A reader sent us these photos, taken outside Xujiahui subway station, of two girls using the same type of inflatable Union Flag cushion as the now notorious 'subway sofa brother' photographed on Shanghai Metro Line 2 this week.
What do you think? Viral marketing campaign (which we're inadvertently assisting)? Art project? Lazy group of friends with shared cushion? Prelude to a British invasion?

All sorts of sports teach your child discipline, but very few sports are like Jiu Jitsu. If you have never thought about Jiu Jitsu for your kids right now might be the time. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art form that focuses on ground combat.
It's based on the idea that an advantage of a person who may weigh less, may be smaller or even may be skinny, they can defend themselves by using leverage with different holds. Here are the core benefits that will help your kids if they join Brazilian Jiu Jitsu:
Just like most sports, jiu jitsu is another form of exercise but it also involves more cardio and training than most. This art form teaches your child to warm up with exercises that involve cardio in practice moves for strengthening their body. This sport also involves one-on-one sparring for children and either their teachers or with other fellow students.
The shifting of weight with certain chokeholds & grapples, can work to a person who may seem like they have a lesser advantage. It also teaches kids how to avoid harm and to protect kids from potential danger. This will not only build their self-esteem but their hope in the ability to manage a harmful situation in their surrounding environments.
As mentioned above Jiu Jitsu can help your child gain their confidence and self-esteem. As your child trains, spars more and gets involved, they will be able to progress in life with self-doubt and self-esteem issues. Through each level, the student will gain more belts and this is a great reward system to help them gain their confidence.
This sport is unique in particular in that Brazilian Jiu Jitsu takes place year around and not just in a particular season. Also, the training here at Damri MMA is inside of the facility where you won't have to worry about the unpredictable hot weather. This is also a family sport where adults are also welcomed to train with their children as well.
This sport of martial arts teaches life lessons, brings structure to kids, and many more benefits. Each move in this sport takes great discipline in order to fully follow through with a move or hold. This in itself, requires great focus, perseverance and more benefits in a child's life. This type of discipline will also follow through with each child's home life and with that hard work it can create more motivation for a child to work more when they get older.

Get email delivery of the Cadence blog featured here
Berkovich was a speaker at the Cadence DAC Theater at the Design Automation Conference (DAC 2014) in June, where over 40 speakers -- mostly customers and partners -- offered informal presentations. Audio recordings and slides are now available for most of those talks, including Berkovich's presentation, at the Cadence DAC microsite.
Both virtual prototyping and emulation/acceleration allow pre-silicon software development. In the hybrid use model, fast CPU models run on a workstation as part of the Cadence Virtual System Platform (VSP), while RTL for most of the rest of the SoC hardware runs on the Palladium XP emulator. But in reality, it's not as simple as that. As Berkovich's team discovered, you have to know what to place on the VSP side and what goes in the emulator, and understand how the various SoC blocks will interact.
No One Platform Fits All
In his presentation, Berkovich first reviewed the challenges of pre-silicon software development. He noted that complex systems on chip (SoCs) need massive amounts of software development, that meeting time to market demands stable working software, and that hardware/software co-simulation is critical for verification. A software engineer needs a development platform with "very specific requirements," including high frequency (ability to run long tests), debug capabilities, and fast bring-up times.
Berkovich reviewed the advantages and limitations of existing hardware/software development platforms. Here are a few key points:
In view of these limitations, CSR engineers worked with Cadence to implement a Palladium-VSP hybrid approach. "You take off-the-shelf TLM models and put them on the VSP side," Berkovich said. "You put the rest of the hardware in the Palladium and let it run. You still maintain the debug capabilities you had with Palladium and you do it fast and have a quick turnaround time."
However, it's not that simple. What if the CPU needs to address DDR memory frequently, and the CPU is on the VSP side and the DDR is running in Palladium? If the DDR is running at 1.5MHz, all the information that's passed between the CPU and the DDR will slow down in order to synchronize to that rate. The remedy is to take the DDR and move it to the VSP side as well. Now there is very fast (100MHz) communication between the CPU and the DDR.
There may still be a bottleneck, however, because there are other blocks still in Palladium that must be accessed by the CPU and/or DDR. One solution is to instantiate two identical DDR IP blocks - one on the VSP side, and one on the Palladium side. A "back door interface" connects them and ensures coherency. Further, other blocks frequently accessed by the CPU - such as the UART - can run on the VSP side as well.
A Different Approach
Berkovich noted that the hybrid approach results in some important "differences" that hardware and software development teams must understand as they write tests. For example, the modeled CPU is not cycle-accurate, so performance tests will come out differently. Also, CPU models may have some limitations, such as only supporting in-order execution.
The proof is in the numbers, and Berkovich shared some impressive results. First, he noted that a "compressed" Linux boot took about 22 minutes on the Palladium XP alone and 16 seconds using the hybrid method. Next, a "video test" involving a video block on the Palladium side took 18 minutes in Palladium XP and 20 seconds using the hybrid approach. Finally, a full Linux boot with all features enabled took more than an hour on Palladium and less than 20 seconds on the hybrid.
"These tests showed us that the hybrid is excellent for CPU-centric designs," Berkovich concluded. "You can think about the hybrid as a bridge between two technologies - the Palladium simulation accelerator and the VSP. This bridge gave us a very fast platform with excellent debug capabilities. For us, the hybrid gave us the best of both worlds."

How the next Xbox could stop you from playing used games

A recent Kotaku post cites "one reliable industry source" to suggest that the still-unannounced successor to Microsoft's Xbox 360 will somehow prevent used games from being played on the system. The idea remains an unconfirmed rumor, of course, but it's something that members of the game industry have floated repeatedly in the past. It's also a move that would likely find hefty support from publishers looking for a way to stop what they see as erosion of their profits thanks to used games (the reality is a bit more complicated than that, but we won't rehash that old argument here).
The renewed debate got us wondering, though: how might such a used-game prevention system actually work on a technical level?

