LEARNING HOW TO WRITE A BOOK just got a whole lot easier — as it should, since the online world is bringing together people with skills and people with a need for those skills. What a happy combo those make when the subject is writing.
Jeff Goins and I both have skills we love to share with one another. We've been doing exactly that for years now, after meeting online and then meeting in person last year when I spoke at The Tribe Writers Conference in Franklin, Tennessee. But our skill swapping did not stop there. When he went to write his most recent book – now a big bestseller – he called, and we talked all the way through the process.
Want to listen in? You can, because Jeff made our conversation on how to write a book into a four-part podcast for his Portfolio Life series.
Why should you listen, you might ask? Well, we cover everything you need, from research through editing, and onto how to choose your next writing topic. Literally, start to finish and moving on. Why? Because both Jeff and I believe in living the writing life, not merely working on one project forever and ever.
Want a writing life? Inspiration is yours for the making without even leaving your desk or car. That's the magic of podcasting. You can listen to us and get provoked and inspired, and then you can make that move you've long meant to make: You can become a writer.
Here's how. In Part 1 of this series, Jeff and I talk about how to get that writing life going, why you never have to start at page one when writing a book, a trip I took to see Mr. Hemingway's house in Cuba, and much more. I suggest you subscribe and not miss a word. And then I suggest you get to your desk.
Need more help than that? Jeff and I are always willing to offer it. His blog is a great place to start, to meet other writers and to be introduced to some great resources. And for my part? I don't just talk about writing, I promise. I am the author of four mass-market books and countless magazine and radio essays. And I offer a series of online memoir classes that, if begun now, will get you a first draft of a memoir in about 8 months. That's right. A book. Yours. In less than a year. Come see me and let's start the conversation Jeff and I had that helped get him where he wants to be in his writing life.

Stock markets around the world started September with a surge, following news of expanding manufacturing in both China and the U.S.
The U.S. Institute for Supply Management's factory index rose to 56.3 in August, from 55.5 in July, surprising economists who had forecast a drop.
The increase is good news because it shows that the sector, which has been leading growth in the U.S., continues to have momentum, even as other key drivers of the economy, principally the housing industry, are struggling.
The upbeat U.S. economic news comes just after China reported that its manufacturing continues to expand, highlighting how Asia, along with some developing nations, are carrying the bulk of this recovery.
The S&P 500 index climbed 25.47, or 2.4 per cent, to 1074.8. . The Dow Jones industrial index rose 211.54 points, or 2.1 per cent, to 10226.26. In Toronto, the S&P/TSX composite index gained 89 points to 12002.9.
Toronto stocks are feeding off the positive news out of China, led by Western Coal which jumped almost 8 per cent in morning trading. HudBay Minerals rose almost 3 per cent.
Gold stocks were getting hit, partly on speculation that some traders will shift to riskier assets to try to capitalize on any market momentum. Barrick Gold dipped nearly 3 per cent.
Gold is trading at $1,251 (U.S.) an ounce, up 70 cents. Oil is at $73.09 a barrel after jumping $1.17. The loonie gained nearly a penny against the U.S. greenback to 94.7 cents.

As much as conservatives would like Wednesday's House vote on repealing health care to be binding, it's really just symbolic. The Republicans' real legislative leverage over the bill will come during spending fights later this year, when the GOP appropriators in the House can demand funding cuts to stymie the implementation of the law.
Democrats in the Senate will object, and if the two chambers don't break the gridlock, it could even lead to a government shutdown. To push the GOP back from the brink, Democrats will cast the skirmish with Republicans not as an abstract fight over spending, but as a disagreement between the parties over providing benefits to people.
At a health care event in the basement of the Capitol on Wednesday, top Democrats laid this strategy out. "I think we have to discreetly respond, 'This is what withholding funding for this aspect of [the law] — this is what it means to you,'" said House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi."I think the things that they would attack now are things that are direct services to American people," said Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY). "They would have to start saying, well we're going to wack the spending for the donut hole, and for preventive care, and for things that are direct services to American citizens."
Some Republicans want to use the appropriations process to block the IRS from administering the mandate, and the Department of Health and Human Services from helping states set up insurance exchanges ahead of 2014.
"What are they going to cut? There's very little administrative costs being expended, I mean you could do it, but they'd find ways to shuffle money around in the department," Yarmuth said.
To illustrate the conundrum, Yarmuth pointed out that the law expands Medicaid to cover people up to 133 percent of the poverty line, and that the federal government pays for that expansion through the end of the decade.
"You're going to go in and now say to states 'you've got to provide the service now — that's in the law — but we're not paying you,'" he said.
"We'll just see how irresponsible [Republicans want to be]," Pelosi said.

