text: Home Analytics Trends Smartphones: A Supercomputer in Your Pocket Analytics Trends Smartphones: A Supercomputer in Your Pocket By Mikal Khoso - April 21, 2016 0 11994 Share on Facebook Tweet on Twitter The first computers were technological behemoths. They were not only feats of technical engineering but physical feats in their own right. Owning a computer was the preserve of the largest of companies, governments and militaries around the world. It was decades before the likes of IBM, Microsoft and Apple kicked off the personal computing revolution by shrinking computers and putting them in homes across America. Technology continued to advance in leaps and bounds in the decades that followed the kickoff of the personal computing revolution. Computers – in particular processing chips – continued to shrink at an exponential rate while becoming ever more powerful. Gordon Moore, the co-founder of intel, predicted in a 1965 paper that the processing power for computer chips would double every two years. This prediction has held steady in the years since then and the effect on computing power has been extraordinary. Today, the smartphone in your pocket has more computing power than all of NASA when it put the first men on the moon in 1969. A World of Smartphones There are about 2 billion smartphones in the world today and that is set to rise to 6 billion by 2020. 6 billion smartphones represents huge computational capacity, and often that capacity is underutilized. While worries are growing that we are 'addicted to' or 'overusing' or smartphones, the fact of the matter is that are smartphones spend most of their existence in our pocket, in a bag or on a table somewhere. Cars are an analogous example. During their lifetime, cars spend 95% of their time parked and only 5% of their time actually driving. But why is this important? While we are producing more data than ever, we're struggling to analyze much of it. According to a recent EMC report, only 1% of data produced is every analyzed but 37% of data would be useful to analyze. Increasing our processing power by leveraging smartphone downtime would go a long way to making data analysis faster and more efficient. The idea is based on the concept of distributed computing. A distributed system is a group of interconnected computers working towards the same goals. A distributed system can divided tasks between these different computers to help get work done faster and more efficiently. To put it in perspective, 1 million phones would be an amount of processing power equivalent to the processing power of one of the world's 30 supercomputers. It would only take 30 million of the world's 2 billion smartphones to match the processing power of the world's 30 supercomputers. This represents a huge, untapped well of processing power that could drive technology and data analysis in years to come. Smartphones and Crowdsourced Processing Power In the last decade, crowdsourced processing power has slowly revolutionized research in a number of different fields. The development of crowdsourced processing power has been spearheaded by a number of industry initiatives. IBM's World Community Grid – launched in 2004 – works with a userbase of 700,000 volunteers who have donated their time to support over 26 research projects to date. HTC – a rising Taiwanese smartphone manufacturer – launched the HTC Power to Give initiative in 2014 which allows you to download an app which will connect your smartphone's processing power – while you sleep – to a research-based grid aimed at solving the world's biggest problems. Meanwhile the University of Berkeley runs the Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing (BOINC), an open-source platform which allows researchers to tap into the processing power of computers and smartphones around the world. While our smartphones might not spend 95% of their time unused like vehicles, dedicated only 6 hours of downtime (say a night's sleep) towards one of these initiative would bring huge amounts of processing power online. This would have a significant impact on our capacity to analyze and work with data. It would also help advance research initiatives worldwide by leaps and bounds and encourage further adoption of technological platforms in research. Conceivably, users could even be paid a small hourly rate for each hour of processing power dedicated to these initiatives similar to how Amazon Mechanical Turk is set up. Overall, the smartphones in our pocket represent a goldmine of untapped processing power. As the demands for processing power rise in the years to come, the demand for creative ways to source this power will rise in tandem. One day, your phone could be searching for extraterrestrial life, helping to fight childhood cancer and solving encryption challenges all while you sleep soundly just a few feet away.

