The discovery of the first electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational wave signal has generated follow-up observations by over 50 facilities world-wide, ushering in the new era of multi-messenger astronomy. In this paper, we present follow-up observations of the gravitational wave event GW170817 and its electromagnetic counterpart SSS17a/DLT17ck (IAU label AT2017gfo) by 14 Australian telescopes and partner observatories as part of Australian-based and Australian-led research programs. We report early- to late-time multi-wavelength observations, including optical imaging and spectroscopy, mid-infrared imaging, radio imaging, and searches for fast radio bursts. Our optical spectra reveal that the transient source emission cooled from approximately 6 400 K to 2 100 K over a 7-d period and produced no significant optical emission lines. The spectral profiles, cooling rate, and photometric light curves are consistent with the expected outburst and subsequent processes of a binary neutron star merger. Star formation in the host galaxy probably ceased at least a Gyr ago, although there is evidence for a galaxy merger. Binary pulsars with short (100 Myr) decay times are therefore unlikely progenitors, but pulsars like PSR B1534+12 with its 2.7 Gyr coalescence time could produce such a merger. The displacement (~2.2 kpc) of the binary star system from the centre of the main galaxy is not unusual for stars in the host galaxy or stars originating in the merging galaxy, and therefore any constraints on the kick velocity imparted to the progenitor are poor.
This research was prompted by the discovery of 35 new or candidate symbiotic stars during a targeted search in the Local Group of Galaxies. A catalogue of a further 200 or so such objects has now been compiled. Many of them could be identified with counterparts in the POINT-AGAPE Catalogue. However, information in the Catalogue is limited to position, brightness and possible period, and light-curves are not available. The poster presented an example of a light-curve of a symbiotic star retrieved from original Point-Agape Catalogue data.
The unsatisfactory present state of the classification system for WN stars is summarised and the three dimensions of a new system are presented and justified.
Deep Hβ narrowband and broadband images of M3 have been electronically blinked to search for cataclysmic binaries. Tests of the method on a known, faint cataclysmic enable us to set limits on the sensitivity of the technique. No bright (MB < 6) emission-line (equivalent width > 12 Å) cataclysmic binaries exist in M3 between 4 and 30 core radii from the center. Low luminosity globular X-ray sources could still be weak-lined (E.W. < 12 Å) and bright (MB ≃ +5 like some old novae) or strong-lined (E.W. ≃ 60 Å) and faint (MB > 7 like dwarf novae).
We explore the bright central diffuse objects of the closest visible giant HII regions 30 Dor (LMC) and NGC 3603 (Galaxy), with the aid of CCD imagery in 1′ seeing. Both central objects are interpreted as dense cluster cores composed of normal stars with masses ranging up to ≈ 100 M⊙. Each object appears to contain at least one close massive binary. Being significantly denser, the core of NGC 3603 seems to be dynamically more evolved than the core of 30 Dor.
Surveys of the Galaxy for Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars are mostly based on objective prism searches, and are generally complete to only about 13th visual magnitude. We are using direct narrowband and broadband Schmidt plates to survey large areas of the southern Milky Way for WR stars to 17-18th magnitude. We expect to find more than 50 new WR stars. The newly detected stars should be among the most distant and/or reddened known in the Galaxy. The survey is also designed to test the completeness of previous bright WR star surveys, and thus to help settle debates over the Initial Mass Function of the most massive stars. We have now located 13 new WR stars in a 40 square degree region in Carina where 24 WR stars were already known. A 25% incompleteness in detection of WR stars as close as 2-3 kpc is suggested.
Although close binaries are believed to be of importance in the dynamical evolution of globular clusters, searches for such binaries have produced mostly negative results, aside from x-ray sources. Two dwarf novae which are possible cluster members are known (Margon and Downes 1983) and two classical nova candidates have been found. The crowded field around the nova observed in 1860 close to the center of M80 makes ground-based recovery of that star impossible with present techniques. Here we report on our attempt to recover the star which erupted in 1938 about 30″ (0.8 core radii) from the center of M14.
A HST-wfpc2 survey of Galactic Wolf-Rayet stars was undertaken over a five year period, in an effort to discover new close visual companions, tight clusters, and/or association memberships. In total, 61 Galactic WR stars were observed, with nine objects being members of the subclasses WC8 and WC9, which are associated with dust production. For these nine, we present images of WR 11, WR 48a, WR 69, WR 70, WR 81, and WR 92. We refer to Wallace et al. (2002) for discussion of WR 98a, WR 104, and WR 112. Overall, we find for separations of approximately ≥ 150 mas, that the binary/association properties of the WC8/WC9 sample are statistically indistinguishable from the overall WR population. These statistics are limited, however, by the small numbers of each WR subclass observed.
We present very preliminary results of a spectroscopic survey of all known 47 WNL stars in the LMC.
Star clusters are remarkably efficient (relative to the field) at making type Ia supernovae candidates: very short period, massive double-white-dwarf stars and giant-white dwarf binaries. The high frequency of these systems is the result of dynamical encounters between (mostly) primordial binaries and other cluster stars. Orbital hardening rapidly drives the degenerate binaries to periods under ∼ 10 hours. Gravitational radiation emission and mergers then produce supra-Chandrasekhar objects in less than a Hubble time.
We also find that free-floating planets can remain bound to a star cluster for much longer than was previously assumed: of the order of the cluster half-mass relaxation timescale as opposed to the crossing-time. The planets in our N-body study are of Jupiter mass and are initially placed in circular orbits of between 0.05 and 50 AU about a parent star whose mass is chosen from a realistic initial mass function. This result is important in the context of the preliminary detection of a population of free-floating sub-stellar objects in the globular cluster M22.
We have completed a direct narrow-band/broad-band Schmidt-plate survey of large areas of the southern Milky Way for new Wolf-Rayet stars as faint as 19th b magnitude. The 31 newly detected stars in the completed survey are amongst the reddest and/or most distant known in the Galaxy. We have obtained spectra of all candidate WR stars in the 22 fields stretching from l = 282° to l = 341° in longitude, and Δb = 3.5° in latitude, covering about 180 square degrees. We also observed two isolated Milky Way fields centered at l = 0° and l = 8°. Eighteen new WR stars are reported here for the first time. Combined with the 13 new WR stars we have already reported in Carina, our list of 31 new Galactic WR stars reaches 3–4 magnitudes fainter than previous surveys. Thirteen of the 18 new WR stars reported here are of subtype WN, while five are of subtype WC. Our new WR stars clearly demonstrate an increasing WN/WC number ratio with increasing Galactocentric distance.
We present preliminary results of our HST-WFPC2 pc-survey of Wolf-Rayet stars. Initiated in 1996, the goal was to discover new companions to, and cluster/association memberships of, known Galactic WR stars. From these results, Niemela et al. (1998) have already established a firm link between non-thermal radio emission and the location of binary wind-collision zones for WR 146 (confirming radio data of Dougherty et al. 1996) and WR 147 (confirming radio and IR data of Williams et al. 1997; see also Williams, these Proceedings), and confirmed the presence of a binary companion for WR 86 (listed by Jeffers et al. 1963). Here, for the first time, we present new information on WR38, WR38a, and WR 104.
Close binaries are widely believed to exist in large numbers in the cores of globular clusters. If present, these binaries are critical sources and sinks of energy that drive the dynamical evolution of their host clusters. I report on HST searches for binaries (based on variability) in the outskirts and cores of several globular clusters; dwarf novae should be particularly easy to find. Dense and loose clusters have been thoroughly searched on timescales ranging from minutes to years. Detailed simulations demonstrate that virtually all binaries with M < 8, amplitudes > 0.1 mag and periods of 2–20 hours should have been found. This includes virtually all known contact binaries. At least 1/3 of all dwarf novae present in several globulars should also have been seen (very easily!) in eruption at M = 4 − 6.
Simple tidal capture theory predicts that dozens of interacting binaries should have been found in our searches; the observed number is typically one or two objects per cluster. Unless tidal capture cataclysmic binaries are rapidly destroyed, ejected, or much fainter than most of their Galactic counterparts, we must conclude that very close binaries in globular cores are rare, and that their total influence on cluster dynamical evolution is less than currently claimed.
A U-B search to 21st magnitude in a 1°×1° region centered on the best position for the Korean nova of 1437 has revealed no unique candidate. Instead, we find 7 faint UV-bright stars with CV-like emission lines. The implied space density is two orders of magnitude higher than the classical space density for CV's.
In light of recent N-body simulations performed using the GRAPE-6 special-purpose hardware we discuss the role of the star cluster environment in producing unusual stellar populations and the possibility that stars labelled exotic in the solar neighbourhood may be commonplace within star clusters.
The results of photometric and spectroscopic observations of dwarf novae are presented. The data were obtained during an international program of multiwavelength observations, held in 1986 February at several observatories, of dwarf novae during the first and subsequent days of outburst. During the campaign numerous dwarf novae were monitored in order to catch them in outburst. Preliminary results and analysis of some objects are reported elsewhere. A total of 30 dwarf novae were observed in the northern and southern hemispheres. Among them 37% were caught in outburst, including 10% on the rise to outburst and 17% in decline. Photometric observations were carried out in the UBVRI system and colour indexes were calculated.
High resolution imaging observations of the core of the globular cluster 47 Tucanae with the Faint Object Camera (FOC) on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) reveal a very high surface density of blue stragglers. This discovery supports the hypothesis that they are among the most massive objects in globular clusters, concentrated in the core by mass segregation. Taken together with the presence in 47 Tue of an X-ray source, eleven millisecond and binary pulsars, and two high-velocity stars ejected out of the core, these observations favour the scenario that blue stragglers are either mergers formed through coalescent collisions, or binaries formed through close encounters.
A search to continuum magnitude B ∼ 21.5 (M
∼ −3) using a narrow band filter at λ4670å and a wide B-band filter has revealed 21 Wolf-Rayet star candidates in about half the giant Sb galaxy M31. Some weak-line WR stars, particularly WN subtypes, may have escaped detection. These numbers are compatible with the total number of luminous (i.e. massive) stars in M31. Eighteen of twenty confirmed candidate stars in M31 lie in the direction of 0B associations in the ring of prominent star formation 5–16 kpc from the center.

