We want to build an arts coalition movement for people of color, native & indigenous communities. Don't you?
"I define poetry as celebration and confrontation. When we witness something, are we responsible for what we witness? That's an on-going existential question. Perhaps we are and perhaps there's a kind of daring, a kind of necessary energetic questioning. Because often I say it's not what we know, it's what we can risk discovering." - Yusef Komunyakaa
we can't do this alone. None of us can.
Some use the phrase "embarrassment of riches" to describe the Twin Cities literary & arts scene. Given how rich & diverse our POCI communities are––what's embarrassing is how our voices are just (if at all) are being recognized & heard. POCI artists, activists & administrators need more amplification & celebration rather than humility. No more being relegated to the margins, silenced between hyphens. No more tokenism: "So, are we done with diversity training? Can we go back to our regular (white) programming? We've always had at least one writer of color at our readings since 2016!"
The Arts are still controlled & dictated by white institutions. In order for us to affect real change & shift conversations toward complete equity, we need to come together to dismantle their hold on what & how our stories are being told. We also need to call out our white allies & hold them accountable. How are they using their privilege? There are a plethora of POCI-led, operated arts organizations in Minnesota, but we remain fractured––mostly due to lack of funds & time. Most of us work for free while juggling families, full-time day jobs, etc. We are always climbing uphill, moving against the tide. That said, so many of us are often doing thankless work without adequate compensation. Critical/vital conversations about how to combat white supremacy are being had, but in our own bubbles. There are powerful white entities like our government trying to destroy us. We need to band together to fight/resist/persist/thrive in these troubling times. We want to open up more dialogue, disrupt the status quo & fuck some shit up!
If you feel the same way, please shoot us a message. Let's do this thing!

Bringing Psychology into the Mathematics Classroom (Guest Post: Tom Mitchell)/
(by Tom Mitchell, Lecturer in Psychology at Edge Hill University)
It was wonderful to be back in a classroom setting when visiting Caddington Village School, with many keen students eager to show off their maths knowledge to a new face. Having seen some results of the Number.fy app performance, it was refreshing to be shown how it was being applied in practice, with the level of student engagement in using the app fantastic. An important factor in learning is the amount and type of feedback each child receives in their times-table or number bond sessions and this has been well considered; a clear use of colour to denote correct and incorrect responses, a comparison between actual and correct response for each question, and a total time taken. All this information enables students to track their own progress with mental maths... I was even challenged to complete my own twenty random questions!
My interest in the app developed from the media coverage on the BBC and various other news outlets, and as a Psychologist who researches cognitive development in numerical processing I was intrigued by the type of data that was being shown: a clear increase in the amount of information these students were processing, and a clear difference in what they were expected to achieve at that level, and where students were demonstrating success. I was enthused on reading the first published academic article relating to this project, and so picked up the phone to chat to Mike about where he saw the project progressing and what he wanted from the App. Therefore I am thrilled to be on board with this project as an independent researcher able to assess the merits of using this type of technology in education.
There are many ideas myself and the Caddington headteacher, Sue Teague (who has a strong drive for meaningful research in her School to inform educational outcomes and pupil progress), are considering, the first of which is to conduct a side-by-side research project with two schools, to look at how the app is developing numerical cognition in early number processes in primary year 2. A second strand to the project will be to look at the longitudinal outcomes of using this technology in the classroom and see whether this impacts positively upon KS1 and KS2 assessments, which will be monitored over a number of academic years. This project work will be presented at a British Academy Workshop at the end of September, with my next post reflecting on feedback received there to inform the development of this research.
I look forward to being part of this journey, but will need to improve my scores next time (19/20...1m34s).

The champagne has gone flat, the kitchen is no longer stocked with Christmas goodies and the Nation is gripped with a sudden desire to head to the gym. It can only mean one thing, the dawn of a New Year. What's top of your list of New Year resolutions for 2017? Do more exercise? Eat better? Spend more time with your family?
Sadly many of us will try to achieve everything in just one month which, the majority of the time, leads us to become overwhelmed with the pressure to reach our goals. That's where we come in! This January, we're asking you to make one change to your day-to-day routine. Whether it's adding a small daily exercise, trying out a new juice recipe or simply updating your style. Join us as we keep you on the right track with a 4 week journey filled with motivation, nutritional advice and workout tips!
Keep your eyes peeled for little tips and tricks to making 2017 your best year yet. Now, let's get started! Here's 3 small changes you should be making in the New Year…
- Declutter
Ever heard of the phrase "messy kitchen, messy mind?" Clearing cupboards helps give you a sense of control and ownership over your own space. Digging out those long-lost treasures can help you enjoy objects that you'd forgotten about.
- Slow Down
With so many commitments and engagements, it can be hard to find time to just be still. Maintain a sense of control over your life by dedicating an evening to doing nothing. Run a bath, watch your favourite film and pop on a face mask- we've got all you'll need right here!
- Unplug
Studies have shown that staring at a screen just before bedtime can lead to disruptive sleep. Make sure you give your body the best chance at a full night slumber by reducing screen time prior to sleep. Pop your phone away, stay clear of the tablet and instead delve into an engaging book!