As we design functions, we have to consider how they will work in the real world. There are two common considerations as we compare solutions:
Time complexity – The amount of time it will take for our solution to complete
Space complexity – The amount of memory that our solution will consume
Unfortunately, because we can't afford to test every solution in the exact conditions under which it will operate (and, let's face it, we have no idea), we have to find a way to determine complexity without actual data. This is where mathematics come to the rescue.
Big-O Notation
There are three possible ranges of complexity we could look at:
- The smallest possible situation (little-o notation)
- The largest possible situation (Omega notation)
- The average situation (Big-O notation)
Big-O notation shows us how a function scales with bigger and smaller data sets. We use the algebraic "n" to hold this number, and then we look at the function to determine how a change in "n" changes the time or space requirements. Common answers look like this:
- O(1) – The size of the data has no effect on the size or time
- O(log(n)) – The difference between larger data sets is less than that between smaller data sets (looks like a logarithmic curve)
- O(n) – changing the size increases cost linearly (consistent increase)
- O(n^2) – larger data sets increase the cost much more than smaller data sets (looks like a square curve)
- O(n^y) – Larger data sets REALLY increase the cost
That probably doesn't make a lot of sense, so let's work through a few examples.
Example 1: A for loop
Let's look at a common-sense for loop. In these cases…
int i;
int n;
for(i=0; i<n; i++)
In this case, we can easily determine the big-O notation, because we know that the for loop will execute once for every value of n. That means that the actual time cost of the for loop is x*n, where x is the time it takes to go through the for loop. The x is constant and (theoretically) much smaller than n, so we ignore it.
Thus, the big-O notation is:
Example 2: The bubble sort
Now we'll look at a sort algorithm, which we know always have a complexity between O(n*log(n)) and O(n^2) because nice mathematicians have proved it for us. This algorithm takes a set of unsorted data and returns a set of sorted data:
int i,j; int data[n]; int hold; //Go through all the data in the set for(i=0; i<n; i++) { //We're going to put the smallest value in the "i-th" position //compare against all the unsorted data for(j=i; j<n; j++) { //If we find something smaller, move it to the "smallest" place if(data[j] < data[i]) { hold = data[i]; data[i] = data[j]; data[j] = hold; } } //Now the "smallest" position has the smallest value in the set }
If we think about it, as the algorithm goes through the set, it has to go through most of the set at each stage. Mathematically, it looks like this:
n + (n-1) + (n-2) + (n-3) + … + (n – (n-1))
If we reorganize and simplify, it looks like this:
n^2 – (n)
n is much lower than n^2, so we can safely ignore it, leaving us with a Big-O notation of:
The Formula
When you need to solve for Big-O notation, you go through these steps:
- Write out your function
- Step through and figure out how many loops depend on the size of the data (n)
- Find the mathematic formula that describes just these loops
- Simplify
- Consider only the largest factor for Big-O notation
- Write a paper to convince your professor that this was really hard
- Win

Anyone who has been with us for a while probably knows that despite being a huge X-Men fan, my all-time favorite superhero is the second incarnation of the Blue Beetle, Ted Kord. I've loved the guy for years and have endured having to explain who the hell he is pretty much any time someone new finds out that I'm a huge comic nerd and asks "Who's your favorite?"
You probably are also well aware that it absolutely broke my heart when DC finally gave him a spotlight issue that made people see him as the awesome hero I always knew he was, only to put a bullet in his head at the end and replace him with a new, hip youngster with the way too overboard power set of "CAN DO EVERYTHING."
But with the most recent run of Blue Beetle, starring both Jaime Reyes AND Ted Kord, I've finally begun to move towards the possibility of accepting Jaime and even liking him. And then, in issue #8, he does this:
Okay, kid. You got me. I like you.

Investors in Linux and open-source software distributor Red Hat (RHT) should not be worried that the company is competing directly with Amazon (AMZN) in Linux now within the enterprise, not just the cloud, urges Deutsche Bank's Karl Keirstead, who reiterates a Buy rating on Red Hat, and a $150 price target. Keirstead, citing a blog post by Amazon's AWS's Jeff Barr from December 19th, in which Barr discusses "Amazon Linux 2." The important thing in the post, writes Keirstead, and the reason investors might have some concern, is that the Linux distribution is meant not just for cloud but for on-premise deployments. "The attribute that interests us most is the ability to deploy Amazon Linux on-premise on virtualized servers running VMware or Microsoft hypervisors," writes Keirstead.

Wessanen acquired UK gluten-free company, Mrs Crimble's.
A pioneer of the UK gluten-free market for more than 30 years, Mrs Crimble's, has established itself as a leading brand in the market, famous for its macaroons and broad range of other gluten-free products. Mrs Crimble's net revenue amounted to £12.7m in 2015.
The company has widespread distribution across all channels in the UK, increasing presence internationally and fits very well into Wessanen's existing portfolio of healthy and sustainable brands. Majority of sales are in healthy snacking products, a core category for Wessanen. Mrs Crimble's is expected to benefit from the growth in popularity of gluten-free products and demand from both consumers and retailers.
Commenting on the acquisition, Christophe Barnouin, CEO of Wessanen, said: "The acquisition of Mrs Crimble's is a further step in the execution of our strategy. The brand has great knowledge in gluten-free "sweet-in-between" products and a strong base in the UK. This acquisition will further strengthen our operations in the UK market and gives us an entry into a strategic growth segment."
The acquisition of Mrs Crimble's is a strong fit for Wessanen – a company that focuses on food that is good for people and for the planet. Wessanen's mission is 'Healthier food, healthier people, healthier planet' – vegetarian products account for 97% of the company's product range.

