As we harness the energy of transition this week (three planets changing signs!) I feel it's important to talk about the role that free will and agency has in astrology. My astrologer friend Bairavee Balasubramaniam recently wrote an article about outgrowing one's natal chart that I feel is particularly relevant as we move into a new (Gregorian) calendar year. She writes "Astrology is still useful as a tool of self-understanding, spiritual awakening and re-cognition – if only to ultimately make itself obsolete." Astrology is not destiny by any means. The planets, stars and asteroids are as much mirrors through which you can affect your surroundings as influences on your personality. The goal of evolution is not to reach a point of stasis in perfection, but to move beyond barriers and into new territory. This shifts our approach to the old teachings from that of a student to that of a master while simultaneously becoming a student of the new teachings. Our surroundings shift in accordance with our internal changes. So why continue to do a report like this if the knowledge is eventually useless? Because it is important NOW. We have to learn to sacrifice our despair that things will change and adapt to shifting ground. I feel that astrology will always be an important marker of the celestial movements and energies, but my attachment to the idea of an ever-fixed diagram of the elements of my personality has waned. We can enter into relationship with the stars and planets, but we must accept that to stay healthy, the relationship must grow and shift with us.
Today, Tuesday the 29th, is the only day we have major aspects between planetary bodies. The Sun is sextile to Neptune and Mercury squares Mars, providing the backdrop for Venus' ingress into Sagittarius. As Venus moves through Sagittarius, She becomes the Torchbearer, throwing our shadows into sharp relief after the shamanic initiation of Scorpio. Mercury in Capricorn in challenging aspect to Mars in Libra means questioning the mechanisms we have in place for executing justice, both as an individual and as a society. Venus wants to bring us to center on love as enlightenment, especially as it concerns our ideas of what justice is. Astrologers often focus on Venus as the embodiment of relationships between people, but Venus rules all kinds of connections, including our connections with our own ideals. All this in combination with the Sun sextile Neptune brings us to the place where we can discern the point of harmony between spiritual laws and human laws, determining our own agency therein. The revolution is not just about mass demonstrations or uprisings, it's about the small ways in which we can improve living and increase the availability of loving to all. Venus will remind us again and again over the next month that freedom taken at the expense of someone else's self-determination is not freedom at all.
New Year's Day, Mercury moves into Aquarius as He slows down in preparation for His retrograde next week. There has been some debate about what exactly retrograde energy means, some seeing it as an unlucky influence while others take it to signify a time of introspection and still others don't see any difference between retrograde and forward motion. I personally view all retrogrades as a planet's bleeding time, a time of surrender to natural rhythms and renewal. It is a perfect time to reframe a planet's archetypal influence while old forms are shed and new patterns come in with the changing tide, not to mention it is a convenient time to focus on self-care in in the area of that body's rulership. Mercury retrogrades are particularly interesting to me because of Mercury's mythological function as psychopomp, the messenger who can travel between the realms of living and dead, conscious awareness and unconscious operation. Mercury travels back and forth over Pluto this retrograde cycle as well, squaring Uranus a few times to unearth some hidden treasure in our psyches. This window of opportunity allows us to access the intelligence of the Void if we are daring enough to let go of some of the artifice of everyday life. Mercury is our passport and guide across state lines, transporting us from the safety of human constructs to direct contact with the Unknowable. Obviously, I cannot tell you what you may find there, but I will elaborate on important signs and markers along the path next week when we get closer to the date and the focus becomes more clear.
On Sunday, Mars also changes signs from Libra into Scorpio, making this transition almost simultaneously with the Moon. The feeling I get is that Mars' journey through Scorpio will be to help us get in touch with the wildness we have sacrificed at the altar of civility. Mars goes retrograde from April to the last day of June, crossing from early Sagittarius to late Scorpio, so we'll see the Scorpionic flavor pervading Mars until August at least. The Moon's touch will resonate throughout, providing a rhythmic background that helps us both to orient ourselves in time and to lose ourselves in the quest. The essence of Scorpio is inevitability, what remains when all forms and defenses break down. This is part of the reason for its mystique and reputation as an unlucky/cursed sign. As humans, we are instinctively repulsed by anything so stark and non-negotiable as Scorpio's energy. Scorpio is where the individual ego-self goes to die. However, Mars is at home there, giving up thought for pure impulse and reminding us of the true self, the fire that underlies and survives a million ego deaths. Mars stimulates the instinctual drives, including the one that recoils from the necessary relinquishment of identity. Fear and death can both be powerful doorways to integrating more truth into one's being. This is the wildness that we have worked so hard to distance ourselves from in day to day life. We have created an interface with reality based on risk management rather than full experience. Mars' wants to close that gap that we have created and will have about eight months to do just that if you are willing to work with Him.
This week sees us in motion between thresholds and definitions. We gather the momentum to create spaces for ourselves that cannot be prevailed upon by dying paradigms, seeking out expressions that reflect the change we are undergoing more and more rapidly. As we release the energy stored in archetypes that no longer serve us, we are dreaming concurrently with creation and producing solutions as they are needed. We can gain entry to places we were previously afraid to tread, giving recourse to the voices untouched by humanity, the voices of wind and wolves, forest and cave that speak for the heart of the planet.

