Sam Altman Is an Idiot
It's not news that Sam Altman likes to say controversial things. The 32-year-old president of the very successful startup incubator Y Combinator attracted disdain for supporting Peter Thiel even after the billionaire's donations to Donald Trump's presidential campaign won widespread criticism. Now, Altman is pitching an idea pulled straight from the White House's talking points: Political correctness is bad for America. This is an idiotic point of view, often put forth by idiots who struggle with the challenges of progress. Sam Altman is one of those idiots.
A couple of years ago, a friend was attempting to raise money for her new start-up in Silicon Valley when something unusual and more than a little unnerving happened. Given the fact that she had plenty of experience in both the start-up world and private equity, and held numerous degrees from some of the top higher learning institutions in the county, we all assumed that she would get more than a fair hearing along the Monopoly-board trip down Sand Hill Road, the nexus of the venture-capital industry in Menlo Park. But my friend, who just happens to be a woman, was stunned by her general reception. Not only did some of the V.C.s not take her seriously, she told me, but others behaved in ways that were truly shocking.
She relayed one particular pitch that stuck with me. She was outlining her company to a seasoned investor who expressed intense interest and suggested that they continue the conversation over dinner. She was thrilled with what she perceived as his genuine curiosity in her business, and agreed to the meal. Then, halfway through dinner, she recalled, the V.C. started to shuffle his chair closer and closer to hers. Then, she said his hand began to move closer to her, too. Nervous and uncomfortable, she asked what he was doing. As far as he was concerned, she relayed to me, they were on a date and he was simply doing what men like him did on dates: making a move.

Growth Office Hours: Round 2
SoftBank is looking to invest up to $300 million in Wag, the dog-walking app
SoftBank has been in talks to invest as much as $300 million in the dog-walking app Wag, according to people familiar with the conversations. It's a concrete example of how SoftBank is transforming financing in tech. Wag was originally looking to raise $100 million in this latest round, the sources tell Recode, but it ballooned to the $300 million neighborhood when SoftBank expressed interest. One person said Wag had already received an investment offer from a top venture capital firm on the $100 million round before SoftBank came in.
The startup had already raised $40 million just eight months ago — an investment the company said would allow it to expand into new cities. It's unclear why the company would need to raise so much more money less than a year after a previous fundraising round. [ Re/Code ]
IN EARLY 1954, Pope Pius XII summoned a venerable Swiss quack named Paul Niehans to the papal retreat at Castel Gandolfo. The pontiff was nauseated with gastritis, fatigued by his 77 years, and loath to meet his maker. So he had Niehans administer an antiaging treatment called cell therapy, which would become sought after by midcentury celebrities, artists, and politicians.
Fetal cells were taken from a pregnant sheep and injected into the scrawny pope. Over time, Pius received a series of shots. The Holy Patient felt rejuvenated; Niehans was appointed to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences in thanks. But if the treatments worked at all, it wasn't for long: Pius died four years later.

If you navigate to Gawker.com today, the first thing that pops up is the last story to be memorialized in its blog archives from its final day of publication, August 22, 2016. Appropriately written by its founder Nick Denton, "How Things Work" is an epitaph for an era of blogging that ceased to be when wrestler Hulk Hogan, née Terry Bollea, with the clandestine financial backing of billionaire investor Peter Thiel,successfully sued Gawker out of existence. (Some of its sister sites were sold to Univision.) Thiel posed as a sort of super-rich Robin Hood, protecting the rights of public figures who lacked adequate means. "If you're a single-digit millionaire like Hulk Hogan, you have no effective access to our legal system," he said last fall at an event he headlined at the National Press Club. [ HIVE ]
Erik Huggers is stepping down as CEO of Vevo
Vevo, the music video service backed by major record labels, just announced that its CEO Erik Huggers is departing. Huggers previously worked at the BBC, at Verizon (which owns TechCrunch) and elsewhere. He joined Vevo in 2015.
Under his leadership, Vevo was working to become less reliant on YouTube (which was its major syndication partner) by developing more apps and products like the Watch Party chat feature. The company was also working on a subscription service, although Huggers said earlier this year that those plans had been delayed in favor of international expansion. [ TechCrunch ]

Google AI Researcher Accused of Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment accusations have hit another corner of the tech industry, with allegations involving prominent artificial intelligence researchers, including one at Google, a leader in the field. Data scientist Kristian Lum wrote in a blog this week that a man she called "S" grabbed her inappropriately at an industry conference in 2010 and said he took advantage of another woman she didn't identify on separate occasions. Two people who were told about the conduct from two alleged victims told Bloomberg the man is Steven Scott, a senior researcher at Google.
Lum also wrote that a well-respected academic touched her inappropriately on the leg at the same conference and later sent her innuendo-laced messages. The man was later identified as Bradley Carlin, an expert in biostatistics, by people familiar with the alleged conduct. The allegations were widely discussed on social media, drawing supportive comments and similar stories from researchers in academia and leading tech companies, including Alphabet Inc.'s Google and Microsoft Corp. Eric Horvitz, a Microsoft research director, called Lum's post a "powerful and important report."
"I'd love to tell my side of the story, but I'm afraid you'll need to get it from firstname.lastname@example.com," Scott wrote in an email, referring to Google's public relations department. "Google is investigating the matter," Gina Scigliano, a company spokeswoman, said. Scott has been suspended from Google as of Friday, according to a person familiar with the matter. [ BloomBerg ]

