The Language of Stone
Linked with Robert Bauval – Egypt & Belgium.
Published on Dreamscape, by Robert Bauval, not dated.
The Great Sphinx of Giza is probably the world's best known relic from the distant past. It is shrouded in mystery.
The Sphinx is not built with quarried blocks like the pyramids and temples it guards, but carved out of the living bedrock. Its makers gave it a man's head (some say it's a woman) and the body of a lion. It is 66′ high and an impressive 240′ long. It has the most extraordinary expression, like a hundred Mona Lisas all rolled into one. And its eyes gaze forever at the distant horizon due east, at the equinox point, at something not of this world but beyond it, in the sky. Something, perhaps, that is reflected or "frozen" in the essence and age of the Sphinx.
Nothing can prepare a first-time visitor for the awe-inspiring experience of meeting the Great Sphinx face to face. No matter who you are, no matter what your disposition and temperament, the Great Sphinx will not leave you unmoved. John A. West knows this phenomenon well. He has stood in the shadow of this great statue many a time since he started visiting Egypt some thirty years ago. To him the Sphinx had always appeared as a monument apart, and much, much older than anything else he had seen either at Giza or elsewhere.
West's strong "gut feeling" had rarely let him down. One day, while reading a book on Egypt by the French author and mathematician Schwaller de Lubicz (Sacred Science, Paris 1961) an answer to his intuitive hunch came shooting straight at him. Schwaller made a passing remark on what appeared to be water erosion on the body of the Sphinx. Turning to a close-up photograph of the Sphinx, West suddenly realized that the weathering patterns on the Sphinx were not horizontal as seen on other monuments at Giza, but vertical. Now, horizontal weathering is the result of prolonged exposure to strong winds and sandstorms. There sure had been plenty of those in this arid region of the Sahara. Could water have caused the vertical weathering on the Sphinx? Water from where? …
… The whole complex was obviously very ancient and almost certainly contemporary with the Sphinx. But what could its function have been? And what was the purpose of the underground waterway? According to a prominent Ancient Egyptian myth, the legendary gates of the Afterworld were guarded by two gigantic lions or sphinxes called Aker. In New Kingdom tomb drawings, the aker-sphinx of the eastern gate sits with its hind parts in a hollow. Underneath it can be seen a curious underground stream or duct. Behind the lion towers a huge mound or pyramid, and under it is found a large, oval chamber which appears to be hermetically sealed.
In this mysterious chamber is said to be some lofty secret, no doubt from the "Gods" who ruled the land of Egypt during the remote epoch of Zep Tepi, the First Time. This strange chamber was called the "House of Sokar" in Rostau. The resemblance to the Sphinx complex at Giza is uncanny. Giza in ancient times was also called Rostau, and Sokar (a hawk-headed deity) was identified with Osiris. Odd coincidences? Perhaps. Or will astronomy make "a lucky turn of the spade" that will convert this supposedly cosmic myth into an historical reality? (full text).

Threats prompt searches of students in Putnam
PUTNAM, Conn. (AP) -- Putnam officials say police will be searching middle school students' belongings before they enter school because of three bomb threats and a gun threat in recent weeks.
Parents of Putnam Middle School students have been notified that the searches will begin Monday morning.
Police say there have been three handwritten threats about bombs and a fourth written threat saying a gun would be brought to the middle school. Teens have been arrested in connection with three of the threats, and police say an arrest is pending in the fourth threat.
Anyone with information about the threats is urged to call Putnam police.

Birchip Cropping Group receives $210,000 state government grant to build microgrid at its facility
BIRCHIP Cropping Group has received a $210,000 state government grant to help develop a new microgrid demonstration project at its facility.
A microgrid is a small network of electricity users with a local supply of power that can function independently of the electricity grid.
BCG business development and innovation manager Cameron Taylor said the group had worked on the proposal for six months.
"What our microgrid will comprise of will be solar PV panels and a battery component; the solar panels will be able to generate 51 klilowatts and the batteries can store a maximum of 137 kilowatts," he said.
"The idea behind the microgrid is giving our business power security that is not reliant on the grid; it also gives us total control where we want to use our power from.
"If the grid power was cheaper then we could still use the grid's power; or the over way around, we will be able to sell back into the grid when the prices are high."
The project will be led by SwitchDin to provide a working demonstration of microgrid technology.
SwitchDin will work with Birchip Cropping Group and Walnut Energy Systems to deliver the $319,000 project, which has the potential to be used as a model for other farms and businesses across the state.
"We're excited for the build to start after many months of working on the project with our partners," he said.
"The bit we're really excited about is trialing new technology to engage with farming communities and broader business. It gives an opportunity for people within the community to come and look at the new technology.
"We also plan to hold workshops for people to learn about the technology to find ways to make their businesses not as risky and to offer them lower energy costs."
Energy, Environment and Climate Change Minister Lily D'Ambrosio said the project would help demonstrate the benefits of microgrids for farmers and businesses.
"These projects are part of our plan to drive down energy prices, reduce emissions and create a pipeline of investment in renewable energy," she said.

A Better Recess
Instead of going back to class energized and ready to learn after recess, kids often return upset and unable to focus. We can change this. At a great recess:
Kids are at their best
Kids bring out the best in themselves and each other. They learn the value of fair play, compassion, and respect. They practice key social and emotional skills.
Kids become leaders
They run their own games and settle their disputes quickly (we recommend rock, paper, scissors) because getting along is more fun than fighting.
Kids choose to be active
When all students are included and all students know how to play popular games, every child has the opportunity to discover the joy of active play.

