The Southbourne Tax Group: Straight Talk - Be aware of the 'Dirty Dozen' of tax scams
The Canton Regional and Greater West Virginia Better Business Bureau offers tips and advice for consumers to avoid fraudulent practices.
Today's topic: IRS warns of the "Dirty Dozen"
The concern: Every year, the IRS compiles their "Dirty Dozen," a list of common scams that can affect taxpayers at any time of the year, but strike more often during filing season as consumers finalize their tax returns.
How the scam works:
Phishing schemes Criminals pose as a person or organization the taxpayer trusts or recognizes. They may hack an email account and send mass emails under another person's name. They may pose as a bank, credit card company, tax software provider or government agency. Criminals go to great lengths to create websites that appear legitimate but contain phony log-in pages. These criminals hope victims will take the bait and provide money, passwords, Social Security numbers and other information that can lead to identity theft.
Business email compromise (BEC) / W-2 phishing scam Cybercriminals use spoofing techniques to disguise an email to make it appear as if it is from an organization executive. The email is sent to an employee in the payroll or human resources departments, requesting a list of all employees and their W-2s "for a quick review." But it's not real, and those who reply are sending employees' names, Social Security numbers and income information to scammers, who then file fraudulent returns for tax refunds.
Tax identity theft Tax-related identity theft involves scams with the intent to steal personal and financial data from taxpayers or data held by tax professionals. One such way is when a scammer uses a stolen Social Security number to file a fraudulent tax return and claiming the refund. It also happens when someone uses your SSN to earn wages, and sticks you with the tax bill.
Fake charities Groups masquerade as charitable organizations to attract donations from unsuspecting contributors. One type of abuse or fraud involves scams that occur in the wake of significant natural disasters. Scam artists impersonate charities to get money or private information from well-intentioned taxpayers. Scammers can use a variety of tactics; some operate bogus charities and contact people by telephone or email to solicit money or financial information. They may even directly contact disaster victims and claim to be working for or on behalf of the IRS to help the victims file casualty loss claims and get tax refunds.
Tips to avoid these scams:
File early. File your tax return as early as possible to avoid a scammer filing instead.
Be secure. Use a secure internet connection if you file electronically, or mail your tax return directly from the post office.
Know the IRS. The IRS will not contact you by email, text or social media. If the IRS needs information, it will contact you by mail.
Be aware of your credit. Check your credit report for free at annualcreditreport.com to make sure there are no unauthorized accounts.
Protect personal data. Don't routinely carry a Social Security card, and make sure tax records are secure. Treat personal information like cash; don't leave it lying around.
Know phishing. Learn to recognize and avoid phishing emails, threatening phone calls and texts from thieves posing as legitimate organizations such as a bank, credit card company and government organizations, including the IRS. Do not click on links or download attachments from unknown or suspicious emails.
Be informed. To see the remaining "Dirty Dozen" and find more tax-time tips, visit the IRS website.


text: Following an in-depth overview of Windows Home Server "Vail" we have been digging to find out more information on code name "Aurora". It appears Rafael Rivera's original discovery that it could be the next generation Small Business Server is spot on. Several different sites belonging to Small Business Server team members have been discovered. The first is http://bjosbs.com/ which belongs to Becky Ochs, program manager for setup and OEM of Windows Small Business Server. On the site it's clear that "Aurora" is part of the Windows Server branding. The second site is https://www.wanderingkiwi.com/ which belongs to Guy Haycock, senior product manager, Windows Small Business Server. Little is known about "Aurora" yet but it seems it already shares components with "Vail". The remote access console is identical. It's possible that both could share similar codebases with one targeted at small business's (Aurora) and the other at home users and small home office users (Vail).

Time-based Motion Analysis
Easily evaluate how your product will perform and move throughout its operational cycle with motion analysis using SOLIDWORKS Simulation. Visualize your product moving as it would in the real world and measure the forces and loads on your design. Plus, use the data to correctly size motors and create the 'correct' mechanism to ensure performance, product quality, and safety.
Tightly integrated with SOLIDWORKS CAD, motion analysis using SOLIDWORKS Simulation can be a regular part of your design process—reducing the need for costly prototypes, eliminating rework or delays, and saving time and development costs.
Motion Analysis Overview
Motion analysis is solved using a time-based approach for rigid body kinematic and dynamic problems. SOLIDWORKS Motion takes the designer beyond the free drag movement available in a CAD environment and into a true physical calculation of the forces and motions of an assembly as it would move under environmental loads (external forces) and/or internal loads (motors, springs, and dampers).
SOLIDWORKS Motion simulation can calculate the effect of:
- Forces
- Springs
- Dampers
- Gravity
- Contact between components
- Bushings
Once the assembly motion has been calculated, a structural analysis of the components under the motion-induced loads (accelerations and joint forces) can easily be carried out, either within the motion study or exported to a structural analysis study.
Linear Stress Analysis
Linear stress analysis with SOLIDWORKS Simulation enables designers and engineers to quickly and efficiently validate quality, performance, and safety—all while creating their design.
Tightly integrated with SOLIDWORKS CAD, linear stress analysis using SOLIDWORKS Simulation can be a regular part of your design process, reducing the need for costly prototypes, eliminating rework and delays, and saving time and development costs.
Linear Stress Analysis Overview
Linear stress analysis calculates the stresses and deformations of geometry given three basic assumptions:
- The part or assembly under load deforms with small rotations and displacements
- The product loading is static (ignores inertia) and constant over time
- The material has a constant stress strain relationship (Hooke's law)
SOLIDWORKS Simulation uses finite element analysis (FEA) methods to discretize design components into solid, shell, or beam elements and uses linear stress analysis to determine the response of parts and assemblies due to the effect of:
- Forces
- Pressures
- Accelerations
- Temperatures
- Contact between components
Loads can be imported from thermal, flow, and motion Simulation studies to perform multiphysics analysis.
In order to carry out stress analysis, component material data must be known. The standard SOLIDWORKS CAD material database is pre-populated with materials that can be used by SOLIDWORKS Simulation, and the database is easily customizable to include your particular material requirements.
Piping and Tubing Design
Accelerate the development process and save time by designing piping and tubing in 3D during system design with SOLIDWORKS Premium. By integrating piping and tubing during the design process, designers can help ensure efficient assembly, operation, and serviceability, avoiding rework, delays, and extra cost.
Piping and Tubing Design Overview
Use the wide range of tools in SOLIDWORKS Premium to simplify design and documentation of piping and tubing for a wide range of systems and applications, including machinery, skid systems, and process plant piping. With SOLIDWORKS Premium, designers can:
- Create piping system designs with butt welded, socket welded, threaded, and other connections
- Create flexible or rigid tubing lines
- Automate placement of supports and hangers for all lines
- Generate bend tables for tube routes to support manufacturing
- Calculate cut lengths for all pipe and tube runs
- Auto-route pipe/tube paths through the design that can be easily edited according to assembly and service needs
- Ensure minimum bend radii in flexible tube systems