Research Trip Post #3: Toasts, Gods, and Museum CatalogsPosted: June 8, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: archives, dissertation, Hinduism, Peabody Essex Museum, Religion, research, Salem East India Marine Society 1 Comment »
I got out of the library archive and into the museum the past couple of days. Yesterday, thanks to a wonderful curator at the Peabody Essex Museum, I was got a quick tour of the East India Marine Hall and saw a handful of the original EIMS collection that is on display currently. She even took me back to a storage building and showed me the palanquin. It was covered in plastic but I could imagine it being carried down the streets of Salem. I went back today and took some pictures of the items on display to help me think about what folks might have run into when they entered the museum in the 1820s.
Back in the library, I spent yesterday going through old catalogs and manuscripts trying to find out what items were in the museum when and who donated them. I'm realizing that there was a good bit of stuff from Hindu religious culture in the museum, but that there was a lot of other stuff too.
Today, I looked at a bunch of lists of toasts given at the societies anniversary dinners, some scrapbooks, and some guest books. The toasts were useful because they revealed how nationalistic and commercially minded the society was. It was all about an amazing virtuous America built upon strong commercial enterprise. The toasts are like early American tweets-little bursts of thought that crystallized ideas floating in the culture. Going the guest books was tedious but interesting. I knew I'd find John Quincy Adams and Nathaniel Hawthorne. I also knew I'd find a spot where Andrew Jackson had had his signature clipped out in an act of pro-Whig vandalism by two young girls. But I didn't know I'd find Lyman and Harriet Beecher or Franklin Pierce. I also didn't know I'd find visitors from as far away as Mississippi, Charleston, Kentucky, and Alabama. Seems like the museum was the thing to do when you visited Salem (maybe even Boston) in the early nineteenth century.
Tomorrow is the last day. Time to finish with the guest books and head back to Atlanta.
Trying to Find the "Hindoos" in SalemPosted: June 7, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: archives, dissertation, Hinduism, research, Salem East India Marine Society, taverns 1 Comment »
So yesterday I spent all day working in the beautiful reading room of the Phillips Library at the Peabody Essex Museum. If you are wondering what I was looking for you can find out here. So what did I find?
Not much.
I spent yesterday going through the minutes of the East India Marine Society meetings from the founding in 1799 to about 1820. What stuck out to me initially was a few years in a row the society held a dinner and procession through the town to celebrate its anniversary. The first of these was referred to as "a festival." But after a few years they stopped. From the minutes it looks as if the members just didn't want to do them anymore. Once the processions stopped the dinners got fancier. Including music and invited guests from around the Salem and Boston area. These fancy anniversaries peaked with a dinner that included William Emerson, Ralph Waldo's father, and where the Justices of the Supreme Court, the Solicitor General and the Attorney General had been invited but declined.
But then the next year, no dinner. There were anniversary dinners in subsequent years but always much smaller and each year required a vote to determine if they'd have one or not. The votes became closer and closer but usually they ended up voting to leave it up to the President and Standing Committee to decide about the dinner and to arrange for it.
The dinner's aren't exactly my interest here, though. They reflect the rise and fall of the financial affairs of the merchants that make up the society. The processions are what I need to know more about. From what I can gather they included "costumes" from the museum's collection, the use of a palanquin from Calcutta, and turbaned African Americans. What did these processions look like, how did they function in local Salem society? How was "the Oriental" deployed for local social ends? I suspect, and another researcher I ran into in the archives confirmed, this has something to do with class.
Today I'm thinking about going straight to the museum's catalogs from 1820 and 1830 and just seeing what the heck they had in there. Then I think I'm going to take a look at a set of scrapbooks kept by the society and see what I can find in there.
I have been thinking that if I can't find enough on the museum and its holdings and influence then I might expand the chapter and look at Boston area libraries (I could probably include Philadelphia, New York, and Charleston too but that might be a FTB (for the book). Then I could tie the ideas in English books about Indian culture in circulation to the artifacts in the museum. While they were decontextualized within the museum itself, the objects in the museum did fit into a larger context of American consumption of knowledge about India and its religions.
Ok, time to head to the library.
The First Research Trip: Hinduism & Sailors in Salem, MAPosted: June 6, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: archives, dissertation, Hinduism, Peabody Essex Museum, research, Salem East India Marine Society 2 Comments »
It's that time of year again: research trips! I have begun my first official dissertation research trip this week. I'll be spending four days in the lovely Phillips Library at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem, Massachusettes. While I'm here I'll be digging into the records of the Salem East India Marine Society (EIMS).
Here's what I know now: In 1799 a group of merchants who had been involved in the nascent East Indies trade decided to form a society with three goals. First, they would combine their knowledge of the seas and routes from America around the Cape of Good Hope to the Indian Ocean. Second, they would provide for the widows and families of seamen. Finally, and most interestingly for me, they wanted to keep a "cabinet of curiousities" that they brought home from their voyages. This "cabinet" eventually became the Salem East India Marine Society Museum (which eventually became the Peabody Essex Museum). The cabinet/museum had some stone images of Hindu gods, I've seen a Ganesa listed in an old museum catalog, and some engravings of life in India. They also had a large palanquin from Calcutta they would use in annual processions through the city.
Here's what I want to know: How many "average New Englanders" wandered into the museum from its opening in 1799 to around 1840 or so? What did people in Salem make of a group of old sailors trapsing through the city with a boy on a palanquin dressed "in Oriental style" being carried by four African Americans outfitted in turbans? And most importantly, what was the representation of Hinduism the museum offered Americans and (how) did it change over the years?
We'll see what I find in the archives today. If you are interested in what I find (and why wouldn't you be?) follow my Twitter feed for breaking news from the museum archives.