Back to This Week's Parsha | Previous Issues
Ch. 25, v.3,4: "Sheish shonim tizra .. , u'vashonoh hashviis shabbas shabbosone" - Rashi on 25:2 brings the T.K. 25:7 which says that the seventh year is for Hashem, similar to the weekly Shabbos, where it also says Shabbos shabbosone (Shmos 31:15, 35:2). It seems that the seven years of the Shmittoh cycle correspond to the seven days of the week. We find that the words "ki tov" are mentioned twice on the third day of creation. As well, on the sixth day "ki tov" is mentioned once and the expression "v'hinei tov m'ode" is also found. The MESHECH CHOCHMOH says that during the seven-year cycle we find that "maaser oni," tithing which is given to the poor, is given on the third and the sixth years. Charity is an act of "tov," kindness, corresponding to the word "tov" written twice on both the third and sixth days of creation.
Perhaps another point can be added. On the sixth day we find the expression, "tov M'ODE," exceedingly good. This might be in place since giving a tenth of one's produce on the sixth year is an exceedingly great act of kindness. Since the donour will not plant on the seventh year, he has a greater inclination to save as much as possible from the sixth year to sustain himself later. Alternatively, since there is a blessing that the sixth year will give forth produce to sustain us for three years, the tithing of the produce of the sixth year is triple the normal yearly amount, hence "tov m'ode."
Ch. 25, v. 13: "Toshuvu ish el achuzoso" - The MESHECH CHOCHMOH asks why Hashem placed Yovel and Shmitoh back to back creating a two year continuum of prohibition of almost all agricultural activities. He answers that Hashem has commanded in this verse that all fields that were an inheritance handed down from generation to generation from the times of Yehoshua which were sold, should be returned to their original owners. After the purchaser has owned the field for possibly close to five decades, he has emotionally become attached to the field, truly feeling that it will always be his. To soften the blow of having to return it gratis, Hashem has given two consecutive years during which one may have no agricultural pursuits. Thus it is not as difficult to relinquish the property during the beginning of the second year of the agricultural moratorium.
I have seen written similar reasoning for the law (gemara R.H. 8b, Rambam hilchos Shmitoh v'Yovel 10:14) that when releasing slaves in the Yovel year, the slaves are freed from work on Rosh Hashonoh and only go free ten days later on Yom Kippur after the sounding of the shofar. In the interim the responsibility to feed and house them still rests upon the master although they do not work for him. This ruling similarly softens the hardship of relinquishing a slave.
Ch. 25, v. 35,36: "Geir v'soshov ......, al tikach mei'ito neshech" - The MESHECH CHOCHMOH says that the Torah mentions a Geir here to tell us that even if one gave an interest bearing loan to a non-Jew, if that non-Jew has converted to Judaism, "al tikach mei'ito neshech," it is still forbidden to ask for interest payments.
Ch. 25, v. 49: "O hisigoh yodo v'nigol" - If a relative may redeem him, isn't it obvious that he can redeem himself? The MESHECH CHOCHMOH amswers that it is necessary to mention his redeeming himself in relation to the ruling in the words immediately after "o hisigoh yodo v'nigol." The following verse states, "V'chishav im koneihu," that he should make an accurate calculation with his purchaser, so as to not underpay. Not only does this apply when a relative redeems him, but even when he redeems himself, and feels very hardpressed to extricate himself from being a slave, he should still not take advantage of his puschaser, and should make sure to pay his full redemption value.
Ch. 26, v. 21: "V'im teilchu imi keri" - The gemara Shabbos 118b says that one who recites Hallel daily is considered a blasphemer. On the other hand, the gemara Brochos 4b one who recites the chapter of "T'hiloh l'Dovid" (T'hilim #145, commonly known as "Ashrei") thrice daily is assured that he has a place in the world-to-come. Is one not praiseworthy for saying Hallel daily, extolling the great open miracles that Hashem has wrought? The MESHECH CHOCHMOH explains that Hallel stresses the open miracles that Hashem wrought. We recite it only on the anniversary of special occasions. By reciting it daily we give credence to the concept that miracles are worthwhile praising daily, and that nature is relegated to a lower rung, to the level of "keri," happenstance. However, this is not so, as nature itself is also a miracle wrought by Hashem, just that our senses are dulled by its constant occurrence (See responsa Chacham Zvi #18 regarding the gematria taught by Rabbi Dovid Nieto that "Elokim = teva.") The praises in Ashrei are of Hashem acting within the rules of nature, sustaining all creatures, etc. For praising Hashem daily for His "miracles within nature" one is indeed assured that he has a place in the world-to-come.
Ch. 27, v. 4: "V'IM n'keivoh HEE v'hoyoh er'k'cho shloshim shekel" - Why does the Torah write HEE here and not HU by the male in the previous verse? This might teach us that if she is pregnant we only calculate her and not the fetus, hence HEE. Even if she later gives birth to a male, the evaluation is calculated at the time of the oath. The male she is carrying is under the age of a month, as he is not yet born. The Rabbis in the gemara Arochin 5a say that one who makes an oath to give the Mikdosh the value of a person who is under thirty days of age does not have to give anything. The word HEE is used by the woman who is between the ages of twenty and sixty years and not by any other ages, as those are the vast majority of the years in which a woman bears children. As well there could be another indication that these words teach us that a pregnant woman has the same evaluation as one who is not pregnant from the word V'IM. If we read this word vowelized with a "tzei'rei" it is read V'EIM, - and a mother. Since this is not relevant to a man the word HU is not used.
We find the word V'IM here by the woman who is between the ages of twenty and sixty years and not by the male of the same age. As well the word V'IM is used by the male over the age of sixty years and not by the female. This can be explained as follows: The gemara B.B. 119b says that a woman who marries under the age of twenty can bear children until the age of sixty. Tosfos on the gemara K'subos 23b d.h. "misoh sh'chichoh" writes that men live to an older age than woman on average because of the incidence of death during childbirth. However, women who live past their childbearing years outlive men. The word V'IM, - and if, indicates a situation that is not all that common. In relation to men between the ages of twenty and sixty years, women are less common, hence V'IM. Once above the age of sixty years, men are less common, hence "V'IM mi'ben shishim shonoh." The Meshech Chochmoh has not explained why we also find the word V'IM by the five to twenty year old male in verse 5 and by the month old to five year old male in verse six.

