Many Clues, But None Had Resulted In Arrests At Early Hour Today -- Bank Is Robbed of $ 4,000 In Middle of Afternoon, Robbers Displaying Remarkable Nerve -- No One Injured, Not a Shot Fired -- Bank Fully Insured
In the middle of the afternoon yesterday, when the sidewalks in the vicinity were filled with people, none of whom knew the very unusual thing which was happening on the inside, not even the operator of the filling station, directly across the street, seven bandits, young, unmasked, well dressed, believed to be the same gang at Converse a week ago, held up the officers, and two customers of the South Marion State Bank, at Thirty-first and Washington streets, about 2:45 o'clock, robbed the bank of approximately $4,000 in currency, thereupon, in a cool and collected manner, just as if they were transacting an ordinary business affair, they jumped into their purring Nash motor car at the curbside, and drove rapidly away, less than five minutes passing from the time they entered the bank until they were on their way out of the city, followed closely by the police.
Clues galore have come in, the police are working desperately on the case, through the late afternoon and long hours of the night they scoured the countryside for miles around but no definite trace of the band had been received.
No One is Hurt
No one was injured, not a shot was fired, the employees and customers of the bank who were there at the time scarcely had an opportunity to suffer from the nervous shock, for almost before the robbery occurred, it was over.
Five of the men went inside, two stayed outside.
The first of the five, probably the leader, walked to the door of the cash room and ordered "hands up."
The other four followed closely behind.
The cashier and bookkeeper and one of the customers were ordered into the vault. Still another customer, a woman, was forced into the back room.
No one there attempted to resist, it was realized such would be ridiculous.
The thieves talked little, little was said by anyone, the gang had evidently studied the situation, knew the surroundings and carried out their job with clockwork precision, and almost uncanny accuracy.
They failed in trying to lock up the force and one of the customers in the vault, but they raised the revolvers and eyed them closely.
Is Fully Insured
The loss is fully protected, the board of directors carrying the heavy and reliable burglar insurance.
Following a report that several men answering the description of the bandits in a car said to be a Nash, had stopped at Thirty eighth and Washington streets before the noon hour yesterday and inquired the road to Muncie, Chief of Police Frank Brandon and Captain Jake Campbell left for Muncie last night, but had not returned at a late hour. The bandits worked so smooth and fast, that but very few clues were left to work upon.
Soon on the Trail
Immediately after the robbery the police were notified. Chief Brandon, accompanied by Captain Campbell and Patrolmen Braden and Marsh, armed with riot guns and shot guns left the police station and reached the bank within ten minutes, where a description of the car and bandits was given. They then drove south, in which direction the bandits left after the robbery, and for more than two hours covered many roads in every direction from Marion to Anderson and Muncie, but failed to get sight of a clue of the robbers. They returned to the city after dark.
Many Towns Notified
Sixteen towns and cities within a fifty mile radius of Marion were notified by the police of the robbery within a short time. A few minutes later a telephone call was received from Liberty Center, near Bluffton, that a Nash car had been driven at a fast rate of speed east through that town and was been the bandits. Another report brought in was that a Nash car was seen going west on State Road No. 35 a short time after three o'clock.
From reports received by South Marion residents, the bandits, after leaving the bank drove south on Washington street. At the Scientific Milling company plant at Thirty-second and Washington streets, Harry Jones, manager stated that a large car with yellow license plates, corresponding to the plates seen on the bandit car, had narrowly missed hitting a team standing at that place and were travelling at a fast rate.
Near the corner of Thirty-fourth and Washington streets, where a number of city employees were at work in a ditch, the same car narrowly escaped going into the ditch.
Employes [sic] remarked that the party in the car must be trying to get out of town for some good reason.
Residents along East Thirty-eighth street, reported a car of this description as going east on that street, near the Home corner.
Byron Baxter, cashier of the bank stated that the loss is fully covered by insurance and that no loss would be sustained by bank patrons or the bank.
When It Happened
At two forty-five, within fifteen minutes of the closing hour of the bank, Mr. Baxter, cashier, and Miss Margie Warren, assistant cashier, were in the bank, as were two customers, M.E. Pope of the Pope Grey Iron foundary [sic], and Mrs. George Van Cleave, each of whom came into the bank to make deposits. As the patrons were at the windows, five men, none masked, entered the bank, one of whom appeared to be the leader marched ahead of the four others, who were grouped together.
They walked back to the side door leading into the bank cage, when they drew guns on the bank officers and customers and gave a command for them to turn their faces to the walls.
An instant later, the bank officers were told to come back and walk into the vault in the rear.
Shoved Into Vault
They were shoved in, together with Mr. Pope.
An attempt was then made by the bandits to lock the vault, but their efforts failed and the three persons were ordered to obey their commands.
Mrs. Van Cleave was ordered to step into a rear room.
Two of the men then walked to the cash drawer, where they gathered all of the money in sight, including $50 which Mr. Pope had just deposited.
While they were busy at the cash drawer, the three other bandits told Cashier Baxter to open the safe, which he did.
Valuable bonds and papers, which were picked up by them were thrown down on the floor, while a box of silver money amounting to $200 was picked up and then set down again, not being taken on account of its weight.
The bandits then walked out of the bank and jumped into their auto and drove rapidly south on Washington street.
Bandits Described
Mr. Baxter described the bandits as being from 25 to 30 years old and well dressed. He said that they worked with a system and that the robbery was completed in a little more than a minute. According to persons outside, the bandits' car was a Nash, blue body with wire wheels and carried a yellow license plate. No one secured the license number or the state from which it was issued, but it was stated that Michigan license plates as well as Pennsylvania are of a yellow color, while Illinois license plates of yellow lettering.
From the description given of the bandits and of the apparent circling around the county after the robbery, it is thought that they are the same robbers who held up and robbed the Farmers National Bank at Converse a week ago yesterday.
According to citizens who were in the vicinity at the time, the bandits' car came up to the bank from the north and parked in front of the bank. The robbery was done so quickly that not one person in the community, even the persons in the filling station across the street, were aware of what was taking place until the robbers had completed their work and disappeared.
The report of the robbery spread quickly throughout the city and the news that the robbers were using a Nash car was also spread quickly and many people began to look for Nash cars. Last night a man who resides on Thirty-eighth street, reported to the police that he was the owner of a Nash car which had a Michigan license plate on and he desired to tell the police that it was not his car which was used in the robbery.
The board of directors of the bank had just held a meeting at the bank last Monday night, when the subject of the recent bank robberies in the state was taken up and a special inquiry was made to see that the bank customers were well protected and that there was sufficient insurance carried by the bank to insure no loss to anyone.
Officers of Bank
The officers of the bank, which is located at Thirty-first and Washington streets, are Ernest Prior, president; Carl F. Barney, vice-president, and Byron W. Baxter, cashier. The directors are Ernest Prior, Carl Barney, E.S. Townsend, J.D. Williams, William Berger, W.B. Stephenson, Guy Boots, M.A. Bartels and John Hungerford. The bank is a member of the Indiana Bankers Association.
This account of cousin Harry PIERPONT (1902-1934) and his gang of bank robbers was located at the Marion Public Library. In late 1924 and early 1925, Harry led a group of ex-cons in terrorizing a number of banks around Indiana. The South Marion State Bank job, and others like it, laid the ground work for the later robberies of the Dillinger "Terror Gang." The robbery and subsequent capture of members of the gang, generated a lot of ink in the Marion newspapers.