Hacking the Ph.D. DegreePosted: May 27, 2010 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: #hackacad, academia, archives, grad school 2 Comments »
How is/should/could digital technology change the Ph.D. program in the humanities?
Tanya Roth's great Hacking the Academy post on "Hacking the Dissertation" pushed me to think through how one might hack graduate training. Roth has seen the light on the other side of ADB (all but dissertation) and she does a good job rethinking the dissertation process. I, however, have just passed through two years of course work and I am now staring down the barrel of four exam lists and comprehensive exams in October.
From this position in the middle of my own specific degree program in American Religious Cultures in the Graduate Division of Religion at Emory, I want to offer a few modest suggestions for hacking the Ph.D. degree. For most of these suggestions I rely a lot on my own experiences in my own program/university so I'm hoping to hear more from people other places.

There's no reason to celebrate the Hunter's inclusion in this top five list.
According to new data released by the Heart Foundation, the Hunter Valley had the fourth highest heart-related hospital admissions in NSW during a study that took place for two years up to mid-2014.
The study investigated the number of hospital admissions that resulted in either transfer, discharge, change in care or deathacross Australia in relation to heart failure, heart attacks and unstable angina.
In NSW, the Hunter was beaten only by the Riverina,Far West and Orana and Blacktown.
The figures showed that, compared with a state average of 44.8, the Hunter recorded a rate of 69.9 admissions per 10,000 people.
It may have taken some time for these figures to have been released, but they should serve as a warning that Hunter residents need to pick up the pace when it comes to building healthy lifestyles.
The results have been loaded onto an online, interactive map so the areas most at-risk of heart disease can easily be identified and helped.
For the Hunter, in particular, that's a goodthing.
Heart Foundation NSW CEO Kerry Doyle said regional townsgenerally had poorer health outcomes, partly because of lifestyle risk factors.
She said residents of regional areas were "significantly more likely to have high blood pressure, smoke andbe obese".
The Heart Foundation, a charity aimed at promoting awareness of and reducing heart disease, has a range of easily accessibleinitiatives to help peoplemaketheir lives healthier.
Ms Doyle saidthe CessnockHealthy Lifestyle Network and Jump Rope For Heart Outreach were among the useful programs available in the Hunter.
"We need to make sure we keep supporting the communities that are not doing so well toensure they can take some simple steps to improve their heart health – stop smoking, be moreactive and get a heart health check to understand your risk," she said.
While organisations like the Heart Foundation are helpful and do good work for communities, ultimately it's each individual's responsibility to make lifestyle changes where necessary.
That's the only way we can avoid being so highly ranked on lists like this in future.

The online casino that offers the highest bonus is considered the best. It is so because people are more interested in gambling for free instead of playing with their hard earned money. Free gambling websites are rampant but these sites offer little freedom for using bonus amount. If you are also looking for a high bonus casino then you are searching in the wrong direction.
Look further than bonus
Every online gambling club gives bonus hence it shouldn't be a cause of worry for players. The bonus amount could vary from one website to another but it is the type of bonus that matters more than the amount.
Full cash: It is the most common type of bonus but not all websites give full cash. If you are promised $100 in bonus, you could get $50 in cash in your gambling account and the rest of money could be in the form of free spins.
Free turns: The casino could offer you free turns amounting to a certain amount and at specific tables in bonus. If you like those games, you can take advantage of the bonus. If you don't like the games offered for free playing, you can click back from that website.
Loss recovery: Some casinos offer loss recovery as a bonus. You will be asked to play with your money but you will get your money back, if you lose. You can get a certain amount in a refund from the casino.
The best online casino Malaysia is one that has customer centric policies. A bonus is an investment bya casino. The website offers free money only when you are ready to play with the site for a long time. The site could impose difficult requirements to force you to keep playing or it could leave you free to whether to play or not.
Read and understand the wagering requirements
Every casino has wagering requirements for free players. Before you accept an offer of free gambling, you should go through the requirements you need fulfilling in order to take full advantage of the free money. There is no need to rely on a website that is more concerned about its profit than your convenience.
If you have any doubt about anything about an online casino, you should ask the casino for clarification of your doubt. Your objective should be to keep things simple and transparent. You should rely on the casino that opens all channels of communication with its members.

