I'm ba-ack! Did you miss me?
(Was that tumbleweed?)
We're home after a great week up in Yorkshire first in the lovely city of York with
babysitters parents*, then in the wilds of West Yorkshire for a weekend of great friends, lovely walks and outings, the traditional fiercely competitive session of the name game, and of course great food. I made roast beef and Yorkshire pudding for my contribution and some day I'll blog about that, but for now I'd like to share a recipe I've been working on and LOVING for a few weeks.
The best granary bread, ever. At least, I think so.
Of course I can't claim this recipe as my own – it's bread! Staff of life and all that. But this version is considerably adapted from one I have written down from who knows where. Delia, maybe? It yields a satisfyingly chewy, nutty, crusty loaf that tastes perfect simply buttered and sublime topped with pickle and molten, bubbling Cheddar. Or wobbly scrambled egg. Or goat's cheese and a sprinkling of chives. You get the picture – it's not a sandwich loaf as such, but makes a brilliant base for whatever you care to top it with.
Makes one large loaf, enough for maybe 15 thick slices? 20?
500ml warm water
1 tsp dried, active yeast
1 tbsp olive oil
700g granary flour, plus extra
50g jumbo porridge oats, plus extra
50g mixed sunflower, pumpkin and linseeds
1 tsp salt
Place the water in a large bowl with the yeast and olive oil, stir to combine and leave in a warm place, covered with a tea towel (obviously a clean one, though nobody's going to come around and inspect – don't you hate it when a recipe specifies a 'clean' such-and-such? What am I, some kind of slob?) for 20 minutes, or until the surface looks creamy and uneven. Meanwhile weigh out and combine the dry ingredients, then add to the yeast mixture and work with your hands to get everything mixed up. You may need a little more flour; you're aiming for a workable, not-too-sticky dough. Turn it out onto a floured surface and knead until it's evenly textured and elastic. Try to give it 10 minutes or so – but at least do it until you have to go and resolve a dispute, answer the door, or get the kids from school. At this point put it back in the bowl and leave in a warm place covered with a tea towel, or some cling film, until roughly doubled in size – say, an hour and a half, depending on how warm the room is. (Why do I seem to develop instant amnesia around bread dough and never remember what size it was when I first put it in the bowl? Doesn't seem to matter, though.)
Take the dough out of the bowl and knead it again, briefly, on a floured surface. Then shape – rolling in oats, if you like – and place in a large loaf tin that you have greased and lightly floured.
Leave to rise, covered, for another hour before baking in a hot – 220C – oven for 35-40 minutes, or until it sounds hollow when you rap it on the underside. Cool on a wire rack for as long as you can before cutting off a crust, slathering with butter and devouring.
Family-friendliness rating: This is probably a teensy-bit hearty and seeded for my guys. A little less granular and they'd go for it… But I like it like this!
Cleanup rating: Not too bad. This is a slow, steady activity. Good for when you're waiting in for the gas man.
Can you freeze it? Yes. I generally enjoy it fresh for a couple of days then as the week goes on I slice it, double bag it and chip off slices for toasting as I need them.
*I'm being glib for 'humorous' effect... of course we also had a brilliant time with my folks who are fantastic hosts, great company and... yes, enthusiastic babysitters.

"Από ό, τι γνωρίζουμε για το πεμφίγος vulgaris, είστε σε ύφεση."
Απλά κοίταξα τον γιατρό με δυσπιστία. Νομίζω ότι στην πραγματικότητα είπα: "Με γελάτε, σωστά;" Μάλλον δεν είναι η καλύτερη απάντηση. Αλλά χαμογέλασε, όπως και οι άλλοι δύο γιατροί στην αίθουσα, και είπε: "Όχι, δεν γελάω".
Μου πήρε μέχρι να φύγω από το ραντεβού, μπήκα στο αυτοκίνητό μου και μου κόλλησε τον προφυλακτήρα-προφυλακτήρα στην κυκλοφορία της Βοστώνης για να συνειδητοποιήσω ότι το είχα κάνει. Είχα γλείψει αυτή την ύπουλη ασθένεια - καλά, όπως γλείφεται όπως μια αυτοάνοση ασθένεια μπορεί να πάρει. Όποιος έχει πολεμήσει κάποιον, γνωρίζει ότι υπάρχει πάντα η πιθανότητα να ξανακάνει το άσχημο κεφάλι του - "δεν είναι θεραπεύσιμο, απλά θεραπεύσιμο", είναι η αποχή που όλοι ακούμε πάρα πολύ συχνά.
But for me, the word "remission" was just as good. Medically, according to my dermatologist Dr. Arturo Saavedra-Lauzon, who practices at Brigham and Women's Hospital, remission in pemphigus vulgaris means three things: There is no clinical evidence of active disease or true acantholysis, a breakdown of the cell layer of the epidermis; my B cells, which had been taken to zero through a 12-treatment course of Rituxan®, had recovered to normal in the absence of the disease; and no IGG antibody is noted on my indirect immunoflorescence tests.
Ironically, it had been six years almost to the date since I had first noticed something going horribly wrong with my immune system. In early 2003, after what seemed like the longest five months of my life, my mother passed away. At the time, I was an editor for a computer magazine, zig-zagging across the country developing and leading one-day tech seminars. Some weeks, I'd fly to California and make my way back East, stopping to do classes in three different cities in three days. It was a grueling schedule, made even more hectic as I tried to spend as much time with my mother in a Pennsylvania hospital as possible.
I continued that pace through the summer. Then in the fall, I decided to take a break and go to London with some friends. However, it ended up being my mental and physical breaking point. On the flight home, I noticed red rimming around my eyes. I called my internist when I got home and he told me I must have gotten "pink eye" or some other virus during my trip. Within days, my eyes were no longer just rimmed with red, they were downright bloody-looking and, what I now know were blisters and lesions, had started to appear in the mucosa of my nose, gums, lips and throat.
I was peppered with blisters to the point I couldn't eat. They were quickly marching their way toward my voice box, which meant I couldn't talk, so I was placed on short-term disability. Also, we still didn't know what I had and had to assume it could be contagious.
Finally we thought we were on to something, we just didn't know what, because the doctor prescribed a short course of high doses of Prednisone. Of course, once I started on the Prednisone, the lesions started to clear, so I returned to work and we all thought I had been cured. However, as I tapered off the Prednisone, the lesions reappeared and this time, they were worse, blanketing not only my internal mucosa, but also my stomach and leg. The infectious diseases doctor said he couldn't help me and sent me on my way. Again, I was sidelined from work and out of luck. Upon my sister's urging, I returned – as a last-ditch effort before the ER – to my internist.
He concluded that because it was now visible on my skin, maybe a dermatologist would be able to help and sent me to Dr. Jay Cohen at Newton-Wellesley Hospital near Boston. Luckily, Dr. Cohen had just recently seen another patient with pemphigus vulgaris – his first in years, he said. He immediately took a biopsy of my abdomen lesions and confirmed the diagnosis with Dr. Razzaque Ahmed, an expert in this field. He called Dr. Ahmed personally and asked him to see me as soon as possible. This was around Christmas of 2003. By New Year's, I was a patient with Dr. Ahmed. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Cohen for taking such a personal interest in my case and changing the trajectory of this disease's effect on me.
I tried resuming my work travel schedule but within a few months found it too demanding and I quit to become a free-lance writer. As an aside, that was probably the best thing that ever happened to me. It was a lifelong dream fulfilled. As my wise nephew said, "See, there have been some good things about battling this disease."
The last straw for me was when the entire lining of my throat sloughed off in a single piece of tissue. The pain was so excruciating that I felt defeated. I had been on IVIG for years at that point and I seemed to be in a stalled pattern that would not let me off the Prednisone. Finally, we decided that I would undergo the Rituxan® protocol that others were seeing success with. I tolerated it well in tandem with IVIG and was able to taper off the Prednisone completely. Although I was doing comparatively better, I still had blistering here and there and my gums were bright red and pulpy.
I didn't care, I felt good. I had even been working out with a personal trainer and thanks to tapering off the Prednisone and eating better, had lost the bloating caused by Prednisone. My energy level had also rebounded so I poured myself into my niece's wedding, took another niece and nephew on a cruise to Alaska; and ran a 5K – all within one summer.
I don't have to tell you what happened next. I suffered a pretty massive relapse. One that crushed me physically and mentally. Where I had almost been finished with IVIG – one more round – I suddenly was back to every four weeks after having made it to 14-week intervals and I was back on Prednisone. And the worst part, I had done it to myself. So I decided from that point on – no extra stress and only low-impact exercise. When my health insurance forced me to switch dermatologists, I took the opportunity to start doing IVIG closer to home — a 10-minute drive to a nearby hospital infusion clinic vs. a two-hour drive into Boston. That alone relieved a tremendous amount of stress.
And amazingly, over the past few months, I've had no lesions and my gums are the beautiful pink/salmon color that I had admired in others.
So that brings me to today and that wonderful word "remission." As you can see, it's been a long journey and I have every right to be skeptical of how long this will all last. To say it's out of my head now would be a lie. I still avoid most foods that I've been told could cause lesions such as acidic or sharp, pointy foods. And I do a site-check of my mouth every day to see how my gums and tongue are faring. I'm cautious not to over-exert myself and worry any time I'm around someone with a virus because I know that is a possible way to start all this back up. And to be honest, I still wake up nervous that this is going to be the day I relapse. My family is excited – but wary – about my remission. They are thrilled to see me "back to normal" but know that one bad cold or too much stress could dash it all.
I'm sure the further into remission I get, the more that panic will subside for all of us. For now, I've learned to be thankful for every day that I get that's blister-free, but I'll take what I can get.