BALTIMORE (WJZ)– More Baltimore City schools were closed Tuesday because of maintenance issues.
A school board meeting was held at the Baltimore City Public Schools headquarters at 200 East North Avenue Tuesday night, which included parents.
"You will have your time to be outspoken. You will have your time to be angry," said Baltimore City Public Schools CEO Dr. Sonja Santelises at the meeting.
The board tossed out its Tuesday night agenda after frustrations overflowed inside a packed meeting room.
"Meetings are nice. Action is better," parent Kahlilah Harris said. "We can't wait for you to tell us what's going to happen further, because you don't seem to have a level of urgency for our children."
"This is just proof of neglect," said parent Keinya Sullivan. "There is no reason that this should be OK. This is not something you sweep under a rug. This is from an accumulation of neglect."
Sullivan says she never wants to see children in coats and jackets freezing again in Baltimore classrooms.
"When I saw it on national news–on CBS–it was very embarrassing to me," she said. "You say you have the best interest of the children–be accountable."
Gov. Larry Hogan pledge $2.5 million in emergency funding to help fix problems with heating in Baltimore schools.
"We simply cannot allow children to be punished year after year because their adult leaders are failing," Gov. Hogan said. "The decades of under funding by city leaders has been exacerbated by their woeful mismanagement by the city school board of the state funding.
"The way they handled this crisis was absolutely awful. They shouldn't have stayed open, in conditions like that," teacher Mike Pesa said.
"I'm not going to blame it on the money. I'm not going to blame it on you all. I'm not going to blame it on the mayor or the governor. This has been going on for decades," grandparent Kimberly Smith said.
The following schools were closed Tuesday:
- Furman L. Templeton Elementary School
- Furley Elementary School
- Calverton Elementary-Middle School
- Harlem Park Elementary School
- Leith Walk Elementary School
- Pimlico Elementary/Middle School
Later in January, schools will hold a special town hall for the heating problems. According to officials, there will also be an online process where parents can submit comments and complaints.

Right, so I have no idea what the hell an Erdbeerschnitzel is (strawberry steak?) but who cares if it sounds so DAMN TASTY. By now you must have heard that Jisco/Under The Shade head honcho Dave Griffiths is expanding his empire of the deep with yet another label, 3rd Strike Recordings, "focussing mainly on house music" according to the press release. Well we all know house music comes in many shapes and forms, of which I detest about 85% so I was anxious to hear the first release. To be brutally honest, I was a bit sceptical too, because - given a few notable exceptions - most of the Under The Shade catalogue doesn't really do it for me.
Happy to report that Erdbeerschnitzel's EP on 3rd Stike is an outright beast of a record with just the right amount of sleaze/filth. Tim Keiling, the man behind the odd name, delivers two squelchy, superdeep midtempo bombs with skippy, wonky drums, vintage-sounding detroity synths, loopy vocal snips, sloppy claps, the works. Quite hard to describe really, it's a most refreshing sound that bridges the gap between Detroit house and filthy techno, pitched down to around 110 BPM. In short, both '4 Months' and 'Tonight is Today is Tomorrow' are mint. Oh, and before I forget, there's a pair of remixes too - 4 Months gets a Mark E workover that works a treat and Arto Mwambe sprinkles some magic tech-house dust over 'Tonight is Today is Tomorrow'. Both are not a patch on the original tracks though. Tight stuff, can't wait to play this out.
Have a listen to 'Tonight is Today is Tomorrow' below, it's brilliant:
Tonight is Today is Tomorrow by erdbeerschnitzel
Out now in all fine record shops, pick up a copy now. Cool people buy music you know.

I love fall weddings. September and October bring such pretty colors and lighting, temperatures that don't leave me wilted and looking like a hot mess at the end of a wedding, and fall brides seem to have a more relaxed way about them. Maybe it's the weather, keeping us all from going crazy :) Danielle & Nic were no exception. Such a great couple, so nice, relaxed, and not only were they super nice- their whole wedding party and family were so wonderful to work with. Danielle & Nic, I can tell you are great people, and you are surrounded by a community of great family and friends. All the best for the years to come!
We started with getting ready shots of Danielle at the Quality Inn in Clarkston:
Nic had his mom steal a shoe and he wrote a little message for his bride on the sole of it:
Love how they incorporated Danielle's Grandfather's car into the first seeing each other moment:
Danielle, all night everyone told you that you look stunning. They weren't just saying that:
This dance floor was sooooo gorgeous:
The father-daughter dance was so sweet:
I love a dancing bride:

I stayed in Chiang Mai for three nights in Aruntara Riverside Boutique Hotel. The hotel is situated on the banks of the Mae Ping River; it was lovely in the mornings sitting beside the river eating the delicious buffet breakfast they offered.
The hotel was a little too far to walk to the night markets and restaurants, but they laid on a free shuttle bus service to drop you off and we got tuk tuks to take us back after we'd finished.
Chiang Mai stole my heart; I loved this city.
Chiang Mai is Thailand's northern capital. It's about a 1 hour 15 minute plane journey from Bangkok, or you can opt for the overnight sleeper train.
We spent all three evenings walking around the local night markets, filled with stalls selling souvenirs and food.
The night markets are a good place to try out local street food; northern sausages and Khao Soi curry is a must in Chiang Mai. I picked up a Khao Soi curry from a stand for 40 TB and it was delicious!
We stumbled across a really cute little square called Ploen Ruedee Night Market, which had different food stands and live music. The seating was made up of haystacks and oil barrels made into benches. The live music was made up of different local bands, and they were all so good!
We spent out first full day in Chiang Mai at Baan Chang Elephant Park. We'd pre-booked this trip back in the U.K. through their website. The day started off with information about the elephants, we then fed the elephants and did a bare-back elephant trek (which I feel super guilty about doing now; at the time I wasn't aware of what elephants went through in order for humans to be able to ride them), and finished off the day bathing them. It was such an amazing experience to get up so close to these impressive animals, but I do wish I'd done more research into the elephant camps in Thailand. If you're interested in spending a day with the elephants, I would definitely recommend Elephant Nature Park.
On our second day, we did a cookery class at Pantawan Cooking School. The school picked us up from our hotel and took us to a local food market where we got to see lots of different fruits, vegetables and meats. We even got to try some of the food in the market. We then got taken to the cooking school where we each had our own workstations and began to cook different Thai dishes. After all of our hard work cooking, we were finally able to tuck in and enjoy the food we'd just prepared!
Chiang Mai is always going to have a special place in my heart, and I can't wait to go back to visit again!
Up next: Koh Samui
Do you love Chiang Mai as much as I do? Please leave your comments below.

