The Infuriating C# Out-of-Code References
I love C#. It takes everything I loved about my years programming in early Java and adds boatloads of wonderful. But, there is one thing that perpetually infuriates me. All C# source code includes coder-included class, type, and other references that are all relative to a list of "using" statements at the top of the source code file and also a list of libraries managed separately in the Visual Studio UI. The problem is that all the wonderfully helpful source code that people post on the web never includes these UI-managed library references, which means that any time you copy and paste those bits of C# source code you will get lots of squiggly red lines telling you that Visual Studio has no idea to what the classes, types, etc. given in the source code refer. And since I've just searched the web because I didn't know how to solve a problem or because I'm learning some new framework or paradigm via some example on a page, I usually have no idea what library or libraries I need to reference in order for all the dependencies to be satisfied.
Case in point, I just had a look at the Google Drive API "Quickstart". They show you a simple snippet of source code you are supposed to try yourself. They do not give you a Visual Studio project, just the code on the screen you need to copy and paste. They also tell you to download the API libraries. I did. The library has what looks like a common library directory with 10 or so DLLs (and various other files) and a separate folder with 45 folders for various "Services" and inside those more DLLs. And I am somehow supposed to know which DLLs this 20 line piece of source code needs??? So to be safe I end up including all the common libraries and both the libraries under the "DriveService". But the code won't compile. All the references are satisfied but now there's ambiguity between because an extension method is defined in two separate imported DLLs. It takes me another 20 minutes to figure out which one I don't need. Why do we have to go through all this??? It is all so utterly needless. I can't tell you how many times I've been unable to try out a piece of source code because something has gone wrong in figuring out and finding the libraries that were needed, and which versions of the libraries were needed (since libraries can radically change with every release).
What boggles the mind is that neither Visual Studio nor third-party VS plugins like ReSharper do anything to help. Surely something could be done to largely eliminate this problem! At the vary least, why couldn't they include a "header" like region at the top of the VS editor UI which lists the actual fulfilled references for that active file. It wouldn't actually be part of the source code, it would just be a handy little (perhaps collapsed) virtual piece of commented code that would be copied whenever you ctrl+a ctrl+c file contents. And when you pasted it elsewhere it would let people know what out-of-band files they were missing. The format would probably just specify the Portable Executable data for the file and the hash (not the actual path which would be less useful and less anonymous).
Here's hoping they do it one day, or someone makes a nice little third-party plugin that is able to sort it out for you (by having a massive DB of exported library functions and some good heuristics)...

As you know, there is a massive change in this year's Academy Awards. Instead of the usual five Best Picture nominees, there are now ten. But what you may not know is that, with that expansion, the way the winner is selected from that group of 10 has also changed. Selecting the Best Picture winner, up until now, was a reasonably simple affair. Voters named their pick, and whoever got the most votes won.
No longer. With the expansion, the Oscars have shifted to something called an instant runoff voting system, a scheme that I read the rules of a good 10 times without really understanding. I'll allow Sean Means of the Salt Lake Tribune to explain:
Voters must mark their favorites in order, 1 through 10… When the folks at PriceWaterhouseCoopers get the ballots, they will separate them into 10 stacks, one for each nominee. Then they will take the smallest stack, cross out the No. 1 choice and redistribute those ballots based on their No. 2 choice. This continues until one stack reaches 50 percent plus one. (This, by the way, is the same system Utah Republicans use to select candidates at their state convention.)
Did you understand that? No? Neither did I. Means interviewed LA Times writer Tom O'Neil, who says the new system could crown a winner that does NOT collect the majority of #1 votes from voters, and thus serve to create a massive upset (He likes "Inglourious Basterds" to win Best Picture).
I don't understand why the Academy felt it necessary to change the voting in this way. Imagine you're an Oscar voter. For years, you've been asked to name one Best Picture winner, and that's that. Now, you're asked to rank them one to ten. It is impossible, when ranking ten things like that, to not be somewhat arbitrary in your listings, especially as you get down to 5-10. Personal opinions on movies fluctuate all the time. Well, I liked this about "A Serious Man," but then I didn't like THIS about it. It's easy to pick one movie as what you consider best and then build the case in your mind for that one movie. But a top ten list is much more subject to the whims of your thinking. Thus, you may not have the strongest feeling about what the #2 movie is in the category. And now, that #2 ranking is crucial.
That doesn't mean a movie like "Basterds" isn't deserving of winning the top prize, should it pull off the upset. But if it does, it would stink if people said it won only because the new voting system was so weird.
All of this could be avoided if the Academy simply opened up to the public about how voters voted, which would be the awesomest thing ever. But they won't. They'll keep it all under wraps, and that's why this new system will probably be badmouthed by many in the future.