Cree XP-E2 SMD-LED, green, with PCB (10x10mm), 120lm
The XP series with its 3.45mm x 3.45mm base belongs to the new Micro High-Power LEDs. This type of LED package is increasingly established 'as standard' at all large manufacturers. By now Cree, Nichia and Osram are producing their High-Power LED forerunners in casing that are similar to the tenth of a millimetre. The chip placed in the centre and the square shape guarantee even heat dissipation and easy processing. The slim build size is reflow-capable and thus especially designed for mechanical assembly and soldering.
Equal size, higher lumen value
With the development of the XP-E2 Cree draws on its revolutionary SC³ Technology™. The LEDs achieve greater lumen value per Watt with the existing XP-E design and thus reduce the system costs. XP-E 2 LEDs use the same footprint as XP-E LEDs, are optically compatible and enable a seamless transition to more lumens and greater efficiency.
The XP-E2 can be used for a broad palette of applications with a high lumen value, whether indoors or outdoors, in portable devices or as a replacement for customary illuminations. The XLamp XP-E2 is a coloured LED and delivers up to 88 % more luminous efficacy than comparable coloured High-Power LEDs. Thus, illuminant manufacturers can cost-effectively develop a broad spectrum of applications, such as architecture, vehicle and display lighting.
- Can carry max. current up to 100 mA
- High efficiency
- Reflow-capable / can be equipped with SMD
- Long life expectancy
- Small dimensions
- Excellent price/lumen ratio