If I was to write an exhaustive post on all HCG diet tips I have received in the past I would still be writing this in the new year (great time to start the HCG diet!). There are however certain tips that really do work for everyone, so I thought I would condense the thousands I have heard into potentially the top 10, so read on and get the most out of the HCG diet…
1. I cannot stress this HCG diet tip strongly enough – understand the HCG protocol. If you begin the HCG diet without fully understanding why it works and what components are crucial there is every chance you will fail…period! At the HCGA Diet Club we give you all the information you need, from it's history, how it work's, permitted foods, meal plans and recipes. Read up on all the available information before you begin.
2. Water! This is so important for not just the HCG diet but also for general well-being even when not dieting. Remember water is calorie free, acts as an appetite suppressant and don't forget alkaline water is the best for you and your body. Make sure you drink at least 2 litters per day find out more here.
3. You've heard of the saying "variety is the spice of life", well this is definitely true while on the HCG diet. Make use of all the recipes included on our site and don't get bored! There are also many spices and herbs you can add to your HCG recipes get your free HCG spice guide.
4. Complete the HCG diet phase 1 correctly. That's right eat all the foods that may have got you here in the first place, fatty, greasy, sugar filled guilty pleasures try and consume 5000 calories each day during the loading phase. Fail to do this correctly and you will suffer from low energy and hunger pangs in the first week.
5. Don't cut corners and stick to the diet. The reason this revolutionary diet is such a success is because it has been specially formulated. Here you'll get the comprehensive lowdown on the diet, adhere to it and celebrate the results!
6. Do not become inactive. Keep busy doing chores, go for a walk…anything. Don't worry that you may feel lethargic because of the 500 calorie diet, the HCG will take care of that, remember you are mobilizing your unwanted and abnormal fat to generate energy. Sit around like a couch potato and you may become bored and crave a little foodie treat!
7. Try not to cheat. I know many that have had a brief lapse on the HCG diet and it could be for a host of reasons, try your hardest to them. You can still achieve success on the HCG diet, but if your aim is to achieve maximum success, retain a strong mindset and avoid cheating.
8. Drink lots of tea! Remember tea and coffee is included in the HCG diet plan. I'm not talking about you normal cup here though. Try and consume different types of herbal teas, they are great for cleansing your body and a great way to keep your water consumption at the optimum level.
9. I hate to say this but try and restrict your social schedule while on the diet. Obviously don't become a hermit, but try and limit the temptation of dining out, going to parties etc. If you are going to a social function here are some further tips.
10. I've saved the best for last! Treat yourself! Why not go out with a couple of friends and buy some new clothes for the new YOU! It will give you the stimulus to keep persevering and finally achieving that new dress size that you once thought elusive.
Just one last word and I suppose tip 11, remember you're going to feel different, maybe light headed, suffer the occasional headache and even briefly lose your appetite, but never forget this is a proven program. Expect your body to respond accordingly and don't worry unless you experience recurring symptoms, such as nausea and chronic pain, at which point you should consult your physician.
Do you have any great tips, please share them with other members by leaving a comment below…

Balram Naidu is 59 years old from Fiji had been living a normal healthy life until a little while back, when he started to have shortness of breath. He started feeling exhausted after walking up to some distances. When he consulted a physician near him, he was suspected to have cardiac issues. Therefore, he was advised to have certain investigations including an angiogram. The angiogram revealed severe obstruction in multiple blood vessels to the heart. Consequently, he was recommended to get CABG done.
Due to limited resources in Fiji, the patient wanted to come to India for his treatment. While searching about the best cardiology hospitals in India, he came across the website of Vaidam Health. He posted the query regarding the treatment on the website. Soon he was called by a case manager, who explained everything to him in detail. The case manager, Dr. Amarroop asked for the reports of the patient and shared it with the leading hospitals. Soon after, Dr. Amarroop shared the opinion with the patient as received by the topmost cardiac surgeons in India. Finally, Balram was able to decide with the help of the case manager, that he would go to Indraprastha Apollo Hospital, New Delhi for his surgery.
This was followed by the entire paperwork process that included getting the Visa Invitation Letter by the hospital, which was done by a team member. After completion of the entire paperwork, the patient finally arrived in India on 6th December 2018. As he arrived, he was picked up from the airport and taken to the hotel. Later his appointment was booked with Dr. Amit Mittal, who is a renowned cardiologist at the hospital. Dr. Mittal took a detailed case history of the patient and ordered a few cardiac investigations, which confirmed that the patient had a massive blockage in multiple arteries. Finally, the date for surgery was decided.
On the scheduled date, all the pre-operative examinations were carried out, to prepare the patient for the surgery. The patient was put on general anesthesia and the surgery went on for 3-4 hours and went successfully. He stayed in the hospital for nearly 10 days. Before the discharge, the doctor explained to him lifestyle and dietary changes that he would need to make. He finally went back on 5th January 2019. He was happy and contented with his successful treatment and overall services.
Vaidam wishes him good health in the future.

