Let truth be your calm in the midst of the storms
"And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."
— John 8:32.
"I swear by Almighty God that the evidence I will give is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help me God." Holding the Holy Bible or by affirmation, these words from a judicial clerk are repeated by persons who are witnesses in a case before the courts.
But how many times during cross-examination is it abundantly clear that the truth sworn was not the truth. Sometimes many question the veracity of truth. It is almost like determining what is the worst of the worst crime for murder. Mind you, the person has been brutally and savagely robbed of their life, but the mystery is what is the worst? Truth they say is they would lie for you if they like you, and lie on you if they hate you.
There are times when I write, that I have to be inspired spiritually. With this column, I went to bed not receiving the word for this week, but upon awakening after three in the morning the words pounded in my ear — "ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free." I think the biggest problem we have as a people here in our land, is we are careless with truth. Jesus in our text today is telling us that the truth will not set you, but make, you free. Truth is a powerful weapon and we must begin to use it, no matter what the circumstances will be. For whom the Father makes free is free indeed. It is a sad situation to be saying yes, when you know deep down within the answer is yes. Wow!
Jesus told his hearers, many who call on his name, ask through prayers, preach the word and speak in tongues, but deep down in their innermost being, they are not practicing truth. Many go so far as to testify in long paragraphs of what the Lord is doing for them and saved them from, but deep down they know — that's a lie.
The time has come, and now is when the true worshippers must worship the Father in spirit and in truth. No wonder David asked God to create a new heart within him, so that he may speak truth.
Driving down main street in Munroe, Tallahassee, I saw a man with a sign: I'm hungry and homeless; but as soon as he saw the police, he folded the sign. Going to another section called "over the hill" I saw a man at the intersection where two roads met — he too had a sign that read: "Why lie? I'd love a cold beer" — I blew to him and gave him a dollar. He wasn't hungry nor homeless, he just wanted a Budweiser or Colt 45, maybe. Recently I was introduced to a woman by a friend who called me along life's road. He asked the lady if she read any of my columns and she honestly said no, that she only buys another paper on Thursday to see who died and what the specials are. Sad to say, in many cases that is what Thursday is best known for.
Recently four men voted against a Government sponsored Bill to increase taxes, and people have been engaged in pros and cons conversation in regards to this. Someone said that the worst death of all is for all the hopes, aspirations, and conviction of a person to die. I would think that to say yes when the inside cries no is a heavy burden to bear. Indeed, the yield and reward of conviction is stronger than convenience.
Media personality Christiane Amanpour said that she would rather be truthful than neutral. During the early years of Christianity, many and even up today, are killed because they speak truth of their religious beliefs. The time is now when those who rule over the land must rouse the best of minds to write into law what is best for the people of the land. Laws come and go, but only the word God is unchanged. Change will and must come in our land and indeed in the world. Revelation says that change will come in the twinkling of an eye and so goes our lives and so goes world history and dynasties, kingdoms and empires. We cannot continue to be Yankee Doodles and stick feathers in our national caps and call it macaroni.
It is my constant prayer, especially today when time dictates: The old year's long campaign is o'er; behold a new begun; Not yet is closed the holy war, not yet the triumph won. Out of its still and deep repose we hear the old year say, "Go forth again to meet your foes, ye children of the day." Let truth be your constant companion and your calm in the midst of the storms of life.

text: Participating in game jams is a big challenge. You spend a full weekend working as hard as you can to make a complete game. When I was 16 years old, I was just beginning to learn programming games, but I really wanted to participate in a game jam to test out my skills. I had seen people participate in the Ludum Dare jam before, but had yet to do it myself, so I set out to participate in the Ludum Dare 30. For this jam, I decided I'd team up with my good friend, a very talented artist named Devon. He and I had never worked on a project together and were both nervous to see how it would go. August 22nd, 2014, the Ludum Dare 30 announced the theme "Connected Worlds" and we set off to create our game!

