MOTHER EARTH NEWS is the "Original Guide to Wiser Living."
I now subscribe to the magazine via my Kindle.
The Mother Earth New Fair was centered around more than a dozen stages, inside and outside, with the speakers changing every hour or two.
There was no way to listen to all of the speakers in 2 days. I do not have any interest in livestock and I wasn't planning on setting up my own sawmill, I could cross those off the schedule.
I circled one or two speakers for each session and would decide later which ones to sit in on.
There were a few authors that I recognized and the author of a blog I follow, and I knew I did not want to miss those.
Subjects I listened to over the 2 days included:
herbal medication
healthy eating
organic gardening
making a living off your land
tiny house building
no-tilling soil management
attracting wildlife to your yard
sustainable communities
There was a huge bookstore in the center of the exhibition hall, I looked but I did not buy any books, hoping to find used books while I travel, or read them on my kindle or get them at the library. I was tempted to purchase the thumb-drive loaded with many years of back issues of the magazine, but decided to wait until I actually owned some property.
My purchases were organic basil and sunflower seeds and herb tea blends.
As with any fair or trade show, there were many vendors and many freebies.
I went home with these free items
Food is always part of any fair or gathering. Several of the vendors offered samples - I sampled Coconut Bliss Ice Cream, Vegan burgers and breakfast patties, salad dressings, kombucha, elderberry syrup, and blender soft serve fruit "ice cream".
There were several food trucks outside, many of them offering up organic and/or vegan food. I chose some items from a food truck and walked back to the RV to eat lunch and take a break.
I had purchased a 2 day fair pass, so I had plenty of time to see everything at the fair.

ExpoCentre building / looks like a Tornado Shelter
Art Deco Building at the fairgrounds
The earliest recorded event on this site dates back to 1871. A small, local fair quickly grew to be the largest in the state. Just nine years after its inception it became known as the Kansas State Fair, featuring a wide variety of exhibitions. Fairgoers saw the newest farm equipment and the best agricultural exhibits in the state, as well as the finest livestock.
During the last decades of the 19th century the original grandstand was erected. However, it was not until 1909 that funds were appropriated for the building of permanent structures.

I am really happy that I decided to take this detour and attend the fair. It was good to take the time to learn more about something that I have thought about for a long time. I love to travel, but I really feel that having a place to grow food and flowers has a stronger pull on my heart than the love of traveling.
Leaving my home state and traveling in the RV is/was all about discovery. Who am I after a major life changing event? What is it that I really want to do with the rest of my life? Where is the best place to have a homebase, if any?
There are still so many places that I want to visit. Alaska is still at the top of the list, along with the east coast - Maine, Boston, etc. I have not been to the Pacific Northwest yet or to the southern parts of Arizona. If I purchase a piece of property, then a "camper van" may be in my future, so that I can continue to explore around the country.
I can't imagine "retiring" and just sitting around. I started my 1st business when I was around 26 years old. Before that I sold handcrafts at craft shows in my neighborhood. I was always busy making something, growing something or traveling somewhere. I suppose I will always be a tax preparer, also. I stepped away from that for a few years, but went back to it - it's part of who I am.
Everyone has a "calling" or two? What is yours?
I've recently read that there is a trend with retirees wanting to stay in urban areas, with convenient access to services and entertainment. A walkable community with a good public transportation system.
I would like to attend this event in 2017
but I'll be at work doing tax returns.

Taylor continues to serve by running for City Council
"Service above self," is the mission statement of the Rotary Foundation, one that Dan Taylor said he lives his life by. The former newspaper publisher said he wants to make a positive difference in Burleson, his home for the past 12 years, and for this reason, he is running for City Council Place three.
"It's a great feeling knowing you can make a difference by serving others and if I can be a part of making Burleson an even greater place for citizens to live and raise their families, I know it will be a rewarding experience," Taylor said.
Taylor currently serves on the City of Burleson Parks and Recreation Board. He is also a member of the Burleson Area Chamber of Commerce and is on the board of directors and is a member of the chamber ambassador club.
If elected, Taylor said safety for all citizens will be his number one priority. He also wants to practice fiscal responsibility and wants to explore all sources of revenue, while also practicing a smart savings plan for the city.
"Are there money saving opportunities already in place that may have been overlooked," Taylor said. "Opportunities which won't place a burden on taxpayers? Families on a budget know that spending money just because they have it isn't always the best idea. As we grow, so will revenue, which means Burleson's 2017-2018 budget of about $92 million will grow without the need for tax increases. Given the opportunity to serve I promise to keep a close eye on expenditures while providing quality services required to increase the quality of life for the citizens of Burleson."
Taylor said he wouldn't change anything the current City Council is doing, but there is always room for improvement. Strategic planning for growth is a necessity, he said. Taylor also wants to partner with local school districts to ensure the safety of children at school.