MVC = Model View Controller - The What, The Why and the How
If you're wondering how Microsoft has incorporated the model view controller design pattern into its popular ASP.NET framework, it's important to first understand how the model view controller (MVC) design concept actually works.
In virtually every software application there are three fundamental parts, consisting of the data (model), some type of interface to view and modify the data (view) and a mechanism to interact with the data (controller). In an MVC pattern, the data is independent of the other two components. The view, in some cases, is completely independent of the other two components. In other instances it can be the controller. The controller provides the model (data) to the view and interprets user interactions (like button clicks from the view) and therefore is dependent upon both.
The main purpose of the controller is to remove the dependency between the view and the data. The advantage in removing dependencies is that non-dependent code modules are easier to maintain (less buggy) and reusable without modification. In the case of the ASP.NET framework, the separation of the input logic into the controller, the business logic into the model, and the UI logic into the view, allows developers to independently create modules which can be tested separately and re-used for additional purposes.
This differs from the more traditional Web Forms-based ASP.NET applications where writing automated tests required instantiating the page class, all of its child controls and additional dependent classes in the application, making it hard to focus on individual parts of the application. Another benefit to the MVC pattern is that it makes it possible to test individual components in isolation from the rest of the framework, whereas all the tests in a Web Forms-based ASP.NET application require a web server.

Check out Soko Glam's 2018 Best of K-Beauty Winners below:
Klavuu Nourishing Care Lip Sleeping Pack
Available at Soko Glam, $15 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
Reminiscent of the cult-favorite Laneige lip mask at Sephora, this lip mask is packed with nourishing avocado, sweet almond, and apricot seed oils to make your lips supple overnight, even if they're already chapped. Thanks to the consistency of the ingredients, the mask feels silky rather than sticky, and it is free of parabens and animal-derived ingredients. It also tastes lightly of vanilla.
Easydew EX Repair Control EGF
Available at Soko Glam, $88 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
This intensive spot treatment combats wrinkles and fades acne scars and pigmentation, and a little bit goes a long way. The special formula contains 10 ppm of medical-grade EGF — a protein that promotes cell regeneration — to target wrinkles and brighten skin at the cellular level.
According to Soko Glam, Easydew EX contains the highest purity of EGF known in the market, and this treatment, in particular, contains the contains the highest concentration of EGF allowed in a cosmetic product.
On top of that, Repair Control contains caffeine, ceramides, and sodium hyaluronate to "de-puff" and moisturize the skin (with the help of argan and macadamia oils) to keep skin looking younger for longer. It's also free of parabens, artificial colors, and mineral oil.
Benton Tea Tree Cleansing Water
Available at Soko Glam, $17 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
This Tea Tree Cleanser works like a micellar water in the way that it combines makeup removal with the first cleanse of your skincare routine.
Made with 70% tea tree leaf water, it will remove stubborn makeup and impurities from pores while simultaneously treating the skin with antibacterial ingredients (like tea tree leaf extract oil, a natural acne-fighting ingredient) that help keep sebum production in check, fortifying against future breakouts.
It has a limited ingredient list (10 total) and no fragrance. It has a pH level of ~6.
Dr. Oracle A-Thera Tea Tree Peeling Sticks
Available at Soko Glam, $24 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
This targeted spot treatment combines AHA and BHA, powerful acne-fighting acids you can learn more about here, to clear pores both deeply and at the surface, improving the skin's clarity, texture, and tone. After using the Peeling Sticks, blemishes disappear quickly and skin looks calmer and less inflamed.
While the daily acidic treatment calls to mind Dr. Dennis Gross' Alpha Beta Extra Strength Daily Peels, these Peeling Sticks are applied via sticks shaped like huge cotton swaps.
Lactic acid gently sloughs away dead skin cells, and glycolic acid buffs and exfoliates the skin to reveal a smoother texture to and more even-toned complexion. Extracts of tea tree, lemon, and bamboo work to exfoliate as well, gently enough to avoid irritating skin.
LA'DOR Keratin Power Glue
Available at Soko Glam, $29 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
Snail mucin is a popular ingredient in K-Beauty, and this Keratin Power Glue directs its intense hydration to your hair, strengthening strands and coating hair with extra protection against heat damage.
Keratin brings protein back to hair damaged by hot tools or chemicals, and vitamin-packed moringa seed oil and collage build back strands for added shine, strength, and smoothness. Whether you're trying to baby your hair back from the aftermath of a dye job or just want your hair to feel silkier or smoother, this would be a good option to try.
The Plant Base Time Stop Collagen Ampoule
Available at Soko Glam, $29 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
This ampoule spares no room in the bottle for excess. A formula with 76.52% mushroom extract stimulates collagen production to reduce the appearance of wrinkles; powerhouse ingredients like Panthenol, sodium hyaluronate, and macadamia seed intensely hydrate the skin; and aloe and Centella soothe irritation and redness.
The formula's patented ingredient — a blend of licorice, persimmon leaf, and other botanical extracts rich in antioxidants — brightens, soothes, and strengthens the skin. Lastly, adenosine and beta-glucans work toward smoother, firmer skin.
All in all, the ampoule has a pH level of 6.56 and is free of potential irritants like parabens, artificial fragrance, and mineral oil.
ACWELL Licorice pH Balancing Cleansing Toner
Available at Soko Glam, $18 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
This toner has been specially formulated for all skin types.
Peony extract and a high concentration of licorice water brighten the skin, while green tea extract calms the skin and reduces pigmentation (including in acne scars and dark spots). It has a pH level of 5.5 to balance the skin and helps prep it to better absorb moisturizers and essences layered quickly after application.
The product description says it leaves skin feeling clean and smooth rather than dry and tight — and, when it was included in the 10-Step Korean Skincare routine I tested, that was definitely accurate.
Neogen Real Ferment Micro Essence
Available at Soko Glam, $38 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
This is a deeply hydrating and brightening essence. It contains more than 93% naturally fermented ingredients — including bifida ferment lysate — and 28% saccharomyces ferment to plump and moisturize skin. Its inclusion of 17% birch juice and 9% rice extracts have the effect of making skin look illuminated from within, and antioxidants and cell-communicating ingredients work to create supple, glowy skin. It's fragrance-free and has a pH level of ~5.
This formula is known to create "honey skin" — a term that alludes to a social media trend of the dewy, glowing complexion that's a byproduct of healthy, balanced skin. As Soko Glam explains, "honey skin [typically] entails using a routine with a lot of humectant and toning ingredients."
This was another product included in my testing of the 10-Step Korean Skincare routine, and I said it would be my choice if I could only re-order one thing.
Klairs Freshly Juiced Vitamin E Mask
Available at Soko Glam, $27 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
This lightweight overnight mask is packed with vitamin E, an antioxidant known to slow down cell aging, reduce wrinkles, and improve skin texture. Vitamin E also complements the common skincare powerhouse vitamin C by stabilizing it.
The unique pudding-like texture of the mask clings to skin, creating an even surface that's easily absorbed by the skin upon application. Niacinamide brightens skin while adenosine — present in the maximum limit allowed in a formula — combats wrinkles and helps skin regenerate for a youthful appearance.
It's light enough to be used as a daytime moisturizer on thirsty skin, or at night for younger-looking, brighter, and smoother skin upon waking up.
SKINRX LAB MadeCera Cream
Available at Soko Glam, $36 [Take 15% off with the promo code "SGBOKB18" while supplies last]
This multi-tasking cream strengthens the skin barrier, brightens, and fights premature aging. It's another product I tried whilst researching the 10-Step system, and it's impossibly hydrating for its silky, lightweight formula and lack of grease or stickiness. It's light enough for daytime use, and can be layered for extra hydration at night without clogging the pores with a thicker formula.
The formula includes madecassoside, an inflammation-fighting compound naturally occurring in centella asiatica extract, that also reduces redness in the skin (like acne spots). Niacinamide brightens the complexion, adenosine smoothes skin and acts as an anti-ager, and ceramides pump the skin with moisture.
MadeCera cream is lightly fragranced but free of parabens, surfactants, and mineral oil.