At times of peak demand for electricity, do you want your refrigerator to run at the discretion of the power company?
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has revised its Energy Star energy-efficiency requirements for residential refrigerators, and it is encouraging the inclusion of "connected" features that respond to utility signals to curb their energy consumption.
The EPA announced the new requirements on June 27. Included is the optional "smart-grid" connection for customers to electronically connect their refrigerator or freezer with a utility provider.
"The updated requirements raise the bar for energy efficiency in these products and, for the first time, encourage manufacturers of Energy Star appliances to include optional 'connected' features," according to the EPA release.

Wind could meet many times world's total power demand by 2030, Stanford researchers say
Andrew Myers, Standford University News
If the world is to shift to clean energy, electricty generated by the wind will play a major role – and there is more than enough wind for that, according to new research from Stanford and the University of Delaware.
Researchers at Stanford University's School of Engineering and the University of Delaware developed the most sophisticated weather model available to show that not only is there plenty of wind over land and near to shore to provide half the world's power, but there is enough to exceed the total demand by several times, even after accounting for reductions in wind speed caused by turbines.
'The careful siting of wind farms will minimize costs and the overall impacts of a global wind infrastructure on the environment,' said Mark Z. Jacobson, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at Stanford. 'But, as these results suggest, the saturation of wind power availability will not limit a clean-energy economy.'
The findings were published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) by Mark Z. Jacobson, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at Stanford, and Cristina Archer, an associate professor of geography and physical ocean science and engineering at the University of Delaware…

EU proposal would limit use of crop-based biofuels
The European Union plans to impose a limit on the use of crop-based biofuels over fears they are less climate-friendly than initially thought and compete with food production, according to draft EU legislation.
The new rules, which will need the approval of EU governments and lawmakers, represent a major shift in Europe's much-criticised biofuel policy and a tacit admission by policymakers that the EU's 2020 biofuel target was flawed from the outset.
The plans also include a promise to end all public subsidies for crop-based biofuels after the current legislation expires in 2020, effectively ensuring the decline of a European sector now estimated to be worth €17 billion a year.
"The [European] Commission is of the view that in the period after 2020, biofuels should only be subsidised if they lead to substantial greenhouse gas savings … and are not produced from crops used for food and feed," the draft said.
The policy u-turn comes after EU scientific studies cast doubt on the emissions savings from crop-based fuels, and following a poor harvest in key grain growing regions that pushed up prices and revived fears of food shortages.
Under the proposals, the use of biofuels made from crops such as rapeseed and wheat would be limited to 5% of total energy consumption in the EU transport sector in 2020.
Crop-based fuel consumption currently accounts for about 4.5% of total EU transport fuel demand, according to the latest national figures for 2011, ensuring that there will be little room to increase current production volumes…

Indian blackout held no fear for small hamlet where the power stayed on
Helen Pidd, The Guardian
At the end of July, India experienced the worst blackout in modern history. At least 20 states lost power in three huge grid failures covering an area home to more than 700 million people.
In one tiny village in very rural Rajasthan, the lights stayed on. Buttermilk machines churned, televisions blared and fans whirred, providing respite from the drenching humidity of the post-monsoon heat.
"We were sitting in the dark in our head office in Jaipur waiting for the power to come back on and yet in Khareda, where very recently they had no power at all, there was an unbroken supply of electricity," said Yashraj Khaitan, one of two 22-year-olds who made it happen.
Khaitan, who is Indian, with Jacob Dickinson, who was born in San Diego, has a big plan: to bring cheap, sustainable electricity to at least one million Indians within five years through their start-up, Gram Power.
Three months ago the engineering graduates from the University of California, Berkeley, chose the hamlet of Khareda Lakshmipura to test a simple solar-power microgrid which has the potential to change the lives of many of the 400 million or so Indians who are not connected to the national grid – not to mention the hundreds of millions of others in the world's biggest democracy whose electricity supply is erratic at best…

Asia Risks Water Scarcity Amid Coal-Fired Power Embrace
Natalie Obiko Pearson, Bloomberg
Inner Mongolia's rivers are feeding China's coal industry, turning grasslands into desert. In India, thousands of farmers have protested diverting water to coal- fired power plants, some committing suicide.
The struggle to control the world's water is intensifying around energy supply. China and India alone plan to build $720 billion of coal-burning plants in two decades, more than twice today's total power capacity in the U.S., International Energy Agency data show. Water will be boiled away in the new steam turbines to make electricity and flush coal residue at utilities from China Shenhua Energy Co. (1088) to India's Tata Power Co. (TPWR) that are favoring coal over nuclear because it's cheaper.
With China set to vaporize water equal to what flows over Niagara Falls each year, and India's industrial water demand growing at twice the pace of agricultural or municipal use, Asia's most populous nations will have to reconsider energy projects to avoid conflict between cities, farmers and industry.