If you are looking for a gifts for teachers at the end of the school year, then why not choose one from World Vision alternative gifts for teachers, UNICEF, Christian Aid or Oxfam?
Research has shown that teachers would prefer to receive ethical gifts, like goats, sheep and chickens, that you can give through the charities to someone in the developing world, on someone else's behalf.
The charities now produce a wide range of gifts that are just perfect for teachers such as a school desk and chairs, textbooks and school uniforms. All the gifts can be ordered quickly and easily online. A card if then sent direct to your teacher, or to you to give to your teacher, along with a personal message telling them what has been given on their behalf. Christian Aid even now do an education gift pack which includes a school uniform, school shoes and a teacher's salary.
The specific gifts for teachers include (links to the gifts for teachers after every title):
School Textbooks (World Vision and UNICEF)
Part of improving education in Senegal this gift is a real page-turner! School textbooks are a fundamental part of education. Many schools in Senegal lack basic resources like these to help pupils learn. Through UNICEF you can give 300 books at a time, which shows how far your gift for your teacher can go.
Pencils for a school (UNICEF)
If you haven't got a lot of money to buy your gift for your teacher, for just £9 you can provide a whole school with pencils. The most basic items can make such a difference to children's lives. Your gift will equip a school with 1,000 HB pencils - that's less than 1p per pencil. You will enable more children to enjoy writing and drawing.
School library book and chair (World Vision)
Part of Adet Public Library, Ethiopia and brilliant for bookworms. Provide a book and chair for a library in Adet, Ethiopia. This will help secondary school pupils learn and will be a focal point for the community to learn about HIV prevention and dangers of substance abuse.
School uniform (World Vision and Christian Aid)
Look smart and buy a school uniform. Many children in Zambia have lost their parents to AIDS, which often means they can't afford an education. Without a school uniform, they can't go to school, buying one through World Vision will improve their prospects. You can also provide a school uniform through Christian Aid and their partner the Thandanani Children's Foundation.
School Shoes (Christian Aid)
Christian Aid's partner and its partner ADL provides children affected by HIV with everything they need to continue their education – from school shoes to school fees.
Lessons for five children (World Vision)
Part of a drop in Centre for working children in Cambodia, this gift will provide lessons for five working children for one month at World Vision's drop-in centre in Battambang City, Cambodia. Children are encouraged through formal learning and play activities to progress towards attending school or vocational training.
School desk (World Vision and Oxfam)
Part of an education project in Zimbabwe you can equip classrooms in Hurungwe, by choosing a desk, so children don't need to sit on the floor. This will allow them concentrate and write much easier, which will improve their achievement at school and their overall education. You can also give a school desk and chair through Oxfam.
School dinners for three children (World Vision)
Part of Improving Education in Senegal Some children in Mbella are missing out on an education because they don't have dinner before the long walk home. Your gift will provide school dinners for three children for a year, encouraging their parents to send them to school.
Computer training (Christian Aid)
Many children dream of being a computer whiz – and kids in the developing world are no exception. If your teacher is a bit of a computer emthusiast then Christian Aid partner AMO-Congo is helping children orphaned by AIDS turn those dreams into reality. A gift like this could help children gain the skills they need to find work and put a roof over their heads.
Scholarship for a child (World Vision)
Part of a programme for orphans and vulnerable children in Ghana you can make a truly life-changing difference with this gift. Children who have lost their parents to AIDS often miss out on an education, but this scholarship will pay for school supplies and healthcare, allowing a child to go back to school.
Train a teacher (World Vision, Christian Aid and Oxfam)
In Daringbadi, India, teachers often have very large classes and there is a lack of trained teachers, resulting in low literacy levels. This gift through World Vision will help train teachers and improve their teaching, meaning children will receive a better education. You can also provide a monthly salary for a teacher through Christian Aid.
Build a Classroom (Oxfam, World Vision and Christian Aid)
If your class wants to give your teacher a really special gift, then why not build a whole classroom? This can either be UNICEF's innovative 'School-in-a-Box', which involves helping UNICEF set up a temporary school for at least 80 children during times of emergency, or one of the more permanent variety!

How our Indonesian tagging experience made this Philippine one a success
Posted on 13 May 2013
When we launched the tuna tracking map story in time for the World Tuna Day last May 2, we got a lot of feedback and congratulations. This success, however, is the result of many lessons we've learned from our first experience in Indonesia last year.When we launched the tuna tracking map story in time for the World Tuna Day last May 2, we got a lot of feedback and congratulations. It was tweeted and re-tweeted and here in the Philippines, at least three major news agencies featured the story.
It is such a beautiful feeling to get people interested in this tuna tagging exercise we're currently undertaking in the Philippines. This success, however, is the result of many lessons we've learned from our first experience in Indonesia last year.
The fishery we worked with in Indonesia was a tuna handline fishery operating on West Banda Sea, consisting of four islands known collectively as WAKATOBI—an acronym coined from joining the first syllable of the names of the four islands. Similar to the Philippines, it is a yellowfin tuna small scale fishery using simple handline. In this area, the fishers mainly belong to the Bugis tribe.
This fishery mainly uses dolphins as "guides" to locate tuna. And when dolphins are not around, fishers make use of Fish Aggregating Devices—man-made floating structures that attract schools of tuna.
Dolphin pods are usually revealed by the presence of birds (terns, gulls) that partake in the feeding frenzy generated by small open-water fish being chased by tuna, which in turn are chased by dolphins.
What a wonderful experience it is to witness this food chain in action before you!
To name a few, some of the valuable techniques learned from our tuna tagging experiences in Indonesia include: using only pop-up tags instead of internal archival tags; choosing carefully the right fish to be tagged by taking into consideration the depth, time of capture, and time it takes to bring the fish to the surface; and selecting the right kind of boat appropriate for tagging activities. We also learned that clearly explaining the purpose of the tagging activity to the fishers and to the community is critical to getting their cooperation and a better understanding of their cultural beliefs about tuna—without which fishers will not be willing to sell their tunas for such experiments.
I share this success with my colleagues from WWF-Indonesia, Sugi, Habib, Yusuf, Imam, and our friends Thomas and Tegoeh from the Research institute of Marine Fisheries, and Hardin of Wakatobi National Park Office, who have all contributed to the success of this current tagging in the Philippines. To them I owe this success.

I think it's time to add a few cities to my "rotation" and will be traveling to Boston and Philadelphia in the coming weeks.
I'm not very familiar with either city and wanted to ask your input on where to go to find great style, architecture, etc. I'm looking for neighborhoods, places, streets…the more specific you are, the better.
If something comes to mind, please email [email protected] I'm really looking forward to seeing what everyone has to say.
Also – thanks to everyone who responded to my tweet earlier this morning. It's been a lot of fun checking out the suggestions that have been coming in.