Dizzy Gillespie
Live at Singer Concert Hall - 1973
Live at Laren Jazz Festival - 1975
At 51, not only had she mastered the full range of her own vocal abilities, from throaty lows to sparkling highs – she'd also sustained the same warmth and dexterity as when she was 20. That night, she captured even the slightest emotion, seeking communion with each person in the audience as though they were unique. As though she had singled them out, and was singing to no one else. A pause. A long sigh. She must have pulled a funny face, musing "It's so hot in here!". Peals of laughter in the club.
The newspapers praised her unanimously: "Despite the tropical heat in the Singer Concert Hall, Sarah Vaughan did not skimp on her performance. She regaled her audience with her peerless jazz interpretations and ballads. It was hard to imagine anything the Divine couldn't do. This was Sarah Vaughan at her absolute best.
The ultimate analog medium. A fascinating phenomenon only now mastered by a handful of skilled engravers, lacquer demonstrates exceptional physical properties, making it possible to capture even the most intricate nuance and texture of a recording. Cut from a single sheet of aluminium coated in nitrocellulose, lacquer is extremely fragile, and wears off as the recording is listened to.
A sublime and fleeting experience, to be savoured like a fine vintage or live concert.
Once in a lifetime. Few people have the privilege of experiencing this unique medium. The casing for these limited edition lacquers was entrusted to Philippe Atienza and Pierre Gerber, both Meilleurs Ouvriers de France. An exquisite piece of craftsmanship.

Like almost every other business owner on earth I'm reflecting on this past year in business and planning for the new one. 2017 was a year of Phoenix-ing the fuck out of my business. Rising from the ashes each time a little more pissed and jaded, but somehow more determined than before. Stubborn is as stubborn does, I guess. Im kind of laughing at myself now think how I was envisioning a much smoother ride last January. I did have clearer vision, focus and all the ambition in the world, but that still didn't stop me from belly flopping in the shallow end of business ownership on occasion. That's right. I had some failures.
But just because I had some failures doesn't mean I am a failure. Each time I failed, my business changed a little. It improved. Without failur my business would not work like it does now. While we all aspire to be that person who lucks into a successful business model on the first try and magically starts crushing every financial expectation, I think deep down we know that's not realistic. Hope for the best, brace for the worst? No. First, I do not hope. Hope is not a strategy. Actually it's the most non strategy there ever was because it doesn't specify any tangible action or reaction. Hoping, wishing, and praying need to be done in unison with taking action. There is no part of any strategy that will help you accomplish your goals or fix problems by sitting back and crossing your fingers.
So here we are, right at the ass end of 2017 and ready to hit the restart button. How can we do better? Well, first we should learn how to fail! In my opinion there is a better way to fail and it starts with looking at failure as a positive thing. Nothing brings about needed change like failure and the sooner we accept and embrace failure for all the good things it brings us, the better off we will be. Here are just some of the things I think make failing so awesome.
How committed are you to the following:
your plan?
That plan's timeline?
Your clients?
Their satisfaction?
To quality?
To your employees?
To yourself?
When we fail to make commitments we fail to really nail down our objective, and if there's no objective there is no blue print for how to accomplish it. This is where things get awfully wibbely wobbly and fall apart. Failure is eminent, and again your commitment will be challenged. Let's use mission statements as an example. From my experience working with clients there's often not a huge amount of time or energy spent on whipping up a mission statement. Probably due to their shitty title. No one knows what the fuck a mission is or why it's important. A mission is literally your businesses commitment and something to fall back on when you need direction. Your mission statement helps you to remain consistent, and it helps your audience understand what is important to you and how you're working toward those values every single day. Ok back to commitment.
Now that you've experienced some kind of failure and you know what doesn't work, how committed are you to:
Fixing it?
Starting again?
Admitting defeat and what brought you there?
Own it. If you fuck it up, own it. If someone on your team fucked something up on your watch, YOU need to own it. After all their hiring and training falls squarely on your shoulders. Take ownership of failure and then take ownership of improvement. Take responsibility for holding others and yourself accountable. If you suck at self accountability find a mentor or an accountability group. Learn and grow from the knowledge you need to own the shit out of your results every single day. We live in an excuse ridden era where we'd rather point the blame on anything or anyone other than ourselves. I've blogged and facebooked about this before, but this a great opportunity to revisit this amazing question!
WHAT IS YOUR BUT? ....Yeah, you heard me. What is that thing you say " I really wanted to do this BUT......" fill in any excuse you can think of here. The hard hitting truth is you're either going to make an excuse or you're going to execute. It's really that simple. Not everything is easy, but we make excuses as a surival instinct to talk ourselves away from things that make us nervous. It's really fight or flight and 110% all mental. There's always a way, you just need to realize no one can do it but you and you need to do both of these things COMMIT and OWN the shit out of it.
Challenge what you know, and challenge industry standards. There are so many different ways to arrive at the same answer. Challenge your failure. How can it make you a bigger and better person? How did this failure teach you something? Failure doesn't make your vision or your objective wrong, it makes the plan for achieving them better. There are infinite ways to refine a plan until it works, but you must be willing to challenge yourself not to give up too quickly. Challenge what you know and what you don't. Challenge yourself to push on even through the set backs.
Rushing into anything almost guarantees an incredibly high failure rate. Don't forget to plan. Don't forget structure. Don't forget that YOU need a system. That system doesn't have to look anything like anyone else's, but it does have to keep you from distractions, and skipping important steps in achieving your goal! Be patient and forgiving of yourself. You don't know what you don't know, but don't worry..you WILL find out as soon as you're in a situation that requires expertise you simply don't possess. Prioritize quality over quantity. Do not learn on the clients dime. They deserve a fully equipped and knowledgable professional and you need to do a quality jobs. Don't rush into work you aren't qualified to do just for the sake of earning a paycheck. Patience doesn't pay the bills in the now, but it will in the long run when you take the time to really specify the who, what, when, where and why of your business.
Accept and admit defeat. Ask for help! Outsource those things you don't know how to do, don't want to do, or those things you are just shitty at doing. Be honest with yourself and own your strengths and opportunities. The more focused you can be on the things you're good at it and love to do the better you will be. The support is out there just waiting for you to ask for it. Unfortunately not everything in business is a DIY project. Leave the DIY to pillow making, and decorations. We've all seen those Pinterest cupcake fails. There are just as many business related Pinterest fails, but snapping a photo of those issues are generally closely guarded secrets and in the moment, probably not very funny to us.... maybe this should be thing?!
Fake it till you make it no more! Fail the shit out of something and then come clean. Share the story. Share your missteps and the learning experiences. It just might help someone else, or shed a very much needed light on the topic of business failures. One mishap isn't going to sink your business, but you would be surprised how many people walk away without ever realizing their potential all because they felt they were struggling alone. Without candidly sharing their hardship with anyone they were unable to get the support and encouragement they needed. Not to mention the help they needed to right their wrongs.
Get real. Like, really real. Especially with yourself on your strengths and weaknesses. Make a plan for improving the things you care to do better. Be honest with your employees and your clients. Admit when you've fudged it up. You're human. Making mistakes is very, very common. Take responsibility instead of deflecting blame or making excuses. Is this sounding familiar yet?! When it comes to failures it is so much easier to point the finger, but that doesn't help us grow. It's super hard to take the reason you'd like to blame the failure on and then there's usually the real reason somewhere under that…pointing right back in your direction.
So what does this all have to do with branding? And my answer really isn't any different than the answers I've given in the past. This all has EVERYTHING to do with branding. Every decision you make impacts client experience, and your brand identity, which is how people feel, and view your business. When we try to sweep failure under the rug there's just a huge lump under the rug for us to keep tripping over. Using it to our advantage by growing and learning from it helps us to architect a better brand that strategically understand our clients needs better, and helps our business efficiently rise to the occasion.
Think of a flower for a moment. Pretty and conspicuous on the outside, but flowers have stems and roots that keep them alive, and although not as pretty are still essential to its existence. Branding your business internally might be more important in 2018 than it ever has. The need for small business branding to be more sensual and intimate increases daily. People want to know the business they're supporting better than they ever did before. They want to support businesses that matter to them. They want to feel connected and invested in a part of your story, and the very first step to all of that is knowing how to fail and what do when it happens!