The Harvester is the most iconic unit piece in Year 0: Tactics and we believe the older model that we all know didn't do itself justice. With this in mind, our 3D artist has been working nonstop upgrading the Harvester with more polys, textures and animations, transforming it into the mothership of Tactics! This isn't all we're giving you today though. We're also very excited to announce the implementation of a new ranking system which will make the game more competitive. Player titles have now been introduced ranging from some low level entry names such as Marauder to prestigious titles which demonstrate your battle capabilities and seasoned knowledge on the game, such as Warlord. Currently, 10 ranking titles exist and you can achieve these ranks in a range of different ways. These currently include: The ranking title will appear before your personal name in the high scores table. Let's see who can achieve the highest rank first! Finally, there are some more tweaks and adjustments for the game. We've been focusing on performance and tutorial changes. The tutorial is now easier to understand and will give players a better insight into the game quicker. Additionally, we've made tweaks to farms as they will now award players with more resources. Players will also now find that their bases are significantly cheaper to repair after being pillaged in a raid. Let us know what you think of these updates by visiting our forums.


text: Latest News Researchers Discover Potential Mechanism That May Lead to Treatments for Glaucoma, Other Diseases By Staff Monday, November 18, 2019 12:18 AM TUCSON, Ariz.—Scientists in the University of Arizona Department of Physiology have identified a potential molecular mechanism that may hold the key to understanding how pressure is regulated in the eye. Funded by a $2.3 million five-year grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) National Eye Institute, this research could help to develop future treatments for glaucoma and other diseases. Current treatments focus on lowering eye pressure with eyedrops and oral medications. However, these drugs lose their effectiveness over time. More than three million Americans suffer from glaucoma, the second-leading cause of blindness in the U.S., according to Prevent Blindness America.In response to this major health issue, Nicholas Delamere, PhD, professor and head of the Department of Physiology at the UArizona College of Medicine – Tucson and his research team have discovered a specific "mechanosensitive ion channel," TRPV4, which they believe senses and helps regulate pressure inside the eye. "If the findings prove true, it means we have another piece of the puzzle on how the eye regulates. If we understand how it works properly, we get a ticket to understanding when it doesn't work and how we can prevent that," Dr. Delamere said. "Understanding these ion channels and the signaling that determines the proper regulating of fluid also could be important in understanding blood pressure regulation and the growth of cancer cells. You have a target mechanism for the development of new drugs."

ROMProShares Ultra Technology
ROM Fund Description
ROM provides 2x leveraged exposure to a market-cap-weighted index that measures the performance of large US technology companies.
ROM Factset Analytics Insight
ROM provides 2x levered exposure to the Dow Jones US Technology Index, with daily leverage resets. Like all levered funds, it tends to underperform in volatile markets if held for longer than its reset period, and is only suitable for short-term trading positions. The underlying index is made up of the tech companies in the Dow Jones US Index, a total-market index that tracks the top 95% of US market capitalization. The fund reflects the concentrated nature of a space dominated by names like Microsoft and Alphabet, and it focuses on Apple in particular, so single-name blowup risk is a concern. While ROM charges a reasonable fee for the high-priced leveraged space, trading costs are more important here. Liquidity is middling at best for a tactical vehicle, with lukewarm volume and wide spreads most days.
ROM MSCI ESG Analytics Insight
ProShares Ultra Technology has an MSCI ESG Fund Rating of A based on a score of 7.02 out of 10. The MSCI ESG Fund Rating measures the resiliency of portfolios to long-term risks and opportunities arising from environmental, social, and governance factors. ESG Fund Ratings range from best (AAA) to worst (CCC). Highly rated funds consist of companies that tend to show strong and/or improving management of financially relevant environmental, social and governance issues. These companies may be more resilient to disruptions arising from ESG events.
The fund's Peer Rank reflects the ranking of a fund's MSCI ESG Fund Quality Score against the scores of other funds within the same peer group, as defined by the Thomson Reuters Lipper Global Classification. ProShares Ultra Technology ranks in the 83th percentile within its peer group and in the 86th percentile within the global universe of all funds covered by MSCI ESG Fund Ratings.

In the famous "Seven Ages of Man" speech in Shakespeare's As You Like It, Jaques, the misanthropic philosopher of the play, expounds on the individual life cycle. He begins with the unsavory aspects of babyhood—"the infant, / Mewling and puking in the nurse's arms"—and ends with the bleakest rendering of old age:
Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.
I have been thinking about this trajectory lately—the last scene in human life, in particular—as I seriously confront my own old age and eventual death. When I turned 60, five years ago, with only a decade left to my allotted three score and 10, I began to ruminate on these things. I can honestly say that before turning 60, I was focused on the road forward. At the stroke of 60, I began to look back.
Birthdays are supposed to make us feel proud of something that we took no part in accomplishing (i.e., getting born). But as with so much that seems to be given gratis, they make us pay later. We like to celebrate when we are young, then like doing so less and less as we grow older. Birthdays are like those fairy tale gifts that turn on the recipient.
Custom decrees that predictable emotional responses be built into certain landmark birthdays: 21 is exciting and to be welcomed; 30 is a watershed—good if you are launched in life and love, distressing if you are not; 40 is dubious—a time when you can still assume, with some effort, that you are young; 50 is when you probably can't but still try—the classic moment for a midlife crisis; 60 is the time to face not being young and thus contemplate the prospect of being old.