Suburban Doc linked to Slate's interesting article on ER crowding and over-use.
Kudos to the authors for having the ability to see through the conventional wisdom that it's the uninsured and the non-urgent care that drive the overcrowding crisis:
The oft-repeated claim is that if we can just find a way to get the abusers out of the E.R. waiting rooms, we'd eliminate many of the high costs associated with health care in the United States. The problem is that this story of the healthy, cavalier, uninsured E.R. abuser is largely a myth. . . . the uninsured don't even use the E.R. any more often than those with insurance do. And now, a new study shows that the increased use of the E.R. over the past decade (119 million U.S. visits in 2006, to be precise, compared with 67 million in 1996) is actually driven by more visits from insured, middle-class patients who usually get their care from a doctor's office.This fact (emphasis mine) is the most striking thing I have learned in the time I have been following the crisis in Emergency Medicine. Though one minor quibble: the situation is both better and worse than presented above. According to the CDC, the number of ED visits in 1996 was 90 million, not 67 million, so the increase is a mere 32% instead of the 67% reported above. What they did not report is that the number of hospitals with EDs has declined from about 6,000 in 1990 to 3800 in 2006. So, while the number of visits increased, the number of ED beds to accommodate those visits declined precipitously.
As a working ED doctor, I and my colleagues do tend to focus on the perceived over-use of the ED by uninsured and medicaid patients, and the CDC data does back that perception up. The uninsured are twice as likely to visit the ER, and medicaid patients are four times as likely to visit the ER as commercially insured patients (82 vs 48 vs 21 visits per year per 100 patients). But according to the recent data cited by the Slate authors, this was not the driver of the rate of increase of ED visits -- it's the insured patient who do have doctors.
So why is this demographic increasing their usage of the ER? On the physician side:
- Inadequate pay for, and numbers of, PCPs forces them to schedule their clinics fully, leaving little time for acutely ill patients in the office.
- PCPs have no financial incentive to reduce ED utilization
- Malpractice concerns are a positive incentive to direct ill patients to the ER
- Consumers' unwillingness to accept scheduling delays in obtaining tests or consultations.
- Patients' perceptions that they did have an emergency.
- Perception of quality care at the ED.
- Convenience and 24/7 availability of the ED.
Some of these trends are irreversible, I think. The ED is an efficient, albeit expensive, place for rapid and focused evaluations. This fact alone ensures that the ED will remain the resource of first resort for patients who need or want an urgent work-up. As hospitals wake up to the fact that their financial health is increasingly reliant on the performance of the ED (more than half of hospital admissions now originate there), it is predictable that more resources will be dedicated towards expending and updating EDs. In fact, in my neck of the woods, I can think of half a dozen hospitals, my own included, which recently have or soon will be undertaking major renovations to the ERs. This will, however, not solve the overcrowding problem, since these expansions are generally behind the curve and at best barely adequate to meet the future growth. The need for excess capacity to meet surges -- pandemic flu, natural disaster, etc -- is rarely if ever built into the new development.
Even if the nation's ERs all suddenly expanded to a size that they could meet current demand, that would only remove one bottle-neck. The inadequate number of hospital beds and obligate boarding of admitted patients in the ER will continue, putting strain on the capability of ED staff to care for new patients. And the continuing collapse of primary care in the US will shunt more patients in as well.
Good for my business, I guess. More volume, more docs: growth is good, right?
Well, good for me; maybe not for the nation's health. Sorry about that, guys.

Bloomington, IN (SportsNetwork.com) - The 10th-ranked Michigan Wolverines will attempt to keep their undefeated reign atop the Big Ten Conference standings alive on Sunday afternoon when they travel to Bloomington to take on the Indiana Hoosiers at Assembly Hall.
Michigan is 8-0 in the Big Ten for the first time since the 1976-77 season and has won 10 straight overall, which is its second-longest winning streak under head coach John Beilein, falling short of only its 16-game run to start last season. The Wolverines success continued on Thursday night at home, as they improved to 16-4 following a 75-66 win over Purdue.
Indiana is in the midst of a disappointing campaign by its lofty standards, as it is 13-8 overall and just 3-5 in league action. The Hoosiers have lost two of three, most recently dropping a 60-55 decision at Nebraska on Thursday, but they have defended their home floor well with wins in 11 of 13 matchups at Assembly Hall.
The Hoosiers have nearly doubled up the Wolverines in the all-time series, holding a 103-56 advantage, which includes wins in both of the matchups last season.
The Wolverines opened up a lead as large as 17 late in the second half of their most recent game and held on to defeat Purdue by nine, shooting a blistering 60.9 percent from the field in the process. Nik Stauskas led the way with 16 points, while Caris LeVert tallied a double-double with 14 points and 11 rebounds and also helped out on the defensive end of the floor with three steals and two blocks. Derrick Walton Jr. and Jordan Morgan netted 14 and 11 points, respectively.
Michigan's dominance has been well documented this season. It not only boasts an outstanding offense, shooting 49 percent from the field for 77.2 ppg, but it also holds opponents to only 43.3 percent shooting and 64.4 ppg. The team has no discernable weaknesses, boasting positive rebounding (+2.4) and turnover (+2.1) margins and great percentages from 3-point range (.395) and the foul line (.749). Stauskas (18.4 ppg) has been especially potent from long distance, draining 50 3-pointers at a 45.9 percent clip. Glenn Robinson III (13.4 ppg), LeVert (12.0 ppg) and Walton (8.6 ppg) are also integral pieces of the puzzle.
The Hoosiers put forth an outstanding first-half effort at Nebraska on Thursday, running out to a 13-point lead at intermission, but they fell flat in the second stanza and eventually lost the five-point decision thanks in part to a prolonged 27-10 run by the Cornhuskers. Indiana shot 45.5 percent from the field but were hindered by a game-high 19 turnovers. Kevin Ferrell drained 4-of-7 from beyond the arc for 14 points, while Will Sheehey and Stanford Robinson netted 12 points apiece.
Despite its modest record, IU has displayed great balanced this season, as it outshoots its opponents from the field, 44.7 percent to 40 percent, while sporting a +8.5 scoring margin. Its advantage on the glass (+11.0) ranks in the top-five nationally, although it also gives away possessions with a -2.5 turnover margin. Ferrell leads the way with 17.3 ppg with impressive showings from 3-point range (.414) and the free-throw line (.842). Noah Vonleh (11.8 ppg, 9.3 rpg) is a double-double threat each time out, and Sheehey brings 10.2 ppg to the table.

I might be pushing the whole "First Look" thing since L.B.M. 1911 has been having a pretty incredible press cycle hot off the heels of their Pitti Uomo 80 coming out party, but I'm pretty sure no one has posted official images as of yet. Below are two said images from S/S 2012 - one a campaign/lifestyle shot and the other a closer look at one of S/S 2012's signature pieces. So what is next spring and summer going to be like for L.B.M. 1911? Well, it's all about the fabric. Elegance meets innovation is probably the best way to sum it up - we're talking garment dyeing and exclusive washing techniques for those of your keeping score at home. I'm personally a big fan of L.B.M. 1911's S/S washed wools, as seen on the jacket below, and having owned one for a while I can say that the fabric is extremely versatile for this time of year. I can't wait to share the entire collection with you guys when press materials are sent out sometime in September.

boost::asio concurrency
An interesting question has been asked on stackoverflow: C++ Socket Server - Unable to saturate CPU - essentially saying that a multithreaded server using boost::asio isn't able to saturate 4 CPUs.
Looking at the boost::asio source code soon revealed that while boost::asio allows the event-loop to be run by multiple threads, only one thread will be allowed to call into the kernel's epoll syscall on Linux which vastly reduces concurrency. Note that this is not a limitation of the Linux kernel, but purely a limitation of how it is used by boost::asio (Linux would allow multiple threads calling epoll concurrently, but using it that way can be quite tricky without using excessive locking).
I think the main lesson to learn here is that while an interface might look perfectly fine when it comes to multithreading, there might be unexpected implementation limitations that could still limit concurrency.
For some more information on multithreaded edge-triggered epoll event loops on Linux, also check out my nginetd project.