Ciao, Tutti! My name is Stacy, and I'm here to share some of my thirty-something wisdom with you. This blog, at least so far, is a collection of things that matter to me – food (I am half-Sicilian, after all), crafts (watch out, Martha), the fight to get fit, teaching (I'm a high school English teacher), living with fibromyalgia, and the love of my life: my dog.
I'm looking at this About section as a personal ad, so here some things that you should know about me: I'm a teacher by profession, and a writer by destiny. I'm a poet in pursuit of an MFA. I prefer the beach in the early morning or at night. I like to wander around new places and see what happens. I love love love shoes. And floppy hats. And books. And photography. And my dog. I really like to have green things around, but I manage to kill all plants that make their way into my life. I have fibromylagia, and there some days that I can't even function. But I never give up, I never complain, and I never let it win. I love to cook, but will never post my Nonna's Sunday sauce recipe; there are some things that are sacred, and that's one of them. My pursuit of knowledge is ongoing.

Create a page for Tundra?[edit]
Hey, do you think Halopedia should have a page for the forged variant of Sandbox, Tundra, shown in the weekly update this week?
This map will be in matchmaking, and I think, should have a page.
Hey, Dragonclaws! I've recently made the UNSC Sidebar template, and I found out that Halopedia apparently doesn't support the show/hide button feature. The template is fairly long, and it would really need those little show/hide buttons for the lists in order to be used properly.
I saw this page: http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:ShowHide_content. It says there's some kind of plug-in that can be added to the MediaWiki files in order for the show/hide buttons to function. I was thinking it might be helpful in making this feature work on the site. I've also contacted Manticore regarding this, but I haven't received a reply yet. Thanks a million! --UNSC Trooper TalkMy Work 18:24, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Hey Dragonclaws,
Though I have a problem with the image, if you do insist on placing it on a blog for everyone to read, just remember that we do have Jewish and by extension, Israeli users. As for the Satanists, I don't give two sh!ts about them.
But yeah, just felt like giving my off-topic shenanigan comment of the week XD. Have a good one Ryan!