How did you start up and which were your beginnings?
My mother was a concert pianist who also played professional clarinet and sax. My father played guitar and mandolin. I played many instruments starting with guitar. By the early 60's I was jamming with American folk and country musicians from the "Grand Ol Opry" on armonica and deeply immersed in guitar, flamenco, and ragas with the musicians that came through Cambridge. Joan Baez, José Feliciano, Fred Neil, Tim Hardin, Sonny Terry, Lightnin' Hopkins, Josh White Jr., Karen Dalton, Buffy St. Marie, Sandy Bull, Hamza El Din were all part of the rich panorama of talent that came through Cambridge in the early 60's.
You did Cambridge and the Village. Which of them you'd say it had an opener path in order to develop your guitar expression?
Cambridge had the musicians and the jamming exchange of musical ideas, but living and studying in Spain changed my playing and my life. The village in the mid 60's was the gateway to having new music heard and recorded.
I read an interview with the Native American actress/songwriter Sharmagne Sylbert and she placed you in California with the Orient Express, a band with Bruce Langhorne and Lowell George…
I played regularly with Bruce Langhorne in NY, and rehearsed for a few weeks in LA with Lowell George for a group benefit for the "Diggers" under the name "the fabulous flipped out no-names", which was promoted by the Beatles press agent Derek Taylor. I enjoyed playing with Lowell. He was a great talent. I also played a lot with Colin Walcott during those years but never released a record with him.
You directed, musical-wise, the Timothy Leary "Celebrations". Can you explain, what were they exactly?
I met Tim Leary through mutual friends at Harvard. The "Celebrations" were exactly that. 5000 people at a time would come together to hear Tim talk about "the liberation of the mind" and I composed, arranged and played the music that went with it. Tim Leary was a great mind. His free thinking about internal personal freedom and his interest in inner and outer space exploration stretched the imagination in healthy ways.
Did you know or see playing other guitar soloists as John Fahey, Robbie Basho or Sandy Bull?
I admired John Fahey, met Robbie Basho, and hung out and played with Sandy Bull. I met Sandy during the Cambridge days, and often saw and played with him in NY. I met Hamza El Din (the oud player) through Sandy. Sandy Bull was a true pioneer on the path of Fusion.
When were you dealt by Vanguard Records and how did you meet the producer Sam Charters?
I met Maynard Solomon (the head of Vanguard) in 1965 and recorded in 1966 – Sam Charters was assigned by Vanguard.
In "Rainy Day Raga" you were backed by a great personnel…
Bruce Langhorne, Monte Dunn, Jeremy Steig and I were working regularly together in midtown gigs before and after the "Rainy day Raga" sessions. You could hear us almost any night on WBAI radio in NY. Also played many benefits together. The album was a great moment in time captured on vinyl. Passionate musicians creating quite beautiful moments and then shifting to a driving musical energy force. Jeremy was great on flute. Monte -on acoustic guitar- "filled in the holes" and added a steel string driving force and Bruce was great playing African tambourines. It really was one of the first "Fusion" albums.
Were there any concerts for presenting "Rainy Day Raga" live?
We played it often with the same people before during and after the Vanguard sessions. It was my usual "pick up" band (the guys I usually played with.) Some gigs were solo, but when a band was required I always used the same people until we all went our separate ways in life.
Did you know Fred Neil in the Village before you arrived in Woodstock?
Freddy would come into my shop in Boston in the early 60s. There were many musical circles then. I think I first met Fred at the Golden Vanity in Boston in 1960. Joan Baez was working there and at the Club 47 in Cambridge, so was Freddy.
By the late 60's you also settled down in Woodstock…
My memories are like dreams, poorly articulated but warm and fuzzy with images of Freddy's cabin that Howard Solomon built for him in Woodstock. Howard was a good man and a real friend. I remember Fred sitting in a circle passing tunes around, I remember a session with Karen Dalton and Tim Hardin, a ¨Power Summit¨ along with Monte Dunn – great artists who supported other artist's. At this point 9n my life to achieve the alocadde, like Freddy, of being an Artist's Artist.
Did you attend any of Fred's recordings?
The only recording session of Freddy that I ever attended was the ¨Sessions¨. I have thinking about the "sessions" with Freddy. It was (for me) almost surreal. LA was wrapped in one of those fog like mists, that made the round (record shaped) Capitol Records Building. Look like a Dali Painting from the Hollywood Freeway. I remember approaching the building, it was the third night of what had been continuous, with breaks for food and a little sleep, and word had gotten around the city that something special was happening.
Approaching the doors to the huge first floor studio I could see a sea of heads inside. The place looked enormous, it seemed like if they were several hundred people there. The room was almost dark except for a pool of light in the center. Fred Neil was sitting in a straight backed armless chair with mikes in front and was bent over his instrument with all the people standing and watching in rapt absolute silence. Freddy's mellow voice was casting a spell over all those there and it seemed over the city of Los Angeles as well. Looking around I saw other musicians, actors, exotic "birds of the night", Music lovers, Fans, Industry Pros, ordinary people from every spectrum of the "60s World".
We all shared that marvellous experience that night and as you can see we still talk about it today. Three days ago I was approached by a man at the "Feria de Mundo" (Worlds Fair of Flamenco, Córdoba) who had heard me play in a cave in Granada years ago and told me the neighborhood still talks about "la noche del Alto" (the night of the tall one). These moments are the special one in a musicians life. Reflecting in later years it is the memory of these moments that shines brightest in our thoughts. I think of Freddy and sometimes play his cds in my huge studio and the place is all the more cavernous and empty without his physical presence. His spirit is alive and well in his music and he is an inspiration to do more recording.