"I plan to work with other council members to address these issues and to ensure that the future of Burleson remains bright."

Objectives Our purpose was to evaluate the heterogeneity and validity of composite end points, major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in particular, in cardiology research.
Background The term MACE is a commonly used end point for cardiovascular research. By definition, MACE is a composite of clinical events and usually includes end points reflecting safety and effectiveness. There is no standard definition for MACE, as individual outcomes used to make this composite end point vary by study. This inconsistency calls into question whether use of MACE in cardiology research is of value.
Methods We conducted a 2-phase literature review on the use of MACE as a composite end point: 1) studies that have compared use of bare-metal versus drug-eluting stents; and 2) studies published in the Journal in calendar year 2006. We subsequently tested 3 different definitions of MACE during 1-year of follow-up among 6,922 patients in the DEScover registry who received at least 1 drug-eluting stent.
Results The review identified substantial heterogeneity in the study-specific individual outcomes used to define MACE. Markedly different results were observed for selected patient subsets of acute myocardial infarction (MI) (vs. no MI) and multilesion stenting (vs. single-lesion stenting) according to the various definitions of MACE.
Conclusions Varying definitions of composite end points, such as MACE, can lead to substantially different results and conclusions. Therefore, the term MACE, in particular, should not be used, and when composite study end points are desired, researchers should focus separately on safety and effectiveness outcomes, and construct separate composite end points to match these different clinical goals.
The term MACE, defined as "major adverse cardiac events," is arguably the most commonly used composite end point in cardiovascular research. Historically, the term MACE appears to have originated in the mid-1990s with its use restricted primarily to in-hospital complications related to percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) (1,2). Today, however, even though there is no standard definition of MACE, it is routinely used and reported for procedural, short-term, and long-term outcome evaluations, and may involve other cardiovascular treatments.
By definition, MACE, as well as all other composite end points, include multiple types of clinical events of varying degrees of relatedness. At the broadest level, definitions of MACE in use today include end points that reflect both the safety and effectiveness of various treatment approaches. This apparent mixing of "apples and oranges" and inconsistency calls into question whether use of MACE is of value. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the validity and utility of MACE as a composite research study end point, with the corresponding results presumably applicable to composite end points at large.
To evaluate the usefulness of MACE as an end point, we conducted a literature review followed by an empirical analysis. The literature review was performed to determine the heterogeneity of MACE. The empirical analysis tested the influence of different definitions on the interpretation of clinical investigations.
Literature review and data abstraction
We arbitrarily considered, a priori, 2 unrelated approaches of inquiry. In the first approach, we sought to query clinical trials that addressed a timely and relevant research question. We identified randomized clinical trials (RCTs) that have compared the use of drug-eluting stents (DES) to bare-metal stents (BMS) in PCI, and have reported MACE as either a primary or secondary end point. To achieve this, we searched the MEDLINE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases using the medical terms: bare-metal stents, drug-eluting stents, sirolimus, everolimus, rapamycin, paclitaxel, taxane, and taxol for calendar years 2002 to 2007. We then used the search terms MACE, major adverse cardiac events, or major clinical adverse events for the same years. We combined the searches with the limit term of clinical trial. We eliminated any report that did not describe primary trial results. Additionally, the bibliographies of the selected papers were reviewed along with those of several meta-analyses and pooled analysis articles for relevant trials (3–9). A total of 20 RCTs comparing any DES and BMS and reporting MACE as an end point were identified (10–29).
In the second approach, we sought to investigate the use of MACE at large (i.e., irrespective of a specific research question). Thus, we searched the MEDLINE database using the terms MACE, major adverse cardiac events, or major clinical adverse event. For practical reasons, we restricted this search to the Journal (J Am Coll Cardiol) for calendar year 2006. This resulted in the identification of 27 articles (23,29–54).
For each review, the individual outcomes that made up the definition of MACE were identified and abstracted independently by 2 reviewers (K.K., K.H.). Reviewer discrepancies in the individual outcomes of MACE were resolved by consensus.
Empirical analysis
Based on the results of the literature review, we constructed 3 definitions of MACE relevant to the setting of PCI. Included was a definition postulated to relate primarily to safety (death, myocardial infarction [MI], or stent thrombosis [ST]), and 2 definitions postulated to relate to both safety and effectiveness: 1) death, MI, ST, or target vessel revascularization (TVR); and 2) death, MI, ST, or any repeat revascularization).
Using the various constructed definitions, we evaluated 1-year risk of MACE in the DEScover registry (55). Briefly, DEScover is a prospective, multicenter, observational study designed to characterize PCI patients from a broad sampling of 140 hospitals across the U.S. The only exclusion criteria were patient refusal or inability to provide written informed consent and/or Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 authorization. Baseline clinical and angiographic characteristics and procedural and clinical in-hospital events were recorded for the enrolled patients. Follow-up was obtained from patients at 1, 6, and 12 months by a central telephone facility. For those patients reporting an event, a specially trained research coordinator then obtained additional information.