Jake Finkbonner was so close to death after flesh-eating bacteria infected him through a cut on his lip that his parents had last rites performed and were discussing donating the five-year-old's tiny organs.
Jake's 2006 cure from the infection was deemed medically inexplicable by the Vatican, the "miracle" needed to propel a 17th-century Native American, Kateri Tekakwitha, on to sainthood. Kateri is to be canonized today along with six other people, the first Native American to receive the honor.
Jake is convinced, as is the church, that the prayers his family and community offered to Kateri, including the placement of a relic of the soon-to-be saint on Jake's leg, were responsible for his survival.
Jake, now 12, will be present at the canonization, along with hundreds of members of his own Lummi tribe from northwest Washington state and reservations across the US and Canada who have converged on Rome to honor one of their own. It is a ceremony the church hopes will encourage Native Americans to keep to their Christian faith amid continued resentment among some that Catholicism was imposed on them by colonial-era missionaries.
The Catholic Church creates saints to hold up models for the faithful, convinced that their lives — even lived hundreds of years ago — are still relevant to today's Catholics. The complicated saint-making procedure requires that the Vatican certify a "miracle" was performed through the intercession of the candidate — a medically inexplicable cure that can be directly linked to the prayers offered by the faithful. One miracle is needed for beatification, a second for canonization.
In Jake's case, Kateri was already an important figure for Catholics in the Lummi tribe, of which his father, Donny, is a member. A carved wooden statue sits in the church on the Lummi reservation near Bellingham, Washington, 40km south of the Canadian border, where Jake's grandparents worshiped and where Donny remembers being told of Kateri's story as a child.
The Reverend Tim Sauer was the Finkbonner's parish priest in Ferndale, Washington — as well as the visiting pastor on the Lummi reservation — when Jake cut his lip playing basketball on Feb. 11, 2006. The necrotizing fasciitis bacteria that entered Jake's body through the cut immediately began spreading, and by the time Sauer arrived at Seattle Children's Hospital where Jake was airlifted two days later, Donny and Elsa Finkbonner were preparing to bury their son.
Sauer, who performed the last rites ritual on Jake that Wednesday — four days after he cut his lip — said he immediately urged the Finkbonners and the congregation back on the reservation to pray to Kateri.
He said he did so first and foremost to save Jake, but also because he thought that Native Americans could use a "boost of faith" if one of their own were held up as a saint. Indigenous Catholics, he said, increasingly find themselves ostracized and criticized on their reservations for embracing and retaining the Christian faith spread by imperial colonizers.
He said Kateri represents a perfect model for indigenous Catholics today, someone who resisted the ostracization of fellow natives and kept the faith.
For the devoutly Catholic Finkbonners, prayer was all they had left after Jake's doctors tried unsuccessfully for two weeks to stop the bacteria's spread.