Neil Peart, legendary Rush drummer, died on Friday from brain cancer at the age of 67. I've seen Rush in concert a few times and enjoyed most of their music. I especially enjoyed their "Rush: Behind the Lighted Stage" documentary.
In spite of their misfit nature ad limited radio airplay, Rush sold a ton of albums.
Here's a great piece by the New Yorker about Neil and Rush. Rest in peace, Neil.
Neil Peart, the lyricist and virtuosic drummer of the Canadian progressive-rock band Rush, died on Tuesday, in Santa Monica, California. He was sixty-seven, and had been fighting brain cancer for several years. Rush formed in Toronto, in 1968 (Peart joined in 1974), and released nineteen studio albums, ten of which have sold more than a million copies in the U.S. According to Billboard, Rush presently ranks third, behind the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, for the most consecutive gold or platinum albums by a rock band.

A force in local, state, and national politics for nearly three decades, the Honorable Manny Diaz was first elected mayor of Miami in 2001, having never before held elected office. He was re?elected to a second term in 2005 and was chosen to lead the United States Conference of Mayors as its president in 2008. Diaz came to public prominence as the lawyer representing the Florida?based relatives of Elián González, who in 2000 was at the center of a custody battle between his aunts and his Cuban father.
In two terms as mayor, Manny Diaz transformed Miami from a poor, crime-ridden, and economically stagnant city to a flourishing metropolis with a hurtling skyline. In this session, Diaz will explain how he set out to transform the city's brand by attracting the best and brightest to its shores and how smaller municipalities can too. His strategy? Constant innovation. The public will always look for the next big thing, so governments large and small must always reinvent themselves in order to stay relevant. Diaz—who is frequently approached by mayors from across the nation about rebranding their cities—will share his strategies and insights with you to help you successfully transform your community.

And can I tell you how thrilled I am the SP question finally came up this week? I'm tapped. My brain is no longer generating useful or entertaining bits... if it ever did.
What is the best thing you've ever received in the mail?
Wow. That's a kind of difficult one.
I've been to Girl Scout Camp, was an exchange student in Mexico for most of a summer when I was 13 and went to Antarctica for six months -- letters% from home were always fantastic.
[SUMMARY: Oh, the places I've been!]
I received my AP English test scores,† college acceptance letters, title to the first car I bought myself,‡ and the neighbourhood covenants§ when I bought my house.
[SUMMARY: Validation of a life well-documented.]
I do have a story,¶ though, about one of my favourite mail moments:
My freshman year in college, one of the first people I bonded with was Chris Erikson. He was gorgeous# and a Rush fan†† and one of those naturally popular people it's just good to have on your side.
I was in the basement of the Union getting my mail and he detoured from the pool table to say hello and, "Hey, what'd you get?" I handed my meager stack of mail over to him and he zeroed in on a letter from my friend Mark in England.
"Can I open it?"
"Can I read it?"
Now, Mark is funny as hell and creative, so I figured it'd be a good letter. And I knew there wouldn't be anything incriminating in it.
Only Mark had annotated this letter with pictures cut from magazines. And the picture that popped out‡‡ first was a photo of an erect penis, separate from its owner, with the handwritten note, "This isn't me."
Chris crowed with glee and read the letter out loud to me, giggling the whole time.
I never got a penis letter from Mark before or since, but that letter cemented me in Chris's mind as a cool chick who knew cool people, and we lived happily ever after.§§
[SUMMARY: Never has one person gotten so much credit for doing so little.]
Bois Farine - l'Artisan Parfumeur¶¶
Marin says: It smells kinda like peanut butter. Not Jif, but the stuff in a Reese's peanut butter cup. Fake peanut butter. A little sweet, a little unnatural.
I know this is supposed to be an innovative perfume and it does, indeed, smell like flour. Like flour and water paste, to be more specific. It's not unpleasant, just really odd.
Three hours in, it smells a tiny bit flowerier, which helps it be less... odd. Yeah, I'm running out of words for this one.
Oh, wait. Wait. There's a roll-out with this one! It's making me very happy -- almost giddy. The flour paste and light floral is there, but blossoming, and there's something astringent and vaguely medicinal that reads like camphor or cinnamon -- something that would make you hot or cool if you rubbed it on your skin.
l'Artisan says: Created by Jean-Claude Ellena, perfume composer of great talent and international fame, Bois Farine (Wood Flour) is the product of his encounter with a magic tree in the Reunion Islands.
Here, in a forest known as the coloured wood forest, surrounded by evocatively named trees , red wood, yellow wood, iron wood and milk wood, he unexpectedly discovered the fragrant white tree - a rare and nowadays protected species, reputed to have magical powers. This tree is specific to Reunion Island and its red flower smells like flour.
Bois Farine is a single and unique fragrance,## a magical union between witch wood and flower powder … As rich and fresh as flour rain.
Hans says: Oh, that does smell like diaper. *sniff* Yep. Diaper. Like baby powder. You know, like when you go into a baby changing station?
%FOOTNOTE (percented): And M&Ms.
†FOOTNOTE (crossed): With the letter saying I'd earned the highest score in the state. Yay me. Oh, let me brag... I don't have that much to brag about.
‡FOOTNOTE (double-crossed): A milestone.
§FOOTNOTE (swerved): Which I read cover-to-cover that night in bed.
¶FOOTNOTE (paragraphed): I *always* have a story. You may have noticed.
#FOOTNOTE (pounded): Looked like a blond David Cassidy.
††FOOTNOTE (ddouble-ccrossed): And was, in fact, driving on the epic road trip from Gunnison to the Rush concert in Denver (2/14/86) that turned my bladder into the camel's hump it is today.
‡‡FOOTNOTE (doubble-crossssed): So to speak.
§§FOOTNOTE (won't that turn your head around?): He even called me once a couple of years after graduation just because he found me in the phone book.
¶¶FOOTNOTE (put your hands up!): For those of you who may be interested (*coughSylvia* *coughRosie*), l'Artisan will ship you five samples of your choice for the price of shipping and handling ($7). Along with a catalogue that is the most beautiful, expensive example of the printer's art I have ever seen.
##FOOTNOTE (pound that point home!): Um... because nobody else would try to make a perfume smell like flour?

