Hi all, I suspect that some of you reading this might not know about "This Friggin' Guy!," an irregularly posted interview column here at HT:P! Herein, we ask three silly questions and then two serious questions, and we post the answers basically unedited along with a poorly photoshopped image of the subject's face on a ridiculous background. Ok.
So Jon Fishman let me interview him about Bernie Sanders for this column.
All I'm going to say about Jon Fishman is that he is an absolutely brilliant guy and I wish I could just post our whole conversation here, because I learned a lot of cool shit. You know who the fuck he is, he's the drummer in Phish, he's an incredible artist and an extremely accomplished and genuine man. Also, I should note that I stopped asking questions at a certain point, so the format is a little loose this time around. And so, without further ado, I give you:
This Friggin' Guy: With Jon Fishman!
Marry/bang/kill: The sandworm from Dune, Wicket the Ewok or Bowser from Super Mario Bros?
I've never played Super Mario Brothers. I think that I'd marry them all, Id bang them all, then I'd kill them all. Do all three!
Actually, I think I'd just kill them all. I wouldn't want to just kill them for no reason. That's a tough one, it's a lot tougher than I thought it would be.
How come we didn't see you at Aunt Emily's family potluck this summer?
Oh, family. I probably was out campaigning for Bernie Sanders.
Tell me: how are empires built?
Aren't entire PhD theses written on that? Empires are built initially, I think, from belief in a vision. That somehow, somebody or some group of people are able to articulate a vision that enough people buy into that it starts the ball rolling. And then somehow that's sustained over time - and I imagine that's where there's a lot of both good and bad in human nature that keeps that ball rolling. I mean, to build an empire the initial vision might have been nice, but to actually bring it to fruition, i guess it actually requires a lot of charismatic people to keep it growing and inevitably - and I guess this would address how they fall too - it's a pretty mixed bag of characters that keep that vision going. And like anything that is successful there is no class you can take to deal with the success. It seems that somewhere along the line the focus goes from building a vision to then maintaining it and somehow the fear of losing all that you have built comes into play and people start to flail around being worried about losing something. And that inadvertently becomes the crumbling.
The empire then turns in on itself because everybody is thinking in terms of fear. It's like that saying, "the only thing we have to fear is fear itself." I mean it seems like such a simple thing sort of almost childish or too simplistic but when you really think about it really does boil down to the essence that if we are all just sitting here afraid that we're going to lose all of this and we're just so focused on that, then that becomes the vision. The vision of losing is what becomes the vision. And then everyone starts behaving in a way that actually plays into that rather than getting back in touch with the vision that made the thing successful in the first place - like having a wonderful society that is in balance.
I don't think it's unique to America in the historical sense. I think that we've seen this a lot of times in a lot of societies throughout the ages.
The difference is, in a democracy, at least ideally, if it is "we the people," and by the people then that is a little unique compared to Greek or Roman civilizations along the way. It's not like the general population had a whole lot of control over whether or not one vision or another was going to get fulfilled. And then there's cases in which, like the French Revolution, people had to take thing over and things really had to crumble and they had to behead their leaders. And so we have a fairly unique situation in that this society is idealistically set up to be our society. It's supposed to be our call. Which is why the anti-big government movement confuses me. The funny thing to me about that is - I agree with that sentiment if the government is run by corporations that are buying all the votes of all the congressmen and senators and the whole thing's bought and paid for and our voices are cut out of the process. Well yeah, sure, I agree with that, get rid of big government. But if big government in the context of America is able to be maintained as the ideal it was set up to be, which is a government made up of us, of people that we vote for, and are put into office because "we the people" want these people to be our representatives. And if they represent their constituents accurately, then there should be no problem with big government because we put it there to organize things on our behalf. And if we have the power to remove those who aren't doing their job well, then that should work and we shouldn't have a problem with big government. We should then like that we have the Department of Education and the EPA and all that stuff.
But all these big corporations over time have weaseled their way into the whole process and now it's not our voice. And those representatives are not the people saying what we put them there to say. I understand then why the manipulative among them can turn to the people and say, "Oh well, your EPA and your Department of Education are really screwing you." The only reason they're screwing you is because they're not doing what they were set up to do because elected officials are not doing their job. Because they're being paid by corporations and are doing the corporations' bidding instead of ours.
So big government ought to be good because we put it there to do the work we wanted. Somebody like Bernie Sanders is that guy, who is that rarest of rare things - which, I think that there probably were way more of in the earlier days of our country - he's that rare politician in today's world who actually does his job. The way it was set up by the constitution to be done. And we voted for him, he laid out a vision which we all loved (and I'm talking as a constituent of Vermont). He came to Burlington and he said "the waterfront shouldn't be corporate executive housing, the waterfront should be a big park for everybody to enjoy." Well, the town liked that idea. They voted him into office as an outsider from Brooklyn even though everyone said that would never happen.
For 30 years, in Vermont, I've watched that same argument be made about Sanders over and over. This guy from Brooklyn, who doesn't even bother hiding his accent, he's gonna come in here - and Vermont was pretty well known, just like in Maine, for not voting for outsiders that much. And, look, you should look at the substance of a person, you shouldn't vote for or not vote for someone because they're 'from away' or from here, you should vote for them because you're listening to what they're saying and you either agree or disagree. And you should be colorblind in that way.
So he laid out this vision and people are saying, "oh, he might be from away, but you know what, I really like what he's saying I'm gonna give him a chance," and they gave him two years and after those two years they gave him another six years. And he didn't get voted out of office, he moved on to congress and then moved on to the senate. And each time, he laid out his vision and the people said geez, we really like that, and lo and behold, the guy actually went and lived up to what he had to say. He did his job. He lived up to that vision. He said, this is my vision, and this is what I'll do if you vote for me. And he did it. He did it without taking a dime from any of those corporate interests which have corrupted things. He's given people his vision, and they've agreed with that, and they've sent him to do that job and he's done that job on their behalf, diligently and unwaveringly the entire time. And in so doing has also very many times had to take positions that were politically not popular. This is a guy who was writing in defense of the LGBT comm in burlington in the 1980's at a time when that was considered political suicide. In a rural, rednecky state of republicans.
He said look we all need to live together, that's part of the democratic process. We may not all agree, but there's got to be room for all of us here. And the heart of who he is as a human being came through, and I think that it spoke to people who, even though they may have had very strong feelings against homosexuals or whatever, I think he's that rare person who, his integrity of character is so intact, that the people who may have had different views from him on social issues had enough respect for him as their legislator that they said, "Ok, he's right about