Keeping A Healthy Tech Diet
Seasoned application developers know the importance of staying current with the latest languages and frameworks. Just as important is the need to experience operating systems that their customers use. This goes not only for desktop operating systems, but mobile OSes as well.
Having spent the last six months using iOS as my primary mobile platform, I decided to live in the Android world for a spell. Before going further, let me clarify that I won't abandon either platform entirely, since each has features that simply don't exist on the other. Also, Android tablets still have a long way to go before they match the elegance and simplicity of the iPad, though recent entries by Android hardware partners Asus and Samsung look promising. So although I've made the switch to an Android device as my primary mobile phone, the iPad will remain my tablet of choice for now. Besides, until an Android equivalent of Textastic is available, I won't be writing that much code on an Android tablet anytime soon.
First, here's what I miss. Google has yet to address the Siri issue with any compelling alternative. Yes, I know Android has voice recognition and text to speech functionality, but it's kludgy and sounds terrible compared to Siri's more natural sounding responses. If Google wanted to get a leg up on Apple, it would make available a downloadable replacement for Pico (the default TTS engine used since Android 1.6) and a drop-dead simple API that allowed developers to hook into the human to computer cloud conversation. Hopefully, we'll see something along those lines in the Android 4.1 release. In the meantime, the majority of Android users are 2.3 'Gingerbread'-based devices, and the likelihood of this version receiving an over-the-air update containing such functionality just ain't gonna happen.
Another shortcoming is the lack of a built-in Cisco IPsec stack on the phone. Sure, you can jailbreak and root your phone and install a third-party app to get this working, but this functional omission in even the new 4.0 release is confounding. I'm sure it's a combination of patents, licensing costs, and Google busy with other more pressing Android feature priorities, but until such functionality is baked into the OS, enterprise customers will turn to iOS for no-hassle Cisco VPN needs.
One more thing. Android phone headsets have a long way to go to match the basic functionality of the iPhone's. Given the rich media playback aspects of these devices, a standard mandatory hardware specification should be made for the headphone jack so that an Android headset from one manufacturer works on any other. I listen to a lot of podcasts and music on the go, and it's painful not to have the ability to control playback the way I can with the standard 3 button controls for iOS-certified media headsets.
With the negatives out of the way, there are a couple of developer-friendly attributes on Android that absolutely trounce iOS. Most obvious is the free flow of information and source code within the Android community. The ability to truly multitask is another extremely useful feature for triggering a variety of event-based actions. Speaking of which, I've become a huge fan of Tasker. For those familiar with Apple's Automator workflow automation application, Tasker is essentially Automator for Android. Compared to all the code I would have to write to perform what takes just a few button clicks to set up in Tasker, the time I've saved and will keep saving thanks to Tasker is substantial.
And while I still find the Java syntax too verbose for Android development, a number of interesting open source efforts are making their way virally across the interwebs that hook directly into the Android Native Development Kit (NDK), obviating the need to write any Java without sacrificing Android's Dalvik VM performance.
Lastly, what a difference half a year makes in the tech world! The Android Market has matured nicely in that short time, though it's still not quite as polished as Apple's App Store. Beyond that, migrating my mail, schedules, documents, and preferred applications from my comfort zones in iOS took a long weekend of configuration tweaking to get it just right.
So now that Android is once again my daily go-to OS, I like the direction that it and the Android community at large is heading. UIs are looking better, APIs are looking better, and hardware (especially on the tablet side) is looking better. It's a nice change of scenery. And who knows what I'll be switching to in another six months to keep my tech diet from getting stale. iOS 6? Windows Phone? What about you?

Batten down: Winterize pools carefully
Valley Pool & Spa
Q. It's too cold to swim. Got any winter maintenance tips for my pool?
A. A farmer from Madison properly maintained his 18 x 34 swimming pool– season in, season out. But because there was so much rain in the fall of 2004, he thought it would be fine not to winterize the pool the way he'd always done.
Come spring, when he pulled back the cover for the 2005 season, he found a disaster.
Instead of buying a proper cover to protect the pool over the winter, he had visited a local home improvement store for a couple of black covers and cinder blocks. Big mistake! One particularly bad night, a big wind lifted the cover, cinder blocks and all, and tossed the whole contraption into the pool, ripping the liner in several places.
Now what?
The moral of this story happens to be an expensive one. The pool owner thought he would save $60 by going the cheap route to cover his pool. In the end, he had to replace the entire expensive liner.
Pool owners should visit their local pool store for all the information and supplies they need for winter. Each year, the pool should be closed properly. Scrubbing the walls, vacuuming the bottom, adding the proper winterizing chemicals, and covering the pool with the correct protective top will help prevent a disaster when the snow flies and the wind howls.
Once the weather warms up, be sure to clean the cover carefully before storing it. All the debris must be removed so it can be used the following fall.
A local Charlottesville celebrity had an interesting problem when he uncovered his pool last spring. The maintenance crew found a dead deer on the bottom, and in the process of deteriorating, the carcass and fur had ruined the pool's liner. Another lesson for homeowners: lock down the hatches so no animals or other biodegradable debris can creep in.