Kingdom Hearts Wiki Staff[edit]
Hello, Dragonclaws. My name is DoorToNothing, and I am a Moderator over at the Kingdom Hearts Wiki. Recently, the staff and I noticed that you have two templates that we wanted to implement into our wiki: Template:Era and Template:Eraicon. We tried to implement the the two templates onto our Wiki, with minor changes such as the image and game-name. However, even with the help of our coding master (ILHI), we still can't get it to work. We've added a few things to our MediaWiki's CSS and JS that you use to try to get it working, but still no results. Could you please take a look at our templates and MediaWiki's CSS and JS to help us get this working, and maybe even give us a draft of what our MediaWiki's CSS and JS should look like with the necessary coding? Our templates can be found here:

Hey I know someone with in my school with Asperger's too. Everybody thinks he's a little weird though. Interforce
- Oh? That is common. Neurologically atypical people think differently from the neurologically typical. --Dragonclaws(talk) 19:54, April 30, 2010 (UTC)
- Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder. I'm using the common language. The thing is that autism is often regarded as a defect, something that afflicts people who would otherwise be normal. The term "neurotypical", which I've clarified in the longer term "neurologically typical", was coined as a way to describe "normal" people. With a name for each, it is more clear that there are two different categories of people. Autism is then treated in a less stigmatizing way. --Dragonclaws(talk) 21:11, April 30, 2010 (UTC)
- Cool, aspies unite! I'd say it's more of alterntive brain setup then anything else. We're better than others in some ways, worse in others. That said, the severity of autsim and aspergers varies quite a bit. Jabberwockxeno 15:11, 12 January 2011 (EST)

just saying hi[edit]
hey dragonclaws hows it going -Бесславной ублюдок 20:32, 27 April 2011 (EDT)
PAX Prime[edit]
Hey Dragonclaws, you going to PAX Prime in Seattle this year by any chance?
- No, but I am going to Dragon Con... which seems odd as it's on the other side of the country. I thought Summer Glau might be there, but it doesn't look like it. A lot of other stars are going, though. --Dragonclaws(talk) 15:41, 23 June 2011 (EDT)
Hi Dragonclaws!
I come to you, knowing that you're the most active administrator when it comes to featured content (i.e. article, quotes), to propose a centralised project page for featured content. Along with this, I suggest two new featured content page for the landing page; Featured Image/Picture and Featured Video.
The format/tree-map of the central page would be as so:
- Project:Featured
- Project:Featured/Articles
- Project:Featured/Quotes
- Project:Featured/Images
- Project:Featured/Videos
In addition to this proposal, I suggest randomisation (or automatic rotation) rather than one-per-month process. It will certainly improve the uniqueness of the landing page. :) — subtank 10:58, 20 October 2011 (EDT)
- It sounds like a good idea, especially the automatic rotation part. We did have Featured Images at one point. Would the featured content still appear on the main page? --Dragonclaws(talk) 16:14, 20 October 2011 (EDT)
- Or is that what you meant by landing page? --Dragonclaws(talk) 21:42, 20 October 2011 (EDT)
Urban Holland protection[edit]
Hi Dragonclaws, can you remove the sysop protection for the Urban Holland page? -Kronos101 18:22, 23 October 2011 (EDT)
- Done.— subtank 18:27, 23 October 2011 (EDT)
ilb OGG files[edit]
Do note that you can utilise the Listen template for ilb's OGG files. Readers wouldn't need to open the file in a new tab and can just play it using the template. :) — subtank 09:49, 27 November 2011 (EST)
- Okiedokie. Is this new? --Dragonclaws(talk) 14:00, 27 November 2011 (EST)
- Or I guess I could just look at the history. In any case, I didn't know of its existence, so thanks. --Dragonclaws(talk) 14:03, 27 November 2011 (EST)
Hey as you can see on my page: Here. I am Steahl_Senka. I cannot login into my other account, nor can I find the email address that it sent the "new" password too. It would be possible for you to tell me? I would prefer keeping this account and having the other one locked, but so be it. Thanks in advanced. Steahl 19:28, 6 February 2012 (EST)
- I'm not sure there's a way in without those without going into the system code. You could ask Porplemontage about it, but I don't know how doable that is. --Dragonclaws(talk) 21:32, 6 February 2012 (EST)
Holy crap, dude...[edit]
You're still here??? I have to say I'm pretty surprised. I'm trying to get back into the swing of things. - AgentSeethroo
- I got invested in the community project. Why leave? --Dragonclaws(talk) 12:47, 26 May 2012 (EDT)
- Fair enough. I had one of those "life falls apart" periods in my life, then I moved to an area with no high speed internet. Things are the way they should be now, so I'd like to be involved again. - Still Teh Seethroo
about coral[edit]
what system is coral in? i cant find anything about it, and i know that reach is in Epsilon-Eridanus, and Earth is in Sol, but what is coral in? i am writing about it and i kinda wanna get things correct... —This unsigned comment was made by 126.96.36.199 (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~!
- Coral's star system is unknown, as it has never been identified in canon.--Spartacus, Halopedia Administrator Talk 23:05, 7 October 2012 (EDT)
- Yeah, i love bees described it as being 42 light-years from Earth, but that was probably just a reference to the studio that made the game: 42 Entertainment. Though Bungie/343i has been adopting i love bees, until it's mentioned in something since then, we don't know exactly what the authorities think about it. --Dragonclaws(talk) 02:08, 8 October 2012 (EDT)

User page image issue[edit]
Ok so I need a favor. You know your images in your user page description. Is there any chance we can get removed from it and moved into Halopedia:History in a new Gallery section? I am aiming to have them have a real purpose on the wiki for our history, and also need a easy way to rename them without causing a redlink or a redirect.-CIA391 (talk) 13:13, 3 September 2018 (EDT)
- Sure. Just let me know when to delete them/edit my page away from its current state. --Dragonclaws(talk) 03:38, 4 September 2018 (EDT)
- I'm confused. What exactly do you want me to do? --Dragonclaws(talk) 12:31, 4 September 2018 (EDT)
- In your "About Me" section on your user page you have a set of images in it. I am asking for them to be removed from it. So they can be renamed without causing a redirect, and also moved into the Halopedia:History page so they can be used in a useful way for the whole wiki. That clearer?-CIA391 (talk) 12:56, 4 September 2018 (EDT)
- Okay, I deleted the section. Hope that covered it. --Dragonclaws(talk) 05:00, 5 September 2018 (EDT)

Kyle & Caroline
What started as a request to design Kyle and Caroline's wedding invitations, soon turned into the perfect opportunity to create a memorable wedding gift.
As Kyle brews beer and Caroline has a taste for rustic and vintage motifs, each portrait is positioned within a classic oval with flair that reflects these interests. The crest in the center was also researched to reflect both their family names, where they met, and where they live now.