Once I got started on my Gilmore Girls rewatch, I got in the zone, which is exactly what Netflix does. It's so easy to push 'next episode' even if it's past midnight and you're getting up at six am. And the next day all I could do was sing "where you lead, I will follow!" Anyway I already talked about season one, I think it was an excellent beginning to the series. We know that Lorelai and Rory Gilmore are unusual mother and daughter. Rory is very intelligent and newly arrived at a prestigious prep school, plus navigating her first relationship. Lorelai was proposed to by teacher Max at the end of the season, while juggling a private back and forth with Luke Danes that had yet to be fulfilled. Alas, for the fanbase. They spent every Friday night with Lorelai's parents, who now had the chance to get to know their granddaughter, although they have a very difficult relationship with their daughter. That's basically the summary. On to season two!
This season introduced one of my least favorite characters on the show, which alas was very popular with everyone else: Jess, Luke's rebellious nephew and Rory's new love interest. Gag me. I'll admit I've never liked the bad boy thing, and I have even less patience for it now as an adult. He's rude to everyone in town. The only one he's nice to is Rory, and that's because he wants her, so I take it with a grain of salt. He's one of those guys who has the potential of more intelligence, but thinks he's too cool for school. I will never get his popularity, but I steeled myself for the rewatch, since I'm going to have to see him for awhile. Sigh. Anyway that's the main drive for this season, at least in Rory's case. Jess comes into town, everyone hates him but Rory, she has feelings for him, but she is still with Dean. Dean and Rory have some trouble early in the season because her grandparents disapprove of him being lower class. Oh you're just going to love Jess, guys. Anyway Jess and Luke have a deal: he graduates high school, and he can stay. He is sent away when he gets into a car accident with Rory, and only Luke and Rory really care. He comes back at the end of the season and Rory kisses him at Sookie's wedding. A fact she neglects to tell anyone else, especially her boyfriend. Uncool.
Lorelai meanwhile has drama of her own. She agrees to Max's proposal and gets into a fight with her mother, because she doesn't tell her, and Emily has to hear from Sookie instead. However in her bachelorette party, she has second thoughts and calls Rory's father Christopher. She decides to run off with Rory and cancel the wedding. Luke's relieved of course, and he very poorly hides it. Luke and Lorelai have a falling out after Rory gets in a car accident with Jess. She angrily blames Jess' behavior and general existence in their town on Luke, and questions his parenting/guardian skills. I can't really fault her for that, Jess is out of control, but Luke does try. At least more than Jess' mother. Lorelai's father Richard leaves his job, or rather he's foisted out into retirement, but he decides he wants to start his own business.
Lane is sent off for a lot of the season, Sookie and Jackson get married, and Paris and Rory become legitimate friends. I have to admit on the whole I'm not terribly interested in the love stories here. In Lorelai's case, we all knew she would end up with Luke, that was end game, plain and simple. I was just like GET THERE ALREADY. I did enjoy their falling out, because it felt legitimate, and it's good to see them clash in realistic ways. As always I find Lorelai's relationship with her parents fascinating – and difficult – to watch. The episode when she goes to the spa with her mother was a tense one, and unfortunate. I sympathized with Emily's wish that they had a closer relationship, while understanding Lorelai's side that they're just too different and have too much bad history.
Anyway the season ends with Lorelai and Christopher getting back together, I always disliked Christopher too, while finding him charming. He plans on breaking up with his girlfriend, but she reveals she's pregnant, and he can't walk away from another child. Which wow harsh. That's not going to cause any friction or anything. He breaks both Lorelai and Rory's heart. Since I am generally anti-Jess, I pretty much sighed and rolled my eyes through most of his scenes. The only relationship of his I enjoy is with Luke. I have some sympathy for Jess, because his ditz of a mother and deadbeat father do not exactly lead to a happy childhood. I was disappointed in Rory for missing her mother's graduation to see the mumble mouthed jerk, and her general bad behavior. But! More Paris? Always good. Also I was happy for Sookie and Jackson. I better steel myself because there's only more Jess drama coming.

If you want to know how to keep flood water out of your home, there are other options apart from sandbags. But who sells them, how effective are they and what do they cost?
How to keep flood water out of your home
The most common (and often, affordable) option for keeping flood water out of your home, is to buy something that works like a sandbag but that isn't filled with sand. These sandbag substitutes can be much easier to move around and are often much more effective than sandbags. There are several companies selling sandbag substitutes.
1. AET Flood Defence sells a variety of products, including an 'aqua sac' sandbag. It looks more like a sandbag in appearance, but is filled with an absorbent polymer.
Price: As I write this, ten 'sandbag sized' bags cost around £54 (plus P&P).
3. Cocomfort sells sandless bags under the product name of Emergency Flood Bags. You can buy these online.
4. Allups sells flood protection strips which are designed to be attached to your door to keep out flood water. The strips are meant to be 'trapped' in the door and are designed to swell to exclude water.
Price: As I write this, a box of flood protection strips costs £19.99 (plus P&P).
5. The Flood Company sells sand substitute bags called 'flood sax'.
Price: As I write this, a pack of 20 'sandbag sized' bags cost around £145, excluding VAT and postage and packing.
Door barriers and defences
Doors and barriers designed to stop water coming in are another option. There are a couple of different manufacturers selling panels that slot in front of your door or doors especially designed to keep flood water out.
1. Caro Group sells a WaterDoor which is designed to keep flood water out of domestic properties and and a larger-scale 'water wall' which is designed to keep water out of a road or garden. The WaterDoor consists of a track either side of the door into which aluminum panels can be dropped.
Price: The company says that prices vary but a WaterDoor could typically cost between £300 and £600.
2. Flashflooddoors sells doors designed to resist flood water.
3. Floodark sells flood boards that are designed to fit in front of or behind your door, garage door or conservatory.