PHILADELPHIA – From killing penalties to unlikely scorers, the Philadelphia Flyers are finding all kinds of ways to win at home.
Sean Couturier, Zac Rinaldo and Michael Raffl scored to lead the Flyers to their 10th straight home victory, 3-1 over the Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday night.
The surging Flyers returned home after a 5-1 trip that sent them to fourth in the Eastern Conference. Brushing off 1-7 and 4-10-1 starts to become one of the hottest teams in the NHL, they are 9-2 since Dec. 17 and have found new life under coach Craig Berube.
"I think they're confident guys right now and they believe they can win," Berube said. "They're not always going to play their best hockey, but we're squeezing wins out."
The Flyers haven't lost at home since Nov. 7 against New Jersey. They're on their longest home winning streak since they won 11 straight Oct. 27-Dec. 5, 2003. The Flyers have won all 10 in regulation, their longest streak without OT since a 14-game regulation home winning streak from February 10-April 4, 1985. They won the last 14 home games of the regular season before making a run to the Stanley Cup finals.
Steve Mason was again sensational in goal, stopping 19 shots for his 18th win.
Tomas Plekanec scored for the Canadiens.
For whatever reason, most notably the coaching change from Peter Laviolette to Berube, the Flyers are simply a different team over the last three months. The offence that failed to score more than two goals in a game though each of the first nine games has scored at least three in 11 of 12.
They've thrived on the penalty kill, also. Philadelphia was 4 for 4 on the PK against Montreal, its sixth consecutive perfect game (19 of 19) in that category.
"Penalty killing is about everybody on the ice being more committed than the power play, blocking shots, clearing pucks, goalies making big saves," Berube said.
Rinaldo even chipped in from the fourth line.
Known more scrapping his way into the lineup, and taking a seat in the penalty box, Rinaldo scored on a backhander late in the first for his first goal since Nov. 7, 2013. He has six goals in 142 career games.
"The boys have been really supportive of me," Rinaldo said. "You just got to put pucks on the net and that's what I did and it went in for me."
He stretched the lead after Couturier tipped one in for his eighth goal of the season 6:27 into the game, just the latest two-goal lead for the Flyers.
Raffl beat goalie Peter Budaj, who had 24 saves, for his third goal of the season in the second for a 3-0 lead.
"It doesn't matter if we're down a goal or up a goal, we're sticking to the system, even though we've got enough good players to score goals to come back or to play good enough defence to bring it home," Raffl said.
Flyers defenceman Andrej Meszaros had three assists.
"All the defencemen are trying to jump up into the play, whoever has the chance," he said. "That's the game now, and if you want to attack and you have the D join in, it's a big advantage to score a goal."
Plekanec scored a short-handed goal for Montreal in the second to cut it to 3-1. The Canadiens, though, could never seriously rally and took only five shots in the third. That made it easy enough for Mason to earn his latest win.
"We've got to find a way to get into our comfort level earlier and we just didn't find that right away," Montreal forward Brian Gionta said.
Notes: Flyers F Matt Read sat out with a concussion. … Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren was disappointed captain Claude Giroux failed to make the Olympic team for Canada. "I would say that I was a little bit surprised," Holmgren said. "I know how badly he wanted to be made to the team. It's a tough call, a lot of good players to be chosen from."

Tonganoxie police have identified suspect in Monday's chase, plan to request arrest warrant
May 10, 2011
Tonganoxie's police chief said Tuesday that officers have identified the suspect who ran from police Monday afternoon and plan to request warrants for the man's arrest although he had not yet been located.
Chief Jeff Brandau said the suspect, in a red Ford F-150 pickup truck, led officers on a chase south from the police department and eventually abandoned the truck in a wooded area off of Loring Road.
A Kansas Highway Patrol helicopter was used in the search, but officers failed to locate the suspect, Brandau said.
The incident began Monday afternoon when a woman came to the police station and alleged two armed men had attempted to restrain her during an earlier incident in Lawrence. The woman and a friend left Lawrence and drove to Tonganoxie, but she said the two men were following her.
The woman told officers the two men were watching the Tonganoxie police station and waiting for her to leave. Brandau said officers found one suspect watching from behind some trees, and the second suspect was parked in the F-150 down the street.
Brandau said the man behind the trees cooperated, but the pickup truck driver took off at a high rate of speed and the chase ensued. Brandau said he would request a warrant from the Leavenworth County attorney's office for the suspect.

The Illinois field office of NASS this week released the USDA's May Crop Report. Highlights of the report include:
Farmers in Northern and Eastern Illinois last week were able to plant corn where soils were dry enough.
Little progress was made across the rest of the state as farmers were sidelined waiting for saturated soils to dry.
Rains fell again late in the week, stalling any drying that had occurred. The heaviest rainfall totals fell over the south central portions of the state, where more than an inch was received. In other areas of the state, totals were generally less than an inch.
After a welcome break from this spring's rainy patterns, Fayette County farmers finally got into the fields to begin preparations for planting.
In this photo, taken Tuesday night in a field in the Shafter area, one employee of Lay Farms works up the soil while another follows immediately after with the planter.
Sixteen urban and suburban moms from the Chicago area recently toured a grain and pork farm in Sycamore as part of the Illinois Farm Families' Field Mom program. The Field Moms are on a yearlong journey to learn more about their food from the farmers who grow it.
A four-week enrollment period for participation in the Conservation Reserve Program will be held from May 20 to June 14.
During that time, farmers will apply to participate in the long-term program, which allows them to plant cover crops to protect environmentally vulnerable land.
It's the time of year for lambs to be born, and there are plenty of them on the Lynn Wollerman farm northwest of Vandalia.
Wollerman's son, Austin, said that they have more than 115 lambs from the 85 Hampshire ewes that have lambed so far.
Funds are now available from the Illinois Farm Service Agency for guaranteed conservation loans.
Those loans allow farmers to implement conservation practices on their land that will help protect natural resources.
"Guaranteed Conservation Loans are a useful alternative to help operators implement any Natural Resources Conservation Service-approved conservation practice, including waste management systems, conservation structures or water conservation measures," said Scherrie V. Giamanco, FSA state executive director.
After receiving statewide recognition last year for her volunteer work on behalf of the Fayette County Farm Bureau, Martha Cripe of Bluff City was recently honored by the national organization.
The remnants of Hurricane Isaac brought significant precipitation to the state last week.
Statewide rainfall averaged 3.18 inches, pushing topsoil moisture levels to 19 percent very short, 28 percent short, 51 percent adequate and 2 percent surplus.
This is the largest percentage of cropland in the adequate and surplus topsoil moisture categories since the middle of May.
Temperatures averaged 76.1 degrees, 3.2 above normal.
More than 165 households, representing 193 children under 18 years of age and 404 adults, received food materials last Thursday during the Central Illinois Mobile Food Pantry distribution in St. Elmo.
To date, more than 1,000 adults and 600 children have been helped through the food bank this year.