- As I alluded to in the past, once we get the final piece of that Missaglias stuff, I'll swap over to it for a while. In that time, I'll re-dye Ivory & Ebony Al's armor looks pretty nice for Carnivale, but I'm still a sucker for the original outfit.

Notes -
- Something that I removed was a bit more info on Claudius. This guy was left alive and knocked around by Caligula because everybody already saw him as a weakling of sorts. He had a limp, was indecisive, hard of hearing, and so forth. He was just "that guy" that nobody saw as a political threat. During Sejanus and Caligula's "removal" of figures in society, Claudius was seen as, well, harmless. That's largely why he didn't get killed or something of the sort. After Caligula's death, he was quite literally the only remaining legitimate choice.
- Also, another thing that played against Cassius: he and the senators wanted to oust the entire dynasty, but the Praetorian guard weren't on the same page. Claudius was still part of that same dynasty (Julio-Claudian, which ended with Nero). Basically, you had the senate who was on Cassius' side, and they wanted to squash the whole dynasty. The Praetorians, who, by this point, were a major entity as a whole, just wanted Caligula offed (though I've seen mention that the Praetorians who helped Cassius were a splinter faction). Hence why they grabbed Claudius and threw the heap of the blame on Cassius. Prior to Sejanus' death, in fact, the Praetorian didn't have a massive political impact. The choice to make Claudius the emperor was the first major display of how much political power they held. The senate wasn't keen on this choice, but the Praetorian guard was the muscle; the politicians weren't about to butt heads with them.
Edit: Additional Notes -
Yeah, it was one of the things that I removed I eyeballed my outline, guess-timated that it'd take me an hour, so I picked-and-chose about 25% of the material and winged it. I also hoped to cover Germanicus a bit more, because he was pretty awesome.
Paracelsus posted:
No mention of Incitatus and the senate, though?
For example, Tiberius kind of blew off his promises to give a bonus to the guys on the frontlines of Germania. They were on the verge of rebelling, so Germanicus went to the front line and said "hey guys, let's go loot and pillage. Keep everything you find!" He ended up turning a pretty nasty situation in to a surge of frontline morale & territorial expansion Some historians think that Tiberius actually had a hand in Germanicus' death (ie: put the Syrian governor up to it) because he was jealous/intimidated by his popularity. Tiberius didn't want to be emperor, but in his hayday, he was essentially a military superstar of sorts kind of like Germanicus.
Also, a bit of a tie-in, but remember Octavian/Augustus who I mentioned with Cleopatra? Tiberius was his step-son. There's a lot more stuff with Tiberius, though. His life story is pretty sad He was pretty happily married to Vispania Agrippina, and while she was pregnant with their second child, due to political machinations, Augustus forcefully divorced the two of them (both of them were very happy with their marriage, mind you). Vispania had a breakdown, the baby was stillborn, and Augustus saw to it that the two of them rarely crossed paths. He was forced to marry Julia the Elder (who, in most basic terms, was a horrible woman who slept around all the time and loved to humiliate Tiberius), who he downright despised. Also, Vispania was forced in to another marriage. Drusus, the first (and only) child that Vispania and Tiberius had, was claimed as the son of her new husband (Gaius Asinius Gallus Saloninus). He basically went "Tiberius? Haw haw. No, I'm your father, Drusus " He was also best pals with Emperor Augustus, making him untouchable.
In case you think this is just history putting prejudice on things, about ten or fifteen years after Vispania died, Saloninus began to court Germanicus' widow. Tiberius already had the guy on his shitlist (ie: had the senate declare him an enemy of Rome), so he said "y'know what? I'm throwing you in prison. Oh, and food? You aren't getting any."
Three years of solitary confinement later (with minimal food), he starved to death! Happy ending, yes?

The Morning Risk Report: Musk's Go-Private Tweets Could Bring Regulatory Scrutiny
Readers can subscribe to The Morning Risk Report here: http://on.wsj.com/MorningRiskReportSignup. Follow us on Twitter at @WSJRisk.
Good morning. Tesla Inc. has given no indication how the company would pay for the idea of taking it private that was broached Tuesday by Chief Executive Elon Musk--and some of the wording used in Mr. Musk's tweets could draw the attention of regulators, WSJ's Dave Michaels and Michael Rapoport report.
In one tweet about the plan, Mr. Musk said: "Funding secured." But the company has given no details of how such a buyout would work or if funding is indeed in place.
If Tesla doesn't move ahead with a deal, or if the funding isn't set, regulators could probe whether Mr. Musk made a false statement that caused the price of his company's stock to skyrocket about 11%.
Mr. Musk made the disclosure on his Twitter account, where he has over 22 million followers and has lashed out at short sellers, reporters and other critics of his company. Mr. Musk joked earlier this year on Twitter about Tesla going into bankruptcy at a time when his company's cash position was under scrutiny.
Mr. Musk released an email he sent to Tesla workers Tuesday, which said a buyout would be subject to a shareholder vote. But he didn't offer proof to back up his claim that he has money for to take the company private at $420 a share.
If he doesn't, his statement "could be seen as manipulation" of Tesla's share price, said John Coffee, a securities law professor at Columbia University. "That's a factual statement, and if it's material, that's the kind of lawsuit plaintiffs' lawyers regard as Christmas in August," said Mr. Coffee.
Regulators could examine the facts behind Mr. Musk's statement if Tesla doesn't follow through with regulatory filings that explain the terms of the deal. The Securities and Exchange Commission can file fraud charges against companies and corporate officers it believes to have made misleading or false statements.
An SEC spokeswoman declined to comment.