that and we'll make room for everybody here." That alone is such a testament to his character that he could take these politically unpopular stances along the way and have constituents who disagree with him still support him. Because they trusted him so much as their representative on the things they agreed with. They weigh what their priorities are and it's not such a big deal for them to support gay rights as long as senator Sanders is doing his job on all the other stuff that they do like. I think that just brings people around and it makes their hearts grow and their hearts expand - it's like the Grinch thing it's like their hearts start to thaw and you think, "gee this isn't so bad, it's not like society is gonna fall apart because there's gay people or because we take care of the homeless a little better, you know." And I love what senator Sanders has always said about that - it's easy to beat up on the poor, it's easy to scapegoat them and he's so disgusted by that. And all that stuff is all fear stuff - the whole "be afraid, everyone's gonna be taking advantage of you," well it's our tax dollars and if we put Bernie Sanders in office he'll do with our tax dollars what we want him to do.
I want nationalized health care. Who wouldn't? It would be great if there wasn't a profit motive in our healthcare system.
What I would say [to the struggling artists and musicians who read your blog] is: listen. I am a rich rock star who could be sitting on his ass at home with his wife and his five kids not giving a shit about this process either. If there's anyone who doesn't have to give a shit, it's someone like me. You other poor artists who are struggling and who are getting defunded and have people like LePage running your government, trying to cut everything that would help you along, I've made it through that tunnel and I've come out the other side the better and I could be an island to myself doing nothing. But I have been a constituent of Bernie for 25 years - we will never see a candidate like this in our lifetime again. Sanders has spent a lifetime getting to where he is now and his credibility to what it is now. The opportunity to vote for somebody like this doesn't come again. I think the last time someone this good came along was Lincoln or Garfield. This is Lincoln level good. He's Mandela level good. He's a truly good man. You don't have to take my word for it. I understand. I am in fact as disenfranchised and as disillusioned by the political process as you are. Clinton, Trump, to me I can understand how you would not be motivated to vote for either one. Personally, I get it. I don't know that there's much of a difference to me. I feel like we have been handed that situation time and time and time again, where you feel like you're voting for the lesser of two evils or you vote for someone really good and they don't turn out to be who you thought they would be. You're sick of being disappointed.
To some degree it's like Stockholm syndrome. I understand why young people, when they hear someone scold them for not voting, "if you don't vote then you don't have the right to complain," that voice sounds to me like the voice of someone who has Stockholm syndrome, someone who is defending your abuser. You go ahead and vote and you think it will make a difference, either way, whether you get Clinton or Trump, either way it's a fast track to World War III, four years from now we're going to get the same pile of shit. I get that.
I totally agree. If it were not for Bernie Sanders running, I would not be sitting here saying "you need to pay attention." This is an exception. You've been lied to, you've been beaten down, you don't want to vote. I get it. Neither do I . I don't want to vote for Clinton, I don't want to vote for Trump. I get that. You can't be so beaten down that you close your mind and your eyes to the whole thing and go to sleep. You have to recognize when something of quality goes by. If we let this guy go by and we don't get off our asses and at least take a look at him... don't take it from me. we live in the information age. You do not have to listen to my dumbass rockstar opinion. I'm just a drummer in a rock band. I'm just a guy, a citizen like you who lived in Vermont for 25 years while he was mayor and congressman and senator and i'm telling you that this is a person who, when they say they'll represent something they'll go to the mat for it. I'm not saying he's gonna wave his wand and all of our problems will be solved. But his tone and presence will raise the bar for everyone that comes after him and the vision and the layout for America will be something we can all feel much better about. I think if he gets voted in, two years from now we'll see for the first time in 50 years the midterm elections go to the same party as the president. That he will be able to keep all of us engaged enough that we'll be so proud of what he's doing and the position he puts us on a global level, the respect we get as a country with him as a leader, that we're going to see some Sanders endorsed candidates in the midterms, some younger people running for these offices and get these scumbags out of there. And I've seen this happen. I've seen this happen in the Vermont house. But here's my point. What do I say to you? I say to you that we live, in the information age. You don't have to take it from me. Go on youtube. Search Bernie Sanders and Alan Greenspan. Search Bernie Sanders on Iraq. Search Bernie Sanders on gay rights. Search Bernie on any topic and you can find footage of him talking about it over 30 years - same thing. Consistency over time is the formula for success. Consistency over time flushes out the criminals. Bernie has been standing for this stuff the whole time, he's meant it, he's been fighting for it. He has stood up for gay rights, veterans, he was against the Iraq war.
Racial equality. Religious acceptance. Diversity. Look up anything. Just look at the guy, don't listen to me, don't listen to the mainstream media, go look at him talking, himself. When you see what you see, I'm telling you that I've watched him fight for these things for 30 years and I'm testifying to the fact that he is as honest as the day is long.
Isn't that worth a look? Just look. Don't listen to me. Just look. Just look at what he says.
I have nothing to gain. Why the hell would I come down here and get off my rich ass and stand in the freezing cold, and say please pay attention here. Because it's the political equivalent of getting to draft Wayne Gretsky or Michael Jordan out of college. It's better than that. This is an extraordinary human being. Especially at this point in our particular political position, that this person is even available for us to vote for is a miracle. It's a once in a lifetime thing. It's a game changer. He's not lying when he talks about revolution in the best sense of the word. Peaceful revolution. We've been disillusioned and beaten for so long. He's a one issue candidate - the issue is us. That is true. But his big issue is getting rid of Citizens United so that endless amounts of invisible money aren't available to candidates and we get money out of politics, and go back to the types of regulations we used to have like the Fairness in Communications Act. If it weren't for Facebook and Twitter and social media nobody would know that guy exists. If you think that we're going see another Sanders in our lifetime without even more horrific struggle... if the people who are shitting their pants right now, who are afraid for their wealth and greed, afraid that this guy is gonna be president and make them pay taxes they're supposed to pay and hold people accountable and clean up our political system and get the money out, they are going to do everything they can - if they narrowly miss getting Sanders in there, the Koch brothers and their ilk will spend the rest of their lives doing everything they can to get the same kind of control over social media to prevent this from ever happening again. It's terrifying. They're already trying to do it.
If we pass up on this guy, sooner or later that social media is going to get the same tilting of the playing field that's going to block out critical voices along the way and those critical voices are our voices - it's the people that want to control everything that will have more success and that's something to be concerned about. I have five children. I don't want them growing up in that world. I take it back, I do have a vested interest. I do have five children that's why I can't sit on my rock star ass at home because I have kids who will grow up in a world either left behind by Sanders or left behind by others. Our society is being hollowed out.