FamilySearch.org which are useful for those with Jewish families continues to grow. One of the newest is Michigan, Death Certificates, 1921-1952. As of today the collection does not include the original images, however it does have a name index to over 1.6 million records.
The amount of information included in this database should help those who had family in Michigan. The entry below for example, shows the death of Arthur Mittledorf. From the record we find that Arthur, the son of Osias Mittledorf and his wife Annie Beidner, was born in Detroit on 6 May 1926 and died there on 17 Aug 1927. For those who would like to look at the original record, the Family History Library film number (1972984) is also included.

One Piece - Chapter 689 [manga]
Welcome to the weekly manga discussion thread for One Piece.
Thread Guidelines
Hey guys, it's been a while! Now that my computer's up and running again I can catch the spoilers now (though I'm a little late this time, what with the next chapter being released and all, heh). Anyway, spoiler summary translation credit goes to Aohige:
-Chapter title is "Seemingly non-existent Island". The ministory involves Caribou arriving at a snowy island.
-The first portion of the chapter focuses on Brownbeard, who tries to warn his men about Caesar's true nature. Sadly, his efforts are in vain. Before CC is about to finish off the pirate, Luffy busts into the scene with an Elephant Gun!
-An angry Luffy asks CC what's the deal with the island. The scientist answers that it's like air: It exists, yet at the same time, it doesn't. He also tells Luffy that he doesn't know what kind of mess he's getting into by teaming up with Law. Law wants to capture him because he's the only one who knows how to produce SAD, and Doflamingo's SAD factory produces artificial Zoan devil fruits called "SMILE". Furthermore, One of the Four Emperors already has an army of SMILE users under their wing....!!!!
-CC then warns Luffy that by sabotaging their plans, he'll attract the wrath of just about ALL of the superpowers in the New World. After listening to the story, he just knocks the crap out of the scientist, and says he doesn't care, as he's done nothing BUT piss of world powers this whole time....!!!
Oh Luffy, don't ever change. Anyways, great to finally learn what the deal with that SAD stuff is. Naturally, I'm very interested in learning which of the yonkou has a Zoan army (I'm guessing Kaidou). But even if Luffy does piss off the world powers, he'll still be needing lots of powerful allies on his side, methinks....

An army of zoan types....no worries for the straw hats they could kick their asses no questions asked.
Luffy loosing it and letting his punch speak for itself is always great, good old fashioned typical Luffy!
Feel sorry for brown beard and everything tricked by Ceasar. Makes me wonder if vega punk is a good guy but just on the marines side or if he is an even more troublesome version of ceasar.

Boy, the Smile revelation is gonna make things a LOT more interesting, IMO. Just imagine if Smile users even have an Awakened form (which, BTW, I'm also hoping that Momo will have)? It really does just go to show the types of crazy forces who control the New World.....
Also, about the ministory: Apparently, the island Caribou washed up on was the same winter island that we saw Drake at before the skip. So it looks like our muddy friend is in Kaidou's territory now.....
Edit: Holy crap, it looks like Oda actually foreshadowed the Smile's appearance before the skip:

Well, it feels like we got a hint as to which Emperor Law and Luffy are planning to overthrow now. Considering the army of manmade zoan fruit users, it really doesn't seem to be either Shanks or Blackbeard's style, so probably either Kaido or Big Mum. I'm actually leaning more towards Big Mum having seen some of her soldiers on fishman island though.

Ah, I so missed the wrathful Luffy.
The entire time Caeser was talking, and Luffy was quiet, you knew what's going to happen next.
Yet flipping page after page wondering when that SHUT YOUR FACE punch was going to land.
Little does CC realize Luffy's had more than a scuffle with multiple Warlords, as well as declare war on a Yonkou already!
It felt good seeing that hard fist-print on the face of the gutter trash.

BTW, there was actually one small moment in this chapter that I really enjoyed: When Luffy walks past Brownbeard, he lightly pats his head before confronting Caesar. I just like how he showed some respect for the guy in such a silent, subtle way. Just goes to show how boss Luffy can be when he's serious(ly pissed).

Very cool chapter. The final double spread was so damn satisfying. It always feels so good to see Luffy punch the crap out of scum like Caesar.
The reveal that zoan type DFs are being mass-produced by Dolfamingo is very interesting. I'm also guessing the emperor with the zoan army is Kaidou, but I think it could also be Big Mom.

Lots and lots and lots of fun. Children are finally pacified, Shino will now take a slight back seat for a bit (I'm expecting Franky to solve that problem), and the first of the trio of bad guys is gone (bye Monet, your powers were a needless rip off and you looked stupid with your bird feet). We can now settle down to some fun fighting and hopefully some plot advancement (and find out what the hell Usopp and Brook are up to (I thought they were with Brownbeard)!).
Props to Brownie-kun for standing up for his friends and what he believes in. Casear is a douche of the highest caliber, but he is also dangerous, so good going Brownbeard for standing up...even if you are annoying and hopefully will disappear after this arc...

It's always good to see Luffy's angry punch of ownage. Also nice to finally hear what SAD's purpose is. As for the emperor with the smile zoan army, there's a good chance it's the one Law wants to topple. My guess would be Kaidou as well.

It's just like Oda to pull out a Chekov's Gun on us like this. Honestly when Doflamingo mentioned "smiles" back then I thought he was referring to the style of Jolly roger he uses. Never would've guessed it meant something like this.
I suppose this means there's going to be an incoming fuck-ton of devil fruit users appearing in the story soon enough. I'm still wondering if their properties differ from natural ones though.

If it does continue, I wonder what they'll do next (they might have to make a few changes if they do that part of the story, considering the changes they've already made).
Spoiler for Jackie:
Edit: Just out of curiosity - have there been any names given to the story arcs in V4-9 (other than the current wiki placeholders)?
Also, anything new regarding the Barbaroosa?