When creating a template function in C++ is there a simple way to have the typename of the template represented as a string? I have a simple test case to show what I'm trying to do (note the code shown does not compile):
#include <stdio.h>
template <typename type>
type print(type *addr)
printf("type is: %s",type);
int main()
int a;
// Would like to print something like:
// type is: int
I think that the typename should be available at compile time when the function is instantiated, but I'm not that familiar with templates and I haven't seen a way to get the typename as a string.
The reason that I want to do this is for some printf type debugging. I have multiple threads running and stepping through with gdb changes the program behavior. So for some things I want to dump information about which functions were executing. It's not too important so if the solution is overly complex I would skip adding this information to my logging function. But if there was a simple way to do this it would be useful information to have.

This is going to be the year that the best builders distinguish themselves from the pack. The substantial sprawl that has occurred in many markets is resulting in very competitive situations where only the strongest will survive.
Supply Now Meeting Demand
Thanks to strong demand from consumers and speculators, home sales have been steadily rising for the last decade. In response to that demand, the building industry has been growing rapidly, buying expensive land close to the job centers and much less expensive land further from the job centers.

SA Water has launched an ambitious plan to achieve zero net electricity costs within the next three years.
The government-owned utility will invest in solar panels on reservoirs, battery storage and thermal energy in the hope of slashing its $55 million annual electricity bill to zero.
"Treating water and wastewater, and pumping both across vast networks is energy intensive, so it's important SA Water continuously manage their electricity usage and costs for the benefit of customers and the environment," Water Minister Ian Hunter said.
SA Water will initially invest $10 million in solar panels to be installed across some of its metropolitan sites and $500,000 in a pilot 50 kilowatt-hour battery storage system at Crystal Brook, north of Adelaide.
Chief executive Roch Cheroux said the business had already reduced its electricity costs by $3 million a year since 2013 by investing in other efficiencies.
"Every step we make towards reaching our target will deliver savings for our business, and therefore our customers," Mr Cheroux said.
The utility's Glenelg Wastewater treatment plant is already 80 per cent energy self-sufficient due to renewable energy generation.

About Chicago Soul
Chicago soul is a style of soul music that arose during the 1960s in Chicago. Along with Detroit, the home of Motown, and Memphis, with its hard-edged, gritty performers (see Memphis soul), Chicago and the Chicago soul style helped spur the album-oriented soul revolution of the early 1970s.
The sound of Chicago soul, like southern soul with its rich influence of black gospel music, also exhibited an unmistakable gospel sound, but was somewhat lighter and more delicate in its approach. Chicago vocal groups tended to feature laid-back sweet harmonies, while solo artists exhibited a highly melodic and somewhat pop approach to their songs. Accompaniment usually featured highly orchestrated arrangements, with horns and strings, by such notable arrangers as Johnny Pate (who largely worked with horns) and Riley Hampton (who specialized in strings). This kind of soul music is sometimes called "soft soul", to distinguish it from the more harsh and gospelly "hard soul" style.