Finding a Natural Setting – Baja California Wilderness Resort
Finding this amazing Baja California Wilderness resort took some concentrated effort. Connecting with them was well worth it as the video and images below will attest. So why take the time and spend the money? Because experiencing nature on its terms is a long lasting, life enhancing experience.
For artists, inspiration can be all around us, of course in our day to day lives, but most especially when we're immersed in a setting that is novel. One of the joys of vacationing is jumping both feet first – sometimes quite literally – into environments and situations that are not my norm. Mikey (the hubby) and I just returned from a remote beach cove on the Sea of Cortez side of Mexico's Baja peninsula.
Recreation = Re-Creating!
Being able to immerse yourself in a natural setting is one of the healthiest ways you can spend a week! In a recent article in the "Great Falls Tribune" my friend from graduate school, Kelly Bricker, (yep, believe it or not, I have an MS in Public Recreation from Western Illinois University where Dr. Bricker and I studied together) speaks to this very topic. She says "Researchers are finding that exposure to the natural world might not be a luxury but a necessity for healthy living. " and I could not agree more! Certainly this has been my personal experience.
Living with horses is a lifestyle choice that has made it necessary for Mikey and me to live on a chunk of land big enough to support them. This causes us to live in a more natural setting than many. So where do we go to 'get away from it all'? Sometimes to the city, but, more often than not, further out into nature. Which is exactly what we did for this last vacation. We joined a small group assembled by Kevin Warren of Baja AirVentures to a small property he and his Mexican born wife own on a very remote piece of waterfront in Baja California, Mexico.
The Warm Embrace of the Natural World
To those open to it, meeting nature where it lives can be high point of human existence. The folks at Baja AirVenures who run the Las Animas Wilderness Resort have created an experience that puts the visitor within the magnificent and wild setting of Mexico's Baja California at its most unsullied. The staff are competent, outgoing and skilled at helping people feel at home in this sweet setting. I'll link my TripAdvisor review once it's done so you can read more about the details.
Bring An Open Mind and an Open Heart
…..and you will not be disappointed! Let nature speak directly to you during your stay. Take in the many scenes and sights that will literally make you say "Wow!" Whether it's the proximity of the playful sea lions or the peaceful plankton filtering of the gigantic whale sharks or witnessing a spectacular sunrise, moonrise or storm moving in. Being a part of the setting due to the thoughtfully designed layout of the lodge and its guest yurts within a cozy cove puts you in a front row seat for sky watching. Take them up on as many side trips to view, study and interact with sea life and dessert life as you feel up to. You may become exhausted but you will not regret it!
That's what we did. I hardly had time to draw I was so busy living in each moment. If only we could have afforded a month or even another week! But the time we did have will always be precious to me. My exposure to the whale sharks and the sea lions has cast an indelible glow onto my nature-loving heart in ways I had never experienced before. I bet we see more evidence of this in my art as time goes on. In the meantime, below are some sketches I did manage to complete during our stay. And of course, the video I assembled from footage and images collected by my trusty iPhone (sometimes locked in a waterproof case) will be a great visual reminder for me to reference when I start to forget the thrills.
A Lifetime of Wonder in Six Minutes
My recap of an amazing weeklong trip. Thank you to all who have worked so diligently to allow people like us to experience wonders like this!
The Drawings
I didn't take the time to draw a lot like I usually do on vacation, but wanted to be out in this natural setting rather than stay in and draw. The reasons are obvious!