Remains identified as those of Texas teen missing since 1997
HOUSTON – Human remains found in a rural pasture on the fringes of Houston have been identified as those of a 17-year-old girl who disappeared in 1997.
The Harris County medical examiner's office on Friday identified the remains as those of Jessica Cain, who disappeared after dining with friends.
The remains were found March 18 after investigators dug for more than three weeks in a pasture pointed out by 56-year-old William Reece. He's already serving a 60-year sentence for kidnapping one woman.
Reece also led authorities to remains identified as those of 20-year-old college student Kelli Cox, who had been missing from Denton in North Texas since 1997.
Investigator Audrey Carter of the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences says the remains were identified through DNA analysis.

There's nothing worse than being absolutely broke in Vana Diel, the other day I bought a few new scrolls and some fishing gear and SHIZZAM I'm broke! I had around 7000 gill up for sale at the Kazham auction house, but it just sat there for days, even with my competative prices they just weren't selling. I also had an assortment of fish in my bazaar but no one needs to buy fish on the tropical island paradise of Kazham when all they need to do is cast a line.In an act of despiration I pulled all 7 dozen fish off the auction house, pawned off the crap in my bazaar to the local M&P shop and bought my airship ticket back to Jeuno.
Once there I discovered I couldn't even afford the taxes to place items up for sale at the Jeuno auction house! I headed down the busy streets of Jeuno to the Chocobo stables, I had just enough to rent a Chocobo. With my bundles of fish along with all my other equipment I headed back to my homeland, the majestic Bastok. It felt like a thousand moons had passed since last I walked through the grand marketplace of Bastok and felt the cool breeze of the Bastore Sea, I looked forward to going home.
I rushed across the dusty plains of North Gustaberg and as the gate to Bastok market rose over the horizon an eery quiet blanketed the land, there was an un nerving inactivity about.
"Had the city been overtaken by the foul Quadov?"
I pondered my absence, had I deserted my people, left them when they needed my magic most. As I passed thru the gates of Bastok I half expected to see the city in ruins, I passed thru the tunnel entrance and my worries washed away as I gazed upon the shops and white towers of the , I strode towrds Fire water circle and the auction house. The streets were empty except for the random passerby and the NPC's....Bastok was a ghost town .
After placing my fish on the Bastok AH I headed to my Mog house, ACK! cob webs everywhere, and dust an inch thick, the afternoon sun cast a warm glow in my Mog house thru the film on the window. I spent the better part of the afternoon with moogle cleaning my mog house.
After a little synthing and gardening I went fishing over in Port Bastok, then I decided to check out the Koroloko tunnel and see if I could make it thru to the dessert Krog has been soloing in for the past month or so.

China needs to spend about 100,000 yuan (US$16,272) for each rural resident to ensure equal rights and privileges under its massive urbanization program, the official Xinhua news agency reported Sunday, citing a government study. The amount is the cost of giving each of the country's millions of rural dwellers the same rights and privileges as their urban counterparts once they move into the cities. The survey, led by Gu Shengzu, a member of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress and vice chairman of the Central Committee of China National Democratic Construction Association, was part of the so-called citizenization program of the government. It covers healthcare, retirement and other social security benefits, social management, subsidized housing and education, the report said.