Mila Babicheva (Russian: Мила Бабичева; Japanese: ミラ・バビチェヴァ, Mira Babichevua) is a ladies' singles skater.
Mila is a student of Yakov Feltsman with rink mates Yuri Plisetsky, Georgi Popovich, and Victor Nikiforov.
Mila is currently ranked third in international Ladies' Singles[1], above Sara Crispino.
It was revealed that Mila was dating an ice hockey player before the start of the series, but they broke up sometime before episode 4.[2]
Mila is a fairly tall young woman with short, wavy auburn hair and deep blue eyes. She often wears pink lip gloss. Despite her petite frame, Mila is shown to be very strong, able to lift Yuri above her head.[2] She is usually seen wearing her practice outfit, which consists of a long-sleeved black shirt that bares her midriff, black pants, and pink gloves.
Mila is fun to be around and has quite a sense of humor. She likes to tease Yuri, and also makes fun of Georgi while watching his short program. Mila is also a caring person, paying attention to the well-being of her rink mates. However, she is a force to be reckoned with when provoked, as Yuri mentions that Mila had beaten up her ex-boyfriend when she discovered that he was cheating on her.[2]
Yuri Plisetsky
Mila and Yuri seem to have a casual but close relationship. She treats him as one would a younger brother, teasing him constantly but also offering support when needed. Yuri sometimes refers to Mila as "grandma" (or "old hag" in the English dub).[2] Despite often being annoyed by Mila, Yuri is quite trusting of her and is willing to follow her guidance.
Georgi Popovich
Mila and Georgi are rink mates under Yakov's supervision. They sit together in the audience during the Rostelecom Cup. She knows quite a lot about Georgi's personal life, specifically his breaking up with his ex-girlfriend Anya, and makes jokes about his short program during the Cup of China.
Yakov Feltsman
Yakov is Mila's coach, and she travels with him along with the Russian team. Under Yakov's guidance, Mila was able to enter the Grand Prix Women's Final, along with Sara.
Sara Crispino
Although Sara is a fellow competitor, Mila and Sara are seen to be on good terms. They sit together in the audience at the Rostelecom Cup men's free skate, and she is concerned for Sara when the latter starts crying during Michele's performance. Both of them manage to proceed to the GPF ladies' program, and they sit together at the rinkside.
Victor Nikiforov
Victor is Mila's ex-rink mate, however, there has yet to be any interaction seen between the two of them.
- Yuri's nickname for Mila, which is баба (baba), meaning 'old lady' or 'grandmother' in both Japanese and Russian, might be a play on Mila's surname, Babicheva.
- Mila's hairstyle consists of an undercut that starts from slightly above her ear, although the shaved parts are usually hidden by the outer layers of hair.[3]
- Mila is seen during the Sochi GPF banquet taking pictures of Yuuri pole dancing.[4]
- Mila's name is romanized as so by Kubo Mitsurou but has also been romanized as Mira[1] and Milla[3].

Reform should also be made to encourage innovation, she said.
Education budgets should be spent in the right areas, she said.
More should be done to improve access to good education for children from poor families and prevent dropping-out, she said.

The Government has backed a project to build rooftop properties in London on the top of existing buildings.
They will be part of a £500m project to build more than 11,000 affordable properties across the country, communities secretary James Brokenshire announced.
He said strategic partnerships agreed by Homes England will give successful housing associations the freedom to spend money on the developments with the biggest impact.
Homes will be built on London rooftops in a £9m funding deal with Apex Airspace Developments.
The new homes will help the Government towards its target of building 300,000 properties a year by the mid-2020s.
The properties – which will be built on five sites across the capital – are largely constructed off site before being winched on top of buildings, minimising disruption to residents.
The first of the homes will be completed by the summer – and in total 78 rooftop homes will be built under the three-year deal.
Mr Brokenshire said: 'By providing targeted investment in affordable homes, and funding innovative projects to build rooftop properties, we are making our housing market work for everyone.
'Our £500m funding boost for housing associations will help them build thousands of extra affordable homes – including properties for social rent.'