The present investigation was restricted to the 6,922 patients in DEScover who received at least 1 DES and did not initially present with cardiogenic shock. We assessed variation in 1-year risk of MACE using the different definitions and 2 types of patient subset comparisons. In the first type, we sought to compare patient subsets at increased risk for adverse events. In this scenario, we were interested in the influence of various definitions in regard to long-term safety, but not necessarily effectiveness. Thus, we selected and compared patients presenting with versus without acute MI. For the second subgroup analysis, we sought to compare definitions among patient subsets who might be at greater risk for lesion recurrence. This analysis would assess the impact of definitions on long-term effectiveness, but not necessarily safety. Thus, we selected and compared patients with multiple versus 1 lesion treated with PCI. We had initially considered comparing patients treated with BMS versus DES, but in DEScover, only 5% of patients received BMS and their baseline characteristics are very different (i.e., potential selection bias) from those who received DES.
For each comparison, adjusted hazard ratios were estimated by use of Cox proportional hazards regression. Covariates adjusted for included age, gender, urgent or emergent presentation, smoking status, number of diseased vessels, and history of diabetes, congestive heart failure, peripheral vascular disease, renal dysfunction or dialysis, or pulmonary disease. Analyses were performed using the SAS system version 9.0 (SAS Institute, Cary, North Carolina).
Literature review and data abstraction
As seen in Table 1 in the RCTs that have compared DES with BMS, all included death as a component of MACE; however, the balance between the use of all-cause mortality versus cardiac-only mortality was about equal. In addition, MI was included as part of MACE in all trials with only 1 trial restricting the definition to Q-wave MI. For the remaining components of MACE, the trials were variable with a minority including ST, all including either target lesion revascularization (TLR) or TVR, and a few including coronary artery bypass grafting or stroke. Thus, even with a very specific research question (DES vs. BMS), it is clear that there was no consensus definition of MACE.
In the review of publications in the Journal for calendar year 2006, the results were more variable (Table 2). Like the RCT review, death and MI were included in all definitions of MACE, although in the Journal review, nearly all included all-cause mortality rather than cardiac-only mortality. The remaining components of MACE were highly variable, with most including a repeat revascularization component (e.g., TLR, TVR) and a range of other outcomes including stroke, acute coronary syndrome, restenosis on angiographic follow-up evaluation, and congestive heart failure hospitalization. Thus, in the absence of a specific research question (i.e., DES vs. BMS), the definition of MACE was even more heterogeneous.
Empirical investigation
For the 3 constructed definitions of MACE, the numbers of incident events during 1-year follow-up in the DEScover registry were as follows: 1) death, MI, or ST (362 events); 2) death, MI, ST, or TVR (674 events); and 3) death, MI, ST, or any repeat revascularization (868 events). Thus, when TVR was added to the safety end point of death, MI, or ST, the number of incident events nearly doubled. When any repeat revascularization was added to the safety definition of MACE, the number of incident events increased 2.4-fold.
In the first comparison (Fig. 1, top), patients presenting with acute MI (vs. no acute MI) were at significantly higher adjusted risk of the safety only definition of MACE (death, MI, or ST) (adjusted hazard ratio 1.75, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.31 to 2.34). In contrast, when TVR was added to the definition of MACE, the adjusted risk associated with the presentation of acute MI was substantially attenuated (diluted) and no longer statistically significant (adjusted hazard ratio 1.20, 95% CI 0.95 to 1.51). Similar results were observed when any repeat revascularization rather than TLR was part of the MACE definition (adjusted hazard ratio 1.14, 95% CI 0.92 to 1.40).
In the second comparison (Fig. 1, bottom), the use of multilesion PCI versus single-lesion PCI was not significantly associated with the safety only definition of MACE (death, MI, or ST) (adjusted hazard ratio 1.06, 95% CI 0.77 to 1.48). In contrast, when TVR was added to the definition of MACE, the adjusted hazard ratio associated with multilesion PCI was substantially higher and statistically significant (adjusted hazard ratio 1.41, 95% CI 1.13 to 1.75).
In this analysis, we have shown that in clinical investigations, there is significant heterogeneity in the individual outcomes used to define composite end points such as MACE, and depending on the particular set of clinical outcomes used, widely different results and conclusions may be obtained even within a single study. In particular, in the setting of PCI, when mixing outcomes presumed to relate to safety (i.e., death, MI, ST) with outcomes presumed to relate to procedural effectiveness (e.g., TVR or repeat revascularization at large), the influence of postulated risk factors (e.g., acute MI) and procedural strategies (e.g., multilesion PCI) may be substantially attenuated or increased. Collectively, these observations warrant a reappraisal of the use of MACE and composite end points at large.