In Erie County most times a person under the age of 16 years old commits a crime, he or she can only be prosecuted as juvenile. This means that their case is not sent to a regular adult court such as the Town of West Seneca Justice Court but instead goes to Erie County Family Court.
Erie County Family Court is part of the New York State Family Court System. According to the New York State Criminal Procedure Law all Family Courts are Superior Courts. This makes their rulings binding throughout the State of New York. This feature also means that no matter where in New York State a juvenile commits a crime he or she will be handled the same way. The process is different from how a case is handled when a person is charged for a crime as an adult.
A juvenile that is being sent to Erie County Family Court has all the facts in his case presented to the Erie County Probation Department. At the Probation Department a New York State Probation Officer will review the case with the victim and the suspect and then decide if the case is serious enough to be sent to the Erie County Attorney's Office. This is much like the plea bargaining sessions that are handled in adult courts. All felony level and most misdemeanor cases at the juvenile level are sent to the County Attorney for petition to Erie County Family Court.
At the County Attorney's Office the case is reviewed by a Prosecuting Attorney and if the facts are all in place a petition is filed with Erie County Family Court. The juvenile suspect is then appointed a Law Guardian who makes sure that his or her rights are not violated in this process. Once the case goes before an Erie County Family Court Judge, a hearing is held and possibly a trial is run. If the juvenile is found guilty he or she is adjudicated as a Juvenile Delinquent. At this point the juvenile suspect is sentenced by the Erie County Family Court Judge and he or she must follow the guidelines of the sentence. Once the sentence has been completed, the juvenile is done with the court and his or her case is sealed. These sealed records are not public documents and not even the suspects themselves can acquire a copy of the record.
Many times people have trouble with their children that need to be addressed but the family is at a loss as to where to turn. One avenue that they can use is the PINS Diversion Program through Erie County Family Court. For more information on this program utilize the links below.Erie County Family Court PINS Diversion

Herb and Elaine Stevens didn't expect to spend their 60th wedding anniversary Sept. 8 in a hospital room, but the Colorado couple had no choice after a meal of contaminated cantaloupe left him seriously ill with a listeria infection linked to a deadly outbreak of food poisoning.
The 84-year old Littleton man has shuttled between nursing homes and medical centers for a month, ever since he was sickened by a plastic-wrapped cut cantaloupe the pair bought at a local King Sooper grocery store. Before the illness, he was able to walk without help, stay alone for a few hours and take care of his dog. Now, says his daughter, it's not clear whether Stevens will be able to return home.
"It's scary," said Jeni Exley, 55, of nearby Centennial, Colo."You think you're safe when you're eating something. You put your trust in something and you get sick from it."
Herb Stevens is among at least 55 people sickened — including eight who have died — after eating Rocky Ford Brand cantaloupes grown and shipped by Jensen Farms of Holly, Colo. On Thursday, the federal Food and Drug Administration said that audits of Jensen Farms records revealed the suspect fruit was shipped to 22 states, up from an original estimate of 17.
Stevens and his wife are among the first victims to sue the growers, said food safety lawyer Bill Marler of Seattle.
Toll expected to rise
Government health officials and food safety trackers say the listeria toll is likely to rise as more suspected infections are confirmed. Marler has counted as many as 68 infections and 11 deaths, which would put the mortality total higher than the 2009 salmonella outbreak in peanut butter that sickened nearly 700 and claimed nine lives.
This is the second time in six months that cantaloupes have been at the center of a food poisoning outbreak. In March, an outbreak of rare salmonella Panama in cantaloupe sickened 20 people in 10 states and led to a voluntary recall by Del Monte Fresh Produce Inc. The firm, one of the nation's largest providers of fresh produce, later sued the FDA and threatened legal action against an Oregon epidemiologist, Dr. William Keene, claiming that that neither the agency nor the scientist had evidence Del Monte's fruit was tainted.
Both are among at least a dozen outbreaks in cantaloupe since 1990, including those typically caused by salmonella, norovirus or E. coli., but not listeria, food safety experts say.
Cantaloupe is particularly susceptible to contamination, ranking among the top five kinds of commonly tainted produce, next to spinach, lettuce, tomatoes and green onions, said Doug Powell, a professor of food safety at Kansas State University and publisher of a food safety blog.
"What makes cantaloupe stand out is a couple of things. There's the structure of the fruit. Think about a honeydew melon. They're smooth and very hard. Cantaloupe is very soft," Powell told msnbc.com.
With its bumpy rind and succulent flesh, cantaloupe can easily become tainted at any point from field to table, Powell said. Bacteria on the skin are hard to remove, and they can be spread to the edible portion of the melon when a knife slices through. There's some evidence that the porous skin might actually allow tainted water to permeate the flesh, he added.