A diary is where you keep all of your deepest, darkest secrets so it needs to be hidden where no one else can find it. If you're keeping your diary at home, hide it in creative spots where no one would think to look. If you plan to take it to school, try disguising it as a book. You can also keep a diary on your computer if you want to protect it with a password. Just remember to play it cool if someone sees your diary so you don't make them suspicious. It's for your eyes only, after all.
Hiding Your Diary at Home
1Hollow out a book if you'd like to hide your diary on a bookshelf. By disguising your diary inside of a book, it will blend into the rest of the books on your shelf. Choose an old book that you no longer want, then brush Mod Podge along the edges of at least half the pages to glue them together. Using a box cutter, cut a rectangle out of the pages inside that's big enough to hold your diary.[1]
- You can also buy a used book from a bookstore if you don't want to ruin any of the ones you already own.
- There are a lot of videos and tutorials online on how to make a hollowed-out book that you can follow along with.
- To make sure your diary isn't discovered, pick a book that you know your parents or siblings won't want to borrow or read.
2Put your diary in an empty container if you want a creative hiding spot. Your room is likely full of possible things to hide your diary in that no one would ever suspect. For example, place it inside an empty tissue box with a few tissues on top or put it in an empty shoebox in your closet on the top shelf.
- The trick is choosing a spot that no one else would look in. For instance, the bottom of your art supply box is great if you're the only one who uses it, but not good if your sister borrows it sometimes.
- Pick a container that completely camouflages your diary so you can't see any part of it. Make sure that your diary doesn't affect how the container looks, either. If the tissue box is bulging out from the size of the book, for example, your siblings may suspect something is hiding inside.
3Hide your diary underneath or behind things to keep it out of sight. Think of places where your family is unlikely to look. For example, unless you have siblings who borrow your clothes or parents who put your laundry away for you, a dresser drawer can be a very secretive spot. Set your diary at the very bottom of the drawer, then pile your clothes on top so it's completely hidden.[2]
- Put your diary in one of the top drawers of your dresser or desk if you have younger siblings who are more likely to get into bottom drawers.
Other Unique Hiding Spots for Your Diary at Home
Put it under a pile of stuffed animals.
Slip it into your pillowcase.
Zip your diary in an empty purse or backpack.
Attach it to the back of a picture frame.
Slide it behind your TV or computer.
4Tape it under a chair or table if you don't have young siblings. Little kids, especially if they're at the age where they're still crawling, can easily find something stuck to the bottom of a chair, desk, or table. If you don't have siblings or if your brothers or sisters are older and bigger, those spots are safer. Use enough tape so the diary is secure and won't fall down.
- Use strong tape, like duct tape or packing tape, if your diary is heavier.
- Avoid taping your diary underneath your bed. That's an obvious place to hide it and it will likely get found.
5Stash your diary under a loose floorboard if you live in an old house. Older homes often have hardwood floors where some of the boards are loose, so you're able to lift them up slightly. If you have a board in your room that you can raise enough to slip a book into, this is the perfect hiding spot. However, make sure you can get the book back out first.[3]
- For extra protection, place a rug over top of the floorboard.
- Be careful not to pull too hard on the floorboard when you're placing your diary inside. You don't want to damage the floor.
Protecting Your Diary at School
1Keep your diary in a notebook to blend in with your school supplies. Everyone will think you're just writing down what the teacher is saying when really you're writing in your diary. Choose a very plain notebook or composition book so it's not noticeable among your other books.[4]
- If you have a set of matching notebooks, use a similar one for your diary. For example, if all your notebooks are cat-themed, don't make your diary a neon striped notebook. Go with another cat-themed one.
- You can even fill the first couple pages with fake notes so if someone opens it, they'll think it's just your science notebook, for instance.
2Disguise your diary with a boring book cover so no one wants to read it. Pick the dullest, most uninteresting book you have that also has a removable cover. Remove the cover and wrap it around your diary. Make sure your diary is the same size of the original book so that the cover fits perfectly and doesn't look misplaced.[5]
- Good options for boring covers are old textbooks or classic novels that most of your classmates wouldn't want to read.
- Pick a book that's realistic for you to be carrying around if you're taking it to school. For instance, your dad's book on how to fix plumbing problems might be super dull, but your friends will probably ask why you have it, drawing unwanted attention to your diary.
3Make a fake diary if you want your friends to stop trying to find yours. Trick nosy friends by creating a pretend diary. Keep it somewhere that they can see it, like on your desk, so they think they've found the real deal and won't look for your actual diary.
- Design your fake diary to look as realistic as possible. You can even write "My Diary" on the front.
- Write a few pretend entries in your fake diary so it's convincing if they open it up. Of course, don't include any real secrets though!
Making a Secure Electronic Diary
1Keep your diary on your personal laptop so no one else can get to it. Never keep your diary on a public computer or online where someone could find it. The best spot is on the desktop of your laptop.
- If your parents or siblings use your laptop sometimes, set up a different login for them. You can create a guest login so they don't have access to your personal files.