A: Each patient follows a personalized program and undergoes a recommended series of one to three treatments in order to maximize results. Clinical studies have shown a measurable reduction in body circumference in most patients, even after a single treatment. The series of treatments is performed in one-month intervals, giving time for the body's natural metabolic processes to safely clear away the destroyed fat cells. During these intervals, patients can treat other areas of the body and undergo other complementary procedures.

A model from Belarus who was arrested during a "sex training seminar" in Thailand and then claimed to have evidence of Russian interference in U.S. President Donald Trump's election was deported on Thursday. Thai authorities said Anastasia Vashukevich, 27, two other Belarussians and five Russians were being sent to their home countries two days after they pleaded guilty to charges including conspiracy and soliciting. Vashukevich drew world attention last February when she said she had hours of audio recordings that could shed light on links between Russian officials and Trump's election in 2016.

Bariatric weight loss surgeries, such as gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy or laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB), force patients to drastically reduce the amount of food they consume by surgically creating a small stomach pouch. Most gastric procedures reduce the stomach's holding capacity from about two quarts to two ounces. When eating, this pouch fills quickly. Because patients feel satisfied and full sooner, they eat less.
Your home and work environment. If you are surrounded by people who consume a typical American diet at home and work, you may have a harder time sticking to this plan. Most common foods (starchy carbohydrates like bread, pasta, rice, baked goods) are not included in a ketogenic diet. Cravings for these foods may be difficult and even intolerable at times.

This Vegan Cherry Berry Smoothie is a dairy-free, delicious breakfast option with cancer-fighting ingredients.
I got to check out a copy of the Healing Smoothies book recently and I was blown away by the combination of scientific research, beautiful photos, and great recipes, all with the theme of cancer prevention and recovery.
The author, Daniella Chace, has written a companion book as well, called Turning Off Breast Cancer: A Personalized Approach to Nutrition and Detoxification in Prevention and Healing. Both of these books have a "plant-strong" point of view and are very well-researched and written, in my opinion.
The Cherry Berry Lime smoothie caught my eye and Daniella's publisher was kind enough to allow me to share the recipe with you today.
This recipe calls for "frozen green tea cubes" which I had never thought about making, but is genius. The idea is essentially to make green tea and then freeze into ice cubes. I used some organic jasmine green tea I had in my pantry, brewed for several minutes and then chilled in a glass container.
I then froze the tea into cubes, errr, flower shapes, in my handy-dandy silicone tray:
Here's what my green tea ice cubes look like after they've been frozen overnight:
You only need a few cubes for this recipe, so the rest got stored in my freezer for future use:
I had all the other ingredients on hand as well, including the tart cherry juice. This is a fantastic recipe! Here's the printable version of this cancer-fighting Cherry Berry smoothie:Print