Episode 50 - June 9, 2017
We begin with the big news from the Braves: Sean Newcomb will make his major league debut. Of course, this is because Bartolo Colon is going on the DL after some disastrous starts, and we have some thoughts on that. We also take time to praise Mike Foltynewicz and the bullpen. The offense is fine, and largely we think Dansby Swanson is coming around. All of which leads us to discuss the future in some very calculated, multifaceted ways. One of the great things about the Braves' system is that it's so deep, no one has to be rushed. It also means everyone has a variety of paths to the big leagues, all of which we consider for Brett Cumberland, Ronald Acuna, Kolby Allard, Dustin Peterson, and Ozzie Albies.

Conversant in contemporary theory and architectural history, Stan Allen argues that concepts in architecture are not imported from other disciplines, but emerge through the materials and procedures of architectural practice itself. Drawing on his own experience as a working architect, he examines the ways in which the tools available to the architect affect the design and production of buildings.
This second edition includes revised essays together with previously unpublished work. Allen's seminal piece on Field Conditions is included in this reworked, revised and redesigned volume. A compelling read for student and practitioner alike.
Introduction: Practice vs. Project Part 1: Drawings 1. Constructing with Lines: On Projection 2. Notations and Diagrams: Mapping the Intangible 3. Terminal Velocities: The Computer in the Design Studio Part 2: Buildings 4. Mies' Theater of Effects 5. The Guggenheim Refigured 6. Le Corbusier and Modernist Movement Part 3: Cities and Landscapes 7. Urbanisms in the Plural 8. The Thick 2-D: Mat-Building in the Contemporary City 9.

A New Threat?
With coverage of ISIS and global terrorism dominating the nightly news, ordinary Americans have been inadequately exposed to the rise of another military threat to the United States: China.
While China has challenged the economic dominance of the United States for years, no thanks to Beijing's effort to devalue the Yuan, it was not until 2015 that the most populous country on earth demonstrated the potential to either lessen American influence in East Asia or attack us directly.
While continued American presence in the region has certainly aggravated China and it's neighbors, the military threat China poses stems more directly from a long-time territorial dispute in the South China Sea. Since the turn of the twentieth century, China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Vietnam, the Philippines and Brunei have taken turns laying claims to the sea's mineral rich deposits, as well as ownership over key trade passages, which together generate more than five trillion dollars in annual revenue.
Last year, China's shift toward a more aggressive approach to the dispute raised a series of red flags for the United States. In an effort to secure the South China Sea and establish a maritime sphere of influence, China began building a series of artificial islands, using them as military bases, complete with fighter jet hangars.
In building these military bases, China violated the Philippines' Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), infringing on Manila's sovereign rights. Since the United States is a treaty ally of the Philippines, China's encroachment on Philippine territory can be understood as an indirect attack on U.S. influence in the region.
With this new escalation in militarization, China has additionally lessened the supremacy of the American Seventh Fleet, the preeminent military force in the region, in the eyes of U.S. and Chinese allies alike.
The threat of a direct attack on U.S. forces in the region, however, is also plausible. This summer, the International Court of Justice ruled that most of China's claims to the South China Sea have no legal basis. Following the decision, anti-American protests, some of which called for war against the United States, broke out in Beijing. While an all-out war with China seems far-fetched, small naval skirmishes most certainly do not.
Thankfully, China has yet to resort to military action. Instead, the nation has rejected the court's ruling and redoubled its island building efforts, a calculation that resembles the U.S. naval strategy in the nineteenth century.
To counter China's actions and influence, the United States has implemented Freedom of Navigation operations, sending warships and patrol aircraft since October 2015, as part of a muscle-flexing maneuver in the region.
Nevertheless, China is determined to do whatever it takes to write its own navigation rules in South China Sea, including the setting of "red lines" for neighborhood countries. Recently, China warned Japan to "not send Self-Defense Forces to join U.S. operations that test the freedom of navigation in the disputed South China Sea."
If not stopped, China may reach its ultimate goal of denying foreign access to the South China Sea altogether, damaging U.S. influence and, potentially, U.S. ships.