2Save your file under a fake name in a rarely used folder. Give your diary a name that disguises what it actually is. Then save it in a folder that no one would ever look in, like the system folder under the "My Computer" tab.
- For example, instead of naming your file "My Diary," name it something like "Biology Homework" instead.
- On some computers, you can hide entire folders, too. Right-click on the folder, then select "Properties." There will be a box labeled "Hidden" or something similar that you can check. Now, nobody can see the folder.[6]
3Protect your diary with a strong password. Set the privacy controls on your laptop so a password is required for you to log into the computer. If you type your diary in a Microsoft Word document, you can password-protect that specific file, too.[7]
- To password-protect a document, click "Preferences" on the main menu, then "Personal Settings" followed by "Security." Select "Password to Open" to require someone to know the password to even open the file.
How to Pick a Super Safe Password
Make it longer than 12 characters.
Don't use personal information, like your name, birthday, or address.
Avoid commonly-used numbers and words, like "1234" or the word "password."
You can turn an entire sentence into a strong password. For instance, "Eating cheese is delicious" becomes "eatingcheeseisdelicious."
Add special characters, numbers, and different capitalization.[8]
Keeping Your Diary a Secret
1Avoid writing in your diary when there are other people around. Try not to let anyone see you writing in your diary. If they do, they'll know you have one and will probably want to read it or attempt to find it when you're not looking. Only take out your diary when you're completely alone, just to be safe.
- If your diary is disguised, like in a notebook, you can write in it around other people as long as no one is close enough to see what you're writing.
- When you're at home, wait until your parents leave or until everyone else goes to bed before you break out your diary.
2Act natural if someone sees you with it so they don't get suspicious. If you get caught with your diary or writing in it, don't panic. Pretend like it's just any old book, like a notebook for school. Calmly close it, tuck it away, and change the conversation.[9]
- If someone asks what you're doing, say something casual like, "Oh, nothing, just finishing up algebra homework for tomorrow. Cute shirt! Where did you get it?"
- Avoid acting nervous, tripping over your words, or fidgeting. These are all signs you're lying and the other person will likely suspect you're hiding something.
3Write in a secret code so no one can read it except you. This will make writing in your diary more complicated but adds another level of protection in case anyone finds it. Invent your own code or language to write in by mixing up letters or even including numbers. Keep a key, which explains how to read the code, somewhere safe, like in a locked drawer.[10]
- One example of a code is the reverse alphabet. "A" is now "Z," "B" is now "Y," "C" is now "X," and so on. So for instance, you'd write "boy" as "ylb" or "love" as "olev."
- If you're fluent in a language other than your native one, you can write in that. For example, if all of your friends speak English but you're also fluent in Spanish, keep your diary in Spanish.
- But remember, some friends may use translation services like Google Translate to find out what's written in your diary.
- A good place to keep your key is on your phone in the notes app. Don't write the key in your diary because, if someone finds your diary, they'll then be able to translate everything.
Community Q&A
QuestionHow can I hide it if I share a room with my sister?Community AnswerHide it in a place your sister does not look, such as wrapped in a shirt with clothes belonging to you and not her, or a backpack you don't use. You could also hide your diary outside of your room.
QuestionMy mum wants to write in my diary, so codes won't work. I have hardly any hiding spots. What do I do?Community AnswerWhy would she want to write in your diary? Tell your mom that a diary is a personal thing, and if she wants to write in one, she needs her own. You can even buy her one as a present. If she's really insistent, then a) that's creepy and wrong, but b) she's your parent, so you might not be able to stop her - in that case, you could have one shared diary where you write things you don't mind her reading, and get an additional, secret diary for your real private thoughts.
QuestionWhat if I don't have any of these things?Community AnswerTry covering your diary with a T-shirt. Fold your shirt nicely, then tuck the diary inside. Place your folded shirt in the back of your closet or at the bottom of your dresser.
QuestionWhat should I do if someone sees me hiding he diary?Community AnswerPretend that you did not see them, and wait for them to leave. As soon as they leave, get your diary and hide it somewhere else.
QuestionWhen is the best time to write in your diary?Community AnswerWhenever you have some time to yourself, and something to say.
QuestionCan I hide my diary in my locker?Community AnswerYes. You can hide it behind books and under other stuff. If you are really desperate, you could tape the diary to the ceiling of the locker.
QuestionWhy would someone hide their diary in the ceiling?Community AnswerBecause no one would think look in the ceiling. Most people tend to only look in places that are at eye-level. The ceiling is above eye-level.
QuestionWhat if my parents/siblings go in my room a lot? Is there anywhere better to hide it?Community AnswerPerhaps you could find a pocket large enough or a backpack/purse and keep the diary on your person.
QuestionI hid my diary, but I am pretty sure one of the people I wrote bad things about read it. What should I do?Community AnswerSee if the person is acting strangely. If she is, then she probably read your diary, and is hurt. If she is your friend, ask her honestly if she read it. Tell her you are sorry and hopefully you can resolve it.
QuestionHow can you hide it and take it with you or write in it when someone could walk in your door any second?Community AnswerWrite somewhere safe. Go for a walk and take the diary with you. This is very effective if you live in the country as you can just sit up a tree or in a field to write!