My parents live in the country surrounded by a corn field. Every year my Mom asks my Dad to plant 'a couple' of rows of sweet corn on the border of the 'field corn' field that borders their yard. (For those of you that don't know, field corn is a hardier corn, different than the sweet corn we eat.) Every year my Dad plants 12 rows of corn around the house. The result is a truck-load full (literally) of sweet corn.
While this used to be a profitable side business for my sister and I growing up, no one else seems to want to spend hours and hours picking corn in 100 degree July/August to make an extra $50... for the week. Instead, my parents make some phone calls and let their friends and neighbors know that "the corn is ready, come pick what much you need. Please!"
Nevertheless, my parents still have buckets and buckets of corn. When you've tired of corn on the cob and you've "put up" (meaning cooked and frozen or canned) enough for the entire year, what else can you do with all of that corn?
As a new New England resident, I decided to combine my two worlds : Midwest Sweet Corn & New England Chowder...
Fresh Corn Chowder
6 ears of fresh corn (reserve some for garnishing)3 slices bacon, chopped, browned
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour14-ounce can chicken broth 6 small red potatoes, diced 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 1 1/2 cups half and half (or heavy cream)
fresh basil for garnish
Begin by cutting the kernels of off the fresh corn cobs by standing the cobs on end and running a sharp knife along the cob.
In a sauce pan, cook the bacon and onion together until the bacon is crispy. Add the flour and stir, cooking for 1 minute. Pour in chicken broth. Stir until all of the flour has incorporated. Add potatoes and bring to a boil. Add salt, pepper and half-and-half or cream. Lower the heat and simmer until soup thickens slightly. Add corn just 2-3 minutes before serving.
*Optional. The chowder is pictured as a medium pureed soup. If you would like more of a pureed soup, after you've prepared the soup, pour into a blender and puree until consistency is achieved. I actually preferred it before I blended it, but either way is good!

HABER 660 is a comfortable sailing yacht which performs equally well on lakes, coastal waters and open sea.
Its design is based on that of the HABER 580. We added length and better equipment to make the boat more comfortable. The interior layout ensures comfort unlike other yachts of this size. Despite the small draught, the yacht cannot capsize thanks to the adequate permanent inside ballast and the hull's body. The yacht has been granted the CE (European Certificate) certificate in category C for inshore navigation as well as in category B for offshore navigation.
| The high and well-glazed superstructure provides for a standing height in the cabin of 1.85 m and an exceptional visibility during navigation.
The HABER 660 offers numerous lockers and cupboards.
In the forepeak there is a double berth, and the other one, also double, is created in the cabin after lowering the table. There is also a comfortable galley and a separate toilet-room, optional with shower.
The HABER 660 enables up to 4 people to live in comfortable conditions. The gaff sails operated with one halyard allows its efficient and safe operation. The mast protrudes 0.8m beyond the transom after it has been lowered for transport. The standard engine configuration is an outboard (4-15 hp) installed on the transom. As an option, we offer a 5 to 25 hp inboard Diesel engine to be installed under the cockpit.

PHOENIX (Monday, April 23, 2012) -- Attorney General Tom Horne today filed a lawsuit against Mortgage Relief Group, d.b.a. Mortgage Assistance Group, and its owner, Stan Allotey, alleging that the Defendants engaged in deceptive loan modification services.
The lawsuit alleges that since at least February of 2008, the company deceived consumers into paying fees, ranging from $995 to $3,245, for loan modification services by misrepresenting their ability to help consumers obtain mortgage relief and save their homes, thereby violating the Arizona Consumer Fraud Act.
The Defendants are also accused of using deceptive means to lure financially distressed homeowners into paying up-front fees with promises that the company would prevent foreclosure and save the consumers' homes by negotiating modifications of mortgage loans. Also, the company allegedly continued to charge or collect up-front fees even after the enactment of the Arizona Foreclosure Consultant Regulation Law's ban on charging or collecting such fees.
Once homeowners paid the upfront fees, the Defendants allegedly often failed to perform their part of the contract, keep homeowners informed of the status of their application for a modification, refund fees, or otherwise do anything to earn their fee.
"Predatory loan modification scams are an unfortunate part of the housing crisis," Horne said. "Cases such as this show that every consumer needs to thoroughly research the companies with which they do business. And it is a reminder that nobody should ever agree to paying up-front fees for services of this kind."
The Complaint alleges that defendants violated the Arizona Consumer Fraud Act, the Arizona Telephone Solicitations Act, and the Arizona Foreclosure Consultant Regulation Law, and asks the Court to bar Defendants from conducting any further foreclosure consulting business, impose civil penalties against the Defendants of up to $10,000 for each violation, pay the State of Arizona its costs of investigation and prosecution, and provide refunds to consumers.
The case is being handled by Assistant Attorney General Alyse Meislik in the Consumer Protection and Advocacy Division.
The Attorney General recommends that homeowners who are in or facing foreclosure contact their lender or servicer or a government-approved housing counselor. The Arizona Foreclosure Help-Line, 1-877-448-1211, refers consumers to HUD-approved housing counseling agencies who provide loan modifications and other services at no cost.
If you feel you have been a victim of consumer fraud, please contact the Arizona Attorney General's Office of Consumer Information & Complaints Unit at (602) 542-5763 / (520) 628-6504 / (800) 352-8431.

Because fragrances are associated with memories, the scents we choose to fill our homes with are just as important as finding the right shade of paint for the walls, rug or an accent lamp. It's all about creating a welcoming ambience that you would like to come home to, and welcome others into. The easiest way to infuse a cozy vibe into your place is by adding some candles to your decor. Scents can change a person's mood; work performance and behavior, so it's super important to make sure that you surround yourself with feel-good aromas, especially when it comes to your home or office. You can find the right pick from a variety of types, shapes and sizes like jar candles, pillar candles and more. Select the perfect fragrance from the fresh scented candles collection to suit your mood or choose from seasonally scented candles to embrace the season.