I finished Jo Walton's Farthing and immediately located the next in the series (Ha'Penny) across town in a St. Paul library and read it in one day. It's difficult to explain how haunting these books are - these days when politicians use hatred as a tool to gain power. It's been done before, by experts.
Now - to find the third book.

Our callER engine scans through millions of calls capturing and analyzing, in real-time, signals in conversational data ranging from speech rate, comparative talk time between agent and customer, up to positivity, arousal, openness… just to name some of the attributes being tracked.
This builds up to an augmented emotional intelligence that can help the salesperson understand themselves, their customer and prioritize their next actions in order to achieve their goal. The sale.
A prospect's initial reaction when getting a call from an unknown party is instinctive – fight or flight. A successful cold call will immediately disarm the fight or flight response so you can set the stage for success. Behavioral Signals has developed technology to help your sales team get better at disarming this critical fight or flight response.
Once your sales team has disarmed the fight or flight response in a cold call, they need to set the stage with the right tone. The tone can vary depending on who you're talking to and what you're selling, but establishing leadership in the call with the appropriate tone is one of the most important expressions of emotional intelligence in sales. Behavioral Signals can provide the tools necessary to improve this important skill.
Just as in a game of poker, prospects have tells – micro-expressions of truth that are often difficult or impossible for people to hear-see on their own. Behavioral Signals utilizes the latest AI technology to uncover these tells and help you focus on the pain points that really matter to the prospect so you can drive higher deal sizes and close deals faster.
No one wants to sit through a boring sales call. Successful salespeople know that generating interest and capturing attention is fundamental to winning business. But how, exactly, can you capture attention and interest in your prospects? Behavioral Signals can provide tools to help you understand what drives attention in prospects most, and how you can bring it to your customer base to close more deals.
Responding to an objection from a prospect is all about getting on the same page and helping them see things the way you see them. Studies show that the best way to help people see things the way you see them is by building rapport with the prospect and engaging them in language they instinctively understand.
Behavioral Signals can help you understand how to build better rapport with prospects and use this build a stronger pipeline.
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but
people will never forget how you made them feel." – Maya Angelou
Behavioral Signals, Inc. can help you ensure every single customer interaction ends on a positive tone, so your customers always remember the way you made them feel great about working with you.

text: I always seem to get coupons in the mail for Victoria's Secret that expire before I get to the mall. With Valentines day this month I received more than usual and I decided to give them away. Over the weekend I visited my local store and gave away five coupons for various things (free this, free that, 20% off, etc) to different customers. It was pretty easy to guess who shops there regularly, and probably has the coupons as well, so I approached those that seemed out of their element and looking for gifts. It was really fun! People are so surprised and delighted with even such small acts of kindness. It really makes their day and hopefully they pass it on.

6:50 PM | Very heavy rain moves in tonight and this significant rain event continues into Thursday
Paul Dorian
Very heavy rain is likely over the next few hours as numerous showers and thunderstorms have developed along a strong cold front that is slowly working through the Mid-Atlantic. This front stalls to our south and east tomorrow and allows for tropical moisture (remains of Lee) to ride up and over the cool air mass on Tuesday and Wednesday and some of this rain will fall heavily at times. Temperatures on Tuesday will be confined to the chilly 60's along with the rain and there will be a cool breeze as well. Up to 5 inches of rain may fall in many Mid-Atlantic locations during this early-to-mid week significant rain event by the time it winds down on Thursday and this will likely renew flooding issues in many spots.

January 31, 2018
I am pausing from "The Body" series. However, this writing goes with the main purpose of the series.
I heard a powerful sermon this past Sunday and I wanted to share it with my own thoughts. The sermon was about how we are weapons handled by God Himself. The main scripture reference was Jeremiah 51:20.
Jeremiah 51:20 – "You are My battle-ax and weapons of war: For with you I will break the nation in pieces; With you I will destroy kingdoms…
That in itself was enough to encourage me in my walk but I read what came before.
Jeremiah 51:11-19 – Make the arrows bright! Gather the shields!The Lord has raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes. For His plan is against Babylon to destroy it,Because it is the vengeance of the Lord, The vengeance for His temple. 12 Set up the standard on the walls of Babylon; Make the guard strong, Set up the watchmen, Prepare the ambushes. For the Lord has both devised and done What He spoke against the inhabitants of Babylon. 13 O you who dwell by many waters, Abundant in treasures,Your end has come, The measure of your covetousness.14 The Lord of hosts has sworn by Himself: "Surely I will fill you with men, as with locusts, And they shall lift up a shout against you." 15 He has made the earth by His power; He has established the world by His wisdom, And stretched out the heaven by His understanding. 16 When He utters His voice—There is a multitude of waters in the heavens: "He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; He makes lightnings for the rain; He brings the wind out of His treasuries."
In reading this passage it is imperative we know what is in our hearts. With the political climate as it is (at least here in the United States of America) it has become too easy to point the finger at those who have differing opinions than those we have personally voted for. I don't know about you, but Holy Spirit has been convicting my heart as I read passages like this because too often (in the recent past) I have had a person or group of people in my mind. We must all remember just as Holy Spirit reminded me…
Ephesians 6:12 – For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
We must also remember that it is God in us that helps us accomplish this. Though we are His children, we are also His weapons to be used when His timing is right. This relates to "The Body" series because if a weapon is not in good condition to be used then it needs more time to become ready. Weapons need to be checked regularly, maintenanced regularly, and ready when He that wields the weapon is ready to use it.
There is more than one weapon that can used at a time in warfare. The greater the arsenal, the bigger the victory. We have a duty to be ready in whatever capacity God Almighty created us to be used at whatever time He designated us to be used. We also have a duty to pay attention and be obedient to Him and Him alone so that we (The Body of Christ) can become THE force on earth He desires and created us to be for the full purposes of His Kingdom advancement. With our individual preparation comes the tools to help prepare other weapons. It is only the God-Head that knows when and where any weapon or weapons (us) will be used and how.
God's design is eternal. That means it already was, already is, and always will be. Making these vessels ready (in obedience to Him) to be used however He has already purposed it includes us knowing how He designed our natural bodies to operate. Knowing how our natural bodies intricately operate can show us a picture of how The Body of Christ is to operate. Gaining understanding of these allows us to be more co-hesive and less divisive. With that unity we become the greatest arsenal in the natural realm as well as the spiritual realm. We are His weapons against the enemy. We are His weapons of love stored in His arsenal when He is ready to use us because we have allowed ourselves to be properly prepared for whatever the task may be.