Given the seemingly obvious heterogeneity in individual safety and effectiveness outcomes used to construct MACE, one wonders why its use has become so pervasive in cardiology research. Importantly, when the term MACE was initially used, its purpose was to evaluate the "net effect," that is, both the potential utility (effectiveness) and hazardousness (safety) of a new acute intervention. In that setting, its use was warranted in order to assess the true overall acute effect of a particular intervention. Unfortunately, over the years the use of MACE has extended to reporting of intermediate- and long-term outcomes in which both effectiveness and safety outcomes are put together, even when one is not necessarily interested in assessing the "net effect" of a particular intervention. Thus, this use of MACE, as shown in our analysis, can lead to different conclusions and interpretations of the "effect" of a particular intervention.
A second primary reason that may explain the widespread use of MACE in cardiology research is a general belief that using multiple outcomes to construct a definition of MACE will yield a large number of incident events that, in turn, will increase statistical power to demonstrate statistical significance. While this may occur in many circumstances, it is by no means absolute since, as shown in our analysis, some definitions of MACE may substantially attenuate relative risks (i.e., effect of acute MI), which would tend to bias results away from statistical significance.
A third possible reason, as stated in a recent editorial (56), is the potential for certain sponsors to "game" their trials by construction and use of a particular composite outcome. For example, as recently demonstrated (57), individual component outcomes that are considered minor (e.g., nonfatal angina) or moderate (e.g., coronary revascularization) tend to occur more frequently than deaths or other critical outcomes (e.g., cardiac arrest). Therefore, an apparent positive effect of a particular therapy may be present primarily, or exclusively, for only the individual outcomes that are of lesser clinical importance (57,58). By analogy, this circumstance was observed in our analysis of the effect of multilesion versus single-lesion PCI when the outcome of repeat revascularization (i.e., lesser clinical importance and more common than death, MI, or ST) was added to the definition of MACE, and statistically significant results emerged.
The potential for misleading conclusions depending on the study-specific definition of MACE used is not trivial. Consider a comparison of BMS to DES in which the definition of MACE includes TVR; if the latter had a lower hazard ratio of having MACE, one could erroneously conclude that DES are significantly better at reducing death, MI, ST, and TVR in totality, even though the "significant" effect on MACE would likely be being driven primarily or solely by a reduction in TVR.
In light of the approximate prior 15 years use of the term MACE and its wide heterogeneity in definition and research applications, it is unlikely that a consensus definition will either be universally desired or practical for future research. Therefore, we recommend against the routine use of MACE as a composite end point at large. However, if a broad heterogeneous composite end point such as MACE is ultimately desired, minimally, it must be clearly defined, and the individual as well as composite end points need to be analyzed, presented, and discussed. If different definitions are used for even 1 component of the composite end point, rates of the composite end point may vary widely. To illustrate, in TAXUS-I (12), only Q-wave MI was included in the definition of MACE, and there were no MIs at 30 days or 1-year in either the TAXUS or control groups. In contrast, in TAXUS-V among patients with complex disease (25), the 30-day MACE rates of 5.1% and 3.6% in the TAXUS and control groups, respectively, were dominated by the inclusion of non–Q-wave MI rates of 4.4% and 3.3%, respectively.
Our general recommendation against the use of MACE is consistent with that of the Academic Research Consortium (ARC) (59), which has aimed to establish consensus definitions for both individual and composite DES study end points. The ARC has suggested 2 composite end points for DES trials: a device-oriented and overall patient-oriented end point, whereas for cardiology studies at large (i.e., not restricted to DES trials), we recommend focusing separately on safety and effectiveness outcomes, and constructing separate composite (and sample size calculations, among others) end points that contain well-defined internally coherent components to match these different clinical entities.

Sia released her 7th studio album, and it is good. Very good. Once I realized that the album was available on iTunes, I didn't even think – it was already downloading.
Tag: Sia Furler
Wild Ones
As you know, Sia is one of my favorite artists. She's both mainstream and famous without being mainstream and famous. Not many artists can do that nowadays. Lately, Sia's been in two mainstream singles so to speak: David Guetta's 'Titanium' and now Flo Rida's 'Wild Ones.' But the thing is, she's in neither of their music videos. Yes, she is what they call 'featured' on these tracks, but she sings all of 'Titanium' and the chorus of 'Wild One,' so she should be in their videos as Sia fans argue.
However, Sia herself is the reason why she's not in the videos. She simply isn't in a rush to be famous.
Sia is so admirable. Her voice is one-of-a-kind, and her style and image is fun and different in a way that doesn't mimic Gaga or Minaj in any way.
But back to this song…
The last time I actually listened to a Flo Rida song was back to the summer of 'Low,' and now I can't even listen to it in its entirety. But the fact that Sia is on this single, and the fact that I still blast 'Clap Your Hands' in the car, this track is replayable on my playlists. Definitely a good spring track, especially since today's officially the first day of spring!