As discussed in the introduction, setup and management of clusters can come down to a personal style choice. However, there are technical and practical reasons to choose one type of installation method over another. We will describe the tradeoffs of each type of installation. Popular open-source management systems include: NPACI Rocks, OSCAR, SCore, Scyld, and XCAT. The Linux space is enormous and cluster toolkit designers have to make some decisions on what types of generalizations are the most important. In particular, authors have to determine if and how they will scale across distributions and how they will support different kinds of hardware. None of these toolkits covers the complete space of distributions hardware.
The Linux distribution space is a moving target and includes (as of this writing) a number of players: RedHat, SuSE, Mandrake, Debian, United Linux, and more. Each distribution has it's own style, file layout, package format, package definitions, and support for a variety of hardware. Small differences such as using shadow passwords (or not), using xinetd or inetd, and SysV-compatible startup differentiate distributions. For cluster software service designers (e.g., PBS, MPICH, Sun Grid Engine, Ganglia), differences in packaging definitions can cause more headaches, especially in resolving dependencies. Redhat packages, for example, are put together differently than similarly named SuSE packages. Debian uses dpkg and apt-get. For the cluster toolkit designer, supporting all these variations is an impossibly large task. As a would-be cluster builder, you have to choose the distribution and the toolkit. Do pick a toolkit as a starting point for your cluster and become involved in its improvement. Don't roll your own installation and management from the ground up, as this just becomes a waste of your time in retreading old ground. You have more important things to do with your time—using your new cluster.
Each of the commercial Linux distributions must do hardware detection to automatically install the right device drivers on the widest variety of hardware possible. Distributions that don't detect the most common hardware (and support the quickly changing network device world), simply are discarded by the user community in a classic case of "survival of the fittest." This last point is of significant importance to cluster builders because of the desire to use the best, fastest, newest, and cheapest. No judgment is made here as to which distribution is superior—rather it is the fact that these differences exist that is important.
The hardware space gets more complicated each day. Beowulf clusters used to be only IDE disks. Today, IDE (EIDE, UltraATA, Serial ATA), SCSI, Integrated Drive Arrays, and Storage Area Network (SAN) adapters are de rigeur for cluster builders. High-speed interconnects including Scali, Myrinet, Quadrics, and Infiniband need to be supported by cluster toolkits. Motherboards, specialized chipsets, variants of x86, Itanium, and Opteron add more to the hardware mix. Again, none of the toolkits covers all of this hardware space. You may asking yourself, "What's the problem? Why don't the cluster toolkits support all of these?". It comes down to practical issues of time, money and resource. Each of the cluster toolkits tests a release on as much hardware as possible—that collection of hardware is simply too small to cover most cases that users see in the field. The toolkit designers and implementers must decide on "which disributions" and "what hardware" is supported. Another way to ask the question is
Should the toolkit scale across Linux distributions? or Should the toolkit scale across hardware?
Scaling across both, the obvious answer, is simply not something that the toolkit designers are able to practically accomplish.
The tradeoffs are simple—if you choose to scale across (support) multiple distributions, then one is practically forced to make some generalizations to fit all the various distributions. The generalization uniformly selected by toolkits that scale across distributions is to take over the base installation and hardware detection piece from the vendors and make these core pieces of the cluster toolkit. These approaches don't leverage the installer supplied by the distribution. Instead, they build their own customized installation programs that can handle a number of different distributions. The advantage is that users have more choice of specific distributions. The drawback here is that the hardware space is large, and it is quite a job to manage the hardware detection and customized kernel modules for lots of hardware.
If you choose a single distribution, then you can leverage the installation and hardware detection of the commericial vendor and worry only about extensions to specific pieces of hardware, such as Myrinet. The clear drawback is that if the distribution does a poor job of this, then the toolkit suffers the same fate.
What we see in the cluster toolkit space is a dichotomy of approaches—disk imaging and description methods. Disk imaging was described in the first edition of this book as the practical way to clone a system onto your cluster nodes. Commercial and open-source tools image-based programs are popular and include: Norton Ghost, PowerQuest Drive Image, SystemImager, Chiba City Imager, and Power-Cockpit. Complete clustering toolkits that use imaging include OSCAR, Chiba City, and CLIC. Description-based installers, on the other hand, use text files to provide a list of packages and instructions needed to completely configure a node. Text-based installers are distribution-specific: Redhat Kickstart, SuSE YaST, and Debian Fully Automatic Installation (FAI). Most of have their genesis (or, at least, inspiration) from Sun's Jumpstart installer. The text-based installation captures disk partitioning, package listing, and software configuration. The advantage here is that a reasonably general text description can work on many different variants of hardware because the distribution's installer is handling all the low-level details of hardware detection. One popular description-based cluster toolkit is NPACI Rocks. But other examples exist like IBMs partially-open source XCAT, and the European Data Grid's LCFG.