Coupled Multibody and Finite Element Analysis of Rail Substructure Behavior
This project will improve the coupled multibody/finite element model developed in the previous NURail project. Furthermore, the project will apply the model to examine bridge approaches as well as examine vibrations in buildings. The model improvements will include using a physical damping matrix to better represent the damping in different components of the system, notably the fasteners. The project will also couple the approach to a three-invariant visco-plastic soil plasticity model. This soil model will allow us to capture permanent settlement of the rail ballast, subballast, and subgrade. Two applications of the current model will be investigated. First, the project will apply the models to examine the track transitions, especially bridge approaches. Such transitions are well known to cause more wear and maintenance than typical track stretches. The project will also examine the potential of using an approach slab to reduce stress in the subgrade as well as the contact forces between the rail and wheel. The second application to be studied here is the effect of vibrations from passing trains on nearby buildings. The modal decomposition used in this approach is natural for examining vibrations. The magnitude of both the displacement and acceleration will be used to quantify the effects of the vibration on structures, and these quantities will be compared to building code values to assess occupant comfort or, in extreme cases, building damage.

Did you know Avocado is a fruit?
And it's a unique fruit because it is high in protein unlike most carb-rich fruits. Avocados contain a wide variety of nutrients, including 20 different vitamins and minerals. In fact, avocados even have more potassium than bananas. The great news is that avocados do not contain any cholesterol or sodium and they are low in saturated fat. Avocados are a delicious healthy addition to any diet...so eat up!

Sometimes the smallest of things can fill us with the inspiration to travel.
For instance, a short quote can often say an awful lot more than a 60-second TV advertisement.
Take some of the quotes we've collected here, for example.
You may have seen one or two of these on Facebook or even Instagram (if that's your thing). Either way, we thought you might appreciate an image post all about our own ten favourite quotes about travel. So here they are…
You never know, this might be the inspiration you need to get that 2018 trip booked sooner rather than later!
"Travel far enough – you'll meet yourself."
Who said it: David Mitchell (British author)
Why we love it: This may be a quote directly pulled from a sci-fi novel (Cloud Atlas), but the sentiment behind it is firmly rooted in reality. We're pretty sure there are many travellers out there who would definitely agree with this. The beauty of travel is that it (literally) broadens your horizons, and this quote gets that message across beautifully.
"Travelling leaves you speechless… Before you turn into a storyteller…"
Who said it: Ibn Battuta (14th century Moroccan scholar)
Why we love it: The contradictory nature of this quote is what makes it so poignant. Seeing the world's treasures can indeed leave you speechless and in awe, but you can always be sure that seeing the world will also leave you with a story tell.
"Take only memories, leave only footprints..."
Who said it: Chief Seattle (Native American tribe leader)
Why we love it: This doesn't just apply to travel but also life in general. People often worry about where life is going and where they might end up – but life is all about making memories. Travelling makes it easy to make those golden memories that will stay with you forever.
"One's destination is rarely a place… But a new way of doing things…"
Who said it: Henry Miller (American author)
Why we love it: We like this because it highlights how travelling adds value to one's life. It sells the benefits of seeing new places – not simply as just another geographic location, but as a new life experience.
"Travel and change of place impart new vigour to the mind…"
Who said it: Seneca (Roman philosopher)
Why we love it: The beauty of travel is that it has the capability to change a person for the better. This particular quote beautifully articulates this. We definitely believe that travel is beneficial for a healthy mind and general well-being.
"Who lives sees, but who travels sees more…"
Who said it: Ibn Battuta (14th century Moroccan scholar)
Why we love it: Another famous quote from the man who spent most of his life travelling the medieval Middle East. Again, it sells the vast benefits of seeing as much of the world as you can, and also plays on the notion that those who don't travel are simply missing out!
"We wander for distraction. We travel for fulfillment."
Who said it: Hillaire Belloc (20th century author and poet)
Why we love it: Again, this ties in beautifuly with the way in which travelling can enrich a person's life. You only live once, and that sense of fulfillment you get from travelling to new places is never to be underestimated.
"Travel teaches toleration."
Who said it: Benjamin Disraeli (former British prime minister)
Why we love it: It's short, snappy and to the point. Not the sort of thing you'd typically expect from a politician!
"Half the fun of travel is the aesthetic of lostness."
Who said it: Ray Bradbury (American author)
Why we love it: People often think that getting lost is a bad thing. Going 'off the beaten track' is often the most exciting aspect of travelling to unfamiliar places. You can often arrive at the most beautiful places by accident.
"Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection."
Who said it: Lawrence Durrell (British author)
Why we love it: We all lead often hectic lives at times, and sometimes it's difficult to find the time to be introspective. Travelling often presents you with the best opportunity to take time and reflect. This time is often under-valued, and visiting new and exciting places can teach you an enormous amount about your character.
So, there you have it. Feeling excited and energised about your next trip?
Ready to book?
Well, before you do – it's important to make sure you get the right travel insurance.