Clap Your Hands
Not many people know about the Australian singer Sia. Those who do likely discovered her through her appearance on The Voice or as the featured singer on the David Guetta track "Titanium."
I discovered Sia through her older single "Clap Your Hands."
The single, however, came out in 2010, so I can't exactly be hipster and say I discovered her ages ago.
I first heard the song in a Hollister store in my mall. Then another day, I heard it again in I think a Bath & Body Works store. When I heard the song yet again in a movie theatre bathroom (which was, oddly, adjacent to the mall), I was like That's it, I'm Shazaming it!
It was one of those songs that grows on you. And once it's grown, you absolutely love it and can't get enough … even two years later. Take a listen!
Again, don't ask me about the music video. I guess a lot of music I listen to comes attached with unique music videos.
So this song; it's got a beat to it without being an obnoxious mainstream club hit. It's humble, but isn't lethargic. It's got a unique sound to it. Bubbly, upbeat, happy, and a bit quirky, the song is one of my favorite tracks for the summer. The instrumentation reminds me about the beach. I love the beach. A lot.
And if you think this song is good, give a listen to the whole album We Are Born. It's different, yet original and catchy! 😀
*Footnote: Once I downloaded the single, I added it as the first song on a mixtape-CD I burned for my car (which I had just got). So this song will always remind me about driving my new (pre-owned) car in the summer. Good memories… 🙂

While writing ASYLUM, I turned to some of the following hospitals and institutions for inspiration, to bring in that real world touch. Some of the stories and histories I stumbled across were almost too intense and gruesome to be believed.
I. Norwich State Hospital for the Insane
Preston, Connecticut 1904 ― 1996
When most people think of an asylum, they probably picture a giant looming mansion that looks something like Norwich State Hospital for the Insane. It has one of those iconic, red brick exteriors with columns and a steep roof. The hospital is also notable for its maze of underground passageways. It's considered by creep and ghost aficionados to be extremely haunted. Several shows have featured the hospital, including the popular series Ghost Hunters.
II. Whittingham Asylum
Lancashire, England 1869 ― 1995
Whittingham Asylum, charming and even quaint on the outside, makes the list if only for its sheer size. Whittingham was virtually a miniature city, and its expansive grounds included a brewery, post office, and even its own brass band. It was also the sight of some seriously scary allegations, with an inquiry in the 1960s that included reports of cruelty and fraud, complaints that were kept quiet with threats. Reportedly, some wards were infested with vermin, while others were left freezing cold. There were even rumors of a "wet towel treatment" involving a cold, wet towel wrapped around the patient's neck until they passed out.
III. Waverly Hills Sanatorium
Louisville, Kentucky 1910 ― 1962
The architecturally stunning Waverly Hills was built to house a sudden influx of tuberculosis patients in the county, but closed after only fifty years when medical advances rendered the facility obsolete. Considered to be one of the most haunted hospitals in the eastern United States, it has played host to scores of reality TV shows about the paranormal, including Scariest Places on Earth and Ghost Hunters. It gets creepier―there are currently plans to renovate the hospital into a hotel for those looking to have a spooky spot to stay.
IV. Lier Mental Hospital
Buskerud County, Norway 1926 ― 1986
Perhaps the scariest thing about Lier Mental Hospital is its murky involvement in experimentation linked to pharmaceutical companies from the United States. This postwar hospital was used for experimentation and research into lobotomies, LSD, electroshock therapy and more.
V. Topeka State Hospital
Topeka, Kansas 1872 ― 1997
Topeka State Hospital may look cute and charming on the outside, but on the inside it was home to some unbelievably dark rumors. By far the creepiest allegations leveled against the hospital? (Brace yourself, it's pretty gross.) There are stories of patients strapped down for so long that their skin began to grow around the straps. Yeesh. Nowadays, you can sometimes hear music playing from inside the abandoned hospital and spot shadows peering out at the windows.Interviews
HB: The imagery was so vivid in ASYLUM and the photographs throughout were just gorgeous―was it based on anywhere you've visited personally?
MR: The admittedly limited travel I've done in Europe included some incredible ruins and castles. There's a feeling you get in those places, a sort of wonder and terror that you just don't feel in new buildings. I tried to draw on those memories for Brookline. I also grew up in an old Victorian farmhouse, and . . . I don't want to say it's haunted but there were certainly times it felt haunted. To this day, when I visit my parents, I feel eyes on me at night in the hallway. The hairs on the back of your neck go up and you can sense there's history there present with you. I wanted that same feeling to come through with Brookline.
HB: I felt really connected to Dan Crawford, your main character. What part of your fabulous mind did he come from?