- Automatically create bill of material (BOM), cut lists, bend tables, and other manufacturing documentation
- Access a CAD library of piping and tubing components
- Use the Routing Library Manager (RLM) wizard to guide creation of custom piping/tubing components
Electrical Cable Harness and Conduit Design
Quickly design and route electrical wiring, harnessing, cabling, and conduit assemblies of products in 3D using the SOLIDWORKS Premium package. Integrating these systems during product design rather than adding them later accelerates your development process, saves time and rework costs, and helps to ensure efficient product assembly and serviceability.
Electrical Cable Harness and Conduit Design Overview
SOLIDWORKS Premium includes design tools that build a path of pipes, tubes, or electrical cables for your assembly. These tools cover the needs of a growing number of products that use sensors, control systems, and other systems that require wiring and cabling.
Routing creates a special type of subassembly that builds a path of pipes, tubes, or electrical cables between components. Routes include electrical wiring enclosures, fabricated cable, soldered copper, PVC, flexible tubing, welded piping, and associated fittings. Start the route by inserting route components into an assembly to define the start and end connection points of the path. Next, define the path using a 3D sketch. Then, SOLIDWORKS software generates the pipe, tube, and wire parts along the centerline and connects the parts to the route components.
Specific electrical cable harness and conduit design functionality includes the ability to:
- Position all equipment and run electrical routes throughout the overall design
- Route electrical cable, harness, and conduit systems through your product, including ribbon cable
- Determine required lengths of all wires, cables, harness segments as you design
- Flatten electrical cable harness for manufacturing documentation
- Import "From-To" electrical connection information from schematic design tools
- Automatically route segments through your products to speed creation
- Generate complete bill of material (BOM) and wire cut lists for harnesses for manufacturing
- Create cable harnesses as mechanical-only or with electrical data
- Run rigid or flexible electrical conduit segments
- Include additional components, such as mounting hardware, splices, connectors, insulation, looms, heat-shrink tubing, cable ties
- Routing Library Manager (RLM) wizard to guide creation of custom electrical components
Advanced Surface Flattening
Often products like leather goods, sports equipment, footwear, and products made from composite materials, like carbon fiber and fiberglass, have complex shapes, but are manufactured from materials that start out as flat stock, such as cow hides, nylon, cloth, and flat composite sheet. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately determine or estimate the size and shape of the surfaces in their flattened state in order to be able to cut the material from the flat sheet.
Automated, Interactive Surface and Curve Flattening and Data Export
SOLIDWORKS has always provided the ability to automatically flatten certain types of geometry. The SOLIDWORKS Flat Pattern feature for sheet metal parts provides automated flattening per sheet metal K-Factor and Bend Tables. However, when geometry is more complex, such as with nonanalytic surfaces, more control is often required to determine how the surface should be flattened.
SOLIDWORKS advanced surface flattening functionality provides control and flexibility to easily flatten these more complex surfaces. You can:
Automatically flatten the surface and interrogate an interactive deformation plot (mesh) to graphically view stretch and compression concentrations that can occur when flattening some surfaces with high curvature
Relieve material stresses due to flattening by creating relief cuts; Relief can be created by selecting sketches, sketch entities, and part edges, or by creating split lines or cuts for relief of stresses in these areas
Select "control edges" to guide the flattening process to maintain length and shape of specific edges, which is particularly helpful for more highly contoured surfaces
Sketch curves on surfaces and then flatten the surfaces and the curves together
Export flattened surface outlines or patterns for material cutting in a variety of export formats
Here are two time saving workflow examples enabled by SOLIDWORKS flattening:
Example 1: Pre-mark welding location lines and component assembly locations on a metal component that is manufactured by forming and welding. This saves time and avoids errors from having to measure and mark manually:
In SOLIDWORKS, mark the weld and component assembly locations (sketch) in the formed state - you can even include components names as text
Then flatten both the surface and the curves
If relief cuts need to be made, insert them by selected sketches, entities, or part edges
Export to a CNC laser and cut part – burn markings at a low laser setting
The components now contain the assembly and welding information
After forming, the lines will be the correct size and will be in the correct position so you can weld without having to measure and mark manually
The information is burned into the part located welds and components, and even calls out component part numbers for assembly
Example 2: Pre-cut heat insulation blankets with attachment points for industrial equipment:
In SOLIDWORKS, mark (sketch) attachment points on the industrial heat insulation material relative to the industrial equipment it covers
Then flatten both the surfaces and the curves
If relief cuts need to be made, insert them by selected sketches, entities, or part edges
Export to a CNC water jet and cut part and attachment points in flat
Once assembled over the industrial equipment, attachment points will line up with attachment points on the equipment that the insulation is designed for.
Routing of Rectangular and Other Sections
SOLIDWORKS Routing users can route rectangular and round sections to meet their design needs. Equipment designers, product designers, machine designers, facility designers and others all need rectangular section routing to complete their designs that include ducting, cable trays, conveyors, material handling chutes, and many other systems.
SOLIDWORKS Routing let's you:
- Generate and run rectangular (or other non-round) route sections using the same familiar SOLIDWORKS Routing user interface
- Select from various standard route and sub-route types such as Ducting/Trunking, Cable Tray, and Ribbon Cable
- Leverage the 'User Defined' route type for HVAC, Conveyors, space planning, etc.
- Leverage initial Design Libraries for building additional libraries of rectangular sections
- Automatically insert rectangular elbows and other fitting as you sketch your route paths
- Automatically update the BOM for your route, including all fittings and sections, as you design

Keeping up with this trend, Dr Volkmar Denner, chairman of the board of management of Robert Bosch GmbH said "The car as we know it will soon be history." "Today you use the internet to book a hotel room; in the future you'll arrange your mobility online as well."
To do so, private vehicles will be part of an integrated solution that includes public transportation and even entire urban infrastructures. "In a few years, mobility will be seamlessly connected," Denner said.
Denner outlined three development stages required to make this happen - connectivity begins behind the wheel, mobility will be seamlessly connected beyond the car, and the internet of things is bringing together mobility, smart homes, and smart cities.
He further added that Bosch is making connected driving possible in two ways. First, by integrating smartphones in a way that apps can be operated safely while at the wheel. And second, by installing communication boxes. As a result, drivers of connected vehicles can use their infotainment systems to stream both real-time data and entertainment content.
Connectivity extends far beyond the hood. "Alongside the home and the office, the car will become the third living environment," Denner says.
For Denner, however, connectivity is about much more than getting from A to B. "We're not just redefining mobility, we're also connecting people's living environments," he said. If cars are connected via the cloud to the smart home, or even the smart city, Denner sees added benefit for everyone.