These are slides from a lightning talk I gave at Women Who Code (a meetup for women software developers) Austin chapter on January 5, 2015.
Recently I was surprised to see that Ruby
uniq method didn't seem to work on
ActiveRecord. Suppose I have a bunch of
ActiveRecords and I want to select just the ones that are unique by some field.
These are slides from a lightning talk which I gave at All Girl Hack Night, an Austin meetup for women software developers.
It only took a little bit of WiFi to make a difference between a productive workshop experience, and a waste of time. The workshop was RailsBridge, a free Ruby on Rails workshop for beginners. I have been dabbling in Rails for a while now, but there is only so much you can do in those minutes before sleep, when you are finally done with the day's work, and finally think you can sneak a smidge of time for your pet project -- only to find yourself faceplanting in the keyboard. So I went to a RailsBridge to learn "proper" Ruby on Rails development, complete with things like unit tests, that I tend to skip if I have just 15 minutes in the evening to learn a new framework.
RailsBridge was part of Lone Star Ruby Conf 2013 in Austin, TX, and it was lead by the main instructor, Sarah Mei (founder of RailsBridge workshops), and many coaches. The students were divided into groups of approximately 4-6 people. The process of dividing ourselves was interesting, and worth a paragraph, but since it was nonessential to the workshop, I put it at the bottom.
When I was looking for documentation or tutorials on how to create a RESTful WCF service that returns JSON-formatted data, I found lots of partial information and code examples, none of which completely worked. So when I finally figured out how to create it, I decided to write this article for those who may be in the same predicament as me.
This walk-through uses .NET 4.0, and Visual Studio 2010.
Recently I've been taking a closer look at LINQ, or Language-Integrated Query -- a set of C# and Visual Basic features that let you write SQL-like queries against data structures such as arrays or hashtables. I like how it lets you replace loops with just a line or two of code. I will illustrate it here with two simple exercises.
On March 19, 2008 Richard Dawkins, the famous evolutionary biologist and popularizer of science, gave a public lecture at the University of Texas in Austin; it was preceded by a reception hosted by the Center of Inquiry Austin. Though I didn't have a chance to exchange more than a few sentences with Dawkins at the reception, I formed some kind of impression of him as a person. For example, he speaks in perfect phrases and is hip on technology. (Though I bet he would never use the word "hip". :-)) His lecture topics I found familiar, even though I haven't read his books where he expounds on them. I guess I've absorbed his ideas by osmosis. The questions the audience asked revolved around whether atheists should adopt an in-your-face or a conciliatory tone with general public; some of the questions were more unusual. (Would you ask a well-known skeptic to support his reasoning with astrology? :-)) Then someone asked what Dawkins thinks of transhumanist visions. Finally, a concept he wanted us to take away from this lecture, if it was the only thing we would take away: why evolution is NOT equal to random chance.
I was baffled to discover that it's actually not at all easy to reverse the rows of a spreadsheet in Excel. Extensive Googling lead me to some advanced commands where you really had to Know What You're Doing. Since I don't usually Know What I'm Doing in Excel, I wrote a Powershell script to do the same thing. Actually, this script takes any file, reverses it, and writes it to a different file.
Recently I gave a lightning talk, Introduction to Powershell, at All Girl Hack Night, an Austin gathering of women developers. Here are my slides for it. It introduces some nifty features of Powershell by examining a simple use case.
Passing arguments to a Powershell script caused me to pull my hair out... umm, scratch my head, lately. As with most technical problems, it appeared chaotic and intractable at first, and drew me into a black hole of spiraling confusion, where bugs mask other bugs; however, once I found a solution and tried to explain it to myself step-by-step, everything appeared orderly, even trivial. So now I don't even know why I'm writing this down. Actually, I do. It's so as not to go into the same black hole when I have to figure it again months or years from now.

Tech Update
New Stretch-Forming Presses Boast Smooth Motion Control
Bending extruded aluminum channel to wrap around an automotive window, without putting kinks or folds in the aluminum, requires keeping the extrusion under constant tension while wrapping it around a form. To do so, Johnson's machines employ hydraulic actuators to apply and hold a specific amount of force and tension, whereas using electric motors would require complex gearing and braking schemes to keep the motors from overheating. Hydraulic systems also require a relatively small amount of energy to maintain the desired force, and they scale easily, allowing the control system to be used with different-sized actuators.
The key to smooth, precise operation of Johnson's stretch-forming machines is simultaneous coordination of closed-loop position and pressure control of multiple hydraulic axes. Eight linear hydraulic actuators perform the required stretching, lifting, bending and twisting.
The typical operation starts with clamping the extrusion at each end. Then the workpiece is stretched, bent and wrapped around the mold while the hydraulic actuators control the show.
Controlling the hydraulics requires a motion controller that:
• Simultaneously supports smooth operation of multiple axes, managing the machine's long lever arm that attaches to the end of the extrusion. This arm must move smoothly, or bend quality will suffer.
• Provides accuracy—the machine must perform its forming operations repetitively to tight tolerances to produce consistently high-quality product.
• Can easily be programmed and tuned, so that basic machine elements can easily be reconfigured and optimized for different applications.
• Offers Ethernet communication between the motion controller and PLC, to enable on-the-fly communications and online troubleshooting.
Johnson Equipment employs motion controllers manufactured by Delta Computer Systems of Vancouver, WA. For its most recent stretch press, Johnson used two of Delta's RMC100 controllers, each one able to provide as many as eight axes of control. The Delta controllers obtain axis-position information directly from linear magneto-strictive displacement transducers, one mounted on each cylinder. To provide force control, pressure sensors mount in the cylinder on each side of the piston. To ensure that the actuators precisely respond to control signals, the system employs Bosch Rexroth servo solenoid valves with zero-overlap spool and sleeve design. Preferable to dual-position on/off valves, the servo valves are voltage-controlled and can be infinitely adjustable based on inputs from the motion controller. Depending on the task, the cylinders can range in capacity from 5 and 150 tons; the Delta motion controllers need not change from machine to machine.
Developing the new line of stretch presses was a team effort, including help with specifying and servicing the hydraulics from John Henry Foster Co., St. Louis, MO;, and programming the PLC-based HMI and Delta motion controller by Automation Solutions, Monet, MO.
"We were impressed with the controller's self-tuning capability using the Tuning Wizard that comes as part of Delta's RMC motion-controller software," says Ken Strain, of John Henry Foster. "The setup and tuning is a lot easier than it used to be. What used to take a day and a half now takes half a day."

The Fashion Team has been having lots of themes lately. Michael Jackson style: I wore a Thriller-like jacket. The Emmy round up show: all good red carpet dish. And this weekend it's Ugly Betty. The TV Guide Network will be running the encore shows when the new season starts in a couple of weeks.
Ugly Betty is one of my favorite shows and a bout a year and a half ago we had Vanessa Williams on as a guest. I loved her! So, for this show, I channeled my inner Wilhelmina (her sharp-tongued diva), and my extremely good-natured co-host Lawrence Zarian was dressed as her Boy Friday Mark. I really enjoyed this. It was the most acting I've done in years (not personifying, which is what hosting is).
My outfit is not my usual garb, but quite fun. Why do i not embrace the belt? It really helped with my posture, and the whole ensemble made me power hungry and wanting to hire and fire and make people fetch.
Anya Sarre, fashion reporter for ET and The Insider was a guest. Nice girl.
When the show was over, I got in my A-line tent dress and went home.

If you were a video game reporter in New York, you'd know who the Hip Hop Gamer is. He's the guy who walks around with a WWE Championship belt—except, he makes his interviewees wear the belt while he's talking to them. (Hey, I've done it! I've just declined his offers to rap with him!)
The man isn't just the city's most enthusiastic game reporter, he also appears to be one of this year's go-to soundtrack guys. He's got a song in the new Twisted Metal, and here he is rapping a song for Prototype 2 that will be in the game.
Congrats, Hip Hop! But I prefer the a capella version.
Update: A spokesperson for Prototype 2 bears some bad news. As much as the developers of the game liked the song, they were unable to get it into the game. At least HHG's got Twisted Metal!