I didn't have time to really blog last week. I didn't get to do any of the memes I've been participating in , so I apologize!!!
Joey got really sick last week and then Jr. got sick (they are both still getting over their bad colds...) All this happened while I was trying to get everything ready for my Mary Kay holiday party that I held on Saturday at my Mom's house. But I got everything done and had a fun, succesful party!
That Saturday my little man, Joshua, was crying because he knew I was leaving the house. Jr. came to him and wiped the tears off his face! Even though Jr. was sick he still came to take care of his little brother when he was sad. I found that so sweet and touching!
Julia was my little helper at the party. She practically took over the whole thing and everyone loved her outgoing personality! My Mom even said I didn't have to do much because Julia was such a good little sales person.
I'm hoping to be able to blog more this week . I have a blog tour that I am hoping to participate in and a few other things that I think might be cool for this blog.
Hope everyone had a great weekend!

We've been getting quotes for an English to Spanish translation from various agencies. Some are saying they will charge us based on the number of words in the source document which I understand to mean our English document? and some say they will charge us based on the number words in the target document which I think is the translated document?
I see from your website that you charge based on the source document, why is this and what's the advantages and disadvantages of doing this please?
Hi Belen,
Thanks for your question. I know this can be a bit confusion so I'll try to clarify.
First of all I think it's useful to define the terms.
You are perfectly correct, the source document is the document which you have in your hand which needs translating and the target document refers to the completed Spanish translation.
Some agencies quote on the number of words in the target document but we always quote on the number of words in the source document to be translated.
Advantages of quoting on the source translation document
The advantage of quoting based on the number of words in the source document is it allows us to give you certainty.
As you have the document in front of you we can analyse it and give you a quote which we can be confident will not change.
Disadvantages of quoting on the target translation document
The problem with quoting on the number of words in the target translated document is we have no way of knowing how many words it will contain until the document has actually been translated.
This is due to a phenomenon known as translation word growth caused by the difference in the number of words required to say the same thing in two different languages.
For instance the English "waffle maker" (2 words) translated into Romanian is "aparat de făcut waffe" (3 words) and translated into Italian is "macchina per fare i waffle" (4 words!).
Word growth means that you may accept a lower quote based on the number of target words only to find out the job ends up costing you more than a quote for the same job based on the number of words in the source document.
Also, if the translator is being paid by the number of words they produce then you are incentivising them to produce long-winded copy when you're paying for a concise, accurate translation.
Finally, we use translation memory tools which enable us to offer discounts for segments of documents where there are matches or partial matches.
If we charged on the number of words in the target document we would have no idea what level of discount we could give you until the work had been done which means uncertainty in your quote.
Why it's best to charge for translation the the number of source words
In summary, charging for translation based on the number of words in the source document allows us to be certain of giving you the lowest price quote possible whilst being confident we can deliver on that promise.
We know our customers don't like surprises when it comes to price and so always quote on the number of source words.

Sciatica Yuliya Mutsa PTA 236 Sciatica • is a common type of pain affecting the sciatic nerve, which extends from the lower back all the way through the back of the thigh and down through the leg. Depending on where the sciatic nerve is affected, the pain may also extend to the foot or toes. Usually only one side of the lower body is affected. Causes • Sciatica most commonly occurs when a herniated disk or a bone spur on the spine compresses part of the nerve causing inflammation, pain and numbness in the affected leg. • Irritation of the roots of the lower lumbar and lumbosacral spine • Lumbar spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal) • Degenerative disc disease (breakdown of discs, which act as cushions between the vertebrae) • Spondylolisthesis (a condition in which one vertebra slips forward over another one) • Piriformis Syndrome • More rarely, the nerve can be compressed by a tumor or damaged by a disease such as diabetes. What are the symptoms? • Pain - vary widely from a mild ache to a sharp, burning sensation or excruciating discomfort. Sometimes it may feel like a jolt or electric shock. It may be worse when you cough or sneeze, and prolonged sitting can aggravate symptoms. • Tingling, weakness and numbness • Difficulty moving the leg or foot Statistics • Sciatica is relatively common affecting 15% to 40% people during their lifetime. This incidence is related to age, rare before 20 y/o,the highest incidence is found in the fifth decade and then decreases with increasing age. Regular walking also was found to increase the incidence of sciatica. In addition, occupations with greater physical labor, such as carpenters and machine operators, have a higher likelihood of developing sciatica compared to less mobile office workers. Risk factors for sciatica include: • • • • • Age Obesity Occupation Prolonged sitting Diabetes affects the way your body uses blood sugar, increases your risk of nerve damage. Complications • • • • Nerve damage Loss of feeling in the affected leg Weakness in the affected leg Loss of bowel or bladder function Diagnosis • The most applied diagnostic test is the straight leg raise to produce Lasègue's sign, which is considered positive if pain in the distribution of the sciatic nerve is reproduced with between 30 and 70 degrees passive flexion of the straight leg. While this test is positive in about 90% of people with sciatica, approximately 75% of people with a positive test do not have sciatica. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEm9TzkVP QQ • Imaging tests such as CT or MRI can help with the diagnosis of lumbar disc herniation. Treatments and drugs • Medications: Anti-inflammatory, Muscle relaxants. • Steroid injections: Corticosteroids help reduce pain by suppressing inflammation around the irritated nerve. • Surgery • Physical therapy (see next slide) • Accupuncture • Chiropractic Physical Therapy • Posture correction - Pay special attention to your core muscles — the muscles in your abdomen and lower back that are essential for proper posture and alignment. • Back support • Good body mechanics Physical Therapy • Exercise is usually better for relieving sciatic pain than bed rest. Patients may rest for a day or two after their sciatic pain flares up, but after that time period, inactivity will usually make the pain worse. • Without exercise and movement, the back muscles and spinal structures become weak and less able to support the back, that can lead to back injury and strain, which causes additional pain. • Active exercise is important for the health of the spinal discs. Movement helps exchange nutrients and fluids within the discs to keep them healthy and prevent pressure on the sciatic nerve. Exercises • Incorporate strengthening, stretching and aerobic activities -they are central components of almost any sciatica treatment plan. • Stretching is usually recommended to alleviate sciatic pain (Piriformis and hamstrings) • Strengthen the spinal column and the supporting muscles, ligaments and tendons,the abdominal muscles, gluteus and hip muscles. (McKenzie exercises and Dynamic Lumbar Stabilization) Piriformis/hamstring stretch McKenzie Dynamic Lumbar Stabilization Physical Therapy • Ultrasound– decrease healing time and relieve stiff and inflexible muscles by improving the circulation and gently heating the muscles. • Massage –deep and firm massage will not only help soothe those cramped muscles but can actually make the nerves and ligaments both relax. • Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation – In some cases using a very small and controlled amount of electricity can decrease the intensity and number of muscle spasms and can help release pain blocking endorphins, much like aerobics.