BT, Orange and Deutsche Telekom said on Thursday they have agreed definitive terms on a deal that will see the former UK incumbent buy 100% of the EE mobile business for £12.5 billion, paving the way for the French and German telecoms giants to exit the UK mobile market and for BT to redefine itself as a provider of converged fixed and mobile services.
BT said the consideration for EE will be payable as a combination of cash and new BT ordinary shares issued to both Deutsche Telekom and Orange…

Is it possible to update a "Review Activity" approver in an SCSM "task" via powershell?
do you mean change one that is aleady present or add a vote? both are possible, but have different steps
Thanks for the reply. First let me tell you our issue.
Prior to SP1 we had "change initiators" create a change request and update the "review activities" (that were placed there by the template they opened) and the manual activities. They would update them with the description, dates and their manager's
or another manager's name for approval.
Well, SP1 killed us! A change inititator can no longer update a "review activity".
So we are quite stuck because we need the fixes in SP1, but SP1 isn't just a set of "fixes" it
changes the functionality of the application!
So we would like to, if possible, have the change inititator open a pre-existing review activity(that came from the template) and select a task that will populate the review activity with their manager. Even if we have to hardcode the manager's
name and have one task for each manager, we can live with that.
So to answer your question, which ever is easier. We can add a vote, that may make the most sense and we would just leave the template with the review activity empty.
Thanks again for your help.

In last two years major security bugs have been found and patched which might had affected innumerous users and servers. On 28th October 2014, HD Moore, Chief Research Officer of Rapid7 shared about wget ftp symlink vulnerability in detail. This is the fourth vulnerability related to Linux server which has affected more users and servers which led to gain access not only to user's files but have root access as well.
4 Wget FTP Symlink Arbitrary Filesystem Access vulnerability publicly disclosed in October 2014. This wget ftp symlink vulnerability allows an attacker to operate any vulnerable FTP server to create files; directories and symlinks on the victim's file system. The attacker can even overwrite the contents including binary files, and can access to the entire file system with the privilege of the target running wget. This flaw can lead to remote code execution as well. It's time to upgrade to wget version 1.16 or a package that has backported the CVE-2014-4877 patch.
3 Poodle vulnerability publicly disclosed in in September 2014. Poodle stands for "Padding Oracle on Downgraded Legacy Encryption" which is a MITM attack taking advantage of security software (browser in this case) fallback to SSLv3.0, if TLS is not enabled or supported like in IE6. Currently, all the browsers support TLS protocol and almost all companies are implementing TLS for any kind of secured data transmission over the browser. Very soon every servers and browsers will completely disable SSL 3.0
2 Shellshock vulnerability publicly disclosed in September 2014 and also known as bashdoor. This bug in bash led to execute malicious commands when the commands are concatenated to the end of function definitions stored in the values of environment variables. Popular example is env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c "echo this is a test"
The time when it was announced, many machines got compromised within few hours. Botnets were used for DDos attack using shellshock vulnerability. It affected almost all servers which generally use bash commands like mail servers, cgi web servers, dhcp servers, openssh servers etc.
1 Heartbleed was publicly disclosed in April 2014 and it was one of the most dangerous vulnerability found in last few years. There was a bug in OpenSSL cryptography library, which was a widely used in the implementation of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol.
It can be exploited regardless of whether the party using a vulnerable OpenSSL instance for TLS is a server or a client. As per Wikipedia, the vulnerability is classified as a buffer over-read,a situation where software allows more data to be read than should be allowed. Heartbleed is registered in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures system as CVE-2014-0160
So, what's OpenSSL version your server is running?
It seems Linux has many such vulnerable code but Linux developers doesn't want to disclose it and take it seriously unless and until some known researchers make it public. Is it true? Can we hear what's happening inside the Linux Dev group from them?
What could be the next vulnerability? Anything related to mail or its related protocols? Any guess?