More women opting for preventive mastectomy - but should they be?
Rates of women who are opting for preventive mastectomies, such as Angeline Jolie, have increased by an estimated 50 percent in recent years, experts say. But many doctors are puzzled because the operation doesn't carry a 100 percent guarantee, it's major surgery -- and women have other options, from a once-a-day pill to careful monitoring.

It's not yet clear how the Jensen Farms cantaloupes were contaminated. FDA officials have found listeria in lab samples taken from equipment and fruit at the farm's packing facility. But the bacteria can be present in soil or water, so the root cause has not yet been determined, said Doug Karas, a spokesman.
However the fruit became tainted, the results can be dangerous, particularly in older people, pregnant women and those with compromised immune systems. Victims in the outbreak range in age from 35 to 96, with an average age of 78, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"One you get a virulent strain of listeria, the kill rate is about 30 percent," Powell said.
Older people seem to like cantaloupe, which is sweet, soft and easy to chew, and they may be inclined to refrigerate uneaten portions, not knowing that listeria bacteria can survive the cold temperatures, he added.
Cases of listeria may continue to be reported into October. Most of the victims so far became sick on or after Aug. 4, but people can continue to develop listeriosis, the infection, for up to two months after eating contaminated food, according to the CDC.
Consumers should avoid Rocky Ford cantaloupe shipped by Jensen Farms and throw away produce that may still be in their homes. The fruit was shipped between July 29 and Sept. 10 to Arkansas, California, Idaho, Ohio and Oklahoma, in addition to the previously noted 17 states: Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah and Wyoming.
Chilling effect of lawsuit
Though the Del Monte lawsuit is not related to the current cantaloupe outbreak, it could have a chilling effect on food safety investigations now and in the future, experts said.
In the lawsuit against the FDA and in a now-dismissed complaint filed with an Oregon ethics commission against Keene, the state epidemiologist who investigated the March cantaloupe outbreak, Del Monte claims that neither the agency nor the scientist had direct evidence to blame the company's fruit for the illnesses. In July, the FDA enacted an import alert against the company's cantaloupe from Guatemala.
Del Monte officials accused Keene of a "cursory investigation" and charged that the FDA had no evidence that Del Monte cantaloupes caused illnesses because none ever tested positive for the salmonella Panama strain that caused the outbreak. Food safety experts, however, said epidemiological investigations often don't include positive tests because the food has already been consumed.
Many outbreaks are confirmed only through interviews with ill people that reveal a common food source, Powell said. In the case of the new listeria outbreak, a health warning and recall were issued a week before experts actually detected the bacteria, possibly halting more infections and death.
"Can you imagine the outcry if Colorado had waited an extra week to go public in the current outbreak?" he said. "Del Monte's lawsuit will, I'm afraid, cause health folks to be slower in going public."