As some of you may know, I have worked in food service for over four and a half years now. It may not seem as a long time, and it probably isn't when you are talking of other types of work. But, as anyone who has worked behind a counter serving the public knows, it doesn't take long to become both jaded to the appalling levels of rudeness and entitlement displayed for your hapless benefit, and endlessly amazed at the new levels of idiocy and privilege every other day of work brings.
To whit, shenanigans from this past weekend.
First, a customer collars me as I do a round of the dining room.
Now, lest you be misled by that statement, this is not a rare occurrence by any means. Whenever I'm the one managerial-type person on sight, I'm often called upon by sitting down customers to be witness to all manner of housekeeping-type outrages:
- "The table we want to use has two crumbs and a glass-ring mark!" (never mind that there are four other perfectly clean tables with the same number of seats around that one dirty one)
- "One of the creamer containers is not full!" (never mind that we are closing in ten minutes and no one has bought coffee or otherwise used any creamer since four in the afternoon)
- "Why is (item) no longer on the menu? That was my favorite item and I want you to make it for me, right now!" (never mind that we do not carry the ingredients to make it, for you or anyone else, and haven't for the past year)
- "I ordered something I don't like, so I want you to replace it with something else I know I like, and give me a refund on top." (never mind that the cashier asked you–twice–if you were sure you wanted to order it, since you did say you had never had it before, and never mind that you were offered a sample so you could better decide whether you wanted it or not)
The conversation–if I may be so generous as to call it that–broke records on both the entitlement and the stupidity fronts.
The setup for the conversation is this: I work for a franchise, and about half a year ago, my current location was remodeled. Nothing major–we were even open as it happened, which was…interesting is the mild form of the word that comes to mind.
Also, as part of my regular duties, I'm supposed to check often that nothing awful is going on on the premises, such as
- vomit near the side door ("can you find someone to clean this for me?" because I'm in a hurry and can't be bothered to clean up the mess my five year old just made in a public place),
- an elderly lady stuck in the men's handicapped stall ("can you crawl under the door to get her out?", because even though I know she gets confused and wanders off, I was too busy on my phone to mind where she was and what she was doing),
- a cellphone accidentally dropped into the trash right before another customer tossed his full soda cup into it ("can you look through the trash for that for me?" because even though it was I who threw it in the trash, I'm too important to get my hands dirty, but these are the type of things you are paid to do),
and the like.
So when, in the middle of the dinner rush, this gentleman stops me with a mild enough, "excuse me, may I call your attention to something over here?" I'm expecting something along the lines of any (or even several in combination) of the different things I described above.
Instead, what I got was an almost fifteen minutes monologue–because I was not allowed to put in one word edgewise–on how the remodel cost the location money, how we should remodel again to better advertise our product and increase our revenue, on how this gentleman's expertise is in marketing and therefore I should ensure to get word to the powers that be so that such a remodel takes place sooner than soonest, how the corporation should heed his vast expertise on all matters marketing, advertising, traffic flow, point of purchase appeal, and so on and so forth, ad nauseam.
The entire time, as I'm biting my tongue and trying not to roll my eyes, the same thought is running through my head in a loop: are you fucking kidding me?
Deities forgive me, sir, but if you knew anything about marketing, you would probably know that franchisees never do anything without the approval–and more likely the prompting–of the corporation who owns whatever restaurant/gas station/fast food joint/whatever it is. You would also know that, however asinine said corporation's decisions seem to you, they are as final as death. No manager–let alone someone as low in the totem pole as the likes of me–has any sway over any company policies. By the time these decisions come down to the individual locations, a team of people up there in corporate land have spent months–if not years–mulling over the logistics, the consequences, the projected earnings, and the like.
Not, mind you, that some of the decisions made by the corporate offices are not the epitome of moronic (to give you one example I know of, a promotion for a new product went all the way to buying the ingredients and getting all the promotional items to all the locations in the country, and two days before it went live, it was called of).
The second incident went on quite a bit longer.
See, a group of people grabbed five four top tables and arranged them in a circle so that the eight or nine of them could sit around them. All the extra chairs? Oh, they shoved them to the side. People needing to walk to the restrooms? Oh, they could walk around the other side of the restaurant, right? Bags and laptop cases and shit laying on the floor about two feet around that makeshift round table? Oh, it's not as if people are at risk of tripping over them, right?
What did this rather large group of people, who took up a quarter of the available space and made half the seats in that area redundant, consume? Sodas and coffee.
And how long did they sit there? Well, they were there over four hours before closing, and stayed for a full hour after we closed–I actually had to go there and tell them that we couldn't finish closing with them sitting there.
At least, though, they didn't ask me if they could stay after the staff left–which, I kid you not, a customer at another location had the gall to ask me one night. Because, see, he was working on something important on his computer and couldn't stop for something as menial as us peons needing to leave.
And what about the group of teens who walked in through the side door as the manager was locking the front door, asked for plastic ware and glass cups at the counter, grabbed napkins and condiments from the counter…then proceeded to unwrap food from a different chain on the table, and sit there making a mess all around the table for over twenty minutes?
Or the family who came in after closing, as a customer was leaving–dude, why do you hold the door open for people to come in, when you know that place is closed and has been for twenty minutes?–and then loudly bitched at me because a) we were closed, b) there was no food, c) there were no drinks, d) we were closed, and e) I didn't even try to accommodate them because–did I mention this?–we. were. closed.