Timeless Capture Camera Concept by Brian Matanda wants us for you to slowdown and virtually smell the roses before all of us take a picture of which. Our focus is actually on tech-specs, angle shots and apps that add artificial fashion. In a way the 'subject' individuals photography looses its relevance. So let's re-focus on the artwork of photography, one more thing this camera is a combination of sand blasted aluminum and slick teak and 'strong archetypal variety to produce a timeless aesthetic.
- The product is in two parts, a camera and a viewer.
- The captured images are immediately downloaded directly to the viewer wirelessly once the camera is in close proximity.
- It is also the sole access point to the images, as the camera has no LCD display. Through the use of a touch screen interface, the user is able to view the images as and when they choose.
- With limited storage capacity, the user is encouraged to take control of the content thereby making the experience arbitrary.

French Open champion Stan Wawrinka has defeated US comeback king Donald Young 6-4 1-6 6-3 6-4 to reach the US Open quarter-finals.
The Swiss fifth seed will next face the winner of British third seed Andy Murray's match with South African 15th seed Kevin Anderson.
Wawrinka dropped his first set of the tournament on Monday but made an eighth quarter-final in his past nine Grand Slams, denying 68th-ranked Young his first trip to a Slam quarter-final.
"The set was so quick. I wasn't there mentally," Wawrinka said of his second-set letdown.
"Calmed down a little bit. I began to be more aggressive, started moving my feet better."
Young was the first player since Gilles Muller in 2008 to rally twice from two sets down in a US Open, having been 0-17 in such sets before this week, but the lefthander fell to 3-18 against top-10 opponents.
"He had the crowd. It was a tough match for sure," Wawrinka said. "It was a great atmosphere."
Wawrinka improved to 2-1 in the rivalry with Young, who upset the Swiss in a fifth-set tie-breaker at the 2011 US Open and Wawrinka beating him six weeks later at Shanghai.
Wawrinka, 30, smacked a backhand service return winner to break Young for a 2-1 edge and denied the American's only break chance of the first set with a forehand winner in the fourth game.
Young, 26, had lost the first set in every prior match, too, and he bounced back again as Wawrinka netted forehands to surrender breaks in the fourth and sixth games, smashing his racquet to the cement at one stage in frustration.
"Sometimes you don't control yourself. You need to put the pressure out," Wawrinka said. "I played really well after."
Wawrinka raced ahead 5-0 in the third set. Young battled back to 5-3 but Wawrinka then held on a stunning running backhand winner to finally take the set.
He broke Young to open the fourth set and held serve to the end, which came after two hours and nine minutes.
Swiss second seed Roger Federer, winner of a record 17 Grand Slam titles, was set to face US 13th seed John Isner in the late Monday match at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Federer, trying to become at 34 the oldest US Open champion since Ken Rosewall in 1970, has a 4-1 career edge on Isner and has won 12 consecutive US Open matches over American foes since losing to Andre Agassi in 2001.
Isner, 30, has held in 93 consecutive US Open service games since last broken by Germany's Philipp Kohlschreiber in the third round in 2013, including all 54 last year and 39 so far this year.
Murray, the 2012 US Open and 2013 Wimbledon champion, was to meet Anderson at Louis Armstrong Stadium, where Czech sixth seed Tomas Berdych and French 12th seed Richard Gasquet, both past US Open semi-finalists, were set to follow.

China has just passed regulations on online games, in which there are specific parts of games with loot boxes. Loot crates in video games such as Overwatch have just come under fire by the Chinese government. As found and translated on NeoGAF, a new law has passed that will force video game publishers to expose the numbers behind players' chances.
The law justifies this by likening Loot Crates to gambling. Publishers in China are now required to display the chances of drawing certain pieces of content, how many items will be inside the crate and the name and properties of everything that can be obtained.
2.6 …Online game publishers shall promptly publicly announce information about the name, property, content, quantity, and draw/forge probability of all virtual items and services that can be drawn/forge on the official website or a dedicated draw probability web page of the game. The information on draw probability shall be true and effective.
2.7 Online game publishers shall publicly announce the random draw results by customers on notable places of official website or in game, and keep record for government inquiry. The record must be kept for more than 90 days. When publishing the random draw results, some measures should be taken place to protect user privacy.