Unhappy Singapore travellers say they would rather avoid blacklisted airports than be forced to check in their laptops, tablets and other large electronic devices.
Reacting to restrictions imposed by the United States and Britain on flights from certain airports in Turkey, the Middle East and North Africa, travellers here said the ban does not make sense.
The airports affected by the US ban include those in Dubai, home of Emirates; Qatar, where Qatar Airways is headquartered; and Abu Dhabi, where Etihad Airways is based. All three carriers are popular with travellers, including those from Singapore who travel long haul to the US and Europe.
Polytechnic lecturer Gary Ho, 42, who visits the US three or four times a year, said: "It is utter nonsense and really makes me wonder why we bother with all the security procedures already in place. They already make you open your bag, take out your laptop and sometimes turn it on, so what is the point of all that if it cannot detect wrongdoing?"
Mr Sim Kok Chwee, 56, who works in the logistics sector, said: "We should be focusing on upgrading security equipment and processes to enable more effective checks instead of inconveniencing travellers like this.
"Laptops and other such equipment are not cheap, and if you have seen the way checked-in bags are sometimes thrown around, you would not want to check them in. On top of that, there is always the risk of theft. So who will be responsible?"
Associate professor of communication Banu Akdenizli of Northwestern University's campus in Doha said the ban would affect her ability to work during a 20-hour flight to North Carolina for a conference next month. She told The New York Times: "I think, as an academic or any business traveller, the function of a work flight is to be able to work on it."
Like it or not, the new restrictions will have to be followed, experts said. For those travelling from Singapore to the US or Britain via the affected airports, laptops and other affected gadgets must be checked in at Changi.
A spokesman for Qatar Airways said it has started informing passengers at Changi about the new rules when they check in.

Most gems result from the cutting and polishing of precious or semiprecious stones. Only one type of gem is created naturally by a living animal: the pearl.
Pearls form as solid masses when matter accumulates inside the shells of certain types of bivalve (two-shelled) mollusks. Saltwater pearls are formed from pearl oysters. Pearls of different oyster species vary in color and size. Examples of pearl oysters include the Akoya pearl oyster (Pinctada fuacata), the white-lipped oyster (Pinctada maxima), and the black-lipped oyster (Pinctada margaritifera). The iridescent inner portion of the shell is composed of a substance called nacre, which is commonly known as mother-of-pearl.
Freshwater pearls are produced by several varieties of freshwater pearl mussels. One of the most commercially important is the Triangle Sail Mussel (Hyriopsis cumingii). Another variety with historical significance, the Freshwater Pearl Mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera), was especially noted for the quality of its pearls. It is currently listed as an endangered species.
Natural pearls form randomly and rarely. Today, most commercially available pearls are cultured. The culturing process instigates the formation of pearls through controlled conditions whereby a piece of shell is used to create a nucleus around which a pearl will form. Pearl farmers insert the nucleus into an appropriate host bivalve, typically a mussel or pearl oyster, to instigate the formation of a pearl. Cultured pearls should not be confused with imitation pearls, which are created from man-made substances, such as glass or plastic, and sometimes coated with mother-of-pearl.
Pearl-producing oysters are not related to the type of oyster commonly consumed as food. Edible oysters belong to the Ostreidae family of bivalves, within which there are five major genera: Crassostrea, Hyotissa, Lopha, Ostrea, and Saccostrea. The common European Oyster is Ostrea edulis, and the oysters of Chesapeake Bay are Crassostrea virginica. Although edible oysters can occasionally make small, irregular pearls, they are not valued as gems. Ostreidae shells are comprised of calcite and lack the necessary compounds to create the luster associated with gem-quality pearls.
Pearls have been worn as jewelry since antiquity. One Hindi legend tells the story of Krishna giving his daughter a pearl. A Chinese story dating from the 23rd century BC mentions strings of pearls. During the first century BC, pearls were worn by Roman nobles. The Bible mentions pearls in both the Old and New Testaments.
Pearl is one of three gems identified as a birthstone for the month of June. The other two are moonstone and alexandrite. Moonstone is part of the feldspar family. It comes in a variety of colors and displays an optical phenomenon known as adularescence, which creates an illusion of movement. Alexandrite, a newly discovered gemstone, was first discovered in the Ural Mountains in the 1830s and named for Tsar Alexander (1818-1881). Alexandrite changes color based on the source of lighting. In daylight, it appears green or blue-green, but under incandescent light it appears red or purple.