text: Just a quick post to introduce a bit of an older project, which got done while the blog was down. I needed a smaller sous vide device. Big Frank was simply too big for cooking small things, like gyro meat loaf. Since the water has to cover the heating element, or melting occurs, I needed a smaller vessel. Introducing Young Frankenvide. He has the same brains and guts as v.2.0, but a smaller body.

determined. Up until the 1990s, it was widely believed that the
earliest mamluks were known as ghilman (another term for slaves, and
broadly synonymous[15]) and were bought by the Abbasid caliphs,
especially al-Mu'tasim (833-842).
By the end of the 9th century, such warrior slaves had become the
dominant element in the military. Conflict between these ghilman and

undermine Britain's access to India. To this end,

Muhammad Ali knew that he would have to deal with the Mamluks if he
wanted to control Egypt. They were still the feudal owners of Egypt
and their land was still the source of wealth and power. However, the
economic strain of sustaining the military manpower necessary to
defend the Mamluks's system from the Europeans and Turks would
eventually weaken them to the point of collapse.[31]
On 1 March 1811, Muhammad Ali invited all of the leading Mamluks to
his palace to celebrate the declaration of war against the Wahhabis in
Arabia. Between 600 and 700 Mamluks paraded for this purpose in Cairo.
Muhammad Ali's forces killed almost all of these near the Al-Azab
gates in a narrow road down from Mukatam Hill. This ambush came to be
known as the Massacre of the Citadel. According to contemporary
reports, only one Mamluk, whose name is given variously as Amim (also
Amyn), or Heshjukur (a Besleney), survived when he forced his horse to
leap from the walls of the citadel.[32]
During the following week an estimated 3,000 Mamluks and their
relatives were killed throughout Egypt, by Muhammad's regular troops.