The Diy 719
is a Colorado Springs-born, Forza-fueled, "Create-a-Col" cycling challenge.
It's a do-it-yourself version of the 719 Ride, a word-of-mouth, grassroots bicycle event held each July 19 in Colorado Springs.
To Diy:
You complete a 71.9 mile ride with at least 7,190' of climbing.
Anytime. Anywhere. Any route.
On any two-wheeled conveyance you power by yourself and only yourself.
But There is Fine Print.
Don't ride more than 71.99 miles.
Ride outdoors, not on your trainer.
Don't use an electric bike.
Record your ride using a GPS device with an altimeter or barometer.
Don't repeatedly go up and down the same climb like you're Everesting. Range far.
Loops are okay. But the 719 Ride on July 19 doesn't count.
Your Reward
Successful completion of a DIY 719 earns you a lifetime of glory and honor through enrollment into The Severo Society (TSS), an exclusive club of grimpeurs, puncheurs, diesels, mashers, granny gears and bricks united by a love for cycling and a challenge that involves roads that tilt up.
TSS members secure exclusive naming rights for any 7,190' cols they "discover" and may adorn themselves in the garb of the Society.

Sound Transit is asking all to take the transit system expansion survey.
On Thursday, Sound Transit began asking the public to help shape plans to expand the regional transit system. They did so by launching a Sound Transit Web survey. The survey runs through March 9.
Following the death of Proposition 1 last November, the Sound Transit Board this winter is taking a renewed look at regional transit system expansion with the potential of going out for another vote this fall. In the survey, they're asking such things as what are people's highest priorities, when a package should come back to voters and how ambitious the transit package should be.
Postcards that are arriving in mailboxes this week are also inviting ideas and urging people to take the survey.
The results of the survey will be presented to the Sound Transit Board in mid-March. Residents who prefer to take the survey in a written form rather than online can call 1-866-511-1398 to receive a copy by mail.

Hi guys. I'm trying to do some maths in a 115u 944B CPU. I'd like to divide a fixed value of 768 by a variable value. I'd like the result to be to 1 decimal place.
Currently my variable value is in DB10, DW24 in KF format. I've used FB243 to divide 768 by DW24, but this ofcourse is no decimal places.
How do I go about doing it to one decimal place.
Many thanks

The highlight of every Christmas is the annual "Sock Exchange." It really has nothing to do with exchanging socks but it is a play on words with "Stock Exchange. From a previous Christmas post I explain the Sock Exchange:
Sock Exchange: My father in law started this tradition years ago with his kids and it has continued even with in-laws. Instead of having Christmas socks with candy in them, they are filled with practical items (food things--maple syrup, spices, ramen noodles and non-food things like serving spoons, windshield washer fluid, etc.) as well as not-so-practical (OK, junk) items. We then play a white elephant like game, trading and exchanging items from our pile of stuff.
You can save one item and then anything in your pile is up for grabs. We "rock, paper, scissors" to determine who goes first and then let the "sock exchange" begin!
Someone had just taken something of my brother-in-law's that he wanted. Lots of intense, "Oh man! How could you? " was yelled. (All in good fun, I should say.)
A few years ago, the "mystery gift" was introduced. There are usually 3-5 mystery gifts floating around. Some are great gifts, many are not. They can't be opened until Sock Exchange is declared over. My brother-in-law the one "non Republican" in the group got Glen Beck's The Christmas Sweater on CD. Pretty funny.
Toothsome #4 with one of the "sockie" items Dentist husband ended up with. Pretty awesome.
This Richard Simmon's VHS has been a mystery gift for quite sometime. Dentist husband's sister got this after someone "ruthlessly" took one of her prized items--a nice liquid measuring cup.
This was indeed Sock Exchange at its finest.

My relationship with Spidey began as early as 1990, when I was six, a few months after my sixth birthday with the GameBoy game "The Amazing Spider-Man". I was already at school and had learned the first letters. Later that year, I stumbled upon a Spider-Man comic printed in my language. I could not afford to buy it, so I read it at the store, at least I tried to. And I did pretty well. Soon I could already read the whole book, still in first grade.
Eventually my mother bought me the book. And the next one. And the next one…
I got myself Spider-Man 2 for my ninth birthday. The game was already out for a while, so I had time to stack up some cash for it. It took me eight years to actually realize what I had to do to complete the game…
The year is 2010, and in September, the next Spider-Man game sees the light of day. Called Shattered Dimensions, this game is developed by Beenox. So why should you care?
Sure, I love Spidey, but up to this point, little much good came after Ultimate Spider-Man in 2005. So whats there for you?
First off, the game is different from all the games before it. Not only because its a new developer. But because the developer made clear from the beginning what the goals were. Gone are the times of a free roaming Spidey through New York and while most people liked that about the other games, I did not. It just felt like a cheap way to prolong the game with random crimes and races through the city. It gets boring fast, and there were few indoor missions. You always did the same thing. That gets boring.
Not so in this game. Beenox just blatantly ignored the outcry of the people that wanted free roaming and made it level based. I like level based, and I will tell you why. Simply put: You can do so much more gameplay and creative things with level based games.
And the game is a blast. Make no mistake, it's far from perfect. But in my humble opinion, it is the best Spidey game ever created. Not only that the levels show a versatility that's unmatched by any other Spidey game ever, but because of the game's hook, the four dimensions.
In this game, there are four different worlds with four different Spideys. each dimension has it's own hero and villains, it's own voice actors, graphical style and gameplay. Difference is they key. You sure can webswing wherever you want, just in confined space and set levels. From New York to the jungle, from the past to the future, everything is now possible.
The game is also brimming with fanservice. Cameos on billboards and talkabout, famous Spidey voice actors from the TV shows and over a dozen Spidey villains wait for the player. Furthermore, the game is developed for all three consoles by the same team, warranting that the experience is the same on all three systems.
There is also a DS port in the making, handled by the same team that did the critically acclaimed Web of Shadows DS. The DS port features only three dimensions though, but it still is a good game. It is a Metroidvania type of game, so you probably enjoy the heck out of it.
The Wii version is remarkably awesome as well. It is the exact same game as the PS3 and 360 versions, just with the graphics a little bit stripped down and some added pointer controls for web grabbing. Does it work? It does! In fact, there are instances where you just do not notice the difference in graphical quality.
If you like superheroes, Spider-Man or good action games in general, I recommend this. And if you liked the game, be sure to check out the corresponding comics, for they are worth it.
Bring on a sequel!