All Mod Cons
40 years of The Jam's third albumTuesday 30th October 2018
November 1978, in the United Kingdom. Margaret Thatcher was gaining popularity as the leader of the opposition and Sex Pistols' debut album, a frequently referenced landmark in UK punk and counterculture, was just over a year old. Britain's Winter Of Discontent was about to bite harder than many people had imagined.
The Jam had released their sophomore 1977 LP, 'This Is The Modern World' just a couple of weeks after the infamous Sex Pistols record. While songs such as 'Time For Truth' were political, referring to the current Labour prime minister James Callaghan (Uncle Jimmy), The Jam were a very different kind of outfit to the anarchic Sex Pistols. Some critics and fans were confused about where The Jam were coming from with their modish patriotic themes, reminiscent of those found on Village Green Preservation Society or The Who in one of their flag wearing moments. If Sex Pistols were calling for the destruction of The Empire, The Jam seemed to be mourning its passing.
If The Jam's fans were confused, then fans of Blue Öyster Cult could be forgiven for being confused when the new-wavers were booked to support the '60s rockers on their 1978 US tour. Accounts have it that Paul Weller was left dismayed by the direction that the events of late '77 and early '78 were taking The Jam, causing a kind of make or break attitude among the trio.
Weller said later in an interview with Uncut: "After This Is The Modern World, I thought, 'Am I going to let this slide or fight against it?' My back was against the wall. It was a matter of self-pride."
The resulting set of songs became 'All Mod Cons', and its lead single was a double A-side - ''A' Bomb In Wardour Street' backed with a cover of The Kinks' 'David Watts'.
The crowd-pleasing Kinks' cover, fronted by Bruce Foxton, was backed with ''A' Bomb In Wardour Street' and its damning commentary on the state of the country: "A Philistine nation, of degradation, And hate and war. There must be more".
The second single to come out ahead of the album release was the now iconic 'Down in the Tube Station at Midnight', another scathing account of the state of society, specifically in the Nation's capital at a tense point in UK history. The story of the song tells of a man on his way home to his wife with a takeaway curry, who runs into a gang of far-right youths.
"I first felt a fist, and then a kick, I could now smell their breath, They smelt of pubs and wormwood scrubs, And too many right wing meetings."
Now regarded as one of The Jam's greatest moments, 'Down in the Tube Station at Midnight' was initially discarded by Weller who wasn't happy with the song at first, but was resurrected by the album's producer, Vic Coppersmith, who saw something in the song. In fact, many of the original recordings were rejected by the album's other producer Chris Parry. All part of the challenging rethink that the group were undergoing it seems.
In a review for NME, Charles Shaar Murray said "...not only several light years ahead of anything they've done before but also the album that's going to catapult the Jam right into the front rank of international rock and roll; one of the handful of truly essential rock albums of the last few years."
Weller steered The Jam away from their current course. Their illustrations of impossibly perfect Britishness as a form of social comment took a back seat. Instead, taking the issues full on, describing the offending characters and events in poetic detail. It was the direction that led to The Jam's next LP 'Setting Sons' pulling no punches with its big songs 'Eton Rifles', 'Going Underground' and 'Little Soldiers'.
In a 2009 interview with The Guardian, Weller said "Class issues were very important to me at that time... Woking has a bit of a stockbroker belt on its outskirts. So I had those images – people catching the train to Waterloo to go to the city. 'Mr Clean' was my view of that."
Away from the singles 'All Mod Cons' still had moments like 'English Rose', a loving song describing an English woman or England itself, but it also had the pogoing angry anti-authority of 'Billy Hunt'.
The Jam's commercial and artistic success continued to grow after the change of tack calculated at 'All Mod Cons', culminating in number one chart positions for their final album 'The Gift' and its single 'Town Called Malice'. The Jam had achieved four number one singles by their surprise split in 1982.

Veneers are thin, custom-made shells crafted of tooth-colored materials designed to cover the front side of teeth. They are an option for correcting stained, chipped, decayed or crooked teeth. Veneers are made by a dental technician, usually in a dental lab, working from a model provided by your dentist. Placing veneers is usually an irreversible process, because it's necessary to remove a small amount of enamel from your tooth to accommodate the shell. Your dentist may recommend that you avoid some foods and beverages that may stain or discolor your veneers such as coffee, tea or red wine. Sometimes a veneer might chip or fracture. But for many people the results are more than worth it.
Chipped Tooth
If you regularly chomp on hard foods like nuts or ice cubes, grind your teeth or have a mouth piercing, you're at a higher risk for a chipped tooth. You might feel pain, depending on how much tooth has been lost. You may also feel a rough edge when you run your tongue along it.
If this happens, see your dentist. A small chip might be able to be smoothed down. Your dentist can use a tooth-colored filling, a veneer s or crown to shape up your smile after a larger chip.
If you have any questions, ask Dentistry by Design.
Don't forget to schedule regular dental exams or dental check-ups to keep your smile, and yourself, healthy.
Regular dental visits and dental cleanings are important because they can help spot dental health problems early on when treatment is likely to be simpler and more affordable.
Today's cosmetic dentistry includes tooth whitening, bonding, tooth-colored restorations and fillings, porcelain veneers, orthodontics, dental implants, and more.
Cosmetic bonding is a process where the dentist attaches or "bonds" materials directly to your tooth in order to change the color and shape.
A dental crown can make your tooth stronger and improve its appearance.
Dental implants are a popular and effective way to replace missing teeth and are designed to blend in with your other teeth.
If you're missing one or more teeth, you may notice a difference in chewing and speaking. Dental bridges can help restore your smile.
Removable partial dentures usually consist of replacement teeth attached to pink or gum-colored plastic bases.
An extraction means to have a tooth removed, usually because of disease, trauma or crowding.
Composite resins, or tooth-colored fillings, provide good durability and resistance to fracture in small- to mid-size fillings that need to withstand moderate pressure from the constant stress of chewing.
Gum disease is an infection of the tissues that surround and support your teeth. It is a major cause of tooth loss in adults.
Root canal treatment is necessary when the pulp (soft tissue inside your teeth containing blood vessels, nerves and connective tissue) becomes inflamed or diseased.
After sealant has been applied it keeps those bits of food out and stops bacteria and acid from settling on your teeth—just like a raincoat keeps you clean and dry during a storm.
Talk to your dentist before starting any type of teeth whitening. If you are a candidate, there are three ways to put the shine back in your smile.