Mental illness is becoming more diagnosable and prevalent in today's society, yet it is still considered taboo. Our question is, why?
A mental illness is not usually a disability that can be prevented. It can also affect people at any age and of any race, religion or income. They aren't the result of personal weakness, flaw in character or upbringing, and yet many people are outcast and displaced because they live with a mental illness. This would be like outcasting someone with cancer or diabetes. These people can't prevent their illnesses just as much as a person with a mental illness can't, but those diseases are far more socially acceptable.
Mental illness is widely misunderstood, so the general public tends to be afraid of the individuals who have this type of ailment. Thus, they shun people who are considered to be mentally ill. Unfortunately, the people who live with these illnesses are the ones who need the most support.
Serious mental illnesses include autism, depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and borderline personality disorder.
The Whim staff feels that our society would be healthier if we were able to easily accept what a mental illness means, instead of just brushing it under the rug.
The National Alliance on Mental Illness defines mental illnesses as "medical conditions that disrupt a person's thinking, feeling, mood, ability to relate to others and daily functioning. Just as diabetes is a disorder of the pancreas, mental illnesses are medical conditions that often result in a diminished capacity for coping with the ordinary demands of life."
If more people understood that with support these people would be better able to function then it would be easier for everyone to live happy and healthy lives.
We also think that if mental illness weren't such a taboo subject, then people wouldn't be so afraid of being diagnosed with one. Thousands of cases of depression and panic disorders go undiagnosed every year because many people do not want to be associated with the disease and they don't want their peers to think there is something wrong with them. This reaction could potentially be dangerous to the disposition of those going undiagnosed. Untreated depression can, in some cases, lead to suicide and substance abuse. Untreated panic disorders can lead to fear of public situations and anti-social behavior.
The National Institute of Mental Health recently reported that one out of every four adults experience a mental illness every year; that's about 57.7 million people a year. It doesn't just influence adults either. The U.S. Surgeon General reported that 10% of children and teens have a serious emotional and mental disorder that causes "significant functional impairment in their day-to-day lives," and it affects their lives at home, their work in school and their relationships with peers.
There are all kinds of resources that are available to people who think they may be living with a mental illness, and those people are usually the ones who need the most help but are instead told to "get over it." A mental illness is not something to just get over, and it cannot be overcome by willpower alone. We, as a society, need to step up and lend a hand to those in need instead of standing in their way.

DeMint's Midterm Gambles Raise His Political Profile
For an incumbent trying to keep his seat, South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint seems a lot more focused on the campaigns of Sharron Angle in Nevada, Marco Rubio in Florida and a half-dozen other Republican candidates around the country.
DeMint's political action committee, the Senate Conservatives Fund, has already contributed more than $2 million to candidates who meet DeMint's conservative criteria. ("We support only those candidates who believe and will fight to restrain our government, so you and your family can live free, independent and prosperous lives," DeMint says in one video.) A spokesman for the fund says they are shooting to raise $5 million by November.
So far, some of the most surprising Republican primary victories of the midterm election season have been helped along by DeMint. And while he's little known outside his home state, this election could make him a conservative star -- and for that he can partly thank his unlikely opponent.
DeMint's doing very little of his own campaigning and wouldn't agree to an interview for this story because, well, as political scientist Scott Huffmon explains: "DeMint feels ... that he's probably cruising towards re-election. I think most of the country has learned about Alvin Greene, the Democratic nominee for Senate, and the controversy that it's caused."
Greene is the 32-year-old unemployed military veteran with no organized campaign, a pending felony charge for obscenity and a knack for giving awkward interviews to the media -- like this one a month ago when he promised to end the recession:
"That's what I'll do. That's what I will do," he said. "Because I have real plans. And my opponent has nothing!"
But DeMint did have a 42-point lead over Greene in one recent poll. So, Huffmon says, DeMint's got time and money to spend on something bigger.
"This'll absolutely make DeMint a power broker, a kingmaker within the Republican Party, to the degree that he is successful," says Huffmon, a professor at South Carolina's Winthrop University.
Here's the risk: The candidates DeMint is backing fall to the Republican right -- more in line with the Tea Party movement. Most ran against chosen heirs of the Republican Party establishment, and DeMint waded right into the primary fray. So if DeMint's picks lose in November, party-establishment types are likely to blame him for pushing unelectable Tea Partiers onto the ballot.
Colorado is one of the states where DeMint placed a bet. The Senate Conservatives Fund spent more than $300,000 to land Ken Buck on the victory platform instead of the candidate favored by Senate Republican leaders. Now the fund is aggressively soliciting donations for Buck's general-election bid, bypassing state and national Republican Party fundraising efforts. In essence, that's draining money from the party's own pockets, Huffmon says.
"That again is setting up potential conflict between the establishment and Jim DeMint," he says.
But Dick Wadhams, chairman of the Colorado GOP, says DeMint's efforts aren't in conflict with the state party.
"More importantly, I think Sen. DeMint is going to be ... helping to elect some great senators across the country," Wadhams adds.
And boosting his own profile, too?
"I assume so and that's fine with me," Wadhams says.
A spokesman for DeMint says the senator didn't come to Washington to make friends. But his efforts to get conservative darlings elected could give him a built-in class of freshmen senators who owe him big.
And when you're a kingmaker, who needs friends?

A premium five-unit development is tapping the demand for luxury apartments close to downtown Queenstown.
Located off Frankton Road, beside Oaks Club Resort, James Lloyd Apartments will be an easy walk to the CBD, either alongside the highway or via the Frankton Track.
Providing uninterrupted, panoramic lake and mountain views, the three-bedroom apartments are also designed to be amongst the resort's most luxurious units.
Touches include a highly-specced open-plan kitchen, floor-to-ceiling tiled bathrooms, schist feature wall with an in-built BBQ on the balcony off the living area and double garage.
Each apartment also has central heating that can be operated from your smartphone.
The floor areas are about 211 square metres plus a balcony.
They're being developed by the property's Christchurch owner, who has extensive business interests.
And they've been designed by award-winning Rohan Collett Architects, also from Christchurch – on his Facebook page, the firm's principal says he gained resource consent in May "after 1.5 years of fighting … endless Resource Management Act red tape".
Four of the apartments are selling for $1,995,000.
The fifth apartment, which might be larger, has still to be priced.
Construction's due to start early in the new year, with completion late 2017 or early 2018.
Local New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty sales associate David Penrose, who's marketing the complex, says he's had tremendous interest already from NZ and offshore buyers.
He's due to put one villa to contract this week.
"There is definite demand for quality and location close to the heart of Queenstown.
"When you look around, there is very little of this calibre."
He's expecting interest from buyers wanting a home away from home as well as those after a permanent residence.
According to a Sotheby's rental appraisal, someone renting out their villa could get between $1000 and $1200 a night, depending on the season.