Pastor Doug: Well let me give you a Bible definition. You know I don't mind people's short questions. What I worry about is Manuel is my long answers ?
Caller: I didn't really give you a chance to answer.
Pastor Doug: That's ok. The Bible says sin is the transgression of the Law. There's no law that tells us not to work on the first day and so obviously, it's not a sin. See what I'm saying?
Caller: We're not commanded to?
Pastor Doug: There's no commandment in the Bible to honor or worship on the first day. A lot of lovely people do it – and you can worship God every day of the week – but there is nowhere in the Bible the first day is called the Sabbath.
Caller: My thing is, you know, if I'm required to work on that day. That's my question basically.
Pastor Doug: If you're required to work on the first day?
Caller: Yeah – if it's not a sin.
Pastor Doug: Well it's certainly not a sin, because like I said, there's no Bible injunction.
Caller: But if I don't work, am I under condemnation?
Pastor Doug: No, No. If you decide to take off two days because you need a day for the family, that doesn't mean it's a sin either. It's just not a Bible issue is what I'm saying.
Caller: It's the way businesses operate you understand where they give you two days off and….
Pastor Doug: Yeah. You know, we have a lesson that deals with that a little bit. If you'd like it, we'd be happy to send it to you for free.
Caller: All right – could you give me the name of it because I probably already have it.
Pastor Doug: Well it's called "Things Are Not As They Appear".
Caller: If it's one of the study guides, I have them all. I have all 27 of them.
Pastor Doug: Yes. You have them all? Ah then if you read those, you'll be smarter than me, ok?
Caller: All right.
Pastor Doug: Ok.
Caller: God bless.
Pastor Doug: God bless you.

Worship In Lament
Brian taught us what it looks like to worship God in our lament, and we looked to the story found in Job as encouragement. While Job experienced great loss, physical ailments and grief- never in his questioning or living lament before God did he sin. We asked the question, "How can we lament well?" and thus declare when all else fails that God is enough- He what we chase after.
Scripture: Job 19

In a 1:1 at this year's O'Reilly Design Conference, Tony Fadell* explained to Tim O'Reilly that Nest had a very practical nascence. It solved a prevailing frustration - Tony wanted to be able to remotely set the thermostat in his home so as to not lose money on energy he wasn't using. This example of answering a frustration with a well designed solution has seen other products to great success - the iPod (take your music wherever you go!), the Palm Pilot (check my emails when I'm away from my desk!).
Takeaway: for the designer interested in building something new, solve something that pains you.
For Project EnRG purposes, I took a look at my life and thought - what's causing me the most stress? And, how can I solve for it?
To explain what worries me, please endure my stream of consciousness download:
[Worry 1] did you know that, according to the CDC, 1 in 8 women will experience postpartum depression (PPD)? The symptoms of PPD can be debilitating and overwhelmingly pervasive. How can I avoid it? Risk factor #1 = stress. Okay. How can I mitigate stress? We'll come back to that.
[Worry 2] did you know that lots of people have lots of opinions on how to nourish a baby in the first year of life? I went with the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendation to nurse. I'd like to be able to continue this now that I'm back to work. How can I keep supply up? Risk factor for low milk supply = stress. Stress, you say? There's a theme here.
There's many an article offering the panacea for stress. They all, pretty much, come to the same conclusion: eat a healthy diet to nourish your body, drink water, stop to smell the roses and take a walk.
Left to my own devices - I don't always make the best choices (see picture).
I admit, today's lunch was worse than most. I live in SF - land of food delivery. A quarter of my diet is supplied by Sprig (I LOVE YOU SPRIG!). However, that just solves for a piece of the problem. What about breakfast, dinners? Budget consciousness? Food planning for my family? What about input about nutrients I may not have considered (or even heard about) that could help me even more?
A problem statement emerges:
I want a low-effort app that considers my needs as a postpartum mom and connects me with services, products and advice that will help sustain me and my family.
And, just like that, Project EnRG was born.
Next up: Is this a problem that anyone else cares about? Let's ask.
*The sit down between Fadell & O'Reilly is here and worth a view.

In The Concept of Mind (1949), Ryle dismisses the Cartesian view as the fallacy of "the ghost in the machine," arguing that the mind—the ghost—is really just the intelligent behaviour of the body.

Women's Wednesday- Ayodele Holas
This week's Women's Wednesday, I will be featuring Ayodele Holas of Zipette Dresses! She is one of the most talented, creative and all around beautiful people I have ever met. Zipette Dresses are amazing forward thinking dresses that un-zips at the waist. All of her dresses are interchangeable with both styles and color. They can also be styled with other pieces in your child's wardrobes. On top of this Ayodele is also a teacher in the in Art STart program and a most important she is the mom of three gorgeous kids.
When I asked Ayodele what her biggest challenges are being a mom of three and owning her business she states, "Trying to get everything done, while trying to spend quality time with my family." She states to help her balance this work home life, she simply closes the door to her studio to change her focus from work to family.
Her beautiful dresses can be purchased on her website www.zipettedress.com and are sold in Toronto at Syye Ssutu Boutique at the corner of Augusta and Dundas. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next.
My goal with Women's Wednesday is to stop competing with other women and start celebrating and cherishing our accomplishments. We are all on this journey and for me, it feels like a roller coaster most days. If you need help, ask for it; if you have help to give; give it! #womenwednesday#womensupportingwomen#torontophotographer#michelecrockettphotography#zipettedresses

Haraway Revisited
Reading Donna Haraway's "A Manifesto for Cyborgs" gets me to thinking (again!) about the importance of language. While language has been important since "Aristotle still ruled," it has taken on an increased significance since the beginning of the move from atoms to bits. The language of western civilizations has been interwoven with the dualities of ideology, since before Plato's myth of the divided human. This "hierarchical dualism" has always privileged its creator (Man), has been naturalized into mythology, and continues to influence our conceptions of our own bodies and how we place them in the world. Our epistemology and ontology are centered the narratives through which we live and find meaning: mythological narratives like Paradise and the Fall do not bring a wanted universality, but exclude with a façade of inclusion. The myth of Man is an exclusive club — an identity that seeks to control and dominate even in the face of its own demise: the cyborg.
Haraway's project calls for a re-vision or re-figuration of not only our physical bodies, but our identities as humans.
The signifier "human" carries too much of the baggage of historical inequality to be useful anymore. Instead, the cyborg — while still operating in the humanist myth — penetrates boundaries that "human" cannot encompass. The cyborg can rewrite the body and our conception of it in order to break down exclusive identities and open up new networks through lines of affinity. We have not chosen the cultural myths that control us, but micro-processing technology has the potential, first, to alter these myths in a politicized, networked narrative, and second, recode the revisions onto chimera of the cyborg body in an act of defiant struggle. We are at a crucial time in history, even more now than when Haraway wrote the manifesto in 1985.
We now, more than ever before, conceptualize our bodies in relation to our technologies, and micro-processing technology has led the way. Our bodies are becoming less the sacred shrines and more a gestalt of biomolecular codes that we will soon have the ability to recode into any form we choose. When the word (or gene signifier) becomes the physical object, we have gotten into the inner workings of the machine — its code.
Step aside, Evolution; we're taking over, for better or for worse.
Yes, it could get worse: everyday we hear scenarios of Big-Brother dystopia, but it seems to me that the technology belongs just as much (if not more) to the individual hacker and cracker as it does to the hegemonic software giant. The giant corporations of the last century will topple under the networked defiance of the cyborgs who continue to break their codes and transgress their boundaries. They say trading music online is illegal. OK. That hasn't stopped it. Microsoft is developing new DRM software. OK. That will last a week. The technology is becoming decentralized, open to reproduction and replication. The digital bit cannot be controlled the same way as the analog atom. The Big Boys are learning that lesson, but not fast enough to save them.
Haraway's manifesto is still seminal (excuse the word) to the study of new media. Science fiction is becoming the new reality. The dialectic of last century is tired. We need to grow beyond the human in order to get to the really difficult questions and answers. Why is it that many still insist in rehashing the same old issues, like abortion? This issue is unsolvable using the language of hierarchical dualism. The only way we will move beyond the current controversies is to no longer indulge in their language: what progress have the notions of "good" and "evil" made for us lately? If they were ever useful, that use has been obfuscated under a blanket of familiarity only patriarchs like our presidents and priests use to hide their own sordid affairs. "Good" and "evil" are about as useful as "human." Shouldn't we leave them behind?
While we cannot leave our past entirely, we can choose not to let it control what we can become. I think that one of Haraway's main points here is that we must understand the thing that controls us so that it does not follow us into our digital lives. If the cyborg is an oppositional strategy, first we have to know what it is we oppose. Haraway is not opposed to community; on the contrary, she insists on its importance. Language is the location of meaning: in both the virtual and the real — or perhaps more useful terms would be the bit and the atom. While language is a nebulous, imperfect, and misunderstood arena, it stands central to our struggle for affinity. "Identity" must be understood as a strategic artifact of the past that excludes through naming; affinity supports communication from the margins and includes all voices by allowing us to be alike in our difference. It celebrates what Haraway calls "cyborg imagery" that resists totalizing narratives and allows for the reconstruction of the body free from those narratives by our own volition.
Haraway allows that we cannot escape the domination of language, yet she proposes a domination based on volition and choice, not one based on stories of a totalizing ideology of the One — an autonomous, powerful, God. In this dualistic discourse, the other is preferable: "to be multiple, without clear boundaries, frayed, insubstantial." While this notion is scary, it is also potentially liberating, but not without its dangers. Is this blasphemy, as Haraway suggests? Is the "human" too sacred a figuration to mess with? What will this do to our humanistic endeavors of morality and ethics? Philosophy? Science? Religion? Art? Even these could be lost, as many other critics predict. What is so important to make us cling to the idea of "human"?
Are we ready to move on?