Development Tools for the EcoBT
Programming the EcoBT can be done using either the official TI-IAR setup or with EPL's own SDCC setup. The former gives you complete access to the MCU's functionality, whereas the latter uses all open-source tools but has more restrictions.
1. TI-IAR Setup
Programming the EcoBT can be done using the same setup as TI's evaluation kit in conjunction with IAR. The requirements are
|Package or Accessory
|CC Debugger
|programming the firmware and debugger
|TI's BLE Stack and software
|supporting BLE protocol (master, slave, central, peripheral)
|IAR Embedded Workbench
(for Windows)
|compiling and linking user code, OSAL, and BLE stack to form the firmware image
|BTools (for Windows),
LightBlue (for iOS), or other BLE Clients
|for testing reading or writing of characteristic values
The document "Texas Instruments CC2540/41 Bluetooth Low Energy Software Developer's Guide" provides a good, detailed explanation on the BLE stack, OSAL overview, workimg with IAR, and sample projects. We recommend that you read it even if you use our SDCC-CBL setup.
2. SDCC-CBL Setup
Programming the EcoBT can also be done using the open-source SDCC in conjunction with our own CBL (compiler binding layer) and programming tools in Python. Developers can write code similar to the IAR source code with some simple modifications. What you need:
|Package or Accessory
|Unix-like environment
|(e.g., Cygwin for Windows) to run Gnu make
|BLE USB dongle (e.g., EcoBT Super)
|for connecting a host computer to target node via BLE. Windows, Win8; no need for driver on Mac or Linux
|compiling C to 8051 machine code
|Python 2.7.x with
pyserial package
|environment for programming tool
|CBL library
|for translating calling conventions between IAR and SDCC
|runflash.py script
|(part of the zip file above), under sdcc subdirectory
for wirelessly programming the node
|compilation and linking rules for building the image
|BTools (for Windows), LightBlue (for iOS), or other BLE Clients
|for testing reading or writing of characteristic values
How CBL Works
CBL is a layer of software that translates function calling conventions between IAR and SDCC. It consists of three parts:
- downcall stubs: these are stub functions for SDCC code to call function in IAR-compiled firmware image.
- upcall jump tables: these are target functions whose addresses are known by IAR for callbacks, and they redirect the callback to the appropriate SDCC functions that translate the calling convention from IAR to SDCC.
- reprogramming profile: this is a firmware feature exposed as a BLE service for the user to write the SDCC-compiled firmware into the code flash.
Background: IAR for 8051
IAR for 8051 supports the use of code banking to enable the CC254x MCU to address more than 64KB of code space. The original 8051 ISA supports 16-bit Xdata pointers, which can address 64KB of code space, but the CC254x can have 256 KB of code flash. To address the additional flash space, the MCU supports a code banking mechanism, where each bank is 32KB in size: bank 0 (first 32KB) is always resident, while the other banks (1, 2, …) can be mapped into the upper 32KB of code space by setting special function register (SFR) bits.
IAR compiler supports bank switching and restoration for function calls by means of relay functions. Instead of an LCALL instruction to the target address, the compiler generates a set of relay functions in the root bank to perform bank switching to the target function's code bank upon calling and restoring the caller's code bank upon return. This way, the caller just has to call using the function's corresponding relay function instead, thereby simplifying the code.
We have developed tools to parse the map file generated by IAR and extract the relay function addresses for each target function. Then, our binding layer includes stub functions that then translate the calling convention, call the relay, and translates the return value.
CBL uses a set of inlined assembly macros for translating calling convention within each stub function. The calling conventions are
SDCC Calling Convention
We use
--model-small while tagging all variables with
__xdata in order to keep pointers 2 bytes (to be compatible with IAR). Otherwise, SDCC uses 3-byte pointers, where the top byte can indicate idata or xdata and the bank number. We also use
- the first parameter uses DPH (least significant byte), DPL, B, and ACC as needed. We disallow bit parameters.
- the other parameters are passed on the internal stack by using the
--stack-autoflag. Note that this means local variables that are declared
__xdatamust be static, since SDCC does not use the external stack (and has no concept of IAR's external stack). The last parameter is pushed first, and each parameter is little endian byte order.
- the return value is passed in DPL, DPH, B, and ACC as needed.
- note that the internal stack is hardware supported and grows upwards (from lower address towards upper address)
- SDCC also pushes a frame pointer (named
_bp) on the stack before the LCALL instruction pushes the return address.
IAR Calling convention
IAR for CC2540 uses the –xdata-reentrant calling convention. This means it makes use of relay functions, passes parameters in registers if possible, and passes the rest of the parameters on the (software-defind) external stack (XSP), which is stored at internal RAM locations 0x18-0x19. It contains the (little-endian byte order) stack that grows downwards (from higher address towards lower address). Parameters are pushed from the last one towards the first, if it cannot find suitable registers to use. It allocates the registers in the following "first-fit" order:
- 1-byte parameters are passed in R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, whichever has not been used.
- 2-byte parameters are passed in R3:R2 (high:low) or R5:R4, if available.
- 3-byte parameters are passed in R3:R2:R1, if possible
- 4-byte parameters are passed in R5:R4:R3:R2, if available
Return values are passed in the following registers:
- 1-byte value: R1
- 2-byte value: R3:R2
- 3-byte value: R3:R2:R1
- 4-byte value: R5:R4:R3:R2
Although IAR supports returning structs, SDCC does not, so we do not have to worry about IAR's use of a hidden pointer (to space allocated by the caller) for the struct.
Downcall Implementation
For downcalls, we hand-crafted assembly code to copy the parameters passed to the stub functions to match the calling convention of IAR before doing an LCALL to the relay address of the target function, and we copy the return values from IAR convention to SDCC convention upon return, tear down the (external) stack, and return to the SDCC caller. These macros are handcrafted for each sequence of parameter sizes and for each return value size. Additional macros may need to be handcrafted for future functions, but for now all of the function prototypes in the firmware have been covered, and the user does not need to see these macros (defined in the file
sdcc2iar.h in the stub function's source code).
Upcalls are made from IAR space to SDCC space. IAR compiler also makes use of relay functions when making the upcall, but these functions (to be compiled by SDCC) do not necessarily exist by the time the IAR code is compiled. Our solution is to define a jump table for functions whose addresses are statically allocated, so that IAR can generate the relay functions to these functions in the jump table. Then, SDCC-generated code will fill in those functions in the jump table to jump to the actual call-back functions.
Each SDCC-compiled callback function must include a macro to convert IAR-passed parameters into SDCC ones at the beginning, and it must use a special macro to return value and control back to the IAR caller. These macros are defined in the
iar2sdcc.h header file.
The code compiled using SDCC is limited to one code bank (32KB), 2KB of which is devoted to the jump table, so the user code is limited to 30KB. Also, all local variables must be declared static (in order for pointers to work consistently), and total static space is limited to about 270 bytes (as of this writing). However, one can call OSAL's malloc() to dynamically allocate more memory if needed.
Also, one cannot add new profiles, because the number of callbacks is fixed, as any changes to the number of relay functions will cause the rest of the IAR code to be relocated. However, most applications can simply extend the functionality of existing profiles by handling the reading or writing of additional attributes (just need to handle additional UUIDs or characteristic handles) or types of messages by modifying existing callback functions.