Look, Becks, we get that you're frustrated at Great Britain leaving you off the London Olympics squad. We get that. But it's no cause to grow an Austrian mustache and start trolling the world, as amusing as it may be to all of us.
Here's the tail end of Saturday night's Galaxy-Earthquakes California Clasico match in Palo Alto, a madcap battle of goals, missed shots, fouls, and finally a David Beckham meltdown that put him at odds with his opponents, the referee, and even Earthquakes mascot Q. Viewers could see it coming, though; L.A. rushed out to a 3-1 lead thanks to a Beckham goal, another from Landon Donovan, and an Earthquakes own goal. A porous defense and dreadful passing let San Jose score three of their own unanswered, and a sellout crowd went home happy—outside of seeing their Muppet-like mascot involved in the Becks fray.

Dear Colleague Letter: NSF/SBE partnering in round 3 of the Digging into Data Challenge
This document has been archived.
Date: 03/08/13
National Science Foundation
Directorate for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE)
This Dear Colleague Letter is to announce that the National Science Foundation's Directorate for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences is partnering in the third round of the Digging into Data Challenge (DiD). Digging into Data is a grant competition designed to spur computationally intensive research in the social sciences and humanities. It was launched in 2009 and is now in its third round. DiD is sponsored by ten leading funding agencies from Canada, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States and is led by the National Endowment for the Humanities.
The Digging into Data Challenge aims to address how the availability of "big data" is changing the research landscape for the social sciences and humanities. Now that we have massive amounts of digital data - ranging from digitized books, newspapers, and music to information generated by Internet-based activities and mobile communications, administrative data from public agencies, and customer databases from private sector organizations - what new, computationally-based research methods might be applied to understand and make use of these data? As the world becomes increasingly digital, new techniques will be needed to search, analyze, and understand these materials. Digging into Data challenges the research community to help create the new research infrastructure for 21st-century scholarship.
Interested researchers are asked to review the Digging into Data Challenge web site for details about the competition (http://www.diggingintodata.org/) and see the list of previous awards on the Digging into Data Challenge site for information as to what research areas have been supported in previous rounds. Questions should be directed to the NSF program officer for the Digging into Data Challenge, Elizabeth Tran at email@example.com.
Sincerely,Myron P. Gutmann
Assistant Director, National Science Foundation

text: Thought that I would share a really nice piece that Daniel completed for me. I picked up an old school Foster Bros cimeter off of the bay to breakdown primals and to use as a BBQ slicer. The cimeter arrived in rough shape with some nasty grinder scars and big old blocky handle; but the blade itself was sound. I reached out to Daniel who has a great collaborative process whereby he prompts you with some key creative and functional decision points. Ultimately though I told him I had seen his gallery and trusted his judgement with the only real guidance that I wanted this piece to be a tasteful refresh: slightly rounded handle with some nice oak burl from Burl Source, cleaned up blade face and that I liked mosaic pins. Daniel ran with this and the links below reflect the before/after. I have not received yet but I am blown away by the pics, exactly what I wanted, an elegant and functional piece that kept the character of the old traditional butcher's knife. Daniel could not have been nicer and more accommodating, his quote was extremely reasonable and his turnaround time was unexpectedly fast. Based on the pics, the work and f&f appears to be that of a master who knows how to appropriately customize the approach to the piece, in this case adding enough bling while exercising restraint. Can't wait to put this big bad ass blade to work. Without further ado: Before (scroll down) After :ubersexy: Thanks Daniel.

I haven't seen this clip before. It's right at the end and it sounds like the reporter is talking about Building 6 exploding. I can't read it any other way at least. He says "another building has gone up" so he can't be talking about the south tower.
There seems to be an audible explosion aswell but it hard to say. It could be a number of things I suppose.
Do we have any idea who the reporter was or what station he was from?