The dramatic view over Blackgang Chine on the South West coast of the Isle of Wight. The front of the picture shows the success of soft management in preventing further cliff collapses. In the distance the distinctly layered geology helps students understand why the cliff are retreating so quickly:
Students look at the rock structure at the discordant coastline of Freshwater Bay. This has led to a number of interesting geosocial features such as the stack seen below.
At the end of the day the students became aware that they were not alone on the beach at Monks Bay. They were lucky enough to spot one of England's 3,200 harbour seals (Phoca Vitulina) swimming just off shore. The animals can reach up to 1.9 meters in length, weigh up to 120 kg and live for 30 years.

The Everyday Prayer
Icon of the Holy Face
Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Reading of the Word of God
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
This is the Gospel of the poor,
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Luke 15,3-7
So he told them this parable: 'Which one of you with a hundred sheep, if he lost one, would fail to leave the ninety-nine in the desert and go after the missing one till he found it? And when he found it, would he not joyfully take it on his shoulders and then, when he got home, call together his friends and neighbours, saying to them, "Rejoice with me, I have found my sheep that was lost." In the same way, I tell you, there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner repenting than over ninety-nine upright people who have no need of repentance.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
The Son of Man came to serve,
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Today, the Church celebrates the Feast of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. Although a recent liturgical celebration, this feast is rooted in the very heart of Christianity. Introducing us to the profound meaning of this celebration, the preface of the Liturgy invites us to contemplate the mystery of the love of Jesus: "From the cross, in his limitless love, he gave us life, and from the wounds of his side he poured forth blood and water, symbol of the sacraments of the Church, so that all of us, drawn to the heart of the Saviour, would be able to joyfully draw from the eternal spring of salvation." The liturgy sings of Jesus' heart as the wellspring of salvation. Yes, that heart of flesh that did not spare anything, that gave all of itself until the final drop of blood in order to pull us out of the slavery of evil, that heart - Jesus' heart - continues to gush forth love, uninterrupted through the centuries. This liturgical remembrance is an invitation for us all to turn our attention to the mystery of this heart, a heart of flesh and not of stone, as our hearts often become. Jesus' public ministry began with the compassion of that heart.
Memory of Jesus crucified

Did Spidey Already Pop-Up in Daredevil on Netflix?
Found an interesting article by Briley Kenney at Overmental.com which wonders if we had a Spidey cameo in the new Netflix Daredevil series in the form of an easter egg.
The possible cameo in questions comes in Episode 12, 'The Ones We Leave Behind,' and focuses on a moment in Ben Urich's apartment. While Ben's working at his desk, we see news clips pinned on a cork board above his desk.
One of the news clips has a photo showing a familiar pair of white eyes on what might be a reddish mask. Posting below the fold for the spoiler squeamish, though it doesn't spoil anything in the Daredevil series at all.
So what do you think? Is Briley Kenney onto something? The second image below is enhanced in Photoshop to boost the brightness.
Yes? No? Either way it's neat to think about. Especially since it's in Ben Urich's office!

ROSALES - A $10-million (P450-million) corn seed processing plant was inaugurated on Tuesday in Salvacion village here to help boost the country's corn self-sufficiency goal.
Assistant Secretary Edilberto De Luna of the Department of Agriculture (DA), said the private investment processing plant in Pangasinan will help sustain the growth of the corn industry in the country.
"The increased productivity (of corn) will translate to increased income and will support the needs of allied industries," De Luna said during the inauguration ceremony.
Senator Cynthia Villar, chair of the Senate Committee on Agriculture and Food, served as the guest of honor who said that the goals of the private facility is consistent with the goals of DA to push for increased production of corn and address climate change by assuring the availability of quality corn seeds.
Villar said the project is very welcome as some 1.8 million Filipinos rely on corn for livelihood and at least 11 million are directly and indirectly employed in the corn industry.
"Filipino farmers will be the main beneficiaries as the facility will bring about inclusive growth," Villar said.
Indian National Karumanchi Prasad, chairman of Prasad Seeds which funded the processing plant, said his company envisions to make the Philippines produce more than enough hybrid seeds which can be exported to Southeast Asia.
"We envision to transform Pangasinan into becoming the seed capital of the Philippines and eventually the Philippines as the regional corn seed hub in Southeast Asia," Prasad said.
Board Member Alfonso Bince, who represented Gov. Amado Espino, Jr, said Pangasinan is "very happy" for hosting the project as the facility will benefit farmers of Pangasinan and nearby provinces.
Bince said Pangasinan has been a national awardee on quality corn seed achievement and the new development will boost the positive accomplishments for the public.
Prasad Seeds employ a drying technology that uses fuel efficiently and consumes 20 percent lesser liquefied petroleum gas compared to existing dryers. It also uses US- designed blower and burning systems that result in shorter drying time and reduced power consumption.
The corn processing facility was endorsed by DA to the Department of Trade and Industry under 'pioneering status' as the investment augurs well with the country's corn industry.
Also present during the inauguration ceremony were Indian Ambassador LD Ralte, Former Sen. Ramon Magsaysay, Jr., Board Member Ranjit Shahani, Dr. William Dar of Prasad Seeds and Mr. Desmond Tong of Syngenta. (VHA/PIA-1Pangasinan)