MR: I was kind of a weird kid. I loved school. I wasn't so much a loner as a gigantic nerd, always with my nose in a book or writing my own scripts and stories. There's a good bit of my own insecurities and childhood memories in Dan; that same geek pride mixed with a constant fear that maybe life would be easier if I veered more toward the mainstream. Writing a male perspective is intimidating in the sense that I wanted it to feel authentic, so I would stop every once in a while and ask a friend if it was reading correctly to them. Having honest buddies helped, it always does for writing. They weren't shy about saying, "I'm sorry but no guy would do/think/act that way, try again."
HB: Has horror always appealed to you? If not, why now, why this story? If so . . . well . . . same question.
MR: The first two novels I did had a certain creep factor, too, since they were about zombies and survival. The irony here is that I'm a huge wuss when it comes to scary movies. I spent most of Cabin In the Woods whimpering in someone else's lap. I'm not good with scary movies or gore or anything like that, but I find myself drawn to that kind of story again and again. It's like I know it's going to keep me up all night but I can't help myself. I think that's probably common, though . . . . We all test ourselves now and again, see where our boundaries and limits are. I get a kick out of pushing those limits for myself and exploring the darker parts of my imagination. My life isn't all that adventurous, so writing darker stories gives me a chance to indulge in the more morbid thoughts that cross my mind.
HB: I know you probably get asked this a lot, but what's your favorite piece of writing advice for the writers out there?
MR: It comes from Neil Gaiman and is infuriatingly straightforward and simple. "How do you do it? You do it. You write. You finish what you write." And it's true. As I'm sure you know, there's no magic button. Sometimes you can't write a sentence and other times you can't stop, but just sitting down and making yourself do it is the key. You have to practice. You have to do the work, over and over. He also has another great piece of advice somewhere (I'm an unabashed Neil fangirl, I can't help it) about getting out and living life, and not feeling upset or pressured if you don't have a huge well of experience to draw on. The best inspiration comes from falling in love, falling out of it, getting your heart broken, just being present and showing up, you know? You won't have anything to draw from if you guard yourself too closely. You have to risk life changing you in order to have something there to write about.
HB: What's next from the shadowed mind of Madeleine Roux? What are you working on, and when can I have it? :)
MR: I'm notorious for starting new projects and then abandoning them, but I've had a gritty YA fantasy series cooking in my head for a while now. I've been taking down tons of notes for it and I've even started a few chapters, so right now I hope that has wings and takes off. You can have it the second I manage to get it all down!

Award-winning Spanish architect and designer Patricia Urquiola is known for her iconic pieces that encapsulate her inimitable creative sensibilities. We pick out 8 signature pieces of hers that we love.
1) 570 Gender chair
Instantly recognisable thanks to its unique shape, the Gender is a colour-blocked chair that visually separates the soft padded seat from the rigid leather-lined frame. The enveloping chair is designed to respond to the body, and reclines about 12 inches under body weight and returns to its original position after.
The chair is available at Space Furniture.
2) Credenza sideboard
Designed in collaboration with graphic artist Frederico Pepe for Milan boutique Spazio Pontaccio, the Credenza is a capsule collection of cabinets, screens and low tables all featuring stained glass.
The sideboard is a cult favourite amongst Urquiola fans. Get it here.
3) Caboche lights
Designed by Urquiola and Eliana Gerotto for Foscarini, the Caboche is a series of lamps with a band of sparkling chromed metal and glass spheres. Copied extensively since their launch, these lights may be a common sight in many homes, but nothing really comes close to the original.
Get the Caboche lamps from Xtra.
4) 552 Floe Insel sofa
Since 2015, Urquiola has been the art director of Italian furniture manufacturer Cassina, and the 552 Floe Insel sofa is one of her designs for the brand. The sofa mimics the shape of an iceberg, an imagery she couldn't shake out of her head after a trip she took from Iceland to Greenland.
Get the sofa from Space Furniture.
5) Origami Living table
Inject a pop of playful colour into your living space with this bendy beauty. For this pink and yellow combination, pink onyx and onyx Nuvolato were used and bent at a 90-degree-angle to form the top and support.
Get it here.
6) Visioni B rug
Have a little fun with this colour-blocked rug that appears three-dimensional with their geometric shapes and black outlines. Made with 100% Himalayan wool, the Visioni B is one of two rug designs by Urquiola for Italian rug company Cc-Tapis.
Bag it here.
7) Palaver chair
Luxury house Louis Vuitton recently collaborated with several renowned designers to launch their Objet Nomades collection of travel-inspired home accessories. As one of the designers for the collection, Urquiola contributed the Palaver chair, which is made with a wooden frame and leather seat.
Find out more here.
8) Overlay bowl
Another piece by Urquiola for LV's Objet Nomades collection is the Overlay bowl. Made with four assembled sheets of LV leather, the piece makes a great sculptural statement.