Trump's claim began to unravel early this month, however, after Rudy Giuliani, a new member of the president's legal team, said Trump had reimbursed Cohen for the sum paid to Daniels - and the president himself subsequently acknowledged the repayment.
On Wednesday, he told CNN that the financial disclosure form Trump's required to send to the Office of Government Ethics was the reason he went public with the news. Cohen's recently revealed financial records confirm that no payment was made by al-Rumaihi or any companies connected to him.
Mr Trump previously denied knowing of the $130,000 payment to Stormy Daniels.
The president was not obliged to mention the payment, but made a decision to do so "in the interest of transparency".
"I am providing both reports to you because you may find the disclosure relevant to any inquiry you may be pursuing", David Apol, acting director of the Office of Government Ethics, wrote to deputy attorney general Rod Rosenstein.
Apol told Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein that he was providing both Trump's 2017 and 2018 disclosures, as potentially "relevant to any inquiry" the Justice Department may be pursuing into the president's filings from previous year.
"It is good that in the face of overwhelming evidence and public pressure, the president came clean about this liability on this year's form", said CREW's Noah Bookbinder. "It appears that these funds may have replenished the account following the payment to Ms. Clifford", read a summary of findings from Avenatti and Associates.
Mr Cohen, whose records relating to the settlement were seized in an FBI raid last month, is now reportedly under criminal investigation.
Trump's Lawyer Michael Cohen Reportedly Asked Qatari Government for $1M in 2016
While the disclosure did not specify the objective of the payment, Mr Cohen has said he paid $130,000 dollars (€109,967) ) to Ms Daniels in the weeks before the 2016 presidential election to keep her from going public about her allegations that she had sex with the married Mr Trump in 2006. Trump and Giuliani have clashed over what the president knew and when he knew it. "We've gotten assurances that we're not involved in it", Giuliani told "The Ingraham Angle" on Fox News.
Mr Trump has at least $315 million in debt, about the same as he reported a year ago.
The panel's assessment contradicts a conclusion in March by the House Intelligence Committee rejecting allegations that the Kremlin had aimed to boost the Republican candidate's chances.
Mr. Trump's golf clubs also had substantial revenue: his golf club in Jupiter, Florida made $14 million, while Bedminster brought in $15 million.
The president even collected pensions, including $64,804 from the Screen Actors Guild.
The disclosure also provides a glimpse at the financial state of the president's businesses whose daily operations are now being handled by his family.
His Washington hotel in a former Post Office building brought in more than $40m in 2017, its first full year in operation.
Trump's income from the Trump International Hotel in Washington, which has come under scrutiny for being a top choice for foreign dignitaries, almost doubled, from about $20 million in the 2016 report to just over $40 million past year.

Trough, 2017
Found trough, scrap metal from Peter Pitseolak High School, waterworks
On the cow pastures in Appenzellerland in Switzerland, stone fountains, which the artist encountered nearly every day during his stay, are used as drinking troughs for the animals. A couple with a farm nearby the Kunstgiesserei gave Farmer such a fountain with the inscription "1939"—the epitome of a catastrophic year. The artist collected the scrap metal elements that are installed inside the trough from the "skeleton" of the burned down high school in Cape Dorset, Canada.

Terahertz (THz) imaging is effective in distinguishing between cancerous, healthy, and fatty tissues in breast tumors, but a challenge remains in the contrast between cancerous and fibroglandular (healthy) tissues. This work investigates carbon-based nanoparticles as potential contrast agents for THz imaging of breast cancer. Microdiamonds, nanodiamonds (NDs), and nanometer-scale onion-like carbon (OLC) are characterized with THz transmission spectroscopy in low-absorption backgrounds of polydimethylsiloxane or polyethylene. The refractive index and absorption coefficients are calculated based on the measured electric fields. NDs show little effect on the THz signal, microdiamonds express resonance-like, size-dependent absorption peaks, and OLC provides a uniform increase in the optical properties even at low concentration. Due to its strong interaction with THz frequencies and ability to be activated for selective binding to cancer cells, OLC is implemented into engineered three-dimensional breast tumor models composed of phantom tissue mimicking infiltrating ductal carcinoma surrounded by a phantom mimicking healthy fibroglandular tissue. This model is imaged using the THz reflection mode to examine the effectiveness of contrast agents for differentiation between the two tissue types. In both spectroscopy and imaging, a 10% concentration of OLC shows the strongest impact on the THz signal and holds promise as a THz contrast agent.