Hitachi Framing Nailer Review
Industry's Best Pneumatic Framing Nailers by Mallory Kramer
For many craftsmen, a pneumatic framing nailer is one of the greatest tools in the world. Making quick work of jobs that can take what feels like forever, and doing it with professional strength and precision, these nailers are an irreplaceable asset. If you're in the market for one of the best framing nailers in the pneumatic world, well, you're in luck. The following is a compiled, compacted set of reviews of the best framing nailers, and their prices, on the market today.
Hitachi's NR83A2 framing nailer is one of the most high-quality, high-performance pneumatic framers on the market today. Weighing only 7.9 lbs the tool is clearly lightweight and the tool is extremely well balanced for the most comfortable operation and maneuverability. The framer has a tool-less depth adjustment allowing craftsmen to choose their depth of drive, and with an open nose design, extracting a jammed nail is hardly a hassle. The framer also features selective actuation, a favorite feature of most users, which allow craftsmen to simply transition from single actuation to contact actuation for the greatest versatility through a variety of applications. The tool is strong, fast, and versatile, and because it's also so lightweight and well-balanced, continuous work and awkward applications are far less strenuous. Ultimately, the NR83A2 is a seriously tough framer built for durability on the jobsite and for reliability through the most heavy-duty applications. Lastly,pricing from about 0 – 0, Hitachi's framer is a bit spendy, but is worth every penny. (Note: This tool is also available as a sequential trigger gun (NR83A2S) for just about 0.)
On another hand, Porter-Cable's FR350A 3-1/2″ roundhead framing nailer is one of the more heavy-duty pneumatic framing tools on the market today. With the power to drive nails up to 3-1/2″ x 131″ into engineered lumber, the tool has intense power. The framer's compact body design contributes to its well-balance and overall smooth style while an internal piston catch mechanism ensures each shot is consistently powerful. A selectable trigger transitions modes between restrictive or contact actuation mode, and with a tool-free adjustable depth-of-drive, craftsmen have complete control over the tool's performance. The tool is simple to reload, and a nail lockout mechanism alerts you when its time to reload your tool. Keeping your materials protected during work, the framer also has a (tool-free, adjustable) exhaust and a (removable) non-marring nose tip, and also having on-tool storage, the FR350AR is endlessly convenient. Ranging in price from about 0 – 0, the framer is abrilliant tool at a certainly reasonable price.
The FR350A is also available reconditioned (FR350AR) for just about 0. As a reconditioned tool, this nailer presents a truly superior value to craftsmen and builders. For those unfamiliar with recons, they are an extremely great value that bring craftsmen the highest-performance tools at a tiny fraction of regular cost. Reconditioned tools, for some minor cosmetic or technical defect, have been returned to the manufacturer. There, they undergo a series of stringent tests and retests and restoration processes before being re-released with an "R" trailing the model number. This little "R" (and potentially hundreds of dollars) is truly the only difference between a brand new tool and a recon. The value with reconditioned tools is a no-brainer; when they are available, buy them.
Like Hitachi and Porter-Cable, Senco is known for building some of the best pneumatic tools and nailers in the industry. With well-seasoned experience and superior craftsmanship, Senco is an steadfast contender in the world of pneumatics. Pricing from about 0 – 0, their SN902XP framing nailer is a brilliant and saucy little tool with 904 in/lbs of power in a compact, 7.3 lb package. This round head framer is also built with a innovated design that requires up to fifteen-percent less air than other comparable models, and still having the power to drive 2 – 3-1/4″ (round head plastic collated) framing nails with fast efficiency, the nailer perfectly unites precision power and lightweight convenience. The nailer also drives 2″-3-1/2″ smooth shank nails and 2″-3″ ring shank nails. The tool's compact design also contributes to its ability to work in tight spaces in between studs and joists, and its overall balance and ease of operation. Additionally, the gun is easy to transition from rapid fire to sequential fire and is simple to load and unload for optimal convenience on the job. The SN902XP is ideal for a huge number of applications from framing, fencing and subfloors, to trusses and decking. It additionally has a patented TrueDrive magazine to prevent jamming and an adjustable depth of drive for unfailing precision with every shot. Like the above Porter-Cable nailer, Senco's SN902XP is also available reconditioned (if you can find it) for about 0.
In the end and whatever your needs may be, one of these nailers is certain to be an ideal framer. With big power, acute precision, and the accountability of a time-honored manufacturer, these pneumatic framing nailers are the best of the best.