Researchers from CARTIF present in Ciudad Rodrigo (Salamanca) the second part of RENERPATH project, whose main objective is the development of methodologies of energy rehabilitation in order to improve the heritage preservation.
During the first phase of the project, between 2011 and 2013, CARTIF carried out a methodological guide of energy rehabilitation that was applied in the Cathedral of Ciudad Rodrigo and in episcopal palace in Pinhel (Portugal). The main innovation of this part of RENERPATH was the use of a laser scanner to detect humidity in these buildings, a pioneering technology in Europe.
In this second part, the consortium is going to stablish criteria to characterize each chosen building energetically and will be applied technologies such as thermography, 3D digitalization, thermoflumometry or energy simulations. From there, specific techniques will be defined in order to establish general guidelines common to all construction of the same type and thus create a 'Best Practice Book' at European level on how to carry out energy efficiency actions in heritage buildings.
The actions will be applied in seven different buildings (yet to decide); one in Ciudad Rodrigo, three in other places of Castilla y León, and three in the north and the centre of Portugal. The interventions will be carried out throughout 2018.
CARTIF lead the project and the rest of members of the consortium are Dirección General de Patrimonio Cultural de la Junta de Castilla y León, Ente Público Regional de la Energía de Castilla y León (EREN), Fundación Ciudad Rodrigo 2006, Direção Regional de Cultura do Norte (DRCN), Centro Tecnológico da Cerâmica e do Vidro (CTCV) and the Agência Regional de Energia e Ambiente do Interior (ENERAREA).

Last year I posted a story about an internet petiton to convince the Olympic Committee to let former Doctor Who star David Tennant light the 2012 Olympic Flame.
See, back in 2006 there was an episode of Doctor Who in which the Doctor and Rose skipped ahead a few years to 2012. The episode frankly wasn't very good, but it was notable for one thing: at the end, the Doctor picks up the Torch and lights the Olympic Flame in full view of the world at large.
As 2012 came closer, fans of the show realized that it would be pretty darn cool if David Tennant actually lit the torch for real, making a small part of the TV series come true. Hey, it's either that or convince DARPA to build a working TARDIS.
I'm happy to report the petition worked. Sort of.
This past Saturday, current Doctor Matt Smith carried the Torch through Cardiff, Wales, which just happens to be where the series is filmed.
So the Doctor lit the Flame after all! Except it wasn't the right Doctor. And he didn't actually light anything, he just carried the Torch. And it was in the wrong venue. In the wrong city. On the wrong date. At the wrong time of day. But hey, other than that, it was exactly like it happened in the episode!

Using our lodge as a base you can enjoy a different walk every day. Each is a different experience filled with interaction into the daily lives of locals living in this remote part of the world. On some walks you might stop at a local farmer's home for tea and a picnic lunch. There are endless opportunities for photographs.
Walking excursions in Haa are not physically demanding, usually last around five hours, and you return to the lodge in time for afternoon tea. This will leave you plenty of time to explore the village, visit local homes or temples, or enjoy a traditional stone bath.
Lechuna Heritage Lodge is an authentic, renovated Bhutanese farm house. The main building was the house of the owner's Grandmother. When he decided to convert it to a lodge, it was paramount for him to maintain all the charms of the village home, which he has deep memories of. We have done all we could to keep the experience real.

Fall 2018 Construction Project
Construction Start Date Pushed Back to October
Since reporting in our Fall 2018 newsletter that construction would begin Monday, September 16th, 2018, the project start date has been pushed back to Monday, October 8th, 2018. The duration of the project is expected to last five (5) weeks.
The scope of the project includes the installation of a wall along the south edge of the second floor Youth Services Department. The design is intended to eliminate safety issues and cut down noise transferred between floors. At the same time, crews will be replacing ceiling tiles and installing new, brighter LED light fixtures above the first floor reading area and Teen space.
Minimal closures are anticipated. At this point, the Library is set to close from Monday, October 22nd through Wednesday, October 24th. For the rest of the project, staff are expected to be able to offer all services as usual, with minor interruptions possible. Usual operating hours will remain intact, unless otherwise noted. When visiting the Library during daytime construction hours, expect varying level of construction noise. Temporary construction walls will be utilized to separate the construction from patron spaces on both floors.
Updates regarding closures and changes of hours of operating hours will be posted in the building, on our website, and on our Facebook page as early as possible. We apologize in advance for any unexpected disruption in services caused by this construction project.
At this time we would also like to share our gratitude for the Roselle Public Library Foundation, which has pledged $15,000 toward the new light fixtures.
Check back with us in late November to see the finished product. Our plan is to have everything finished by Celebrate the Season and the 3rd Annual Cocoa Crawl.

According to The Register, Operating Systems Solutions (OSS) are suing Apple over what, on the face of it, looks like nothing more than saving the machine state to allow fast reboot – aka Hibernation.