Hiring The Services Of The Most Excellent Legal Document Translator In The Market
The field of law is quite complicated to the layperson since it contains terminologies that can only be understood by the specialists. It is possible for you to face trial in instances where you make an error in document containing a deal since it can be taken as an offense under the law. It is necessary that you utilize the works of the legal translation firms when you are faced with a challenge that needs these services. Many legal document translation have been established in the world, and an example of such agencies is the MultiLing which provides their services internationally. It can be hectic to know who the best professional translator is from among the multiple that exist in the market and therefore it is imperative to possess that skills that can help you scrutinize the agencies. Deliberated in this text is the process of hiring the services of the most excellent legal document translator in the market
There is a need to see to it that you do not forget to look at the skills that are possessed by the professional that you want to hire for the job before you can make your judgment. You should ensure that the person you select not only have the understanding of the document but also of the laws governing such areas. There is a need to see to it that you select the company that knows what the law says about intellectual property when you desire that they provide you patent papers translation.
It is necessary that you check the lingual and technical knowledge of the people that the company has hired before you employ them for your task. It is wise that you choose an agency whose workers know the language the document is written inside out. You should see to it that the employees of the said translator firm can be in a position to incorporate the upcoming digital technologies.
It implies that you will have to submit some pertinent information that concerns your firm to a third party if you employ the services of a translator. It would, therefore, be a grave mistake to choose a service provider who is not in apposition to conceal the details that you give them.
There is a need to check whether the translator you are working with is one that has a license to practice in this field. It is not debatable that for the government officials or the judge to believe what you say to them then, it should be coming from a translator recognized by law. It is wise that you employ the agencies who are members of the translation corporations in your state.

Life is beautiful
Yesterday my parents, J, Nora and I piled into the car and made our way to the Baltimore Aquarium, which was one of my favorite places when I was little. We walked through the freezing cold along the harbor, bought our tickets and spent a couple hours among the various species of fish and plant and the crowds of other children and parents and grandparents who'd had the same idea. There was something incredibly heartwarming about watching my daughter make her way through the same paths past huge shark-filled tanks I'd once walked, and pointing excitedly at bright, darting, exotic fish.
But perhaps even better was the hilarity of driving there and back, packed tightly in the front and back seats, yelling at my father for pumping the gas pedal in a motion sickness-inducing manner and checking his Blackberry when we were sitting at a red light ("I was stopped it's ok to do it when you're STOPPED!"). Funny, busy, insane, hot. But the mundane details of getting there just as good as the actual destination.

Why is it so difficult to stay present and enjoy the moment? We all are constantly thinking about the future, stressing about things we have to do or worrying about the past. And whenever we would have a chance to enjoy the moment, we probably think how that moment could be even better or what is missing.
I remember that a year ago I couldn't wait to move to Australia. To move here was the thing I wanted the most and it was what I was thinking about all the time. And now that I am here? I'm constantly worrying about the future and about how to build a life and a career that I would really enjoy.
Before moving here I knew that it's going to take some time before I find my place here. I knew that living in a big city like Sydney will be the best option in the beginning but not something that will fulfill my soul in a long run. I knew that I won't have a big social circle or community around me here for a while. And I knew that my career won't kickstart after migrating to a new country with only limited working rights in the beginning.
It was actually my sister who reminded me, when I was telling her about my feelings, that maybe I just need to accept where I am at the moment and stop comparing my life to the expectations I have. And just enjoy the moment.
Being young and ambitious, it's sometimes difficult to be patient, accept things as they come and enjoy the present. But in order to enjoy the moment, patience and acceptance are what we need. Patience to know that your life is going to the right direction. And acceptance to be grateful for where you are at the moment.
But did you know that staying present is also a skill that you can work on? You don't need to instantly find that zen in all the aspects of your life but rather gradually work towards that direction.
Here are my favourite things to do when I notice that my mind is all over the place and its difficult to be present.
For example going for a run always clears my head and focusing on one thing is much easier afterwards. However, lots of people do sports these days just to lose weight or punish themselves for eating unhealthily. To really get the best benefits of doing sports, try something you truly enjoy, or start learning something new. Learning new things is always fun and a good way to stay in a moment by focusing on one thing.
Being surrounded by nature
Nature is the best stress reliever, and its been proven so many times. Spending time outdoors in nature really reduces stress. To stay present, try mindfully listen to the sounds, explore your surroundings and focus on the things and colours you see around.
Finding the flow
Of course this is easier said than done but finding the flow is just the ultimate way to stay present. You can reach the flow state in anything you enjoy doing – reading, writing, cooking, painting, running, yoga, even cleaning. I personally love to do inversions and balance poses in yoga since you really need to focus and be in the moment to stay in the pose.
Meditation even for a couple minutes can make a difference. Just focus on your breathing and come up with a mantra that you will repeat in your mind. For example repeat "I choose to let go" in your mind and try to let go of any thoughts (especially the negative and stressful ones) in your mind.

This female bottom pills has helped our clients achieve firmer, fuller, rounder bums naturally and effectively.