John VAUGHAN
presumably born in Britain about 1616 and
Luigi GNARINI
born 1833 in Italy are the first members of their respective families to come to America. This is a genealogy of all of John's and Luigi's known descendants, and, the pedigrees of Ralph & Gaea that brought these two great families together when they married. We also have a separate International GNARINI Genealogy for all other known GNARINIs in the world.
, the 854th most common name in the US (1990 Census), is the Anglo-Saxon translation of the Welsh word VYCHAN that meant a younger member of the family. It was originally used to refer to a child in a family having the same given name as a parent but it became a secondary or surname after 1000 AD. Usage of VAUGHAN begins along The Marches of England after the time William the Conquerors forces first approached Wales. Unlike England, William never conquered Wales and the Welsh language remained intact much longer. VAUGHAN is the original and correct spelling of the name and is one of the 35 oldest names in Great Britain. Vaughn, Vaun and all other variations did not exist as surnames in ancient Wales and Britain but are corruptions due mainly to illiteracy, transcription error or poor penmanship that began in The Colonies after 1650. Census-takers and government workers in The Colonies, and subsequently the United States, were the greatest offenders.
originates in the 11th Century mountain village of Ponzano Superiore, La Spezia, Liguria, Italy and is among the rarest names in the world. When Gaea's brother, John GNARINI, died in the year 2000, the name became extinct in North America. Ponzano Superiore was first built as a military outpost to overlook the Via Francigena in the Val di Magra (Magra River Valley). We have had the privilege of visiting this
Our heritage includes four direct Mayflower lines (several more via cousin lines), scores of ties to European royalty and a number of scoundrels.
At present, we have over 29,000 individuals representing more than 5,000 different surnames, a Photo Gallery with well over 1,000 photos, and, over 200 Articles on various subjects.
Genealogy websites sometimes tend to be "dry" or "stuffy" so we have injected a little humor scattered about the website. We try not to take ourselves too seriously.
If you have ancestors in this genealogy, we invite you to bring your line up to the current generation. Please drop us a line, we always enjoy hearing from cousins.
Our website is for personal use only.

|Why don't universal translators work on that language the Breen speak?
Worf comments that nobody has ever seen what is underneath a Breen helmet and lived to talk about it. So how come in "Indiscretion", Kira and Dukat were able to knock out two Breen guards and steal their uniforms to disguise themselves?
Kai Winn says in this episode that she has never had an Orb experience, but in "In the Hands of the Prophets", she said tells Sisko that the Prophets have spoken to her through the Orbs.
|Factoid :
|The is the last Deep Space Nine episode ever directed by Winrich Kolbe.
As René Echevarria worked on the final episode, he realised that he had brought in the Dukat/Winn arc too early. He had no need for the characters now until the final episode, which was still seven episodes away. As a result, he had to find something to do with Dukat for the next six episodes. He came up with the idea of blinding him as he thought the audience would accept that they knew Dukat was off somewhere struggling with his blindness, but would have no great desire to see this play out.
(As an aside, a similar storyline plays out with Arya Stark in Game of Thrones, where she spends several episodes blind. At least some fans came to tire of this after an episode or two, indicating that Echevarria may well have been right!)
Dukat's reference to fighting the whole Klingon Empire in a single ship harks back to "Return to Grace", in which he is able to hijack and Klingon Bird of Prey and use it to run a resistance to the Klingon invasion of Cardassia.

Speaking to the National Association of Attorneys General this afternoon, Vice President Joe Biden reminded the audience of the grisly horrors of the Sandy Hook massacre in Newtown, Connecticut.
"Twenty innocent babies riddled – riddled with bullet holes – were the press not here, I could tell you what is not public yet about how gruesome it was," Biden said, revealing that he spoke to State Troopers about the investigation.
Biden insisted that the emotional impact of the Sandy Hook massacre had changed the public mood on gun control. "The excuse that its too politically risky to act, is no longer acceptable," Biden said.

Class of 2010
Major/Minor: Drama
Campus Involvement
- Major: Drama
- Drama productions
- Musician's Union
- I try to take advantage of everything the campus has to offer
Hometown and high school? Annapolis, MD; Gunston Day School
Favorite class? Shakespeare with Professor Moncrief. She is an incredible professor. I think she could make paint drying interesting. That class was tremendously fun and always engaging. Shakespeare himself isn't so bad either…
Recommended professor? Michele Volansky. She doesn't let you settle for less than your best.
Most memorable experience as a first-year student? Going down to the waterfront and the boathouse for the first time. Not only is it peaceful and gorgeous, it's where I made one of my closest friends at WAC.
If you could be a condiment, which one would you be and why? Ok, this question has seriously stumped me. After careful deliberation, I have decided on garlic infused olive oil with just a skosh of salt and a pinch of pepper. I have no reason for this, but I know that it's delicious on everything. Also, I enjoy alliterations.
If you had a superpower, what would it be and why? I would want the ability to transport myself into television shows and participate in the story lines. This would be especially beneficial for the Food Network. I think you know why.