The patent in question is over at The US Patent Office.
If you're a developer, state saving as a means of enabling the quick startup of an application or the quick creation and population of an object is a standard item in the toolbox.
But is this just another shot across the bows in the on-going Patent War taking place in the smartphone market? The patent would appear to have been originally granted to LG Electronics who, some say, are spoiling for a fight with Apple over Android.
To me this is just another example of an absurdly obvious patent being sat on until it's useful to the holder.
Is a "Use It or Lose It" clause long overdue? My opinion is that it may well help technology innovation by ridding us of the process where absurd patents are granted and subsequently held, quietly, until there is some potential income to be generated or competitor to pursue.
It'll be interesting to see how the America Invents Act fares in Congress after the August recess.

Tequila shots were prolly a bad idea. In fact, it's 1500 right now and I can still feel the burn in my esophagus.
But part one of the birthday celebrations went well. It was a little lackluster but I think it's because I had really really high expectations and of course nothing can ever compare to the "perfect" night.
My friends and I pre-gamed before going out dancing at the local (read: sketchy) bar. I definitely had a blast dancing away! However all the drinking definitely left me feeling a little out of it as I hadn't drunk enough to be drunk but I definitely wasn't sober. I think that the fact that I A) wasn't well hydrated (oops) and B) hadn't eaten a lot prior to drinking (double oops) left me feeling in a lightheaded state. But I still had lots of fun 🙂
So that coupled with the fact that I could feel my legs being slow and fatigued while dancing led me to *gasp* take a rest day. Definitely LONG overdue. But my stupid body wouldn't let me enjoy the extra two hours of sleep that I wanted to take advantage of. Boo! But it did feel really nice to be able to lay in bed with my quilt wrapped around me and listen to the wind that I was NOT out in haha.
All this lack of sleep + running lots + partying lots finally caught up to me today and I was soooo out of it (I even skipped one of my classes *gasp*. The only reason I didn't skip more was because I had to physically turn things in. Boo!) I'm definitely not hungover (record secure!) but I'm out of it enough that my Spanish prof totally called me out on it in class today as I wasn't able to participate with the usual enthusiasm that I give. And of course my friend next to me goes (in Spanish) "Too much tequila last night" haha. But with this prof it wasn't really all that awkward. But still slightly embarrassing to be called out.
And I was no out of it that I *almost* didn't respond when Hot Spanish TA said hi to me in the hallway as I was waiting for one of my classes. Nothing special but still, it was a little boost this morning 🙂
So not much running today (well none actually) but I'm gearing up for my 23k run tmrw. The weather forecast looks horrendous as Hurricane Ida will be blessing us with her presence but I think I can do it. What better present to myself that a long run in a Nor'Easter? I'm so bamf that I'll rock it hahaha.
Off to go privately tutor a kid in statistics. He contacted me earlier this week and despite my school having a really good — and FREE — tutoring program (of which I am a part of in both stats and physics) he wants to pay me. So between yesterday, today and Sunday I'm tutoring him for 4 hours total and he already wrote me a $100 check for my time. Holllllleeeerrrrrrr. So I better go earn that cash!
And then: Birthday Round 2 haha

Some Things to Remember to Find the Right Air Compressor You Need
It can be hard to choose the right air compressor for your air tools for your work or home. There is a great deal of information that you can find about the compressors and they actually differ from one model to the next. It is really important that you know where you should be looking for air compressor information and find the best air compressor for your requirements. Before you buy your next air compressor, there are important pieces of information that you should be looking for.
What you must take into consideration first is the amount of the air pressure you require. Depending on where the air compressor was actually made, you will be able to find the pressure rating in various ways. This can be in the BAR rating or the pounds per square inch rating. This is actually the amount of air that is delivered from the compressor to the tool.
You need to remember too that the tools can provide you with the amount of airflow that you actually need to ensure that they run properly. The information can be provided through CFM or LPM. This is an essential information that you require to be able to know quickly the air compressor that you must choose to deliver the air to your tools so that they can work in an effective manner.
For those who want to run more than one tool at the same time, then you should add up the amount of the airflow each minute that you need to run all of them. Such is the minimum amount of the air flow required from the compressor each minute. It is not necessary to add up the pressure requirements but you need to take the requirement of the biggest tool and make sure that your compressor can meet this need.
Moreover, you need to consider the amount of wasted air that occurs. Over time, the tools can start to leak. Once you have the minimum amount of airflow from the compressor, the tools may deteriorate in their effectiveness. It is very important that you consider purchasing an air compressor that can deliver a bit more than just the minimum.
When you choose the air compressor, then there are other consideration that you must make. In order to run tools, then it is not necessary to worry on oil-free air or the using of filters on the compressor. You should consider the amount of moisture in the air, the compressor's noise level and the temperature of the compressed air. You need to consider the situation as well as the needs of the air compressor.