Results can be seen within the first 3 weeks and maximum results can be achieved after a 6 month course of continued use. Just imagine 6 months down the track, your body will be curvier, sexier and clothes will fit you amazingly.
Find out for yourself, try Perfect Butt and join the long list of curvier satisfied customers from all over the world, who are already using perfect butt and are raving about their results.
How do I take it?
Take one capsule of supplement twice daily, especially for the first month, for most effective results, be very disciplined and do not miss any dose. You will notice results within the first week. Each bottle contains 1 months supply.
How does it work?
Buttocks enhancement pills contains phytoestrogens (naturally occurring non-hormonal plant estrogens). These phytoestrogens stimulate your body to support butt growth.
When will I notice results?
Results will vary due to differences in individual metabolic rates and body chemistry, however you should notice results within 2 to 3 weeks.
What are the ingredients?
Each capsule of Perfect Butt contains:
- Maca is full of vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, amino acids, and more. Maca actually contains five times more protein than a potato and four times more fiber! Maca also has high fat content (good fats!) for a root plant – which is great for butt growth. But what really differentiates Maca from just any old good food are the alkaloids found in the Maca root. These alkaloids stimulate the pituitary gland – the part of your body that is responsible for hormone production and regulation (an extremely important part of growing a bigger perfect butt). This means Maca root has a hormonal effect on your body (remember how important estrogen is for storing fat on your hips and buttocks?) Maca itself has no plant hormones – instead, Maca simply helps your body to balance and produce its own hormones.
- Saw palmetto the natural ingredients present in this plant act as a stimulant to enhance the underdeveloped tissues in your buttocks. One of the few reasons why some women can't get bigger butts is because their body allows the flow of male hormones such as testosterone. However, saw palmetto plants contain anti-androgen which helps your body in blocking the androgen (male hormones) so that you get a curvier figure. Saw palmetto and Maca used for restorative muscle growth.
- Fenugreek has been a popular female enhancement herb over the centuries. This herb is indigenous to countries on the eastern shores of the Mediterranean. It's most well-known for being rich in phytoestrogens and is believed to aid in hormonal production and facilitate the development of the mammary glands which 'feed' on estrogens. Fenugreek seeds contain diosgenin, which is a phytoestrogen compound that mimics the effects of estrogen. Fenugreek extract for natural fat storage in buttocks and hips.
- Wild Yam increases the estrogen in the body. This "Hour Glass Shape" secret herb has been used by Latino women for years. It's not a phytoestrogen, but contains a phyto nutrient that is a precursor for progesterone, which is also important for balancing women's glandular system. This plant hormone diosgenin nourishes the female organs and balances the hormones. It allows your body to have more of an hour glass shape body and makes your butt stand up and out more. Wild Yam extract stimulates healthy hormonal balance.
- L-Tyrosine a naturally occurring amino acid that plays an important role in the functioning of the adrenal, pituitary, and thyroid glands that control hormone production. As such, Tyrosine does not impact butt growth directly, but is important in facilitating butt growth by encouraging the production of hormones that directly impact butt growth.
- Pueraria Mirifica contains a valuable phytoestrogen named miroestrol. Miroestrol is similar to the safest human estrogen estriol. Miroestrol is 3000 times stronger than the estrogenic activity exhibited by soy isoflavones and 1000 times that of red clover. Miroestrol mimics the effects of estradiol (the strongest human estrogen) in the human body – producing the development of female curves and fat storage in the buttocks that estrogen provides.
- Black Pepper extract for better absorption into the body.
Is Perfect Butt Safe?
Perfect Butt is an all natural herbal dietary supplement containing absolutely no additives, fillers or lubricants. All of the ingredients in buttock pills are listed on the FDA's GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe) list. There are no known negative side effects apart from your breasts may also get bigger. But as with any dietary supplement, women with special medical conditions are encouraged to consult their health professional before using butt improvement pills. Perfect Butt should never be used by pregnant or lactating women.

Banishing The Clutter
Over the past few months, I have been gradually (but sternly) banishing all the clutter from our casa. We didn't really have a lot of clutter in the first place (nothing like a two-bed semi for encouraging monastic tidiness), but the clutter that has escaped the general banishment has beaten a hasty retreat to this corner of the spare room:
"Have at you, clutter!", said I, and promptly hastened to Ikea to purchase yet more Expedit, which we assembled with the help of a very pretty assistant:
And then installed on top of the existing Expedit, so we now have a 6 x 9 floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall block of the lovely stuff:
Alice 1, Clutter 0.
Can you tell from my sporting reference that Engerlund just won a World Cup match? I am not exactly a football person myself, if truth be told, but there is some dude driving up and down our street right now honking his horn and bellowing Engerlund, so I figured they must have finally won something. Um, hurrah, I suppose!
So anyway, the final step is to make some kind of fitted cupboard in the corner and then the clutter Will Be No More. Muwahahaha!

You can see all her veins, so wet and shiny! She stretches her lips as she talks about her pink, beautiful mouth, lips so plump and kissable.

At Ardmore, we've been lucky enough to work with CastleCourt on their Christmas campaigns for a number of years. This year, although they still wanted to have something Christmassy and magical, they wanted to try something a little fun too.
We worked closely with our friends at The Picturehouse to create two charming animated commercials. While one focused on Santa's arrival and the other on late night opening, they both communicated the many benefits of shopping at CastleCourt this festive season, including great shopping and handy gift cards.
To compliment the two commercials, the CastleCourt Christmas campaign ran across a multitude of formats including digital, social media, video on demand, outdoor and radio.
Make sure you visit CastleCourt this festive season for the merriest Christmas!