Mary Murphy, President of the Canadian, Energy and Paperworkers Union Local 298 stepped up to the stand at the City Council Meeting on Monday, January 11th to report to Council on what is going on with the feasibility study.
Weve got tonnes of support from the community and we established the Eurocan Industrial Viability group composed of the District of the Kitimat, CEP 298, 1127 and the National, The Kitimat Chamber of Commerce and Envision Financial. The purpose of the Committee is to make Eurocan Pulp and Paper a Viable business, working through issues that continue to surface. This committee made a commitment to hire a consultant as time is of the utmost, said Murphy.
Poyry started work on Tuesday with the full cooperation of the Pulp and Paper Mill to report the potential of the product line as well as alternate product lines. They will make suggestions as to how the mill could make a profit.
"The study will take approximately 8 to 10 weeks and the mill will be cold on February 17, 2010. [...] West Fraser has made the commitment to keep fixed assets in place until March 31, 2010, and we will work to try and get this extended," said Murphy.
Right now, the union is trying to keep the mill warm and discuss environmental issues. According to Murphy, West Fraser has agreed to keep six assets in place until March 31st, 2010. She thanked the Steering committee who put a lot of effort into place over the holidays.
Mayor Monaghan thanked Councillors Richard McLaren and Randy Halyk as well as Municipal Manager Trafford Hall for putting in many long hours on that committee.

Weekly Catechism:
437 To the shepherds, the angel announced the birth of Jesus as the Messiah promised to Israel: "To you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord."32 From the beginning he was "the one whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world," conceived as "holy" in Mary's virginal womb.33 God called Joseph to "take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit," so that Jesus, "who is called Christ," should be born of Joseph's spouse into the messianic lineage of David.34 (525, 486)
"He instructed them to take nothing for the journey but a walking stick – no food, no sack, no money in their belts." (Mark 6:8)
How different we are from the Apostles who took nothing when they ventured out to serve God. Today, we make our journey through life more difficult because of all the material baggage that we drag along. Yet, the more we can let go of, the freer we are to serve God with love and joy.

sidmouth to lyme regis
south west coast path
sunday, 8th may 2016
The weather forecast for the day looks to be fantastic and I should get sun all day long and it might even be HOT!!
Sidmouth high tide: 08:03
Sidmouth low tide: 14:13
I start the day back on the seafront at Sidmouth and wander along the end part of the esplanade again, admiring the rather fancy houses-turned-into-hotels.
At the eastern side of Sidmouth I pass Sidmouth Lifeboat (@sidlifeboat), an independent lifeboat covering a good chunk of East Devon. I cross Alma Bridge over the River Sid, name after the Battle of Alma, before climbing back onto the cliffs via a tarmac path. It's quite a climb up here (525 feet) but there are some benches at the top to rest and admire the view. It's going to be a roller coaster ride from here until I reach Beer.
I admire the bluebells up here on Salcombe Hill.
The views ahead of me are spectacular.
The path continues past South Combe Farm and down some steps to Salcombe Mouth where there is a pebbly beach. I try to find an exit point but there isn't one. I do find some dreaded japanese knotweed though. After struggling to find an exit point I climb back up and find a sign pointing away from Salcombe Mouth. Must have missed that sign when I got here fifteen minutes ago. Whoops!
The coast path heads inland before climbing up on to the cliffs again at Higher Dunscombe Cliff. Did I mention that the views are spectacular.
Here can be found the Weston Plats where, in the 19th century, thanks to the unique micro-climate on these cliffs, local residents were able to produce early crops of flowers, vegetables and strawberries. By the mid 1960s the last of these plots had been abandoned.
After a walk along the clifftops the path descends on some steps to the beach at Weston Mouth where I come across a couple of optimistic anglers. The path climbs steeply yet again to the top of Weston Cliff.
The path ducks inland at Coxe's Cliff, where I pass a pig farm, before heading over grassy clifftops where the path goes through Berry Camp Fort, an Iron Age hillfort. Other lumps and bumps around here indicate the remains of an Iron Age field system. A sign on a kissing gate tells me all about lime burning that used to take place here.
The path descends once again, this time to Branscombe Mouth, and I once again have magnificent views.
The 62,000 tonne container ship MSC Napoli was beached here in January 2007 after experiencing difficulties during a storm. After containers started to get washed up on the beach, scavengers started arriving to 'recycle' the contents. Unfortunately there are no longer any spare motorbikes lying around! The anchor of the ship, weighing 14 tonnes, was presented to the people of Branscombe by the ship's owners and was installed here in July 2008.
I enjoy the beach here before another climb takes me to the top of East Cliff and I enter another caravan park, the Sea Shanty Caravan Park and then the coast path heads through the Hooken Undercliff, formed in 1790 by a slump in the chalk cliffs. I'm thankful for the undercliff as it saves me a hefty hike to the top of the cliffs.
The Beer Blazer 10k race is taking place today and there are runners in florescent clothing everywhere on the undercliffs. It may be a running event but most of the participants seem to be walking rather than running. I don't blame them in this heat!
I zig zag back up to the top of the cliff and round Beer Head where I have lovely views over Beer and Seaton, before reaching the village of Beer.
The Anchor Inn is on the seafront at Beer, just by the slipway, and loads of people are sat outside, on the patch of ground opposite the inn, enjoying the fine weather.
I continue through the Jubilee Memorial Grounds where I have views back over beer, before joining a road.
Following exceptionally wet weather in 2012, there was a cliff fall severing part of Old Beer Road along which the South West Coast Path used to run. As a result Old Beer Road is closed for walkers. A new route was just about to be completed the last time I walked here and is now fully open.
For the first time ever though, the tide is far enough out for me to be able to trudge along the pebbly beach from Seaton Hole to reach Seaton, saving me a trek inland along roads.
I wander along the esplanade and at the far end stop to grab a much needed ice lolly. It's getting rather hot now and I haven't walked in hot conditions for quite some time.
I continue past the Axe Yacht Club (@ayc_racing) and Axmouth harbour.
The coast path between Axmouth and Lyme Regis has been closed from March 2014 due to a large landslip at Culverhole Point and a large inland diversion had to be taken. A new route close to the coast but avoiding the cliff fall has now opened as of April 2016, just in time for my walk! So, I head through the Axe Cliff Golf Club, sucking on my ice lolly as I go, and a sign warns me that it will take three and a half to four hours to walk to Lyme Regis and that the terrain is difficult and walking arduous. It won't and it isn't!
Actually, I've only previous walked this section at the start of a day's walk with fresh legs but today I'm starting to tire and it's very warm and the path is very muddy in places so this section does prove to be more difficult than expected so it does take me two and three quarter hours to walk to Lyme Regis.
The wild flowers here are looking lovely.
The route through to Lyme Regis is all new to me and promises stunning sea views which were a bit lacking the last time I walked here. Details about the new route are a bit sketchy so I hope that it's well marked. Fortunately I've already seen a video of the new route taken by a drone.
At Goat Island I come across a clump of early purple orchids. I'm rubbish at identifying flowers so I hope I've got them right!
On Christmas Eve 1839 an enormous section of cliff slid seaward in an event known as the Great Landslip. A deep chasm formed behind the landslide block, which later became known as Goat Island. I have no idea what goats have got to do with it!
I enter woods which will take me all the way to Lyme Regis and which provide me with much needed shade from a now intense sun. I've been seeing orange tip butterflies for a couple of days now but finally manage to find one who stays around long enough to be photographed.
As it turns out the waymarking was perfect but the promised stunning sea views, except briefly at Pinhay Cliffs, were lacking. The rocks and tree roots are slippery and there is a lot more mud than I expected but it is a thoroughly pleasant walk to Lyme Regis.
Two and three quarter hours after entering Natural England's Axmouth to Lyme Regis Undercliffs National Nature Reserve I emerge from the woods above The Cobb at Lyme Regis. I descend down to the harbour and enjoy the beach here. The place is heaving with people. Not surprising as it is a beautiful Sunday afternoon.
I head through a crowded Lyme Regis and walk up towards the car park above Lyme Regis where my lift awaits. What a thoroughly pleasant day's walking.
The giant cliffs, Salcombe Hill and Higher Dunscombe Cliff, either side of Salcombe Mouth consist of Mercia Mudstone capped with Upper Greensand. The Mercia Mudstone is Triassic and the Upper Greensand is Cretaceous.
Between Axmouth and Lyme Regis sandstone and chalk slipping over clay and limestone has left a ragged coastline dissected by some of the largest coastal landslides in the country.
This area is renowned for landslips and slips took place in 1775, 1828, 1839 and 1840 as well as in 2014 which forced the closure of the south west coast path.
The cliffs at Lyme Regis are largely made up of Lower Jurassic clays with bands of limestone.
Flora and fauna encountered on the walk today includes :-
- chaffinches
- robins
- honesty
- alexanders
- japanese knotweed
- herb robert
- bluebells
- primroses
- wild garlic
- celandines
- cowslips
- dandelions
- red admirals
- peacock butterflies
- speckled wood butterflies
- orange tip butterflies
- chiff chaffs
- blackcaps
The podcast of today's walk is now available. You can subscribe via the iTunes store or listen using the player below.
According to my phone I've walked 20.15 miles today - I wasn't expecting that distance - which amounts to 47317 steps. Blimey! It has been a beautiful day's walking on the South West Coast Path and for the first time this year it has been HOT!!. Nine out of ten!
My total ascent today has been 1032.20 metres or 3386 feet and it feels like it.

