news media, wants to hoist onto the public so "their" ideological beliefs of "greening" the planet can be fulfilled.

I ran the following version of Hour of Reckoning:
Baldur the Stonesoul
* Megalith
* Woldwarden
* Woldwatcher
* Woldwyrd
Celestial Fulcrum
Druids of Orboros w/Overseer
Shifting Stones w/Stone Keeper
Shifting Stones
Lord of the Feast
Brian ran this:
Goreshade the Bastard
* Reaper
* Slayer
Bloodgorgers (10)
Mechanithralls (10) w/1 Brute Thrall
Mechanithralls (6)
Necrosurgeon & Stitch Thralls
Satyxis Raiders (10) w/Sea Witch
Withershadow Combine
Gorman di Wulfe, Rogue Alchemist
Pistol Wraith
Skarlock Thrall
Warwitch Siren
I didn't take any pictures until the very end, after I had already assassinated Goreshade. I'm a little annoyed with myself about this because I think they help show the Battle Report much better than just words alone.
Terrain had a ruin on the far left side from me with a forest in the center leftside. In the center of the board was a hill and a forest in the center right in front of my deployment zone. To the right were two walls with a building between them. The picture at the end will better show this!
Brian won the roll to go first. He deployed the Bloodgorgers and Pistol Wraith on the left. Going across the center from my left to right was the Reaper, Mechanithralls w/Brute (with Necrosurgeons behind), Slayer, Goreshade and Deathwalker, Skarlock, and the other Mechanithrall unit. He advance deployed the Satyxis Raiders in front of the Bloodgorgers.
I deployed my Celestial Fulcrum centrally because of Advance Move and due to not knowing how he'd deploy. To its left I deployed my Woldwarden and to its right I deployed Baldur, Megalith, and the Woldwyrd. The Shifting Stones w/Stone Keeper and Lord of the Feast get deployed on the left to deal with the Satyxis and Bloodgorgers. The Woldwatcher goes in the center to hold the line, the other Shifting Stones 5" in front of Baldur to teleport him forward, and the Druids on the far right to hold the flank.
Turn 1:
Brian - He runs everything forward. He did cast Shadowmancer with Goreshade.
Travis - I use the Lord of the Feast to charge into the Satyxis Raiders he moved forward, using a corpse counter from one of the Satyxis to use the raven to get farther into the unit. They make their command checks. The Stone Keeper uses his magic AOE attack to kill the Sea Witch. The Fulcrum also shot at the Satyxis and end up causing a massive casualty check which they fail. Everything else advances forward with Counter Magic and Roots being cast a lot.
Turn 2:
Brian - Runs everything into very close range casting Mageblight to cancel a lot of my spellcasting. Baldur is in the spell area. Gorman di Wulfe tries to kill the Lord of the Feast and does only 2 damage. The Satyxis fail to pass their command check.
Travis - Lord of the Feast murders a bunch of Bloodgorgers and Gorman before teleporting into the Mechanithralls and Necrosurgeons. A lot of the Mechanithralls in the center die to Crevasse from a Woldwarden after it backed out of Mageblight. The Druids of Orboros backed out too and Devoured 5 of the other Mechanithralls as well. Baldur retreats back 4 inches out of Mageblight, feats and places a Rock Wall in front of himself while within a Shifting Stone unit.
Turn 3:
Brian - The Reaper charges the Lord of the Feast and kills him dead. The remaining Mechanithralls w/Brute charge the Woldwryd and almost kill it (4 life left). The Warwitch Siren manages to get a venom off from outside the Counter Magic zone and kills two Druids. Nothing else really has range to attack anything. The Slayer moved up within 2" of Goreshade. Goreshade also feated bringing his Bane Thralls into play but they didn't do anything. Goreshade also recast Mageblight.
Travis - I sacrifice my Woldwyrd to free strikes to allow the Fulcrum to kill the Mechanithralls. This allows my Woldwarden to charge the Slayer for free. I boosted all three attacks rolls to Chain Attack: Smite the Slayer across Goreshade. The Shifting Stones teleport Baldur to within 2" of Goreshade. Baldur starts attacking, Goreshade dies.
|Final setup
Baldur's Theme Force also has a lot of counters and abilities to handle a wide variety of lists. I look forward to more test games.

Swimming the DB2 Pools - Understanding and Tuning DB2 Storage (A14)
Topic: 2007 EU
Subtopic: DB2 for z/OS
SPEAKERS: William Miller (CPT Global)
DB2 contains different memory areas known as pools - RID Pool, EDM Pool, Sort Pool and Buffer Pools. DB2 uses these storage areas for different tasks during SQL processing. This presentation will help clear up the water about the memory pools by explaining what these pools are and how DB2 uses them. It will give you an understanding of how DB2 uses its internal memory. With this knowledge, you will be able to make your system as well as individual SQL perform better.
EXP. LEVEL: Beginner,Intermediate
The participants will understand how DB2 uses the EDM, RID, Sort and Bufferpools for internal processing of application SQL. Other pools and caches used by DB2, and how they are used will be described along with the commands to use them.
Bufferpool tuning is, in large part, made up of assigning objects to different pools. We will cover bufferpool tuning. This consists of identifying the objects that belong together together with the bufferpool parameters that can be set
A couple of the pool types (EDM and Buffer) have thresholds. We will discuss what these thresholds are, and what kind of performance implication this might have. It is key to identify the performance degrading threshold events.
IBMs memusage tool formats IFCID 225 output. This describes the memory usage of your DB2 system. This presentation explains how to use it, and how to interpret the results.
Page fixing is new in v8. We will explain what it is. Page fix is not appropriate for every bufferpool. A methodology to find the appropriate usage of pagefix will be shown. Real-life examples of page fix and its effects will be presented.