Podcast: Play in new window | Download
The Development Innovation Ventures Program (DIV) at USAID launched in 2010 with a mission to find, test and scale ideas that could radically improve global prosperity. Its key features include crowd sourcing of breakthrough solutions; staged funding to test those solutions; and prioritizing grant proposals based on their cost effectiveness, their use of rigorous evidence to show impact, and their ability to be scaled up over time.
While DIV focuses on international development, its evidence-based, outcome focused grant design has relevance for public leaders in many fields and levels of government. In fact, DIV is one of a small but growing number of federal grant programs using staged funding, also called tiered-evidence grants or innovation funds. Staged funding helps public agencies focus grant dollars on approaches backed by strong evidence, while still encouraging innovative new approaches.
To learn more, we're joined by Jeffrey Brown (@jeffhbrown) who leads DIV at USAID. The interview includes: An overview of DIV; Stage 1 funding and an example related to strengthening the work of frontline health workers in India; Stage 2 funding and an example related to bringing safe power sources to villages in India; Stage 3 funding and an example related to promoting safe drinking water in Kenya; an overview of what it takes to run a staged grant program; and the applicability of DIV's approach to other policy areas.
Web extra: Jeffrey Brown discusses the usefulness of building an rigorous evaluation strategies into grant-funded projects before they are launched, rather than trying to measure impact later on or after the fact. [click here]

The word "elite" is thrown around a little too casually for my taste. His word should be reserved for the very best of the best and not just every player that catches the eye. So when a player turns up that actually possesses an elite skillset it should be very exciting. That is the case for Michigan defensive tackle Maurice Hurst.
When Big Mo is at his best then he's as fast off the line as anybody. And that's not just anyone in college football, that's as fast as the best defensive linemen in the NFL. He can absolutely obliterate the line of scrimmage by either blowing past the opposing guard or submarining his opponent before they can react and create a huge pile up. This burst off the snap has generated a lot of buzz in draft circles and many are considering him a first round and even a top 15 caliber talent.
I'm not ready to buy into that kind of hype. Here are my full thoughts.
Yes, Hurst shows elite burst off the snap and that is a big part of why he's a very good prospect. However, he's inconsistent with his jump. While it is always pretty good, more often than not it isn't dominant. In these cases where he doesn't win off the snap he is much more manageable for several different reasons.
The first reason is his size. Hurst is undersized for an NFL defensive tackle at 6'2" and 280 lbs, and while being a little shorter than most NFL lineman helps him keep good leverage to prevent him from getting pushed back, it also makes it very difficult to overpower opponents to make plays in the backfield.
The second is that Hurst doesn't have many rush moves in his arsenal to work with. He does show a nice push/pull move where he bull rushes his opponent to force them on their heels and then pulls them forward and tosses them aside. This move has shown to be very affective, but it's unclear if it will work in the NFL against bigger, stronger blockers. Other than that he's pretty pedestrian in his pass rush moves.
This combination of weaknesses make me question if Hurst can be disruptive or even effective at the NFL level if he doesn't win off the snap. At least not in terms of being disruptive in the backfield. He'll have to make plays in other ways if he can't get penetration. This is something he's very capable of.
Hurst shows good field awareness and usually knows where the ball is going. In those instances it's running towards his gap, he shows the upper body strength and ability to extend his arms, keep blockers out of his chest and make a tackle. This combined with his ability to keep leverage makes it difficult to run the ball right at him, even when he doesn't win with his burst.
Versatility will also add to his value come draft time. Hurst is probably best suited as a 3-tech defensive tackle in a 4-3 defense. However, despite lacking overall speed and quickness he could also play a defensive end in a 3-4. He's shown the ability to dip his shoulders to where he could provide some pass rush from the outside and he looks comfortable stunting to help open up rushing lanes for the exotic blitz packages.
Overall I'm not sure I can come up with a great player comparison for Hurst. My best bet would be Kansas City defensive end Chris Jones, who also flashed fantastic, though somewhat inconsistent, burst in college. I'd also think that Hurst will be drafted in the same range (37). Don't be shocked if you see him off the board toward the end of the first round, but mid second wouldn't come as a surprise to me either.

Heather Forbes, CDM, CPM, BSM
My connection to birth and midwifery is deeply rooted in the Biodynamic Birth model of care, and informed decision making. The Biodynamic Birth works with the natural rhythms, hormones, and physiology of birth to help bring about the optimal health and experience for mother and baby. I began working as a doula in 2001, which lead me down the path of midwifery.
I attended Birthingway College of Midwifery in Portland, Oregon and graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Midwifery. I fulfilled my lifelong dream and moved to Alaska in 2013. I spend my free time cooking, gardening, practicing yoga, hiking, camping, paddling, recreational dog mushing, and wildcrafting natural medicines.
I strongly believe families have the right to:
- evidence based care
- the ability to make informed choices, and
- to receive compassionate individualized care
There is a midwife for every mother. If you don't feel that 'just right' connection to me I'm more than happy to recommend a fellow midwife to you.