Most of the material that I've created using my DAW of choice (Reason) has been 'composed' by ear. I either play or program the parts using my various input devices (keyboards, guitars, microphones, etc...) All of these parts are assembled one by one, layering and intertwining each one into what is hopefully an aesthetically pleasing whole. Basically, I have been composing and performing at the same time.
Recently, I've taken on the notion of composing on the written page prior to letting loose on my equipment. I've designed score paper with 12 staves in MSPublisher and each time I start a project I print out 5 or so sheets and use just my ear (as much as possible) to come up with the parts.
I find that this way of doing things does take more time but there are benefits, here's some of them:
- The 'zen' of composing by ear puts me in a state where I come up with ideas that I wouldn't have otherwise.
- I find that the flow of the music I come up with is more 'agile' - that sections can change from one to another more adroitly.
- By analyzing the relationship of the parts, I can come up with more intriguing interplay between them.
- I come up with a more polished product quicker, that doesn't require as much editing in-session.
I still think there's a place for spontaneous generation of parts - there are ideas that can only come from that way of doing things, but revisiting the process of using standard notation for all of the parts is an arrow that I will keep in my quiver for the foreseeable future.
Here's a couple examples of some tunes that I wrote by writing them out.

CAN THO (VNS) — The Can Tho Buddhist Shangha on Saturday opened the Southern Truc Lam Zen Monastery after a year of construction.
The monastery, covering a four-hectare area in My Khanh Commune, Phong Dien District in the Cuu Long (Mekong) River Delta province of Can Tho, was built in the Vietnamese style of architecture with ornate detailing inspired by the Ly and Tran dynasties.
Alongside the main worshipping hall, the monastery also features a nine-storey tower, a 500-seat grand meeting hall.
It is now the biggest monastery in the Mekong Delta.
The monastery follows the Truc Lam Yen Tu, a Vietnamese Zen sect, which was founded by King-Monk Tran Nhan Tong (1258-1308), who was also the founder of the Truc Lam Monastery 700 years ago.
After defeating Mongol invaders, the king renounced his throne at the age of 35 and spent the rest of his life on Yen Tu Mountain, which is located in the northern coastal province of Quang Ninh.
During the period, the King-Monk worked to unify different sects of Vietnamese Buddhism into Vietnamese Zen Buddhism.
The Southern Truc Lam Zen Monastery was built using a total capital of VND145 billion (about US$7 million), which was mainly donated by Buddhist followers from across the country. — VNS

Taylor Swift Opens Up 'Reputation Tour' Dress Rehearsal, Visits Fan In Hospital
- by Claire Allen
- in Culture&Arts
- — May 7, 2018
The young girl was in a tragic accident earlier this year, and she has been in Phoenix hospital ever since, recovering from severe burns. "She wanted to tell Taylor the difference she's making in her recovery". However, McCune has used Swift's music as inspiration and way to help her get through the excruciating treatments.
Lilly said Isabella was "shocked, ' "speechless" and 'so happy" over the visit from the singer.
Oh, and they got to watch Swift run through her upcoming show.
She said: "Her parents came too and they were the sweetest people, and it meant so much to my husband and me as parents". The singer spent 20 minutes with Isabella, took photos with her, her family, the hospital staff, gave her signed tour memorabilia, and gave her a handwritten note.
Patriots reportedly had interest in trading up to get Baker Mayfield
However, the Browns weren't the only team that believed the 2017 Heisman Trophy victor was worthy of a top overall selection. According to Mayfield's agent, Jack Mills , the Patriots were poised to trade up to the No. 2 position to draft Mayfield.
She even signed McCune's journal, writing, "Isabella!"
"When she was leaving, my daughter asked for a hug and Taylor turned around and said, 'Absolutely - I didn't want to hurt you.' They hugged and it was so heartfelt". I knew it meant a lot to Isabella'. She hoped to be able to be well enough to see her idol's concert in Glendale this coming Tuesday, but her doctors refused. 'We have so much respect for them and how they raised her'.
Isabella has undergone 11 operations, including skin grafting on 50 per cent of her body, after she was severely burned in a fire pit explosion on St Patrick's Day (17Mar18). And throughout her ordeal, the youngster has been cheered by listening to her favourite songs by the "Shake It Off" hitmaker.
Taylor Swift's latest tour of mega-stadiums across the globe kicks off Tuesday in Phoenix, so she used her last warm-up as an opportunity to bring some fun and warmth to local foster kids.

Cory began practicing law in 1995 with Mundell, Odlum & Haws in San Bernardino, California, where he primarily litigated commercial and employment-related disputes. In 1998, he moved to Washington, D.C., and added environmental law and regulatory compliance to his practice while pursuing graduate degrees and teaching at The George Washington University Law School and the University of Maryland. Cory returned to southern California in June 2002, and his practice now balances small/family-owned business law with public-interest and government-accountability litigation.
Cory's two favorite pastimes are scuba diving and traveling to remote places around the world (hopefully to scuba dive).