Priya Kulasagaran looks at into Ayurveda, and finds that it is more than just about oils and massage treatments.
Ayurveda's roots dates back to thousands of years, with its workings written down in ancient Hindu Vedas, or scriptures.
While the foundations of Ayurveda were laid down by Hindu philosophers, its practice and development has been more cultural than religious.
Like many traditional healing systems, Ayurveda is based on the principle that the universe and everything in is composed of five elements – air, water, space, earth and fire.
These elements, in various combinations, are said to form the basic doshas (or humors) of the human body; the Vata, Pitta, and Kapha doshas.
The Vata dosha comprises space and air, and is connected to circulation, respiration and the elimination of waste.
Combining fire and water, the Pitta dosha is related to body temperature, digestion and metabolism.
Finally, the Kapha dosha represents earth and water, and is associated with the immune system, as well as distributing fluids in the body, such as lubrication to the joints.
Each individual has his or her unique mix of doshas, and practitioners believe that people have their own ideal balance of the humours to maintain a healthy life.
The key principles that inform Ayurvedic therapies involve processes which aim to rejuvenate and cleanse the body.
Treatment philosophy
By using remedies such as herbal medicines, meditation, massage oils and yoga, the overall aim of treatment is to restore balance in one's body.
Broadly, these therapies can be categorised into three main types; purification, pacification, and nourishing therapies.
Usually, practitioners will prescribe pacification as the first form of treatment – this tends to involve a change in diet and activity.
This includes eliminating food which are said to aggravate diseases, and using techniques such as yoga to relax the body and mind.
These may be supplemented by therapies and herbal concoctions to improve the body's strength.
Purification meanwhile, is employed when a practitioner feels your body is in dire need of some 'cleansing'.
With the panchakarma therapy for instance, involves detoxing the patient through methods such as purging and even medicated enemas; these more severe techniques however are said to only treat symptoms of a particular disease rather than curing it.
What to expect
Since Ayurvedic treatment focuses on rebalancing the doshas, an Ayurvedic practitioner will not only ask you for your medical history, but also detailed questions about your lifestyle.
This may include questions about your diet, habits, as well as surroundings.
The practitioner will also check your pulse, examine your tongue, eyes, nails and skin to take note of any symptoms reflecting the underlying imbalance.
The most immediate recommendation by practitioners is usually a lifestyle change, particularly diet.
Other simple treatments include pranayama, which encompasses breathing exercises to help calm the mind and make you relax; and abhyanga, an Ayurvedic oil massage to improve blood circulation and draw toxins out of the body through the skin.
Yoga is also a popular prescription, as it is said to be an ideal form of exercise to balance all three doshas.
Aside from toning the entire body, yoga postures are also said to help cleanse internal organs of toxins.
Different yoga poses are said to have different effects; for example, twists are good for kapha dosha because they stimulate digestion.
Research carried out on yoga so far indicates that it can be helpful improving blood circulation and digestion, and alleviate anxiety, and chronic pain.
Yoga has also shown to be useful for those who wish try out meditation, as it helps calm the mind and relax the body.
Purification treatments are more cautiously prescribed, and these include sweating, and the cleansing of the bowel by way of laxatives or even enemas to remove toxins from the body.
More severe ways of cleansing described in Ayurvedic texts include forced vomitting and blood-letting – but many modern practitioners do not carry out these methods as they can be harmful.

I really love to bake. When I'm anxious or overwhelmed, the kitchen seems like such a calming place to unwind. Mixing flour, sugar, eggs, and vanilla together to create a delicious treat seems almost magical. And then getting to eat the delicious creations? The best! Of course, eating five cookies in one sitting, or a couple 'healthy' granola bars for an afternoon snack is never a good thing. That's why I started the Whole 30 in the first place, to try and curb my sugar addiction and feel healthier.
It's now day 25 of my thirty day program, and I'm still feeling really unhappy about the whole thing. I don't feel much healthier, and instead still feel somewhat resentful for all of the fabulous foods I am missing out on. I feel like I would have been happier at sunday brunch had I gotten to sneak a few bites of Soren's chocolate chip cookie in a jar. I missed out on an imperial cookie from the farmers market, something I look forward to all winter when the market is closed. Perhaps I would have felt happier this morning on my drive to work, had I had milk in my coffee instead of coconut milk.
When reading about the whole 30, they stress that food shouldn't make you happy. But I disagree. I love food, and more importantly the celebrations that surround food. When I go out for dinner with friends and choose to have water instead of a glass of wine, I feel like I'm denying myself something that I find pleasurable. I don't have a drinking problem - so to me, a glass of wine on occasion is a treat! One I look forward to. The benefits of feeling healthier do not outweigh saying no to something on the 'DO NOT EAT LIST'.
On the other hand, I am totally amazed with myself that I have gone 25 days without any sugar. I've learned that eggs are great for breakfast, and don't take much longer to prepare than my traditional peanut butter and banana toast. I'm happy to have some fruit and a few cashews for an afternoon snack, if I need a snack at all. And I've re-confirmed my love of salads, something that I have always enjoyed but sometimes lacked the motivation to pack for lunch.
These granola bars are definitely on my do not eat list, but the kids love them, so I made a batch yesterday. They are adapted from the Oh She Glows cookbook, and if you don't have it yet you should definitely treat yourself. Best $15 you'll spend all week, unless of course you are allowed to eat such things as croissants and lattes... in which case your best $15 might be consumed elsewhere.
*as I try to find comfort in knowing that there may be others out there who also hate the 'whole torture', as I lovingly refer to it, I came across this article which very clearly articulates my thoughts. Why I'll never do a whole 30 again - but you can

Catholics at the Capitol draws 1,000 from across Minnesota
Ione Duff doesn't consider herself a political person, but a commitment she's made to put her faith into action compelled her to join 1,000 other Catholics from across Minnesota in St. Paul for the first-ever Catholics at the Capitol.
"I need to make a stand, but I'm not political, and the idea of it scares me," said Duff, 54, a parishioner of St. Paul in Ham Lake.
She took the day off of work from her job with the Minnesota Department of Revenue to attend the education and advocacy event. She hoped to become better informed about public policy issues and how to articulate her stance.
She realized, however, that the day was about more than finding the right words.
"Just being here says something to people. Just being at the Capitol as a group of Catholics says something to people," she said.
She was among Catholics who crowded into a RiverCentre conference room for an 8 a.m. Mass concelebrated by the state's bishops. The liturgy kicked off a morning program of speakers and advocacy training before participants headed to the State Capitol to meet with lawmakers. Organized by Minnesota Catholic Conference, the event aimed to more deeply engage Catholics in the public arena through education about important issues and tools to help them advocate effectively.
The event drew Catholics from every senate district in Minnesota, said Jason Adkins, MCC executive director.
In his welcome, Archbishop Bernard Hebda, who, as archbishop of St. Paul and Minneapolis, is MCC board president, said he hoped the day helped attendees "to be more effective faithful citizens and to join your bishops in protecting life and human dignity in Minnesota."
"We're trusting that God is indeed going to be blessing our efforts, and that this will be a good experience for all of us," he said.
The event drew Catholics of all ages, the senior classes of three Catholic high schools, students from many others, and several families with young children. Adkins said the day was designed to serve as a resource for seasoned advocates and political newcomers. He quoted Pope Francis: "A good Catholic meddles in politics because it is one of the highest forms of charity."
"It's countercultural, but the Church sees politics as a form of civic friendship. At a time when polarization and partisanship are pulling us apart, the world needs the Church more than ever to renew public life by building bridges of friendship, including with lawmakers," Adkins said.
When he asked who in the audience was meeting their lawmakers for the first time, hands around the room shot up.
Faithful citizenship does not end with voting, Adkins said. Lawmakers need Catholic constituents as their resources and friends.
"The relationships that you build today among each other … but also with your legislators, will hopefully continue as we work to protect life and human dignity," he said.
The morning program included videos designed to explain Catholic political engagement and demystify constituent meetings, including one that featured a Paul Bunyan-like character illustrating Minnesota Catholics' obligation to participate in the public square.
Three of the state's bishops also spoke on key issues MCC is working on this legislative session: creating tax credits for school choice; increasing the funding for the state's welfare cash-grant program; and resisting the legalization of physician-assisted suicide.
After speaking about the positive impact school choice would have on Minnesota's students, Bishop Andrew Cozzens of St. Paul and Minneapolis made a video for Gov. Mark Dayton asking him to support the legislation. It included Catholics at the Capitol attendees shouting in unison, "support school choice." The bishop shared it via Twitter.
The morning program included two guest speakers, Bishop James Conley of Lincoln, Nebraska, and Gloria Purvis, co-host of "Morning Glory" on EWTN Radio and chairwoman of Black Catholics United for Life.
Bishop Conley told Catholics that they must "build a culture of life, a civilization of love."
"Our mission is to reflect the city of God by the way we live in this world," he said. "We do that, in part, by our engagement in public life."
He added: "Catholics are not politically liberal or politically conservative; we are simply Catholics, disciples of Christ and his Gospel. Our mission in the public life is to be faithful to the truth of Jesus Christ and his Church, and the truths he's revealed to us."
Purvis' presentation rallied Catholics as they transitioned from the day's educational component to meetings with lawmakers. She acknowledged that meeting with elected officials might seem intimidating for some, but "to remember that this is a mighty God that we serve."
She shared an anecdote from 2016 about Sister Constance Veit, spokeswoman for the Little Sisters of the Poor, who have been stalwart in fighting the Affordable Care Act's contraception mandate in the courts.
Purvis heard a reporter ask the sister what her plan B was if they lost the court battle. "She said, 'We don't have a plan B, because we don't believe that God will abandon us.'"
Purvis continues to be inspired by the bold answer.
"Do not be afraid," she said. "We know the God that we serve."
At the Capitol, attendees met with their elected officials. Some also prayed the rosary, toured the newly renovated Capitol and talked with their bishops before a final blessing in the rotunda.
In his closing remarks, Bishop John Quinn of Winona said his message was an opening of sorts.
"What we do now is really going to count," he said. "We are not going to be afraid. We are not going to withdraw from the culture that more than ever needs the truth of Jesus Christ."
The values that participants of Catholics at the Capitol expressed during the day don't belong solely to Catholics, he said, but to the "human family."
He added, "Now the work begins."
Bishop Conley: 'Your state needs your faith and your witness'
Purvis: Christ equips Catholics to 'have no fear' at Capitol