Please review before taking this medication. What are Amphetamine, mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine and what do they treat? Mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, and lisdexamfetamine are prescription medications that are used to treat individuals with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Lisdexamfetamine is also used to treat moderate to severe binge eating disorder. These medications are also known as stimulants. Symptoms of ADHD interfere with an individual's ability to function at school or work or in social settings and include: Inattention (e.g., making careless mistakes, losing things necessary for tasks) Hyperactivity (e.g., inability to sit still) Impulsivity (e.g., interrupting or intruding on others) Hyperactivity is less common in adults. A person may have severe inattention without hyperactivity or impulsivity. Stimulants are used in addition to non-medication treatments to manage ADHD symptoms. What is the most important information I should know about mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine? Although some symptoms may improve within days of starting stimulants, it may take several weeks before you notice the full benefits of the medication. Are there specific concerns about mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine and pregnancy? If you are planning on becoming pregnant, notify your healthcare provider to best manage your medications. People living with ADHD who wish to become pregnant face important decisions. There is very little information available regarding the risks of stimulants in pregnancy when taken as prescribed for ADHD. Abuse of stimulants (i.e., taking without a prescription or taking more than prescribed) has been associated with premature delivery, low birth weight, and neonatal withdrawal symptoms. Untreated ADHD may be associated with increased risk of substance use. It is important to discuss the risks and benefits of treatment with your doctor and caregivers. Stimulants are not recommended with breastfeeding according to the American Academy of Pediatrics. Stimulants may concentrate in breast milk and have negative effects on the infant. What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine? Symptoms of your condition that bother you the most If you have thoughts of suicide or harming yourself If you experience side effects from your medications, discuss them with your provider. Some side effects pass with time, but others may require changes in the medication. Any other psychiatric or medical problems you have, including heart disease All other medications you are currently taking (including over the counter products, herbal and nutritional supplements) and any medication allergies you have Other non-medication treatment you are receiving, such as talk therapy or substance abuse treatment. Your provider can explain how these different treatments work with the medication. If you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding If you drink alcohol or use drugs How should I take mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine? Stimulants are usually taken 1 to 2 times per day with or without food. Tablets (Dexedrine®, Adderall®): Swallow the tablets whole. Chewing the tablets gives an unpleasant taste and can irritate the mouth and throat. Sprinkle capsules (Adderall XR®, Dexedrine Spansule®): Swallow whole or sprinkle onto food, such as applesauce or pudding and eat immediately. Do not chew sprinkle capsules or contents. Long-acting capsules (Vyvanse®): Swallow whole or open capsule and mix contents with water. Use all of the powder from the capsule. Drink entire glass of water right away after mixing. Liquid (Dexedrine®): Measure with a dosing spoon or oral syringe which you can get from your pharmacy The dose of stimulant medication is variable. Only your healthcare provider can determine the correct dose for you. Use a calendar, pillbox, alarm clock, or cell phone alert to help you remember to take your medication. You may also ask a family member or friend to remind you or check in with you to be sure you are taking your medication. What happens if I miss a dose of mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine? If you miss a dose of stimulant, take it as soon as you remember if it is still early in the day. Do not take a missed dose after 5:00 PM, as this may interfere with sleep. Do not take a missed dose of extended-release capsules after 2:00 PM, as this may interfere with sleep. Discuss missed doses with your healthcare provider. Do not double your next dose or take more than what is prescribed. What should I avoid while takingmixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine? Avoid drinking alcohol or using illegal drugs while you are taking this medication. They may decrease the benefits (e.g., worsen your condition) and increase adverse effects (e.g., sedation) of the medication. What happens if I overdose with mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine? If an overdose occurs call your doctor or 911. You may need urgent medical care. You may also contact the poison control center at 1-800-222-1222. A specific treatment to reverse the effects of stimulants does not exist. What are possible side effects of mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine? Common side effects Upset stomach, loss of appetite, insomnia, and mild anxiety Rare side Effects Contact your healthcare provider if any of the following occur while taking stimulants: Significant increases in blood pressure or heart rate, shortness of breath, fatigue Severe anxiety, panic attacks, mania, hallucinations, paranoia or delusions Severe muscle pain, weakness, signs of dehydration, or dark urine Prolonged or painful erection Changes of feeling or color in your fingers or toes Serious side effects Misuse of amphetamine medications may cause sudden death and serious cardiovascular adverse events. Amphetamine medications should be avoided in individuals who have a heart defect (structural abnormality), uncontrolled high blood pressure, or other disorder of heart. Are there any risks for taking mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine? Stimulants are Schedule II controlled substances. There is a risk of physical and/or emotional dependence (addiction) when they are taken for long periods of time. Although treatment with stimulant medications can slow growth, many studies have shown that these changes are small. Children may catch up with growth over time; therefore, it should not be a concern for most children. Height, weight, and eating habits should be discussed before treatment starts and regularly during treatment. If you are concerned about your child's growth, discuss other possible treatments with your child's doctor. What other medications may interact with mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine? Medications used to treat depression can interact with amphetamine medications resulting in serious reactions including high body temperature, high blood pressure, and seizures (convulsions). Tell your healthcare provider if you are beginning or have recently discontinued any of these medications. Stimulants should not be taken with or within 2 weeks of monoamine oxidase inhibitor antidepressants (MAOIs), including phenelzine (Nardil®), Tranylcypromine (Parnate®), selegiline (Emsam®), and isocarboxazid (Marplan®) or the antibiotic linezolid (Zyvox®). Taking stimulants with or within 2 weeks of MAOIs can result in seizures, fever or dangerously high blood pressure that can lead to death. The following medications may increase the levels and/or effects of stimulant medications: Increase levels: Antacids (e.g., sodium bicarbonate, calcium carbonate [Tums®]), acetazolamide Increase side effects: Atomoxetine (Strattera®), caffeine, phenylephrine, fluoxetine (Prozac®), bupropion (Wellbutrin®), venlafaxine (Effexor®), duloxetine (Cymbalta®), Modafinil (Provigil®), and armodafinil (Nuvigil®) The following foods/medications may decrease the levels and effects of stimulant medications: ascorbic acid (vitamin C), acidic beverages (e.g., orange juice, grapefruit juice) Stimulant medications may decrease the effects of blood pressure medications. How long does it take for mixed amphetamine salts, dextroamphetamine, lisdexamfetamine to work? Although you may experience beneficial effects from stimulants within a few days of starting the medication, it often takes several weeks to get the full effect of the medication. Your healthcare provider may also need to gradually adjust the dose to find the dose that works best for you. Summary of FDA Black Box Warnings Sudden Cardiac Death Misuse of amphetamines may cause sudden death or serious cardiovascular adverse events. Dependence Amphetamines have a high potential for abuse. Prolonged use of amphetamines may lead to drug dependence. Particular attention should be paid to the possibility of subjects obtaining amphetamines for non-therapeutic use or distribution to others. They should be prescribed or dispensed sparingly. Provided by (August 2019) ©2019 The College of Psychiatric and Neurologic Pharmacists (CPNP) and the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).

Iron Mountain's eDiscovery made 2010 a rusty mess
Services priced too high
Iron Mountain's 2010 business was badly affected by mismanagement of its eDiscovery business, which lead to a $284m impairment charge.
Iron Mountain's revenues for the fourth quarter of its 2010 financial year were flat at $789m, just 1.2 per cent up on the year-ago quarter's $779m. Net income was $33m, down almost a half on the corresponding 2009 quarter's $61m.
Full year 2010 revenue was $3.1bn, up 3.4 per cent on 2009's $3.014bn, but 2010 saw a net loss of $54m compared to the previous year's profit of $221m. What caused the turnaround in a year when economies were recovering from recession and other storage companies made strong profits? It was down to a misconceived eDiscovery offering with services priced too high and insufficient business.
In an earnings call, CFO Brian McKeon said of the fourth quarter 2010 results: "Revenue gains were constrained by continued softness in core service activity levels and lower eDiscovery revenues."
McKeon said: "Our confidence in our business model and outlook supported our board's decision to increase our dividend by 200 per cent in December ... We're targeting moderate revenue growth despite expected constraints from continued soft core service activity trends and lower eDiscovery revenues."
He added: "Gains in our Physical business helped to offset a challenging year in our Digital segment. Economic pressures and recent challenges, specifically in our eDiscovery business, constrained growth and lowered digital profits this year."
eDiscovery business
Iron Mountain already had its Stratify Legal Discovery product, a cloud eDiscovery offering, when it bought Mimosa in February last year for $112m, with its NearPoint email, file and SharePoint archiving offerings. The NearPoint eDiscovery part of that complemented the Stratify product. The NearPoint offering was then going to be put into Iron Mountain's Total Email Management Suite, which was powered by Mimecast technology.
Also Mimosa's CEO, T M Ravi, became chief marketing officer for Iron Mountain Digital.
The eDiscovery business was intended to help Iron Mountain grow but the implementation was flawed.
Here's what McKeon said about eDiscovery and the fourth quarter: "In our Digital segment, reported revenues declined three per cent in the fourth quarter. Gains in backup and archiving services, reflecting our Mimosa acquisition, were offset by the divestiture of our domain name management product line and declines in eDiscovery revenues. Lower billing levels for eDiscovery in 2010 and the associated impact on deferred revenue recognition will continue to pressure overall Digital revenue growth in 2011."
The company aims to improve its eDiscovery business performance, integrating it better into the rest of Iron Mountain's business; it was previously pretty separate. The digital sales force is part of the physical sales force management structure. The service delivery side of the digital business will be similarly integrated.
McKeon said: "In Digital, our CloudRecovery in Digital archiving expanded last year, supported by our Mimosa acquisition. However, we experienced a rapid change in eDiscovery business, which declined 10 per cent and pressured our profits. We also had management execution issues in part of our Digital business that caused us to fell well short of our profit plan."
"These factors caused our Digital segments to suffer a contribution decline of 45 per cent. We've corrected these issues and reduced our cost structure in line with current revenues. The impact on revenue growth from eDiscovery will continue into 2011, but our cost actions will offset these impacts, sustain margins and position us well for profit gain as get growth back on track."
CEO Robert Brennan gave more details on the $50m eDiscovery business disaster in the year: "It was a combination of the pricing in the market plummeted very quickly as a result of secular trends in that space, and we weren't quick enough from an execution perspective to right our cost structure. We are righting that cost structure and I think we're doing a much better job identifying and pursuing new opportunities. So I'm confident that, that would stabilise that business. Although because of the way that we booked the revenue, the effects of the down of 2010 will flow into 2011."
Future growth will primarily come from investments in the physical Iron Mountain businesses and international business expansion, including purchasing third-party joint-venture interests and targeted acquisitions. ®