The Best Moments From The 2016 NBA Finals
We're pretty lucky, aren't we? For the third straight year, the teams that have given us intriguing subplots, pulled off ingenious roster moves and made us question — or at least discuss — "best ever" are meeting in the Finals. The Cavs and the Warriors bring everything to the table, and this one should be epic. Can it top last year's seven-game masterpiece, though? Before we find that out, let's relive one of the most compelling Finals ever through its 10 greatest plays.
LeBron dunks on Marreese Speights
Apologies in advance for the plethora of LeBron highlights. But when someone averages 30, 11 and 9 (as well as over two steals and two blocks) and wins Finals MVP, he has to show up on this list a lot.
LeBron had plenty of blow-by dunks this series, so this list wouldn't be complete without one, and this one had special meaning. In case you forgot, Klay Thompson told LeBron this is a "man's league" and "he got his feelings hurt" after Game 4. Ayesha Curry even talked trash. But Mo Speights was succinct: He tweeted out a baby bottle emoji. And then LeBron destroyed him. And won three games in a row, starting with Game 5. Man, this series was great.
Klay from deeeeeeeeeeeeep
In the aforementioned Game 5, Klay had 26 points in the first half, including these three from way downtown. LeBron was one point behind at 25 at the break. The game was tied at 61. What more could you want? Also, it's a good thing the NBA hasn't implemented the four-pointer yet, because the Warriors would be even better if it existed.
23 Reasons To Be Excited For Warriors-Cavs III
LeBron's steal and slam
Did LeBron travel on this play? Maybe. Is LeBron's head at the same height as the rim? Absolutely. This was vicious.
Draymond over the shoulder to Steph
Much like Green's performance in this series as a whole, this play really flew under the radar. How does he see Steph, much less make this pass at this angle right on the money? Draymond, quite frankly, was brilliant in the six games he did play and not-quite-so-brilliant when he got suspended for one. This pass was on par with any Steve Nash highlight you'll ever see.
Kyrie makes Steph dance
File this one under "unguardable." Kyrie going downhill and then stopping on a dime while going between his legs and behind his back? Yes, it has Curry backpedaling into oblivion, but it's a minor miracle that the reigning MVP didn't fall over completely and burst into dust. This move is unfair.
The Curse Of LeBron James: It All Looks So Easy
LeBron's block and staredown
This is when you knew. Looking back, you knew the title was LeBron's when he tossed Steph's layup aside like a volleyball. But the block isn't enough to get this into the Top 10. The trash talk and staredown after is. Of course, Twitter had a field day.
Steph steps back on Kyrie
Everyone remembers the other Steph vs. Kyrie stepback three (SPOILER ALERT: It's coming), but this one was very important as well. The Cavs had cut what was a 20-point deficit to just 11 with more than enough time to pull off an incredible Game 1 comeback, and the Oracle Arena crowd was getting antsy. Then came Steph to the rescue, hitting a stepback three over the opposing point guard. The Warriors won by 15.
Shaun Livingston dunks on Richard Jefferson
Shaun Livingston with the hammer! The Warriors' lanky guard showed no mercy in Game 5, yamming all over Richard Jefferson. This might have been the best dunk of the series, and boy was it a good one. Both men are still on their respective teams, so could Livingston-Jefferson 2.0 be in the making? Probably not, but we can always hope.
LeBron blocks Andre Iguodala
Forget the implications of this block for a second and just pause the video a few times as Curry and Iguodala run the break. When Iguodala catches Steph's bounce pass at the elbow, LeBron is behind the three-point line. When Iguodala gathers for the layup, LeBron is at the opposite elbow. And then, somehow, someway, he makes the block that might have saved his team's season and his own legacy. Oops, looks like I've slipped into implications. How can you not? Kyrie hit the biggest shot of the season, but LeBron had the iconic play. Also, give J.R. Smith some credit for at least altering Iguodala's path. James doesn't make this block without his teammate's effort.
Kyrie over Steph
People are quick to forget that Game 7 had turned incredibly ragged near the end. Instead of two of the best teams ever trading buckets, they traded aimless, sloppy possessions that ended in misses. Over the final four-and-a-half minutes, the teams, clearly exhausted, combined to go 1 of 17 from the field.
Good thing for Cleveland, this was the one. Comeback complete.
Narrowing this list down to 10 was nearly impossible, and plenty of great plays just barely missed the cut. Let's hope for just as good of a series this time around.