The hidden meaning within your furniture
Furniture is often overlooked as a mundane feature of the home. But its resonance in our lives is much more profound, writes author Ian Sansom.
Furniture contains numerous traces of what we are and who we are and who we think we are.
Cupboards, for example, contain our past - as well as our regrets and secrets. Keys which fit no locks, pieces of paper with obsolete phone numbers and pin numbers written on them, stray playing cards, inexplicable plastic things and old French francs. Why we keep any of this stuff I do not know, except as something to hand on to our own children, to keep in cupboards of their own - our endless inheritance of waste.
Our wardrobes, meanwhile, suggest who we might have become, and where we might have gone. In 1908 E Nesbit published a story in Blackie's Children's Annual, titled The Aunt and Amabel. In the story, a young girl, Amabel, is punished by her aunt for cutting off the heads of flowers in the greenhouse. Furious, the aunt confines poor Amabel to the spare bedroom, where she discovers a book of railway timetables which list a destination called Whereyouwanttogoto.
"This was odd," writes Nesbit, "but the name of the station from which it started was still more extraordinary, for it was not Euston or Cannon Street or Marylebone. The name of the station was Bigwardrobeinspareroom." And so Amabel embarks on her adventure.
In 1948 CS Lewis wrote to a friend that he was attempting to write a children's book "in the tradition of E Nesbit". The children's book he wrote was, of course, The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, published in 1950, and one of the Nesbit traditions he borrowed was the magic wardrobe. Lewis uses his wardrobe to enter an entirely different realm - his destination is the Celestial City.
Like wardrobes, beds act as transports for the imagination also. Writers in particular love to work on the horizontal. Milton's Paradise Lost was mostly written in bed. As was much of Winston Churchill's history of World War Two. Truman Capote claimed that he couldn't think properly unless he was lying down. He liked to start his day in bed with coffee and then move on to mint tea, to sherry and finally to martinis - his bed was a bar.
Furniture also has an emblematic and symbolic function - think of Van Gogh's famous paintings of two chairs, Gauguin's chair and his own, which vividly represent what he imagined to be the difference between him and his friend. Gauguin's chair is a dark brown-red, with generous curved arm-rests, its seat loaded with books and with a candle set upon it, erect and flickering - an image of warmth, wealth, contentment, learning, potency and power. Van Gogh's chair, on the other hand, is yellow, plain and rickety - it looks very much as though it has been made by someone who could do with a little more practice on their mortise and tenon joints. It is a simple man's chair - a poor man, but an honest man.
All furniture communicates meaning - it's unavoidable. It's what things do. A bed speaks of our inner lives, of the body and the soul. Our cupboards and cabinets imply secrets. Wardrobes suggest our dreams of other worlds. And tables invite company.
There are perhaps more kinds of tables than there are of any other type of furniture - kitchen tables, coffee tables, refectory tables, drafting tables, billiard tables, chess tables, table-tennis tables, communion tables, dressing tables, operating tables, library tables, bedside tables, night tables, and side- and end- and sofa tables.
There are innumerable uses for all these tables, but just one thing that unites them, apart from the obvious fact that they all have flat, horizontal surfaces - they are all gathering places, for both people and things. It is significant that the table is at the centre of religious practices - in Judaism, in the home, in Christianity, at the altar - and our language of course is replete with metaphors using tables as proverbial meeting places and negotiating platforms. We put a deal on the table. We drink someone under the table - and then we turn the tables on them. The table is the place where we interact with others - with family, friends, colleagues, rivals - and enemies.
The value of a table, like all pieces of furniture, lies in its history. We might make it, but furniture in turn makes us. It shapes us, defines us, and determines our everyday lives.
Novelist and academic Ian Sansom's week-long series of The Essay: Furniture: A Personal History of Movable Objects runs from Monday 7 April - Friday 11 April at 22.45 BST on BBC Radio 3.