This life-threatening condition affects nearly 6 million Americans
Did you know that roughly six million people in the U.S. have an unruptured brain aneurysm? That's 1 in 50 people.
Of those, around 30,000 of them will suffer a brain aneurysm rupture, according to the Brain Aneurysm Foundation.
A rupture occurs when the aneurysm causes the blood vessel to bulge to the point of bursting. When it bursts, internal bleeding occurs over the surface and sometimes within the brain. In approximately 40 percent of those cases, a rupture is fatal. Those who survive have an equally similar chance of suffering permanent disability or having no lasting damage at all, says Dr. Dean Karahalios, medical director of The Brain & Spine Institute and a neurosurgeon at Advocate Lutheran General Hospital in Park Ridge, Ill.
Prognosis depends primarily upon the severity of the hemorrhage and the patient's neurological status when they arrive at the hospital.
"The key is to get the rupture under control so it doesn't hemorrhage again, which can happen immediately after the initial rupture," says Dr. Karahalios.
Surgeons have several possibilities for treating brain aneurysms, but it's dependent on the location, size, shape and the patient's condition. In most cases, Dr. Karahalios says his team uses a minimally invasive procedure called endovascular coiling to block blood from flowing into the aneurysm, therefore stopping its growth and eliminating the risk of rupture. In some cases, neurosurgeons will perform an open operation for microsurgical clipping, in which a metal clip is used to block the blood supply to the aneurysm from the outside of the vessel. Both procedures can be performed on ruptured or unruptured aneurysms.
"In the case of a ruptured aneurysm, patients can expect to stay in the ICU for up to three weeks following their procedure," says Dr. Karahalios.
Dr. Karahalios says that while patients are out of danger for another hemorrhage after surgery or coiling, they are not out of the woods yet. A condition called vasospasm occurs when the blood from the initial hemorrhage irritates the blood vessels feeding the brain, causing them to clamp down and cut off the blood supply to areas of the brain leading to stroke. Intensive observation and medical treatment is required to minimize this risk.
From there, the severity of the damage caused by the rupture determines the care and rehabilitation services individuals receive. Those with the most severe damage may be moved to a long-term care facility or nursing home. Those who suffer less severe and minimal damage spend an intense few weeks with physical, occupational and speech therapists to help them recover.
"It's best if an aneurysm is caught before it ruptures," says Dr. Karahalios. "If you have a strong family history of aneurysms, you should undergo screening."
These services are provided at many Advocate facilities. Learn more about the Advocate Brain & Spine Institute and its services and screenings such as the minimally invasive MRA here.

Dr. Grobelny is a very dedicated doctor who treats patients with this neurovascular issue. He is amazing!.
1 in 50 people is quite significant!!! How about screenings for everyone????
You can get yourself screened for AAA. Is there a test comparable to screen for brain aneurysms?

Scouts in Clay Center / United Methodist Church
Goal: $6,000.00
Specific Need
As with most organizations working with the youth, we welcome youth (kindergarten thru age 18), adults volunteers and financial support.
Donations are used to reduce the costs of scouting for the local Scouts. Interested in helping?
Scouts is a family oriented program for young girls and young boys. The traditional Scouting Units are Cub Scouting, for ages 5 to 11 years, and Scouts BSA, for ages 11 to 18. The program provides fun, adventure, learning, challenges, and teaches responsibility while helping them become the best version of themselves and good citizens.
The two local Scouting units exist through a partnership between the Clay Center United Methodist Church and Boy Scouts of America for developing the youth of this community. This partnership has existed for about 50 years. The stated mission of the Boy Scouts of America is to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them good values. Youth are instructed in responsible citizenship, character development, and self-reliance through participation in a wide range of outdoor activities such as camping, aquatics and hiking along with various educational programs.
Adult Volunteer opportunities:
Cub Scouts and Scouts BSA are always looking for adult volunteers. From Unit Committee members, who help with the administrative tacks, to trained Leaders who guide the Scouts through their journey in Scouting. Scouting is a wonderful way for an adult to give back to the community by guiding its youth to adulthood. The local units together use about 25 adult volunteers in their programs ever year plus Scout parents.