Eureka! You just had the idea of the century. You solved the Riemann Zeta hypothesis, found the perfect cocktail recipe, or discovered a new web concept (something involving videos of kittens) that will make you rich. You want to share your discovery, but you have this creeping doubt: what if someone steals my idea and claims its theirs? Worse yet: what if they claim that I stole the idea from them?
DepotCode allows you to share your ideas, while protecting your Intellectual Property. It's safe, easy and affordable. When you register your document, we make a unique fingerprint of that document and register it to your name. From that moment on, you can prove that you owned the document at the time of registration.
You will receive an online certificate of the file, showing your name and the date and time of registration. Recipients of your document can validate it here, to confirm that it is really yours.
We even provide a QR Code, so your printed documents are protected too. Recipients of the document who have a QR scanning app installed on their phone, can immediately open the DepotCode registration page of your document.
Register your document with DepotCode and hold on to the signed copy! Remember, we don't store your document, so this is up to you. Keep it in a safe place and don't modify it. Now suppose your document shows that you invented Facebook in 2003. Here's how to prove it:
Unfortunately, DepotCode wasn't around in 2003, but thank goodness it is now. Be safe. Protect your document.
Registered .PDF documents are labeled in the top right corner with your DepotCode and QR Code. The label is linked to the page that shows your registration page. The QR Code links to that same page and is useful on printed documents. The label on the front page is slightly larger than those on the following pages.
When you register a source code file, we add a comment, containing a link to your DepotCode registration page, on the first line. We support all commonly used programming languages, including Javascript, Ruby, PHP, Java, and C#, as well as other kinds of languages like HTML, XML, and CSS.
JPEG, GIF and PNG images are marked with a QR Code that links to your DepotCode registration page. The size of the QR Code adapts to the image size. If your image is very small, the QR Code will be omitted. Images in other image formats than the ones listed here will be treated as files of an unknown type (see below).
Any other file types than the ones listed above will be signed, but there will be no visible signature on the document. It's up to you to store the file and keep track of the corresponding DepotCode URL.
Now that you know how it works, go ahead and sign your document for free. It's easy!

I found out a few days ago that my manuscript, Bathsheba Transatlantic, was awarded The Philip Levine Prize in Poetry. Anhingo Press is actually going to publish the book sometime in late Fall of this year. I suppose there must be some form of hope when one enters a contest (otherwise the Lotto might be a better place to invest the $25 reading fee), but at least in my case, my hope didn't mitigate the immense surprise I felt when CSU Fresno called to tell me I'd won. I literally fell to my knees.
I don't believe in the God described in the Judeo-Christian bibles, and I admit little familiarity with other versions. But at that moment I genuinely wanted some higher power to thank. I felt such gratitude and joy! I suppose it is in such extreme moments of emotion that one looks for outside forces. Of course my best friend said that my desire to seek causality outside myself is rooted in my gender. A man would ascribe any such success to their own powers. A woman sees another hand. Maybe.
I did, however, spend hours crafting notes to the teachers and poets who worked with me over the years. I do worship some of them, or at least their work, or at least their work ethic. Perhaps that counts.

text: It often falls to local law enforcement to decide what use of force is reasonable and when officers cross the line. Acceptable conduct can differ depending on where you live. In California, much of the work of police accountability — from the internal investigations to details of the findings — is kept hidden from public view, some of it by state law. There are some who believe the public is not equipped to understand police behavior. But are these secretive laws protecting officers and their public employers from scrutiny? Reporter Annie Gilbertson takes what she's learned about Deputy Gonzalo Inzunza to Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department officials, who promise to review his conduct. Annie does her own review, looking for clues that may point to how officials have determined what level of force is acceptable.

This Galactic place…
sounds so Star Wars-ish. And their encryption/security measures seem, on the surface, designed to keep out the Borg.
Is this for real? Does anyone know any inside information on these folks? There are limits to how much they'll store (10 Gig). But everything else seems really ideal — if it's for real. Anyone have any history with them and/or can vouch for the ownership?