Russian rocket artillery units together with the company of unmanned aerial vehicles of the 201military base have fulfilled the task of detection and fire defeat of the relative enemy in Tajikistan.
As reports TASS with the reference to the press service of the Central military district (CMD), actions took place in the framework of the tactical exercises with combat shooting.
"Unmanned aerial vehicles "Granat" provided the discovery of the command post and camp of relative enemy that were hidden in the crevices of the mountains. Then calculations of reactive systems of volley fire BM-21 "Grad" made their fire damage. At the end of the shooting within three minutes the gunners completed the change of firing positions, moving away from retaliation," said the CMD.

Another bit of indecision this morning in terms of our next steps. We had given away the stone of destiny, and couldn't contact Tom. And by now, I suppose you are used to us ignoring your route advice???
Well. As advised on the blog-vote, we should now turn back to the coast and head down towards San Diego. Or same, but delayed following another day in Yosemite??
I got up early and made another fire to think about our options. And then I got offered coffee by our neighbours who had arrived rather tired in the early hours of the morning. By and by, it turns out that Tim and Byron are two of the loveliest people we've met yet, and there's been quite a few.
We had a lot of fun chatting with them and drinking more and more coffee; and everyone was even more determined to stay put as a consequence.
But in the end, we said goodbye to the guys, and made a fundamental decision - we are not making enough easterly progress!
So we decided to set off East....
We drove through the whole of Yosemite Park, to the Eastern exit, and then toward Mono Lake; which is a bit like Salt Lake. i.e. very salty and a bit weird. Weirdest of all are the 'tufa' which have grown from the salt mineral deposits from underground springs. As the water level dropped in the lake due to water extraction (now being reversed), the tufa became visible. We went down to see the lake shortly after arriving in Lee Vining (??), just the other side of the Yosemite montain range.
Here are some photos of the ride over, (which Sarah drove most of without hitting anything or being involved in some bizarre incident - more later), and the Tufa at sunset.
Mono Lake and the tufas at sunset.
And an odd one of the flies! The lake is a unique ecosystem where the brine flies and birds have evolved to adapt to the conditions. These flies line the shoreline, and feed on the nutrients from the salt water... or at least they did until Lewis got there and spoiled their whole day.

You're Not Alone: How Storytelling Can Help Combat Bullying
"So what did you do when they picked on you?" These were the words a young kid bravely mumbled as I was sharing stories of overcoming being verbally bullied when I was his age. As his eyes peeked out of his hoodie I could tell he was desperately looking for answers and inside my soul was praying that I could share something with him that would help.