25th September
here. My past with Atwood is somewhat tortuous and fraught - I had a highschool English teacher who thought la Atwood walked on water, but my 16-year old mind stubbornly revolted. True story: my university admissions essay was about how I thought Jane Austen was more of a feminist than Margaret Atwood. Since The Year of the Flood takes place in the same timeline and world as Oryx & Crake, I know the two will be compared to no end. While I didn't think The Year of the Flood was a novel without flaws, I do think I liked it more than O&C. I found Toby & Ren to be more compelling narrators than Snowman, and whether I always agree with her take or not, I think Atwood shines brightest when she focuses on women. Write what you know, I suppose. She weaves an interesting story in which it's easy to get invested, one that I feel was richer and more fleshed out, and I think a lot of people will feel moved by what she has written here. It isn't my favorite Atwood (I think the childhood years of Cat's Eye get that honor), but it is an absorbing tale. Sometimes I felt the book got too preachy for its own good, but I won't deny that it takes less than six degrees of separation to trace her world back to the one we're currently living in; what she's saying needs to be heard, so I guess mission accomplished on that front. Rating: 3.5 out of 5For the October issue of BookPage, I reviewed fellow Canadian Margaret Atwood's latest novel, The Year of the Flood. The review is already up online, so I figured I'd give all of our S&TI! readers a sneak peak; you can read it

Triple chambers of Structure II
Chicanna Structure II is rightly famed for the Monster Mouth facade around the central chamber. However, the north and south chambers also featured important carvings around them – they just aren't as eye catching and so are regularly overlooked.

BELZ, Charles 19141935
Posted By: Pat Hochstetler, Volunteer (email)
Date: 3/16/2013 at 09:05:46
Former Conrad Boy Dies Suddenly at Des Moines Last Friday. Death Was Shock to Family, Friends
This community was shocked Friday night when word was sent to relatives here that Charles Belz, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Belz, former residents of Conrad, had died at Des Moines last evening. Death was due to carbon monoxide poisoning.
Charles Alvin Belz was born November 26, 1914, at Conrad, Iowa. He died July 12, 1935 at Des Moines, Iowa at the age of twenty years, seven months and sixteen days.
He attended grade and high school in Conrad, graduating with his class in 1932. Later in the same year he enrolled in Drake University. In both high school and college he was a regular participant in athletic activities and special work. Since his matriculation at college he has been a member of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church at Conrad.
During the last six months Charles has been employed by the Polk county Emergency Relief committee, serving in the territory surrounding Valley Junction. This work was terminated by his untimely death.
He leaves to mourn him, both parents, Mr. and Mrs. Clifford C. Belz, and one sister, Barbara, at their home in Des Moines. He also leaves many relatives and a host of friends.
The funeral was held at the Methodist Episcopal church in Conrad Monday afternoon at 2:30, where they body lay in state for an hour previous to the service. Relatives and friends filled the church. Rev. Floyd R. Maynard, the pastor, read brief selections from the old and new testaments and otherwise participated in the service. The Rev. Ralph Hall Collis, a former pastor, spoke comfortingly upon the theme The Lord is My Shepherd, and also rendered a musical reading, The Weavers, accompanied by his daughter, Arla. Mrs. L. B. Canfield of Grundy Center sang Still, Still With Thee, and Crossing the Bar, with Isabelle Stevens at the piano. Six fraternity brothers acted as honorary pallbearers. The pallbearers were Dale Loverin, Frank Miller, Leon Smith and Jack Hughes of Conrad and L. D. Krane and Eldon Jackson of Des Moines. The flower girls were Doris Loverin, Gwendolyn Belz, Velma Belz, Phyllis Clarke, Vola Bowers, Fern Shoup, Maxine Morrison of Des Moines and Jeanette Younker of Nevada. Burial was made in the local cemetery with Rev. Maynard reading the service and Rev. Mr. Collis offering prayer.
Among the friends and relatives from a distance were Mr. and Mrs. Will McGiffin and Mrs. G. D. Matthews and son of Kansas City; Mr. and Mrs. Ed Heber, Mr. and Mrs.
F. W. Hartwig, George Belz, Mrs. Chris Belz and daughter, all of Cedar Falls; Mr. and Mrs. Bennett and Miss Eleanor Ryder, Des Moines; Mr. and Mrs. Harold Minard, Toledo. There were also a number of friends from Des Moines in attendance. The class of 1932 of the Conrad high school and the boys Sunday school class of which Charles had been a member, attended in a body. The business places of Conrad closed at 2 oclock and remained closed until after the service.