If we do send phone/email/name as properties in our Segment events, how would it be stored?
Our data is encrypted in transit/at rest. We just need an anonymous user ID to tie to a customer, so it's not necessary to send us a name/email/phone. If you are using Segment to activate the SDK, it's completely optional to send us that data, but it's up to Segment to determine which data is sent to us.
Our typical recommendation is to do a direct installation of the Taplytics SDK side by side with Segment to ensure you have the most up-to-date version and to have more precise control over exactly which data is sent to Taplytics. Check out this guide for more info on the side by side implementation!

It is important you take a quick look at the overview and then the correct before using the site or you will go wrong !!
There are two free programs on this website. The first is the scrambler which is a web proxy where the server is both unaware to whom it is serving each page.
The second is an onion network where every single part of the network runs in the browser (other than initial peer finding, but peers then are swapped randomly between other peers using existing connections to signal new peers) including the relays and exit nodes, and stochastic scrambling algorithms. The Onion network operates as a flash network where nodes are transitory and keys are shared with spare paths meaning it can survive as an onion network in an environment where peers may only exist for mere seconds, as the browser. Other onion networks may be able to be used from a browser but the entire thing of this one bar initial peer discovery runs within a chrome browser. It runs as a reciprocal network and almost pure P2P network where each user takes other roles for other users as relays and exit nodes. The server only runs to block bad peers and moniter their actions. It also functions as a web proxy within the browser for the user as with the first program.
It works as a web proxy where our server fetches the web page and serves it to you Within a restricted iframe which intercepts all network requests but with some key differences to others:
Usually WebRTC uses server infrastructure to perform the handshake and connect clients like so:
However the scrambler clients then uses the connections given by the server as paths to exchange the data to establish additional channels.
These new channels are then used to signal new channels. The server is unaware of who is connected to whom and the paths through which requests are routed.
This means that when you use the scrambler program my server has no way of finding out who originated each request as we cannot know which client is connected to which as the algorithms are stochastic. We can keep and publish logs if we had to. They are useless. The problem is that many proxies or VPN providers can be hacked into or forced to secretly record and hand over logs. If history has taught us anything it is that anything can be leaked. It is better that the data is never even generated in the first place.
Issues hosts suffer from such as being forced to secretly or openly maintain logs by law or even being dishonest or being hacked is not an issue since the server itself is provably unable to determine the final destination of any request yet this is done without any violation of any law. We thus will generate and pubish our logs from the scrambler since this will prove our program to be working properly
When you connect you are given a set of connections as represented in the below diagram where you are the client and the connections are webRTC connections.
The other nodes ( represented as circles ) are other users who are also connected clients. All further connections beyond the initial set of connections in the above graph are created by peers signalling new connections amongst themselves.
This network functions through a reciprocal arrangement where each user also takes roles in the paths of other users. Every user can take any role in the path of any other user. There are various additional webrtc connections then created between peers so that the initial set of connections of a user look like this:
The requests are routed bidirectionally using the onion routing algorithm with the symmetric algorithm AES-CBC used encrypt/decrypt in the chain along the path ( client, relay 1, relay 2 and pseudoExit) with only the last node called the pseudoExit node seeing the request. The last node then fetches the request and sends it back. They encryption keys are given by the server as per the initial diagram.
The reason for the additional connections is so that the network can handle disconnects and reform a path along which to send the requests and responses.
The keys are shared to the nodes visually above and below them so that they can be used should the initial routes fail. This means that three nodes will hold a copy of each key at each time other than the client
The reason that Onion routed p2p networks have not been done fully with the browser before because The key problem faced in this scenario where the whole network is run within a browser is the short lived nature of connections. There are several key differences within this netowrk to other onion networks such as the transitory nature of the nodes and paths.
The clients also run a hiding algorithm which swaps the initial nodes given in the last position nso that the server is unaware of even the initial paths.
If we we start with a set of nodes such as below:
Should node E disconnect then D detects this and tells A to run a rerouting algorithm where it becomes part of the main route and recreates a new spare sharing its key leaving a network looking as so:
The algorithm can be run any number of times. If node A now leaves the network this algorithm will run again resulting in a set of connections represented by the following graph
If we rearrange this we can see that the graph contains all of the connections of our original graph, although with the multiplexing of one connection.
Governments occasionally bother those running TOR exit nodes by mistake. The sheer quantities of traffic you are likely to be serving is a microscopic fraction (consisting of about as many requests on average as you yourself made so) of that served by even the smallest TOR exit node or relay. The cases of Governments accidentally bothering users I believe will be vanishingly rare
So for a wider understanding of WebRTC just google it. It's a technology that allows to browser tab to connect and communicate to each another without the need of a server. To establish the connection a third-party must swap some initial data in a handshake exchange some requisite data. The initial connections created by this appilcation our server does this but then for further connections then the existing connections them self signal the new connections.
Onion routing is a technique for sending messages in which a message is encrypted several times with different keys, and passed through a chain in which a single layer of encryption is decrypted leaving the plain message only in the final node. It is widely used in anonymous online communication systems. A more comprehensive explanation can be found here: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/what-is-onion-routing-exactly-makeuseof-explains/
It is a security rule which is run in browsers which prevents the fetching of certain types of rescources from different domains than that of the current website the browser is showing. This doesn't apply within browser add-ons, and doesn't run when browsers are run within mobile applictaions. It can also be disabled by running a browser extension such as "cors toggle" or by starting the browser from the command line with a disable web security flag but I decided it was easier to recommend a browser add-on.

Attachment & the Developing Brain
Date: August 14th, 2019
Time: 8:45am-12:00pm
CEUs: 3.0
CEU Type(s): Social Work
Psychiatry is still unclear about where mental illness comes from, however some important clues emerge from the literature on attachment. Since at least half of all mental illnesses show up by the age of fifteen, the experience of the child and their developing brain is an area of intense focus in psychology. This class exposes the learner to how attachment has been studied and the current conclusions about how an infant's experience of attachment affects their neurodevelopment risk for mental health problems as an adolescent and adult.

First Met: In Aquamarine
Status: Dating, Friends, Boyfriend and Girlfriend, Allies; Aqua is in love with him and Raymond likes her.
This is the romantic relationship between Raymond and Aquamarine. They first met in the film, Aquamarine.She fell in love with him at first sight, but it took him a bit longer to develop romantic feelings for her. They had some obstacles along the way while dating, particularly Cecilia. By the end of the film, they are currently boyfriend and girlfriend and putting their relationship on hold being she had to swim back into the ocean for a little bit. It can be assumed that Aqua swam back for Raymond some time after the events in the first film. After all, they aren't Star-Crossed lovers anymore. They have the ability to see and be with each other now that all of their obstacles were destroyed.