The Pentek EPM-20 replacement filters reduce bad taste & odor and chlorine taste & odor (based on manufacturer's internal testing). The Pentek EPM-20 replacement filter cartridge has low pressure drop. The Ametek EPM-20 water filter cartridges are manufactured using a patented process that yields a cartridge with a nominal 10 micron filtration rating, high porosity and chlorine taste & odor reduction. The high porosity design helps prevent the cartridge from plugging before its adsorption capability is exhausted, maximizing the utilization of the carbon while maintaining low pressure drop. The Pentek EPM-20 filter cartridges are protected by Endurawrap, a uniquely formulated polyolefin bilaminate prefilter, designed to significantly increase the useful life of the cartridge by trapping sediment that typically plugs carbon block cartridges. The Pentek EPM-20 cartridges are manufactured entirely from FDA-compliant materials making them an ideal choice for a wide range of residential, food service, commercial and industrial applications. NOTE: Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system. NOTE: Cartridges will contain a very small amount of carbon fines (very fine black powder) and a new cartridge after installation should be flushed with sufficient water to remove all traces of the fines from your water system before using the water. Each time you use your filtered water tap for drinking or cooking purposes it is recommended that you run (flush) the tap for at least 20 seconds prior to using water. NOTE: Performance capacity depends on system design, flow rate and certain other application conditions. The Pentek EPM-20 filter is the same as Everpure EV910971 and Everpure DEV910971. The Pentek EPM-20 filter cartridges are a modified version of the EP Series cartridge. An economical price makes this cartridge suitable for taste, odor and chlorine taste & odor reduction, as well as sediment filtration. NOTE: When greater chlorine taste & odor reduction is needed, use the EP-20 water filter.

Seville garbage strike leaves a big stink
- Businesses losing money since garbage collectors went on strike Jan. 27
- Workers walked off the job in protest of mayor%27s plans to cut their salaries
- Strike threatened to hurt tourism industry
MALAGA, Spain -- Sanitation workers began shoveling huge piles of rotting garbage off the streets of Seville on Friday following an agreement that ended a weeklong strike by sanitation workers.
But Spaniards here will likely continue to avoid al fresco dining and drinks in the town's outdoor cafes for some time.
The usual sweet orange-blossom fragrance of its tree-lined streets will still stink of rotting fish and produce for days while workers try to clear 7,000 tons of refuse that piled up during the strike.
"These days no one sits outside to have a drink or eat something because it is impossible with that smell," said Juan Manuel Garcia, owner of a bar in downtown Seville, in southern Spain, of the trash left uncollected since Seville's garbage collectors went on strike Jan. 27.
Andres Ferreras' business is suffering hard from the onslaught of garbage. Sales at his downtown shoe store dropped 50 % since the strike started. He has only been able to open one-third of the store's display windows because the rest have been blocked by a 30-by-6-foot pile of waste.
Ferrara said his situation was becoming "unsustainable." When the sun hit his side of the street, the smell became "unbearable."
"Today the situation is worse," Ferrara said Friday. "There is more garbage and some bags got set on fire last night, so it was a miracle my store didn't go up in flames."
Massive layoffs and deep salary cuts are spreading in Spain as the country enters its fifth year in recession and unemployment has reached 26%. That has led to a spate of strikes. According to the Ministry of Employment, at least 80 national strikes will take place this year, 23% above 2012.
Seville, like many Spanish cities, is under pressure to end municipal overspending to alleviate the country's debt crisis.
The city's shaded squares and cobbled streets became heaped with garbage after the 1,300 workers of Lipasam, the city's waste collecting company, walked off the job in protest over the mayor's plans to cut their salaries by 5% and add 2.5 hours of work to their schedules.
"Our salary has not increased one cent since 2008 so our purchasing power is smaller and smaller every year," said Antonio Bazo, union leader at Lipasam, stressing that inflation and tax increases have added to workers' troubles.
"We understand that people are angry, but we believe that workers' efforts to keep their rights are fair," said Bazo, who admitted that "it hurts" them to see residents paying the consequences of their demands.
The strike in Seville not only affected residents but threatened to disrupt one of the city's biggest forms of revenue: tourism.
Tourism represents 11.5% of the economy in this lively city of 800,000. Its Old Quarter, a labyrinth of centuries-old homes, is a favorite destination as is the largest Gothic cathedral in the world, the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See, and the city's stunning example of Moorish architecture and artistry, the Giralda, built in medieval times when Seville was under Muslim rule.
The garbage in the streets was especially harmful to Seville's many cafe and bar owners, whose establishments are normally filled at lunchtime for the comida, the day's main meal.
Seville's local government, led by the conservative Popular Party, defended the salary cuts. It said it must comply with the debt target imposed by the Spanish federal government in Madrid. The agreement reached Thursday requires the union members to take a 3.6% cut in salaries.
Many in Seville were worried that the strike would cause hygiene problems.
"I have a 10-month-old baby and every day I have to pass by parts of the city inundated with garbage, the smell is unbearable, and I am afraid that my child might get an infection," said Paloma Palacios, a finance controller.
Despite the agreement between the city and workers, "the same mountains of trash" were on her streets Friday.
Labor unions in Spain have received significant power from the Spanish government since the days in which they were outlawed by a dictatorship that ended in the 1970s. But many city residents said they were fed up with the union demands.
"I understand they are protesting but we can respect only to a certain extent what they are doing because it affects us all," said Miguel Angel Oliva, a sales representative.
Others were more sympathetic.
Sebastian Martin, a law professor at the University of Seville, said he bikes to work every day and the strike made his routine challenging because he encountered bike lanes blocked by garbage bags. And the smell was sickening.
"It is all this garbage on the street that should make citizens realize the importance of the garbage collection services … and how essential they are for the community," he said.
"Instead of a uniform cut in the workers' paychecks, what (the government) should do is put an end to the unjustifiable salaries of the executives and managers who work for public companies," Martin said.