Immigration Raids Make Our Communities Unsafe: Chicago ICE Field Office Enforcement Operations Highlight Clear Violations of Civil and Human Rights
Yesterday Felix Torres, a 53-year-old resident of the Belmont-Cragin neighborhood, was shot by an immigration agent during a home raid in the northwest side of Chicago. Felix is currently hospitalized and according to reports he is in critical condition.
In response, the People's Response Team, Organized Communities Against Deportations (OCAD), and Mijente put together the following joint statement.
Yesterday's shooting of Felix Torres by an Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent shows that immigration raids make our communities unsafe and expose the heightened militarized tactics utilized by ICE to detain people in our communities. It also highlights reasons why our local governments must take action to stand on the side of immigrant communities, demand accountability and transparency from ICE, and do everything in their power to help this family and prevent future raids from taking place.
The Chicago ICE Field office and its director, Ricardo Wong, have repeatedly planned and executed violent raids in homes, work places, churches, and locations where our communities are supposed to feel safe. These raids have involved firearms, physical force, threats, manipulation, biometric fingerprinting machines, and ruses with the intent to force their way into people's homes. These are clear violations of our communities civil and human rights.
The Mayor and the Chicago City Council are considering right now a series of amendments to the Welcoming City Ordinance that would make it harder for ICE to target people in Chicago. However, because of bureaucratic delays it will not be considered at this month's City Council meeting. As the mayor delays progress on a critical policy, this incident shows the urgency – people's lives are on the line.
Moreover, our communities' needs have not been met and have been further destabilized by the city of Chicago's divestment from mental health clinics, schools, and public programming. It is not enough to have police and ICE break ties – both agencies receive heavy funding from local and federal government, funding that could instead be used to invest in our Black, brown and immigrant communities. ICE and police have taken our sanity, our safety, and our humanity hostage.
We continue to demand accountability for the well-being of our communities, and adamantly seek justice for every individual who has been irreparably wronged by this system.
We remain steadfast in our commitment to organize to dismantle ICE and defund the police in order to create a Chicago where we are all safe.
We urge those who may have been survivors of ICE's violent tactics to report it to OCAD by calling the Family Defense Hotline at 855-435-7693.

Patients with HIV are encouraged to participate in regular check-ups to keep a track of their health. In high resource settings, devices known as flow cytometers complete the tests by analysing the blood. These, however, are bulky machines that run on electricity. With its cost being upwards of USD 50,000, regions with limited resources can hardly afford them.
As a solution to this, Thomas Boland, a Professor of metallurgical, materials and biomedical engineering at University of Texas has created a less expensive, battery-powered health monitoring tool for use in third world countries. The portable device works by helping clinicians count the number of CD4 cells — cells that are attacked by HIV in the body. After drawing a patient's blood, clinicians mix in magnetic microscale beads that latch on to CD4 cells in the blood. The mixture is then placed in an inkjet printer that's been modified to print out cells instead of ink. Rather than printing vertically onto a sheet of paper, the cells are shot out horizontally onto a magnetised microscopic slide.
CD4 cells in the blood automatically attach to the slide, while other cells that do not need to be counted dribble down into an excess container. Doctors can then look at the slide through a microscope to count the number of CD4 cells on it. That number is inserted into an equation that calculates the total number of CD4 cells in the individual's body. The procedure takes as little as 20 minutes, resulting in ultra-quick results. The printer will help doctors and patients in low-resource settings who do not have access to flow cytometers. The next step in the process is to license the technology to a company that is willing to help get it in the market.

Following the floods that wreaked havoc on so many Calgary homes, the damage is obvious. Streets lined with soggy drywall and waterlogged flooring are visible proof of how widespread the damage was.
But for some the damage was less apparent. On the edges of the floodwaters, the impact may have consisted nothing more than a damp carpet. However, despite appearances, residents should take care to ensure there are no potential dangers lurking out of sight.
"I just [inspected] a house a couple days ago and they had a little bit of water and they thought they had it all," said Kevin Sixsmith, building inspector with AmericSpec Inspection Services. "I went in and I showed them a bunch more spots they needed to rip out. They thought they had it completely but they had low lying areas under the floor and in the basement, and it sucked up into the drywall."
According to Sixsmith, who has already seen an upswing in demand for his services since the flooding, said hidden trouble spots such as underneath flooring and behind drywall can lead to big problems if not detected right away.
"Mould is the big problem. You get wet, you get mould. If you get wet carpet, it never really dries out properly. So you always run into problems if it's not done properly and professionally," he said.
Mould can cause serious long-term health risks for homeowners, such as respiratory disease and allergic reactions. People with mould allergies or compromised immune systems are most at risk of potential illness. Additionally, mould can also cause damage to building materials long after a flood.
Alberta Health Services advises cleaning all walls in a flooded house, even those that are on floors above the water line, since they will have been exposed to excessive humidity for long enough to start mould growth. This growth is often difficult to see without special instruments and techniques, so don't assume surfaces are alright because they are one floor above the obvious problem zone.
When flooding backs water into the insides of walls and the cavities between ceilings and floors, hidden materials usually become waterlogged and contaminated with dirt or other organic materials. If these cavities are not opened, then cleaned and thoroughly dried, bacterial and mould contamination may become severe, leading to serious health problems for occupants.
One of the ways Sixsmith said homeowners can help ensure there are no hidden dangers developing in their home is with the use of moisture meters and a thermal camera. By scanning a surface with a thermal camera, the temperature difference created by the presence of moisture will appear differently than the surrounding area. Designed to measure the moisture content of various building materials, such as insulation, drywall, plaster, wood and fiberglass, moisture meters an be used to determine whether a material is moist enough to allow mould to grow. While influenced by other factors, mould will generally begin to accumulate on surfaces that contain approximately 20 per cent moisture.
"The big thing is going to be the hidden water underneath the flooring and in behind the drywall," said Sixsmith. "If they're carpets were wet and they didn't do anything in behind the walls and the drywall, water is going to seep up in behind them and it won't really dry out."
For information on how to deal with mould in your home, visit the Alberta Health Services website at www.albertahealthservices.ca or contact a qualified home inspector in your area.

Wavvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvves is the new hot shit. Blogs are saying that==========THEY ARE MORE VALID THAN THE GUARDIAN.

Keep It Hid & Keep It Fresh, Dan Auerbach.
MP3: Dan Auerbach - My Last Mistake
The very existence of "Keep It Hid" asks two big questions of it's author Dan Auerbach: are these songs different from his main outfit the Black Keys and are they necessary? The answers that are audibly given say it's okay to take a sigh of relief.
"Keep It Hid" is chock full of special songs for your mixtape or pocket that could have been fermenting for years or maybe a month before putting these down in the studio. There is much soul, honesty and passion in songs like "Trouble Weighs A Ton", "Real Desire" and single "My Last Mistake" and I can appreciate and even envy a slight bit that Auerbach made this entirely by himself. The advantage is in the fact that he's been making records with his band for years, so this sounds less like a debut and more like a consistent gift to his fans new & old.
That said, there are a couple of songs, like "The Prowl" that sound like a Black Keys b-side, but you really can't fault a songwriter for sounding like himself, can you? Again, this record is near completely it's own thing: I've seen other reviewers say otherwise, but I think that's rubbish.
But judge for yourself... if you dug Auerbach's day job, you're going to love it. If not, give it a shot anyway, I think you'll be quite pleased with the results.
"Keep It Hid" is out now from Nonesuch.
Check out this real cool video of him playing "Trouble Weighs A Ton" here and (while it lasts) a sweet performance of "My Last Mistake" on Conan here.