I'm due for a dental appointment soon. It's a visit that doesn't have to fill you with trepidation these days – it's not even a painful experience, just painfully expensive. At our dentist's office, the reception area – it's not called a waiting room anymore – is superbly and tastefully decorated in leather and linen club chairs and sofas with up-to-date and interesting magazines handily spread across antique coffee tables. No more the aged copies of Readers' Digest, sticky and dog-eared from hundreds of germy maulings. Road and Track, Garden and Gun and Southern Living, all crisp and new, beckon amid the ormolu trimmings of the furniture. There's even a bookcase with important-looking tomes if you think you're going to tarry a while. An inviting walkway beckons you to sleek, modern open rooms – no doors here – decorated in relaxing, dark hues and windows overlooking the treetops. The dental hygienist, a relative newcomer to the trade, is as well schooled in up-selling the services of the firm as any car dealership employee in the "rust and dust" department. All this as you lay defenselessly recumbent in a machine that they still refer to as a chair. It's no such thing. It will bend and stretch you to be able to watch the ceiling-mounted television while she tries to find as many ways to relieve you of your earnings. All this, with a mouth full of probing accouterments while they engage you in conversation. Then the dental assistant comes in for backup before the dentist does whatever is necessary to fill the coffers of the growing practice. The exit, through 'Billing' allows no protest from a numbed mouth that will send coffee cascading over your shirtfront for the next hour. The old days were very different. In the '50s, our dentist's waiting room and office were once her front parlor and a bedroom at the top of the stairs. The trip from one to the other was as gloomy as a trip to the gallows, pain being as sure a part of the looming procedures. Her house was a double-fronted Victorian edifice, as suited to any horror movie as Stephen King could conjure. The wide and heavy front door creaked like voices from the basement. The house smelled faintly of bayberry but did nothing to alleviate the sense of impending doom. My twin brother and I were bribed into visits with the promise of a Swiss bun from the ABC Bakery around the corner. She had an assistant, a woman with whom she had lived for many years and akin to Nora Clegg, the Russian KGB lady from the James Bond novels. She assisted by running the aging machinery that whizzed and made grinding noises from a belt-driven drill, operated by an accelerator advanced or slowed by her foot. In amongst the cream colored devices was a small round, white sink, a spout with running water for the disposal of the rinse which sat in a cut glass with pink water that effervesced with the addition of a little tablet. It tasted of the dentist's perfume that came as close as her sparsely black-haired chin when she probed with one of those little mirrors and that sharp proboscis that stuck in your gums or found that dreaded exposed nerve that triggers your fingernails into your thighs. Extractions were done there and then. Syringes the size of baby bottles had needles like drainpipes. The only thing worse was the crunching as the tooth made its exit with pliers that looked like they came from my garage. All that pain and suffering came for "free" on the National Health Service, but on reflection, perhaps today's visits are worth every penny.

A New Me
Its a new year with new resolves and... a new 101 list. I am in process of completing it, but some of my new 101 list includes things like:
Pay more attention to my blog and make additions regularly.
Take more picture to post on my blog and post them regularly.
Try to remember that all of my 5 followers are interested in my blog regularly.
I think theres a theme starting here, but I'm not quite sure what it is. Maybe its that I need to be more regular, wait... that didn't sound right.
I hope that the new year was as enjoyable for you as it was for me. My husband and I put the kids down and watched Gone with the Wind on bluray. It was an awesome night! My favorite movie with my favorite man, doesn't get much better than that.
Over the past couple of weeks I've been trying my hat at some new things like, crafty crafts and artsy photos that I've taken myself. I guess another thing that should go on my list is trying to be more creative on a more regular basis... there we go with the regular again.
Happy New Year everybody!

This is our place to share with the world the daily thoughts, events, worries and successful endeavors that occur in our lives.

What is the Plan?
But just for the record. We do have a plan.
Sophie - 8th Grade
She is taking a full class load at Williamsburg Intermediate.
Here is her book list. I have been trying to read the ones I hadn't read already and these are some challenging texts for me to get through. They certainly stepped up the reading for 8th grade.
This should cover all the subjects so I am more of a cheerleader in her schooling rather than the teacher. However, I am not overly excited about Williamsburg's use of Khan Academy as their Math program so we will be using it mainly as a supplement and working through Saxon Algebra 1.
Sophie will also continue to take piano lessons. We will have to fit in some Physical activity too. Once the weather cools down we should take more bike rides and trips to the tennis courts again.
Ian - 5th Grade
Ian is taking two online classes with Leadership Education Academy. I signed him up for a Writing course and the Literature class. I know these are not his favorite subjects but I figured if he wants to be ready to start Williamsburg Intermediate next year he needs to get used to the idea of taking classes like these.
This leaves me with History, Science, Math and any other electives.
Ian is doing Saxon Math 65 this year.
History and Science will be done with Henry. We should be covering Modern history. I have Story of the World on the shelf and we may use that but I really want to focus more on American history. So we will cover the Civil War and the Industrial Revolution this Fall.
Science will be Elemental Science Physics for the Grammar stage.
Ian will also have piano lessons and he is already half way through his Mod design class with Youth Digital.
Henry - 4th Grade
I signed Henry up for his first online class. He is taking the Science Explorers class with LEA. It is an experiment to see if he can handle online classes. In the past he just wanted to type in the chat box and do silly things so we will see if he is mature enough to handle classes now.
He will be doing Saxon 54 for Math.
Doing history and science with Ian. We had to do some California History again to appease the charter school we are a part of but that shouldn't be hard since we just did it last year when Ian was in 4th grade. Maybe we will take a trip up to Sacramento this time to visit Sutter's Mill and such. We have done the California Missions in the past and don't need to repeat them.
I will need to figure out what I want to do with Henry's Writing and Language arts. I know we will be doing Spelling and finish up IEW most likely but I haven't commited to anything yet.
Henry also has piano and this Fall he will be on a Soccer Team. This of course means we have two practices and a game every week for the next 12 weeks. Should be fun!
Molly - Kindergarden
I am really not planning on doing a whole lot with Molly's Kindergarden year. We will focus on learning to read mainly. We have 2/3 of the IEW Pal Reading and Writing left to get through. We will continue with that program.
I don't have plans for anything formal for Math. I haven't started Singapore math until the kids are reading pretty well. I don't want to have to read every math problem to them and they usually jump into Singapore math 1 pretty easily sometime in Kindergarden or 1st grade.
Molly will sit in on history and science with the boys but not have the writen assignments.
Reading and writing is pretty much it for Molly. She is such a tag along kid, I feel bad sometimes.
We will be doing scripture each day and have some piece of poetry we are memorizing. We were doing great with Shakespere before Summer distracted us. I would love to continue. It is just too cute to see Molly recite Shakespere and all the kids love to talk about the characters and tell the stories of Shakespere's plays.
The boys have cub scouts and Sophie has Young Women's activities.
I would love to have an artist and musician each month but haven't planned it yet. I also have Latin sitting on the shelf which should be a part of the schedule.
We will just have to see how it all fits into our packed full days.
I may not have everything completly planned out but at least we have somewhere to start.
At the moment I need to ween my kids off of the t.v. or computer screen. I find screen time is harder and harder to keep control of. It usued to be so easy when each kid got their hour of play and a movie every once in awhile. Lately it has become an all day affair as Ian does his Mod Design class or is "programming" his Mindstorms. Sophie is "checking her email" and chatting with friends on the computer. Henry just wants to have as much screen time as everyone else is getitng and Molly is always in need of easy entertainment. It is the major dilema in our home at the moment. I wonder what would happen if we went without screens for an whole week. I can't really commit to that since I have to be in communication with people (There is always drama going on in Primary!).
Like most things we will just see how it all plays out.
I try not to stress too much about it. It always works out in the end.