Singing is good for you!
Welcome to Singer Train's first blog – 2017. I thought I would start by discussing why singing is a great way to keep healthy and happy. There is already a lot of research published to support this claim and may be old news to some but for the people out there who haven't thought of singing in this way, this is for you!
I have been singing and teaching singing for most of my adult life and although I didn't sing to keep fit and stay in a good mood; now looking back, I realise that my physical fitness and sense of well being which has been pretty consistant is alot to do with the fact that I sang most days. However, for the last few years I have been working for the University in an office so sang less and I know my emotional and physical energy has definately dropped with the change of life-style. Happily, now that I am devoting all my time again to performing and teaching – hey presto! - life is rosy once more! Of course, many people aren't lucky enough to devote all their time to singing, but introducing singing and making music into your life in some way I am sure will reap rewards.
So, down to the nitty-gritty – what is the science behind this in a nut shell? I must say straight away that the power of music obviously has an important part to play although researchers have said that passive listening to music alone doesn't give such a positive response than actively taking part, whether it is singing, dancing or playing an instrument with others. When doing the latter, endorphins are released; these hormones can greatly increase the sense of pleasure achieved through participatory activities. Also, cortisol levels reduce and therefore stress and anxiety dissasipate; singing has been identified by the medical profession to be a theraputic tool to help people suffering from depression.
Singing is an aerobic activity, the same as playing a wind instrument which increases the oxygen levels in the blood and therefore improves lung and heart activity and improves the immune system. When singing you engage with major muscle groups of the upper body such as the intercostals and abdominals, giving them a great workout when controlling the breath out-flow to create vocal resonance. You are also working to improve your posture, lengthening your spine and releasing any unnecessary tensions which inhibit movement.
Finally, whether you are singing in a small group or large choir, the act of sharing increases a sense of social integration and well being. Evidence suggests that singers heart rates can sync when singing together and also the hormone oxytocin, often referred to as the 'cuddle hormone' increases when singing in the same way as when bonding with another person and therefore promotes a sense of connectivity with others. Recent research suggests that oxytocin even gives us a sense of connecting spiritually to a higher source which might explain why singing is so prominant in religious practice.

I'll definitely be looking into this Sarah. My singing is much neglected, but is something I really enjoy when I find the time. Advice on how to approach the first lesson would be great. I've been reluctant to take that first step for fear of embarrassment - pathetic I know, but a real concern nonetheless!
Hi David, this is a totally natural reaction due primarily to the fact that most of us are so critical of our own voices and it is really confronting to stand up and sing to another person. Most people cultivate an ideal of what they would like to sound like and are often disappointed when listening back to a recording of their voice. Also, a lot of us have had negative reactions to our singing at some point in our childhood and therefore become terribly self-conscious of singing to anybody.

Pulse Discharge Control and Machine Protection for a Multi-Discharge Compulsator
MetadataShow full item record
A compensated pulse alternator (compulsator) to power railgun research experiment has been designed and built. The author presents the control design considerations and strategies used in the control of proper output pulses and the detection and clearing of faults. Since the compulsator is designed for limited pulse duty, particular emphasis is placed on reliability and redundancy in the fault-control system to avert potentially massive generator damage. The circuit has provided reliable performance through the system testing. Other circuits, designed to protect the compulsator from short-circuit fault damage, have also been successfully implemented

The Beginning
Like many others who live with bipolar disorder, my journey began early in life. It was 1980. I was a college freshman; five hundred miles away from home and in a very high stress environment. I had a history of alcohol use from high school but, when I entered college, I was introduced to marijuana. Initially it was fun, but as time went on, it served to help me cope with the many stressors I experienced. Weed simply served to accelerate the problems I was experiencing.
As a result of the academic rigor, lack of a viable support system, and chemical abuse, I experienced a perfect storm of circumstances that led to my first psychotic break which included persecutory delusions, auditory hallucinations, and a suicide attempt which led to me to being in a catatonic state. I was discovered by the college Residence Hall Director and taken to the local hospital's psychiatric emergency room.

For our last post on 8-bit MCUs and the IoT, take a look at this infographic exploring why these simpler processors have a big part to play in the future of the IoT. Spoiler alert—it's all about the nature of IoT devices and versatility.
Today's interconnected IoT ecosystem favors IC devices with a wide variety of interfaces since the heterogeneous nature of the embedded marketplace requires these devices to be able to converse in as many "dialects" as possible.
A significant number of IoT applications are "thin client" in nature. This is what makes them a natural fit for an 8-bit machine with limited flash and onboard RAM. For example, most sensor applications where voltages/currents must be sensed and operated upon and then transmitted upstream are suited to an 8-bit machine. Examples include gas and oxygen sensors in connected home applications and pressure sensors in commercial/industrial applications.
Simple control applications are also better suited to 8-bit rather than 32-bit machines, especially if complex real-time I/O manipulation is necessary. Specifically, the 8051 architecture allows fast I/O bit manipulation with concurrent logical operations, which is useful in control applications.
These applications are usually very space- and power-sensitive, which also plays to the strengths of 8-bit devices such as the high-speed 8051 MCUs from Silicon Labs. Note that various ARM Cortex-M series devices can also play in these applications, but, given the board area and power and real-time limitations of the systems, an 8-bit machine with a more deterministic execution model will perform better.
Explore our full family of exceptional 8-bit MCUs.