Just to give up hope to humanity, 'Habitable' planet discovered circling Tau Ceti star [guardian uk] [Asahi jp]
My copy of vol 9 has arrived, but still at my local Kino. Will update soon.
Some random notes. Marika did "Aerobreaking" before landing her Dinghy...in a simulation. But her predecessor, Hayama Miki from ☆π did a Pugachev Cobra in a F-18 above the runaway before landing.
Sorry for lack of updates. I found myself indulging in the books which the girl in my avatar comes from. I wish I could invite both 'I' and Marika to a trip inboard Viper and we could talk depressing things all time long.
Oh, and recent tweets from Hiro saying that for him the interesting parts of fMiniPai starts from vol 4. But this doesn't mean the manga is confirmed to be resumed.
I thought I have become Spiderman, but then I realized I don't have a dead girlfriend.

According to Sasamoto-sensei's tweet, because of the size of the orbit of the newly found planet, in MiniPi universe it would be equivalent to Ishi no Shirahoshi (2nd planet). There are Robot Plants to develop the metal bedrock surface.
Hmm? Did Captain Suzuka got the Captaincy as Christmas present or something?
I don't celebrate Christmas, but here a toast to End of War for every wars, past and present, fictional or real, and especially ones that ended on end of the year/New Year. War is Over, if you want it♪

I was hoping for a surprise when I clicked Asahi NicoSeiga, but alas, the manga wasn't there
Spoiler for Odette II:
I chuckled a bit when Kenjo asked the girls their opinion about what Jacky said to them regarding about the switching side from the Rebel Army, selling the weapon etc.
Gruelle, Rin, and Chiaki: "It's a trap, right", "I think it is a trap", "It is obviously a trap".
Spoiler for Come See The Dancing Stars:
Recently I re-watched The Wrath of Khan, The Seach of Spook, and Star Trek 2009, and I'm emotionally compromised when Spook said his famous words, "I have been and always shall be your friend". I wonder when Chiaki is going to say that .
You could say that Methuselah in MiniPi is the equivalent of Vulcan. Sadly, Chiaki doesn't have pointy ears (BBA-tachi have them ), and is is not clear if Nora is her mother. If she is, then Chiaki should be half-Methuselah.....wait how does that even work?
In recent Sensei's tweet, he said he would like to work faster this year. Other good news is that HoshiPi reprint vol 2 and vol 3 are scheduled for February and March releases.

Something like tall, thin humans with pointy ears living in low-G environments, or short and stout dwarves (Squats) living on the opposite type of worlds.
So technically a Meth is still human, just different, and so a half-Meth is possible.

In other news, I think there is going to be anime about a girl and a male robot named HAL coming, soon?
For Rin, she cares more about her computer, HAL-bou, than Odette II. She said she has never being apart for more than 30 meters since she obtained that 'boy'. This happened when Marika and her Club President chased the Odette II in vol 4.
...Speaking of which, in Yousei Sakusen vol 1, there is a scene when the main characters went out to the moon surface, and one of them said "It's like we're in 2001", and the most hardworking character replied "No the year is not 2001" IIRC

Speaking about drugs, in vol 5, when the crews of Odette II were going to take their rest, Captain Ririka warned them and said "No drugs, No drinks". Guess she knew that the Yacht Club members had a party with alcohol in vol 3.
Spoiler for Jacky:
Ah, speaking about Noel, there is an Esper Pilot from Yousei Sakusen named Noel who fended off alien attack on the Moon before chasing the main characters to the Earth. And if Tanigawa Nagaru regarded Yousei Sakusen as the forefather of LN, can it be safe to say it was the first LN to use the "neurosis" word? (v1 pg 105 3rd printing)

Jacky himself has been described by Marika to possess hacking skill the level of a Wizard when Noel asked the Captain to describe the Witch's bounty. He managed to hack one of the pirates ship under Kenjo without leaving any traces. When he first came to Hakuou, he unlocked the club room door (Marika was alone, because it was her habit to come early and locks the door), hacked into the school security camera and replaced the images with still scenes so no one could detect his face, and hacked into the Tax Bureau and placed himself as one of the employee when Rin tried to confirm his identity after he left the school.
IIRC, some readers don't like him because he is kinda like a "cheat character" with nanomachines and stuffs he can do.
I think there are also people who dislike Gruelle because she's genetically superior. She has this trait of know-it-all that is disturbing even for the pirates crews. When Jacky presented his Wall of Tax scroll paper to be read by Marika and the princess, she managed to finish them all and concluded that the red head was a fake. Marika said it took her all to even read the paper.
Moreover, she can use her financial power to help Marika, and Marika tried to refuse it several times. When Rin asked Marika the minimum number of crews needed to sail out Odette II (which is supposed to be 4), they ended up bringing all the club members and Gruelle used her credit card to purchase the earliest shuttle tickets to the Relay Station (Gruelle said buying in bulk gave her discount )
Oh, she also made Marika wears that red suit again when they went and meet the captain of Princess Apricot to ask his and his ship for help to bring out the Odette II.

Mylan Inc. was building up a head of steam going into the close Thursday, gaining nearly 10% after offering a rosy 2014 forecast that was well ahead of analyst predictions and indicating it could be in the market to acquire other companies.
The drug maker said it sees adjusted earnings of $3.25 to $3.60 a share. Analysts polled by FactSet expected earnings of $2.81, on average, and only the most optimistic views had Mylan's earnings falling within the company's range.
Shares were up $4.81 to $56.24 in recent trades. Chief Executive Heather Bresch said in a press release the company had several product approvals delayed during 2013.
"These delays will add to the many opportunities we have ahead in 2014, which combined with our continued commitment to strong execution, gives us great confidence in our expectations of 16% growth in revenues and 19% growth in adjusted diluted [earnings-per-share] for the year," Bresch said. "Finally, in addition to executing on our existing business drivers in 2014, we currently expect to be in a position to execute on another substantial transaction this year."
Chief Financial Officer John Sheehan said the company hopes to nearly double its adjusted earnings by 2018 and reach the $6 mark by "identifying additional opportunities for growth."
The company said net income was $180.23 million, or 45 cents a share, compared with $161.96 million, or 39 cents a share, for the same period a year ago. Adjusted earnings of 78 cents a share were three cents ahead of FactSet forecasts.
Sales were $1.81 billion against last year's $1.72 billion and ahead of the predicted $1.79 billion.