You have a lot to do with all your activities!
I would like copies of these photos of the children. Would you send them to me?

I love the pictures of your kids!
Your plan looks great. I'm usually so on top of school plans at this point, but I've hardly done anything so far! I do have a box of books I've ordered, but I don't have everything and some things I haven't decided on yet. We're definitely not getting an early start here this year. Erik is a tag along kid too, and I feel bad about that sometimes. He's not kindergarten age quite yet and really isn't interested, but he loves to read so I may try to do some FIAR with him if I can figure out how to squeeze it in. That's the only thing that remotely excites me about preschool right now.
We need to wean off screen time here as well. I let them get Minecraft and I'm still wondering if that's such a good idea. They are spending time learning to type and doing some indexing in exchange for Minecraft, so maybe it's not such a bad deal.

A Kitchen Addition in Newton, Mass.
It's a dilemma many homeowners face. They need more space, yet aren't in the place to move; whether because of financial reasons, children who are still in school, family that lives close-by, or the simple fact that selling a home and moving into a new one can be an incredibly stressful process. The good news is that there is an answer to the problem of needing more space that doesn't involve a real estate agent: Putting an addition on your home. One of our clients recently chose this solution for the home they were outgrowing in Newton, Mass.
The major problem the client faced was a lack of space for a properly functioning kitchen. The original kitchen was cramped and dated, and the homeowners weren't satisfied with options that simply replaced the existing space.
So, we decided to think outside the box, the box in this case being the four walls of their home, and expand the kitchen with a home addition.
Here's a peek at how the kitchen addition turned out.
First, a look at the home from the outside. The addition was placed at the rear.
The exterior wall at the back of the home was extended to account for the extra space.
Inside, the seamless design flows naturally from the older portion of the home.
The addition allowed for a layout that felt open and spacious, and provided ample room for cabinetry to meet the family's storage needs.
While design-wise, the room was grounded in tradition with Shaker-style cabinetry to tie in with the rest of the home. Contemporary fixtures and hardware were added for an updated feel.
The addition even allowed room for one of the homeowner's wishlist items: a built-in wine refrigerator and bar area.
Considering a kitchen addition of your own? Get in touch with Divine Design Build to plan the renovation or addition of your dreams!

The Duty of Pilgrimage
The deliberations at the October, 2003 Consulta emphasized that, "Pilgrimage has always been, and still is, an important event in the life of the Order. It is a joint undertaking with high spiritual, penitential and symbolic value." A pilgrimage to Jerusalem "is a strong moral and individual commitment for all those who are in a position to carry it out."
A pilgrimage to the Holy Sepulchre of Our Lord and to the other sacred places is also an act of solidarity with our brothers and sisters living in the Holy Land. Our presence among them is an encouragement to the Christian minority in that land, among so many problems, pressures and difficulties. Also, a deepened faith that comes from experiencing the Land of the Bible and its people enables pilgrims to give special witness to those with whom they live and work.
|The Pilgrim Shell is the most prized decoration of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre. It is awarded to Knights and Ladies who complete a pilgrimage to the Holy Land that includes visiting works of the Order, education on the situation among the Catholic population in the Holy Land and praying at the Basilica of the Holy Sepulchre. Normally it is presented by the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, or his representative, and consists of a scalloped shell in silver in the center of which is placed the Jerusalem cross in red, bordered in gold.
Originally, the symbol of a complete pilgrimage to the shrine of St. James the Apostle at Compostela, Spain, the shell is now the universal sign of pilgrimage. The shell reminds us that we are all pilgrims on earth and members of a pilgrim Church. It is also a pledge to aid the needy, especially in the Holy Land.
In this 10 minute video, join members of the Order as they make their own pilgrimage.
"Pilgrimage is the gateway to members making a deeper commitment to the mission of the Order." Sir J. Scott Scherer, KC*HS

To the editor:
New York Sen. Chuck Schumer's vote to confirm Michael Mukasey as attorney general and the chief law enforcement officer of the U.S. Justice Department is sad, painful and quite ironic as it confirms that we are a country governed by the winks and nods of men, and not by law. What good is it to have an attorney general, but no law?
Many senators recognized the irony in trying to have it both ways and changed their position on Mukasey because of his refusal to state that waterboarding is torture. They recognized that this refusal was an attempt to protect Bush administration officials and their interrogators from possible war crimes prosecution. These senators chose to side with the principle of law rather than the practicalities of politics and I applaud them for it. It is important to understand that, from a logical point of view, it is not difficult to see the incongruity here.
Precedence indicates that the United States clearly considers waterboarding to be torture; in 1901, 1947 and 1968 respectively, we convicted Japanese and American soldiers of war crimes because of it. Since torture is cruel, it is, by virtue of the eighth amendment, unconstitutional and unlawful. Since waterboarding is torture, waterboarding is unconstitutional and unlawful. Since the 14th amendment extends equal protection of our laws to any person under the jurisdiction of the United States, the torture of anyone by the United States anywhere is unlawful. It is a simple exercise of logic to correctly reach this conclusion.
Mukasey's refusal to state that, "waterboarding is torture," even though he can't logically avoid this conclusion, shows that politics is not always logical or principled. With a wink and a nod, Schumer has agreed to go along with him and thus suspend our law and our constitution. For the last seven years we have been a country governed by winks and nods and maybe we have always been so. However, I don't think it was ever made so blatantly obvious. Are there no lines we won't cross?

Forming a Narrative
Continued from Part 3
When we see coverage of otaku from Western fan-media, and especially from Western mainstream media, it almost always has a particular slant to it. They're portrayed as creepy, lonely, antisocial, often overweight, and always male. While this portrayal is often lampooned or outright averted in anime, manga, and other otaku media that depict otaku, the perspective is seen as realistic by those on the outside looking in. As a result, Western fans pick up on a very narrow, negative outlook on Japan's otaku.
To them, "otaku" are creepy, lonely, antisocial men who love anime, manga, and games, especially those that involve young female characters, too much. Reinforced by critical otaku media like Welcome to the NHK and Ressentiment, and by ignorance or dismissal of celebratory otaku media like Genshiken and Comic Party, this is the prevailing Western perspective on otaku.
Politically, otaku have no immediate allies. Both ends of the spectrum can find reasons to vilify them, whether it's for their refusal to "man up" and give up their hobbies to settle down with a family or for their perceived outlook on women, informed by their entertainment media choices and their refusal to date.
The narrative is powerful, even in Japan. When elementary school girl Kaede Ariyama was found sexually assaulted and murdered by Kaoru Kobayashi in 2004, the simple suspicion from one journalist that Kobayashi was a figure collector sparked a media firestorm similar to that which erupted after Tsutomu Miyazaki's arrest.
Kobayashi was not a figure collector, but the damage had already been done, as police began to profile otaku as potential sex offenders, and the eroticism of otaku media came under increased scrutiny.
This isn't to say that there aren't socially-awkward, poorly-adjusted, or dangerous otaku. As with any microcosm of humanity, there exists a minority of dysfunctional outliers. From the men who carry around hug pillows to the maladjusted individuals who destroy character goods in effigy upon hearing news of their favorite voice actress getting married, the otaku community has plenty of bad apples.
In Service to a Narrative
When the portrayal of a community is dominated by the outliers of that community, it ceases to be a real portrayal. This is the core of the issue when people say that "otaku" is a bad thing in Japan. The representation of "otaku" that they draw from is askew. Ignored are the cosplayers, the doujinshi artists, the politicians, and the women, among many others. Ignored are works like Genshiken, with its sunny, celebratory outlook on otaku, in favor of works like Ressentiment, with its cynical, defeatist outlook. Ironically, people dismiss some works as unrealistic, but are quick to embrace other works and internalize their messages without a second thought.
When the prevailing narrative paints otaku as maladjusted at best and dangerous at worst, portrayals that don't fit that description will seem unrealistic or idealized, regardless of how common they actually are.
This damages the overall discussion by starting it from a point that does not represent reality. In reality, otaku aren't a convenient group that exists to be scapegoated. In reality, otaku are a diverse group of super-fans, and they deserve a fair shake.