The algorithms for CALWEBB_SPEC3, the 3rd stage of the JWST calibration pipeline for spectroscopic data, are described. These algorithms process the data from calibrated slope images to combined spectral data (2D or 3D) and extracted spectra.
On this page
The CALWEBB_SPEC3 module is the 3rd stage in the calibration pipeline for spectroscopic data. The inputs to this stage are the calibrated slope images (CALWEBB_SPEC2 output) and the output is combined 2D images/3D spectral cubes and extracted spectra. The steps are listed in Figure 1 with the flow from the top to the bottom.
Unless otherwise stated, the algorithms described are the baseline version.
NIR/MIR steps
Master background subtraction
See also: Master Background Subtraction (more detailed software module documentation)
The background can be improved over the CALWEBB_SPEC2 step under the assumption that the background does not change across the field of view. With this assumption, a high signal-to-noise spectrum of the background can be measured by averaging over the spatial dimension(s). Then the master background spectrum can be used to create the equivalent 2D background image for subtraction from the target exposures. This step would be done instead of the CALWEBB_SPEC2 background subtraction step. When to do master background subtraction versus background subtraction is still to-be-decided. Hence this step is an optimal pipeline step.
Outlier detection
See also: Outlier Detection (more detailed software module documentation)
A 2nd pass at outlier detection is done using the overlapping regions observed in different exposures. The majority of the outliers will be due to cosmic rays undetected during the 1st pass at outlier detection done in CALWEBB_DETECTOR1. The presence of an outlier results in a pixel flag being set.
Cube creation
See also: Cube Building (more detailed software module documentation)
Combinations of dithered spectral observations are done in 2D and 3D as appropriate. 2D images (spectral versus spatial) are created for NIRSpec Fixed Slit/MIRI LRS nodded observations, NIRSpec MSA data taken with shutters above/below, and NIRISS/NIRCam WFSS dithered observations. 3D images (spectral versus ra/dec) are created for NIRSpec and MIRI IFU and MIRI LRS observations taken with cross-slit steps. The combination is done in a single step/interpolation to avoid propagating noise through multiple interpolations.
Note that moving targets are supported and the cubes are created in the moving target reference frame.
Create exposure level products
See also: Resampling (more detailed software module documentation)
The exposure level products are re-created at this stage to provide the highest quality products that include the results of the ensemble processing (updated WCS, matching backgrounds, a 2nd pass outlier detection). These products are for the archive and include the rectified 2D (spatial versus spectral, all except IFUs) or 3D (spectral cubes, IFUs) products
Spectral extraction
See also: Extract 1D (more detailed software module documentation)
For point sources, the extraction is done using a boxcar (2D data) or circular aperture (3D data) with local background subtraction measured from apertures outside the extraction aperture.
For extended sources, the extraction is done with rectangular apertures with no local background subtraction.
The extraction of spectra is done from the rectified observations for the baseline pipeline. An optimal version of spectral extraction that extracts directly from the unrectified data is under investigation.
MIR steps
Background matching
The background levels in observations can vary as a function of time due to the thermal telescope emission, zodiacal emission, etc. This step corrects the overall level of each spectral cube so that the overlapping regions between exposures have the same background. This step is only done for MIRI IFU observations.
Residual fringe correction
The correction for fringes in CALWEBB_SPEC2 uses a static calibration reference file. The fringes change slightly between observations due to the exact placement of the source in the IFU slices. A residual fringe correction is made by fitting the residual fringes in each spatial pixel using a model that is constrained to only have certain spatial frequencies. This step is only done for MIRI IFU observations.
Spectral leak subtraction
The MIRI IFU observations have a spectral leak in channel 3A at 12.2 μm due to 2nd order light at 6.1 μm with a throughput of ~2%. If observations exist for band 1B, an appropriately scaled 1B extracted spectrum is subtracted from the extracted 3A spectrum.

The Foley follies
One disingenuous argument floated by the GOP mouthpieces a few days ago was that, gosh, they couldn't come down hard on Mark Foley for "over-friendly" e-mails because, gee whiz, they'd get accused of being anti-gay, and they're really not like that. That's total bull, of course—the party that pushes a constitutional amendment to forestall same-sex marriage is concerned about not coming off as anti-gay? Sorry, not buying it.
Another issue relating to this is that the problem wasn't that Foley is gay, it's that he made inappropriate advances to kids. For more on this distinction and the scapegoating of homosexuality in a case that's not about homosexuality, read Joe Solmonese's essay at the Huffington Post. Solmonese is the president of the Human Rights Campaign. He writes, in part (echoing my own thoughts):
The same GOP leaders who are trying to write gay people out of the Constitution chose not to investigate inappropriate sexual behavior because they were worried that they might be branded as homophobic? This has nothing to do with homophobia. This is about the sexual solicitation of teenagers. In fact, The Journal of the American Medical Association found that 90 percent of pedophiles are men, and that 98 percent of those men are heterosexual.
There's plenty more to say about Foley, Hastert, and the GOP media machine, but it's all been said elsewhere. Just wanted to remind you that homosexuality and homophobia are not at issue here, and those who suggest they're pertinent are trying to create a smokescreen. Turn on the fan and blow that smoke away, will you?

I totally agree with you, as usual, but this reminds me of another thing about this whole brouhaha that bugs me. Do you notice how the media that have a more conservative bent keep calling the pages "children," when the same sources, if a sixteen year old commits a crime, will say "youth" or even "man" and argue for him being tried as an adult and getting the death penalty?
I say, a child's a child. (Though if two pages want to get it on, more power to them.)

Good point, doctormama.

I too was amazed at this line of argument on their part - though not surprised. How they try to be clever and slip in a fall guy. The saddest part is how many people fall for it and who cannot make a distinction between gay and pedophile. Hello? Get with the times and read. Thank you Orange, great post.