2013 is a year of remarkable anniversaries so far as Kurds in Iraq are concerned: the 10th anniversary of the Iraq War (opposed by many, including me, in Britain, but viewed bythe Iraqi Kurds as a Liberation), the 25th anniversary of Saddam Hussein's Anfal genocide operation and the 30th anniversary of the régime's killings of men from the Barzani tribe. But those are only milestones — however gross and tragic — in a long journey of suffering that has been the Calvary of Iraq's Kurds. No wonder they have an ancient saying that their only friends are the mountains. But even the mountains could not protect Kurdish villagers when Saddam's airforce dropped a cocktail of chemical weapons on them in 1987-1988. First-hand testimony of the effects of those assaults (delivered at an International Conference on the Kurdish genocide, held at Church House in Westminster today) came from Dr Zryan Abdel Yones, who was a medic in the region at the time and had to deal with hundreds of victims dying in front of him, including preganant women whose bodies expelled their foetuses in a pool of blood. Saddam Hussein was indeed a monster — and a megalomaniac, as I had cause to remember when I spent two days in his palace in Baghdad last month. But the Iraqi Kurds do not yet have closure on their suffering; they want the international community to recognise that what was done to them amounted to genocide, as the Norwegian and Swedish parliaments have already done. We are talking about hundreds of thousands of casualties — many of whom simply disappeared without trace — in one of the most sustained and horrific crimes against humanity in modern times. It was really only after the Rwanda genocide of 1994 that the international community began to realise that there was a international moral reponsibility to protect which over-ruled the usual priunciple of non-interference in the internal affairs of a sovereign state. But it is not too late and a petition to 10 Downing Street has already attracted many thousands of signatures.

Call me insane. I'll agree with you happily.
One definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different result. (There are many who attributed that definition to Einstein or Twain, wrongly so, but it's catchy and apropos, so who cares?)
The second Diabetes UnConference, held in Las Vegas from March 11 to March 13, 2016 proves that I am insane, because I wanted a different result.
The Diabetes Collective provides the framework, the facilitators, and many of the same topics. But what makes each conference different is the attendees and their inputs and insights. And not only was the conference different from the first held over a year ago, the outcome was different, too.
We had alumni return, volunteering their time to help ensure the "behind the scenes" items ran smoothly. They provided soothing continuity to me, a reminder that other people believe in this mission to provide safe, protective environments to talk about the psychosocial aspects of living with diabetes with others impacted by diabetes. My facilitators, many of them alumni themselves, gave their all to guide the conversations around the topics the attendees chose.
And the new attendees were… breathtaking. Some knew what to expect because they had friends who attended last year, but others came bravely, baring their souls. They have won my heart with their willingness to participate and add their voices to our community.
We also included a new group: PLUs, otherwise known as People who Love Us. Spouses, siblings, parents and significant others joined us this year, creating their own safe space to share. Do I know what they discussed? Nope. I'm not a PLU and because we honor the policy of not sharing what is said inside the sessions, all I can tell you is that some powerful bonds were created.
2,521 years of diabetes was the final total in the room.
Some triumphant years, some scary years, but when I looked at all the fortitude and determination in those faces surrounding me, I felt like there was nothing that we couldn't do together. We had Joslin Medalists (50+ years) and those who had been diagnosed less than a year ago. Some Type 2, some Type 1, some who were impacted by diabetes in their lives but living with functioning pancreases. We can move mountains or, if nothing else, support each other through peer support.
Tears. Laughter. Anger. Frustration. All to be expected. After all, this is my tribe. And I love each of them not because of the connection… I love them for who they are at the very core of their beings – and it has nothing to do with diabetes. And what was different? Everything, because my tribe chose the topics and then bared their souls. New year, new souls.
I look forward to growing our tribe at the next Diabetes UnConference in Atlantic City in September and being completely insane again.
Happily insane.

You could not have picked a more different day to shoot a Week 2 VineWatch photo:
Just an absolutely beautiful day on the mountain, though very, very cold!
In fact, we actually had snow on the upper vineyards just the other day:
And to answer a question that came up often as this picture first circulated, the snow isn't at all bad for the vines; in fact, it's actually good that it's so cold. The vines are dormant right now, and they should be. They need to be. Because it is during dormancy that the vines store up the vital carbohydrates they'll need to see them successfully through the coming growing season. And so the snow is good, because it essentially tells the vine to stay dormant. Warm weather at this time of year can actually be a real problem; a false spring can trigger a premature end to dormancy, which then sabotages the vine's ability to store up the carbs it needs. Snow, on the other hand, helps ensures full dormancy, which is what the vines need right now.
But back to VineWatch! If you're not familiar, you can find the full run-down on the original VineWatch series here:
And please stay tuned as we follow our lovely vine this year, onwards towards its eventual, as-of-yet-to-be-determined harvest day! We're only two weeks in so far, but for a look back at Week 1, please click below:
Week 1
And here's perhaps the biggest and best news of all; starting tomorrow, Lytton Springs will be joining VineWatch as well! So we'll have not one, but TWO wonderful vines to track through the season!
Meaning, stay tuned for tomorrow's debut of the Lytton vine!

PSIGMA aims at developing methodologies to integrate formal modeling of problems in management with cognitive and subjective aspects. An important instrument of integration has been the representation of qualitative information (eliciting unknown unknowns concerning the problem) through Concept maps, Cognitive maps, Thinking maps and Mind maps.
The group develops research reported in advised DSc theses, MSc dissertations and published papers. The seminal conference organized by the group, SHE 2012 - Sustainability, Health and Education, delivered research results available in conference videos (English and Portuguese), presentation ppt and posters (see Library in this portal). Several applications have been carried out in the areas of health, education, sustainability, transport and energy.