Customer Testimonials
I feel I must express my gratitude to MDH for the manner in which they undertook the replacement of windows and flooring in my home.
At all times I was impressed by the friendly and courteous attitude shown to me and by the fact that each punctual visit was confirmed prior to arrival. The timetable for the work was made around my availability, bearing in mind the likely manufacture and delivery dates, and programmes fixed , confirmed, and more importantly, adhered to by MDH.
The very competitive cost of the works was agreed prior to the ordering of the materials, and adhered to. There where no additional costs added! The quality of workmanship was very acceptable
After completion of the works the areas were thoroughly cleaned to our satisfaction.
All in all, a brilliant performance. I would not hesitate to use MDH in the future and would recommend them to others
I am pleased to recommend Mick for the quality of work and his ability to be unobtrusive. We had a small extension completed with the minimum of fuss during a very cold September. When we required a boundary fence we turned to MDH again who completed to a high standard in the minimum time possible. I was very sure about what I wanted and Mick was able to create the finished article. We at no point were inconvenienced which is the best you can hope for during these alterations. I would not hesitate to recommend MDH for the quality and personnel approach.
Dennis & Pam Wright
Ann and I are very pleased with the patio. You have done a fine job with a minimum of disturbance to us or our neighbours. This is more impressive considering the amount of cutting you had to do to match the irregular area and that you demolished a wall and also removed the existing paving. The final cost was as your detailed quotation plus the extras which I requested and we agreed as the job progressed. It has been a pleasure doing business with you and I would not hesitate to use you again or recommend you to others.
Ann and John Pretty
I was impressed with the efficiency, lack of fuss and mess the work was carried out - all at a sensible price. I would certainly recommend Mick to my friends and colleagues.
Simon Gooch
We are delighted with the work Mick did for us on the two occasions we have needed his services. Both times he was friendly and did a great job. Each time we needed work doing as a matter of urgency, the first time because our chimney was crumbling and the second time because our porch roof was in danger of collapsing. The price quoted and charged on both occasions was fair - at no point did we feel Mick was taking advantage of the fact that his services were required urgently. All in all we've been really pleased with the service we have received from MDH and happily recommend them to anyone who asks.
Mary & Gerry Wells
MDH was recommended to us when we needed a builder to assist with a total refurbishment project on our new house. We spoke to a number of builders before choosing one for our project, but Mick was the stand out choice as someone who quickly instilled confidence in his ability and service. We were not let down. Mick and his team turned up when they said they would, completed work to a high standard, cleaned up after themselves and charged us a fair price. Mick was friendly and accessible throughout the job and worked flexibly and patiently as the scope of the project changed. Would we recommend Mick? Without a doubt - so long as that doesn't mean he's too busy to squeeze in some block paving for us next year!
Mr and Mrs Nichols
I would like to thank you for all the work. A very professional, polite and friendly service.
P.J Matthew
I have dealt with MDH for well over ten years now. MDH did the property maintenance for the company I worked for and impressed with the quality of work they turned out I used them for work on the two properties I owned. MDH have carried out a wide variety of work for me, building, patio laying, window replacements, roof repairs and much more. I am pleased to say I have never been disappointed in the understanding, and advice and workmanship of MDH.I have recommended MDH to many people all of whom have been as satisfied as I have been. It is very reassuring to know that if you need a specialised building service you can call on MDH with complete confidence in their professional ability and reliability.
Eric Fretwell
MDH is a local to the area; I contacted them in February 2010 for advice and quote for several jobs that needed doing. Mike arranged a time to come and give a quote; he arrived on time and went through what was the best options and even went out of his way to obtain the correct type of ventilation tile that was required for a job on the roof. His quote arrived a couple of days later, itemised which was very good to see and the price fair.
We agreed a start date which was kept too (unusual with so many traders today) and the work was carried out quickly, cleanly and to a high standard. We have since had a quote for further work to be done which we hope to carry out very soon. Mick is a very approachable a pleasant chap and I would definitely recommend M D H for all types of building work.
P Wainwright
Mick is one of the most reliable and experienced trades I know. He understands all aspects of building work, any questions you have he can answer or will find the solution to. He will always treat you with respect and regard. We have used MDH for a few years now and hopefully will continue to do so in the near future. He is always on time and always charges a fair price for the jobs needed.
We have had a couple of extensions done for houses we own and he has always pulled in the work, worked to a very tight schedule and high standard. The work carried out has been extremely impressive.
We would highly recommend MDH as their work is faultless. Thanks for everything Mick Da Brick.