Do you guys ever get those nights when you just cant sleep because your mind is just rushing well it happens to me a lot but last time it happened it went on for hours. First i started thinking about life how it started then it moved to religion and i pondered a while on what if it is all lies then it went to my life and how great my life could get and how i may have kids and i would make not a lot of money but descent money and how i would raise them and how i would die(which kind of put me on religion again) and what would happen to my family then i thought of the bad things could happen like maybe i would be truly alone like i would not even have a enemy to keep me preoccupied then i looked at my top dreams and i broke them down and thought of how unlikely they were to happen then my mind went on politics and how im slowly loosing hope for my country and how the world is run by greedy hate filled monsters and if there ever became a time when they would try to control us even more then they do now and how i would begged that it would happen so that i knew i was right and i was not just some fool then my mind went to my school and how much i hated almost all of them and it scared me that these are the future of the world then i thought of suicide not about doing it but what would happen if i did do it.
Later when i finally fell asleep i had a dream where my whole life was how i wished it was and how happy it was and it felt so real in that dream it seemed like a whole year was in it but then i waked up and i tried to think if any of it was true,when i finally realized none of it happen and i started to cry and beg that it did happen.

On Wednesday, Holly Black posted about the supposed "YA Mafia," assuring everyone it doesn't exist. Justine Larbalestier expanded on Holly's post, blaming the online disinhibition effect for the issue (and quoting our friend Phoebe North at length). Then a #YAMafia hashtag appeared, which some people found amusing, and others perceived as yet another threat.
The debate over negative reviews isn't unique to the YA community (see here, here and here). But when you're a small, tightly-knit group with a lot of crossover between writers, readers, book bloggers, colleagues, crit partners, and friends, the debate takes on a more personal tone-- and comes up over and over.
"It's about being professional, whether your reviews are honest or not. No one wants a psycho who laments how all [insert genre here] sucks and why can't something good be published."
(quoted with permission)
Regarding cliques:
I can only speak from my own experience. People naturally make friends and form groups in every industry. Some will be nice and some will be jerks and it's pretty easy to tell who's who. Sometimes you just need to be less shy. Sometimes groups have to restrict the number of members, simply to function.
If someone maliciously excludes you? They're no one you want to hang with anyway. In the immortal words of Garth Algar: "Get over it. Go out with somebody else."
Blurbs and favors:
But if you suspect a blurb is dishonest? Ignore it. It's no skin off your nose.
Once you're published, should you respond to bad reviews?
In addition to the links above, Ilona Andrews points out that as an author, everything is your fault. You can't argue criticism without looking like a whiner, and you can't agree without shooting yourself in the foot. Your only other choice is to be quiet. Phoebe is debating a similar question with Diana Peterfreund in Holly's comments.
Cleolinda Jones says reviews are not for authors, and reviewers have to make choices. Foz Meadows similarly points out that if you're going to post negative reviews, you need to consider where and when. (In the time it's taken me to write this, she's also written a longer post about this entire issue.)
You have to find a way to review without alienating your future colleagues. Negativity is a calculated risk and the consequences may or may not be worth it to you. That's the important part: TO YOU. There's no one-size-fits-all answer and there are a lot of variables. But if you're set on writing books and reviews, take heart: John Green has made it work. (And after I wrote all that, I saw that Dia Reeves said basically the same thing, and Jani Lee Simner says she doesn't mind if you hate her books. See? Variables!)
Secret cabals are overrated anyway, says Gwenda Bond. It's also possible that the YA Mafia and the YA Clique both really do exist, and they'll destroy each other in a secret rumble, leaving the rest of us free to seize power. But of course, we all know who really controls YA.......
- The things you say on the internet don't always come across the way you intend. Especially sarcasm. This also applies to book reviews.
- People are always looking for some "control group" to blame. If it's not Mormons or YA authors, it's evil agents or the Absolute Write overlords.
"Sometimes the thought that someone could 'make or break' my career, or that a good book would guarantee success, sounds like an alluring one as compared to the terrifying reality that everything is kind of a crapshoot."
"the best way to go about it is to stew in bitterness. ... As for book bloggers and reviewers, a writer cannot prevent you from getting published yourself. Your work has to speak for itself. A review is a review. A manuscript is a manuscript. They are not the same thing."
Sarah Rees Brennan sums it up the best:
"Possibly the only conclusion that can be reached is that authors and reviewers are people, and dealing with people will always be complicated. Some authors are going to behave badly and some reviewers are going to behave badly - but them's the breaks, and at least nobody's career can be destroyed.
- Phoebe North (yes again, okay?) responds to all the hoopla and suggests we be excellent to one another.
- Holly Black's round up with a link to Karen Healey's experience reviewing comic.
- Jordyn, the retired blogger mentioned in several posts, gives her side of the story.
- Lauren McLaughlin, aka "Joey Knuckles," in defense of bad reviews.
- Celidih of the Sparkle Project responds.
- Caroline Tung Richmond suggests if the mafia's not real, it's high time we make one.
- Dolorosa reiterates the bloggers' position.
- Zoe Marriott on insecurity.
- Sean Wills has the deciding, capstone post of the whole, uh, controversy. The upshot is: Don't be a jerk.
- John Scalzi does not have time to crush you.
- Ally Carter points out that guacamole and Roswell will not bring down publishing.
- Stacia Kane says she started it and she'd like to finish it.
- Amy Lukavics hopes you don't let this mess spoil your ride.
- Sarah Rees Brennan continues to be smart.
- Heidi Kling says it's up to us to be the good guys.
- Beth Revis says, "Don't be a jerk."
- The hashtag gets a mention on Oh No They Didn't.
And with that, this topic has jumped the shark. Remember the golden rule, folks, and feel free to link further posts in the comments.