What to Look For In a Tow Company
Whether you need a tow, roadside assistance or car lock out assistance, you want to know that your choice of tow company is the right one. These are some of the qualities Meteo Towing Garland believes you should be on the lookout for.
When you need to call a tow company, you don't want to have to worry about getting ripped off or being taken advantage of. A tow company that's honest about every aspect of their service, from beginning to end, is a must.
You don't want to be stuck on the roadside for hours on end wondering when you're going to get the attention your simply need. Your tow provider must be punctual, efficient and reliable then.
No matter how honest and reliable a tow company is, if it can't do the job then it's rendered useless. You need to ensure you hire the services of an experienced and expert tow provider.
Appropriate Equipment
Depending on your vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle, etc.), you may need different types of tows (flatbed, dolly, heavy duty, etc.). Therefore, your choice of tow company should be based on whether it has the appropriate equipment or not.
Licensing and Insurance
A tow company without the correct licensing and insurance should be avoided at all costs. Any damage incurred will not be covered by unlicensed and uninsured tow companies, which could prove very costly for you.
Of course, in these tough times, cost is important. Nobody can afford to throw money away on unnecessarily expensive towing, but in the same breath, conspicuously low pricing might start the alarm bells ringing. Find an honest tow company and you'll likely find an honest price.
If you need help with towing in and around Garland, Texas, make a call to Metro Towing ; a reliable, honest and affordable tow company. We've got the local knowledge and technical expertise to help you off the roadside and back onto the road, and we won't charge you an arm and a leg for the privilege.

Union leaders today attacked the "stratospheric" level of directors' pay after new research showed that chief executives earned almost 100 times more than other workers.
Pay analysts Incomes Data Services said average earn-ings of top executives had doubled since the year 2000.
The pay of chief executives of the top 100 firms in the country had jumped by 43 per cent from just over £2 million to £2.8 million in the past year alone, said the report.
The earnings included basic wages, long-term incentive payments and gains made from selling share options.
The new figures showed that the country's top 100 company executives now earned 98 times more than all full-time workers, up from 39 at the beginning of the decade.
TUC general secretary Brendan Barber said: "It is hard not to conclude that this further huge rise in executive pay is more about greed than performance. No-one should now have any illusions that executive remuneration has been brought under control.
"Giving shareholders a vote on boardroom pay has failed to rein in excess. Remuneration committees have simply found new ways to keep pushing up pay.
"The stratospheric levels of directors' pay compared to average wages mean that executives now live in a class apart, even from employees in their own companies. It is not just socially divisive, but bad for the economy."
John Cridland, CBI deputy director-general, said it was "essential" to recruit the right people.

Glass production and its history trace back to the earliest times. It is known that in Egypt and in Mesopotamia people were making glass more than 6000 years ago. Discovered archeological excavations of decorative dishware, women's embellishments certify of a booming glass and glassware production.
Usual plate glass or float is a basic material which after various types of processing turns into a final product which is always present in our daily life.
Glass castles
In modern world glass is a complete building material. The main consumer of glass today is a building industry.
Today light-transmission constructions play an important role both in exterior and interior of buildings. They are often used in construction of shop windows, porches, winter gardens, wind lobbies and entrance halls, for guard of staircases, balconies, terraces, lifts, parapets with the aim of prevention of falls from height, picture windows, and atriums. It would be impossible to create all this architectural magnificence without the use of the most fragile building material – glass. A wide variety of glass is used with architectural and designer aims: armored, various convex and concave glass flats, triplexes, stained-glass windows and glass packets.
Irrespective whether it is a usual window, stained-glass window or a decorative unit of furniture, for example, modern glass tabletops or fire screens our specialist strongly recommend to use only heat-strengthened glass for these articles. It is more resistant to damages and temperature differences and in case of mechanical breakdown it is smashed into safe pieces with blunt edges and not into large and sharp ones. Such glass withstands temperature up to 300 º.
Three in one
Today the builders widely use triplex or laminated glass for creation of extra-strong light-transmission constructions. It consists of several layers, as a rule of 3 ones, which are fastened with special polymer. Triplex is known as anti-vandal glass and there are reasons for that: it doesn't break up into pieces thanks to a special membrane which fixes fragments of broken glass. Besides, this multilayer glass has noise-insulating properties. That's why it is widely used in wall (including operable walls), floor and ceiling constructions.
Triplex is of great significance for interior designers: it can be absolutely transparent, tinted, colored, rippled, and patterned (in this case decorative inner linen is used).
Energy-saving (heat-saving) and the so-called selective glasses (solar-protective, tinted) are of special importance for dwelling-houses. The first one conserves heat in winter and coolness in summer while the latter protects against sun and ultra-violet rays. These properties the glass obtains due to a thin coat of metals. Thanks to their conductivity the material selectively admits or reflects radiation in particular wave ranges. For example, heat emissions from building to the outside go into the so-called distant IK-range while maximum of sun radiation is concentrated in a near IK-range. Accordingly, heat-saving glass has a high reflection index in a distant range conserving all heat inside the room whereas glass with a high reflection index in a near range protects from bright sun.
Electrically heated glass is rather an interesting and new product. Its main functions are protection against ice coating and providing of additional heating of rooms for establishment of a comfortable microclimate. In Europe such glasses are widespread but on our market they remain in future perspective, although the effectiveness of its applying is already seen in regions. Besides it is used in commercial and suburban building (shop windows, translucent roofs, winter gardens, French windows) and in machine-building industry (glazing cars, trains, and river vessels).
You can make the glass heat in the following ways: put a plug into a socket, set a temperature of heating, view indexes of temperature outside or connect a glass packet to an intelligent control system "A comfortable House". But it is necessary to consider that the cost of electrical facility can many times exceed the cost of heated glass.
Frameless balcony glazing is also popular today. There are no frames between glass panels and each glass panel can be opened fully and slide to the left or right side of the balcony. The benefits of the frameless balcony glazing system are convenience and coziness of the balcony. You can freely view the surrounding sights. Glass doors and glass connecting walls are at the peak of fashion today. They visually extend the room being a noble and valuable material in interior design. Combining of tinted, transparent and patterned glass in one article is very advantageous. Sliding glass doors and transparent mobile walls are especially fashionable in interior design. In mobile constructions only tempered glass is used. Thanks to a special fixing system and rail mechanism it slides gently and noiselessly. Interior items of glass can be variously decorated: frosted, tinted, and painted with special glass stain. Any pattern may be applied to a glass flat due to such hi tech methods as photographic printing and laser marking.
New facets of glass packaging
The history of glass packaging goes back more than 3500 years. However new and new design variants, methods of casting and decoration of glass cans and bottles appear every day. Relief forms of packing, protruding logos and patterns applied with the help of screen printing and dried by ultraviolet, acid-etching and colored membrane are only a few examples of the last advanced technologies. Applying of these technologies makes any product packed in a glass packaging look impressive. It is undoubted that a glass packaging experiences a rebirth today. New technologies allow creating of containers which endure not only high-speed packing but also attract customer's attention. One of the advantageous factors of glass packaging is a relative cheapness of glass bottles and cans (aluminum beer can costs 1.5-2 times more than a usual bottle), environmental friendliness and impermeability. Conservatism of some buyers who prefer a traditional glass packaging is also a significant factor.
We are looking forward to your calls and emails!