Dong Son culture
|Part of a series on
|Prehistoric and ancient cultures of Vietnam
|Sơn Vi culture (20,000–12,000 BC)
|Hoabinhian (12,000–10,000 BC)
|Bronze Age
|Iron Age
The Dong Son culture or the Lạc Việt culture (named for Đông Sơn, a village in Vietnam) was a Bronze Age culture in ancient Vietnam centred at the Red River Valley of northern Vietnam from 1000 BC until the first century AD.[1]:207 It was the last great culture of Văn Lang and continued well into the period of the Âu Lạc state. Its influence spread to other parts of Southeast Asia, including Maritime Southeast Asia, from about 1000 BC to 1 BC.[2][3][4]
The Dong Son people, also known as Lạc or Lạc Việt, were skilled at cultivating rice, keeping water buffalos and pigs, fishing and sailing in long dugout canoes. They also were skilled bronze casters, which is evidenced by the Dong Son drum found widely throughout northern Vietnam and South China.
To the south of the Dong Son culture was the Sa Huỳnh culture of the proto-Chams.
According to some scholars, the Dong Son culture spoke Austroasiatic languages.[5][6][7][8][9]
Ferlus (2009) showed that the inventions of pestle, oar, and a pan to cook sticky rice, which is the main characteristic of the Đông Sơn culture, correspond to the creation of new lexicons for these inventions in Northern Vietic (Việt–Mường) and Central Vietic (Cuoi-Toum).[10] The new vocabularies to denote these inventions were proven to be derivatives from original verbs rather than borrowed lexical items. The current distribution of Northern Vietic also correspond to the area of Dong Son culture. Thus, Ferlus conclude that the Dongsonian culture was of Vietic origin and they were the direct ancestors of modern Vietnamese people.[10]
Furthermore, John Phan (2013, 2016)[11][12] argues that "Annamese Middle Chinese" and northern Vietic was spoken in the Red River Valley; and AMC was later absorbed into the coexisting Proto-Viet-Muong, one of whose divergent dialect evolved into Vietnamese language.[13]
The origins of Dong Son culture may be traced back to ancient bronze castings. However, according to archaeological discoveries in Isan, Thailand in the 1970s, the casting of bronze began in Southeast Asia first.[14] The Dong Son bronze industry has a local origin, equivalent in timing to the Gò Mun culture, 700-500 BC. This includes bronze axes, spearheads and knives.
The bronze drums were used for war, "the chief summons the warriors of the tribe by beating the drum", when mourning, and during feasts. "The scenes cast onto the drums would inform us that the Dong Son leaders had access to bronze founders of remarkable skill." Lost-wax casting was based on Chinese founders, but the scenes are local, including drummers and other musicians, warriors, rice processing, birds, deer, war vessels, and geometric designs.[1]:200–202
The bronze drums were made in significant proportions in northern Vietnam and parts of Yunnan. The Dong Son bronze drums exhibit "remarkable skill". The Cổ Loa drum weighs 72 kilograms (159 lb) and would have required the smelting of between 1 and 7 tonnes (1.1 and 7.7 tons) of copper ore.[1]:200

Us mere mortals only dream of spearfishing a big Wahoo, and when I say big lets be honest anything near 30kg is big. I guess Koos plays buy a different set of rules or something. I dont think any one told him that big was 30kg!! Or is it just that he likes the 'Bloody Big' category?
The funny thing is his son JP also likes the 'Bloody Big' Category and also got a big ..or should I say 'Bloody Big' Wahoo of 42kg also in the last week!!

How do the miniature coupons work?
All rewards for "custom miniature coupon(s)" are presented as coupons, and as such, are good indefinitely. This allows you to redeem at any point and even for future releases and features. The shipping included is good for one shipment though- so if you split up your purchase (which you can do!), you will have to pay for shipping again. Sorry…
Last updated: May 14, 2019 06:44
When will the Miniatures Ship?
Tricky question! Our full Character Foundry will be up and running August 1st, when we debut at Gen Con. We are currently gunning for a weeks turnaround (1-2 days to print, 3-6 days of shipping in the US), but a two week turnaround is a bit more likely (especially if we have a huge backlog).
It should be noted that we will be adding more and more items, races, weapons and… stuff(?) as time progress, so if you have a specific idea for your mini, look up our development schedule on our site!

How do I select more than one pledge goal?
In Kickstarter you can only really select one pledge goal, but no worries. If none of the pledge levels are just right, pick the one closest to what you want, and you can adjust upwards later in our backer kit.
Last updated: May 09, 2019 08:35
Retailers - What are the typical cost of an Eldritch Foundry miniature in a retail store?
Our current pricing point for a single mini is about MSRP 35$. The conditional marker base should add another 10$ on top of that. Oversized models will run you about 10$ extra.
We're still looking into "bits" pricing and quantities, so that's a big WIP right now.