Nailing Or Screwing Drywall
Nails as opposed to screws who will become the winner. While drywall very first arrived out the installers utilized everything from normal metal coil nails to galvanized roofing nails. After a brief amount of your time they began to develop main difficulties from nails coming out from the finished drywall.
Nail popping results when the nail is driven into moist lumber and since the lumber shrinks the house settles and nail can actually come out to the walls. How much the nail might actually pop out was determined by way of how much it used to be driven in to the framing studs or ceiling joists. This labored excellent but those nails were hard to generate in and may often break.
Those new nails worked excellent and experienced good holding energy and eliminated a whole lot of nail popping.
Using coil nails means driving them in with a hammer. If you omit the nail you damage the drywall. This appeared to be a large issue and was practically eliminated with the screws.
Nicely fairly quickly people began utilizing screws which experienced greater retaining energy and pretty a lot nail popping. This means much less exertions setting up and ending the drywall.
There's one issue using the screws and that is they need to be arranged perfectly. They can no longer holiday the paper surface area on the drywall but have to be set enough into the drywall to ensure that it can be finished properly. Such a lot screw weapons have an adjustable setting used to obtain just the correct depth for the screws set up within the drywall. That doesn't imply the coil nails just obtained screwed or even the screws simply got nailed.

<rant subject="dance teachers">
Why is it that almost all dance teachers are crap?
They're usually (but not always) pretty good dancers, but they all seem to think that being able to do a dance automatically qualifies them as being able to teach that dance. Not so; not even close, judging by some of the muppets I've encountered (and I've probably encountered a few dozen different dance teachers in my time).
Some lowlights, just from the last month or two:
- The salsa teacher who responded to a ten-word question with a five minute monologue on an entirely different topic, followed by "Did that answer your question?". (He looked a bit stunned when I answered "No, not really" .... and then proceeded to repeat the same monologue for another five minutes, without even asking me to repeat the question.) *plonk*
- The tango teacher whose sage advice was: "Don't do it wrong, do it right". Gee, thanks for the sophisticated analysis. *plonk*
- The tango teacher who harangued a student for ignoring her dire warnings about doing unsupervised ganchos, culminating in "You might have kicked me in the head". Normally this would be an anatomical impossibility, but maybe she was just indicating that she had her head up her arse. *plonk*
They also seem to have no awareness of the idea that different people might learn in different ways, and just teach in whatever style is comfortable for them. It's usually pretty obvious:
- Teachers who are auditory learners themselves tend to talk at the class for a large fraction of the time.
- Teachers who are visual learners themselves tend to demonstrate each move again and again, without much commentary.
- Teachers who are kinaesthetic learners themselves get the class to perform each move many times, and often try to dance with each of the students.
I think this topic is one of the reasons for the phenomenal success of Ceroc. As well as teaching a form of dance that's particularly easy for beginners to pick up, they make a big effort to ensure that the quality of the teaching is high. They rotate partners frequently, they use sound systems so everyone can hear the teacher, they hire big halls so people aren't cramped, and they make sure they cover all the bases on how to teach the moves themselves (show the move, describe the move, and make everyone do the move).
Sadly, the finest dance teacher I've encountered doesn't seem to teach in the UK any more

The itchy, watery eyes. The sneezing. The scratchy throat. It's hay fever season and that means only one thing: Finding ways to cope with fall seasonal allergies.
If you have hay fever, or fall seasonal allergies, the end of summer can mean misery. Hay fever, also known as seasonal rhinitis, is no fun. But luckily, there are things you can do to relieve suffering.
Here are four ways to cope with fall seasonal allergies, aka hay fever.
Stay inside
While this may seem cruel on a beautiful fall day, limiting your time outside may help relieve seasonal allergy symptoms. And if you can't stay inside, be sure to take a shower and change clothes to remove allergens from your skin, hair and fabrics.
See your allergist
There's no need to suffer. There are medications to try and we even offer allergy shots that can, over time, reduce symptoms. Our team of experts can help you find your allergen triggers and prescribe the proper treatment so you don't have to feel bad.
Rinse your nose and eyes
Flushing allergens out with saline nasal and eye rinses might seem extreme but this natural remedy can really make a difference. If you want to try them, there are also medicated eye and nasal rinses that can relieve symptoms as well.
Keep an allergen free home
By keeping your house clean and clutter free, you can reduce your allergy symptoms. Vacuum daily and change your bedding often. Clean and replace filters. Dust and mop. If you have pets, make sure they get regular baths too.
Delegate outdoor chores
If you have seasonal allergies, it might be best to delegate outdoor chores like mowing, weeding and leaf removal. If you can't get out of these chores, wear a mask over your nose and mouth. It might seem extreme, but it will help.
Midwest Allergy
Our medical experts at Midwest Allergy don't want you to be miserable with seasonal allergies this fall. Call us to schedule an appointment today!