In my previous post, I defined discipleship as imitation and modelling. This is the pattern of discipleship described in the New Testament:
"Therefore I urge you to imitate me. For this reason I am sending to you Timothy, my son whom I love, who is faithful in the Lord. He will remind you of my way of life in Christ Jesus, which agrees with what I teach in every church." (1 Corinthians 4:16, 17)
"We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised." (Hebrews 6:12)
"Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever." (Hebrews 13:7, 8)
"Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ." (1 Corinthians 11:1)
"Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you." (Philippians 3:17)
"For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example…" (2 Thessalonians 3:7ff)
"Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity." (1 Timothy 4:12)
"In everything set them an example by doing what is good." (Titus 2:7)
One of the problems church leaders have with such a pattern is fear of the cult of personality. We look at people who are making disciples, and we accuse them of building their own empire. We can be really scriptural, and point to Paul's concerns, recorded in the early chapters of 1 Corinthians, regarding following men. Of course, we conveniently miss the point that Paul actually planted something in these people's lives; and that Apollos actually watered those things: and that process happens through imitation and modelling. It is all meant to point to God, who alone makes those things grow – but God chooses to work through people. Paul's concern is that the Corinthians have placed a wrong emphasis on the process – just as he is also concerned that they have got their emphasis wrong in relation to spiritual gifts – and not that the thing itself is wrong.
If Paul were writing to my cultural context, I think he'd tackle the same issue from different angles. He would need to address our cultural suspicion of those in positions of authority; our jaded belief that it is not worth looking to anyone as an example – parents, politicians, church leaders – because sooner or later they will only let you down. And he'd have to address the other side of the equation, our reluctance to be considered as a role-model ourselves: it's hard enough to take responsibility for our own lives, and perhaps those of our immediate family, let alone feel any sense of responsibility for anyone else…
He'd also need to address the conscious disconnection, and unconscious connection, between those we look to and how we live: though we are obsessed with celebrities, most of us do not try to live like them directly (that is, there is a disconnection at the level of conscious decision), but over time have our values shaped by their values (that is, there is a connection at the level of subconscious decision).
Discipleship challenges all these cultural issues. To our paralysed inability to come to an internal decision as to the best way forward (e.g. "How am I supposed to deal with my child's bad behaviour?") discipleship holds out someone to come alongside us. To our reluctance to be seen as a role model ourselves, discipleship holds out the possibility that we can learn to live a life that is worth sharing. And in place of conscious disconnections and unconscious connections which leave us doubly disempowered (I can't have the distractions 'they' have; or make life-giving decisions for myself), discipleship holds out conscious connection with life in increasing fullness.

Suffering from an unexpected injury causes physical pain, emotional distress and financial strain on victims. Sometimes, victims are able to receive compensation for lost wages, medical bills and even emotional suffering when these injuries have been caused by someone else.
What Are New Jersey Personal Injury Lawsuits?
Everyone's situation is different, but sometimes an unexpected injury has been directly caused by the negligence of another person or party. In these cases, the negligent person can be held legally and financially responsible in court for the damages caused by their actions. Legal claims for compensation are made through either an insurance claim or a personal injury lawsuit, and the victim is financially restored from the losses they've incurred.
Types of Personal Injury Claims in New Jersey
This comprehensive list explains the most common types of personal injury lawsuits in New Jersey and who the responsible party would be. Injuries arising from these types of claims are caused by the negligence of someone else, so that person is typically held financially responsible for losses.

Angels and Demons: What do we really know about them? by Peter J. Kreeft
May 5, 2009 4 Comments
This is not Dan Brown's book. "Angels and Demons" is a book by Peter Kreeft (Ignatius Press, San Francisco, 1995), which is a summary of his course on "Angels, Devils, Ghosts, and Miracles" at Boston College. Angelogy for Kreeft is a science, with data provided by the Bible and human experience. Kreeft admits that his work in 90 percent unoriginal, for "as medieval philosophers loved to say, even dwarfs can see far if they have the good sense and humility to climb up onto the shoulders of giants–like Moses and Jesus and Augustine and Aquinas and saints and mystics." But most of Kreeft's analysis is taken from the angelic doctor himself, St. Thomas Aquinas.
The book is written as a response to a series of 100 questions. The style is informal, as if you are really in his lecture room hearing a question by a student and Kreeft's informative and sometimes humorous response. I enjoyed reading this little book. I hope you'll enjoy it, too.

I know, I know. I'm super late to this as the month is already half over (which hoooooow? where is my time going???? PLEASE SLOW DOWN THANK YOU), but I still wanted to do a post for Pride Month. Because being queer is something to be celebrated. ♥ And ever since coming out as bi last year, I've made conscious choices to read more queer stories, and to include more queer characters in my own writing. It's not something I ever didn't do before, but I became more proactive about it. Because, honestly? Queerness just makes everything better. And I'm SO here for ALL the books with LGBTQ+ characters.
Books I Loved and Enjoyed
And the whole Beyond series by Kit Rocha. Labels aren't used, but most of the characters are queer. And the books are *so good* so you should absolutely give them a try. The first one, Beyond Shame, is forever free. :D
On My Endless TBR
omg so many I've yet to read! I NEED TO GET ON THIS. Also, if you're looking for more recommendations, I highly suggest taking a leisurely stroll through LGBTQ Reads. This site has MASSIVE book lists that are sorted by representation, genre, age category, and more, so you'll definitely find anything you're looking for. This pride month, try to read at least one book that is LGBTQ+ or has queer characters! And look at that, Autoboyography is free to read on rivetedlit.com. I'm SO excited because I've heard fantastic things about this book and have wanted to read it for awhile now, so I started it this weekend. 🙌
Hey guys, what are some of YOUR favorite queer reads? Did you love/enjoy any of the ones that I did? Let's talk! :)