Cops investigating the murder of "real-estate agent to the stars" Linda Stein lied to keep their suspect's lawyer at bay during her interrogation, according to a new bail application filed for the accused killer.
"The detectives told me that they called [my lawyer] and that they called my parents," during 13 hours of grilling, Natavia Lowery told her then-lawyer, Gilbert Parris, according to an affidavit he filed in Manhattan Supreme Court yesterday.
No such calls were made, insists Lowery's current lawyer, Ron Kuby.
Kuby argued Lowery's police confession and the "waiver of counsel" she signed are invalid.

3 situations in which I created conflict for myself as an INFJ
The INFJ women I work with in my coaching practice often struggle with how to deal with conflict. In this video, I get real and share three situations, related to my INFJ personality, in which I created conflict for myself due to my mindset. If you can relate, hopefully you'll be able to recognize these blindspots in your own life and shift your mindset to one that doesn't create conflict for yourself. You'll also learn about the MBTI® + Beyond package if you want to learn how you manage conflict and how to enhance your style based on your personality type.

Conscious Uncoupling Part 5 | Breaking the Pattern
Step 3 in the Conscious Uncoupling process is all about changing your "story" so you can break painful patterns and heal your heart. Regardless of if we realize it or not, most of us have a story. This is more often than not a negative story, or what we call in Conscious Uncoupling a "source fracture." Source fracture stories represent the original hurts of our heart that govern deep-seeded and often unconscious thoughts about ourselves and our worthiness for love, acceptance, and success. For most people these source fracture stories originate in childhood.
Once you can identify and understand that original disappointing experience you will start to see how it has been at the heart of repetitive, painful patterns in love and life.
Our source fracture story is made up of old core beliefs. The beliefs that we operate out of become the building blocks to how we conceptualize our lives. They become our identity. And these beliefs are formed early in our lives, sometimes before we can even talk. This is not because these beliefs are true, but because we believe them to be true and we taint all our thoughts, actions, and beliefs through this false filter.
For example, what I identified for myself was that around age 7 I learned from my parents that my younger brother had a much higher IQ than me and most humans. I made that mean, "since I'm not extra smart in the ways that he is smart, then I must be stupid, so how could I ever be good enough?" And over time this identity of not being enough deepened and grew to include beliefs that I was invisible and not safe to be seen and heard in the world. And I became aware of how these false beliefs were generational, in large part learned from the way my parents and grandparents felt about themselves and interacted in life.
Are you wondering, how to identify the false matrix of beliefs that has been sabotaging your love life? Get quiet and tap into the emotions you are feeling around your breakup. Don't try to control or suppress them. *Breath into them and ask:
How has my former partner disappointed me in ways similar to how I was disappointed in my youth? For example, "He abandoned our family the same way my father did when I was five."
How might I have disappointed my former partner in ways similar to how I was disappointed in my youth? For example: "I was hyper-critical in the same way my mother way hypercritical of me."
What am I making this breakup mean about me? For example, "I am not loved," "I am not wanted," "I am not good enough."
For a free download of the complete process visit: www.ConsciousUncoupling.com/StepThreePractice
Can you see how old beliefs can cloud every aspect of your being? These beliefs form relational patterns based on assumptions we make which dictate our responses to the situation. Without knowing it we set up situations in life that confirm our source fracture stories. Identifying the story makes it possible to explore what's really true through the lens of an adult versus that of a child. When I told my parents about my source fracture story they expressed great sadness. This was never their intent. I can see that now. As adults we can look back on the origin of our source fracture story with more objectivity allowing a more accurate story to unfold. It is here we get to choose the truth of who we are, choosing fact over old feelings. And, it is here we awaken to the power we hold to create a new narrative based in the truth of our value and worthiness moving forward.

YBCA works in cooperation with the US Forest Service and the Ouray County Board of County Commisioners.
The Ouray County Board of County Commisioners (BOCC) was instrumental in the creation of YBCA. In the spring of 2003, they called a public meeting to solicit input on options for managing the Yankee Boy/Canyon Creek area. From that meeting, YBCA developed. During the organization process in spring 2003, the BOCC was tremendously helpful both with overall support and more specific assistance.
The BOCC continues to work closely with YBCA, and to support YBCA.
The US Forest Service worked closely with YBCA while YBCA was being organized, and helped coordinate the process of eliminating fees in the Yankee Boy area. The organizations continue to cooperate closely, especially in administering campsites in the area.
YBCA and the USFS are in many ways complimentary. YBCA and the USFS compliment each other because each is able to do things that are difficult for the other. For example, it is straightforward for YBRCA to effectively recuit and manage volunteers and donars. The USFS is able to own and administer lands and facilities such as toilets and campgrouds.

No more Ray! Gambling firms confirm they will stop showing adverts during pre-watershed live sport
Move comes after they came under heavy pressure to curb the growing rate of gambling among young people in the UK
GAMBLING firms have confirmed they will cut adverts during pre-watershed live sport - meaning no more Ray Winstone.
It comes after heavy pressure to curb the growing rate of gambling among young people in the UK.
According to the BBC, they have come to a voluntary agreement that no adverts will be shown during live sport coverage before 9pm.
The ban also applies five minutes before and after matches and will begin in 2019.
More than 90 minutes of gambling adverts were shown during the World Cup with fears it continues to fuel an addictive habit.
A Gambling Commission report states that 430,000 Brits can be described as gamblers.
most read in football
But the ban does not apply for horse racing and greyhound racing.
John Hagan, Chair of the Industry Group for Responsible Gambling (IGRG), said: "We believe that this is itself a watershed moment as we strive to provide the ever safer gambling environment which gambling consumers and the wider public expect, and which is so important to the future success and sustainability of our industry,
"Today the gambling industry is responding positively to public concerns about the amount of gambling advertising on television before the watershed."
There has also been a growing amount of pressure to prevent gambling companies sponsoring football teams.
Just under 60 per cent of clubs in England's top two divisions have gambling companies as shirt sponsors.