Just In, bottles of the always delightful and tasty TruBee honey, in Spring Coastal & Summer Wildflower. The honeys capture the essence of a particular region and season. Instead of confining the bees to a single-source diet, their "free-range" bees are in places where they can forage tulip poplar, fruit blossoms and black locust in the spring, then feast on wildflowers, herbs and clover in the summer. Each jar of TruBee honey captures the taste of nature in a particular place and time. Given the changes in rainfall, sunshine and bloom time, the unique taste of each particular harvest may never be repeated again.
Well Stocked Mariage Freres Tea Shelves
This ends up being well-travelled tea. We import Mariage Freres directly from the company in Paris. It is so interesting because I get alerts along the way after I place my order–when it has been packed, what flight the boxes are on, when the flight has landed, when it clears customs, when it will be delivered to the shop.
The minute the huge boxes are brought into the shop you start smelling how good it all is. Then we start opening up the big boxes, and there is just a symphony of scents wafting through the air. I love tea arrival day. The shelves once again fully-stocked with fresh tea.
Barbara Barry Tea
I am over the moon thrilled to now be offering 2 very special tea blends by design icon, and Watson Kennedy customer, Barbara Barry. Her newest, Orange Grove, smells as yummy as it tastes. It perfectly blends Madagascar orange peel, Tahitian vanilla beans, and an exquisite oolong. Just typing all those ingredients made my taste buds tingle.
Citrine, has well composed layers of French verveine, Arabic chamomile, Thai lemongrass and organic peppermint.
The teas come in a beautiful black tin, ready for stylish gift giving.
They have found a very good home. We are always happy to gift wrap and ship–to any tea lover on your list.
Box After Box of Mariage Freres Tea
Our Fall shipment of Mariage Freres tea arrived from France yesterday. I am always delighted to see the boxes arrive after they have taken an Air France flight direct from Paris. We received over 1400 tins and boxes of muslin bags for your sipping enjoyment. The tea has gained a somewhat cult following–it is always fun to spot the iconic black tin in stylish homes when I am leafing thru design magazines. It really is amazing tea! We stock 12 varieties, in both loose and bagged. In a past issue of House Beautiful, they asked me what my favorite host/hostess gift to give was, and I said a tin of Mariage Freres would have to be it.

Moon Approaches Chi Tauri
While attempting to image the Earthshine on the Moon, I noticed this star on the camera LCD screen. As I looked at the images, I thought I had jiggled the camera during the half second exposure because I saw two stars. On further review, the second star just 20.1? below Chi Tauri is another star. Look closely. Its very dim but its there. It shows up easily on the full resolution image on my website. I?m unsure if this is an optical double only, or an actual companion star of Chi Tauri. Chi Tauri itself is an actual binary system with separation of only 0.8?
A few minutes later, the moon occulted both stars only about 2 seconds apart. I was going to try to capture it on video, but my camera would not pick up the earthshine or either star in video. Remember, this is a half second exposure. On the other hand, for a Dobsonian telescope without tracking, I?m rather impressed my camera can pick up an 8.4 Magnitude star in a half second exposure ? short enough for no trailing. I think its time to try for some star clusters!

frequently asked questions
What time will you arrive?
For evening events, such as weddings or parties, I usually arrive to set up 90 minutes prior to my start time. This ensures I have plenty of time to load in, set up and soundcheck.
How long do you need to set up?
I request 90 minutes to load in, set up and sound check. Lifts or stairs may increase load-in time.
How long will you perform for?
I am very flexible with my sets and can offer a wide variety of set lengths for evening and afternoon entertainment.
*Please note that my finish time is 12am unless otherwise agreed.
What time should you start playing?
This is completely up to you and your schedule on the day. In most cases, I start the DJ set at 7pm, with the first dance followed directly by the first set between 8 and 8.30pm. However, this is only a guide. I also find it's best to serve the buffet during the live set breaks.
Do you provide music between and before sets?
Yes, I offer a complimentary DJ Service as standard. Songs are manually mixed, so this is not an automated playlist. Should you have any specific requests for DJ songs, please do feel free to put them on your booking form.
Will you require food and/or refreshments?
Yes please! If it's an all-day booking, i.e. 'Afternoon & Evening Package' or 'Deluxe Package', a meal and a soft drinks tab at the bar under the name 'Band' would be greatly appreciated.
Do you do requests and first dances?
Absolutely. I can learn & perform your first dance for you, plus a further 3 requests. My set list is tried & tested, so you can be assured that the dance floor will remain full!
Can you tailor your set to our musical taste?
Yes, I play a vast range of music ranging from pop and rock, through to Motown and soul. Every event is different, from weddings, parties to work dos and company events – I tailor my set to suit you. Feel free to request my full song list.
What kind of events do you cater to?
Weddings, parties, corporate dos - you name it!
Do you provide your own PA system / Lighting equipment?
Yes, I provide my own PA and lighting rig.
Do we need to hire a stage?
A stage is not a necessity, I perform at plenty of events without stages.
How much space do you require?
I am very accommodating when it comes to space and can fit into just about any room or marquee. For weddings and events in larger rooms, I request at least 5 meters in width and 2 meters in depth.
What are the minimum power requirements?
I require at least 2 independent 13 amp sockets. If your marquee company has requested details, please advise that my PA system and lighting use approximately 2.5 kw and a single 16 amp power supply is not sufficient.