I can't imagine the Heartless Bastards' band name is literal. They seem like some genuine, large hearted humans. I'm sure they chose it because, as bad asses, you need a bad ass band name. I get that. Their newest effort "The Mountain" does seem like it can be taken literally, however.
When listening to the record, you climb higher and higher. Though you aren't starting from the bottom: you get to cheat a little. It's like that episode of the Simpsons where Homer climbs that mountain hopped up on Powersauce and he thinks he makes it to the top, but really there is plenty more. We start from there, and it gets better and better. Songs like "The Mountain", "Early In the Morning" and "Out to Sea" soundtrack the determined climber, with a goal in mind to dredge past the shit that is below to make it towards the Sun's warm glow. Then, when you're ready to eat your packed lunch or wait out the heavy breeze, you can spin "Could Be So Happy" or "So Quiet".
It's damned near impossible to find an album with no duds in these hard times. Why are we spending our rent money on records anymore when only a handful of songs are subpar? It's worthless, but maybe now people will work harder for your money. Or it may come naturally: this album seems pretty fucking natural. This, to me, is exactly what I want to see more of in 2009. It's an attitude and a style that should catch on - and why not? It's infectious. You listen to this record and you want to be a better person, you want to do better things. You want to earn the right to be a listener and fan of the Heartless Bastards and I want to do what it takes to be worthy of them. "The Mountain" is not be missed, and is officially the first great record of 2009. Let it be heard.
"The Mountain" is out now from Fat Possum.
They play Letterman on the 10th and recently did a phenomenal Daytrotter session which could be found here.

VEGA: "Handsome fighters never lose a battle!"
MP3: VEGA - Well Known Pleasures
MP3: VEGA - All Too Vivid
According to a Google search, not only is Vega a Street Fighter character, but is also an extensively studied bright fucking star. I'm already learning from this post and I like that.
VEGA is also an artist from Austin, Texas which is arguably the best city in TX. His music is outer space large and beats vast in it's scope with some of the smoothest, casual, best friend vocals you can find on the planet. He also pops up on Miami Horror's "Bravado" ep, polishing an already non turd into a diamond. Yes, he's that magical.
I do have to wonder about the name choice. Is it because he is a pretty fighter from Spain who wears a mask so his face won't get ruined while fighting and had that one total Wolverine rip-off claw? Or is it because he's a bright star, blinding us with talent and pop genius? I could really take either, and maybe both.
Look out for this one duders. He's a keeper. The "All Too Vivid" 12 inch is coming soon and I can't wait. Let's star gaze for it together friends.

Active@ ISO Burner 4 (Freeware)
Active@ ISO Burner 4 is a simple-to-use dialog-style software to burn CD/DVD/Blu-ray ISO images compatible with the ISO 9660 standard. Automated burning is also supported.
New Features:
- Many more CD/DVD/BD devices supported, as well as fewer burning errors
- Three independent burning transports are supported (SPTI,ASPI,SPTD)
- Works under User's account (via SPTI on Vista, and SPTD transports)
- Extended device, media, and ISO file information is displayed
- Burning mode (TAO,SAO,DAO) and number of copies to burn can automatically be specified
- Full text log with actions performed, errors and progress information is displayed
- Configuration of after-burn actions supported: Verify, Eject, Shut Down PC
- Test Mode burning is supported
The freeware application allows you to burn an ISO image files to CD-R, DVD-R, DVD+R, CD-RW, DVD-RW, DL DVD+RW, HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc.
To burn a CD/DVD/Blue-ray ISO Image:
- Step: Enter full path to the ISO image file to be created in the Source field.
Use the Browse button to specify the path and file name via a standard File Save As... dialog. You can also Drag & Drop files from Windows Explorer to the Active@ ISO Burner dialog window.
You can also place ISO file to the same directory where Active@ ISO Burner is installed/copied. After program is launched, the ISO file will be selected automatically. A drop down list contains all ISO files burned previously, it may also help you re-select the ISO.
- Step: Insert a CD/DVD/Blu-ray disc into the burner drive.
Wait until media is properly detected and media information is displayed on the right. In the Target area verify the proper Burner to be chosen (if you have several burners), verify media information on the right, and click the BURN button.
In the most cases, default burning options are acceptable, however you can easily customize the process of burning by specifying:
- Burning Mode: Track-at-Once, Session-at-Once, Disk-at-Once (if supported by inserted media).
- Burning Speed: either Auto-Select, or select from the list of available writing speeds. Optimal burning speed depends on the disc used and burning device capabilities. Poorly chosen burning speed may result in coaster disc. To determine the best burning speed you can make test burns or consult your device and disc manufacturer's recommendations.
- Copies to Burn: if more than one specified — application will just wait until the next media is inserted, when burning is complete. Burning will start automatically.
- Erase Media: for Read-Write (RW) media type you can specify the Erase action explicitly.
Advanced options can be specified in the Options... dialog which is described below.
- Step: Wait until burning is complete. The log includes the actions performed, errors, and the progress. To cancel ISO image burning click the CANCEL button. After burning is complete, click the GO BACK button to burn another ISO image, or just close the application
Burning Options
Click the Options... button to open the burner settings dialog. Default settings are shown below:
- Transport — SCSI transport to use for device access:
- SPTI — SCSI Pass Through Interface — this transport is preferable and works only on NT based systems (NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008). Under Windows Vista it will allow you to burn under User's account (no Admin's privileges). No additional drivers or utilities need to be installed to use SPTI.
- SPTD — SCSI Pass Through Direct — this transport is preferable and works only on NT based systems (NT4/2000/XP/2003/Vista/2008). Additional SPTD drivers need to be installed (included in installation) and machine re-booted. If installed - allows to burn on ALL NT based systems under User's account (no Admin's privileges).
- ASPI — Advanced SCSI Programming Interface — this transport is primarily intended for Windows 9x systems (95/98/ME), but can be used on Windows NT based systems (included WnASPI32.dll must be located at the same directory where Active@ ISO Burner is installed/copied).
- Cache Size — size of the cache buffer in megabytes. Gives a basic level of Buffer Under RuN Error Protection using software buffers. The data, to be burnt, is kept in the system RAM, before it is burnt to the disc.
- Perform Buffer Underrun Protection (BUP) — sets the status of BURN-Proof (Buffer Under RuN error Proof) flag which helps in protection from BURN error.
- Perform Optimal Power Calibration (OPC) — sets the status of flag for performing OPC, before burning. Performing OPC is a special technique used in newer CD-Recorders for monitoring and maintaining the quality of the disc writing and ensuring the accuracy of all the mark and lands lengths across the disc. The term Performing OPC actually describes a general process which is also known by several trade names including "Dynamic Power Control (DPC)" and "Direct Read During Write (DRDW)". There may be differences in execution which gives some of these implementations competitive advantages over others. Sending OPC calibrates the device laser power at the beginning of burning session to adjust the properties of each recordable disc.
- After-burn Verify Data — After burning is complete — reads CD/DVD/BD media content being burned — to be matched with the source ISO file. Reports any errors detected (if any).
- After-burn Eject Media — after burning is complete — media will be ejected automatically.
- After-burn Shut Down PC — after burning is complete — application will try to shut down the local machine.
Automation of CD-ROM ISO files burning process
Active@ ISO Burner 4 software accepts the following command line parameters to automate ISO images burning process:
- "ISO-FILE" — first parameter is the full path to ISO image file to be burned
- /BURN — if the first parameter is valid (ISO image exists) - burn process starts automatically right after program launch
- /EXIT-IF-OK — if the burning process is successfully completed, program auto-exits. If errors are detected - error messages will appear in the dialog screen (no auto-exit).
To burn ISO image file
[C:\Program Files\FreeDOS\fdbasecd.iso]
automatically from command line and exit the program after successful burning, run:
C:\ISOBurner> IsoBurner.exe "C:\Program Files\FreeDOS\fdbasecd.ISO" /BURN /EXIT-IF-OK
Active@ ISO Burner software is free for distribution and commercial use.