Can we purchase STLs?
We're definitely going to offer STLs for download- it's a feature we'll be adding shortly after launch- not a huge deal to implement, it's just we're very focused on getting our system up and running first.

The difference is that in the Dark Temple tier you get to design 1 item of your choosing (say, a unique flaming glaive). In the Arcane Gate- a whole set of items (1 armor set, 1 weapon). It's pretty nifty :)

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign's project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn't work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit" in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project's status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.

Six months ago, I was unable to even run a mile due to a knee problem that had been recurrent for over 30 years. For no particular reason, other than fitness, I went for a short run at a local park. Just two laps of a football pitch almost killed me. My lungs couldn't have taken any more, even at a slow pace. I've never had any stamina problems throughout my whole life, and at 58 years-old, I decided I needed to do something about this before my fitness declined even further.
Now, six months on, I have altered my running technique to minimise impact on my joints and invested in my second pair of top quality running shoes. Yesterday, for the first time ever, I managed an unofficial half-marathon. The roughly four and a half laps of a circuit in Newport that I call The River Run, 13.1 miles (approx 21km) in total, was an enlightening experience. At first, I was just hoping that I would manage to complete it. This kind of distance, for me, is uncharted territory.
My favourite Brooks running shoes.
Only seven weeks after that very first lung-crushing experience six months ago, I managed a 10-mile run – my ability to build up stamina shone through and didn't let me down. But my enthusiasm became my downfall as my body had other ideas. This 10-mile run caused a significant injury to my right hip. It would be another two months before I'd be able to run seriously again. Even when I did manage it, I had to keep a check on my knee problem, as well as my hip.
I've discovered, through experimentation, that just turning my right foot inwards slightly while running has relieved the pain in my knee. Nonetheless, my joints still aren't able to take the pounding of a "full-on" hard run just yet, so for yesterday's half-marathon I adopted a walk/run strategy. I've had troubles with both hips, but they are much stronger now. I do much of my training in the gym at Bannatyne's Health Club. I can work on my stamina on the rowing machines or exercise bikes without any joint-damaging impact. I shift weights to strengthen my body. All this cross-training is almost as good as actually running in terms of the end result. During my hip injury, for two months I trained in the gym using non-impact equipment. I came out the other side fitter and stronger.
Just recently, I managed to secure a place in the London Marathon on 28th April 2019, representing The Brain and Spine Foundation team. It will be ten years to the month that I'd suffered a brain haemorrhage. What a way to celebrate it! I don't care how long it takes me. I just want to complete it. If I weren't plagued with injuries I'd be looking to complete in four hours. But I have to be realistic and accept that this is no longer feasible. However, managing a half marathon before we even reach Christmas has set me up well in my preparations. Most people haven't even started training yet. I have time to sit back and let my aches and pains heal before getting back in the gym to strengthen further and then get out and increase my running distance and speed. Six months ago, I would have considered all of this impossible.
Me in April 2009 shortly after waking from a coma. Inset: Training for London Marathon April 2019.
Yesterday's 13.1 mile journey was harder than I'd expected. I battled with cramp, a blister on my foot, and almost had to stop just before the end as the muscles in my legs seemed to almost completely knot up. My stamina held up very well though, and I completed it in 2 hours and 45 minutes. Yesterday was an endurance that made me realise that I still have work to do, but that it is all very much within my grasp. Yesterday (12th December) was also the first anniversary of my mother passing away. Maybe she helped me along. Maybe she'll be there for me on the big day in April.
By running in the London Marathon 2019, I aim to raise a hefty sum of money for The Brain and Spine Foundation. They do great work for people who have been less fortunate than me. If you'd like to sponsor me, please visit my JustGiving page here:

The Books' Nick Zammuto Announces Debut LP as Zammuto
Published Jan 17, 2012Last year, the Books' singer/guitarist Nick Zammuto launched his own side-project, simply called Zammuto, and promised to record for "however long it takes" until he had a new LP. Well, he's now done, and will release his self-titled debut album on April 3 via Temporary Residence Ltd.
According to a press release, "Zammuto marks a deep reinvention of the highly detailed, genre-defying spirit that made seminal albums such as The Lemon of Pink and The Way Out possible."
For a taste of Zammuto's solo tunes, listen to the recent Idiom Wind EP at the bottom of this page. While these quirky, avant-garde tracks will doubtless appeal to fans of the songwriter's prior work, "The whispered, folksy vocals that became a trademark of the Books are for the most part shed in favour of an uncharacteristically confident, soaring delivery, often fuelled by a wide array of vocal effects."
A tracklisting and single have yet to emerge, but scroll past Idiom Wind and you can watch a making-of mini-doc by Naked Musicians at the bottom of the page.

30 thousand euros available to catering startups in Lisbon
Startup Lisboa is accepting applications for funding by new and up-and-coming catering companies
- 30 август 2019, 21:30
- Anton Stoyanov
Startup Lisboa has opened its 2nd ever edition of From Start to Table contest, which aims to support new catering businesses in the Portuguese capital. This year's contest has a prize pool of 30,000 euros. The contest has two main rules – the applying business must be no older than three years old and it must fit into one of the main categories of the competition – catering technology, new catering concepts and innovative food and beverages. A winner will be chosen in each of these separate sub-contests and will receive a share of 10,000 of the cash prize.
The contest is split into two phases. The first phase is the submission of applications. Interested parties have until 15 September to submit their documents on the Startup Lisboa website. After that, members of the company as well as experts, will assess which projects have the best odds of succeeding in the future. Starting 18 October, the selected applicants will be tasked with developing a prototype of their ideas and products over eight weeks. They will have the opportunity to work together with experts in the field as well as investors.
The From start to Table project enjoyed enormous success last year and Startup Lisboa hopes that this year's applicants will do even better.