We are continually involved in construction-related services on projects designed by our firm and by others. As a full-service firm, it is our practice to follow our projects through to completion of construction and provide the staff necessary to perform office and field activities. Typical construction-related services for our wastewater projects include the following:
- Construction contract administration services
- Resident project representative (RPR) services
- SCADA graphics development
- SCADA and controls system checkout
- Factory acceptance testing of equipment, controls, and electrical equipment
- Operational assistance during and after construction
- Startup and commissioning of plant processes
- Development of operation and maintenance manuals
- Operator training
We understand that the best engineering design does not guarantee a successful project. Proactive and comprehensive construction oversight is the key to delivering a successful project. Our philosophy in providing construction observation and administration services is that we are part of a team, with responsibilities critical to the success of the project. We understand the importance of communicating with and building a working relationship with contractors so they can meet the project goals, schedule, and budget at a level of quality expected by our clients. Many of our wastewater professionals have years of experience "in the field," which gives them unique insights into designing projects that can be constructed cost effectively. This is particularly true when working at wastewater treatment plants. In addition to focusing on the quality of the construction, it is also critical to focus on operational parameters, both during and after construction. Making sure that permit compliance can still be achieved while a WWTP is being rehabilitated and/or expanded is not an easy task and requires careful development of plans, designs, and cooperation among all parties involved.
We have experienced wastewater operators that spend much of their time working with our construction services personnel and assisting our clients with operational concerns during construction. We also have found that another critical component to long-term project success is training our clients after construction to maximize the value of their investments. Our combination of experienced construction services personnel and operators are part of the project team from the start of design, which provides the knowledge necessary to make certain our clients receive the full value of their construction dollar, minimize start-up issues, and create opportunities to identify value-added services that can be performed concurrent with construction.

After registering a 12th consecutive victory, Lazio the latest to fall victim to the Juventus winning machine, it was business as usual for the champions in Vinovo this morning as attentions quickly turned to the small matter of Sunday's Serie A showdown with Roma.
One man joining his colleagues in a well-deserved warm down session in the gym after last night's efforts was Simone Zaza, arguably more in need than others following another typically hard-working and committed performance from the ex-Sassuolo striker.
After a performance of grit and determination that drew the praise of coach Massimiliano Allegri and pundits alike, the fearless frontman had mixed emotions however when sitting down with Jtv this afternoon.
Yes, the Bianconeri had "conquered the Olimpico" and secured their place in the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia for the fourth time in five seasons but such is Simone's disarming humility and desire to improve, there were still lingering regrets on the mind of the 24-year-old when discussing last night's encounter.
"Last night was just missing more goals and for that I should take some of the blame," he began. "I should have done better with the chances that came my way but the important thing is that we won the match.
"I am delighted with the result because we now have a semi-final to think about, the first of my career, and we conquered the Olimpico for the second time this season."

Data Management, specifically "Where Used"
Of course when SolidEdge is not temperamenta enough and decides to work properly.
When in ordered mode, using the cut tool in the drop down menu of the hole command with the "plane normal to curve" option, you can go back to synchronus and move faces that the cut was originally on, and the cut will move with the new geometry. Saved me a bunch of time vs going back once the geometry had changed and re-doing the cuts!

Here's a comprehensive list of using the Alt key in Solid Edge, though not updated for a long time.
So if you find any "Alt-trick" that is not listed therein, kindly do comment in the blog.

This one is not very easy to explain but I'll give it a go because it's a real time saver in draft mode that few people know of:
Ever tried to modify properties of multiple dimensions? After selecting them, when you click RMB to go to properties only one remains in the selection set. Frustrating...
The trick is simple (and stupid). Select dimensions, click anywhere outside of Solid Edge (2nd monitor is handy), then click RMB in SE and do what you tried to do all along.
@Jos-DENTA UNBELIEVABLE! that's been bothering me for years! How did you figure that out?
@Jos-DENTA . That one has bugged me for years as well! I'll have to try it out. And it's an excuse to ask for a second monitor!
05-17-2019 04:50 PM - edited 05-17-2019 06:11 PM
Folks have been pointing that out lately on the forum for multiple dimension and multiple view property changes. The multiple view one was new to me up until about three weeks ago.
I find having a property button on the quick task ribbon is useful for that purpose but there is probably an icon in the dimension section on the regular ribbons.
You don't really need a second monitor but I won't tell.
I've been switching to a lot of dual dimensions lately, only place I know to get to the dual units is in properites dialog. I have not found access to that via the command toolbar.
I was almost to the point of going through the effort of an IR for this in the past couple weeks but I had already spent a litttle too much time on IR stuff. This is a great work around to be aware of.
As for the extra monitor, I'm getting allong great with my single 40" 4K TV. But unlike some users, I do not need accurate color.

What Impact does Prescription Drug Advertising have on the Prevalence of ADHD?
Written by: Barbara Postol
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently reported that eleven percent of school age children have been diagnosed as having Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, (ADHD) a disorder characterized by hyperactivity and/or inattention. Over the past decade there has been a 41 percent rise in the diagnosis which may increase more in the future, as the American Psychological Association is revising the criteria for the disorder which may mean more children will meet criteria.
This is alarming on many levels. The most common medications used in the treatment of ADHD are stimulant drug medications, which are effective in the treatment for children who indeed have ADHD but they are also not without risk of abuse as well as present unwanted side effects such as loss of appetite or difficulty sleeping. What might account for this drastic increase?
Often times parents may feel their children are exhibiting symptoms of ADHD. There has been an increase in mild symptoms, for example being fidgety and such behaviors readily warranting medication without hesitation. Often, parents may not be the best reporters of abnormal behaviors in contrast to a trained mental health professional. Many behaviors of childhood are a part of normal development such as trouble keeping in a seat in school or working for extended periods of time. However, aside from professionals in child development this most likely may not be known. Parents are however bombarded with ads in magazines and the Internet highlighting the symptoms of ADHD.
How does this impact their ideas of ADHD? Outside of behavior problems in school, parents may seek treatment options for their children and many of their ideas may come from prescription drug advertisements. With such drastic increases in diagnoses the impact of drug ads must be considered. What are the ethical implications that drug ads have on ideas of disorders such as ADHD?