Back in the January 2018 issue of DSWeb, we invited students and faculty to enter a new competition for software on dynamical systems theory and its applications. The goal of the contest was to promote the development of novel and creative software-based methods to analyze dynamical systems. Existing software in our large collection currently includes algorithms to examine the dynamic behavior of deterministic and stochastic ordinary differential equations, partial differential equations, and maps along with bifurcation behavior, network interactions, time series, and much more.
The submission deadline was June 30, 2018 (extended), and the selection committee, consisting of Bard Ermentrout, Abouzar Kaboudian, James Meiss, Peter van Heijster, and Lennaert van Veen, evaluated the exciting submissions.
The winners of the DSWeb Software Contest 2018 are as follows:
Winning entries were selected based on factors including ease of installation, ease of use, expected impact, genericity and complexity of the type of problem the software can tackle, and quality of documentation. Software packages submitted with major upgrades were allowed to compete and were evaluated regarding their upgrades only.
Each winner will receive a prize of $500 and a SIAM-DS certificate.
All submissions will be published in the DSWeb Software section, including the runners-up: DifferentialEquations.jl, EMBER (Emergence and Macroscopic Behavioural ExtRaction), tikz-network, pde2path, ARNI (Algorithm for Revealing Network Interactions), CIVET (Current-Inspired Visualization and Evaluation of the TASEP), LAPM/CompartmentalSystems/bc-md, and Classify Chimeras.
We thank all those who submitted new or updated software and urge readers to watch for an announcement regarding the upcoming Software Tutorials contest in the near future.

"Have you washed today?" he asks me as I block his passage to the world sugary cereal mountain and force him to give me a squeeze when he comes downstairs.
"No. Do I smell bad?"
"Un peu".
"Oh. Maybe it's my jumper?" I suggest hopefully.
"No. Your jumper smells nice. You smell bad".
"Do I smell worse than Oscar?"
"Should I wash?"
"Yes. But first make me petite crêpes with Nutella"
He's lovely company, if a little imperious, and we share a love of frequent biscuit based snack breaks and poking the dog gently. He has a way better work ethic than I do though. As I write he is industriously making an ant hill in the garden with a stick and the mighty force of his will. He has already steamrollered me into giving him pretty much everything he wants. I fear slightly for the rest of the week. We have made a firm date to go to the Scary Bat Caves (home of the escapee capybaras) one day, but apart from that I think I get to dance attendance on him, holding out a variety of beverages and biscuits with faces.
Lashes drew the short straw this week with compulsory attendance at the Stage That Is Not Butch Enough. Today he told me with total despair that they had cooked something with chicon, tomato and cheese (the trifecta of terror!) and he had been forced to taste it. He has been tight lipped about what else was involved, but having seen the medieval cowhide footwear and drapery the tremendously enthusiastic be-scarved organiser women were sporting, I fear kickboxing is unlikely to form a large part of the curriculum. He looked at me like this:
but it won't get him anywhere. One chocolate wafer eating zombie child in the house at the time is plenty.
"Mamie told me she thinks I am ten times as beau when my nose is clean".
I disagree.
(Blogging will probably be rubbish as a result for the rest of the week. Except for the bat caves).

Celso Machado comes from a large family of musicians and was already a master when I was beginning to play the guitar. In 1997, at the age of 24, he recorded his first album in the prestigious company of Marcus Pereira. Already in these compositions and arrangements one finds a very personal style of guitar playing, with lots of percussion; a style which would open the way to a whole generation of guitarists. His use of percussion is not limited to the guitar. He uses other instruments or simply his body. Some of Celso's tracks are unique, completely atypical, whilst others are based on traditional compositional forms, one finds here beginners' scores as well as pieces for experienced musicians. But in all the pieces the most important thing is always the music and pleasure.
It was in 1983 in São Paulo that our paths crossed, and that we started to play together. Later Celso went to live abroad. I did the same ten years later. Today he lives in Vancouver, where he has produced his latest CDs and where he performs concerts either solo or with other musicians. Among the encounters that our travels or that our concerts allowed us, we wanted to take the time to record some of Celso's pieces. I hope that you will take part in their spontaneity and generosity.

As a part of our Holiday Cocktail Series, we went out into the community to speak with local businesses and individuals whose work we admire, and asked them for their favorite holiday cocktail recipes. Last week, we had the opportunity to visit a newer craft beer, wine and spirits store in South Boston.
Social Wines is a beautiful place – clean lines, loads of light, and a very modern yet comfortable vibe. Rows and rows of beer, wine and spirits line the shelves, and you can see the attention to detail paid to each and every aspect of the store's interior. Reclaimed wood from a barn in Vermont serves as the counter where the register sites, and many of the store's metal fixtures and shelving units were assembled by a local welder. We were warmly welcomed by owners Chris and John, who had prepared a delightful cocktail to share with us that day.
While I had heard many good things about Social Wines, I myself had never visited, so it was nice to finally explore the space. They emphasize "smaller, independent and family-owned wine makers, brewers and distillers," which is something I truly admire about their business. As the trend shifts towards more small-batch, craft distilling, brewing and wine-making, it's so exciting to see another local business supporting that trend, and in turn our local producers. Speaking with Chris and John – who crafted this delicious holiday cocktail – it was clear that they are passionate about what they do!
The cocktail that John picked, called The Lion's Tail, is a drink that hails from the Cafe Royal Cocktail Book, but is said to have been originally published in the Vintage Spirits and Forgotten Cocktails book. It's base is bourbon, which is spruced up with an incredible allspice liquor, some lime and a touch of simple syrup. I'm not a big fan of bourbon, but I absolutely loved this cocktail. It was perfectly balanced, with notes of sweet, spice and acidity, all of which complemented each other so well. It was the quintessential holiday cocktail, with a spicy warming sensation that lingered after each sip.
The Lion's Tail
2 oz Bourbon Whiskey
3/4 oz Saint Elizabeth Allspice Dram
1/2 oz fresh lime juice
1/2 tablespoon simple syrup
2 dashes Angostura Bitters
Shake all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice, strain into a cocktail or martini glass, and serve straight up.
We're so grateful to Chris and John and the crew at Social Wines for having us in the share this outstanding cocktail! If you're ever in the neighborhood (the store is conveniently located off the red line Broadway T stop, and highway 93) – I'd encourage you to stop in for a visit!