The 14th edition of Automechanika Shanghai, which took place Nov. 28 thru Dec. 1, has recorded an unprecedented rise in attendees compared to the previous edition. Serving as a platform for both local and international players from the automotive parts, accessories, equipment and service sectors, final figures suggest visitors at the show rose by 15 percent since 2017 – now reaching a total of 150,568. As Asia's largest automotive trade fair, organizers also received overwhelmingly positive feedback from participants during the four-day period.
Final figures for this year's show reflect the continual growth across each aspect of the show:
- Visitors: 150,568 (2017: 130,928)
- Exhibitors: 6,269 (2017: 6,051)
- Scale: 350,000 (2017: 340,000)
The news comes after the fair expanded many of its themed zones and areas. For example, the brand new Tomorrow's Service & Mobility area shed light on the most exciting current and future developments of the industry, from digitalization and alternative drives, to autonomous driving and new mobility services. Other areas that proved immensely popular were the collection of dedicated zones scattered across the halls, including the debuting Chain Stores Zone and the Remanufacturing Zone, as well as the returning REIFEN (tires) sector for the very latest tire, wheel and rim products.
This year, a total of 57 fringe program events ran concurrently with the main show. Throughout the fairground, each event continued to receive high praise from industry experts who took part and presented ideas and visions for the future of the industry. Many fringe events were welcomed for the first time, such as the debuting Tomorrow's Service & Mobility Summit 2018 and the Automotive Aftermarket Summit 2018, both of which reflected the themes and trends across the showground.
Organizers marked an increase in international participation across the board. With 43 exhibiting countries and regions around the fairground, newcomers from Luxemburg joined the list of returning countries, along with the likes of the Czech Republic, Lebanon and Slovenia along with other established overseas participants.
Overseas visitors also saw an upswing of 22 percent. Participants were particularly keen to express that this not only helped create new channels of communication for international buyers trading with Chinese firms, but also allowed for more business exchanges across other international exhibitors and buyers.
A detailed final report, featuring comment and analysis from the show's exhibitors, visitors and organisers, will be available soon. Image Courtesy of Messe Frankfurt Traders-Link (Beijing) Co Ltd

Learn more about the Flying Trapeze Club
Safety is extremely important and our first priority. You will be harnessed in safety lines and swing above a safety net at all times. Don't worry, you will be clipped into a safety line from the moment you leave the ground, to the moment you return to it. Someone will be there to help you every step of the way. The only risks involved are mostly emotional. There are a few rules for your safety, like 'don't walk under the net', to make sure that each participant enjoys a safe experience. A few scrapes or bruises, as in any activity, sometimes occur, but it is generally extremely safe.
For the most part, everyone's first flying trapeze experience is scary. But it is also more fun than you could possibly imagine! Being afraid of heights is normal and human. Most everyone we know was afraid of heights when they first started flying. It is good to have a healthy respect for heights. You overcome your fear by stepping into it and embracing it and this is the perfect sport to face some of those demons.
First, Ground School
Before you go into air, we teach you what you need to know first on the ground, to improve your success. We'll go over safety guidelines and basic take off positions.
Next, climbing the ladder
With a safety harness on, you will get hooked into the belay to climb the ladder. At the top, you will step onto the pedestal board where someone will switch your safety lines out and help you prepare to take off.
Up, up and away you go
You will call "Listo" when you are ready, and your board biscuit will call "Ready…HEP!!!" and which point you will jump from the pedestal board and soar though the air, with the greatest of ease. The "Line Puller" will be holding your safety lines from the ground. He or she will help by shouting directions to you to help you swing properly and land safely in the net. (They'll be 20 feet away, and we want you to hear) Then the crowd goes wild, as you successfully complete your swing and land in the net.
After the swing
We'll help you to roll out of the net and disconnect your safety lines.
Your first trick... the "Knee Hang"
The first trick you traditionally learn on the flying trapeze is the knee hang. We'll show you this on a low bar first, so you can get the feeling of what it is like to hang from your knees. As trapeze is all about timing, we will tell you what you can expect as there are specific commands to help you with the timing. I.E. Line puller will yell "Legs up now" so you can lift your legs up when they are weightless. Same goes for letting go with your hands and putting them back on the bar. After you are comfortable with it on the ground, you will then climb up the ladder and try it from the fly bar.
Learning more tricks
Once you can do the knee hang successfully, it is time to move on to learn more tricks. We'll even give you a Frequent Flyer's Log so you can keep track. Traditionally you'd move on to a two-position splits or a plange. There are many tricks to learn, check out this tricks database, it's pretty awesome.
The Catch
At a traditional trapeze school, at the end of the class, a catcher would go up and you would fly to him/her as the grand finale. Since we are a club, whether you catch or not will depend on who we have at the rig as well as your experience. For a catch, the "catcher" will ascend the rope up to the "catch trap" (the other bar on the flying rig). He or she will pump up their swing and hang upside down by their knees. When the catcher is ready, they will tell you when it's time to go by yelling "ready... HEP!". With the knee hang, you would then leave the platform, bend your knees around the trapeze bar, take your hands off and look for your catcher. They would then grab your chalked wrists and you will squeeze them back, as you let your legs straighten off your bar and then you will swing with them in the apron. The catcher will then drop you safely down into the net. As you get to be a more advanced flyer, doing more advanced tricks, you will eventually go for a "return", which means that instead of dropping to the net, the catcher would put you back on the bar you initially left and then you'd go back to standing up on the platform. None of this is easy, but it's more fun and exciting than anything else in the world.
You should NOT do trapeze If...
As with any exercise or physical activity, you are advised to check with your doctor if you are uncertain about your capabilities.
You will need to hold your weight hanging by the bar from your hands, and you will need to be able to climb the ladder to the platform. Vision and hearing impairments can be accommodated. People with other disabilities may be able to fly if they are able to climb the ladder with minimal assistance, and hang from the bar with their own hands.