Glass half-full or half empty?Posted: April 10, 2013 Filed under: Canada, Economics, Europe, Trade Leave a comment
I'm usually not much of an optimist but decided that, as it relates to trade issues, I should try it out.
A free trade agreement between the United States and the European Union is finally moving closer to reality. While significant challenges remain, strong support in both markets has dramatically improved the likelihood of the deal's success, shaking the lull created by the demise of the Doha Development Round. The aggregate economic effects of a trans-Atlantic agreement and the risks for those left out may, in fact, work to create sufficient pressure on other trading partners to allow for a resumption of WTO talks. As a result, and almost ironically, the WTO will be given another chance to prove itself as the forum for global trade governance.
While the actions of the United States and the European Union since the onset of negotiations towards the Doha Development Round have done little to indicate a true commitment to a multilateral agenda, the negative impacts of the ongoing shift to bilateral/regional agreements create significant incentives for new efforts to be made through the WTO.

The global competition for innovationPosted: April 8, 2013 Filed under: Canada, china, Innovation, Technology 2 Comments
(Cross-posted at www.deepcentre.com)
Whether measured through shares of global R&D spend, shares of peer-reviewed journal publications, or shares of high-value patent applications, the building blocks of innovation are increasingly dispersed across both developed and developing economies. The effects of this diversification of innovative capacity, notably from China, means the acceleration of competition for innovation rents, notably for North American jurisdictions who have long thought themselves in the lead.
Take, for example, China. As Chinese President Xi Jinping noted in March 4, 2013 speech, "boosting innovation-powered development (is essential) in order to make China an economic heavyweight." Doing so has largely focused on the country's indigenous innovation program, zizhu chuangxin, which aims to upgrade the country's knowledge infrastructure in order to reduce the country's reliance on foreign technology from 80% in 2006 to 30% by 2020.[1] Achieving this goal, and increasing the country's competitiveness across a series of knowledge sectors, is predicated primarily on massive investments in science and technology. In the country's 12th Five Year plan released in 2012, over $18 billion was allocated towards research and development in "strategic industries" defined as next-generation information technology, biotech, renewable energy, materials and advanced manufacturing.
Such investments are part and parcel of the country's increasing prominence across a series of innovation-related metrics. For example, the number of engineering PhD's in China has tripled since 2000 and the number of science-oriented researchers has grown by an average 12% per year. Chinese research in peer-reviewed journals has similarly grown by 16% per year since 1995, with the Chinese share of published articles now reaching 9%. China's share of high-value triadic patents[2] has experienced similar growth, increasing more than seven-fold between 2000 and 2007 (Fu et al 2010:4).[3]
These foundational aspects help explain the increasing competitiveness of the country's tech sector. As Jim Balsillie (former RIM co-CEO) noted at a recent INET conference in Hong Kong, Read the rest of this entry »
Filling the evidence gap – do incubators work?Posted: April 4, 2013 Filed under: Canada, Economics, Innovation, Technology Leave a comment
Our goal is to investigate the critical interrelationships between technology, innovation and long-run economic performance; and subsequently advocate for the creative use of technology, education and economic policy to enable high-performing firms and economies.
If you managed to read through the four hundred plus pages in last Thursday's Canadian Federal Budget you might have noticed that, amongst the initiatives aimed at improving Canada's innovation performance, is a $60 million investment over five years to fund "outstanding and high-potential" incubator and accelerator organizations.
The ethos of this investment is certainly laudable, aimed as it is at helping entrepreneurs refine their businesses and business skills. Through competitive selection processes and a curriculum of mentorship, training and advice, as well as the provision of early-stage funding, such centres aim to accelerate and catalyze good ideas into good businesses. And while the tech sector is most often the target for such centres, we're increasingly seeing similar setups for the service and manufacturing sectors.
Evidently, the Canadian government is far from alone in attempting to utilize these centres as key elements of an innovation and entrepreneurship strategy. Hundreds have sprung up around globe, funded by public and private sources, and organized at the national, regional and municipal level.
Yet despite this popularity, there's actually very little known about their effectiveness in creating long-term value, be it in terms of sustained employment or long-run survival. What little quantitative analysis does exist depends on data pooled together from a variety of sources, and poses some rather significant methodological challenges.
The most complete is that produced by Seed-DB -an online database of seed accelerators and their companies. This data set contains information on 156 accelerator programs world-wide. Their findings highlight that such centres have, on aggregate, created over 6600 jobs at a net per job cost of over $200,000 (USD).[1]To be sure, this likely underestimates the number of jobs created in long-run spinoffs and multipliers from successful exits, and fails to capture less quantitative metrics around skills development.
Nonetheless, it doesn't create a story of resounding success and instead mimics the per job funding costs of many traditional industrial subsidy programs.