Canada: Big Flap Over Supporting Troops
VICTORIA — The annual Canada Day parade in the seaside community of Parksville, B.C., will have one less float Saturday because a local group opposes what it calls the American-dominated military theme of this year's parade.We are glad that the anti-American types left in a snit, rather than being pandered to by the rest of the residents of this little community.
The decision by the Parksville and District Chamber of Commerce, to sell T-shirts with the message Support Our Troops has started an ideological war of words in this normally tranquil tourism and retirement community about 150 km northeast of Victoria.
The decision to sell T-shirts, for $10 each, was made to raise money to offset parade costs and send a message to Canadians serving in the military that people in Parksville were thinking about them on Canada Day, chamber president Cheryl Dill said yesterday.
But the Oceanside Coalition for Strong Communities says the T-shirts are an open endorsement of American military policy, which many Canadians do not support even though Canadian troops are stationed in Afghanistan.
The coalition had no choice but to pull its float — a puppet show popular with children — in protest from the Parksville parade, spokesman Rick Sullivan said.
"That phrase has become associated with the critical, unthinking, blind support of the American position in Afghanistan and Iraq," he said.
Dill said the chamber of commerce did not intend to ignite a political battle when it decided to sell the shirts on Canada Day.
U.S. liberals claim that they support the troops. In reality, many think pretty much like these leftist Canadians. Not liking the war, they really want want our troops to lose.

The Kangaroo meat was out of this world. We cooked it as you suggested. The beef steak also was fantastic. I took friends from out of town to [a fine restaurant] in DC and it was not as good as your meat.

Seib & Wessel: Immigration Now Faces Biggest Test
WSJ's Jerry Seib and David Wessel discuss the obstacles the immigration overhaul faces in the House, after the Senate passed its bill Thursday, including John Boehner's insistence that he won't bring a bill to the floor without majority GOP support.

Looking into the Future
A version of this article appears in the May/June 2009 issue of Home Energy Magazine.
May 06, 2009
How are we going to get there from here? One of the liabilities of growing older is the loss of perpetual optimism: You never see Pollyanna depicted with gray hair. When I was asked to contribute something "grand and wide sweeping" for this special issue, I tried to gracefully refuse. I am not the visionary type. What I can contribute is more of a rant, in keeping with my curmudgeonly sensibilities. Energy will always be available. In the future, though, the energy choices are likely to be far more expensive than what we have even now. DON FUGLER works for Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), the federal agency responsible for housing. He was trained as a mechanical engineer. He manages projects for CMHC in areas such as indoor air quality, ventilation, energy efficiency, moisture, attics, and contaminated soils. The opinions expressed in this article are his own and do not necessarily reflect those of CMHC. We can make big strides in reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. The impediments are financial and political, rather than technical. We can make big strides in reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