Approximately at 12 O Eight
We did put an end to the 'Midnight Moment In College' wait….
From A to B, till the professors in charge
Everyone played a part in the immobile 'Chai Chai' march….
When the buses arrived, silence came out of it's dugout
Only to disappear again amidst the famous 'Ganapati Bappa Morya' shout….
The wheels began rolling down their way to Nashik
While we sang and danced over some all time favorite classics….
By 4 we reached our final stop
And left the block right at 7 o'clock….
For Mahindra&Mahindra and the other industries
It was surely one hell of a ride, with much fun and no miseries….
Next on board was something more crazy
It was the khandoba Tekadi where everyone posed for the paparazzi….
Back at our place, we waited for the customized dinner
What followed next is the one, I fear….
Should remain a secret. Yet I'd say
Hear it for one last time before burying them in your heart's Bay….
Up the floor was the 'No holds barred' Dare game
Which included acts that one would term lame….
And the same was happening down the floor
Where everyone was busy screwing other's snore….
By pillows, of course, that too under Pitbull's rhythm
Even the siren's noise couldn't stop the mayhem….
Him or Her didn't matter the most
For 5 it was when everyone forfeited to doze….
The morning came by
And went by in the same manner,bidding Goodbye….
By Noon, we were already at Sula Wines
For the first time at an entry spot, we had formed a straight line….
Amorous and lustrous it was, as expected
Even we followed the rule of 'No Testing', as said
But while leaving, the presence of bags in the empty hands
Spoke of a different story, sailing across the Sula's strands….
Finally the last page was scripted and stored in all possible memories
For when one Would recall them in near future, it will begin as Nashik Diaries….

All Adults Are the Protectors of All Children
listen to the INVISIBLE CHILDREN audiobook for free
Receive Free Friday KARA E Updates
As a new CASA guardian ad Litem volunteer I was stunned by the Prozac, Ritalin and other psychotropic medications prescribed to my seven, eight and nine year old State Ward children. About 1/3 of all state ward children (nationally) are forced onto psychotropic medications. Suicide is now the 2nd leading cause of death among 10 to 24 year olds.
Over 1 million children under 6 are prescribed psychiatric drugs in America today. In 2014, 20,000 one and two year old's were on Prozac like drugs & *Johnson & Johnson was fined billions of dollars for illegally selling those drugs to pediatricians for use on very young children…
The child psychiatrist working my child protection cases had hundreds of State Ward kids to watch over and no way to provide a consistent presence or adequate safety program to her clients. Not her fault. It's all about how this community values other peoples children.
20 years later, we are stuffing suicidal children overnight in emergency room beds because there are not enough mental health beds and staff to deal with them (and we wonder why kids cut themselves, stab schoolmates, punch teachers and attempt suicide). Suicide rates in Anoka County almost doubled from 1999 to 2015.
There are 1000 emergency psychiatric visits monthly at Hennepin Healthcare many of them children (a single metro hospital).
Multiple mental health facility closures at MN's rural hospitals, hospitals turning away mental health patients , dysfunctional group homes, communities refusing to allow mental health group homes and services in the neighborhood are exacerbating already serious troubleq we have facing this crisis.
The costs of crime & mental health disorders are horrendous – suicides from trauma and abuse are common and predictable.
These MPR short stories clearly articulate the sadness families face dealing with mental health crisis in my state of Minnesota.
It's time we embraced the problem with the intention of solving it.

Thank you so much my abortion was successful, Cytolog worked great with Mifeprex
Alyssa Carroll
I am 27 years old and I have 2 children. I and my husband were sure that we will have 2 children and that's it, but recently I found out that I got pregnant again. We had no other option than abortion. I was very sad about taking this step but I had to. I went to my family physician and she suggested me to take cytolog as I was just 3 weeks pregnant. After taking the pill as suggested I started bleeding and my abortion started. It was just a period of a few days where it felt like normal menstruation and that's all where it got ended.
After coming to know that I am pregnant, I was in shock and stress. I am just 22 and my concern was how will I face my family if they come to know that I am pregnant. My cousin was aware of this problem so she helped me out in finding out abortion pills. After doing research we found a Cytolog pill on this website and ordered it. Thank god the packed arrived in discreet packaging so no one came to know what was inside it. After taking the pills as advised by the customer service, I experienced severe cramping and bleeding. But after that, the process got completed at home with ease I felt like I m on my normal period. I have successfully completed the abortion thanks for your support.
Hi, I am Kathleen, 30 years old. At first, I would like to say thank you for delivering those abortion pills on time. Took the pill as per the doct guide and bleeding started within 3 hours. It was severe at the start but as the days past the bleeding became normal and now my procedure is completed.
Modesta M. Miller
After taking the cytolog pills I experienced cramping and bleeding and guess what my abortion process was completed with ease without involving any kind of surgery. I was told to take 4 pills of cytolog buccally by keeping it in the cheek pouches for 30 minutes so I took it in the same manner. Follow the instructions properly so that you can easily terminate the pregnancy as I did.