Byte Size Science took a tour inside the DayGlo Pigment Plant to show how DayGlo makes all of its fluorescent colors. It's pretty fascinating—the color becomes taffy textured and then solidified by cooling and then ground up to be like sand and then ground up again to be between 3-5 microns in diamater. And it's so damn colorful. Like Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory without the chocolate.
If you're into getting a behind the scenes look of giant fantasy factories and/or appreciate the beauty of tubes, metal, vats, pipes, valves and other industrial things, you should see how the famous fluorescent paint that lights stuff up is made. This is how traffic cones, toys, signs and everything is made. [YouTube]

Psycopg 2.4.2 released
Posted by Daniele Varrazzo
on June 12, 2011
Tagged as news, release
Psycopg 2.4.2 has been released: it brings a few small but interesting new features, and a lot of bug fixes.
Transaction control has been overhauled: a new connection method set_session() allows setting all the session properties affecting the transactions behaviour: the isolation level but it can also be used to have auto-commit, read-only, and deferrable transactions. You can use for example:
conn.set_session('read committed')
conn.set_session(readonly=True, autocommit=True)
readonly=True, deferrable=True)
There is also a welcome improvement for all the users thinking that
was an excessively verbose syntax: a new read/write property allows to set
conn.autocommit = True
a much handier syntax for an often used connection property.
The improvements to the transactions control are not only at interface level: Psycopg doesn't require any more setup queries when connecting to a database. A sequence of statements:
import psycopg2
conn = psycopg2.connect('')
curs = conn.cursor()
curs.execute('SELECT 1')
curs.execute('SELECT 2')
in older versions of the library would have resulted in the following commands sent to the backend:
SHOW default_transaction_isolation SET DATESTYLE TO 'ISO' SHOW client_encoding BEGIN; SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL READ COMMITTED SELECT 1 SELECT 2 COMMIT
In Psycopg 2.4.2 the only commands sent are instead the essential:
with the BEGIN/COMMIT obviously omitted in autocommit mode (the datestyle and encoding statements were already dropped in 2.3).
The new release also brings a lot of bug fixes, so we encourage updating soon, particularly if you use Psycopg in multithread programs:
- Fixed bug with multithread code potentially causing loss of sync with the server communication or lock of the client (ticket #55).
- Don't fail import if mx.DateTime module can't be found, even if its support was built (ticket #53): a fix for the "ghost mx.DateTime" issue reported in virtualenv.
- Fixed escape for negative numbers prefixed by minus operator (ticket #57).
- Fixed GC race condition during copy in multithread programs, potentially resulting in refcount errors. Fixed by Dave Malcolm (ticket #58, Red Hat Bug 711095).
- Trying to execute concurrent operations on the same connection through concurrent green thread results in an error instead of a deadlock.
- Fixed detection of pg_config on Windows. Report and fix, plus some long needed setup.py cleanup by Steve Lacy: thanks!

Thanks for the virtualenv bug fix! I've been waiting for this one.

Hi! Any idea when this will make it to PyPi? Thanks. :)

Fixed, thanks for pointing out.

How come we need to install pg_config, if the only way I will be using the driver is through a remote connection? Is there a way to run setup.py without needing pg_config?

You guys made a mistake about the download page http://www.stickpeople.com/projects/python/win-psycopg/
I load the msi (For Python 2.6 amd64) (64bit Windows) but it can't be used in my 64bit win7 However when I download the msi (2.4.2 (For Python 2.6 -32bit) I success install for python-django It wastes my hours !!

@zouzhan: you should address your suggestion to Jason, as he maintains personally the Windows version of Psycopg. However it looks like you have a 32 bit Python installed on your machine, but I could be wrong.
Aug. 2, 2011, 8:04 p.m.
My python is 64bit(win7 64bit) I've load the 64bit Psycopg from the linkurl, infact is a 32bit installer. When i load the 32bit Psycopg, I install success. I mean maybe Jason set the wrong url for the Psycopg of 32/64bit, just exchange then .
By the by,the msi installer(from you http://initd.org/psycopg) is better than the tar package( from python.org). Sorry , my English is poor

"Bob's notes" are reports from CFCA President Bob Hentzen, who regularly accompanies mission awareness trip participants. You can see Bob's full update on his Facebook page.
It's a joy to send you this message of solidarity and love from our CFCA sponsored friends and their families in Honduras.
Since its humble beginning in 1982, CFCA-Honduras has grown to include 16,088 children and 1,698 aging friends; all in four projects and 60 subprojects.†Currently, 1,955 individuals are on our waiting list in Honduras.
You can imagine how I feel meeting many of the same families who participated in Walk2gether, CFCAís 8,000 mile solidarity walk through 12 countries.
I am finding the people here are still very much in the strong community spirit of Walk2gether. Everywhere we traveled during the walk, a number of sponsored friends and their families gathered to celebrate the CFCA community.
I'm hearing quite a few original songs about Walk2gether and about the current programs of CFCA. With a strong vocal tradition, songs and poetry can be a great learning tool.
The sponsored friends and their families respond to the basic truths of CFCA.
In the cities and mountain villages of Honduras, CFCA's impact can be measured by hope and motivation.
"You will be changed as never before." ó Father Tony Lee, CFCA sponsor
"You are my sunshine." ó CFCA sponsors
"Gracias, CFCA, for unconditional love." ó Mother of a CFCA sponsored child
(Photo credits in this report go with gratitude to the CFCA-Ocotepeque staff in Honduras.)
Final note:
Cristina and I will be attending the national CFCA staff formation encuentro (gathering) in Cali, Colombia, and from there, we will travel directly to the mission awareness trip in Bolivia. Please know of our love and prayers.

Boulder police arrested a 19-year-old University of Colorado student Wednesday after he told police he killed a raccoon with a bat so he "could take its hide."
According to a police report, officers were called to a home in the 2800 block of Springdale Lane around 5:25 p.m. on a report of a person killing raccoons.
When officers arrived, they found a baseball bat covered in blood on the front porch of the house, along with a raccoon skin covered in salt. The porch was covered in what appeared to be dried blood, according to the report.
Police then spoke to Jace Robert Griffiths, who said he lived at the house and killed the raccoon, according to the report. In a written statement, Griffiths said the raccoon came out of a Dumpster and was walking toward him and a friend.
"We could have walked away, but I decided to go up and kill it so that I could take its hide," Griffiths wrote in the statement. "I immediately regretted hitting it, but, rather than throwing it out, I took the hide and threw the remains in the bottom Dumpster."
Griffiths also told officers he found a dead raccoon in the same spot in August and took that raccoon's hide as well. Griffiths did not say in the statement what he planned to do with the raccoon hides.
Griffiths was arrested on suspicion of aggravated animal cruelty and later released on bond from the Boulder County Jail.
He did not return a call for comment Thursday.
CU's online directory lists Griffiths as a finance major.