CONSERVATION MANITOU acquires Adams properties
Elects 3 new members to its Board of Directors
July 29, 2014 (Ivry-sur-le-Lac, Quebec) – CONSERVATION MANITOU is pleased to announce its second purchase of land on the north shore of Townsend Bay, situated on the east side of Lake Manitou. The latest acquisition comprises several properties totalling approximately 47 acres which form part of a steep forested mountain ridge and includes over 1,000 feet of lakefront. Part of the purchase includes parcels acquired from Doreen Adams under Environment Canada's Ecological Gifts Program. An ecological assessment, performed by biologists from Nature Action Quebec, confirmed the presence of old growth forest and rated the land as having very high conservation value. CONSERVATION MANITOU now owns approximately 80-acres of forest and nearly 3,200 feet of shoreline. This area forms part of the Townsend Nature Preserve, newly named in honor of Samuel Baillairgé Townsend (1861-1937) who purchased these lands in 1906. Samuel Townsend's six great-grandchildren: Stephen Adams, Jorie Adams, Catherine Campbell McLean, Willa Campbell, Stewart Campbell, and Alexandra (Sandy) Adams have been instrumental in supporting the creation of the Townsend Nature Preserve.
CONSERVATION MANITOU held its first annual members' meeting on May 17, 2014 and is pleased to announce the election of three new directors to its board: Michael Prupas, Matthew Stotland and Joseph Graham. They join founding directors Stephen Takacsy, Kim Holden and David McAusland. CONSERVATION MANITOU now has over 100 members who have made donations or pledges totalling nearly $1.6 million. "Thanks to our donors, we have been able to accomplish much in a very short period of time making our first two significant purchases of ecologically sensitive land, but our task has only just begun. We are now working with several other families in order to preserve hundreds of acres of forested mountains and wetlands in the area. We continue our fundraising efforts to help pay for acquisitions and cover ongoing stewardship costs." states Stephen Takacsy, Chair of CONSERVATION MANITOU. "Conservation is an investment in our future, and preserving the natural capital of a region not only helps to protect the health of its ecosystem but contributes to the ultimate wealth of its communities."
CONSERVATION MANITOU is one the largest organizations dedicated to the preservation of natural areas in the Laurentians. It is a registered charity and accredited by Environment Canada under the Ecological Gifts Program. Its mission is to preserve and protect the ecosystem and natural environment of Lake Manitou and its surroundings, by acquiring land and conservation easements, either donated or purchased, and providing stewardship services in perpetuity.

The government is kicking off the Startup SG branding.
As part of its efforts to attract more foreign entrepreneurs launching their startups in Singapore, the government is launching the Startup SG brand, a new umbrella branding that encapsulates all the efforts to support startup schemes.
Part of this new branding is looking for the right talents, as Minister of State for Trade and Industry Koh Poh Koon noted.
"The rising global protectionist sentiments that emerged in 2016 present us with the opportunity to position Singapore as an attractive startup location for global talent. Foreign entrepreneurs have the capacity to add to the vibrancy of our startup scene. They complement our local startups through the cross-fertilisation of ideas, catalyse new partnerships and create good jobs for our people. As at 2015, foreign startups employed more than 19,000 workers in total," Mr Koh explained.
He outlined three key changes that will be implemented using the work pass scheme EntrePass. First of the enhancement is the remoccal of the requirement for applicants to have a paid-up capital of at least $50,000 in their startups, to welcome global entrepreneurs with good ideas to come in at a much earlier stage, and grow their businesses from Singapore.
Mr Koh added, "We will also broaden the evaluation criteria for global startup founders with an established track record to explore the startup scene here. Finally, we will extend the validity of each EntrePass from the current one year to two years, after the first renewal at Year 2. In other words, if the foreign entrepreneur can demonstrate progress at the end of the first year, the EntrePass will be extended for another year. Thereafter, subsequent EntrePass renewals will be valid for two years."
Meanwhile, another key is equity financing. As not all startups have the same funding needs or gestation periods, Singapore will enhance the co-investment support for promising startups in deep-tech areas, such as in medical technology, clean technology and advanced manufacturing, to catalyse private sector investment for this group.
This will be done in two ways. Mr Koh said the the investment cap for the co-investment portion for deep-tech startups will be doubled from $2m to $4m, allowing the government to tier its funding support according to the differing needs.
More so, the proportion of the co-investment funding support for supported investments will be raised from 50% to 70%.

text: WKRP TV Decades Network Returns To Block Broadcasting Lineup By John Kiesewetter • Apr 10, 2018 CBS Block Broadcasting's low-power Channel 25 has upgraded its equipment to add the Decades nostalgia TV network from its defunct sister Channel 20. Channel 25 -- technically WBQC-TV, but branded as "WKRP TV" – now broadcasts 12 networks. Movies!, Heroes & Icons Networks Added To Channel 25 By John Kiesewetter • Jan 26, 2018 ABC They're back! Low-power WKRP TV (Channel 25) has added two networks from sister station WOTH-TV (Channel 20), which stopped broadcasting Tuesday. GET TV Returns To Cincinnati Airwaves By John Kiesewetter • Apr 11, 2017 GET TV After a six-week absence, the GET TV network returned to Cincinnati Monday on over-the-air Channel 25.3 and Cincinnati Bell Fioptics Channel 292. WOTH-TV Drops Antenna TV, Adds BUZZR TV Game Shows By John Kiesewetter • Nov 4, 2015 Wikipedia Low power WOTH-TV has added the BUZZR game show network on over-the-air Channel 20.3 and dropped Antenna TV, which I'm hearing could move to a stronger Cincinnati signal before Johnny Carson "Tonight Show" reruns premiere in January. BUZZR airs reruns of Monty Hall's "Let's Make A Deal," "Family Feud," "Match Game," "Super Password," "To Tell The Truth," "What's My Line," "I've Got A Secret," "Press Your Luck" and "Tattletales." Antenna TV, owned by Tribune Media Co., adds much anticipated Carson "Tonight Show" reruns on Jan. 1, as I reported on in August. Johnny Carson's 'Tonight Show' Returns To Cincinnati TV Jan. 1 By John Kiesewetter • Aug 13, 2015 Wikipedia Update 4 p.m. 08/13/15: As I suspected, Tribune executive Sean Compton grew up as a huge Johnny Carson fan in Connersville, Ind., watching "The Tonight Show" while listening to his father (Dale "The Truckin' Bozo" Sommers) on WLW-AM. Compton, Tribune president for strategic programming and acquisitions, for years had wanted to get rights for Carson's "Tonight Show," which will debut Jan. 1 on Tribune's Antenna TV network. Tired of being told it was impossible, Compton reached out to Carson's nephew, Carson Entertainment President Jeff Sotzing, through a mutual friend. Compton, a former WLW-AM and Jacor Communications employee, explained all in this email to me: "This was NOT easy to do… Jeff's job is to help protect the legacy of his amazing uncle… This deal was all about one thing, protecting and showcasing that legacy in a way that Johnny would approve. I was sincere and honest with Jeff the whole way through, made sure he knew of our plans to run it in a way that viewers would want to see it (in late-night seven days a week, with few to no edits). "As a kid I lived in Connersville Indiana. We didn't change our time six months of the year, so in the summer I'd watch Johnny twice. Once on WLWT, and then again on WTHR in Indianapolis, as they delayed prime/late night half the year to stay on consistent Indiana time. "I had two TV's in my room growing up and five radios. I listened to distant stations, and often had my ear on The Bozo while watching Johnny. "I actually found two (Carson) episodes -- one where Johnny was talking about a WKRC radio promotion in 1988, and an episode where Loretta Lynn talked about listening to country and western music on WCKY-AM -- … while screening EVERY episode of Johnny from 1972-1992. "For six months every night including weekends I was screening episodes. We picked our first year, 365 episodes, and they are amazing! "We need our low-power Cincinnati affiliate to get us on cable so Cincy can see this show. Start a movement, will you!!!" Original post at :11:18 a.m. 08/13/15: Heeere's Johnny! Johnny Carson's "Tonight Show" returns to television after a 24-year absence on the Antenna TV network aired by low-power WOTH-TV (Channel 20.3). Entire Carson "Tonight Shows" have not been broadcast since he retired in May 1992. Clips of Carson's late-night interviews aired on Turner Classic Movies (TCM) in recent years. The shows were acquired for Antenna TV, owned by Tribune Media Co., by Sean Compton, a former WLW-AM and Jacor Communications employee.