I remember the 1st time this guy {9-10 years my senior & not a Christian} whispered in my ear that he "wanted to be my boyfriend," & I gave my timeless answer of "get in line" - to which, he responded, "I was here first," which gave me a cringing creepy feeling of being viewed as real estate or the prime spot in a McDonald's drive thru line {or something}. Needless to say, I remained in my single status, despite his, um, boyfriend declaration.
This past February {several years after the above atheistic fellow (Why do I seem to attract the Charles Darwin type?)}, snow days hit hard & I found myself going stir crazy. In said craziness, I did something I had said I would never do: I signed up for a free trial on a Christian dating website {I blame the deadly combination of cabin fever paired with the swift approach of Feb. 14th}. {NOTE: It's not that I think anything's wrong with online dating, per-say; in fact, I've seen some great godly married couples {& sweet bouncing babies} come out of it - I just didn't think it was for me.} Meanwhile back at the ranch {apt.}, a guy who lived about an hour away started e-mailing me through this dating site thingamajig. Before I knew it {within days/before I returned to work from my snow days}, he proposed that we meet! Say what!? Okay, so it made me a crazy nervous lunatic as I prayed he wasn't one & questioned why I had agreed to such a thing! The "date" was set for the day after Valentine's. He would drive down & meet me at a coffee shop. He even offered that I bring a friend, if that would make me more comfortable. I opted to come on my own, but I had done my Nancy-Drew-like detective work beforehand {Googled him & found his Facebook profile} & alerted some folks of my planned whereabouts for the day & this guy's name. Plus, the cup-o'-overpriced-Joe rendezvous place was not only tiny, but always bustling {&, above all, this girl had her God with her every shaky step}.
So, somehow, on Feb. 15th {my blogoversary, actually} I got all dolled up & forced myself to get in the car & drive... oh, & to not veer off the bridge into the water. {Did I mention, I was a nervous butterfly-infested fraidy girl?} To make a long story short-er, it was uber awkward at the start {&, really, most of the way through}. After minimal conversation in the coffee shop {where it felt like amused eyes were watching as they sipped their lattes at tables nearby}, I suggest we head to a nearby park. We drive separately & meet back up to walk around the paths. More awkward-ness, but I {at least} begin to feel better now that there's room to breathe & talk freely {without overly caffeinated prying eyes & ears}. He was definitely a nice guy, but I didn't feel like he was the one for me. I threw out what I thought were funny jokes that only seemed to scare the poor fellow - I guess he didn't appreciate me saying that the guy with the tinted windows who circled the parking lot twice as we stood by our cars talking, was an ex-marine sharp-shooter whom I hired for the afternoon. I thought it was pretty funny. And, no I didn't {hire anyone, that is - they did it for free (just kidding - mere handy coincidence)}. I, in turn, didn't laugh when he pointed out a bit of leafy green in an otherwise bare tree. He asked, completely innocently, as we walked under it what it was. Was he kidding? He sounded sincere. I managed something to the effect of, "You know what that is. It's mistletoe." I then proceed to say, "Just pretend you never saw it," all mock-serious like. Not even a hint of a smile on his part. La te da!
I've had several misadventures in my day {& more to come, I'm sure}, but I've learned that this life is not to be put on hold until everything falls into place {I don't believe it ever really does, for that matter, this side of heaven}. Life does not begin after "I do." It has already begun & time is precious, sister! The world will tell you {sadly, some well meaning church sisters & brothers (& family) may express this, too (forgive em, they're just fellow human imperfection)} that you're an outsider, a paranormal freak show, you name it because of your relationship status & the fact that you're not clamoring after guys in order to become a plural over a single. I know you've heard it before {but it really is true}, God's got this whole thing already figured out. Stop fretting {easier said than done, I know, so try real hard}. He's good & knows what you need & the desires of your heart. In the end {& in the beginning, too} only He can fully satisfy your soul. Jesus is your completer, not some lovely, but fully flawed male creation. Just saying. Go, live your life, take the trips, write the books, plant the gardens, start the businesses, go on the mission trips, jump off the high dives, try, fail, & get up again, fall in love with Your completer & redeemer. Your life is already ticking, don't wait for a lover of your soul to come around - He already has & His name is Jesus. If God brings a guy into your life as you're out there imperfectly living it for Him, it'll be an unexpected blessing. If He doesn't {& either way}, He will be enough. There will be harder days when it doesn't seem fair & loneliness hangs heavy, but even then He is enough. Keep on going, single sister. There is adventure & love to be had in Christ.
So, I live this singular life, hoping/praying every once in a while, that a guy lurks {okay, hopefully not lurks} out there somewhere who will send me flowers & call me beautiful & hold my hand & heart & adventure this journey with me & who loves God first & me second. Only God knows who, when, where, how, & if. Come what may, I'm living, cause Christ is enough!
Love in the Singular,

UNIVERSITY CITY, MO (KPLR) – On a day when the temperature in the St. Louis region is going to be in the 50's, area residents spent the day at the Ice Carnival in the Delmar Loop of University City. Thousands are expected to attend the weekend event that will feature over 100 ice sculptures, and a frozen buns run.
The event has grown into a huge event over the last 10 years.
Two ice sculptors from "Ice Visions" in Kirkwood start carving the day after New Year's Day have been creating 5 or 6 creations every day to get ready for the loop ice carnival.