John T. Frederick wrote, in his 1924 book A Handbook of Short Story Writing, that "for the most intimate and final revelation of a character to be realized, it is best to put the character in action rather than conversation or introspection."
I'm glad I found this passage since I am struggling to conclude what I finished writing. This is my dilemma with concluding my book. There is only dialogue. I need a performance.
Yes, performance and action do not necessarily mean the same in a lot of ways. I'm looking for something between action and dialogue and performance seemed to fit for me. Although, I don't know what I mean by it.
The standard theory has one character changing from beginning to end. I made that happen. Now, how do I make him happy about it and ride into the sunset without looking back for a sequel?
I read a lot of different genres and some authors are good beginners, some good at the middle, and some end the novel well. The key is to be good for two out of three. It can be a struggle to accomplish this. Also, which is lower in priority? Beginning, middle, or end? I'm trying for at least one out of three.
So, I'll put in a performance. I've decided this will be action and dialogue together that includes a second character. Like a dance. Maybe a tango.
P.S. Yes, I've used the same image before. I like it.

The Rebels of LA, Palm Trees, and Monsieur Hedi Slimane
The legend of our time, French born Italian-Tunisian designer and photographer Hedi Slimane is famed for persisting on his "ultra-skinny-drug-infused-rebel-youth" aesthetics throughout his time in Dior Homme and Saint Laurent. He has quitted Paris, London, Berlin, and the European capitals in search of a new obsession—The West Coast Sunshine Filled American Cool Kids of Los Angeles.
In the recent photo series he published on The Hedi Slimane Diary, we are seeing the strong continuation of his vision, of his standard of beauty, of the same-same-but-different sexy late night rock n' roll scene of the so called "New Berlin". Art has prospered, so have the creative community in the city.
The intoxicating black and white ambiance takes us into another side of LA, where blonde organic bimbos and Pilate-Mums don't seem to exist. It is where dreams and hopes turn into reality. It is where ultimate rebellious come into live.

Acronis True Image 2019
Buy Now...
So let's start with what is new. First an all in one bootable media and backup tool on an external hard drive which means even if Windows will not boot providing your PC will run past the BIOS this can kick in.
Acronis Active Protection now extends to NAS boxes so Ransomware should be held in check.
While Acronis has had Cloud backups available for several years they have always been slow and so backing up the whole PC to the Cloud is not a viable option the speed of backup is in this way is now improved.
Backup Clean-up Features are now improved so you do not have to 'allow this action for 30 minutes' multiple times to remove old redundant backups.
Finally Backup upon connection, this means that as soon as the external drive is connected the backup will start without any intervention from you.
In previous years when I have tried to install a new version it insists on removing the old version first and this is a point when problems can occur. This year while it still removes the old version it is integrated with the new version being installed so less likely to get a problem.
In normal use there is little difference in what you see, last year saw the introduction of being able to shut the program down and it would continue in background mode, on completion you can even set it to shut down the PC, however as a belt, braces and safety pin person I like to see what is happening and while I often minimize it only checking during the backup on progress I can and do continue to use the PC normally during the backup.
There are several ways to buy Acronis both with and without Cloud storage space and you choose the number of PC's you want to cover. I will list the options at the end.
If a new version becomes available during your subscription period you will be informed and then it is automatically available to download and install. When you subscription expires you can renew automatically and just enter the new licence number and then you are covered for another year.
Even if the worst never happens – unlikely – you can still restore single files that you may have deleted by mistake and once removed from the Recycle would only be reclaimed – possibly – with expert help. With Acronis just open the last Backup you know that had that file before you deleted it and restore it, it's that simple. If you overwrite the same file and then decide you need information in an earlier version just rename the new version then restore the old version and get what you need.
When the worst does happen make a coffee or two and let Acronis restore everything and then you will only have to find files since your last backup. I see that you also get Parallels Toolbox for free and as that cost £15.99 when purchased alone that reduces the cost of Acronis.
You can even get a free 30 day trial version.
Acronis True Image 2019 is available from the link below from £34.99.
